This is episode 66. My name is Jeff Ramsey with me as always, Andrew Patton, Gavin Free, Nick Schwartz, Eric Baduer. Hello, boys. Hello. All right, a couple orders of business. One, I have two questions that are very important that I ask you guys this week that keep getting pushed. Also, we have about seven draft ideas we need to go over and make sure we're all on the same

page about so we can schedule those. and we should probably mention that the Gerpler launch happened. Yes. And it was, I think, we can say, a success. Absolutely. It was 10,000 in 12 hours. Is that right? Yeah.

Which means people had essentially a waking day to log in at their leisure and get a Gerpler or two. What if next time? 11,000. What if next time, 9,000? Why? No, too low. Oh, I'm just kind of given like, you know, six and one, half dozen things on.

I'm kind of going just like the other way to see. All right. I'll meet you guys in the middle of 10K. All right. Hey, I think that's a little bit. No, I think we learned a lot, though. We're definitely going to increase the, the Kuzler output. We make more of those.

We need to increase the combo patch deal when we do that. We definitely need more patch shirts. There's a lot of, we've got a lot of really good, interesting information from the sale. And I think we are getting really close to being dialed in on the amount of Gerplers. People have asked in the comments if we were going to be re-releasing this Gerpler.

Like most Gerplers, no plans to do that. We already began work on a new Gerpler that should be out later in the year and it'll be different. It'll be new and a different idea. Most of all, from the merch drop, thank you so much to everybody who showed up and supported us. Absolutely.

We appreciate it so much. Continue to be blown away by your support. Just happy that we also didn't frustrate you and annoy you by selling out too especially everyone who made it for the stream for the actual the drop yeah that was really cool 2 v2 Mario party I love that's what a fun different way to play that game I love watching that as a member of the only undefeated 2v2 Mario team I would seem to agree with you good old team G team G classic team g baby oh christ does anybody else have anything they want to talk about this

week? Any orders of business? Well, I think we need to get to your questions. You said that they keep getting questions. Let's go right into your questions. Hopefully these will inspire a little bit of conversation. The first question I have, I thought about this the other couple weeks ago. What is your favorite color to drink? And it can't be clear. Oh, because of Gavin. Oh, I see. I'm trying to think here. Immediately what comes to mind is orange. Okay. I enjoy orange drinks, generally. What about, though, because I like apple drinks quite a bit.

I'm trying to weigh if I like orange more than apple drinks. You ever get surprised by a drink? Oh, all the time. I feel like most drinks that look like piss are actually quite good. Yeah. Yeah. Like pineapple looks like piss, but it tastes delicious. Yeah, and like apple juice often looks pretty pissy.

Hmm. What color would you say coffee is? Are we calling it brown? Brown. Okay. That's my answer. I would say coffee, tea, and sodas all fall in the brown category. Yeah, you get Coke, you get root beer.

Yeah. I think if I can't pick clear, I'm going to say white. What's white? What's white? Milk? No, like maybe like an electrolyte drink of some sort. Oh, like a white Gatorade. Yeah, those are pretty good.

Yeah, like a glacier ice or something. You get glacier ice and milk. What a one, two choices. I only use milk. I never just go for a glass of milk, you know. Sure. I'm surprised. I figure, I expected, I mean, I kind of had an idea that Gavin would immediately try to say clear and Eric would say Brown.

But I'm surprised red didn't come up. That seems to be like the go-to for most people. I've been polling people in my life and almost everybody has said red. Red can swing in a lot of different ways. You're either getting cherry or like a strawberry and there's a lot of variation in fake cherry. Cherry's good, strawberry's good, watermelon's good. punch is just a combination of those and is good. I definitely don't ever

pick up red and go like, ugh. What about blue raz? Well, I haven't gone yet, but my answer is blue. I think blue is my favorite color to drink. Yeah. There's just not a lot of blue drinks, then immediately come to mind to me.

There's like three different blue Gatorades and powerades that I absolutely love. There's blue razz. Is there any new high voltage? There you go. Is there any fruit that produces a naturally blue juice? Oh. Because blue might be the most unnatural liquid color to drink.

I mean, even though everything's dye anyway, it's just like, what's blue? I feel like we talked about this. Have we talked about this in like a previous episode of like what's like the most unnatural food color? And I feel like blue is like the thing we landed on like a long time ago. What color would blueberries make? They're like purple. Purple, I feel like. Hmm.

Like a dark purple. Kiwi is like murky white I think so that's what and at least in my head you said Kiwi? Yeah Kiwi How would Kiwi not be green? Is it green? I feel like it's a very light green if it is green It's not like a bright green

It's a very bright green Isn't Kiwi like the brightest green? Kiwi's like it's yeah what are you What are you? No no no no the juice the juice if you squeeze the juice of a I don't think it's bright green Well we should find out Well, now we've got to start juice and shit and see if it matches.

We got to juice a fucking kiwi now. I don't, I don't know. You're telling me that's going to make white juice. I still don't understand. I just, oh. I mean, that's, yeah, that's green. As I said, that's how I pictured it in my mind, which is not, I'm not saying that was factual. That's just how I envisioned it.

Yeah. It's greener than it looks in my head. Do you eat the hair on a kiwi? I have I prefer not to but I have tried it I thought I wouldn't like it but it turns out it makes almost no impact on the taste

you're crazy do you think you might like eating other hair you just haven't realized it yet I would say if of all the hair that I eat kiwi hair is probably the best it adds a huge difference to taste in my opinion I'm surprised yeah

I think it's completely different it's like you put a rug on your food so we got we officially we got Eric down for brown Gavin is white and that figures

Andrew likes yellow or orange it sounds like and Nick and I are both blue boys yeah blue all right blue's pretty good

interesting interesting I feel like I could be persuaded in a lot of different ways plus Pepsi blue remember that yeah Pepsi blue

purple limited but good I was trying to think the other day of, you know how Andrew you've never had an egg and some other basic foods and stuff? I was trying to think of the most basic food that I've never had.

Big Blue. Oh, that Big Blue. Is that the same company as Big Red? Yes, it is. Oh, I would like Big Blue way more than Big Red, I think. Yeah, it is. It's better. What is the most basic food you haven't had, Gavin?

I think the most, the food that I've passed by the most without eating is spam. Oh, okay. I've never gone for spam. I don't even really know what it is. is. I assume it's just like pig awful. It's a process to meet. Can't, didn't we have a conversation recently, Gab, about doing a new show where we, what was it called? What do we call it? I think it was you that I talked to. Or, uh, where we talked about doing this very thing? I think it was me and it was

like first timers or something like that. First timers club or something. Yeah. Yeah, it was something like we do, we correct mistakes in our lives that, uh, like Gavin having never tried spam, Andrew, never having an egg, me never trying, I don't know, whatever, some white shit I've never had. And it's like, we just, like, with all the things that we should have done that we've never done, we create a list. And it's like, like a bucket list of things that we should have done at this point in our live that we haven't. So it's like a bucket list of, of cherry pops. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good way to put it. A bucket list of cherry pops. Yeah. Horrific. Horrific. Horrific way to

put it. This is a, we had to talk last episode about things that I prefer when free or that I think are only good one free. I compiled a little bit of a list that we could go over a lot of food on that list, surprisingly. This is what I have so far. Things I only like when free. Melon, sausage links, mince, suckers, toothbrushes, spinach, raspberry, anything behind a ticket counter. Samples, Mark Wahlberg movies Getting Feet Measureed, Potato Skins Wait Things I only like from free

Who's ever paid to get their feet measured? That's a good point That's fair It's just the thing I would never pay for I guess was the thing I thought of I like healthcare That's a good one That is a good one

That is a good one But that's good just generally health care is great health care and necessity these are things that I only enjoy when free or that I would only opt for if free what do you mean sausage links

like sausage links so you would never buy a toothbrush I wouldn't be excited about buying a toothbrush but if I get given one for free I'm happy about it but I would never I'm never excited about getting one

not even an electric one oh a sausage because there's a sausage yeah yeah sausage Instead of a patty or a crumble. Big fan of the patty. I'm a big fan of patty too. Like that's the default sausage, though, that picture. That's sausage.

That's one of the ways that a person can eat sausage, yeah. Like, I would say that it's sausage there, and then the sausage patties as like the side thing, the separate thing. I think what you're learning is that you just don't know what a sausage link is. It's an unfamiliar term to you. Yeah. That's like calling it a melon fruit. Like, we know it's a fruit.

No, but it's a link. That's the link, yeah. It's unlinked. It's not... Oh, do you think you could make a sausage chain? So do you think a chain, the links in a chain when they're unlinked, stop being links? Uh, well, link in a chain is closed off, isn't it? Yeah, but these were two and connected at some point.

They've been cut apart. Yeah. I don't think Gavin understands sausage at all. sausage is the shape it's sausage like if you a sausage dog there's sausage links

okay sausage is the ingredient the link is the method it's being delivered to you by link or patty or crumble exactly

hell if anything crumble I think would be the most pure sausage just the inside stuff I just think if something's like a sausage or sausage

it's that exact shape I think that could apply to anything I just it's what your preference so So when you called me many times in the past, a silly sausage, that's what you were referring to, me in link form? Yeah.

I mean, you could, yeah, I think so. That's what I was envisioning. What's strange about this conversation is Gavin is articulating it in a way that someone is wrong when all he's doing is stating his perception of this thing. Absolutely. Oh, sausage patty. Oh, there's some good patties. So that, would you say that's more the base sausage than the link? No.

No, I think the link is the most common, but it's just called a sausage. Absolutely. Yeah, a sausage link is the most common distribution method for sausage, I would say. Yeah. By far. Those are my list. Potato skins, best tasting item, way too expensive on menus. What do you mean by samples?

Like, if you go into a grocery store and they're handing out samples, I'm always going to like the thing on sample, but I will never enjoy it as much as I do in that context. if I buy the product and take it home, it will not be as good. Interesting. I thought of another question. I have three questions. I only asked you guys one. Next question.

Do you guys think, this isn't the one I just thought of. This was the, I had already thought of this one. Do you guys think that anyone's ever, I was buying bread the other day, right? I was looking at a loaf of wonder bread. I was just thinking about how much,

is there like a standard amount of slices of bread in a loaf? And I was like, well, I could count. and then see if it's the same as, like, the butter... And I was like, this is stupid. I'm not going to do this. But I was just thinking about, like, a loaf of bread's a lot of bread, you know, just like a regular-ass loaf of white bread. And that got me thinking, do you think anybody has ever made one sandwich

out of an entire loaf of bread? Oh, God. Like, if you had an uncut loaf and then carved it and put... No, no. Cut and sliced, but it's like... Think of, like, a club sandwich with 80 floors. Oh. Like, you just keep layering with... You use each...

You use... use each slice of bread, but you have to use an entire loaf to make one sandwich. I just think three is the limit of my jaw. I believe this is how the director of the raid pitched at the studio. So he had eight,

he had an eight layered sandwich. It was like, imagine bad guys on each one of these fours. I just can't help but think it a vertical loaf of bread with just a bunch of lettuce and tomatoes and sandwich meat sticking out of it that looks like, you know,

a tower would be a striking visual image on a plate. You're talking like Scooby-Doo style sandwich. Yeah, Scooby-Doo sandwich. It's like a real Scooby-Doo sandwich. I want, if I'm going to make a sandwich out of my bread, I'm cutting that bitch sideways. I want long slices on my loaf of bread.

Cut my bread sideways, lengthwise, so we get long slices, and I'm stacking it up that way. Can we do it both ways? Can we try both? Can we get pre-sliced loaf of bread and then an unsliced? Yeah, I want to see, I want to see if I make the bread tower that Jeff's talking about, I want to see if we can. That was what it was first envisioning.

I think if we did do the tower with all the slices, we would have to employ one of our sandwich flattening techniques to get it down to the size that would fit in a mouth. Maybe we could use the guillotine. I like that a lot. All right. Somebody add a note. I'm doing it right now.

I'm putting the idea bank right now. All right, thank you so much. Yeah. While you're putting that in there, let me posit this question to you. Gavin, you get $175,000. Tax-free? Tax-free. Okay.

Actually, you get whatever it is, like, after taxes. So you get, like, that's your net, right? I don't know what the gross was. Whatever the, whatever, the growth, you get the gross of whatever it takes for you to get the net of 175,000. So it's above board, you've paid taxes on it. That's your cut, right?

So it's somewhere in the 250 range, probably. But for one year, when you want to eat a food, You have to eat all of that food, but you can only eat one of that food. So, like, if you wanted a blueberry, you're allowed to have one blueberry in a 24-hour period. But if you wanted a pizza, you have to eat an entire pizza. If you wanted a watermelon, you have to eat the entire watermelon, because that is one unit. But if you wanted Dorito, you could only eat one Dorito. Okay. So, like, if I can hold it, if I can pitch it between two fingers and it just dangles, I can eat that.

Yeah, I think so. I mean, you can eat anything as long as you, eat exactly one of that thing. So you'd have to be really careful about your cravings, because, like, the first thing I thought of was like, oh, I just, I'll fucking eat fruit all day long. I'll eat one orange, one apple, one water, whoa, whoa, one water hormone would take me some time. One fucking cantaloupe would take me some time, you know? Yeah.

One porterhouse steak, that's going to fuck you up. But, you know. So cereal would suck. Yeah. Yeah, I think, I think, I actually, it's interesting you say that. I got stuck on cereal because of my head it was like,

would it be one chirio or did you have to eat the entire box of churios? I think it would be one chirio with a whole milk with like a whole carlum. Yeah, you'd have to use all of the milk

in the container and you can only put one cord. Do you think if it's like one Dorito, then it has to be one shirio. Yeah, that makes sense, right?

So you'd just have to be like, you'd be like, all right, I want some bacon. I'll have one slice of bacon. I'll have one sausage link. I think I would be buying a lot of like, I'd be going to a lot of shitty hotels that don't have a proper breakfast, but they have that, like, dog shit little bar with the little packets of peanut butter that are

tiny, you know, that kind of thing. So I'd be taking one bread, folding it over, using a little peanut butter. I'd be just be getting, like, tiny versions of everything. You could do that, because otherwise, if you wanted a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, you would have two pieces of bread and an entire canister of peanut butter and an entire canister of jelly. I wonder if they do a little goober. They probably do. Yeah. You'd have to get, like, you could only buy food at, like, truck stops.

Interesting. I would do this. Well, like pasta would be annoying, too. I like pasta. Like, yeah, right? One spaghetti. One spaghetti. Gotta make that nude on. Gotta get the most out of it you can. If you wanted to put tomato on your burger,

you'd put an entire tomato on your burger. Well, what if we had a draft of one foods? Like a food that you only ever eat one of eat. Like a hot dog is one bun. It's one dog. I guess you're having a little bit of ketchup. Some people are. I want to have a draft.

See, I want the other way where we would have to draft the food that you wouldn't want to have to eat one of. But it would be for other people. So like, like what you just said about cereal and milk, because it would be one cereal and a whole got like a whole milk. that is that would be like a number one on the draft for me i think that would be fantastic drafting the worst one food yeah i think sources are out if you bought a bag of rice how long would it take you to finish the bag oh my god it would be how many how many rice is there in a yeah is it's a lot of rice worth yeah i would think so uncle bent's not called that right that'd be a decade worth i i don't even know how you would cook a rice a rice

the same way you would cook all the rice just put it it's the same two to one rice to water so you get half of a grain of rice of water I think you could get a little egg cup like an induction egg cup

there's no way what you get up and say oh my rice cooker's done I'll be back in a moment it's just one singular rice we should have a one blade of rice cook off

can you write that down one grain of rice cook off yep so you can cook one grain of rice Who decided, who decided that rice cookers have the ugliest I'm done sound? I can't say I've listened to a variety to, no. Oh really? They're always just like, ah, mine doesn't make a sound, it just kicks off. Yeah, mine just made a ding.

Oh, I used it last night. I've just been having bad rice cooker luck. What about a draft that's the opposite of this, where instead of like a one food or one worst food draft, it's the foods that you can eat the most of. So it's like blueberries, Doritos, like things that when you eat, peanuts, you just eat like a handful, a ton of. I think that's fun. Cuscus. Cous. Cous. Be great with. Yeah.

I love, you know, cuscus is a thing I never think of, but I really enjoy. I do too. I really like cusses. You know, lentils is that way for me as well. I really like lentils, but I never think about them. Well, I think that, like, cuscus is small enough you could eat it through your nose. Yeah. Do you want to do of foods that Gavin can eat through his nose draft? No, the pool is too big. Imagine...

Oh, I asked for that. He says that you have a big nose. Imagine if your mouth was, like, cemented shut for a week because of medical reasons or whatever. You would still be able to eat through your nose. If it was small enough. I had my jaw-wired shut for six weeks when I was 17 after my jaw surgery,

and at no point did they think to put the food through my nose. I wish I had. But imagine if you've just done a line of cuss-cus, and then you're like, You know, you suck it back and it's a new mouth and you can just swallow it like normal. Don't you hate when you get texts

for somebody to, like, do dinner plans and you can't because your mouth has been cemented shut for a week? Well, because due to medical reasons. It's the worst. Always happens to me. Yeah. Jeff, you're talking about, like, new draft ideas,

but I feel like we have so many that we're already sitting on. I know. These are all just popped up all at once. Uh, okay, should we go through the list of draft ideas that we had and video supplemental ideas that we had on the boat the other Sunday? I, yes, and I do want to preference, I want to preface some of this, that some of these are ideas that we all said, yeah, and then some of these are ideas that, um, maybe just one person was really excited about, but, but they're on the list, so.

Should we do a speed run of these? Because I haven't heard these and I could go thumbs up, thumbs down. Should we do a speed one or Gavin just said the, the, the ST word? Should we do, is this a sausage shot, Gavin? Is that what you're saying? Well, it sounds like it. Oh, wow. You guys want to get into a sausage talk then, like on a day very soon to talk about these drafts?

It's been a while. I'm going to post-girp, aren't we? Sure. Yeah, we are post-Gerp. So maybe we should hold off on these. All right, audience, enjoy the ideas we just gave you. But hold on, the other seven or eight will be coming in a different format. How?

Fly the seven-time world's best leisure airline champions, Air Transat. How many of your, because I was talking to Megan, she doesn't have the same thing. How many of your turds are emotional, would you say, in a given month? What the fuck? Now, do you mean the act or emotional in the sense that there's a squirrel massacre going on above me when using the bathroom? Because I feel like you might have a unique perspective. Squirrels are out. Squirrels are out?

Good. Well, they're either trapped in. or trapped out. Now, do you think it was the snake? Do you think there's just one very fat, happy snake in your ceiling? I don't think so. I think they probably just sealed the whole shut like a mouth for medical reasons. Pumped it full of gas. Yeah. But like sometimes I'll just walk into the living room and my eyes are watering and I got like a runny nose and Meg will be like, oh my God, what's happened? And I've just had a bit of an emotional one. I don't think I've ever had that what you're describing. Like this shit makes you tear up?

Yeah, there's no actual emotion It's just like my face starts to leak No, zero You've never had that? I've never experienced that No Really? I mean No Shitting is a constant part of my life

And an often difficult part of my life And a very Very frequently painful part of my life And even then I don't think I've ever gotten emotional about a shit God What's wrong with me then? I say like maybe one a month I get

I get a bit sniffly from it You get sniffly from it? That's odd, I feel like. Do you think you had some sort of attachment to the dinner you ate the night before and you're sad to see you go? This guy, he wants to eat flavorless protein cubes. I don't think there's an emotion with the food. Yeah, that's interesting. I didn't say flavorless, did I?

I just feel like you would opt for flavorless. I think when you're dealing with protein cubes, flavorless is assumed. That is true If it's flavored Then why are you not just eating that thing I feel like the whole point of the cube Is that it is zero joy It is just the nutrients

The cube is that it's nice and quick Like you could I could have lunch as quickly as it takes me To like pick up my keys before going out of the door Yeah I get I yeah You live your life You live your fast food life whole other level of fast food

when you go out the door do you take physical keys with you that's a good question yeah I just assumed you'd have like a little you'd open your front door with your phone or wave your hand or something technological Gavin strikes me as an eyeball scan guy

yeah like retinal scan to open your front door absolutely cool but then I feel like people would be off to my eyes I think I mean I get where you're coming from but I guess I feel like

if they're that determined there's other issues Yeah I take my keys not my eyes Yeah fair enough I have a condon idea I want to run by you guys I'm very excited about

A condo about content Oh content I thought he's in continence. I thought he was going to make a... Continent, yeah, we got a continent idea. You got to name them all. My content idea is, because we just got the guillotine, we showed from Jackass 4, our big prop, the most recent prop we got.

That was somehow less expensive to acquire than any of the other props that we've bought by like times 3. Yeah, that was a boggant. I think including the other prop we got in that auction, which we haven't. talked about because we forgot that we have, it's just in a box, but we have all of Aaron McGarrity's cups that he wore when he got hit in the dick various different ways.

I think we have like three of them. We have the slap shot one for sure. I think we have his hockey jersey. For when he was doing the hockey one. But we have the guillotine. And I want to put my money where my noses. I was thinking about this. I think we should all

create models of our nose and then stress test them by dropping things using the guillotine on them. I mean, I've been trying to get you to scan your head for a year probably. That's a more ambitious thing. That is more than nose. Yeah, but it makes sense for the nose to be on the head,

surely. So you want everybody's full heads? Yeah. And then we got just like a bag of heads. I think that's great. I mean, I think that's a funny idea. It's just tougher to get head models. Gav, do you have a line on a bag of heads you can get us? I can just print everyone's head. Okay. Okay.

I love this idea. Does that work for you, Andrew? Yeah, I mean, we could do it. I'll have to figure out measurements for it. But didn't he give you a phone and an app to scan like a hundred times? He did give me an app thing, but with when you have a beard and

like my hair, like the beard is mainly the issue. Yeah, but I can I can deal with your beard. I'll just shave it down in my software. You can shave me via your software? Yeah, I'll like cad to wear your beard a little bit. See, but then I would feel like you're fucking with my setup.

I feel like if my nose gave way, it would be because you manipulated the facial structure. Well, does there exist a bald cap for chins? I don't know. because I feel like uniform could get on that definitely. A bald cap for chins? Yeah, like a chin cap. I like this. Put it up there with the tongue

tongue gloves. I did something recently where I had to scan my face into a thing and it was an absolute... You mean the thing Gavin's been asking you to do for like a year? You've done it already for someone else? I did a different face scan.

You know what he did. You know what he did. I did a different face skin and it was the worst experience I've had in a long time just because I tried to use the bala clava of my face for the cam

but it doesn't fit my face it's too small and so it was gripping my face so I did it once and I took it off and I was like finally done didn't work so I thought shit okay I guess I'll just leave it on until it works

I spent 45 minutes with it squishing my face telling me that you need to do it again it didn't work without any other instruction and I eventually had to give up on it but it was just grueling I was so mad at the world and my own face my own face was preventing me from scanning my face the world will be able to see the results of your actual scan

pretty soon on the gameplay channel I love it's true I love this idea of using the guillotine in every day for other things, right? Like finding multiple uses for it. Like I think it should be how we cut sandwiches or bread or anything that needs to be sliced going forward. I was thinking we could even set it up with some tubes of paint where we could put a canvas in front of it and then drop the skateboard at different heights onto like tubes of paint and see if we can make paintings. That's fun. Yeah. My initial idea was to model my nose.

and then Gavin you print it and then we like glue it to the Dilbot and drop the Dilbot from it to just do a nose test that way so you would just drive the Dilbot onto its nose from a height I think yeah yeah and I think the nose I might be able to still work around it

I'm not sure where the camera is in relation to the device obviously don't want a nose to block the center of the camera but I think there's a way to make it work yeah I think just below the little black bit would work Below the eye bit. I just really like the idea of testing the nose with the guillotine. I think it's the perfect device to truly determine who has the most unbreakable nose.

So should we print it in a material that will break and see who breaks the most, or do we want them to be as sturdy as possible? That's another great question. It all has to be the same material. Yeah, I don't think it matters as long as they're all identically strong. Yeah, I think that's the way to go. I think it's a great idea to print the whole head as well, because we could just leave the heads down by the guillotine.

It's a great idea. So it just looks like a bunch of people got beheaded. Yeah. I like it. We got to figure out a bald cap for a chin, a chin cap. Or just do it with the beard. I don't, okay, okay, I will. I'll give it a go.

Does anyone have a tattoo on the inside of their lip? Tons of people. No, I mean, on this pocket. No. No. Did you want to get one? I'm not an enslaved vampire. You don't want to get a FTW?

That was always the big one. Fuck the world. I'm just, I'm like too scared to get a prop one, but I feel like I'd definitely get one on the inside of my lip. I bet it hurts like a motherfucker to do that. I would get, um, I'd get High Stanley written upside down. Why? Just the name of my dentist. So whatever, he's rummaging around in there, he'd be like, oh, hello?

I don't think he's going to notice. You don't? He would definitely notice. That would be funny if you did that, and then you're Dennis retired, and then you had to spend the rest of your life trying to find another Dennis named Stanley. Oh, that would suck. Yeah, like if I couldn't find another Stanley and a different person saw high Stanley, that would suck. I was thinking about this with my wife the other day.

I was thinking, God, I'm never going to get divorced again. I'm going to be with Emily for the rest of my life. Guarantee you. guarantee you. I'll move heaven and earth to stay married to this woman. However, if for whatever reason we did end up divorced or apart, I think I would only date women named Emily going forward so that I would never have to worry about calling somebody the wrong name or schooling up, writing a card, or you know what I mean? Like, just limit the dating pool down to that name, and then you're safe. It is awkward. Oh, I'm sorry, I named you after my

dead wife. Sorry about that. I was thinking about the woman I loved who died. You've killed Emily in this scenario, and my scenario, she's not dead, but... No, I'm just saying I think that's the most emotional mistake-wise. Yeah, but you're the one that said someone was going to get divorced this year, so you would think that you're just

hoping for the divorce. Yeah. Instead of a death. I wasn't hoping for it. It was just a statistical probability. Do you have to get divorced from someone who died, or is it just so much that doesn't count, actually. If one of our spouses or one of us die this year. That does not count as a divorce for Andrew. Yeah, take that, Andrew. I got to call

somebody one second. You got to call them off. Yeah, I got to call it off. Andrew, when did the, you know, my, my uploading score, when does that end? That's in August, right? This month. Well, it was this, yeah, it was originally August and then you went on vacation for like a month. And then we joked about, oh, if you were gone again, like, I guess we should push it back because you were gone for a month and then you were gone for another like three weeks after that. What are you talking about? When was I gone for a month or three weeks? Last month

and then the month before that. The seven weeks you were gone, Gavin. Yeah, dude, come on. But I did like eight recordings. That's like saying you've been gone for five years. What are you talking about? I'm saying we did a lot of recordings at a time to cover your absence. But there were recordings that would have occurred that you were not part of. I was on a plane, I was around

for the rest of it. He's got that is true. We both did film recordings on our vacations with you guys. Here's the thing. You both recorded things. Jeff, you were in someone else's set up so it's not like I'm going to randomly ask you. It was very nice that you're able to, but it wasn't like

you could drop in or drop out whenever you want to. Gavin, you're on vacation. You're away. So even though you are available. What are talking about? You're back home. You're not, you're not, I don't know what you're doing. you don't say what you're doing you just say I'm out out could be I'm with the family in Spain out could be I'm doing a job

I don't know I have no idea and then when you do when you are at the thing you just send us a picture of you holding a laptop toward the sky because there's no internet I did have to stand in a field to upload the okay that video that's true well now I don't I don't want to defend Gavin for being out so much because personally very difficult but but there is a difference in the calendar, if you look at last month's calendar, which Gavin doesn't have access to for some reason, uh, it is listed to as Gavin out and then listed as Gavin out out, which meant he was on of it, which is insane thing. He's on a, so Gavin out is Gavin out is out, but still

sort of available for some stuff. But he changed one of his out out days. And then out changed. Yeah. But that didn't matter because Nick was out. Yeah, Nick was out and then Nick's also out tomorrow but I don't think Gavin's out out out out. I think you just need to give us out out days Gavin. Just don't give us out out days. Why? Or only give us out out days, sorry. I said that way. Yeah, I feel like

all of Nick's out days are out out out days. I agree. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. I schlepped like recording set up at an Xbox across the world and I'd say it was only out out. But yeah, shall I only give you out out days? I think only out days because then if I look

and I go Gavin's technically available I'll ask you to do things. Okay, well, I'm going to go ahead and go the other way and say, don't fucking do that because this is going to be an issue when we go, okay, let's meet at 11, and you go, well, that's not going to work for me because the time is so different here. That's, so we, I need to know when you're, you know, when we have to make adjustments for a calendar.

If you phrase it differently? I think out and out out totally makes sense. That's how I feel. I mean, I was still on the lay stuff. I did a Tony Hawk stream at like 11 p.m. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's great. And so it's good to know that that stuff is happening.

So that way we don't have to rely on you for that stuff and we can work around it. But what Andrew, I understand what Andrew's saying, from a producer's standpoint, please don't do that to me. Okay. But if we're going on Andrew rules based on what Andrew just said in the last two months, I was out out for four days. Okay, continue. Continue with what? With how, with have I made it to the end of the freaking, I've uploaded everything I needed to? You extended it to September, but...

But it's only four days. Just take... Calm down. Okay. You're getting really mad. You're heated. When really, what I have in my notes is to say, Gavin, thank you've done a really good job of uploading. It's in my notes.

Oh, thanks. You've done great. He's on your side. You're on my side. You've made a significant improvement in availability for that stuff or like making sure it's there, not availability, but like that. It's in its folder. You've done great. I literally have it in my notes.

Give Gavin credit. He is shifted and made a change. I'm no longer constantly asking him to upload things. Wait, that's what your note was? And then we went through all of that to get to your note. Yeah, because that's the way he wanted it to go. Yeah, Gavin shouldn't be so combative

every time someone's trying to compliment him. Well, I mean, I just think it's wild that he's He said I was on vacation for two months. Well, I don't know. You were out of the country for two months. You didn't say, he didn't say two months. He said seven weeks. Okay.

I apologize. I was thinking maybe for the next yearly counter experiment. Do we know the average on burgers? Because I think we would have wildly different numbers. I think average. Andrew is going to be the one to be. We're looking at, oh, that's Google AI, I don't trust that. 150 burgers a year?

Don't, don't, don't, don't read the Google AI and then just say it. That's not what we're doing. We've got to find an actual, we got to find a source. Well, I'm reading all about burger.com. Hang on, hang on. You're reading all about burger.com? AABurger.com, all about burger. They're like a national burger society

The average American eats three burgers a week Which adds up to more than 150 burgers a year According to All About Burgers.com Three a week There's no there's no way That 150 that's not we have we got to be a better story That's insane dude I not to get into a whole hot dog thing of it

But I definitely probably eat three hamburgers a week Are you serious? It's like the to me the hamburger is lunch It's the standard American lunch If I'm out and I'm hungry, I'm like, oh, just swing by and grab a burger from Pete Terry's or... I will say, did you eat a burger yesterday? Oh, I think we should do this, because I'm fascinated.

I think I maybe do one every two months or something. I don't want to do... I don't want to get into sausage talk territory, because I know we have that coming up, but one of the ideas on the drafts board is also another yearly food-related thing. So we have some other stuff as well. Okay.

But I like this idea, and I'm into this idea. When would you want to start? Do you want to start September 1st? Yeah, like back to school? That's, uh, that's labor. Is it Labor Day? September 1st? Yeah, that's Labor Day. All right.

So September 1st to September 1st, Labor Day to Labor Day. Let's, uh, let's count our hot. And it's not a contest. Not a contest. I just, I do need an important clarification is a double and a single the same or is a double tuberous. That's the same. It's a single item. Like if you can order it as like, it would say one next to quantity, that's the item.

Okay. Then I feel like we should know doubles or singles as well. This doesn't make sense. We got to like really dial in on like this number because some of this is this does not seem right. It doesn't make sense to you, but I'm telling you, after the hot dog thing, I saw so many comments from people who were like, Jeff said that it's insane that anybody could eat 70 hot dogs in a year. But he just doesn't understand the common man. I've eaten 450 hot dogs a year. I ate 800 hot dogs last year. Jeff doesn't know what he's talking about. Not the common man.

I have 100 hot dogs a month, and it's like, fucking Christ, you might, but I don't think my mother has had a hot dog in 20 years. I don't think my daughter has had more than three a year. My wife has had about 10 in the last year. All the guys I work with have fell in somewhere between like a 10th or a quarter of the yearly average. I came like 90% towards the yearly average, and I was trying to hit it. I think that there's a lot of people out there in the world who don't eat as many

hot dogs as you think, just like there are obviously a lot of people out there who eat more hot dogs than you think or that I eat, obviously. The pool was all Americans. Yeah. It wasn't just the common man. Yeah. Yeah. It's all Americans. I was thinking about

if I had ever hit the hot dog quota, and I think I did in the summer of 05. That's a specific. I'm sure the summer of O'5. That's a big hot dog summer for me. How do you remember? You would have been 11. I don't remember the company, but they had just introduced a product named the top dog,

which I really liked, where it was a singular, like, weener in a little plastic casing, and you could throw it in the microwave, and then the casing would split, and you'd know it was done, and then you'd peel the casing, and then you'd pop the dog on a bun and eat a hot dog, and I ate so many top dogs the first year that they were around, which I think, at least in my market, was the summer of 05. I probably was eating like two or three hot dogs every day. I was trying to think how do you make a hot dog less healthy and putting it in the microwave in plastic seems to be the way.

Oh, it's a top dog, baby. What do you mean less healthy? It's number one. Andrew, something about the way you said hot dog summer really got to me. It was a hot dog summer. I really like, I want 2005 to be known as hot dog summer. I just looked up a list. I don't know what exactly we can do with this,

but I wanted to see what other products were introduced in the summer of 2005, so I put a Wikipedia list. Maybe we should do some sort of a thing themed around the summer of 2005 someday. Do you know that's when the shuffle and the nano came out? Really? And a Hurricane Katrina? Apple Remote. Beaver Buzz. I don't know what that is. Tag body spray. Now we're talking. Yeah. Furryville. All right. Oh, it's something different. Ferryville is different. Anyway, I want to investigate hot dog summer of 2005 in some way in the future content related. Oh, LifeStra.

I, uh, this is crazy. According to the USDA, 222 pounds per person of ground beef, which averages out to 2.4 burgers per day. There's no way these numbers are right. But that's not, that's ground beef, dude. Yes, I agree. That could be spaghetti sauce.

That could be a lot of things. Absolutely. This is like, we have to like drill down and like find the average it's it might be three i'm finding a lot of places that say three burgers per week yeah i think that's the average i think it's the average i mean if the think about this way if the national average is like 75 hot dogs a year why wouldn't it be double that for burgers according to pbs americans eat three hot dogs or i'm sorry three hamburgers a week 156 hamburgers a year 156 is the over under 156 in regards to this chicken burgers different thing not

accountable, only beef? Are chicken burgers part of this? It's like a set, like a, if it looks like a burger. I think here's, chicken burger sounds weird to me, but turkey burger I would allow, so I guess I got a allowed chicken,

yeah. Or like a lamb burger I would allow. So any food that is called burger is part of the burger, like we understand what a burger is and as long as it fits that, okay. I think the burger is the format, yeah. Got it.

If the burger comes, say, like, you know, normally it's served on a bun, but what if it was a specialty burger that served on, like, a tortilla or, like, a bed of lettuce or something? No, I think that's. There's some pretty, yeah, like, are you talking about, like, those, like,

that place in San Antonio that has, like, those Frito burger things? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Or, like, you could get lettuce as a, instead of the bun. Like, they're, I'm fine with all of it. And also, like, near meat would count

impossible burger, anything like that. You don't meet alternatives. Yeah. Any veggie burger I just don't see how it could be a burger If it's a tortilla Oh it's still a burger How

It's hamburger meat Formed into a patty We just said chicken was fine Like a chicken in a tortilla It's not a burger to me Um True But if it's called

If it's a specialty item on a menu And it's called like The something something burger That's served in a tortilla I think if it's in the burger section Of the menu I think you're fine Yeah if it's listed under hamburgers You're fine

Okay Yeah. I think if you're just doing this at home and calling it a burger, that's one thing. But if you're going to a restaurant and they're doing a specialty thing, I think that's totally in the clear. Excellent. I'm excited. These are going to be interesting totals. September 1st. I think I'm like, oh, man, I feel pretty good about this. I definitely eat more hamburgers than hot dogs. It's not a contest. No, a contest. Not a contest.

Yeah, but it isn't. You're right. it's definitely not a contest okay i've made the slack channel but we can't use it until september 1st okay uh i'm also going to archive dog count because we have uh we did it so good work on that good job everybody at the nissan all in clear out there's nothing more chill than financing an award winning nissan for just zero percent enjoy the soothing relaxation of zero stress zero worries, zero indecision.

We should try to schedule sausage talk for sometime early next week so we can get these ideas written down before we forget them or lose enthusiasm. I would love it if we could get a a website where there's just like a live count if people want to check there was a community made one for hot dogs

who was updating it I don't remember the user's name or the person's name but they had one and they reached up to us over Patreon to ask if we could forward our totals to them so they can have accurate number

there were more than 4,000 community hot dogs tracked using their websites So that's the thing that exists. I would love to talk to somebody out there in the world, maybe in the community, about designing some sort of a website that displays some sort of a visual timeline of all of our content

so that it's a little bit easier to find. I had to go back and find something the other day, and it was a little conflated the process to try to find this old video. And I don't know if there's anybody in the community that wants to lend their talents to that, but I would love to hire somebody or figure something out

where we could just have a repository that's easy to see or index or search all the disparate amounts of content that we've created. On Patreon, if it didn't happen in the last like 10 days, it's pretty difficult to get to.

We do have the collections tab, which makes it a lot easier. It helps. It helps. And that's eventually how I found what I was looking for. But yeah, it's still. It's a limit. I'm not complaining about pay.

It's a limitation of Patreon. I just, I'm not trying to complain about it. It is what it is. I just think it might be cool if we had like a website you could go to. Speaking of like prop auctions and you know we got the guillotine recently, I just got an email that I got outbid on an item

that I forgot I bid on two weeks ago. The auction is not live yet. We've talked about before, Jeff, you and I, about an estate auction is weird because you have the item and you know that you only have it because that person's dead and that's just not a great feeling necessarily.

Yeah, it's like everybody wanted me to buy stuff from the David Lynch estate. And it was like, I liked him too much to pour through a dead guy's things. Yep. If that makes sense. It felt weird to me. I completely agree with you on that. There is one coming up where I do not feel that way at all.

And it is the estate sale of Larry King. And one of the things that is up for auction is his Shrek 2 reading script. Wow. That's awesome. It has his lines highlighted. And it comes with like a post. I think and like something else I like a framed variety story about with his character on the front of it I forgot I'd bid on that it was very cheap I and I'm

glad I got outbid because they don't necessarily want it it was just the cheapest thing that I thought was stupid that was available to buy but I guess if people want a Shrek 2 reading script that was once owned by Larry King and go get it so Americans eat 50 billion burgers a year. Not Larry King. They have, I'm just reading this dumb website. They have 8 million gallons of mustard. We consume 8 million gallons of mustard.

I don't even know how you make mustard. Are you guys, they ever made mustard? It's a seed, and then you crush it up, right? Yeah. Ground it. I know that mustard is a seed. I've cooked with it before, but I've never turned that seed into a yellow sauce

that I put on top of a hamburger before. I don't know what the process is. I assume water's involved. I assume if you put it in one of those grinders and you got to crush it up. I bet there's more two it than that. Probably vinegar in there. I bet we probably is.

Now vinegar is, I'd have no idea where vinegar comes from. I wouldn't have the slightest idea. If somebody told me to make vinegar, how do I do that? I get water and then what? Maybe I'll get into being a, like I've already decided

I'm going to be the sack of burgers guy, which is really going to come in handy over the next year because this is already something Nick and I worked out where anytime I show up I just want to show up with a sack of burgers

be like anybody want a burger maybe I'll be a mustard maker and get into like artisan mustard making DIY mustard yeah like what if I get like develop like a really good mustard recipe and then it's fucking

because it's awesome can you plant mustard in your backyard yeah probably is it just like I never thought about like growing a mustard tree

it's like whenever I hear people growing like food stuff like that it's like oh yeah I get some rosemary in the back I've never heard everyone be like I gotta go get some mustard I'll be right back oh it's just like a it's just like a little flower it's like a nice looking little flower like if you told me that that's what you were growing it would be like oh that's fine

could you just have the petals on a dog do you think would you get the same like peppery flavor no I don't think the petals I don't think it's a Willy Wonka world where the petals taste like mustard I think we got it I think we got to give it a shot. I imagine they taste like petals.

Uh, okay. Maybe. Let's find out. Why don't, this is what you have to do. This is, this is the experiment. You have to blindfold Gavin, and then you have three different hot dogs, each with pedals on it, and he needs to be able to tell if he's having the mustard petals. Oh, that's good.

One's like roses. This is good. Oh, I'd be able to do that instantly. There's no way that you'd be able to tell which one was the mustard petals. All right mustard petal taste test Eric Right that's

All right Yeah I'm putting it on Are you gonna put Any other edible Flowers? Yeah They all have to be edible No we're not gonna poison you

It's different edible flowers So it could be a leaf or something Like a like a mint No but it could be mint It could be What's another basil Could be parsley Could be a tulip

Could be dill Could be tulip Could be rose It's a nice rose Rose petals? I like the idea if you're looking at rose petals on a hot dog

and thinking it would taste like ketchup. Could be a hot dog made entirely out of Turkish delight and the whole thing is upset up to get you to eat

Turkish delight. Wow. I don't know if I want to be blindfolded anymore. I think you can be a real cool guy with an inner lip

tattoo eating mustard flour on your hot dogs. Oh, you know would be cool. I got to learn how to make this mustard because sometimes mustard goes on deviled eggs, right?

Or in deviled eggs? And we're going to do that deviled egg eating competition where Gavin and Nick see who can eat the most deviled eggs that I was going to make all the deviled eggs. Maybe I'll make the mustard that goes in the deviled eggs and then make the deviled eggs. I don't want to get sick, though.

You're not going to get sick of it. I'm making good food, asshole. That sounds like I'm trying some first attempt mustard here. No, no, no, no, no. I'm going to write this down. Make mustard. Make mustard to go in, deviled egg off.

What if we just put in a bag, or in the bit barrel, we put in all the condiments. And whatever you pull out, you have to make that one from scratch. Oh. Ooh. And everyone has a different one. Ooh. I like that. Can you look it up, or do you have to try to ponder how you even make it?

I think you should be able to look it up. Yeah. Good. Because I'm still pondering vinegar here. I got no idea. I got no clue. I don't. I don't know that you can, I don't know that you can, like, make vinegar in the time we're, like, trying to make a video.

Yeah, I think you just use vinegar. I think vinegar is, like, a fermented fruit thing or whatever. Oh, fermentation. Yeah. That's probably the way it is. Yeah, because it's the, yeah. Yeah. What are we fermenting, though?

Onion? Is it like onion water? No, no. I think it's like, I think it's just like grapes and stuff. I think it's just free. It's grapes and stuff? I think, I think it's like, I think vinegar is just a, It's just a fermentation process.

From a grape? How many... I would never guess grapes get. They hogging everything. All right, here we go. They are. They're hogging everything, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Vinegar is primarily made of acetic acid and water

with the acidic acid being produced through fermentation of alcohol. The alcohol in turn comes from various sources like fruit, grain, or even industrial alcohol, depending on the type of vinegar. Yeah, because I think it's like a wine offshoot, I think. Oh. It's a two-step fermentation process. So you can take fruit through alcohol into vinegar? I guess so, yeah.

That's nuts. What happens after that? Because isn't that like they say, like when people, like when alcohol goes bad, it turns into vinegar? Yeah. You said that like you reach the end of the universe and learn that there's more. What's next? Yeah, like what happens if you leave vinegar for 25 years? I bet it gets, I bet it tastes really, really, really strong.

wrong. Yeah. NFL's gonna have to move to vinegar salt. You guys ever thought about doing like smelling salts before like some gaming stuff?

I've done considered it but they're insane. Yeah. We used to have in the army we used to fuck with people. What is it? Smelling salts?

It's like uh... Is it drugs? No, no, no, no. It's like a, it's like ammonia or something. Yeah, yeah. It's ammonia. Yeah.

Like concentrated. Oh, like cat piss? Uh, I don't think it's like cat piss. I just know it's like a really, really, really, really strong. It's like to smell so strong, it like wakes you up if you get like knocked out. And then people do it when it's time to hit like their max like PR stuff when like they're working out or they're about to go hit the field and they got to get all like amped up. And I thought about it. Uh, just going on like call of duty and trying to beat like that one level.

Maybe it's like what you need. Gavin's office is a large smelling salt. I have been pretty amped in here recently. They just banned them in the NFL for this season. Oh, did they really? I didn't know that. Yes. Out of concerns that players could use them to essentially get out of concussion protocol. Yes, yeah.

And then, so that means there's like plenty for us to buy. That's true. Yeah. Ample. Number one supplier now out. Why would you want to get out of concussion protocol? If you want to get in there Coach says you got to play baby

Got to play man You want to play more than You want to like die more Yes Yeah because every Every game you're not playing Your replacement is proving That they can do the job

That you just couldn't do That's right You're worried about losing your fucking career I think it's also just a mindset Of like I'll be fine Yeah Yeah Also CTE is something that happens

To other people not me Yeah Have you had a concussion Andrew? Or is your head made of the same stuff as your nose? I don't think so. I don't think I've had a concussion. What was interesting is when my mom was in the hospital for her ankle, one of the nurses was the sister of somebody I went to elementary school with,

and she recognized her, and they were talking. And she brought up me, and her response was, is that the kid that hurt his knee, which I thought was interesting. to know that that was my perception of elementary school. That was what I was known as, I guess. We're playing baseball using a lacrosse stick, like the pole part in the playground, and I hit a dinger.

I hit home run. I got real excited about it. And I went to sprint to what would have been first base, and I was right next to the wooden barrier between the gravel part of the playground and, like, the cement on the side, and I tripped, and I fell, and I went knee first into the cement

that had a bunch of those little gravel pieces that like parks have and it like shredded my knee in a way that didn't hurt that bad but looked really awful and like blood splattered everywhere and all the kids got freaked out and I got sent home

so that's my legacy I guess I'm the kid that has knee yeah I would say similarly my like worst injury to least pain ratio injury was on my knee that's crazy really interesting I've had so many concussions

that the last one I got a doctor told me that I had to stop getting concussions or I was going to die. Johnny Knoxville? Holy shit. He was like, you know, concussions are really bad for you, right? And how many of you?

And I was like, it was my fifth concussion and he was like, you've got to stop doing this. You're not going to live long. And I was like, oh, I'm not trying to. How did you get the fifth one? I was in the Army. And I was you already at five. What?

Yeah, I was in my 20s. I was in my 20s. I was like 22, maybe. Jeff? Yeah. I got hit by a baseball that knocked me out flat woke up in the emergency room

had a little bit of gray hair from that one fell off a half pipe on my head went over the handlebars on a bike once I think there's another one in there somewhere and then anyway the one that I the last time I got a concussion is maybe the worst I was pushing an AV cart in the army

and it was like so fucking heavy and I I like was like working it around a corner and I got kind of stuck so I went around the other side to pull and I like wrenched it free and pulled and so it's one of those things where you're like pulling a heavy cart

towards you and it pushes into you and as it was like pushing into me with the momentum I turned around and there was a stairwell and it was like the landing on the stairs like right above me so it was like right like the line

of where I guess began was right about my forehead height and it was just like under like if I had a duct I would have just gone under it and the cart pushed me my forehead into the stairs and I was fucking gone, throwing up, and just gone. That was rough.

Brutal. Fuck. Wow. Oh, my God. Holy shit. Yeah. So you've done really well in the last couple of decades. I haven't had a concussion in over 20 years. Yeah. You better start knocking on wood, bud. That's wild. Wow. I don't want to get any more. That's for sure.

No kidding. Well, we got to be gentle with you. From like 10 to 22, I was real rough on me. I've, yeah. So, like, that was like a 12, that was my 12 year concussion period, but I'm, I'm past that. I'm like, I'm floored. If you would have been like, oh, yeah, we were doing like immersion, it would have been like, oh, yeah, I wonder which one that was. And you were like, so I was 22.

Like, what the fuck? The only time I ever got hurt in my 22 year career at rooster teeth was on, does it do? Ah, yes. Oh, yeah. Oh, that's right. Oh, yeah. Poor Tyler staff. I know.

I felt so bad for him. For Tyler's staff. I was trying. I put my hand behind my back, and I was like, let's wrap up, let's keep filming. And they're like, why are you, what's going? What? And I was like, it's fine. We just keep filming.

I was like, trying to wrap it up. And I'm like, it's going to be fine. We're going to get through it. And they were like, absolutely not. And then you huffed some smelling salts and you kept going. Yeah. I've been having fun being at the office a lot recently. We've been doing a lot in there.

Yeah, man. Pinball machine moved. It's been great, man. It's a place rocks. Not by the front door anymore. No. I have found. I found an excuse to go every day this week,

and it has been just a delight. I'm going to have to probably come less because you've started going back to Achievement Hunter mode. We had a close call today. We had Andrew. We had a close call. We had an Achievement Hunter close call today.

Oh, man. I'm sorry. I stopped myself. I said all the sprinklers off. No. We don't have sprinklers. I had a coffee on my dad. desk, a little iced coffee that Eric kindly got me from a nearby.

And, uh, what's, why are you taking away? Gavin and I sit next to each other. I sit to his left. And I saw that coffee and I shit you not, Andrew. I saw that coffee on his desk and it was in front of his keyboard and the way he was sitting. And my hand reflexively bat, like I got into a backhand motion and I was reflexively about to, like, I wasn't even thinking. I was just an. autopilot mode, and I was about to whack it to see if I could hit the coffee into his keyboard and then all the way down into his lap. And I was like, what do you do? I saw my hand and I was like, what do you do? And I stopped myself. And I was like, no, don't. And then I told him what

I'd almost done. But it was real close, man. I, if I wasn't paying enough, if I wasn't paying attention, I would have done it. Maybe you're not a menace and it's just you have cat like reflexes. No, I think I'm a cat move. Just swiping a thing on the thing. I think I'm a menace. it's like there was a movie a couple of years I don't remember a horror movie where a guy got like a hand

he got it decapitated and he got his decapitated he got his arm cut off and he got like a new arm but the arm was evil from a serial killer and it would do stuff

and hurt people and he had no control over it I have like I have like a dickhead hand I just have like a hand that is a menace that I don't have any control over it belongs to you

when you were 20 but you've still got it. Yeah, I've got two 20-year-old hands in a 50-year-old's body. And I just, I don't know what to do about it. I forgot what it's like to be in the office, just like in your vicinity, but not necessarily working on something.

Like, I was under the, the other day, I was under the desk, trying to, like, we rewire some of the networking stuff just so we all have our own, like, full gigabit connection and I'm unplugging stuff. And then, it's like moving Ethernet cables around. And then suddenly, from above, because I'm under the desk.

All I hear is like, slam, slam, slam. It's like, nothing works, but, and I guess I don't unplugged your Xbox Jeff or something. And then you getting annoyed at that and slamming the table, then somehow like unplugged your HDMI from your mother. And you were just getting more and more annoyed, just smack in everything and breaking everything as it was just, it was like a cascading effect.

It went beyond my control. It was a full day of Jeff having tech problems. and they did the shit just kept rolling downhill and that meant some keyboards were getting slammed around on some desk you should have your space bar off which is great I think we've had that keyboard for a month and all you need to do is just wait for it to come for everything to come back on

I had to rewire like half your shit because you'd loosen it or I put the keyboards the space bar back on it's back on it works yeah I got real mad for a second I was just like all right chill out shit stops working in the middle of something suddenly stuff's not working and then I dropped my controller on the ground

why threw my controller on the ground or whatever and it made my monitor stop working I mean no stuff it was like a Rube Goldberg of shit oh man Gavin did you see that Rube Goldberg I said you the other day that video? Yeah that was great

oh man you make it sound like I'm some sort of an angry tyrant but it was all done in a playing loving way Oh, yeah, it was like tongue and cheek, but then you actually broke stuff for real that I had to fix, and you were genuinely annoyed. Well, yeah, because I broke stuff. But I was mad at myself, not you. Yeah, I guess I've never worked in the same office as you where I'm IT and tech support.

So it's a slightly different experience. It's fun, though. It's so much fun. I really am having a box. We need some new drinks, though. low-end drinks. Have we talking about the awesome trash can that we got at work? I don't think so.

No, I really, I don't think so. We got to release that video of Eric with the trash can on social. You do. It is very good. Instant classic. Instant classic. We, when we went to El Famoso for the hot dog Thursday that they had,

we were taken aback Eric and I because in their break room they had one of those trash cans with the swinging thank you door that you put the trash in that they have at fast food restaurants, like that they would have at Wendy's or McDonald's. And we were like, how the fuck did you guys get that? And Natalie was like, ah, we have a hookup or whatever. And we're like, could we get your hookup? And then it fell through. But we just bought one on a Granger or one of those like industrial

websites. And we finally put it together. And it is the coolest fucking thing in the world. It looks like a lot of fun. Our kitchen looks like a Burger King now. And if we wanted to put up that video on social tomorrow. Is that all right, Eric, or have we missed it? Oh, you can just tell me when you want it up. I can put together a thumbnail for you. Oh, man. Yep.

That's the best. Yeah, you can just tell me when you want it up, and then when it's about to go up, you can change your mind. That's up to you. I didn't change my mind. What do you mean? Okay.

What did I change? No, it's fine. Yeah, you just let me know when you want it up. Jeff, end the episode. Yeah, good. Whatever you want it up, you just say. Well, before regulation, check the calendar. It should be there.

Like, which days ahead of this one? Just have a look at the calendar, man. Any time you want to just, any time you have a question, just have a look at that calendar, dude. Check your most updated screenshot of a calendar. Yeah, just check out that calendar. You just let me know what day you want it up. We'll put it up. No problem.

I'm telling you whatever day you want, man. I tried to try to. Just keep going. Just keep fighting through it. All right. Well, before we, before regulation, the regulation company does. disintegrates in front of us all. This has been episode 66 of the Regulation Podcast.

We hope you liked it. I'll be honest with you. This one was in rehearsals for week. We did dress rehearsals. We did like four different read-throughs of the script. But I really feel like we nailed it this week. Hopefully you agreed with us. And we got to get to write in because we got a whole new script to come up with for 67.

We still in season one, a regulation era? Oh, no, I think we're in season two. Okay. I felt like it was still pretty season. season oneish. I mean, should we, do we vote? Did we not declare

at the end of the season? I thought we did, too. On the one year mark. Yeah, you're right. I think we did at the one year mark. Okay, so we're in season two. Yeah, but Gavin's got some decisions to make about it, so don't, don't worry.

He'll let us know later. Gavin, go ahead and get those notes to us on that decision we made four months ago. Now that it's done. Yeah, absolutely. Now's the time. Appreciate it. And, uh, oh yeah.
