What is up? Good afternoon, morning, evening or night.
And welcome to that, that car.
I have James.
Yes, hello.
I have Alex.
Yes, hello.
And we also have the patrons over at Patreon,
who keep it real
thank you
how are we doing
today jemmy
jemmy
oh you know
so you've
um
plucked your nose as a little bit
no
oh shit i can tell the difference for me and you might
just hiding your secrets
yeah
how you doing over there Alex
Yeah, I'm alright
For real or are you lying
I'm feeling pretty normal
We're not doing another normal episode
I never want to do a normal episode
Your normal episode was possibly one of the worst episodes
I'm just going to straight upset
Possibly one of the best episodes
Possibly
I'm trying to find a quote from
The worst
You think when we've had lows
We've had lows low than most YouTubers
You know we started on the floor
We're now here
and we had an episode where we talked about ordering a curry
for like an hour straight
normal episode though
absolutely
worse than the curry episode
I take the curry episode
any day of the week
Did you listen to it?
No
Did you?
Full of shit
Yeah I listened to it about four times
Four times
So it's a masterpiece
Yeah it's one of the classic
So once again we've made a masterpiece
Yeah it's just for shitting them out at this point
Yeah, that's all we have to do.
We just like take a do-do and then we got number one on letterboxed, you know, and we stay gold.
Yeah.
And I'd like to mention, at all the things that, you know, you've got to stay gold over,
it is the fact that Ashes Trashes is David Bowie's best song.
Without a doubt, you cannot argue against.
That is objectively his best song.
just after
apart from the fact
it's not yeah
no no it is
straight up it is
it's ashtra's
fascination
and then who was
fascination
yeah like
he was a fascist
stuff
what about the garden gnome
yeah that's my favourite one
what's it called
the laughing gnome
how does it go
I am the laughing
name
you can't
catch me
ha ha ha ha
um
explain what we're on about
David Bowie released a song
it was it was in the 60s
wasn't it
yeah so when everyone was just
absolutely wasted all the time
yeah and it sounds like something
from uh
avon and the chipmunks
he's got like this high pitch laughing
like people
people need to know
yes about the laughing gnome they need to
go on YouTube or whatever and search this and
you probably will lose some respect
for a beloved artist
it must be like the worst song I've heard
it's so so bad
no no no no we listen to some shit
songs today like Beyonce's song from the Lion King
this is better this gnome song is better
no no no it is
it is really bad it's not something you'd
it is really bad
it's not something you'd expect from
David Bowie
yeah
laughing
it's fucked up
he was obviously like so
just fucked up on mushrooms or something
it also has the most
boy band fucking
like
EP EP cover
Yeah that's 60s for you
Like
Holy fuck
Should I read the lyrics
Read some of them
Can we sing the lurks
I can't remember
Any of it
So
Excuse my voice
For audio listeners
I have a cold
So
I was walking down the high street
When I heard footsteps
Behind me
And there was a little old man
Hello
In Scarlet
in grey, chuckling away.
Well, he trotted back to my
house, and he sat beside
the telly.
These are the lyrics.
With his tiny hands on his tummy,
chuckling away, laughing all day.
I like it's the fact he's using...
I ought to report you to the gnome office.
He's using the arkey voice.
Ha ha ha, he, he.
I'm a laughing gnome.
And you can't catch me.
ha ha ha he he i'm a laughing gnome and you can't catch me said the laughing gnome
you want me to keep going no i was about to say it i like people get the gist i like the
addition of the argue voice then that's what it sounds like yeah no argue voice is way
better do your impression of the argue voice
I hate the argue voice
more than I hate
most things
I'm not doing an impression
No no no no
Alex you do it just for reference
So James can have a fair shot
Hello
Hello
Hello
What's your problem
I'm the laughing now
What's your problem
I'm laughing now
Jim can you do it
I'm not laughing no
So do the pay-pay voice
Hey, what's so?
That's not the Paisy voice
We gave Paisley voice
You created the Paisley voice
You need to...
It wasn't iconic enough
You know, what's happened this week?
You know?
Like it's been a week since the last one
What's happened?
What did you think's happened, Jamie?
Nothing.
Yeah.
six uh okay vote green party it's the only way the world is going to live no no no no no
what if i don't want the world to live ever think about that and i'm doing my bit as a globe
trotter i'm doing my bit we're going to dedicate this episode to talking about um the local
politics of wiltshire due to the um large
amount of agriculture um careers within the region um these are people surviving off of off of
the land essentially their own business so it it it might not be in the best interest of the agricultural
phenomenon um workers to vote for a left wing
parliament
well they're idiots
aren't they
no
an actual topic I have
that was a topic
um being
did you see for the last episode
it was a premiere
that set at that type of video
on YouTube
do you know about this
no no
have you never seen any of the
YouTube is you're subscribed to
do a premiere. What does it do?
It like
you set it, when you're uploading the video
you set it as a premiere
and
Or is it premiere?
And it kind of appears
in the subscription feed
as like
like a live stream almost
but it's a video
and it's there and it says it's going to be played at this time
and you can sit
and you can sit in like a chat
and and like once the time hits then the video goes live and it's like streamed so you can't skip ahead
like if the video's an hour long you can't skip ahead you have to like watch with it so once the hours
like you won't be able to skip for it's live streaming videos done it's live streaming for pre-made video
basically yeah but I just I only did it out of pure curiosity because I'm too scared to
fiddle with it on IHE but seeing as there's a cast every week it doesn't matter that much
if one was like kind of messed up by it it didn't seem to really do anything aside from
confused some people because some people thought it was live that they thought we were
recording last episode live so we weren't I think it would be a train wreck if we recorded live
why it would be the same thing fuck it let's do it live yeah as long as it wasn't
one of those episodes where
we needed some emergency editing
Yeah, Jim
Like happens occasionally when we say someone's name
By accident
Or something like that
Well
Maybe you guys should stop
Learned and not docks people
And then we wouldn't be in that issue
Would we?
Oh my God
Oh my God
What have we been
engaging in lately?
Oh my God
Sekiro 2 but worse
Excuse me
You're still playing
Fallen Order
Yeah Star Wars
I don't think I talked about it last time
I swear we did
I think I mentioned it
Yeah
A while I've played it
A week or two ago
I haven't finished it but
Good
Good game
Really good game
I don't know if I would have
Stuck with it as long as I have
though if it wasn't Star Wars
Yeah, I could see that
I don't know why you'd really care about the game
To be honest if you really like Star Wars
Because like it
Everything it does
Well not everything it does
But the majority of
What you do in the game is combat
And the combat is just worse
Securo
So
Is it Securo or Sekiro?
Well it depends if you want to
Like pretend to be Japanese or not
No
It says a white way and the wrong way
Simple
Way
I'd say if you're English
It's perfectly fine to say
Sakura
Or Sekiro
Either or whatever
Anyway that's not my point
Very good game
I like it
And I like Star Wars
It's sort of like
Relit that fire for me
Like oh this is why I like Star Wars
Because it's
Right, yeah
It's like
Lighthearted
But dramatic enough
Has some stakes
Yeah
And just a really interesting world
Yeah, it's nice
Yeah
That's the word for the game
Nice
It's nice
A bit of comfort food
Yeah
It's a bit of nice
About you James
And some reason
You know
The New Star Wars movies
Aren't that
No they're not
Why aren't
No but why aren't they
they are that that's all they are so why aren't they because they're not nice they are nice
if you don't go in if you go in expecting nothing you have a good time
so you're saying we should lower the bar and then just accept stuff no no no i'm saying
i'm saying just don't give a shit no matter what i just don't care what happens don't care
about the story go in and have a fun time if you post i just don't agree with that
philosophy if you go into
everything in life with that
you're never fucking disappointed if
you've got really low expectations
you can't be disappointed but
no it's not expectations
that's exactly what you're saying no because I got
go in expecting shit
no no no no no and then you'll be happy
no because
that's so you're such an
awful philosophy that's having
expectations at all that's thinking
of this might not be good I'm saying don't
think anything that's not expecting
anything there's no low
So you are expecting nothing, which is the bare minimum.
That is like the lowest something can be.
And there's no problem with that.
You go in, you have fun.
Easy.
That's not even talk about Star Wars, at least until the trilogy is over.
And when's it over?
Out of our systems.
Do you think people are going to like it?
No.
I think it's going to be just a maelstrom of hundreds of different opinions.
and yeah
I don't know
yeah but what do you think
the correct opinion
will be on the movie
I don't know
because I haven't seen the movie
I'm saying
do you think you will
I feel like
everyone's going to be
like extra critical
yeah
so
whatever
we literally talk
and out of all of those people
who's going to have
a better time
me because I don't
expect anything
that's reasonable
don't argue against me
I'm saying
it's fine for you to do that
just don't expect me to do that
no that's not how it works
do you go
into like you know
a rock movie
with expectations
no because the rock has never
done or been in anything good
and can you have fun in his movies
no because they're all bad
that's bullshit and you know it
what about you
alec
have I absorbed anything lately
yeah
um
the main thing I
rewatched was the
the Matrix trilogy
of course
um
which is
I don't know
I've never been like hype on the Matrix
really
I always liked the first one in particular
but
the trilogy as a whole
is pretty weak I think
two and three
have you ever seen the whole trilogy
years and years and years ago
you probably only seen it once haven't you
the whole way through
I think I've only seen the first movie once
really
yeah the first one's worth the rewatch
it's one of those just like classics
um
that you can see that it's like inspired a lot of stuff
yeah
you ever seen The Matrix James
Nope
never seen
You hate Keanu Reeves though don't I hate
I have no idea what the
Matrix is a saw not a single clue about any of it well you might actually like it James
because it's really inspired by like anime anime yeah it literally is like it's inspired by ghosts
in the shell and a bunch of stuff like that I just never exposed to it what would you
rate the the whole series out of three stars if I have to give the trilogy yeah out three
stars yeah and you can't do three point or two point five or anything two stars
that's pretty high right in the middle well I mean it's kind of over the middle but
well you gave me this like bizarre like number I got nothing to work with okay five stars
out five stars 10 stars I would just put it right down the middle really because you don't
think it's bad because of how good the first one is and how bad the third one is and how
like mediocre the middle one is it does weird you think the third one is worse than the
second one it is worse but the third one is more entertaining right
That's a big difference
Because it's just like schlock
That reminds me though
I watched
Johnwick 3
Yeah you already said
Did I?
Yes
You already talked about that
You said you preferred it to the second one
Yeah literally last episode I think
That's crazy
I only know that
Because I watched it
This week
No
This is the thing about December
That I can't stand
For some reason out of all the months
December is the one that just goes by
in such a flash
that everything's a bit off
everything's wrong
yeah like
it's not going by
it feels like a rush
yeah
well I'm feeling rush
because I ain't bought
a single Christmas present
for nobody
nobody
nobody
I've left it
I've left it
and it's 15 days
oh James
one week
after this
it's one full week
till Christmas
James
what were you thinking
I know
but you know
I don't know
doesn't it just get
hiring after a while. It's just like
now, when you start to
really fear an event that's coming.
You fear Christmas. I didn't fear it, but it's more
like a nuisance. Like, it's just
now I've got to like arbitrarily do all these things that
if I wasn't like obligated to do
then I probably wouldn't have done. Like?
Because I'm getting offended now.
It sounds like you're saying, you know,
Cringmas is an obligation
It's hurting me
Cringmas is funny
Because there's like
Humour value to it
Isn't your whole family Christmas
About a humor thing
You're the most people
Everyone ever know
Who always gets joke gifts of Christmas
No matter what
So how is it like a not
Yeah
What do you mean my dad
Give me joke gifts and stuff?
No just explain your point
I don't get it
I don't know
What else do I have to elaborate on
It's just annoying
To have to buy gifts
constantly that's all what would you change if you can have it anywhere you like it
would you prefer christmas to not exist
no i think the enjoyment of christmas and the enjoyment people get out of it
justifies its existence but for you you'd prefer to not have to take part in any of it
yeah you're such a fucking what's he called grinch no not the green guy scrooge yeah
that no but why
forget the fucking gifts
do you not just like being one family
because that seems like the major thing
yet I don't have that bit
a poor line don't even know family anymore
so
I don't get that bit
it's a heavy thing that is
casually drop in the background
boom
just don't get it
because I that is the good bit
the family bit
yeah yeah
like
the gifts are annoying
I prefer to not receive any gifts
and not have to give any
no no no no no
the gift's important
like I
they're nice
but thinking about them beforehand
is difficult
and I hate that feeling
when everyone's watching you
open a present
I don't know no no no
did I ever mention that
I'm scared of that
like severely
because I always
I always just don't know how to react
yeah same
I think I'm gonna upset them
if I don't like smile
So it's just like, I feel, I feel really bad all the time.
And I try to like, with my family, it's just like, oh, that they give a present at a time.
I always just leave mine to the side to run the attentions away.
I just, like, slowly opening it, just be like, yay.
Because I don't like it.
I feel really bad about it.
It is quite a pressure.
You know?
Yeah, because there's an expectation to react a certain way based on what the gift is.
Because, like, to the person who chose the gift, to the person who's opening it.
Like it should be a, yeah, like a, you should be really excited about this
because I got you something I know you want.
Yeah.
So even if it is something you think is a bit poo-poo.
You got expectation to be like, oh, thank you so much.
Yeah.
See, that's the thing that I love about jar-quingmus is that it's not like that.
It's so unexpected.
That it is like that now.
Why?
Now that we've like delegated people
To get good presents every year
That's not difficult
Basically I'm trying to wear my way out
I'm getting people good presents
Because I'm a really bad gift giver
No you're not
Yeah like I have no idea what to get anyone ever
Do you want me to give you some ideas
Because then you'll look great
No you've given me two ideas for Alex
And both of them were like
Damn that's genius
Like you're an expert gift giver
I don't have like
No, no, that's, that's, I'm shit at everyone but us.
Like, if us, if us, I think it, like, in the fucking April, I'm like, yes, done it.
I've sorted our presents by, like, fucking May.
Yeah.
But my parents, I'm like, I don't, I don't know.
Parents are difficult, you know, like buying for a different generation.
Yeah.
That's, that's why, money.
Easiest thing.
Like, a money gift is so just like, it's like giving up in a way.
yeah just like well
I couldn't really think of anything to get you so
fucking buy it yourself
no but that's
like that it's quite nasty
that's what I mean
that's why
no but I want money more than anything
because it's just like I
there's things I want that are really expensive
so putting money to the side is like yes
no okay the worst thing is a check
oh for you
when you don't cash them
now that you can just use the app to cash them
it's not a problem
yeah but like dude just
go on your phone app
and send me
directly that people who use checks
don't have a phone app
that's not true
oh no no it's birthdays is when you get checks
all the time it's always birthdays
Christmas is normally not
it's like get a card and you've got 15 pounds in it
and like a happy birthday
happy Merry Christmas
it depends of the person
you know but I've never had checks
at Christmas because my family have always had
an anti-money wall for Christmas
how you shouldn't do that.
But now it's just like...
So your family agrees with what I just said then.
Kind of, but then they're now just like,
just give me money.
What about, is there a loophole in the sense
where you could buy gift cards?
Yeah.
Yes.
It's even...
Yeah, that's just as dumb.
No, I tell it's worse.
Yeah, because they're limited to one shop.
Yeah.
So it's just like, you're fucked.
Yeah, so instead of use your money freely,
use your money, let me shill a company for you to use money in.
It's like, yeah, they're actually pointless.
Like, let's say it's just going to give me money,
but instead he bought me Apple iTunes
voucher, the gift cards.
That would be really fucking bad.
Really bad.
Because you can really spend it.
Yeah.
You have no device to use it on.
That's why I just, oh, I can't stand that side of Christmas.
But then, the, the, the most joy I have at Christmas is buying gifts from a dog.
That's like, that's the most exciting.
same thing is seeing his reaction
because he hasn't got a fucking mind that thinks it
it's like the most pure. He can't be disappointed
yeah he's so pure. So there's just
no expectations so
even just interacting with a dog
like it makes it their best moment
of all time. Yeah, let alone
especially if that dog's called Paisley.
It's just like
I'm gonna I'm gonna spoil out of
everybody I'm probably going to spend the most money on my dog
by far because it's
just like the easiest and most fun
like I buy them
like a £2.50 bone.
There you go. Just throw it on the floor.
There you go, nibble on that. You're worth it as little slime.
I don't.
Like, over Christmas, I normally have the same budget for everyone.
You spend the same amount on your dog.
No, no, I spend more. I spend more.
But what could you possibly buy that's that expensive?
You should know this.
You've got a dog that tears stuff up.
What's it called? What's the fucking brand called?
That make indestructional toys.
Kong.
Kong. Kong stuff is.
really expensive and Gaius needs Kong so I buy Kong stuff and I buy loads of bones
and I just spoil him because he's my baby okay that's that's it's really what
matters of Christmas people are very generous towards their pets the pet market is huge
I'm not I don't get Billy a single fucking thing I'll buy Billy something this year
in your stead the thing with Billy is that because she she started
killing things at a very young age
she's just not interested in toys
her just bores her really quickly and she
wants to go and hunt something that's trying to get away
so billy's present to herself would just be like a bigger bird
a bigger catch yeah like a seagull are they like toy obsessed cats
then like there are toy obsessed dogs
I don't know yeah 100% definitely is
I don't really know much about cats and every time I learn new details
they just become kind of scarier
yeah they're like there's such an alien um uh beast to me they are like you can't it's really hard
to understand a cat's like emotions and the way they express themselves because there's no
there's no subtlety to a way a dog communicates like well it's it's not like a subtlety thing it's
they've developed with us you know they they have facial expressions cats yeah they've got
body like body language that while it doesn't like
directly line up with human body language
there are like parallels that
we like just innately
can read I reckon
or I'm just so used to having dogs
around I don't know
no they are
they are
it's like when a cat
goes to you it means it's gonna scratch
your eyeball out
so you avoid that
when a cat like wags its tear
or not like wags but like swishes it
or whatever there's like a really
distinct swish
is that mean they're annoyed
yes
I know the one you're on about
it's like a slow
last time I saw Billy I stroked her
and she looked like she was enjoying it
but she was doing that with her tail
no if it's sort of like
a flowing movement
I don't think that's anger
right
but if it's sort of like moving
like a snake
like yeah
whipping almost
that is really strange
that is anger
I say it's the opposite
from the cats I know
no if Billy's
doing that you stay clear because she might just lunge i've been lunged by billy a few
times and that is frightening it is frightening but then when she actually gets you it's really not
that bad yeah because they just try and claw they like cling with one claw and then it
gets like caught on your trouser leg yeah yeah yeah kind of off yeah or in the one case where
i almost dropped her her claw got caught in my neck in the flesh of my neck and it was just
stuck there and she was sort of panicking and I was like holding her leg and I was like
fuck I'm just gonna have to pull it yeah it's that animal thing when they get stuck in something
and they just yeah and cats all the time like they attack with their claw and then surprise
surprise the claw goes inside the thing they were attacking yeah and then they're like wait
wait yeah and dogs do when they get stuck in fences and stuff yeah freak out because it's just
what you do when it's just pure panic
Pure adrenaline panic, yeah, you just flail around like a fish out of water.
Let me out.
Uh, meow.
Meow.
Meow.
Oh.
I do want a cat.
They cute.
But on a snake first.
Hiss.
With that said, though, I'm afraid we're going to have to bounce off to some messages from the likes of either me,
myself or me.
Loozer.
Or Irene.

Welcome to the second
section of the JAR cast.
This is where we
go on to Reddit or maybe
even perhaps Twitter

to the JAR Media Reddit,
our slash job media
Yeah
Suggestion thread
For the questions
We go on there
We go
Who's this punk
What they say it
What they doing
We go on
Reply here
Want to know the
The first punk
We're gonna answer
Yeah please
Yeah
The Rumors on Fire
12 asks this
How would you rate
This decade
Shit
As we're rounding up
To 2020
running you very shortly um in terms of what just how would you rate that's all it they ask
it's pretty cool i think the the age that we're currently currently living in it's like a movie
from years ago where we're like we're not in the future future but it's pretty clear that
we're getting there yeah not any clearer now than it was last year
Yeah, but both of those years being this year and last year
are in the same decade.
20, 2011.
Different.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
We've made a lot of progress.
It's cool to see.
Like, like, the Tesla cyber truck.
Yeah, just things like that.
It just screams like...
Just everything Elon Musk and that whole company and all...
Yeah, but Apple as well.
Yeah.
Just taking these steps...
Well, if you put it in perspective, what was going on in 2009.
right now
Halo 3
ODST
It's a long time ago
Yeah
It is a long time ago
And in technology
It's it's millennia ago
Yeah
Like I was 15
So you guys would have been like 12
Yeah
That's how long ago it was
And that's one of the
Well I'm only 25 now
But in that decade
It's like so much
change
and rapid change too
like you sort of flat line
before then
like you're sort of on a gradual change
where it feels like it
like every year of school
kind of feels the same in a way
and it's just the way you're tested
that feels a bit different
but once you leave school
then each year like there's
these huge jumps it feels like
where a lot happens each year
but at the same time
it goes really
quickly so much shorter yeah
I feel like you said that before
about how it just time
changes the more of it
you experience yeah the longer you've been alive
I remember
it's just so vividly feeling like
summer just lasted forever
when I was younger
because that was the time when I used to plan to like
play through all the Final Fantasy 13
and I never did
just all sorts of silly shit like that
or even like young
like even way before then even
like in primary school
there's just that feeling of like
okay summer holidays has begun
like might as well be like a year's worth now
of not being at school
because that's how long it felt
and now by the time
I even realize that summer is here
it's already ending
and then it's like raining in autumn
I can't decide if it's a good or bad thing
I suppose it's a bit of both
yeah it's neither
That's nothing to do with this decade though
That's just getting older
Growing up
And getting older we are
Yeah but like in this
Yoda
Yeah
But like
Half of the decade
Has actually been
Documented with JAR
Yeah
No don't say it
2014
Did JAR begin
Somewhere around then
Or was it 2015
Don't say that please
I'll double check
Has it been five years
Well I started IHE in 2013
And
No fucking way
How we're only on 190 something episodes
It's only a burst of three years
Episode one was
11th of January
2016
Right but we were doing
JAR before then
Yeah I reckon Jarre start
in about 2014
and the cast itself
came around
16
Yeah 11th of January
2016
Four years
Yeah we're coming up to our fourth
Damn
No that's
Which means 2020 yeah
We'll be the
No just think
We're gonna run the whole election
Just think
If you look at a picture
Of the fast episode to us now
The change is actually just creepy
Just how much
Things are different now, how we have changed as people.
Are you talking about your beard?
Yes, that's it.
It's a weird thing, because, again, we're all in our 20s.
We've only lived for two decades.
Yeah, maybe ask us one with 50, and we can be like, yeah, this decade was a lot better than that one.
That one was like a week.
What I can say, though, is that this decade has been better than the 80s.
But you weren't alive in the 80s.
Yeah, but I know it was shit
No, it didn't
It wasn't shit
It was shit
It was shit
No honestly
It's the worst decade
That has existed
Wong
Okay
Lego
Loppy
1 2 345 has this to say
Hello jar
This one isn't a question
Just a thank you
I just wanted to give you a sincere thank you
For how much you have helped me recently
A little over one year ago
I had a surgery to
remove a tumor from my brain.
Needless to say, my recovery is
fucking sucked, but y'all were the one
consistent, sorry, the one
constant, my eyes are running a bit,
so I'm struggling to read, but y'all
were the one constant through all that mess.
I remember listening to the cast in my
hospital bed. I, of course, use
earbuds as to not scare the nurses by
hearing James' booming laugh
or Alex trying to convince us
everyone, to convince
everyone that there is such a thing as a
clitosaurus. I
really have never been this
success with the podcast before. Thank you.
And Merry Christmas, Casey.
Merry Christmas.
It's quite a harrowing story, Casey.
I'm glad to hear
you seem to have recovered from surgery.
Like, because, like, brain surgery,
that's some serious...
That's no...
It's no laughing matter.
No.
It kind of doesn't get more serious
than having to tinker with the brain.
But yeah,
I'm glad we could have...
assisted in her own small way.
Yeah, you're more than welcome.
But actually, do you want to explain what a clitoris is?
Clitosaurus.
Oh, there's a whole episode about it somewhere.
Just look on, it's got a very memorable thumbnail if you go on that one.
Not everyone knows what a clitosaurus looks like, though.
And I'm giving them the answers. Just search it.
I'm sure it's like the only result on YouTube.
You'd hope so, anyway.
I was going to say, you know what I'm going to do.
Yeah, so it's always very humbling to get feedback like that.
Because we just come and goof and gaff, and then when you get messages that are like,
well, that episode or this, like when I listen to this, or I've listened for a long time,
it's like help me through something or distract me for a little minute.
It's one of the best things about doing the cast.
Yeah.
Yeah, and it makes you, yeah, it makes you want to keep going.
it's cool
how about this one then from
Squitty 199
what are some of the group's most
anticipated games or movies of
2020
dun dun
there's a lot of stuff coming out
what is coming out
Animal Crossing
Yay
um
there's loads
cyberpunk
20, 2020
yeah, have you seen
what the
have you seen
the requirements for?
Speaking of
Cyberpunk
2020
that's got
Keanu Reeves
in it
and I saw
Johnwick 3
recently
have you seen
the specs
that was required
to play
cyberpunk
on Macs
no I haven't
on Mac
oh Max
Ultra
we're talking
like
we're talking
some
obscenely
high specs
like think of the
best computer
you can buy
you can need
better than that
it's actually
like
a NASA computer.
Yeah, it's fucking, it's like,
you couldn't play that game on Ultra
without spending at least £2,000 on a PC.
Ooh.
Yeah, listen to some of these.
Like, how good this potentially could be.
Cyberpunk 2077, Halo Infinite,
dying light two,
Ori and the Will of the West.
Final Fantasy 7 remake, Animal Crossing,
The Last of Us Part 2,
Doom Eternal.
Those are sort of the big ones,
Psychonauts 2,
odd world
soul storm
is the
from soft game meant to be coming out next year
not sure
I like how you mention Halo Infinite
as if it's going to be good like come on
just give up
and Doomitone the first one was crap
no but what I'm saying is
oh that's going to noise
I can just a minute
no the only good thing about that game is a soundtrack
and the way it's implemented in the game
like that's it
this isn't to the soundtrack
I'm not I'm not like crazy about Doom 2016
but I get why people like it so much
I get why people like it but I don't get why people love it
soundtrack
it's next level
because it was like especially around that time
it was when all the old shooters were like
they were just shit
so getting Doom like come back
and like
show how you can actually
modernize one of these old franchises and make it
you know work and be old and new at the same time
it's kind of yeah I would never say it's a bad game it's just not for me
yeah yeah I'd agree with that pretty much of that list
no if you honestly put those games that you mentioned like no
the year does not have potential you're that's actually just so crazy
everything I just said no listen Halo you know that it could be shit
We've not even seen gameplay
We know it could be shit
Like honest
Well yeah I'm not saying that that one in particular
It's a big release though
And everyone's gonna play
Sipunk's gonna be good
Animal Crosston's gonna be good
I reckon dying light 2 is gonna be good
Yeah
Final Fantasy 7 is probably gonna be good
Yeah I'd hope so
The next call of duty is gonna be good
Yeah so I think
What if they remake black ops now
Don't don't know that
Oh damn
That means they can kickstart zombies remade
From the beginning again
World at War remit
No, they fucked out with World War II
They did, fucking hell
So my most anticipated though
Is probably that ORI sequel
Like I really liked the first one
Really? Yeah, and I want
More than anything, I want some new
Some new music from
Gareth Cocker I think is called
Coker. He's also
He's really good.
But yeah, it's all too far away for me to be like hype at the moment.
Yep.
I don't really get hype at the games.
Cyberpunk sounds cool.
I'm not going to play it.
In terms of films, there is, I don't know.
I don't know what's coming out in regards.
In terms of films, Minions, the Rise of Gru looks pretty sick.
Okay, nice.
Peter Rabbit 2, The Runaway.
Oh, that's got potential.
uh scoob
scoob
that looks incredible uh do little with robert downy junior
doctor do little rebuild is that that looks incredible
is that robert downy junior's first like movie since
him leaving maybe
oh okay there's one at least
um doon
doon yeah it's like a sci-fi
um movie by the guided
blade round of 2049
well they
uh
like prisoners
and all those movies
he's a good director
why you're shaking your head
fast and furious
fast and furious nine
oh man
it's next year that's gonna be awful
yep
can dude
because Cardi B's in it
mainly
Sonic the Headshog movie
that would be crap
all of this shit
looks awful
honestly
um
Ghostbusters afterlife
I watched the
trailer for that um today what do you think because i watched it yesterday and was a bit like what i
sort of rolled my eyes it's just like the force awakens yeah but it's like
the tone seems a bit strange yeah but producers just like latch onto things it's weird
like it didn't feel like it actually represented the movie as much as it was just like
designed for the trailer well it was designed to show that the kid
from Stranger Things is in another
like 80s thing. Yeah.
So people are going to like it.
Yeah. And like
It's weird.
A nostalgia cow just keeps on going
and they're not going to stop.
Yeah, that kid's career is
absolutely made. I was thinking about that.
Just those kids being in Stranger Things
has given them
a bigger career boost than like
many other
franchises or properties
would. Like
they've probably boomed more than like
like Daisy Ridley
from being in Star Wars
yeah I'd say they have definitely
yeah think about it like
the Stranger Things girl
she's like a phenomenon what's her name
13 I don't know what the actor's
name is she's called 11
this is what's so confusing
to me because there are 13 episodes
I think of Stranger Things
each season but then there's also another
Netflix show called 13 reasons why
and the character's
name is 11 so it's just all this number shit and my brain can't handle it i'm afraid you wouldn't
be good in accounts what about there's a new james bond movie yeah i've never been like that previous
the previous multiple have just been so yeah well since casino royale they've not been like
they just gradually i say casino royale is a great movie mm-hmm like a fantastic movie all the rest with
Daniel Craig after that
just get worse and worse
I wouldn't say worse and worse
No they do
The one right after it is terrible
But then Skyfall
Quantum of Solis
You're forgetting Quantum of Solis
And then Skyfews
That's the one directly after
Casino Royale
I forgot about Contam Solis
That was made during those
It's terrible
Strikes
Yeah
And then you got Skyfall
Which wasn't bad
But like it wasn't
Casino Oil basically
Skyful was like
It was a really reactionary
to like
Hollywood trends at the time
with like the kind of dark night clear like Nolan inspiration stuff that was going on
and the Adele intro so casino oil because casino oil though is so good yeah that movie is awesome
what about Ryan Reynolds in free guy is that about it's about an MPC being an
MPC do you know how long he's wanted to get that movie made
really yeah it's actually it's like a passion project of his seriously i heard about his idea for
it years ago oh so it's his idea i didn't know that yeah i think so or someone's idea that he
heard and was like that's awesome i want to do it but i've heard about that idea
i had definitely heard about it like five years ago i'm not sure if that um premise is so
great an idea to be honest it sounds more like uh it sounds like uh it sounds like
a short. Yeah, it sounds like a Black Mirror episode, maybe, at the very best. I don't know about a feature
film with Ryan Reynolds playing like a, whatever, we'll see. We'll see. We'll see. There isn't
much, like, honestly, I just wait for other people to start just talking about, because
there is so much shit coming out now. You need to rely on everyone, like on social media to kind of
Word of mouth.
Yeah.
Spread what is good and what isn't.
Like, it takes a while sometimes.
So much just superhero shit.
But that's just, that's subjective stuff.
You might not be shit.
Listen to just the superhero movies that are listed here.
Black Widow, Wonder Woman, 1984,
Ghostbusters doesn't really count.
Birds of Prey, the new mutants.
uh the eternals um and i think bloodshot does that count point is there's a lot of them
invisible the invisible man is that like a superior venom two for real yep was venom two last year
2018 it was the year before 20 2018 was it last year 2018 yeah that sounds right
right?
Yeah
But yeah
That film was shit
I don't even bother
Like really
Getting anticipated
For things in the same way anymore
I like just waiting
And just getting it
When I get it
You know
Yeah
It's just you're just
guaranteed
Some level of disappointment
Usually
Most of the time
Yeah
Okay
This is a call of duty
what about this one then from
James G1 412 says this
What is any of your opinions on having editors to edit YouTube videos
Do you think it ruins the authenticity and style of that person's channel
And defeats the purpose of it being your channel and removes the fun
Or do you believe it is to be a good help?
Thanks for the yogs broders
I think it
It depends on the content
Yeah
It depends...
If, let's say...
If someone's content relies heavily on, like, the way they edit and their humour,
if you make someone else edit it, it will lose that.
That's gone.
Like, I don't think you could hire an editor and, like...
Yeah, I've struggled with the concept before,
because I've thought about it,
just for the...
To try and get some things out a bit faster,
but I always, always, um...
Like, retreat and can't commit to the idea,
because so much of
the fun and the humor of it to me
is the way you choose to present it on that timeline
like it is where a lot of the personality shines through
with what I like to make anyway
but there are ways like
when you're making something like the JARCast each week
there's a certain way it's presented
sure there are sometimes skits at the beginning
there's little bits of editing here and there in the cast
but at the end of the day it's still the same thing
and you probably could pay someone
to put together the JARCast fairly easily
and I don't think that would be considered really weird
or would ruin anything to be honest
because we've had...
Apart for late...
Three of the four of us on the cast have edited it
and there are minor differences
and obviously in the way just through sheer experience
different levels of experience
but it's still fairly consistent
in the end of the day.
Yeah, it does depend on how bespoke each video is, I think.
If you have like a series, it's very common for like let's players who upload a lot to sort of farm out the editing process and all the big companies and all the biggest channels like YouTube and watch Mojo and all that and they all have editors and whatnot.
It's an interesting question though.
I just say it just depends on YouTuber.
Like one of the big YouTubers I like is a streamer, but he does his own stuff and it takes him like too much.
wants to make a video because it's his stuff yeah you got to you got to sort of choose yeah there's
always got to be um because um yMS adam um he has an editor um but the way he does it is he's got
his like big project that he'll edit himself but just the quick videos he puts out he has them
edited by his editor which i think's a good way to work around like you're not really losing
much when it's just like short little reviews but the big main meaty stuff
is still like coming from him
It should have been like how he did it when he became popular
Yeah
So it stayed the same
Yeah
Queen of Dirt as one for us
Did you boys make Christmas lists when you were young
If so what's the most outlandish thing you asked for
I definitely made Christmas list
I was a Christmas leg kind of kid
I didn't know if I was
I like to like plan out because I like
I liked the Argos catalog
I liked the Lego
catalogue
I loved catalogs
and I'd look through them
and I'd like figure out
and make the perfect list
I loved doing that kind of shit
I did that as well of the Argos catalog
who didn't do the Argos catalog
that was like the most fun
fun things you didn't look at it all year
but then Christmas it was just like
yes
yes
and you just like go through and fucking
just write things down
because it looks cool and you want it
I don't think I was really
like that
even though I knew most of the things on the list
would not be bought for me
so it was like compiling a list
and then making an even smaller list of that list
to try and like decipher
okay if I could only have one thing from this list
Alex quality controlling his own list
I've always been like that
like methodical with
stupid things like that
but as far as um
outlandish things i've asked for
i feel like just because of our parents
like we just knew what was within the realms of reality after a certain point
that we we just
once you figure out the boundaries
and you just know there's no chance of it going outside them
then i just kind of didn't bother to push them anymore
but i i don't think there's anything outlandish i've really wanted
like when you're a kid what is something outlandish you could want a gun i would say like if your
eight-year-old came up to you and was like i really want a an uh an iphone a macbook pro
yeah with the best everything it'll only be about four thousand pounds
all right no yeah that's what you say to that you don't give an eight-year-old something
that's worth that much that much cash no my my my my my my my my my my list
was always one game.
Like that, my Christmas present would resolve one game.
One more than one game.
Black Ops.
I was ashamed to admit of liking video games,
so I would try not to ask for video games.
Not from mum and dad.
You didn't care about asking for gifts from the games from them.
Well, sometimes I did.
Do you know how bad I felt when we went to go get the Force Awakens on We?
People forget how uncool Star Wars was at that time.
Yeah.
Star Wars was not cool.
Especially on Wii.
Yeah, it was on Wii.
It was like, fucking second hand.
Yeah.
Yeah, like, people think Star Wars fans have it bad now.
At least you've got stuff to talk about.
Yeah, that was the dark age.
Yeah, it was like, what, the Clone Wars movie.
That's what we had.
with rot to the hurt
yeah everyone remembers that one
it's fond in my
oh dear
and I remember it was really weird when that film came out
that Clone Wars movie because
I must have been about
year eight or something
year eight year nine
and like all the boys
in like my classes
had seen it but everyone like made excuses
to why they see it they saw it
really yeah
Because it was that lame.
Because it was like, yeah, I had to go of my brother to see it, whatever.
When it's like, you knew deep down, everyone wanted to see it just for the hope of maybe getting some good Star Wars thing.
And then you actually just, like, sit there for a few hours watching, join together episodes.
Yeah.
Every time you mention that show, though, like, there's just someone that just comes on in with their, like, the prepared paragraphs of like, right, this is why the Climb Wars is, and you're wrong about it.
Sorry, but no.
I cannot and I will not and I went further than most to even test it.
I was like you know what I'll give it a chance that me more than anyone is gonna like some style of shit
you got to realize it gets good after episode 26 when they really thought to develop the
characters I try I tried okay I try also the way the show is structured like what the
fuck is the deal with that yeah very strange makes no sense the 2d one though is pretty
badass the yeah I remember the 2d one being cool I can't I remember it's
But just a way better art style, though, than the 3D one.
The 3D one was so...
General Grievous was, like, really cool in particular in that Clone Wars 2D one.
And I was like, whoa, if this what...
Is this what the character's going to be like in a Revenge of the Sith?
When that comes out in a few months?
And I was like, so excited.
And I convinced myself that he was cool when I watched the movie.
Yeah.
He's so bad.
Ugh.
No, he's cool.
What about this?
Hysteria 55, we can end on this one.
Have you, have you's ever considered doing a podcast, hi?
I think it would be funny, Alex and Jim High and James just watching those two baked retas chat, absolute shit, lull.
High on what? I mean, I'm always high on life.
Yeah, we all are.
That's the only thing that I have partaken.
Let's just put it this way.
It's been thought about, but they know I'd get out.
There's been plenty of content on jar media
that has been made under the influence of drugs.
Mostly alcohol.
Oh, yeah.
Well, not for me.
No, you've even done a few
In that period where it was just you and me doing them
I think we drank some whiskey on one of those
Yes, but I wasn't under the influence
Because I was fine
We were talking like plastered on the seat
Just like fucked
Yeah, plastered
Yeah
And that's not happened on any of our cast
But like even if you go back to some of the early ones
Like
They come across as if we are on something
Especially me
yeah you were really
I've always been like that though
people always like they don't
they think I'm on something all the time
even when I'm like not
I would straight up say that I can't tell the difference
that's exactly what I mean
I fucking cannot tell a difference
I can walk in and just be like
no that's yeah
I can't tell the difference either
I can't I don't know if it's like a
good or bad thing
really you just
it means that it's like
I'm pretty level headed then as a
No, it's like you say some really extreme stuff, but then next week when we've just gone out for me, you'll say something worse.
I'm just like...
It's not, I wouldn't say it's about saying like extreme stuff.
It's more just like...
Not extreme, but isn't really...
Things I find funny.
Yes.
Basically.
No, but there's also things like goofball things.
Like the time I thought you were under the influence of something.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sandy, go on the screen now.
Sandy, get here.
We need you a...
And...
Sorry, you were, like, tripping over tables and, like, stumbling around, just looking.
That was that, that was one of those, like, self-fulfilling prophecies where everyone around you was just saying, are you on something right now?
Nobody was saying that, though.
No, but I could, like, I could tell everyone was thinking that, and I was like, okay, let's act normal.
And through trying to act normal, it just made it so much weirder and more suspicious.
I mean, I was, I was trying to make it kind of obvious that I was thinking, like, are you drunk or what?
I hadn't touched anything
I was completely sober
yeah that was weird
and like when
you went to like find the
heaps of dessert that we'd ordered
from deliveroo
yeah
and like
you picked up the phone and you were like
yes
and I was like
what the fuck is I want this guy right now
Yeah, because they called you
Because they couldn't find the Airbnb
We were staying in
Yeah, that was just
Ugh
The Airbnb's that had beds
That were like made out of cardboard
No, it was more like cement
Yeah
They were the worst
Anyway, it could happen
Maybe it already has
It definitely already has
But I don't think anyone
would be able to pinpoint them
honestly was like
we've done so many weird ones like an episode
I revisited lately
was you remember that episode we did ages ago
where I was like lying on the floor
for the entire episode face down
yeah
like there's just some weird shit we've done
and yeah and it's
I don't think we'd ever do
a podcast where we're just like
completely wiped out on
alcohol
weed or anything
yeah because there's a
there is a limit where it stops sort of being
fun for
it's nice when it's just like a
social lubricant
that was that Joe Rogan clip you showed me
where he's trying he's like
he enters the
the beyond realm
he must have eaten like some edible or something
because but like he does that thing
where he starts talking and then it just keeps
going yeah he forgot what he
even started saying yeah but he like thinks he still knows yeah and then he like closes off
the paragraph it's just like just a paragraph yeah connecting yeah segments of a sentence
some of the like huge podcasts like Joe Rogan as much as I like the I like the show a lot
yeah um there are some quirks like like that sometimes where it's like okay you yeah they're
You got too fucked up.
You just, you simply got too fucked up for this right now.
You drunk a little bit too much whiskeys, ate too many goddamn edibles, and you're just too fucked up.
You don't even know what you're talking about anymore.
The fucking Alex Jones one.
But I'm pretty sure they had none of it.
Great.
I like those ones.
But another thing that Bogas does is they like just watch YouTube videos lots.
Like within the show, they like put on and like refer to clips and stuff, which.
can get annoying after a while, especially if you're just listening.
It would be like if we right now just pulled up like,
oh, did you see that Tabascus video?
And we just sat there watching a Tabascus video for like eight minutes.
With like a bit of commentary in it.
Yeah, it's not good for an audio point of view at all.
Do they like put it on the video though?
Yeah, it's in the episode.
I've seen a few podcasts that do that sort of thing sometimes.
Yeah, the H3 one does that, I'm pretty sure.
yeah that's true yeah i'm i'm not like up to date or anything on that
that one i'm not to date on any podcast there was like a huge controversy lately
yeah you see that canceling canceling cancel h3 h3 is
oh yeah he said he said k-pop he's over party that said k-pop was he didn't like it
and the stands got annoyed yeah i didn't see the original clip i honestly don't give a fuck
no i didn't uh what i was like h3 h3 h3 is over party what the fuck
I was expecting it to be something
actually scandalous and then I was like
whatever it's just some shitty son I saw what it was
about I was like okay thank you there's a few
there's a few of those a year
for the H2 podcast I swear
yeah it's like every
thing that gets popular enough
like it will just start
because if you're making something so often
so frequently
and you have that many eyes on it
like you're going to piss people off
yeah especially like
Ethan of H3
never seems to like censor himself
and yeah
well yeah anyone who's followed H3 for a while
knows like they've had so many controversies
yeah so many like dramatic things
their whole
shtick is to critic
is to criticise popular things basically
that's what they started off doing
yeah
so you can't get angry when they do it
about your thing
you know what I'm saying
whatever I know nothing about it
so I can't really say
yeah saying whatever bro
I don't even care bro
Let's just move on, bro.
Bless you, with that said, with that sneezed.
Oh, being a sucks.
We're going to disappear for a whole seven days, baby.
Thanks for watching this episode of the Jars.
You see how in the podcast.
