We'll do a music-related one, I think, this time. So check that out over on the Patreon. That's not all. If that wasn't enough, there's also the J.R. Media group chat over there.

An ongoing chat, when you know what group chat is. If you're listening to a podcast, you probably know what a group chat is. Although, maybe they don't. Some people are fresh into this world. Yeah, so you can go on that group chat, join the conversation, give us suggestions for episodes, which will get to shortly in the housekeeping thing, unless you have something to say right now right here right here right now i was just going to say like it's it's like just such a good deal like it's the it's just like an unmatched deal it's the best deal

you think my pillows are a good deal this is the deal deal deal or no deal my pillows you don't know about the my pillow guy no well fox news you ever seen the pillow go oh i think i might have seen the pillow go yeah yeah yeah yeah um those were some good deals to be fair they were some good my pillow deals um that makes it sound like a sponsorship it's not obviously yeah we we have no entangled them with the my pillow go um but i guess speaking of at ldredge says can you upload the 2016 election predictions blab i guess we did that oh i can't remember if we like didn't upload it or something. Or is that when we did upload? I remember what I said. Did you make an incorrect prediction? Huh? Did you make an incorrect prediction? See, this makes me not even want to

talk about what's coming up because I'm scared. You're scared? Back then I was like, there's just no way. there's no way it cannot happen fast forward to nearly 10 years later and we're in the same position again well not us and Americans are but now I know that it can happen and it might

yeah polls are scary bruh we're recording this on the 30th October for the record so pre-Hlloween even but this is going up I guess the day of the American election right the 4th or 5th I can't remember it's not our business to be honest

yeah I mean who cares really who cares except the whole world yeah well I mean it's either their choice seems to be prosperity forever or chaos death and destruction

and you as the audience member pick which one that is because uh yeah yeah just like I'm on whatever side you want that whatever you hear whatever you like the sound of is uh yeah we're gonna speak about this topic in a way where you know we're perfectly we're tightroping yeah there's i've been watching veep lately which is obviously pressier there's this

character that shows up part way through and that's like their whole schick whenever they're in the room is like they just never take a take they're always like completely middling and they're like well if you look at it this way it's that thing if you look at that way well who knows like yeah yeah and I used to be that way mm like not that long ago I was like let's all just like I was like a that guy the fucking mpc guy who got a watch off Joe Rogan this is Lex Friedman oh dude him yeah yeah beep that I was like that guy the mpc guy is always wearing a suit um and it's like yeah we don't have to be passionate about anything yeah so don't only just be nice to each other everybody

Yeah, why don't we just have a conversation? Yeah, because the style of this few makes me want to tell my hair out. Yeah, I mean, there's lots of answers as to why not. Yes, uh-huh. Um, we're kind of skirting on the edge here, but I want to throw out, if we put a pin in that for just a moment. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll return to that after I read this one from a puffin nine, five, four, five. Can't recommend tarnished archaeologist, highly enough for Eldon Ring Law, easily the best in the business.

Have you, do you familiar with this one? would you recommend I was reading the comments and I was because I can't remember if I said in the episode or if I just meant to say it while I was just going on this

like impossible to follow rant about the law the golden ring but there's so many creators and I'm still blanking now but like I see them when they're in my feed it's like that's going in the watch later

I'm going to watch that in the bath I'm going to sit in the bath for an hour and a half, listening to that later. It was a nice little rhyme. Sitting in the bath for an hour and a half. There was a, I wanna say controversial, but it wasn't controversial. There was a rhyming controversy

on the last Sardonicust, right? I said, the gore and sore. Which, and then I was like, oh, that rhymes, but then Adam was like, actually only in all right? Only for Brits. So how did America? Gore. Gore and sore.

Gore in saw. That's right, yeah. Gore in saw. Gore and sore. Gore in sore. Yeah. Just another reason why we're superior. Yep, we can rhyme goal with sore.

Charlie Bordman, 2005, says, finding out aliens built the pyramids would change things. Yeah, pretty much. Is that a real comment? Or are you just saying that? That was a comment. I didn't even fake this one. Yeah, because I remember us talking about it.

Yeah, and yeah, it would. But they didn't. So it doesn't. Yeah. Seafoob says, I'm here by petitioning Alex to play Armored Core 6. It's directly inspired by Doon. It's got one of the best stories and characters of last year. It's got extremely good gameplay and build making.

It's amazing, please. Perhaps. Dude, it's fucking fire. It's really good It's the fires of Rubicon What is I think of that drink Whenever I hear the name Rubicon

Isn't that a drink It's like a lot I mean it sets a fire in my soul Delicious A delicious A delicious fruity passion fruit Fruitsing Yeah

A tropical punch in the mouth Yeah It's kind of winning me over So uh They're genuinely it rocks It's a really good ass game Hmm And you to add it to my wish list

It feels like an old school thing with the storytelling and everything kind of like codec cool style really cool and engaging yeah fire fire old man diabetes says I found myself agreeing with Jim more and more nowadays if Jim is wrong then I must also be wrong and that makes me angry I need constant validation or my life isn't worth living sorry to hear that but is this going about to the kung fu panda thing um i don't know i purposefully wasn't going to bring that up but seeing as you have let's just argue about that we do i made my point with kung fu panda

you know like if if you identify with my opinion on kung fu panda great um if you're wrong but sure you can't say that huh i love kung fu panda that's what i'm saying my opinion my opinion is different to yours which is not okay that's exactly my point yeah um a couple more here definitely not micah says i was it was interesting hearing a and j talk about online conspiracies honestly i don't think the point is to actually believe any of these crazy ideas it seems more about forming an identity around a certain belief or opinion then virtue signaling that to the people around you they form communities around believing in conspiracies regardless of if they believe it's true or not and cast off

anyone else who doesn't choose to engage as deep state actors or whatever it's never about what the facts and truth are it's about forming an in-group and getting the most attention so they can dictate what the truth is recorded and broadcasted as ponderings well that was a interesting uh perspective way i'm sure that that is some of it yeah for sure like it's it's like a human behavior right so you go find your group and you form a thing around a group even if the thing you've built a group around is dumb yeah but i think people People do believe it. I think, yeah.

There's too many. I think you'd be surprised the like percentage if it was somehow measurable, like, of people who actually believe some of these things. But when, when you see people like making arguments for flat earth. Yeah. You know, like that some people surely are doing it for the shits and giggles. Uh-huh. Or just asking stupid questions. Other people are genuinely convinced and cannot be unconvinced.

And then it's that Alex Jones problem, right? Where it's like, maybe you knew you were a character and you're self-aware of that at some point. But once you've been playing the character for decades, you're like, oh, the lines of blood to the point where I just am. Yeah, yeah. That's the problem with like method actors. Yeah. You know? Mm-hmm.

Like if you do that long enough at some point, you're going to be Jared Lesser. So, Joker condom, fucking barrageing people. The one that gets me is just picturing him on set for Blade Runner 2049 because his character's blind. Yeah, he's like walking into tables. Like six people like guiding him across this elaborate set of these sharp corners and dangers. Did he wear like blind contact lenses? Yes. Ewe.

Uh-huh. But so I, I, Jeremy Strong, um, I'm not sure if you've seen him anything. he's the main character in Succession and he was recently in the Trump movie The Apprentice he's quite infamous for method acting but I think his results

are amazing that he's actually incredible to watch. Yeah it's like Daniel Day Lewis but I feel like all those people should be banned from getting Oscars well like you should be allowed to like the actors who aren't doing method should be allowed to like slap them or something yeah just go ravage

slap me because like Brian Cox would like he took he's like quite open about like yeah we don't really do that in the UK and he was like pissed off by it and just like what wait who was Brian Brian Cox he's like the the dad in succession he's like the Rupert Murdoch oh type character Brian Cox is a scientist isn't it they share the same name yeah huh uh huh I found this good clip I don't know if I'll be able to find it now but it was around the time succession was ending and the last season was out it was Brian Cox um an ad came up

I was on the jar Reddit I think and an embedded ad came up and it was him going hello Reddit hey Reddit it was weird man and I screen recorded it was so strange I was seeing as we're kind of organically come back to this point anyway

slam dunk Cosmos from the jar media group chat said this the racist Puerto Rico joke at Madison Square Garden being so unfunny even pissed off Republicans' thoughts, and I guess we can sort of... This was the VP, right? I thought it was the Kill Tony guy.

At the Trump rally, he made the joke about Puerto Rico Garbage Island. Yeah, yeah. Wait, he was at a Trump rally? He opened a Trump rally. Yeah, that was the controversy, right? Oh, I didn't realize that. I got the information from someone else, so it was like, trickle-downed. They had watched it and they didn't know who this

they didn't know kill Tony. Yeah. I know people don't like, I guess, when we talk about politics, but come on, give us this one. It's like the... It's today. It's one of the biggest political events. Like, this one feels big, man. This is I'm scared for the... Thank you, Yanks, man. I'm scared for you guys. Why are you scared? because

January 6th was nuts yeah I can't believe you got a pass for that when that was happening I like was watching like a live stream of it like the live coverage and was like this is just wild man because I yeah I just mentioned I've been watching Veep which is obviously like a satirical

written and created by the same fella as in the loop and thick of it set in the same universe even oh wow and like it's it's it's it's funny it's clever but like it it's like nothing compared to the reality of now it's like so absurd and this this sickening entertainment i get from it there's like a darkness to that as like a sitting on the the sidelines with with no skin in the game but also like it also does feel like there is some kind of skin everyone has skin in the game everyone's affected by the state of america yeah gotcha

you know yeah i and america's a bit of a state right now a terror i i can't believe we're here again and last time as i was saying last time we were here i was like like i i wouldn't vote for trump but you know what people have been saying about him it's like kind of extreme you know it's like they they kind of took it too far you know for which the 2016 Are you saying? Yeah, 2016, but pre-Trump being president, right, um, when I was like, he's, he's getting a lot of hate when like, like, I feel like, because they're demonizing him so much. Um, it might work in his favor. Yeah. And calling him a fascist and stuff. A bit far. And then Charlottesville, January 6th. Um, everything else mm-hmm it's crazy I was proven so wrong that I've I wouldn't call myself radicalized but I am more radical it's so like it seemed like 2016 was heightened this is like even more heightened than that it feels yeah yeah yeah like the fervor the the

insanity the talking points are just like it was crazy in our country for the collection we had this year it was nuts but it's just on a whole another level over there but the the information is so jumbled uh-huh and on bro that I need to show you something right someone posted this on the jail subreddit like saying you have to show gym this and I might have to take out the exact um clip once I start playing it because the, uh, it has a song in it that might be copyrighted, but I'll put it on the Patreon otherwise. Um, but this is relevant. Uh, do you know what a pack is? PAC? Um, no. It's, uh, I noted it down so I wouldn't forget. A political action committee, which is basically like a

a way of fundraising money for political, uh, parties or whatever. And I mentioned that because the owner of X, Musk, created a super PAC to support Donald Trump and it's under the account at America on X and they posted this video that I'm about to show you with the caption, this election will determine the fate of America and Western civilization. Let me just show you this video because I couldn't quite believe it. like this is real, this is endorsed, there's millions and millions of, probably tens of millions of dollars pumped into this shit. Um, yeah. What? Who? What's that on?

X. And who posted it? Who? it's under that account at america what's at america the p a city that this right yeah yeah pack founded by elon muster support candidates who champion secure borders sensible spending safe cities fair justice system free speech and self-protection i think man we have a media problem man and they always talk about that don't they that that's one of their talking points but it's like, do you are the, yeah, you did it, you're doing it.

You're doing it worse than anyone. They're one example of the, um, laptop story being. Oh, Hunter Biden? Yeah. Uh-huh. Which they're convinced would have swung like a quarter of all voters to the right. Yeah, as soon as, like, they were just obsessing over his dick.

Like, Oh, Hunter Dick. Yeah. It's cracked out cock. Yeah. Yeah. It's genuinely... Horrified it.

It's such like an insane double standard. But do you think that's worked on anyone? Yes. Do you think it's Manosphere coded? Yes. That's what they know. Trump's whole thing is that, right? It's why like in that debate with Kamala,

he got so upset by the whole... Your crowd size is small. And then he like went off the rails after that because it's like, no, my crowd size is awesome and giant. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like, oh my God, how sensitive are you? Yeah, it's a shame they don't, they've only had one debate. Yeah, well, of course, the big, big one the other day was Trump going on Joe Rogan. Yeah, which I listened to the entirety of.

I can't remember if I listened to the whole thing. I listened to a bit of it, a couple hours of it. It was a long conversation. It's really bad. Yeah. but I think it's kind of an optics win for him yeah if you look at the comments and stuff

it's just like finally a politician being honest and real yeah yeah and Joe Rogan is a massive pussy he's total pushover I mean like he's been warped that part about the January 6th was funny though where he like

kind of accidentally gets Trump to well he keeps trying to bring Trump to the 2020 election yeah and to go into it more and Trump's just like oh it was horrible the they they faked it and he's like how did they fake it and he's like they I mean there's so many things they faked it in so many ways yeah and then and then they just move on and it's like you you had him you know he's a fucking liar and then like you say all the comments are like finally someone a politician telling the truth what the hell it's like all he did was life

for the whole thing. Yeah. Did you get to the part where he tells the story about the plane landing? Uh, remind me. I was playing Alderman at the same time. When he went to visit ISIS or whatever, um, to sort this deal, um, to get out of Afghanistan, he was talking about how the plane landed in like the dead of night in this Saudi airport. There were no lights anywhere, there were no lights on in the plane.

Um, and I'm not saying that's a lie necessary. that's a lie necessarily but it's it must have been half an hour of the podcast where he's just talking about how hot the pilots were he oh no i do remember that they're perfect specimens that's right he's obsessed with calling people's perfect specimens yeah and that's that sounds like some hitler shit i'm sorry like to make the comparison but like don't call people perfect specimen he's the one that said um the ubermensch yeah he said that to his staff right that he wants it to look like a bunch of perfect specimens that's fucking weird and that yeah but it's just the general level of decorum as far as like he's calling his political opponents and old people who's worked

with he's like oh he's a stupid son of a bitch yeah yeah stuff like this he's trying to like bro up with joe i guess um yeah and joe's just eating it up and like giggling and stuff yeah and trump to win him over like brings every single story to like fighting an m-ma to like play to the audience like us really like manipulative and then he's like i i know you joe i know you about as well as your wife just from listening to you's like he's always talking about like ratings as well like yeah this kind yeah the dude is he's he's creepy to me you know that yeah that kind of greased up like um um he's he's always working the person he's talking to you they're like

I don't know he's just like jab at the hut or something you know yeah boosy docey boosy that's all I was hearing man that whole thing and then Trump Rogan's like hey I want Kamala let's come on as well he was tweeting about it

and she declined because she could only do like an hour if Joe flew to her and he's like no you got to come to me and we got to do a three hour thing even though it's like at the time recording a week from election so she needs to be in the swing states um just kind of an episode i don't know i just feel like it would be a lose loose for her anyway like it would just be talking about like conspiracy theories and be a lamb or whatever it would just be a nightmare um yeah and it joe is clearly um biased like the questions he was asking Trump I don't know if he like

does he say does he still kind of say he's like a classical liberal thing like he wasn't he wasn't even that right wing back in the day he was a full-on like left wing liberal yeah I don't know what like changed remember when he said he had Bernie on and he was like yeah I'll of it for you he aligned with Bernie and now he's aligning with Trump it's like how did that happen we brought we brought it up I guess it all feeds into this thing of like we're talking about the conspiracies last episode um just something just something breaking in people around that 2020

well i i see it as as more of because he's he's always going on about this the corrupt nature of the left wing of the democrats in america and he he has a political platform whether he likes it or not right whether he just wants to have conversations or not like maybe if he actually read comments and stuff and what people think about him then yeah then he'd understand more um but he classic audience capture yeah yeah and what i don't think he he doesn't realize that corruption isn't always like overt i think him being friends with Elon Musk's a useful idiot yeah yeah but not even like Elon Musk might not look at it as if he's

using Joe but purely from Elon Musk's alignment with Trump which already is corrupt they might he might not see it as I've bought this huge platform and I'm using it as a mouthpiece for this politician but that is how he's using it and it's the same for Joe And he's probably more likely going to agree with people he's friends with. Yeah. And just think about the list of people he's signal boosted over the years. Sure, you do have Bernie. But that's like the...

Who else like that is here? It's mostly like your Shapiro's, your Matt Walsh's, your Crowder was on there. Musk has been on it a bunch of names. Yeah, yeah. That's what I mean. Like, he's obviously friends with these people. and it's it's why his

his stand-up fucking sucks as well and his friend he basically created the kill Tony dude as well and that whole like comedy scene in Austin yeah so I guess all of those comedians

kind of have to be right wing I guess because like you can't get on Joe's bad side they're in such this like siloed off circle jerk thing, I guess. So every now and again, it will go out of that circle, like at the opening of Trump rally.

Well, I mean, that's great. And then people see it for what it is, I guess. Is he in support of Trump then? He must be. Why else would you open a rally? I find it so strange that, um, because Joe Rogan has, has said this. Um, I remember Dave Rubin saying it as well. like the new artists and like the the punk rock star they're all right wing now because that's the that's the new dynamic and it's like no you just you are uh-huh and joe's always talking about these boomers these boomer democrats

it's like what age range do you think is mostly voting right or left like yeah it just screams you're so out of touch like it punk rock and conservatism literally cannot be in alignment this is the man who has hundreds of millions or tens of millions that Spotify pay him I can't remember but it's so obscene millions I'm pretty sure it's a level of wealth

no one can understand and that in and in and of itself will other you and make it you know yeah so I it's just so obvious with him how biased he is I saw a clip just today where he's like have you seen the list of um of the donators to each party and like all the big ones are with the democrat party like your Googles and apple and Microsoft and stuff and the the fucking legend himself Jamie fact checks it and he's like this six out of the seven highest donators are all right wing yeah they're all paying the Republicans but

yeah he's like oh it's probably just the tax write off or something isn't it's like so so one second it's an evil like corporation aligning themselves against the human race mm-hmm but when it's your side oh they're just guys being dudes yeah and you say like it seems obvious and it does to us I guess and even like broader with things like you know when we're in Vegas earlier in the year talking to people from the state of Nevada talking about how yeah everyone there was just raised on Fox News like it's just what people watch it's owned by a billionaire Murdoch who single-handedly has done so much damage to the world it's actually

unfathomable um I genuinely have no idea it's it's it's so crazy to me that we're at this point with like the media and like the start now yeah just add in like musk into the pile and it's just crazy where it's coming from and like just the lies yeah i think i think the the bad path we set ourselves on was information as entertainment you know because then the information has to be entertaining yeah it's the way to make it entertaining is to like angle it you know warp it into this thing so there's like a meaning in the information where i think it all stems from like you know fiduciary responsibility numbers have to go up you're going to sell more papers murder it's going to sell more papers in the 70s and 80s or whatever

when it's something that makes you mad something that pieces you off yeah you're way more likely to engage with it um and it works the exact same on social media decades and decades and decades of that is bad enough on its own then in the early 2000s inject the internet with all these different social media platforms that are built around the same philosophy and then everyone is like flat earth comes back yeah people are losing the damn minds yeah all the conspiracies it is crazy um and so why don't we end this segment with a prediction yeah i i am i i am i am i think trump's going to win i'm not happy about it but i think he might win god i hope i'm wrong but i think he might win yeah um i'm going to say

the same thing really i think he's going to win like the stuff you read about he's he's everywhere people equate um i keep saying her name wrong camela yeah it's not kamala camela they love the equation game like god it annoys me so much god it annoys me because yeah she's a career politician there's a certain dislikeability to all politicians inherently but to pretend that it's like the same thing it's so so wild to me um and yeah just the the stuff i'm i'm seeing reading the arguments i'm hearing are just like so I mean best of luck to you guys but oh yeah it's it's brutal um yeah yeah i i can't wrap my head around it it makes me feel actually insane yeah the like i was urge to write a comment today for the first time in years. Just on a YouTube

short reading some of the some of the brain right on there. But you don't even know it's really, it could even like that's the thing. That's the thing. That's what that's probably like the YouTube short I was looking at was probably uploaded by a bot with bots in the comments. Riling me up.

That's why I keep having that same feeling on X with like the urge to quote tweet the dumb shit I see but then I remind myself it's probably about like it you're just doing what they want yeah trying to piss you off they're just trying to monetize their fucking tweets with your anger engagement don't do it um but man it's hard yeah yeah it's crazy and like you said at the start of this whole conversation it's not we don't even live there i know but that yeah

and it like fills me with anxiety to thinking about you know even our our election was like it's either going to be shit or shitter you know like that we're in a bad spot we're arguably in a worse spot than americans at least they've got yeah millions of resources built into their country their GDP is recovered so much better than basically everywhere else post-COVID like we're their money is so much more valuable like to the you know this the stuff is expensive that it has gone up with inflation as it has everywhere but in proportion to average yearly wages you still have better spending power than you do here that's why so many brits are moving to Canada and America because like you're

for the same job or anywhere in the west western Europe we're about as bad as it gets in it's like us in Greece at least they got the sun you know and get food yeah they got smiles like something yeah

you know um but there's there was less anxiety with our election it's like as much as I thought Rishi was a

fucking wheezel asshole fucking let's take money away from the poor places to fund nice parks in the in the well funded areas because that

that's what needs to be done this train is too good of an idea let's just quickly sell off as much private land as possible yeah yeah yeah let's just cash in while we fucking can yeah so but like at least i know that he's not that level of just evil yeah i'd say boris kind of comes close he's the closest yeah yeah yeah but i think i genuinely think boris he's so you will about him he's he has some kind of level of intelligence um for you know uses it for evil reasons but yeah yeah but i genuinely think

Trump is actually a dumb ass I actually think he's dumb I think he's dumb and like domineering yeah he's awful combo yeah yeah he's just he's like a strength build zero intelligence

you know yeah zero intelligence I guess like six charisma and what's the luck stat I would say 10 like the fact that he even made it into the White House

is kind of a term I keep thinking about that handover of Obama you know that meeting where the presidents have where they have the conversation or whatever and they hand it off or whatever just what that energy in that room would have been like can you even imagine

dude can you imagine being Obama in that situation yeah and the oh man in the space of eight years like can

can you blame Obama partly for Trump um it's not fair to put it on him is it no I mean part blame you mean with like the the hope messaging and like

yeah because it's going to change politics forever it flipped man totally flipped it's like Obama was like let's do some good shit let's like everyone

believe in this idea of America Trump's like this fucking place sucks it's fucking shit he's doing that now he just lies yeah yeah it's like but you've already been in

you clearly haven't had that much of an effect um yeah I don't know I feel like I'm waffling now yeah we'll see after these messages ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I just put that Trump pad I hope that ad makes some people not vote for him that were going to do.

It's so fucking cringe. Yeah, it's the cringest shit I've ever seen. Why is it like, do you remember that thing where you could put the faces on like dancing? Oh, jib jab. Jib jab, yeah. It's like a jib jab Trump. I sent you that. yesterday of Elon at that rally. Yeah, given the worst speech of all time. He goes like,

yeah. Oh, God, it's skin crawling. Yeah. I was like, I had to like get up and like writhe around because it was like, oh my God, this level, this level of cringe is so strong. I actually don't know like where to put that feeling because it's so, it's so uncomfortable to me. That's just his existence. God, I could, I could talk for, fucking hours about how much i hate that man i fucking hate i hate him more than trump yeah i think he's a worst person i shouldn't really yeah he's trumped like times 10 it wouldn't surprise me if him fucking four years he runs next right yeah he's not allowed is he he wasn't born in the u u.s maybe that's why he's creating so many candidates he's grooming his

son to be there but if if Trump gets in changes the law fuck the constitution because Elon Musk has the same like cult the cult following you know it's like no matter how much cringe shit that you're like look at this look at Trump's steak uh-huh do you ever see Trump steak like that shit's lame and is shit and lost money like a lot of Donald Trump's business uh-huh it's just a bad sign if your platform is just like cult of personality full stop yeah that's like all the matters yes yeah anyway yeah hey reddit

welcome to the second half of the show where we head over to the suggestion read over on the subreddit and answer questions from the community just like miniature rennie who said this new title of the creator thoughts oh awesome um yeah awesome rock on i've only listened through it all the way once yeah um i've only heard two songs from it but i'm not like the tyler guy so i don't really have a point of reference to even i on my first listen i got like a third half the way through um

no songs like flow into each other in an interesting way don't they yeah um but i was like i'm not feeling this the same way I'm not feeling as intensely like oh shit here we go as I was with his previous album call me if you got lost

because I really feel that that album came out at like the perfect time for me whereas this this seems more like I can delve into it more so because I'm on my like second proper list

listen and it's really interesting and I feel like lyrically I don't really absorb stuff on a first listen I don't really like I'd say it's almost impossible to like absorb an album on one listen yeah for sure for sure but some albums are more designed to just be like oh this is a bop yeah whereas some albums are more like this requires your attention they reward you that the harder you pay attention the more you analyze the lyrics and the different sounds and whatever yeah it's like um when I listened to good kid mad city back in the day for the first time mm-hmm I was like eh you know because I was just listening to it surface level it's like yes it's got some bangers other songs pretty boring whereas

when I have now sat down and listened to it with intent and focusing on it there's a lot to get out of it but which this album feels more like you know so i'm really liking it and it sounds grungy and crunchy and cool yeah i like the production from what i heard some of a weird unique sounds i was hearing yeah in the background that guide you through i really like the first song tyler always has a knack for introing an album mm getting you kind of hype grabbing you yeah and yeah the first song might be my favorite song

in the album really cool cool mr of gusmager says hey there jim more metal gear solid talk please talk about how hot ocelot is see which

are you thinking of um metal gear with all this US politics stuff um yeah i mean the melt gysolet too obviously comes to mind well i haven't played it so the the the early is that the one with a private military thing and no early internet um kajima called it basically the whole game is about like misinformation and just fake fake realities like that's the whole that's the meaning of like the whole game yeah he he called that shit

That was 90s, right? Early 2000s. Meltgasolid 1 was late 90s. Right. But yeah, I mean, I could like Eldon Ring law dump the whole Fung-MGS timeline, but I won't. I'm kind of excited for Meltgas Solid 3 remake thing. But also, I won't be like pre-ordering it.

I'll definitely wait for review. use it's Konami um and at the moment it kind of looks like a fake game right if that makes sense what would be the best way for me to play metal gear solid two you can just get it on steam now oh cool steam that team deck thing as well because steam yeah true actually yeah yeah I've bought the original three because they released them all on um um steam deck and I just need to power through MGS 1 at some point um they're not like long ass games I'd never experienced MGS 1 myself before and the like old game is old as fuck oh really yeah whereas MGS 2 old game is old but it's it's pretty easy yeah that

predictive thing is quite interesting to me the Kajima predicting shit yeah yeah yeah um reading the two leaves kind of thing yeah you just have to also power through a bunch of fucking cringe isn't that what people love about it because yeah that's that's exactly what i love about it i love um a lot of people complain because it's a death stranding complaint as well like he'll hit the nail on the head and then like continue to hit the nail on the head until there is no nail it obliterates the nail yeah and like like that there's not really room for subtleties he really drills shit in which for me works with Death Stranding with Metal Gear it can be like just so damn dumb it's

yeah but it's also super charming I feel like a lot of video games like a lot of games that are praised for their writing or when writing has talked about in games there's sort of like a it's not looked at the same way it might be in a film or no how no or something there's a lot more leeway and it's often why like when I hear game

reviewers talking about how great the writing in the new dragon age is or whatever yeah and then like I actually watch it for myself and there's like a dissonance of like oh my god this it's like fucking sucks not to call out Kojima specifically but you know what I'm saying well yeah that the thing

with kajima is that like he i i find it if if if you're trying to make something realistic say like cod modern warfare the new one you're trying to make something realistic and then characters are talking but it's obviously a script mm-hmm like you can't play along there really it's like it's meant to have moments whereas like metal gear is so obviously a script it's so inhuman and robotic but the actors are just putting their whole fucking pussy in it

like really giving it they're all when like it would be Ottercon crying for like five minutes telling his life story it's like the shit no human would talk like this but because of the actors because of how far from reality

it is I find it easier to buy into it It's a charm to it, yeah. Yeah, because it's just total bullshit. It's not based in reality. It's like people who have issues with the Mad Max films. The newer Mad Max films. They're using so much petrol, but they're running out of petrol.

Like, what? I'm actually, Gastown is nearby. I know what you're saying. But that's also just like. Like a lot of the, a lot of stories will just, they might just not gel with you. Like that, that style, that vision might not be for you and that's fine. Yeah. I do find it tricky picturing you finishing a Kojima game.

Really? I own Death Stranding. So maybe I should start with that one and see how I fear. because I remember watching an entire play-through of Metal Gear Solar 3 because I'd always heard that's like a fan favorite one and I like the idea of like the setting and the string of bosses seemed interesting to me but then like these cutscenes with the...

Is it Osolot with the two guns and the angles they're doing and like he's making like an animal noise or like he's doing something? Yeah, yeah, but I don't know if it's really my vibe, I don't know. It's, it's anime vibe. You know, if, if you could buy characters doing that in an anime, you just have to look at it through anime lens. Do you know what I mean? Hmm.

Right. There's a lot of anime tropes that piss me off of this. Yeah, but I mean, I, I'm not, I'm not an avid anime watcher. I've watched like two. I wouldn't call it anime tropey. It's just that you need that same. treatment the you know when a character's like talking but they're just kind of monologuing uh-huh just saying things basically directly at the audience yeah it's like something you just

kind of buy into yeah i wouldn't write it off yet about trying one no give it a shot and i do own death stranding so yeah and the writing may like suck the Stories are good. And honestly, the thing that, like, is alluring to me about Death Stranding is, like, actually adding mechanics to a walking simulator. We're actually making a game out of that. Well, yeah, and, like, making a game out of the traversal of an open world. Really cool idea. Mm-hmm.

Yeah, it's kind of more mechanically interesting, but, uh, Po the Panda's very epic as this to say. The cinema by the Dream Lounge recently shut its doors and closed down, RAPE to that Cineworld. now that that's no longer there what would you guys replace it with in order to keep the spirit of Swindon alive which I can mention The nightmare lounge We forgot to mention

We were in Swindon It was a few weeks ago now And we were in the main high street The centre of Blightown You know the heart You know With the poison Yeah the swamp

The swamp And we've We stumbled into the back rooms Just straight up Yeah it was crazy we're like walking around we got like a coffee and there's it was like that old

it's kind of like a mini mall I guess you'd describe it as it's all like inside there's multiple sections to it this mall there's two main entrances right or something yeah but I don't know if they link

it looked closed off and you walk towards the doors and they're automatic and they opened more like you allow you in there and we just walked in and I got video of this yeah um it was creep there's like this music playing but every single shop is just empty or boarded up yeah it's genuinely frightening it was creepy as hell yeah because a lady came out like walking from the other direction towards us yeah

when I saw her I was like is she gonna like shed her skin and turn into like a creature yeah what it was happened yeah and they've got these like escalators that are powered down it's like use these at your own risk in my big signs yeah and it's like only go up the one that would normally go up and it's like well i don't know which one goes up because they're not moving it was really really weird yeah um and kind of hit home how like if if you're not one of the main like hubs like a bristol or a bath or london or whatever you've been decimated yeah you're done yeah deal and he fucked yeah yeah yeah yeah Yeah.

That was weird. Um. Yeah. And it wasn't even that long ago. That place was busing. Straight up. It was, it was full. And, yeah, people everywhere.

Shops overflowing with stock. You know, people buying stuff. Yeah. I suppose it's partially Jev Bezos's fault. But, um, you know. Yeah. Well, I'm just looking forward to when it turns into one of the, like, mega towers from, cyberpunk

yeah because that's what I guess it will become it's probably yeah just turn each shop into like a house uh-huh see they can make money off that as well like you can pay to make the this the glass see through and then you just see people like

living in their house uh-huh playing cold playing death stranding yeah playing metal good solid too um a couple more here before we wrap this one up

um This I thought was crazy. The Ned Gens said hello jar long time bear, first time bear here. You've talked about the fiendish UK driving theory test, but I was wondering if you were aware of the current nightmare situation that is booking the practical test. It's almost impossible to book a test in some places now, particularly in big cities such as London, where I am. This is partially due to the backlog, but also because companies are buying up test slots and then selling them on the black market for inflated press. prices that range from about 60 pounds to a few hundred pounds. I'm worried I'll never get my license, not because I'm a bad driver, but because I can't get a test without paying off a bloody dastardly devilish rogue. What is happening, bro? What? Yeah.

I mean, my driving instructor, organize my test for me. Like, I didn't have to book it myself. I didn't either, but I did a week long intensive and we're in the town, you know? yeah but that that it is a thing there's like a bit since COVID there's been this huge backlog um yeah that's abysmal I would have thought after two years nearly in year three since the end of lockdowns and stuff that they would have been able to bounce back but if it's the selling yes selling it on the black market how the hell does that even work It's like every single market is just that now.

You know, you try and buy tickets for music, live music. And then it's just like a bunch of bots. Everyone's Bolton for the black market. A bunch of bots just like buy it at a speed you can't compete with. And then they sell it second hand. Yeah, these Russian bots be making bang. Yeah, it's wild. But that also kind of sums up London as well.

Yeah. Just the English. Tax. Infrastructure. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Soz, best of luck to you. Maybe, like, go on a little trip to a small town and book it out there, get it done. It'd be easier, too.

Theoretically. Just don't go swind of my men. Although, they probably could do with the cash. Okay. Oh, bloody. Let's end on this one from Solid 212. Recommended YouTubers recently. Anyone's shoutout? I've only got one.

What I'm obsessed with. Um, I sent you a couple of his videos. He's like all over the internet. He's just like appeared in the last year. He's called like Daniel something. Let me get his exact name. Oh, this guy is. It's pretty out of pocket content.

Um... He's called Daniel Henschel, where he does these like extreme thumbnails and extreme titles. Yeah. With the joke often being that, but then he just, this performance he whips out in these videos. I don't know how much he's preparing, how much is just off the cuff. But it's, yeah, it's all crazy. He's the cock you want, boing, boying guy. he um we were talking about method actors earlier and yeah he's method i think he's 100% method

there's a really funny video this morning um cops like pull him over and get and get him out of his car because he's filming at the time he's got like a shirt on that stained him like fake blood and he's holding a knife while screaming and then he's got to like explain he's risking it so absurd um yeah yeah he has this he has this video is like a compilation of these unhinged TikToks he's been making but I think I think he's been like taken down or deleted because he was like playing this therapist character and he was like giving relationship advice and it was like the most toxic like evil stuff and obviously the people who use TikTok are like dumb enough to uh yeah actually like

believe it I don't know it just tickles my kind of troll these sensibilities it's just taking it to an extreme I haven't quite seen before you know he's got all these characters he's got a priest character he's got the um the teacher I liked the drinking one yeah he's getting like abstract with it he's got this like law where he's got like a multiverse with this all. Jesus Christ. And yeah, that was a really good one I sent you where it's like,

you are the beer. And I'm an alcoholic relapsing. He's like screaming and it's like all muffled through the bubbles of the audio and it's just a crazy, crazy extreme content. But yeah, you have anyone's shout out? All the Eldon Ring YouTubers

for sure. Who in particular there? Um the thing with YouTube is that I have amassed a list of channels I'm subscribed to so enormous and I never get

like given their videos so you could like hit the bell on all of them and shit but I don't want my phone fucking explode from all the notifications so like finding all of them um not an alden ring YouTuber but just a like a retrospective video game essay guy I've been enjoying is fuzzy slippers what kind of style just like it's super chill long form yeah yeah yeah like an hour minimum pretty much and he's just he

he's just really nice he cracks little funny jokes and yeah I I like his voice as well yeah yeah he's one of those ones that whenever he uploads it's like

oh stick that on I'm more like listening to it for the the niceness more than I am the substance yeah not that the substance is bad like he I appreciate his um

his opinions and stuff like he he did a a mafia three one oh yeah and he was like loads of people were really disappointed with this but I kind of liked it and like he goes into wine and stuff and it's like it's it's fucking nice

to not hear someone like just dog shes all over something, anything. Obviously, that gets the most views. But also in the same genre. I think his name is Monty Zander. A gaming dude. Yeah, let me double check.

Monty Zander. It sounds like Auntie Zula. I feel like a bunch of these channels have really bad names. Like a hard to remember Yeah And aren't very good branding Not that it's Monty Zander rocks though

He makes really good videos Um Let's go I think you might be Scottish as well Which is a rare demographic Of YouTube True it's like mostly Australians

Brits and Americans I guess Yeah Those are the accents you tend to you most Yeah yeah And just like Europeans Uh huh

Like every other video will be a European but you can never tell which yeah it's just you know merged into one blob yeah yeah I'll give those two yeah yeah I think that's it bro boo boo thanks for watching good luck I guess kurcha kurcha that's what the green one says I remember. I remember. Left my tea too long. Got a ring round the top. Is it true that tea stains your tummy?

stains your teeth, right? Does it stain your tummy? But ain't other things in there that's staining it. You know what I'm saying? I sound nasally today. Huh? Sound like a pig just born. Sometimes I sound nasally, sometimes I sound chesty, sometimes I sound...

Just been born? Do you want to go first or second, bro? I went first last time, I believe, so I'll go second this time. It makes it more of a challenge. You know, when you don't know what's coming. Oh, you don't know what's coming with this? Should I do my YouTuber voice for it? Yeah, oh, I noticed, well, I didn't notice.

I read a comment that pointed it out, and then I couldn't not notice it. But it was this, like, this video essay talking about a celebrity. Uh-huh. It was Jim Carrey or something. Yeah. And the first comment was like, I can't listen to this because his inflections are so annoying. Uh-huh. Where he talk up and up.

Uh-huh. And then always end the sentence on a down. Yeah. And he would do that for every sentence. Like up, up, down. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And once you notice it, it's like, Jesus Christ, this is so droning and driving insane.

There's a certain YouTuber I won't name names who does that. And it's like maddening. Every sentence is da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da. D-uh, oh my God, it's so, like, monotonous. Yeah, it's, like, repetitive. It's like a bad beat. Bad beat. It's like a bad beat.

Bad beat. Baby. Baby beat. Baby beat. Uh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh. Baby's on the beat. Baby's on the beat, y'all. D-da.

Um, I guess this is the baby section of the patron section, we read your names, and I filter out the really bad ones. Also, for next episode, can you change every name to baby? Really something that alludes to a baby. Mm-hmm. Bha-ma-baby. Something like this. Baby on the beat, y'all. So, this is the jar of patron names for November 24.
