As a special treat for a special guest, Ivan serenades with an ode to Andy! Thanks to SHackerz#8091 for this weeks podcast art!

I forgot the record button and now we don't have a live thing of that. So the people who heard this heard a once in a lifetime. So does that mean have to play it again now? I think you got to play it again. Jesus Christ. So redo everybody. For those who are just listening to. Wow.

This is going to be such a botched edit, but I'm going to make it work. So for those who are not listening live who are listening to the pre-recorded version on SoundCloud, hi, this is the N6. Are you even recording right now? I am recording right now. 100%. Let me double check just to make sure. sure. Yeah, there we go. We're totally recording. So for those who are listening on the sound clouds,

hi, this is the NZXT Club podcast number zero zero eight and we have a special guest. How about instead of me introducing them again, I just play an atro song. I'm down for that. All right. That sounds pretty good. Yeah, so exactly. Once in a lifetime experience, you will never rehear what just happened. We use it like a 30 minute podcast without recording. Yeah, but this is we have Andy. Andy is our marketing PR specialist. Although it would be hilarious if we never recorded Andy's podcast. I know.

It just never existed. It's only for the live audience. Yeah. And no one has requested to be on this podcast more than Andy. Because I love podcasting. You love NPR podcast. I love all the podcasts. I listen to like five.

What podcast do you listen to? It's a favorite podcast. My favorite. I love, it's an NPR podcast. I know. Um, there's one called Embedded that NPR does and they just like, they take a subject for like a season and they're like 20 minute episodes and they'll like deep dive and learn and also reply all. They do some crazy, crazy stuff. Like, um, they put spyware on someone's phone, within the office with their consent and they, um, they, he just wanted to see what, like, how easy it was to put spyware on someone's phone.

like what this person does on a normal basis. I mean, it was quite entertaining. Sounds scary. It's scary. No, it was... Sorry, I just had to write down a record on... Yeah, how can you forget to record? I don't know.

I think because this is like a very different podcast, right? That's true. And like we've, there's a lot of preparation that went on. You probably should have the recording window up instead of the... You can just a wee shop music. It's also why it'd be nice to have two monitors and stuff. Like, having a proper studio would really help out the process of having everything everything where did you go but we all could use a proper studio yeah I think it'd be nice to have it

but anyway you know it's it's whatever it's uh you know if you're if you're not listening to this live uh you should discord dot g slash nzxts or we record these podcasts every single week live and we did a poll and I think we're going to do it every single Friday the only reason we're doing it today on Thursday is because I will not be here tomorrow exactly and by proxy since you're not here I'm not going to be here sure because I'm just I mean then I'm definitely not going to be here are you working from home tomorrow Andy I probably because no one's going to be in my row. The office is always done on Fridays. Like no one shows on my Fridays. Andy asked me and Dennis every Thursday. Are you guys working from home tomorrow? And we always say

the same exact thing. Oh boy. Yeah and we're also working at the office. Oh boy. Because it's true. Like last night like I couldn't really sleep or anything. Like I woke up like at five in the morning. That's this morning. That's not even last night. That's literally the time I woke up to and like the first thing I do is I check my Twitter and I check our Twitter and our Instagram and our Facebook and just to see like what what the hot news was that I didn't miss that night. And then also to see if Andy posted anything in the in the PR Slack channel. Yeah. There's some sometimes there's late drops.

What's the what's the one thing that like, um, has there been a situation where you've woken up and I'm like, I can't believe I missed that. I can't believe I was sleeping when this happened. No. I mean. Yeah, this morning. He's like, oh my God, ninja's going to be on Fallon. Like that literally happened last night, Andy.

Oh, that I don't, I didn't have responsibility over that. I didn't say, you're on, you're on Twitter more than the social media team. You should know that? You know how many people I follow? And it's like, I like, I have to go on to people's like things. I'm like, am I following you? I never see you tweet. Then I'm like, oh, you tweet a lot because I just follow a bunch of nonsense accounts.

Like I follow like eight different Twitters. You'd be like official Twitter accounts? No, I follow like over a thousand. But like, you know when they say like baseball Twitter? Oh, like comedy Twitter. Right, right, right, right. And then, yeah. So I have like...

PC system integrated Twitter is pretty well. Yeah, no, yeah. And then then tech Twitter. Well, it's a fun thing because there's different types of tech Twitter. There's like, there's like the heavy like Elon Musk tech Twitter. And then there's the like... Our Twitter. Yeah, yeah, it's like NXT system integrator, system builder, PC Twitter.

Yeah, the bitwits and Pauls and gamers nexasies. And the Js is... The JZ. So marketing PR&D, what does that mean? What do you do all day, Andy? What do I do? What do you do? I ask myself every day.

I'm like, what do I do? So basically, I'm the dude who's in charge of all of our announcements. So whenever a new product comes out, like, for instance, well, I'll use a couple months ago as an example, the 8 series refresh and the H510 elite. Right. So for instance, what I did is I wrote the press release. Uh-huh. I sent out the press release. And then I go to people, I'm like, hey, why didn't you post the press release in a nicer way?

But essentially, that's what I do. And then I take like after all the news is settled, I go, hey, you want a case? And they go, yeah, I want a case. I'm like, all right, what color? Then they go, oh, I want white. And I go, I'm sorry. I don't got white. I got black.

And they're like, listen to you, this one instead. Yeah, I'm like, all right, you'll get that black case. But I'll send it to you. And then I send it to them, and I secure those reviews of any product that we've had over the past year. I should have a funny Andy's story. Just one. Well, I have a lot of funny Andy stories. Oh, great.

This is one of my favorite. My DMs are open people. Yeah, there you guys. Suey just posted his Twitter on our Discord. Please block them. Yeah, please block them. mute everything.

It doesn't meet anything he says. But because Andy's the guy who's in charge of sending out review units, correct? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Send out review units and then you schedule hopefully when the reviews are going to come out or you try to coordinate with the reviewers. There was, I think when the 510

or like the H-series refresh came out. They came out the same time. Yeah. It was like... Andy literally was looking at his computer and he's like, man, I can't believe

all these reviews came out all of a sudden. And I'm like, Isn't that your job to know when the reviews are coming out? Like, why is that a surprise to you? Oh, man, it's so crazy just how they're all coming out at the same time. Because they listen to me. That's your job.

They listen to me. So I was like, wow. That's what you do, Andy. It's because I listened. It drag me up a wall sometimes on the stuff that you say. Not all the time people listen. They're like, oh, we got something else to do. And I'm like, but no, the people who came through came through.

And I'm happy. Of course they would Not all the time Not all the time It's just funny That's like a That's like the equivalent Of us opening up Twitter

And being like wow I can't believe all these people Are replying Or Yeah that's literally what we want That's what we wanted to do That was the goal That's what we do every day

That's our job I mean it's good to have a sense of wonder in life Don't you think Like Don't be all jaded Somebody say Wonderwall All right guys

Pucking the guitar back in Here we go All right, guys. Thanks for the podcast. Here's a Wonderwall. Yeah. Just end it. All right.

Later, Andy. Yeah. Have a good one. Yeah. I got iOS 13, so I'm good. Let me not. Yeah, your phone's still updating. I literally looking at it, it's like it's stuck on that last like eighth percent.

I know. I know. So what do you find the hardest part about being marketing PR? What do you hate? Besides getting trolled by me and Dennis all day long. Yeah. Sometimes it's like yelling at a wall with reviewers. Uh-huh.

Do you want to drop some names? Name names, Andy. Yeah, I don't want to name names. Flash and burn, Andy. Everyone who I work with is good. Who? No, I'm not going to say. But it's like, I do like, hey, you want a case?

And there's just nothing. And then a week later I go, hey, do you see my email? You want a case? I could give you a crack in as well. I'll give you anything you want. Anything you want. Not anything. My DMs are open.

Just ask for it and I'll give it to you. Yeah, pretty much. Anything? Yeah. Just some people are hard to reach out to. But when they do, it's like, yeah, I got them. So let's say you're trying to get a hold to someone for a review or a thing that we want to do. And they're not responding.

Like, what do you do? What's the course of action you take? Do you ever stop by their house? Do you ever like knock on their door? No. Do you call them at home? Hey, this is Andy from Enzi X-T. Do you want a case? Yeah.

I'll just show up in the window with an H-210 I. And I just go like, you want to review it. No, I mean, it depends. Email, then sometimes I'll slide into the DMs. But email is usually my first prong of attack. Uh-huh. It's just like, hey. And then I'll write some.

I mean, of course, I'm streamlining what I say. Right. and like, hey, you want a case? Like, I'll, you know, make it sound a lot nicer. A lot creepier. A lot creepier. A lot creepier. What's the most passive-aggressive email you've had to send to somebody?

Because they weren't responding. Like, what kind of wording would you use for that? I don't want to be a jerk because, like, I'm kind of a face of a company. So if I'm a jerk that kind of reflects poorly on us, at least an initial. Don't look at our Twitter then. Well, that's B to C. I'm talking more B to... No idea what that means.

Business to consumer. Okay. Yeah, that's not... Like, because you... I haven't finished school, Andy. I don't know these fancy marketing terms. All these acronyms. But...

So, like, B2B, you have to be more professional. I mean, I don't send people memes. That's why you DM him from Mr. Slagai in disguise. Yeah, I go. Why aren't you emailing me back? Yeah, pretty much. I thought we were cool. man, I sent you a case.

Yeah. You said the cracking was really cool and chilly. Yeah. He gave it a badge. Yeah. He gave it the zeal of approval. What's, um, do you ever get people asking you to send you like free stuff? Just like, just like unsolicited?

Yeah, all the time. All the time. What's the weirdest thing have you gotten? Or like, like, like, out of, out of touch, like email to get stuff sent to you or to them? I mean, they all kind of have the same template. It's basically, it's like, you know, I'm in school and, you know, I need a computer and I want to start streaming. And like, I know I can make it. Just give me a shot.

And like, I won't let you down kind of stuff. And it's just like, I feel for you, dude. Or do that. But I. Ladies can be beggars too. You know, I'm a, anyone can be a beggar. But I would love to give you a PC, but I mean. But I'm a Mac guy.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm a Mac guy. Sorry. Only, only. So you've got the iPhone, you got the iPad Pro, you got the Apple Watch. Do you have a Mac at home? Yeah. Yeah.

I have a PC and a Mac. Max can't game. He games on a Mac. Oh, yeah? I did it before I became a PC gamer. That's why he only plays Blizzard games because they're the new ones who make Macports. No, I boot camped. I boot camped.

Oh. But I boot camped to play. play a blizzard game. But they make native Mac ports, don't they? Not Overwatch. Oh, really? When I started playing Overwatch on PC, I didn't have a legit PC. I had a legit Mac,

but I couldn't play without boot camping. But luckily, I had a free copy of Windows because CSUF, I was in a like a project management class, and they gave us a bunch of free software because I was a student. So I just took that Windows 10 key and inputted it into my boot camping process.

I'm sorry, it's just like the way that Andy says things, they just always like just. I don't want to talk. I just like listening to this guy talk all day, man. I appreciate that. So for those that. I got OS 13.

For those don't know, Andy is a super big Overwatch fan and actually goes to OWL Overwatch League events all the time, right? Yeah. I have a funny story about that Oh boy Oh boy Let's go

Let's go So I guess When OWL Whatever First launched They launched like around Bliscon a couple years ago No it launched

It's 2019 2018 They had the World Cup Oh no it was I know you're saying It was a World Cup Yeah So it was

Bliscon weekend Right Like two years ago And I'm just scrolling through Twitter You know like this is like at midnight scrolling through Twitter

and all of a sudden I just stumbled across this video of Andy dancing like Elaine from Seinfeld I don't know you guys are familiar with but Google Elaine from Seinfeld dance you don't know what I'm talking about

I guess Gen Z don't know Seinfeld but it's coming to the Netflix I just see this video of Andy like on a stage like just dancing like Elaine with like glow sticks or something in his hands and there's no glow sticks I wish there were glow sticks yeah so anyway I thought it was

really weird, but I was like, okay, well, Andy's the weird dude. I'm just going to ignore this. I just like scrolled past it. And then like a minute later, I'm still scrolling through Twitter, and I stumble across his other video. And like the caption of the video said something like, damn, this guy, mad dogs, professional Overwatch player. It's crazy. Let me tell me that. Okay, all right. So I'm like, well, that's an interesting video title. Let me check it out. And so the video is, I guess they were playing the Overwatch World Cup and, some team won. I was in the...

Let me tell my story. Okay, okay. So then some player throws a jersey into the crowd and this guy catches it. And then next thing you know, you see Andy who's sitting right next to this guy. He just like stare,

gives him the dust stare, grabs the jersey with one hand, just like yanks it away from him. Okay. Yes. And even the announcer even called it out. He's like, yeah, so he zoomed in on your face and everything.

All right. Yeah, and that was Andy's Overwatch moment. He's a shirt snatcher. Yeah, I was, so what it was was the player XQC, he's a very controversial player, but he's Canadian.

And I was in the team, Canada cheering session. So that makes sense that. Yeah, it makes sense. Yeah, no. He's Canadian guys. I mean, I was in the Canada section, so I had to give that context. You are the most Canadian person in this office.

Yeah, I love Canada. I like the Blue Jays. They're like my third favorite American League team. Who's your favorite baseball team? Dodgers. Right? Yeah. Yeah.

And why do you have an Angels hat? I have hats of almost every team. I collect hats. I'm a collector. So I don't pick and choose. When you're a collector, you just collect. Andy's an enigma. How is this a mysterious?

Well, okay, baseball, for example. Oh, boy. Andy Andy loves baseball like he loves baseball more than anyone I've ever met in my life and I love baseball too

I grew up playing baseball actually when I interviewed Andy all we talked about was baseball and baseball video games at show yeah so I'm a baseball guy and he's a baseball guy

but then one day Andy casually mentioned after the Dodgers lost their second World Series in a row and I was complaining about Kirshah

and Andy said well you know wins don't matter matter in baseball. They don't. And I was like, what the heck are you talking about? That's literally the only thing that matters in any sport, not just baseball. It's wins. It's you play to win the game. And then he said, that's a, that's a misleading stat. Wins aren't, wins don't depict who the real better team is. And I was just like, for a picture. Okay, you can't tell me anything about baseball anymore. For a picture. So then, I, you know, for the longest time, he's like this, you know, big Dodger fan. And then one day, I guess he was going to a baseball game with, Abonet or something. And he shows up to work, but he's going to go to a Dodger game and he shows up to work wearing a Padre's,

a Padre's shirt with an angel's hat. I don't know. I'm only wearing that angel hat one. I was just like, why are you wearing that? And then, uh, I forgot. Yeah.

So then I asked him, like, did you play baseball as a kid? He's like, nah, never played the game. Why are you even? I did it until second grade. I was horrible. My last year made contact with the, ball once and it was foul.

The only time I ever got on base was a walk or a hit. Like hit, I got physically hit by the ball. Andy, the kind of got to get hit by a ball and then, sir. I was happy when I got hit by a pitch. Because I guess I was just... He got on base. Yeah. And I would attempt to steal.

No. It's fun. So Andy's also, believe it or not, a very big streamer on Twitch. Oh, so big. Big boy affiliate. And mixer. Oh, and I'll mixer. Yeah.

So you want to tell a story? Nah. I'll let Andy tell it. That you took my mixer account? I didn't take your mixer account. Oh, someone did. And I believe. I registered a mixer account.

Yeah, and the same as I. I chose my username. Yeah. And I'm, you know, I'm on a stream on it. Good. I'm glad. It's a good name. I've been literally took or chose.

Andy's name for Mexican Yeah, because it's funny because I wasn't giz and crap about it too. Like for the longest time Andy wanted you become a affiliate on Twitch or something? Yeah. So every day he'd be like,

I'm this close. I need to do this. And like every day he would like, you know, hit a milestone. And he was doing this for a couple weeks. And then he comes in one morning and he's like,

hey guys, I finally got it. I'm an affiliate. And then like a minute later, Ninja announced that he's quitting Twitch. So literally as right when Mr. Sly guy gets affiliate on Twitch, Ninja quits. There's more those Twitch Prime for me.

Everyone flocks to Mixer. So I did too and I just registered Mr. Sligo in the sky on Mixer and I'm parking it and I'm going to sell it to Andy one day. Yeah. I'm glad. That's the shrewd business move right there. Once Andy gets big enough, we're going to be like, oh, hey, you want this name here on mixer?

Are you going to have to? Yeah, like, what's the... Like, trolls. Or I can just... Domain trolls. I can just like become like the most popular mixer channel and just keep the name. Just like take over your identity. You know what?

I'll be happy. I'll be happy for you. Sure. Yeah. Because... You charge your arm and leg for it though. Yeah. Gonna topple your entire streaming career and how much you got to pay.

You topple that Mr. Slig Guy Empire. Yeah. We got everything in my empire. No. Amibos. So Andy, what do you stream? I guess I'm a variety streamer. Mostly Overwatch.

Why do you say it like that? When I have a microphone, I just default to NPR noise or NPR voice. Overwatch, just random Nintendo games. I was streaming Earthbound for a bit and will be the show. I stream my Road to the Show character. I made an Andy. is the Andy I wish I was So I got drafted

By I think the Reds Then I got traded to the Rangers Then I complain I was like complaining to my agent I'm like I don't want to be on the Rangers Anymore And then they're like okay And then did your agent not email you back

You only hear from your agent Like once a year you're just like you're sitting on a couch And a voice goes Your agent reaches out to you what do you say? And then it's like, I'm happy. I'm not.

I'm like, I'm not. And then you don't reply to him via email for a month. Yeah. And then like, you know, I'm not happy here. I'll give you a case if you let me play.

Yeah. Yeah. And then I got traded to the Brewers. I'm happy that I'm on the Brewers because I'd rather pitch in the NL versus the AL because you get to hit. And, oh my God. I see my face on the screen. Like,

yeah, I love Jersey mics. we need a soundboard for Andy we do like a like a shock jock in the morning do you need sound effects for your stories live and I'm done in the morning with there's Andy I'm like wait is that

yeah that's Andy on Halloween was Tina yeah that's my go-to cosplay yeah it's like the fourth time of don't listen live you guys have to listen live because there are there's pictures and links and all kinds of stuff that we throw out into the other look who was my last follower at that moment it was Jared And Zixie Jared.

Oh, that's nice. Yeah, he came in and just followed me and left. I took that screenshot. Yeah, it's a good screen shot. And that's my messy room. It's really funny. That was my old IMac. Well, I made it the meme.

I added the Jersey Mikes logo. He had the new sub, Jersey Mikes. Get it? Yeah, no. No, I thought it was brilliant. Andy goes to Jersey Mikes every day. He loves Jersey Mikes. I love them.

There was a day when I first started where Andy, like, comes in and he goes, you know, I've been in Jersey Mikes three times this week. Yeah. I'm like, okay. And then he tweeted at Jersey Mikes. Yeah, and hoped to get free stuff. Yeah, he's like tweeting at them like crazy.

They did respond a bit. They replied. And then, so after they replied, I was like, all right, Andy, I'm going to give Jersey Mikes a shot since you can't. Oh, my God. Stop talking about it. Let's go. Let's go to Jersey Mikes.

This biggest eye roll right here. So a couple of us went to Jersey Mikes. and from the moment I ordered it was really weird because so it was like five of us right and we're all waiting in line and then the guy working behind the counter pulls me aside and he goes what do you want so I looked at the menu and I said I'll take a meatball sub oh my god so he goes in the back starts making the sub and then this other guy hands me a piece of paper and didn't ask for money or nothing and then they take everyone else's order and they take their money so I'm like What the heck is going on, right?

So then I go back up to the counter. I'm like, hey, you mean charge me for this? They're like, oh, I'm sorry. So they charge me. I pay, go sit down. And then, like, everyone gets their food. And I still don't get mine. And then, like, 10 minutes later, sir, your meatball subs ready.

And I walk up there to pick it up. And then the guy goes, the guy literally looked me in the eye and he goes, I made it extra special for you. I'm not supposed to add so much sauce, but I wanted you to really, you know, have a good sub. And I was like, oh, cool. Thanks, man. You know, I was like, I made it special.

He literally said that to me. Yeah. That's really weird. So then I sit down. I opened the sub and it's just like, I pick it up and it's the saggiest sandwich I've ever eaten in my life. Like everything just fell apart. Like all the meatballs fell out.

All the sauce fell out. Everything just fell out. I couldn't even eat it. And I just looked at Andy and I said, I'm going to throw us in the trash and I'm never eating here again. And I did that. I just threw the sub in the trash and I walked outside. I was like, I'm done with this place.

One thing. you're not supposed to get a hot sub. You have to get a cold sub. The reason why is Mike's way. You have to have Mike's way. I only do things Poppy's Way. I don't care about Mike. Well, Mike, I mean, Mike has some good ideas.

I feel like you're doing everything Poppy's Way sometimes leads you to having unfortunate experience at certain places. I know what I like. I'm not going to order. I know I like too, Mike's way. I like Meatball subs. And if a place has meatball subs on their menu and it advertises themselves, as a sandwich shop, I'll try it out.

You're not wrong, but I feel like a lot of places will add things to the menu, not because it should be there, but because people don't stop asking for it. I don't know, I would tell you. That's how they want to run their business, fine. Like, if I had a sub shop and I didn't make a good meatball sub, I wouldn't put it on the menu. But you're also not a giant chain, right? And if it was your own business, you do whatever you want. So I'm sure someone there's like...

It could have been a misfire too. I mean, maybe he... Mike said... We also haven't gone back. Back to that jersey mics in like forever. Because we moved. Yeah, but still, I mean, we easily could if you wanted to. It's not that much further, you know.

Yeah, actually. They're probably like equal distance, I think. The, the new Jersey mics, too, the one that we used to go to. But no, yeah, that one did suck. Like, I feel like sandwiches are not as good. Because we go to another jersey mics and I think me and Andy go. Like every Monday. Yeah, every Monday.

Yeah, every Monday as I'm too lazy to like, to like meal prep. So I just do it all like up Tuesdays. Same here. That's why I eat out every day. So. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's the end of the Jersey mic segment. Is it the end of Jersey mic?

I mean, never for me. Like, those short points are more valuable than any currency on this planet. The dollar tanks, my sure points, shore points will still be there. Jesus Christ. I like that shirt, Andy. What is that? It's a shin shirt. A shin shirt?

Oh, the shins. The shins. Oh, I got you. I got it. I don't know what, shin. He said shin, right? Yeah. It's a shin shirt.

I heard shin shirt. And I was like, shin, the guy who makes her cases? Like, he doesn't it look like him? Like, I wasn't aware that shin made shirts. Doesn't it look like him?

I mean, he has like a melty face and a disemboddy whip. The other day, Andy was wearing this shirt with watermelons. Oh, yeah. Dennis goes, hey,

hey, man, that's a pretty cool shirt. Because Dennis was running a, like a pattern shirt that day too. Yeah, I wore a little prince. Like a flower.

Just wear overwatch and baseball shirt. A flower one of a cactus one. Yeah, so Dennis goes, hey Andy, that's a nice shirt, man. And he goes, thank you. And then I look at the shirt, and it's just like a shirt covered in watermelons. And then I asked Andy, so you like watermelons, huh? And he goes, nah, not really. Because when you have a girlfriend that goes, I bought you a watermelon shirt, what are you wearing?

It's like me, like, what if my shirt was covered in Jersey Mike's logos? And then you're like, oh, you like Jersey mics? And I go, no, not really. I hate it. It's just a shirt. Like my laundry was pretty thin that day And it was like Well I'm gonna see my girlfriend that night

And she likes that shirt I met your girlfriend Yeah she's very nice No she's awesome Surprised that she's with you Yeah I know I know It's a very nice lady Yeah she is a nice lady

Yeah We play games We built her PC actually This is before I worked here And then This is bringing it back to the brand Um PR marketing.

Yeah. If you guys want to know what PR marketing does all day, that's literally, that's it in a nutshell. Yeah. That's what they do. Bringing it back to the brand. When I started building, I'll start with my build story, first build story. I was looking at cases. Yeah, I know.

You're back. And it's cut nice. I'm a head out. Just. So I was looking at cases and I'm like, I don't want something that's like obnoxious and something that. You know, like, we know the gamer case with all the lights and like it looks like a freaking hot wheel. I like, I didn't want that because as an Apple fan, I like design. I like hardware design.

Why do you drive that car? I mean, because Apple doesn't make a car yet when they do. I mean, they're thinking about it. You can buy Tesla. It's basically the Apple equivalent of a car at this point. Do you have $40,000? I don't know. Do you?

No. That's why I drive mine. You would if you didn't eat out every day. I know. That's actually true. Yeah, that is true. Do the math. It adds up.

It does add up. No, it does. It does. How much is a meal every day? It's like $10 a day for, say, five days a week. And $10 a day, that's like a cheap meal. Like, do you want like a nice, decent meal? You're talking at least $20.

Like, yeah, if you go to like, you know, Lucille's or domestic, you're going to drop $20. Domestic for sure is expensive. Yeah, yeah, I spent 15 because I get the, like, a, yeah. So that's five. I'm not going to say whatever because I get roasted. It's just rounded up $20 times five. It's $100 a week times 52 weeks a year. That's over $5,000 a year.

Yeah. Just for Jersey mics. Quick maths. Yeah. But all those short points I'll rack up. So every like 10th sub I get a regular for free. I bring my lunch every day. I know.

And that's smart. Or you don't eat at all. I'm going to. I'm going home. Sometimes I don't eat. Yeah. It just boggles me like. Old man poppy.

But I'm actually trying to be more like that and like not eat as much during lunch because like I eat a lot during dinner. Yeah, the whole three meals a day thing, it's, I don't know who invented it, but you don't need to eat three meals a day. I think it's fine. It's funny if you don't eat giant meals every, everything, because like breakfast usually is pretty big, right?

It's the most quote unquote important meal of the day. Then you go out with your Coke is at lunch and it's never like, oh, it's all cool, go grab salads, right? You guys have got like a burger or something or like a giant sandwich and then dinner is like, you know, your wife or. You're supposed to eat when you're hungry. That's what you're supposed to eat. For me, I'm hungry when I wake up, and I'm hungry when I go home from work.

I'm not hungry at lunch, like ever. That's why everyone, when everyone goes out to lunch and I go, they always freak out. They're like, that's all you're going to eat? I've never said that to you. No, but everyone tells me like, we're only going to eat that small little salad? I'm like, yeah, because I had a giant breakfast already, and I'm not even hungry right now. If you go to Denny's and get like a grand slam, it's like a thousand bucks. I don't know, a thousand calories.

I go to the fancy Denny's. Do you go to Denny's? I went like a couple weeks ago and I went a lot during high school. As Andy where he's going for lunch. She's like, I'm going to Denny's. I'm like,

why the hell would you go to Denny's for lunch? I like Denny's. I mean, it's good bad food. You can't find anything like at 12 at night after the club or something. Like I've never been to Denny's and like, man, I'm really feeling some Denny's right now. I just wanted.

I could tear up some moons over Miami though. It was pretty good. Yeah. Hey, they are good. Yeah, but I also don't like crave them. You know, like, I also, I very seldom crave Denny's. Denny's not a place I go because I want to go. I end up out of Denny's.

I mean, we don't have. My life leads me down a path where where Denny's is an outcome. It's not a destination that I seek out. Fair, but there's one within walking distance of the office. And I was like, yeah, I'll go. It's also Carl's Jr. walking distance in the subway. And soon to be at Chipotle. No, I'm so excited about that Chipotle.

Like, you don't even... Are you so excited about Chipotle? I'm so excited. I'm not excited at all about a Chipotle. The only reason I'm excited is because I hope they bring some good restaurants now. Like, tore down that pizza hut. There's that whole empty lot across the street. I can imagine if they just start building restaurants there. They had Jersey.

They should. At Jersey, Mike's walking distance. So the only restaurant I walk to from here is domestic. domestic you can oh it's a pretty we know a shortcut yeah it's not uh it's not

do you cut through the carls junior it's not we cut through the railroad tracks oh I know you're talking about there's ones where there was actually a train on those tracks that walked down and go all the way around definitely not worth it should have to drive that day so many trains around here

yeah it's annoying there's there's where we work there's a there's a train we working in a pretty industrial area there's a train line some might say it's a city of industry hey oh There's a train line on either side, right, to, I think, the north and to the south of us.

So if you want to go anywhere in that direction, sometimes we'll just come by a train. I remember once we were going at the lunch, and I think we waited like 15 minutes for this train in the past. The slowest train I've ever seen in my life. He's sitting there like, I guess you're going to wait. I was driving home the other day and right where the street I needed to turn on, there was just a train. stopped and it was this giant freight train so that there's nothing I could do and I was like well thank you like

Is that why you keep banging the table? Yeah I'm very animated when I'm I'm talking and I can't sit weird You only sit weird Oh I know it's like it prevents me from sitting weird That's the first thing Andy ever told me When he started working at NGXT was that fact That he sits weird like I sit very first day at work

Andy they set him up next to me at his desk and he's building a PC that lasted for two weeks. And then he finishes building his PC and he gets his chair and then he looks at me right in the eye and he goes, hey man, I'm gonna sit next to you

so I just want you to know that I sit like a moron and I was like, what? He's like, yeah, I sit really dumb. Yeah. Look at me, look how I sit. And then he just, he sits like on his legs

and then sometimes when he raises his desk all the time. He'll put one leg up like his captain hook or something or like the Picardy guy on the Rumbott? You mean Captain Morgan? Yeah and he's just like he has like one leg up like he's on yeah Captain Morgan

or something and then he sits down and he's like you know sitting like an Indian Indian style or whatever. He'll sit half cross-legged on the armrest and one leg straight down when he has his desk in like standing mode it's it's just all the time. It's so weird it's comfortable.

How is that comfortable? I don't know just that weird quirk that's in my brain. It's like the armist is like jamming right up your butt. No, it's on the quad. The quad. Yeah, I mean, yeah.

It works. I get by. Speaking of work. Oh, boy. So here's another fun fact about Andy. Oh, no. So he used to work at this restaurant called In and Out.

Yeah, it's a little struggling restaurant. It's like a super popular. I'm sure everyone's heard of it. Really good. and then uh to california yeah i don't know one day we were talking about you know burgers and fries and stuff and then i said something like oh in and out some pretty good fries and and he said you know i never had him and i was like wait didn't you work at in and out for like five years and he's like i did and you never had the french fries he's like nope never tried them and it's like

okay how are you going to work at in and out and never eat one french fry to me that's boggles my mind. It's like an accident, you know? It's like like, I'm sure you can like work there and like accidentally have like a fry fly into your mouth or something. Just one French fry. I was in the merchandise department. Just one French fry.

No, not while I worked there. Wow. Yeah. I wasn't really that at merchandise department. They have merch? Oh God. Do they have merch? Really?

Remember I showed you the internet university? Oh yeah. The store is baked into there. There's, unless it's changed since I work, there's three locations. One in Baldwin Park near, um, store one. first in in the is that the one you worked at yeah and also like in the warehouse

kind of stuff what did you do there the warehouse kind of stuff okay yeah and then work the store and not eat french fries and not eat french fries um it was like right next to it though right like like that yeah yeah yeah yeah of course it's for of course yeah of course yeah of course you know

exactly my normal order and I guess still to this day I get a double meat um protein style mustard fried, extra grilled onions, and chopped chilies. And no french fries. No french fries. All that order for no french fries. And then I would get, since it was weird, you couldn't, you could get up to a double

double for free, but you couldn't get like a shake for free. No fries for free? Fries for free. Animal style fries, you paid the difference. Then you could get an extra large drink for free, though. So I would get an extra large drink. and then my double meat

riveting I know it's actually funny the first time me and Ivan went to in and out I ordered my fries well done because more crispy

and I was like super blown away the fact of that one I could order him like that and like he wanted to know like how long I've been ordering

my fries like that I'm like I don't know since I knew it was a thing like I never knew that was a thing yeah there's so many things

yeah like when you were with with a bunch of in and out people like their orders are so weird they're so weird like

define define and out person. People who work at in and out. Like what he just ordered. Like I want my burger. What do you? Double meat.

Double meat. Muster fried. What is mustard fried? You know animal style? Yes. It's basically animal style. But it's like, it's without the spread, I think.

Because they put extra spread. Isn't it what makes animal style, animal styles with the spread? Well, the spread is just in general, but just again, because I try to eat healthy, just it's empty calories. That's why he noticed. no cheese. It's super healthy. And it's not the worst thing in the world.

I mean, like Jersey Mikes. Yeah, that's not the worst thing. I thought Jersey Mikes is pretty bad though because like it's like 90% bread, no? I mean, it's just a sandwich. It's the turkey sandwiches and the worst thing in the world. I get my, I get my burgers there in and out with extra toast. So they, so they toast the bottom of the buns. Yeah.

It's a little bit, you know, of like a crunch. it's a little bit you know yeah it's a special type of bread a little bit yeah but like i know like in and along with a bunch of other restaurants like like like crazy secret stuff on the menu like i know a jamba juice is like a crazy like there's a gummy bear smoothie yeah yeah yeah i get gummy verse with your captain crunch one is this on super gross yeah the gummy bear one was legit like um my freshman year yeah my freshman year in uh college um near my history class last year Yeah, you know, still in college, you know, working a job, full-time student, yada, yada. There was like a trailer right next to the classroom.

So like every day before class, well, you go like three times a week. I just get my gummy bear smoothie. And it was quite delicious. Three times a week? Three times a week. Yeah. Jesus Christ. It's a smoothie, man.

How are we not like the size of a house, do you eat a gummy bear smoothie? drinking a gumber smoothie every he's probably had a hundred gummy bear smoothies and not one in and out front not one not one not a single that's not weird right that's not weird that's not weird five years it's not weird at all andy I was I didn't say they have nice shirts go check them out they're good people I never was a kid they used to give us the little the little sticker packs we would do that in the store yeah yeah just like hey hey dude like the kid would be running around and like the parents you know like the kids run around the parents are just like oh my god like to calm them down like you know we'll focus their attention on us and like hey here's a sticker dude or do dad

and then they wouldn't be as crazy riveting i know wow i know is this going to content that you get on your stream just like stories about in and out and kids running around i don't know i what do you talk about on your stream. I don't know. I don't remember. It's like... You should know. I'll be giving out...

I mean, I usually stream with my homie. His name is at moves. I met him before. Yeah, no, he's a good dude. We call him yogi. Is he the one that you took to the N60 party? No. Yes.

To the puppy. Yes. I brought a lot of my friends and girlfriend to events here. What was the event that he took his friend to and that his girlfriend do? Oh, Christmas dinner. His Christmas dinner. She couldn't make it because she works pretty late. And then my friend took me to his Christmas dinner the year before.

We literally, and during his Christmas dinner, we went. And then we saw Star Wars after because we had like midnight tickets. So the Christmas dinner, you know, they let everyone know. If you want to bring your significant other, you know, husbands, wives, boyfriends, girlfriends, please do. So everyone brings their husband, their wife, their boyfriend, their girlfriend. And then Andy walks in. He's like, this is my homie. Yeah.

He's a good guy. He's my friend. Yeah. He was like, you know, you invited me to your party. I'll invite you to mine. You want to go? He's a cool guy too. No, he's a good guy.

Yeah. That's really nice. Yeah, we have fun. We have fun. Me and my homies. We play Overwatch. I mean, that's pretty much it. We play magic.

We do a lot together. We play Overwatch. Oh, yeah, magic. So. I love Magic. You're a big Magic, the Gathering player. What's your deck looking like? I know, I haven't played Magic.

It sounds like 12. I play E. H mostly. It's a... No, do what that means. It's called Commander. So there's legendary creatures. Do you have a dark lotus in your deck?

No, because it's banned in this format. And it's like, it's a black lotus also. Do you have a blue eyes wet dragon in your deck? Yeah, this is basically my deck. How many pieces of Exodia? Only three. I don't like the feet. One of my biggest regrets in life is I had a black lotus card.

So when magic first came out, I was in, I was in sixth grade going to seventh grade. and me and my friend went to the car shop and we bought a bunch of packs and I got a black lotus card but I had no one like no one knew this card was going to be like or any of these stupid cards were going to be worth any money right so me being a dumb little kid I traded that card for for three comic books so spawn number one two and three but then I ended up trading the spawn comic books for some freaking marble cards that are like useless now so yeah it's so unfortunate i i hate to say that i've spent more money than i would like to admit on a single card they're really good are you saying that we're paying me too much over here yes you just pay me so much money is doc

and you pay yeah so you eat out every day you buy magic cards i haven't bought in a wild i don't play as much. Okay. Because like I built my deck and it's perfect. I can't change it. What's perfect about it? It's just, I don't want to get into the weeds of magic.

Why not? What else is the podcast for if not getting into the weeds? All right, we're getting in the weeds. Yes, go. So my, my deck, I'm my head out.

I mean, it's like what, what can you perfect on it? Just like the H5 or 510. Bringing it back to the brand. Yeah, bringing it back to the brand. It's such a perfect case.

Marketing it to, folks. It's such a perfect case. Like, you can't perfect it anymore. It's just like that. Yeah, you can make it free. I mean, yeah. Yeah, you can.

Magic the Ivaning. Somebody please Photoshop Ivan into a magic deck. Please make him a card. There's a card. His name's Fibblefup. Magic. Or Magic. Whoa, whoa, listen, man, we got rules on the server.

You can't be saying this guy. I know. Photoshop Ivan into Fibblefup. But, I mean, like, I just have all the best cards for the archetype that my deck is. And my man is where they get you. Like when you're, it's like,

when you're playing, you're like, why is this card 50 bucks? I don't get it. It just does this. And you're like, oh, I get it.

I want it now. And then I went out and bought it. What does it do? It's a speed, man. I need a collector, man. I just collect. He also collects amibos. Yeah.

He used to have a huge collection of amoeboes on his desk. They're still there. They're just in the box. We just put them up. Because my monitor stands went missing after the move. You know you can ask for some, right? I have, but people ops. They'll get you some.

He asked, but no one reads his emails. Yeah, no one reads my emails. I'm like, I want stands. And they're like, yeah, forget you, dude. And I'm like, okay. Just try DM in people ops on Twitter. I had. Hey, Nicole.

Did you get my email? It's like I'm out of the country right now. Can you leave you? Yeah. But yeah, like I love Nintendo. That got brought me into gaming. The first console I ever got was an N64, like in 97. Then I think it was my first console too.

I don't count the Game Boys as like a console, but like I think my first console is like Consider a console. Yeah? Yeah. It's a video game system. It's a handheld console. It's a little different, though, no. It counts.

It counts. It's still run by a major video game company, and then they produce, like, Pokemon. It's funny because I got my Nintendo 64 when I was in high school. Yeah. My first console was Atari 2,600. Oh, wow. Have you ever played E.T? Yeah.

It's so bad. All the games suck. Like some game. Pac-Man's good. But are the Atari port, Pac-Mond is actually pretty bad. No? It wasn't as good as a Miss Pacman.

There's an Atari port of Donkey Kong. Yeah, I had that too. It was pretty bad. All the Atari games are bad, man. Oh, yeah. And ET's especially bad because you'll be walking. Then all of a sudden, you fall into a hole. And then there's like these FBI agents that appear out of nowhere.

And it doesn't really, I think you have to collect the pieces to your ship. So back when Atari was going out of business, basically, they just liquidated everything. Oh, yeah. And there used to be these toy stores called KB. toys. I don't know. I bought my copy of Super Smash Brothers. Okay, cool. So you remember. So yeah, they had every Atari game for like 99 cents.

Oh, dude, that would have been awesome. I bought like every one. Yeah, no. But they all suck, so. They do. Yeah. I mean, it's a product of its time. And it's just like, you know, I just thought it might as well buy them their 99 cents. Yeah, no, totally. Um, I feel though like NES games and SNAAS

games age well for the most part because 2D side scrolling. The most some. I'll say most of them are pretty good. Actually, I... But N64. No, I will say the only ones that hold up are the platformers. Yeah, like Mega Man.

Mega Man, Mario's, but like Mario Kart, garbage. No, yeah, Mario Kart, Super Mario Carts. It's really, really weird. Doesn't hold up at all. It doesn't. Mario Kart 64 doesn't hold up as well. Like, most N64 games don't hold up well. They don't hold up because they're like the first generation.

Yeah, they're like the first generation. Like, they couldn't do all that. Like, Ocarina time holds up pretty well, though. Yeah, I mean. And Majora. There's a few of them, but like the majority of games really don't.

Like I think I tried playing Perfect Dark once. Oh, yeah, Golden Eye and Perfect Dark today. Like, they were great when they came out, but like you play them now, it's like shooters are done so much better. What do you call it? GoldenEye is a very innovative game.

Like, it brought first person shooters basically to the consoles and it did it. Yeah. I think. No, no, actually that's a lie. It was Doom. Yeah.

Yeah. Well, that was just, Doom was mostly PC. PC? Okay. Yeah. And then Wolf was dying. Yeah.

That was like, I got my PC like in 90, 3, 94. And then when did 64 come out, I think 95? 96. Yeah. It was around the same time. Yeah. Yeah. I think the first, first FPS I played to is also Doom.

Actually, you know, this is game. My dad brought home a PC that was running Doss on it. And he taught me like how to like run the games. They put the design lines. Yeah. And you're like, can I play Fortnite on this? Daddy. Yikes.

And there's this game called, it's called Terror Wolf. It was like an anti-terrorism game. So it's basically like Doom, but instead of shooting like demons or shooting terrorists in like airport terminal and it went like a really weird direction. Like you would have this like gun that would like shoot like other guns. It would shoot like foam at people. So like it wouldn't kill them but it would like incapacitate them. And then if you took like a wrong turn, you would end up like going down.

There's like sewer with like alligators. I don't remember anything about the game. But like those two things stand out, punching alligators and shooting dudes of the foam gun. And then after that was doom and like whatever else games were like on dust at the time. Is that an Andy story? It's definitely Andy story. Yeah.

Um, you guys another Andy story. I got a good one. Oh, just lay on me. So I think it's why I did this one because we were talking about consoles. My first console was a Game Boy color, right? Oh.

Yeah. And back of that time, I didn't know that. That was my first game. Yeah. I didn't know that backwards compatibility was a thing. Right. So to me, it's like, you know, it's like anything.

You buy an ES game and it was saying Nintendo and a Nintendo system on the box or Super Nintendo was say Super Nintendo on the box. So when I brought my, when I went with my parents to Toys R Us, which is where you got games at the time, I was like, I want a game from a Game Boy Color. And the lady's like, oh, yeah, well, we have Pokemon blue and red. It's the most popular game right now. And I'm like, are you dumb? It doesn't say Game Boy Color on the box.

I don't want this game. name liar. So I got Zelda Links Awakening DX because it said Game Boy Color on the box. Still a good choice but I missed out

a Pokemon. It is. It's gotten good reviews so far. Oh man, what that came so bad. Yeah. Get it on the e-shop.

I'm going to do it. I'm going to stream it. Do it. And then I'm going to tell people to don't watch Mr. Slite guy and Spike. I'll be better at it. It's a free country.

Should do a race. You should do a dual stream race and we stream at the same time. See who can beat the game first. You'll do, You'll beat him faster. My biggest weakness is I acquire games, but I don't beat them.

Yeah, he doesn't even play game. He just buys them. I just buy them with my big fat NXT money. I'm telling you, you're paying this guy too much. I don't really sure where all my money goes either. Your food, Jersey mics. Jersey mics and games. That's all I do.

I guess I treat my girlfriend now to stuff. So I guess her. But, yeah. What's your favorite thing to take her out to go do? I mean, we like to go on little trips. Okay. Like, we go to San Diego more often than not. You guys are going to go on picnics, right?

I remember telling me that in the car of the day. No, because like my girlfriend during the summer is like, you don't take me on picnics. Sounds exactly like her. I know. Yeah, I just embodied her. You don't take me on picnics. I'm like, you want to go on a picnic?

And she's like, I'll show you a picnic. And then recently I was just messing with her and I'm like, you don't take me on picnics and she's like Are you serious? Wait so wait Who's who in the situation because you're doing the same voice

for both you guys You don't take me on picnics That's me That's because you love your homies More than me We hang out all Yeah It's time back for you taking your homie

Why do you take your homie to the Christmas dinner Because he's my Discord homie So Discord homies are more important than girlfriend Did you take you all on a picnic? No we were doing that this Saturday because I complained. I'm like, you don't take me on picnics.

It's just like, what are you going to eat on the picnic? This place called Alicia's supposedly good. Better question. Are you taking your homey out on a picnic? He might actually join. Homies like picnics too. Dude, I would take my homies out on a picnic. Just bring our switches and sit under the shade.

That's a tweet, by the way. Yeah. Thank you. Andy could have. have the most lit Twitter in the world. I can't just say twit, but and he could have it. There you go.

There you go. There you go. Thipple fup the lost. That's actually a really, really good Photoshop. Thank you, Suey. I like that. It's a homunculus.

When fipple thup, the loss enters the battlefield, draw a card. If it is entered from your library or was cast from your library, draw two cards instead. When fipple fup becomes the target of a spell, man,

that's the hardest part for playing magic for me was like reading the text and it was always like hard to decipher. Sometimes when you're like you have a card on a deck that you're not really familiar with. Because like in the format I play, you have 100 cards. Okay. That's a lot of cards. Yeah. What's the name of the format?

EDH commander. Okay. Okay. And there's not only lands are repeated. So you have let's say 40% your deck is land. So you have 60 individual cards and you don't get to play them all the time. Right. So when you see a card, you read it, you're like, whoa, this is really good.

I can't wait to play this. I'm going to show them. And then when you play it, and then you're like, ha ha. And they're like, dude, did you read the card? I'm like, yeah. And it's like, no, you clearly didn't because it's like the opposite of what you think it was. And it's like, oh, man. Because there's just one key word that changes everything.

I know a little bit about Magic the Gathering like tournaments Do you ever go to tournaments and play like Commander? Commander's not really in tournaments Okay But do you go to magic events?

I've been to Friday Night Magics actually actually I'm on Magic's website because I went to a Friday night Magic the first one I ever went to and stole someone's jersey No No No then he was he was playing Magic in the Canadian

magic section and one of the pro magic players threw a jersey and he snatched it away from him. Yeah, and it's just like, you're not getting that jersey. No, so Wizards of the Coast are some camera crew hired by them was at this car shop that I went to and they were taking pictures. And there's a picture of me. I'm wearing a Dodger shirt actually, but I have to get in the position. Like there's a whole row of people. But I'm sticking out and I'm going like,

like what? This is great for the podcast I know I know I'm like leaning out but looking very serious and have my cards in the hand and um and it's like predominantly me in the photo

and this was on actually Magic's website and I think it's some of their Facebook ads and stuff wow and the funny thing is like no wonder no one plays that game anymore I know I know I don't play against that guy Jesus but the face of magic of gathering The funny thing is My lands are very organized

And my friends are very OCD When I play So I'll just like It's just like a big mishmash And then they like when they saw the photo They zoomed in they're like How dare you have this man Mr. Sligay in the sky magic card

Actually me you can do that There's this magic um Wizards of the Roast There's this magic card creator That you can do If you I know if you win the tournament You can design a card right You feel like a big chairman or something?

I think that's a thing. No. I mean, there was the last card that I'm aware of that was like maybe a few years ago is like the community help made this card. It's called like Waste Not or something. Yeah, I have a friend who plays the Dragon Ball Z card game.

Apparently is like super huge. She's out in New York. And he's like a judge for those games. So he's like officially like a person that Bandai Namco can like or Bandai or whoever makes the cards. They can rely on. Yeah, that they'll like call out.

to go to like tournaments and like officiate games and apparently for magic there's like three levels of like a of like judge and like the higher level you are like you get like all these crazy perks and stuff like that there's some cards that they do that it's like judges promos yeah yeah and then like what's that card it's like a whole thing like like you can like get paid and like have like a living just doing like magic tournaments like i mean yeah it's really nuts there's i mean there's money in esports you just have to be good no there is no yeah no there isn't no that's why Alex is working with us now. Rip.

Rip. I mean, it's a very top-heavy thing. It's like, you know, the, the, again,

minor league players basically get nothing. I don't what that means. I don't, like in e-sports. Like, they don't get paid. But,

like, the people on the top get paid. Do they? I mean, some of the price. There's money and everything, Andy.

Just got to find it. It's got to, you just got to, yeah, you got to search for it. Got to secure the bag. Yeah. Is there money in PR?

There's always money in PR. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm clip that. I create. Is there a PR person that like you want to be like? There's no like Steve Jobs of PR. Why not?

Maybe. Yes, that could be you. Maybe. I mean, I like, the people, the business execs I admire, admire are the ones the more like, they're more marketing people. So like, Reggie Fiesimi

Formula of Nintendo he's the NOA president I did like Steve Jobs when I was littler because I like during the keynotes he was like a magician he would like

he he can be like how's this guy on my TV screen yeah how's you doing yeah pretty much no I mean he was very good at presenting products

and made you excited about them like I will never forget when the iPhone came out he's like it was like the famous line and one more thing. Like everyone knew Apple was making a phone. Yeah.

But then he's like, we got a touchscreen iPod. And they're like, and then like a revolutionary phone. Yeah. And an internet device. Yeah. And I'm like, what? People were like what? But they're like, yeah.

And then he goes, an iPad or a phone, an iPod, internet device, phone, iPad, iPhone, internet device. And then he's like, this is the iPhone. And then everyone just like went crazy. Then also when the MacBook Air was introduced, he took out an envelope and then like pulled it out and like the MacBook air is the thinnest Mac or the thinnest laptop ever and it's like, holy. It was definitely really good salesman. No, yeah. Definitely is really good at like selling it.

That's what he was great at. Like, and I like, I mean, he was a jerk. Like in his biography, like he didn't treat people well. I feel like the, but he was a good. They haven't really done anything cool in my opinion since he's been gone. The home pod man. The most revolution. No, I'm kidding.

What else can you do, though? You know, I mean, like, especially at this point with like... Well, when he was there, like, every year they would do something. Yeah, I agree with you. Even Apple stand here. It's like the new iPhone's just bigger and more camera. Like, okay, it's bigger, more camera, okay. I mean, smartphones are cool anymore.

Or like, they're just basically... Or like, oh, we have a touch bar. A worse keyboard. Yeah, the butterfly switch. We have a new iPad that looks exactly like... Every other tablet, mate, that you don't need because you have a phone that's almost the same size. Like, I don't know. That's just my opinion.

I don't know if it's like anything innovative like it used to be. The Apple card, the Apple card, man. It's just a credit card. I'm just being facetious. Like, I feel like what they're doing now is like they're just refining stuff, but like making anything new. Because like when the iPhone came out, it was new, right? It was like a touchscreen phone. I mean, I hate to say that it disrupted the smartphones because smartphones before then were just garbage.

They weren't smartphones. They were feature phones, right? Yeah. They had cool things that they could do, but they weren't like, they weren't like a... I had this like Windows phone. Yeah, this Windows phone. It was a Samsung Omnia. And that phone was the, it was so bad.

Like it would freeze up. It looked like Windows 95 on the phone. Yeah. And it would beep when it was silent. And it would like the battery would last like three hours. It was just this horrible phone. And like the touchscreen didn't work. Like, if you think also Apple with the multi-touch screen.

Yeah, that was big. I think it was a while before Andrew could do that. Yeah, like the DS's touchscreen isn't that good. I mean, it's okay, but I don't know. With the edge touchscreen isn't really touchscreen. It's a, you use it with a, you're telling me with the Nintendo DS, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Use it with the pen.

Is that really a touchscreen? It's like a stylus because like it's not. Well, it's still technically. Because it's not, it's not capacitive. It's whatever the other one is where you have to put that pressure. Yeah, but I mean, it's not a touchscreen like an iPhone touchscreen. Yeah, I was the other that's going to say. like Apple made, I think I would argue, the first really good touchscreens because like it would scroll.

Like, because touch screens also like had some weird delay too. Like when you screen it, it was like, right? Yeah. Right, right. Just like that. Yeah. It's like, it's like dial up, you know, like with load chunks at a time, but like an iPhone was seamless. All right.

So for those in the chat right now, if you guys have questions for Andy, we want to start opening up the. the channel. So if you guys have any questions for Andy, who is our PR marketing specialist, affiliate streamer, Magic the Gathering spokesperson, eater of Jersey mics. What else do we talk about?

Padres and Angels fan? No, they're the worst. iPhone stand. If anyone who says that they're a Padres fan, they're like, good for them. Because there's so much sadness around that team. Like, you have to be brave to be a Padres fan. But wins don't matter.

Wins don't. Nope. They don't matter. They don't matter, guys. Wins don't matter. For a pitcher. The Opti wants to know, do you really play bass? I do.

I don't play it as much as I like. When's the last time you played bass? I don't want to admit that. When's the last time, for real? I can't remember. So you don't play bass? I do. So when's the last time you played bass?

Like a six months ago? Like a yeah? Six months ago? like around then what I did I'm not good like I'm never claimed to be good

I don't know bass slapper sounds like you're pretty good I mean I like the bass it's my favorite instrument um I feel like if you're car's still a bass slapper

that kind of like makes people assume that you're like get slap in the base I do I mean it sounds cool on Twitter like Twitter profiles

are just like um I don't know it's like it says your Twitter bio hyped it up. I mean, if you want to

get a bass, dude. I know how to play like every stroke song on bass or the bass lines on that. Um, um, doom, doom,

do do, do, maybe you're doing the door. Yeah. Uh, so he wants to know when are you going to play Destiny 2? I don't know,

man. Shout keeps coming out, man. First of October. I'll play it on Stadia because I pre-ordered the yeah, well,

then you won't be able to play with us because it's not a PC. I know. I, I, I, too. Only because I want to, I just want to, I like testing stuff out. Yeah. I don't like testing stuff out. I like finished products. I mean, it also comes with the Chromecast. So it's like, it's not

the worst. Like it's probably like 70 bucks right there. And it's like $129. You can get a cool controller. And also the controller looks like. Crumcast are $20. What are you talking about? This is a 4K one, isn't it? What? Who? The controller looks like the Discord logo too. It does. That's the other reason I wanted it. I bought a second one. Um, the wasabi one. Because it was like yeah man this looks really cool so different color or yeah it's like green wasa really cool color yeah i'm like yeah i want this i don't want the color comes with but yeah um when i'm going to play destiny too i own the the base game because there's a couple expansions right yeah i don't know i guess i can play it i mean i'm i'm playing border lens right now how you liking it oh it's fine

So hard. I have a pretty beefy computer. What are your specs? I have a Verizon 9, 3,900X of 2080, 32 gigs of RAM, an H500 overwatch case, a Cracken X-52, which I should get an X-62 because I need a better cooler. And I mean, that's pretty much everything ever cares about. And in context of Borderlands? It has trouble running it at a high refresh rates. Really?

RTCX on? There's no RtX in the game. So imagine if it had RtX. It's an AMD game, so AMD don't have that retracing. It's funny. I just got a 2070 super and I'm like rerunning all my games on it

to see what it looks like. And it turned on the rate tracing on Shadow of the Tumrader and I have to know what to look for. Yeah, it's like ray trace shadows and you have to work in PR to know what rate tracing does. Pretty much.

like do you get a little RTX PR stuff no no I mean Andy Andy is the only guy I've ever met who like when a game launches he's the thing he's most excited about is RtX that's like all he talks about yeah because you have

cool I can turn on my RtX yeah because you have a card that's like like when NVIDia launched it though I still game on a 960 man good At the other one's also know how you all played borderlands I haven't touched I don't I don't care about

playing Tetris I mean, like I said, I played it. I spent a lot of time optimizing it and watched a video by hardware inbox about like what the ideal settings are. It's a game you need to play with friends and my friends didn't get it immediately. So like I did like the first like three missions like five times

because I like I picked the character and I realize I don't want to play this character. So I picked the character I wanted to play. And then when my friend played. Y'all get any of them? Andy characters. Then I played again with when my friend bought it. Then I played again when my other friend bought it.

So like I've done like riveting. I know. So I've done like. Why you're to play it three times in a row? What does it play? Because you party up with them. It's like. Because when he doesn't play on an amoe compatible game,

he uses his homies as amoeboes. Yeah. Yikes. homeybos home me boe that's that sounds so weird it sounds so bad

yeah I haven't played it because like it doesn't seem interesting to me like I played Borderlands 1 and 2 and I don't feel like like the ruins any different and I didn't like Borderlands 1 for whatever reason but I liked two and the pre-sequel I hated

I didn't I don't like the humor in those games like I just ignore it the first time I was okay you know they're being quirky they're being funed and the second and third time I'm like I don't I don't want this anymore like can you go right it i mean i don't maybe not the target demographic for that for that's all the humor but the humor's okay i mean it's not off-putting like i just ignore it because they just constantly are talking but then when you're talking to your friends like you can't

like all right shh clap trats talking let's listen like we don't we don't we don't do that because it's just it's a constant stream but it's not the worst game i played with constant talking uh kiddickory Have you ever played that game on 3DS? Nope. It's a good game, but like literally it's nonstop talking. Never did it once think that a game that didn't do that well on the NES deserved a sequel like 20 years later. I'm like, oh man, I can't wait for this again to have another.

People love Kidikris. Yeah, Kidikris is a cool game. I like it. It's different from the NES one. It's like a... I would hope so. I mean, they could have kept the same style, like New Super Mario Bros. Don't even talk about Mario Brothers, dude.

I'm... Yeah. I know you're the Mario bro expert here. Well, I love Mario Brothers. I know you do. I actually love New Super Mario Brothers because it's like classic but also. Why not? Don't take what anything he says about Mario Brothers.

I like the 3D ones better. Listen. Like the 3D ones better? Yeah, Mario 64 was my first one. I love Mario Brothers. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold up. Hold on. The reason why he literally cannot say anything about Mario Brothers is because the first

Mario Brothers game he ever played with Mario Brothers 2. And he liked it. Yeah. It's like the worst one. Exactly. It's not even a Mario game. It's not even a Mario game. It was a launch game for the, uh, it's not a real Mario game.

Super Mario Advance was a, it's not a real Mario game. I know dokey, dokey panic. Yeah, so your favorite Mario game is the one that everyone hates. Yeah, it's dokey, dokey. The worst controls and the worst story. We got to play his toad in Peach. The worst art. Yeah.

Yeah, that game is like, it's garbage. It's a giant mess. Literally garbage. I mean, when you're a fourth grader, you don't really care. Yeah, I didn't play that game when I was in fourth grade I came back and came out in you I think when I was like in fourth grade probably Maybe well I the fourth grade version was the game boy advanced one And that's the first one I played so they pretty it up a bit and

I mean it was fun I love the new Super Mario games yeah I think they're a perfect mix of like new new Mario stuff but like so has that classic feel every Mario brother game is great except for Mario Brothers part two What about Superbarra Sunshine? It's great. They're all great. Really?

Yeah. Because I feel like a lot of people hated Sunshine. Sunshine is, but it's my favorite one, but it's not a bad game. It's kind of made a comeback, I feel, because it's big in the speed running community. Yeah, but that's different with that. Speed runners don't count as gamers. But still, like, I, like, a lot of people are like. That's a tweet, by the way.

Damn. Speed runners are not gamers. They don't. They don't put the game. They just, like, they can speed run literally anything. And they're like hackers in a sense because it's like, oh, you find this. weird glitch that that takes you to that they don't play the game they just they run stuff like it doesn't do with the game itself is just how fast can I do this thing like they could

literally speed run eating chitos or whatever like snacking on cheese is like it isn't doing anything caught me on that I don't care clip it yeah clip it clip it clip that clip that twitch I don't know like I think they are I mean they play the game they know the game they know the game ins and outs. They know every exploit known to man. Like, I respect it. Oh, they're gamers. I didn't say they deserve respect. Oh.

You don't like the awesome games done quick? Not really. I don't really care about speed running. It's gotten worse over the years. I remember the first couple ones are really fun to watch. And then instead of really cracking down, though, it's like Yeah, and then instead of really cracking down on the people who were on there and it just became like super like stale and boring and like, these really

cringy, in my opinion, like clips, the clips like what do you call it skits and stuff that I don't care about like I almost see some dope stuff. My favorite runs on the speed running like AGDQ and SGDQ

and SGDQ are the PC runs. Like when someone like breaks Doom 2016 or like they you know break like some other like a cool PC game I care about but like I don't want to watch someone play some random game from like the 80s that no one cares about. It's like oh the speed running community for this game is so great. It's like five people.

You know there's a big speed running community for SpongeBob the race of Bikini Bottom. Battle for Bikini Bouther. Put some respect on that game. I know, man. They're remastering it because apparently people love it a lot and I'm like, oh, all right, cool. You respect, I respect that. You respect

everything. Yeah, people. I just have a lot of... PR has to respect everything. I have a lot of respect to give. PR stands for please respect. Pretty much. Please. That was a good one. Andy so

but like folks we are also we are we are taking questions in the podcast channel so if you guys do want to ask questions for Andy please do so Andy have a question for you that I ask every guest what is your favorite N60 product first question current or historical

anything your favorite that's I literally ask you what's your favorite product I'm just making sure um PR I guess the S340 because that was my first um

NZXT product. In that your Overwatch case? I thought I was going to say, I don't use NZT products. Yeah, I just have my Mac. That's all I need. No, the S340, because it was the first case

that I built in from... The correct answer was Poppy. You're not a product, though. Yeah, I am. Johnny designed me. Oh, boy. One could actually say that, right? They're like Johnny kind of helped

in the creation of Poppy. Yeah, he made me. Oh, that's true. 3 S-340 or C-40 elite? I didn't have an elite. Oh, you weren't part of the class boys? No. I...

When I was at the microcenter where I bought my case, I didn't know if they had it, to be honest. Because I wasn't as well-versed in the PC building as I am now. All right. And... Sorry. What is your least favorite N60 product? And why is it Dennis?

He's thinking really hard. right now. He's picking up the PR answer. That's what he's doing. He doesn't want to say what he really thinks. He's like, how can I word this in a please respectful way? I'll plead the fifth. Wow. Well, plead the fifth. Because I know what PR and marketing does all day. That's, that's it right thing. Pleading the fifth. You can say. Yeah, go for it. My least favorite NZXT product. Mine is, I will say... The doco? No. Probably, like a long time ago, we made this dumb laptop cooler.

I forgot what the name, it was called like the cryo something or other. It was like the very early, early, early days. I didn't even work here back then. But when I first started working here, one day I was cleaning up the old marketing room we had. And there was just like a brand new like cardboard box, right, like a big box. And I opened it up and I was like, what heck is in here? And I opened it up and just all these like laptop coolers with the NXT logo. And I was like, what the heck? When did we make these?

That's really weird. Yeah. I just threw them all away. So in the chat. Yeah, like the only here is left up. Should have kept them for like memory purposes. I'm sure we kept. I'm sure we can find some.

There's probably somewhere around here somewhere. They're so rampant apparently. I don't know. Well, we had to throw a bunch of stuff away. when we moved. Can you imagine if there was like, you know how like they found like the big old like hole full of the ET Atari games?

You imagine it's like a big hole without those and you can see laptop coolers lying around somewhere. Yeah, we want questions. So what's your least favorite? Yeah, what's your least favorite? Yeah. Why? Because I don't know what it is really.

Oh, really. I know it's like it's steaming. Doco actually. Yes. it's not the best product, but I also feel like it had one major flop, even though I do think it's a good product. And I used it. So, Doco was a streaming device.

Yeah, it was basically stream link before there was a Steam link. And it's like a Chromecast for playing video games. It works. The only downfall of that was that we could only make it 30 FPS. So yeah. Yikes. And obviously, you know, that sucks. So that was the downfall.

I haven't used my Steam link in here. years when I had my own apartment at a steam link because I bought mine for like three bucks or something with like valve was just yeah they're like super cheap I have so I have one that's like in the box that I've used right and then there was a sale on them last I think summer sale for like two dollars right so might as well grab another one because you never know right so I have one sitting in the box brand new but actually I kind of want to buy a new seam controller I might start to have a couple problems with it had it forever but I want a new one I love my seam controller I think is super great There's cool aspects of the steam controller.

I literally think it's one of the best. But I don't like the the lack of, I guess the D-pads. I think in the same way that Ivan loves the Manta is how much I love the steam controller. Because it does so much and it's so, my opinion, really innovative. Well, it depends what games you play too. Yeah, for sure. It's good with mouse games. It's great for a lot of games.

I mean, it's a little annoying, but you can play it. I play a lot of games on it. Oh, yeah. Not just, not just mouse games, whatever, a mouse games. game is you can play the game with the mouse it might not work well but I mean it's I think it's better suited for that because the the this is right so the right um touchpad thingy is a good mouse I can talk I can talk all day about the seek controller but I won't Andy money wants to know what's your favorite person in the server that is lower than apprentice so basically

no no admins or whatever so who's your favorite regular user in the discord I don't want to pick can choose, man. I have to give the PR answer, is I don't want to alienate anyone. Except yourself? Yeah. Everyone's cool. Like, no joke.

Like, better question. Why don't you spend more time in the, in the Discord server? I spend time. Not really. You, I'll be better.

I'll be better. I'll be better. Good boy. I'll be better. Okay. If there's something that you wish NST would make anything in the world does it have to be a gaming thing what would it be what would you like to see shin shake his stick at put a special touch on apple products no um i think it'll be cool if we got into

gpues why what could we do different to gp u that other people aren't already doing um at least standard because i know maybe evgia has something like this um liquid cooling GPU standard Just only swelling liquid cool GPUs. Yeah, but we have the G12. So you can put any cool you want in it. It's already done for you. Like you don't have to, you don't have to disassemble. Because like the Founders Edition, there's a couple cards that come like that.

I think it's like the kingpin, something from EG. There's like an RTX. Yeah, yeah. 2080. There are a couple. But like no manufacturer just goes all in on liquid cooling. GPUs. I think Yeah, they

exist though. I know they exist, but it's not their main focus. I don't think anybody would make them their main focus. I don't think we would do a whole line of them, but that's why I say, like, thinking going niche with the liquid cooling card for people who want them, and that would be our only

RTF card. Because like the G12 bracket looks kind of cool. It does look up. Within, like, when you see it in like renders and such. Yeah, like I think it was that one. Yeah. No, yeah. But something like that, but NXT up it a bit, make it fit in our ethos.

I don't know. The only thing is like, is like Ivan always has and it's like how, you know, our kind of thing is we don't do something unless you can make it better. And like other than making it colder, right? Or like making it more efficient. I don't know what we could do to make it. He's basically saying what he wants is to paint solid G12. Yeah. Yeah.

But yeah. I think that would be Yeah, we can do that I think that would be cool And plus get that Can't wait to write that press release huh? Yeah. Introducing the NZXT GPU

Yeah Warning warning And then the bottom You can download the cam software If you're like, oh no Hey, cam 4.0 It's pretty good I like it. I like it a lot

That's great too, yeah I like it a lot It's technically a beta right like it's not done done yeah they're still it's pretty close yeah actually yesterday I had a had a one of our employees

Harris login to my computer at home because I was working from home yesterday and he was like trying to break my cam wouldn't do it no it no we were having an issue over the weekend I don't know was like oh I was I was I was where my cam kept crashing into like a white screen and like this is really annoying I'm not going to touch it

I was also trying to overclock so I figured maybe something was working was wrong you're doing overclocking through camp. No, I was overclocking my CPU through my bios. And my cam was crashing. The old school way. Yeah, while using the Prime 95 and stuff. And then like yesterday, like, hey, we need someone

who has issues with their cam because they're trying to track them an issue. I'm like, okay, great. I'm like, yeah, I'll do it. It's like, yeah, I'm going to log it to your computer. I'm like, give me a second before you log in my computer. I'm going to do some stuff here real quick. And then, yeah, he was trying to everything can to figure it out. And he's like, no, it's like, I can't figure it out. I'm like, okay.

That's it. Cool story. Yeah. Andy starting riveting yeah they use a stream deck Opti you want to know I have one it's a yeah the mini it was a birthday gift actually for my girlfriend

when I wanted to start streaming follow Andy on mixer on mixer dot com slash Mr. Slagai in the sky yeah I need that that mixer love thank you Ivan you're welcome for promoting that giving you a shout up no I know I appreciate that so much but I don't use it well

because I know a lot of people like can go crazy with the the stream deck and do all these like macros and such. Like I just literally have record or sorry broadcast. Then like a couple scene changes. And then how many viewers I have on Twitch. I don't even look at my viewers. All I have is on my stream deck I have my music controls. So for view requests because I always almost always have view requests on because it's just fun to

to see the dump stuff people put on there. Like there was just like, hour loop of some dumb weep stuff. I'm like, I'll just let her run. Like, no, no,

it was, it was like a 10, 10 minute clip of anime girl sleeping sounds. And I'm like, this is what you want. This is what you want. Like, you know,

like, I don't care. It's at my stream. It's yours. So, and then I also have my Spotify controls on there. Because you can add Spotify now onto your stream deck. That's cool,

but it's, I literally use it for music controls. If you're meeting my mic, when you need to, like, sneeze or something. And then that's it. I have the, what do you call it, the HyperX Quadcast, the mic that Ivan doesn't like. Put that I don't like it.

It just, it sucked. Well, when we first started this podcast, Andy recommended, you know, he's like, oh, I love podcast. You guys should use this mic. And it just so happened that we had a brand new mic that he was talking about in the office. So, yeah, they gave me the mic. And I hear you guys can try it out. And we tried it just didn't sound as good as the mics we have now. No, I mean, yeah, these are professional-ish mics.

No, no, so before we were using a Blue Yeti, and the Blue Yeti, I have at home, so I know it works fine, right? If you did a little back-clicky things correctly. And it's like, oh, it's used a codcast. It's really, really good. Yeah, we couldn't figure out how to get it to sound right. So we sent it down, we plug it in, we do all kinds of stuff on it, and it sounds really, it sounds echoey and tinny.

That's weird because it sounds like, but. Mine sounds. Then the second we plug in the Yeti, night day difference, it was super clear. I don't, maybe you just got a bad mic or something. Maybe you just jinxed it. Maybe. I just went. I, for those at home, I hit a, I just hit it like.

When are you going to write the press release for the podcast? You want me to announce? Well, that'd be good, huh? NGXT launches podcast network. I mean, if you want me to like it. The Poppy podcast network. PPN. This is PPN.

This is PPN with. with Andy Hotline Okay, so What's a weird thing that PR has to do? Like what's a weird Like PR standard

That you don't understand Because I don't think of up there I mean press releases Are worded weird in the beginning It's like NZXT today Like NZXT today I hate reading press releases No offense

It's just like you have to talk like that Yeah, it's really boring It's just like so dry It's like NZT today announces The latest I mean marketing buzzbeats And then you also gotta do like links and explain stuff, you know?

So, like, I know you did a press release for, I forget it was, but I'd do with like some lightning stuff and then you had to explain what Cam was at the bottom of the press release. It just seems, I don't know, like, I feel like you could be like the Steve Jobs of press releases if you're like, hey, we release some stuff, check it out, click these links dummy.

At the end of every press release. But wait, one more thing. One more thing. Oh, no. iPod and an internet device. A rip. You should stream your press release. releases.

That's something that like you actually that'd be great. Like the 1930s or something. It's like like a fireside chat. Actually that'd be great. FDR. And then do it in your voices. If you released a video that was black and white and he has like a suit and tie and he's like,

like, I don't you get a straight relationship. Dateline 19, 2019. I was going to say. And that's like the only way that you can see the press release is if you watch the video and the video has to be hosted on your stream. So even NBC brand is just, you know, for more. updates on nzxie pr hit that subscribe button smash that mother heckin like button that would be fun click the bell like good why not yeah oh yeah what was your favorite press release it's like opti's

thrown out some some really good really good questions is he uh is he um is he a PR friend of yours i'm it's my homie everyone's my homie um i guess for the h series refresh because it was a lot because technically announced seven products. So I had to basically illustrate that in two press releases. I remember Andy, he asked me, he was like, which picture of the H510 looks better? How many photos should I use?

Should I have a side by side and one of the bottom or one, a big one at the top and two of the bottom? I'm like, I don't know, dude, like... It's getting that social eye on it. Like, look fine to me. Like, why ask me PR marketing questions? Like, I literally do nothing like that. You should write press releases for...

memes. NGAT launches hilarious anime meme, weaves angered all across the internet. That would be good for like... That would be good for like an April Fool's or something. Not anymore. You just ruined it. Well, I mean, only our closest friends will know. I think nothing's going to top April Fool's joke this year.

That was my magnum, magnus. The free PC thing. Yeah, that was good. set that joke up for like five years. Seriously. For five years, I'm going to tell people there's no such thing as a free PC. And then exactly at midnight on April Fool's Day, 2019, I'm giving away a free PC. That, I mean, this is your life's work.

Genius. Yeah. I mean, at events, I get that. Like, when I was at E3, and I think you experienced it a little dentist too. People would come up into me and ask for sponsorships. And I'm like, I'm just the PR guy, man. You need to talk to them. Andy's the only guy that could sponsor people.
