Good afternoon, morning, evening or night. Good afternoon, morning, evening or... Good afternoon, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, this is the charm major podcast. This is episode 370 of the charm major podcast. I am James. I'm joined. with Jamie and Alex. We got high energy James this morning. This is fucking freezing. The window is cold in here.

Cold? I just got warm. I'm warm. Boy, take your fucking Clovis off then. You're multi-layers. I got two layers on. I got the under and I got the over. Then take the over of.

But it's just a... I could. It would look like I'm in my jammy jammies. In my tidy whitties. My tithy-whites. What are you? call it tidy whitties what are they what is it tidy white it's it's like it's a fong oh no it's not a foe is it whiteies or white whitties like because they're

whites yeah they're like um white's a bad color to water white no really yeah saying that i've never had white underwear i've never had white underwear outside of being like in year four wearing tidy widies i've not i never did I had some tidies for my little whitties why you call them tidy white Because Alex's were always tidies He never shat himself in them Lies Yeah, probably is lies

Like all underwear should be beige Bage, no, it should be brown Well no, beige covers pee and poop When you get that bit of piss-bibble When you're, no, this is what I really hate Is when you're at the urinal, you know You're sending at the urinal And you're like, you do the old tactic

Where you wriggle it a bit But then you go down Lift your testicles up because that drops loads of more piss. Oh, you've got to do that. If you don't do that, then you think of a disaster. You're dangerous, but then you wiggle your cock a bit more. And it's like, you're, everything's out.

Then you put it in and load shrivel out. It's like, what? What? You need to do some more caggles, my friend. Ceggles? Yeah. Don't you caggle and mew at the same time. What the fuck is caggle?

What's a cagull? The cagull is when you tense your, your, um, sexual part. I'm doing it when I'm not talking. You tend to your sex You tense your cock or pussy It's good for your bladder Or something And your ability to shoot semen

That's how that guy You like shot his semen Like a bus length That's length He'd been doing caggles for years You've been cagling and caggling and caggling Do you remember when we had that funny discussion When we were school about the Guinness World Record

Of the man The records this one guy has of the fastest nut and the longest distance nut. Right. And it's like, could nut on the ceiling. Wasn't there that guy in Japan who he got the world record for jerking off the longest, then he died? I don't think he died. He's alive.

His job is not is jerking off. He's edgy. It was like days and days and days. Yeah, wrong. Non-stop. I remember seeing a video. Yeah, the guy, his wife is like doing housework and he's literally just sat there jerking off. VR with VR one.

This man's going out with it. This was pre-VR. He just had like a little old-school TV. I was just jocking. Are you looking forward to the Apple Vision Gooners being like... No, it's already normal. No, but like accepted. Because we're in that stage right now where people are like early adopters.

That's crazy. That's wrong. We're in the like AirPods stage, you know? I'm never going to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bluetooth headphones. You look like an Android. I know everyone wears them.

You don't even think about it. And the VR, the goon. We, as a society, we are entering the goon escape era. We're halfway there. We are halfway there. We're like in the midpoint of the evolution, you know, we're getting that. And then we are just going to be... We're amphibious.

We're just going to be sat there gooning all day with VR. It's like you don't need real relationships. You can just goon with VR. Well, what you should be doing is gooning to JARCAST episode 370. Don't goon to JARCAST, please. Too late, bro. If someone's sitting there for an Apple Vision PR code... Just statistically.

Someone is gooning. to an episode before like straight up well you well yes because we know someone's fucked to jar someone's fucked to jar that's different to gooning someone's jerked off to jar that's fine though but these are different silos know what I'm saying so what you're saying if someone is a six a nine screen goon set up eight of them upon one of them's a jar cast does that count yes that does count kind of but it's that's also like it has to be the central one you're looking at it's like the over stimulation thing where it's like I'm gooning right now but I also need that little bit of

bandwidth I've got in the back of my mind for a podcast to be playing. Yeah, I don't want to feel like I'm wasting my time. Yeah, I've got to maximise this. Efficiency. I'm your host Alex, joined by Jim and James. Mea! Before we get too deep into the episode, let me shout out that Jammedia Patreon that makes the audio version possible.

And if you're a certain tier above, Dibby, I believe. You get your names read out in the first or second week. And sometimes there's some extras. Every now and again, there's little extras. There was last week I cut out about 15, 20 minutes of the cast that didn't float and... I can't even remember what I was talking about. I have no clue about anything I say on the car.

Tell me how you feel about this, but I quite like the idea of not on days like this, where we've got to do a two-in-one day, but that's we don't normally have to do that. I quite like the idea of like almost warming up 15, 20 minutes, say whatever, there's no, kind of like the old days, no structure, just whatever's on your mind for 20 minutes, clip that out,

put the warm up on Patreon as a little extra. I've done that a couple times. It probably won't be one for this week because of what I just said about having to do too. Be up busy. Yeah, get your Tim stickers and

all that and all this. And yeah, I'm feeling feeling pretty fresh. I'm pretty fresh. I'm glad to hear. You had a shower today. I had a bath. No, it's I had a bath already.

Well, because I was telling James, because I had the flu, and, like, it's really not me for a six. So, like, I'm getting up at, like, 5 a.m., basically, every day, making those seem just crazy long. It's like, I get up at 5 today, do some errands, do what I need to do. And I look at the watch or whatever, and it's like, oh, my gosh, it's like, half nine. Hmm. What am I going to do?

I have a two hour bus. I was like, yeah, I was feeling anxious. So I was like, you know what, I'm just going to run a bath. I'm going to make some. ginger tea and I'm just going to sit in the bath and read a book and that was awesome

I sit when I have a bath I like laying the bath and it'll be like Metal Gasolid lore or Eldron Wingle Yeah Just sit in there

No just laying there Consuming Yeah I like having a good Well because That thing you got me A few cringmases ago That thing you can put over the bath

Got my iPad Right If you got something good I like how Uniwanically It's become The best thing I've ever bought Alex

It's not It's not the 100 pound fucking bidet I bought that's in the corner. It's the fucking 15-quit tray of a Amazon that I've bought. Oh, you're constantly, bro. Like, watching Invincible in the bath? Oh, this is good. This is what I'm after. No, I just, I like looking in the bath and just looking at my legs.

I just fucking zonk out and look at my legs. So I've got nothing else to look at. I look at the mold rings on the ceiling while listening to the... Because the windows are open. I wear some toilet paper and I splat them on the ceiling. Yeah, yeah. That's a goodie I remember

When we were kids Just going outside one day And you were there With like a bucket of water And like multiple rolls of toilet paper And I was like What are you doing And you were just launching

Wet toilet paper At like the back wall of our house Yeah Yeah Aiming for your bedroom window Like trying to splatter on the window So then we just had like Toilet paper splattered on the walls for years

Yeah yeah This is a thing How did you get away with it? My parents would have fucking screamed to me. I would have timed it when, like, the parents went around or something. See, I never had ideas. I did it a couple times in the bathroom. Like, actually, not even outside.

Just straight out. Some Dennis the Menace stuff, yeah. Yeah. How did you discover that? Good question. I don't want to take the credit as a young lad. I must have, like, seen it. It would have been in the grotesque toilets at school.

Yeah, that would have been where I got the idea of secondary school. Yeah. Yeah, because they were like caked with all that kind of stuff. And there was that whole alleyway with the gum as well. The jelly. The jelly, jelly. It's like, I don't get, did they not realize how expensive those jelly crews were? Like nowadays, you're buying like a three pound pack of jelly and throwing it a ceiling.

How did kids then afford to go out and buy a pack of 70-p jelly? Wow, we go to the supermarket and spend 20p to get like a basics bar of chocolate. Yeah, like, well, yeah, one pound could get you like 10,000 calories. it is. And nowadays, do you remember the midget jams? 33p for a decent Is that, is that

put a pin in that because is that like the moment you're officially like old? Yep. When you're like talking about things used to be cheap. Back in my day, they used to have shilling

and three pence and sort of sixth pence. No, I don't like thinking about money because it depresses me on a pretty extreme level not just because, oh, houses are cheaper. It's like, no. The economy in general. No, no, Japanese cars are cheap.

Like imagine going out and then smashing a car up that's worth 50 grand And then buying another one the next day for 20p And then you do it again 50 grand now Yeah And it's just like imagine being in time when you can buy shit Japanese cars for nothing And it's like now I have this worth it's classic though You don't know how good it is to what's gone

I know I'm always going to be jealous of the people who are like mid-30s It's like you've got the good age shut up and you've got a house Go away I'm moody Uh Guys let's do some housekeeping him and there was some

normally I have a little peruse in the comments but after the sting controversy I was not even willing to look at the comments last week until collecting some of the replies from the comment section and rounding off some of those conversations

like this one from Shumalu 5801 No Sting or P.B. Magical how could you ruin the Sting saga? Jeld Dickerish replied to that saying, can't say I'm surprised that the elites would cancel such biting socio-political satire as the Sting Saga.

Benito said, we want Sting, we want Sting, Shibbeck says Sting joins a song of ice and fire and berserk as masterpieces that will never have an ending. Elijah says old Alex would have finished the quadrilegee, shake my head. Now, shaking my head. I'm just going to stop on that one for a second. First off, what are you talking about? What are you talking about? Old Alex?

Old Alex would have done something even more annoying. Don't kid yourself. Yeah. Are you joking? Yeah, that's a definite. I don't think Sting 2 ever would have come out. Yeah. What would have become like something else?

Yeah. Sting 1 part 2. Yeah. Yeah, it would have been that for a long time. B. Chase Vids 8133 says, New Jar Viewer, why are the titles and thumbnails always so random? Am I missing something?

James We don't go by the laws of YouTube We do not submit to the Lord Algo We do not submit to the god of YouTube We do our own thing We do stuff that doesn't get views We yeah exactly look You know we could probably double triple

The listeners if we just had like Sneaker in the thumbnail the next one If we have H3 drama In the thumbnail the next one Or anything like this, you know But we are men going our own way No, we're not, no, we're not We've always been aligned with the correct side of history

Exactly No, I would rather not be Okay, let's talk about H3 drama then So the latest in the H3 world is sort of I don't like drama Like I hate drama Like online drama Any kind of drama

Well yeah, I don't like it either No, because I work as someone who constantly talks about the news like news headlines and like all the things he sees online it's just like you're just all you do all day is talk about drama it's like I don't give a fuck I don't I would rather like watch a law video on Final Fantasy 15

than not watch anything to do with the news please drama I'm yeah she's a drama cat I'm a kind of like interpersonal drama but I get what you're saying about like being obsessed with depressing headlines and whatnot there have been times where I've had to like reel back from from the news yeah I'd say especially

the most nihilistic I've ever been like 2020 2021 2020 22 23 just that period um yeah no it is that was definitely more of like a duma like I'm a bit of a duma I am as everything tells me to be a pessimist but I live my life as an optimist I feel that's the only option. Yeah, no, everything is like, I generally think that the way media and news is structured is it's supposed to make you

a duma. It's supposed to make you angry, it's supposed to make you... Outwage. You scared? Yes. Yeah. And it's like the moment, it's like I remember being in a hotel, right in January, and it's just like, oh, let's watch TV on the news, and it was just like, oh, this is an in-depth story

about someone getting murdered, and it's really fucking gross, and it's like, so depressing. that's like, let's not watching this. This is just... It's too much info. It's too much. I just, it's like, I know that you've got to be realistic and understand that, you know, there's some shit in the world, but it's like, there's a point where you're just not doing

yourself any good. You just got a... Yeah, that's what I feel like it's the lie in there is that, like, we're kind of sold this idea that you are informed if you're reading the news, you know? But, like, there's this idea where, like, almost like a superiority thing, which is I read the news. I know what's going on. and if you don't read the news

then you're like somehow lesser or you're not connected or yeah I think especially now as well not knowing is considered like taboo not having a really strong stance on something

you know nothing about yeah yeah like if if if you were just totally uninformed didn't use any social media read any news like a bit of a hermit I suppose and you walk out and somehow get into a conversation about

x y or z whatever's trending at the time i think you would be perceived as less moral which i think is stupid it's really stupid my own personal thing view here is we might be more connected as a species but we should be less connected

you should be less connected to everything it's better for you as a person you aren't always going to be as depressed yeah i think for me you're not on any of the social media's are you happier since not using Twitter or Instagram

I don't think life is that simple I'm It's not like you don't use any social media You use YouTube a lot Yeah I use YouTube I only use YouTube Yeah YouTube's definitely my number one

For sure Yeah I like I like I like learning about Things I like I don't like being informed about things I have no power over because that's the biggest irony of it like

you can you can believe whatever you want to believe but it's kind of meaningless in the grand scheme like no morality plays into it because you have no control over that system like and there's also the layer of like this discussion is a waste of time because we can't even agree on the basic fundamentals of like reality like you can basically form your own worldview from like random sources you you pick yourself and well yeah uh yeah so everyone is wrong and right at the same time you know you just you can't fault someone for believing different things because they've been exposed to different that's truths the i can't remember which greek philosopher said it a wise man knows he knows nothing i feel like that's such a great foundation like don't

don't even like pretend that you like know the complicated sociopolitical dynamics of what's going on in the world, because you read an article, like, let's be real. Because you were told what to be by the robot. The algae rhythm from... Yeah. But then we're stuck in a place where, like, no one believes anything. Can't trust anything. All these, like, institutions, like, aren't trusted by anyone.

So it's, like, what even is... Don't, don't, don't. Wake up and, like, just eat some granola. Don't look at anything else. just eat some granola and go out your day. Wake up and fast because it's Ramadan. Just a couple more here. This one from seafood.

I watched a salmon getting skinned by a bear. Look to be in pain to me. Yeah. I agree. That was kind of my point. That was my point. We were talking about fish for some reason getting like sidelined. They probably don't feel pain, maybe.

Bugs and stuff. It's like. Well, I mean, they kind of act like things hurt, so to them things hurt. Yeah. Mm-hmm. You know. And everybody hurt. Finally, a gaming entity says, Alex, please read Dune.

The book and film are completely different. You saying Messiah is more political than the first book is wrong. The first book is a political drama. Deney changed that. And Messiah will also be changed. You would absolutely love the book. It's completely... It's a completely different experience.

Please at least give it a try. I know this sounds pretentious, but the Dune movies are basically Dune Light. There are so much more going on in the books than in the movies. They're way more philosophical and psychological. The movies simplify the characters, universe and story, remove most of the political intrigue and complex themes, as well as basically all the Death Note style, plans within plans within plans.

The movies are way more Star Wars-y than the book. The books are completely their own thing. I get this is a super dickhead thing to say, but the Dune movies aren't really proper adaptations. It's not really possible to properly adeptions. Dune into movies. It needs to be a TV show. It's like trying to adapt Game of Thrones into a movie. Read the book. The movies simplify everything so much. If you like the universe, you're doing yourself an enormous disservice by not reading it. The movies don't even go into stuff, into the AI stuff,

which is sort of the core of the universe in its story. It's also very easy to read if you aren't used to reading books because it's written more in a journalistic style because Frank Herbert was a journalist. I've been looking at a lot of reviews on Dune and it's just like I get this thing where it's like those people are like oh but it's not like the books it's like you can't adapt the books into a movie then he did a great job in actually making that shit palatable

to the wide audience and it's they'll never in no no timeline or there ever be an actual act of a Dune movie because Normies don't fucking want an actual Dune movie they don't want that it's pretty heady sci-pho yeah and Normies don't want that it's a miracle that the movie's

even succeeded in the first place unless we will then he did a great job actually make being like or how to actually make this likable. Yeah. I get where this fella's coming from. Yeah. He's not saying the films are bad. He's just saying it's not the books are they are something different. They are

something richer and you can only achieve certain things in that style of storytelling. But for me after the movies because my I'm awful with like names in particular and remembering names. Really

good with imagery and faces and remembering people's faces but as far as names I tried reading the dune book after part one came out read a few chapters and was like got a bit lost first I didn't understand I was like what's this like pro star what is why is it written this way because I didn't know about this

he was a journalist for the fact so the way it was written was like not jelling with me but now I feel like I have the basic like concepts and like all the nerdy ideas of like what a Benazerate is, you know, what all these different concepts are.

Well, you know, just all these details and just overlapping concepts and ecology and all this nonsense. I feel like I'd have a better chance reading it now. Yeah, because I was going to say, I seem to remember you did start

it at one point. Yeah, what I found, I'm just not very good at reading fiction. I just am better at reading nonfiction for some reason more interested I think it's kind of ironically what you were saying earlier was I like learning new info about the real world even if it is big overbearing systems I have no control over like I'm reading like a depressing book about Britain right now yeah but I like that kind of thing

Yeah, I don't know. I'll get around to it eventually. Because the sequels and, like, reading their plot outlines are like, oh, this is, this is, like, wacky. Frank went mad. And all the, like, planning where, like, you get these, like, crazy world-building payoffs by, like, book four that, like, was set up in the first book. It's like, oh, this is really cool, like, what you've done here. But, yeah. So I got a couple things.

first one and this is old this is old and almost unfortunate to be bringing back up but I made this connection recently and I feel like it's made some things make sense in my life

Madagascar we all know we all know what those movies have done to me how they've rotted me how they poisoned me how they poison me and I I thought this Madagascar thing was instilled from the 2006, seven movie, whatever the fuck, whenever it came out.

I thought it was instilled from that piece of shit film. But I remember something. Growing up on Jersey Island, we'd frequent Jersey Zoo. I happened to Google Jersey Zoo the other day and look through the website and whatnot. What do they specialize in? Madagascan animals. So we'd go and we'd see the Madagascar and animals multiple times a month in Jersey Zoo. planting the seeds, seeing the lemurs, seeing all the Madagascan animals.

I was sciopped. I was groomed by Jersey Zoo. Yeah. Into loving, mad. And I just wanted to tell you guys that. Yeah, but you know what's more important is Madagascan vanilla. Do you like that? Of course.

Good. But I didn't know about that to a bit later. Ah, that's a fucking bummer for you, bro. That's shit. There was that deleted scene working Julian feeds Mort some Madagascan. vanilla ice cream custard sorry I love vanilla

yeah so I thought that was pretty crazy pretty interesting well it kind of proves that we don't have choice oh please we're not getting into this I don't want to go over this

we don't have choice we do have choice just because you're and he's going to talk about free will for three hours just because your past decides your future and it creates who you are doesn't mean I'm living my day-to-day decided by what I've experienced prior yeah it does you have free will you are just who you are and your experiences make you who you are so and actually

that is a consideration how much choice do you have over your experiences nothing stopping me from sticking my finger up my ass but me okay do it right now I can't do one though I've got a poohy ass we're always gonna say that anyway exactly no there's not true. It's not true at all. Yeah, because you were, you were saying it in response to my stimulus. That you, you have for you will. You just are who you are. I'll tell you what I am. A very disturbed individual. I'm sorry, guys. I told you I had the flu, right?

Uh-huh. I'm lying in bed. Have you shat yourself? No, but I've puked to myself. quite a few times did you puke the bed no no but I had to do the old like I feel it building let's just put let's put the duvet light so it's not going to get in the way for when I know I'm going to have to launch yeah um yeah I made it to the bowl each time even had the horrible horrible dry heaves that's the worst bit I've never had dry heaves actually I did when I got pissed that one yeah yeah it sucks but anyway what am I talking about yeah I'm lying in bed trying to heal from the flu right from the man flu I don't know it put me in this

mood bro like nothing is scratching that itch for me I don't want to I don't want to do anything just the flu you know okay yeah I can't do anything so I open Disney Plus right no mate you know what's gonna put me to sleep let's just put family gone this shit's gonna put me to sleep I put it on I don't know if it's the flu or what? It was a funny episode. It was a funny fucking episode, bro.

I'm serious. And it was a modern one. Like, season 21, season 22 or something. I'm like, hold up. This ain't right. This ain't right. Did you watch more? So I watch more.

I watch more. I did fall asleep a couple times. So like I wake up and my iPads run out of battery and then I like recharge it and look. And it's like, I've watched like three seasons, like, in my sleep. Yep. So I'm probably going to be dreaming about that guy. But yeah, I thought I had to shout that out. Because I went from one episode of the Cleveland show, that was it.

And was like, like, this is, like, unwatchable. This is like impossible to sit through. And then think, like, oh, family guys, like, the same. No. What did you say masterpiece? The episode I watched was a masterpiece. I was like laughing like belly

I was like going in like it's like you know wanting to laugh at it yeah yeah like we will put that episode on like last year at some point and was like this is oh my God but I guess that's just that TikTok fucking yeah maybe now that all of our

like attention spans and accumulated brain rock has increased to such a degree that we can respect family guy for the ahead of the curve I guess it's almost like perfectly written in a way for when you're in like a disturbed state because like you can fall asleep

for 10 minutes and return and like it doesn't yeah it doesn't matter you know you don't need the context you know so it's kind of perfect for like if you're rapidly losing brain cells I guess yeah why I made a discovery because I a few months

back started watching family guy season one Wait, did you actually? Yeah. And in an early episode, Brian has to go to a dog show and he thinks it's demeaning. Right. And they mispronounce his name.

Brain. Calling brain. Oh, really? And I was like, wait, shit. That's our thing. Brain death scene. They're like it's in family guy law. That's one recurring gag that does get me is whenever they make Brian do something

that an actual dog would do. Yeah. That's kind of funny whenever they put that one out. He was a true. totally different character though originally he wasn't just Seth he wasn't just a self insert for Seth yeah yeah he was like a human dog

you know yeah an alcoholic human dog what's Peter's voice like in the OG is it like the same that's pretty similar yeah it's not like a homer thing no he's Seth McFarling kind of had that down from the get gay I believe you like

that was his first voice like when he was born that's his natural voice yeah yeah maybe even stewie yeah maybe he's like um the guy from that movie uh the the split James McAvoy yeah like the character yeah ah yes the beast he actually becomes them he becomes the beast yeah yeah the beast Bryant um and you um and you The other main thing I want to shout out, and it's another, like, just going back into the past, like, this shouldn't be happening. Been playing Destiny 2. I hear me out.

No. This is, now, the stuff that's happening at Bungee and Sony right now is crazy. Like, I'm hyped because all this stuff that's happening in the business side of things is like, oh, I know my, that last Destiny video is going to be so fucking juicy. good. I'm very confident in that. Um, I've like, I've already got docs and like right and building up because there's just so much like that's happened with this company. Like as far as like, uh, there was a recent Sony earnings call where the new interim CEO being very candid about bungee saying like, yeah, they basically take no responsibility for their budgets and like this whole situation is like crazy to me. They spent, I think it was like three billion bucks buying

bungee for their live service expertise and then that's completely falling through they've got no expertise and now sony has to run bungee basically they're hot and the whole idea was let's buy bungee so they can kind of lead this live service charge for our suite of new sony games yeah and it they don't know shit yeah oh my god i don't know how that happened how that much money was spent on that company because it was not worth it and it's honestly one of the greatest scams ever pulled in the fucking games industry is actually mad the money and all the people are leaving now the current director of destiny he's leaving

you know he's leaving the one of the head honcho guys is leaving it's like a disaster I think it goes to show the distance between people who play video games and like the companies making the decisions yeah make it's like you'd think even

at that high level where you're putting not hundreds of millions because like Sony they bought studios for hundreds of millions they bought insomniac for something like 50 million or something it was like a fraction of what they pay for bungee and no one's pre-ordering the final shape people are panicking

at the studio morale is extremely low there's so much pressure on the final shape doing well there's still months and months it's not out till summer there was like a reveal stream for this interim bit of panic content

they've like rushed together they've like rushed together a horde mode to release um in april um and that's supposed to be like their thing uh and they're like cutting prices to silver they're put in like ghost busters skins and shit in because sony owns ghostbusters and it's like we got a we got to get some fucking movement in this because how the fuck are we going to make three billion bucks from bungee like yeah how they don't have a destiny sequel in development they have marathon in development which they're weirdly confident in for some like and there are rumors now of them like panic shifting the design to be a hero shooter for marathon another it's like bro this is this is fucked yeah like they've been like a scrappy like panicky studio like this whole time they were that way

under Microsoft they were that way under Activision and now they're that way under Sony and like the big talking point is like what the fuck would have happened if Sony didn't buy them like yeah they've spent all that money like yeah shit i mean to sonia weirdly the saviors of it i i kind of feel like halo one two and three were accidents you know that they just got really lucky i mean it's not an accident like the story and law and stuff it was i get what you're saying it was the perfect I won't see who it is but I spoke to someone from the dev team

used to work at Munji and I asked him about this I was like so how with the original Halo trilogy how the hell did that come together like was were there less restrictions did they by phrase it like my impression is that the games industry

hadn't figured out quite how much money they could make from it yet so it was that perfect time where like they hadn't figured out the online past they hadn't figured out micro transactions or any of the stuff they had like map packs or whatever that was about as far as it went yeah um and he said yeah very much was way more scrappy teams were smaller and he described it as camelot he said that people like devs around that time said it was like camelot of like industry and design and it's just too big it's too bloated and there's too much money um being spent and made now yeah Dragon's dogma just came out and it's like full of micro transactions and they like sneak micros into Resident Evil games after the reviews have gone out. Yeah yeah that's a classic EA and Activision thing so I think there was there was something about that timeframe like early 2000s to the wild west 2009 where it's like yeah an emerging

young industry and it was like yeah Microsoft was funding them for a while and they were clashing and they got Halo 2 and 3 out of it. So something about that worked. But yeah. Yeah, it just feels like they... Like that line in Halo 3, like they were just riding on luck. Yeah.

For a while. And then destiny happens. And that luck was... They also had, like, Bungi in the early 2000s, like the the talent there was like really integrated and cool um yeah loads of really good talent i don't know like who's even there now like it's it's just so big so bloated so just like hundreds and hundreds of people that like work there now so what are you even doing and like the game i'll just briefly mention they added a uh like a hoverboard to their game which you get for free

taster linked to this event a timed event called guardian games with the whole idea it's the three classes all going against each other to see who can win the most points in order to be crowned the best class or whatever i've never played this event before but it happens every year and it's like notoriously scuffed every year as far as like them tracking because like hunters are like wait like everyone plays hunters they're the best in pvp they'd like always win so it was like pointless and boring and then they like change the weighting of things so then like titans won one year and then this year they're like tweak with it more and it all goes wrong and like the tracking's all fucked and it's like awful um like the quest sister i really want this hoverboard thing because it's

it'll be funny for footage and it's going to uh disappear at the end of this event unless you do the specific quest which has you either do it's around 200 nightfalls you've got to do um it's either that you've got to get a top 10% score on a nightfall which is impossible um at this point because all the people playing a score yeah they have like scoring systems in in nightfalls and whatnot and a nightfall is a like extra hard a strike with like skulls on basically yeah um or open three event packages which you can only get if you are the winning class and play a game in a specific game mode so I've done like 30 strikes probably and I've got like 200 out of 1,200 medallions needed to unlock it and it's like well so I just can't get it

then basically and like this sucks this fucking sucks and it's clearly only designed that ways to get you to play as much as possible like the people who are in are like I want that hoverboard thing yes and then you start and then you're like oh sunk and gosh fuck this This is mind games horror This sucks And it's really lame because like The hoverboard is broken Which is funny

Because you can just like fly around Like just miles in the air Because there's like a grind system If you click in the right stick You like grind But you just can fly So it just breaks some of the strikes It'll become a payable thing

Surely They will probably do that But I couldn't find one in the store I really don't want to buy one Obviously I couldn't find one But if that's an option I guess I'll have to do that

But I really don't want to buy silver Yeah Middle finger to them I think like Hell Divers coming out Goes to show how little You actually need to do In terms of live services

It's like And that's an ironic one as well Because Sony had no faith in that game Yeah Yeah And that's why it's so good Because they didn't Think that people would be into

And it's all over YouTube, it's all over like if you play video games and you use any social media, I'm sure your stuff's going to be filled. You can't avoid it, because it's become like a in the culture of video games it's become an icon immediately.

And what is the game really? It's, it's fun gameplay. Yeah, that's it. That's all it needed. People just like fighting hordes. Yeah, and it's like a galactic conquest so you kind of have involvement with the community in that regard.

I love what the community managers do on Twitter where they like tweet like in universe. Yeah, they're like role-playing. Right. They're like, oh, this is propaganda. There have been sightings of this new bug. It's clearly propaganda, like, this kind of thing. That's awesome.

I think they do the same thing with when they do updates. The patch notes are like in law. That's cool. Yeah. Things that are. that are changing yeah and this tiny studio a sequel to a game that like nobody's heard of

apart from like the the three guys that played it on vita yeah like it's the same game though it's just different perspective like the design is the same yeah yeah yeah well apparently it's like one to one basically yeah um and they restarted that game's development like halfway through what is it two yeah

it's been being made for like eight years years really yeah yeah yeah well it goes to show um the less you complicate stuff the more people are inclined to give it time i think it's not a chore you know it doesn't feel like i have to get on and put in a certain amount of time it's like when i have the time i'm gonna go on yeah because it's so successful it's like speaking of sony like in the movie universe they're all like micromanaging maranweb venom and all this shit and like oh that that lame animated spider man movies coming out oh that no one's going to care about that and then spiderverse comes out and it's like all right okay yeah yeah gets two sequels greenlit immediately yeah

oh we we have nothing to say about destiny all of my comments about destiny have been long said and you're just you're further abusing yourself by playing it, and you shouldn't play it. No. You know that's the truth. I don't know. That's the truth. I wouldn't stop now.

I've got to make the video, man. No, you, yeah, because you're going to make money from it. But destiny players... Well, yeah, that's part of what's so, like, shocking to me. Because obviously, you see a bunch of, like, different players in the tower, and I'll look at their gear and whatnot and, like, their scores of things. I'm like, bro, you were, like, if you've been playing this, the whole time, like, I used to play it for, like, the two or three years I played Destiny 1.

But you stayed at that intensity for nearly. a decade where I don't know how that's even possible like it's crazy if you're gonna invest them out of that amount of time just go play a fucking MMO

you'd get more content well that's kind of what they sold on like an MMO light that's always what it's been sold us and then if you're sinking your time in an MMO like you might as well sink your time into a natural MMO yeah I don't know man

more community baby well we'll see after these messages Buy bear bear buy bear I do declare buy bear bear bear bear Bear bear shirts and mug available now check the description below good morning skinna zina whoina nana nu unna new unna new unna nua una nuya hii hii ohia can you do that Hey!

Welcome to the second half of the castle. We head over to the Jail Media subreddit and answer questions that people leave. The first question is from Jamie. Yeah, what's your question, bro? How are you? I'm... I got Rio, bro. Really?

No. Oh. Woo! That was a full story there. You know, if you go to Central of London, you can go to a shop that sells sweets and they sell dabbies. Bro, everywhere sells dobbies. Yeah, but why? Bro, Harry Potter in Britain, like...

Honestly, honestly, honestly, if I could go back and change anything, it'd be to murder J.K. Wally. Have all people they've ever lived? Yeah, yeah, because then I don't... Our country doesn't have to be cursed if Harry Potter. No, I've no interest. Never heard. I remember liking the book smells good. That's because you're a muggle.

Ooh. You mud blood. Oh! miniature runny can get us going here kind of spinning it back to the beginning there with the

ticu ticu the pure misery fellow jarlings I bring to you a sting spiracy with the abrupt and current cancellation of Sting Part 4

that internal JAR timeline makes no sense the announcement came after a full week of production more than enough time for the commonly required reshoots

I believe JAR has filmed and edited Sting Part 4 but aren't releasing it as a part of their tax write-off scheme with Alex mentioning the economy

in episode 369 and how rushed the episode as a whole felt, I think JAR is scrambling to maintain their output despite the increasing decline in quality of these big bloated franchises. Sting Part 4 would have been the Avengers Endgame of Jha and we are being robbed of what we as an audience deserve. Release. Sting Part 4. And Timothy Mark 96 replied to that.

Listen here, Buster. Sting Part 4 is dead. Get it through your thick little skull. It's never coming out. And I for one am pleased. I don't want to see another sloppily edited shit show like Sting Part 2 or 3 as long as I goddamn live. Now you listen here, buddy. Oh, that's right.

You can't because the sound mixing is so horrendously shit that I can't hear a fucking word being spoken under all that elevator music. No, no. I will not stand for more shovelware-esque slop being crammed into our eyeballs by these jar hacks until they release the James cut of Sting Part 2. It's out there, I know it. I'm boycotting Jarl Media for the next six days as a protest. James Cut, now! I like how they're just describing every episode of JARCast since episode 1.

Looks like Sting's really gotten stung. Yeah, consider yourself stung, I suppose. Yeah, that's on you, that's not on us. You just got stung. Yeah. Sting this. I think, um, assuming we have the, the, like, None of us get final cut.

Well, no. But the know how to dodge taxes. Oh, right, yeah, yeah. I know how to do that. You know how to do that. Yeah, we just ask our friend, Jimmy Carr, who is going to be on the next episode?

Yep. Jimmy Car, on Jarr. Jimmy Jarre. Oh, oh, oh. A little sneak preview. Vjano Pizza says If you each had to name your hypothetical kids Something from Alex's dog name list

What would you go with? I wouldn't I'd kill the kid first No I'd kill your own child before you'd go with my awesome games If it was your names or killing my kid I'd have to kill my kids We got to pick one that's hypothetical that's how they work Okay well sure Pippin poppin

That's a good new one Is that? Yeah I was gonna say Pippin and popping I'm gonna add that right now Pippin poppin. Oh, there's even more that I've forgotten that I added. I'm gonna go with a new one.

Las Lothia. That's what my child's called. Las Lothia. Las Beltman. Las Beltman. Las Beltman Lothia. I think Jim would go nasty ninch. Nast.

Nast or ninch. Yeah, I'll agree with that. Yeah. Does the person asking assume that we have memorized all of the... Yes. Yeah, they know that you have them all. I'm going to give James vociferous. vociferous house

that's pretty fire house vociferous I'm the house in high potter that just have AR-15s that we wage war finished George's sorrel has something for James here this is a chunky one

do I look like I have brain cells bro you've upset people with your Eva rebuild don't skip discussion I don't give a fuck Yeah? Yeah, just skip it. Okay, finish George.

I'm going to do what James says and I'm going to skip it. You can criticise me on my opinions but if I don't weed them they don't exist, baby. There was mostly, there were a few comments about it, but it was mostly about like... How much it sucks or something. I didn't know how to see... The thing that put me off big time was someone said about the CG. CG. No, the CG is actually pretty high quality.

I don't know the one about... If they think the C.G is bad, they've not seen... That's like the best part. It's like the... Yeah, beautiful, but anime's changed. Yeah, to... But... Cringy's...

You just know, the C.G and the Evangelion is a disgustingly good. If you think it's bad, then you've not seen most anime things. Because the C.G in anime is shit. That's what I'm saying, bro. But it's fine. You can still look at all that hand, that beautiful. So, when you watch, there's the Berserk trilogy of movies, and all of the fights in that are C.

and they're shit. But I still recommend it because the hand-drawn animation is perfect. There are bizarre movies? Yes, the Golden Age Trudder arc. Like different from the show? It's the same story.

Yes, the same arc. Oh, okay. But the movies are great. I've seen it. And people think they're like, James, the berserk movies are also shit. Yeah? I can't watch the actual show

because Alex has my Blue-Roe special edition. Mm. You know, I put it into my... I think it was my PlayStation. when you went borrowing it. And it just wouldn't play, some reasons. Did you put the disc in the white way? Oh, yeah.

I try it both ways. I think it's just that PlayStation. I've got to try it on my Xbox, I guess. Ooh, the Valis Syndrome says, hey, jar, boyos. If Gooning became an Olympic sport, which country do you think would take home to gold? In which country would... China.

And which country would come dead last. who has like the least access to the internet Myanmar North Korea They wouldn't be invited bro But when they say come dead last Does that mean they get the gold medal Do they come first surely then If it's a gooning competition

The country comes first The country that comes last comes first Yes Yes No I would generally say It's a paradox I don't want to say any No, I don't want to say anything that is like misrepresenting him, but trying, it would be

China because they've obviously got the biggest imbalance of women to men. So there was gooners, load of gooners in China. Yeah, yeah, I forgot about it. They're allowed to goon there because it might knock their social credit. No, you only, it only knocks your social credit if you come. No. You've got a knock down. They're training the Olympic gooners.

They are because obviously they're all watching these Twitch streams because that's a lot of way they do it. So you lose even more. social credit if you like look at Winnie the Poo rule 34 as well and then who would who would say who would win oh no well I think you most a lot of European countries would be up there yeah because they're all sexual deviant so they're clearly all gooning like what France yeah no funds they're not France yeah they're too busy having heart attacks we're meeting patries all day that's us it's me they're

fucking smoking and yeah they're staying slender from all that fucking. All the fucking and all the smoker. Yes, it's not going to be France. No, it'll be France. No, Germany. Germany's... That's what efficient for gaining.

They're all about, like... Okay, okay, yeah, sure. Okay, what about, um... Well, none of Scandinavia, because they're too depressed, because they don't get any sun. Um, Spain? You know, I reckon the UK would do pretty good.

But you would do pretty good, because we're also depressed. We would do pretty good, I think America would do well. America would do well. They're, um, pretty, pretty, pretty gooned they are pretty gooned

um society Africa probably not hmm maybe parts of Africa parts of Africa yeah South Africa what if what if like Saudi princes get to

oh shit they're gonna do well um no I don't think they're bill I think Middle Eastern elites will do pretty well depends what turns all they're gooning to I guess

will they be yeah yeah what are they like rules I mean, you just like the outlines of what the Olympic rule is here Yeah, because if it has to be kept to all things like legal Then they're not going to do too well Yeah, but if it's an open book Yeah, where's like Russia in this I don't think Russia's a gooning country

Yeah, they didn't really have a guna vibe They don't, they're too busy trying to survive the fucking wilderness Yeah They're too busy like going out on their lardom and like crashing bit of appearing on crash cams crash cam fish fighting bears yeah

they're just whipping up oh no well consider Japan would also be highly up there because they have some they have some of the most extreme gooners already

yeah if they're allowed to goon to hentai yeah and they got that whole like perfectionist mentality over there as well

so you can you know if they're gooning like proper no the Guinness World Record is they're already one They have. These motherfuckers.

They've got their gold medalist already. It's like surely Australia won't be higher up. They have, Australia, they're far too. They got the goonsax. They got the goonsax. They do. Yeah. Yeah, but they're party animals.

And that's why they've got the different kind of goon sacks. They wouldn't bother. Yeah. Too, like, sociable. Yeah. To sort of. What cultures do you think nut the most? West American, UK.

So I just search who had, like, which country fucks the most, right? Oh, no, because then, no. fucking and jerking off different. Yeah. But how would you get the stats on that? Just, I don't know. Yeah. Well, surely, no, the stats of that would be the country that consumes the most porn. Mm.

The most porn uses stats. That's the only way you'd be... But like, per... Per 100? Per capita, not... Per capita, yeah. Not just in general. No. Okay, should I Google it if Alice is Googling some...

The fuck statistic. Yeah, I searched... 20 countries that have the most... sex, right? Um, so you got India, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Belgium, Malaysia, Australia, per capita, United Kingdom, I don't know how they're breaking it now. United States, Portugal, Russia, Germany, China, Brazil, Mexico, Greece, Poland. Wait, are we above America? Like, we... We're like, we're number 13, uh, US is number 12, so we're like, right, arm and arm. Wait, so

There are three more Number three is Switzerland Number two Italy Number one Spain So I think Europe call was correct What in sex Yeah

Yeah Because see these porn op statistics They aren't Per capita And obviously naturally The UK and America just consume a lot of porn. But I also

find the statistics for the categories per men and women quite interesting. Oh yeah, they're well. Because Japan, Japanese is high on both. For men and women, you mean? For men and women. All right. Really? Yeah.

Right. Let's go. Let's do a couple more here then, for we wrap this guy up. Rip Fluid has one for you, Jim. Uh, just between you and me, you're killing Alex if he turns into a zombie, right? You know, I, I give you guys, I give anyone permission to kill me if I'm a zombie. Wouldn't you prefer to be, like, a slave? Like a zombie slave.

Like, Sean of the Dead, like, game a slave. What? Or, like, like. Sean of the Dead. Have you on, like, a treadmill generate, like. Mm, get the zombies on the treadmills, like hamsters. Look, sorry. I get that.

Yeah, like, it. Like a windmill It's in the last of us law That like you are still alive in there But you're like Yeah yeah Um Well no but this is

Well We kind of fire To be buried Yeah to be in like The sunken place And you're like Because those zombies Like fucking bucket

They run around They run around And do parkour and stuff Yeah I'd be like Get them Get that asshole Yeah

Well Timothy Mark 96 As a while ago you boys talked about starting Taking a multi-vitamin And how you really felt the improvement I was wondering if that's still the case And if so, which vitamin brand I've never felt any effects from them myself

I'm not the healthiest dog in the pound Then maybe you should just get healthier then So I'm interested in trying something They might actually work bear bear from Australia It doesn't work because you're in Australia And you've got sun and therefore are happy You get sun We don't

Which is a big one Because that's what I was going to suggest is like the D get that D man Especially if you're a Brit Anywhere that's overcast As James said in Scandinavia You get one hour of Sunday

You need that vitamin D I have not had vitamins in a while I've just went out I didn't buy anymore And I've not noticed a difference Yeah it's fake Vitamins aren't real The only vitamins you need

Is Lago and some cigarettes That's literally what you fucking need I could take a little concoction When I remember I got my magnesium I got my zinc I got my biotin I got my

See all I would say is just drink some ginger shots every now and again and that's usually fine. You're going to get the majority of the vitamins you need apart from D which you can only get from the sun from just like eating a balance diet. Yeah, make sure to eat flapchacks. I like McDonald's too much.

Just eat flapjacks. You've got oats. Doesn't it work where like you get like a big bar of Cadbury? Eat the whole thing and then you just have the vitamins so then it's like varied right? That's balanced Yeah You just have to have like a whole tub of vitamins

They can't act What I will say Vitamin Gummy is quite delicious Well they're also They're really annoying Because I wish they just made them Without the vitamins So I could eat loads

They just eat a fucking arrow No no they're They're more special They are more special I like eating them Because it's just like I eat one And I'm like I'll eat more

I just can't And it's like 6 pound for like 30 And it's like Yeah Most expensive way of eating gummies Yeah but also it makes you like really ill If you have too many vitamins No but the good thing is CBD gummies

Have vitamins in as well So I have those every night Just drink Red Bull They put vitamins in Red Bull Yeah They do Oat milk has a lot of vitamins There's like Valerium

In um Valerian root Yeah In Monster And Torrine and shit Whatever that is That'll save you just um drink water i guess that has minerals in drink water as well well it depends on your

the water of your local area if you're drinking tap water obviously the correct strats get your blood's done no don't do that you're faint what that's giving blood even then you probably won't faint i don't faint Oh weird Let's end on this one from No Scope 64 Nice How long do you go before replacing your tighty whitties Asking as a friend mentioned their timeline is in the years

Okay no this is the hell does that No this is the thing Okay this is the pop up under a etiquette form of man It's different for anyone else So we do, we have day one Day two, turning one okay cool you've got two days day number three

turn it turn inside out and do the same that's four minimum four days and you can get five days nice five yeah sideways you shimmy it so then you got one

the vip that's been on your side I interpreted it more like when you actually replace them wholesale like they're so as soon as they start whipping mine is when it gets the rip where your balls can fall through that's when I know no because they normally know

they normally They normally whip on the sides No, they always rip here for me They always rip here I've never had a pair of underwear Rip that Yeah so like I've had like a shower And then got to get dressed

And put my underwear on And like balls are just poking up What the fuck man Time to bin these guys Yeah That's some sponge bulb shit Write a song about it Like it looks so funny

I was like I kind of gotta take a picture of this But I didn't You know I had something About the thumbnail Check these bad boys I got the Star Wars Stormtro You know, I'm putting the mic down But no, they whip there

That's when you know they're gone They rip on the by the elastic Really, I've never had that happen Bro, you're wearing That's where they break Yeah, they break on the seam on the crotch What are you doing? With your underwear

What are you doing? How are you breaking them up After doing a shit? Pulling them up Maybe in my bunder, my balls They're just like so swollen Do you like squat? A lot. I guess you're sat on like a tiny chair. Like, I could see that.

Do you not pull your under? Do you like, do you like lay your underwear on your bed and like wiggle into them like a snake so you don't pull them up? I do one leg than the other and then I pull them up. No, you just, you just start sending them and you just pull them up. You reggie yourself in the process. Man, I want to be elastic. That doesn't happen, bro. I've destroyed underwear usually lasts. Like, if honestly, if you wear the same underwear, like scientifically if this were, I think an underwear would fall apart after untender had. days. 20 days? If you wore them

if you wore them 20 days like straight where they don't get a day or wearing the same pair without washing them at all No no washing them This is a hypothetical

They're clean They're saying you get 20 uses out of every pair of underwear Okay more like 60 I guess But they're gonna break Hundreds I've had the same Like underwear for ages now No

I haven't bought any in like Two years Yeah underwear is a constant thing it's a yeah pretty pretty but you want to wear really nice fresh clean nice new underwear well but I do wash them stop stop stop stop

you can't have this discussion without going into the nuances of what underwear because we all wear different kinds of underwear mine's got to be skin fucking tight I wear boxer briefs the ones that cling a bit more you know you want to be you want it to be like fucking juiced on like it's vacuumed

no that's horrible no no They get, like, when they get up in between, like... Do they don't get on... They don't do that. They don't. No, you need that, though, otherwise. You don't want friction burn. I'm not going to get friction.

What? You're from a chub rub in. Friction burn, like, on my balls. Like, your chub rub in. What? What? You know, your thighs. Rubbing together.

Yeah. What do you mean? Your thighs's rubbing together? Yeah. Oh, but my thighs don't rub together. I'm skinny. If I'm not, if I'm wearing like loose-ass boxes that go like down to here.

But what the fuck? What boxes are you wearing that go down to your knees? I'm not wearing, I have some of those for like, no, no, you want it to cut there. You want to be in line of your knob.

That's, that's the, no, not in line with knob because that's pretty much tidy witties. That's not, yeah, it is.

It comes to, like, my underwear's down to like here. And they're tight. But tightie witties don't stop there. They're way longer. No, No, Tidy Whitesies stop like up here.

They're like, yeah, like a borat, like. Oh, yeah, no, no, the boxes aren't like that, though. Boxers are way longer than that. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, I'm wearing boxers. I don't know wearing tightie whiteys, man. I'm not wearing a base of a man farm. That's what we're saying, dog.

The comfiest underwear is the loosest. No, I can't sleep for that. We've had this discussion about sleep. But if my cock is moving around. The comfiest is you got the tighter boxer briefs and then something loose over it, Then you have the shorts That's like prime Like in summer

No We're talking about just underwear In summer I will do Loose shorts With loose underwear Too risky bro Yeah that is risky I'm getting

I'm getting airflow I'm avoiding That's a risk reward there right there Yeah exactly This is the thing How do you get How sweat such a big thing For your cock region during the summer

Swamp Crotch I don't get that I do you do bro I don't know I've had it a few times if that it's not working I get worse swamp crotch

when driving driving that would be the leather seat though weren't it the leather seat but also like the position yeah you're kind of

yeah that's cramming everything together and yeah that's why you got to pull up hop out air out make it look sexy hop out the four door

little damn reference for everybody but I mean if the question is how often should you wash your underwear it wasn't it was replacing before replacing your tighty white well when they whip yeah when your balls fall through when you're pulling up and you hit a bit of a whip

and there's a bit of a hole straight in the bin nah yes well sometimes I like sometimes the hole will be form in there this has happened a couple times like on the grundle kind of zone and I'll be like you know go out of the shower getting dressed and I see the grundle hole and I'm like you know what

and then I like put my fingers in my grundle pussy and like rip and I'm like just and then I've been it you know um thank you for watching this episode of the John Meteor podcast we'll catch you next time keep your tidy wides clean

until the balls fall through You know,
