Starting point is 00:00:00 Wakey, wakey, time for the snakey. Wakey, wakey, beans and rice on a platey. Beans and rice, good meal. No. Credible meal. Should be the basis of most meals. No. Go on, James.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Give us a... No, shut the cough. Come on, give us the craziest episode yet. No, you've ruined that. What have I done? What have I done? You've joined to ruin the energy. We've ruined the vibe.
Starting point is 00:00:36 How? By the... Gungi-Gingi, gunga! Gunga! Kung-Gingi! Gingi! Luckily, it's video so you can see in focus what's happening. Good afternoon, morning, evening, all night, ladies and gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Welcome to this episode of Gildjari podcast. This is episode 2-5-3. plus two this is completely rotten up the number dude 273 plus two yeah there you go that's the real number
Starting point is 00:01:10 is this mullet warfare or is this inherently linked or is this little mama in charge no no do you know this crappy radio station was it there's a crappy radio station in the UK and the host on the Brechtriff's show hosts a podcast
Starting point is 00:01:26 and he decides the title of the podcast episode directly after just random funny things and it's not funny you shouldn't have to you shouldn't pick the episode of the podcast or the next one you shouldn't tell people that oh you should vote in and pick no it's not well saying
Starting point is 00:01:43 don't bother asking us about what podcast name you're going to pick when you're sitting at that computer gooned out your face at 7 10 in the morning you just pick whatever one intrigues you at that time well now and again I message you and ask which one's better cloud of sound or pulled into iris Both cringe, both bad.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Well, no, that's why I need... Out of those two, I'd say pulled into iris. What about obsessive-compulsive order? That one. I like that one. No, that is better. Because I invented that and not James. No, you invented addicted to us.
Starting point is 00:02:17 I'm a disease. Bruh. Yeah, man. Before we get too deep into this episode, I'm Jamie. Alex to my clear left and James to my clear right For you it will be James to my clear left And Alex to my clear right Especially if you're listening
Starting point is 00:02:36 I'm on the left James is on the left all right Yes and speaking of listening The reason we are available Audio only is thanks To the wonderfully beautiful patrons Over at Patreon Patrions Even that
Starting point is 00:02:53 Like a wicked patronus When are we gonna get free Dio-Mai? Like, the audio listeners can hear... James, you just got to do one of these. No, baby. So then when you talk, they can hear it on their left. And when I talk, I'm on the white. See, to me, I'm up to the individual deciding how they interpret it.
Starting point is 00:03:13 So if they want Alex to be on the left, when Alex speaks, plug your right ear. I think you can actually do one of these things where it's like, hey, right now, I'm right in your left. And hey, right now, I'm right in your right. yeah and then the brain does the compensation it's like well no i was actually gonna i was gonna tweak it when oh really like the beetles like paul mccartney very cool very cool for the future it's coming soon enough i want to see him do that live does he do that live do you think that man isn't alive mm my my extremely controversial take is beetles I'm pretty sure I actually noted down ages ago
Starting point is 00:04:02 James' opinion on the Beatles because I knew you were anti-beetles and I've always been quite pro-beetles some beautiful songs in there my guitar gently weeps now go on critique that song yeah go on never listen to it
Starting point is 00:04:24 I see how it is I'll give you Lelo Submarine. I'll give you that one. That's a good song. It genuinely is. We all live in. Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, da, ba. It's more of like a chan.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Ba-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da. Don't you think? Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da. Get that out your head. But do you think a song being earwormy inherently makes it good? No, it doesn't make it good. But it makes it a song. An annoying one.
Starting point is 00:05:01 Bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear, bear. Bear, bear. Oh, James, join. I know you love Bear Bear Bear. You can do it. Combine your two favorite things, Bear Bear and the Beatles. Sing your favorite Beatles song with the new lyrics.
Starting point is 00:05:19 What's your favorite Beatles song? Yes. Bear, Bear, Bear, Bear. Mine's, um, Bear Bear Bear, bear seems so. Mine's the jaded mix. What's the jaded mix? It's better than every single feteer has ever done.
Starting point is 00:05:36 What's the jaded mix? What do you mean? The jaden smith mix. Yeah. The jaded mix. Okay. Cool. It's not my thought you don't appreciate true, true art.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Tell you what I do appreciate. A clean, nice, beautiful. nice, beautiful house. Cool. Maintained. House cleaned. Mm. Cleaned house.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Oh, this is going to be a controversial one. Do you really think so? Well, yeah, we went in last week on people. Yeah, we had a few conversations last episode we need to address and said here, housekeeping segment. What have you said today? What have you done? What have I said?
Starting point is 00:06:22 Yeah. More like what did Jim said. Me? Yeah. Yeah It's time to drag you through the dirt I very rarely say anything Who yeah who gets the most addressals
Starting point is 00:06:34 In the housekeeping segment I think so Yeah James earner James says James preaches the most truths I'm afraid Yeah and I don't need to back them up
Starting point is 00:06:45 The kind of hard truths The Rock posts on his Instagram type truths Yeah Facebook On the same thing Yeah On the metaverse and all the subsidiaries
Starting point is 00:06:57 Okay, let's wrap up some of the conversations from the last episode GITS Industries is going to get us going The new visual flares and jar demonstrates a distinct change To experimentalism Top notch, you're clearly taking notes from the MCU This transition to a tour cinema I'm just trying to meet Martin Scorsesey proud Yes
Starting point is 00:07:21 James McComb as our next one It's wild how Alex is supposedly a target for door salesman because he's easy to scam and here we have Jamie and James trying to pawn off the pisser onto him We didn't talk about the actual scam Did we not talk about the scam? I didn't think we actually talked about the scam What scam? What scam? Do you even know about the scam? Oh what the you got scammed? No, I nearly got scammed Oh, I thought you did get scammed No, is this the scat you fell for one scam? I fell for one scam
Starting point is 00:07:52 You actually fell for a fucking scam Which makes sense because So here's how it happened I'll tell you the scam story You know Well anyone who owns a mobile phone They're going to be getting those messages Those texts
Starting point is 00:08:06 Those random texts From Companies claim Or numbers claiming to be companies of some sort Yeah Your Amazon package actually needs to be Rescheduled or whatever Click this link to find out how
Starting point is 00:08:22 and in a moment of weakness I clip one Because you were actually expecting something mine You were actually I was in one of those half minds Where I was like I was focusing on something I get the text come up on screen
Starting point is 00:08:32 I think Oh yeah I do actually have a package That's annoying I've got to like reschedule or whatever I'm like do it I go through the form Pay the one pound A rescheduled delivery
Starting point is 00:08:43 Not realising what I've done Ooh So I'm scanned out of a quid I've lost a quid But the thing is that's that's a scam but that's a fishing scam that's how they get they're fishing for information
Starting point is 00:08:56 that's what they want so they got the contact details they know I'm easy to scan they got that quid so they're like here we got one we got one right on the line so then it begins I get a phone call
Starting point is 00:09:09 from someone claiming to be my bank and this person they're the kindest most sympathetic most heartwarming person you've ever heard they've got this script down to a fucking tea every concern I, every concern I bring up, every single thing I'm saying, there was even a point where I was like, man, this feels like really weird what you're telling me right now. Give me a second, will you? And they're like, oh, don't worry. No, this happens all the time. Don't worry about it. It was like a nice, it was like a calm woman, like talking, trying to reassure me again and again. Like saying, oh, yeah, your accounts under siege. And we've got to, what we've got to do is we've got to, we've got to move. a certain amount into a side account
Starting point is 00:09:53 so then we can set up a new one to protect the old one or whatever. We've got to move it. So what we've got to do is we've got to take a certain percentage of what's in your account currently and move it into the new one. Right, on your phone app for me, can you go to the ad new content?
Starting point is 00:10:12 So as soon as it got to that, I was like, okay. No, obviously not going to do it. What happened there was that I'd basically turned up to go to the gym. Yeah, you were gym. I came in for the gym and then I was like sitting down drinking my sloppy, glorious, fucking liquid
Starting point is 00:10:26 beauty. Protein juice. My protein juice and I was just like, in a state of euphoria, I was just out of it. I was in heaven. Then Alex walks in on... You were in the best mindset.
Starting point is 00:10:38 You were in the clearest mindset that I needed in that moment. And then you walked in like, James, what... Yeah, because I was going through this conversation, I muted it, came downstairs to where James was drinking his protein suck.
Starting point is 00:10:50 Glug. is protein glug and I explain the situation to you and you're just like hang up hang up right now yeah I was just like wait but the doubt in my mind was getting me
Starting point is 00:11:00 and I wanted to I wanted to hear them out so I just kept listening I was noting down like the shit they were saying to me like the account they gave me the numbers the account number the sort code some random name they gave me and they were trying to get me to send a figure to this account
Starting point is 00:11:16 which I didn't do because it's It's like the most suspicious thing like ever. But the thing that was really messing with my head is I didn't realize they had the technology to change the caller ID. Because that was the first thing they did is when they called, when they answered. It was if you want to double check that this is legit, check the number on the back of your card and that it lines up with the official like bank that you're under. And it did. It was the exact same number.
Starting point is 00:11:48 so they have the technology now to change like the the caller idea of what so you can't even trust that anymore no because the way that works is through VoIP basically when you're in any call center or any business your your phone is connected it's not through a landline
Starting point is 00:12:04 it's connected to the internet through VoIP a program and through that when you call people to do any business obviously that number is not the number you're calling from is the company number because that's what you've set it as on the program yeah you can change that you can do whatever if it's something you set up so that's how they mask their number by you
Starting point is 00:12:23 by basically copying the yeah so so so this yeah they're they're trying to get they're 20 steps ahead they've got this technology they've got these mind-waping and like empathetic sympathetic techniques they're trying to grind you down they're trying to make you as scared as possible but in that that brief moment of weakness to try and make you send some money to like this random account and as soon as that scent it's done you block you'll never getting that back it's finished yeah because if if you send it and the bank is like well you send you manually send you put in the details you send it's why they have to set it run if you want to make payment it's just like are you 100% sure this isn't fraud yeah are you
Starting point is 00:13:04 100% you know this person sending money to because it is the scam because an old person isn't going to pick up on all the little tactics so if they get a call from their bank and it's it's got the same number I think they're going to believe there is their bank yeah yeah yeah yeah 100% It's so predatory. Oh, yeah, it's really messed up. I really wish that I'd recorded that phone call. Because when I was sitting there, I was like, Alex, just hang up now.
Starting point is 00:13:28 And you were like, no, honestly, how far they go. And I was just sitting there like. Yeah, because it was, they were communicating in a way where they were acting, basically. They were full on acting, performing. It was a performance they were putting on for me. Trying to come across as like empathetic and taking the vulnerability as much as possible. And man. it's dark because it must work yeah i'm sure they're doing it yeah well because i
Starting point is 00:13:55 james when he was in the kitchen while i was talking about it you you searched up and found like a like a recent article that at the time was like literally been posted a few days ago yeah because there's always like those type of scams there's always updated on websites and it was like i think it was on the gov website and it was just like these are the current scams and it was like this is the one that's update 15th of may this is one to stay updated on the 20th of may and this just like the day before it was just like this is the update they pretend to be your bank they do this the numbers are the same listed all the same details of what you're going for and i was like yeah it's a fucking scam but that's the exact type of shit that just started
Starting point is 00:14:31 popping up on my phone yeah when you told me about it i was like oh because i got the same text being like you missed the parcel from royal now and because like the modern human just orders shit. Oh yeah, everyone is and the other reason I fell for it was the the mobile raw mail site
Starting point is 00:14:53 I know it's trash I know it's awful I've used raw mail's website before and it's awful so it's like oh they've just got an awful website then yeah they have an app that is so shit
Starting point is 00:15:04 sucks so bad so it's like oh they just made a change yeah I just figured they had a like dodgy old ass website yeah but luckily for me when I received the same thing I was like wait a minute I haven't ordered anything for like three weeks
Starting point is 00:15:19 that's the thing the more you order the more vulnerable you are yeah the recent one I've seen is basically a text that mimics the the um COVID shit that you've been in contact yeah I got one of those yeah yeah and that like
Starting point is 00:15:37 that's that's actually a government thing from last year and now it's being used as a scam like some old person who's just been out of their mask to M&S, they're going to fucking freak the fuck out. Yeah. They get a text from the, yeah, it says at the top from, that is from the government. Yeah. And then there's a link to click
Starting point is 00:15:55 to fill in your details. And they pretend that the government saying you've been in contact with someone with COVID. It's horrible. It's so horrible. Yeah, you've got to have your wits about it. You can't have a moment of weakness. Yeah. You can't.
Starting point is 00:16:12 Because then you could be losing like a ton of cash. See, this my tactic is that some people might say it's pathetic but I just don't talk to anyone and don't answer any phone calls. It's like if I get a text I don't reply. I literally will just look at it and not reply.
Starting point is 00:16:28 But it's obviously not, I mean text is in text text, not phone messenger. Like if I get an actual message through my phone number, I'm not replying to that. And even if random numbers call me, I just Google the number and be like, oh, that is obviously just scam. Don't ever answer anything.
Starting point is 00:16:42 Yeah, that's the tact I do, who called me or whatever Yeah, literally the best thing ever. So most useful things. It's like 95% of the time it's just like some random scam. In Milton Keynes. Yeah. Jack Diamond left a comment. Hey Joy Boy Soys with Toys.
Starting point is 00:17:04 Jimmy brought up how it was enjoyable to watch Let's players like Jack Septickeye play games because it was harder to buy so many games to enjoy a young age. This really clicked with me. Since I used to be terrible at games as a little kid, but always, always enjoyed watching my dad play a game. Even as an adult, it brings me entertainment to watch my dad or little sister play, rage, or mess around in so many horror games. Which do you prefer most, boyos, gaming, watching others game, or playing co-op slash sharing the game? Sharing the game. Yeah, co-op is the best.
Starting point is 00:17:37 Yeah, it's a shame we've left the o'er. There are certain games that are so satisfying to watch. yeah for me it depends on the game certain games are way more fun to watch than others but for me specifically soulsborn there's something so satisfying in your brain when like you know dark souls won so well and then you watch someone play it for the first time yeah i love the like uh like the twitch streamers that do the like no-hit runs yeah yeah the like pacifist run crazy stuff like that's like the exaggeration of your own experience where they know the game so well like yeah yeah but like even when we're playing together
Starting point is 00:18:19 co-op and like i i was like we have to do this cave at this point because i knew it would have a reaction from you we're talking about aldermeree yeah the bear cave yeah there's a bear in there actual there's like many bears in that game and it's terrifying and horrifying yeah but that bear was like your first bear. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I can't be doing with that. Yeah. I'm a big, I'm a big speed run
Starting point is 00:18:51 enjoyer. Yeah, absolutely love speed runs. Yeah, same. Such a fun idea. Again, though, Soulsborn games best for speed runs. Yeah. Yeah, I got into that with the like the Sekaro speed run after finishing
Starting point is 00:19:07 it. The one that really got me into it was Bloodbourne. there's some really good good level ones actually yeah yeah I've never played it to completion but I've watched a few
Starting point is 00:19:17 speed runs of that one yeah I gotta say fun memories of like playing like the original Mary Bros and just swapping the controller after dying
Starting point is 00:19:29 stuff like that even like Kid Icarus random like games from that era yeah there's something so satisfying about seeing someone figure something out that you couldn't
Starting point is 00:19:43 but also knowing when they don't figure out what you did it's like this it's just like understanding someone else's experience with something yeah I'm big fan Megan Emworth left one saying
Starting point is 00:20:03 cannot believe Jamie enjoys the cups of dirt sold at Costa enough to buy a Costa card really struggling with how to enjoy the cast now thanks guys X you have to say for yourself I have a caffeine addiction yeah we all do and most
Starting point is 00:20:21 most human beings do anyone who has to get up and go to work has a caffeine problem yeah there's you the world the working world literally will collapse if there was no coffee it's the only way we've got essential drug to society yeah yeah that was genuinely a thing
Starting point is 00:20:39 from like from what I understand the the Middle East discovered caffeine first and they had a golden era and then everyone else got caffeine oh and then they suddenly accelerated like way ahead it's like yeah I could not exist on the level I do without caffeine like I would be five years back yeah yeah it's wacky um I didn't really get into coffee until 2020 or 2021. I didn't really seek it out that much. Well, I started, I started drinking coffee on my first ever job.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Mm-hmm. Because there was a coffee machine there. And when it was boring, make a coffee. Yeah. Staff coffee is 50. Get you jazzed, get you, yeah. I was a tea boy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:36 It's just like, I'd never thought of coffee because I was around people who drank tea. So it was like, I'll have tea. But then it's like, oh, tea's kind of gross. And it's like, oh, fucking coffee. Coffee's got the flavor. It's got all the different. Actually, I'm not anti-tee, though. I like a good tea.
Starting point is 00:21:53 I do like a good tea when it's not in one of those. There's so many options with tea. Just like coffee, you know, you got like... Yeah, yeah. Got your tuna. The thing is, I got to a point with coffee now where it's like, it's not about enjoyment. It's not about taste.
Starting point is 00:22:11 see that's where you're going wrong because I drink a lot of coffee still there's there's a point where like in your working life where I can't sit down and enjoy a coffee you know there are circumstances where I just need a hit you've ruined it for yourself I think you've gooned it then because the most important thing about my entire life is going out of my way on a Saturday morning to the coffee shop that makes good coffee to enjoy a good coffee. I mean, I actually on that train every weekend
Starting point is 00:22:44 no matter what. Yeah, to the extent where you don't invite me. But like, why should you come then? If it's not about enjoying coffee to you. Because if, if I'm drinking coffee
Starting point is 00:22:54 to, like, meet a goal of energy, that's different to sitting down with a couple friends and enjoying a beverage. You've gooned yourself. No,
Starting point is 00:23:10 because you can appreciate a nice coffee while it's like when you're a heroin addict but you also don't ever try the coffees you will always get an Americano no it depends on the place because it's like the coffee place we go to the nice coffee place I will always have variety
Starting point is 00:23:33 I've always got a bit of selection I throw out I have a cortado flat white cappuccino espresso No, it's a lotte You know Because it's got that Chocolate tea fucking That's the first one
Starting point is 00:23:45 That's the first one You know Have a variety Because then I'm enjoying Different kinds of coffee So it keeps in German No but when I go there I'm getting an Americana
Starting point is 00:23:53 Because I get the The taste of that coffee It's like I go there To experience that The actual coffee When I get coffee from Fucking Costa Shit's coffee mine
Starting point is 00:24:04 Shite coffee It's fucking shit I get some sweet shit I get a latte You get a popcorn A mokker Foponino, fat-papered, iced creamy. Well, some soy milk bullshit that just tastes
Starting point is 00:24:13 a soy milk, which is all right. Yeah, it's like why I get the energizer caramel artase. It's just caramel. Yeah. It's like you don't go to Costa if you actually like coffee. You go there if you like milk. Yeah, if you like milk and you like sugar. Yeah, if you like milk sugar and like a sudden burst of energy.
Starting point is 00:24:34 I genuinely think if not for caffeine, I would be like 30 stone you think so see for me um that first coffee of the day is like a special one to me yeah yeah cost a machine in Tesco Express
Starting point is 00:24:52 the daddy long legs just touched me and I didn't like it you I used to be like deathly terrified of those things they're not very scary no but I've got this memory Mum traumatising me with one. It's like Hellbarn and was like, Well, you're scared of it, are you?
Starting point is 00:25:17 Um, well, yeah, on the similar note, LG Grail, so I'd never metagamed anything. Seems like so much work for a free coffee. No, but this is the thing Jamie's not put in the work. He makes other people put in the work. We go there, what does he get? He gets one coffee. That is not true.
Starting point is 00:25:33 We went to Costa today. The only person that used my Costa car. was me, plus if I'm buying a Costa every day, what's the point of not getting a free one every time I reach the eighth day? No, because you're gaming wrong. Buy the £7 mug,
Starting point is 00:25:51 and you can get a free coffee and $4 instead of eight. You've halved your meta-gaming. Metagame to the max, bro. Yeah, metagame to the max. But like, is that really so much work? It's not. I don't really think... It's not.
Starting point is 00:26:06 Because the only reason I got the card is because I was in there one day buying a coffee and they just had like a card in front of me and I just picked it up and took it Oh really? Yeah that I downloaded the app Sounds like to work bro. I downloaded the app to do in my info That was that bro. I've got done taking your info and they're selling it to scammers to try and fleece you Yeah, but I'm not susceptible to scammers like Alex Is downloading an app work? Yes. To a degree, yes.
Starting point is 00:26:42 I guess if we're being technical about it. Well, the last major topic for housekeeping was, we were on a role last episode with the controversial topics. We're talking about hunting. Placeholder says, the hunting talk was good. I just think Alex doesn't understand hunting. Even with firearms is still very hard. Now, you walk up to a teammate of a shotgun and go fucking bang.
Starting point is 00:27:06 I don't think I ever said it's not difficult. I was just making the observation that... It's too easy now. Yeah, it's like it's a different thing. Yeah. Man thousands of years ago hunting as opposed to man now. Yeah, because man thousands of years ago would have to make his weapon and his ammunition. Yeah, and have a different understanding of the environment.
Starting point is 00:27:29 Yeah. No, that's the thing for me. Because it's like... But I've never used a gun. Yeah, I'm sure it's difficult to utilise that set of tools. I can buy a thing where I just like move my finger and if I get it right, the thing is dead and I've got a fuck ton of meat. But also I could spend less money and just have a fuck ton of meat. Son praising man left one too.
Starting point is 00:28:02 bear bear mingers. To add to Alex's comment in reference to the conversation of hunting near the end, it doesn't have to be black and white in regards to being vegetarian slash vegan. Just eating less meat in general of or setting out a specific day of the week where you don't eat any meat at all can drastically help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and deforestation along with other health benefits in the long run. I tried going vegetarian before too, but stop because there's too many good foods out there that require meat. But I still found the strategy of not eating meat for a day. as just my two bears. And Gebby says, as a vegetarian,
Starting point is 00:28:37 I find your discussion on the concept of morality. Interesting. I think there's a lot of people that believe we are all pretentious and threatening. I guess this is in reference to vegans or whatnot.
Starting point is 00:28:47 But that's just a vocal minority. I guess, that's every group of people, I guess. When Alex mentioned buying a vegetarian sausage roll from Greggs, it made me feel way more comfortable in myself. I haven't heard many talk about, especially males, and it's refreshing as there's a lot
Starting point is 00:29:01 of masculinity discussion. around it. Like, come on, your pussy off, you just don't eat something that's vegetarian because, oh man, me eat meat. Like, your pussy, oh, come on. Goku eat so many burgers. The ex-vegetarian perspective is interesting to me as someone who's been a vegetarian for three-ish years. Was your decision to stop eating meat entirely about the morality of it? Did you not feel sick once you started eating meat again? I became veg as a personal challenge to see if I could do it for a week and pretty much immediately I realized how gross the concept of consuming their bodies is
Starting point is 00:29:35 and I was too icked out to ever go near the stuff again. Despite eating meat on average twice a day beforehand, I didn't even want to consider the morality of the meat industry because the suffering that goes into most products we consume is genuinely horrific on such a grand scale. See, Alex was the opposite. He didn't get grossed aren't he had meat? He had some chicken and couldn't fucking, could not control himself. No, because I'm not on the same playing field as this commenter whereas I actually value the pleasure of eating meat
Starting point is 00:30:05 as a like valuable thing an undeniable pleasure. That is part of it to me it's like what our brain is designed to be omnivorous and there were definitely kind of health reasons too I was very skinny when I was
Starting point is 00:30:25 a vegetarian. Extremely skinny I probably was not getting the correct vitamins the right calories well probably wasn't ingesting enough yeah and that's not to say
Starting point is 00:30:39 that that's inherent to a diet like that yeah but as soon as I switched to eating more meat that became a lot easier for me I feel like I'm much healthier um so you just like chicken
Starting point is 00:30:52 but I think it it also does come down to where you live what you have accessibility too. Yeah, true. True. Someone who's like
Starting point is 00:31:03 living in fucking L.A. Yeah, like you have options. Whereas us like because that's the joke. We may have the options
Starting point is 00:31:14 but it costs a lot more to go like vegan or vegetarian or whatever. To meet the same it's a lot of work. It's not like a half
Starting point is 00:31:27 ass thing. You've got to actually like think about okay I'm not eating meat now I've got a supplement B12 there are other vitamins I've got to think about yeah and make sure there's like a range tablets and shit they cost so much money mm-hmm they're not cheap but I think the takeaway is just to just to think about it just to actually be aware of it in some way and have it in your mind mm you know actually think about it because it's interesting you got to think about where these things come
Starting point is 00:31:58 from if you're ingesting it day and now yeah yeah it's got to be part of it all right bros we haven't done a actually pill and face can get us into the topic here we haven't had a section lately in a while uh to do with this what have you guys been watching playing listening to you lately it's from pill and face hmm pool and face always with the good questions yeah Ah. Well, there is one thing that we've all listened to. Yeah, we've all been listening to Drake's new album, a pretty fucker boy. No, Kendra Klamar released one of the greatest albums ever made, and it is the greatest album ever made.
Starting point is 00:32:46 Wow. Talking about Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. Yeah. You know what, honestly, based on one song alone, I agree with James. Really? One song on this album justifies the whole album existing. Which one's that? Auntie Diaries.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Auntie Diaries. Yeah, that's an exceptional song. Yeah, to me it's obscenely good, and the penultimate song on the album. Mother I sober. Yeah. Yeah, that's incredible. Big fan of you, noted in grief, too. I think a good album opener is always like a really...
Starting point is 00:33:24 Yeah, yeah. Powerful thing. Yeah. But to me, this album, it's not been a package for me. It's been like, I've, like, where I, start the album at the beginning, listen through it, just over and over and over. Yeah. It's been, like, I attach my full focus to a few songs. Mm-hmm. And they just grasp me and suck me in, and I go on this ride. And it, they are like, they're cinematic in this.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Yeah, it's very grand. It's, it's very intellectually stimulating as well. Yeah. Yeah, it really makes you think and consider, like at the start of the album where Kendrick talks about, like, it wasn't even the start of the album, it was, um, his, single he released before oh the heart part five was it yeah yeah yeah that's a note we talked about um perspective like he criticizes culture as well in that yeah but life is like your perspective mm-hmm and hearing it it's been the most valuable thing to me with music and for someone to like come out and say
Starting point is 00:34:46 specifically that yeah I appreciate the fuck out of it is yeah because I was never really that into damn I'm a huge fan of butterfly
Starting point is 00:35:00 that was my favorite album of his this one's kind of too new for me to really rank it or anything like that yeah but I prefer this style but I was saying to you a few weeks ago whenever it came
Starting point is 00:35:15 out I'm not sure what song from it really is like a humble type this year yeah one everywhere like everyone's like if I go on his Spotify right now and 95 is the most played one yeah I saw that I'm surprised me yeah which to me is not my my favorite from the album but whatever don't matter does it yeah I think um he's done some stuff with this album which I really respect the whole mirror thing's really cool yeah
Starting point is 00:35:52 yeah the whole album is like a it's like a reflection of itself yeah yeah and just the fact like the most impactful songs to me were the ones where he he draws it back and has this sort of subtle beat
Starting point is 00:36:10 and he just talks softly and it's pure poetry and it draws you into what he's actually saying as opposed to this bombastic bier-beer yeah it's not all just about the production
Starting point is 00:36:25 yeah it's a good whereas humble like you can listen to that song you don't have to listen you don't have to hear what you're saying it sounds good whereas these songs sound good but there's
Starting point is 00:36:42 it like forces you to actually listen to the language. I don't think it's as consistent as Butterfly in terms of like this whole There are songs I'd kind of skip I reckon Yeah
Starting point is 00:37:00 From just doing a casual listen Which I wouldn't really do as much on Butterfly I can happily just listen to all that all the way through But There's another album we've been listening to I don't think James has But James hates jack wipes some reason.
Starting point is 00:37:17 Fear of the Dawn came out. Jack White's latest. And you were saying to me the other day, you think it's best album. Right? I was saying it's better than the other one. I try and find what it's called.
Starting point is 00:37:34 Boardinghouse Reach. Yeah. Which is also excellent. You didn't like it? There's one good, there's... It's amazing now. Over and over is... it's amazing
Starting point is 00:37:45 I can't describe how good at that song is but the rest of the album is fuck my favorite one from that album is hyper misophoniac I love that one I like when he gets weird yeah for sure as weird as possible the better for me
Starting point is 00:38:02 I don't know if it's sort of a knee joke reaction because I haven't listened to this album as much as you I don't think oh really yeah um but there's this feeling that the feeling i got with with over and over and over and when i first heard taking me back the like the main single from his latest album it's like this pure
Starting point is 00:38:28 excitement like how how jack white how have you done it again yeah how have you just made the the best guitar riff the best hook the like it it just sucks me in and i'll fucking love it it. Yeah, the production's just so clean. Yeah. So sharp. Yeah. It's razor sharp. Yeah. For my favourite on Fear of the Dawn so far is, I don't know how the fuck you say it. A esophobia. Mm. Which is the phobia of the sun. I googled. It's like in the song. Um, isopphobia. Isopobia. It's E-O-esophobia. And there's a reprise as well. I love a good reprise. absolutely love a good reprise who doesn't love a good reprise
Starting point is 00:39:18 you like a reprise ain't you James are you telling me you don't like a you seriously don't like a reprise you're trolling me right now you fucking with me he is James loves a reprise
Starting point is 00:39:32 yeah so we've been treated with some good music as of late yeah and uh tbh that's the majority of like kind of good content
Starting point is 00:39:46 I've been consumer TBH because you like consuming things of not very good quality yeah like I finished the Halo show
Starting point is 00:39:57 we all like Eldering that's not very good quality yeah a bit of Eldermering a bit of the Halo show the second Sonic movie I saw that which was people like love this movie
Starting point is 00:40:14 people fucking love it um like I kind of get it in terms of like honestly all they needed to do I can't believe it took them so long to figure it out was like just kind of be
Starting point is 00:40:31 accurate to imagery from the game and people will like it that's kind of it like what else is there to Sonic? Yeah have a bit of the music have a couple of the jokes and the chili dog and you have knuckles and tails in there and funny egg man like was egg man funny though he's the best thing about it Jim Kerry for sure okay but to me it's one of those things where I don't think Sonic inherently is like there's something to this you know it's not like an inherently like now that's that's the like character I want to see in a story
Starting point is 00:41:14 well just wait for the Mario movie man I just wait for part three where a certain someone's coming in that's what's going to take it that's what's going to grab James and get him into it oh the other thing I actually saw was moon night because after
Starting point is 00:41:31 yeah Jim was talking to me about it and I was like you know what I'm going to check out moon night I'm going to do it mm-hmm and it's okay the show has a good hook yeah it leaves you with like enough intrigue I feel like all these marble shows and I haven't seen the Falcon one I haven't seen so another one I haven't seen okay I didn't see Hawkeye either those are the two I haven't I think I've seen the other ones mm-hmm but they have this problem where
Starting point is 00:42:05 they tend to have quite good interesting like first acts first couple episodes so this is like this is weird this is different this is building something what is this where's this going and in the case of like moon night there's a particularly good episode the penultimate episode is really really cool as far as like exploring a character in ways that are more kind of different experimental weird like going inside someone's psyche and representing it in it It's not about this big, bombastic, world ending. But they all do the same thing in that last fucking episode where they just turn into total schlock shit.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Yeah. Like the last episode is so forgettable. And we've mentioned this on like Sardonicas before, how I think like a good ending is almost way more important than a good beginning. We can recover from. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you can recover from like a bad.
Starting point is 00:43:05 beginning or like a slow beginning yeah yeah yeah you know because you're gonna remember you're gonna remember the end last section yeah you're gonna remember what happens at the end yeah and if it ends on like a whimper like a kind of yeah boring some just some shit you've never you've seen loads of times yeah the big epic thing going to all the all the CG things going but it felt so pandering as well mm okay I hate I hate that shit now with like the whole left right
Starting point is 00:43:36 bollocks going on like with oh they're forcing women into roles in Hollywood fuck off but when it's like are you an Egyptian superhero
Starting point is 00:43:50 yes I am an Egyptian super hero it was like are you doing this just because like you need to raise the stakes and show off that it's an Egyptian superhero just let it be an Egyptian superhero Yeah
Starting point is 00:44:07 Then point it out Then it looks like you're like pointing at me Look how great I am for making an Egyptian And there's also kind of a production problem With these shows where They're so stretched thin in terms of how many Of these fucking shows they're making How many of these movies that Marvel are releasing
Starting point is 00:44:26 And every I'd be willing to bet every single shot Requires some amount of Visual effects work Yeah without doubt. Especially when you're getting into these characters like Moon Night where he has these like powers where he's turning into this like mummy guy and he's got his like sidekick
Starting point is 00:44:46 this is a CG birdbrain creature. Yeah. And to be fair to Moon Knight compared to some of the other Marvel shows, there's like a lot of handheld camera work that like hides a lot of the like more Dodge CG stuff. But they can't avoid the ultimate. conclusion of the some kind of weird looking it's like what's the point of making
Starting point is 00:45:10 a TV show if you're basically trying to meet the scale of the movies but you can't match it yeah yeah Wonder Vision had that problem big time in that last episode yeah yeah but Hawkeye had the same thing
Starting point is 00:45:28 fucking really do that same thing yeah they all have to exaggerate to such a degree where it's like Ooh, Avengers level threat. Mm-hmm. It gets boring as fuck, man. But yeah, it turns into the two CG guys going... Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:43 Yeah. But they did such an effective job of... Oscar Isaac alone carries this show for a huge portion. And they do a good job of making you like and want this character to succeed. So why do we need to raise the stakes? to such a degree when we could just have that character be in peril. Yeah, especially because in the first few episodes of Moon Night there's this kind of cool stylistic choice where you're following the kind of side of Moon Night that has no idea
Starting point is 00:46:19 what's going on. And there's kind of this like smash cut thing they keep doing where it's like skipping over the action and showing the aftermath. Yeah, yeah. And that's like a cool, oh, I love like interpreting like violence and just see the aftermath and letting my brain do the creative stuff because it can never, like, really match. Yeah, especially for a TV show where they literally can't match. Yeah, and it was, like, focusing more on, like, the character's reaction to it and how confused and disturbing it was to him. That was, like, really engrossing to me, but as it goes on, it kind of gets sillier and sillier.
Starting point is 00:46:54 Yeah. What do you think of Moonlight, James? I have not seen it. Oh. I will not see it. Little, little. Yes Huh
Starting point is 00:47:05 I am not a Marvel fan I do not have the time to invest in this Unless Camel's in there Yeah if Camel's in there I'm going to like it And it doesn't matter if it's good or not If Chloe Zow directs it You're gonna love it
Starting point is 00:47:18 Yeah straight up You know there was plans to have Camel In Moonnight What You're joking No the like He was planned to be in it But it would have cost him
Starting point is 00:47:32 much money to have a minute well like as his character from the atonels yeah yeah because like it's a whole Eternals thing he was gonna be in it in like a flashback to ancient Egypt or some shit oh I see yeah it's a bit much yeah a little bit much maybe if I'm everyone loved the Eternals and it was a huge like critical darling but nobody loved that apart from James they wanted to distance themselves from you want to know the hard truth hmm don't actually like the Eternals no don't you saying that don't say that brother. I've got to be will. This is a real
Starting point is 00:48:04 podcast. I can't live the lie anymore. So what? Were you lying in that review we did? Good thing it's out of focus. Yeah. What do you mean? Good thing it's so in focus. Thank you. We'll see you after these messages.
Starting point is 00:48:25 Life can be a dick sometimes. So get your dick from out your hand. And don't be a dick. wear a dick the head t-shirts available now check the description below welcome to the second half of the jarcast where we answer questions from the community head over to the suggestion thread on the sub-reddit if you want to leave questions for us to answer on future episodes just like goatsie for eyes did who's going to start us off here I recently witnessed a friend of mine drink his tea and then suck the tea bag of flavor at the
Starting point is 00:48:56 end are there any passionate suckers on the podcast okay Okay, problem here, why is the tea bag left in the cup? Mm, it's supposed to brew it and remove it? Yeah, you let it prove for a certain amount of allocated time. If you're like Alex, you have a timer. You've got that shit meta game to a max. Then you add your milk, done. Hey, Siri, start a timer for three minutes.
Starting point is 00:49:20 Is there to suck? It's the same way that, like, this is the thing that divides England. Milk, while tea bag is. in or milk when teabags out. Milk first or, yeah, one of these. Actually disgusting. Milk goes... You don't fucking pour the milk in and like straight
Starting point is 00:49:39 out of the bat. You've got to fucking let it brew, take the teabag out, then pour the milk and you got your mug, you've got your cupper. You don't be adding milk beforehand. That's disgusting. It's easier to measure like the strength, surely.
Starting point is 00:49:55 If you brew it first and then not everyone likes to drown their tea in milk some people like a little splash but at the same time make sense because they like fucking Costa well yeah they don't they just want milk
Starting point is 00:50:09 just don't just cut out the tea cut out of the coffee just drink fucking milk I feel like we've glossed over the the sucking of the tea bag thing and how like to stop it is I'd say that's more normal than putting milk in while the tea bags in the mug no that's not more normal
Starting point is 00:50:24 no that's not one normal that's straight up no it's not I'm not gonna put judgment on this man for this person for sucking this the tea bag you all like sucking things okay a flavor that's what they're saying they're doing it for the flavor whereas i thought the whole point of like brewing the tea bags is because the like the tea bag is like really strong you know on it's a bag you just put a tea bag in your mouth like well it's going to be pretty strong tea well yeah exactly that's pure tea you got to you got to brew it
Starting point is 00:51:00 That's purity. This is just It's anti-establishment in a way that's really bothering me. Yeah. I like this person. You can't break the prerequisites. G.D. Pippop has something that might break all the prerequisites. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:20 Most euphoric moment of your lives. Something that made you say, Let's fucking go. Um, drinking protein, sloppy floppy powder. Probably I'm losing a pound to that scam Like a genuinely fork moment No but did that say Make you say let's go
Starting point is 00:51:41 Or did that make you say Oh shit Let's hold hold off I went let's fucking Oh no No No can I be real Yeah go for it
Starting point is 00:51:53 The first Apex win Mm Of all Yeah the first ever won It was like Oh I need that hit again. Mmm, let's fucking gay.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Yeah. I'm not really a kind of let's fucking go kind of guy. Me and James certainly are. Yeah, you guys are, so you guys answer. The most euphoric moment. Um... When I got all the achievements in Assassin's Creed. Who?
Starting point is 00:52:22 When I beat Gwyn in Dark Souls 1, I mean, that's a moment right there. That was like a... Sort of moment When I Had my first Like mad game of Titan 4 2 I feel like
Starting point is 00:52:38 Let's Go moments To me A very video gaming Yeah Yeah So kind of in innately tired Yeah Let's fucking go
Starting point is 00:52:48 OREX the Taken king Let's fucking go Oh dear Stick em up has one for you Jim Quick one for Jim How old is Billy the cat? And how long have you had her? Um, I'm not sure.
Starting point is 00:53:05 I think she's roughly the same age as Argy. Yeah, she's younger. She's a little bit younger. And Argy's what, six? So I've had Billy like five years? Yeah, she's five, six years old. A bit more than five years. Bit more than, uh, meow?
Starting point is 00:53:26 Ronald McMommy has one for us. out of memory what's your favourite meme about the podcast and its members that the JARM media community has created whether it's a meme from the subreddit or YouTube etc don't really know
Starting point is 00:53:42 James is there shut the fuck up I've been as of late and this is like a recency thing but the bear bear memes on the subreddit have been class James
Starting point is 00:53:58 doesn't agree, but people signing off or signing in through a jar little question with Bear Bear there was one there was a brilliant one I saw that had some kind of spin on the boat. It's the iteration
Starting point is 00:54:14 that gets me. It's like it doesn't end with it just being established that's just the beginning. Yeah. You know? It's like where can this go? What potential does this have? That's the exciting part to me. So Bear Bear Bear is my current My current one, you know.
Starting point is 00:54:29 James. James especially loves Bear Bear, so do it more for James, if you need any reason. Thou Houdied, has one. A few days ago, Idubs hosted the Creator Clash, a huge charity boxing event where numerous popular YouTubers went through extremely hard training to brawl it out in the ring. My question, if all three of you were to have hypothetically been involved in this, Which YouTube personalities would you want to take on? Rip Flute had some suggestions if you want to see what these are like. Yes, give a shoot. Alex versus Colossal is crazy.
Starting point is 00:55:09 Yep, no, that is the only one. That has to happen, literally. What about Jang Bricks? Okay, Jambricks or Colossal are crazy. Jambricks or maybe Iceman 3X? Okay, yeah. James versus the Actman? That works.
Starting point is 00:55:27 iron iron yeah that works really well and Jim versus legal eagle I don't know either I don't know legally eagle either no but I was just going to say me v James mm you know it's got potential
Starting point is 00:55:42 yeah yeah yeah I would I would train so I would fucking goon my life away just to train to fight you in a boxing match yeah but I train so hard no because the problem would be if all these random YouTubers was 12 and it's just like
Starting point is 00:55:58 because we just fucking steroid it do a year of just pure steroids and then walking to this boxing match just the most whipped fucking human's imaginable and just beat the shit out of each other. Make all of these other YouTubers look like pussy ors.
Starting point is 00:56:14 Yeah. Yeah like we actually need to just rack each other. Yeah. Like make it so that you know, boxing fans are like fuck. They are just going in. Isn't like the Rock's a YouTuber, isn't he?
Starting point is 00:56:30 No, technically. Yeah, no. Yeah, he is. You've got a channel? No, because it was me. No, it'll be me and Jamie versus the walk. Yeah, that's more fair. Mike Tyson's also a YouTuber though.
Starting point is 00:56:45 Yeah. Oh, is it? Okay, Mike Tyson and the Rock versus me and James. You take left, I'll say right. Yeah, it's like some Star Wars shit. Anakin goes slowly on the left. No, I'll do what I feel like James, your arm's gone
Starting point is 00:57:03 Mike Tows and bit it off We've got a good one here actually From Fobb 911 with a little anecdote High JARCast I'm a fairly newer jarling and I just wanted to let you know that I'm using the jarcast in a positive light I'm struggling with weight loss I've been struggling with weight loss
Starting point is 00:57:21 most of my life and finally decided to commit to a strict exercise regimen I've been going to the gym regularly for about a month now in the last two weeks committed to going every day. My ideal weight loss goal is to get from my current weight of 220 pounds to 160 pounds, which is the middle healthy zone for my height on the BMI scale. I usually work with muscle in my free time as a hobby. So for exercising, I prefer, sorry, music, not muscle. I don't know how I misread that, but so for exercising, I usually prefer to listen to podcast, a more easy listening type content. I find the jarcast
Starting point is 00:57:53 to be perfect for this sort of thing, as generally the episodes are around an hour. which is the perfect amount of time to start and finish a podcast during a cardio session. I'm working backwards through the JAR Media Podcastography. I should be able to get through most, if not all the casts, in around a year's time. And be a fully fledged Jalling, who knows all the memes, but more important, me don't. Hopefully by then I'll be close to my goal. Just wanted to let you know that the cast is helping someone turn their life around. Maybe in a year's time, I'll give the cast a progress update.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Thanks, guys. Maybe this guy needs to fight the rock. Yeah, he's too much of them here. Yeah Yeah No My advice is that Like with that
Starting point is 00:58:31 It's like There might be a point where You might get ill Or something in your life Might get in the way And that you will probably Struggle To get back into the healthy routine
Starting point is 00:58:41 Because it is Once you stop For briefly It's like getting that motivation Yeah And drink Sloppy protein Beautiful drinks
Starting point is 00:58:50 They're great Snort it actually Snort the powder Snort the powder Snort creativity ingest it any way you can. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:58 Drink lean. Cretine extreme. Drink lean, maybe a dash of creatine. No, that is it, though. Because once it's in your routine, it's there. Then you get ill. Yeah, I didn't even get ill this time. I was just like, I can't ward anymore.
Starting point is 00:59:17 Okay, a jar of the last year. You play these mental games with yourself where it's like, oh, if I'm, I missed this. this day so what these mental gymnastics yeah yeah it's like okay I didn't go today I'll go tomorrow oh man I'm knackered today I'll go tomorrow yeah fuck after today I just can't go yeah mine was the weekends the weekends destroyed my routine because we go for coffee in the morning it's like when you go in there you're looking at the beautiful cakes the brownies the and you can get pancakes it's like yeah I'm gonna get
Starting point is 00:59:54 them and then I can't, I'm not a gym today because I've been eating shit. And then it's like I'll go tomorrow and then the next day it's like I've still got brownie to eat then eat the brownies so it's no point going to the gym and gone. You see that that logic I think is very no you've got to eat healthy to get the maximum gains
Starting point is 01:00:13 brother. I got to eat five brownies then Jim. Yeah. No that's bulking I'm not trying to bulk. That's maximum gains. No, maximum gains. If you can integrated to the point where it's like okay even if I didn't go to the gym I'm doing like 30 push-ups
Starting point is 01:00:31 not necessarily at once I'm doing 30 push-ups throughout the day it could be 5 then 5 then 5 then 5 then 5 then 5 then 5 then 5 then 5 then 5 but I'm doing 30 just like have that baseline that you're meeting
Starting point is 01:00:48 and what what you find with it is that it gives you more energy once you get back into the routine after It's the hardest Just getting it going It's the hardest part Yeah
Starting point is 01:01:00 But once it's going It's like holy shit Like every day I'm waking up And I feel invigorated I can do more That's the thing That's the crazy thing Because you have this preconception
Starting point is 01:01:12 When you don't have this Religious Like exercise routine That Every day I'm just gonna be knackered because I'm like expelling so much energy like how can I keep this going but once it is going
Starting point is 01:01:28 your brain is like well I'm expecting this so here's the energy for that and there's like an excess of energy so you do genuinely just feel better yeah it's like no negatives basically yeah unless I guess you get addicted
Starting point is 01:01:47 yeah if you get addicted to looking at yourself in the mirror and wanting biceps the size of arnie's, then you're going to start taking steroids and your balls are going to shrink. Mr. Cool 57, has a little shout-out. Hey, J-JAR, listening to the new app and just heard that a guy from South Carolina commented.
Starting point is 01:02:10 This is insane to me because I thought it was the only Southern Jarlane. What I'm trying to say is it's really cool how far JAR reaches. What are y'all's thoughts on this? Is it hard to comprehend how wide around? reach you guys have. Thanks for all the content. Game on and bear bear. Sorry, James. You can't, you can't actually comprehend it. Like, the amount of people listening from around the world, your brain is not designed to comprehend that type of thing. We're not talking. It's like, it's not a small amount of people. It's like thousands, right?
Starting point is 01:02:41 So it's like, I can't picture a thousand people. Like, there's, like, I can't. There's so many people. Like, I can't picture a hundred people. Yeah. And all these people have, they have the own, they are the main characters of their own lives they've got so much going on and I was supposed to like imagine that going on I can't and there were two replies to that
Starting point is 01:03:00 comment one from stick them up saying Kentucky and Jarling here and another one Dian one Jarling from Alabama here we got all sorts we got them all Alabama yeah I like that I think that's cool but we can just reference some random country
Starting point is 01:03:16 and chances are there'll be a Jarling that's like oh yeah it's me like at least one Mm-hmm. Okay, then. Mongolia. All right, the one Mongolian Jalling, let us know. Azerbaijan.
Starting point is 01:03:30 Burma. South Korea. North Korea. Monaco. The North Korean Jarling is going to be the one that week. It makes a change. I'm risking everything to come in. What about this one?
Starting point is 01:03:52 Uh, don't touch. The Gayest J-R fan. How do you, Mingers? Someone on the last cast asked about YouTube as you watched growing up, and it made me think about something I tend to ignore. From the same age as Alex, and whenever people talk about things they did growing up, I feel this strange sense of being late to my own childhood. I was very sheltered by my religious parents, and as a result, missed a lot of things that seem essential to my generation. For example, I didn't have access to YouTube until I was 16 in 2010, and wasn't allowed to play violent.
Starting point is 01:04:21 games until I got a job and brought them myself. Also anything dealing with magic like Harry Potter or Yu-Gi-o was off the table. It feels like being both older and younger than I am. Older because for most of my childhood my only entertainment was going outside or reading books and younger because I didn't experience the internet until the 2010s. Do you guys know anyone whose parents essentially cut them off from the outside world? Sorry for the long post game on. If you got on YouTube 2010, you still, you were in the golden age? Yeah, you just managed to sneak in that guy.
Starting point is 01:04:53 Maybe you didn't get the early days. The Wild West was what the early days were. It was, yeah, it was almost like pre-World West. 2010 to 2020, like it was like the taming of the West. Yeah. Anything before that was... Yeah, it was totally just wild and out of control. We were joking earlier about that old thing on YouTube where
Starting point is 01:05:17 if music was copyrighted, it was like a... one of like two songs was plugged in in its place whether it be bodies hit the floor or um what's the one jrown zero nine and soundscape dream scream soundscape like if you don't if you do if you can't recognize that song turn this video off you guys genuinely did such a good interpretation of that yeah if you don't know like just get out of it you know fucking leave. But what do like the equivalent YouTube watching kids
Starting point is 01:05:56 have as their version of that? What's a pew? It's like Jack Septicke's intro, whatever. It's just some YouTube. Stop at the morning to it. Stop at the morning to you, let him.
Starting point is 01:06:10 Did you guys ever know anyone that was kind of held back or limited by something like this? I have a memory of there were in my primary school there were two jehovah's witnesses and i remember them talking about what their birthdays were like so they weren't allowed to celebrate them
Starting point is 01:06:32 and they were kind of like talking to kind of peers at the table describing like yeah we don't really get birthdays but my parents on my birthday will still like do a little something for me and it's just like this weird like sort of like what are you like poor guy yeah it's just totally at the whim
Starting point is 01:06:55 yeah I know a similar sort of story and it's like a big problem we have is comparing ourselves to other people and if if you're like progressing then that's what matters
Starting point is 01:07:18 but it can be like a real problem if like your whole youth you're raised with a certain like belief system or something yeah and then all of a sudden at a certain age you don't really agree with that belief system anymore so then like what do you do with yourself you know
Starting point is 01:07:37 yeah we had the luxury of like not really having that same thing um yeah whereas I'm more or less kind of line up with a lot of the beliefs my parents have in terms of like base level kind of ethics and things like this and science and whatnot
Starting point is 01:07:57 it's just like the classic platitude of enjoy what you enjoy you know like just do you but then can you really blame someone for maybe having a chip on their shoulder for that kind of experience
Starting point is 01:08:16 so I understand what he's saying not at all yeah absolutely not at all feeling like it's because it's not the best reasoning is it like sorry um kiddie who really wants to buy a start a hugo pack now magic's involved sorry about that that's too superstitious yeah you can't like mingle with these friends yeah yeah you can't make new connections with your friends over the over the toy basically yeah they're like meaningless toy that's just for fun yeah it's it's it's not fair but i mean like you you always have the opportunity to like branch into your thing yeah which they they did once they said they got money and stuff like they can
Starting point is 01:09:04 yeah yeah yeah play gta four i mean even to a degree that was a thing for me content. Well, I had a bunch of friends that were like big into GTA 4 and the online on that. But because of the preconceptions of what GTA was from my parents, I wasn't allowed it until I reached a certain age. And by the time I've reached that age, like it was done and gone for that like group of friends but it's like okay I didn't have that then but I can I can go down the road I want now yeah I wonder what our like equivalent thing would be so on one hand I do get it like putting your yourself in like our mother's shoes for example yeah there's nothing about video games yeah the big video game called
Starting point is 01:10:12 literally call grand theft auto yeah has when all you're hearing yeah you hear other parents school shooters are born from yeah yeah this kind of shit yeah so it's like not worth holding a grudge and it's just like well
Starting point is 01:10:28 later on in life I got GTA 5 and I sacrificed my whole future for that game so fucking good let's do a couple more here Goof Face 2. That's one for us. Hey Jarlings. So my younger brother has announced that he plans to move to New Zealand next year for a year to further his career. He's a veterinarian that specialises on farm animals, specifically sheep and cows. I want to get him a going away present and want to know what's something that maybe he'll find useful or need owing to it not being readily available over there. Or alternatively, what's a gag present that will immediately single him out as a pomp? I know that's an Aussie term, but I don't know a Kiwi version. what the things are i recently for my dad's birthday who's a kiwi um i got him some new zealand marmite or was it veggie mite i think it's marmite right because that's like a different
Starting point is 01:11:30 the veggie rights like a different it's the marm it's specifically the new zealand marmite um but that's kind of the inverse of what the question was asking um yeah which makes it harder I remember when, like, because her mum is British, the things she would talk about that she would crave when she lived in New Zealand for a bit. Things like certain confectionery. You're going to be missing out on, especially if you're like a Brit.
Starting point is 01:11:57 That's like, obviously going to be a bit deaf. Well, the thing is, they're talking about an Aussie slang for something, which makes me assume that they could be Aussie, but an Aussie person going to New Zealand doesn't seem not that big of a deal. That might just be in terms of it, but palm is an Australian thing as they say, so why would an English person know Australians get a slang if they weren't in Australia?
Starting point is 01:12:18 Yeah, it's hard to know. Buy them a border collie. What? By the egg present? No, they're working for farm animals. Border collies, farm animals. They might really have one. Buy one.
Starting point is 01:12:33 How do you think they organise them sheep? Buy one. Buy them teeth and lips. From Sainsbury's. You're telling me you don't have a gag present. Get them a Shrek 3 on Blu-ray. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:48 Unless they really like it, then it would just be a good gift, so. Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Surely you know your brother better than we do. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:12:57 Yeah, stop relying on us to figure out your gifts. I don't think of a funny brother to piss him off. I don't know a single thing about this guy. Stop it. It's too much pressure of them. It's really blowing a lot of pressure on me. I don't know it.
Starting point is 01:13:16 Whoa, whoa, wait. Stop. Right. I can't read this one because it's too messed up. So we can end on this one from Lost Headcrab. I've been seeing exams recently and things like regular analog watches are banned now because they cannot be told apart from smart watches. Do you think there will be a point where exams become obsolete when technology advances to the point
Starting point is 01:13:40 when everyone has Google glasses and Elon Musk brain chips what do you think they'll find some way of getting around that um they need some way to organise us I suppose they can have the technology we're all going to be plugged in into the same thing and we're just going to be like
Starting point is 01:13:57 a supercomputer we're surely like surely the ideal is school is some kind of like machine you hook yourself into and it like injects information it's like here you go that's not fair What's better, you plug some...
Starting point is 01:14:12 No, you plug some kid into this thing and then his brainpower just is a resource to the internet. It's like a giant brain. Yeah, but then kids aren't getting smart. They're just being told what to think. No, they're not being told... Their brain power is being used.
Starting point is 01:14:30 The government will control us. Yes, we're going to be controlled. And... Excuse me. Well, yeah, it's going to become obsolete because everything becomes obsolete, but what was it going to be replaced by? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:14:47 Nothing. It's Duma James is coming out. Oh, no. Doesn't Duma things? Like, I don't know what technology's going to be in the future. If you tell me what technology we're going to have in 20 years, I don't know because technology advances not quickly. This is actually how nuts it is, though,
Starting point is 01:15:02 because, like, in our school lives, we were told, oh, you're not going to have a calculator laser in your pocket 24 7 We literally have a bank account in our pocket now Yeah We can
Starting point is 01:15:16 We can We can buy Costa for free If we've bought enough Costa I can literally order 10 calculators from my pocket Yeah And then do like an equation I can get a pizza
Starting point is 01:15:28 Delivered to this house Using calculations Through my bank account Like right now Surely they don't even do that anymore Because that's how the exams are organised There was a calculator
Starting point is 01:15:39 and the non-calculator? Yeah. What's the point of the calculator and non-calculator? Yeah, the non-calculator was supposed to be a test of not having a calculator available. That's what he was testing.
Starting point is 01:15:54 How does it work, bro? It is eventually going to be over phone. By what? No, the... By the job, assigner. Yes. You just go, Oh, this guy would be a really great one at this.
Starting point is 01:16:07 No, it's not even going to be like that. It's just going to be like babies born or do the brain chip surgery gets a brain chip, plug him in. Now he's contributing to the... You make his meta account. Give him a funny username that's like... Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:24 So when his head, he's like playing Fortnite. But in real life he's making shoes for Elon Musk. Yeah. Yeah, you can take out a loan for your first battle pass when you're three years old.
Starting point is 01:16:38 get you in early yeah teach you the systems no shit is going to get so so nuts in the next like 10 30 years you won't make a past five
Starting point is 01:16:57 James has this five theory he's been listening to how much David Bowie well not enough yeah one or the other yeah do you not wish you could do that though like I have such a bad attention span

Starting point is 01:17:41 Yeah, I was just like, oh did I did I put the dishwasher on? Hang on a minute. Oh, what was that other thing I was thinking about? Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, is that other thing about it?
Starting point is 01:17:47 Oh, hang on. Wait, what's that? Wouldn't it be epic if I did like this build and Alden Ring? Your brain just goes to like places and you're reading shit. It's, can you imagine being in like
Starting point is 01:18:00 1850 and being given a book? That's your entertainment. Yeah, it's like, can you imagine reading some of the shit we have access to now? Mm-hmm. And being like, fuck me.
