Good afternoon, morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 371 of the JARMedia podcast. I am joined by Alex today, who actually is the host, so I don't know why. I figured you haven't done it in a while. And that's one spell... Yeah, there's been a while. W-O-N. What? 371.

Yeah. 370 W-O-N. Nice. Got a question for you, bro. Yeah. How do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters? Do you like them? I have never done one.

Really? I have never... I was too scared. Last time I had the option. Have you seen the design? Someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you. Like the whole point of it was like, this is the design to kill you. And it's like, it's a row of loop-ty-loops that slowly get smaller.

Oh, okay. But the idea being that like it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ. Why did they design this? I guess a disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand.

Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like, what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So, you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh, grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies. They're flinging around. Do people still go on roller coasters? Of course, brer. Big than ever. What else do people want to do

Except you've flown around on Yeah I'm craving a roller coaster Yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster To be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall Oh those are good yeah You get wee wee time to the extreme

Yeah Yeah Because I'm free Yeah Free falling Yeah Yeah a bit of wee comes out Yeah

Just a little bit enough to A couple droplets Yeah a couple droplets To feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans I just want to thank the jailmedia patrons

over at patreon.co.com for supporting this show debatees and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we wouldn't be real we wouldn't be able to

fund the AI generation of our consciousness yeah Well, we, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A. That, uh... True?

Yeah. The... You might have to beep that. What else? Acolytes Like the new Star Wars show You know some words I know but I don't know them But you know them

But you know them but don't know them Yeah like I've heard them but Like used a lot But I've just never like committed A meaning to them Yeah It's a good test when like And you gotta be

If you're one of these fellas that likes You know playing with the vocabulary And likes enjoying it You gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with um one of my bosses many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift yeah um and he was drunk and he was he was explaining something to me because

he thought I was a thief based on how I look. Oh, he profiled you? Yeah, he profiled me. He thought I looked like the thieving type. I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel. Hansolo, Rope, type. Yeah, I guess I got a bit of

a Lando Cow Rizzian. I guess we're both criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah. And then he was like explaining his process. or some shit um and he he used some word and i was like that's an interesting word like a five syllable word or something i was like vociferous yeah he said that's very vociferous of you jamie

and i said vociferous what does vociferous mean yeah that's an interesting word what does that mean and he was like um oh you know well just sort of like um and i was like you know i'm a google it so i sat there in front of him and i was like how do you spell that. Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like vociferous. I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And it was just like red underline. Did you mean fornication? You know, and I was like, oh right, you just like made a word up. Oh, it wasn't, he actually like made it up straight up. Yeah, like it, what he said meant nothing. He was just trying to peacock.

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague yeah just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but I know what that means you know like vociferous yeah

perfect example like palindrome I like um platitude platitude is a goodie that's a very goody awesome word especially how close it is the platypus

yeah exactly I think of like a platypus like platypus stops hmm sorry for the audio listeners I just kind of how do you describe that stunt I'm not sure.

Contemplative? M. Vosiferous? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human. Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast?

I think I did. Like, just the fact that we, as a species, have language. Mm-hmm. and how multifaceted it is and like it's localized yeah and there's like thousands of different ways of using language ones that aren't based in latin ones that have multiple different alphabets yeah like it's like and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's all very cool i love it and like when when you say hear spanish or see spanish but you've learned a bit of french yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately

And then you contrast that to languages You have no point of reference with You see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something I don't even know where to begin How am I supposed to communicate anything? Memes Genuinely, yeah August holiday

Or have you seen like We mentioned it on the last episode Like the Apple Vision Pro and stuff Like there's this tech coming in basically Where you can live translate Text and I'm sure it will do audio. That's an awesome feature in, um, cyberpunk when you're playing and the character speaking

in a different language. That's true. The subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates. So, yeah, I'm definitely pulled out more and more from media where like, if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English and it doesn't make sense, you know, like set in World War II Japan, but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of. Yeah. Yeah, it does take you out.

Yeah, and it's often because, like, people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading. Well, that's flip now. Well, yeah, that's a good thing about the Gen Zias, I guess. They're pushing forward the subtitle. Yeah. Truth. And that's definitely the way of doing it. Like, I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles.

Because I remember, like, I was thinking about this the other day. They're, like, arguments. we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night i'm not wearing hockey pads so people some people were arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like google the script i guess we couldn't we didn't all have friends in our pockets well yeah yeah i suppose it was what 2008 yeah i mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer at the same time the ability yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs.

Oh, what's that them actor that was in that thing? Like, it's like 40 minutes later. You're like, one person remembers it. Yeah. Yeah. So now we will just sit there. Oh, what was that guy that was in Mad Max, Tom Hardy? Mm-hmm.

Thomas Hardy. Or Timothy Hardy. Jesus. Timothy and Thomas are two different names, aren't they? Speaking of Mad Max, have you seen the trailer for... Buryosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers Going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like

I know a lot of people Are excited about Chris Hemsworth But that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he He seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him

I want to see him be like evil and mad as the title suggests I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy like visual design I just yeah

I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's Genie movie Yeah I was that You like that? I did It was it was weird Um

Weird's good And How was it with the like Visual styling was he doing like the stylistic speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion i guess because it the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie yeah and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have opened like met the genie um so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

oh okay um it's all like historic yeah places um but the visual style is is really awesome i love his like dream like cartoony um a lot of cartoony turn and like yeah speeding things up putting the sound effects in it's like super maximalist and like crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it Yeah, mega cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mad Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG, um, and like... And you can tell. Yeah, big time. But it's so vibrant and extreme that you...

Expressive, yeah, and what it's true. You fall into it. Like, he's not, he's not portraying reality. No. He's portraying an exaggeration. like a cartoon um so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking fun and like it fury road all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that

in the filmmaking then like i'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller, he re-directed it. Out of the, what, four Mad Max movies he's done, this will be the fifth. Yeah. Most are good. So, yeah. Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome.

I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah. yeah i watched that his his fury raid video fuck me oh the classic yeah that was the era of nc we don't talk about no more no i think he got the feedback from that he's reeled it way back from that stuff yeah interesting idea admirable but the work ambitious yeah ambitious is

you go by putting it but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom guy vibes you know Phantom guy vibes Yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy Oh well seeing as you mentioned it And we just said the Furious thing The other big trailer right now Is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for Star Wars

Right There's new one Somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show at another dis another disney plus show star wars the acolyte uh it's set like a hundred years before the phantom menace um and there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they were good um so it's going to be sick yeah it's perhaps the first one

which is statistically getting destroyed it's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal because I don't think that's happened even with like

Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah the response has not been quite like that and it's like Yeah, people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Characters people like It's kind of like Maybe

That's what you get That's what you get What do you expect's gonna happen Fuck about find out Uh huh Yeah But like To them

It doesn't even matter. You want to know why? Why? That money that they originally bought the license for they've made back and then some. So like, it's all green in their books. I don't care. Yeah, I guess. They've already diluted the brand to such a degree.

Yeah. You choose that direction? That's what's going to happen. You're going to dilute. It's the only thing they know how to do. Aren't Disney kind of fuck, though? yeah they've kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney Plus has really screwed

them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that right yeah what do you mean the new Disney wish movies no no one's gone to see it and it's made no money. Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that. But that was their strap during COVID. And they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlet Johansson and all this over Black Widow. All this nonsense, yeah. So yeah, no sympathy.

None. Well, yeah. Absolutely no. Fog them. They've, yeah, they've fugged the, the cinema. I don't know about and all season two, though. Yeah, when that shit comes out, I'm going to be used it. Yeah.

I'll unsubscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. We'll just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it and mine. Yeah, sure, actually. Good point in there. Yeah, it's too much They do go The Simpsons, though

And family guy In the UK Our version of Disney Plus Way better than the American one The American one sucks Do they not a family guy? No No, because we get like

Star And like all these random things That are like Different subscriptions in America So it's like If it was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Yeah,

I don't know Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah A bunch of the star stuff Oh word finding Nemo Showgun's on there Finding Nemo Finding Dory

Doug spin-off I refuse to watch Finding Dory It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental The Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For

Best animated feature Really? Yeah Shit looked lame from day one But it's even worse When you watch it Really Right it's like the worst

Concept film ever Yeah The concept sucks Yeah, what if... Whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like

that's a cool concept I want to see that I want to see a car with a mouth I want to see the fantastic four but I'm right Yeah

I think it's cool when you have a cloud with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love but water's always crying

because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery don't want to watch it it sounds like it's written by a child but that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike

have you heard of um oh what's it called it's called like axe cop or something yeah that's from a while ago right yeah that's uh Nick Offerman yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing

oh I didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah yeah oh that's cute that that's funny yeah and i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um yeah fuck disney um i just i guess it really bugs me and i mentioned this on sardonicat's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many's how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw yeah but now all the

metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement it's more like YouTube now where it's like hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at that's what has value now and it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you can play it more times in a day at a movie theater and now it's like films are like three and a half hours long

because you get more watch time on streaming sites and you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content there's like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case

that the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter

was cancelled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is Mind Hunter

required loads of research hard to make loads of talent people on it expensive director like David Fincher and not that many people watched it yeah then Disney big mouth comes out that Jeffrey Dahmer show comes out yeah everyone watches it and it's like well why would why would we well yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under citizen so of course they're not going to do it because they need engagement.

I almost wish they had like view counts and stuff on these shows. Yeah. Because it's like what? At least YouTube is quite transparent with that. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Because if you choose to hide it, then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot.

But yeah, I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it? Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway.

Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between Earth and the moon. Oh, really? Yeah. And if it gets affected in a certain way, in, like, another 30 years, it will come back around to fucking kill us all. Nice. So, um, that's one that, I feel like we could sort that, right? Don't they do tests, like, on that to see, like, they, they are working on, like, systems to...

Like, attach, like, propulsion systems to... Yeah, well, the one Neil de Grasse Tyson was talking about was, like, you send a satellite out to, like, match its orbit. Yeah. Or match its velocity or whatever. And the gravity of the satellite. like it wants to be pulled towards the comet or both of them towards each other but the satellite moves away

so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the that's cool yeah pretty bad ass I feel like it's almost like watchman maybe that's what we need we need something like all the scientists of the world

have got to work together to stop this yeah a big impending doom a black hole is heading straight forward us. Yeah. Yeah, if it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that. Then we'd act real quick.

It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is? To find some kind of meaning

but that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? Mm-hmm. But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career, one person might find a career through family, one person might find a...

A meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or... Learning something. There's many things. different avenues to find meaning through community through church through anything what's the meaning before that the meaning before that yeah like before your individual oh there is no so you're a nihilist mm-mm-hmm what meaning is there when you

have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool, he haven't been born. No, I mean, like, just, like, the fact that, like, the universe exists is pretty sick. Yeah. You know, and the whole, like, the Goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got, like, the Goldie locks of Goldilocks is, and it's still a fucking shit old. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of, like, poetry to being this one ball of,

life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. And everything around it is desolate. And there's just darkness and blackness every way you look. Every other direction you look. Yeah. But also lots of light. Hmm. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play.

I guess we'll see after these messages. Yeah Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah. I can't believe you just said what you said I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just said what you said.

Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar. That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to unfiltered. podcast.

Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies? By the excommunicados?

Well you know what bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now. now but you know what I think you're right when you're going too far go a bit further but

never never look down to look up hmm do you hear me on that one yeah you see now now that I've heard it in words hmm context context is important being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy What do you mean Hold up

What do you mean by plumpy So let's say Let's say you're shooting for the moon Right Shoot for the moon Shoot at the moon Shoot for the moon Even if you miss

You're going to land Among the stars So you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the

podcast where we answer questions from the job media community over on the subreddit over at that suggestion thread like gamers do like magicians do like politicians do probably politicians more than anyone More than anyone.

Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-Contpiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracy theorists. Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers.

Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus fly trap farmers. See... Why are they called Venus flytraps? Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is?

Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... Poonus! No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What do Venus fly-traps look like?

Oh! Well, uh, yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you woke up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly

developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal or would you want to keep the breasts? What would you choose and why? I'll slash try out media before your answer,

replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24 hours to test drive them. Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life

or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. at all times Always lactating You know what If that improves it for you somehow You're allowed to include that

But it's not Locked in Here's the thing right Because Hypothetically A breast milk producing person Right

Yes They can't really drink that milk To survive No That seems like a snake eat in its own tail situation. Yeah, exactly. Like, it's an infinite loop. It doesn't work.

But these aren't just any ordinary breasts. What's different about? Magic. Magic tars. Hmm. Well, my answer is... The fact... Did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed?

So in which case I'm just keeping them Really? You know what? I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery If it's just like a flick And they're gone

Maybe I'd do that Because I was I joked with you earlier In the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast That I like Yeah

You know Yeah Some man breast Because men can have like Some dudes That really get jacked They have tits Straight up

Yeah But like double Ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah so i i guess i'd refuse them in that if i regretted my decision i just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy yeah maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions i was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only digest yeah And all other, like, you limit the use of all of the muscles. Like, you sit down as much as possible.

You want them to atrophy. Yeah, like, eat with your, just your face, you know? So you'll have quite a strong neck. Yeah, neck and chest. That's it, though. Yeah. So you're more like a, like a worm in a way, you know? Yeah, like just a neck.

A worm with tits. Oh, that would be a good title if it. was allowed. Wern with tits. What about a one with tars? Wern with tots. A one with baps. There are some foul slang terms for body parts.

Yeah, and they're all British. They're all British. They're all foul. And it's all about the... Willie, it's all about the foof, you know? Mm-hmm. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, keep it simple.

Keep it simple, but keep it foul. Yeah, keep it footh. Foof's too friendly. Keep it cunt. Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word.

Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word. Why? It means children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly.

I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of footh, of footh. I think that's exactly right. Yeah, too much fear of footh in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to sue. up babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League darts man saying 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. Also, do you guys

follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK? Keep fighting the good farming as a bubba. Did you hear about the legendary darts player? Which one? The 16 year old. No? What recently? Yeah, the 16 year

old, um, little dude. Just a little legend. like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy he's a dart prodigy and it's kind of awesome you know that is like a real life old kind of awesome because it's like a really random like why is a 16 year old playing darts

like I say it's so heavily with like pubs and bars or whatever yeah like overweight middle age man yeah yeah because that's who it's four yeah because it's you know it's not the hardest game like anyone could play it yeah Pretty much. Yeah. You need at least one arm.

Yeah. That's... And even then, do you even need all your fingers? You need... At least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum.

Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like... It's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you've played it. It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah. A bit boring.

be a belly boring pub game yeah that's the the the DT president um you know old man exactly yeah

but I had never really played that's before until well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar

so it's kind of like a microbrewery but giant a giant microbrewery micro brewery a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us and something clicked did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board and kind of get it like where i wanted it yeah that was that was that was that was that was the feedback loop kind of like what you're saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know rich old dudes yeah walking around um the actual

game the the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so like impossible to think about anything else. So I quite like it from that perspective. Yeah. Mind clear. Like, I'm here.

I'm doing this. I can't do anything else. Yeah. Which is a good, which is a good quality of most sport, to be honest. It's like. Yeah. I mean, even going to the gym is that for me. But they asked me to do the impression.

So I'm 180. I guess I never. That's one of those like osmosis things where like you, know it but you don't know it's from. Yeah, I didn't even know it was from Darts. I didn't know until this question. Like I swear like in primary school, like people on the playground would just go

180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today. We finally got the payoff yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? I like, is badminton

obscure? I've, dude, I love badminton. Badminton's awesome. Yeah. That's another like feedback you get when you smack that badminton it's got that perfect art yeah i love i love the speed of it as well because when you smack it it it goes really fast and then like suddenly slows down yeah yeah and then it it's quite i think an easy game but then the it it turns into more like mind games yeah where you're like going like you're gonna whack it and then you slow down and yeah just do the tiny tap that's the most like humiliating thing the tiny tap yeah sprint yeah but then

when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yes it dude it's so fun it is fun i love like running around like that you know i guess hard work very good yeah i'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my apple watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy Just drive around? Yeah, I'd bug it. Really?

What? Can I not bug it? No. What? Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere.

But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sizurp out of it. You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah, pretty much it's just apple juice anyway. Let's be real.

Revert to Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code from Sting part three. I've not received my free ticket or token yet. Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of

reports about this. Just want to reiterate, there is a three to six, maybe 12, Possibly 24-month waiting period. But don't worry. It'll be sorted. Yeah, you're locked in.

You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. It was a sponsor. It was a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility.

We have zero responsibility. Hmm. Well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says How far is Alex through his current RDR2 playthrough? Been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth, why you finish that quick?

And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state.

Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling. But Avatar The Last Airbender, like... No, no, like post-Avatar the movie. The James Cameron movie. You know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like... Right, where people were.

Man, I wish that was my life. This sucks. Oh, okay. Right, yeah, that's really not a feeling I get from Dead Island. I don't want to live in the 1890s. Old West if I can. uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this are near dark souls and undertale which i still think alex should play trust me bro it's really good i swear i would try to bribe him by saying i'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron even above patron but i don't want to risk pulling a james um i've got nothing against undertail even like it's been on my backlog list for a million years um the main the main reason i never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant

through osmosis you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know yeah then it kind of defeats the the point of the game being like it's it's very subversive and yeah and like clever dialogue yeah and it messes with your expectations i think and going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point it's it's like um right that that other game um the space one oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer world not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh

my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games right ever made yeah yeah i've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog i just got huge video in about i just got a million backlogs yeah i watched a really good video on um backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's backlogue i actually get through think it's a guy called Daryl Talks Games. I think that's the channel.

Awesome content. And yeah, he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something. He does the first part of the video, and then he says, in a month, I'm going to update, I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play. How many? And how much he enjoyed, like, the process of going through his backlog. And I don't want to spoil it So I think people should Watch it

I like that It's a fantastic video Because it's yeah It's not just The backlog of games There's my IMDB watch list of films Yeah yeah There's this pile of books

I haven't read like tune And all these other ones I own Um All the music I haven't listened to Man Too much Yeah and there's like day to day living We gotta fit that in your life

yeah yeah as well and video games suck a lot more time from you than that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this

because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything

but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like it's so good

and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough yeah and then I've got to do the epilogue which always has the same arc for me of like when you start

but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah I could probably like bang out

the last act that I'm on in a couple hours but yeah I'm just like stuck I can't bring myself to do see the way the way I mentally prepare myself

is I always make a save that's not bad idea in like chapter three kind of the or a point the game before it goes to good vibes yeah you know enough through the game so you have access to pretty much everything yeah before you pretty yeah i probably should have made like a save in act two or three yeah i mean i i i used to do the same thing with reddeb one yeah um in preparation

for but um i do need to finish it because i do really want to do like a discussion on it uh i've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as i've been playing a been like note and stuff down about it and all this um and just coincidentally i've seen uh like some articles and big like youtube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game because there's been like a resurgence of people playing it there was an update for it recently which was like a surprise yeah yeah they fixed some stuff in online it's been annoying yeah all this but yeah um Ooh Ozzy Eric says Alex

You've mentioned multiple times How you think the Halo franchise is ruined Beyond repair But suppose the JAR boys Were tasked with spearheading the next Halo trilogy of games Let's say jar for jar industries Are now the creative leads of HALA

Where would you take the franchise In both a narrative sense and multiplayer This is a good one to answer with James not being here I could do what he would say Yeah, or just Kill it I was having a little think about this And my response would be extreme

Like if I'm playing into the hypothetical My response would be very extreme Day one I'm in Everything 343 made retconned That's not canon anymore We're starting again From Hell of Four Give it a different name or something

Um See give it enough time Well you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you need to do similar suite a matching suite Taylor Reach as far as content's concerned campaign multiplayer forge theater um have enough maps

yeah like what else do you actually need to do like and if all those are just to a certain quality standard and it's there day one invasion yeah well that'll be in there you know different game modes maybe try I feel like if they made a good invasion mode sorted

how many how many invasion maps were there in reach and we were satisfied two three was it three and then they added in a couple of one was DLC they added in a few forge ones that sucked um yeah but like on on release there were two yeah and the DLC one kind of sucked so like and the original two

awesome um so if if a good invasion mode was in a hell again expand that big time yeah yeah big big time um of course like the tv show has just wrapped up season two i haven't watched any of it yet uh but i'm gonna probably binge it uh when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah. This is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. Like, that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV share that, like, everyone

hates outside of like boomers that watch it on TV and like it because it's just like CG monsters. Yeah. Fight the aliens. I don't think it's actually complicated. I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared. to make a Halo game this whole time, but they made this bed for themselves.

Like, let's reinvent the wheel. Oh, hang on, let's reinvent the wheel again. Oh, wait, that didn't work. Let's reinvent the wheel again. Let's try and un-invent the wheel. Yeah, and it's like, well, if you just kind of made the thing. Yeah. But in terms of, like, plot after Halo 3,

I almost think, oh, you're playing with fire with that, but I almost think, like, a Smash Bros. Ultimate. type approach would be the answer the smash bro's ultimate yeah where I'm thinking like if you're the one taking

the baton from bungee or whatever why not just do like levels it's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new one

um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything like no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it. There's nowhere to go.

Like, the story's told. And I think there's a reason everything. I mean, they had shite writers. Yeah. That's like a fact. But I don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction. Yeah. Well,

it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spin-off game next or something. Like, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah. This fill in this thing. Let's have a blood horror game or something like you know that would be sick because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the the star

was episode nine problem where it's like when I kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original see I I would like a game and because I kind of have issues with ODST um in that you feel too powerful I don't feel like an ODST I go you mean I'm playing it further? They, yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But a game designed around actually making you feel like the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat. Because when you're playing as chief, unless you're on legendary, like, it's kind of a cakewalk. Yeah. No one enemy is very threat. If you could design a game that's more survival horror, like, you know, and more sim-y, I guess. That would be a big one, though, is the, they abandoned the horror influence completely.

When I think that's a core part of the honesty of the franchise. It has to be in there because it's so, like, watered down and, like, fucking boring the new ones. Yeah, like, there's no edge to it. Yeah, there's no grit. Yeah. whatsoever. Whereas, like, the original games, they're, like, inspired by, like, aliens and, like, violent 80s, like, over-the-top Starship Troopers and stuff like that. Yeah, they're, like, scary, they're intense.

Yeah, gross and... Yeah. Horrifying. Yeah. Yeah. The franchise is fucked. Yeah, it's pretty much over. Like, they would...

The only way would be to, like, just disappear for, like, 15 years... It's what they should have done, but like... Yeah. But again, I don't see how the story can continue. Because the, like, Covenant, you'd want to be fighting Covenant, but that story's wrapped up. You need another faction, but you've beaten the flood. So what do you feel that in? You can't bring the flood back because, like you said, the...

Yeah, undercuts, yeah. That's why I think if you did, like, a Smash Bros. Ultimate thing where it's like, remasters, re-envisionings of, like, classic... levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like i don't know you could do someone like that um yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with forged like they're just making halo one yeah yeah yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with infinite was like oh take you know the the classic level and let's like expand it into a whole boring map and go from there yeah it's just expanding it the wrong way yeah

I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media Podcast. I am joined by Alex today, who actually is the host, so I don't know why. I figured, you haven't done it in a while. And that's one spell.

Yeah, it's been a while. W-O-N. What? 371? Yeah. 370 W-O-N. Nice. Got a question for you, bro.

Yeah. How do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters? You like them? I have never done one. Really? I have never... I was too scared. Last time I had the option.

Have you seen the design? someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it Jesus Christ why did they design this I guess a disturbed engineer okay thought it would be a fun idea because they must I guess they must know like vague parameters of what like the average human

can withstand because some of these rides are pretty nuts like what they're doing they seem to just get crazier so you don't yeah you'd hope

the engineers like have a good grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters

of course bro bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on yeah

Yeah, I'm craving a roller coaster. Yeah, I've been kind of craving a roller coaster, to be honest. I like the ones that just go up and then fall. Oh, those are good, yeah. Yeah, you get wee-wey time to the extreme. Yeah. Yeah. Because I'm free.

Yeah. Free falling, yeah. Yeah, a bit of wee comes out. Yeah. Just a little bit, enough to... A couple droplets. Yeah, a couple droplets to feel it on the boxer, but not the gene. Yeah.

Feel it on the boxer, but not the gene. And speaking of boxers and jeans, I just want to thank the jailmedia patrons over at patreon.co.uk.com for supporting this show, debitties, and above getting their names read out at the start of every month, first or second week. We wouldn't exist. We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right?

I'm more scared of the I-A. The Irish Army. True. Yeah. The... You might have to beep that. What else? The...

Intelligent acolytes. Like the new Star Wars show. You know, someone. words I know but I don't know them. But you know them but don't know them. Yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot but I've just never

like committed a meaning to them. Yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it you gotta be ready for if you whip out

crazy words and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean? because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses many years ago

before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look Oh, he profiled you? Yeah, he profiled me.

He thought I looked like the thieving type. I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel. Hansolo, Rope, or type. Yeah, I guess I got a bit of a Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that?

Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah. And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. Um, and he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word, like a five-syllable word or something. I was like, wow. Vosyphorus. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said, vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm going to Google it.

So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that? Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out.

And I sounded it out. And it was just like red underline. Did you mean fornication? You know, and I was like, oh, right. You just like made a word up. Oh, he actually like made it up straight up. Yeah, like it, what he said meant nothing. He was just trying to peacock.

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day But I know what that means. Mm-hmm. You know, like vociferous. Yeah, perfect example. Like palindrome. I like, um, platitude. Platitude is a goodie.

That's a very goodie. Awesome word. Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Mm. Sorry for the audio listeners.

I just kind of... How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Sure. Contemplative? M. Vosiferous? Yeah. I love words, though.

I think it's one of the best things about being a human. Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. and how multifaceted it is and like it's localized yeah and there's like thousands of different ways

of using language ones that aren't based in latin ones that have multiple different alphabets yeah like it's like and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to Italy and you can see the language is different, but you can see like, oh, I can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the Latin, a reference to some Latin. Yeah. Yeah. It's all very cool.

I love it. And like when, when you say hear Spanish or see Spanish written, but you've learned a bit of French. Yeah. And you can be like, wait, these, that means that because they're close together. so they kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like russian written down or mandarin or something and like i don't even know where to begin like how am i supposed to communicate

anything memes generally yeah august holiday or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in but basically, where you can live translate, text, and I'm sure it will do audio. That's an awesome feature in, um, cyberpunk when you're playing and the characters speaking in a different language. That's true. The subtitles come up as the foreign language, and then it translates. So, yeah, I'm definitely pulled out more and more from media where, like, if it's set in a

different country, but they're speaking English, and it doesn't make sense, you know, like, Saturn World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type Yeah Yeah it does take you out Yeah and it's often because like People don't want to read subtitles Because it's reading

Well that's flip now Well yeah That's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle Yeah Truth And that's definitely the way of doing it Like it

I absorb so much more information now Since I started watching stuff with subtyters Because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day They're like arguments we'd have About movies and stuff Like the dark night I'm not wearing hockey pads

It's like people Some people were arguing They heard like hockey pads Some thought they heard hockey pants Yeah And like people would argue on the playground It's like We could have just like

Google the script I guess We didn't all have fans in our pockets Yeah Yeah I suppose it was what 2008 Yeah I mean it's

It is kind of a conversation killer at the same time. Yeah, because that is what people would talk about in pubs. Oh, what's that them actor that was in that thing? Like, it's like 40 minutes later, you're like, one person remembers it. Yeah. Yeah. So now we will just sit there. Oh, what was that guy that was in Mad Max, Tom Hardy?

Mm-hmm. Thomas Hardy. Or Timothy Hardy. Jesus. Timothy and Thomas are two different names, aren't they? Speaking of About Max, have you seen the trailer for Furiosa?

The new trailer Yeah I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not

I was like I know a lot of people are excited about Chris Hemsworth But that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad

As the title suggests I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy like visual design I just yeah I haven't seen

I didn't see Miller's Genie movie Yeah I was that You like that I did It was weird Um Weird's good

And how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the the flamboyance in in motion i guess because it the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago oh okay it's all like historic yeah places but the visual style is is really awesome I love his like dream like cartoony um a lot of cartoony turn and like yeah speeding things up, putting the sound effects in.

It's like super maximalist and like crazy cartoonish. It's a good way of putting it. Yeah, mega cartoonish. Because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mad Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And like... And you can tell. Yeah, big time.

But it's so vibrant and extreme that you... Expressive, yeah. You fall into it. to it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon um so if there's some cool cars like when I saw um Hemsworth on the chariot the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the

filmmaking, then, like, I'm going to eat that shit up. Because, yeah, it's still George Miller. He wrote and directed it. Out of the, what, four Mad Max movies he's done, this will be the fifth. Yeah. Most are good.

So, yeah. Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen one and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome, though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I watched that. His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back from that stuff.

Yeah. Interesting idea, admirable. Yeah, the work. Ambitious. Yeah, ambitious. This is a good bit of putting it, but ambition doesn't always pay off. Yeah, kind of, uh, phantom guy vibes, you know? Phantom guy vibes.

Yeah, Star Wars, the Phantom guy. Oh, well, seeing as you mentioned it, and we just said the Furiosa thing, the other big trailer right now, is, I guess the new, new, new, new, new, new, new, new, new, new, new, new. low point for Star Wars, right? This new one. Somehow, like, Kathleen Kennedy, she's, like, been digging like a mole, and it's like, we found a new,

a new depth. We can, we can bury. This trailer came out for this show, another Disney Plus show. Star Wars, the Acoid. It's set, like, a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's, like,

loads of cosplayers, like in, in the forest and they were good um so it's going to be sick yeah it's um it's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed it's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like i feel like it's kind of a big deal because i don't think that's happened even with like rise of skywalker or the like anything like that even the last Jedi like yeah the response has not been quite like that and it's like yeah people are pretty done especially with Dune being as successful as it is and like having this like it's like well directed it's memorable it's got the cast people like characters people

like it's kind of like maybe that's what you get that's what you get is what do you expect it's gonna fuck about find out uh-huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you know wanna know why why money that they originally bought the license for they've made back and then so so like it's all green in their books i don't care yeah i guess they've already diluted the brand to such a degree like yeah you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're going to dilute. It's the only thing they know how to do. Aren't Disney kind of fuck, though?

Yeah, they've kind of... The whole, like, 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is, like, really screwing them now. They went in, so... Their approach to Disney Plus has really screwed them. Like, their films have, like, no value now. Like, people...

They've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus, and now they're, like, upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. what do you mean the new disney wish movies no one's gone to see it and it's made no money well it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it yeah yeah well they stopped doing that um but that was their strap during COVID um and they lost like a big lawsuit with um scarlet johansson um and all this over black widow

all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy um none well yeah absolutely no fog them they've yeah they've they've they've fugged the the cinema god know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out i'm gonna be you yeah I'll unsubscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. We'll just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point.

Yeah, it's too much. They do got The Simpsons, though. I'm Family Guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star and, like, all these random things that, like,

are different subscriptions in America. It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah a bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo

Finding Dory Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah

For Best Animated feature Really? Yeah. Shit looked lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right?

It's like the worst concept film ever. Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was... Whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them, where it's like, that's a cool concept. I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth.

I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's... cool when you have a cloud with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love but

water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery don't you want to watch it it? It sounds like it's written by a child but that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike Have you heard of um

oh what's it called? It's called like Axecop or something Yeah that's from a while ago right yeah that's uh nick offerman yeah and like the thing is that it was a a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and then yeah oh that's cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um yeah fuck disney um i just i guess it really bugs me and i mentioned this on so donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like i don't know what

the definition of success is anymore like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many dbds or blu-rays you saw yeah but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement it's more like youtube now where it's like hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at that's what has value now and it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivised to be shorter so you can play it more times in a day at a movie theater and now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites and you can release like the zach sider extended versions and more content it's like more

to sit through yeah the only thing i i wish it was the case that the the the shit things on like netflix and amazon prime and stuff i i wish i wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund something good like mind hunter i think like the day mind hunter was cancelled it was like okay netflix has no value

because the one incredibly good show that they had Yeah. It was cancelled. So not enough people were watching it. Yeah, because the thing is, um, Mind Hunter, quite loads of research, hard to make loads of talented people on it,

expensive director like David Fincher. Mm-hmm. Um, and not that many people watched it. Yeah. Then Disney. Big mouth comes out. That Jeffrey Dahmer show comes out.

Yeah. Everyone watches it. It's like, well, why would, why would we? Well, yeah. yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under citizen so of course they're

not going to do it because they they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally any one reason for that if you're hiding your metrics it's like that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot but

yeah I don't like it it's all hidden and how you're supposed to like analyze it yeah if there's no metrics anymore yeah

oh well the world's coming to an end soon anyway yeah next week I heard well there's that big comet that's gonna like go between earth

the moon. Oh, really? Yeah. And if it gets affected in a certain way, in like another 30 years, it will come back around and fucking kill us all. Nice. So, um,

that's one that, I feel like we could sort that. Right? Don't they do tests, like, on that to see, like, they are working on, like, systems to... Like, attach, like, propulsion systems to... Yeah, well,

the one, uh, Neil de Grasth Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the comet or both of them towards each other but the satellite moves away

so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty bad ass. I feel like it's almost like watchman Maybe that's what we need We need something like A united All the scientists of the world

Gotta work together to stop this Yeah Big impending doom A black hole is heading straight for us Yeah If it's coming And everyone's just like There are probably immigrants on that

Then we'd act real quick It's that alien immigrants Yeah xenophobes Unite together Yeah, space is crazy Yeah What do you think the point of life is? To find

Some kind of meaning But that meaning can be multifaceted So you think the meaning is to find meaning But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual One person might find meaning through a career One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game, but then the

it turns into more like mind games. Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up and yeah, yeah. Yeah, dude, it's so

fun. It is fun. I love like running around like that you know I guess hard work very good yeah I'd probably suck at it now now that my cardiovascular health is suboptimal as my Apple Watch tells me what sport do you not need card cardiovascular health darts golf and golf golf is quite a bit of walking you do a lot of walking or you just get in a buggy just drive around yeah I'd bug it Really? What?

Can I not bug it? No. No bugging it here, no bugging it there. No bugging it anywhere. But I tell you what I am bugging, bro. Outside of this frozen rattler. It's making me feel funky. You drank all the sysurp out of it.

You drank all the lean out of it. No, it's just straight apple juice. Yeah. Pretty much is just apple juice anyway. Let's be real. Reverter Monkey says I purchased two organization sessions from Vippet Pippet using the QR code

from Sting Part 3 I've not received my free ticket or token yet Is there a number or email I can contact for assistance? So we have a number of reports about this Just want to reiterate there is a 3 to 6 maybe 12 Possibly 24 month waiting period But don't worry

It'll be sorted Yeah, you're locked in. You did what you need to do. I'm feeling pretty locked in this episode. Yeah, but like stop hassling us. It's not our company. Yeah, exactly. It was a sponsor.

Just a sponsor, man. Yeah, we're not them. No responsibility. We have zero responsibility. Hmm, well, speaking of nothing to do with this comment, Mr. Blue Pumpkin says, How far is Alex through his current RDR2 play-through? I've been replaying it myself since beating Final Fantasy Rebirth.

Why you finish that quick? And goddamn, that game is a masterpiece. I haven't finished it since my first rush play-through back in 2018. It's still one of the few games that put such a serene, avatar-like state of pure and utter bliss, with a dash of misery, of course. Sorry, just serene avatar-like state. Do they mean James Cameron or Avatar? I think they mean that post-Avatar depression feeling.

but avatar the last air bender like no no like post avatar the movie the james camera movie you know that depression everyone felt after watching the movie and being like right where people man i wish that was my life this sucks oh okay right yeah that's really not a feeling i get from bed i don't want to live in in the 1890s uh old west if i can uh the only games that even come close to making me feel this So near Dark Souls and Undertail, which I still think Alex should play. Trust me, bro. It's really good, I swear.

I would try to bribe him by saying I'll become a dibby tier or possibly even a patron. Even above patron, but I don't want to risk pulling a James. I've got nothing against Undertale even. Like, it's been on my backlog list for a million years. The main reason I never picked it up is because it was so culturally significant that through osmosis, you pick up everything about it and just end up learning everything there is to know. So then it kind of defeats the point of the game being like it's very subversive and... Yeah, and like clever dialogue.

Yeah, and it messes with your expectations, I think. And going into it and not knowing that is kind of the point. It's like that other game, um, the space one. oh yeah yeah the outer wilds not the outer worlds not the outer worlds because that shit stinks the outer wilds if if i knew what the that game was like about what the game was before i first played it and i i never finished it which is a sin but the the like the click yeah how it functions is like oh my god this this is a masterpiece like i don't need to have finished the game to be able to say this is one of the most incredible games

ever made yeah yeah I've always heard that and that's another one on the backlog I just got huge video in about I just got a million backlogs yeah I watched a really good video on them backlogs that oh really what was the thesis um like it just just how possible a backlog is because this guy's back to get through I think it's a guy called Daryl Talks games I think that's the channel awesome content and yeah

he's got like a backlog of 160 games or something and he does the first part of the video and then he says in a month I'm going to update I'm going to do a sequel video and see how many of the games I managed to play

and how much he enjoyed like the process of going through his backlog and I don't want to spoil it so I think people should watch it I like that. It's a fantastic video. Because it's, yeah, it's not just the backlog of games. There's my IMDB watch list of films.

Yeah, yeah. There's this pile of books I haven't read, like, tune, and all these other ones I own. All the music I haven't listened to. Man, too much. Yeah, and there's, like, day-to-day living. Well, yeah, you've got to fit that in your life. Yeah, yeah. As well.

And video games, such. a lot more time from you than like that's the thing yeah they are a big commitment time sync but to answer the question and I was saying this to you the other week when you were asking me about this because I guess it's my third play-through I've read that I've mentioned it a couple times in the past few months I've gotten to that point the misery point of the game where I'm like spoilers yeah I'm not going to say anything but I don't know it's like so dower I feel like I've got to like mentally prepare myself for the segment of the game because it's like

it's so good and everything's been like building to this segment but it's like rough um yeah and then i've got to do the apologue um which always has the same arc for me of like uh like when you start but then you play it a bit and you're like okay yeah let's do that yeah so yeah uh I could probably like bang out the last act that I'm on in a couple hours. But yeah, I'm just like stuck. I can't bring myself to do it. See, the way I mentally prepare myself is I always make a save. That's not bad idea.

In like chapter three, kind of the point in the game. Before it goes to good vibes. Yeah. Enough through the game so you have access to pretty. much everything. Yeah. Before. Yeah, I probably should have made like a save in Act two or three.

Yeah. I mean, I used to do the same thing with Red Dead One. Yeah. In preparation for... But I do need to finish it because I do really want to do like a discussion on it. I've made like heaps of notes for it and have like a dock as I've been playing. I've been like note and stuff down about it and all this. And just coincidentally, I've seen...

seen, like, some articles and big, like, YouTube videos and stuff coming out to do with the game, because there's been, like, a resurgence of people playing it. There was an update for it recently, which was, like, a surprise. Yeah, yeah, they fixed some stuff in online. It's been annoying. Yeah. All this, but yeah. Um.

Ooh. Ozzy Eric says Alex. You've mentioned multiple times how you think the Halo franchise is ruined beyond repair but suppose the jar boys were tasked with spearheading the next halo trilogy of games let's say jar for jar industries are now the creative leads of halo where would you take the franchise in both in narrative sense and multiplayer this is a good one to answer with james not being here i could do what he would say yeah or just um kill it i was having a little think about this and my my response would be extreme like if if i'm playing into that

hypothetical my response would be very extreme day one I'm in everything 343 made recond that's not canon anymore we're starting again from hello four give it a different name or something see give it enough time

you need that yeah you need many many many years of pre-production like Valve star where like you are gone and like you're not showing this thing until like you have something at least a complete game for a start because honestly I think that's almost like all you'd need to do. Similar suite.

A matching suite, Taylor Reach, as far as content's concerned. Campaign, multiplayer, forge, theater. Have enough maps. Yep. Like, what else do you actually need to do? And if all those are just to a certain quality standard, and it's there, day one. Invasion. Yeah.

Will that be in there, you know? Different game modes, maybe try. Like if they made a good invasion mode, sorted. How many invasion maps were there in reach? And we were satisfied two. Three? Was it three?

And then they added in a couple of, one was DLC, they added in a few forged ones that sucked. Yeah, but like on release, there were two. Yeah. And the DLC one kind of sucked. So like, and the original two, awesome. So if a good invasion mode was in a hell again?

Because you could expand that, big time. Yeah, big, big time. Of course, like, the TV show is just wrapped up season two. I haven't watched any of it yet, but I'm going to probably binge it when we're back from Vegas or something. It's like, wow, yeah, this is just fucking pathetic, like, so dead. Yeah. That's the thing that's the thing that's carrying the franchise is this TV show that everyone hates outside of, like, boomers that watch it on TV. and like it because it's just like

CG monsters fight the aliens I don't think it's actually complicated I think they overcomplicated it and were so scared to make a hail again this whole time that they made this bed for themselves like let's reinvent the wheel

oh hang on let's reinvent the wheel again oh wait that didn't work let's reinvent the wheel again let's try and uninvent the wheel yeah and it's like well if you just kind of made the thing yeah But in terms of like plot

After Halo 3 I almost think You're playing with fire with that But I almost think like a Smash Bros Ultimate Type approach Would be the answer The Smash Bros Ultimate Yeah

Where I'm thinking like If you're the one taking the baton From Bungie or whatever Why not just do like Levels It's basically what infinite was supposed to be you know have levels that are designed in ode to all the good old halo levels inspire them expand them build them into whatever this newer sandboxes or this new

one um remaster the maps people like remind people what people actually like about it instead of like the three lane cod boring thing no personality to anything but no character and just go from there like if that's what four was instead of whatever that was well yeah there's just no foundation but specifically in terms of like the campaign story i think you were just in trouble yeah i don't think you can really touch it there's nowhere to go like the story's told and he i think there's a reason everything i mean they they had shite writers yeah that's like a fact but i don't think you can write a sequel without it coming off as like fan fiction.

Yeah. Well, it didn't need to be that continuation. It could have been a spinoff game next or something. It could, like, DST2, or blah, blah, blah, blah, this fill in this thing,

let's have a flood horror game or something. Like, you know. That would be sick. Because now they're in the problem where they can't really bring the flood back because then it's like the Star Wars episode nine problem where it's like when I're kind of undercutting what the main character did in the original.

See, I would like a game. And, because I kind of have issues with ODST, in that you feel too powerful. I don't feel like an ODST. I go, you mean they could have taken it up further? Yeah. Helldivers. Yeah, which they had the option to do. Yeah, they pitched, yeah.

But if a game designed around actually making you feel like, the covenant is an actual threat or the flood is an actual threat because when you're playing as chief unless you're on legendary like it's kind of a cakewalk and no one enemy is very

threatening if you could design a game that's more survival horror like you know and more simi I guess that would be a big one though is the

they abandoned the horror influence completely when I think that's a core part of the intensity of the franchise it has to be in there because it's so like watered down and like fucking boring

the new ones there's no edge to it yeah there's no grit yeah whatsoever it's like the original games they're like inspired by aliens and like violent 80s like over the top Starship Troopers and stuff like that they're like scary they're intense yeah gross and

yeah horrifying yeah the franchise is fucked um yeah it's pretty much over um like they would the only way would be to like just disappear for like 15 years that's what they should have done but like yeah but again i don't see how the story can continue because the the like covenant you'd want to be fighting covenant but that story's wrapped up you need another faction but you've beaten the flood so yeah you can't bring the flood back because like you said the

yeah undercuts yeah um that's why i think if you did like a smash bro's ultimate thing where it's like remasters re-envisionings of like classic levels and it's like yeah 10 levels that are like I don't know you could do someone like that

yeah that'll be safer at least yeah because people do that anyway with Forge like they're just making Halo 1 in Halo infinite yeah that's clearly what people want like and that was supposed to be the idea with Infinite was like, oh, take, you know, the classic level and let's like expand it

into a whole boring map and go from there. Yeah. It's just expanding it the wrong way, yeah. I think you're on the money. Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho. Good afternoon, morning, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to episode 3171 of the JAR Media podcast I'm joined by

Alex today who actually is the host so I don't know why I figured you haven't done it in a while and that's one spell it's been a while W-O-N what

371 yeah 370 W-O-N nice got a question for you bro yeah how do you feel about loop-ty-loops on roller coasters

you like them I have never done one really I have never I was too scared last time I had the option have you seen the design someone designed a roller coaster that will kill you

like the whole point of it was that is like this is the design to kill you and it's like it's a row of loopty loops that slowly get smaller oh okay with the idea idea being that like, it cuts off oxygen for just long enough so that you would die by the end of it. Jesus Christ.

Why did they design this? I guess a, uh, disturbed engineer. Okay. Thought it would be a fun idea. Because they must, I guess they must know, like, vague parameters of what, like, the average human can withstand. Because some of these rides are pretty nuts, like what they're doing. Yeah, they seem to just get crazier. So you don't, yeah, you'd hope the engineers, like, have a good, uh,

grasp over what they're doing to the human bodies they're flinging around do people still go on roller coasters of course bruh bigger than ever in recessions what else do people want to do except you've flown around on

yeah I'm craving a roller coaster yeah I've been kind of craving a roller coaster to be honest I like the ones that just go up and then fall oh those are good yeah you get wee wee time to the extreme

yeah yeah because I'm free yeah free falling yeah yeah a bit of we comes out yeah yeah just a little bit enough to couple droplets yeah a couple droplets to to feel it on the the boxer but not the gene yeah feel it on the boxer but not the gene baby and speaking of boxers and jeans i just want to thank the job media patrons over at

patreon.com for supporting this show debitiz and above getting their names read out at the start of every month first or second week we wouldn't exist we would We wouldn't be real. We wouldn't be able to fund the AI generation of our consciousness. Yeah. Well, we hopped on the AI. You know, everyone's talking about AI, right? I'm more scared of the I-A.

The Irish Army. True. Yeah. the you might have to beat that what else the intelligent

acolytes like the new Star Wars show you know some words I know but I don't know them but you know them but don't know them yeah like I've heard them but like used a lot

but I've just never like committed a meaning to them yeah it's a good test when like and you gotta be if you're one of these fellas that likes you know playing with the vocabulary and likes enjoying using it

you gotta be ready for if you whip out a crazy word and someone says oh I'm not sure what that means what does that mean because then it's a chance for you to be like can't remember or hold on see I had a moment like this with one of my bosses

many years ago before he was my boss like it was my training shift and he was drunk and he was explaining something to me because he thought I was a thief based on how I look

oh he profiled you yeah he profiled me he thought I looked like the thieving type I guess I'm a bit of a scoundrel and solo rope sort of type yeah I guess I got a bit of a

Lando Cow Rizzine. I guess we're both like criminals and scumbag smugglers then. Yeah. Yeah. What's the deal with that? Do we have like, shifty eyes or something? Well, yeah.

And then he was like explaining his process or some shit. And he, he used some word. And I was like, that's an interesting word. Like a five syllable word or something. I was like, vociferous. Yeah.

He said that's very vociferous of you, Jamie. And I said vociferous. What does vociferous mean? Yeah. That's an interesting word. What does that mean? And he was like, um, oh, you know, well, just sort of like, um, and I was like, you know, I'm a Google it. So I sat there in front of him and I was like, how do you spell that?

Did you actually? Yeah. And he was like, vociferous. Um, I don't know. I've had a few beers. I don't know how to spell it. And I was like, okay, I'll just like try and sound it out and I sounded it out. And, um, it was just like red underline.

Did you mean, um, fornication? you know and and uh and I was like oh right you just like made a word up oh it wasn't he actually like made it up straight up yeah like it what he said meant nothing he was just trying to peacock

oh he's like whipping out circumlocution he's like yeah yeah like I'm going to assert my dominance by just making just trying to sound intelligent yeah it's a delicate battle that because you want

ideally you want to use the word that's like in the middle of that it's not the obvious word it's not the like extreme like you've gone on thesaurus dot com and gone to the most like vague one just somewhere in the middle something like oh you don't hear that every day but i know what that means you know like vociferous yeah perfect example like palindrome i like um platitude platitude is a goody that's a very goody awesome word Especially how close it is to platypus. Yeah, exactly. I think of like a platypus, like... Platypus stops. Sorry for the audio listeners. I just kind of...

How do you describe that stance? I'm not sure. Contemplative? Vosophorus? Yeah. I love words, though. I think it's one of the best things about being a human.

Yeah. Language and words and writing. Did I say this recently on a podcast? I think I did. Like, just the fact that we as a species have language. Mm-hmm. And how multifaceted it is and like it's localized. Yeah.

And there's like thousands of different ways of using language. Ones that aren't based in Latin. ones that have multiple different alphabets and they've all got thousands and thousands of years of history that have led to this point and it's like that's very cool yeah that's extremely cool that you can go to italy and you can see the language is different but you can see like oh i can figure out like the meaning of that because that's clearly the latin a reference to some latin yeah it's like yeah it's all

very cool i love it and like when when you say here Spanish or see Spanish written but you've learned a bit of French yeah and you can be like wait these that means that because they're close together so they yeah kind of like borrowed stuff and then it evolved separately and then you like contrast that to languages you have no point of reference with you see like Russian written down or Mandarin or something and like I don't even know where to begin like how am I supposed to communicate anything memes genuinely yeah august holiday

or have you seen like uh we mentioned it on the last episode like the apple vision pro and stuff like there's this tech coming in basically where you can live translate um text and i'm sure it'll do audio

that's an awesome feature in um cyberpunk when you're playing in the character speaking in a different language the subtitles come up as the foreign language and then it translates yeah and definitely pulled out more and more from media where like if it's set in a different country but they're speaking English

and it doesn't make sense you know like set in World War II Japan but all the Japanese people are speaking English type of yeah yeah it does take you out yeah and it's often because like people don't want to read subtitles because it's reading well that's flip now

well yeah that's a good thing about the Gen Zias I guess they're pushing forward the subtitle yeah truth and that's definitely the way of doing it like it I absorb so much more information now since I started watching stuff with subtitles because I remember like I was thinking about this the other day there are like arguments we'd have about movies and stuff like the dark night

I'm not wearing hockey pads it's like people some people arguing they heard like hockey pads some thought they heard hockey pants yeah and like people would argue on the playground it's like we could have just like Google the script I guess we didn't all have phones in our pockets yeah yeah I suppose it was what 2008 yeah I mean it's it is kind of a conversation killer

at the same time yeah because that that is what people would talk about in pubs oh what's that them actor that was in that thing like it's like 40 minutes later you like one person remembers it yeah yeah so now we will just sit there oh what was that guy that was in mad max Tom Hardy okay Thomas Hardy Or Timothy Hardy

Jesus Timothy and Thomas are two different names aren't they Speaking of Man Max Have you seen the trailer for Virioosa The new trailer Yeah

I did There are a few trailers going around right now Yeah Don't know how I feel Yeah It's not I was like I know a lot of people

are excited about Chris Hemsworth but that's one of the more worrying parts to me Yeah I think he seems to have embraced the I want to see him as a villain I think that's different for him I want to see him be like evil and mad As the title suggests

I want him to be gross as well Yeah he needs to be gross He's got like the prosthetics The big nose and stuff And all the crazy visual design I just yeah I haven't seen I didn't see Miller's genie movie

did you like that I did it was weird um weird's good and how was it with the like visual stylings was he doing like the stylistic

speed up slow down um saturated images saturated yeah um not so much of the like the flamboyance in in motion I guess because

the plot of the movie is like this woman meets a genie and then he tells her stories of the last people through history that have met the genie so most of it's based like thousands of years ago

it's all like historic places but the visual style is really awesome I love his, like, dream-like, cartoon-y, um, vibes. A lot of cartoon-y turn. And, like, yeah, speeding things up, putting the sound effects in. It's like super maximalist and, like, crazy cartoonish is a good way of putting it.

Yeah, mega-cartoonish, because, like, I'm trying to contextualize my expectations for the film because, like, Mab Max Fury Road has a bunch of CG. And, like... And you can tell. yeah big time but it's so vibrant and extreme that you expressive yeah you fall into it like it he's not he's not portraying reality no he's portraying an exaggeration like a cartoon so if there's some cool cars like when i saw um hemsworth on the chariot at the bike yeah yeah that's pretty cool that's that's kind of fucking

fucking fire and like it Fury Road that all these vehicles were made yeah and if that's the case again and you can feel that in the filmmaking then like I'm gonna eat that shit up because yeah it's still it's still George Miller

he wrote and directed it out of the what four Mad Max movies he's done this will be the fifth um yeah most are good so yeah

Did you ever watch Mad Max? I still haven't seen Thunderdome. I've seen One and two. I haven't seen Thunderdome though. Yeah, Thunderdome, it's not as bad as you would expect. Yeah, I think the only Thunderdome thing I've seen is the nostalgia critic video on it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I watched that.

His Fury Raid video, fuck me. Oh, the classic. Yeah. That was the era of NC we don't talk about no more. No. I think he got the feedback from that. He's reeled it way back. from that stuff

yeah interesting idea admirable the work ambitious yeah ambitious is a good by putting it

but ambition doesn't always pay off um yeah kind of uh phantom

guy vibes you know phantom guy vibes yeah Star Wars the Phantom guy oh well

seeing as you mentioned it and we just said the furios the thing the other big trailer right now is I guess the new new new new new new new new new low point for star wars right this new one somehow like Kathleen Kennedy she's like been digging like a mole and it's like we found a new a new depth we can we can bury this trailer came out for this show

another dis another Disney plus show Star Wars the acolyte uh It's set like a hundred years before the Phantom Menace. And there's like loads of cosplayers like in in the forest and they all go So it's gonna be sick. It's perhaps the first one which is statistically getting destroyed. It's got like 400k dislikes to 200k likes or something which is like I feel like it's kind of a big deal. because I don't think that's happened

even with like Rise of Skywalker or like anything like that even The Last Jedi like Yeah The response has not been quite like that And it's like Yeah people are pretty done Especially with Dune

Being as successful as it is And like having this like It's like well directed It's memorable It's got the cast people like Charac people like It's kind of like Bye bye

that's what you get that's what you get what do you expect's gonna fuck about find out uh huh yeah but like to them it doesn't even matter you want to know why money that they originally bought the license for

they've made back and then some so like it's all green in their books I don't care yeah I guess they've already diluted the brand to such should agree like yeah like you choose you choose that direction that's what's gonna happen you're gonna dilute it's the only thing they know how to do aren't disney kind of fuck they uh yeah they've

kind of the whole like 2020 COVID period really shifted their business in a way that is like really screwing them now they went in so their approach to Disney plus has really screwed them like their films have like no value now like people they've conditioned their fan base to wait for it to be put on Disney Plus and now they're like upset that they've done that. Right, yeah. What do you mean the new Disney Wish movies? No one's

gone to see it and it's made no money? Well, it's ridiculous to ask people to pay a monthly subscription for a product and then sell them the product on top of it. Yeah, yeah. Well, they stopped doing that.

But that was their strap during COVID. and they lost like a big lawsuit with Scarlett Johansson and all this over Black Widow all this nonsense yeah so yeah no sympathy none

well yeah absolutely no fog them they've they've fugged the the cinema I don't know about and all season two though yeah when that shit comes out I'm going to be you yeah

I'll learn Subscribe from Disney Plus after that comes up. Mm-hmm. Or just unsubscribe mine, but now I'm watching it in mine. Yeah, shit, actually. Good point. Yeah, it's too much.

They do go to The Simpsons, though. And family guy in the UK. Our version of Disney Plus way better than the American one. The American one sucks. Do they not a family go? No. No, because we get, like, star

and, like, all these random things that are, like, a different subscriptions in America. So it's like... It was just Disney stuff on it I wouldn't Get it Like I watch like the Nat Geo stuff I watch yeah

A bunch of the star stuff I watch finding Nemo Shoguns on there Finding Nemo Finding Nimo I've never Doug spin off I refuse to watch Finding Dory

It's pretty shit You should go straight to Elemental But Oscar nominated Elemental Was it Oscar nominated? Yeah For Best animated feature

Really? Yeah Shit look lame from day one. It's even worse when you watch it. Really? Right? It's like the worst concept film ever.

Yeah. The concept sucks. Yeah. What if Adam was, whereas that used to be what was like the whole appeal of them where it's like, that's a cool concept.

I want to see that. I want to see a car with a mouth. I want to see the Fantastic Four. But I'm right. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's cool when you have a cloud

with grass growing out of his head on the metro and then there's fire and water fall in love, but water's always crying because he's made out of water and fire's a bit angry because she's a bit fiery. Don't you want to watch it? It sounds like it's written by a child. But that can be kind of charming if it kind of comes across like whimsical and childlike.

Have you heard of, um, oh, what's it called? It's called like Axe Cop or something. Yeah, that was from a while ago, right? Yeah. That's a, uh, uh, Nick Offen. and yeah and like the thing is that it was a kid and his much older brother like writing oh i didn't know that that's funny yeah so that's that's why it has that like genuine feeling yeah of uh just like a kid being like yeah and then he's like and then and yeah oh that's

cute that that's funny yeah and i i kind of want to watch it because it looks genuinely funny um but yeah fuck Disney I just I guess it really bugs me and I mentioned this on so Donica's fairly regularly just like this shift to everything being on streaming now like I don't know what the definition of success is anymore

like it used to be just simple like box office and then like how many how many DVDs or Blu-rays you saw but now all the metrics are all hidden and what so what the engagement It's more like YouTube now, where it's like, hours watched must be the valuable metric they're looking at. That's what has value now. And it's completely flipped itself on its head where it used to be films were actually incentivized to be shorter so you could play it more times in a day at a movie theater. And now it's like films are like three and a half hours long because you get more watch time on streaming sites.

And you can release like the Zach Snyder extended versions and more content. content is like more to sit through yeah the only thing I I wish it was the case that the the shit things on like Netflix and Amazon Prime and stuff I wish I wish the model was like we have those so that we can fund good things like Mind Hunter I think like the day Mind Hunter was canceled it was like okay Netflix has no value because the one like the one incredibly good show that they had was cancelled so not enough people were watching it because the thing is um mind hunter required loads of research hard to make loads of talented people on it expensive director like david fincher um and not that many people watched it yeah then big mouth comes out that jeffrey dama show comes out yeah everyone watches it's like well why would why would why would well yeah yeah like you you could probably make like a hundred different true crime easy to make documentaries for the resources and time it would take to make another mind under suits and so of course

they're not going to do it because they need engagement i almost wish like they they had like view counts and stuff on these shows yeah because it's like what at least youtube is quite transparent with yeah mm-hmm because if you choose to hide it then there's normally only one reason for that. If you're hiding your metrics, it's like, that'll hurt you in the algorithm and whatnot, but... Yeah. I don't like it. It's all hidden. And how you're supposed to, like, analyze it?

Yeah. If there's no metrics anymore. Yeah. Oh, well. The world's coming to an end soon, anyway. Yeah, next week I heard. Well, there's that big comet that's going to, like, go between... earth and the moon oh really yeah

and um if if it gets affected in a certain way in like another 30 years it will come back around they'll fucking kill us all nice so um that's one that I don't I feel like we could sort that

right don't they do tests like on that to see like they are working on like systems to like attach like propulsion systems to yeah well the one uh Neil de Gras Tyson was talking about was like you send a satellite out to match its orbit yeah or match its velocity or whatever and the gravity of the satellite like it wants to be pulled towards the

comet or both of them towards each other but the the satellite moves away so they're pulled to each other but it's moving away so then it changes the trajectory yeah pretty I feel like it's almost like watchman. Maybe that's what we need. We need something like... A united. All the scientists of the world have got to work together

to stop this big impending doom. A black hole is heading straight for us. Yeah. If it's coming and everyone's just like there are probably immigrants on that.

Then we'd act real quick. It's that alien immigrants. Yeah, xenophobes unite together. Yeah, space is crazy. Yeah. What do you think the point of life is?

To find some kind of meaning. But that meaning can be multifaceted. So you think the meaning is to find meaning? But your meaning is dependent on you as an individual. One person might find meaning through a career. One person might find a career through family. One person might find a meaning. Meaning, sorry, through their hobby or learning something.

There's many different avenues to find meaning. Through community, through church, through anything. What's the meaning before that? The meaning before that. Yeah, like before your life existed. Oh, there is no. So you're a nihilist? Mm-mm.

what meaning is there when you have no if you're not part of it you know um to be cool how can you be cool if you haven't been born no i mean like just like the fact that like the universe exists is pretty sick yeah you know and the whole like the goldilocks zone or whatever. Yeah, yeah. We've got like the Goldie locks of Goldie locks and it's still a fucking shit-oh. I do, yeah, there is, there is some kind of like poetry to being this one ball of life with this like crazy complex ecosystem that's just like stranded. Everything around it is desolate and there's just darkness and blackness every way you look, every other direction you look. Yeah. But also,

Also lots of light. Oh. The dark and the light reminds me of a certain video game that I sort of want to play. I guess we'll see it after these messages. Yeah. Want a dick on a shirt? Check the description below. Yeah.

I can't believe you just said what you said. I just heard so many things. I actually can't believe you just. said what you said. Pretty funny, huh? That's too hot for work. That's too fire. That's too hot for jar.

That's too fire. That's filtered. That you need to go on to the unfiltered podcast. Do you think we're filtered? Never. Are we controlled by anti-free speech referendums? By the biggies. By the excommunicados?

Well, you know what, bro? Sometimes, if I'm being honest, sometimes you've got to look up to look down. Sometimes you've got to look left to look right. They do say three lefts make a right. Yeah. I never thought about that until right now, but you know what? I think you're right. When you're going too far, go a bit further.

But never. Never. Look down to look up. Hmm. Do you hear me on that one? Yeah, you see now that I've heard it in words Hmm Context

Context is important Being plumpy is important I'm feeling plumpy I'm trying to get plumpy Hold up When you say plumpy what do you mean Hold up What do you mean?

so let's say let's say you're shooting for the moon right shoot for the moon shoot at the moon shoot for the moon even if you miss you're going to land among the stars so you're saying look up to look down never the other way never the other way I guess this is the part of the The podcast where we answer questions from the jailmedia community over on the subreddit, over at that suggestion thread like gamers do, like magicians do, like politicians do probably.

Politicians more than anyone. More than anyone. Yeah. Conspiracy theorists. Anti-conspiracy theorists. Anti-anti-conspiracy theorists. Conspiracy theorists that think they aren't conspiracies. Sea theorists.

Beekeepers. Wasp keepers. Hornet keepers. Ant farmers. What are them plants that eat bugs? Venus. Venus flytrap farmers. See, why are they called Venus flytraps?

Sort of a reference to the god of Venus. Who is... Venei. Venus is the god of... Wine. No, Venus is the god of... is the god of... Poonus!

No, the opposite. Foo-foo-foo. What devenous fly-traps look like? Oh! Well, uh... Yeah, we normally answer questions from the subreddit. Like this bad boy. Eggie slang.

Eggie slang. Eggie slang. Imagine you wake up one morning and discover that you've somehow suddenly developed large breasts upon your chest. A genie appears before you and gives you a choice to be made then and there. Would you want him to snap his fingers and instantly return your chest to normal? Or would you want to keep the breasts?

What would you choose and why? I'll slash draw media before you answer, replied to that saying. Could I have some time to test out the breasts first? See if they hurt my back, etc.? I'd welcome the genie along with me for the testing. They replied, I think at most you can have about 24,000. You can have about 24 hours to test drive them.

Any more than that, I think it kind of defeats the purpose of the conundrum. You must choose between never knowing what would be like to walk the breasted life or being stuck with breasts until you get them surgically removed. Do they produce milk? I'm going to assume yes. At all times. Always lactating. You know what, if that improves it for you somehow, you're allowed to include that.

but it's not locked in here's the thing right because hypothetically a breast milk producing person right

yes they can't really drink that milk to survive no that seems like a snake eating its own tail situation yeah exactly like it's an infinite loop

it doesn't it doesn't work but these aren't just any ordinary breasts what's different about them magic magic tars well my answer is

the fact did they say you have to get surgery to have them removed in which case I'm just keeping them really you know what I'm just keeping them I don't have surgery if it's just like a flick and they're gone

maybe I'd do that because I joked with you earlier in the kitchen I was like I'm finally building some breast that I like you know some man breast because men can have like

like some dudes that like really get jacked they have tits straight up yeah like double ds like we're talking big yeah um yeah

so I guess I'd refuse them in the if I regretted my decision I just have to start doing extra chest flows right you know just really pump that build that bad boy up yeah

maybe stop exercising everything else so the proportions I was about to say that like hypothetically if you only every time in the gym only did chest yeah and what happened there and all other like you

you limit the use of all of the muscles like you sit down as much as possible you want them to atrophy yeah like eat with your just your face you know so you'll have quite a strong neck and chest

that's it though yeah so you're more like a like a worm in a way you know a worm with tits oh that would be a good title if it was allowed

hmm worm with tits what about a worm with tatters worm with tots a worm with baps there are some foul slang terms for body parts yeah and they're all British they're all British they're all foul and

it's all about the willie it's all about the footh you know yeah keep it simple keep it simple but keep it foul yeah keep it footh footh's too friendly keep it cunt Keep it mingin. I've got to stop saying the C word

because it's the one word that you have to take out on YouTube because you'll get flagged for the C word. Really? Well, yeah, but people, it's not like Australia in the UK everywhere, bro. Some people get a little bit hurt by that word.

Why? It's their children. They're fucking cunts. Exactly. I think it goes to show how afraid people are of of Foof. Of Foof.

I think that's exactly right. Yeah. Too much for your Fulf. in this world. Foofe fear. Do not fear the footh. Don't fear the footh. Bracket blue, don't fear the footh.

Fear the willy. Yeah. The jar imp has this to say. Hey up, babies. Can Jim do his best impression of the Premier League Dartsman saying, 180? I think he's got the perfect voice for it. also do you guys follow the darts or any obscure sport that's particularly popular in the UK

keep fighting the good farming as a baba did you hear about the the legendary darts player which one the 16 year old no what recently yeah the 16 year old um little dude just a little legend like was just beating everyone at darts oh he's like an android yeah he's he's a prodigy He's a dart prodigy And it's kind of awesome You know That is kind of awesome Because it's like a really random like

Why is a 16 year old playing darts Like I say it's so heavily With like pubs and bars or whatever Yeah Like overweight middle age man Yeah Because that's who it's for Yeah

Because it's not the hardest game Like anyone could play it Yeah Pretty much Yeah You need at least one arm Yeah That's

That's And even then need. Do you even need all your fingers? You need at least two. Two, yeah. Minimum. Two minimum. Three ideal. Yeah. Although it's like, it's one of those games that you don't really appreciate to you played it.

It's kind of how I feel about golf. Well, like, you look at it and it's like, it has a reputation, you know? Yeah, a bit boring. The be a belly boring pub game. Yeah. That's. The, the D.T. president

um you know old man exactly yeah but I'd never really played that's before until

well it was a few months ago right we were in we were in Bristol yeah December that's right we went to a big bar so it's kind of like a micro brewery but giant a giant micro brewery

a mega brewery it was like four stories or whatever but on the on the top floor we had a dartboard and we had a little game four of us or so five of us

and something clicked was just did you only like it because you won no it was it was being able to consistently get the dart on the board

and kind of get it like where I wanted it that was the feedback loop kind of like what I was saying about golf where like that has a reputation of the upper middle class if not higher you know

rich old dudes walking around the actual game the like mindset like if anyone's familiar with meditation or like this kind of thing it is very similar like the the link

you've got to have of like your body the exact angles you're doing like this exact wind up and all this stuff you're thinking about so I can possible to think about anything else so I quite like it from that perspective yeah mind clearer like I'm here i'm doing this i i can't do anything else yeah which is a good which is a good uh quality of most sport to be honest it's like yeah i mean even even even going to the gym is that for me

but they asked me to do the impression so um 180 i guess i never that's one of those like osmosis things where like you know it but you don't know yeah i didn't even know it was from i didn't until until this question like i swear like his primary school Like, people on the playground would just go, 180. Yeah. It's like, why? Yeah. I guess we found out today.

We finally got the payoff. Yeah. To all that darts buildup. Any other obscure sports you care about? Is badminton obscure? Dude, I love badminton. Babminton's awesome. Yeah.

That's another, like, feedback you get. When you smack that badminton, it's got that perfect art. Yeah. I love the speed of it as well, because when you smash, smack it, it goes really fast and then like suddenly slows down. Yeah, yeah. And then it's quite, I think, an easy game. But then the, it, it turns into more like mind games.

Yeah. Where you're like going like, you're going to whack it and then you slow down and tap. Yeah, yeah, just do the tiny tap. That's the most like humiliating thing, the tiny tap. Yeah. Yeah. But then when someone tiny taps and you sprint to the front and then like smack it up. Well done.

Now, here is your reward. Thank you.
