Starting point is 00:00:00 I'm more than just some geek. I rescued the princess. I stopped the reapers from wiping out all life in the galaxy. I, a mortal, took revenge on the gods. I vanquish not one, but 16 colossal beasts to save the woman I loved. I brought down the entire umbrella corp. I assassinated the entire temple. order. I escaped from Silent Hill. I chose the fate of an underwater city. I learned that
Starting point is 00:00:41 the cake is a lie. I'm a gamer and welcome to episode 22 of Corncast. I'm your host Alex, joined by the Rick and Morty follower himself, James. Good afternoon, morning, evening or night. I am the biggest Morty fan of them all. Yeah, I'm here today. And the Rick follower, Jim. Rick follower. I thought James was the Rick and Morty follower.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Yeah, and you're just the Rick follower. I guess in the cast I'm sort of the most Rick-like. And last but not least, we have the multi-follow himself, Ruben. Yeah, I walked away for the whole opening monologue because I realized I hadn't filled it my water and I was like, yeah, it's going to take a little while.
Starting point is 00:01:28 I'll just quickly walk towards it. The number one game is... No, what is it? Cake is a lie. Cast. I'd forgotten about that shit. The response to that game. Gamers are just cringy, dude.
Starting point is 00:01:41 You can't avoid it. You don't get to say that. Why? I was there. I live for it. I live through Skyrim. You're a game here. You're cringed like the rest of us.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Yeah, I just hide behind the irony, you know? I'm... I'm not gaming. I'm the actual least gamer out of all of us. No, you're a gamer. Okay, explain, by definition, if I am a gamer. What's the highest round you've got to and black up zombies? Anything past like 15 is boring.
Starting point is 00:02:17 Yeah, there's a gamer. Yeah, that's the most gamer thing I've ever heard. Based gamer take. Let's Google what a gamer means. Oh, I'm getting that great movie by... You need it to be defined? Yes. Maybe you're not a gamer.
Starting point is 00:02:31 What... An athlete who relishes competition, a person who regularly plays computer or video games, and I'm the former. Well, I think that a gamer is somebody who, you know, they... It's not that they don't have a life. It's that they choose how many.
Starting point is 00:02:50 And I think that's, in essence, what a gamer is. and it helps if they do hate some sort of minority party or women because in the 90s like everyone hated nerds and gamers and shit yeah and it was it was it was just not the status quo so in the early 2000s in the right the true rise of gaming that early gaming they gamers felt like they had a lot to prove I think hence the fucking insane cringe now they fucked it all because now gamers hate themselves and everybody else they're still as hateful they still hate everyone else just as much
Starting point is 00:03:27 as they did before. Well actually speaking of gamers, let's do a bit of housekeeping, just a couple comments from the last episode, because we talked about cyberpunk and crunch and stuff and that annoyed a few people. George Roberts
Starting point is 00:03:44 got annoyed with James saying, I think it's a little unfair of James to blame gamers for how cyberpunk turned out. I've read this comment, and I can just say I explained my point like an idiot. because I am an idiot and I'm basically illiterate. I'm saying that you can't complain about games
Starting point is 00:04:02 while you still pre-order them and buy them on launch every time. They don't give a shit about us, they want our money. If we don't give them the money instantly, gaming will change. Gamers have to make a change by not giving them money instantly. That's my point, basically. I guess it's just a hype machine phase. If you want an industry to change,
Starting point is 00:04:23 The only people who can change it are the consumers. If we want bad launches to be fixed, we just don't have to give them money until they're fixed. You just don't consume on day one. I've been doing that for years. Yeah, and there's another comment from Schmooze, who said, it's insane to think that anyone actually believes a person needs to physically and mentally exert themselves
Starting point is 00:04:46 to the detriment of their well-being in order to create art. Yeah, I think this was something I said or something. I remember saying that and then immediately regretting it, but it is like innate to just the workplace, isn't it? Isn't that just what every, like, business kind of wants? Yeah, they seem to think that born from like pressure, it's like, yeah, those last two hours and it's like, well, it's actually only sort of like, if you think about it, you've worked on something, let's say it's been 20 hours and you're fucking tired and
Starting point is 00:05:16 you get it done. Let's imagine when people are writing an essay, it gradually people just start rushing things. That's what I can think of as essays and working on them late. because they're in tomorrow or something. You just start rushing it. And you just look at the last, like, if you were to read it back, which you probably wouldn't because you'd probably just submit it because, you know, you're doing it the back before.
Starting point is 00:05:33 The end is just garbage. Like the whole last half will just be utter shit. Yeah, I guess it's just the sort of contradiction of creativity and then turning it into a monetizable, repeatable process that you can launch on a disc every few years. We're, guess, digitally now. Yeah. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Like, none of us work in the games industry. We don't know what it's like in there. And finally, a bit more lighthearted. A puffins said, there's no way a human being could knock out a giraffe. I don't know if you've ever seen a giraffe skull, but they're significantly bigger than what you might imagine and very dense. Their primary method of, what, intrastific competition
Starting point is 00:06:18 is slamming their heads against each other. There's no way a human could generate more force than that. We're not talking about a human. We're talking about Mike Tyson in his mind. The peak human was the question, I believe, right? I'm looking at a giraffe skull here. And besides the top part is obviously where they would smack each other. And that is thick.
Starting point is 00:06:41 But on the side, it doesn't look all that thick. Yeah, so you're telling me Mike Tyson on a step ladder would not be able to knock clean a giraffe? I don't know, dude. I don't know. There's only one way to find out. Is that a Harry Hill? Yeah, fight.
Starting point is 00:07:00 I haven't thought about Harry Hill. Should we talk about Harry Hill for a bit? Only if it's TV birth to. Yeah, I was going to say, can we talk about TV birth, please? Yeah. Do you remember religiously watching it as a child? I never liked it. I watched every episode and I loved it.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Yeah, it's how of me and James... What was your favourite aspect? Yeah. It's sort of like those I guess Monday morning TV burp conversations Yeah But
Starting point is 00:07:31 Yeah and the catchphrase is the fight thing Did you watch TV burp? Or yeah When he said fight That's hilarious Really funny Have you actually seen it since though Since being a child
Starting point is 00:07:43 Have you seen it? No It's not It's the cringiest thing I've actually seen on TV It was unbearable But it's Is it like the thing where it's like, this is fine for kids or is it actually just a bit like weird?
Starting point is 00:07:56 No, it's generally terrible. Like, because as a kid, obviously, it's like a, it's like Gogglebox shit, basically. It's just commentary on the TV shows of the week. Like, as a kid, I didn't, yeah, that's what TV work was. And obviously, I didn't watch any of the shows. It was just like waiting for Howie Hill's funny, funny little comments. Is shit like you've been framed, like, still on TV? There isn't Harry Hill in that now?
Starting point is 00:08:25 No, Howie Hill is. Yes, yes. Yeah, no, it is. But I'm pretty sure they don't do... James, can you explain who Harry Hill is to people who don't know what we're talking about in the mob family in New York? And he came over and hosted a children's TV show. Yeah, there wasn't a children's TV show, though. It went up at like 5 o'clock.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Yeah, it had that, it was, yeah, it had that edge to it. It had the appeal. It could appeal to both children and adults. Yeah, it was sort of the perfect piece of media ever crafted. Let's see what Harry Hill is actually doing what he's doing now. Because isn't he like an adopter? Yeah, he's like the Kim Jong, the backstory, yeah. Kim Jong backstory.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Yeah, you know, um. the guy from the hangover and the Transformers movies, he's like a doctor, he's like a trained doctor qualified doctor He quit because he didn't feel in control of what was happening He's still registered on the general medical council's list
Starting point is 00:09:36 of registered medical practitioners Okay Do you think he felt in control on the set of Transformers He trained in neurosurgery He's a gene God damn Howie Hill He is still
Starting point is 00:09:52 doing stuff is called Harry Hills world of TV and that is from this year he's basically done how he hills just stuff since like 2006 to 2016 TV that all goes apart you can just go be Harry Hill neurosurgeon but he's also an actor so oh really anything notable he's been in yeah you've been from the Harry Hill movie from 2013 oh wait is that real Fuck. How did I miss this? Grossed like 3.4 million. Off a budget of what?
Starting point is 00:10:33 26p. Harry Hill movie. There's not really a lot of... Is it just like a chicken fight, but with Harry Hill and a kind of cost you? The plot, he goes on a road trip to Blackpool with his grandma or something, but then he finds out his hamster and he has a week to live. Okay, that sounds like a classic Harry Hill sort of antic Johnny Vegas is in it, so you know
Starting point is 00:11:01 Right, okay Well, it's Christmas everybody Well, it was Christmas a few days ago as of recording this How was it? COVID Christmas, a bit weird, eh? Cozy Christmas was the best Christmas I've ever had I'm not joking To elaborate? It was a nice Christmas because I did something different.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Yeah, I guess that's the... It'll always be remembered as a different Christmas, that's for sure. Well, in short, we watched all of the Star Wars movies, all of the prequels in one sitting. Yeah, I enjoyed how the Phantom Manus started off in the background, but by the end of Attack of the Clones, everyone was in, you know? All the family was into that one, and then by the time Revenge of the Sith came on,
Starting point is 00:11:52 The tears were flowing. The laughs were roaring. We were all crying for George Boyd to come back. Revenge of the Sith is... I also, by chance, happened to watch them. I happened to watch the preicles as well. I didn't even know you were watching them. And I just happened to watch them as well.
Starting point is 00:12:10 It was never part of the plan, but somehow they just seep in. They just got in. And, you know, Revenge of the Sith, I always get to the same point, like 45 minutes in. I'm just like, nah. I just can't be bothered. As the bureaucracy begins, that's when it starts getting interesting. For me, it's around the time where Anakin is talking to Yoda about his like dreams and all that. That's where I usually, I just like, no, I'm checking out.
Starting point is 00:12:34 I find the movies fascinating because they're shit, but I like watching them simply because of Oon McEwan and Palpatine. I don't even know how to say his name on the time. And some sick action scenes. The action scenes. Yeah, the action scenes aren't even that good. I just love the No, they're sick, there's some awesome ones
Starting point is 00:12:57 Attack of the Clones has Like, the people say about the action scenes Attack of the Clones has awful action scenes Well no, the lightsaber jewels Specifically are really shit In Attack of the Clones You don't like weird CG face Count Duku
Starting point is 00:13:13 That's not good until Revenge of the Sith Yeah, I mean that doesn't bother me It's just that like There's a bit And Jim had noticed it, because I mentioned it to him earlier, and you played it too. During the Anakin versus Duke bit after everyone's been knocked down. And he's waiting to be revived by someone like. Anyway, game joke.
Starting point is 00:13:34 They just does cuts between these close-ups of them, and it's just like blue, like, red light and darkness. They're just like hiding. Have we got anything choreograph of this? No, all right. Just do that then. And then when Anakin gets his arm cut off, it's not like a believable. Spoilers for Attack of the Clans. Everybody, sorry.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Yeah, it's not even believable because he just sort of like throws his right arm out after like a clash that it doesn't make sense for him to and just gets his arm cut off. He like just invites it to happen because the script demands it. Maybe it's because he's a part of one. Maybe it's because he's actually...
Starting point is 00:14:13 Yeah, you need to go on a Star Wars theory video and actually see what was really happening. He was doing it on purpose. Yeah, like actually it was so-and-so's influence. The Star Wars, the Force willed it. The Force willed it. The wills willed it. It's as simple as that.
Starting point is 00:14:27 The wheels will do it. I hate arguments like that. It's like the same reason people will, when Destiny Law fans or any video game law fans, they get a bit too serious about it. And it's like, yeah, well, it does still need to be a game, though, guys, because that's what it was to start with. It's a game.
Starting point is 00:14:45 So. Be nice if any of that story was in the game, too. Yeah, not just in like. Does Destiny fans like the story of the, last expansion, because I can't even remember it. No one thinks that the story is any good that they show in cutscenes and shit, but they like what law, it invites
Starting point is 00:14:59 you usually. It's stocking to the gym. Yeah, I just want a normal bungee campaign, but they don't do that anymore. Yeah, any other thoughts on Christmas? Get anything nice? Anything epic? I got a few plants and a couple candles.
Starting point is 00:15:18 I got something pretty, I got a nice thing from my favourite movie. Yeah. I'm really happy about that. What is your favourite movie? It's Fast and Furious. Okay, so what did you get there? I got something I have to build.
Starting point is 00:15:38 Really? I got this really nice... Oh. Lego... ...charger. Are you going to build it? No. It's fucking Lego.
Starting point is 00:15:49 Oh, this one, yeah. I don't understand it more for the more air-fix type stuff. You know, that's like way hard to work. No, I'm going to, I'm going to build it. You're not going to build the tank. You've got a time limit. The tank, you bought me like the most difficult air-fix thing to like make. I never wanted to get you that.
Starting point is 00:16:06 I wanted to just get a stupid little model of the type one, whatever the fuck that tank was called. I don't know what they're called. I just wanted to get a stupid little model of it, but I couldn't. The only thing I could get was a fucking kit you had to build. And I was buying it. like he's not going to fucking build this and then he didn't
Starting point is 00:16:21 I know I might I will one day I just can't do it in my own because this is like those things are so difficult to make where if you if you start doing it and then you have to pack it away it'll never get done you've got to have it like out for like years
Starting point is 00:16:37 to like gradually build so that's why you allocate an hour on a Sunday to build a bit of the tank and you make it like a tiny bit of progress yeah and then you've got pack it all the way and get all the paint out and then prepare the stuff It's just easier to do it. It just seems like a nightmare, you know, just get rid of it, fuck it.
Starting point is 00:16:52 No, I'd rather sell it, but I'm going to make it. I'm going to see that tank through. And by this time I might have like an ASMR channel so I can do an ASMR tank building. I hear you put the sticker on. Nice. Can you do an ASMR eye video? Like an eye cleaning video or whatever the fuck is? Can you make eyes?
Starting point is 00:17:17 No. Yeah, I'm not the one that watches it. You're the one that knows all the eye-clean law. And there's only one reason that I like them. It's because I have those exams so much as a child because my eyes were fucked. It's just like it brings back my childhood. It's like the only thing I remember.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Was that the highlight of your childhood? Jesus Christ. Yeah, like genuinely. Like, that's dark. Yeah, for me it's just like Wotto. You know? They might be Wotto at ASMR. I'm a titan...
Starting point is 00:17:51 I'm a titarian. No, no, no, no, there is. There is, there is, there is, there is actually one. No, there's not. I'm gonna, I'm gonna search this. I got some marmite, which has my name on it. Jor a marmit with my name on it. How does that work?
Starting point is 00:18:08 Well, you can pay a tenor to, like, have marmite, like a marmite jar sent and have, like, the label customized to say, something I was given that okay there's what there's one upload I found role play WOTO ASMR yeah intentional accent wing sounds T-14 hyperdrive generator it doesn't seem to order corn I was trying to get people's Alexa units to wood or corn what this guy's talking expert guest Jacob comes on the show to discuss the tingly ear feel of ASMR oh oh it's just the name with their podcast, okay.

Starting point is 00:19:09 Is that actually, like, there's what they're going to be. There isn't, James. You lied to me. Yeah, that's because I... I found that first result. But there's loads of Star Wars ASMR if you want to be interrogated by Storm Troop or something or get four... No, are you serious? Just search it!

It's just like a podcast, but you're just a bit closer than normal. It's because ASMR is like a, I don't know, sorry, word is ubiquitous, but it's just like a term for just things that I don't know. So you get A.S.M. It's just become associated of like, like, nicely balanced sound or noises that relax you. That's basically it.
Starting point is 00:20:52 I thought, I thought, like, it was about the, like, gross mouth noises. No, that's, that's mouth A-Smart. It's like noises, just like tapping. A-Smar just refers to you getting the tingling sensation that begins on the scalp and moves out of the back of the neck and upper spine. Oh, then that's where there's so many different types. It's because you've got to, like, find what it works for you. You know, you can receive an ASMR. the only thing is
Starting point is 00:21:17 I want to say ASMR response but the R and ASMR is response but yeah it's like ASMR response I'm just like listening to a song that you think is really good like writing on a piece of paper like in complete silence is actually quite relaxing

Starting point is 00:22:11 Because it's just, uh, it's just, uh, It's just a heater is what it is and I've got one already that I can cook my chicken in. Does anyone understand this thing? Is it like a, I guess it's like a marketing thing? Yeah, it's a marketing stunt, but the whole thing is just it's. But can you buy one? No, I don't think you so. I don't think it's an actual thing.
Starting point is 00:22:32 Is it just like a little microwave? What actually is it? It's just an oven. No, listen, the KFC console is a... a home video game console developed by KFC Gaming and Cooler Master. After its initial announcement in June of 2020, it was widely believed to be a hoax until its official launch in December. The console boasts various features including ray tracing, up to 4K resolution and 240 frames per second.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Yeah, the Cooler Master. But you can also keep your finger-looking chicken in there and keep it warm. It's just an oven for chicken. That can also game. No, it can't game. Have you actually seen it? The whole thing is just an oven. Yeah, surely that's antithetical to like,
Starting point is 00:23:26 isn't the reason you have like fans in your PC is to keep it cool and keep the air flip, like it's a certain temperature? No, it's using the warmth. What do you mean it's using the warmth? The heat palms. It just through it, through the, and radiates past the meat. You keep the meat warm, but also ventilates. your heat it seems like it's like geothermal energy it's genius well james are you

Starting point is 00:31:02 I just sat there silently through the whole thing, like, way too. I was like, yeah, James never does it, so I'm going to make him do it this time. I did say it. No, you didn't. No, you didn't. Oh, for fuck sake. Did you have a music? Oh, fuck.
Starting point is 00:31:16 You were eating your fucking curry, weren't you? No. Welcome to the second half of the Corn Curse, where we answer questions from the Corncast community. Head over to the Jar Media subreddit. God, it's confusing to remember all the names of all this shit. And leave a question in the suggestion thread. We're going to start off with this one from Joseph Sekhan. We know the cast are very critical of capitalism, particularly James,
Starting point is 00:31:40 but no other socio-economic system would have given us two Madagascar sequels, one spinoff movie and two spin-off shows. So I ask you, was capitalism not worth it for this alone? Only capitalism would bring out shit movies after the first one was shit. So it's not a good thing. No, that series only improved, my friend. No, Madagascar 3 is worse than 2. I don't know about that.
Starting point is 00:32:07 I think Madagascar 2 is much funnier than 3. 3 is like good for about 20 minutes and then it really just falls off for me. I've got counter-argument. Fire Wars. Every single movie after the first trilogy is shit. Not true. If you said early you didn't like Empire. I'm not a fan.
Starting point is 00:32:26 Man of Empire, no. That's because you're a... You don't even... I can't believe you. No, to be fair, I did watch it when I didn't have like a brain. Like, I was like, what, 17 at the time? I didn't have critical thinking then, so of course I'd think it's bad. There wasn't enough race cars and...
Starting point is 00:32:42 I aren't race cars in any of them. No, pod racing. No. It's not... There's not cars in them. Because it's not fast and furious, so I don't like them. Because I didn't... I was a dumb... Not then. I am now, but now at least I can understand why I like my things.
Starting point is 00:33:04 To answer the question, though, it is, it's the best thing to come from capitalism. It's entertainment. Fast and Furious is the best thing that's come from capitalism. Yeah, First and Furious is entertainment for some people. Yeah, the new one looks absolutely off the chain, you know? But... Have you seen that trailer? It's like Indiana Jets.
Starting point is 00:33:26 but all the action scenes are in like you're in like a car at the same time but I've got counter-argument to that big mouth okay okay you're right 8267-4-8971-9-2-8271-92 8276 4 6 says zombie pigmen Alex's favorite thing ever is mentioned on previous occasions have apparently been removed from Minecraft No, have they? No way, there's no way they've actually... Is that true? I don't think they have.
Starting point is 00:34:03 They're sort of the most important thing. Like when somebody says Minecraft, what's the image that comes into your head? Minecraft Stephen, Stupid Smash Bros. No, zombie pig man. I tried to search zombie pigmen, but it auto-search zombie pig menu. And there's like a barbecue place? Okay. is this not true then
Starting point is 00:34:27 why would they leave a comment like that they look slightly different they just have a makeover that's all they're still zombie pigmen they just have like ears now and a snail oh let me see this so they look more like pigs so they just updated the design yeah um I'd say yeah because before it wasn't the clearest that it was even a pig
Starting point is 00:34:47 it just kind of looked like a just a normal Steve sort of so I'm okay with this design actually this new one Thoughts? Thoughts on what? I'm not really a Minecraft person, you know? Yes, you are. I'm not.
Starting point is 00:35:02 What's the question now, though? Because the pigmen are still in the game. What? I guess just thoughts on their new look. Sorry? Yeah, I'm fine with that. It still looks like the same thing. Actually...
Starting point is 00:35:16 Yeah, I'll start on a panic that they're removed because... No, it looks way better. Yeah, it does look way better. Damn, nice one. When was the last time you guys played Minecraft? Because I haven't touched it. for many, many years. Yesterday.
Starting point is 00:35:27 It's like completely different now. I went on it yesterday. Really? What is it like now? It's still definitely Minecraft. I just went on it to get a ray tracing thing. Have the like updates and changes
Starting point is 00:35:39 actually made it better? Expanded on it? Yeah, I think so. I mean, I've seen a... Some of the stuff you can do on it. It seems like there's quite a lot of options now. It's quite a lot of in-depth RPG elements now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:54 Yeah, I don't like it because of that. And a lot of it really does just seem to come down to just like the, you know, for example, Luke the Notable has his series that's been really popular. He just survives, you know, like 2,000 days in hardcore Minecraft. And for him, it just seems to be like just improving stuff all the time. You know, fuck it, I'm going to make everything out of Emerald. I guess that's what you can do in it. At a certain point, you know, the game becomes as expansive as sort of you want it to be.
Starting point is 00:36:22 You know, you want to keep going? Sure, hey, then just get loads of stuff. Why not? I guess that's why these survival games stick around as long as they do. So you can just fuck around with the sandbox, basically. Okay. So Quintas has one for us. Did Jim finish Hollow Night yet?
Starting point is 00:36:39 If so, what did he think? Also, did any other cast members try it out? I actually did try it out. I didn't finish it. Annoyingly, I just had like a big break from it. And with like a Metrovania style game If you have a break
Starting point is 00:36:57 It's really hard to get back in Like you don't know what you have You don't know what you need But I mean I played it for a long time And it's really good Yeah I'm a huge fan of that Art direction
Starting point is 00:37:10 That they went with And also I just downloaded it on Game Pass And just fucked around In like the intro bit It felt really good Yeah It's really smooth And responsive
Starting point is 00:37:22 responsive Whenever they add stuff, it all feels just as good. That's like it. Like new abilities. I was playing it yesterday because I got it in the steam cell and I didn't really like it. I was sort of like, I meant to like this, but I'm not liking it. Well, you didn't like how it felt? No, I had no issues of how it felt.
Starting point is 00:37:43 I don't care too much for the art stuff on myself. Yeah. And then, I don't know, I was just going through it, doing some stuff. And then I died during a bit. And I realized, oh, right. And then I got put back to what is effectively a bonfire. And I was like, oh, it's a game like this. Okay, well, I didn't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:37:58 So I just refunded it because I'm not, I can't, I cannot be fucking bothered doing that. Because any other thing is, I've got Def Stranding on the go anyway. And there's no way I'm going to finish fucking Hollow Night right now. So it's not going to happen. And I'll just end up like, Jim, I'll play it for an hour or something less than Jim did and then just never go back to it. So I was like, yeah, that's it. It is really long.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Yeah. I just wasn't into it at all. don't care for the art style and I don't know I've played ori in the last year I've done my Metroidvania for a while yeah fair enough yeah I had to restart secretary the other day because um you just get rusty don't you with games that require certain things from you stuff just makes no sense anymore just like well I don't even know what button this is I don't even know what the fuck the game is asking of me anymore no you shut up smosh has a question for us hi everyone I made a Reddit account just to ask
Starting point is 00:38:52 this question on a topic which I've recently become very interested in, and it's very relevant considering you guys have been talking about the monarchy. I would be very curious to hear what y'all Mingus have to say about Princess Diana, considering she was quite an icon in your country, particularly what you think about the royal family mistreating her, her husband cheating on her with a married woman, emotionally abusing her, leading her to become bulimic and to self-harm, the rule family mocking her for said things, apparently saying things like, oh, so is that the food you're going to disappear also? What? Is that correct? Also, is that food going to disappear also? Okay, I just misread it. Before she ate.
Starting point is 00:39:30 What do you think about the conspiracy theory that the royal family ordered her death? Because she was dating an Arab person, which would taint the family. Also, what are your thoughts on the whole media versus celebrity dynamic? As Rubin said, people are obsessed with the royal family, and they were particularly obsessed with her. This led to her constantly being harassed by the press, which eventually led to her death, speeding away from the tabloids. After that, everyone hated the tabloids, but it was precisely because of them that the tabloids were interested in her. Sorry for the lengthy question. I think, I think the main thing I'm just going to say, I can't you bother to address every element of it, but I think a lot of the people who would say,
Starting point is 00:40:09 oh, Diana, how she was so lovely, are the same people that adore the royal family to this day and defend them despite their being it's not so much evidence but you can make reasonably tenable links between the raw family and her death there are definitely things that you could think yeah sure you know the royal family a bit shady so I could get behind that yeah and all of us are a bit young to really be around when yeah she died in 97 so yeah it's the year we I mean, all the, like, tabloids and shit. Well, yeah, it would have been three. What I know of her death, it doesn't, is not, I don't think it's just a normal, it happened death.
Starting point is 00:40:54 Like, and. It is really weird. And she even wrote in a letter that Charles was going to kill her, like, before it even happened. So the royal family definitely killed her, without doubt. I'm pretty sure that's like a fact. It's not in a conspiracy at this point. I just, when I was looking up, like, trying to find. the worst pop vinals I could I was so shocked that they're like selling a Princess Diana one
Starting point is 00:41:18 like a black dress it's so fucking dark it's so disturbing to me so distasteful that I hate I despise all your family like I can't say anything nice about them I don't want to be asked why is it all like coming out now I guess like people seem to be like is it just like slowly changing as the times do now that like everyone actually has the information, like access to it in a greater way. Yeah, the royal family probably had more control of the media, but now, like, it's pretty hard to control what people can see online and stuff. But with the whole media versus celebrity thing,
Starting point is 00:42:03 what was that British pop band or whatever, little mix? Like, she left recently because of something like this, right? because she was being bullied for being fat or something? I'm not sure, exactly. Isn't that just media full stop? That's not English specific. That's just the news in the world.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Well, it's just another, like, written example I'm thinking of from recent times, you know? Yeah, I hate all tabloid shit. I can't believe people actually read that shit. I like tabloid still as popular as ever. Like, I'm so detached from that. world they definitely are there was something actually I was going to say we're talking about the newspapers in this country in particular Britain is one of the it's it's a Britain is
Starting point is 00:42:53 really weird in terms of it's it just it's just it's newspapers the newspaper can can more or less ascend you to this untouchable status in this country yeah yeah it's really weird the way they will do that you can get away of anything and we've seen it time and time again you've seen it with which is just anyone it's like if the tabloids have decided we like this one you can do anything you want you know not even not even just like
Starting point is 00:43:20 as major as something like Jimmy Saville but as minor as I don't know I can't think of anything No that was not my point was to make it not as something as extreme Jimmy Saville is that something simple I can't think of anything Charles
Starting point is 00:43:35 just like you can just do anything you fucking want but then if you're like Prince Harry and Megan Markle who by to me someone who reads something between the lines of it all or to any of us you know I'm like no they actually seem like they're all right those two but the press have decided no
Starting point is 00:43:50 they're fucking awful and lots of people will follow the you know follow the press's lead with that but aren't multiple tabloids and newspapers owned by like the same company uh yeah they're like news court
Starting point is 00:44:07 so it's yeah like it's all it's all corrupt anyway. Morley corrupt, just terrible. Pierce, yeah, fuck tabloids. I hope he'd be dead soon enough. What's his name?
Starting point is 00:44:23 Yeah. Who? The guy that owns... Is Morkin? No, no, the guy that owns... Oh, he's caught. Oh my God, what's his name? Yeah, I know he you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:44:33 The Sky guy. Isn't he else Murdoch? Rupert Murdoch. Yeah, Rupert Murdoch. Yeah, he'll be dead soon enough. Does he not got like a sun or something You can Yeah, that's true
Starting point is 00:44:44 Yeah, it doesn't end with one They've got their legacy Yeah It's a never ending cycle And was it a pessimism A cycle of pessimism It's self-fulfilling cycle Of pessimism
Starting point is 00:44:59 Yeah, that's the one, thank you Potential skin 9511 has one Rank the Halo games from worst To best This is Okay, are we including games like... Halo Legends?
Starting point is 00:45:15 Don't, not Spartans. Yeah, we shouldn't... But what about Halo Wars? I don't even know if we can include Halo Wars. No, that does count because it's actually got... No, I don't. It makes it too complicated because they're different genres. Just the main shooters.
Starting point is 00:45:27 One to five, reach an ODS2. Start with worse then, which I think I've settled on Halo 4. I actually think Halo 4 is less fun. Yeah, no, I agree. To play. When we played through it the other day, oh my God. Yeah, that's, we were all just saying at the end. It's like, yeah, this game is boring.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Holy shit. Yeah, James just noped out in that awful level, which they, like, patch so you can't skip it anymore. God damn it. And the story, too, like it, the cutscenes and everything. It's so not Halo. That's a big part. And neither is five, so it's like,
Starting point is 00:46:05 because that would be my ranking. It'll be four, then five, then whatever, to be honest although I would put my best is three I think yeah is the best one I think it's three one
Starting point is 00:46:20 two reach I it's like are you talking about it depends what element you're talking about because like the overall package of reach is probably better than two I think the campaign is probably better than two yeah I can we get behind that in the gameplay though like if you don't like it
Starting point is 00:46:38 because it kind of was going more for the Halo 1 thing with the bigger maps and having options and stuff and Halo 2 is so linear in that campaign Yeah yeah I think the REACH campaign But people love that multiplayer
Starting point is 00:46:49 I agree Halo 2 multiplayer is probably better Than Reachers though Yeah it's terrible multi Yeah but Reach has the forge Forge and theatre and everything Unfortunately that's just the case of I mean Halo 2 anniversary obviously has forge
Starting point is 00:47:02 I think maybe you should look at it like that Because it was going to say You know Halo 2 came out in 2004 Hillar Reach was a few years later. But with Hitler 2 anniversary, you can kind of see what Halo 2 would have been if they had made that game.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Then to that extent, every Halo game is an example or any game in the series is an example of what they would have done now. Because it's what they did then. But Halo 2 Anniversary, obviously, has a really good forge. In terms of, it's more...
Starting point is 00:47:31 Halo 2 anniversary's forge. It's just sort of like Reach's forge, but it's a bit newer. That's really all that is. It's not like Halo 5, it's just scripting and shit. Genuinely, really impressive. Halo 5 is Forge. Oh, yeah, I don't know. So 4, 5, ODST, 2, Reach, 1, 3?
Starting point is 00:47:52 No. Is that fair? Um, what's your one? I'd honestly say two in reach are like tied. Yeah. Yeah, I could, few and reach are very, they both, like, they both, you know, they both are, um, not so much.
Starting point is 00:48:06 disappointing but they're weaker equally equally weak yeah yeah i just feel like that's one you would really fight for if you were playing that multiplayer when it came out you know yeah because it's not the same now if you if you've never played halo and you load up the mcc now you can like kind of just look at the campaign a bit more you know objectively compared to the nostalgia of it no this this this this type of question is not easy because we never experienced them all at launch and we all experience the different points in our life like that out of doubt Halo Wars is the best for me
Starting point is 00:48:43 because I experienced that whole game everything it has to offer at the time I didn't experience Halo 3 I didn't experience Halo 1 I didn't experience Halo 2 didn't experience Halo 3 ODST didn't experience Halo Reach so Halo Wars is going to be my best then I have good memories of Halo 3
Starting point is 00:49:00 so that's obviously going to be the one after it and the rest I it's hard to say and then it's just reach but that's not a good list. If we're going objectively off what Halo campaigns, if we only talk about Halo campaigns, it'd be pre-1-2, and then reach.
Starting point is 00:49:16 I mean, that's not true. I just, I can't answer that question because there's too much there. And I'm pretty sure I've said this before, like, Halo 2 had the best, like, multiplayer. Like, I'd never experienced it, so I can't say. And Halo 3... What do you mean there's too much there?
Starting point is 00:49:35 because there's too much of this it's not it's not an objective question you know what there's no objective answer oh right we should be even focusing on on trying to get an objective answer out of it because it's just not yeah it's just like was you got to you that's all halo was anyway yeah my god tells me that three is like the best probably okay citizen hal has one for us I'm curious to hear what Jim James and Rubin think of the dark crystal if they've seen it It's in the original movie. It's in the original movie, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:10 If they haven't seen it or have no opinion on it, what is a movie from their childhood that scared the shit out of them? Thanks, let's. Yeah, Dark Crystal. That film is the scariest thing. It's scarier than most horror movies. That shit freaks me out to this day. It's a really, really awesome movie.
Starting point is 00:50:28 Do you like it in terms of the fantasy? Yeah, it's like so, it's, I can't believe it got made, like the commitment to that creepy fantasy, universe with like no holds bar like no baby shit it's just freaky as fuck really feels like a different universe yeah exactly it's like it really immerses you in that just horrific world what about reuben and james and i think what's a movie that scared shit out of you as a i think i already answered this one before because it's that um really shitty western an adaption of one mystical.
Starting point is 00:51:06 Oh, right. You didn't watch it though, did you? You just saw the trailer or something. I watched it through a door because I was so scared that. I was so curious. No, I watched it through the door because I was scared of it. So I was like, I'm scared, but I have to see what happened. It was Pan's Labyrinth.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Mm. Yeah. Yeah. That's what I was older. It was the child user. The pale. The pale, thank you. And that shit.
Starting point is 00:51:30 That shit's fucking horrid. fucking horrible. So horrible. What's that American politician that just looks exactly like the pale? Uh, Barack Obama? Let's see if I can find it. Yeah, found it. Um, yeah, search Mitch McConnell.
Starting point is 00:51:50 For God's sake. He looks exactly like the veil. Oh my god. Who is this guy? I'm just doing this. I don't know. I don't know anything about American. Oh, he's an American politician.
Starting point is 00:52:05 I like that at all. Okay, Lego Loppy, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 asks, How do Brits distinguish certain vowel noises? When I first watched your episode, Lava Island in Vanders, I was very confused, as I thought you were saying, lava and not lava.
Starting point is 00:52:23 These words honestly sounded the same to me as an American listener. How can you tell them apart? Thanks. How would an American say Lava Island, then? lava how would they say how would they distinguish between the word they'd say larva larva like larva like the wiltshire accent larva larva and lava is that just not like an english language quirk thing there's loads of words i i feel like it it's just context you know like if you said i was burnt by
Starting point is 00:53:01 lava, it's pretty easy to assume that you mean the I don't know, those farts from those little creatures are pretty lethal. James, any thoughts on lava or lava? Who actually uses, like, lava in a sentence, in a
Starting point is 00:53:18 normal everyday life? Like, I've never, ever used it. In my 23 years, I've never used lava in a serious sentence. Do you say larvae or something? to specify so people know that it's this distinct other word
Starting point is 00:53:34 but surely like the context of talking about this stuff like it's pretty obvious which you're talking about if it's in a sentence like man look at the lava coming out of that volcano I can quite easily assume
Starting point is 00:53:49 it's not the baby bugs coming out of a volcano yo I saw this crazy lava outside of my house like am I going to be talking about I mean it would be pretty weird to talking about bug lava even and then but i'm not going to be talking about fucking like magma am i you know molten lava i'm just curious why they're more drawn to you know how britt's because you know british people speak in english are just like well
Starting point is 00:54:14 fucking stupid in it that's all i got so he's fine he's he's getting all caught up on the word lava but not the word in vanders which isn't even like a word is it just made it up in vanders Vandas? What? What's an invander? Is it like the... That was the title of the episode was the Lava Island in Vanders. Cringy Cringer asks this of us. Can each of you, one at a time, say,
Starting point is 00:54:48 Business as usually, fellas? Business as usually, fellas. Business as usually fellas. Business as usually fellas. What the fuck? What the fuck are they gonna do with that? Josh Road 9 has one. Who is the patron saint of gamers?
Starting point is 00:55:08 Not talking about game devs like Miyamoto or Kajima. I'm talking about actual gamers. For example, maybe boogie or angry Jeff. Gop off, no. Gamers. Boogie the gamer? Buggy's a gamer, I guess. No, it's a, it's a... Jeff Keely, right?
Starting point is 00:55:22 No. Wait, what are we talking about right now? Who's the biggest gamer? What? No, it's like, who's the patron saint of gamers? of gamers. Donkey, maybe. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:55:33 He's pretty gamer. Yeah, that's a pretty good answer, actually. And what was your one, James? Henry Cavill. Yeah, Henry Cavill's actually good one. He spent months to playing SkyWim and got fat. Like, that's great. Based.
Starting point is 00:55:46 I saw a recent picture of him where he's like just upgraded his PC or something. Yeah. It's like showing off his rig. It's an impressive PC, man. But he does have actor money. you would expect it. Yeah, imagine what that man of steel money could buy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:03 Yeah, but he's actually spending it on a gaming PC. He's not spending it on some Gucci sliders, okay? Don't judge him. Imagine the amount of like micro-transactions he's bought. You could just buy everything in every game that he plays. He doesn't seem like the type. Honestly, I don't think he's running by... He's too much of a gamer.
Starting point is 00:56:18 If he's a true... Yeah, he's too gamer. Yeah, if he's a true... Yeah, that's what I want to hear, actually, is his opinion on that. Wait. Should we get Henry Cavalon the cursed? Yeah, let's get Henry Cavalon. I think he likes his single player games
Starting point is 00:56:32 you know like cyberpunk he does no he likes some World of Warcraft he doesn't he doesn't he's an Emma gamer yeah that is I would you think his opinion is on the Halo trilogy
Starting point is 00:56:45 he doesn't know he's a TC gamer from like he's probably he's probably missed it all too old for it no because he would have played Halo 1 when it was imported by gearbox maybe the definite edition of Halo Didn't like Nathan Philly and play Halo 3 online and stuff with his like mic on?
Starting point is 00:57:04 Yeah, he used to do that, yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember hearing about that as well. James, you're like this one from Untake New. I never understood why people liked dairy milk, as it always made my throat feel spiky and tried, and there's nowhere near as smooth, as people say it is. So I tried milker, and while it tastes nice, it did the same. Turns out I have a mild chocolate allergy. I blame jar. Excellent.
Starting point is 00:57:34 And Yogspog has a controversial one. Well, I don't know if it's that controversial. It's quite standard opinion, actually. Turkey is overrated and is the worst part of Christmas dinner. It's one of the driest meats and so hard to cook properly and generally just not as nice as any other meat on Christmas Day. Yeah. Thoughts?
Starting point is 00:57:52 Yeah. No, I agree. I said this last week. Turkey is a huge ball ache to get. right for very little return that's the best thing for christmas kind of like turkey whatever you did to the turkey alex this christmas that that's how you do turkey right yeah no that well that was a good turkey no the sprouts juicy and no there are worse meats than turkey i'm sorry but what of the main ones there's only chicken beef what other
Starting point is 00:58:25 meats are there chicken beef pork ostrich ostrich sucks what what yeah what else do people have yeah like a nut roast yeah well fuck that that just sounds it's that they suck you know I've eaten nut roast nah my nam makes a fucking delicious one yeah I got nothing against turkey I'm not turkey it's like the leanest meat or something isn't it yeah it's healthy no yeah it's healthy but it's not tasty I'm I'm staying in anti-turkey gang no it I've referenced I reckon it's really good in a sandwich as well, like a turkey stuffing sandwich. I mean, I did go through a whole phase of having like turkey slices and sandwiches and they were pretty good, but fuck turkey.
Starting point is 00:59:08 That's it. You don't get to do this. That's it. I'm staying here. I'm dying here. I'm dying in this turkey thing. What a turkey's living? Okay, let's do a couple more.
Starting point is 00:59:22 This one is another James related one. Spooky one. Not a question, but James's Big Mac order from the last week pissed me off beyond all reason. I'm going to give you guys a little bit of insider knowledge from me, someone who works in a McDonald's kitchen. Whenever someone makes a change to the order like no pickle, onions, cheese or fucking sauce, a printer prints a sticker to go on the box that lists all the changes to that particular order so you can tell it apart. When you've got about 10 orders to make and then some dickhead comes in and orders something like James's order and you need to take time. to wait for the sticker to print and make sure you make the appropriate changes. This might not sound like a big deal, but when you work in one of the busiest McDonald's
Starting point is 01:00:04 in the whole of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, orders stack up insanely quickly. So when you're waiting for the sticker to print out, you're almost definitely going to fall behind on your orders and inevitably get stressed out. So well done, James. You're the customer. Every McDonald's employee dreads. Keep up the good work and have the good rest of the cast. But I will say this. I've got to say, though, it's not the customer's problem. No, no, say this.
Starting point is 01:00:29 I'm terrible at, like, customer service stuff. They don't have the machines. I wouldn't do it. You gave me the option to, so I do. Take away the machines, then I'll just order a normal big bag. It is a crime, though, what you do. No, it is terrible. But also, I went to McDonald's 20 times in November so they can fuck off.
Starting point is 01:00:50 I gave them money. Fuck them. Should we seek out this? Is it just like too much flavor? It's actually too much flavor. Like, no. It's just like, I'm happy eating a normal Big Mac. They gave me the option to, so I'm going to make it.
Starting point is 01:01:05 No, you're clearly not, though. If you were happy with it, then you would just order it and not take half this stuff out. They gave me the option to change it. I can change it, so I wouldn't I. Like, it's the same, you can add bacon stuff. It means you've still got to print the label. It means they get more money. Like, I give them more money.
Starting point is 01:01:24 by changing stuff. Because I add stuff to it as well. So technically, I'm McDonald's best customer. Okay, whatever helps you sleep at night, my boy. Let's end on this one then from Deadly Skies. Could you guys talk about American versus British comedy? More specifically, the British notion that American comedy is stupid and lowbrow, and if there are any American comedies that you find well-written and intelligent,
Starting point is 01:01:52 and any British comedies you find, stupid thoughts we were previously talking about Harry Hill that's bad English comedy I missus Brown's boys terrible oh Keith Lemon I fucking hate Keith Lemon yeah terrible but they're not intelligent though they're just dumb the donuts but then saying that the American office is actually insulting and I hate it I hate the gifts I see of it constantly oh really I like the American office it's funny I can't stand it but once you've been on Instagram and you see your 15th car video or dog video
Starting point is 01:02:26 that's parkour parkour you begin to hate it that's a specific me thing I just want to say but I hate it I mean there's a bunch of really good examples of both yeah it's just like a bad example generalisation
Starting point is 01:02:39 but that I think there is something as someone who is from the UK that when there is like a really bad like American sitcom like big mouth or something it just it does have a certain extra layer that scratches you I do want to say
Starting point is 01:02:57 a bunch of the like English comedy TV shows on like Dave and stuff I think really suck yeah I agree no but Dave
Starting point is 01:03:09 Dave is the is a genuinely incredible channel though I mean there's shit like just lots of rubbish boring English sitcoms like not going out I don't care what anyone says
Starting point is 01:03:21 nothing memorable about that show There's a reason I'm not going out of my way to watch. No, don't, hey, all right, you watch it, Mr. What did he say? Inbetweens is a good show. Oh, you don't like the Inbetweeners, James? I haven't seen it. I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:03:41 Yeah, I remember the movie being pretty bad, but the show was good. Yeah, the movie's not great at all. Like the, what's it called? The Hangover. I know that's American, but that's bad. Yeah, fuck. thing over all of its other
Starting point is 01:03:55 fucking seagulls and shit you can't beat English comedy because of like the free lines or whatever that movie's called
Starting point is 01:04:02 actually just incredible four line they go for really subversive they tackle really subversive and controversial
Starting point is 01:04:08 subjects just like yep this that was the writer of like in the loop as well which is also like yeah very witty
Starting point is 01:04:16 there's no American comedy that's as good as that like at all um people's like whip out Seinfeld
Starting point is 01:04:23 always sunny It's always sunny It's very good We're not We can't compare a movie to a TV show It's also got to be a movie Well no
Starting point is 01:04:34 That wasn't the point It was just about comedies No but I'm saying What's better than Four Lions What's an American comedy movie That's better than Four Lions American Pye Um
Starting point is 01:04:43 Yeah there are some like Oh yeah Christmas with the Fokas Whatever that's great The Reyes of Elements Very very good Yeah, I said about it's very funny Tobrian enthusiasm people love

Starting point is 01:05:10 That's been funny the whole I started watching Futurama again and that show is really fucking good I'd say that's the best one actually personally Really? You like Futurama?
Starting point is 01:05:22 Yeah. I just seems so random I can never predict what ones James would like because I would assume you wouldn't like futureama. I love futureama.
Starting point is 01:05:33 What do you love about futureama? Name two characters. Leela. Yeah. Bender. Yes. Oh, he's done it.
Starting point is 01:05:45 He's an Amea character. Yeah. Yeah. Damn. You know your Futurama dude. Sorry, I underestimated you. I like the...
Starting point is 01:05:52 It's just the ones you search like Rule 34 I like the Lila footer Yeah, like, bend this fat role was going, woo! Then you also had that like that superhero character Don't know his name.
Starting point is 01:06:11 I just... There's a character who reminds me of character from Ratching Clank. Is that Branigan? Reminds you of Captain Quark. I don't know. I don't, who's Zach Blanagan? Yeah, there's the future one.
Starting point is 01:06:27 He's like the military commander. Zabranigan's hilarious. Is that up and Kiff? Yes. And Kiff gets pregnant. Yeah, that show's awesome. Any final thoughts then as we wrap up episode 22 of Corn Christmas?
