Painkiller Already - PKN 466

Episode Date: July 25, 2023

pkn 466 sorry i want to pull the shade over that's okay anyway how are you glad bear trying to get in here you hear the the big nba news how did i not james son yes heart attack i did i saw that i didn't know his son's name was Brawny. I want Derek to start speculating on what array of drugs caused this 18-year-old world-class athlete to have a heart attack. It's happened before. Jay Farrell in our Discord was like, so-and-so was at 35 and in the league

and found out he had some irregular heartbeat and had to quit playing ball or whatever. Who cares? You know, in the league and found out he had some irregular heartbeat and had to quit playing ball or whatever. Who cares in the end? It's hard to give a shit about someone so on another level of privilege and wealth and power. He might be...

You don't feel bad? He's going to want to be a professional basketball player. Will he want that? Poor guy. How bad did you want to be a professional basketball player. Oh, will he? Will he want that? Poor guy. How bad did you want to be? You wanted to play fucking NHL. I knew I was never going to make it.

I knew. He's been working his whole life towards it. It's his entire sense of identity. If I was Patrick Watt's kid, I would expect to play NHL. You were like 13. You were like, dang, I'm not going to be a pro. It was early in that. He's 18. He's five more years. Now he's up? You were like 13. You were like, dang, I'm not going to be a pro. It was early in the night. He's 18.

He's five more years. But he's not getting stolen. You know what? I'm talking out of turn here because maybe he sucks at basketball, but I doubt it. I bet he's really good. He's very good. Yeah, I bet he's good.

But, like, I would never make the NHL because I suck. If I had, like, a heart thing that took me out of my ability to play the NHL like I had the reaction time that would be the worst you want to hear an interesting thing about so LeBron James uses one-year contracts he likes one-year contracts I'm pretty sure this is right and it gives him the power where every year he can decide what team he wants to play for he's not worried about being in the NBA next next year he'll be in the nba until he doesn't want to be in the nba so um this is lebron the dad i'm talking i'm talking about yeah i'm saying what he tweeted that he just give me that one-year contract for saudi arabia i'll go do that

oh yeah yeah yeah well that's paying people like that's consistent with what i was saying he's in the nba for as long as he chooses to be what's so what's out here let me get this out so what's happening is his son will enter we don't know anymore but his son was going to enter the nba draft in like a couple of years and then lebron wants to play with his son you know and be on the same team for a little while. That would make his son a higher draft. If you're telling me I draft this kid and I get LeBron James on my team too, I'll take him top five. Yeah, but LeBron is such a get that – LeBron would be like 41.

Yeah, but who cares? I didn't understand what Taylor said. He'll be like 41 by that time, won't he? I think he's 41. He's 38, right? So he'll be like 41 by that time won't he like 41 is he's 38 right so he'll be 39 or 40 something like that i played a 45 if he wants to and i bet and still be like a guy who can play but play the fucking game right if he's the greatest of all time then he can't be mediocre at 45 that's the true hallmark to me when guys are in their 40s and they're like yeah you wouldn't

want to fuck with me you wouldn't want to fuck with me i'm too tough i'm here for a reason like just so you know i'm still the best in the world it's just i can't do 18 games a year dude that's all it is i can come out there any day i want and burn your ass like i feel like that's when you're the greatest in the world i don't know if tom brady was that but that to me sounds good at least i saw that i hear from ex pros i'm sorry I didn't realize you were still going, but they're like, I could do it right now. I just only have five minutes in me.

Like I heard a Terry Bradshaw. This is a long time ago. Back when he was, you know, he was old, but not as old as he is now. Yeah. And he was like,

got one drive in me. I would just love it. If one more time. They like, anyone here good for a single drive? We're trying to win. The billdozer. You know that episode. Fuck yeah.

But he laces up the cleats and does one more drive and wins the game. Because he feels like, sure, he can't play a game, but he could do a drive. And I hear that a lot. So I read something, and maybe you know more about it than I do. What I took from it was that some guy got a contract to go play in Saudi Arabia in whatever they do there. And it was 20 times the biggest contract ever in the NBA. So it was something like the biggest contract ever was like $48 million a year in the NBA.

And they paid this guy three quarters of a billion dollars to come play in Saudi Arabia. Wow. It's rough in my head. Good move. I read that, too. Something outrageous like that. I wonder. I just want to know if he gets it.

That's my big question. In the NBA, when you get those big contracts, you actually get that money. You'll get paid. You will. And it doesn't tend to be wildly incentive based. In the NFL, you get like a, I'll make it up, a three year $80 million contract

where a lot of the money comes in year three. Trust me, they're cutting you the second year in. It happens all the time. Or you get an $80 million contract or the news says it's an 80 million dollar contract and you realize that 30 million of that is if you make the pro bowl if you're mvp if you're this you're that and it's like dude 80 million dollar contract but you're gonna see 25 million of them yeah 78 millions in bonuses if you right if you get 10 triple triples in a row i don't know those are those are some of my funniest uh favorite mic'd up clips uh when you're in a uh an nfl game and the quarterback

knows that like so and so needs one more reception one more catch one more five more yards whatever to get like a mil like a million dollar bonus tonight if you can catch three balls dude and it's like well i mean i probably wasn't gonna throw to you that much tonight but i am now a million fucking dollars guys like we're all rich but it's a million dollars like we're not that rich right and everybody's like no no we're not tom all right we are i'd be like talking to the cornerback. I'd be like, dude, I will hook you up. 150. Let me catch it. Trip. Like just suddenly bleep it once.

There's a talking about like preventing players from doing that. I don't remember what player it was or who was doing the ribbing, but it was something like it was one of those mic'd up NHL moments and someone was about to hit like their 30th goal, whatever the milestone was. And this other guy prevented it and was doing something after the whistle. Like, oh, that would have been 30, wouldn't it? But that would have been 30.

Probably not going to happen tonight, though. And then just like skating around. And it's just shit talking in hockey is hilarious because they are all either Russian and don't understand or they're Canadian. And they have this like friendly fuck you attitude like a glib punch in the face is like a canadian smack doll like if they say bud to you i'm from the midwest so bud is like nice here people who aren't from the midwest like kyle's reacted to this before i've said like hey what's up buddy and kyle's like whoa you don't say like buddy to people

like that in the midwest you do in canada that's like put up your dukes for hockey guys like whoa bud hey pal i'm skating here you know and like that kind of nonsense i love it i wish they'd do more mic'd up stuff it's the one spot they don't have to worry about them like going too hard because they most of them just sound like goobers when they do it i like the mic'd up. The place where it's bizarrely not mic'd well enough is fighting. It's just the two guys there in the middle, but they have the technology to mic it up well enough for me to hear the smacks and pops,

and they talk shit in there. Some of them will curse and really talk shit while they're fighting. You like that? How'd that feel? You like that? Oh, you're not saying that thing like before are you they should include that you could hear that clearly when khabib beat the fuck out of conor mcgregor it was particular like you know talk now talk now i want you to talk now and because mcgregor did a lot of like hard emotion trash talk on the way

to the fight talking about his dad and his family and his wife's thread count and shit like that and uh so when khabib put him back in his place and manhandled him like a child he was able to talk trash and style on him at the same time i absolutely love your guys vicarious battles with certain fighters. When Jon Jones comes up, Woody cannot resist being like, oh, the biggest cheater of all time. That's interesting. Anyway, next thing.

And Kyle just cannot not respond to that and has to be like, he's the greatest of all time. He's never been stopped. What about his PEDs? None of that matters. He would have won without it. It held him back. He was drunk

and like it's hilarious i love it i don't understand the khabib one though because khabib is the only one there who in that room who doesn't understand that connor just made everybody in that room so much wealthier by talking all that shit he didn't tell any lies that i remember he was trying to tell the truth about that ali guy who had something to do with 9-11 can't be caught or can't be bought i mean to say i made a mistake no he can't he he was they he was at the peak of his earning potential when he retired yeah and uh dana white backed up the fucking brinks truck and said let's fight some more and he's like now i'm done you know that's a good point i i I think I think part of why he didn't appreciate Conor's promotion was he's just there for the W. He doesn't really care about if it makes him eight million or 14 million.

He would have rather just not had to deal with all that. And you keep that extra, you know, few mil. But the trash talk for that was amazing and keep in mind he got to khabib khabib win or lose like i mean he lost a round to connor only person who's ever taken a round from khabib and on top of that khabib was so mad that it wasn't enough to win the fight against connor he holds the choke for too long then he he spits on Conor. Then he attacks Conor's teammate who's outside the ring, and it's a big brouhaha. At least two, maybe three of Khabib's boys jump in the ring

and attack Conor, and he wins the fight, I would say. He hits all of them, at least two of them, and I don't think any of them really hit him cleanly. It was crazy. It was insane. If they had rolled it back again they could have all made more money and they all just made the most money they'd ever made in the octagon all they gotta do is like you know do it again do it again like at some everybody i wonder if

i want to know how wealthy khabib's team was because it's like, okay, Khabib doesn't care about money. I'm sure he's fine. I'm sure right now, anything Khabib wants to buy, he can have. Can you say that about his coach? More goats than he could ever milk. Can you say that about his teammates, his coach,

the other people getting paid? So it's been a few years removed, but the way I remember it, the people on his team were fledgling UFC fighters. A couple of them. Dana says that guy will never fight in the UFC. That guy is currently fighting in the UFC and doing real. I can't remember.

It might be like Islam Makhachev. It might be like one of the fucking like premier fucking Muslim Muslim Russian guys. There's like 30 of them and they all look the same. It's real hard for me to keep them tell the difference. But anyway, with Khabib, is that like unlike the NFL, the NBA? they all look the same it's real hard for me to keep them tell the difference but anyway uh problem with khabib is that like unlike the nfl the nba baseball hockey like it's baked into fighting that you're not just a fighter like you're off your antics to drive up attention that's also part of being a fighter like this the sean strickland stuff he's doing that's as much of being a fighter as like the

fighting part from the eyes of the voter yeah so one i think you're 100 right you're absolutely true uh two khabib was loved and i love khabib it's just it's almost trumpian and that some people respond to it and some people don't you know people are like khabib where are you at where are you at where are you fucking let's fight and he's like i'm in la he sends like a selfie like like he was like like the russians who do hockey interviews it's just fucking like unintentionally or intentionally literal hilarious yeah and uh you know someone like i want to fight he's like send location i'm in and it just right and no no what i want is to stir up social media drama with you so that the company takes a look at it in three to four three to eight months down the road a contract to sign up and our legal teams

get together and khabib saw it as literally he's like and he would respond like an eastern european guy he'd be like haha super cool and then like like a thumbs up like yeah he's like trying to start a fight with them he's like you're my friend in fighting ring yes when he so khabib is like elevating his teammates around them these are friends and teammates and such and he taught them it's not just the fighting you have to learn english you need to learn english you need to be able to do english interviews it's a huge part of succeeding You have to learn English. You need to learn English. You need to be able to do English interviews. It's a huge part of succeeding in this business. So Kyle's right.

And Khabib agrees with him. It just, Khabib's style doesn't land with everybody. I liked it. Kyle didn't. I do wish terrorist collaborating father died. Terrorist collaborators. Yeah.

His father was a terrorist terrorist collaborator. father. Yeah. His father was a terrorist collaborator. Well, I mean, all those guys are boys with that Katty Rob guy or whatever that Woody would consider a terrorist if he was on the Ukraine subreddit. Oh, yeah, those are the bad guys. But then when it's Khabib hanging out with them. You don't know Khabib's part of that team. In my defense, I can sometimes be hypocritical. I've turned against Justin Gaethje for that nonsense as well.

You can't go hang out with Eastern European warlords who commit war crimes and kidnap children. Is he good on the mic? No, he's kind of a homer. He's particularly good in the bring. He's a very Homer Simpson-esque type guy. He's got an eye that looks over here a little bit, but it's endearing.

Not the glass eye guy. No, but... It's Michael Booth's thing. This guy's many times been described as Homer Simpson because he kind of walks forward and just takes it and then pummels people. He's got a big fight coming up against Poirier. Yeah, they're doing the...

What's the title they're going for? It has motherfucker in it. Badass motherfucker? The BMF. Bad motherfucker. Yeah, yeah. the um tatum what's the title they're going for it has motherfucker in it badass motherfucker the bmf bad motherfucker yeah yeah so the the bad motherfucker is a made-up belt that dana white was just like you know what uh new belt whoever between diaz and street jesus help me with his name um masvidal masvidal thank you uh those two are gonna fight and the winner is the bad motherfucker of the ufc and there's champions like what i'm i'm not the bad mother i thought it was me kind of like i beat everybody but no these two guys like more about attitude 11th and

17th fought each other and they're the bad mother well anyway gaethje and poirier are fighting for the second ever bmf title and it's kind of a way to just hype up the pay-per-view but it works on me that's the best thing about fighting is you can just make a big event the bad motherfucker belt is ridiculous

you can just be like I'm a billionaire who wants to win the Titans Cup and it's like okay I wants to win the titans cup and it's like it's like okay i do i want to win the titans cup have they announced who's going to present the belt because last time it was the rock i i haven't heard anything but i'll tell you it'd be really cool if donald trump did it i know he's super tight trump just did an interview with matt sarah and your boy um who's the turtle looking fucker mitch mcconnell no the fast-talking comedian

jimmy um jim norton yeah they have their really mma podcast thing and trump is in like with them the three of them sitting like right next to each other talking only mma nothing else he doesn't bring out uncle paul or anything i know he's been to some games and like um i'm sorry yeah games i'm not a true fan i listened to like five minutes of it and it happened that in that part of it he sounded like he had a lot of general knowledge and maybe um you never know maybe he never mind he's not a regular politician he would just say what he thought yeah it seemed like he had plenty of general knowledge and knew like the history they were talking about khabib at the point at that point and they were talking about trump's like yeah well you know his father passed away and this and that like he knew all

that background so yeah he's got to be a fan to some extent he's like i talked to daniel last night i'm like when are you gonna get that khabib guy back how much you gotta pay him this is like exactly what we're just talking about but like the answer i'm sure is and this is like exactly what we're just talking about but like the answer i'm sure is no i don't i don't need money i have house and bread and yeah and and woman like that's all i really want and i heard gsp talking it was a youtube short and he very nearly fought khabib as a matter of fact i think he went to a khabib fight and was told that he was going to get called out guy khabib and to expect to walk in the ring and say yes or no that night. It didn't happen.

And he's like, in hindsight, I'm glad it didn't happen. He's like, because one of us would have lost and one of us would have had our legacy really tarnished. And now it's kind of not. And I was like, I'm sorry. And unnecessarily, because they're from such, they're separated by so much time and greatness that it's almost like bringing Superman into the Marvel Universe just to beat up, you know, Captain Marvel. It's like we didn't do that.

So true. That was a good that was a good metaphor there. And why? I'm not sure who wins that marvel because she's so goddamn powerful no one else can no one else in not even thanos or well in the i mean you know who's the most how much how nerdy is this gonna get fucker like convince me of something other than this the most powerful member and i'm not entirely sure of all their powers or names but the most powerful member of the avengers is that guy uh doctor who the actor doctor who who controls time there is no more powerful ability than

controlling time if you can rewind i don't and pause nothing is not what he does that's not what he does though that's um he can't do that he can't no are you he can't i don't remember him pausing time but i do remember world breaking if a character can pause time like that there was a character that dr strange absolutely could not be at the end of i think the first strange movie so his technique was to lose and then just play it back and play it then just play it back and play it back and play it back so many times that the guy who beat him like 6 000 times was like fuck it never mind and yeah didn't fight well then that's the most powerful guy in existence well i i think it's one of those like i don't remember the fucking made-up movie that's

different than the made-up comic but i think what the situation was was he was using one of the stones or he was in his own reality or something so that's not like his continuous power it'd be like you could you wouldn't compare that ability that he that he used that one time in that special circumstance to like superman's heat rays that he always fucking has continuously all the time day or night he can't always control time he can just kind of phase around time. He can never control time. There's been times where he can alter reality.

He goes into these dream worlds. He's kind of like Freddy Krueger, where he can take you into these alternate dreamscapes and be sort of the god there. But he's got to get you there. Okay, but he couldn't just, without the time stone, he couldn't rewind and fight no battle over and over no i think there was a time like the the way they they won what are you saying right was he

could envision no i was agreeing with what you said he could sort of envision all the potential realities because he could be omnipresent and all of them or something like that uh but again i don't think he has that stone anymore but i don't really remember or care i've given up on marvel i don't think i'll watch any more of that i see sam jackson got another tv show because why not so there's an interesting thing going on right now uh barbenheimer i'm sure you guys have heard of this people are all about it sure uh double featuring barbie and oppenheimer yeah and oppenheimer is like a three hour movie so this is quite the event 247 okay and uh ringsy um anyway what i think is interesting is that neither barbie nor oppenheimer are franchises barbie might be someday but they're

both like original scripts with sort of new premises i haven't seen either and i barely know my in terms of Oppenheimer, I just don't know my history because I'm uneducated. In terms of Barbie, I don't know the plot because I haven't seen it. But in both cases, I do know that it's not like the 17th movie in the Marvel

series or the second one in the Avatar series. These are big huge hits that are new properties and that's kind of neat i'll never watch barbie not because i'm afraid of it's like feminist agenda or i'm afraid i'll get gay or yeah it's nothing like that i just don't it's a movie about a you know little girls play toy and and and i don't think margot robbie is so attractive that i need to pay to look at her more um and uh but but i'll eventually watch Oppenheimer,

but I'll wait for it to come out because it's a Christopher Nolan movie that's dialogue heavy. And there's no war. This is about the production of the first atomic weapon or really the testing of the first atomic weapon, everything that leads up to that and then the political fallout thereafter.

Lots of dialogue, right? Christopher Nolan movies have terrible mixes. It's going to have this bombastic score we just opened the car door chill and you're not gonna be able to hear what people are and it's gonna be important to hear what people are saying you want to watch it with closed captions i gotta have closed captions you're right you're right terrible score it's too loud he does it on purpose it's what he wants what a fucking idiot what a prick on a side like so kyle's watched the same thing that i've seen and i learned that technology has hurt our ability to capture the audio it used to be actors would intentionally know where their

mic is much like we do right now and talking to the mic so that people can hear us cool well once they started putting lapel mics on they they started whispering and looking in the wrong direction and doing all that other shit knowing the mic could pick them up even if they're barely audible and there's a new standard in like i don't know hearing comprehension i'm lacking the the verbiage to say it, but it used to be, I expect you to be audible. Now, you expect me to fucking hear what you said somehow. And it sucks. Everything he said is true, but with

Christopher Nolan, it is his mix. He wants it that way. Every one of his movies does this. He also films on IMDb. Remember how easy it was to understand Bane in all those scenes? In that... No, I can't tell if you're being serious.

I'm being totally sarcastic because it wasn't enough to talk like this. There also has to be a tank in the background. And it's like this. Run, run, run, run, run, run. Come! All the hero 500 bad guys with no weapons.

Everyone leave your guns in the hideout. Wait, did Michael King say something there? Did Michael King just die? What happened? I missed it. I was trying to read his fucking lip. You've fallen in the darkness. I don't know what you're saying, Taylor.

Exactly. What man of God? I read the reviews for Oppenheimer. It seems like I like I always mispronounce his name. I can't remember if it's Killian or Sillian, but I like that guy. I love him. What's the TV show? I always mispronounce his name. I can't remember if it's Killian or Sillian, but I like that guy. I love him in what's the TV show? The Peaky Blinders.

Love him in that and really everything he's ever done. I like that guy a lot. But they made it sound like this was going to be a real heavy movie with a ton of nudity in it. Not just nudity, but graphic nudity. I thought I was going to see some buttholes and some testicles and some some some cockery i thought they were gonna hang dong and from what i've read everybody was just blowing it out of proportion and you just oh i can take it a step further i've seen a compilation of the nudity in oppenheimer it's just a topless chick apparently riding doggy style but you can't see your cunt oh damn yeah well now we all wanted to see your cunt you know you did you know that i do kyle doesn't like that word but you know what

woody i'm in i like a little cunt in my face i don't like it when he says it when woody says certain words that that maybe he doesn't use a lot yeah when he says the n-word it's like oh that's how that's how a plantation owner would say it or something like oh that sounded rough speaking of the oppenheimer thing do you guys know the story of president truman's like uh his run-in with oppenheimer and how much he hated him it's no it's hilarious so basically like apparently oppenheimer was known as being like a hand-wringing annoying guy and at one point he got invited to the white house and the story is that he was in there with president truman in the oval office and and oppenheimer was like dramatically like walking around like rubbing his hands like there's blood on my hands there's blood on my hands for this

and then he like left and truman reportedly told the secret service agent. He's like, do not ever allow that ghoul, that Cretan in my presence again. Do not allow him to take any credit for the dropping of that bomb. As if he had any decision to make, I dropped the bomb, not him. And he was like, get this fucking loser out of my face.

Well, I, I did. No, no, I dropped the bomb, bitch. You are the front man for the bomb.

Did you do it all? Or did the thousands of people also working? Like, come on, get real. And it's like, yeah, he's right. Truman decided what to do. I wonder what the bomb was like. I'm sorry. I wonder what the invention of the bomb was like.

Because I do know a little bit, at least least from the outside of what modern great technological innovations are like elon musk just managed an organization that advanced the electric car steve jobs just managed an organization maybe set a culture and a tone for the iphone uh whatever at cisco there are engineers making this stuff did Oppenheimer actually like I don't know write something down on graph paper that looks like gibberish to normal people or did he to run an organization that invented

the bomb if it's like most things retroactively they tend to give whole inventions to one person because it's easier to like comprehend for a viewer especially in a narrative structure but I would imagine it's like everything else where it's like the person who in the end gets all the credit is like a front man right there's not that they don't know what they're talking about but like they're not the one back there like soldering there were i have a friend

i'll go after kyle there was you know there's the facility in the southwest where they put the thing together uh and assembled it but where they were were getting the plutonium and the uranium. I know one of the places was in Tennessee. I can't remember where the other one was, but huge amounts of time to get just a couple, just grams of uranium. I can't remember exactly how it works, but they're filtering through enormous amounts of the more common isotope isotope of uranium trying to get uranium 235 away from the 238, I guess. And it's incredibly rare. It's like it's just tiny amounts at a time. Is that detail accurate or were you just kind of filling in random numbers? No, that's that's accurate. Yeah.

OK, that it's what we're always every time the Iranians have a problem. It's what they're always, every time the Iranians have a problem, it's what they're always trying to do. They're trying to enrich uranium. But the facilities and everything to do that and the cost of, I don't remember how much uranium they ended up making, but it was like eight pounds, ten pounds, something like that. It wasn't a lot. Yeah.

We're talking about how inventions are made. So a friend of mine is working on an invention. It cures cancer, specifically cancers that are in tumors. Like it'd be worthless on leukemia, but if your cancer was in a tumor form, I'm not smart enough to even understand it, but I think it bombards it with neutrons or something. Sometimes I use the wrong word and he's like, no, Woody, that's only Star Trek. And where the neutron explodes is where all the energy is released. So if you have a tumor in your lung, then I can do very little damage on, say, your pec and skin. Tons of damage to the tumor and zero to what was behind it. Right. So a little bit, tons of focuses. And it cures this shit. Inoperable brain tumors. Suddenly, tumors suddenly like shit that's my jam i can take care of this without operation yeah so what he actually does

is measure the depth of where the neutrons probably are exploding that's like that's the part that he's extra focused on and uh there's someone else who's in charge of like setting it or whatever but he calibrates where the neutrons are going to blow up make sure that they actually happen on the tumor and it's just such a little piece of the entire process of like the diagnosing and the the machines that deliver the energy and i want to know how it works like like how do they make smart he's got something that's shooting like neutrons or not he's got some that's shooting like particles right like yeah subatomic particles at something else charges don't know what you're talking about it's it it's i would call it energy

yeah i i call them uh fairy depth charges now it's both a wave and a particle. Does it make sense? You're not trusting the science. Why is light a wave and a particle? Because it doesn't work otherwise. Is he like shooting one in his left ear and one in the right ear and making them collide right on the tumor? Because that's what I do.

I forgot how to read. I was like, damn it. You shouldn't have let the new guy try that. read hang on i'll put it back in yeah what that guy actually needs is like a food taster if he's getting that close to curing cancer he's gonna end up like that water running car guy who got poisoned in the restaurant doesn't work on don't have any water melt snow don't have regular water used distilled water and it's like why'd you why'd you say this on the news man like you're gonna die i don't think that man made a car that ran out of water oh i bet he did you think so you wouldn't lie about that and yet you wouldn't get vaccinated like like i just i

just don't know where you draw these lines it's a real squiggly fucking knot i don't know there's no cost in a in a reason and water truck yeah you bring that up all the time the the vaccine thing still you you think i'm sorry it's because it's because scum just brought it they were having a big argument today in the discord about the vaccine today who fucking cares That was someone's point. That was someone's entire point. That's my point to you right now. Who fucking cares? It's on my mind. It's clearly on your mind often.

You think I'm going to die? You think I'm going to get COVID and die? I'm worried about your heart perhaps being damaged when you inevitably have to get vaccinated after you contract the virus or when they put up the zones and you're in your restricted St. Louis zone

and you won't be able to leave it without a vaccine. I trust Dr. Fauci wherever he leads us. What's that guy up to now? I think he may be in some legal trouble. He's living on Little St. James Island just getting cash and checks. I literally think it's some legal trouble.

Yeah, where are all the bitches? it's a goddamn kindergarten around here and they're like oh we got it wrong he's not that kind of elite he's just the the selfish money grubbing guy have you played any more diablo i have played a little bit more uh last night but i think i'm going to take another another evening off tonight it's it's fun but i'm absolutely getting to the point where like it's to rinse and repeat it's it's just the same dungeon and they they added something that's kind of cool like traditionally every dungeon in all these games feel exactly the same it's just a dark dungeon but maybe and i'll say five percent ten percent of the total dungeons are outdoor dungeons and so like there's trees there's like lakes and rivers

and stuff and so that's a change of pace but there's only like one out of 20 that are like that 19 out of 20 are the exact same fucking dungeon with the same little twists and turns like varied slightly and it's just getting boring are you on the same page a bit i like the they added hearts this season i like that i like the season pass stuff that's kind of making things fresh uh i got a heart that's just i don't know just tremendously powerful it made things just way way more fun and just got one that my whole game to autopilot like i i don't do anything anymore if i don't want to because i got a heart which is basically used to be able to put gems in your armor and your weapons and everything and you still can to get

small bonuses now you get these like demon hearts that you can implant in them for really big bonuses sometimes and because my character is entirely about creating corpse tendrils to pull people in and make them vulnerable and then blowing up corpses i got this one heart that says every one second a corpse near you for free explodes into one of your abilities either corpse tendrils or corpse explosion for 30 less damage which is like apparently like the best you can get i think it's actually like 34 reduced damage but i get one of those for free per second and so i don't have to do any i i walk into a crowd i pull the left trigger for the curse and then i hold b until 10 seconds pass and then i pull the left trigger once again to curse anything new like it's it's honestly satisfying just

watching everything get shredded by yeah explosions yeah i just wish there was more to do in that game. Baldur's Gate 3 comes out, I think, next month, August 3rd, maybe? August 7th, something like that. I'm going to play that. That looks really cool. I need to see gameplay. I'm worried it's going to be really slow and boring.

I can do turn-based, but I got to see people play it in parties and see where the fun comes in. I need a game where i work together with teammates and if i don't everyone loses i i want to and i want to i like it to be grindy the problem with diablo is i don't need i don't need teammates i don't know you can do it on your own i can do everything on my own and having teammates kind of makes it less fun because now they're breaking everything and i wanted to break everything so i need need a game where Tarkov's... Can you explain

breaking everything? Killing monsters. You get to this point where you just walk in the room and it's so full of monsters it's standing room only and you're just like Neo. You're just, no. And they all just explode and turn into gold and magic

and orbs and all sorts of nonsense. Yeah, I don't know. I'm a $100 game, but I think I may have gotten my $100 out of it already. I've played a good bit. I haven't no-lifed it the way...

I see people online who have multiple 100-level characters. What the fuck are you doing? Yeah. Once you get up to level 60, and I can't imagine at 80 like the levels get real where it's like millions of xp and it's well the way they grind it the things that we don't like about the game the the grindiness they embrace that so what they'll do they'll find

a dungeon or whatever the the easy the one that's most condensed with enemies, and they'll beat it and then they'll leave the dungeon, click restart, and do the dungeon again without ever actually finishing it. They're just edging all day long, getting as much XP as they can in this one little...

This sounds awful. Why would you play a game that way? Dozens of hours on the same like dungeon just because it's the most efficient way to grind xp or grind whatever they're after yeah that's i wouldn't want to do that i need a game that requires friends and we work together i want the classes to matter more because like in diablo you can have four of any class running around like it doesn't you'll never be like, we really need a barbarian to tank damage,

or we really need a sorcerer for DPS. You can run four of the same of anyone, and you can do fine. I'm hoping Baldur's Gate is more like, oh, well, there's 15 types of classes. There's a subcategory of ranged DPS, like glass cannons, a subcategory of ranged dps like glass cannons a subcategory of more tanky ones and then like even more need to plug and play in order for your team to work correctly like you i hope that it's so that you can't bring four wizards and hope to it's a lot

it's a lot like dungeons and dragons from what i've seen you're going to encounter maybe a locked door and if your class can't pick locks you just got to keep moving you know there's going to encounter maybe a locked door and if your class can't pick locks you just gotta keep moving you know there's gonna be lots of situations like that where it's like oh a river can anyone swim fuck no dude dude I hated that shit about about Fallout like

like the first time I played Fallout 4 where I'd be like it'd be like extra super rare terminal and then like you'd go to log on and it's like, you don't know how to do that. And then you talk to fucking your robot friend and he's like it takes 15 seconds of animation to get behind the keyboard and then he goes

this one's a little too tough for me, chief. And then he gets up and leaves and that's about what it is. That game is great. Yeah, I'll definitely play Baldur's Gate when it comes out if it looks fun. But yeah, I just need someone to play's Gate when it comes out if it looks fun. But yeah, I just need something to play with people.

I want a social game. I see them grinding League of Legends, and I can't do that. They're just so obsessed with League of Legends right now. I don't like the aesthetic of that game. I don't like the way it looks. Do you know how many heroes there are in that game? It's over 100, I think.

Wow, it's grown. I think there's 100 characters plus or something like that. you either of you ever played league of legends no never i know it's still huge like it's one of the most popular competitive pc games that and uh dota is that one of those games where japanese guys get stabbed if they if they're too good have you seen that the internet cafes like starcraft and fucking make it happen in real life? I have heard stories about that where it's like, you know, Koreans stabs, well, other Koreans

here in Korea, over, you know, being killed in Tarkov. And it's like, my God. Korean on Korean violence is bad. Any kind of violence is bad. And that's the official take of our show. All violence is bad. Any kind of violence is bad. And that's the official take of our show. All violence is bad. Unless it's in the ring.

Woody has a whole thing. Woody has a whole thing. It's cool. He has a whole mantra. You shouldn't be able to use any words you want. There are fighting words. And the Supreme Court agrees with me. Violence is

sometimes appropriate. I think they lean more toward the freedom of speech side than the dangle you have next to the... Yeah, I'm definitely more on the freedom of speech side as well. Like, less on the physically... I don't know. There's definitely limits, obviously, to free speech, you know? Like, you don't want people yelling fire and nonsense like that. But at the same time...

It's so stupid. You would not fool me yelling fire in a crowded theater. I'm also in the theater. No, I've always thought that. You think I'm fucking retarded? No. You're just trying to get the whole theater free. The building's on fire.

I'm running into your theater. This guy's trying to get head. That's what's happening, everyone. You work in advertising, and I think I might be able to win you over we'll see all right one guy yells fire 85 of the theater is fooled they all stand up and start like rushing and stampeding to the doors are you sure you sit there arms folded and say i don't see no fire 100 because okay i have the word that if someone yelled fire in a crowded theater it would be such a like this is happening i'd get down and then i think i might get down 7 10 14 more people also yell fire. They didn't see the fire, but they're like, what? Fire, fire, fire.

Now I'm doing my part to help everybody out. I would think someone's trying to get me to run out of here so they can gun me down. So I'm going to get down low. If things ever get bad, I'm going out the emergency exit right over there. But there's no way I'm funneling into a group of people because someone yelled the word. All you do is yell smoke and then Easy Company can come out they know it's safe isn't it Thunder and Flash?

I don't fucking know I don't know what it is I think it is Thunder and Flash I was going to say Thunder and Lightning but I think Kyle's right I saw it recently you know what I'm watching now? The Other Two have you ever heard of this?

it's a comedy it's it's fun and it's light and it's kind of funny the shows are only like 22 minutes long so you just pop them like potato chips you know next next plot line next plot line and i that can be fun in its own way so here's the concept there's this 14 year old boy. He plays a small role in the show, but he's basically Justin Bieber. He made a song that went super viral on YouTube. And the show is about the other two. It's his older brother and his older sister who are just losers. The mom is like, I'm proud of all three of my children.

One's an actor. One's a dancer. Well, the girl dancer hasn't danced in 14 years the actor is auditioning for a role of man who smells fart in a commercial right so he's like not a big actor and uh yeah kyle's got it that's the road and i i saw the commercial it's about it's a food that makes your cat's flatulence not smell as bad so this is he's a terrible actor and he's not doing well but uh that's the after right right that's a whole day i could steal this

role from him anyway it's kind of fun and to watch like the overlooked children try to like ride this wave and it's a it's a comedy and whatever so the other two max which is the hbo i can't believe they stopped being hbo that's the worst they'll go back mark my words they go back to hbo from max i'm with you but you know what's even worse twitter changing to x yeah i was gonna say that i also don't even know that. So we have Twitter and we know what a tweet is. And I think there's some other words too that turn Twitter into verbs and actions. What is it now? What is a tweet on X?

I don't think it's going to say X for long. I think he's doing another one of his things. But then again, he did name his kid a bunch of punctuation. Have you ever seen his kid's name? Zach says it was a rib at Zuckerberg. Yeah, that would make sense.

Also, Microsoft owns that X thing in regards to social media. So I've seen that and I've also seen that Zuckerberg owned it and I don't know what's right. I don't know what the thing you're referring to is. He's just had only three people on everything. We know the names of the men who own the things.

What the fuck? It turns out Elon doesn't own it. So, uh, yeah, I, maybe I fell for the ruse and they're not changing Twitter to X. But I thought Elon was trying to make X a thing since back in his PayPal days.

He wants Twitter to somehow combine with like finance. And it's this ambitious thing. Let's see. Elon Musk recently explained why he decided to rebrand Twitter to X and noted it's more than just a name change. Instead, it represents his plans to create an everything app. Twitter was acquired by X Corp to ensure freedom of speech as an accelerant for X, the everything app. It's supposed to include finance going forward. There are very few people who I have less trust than Elon Musk for, for my finance.

Like, first of all, let's look at Twitter. How's that going? Is Twitter a stable, reliable place where you'd want to put a significant amount of money? Do you want the guy who manages the Twitter platform to manage your bank account?

You fucking don't like it. It's shut down half the time. I wouldn't let him manage my money. He's smarter than I am. I wouldn't let him track my money. I might smarter than I am. I wouldn't let him track my money. He may not value it as much as you do. You've lost it all. Twitter

has become an unreliable product since Musk's takeover. I don't think that he should. I really don't notice that much different in it. Just the other day, he put this rate limit on there where you could only view 600 tweets if you weren't. You couldn't view any tweets if you weren't logged in, but you can only be 600 if you were a regular person.

I saw that. Which people bump into. But then the thing started like DDoSing itself. So you'd load the page and it would instantly hit 600 and you wouldn't be able to see anymore. So that's one example. I remember that. They got rid of that after a day or two, didn't they? I still think you can't see tweets if you're not logged in.

They changed it to a number. Have you ever been able to see tweets not logged in? I guess I've never done that. You used to be able to see. Yeah, I'm looking at it right now. There is no Twitter if you're not logged in. That that doesn't affect me I didn't even know about oh well nobody voted for me X for you yeah so anyway what actually what would the app that does everything do like what else

I know that like one is the next place he wants to go like they he added a bunch of stuff for the blue thing so you can like actually put unlimited video up in in hd i think it is if you have the blue and you get actually other than that i don't really know else what else you get like prioritize your tweets can be longer and you certainly get shared more yeah definitely shared more oh and i think blue check marks have some sort of content creator payment system now they do they just released that where and i don't know the details of it but i saw people showing probably you know obviously the very popular accounts being like look how much i made this month that's what was it all

right so i saw a tiktok guy talking he was a he was a guest on some podcast. I was watching a clip of that. They were like, so you had that one thing. Who was it? Six billion clicks, right? How much do you make for six billion clicks? He's like, $3,700. It's like, no! This was way more money than that.

It's almost the whole goddamn planet. You got everyone to click on something. There's an acrobatic paragliding pilot now you probably think you don't care about that at all right but you've probably also seen a clip or two of someone doing a launch off the side of a mountain or maybe a weird trick like some of this shit goes super viral because it's interesting to see there's a hang gliding one in my head where he launches into the fog. It's particularly, maybe you've seen it or you'd recognize it anyway. So this guy who I don't know,

but like he's a friend of a friend got something like 38 million views on his YouTube short and he made $21. Oh, it's like some of these shorts, they just don't pay very well. Yeah. Or at all. That's absurd. That's like, I these shorts they just don't pay very well yeah or at all that's absurd that's like i'd rather not get paid it's slightly more than zero yeah because you get you make nothing on it you're not doing like depressing math where like you're where you're 89 is like

saying error back at you like error no one could make this little money for view we reach out this can't possibly be right but yeah people I saw were like posting tweets for like they had a few hundred thousand followers and they tweet all the time but it was like seven grand six grand for like a month

that's like that's yeah yeah real money how yeah yeah that's a career no yeah you gotta make an 82 grand a fucking year on Twitter. That sounds like that monetize is much better because I was just thinking, I don't, I pay for YouTube premium. When you're watching YouTube shorts without YouTube premium,

do you get served ads on a 10 second, 20 second video? Like, I don't know the answer to that. I don't know. I don't have YouTube premium. Yeah. They just raised the price of that two bucks and still i don't have youtube premium yeah they just raised the price

of that two bucks and it's still worth it it's like dude if i had to cut down to one thing it might be youtube premium it's top three for sure youtube is the best thing you can just whatever mood you're in just find something that guy stale cracker the louisiana uh cook the chef yeah just things i've been watching his channel so much. That guy's channel rocks. And I still enjoy that about YouTube. What's the nature of it again? Is it cooking? It's like catching, cooking, cleaning,

eating, and he does these huge gumbo boils and jambalaya and it's all crab or turtle stew. And he does stuff that's clearly like regional like poor like food and he was like we doing catfish on the bone people don't know you're gonna eat it on the bone but that's crazy dude you can eat it however you like and it's like

that's literally your thing you think i'm being absurd listen to a bit that's what he sounds like and he does he literally does it dude watch a video after this he will go and you're gonna do we're gonna hit it with that two-step hot and spicy dude that's perfect remember the character from uh water boy with the overall overalls one of them no undershirt the water boy yeah the character from the water boy the water boy no no no no this is his friend farmer friend the character's name is Farmer Friend. He's the guy with the overalls, but he's got no shirt underneath.

And he's like, come on. You're like, I don't know. He's basically Boomhauer. Yeah, yeah, but completely incomprehensible. I think he also had pierced nipples. I remember him pinching his nipples at one point when like a field goal was going in or something he was like yeah like looking off and pinching his nipples doing a whole thing yeah real classic that's a

that's a fine film that is a hilarious film you must have hated the part where i think he plays for alabama right no they made up a team they are the mud dogs oh is it is it Forrest Gump that he plays for Alabama Forrest played for Auburn or Alabama I don't remember which I remember red jerseys and I don't remember either they're both red though so it's it's hard to recall they have terrible jerseys I hate those super, way too simple, just one color. They need a little something. Alabama. I thought it was Bama, too.

I read the second Forrest Gump book, and he plays for New York Giants. Oh, that's cool. I'm glad they didn't make that movie. That would have gotten silly. It was a terrible book. Oh, yeah. I want to know what happens next. There's a second terrible book.

Oh yeah. I want to know what happens next. It dude, it, it, he gets a pig farm and then needs a way to store all the pig poop. So he puts the pig poop in like a coal mine or something, but the methane gases cause a problem and explodes like the whole fucking state or something with the amount

of methane gas in the mines. But the Forrest Gump in the books is foul-mouthed and kind of violent. So he's not at all the character I love from the movie. He's a dangerous retard. And

I hated the second book. The Marine Corps taught me how to kill that's really good delay on kill sometimes the noises at night they frightened me it's like holding a dog's head like that car backfired like that sounds like they really front-loaded that tale with all the good stuff.

I think they modified the book to be better. Yeah. I think whoever converted the book into a movie made him nicer. No. So, they had the boy already who was gonna fly little for us, and that's how he spoke. And they were trying to teach the kid how to do the tom

hanks voice and tom hanks was like wait a minute i'll just let me go talk to this young man it's like it's like where are you from son i'm from alabama what does your daddy do he makes grease really a lot of a lot of uses for grace oh yes sir and he was like i just hung out with that kid for a few hours every day recorded our conversations and just did his accent for four hours like oh it's so cool it's such a great that is a neat story i do like tom hanks being like you know maybe uh we should put the acting load on my back yeah since i'm tom hanks and this is a seven-year-old child who makes grease you know who that's that's not cool towards is like that kid seeing the movie the first time and he knows it's a movie about a retard and he's gonna be like i can't wait to

see the movie i'm a part of and then he just sees that he's like a retarded person that they're making fun of almost you don't think look if he didn't realize that he was starring in a movie about a retarded person who gets made fun of on day one then i'm sure he's not gonna get his hurt feelings hurt and he's gotta be something right yeah his mom fucked the principal enthusiastically to get him mainstreamed into school is a weird little like it's not very far as gumpy it doesn't fit with the rest of the movie story it probably fits with the book and he didn't need to be at school like i remember even as a child seeing that and being like why are you worried about it he's not gonna learn anything he learned to read not well no he could have handled that stuff at home anywhere he could buy all three of us and not

notice the money missing from his checking account so he learned something i could rob him and he wouldn't notice the money well played okay he's retarded cutting my grass by the time the scam was over dude i'd be like tell i'd be like like tom sawyer tricking him i'd like my weed whacker out and i'd be like you can't do this and be like why not i bet i could be like no pulling weeds is for smart people i don't know if you know what it takes yeah you're not a very jackie and i do that to each other all the time you make a pay to rent we call it tom sawyering even though wait it was tom sawyer it wasn't huck finn who did that um yeah we call it tom sawyering and it's just i love it when it works and i love it when it works against me

when i realize like whatever, she's pulling algae out the fish tank rocks or something. And I jump in and she leaves and I'm still going. It's like, son of a bitch. She got me. So for those unfamiliar, Tom,

sorry would be like you're painting the fence. Like, oh man, this is so fun. Well, you can't come play with us. No, I got my hands full here, boys boys this is the best fun i've had

in ages and you trick them into painting the goddamn fence for you what's it called when you do such a shitty job that they they don't want you to do it anymore oh that's every love's raymond that's a tyrone that's everybody that's raymonding yeah i burned uh the kitchen down again when I tried to make dinner. There's a scene where, if I recall correctly, there's an insignificant character who was put in charge of wedding invitations. And Raymond and his father are like, this is what you do. You need to totally fuck this up. Misspell anniversary.

Get her name wrong. Send out the invitation. She'll never ask you to do anything again weaponized incompetence weaponized incompetence i like you too good of a job oh man you're you're back in 20 minutes you did this well i've got some work for you to do i got so many things you can do now oh yeah i didn't know they were so talented i had a manager at cisco who dumped work on me And I was like, dude, I got like, I'm working on this, this, this, and this. And now you're giving me that.

And he's like, if you want something to get done, you give it to a busy person. It's like, fuck. But that's what he said. I'm going home. Some other guy's like, like, packing his, like, getting back from his three-hour lunch. He's like, it's true, bro. And just like, leaving early. Don't give it to Michael or he'll-hour lunch. He's like, it's true, bro. And just, like, leaving early. Like, God damn it.

Give it to Michael or he'll never get done. He's smoking now. Ah! Yeah, but we can't fire him. He's cool. He makes the whole office cooler. He does sound cool. He wears a leather jacket.

He's smoking a pipe. You ever see anybody who unironically smoked a pipe in modern times? Because I haven't in my life. I don't think I couldn't tell you if I've ever seen like a real pipe smoker in public. I'm trying to remember. Everyone says that that movies make it seem like there's a lot of quicksand out there. Let me tell you what else. Movies make it seem like there's midgets everywhere.

I've only ever seen one in the wild. OK, be true. More than that. How many have you seen oh definitely in the dozens and certainly what's a midget dozens okay maybe uh maybe 15 18 because i feel like i've only ever seen one i feel like i could go to some populated place right now like a college campus and find someone under five foot what does it take to be a midget not a short little girl i'm talking about six or something there's an actual cutoff forget the cutoff though let's be real here you know when you see it all right when it when you see it there will be no question

okay that's a little guy okay there are no question little people i agree pornography but tell me you haven't seen a girl who's like four eight and be like you know she's on the spectrum of four eight but you can tell the difference between a tiny little short person proportionally and like a dwarf someone with dwarfism like you can tell their knees can't touch is that thing they get bowlegged a lot it's a common oh i guess that's true yeah it makes you even shorter damn i wonder if your legs are taking the long way around are there fewer dwarves and it that's a genetic trait right like the likelihood or whatever like if you eliminated all the doorsves, would there be more? You wouldn't get rid of all dwarves,

but there'd be fewer dwarves, right? Mining cultures evolved into it. But now since we mine more with bots, more with AI, there's no need. Taller. I was just thinking, I know that Hitler,

like no jokes, exterminated a lot of dwarves. And I was wondering, now today in Germany, are there fewer dwarves than say in a non-purged country i don't know because i've it would i don't know maybe it's different genetic populations everywhere i would imagine there's different propensities in different genetic populations for dwarfism. Do you think they had like a tiny gas chamber for them? No.

It's just a piece of it. They just put them on that little pizza flat tray and slide them in. Did he actually hate dwarves? My understanding of the Holocaust is he was getting rid of everyone who wasn't that able-bodied, pure Aryan, like, future race.

So, gypsies, the mentally disabled, like, lots of people fell under the yoke of that. I feel like dwarves would have gone under the radar, like, and not been noticed as much. Better hiders. Do we need hiding in the future? No, I was saying that they could hide from the Nazis more effectively. Oh, I understand. Yes, that's how they would survive. I wouldn't take a

dwarf in. I find them unsettling to look at. Again, I've only seen the one. You only have the one experience. Was it a Peter Dinklage dwarf or was it a verne troyer dwarf i remember i was in i was in like universal studios orlando florida and i was right next to emeralds here this here this here this fucker came waddling along sausage fingers and all. And I just thought, look,

it's the first midget I've ever seen in real life. I've seen some of the little people in wheelchairs, I think maybe, but, but this one was able-bodied. He could get around. And, and I still,

I made a wish. You made a wish. And it came true. I never saw another one. Let's wrap on that little piece of hate. We got to hang out in about 30 minutes. Yeah. Short on time!

466.
