Good afternoon, morning, evening or night. Ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to JARCAST 232. Is it right? No. I did it. Yeah. No. I changed that.

232. We got it. Hey. No, it's correct. It is correct. It is correct. It is correct. It is so 232.

I'm going to host Alex, joined as always by SmartMort himself, James. Yeah? Yeah, SmartMort himself. I'm and Beast over there. How are you doing? Yeah. Mm-hmm. Smart Mort.

Maybe you should just all do that. Yeah. Smart Mort. Welcome to the Smart Mort part of the show where we thank the patrons who make the audio version of the show possible. And you get your names read out if you're a sandy tier above in the first week of each month. I guess in terms of housekeeping and cleaning up and all this sort of nonsense. The comment barrel part of the show. Yeah, but even just quickly before you go into that, is there anything on the Patreon that's going?

We've got the E3 video because we'll be talking about that a little bit in this episode. But we've detached the Halo conversation because we had more to talk about. feeling this episode would otherwise be just a halo podcast so and it was probably it was probably the biggest thing from e3 anyway to actually talk about so yeah one of them other stuff we'll get on to in a minute but first yeah housekeeping um where we address some comments and feedback from the last episode Alex is going to get us going um regarding our conversation about football because uh footies on at the moment people are hyped here in the UK especially listening to the football discussion was fascinating to me as a huge

fan of the sport. On Jamie's point about preferring fiction, I think football can excel in a great storyline. I would say my favourite part of watching football is not the actual 90 minutes played, but the debates, discussions, narrative, and tension surrounding a match. Football has also given me some of my greatest

friendships, just offering my perspective and I completely understand those who don't care for it. See, I understand that when it's like the really big matches, like... Yeah, I can understand that. Just not loving, it's like, Swindon Town versus It's Switch Like

It's never going to be the same though As a good story, is it? You know? Um Like the story, like Yeah, it's a totally valid thing To get from watching the sport But you know, it's not

Um It's not exactly the last Jedi, is it? Uh, Jack has one for us The funniest bit of the Uh slash FNAF debacle This is referring to JAR Media overtaking the

FNAF subreddit somehow I guess one of the mods just is a jarling or somehow managed to snag it but yeah it's actually reverted to a real FNAF subreddit and there are still

Jarlings stowed away there so whenever there's a post about who's your favorite animatronic half the comments just say James or something to that effect so check out R slash Fnaf if you want a wicked good time. Volt Tech AU has one regarding these strategy games

James is into at the moment. If the grand strap boys want to get into the paradox ones, I suggest they start with Hearts of Iron 4. James' comments on the unit management reminded me how meticulous that other games in the franchise can be because their main focus is on other mechanics, whereas Hearts of Iron is mainly about warfare. I know it's the easiest to learn,

but none of the Paradox games are especially user-friendly when you're first starting out. The boys got it right when they said Civ is the best starting point for these games. I started out with Civ 5 and then worked through some of the total war games and then on to Paradox. Also your super scary ghost place talk scared me and I'm on the little opposite side of the world. Stay strong cringes. I've looked into the Paradox games because they do like Europa Universalis. Yeah. And they do a few others. I've looked into them but it's just because I'm in total war at the moment that I need to get through those and then down the line.

But yeah, we both started, I started a Siv 5, you started a Siv 6. They're just the best way to get into these type of games. Shledit left one in regards to Jim and I having a little section talking about Bloodborn. I really hope Jim and Alex play through Bloodborn, including DLC someday, because I really do think they're mistaken. It's way tighter than Dark Souls 1 and actually harder IMO if you include DLC. level design is almost as good in the boss quality is much higher. I can see how you prefer Sekro as it's much more refined

but I do prefer Bloodbourne. It's also has the best story and lore IMO, the backbone of Lovecraft does a lot for it. I would play it if it was on something that wasn't the PS4. If I could just play it 60 frames on something

I would happily play that game. Yeah that one fact makes the game less tight yeah it just feels worse it's the worst feeling from soft game yeah I did try dark bloodborn I actually did try it when I when I have the PS4 I tried it for bit yeah it didn't feel good the lovecraftian aesthetic though is really good in that game yeah yeah all story stuff sick mm-hmm yeah I would have finished it

if I just had access to it on hardware I didn't just like yeah yeah our slash jar media left one in response to jim saying that you can't go too far with certain tastes unless it's heat i'd argue saltiness is even harsher a taste when used excessively as someone who's accidentally drank a gulp of water from the dead sea it fucking sucks your entire face feels like it's morphing into ash from the dryness and bottled water literally tastes sweet in comparison the saltiness lasts even longer than something incredibly spicy in my experience there are remedies for extreme spice but extreme saltiness is another beast entirely. Beast. How did this person accidentally drink from the Dead Sea? Maybe they're on a paddle and they just... I've accidentally had a mouthful of sea water and, like, swallowed it. Like, if you're sat, like, in the ocean a bit...

Yeah, no, yeah. And a wave just catches you and just launches down your throat. It's just because this is, like, specifically to the Dead Sea where it's just... Yeah, I've got loads of little kid memories of being in the sea and just a wave. and just a wave flipping you upside down and dunking you under the ocean. Yeah, that's why I don't go near the sea. That was awesome.

Totally right. Salt is fucked up. Like, salt's one of the only things I don't add to my food ever. Because there's going to be salt in the food anyway. I don't get when people, like, absolutely cover it with salt after they've made it. Yeah, it depends on the food to me. Because stuff like chips and fries and stuff. See, I prefer my chips and fries with no salt.

No salt at all. Yeah. like McDonald's fries You're right You're just straight up lying No no no no no I'm not like I will still eat it But I'm saying my preference is like no salt

You go to McDonald's and sometimes you get that The shit the shit batch where they don't salt it It's like straight out of the fry into the packs That's your favourite Yeah That's what you want Because of the salt That's so fucked up

Because all it is then is like Tasteless potato Yeah They have their like special potatoes Made to be tasteless and perfect So they can just cover it in salt And all you're eating is carbly salt But I'm just not the biggest fan of salt

I don't really add it on anything Even when I make meals I won't ever add it What did I mean though when I said You can't go too far with Tastes other than spice Oh I didn't know bro Thinking about that now that's just like

So stupid Well maybe it was taken slightly out of I don't know whatever HJ Day 10 Has our pen ultimate one for this section Hello, Jarman. I've got some Swindon-based trivia for you. After Alex spoke about Talking Heads at the beginning of the last episode, I thought I'd ask if any of you heard of the band XTC, Ecstasy.

They started around the same time as Talking Heads and had a similar style musically, but they were from Swindon. The funny thing is, though the lead singer blames being from Swindon for the reason they didn't sell well. He once said, Exstasy were clever and came from Swindon, so therefore we were crap. and their label told them to change their accents and deny their Swindon origins. I find it funny how Swindon was such a shithole that it may have stopped this band from reaching a bigger audience. They even have a song called English Roundabout, which was inspired by the infamous Magic Roundabout.

Truly a wonder worthy of a song. I hope you've enjoyed this little piece of Swindon history. Definitely check out their album drums and wires if you're interested in them. Keep up the good workboys. I have heard of them. Yeah, I've heard of that story before. I've heard one of their songs kind of recently, and someone told me, oh, they're from Swindon, you know, I kind of didn't believe them,

because it was on, like, MTV. Yeah. No, I think I know a couple of their songs. I'm not familiar with that album they're recommended, but... No. I'd be willing to listen if they're sort of similar style. But that's what Swindon does, though, you know? If, if you're born...

It makes you embarrassed to be from there. It's like a black hole. It just tarnishes. And everyone associated with it wants to just mask it away. Yeah. Finally then, I was like slamming the legend of Cora. You were. Season two last episode.

There were lots of comments about that. Actually, largely agreeing with me what I was saying about season two, but there were some people saying things like Matthew Edgehew says it sucks to hear that you didn't like Cora as much. I agree that the animation in season two has a huge downgrade, which is because they changed animation studios for the majority of episodes, but the original studio returns towards the end of the season, and it returns to its original visual quality. Season two is by far the worst of all Last Airbender and Chora seasons, but I'd really recommend you stick through it. Once you get to season three, the quality improves hugely. In my opinion, it's almost on par with The Last Airbender. Thanks mostly to the final two seasons villains. seasons three and four still have their own

self-contained plots unlike the last airbender's overarching hero's journey story but I think the final two seasons handle it much better than the first two and there are far more recurring plot threads between seasons three and four than there were seasons one to two sorry if this comment was a bit long and rambly keep up the good yogs pogg lads

yeah enough comments were left in this kind of style that is I think they've convinced me to really I can't decide whether to just skip season two because I was not liking what I saw a bit how far through it did you get I think I was three or four episodes 10

how many is it 10 episode seasons because in my mind it's why I have the 30 minute rule for like bad movies if there's nothing in that 30 minutes genuinely nothing like in no world

is it even going to be good yeah it kind of applies for when just not jelling with the story at all but do I stick through it because it gets good at some point or do I just skip to three and just see what I think I skip to three personally but there's like the completionist thing where it just feels so wrong

yeah yeah especially with a TV show I don't think I've ever like skip to season at the TV show yeah normally it just starts getting bad at some point or something I just stop Yeah, I don't know We'll see I'll continue at some point Topics

Before we go into this E3 one I want to just throw out What the intro on the video version Would have been While I was watching E3 in my living room Just chilling Just waiting to see Halo really See what they had in store

Really boring conference So I was like sat there like bored out my mind um and then all of a sudden this huge kerfuffle is boiling hot in the uk at the moment so the like back door was open fucking paisley i guess is my golden retriever is like a psycho and she accidentally or not has laid a trap for birds she's turned my garden into this like hell zone like jabba's palace like underneath it's like that but for seagulls because she chews on these, like, bones. There's, like, nothing in them.

It's just the bone part. She'd just chew on the raw bone, but she's, like, collected them in the circle in the garden. And just at this exact moment in the day, this damn seagull must have seen one of the bones from a certain angle and just swooped down into the garden trying to get it, not realizing there was, hey, a little corgi just waiting there, excited ready to go for it

started chasing it but then the the meat the actual bird killer it was foreshadowed months ago with her pigeon event she's upgraded to

sea goals sea goals now that's the big thing to take away from this because there was debate as to if she actually captured that pigeon

herself or if it just like happened to die I think this confirms it man yeah she definitely because Because, like, gun dogs, they're meant to go and retrieve a bird that's been shot. Not like charge a bird that's, like, just briefly landing and killing the thing. Yeah, she's definitely got high prey drive.

Yeah, without a doubt. But it was a full-on brawl because sea birds aren't, like, pathetic little pigeons. No. It was like... From a first-hand experience, huh? Yeah, this is, like, the MCU of Jarrett's, like, the characters. it's coming together. Yeah, the seagull from a few seasons ago.

Yeah. It's the same seagull. Yeah. It was trying to, yeah, get revenge in some way, but it got blasted by a couple dogs. I don't think it got hurt that, well, I don't know, what happened to it. It does. It does look like in the video that she, like, jabs it.

But that's the thing about God and Retrievers, though, is they're ridiculously gentle. But I don't know if the pro drive over. But she literally killed a pigeon, though. Like, surely, I don't think she was gentle. enter in that situation. But in the video, um, you can see she's kind of scared of the, the sharpness of that beak. Yeah, Peyton isn't going to put much of a fight up, you know.

Well, they were properly fighting it and the only way I managed to break the fight up was, um, I had to like, rip a headset off and like, stand up and be like, what the fuck say? No one's gonna believe me. Um, I had to go get like a scoop of dog food and was like, guys, this is way more interesting, right? Was it? Paisley was having like a which do I go for type thing for a bit that she eventually retreated in for the food so when you went out with the food was the seagull still around the corner they had it like pin like in the video yeah because at the end of the video it like goes around the corner and you don't see that's it yeah because just shortly after that was when I'd gotten up by then I was running around to

break it up whatever so the seagull flew away yeah yeah this isn't I didn't have to deal with the body this time. Yeah. So it couldn't have been that damaged if... Well, yeah, it was a big bird and... She wasn't like in it doing the, like, killer dog thing, you know, when it's in the mouth and they're shaking out, like... Yeah, yeah.

She's more cautious of it. But yeah, that was more exciting than the actual E3 I watched, if I'm being real. Yeah, E3. I didn't even watch it because... And I'm glad I didn't. It seemed that there was nothing of any interest that was actually... When saying that, there were a few things I noted down that I like kind of liked. Yeah, some things piqued my interest, but as a whole, it's made me wonder if, um...

Because from memory, every three is kind of like, you get excited and then you either get disappointed or you're just entertained through pure cringe. the whole time yeah yeah the cringe epicness balance yeah and the cringe is the cringe factors kind of gone yeah you needed like Mike's just cutting out randomly and people in the crowd awkwardly just like a random influencer they get on stage and they don't tell them what to say they yeah I think I'm getting the vibe now that E3 is kind of dying all do you I don't know why it's come back I don't know why they've even bothered to bring it back like they show you I'm not doing it in person.

Yeah, they showed last year that you can just do a stream and get the exact same shit across. And with most, more companies doing the own thing, their own independent, like, launch, direct day or something. Did you see how bad some of it went there?

Like, did you see any of the fucking gearbox stream? Did you see any? No, I didn't even. No. It was, it was actually so bad. Like, there's this section where Randy Pitchford is, like, he's on set of the borderlines movie, right? And he's like,

he's like going around like let's go find Kevin Hart everybody and it's like the fucking worse video um does he find Kevin Hart um I went off it before he got to him um yeah

he was like interviewing Eli Roth who's directing it and it's just so awkward and weird really yeah that movie is going to be trash that movie is going to be awful do you know I've got more hope for it than for free guy

Yeah No, but Jack Black is Clap Trap Is it? Yeah That's right Maybe they'll make him Nah, he's gonna be annoying

Yeah You can't make that character I'm not annoying Yeah totally But as far as the things Actually liked Um That was new

Actually I don't know if any of it was new To be honest Because like atomic heart It's been around for ages Hades has been out for ages Um Halo we've known about

The other two I Noted down was Somerville and Replaced One of them is I think the Inside Limbo team Yeah It really looked like it

Yeah it might not actually be them So I might be wrong on that But I can't keep track of all the different names Of the devs at a certain point They're so bloody many of them There was some stuff that I think Replaced was the one with them like um green goblin good evening spider-man you know what william defoe yeah willam defoe and a couple other

actors what type of game is it i don't know how i missed this did you not see that um i watched like the whole stream but really you missed that it was like really clearly the green goblin like i might have just taken my headset off for like a split second and yeah it was like a time loop game thing. It seems story-based or, I don't know, seems interesting. And then, yeah, Halo, I was pretty disappointed by, we will talk about that in the side video, which should actually be up by the time. This is out. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, but I was expecting something big, just one big thing. Yeah, I thought Bethesda were going to bring it a bit more. Yeah, for sure. It showed Starfield's thing.

I just remember there was one E3 where it sort of became a common thing where it's like, this thing is available right now. Yeah. So that's the stuff I normally get excited for. And like even Hades, I was expecting them to say. Well, the win would have been to do that with Halo flying. And you can download the beta now. Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, that's another thing I was anticipating the beta announcement. Yeah, all in all, it's just the same E3 feeling as ever, really. Yeah, I've not come away excited for anything, really. Yeah, the only thing that really I'm a lot more excited for now is Starfield. Yeah, I was a bit more like, oh, I'll give this game a chance, though. Yeah, with the announcement of them actually, like, updating their end. engine from Oblivion. It's like, oh, so they're actually trying then.

Well, no, you can take that different ways. Because it's either they're going to make a new engine or they're going to do like the 4-8-4, which is they're just going to, we make it look nicer. They've said it's like, I don't know what their engine's called, but it's called that engine too. I just hope. They said the trailer was supposed to be in-game engine, whatever.

that means is that dice or way of saying it or yeah it totally is but i feel like like the fallout 76 engine you could not stretch that engine to show you the stuff that it doesn't stuff yeah yeah see and yeah if what bethsda's always nailed is like exploration sort of stuff and if they can do that on like a planetary level with different planets and shit could be yeah but maybe that's too ambitious because the good

the thing that works with you know fall out um skym is the fact that at the time um people just said was too ambitious

like no but the it's you can't cram as much detail into when it's that big because they'll just be bow and lands because you have to

because you focus all of your attention I don't mean like like literal planets like you just mean on a much bigger yeah just different maps

so What really is just the Outer Worlds, the way the Outer Worlds did it. Loads of different maps and different locations. Yeah, but not shit. Outer Worlds was actually announced as well. Obviously, we've talked a lot about Outer World One and that it was like a proof of concept, really. Like, you can tell it didn't have the big bucks behind it. Yeah, which is weird for like a Microsoft own studio.

Yeah, but it wasn't though when they made that game. Yeah. It was Take Two, wasn't it? It became Microsoft own. Yeah. During the development of it. To see if not from the get-govers, when they're kind of laying all down. I still, yeah.

I mean, I can't comment on, like, the comment of the game, really. I didn't play it that long because the gameplay is so shit. The gameplay wasn't the best. But it's got, it had everything you wanted. It had all of that character choice and all the different, like, character-based stuff you could do. And it had the Bethesda charm. And it's not Bethesda, the new Obsidian charm. And it's just if they can take that and actually make.

it big with a lot more everything if they can make the gameplay good or just for just never force you to do it that's my thing with uh like obsidian games like if the focus is story and shit find a way to make the gameplay about that instead of the the awful gameplay no but they've always done that there's those of situations in new vagus when you can just talk your way out just you don't have to get in fights you just have to talk yeah but there's also just like all the shit where you're walking around like shooting animals in outer worlds that's the problem of it

yeah but if they can make that stuff feel really good then the game would easily be amazing but yeah I've got more faith in that than any other game that was announced at the C-3 really like Rainbow 6 extraction and the Avatar the Avatar

Ubisoft just whipping out the big guns Ubisoft man Far cry six five six six six no interest looks no awful I hate the way they the like the idea is you're like a rebel

overthrowing a fascist dictator and then it's like chicken oh the epic chicken yeah yeah you get an epic chicken that fights people alongside you and they did the same thing in five with like the bear but yeah yeah it's like because like YouTube thumbnails for like

far cry three with the funny animal crazy yeah and it's just been there no yeah it's like the idea of like a overtaken like a really extreme white ring government as a as a rebel like by yourself is actually an interesting concept you can make that work in a really nice way just not when it's made by us Ubisoft has it always just been what far cry like the set up it's like a bad guy an oppressive bad guy you've got to take down yeah the whole gimmick yeah honestly like Far Cry has I've written

Far Cry off since Far Cry 3 Like everyone since It's just been shit Maybe Blood Dragon That was alright That was Far Cry 3 pretty much But and then Farquy 2 is the best

Far Cry you can get That's the best experience I just hate the way They use Levity It's like they're afraid To make anything too serious Because they got

Gus Fring To be the bad guy And he's clearly Gonna Like Ubisoft's been bad for that though, they're like, they seem to be trying to get outvoted on Reddit front page type of shit, you know, with their games.

I get that from Gearbox a bit as well. Yeah, totally. What about Tendo? Yeah, Beth of the World 2. Like, what can we say? It's going to be great. It's going to be incredible. It's Beth of the World 2.

It's Nintendo. Yeah, it's just going to be... Yeah, it looks cool. I can't imagine it not just being ridiculously good when it comes up. Mm-hmm. it's probably going to make the exact same raves like the first one did Twitter is just going to be full of all these people

doing these wacky things with Yeah the only thing is I think They're reusing the same map But like adding more to it They would have redesigned it to like a certain extent Yeah but I just wonder if It won't have the same impact Because it's going to be the same formula

And once you repeat a formula It's not like Depends what tools they give you Yeah but I mean I mean, either way, their formula is good as fuck, so it's gonna be a good game. Mm-hmm. Was there anything else for that one? I didn't actually watch the Nintendo one and I just watched that Zelda trailer?

Metroid... Metroid... Dred? Yeah, Dread. It's like a 2D Metroid. If it gets good reviews, I'll buy it, but if it doesn't, then... Whatever, I don't really mind. I think I've read this, I mean, that...

Yeah, apparently the Metro games aren't even, like, really that big sellers. They just love within the industry, because they're so important for their design cloud. Nintendo did just like a bunch of ones I'm not familiar with, like Super Monkey, Bull, Cruise and Blast. There's a new Dragon Bull, Tony Hawk Pro Skater, Wario got a new game. Fatal Frame, like, not much, really. I think the consensus is that it was a good one. but I don't really care

about, yeah, I'm in the same boat about a lot of it so I just sort of skipped over it Like the thing I was hoping to come from and Nintendo stuff was Fire Emblem because it's been ages since three houses so it makes sense for a new one to be out

and there's been nothing on Fire Emblem for a while so that would have made my hype levels go 10 out 10 you know, better than GTA 5 hype levels you know incredible hype levels Boshit No like no It was only like a couple years ago

A couple years ago GTA 5 No the The houses The 17 houses I love three houses It was only like 10 years ago Yeah every

GTA Was 10 years ago Yeah No two years ago Three houses Yeah two years ago And I love fire emblem So I'm gonna be more excited

I always saw fire emblem It was pretty much annual Yeah it's every like three Two three years That's why I'm like Like, what the fuck, where's the emblem? The thing is, with Nintendo, they just do, like, a direct whenever they want to as well. Yeah, I think they've got one up coming here.

E3 for them is, like, even more pointless, because they have these regular updates, so... Do you know, it's actually one thing that when the next GCHA gets announced, I don't think I'm going to care all that much. I've kind of passed my, like, what stuff, A's? Like, Red Dead 2, loved Red Dead 1. By the time we got to Red Dead 2, I didn't even finish it, didn't even start it. just, I missed out on it.

And I think it's going to be the same with GtA 6. We'll see. Because at the end of the day, I'm probably not going to be able to get it anyway because, you know, scalpers are still like selling fucking PlayStation's and Xboxes at stupid prices. Yeah, maybe in 30 years when the next GTA comes out, the PlayStation 16 will be... Do you think PlayStation aren't even there?

Because, because Wachstar cutting the GTA-5 support for the Xbox 3-6, Do you think that is somewhat leading the way to the next one? Or do you think it's like they're trying to save money? They're trying to make more money from less outdoors. Probably more just maintaining that old version. It's just a ball lake. Yeah, like it's pointless now. The player base probably got to like a low enough point

where they were just like fucking... The same thing happened with Destiny when that was on 360 PS3. Yeah, and every game that has multiplayer on like the 360, they're all just going to be shutting down if they haven't already. Yeah, I think next year will be the good game, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I wouldn't ring. Yeah. I ain't got much hope in any games.

I just died just, I'm not up to date on games. I know Warhammer 3 is coming out and I'm gonna play that. Whee! Any other E3 beats before the mid-break? Not really, um, E3 kind of lame. E3 kind of out of date. E3 kind of... shit? E3 is good as they say?

No. No. No. Yes. Yeah. Boom, there you go. Thanks for watching this video. We'll catch you next time next year on the next E3 video. Boom.

D-da-da-da... Oh yeah. Battlefield 2042. We didn't mention that. Oh yeah, shit. Must have left an impression then. Yeah, whatever. Fucking Battlefield.

I've got more faith in it because they're like, there's no fucking campaign, there's no fucking battle whale shit. It's just focus on multiplayer, which is what it should be. Yeah, that is good. Yeah, but it's like, you know, will they actually make the game good?

Yeah, Battlefield 5 was such a shit game. Whatever. Also, another thing is like, Cod? What the fuck is Cod? What Cod are we getting? No, no information on Cod. World War II. Yeah. Who even gives a shit? If they combine it to the current generation of the war zone, I, I'm never going back to God, ever. Like, if they can fuck off with this stupid cross-integration. It's becoming your catchphrase I'm never going back to you. Yeah. And then you go back to you when the new thing comes out.

No, but no, you know, you know where I'm coming from, that wars, this cross-integration between multiple different games. Yeah, it doesn't work. It's shit. It doesn't work. It turns me off of the game. So if, you know, World War II Vanguard will be the same thing, and then they'll probably slap Modern Warfare 2 onto it with Modern Affairs 1,

Black Ops, Colesie World War II. It's like, I ain't got any interest in that. I'm not going to play it. Don't blame you. That's it. Like two games that don't mean shit anymore. I'll tell you what means shit. These messages.

Life can be a dick sometimes. So get your dick from out your hand. And don't be a dick, wear a dick. Dick the head t-shirts available now. Check the description below. Um, who wants to intro the question, but... Boo! Bo bo-b-b-b-b-bo.

Welcome back to the second. back to the second part of the jar media podcast where we head over to pet to what wed it and answer some questions yeah like this one from uh brenden ardy who's going to start this off in episode 19 of the corncast a question was asked regarding which one of the jarcast thumbnails would you apply as a tattoo it's got me wondering if you were to have a child or pet and could only name them after the title of an episode which title would you pick? I find these questions so ridiculous

because I have no fucking memory of any of the titles. None of them. I think I'd just call my child normal. Fawkes eight. You took it right from my mouth. Yeah. Which, how long is it going to take the Jaldings

to figure out the secret surprise?

Maybe. I don't know. Corncast follower has one. Hello jar mediators. I just wanted to thank James for his openness and discussions on porn. The way he's talked about it since all the way back around episode 150 has helped me realize that I had a horrible addiction to it. My perspective has shifted a lot since. I'm happy to report that I've gotten over it for the most part and feel a lot healthier now, both mentally and physically.

Thank you, James. P.S. I have a crush on Jamie, so I appreciate a hello dare from him. Leave me alone. yeah no but that's it's good it's good that talking about it makes people realize how you know their consumption of it and how it is bad and can be bad what if it makes you happy though yeah corncast follower no doesn't make you happy food makes you happy so delete your porn hub follower in your yeah buy some freebase buy some cigarettes, buy some

what else is addictive? Coffee? Coffee? Coffee. Coffee is addicted. Free base cigarettes, coffee. That's the trio. And Coke. These three easy steps, the quit porn addiction now. And full fat Coke as well. Full fat Coke. And crispy creams pretty often as well.

Yeah, fast food. Yeah, just go to McDonald's every day. Especially on November in 2020. Yes, do that. The only dick Pisa, asks, on JARCast episode two, you talk about an old friend who Alex convinced that gullible meant that you liked animals. What other stories does Alex, or any of the other jar boys have of messing with people?

Every story related to that person, pretty much? The main one that I could remember doing, the mischievous antic. I remember enjoying the most was just the, like, screaming out the window of a car while it's driving. Yeah. I hate that now, though. I hate that now as well. People do it to me.

Fucking like fully grown men. Yeah, no, because I was a child doing this, like. And I was never shouting like rude words or like swear words. It was just going like, bleh, we're whatever.

Fucking juvenile. No, the worst thing was when we'd like do that out of the window to someone. And then the car would have to like stop it. It was like, like, lights. There's every crossing.

And they're like walking past, like looking. We're just like, get down low in the seat. On the subject of cars, you just reminded me of the event we witnessed yesterday. Oh, dude, we forgot. Oh, why did we not talk at the fucking hell? James, please. I don't know how to explain this. Jim, you were driving.

You described it. Well, so there's where we were driving matter. No, just to ship them. It's near Swindon. So you start to put in context It's in the Swindon It's like within the What's the black hole word

The event horizon of Swindon So we're just chilling Listen to some tunes We are chilling It was like just a peaceful night Really chill There was no traffic It was like 7pm

There's two cars in front of me What was the make of the The first was a black Nissan Duke And the one behind it was a blue Honda Civic FN2 The Honda Civic which I'm directly behind yes so we approach the roundabout that enters this place chippers so there's a it's there's you go straight or you go left yeah there's two exits you know so the the the person directly

in front of me is clearly fed up of the person directly in front of them going too slow so as as the person at the front starts going the correct way around the roundabout the person in the civic fucking puts their foot they gun it they gun it they gun it They'd gun it round the wrong side of the roundabout. In front of a van mine that was actually approaching the roundabout. Yeah, there's a van approaching the roundabout who, like, luckily this white van man was a sensible driver, the only one within the ring of Swindon. And because the... The Honda was going so fast he couldn't, like, cut it to get into the white lane?

If he had of cut round and properly exited the... Well, he couldn't properly exit the roundabout at that point, but... To get where he was going, he had to then mount the curb. He, I've never seen a car actually in-person on the road. Get as much air as that did. Yeah, it bounced high. It fucking smacked onto the curb and launched itself. Straight down.

Karma, the best showcase of karma I've ever seen. As soon as it smacked down, the Hazard's lights came on and it was slowing down. Once we're on the way back, we went there. and it was abandoned on the side of the road clearly fucked the car was fucked they fucking destroyed their car they ramped their car

basically over a roundabout just to get in front of one person and then fuck their car in the process it's a miracle they didn't cause like an awful accident how many weeks ago was I complaining about bad drivers in the chip in a area

yeah yeah I've I watched a dash cam videos I love watching dash cam videos I've never seen something so perfect as that where it's the shitty thing to do and then the exact karma in the exact same situation. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it was a perfect

example of why you don't drive like an absolute fucking ass where you go around the roundabout the correct way. Yeah. Not the opposite way. And when it happened, I just stopped at the roundabout. There was nothing coming but I was so thrown off

because in my mind, you just can't go the wrong way around a roundabout. Yeah, yeah. It does not... It's flowing like water. It's like a river just suddenly going in the wrong way, yeah. Yeah, so... And then I started driving and I missed the actual bounce bit, so I didn't see how much it...

I just started screaming because I knew what happened. I just instantly saw those hazards, and I was just screaming as loud as possible, like, laughing at his fucking cock. I can't believe we nearly forgot to mention that. I know. I just wish we had a dash cow. I know. Because that would have been the fucking best thing. If it was your car...

Maybe if it was my case, it was me, me on the other side of the last minute. But no, fuck me, it was incredible. I hope the police, like, saw him, like, well, the fucks is going on. Well, yeah, I hope the person who was perfectly in the right, just going around the roundabout normally stopped and, like, called the police. Because that person driving should never drive again. Yeah. Yeah, there's no reason for doing what they did.

No. You shouldn't be flying, like, up and down the curbs. and there was plenty of time before this to overtake that person there's a bunch of clear road there no the thing is that we were doing the speed limit we weren't doing like 30 and a 50 we weren't doing 40 and 50 we were just obeying the speed limit

there was no issue like I I always notice speed because I'm always like working all I'm head like we were fine no issue at all perfect driving conditions perfect speed everything so why the fuck would you do that he could have just gone left the person he was overtaken was going straight go left

but the empty roads that way yeah like people it's like the thing we've talked about before monkey brain in a fucking car they're just like they want to they want to show off as well they want to be they want to make that person know that they're overtaking them but all they accomplished was letting that person know they're the biggest fucking cock

in the world in their car yeah and it would be expensive to a place because they would have fucked possibly the oil pan the suspension, the tires, the wheels. Yeah, and is insurance even going to cover that if they actually know what happened? They take a look at it and because there won't be any physical damage of an impact,

how, if you go to insurance, it's going to be like, can you replace this or I've had this accident? And they look at it and they only see suspension and engine damage. Yeah, it's like, what did you do? Yeah, it'll be... Why did your car leave the ground? Yeah, like...

And it's like, I'm glad this person had a genuine walk of shame home. Yeah. Because their car was fucked and they had to walk. I hope it's still there when I'm ex and chippinxes. Yeah. Because I would,

I'd actually leave a note and be like, I saw what you did, you fucking cop. Just leave it on their screen. No, the sharing Anne Warrior has one for us.

An awesome, like, just classic who is who type question. And the kind of Harry Potter way, you know, with the stupid houses and everything.

It's one of these style questions but for um a relevant topic we've been talking about question for Alex but that other boys may answer to would you like to be a fire, water, earth or air bender oh

I know enough to also answer this and Jim does too I think I have to be fire I gotta be flamer dude I guess in that vein I must be ice so I'll be water yeah yeah What's James?

Air. Why? See, I, my instinct is Earth for James. Yeah. Why, Earth for me? You're quite earthen. No, because I imagine you, like, working on your car by, like, huge blocks of rock, like, coming out of the ground, and you're, like, lifting your car up so you can go underneath it.

Okay, yeah, that makes completely sense. That is the perfect... Fuck. Yeah. Just flame that's got. to come out, I'm afraid. Yeah. Yeah, water bending is lame until, like, the ice stuff comes in.

The ice and blood stuff. Yeah, well, I haven't seen the blood stuff, but, like, ice, ice is cool, fire is cool, water, lame. Do you think so? I think water bending's cool. I think they're all cool. Yeah, just, just breaking down the actual elements. Water is always the lamest. Yeah, it tastes fucking yummy.

Yeah, I love it. I love water. It's my favourite out of the elements in terms of consumption. You can also heal with it though in an avatar. It's like a healing thing. True. Heal my fucking exma. Yeah, maybe actually being a water bender would be sick.

Yeah, just have perfect skin. Bubba Ducky has a fucked up one. Hello, American James here from the past to debate. Felt really surreal hearing you guys talk about your friends. giving into a weird Catholic cult and in being out of your lives back when I first listened to that jar cast. But this week my friend died at the age of 22 from heart disease. How do you guys deal with unstoppable changes in your life? Are there any jar equivalence for you that have helped you get through a rough time?

I might end up using strange overtones for a tribute video to be played at the funeral, by the way. Thanks, Alex, reminded me about that masterpiece my friend probably loved. He was an intense talking heads fan. sorry to hear that bro that's fucking horrible um i don't think anyone any of us has ever lost anyone yeah not like that um but you got keep moving forward it's just the day by day take each day as it comes i guess you know i think it's it's hard to give advice because you know we've given advice things before with like mental health and all this by I think those situations are so, like,

a lot of people can't ever compend them until it happens. Until you've got that experience. Because with mental health, if you've got a certain amount of empathy, you can still support people when they're struggling. But with that is one of those things where I don't know what or what I can say about it because it's so, like, I kind of begin to understand it, you know. But it's just like it's the best I can do is to do, you know,

follow the normal advice like with mental health. is to just take it slow, you know, just try and focus on the same thing. And like, I guess, try and to not, like, mask anything you're actually feeling about it. Yeah, be open to people. Mm-hmm. Yeah, it's a fucked up thing. Yeah, it's like, even the concept of it fucks me up. If I think about you, like, if you dying, I'm like, yeah, this is, I can't, I can't even begin to, like, comprehend this.

It will just fuck me up, like, so bad. Well, seeing as we're already on fucked up topics, so George is not okay as one. Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you guys feel self-conscious about your body image or physical health often. That's because I've been trying to exercise by walking often, going for runs, doing circuits and all that stuff. But for some reason, I can never shake the thought I'm way less fit than everyone else. I'm guessing from social media and that sort of stuff I've gotten this really unrealistic, ideal body image in my head. And I constantly compare myself to it even if I'm having. actually pretty healthy.

Just eat some crap sometimes they'll have a good curse lads. Yeah, self-consciousness is like a hard thing to kick. It is almost like a habit. Yeah, I mean, the answer is yes, obviously. Yeah, it's yes. I've talked about it before where, like, in that early jar clip where my my legs are just like twigs. In that era, I thought I was, like, overweight.

Yeah, that's crazy. So it's always been something I've been trying to deal with. Yeah, it's been something that's been more on my mind recently because you guys know that I'm like, I say a lot about sugar content now, and it's like, you know, I'm trying to... I'm eating much healthier as I've ever been, like, you know, I always eat for, like, snacks and all that's out of my diet.

It's all, like, fruit, you know, vegetables and most meals and, you know, yogurts and whatnot. Like, I try to eat the best I can. I exercise constantly, but it's still, like, it's still in my head that the biggest thing, and I think the way body image works now, you know, with Instagram and whatnot, it's, like, normal things, like, you just, your stomach will have a certain amount of, like, just kind of roundness. It's, like, completely healthy the way your stomach is, your belly, but it's, like, because of Instagram, you've got these fucking actors that, like, paid. Yeah, they don't say in, like, the bio, like,

Sorry about my like water weight this morning Like I drank like there's a water today You know what I mean It's usually the opposite Like I didn't drink water for two days So I could take an awesome picture Films contribute to it as well Yeah

Films Especially now with like the way Marvel actors have to look at shit When Kamail Nijiani is like just Some side character getting shredded For like Yeah just Cut to ribbons And it's like with stuff like that

Is they can only do that because they're getting paid to they've got all the nutritionists I've said this before I've had arguments of people online because they'll putapy thing and it's like I know people who do like personal trainers and whatnot

and I've asked them and they've been like yeah you can't really do that at home and all these people have this idea that you can achieve this obscene like low body fat and pure muscular like body with like a home gym and whatnot where it's like no if you want that body you've got to dedicate yourself to it

that's your hobby no Xbox no junk food no nothing it's gym you know and that's not like when you're working nine to five every day you're not going to go home and do all these like 22 hour sessions like you if that's your thing then yeah like i've got i've got respect for anyone who's like super into fitness and that's their thing i you know i respect that but to put this onto like normal like the the fact that if you don't have that body it's like you know you're unhealthy and all of this when that's not the case at all you know it's like yeah because we were talking yesterday about how in the sort of late 90s

early 2000s, how different the beauty standards were and it was about like your Paris Hilton kind of super skinny thing it's always constantly changing the more it's considered

attractive at the time. I'd say it only changes as much for women than it does men. I think back in that time all the hotty men were thinner. less ribbed. They were like bodybuilders like Arnie and stuff,

but I don't think they were really sex symbols in the same way. It was like those of boy bands and stuff like that. Yeah, yeah. Whereas now it's sort of due to Marvel and stuff. People like Chris Hemsworth and Superman.

Oh, Henry Cavill. Well, I showed you a picture the other day of what Chris Hemsworth arms look like for the new Thor. and it's like just getting ridiculous some of this stuff it's the whole thing it fucks with me quite a lot

because like I'm quite skinny like I'm lanky I'm tall and I'm not bit like the thing is no matter with all body standards and all this everyone's different everyone has different genetics which means then instantly going to be a different type of body I am just thin and long I cannot help that you know

I've eat so I eat really help well and I exercise and it doesn't change anything this is just how I am and it's like why should I beat myself up because I'm not one of these fucking whipped dudes because I just can't gain that the way they can and I've tried you know I've done all these powders and protein stuff my body doesn't change and I still work out regularly I still do constant exercise and it just doesn't because that's the way my body am and I just bully myself the fact that I've got a little bit

of fat here and all that but I don't yeah that that thing of like looking at yourself in the mirror and like really analyzing shit and No one's looking at you under the microscope the way you do because they're too busy looking at themselves and feeling the exact same shit. And it's hard. I mean, it's near impossible. When you're, like, in a social situation,

like, you're, you behave to, like, fit in shit, you know? And so, yeah, for sure. People aren't going to look at you and, like, oh, he's wearing those fucking lame-ass socks. although he's wearing this shit and not that shit he looks a bit chubby today so people don't think like that

but in your head like people do because you're thinking it I've spoken to you before but it's like with this there's always influence for other people I've always been skinny

I grew up with my parents constantly pointing out that I'm skinny all the time for fucking 15 years of my life to like 18 actually all the time skinny skinny skinny Then I reach post like two years ago And I'm trying to put on weight

Because I lost fuck done And it's like oh I'm fat My same parents are now calling me fat And I'm only like 11 stone Like what the fuck does that do to a developing mind When it's like you're too skinny You're too fucking fat And then I was getting all the fat comments

And it was just like I'm now super healthy I've lost weight since then And then I'm getting comments from like friends That are like oh people are saying You're too top heavy Like how the fuck Can anyone fucking work

can have confidence in their body when you're getting all these different contrasting opinions all the time like one of the biggest things I had as a like a teenager was I never wear shorts because I was so paranoid about my legs being thin so I never wore shorts that's why I always wore like trackies and that's why I used to say to you like oh

I always wear trackies jeans there for chavs you know it all comes back to that like fear of like showing my body even now I can't really go to a beach because I'd be so paranoid about my body even I have no reason to no reason at all yeah because it would have been drilled into your head yeah and it's like the best thing you can do for someone's body

my parents still do this for my sister and they still do it at the time and I get fucking pissed but you never make you never ever make comments about someone else's body ever doesn't matter if they're your best friend though your family just don't let them just work the way out the way they will feel about the body what do you want to like compliment them say

yeah no as a negative don't say negative things about someone's body ever like even if even if what if someone like had like a bad haircut for example how'd you handle that all the time

no no but no that's different I think hair different because you can control what you do with your hair you can't control your body you know yeah so you can make comment like if you say my hair looks shit I'll just be like yeah I know because it it does you know but it's like

if you're saying like my body looks shit or I look fat or skinny that plays message of the mind more I think you know there are more yeah like more sensitive ways you could approach things like that yeah but it's like you know there's people out of they say shit to that

their partners and it's just like you're not really understanding of like any of that type of stuff with the way the brain works if you're making those comments I think you can all you can do everything positively instead of critique in someone's body

you can just like show an interest in them and what they're doing and you know if they're like going to gym you can tag along you can be like a positive reinforcement to change instead of being you know negative Because the change has to come from the individual. It's so well and good everyone around you.

It's just saying whatever they feel. If you can't take it on board in any constructive way, yeah. It just will drive you insane. Yeah, and we missed out on that huge chunk of social media when we were younger too. So I don't even know how insane it's scintin with that kind of shit. No, he's bad. It's really bad now I just feel sorry for especially young girls

With the way it is on Instagram It's like That shit's hard And it's gonna have consequences When they're much older The thing is as it shifts To more of Everyone's life being like

Shown online It It's not just about appearance It's about Look at this house This person Yeah Look at this car

Yeah It already is Yeah But I mean, like, it's... Because some people, they're genuinely, have dedicated their entire lives to the... Nothing but the image. But I feel like it needs to be more about, like, you and your own self and what you're looking for. Yeah.

Otherwise, it's fucking pointless. Never be satisfied. All these people that show themselves off is, like, just fucking stunning all the time and shit. It's, like, bullshit. Oh, yeah. It's so fakerable. more than ever and it's just going to keep going in that direction

where people just have like a 3D render of their ripped body then they can be fat for the rest of their life and they'll just hide in a hole and post pictures of them with their six pack in a Lamborghini yeah their digital implant

they'll be perfect yeah and it's all pointless it's just the thing is is just to enjoy the way you live just enjoy the way you live how you want to live you know don't worry about

what other people think ever even if it's hard to do you just have to enjoy yourself yeah and making like an effort to be healthy too yeah no we like you know what I wouldn't talk about like porn addiction if I wasn't trying to be like

to make people aware but it's just like living healthy is a very good thing it's like it means you enjoy life more because you've got you just you know your mind in a better place and you're physically in better place If you know you're doing that sort of stuff, I feel like, um, you, you just don't worry about it as much.

Mm-hmm. If you're actively, you know, not eating a packet of wine gums of an evening. Yeah, yeah. Then, yeah, I don't know. Maybe that's the opposite. Maybe if you're thinking about not eating something. Obama's gaming, one, two, three, four has this to say. Hajajar members

My brother and I were talking about the new battlefield And how disappointed that it was not so during the Vietnam War However, that got us both thinking Is it insensitive to depict a real war in a video game Many games have come out in the past few years They have depicted past wars And have actively encouraged the character To murder their opponents

Does that not glorify these events I had never thought of this before And I'm somewhat conflicted Any insight would be appreciated how do you feel I think I've always disagreed with you guys on this I've always felt weird about is it glorification

if you're playing a medieval real battle no then why is it it depends it depends what we're talking about because um

I specifically have a more of an issue with like the aesthetic of like modern military like our real lives being I don't know it's specifically call of duty in a call of duty audience that makes me feel weird yeah um but knowing it's the I just find it sad I guess that the biggest video game and the most successful video game is the one that celebrates the imagery of like atrocities that we commit and everything. Yeah, there's a disconnect, but, I mean, in that vein. So World War II is fine?

Well, here's the thing, though, because it's more complicated than that, it's deeper than that, because there are modern military games that do like that handle it with care. Specops. Like, Speck-ups here, we've mentioned Speck-ups a few times, but Speck-Ops is such a... An exception, I feel like... But thinking just multiplayer,

how do you send a message that war is bad while making it a war game? Yeah, I... And that's why I just don't play them. I don't enjoy existing in that. I get why people do. For me, I want to... I want to go into video games to escape

that kind of fucking real-world horror conflict shit, but I get it. Planes and cars and tanks are cool and stuff. Yeah, to me it's so disconnected, for the most part, with modern military stuff that, like, the stuff you're doing in the game is, it's just not realistic in any form. Oh, no. It's just pure fiction using the setting of, like, the technology we have now. And to me, that's it.

Because one thing I think Call of Duty should do is tell better stories. Because, like, modern warfare... Maybe that's what it is. The latest modern warfare has the most, like, like Western military jerk off. Like, yeah, they commit atrocities, yeah, but they have to. That's the message of modern warfare. And I think that's a fucking terrible one.

On the subject of this, you wear of the Fallujah game? Yeah, I am. That's like... Made by ex-Bungy people. I find that to be disgusting. um it's called again the six like six days in phleuja yeah and what is the game so phillusia was the the last stronghold of like saddam hussein loyalists in like the iraq war and that's where like the last part of the war was there and it was the american invasion of that to like and they

coincidentally if you look up the founding of ISIS it's in the same place it's like they're trying to depict it as like this whole like is it a single player game Yes, I think so, but it's like supposed to take this like really hard like American, like pro-American view on it and it's like you shouldn't even been there in the first place. Like I think that's the worst for it of this like American glorification of a war. They really shouldn't even have been in in the first place. Yeah, that adds another layer of complication to it though because then we're getting into the territory of like you're stopping stories being made or enjoyed. This is what I was going to say. I don't think a story shouldn't be told through video games just because, like, it's sensitive or whatever.

It's on the person making, or the people making the story to tell it in a way. But it's also clearly what people want. It's popular for a reason as what people want. Yeah. Yeah, it's... Humans have just always been fascinated with conflict. It's why video. video games, bar very few, are just about killing.

Mm-hmm. That's what you do in the majority of them. Yeah. Yeah. But this person mentioned that is it just not possible to make stories based on real conflicts now? The question was about Battlefield 2042, right? Well, they was disappointed it wasn't set in Vietnam. Yeah, Vietnam is tricky, especially, because of how blurry that.

conflict was not really blowy at all like I don't yeah that was just I've that's one I feel wrong about because it's like all of it it's always depict America as like you know

like the good guys you know well the best Vietnam movies do the opposite yeah but I don't find it's never been translated to games though I don't think I guess it's just an inherent contradiction is having the fun awesome bombastic gameplay around explosions and real guns

and stuff. Killing, you know. And yeah, you have to be using them. I mean, I guess what always just rings in my head is just thinking about how many young kids were like obsessed the Call of Duty to the degree where it seemed to be like they wanted to be soldiers and shit. Which is what a military's pry off. They're making everything to look like Call of Duty Cs and drops. Everything. All the advertising.

They're trying to do that. They're trying to get that audience. yeah i don't know man it's just not my thing i've never really been into that whole like war games stuff but i do i do think you should be able to tell whatever story you want like as long as it's genuine and true um you feel like you have something to say i guess that's what it is because with your like cods and stuff that i they're such products they're such like huge scale they do that that thing that

Ubisoft always says where it's like, oh, we don't have a political opinion on this. Which is bullshit because they're like editing out, um, they were editing out footage of out of cod trailers that was showing sensitive stuff from China, wasn't it? Yeah, and it's like, how is it not political when the first thing you do in modern warfare is, what is it, you phosphorous, you white phosphorus, like a group of, um, mm-hmm, middle-easterns. Mm-hmm. what modern warfare

the latest modern warfare when I have no the first mission you're in the forest no Russians are they Russians yeah okay well

even that's political using white phosphorus is political the story is about no it's not it's just used a smoke screen it's just a smoke screen okay yeah and like chemical weapons and shit Just the fact

They made the story based in a fictional Middle Eastern country But putting it in the Middle East It's political It's political Oh I didn't know it was like fictional It just looks like just straight up Yeah I'm pretty sure they made like a fictional

Yeah yeah Country for it I could be wrong It's this idea of glorifying That is super interesting Because We talk about like pink floyd the wall a lot um a big part of that movie that story is like satirizing like fascists like Nazis

but in real life that became for a small sector people like a new imagery a new thing to like a new identity to wrap themselves around like people find their thing and it doesn't necessarily it's not necessarily the fault of the original for just sort of commenting on no it's not but I think you can make bad commentary yeah for sure yeah I just don't trust them

and Activision and all of it yeah but this person is right a Vietnam battlefield game would be way better than 2042 see I don't think they can because there's already been

a battle for Vietnam and then there's been the Battle for Vietnam expansion of BC2 yeah why can't they they've made World War II games before they made five because I think

Battlefield to get back on the top it needs to be modern No, because they got back on top by making a World War I game And then they went off the top by making a World War II game A bad World War II game Yeah, so they need to make a good modern day one And then go back

It's not modern day though, it's future, the thing that everyone is over And It's just fucking boring It's so boring when Battlefield and Cod are doing the same thing yeah because that was such a cringe game at era when Battlefield 4 was coming out

Battlefield 3 sorry 3 yeah that's right yeah the two 3s yeah god it was even older than I was thinking Christ see I just prefer shooters like Apex now you can just do more with that because it's like it's not trying to be

modern and edgy it's just like silly robot boom yeah that's another thing a lot of the time like mechanics can be dragged down by the area you set it in like if you like Halo is so much more fun

than the Halo 3 is more fun than the latest modern warfare and the latest modern warfare is like vehicles and shit that multiple people can get in not fun shit shit is all it is yeah and like in the

the 50 calibre guns on the top of like a tank in battlefield four useless yeah because because it's a game people can just shoot you out the top of it and you don't get kills because you're on a tank you know the tank does all the stuff that is a fun part so it's like it's not designed to fit into a game it's just put into a game because it's in real life yeah interesting topic, though. You lose, like, balancing as well when you've got to have all these completely hot, accurate vehicles. And just make things all

fucking sci-fine, fucking creative. Things are better that way. Yeah, make sure it's fun. Yeah. That's the priority. Make games fun again. I mean, it's not the priority with every video game, but... There's that, yeah, I totally get it because there's a huge sect of gaming

that is all about, like, simulations and wanting to simulate things that you would never be able do and wanting to go into a simulation to like go into like a firing range or something and fire a real gun i like get i get that um yeah i think that at some point the further simulations go along there's going to have to be a like a line game simulations yeah yeah because like these like fishing simulators these farming simulators these truck simulators like they're like people joke about them but they're fucking huge yeah when they're photo realistic

mm-hmm yeah I like to me like no matter how extreme you make a racing simulator it's always going to be a game because at the end of the point all these professional racing drivers they all practice on waste simulators genuinely the act of a race is a game as well there inherently yes it's like that's always going to be a game to me even when it's like so extreme because it's still kind of casual it's just like I want to drive on a track boom then you can go do your stuff just not when you're killing midreastin leasing people in the simulator game like you know that's what I mean like that but can that also go too far because I recently played some of Resident Evil 5 yeah she's I remember a controversy from when that came out

because it's set in Africa um that that was it was like inherently racist because the zombies were like black people yeah and you're playing as like a white guy yeah which doesn't make sense but I didn't get the vibe that it was it was like trying to be racist or It just seemed like they were in Africa. Yeah, no, that is one of the most laughable, like, articles. Yeah, I think, from what I've seen, like, I think the, like, the visual style of the start of that game in New New York is really cool. Like, a whole game.

Yeah. But it's like, games journalism does just destroy any nuance from these kind of conversations. But what the implication is, because they wanted a story where the character of Chris, Redfield, it's like the end of his story and they were like, let's base it in Africa and then so the journalists would have preferred

it if they based it in Africa and had no black zombies which would be way weirder. Yeah, it would be just stupid so then the other option is make a new character and just like have a totally

different story or I guess don't base it in Africa but like I find that type of criticism silly when it's the game he punches a fucking bolder and fights this huge monster like his fucking Resident Evil, why does it matter? Yeah, that one is always stuck in our mind for just being like such a non-issue maybe there's something in the other part of the game I haven't played

but from the half of the game I play, nothing. There's nothing like even remotely racist about the game. It's Resident Evil. Yeah, it's like a bunch of nutter Japanese dev. Just like doing what they want Let's end on this one from Bill Hader gaming

And this is huge I've been saving this I was re-watching the Jalcast Featuring Shreddies The Incredible Fart Filtering Underware And though I thought I'd visit their website To see what the Noble brand was up to today To my astonishment

I found their most recent product The Car Banana It's a banana-shaped beanbag of sorts that is designed to sit between the buttocks not too deep and absorb gases before they escape your underwear. There's only one size, but supposedly you're still able to walk slash waddle around your busy day like usual,

just with a beanbag strapped to your cheeks like an overgrown tailbone. It's the natural evolution to shreddies, but can you imagine the raw power made available by combining it with yesterday's shreddy technology? My question is when can we expect a 45-minute dissertation on whether the car banana is as good as they say why is it called a car banana

because I guess the car because that was the gimmick with the Shreddy's Under the carbon lining thing yeah yeah because it looks like a banana it looks like a banana which I thought was fucking weird is it not supposed to be used in a car like a car journey because that's how I took it no you just whenever you need it

no a carbon banana car banana yeah carbon No, this is weird. This might actually be the future of human, like, evolution. Because, no, like, what's always been funny, butt cheeks? Butt cheeks are funny. This thing fills in the cheek. So it's just, like, one thing.

Don't you hate that it's, like, weird jar banana thing as well? Like, it's all, like, linked. Oh, yeah, we get yellow one. Well, they have a picture of banana as reference, I guess. A car banana? No, a real banana. Oh. Down there, Lord.

Oh, right. I don't think it'll work, personally. Well, 20 quid, and we can find out. 20 quid and we can find out. We can fart in it all day. Do you put it up your butt or? Yeah. No.

What if, um... That's the ultimate, like, that's the peak Shreddy's technology. Some, like, thing you actually pull up your butt that, like, just absorbs all your farts. So surely the shreddies aren't good anymore When you could just buy a car banana Well, it depends Ideally you'd have both Yeah

Or is this an underwear replacement So you don't need to wear underwear No but surely that is probably more comfortable Than shreddy's underwear With that huge layered I don't know It's like trading a nappy for A banana

Just in your ass There's only one thing we can do test it you do love bananas James I haven't had fun in a few days oh

I'm down shredies hit us up hit us up with your carb banana we'll test it boom I hated that yeah we can whip out the

the minion onesies and get our banana and they can sit down and I don't want to put things between my cheeks Yeah, that sounds uncomfortable Yeah Especially something the size of a banana

That's That's big Yeah How far do you push it into your cheek Like as far as it can go So then it's encompassed by the cheek Or is it just on the entrance Yeah, this is why I mean

It sounds uncomfortable Yeah, I'm not Surely the priority is just covering the sphincter but you've got to have like a vacuum between the the the carb banana and the cheek the anus and the um

the the lands between I got a shit on my car banana again yeah no that's what I was thinking because if you had a little bit of a shitty ass because underwear doesn't touch your asshole I've got a feeling the car banana

if you have a really shitty ass and you don't wipe it all properly or like gun is you're like gunggy in between but what happens when you need to go to a toilet and it goes straight in the toilet because it's in forget that it's there it comes in black and white

and no one buys the white one you know that that can't end badly not with my like fucking post like kebab fucking pooy ass I just find it funny because they're like designing this stuff with specific people in mind

you know that like suffer with these kind of things so yeah here's your solution fucking shove this banana between your legs and fucking let rip into it and the carbon will sort it out maybe there's like a fan out there that's like it's the lifesaver who knows

maybe I hope so I hope we helped at least one person who stinks of shit to not stink of shit anymore should I tweet on the jar media Twitter have you ever got shit on your car banana

just with a yes or no vote anyone that owns one has got shit on it you can't not get shown it whether it's visible or not it's that and it's waiting I'm surely it's washable right I don't know this is what the deep dive is for we need to just get one and like read the instructions

yeah I I have no hope in it Here we go I'll read the description New for 2020 The Car Banana is an innovative product Design with air travel in mind It offers you discrete protection

When you need it most The Car Banana can also be worn anywhere Like the car The Office or Public Transport Helping our customers Avoid potential embarrassment Cleaning security scanners The Car Bonara can be placed

In the hand luggage trays And worn once you've cleared security the banana shape of the product is designed to sit between the buttocks and absorb gases before they escape your underwear Wait can I just say one thing Have you ever smiled fart on an airplane I haven't because there's like

The scientific truth is that Like food tastes different because you don't have You can't smell as much of it Like you can't smell things in planes So like I've never smelled a fart So why does it matter for air travel But they're saying So you're on your way to the plane

you're going through the security so you've got to take it out you've got to take it out your ass put it in this thing walk through the gate yeah get scanned and then just chuck it back

yeah but what happens if you forget and you walk through and they detect it and then they detect something they're like oh no because if it's up your bum they're going to think it's drugs

so you're going to go for the full fucking strip search and it's like oh no it's a car banana you don't know how many times we hear that. The new slang's getting crazier than ever. But surely that's a good

rage of traffic drugs. Take out all the inside for a lot of cocaine. No, guys. It's just my car banana. I think that's it, guys. Okay. Thank you.
