Starting point is 00:00:00 5.4. 54.3.2.1. Go. We are water. Good afternoon, morning, evening, evening or night. Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Alex, and I am hosting episode 199C. The end of the 199 trilogy, as it were, here today. The best trilogy. That there is the voice of James. Yep. And on my far right, my brother, Jamie. C. C? This is one of those special 199 C kind of moods, you know.
Starting point is 00:00:41 C, we are all about the C's today. So the word of the day is C. You see? We're revolutionary. Before we get too deep into the show, I'd like to thank the patrons for supporting on Patreon. on. Yeah, ooh, yeah. We rely on you for your support and it helps us. It helps the train along the tracks, if you know what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Hopefully there's not a scary tunnel coming up. Oh dear, there's a scary tunnel. No. What's the scary tunnel? I just, I don't really like when the train goes into the tunnel. I love the bit. I love that bit. A lot of people like that bit, but for me, that's the whole world's coming, crashing down around me kind of feeling. No, it's like.
Starting point is 00:01:27 it's the wind when you go through and it's like suddenly like I love that feeling but I don't go on trains trains are kind of lame trains are kind of lame from James like trains from James the lane main we got some topics today we've we each actually have a topic we've done it who do we want to start with maybe we should go in um we can't go jar order because it's two jays and a no no Though we still can. J, J, A.
Starting point is 00:02:01 J, j, j, j, j. J. What do you think? What do you think? What are you feeling? Jha. Where should we begin? I think we should start with my one, because there isn't much substance to it.
Starting point is 00:02:14 As if there's any substance to any of ours, though. Let's be well. Okay, put yourself down then. Oh, no, I'm not on being funny. Join the generation of Zoomers putting themselves down constantly. Did you just say Zoomers? Huh? Define a Zoomer for me, because...
Starting point is 00:02:26 I don't know if I can... There's so many now There's Zuma Generation G The Zuma Generation C There's Boomer Zuma Coomer Duma
Starting point is 00:02:35 Which is a new one I've learned Duma Duma What's a Duma Um I think that's Doom and Gloomer Yeah
Starting point is 00:02:42 Like so is that well we are A Wicamorty fan Is it would be a Duma Right Right that's definitely me then What's like a 90s kid then Because that's probably what I am A generation
Starting point is 00:02:53 X X? No because that's Isn't that people born from 2000 onwards? No, that's a millennial. No, isn't that a Zuma? Yeah, that's a Zuma. Generation Z.
Starting point is 00:03:04 No, a millennial, because they were born in the new millennia. No, but they were also called Azumas. Yeah. For some reason. I'm lost. I guess we're all Zumas then. I'm not Zuma. No, the, the, like, thing, the slot, our formative years were the 2000s, really.
Starting point is 00:03:23 Yeah, the early 2000s. I, well, I might be. the age to be a Zuma, I grew up with things from the earlier generation. That's not true. I would say we're in the middle. We're in the middle of being 90s and Zumas. I suppose. But anyway, none of that is relevant because my topic is this.
Starting point is 00:03:47 I learned of something that I was doubtful of. Still I am, if I'm being honest. And I honestly need your guys' help. need the jarlings um who are absorbing this very you know voice into their ears right now i need their confirmation or something so apparently testicles have taste buds oh geez yeah i've heard this as well you've heard this um so the idea is apparently you can taste things through your balls somehow for whatever reason i don't know what biological uh explanation is is behind that one supposedly you can taste with your balls have you ever heard about this james this is completely new news
Starting point is 00:04:32 to me and i'm i'm in shock how do you know about it how do you know about this um well the first thing i saw was the tick tock of this dude saying apparently you can taste through your balls so i've got um like a jug of warm water full of sugar right so it'd be really sweet and then it just cuts to him after he's done it and he's like holy shit it works really just out of right yeah because I I was told about it and I was like no fuck am I
Starting point is 00:05:04 how could we have lived for so long and not been like how would it not be like on porn hub and shit like bald tasting tournaments and all sorts of stuff like that like how would we not know about it like if humans collectively are good at finding information on anything
Starting point is 00:05:19 it's stuff that our genitals are capable of right sounding you know putting things in your urethro How else would people, would there be a video of a man sticking his own penis in his palm? Exactly, yeah. We've, as a society, as a race, we've done it all. So you're telling me we've only just discovered you can taste with your balls, if you're joking. So, of course, I put it to the test.
Starting point is 00:05:46 I put it to the test. Like you said, the sugar water, that's exactly what I did. I got a glass of warm water, put some sugar in it, went into the bathroom, just stuffed my balls into the cup. and I waited there for a while and I was like right what's happening right now because is this a placebo thing is this like some grand scheme this like a fake article that's being spread by people
Starting point is 00:06:09 and it's just being mean to the point where everyone's just joking about it and I've just made a fool of myself just stuffing my balls in a glass full of warm sugary water it wasn't it didn't strike me but I was very trepidly about it and but but in the back of my mind i was like is that is something happening right now like i wasn't sure like am i going to taste it in my mouth or am i actually going to taste it with my
Starting point is 00:06:33 balls i don't understand because like what what can that possibly feel like you know like flavor like in our head is like in the mouth yeah exactly so the tongue has taste buds on it and that and it all starts from the tongue yeah so surely if your your balls have taste birds you'd feel it on your balls. Yeah, surely you'd feel it from the nuts. So how would you, you know, when your balls are in sugar that it's tasting sugar? How would you know that feeling in your balls? Because, oh yeah, it's a difficult thing to even...
Starting point is 00:07:07 Is this why that, um, I can't remember what the brand is called, but that's shower gel that's like mint. And you can't, you're not supposed to use your testicles on it or something. Well, when you do... I know the one you mean. When you do, your, your balls feel like freezing. Like, it's the same feeling as brushing your teeth. Dude, you're right. When, like, something really minty or, like, deep heat or something gets on your nuts, it's like...
Starting point is 00:07:29 What's that thing you're supposed to not put on your testicles because it's really painful and really hot? Deep heat. Yeah, that would be deep heat. Yeah, that's... They're like muscle, like, cream or whatever. Or toothpaste. Toothpaste. There's another one you don't put on your testicle.
Starting point is 00:07:40 That's really, I hadn't thought about that, because mint is an extremely strong flavor. Yeah. And you have, you get that cool, like, cold feeling. Yeah. Just like when you've brushed your teeth or eaten an after rate. so did did you taste sugary water
Starting point is 00:07:56 for your testicles I thought I could How much sugar did you use first of all? Um it was only a small glass about the size of one of these you know
Starting point is 00:08:05 mugs but and I used one heat teaspoon so maybe I didn't use enough yeah I reckon you should have used more yeah you want it to be really sugary you should taste it first
Starting point is 00:08:16 you should have tasted it first you know the taste No I did taste it and then I was like oh shit now like that sugary taste is in my mouth so I don't know if like that's going to conflict with my balls now or like
Starting point is 00:08:26 how does this work this is a new world we're entering right now but yeah the reason I'm bringing it up is because you know lots of people listen to the cast I want people to you know give it a try themselves in a safe you know environment report back and let us know
Starting point is 00:08:43 if it's BS or not or if it's just a placebo internet so what you're saying me to do is I'm going to go home get the peanut butter jar on my fridge done with testicles. No, I reckon just... A bit of warm water, not too hot, not too cold. We don't want to freak your nuts out.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Put a bit of sugar in there. Mix it away. But if everyone's done the sugar toast, we're only confirming the sugar works. We need more. Well, any brave jarlings out there that wants to venture down this rabbit hole, they are welcome,
Starting point is 00:09:08 and they can report back and we'll talk about it. But for now, we just need to figure out if there is any truth to this because I don't know. If this is true, like, every fact I've ever known might as well just be lies.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Okay, no, but surely... We need to go back to the drawing board on this one. When you have a bath and use like a bubble, like a, you know, a bath, I don't know, they would... Surely that, there's a flavour to that. Well, that's what I mean, like, lavender or something. Say you just went on, like, a really sweaty run and your nuts were, like, really... It was, like, swamp crotch. Would you not be, like, tasting the swamp crotch constantly?
Starting point is 00:09:41 Or is it a different type? This is what I mean, like... No, but you feel it in your balls. Yeah. They are... Yeah, you do, as a gentleman, you do have a... unique bond slash connection with your nuts like they are they're almost like a separate organism from you but and you care for them with such a you know delicate degree like their
Starting point is 00:10:01 little baby odors hanging down there you got to like cradle them you got to keep them clean you know i'm going to say i think this is uh bullshit because i know it's not i'm pretty sure it's it's factually true but whenever i've had like a bath like when i was younger i you all these that stuff I don't ever remember like a lavender taste because I was in my bath How come when you use soap on your balls It's not like
Starting point is 00:10:29 Because it might not They might have taste buds But they might be like Slightly different They might be evolved To They might be like Like say
Starting point is 00:10:39 If the taste buds in our mouth Are 100% like strength They could only be like 20% Or something maybe I don't know Because like what would the purpose be There's a point to taste for the food you're eating
Starting point is 00:10:51 so you know if things are like off or poisonous or whatever but your balls don't actually consume nutrients I remember reading why because there's taste buds in other places too
Starting point is 00:11:06 I can't remember where but like it's weird and it seems to make no sense yeah the more the more we discover about human body the freakier it all becomes we're all just like these weird mouldy creatures we're all just mouldy creatures
Starting point is 00:11:26 we're all just mouldy creatures so if we need to put this to death we need to find what what would you say is a really distinctive food that we'd instantly be able to identify if we were to put it on our testicles I think mint some sort of mint thing would be a good idea but mintyness on your nuts is quite intense I wouldn't start there I'd start with the sugar water and see so yeah if anyone knows
Starting point is 00:11:49 anything about this, any ball scientists out there want to leave a comment or on the Reddit thread or something? Go ahead. I like cinnamon, but I don't really want to dunk my nuts in cinnamon. Yeah, that was my topic anyway. I thought it was a fun one to get us going. Well, speaking of things that taste great, we went to Weather Spines and it was Alex's and I, Alex's and mine. It was your first experience. Spoons. Spoons? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Is Weather Spoons like a worldwide thing? I don't know if it's international or is it quite a British then. But what... Yeah, that makes sense. Sorry, go ahead. Weather spoons is this like, it's a chain of pubs, but it's hard to even call them pubs. Yeah. They're, every English person knows what Spoons is.
Starting point is 00:12:41 They're so fucking shit. They're ubiquitous with our culture. Well, I mean, we've always known of Weather Spoons. Of. We'd never been in one, but we knew what it was. Yeah. And it's like, it's, it's well known because it's like the place you go to on a night out before you actually go on the night out. Or like, you know, preys or whatever, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Because it's so cheap. You can buy the drinks, they are dead cheap. So it's really easy to get. That was the one positive I could take away from the experience was like. Well, apart from the fact, the one we went into, no draft drinks. Yeah. All of their taps weren't working, I guess. Every single one.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Not just one barrel, like Yeah, like everyone. Every single drink on tap was a no-no. So we could only go bottled, like, ciders, yeah. Cokes. Which was still cheap, so.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Really cheap. And I appreciate it, but they also sell food. What's a restaurant? It's a restaurant. And obviously, I've worked in recruiting for these places, and I know that it's not there's no ovens there's they they only thing they have is microwaves
Starting point is 00:13:52 all the food is done like from a packet into a microwave but the thing is like there is good microwavable food out there you know ready mills yeah there are some good ass ready mills if you know where to look yeah however um whichever ones they're using a weatherspoons uh like asda's basics or something they're more like I'm awful. Oh, Iceland. Because I, I, I, I, when I was younger, I went to Reverspoons quite often, it was like, oh, it's my birthday, let's go to Reverspoons, like, I was a fucking stupid kid, okay? And then recently I went back after like a 10 year, like, break from Weatherspoons.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Yeah. I went there in the morning of my parents, I bought a, a full English breakfast, which is like three pounds. It's like, unbelievably cheap. It's crazy cheap. And it's just like, oh, the sausage, you know, it's got everything. and it is like barely passable for the money it's just like this is okay and then i got pancakes and it's just like and i got pizza because they started adding like these fresh ready like yeah pizzas and the pizzas are just they're the best thing on the menu and they are bad
Starting point is 00:15:05 yeah so so when we went there in the evening you had an all-day breakfast a vegan one actually you had a vegetarian yeah let's let's um i really want to to paint like a detailed picture of this experience so before we talk about the food i want to describe what the the sort of mizon scene of the pub is like so you like walk in um this is the one in chippenham if anyone listening knows that the spoons in chippenum fairly nice building no problems with that you're just you're like oh it's a you know it's just a it's just a pub in it's just a pub whatever i more of a restaurant vibe than it yeah but you see the bar and you're like
Starting point is 00:15:49 oh no it looks like it doesn't look like ghetto or anything like that looks alright and then everything sort of started to fall apart like did you go sit down no one like no before we even got to the door it was falling apart because white on the door it said yeah oh there's no
Starting point is 00:16:04 oh yeah greeted by the sorry no no tap no on tap drinks available like a printed out piece of A4 then we go and we sit down and James informs us that you can acquire your beverages and food in weather spoons without actually interacting with anyone and you can just download an app and just buy on the app and then they just bring it over to you
Starting point is 00:16:27 so it's like first off it's kind of like defeating the entire point of like why pubs were so essential to like British culture for so long it's like you go up to the bar and you order a drink and like you're forced in the conversation nope it's like cut that part out of it so and then all the people that work there of course are just like really young teenagers that like don't give a fuck they do not give a single fuck yeah I don't know if we just got like someone on their last day or something or their first day yeah no because I've heard like some of the spoons in like the big cities and stuff
Starting point is 00:17:02 London and what they're just they're just nicer inherently more popular more people go there they've got more to prove there I suppose so they're you know chipping them so yeah once we sat down and we're just you know taking it all in a little bit we know no music no sort of quiet background music no nothing aside from this this what sounded like a ticking time bomb just in the kitchen somewhere just a do like just constantly and no one seemed to be like acknowledging it it wasn't quite if it was loud no it was like it really yeah it was like that loud and it was so loud that when you walked out of the building you could hear it from inside you know from outside um so yeah and then
Starting point is 00:17:46 Like, the more you look at it, the more you're noticing, like, lamps just, like, half off the wall and... When I last went there, the place is, it doesn't look like it gets cleaned ever. Like, there was tomato... Last time I went, there was one woolware, there was, like, thick splodges of tomato ketchup, just stuck on the walls. Rock solid that had obviously never been cleaned off. Handprints all over the windows. Like, the lamps, they are falling apart. The shades are, like, completely hanging off.
Starting point is 00:18:13 And it's just... It looks awful. really bad it's extremely characterless though yeah like all the personality's sapped yeah like well just think of other big chains like even Wagamama king and all of that Wagamamanandos they got more yeah when you walk into one of them like
Starting point is 00:18:33 although they are all the same they are clearly going for like a style yeah yeah whereas weather spoons is just like well they want it to be like a pub don't they they want it to feel like oh this is my local sort of thing don't know. But it's just like, it doesn't work, no. There's no character to make people like, for it to be their local. It's so dry of anything.
Starting point is 00:18:57 So we ordered the food, and as you were saying, yeah, we ordered food with the app, whatever. I ordered a, yeah, a vegan breakfast or something. A day vegan breakfast. Because I was honestly too frightened to order the meat because I didn't know what it might potentially. due to me as all. Jim got a delicious pasta dish. Chicken, was it a chicken? No, it was a pastel alfredo.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Yeah. With a posh name in a weather's alphi. It was new on the menu. Oh, really? And I went straight in and ordered the biggest pizza I could and chips. So we're all spending like a five reach, basically. Less than. So I can see the appeal in that sense.
Starting point is 00:19:46 If you're looking to save, cash, there is a value there. But what was just, like, mind-blowing to me? Was, I think you two, no, Jim got served his, and it was like, the person that came over, the waiter to serve, it was like a strange delivery of, like, food. Well, we'd noticed them sort of wandering around the restaurant before. Yeah, just to add, before you make the order, you have to select your table.
Starting point is 00:20:14 So surely the waiting staff should know, where the tables are yeah but anyway they they were walking around for a while and then like disappeared and then came back out and then came to the table and said you guys went for food yeah we're like yeah but like that wasn't her delivery was was very odd like I noticed it immediately like in her voice it was like when you're really trying not to laugh you know yeah it was it was like what like is that a question like what what are you actually like what is the vibe you're giving me right now like it was almost like i don't know if it was nervous laughter because like yeah i don't it was very very weird but i noticed the first time
Starting point is 00:20:58 was like i must have just been a one-off thing and then when they brought mine over she like almost couldn't speak because she was like laughing you know like she couldn't finish she couldn't speak properly because she was like laughing and i was like what the fuck is going on When this happened, Alex, I've never seen Alex break this much. He was sitting there just laughing for like five minutes. He'd stop and then just... It was actually mind-blowing.
Starting point is 00:21:27 No, because I was like... I've heard stories about Weatherspoons, and you're telling me the first time I come here and order something, the staff completely ignore you until they come over and they bring the food, the laughable food over while they laugh at you for buying it, basically. They're laughing at you, like, just pure embarrassment for everyone involved. I actually couldn't believe it
Starting point is 00:21:48 I was like so do you want me to not eat this do you want me to like complain like what the fuck like do you want for me right now it's such a weird like way like why would you ever train or let your staff get away with that kind of shit bizarre and then
Starting point is 00:22:03 you just you couldn't you couldn't stop laughing like even two minutes after you would just stop and then you'd laugh you'd burst out laughing again and then I was laughing and then people were staring at it like the worst thing was she had to come to the table three times for each of our orders. Yeah. So like
Starting point is 00:22:19 the first time there was a little bit of a laugh. The second time she was straight up laughing. Yeah. Yeah. And I'm putting the food on the table. Like laughing. Laughing like this is just, I'm sorry. It was almost like an apology. Because she knew like this ain't
Starting point is 00:22:35 fucking, this ain't anything like posture or nothing. You know what you're in for. Is it? You go have it. Fuck it. And then the but then weirdly the third time the final meal straight-faced yeah she was over it by then she's really tried on that one
Starting point is 00:22:51 but then I bought pudding which was awful and then she walked over and she basically just threw out me and then the cutlery went everywhere she just launched a spoon at you yeah it was like for them it was like we gotta get this over with
Starting point is 00:23:05 just as soon as possible like no dilly dally and they take the food gone like I don't want to have to interact or anything so funny it's like a mechanical like process so so strange so yeah i don't think i'd eat there again but i'd i'd drink there yeah the pizza was surprisingly bad but it's just like when you get like a 12 inch pizza for like four pound or whatever it's like that's okay yeah they must rely on you know people going getting pissed and then they get a bit hungry and then they just all and
Starting point is 00:23:35 like when you're that pissed like it really doesn't matter what you're eating so i i still i can still taste that pizza. I don't know. I must have put my balls on it or something, but I can still taste it and it's not a nice taste. I really, I'm kind of sick already. Yeah, I barely touched the
Starting point is 00:23:54 food I ordered. I wasn't even that hungry anyway. I was just sort of... I wanted to experience it. Mine was like... I mean, if I'd have paid any more than like 4 pound 50, I would have... I think I would have had to complain. No, but...
Starting point is 00:24:12 Yeah, if that was, like, priced at, like, six to seven pound, it would be like, this is, this is, this is, this is, like, genuinely stealing money from people. This is terrible. Yeah. Any other, uh, weather spins, uh, commentary? Don't go. Don't go there for food. Just don't waste your time going to other spoons. Unless you're getting pissed.
Starting point is 00:24:37 That's fine, then. Really cheap. Yeah, dog. Yeah, it's perfectly understandable. Um, there's something I want to address from last episode, actually, that was supposed to do up the front, but I forgot, but just remembered. Last episode, of course, was the Squash on the Rocks episode. Famous. Which a few jarlings actually, uh, you know, they gave it a try and they rung our praises for their squash on the rocks.
Starting point is 00:25:03 If you don't know what we're talking about, episode 1,99B, that one. But there was, there was a bit of confusion over what squash on. is um as as was my fear going into the episode i was like what if people don't have squash around the world because you know every jarcast ain't just rooted in the UK like i'm pretty sure everywhere has a squash equivalent and that's the thing yeah name but squash is a thing yeah like there there were multiple comments saying for like for a lot of the episode they thought we were just talking about like eggplant squash yeah because you know that's what a lot of people call it around the world.
Starting point is 00:25:40 No, eggplant sucks. Yeah. So I just wanted to clarify, how would you even describe it? It is kind of just... It's a cordial. Yeah. It's a really concentrated, fruity drink. You add water to to make a watery, fruity drink.
Starting point is 00:25:56 Yeah. Artificial juice. Yeah. Yeah. But people call it juice. It is juice. People do call it juice and it pisses me off. Yeah, we mentioned that last episode.
Starting point is 00:26:05 It is a crime to do that, yeah. So, yeah. and apparently some people like they simply cannot get juice in their country sorry squash no it got me done it now can't get they can probably get juice because you can't really make juice
Starting point is 00:26:20 you can't really make squash can you? No I don't believe this no there was like in the comments I'd have to go and look back but there were people saying man you really made me jealous because I wanted to try some no way I don't believe no everywhere
Starting point is 00:26:33 because what do kids drink kids have squash no I feel like in more like Americanized countries they've got that like powder do you remember like that our dad from New Zealand
Starting point is 00:26:45 is obsessed with this weird like powder drink Is it called Milo? Milo's that chocolate one Yeah No um Yeah that orange This is weird
Starting point is 00:26:55 This like Yeah and it's seen very American What's like there's an American one That's really famous I don't know what they are Is Kool-Aid Coolade sorry Is that like a powder
Starting point is 00:27:03 Yes Coolade But I would say Our squash is much nicer than those powders the powder stuff like is very hardcore we don't really have powder stuff hmm no yeah it might be honestly it might be illegal so so for a workground for the people with the powder so what you should do is you get the powder and you add like the the smallest amount of water you can before it's thick and then as long as there's a liquid put it on the wax and
Starting point is 00:27:33 you should have an equivalent squash on the wall it will be way worse you could try cool it on the rocks but just powder with ice yeah the powder would like stick to the ice cube then you like put the ice cube in your mouth hmm delicious it melts it into a flavour in your mouth that's an option
Starting point is 00:27:49 that's an option or yeah I've heard that a lot of people who you know drink those kind of powder drinks if they want like a more you know substantial hit they just sort of do a line of it and just
Starting point is 00:28:00 oh man it really hits them hard no don't don't remember that like everyone with like dumb kids would do shit like that like snort the dumb kid
Starting point is 00:28:12 is in the womb everyone tried it and that immediate regret those cocoa powder that's bad that I did it once I did so much of it my whole nose
Starting point is 00:28:24 just kind of turned into like a paste it was gross I don't know why I did it oh Christ on that note don't snort baking powder or cocoa
Starting point is 00:28:40 various powders especially not the pure white one don't do that one I'm sure of it flour the other one I did flour the Colombian special
Starting point is 00:28:49 don't do that one but yeah aside from you know squashes and shooting up powders up our noses we'll be back
Starting point is 00:28:58 for more funnies after the messages that are about to play in a moment do be da da da da da da da da you
Starting point is 00:29:10 oh okay don't fuck you I'd say this is the hardest part of doing the cast is trying to time that when the camera's gonna go up honestly no it's easy no sometimes we get it like spot on
Starting point is 00:29:25 and it's like yes like maybe one second either side no this is you're just shut up you're just one this is really easy that's because you're the one you just rely on us being like Okay, we'll interrupt you so we can stop it.
Starting point is 00:29:38 No, because if I'm not qualified to do that, so I let you do it. Yeah, so it's easy for you, that's what I just said. Exactly. Communism. Um, hello, this is me, Argi. Oh, you do realize that there are bebo shirts available, right? Take a look at the really cute shirts. Look in the description or under the video for more.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Welcome to the second half of the cast Where we head over to the JAR Media subreddit And we answer questions from the community Oh yes mate Peng I just realised because we're doing We're recording this mere hours before it's going live Which is something we're usually try and avoid
Starting point is 00:30:24 We're living life on the edge Yeah but because And it's all James's fault Yeah we could have done it yesterday but instead... Me too tired. Can we just snuggle up in what Star Wars?
Starting point is 00:30:38 We did watch Attack of the Clones. Instead of doing it in plenty of time yesterday we watched Attack the Clones and watched Jim play Outer Worlds for like two hours. Just a serial killer running around just killing every
Starting point is 00:30:51 MPC you could. Fine then. After Weatherspoons, obviously so that's why we didn't record because we were post-Weatherspoons. Yeah, all the life just sucked out of us. I still heard that beeping last night. Really?
Starting point is 00:31:08 Fucking beeping. Oh, the weather spoons beep. The weatherspoons beep. Please, actually, can some, any jarling, go to river spoons and see if there's a beep? We want to know if this is like a... Yeah, is this like a weather spoon thing? Yeah. So you always know that you're in the spoon.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Yeah, just let us know in the comments below. or send a direct message to Alex Okay, yeah Sorry, the delay there was simply because it's Monday So the new suggestion thread came in So I had to go find the one from last week Oh, schnitz, or... Don't worry, it's all fine there
Starting point is 00:31:47 Oh, is it, Alex? Oh, snap. This first one comes in from Angus Ass Invader Who says, hi fellas, I'm planning a trip to Swindon For the first time from Bath I'm excited because I've never been to a third world country before I have some questions for those who have been What jabs and vaccines do I need to protect me
Starting point is 00:32:06 From the disease ridden streets Everything Should I wear a hazmat suit or gas mask Both With nuclear filters You might need that as well Also my mum said I should be armed to deal with a feral mutant population Is this really necessary?
Starting point is 00:32:20 Yes Thanks Gary I will say my suggestion is Why would you leave Bath To go to Swindon I can't think of any If you're someone who lives in Bath Like, what does Swindon have that you don't there?
Starting point is 00:32:33 That wouldn't still be closer in Bristol? Yes. There's probably much nicer ones. I wouldn't know, because I've never been to one. I can't say I've been to a strip club in Bath. We should actually go to the one in Swindon just so we can do a cast if so they're going. Yeah. Book out, like, the private party room, and we'll do the cast in there.
Starting point is 00:32:54 I might vomit, but... The funny reply, though, from my balls are Richie. says ensure you're wearing your finest Adidas track suit in order to blend in with the local life forms you can wear other tracksuits too however that Adidas track suit has a level of classism and universal admiration in those parts yeah that's definitely yeah if you if you go for the track suit um routine make sure they're matching like that's the one thing it has to be matching like top and bottom make it like as gaudy as possible as well like make it bright green no you can just write like the the track suit bottoms and then just a normal top or jumper you don't need to go
Starting point is 00:33:30 full on. No, I'm saying if you really want to blend, if that's your goal. The matching trackie is kind of a Swindon staple in my mind anyway. Like matching, so they're both like Adidas but one's like bright purple the other's bright yellow.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Whatever, like on the colour we'll make sure they're not opposite each other. Make sure they clash as much as possible. So like green and white blue. Pink and blue shoes. Yeah. No, like Bright red trainers, yellow, track suit bottoms, purple top, something like that.
Starting point is 00:34:06 I've ordered Swindon. There's nothing there that you want to go to. There's a shopping centre that is quite nice. That's the best thing in Swindon. Magic Roundabout. Pointless going if you're not going to go look at that thing. The eighth wonder of the wild. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:22 But no, I think that the mechanisms involved in figuring out how to make something like that is more impressive than Great Wall of China. Because the design of Swindon was so fucked. They, like, designed it so all these roads, like, came together and, like, shit. How are we going to sort this out? Why don't we put, like, five roundabouts next to each other? It's, like, in a circle. It's, like, one roundabout, and then, like, six others around it.
Starting point is 00:34:44 In a roundabout. Imagine, like, you've learned how to drive. You've been driving for, like, 30 years. Like, pretty ordinary roads. And then you go to Swindon, and you see that. No, but it's worth adding that when we say roundabout, everyone knows a roundabout. Everyone knows a roundabout as, you know, an actual structure. It's like a mound.
Starting point is 00:35:04 They're not. It's a fucking car park. They're just driving in a random direction. It's the most intimidating thing as you're driving up to it. If you've never been through it, it's pretty hardcore. I try and keep to the edge because the edge is like easy to maneuver around the match around about. But it works. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:35:24 It undeniably works. We've been like at late night, we've jubes. through around the Magic Groundbite and it's right it's easier there's a there's a Swindon football club literally there and I went to watch a game once so you're talking like 10,000 people leaving the grounds with cars everywhere that showed me how insane the magic roundabout was because it worked in that there was cars everywhere it fucking worked and I was just like I wouldn't want to be in that roundabout because that looks stressful it's like a a masterful piece of human design yeah like pyramids forget about it
Starting point is 00:35:58 boring stupid a big toblower own anyone could do that yeah the great wall of china a wall a straight wall that's just long
Starting point is 00:36:08 yeah maybe if people were driving cars up and down the pyramids all day long there'll be something to it yeah yeah you know magic roundabouts actually accomplishing a task
Starting point is 00:36:15 every day saving it is an engineering masterpiece because it's not just pretty and beautiful and no quite the opposite to be honest
Starting point is 00:36:24 it's repugnant to look at yeah it's like cement occupant octopus as is all the swimming It works It does the job it needs to
Starting point is 00:36:32 And that's all it was designed for Yeah For those Just Google the magic roundabout swimming We've talked about the magic roundabout a lot It's one of the recurring themes But I don't get people People in foreign countries
Starting point is 00:36:44 When they think about England They mock the magic roundabout And it's just like they don't get it They've never been They cannot They don't understand how fucked the roads Are in this country In terms of the way it's all designed
Starting point is 00:36:56 But roundabouts are actually genius yeah like instead of having traffic lights at every single possible road where there's like another road being introduced yeah it uses the space race better we have to be way more cautious about the the space we're using it because like if you're in a if you're in america like you know miles you don't you don't need a round of bar because you can just build the roads you're kind of yeah they build everything on like a grid system don't they but we don't have that but in doing that they have traffic lights at every single junction.
Starting point is 00:37:28 They do. Yeah. And that's why there's accidents. It's going to be constant stop, start, stop, start, worse for the environment.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Roundabout, you just keep on going, basically. Like, you might have to slow down, stop. But then that's one that's one is coming up to an issue
Starting point is 00:37:43 because the English government and councils are putting in traffic lights on roundabouts. That's a thing now. Yeah, when it gets really busy. The roundabout,
Starting point is 00:37:53 though, like, it might as well just be a junction. Yeah. If there's traffic lights and there's three I want a game show Where They pluck people from places like America
Starting point is 00:38:08 That don't really have roundabouts in the same way And they put them on one side of the magic roundabout And you have to get to the other side On peak rush hour In Swindon and just see what happens That's a great idea We're a hardy folk here So for us at nothing but
Starting point is 00:38:25 it'll be like you know like you see pictures of like in Japan at Russia where the people are like sardined in and shit and it seems like the most terrifying thing it's kind of like that but for us the Olympics
Starting point is 00:38:40 it's you know it needs to just be the magic roundabout test to test like the intelligence of the countries is to just let them do the magic rounder man and see what happened dig the head has this to say what do you know what
Starting point is 00:38:55 What do you look back on with the most cringe or regret? Dubstep Park or two is not an acceptable answer. Probably dubstep park or won't. You weren't in it. Yeah, I was. That's a seminal video, dude. Don't should be shit on that video. Jesus, give me a goddamn break.
Starting point is 00:39:14 Commence. Cod one. The cod one is... No, let's choose something that isn't a video, because it's too easy. Like, we all could choose five each. Yeah, the Minecraft one. Um Um
Starting point is 00:39:27 Or don't Um I don't know if I should say my anime face You never left it Okay just because I said I started watching anime again yesterday Doesn't mean I didn't leave it Yeah I feel like for me
Starting point is 00:39:42 It's like any time I use Social media Yeah Especially when you're in that age where like I guess I joined Facebook in like year 10 maybe that's when you're
Starting point is 00:40:00 you gotta be your most embarrassing well I wouldn't actually know saying is it like I only luckily I probably dodged like a bunch of even more embarrassing stuff from before then you know like if I joined up when I was in year 6 so what like 10
Starting point is 00:40:14 there's gonna be some like stuff that will haunt you forever you know if you've if you've been documenting your life since then because we have at least I have the luxury of like if everything pre 2010 i can barely remember because it wasn't on social media in the same way so i can just forget about that and have a bliss all time but all these fucking kids growing up with the bullying each other on instagram like they'll have those haunting memories strapped in their their whole lives probably if it's like with us it's like
Starting point is 00:40:45 the queen jerfy stuff we find funny because it was all in the facebook group where we just shit yeah we at least had the foresight to do that actually is like keep our embarrassing stuff away yeah like a lot not public it was in yeah locked group no one could see so it's only embarrassing to us it wasn't even really like the group thing it was just a group chat that we or at least i ever input too yeah there was there was a group but you only in the chat because you never posted on the actual group because that's where everything happened was actually in the group itself i i wasn't like all i care about is like the communication side of shit like that. I just can't be bothered with like, hey guys, this is me, like, here. Yeah, no one
Starting point is 00:41:28 doing this stuff. The good thing about that group is, like, some of the funny things we now, we now, we bring forward and it's like a thing now. Yeah, now we can, you know, like stabbed round and left and things like that. That is it. That's the answer, that one thing. But, like, it's, it's kind of sad in a way there, because, like, You need to go through phases like that in order to like progress and grow. You know, like you, if you spend your whole life doing everything in your power to never be cringy, you're never going to express anything, you know? And if you're always scared of being embarrassing or, you know, cringy, like you're never going to...
Starting point is 00:42:09 No, that's it, no. Put yourself out there in any form. By trying to not be cringy, they are the cringiest. Yeah, because you're like, you're like putting your hands up and you're like, fuck it then. like I'm just not going to take part really you know wow cringe yeah man
Starting point is 00:42:25 wow cringe that's where it all came from dog jive 42069 for 2069 has this to say good day fellow clunge plunderers holy fuck that is vivid
Starting point is 00:42:41 boy do I have a jar related anecdote for you I was listening to episode 105 with no headphones in This only happens when I'm home alone to avoid dreadful embarrassment from listening to such a shit podcast when my dad decided to come home
Starting point is 00:42:55 as he parked his car in the garage the podcast stopped I went over to my iPad to see why and saw car multimedia at the top of the screen turns out my iPad which had been previously connected
Starting point is 00:43:08 to my dad's car's Bluetooth speakers as a way of playing Spotify and car rides had automatically connected when the car got in range I paused the podcast, but not before the car speakers blasted Jim exclaiming Oh, give me the tortilla! In the most offensive Mexican accent he could muster so fucking loud that I could hear it through not only the car, but the garage walls. Astoundingly, Father had nothing to say about this when he came in.
Starting point is 00:43:36 He must have either thought his radio turned on by accident or that he was just going fucking nuts. Love from Australia, keep it up. Well, we know that's a lie because I would never do that. absolutely so nice lie could it would it have been funnier or less funny if it was genuinely
Starting point is 00:43:54 someone like in Mexico or someone like a Spanish heritage well actually it'll probably be like I don't know what place on the radio I just like that no I'm just digging a way deeper hole for myself good at the good
Starting point is 00:44:11 don't connect to just devices like that because things can happen You don't want them to happen. Yeah, how does that even happen? How was he listening to it before? His dad got there again? Yeah, he said he was on. Oh, right, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:26 And if the Bluetooth was on, it also connects. Damn. It's a good thing it was that, to be honest, because there were way worse things that could have blasted out of the dad's car. More embarrassing things, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, there's some...
Starting point is 00:44:38 Absolutely. Youth things that could have been said. Okay. If you do not stop, I will eat my brownie. We have an interesting one from New underscore Juggernaut. Seeing as Alex was older than the rest of the cast members, how did his friend group in his year... What was?
Starting point is 00:45:02 Yeah. React to having people younger than them in their friend group. Do you never even think about it? Did you guys all get along? I asked because at my school no one interacted with years above or below them until we're in sick form and would spend a lot of time together. this is where I probably became friends with one of my best friends ever I'd known him since I was 10 however had never interacted with him significantly due to being in different year groups we quickly found we had lots of common including that we both watched jar I don't know well you had your the group you hang around with in school which was like people in your year group and they rejoined and we're just like for but like we don't because we obviously grew up together and like we're all always in the same house and when you had friends over like we'd normally always just hang around
Starting point is 00:45:50 anyway so like to us I mean it was nothing because we were brothers and it would just stem from there like the the friend group we had was like I didn't know you when we joined I met you when we joined yeah we met in we were in year seven but then the other two already knew you so it was like the friendship was already there yeah that's the thing like especially if it had been over such a long time you know since early primary school and everything so it was just Yeah, nothing. It was normal, it was fun. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:18 We were just the cool kids who owned on with the cooler kids. Zingo. If only that was the truth. I'm Mr. Neutron. No, Mr. Neutron. So, Sup, lads. What episode would you recommend to get some complete stranger to the cast as a good introduction to it? The normal episode.
Starting point is 00:46:41 The normal episode. This is something that I see a lot of discussion around on the, on the subreddit. It was like people saying, where should I start? Yeah, like, yeah. Like, oh, yeah, I watched the nostalgia critic video and now I want to give the cast a shot. Um, where do we begin? I don't know, honestly. Well, I mean, if you want, like, a normal introduction.
Starting point is 00:47:03 One. Normal episode. I would say don't start with a normal episode. You've got to build up to that shit. Honestly, there's this kind of, uh, rule that they say. I don't know who started this or, or coined it, but they say, it takes about 100 episodes for you to get good at podcasting or like your podcast or whatever. So if there is any truth to that, then maybe start around there somewhere.
Starting point is 00:47:30 100, 100 would be a good, I'd say start with the cave episode. The new, the new wave of jar. And we got this. That was sort of a, a changing point, reverberation, a surge. new life yeah it is a weird like i don't know if issues the right word but like it's a lot of content yeah 200 plus episodes of hour long or more that i've fallen out of listening to podcasts basically because of that that very reason yeah if i missed that on one week i'll be like oh i'll just catch up next week and like double then they stack on top of each other then like you
Starting point is 00:48:12 miss two and then it's like oh see as a as an avid podcast consumer i must i must be by far the the one who listens to the most podcasts like constantly it's like my lifeblood about a year or two ago i could compete with you there but i just better do any yeah um not enough time in a week but i'm the kind of person who like i i just i see one that just happens to catch my eye I'll listen to it and if I like it I'll actually go back and usually do the whole backlog because even like
Starting point is 00:48:45 if there's an episode you're not driving with just delete it goes to the next one because there's so many I mean if the subjects or you know it's not flowing white you just don't bother it yeah if there's honestly
Starting point is 00:48:56 if there's one thing you could do because the audio feed only started like around 170 or something like that maybe a bit earlier you could just start from the podcast feed because then at least you know they're all going to be, you know, suitable for audio and, you know, we've done 100 episodes by then, so there'd be some structure, maybe.
Starting point is 00:49:16 It's like, no, the one podcast I listen to is probably the biggest, the longest running podcast ever, which is the Joe Wogan way, he's got like 1,500. I just pick the ones I want to watch and then go from there. Yeah. He does one, like, every day, though. But if that's the way you want to do podcasts, then you just do that. If the, if the, if the, the, the title on thumbnail was funny, you just watch it. Because it was a good one
Starting point is 00:49:40 Some people responded to this question To give them answers Knocker-on suggested Hot Girl Booty Spider-Man Or Final Yogs ever Always like seeing what people Suggest Cat Spider 2 said episode 9 is great
Starting point is 00:49:56 But we're for sure Scare them off Honestly episode 100 If that's even its real name Yeah that's not a bad call Isn't that one called Episode 50 though? God it's confusing It might be episode 100.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Have we still not done 50? No, we've done 50. I don't know. I don't know. It was like four years ago since we did. 50? Instant Five SARS says Brain Parish Scene, episode 91, is pretty nice. And the final suggestion from Lisa Ann Booty
Starting point is 00:50:26 is just start from the very beginning and binge to you're up to date. It goes from being so shit that it is incredible to being an actually great show. Not to mention you get all the memes and backstory explained. Boom! Started from the bottom, now we are at the top. We quite literally start from the bottom floor flat, sat on the floor.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Now are the top floor of a house. We're going to need like a penthouse in, like, Abu Dhabi, the Hollywood Hills, sitting on really, really tall chairs. Buzunga says, where is I build everything? Yeah, where is I build everything, huh? Uh, to be honest, I haven't built any Lego in a long time. No, you made a promise. I did make a promise.
Starting point is 00:51:12 Just the channel existing is a mere promise. No, someone did a bet and was just like, if this happens, you've got to upload a video to I build everything. And you haven't done it. I've done the bid. I did my part of the deal. You haven't done a video. You know what really kind of messed it up a little bit for me? Was this, have you heard about these new changes YouTube have made to what is considered children's content?
Starting point is 00:51:34 they're like cracking down because of all the like weird shit that was going on YouTube I guess with all these like creepy like Elsa's Spider-Man tit-looking videos whatever the fuck is like out of it so now like great right as I wanted to make my little Lego channel I guess now I can just be as rude and crass as I want on it then because at first I was going to be like
Starting point is 00:51:56 okay I guess I'll try and keep it family friendly seeing as like the chances are the people clicking on it and going to be a bit younger If not, suppose I'll just be completely vile. Put this fucking piece down. Put this fucking motherfucker down. Why would yours not be classed as actual family-friendly content? Because, no, it changes the channel.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Because you have to choose, you have to say, yes, my videos are designed for children. And then it goes through certain checks. The channel operates differently. The algorithms are completely different. It's really fucking people over, like. Ashton's is one, I'm talking about it. Um... Zhang bricks, I imagine.
Starting point is 00:52:40 Jang bricks has been really affected by, uh... I know, like, loads of the Lego YouTubers and they've all, like, had to panic, like, shift a bunch of stuff because of it, like... Yeah, dude. But... It's mainly because it's like, if I'm gonna sit down to make a video, there's like a hierarchy of importance, you know?
Starting point is 00:52:57 Like it's I-H-E, Jars, Idonochast, and the Lego thing's way at the bottom. So... And on the subject of making videos, I am going to start making them this year. Oh, really? I'm going to invest in the GoPro. Is this a promise? A New Year's resolution?
Starting point is 00:53:16 You know what? Making promises is like, well, you'll have people to watch immediately. Because I just want to do, like, driving stuff with actual, like, a GoPro on my head, like, of, like, driving around tracks and that type of stuff is just something I want to do. That would be awesome. That would be sick, dude. Like night driving in the wane. it's just like really like kind of chill drifting vids if I had a car that could be
Starting point is 00:53:38 I'm going to do that later this year so you're going to drift later this year and I can do that right now in the car outside down to the house but yeah I'm going to get on top of that Ali B8 it says do you think there's any
Starting point is 00:53:53 correlation in your taste of music with your taste of movies slash games slash other mediums oh shit I would say so because a lot of my music tastes stems from film. I would say no.
Starting point is 00:54:07 Really? Interesting. Wrong, but... It's about me, not you. Okay. I can't say because I don't know my tasting games or music. I don't... What...
Starting point is 00:54:21 Okay, you guys answer the question for me. I would say... Music. Yes, with James. Okay. Why? Because James... James is like...
Starting point is 00:54:33 The media he consumes all fits under, like, a certain, like, image. It's all, like, the car culture, Japanese, and it all fits into it. Dunkirk and Eurobeat. Yeah, yes. To play a correlation there. Yeah. I love Dunkirk, but it's just, like, Fast and Furious, Initial D, Forza. They're still the same.
Starting point is 00:54:58 But then I think, I love jazz. Jazz is a thing I love. I don't listen to it but I love it and that doesn't correlate to like the movies or games I play Do you not have a soft spot
Starting point is 00:55:08 for it because of Cowboy Bebop? Yes I have a massive soft spot for it because of Cowboy Bebole Zingo and just anime and genre I didn't know if
Starting point is 00:55:16 minor is easy to nail down because your game you're really I don't really have a personality is the thing it's like the games you play they the games you get really singed into
Starting point is 00:55:29 they don't really overlap like Sekalo psychiro yeah Red Dead they're completely like different I think it all affects each other somewhat like the only reason like
Starting point is 00:55:42 I find a fair amount of music from like games movies TV shows and stuff is because like it starts with me like watching a movie and then say it's something like the social network soundtrack by Trent Resner then I listen to that get obsessed with that and then I'm like what else has he done
Starting point is 00:56:00 then you find 9-inch nails and stuff like that and it all stems like that you see I would say a lot of people like that because it's like when you hear something you like you're naturally going to try and find more like it but I don't yeah like um that that app
Starting point is 00:56:18 soundhound is like awesome so if you if like a movie's playing you're watching it in your living room and the song starts playing in peeky blinders or something you can whip out your phone put on soundhound hound and it like tells you what the song is it's really cool
Starting point is 00:56:33 yeah yeah awesome out on the subject the peekie blinders intro song is really good yeah it is oh eating my beans with a green rat super trousers asks what other comedians
Starting point is 00:56:52 should get shredded and star in Marvel movies in your honest opinions Kevin Hart uh Duane Johnson No, because he's going to be Black Adam He doesn't count And he's already fucking shredded
Starting point is 00:57:05 That was D-J Yeah Uh, Chris Rock Yeah He of course is Marty But that's not really enough That's not anything to do with Marvel Who's gonna come with me
Starting point is 00:57:21 When the new Madagascar movie comes out Or are gonna have to see it by myself Are you gonna watch the kids show Managascar of all the characters As babies Yeah Um, depends That sounds terrible
Starting point is 00:57:32 No, if it's Chris Rock And returning If all the main voice actors return If it's people not If it's not the official actors You can count me out Hmm The official actors aren't going to return
Starting point is 00:57:44 For a Nickelodeon kids You'd be surprised dude Like they were in all of those weird Like the Madagascar Valentine Special And the Halloween ones So they're all in that shit So
Starting point is 00:57:53 Damn Um other comedians though Ricky Jave No, he's What could he be? What the fuck character could he play? Just take out Chris Pratt and put in Ricky Jervais.
Starting point is 00:58:10 Ripped Ricky Jervais as Starlord. Dude. Um, comedians. Oh, Amy Schumer. The Eternal's 2. She'll probably be in that. But then what jokes would she be able to make if she like,
Starting point is 00:58:29 becomes like a perfect ripped model for a movie. All of her humour will be about that, I suppose. Yeah. A lot of Marvel humor is that, though. Wow, you're kind of ripped. Yeah, well. Hey, I haven't told you this before, but I like you. Well, thanks for making me hate Marvel again.
Starting point is 00:58:57 Zingo. With that, that's all the questions we'll do for this. I never finished Guardians of Galaxy 2. That's how boring it was. Why'd you have to do that? Why'd you have to do that right at the end? I'm making it full circle, bitch. Well, that's episode 199C of the JARC
Starting point is 00:59:15 closing off the trilogy. Who knows what's coming next? It's not going to be 199D, so don't worry about it. Yeah, we're not that fucking funny. It could be 199D nuts.
