Okay, good afternoon, morning, even on night, ladies and you know.

Finish your sentence, boy.
I have to, you know, it's been a while since I've introed the cast, so I need to have, like...
It has.
Do you know, whenever I get my sinuses get, like, inflamed from, like, an illness, sorry.
The outside is fine, but the inside, the inside, so there's, like, a layer of, with,
dead scabby skin on the inside and I can only clear it by whipping the skin out on the
inside. Oh that's lush. It's the only way to stop the inflame. I was speaking of stuff inside
nose I've got to I've got to shave my nostrils now like regularly. Wait what? Do you
not just pull them out? Otherwise that hurts man. Oh my god that's the worst thing.
What do you mean? But he just just grabbed me a tink. Yeah with my fingers because you just
get it there what you get it there then you just use that to flick it and then go
ow no that's like eye-wateringly painful they don't hurt at all
there's no pain to ripping your heart your your nerves aren't working yeah there is
that's one of the most acute paint that's why really yeah I do feel fun to be fair
if I'm at work it's just like that that's crazy that's horrible I got like a nose hair
but I've never had to cut my nostril hair really yeah I've never had to cut my nostril hair
because I'll just pull it out at work I'll just be like you know I'm waiting for this thing to
and I'll just do the trim.
I'll do it like once every two weeks and it's fine.
That's crazy, man.
That's horrible.
He's a lighter.
No, I don't.
Let's not bring up lighters.
Why?
I've got a lighter.
Oh, no.
I work.
Because I have to burn off the ends of this cable so it's not frayed.
I burn it, but then I burn it enough so it catches fire
and then I just let it catch fire and see what it does.
Nice.
Number one victory, Roy.
So I guess I'm your host, Alex, joined by Jim and James.
I'll be your host, Alex.
Why don't you do an intro?
I just did.
No, do an intro.
Do an intro.
We're not doing this again, where we all just take turns doing it.
Yeah, we do three intros every fucking episode.
Yeah, we don't need to.
Welcome to the J-Media JARCast, where James is joined by,
his host, Alex.
You know what?
I found out that my hair on this side
is significantly bigger
than there on this side.
I've got lopsided hair.
No, because there's this cheat
called fucking hats, right?
And when you've got hats,
you can cover your shit-looking hair.
But as me,
I don't have the privilege
of wearing a hat
because my other cast members
always wear hats.
As you.
You don't even own a hat.
I do.
Named two.
You rarely wear hats, bro.
I'm not allowed because YouTube always wear them.
No, you just got to coordinate colors.
This isn't just me.
This has been backed up by someone else.
So, like, this isn't just me being angry.
No, so it's 2V2.
Yeah, it's 2V true.
And they agree with me and that their woman,
so in their opinion, is significantly more valuable than ours.
Oh my God.
But if you've only got a grey hat, then just say,
I'm wearing a grey hat to them.
Give me your grey hat then?
Let me never have that issue.
See, you don't have a hat.
You just want Alex's hat.
No, I do.
I do.
I have a grey be in.
You just got the white one back.
Yeah.
The only time I've seen you in a hat is when you took Alex's.
Or it's the call of duty hat.
We don't have that hat.
Oh, we do.
Oh, we do.
Number one, Victor.
I need to sort this hell out.
Well, we need to sort out what's happening on the Jarm Media Posidat right now.
Yeah.
Because before we get too deep into the show,
We need to shout out those patrons over at the Jail Media patron.
They make the audio versions possible and get their patron names read out on the first or second week of each month.
What a funny little larp that is.
Isn't that right?
Yeah, a larp.
Funny names like Bougar Nick and Bougar Rick and Bougar Dick.
You guys got any input there?
No.
Just leave it at that.
the jar media patrons I'd say love is a bit far I'd I'd say love you've got to earn love
yeah you've got to earn love and only sandy tears get love anything below the more money you
give us the more will love you I'm gonna just just for old time's sake I just want to
I just want to assign everyone like an old name oh no from the collection I'm thinking for
James
hmm
oh there are some really good ones here
yeah James is a lot
oh man really good ones
maybe Jay Diller
J J J.J Diller
that's not mine that was the Jim
J J J J Diller was Jim
No no that was you man
no that was you that's how you would
introduce yourself
but you know J J J Diller is a person
doesn't matter
okay you're just J Diller then
I'm pretty sure J Diller is a person
okay fine
sausage crumbler then
then works that's fine you can be sausage crumbler
that better i've got i've actually got i do want to mention sausages
oh my god can i mention sausages okay
should we go into that in a bit
what do you mean like what's that whole thing
it's gonna blow your mind it's not whole thing
do it after house keep you know no no it's not it's a simple case of um have you
have you ever seen those apple bramly pork sausages from um
tesco um it rings a bell
I don't think they gave me diarrhea
they showed gave me diarrhea
how many did you have did you cook them
I kept them pot I cook sausages poply
because sausages you never
ever have a sausage round
round
I thought they're always around
because you're not
yes you're coming off because
you can cook the inside
spella then you have a better
cooked sausage
yes and they split them
and you put it in like a sandwich
no well yes I put them
in a sandwich but when you're cooking them you want to split them
you cook it when it's in half yeah yeah you get like you don't need to do that
10 minutes into the cook and then you cut them in half then you cut them down the middle
then you put them face down cook the inside is better I suppose you can but no
I mean but basically gave me gave me diarrhea and they're the single worst
sausages I've ever tasted you know like the frozen bags of like the most generic cheap
sausages yes taste significantly better than these sausages
Wow.
That the apple chunks was so big, they take, they like the size you'd find in an apple pie.
So you'd be eating a sausage and then you just chew this huge chunk of apple.
Maybe you got a bad batch.
But it gave me diet, it gave me food poisoning basically and I've never had food poisoning until they ate these fucking sausages.
Oh wow.
How bad?
How bad was the poisoning?
Well, I had to shit.
My poo was quite liquidy and I was pooing a lot.
Did you feel quite ill then?
Were you getting the...
I was getting the bubbles.
And then I was shitting myself.
Yeah.
Damn.
And I'm disappointed, man.
Yeah.
And I wasted them on good bread as well.
So yeah, if you're ever in the shops, and you'll notice, you'll notice from now on, in the Tesco final section, everything will be sold out.
There'll be fucking shit tons of them.
On, on Tesco's website, guess how many reviews.
Guess how many stars they have?
How many?
Four.
Two.
They have two stars.
Five hundred reviews.
Wow.
They were now only shit, never buy them.
Does it all the reviews say gave me diarrhea?
Probably, I never looked, but it's been believable.
That's disgusting, and I'm sorry for you.
But you've got to buy them now because I talked about it.
Well, I guess Jim has less to choose from, but I guess you can be gamer, Jim?
Ugh.
What?
Fine, you can be audio jungle Jim.
I quite like that one.
Jamie's not a junglist, though.
You're not a junglist?
An audio jungle.
No, you're not a jungleist.
Okay.
A jungleist.
I'm not a jungleist.
That's fine.
I never claimed to be.
So why are you audio jungle gym?
Because audio jungle, audio jungle.
Where's that come from?
Audio jungle.
What's the law of audio jungle?
Oh my God.
What?
Dude, this is like eight years old.
I have no idea about the audio jungle law.
Audio jungle.
What's that?
Repeating it doesn't help me understand what I.
it is.
Alex,
lay a beat down.
Da-na-na-na-na-na-da-da-da-na-da-na-da-na-da-a-na-da-a-na-da-a-aud-a-aud-o-dun-a-aud-a-old.
That answers it for you.
That you just doesn't do anything.
Well, I don't think we could have explained it any more clearly.
Well, we can explain it in the housekeeping segment because we've got to get moving because
I got some stuff we've got to talk about, man.
Oh.
Stuff is...
There is movement.
Right.
There is inertia.
Inertia.
And we'll talk about that in a moment.
But first we could do the housekeeping segment
where we round out of some of the conversations
from the previous episode.
Just like this interesting tip bit from Marcus Britt
2896.
Great to see Duck Fat Danny return for the cast.
Yeah.
James?
What's the law with that one?
I was even when you guys knew what that meant
because I was doing some Googling and there's just nothing.
I think it's...
There's nothing, yeah.
What's that one?
I won't go into it.
We've already done the whole audio jungle gym thing.
Duck fat Danny?
Yeah.
Or was that like...
Made a return.
A rival website.
Last episode.
Duck fat Danny.
Audio jungle.
Duck fat.
Duck fat Danny.
Duck fat Daniel.
Oh, my ear hurt
Ah
Oh
Hello Poeo 7EQ
Says
With the time code
I swear sometimes
I'm convinced
James is a cyborg
Who has this built-in
Automatic Disagree button
It just goes at random
And the time code
Was when
It was when I was telling
The Max story
And I was like
Yeah some of the funniest
moments are from when
Max was on
And you're like no one
No no
No come on
Come on
Come on, no, no, no, no, no.
Think of actually the funniest moments.
They were conversations that had nothing to do with Max.
You're thinking of conversations right now that are funny we've had on this cast, nothing to do with Max.
But I think you're underestimating how many funny Max moments there were as well.
There was a few, but we've had more funny moments without him.
Why are you shitting on Max?
I'm not. I love Max. I love Max.
But I'm just, you're chatting shit.
I'm not.
Because there's been more better.
moments without strange hill to die
I'm not dying on this hill
I'm just saying no but out of
everyone every time he'd do something crazy
you would have the biggest
loving reaction to what he's doing
yeah because he's a dumb fucking huge
dog that was just a cute
exactly
but I'm very upset at Elliot
4927 who said
I thought the comment about
dream was bad right
comparing me to dream
you don't look anything like dream
this guy says
People said Alex looks like Dream,
but he's kind of rocking the Cueble Cop aesthetic this episode.
Whoa.
Must be fine.
I'd say you are more Cueblo than Dream.
No, come on.
No, come on.
You're looking at this negatively.
Dream is in drama because he's possibly a groomer.
Cueble Cop is cringy because he's trying to make an AI himself.
Which one would you rather be called?
The groomer or the AI cringer?
about their looks, right?
Like, who they are.
Yeah, just because someone looks like Boris Johnson doesn't mean they are.
Yeah, but so you'd rather look like Dream?
Um, well, I don't get to control it.
Dream looks like me.
Everyone keeps saying, he's younger than me.
They don't look anything alike just because you've got curly hair.
Yeah, you don't look like Dream.
Well, good.
And you a little bit, maybe.
You just have curly hair.
Only from certain angles.
You have curly hair and you wear hats.
That's like the only combable.
do you sing like dream
give me a beat
and maybe I'll let you know
listen
if
if you are dream
then what is the point of the mask is
only he would know the answer
because then the fact is
quite like that parody song
huh
where it's like
oh man
how does the chorus go
that's what the point of the mask is
how does it start again
whatever man everyone knows who I don't know it's just making fun of him that's all okay
whatever man but the point of the mask is because he he is ugly um I guess it was like a
confidence thing and then he got all the confidence to be crazy when he took the
crazy on stage he went mask off yeah he went mask off and went crazy on stage so uh
earlier 8082 said just ran into Jim James and Rubin playing Battlefield 1 on
he see. Ruben got in my plane and I
crashed it, very epic. Can you confirm if this happened?
It did happen. It did happen because apparently I have a
really obvious name in games.
CASA something? Casso 35, which is my business.
So if you see CASA. You've got that branding
going on, nice. Yeah, I'm internationally known. I'm a world
criminal. This is the second time
though, James has been recognised on Battlefield 1
like a dead 10 year old game. Oh, to sell that game.
Yeah, but I think it goes to show
Jowlings have taste
Yeah
You know, not playing Battlefield 5
Not playing Battlefield 20
Not playing Monofer 3
Not playing Mono Warfare 3
Playing Battlefield 1
The only good one
Ooh
Throwing shade at the battlefield
Uh
Dealen 8664
So could you guys share
Which CBD products you use
Recently been hit with some anxiety
For the first time in my life
Which has ruined my sleep
And not really too happy
About taking propranol
bear bear
um
man up
yeah
no
smoke
and stogie and go to the gym
um that
that's a joke answer
okay
I order whatever
CBD gummies I can get on
Amazon
I don't I don't look
it's just
this looks like a decent
like you look at the price
like products that are gonna have
a tiny amount of CBD
are going to be really cheap
yeah look for 30 to 40 pound
bottle of gummies
just eat them
I eat them every day
then I always
it's the only way I sleep
so I just buy gummies and eat gummies
I get on like Amazon subscribe and save
like the
I've got on subscribe and save as well
like 2030 MG
of CBD
two of those
one at night
yeah I'll have two of those guys
before I go sleep sometimes
not every night though
just if I fancy like a really good
sleep and you wake up like
that was a deep sleep
what are you crazy
you're your damn mind
I tried this like
medication yesterday for
Restless Leg
Syndrome?
O-L.S.
Boing, boing, bo-in.
It's supposed to...
It's like a medication that can also
be used as like sleeping medication.
I don't think what we do
is Restless Leg Syndrome.
What is it then?
RLS is like in, you don't control.
Like when I...
It's like this.
Like this, I'm doing this.
I'm choosing to do this because of anxiety.
It's why I always do it.
Restless leg is no matter what you do
what you lay down or sit down
you feel insanely uncomfortable
because your legs are like
micro moving
it's a whole fine condition
where you basically can't ever control it
yeah restless leg is
because I did some reading on it
because throughout my like
work life people have always been like
can you stop doing that because people
feel it yeah
um
anxious energy
it's like a nervous energy
but
it's not
Restless Leg Syndrome that is something totally different where it's it's not necessarily like leg bouncing
It's like you you your one might be like you have to stretch your leg up
Mm. You know it's it's like a different thing. Well, I wouldn't have it again. I didn't do anything to me
Oh yeah might be because you don't have restless legs. Yeah, but it didn't make me tired either in fact it made me jazzed
Maybe it wasn't really what I thought it was. Yeah, it was like an amphetamine. Yeah
Adororah less is quite half-hying you joked um going back to the CBD thing about like
just smoke a joint and go to the gym but exercise is really good for sleeping yeah that as well
yeah that's I mean it is partly true yeah in fact I think it's more true like it's much more
true because like I've been slacking up and stuff like that but I've been hiking again recently
yeah when it's sleep so much better when it comes to um
mental health i think nine times out of ten medication shouldn't be in any form shouldn't be your
go to it should be turns what you have there yeah yeah but that's why i say nine times out of ten
we're like the most general mental health um issues yeah being like anxiety depression the the
less extreme versions of those which will be more widespread
can be cured far easier with activity and doing things specifically there is a tendency
especially in the u.s it's like yeah it's a medicate just go straight instead of seeing it as like
one of many options you can try it's like go to start there um yeah some of some of their like um
um ADHD medication is like crazy in America
just giving people like math basically
yeah it's just straight up
um
got them hooked but uh crams
9745 said what's with all the bleeping lately
as a listener it can honestly be really frustrating
to listen to you guys laugh at something i'm not allowed to hear
could we maybe get unedited versions on the patreon
i'm not a fan of exclusive pay content but it would be better than nothing
um the truth is about 80% of the time where something is beeped
it's like nothing
and it's just we find it funny to say
beep that
and then the other times it's like something that actually
no one can hear
right
you're making it out
I don't get bleeped
it's not me it's not me it's not me
you had to get bleep last episode
wasn't me
this is the thing you're making it out
you're making it out as if I say
some horrible things it's not that
I don't
I just say things that push
They're not safe for work
Yeah you say things that aren't safe for work
Can maybe be too real
And break the
The terms of service
Yeah
Just flagrantly political like just for no reason
There's no no no no no no no no no no not
Not true
Not true
I'm not not
I'm not not
Just not
Yeah
I'm like the self-insert character of JAR
where those beeps is that anyone's opinion
they can self-insert it.
Pick your own adventure.
Yeah, so those beeps are like your little
intractive. Our videos are intractive.
Radical light, really boring, moderate.
Why am I radical right?
Because that's not James.
Everyone has to be extremes.
Yeah.
I'm not...
I would argue James is more right-wing.
No, what?
He's actually so radically left-wing.
he's become radically working.
No, that's not true.
Not true at all, put those words in my mouth.
We're all just on a circle, like, going round through life.
I've not.
My stance has not changed in years.
Yeah, has.
Okay, it's gone, I've been to become a bit more extreme.
But, I'm in the same ballpark, okay?
I'm just further away.
Yeah.
In fact, you've gone into the neighboring ballpark.
It's like a different sport now.
It's not ball anymore.
Yeah.
Something else.
The thing is, my true, my political opinions are not known to anybody.
Even yourself.
I don't know if you have political opinion.
Why wouldn't I?
What would you mean?
I think what you want is violence and it doesn't matter what, like, what the institution that you're within is.
you as a person just seek
violence. Chaos.
Chaos, yes.
Destruction.
Like,
you're the fucking Joker.
Yeah.
Plug him into any society
and he just can't function.
He needs to break it down and start a new one.
Hey,
hey, hey, hey.
Go on, do your Joker laugh.
I'm the Joker.
That segment went a bit longer than I was.
expecting but I'm rounding it off with this one from window enough. Hi fellas, after hearing you
describe the Welsh family that had Max, I thought I'd chime in because I was born in Pembrokeshire,
where I remember James saying that his family reside. I've lived here for 22 years and I reckon
it's worth noting that Pems is actually infamously known as Little England or Little England beyond
Wales. This is because a vast majority that live here are either pretty much English or they just
sound very, very English. We have no Welsh accents to speak
for the most part, and only a tiny percentage
speak Welsh. I'm well aware of
the sort of people you describe with your family members
and Jamie was right when he said they probably don't
like people outside of their immediate community.
What I will say is that
Pembrokeshire really isn't that deep internationalism
and a lot of us only rins the English on a superficial level.
In fact, Pembrokeshire is rammed full of Tories
and our main industry is tourism.
So you can imagine how intertwine the English are
with our culture. We don't all hate the English
and the sort of racist farmers who live in towns
with shitty broadband that you describe
are very much in the minority.
TLDR, come to Pembrokeshire
and spend your English money in our towns.
Don't buy a holiday home though
because second homes have destroyed
our housing market.
I promise we are nice here. Cheers.
You don't have to explain yourself.
Yeah, you're Welsh.
I thought that explains everything.
That was a good thing
to bring up because
he was
the way I was talking about
it maybe sounded too broad
when I was talking about
this one specific family.
family and specifically in an extremely rural part it's like technically in
Pembrokeshire but it's not like the town it's not no it's not implemented like
speaking of society it is its own micro society it really is like in the
middle of absolutely nowhere yes like it what you imagine like a mini cult like
there yeah you could run a cult from there pretty good I'm you're not going to
have any interference like three cars will pass through there in a day maybe
and two of them are lost you know yeah
But, like, you don't have to justify dislikeing the English on a just a superficial level.
Like, the English dislike the English beyond a superficial level.
Like, I have no problems with our neighbouring countries having certain opinions of England.
Because everyone has the English.
I'm fine with that.
it was more where I was coming from was
it seemed like one of the only reasons
that they had to stand on was that difference
and that it was like a weird
English they're from somewhere else
so they're from somewhere else
but also they specifically hated our granddad
yeah who was British and would
I don't know like so he named Max after
like a famous king or something
something who like killed a bunch of Welsh people like it yeah our granddad is is pretty
terrible for that sort of shit like yeah I guess he's like he's like so miserable he lived
there for like two decades like more he was there like my whole life yeah since look
before I was like yeah it's just a very weird dynamic of weird yeah just hateful people
yeah but we're like two generations later just trying to figure out like yeah yeah
There's a cute dog that we want to look after.
And that dog is being used as like this chess piece, a porn on their grandmaster chess game.
You're picking them up there.
They're two dogs really.
The sun chess.
They're Welsh.
Yeah, the check is.
Are you one of them?
James is an ultra-nationalist.
This is why I say James would be the right-wing one and I would be the right-wing one.
No, not too.
But I'd be a classical liberal, you know.
A.k.a.
Fascist.
To be fair, the Wales is a lovely place.
Really cute.
It's beautiful.
I've just spent some time in Wales,
and all the people I met were fucking horrible.
Yeah.
And this was like maybe 10 minutes into Wales.
Mm.
Go to London there, bro.
I don't look in you
If you want to meet nice people on
Like a on this little island
North
Go up
Yeah, got to go up
They're nice
They're nice
We're fucking miserable
Yeah
Cold
Well no we're warmer than them
Isolated
No like as people we are cold
I'm not
Yeah compared to someone up north
Okay
Someone starts walking up to you asking for directions
Do you A
smile and start talking to them
or be run
I would just be like
oh yeah
go up north
no it's just like
I'm not a dickhead
you know I'm like I'll give them directions
but I also don't know directions
I had one of those cold moments the other day
where it's like I really
I just was leaving Tesco
and someone like came up to me
and was like hey dude do you have a Tesco
club card because you wanted like
the club card price.
And I was like, no, sorry, man.
I'm just bored off.
No, but then why would you?
I bet you saw you use the club card.
I said, yeah, they're for five minutes trying to like scam my club card.
But in that case, why would you?
Because it's just like you're leaving.
Because you're doing your own thing.
You're leaving because you want to go home and do your own thing.
And then you're not going to wait for them to go buy their stuff and then give you a club card.
All I had to do is just go, ding.
Then I could have left.
And I probably would have got some points.
I was why you didn't...
Yeah, why did you do it for the points?
I should have done it with the points.
I'm surprised you don't stand there, like, waiting for people to ask you that.
Did you remember your card by any chance?
You just get in there first.
You just get in there first.
You can't tap on the shoulder and scan it when they look around.
Yeah.
But I suppose I should give a little Max update,
as soon as he came up and he was mentioned last time.
There's not much movement.
Just a little bit of internet sleuthing going on where, um,
we thought it stopped at the keats.
place that he was at um and obviously they can't give details of like where dogs are gone and
whatnot but just through a matter of luck and chance and a jarling out there a jarling somehow
found max basically and he's employed he's a worker now the jarling not going to say where the dog
um because i my plan is i've i've put together this letter this message to send them with like the whole
story um his resume is yeah and i was going to attach some pictures and some context um
because my whole thing was like my moral question was if this is like a just a cute little
family and they got kids or whatever i don't know if i could really ask for anything from them
i'd be i'd be happy and knowing that he was he wound up in a house like that um and i know if i
I was like a little kid and I'd just adopted like a dog.
It would be like horrible for after a couple months for it to be pulled away.
And I wouldn't want to do that to a little kiddie.
But seeing as it's like an eatery and establishment, it's like a business dog.
Yeah, he wears like a suit.
Yeah, it was like a crazy, just a crazy, all of this is so crazy to me.
And then the fact that someone managed to just find this random post on Facebook.
And all the dates lined up.
There were like pictures and I was like comparing pictures of him.
He's like holding a bone and I found a picture I'd taken of him of a similar angle,
holding like one of his toys and I was like, yeah, that's him, man, that's him.
So I'm going to send that message.
You're going to send an email and just see what they have to say, I guess.
Because that's where I've been stuck at is like trying to empathize and imagine like if I got a message.
So I've written like a couple pages, I think.
just to give the context
as I was silly the stories getting
I was just trying to imagine
like if I was sent that
what I'd feel what I'd react
because yeah
I wonder what's going to happen
mm-hmm
because there is a point in there where I do say like
I would love to
have him back
but I could see
why you wouldn't want to part with him
and yeah I'm at least happy that he's not
with this horrible family anymore
because putting together from the pictures I saw
he'd been
he looks weird he looks a bit off
because he's clearly been like shaved
which you don't really do to go and retrievers
all his feathers didn't look right
just looked a bit wrong
so clearly when he was given to the home
he was probably in bad nick
and they just shaved him, reset him.
So, yeah, we'll see where that goes with any luck.
We'll hear back at least not get blanked.
But yeah, shout was the jarling who found him
because we wouldn't have had that chance.
Otherwise, probably.
One other mithner thing, I wanted to say.
My new thing at the moment, if you hadn't noticed.
Milk?
Well, because the cured meat thing is going into the distance.
I need a new hyperfixation and it's this is a weird one this is a vocal one
I'm really starting to say my tease in like a really obnoxious
I hadn't noticed this whatsoever you know it's like really annoying it sounds like pedantic
what's a good example right let's do this then yeah I don't like that
There's no flow to...
No, you just...
You sound...
What do I sound like?
This is...
You just made this up now.
I would have picked that up immediately and been like...
No, it's not.
What's wrong?
It's not.
Sorry, it's not.
It is not.
So keep that in mind.
I just want to throw that way.
I'm not going to you because then you'll
forget about it and stop doing it. Oh, I wouldn't forget
about it. I've been doing this for a while.
Um, I, I, I need to do that with,
I, I, I've been bringing this up, like, every episode, but my C's, my C's.
C. C. C. C. C. Pottom. Pree.
James, say clever.
Clever. Where do you feel the C in your mouth?
Clever.
Clever. Clever.
Clever.
Because when I talk, sometimes my Cs go to like the back teeth.
Clever, clever, clever.
Clever, clever.
No, not like my throat.
No, like my teeth here and then if I've got like a bit of a wet mouth.
Mm.
Classic wet mouth.
Always got wet mouth.
Then I start going.
You know?
And, yeah, I just think it's really, like, gross and disgusting, and I'm a little monster.
You are.
Ooh.
But, yeah.
Yeah, well, I'm proud of you, dude.
I'm proud of you for pronouncing, announcing, announcing, creoncing.
Creatine.
Your tease.
Mm-hmm.
Thank you.
I like it.
You should pronounce things popular, though.
I'm trying.
Well, I think you, what you should actually actually do.
Yeah.
Is learn how to speak the true, I guess it's King's English now.
Oh, yeah, you're right.
Kings English.
Queenie English.
Because it's, I think our grandmother would be a good person to start with.
Hmm.
Because like when she says year, she'll go year.
One year.
One year.
I will have an announcement.
Hey, everybody.
I've got an announcement
to make
you're really selling me on this
I think it would be cool
and then you could go up and do a speech
somewhere
no
we're going to going up and doing speeches
we have to talk about this
why this was the big thing
because
I know this has been an ongoing thing
for little years
but FNAF has reached
our slash FNAF has reached a
crescendo
it's it's become
Um, like the start of the crescendo or the end of it.
And towards the end, I would say.
Towards the end of it.
Oh man, there's like real, there's real movement.
I keep saying things are movement, but this is, this is like.
Inertia.
There isn't, the inertia has carried it to this crescendo.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.
Yeah.
Um, so needs a little bit of context here, but, uh, starting off, Cockhampton said,
not a question, but Alex's giggle on Sardonicust when Adam asked, oh, you're on FNAF?
made me a proud jar fan
because we're talking about
the Five Nights at Freddy's
and I just
I just on the download
referenced the FNAF subreddit
and he just thought it was like
I just go on the Five Nights at Freddy's
Oh right
You didn't realize you were a moderator
That's a new thing
That's like the last week
That I've become a mod
But I don't abuse the powers
I've done no modding
I'm just a fly on the wall
A mod on the wall
A mod on the wall
A mod on the wall
So basically Fnaf wound up
in another big subreddit
the other day.
Just unsubbed.
Yeah, R-slash just unsubbed.
Oh.
Yeah.
Where it's like a place where people
go to complain about how crazy
other sub-redits are.
Right.
People are complaining about that.
So they're taking a screenshot
of one of the rules
on R-slash Fnapp, which is rule two.
Do not acknowledge Scott as the creator
of FNAF. James created FNAF
and Scott stole the code.
The general disrespect I've seen for James
on here is disgusting. He created
FNAF. Scott stole and owns
the IP, get over it. So that's
what's been screenshot and shared on this
1.7,000
upvoted post with 648
comments.
And the tag
was from FNAF
like I thought this was a joke, but no
posts are actually getting removed
and
what really sells it is like that's funny on
its own and that's humor spreading and it's like
clearly building over here
yeah um and
but what we are witnessing is a
birth of a conspiracy theory
a genuine conspiracy theory like genuine
conspiracy theory because it gets political
yes it's oh yeah it's overtly
political now and this is crazy
I'm gonna go through some of the comments that are
underneath this post the top comment
was just this guy who says who the fuck is James
800 upvotes
someone replied to it saying
I looked
Apparently there's an unused file in the code of FNAF called Piss-A-Dick,
who was meant to be Balloon Boy.
Apparently, that means that this James guy is the real creator of FNAF, but I don't know.
484, I face it.
Then this guy said, I'm pretty sure James created Fnaf is a thing that started as a shitpost
that some loony MFs latched onto so they could justify their hatred for Scott.
Which they are spot on for, because then this person was saying,
They don't like the creator's politics, so they're pretending a fictional character created the game.
Like how Hatsuni Miku created Minecraft and wrote all the Harry Potter books.
Someone replied to that saying, yep, just when I thought Reddit couldn't get more schizophrenic.
Another one replied saying, it's worse, because it's not like they were born this way or had some kind of trauma.
These are grown-ass adults, mostly men in their 30s and teenagers, who have gone off completely,
gone off the rails completely, actually opting into being.
straight up delusional. It's kind of like a consented to schizophrenia. So they love the
IP, hate the creator, and make up a fictional individual to justify still liking the works
of people they hate? That may be one of the most pathetic things I've heard. That's social media
activism now. They refuse to actually boycott the things they like. Gasp, I might have to make
sacrifices to stay true to my values, so instead they happily consume the media, giving money to the
person they hate while collectively
convincing themselves they're not doing
exactly that
they couldn't have it more wrong
it would be
funny like if this got worse
and there's actually a huge split between the
the libertarian and the
fucking
democrat like split
because people want to believe Scott made it
and people want to be why made it and there's
this whole political like fight over it
it's so funny that this is where it's
gone they're doing the thing they're talking about they're making up like a straw man they're
projecting their shit onto it onto this yeah yeah but they're saying oh these people just make up
their own narrative and yeah which is exactly what they're doing yeah listen to this one uh who the
fuck is james it's the start of the thread replied saying basically a fake person since scots a republican
and supports people with anti-LGBQ views.
They made a fake person and say they created FNAF.
To be fair to them, Scott made up a fake person
who canonically in universe made the FNAF games.
I'm not sure if that makes it more or less weird, but it's true.
Well, that sounds extremely childish.
I do like the way this has turned out
has aligned with me politically.
I am like the left wing.
I am extremely left wing that Scott is a tight score.
Yeah, and that, coincidentally.
that's how it is fallen
but that to me was like when I saw this
unfolding I was like oh my god
it's actually insane
that is all you have to do
yeah all you have to do is say
no it's something else
doesn't matter like
it doesn't matter what size of a platform you have
if you convince
if you're like in the street screaming it
and three people like repeat the dumb shit you say
yeah if it's just repeated enough
people just start believing anything
yeah
like like and
we're at the heart of this so there's no question mark it's like we've watched this disgusting
monster we've had in this booth like growing and now it's like breaking out
no but this is past the point though ever going to control it it's literally there's no
controlling this this um anti scott being that has my name
is it's it's gonna just continue to go to the point that it's going to be on our five
nights of Freddy's and it's just there's going to be a huge split and it's going to come back to me
because they'll they'll make links and they'll be like why is this person called james house on
twitter the uh the whole pisa dick balloon boy thing i like that's a nice yeah that's a real nice
talk they make this shit so believable man i love it and that's like i just love that
people there are people outside of the bubbles are like being introduced to this stuff and
they're just like so confused and like baffled and they're like this must be a immediate anger
this must be a politically charged nightmare
politics is anything to do
how did that how did that get in there
it could be less political like
yes the least political joke
of all time
and then of course people on Reddit are like
oh they just hate the right wing
shut the fuck up you losers
holy shit this is
I'm so proud of the journalists for this
Yeah, and we've done nothing.
We did nothing.
We didn't create the subredits.
We did nothing.
This was organic.
All we did was say,
you can leave us questions on our slash FNAF.
That was it.
That was James who did that.
It was actually made it.
It was like a snowball,
the head of the size of a needle.
That's what a nursery is, man.
You start a tiny rock
at the top of the hill as it's rolling.
Set another rocks going off
and they're getting bigger and they're getting bigger.
What if?
what if this this goes
this anti-Scott idea
goes so big that
Matt Pat makes a video saying the will
create a flare. That's the dream
and then it's just oh shit
and then it's deep dive into
jar and me
oh that'd be insane
that would be beautiful
we'd have to end the channel
that would be the ultimate peak
of jar humor that's like just walking to
the sunset like we've done it guys
yeah we made it
there's nothing else to even say or do
Yeah, and it's all because we followed Matt Pat's guide on how to get views on YouTube.
There was one more from this thread I wanted to read from Butterbeam 1,23, who quite eloquently summed up like the actual story here.
Hey, so since this is getting all out of hand and people are bringing weird political conspiracy theories into the mix, I feel like I might as well chime in because I know the host or the whole story.
James House is one of the hosts of JAR Media, a comedy podcast about whatever the host.
want to talk about as well as having a segment where they take questions from
the audience in one episode James jokingly said that they should post their
questions on our slash fnaf and a lot of people actually did it to the
confusion of the community over there however the stars aligned for this to become
more than a one-time joke as coincidentally one of the moderators of our slash
fnaf is an avid jar listener he asked the rest of the moderator team for
permission to change some of the sub to go along with the joke more like changing
the sub banner and logo and they responded by basically
giving them free rain over the sub
as most other FNAF fans had already migrated
towards the more all-encompassing
R-slash five Knights at Freddy's.
Ever since then, it's basically
been half-fnaf content,
half-jar shit-posting.
And this has been one of the bigger
running gags that James was the true
creator of Fnaf. It's been mentioned
a couple of times on the podcast and the hosts
enjoyed the joke well enough, so I guess
it factored into the continuation of the
joke. This was never about politics.
It was just a goofy troll.
Do keep in mind, though, that on our slash FNAF, James is the true creator of FNAF,
and we will not tolerate any slander against the legend that he is.
Yes.
Oh, my God.
I have to make, like, a five, I actually have to make a Five Nights of Freddy's Wival that gets bigger than it.
That's it.
That's my destiny.
I feel like if we, we could make, like, a, you know, like a fake, not like apology video,
but like kind of shot and frame like one
and be like
do you call it like
addressing the situation
and have James like seriously
yeah we'll write a script and everything
do it I can put it off
I'll wear a suit and everything
that would be fire
that would be awesome
just really sow the seeds of just confusion
you know
that's what you're talking about earlier
you know just get the
spread those seeds you know
yeah start spreading your seed
spread your seed
in the name of James created FNAF
Sprinkle it
We'll see after these messages
Yeah
Dick the head shirts
Available now
Check in a description
You've got a known
No no drink your fucking own
I'm permanently dehydrated
Don't you dare drink fun
That's rich man
What do you mean?
You always drink gyms.
No, look, you go to war.
There you go, good sharing.
Hey, I, yeah, yeah.
Oh, hi, baby.
Hi, bugger.
Hey, babe.
Hello, bugger gold.
Booker babe.
Look at her, she's bugger babe.
Hey, babe.
Bugger golden.
Hey.
Hey.
Do you want some James Waters?
two?
Oh, splash.
Splish, splash, I was taking a bad.
I hate the word splash.
Why?
I think it fucking sucked.
It would be a good dog name.
Okay, no, no.
Question, what, what, how would you feel?
How do you feel?
Yeah.
The word sloppy.
I love the word sloppy.
Sloppy-loppy-loppy.
I, I love the word sloppy, but
I know you love the word sloppy.
There's a weird kind of thing I know, which is men seem to love sloppy.
Yeah.
Women don't.
Women don't like the word sloppy.
Yeah.
I had this discussion about the word sloppy the other day with a woman.
What did she say?
She didn't like it.
Yeah, why don't they like it?
Sloppy's great.
It's like sloppy.
It's because I was...
No, no, when I think of sloppy, it's like...
I think of like a Donald...
I think of...
I think of Billy's jelly.
Yeah, that's sloppy.
And the thing that when you get it out,
and you can go with it in simple.
Yeah, mac and cheese.
Yeah, it's same.
Yeah, love and cheese.
But the same time, the thing that comes into my is,
like, wrestling someone in mud,
that's sloppy, right?
That comes to mine.
That's a clear kind of noise.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
It's like, would you not want to, like,
be on a trampoline and eat someone into slop?
Trampolines could be, could get slops.
They definitely could...
No, they get slippy.
Yeah.
But no, remember when you jump and then the raindrops would like stay.
Yeah.
That's, yeah, they were a bit sloppy.
And if a leaf or two was in there, that would be sloppy.
Slimy.
It's like ice when it gets...
Slimy and slippery.
No, I get slippery.
No, James is right.
If it's melting and gone great.
No, that's more slushy.
That's slop.
Yeah, no, okay.
Yeah, the slop slush.
Slop slush is a good name.
Hooray.
I like when it organically comes out.
Um,
well,
this is the part of the show where we do questions from the JAR Media subreddit.
Head over there to the suggestion thread and ask us questions.
Just like,
our slash Jal Media did.
Seeing as James has gotten into building slash painting Warhammer models,
I was wondering if he has got around to building the famed Cringmastank from years ago.
Well,
I thought we told this law.
Well, clearly, like,
you've got to address this again or something,
because,
What happened to it?
I sold it on eBay.
Well, that wraps that one.
I sold it on eBay.
I sold it on eBay.
You lied.
Did you get a good price?
Yeah.
Got a really good price.
This was fucking years ago as a fucking asshole.
I'll have you know, though.
I do have the Spitfire.
I do have the strip fire.
We'll sell it.
No, I'm building it.
You fucking bit.
Why?
You gave you that.
one time value it more
well uh
leg 27 says how come
we have yet to see a cast with Alex
and his twin Randy together
is the beef between them really that intense
it'll be nice to see the two make up and have a pleasant
conversation on the cast one day
um we might do an episode together
but I can't promise that it will be
pleasant
uh...
Can I ask why Jamie isn't similar to Randy?
What?
He's not my twin.
What do you mean what? Not similar?
What?
Why are you not similar to Randy?
No, go on, speak.
I'm just saying it's a bit weird.
What, what?
The fact that you and Randy are quite different.
Lots of siblings are different.
No.
There's something different there.
Jim's got a different rapport with Randy.
I don't understand.
Am I different to Alex?
No.
So Alex would also then be quite different to Randi.
No, Randy's different.
No, but you said I'm different.
This doesn't compute.
I'm just saying, maybe there's two brothers.
Maybe one of them, maybe one of the three is adopted.
Yeah, but how could a twin be adopted?
One of the twins is like.
If Alex and I are similar, but Randy's different, but then you're saying, why am I dissimilar?
The joke was that I'm saying that if, you're the, you're the,
adopted one out of the three yeah but but the maybe if Jim was like Indian or
something I am um somewhat Pakistani Pakistani Pakistani Pakistan not Pakistani
Pakistan Pakistan
Chams
please don't preach me on my own culture
Thank you
Bill Hader Gaming says this
Hypothetical
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella
personally reaches out to the JAR men
He wants to make JAR exclusive
to Xbox Game Pass
a la the Joe Rogan experience in Spotify
This isn't some sort of new initiative
from Xbox. JAR would remain the only
non-game on Game Pass
What is the minimum price
at which you'd consider the offer?
80 mil
20 grand
really
that's yearly
20 grand daily
it means I can
I don't have to work anymore
but bro Microsoft
this is Microsoft
that's lowballing it so hard
yeah
80 mil
remember how much they paid
like a ninja
and then just dissolved
all that
that whole side of the
yeah what was it called
a mixer
they can just like
tens if not hundreds of millions
just like written off
like yeah
we tried
yeah
who cares
gamble.
Oh well.
Minimum, so it'd be a yearly fee.
It wouldn't be a bulk free
for all of time.
Yearly fee, two million.
That's more like it.
Yeah, that is a bit.
Yearly fee, two million.
I don't have to work anymore.
That's not what matters.
If it was, what about like
a million pounds each?
Any day of the week.
Absolutely.
Full stop.
And we just keep.
But we just keep doing that.
This exact same thing
But it's
Exports Game Pass exclusive
No, I do it
One million a year
Yeah, but do we keep the patron
Yes
Of course
Then yeah
But I would have
No, one mill isn't enough
Yeah, that's not saying Ely
I would blow a million in six months
I would blow a million within a few days
I can fucking blow that
You would not believe us
want you to like win a million so you can
like prove this
yeah because you're so confident in that
fact
whereas I think you're underestimating
a million is a million is literally four R34
GTRs that's literally fucking nothing
but how stupid would you have to be
to go buy four of those like
anyone could do that
but like why would you do that
no I'd be smart okay because
money is simply
200k in investments on the stock market or
hedge one manager or whatever
100k in a savings account that's locked off permanently
100k in another one
house down deposit
a car for an investment
so you buy the best one you can
10 years time 200k
then spend the rest of cars
below the west of no can
because I'm still living I'm still working
so I still got my bills covered
you would still work yeah
yeah I'd because if I didn't work
I would be doing it I'd be overdosing
on cocaine within a week
Like, I need stimulation.
This is the thing, if you ever get rich, never stop working.
Because you're keeping your brain working.
And you actually enjoy your money.
I think if I won a lot of money, I would die.
Yeah, I would.
I think, like, at that point, it's like, well, okay, I've won.
So now it's time to test.
Test the human limit.
You know?
Yeah.
Because there's no point getting rich and then living your life,
hoping your next generation has money.
Fuck them.
Yeah, the boomer attitude
I like it
Yeah, I want to experience
No, no, no, no, this isn't the boomer attitude
Because the boomer attitude
They knew they were going to be fine
When they die, right?
But their next generation is fucked
Like, what's the point of bringing a kid into the world now
When they're going to have to do global warming
The economy's fucked
It's not the boomer attitude
I can't afford to get kids
Even if I could afford it when I'm
It is the boomer attitude man
But the beavers will save us so we're fine
I wouldn't even think about that, you know
We've got beavers now
We're going to have like our economy
based on vanilla extract.
No, essence.
Beav, yeah, vanilla essence.
Sonny's like Gimp is going to add beavers into his weird exhibitionism.
Yeah.
No, his ass will be the beaver ass with the vanilla.
Yeah, he'll attract people with them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Unfortunate.
Yeah, if I had a lot of money and I wasn't working, I would die so quickly.
Yeah.
Interesting.
But, I mean, if you won like the Euro millions, which is like 500 million.
True.
fuck you money, like you never
ever gonna even have to think about any
number. Well, no, because some people somehow
managed to fucking burn through it.
Hundreds of millions. It's like...
Hundreds of millions, easy. It would teach you, I'd turn
into Mr. Beast. I just be like... It's obscene, though,
because like, even if you put
most of it into a savings account, the interest
you'd be getting monthly, you could
live on that, you could live an
exorbitant life on the interest
alone, let alone what other
what you're doing with the other parts of the money or whatever.
Like, it's just obscene.
I put it all into Ethereum
Boogie it
Bugger it
Well if you earn that kind of money
The only thing you can do is
Fitch everyone
Give money to constantly people
Make needs to money
Money
Houses, cars
No but that's fake
No but then what am I going to do with the money
I think it would be cool to like
If you have got that level of wealth
You can be like just pick like a random town
And just gentrify it
Just you
Just completely
invest it all into this place and make it like a cool hub like um is it stroud did that there's just this
billionaire electric like eco energy guy just set up there and he's like created like hundreds of jobs
boosted the economy of the local area made it more appealing for okay now now this is a question
where we live right you are that this person and you can fix our town what would you do um
um start again yeah you'd have to fix you'd have to do infrastructure
stuff you'd have to.
Well, curious what James has to say to this one from,
I'm not saying his name,
because it's just a bunch of random numbers.
Does James really think porn is harmful?
He treats it like a dangerous, slippery slope.
Oh my God, this fucking shit again.
I think that's quite poor reasoning.
I don't understand how consuming sexual material digitally
is different than watching it in person.
Anything anyone enjoys can be addictive,
but treating porn like it's the sole cause of young men's strife
and incredibly dangerous feels dishonest.
He could talk about it in terms of his personal struggle with it,
But it's short-sighted and a bit off-putting to aggrandize the harms of porn because of a personal struggle.
Men need far more concrete ways to improve their perspective and thought patterns, not.
Pawn is the cause of your failing, and you'll be better if you don't.
Okay, so this is propaganda, basically.
This is a common argument for people who are basically trying to anti-anty-porn.
It is scientifically proven that consumption of porn fucks the problem.
brain receptors in your head for pleasure you're shortening the natural brain
pathways to receive dopamine and by getting not putting any work in real work
when it comes to dopamine related to sex is actual sex is the pursuit of a
partner and it's that that so when you when you have sex through that it's a
natural pathway in your brain that is being activated for your dopamine
clicking play on a porn video and getting that dopamine was released
It's not an natural pathway, basically.
You're shortening that
and you're fucking your dopamine receptors in the process.
That's where the biggest difference seems to be
is like there are multiple layers to this.
Yes.
Where like looking at a porn mag in the 80s
that have been stashed in the woods,
there's certain limitations on that.
There's a certain limitation of pages,
what's in the contents of it,
and like, there's not like algorithms funneling you down.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Certain, whatever.
And the thing is, when you've got porn mag, you've got four, 30 pages of porn, right?
On porn up, and you can see the memes everywhere, you've got millions of pages.
You can look through 30 pages like a minute.
Yeah.
And that's why you see these memes where people like, oh, I've just not getting it today, and it's like page 500.
That's, that's porn addiction.
And that the idea that there is like watching, like, I don't know why they're saying watching sex.
Yeah, that's a bit like.
which part was that sorry early on in the question i don't see how watching porn is different
oh yeah consuming sexual material digitally is different than watching it in person yeah um
that's probably quite a big difference i would imagine but also what who watches sex in person
like um but yeah yeah the shows they're different though they're not that's that's a whole other
kettle of fish and that's that's more of like a kink or most cuckold friend
Well, yeah.
Yeah, and porn kind of is virtual cuckold.
No, no, it is.
Yeah.
But the, it's not as much a personal struggle thing.
It's like pornography is insanely addictive.
It is bad for you.
There's no way around it.
And there's loads of people, especially some Twitch streamers who are really big, who are fucking assholes,
who've had this idea that consuming porn's a good thing and that you should because you're horny is a natural thing to be horny, to have attraction.
our brains aren't
fucking built for the way we consume
porn. I think about it even
broader where it's like
yeah one element
is porn but I think just broader
media in general and the impact
slash effect is not
understood or has been studied
in much detail
with how new all this
emerging tech is like how much
the engagement of media over the last
100 years
unprecedented
no one no one in the 20s thought that you'd be able to whip out a supercomputer and look at any image or answer any question you could conjure so this goes down to like imagery in kids movies imagery in films just anything any idea conveyed through media through propaganda through video and audio the power of that is misunderstood and needs to
I don't know, it needs to be analyzed properly.
Scientists got to break this down.
Here's my theory.
In school, what was the genre everyone talked about?
Milfs.
Milves.
Right?
What movie did everyone, Pixar movie, did everyone grow up watching?
Incredibles.
Incredibles.
I swear these animated movies, like, they create so many weird fetishes.
Yeah, because they're all made by fetishists.
They're made by horny men
And it's the same way
Fortnite skins are now 18 rated
That's right
I forgot about that change
Why would they be
18 rated these skins
If they weren't sexual in nature
They just like
Growing up watching like Eldorado
And that woman character
You got damn
What my god
I'm serious
It's like not even fair
We're at a certain point
You know
You're like a little kid
And it's like
How am I supposed to pass this?
How am I supposed to get to O'Dorado?
Tell me right now.
I need to be there yesterday.
Look, I'll show you, you've probably seen him, her, James.
This, this character.
Uh, shell.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Everyone knows this fucking character.
Look at the way the anime this shit, man.
Yeah, no, yeah.
Yeah.
Jesus.
And that's what little kids just like,
just watching this shit
it's not just
this thing
like there is enough
scientific data for you to be able to look at
completely by yourself and say
I can look at that and see
this actual scientific data
and say
that proves the porn's bad for me
I should stop watching it
doesn't matter how many people you listen to
say that you should
acknowledge how you're consuming porn
look
about what it leads like I think
stop my head
on all like 40% of divorces are blamed on porn
porn news
there's a fucking huge statistic
there there's a reason
why
port is not just
there's just yeah
there's putting the
way to put the blame I guess
is where I focus
because it's like
we just introduced this
crazy powerful
technology or
you could almost call it a sub
the power pornography has over people
is almost like a substance with the dopamine
We literally joked how gooning on this for years
Yeah yeah look at porn induced brain damage
Pawn induced brain damage
Like if the brain if the porn wasn't fucking your brain
Why these goon is so fucking addictive to it
That they're ruining their lives in the process
We've gooned like a lot of things basically
We've re it's like a level of self-awareness
That's like too far you know
We've recognized with these monkey things,
and we've realized we have certain reward processes in our brain,
and we've realized companies have realized how to get the most engagement
out of those reward processes in our brain,
whether that be porn, whether that be video games, or whatever.
And there is something crazy and new and scary about that
that needs to probably be talking about it.
What else did this person mention the comment to address?
read the comment again
the slippery slope
poor reasoning
anything anyone
anything anyone enjoys can be addictive
that doesn't seem
entirely fair
because each one of these things is different
and I feel like that
that's comparing it to the magazine in the woods
that is quite different
there's something a bit more
innocent and restricted
and
controlled
the potential for danger or whatever
is just so much lower
but we've also not talked about
the abuse within the industry
that is porn
by watching it you're actually supporting a terrible
terrible industry and then you have
companies like OnlyFounds that's won by a man
who's profiting extremely off of what is a pyramid scheme
that is exploiting women
well like even in
do you remember like the 90s
I don't know how long this guy I've been doing it
but I remember it in like all these American comedies.
They'd always be talking about girls gone wild.
Yeah, are these, I think it must have been VHS's, DVDs, early 2000s.
It was like this guy who'd go to like spring break and just go around filming drunk girls lifting their tops up basically or whatever.
It was like a huge thing and he was made a millionaire over selling all these.
And then like recently it comes out all this like creepy stuff about him and all these lawsuits.
And it's like, wow.
I know there they mentioned a slippery slope and this is a constant argument these people have against anti-porn stances.
There is nobody who consumes porn in regular places who's keeping, who's continuing to watch the same type of porn they watch when they started.
Your brain is not going to get pleasure if you're watching that same kind of vanilla porn.
You did when you're 13.
The slippery slope is nothing more than you moving on to different categories.
categories, different genres, different extremes, because you're dulled to the domain of the original category.
The slippery slope is real. It's with anything.
Someone who, like, has been drinking for 10 years probably needs to have a few more pints than the person who's been sober and they have one pint.
You know what I'm saying?
It's like if you, if you're on page 15 or 20, that is the slippery slope.
You're getting more worse.
social media slippery slope as well
and it ties into
like why I try to limit myself
but I mean you've seen me on YouTube shorts
the reason this shit is so addictive is because
of novelty like
the human mind is obsessed with
new different
yeah I think that's why like multiplayer games
are really addictive because
it's never the same it's never the same
it's different every time
you know
um that works the same
in porn where like the new thing
is going to like
light our brains up way more than a video we've already seen or like a video similar to
something we've already seen so there's this like growth of genre like you're constantly
it's going to such a like degraded level where like there are whole communities built around
people who are addicted to porn and they're like self-aware of it and they don't care yeah yeah
that's kind of crazy it's like nihilistic yeah it's definitely it's pure hedonism like
I've said before that as an example of the slippery slope is going from vanilla to like
hardcore bondage or like pain like that is a clear slippery slope but you don't
not everyone's going to get to that level of watching that type of themed porn that doesn't
mean the slippery slope doesn't exist just because you're not watching torture doesn't
mean you you've not moved from the starting place because of to get that new hit
yeah but also it's it's a quantity thing as well
Yeah, if you'll consume it, the more you consume it, the first you're going down the slope.
Yeah, if you, if you watch one video and you're 13 and now you're, you're spending half hour trying to find a video, that is a slippery slope.
And just the amount of time you're spending doing it.
Like, a lot of people love talking about this anti-prenography, like anti-antipronography.
It just seems to be, I don't want to be mean, but it seems like you're trying to get out of feeling bad about your own porn news.
because there's also
There's a weird political
thing with this as well now
where a lot of right wing people
are saying the same thing
I've seen that a lot of the Andrew Tate group
they are very anti-porn
which as much as he's a dickhead
his stance on porn use is like
he's got a point
because yeah it's a pointlessly politicised thing
because I don't know why
it became like a default
left wing position to be
what do they call it um like pro sex
pro sex um and framing it as like it's liberating liberating yeah
whereas like i don't know it's more a little bit more complicated than that to me in my mind
yeah especially in these senses yeah because i want i want people to like figure out
the sexuality and be able to explore that explore and express it's like it's hard to do that
when the means you have to explore it are like provided by these big corrupt companies that
they don't really care about the morality of anything it's just like what gets the most
engagement or the most bell delphine subscriptions they can sell like twitter now it's it's such
an engagement base of shit platform like people like you know it's like one of the biggest
twitter users is this i don't know who the hell they are they've got like a danny phantom picture
Oh, that I know the one.
Kira, whatever.
They will tweet something
and it's like a business model now
where an only fan's creator will reply
to one of her viral tweets.
His.
Or his, I don't know who it is.
And then they will reply to the only fans thing
with like a meme or a joke or just to reply.
And it turns out they're being paid
to reply to it to signal boost
the only fans creator and it's all this like
behind the scenes
and it's not just them doing it
that's just an example
it's all over Twitter
the engagement bait
like
mirage marketing
it's really weird
yeah that's what it is
wow
like Instagram's terrible with it
no matter where you go
they're trying to push porn
because it is highly addictive
but it's also an insane industry
this makes a lot of money
sells things sexual things
you can't really get
past that yeah the world the what this cyberpunk every other advert you see in in night
city is like some porn shit and like it every other advert I get on YouTube shorts is like
some like porn game or like so yeah overly sexualized like yeah I don't think it is sex
negative to criticize companies and abusive algorithms and yeah yeah and they're abusing our
like monkey brain nature you know and there's nothing liberating about that you know
it's almost the opposite it's like yeah turning us into these weird gooned slaves because
they would know so well the reward cycles that can be hijacked and people when they're
like agree when people are using technology and these devices and just press and agree to
these big, you know, 30-page documents of like with a suit, you're giving us permission to
show you this and do this and track this and sell this. It's almost like, there's like an
ignorance to it, you know, but everyone's just bought in and like not really thought about the
consequences. Yeah. We've like opened the Pandora's box in that sense. And it's like, well,
I can't close it now. Mm-hmm. Everyone's gooned already. What is what it's to do now? Yeah.
It's because it's not even just, this is what I mean about it not being just porn, because it's like, family members like on Facebook, just looking at like nothing or any of it, TikTok.
That's what I mean, that's what I'm saying with novelty.
It's just we're giving this stream of just like new different, new different, new different, new different, new thing you've never seen, new thing you've never seen.
And we can't stop.
Yeah.
Our brains are hooked on it.
But I would say it's like
You don't have to listen to anything I'll say
You don't have to say about my experience
But look at what it does to you
Search and see what the actual statistics are
For porn use and porn addiction
And if you still want to stand on the hill
That it's not that bad for people
That's on you
You know if you want to...
In 50 years when it has been studied more
what's that going to look like what are the conclusions going to be yeah i don't know if it is going to be
like oh yeah it's nothing has had no effect on anyone it's like it's like it just feels like
people just trying to you know not feel bad about their own use so they don't feel guilty how does
this line up then because it's kind of the opposite of the argument of violent video games
violent imagery
is not an issue
right that's a
that's a longstanding thing
that's like a position I think I've held
where like I don't think
you're going to create killers from
playing GTA yeah I don't think
playing Call the Duty white or any
first person violent video game
and killing this online avatar I don't think
that has the
same mental
stimulation that
pornography creates obviously it creates
dopamine because it's an enjoyable thing that's been micromanaged to give to
maximize your dopamine but it's not a natural thing we've grew up not grew up
but we've evolved for millions of years to have a sex strive and a sex reward I guess
the games the the imagery of the games is not the inherently stimulating part
it's the way they're designed and the reward loops the way the games are designed
yep it's not seeing the the attack dogs
rip someone apart that you're necessarily getting the raw form it's like the the points you get
is the points you know what I'm saying yeah yeah but you're jacking off masturbating and then
coming to a porn video is a natural York shortcut and a natural reward response I think like video game
addiction can be a problem as well for sure yeah like that's real too but I'm more going
going at that traditional conservative argument yeah yeah i think um i think there's levels to it i
i don't think you like make people more violent but i mean with vr now if if someone made like a game
that's really realistic and you're like from the perspective of like a torturer you're like waterboarding
people waterboarding and like just like cutting bits out of them and stuff i think i think that could
confuse the brain to where you're
desensitizing yourself. If you actually can't tell
a difference. I would say
if you look at people who have committed
like grave crimes
the thing
they use to stimulate their
horrible like
mental illness because nobody
who's committing mass killings are
mentally okay. They're not
playing video games. They're watching videos
on the internet. They're watching horrible
torture videos on the internet.
They're not playing quarter duty. But even if they were
that's not necessarily an indictment of video games though either no no at all right so how
i'm just trying to get to that difference between pornography and that because it's like
excessive imagery i don't think um there's inherent like positive like positive like brain feedback
from seeing violence and gore whereas if you see like as a man as
straight man looking at like
a CG woman like
Mrs. Incredible.
We can pretty...
Look at her butt in the mirror.
Yeah, or when she's like stuck in the
doors and it's like, you get it!
That's the best scene in the mirror.
Yeah.
Yeah, the part you rewind.
I think, like, that
that is like...
Oh? You know, brain, brain-lakey.
Brain-likey.
Because I guess the dopamine release you're getting
in like a cool.
the duty game it's like coming first
on the team or like
overcoming the kill and the sound
effects the yeah the shit popping
up and saying you're the fucking coolest guy
ever born knowing that you've
overcome another player out there
yeah yeah that's the reward loop
yeah that's the more dangerous
stuff I think no that's the more addictive
that is addictive that's a totally
I'm not saying more than porn I'm saying
that's more dangerous than violence in a game
you know when when I'm playing dead space
and like some dudes skin is
fallen off and stuff he's turning into a alien zombie that's like oh that's gross i i inherently
don't like that i like the i like the video game because i'm playing it to be scared
and what it's showing me is scaring me you know it doesn't make me want to go and strip so
flash off there's a level where it becomes so goofy that it's almost funny yeah yeah like doom
it's funny yeah and gears of war and like when someone's head explodes it's it's that that doesn't
happen people's heads don't explode so like cartoony and exaggerated yeah yeah it's almost like a
there's a huge disconnect or something yeah yeah and often the more violence something goes the
less realistic it becomes yeah it's weird that mm-hmm the more obscured violence is it can be
more impactful yeah yeah leave it to the imagination yeah so all in all the the the
avoid waterboarding
waterboarding mini game
from Modern Warfare 1
really good
really good game
is there really a waterboarding
minigame in
yeah you have to dodge
being waterboarding
you're being in the
which one year?
Which one year?
Which one year? No no no no no no
no no no no no no
no it's not the remaster of modern warfare 1
the remade
it's MW1
from like 20
it's MW1
20...
No, it's just MW.
2020?
Yeah.
Was it 2020?
2019.
2019.
Oh, they're going.
Whichever one.
Yeah.
Waterboard dodging mini game.
Yeah, you're imprisoned
being waterboarded by a Russian
because Americans wouldn't have a waterboarding.
That is the American tactic.
Good footballing.
Yeah.
They made that one.
Because they also did a thing in that game where there's,
there was like,
in real life in the Middle East,
there was a highway called the
highway of death
because the
Americans just
like
blasted it
just blasted it
to shit
the estrated
of 810
wargs
yeah
and then
the highway
of death
in modern
warfare
literally called
the highway
of death
was Russians
in a
fictional
middle eastern
country
interesting
and the
Russians
made the highway
of death
when in real
life
it was
CIA funding
baby
that game
sounds
crazy
as someone
is not played
It is so morally corrupt, it's unreal.
It's that blatant as well.
That's what gets me.
And you just know that, like, they had to get approval and stuff.
Like, the guy who, you throw the knife in the guy's eye, Monor Fetu, Shepard.
Oh, reaching a Monofet 2?
Yeah, yeah, I remember that.
His, like, story now is, like, he's still kind of just a good guy, you know?
You try to make him less cartoonishly evil.
well he can't be like fully evil
did you finish the monor warfare two campaign
no i didn't even play it though
because his
we shit we bury it
yeah his big traitorous act
one of the good guy main characters
is like he was trying to do a good thing
there he just went about it the wrong way
so it's like what why he starts like world war three
I thought that was like his fault in the original yeah
and that's like
an American
commander was the villain
of a modern warfare game
cool interesting actually kind of
saying something this new
modern warfare like the Den of the Bulls
he's like kind of the villain he meant well
he just did it the wrong way he didn't
go through the proper avenues good intentions
yeah yeah he meant well
he meant well committing these war crimes
so when
he's a bad guy he's not even a bad guy
pathetic
CIA funded
bullshit do you wish on Shepherd
had a point, had a point.
Here we go.
Huh?
Who's anti-establishment?
You really are the Joker, bro.
He didn't like the system because of what he saw
and what they did with the war being the original nuke
and that they sacrificed the lives of all of his men.
I never really fully understood, is it, in time?
He wanted us to end the military-industrial complex,
because they didn't tell his soldiers about the nukes who lost loads of men.
And they knew about the nukes.
Yeah.
And they didn't tell him to further their goals.
So they was anti the system that he was a part of.
And he just, he went about it through extremely.
The fact the modern warfare too looks subtle now in comparison is hilarious.
That's hilarious to me.
It is more subtle.
They do straight up, Carter.
I'm not even going to get into it.
Otherwise, we'll be talking about it for we've already been talking about it too long.
Let's do a couple more.
here for we wrap this one up like this one from deport led weck question for jim some episodes
back you mentioned your learning piano and music theory are you still going if so how are you finding
it have you discovered anything interesting about learning slash creative process as a bassist
i love to see others challenging the brain's musical side as i found it highly rewarding
and mind clearing use of free time a bonus question for everyone i'm currently stuck on writing vocal
melodies for original music.
Can the jar boys help me write a song containing the words
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and if you're
feeling extra daring, Friday, perhaps.
We might be able to get Saturday and Sunday.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday through Thursday.
You can't just do that again, though.
It needs to be something new.
Hmm.
Monday's coming up.
Tuesday's coming up.
Wednesday's nearly here.
Thursday's over there.
I like that.
Yeah, that works.
But learning music is extremely satisfying.
Like, it's...
When is the point where it went?
Um...
When I was sat at my piano,
and I'd been told, like, a few of these rules.
And I was just, like, sort of...
Playing it.
Because basically all I'm doing at the minute is scales.
Like, if you could...
can understand scales and stuff you you can do pretty much anything from there um so i was just
like there's there's a thing called like the circle of fifths right so like i won't get too
into the nitty gritty but you can you can work out every major key by like there's five
fingers, right? So the first major C is no sharps, right? And then it goes up by one when you go
to the fifth. So you go to G. And then you go up, that's got one sharp, and then the next one
has two sharps, and then three sharps, and then four sharps. What does sharp mean? You know,
the black notes on the keyboard. Oh, yeah, yeah. So it's legit as simple as that. And then to work out
minors, which have the
same sharps as
majors, when
you go three semi-tones
down, so then you can
work that out, you go to like sharpen the
or, yeah, sharpen
the seventh, blah, blah, blah.
But it's all these like
rules and things that
it's been super satisfying
to not know it
and then gradually
work it out and then do it over
and over and over. So then when you sit,
down and you're just like, okay, I'm going to do like G sharp major and then you just do
it. Do you like try to deconstruct songs when you listen to them, like listen out to
the way things are structured? I don't think I'm that good. Right. Um, because like you get
people that are pitch perfect or whatever the term is. Yeah, yeah. Where they hear like a chord
or a note and they're like, oh, that's D major or D sharp, D flat. And yeah, I, I,
I can't do that.
You know, I might be able to work it out with time.
Yeah, super fun.
I haven't really tried, like, making music, you know.
I'm not there yet.
I'm still very fresh.
Fresh?
Born fresh on the subject.
Yeah.
I'm only just recent, like, out of the womb.
That's fair.
You've got to put 10,000 hours in for your pro, so.
10,000 hours but yeah it's it's some some day because I've been working quite late recently
and it's like I could turn on my PC and play a video game for an hour or I could just sit
at my piano and it just works out mm-hmm and I respect that yeah I feel I feel as though
you know instead of on unlocking like two more guns in battlefield
five more chords means more to me.
That's going to translate
into the whole
of the rest of my life.
Not just this video again.
It's good attitude.
Yeah.
And
I'm going to send on this one then from
HMPO.
Bear Bear Bear Mingers.
First of all, I just want to say
thank you for the cast.
I've been going through a lot right now
and one of the few things that's really helped me
has been looking forward to each new episode.
So I really do want to say thank you guys
for doing what you do.
Now that the sappy part is out of the way, I need your opinion on something.
That was my name.
This is going to be kind of a throwback to a classic jar discussion, specifically James' incredible culinary creations.
Back in college, I worked at a restaurant, so normally I got most of my meals from work,
meaning I didn't buy too many groceries during that time.
When I wasn't at work and I had to cook for myself, I had a couple of go-to meals.
One was what I called my signature pasta salad.
Basically, it was just spaghetti noodles, black beans, parmesan cheese,
in Italian dressing. Got my grains and proteins in. Sometimes if I was feeling extra
bougie I might buy some radishes or broccoli to throw in. Now I always thought this was
pretty normal, a pretty normal struggle meal. However, my fiancé thinks this is absolutely disgusting
and forbids me from ever making it again. So I need your opinion. Is this a good meal for a
struggling 20-something or is it truly revolting? Thanks for everything and has a little incentive
for agreeing with me just now. I'm going to start becoming a patron soon. Really looking forward to James
reading my patron name.
Legend.
That's fine.
I got some issues with this.
Wait, remind me of the ingredients.
So it was spaghetti noodles, black beans,
parmesan cheese, and Italian dressing.
No all of all?
Yeah.
That sounds fine.
Nah.
If James is the only one liking it,
then you might have some problems here.
Black beans?
Black beans can go with pasta,
but you need more going on.
You need more going on that.
Yeah, but this is a struggle meal.
This is a struggle meal.
When it comes to a struggle meal.
But I think even struggle meal, it would be more acceptable to just have pasta olive oil,
parmesan.
Yeah, I've done that.
Yeah, but that doesn't, that's not getting your nutrients in.
If you want more, like, if it's a whole wheat.
But like a carton of, or a tin of chopped tomatoes is not, like, it's not expensive.
No, that's true.
Get something like, get a sauce going.
An onion is what, like 40p?
Get an onion in there.
Or, no, no, well, no, on the, on the case of, you know, that's not a struggle meal.
It is a struggle meal.
No, a struggle meal.
I can make you a really nice pasta for, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, struggle meal is your,
your fucking work all day, I haven't done a food shot recently.
You get home, you need food, you open your drawers and you see what you have and you cook.
Yeah, okay.
That's a struggle meal.
If you're struggling for time as well as money, then, yeah, you're right.
You don't do any cook.
But you don't want to prepare any vegetables, any...
You said he put broccoli in and...
When he had time?
Yeah.
Well, students have all the time in the world, so...
Well, yeah, don't do anything.
Yeah, that's not really an excuse.
I'm just saying when the fact...
I've got to be ready before I party.
I need to try and get over my hangover so I can be hangover, hung over tomorrow.
But no, this is the thing.
A struggle meal is like beans on toast.
Like, that's better than beans on toast, so that's fine.
Is it better than beans on toast?
See, I think beans on toast is better.
Not beans on toast.
beans on pasta.
Oh, right.
Yeah, yeah.
But beans on toast is also
a struggle meal.
Yeah, but it's fire.
It's yummy.
No, son.
Get some cheese on there.
Soggy fucking bread.
No.
If you do it right,
toaster right, cover it with the cheese.
So it's got a late.
Yeah, why would I have fucking cheese?
Why would I have cheese?
No.
Because you're a human being?
Cheese on fucking beans.
Fuck off.
Yeah, then the beans melt the cheese.
No, but this is the strat, right?
You toast.
You toast the toast.
Yeah.
Obviously.
Of course.
