Starting point is 00:00:40 Thanks so much for everything and we hope you enjoyed this episode of Please Stop Talking. You know, we watch so much fucking Family and we hope you enjoyed this episode of please stop talking you know we watched so much fucking family guy dude yeah like actual episodes or like funny moment but i i'm gonna be honest i at one point i just fell asleep and we watched two seasons oh my god was it with the subway surfer video no no it wasn't it was like play somebody's phone underneath family guy playing subway surfers footage i did i did make that joke so i guess it was kind of true we did it for a millisecond we watched cleveland show because i've never watched cleveland show and then i had the cleveland show theme song in my head non-stop and i would sing it in the new york subway and i and i don't remember who told me this,
Starting point is 00:01:25 but somebody we were traveling with was like, you should stop that. That's racist. And I was like, what the fuck do you mean? What do you mean that's racist? It's the Cleveland show. He's proud to be. I haven't heard the Cleveland show theme,
Starting point is 00:01:40 or if I have, it's been so long. It's just eliminated from my brain. It's literally the only thing I remember. I still think about how David Lynch is a reoccurring character in that show. Oh yeah that's right. He's the bartender. He enjoys it. Oh he is. I'm thinking of David Lynch walking through like a subway or like
Starting point is 00:01:56 an area in a place somewhere and he sees somebody watching Cleveland Show clips with like subway servers underneath and he grabs their phone and he you need to stop watching movies on your fucking phone stop watching cleveland show on your fucking phone if you're gonna watch the cleveland show you should watch it in its cinematic glory in imax i feel like he would not get miffed over family guy on a phone he does get miffed about movies on a phone oh yeah movies i i get that. I get that, though. I learned that Cleveland Brown is voiced by a cracker.
Starting point is 00:02:28 Yeah. Who voices him? It's a dude called Mike Henry. Mike Henry? That's like when, what's his face? He voices Paco and everybody in Heavy Rain. Oh, yeah. He voices Tyler in Fahrenheit.
Starting point is 00:02:44 They changed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He doesn't in Fahrenheit. They changed it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He doesn't? No, they changed it, I think, on one of the newer seasons. Does Mike Henry still do the voice of the maid that goes, no, no, no? Oh, I think so. I don't know. There you go.
Starting point is 00:02:59 So it never ends. Dude, come on. With the hat at first, I thought it was Mike Judge. That's crazy. Mike Henry was on Kicked in the Nuts as the Kicked in the Nuts guy. What is Kicked in the Nuts? It's Kicked in the Nuts. Do you not know about it?
Starting point is 00:03:17 No, I don't fucking know about it. That's crazy. You should watch Kicked in the Nuts. He's the Kicked in the Nuts guy. I thought you were going to end that sentence with he's on kick the site. He's doing gambling streams. He's doing gambling streams as Cleveland Brown. He's getting all the kids.
Starting point is 00:03:33 He's got a Cleveland Brown VTuber fully rendered. Oh my God, dude. That's crazy. That goes hard. For a second, I thought Mike Henry might have been one of the guys who did the dubbing for Most Extreme challenge what is most extreme challenge there was like a dubbing of takeshi's castle oh like the ninja warriors oh yes oh my god because they had like a lawsuit with wipeout that they had to settle on because the wipeout basically copied the takeshi's castle
Starting point is 00:04:02 formula but yeah they had like the dubbed version that was for, I think, Spike initially. It was on Spike, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Wait, they dubbed over it? Yeah, but they made it like a comedy. They gave all the contestants fake backgrounds like, oh, she draws realistic giant pictures of boogeymen in children's closets. What the fuck? That's so weird.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Yeah. And the other fun fact, the lady who voiced all like the woman contestants like everyone in the show is freddie's mom from i carly i can't remember it is mary sheer what the yeah that's her yeah oh she she's in every fucking episode of most extreme challenges it literally just says her credits are female voices yeah she voices like every female contestant more shows like extra most extreme elimination challenge the man show elimination challenge that was it starring jimmy kimmel remember the man show yeah remember he was on that because he was on the man show on spike as well i vaguely remember he created he created that show yeah that was jimmy kimmel's the man show jimmy kimmel and um adam carolla adam carolla yeah there was a segment
Starting point is 00:05:11 where jimmy kimmel runs after women in the streets and says please have sex with me please have sex with me and then they run away from him i'm i'm not even fucking kidding right now that is actually one of the segments of the man show would you have sex with me just a yes or no would you have sex with me have sex with me please fuck me please fuck me it's fucking crazy and then he got replaced by joe rogan what the fuck i i didn't know the man show had so much lore behind it it's more of like a man we really let a lot of this slide back in the day from what i understood i thought it was like a g4 thing but i was no it was a very different g4 show spike it was it on spike it was on spike the man show was a spike show it was on spike yeah i did watch it i did watch it growing no
Starting point is 00:06:00 no no it was on comedy central man show was on comedy Oh, maybe Spike got the syndication rights for it. Yeah. Oh, that's where the thing from Jimmy Kimmel and Blackface comes from. What? Yeah. Yeah. I thought that was like from SNL or just like anything else. I didn't realize that was from the Man Show. I'll pull it up. I'll pull it up. I'll pull it up. I got it.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Oh my god. Oh. I just figured it was from SNL or like some sketch in the show to be fair he apologized for the man show and said that he was unhappy with the fact that he had to act in it even though he's the one that created the show
Starting point is 00:06:40 I know I fucking know in a few years I'm gonna do that for psc i'm gonna be like i'm so sorry for being in that garbage it's that's so strange it's like to be to be like oh you know i i regret doing that compared to going i i was so mad at the time being in it i hated being in it man i was so i was so immature at the time like uh i i really had to grow up or something the reason why he left the show was because he was like erm well i was i'm not proud of being on that show and doing this and it's like you made the show you could have left you
Starting point is 00:07:17 could have not done it you you could have not created the show you fucking idiot that show was just like two dudes and a bunch of women with breasts dancing and that was pretty much the entire thing they fucked that up oh yeah the ending segment uh was always like and and here's women jumping on trampoline so it's like the dancing lobsters but uh just women yeah they actually the people that were in the dancing lobster costumes were the women so they'd record that and then they'd go to the trampoline i'm a fucking idiot i thought you were talking about crab ray but it's women jumping on trampolines no that's a reference to the amanda show where
Starting point is 00:07:56 it'd be like oh the amanda bring out the dancing lobsters oh it's been so long since I've seen the Amanda show. Dude, what a banger. Josh Peck was on that. So was Drake Bell and Dan Schneider. I mean, the whole Nickelodeon gang was on that show. That and all that, I think they kind of went between them. I think they were even younger than before they got their own shows, though. Yeah, because Drake would do Totally Kyle. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:24 And Josh would just show up sometimes. What's Amanda Bynes doing now? Oh. Oh, I just... She's had a tough time. Welcome to the podcast. Most, most actresses of that time. It's like, what are they doing?
Starting point is 00:08:41 Oh. I recently read the Jeanette McCccurdy book and that was very yeah depressing to read yeah oh i it's free on spotify so i i i i checked a look and i i was like this is so depressing i can't do this dan schneider was quite a fucking monstrous man it's so evil reading that is so it does make you happy knowing she gets better by the end though that she's like in a better place it's like damn after all the shit you went through fucking i'm so happy to know you're doing better it's crazy because even like demi lovato and uh selena gomez didn't they also come up and were like oh yeah shit is really bad like this shit this shit is
Starting point is 00:09:22 fucking awful for kids we We gotta stop that. Amanda Bynes alluded to a lot too. It's like if you never know how they have contracts set up for that kind of thing. You'll lose your residuals, what little you have or this and that. You'll be torn apart in court. Dan Schneider basically ruled
Starting point is 00:09:40 Nickelodeon for a few years. He did. I still think he made the logo a foot to just mock the authorities. Oh my God. I never thought of that. Wait, was it actually a foot? I thought it was Dan Schneider's logo was...
Starting point is 00:09:55 Oh, you mean Nickelodeon. The Nickelodeon studio logo? No, Schneider's Bakery was his production thing, but he had such a run of Nickelodeon for a while that they made the Nickelodeon logo a foot. Yeah, I remember the foot Nickelodeon foot. They put the foot on top of the fucking gates to their studio. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:10:14 Whenever you watch a Nickelodeon show, there's an orange foot in the corner. Dan Snyder rubbing his hands together. He's rubbing his feet together. Just, hmm. He's rubbing his feet together. Oh, no. I don't want to think about Dan Schneider rubbing feet together. Yeah, all I looked up was Dan Schneider. Then a Zoey 101 star has alleged Nickelodeon producer Dan Schneider offered kids money for feet pictures. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:10:43 That's not even surprising. No. God, I'm a fucking for feet pictures. Oh my God. That's not even surprising. No. God, fucking crazy, man. What a fucking creep. Speaking of creeps and feet, we just came back from New York. What a segue. To be fair, there's a lot of creeps in New York. I'm going to be honest.
Starting point is 00:10:59 We were talking about this right before we started. Dude, New York is crazy. It is like every stereotype you've ever heard about new york is a hundred percent true yeah every single one of them crackheads fighting non-stop horns honking and shit people screaming in the street i'm walking here yeah i i got out of the train station the first day i got there and it was like the soundscape of new york just like that that is how it sounds in media as you walk out and you're just like yeah horns are like constantly going off every like minute and it's like within a five block
Starting point is 00:11:37 radius of you yeah and it's like hey what are you doing every fucking everywhere it's fucking crazy dude i i uh i have not slept this poorly in so long dude every single fucking i i feel like we might be cursed with airbnbs it was not bad it was like the most it wasn't the clue house actually no it was probably the worst airbnb we had oh not counting the clue house i here's the thing i don't clue house is not an airbnb it's a fucking like it was a set it's a ticketed experience you know like when you go to see like when you go to like uh ripley's believe it or not but it's a house and you sleep in it that's how i see that airbnb the clue house is an experience the airbnb was probably the worst because of many reasons like not having a lot of rooms being in a place i don't know there's a lot of
Starting point is 00:12:32 things that i didn't like about it but it's like more like petty airbnb stuff that's uninteresting but we had a little bye-bye man nook and that made me really happy a bye-bye oh like the little the bye-bye dog closet yeah we like a little bye-bye dog closet yeah we had a little a little a little passageway where we could we could crawl down i'm gonna be honest because uh we for people who've been paying attention on our our socials i i did say on the schedule that it would be in person that we would record and i'm gonna be honest if we did record there uh it would have been in the bye-bye man nook because it was a tiny little nook it was hot as fucking balls it was echoey as hell and it was weird as shit but
Starting point is 00:13:11 we didn't because scheduling conference yeah it was just that whole week was just like a nightmare scheduling wise like it was fun but it was always like oh fuck we gotta schedule stuff with like ever like yeah five different parties at all times in the busiest fucking city i could not believe how stressful new york was new york is so stressful the the craziest thing is to like because we we went by bus because we got train tickets and then the train tickets didn't end up working out and it's a whole fucking thing so we were kind of forced to get bus tickets with a greyhound oh man i remember greyhound being pretty okay when i was a kid this was like
Starting point is 00:13:51 fucking awful the first greyhound bus we took from montreal to new york was fucking horrendous we get to the station and when we get to the station they call up our bus and the the greyhound worker comes out and he's like hey everybody get your get your bus passes on right now god forbid anybody be late we got a lot to do he was like the most like stereotypical new york man ever and then we i just give him my pass i get on the bus i sit down with boo and we immediately realize that this is not gonna work the seats are fucking tiny and boo is giant i was like squished to the window the entire time was fucking awful the bus driver comes in he explains like all right everybody we got nine hours to go oh shit oh i want everybody to take a solid minute pray with me that we make it
Starting point is 00:14:47 safe to new york city actually he actually stopped and started fucking praying and i was like oh my god i only have one personal rule don't get close to me or talk to me while i'm driving it's dangerous out there i'll get in an accident and then we'll all die everybody pray that we make it to new york everybody join in pray he kept being like join in prayer join in pray i was like what the fuck is going on dude are we gonna not make it don't make me tap the sign again now i'm thinking about how cool it would be to have a priest for the like of transportation on every Greyhound bus. Imagine some guy in a hooded cloak walking between the...
Starting point is 00:15:29 in the aisle spreading incense and praying for safe journeys and travels beyond. Brendan, I have bad news. You've stumbled upon Warhammer again. Is it actually? It always comes back to Warhammer. Yeah, that's cult mechanicus because technology is so old they just sit around and they don't understand how a lot of machines work.
Starting point is 00:15:48 They understand how more basic functions, but a lot of stuff is borderline magic. So they like throw incense on engines and stuff. We have to appease the machine spirit to be sure that it works. Oh my God. The guy kept going like pretty much every time we would like because it's a nine hour bus ride we had like sometimes there's stops so people can like stretch their legs get some food whatever and every single time we would get back in he would always be like it's dangerous out there don't even look at me we get to albany there's everybody needs to get out the bus while they
Starting point is 00:16:22 fuel up and this old man who has been like he we've talked to him like once or twice while we were waiting on like to get on the bus at first like when we were in montreal he was like a sweet old man he most of what he was saying is like you have red hair pointing at me and then he would point at boo and said you are tall and we were like yeah that's that's that's right that's right. We just talked to the guy like, oh, man, I'm kind of disappointed that we keep having delays. We're almost like three to four hours late to New York. And he was like, yeah, that is disappointing. And then we just end up being like, oh, what are you doing in New York? Oh, I'm doing this.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Oh, what are you doing? Like, just, you know, small talk. Sure. The small talk ends everybody's just like silently like looking at looking around just like chilling out looking at their phone and he grabs me behind the neck but like you know like he grabs me behind the neck and he says do you know donald? What? This is when things got weird because he got really touchy-feely where he kept grabbing me. Like he grabbed the behind my neck and started like patting it and shit. And I was like, oh my, I was really uncomfortable and I didn't like it.
Starting point is 00:17:38 But he had pastor vibes. Like it was an old man. He gave me pastor vibes. And I was like, i think i'm pretty sure he was a pastor you know i i'm pretty sure he was like a man of god because he he would talk a lot about how jesus is his omi and shit and i was like all right all right all right that right i'm like oh yeah i know i know who i know who donald trump is man and then he goes that man i knew he was trouble the moment i saw him in the apprentice i was like trying so hard not to fucking die laughing when he said that it's like it's all
Starting point is 00:18:14 strange like hey have you have you heard of have you heard of that president before have you heard of president trump it's like well if someone says that i would assume you're asking if i know them personally at that point i i know but no i i mean i i don't know if english was his first language though because he was a french he was like french canadian okay so i don't know but he was still weird and he was like let me tell you something he has no money i know he has no money and i was like oh my god what the fuck are you what are you talking about and he kept being like trump has no money i've seen it on the the apprentice that man is an evil man he has no money you know who has money elon musk now that's a man with money i i you know just like slowly like oh yeah no that that
Starting point is 00:19:07 is so true you're so right he said i love elon musk his soul is rich let me tell you about vladimir putin now that's a man with no money because his money comes from the people he has no money it's the people's money and then he kept going off about how what being rich is yeah you got an actual sermon this guy's giving you his like political figure a tier list dude i didn't even fucking uh we were i was not saying anything boo wasn't saying anything all we did was listen to him while he was groping us and i was like oh my god we were trumpet all i did i can't be i can't be like oh yeah that's so true dude it's fucked up i that's all i could say was like it's messed up isn't it huh maybe if i keep agreeing he'll leave us and then he at one point he just grabs me by the shoulder and pulls me close and
Starting point is 00:20:06 then he points to a little badge on his like coat and he's like you see that and then i i read it and it just says like order i can't remember exactly it was like order of the maze like mason of the order of like some fucking cult and i was like masonic temple was he was he a free mason i i is it free may would he be a probably free mason free masons i don't know but it was like some cult and he was like you know what this means right and i i i wanted him to leave me alone so i just said yeah i know what that was. Was it a big I or a big G? Like what was on him? It was like a pyramid. I don't know. I would cause like you can
Starting point is 00:20:50 join Freemason Lodges fairly easily. Well yeah Freemasons all they do is like they chat, they talk and then they pull out like the big buffet with like tins of food and then walk around eating potato salad and talking about old man things. It's basically a boys club. that's just it's old old he just pointed at his his thing that said
Starting point is 00:21:10 mason and he said i'm a mason you know what that means right and i was like oh yeah i know what that means and then he said and then he grabbed me i feel like with the grabbing, I'm just waiting for the story to end with him suplexing you out of a window. I got grabbed into an SPD. He goes into a 45-minute diatribe, grabs your arm, and starts burning your hand. Grabs Billy and just turns him into powder. Billy got pulled into a conversational
Starting point is 00:21:41 Street Fighter VI thing. Yeah, I think he got bored of us because Boo and I i at one point we we like just on our phones and going like that's so true king elon is rich with soul you can't put me in situations like that anymore because i just tell people to fuck putin he has no i don't know i i was thinking it would go somewhere and be funny either way i he got bored at one point and just left. He was like,
Starting point is 00:22:07 what time is it? When do you think the refueling is going to be done? And I'm like, I don't know. It's like three. And then he, he didn't even say anything. He turned around,
Starting point is 00:22:16 pointed at another woman and said, do you know Donald Trump? Oh my God. It was like, yes, somebody else pulled aggro and It was like, yes. Somebody else pulled aggro and he just like fucking went towards her and bothered her.
Starting point is 00:22:30 He kept talking about like having a barbecue with his sister in New York and I want it so bad for him to invite us. Oh yeah, he could have gone to the barbecue with like 400 people. That would be crazy. It's pay to enter though, $45. Really good Kool-Aid.
Starting point is 00:22:43 I don't have any patience with people with that kind of of energy anymore i think about a week and a half ago i was at the five below with uh shelby uh because she wanted to pick up plants for her little office area and there was an old guy working there we walk up to like their self-checkout machines and we're scanning items and like paying and the dude walks up and he's like having trouble with the credit card machine i'm like no have you heard of um a little guy named jesus and i just said nah man no thanks and we both just left i was like i'm not getting into it like i don't have the time the patience honestly well i i sometimes i feel like i should like when they ask do you know jesus i should be like dead ass. Like who is that? Like,
Starting point is 00:23:25 like I, like what would they do? What would they do if you straight up say like, I have no fucking idea what the Bible is. Like they have to start from the very beginning. Like, are they going to start from the beginning? Let me blow your mind here,
Starting point is 00:23:36 but let me tell you something. In the beginning, there was nothing. No fucking way. Like what, what if you really entertain them? Like really fucking go for it like i don't know and you pretend to be insanely interested and ask like the most asinine like
Starting point is 00:23:52 five-year-old questions how big of a garden how come the animals didn't eat each other this guy was fucking drunk all the time well he said his blood was wine dude i'm so confused i don't get this how did an angel make a baby where did babies come why did that bald guy sick bears on those kids why did the she bears devour 40 and two of the children what is incense does it taste good now tell me i gotta know i get frankincense i get gold but what the fuck is myrrh what is that's a real question actually what is myrrh i'm gonna look it up i've never i've never fucking looked it up i think it was like a um frankincense i used to think was like an incense wait mya oh it's a a yellow fragrant sap like resin that comes out of the cuts in the bark of
Starting point is 00:24:40 a certain of the trees so it's like it's like they gave him maple syrup. Oh, it reduces pain and kills bacteria. They gave baby Jesus baby Jesus got a dab pen for this myrrh. He's fucking Yo, baby Jesus hit that jewel though. Baby Jesus
Starting point is 00:25:00 is hitting the dab pen way too hard. He's talking about his dad, his God. Dude, what a crazy little man. What a crazy little guy i don't want to think about wise men zaza wise men going to the casey's general store to pick up some gas station yeah yeah dude i gotta get a gift for this guy wise man zaza goes fucking crazy hard that's nuts man be like i'm about to hit the wise man zaza oh fuck the burning bush oh fuck i sacrificed my brother is that a thing that happens in the body it's really fucked up because if i was in the bible i would simply sacrifice my monster card to draw in a more powerful monster yes well cain killed
Starting point is 00:25:38 abel like you just sort of murdered him there was the the almost sacrificed isaac you know when um that one time abraham was like told like hey murder your son uh and then it was just a prank and then he goes lol just kidding i was just testing to see if you do it and then isaac became a popular name that was then used in dead space and then the dead space creators said we should make a game called the calypso protocol and call our character jacob because he's the son of isaac in the bible oh is that actual is that real is that actually what they did they didn't say that but i would guess that's why they named him jacob because he is the son of isaac i did too many fucking years of seminary oh that's that's what i always that's what i always think about like man
Starting point is 00:26:21 i know nothing about the fucking bible apart from walking on water and making wine or something I don't know it's like the most interesting stories they don't get into probably not I mean the easiest things like the things that I get from osmosis are walk on you know like yeah the miracles most people the miracles it's the miracles that people talk about I don't know shit about Jesus's life like what did he do in that fucking rock temple where he was hidden or whatever well there is a time skip and it just goes from like he's born to he's 33 years old basically there is it's like a fucking one piece time skip in the middle of the bible what's that jesus trained for 33 years yeah he just fucking trains in the hyperbolic time chamber for some fucking shit
Starting point is 00:27:01 my ass is just thinking of jesus like making a shelf with the one piece music playing in the background like that done done done done done done done done oh yeah didn't didn't jesus also invent like chairs he did not invent i don't know about that what was it i swear somebody told me at one point that he invented chairs and i believe that sounds like stupid shit he did not invent chairs and people and not invent chairs oh i thought i thought that's the reason people liked him so much because he invented chairs and tables and people were like yo what the fuck this is so much better just imagining jesus making a giant t and then like thinking and he's like i hope this doesn't come back to bite me that would actually be a really
Starting point is 00:27:41 interesting like historical corruption like jesus goes from being a carpenter to the first carpenter like we didn't have doors he was the first person to pick up a hammer and realize he could like nail things together he was the first person to shape wood for furniture he invented chairs going to church for the first time after the lego movie came out and your pastor yelling now jesus was the first master builder oh my god well kids complain that the pews are too uncomfortable it's hey this is based off the very first furniture jesus made that's true jesus invented this pew to be fair he invented chairs that must be fucking crazy though like do we really need chairs why can't we just sit
Starting point is 00:28:21 on the floor i mean a lot of cultures do why are we so fucking pretentious with our fucking tables? So pretentious. Honestly, I really hope the ad we have to do for this episode is for a standing desk. Unfortunately, it's for sleep masks.

Starting point is 00:30:06 So like a stable. It's, yeah, it's where you keep like just animals. I'm learning so much about religion. A manger is not really a religious thing. It's just like a big, I mean, back then it's basically like not even a barn. It's almost like a CC's pizza for livestock. It's just filled with hay and then let the animals go apeshit in there and eat everything. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:30:24 When I was a kid on the farm, they told me to stay away from that place. They called it manger danger. Manger danger. You're such a funny boy. I don't know. Since we're on the topic of this, I don't have... When I think of religion, I guess, and my experience
Starting point is 00:30:40 with it, I just remember being in foster care and them trying to rush confirm me Lutheran while I was in foster care and it was the weirdest experience ever what did you know we have a time limit on this kid we got to get him baptized you what you rush you rush what uh confirmation it's like a it's like a ceremony confirmation yeah they were trying to like it's it's you it's a process you have to go through it's an initiation that sounds like a fighting game thing like i i i thought you were like it sounds like a video game thing like oh you got to go through it's an initiation that sounds like a fighting game thing like i i thought you were like it sounds like a video game thing like oh you got to rush confirm into
Starting point is 00:31:10 fucking super rush confirm they just but they just bring me to church and like we do church things but then they put me in a room for an hour and make me read like bible passages it was the most awkward thing ever did you say rush confirm luther? Yeah, Rush Confirm Lutheran. Rush Confirm Lutheran. Lutheran? That actually sounds like a fucking video game thing. That doesn't even sound like Bible. You know what? Bible might be fucking sick. Bible.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Just Bible. Bible must be fucking sick. I can't wait for Jesus to hit the drive impact. Why haven't they made a video game on the Bible yet? You know, when Jesus hit the first nail into that board, he said, bro, drive impact. We got to rush this. What would be a fucked up thing to change?
Starting point is 00:31:51 Did Jesus invent anything? That's a big question. I mean, apart from the religion, I guess he didn't invent that, though. No, that came after him. The division between Judaism and Christianity was basically Jesus showed up and came and said, hey, guess what? I'm here. though no no that came after him the division between like judaism and christianity was basically jesus showed up and came and said hey guess what i'm here there's more and they said
Starting point is 00:32:11 no there's not stop it i guess and islam basically acknowledges that oh yeah jesus came but you know then there was we don't give a prophet muhammad bless his name after okay so they were basically like he came but who gives a fuck well i mean there's also different interpretations on who jesus was some it's like some is he is the god of the old testament others that he is a son of god so it's it goes all over the place okay it really or he was a he was a person but we don't believe in like him being the son of god he was just a holy person that's it i'm learning so much about religion this is fucking sick i like we set this up as the trip uh story episode and now it's just shifted into being like veggie tales that's what always happens though i i'm such a curious little boy and when i hear about religion
Starting point is 00:32:58 or something i don't know i start asking questions i should just go, next time somebody genuinely comes to me and is like, do you know Jesus? I'm going to be like, dead ass. I don't know shit. Tell me your version. Enlighten me, and then I'm going to take notes, which is why I always talk to strangers, just like that one cokehead from Long Island I met. That's a great segue.
Starting point is 00:33:19 So I met a cokehead in Jamaica, New York, and we were were gonna head to This is a suburb for people that don't know The little suburb areas There's a place called Jamaica We were waiting for some people Because we were gonna go see the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie
Starting point is 00:33:35 Boo and I are just waiting outside the subway station In Jamaica At one point, some dude just like Comes up to me and starts like Really aggressive, like so fucking aggressive like how big's your fucking man how big's your man how big's your man how big's your man and he keeps repeating that and i i'm just like completely fucking stun locked because what the fuck i'm just like i was on my phone playing a fucking like pokemon go or some shit and this dude just
Starting point is 00:34:02 shows up and starts antagonizing me. And I'm like, I don't know, man. I don't know who your man is. I don't know who my man is. I'm so confused. I don't know. Like, I kept being like, I don't know. I don't know. And then he's like, hey, you should just pointed at Boo and been like this big. Yeah, I mean, no, that's see, that's the thing. That's what he was asking about. But he kept going. How big's your man? How big's your man? How big's your man? And touch like slapping my fucking like the side of my fucking arm. And I was like, I don't know, man. And then he's then he's like oh dude i'm not trying to fuck with you i'm not trying to fuck with you i'm trying to ask how big this guy is six nine six nine and i'm like yeah six foot nine he's like what the fuck what the fuck and he just like starts going fucking
Starting point is 00:34:38 crazy walking around in circles going no fucking way dude i mean he was coked out like he was just going fucking crazy walking around twitching and like going like i it didn't even register at the time that he was on coke but it was so obvious it like i'm gonna see him at the reunion oh my fucking god six foot nine i don't want to fuck with you and then he would like slap boo on the fucking arm and he's like yeah man so what are you what are you what are you guys doing in uh in jamaica i live here i'm brand new here and then he just starts telling us his life story about it his like so my my dad died a few years ago you know how it is and then i moved in with my cousin vinny and then i went off to like a dead ass cousin vinny and i can't believe you actually experienced
Starting point is 00:35:25 the fucking uh i'm new in town bit from john mulaney yeah that's exactly it actually is because like that's exactly like i'm new in town and it gives you like three completely unrelated stories to like give you an idea of who they are it's literally what happened because he was like my girlfriend also died that was another big that was that really bummed me out and then my other this other person he just kept listing people who died in his life and i was like i really felt for the guy because i was like oh my god if this dude is pouring his art his heart out to us something must be really like he must need to talk about this stuff and then he's like oh let me show you something and then he he like shows us like his leg and it is lacerated like he it is fucked up he it is it's like fucking full of uh uh scabs and like really
Starting point is 00:36:20 fucked up and i just go like oh my god and he he just says you know how good a guy i am i'm a real good guy but sometimes i can be a bit of a bad guy you know what i'm saying i was like oh my god the world quakes when a nice guy goes bad he just he just went i could be your angel or your devil to me in public and then he he says i was at a fruit cart i was eating fruit and then all of a sudden you know how i am i'm a good guy but i hear it goes in trouble i do something about it some like super hot fire bars he actually does dude i watched that i was at a fruit bar eating fruits and then all of a sudden a man with his scooter parks next to the fruit bar. He puts it the laser. Hey, you fucking a bitch. Don't even try to touch my scooter. And then he takes a crowbar and then he starts wiggling around. I say, hey, you stop that. And then I go in. I beat the shit out of him. I steal his scooter. I steal his scooter while the key's still in. I run away with the scooter.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Now I got a scooter. You want a scooter? I'm going to sell you. I'm going to sell you the scooter. I was like, dude, what the fuck? It felt like I got like five stories within like 15 minutes. Because we didn't wait that long. Like Boo and i were waiting there
Starting point is 00:37:45 just to like until our friend jello got there then jello got there and then the dude kept talking to us and it had been like 15 minutes since then and he just went through like five stories and then at one point he finishes his story points at me like oh you got you you says you guys were looking was looking for foods and i was like yeah we're looking for foods and then he was like jamaica fucking sucks everything here fucking blows nothing good except smoothies oh and the food here is good let me show you somewhere and then he just he's just like come on follow me boys and I was like oh dude cokehead side quest when opportunity arises you take the fucking
Starting point is 00:38:30 side quest you fucking go for it I'm pretty sure that at the very least you're gonna get XP from this yeah I'm pretty sure both boo and jello were like really sketched out and not wanting to do it but I just kind of said fuck it I'm going oh the the messages from boo and the discord sounded very concerned
Starting point is 00:38:49 of like we're either gonna get our like kidneys sold or find like a really cool that's because that's because things got pretty sketchy pretty fast like we started following him and then he was like well while we were going off he was like oh yeah oh, yeah, tonight, you know what I'm going to do? I'm going to go to the casino. I'm going to drop $50,000. And I was like, oh, my God, that's crazy. Yeah, I'm going to sell that scooter for $15,000. I'm going to go in there. I'm going to put roulette numbers in.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Bam, bam, bam. And then he was just going off and fucking twitching. And I was like, oh, yeah, baby. Then he just brings us really far in. And he looks completely fucking like he looks to the side he looks to the other side he stops and goes hey yo wait where the fuck am i and then he just like brain catching up yeah we were like next to a fucking alley and it was like it was really sketchy like it was a really sketchy part where there were like not a lot of people it was in an industrial park and he was just fucking coked out and completely lost and that's
Starting point is 00:39:52 when i was like i i had to do this thing where i was like is the bit worth it or is it getting dangerous and weird and i had to call it because he was fucking screaming at him to himself and i was like you know what i don't think i should be with a coke head in a dark alley i'm amazed you got into the alley you got farther than i would have this is this is this is bit chicken yeah how far are we willing to take this bit at one point i was just like oh dude man i don't know i i like pretended to look at my my my watch i was like oh shit we gotta go dude i'm so sorry vinny wait what was it was his name vinny i thought you said it was no his name was his name was giovanni giovanni it was giovanni that's right because he was a very italian name yeah it was his name was
Starting point is 00:40:37 giovanni and he kept repeating to me you know what rhymes with giovanni jamaica that's how you remember me baby and i was like yeah i know i know that dude was fucked up what's really funny about about that uh encounter is over where i was at the time i was in uh manhattan with uh some of our other friends uh namely uh like i i think it was it was julian oh yeah yeah and uh mickey and mickey's from the area he actually lives in new york um and he when he uh apparently he was like while we were kind of like walking around in manhattan he was uh messaging his dad and his dad found out you guys were going to go to Jamaica because I wasn't going to go all the way to Jamaica for a movie. Yeah, it was far
Starting point is 00:41:29 for you because you were in Jersey. And apparently he got a call while we were like walking around. I think we were at the Shake Shack and he gets a call from his dad and apparently his dad is like, do you think it's a really good idea to go to Jamaica this late into the evening? You're going to be there at night like i don't know if that's a wise decision like
Starting point is 00:41:49 that was happening at the exact same time you were on this side quest i get it but it was honestly not that bad jamaica is like it's totally fine like that was the only weird part about going to jamaica like actually nothing else was going on the at the in the end though i told vinnie like dude i'm so sorry we're gonna we're gonna miss our we're gonna miss our movie if we don't head out and he was like oh man no problem i love you guys i we'll see you around if you're ever in jamaica just call me and he didn't give us his number he just said call me you just gotta start out into the world you gotta be like running around where are you your cousin vinny's in danger cousin vinny fell down a well to your body that's that lassie technique
Starting point is 00:42:40 in the end he just like he was just like all right i'll see you guys around call me and then he like leaves but the way he the way he left was so fucking funny i don't know he's like he didn't just like start walking away he like do you guys know that picture of uh what's his face the guy who sings uh imagine john lennon you know like how he has like his legs spread out and then he was yeah yeah the famous john lennon he kind of did that but like really fast to like towards the station and i could i was like holy fuck did a mormon dargonian run he was like actually doing that and i could i was like holy fuck what a creature he was like actually doing that and then i was like okay let's actually head back towards society and go towards the movie theater to get food around there and as i was saying that i just turn around and giovanni i
Starting point is 00:43:40 just hear giovanni go oh fuck And then he just runs towards us. What? Why? And then he's like, I forgot to ask yous. Give me a number. One through 35. I had no idea what he was talking about, and I just said, like, I'm 26. And then Boo said, I'm 26.
Starting point is 00:44:01 And then Jello said his age. And we were like, and then he was was like i didn't ask for your age but that'll work i'm gone he's just for his numbers for the numbers for the roulette yeah the roulette i think that's what he asked but when he asked us i was like what the fuck are you doing he just says okay good i'm i'm leaving now and then he lights up a cigarette and just starts fucking running towards the station and like two minutes after that we're just like figuring out like where are we going next with google whatever i turn around i look at giovanni from afar and he's already after some other like
Starting point is 00:44:37 some woman and i'm like oh my fucking god this guy is unbelievable dude what a fucking creature i i think he actually did steal that scooter maybe he was honoring you at the roulette wheel that night because the reason oh i forgot to mention the reason why he had like a fucked up leg is that while he was running away with the scooter he started the scooter and started go like running out and then just fucking, he just fell on his ass on the scooter. He just got into an accident, picked it back up, and left while he was still fucking bleeding, dude. Jesus. Oh my God, dude. Dude, it felt like I was on cocaine just talking to him. He was so tweaked out. It was nuts.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Bleeding you through all the alleys. Bless up,iovanni i love giovanni i think you know what i don't think he's a bad guy sometimes he can be but right then and there he was an angle you're starting to sound like him when you're talking just there he was an angle giovanni is a memetic device it turning you slowly into giovanni you don't know but you're gonna wake up one day and you're gonna say hey forget about it you interacted with one and now it's spread to you i'm gonna be honest while he was talking i could feel myself becoming italian i was like hey forget about it i should get a chain yeah i was like i should get a gold chain i should buy some hair gel i'm
Starting point is 00:46:00 feeling oh dude he was gelled up dude it was gross it looked like i assumed that it looked like he was sweating like from his hair it was so wet and oily it was weird but he smelled nice he smelled like a nice perfume what a man what a hero may he won big in the roulettes that night this one's for you i mean he said he was he was gonna drop fifteen thousand dollars if if if he says something like i don't think he's he was lying about that either i'm sure he believed he had fifteen thousand dollars to draw no i i think he did because he gave me the vibe of somebody whose dad is was rich because he was saying like you know how his dad passed away? I think he was using the inheritance from his rich dad. That's what I think.
Starting point is 00:46:48 He gave me that vibe. New York was crazy, though. We turned the bar into an Evo watch party. That was cool. I did not expect that. That's when I met up with you guys. We had the...
Starting point is 00:47:04 They had a big projector screen like yeah basically above the entrance so you walk in and you turn around and i think did they say what they're usually playing because like oh they're usually they're usually playing like twitch streams and stuff like that and we were like interesting we got in we were like oh could you put on evo it's like the final day of the tournament and they were like oh uh sure whatever like what like we'll put on whatever for you guys usually it's not busy on sunday buddy it like we basically got it popped out in there we like everybody was popping off to evo it was nuts and uh i was really drunk and i i thought I was going to pay a lot of money for my bar tab. I did not.
Starting point is 00:47:48 I did not realize how many fucking shots and beers people would buy me. I was like college drunk. It was nuts. That hasn't happened to me in so long. And by so long, I mean MAGFest. Yeah, we were having a lot of fun with that uh because i got there like right before the the top six for uh street fighter six started and once it got going like the first game uh i don't think it was the taquito one it was the one before the taquito
Starting point is 00:48:21 uh uh ken versus jp oh like that was sick people were like kind of like oh shit is this like street fighter like it's clearly people that are not like in the know of what's happening but there's some people going like oh shit i remember street fighter and then with each match as we were like getting really fucking hype with how we're into it finals were going they were kind of building off the energy. And by the time I was leaving, like fucking everyone was going off. Because I left like I think right at the end of like,
Starting point is 00:48:53 I think like semis going into the quarterfinals, I think. And yeah, like the whole main room. I met two other Billies and we kept buying each other shots. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I think that's how things got out of hand it was cool as fuck though that place is called wonderville in brooklyn it's fucking awesome they have like it's an arcade bar but it's an indie arcade bar so all the are all the arcade machines are custom indie games it's such a that's neat it's so cool you could play like the biggest game there that
Starting point is 00:49:25 everybody knows is killer queen b and they were doing a tournament there as well i think dude that that place was fucking awesome yeah shout outs to wonderful i don't remember who our bartender was but she was fucking sweet as hell and her boyfriend jermaine was like this the fucking coolest guy that was awesome oh was he the guy that was like standing at the side of the bar when we were there yeah yeah and we uh we we were like hanging out and watching street fighter for a while he was such a cool dude i i got his number and i was like oh dude we'll go back to wonderville and then we didn't because new york is so fucking busy that was sick though yeah it was like really fun do they have like a machine that lets you play Braid or Limbo?
Starting point is 00:50:06 Imagine, dude. Fucking, they had a machine for The Witness, bro. All right. They got the Ouya set up finally. Who wants to play some Towerfall? Anybody? Oh, fuck. You're the first person I know who knows a Ouya game by title.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Well, you don't know The Amazing Frog? No. Oh, you're missing out. Is it Ouya or Ouya? I never know. It's Ouya. It's Ouya. It's Ouya. It is Ouya. amazing frog no oh you're missing out or we uh i never know it's oh yeah it's oh yeah it's oh yeah yeah because they were like erm i'm tired of renting games because and paying money but i can rent games on my thing and then the ad would go oh yeah i i love my friend getting really hyped about oh yeah back when it was coming out and they're like dude it's like it's like you're
Starting point is 00:50:42 gonna be able to play android phones on your tv and then he got it and he's like dude this sucks you're just able to play android phones on your tv yeah exactly that's what you want it's doing exactly what it was advertised the uya lady is one of the most fucking insane people ever i don't know she gives me the weirdest vibes breaking bad one of the white uya controller we should think of this. This is epic. One of the best things to ever happen to gaming was when she was at an interview and they were interviewing her about like, okay, well, you talk a lot about the hardware, but what about like, do you have killer abs?
Starting point is 00:51:15 Do you have games that you like? Looked off screen and was like, Bomberman, was that one of the games? Yeah, Bomberman. I love Bomberman. I honestly can't believe how big the OUYA was. I don't either because it's like Brendan said. You know, it's Android things on your TV.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Here it is. Oh, it's Android things on my TV. People like the idea because that was like, what, 2013? And everybody really wanted to believe in it. But once it came out and everybody saw it was like oh. I never saw a single game for it that I remember. Even the selling point is like oh it'll be like a hundred bucks and then I'll do all this.
Starting point is 00:51:51 Was it a hundred bucks? Was it supposed to be a hundred bucks? It was supposed to be affordable. I don't remember if it was a hundred bucks but it was definitely more affordable than others. I remember it felt insanely cheap. When we're hearing like oh it's cheap and it's gonna play phone games on your TV. Oh yeah it was a hundred dollars. I can get a new one right now holy fuck i i i i am still thinking about how that friend went from like uya apologist for a little bit to like elon musk
Starting point is 00:52:14 apologist to like living with me and then moving out because uh of yeah i'm waking so many memories um oh no so so this friend uh i'm not gonna i'm not gonna just like say his name but like yeah so he he was super like into musk uh and we were like oh hey let's get an apartment together so it was me shelby uh james and this friend of ours it was a friend of mine and james is from high school and call him kyle yeah we'll call him kyle kyle uh was like living with us and Kyle was the kind of friend who like me and James would talk to him for
Starting point is 00:52:50 a while. We'd be like besties and then he'd get a girlfriend and then disappear, right? Oh, that guy. I know that guy. Okay. Okay. You told me about this guy. Okay. So he lived with us for about six months in our apartment and he did a couple of funny
Starting point is 00:53:05 things one he would vape constantly but it wasn't like a vape that you'd buy at a store it was a vape that his brother had built and made like welded together so sometimes it would just catch on fire and start smoking so he'd take it and he'd put it in the sink and douse it in water take the batteries out and then let it dry and start using it again. One time I told him, dude, you should vape Mio, like the little water enhancement. No, no, no, no, no, no. He vaped Mio for like three days straight before he was like,
Starting point is 00:53:34 yeah, this is hurting my lungs really bad. I need to stop. What the fuck? Oh my god, no fucking shit, dumbass. What? Why is he vaping flavored water? Well, because I told him to and kind of let me be honest. It's kind. Well, because I told him to and kind of it. Let me be honest. It's kind of my fault because I told him it'd be funny. And then he just kept doing it.
Starting point is 00:53:50 And I kept going, yeah, yeah, vape it, vape it, me-o, yeah. See, that adds a lot more to the story. So you're the bad influence. It is kind of my fault. So eventually he had to move out because his girlfriend kind of of had his new girlfriend half moved in with us and his his new girlfriend half moved in with us and he would be playing terraria with her and they'd both be at his desk in the living room and she would just start beating the fuck out of him what the fuck and it was like i i was like i was like at home working on like a video or something
Starting point is 00:54:20 and then she just starts screaming and starts hitting him with her laptop to my knowledge they're still like together like i haven't talked to him in years but like insane moment and after that moment that's when they moved out and i don't i still don't know if my wife like talked to them and said hey you need to get out or if his girlfriend just hated me that much because she hated me oh my god normal this is such normal fucking behavior dude i i also think often about how his dad is like the richest man in town and then his mom is a very very wealthy psychologist and i would think often about how his mom would straight up just tell him and his brothers like stories about patients that she wasn't supposed to and then he'd be like dude i'm so
Starting point is 00:55:03 middle class this freaking world sucks like i'm so middle class. This freaking world sucks. Like I'm so middle class and everybody is like against my family. We're losing out on so much money. And his dad lived on a mansion on top of the highest hill in town with two indoor pools and an observatory and a custom theater.
Starting point is 00:55:18 Indoor pools? An observatory. I would go over to his dad's house and his dad would talk about his table. And it's like, yeah, this table cost about $100,000. It was a custom job from this great oak tree that they like tore down. And then he'd turn around and be like, man, my mom's really struggling. It's really middle class.
Starting point is 00:55:33 Like they live separately. The mom and the dad did. But his mom also owned a block away from his dad, owned an incredibly fancy house and like made a ton of money as a psychologist oh my god uh like i unlocked so many memories just thinking about him like how his mom was way into eve online and then all of him and his brothers were really into eve online and would constantly try to get me into it like dude you gotta join our corporation you gotta join it we're gonna be like running through the galaxy dude i did not expect you to say eve online i I thought it was going to be like Guild Wars or some fucking shit. Way into Eve Online.
Starting point is 00:56:07 And like to the point where like they would have family gaming sessions where Kyle and his like four brothers would all like gather around with the mom and they'd play in the kitchen Eve Online. So I'd go over and I was friends with him in like high school. So I'd go over when I was in college. And I just Eve online at the table everybody on like Alienware gaming laptops. If I saw family sitting around playing Eve online I think I'd have to like leave before I fainted. I just can't understand
Starting point is 00:56:34 that. Don't you fucking play Eve online? I haven't played Eve in a few years but it's just the culture of Eve is so like fucking hostile offensive to the senses. The fact the entire family is playing it it's weird it's like i walked into a family living room and the entire family was playing like league it's like they're all like asking like asking dwarf fortress yeah i just i just remembered
Starting point is 00:56:55 one of my exes did that but with overwatch with his family they would have overwatch family night i would get overwatch more than he i get overwatch though but yeah i remember being weirded out because while we were playing overwatch he would be like the fucking healer's a useless piece of shit and i was like dude i'm the healer or or sometimes like his dad would say something about his brother like you're fucking shit at this game and i was like man what the fuck is this i just unlocked the fucking nastiest fucking memory about this game and i was like man what the fuck i just unlocked the fucking nastiest fucking memory oh no okay i have to regale you with the tale of kyle and greg so i kyle kyle's like hey i made this friend at college um because i was i was going into college we went to the same community college i was just getting it he's like hey i met this guy uh we gotta go out to his house
Starting point is 00:57:44 out and like bum fuck nebraska and like hang out with him and drink with him and i'm like okay dude awesome so i get in the car and it's it's me and kyle and we drive to uh this guy greg's house and it's in the middle of nebraska they don't have internet they keep talking like when i get there they're literally talking about how they have to use like a verizon uh data thingy to like get internet in their home oh my god so it's it's it's me kyle greg greg's girlfriend uh who ends up becoming kyle's girlfriend later uh partially due to this incident oh boy kyle's girlfriend's friend i think her name was like allison or alley or something and so we're at this house and we're drinking we're just hanging out and chilling and then greg busts out this medallion with a big g
Starting point is 00:58:29 greg looks at me and he said have you heard of the gamer collective what the no no no no shit no shit he opens up his laptop and he starts showing me that he helps produce music for all of these video game rappers no no no 2013 2014 i swear to god it's like called the gamer collective and he puts on some music and one of the songs is called like man meat and i can't find it but i remember it goes like man i'm hungry for some man meat it's salty on my tongue and he's like playing this and he puts it on a loop they bust out the everclear and he's like telling me about how the gamer collective like they're trying to get the icp involved it's like all these different like video game rappers who are like around the area like
Starting point is 00:59:12 within like the hundred mile area of like nebraska and iowa how they're gonna like get like local concerts is a logical first step uh so like i think he just shows me a billion video game raps that i cannot remember. None of these guys. I can't find anything about the gamer collective. It's either like the game. It was the gamer something. I remember it in my head is the gamer collective. All I remember for sure is that there was a song called Alliance.
Starting point is 00:59:37 I'm going to try Alliance. The gamer. The gamer cabal. Something. It was something. And he's like going off about this like talking about all these different like rappers like doing call of duty raps like this guy raps about like boom lock it down and shoot it call of duty i'm gonna do it like it's like blowing my mind showing me
Starting point is 00:59:58 all of these gamer collective videos that he like helps produce and he's like yeah i'm doing like a bunch of local dj sets and i'm always putting like you know i put man meat on at this wedding the other day and everybody loved man meat oh my god they loved man meat uh and then the most awkward encounter of the night happened while everybody was drunk which by the way we were drinking straight everclear and grenadine because that was kyle's favorite drink oh grenadine wait grenadine and grenadine because that was Kyle's favorite drink. Grenadine and Grenadine Everclear and Sunny D. Cutting Everclear
Starting point is 01:00:29 with Grenadine. It was Grenadine Everclear and Sunny D. I can't remember what he called it, but it was something named after GoldenEye because he really fucking loved GoldenEye. Oddjob. I think it was. It was called the Oddjob. It probably was. That's actually not a bad name if you want to
Starting point is 01:00:45 like that's a good name to be fair but jesus imagine imagine like out-of-state farm people because this is like greg's girlfriend's house and like her brother's upstairs smoking something dubious and i'm downstairs like talking about the gamer collective and drinking uh ally just started like getting really drunk and she kept like walking up to me, trying to like grind on me and I'd walk away. It was a very, very awkward encounter to end the night on where every single time I would walk away, she would keep following me
Starting point is 01:01:15 and then keep trying to grind on me. Like, and just to say, man meat was playing the whole time and I was just confused as hell, like half drunk confused walking away like hey don't do that hey don't do that hey leave me alone hey thank you don't do that and i had to just survive the night it's salty on the heat man me following you around i'm just so confused and scared i like go upstairs and start talking to like the brother that's up
Starting point is 01:01:43 there and he's telling me about like yeah you know, we used to have cattle around here, but they all died. I think I think my sister was poisoning him because she fucking hates the farm. Whoa. Wow. I'm hearing about like farmer debates while I'm upstairs, like trying to hide away from like the grinding demon. May have been involved in cattle poisoning eventually like i leave and i escape and i was just like i never want to hear man meat again but kyle kept putting it on my fucking phone like torturing me with it like he would put it on my
Starting point is 01:02:17 fucking phone and i just like get a ring i get a call from my mom and man meat would start playing it was like genuine torture nerdcore collective no i don't know i do not remember all i remember let me tell you i remember a song called man it could have been something that was like confined to a like facebook group or something because there's one i found that's called the npc collective i don't think it'd be called that back then but i don't think it would be that i don't think it would be them because npc stands for nerdy people of color no it's definitely not them i'm trying so i need to know i'm trying to find the man meet i'm trying to find the man meet song and it's like i'm like having the hardest time about it because i think
Starting point is 01:02:55 all of these all of these songs from this whole like gamer collective they're all they're all gone they're all like disappeared into the void. Like, and they were all on Facebook, I remember. Not gonna lie, when you started like talking about that story, I was kind of waiting for the reveal of Mandy going, oh yeah, I edited videos for them and I tried to snuck in some Eve Online
Starting point is 01:03:18 footage. No. That happened one time. Nasty Eve Online things. I can't believe the EVE family existed. That's so fucking weird. Like if we saw in game like a corporation with a description of like, we're a family corporation. We figured that was a joke or a roleplay one. So I was in a, not roleplay one, but I was in an EVE group where the CEO was called dad and he made us all call him dad.
Starting point is 01:03:42 His name was actually XXDadXX. No! Let's see xx no he still plays wait he has a sound cloud oh no oh no xx dad xx yeah he ran a uh a mining corporation but it was just weird because we'd have to ask like you know dad can we have more minerals like dad i need to take the heart i need to take the retriever out i don't think it's the same guy no it's it's not i'm looking at it and this this xx that xx is seems to be like some kid that watches like anime i'm trying to see if i can find it i'm on facebook right now oh man he follows the uh the lock up sioux city page that's crazy lock up did you know my town has a uh my town has two facebook pages that keep getting taken down where all it does is post pictures of uh people who it all it does is like post pictures
Starting point is 01:04:37 of like people who get abducted or in prison what yeah it just posted if you get like sent to prison in my town your face gets put on facebook It's somebody who like works at the jail who keeps making a Facebook page to like post people's like lockup pictures.

Starting point is 01:12:53 into college i was like i have a girlfriend i have a girlfriend i have a girlfriend she kept like chasing me she was so drunk man oh kabuta the python is in fact an alter ego of famed nerdcore rapper mc front a lot oh my fucking god i don't want to hear the phrase famed nerdcore rapper ever again nerdcore is so embarrassing is that a real genre yes it is it's like what if rap was about mario i love I love these track names. Starcraft is racist. Is that a real stuff? I remember that song! It's like the first track on their
Starting point is 01:13:32 Sonic hits. This is a Pandora's fucking box. Starcraft is racist. From the Schmicks tape. This is a treat. Why is it racist? With a title like that
Starting point is 01:13:46 yeah that one has a lot of clicks on it oh my god jesus christ this is like opening the forbidden door this is opening the pandora's box i'm so fucking sorry how i i cannot believe i cannot believe the thing is it's it's so crazy to me right because it's one thing if these were people that were like they did this and then stopped and were forgotten a lot of the people in in these guys yeah actually have like notoriety and a decent following now everyone starts somewhere i'm like i it's amazing does that mean wait do it is man me on the on this just happens to be spotify the debut was a song called man meat that caused a very man woman to shake her ass at everyone
Starting point is 01:14:36 man witness firsthand man i was so scared man me oh this this page has the lyrics for everything that's so good pokemon wait they have a oh it's the pokemon hip-hop album of course there's a pokemon plateau oh there's like so much that's like a given song list like the gym leader shuffling listen to these lyrics y'all know me i'm sedimentary i'm better than gary i'm fucking scary you're little clefairy to the cemetery no do pokemon even survive here why yes but rarely that's fucked up and i don't know man i think this guy's got chops it's hard to make out a lot of starcraft is racist but one of the comments said it is kind of sus that the scfee is black So i'm not sure where this goes
Starting point is 01:15:28 Oh, it's about the protoss the fuck I can't do this dude so much Sometimes yo I just heard those insane fucking soundbites. Oh, let's go. Let's go. What is it? I I think you have to play this the snippet of it. Okay. Okay, it's one of the sickest bars i've ever heard no fucking man meat i actually had to play that back to know that i understood what he just said mandy mandy has the viper connection and i have the scrub club collective connection man when please stop talking drops that like uh diss track it's gonna be fucking nuts it's a racist game and i'm okay with that insane insane what's fucked is
Starting point is 01:16:43 after he says that my mind is so scrambled by this i was expecting him to say man meat right after it's a racist game and i'm okay with that man meat yeah we're going i don't even know if i can show it off in the podcast because that song like it's just sampling the it's just using the instrumental by chameleon Air. But if you play in your five seconds, no one will notice. Oh my fucking God. I'm so mad on the website. The delivery is incredible. They only have lyrics for two of the Pokemon tracks because I want to see the written tracks for all of these.
Starting point is 01:17:19 Time to download the thousands of albums and then go through them individually. I will put out a fan translation of the lyrics and put them up on Genius. I love fan translation. Starcraft is racist and I'm okay with that.
Starting point is 01:17:36 Dude. Oh my god. I made the joke if you go further down the lyrics thing for Welcome to the Stadium, they have a line by line meaning they have a genius like explanation for all the lines i'm i'm i i i i can't believe it dude i would have thought this is where everything would lead that's the problem when i unlock the man meets the man meets a racism pipeline oh my god it's on the same fucking album it's on the same album oh my god what there's a chance
Starting point is 01:18:17 that starcraft is racist played at that party too there's a chance it was playing that night they're called chammers i think it did i had that whole album on my computer for a while. Oh, it could have been playing. It could have been playing. I could have been running away while Starcraft is racist was playing. I'm like fucking shooketh. This took such a fuck turn, dude. That's incredible.
Starting point is 01:18:43 This went from New York to finding man meat, lost meat. Oh my God. This went from Jesus creating tables to Starcraft being racist. Why is Starcraft racist? I don't know. I don't know. I didn't listen to the whole song. I heard something about Protoss saying they're the best or something.
Starting point is 01:19:01 I need to see what the lyrics are for that and the line-by-line meaning because holy shit. Because I'm reading through one of them and it's got my Mewtwo tuned to annihilate Clefairy. One of our team's strongest and legendary Pokemon Mewtwo is specifically trained to take down even the most seemingly harmless
Starting point is 01:19:20 opponents like Clefairy. What? A hot 151 lurking because he because I don't want no berries. harmless opponents like Clefairy. What? A hot 151 lurking because he... Because I don't want no berries. Our team is focused solely on competition and achieving victory, so we don't waste our time on resources
Starting point is 01:19:33 like simple things like collecting berries. I can't believe they fucking made annotations. Like, oh, this is what I meant when I wrote this. Yeah, this is what I was trying... These are the bars. You know what? Hey, Shammers, come back. Fucking how long has this been 12 years later come back 12 years later and annotate the lyrics to starcraft is racist i need to know what you meant by it's racist but
Starting point is 01:19:57 i'm okay with it oh my god speaking of racist let's let's do the patreon questions uh if you're part of the five dollars and above tier on our patreon sir meow music you can ask a question for this section of the podcast is there is there songs songs so much you'll leave the room uh man meat who said that what is the question is there a song songs that you hate so much you'll leave the room when it starts playing if so why man man man me i will literally fucking leave if i see a bitch twerking to man meet i'm out i'm a married man if i hear man meet i know it's coming for me i gotta fuck man meets like your version of the langoliers man meet man meet you know that movie where that guy is like it follows man meet is my it follows demon
Starting point is 01:20:50 you're at the grocery store you hear man meet and then the two dudes from shammer start fucking bolting towards you at fucking high speeds you're're dead. You're so dead. You've never been more screwed in your life. Sweetmano asks, you go to the store to buy milk, but there are only two cartons left. One is labeled clown milk and the other is labeled dad milk. You can determine no further information about the milk other than that. Which carton do you take and why?
Starting point is 01:21:17 Dad milk. I would go for clown milk. I'm going dad milk. I don't want clown shit. Clown milk I'm picturing is like milk post fruit loops like cereal in a bowl yeah that like yeah yeah that's what i'm seeing i'm like because dad milk considering how people talk online oh i feel like you think it's spunk like oh that's his dad it's cum so yeah i feel like it would be cum i would pick dad milk because i'm terrified of clowns and I'd rather drink cum than drink anything
Starting point is 01:21:46 from a box labeled clown. I mean, what? This is a weird question. I guess they want us to assume what the milk means, the milk is. I would get clown milk. I hear clown milk and I think of that one video of that guy like,
Starting point is 01:22:02 I go to McDonald's and ask for Spartan, all they give me is clown juice. What is clown? I'm going to look at clown milk online. You're going to find a lot of pictures of clowns lactating. Oh, my God. Yeah, that's what Jordan Pearson was looking up a while back. I mean, I'm just seeing like clowns with giant fucking breasts.
Starting point is 01:22:23 Yeah, yeah. Clown milkers. I was like clowns with giant fucking breasts. Yeah. Yeah. Clown milkers. That's I was like clowns with giant breasts, clowns lactating. Dad's on the other hand, I'm thinking it might if it's like a real product and not like, you know, a joke product. I'm thinking like a smoky kind of milk. Clown milk are slash SCP. That's what I found.
Starting point is 01:22:39 It's a clown sitting in a chair and he doesn't look happy. I'm sitting in a chair and I don't feel happy. Maybe maybe you need to listen to Man Meat a little bit more. It'll wrap around. You're right. I've improved it. What have you done? I've unlocked the door to darkness. That goes hard.
Starting point is 01:22:59 Hardest bar has gone. I'll put that right here just so you can use it in your future endeavors it's a racist game and I'm okay with that maybe I'm hungry for some maybe
Starting point is 01:23:13 if you ever need this you can have it oh here's one that relates to the initial start of the podcast the maker of rain what's the best city slash country you've gone for a vacation Oh, here's one that relates to the initial start of the podcast. The Maker of Rain. What's the best city slash country you've gone for a vacation?
Starting point is 01:23:31 Ooh, that's a good one. I really like Chicago, honestly. Although, if I'm honest, I think Montreal is better. I really like where I live. But if I have to pick on vacation, I'd say Chicago. Chicago's got good vibes. Chicago's a very nice city to visit. I like it. Especially with how convenient the transportation was around everywhere.
Starting point is 01:23:49 Oh, yeah. It was super easy. And it's also not as stressful as New York, because New York is fucking crazy. Oh, yeah. New York, you spend so much time just trying to figure out what trains you need to get on. Yeah, and every train is like a fucking puzzle, because it's like, after 5 p.m., this train does not go to this, this, and that, but this train does not go to this this and that but this one goes to this this and that and this one skips this station but this one doesn't see it it's
Starting point is 01:24:10 like oh my god dude jesus christ just like a straight line brennan you got an answer oh i probably either chicago or colorado but i really like air air in Colorado a lot. That mountain air is good. I do like Denver a lot. Denver is a really nice city. I just think that Chicago is more my speed because I'm very city boy. Hate Iowa nature. I hate Iowa nature, but for some reason the bugs leave me alone in Colorado.
Starting point is 01:24:38 I don't know what it is. I hate nature in Iowa because I get swarmed, but I'm in Colorado and they're like we're not drinking that Iowan blood. I'm not doing it. Yeah, the Iowa blood. I've heard that Chicago's dangerous, but I've never been in a shootout. We drove by it. Do you remember our 4th of July when we had to stay inside? That's the joke.
Starting point is 01:24:57 There were multiple shootings while we were in Chicago. Good lord, what the fuck, man? I'm going to be the weeb in the room and say Japan I fucking love being in Japan it's so fucking cool I've always wanted to go to Japan super bad because it's so alien to me
Starting point is 01:25:13 everyone's so polite and nice and like the public transportation system is fucking rad and gets you everywhere you need to be the exact times you need to be there it's super convenient and also just being able to like walk everywhere walkable cities are so nice i'm told it like sucks a lot more to live there but
Starting point is 01:25:31 i i've not experienced it but i've heard the because when i was there i was like the white guy with like blonde hair blue eyes so like unironically i forget if i might have told this in like my previous time on the podcast but like I actually had people come up and ask for my picture, just completely unprompted. Just like, oh, can we get your picture? And I was like, huh? Maybe they thought you were David Hader. Because you do look like David Hader.
Starting point is 01:25:56 No, this is before I grew out my facial hair. This is before I grew out my facial hair. Okay. But no, it's more because it's like, oh, tall, blonde, white guy walking around. Like, we want your picture. And the first time it happened, it was more because it's like, oh, tall, blonde, white guy walking around. We want your picture. And the first time it happened, it was like a flashbang because I was standing in a line at one of the Harry Potter rides in Universal Studios. They thought you were an attraction. I'm just standing there fucking sweating my balls off because it was during a heat wave.
Starting point is 01:26:22 And I'm just like, fuck, I just want to go on the ride standing this line and there's like a collective of like teenage girls maybe like university age just like kind of like giggling in front of me and i'm just like oh they're just fucking talking to themselves whatever but they keep like looking back at me and i'm just like oh i you know i'm the whitey here maybe that's why and then one of them comes up to me and they're like picture and i go okay and at first i think they're asking me to take their picture as like a group and then they like around me and like hold their arm out for a selfie and i see that they have like a dog filter on it and it was really weird and then it happened and they're like oh arigato and then they walked away and i'm just like what the fuck just happened and that happened like three times i was like walking around in japan it's just like that's very random people
Starting point is 01:27:09 asked me for a photo oh dude i feel like that would happen to me just because of my hair like while even just in new york i it was like every day multiple times a day people would be like your hair is fucking sick dude red hair there was one guy that pointed at my hair one point and just said funny uh boo would especially get that because he's so large oh yeah boo would probably get a lot of attention yeah he would be that's why i like being around people taller than me because i i've gotten that too where like random people are like how tall are you and i'm like six foot five and they're like can i get a picture with you i'm like why look at the tall man that hasn't happened that hasn't happened yet uh for people to go up to boo and ask for a picture usually they just go
Starting point is 01:27:55 to him and they're like wow you're so tall damn you tall yeah damn you tall well thing is when the japanese visit here they'll kind of do the same thing my family is incredibly close with a uh japanese family and when they visited oh man oh fuck somehow they made it through the uh the airport without seeing any black people and we're in charlotte i do not know how they made it through the charlotte airport because we were driving to... Oh, there's this place in Charlotte called Discovery Place. It has a bunch of science gizmos. They have animals.
Starting point is 01:28:31 It's basically like a hands-on discovery center. I don't know. There's probably not a good term for it. It's like a science museum. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's more for kids, but it's a general family stuff. They have an IMAX theater built in. Oh, yeah. It's literally like for kids, but it's like a general family stuff. They have an IMAX theater built in. It's literally like the Montreal
Starting point is 01:28:47 Science Museum. Yeah. So we're driving up there and the I think the mom would stay with my mom because it was basically their grandfather and their two daughters, me and my dad. And their daughters were maybe like 8 and 10 or
Starting point is 01:29:03 8 and 12 at the time. And we're driving up and one of them goes ah she starts screaming and delight like ah it starts like it starts like point at the window and then and then the grandpa looks back too and he goes oh ah and he's pointing too and oh no my dad's like what's going on because he speaks like pretty decent japanese and he's like and grandpa's trying to find his words he's like oh black person and i look over and it's just some dude at a crosswalk like looking his phone and the youngest daughter she pulls out her little disposable camera no no no no no no no oh this fucking
Starting point is 01:29:49 that's so funny but it's so no i actually um i have a picture of some of them on my phones not the uh family not the black person dude at the cross the dude at the crosswalk? No. No, because the daughter, when they came here, they had ideas about America because they wanted to try a real American pizza. Which, you know, you would go, oh, we'll go to a local... They wanted to go to... Pizza Hut.
Starting point is 01:30:19 They wanted to go to Papa John's. Because I guess they have some Domino's in japan but i have a picture of when we gave them the um of when we gave them the papa john's and they're so fucking delighted oh that's dude that's so fucking awesome though i love that they were like so happy to have papa john that's so fun i love that they're like putting their hands yeah i know like yeah she's like feeling the heat like ah papa papa the papa she's feeling the heat of the that's what's happening there buddy i know it's so funny yeah my my dad was a big weeb that's
Starting point is 01:30:58 that's at least a wholesome way to like end that story of like oh and then we went for papa john's and they were like really happy to get papa john's yeah but no they like we've we've had our little cross-cultural stuff like i was never into anime because my dad knew about anime long before it was like a thing here so he would raise me on like vhs tapes of totoro and shit and like ghibli stuff that is wild so when i was growing up in middle school people like oh anime like anime isn't that shit for like babies i remember watching that when i was like five i i honestly cannot believe i honestly cannot believe that we just got the deep lore that your dad's a weed oh my god i might have the picture of my dad somewhere no oh my god are we gonna i have i have it's like it's like a ken sama picture are you serious that's so fucking funny, dude.
Starting point is 01:31:46 Holy shit. This episode took such a swerve. This has been the swerviest fucking episode we've had in a while. Just your dad in a kimono? Oh, yeah. It's him with the family. It's the whole family. Dude, this is incredible.
Starting point is 01:32:02 Of all the things, I did not expect you to say that your dad was a weeb. And that makes me laugh. And like old school too, like back in the day. Well, it was because I don't think it started as a weeb. Him and my mom, they took in an exchange student from Japan. They're just hosting her. Oh, and then it just kind of kept going from there. Yeah, it was when I was a baby because she came in and she scared the fuck out of me
Starting point is 01:32:26 because I'd never seen like... And she's like completely from Japan, completely foreign, like clothes, did not understand anything. Like I'm like two. And I suddenly see this woman who I've never seen anything like her before because I'm in the South.
Starting point is 01:32:40 And she goes like, oh, hi, I'm Yuko. And I screamed and ran the laundry room and shut the door i did not know how to handle it you that's like a fucking bit from home alone he does the macaulay caulking hands on the cheeks yeah yeah well because i just i checked out because like i don't they might have said they're like an exchange person was coming but i was like a little toddler i didn't know what the fuck was yeah i mean so suddenly you're like hi i live here now but like her family is really grateful so like
Starting point is 01:33:17 that we like visit each other and stuff and then they'd send my dad a bunch of like tapes and he's like i got these it's called totoro he's like there's like a big funny man and it had like like questionable english subtitles on it that's so funny holy oh my god oh yeah back in the day like old school subbing where it's just someone with a vcr set up like the tape did yeah like the actual vhs tape sleeve didn't even have like a uh it didn't have an actual like art cover on it it just looked like it was like it looked like a it looked like a bootleg basically yeah because he got it yeah from japan but it might have been someone had subtitled it over there and like burned it just onto any tape that they had yeah uh dude the number to be fair the number of like animated movies i had as a kid on vhs i were just
Starting point is 01:34:06 like burnt on random whatever the fuck that was that was just the thing yeah it's just in a sleeve and it's sharpie it says power yeah yeah yeah my was like uh mickey mouse christmas and then i you you watch it and it's like bambi and you're like, oh, okay. It is just Bambi. Yeah, just fucking Bambi. Can't wait for that live action remake. Are they doing that? Is that real? I'm pretty sure that's real. I've heard about it for so long, it has to be
Starting point is 01:34:36 real, right? But like, oh, wait, no, that would be real because they make all the CG animal shit. That's right. I don't know why I was envisioning it as like an onstage thing. Like they'd have people in college dressed up as the deer. You mean like Broadway Bambi?
Starting point is 01:34:52 I was really looking at it incorrectly. Oh my god. 2023 live action remake. I'm still thinking about how nobody remembers that they did make a Lady and the Tramp live action remake. What the fuck they did? They did, yeah. I remember seeing commercials and everything for it when I was working at Best Buy. that they did make a lady in the tramp live action remake what the fuck they did they did yeah i
Starting point is 01:35:05 remember seeing commercials and everything for it when i was working at best buy and i was like 2019 what the fuck oh it came out during covid no fucking wonder nobody remembers oh wow november 12 of fucking 2019 yeah yeah i was like right at the peak right at the peak before it all started. Yeah. It was one of those movies. I remember thinking, like, why do this? Like, what's the point? And then just not thinking about it ever again. And yeah, that seems to be the resounding response from, like, the meta critic and shit.
Starting point is 01:35:37 I don't even know what live action movie they've made anymore. Like, I keep learning about new... I learned about the Beauty and the beast one like super recently i didn't even know they made a live action remake of that oh yeah they're doing their own stitch now oh right because the rock is gonna play somebody right stitch i hope he plays stitch i hope no i think the eyebrow raise and it has the vine boom the rock is doing live action moana and he's just going to be Maui again. Oh, right. That's what... I don't know what...
Starting point is 01:36:07 I was thinking of Hawaii. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I just kind of lumped them in together. Oh, wait, no. They're actually doing live-action Moana. Yeah, with The Rock. What the fuck is the point? That movie just came out. Because they could go buy it. It might have been like 2016 now that I think about it. I can't remember. It's been so long.
Starting point is 01:36:23 The thing is, it's like if people buy it, they'll just keep doing it. I can't remember. It's been so long. The thing is, if people buy it, they'll just keep doing it. It's something to put on Disney+. If you film it, they will come. That's so true. Even that new Pixar movie I thought wasn't doing well. I guess that bounced back.
Starting point is 01:36:39 What's Pixar? I've seen a lot of TikTok clips of that. I saw the clawed one they put of that I saw the Claude one they put out that had like the oh I hope Billy saw that that one was really fucking good are you talking about the one that's like a little flame no a little block of
Starting point is 01:36:55 dirt yeah there's this little dirt man it's a little dirt guy yeah it's a dirt mound I fucking found it found it who could pick out my dad from this photograph that's good. I mean, that's funny. That's a good picture. There's another one I have, which is the one
Starting point is 01:37:10 I wanted to, but I can't. He's in a kimono with about 80 Japanese people. Oh my god. And he has the biggest smile and everyone else is not smiling. Who's the woman in the kimono that is clearly not Asian? I don't know, but it's not my mom. Oh, that was my guess.
Starting point is 01:37:25 I was like, that was my guess. I was like, that was my guess. That's why I was like, who is that? I don't know. I should probably ask him about that sometime. That's so fucking funny. But yeah, the one at the top, he's the grandpa now. He was the one who went, oh, a black person. Oh my gosh. Yeah, it's just a bunch of Japanese people
Starting point is 01:37:41 like, well, some of them are in kimonos and some of them are in just dress shirts and then just a white dude. Just if you picture a white dude in the 80s. You can tell your dad has really bright blue eyes as well. Yeah, you can tell we
Starting point is 01:37:58 share Aryan features. That's so funny, dude. That's so fucking funny. Meatman! it's such an old picture you can tell just because of what everybody's wearing in that picture you can tell like when this got fucking this is old dude this is an old fucking picture this is like early 90s holy crap man meat god man meat that was the exchange student the top right and then she's like no don't cry look i made you peas and i ate peas and i was happy
Starting point is 01:38:33 like snow peas oh dude kids are just baited you out of the laundry room like you're just like fucking putting peas on the floor. She left snow pea pods in the ground. No, I just like some smells kind of good and it came out. I was like, well, I didn't know peas could taste like this. Then my mom's like, I can make
Starting point is 01:38:55 you peas. And then it was very different. Extremely different. Man me. I have to stop. after that. Man me. Stop.
