Starting point is 00:02:26 combines with housekeeping because He's definitely been keeping house Well, he's The house is going to need to clean After the state of things But someone said last episode In a comment
Starting point is 00:02:39 Yeah, yeah Gingan Goui Said This episode is diarrhea-flavored That episode wasn't This episode, however This episode is more more than diarrhea flavored.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Yeah. Last episode was like an essence of diarrhea. And this, this time, the weir is here. It's here. The rear is here. And one of us is out. Yeah. Out for the rear.
Starting point is 00:03:09 His rea is, is dire situation. Diabolical. Diabolical weir and he is, um, well, it's his day like four? Huh? Day four of, um, day three or four of, um, non-stop. Like, like leaving a tap on. Yeah, yeah. You forget to turn the tap on.
Starting point is 00:03:29 He looks pale. He's, he's like becoming hollowed. Yeah. His essence of life has been drained. Yeah, and is currently draining. Yeah. Into the toilet. So he's not here.
Starting point is 00:03:45 We don't know when he's going to be here. Send thoughts and prayers to, um, my dear brother. He had a salad. Make this clear. He had a salad. He, he had a salad. he dared to eat a salad. And this is his repercussions.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Yeah. Yeah. Meanwhile, you exist off of croissants and, like, dirt. Yeah. Dog's stomach. Yeah. Just go outside, eat some grass every so often. Vomit.
Starting point is 00:04:12 You're fine. Mm-hmm. Is vomit better than Ria? I... No. If I can't do vomiting, it's like... Vomiting is more painful, for sure. It's...
Starting point is 00:04:24 I can't do it. I just want to cry every time I even get close to vomiting. But we're, any day of the week. Because you just get it out and it's done. Well, clearly not. Clearly, not for him. Not for the quad day. But any normal human, it's like, oh, you know, one night and you're over.
Starting point is 00:04:42 But... Hmm. Depends. But, like, I've only had, like, weird once. If you were to either vomit every day or rear every day, the answer would be real, wouldn't it? Like, once a day. You had to either... or vomit?
Starting point is 00:04:56 Vomit, maybe. Really? Yeah. Because you don't have, isn't there's not as much cleaner. Imagine you have to wipe your diarrhea ass. Yeah. That is like a lot.
Starting point is 00:05:04 I imagine for you as well because you got hairy ass? Yeah, you're never ever going to be able to... Mm-hmm. You're never going to clean all that up. Yeah. You've got to have like a bath. Yeah. Bathe in the rear.
Starting point is 00:05:17 You just have to have like a perfectly shaven ass. Yeah. And that's probably not a good time. Mm. Might be useful in some ways, but otherwise, you just... What, shaving your ass? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:29 Yeah, I would never want to, like, use a razor down there, you know? If there's any way you get it spotless. Exactly. That's what I'm saying. That's why I would never do it. If I've had weird that bad, because surely, surely, no, if you, if you're on day of four of rear, surely you just do it, instead of wiping and clean, you just shave it all off, because then it's done, it's wanting and done.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Yeah. Maybe we should Now that we've come to this conclusion Ask Alex See what he thinks Next week If he's back He might not be
Starting point is 00:06:04 He might be Dead See I'm not Normally privy to the iPad Which Alex reads from It's a weird existence The iPad Yeah
Starting point is 00:06:18 But under us Like the beginning He's got Our names and then like a paragraph following our names of nicknames of nicknames and that you have like
Starting point is 00:06:32 a giant paragraph my stomach just made noises oh fuck this house might be contaminated but yeah you've got like a paragraph I've got a long sentence and then under both of them it just says Alex
Starting point is 00:06:48 he didn't write any nicknames himself no God, that's such a... He's got none for himself. Also, like, if he's not going to write any from himself. Why is he winning some for us? No, but why why does he need to write his own name? Is he going to forget? Maybe he's got dementia all along. He sometimes just needs to be reminded of his name. Yeah, let us know if diarrhea is a consequence of dementia.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Yeah. Any jar scientists, medical students, please let us know. Speaking of, um, brown, brown, brown, Bronwick Why do people have to have such difficult names? No, show me the name. Show me, I don't understand. No, I'm going to do it.
Starting point is 00:07:31 I'm going to do it and it's going to be good. You didn't need to get a better English result than me at second week's school. You don't need to be, you don't need to read to be good at English. Well, I can only read. Bronwyn Riley. Bronwyn.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Show me the name. Do you need my help? No, it says Bronwyn. Bronwyn Riley 967 Who said I'm a neuroscience jarling Oh
Starting point is 00:08:01 I'm partway through a PhD In neurophysiology Jesus Christ This guy's got some brains I've been listening to the cast since high school Loll That's crazy I think we can take some credit for that
Starting point is 00:08:15 That's all the diarrhoea conversations Have influenced their decisions on career path Yeah let's see how the brain can affect diarrhoea because it would explain Alex's constant thoughts about diarrhea He probably No, people don't get That we'd just be doing nothing
Starting point is 00:08:29 And Alex would just say We are building Di-Wea building It's like a constant part of his life Everything is like building towards Like this whole time It's come up to this This is the end game
Starting point is 00:08:42 Alex's end game Yeah All that we are conversation This is it The diarrhea is built Yeah you could say um but you said fainting twice in seven months could be normal but it depends on the severity and context really of course if you're worried talk to a doctor blah blah blah he said stay epic
Starting point is 00:09:05 um i i have actually thought about it since we had that conversation and there's like blood sugar levels or like well yeah there's so many things it could be you look up what can cause you to faint and it's just like i don't know you could stub your toe and just pass out but Um, have you gone to a doctor? I've tried. This is the state of, uh, the NHS in the UK, our national health service. What I would say, as I've said multiple times, is a private healthcare is doing now while you can. Yeah, but I, I don't want to support that industry.
Starting point is 00:09:42 You, but there's no way. Our government's failed the... Yeah, then if I got like a, a tumor or something, then so be it. You shouldn't have that attitude. Why? It's Boris's fault. Yeah, but Boris is okay. If you want to, you know, protest... Who?
Starting point is 00:10:05 Boris. It's a bit late for that, brev. Cliff Racer underscore said, unironically and unapologetically, glad to have rediscovered jar through shorts. I think that's awesome. that's exactly what we want that's the exact reason
Starting point is 00:10:24 we're you know yeah and I think sellouts I yeah I think I doubted the ability for our conversations to be compacted
Starting point is 00:10:39 in see I understood that that's how I got it is it knowing that what we talk about is so easy to adapt into a short I just never saw it in us You didn't see it Because we've been doing it We've been like doing that for so long
Starting point is 00:11:01 We've been shorts farming for years Before shorts were a thing We were short farming How were we short farming? Everything we did was like perfect for YouTube shorts But the technology wasn't there We were like Andrew Tate before Andrew Tate Yeah
Starting point is 00:11:16 You were allowed to say that without being demonetised I don't know to be fair I don't really know last one for housekeeping from atomic catacombs I won't read the whole comment
Starting point is 00:11:33 but I will say that he said that he specifically loves you I believe and I think I got that in the wrong whatever he's the Swindononite right The Swindonian? Yeah I'm sorry you're from Swindon
Starting point is 00:11:49 Yeah Much my condolences So shit oh But he's asking about The cinema that's closed down Yes the empire in Swindon is Yeah Is long gone
Starting point is 00:12:02 Apparently It wasn't like it was closing down It just suddenly had to be closed Yeah Like people had booked tickets Turning up to the cinema And it's just closed down Being turned away
Starting point is 00:12:14 Well not even that It was just like gone wiped off the face. Which is sad, because I've got good memories of that cinema. It was quite a nice one. You know, there's KFC bar. It was the best local cinema. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:25 And you had, um, thanking Bennings, it was like as a kid, you're going to Frankin Bennies. But apparently, like, franken bennies, which generally is quite a shit chain. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:12:33 But now their business is gone because of Empire. Yeah, well, everything around there, like, there's nothing in that area of Swenden. No. Apart from, like,
Starting point is 00:12:42 the ninth McDonald's. You'd go there for the, for the, and then you get care of your food. It's sad to see because it is a place in dire need of amenities and as Atomic Cascahame has mentioned, it's... Swindon is like... He saw us there, because we saw Avengers Endgame there.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Oh shit, yeah. Yeah. That's true. So it's a little nugget of... Jarl Law that's now... Dead. What we should do is we should buy it and make it the JAR IOL studio. you can walk into the foyer and there'll be drama
Starting point is 00:13:19 we can put the cinema screen on the floor yes and then we can be like what's up dudes we put the cinema on the floor and then we'll slowly destroy our content and make us nothing more than a husk of our former selves yeah they're in drama for that reason
Starting point is 00:13:38 are they yeah people hate them their new setup is like killed them well yeah too big of a grandiose for those who didn't catch on to our vague references they're kind of funny
Starting point is 00:13:53 yeah kind of funny games and I I used to listen to like all their podcasts and then Colomoriati left and that was like hmm they lost their main guy
Starting point is 00:14:07 yeah then then they kept going for a bit and they just kept growing and growing yeah they kept going and then it I find with a lot of podcasts and stuff when like the main people start disappearing
Starting point is 00:14:20 and they're like how much are fill in those spots exchanged for other people yeah it never really it was about these people and their interactions it wasn't about just the show existing for the sake of it existing
Starting point is 00:14:34 yes if you know if um Alex had diarrhea and then we got um wandy on it's not the same yeah it'd be just a bit of a husk of a podcast, you know? Yeah, because like his presence would make us
Starting point is 00:14:49 uncomfortable. Yep. You know, like we can't be our true selves amongst, like, some practically stranger. You know? You know? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. On the subject of wea.
Starting point is 00:15:09 I can feel something building, but... Do you think you've caught it from being in this house? souse, there's like an aroma. We don't see it, but you can, you breathe it in, you smell it. And it taints you. It's like a virus. Well, hmm, well,
Starting point is 00:15:27 I'm not feeling too reary. Not yet. Not you, you, you are more extreme than Alex in a few ways. Well, in terms of what? Indulgent, like over... Alex is pretty bad. In terms of what? Like, gooning. Like, going in on
Starting point is 00:15:45 like a whole bag of like share a size Malteseers. I've had my, my time doing that. I just, I don't know, I can't do it so much anymore. Alex, though. Yeah, he likes the old goon. I, I do not remember the goon when we bought like 24 crispy creams. Yeah. And we ate like eight in a day.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Yeah. Not just a day, we ate crispy cream donuts in like an evening. Yeah. Like, I would probably say within, within a, within an hour, I managed to donate of those bad boys. Yeah. And now...
Starting point is 00:16:19 Horrible feeling. Terrible. But, yeah. Yeah. They are yummy. Extremely. I didn't know they sold Dunkin' Donuts here. Where?
Starting point is 00:16:30 Co-com The Co-op. No, they won't be real, they will. No, they're genuine Dunkin' Donuts. They're not probably good. But they do sell Dunkin' Donuts. But they're called Dunkin' Donuts. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:43 They're so... that I associate Dunkin' Donuts. Don't tell me with The Simpsons. No, with like mini ring donuts that you can buy from like Sainsbury's with like a, you would dip them in like a drop of the sauce. Yeah, they're never in a bad, they're on a box. And you eat like two of them and they dry your mouth out. They were really, really.
Starting point is 00:17:06 Yeah. Like you, they like dehydrate you as much as Ria. explains it. They cause it and they dry you out ready for the weir. So your rear isn't too severe? Boom. I think
Starting point is 00:17:25 one last thing we'll do before going to the mid-break. I don't know how long we've been recording because... Like 15 minutes. Nah, come on. No, Jamie... No, this is a chunky thing. How is it? Our slash jar media
Starting point is 00:17:41 asked Our wedder asked Our underscore slash underscore jar media asked us That's no Alex's fake account
Starting point is 00:17:53 Come on Probably All of these Probably are He said I reckon it's been a while Since we've had a recent Watching
Starting point is 00:18:00 Listening playing discussion From the boys Oh I'm afraid you don't have The boys You have Boy Some boy
Starting point is 00:18:06 Boy You have two With an E Not boy with an S Boy with an A You have a minor amount of B-O-Y-E-S. Boy,
Starting point is 00:18:17 boys. No, no, we haven't had one of these in a while. No, we haven't. And I think one of the ones we've been joint playing, as of late, kind of got back into it almost, is a little nice, cute little indie game called Risk of Rain 2. Yeah, I was hoping you bring this up. I'm kind of gooned on it at the moment.
Starting point is 00:18:39 Yeah. Because we played it back in the day, you know, like. a year ago, if not more. I think it was more, like, two years ago. And, you know, there was a lot less content, a lot less for YRT, but, you know, they've constantly added to it over time. There's been, like, DLCs and whatnot. And jumping into it now, it's like, it's an instant hook.
Starting point is 00:18:57 It's called Perfect Difficulty. Yeah, really satisfying. Co-op, PVEE. Like, rogue, like, you know, you're just doing those ones. I think it's, it's on that level with Hades, where it's, it can be sort of your entry point to the genre of Rogueloak. Yeah, I'd never played a Vogelike before this
Starting point is 00:19:17 but playing it, I get it. Yeah. I really do. Yeah, there's that hook of like, you're chasing the high of just a good run. Yeah. And when you get that good one,
Starting point is 00:19:30 it's like, just the most fun shit. Yeah, we're really enjoying that. And the soundtrack is absolutely, it's great. Yeah, I love the graphic style. I love... It's just, it's kind of cute. It's a cute game. It is cute.
Starting point is 00:19:43 It's a cute, wholesome, family, fun game. Yeah. And it's quite easy. Like, it takes, there's a, there's a, like, a learning curve. But it is quite an easy game to just jump in and be like, okay, I get this. Yeah. Because there's no, failure isn't failure. No.
Starting point is 00:19:57 You know? Like, if, if failing is, like, I mean, more games should do this, really. But when you implement failure as more of a mechanic than, like, a roadblock. It feels less punishing, you know? Yeah, it's just like, oh, shit, I died. And then you sit there and you chicken. Yeah. You're just hyped all the time, and there's very little, like, downtime.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Yeah, there's barely any. You know, when you play, like, Cod now, you're sat there for about half the time you're playing. You're sat in lobbies and shit, wait. Or you're watching kill cams because they're artificially changing your damage to make you more addicted. Yeah, exactly. Like, it's just like old-school gaming. No bullshit, no money. microtransactions, you buy it, you pick it up, you play.
Starting point is 00:20:43 You get new characters by doing X or Y challenges in the game. Yeah, and skins and stuff, there's no packs and trash. It's this old-school game. Pure, it's great. Pure. It's essence. It's got that old-school gaming essence. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:21:00 It's great, and I would definitely recommend if you can get it on sale, just pick it up. It's pretty cheap as is. Yeah, and it's two gigabyte. You can win it on literally anything. besides I get 40 FPS sometimes but your PC is like 30 years old the PC I have is
Starting point is 00:21:17 is a beast like it is a beast it keeps on trucking I don't know how as it were like I hasn't it's like half the case is dismantled and I have a fan blowing into it
Starting point is 00:21:26 it's but it keeps working it just keeps going well yeah get your money's worth and I yeah for what I pay for that PC I've got my money's worth like eight quid yeah X editing PC been like abused all its life and I'm
Starting point is 00:21:41 not abusing it I'm giving it love I'm taking it little kisses on its um when it tries when it's trying to push that 50 frames yeah I'm going for 51 do it I can do it if you've watched any more interesting movies you've you're quite the movie goer
Starting point is 00:21:57 um well yeah this is like the great great like turn in jar law is uh going from being a bitch to being a person who actually enjoys movies A, um, sinophile. A synophobic. I don't like movies. Oh, you've come back.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Yeah, we've gone back. This is the E-turn. No, I've been watching... I kind of took a dip, because it's like with any hobby. You do it at a certain amount of time, you have a little bit of time off, and then you go back into it.
Starting point is 00:22:27 And I've kind of been on that with... With movies, but obviously recently, we watched Dead Reckoning Part 1. It's shown impossible. What are your thoughts on it? It's fire. It's, it...
Starting point is 00:22:40 I don't know if it's fair to say that I was kind of disappointed, but... I was, I know what you mean. It's only because the previous one was so... So, good. Yeah, like, 10 out of 10 good. Yeah. Masterpiece. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:56 So it's like, it's that, when you've got a peak that high, it doesn't matter what you're making, you know, games, like, cars, planes, whatever. If you're in the creative industry, following something that good, is impossible there's only a few who can do that yeah so it's nothing against it for not being as good but it did leave me a little bit disappointed well yeah it's it's kind of proof of um the the action sequel problem yeah marvels obviously always seen this and mission impossible that has it the clearest the like escalation of what has to happen in the movies for it to outdo the previous one
Starting point is 00:23:39 but I feel like they never they they never almost outdo it though because it's like it's all insane shit in its own way
Starting point is 00:23:48 obviously like the insane shit in fallout being the previous one is like that is so fucking insane but then you see look at like
Starting point is 00:23:58 rogue nation and then he's hanging off a plane where it's like also insane and they're climbing the Birch Khalifa also just like
Starting point is 00:24:06 ridiculous sprinting down the Burj Khalifa insane yeah and this new one has it has the the jump you know
Starting point is 00:24:14 no spoilers everyone's seen it's in all of marketing nutty it still does it does achieve that kind of
Starting point is 00:24:21 perfect like curve of like tension and action does escalate appropriately but that movie has a real good
Starting point is 00:24:29 like there's a massive peak in the middle yeah and it is it's not as break neck as fall out
Starting point is 00:24:36 it's it's it's not paced quite as tightly. And I found, for some reason, Fallout works on, like, an emotional level to me. Yeah. Like, it's, just all the performances, like, worked perfectly.
Starting point is 00:24:52 And I don't know, I really, like, actually cared for these characters suddenly in, like, a Mission Impossible movie, which was, like, what the hell? That, like, kind of, like, stakes at the end were, like, you could feel it more, where it was, like, they could actually, like, kill them. And then it was, like,
Starting point is 00:25:08 perfect amount of time each of them have had, like, in the story from, like, ghost vertical to that. Yeah. I think the, like, placement of the characters all being in this sort of danger zone, and they all kind of think... We've done a lot of impossible missions, but
Starting point is 00:25:24 this one just seems kind of ridiculous. What did I say that sounds like Siri? I hate this bitch. But at the same time, that movie perfectly managed the Ethan's, like, actual one weakness. So it ramps that up in the end and that's why
Starting point is 00:25:42 Fallout is what it is. Yeah, the stakes just keep rising. But Dead Reckoning doesn't, just doesn't have that. Yeah, and the impending doom is less like direct and in front of you. Yeah, no, that's the one thing. It's like the threat
Starting point is 00:25:56 is almost not a threat. Like the one thing about Fallout is it's like the most, it's the most easy understandable nuke. Yeah. Nuking, you know, water area. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:08 That no matter who it is, everyone can understand how fucking huge and dangerous that is. But like this one, the entity, it's like, I don't actually know why it's going to be dangerous, you know? It's more of like a potential danger. It's not dangerous yet, but it will be. Yeah. And for that, the stakes don't. It's more sort of espionagey in that way. But the stakes, you don't just get, you don't actually feel as tense for the stakes, because it's like you don't know what the stakes are.
Starting point is 00:26:36 Yeah. yes there's a big difference between saying like there's a bomb going off in five minutes and like if we don't get this something could happen yeah yeah something will happen down the line if we fail and like the consequences could be worse on the second thing but the lack of like immediate consequence tangible like stakes yeah i think it just makes it less impactful but all of that said it still rocks yeah like the i think the humor worked way more in the latest one? Yeah, yeah, because of like
Starting point is 00:27:16 Fallout being so like steaky, almost couldn't have that humour. It didn't, yeah, I don't remember that movie really making me laugh at any point, whereas the latest one, Dead Rackening? Yeah, Dead Racketing. I forget all the names. Um, yeah, the, the humour genuinely worked and like, it's easy to do now but actually just using
Starting point is 00:27:40 Tom Cruise running as a joke like it is a punchline to a joke in this film and it's like it's still it doesn't detract from the scene but it's just a funny little like yeah we get it you know and it's like can you have done the white way not the Marvel way
Starting point is 00:27:57 yeah yeah and I think that mainly is because you know the trio being like Benji Ethan and Luther they've been in so many of them now where you can really feel that charisma between them and the actual like the chemistry yeah yeah for sure like highly enjoyable like it's not a bad watch at all not at all now but it's nice to have an action movie that is an action movie yeah and it takes itself seriously when it needs to
Starting point is 00:28:25 yeah i'm sure i said that about fallout as well but it is just as true for this one it is absolutely it's like the one last like action like series where you know all those stunts that i proper. So the action movies aren't like that anymore. No. And there's no actual like movie star
Starting point is 00:28:43 and Tom Cruise is still doing that crazy shit. So it has that appeal. He's all we got left. He is. And well on the subject of the Mission Impossible, I've also since seeing
Starting point is 00:28:53 I've gone back and watched the last, well I've watched from three to Dead Reckoning. So I've gone back. I've watched Ghost Protocol Rogue Nation Fallout.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Watch Fallout we recently like yesterday. And then Mission Impossible 3 Great All of the recent ones in the last 10 years, great You do get that peak of fallout But Ghost Pose called being 2011 So that was 4
Starting point is 00:29:20 That's so close to being Fallout level Yeah It is really Probably the second best one By far I just saw it on Netflix one day A few years back and decided to watch it
Starting point is 00:29:35 And was like wow this That's the Brad Bird one, right? Yes. Yeah, really awesome film. Yeah. Yeah, really, really good. And then... It's a series that doesn't really get enough credit.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Yeah, it's almost like, just like, Oh, Mission Impossible, it's the action movie, but it's like the good action movie. Yeah, yeah. It's goofy, but not too goofy. It's like, cool, but a little bit... I'm not going to say the G word. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know what you mean?
Starting point is 00:30:08 But it's like, having watched, like, Mission Impossible 3 being 2006, so they did, I don't think they even knew how to make Mission Impossible different yet. Yeah. It didn't have, like, an identity. So, all the action stuff is, like, the most slocky fucking kind of predictable action stuff. But it had, like, little bits there where they kind of knew where the formula was. And I think that's why the follow-up was that fucking good. They were discovering the formula.
Starting point is 00:30:32 They were. And they found it in Ghost Protocol. Yeah, and that. movie, phenomenal. Having watched Road Red Nation, like the one after it, it's like Rogue Nation is such a dip. It's so not that great that it just makes...
Starting point is 00:30:45 Yeah, it kind of blew its load too early with the plane phone. Yeah, way too early. That's the bit you wanted to see. Yeah. And you wanted a lot of stuff to be riding on that. And then it happens right at the beginning and it's just like some side quest. Yeah, and then the whole
Starting point is 00:31:02 like underwater bit like impressive that Tom Cruise did that but it's like not nearly as interesting yeah yeah underwater stuff doesn't really do it for me in like video games or movies music's normally good though underwater music bum but dumm
Starting point is 00:31:21 but Mission Impossible movies great watch always recommend them they're just fine I can't speak for the first two I've not seen them I've not seen the John Rue one I saw the first one I'm not sure I'm my fucking Siri Shut the fuck up
Starting point is 00:31:36 It actually came up with the words saying Shut the fuck up and then it just I'm sorry No, she's done Oh fuck You've just upset GBT The entity
Starting point is 00:31:53 Oh no entity I'm sorry Did I ever mention I don't think I've actually talked about Howard did we ever talk about zombie films I think you did I think you did. I've obviously not seen any. That's the one thing I want you to watch is those films. Yeah and I want to. Because it's like
Starting point is 00:32:11 it's so perfect. You love Max Payne. Max Payne owes everything to John Roo Films. Yeah, yeah. It was directly inspired. By bullet... See, the thing with movies like this is that there's no easy way to access them. There is. But I mean, like
Starting point is 00:32:29 when I just want to watch a movie, I want to be able to go on one of the things I'm already paying money for and just access it. Which you can. One of them's on Amazon. You just got to buy it.
Starting point is 00:32:43 It's a micro-examination within the service. Yeah, I've seen, I guess I did mention that I was watching Hong Kong films and I've watched a fair few of them. You know, like I've seen Infernal Affairs being like the original departed but significantly better, hugely better. I've seen all the Woo films, I've seen a few others, but, like, you know, the Woo films are very good.
Starting point is 00:33:10 And if anyone can watch them, they should absolutely watch the Wu films, because they are just, like, the most extreme action. Yeah. The best action. There's, like, one shot in hard-boiled. It's like a one-shot scene. One of the best ever in cinematic history by, like, by such a mile, it's insane. But always, I'd actually recommend anyone to watch those films. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:33 I want to. My personal favourite was bullet in the head. Just like the movie he did before Hardboiled. And it's a Vietnam movie, but it's a gangster movie. It's like everything, but it's like really emotional. And it had me. It had me at the end. I was like crying.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Does it have the crazy action? Yeah. In Vietnam. So it's like another level of it. But really great. I have a soft spot for the Wu films. And I reckon you've got a pretty good gauge on what I like. I reckon I would like it
Starting point is 00:34:05 From everything you've said Alex liked it Like them Yeah Which says a lot Yeah So I I
Starting point is 00:34:12 I need to like Have a movie holiday or something Yeah Just a holiday in general To be fair Yeah true I'm a sleepy girl I'm a sleepy girl
Starting point is 00:34:23 I'm a sleepy girl He's a holiday I need a holiday too To be first It's like You look like you're in In on holiday Weddy
Starting point is 00:34:30 Yeah In Solomon in untrothed free or something tree. Sully. Sully. Did you say Sulliman? Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:34:42 I had no idea why that came to my mind. Suleiman. No, I need a holiday. It's like, I don't know. This is probably my most toxic, like, workplace opinion, and it's just, like, my view is, you want to get, you want to get to the end of June, having taken no holiday. Yeah, that is toxic A-F, but you haven't done that. This shit, I've had, like, one or two days this year. so far.
Starting point is 00:35:03 No, you've had more than that, bro. But the reason is, it's like, if you can get through that first six months of disgusting hell, cold and miserable shit, and then you've got to the last part of the year, you've got a fucking four months off of a holiday. There's a lot of holiday you can take off. You can really space it out.
Starting point is 00:35:20 So if you start getting to, like, August of no holiday, you can start taking, like, four-day weeks constantly. And that's good. When you're hitting, like, October, and it's like a four-day week every week. but then the problem there is you go back in January having done that for so long and then it's a full full week for so long and then it's like extra crushing yeah be a toxic my toxic um work well I mean I've kind of done a similar thing because I had a holiday in January I had one week off in May but I've got I've got like loads left I think I've got 10 days 10 15 days but I've got a few I've got like of Amsterdam
Starting point is 00:36:03 You know, the jar thing, the jar meme, Amsterdam, going to Amsterdam. You're not gonna. No, you say this. I am going. You said you weren't going. That's because I was going to go to Poland. I'm not going to Poland anymore. I couldn't afford the tickets. So I'm going to Amsterdam.
Starting point is 00:36:23 I'm going to Amsterdam for 10 days by myself. No, don't look at me... No. You can come. Why aren't you going with me to Amsterdam? We can do shrooms. No, I never want to see James on shrooms. That would be a scary man.
Starting point is 00:36:48 No, I'd probably be normal. It's when I've become like mostly, like, clean-cant normal. Okay, but what media have you watched were? What have you consumed as of late? Or have you, like, consumed nothing? I saw Barbie. Let us know. Share your whiz.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Um, I'll let you know after these messages. Meh-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-n-na-it-suck. Bye, bear-bear. Bye, bear-bear. I do declare buy bear bear bear-bear. Bear-bear shirts and mug available now. Check the description below. Uh oh
Starting point is 00:37:34 Welcome to The second half The Jamies your podcast Not talk to me about Barbie Um Entry level feminism Shit, fuck it Thank you
Starting point is 00:37:50 No, I've not seen it Um It's pretty funny Um Blind casting Perfect casting Yeah He
Starting point is 00:37:59 I knew he had a bit of a propensity to be goofy but I didn't know he could be this goofy ah I've seen a lot of the interviews of him behind the scenes and he's fucking funny yeah he's a funny man he's like he's seen all this mean
Starting point is 00:38:17 like stuff online about him and he's just kind of like he's embraced it to a certain level yeah but I wonder how many people are actually going to go see Barbie you know like
Starting point is 00:38:33 memes are dudes in like suits and stuff like rolling up to the barbie showing at 9pm or whatever and you think this is one for the ladies well definitely I went to see it in a patch cinema and I was a minority I would say I have I know a lot of people okay All the girls have been posting about watching it and none of the men have. Yeah. Yeah, it's...
Starting point is 00:39:10 I underestimated how big of a deal Barbie is. People love Barbie. Yeah, you wouldn't think so. And this movie's like... First of all, I don't think it would exist if not for the Lego movie.
Starting point is 00:39:28 That is a strong opinion, yeah. There was some like reference stuff. No, I don't... Yeah, the people who are like talking about going to see it, the guys, right? Yeah. Are they going to watch it? I think a lot of these people think it's like just a Barbie film, you know? Mm.
Starting point is 00:39:48 You know, like those animated Barbie films? Yeah. It's like just one of them, but live action, nah. This is, this movie is a deconstruction of what Barbie is, what Barbie means. So is it, is it really the, the, the, um, thing that can rival the deconstruction of Macca, I'm maybe. Is it the only? It opens with a giant Macca Barbie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:14 Stamping on babies. It's Damn. Yeah, that's how the The stuff I didn't like was like the movie references. There's like a Matrix reference. The movie opens with the same opening as 2001. Yeah, that's trying to be meta, but it's just cringe.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Yeah. I'm just so over everything doing this now. Yeah, weapons humor. It works more with like Lego, you know, because Lego has Batman. Lego has Superman, Spider-Man, all this various stuff, all these IPs that come under that branch. So like when Lego Batman is in the Lego movie, it's like, well, he's Lego. There is a Lego one of him. Yeah, so it makes sense.
Starting point is 00:41:04 There isn't like a Matrix Barbie, you know. They could be, maybe that could actually be right. Yeah. Maybe. Kianu Barbie. Um, but yeah. I'm glad you, I'm glad you watched it. I'm not going to watch it.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Yeah, I, I did get a little bit bored at the midpoint. And it was like, where's this going? and then it gets kind of strange, but then Ken isn't in like a sizable chunk it felt like he kind of vanishes to set up some future stuff
Starting point is 00:41:47 and I don't want to spoil anything but I'm glad the movie wasn't just like Barbie and Ken fall in love and that's the plot like that would have been boring as hell it went places I wasn't expecting I didn't look at all the advertising for Barbie that I saw
Starting point is 00:42:08 was the memes yeah that was the advertising which is genius because like I would have been pretty miserable just going to see the Barbie movie had I not related it to something
Starting point is 00:42:23 I actually find kind of funny but as a comedy it works enough. Yeah. As a musical. It had songs in it.
Starting point is 00:42:38 As a drama? Well, maybe not so much. Okay. Okay, I can picture it now. Yeah. I don't know. I'm glad it at least tried
Starting point is 00:42:54 to say something instead of a lot of a lot of, like, toy companies saw the Lego movie and they were like okay time to poo-poo out animated movies to mess produce the Chitlo movie or something the
Starting point is 00:43:09 fucking Megablox movie without getting like the point of the Lego movie was like this is what Lego is supposed to be you know it's like the what is Lego is this that's what the movie says
Starting point is 00:43:25 and I guess the question is what is Barbie it's like well Barbie is kind of this. I'll drag you along to watch Oppenheimer, the good one. Yeah, I actually want to see that. I want to see movies about bombs. Yeah, man things. Manly men, man.
Starting point is 00:43:44 You think I care about oppressed women? No. Women, they're not oppressed. They get movie about them. Yeah. How can you say women are oppressed? I bet you Margot Robbie got more money. Than can.
Starting point is 00:43:58 That's oppression. That is refreshing Jesus, bro we're laying it down today Yeah Okay This is the second half of the show Ordinarily where we go to
Starting point is 00:44:11 The Questions Reddit Where you lovely people can head over To our slash jar media Not the You slash R underscore JAR media I'm talking just straight R slash
Starting point is 00:44:29 jar media. And not half-snash f. Why should you even bring it up, dude? Well, I've got this one too. I got it. I got it. Um, so Squid's Ouddle. It's a serial killer here. Question for the jar lads.
Starting point is 00:44:50 What are your three favorite albums you've each listened to this past year? Oh, this past year is a difficult one, but I will, you know what? I'll shoot my shot into my Spotify and see what albums. The thing is, I don't really listen to albums. I do.
Starting point is 00:45:10 I'm not going to answer this question so much as albums from this year, but albums I've been listening to. Straight out the fucking bat. It's Freddy Gibbs album from last year. What is its name?
Starting point is 00:45:28 SSF. soul sold separately um yeah fun album unbelievably good is that it has his best song on it by like a considerable margin so that has been on with p um well sticking to like rap i've been listening to killer mike's michael i've not i've not i've not um listen to any of killer mike's new stuff it yeah it goes pretty hard i really like it it it's He, he, he, he's got some fire flows, dude. He's got some sick AF beats, my guy. Um, but, but, leaning away from rap, Kid A by Radiohead. I'm going to, came out a long time ago, 2000, 23 years ago.
Starting point is 00:46:29 a long time long time ago but damn I love this album I need to listen to Radiohead it's like weird and cerebral this album is less of their like indie rock leaning stuff and more into the
Starting point is 00:46:45 like reverberating like like just oppressive sort of disconjoined audio vomit that sounds
Starting point is 00:46:59 I like that. I like that. Yeah. I need to listen to you. I have meaning to listen to you. You should. I think you're you're edgy and quirky enough. I am actually edgy and maybe quirky enough for it. I would say so. Hmm. Um, and album number three. Hmm. Hmm. It's a bit of a toss-up. It's a bit of a tricky one. Because It wasn't until this year. Yeah. Although the album came out last year, this year, Mr. Morrell and the Big Steppers, Kendrick Lamar's latest debut. Beautiful. I've listened to it like twice, and it is... Ten out of ten album.
Starting point is 00:47:46 It's very good. Every time I listen to it, I like it more, you know? Because it didn't hit that hard for me the first time. It hit hardest for me the first time. Really? Yeah. So you've just got a better brain than me? I was almost disappointed at first.
Starting point is 00:48:03 Or talk about big stepers. Hello, baby. A little beautiful baby Billy just walked in. The big stepper. The big stepper just stepped in. Hey, dummy, though. But yeah, that Kendrick album, I need to go back and listen to it at some point, but it's still a very good album. And I'm going to have to be a bit different here.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Because I don't really listen to albums and as of late, as mentioned on the last cast, about SoundCloud. You know, I've been going into, like, you know, DJ sets. This actually ties into the second half of this question. Follow on for James. How do you go about finding new artists in such an obscure genre as jungle? Okay. Well, I will finish the Spotify one. And the other album I've listened to is the 2019 album by Plutonio called Sacrificio Sangue Lagrimus.
Starting point is 00:48:59 It's a Portuguese rapper. Very good album. And the other one would have to be, I think, published possibly, timeless by Goldie. One of the big albums from the 90s for, like, the jungle drama-based transition. Because you had LTJ doing his stuff and then you had Goldie. And that's kind of what spread the genre. So that was a really, really solid album. It's timeless.
Starting point is 00:49:28 So I definitely would definitely. recommend that but we've um the main reason I've been finding new artists recently is is for YouTube well um because there is a not jungle necessarily but there is a channel
Starting point is 00:49:42 called hall Berlin and they whole Berlin whole Berlin anyone has probably seen their the white room the white toilet room sets
Starting point is 00:49:55 that's how I found a lot of artists and I'm finding them I'm finding more of their sets and then finding people they've done with and they spywls because it's like if there's an artist you like who's co-lapped with someone it's very likely you might also like their stuff so it kind of like keeps
Starting point is 00:50:11 going on but my luck the lucky thing for jungle especially is that I knew someone in college he was a big junglist so he would just like send me multiple messages about check this one out and that's why I found like
Starting point is 00:50:27 Goldie groove wider and then through that I always knew of LTJ Bukam through just finding his stuff on Spotify and then I went on YouTube and I found his famous DJ sets logical progressions being a stellar one
Starting point is 00:50:45 and then it's like kind of carried on from there LTJ Bukam has unbelievable sets and you can find them on Spotify on YouTube but it's like if you want good jungle that is good jungle That is good shit And a lot of this you can't find on Spotify
Starting point is 00:51:02 Um No, because it's like there's like the um licensing Yeah Billy is currently trying to steal her cap feed Out of the box Oh they're all empty one She's trying to eat the empty ones. But yeah, no, with, like, some jungle stuff,
Starting point is 00:51:35 depending on the record company, some of their stuff is on YouTube, on Spotify, some others aren't. Yeah. Good looking records, which was LTJ Bookham's record label. Like that like it? Yeah, yeah. There's a playlist on there that details all of his artists
Starting point is 00:51:56 and all what they produced under that label. So you can find some really good stuff that. But it is like YouTube. Because the weird thing about YouTube, especially of music, is there's just like the most unbelievable passionate people who just upload shit from the 80s that they found on a casseple. It's all on YouTube and that's how you find it. Yeah, that's next level sort of...
Starting point is 00:52:19 I think if anyone is interested in... Gold digging. Yeah, in like finding old jungle. Um, there is a channel. I think I like jungle as a genre. Jungle is like, it's like, either way I see it is, um, it's good drama base. Yeah. Jungle is massive.
Starting point is 00:52:42 So there is a channel, um, it's got 9,000 subscribers, so this is quite me, um, small. And it's simply called Back in the Day jungle. And all it is, is recording some cassettes. And there's loads of really good shit on that. there. You can just go on there and you can instantly see like Groo Ryder's stuff, LGJ Buchum's stuff at X Nightclub. That's where you'll get
Starting point is 00:53:04 some really good shit. So you'd like find an artist there, you go through and you'll constantly get recommended that other sets. That's how you find really good stuff. That's what I've been doing. Here's LJ.J. Burcombe's recording called Heat. Really good. Really, really good.
Starting point is 00:53:22 So I definitely recommend that. I can talk about jungle for fucking hours. Yeah, it's one of, you've got, um, few, but very deep passions. Yeah, it's like, they're not, you have to be a gooner to enjoy them. Yeah, you can't, like, there's no way to enjoy old jungle without being, like, hyper-obsessed. There's no way, you can, you can't access it. Yeah, there's no way. Yeah, there's no way.
Starting point is 00:53:49 You've got to have, like, a gateway. Mm-hmm. And then, boom. Like, one of the, the early, not early, but one of the, the things that kind of really started this jungle like obsession is there was a simple YouTube video called SoundCloud Underground Jungle playlist and there's an anime girl on the picture
Starting point is 00:54:06 and I watched that and it was like this shit is this shit slaps and then boom I guess there is crossover between anime enjoyers and drum and bass enjoys Eurobeat you know your beat's got
Starting point is 00:54:24 nah no no no no no there's no overlap between. No, no, here's the overlap, right? I think it's like modern online weeaboos happen to kind of like jambos. But here's the direct overlap, I'm going to explain it to you. Wee, we're right. So, overlap.
Starting point is 00:54:41 Number one. Anime. Overlap. I know we talk this, I know I've said it a lot. I've said that I don't like anime, I don't watch it. I'm You are an anime fan. I've watched a lot of anime. I watch an anime.
Starting point is 00:54:54 you've watched an anime I watched one recently I should have brought it up in the thing what would you watch I watched again uh Princess Mononoke good movie and I've been listening to the soundtrack a lot phenomenal Jesus Christ
Starting point is 00:55:13 it's like just take take me there yeah I want to be in the woods you know with those monkey guys yeah the chimps or whatever they have chimps in Japan Yeah But I'm a weeb
Starting point is 00:55:28 It's like obvious It's like rebe You're an otaku No I wouldn't call myself an autarko Because it's like Like speaking and when you cross on a weave It's because they You know they think they know everything about Japan
Starting point is 00:55:40 So I'm a car guy Yeah And I happen to know a lot about Japan Because of car stuff And the way it is there This is the overlap to me I think car stuff With initial D in that
Starting point is 00:55:51 And in Japanese Japanese culture with like drifting being invented and stuff. There's an overlap there. Yeah, absolutely. Hence I own a Japanese car, you know. Exactly. It's the main thing in my life. And I associate a lot of car guys in the UK with drum and bass.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Yeah, yeah. Back in the day, you think the early 2000s, whenever with drum and bass, all the drum and bass ravers would have like modified pojos and sitches. Yeah, yeah. There is an overlap. I do get that. So I think that's the, that's how you can kind of. of connect the dots to get
Starting point is 00:56:25 jungle enjoyer, anime enjoyer. Cargai. Cargai? There has to be a trio. There has to be some mix. Yeah, it's the triforce of your personality. Yeah. And it's like I haven't watched anime in a while, but you know, I've been around
Starting point is 00:56:43 the wingers of anime. Hmm. You put your time in? I've put my time in and I still have finished. Why are you not on Otaki though? What's the difference between... No, no, Otaku's like, anime's it. That's their thing. You know, statues.
Starting point is 00:56:58 Okay. Because, I guess so. It's like being, that's your main passion is, is watching anime and the consumption of anime. But I guess that they're now called weeps in the West. Yeah. Just a weeb. Yeah. But I'm not webe because I just watch anime when I can be bothered.
Starting point is 00:57:16 But I, uh, I spend my time. Nissans. but I also feel that you can't be in you can't have my car without having to be somewhat of a weeb because I have to get information from Japanese websites I have to be able to know how to like browse them what have you done
Starting point is 00:57:40 nothing I just had a really interesting here we go I really want to ask this it kind of links to anime yeah part of it anyway what would you rather get tattooed on your back.
Starting point is 00:57:55 Deadpool fighting venom. Oh. Any Evangelion character. Evangelion. Or hashtag restore the Snyderverse. The mecks in Evangelion are characters.
Starting point is 00:58:11 Having a cool mecto is by far the best. It's got to be on your back. You can make an either mech look cool on your back. You can't make the Smiderverse or fucking Venom look cool. But you could do Snyderverse really tiny. well i guess it's got to be visible yeah you got it's a full back i think i think i would go for the evangelical character you can make them cool you can easily make a really cool make
Starting point is 00:58:33 tag have like coy fish and flit and like the yakuza inspired like evangelicalian tattoo let me see yeah yeah like how how liberally can you kind of change like the art style and stuff and keep it that character as well the thing is it's evangelian the big fucking the big cube that floats in the skies a character so you could just have a cube you could have the Evangelian cube the angel the angel the angel yeah okay
Starting point is 00:59:00 I'll do that then easy easy easy peasy this is a question for Alex because Alex would go for yeah Venom yeah fighting Deadpool lame um
Starting point is 00:59:13 should I ask a question for Alex yeah um from revert to monkey question for Alex is there any IHE video that you are most proud of maybe you put a lot of time into it or maybe it just flowed right out of the brain and came easily personally i think all of alex's destiny video is really good yeah i'm i'm most proud of those yeah i i i it's a fucking occasion when alex uploads a destiny video it's like
Starting point is 00:59:43 popping up the wine getting a nice meal in cracking it open in front of the big tv and watching it so that type of occasion video yeah they are occasion video it's the only way I keep up with destiny same yeah because naturally I'm not enough to play it in the first place beep that
Starting point is 01:00:06 well no but I've always slagged off destiny players because they're clearly victims they are victims they are victims they can't see it they're stopping syndrome to fuck to manipulation and financial abuse yeah literally
Starting point is 01:00:21 like And this is an ex-dark orbit and World of Tanks player. And I got out. They can get out, but they're gaslighting themselves starting to thinking it's worth staying. Shall I find more questions for Alex? Yeah, let's only answer questions for Alex. Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:39 Is Alex interested in playing Final Fantasy 16 since he played other entries in the series? Alex... Final Fantasy 16 is also largely developed by the people who made 14, which is probably the best live service out there. there at the moment Alex fucking hates final fun so he's never gonna play it
Starting point is 01:00:57 no no he said he hates all weeb shit Alex Alex doesn't even want to watch Evangelion then that's like all you need to know that's all she wrote
Starting point is 01:01:10 imagine complaining that that's not glass why should the back of your phone be because the Google pixel 7 11 I don't fucking know anymore the big fancy one has glass on the back yeah but the operate the actual
Starting point is 01:01:32 processors and shit in the phone is the same you're paying an extra 200 pound for the glass on the back what does the glass on the back do make it's glass on the back that's literally it's look it's just glass yeah but if you throw this on the floor guaranteed this won't explode yeah because my last one exploded because I feel it on the floor too hard

Starting point is 01:02:57 I have a story to tell. I went to a bar restaurant with a date yesterday. Did it go well? We took separate cars. So I listened to the latest cast in my car on the way back. On the way, sorry. I'm afraid of basically anything. But the way Alex described skibbiddy toilet had me fear.
Starting point is 01:03:19 for my life over the drive, I nearly cried. Okay, the date clearly didn't go well, ready. When I got there, we had to go to the bathroom so we went together. We're both girls, so it's not that weird. And I suddenly yelped and jumped up when I was about to pee when I thought of him. Oh, hello, woman. Hello, Skibody. My date got really worried and asked if I was okay.
Starting point is 01:03:47 I told her I got my finger stuck between the... between the toilet seat, which sounds stupid, but anything's better than I thought of skibbiddy toilet and got really scared. Thanks, Jha. I hope your date went well outside of that. Maybe get a grip. Scooed him up and boil them. No, I mean, listen, here's the thing. I'm a man who used to be, well, when I was afraid of toilets.
Starting point is 01:04:17 I'm a man who used to be very afraid of toilets Right I had a primal fear of toilets Okay For years When I was a child I wasn't a man at this stage of my life When I was a child I was
Starting point is 01:04:35 Mortally Afeared Of toilets What did that lead to, Jamie? Let me tell you Oh, no, come on, no I know this leads to, no I didn't shit for a week
Starting point is 01:04:54 And you're living with the repercussions now Exactly, my asshole Has become so strong Imagine Like, hmm How can I put this? I imagine a garbage truck
Starting point is 01:05:08 Right? Yeah That's been picking up garbage For months And not emptied right that machinery is going to give at some point you know yes what happens when it reaches critical mass explodes explosion are we talking Alex level Alex explosions or a different kind of explosion no I just do massive shits so don't be afraid of toilets because you will
Starting point is 01:05:44 regret it. I'm not afraid of toilets. I genuinely, the, the, the, I don't even want to say this. Just one night, really pissed on my face. And where am I, like, oh. Wait, what? Huh? You pissed on your face?
Starting point is 01:06:08 You pissed on your face? No, I didn't piss on my face. No, it's just like, you know, when it's just like, You're a bit pissed. Yeah. And you need the piss. Yeah. Being inside the house, you're like, I don't...
Starting point is 01:06:21 Like, the only bar from the moment is downstairs. Like, it's, you know, completely downstairs on the outhouse almost. Right. And I was pissed out my face and it's just like, in my monitor's there. My window is... My window is right. I don't want to the ledge of the window. Thence out, squat.
Starting point is 01:06:39 And piss out the window. Piss out the window. out the window while holding onto the window for balance because I was pissed when I was going to fall on my monitor I used to do that honestly it's the best I used to live in the top floor of my parents
Starting point is 01:06:54 it was three floors it was yeah first floor second floor and another memory just getting back so it meant because I lived up there, I had to go downstairs to go to the toilet. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:16 And sometimes it's like, nah. No, to be fair, that was the shortest journey. Very steep stairs. Yeah, okay, yeah. I've fallen down them a few times. We all have. Yeah, scary stairs. So I, if it was just a little piss, I'd be like, fuck it, I'm going to piss out the window.
Starting point is 01:07:35 Um, one time I did this. And, um... my mom was a smoker at the time and she turned into the back garden and I'd pissed out the window and then like two minutes go by I'm back in bed and I hear someone coming up the stairs
Starting point is 01:08:00 and I'm like uh oh and um she opens my door and she's like did you just pour something out your window And I was like No You're fucking pissed on it
Starting point is 01:08:16 Without She doesn't know to this day Ha ha ha ha Ha ha Ha ha Ha ha ha Ha ha ha The best thing is that
Starting point is 01:08:28 To me That's a beautiful lie You know Did you pour something Out the window No Still, it's the truth I didn't pour something
Starting point is 01:08:38 out the window You pissed out the window instead. I pissed out the window. It's different. What would you do if you actually told your mum at the time you were pissing? I don't know, but you know, it's like that, that, that image of, um, like, she found the piss drawer. Kids do lazy shit like that. Yeah. It's like, wait, I got a draw here, nothing in it. I'm pissing it. No, but no, but see, how, how did you position yourself to piss out the window? You just stand? Um, than aim high.
Starting point is 01:09:12 I'd have to like get on my tiptoes and kind of like lean against the window because my windows didn't open all that much. They didn't, yeah. So I had to kind of like poke my dick through the window and then like just hold it in position and...
Starting point is 01:09:27 See, because where mine is, it's like the window still is quite high up compared to the floor. So it's quite a large like jump. So I couldn't just like, I couldn't stand I had to get beyond the ledge. There was a really thin ledge and it was just like squatting down
Starting point is 01:09:40 with your hips out of the window in the most dodgy position and I just sound it really funny. It is funny. There's something, I think it's a masculine trait to enjoy pissing in places.
Starting point is 01:09:54 You know? Like when I have to pee on a walk in the woods, you know? It's like... There's something about it. It's like a nice moment. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:05 It's like when you're pissed. You piss more and then it's like more ways to pick. yeah because your brain will just be like do that yeah it's but yeah piss brain is like especially loves the piss maybe that's why they call it that yeah being pissed yeah there's funny piss story i'm sorry we ruined your male or your sex yeah not awful no bitches damn see there's there's another story here that is about a date with a girl
Starting point is 01:10:40 that I don't know if I should read it. Why is it just because I mentioned dating last time? That people are like, oh, let's look about date. Now that you've brought that up, um, Okay. Brave Walker has a little question. He said,
Starting point is 01:10:55 going off of what James shortly brought up in the intro about doing online dating, how do the jar boys feel about online dating in general? Is that the only way to do it? No. Grave Walker thinks it's very bizarre. So many people have to rely on online dating to find relationships. As talking and immediately going on dates with complete strangers isn't natural. But where else do you meet people?
Starting point is 01:11:24 Right? There's no sense of community anymore. No natural way to meet and develop organic relationships with people outside of school and work. It's hard not to feel atomized and reliant. on parasocial media. Very interesting perspective there. Well, when you go on these dating sites and whatnot, you just kind of message and you feel out the vibe
Starting point is 01:11:50 and then you go on a date and then that's when you start knowing each other and then it's like maybe you go on multiple dates and that's when it starts. It's still an organic natural way. It's just like the way you get there is maybe not so much. Yeah, it's the beginning sort of stage that's most different. um and much more up front than i think in history yeah because you know it it kind of used to be about like swathing your way in like a pub in in a pub or a nightclub i mean this stuff
Starting point is 01:12:24 obviously still happens um or or like anywhere i think that's that's where a lot of um sort of men's aggressively uh like flirtatious behavior comes from yeah it's like there wasn't a situation there wasn't a way for women to directly say i'm into you or not into you before like the swipe thing you know there's no there's no like oh i gotta figure out if this person is baseline attracted to me. Yeah, but swiping after a while, it's like baseline, you're good looking.
Starting point is 01:13:09 Yeah. Oh, they like you. Yeah. They like your vibe. You have really nice Moustache. Moustache. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:16 Loads. Yeah. Loads. Loads. Big loads. Big loads. I like this person's loads. Um, so swipe right.
Starting point is 01:13:27 Or whichever one it is. But, I mean, it's wrong to say, it can't happen naturally. No, it can absolutely happen naturally. Without the use of... Stimulants. Stimulants.
Starting point is 01:13:44 But I think... I don't really have an opinion on it. Yeah. It is what it is, really. It is what it is. It is what it is. Well, you've definitely used dating apps more than I have. how do you feel about it it is well it is as long as you're happy it doesn't really matter
Starting point is 01:14:10 yeah and because we're it's relatively young tech yeah dating apps have been a while now yeah dating websites and stuff but like there was a stigma before yeah that was like oh you guys met on a dating website yeah so you're the loser because you can't meet someone normally loser and now now the majority of people do yeah it's the norm via well you met in person fucking loser yeah i'm a fucking schlub who can't get bitches on tinder that's me sorry Nah, just like, just be fucking happy, isn't it? Yeah, I mean, do you want?
Starting point is 01:15:05 Yeah. I don't give a shit. The other alternative is finding that balance of being able to approach someone you find attractive and informing them that you would like to pursue something, even just to see the Barbie movie, perhaps. That's a good one. That's a good idea. You remind me of Barbie. Do you want to go see it?
Starting point is 01:15:32 Can I be your can? I could be your can. So, like, there's one free for the gentlemen and ladies out there on the prowl. But yeah, it's a very much a balancing act because if you're someone who's, like, quite overly repulsive, you might not succeed. Yeah, if you don't frighten people. Yeah, so it's very, it's very... Don't send them stuff by Andrew Tate, I guess. That's kind of probably not.
Starting point is 01:16:06 Yeah, yeah. Just, just be nice. Yeah. And, um... Reach yourself up. Yeah, get riszed up. Go to the Turkish barber. You know?
Starting point is 01:16:17 Yeah. Ask to borrow some Turkish Riz. Some... Some... I'm just, the gun cunted my fingernails is a really peculiar smell. Does it taste nice? Is it oil? It is oily in nature. I don't know what, though. Ow!
Starting point is 01:16:42 Billy is cute. I like cats. Should we stay on the dating thing? So we got another... What the fuck of... Yeah, if they want. Weirded up, Shorty. So, Bridge Walker, a crosser. I like that name. Good name. Has a little story for us. Tyja, went on a date with a girl that I met briefly, then talked on Instagram.
Starting point is 01:17:06 I picked her up from her friend's house, where she had been drinking the night before. When I picked her up at 11.30 a.m., she was drinking vodka, mixed with Pepsi in a can at 11.30 a.m. She suggested taking shots on a bus, which I did for some reason. We got something to eat, and then we went to some shops where she stole clothes, and CDs by ripping the tags off and stuffing it in her bag. I was so embarrassed and really worried that she would be caught and I would be banned from these places. Many of which she has actually been banned from, including Greggs.
Starting point is 01:17:48 How the fuck do you get banned from Greggs? Yeah. She ended up staying over after we had some drinks in a bar with her sister. We both got very drunk and she left in the afternoon to buy coke with a her friends who picked her up. I couldn't believe any of this happened. Despite all of this, I actually thought she was really nice, funny and easy to talk to. She had told me a lot of alarming things about her life, so it made sense why it had
Starting point is 01:18:16 affected her in this way, but I'm still torn. My question is, to what extent do you judge a person on their actions versus the content of their character? What I will say there is stealing from places is fine Stealing from Cavsons companies is great CDs where do you where who sells CDs Charity shops do you think stealing from charity shops is It could be like TK Max
Starting point is 01:18:43 TK Max TK Max does have CDs TK Max is a charity shop Oh classes in white there What I would say Maybe drinking that early in the morning is a bit of a red flag. Yeah. That like straight up,
Starting point is 01:18:57 red flag. Doing Coke, maybe it's a bit of a red flag too. Trying to do shots on a bus. Gonna say. That's just classic bus behavior, really, in the UK. Yeah, that's a bus behavior in the UK.
Starting point is 01:19:14 That's a green flag. Yeah. That's a red, white and blue flag. I would, like, I guess, if you got along with a well, it's probably maybe. be because of the alcohol.
Starting point is 01:19:27 Yeah. Because that moves up and slippery slopes like any awkwardness is like instantly gone. Yeah. It's liquid confidence. Yeah. But if you've noticed red flags this early and you can instantly tell the red flags then that's all you need to know and it's don't pursue it.
Starting point is 01:19:45 Yeah. Because like you can't expect to change someone else's behaviour and I would argue there isn't much of a difference between the contents of someone's character and their actions. What good is someone being lovely to everyone and saying really nice things and being cuddly and lovely but they've got a family of four chained up in their basement, you know? Yes. As, as, oh, what's her name?
Starting point is 01:20:21 Oh, oh, oh, what's her? her name. Tom Cruise's ex-wife. What's her name? I don't know. Fuck. Immediately. She was in Batman Begins.
Starting point is 01:20:32 And she says it's not who you are underneath. It's what you do that defines you. I would just say, if you've noticed I'd fly this early, then maybe. Yeah. Like, if I was going on a date thing. If I was going on a date and they were drinking alcohol at 11 o'clock, I'd be like, I can tell where this goes and I'm not interested.
Starting point is 01:20:52 Yeah. Because daytime drinking man Yeah It depends what you want from a relationship If you want like a crazy friend If you want problems always Maybe But otherwise
Starting point is 01:21:07 But otherwise if you want someone to settle down with And buy a cottage core Um House cottage Yeah maybe not And keep little sheep And have a cute dog And a little
Starting point is 01:21:22 Felix. But if you want to go out the blaze of glory, I guess, yeah. Yeah. The red flags are green flags. Yeah. Red flags are just
Starting point is 01:21:31 a perspective. Wow. Yeah. Do you know what my red flag is? What? Charmedia. Me too. What's your beige...
Starting point is 01:21:47 What's my... In your opinion, what's my beige flag? Um, your beige flag. Yeah. Do you know what the Bejama flag thing is? Yeah, yeah. Okay, good.
Starting point is 01:21:56 It's just like nothing. No, it's like something that's a bit like, but it's fine. Yeah, because it doesn't matter. Um, maybe the quantity of bread you eat. You know? It's like, what the? Who's that going to hurt? Me?
Starting point is 01:22:21 Yeah, you're like, gut. bacteria. Yeah. Other than that. Do you know what your beige flag is? What's my beige flag? Turning up late to everything always. That's not a beige flag.
Starting point is 01:22:31 No, it's to me because it's like, I'm not going to change it. I can't do anything about it, so I'm just like, whatever. The problem... I'm not always late to things, though. Apart from... I'm not... See, no, I'm the stupid one, because I've not adapted. I always get there on time exactly.
Starting point is 01:22:48 By the second. You get that early? No, I'm not on early. I'm always. is on time. Who was at the cafe first yesterday? No, no, I, no, this is jarred miscommunication. Because I said, I'm going to go there for 10 o'clock.
Starting point is 01:23:03 Yeah, you did say 10 o'clock, but I was there first. Then you, like, messaged me at like 20 past nine, like, why aren't you here? And I'm like, no, no, I was just like... You could turn off? Yeah, like, hurry up. I'm bored now. I'm here. And then I had to, like, walk out of bed, being a bit sloppy. I kind of function in like Autistic way
Starting point is 01:23:24 No I do stuff as it needs doing And instead of I'm very much Afraid of the future So I don't think about it You know You're afraid of the future
Starting point is 01:23:37 Yeah I think the future is terrifying And you know When your when your When your head is trying to think about What happens if I do this? Which multiverse Does it lead to? No no I don't think like that
Starting point is 01:23:50 No, the thing that you're thinking about could cause splits in the multiverse. Just do it. Just don't think about it and do it. No, but like... Don't think about anything you do, ever. That's what I'm saying. I try to do now. No, but don't stop yourself from doing things by thinking.
Starting point is 01:24:04 If there's a bad decision, you can make, make it. This is the opposite to what we were just saying to the person... No, that's different. No, that's different. We're not talking about dating. We're talking about just bad decisions. Like dating and alcohol. That was a bullet I dodged.
Starting point is 01:24:32 Yeah, you skirt, skirt, skirted out of there. We've already read this one, but I don't think I read the person, so I'm just going to ask it again. And it's a question for Alex from Mr. Blue Pumpkin. Is Alex interested in playing Final Fantasy 16? I really want to get to the bottom of this. No, he's not. Is he? No. What do we think?
Starting point is 01:24:53 No. Why? Because it's cringe. Um... Alex is too busy not making videos. Miniature Rani says the fear that skibbidi toilet imparts on Alex feels similar to the fear of the bear and lion from Telitubbies. For me, it's something about eyes and mouths appearing to move independently of one another. That really unknown.
Starting point is 01:25:20 me okay don't be afraid of toilets dumb bitch um skinny bottom bottom I'm gonna ask
Starting point is 01:25:32 one more question and this is from Mr. Blue Pumpkin um who says is Alex interested in playing

Seeing as you've slowed down releasing videos on IHE, do you think you will ever return to making I-H-H-H-insurgent general topic hit videos? Or will you stick to more specific things, like the Destiny videos, and your superhero movie reviews? I don't know. Ask Alex. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:41 Why do you ask that question when he's not here? Yeah. Jesus. Hango, go. Get out of here. Get out of here before I change my mind. Get out of here. Thank you all for watching this episode of the Jarm Media Podcast.
