Good afternoon, morning, evening or night, ladies and gentlemen of the jury. My name is Alex and I'm here, and I'm queer, and I'm introducing us to the JARMedia podcast. You missed out then. You old saying back in like four or five years ago was I'm here, I'm queer, get used to it. And you're almost there. I don't think I invented that, but I will take credit for it. Um, I'm your host, Alex. Um, to my writer's Jim. Your boy, J.B.

Your boy, J.B. And you've already heard James over there. Yeah. Just chill on. Chill on with the villains as he does. Um, the show is, uh, made possible thanks to Patreon. Patreon.com slash Jarm Media. Thanks for everyone who supported us there. And new people will join us every day for the show. The grown family. So we got some stuff this week to talk about. There's been quite good things.

Anything happened? No. Finish Reds there. Obsidian have been saved. Woo! Saved. They've been thrown onto the Microsoft. No.

Sinking shit. As you don't know, James loves Fall Out New Vegas developed by a Obsidian who've been purchased by Microsoft. We'll see their new thing in four or five years probably. Microsoft Studios at the moment, they're quite good. The main ones they have. potentially for the future yeah so now that adding a lot more companies in you know Microsoft is going to have some really good exclusives in the foreseeable future for the next console

maybe yeah too little too late me and jim did a video on red dead on jar media um have we actually talked about red dead no we purposefully didn't yeah talk about red dead and we won't say anything spoilerific if we do mention it so don't worry about that um i don't know if you wanted to say anything about it you've played what 11 hours or so i've played a while of it done the first like chapter got actual into the actual proper games and that's quite a long um like starting like yeah Alex you were starting it again I started it again yeah like two days ago or yesterday I can't remember um and the intro seemed way shorter than I remember it's one of those things where the first time you're doing it you're so unused to like how yeah yeah yeah first you haven't

played a red day you take it slower and it feels longer you know because you don't know what's coming whereas it's put it you You could probably do it in an hour, which I suppose for some games is a long time. It's quite long, yeah. I haven't played the most. I haven't got into the good, like, juicy story bits yet. I'm still getting there.

I was turned off by the old, like, camp stuff management, which it doesn't really exist. They just kind of explain it quite badly for me. But when I've done, like, the shooting stuff, when you're in a big fight, it is very, it plays well and it is fun. I just haven't given it enough time, and I should. Yeah, you do it. eventually come in

didn't you look up the story the ending I saw the ending but nothing in between like you you said a lot about it like the group chat but I have not actually seen anything about it won't mean anything without any context anyway I like I know the very the very basic part of it but I don't think even knowing that

it's not like the impact of the stories like losing it it's still going to be impactful even if I play the first Red Dead knowing what happens to the main character yeah even I did yeah I didn't actually anyway if you want more in depth Red Dead go into our jar media video

we went longer probably than the jarcast will go. Wasn't it like an hour and a half I think? Yeah, hour and 20 minutes. We just kept going and going because it's a good game. It's a really awesome game. My game in year. When is online coming up? Surely it's like two weeks ago? Um, it's rumored that it's the 28th of

November. 28th? Shit, there's some of my car insurance ones out. Um, so I had a guy show up to my house this week. Oh yeah? I remember you talking about this. Um, who was like hi I'm from the TV license company I'd like to no what did he say he said

have we got a TV license actually just before we get into some Americans of course yes in the UK you have to own a TV license if you own a TV not if you own a TV but if you watch like if you have a yeah like if you watch BBC because they don't have Broadcasting Centre or some shit

They're paid for by Yeah so like Blue Planet Doctor Who Shows like that They're all on BBC And the biggest appeal of the BBC Is that there's got no ads on it So

But you actually have to pay money But yeah Which is the TV list Yeah there's a licence So there's a yearly fee You're supposed to pay If you have your TV plugged in With one of those

Aerial cables Like a Skybox FreeVic box Yeah exactly Which I do not have Yeah so that idea in and of itself though is actually quite ahead of its time it's basically Netflix like the same idea

of getting TV no ads but you just straight up pay yeah yeah like a forced um subscription almost and it's not like cheap either every year it can it's over 100 quit or something it's like 147 or something something like that but the point was I don't I don't watch any live TV or I play or anything like that so I don't have to pay it isn't it you don't have to you just don't

or do you have to online you've got to go and put in like a form and say why you don't and if you don't or whatever but then randomly some guy from the government like I'm an outlaw on the run comes knocking to my yeah the Pinkettons come knocking on my door

and say you got some money for me boy yeah and they ask do you mind if I come in and check to make sure you're not actually watching and of course me being anti-confrontation

knowing that legally I could say well actually you don't actually have the right to come into my house but then makes you look ten times more suspicious then you get like then you get put into some book because of course my granddad yeah he's out there in Wales was just without he actually didn't have a TV and he had one of these people show up to his house

and he was like no you're not coming in need a warrant to come into my house of course being all like aggro about it and then it became this whole odyssey well he ended up calling the police on this person that kept coming to his house because he said like I don't want you on my property but the guy kept coming back in like a van trying to like scan for signals of a TV or some shit it's like a game it's like pulling out your fucking phone to look out yeah it's like well it's good to know that money's being with it's a good use then targeting one old man who actually doesn't have a TV

and he's just you know that's that's what pissed me off about it like he said he doesn't have a TV where's your proof that he has a TV like why do you keep coming back? There's got to be some sort of system that's

smarter oh well but I let him in and then he comes into my living room and of course first thing he sees is the YouTube plaque. He was like, oh, is that one of them YouTube plaques? How many subs is that for? I was like, oh, here we go.

I said it's for a million. And he was like, oh, wow. And then, like, you just didn't care after that. And when I gave my spiel of why I don't have a TV license, he was like, yeah, yeah, whatever. Yeah, I don't have one either. And then just left. He's being paid to do a job where he does,

he himself doesn't even agree with it. Oh, fair play He probably had a no white day because of that Just on a decent conversation Something interesting, I suppose What if it was actually a secret IHE fan And, uh, didn't work for the BBC It's just, it just come in

I would, that is my worst nightmare Mm-hmm The, some guy who is in my house Suddenly like recognises me You know, the, the worst thing I ever heard about Was like a group of YouTubers that lived in the same house Like some 14 year old boy turned up was driven there by his like mum oh really and he he was like hi can i have a

sleepover at yours really and they're like 25 year olds mm-hmm they're like no and of course they're probably like they're done a down player they don't want to be rude yeah because the kid's mum is right like in the car that's what makes it weird yeah why would a mother allow that i don't know if the kid was there you go go stay with some 20 year olds maybe the kids said that they were even so just random kids

whatever I've talked to plenty of YouTubers who when they're more forward facing and all their videos have like their house in and they show their faces a lot plenty of them have had

young kids just show up to the house or or slightly older people who shouldn't be who should know better and they have act as if they like know you and that they have a right to

sort of it's a bit it's a it's a bit much like it's different if you're out in the supermarket and someone says hey is that and then and they friendly politely approach you and say hello to you that's different to knocking on your door that's being like that level of invasion

of privacy what a lot of people don't what a lot of like overbearing fans like that don't realize is that um the fan has pretty much seen everything you do yeah so one side of conversation so but the content creator never knows this person even exists even if they are commenting on every video that's whenever that's why

whenever I've interacted with them anyone who's recognized us I'm always asking about them and how they found the video and what they do and stuff because they already know yeah exactly the basics of about me if they don't know me enough to recognize me so I was in the supermarket the other day just chilling just looking around for some food some nice yummies

and I had this like revelation moment where it's like you know you always like to think you're a bit unique right yes you always like to think you have something you have something going on that other people don't right yeah I'm wandering over to the meat substitute aisle as one does.

As one early 20-something does. And of course there's someone already standing there. And as I'm walking towards, I'm like just activate Analyze mode.

Analyze. And see, like, I start at the bottom. Okay, he's wearing converse. Go up slightly. Black skinny jeans. Go up slightly. Like, the fucking jacket and all. I was with you.

in the shop and it's a good thing I didn't just get in his car and go home with him because it was like not only which one's the real you yeah

when you got to the top he was like say I was the Charmelian he was the Charazard in terms of like the stereotype that I fit into because he had the like

long ragly hair yeah and circle glasses and one of those hipster hats on as well so it was a bit of a well there you go there's my that's my box

that I fit in then and not only us in that but also in the meat substitute are yeah and the other stereotype is for that kind of person is that they almost look malnourished you know they're so skinny

their legs are so skinny yeah in their skinny jeans so it shows it even more probably because they're not getting the nutrients they need or because they don't have the belmont jeans. Yeah. Like, I'm saying a gym. The beltman's, we're chunky.

Yeah, we're thick. We're, we're chunky boys. And then there's like me, but my jeans aren't like skinny. I've got quite bigger jeans and it's just like... You do have bigger jeans than me. I know, fucking long. Wow, real, real fucking great

joke. Sorry. But did you notice that guy's girlfriend? Was she also cut from the same cloth? She was exactly the same. That's what rocked my world So he's not only Charazard But he's a shiny Charazard Yeah

With ultimate epic game of girlfriend Who probably loves MacDemarco as well How can you Find someone so perfect for you? Like I mean props to him man Yeah But then what

They might have known each other for a while And they might have both gradually merged into becoming One probably was influenced by the other Most definitely either way So if that's that's obviously my stereotype like one step away from being vegan um yeah like fucking annoying like on the streets shouting anti-trump slogans well i'm not i'm not like that at

all no you're in the same bracket as in just purely on um there are the circles that overlap yeah the three and just in terms of fashion and pop culture stuff um not politics um and that kind of stuff yeah yeah um so where do you guys to be honest i can't even think we had nowhere to start of jim i do i don't i don't think it that it actually exists jim seems like a counterculture just well james is more counterculture than i am james is Trevor phillips proto hipster yeah what where you where you think no where you look at people like me and you think wow they fit into a fucking box fuck them I'm just gonna do what I want and by doing that

okay you just sum me up him on Sunday yeah exactly yeah but not as edgy there's no way to not be put into a box somehow because like unless you like nothing but then if you don't like anything then you're in that box of not liking it yeah that's the thing like but being in a box isn't inherently bad

no not at all that's that's of like a I can't think of the word but mindset something that people think is bad but it's not yeah because people like everyone wants to be unique yeah but it's actually great to be able to connect with someone over something

I remember someone like minded these two people I used to work with at work obviously at work not my previous job but the one before that like this new guy started and immediately it was just like

I like this so do I like this so do I And that's a great feeling. And that's because we both fit into the same box. Yeah, exactly. But my box is definitely Mima Gamer. Mima Gamer. No, Jim does fit in the Mima Gamer box quite well. The Fortnite fan.

But you're lucky you don't have the stereotypical gamer look, because the stereotypical gamer look is... It's James. It's not James. I'd say it's, you know, slightly overweight. maybe a bit pudgy not the best personal hygiene yeah

yeah bad sense of humor that's not a look though is it yeah true and no it does affect your look because you'll probably be wearing a stewie from family guy t-shirt or have a mug that says I stole your sweetwell on it you have a Brian badge I'm the next level where it's like the

ironic mocking of everything thing that's popular with a certain crowd where you're like so above everyone because your sense of humour is so ultimate so ultimate so if you feel in that what's the characters of being Trevor what is my box

well the thing is you you have a harder time liking something that is considered good by everyone yeah for you it's a put-off when something is really popular you like being the first one in Yeah, you do.

Yeah, Foursa Horizon series gets popular, dumps it. Although you did pick that back up. You have like a really random... That one specifically, I burn myself out for years. Yeah, I can... I can understand that, but then again, Fours of Five, how much did you play that? Too much.

You've got like an ultra-specific car. Yeah. That doesn't fit into the normal, like, Yobo thing. Mm-hmm. You're modding like a really random car. Okay, do you want to know why It's that kind of every car Why?

Because nobody else does that to that car Yeah, exactly That is a fucking hoaxed. Yeah, I do understand that logic though With a car specifically Yeah, I wouldn't want to be brandished as You want to make it your vehicle, you know? Yeah, so you want to make it your vehicle, you know?

Yeah, so you want to make it, you know That Ford and then Mod it the same way everyone else has done it Yeah, exactly. Yeah, that's in terms of car Especially when that's the whole, like, appeal of, like, the car culting culture modding. Yeah, so when you go to a car meet, it's not all just the same thing. Exactly.

That's why I don't go to car meets, because most of the time, it's the same thing. That's the problem I have with car thing, so I don't get involved in any car stuff because it's the same. Yeah. It's just repetitive. But besides that, what else is there? Like, looks, I don't think there's a look to being me in my body. There's a look to being irreverent, though. You literally wear the same beige.

shorts that are so broken that you hold them together with clips. Cable ties. That seems like laziness more than anything. Exactly. It was irreverence. Those are good shorts and I wear them when working on my car. I broke them while working on my car. You also wear them on the cast regularly.

Yeah. That's because that's like after I've worked on my car. And it's like, I've just broke my shorts while working on my car. Cable ties are there. It's just like keep them up. Cable tie. I feel like... I've done that of two shorts now actually.

I feel like one of the biggest indicators of this way of organizing people like various animals is um is hair hair all four of us including Rubin who's not here at the moment treat the way we deal with our hair differently so Rubin very regularly goes to the hairdresser yeah and it's like he needs to be trim and proper

that's like his thing yeah yeah um whereas James it's pure obligation right I don't even pay for it it's just like if I can do it I'm sort of similar with that and Jim you just ignore it yeah

but does that suit our boxes I think so what's Ruben's box then yeah of all box what is Rubin's kind of got a bit of everything in there he's got a bit of the he's obviously loves he's a gamer he's absolutely

a mima. He's in the gameer, he's got the fashion bit from the hipster thing. Ruben's is the same as Jim's in that way. It's the circles, but Ruben has a different circle to, of those three that Jim doesn't have. And I'd say that's like the gym kind of healthy, kind of active, laddish kind of circle, I guess. Well, Jim's in the healthy ladish. No, so Ruben is. He's, Jim has like the game. Why is the word healthy in there? Why is the word healthy in there? I'm using it's a way to describe, like, lads, they go to the gym, they work out that type of stuff. Healthy's just a word I stuck in there, because I'm shit-described. Okay, right. Because when I think lad, I think, piss up. Ruben out of all of us is the most ladish. I think that's probably fair to say.

He goes out drinking a lot more than us. Mm-hmm. He does all that type of stuff. So he's like, that's his circle that Jim doesn't have. What you're saying is that he's more social than us. He's more, yeah, which basically. Definitely is true. Yeah.

Because Reuben's not here to defend himself, I'm actually going to back him up a little bit. This isn't making fun of him. No. No, but he would not like being called a lad. No, he would be really angry at me if I called him a lad. No, but we didn't say he's like, he's just in that. We're saying he's got a bit of everything. Yeah.

I think he's kind of slightly in Jim's box, slightly in another one that's a completely different box. The thing is, like, Alex and I share boxes. but it doesn't In that way it shouldn't be about sharing boxes It's just having the circles that overlap Yes I mean sharing circles Do you find you sad that There are people out there

Who purposefully will not engage in things That they like purely because they think It puts them in a box Yeah I mean music or movies or Yeah no that that is sad I find the music one the saddest Because like you can listen to something poppy

and like like it but you're like you force yourself to not listen to it or not like it because you know it's pop and you don't want to be judged

yeah there's a lot of that especially in like music music especially because it's so personal and that's the thing of music I don't like I completely don't care

at all that I'll just listen to the worst shit like I have playlists of just like game pop in my car that I just blast but that suits that suits your box

Yeah, it does. But, no, I vaguely remember, especially when I was younger, 17, 18. Yeah. Being really self-conscious about the music I listen to more than anything. Yeah. I can't remember if I did mention it in another cast recently. I'm pretty sure you've mentioned it.

But it was really brief, and I think right at the end, so I didn't properly get to go into it. But it was somewhere around the peak where Dubstep was really popular. I remember that. And I remember sat, like, doing it. some design technology work or something and listening to whatever

I think it was Bangorang by Scrillx which like I've got a complicated relationship with that song because we watched the music video the other day yeah we did I don't like the song but oddly I sort of do a bit

I like elements of it I like little bits of it and at the time it was like this internal conflict, this battle within me where it's like, okay, first off, step one, put phone other way round, so if it comes, if I get like a notification, no one can see. I do that now. But so people can't see what song I'm listening to. Yeah, I mean, I'll do the same if my headphones are written. Yeah. And I put my phone down. It will be face down. Yeah. Just from a habit from when I was that age. And also, I also did that as a habit because I would listen to a lot of

lame shit like um a lot of like soundtracks from like video games and movies and stuff like that stuff that's stereotypically considered lame um now of course i wouldn't care at all i don't i don't give a shit if you see what i'm listening to i don't hide what you know people like when they're like oh i gotta show you this song i'm gonna put my spotify onto to private browsing now so you can't so no one can see that i'm listening to it for me i don't give a shit no i i if you see that i'm listening to the sonic soundtrack, whatever. Not that I would.

That's one I would never listen to. But yeah. But I found, like, in school, you can... It's literally, like, walking through a box factory. Like, you can see all people's boxes. Yeah, it's like the production line of people being put into their boxes. Oh. But it's also, like, also, it's like a battleground in the middle of a factory.

so as your box is being assembled there's one injunction with you that's got like those big judging eyes that are watching it so they'll take they'll use any weakness they can find in you to try and put you down anything that makes you stand out so if it's like you're listening to some weird dorky song and they see it oh that's it they'll just go in and be like you're listening to that wow on this subject list some weird dorky song and they see it ohf that's it they'll just go in and be like you're listening to that wow on this subject list some talk about bullies for a little bit no I was purposely trying to not talk about bullies actually you pretty much brought it up but you made them boxes instead okay Jarre hates bullies

we have an announcement to make there's a bully in all of us though like there's still bullies on this sofa right now yeah I mean James when he's driving he's the biggest bully of them all that's not correct I've only, like, shouted at someone once, and I don't know why I did.

You've shouted more than once. No, I haven't. I don't remember. There's only the one time we were leaving Testigo that I was just like, I just snapped for some reason and just, like, screamed. You didn't shout at the guy, though. Like, you didn't roll down the window. Yeah, you couldn't hear it. He was long gone.

No, I wouldn't do that, because someone not indicating, it's not worth me, like, harassing them. There are certain groups that, depending on what's relevant, on what the year is and bloody, blahdy, blah, are sort of hated more than others. So I'd say the, the vegan hatred, that kind of thing. That's very powerful. It's at an all-time high. And the gamer...

Gamers are... It's weird because a lot of gamers also love making fun of gamers, so... Yeah, but a lot of gamers also deserve it. Yeah, that's the thing with that one. I suppose you can say the same about some vegans going a bit too far. I feel like with the vegans, there are more that are just doing their own thing, not harming anyone. And it's just the odd little one that's making them look. Yeah.

Meanwhile, as gamers, it's like... Whereas there are just so many gamers. Like, just so many of them. All it takes is for a hundred of a thousand to be little cringy children to ruin it. It's more like 500, though, unless you will. Yeah, there probably is quite a high, like, percentile, chance of a of a

gringy gamer yeah and it's been it's kind of been fermenting for a while now the cringy gamer is that why you wouldn't call yourself a gamer because of that

though that well what does one have to be to be ultimately defined as a gamer I wouldn't say Alex is a gamer I feel like gamer is when gaming is your

number one source of entertainment no Why not? What else? What other parameters aren't that? So Ben Stiller isn't a gamer? I don't know what is gaming rituals are like, so. I'll tell you what, though.

He's a pretty good voice actor, Madagascar 2, especially. That love triangle with Motto and Gloria in Madagascar 2 is awesome. The fact of you remember those types of things. We were watching Madagascar videos. I was trying to get Jim on board with the Madagascar love. Alex still loves Madagascar 3. No, but Alex has always loved Madagascar, like, since even like 14, it's just like...

Not the original. I remember we watched the original, and even as kids, we were like, ugh. That was lame. And I was, yeah, I wasn't even a Madagascar one defender back then. No. And I'm still not to this day. I might be coming around on Madagascar 2, though. Yeah, that...

That's the penguins. That's the one they get lost on an island. It's the one with the Will I Am soundtrack. Oh, yeah, in the pouring rain. That's always what, because the third one had a bullshit bit like that as well, with some Katie Perry or Rihanna song. In the circus. I've not seen the third one.

What happens in the second one? They go to Africa. Yeah, they try to escape Madagascar, but the plane crashes. In Africa. In Africa. And it happens to be where Alex's dad was or something. It happens to be where all of their families are. like in this one small area

Okay then the third one was just like Just crazy Or something in cars and They go to Italy They go to France They do they start in Africa I don't fucking know I don't give a shit it's Madagascar

But they're all as shitty as each other They're all crap movies Because as as As funny as a couple lines The Penguins might say are they always have that bullshit morals like it can't be mental the whole time

they never let it no be funny the whole time it's got to have like oh Alex got defeated in battle yeah we'll be back up to these messages that's enough talking about Madagascar why I'm not a fan of Madagascar to be honest I'm not a fan of any animated movie

shut up true yeah that is completely bullshit unless it's Japanese does that not count for some reason they are animated movies I know that they do count but I'm on about the western like you've just seen shit ones anyway what western animated movies

mm-hmm like I've seen all the toy stories seen all the Shrex seen the first in Madagascar movies so like a ton of shit you're listing right now uh monsters ink monster sink the original one's a good one I like that one

Well, I just completely contradict to my own points So we can move on So we're okay with going into the questions I'm happy with that If you want to leave you know No, we haven't talked about meme chat today We haven't, we could just leave it this week Yeah, let it collate for a bit

Yeah, it's really getting with whatever It's a mediocre time for me Actually know, on the subject in Managascar The Penguin memes are done The Analyze memes, they're gone I don't think they are Coloski-analyze I've seen a lot of

And I'm just like, that's not even funny, that's quite bad. Anyway, this is the part of the show where we answer questions from the community. If you want to leave your own for us to answer, head over to the JAR Media Reddit, and there's a thread at the top for you to ask us anything you want. The more questions, the merrier. The more questions. Probably the less likely, you're going to be there. Unless it's so epic that people in the community upvote it, and then it gets to the top.

It gives us a nice broth to soaps ourselves. So Dick the Head, a classic reoccurring member, asks, Which Lord of the Rings character is James? Everyone may answer this question except for James. So just me specifically. Airwain, I reckon. Rich, who's Erwin? I'm a big role of Rings fan.

I've seen them like 50 times, but I can't remember. Are you saying it weirdly? Is it Irwin? Airwain, yeah. Who's he? She? Who's she? She's the one who kills

You know The Radagas the Brown She kills him I'm joking How is it spell I'm going after Google searches Eowin

Like air Spell it phonetically Air She's the one who Conquers the Fortnite Is she the one The one that She's in the love triangle

With Aragorn Yeah and she goes I'm no man I am no mad Dess Miller man Um, I'd say James is Sauron. Okay, now that's pushing it a bit far. I'm not that bad.

Sauron in eye form, or Sauron in muscle, epic form? Um, I form. James is always looking down on me. James is I form Sauron. He's always, like, looking out. I don't know James is judgmental around. Maybe he is a little bit. I'm not judgmental, ever.

I don't judge anyone. I give them a fair chance. to show me what they actually were. Okay, but if you had an ultimate ring of power, what would you do with it? Go invisible. Would you control the whole world? No, I wouldn't.

He absolutely would. I just put it in the... James would annihilate all gamers, which is why James is Sauron. Hmm. Solid point. Why can't I think of the white wizard's name? Gandalf?

No, the white... Sauroman. Sauron. Sauron. Sauron. Sauramon is the wizard, and Sauron's the evil. one. Yeah, that it's... Very confusing J.R.R. Tolkien, disappointed in you for that.

Yeah, try harder next time. Okay, so... You know, one of our relatives was taught by J.R. Tolkien. Mental. Awesome. Okay, so I'm an elf and the worst person in the world. I don't think you are an elf. No, I wouldn't be an elf. You're too hairy. They're too rugged. Yeah.

You're too much of a man. I just, I, well, I'd be a draw then. Or... No, because, because then you're too tall and lanky for. for it. But if you talk about physical features, there's only one way, it's like man or elf. Man. Man.

Anyway, we named your character. He's Aragon. Jim, who are you from the Lord of the Rings universe? I'm... I swear we've done this before. I feel like we have, yeah. I'm that, like, fat old hobbit that's like... At the start of the first one.

Who loves... Who is grumpy, but when he sees fireworks, He displays a bit of emotion. And then his wife goes, what are you doing? I know we did talk about this because it just changed into what Skywin characters are we? Yeah, we can't go down that, right. Okay, I'm out. What character's Ruben, though?

Does at least do Ruben? Ruben's Gimli. Yeah, okay, Ruben is Gimli. Skectaw says, will there be another jarred cringmus this year? And if so, who is giving the good gifts? We were talking about this right before we started recording this. But the thing is, um... So there are four of us.

Um, one of us always does good gifts and the others do like joke gifts. Um, James has done good gifts. Rubin's done good gifts. It's just me and Jimmy. I'm not looking forward to James joke gifts. James always takes it that one step. He goes really far. Yeah, he goes in.

It's because I still got those razors and that shaving phone. To be fair, I took some of the shaving foam. I did as well and I'm still using them. I've still got three bottles and they worked. They're fantastic. No, but the thing. about mine is what did you get me

those socks what the fuck was it okay the joke one last year I got you the gin the year before suicide squad shirt yes I got you

suicide squad shirt and there was that epic moment where we two of us got suicide squad shirts for each other no it's just the thing about me

is I have a fantastic memory for the most insignificant things so you can pull them out your hat at the last minute yeah like what was Rubens one

I think Ruben got something, some gift one of you got, which you, you talked about, like, in the beginning of the year, and I just pulled it out and was just like, it's smart. It's the best way to do gift giving me. What happened to all those chocolate footballs? I bin them. Oh, yeah, yeah. Did you not even eat them? There was so many. And it's not even nice chocolate. You know that. It's like awful. Chocolate footballs are shit. It was 30 pound of them, though. That was worth it for the And people got into a habit of getting me a massive tub of jelly beans just a year after year. That's too predictable.

You have to play it like. But also after like the first year I'm just sick of jelly beans and I never want to see them again. And also they have those fucking red cinnamon hot flavored ones that's just like they should only exist in whiskey form. Not fucking jelly bean form. I, you, yours this young and make extra special of my joke gifts. I think we decided I'm doing good gifts you're doing good gifts so Jim will get out of it every year all the good joke gifts came from me though all the awesome sticking ones hey my ones over here cyclops you got pigman sponge bob to be fair I wasn't actually here that year and the year

before my joke gifts were pretty good the suicide squad shirt the balls the shaving foam so yes The answer is yes. Yes. We're going to make it extra special, though. We're going to do some more stuff. Maybe. Oh no. Kiwi Crumble says,

Lego have now announced an Overwatch set theme with mini-figs and sets of all the characters and a bunch of random locations. What existing piece of media or culture would frustrate to you the most if it became Lego? Probably Overwatch. That did genuinely piss me off. um we did have that overwatch rant last week yeah for which you pissed some people off james

with your did i really assessment yeah what did i say because i was like i was like right this is my really hyper specific complaint about overwatch i'm not going to talk about mechanics because not that familiar with them and then you go in and start talking about the mechanics and piss people off hey i've i played that that game to level 60 solo which as you play as with people you level up like triple as fast i play the game a fucking lot and the the The game plays fucking bollocks. It's like fallout 76 deer. Let's not go back into that.

I would, flipping the question on its head, I would really like to see some Fallout 76 Lego. No, that would actually be genuinely epic, though. Yeah, it would actually. It would be a fun theme, but too adult creepy for Lego.

That's what I don't get because Overwatch, I just associate with porn. Yeah, so having like Lego versions, now there's probably going to be Lego Overwatch porn. Like another layer to it. which might be kind of epic and awesome yeah might have done correctly

I don't think I don't think there's anything media wise that I love so much that I would seeing Lego Fortnite would that annoy you yeah I'd be more annoyed by Lego PubG

yeah I was gonna say it but like no but too warry Lego PubG would be so much easy so easy to make because they already got all the sets it wouldn't do it's too militaristic yeah but where I could see

Lego Fortnite you can see a Lego minifigure of that better you could see a Lego mini figure of that bear What would piss me off is Lego ice climbers Holy fuck Me and Jim Blade ice climbers last night That game It sucks so bad

That game fucking sucks Light planers and smash But holy fuck are they shit In that game Their original game The one game that ever existed Because it sucks so much I don't think there's nothing

There's nothing What do I like so much that I get upset Well no if you like it loads Then you're gonna like that it's Lego No, but isn't the question. It has to be something that would like really annoy you if you saw. Okay, what do I hate so much?

How about like a really detailed Lego set of a car that you think really stinks? No, because all the Lego sets of the car stuff, the technique, like Lego stuff, I think they're really cool. They're really interesting. No, I'm saying if there's like a car that you think really sucks in his line.

But I wouldn't because then it's in... Okay, fuck you then. If there was like a full-out New Vegas Lego, I'd be like, I'd buy that fucking shit. Quick. Like meme Lego. You know what I mean? You build your own troll face, stuff like that.

Did you notice in the Dosa place? We don't take American Express. Yeah, meme. Yeah. Oh. Oh, that's a bad one. Lovely place, though. Got a pretty interesting sort of philosophical moral question here.

Oh shit, here we go. No, that's not really. Futuristic Bagel says, would you be homeless for one year for five million quid? I feel like that's easy, right? You just say yes. Yeah, but what's going to happen in that year? What are you going to have to do to get homeless, actually?

Because there is what everyone knows as homeless is, you know, living rough, you know, sleeping out on the street. Well, how about, yeah. But there is some situations where people are homeless, but they're not that level of homeless. The country isn't specified is the important thing. Imagine being homeless, you know, somewhere where it would be really awful. Brazil, for example, being homeless there. Well, if you were homeless just on a tropical island there, where nobody else is there,

and you just eat crab and crayfish, we'd all die. Technically, that would be homeless. If you don't live in your home, you're homeless. That's the thing, they. I feel like most people could make being homeless work for one year for that amount of money. Well, yeah, if you think, there's a lot, because I'm, I'm sorry. I sometimes watch garbage is there's a lot of stuff about people living in their cars they're like that that's homeless but they have like showers and toilets in their cars

you I could live I feel like that doesn't count though if you're if you have those resources available but it's still you got to like shit on the street or in a really gross public toilet is that the level we're talking about being homeless yeah like no indoors as in you have nothing it would be doable and you just like do some fortnight dances on street to get some money to buy yourself a so you can buy yourself a switch so you can play Fortnite on the go yeah you're allowed to have a switch when you're

homeless is that allowed it would be the worst year of your life I would yeah followed by the best life yeah life yeah it might ground you a little bit yeah that as well before you're giving that huge amount of money to literally you'll spend you like right I'm gonna go give to all these homeless charities gonna once a week going

to a soup kitchen, stuff like that. I'll do that, but first I'd go by every Mazdar Act 7 on eBay. All of them. It's like I do. Mr. Orange 364 says, thoughts on the Joker movie coming out, but I need to elaborate on that, because there are actually two Joker movies coming out,

so get it fucking right. Really? If I have my information correctly, there are two movies with the Joker in, with the Joker's being played by different actors, one being Joaquin Phoenix, and the other one being Jared Letter. Is one a Joker movie and one like a Batman movie?

Or are they both Joker movies? I want to say they're both actually Joker movies. Although I might be wrong on the Jared Leto one. I know for a fact the Joaquin Phoenix one is a standalone Joker movie. What was the last movie he was in? Joaquin? Yeah. I only remember one while that it was in.

He was in that film this year. I haven't seen yet that I've been meaning to. He was in Gladiator, wasn't it though? Yeah, it was in Gladiator. That's what I'm going on from. He was also in her, stuff like that. That was a good while on that. A really good movie.

Obviously, bad idea, right? Yeah, standalone Subaru movies based off vague villains has not been. It looks lame. Punisher movies, all lame. Venom recently, obviously, total dog shit. Incredibly successful. But, like, is Batman going to be referenced? Is it one of those confusing things again?

Jim, only a few months ago, we were saying, how could a venom work without Spider-Man? And we got proved wrong. It was truly awesome. It's the exact same case where this character, even like in the comics and stuff, I'm pretty sure they suggest

that he probably wouldn't even exist if Batman wasn't doing his thing. It's his own point of it. It's his only motivation. He doesn't give a shit about making money or whatever. And it also kind of defeats the point of the character

without there being any mystery behind him He's like overthrowing the government in this one And look like the way Venom kind of makes you Or tries to make you sympathise with the character And kind of explain that there's more to him than in him Just being a villain They're obviously going to try and like He's going to have a tragic backstory

Where his daughter gets killed or his wife dies Or some shit like that And it's just like wow How to make a potentially really interesting character Super lame and boring Well, they're just going to use the back story from The killing joke The killing joke, yeah

Which I can't, does his wife die? Yeah, because his wife is pregnant From memory, he does have some kind of family Yeah, he has a wife that's pregnant Isn't he addicted to gambling or some shit, right? And he, because he's in trouble with the mafia Or something like that, some kind of crime gang. Well, he does a job for some crime dudes

And it goes wrong Right? And then he falls into a vat of paint, and then he becomes Joker. Yeah, he becomes perma clown. Beans on Toad replied to that, saying, Alex kind of is the Joker, if you think about it. I certainly am pretty damaged. Is the Joker a gamer?

If he was born in 2018, the Joker would be a gamer. His anger from Fortnite would inspire him to become the Joker. If he was born in 2018, he wouldn't be like, He wouldn't, he'd be... Well, he'd grow up to be a gamer. You think Fortnite's going to be gone when he's eight? Eight-year-old gamer, 20...

Alex, that's like, 8 years away, Alex. 2026 Joker, he's given his Nintendo Switcher's birthday because they'll just be giving him out by then. Fortnite mobile, whatever. Even with some V-bucks thrown in. Gets the clown skin.

It's all over. Pooh- With that one other player that's playing it at that time Pooh-Fart 99 says What's the most you've ever eaten in one sitting? P-S cookie equals cake But you use the emoji So it was emoji cookie

Then the equal sign Cookie equals cookie Anyway Um To be honest I don't know What's the question It's quite a hard one

You did eat a fuck down yesterday Jim, you ate a dosa, you ate some boiled vegetables and some meat substitute with gravy, you went to Casper's, you got a waffle, and a milkshake, and a squid. I didn't have a squid, I had some squid. Because our mother joined us at Casper's, because it was like our family from up north came down, so the whole family went to Casper's. Do you know what was weird? Okay, what was weird?

We were sat in that Casper's. and I heard someone yell Jamie and I was like Whoa I was really worried Maybe someone from the Jami saw you That's what I was That's what I was terrified of

That would have been the best time too Where we're there with our mum and dad And a couple of relatives From up north It would have been awful Well because we We talk about Casper's quite a lot I feel We do go there quite a bit

Way more often than we should But we hadn't been for a while True, true You guys We're going to be going two days in a row So You guys broke the addiction Meanwhile I've still been going regularly

Last time I went Oh yeah if we do go today I can't go in because it's still fucking awkward On last week Like oh shit Nah they don't give a crap Yeah they don't even look at you in the eyes They don't know what you look like

He looked at me in the eyes As my face was covered in chocolate In someone else's meal It's a bit like Fuck Point it was Jim did eat a lot yesterday and he's been farting like a little fart soldier. Yeah, I might

need to do a third poo of the day. Jim, you get them out now so that then you don't have to do it later while we're playing siege. It's strange because I can take so much food. I should be enormous. You know, I feel like...

We've just got that beautiful beltman metabolism. I wish I could eat like Jim does because I would not be this fucking thin. What you might be if you had is metabolism. No, I do, I do gain weight. That's a fact. Yeah, but say you were a 45-year-old woman or man.

Yeah. And you eat the exact same way. You'd be dead. You wouldn't wake up the next day. You'd wake up looking like that woman with that 80-centimeter ass. 80-inch ass, sorry. You seen this woman? You said a picture you've seen it ages ago. No, I'm on that show with, um, the best.

guy ever what's that guy cool with the white hair and Holly Willoughby some British I love that dude I know who it is I can't remember his name he's like the ultimate 40 year old mum that's just fucking love him what's his name well I'm I'm a 40 year old man then I genuinely have the biggest crush on that dude

I don't know what his name is he has a really like recognisable name and I don't know it is it called good morning good morning yes is it cool good morning I thought it was something to do with breakfast I never watch any thing with him in but whenever I see him he just he's in adverts recently where the joke is he's in he's in he's in yeah yeah he's like a in it's not good morning insurance adverts you sure I'm pretty sure it is good morning Britain yeah no

maybe is it something to do a breakfast something to do breakfast yeah I just search hot TV show host no fuck it that'll fucking get he'll definitely be the first Anyway, Barry Boy, 8, asks, how do you think religion will adapt for space exploration slash colonialization? Sorry, colonization, not colonialization. Misread. The Christianity is going to turn into that weird religion from dead space. That is a creepy, awesome idea.

Creepy slash awesome concept. I think it all depends on. if anything were to change in terms of discovery, like discovering other life out there. That would change it. Like significant life. Like we find a little, you know, piglet thing. And it's like, there is life.

There is tangible life that we're, like, everyone's just passing around this piglet looking at it, analyzing it 24-7 all over, spinning around, making it scream. That's proof that there's life. And you hand it to the Pope and he's like, well, fuck it. guess there is life. That's when things get serious.

Why? Because anything that contradicts religious texts or whatever. Yeah, but things already do. That's a big one, that's a big one there. Yeah, but no matter what it is, they'll just go, yeah, but it didn't mean that. And that's it.

You can't defeat it. They'll take out the bits that they don't like. I mean, fossils proves everything that every religious text has said wrong. But they've adapted it Jim. Yeah, and they're just like, yeah but no.

That's their No, but come on. Yeah. God planted those there. Yeah, the devil put them there to make you know. There is any way to spin it, but it will get to a point where it's like, we're so fucking ultimate, right? We have

we have like mechanical bodies and our wing, we have wings. We can just fly now. Aliens exist. We're just co-existing with them I think if an like aliens came down and they were like we made you Then everyone would just worship them. I'd worship them. Yeah, like well you're real never like shake your hand to prove the the religious people are wrong They're like look look I can make one right now just goes look Put that a little baby is like see it would more likely be like God that would suck wouldn't it in a way

I'd be cool with that the mystery of the greatest mystery of humanity is like an alien lands and they're just like this primitive life form just going around going and then they take a shit and it's a human

yeah it probably is something like that as well like there's just like this race of creatures they go planet to planet just probably just eating grass or something boring like that drinking water maybe they just get some energy

do a big plop and from that plop it causes reaction and then something it probably is something like as bullshitty as that surely if there was like life forms out there loads of different things surely there will be

about how vast it is it might be so vast just say Earth was a pit stop on the way to actual awesome planet really far away and once there are an awesome epic planet they just don't need anything anymore

but surely if those life are there there will be a massive galactic war like mass effect level where like shit's going down what if a no but the the the universe might end or at least our world might end before we even have the technology to go for yeah what if their technology is simply so freaking epic or they don't have technology like they could be behind us yeah I mean the likelihood is there are ones in front and behind but yeah if if if if if if it A species is intelligent enough to be able to do things such as explore other planets with ease, as if it's just like going down the street. Interacting with ants is not going to be at the top of their agenda, is it?

No. But the thing is, the universe is so vast. like we we tend to think in terms of just our galaxy because we can we can somewhat yeah break it down into a chunk there's so much shit in that galaxy we can't even go our heads around that but then there's we're just a galaxy in a sea of galaxies it's just endless and somewhere in there are the guardians of said galaxy

of our galaxy probably baby group just out of the baby grout shitting out humans. That would piss me off. If it came down, the doors open. Just gas. And Michael Jackson playing. There's that steam covering the figure that's coming through, the shadow of the figure.

Out it comes. You just hear a booming. I am Groot. And then A, B, C. Easy as one, two, three. That'd be kind of epic there. No, I'd kill myself. I'd cringe. into oblivion and be like, no

your boy 08 says I recently saw Bohemian Rhapsody and it really got me thinking you know how in the 60s 70s 80s we had these huge bands that everyone loved like the Beatles, Queen, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin Dire Straits etc. Today there's no such thing popular music artists change so much

and don't have the everyone loves it appeal will we ever have one of those huge bands again? Okay stop. First of all not everybody loved them. Exactly. We don't that we went from that time. There were the ones that I guess have stood the test of time. There would have been Alexes, there would have been

Jameses who would have just had their own box. But maybe me back then would have been like, nah. You know? I'm saying... So you're implying that there are bands existing now that in 40 years' time

are going to be as freaking epic as some of those. Yeah. No, I don't think it's quite a same. Why now? Why now the reason? people my point though is that like if someone was 30 when the Beatles was first getting popular they probably be like this is lame because they would have been like

10 in 1940 so yeah so the shit they'd be listening to would be like the lame as shit yeah but the Beatles would be too new and scary for them yeah exactly I feel like everyone didn't like them yeah think no no think about the huge revolutions in music that came with each one of those decades right new new sounds new experimental shit that we just hadn't heard before it feels like from the 50s I think music just completely changed and you know why that is that that rapid like just with you know technology creative minds a lot of drugs probably it's because young people had money after World War II I guess

so they had to um i watched like a whole informative documentary on this subject that's why like Elvis was super popular because all they started making things aimed for younger audiences so all of that stuff was the same i think that period like even everything it was made to be like fast-paced and like but yeah but we've kind of reached saturation point in terms of you make a new band chances are because of how much music exists it's going to sound like little bits of it are going to sound familiar in one way or another you know

so no matter how big a new boy band is or anything like that it's not going to be the same yeah I know what you mean and we just have way more choice you know yeah like when Elvis was as big as he was I mean he was a little radio it sounded like that

yeah no I didn't have mobile phones where you can listen to and choose anything you could ever want. Yeah, I don't think bands are going to be remembered in the same way. Like, I don't think Drake is going to stand the test of time. No, not at all. In 10 years' time, maybe a bit longer.

But I think in that case, it's because there'll be people who do the same thing as him that will replace him, and they'll be popular of that time. And it'll just constantly cycle out. Yeah, I think that rounds up the show then, fellas. I believe so. Well, basically, I'd rather Goodbye

He does this every time Yeah, he can't help himself I was going to say so about the boot Thanks for supporting us on Patreon and that lot And we'll see you on the next episode I would have just been able to sneak in If James hadn't fucking ruined it Don't worry, Sandy's on the screen

We'll be alright
