Starting point is 00:01:26 I always get there Only took her just a slight hint I haven't hosted in a I've been, you know, I've not been feeling confident for myself recently and I've needed to... Why is that? Because of your shit-tier opinions on something we're going to talk about. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's because you played a challenging video game and it made you feel bad because you couldn't complete it. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:01:48 I've just been feeling, like, a bit on the low recently. So I was just like, you know, I just... Okay. Host the Jogast again and I feel good about myself. So, here I am. So today, we've got some... really juicy topics ones that's going to make the fans

Starting point is 00:02:18 so can I just point out that the order that we're sitting in is JJA Brams what J J J.J.A. Star Wars man James. Anyway, please, James. Introduce us to this topic of which you speak. Okay, so I... There's been a topic in the gamer atmosphere for quite some time.
Starting point is 00:02:44 The gamer atmosphere. This is going to be a good one. Our memes are leaking now anyway, so we own that now. It's a discussion that has been going on for quite some time and it's time the Jarcast actually acknowledged. acknowledged this very serious topic very serious no jokes allowed here you know the last few episodes
Starting point is 00:03:08 we've been we've been it's all been serious and this is the most serious out of all of them this is you know make or break conversation here what I want to talk about today is difficulty in video games difficulty in video games
Starting point is 00:03:22 yes fuck off I hope the James Leg Slaps are picked up nicely on the mics Yeah, because they better be fucking worth it Because they've
Starting point is 00:03:36 Before we talk about The difficulty Let me just quickly say Apologies for anyone Watching the video For the last few Maybe this one as well Having this weird issue
Starting point is 00:03:47 With like just frames From the intro And like just random shit Just keeps appearing It's very bizarre I post onto the translation of Alex saying the issue.
Starting point is 00:03:58 Alex got a bit blazered. Wrong. And I thought it would be funny. So, sorry, guys. No, this is actually seriously, there's an issue and we're going to...
Starting point is 00:04:05 No, because I update... I've been using a 2017 version of Adobe Premiere and I... I think you're going to say a 27-year-old. No, but I updated it to the current version, and so
Starting point is 00:04:18 I was expecting some things to go wrong and it has. So, here we are. Audio's fine, though. And that's what matters. And that's what matters. And that is what matters. And that is what.
Starting point is 00:04:26 matters and that's what matters is that an like an impression what is that no it was just like I was pretending that it was lagging and it kept saying the same thing over it speaking of lag lag lags in video games back to video games or whatever like in video games you all that's not the subject you'll hate a bit of lag you shut the fuck up that wasn't the topic bro bring it back right I gave you such an in and you fucked it what are you an amateur podcaster boys it's time we talked about difficulty in video games
Starting point is 00:04:59 what about difficulty in video games would you like to discuss because I just finished Resident Evil 2 and I thought it was the perfect level of difficult it was brilliant basically there is this issue that has been discussed about difficulty in video games
Starting point is 00:05:15 and how there should be easy mode in video games specifically hard ones you mean souls born eros yep pretty much it's basically that genre game and
Starting point is 00:05:28 should they be easier would you play it if it was easier yes would you play it if it was easier the same game but you can make it easier no I rest my case
Starting point is 00:05:47 I think that's the appeal of those games but there's nothing lost in the game being easier people who play it hard you mean having the option for people yes and I think a loads of people about hating on you know of viewers because they're like
Starting point is 00:06:03 games should have an easy mode there's loads of clickbait articles about easy mode and games so elitist gamers are like going hard on them because they think that's wrong well the games media are being quite elitist about it as well I saw a headline from software should
Starting point is 00:06:19 respect their players and add an easy mode. That's just the clickbait headline. Yeah, that is. But then that causes arguments about it and it's constant at the moment. I've seen stuff all the time about it and I don't get it. I don't understand what the issue is with having an easier mode
Starting point is 00:06:35 in games. I don't get that. Specifically with the soul's born here or that's where people are very like, no. You see, I think a core part of those games is that they're fine-tuned. that everyone is having the same experience Exactly what I was thinking
Starting point is 00:06:52 Like with a Halo game for example Like it has Take Halo 2 It has easy normal heroic and legendary Carve every first movie Yeah yeah And a bunch of them aren't right A bunch of them are scaled
Starting point is 00:07:09 It's the argument that when it When something is designed to be Like designed a certain way If you change that it's not the same It's a different experience Yeah Yeah, so it's like playing world at war on insane The thing is
Starting point is 00:07:22 The terrible experience as compared to playing it on normal I think playing Dark Souls with an easy mode on Would make the game worse And therefore someone might play the game on easy And then not have that great of a time And then to them the game is worse And I mean that's not good for the developers It's like um
Starting point is 00:07:40 We recently tried out the Switch version of Mario Super Mario Bros U Is that what it's called? Yeah whatever but they added this character who's invincible who can just go through all of the damage and it makes the game so boring yeah actually makes the game so much worse with that that literally does break the core gameplay completely having no character that is invincible that just but I mean
Starting point is 00:08:04 playing at that point what I'd say um I'd happily well I mean it's not my choice but an easy mode is good for people with like disabilities that's the thing I don't understand why so many elite gamers have an issue of it, but all it does is allow people with disabilities to be able to play games. What is the problem with that? They're not losing anything, but more people are being able to play a game. Even if it's not the same difficulty, even if it's easier, they're still having an experience. I mean, I can't speak for people with disabilities, but I mean, that's their argument.
Starting point is 00:08:39 I don't know if they've got the controller that's been made by Microsoft to make. games more accessible which is pretty awesome it's like it's it's shitty from the game it's a tricky subject because I mean they they are a minority so games are going to be made for the majority of people yeah like you can't expect every product
Starting point is 00:09:00 to be made for every person never it's okay for them to exist in their own you know system but also it's like you don't show a child a mature movie you know
Starting point is 00:09:14 so you don't like you shouldn't make a game easier for a child for the sake of accessibility that's what Nintendo does there but I mean that if you if your entire game is built around a younger audience then it's right for that game to be easier but if I don't think Souls players are very young
Starting point is 00:09:36 well I compare um well that Mario game we just talked about with Super Mario Bros 3 well the original there's no easy mode in those, they're just tough. And there's one difficulty, and that's just the way it is. Like, I've seen
Starting point is 00:09:52 argument saying that, you know, if you want to play these games, you should just start playing it and then just get the hang of it, but then that is not enjoyable. If you're going to spend 10 hours of the games, get good. I would completely disagree. The reason I love Souls games so much is because
Starting point is 00:10:08 it taught me to, like, respect its systems and I grew as a player instead of the game just making it easier for me. that's the thing it's investing the first bit of time into it but I can't be fucked to do that but I mean that's the problem with you
Starting point is 00:10:24 not the game no definitely not but if the game introduced I guess the difficulty a lot easier instead of just boom that it would be so much that doesn't change the game
Starting point is 00:10:35 that does not change the game by having it a gradual learning curve instead of it is a gradual learning curve though because just because we're literally talking about Dark Souls 1 there is no the first part of that game
Starting point is 00:10:45 I did fine up until that one boss where, no, there's no learning curve. No, it is a learning curve, otherwise, how would I have gotten from the start of the game where I was shit and beat the last boss? How can, like, I've said... Because a player from, like, if you just gave a player, the controller to fight, like, one of the harder bosses of the game, they couldn't do it. And they need to be eased in by the first bosses.
Starting point is 00:11:07 The difficulty spite in Dark Source one specifically is terrible, because I spent... To get that boss, I played about three hours, because I was trying to play with someone. So I'd actually, I could complete, up until the boss, no damage at all, easy. That's piss. But then it goes to a boss where you're stuck on a tiny bridge. How the hell, how? How are you supposed to learn how to start doing that? A tiny bridge.
Starting point is 00:11:29 Repetition. Isn't that what these whole games are built around. Yeah, the game is built around trial and error. So, like, you learn from your mistakes every time. And if you keep trying to do the same thing over and over and over, then you're going to keep failing over and over and over. What's the solution you want them to build in an easy mode? No.
Starting point is 00:11:48 No, I don't want, no, you don't just snap, make an easy mode. It's just like being... That's what the solution would require, though. They'd basically have to fine-tune two games. Like an easy mode. Yeah, that's the problem. Because, to me, Dark Souls 1 has its flaws, but in a lot of ways, is perfectly designed.
Starting point is 00:12:10 And I've never been as satisfied completing a game as I was the first time I ever beat Dark Souls won. I just don't like how there's elitism as if gamers lose something by having it open to people with disabilities and having... No, I'm definitely for that. The issue is gatekeeping. The thing is, like, these...
Starting point is 00:12:33 What's the reason these people in the games media want an easy mode? Because they want to get through the game quicker to do a view or, you know, because a lot of game journalists. Well, the reason is because they can do an article and get clicks from it. They don't give it shit, like, really. Yeah. I think the issue with this whole argument is the fact you've got,
Starting point is 00:12:55 there's one side where, you know, there's people, you know, with disabilities and just learn energy so people can't enjoy it and more people enjoy it. But the main people preaching this are people who are just like, I want money, I want to do it quick. I think a lot of people that want, like, easy modes, though, are people that have tried Dark Souls and not really liked it. but the thing is like if it was easier then you probably still wouldn't like it because it's the type of game it is yeah really and and without that like hurdle to jump
Starting point is 00:13:24 where's the satisfaction i think it's it's core in especially the soulsborn genre that it has you have to have hurdles to jump yeah naturally otherwise there's no satisfaction it's it's like the same with battle real games like if they were all brain dead AI and you won every time but when you do get that win it makes it all the more satisfying because to be fair
Starting point is 00:13:50 most games that come out you do have difficulty options the only one I can't think of is are the soul's born games I'd argue those games aren't as fine-tuned though what the games that have difficulty options so like every game
Starting point is 00:14:06 no because they base the game around a set difficulty that it's normal pretty much but I mean then a lot of people find that too easy like there are countless games where normal is too hard, no normal is too easy but hard is too hard
Starting point is 00:14:19 because it's balanced around this anyone can play at anything but it all has to be possible. Yeah, like I can think of top of my Wolfenstein normal and that can be quite difficult at times yeah, Mawthensstein too it was really hard
Starting point is 00:14:35 yeah but then you just turn it down too easy but I mean what's the satisfaction in that you can actually I did that yeah but I mean it's it's it's it's
Starting point is 00:14:46 it's not you don't feel like you've overcome a challenge you feel like the game has just because I wasn't really playing that game for the game play I was playing ex yeah exactly so it's not that great of a game
Starting point is 00:14:56 it's not like it's nowhere near dark souls in terms of quality no I wasn't I wasn't even trying to compare them no that's my point though you I don't find a game like completing a campaign
Starting point is 00:15:10 in Halo or COD isn't satisfying that itch, that gameplay itch? No, definitely doesn't. So when I think of difficult in games, that is a game that you go to instantly. I go to Dirt Valley because there's difficulties, but it doesn't matter, because it's all about how good you are.
Starting point is 00:15:28 The mechanics are always the same, right? Yeah, so it's just about how you getting better means you can go to... I've played racing games since I was four. You know, I know how to play racing games to a stupidly high level. I jumped on that game and medium and couldn't do it. I dropped it down to easy because it's just like you can't.
Starting point is 00:15:45 So you work your way up naturally as you get better at the game and that's what games should do. It shouldn't just be difficult now. It should just be gradually as you get better. It becomes harder. I think something that is underutilized in games is an organic difficulty system that Resident Evil 2 uses. A system like when you take damage and stuff like that, it slightly makes things easier. but then the more successful you are the harder it gets so that you're always in this state of it being perfectly balanced for you
Starting point is 00:16:18 and then it's always satisfying yeah but it's like how do they manage that in certain other genres like that game is very because it's a horror game it's like designed for that in mind but you can't do that in a first version shoot or a soul's game I imagine you actually could do it in a soul's game it could work in a soul's game I think I mean you could argue that it's already there because they have leveling systems And you can grind for souls
Starting point is 00:16:41 and make yourself stronger, give yourself a bigger health bar, make yourself feel more damage. If souls work the way the Resident Evil 2 is, I probably would have got into it. Because when I started playing it, yeah, I started getting used to the combat and then obviously as I got better,
Starting point is 00:16:55 the game would have got harder. And if I struggled, it would get easier. It's like that adaptive system would be so good in a lot of games and that's probably the solution to it. Because if someone's just, if they are disabled, they have disabilities,
Starting point is 00:17:09 and they're not as quick with reactions they're still going to enjoy the game because it's going to morph around them that's the way to do it and gamers don't lose anything nobody loses anything because the good gamers are still going to get the hard stuff
Starting point is 00:17:21 like what's the problem there but it's obviously designing those systems into games is where the difficulty is tricky as well because like for a reviewer to review a game they can have a completely different experience to someone else so I think reviewers have made the argument
Starting point is 00:17:38 the debate really toxic. Yeah. You don't... Like, I don't know if people know this, but you don't consume any games journalism because it's bad. Games journalism has been crap. It's like...
Starting point is 00:17:50 What are you talking about? That sort of clickbait headline, like I just said, has been cropping up everywhere because people are arguing about it at the moment. Yeah. And they're not really adding anything. But how... And you jumped from
Starting point is 00:18:05 it being the fault games journalists what being the fault is that the discussion suddenly jumped from accessibility in games to then it being the fault of games media I think ever since like what was it Gamergate like games media no since since GamerGate is gamers in games media have had like a massive split so if if games media says something they you mean you mean like clickbait headlines no one cares about No, people share around on Twitter. They do care because there's arguments about it
Starting point is 00:18:43 every single time there's an article, Alex. Every time there's an article. Gamers don't care. They're like not. They do care, Alex. No, as in, that's not, like, the people who are actually playing, the majority of people who are playing,
Starting point is 00:18:56 they don't give a shit about these articles and whatnot. And like, all, and, like, Sekaro just came out. Every game site fucking loves it. Yeah. But, I mean, every, Every time a from software releases a game, that same argument comes up, should they have an easy mode. I remember it when Dark Souls 3 came out. I remember.
Starting point is 00:19:18 It's been, yeah, it's been talked about for like years. But, I mean, it's up to the developers. I wouldn't be angry if they added an easy mode. If they added an adapter system like Resident Evil, what, nobody can be angry? Because it doesn't change any. Yeah. They'll always find a new thing to be angry about. I mean.
Starting point is 00:19:36 The thing is... I think as fine as it is. It's just why people like the game. Well, yeah. It has its audience, so they might as well stick to that. But like, since when did art have to like, you know, adapt itself to accept? That's my point. Like, the Souls games, if they have different difficulties,
Starting point is 00:19:57 there are basically different versions of the game. So then you don't all have the same satisfaction. It's a weird thing that you can't compare to any other medium. because like you watch a movie the only thing that's going to change is like the resolution but it's like saying to
Starting point is 00:20:14 an out there director like David Lynch you need to stop being so weird because I don't understand your movies yeah I want you to change your art so I like it mm-hmm like the thing is it's fine
Starting point is 00:20:30 if Dark Souls isn't your thing yeah like you're not owed anything for not liking it or it's not like we're short of games to play yeah totally any media in general it's the same for someone who loves dark souls well they love dark souls so they're gonna keep trying at it like i think that's the big difference with this whole difficulty thing like people some people will just give up whereas other people keep going and going and going and even if you don't improve you will just somehow manage to get through the game it's the same with like everything it's like why I would spend hours doing the same thing on a race track and falls are constantly because I get a second off yeah and to you that's really satisfying because it's like nothing gave you that improvement it's personal growth yeah it's me getting better at the game is that yeah yeah and that's where an adaptive system works best in for everyone literally it doesn't yes and no no but like look at um we've all been playing apex legends recently yeah
Starting point is 00:21:36 Look at the way like you and Ruben talk about how good you are at the game and you try to like devalue each other's skill by saying things like Ruben he only plays on Xbox and the players are way worse
Starting point is 00:21:51 and that's that kind of thing so there's always like a new step where it's like well you played here which means you're worse there's always ways to just have that's a bait that's me and Reuben bait that's just petty fighting it's not actually like what we think Anyway, you can't, Battle Royals, I've literally got worse.
Starting point is 00:22:11 I've literally just gone downhill. That's how much enjoyment of the game is gone. It's just crap now. Battle Royals are a completely different topic for another time. No. But, it's always this topic. It's the gaming, we're the games podcast. This is just a gaming intro then, I guess.
Starting point is 00:22:29 We won't talk about games in the second half, unless there's a question about it, but... Basically, I'm a gamer. and if you don't like my games So your point is that you have no point and Jim's right? No, it's just a discussion because that's what you do.
Starting point is 00:22:43 James thinks... I just think there should be ways for other people to be able to enjoy a game. I think there should be different games for different types of people which there are. That's exactly what it is already. So it's fine already.
Starting point is 00:22:57 It's my opinion. There's no, there's no issue. Jim, if you lost an arm tomorrow and couldn't play Dark Souls because you just couldn't. The thing is, there's, you can't expect everyone to do this, but there's a speed runner for Mario 64
Starting point is 00:23:12 that plays with one hand, because he has one hand. And he could be, he could out speed run me and Mary 64 any day of the fucking week. And I mean, for that to exist, it's pretty fucking impressive.
Starting point is 00:23:29 And there is enjoyment to be had for all kinds of people in games, especially now that Microsoft have done that awesome controller. Yeah. Yeah, because surely they could play Dark Souls with that controller. Yeah. They'd have a somewhat similar experience, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:23:42 I think the games industry should just be more open to people with disabilities. I think Xbox being the biggest company. It's an extremely difficult thing. Yeah, but it's just like, you should always... Yeah, what can they do? I mean, it's already like a luxury. It's not like the argument of having a ramp instead of stairs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:01 At the end of the day, it's still like... I mean, it's good. the best thing that could have happened has happened, I think, and that's Microsoft making that controller. And as long as that controller is accessible and not like 200 pounds. That control is completely accessible because you can customise it for you... Yeah. Yeah. And I think as long as that exists
Starting point is 00:24:20 then we're doing pretty good. There's loads of support for it because it's just like it's the first big thing to actually help. Well, it genuinely warmed my heart to see. Like... I swear they did out of nowhere. It was just like boom, this fucking crazy controller. They've been so pro like... consumer. Ever since they were shit. Bent over and penetrated by the
Starting point is 00:24:40 Japanese competitors. You know, I just think, you know, we should be open to everything. That's my view. But you're not also inherently anti-disabled people if you want Dark Souls to stay the same. That's just my point.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Yeah. You're elitist. I don't even, like, I don't play Dark Souls I don't care. I'm indifferent you I'm not now back to the subject to games well you're the host James you'll lead us let's talk about apex legends what do you want to say about apex legends no there's nothing to say about apex legions I it's the best battle royale yeah by far that's all I can say I saw
Starting point is 00:25:28 something recently I'm hugely fond of the genre I saw something recently um this is more game and news. And it was this gamer on on Reddit or Twitter or some shit and was like probably Reddit. All these people calling themselves gamers only putting 100 hours into a game. Real gamers put in 300 plus hours into games. They want to know life it. Yeah. That's sad. That's what I mean about the gatekeeping. Like
Starting point is 00:25:54 you're not you're not a real fan of blank unless you've consumed blank or you you know this. Yeah. It's like gatekeeping is terrible. There's so much of it in gaming. There's so much of it in everything. Gaming specifically. That's just because gamers, they go hand-in-hand with online. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:12 And the discussion is always going to be... If you genuinely have that opinion, though, you're a fucking bitch. For real? You need to play games for hundreds of hours. Yeah, to be a real fan. I've played games for hundreds of hours, and it's the saddest point in my life. I would go back. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:29 I would go back. No, no, what I should I do? No, I go back. the same thing. I'm saying if that's your opinion, like that, like, say we both played Red Dead, but I've played it for 800 hours and you've played it for 50. Yeah. I, um, I have no right to say that you like the game less or that you don't deserve to call yourself a gamer or hang out in forums or on Reddit in our gaming. You're not gaming and you haven't even put 800 hours into Red Dead.
Starting point is 00:27:03 You don't like the Borderlands 3 trailer. Get out of here. The Borderlands 3 trailer is shit. Oh. Basically, if I could go back to 14-year-old me, I'd call him a loser because he was. But then you'd change history. Good.
Starting point is 00:27:21 And that would be fucked. If I didn't play Mono Fair 2, I'd have a better life. You can't say that. Yeah, you can't say that. I can't say that. But at the end of the day, I regret playing Mono Fair 2 as much so I did. I regret playing Destiny as much so I did. the thing is like you can
Starting point is 00:27:36 say you you were working full time maybe even like 45 hours a week at your job but then every time you got home you played the same game over and over you know yeah like what's wrong of that nothing I'm saying that's fine James is implying that if you put play a game for hundreds of hours you're fucking doing no the exact I said I'm a loser me me back then more playing a game for Yeah, it's implying that those who do...
Starting point is 00:28:04 I think I'm a loser because I... No, it's not because I play games, it's because it was me. I don't care if you play games on a house. I regret doing that because I wasted my time. You realise what you're saying by saying that. Shut up. No, I feel away one of the greatest opportunities in my life to play Moran War II. I regret that.
Starting point is 00:28:21 And if I had... What was your greatest opportunity? I left the Under 16th Car Club to play Moran Fair 2. I could have stayed there. Look, pass my test to 18 Been like an advanced driving instructor instantly Because I've been driving for like seven years But I didn't, I threw away to play more than for two
Starting point is 00:28:40 And that's pathetic I mean, you kind of are a pro game now So I'm not Pro level cod player, so swings and roundups I only play games in the after work On the weekends, don't really play games That's because we take up all your time

Starting point is 00:29:58 a funny jar related story we get lots of these and I like them every time Alex loves them I've been watching JAR since the old channel and been really enjoying the recent episodes One of my favourite JAR moments slash memes is Alex talking about his banana shenanigans Oh God, yeah Jim missed that
Starting point is 00:30:15 The best episode and Jim missed it I watched the episode laughed a few times and didn't think anything of it until later The thing is I have Tourette's syndrome I think you can guess where this is going I was diagnosed at four years old and I've been
Starting point is 00:30:30 and have both motor ticks and vocal ticks swearing profanity etc and hours after watching the episode I suddenly shouted that I masturbated with a banana despite being a female and never doing anything weird with a banana in my life my parents
Starting point is 00:30:47 who were in a room at the time found it absolutely hilarious I guess they meant in the room at the time found it absolutely hilarious and so did I my friends find it funny too it's a great icebreaker and probably one of the oddest ticks I've ever had I just wanted to let Alex know that his story had a massive impact on me literally and it's brought my and it's brought one of my funniest Tourette's stories ever
Starting point is 00:31:09 so thanks Alex game on bro nice nice it's nice to know that the Gile Media podcast brings such joy to people's lives you know we we You're just going to leave it at that? I blanked. Alpha Jarling says,
Starting point is 00:31:31 I was looking through old jar videos and noticed the famous Portal Gun Bum Fun video was renamed to Portal Gun Buy Me Fun. And the thumbnail was no longer sexy and epic. My question is, why would you change such an iconic title? And when did you do this? And when did you do this?
Starting point is 00:31:49 I only noticed it recently. When did you do this? It got flanked, didn't it? No, so what happened was the network I'm with for JARMedia they
Starting point is 00:32:04 did what's called a thumbnail audit so they went through and were like because YouTube was tweaking the system or something in a few days from whenever this was so they did this to all their channels and were like this video, this video and this video
Starting point is 00:32:22 have all been flagged is potentially like they're going to get smacked if you don't change them was hot girl booty spider-man one of them no no it wasn't yeah see i least you have no idea what these episodes are I don't know what they are that was way back when spider-man was first in the
Starting point is 00:32:39 MCU first announced to be in the mcc yeah from the trailer yeah a long time ago now but yeah I changed it because I didn't want anything bad to happen yeah because you know we know with YouTube executive decision on behalf of JAR
Starting point is 00:32:57 to save our bums Yeah there are a couple that I changed And there are plenty of Jail media videos have been flagged And like the The great episode with the naked man Running away from a hippo That's one I will not change
Starting point is 00:33:14 Yeah definitely not I have no attachment to Hot Girl No sorry Portal gun bum fun That was a good episode though No, Zinn, I liked the episode But I had no attachment to the thumbnail Or the name was good
Starting point is 00:33:27 The name was good But whatever Portal gun ban Bum fun Wait Were you there for that Look This was part of the charm
Starting point is 00:33:39 When I was on Huck You and I wasn't there So The original question was If you had a portal gun Would you fuck yourself in the ass Wait did James I guess he wasn't there for that I was never there
Starting point is 00:33:51 Oh Christ This is a difficult question. No. No, but do you remember we talked about the logistics and how you could make it work? No, it's real. No, think, no, because... Because you're... As you thrust forwards, your butt would also go forwards. So it's out of reach.
Starting point is 00:34:11 You guys are so dumb. So, no, I developed a system to make it work. And you put, you attach the portal gun to like something you can move. you put your dick through the other one and then you move the thing up your ass like it no like imagine a mug with just a portal
Starting point is 00:34:31 with your dick coming out of it and then you just use it like a dildo what you do you can eat your own ass though you could eat your own ass you know that's why that Jordan Peel movie Us wasn't scary to me why because the movies about doppelgangers
Starting point is 00:34:49 showing up and trying to kill you Yeah. But as soon as my doppelganger showed up, I'd just pounce on him and we'd just fuck. If I ain't having an ego, I don't know what is. What happened if it was my doppelganger? Because surely they'd have the same car. Yeah, because the whole thing was that like the doppelgangers were going for their own person and stuff like that. Yeah, so my doppelganger would go for me, but we'd have the same car.
Starting point is 00:35:13 So you'd just be chasing each other, too. I don't know if they have the same. I don't know if they have cars in that universe for them, but... Well, I'll just run him over with my car. James' answers to everything. Yeah. How can I really awkwardly bring this back to being about cars? Or specifically my car.
Starting point is 00:35:31 There's no link. Let's just trying wedge cars. You make it sound like I'm sad. As if I'm obsessed. That's not, no. Yes. No, it's just you're passionate about it. No, but it's just like, everyone thinks I'm just a car boy.
Starting point is 00:35:44 I'm not a car boy. You are a car boy. Oh my car boy? How the fuck are you not a car? Just because I've got like seven car meets planned in this year. It doesn't mean I'm a cowboy. You take every, literally, every opportunity you can to talk about... No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I don't.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Anyway. No, you got me, you got me. Wait, hold on. There's no one of you smell that. What is it? I think it's an argie release. What a fart. Yeah, it fucking reeks. That's probably why I came here.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Because once again, Argy literally stinks a shit all the time. He's so lovely. He's scared of you guys as well. Do you know who's a better dog? Guy, guys, is. Eh. Do you know who's a better dog, Billy? Billy's the best ant jar animal.
Starting point is 00:36:20 Eh. Look at him. When I went to get Billy from the cattery, she wasn't the best jar animal. No, that's bullshit. Not fair. Take... She was actually screaming. Oh!
Starting point is 00:36:35 Put argue in a tiny box and fucking throw him in your car. No, dogs actually like being in, like, confined to spaces. Yeah, they do. Guys does not. Well, he's a freak. He's a freak. His ass stinks of shit. Next question.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Goofbrush Says, is James as horny as they say? I'll let you answer that, James. No. Well, it depends how horny do they say he is. Yeah. Is it all related to my bonus shorts from like the first episode?
Starting point is 00:37:06 Oh yeah. I still have those shorts. So the answer's yes. Well, there's a reason we call him the Melf Hunter. Let's just leave it at that. No, I'm not. Where did this come from? Soggy Doggy says.
Starting point is 00:37:16 No, no, shut up. You've got to finish this. I've never heard anything. to do with me being horny? No, I said you're a milf hunter. Yeah. You've always been...
Starting point is 00:37:26 James Milf Hunter. I've been Milf Hunter house but that doesn't... It's got nothing to do of the question. Why are you called the Milf Hunter? Is it because of that porn
Starting point is 00:37:34 channel that's like the Milf Hunter who goes around like... That's what the name he gave himself. That's the joke he made when we were 15 because he would darn, we only just discovered
Starting point is 00:37:43 pornography is Milves! Because all like fresh teenage boys just love. love Mills for some reason. So I just... I know the reason, but...
Starting point is 00:37:53 I became a milfunter. Fuck me. There's all the evidence you need. This is in that subject. Sogy Doggy says, which one of the Red Dead Red Dead redemption characters would win in a Mario Kart race? Dutch.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Uh... Jack Marston. You'd be speedy. Why? Because he's small. I'm talking about... kid Maston, tiny little guy. Okay. So it'd be like baby Mary?
Starting point is 00:38:25 Like baby Mario, yeah. Well, who's the Yoshi of the game? Your horse, surely. That would be a great name for a horse in Red Dead. Yoshi. Yeah, Yoshi. That's so good. Why are you sitting like that?
Starting point is 00:38:42 Because it's way more comfortable to be facing you guys, as opposed to my body facing towards the camera. I'm facing you guys. I'm facing you. Yo mama. Jim doesn't like me anymore. Because Manta Squad says How would you describe each other's poo
Starting point is 00:39:00 with the title of a movie or a game? Example, Dirty Harry or Max Payne. Wait, so I have to describe each other, you guys. Just describe either your poo or one of our poos.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Okay, I can describe my own poo. You're gonna have to give me a while to think of a movie type of. Uh, mine would be Red Dead Red Dead Redemption. Um... Mine would be, Get Out. Jameses would be the Shawshank Redemption. No, I'm trying to think. Like, what's the...
Starting point is 00:39:42 The Dark Night. What's that a good movie to describe poo that takes forever to come out? tremors alien and like they're the smallest poos in the world though Forrest Gump hard to come out
Starting point is 00:40:03 really small than they do no country for old men the Meg I'm just saying movie titles at this point Rampage Rampage is a good one I'm just reading them So if you've got Di Rio it's fast and
Starting point is 00:40:20 furious. Annihilation. Annihilation. Stranger things? That's a good one for me. That's like if you've got like spaghetti in your, in your shit. Mmm. Bit corn. Good question. Very good. What about good time? That's a shit that you shit and you don't have to wipe and it's all clean. Oh boy.
Starting point is 00:40:48 Okay, Collagen Clio says if you saw or knew someone that has the same personality and looks as you, would you interact or befriend them? No. And what kind of relationship would you have with this person? Friendly relationship, rivals? Is this another doppelganger question? Yeah. Well, it's probably on everyone's minds because of it does. What?
Starting point is 00:41:11 I would probably have sex with them. Wait, if I... what do you think we really we literally started as enemies literally yeah but I wouldn't say we're we don't look similar we we the only thing we have in common is wow wow which Jim invented Jim's invented everything your channel invented by Jim Jarkast invented by Jim Jim's like the I'm the brains of the organization My dog is hungry Oh
Starting point is 00:41:54 James gone You gotta have a reference from the dark night I say why so serious I'm not wearing hockey pads Remember the debate on if it was hockey pads or pants It's confirmed that it's pads Yeah Quite weird the voice he does in his movies
Starting point is 00:42:15 Quite shit I don't Make good, make better has a comment for us Jarre helped me make a movie I'm studying film at college and one of my assignments for the first semester was to write
Starting point is 00:42:30 a short script and present it to the class at the end of the semester the class would vote on which scripts to make into actual films so there I was trying to come up with a story to write about and then I remember Jamie mentioning something about what he'd do if he had a video game
Starting point is 00:42:46 character customise from real life. I don't remember which episode. I think it was a response to a fan question. Within a day, I farted out a script and about two guys breaking into a lab to mess about with a medicine that can change the appearance of their clothes. I presented it,
Starting point is 00:43:02 and at the start of the second semester, I found out that my script was one of eight to be picked, to be made, out of a class of 40. Cut to four months later, the film is now finished and has been screened. Making the film was a great experience,
Starting point is 00:43:15 and I don't know if I'd have I've made one if I wrote about something else. So thanks to Jamie and slash all, the jar fan who suggested the real-life character customization question. I genuinely don't remember who came up with it. Game on, boys. Hold it, hold it, hold up. So, this guy steals my idea. Then...
Starting point is 00:43:37 I think he owes us some cash. I'm getting there. He steals my idea. Then rubs it in my face that he stole my idea. and then hasn't sent me a check in the mail Oh no This is hardcore back stabbery Fuck
Starting point is 00:43:59 That's pretty sweet though Should we come up with another script right now? No, please Nothing's going to be the Deadpool sequel idea But whatever Nah, I just go back to the Deadpool sequel We peaked way too early Okay
Starting point is 00:44:14 Bibo Dibby-dibbibbosa says what's the silliest reason you've gotten to a fight with someone? Probably with Jim. Probably for slamming James' doors on his car. Yeah. That wasn't a fight. I was just being... I think most of them revolve around James. James and Rubin.
Starting point is 00:44:32 How? Okay, explain. Because you two argue over the dumbest shit. Literally anything. Yeah, it doesn't matter what it is. A dog? Yeah, dogs. That wasn't an...
Starting point is 00:44:43 I wasn't arguing. that was just a diet that's the best bit a brownie no the inanimate objects yeah just of three you mentioned three two of them I wasn't arguing I was trolling
Starting point is 00:45:01 no one of them was like a genuine passive aggressive like jab which one the diet one I was laughing and I was saying it What did James say to Reuben? Reuben said, like, I think I'm going to have another pizza, and James was like, Ruben, your diet is fucking shit.
Starting point is 00:45:23 And then Reuben killed him in Rainbow 6. No, but it wasn't that. I said it while laughing, and then it was just silence, and then Reuben was just like, snap. And then you said, like, are you a fucking child? That's James is gay too. Yeah. It was funny, though.
Starting point is 00:45:42 And then we literally didn't talk For the rest of the day We just sat in the corner And didn't say a word to each other No, because I went to pee And then came back And then I said like You guys better make up
Starting point is 00:45:56 Because y'all are being bitches That's that what you actually said I mean not Not verbatim But No but me We've been always cool about it It's just like we do that
Starting point is 00:46:07 Because that's our thing Well James sits there With like childish glee Loving every second of it, knowing Ruben gets so up, like, worked up about it. It's like, we were playing Apex two days ago. And there was rumours posting this picture of a dog, so I was just saying, dumb shit about a dog. And it's just laughing every time I said anything.
Starting point is 00:46:28 Ah, so good. Such a troll. The original troll face himself. Have you not seen that picture of me? What? That old picture of me? Oh, of course, yeah. With the troll face?
Starting point is 00:46:41 Yeah. I found that. It's on Facebook. Yeah. What is with Argy? He's being a bro right now. Augie! Comey! The dibster says a Lego question for Alex.
Starting point is 00:46:56 Do you think M&R Productions looks like Walter Jr. a little bit? Yeah, I can see that. Sebastian Orte has a question that James will like. He just smacked his head on the mic. I'm sorry! Which Madagascar characters are the World War II, leaders. Oh, well...
Starting point is 00:47:14 Oh, God. We don't actually have to answer that. Okay, Madagascar, who? The Madagascar, too? No, Wobble, two. Madagascar characters. So, um, we got, um, Winston Churchill is, uh, Gloria.
Starting point is 00:47:31 Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty good. Uh, was it Teddy Roosevelt? No. Who is gonna show our ignorance now? I don't know. I don't know. America got involved in history but America
Starting point is 00:47:44 so late like fuck you've got um mazzolini is Melbourne that's the giraffe no because Italy was a dibby
Starting point is 00:47:58 so morted or two Franklin Roosevelt Franklin not Teddy Franklin Delano Roosevelt America would be Alex Alex the lion yep
Starting point is 00:48:11 so who we've got we've got more we got what about Germany Hitler skipper no who no right surely King Julian he's like a kind of dictatory sort of figure it wasn't communism though well King Julian's Russia he's Stalin Skipper. Surely Skipper should have been America. No. Yeah. No, because America is one of the leading forces. Yeah. So
Starting point is 00:48:50 And everything that happens in Madagascar is thanks to the moment. Melmonds is France. Melman's France. So we've just got... And Marty is England. No, because we said glorious Winston Churchill. Oh yeah of course. So who have we got left?
Starting point is 00:49:07 No, because the giraffe. What's his name? Melman. Melman? He's France. Melman can be Poland. No, Melman is France.
Starting point is 00:49:17 I'm telling you. I'm telling you. Okay, so who's Marty? Marty is... Yo mama. Japan? He's so good at spitting water. He's so good at spitting water.
Starting point is 00:49:29 No, but I thought the clash was him and Alex. They were the little... Yeah, in the first one, I guess. So that would make sense for Japan. No, but then if Alex isn't America, then what is Alex? Skipper. The penguins. America has to be the fucking penguins.
Starting point is 00:49:45 Wait, so... America's the penguins. So what's Alex? Germany. Alex the Lion is a Nazi. Here first, folks. Oh my God. Merink says...
Starting point is 00:50:01 Maybe who's China? Oh my God. China will... Nobody gives a shit about China and World War II. You should? Don't sleep on China. Yeah. I'll be sleeping on China.
Starting point is 00:50:13 I had a good snows. Anyway, I can go back to my question now from Merink. This cast is just like... What do you think... What do you guys think of modern British rock bands? I'm a big fan of 9-inch Nails. I think they're the best group. Yeah, famous British rock band 9-inch Nails.
Starting point is 00:50:36 Do we listen to rock? I really enjoy bands like Muse, my favourite band, the Struts. Nothing but Thieves, Bastille, etc. That was the end of the question. I don't listen to Wock. I... Yeah, no. Not really my thing.
Starting point is 00:50:53 Modern rock. Yeah. It's cold. I remember liking Muse in, like, secondary school. Yeah, I like Muse back in the day. I haven't really listened to them in a long time, though. Back in the day? Yeah, back in the day.
Starting point is 00:51:07 That's when I wouldn't listen to, like, albums, though. I just listened to a single. Yeah. Loads of singles. A couple songs. Do you think it's right? To play your music, all of it is shuffle. Yes.
Starting point is 00:51:20 If that's how you want to do it, yeah. I do that sometimes. I wouldn't say there's any wrong way to listen to music. Epic. I thought you'd be like... That's dumb. I personally don't like doing that. I like putting on an album.
Starting point is 00:51:32 I like doing that. I prefer putting on an artist, personally, because then you know what kind of you're getting into, that type of artist, that type of style. But recently, I've just been shuffle on every single song you have, It's like, look. So you're an idiot then? So you're an actual moron then?
Starting point is 00:51:45 The thing I do is I end up skipping all of the ones I don't want to listen to. Yeah, exactly. That's why I like putting on an album. Then you, that's when you find diamonds in the rough. But that's when I can't decide on an album or an artist. You just go, well, that one. I can't do that. Ghost skull says, this is a Lego question for Alex.
Starting point is 00:52:05 He's picking these because it's hit. What are your opinions on the new Lego Star Wars 20th anniversary sets that I went to look for in Sainsbury? earlier, but they weren't there. You didn't? He did? Yes, he did, and then I hit a Coca-Cola pepper sachet
Starting point is 00:52:19 underneath a Overwatch Lego set. Personally, I think they're lackluster, but I'm hoping they'll release more later this year, hoping for a new UCS set. If you go to the Big Saints who is in Chippenum, go to Lego, I'll go to the second box of the
Starting point is 00:52:35 Overwatch and see a packet of song. No, but there's multiple Overwatch sets. It's the one with... Tracer and Stupido Maker. Is Tracer? I thought it was Widowmakers is definitely in it Yes, it's that one
Starting point is 00:52:44 I didn't see you do it So I don't know which set it was It's the second box in Little box Second box in If you pick up There'll be a salt There'll be a pepper
Starting point is 00:52:51 From McDonald's with it I think I've talked about a bit before But it fucks me up The Overwatch sets Overwatch sets Overse shit Mm-hmm So fucked up to it
Starting point is 00:52:59 Horse shit Overwatch equals porn And nothing else So just seeing this Like Lego porn effectively On shelves For kids to buy And look out
Starting point is 00:53:07 On the kids shelf Leggo isn't very sexualized So I don't think That's a big problem. No, but Overwatch is. But then the kids are going to go online to try and find art of their favorite Lego Overwatch Tracer.
Starting point is 00:53:20 And it'll be like a triple gang bang with Tracer as the first image result. And they'd be like, oh, Tracer's gay, actually. You think the porn cares about that? But the point is, I actually quite like the 20th Lego anniversary sets. I'm even considering buying the fucking Podracer from episode one, because of the nostalgia there.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Because, of course, it's 20th anniversary of Lego Star Wars first kind of fan, my Lego fandom started with those original 1999 Star Wars sets, so including that PodRacer and yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:53 Was it the yellow pod racer, isn't it? Yeah, Anacons one. That's much harder as well. Because it was in the Podwacer game. It's actually a pretty decent set from the looks of things. I haven't bought any of them yet, so I'm waiting for a points weekend or something.
Starting point is 00:54:05 We'll see. Shut the fuck up. Hey, Shakiro. I don't even own that game I'm waiting for points weekend Was that you farting or was that, Alex? Bit it both I'm waiting for points weekend
Starting point is 00:54:19 Oh Look at my rotary Did you just say rotary? Did you just say rotary Alex? Did you just say rotary? Yes, he did Yes
Starting point is 00:54:31 My laugh just then reminded me of a trailer that I saw, the Joker trailer Can we quickly talk about how shit this movie's going to be? Really? That's the opposite opinion than most people I have. Are you serious? Yeah. I think it's going to be in this movie.
Starting point is 00:54:49 I think it is going to be fucking trash. What are your reasons for that? Like two times in the trailer it's like, look, he's a clown, get him. They just fucking attack this dude. Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, that's how crime works. Like, like, my, my version of the Joker. Yeah, sure. I tried being normal once
Starting point is 00:55:12 I thought some of it was like and some of it was like great actor yeah very good actor curious to see his interpretation but it's like why are you making these fucking movies
Starting point is 00:55:28 where the main character of the movie is an integral part of another character's story yeah like people say that oh the Joker's always the most interesting part of a Batman movie It's like it's still a Batman movie though
Starting point is 00:55:43 Yeah Isn't his whole motivation Completely revolved around Batman? His existence is Batman Like he doesn't exist without Batman Yeah But it's supposedly like a A sort of else world story
Starting point is 00:56:00 That isn't in the DC universe It's like a one-off thing that isn't connected But why is it called the Joker then Make your own fucking character Because brand recognition People go see Joker They love Joker Hot Topic can put his face on shirts
Starting point is 00:56:15 Just just fucking make a movie called clown Hey it's really clown I mean I watched the trailer and was like Yeah okay whatever And then forgot about it When Reuben told me who the director was Then I was like okay this finner be trash Saw the hangover director
Starting point is 00:56:31 Is that right? Yeah Whatever, we'll see It looks like they're I don't know To me it kind of looks like DC is they just don't know
Starting point is 00:56:40 what the fuck they're doing so they're like no how confusing is it to general audiences that suicide squad came out the other year
Starting point is 00:56:47 and now they've got a Joker movie coming out with a different actor not based in the same universe but also there's also
Starting point is 00:56:55 a suicide squad sequel without the Joker in it so it's almost like it's kind of like a soft reboot in and of itself yeah
Starting point is 00:57:02 like is Jared Letto still going to be the Joker in that universe who's going I mean I'm just going to Who knows and who cares? Who's directing that movie now? Who?
Starting point is 00:57:11 What movie? James Gunn's not doing it, is he? No, he is, I think. I think he's still attached to it. No, but he's doing Garland and he's going to do both. D.C. or wait. I got fucking nothing else going on. But he's the best director they've ever had.
Starting point is 00:57:25 You're saying Zach Snyder ain't your mama? And go out and lose your virginity if you think Batman in my movie's rubbish. His fucking words, not my movie. Did he actually say that? Yeah, he said, like, these comic book fans need to go and fuck some pussy
Starting point is 00:57:43 if they think my Batman's lame. Guess what? This is reality. Batman kills people, okay? Batman's a comic book character. Yeah. He's a farcical cartoon. He's a fucking dude that dresses up as a bat.
Starting point is 00:57:57 And his, like, his defining character is that he won't kill at all costs. It's the only thing that, like, distinguishes him from the crime that he's so passionately fights against this is like one of his biggest motivations no go get laid you fucking homo fuck you
Starting point is 00:58:17 this shows the fucking perspective he brought it on yeah it's just like yeah he looks cool so he must kill yeah I've been like fucking explode a couple guys in an elevator which he recond himself in the next movie anyway Batman doesn't kill anyone in Justice League Did he wreck on that, or did the other dude? Joss Whedon. Well, Zach Zahner had no creative input in justice,
Starting point is 00:58:44 and what he did was so, like... I think saying that, though, is so... lame of him. Hang on, we'll come back and discuss this more after these messages. Please continue. Let's shit more on Zaki Spider. Zach Spider. No, like, Spiders Justice Lee.
Starting point is 00:59:05 It's genuinely just, like, cruel. These people that love Batman. Yeah. And he's had the blessing to make a fucking Batman movie. Yep. And then... He's read one Batman comic. Instead of just...
Starting point is 00:59:17 Instead of him being polite and saying, this was just how I wanted the character to be. This was my vision of him. Like, if you don't like it, then okay. But, but no, you're a fucking pussy if you don't like it. You fucking... These fucking comic book nerds, who I made the movie for... Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:32 in reverence to the most famous Batman comic of all time was this biggest inspiration It's like surface level understanding of this character is handed It shows how like DC and their whole thing was like Completely clueless Same guy who it also explains why Superman is so unsupermanie in his movies Because he's a he's a cool Superman He's not for
Starting point is 01:00:02 fucking yeah he's chad superman like he's a dick just you know slaughters thousands of people only cares about pus yeah the only thing he cares about is is crunching pus he barely

Starting point is 01:05:00 Yeah. Fuck me. No, but we call it the Chucky Mobile because there's someone in our town who has that car, but they've like customized it with these chucky, like the movie, the doll, the murderous doll themed decals all over the car. And it's like the, there's an abomination of a vehicle. Look at it. What beast. Have you seen this shit?
Starting point is 01:05:24 I want that car. Look, look, look at it. Look at it. It looks gourmet. Like imagine pulling up to work in... Yeah, that's bad. Uh huh. No, it gets worse.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Like, imagine pulling up to a new job in that. The people would know you're a straight baller. You know, I've seen one, I went to a carmint and someone had modified one. It was a cabriolet. It was a fucking pickup. They turned it into a pickup. It had, you know, like, hot wad paint styles of flames. It had that and it's just like, what the fuck? what the fuck?
Starting point is 01:06:00 And in this car park there was like all the Japanese modded cars and that showed up and it's just like what the voice hilarious
Starting point is 01:06:06 George Georgie is not okay says you mingas have already said your favorite chocolates twirl is objectively the best by far it's not
Starting point is 01:06:15 milker is don't know my that's bullshit milkers milkers are fantastic galaxy is better than fucking milker no it's not
Starting point is 01:06:25 good you you're obsessed no no no you were obsessed With milk or dime. Because I had dime in it. Which is nice. Have you tried Cabri Dime?
Starting point is 01:06:33 It's terrible. No. Because I don't care about Dime anymore because I would have been like young, dumb and full of cum at the time, so I don't care. Milka is top. Oh my God. Milka is...
Starting point is 01:06:46 Green and blacks. If the... If the names were switched and Cabri was like the European shit tier chocolate like Milker is, and we had... And we had, and Cabri was called Milka here, James would still, he would still... No, if it was switch around, just because it's European. No, that is exactly why.
Starting point is 01:07:07 You stop. Famoyism to the fucking extreme. No, no, no, no, no. Do you remember the whole pocky thing? Yeah. I had, okay, the pocky, I was 14. I've always liked Milka because I like the chocolate and it's very milky. I've liked that since I was a kid.
Starting point is 01:07:20 And like, before... Well, that gives some people diarrhea, James. So dairy milk isn't milky enough for you. No, because it gets sick. When I was young, before I even knew what milk is, I got some milker chocolate for Christmas and I was like, this is the best thing in the world. And the boys love milker. Milka is shit. The fuck.
Starting point is 01:07:39 Oh, for... Milk is not shit. Milk is beautiful. It's shit. It's not shit. But I would take it if we didn't have dairy milk. Ther milk is overweighted. Wrong.
Starting point is 01:07:49 No, it is. So wrong. You take a bite of dairy milk and then you feel sick. If I'm going to eat a bar of chocolate, I'm going to eat the whole bar. You can't do that of Capri. milker though wrong do you know how much dairy milk I've eaten in my life
Starting point is 01:08:01 like entire fucking big chungus bars like fat dude bars down my mouth in one sitting I've done the same and milk is ten times better because every bite I'm like this is lovely with milker it's like
Starting point is 01:08:18 shit all it tastes of is milk it's like milk that's solidified it's great Jim, next time you have one of those, aim the mic, and fart into it the mic. That's disgusting. That's my opinion on Milker. It would sound really funny.
Starting point is 01:08:36 I don't know if I want to do that. No, but please do. Please do. He's literally farted non-stop today. Non-stop. But the question... I have colitis. Despite how shit Milker is, and everyone agrees.
Starting point is 01:08:52 Unless you're in Europe, where I'm sorry, that's all you've fucking got. This happened in bloody Europe. Mm-hmm. There is. Okay. I've been to Europe. So have I. Yeah, so have I.
Starting point is 01:09:06 We all have. We're in Europe right now. Not when we leave the EU. Anyway, the actual question was, so I wondered, what are all your favourite sweets? Not counting chocolate. Oh, fruit gums.
Starting point is 01:09:21 Fruit gums are shit. Damn, fruit gums are all... Nah. Shut the fuck out. Shut the fuck up, Alice. Three gums of baby tear and bullshit and not baby tear
Starting point is 01:09:29 you gotta have big man teeth to fucking chew those motherfuckers they are so good I don't want to be chewing on something that actually makes me tired
Starting point is 01:09:37 no it's good exercise for your chore you don't get cheekbones like these bye wrong Alex wait are you gonna say
Starting point is 01:09:46 like fruit pastels or some fucking no I was gonna say um I like the M&S like worms you fucking little let me list like a top three
Starting point is 01:09:58 gummy worms like the M&S ones no like the all natural like ones no the MNS ones are better than them all natural but let me have my opinion Colin the caterpillar that's what it's cool no I'm not crazy about those
Starting point is 01:10:11 I like gummy worms shit I'm I fucking love Percy pigs yeah they're shit I hate them you guys are wrong no Percy pigs are overrated they are not like good
Starting point is 01:10:24 yeah thank you that's horse shit, you bite their ears off and then you feast on the, like the dessert of the dessert. And then number three, fruit gums. Do you think Americans have Percy pigs? No. No. That's a shame.
Starting point is 01:10:40 Percy pigs are mind-blowingly fucking licky, licky, yummy. Do you know what's one thing? Millions. You like millions? Shut the fuck up. They don't sell them anywhere. They don't sell them anywhere. I check every shop I go into five millions.
Starting point is 01:10:56 They don't sell me. There's like a... My favourite sweet is juicy drop pop. Do you remember those bars? Wham bars? There's 20-key. That was... Matt, I loved them.
Starting point is 01:11:06 Yeah. God damn it. No, nobody loved them more than Alex, though. I fucking loved Wamboyne. We had a fucking drawer in Alex's room. Oh, yeah. The band draw. And it also had, fucking...
Starting point is 01:11:19 Crusher in there, had Wham, and it had, like, a Swiss roll, and it had pop gone in it. And, like, ma'am and just... Any spare money we'd had, we had, we'd go to the house. But it wasn't like nice ones. It was like St.S.P.E.S.P.E.S.R. It was just cheap shit. Like, get the most stuff we can't. Because it was all in preparation for your birthday. And there's this one wambah that fucking melted in it in summer.
Starting point is 01:11:42 Because I opened it and was like, I'll just have a bite. Had a bite, but then left it open. And you could never get it out. I remember this. Actually melted onto the, onto the base of the wood drawer. Yeah. And you couldn't get it off. We ended up smashing that thing to pieces.
Starting point is 01:11:57 The one part was just the one bit that was the smithing. Yeah. That shit, like it's probably the only thing holding me together at this point. Like all the wambars like that are inside me. Like when I die... They're still digesting. My body will decay and they'll be like this perfect like, wambar exoskeleton.
Starting point is 01:12:16 See, I've never liked those type of sweets. Those wambar kind of really... But you like millions. I love millions. Because I haven't had them in like six years. So you have Mistak... What about Freddos? No, they're chocolate.
Starting point is 01:12:27 Yeah, the chocolate. Yeah, don't count. They're also dairy milk chocolate. What do you think of, like, um, American sweets? Shit. Like, nerds. Yeah, they're shit. Yeah, we have good...
Starting point is 01:12:39 We have the best confectionery in the world. Yeah. It's the one thing I get at. Mm-hmm. Insane, sugary, addictive, terrible for you, confectionery. Do you not what I'm gonna say? You know, you get the bags of fruit gums.
Starting point is 01:12:53 You get the bags of fruit gums and they're a bit hard. Horrible. So if you've got the tubes of fruit gums, they are soft as fuck. They are beautiful. That wasn't one of the good ones, man. I didn't know if it was going to take longer or look. Basically, don't buy a bag of fruit gums, buy the three tubes of one pound, buying. See, I don't know if someone who'd never had English confectionery and then had fucking
Starting point is 01:13:23 fruit gums would be all that impressed. No, no, you've got a scent of fruit gums. I just want to say, I hate, I hate fruit pastels. Jim, you still love fruit pastels. That's all shit. That's all shit. You hate fruit pastels, no, they're lovely.
Starting point is 01:13:37 I've always hated fruit pastels. Wrong. Shit texture. You still, no, the texture's nice. No, the sugar on them is, is, ah. Shit. Shit to your sweet.
Starting point is 01:13:50 Don't give a shit. I only have negative memories of millions. millions. It's too much. It's too fucking much millions. Yeah, millions. There's just too many of them. No, no, no, no. No, you just pull them in and you see what happens? Pull whole tube. That's so fucked.
Starting point is 01:14:06 Did you ever have those, um, those like straws that have been closed either side and you rip the end of the straw off and then... They suck. They suck. They're fucking pointless. They always get wet on the inside, then they just, they just never comes out. What about, uh, those UFO sweets? Oh, they were terrible. Yeah. Like, I...
Starting point is 01:14:26 I liked the UFOs. I liked them, but, like... But they're horrible. When I think about them, they're... It's like cardboard with Sherbert in the middle. Yeah, that's what makes them so great. I don't have any of this shit in so long. It hurts, Sherbert.
Starting point is 01:14:40 Yeah. It always scrapes through with your mouth, then you're just, like, coughing up blood for six months. There's no, when you snort it. It's what kids in our school you should do, remember? Mm-hmm. They should buy those Sherbert things and just, like, try to act as if it's cocaine.
Starting point is 01:14:52 It's just like James disapproved of that one Didn't you snort some once That was cocoa powder Coco powder Fuck me I hope people from around the world
Starting point is 01:15:08 Send us their confectionery For that I bet they've got like some weird thing That like their favourite Yeah Ravio underscore says I don't have a question to ask But I just thought I'd say
Starting point is 01:15:22 that Jolo Truglio is an in-joke with me and my friends so when I saw the other week's episode's title I basically scream laughed Truglio on gamers Swing A-F As fuck Okay let's see if we have any
Starting point is 01:15:41 A couple more Jamie Jamie Hmm Alex Jim won't pick up my call Jean-Luc Goddard 76 says What are your thoughts on letterboxed as a whole A lot of people hate it
Starting point is 01:15:58 But I think it's a genuinely helpful and well-designed site Why would people hate it What's the hate about it I guess it has a rep for Like we brought up at the beginning of the show Being, I don't know Gap Keepery and very I'm a film guy
Starting point is 01:16:13 Thing But I mean I don't get any of that there Yeah, I don't. I just look at the numbers. Yeah. I use it... I use it for my own, like, enjoyment in terms of, like, I like tracking it and being
Starting point is 01:16:29 obsessive OCD. It's like achievements on Xbox for me. Do you know what? Like, every time I watch a film, it's like, it's going on a letterbox, so I know... You guys constantly talk about a letterbox and your views on that. It's just me from when I was 16, an anime. That's what I did. How?
Starting point is 01:16:46 My anime list. It's where you list all your anime. and you review them. It's the same thing. It's not the same thing. It is. How is it any difference? It's just, it's film.
Starting point is 01:16:57 It's just documenting, like, things you watched. I did that of anime. And guess what? I wish I never did. There you go again with the same thing. No, I don't. My anime list is a proper... Wow!
Starting point is 01:17:14 Yeah, I don't get the hubbub. I think the app's pretty good. issue it has is how long it takes to log a film. Takes too long for some reason. Does it? Maybe that's just my one, I don't know. Maybe. I haven't noticed that.
Starting point is 01:17:29 Hmm, let's do a couple more. Buh. Sue Sox says, if you guys were NPCs in an RPG video game, what idle dialogue lines would you have? What would you say if a player attacked you? Also, if you
Starting point is 01:17:44 could interact with each other one time in game, what would the exchange sound Okay, I know if someone, I know what my line would be, if someone attacks me. What? You know what it is. I said it last week. Well, the apex line? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:02 What's that reminding the people? I can't actually remember it. Pain. Death. Nothing faces me. It's quite a good one. Copyright, uh, lawsuit, in coming. Not if it's based in the apex world.
Starting point is 01:18:15 Mm. Uh, um, idle dialogue line. and one for when you're attacked. So Idle would just be something like, Game on. Then we'd just be... Alex would be like a gremlin at the back of the house and like an MMO RPG.
Starting point is 01:18:33 When I was attacked, I'd go, Mama! Wait, I'd be like an NPC that's sort of hidden away because they didn't like finish him. I'd just be... The only thing I could say is, Hello, dear. Get attacked.
Starting point is 01:18:45 Everyone from Sky. If someone bumped into me, I'd go, Bubani, trouble new nani. So what's the other dialogue line do we need to do? It was idle and if you're attacked and then... If one of us interacted with the other
Starting point is 01:19:01 MPC. So if I interacted with Jim No, it would start off with me going Hello there. Sounds like a great game. I don't know what my movie. Have you seen my bird? you actually see my bird though hello dear
Starting point is 01:19:23 oh we can talk about this briefly James James's huge erect knob any thoughts on the new arrested development episodes you sing any Jim yeah terrible yeah pretty bad I can't stand them they're like it forgot to be funny
Starting point is 01:19:40 seasons ago that show just season one two and three just stop Don't need to watch anything past there It literally ends Yeah It has an ending Yeah it has an ending
Starting point is 01:19:52 But they just had to Bring it back It's just so like Everyone looks old And like they don't want to be there It's green screen all the time And it's really awkward The green screen is so bizarre
Starting point is 01:20:05 Exposition is off the charts But also There's loads of like Parts where they dubbed it And it just looks Awful Yeah I mean the show has kind of
Starting point is 01:20:15 Always had that issue but it's even worse now that like it's not even funny what they're dubby no it's just it's yeah the show is not good now i haven't even finished it the foot i remember the first half of the season had me yeah i was like oh this is kind of bringing it back round a bit this could improve and then it's good it's just like it's it's like they thought the humor just came from complexity and it's like so much shit going on at once whereas it was like a perfect balance in the first three seasons and now it's just yeah not fair Bad.
Starting point is 01:20:48 Mmm, ma-me. Let's do one more. Ah! Jimmy, my finger hurt. Hmm. I will do it, boy. Trying to find a good one to end on. No, not things you want.
