all of us have to go. Why not? I'm not. I bet you this. I bet you this. If you go, you will never regret it and you will want to do it again. You would enjoy it.

True. But you have to, you would need shrooms and you need alcohol. And you need to not... And you need to not be afraid of a million spiders that are around there. Yeah, no, I'm good. It's a million of them. Imagine your own shrooms. It's late at night.

All you see is little eye. Big ones. And they get bigger. Yeah, dude, yes. And then they all form into one spider. Then you'd form around the fireplace, start telling stories. You'd wear those glasses and you're like, Spreehameh. Isn't there a movie where they go into the woods and do shrooms and then one person has a bad

trips and thinks someone's hunting them and they kills everyone. Probably would. Really? Yeah. Wait, I've never seen. I'm not to happen to me. Let's go do that.

Yeah. Okay. I'll be the hunter. Yeah. Dude, that would be so much. That'd be like you wouldn't know what the fuck is going on. Yeah. Too much, man.

Too much. We had a cool one v one event yesterday. I didn't think it was going to go that long. Who, who made the, one, why wasn't I invited? Two. you would have not had fun yeah why because you would have gotten

ten-o ten-o ten-o ten-oed and then you would have complained and then you would have sat there I'm cool with that like me like me I see I play formal for sure that one uh that one uh it did go very long but luckily everybody was having fun because if it wasn't if no if you were having fun yeah making it fun shots it didn't make it well it was actually like it got sweaty as hell towards the end

yeah it did did it get sweaty when when Matt went against Dashie? Is that when I started? Because that's when I saw like... It was sweaty. We were hyping it up around that. After first round it was pretty sweaty. I mean, I played Kenny like, we were both going hard. Yeah. For sure. After first round, it was pretty. I was actually so surprised at how...

Nick turned my own stream against me. Thanks for that, by the way. Appreciate it. Yeah, what did I say? Because, so, so me and Kenny were Map 1, right? It was 6-6, but the time ran out. It was Halo. The time ends. Corey Duny yells sudden death, which what does sudden death mean to you? One more killing... One more kill. and then you're done.

I get the kill. And then everyone on the panel's like, no, keep playing, keep playing. And Seth's kind of like standing still, not really playing anymore. Kenny comes and kills him. I saw the replay. I saw the checkout because you were like,

you're done? He was so checked. And then I die once and I'm like, okay, now I'm checked. Now it's tied and I don't know if we're still playing. Then I died again. And I was like, oh, dude. And then I died again.

Impossible to not get checked in a situation like that because you literally just want and you're like, yeah, you put down your controller. And then you have to get back into that mode It's impossible to get back into that mode. And then his dumbass incites my stream and turns them against me.

I pull up my chat. Actually, we're going to give Seth the win And I was like, chat, as Optic always does, we're going to give Seth this. So I pull up my chat. That's not true. Before Map 2 and they were just lump, lump, lump. I was like, dude, this is horseshit.

Why do they do it? I once accidentally did slump when you were doing bad in like a match. And I was in a chat and I'm like, I don't know why. You type that out. when I was having a bad map. Yeah, accidentally. This was years ago.

I think we were still at, like in Illinois. And I remember slump and I was like, fuck. Because I obviously did not, I would think about it. I would never fucking write that. But it came out. And even now I still feel a little bit bad. But I can see now why, like, how nobody has thought about. Did the chat start going with you?

Yeah. They're like, oh, yeah, you're right. He isn't a slump. He isn't a slump. Oh, yeah, once one begins. Yeah, let's start. Just comes down to who, like, played it the most.

Apparently, I didn't know Shotsie grinded Apex so much. He was nasty at that. Yeah, he was disgusting. Also, the Apex 1v1. He's just a freak too. That was horrible to play. Yo, Karma was doing a thing too, though. Yeah, I thought Damon was going to make some waves.

Yeah, Damon beat, Damon beat Ant in the, in the Cod one. I was pretty surprised about that. But was Shotsie rushing him? Yeah. Yeah. And it was like jumping off the top of, three like I think when we realized

how sweaty was getting was yeah you're right when formal and dashy played because you could tell there was like obviously they're like best friends but they don't ever go against each other so they're Brandon wanted to win that they really like that I was being an asshole too I like walked up and I was like uh oh the match

everyone wants to see like I walked up to both of them I think I checked I think I checked out Brandon because I don't think Brandon slept I mean it's just impossible he doesn't play Pex doesn't play Halo, so it's just what do you get? Yeah, and Matt's like one of the best. He's been the really good at all three of those.

Yeah, Matt's like one of the best ARs of all time. I think Matt is one of the best grinders of all time. I've seen them. I mean, they're both grinders, but yeah. He's done nothing but video games for, like, wrong. Yeah. Yeah. He's just grinded video games since like 2009.

Dude, I've seen. It's a grinder. I left, I left the hex quarters one day, and I saw formal playing, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, Wow. I came back the following morning at around like 10 a.m. And he was still there, but now he was riding a horse with wings. And I was like, I was like, yo, you want something to drink? You parched.

I remember trying to like grind World of Warcraft with him. But it's like, yo, let's, let's play World of Warcraft. And then we both start. I'll get in like, we'll get in like a six hour ses. I'm like, all right. I'm going to go home. And then he's just still going. And then I come back the next day.

I'm level 14, he's 47. I'm like, all right, that was fun. That was great. I don't have that base in time. He could make a new character or some shit. I don't have that piece in my head where like I would play another game and have fun playing another video game. This is a, because I don't either. If you did, like if you had no more distractions, then you could just degen and play whatever.

What would you play? Minecraft. Minecraft. 3 Adderall. 20, Minecraft or rank play here or that or that war zone map where it's like a jailhouse and there's like a helipad all the way in the south. It's a jailhouse in the middle.

Yeah, the one that's coming out, this, this. Alcatraz or whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You could play any video game. Call of Duty. Really? Call Duty for S&D. I was thinking about it like.

I don't even know what games are to know life anymore. I would probably know, like if I could, I would know life Halo right now. It's fun. Really? Yeah, Halo infant. It has been like... Halo Infant's fun. Something happened.

I feel like... I mean, maybe I'm just delusional because I've been enjoying it. But like, I mean, Summit's been playing a little bit. It seems like more people are like... Damon's been touching a little bit. It's just a cool arena shooter. I've been getting better at it.

I'm sliding all around the map. It's becoming more fun. Also becoming... Making me more angry, but... I don't know. Halo... It's... I've...

Come to enjoy it after despising it and talking shit about it so much for like two years straight. I'm actually like enjoying it now. Were you just, were you talking shit about it just because you were really, really like so really bad at it? I was bad. Even now, dude, it's just, God, what's happening? I just like I used to win all. I used to be King PIV.

Like if I'm in a, if I'm in a 1v, I'm winning that fight. What was it? Pivot. Just a, what is it? A pivotal fight. Like an important one v1 Who four shot too Like I used to take pride in that

And now it's just God I lose them all the time Just not the same no more But it is fun That same passion It's fun I guess I'm gonna go home today And probably play for like six seven hours

Play what? Halo infinite Did you have a chess wave? Which I did not think I'd ever touch again Did you have a chess wave In like 2020 2019? You played chess a lot?

I did Did you? Yeah I played for like a day or two, but... How was it? Because I'm thinking about... Fun? I mean, I...

I'm thinking about downloading it. Too much. Dude, once you hit a certain point, it's just... Once you hit a certain point and you just have no chance, it's like, dude. Like, what about to go? Yeah. So... I'm about to try it.

You'll... It's definitely fun at the start. I haven't played chess since 1997. I feel like my brain can't learn anymore. In 2001 era. Like, I feel like my brain just, like, can't learn anymore. Like, I'm at a standstill mental. Like if I would try to learn

Like I know how to play chess But as far as like strategies Getting better Memorizing patterns and stuff I just don't think I could do it Dude you got that now It's so much I think yeah I think

I just got I got into like Or uh On stream the other day Like Blake lagged out So George and I were just bullshitting And we're like on this website Where like there's flash games

And minesweeper pops up And I was like dude I have no idea I actually got into Mind Sweeper a little bit I have no idea how to play Mind Sweeper Get into Mind Sweeper Get into mind sweeper I was like Does anybody know how to play?

Yeah once you like find out how to play When I found out how to play Dog There's a way to play that game I've played it every day since then And that was like three weeks ago I've played it every day It's so mind sweeper

Yeah I was playing all the way over here There's a way to play Yeah How do you play So like You know like when you clicked it Like when you were a kid

And you clicked it And all the numbers pop up Yeah So that's how many bombs Are touching that number So there's eight There's eight fucking squares

around that square and whatever number it is that's how many bombs it's touching so if it says one then one out of those eight squares is a bomb so then you have to like you have to calculate all the edges yeah so that's a winning

that's a winning board right there oh shit dude it's so fun like that number two is touching two bombs can you look up a speed run or minesweeper speed run is that like hard to do I used to play this shit in high school

once you get the hang of it's kind of of fun. Yeah, it's fun. But then sometimes doesn't come down to just like 50-50s? And it's so annoying. Yeah. You'll be at the very end. Comes down to a 50-50. Don't 50-50s. They got to fix this. Can they patch this? Like, look at this. Like, look at this guy. Just going. Well, this is sped up.

It's amazing. No, it's not sped up. Yes, it is. No, it's not. It's a timer at the or wait. Oh, shit, you're right. Yeah, this is not spent of time. This guy's a beast. Not like speed runs and shit. What some people do is just insane. And do you right click on what you believe is the bomb? What you believe is not the bomb.

You right click and it makes a little flag. And dude. So if you know it's a bomb, you right click it. Yeah. That's insane. Or he's done. Camille Moronski, shout out of him. Like how do people's brains do that?

Follow him on Twitter. At Camille Morans. You played Halo growing up? He grinded Mind Sweeper. Yeah. But I ain't playing Halo like that. Well, because that's not in 30. Is that what my?

a Halo game play looks like. Just like, oh, what, how is he doing that? Yes, yes. Exactly. Yes. Exactly like that. But even that like the geo game where people like, it'll show a fourth of a beach with a seagull.

Geo guesser. And they're just like Italy. Yeah. Or something very, very specific. That guy's insane. Way more specific than Italy. Like how does that like how? They can tell by like the sand.

They can tell by like the color of wood or like what kind of wood. Sand is different color. Wait, what the fuck are we talking about now? The Gio Gioser guy? Oh, yeah. I see that picture will flash up and they're like... It'll be like... All right, cool.

They'll scroll in and are happening in this road. Like, how does your brain even do that? I can't tell you where Nevada is on a map, so I'm glad you can tell. A pointy bottom. Hmm, like you. No ditty. Thank you. No ditty.

How's ditty doing? Where is he? Are we talking about that? Yeah, again, second week or we have to give the ditty update. I don't know the ditty update. Oh my God. I wasn't here last week. Well, I tweeted out, wake up in the morning,

feeling like P. Diddy in 2014, the cashel lyric, and people dug it up. Like, bro, I said on stream, I was like, you motherfuckers are bored. Yeah, that's so weird. I can't wait if somebody would do that. You know, it was you? No.

I found one from him. Did he? Pete Ditties the goat is what I said. He tweeted P. He's a goat. I was like, why would I even say that? Because like, what is. I know what it was.

Dude, I must have looked it up for like, before I got too bored I looked it up for like 15 other people and I only felt one. So you're the guy that's going looking. Yeah. I was bored and I was just like imbo's P. Diddy. No, nothing. Hacks. Yeah. Mine was easy right. It's like he ruined my favorite song of all time. No, you never tweeted it.

What song? No. No. No. No. No. Or is that Arkell. You know how? As soon as as as Nottorious's lines end, there's a gap. before Busybone comes in with 7 a.m. woke in the morning. And in between there, this fucking asshole says,

we forgive you for you know not what you do to. 7.8.m. And I was like, oh, every single time. I hate that part. You've been a ditty hater since. He knew something was wrong. He knew something was wrong. That's a pretty minuscule reason.

No, but I knew that he was a fucking. That's how I feel about Birdman on Take Care. It's like, please stop talking. Birdman? Birdman had, what does he say? He talks. He just talks. He has an outro.

He has weird. Is it cameras? It's one of those Drake songs. And he just talks the entire outro. And I'm like, dude, it was such a good song. You know why. You know why, right? It's because they were trying to do the intermission,

like the Wu-Tang intermissions. And that like 2011, 2010 to 2012, people were like getting out of the skits and admissions and like going into TikTok. Do you think Birdman? is familiar with birds? Like, do you think he's friendly with birds? How do you get that name?

Yeah, how do you get the name? There's got to be some hood shit. Pigeons. Yo, top 10 Wayne versus tomorrow? I can try. All right, I've got mine. That's a lot of... I've got mine.

It's already written out. You're already done? That's a lot of... How about let the beat build, bitch? That'll probably be one. You stop? Been, me, yeah. That will probably be one.

But he has so many. Too many. Dude. I was trying to figure out. I was trying to figure out all the Wayne verses. Dude. He must. I bet you he's,

I bet you on record, like, songs, he's probably got like 80,000 bars. Or 800,000 bars. Well, I saw, he was at a Drake concert and they had a teleprompter for him.

And people were like, why does he have a teleprompter? And they were like, because his catalog is so, like, deep that he forgets some of his verses. That'd be impossible. And he doesn't, like,

right like he doesn't listen to him the first like three out the first first three albums are like his only albums that he ever like actually wrote down his lyrics and he's just punched in ever since then so like yeah and then he made like a mixtape with everything he's ever wrote down it's called like i don't know 50 000 bars 10 000 bars or something like that christ and he just went through his whole he went through his whole notebook and would and they had a beat playing and he would like do all of his uh written down he would right sorry all of his uh bars that he wrote down he would like wrap them and then rip the page out and throw it away and then ever since he hasn't he said they never took the the pages off the

floor they just they put a floor over the pages and it's still like a poxy yeah yeah genius it's still in the studio i wonder what that's smart huh whoever i mean that's epic if that's true i mean i mean what if they have to move that's pretty cool yeah god i couldn't get that sentence that's pim tight man that's pim tight 285 singles i mean 430 songs 430 songs And dude In some of those songs like

But that's only that's been released Wait wait no no no no Wain Wayne has found time to appear on 430 songs By other artists By other artists Featured on 430 songs

Yeah I just don't know why Matt wouldn't set us up I'm actually surprised it's not more than that There you go thanks Dude the amount of times that he's like It's like 16 plus bars And it's the same rhyme scheme Line after line of the rhyme but the sign and I'm blind.

Just like, dude. Is he top five? Yes, he's one. I agree. Whoa. He's one. You think little Wayne's one? You think little Wayne has better lyrics than Eminem?

Yes. Tye and my sister and daughter up in the closet. His name is orange. It's a borins. That's exactly what I'm saying. Want to die? Yeah, you can die. By my hands, my eyes.

You can die. You can die. You can die. You can die. You just burn you alive. I mean, he. I mean, it's real, it's real dark. Yeah.

I don't hate New Eminem. I don't listen to New Eminem. But the same way that I don't listen to new Aesop Rock Post, Bazooka Tooth. Yeah, but is there something, is there something like fucked in our brains because of that? Because I was watching a video and Red Hot Chili Peppers was, they were doing like a press run on their new album.

And this is like last year. And I was like, they made a new album last year. And I was like, I'm not going to listen to it. I'm going to keep listening to their 2004 stuff. It's like, that's fucked up. Because these are still people. Back in the day, did people do that with like prints? They're still my favorite band.

So I don't know if you guys. There's bangers in there. That's what I'm saying. I never gave it a chance. I need to go watch it or listen to it. It's been a year. I don't know if you guys saw the post from Jude that she like got me tickets to my favorite like childhood band.

I did see that. You saw that? I did no idea who that is. Okay. So there's a band from Spain called Omris He, the G-Men. Okay. And they release songs like as early as 1986. Oh, what type of music?

It's like rock and roll. Oh, okay. But it's like, it's like beachy, I think, in some cases. Anyway, I got back from somewhere and she, I woke up on Saturday and she's like, she's like, hey, and I was like, what's up? She's like, I got you tickets to Omrisset. And I was like, no, the, like, I remember like the child in me like got up and I'm like, no, you fucking did it.

And I was like super high because I'm like 44. I'm like, they're still alive and shit, right? And I'm like, no. And she's like, yeah, and you get to meet him. And I was like, no. And in my head, like, my head could not fucking. you know believe this thing and uh and i was like super into it but once i got there i'm like i'm like i'm the biggest fan period like that that has to be a thing but i'm not they released a bunch

of new songs after that that everybody in the stadium knew and i didn't and i was just like it's all right yeah they played all the bangers that i knew in the in the first half dude and i was like well like don't do it chronologically do it by popularity you're literally taught that's the Chili Peppers concert was. I went last year. And dude, it was like, banger, banger, banger,

and then like four songs I didn't know. And I was like, and everyone else was just singing it. And I'm like, yeah, I should probably check this out when I get home. Yeah.

And then back to the bangers. But dude, I was literally, like it was a very happy moment. It was the best surprise. I don't think I've ever been surprised by a gift, just period.

But that one was a very, very, I was like, man, I felt loved for once in a long time. Oh, man, thank you. I don't know who would have to be for me to get hype like that. Like, Insync? Like, I wouldn't give a shit. Well, like, from back of the day. Yeah, like, as a kid

who you listen to? You listened to Insync? Were you a little kid? Insync? I mean, I was listening. We all did. You didn't listen to Insync? Not like that? Not like that. Really? I love them. Fucking Mary J. Blige. But I don't know who. You listen? It's a kid. You listen to? Mary J. My mom. That's what my mom was. I don't know. To a Ricky Glaciansiansians? I'm pretty sure. Probably you're here a baby. I think.

all like bands like rock and roll bands or like blues bands and stuff I think I've already seen all the ones I I think I completed mine I think I'm yeah I think Chili Peppers was always like that's who I want to watch I want to watch Boston John Mayer Chili Peppers and now I've seen all three of them you have dude I've seen Boston live

yeah that's good it was so sick that's good but it was a long time ago and you seen Johnny Mayor I'd love to see Johnny Mayer life he's unbelievable I love Johnny Mayor it's like probably the best musician of our generation like guitar of our generation. Really?

We're on slow dancing and up burning. He's unbelievable. Yeah, see, I would, I would be like, man. See, I like John Mayer because of his watch collection and how much he knows about watches. It's the same thing with, with, uh, uh, uh, Action Bronson. He's got watch. No, no, no. Like his YouTube.

Yeah, exactly. Like my brother, my brother. Oh, I got an action. Bronson music fan. Yeah, like my brother is the one that put me on to Bam Bam, right? Like, he's the one. And I remember him from when, when, uh, who's, Bam Bam?

Action Bronson. Action Bronson, Matt. He's the guy from Fuck That's Delicious. You don't know who it is? I love every time this guy. Every time I open YouTube at new video of his pop-up stuff.

Oh wait, he's got that show on fuck. Oh yeah, fuck that's delicious. Yeah, yeah. I haven't seen it, but I see it on whatever app it's on occasionally. All right. So my brother put me on to him. I didn't like him at first because he sounds like exactly,

not exactly, but he sounds like a ghost face killer. And them two got into a little into a little spat. And I didn't fuck with him, But then I started watching, like, all his shit. And I was just like, I was like, man. Action Bronson and Ghostface Killer got into it?

Oh, yeah, like, like, is there like styles are similar? No, no, like. Action Bronson was biting his shit. No, not lyrically, not from a lyrical standpoint. He couldn't, right? I'm kidding. No, but now I like, I am a very big fan of his, especially because of fuck that's delicious.

And like, that's so good? Yeah, massive inspiration. I was hilarious. Idiots wouldn't exist if it wasn't, for me at least, for, for, for, for, Fuck, that's delicious. You know what? You should check.

I'm sorry, go ahead. No, go ahead. No, go ahead. No, you go. But you should check out the reluctant traveler. It's on Apple TV. With Eugene Levitt. Yeah.

I feel like we've already talked about that. No, we talked about it on the way to the baseball thing. But I have it in my things to watch. But we were watching the Florence episode last night. Oh, that guy. For no specific reason at all. For no reason. For no reason we watched the Florence episode.

Yeah, for no reason. For no reason. We'll talk about what I'm wearing right now and why he's saying that right now. Where I was going to go, just to wrap a ball on the concert stuff, when I saw Bone Thugs and Harmony live, like, I've seen Wu-Tang, I've seen J-Z, I've seen, you know, tribe, I've seen a bunch of people live. I saw Idea battle in person, you know what I'm saying? So like that. They don't know about that. Anyway.

I don't know anything about that. Idea. Michael, Michael Ideal Larson. Anyway, it doesn't matter. But I got on a podcast immediately after that I told everybody, if you have a chance, you have a chance. chance to go see your favorite artist live you should do it because somebody like you got to do yourself that favor yeah you have to do your your past self that favor that favor yeah and that's exactly how I felt I've watched Wu-Tang live you need to see Michael Jordan live I saw Michael Jordan life in 1996 what are you

talking about uh almost had him no you had us in the first half uh anyway uh and then who else uh yeah so everybody that I wanted to see live I've seen live and the Omres He one one was like the most super throwback ever because I listened to their music. I'm eight years old and these dudes are talking about going to the beach and getting naked with the girls and shit,

you know what I'm saying? Like beautiful, beautiful romantic songs. Yes. Dancing right there. That's freedom right there. Ombres G. Oh, they're rocking, bro. Dude, it was so good, yo.

Probably a hell of a life to just do that your old life. Yeah, I mean, they interviewed them and I was actually kind of it was kind of touching for them to be as open as it where they asked it was like could you retire right now if you wanted to I'm like first of all fuck you interviewer why the fuck would you ask anybody that question mind your fucking business pocket watcher but they're like David Summers the guy in the middle the main the lead vocalist he said he's like no not

really I got a divorce and I got to pay a bunch of like mortgages and shit and I was like and then one of the guys is like he's like I don't want to do anything else but be in on stage like that's his thing and I and I you know that the I felt I felt I felt that. So anyway, if you have the opportunity to go see your guy, your favorite musician or a song that you fuck with, like go see it. Like it. Were you surprised how many people were there? No, but how many people were there? Like, it was at the, uh, at the Toyota Music Factory and it was packed the whole thing. Yeah. Yeah. So like, like 3,500 people for sure. Jeez. Yeah. And and Judah and I, you know, it was our date, uh, lived in and come with. But we were just hanging out

And everybody, bro, there was no noise. It was like, everybody was walking in quietly. And I'm like, I'm like, look at this respectable crowd that's walking in here. And I'm making any fucking fucking, there's no like yelling. There's no blasting music because it's like all 40 plus year olds. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, be there chilling. Where were we in L.A. one time?

And I forget whose concert was. I think it was a country singer. But it was like, it was kind of like the same vibe. It was like super quiet outside. Yeah. Everyone was older. No tension. No tension.

No, that's how the show. That's how the same reason. That's how the. The other favorite concert was low key. I was kind of like, like we got it and it was in Houston. So we went down to Houston and I was like, like, how many people are going to be here? It was at the Astro Stadium. Dog, it was packed.

Yeah. It was sold out. The red hot chili peppers. Yeah. I guess I didn't realize like. They're them. Yeah. I don't.

I mean, yeah, because they got their guitarist back. And that's who I wanted to watch was like the guitarist. Yeah. So they, they were without him for like seven years. And then they got him back. They have beef. No, he just He just stopped

He stopped wanting to play And then they got him back Which I feel bad for their other guitarists Because they were they picked up a new guitarist To replace him And then seven years later They were like by the way Our guy's back so you're out

Yeah This sucks dude That sucks so bad He probably misses out on so much money It kind of reminds me of Navi Yeah Simple now

Because now Simple took a break And then they just won Without Simple Simple yeah Simple play It'll not be forever. Well, wasn't Simple supposed to come back? I'm pretty sure Simple was supposed to come back into the roster.

Do you know about it? You know more than I do, no. No, I don't. I don't know. Maybe Emat Craig knows. With the CS2. Fuck sake. Yeah.

I'm gonna. I didn't watch anything. Well, because Simple, like, step down to take a break. Yeah, but he took a break because he hate CS2 though. He was like, he hated it. He's like, I'm not playing this shit. But I'm pretty sure he wanted to come back. Yeah.

How is the CS viewership? Uh, insane? Yeah. Yeah. So, crushing. Nothing. Just a very. Just a very simple game to watch.

Yeah. It's wild. If you know nothing about it, you still just like, you get what's going on. I think people were like concerned when Val started going that like CS2 viewership will go down. But I think they're both. I think you can watch both. I think that's the thing with that game is like, I don't, I mean, maybe some, I'm sure there's some people that are like, no, I'm not watching Val. That all those colors.

What the hell? There's definitely probably some counterstrike haters when it comes to Valer. I enjoy watching it though just like a slow pace kind of like I don't necessarily join playing it same with S&D and call duty but I enjoy watching it What's up guys this podcast is brought to you by

Missing it. It's going to be dark for four minutes. What does that mean? What's going to happen? The moon blocks the sun perfectly. Yes. Don't look at it. Yes, look at it. The moon blocks the sun. Nick just comes in the next day. He doesn't have his pupil, sorry, just like the...

What happens? Hold up, Seth has a scientific explanation. The Crescent moons. Wait, so what exactly does happen? Because then this happened like a few years ago or something? No. Or how often does this happen? Not often.

The next one, I swear I've heard of one in my lifetime. There's like partial eclipses. This is a total solar eclipse. This is a total eclipse of the heart. Aren't all eclipses? Lunar eclipses? No. Aren't they all the moon?

here. Are they different planets? I'm gonna look up and see this. Dude, that's gonna be so sick. Bro, just... Imagine we're on the plane. Damn. I feel like I see that every night. No, we won't. We won't. Just the moon. What the fuck? No. But is everything gonna be dark?

Yes. It'll be at 2 p.m. here in Dallas. Oh, really? It's gonna be night or almost night by for four minutes. It never happens. Like, you know, imagine, now imagine you want to imagine you're Imagine fucking we can go talk to them. Happiest hours. Can we make it a little longer? That's not acceptable. Yeah.

Happiest hours popping for those four minutes. Everyone's fucking raging. I bet people are going to be like celebrating and shit. Yeah. It's like you don't get. It's going to be 20 years until you see it again. And it'll never happen in Dallas like again. And we're fucking missing it.

The next time it happens. Why are we missing it? I don't know, Hector. Why are we missing it? We are close. Wait, are we the only ones? Yes. Look.

Out of like the world? Yes. It just passes through Dallas, I think. The next one. Like we get one. time segment and then it just goes on no no no it doesn't go anywhere else it's like it's on tour the next one is

in like it's in 2026 in like Iceland in Iceland I don't know that's what butters is flying in to Dallas to see it people from the Arctic are flying in the traffic is going to be fucking nuts

people are flying in to see you from as far as we're missing this shit I'm I'll log it dude dude look to see if there was earlier flights from Italy to come back so that we can see it, there aren't any. But in New York, we're going to see 90% of it. We'll be in New York.

We'll be in New York. Okay. So we'll see it. At least we'll see it. 90% of it. Are you positive? That's what Jude said. So, yeah.

I'm fucking pissed. I've never seen this and I've always wanted to. Dude, me. I saw one, but I like can't remember. Me, Andrew and Denisea, Andrew's, uh, uh, fiancee in Seattle for Halo, we saw, we saw, We went out to go see like we walked up this fucking massive street and we saw some of it. Really? Yeah.

Last time that I saw some like that was when I first sold Optic and we were here and we were here in McKinney and there was an eclipse. And what happens is if you look through a little hole, like you'll see it. You know what I'm saying, right? Like if you look through a tiny little hole, like the shadow will reflect it. Yeah. Well, through the trees, you just saw like thousands of crescent moons. That's what, yeah. And if you looked at the way that the, yeah, yeah, the way that the trees shadows reflected,

there's just a bunch of crescent moons on the floor. I remember that now. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What the fuck. Oh, you were with me. I was with you. And I'm like, look. Yes, and there were just crescent moons everywhere.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a spot. I knew that I knew it had a memory, but you just brought it back. That shit's going to be, that's just going to be fire. So you're not supposed to look at it, though? No, because it's the same brightness of the sun. Get, uh. I mean, I look at the.

I'm fine. Get. I mean, like, you don't stare for four minutes while it's there, but like, take a glance.

They make, like, uh, they make, seeing those little things fly around in your eyes. They make glasses. They make glasses.

They make glasses. Yeah. And then you can just, wait, really? Yeah, they make glasses where you can look at it. If you buy a pack of 100,

you pay $10 for them. I don't trust anything. I don't trust anything. You send them for 10 dollars. You make a thousand bucks, man. You're probably stand around here. Look,

that's how we're going to, look at that. That's how it's gonna see it. That's gonna be so sick. It's gonna be so sick. The one on the right. All the right. Bro, look at that picture.

That's such a bang. Is that like during the day? That's like afternoon. That's like two o'clock. It'd probably be so much better not in the city where there's lights and stuff. Like if you were somewhere. In the countryside.

Yeah. Dude, I bet you were. If we went to and camp, we went to go camping where you could see like, actually see the stars and not any light pollution. Imagine this shit happening in like the 1500s. Probably or like, earlier than that.

Oh, they probably created religion. Like, well, they thought it was over probably. They were like, what the fuck? Dude, this one time my grandpa told me, the sun disappeared. Dude, you know what I mean? They were probably tweaking. Well, think about, think about apocalyptic. Never seen it.

Never seen the movie. Matt, I think it's a cool-ass cover. I remember at Blockbuster always looking at it. Isn't that gory? Yes. Yeah, I won't see it then. No, but it's not gory.

Like, they're just like literally sacrificing people's hearts out of their chest and showing them to the sun. Yeah, that's, okay. Do they eat it after? Is that, do they cannibalize the heart? No, no, no, no. Oh, okay. So it's not that bad, I guess.

But they, they, look at that cover. It's so sick. They hold it up. Yeah, that's the cover. They hold, they, dude, they sacrificed. I think, I mean, Matt, you can look it up. But essentially, like, imagine if you don't have the knowledge that we do now of, of astronomy as it stands, right? And you know that this is only going to last four minutes.

They don't know any information. So for four minutes, they're just sacrificing hearts after heart. After heart. after heart until it comes back and we comes back back they're like yeah oh my god wait really this is this that's what that's about

no it's not about that but it's a part of them you should watch dude if you want your heart to fucking pound watch this shit I don't I don't want that I don't want to see people getting sacrificed to the sun not I always need a good movie I should have recommended

especially if it's about an apocalypse I should have recommended this to you because apocalyptic yeah Apocalypticopo Apocalypse Is it set in like ancient times, right?

Yeah. What's the movie where the sound bite, the like creepy soundbite where it goes, Neer-ne-ner-n-r-r-what movie is that? Arrival. No, no, no, not a rival. Arrival's a fire movie, though. Is it not a rival? No.

World of Worlds. No, the comments are going to go crazy. What is it? Yeah, it's like a creepy movie. I saw like a... Give me some plot, some of it. I don't know. First encounters of the first kind?

I don't think so. Signs. Signs. No, it's not science. Science is... Pretty good. Signs is good. Signs is good.

Signs is so good. I gotta figure out a movie to watch. I gotta watch a movie on the plane. Yeah, lots of them. Dude. Because where are we going? We are going to Turin, Italia, to go watch Kuventus because we have a movie

He said, you're going to Italy? What am I? The ante view? That he was so mad he wasn't going. I don't know, man. I just been streaming every day. And I just, I know, I'm going to go to Italy. I'm going to be drunk the entire time.

Enjoying myself, having a great time. I'm going to come back. I'm going to fall off. I'm not at the gym. I just, it's a cycle. I feel like I just need to say no. If you don't trust yourself, you're good. I don't trust myself.

And I just feel like I've been on a role with streaming. Even if you do fall off. It's... Yeah, I know. Dude, Italy. But you'll fall off for like a week and then you'll be right back on it. Oh, I don't know.

Sometimes that turns into months. Sometimes that turns into weeks than months. You got to reel yourself in. This probably was a joke here. Because I figured all of you, like, like, we got to go do this. I figured Seth would be like, dude, I can't,

Kim is five more days of streaming. Like, I figured like everyone going to be like, fuck, we got to go. Oh, that shit's so fire. Like Roberto Vaggio Also an Italian They sent you on with your name on it You too

Annihilation. Annihilation. I knew somebody would. Annihilation. I knew somebody would close. You would have been in first class. Yeah, everybody would have. Premium economy.

I literally saw who was on the roster and I'd be like that'd be fun. But I was like, I know they're like, I can't be the only one thinking you're not. I was thinking you guys would be like, dude, I'd like got to take five days off streaming. I am, but I'm the only one I can kick a soccer ball. Not enough fun to join us apparently. Fuck, man. Now you have FOMO? I'm going to have FOMO, but.

I'm going to play LIMO. When Page says like Nick doesn't want to go, I said, what? I'm like, then he doesn't have to go, but tell him he's a fucking idiot. Two days out, in two days, we're about to be getting on a plane to go to Italy. Italy, it's not just friends. Is this coming? I got to finish visiting. Liv Jutor coming?

Skinwalkers. Thank you. Skinwalker ranch. Oh, it is a horror film? Or when bangos? What are they called? No, that's like the fucking things you go cross country in. What are they called?

We're going to be grinding just in a different way. We're going to be grinding in Italy, drinking wine. And eating pasta. and eating pasta. Like good. Yeah, but I'll be streaming Halo Infinite. I win.

Debatable. I'll probably get like a couple five gifties. I can't wait to send Nick just a singular picture of wine next to a plate of charcuttery. No, I just love going like out of country or just somewhere different with my friends and just drinking and shit. Yeah. Having no responsibility. Dude, that, dude, you know how.

That's what I live for. Dude, you know how good that feels? And I'm choking. When I wouldn't feel. fishing in Sinolaa. Like I put my phone, like I left my phone. Yeah, you have to. Boys drinking.

That's like a big thing. Jude and Liv went from never leaving the country to being in Japan, Italy, Toronto, London. The reluctant, the reluctant travelers. Yeah. And now that they've gotten out, now they probably are not so reluctant. I'm down. Get Italy tats.

Italia tats. I got a Snoopy the dog tattoo. We have a lot of dogs. Is keeps on trying to give him to get tats. It reminds me of Jude. Ooh, a full sleeve. Just go under anesthesia. I get the fucking.

No. I want to know what kind of tats would get. What? I want to see what tats you would get. get. Why? I just think it'd I can tell you exactly what it would. After I saw Godzilla, I looked at it as, I was like, what would you do if I just got a fucking

Godzilla and King Kong? I could see that. I can see... Godzilla here. There's like fighting each other. No, like I see you getting like a, like a... That actually goes hard. If they're fighting on your chest, Godzilla's doing that and then he shoots his laser beam? Yes.

That movie goes so hard. I love those movies. Love Godzilla. I love King It's like, do I watch the Monarch show? I didn't. And I was pissed because it was a running joke. Mark loved it, by the way, because I was like, they're not showing enough of this fucking lizard. And Mark would always look, yeah, Money Mark.

He'd always be like, man, are they showing that lizard? I'm like, no. But he loved it. Yeah, he loved it. But yeah, it was a full season and they showed him for like maybe five minutes on screen. Because it was like backstory of like Monarch and how the upside down like Middle Earth. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not Middle Earth.

That's Lower Earth. the hollow earth. Yeah, how they got there and how they discovered it and it's like this long story about it but Godzilla

times calm. So do you recommend monarch or no? I didn't like it. I mean it's like super like lore plot heavy. See, that's why I did it like it's like a story about

it's not so much a monster show. It's more so like a group of kids working and discover it's it's like outer banks but fucking Godzilla. I think I'm gonna

I think I'm gonna watch it because but not like outer banks because not like Outer Banks But it's like On my flight Listen I have

I have as you guys know Since the beginning of time I've always done really good With bringing my own in In flight entertainment For the first eight hours I am going to watch a new show That I haven't seen

By my man Guy motherfucking Richie The gentleman The gentleman The gentleman Binge it Yeah I binge it

I binge all two seasons Of the bear On the way to Japan Amazing Amazing amazing Amazing. Haven't you seen the gentleman? No, that's the show.

There's a movie. There's a show? A Netflix. Is this brand new? Yeah. Because that was good. Guy Ritchie is fucking good. I need to watch that then.

Did the show just come out? Yeah, well, let me ask you this. Have you seen Snatch? Right? You've seen Revolver? Yeah, I could probably watch them all again, though. You've seen rock and roller? Yeah.

The gentleman and lockstock and two smoking barrels. Yarr. I never watched this. I remember watching Snatch and I was like, this is a Hector show. I love all of Guy Ritchie's stuff. Which one's that on the left? It's not all yet. The Ministry of, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Operation Fortune was good. The Covenant's good. Rath of Man was, the only, my only gripe with Rath of Man is that it was written for an English accent. So when you see an American reciting or saying the first 10 minutes, like, fuck me. I was just like, this is not a good movie, but it ended up being good. It was just written for English verbiage and slang, and an American saying it just didn't make any sense to me. Was he just saying it in American or was he putting like the accent on it.

No, no, no, no, he was saying it in English. Like he was, he was saying, uh, doesn't have that. It's like me saying. Who took the jam out of your donut? You did, Tommy. You took the jam of them out of me fucking donuts. Why the fuck would you put gorgeous George in an unlicensed fighting match against the Jippo.

No offense. And you can't say that in American. No. Did you guys ever watch the Oppenheimer? Yes. Yeah, I never watched it. Twice. I tried.

Just didn't care. Twice. Just bored. No, it's so good. I really didn't give it a fair shot. Like, I'll turn it on and then I'll just start playing Clash Royale on my phone. Dude. Oh, God.

I didn't really, I didn't give it a fair shot. Yeah, you didn't. I should, though. I tried to watch it in like real. IMAX, but it was sold out. Is it really good? What's it about again? Oh, Clash Royale. You're loving that shit? It's time to lock in the egg. It was kind of fun, but I peed.

You're playing Clash Royale? I'm at 6,000 crowns and I can't win a game now. Because everyone's just a nerd and grinds. My brain stopped learning. Once again. The only thing I play on my iPhone The only thing I play on my iPhone is the pool game, the billiards. Called me the young. Old man. Call me the young, Effron Reyes. Now I'm saying. You know what I'm saying?

Imagine Hacks in there. Yeah, fucking winning. I almost got that one. Anyway, Hitch, why don't we end this podcast by you giving us an update on vision? No pressure. It's, dude, it's weird sitting down to do this again. My Mac, the Mac you bought me at the Scuff House is still in my loft and that's what I'm editing on. You can't do that.

You got to update that. it's cranking out dude it's it's it's it's it's it's it's trying its best to keep up uh so i had to i had to stop mid edit to like clear up some space so i just did that so i'm like 24 25 minutes in and i'm done with the halo portion and the watch party portion so now we're getting into miami and i think it's going to be like a 45 minute episode it's total yeah it's been it's been it's been weird going back we've been missing that that's what the contents uh that we've been putting out is missing the the weekly or biweekly update of the behind the scenes of what i mean that's that's what we owe the fans yeah i've been yeah i i think there's a lot going on at all times here

i actually did an interview with kenny and i was like i mean this is no shot or anything i was just surprised by his answer uh i was like hey what's been like the difference because you're one of the few people that has been on both a hundred thieves and optic which are two content focused orgs and And he was like, oh, things are like a lot smoother here. And I was like, here? He was like, yeah. He was like, they're a lot smoother. Like, I like how, you know, easy and it is and how fun it is to be in content here.

And then we can just go scrimm. And I was like, well, that's dope. Oh, yeah. I was like, hell yeah. It's not an accident. It's by design. Let's move on. Go on.

So what else? Do you think you're going to get, dude, what if you put that out and you get your third videographer of the year? Yeah, of one video. Yeah. It has to be a, it could happen. Yeah. We could make that happen.

I even happen. Stand up. No, it's not. Dude, I tried to laugh. I bought like a voice recorder how I used to. I tried to do everything I used to do and like laved it up and had had people laved up on the voice recorder. And then the lab broke.

So I'm just using the shotgun mic again like I used to. And I was like. So much better. It's just it's going to be. I think it's going to be more nostalgic than anything. But I do think that people that. came on within the last couple years and I've only seen like the processes they're probably going to be like what the f like nah nah don't get nah you think so nah hell no we'll see we'll

see everyone knows vision everybody knows vision it was weird it was hard to start though because I was like dude what am I do like what am I doing it felt like it literally felt like imagine you guys are playing again for one tournament yeah and you get a week to practice that first scrim back you're you would probably be like, what the, what am I doing? Yeah, it's called the artist resentment when you hit that wall. Is it? Yeah. And if you don't, if you don't finish it, you got to watch Van Nu stats.

It explains the brick wall of creativity or the wall, the wall of excuses that you hit where you're like, why the fuck did I start this? Why, like, how the fuck did I do this again to myself? Yeah. And then once you get over that, all the rewards come. You got to watch it. It helped me as a creative, like, go through that shit. I will definitely watch that then.

Definitely do. Because that's how I felt. Cool. Ladies and gentlemen, that's going to do it for this episode. Whoever is in Italy, in Turin, Italy, here at the game, let us know if you guys want to play Super Smash Bros. Grab a, Grover Flake-a-M. Anyway, thank you so much for tuning in.
