Hello and welcome to another episode of the Regulation Podcast.
This is number 85.
My name is Jeff Ramsey with me.
As always, Nick Schwartz, Eric Madur, Andrew Panton, Gavin Free.
Hello.
Hello.
Would it be easier for a lemon to go in or out of your butt?
If you shove the lemon up your butt, I think always out.
Yeah, out probably.
I think in.
I think you're crazy.
I think in.
I think you have more control.
You're able to push.
I just don't trust the out.
Well, you could use your hands.
Yeah.
Exactly.
But out, you're relying on entirely on internal strength.
Your three anusis is Gavin's sense.
But your body pushes stuff out of your butt all day long, naturally.
It knows how to do it.
It's got sense memory.
But a lemon's gonna, it can't, oh, I surely can't do a lemon.
I feel like lemon has gripage.
I also worry that I won't be able to do it when I want to.
Like I agree eventually, Jeff, that will happen.
But.
Oh, I see.
It could take a while.
Yeah.
Also, you hear stories of people getting
things stuck in their butt all the time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I think if I get stuck out of your butt.
You just don't,
nobody goes to the hospital because they can't put
something in their butt.
They just give up at home, you know?
Doctor, doctor.
These lemons may get stuck in my butt.
Do something.
I really need to put this lemon in my butt,
but I can't.
get it in. It's stuck out.
Stuck out is such weird phrasing.
I'd be worried about if it got stuck halfway.
Everything I own is stuck out of my butt.
Yeah. Probably.
Oh, I say some of the food maybe.
Well, I mean, you gotta, but in order for it to get stuck out of your butt, you have to try to get it in.
You can't just say like, this is stuck out of my butt.
How do you know it's stuck out?
Yeah, you haven't even tried. It might go in effortlessly.
there's all kinds of stuff in your house right now you could easily put in your butt
that's right it's out right now not stuck yeah it's just out how fast would you have to throw a
lubed carrot to get it to go in oh i just don't think you could could you like a dot
that's interesting it feels straight on enough it would definitely go in
it's just the damage i'd be worried about the damage oh it's gonna it's gonna hurt a little bit
but you'll i think it's very smooth and looped so it's like been shamed
It's like been shaved down a little bit.
So does all the bumpy carrot ends?
That makes it just more aerodynamic.
That just makes it more dangerous.
I think that makes it better.
You want it to be as smooth and even as possible
when going in, I would think.
My worry is where it stops is really the concern.
And your butt?
No, I think it keeps going.
At the speed in which it would require it to enter.
So you're afraid it would come out your mouth.
Yeah, like I'm.
It's not going to reach the mouth, but it's going to penetrate.
Like, it's going to hit something somewhere, and that's what I'm worried about.
It's going to hit the back hole.
I don't think you're having, I don't think you're going to have to shoot it.
It's not like a CO2 pistol.
I don't think you're going to shoot it that hard.
Yeah, I think if you were, if you were lying down below a balcony with your knees, like, up by your ears,
I think that alone would let it go in.
Yeah, like that or even if you just had like a big rubber band on a contraption, you know,
and you could just like pull it back.
Yeah, it needs to be a controlled mechanism.
Because I was initially imagining it getting fired out of like a gun, like a carrot gun.
I think you could just drop it in.
No way.
From how far?
Three stories?
I think that's too far.
I think you're going to hurt yourself three stories.
What's terminal velocity of a carrot?
The only scenario in which I, like, could see this working.
And also, I wouldn't be worried about damage long term, would be sitting at the top of one of those
fair things or you hit the hammer and it goes up and you're trying to ring the bell.
Yeah.
Because I feel like that would be enough force to have entry, but also there's a limit to how far.
What if you put it at the top of a playground slide and then you were at the bottom and you
lose the slide up really well?
We can't do this at a playground.
Jeff, I think you'd be going to prison if you did that.
I mean, you get, you know, we take, we buy the slide from a third party.
We do it.
Buy the slide.
There's got to be a slide manufacturer company that sells slides.
No, I think we should try to buy the slide at the park.
Yeah, just take it with us.
Just wait around for them to see him upgrade in the park and be like,
what are you going to do with that slide over there?
You guys got plans on that slide?
Not even upgrading.
I think that's such a funny villainous move to buy the playground of the local area
and just strip it down so they just don't have a slide.
Just take the fun toys away.
Yeah, just slowly piece by piece, like overpay the city for you.
Those swings are mine now.
You don't got swings now.
For some reason, I just imagine Jeff walking around a playground offering kids money.
Just asking like how much for the slide.
No, no, no, don't imagine that.
Stop.
Let's stop.
Hey, son, I have this carrot, sir.
You need to come with us.
It starts as this amazing park with slides and swings.
They might want to help me with an experiment.
I'm a scientist.
Oh, Gavin, get your coat, get your coat.
I'm here with the slow-bow guy.
I don't want to be anywhere near this playground.
Andrew, why were you asking about the lemon in the butt?
I was just, it was Arkraders.
I was thinking about, because we talk about there's the safe space that you put it in your butt,
and lemons are one of the thing.
So it was a conversation that, uh, I,
I was having some friends.
I could definitely get the olives in my butt.
Olives, absolutely.
The apricot, I think, would just be mushy.
I don't think that works.
But lemons have the integrity.
And it seems split.
So I was curious what you guys thought.
I didn't expect to get a playgrounds,
but I do like the idea of buying out a playground.
I want a parent to see a playground on Google Earth or like on maps,
like this awesome playground.
And then they look up from their phone.
And it's just one of those things you can sit on
and go back and forth on,
like that's the only thing left.
Just one.
It's an empty playground,
but one.
No,
like the,
the like horse type thing
where you sit on it
and you like push back and forth.
Yeah,
like a rock and think.
If I was gonna make a playground
unfun by being an evil dude,
I wouldn't,
I wouldn't take a lot of the stuff away
as much as I would take something.
Like I would make a seesaw
just a sea.
You just have one side of it.
Figure out how to have fun with that,
you little asshole.
This feels,
I don't know how this was an applaud.
of a 90s
Nickelodeon movie
of like
the evil
playground
designer
speaking
to having fun
I created a game
because I was
inspired by Andrew
oh wow
okay
it's a really
interesting
easy little game
but I want to play
with you
sometime today
in the episode
if you don't mind
it's just like
a match game
kind of like
Andrew had this
really cool game
for guess who
called Guess Who. And I was just thinking about it. And then I was also thinking about recently,
not even recently. This was maybe a year ago. We were talking about which animal you would trust
to sell you a sub. And to me, I think it's a gorilla, right? The animal that comes to mind most
when we were talking about like octopus selling sushi. That got me thinking, what are the most
used mascots, like animals as mascots across sports and stuff? Because I drove by specs the other
day and they have like a fucking rabbit, like a, it makes no sense, but they have like a Bugs Bunny
at the liquor store. And that got me thinking like, oh yeah, like Oregon has ducks that are
essentially Donald Duck and there's like 4,000 different bulldogs in college football teams.
So I was trying to determine what animals have been used the most as mascots across all entertainment
properties. I wasn't able to narrow that down, but I was able to on mascot database.com,
which is a real thing.
I was able to look at a list of most named teams of all time,
which pretty much corresponds with animals.
And so I took the top five most named sports teams of all time and jumbled it up.
And I'm going to let you guys try to figure out what goes where.
Does that make sense?
Yeah.
Okay.
I have,
no, it doesn't, clearly doesn't for Gavin.
But that's okay.
So here I'll share the screen.
Okay.
And this is what we have.
This is all time.
This isn't current teams.
These are the top five most named sport teams of all times.
We have the Bulldogs, the Wildcats, the Tigers, the Eagles, and the Panthers.
You guys just have to tell me what goes where.
Okay.
Jeff is playing this game.
And I think he, like, he's excited that Bulldogs is on here.
Couldn't care less.
Wow.
Have you told your dog that?
I tell him that all the time.
Eagles. Eagles is one.
Eagles has to be one.
So you guys think Eagles is number one.
Let's just talk through some of these.
Okay.
Andrew says Eagles is not number one.
All right. Let's talk it through.
We got the Philadelphia Eagles.
Uh-huh.
What's another eagle?
Every high school.
every high school.
Okay, okay.
You know what?
As a non-American,
got it.
We're also going across all sports
across all time.
So it might be something
where like a panther isn't a big deal now
but 50 years ago,
everybody was Panthers
and you have to factor that in.
It's the Florida Panthers.
Yeah, but it's so it's all teams, all levels.
Yeah, what do you think the top two are?
Because I think it's probably Eagles and Wildcats.
I would have said Wildcats.
Yeah, Wildcats feels very top of this list.
interesting
yeah I wouldn't
you just sold me on eagles
okay cool
I would put eagles one
I got some wildcats for you too
do you guys want to lock eagles in as one
yeah sure
I feel good about that
yeah let's see
that's a match
that's a match boys
oh hell yeah
I don't know about wildcats too
you do or you don't
I don't feel good about it as two
I feel like tigers is more
You think tigers is two?
I would put tigers at four.
You'd put tigers at four?
Yeah, Bulldogs three.
I will say the nice part about this is I made this game like four hours ago and I don't remember what's what.
So it's new.
I completely have no idea from, I knew one.
I don't know two through five.
I think Panthers is probably five or four.
Okay.
I think five.
We can put Panthers at five.
I'm fine with that.
Do you guys want to go straight?
from one to five, go Panthers five,
knock it out, feeling good.
Cut off the top and the tail?
Oh, I'm sorry, that was incorrect.
Wow, wow. Okay.
Panthers is not number five. You have one strike.
You get three strikes you lose.
Oh, wow. Invented in this game.
Okay, well, you guys seem pretty confident in Wildcats.
Wildcats feels like two to me.
I agree.
Let's do it.
No way.
And now we're both equally in the strikes sound.
But now, but that's okay.
because now we go to get, right, well, thank you.
Now we go to a different tab.
Jeff, checking out, checking out some IQs.
What kind of, we're getting out of IQs we're dealing with over there, though?
We got other cool stuff going on over there at Puzzle.org?
What else we're clicking on, bud?
Nicholas, did you get bored?
Just checking.
Did you get bored with your own games?
No, no, no, no.
It's way worse than that.
I was looking at the answer key.
I was trying to look.
Yeah.
I was befuddled that we were just looking at you for tab
I couldn't take in any information.
I was just like I yeah I'm glad you didn't
because I was thinking to myself Wildcats
where was that? I should check I forgot
I forgot you guys got all right
Hey how about this how about this? You guys have two strikes I have one
that's fair
I'll give myself a strike yeah I deserve that
well I don't typically run these games
this is an Andrew thing well if me and Nick
are we both struck out and then
Andrew struck out also I think it's only fair for Gavin
that's true
Who's number two?
I mean, we have some data.
Okay.
Bulldogs is two.
Okay.
No, that's how we're out.
Three strikes and you are out.
Let's do Tigers too.
I think it's Tiger's two.
That is correct.
I think number three is Bulldogs.
You think so?
I think three is Bulldogs.
Okay.
Three is Bulldogs.
Four is Wildcats.
Or no, no, no.
Four is Panthers.
Yeah.
Four is Panthers.
Wow.
I knew you guys are too high on them wildcats.
Now that we've completed the game,
I can go over here and look and show you.
There were 1,8-32 teams named Eagles,
1478 tigers, 1,200 bulldogs,
1,200 panthers, and 1,100 wildcats across all history.
Look at 53.
That didn't even count the golden eagles.
That's true.
It doesn't even count the golden.
That's not even all the eagles.
Yeah.
Too many cowboys.
How about the, what's number 16?
Number 16 is the Vikings.
Okay, okay.
What's the bottom of the list?
What's the least?
Number 100 is the Maroons.
Oh, yeah, but that's 100.
Go to last, bud.
Yeah, can you get to the...
All the way to last.
Oh, it's just gonna be a bunch of ones.
The apex.
The apex.
It's a bunch of UFC fights happen.
Yeah.
The night watch.
That is the Colorado Apex,
which is an ultimate frisbee.
Ugh.
Oh, they get to go to Golden.
That's, they're drinking coors.
That's awesome.
They're having fun.
Is that how you go back?
When they score points, the mountains turn blue.
Wait, how did you do that?
Do you just right click and click on back?
Yeah, if I don't want to use my left hand.
What?
Entries your left hand.
What?
Like, I could go up here and go back, but it's easier just to go like that.
Hey, Jeff, don't worry.
I'm going to keep my mouth shut on this.
I have nothing to say about this.
Isn't that super fast?
I don't think I've ever done that before.
Whoa, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Don't click.
5-716
Disco-Turkeys
Who are the Disco-Turkeys?
What sport is that?
Southern Collegiate Baseball.
Wow.
Carolina Disco.
Whoa!
Look at a Lola.
It is
a John Travolta-esque
disco turkey.
Disco-Turkey's name
Hunter Wolfington, the head coach
for the 28th century.
All of these are fake names.
Hunter Wolfington.
It's Winston-Salempsil,
summer baseball team.
This go turkey.
But that's just camels.
I didn't understand any of this.
Shopping.
Founder territory.
All right.
Let's check it out.
The team store.
Wow.
This is like,
this is like the Rocket City
trash pandas of like
South Carolina or whatever.
That's a pretty cool shirt.
Zuki Taki logo team.
That's cool.
Do you got any popcorn buckets on here?
These are awesome.
Let's look. Let's look.
Nah.
No.
What about a coin?
No, no point.
Do they want some of ours?
How would you like me to go back, Eric?
I have a thing on the side of my mouse that I just, like I have a little click.
I have a magic mouse, I don't have that.
You have a what?
Magic mouse?
It's an apple mouse.
You can just like fling your finger, I think, but to go back.
I hate that.
You just whang it.
Oh, I don't like doing that.
Yeah, I hate that.
It's terrible.
Yeah, but what if I wanted you?
to do that.
Okay, show me how.
I think I had it disabled.
You just seem to be
mildly shoving the page.
Well, I think you've opened a new tab
going here, so there's no back to go to.
It's also possible.
Oh.
You've done the same thing there as well, yeah.
Try that one.
All right, try this one.
Give a shot.
I think I have it disabled.
I was looking up fourth wall today.
That's a show we should do.
You just load up somebody.
browser on
Discord,
you have to just go through
all their tabs
see what they have opened
I'm trying to figure out
who has more open tabs
Andrew or Jeff.
Oh,
that's a neck-and-neck
contest, I bet.
I have a lot,
though, I have two.
My email, regulation email,
I'm not,
the two calendars,
Slack,
then I have
our Reddit page,
our two YouTube channels,
NBA,
Boston Celtics.
You use the Slack browser?
Uh, yeah, yeah.
Oh, you do?
This Tampa house I have to do for this old house.
Yeah, that's fine.
Uh, Mark the Frog told me to look up the original Navy chair.
I haven't done it yet, but I have believed in this stuff.
A Fugazi live show I want to buy and then all my Twitch stuff.
Wow.
Cool.
All right, well, there you go.
That's my game.
Thank you.
Thank you for playing.
I got a fun fact.
Oh, you got a fun fact?
I got a fun fact about what is a disco turkey.
A disco turkey is what we call peacocks in the triad region of North Carolina.
Oh.
peacocks.
That makes sense.
Disco turkeys are the national bird of India
and in the south.
Huh.
No more fun facts on this.
It's just stuff like, do I have to pay to park?
The answer's no.
Well, that's nice.
That was a great game, Jeff.
Thank you for putting that together.
Great game.
Disco turkeys.
I can't believe we discovered the disco turkeys off of that.
But that's like, that's minor league baseball, right?
It is.
Yeah.
The one that I think of all the time is the, is a real team.
This is the Rocket City Trash Pandas.
That is, that's a real one.
And then the, uh, I've been to one of those games.
What?
Really?
Yeah, isn't it in Huntsville?
Yeah.
Yeah, I've been there.
Oh, that's awesome.
Gavin has season tickets to the trash.
Yeah, no kidding.
And then, uh, the other one that I really like are the, this is no longer a team.
but the Staten Island Pizza Rats.
Oh, that's pretty cool, too.
Yeah, that's great.
AG1 is the daily health drink
that combines your multivitamin,
pre-and-probiotics superfoods
and antioxidants into one simple green scoop.
It's one of the easiest things you can do
to support your body every day.
I actually have been taking it in the mornings
about, I don't know, maybe an hour after I wake up,
and it genuinely feels like a great way to start my day.
I also, I think even more importantly, I've been taking the AGZ at night to go to bed.
About 90 minutes or so before I think I'm going to go to sleep, I mix it up.
And then hopefully I timed it right because at that 90 minutes, whether I'm ready to or not, I get sleepy.
It makes going to bed so cozy.
And I think this time of year it's more important than ever to be proactive about supporting your immune health,
especially if you're going to be doing any traveling, like I'm going to go into family gatherings, et cetera.
I know I feel a little more confident knowing that I've given my immune system,
a little boost before I head out into the wilds.

Speaking of discovering new things,
are you guys on cheese TikTok yet?
No.
I don't mean by that.
Because maybe?
Fucking, I don't know why, how I got into it,
because I don't really like cheese, you know, that much.
but I got into this like cheese monger TikTok
where these dudes will like throw down a giant wheel of cheese
and then tell you why it's important
and it's like a thousand years old and then they cut it open
and they give out slices to people.
It's the most engrossing thing I've ever watched
and I don't want to try any of the cheese.
Couldn't care less,
but something about watching those dudes
cut the cheese open and talk about, you know,
how special the cows are
on the side of the mountain
in Sri Lanka where it came from is so engrossing.
I want to be one of those guys so badly
because I feel like that also exists in coffee.
Like there are all these different avenues
in which there is the expertise and knowledge
of these different things and how they taste different
and why they're the way they are
and I just don't want to consume any of it.
But with the cheese, I'm like,
maybe I become a bit of a cheese guy
because I like the idea of knowing these things.
but this guy's the best right here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've definitely come across this cheese monger thing.
Anyway, highly recommend cheese TikTok if you find your way to it.
I'd actually like people to recommend other types of talks that are similar in the food,
or just not even talks, but just like subjects of food in which you can deep dive in the same way.
Because I would love to have one that I care about.
There are currently no foods that I'm aware of that you can have this type of,
discourse with. Right. Like you want a pizza monger. Yeah. I would love that. Yeah. What about a dog munga?
You know what? I had the other day my first dog since we stopped the count.
Delicious. So good. And I don't want to revisit it. But being so dog heavy for that that full year and then taking a break for a few months, it was like bumping into an old friend. It was maybe the best hot dog I've had.
It was so good.
Like your dog buds were reawoken.
Oh, they were reawoken, and it just,
it was so delicious,
and it was just a basic chain restaurant hot dog.
There was nothing special about it.
I've had it countless times,
but it just felt different.
Andrew,
I couldn't agree with you more, man.
I have been, since we're hot,
we're hamburger focused,
I've been embracing the hamburgers in a big way,
you know?
And trying to be true to the whole spirit
of the thing, but I have hot dogs keep catching my eye out of the, like in the periphery
out of the core of my eye. And they look, I haven't had one yet since I think the first,
I had one like right after we stopped. Yeah. But I haven't had one since we've been on
hamburgers, but they're looking so fucking delicious and delectable and tasty right now.
And I got to thinking about a chili cheese dog the other day. And it almost hurt how badly I
wanted it. I think you should have one and I'm curious to know if it's like me where it's the
greatest thing you've had in a long time and I have no desire to revisit it. It was very odd.
Like it was so good but I just, I'm not, I need to wait a few more months. I think to get that
hot dog high in the same way I had it before. That's what it is too. It's a hot dog high.
So it's maybe like meeting someone you went to school with and like having a real good catch up,
but you don't want to see them next week as well. Exactly. Yeah. You got what you needed from
that experience and then some time can pass. Yeah, it was like a complete experience. And if you
have it again too soon, it'll lessen that experience. Yeah, because then they just become part of
your rotation of people you see. And it's no longer special. If I don't see them again for
eight months, then I bump into them again. And you know, I'll probably even enjoy that one more than
the last time, which I'm excited about. That sounds even better. How do you feel, Gavin? Are you
excited to have a hot dog? Well, you were telling me this on text the other day.
and how phenomenal this hot dog was.
And I think I replied,
I could happily never eat a hot dog again
for the rest of my life.
I just can't believe it.
Well, what was your dog count at?
You were like five, right?
Five or six?
All right.
Well, that's no need to be insulting.
Oh, was it actually five or six?
You might be right.
I think it was.
I think it was five or six.
I wasn't trying to take a dig at you.
You didn't eat a lot of hot dogs.
It was similar to your Pye account.
Yeah.
Yeah, they just don't do anything for me.
interesting
I feel
I feel like that
I'm eating base food
is there a base food
that you get excited about
is that not what you want
like you specifically
is that not like the thing
you fucking strive for
what are you saying
no I get what you
like it more if it was a cube
no
I don't want the
the freaking food cube
I keep telling you
I'm so mad about it
I don't want the food cube
I keep saying it
I get what you mean Gavin
it's like there's nothing special about it
it is a base food but I enjoy base foods
I'm for me
I can get excited about a base food
what do you think the most base food is
hamburger is up there
a sandwich
yeah maybe like a one ingredient sandwich
I think peanut butter and jelly sandwich for me is probably
that's a great base food yeah
Maybe like a chicken soup or something.
If we were going to do a count, Gavin,
that you would feel you would have the highest numbers of
at the end of, because we've done hot dogs, we've done burgers.
What would that food be?
Ooh.
I probably eat more like chicken meals.
Is there a promo code you want to put in right now?
Do some promotion for this podcast?
No.
It's not an ad, rude.
I mean, if they're sponsoring this episode, sure.
Yeah, right.
It's code slow-mo.
We all know.
I like this man is like, it's not an ad read.
And I just ask, what's the thing he consumes the most?
And he states the brand and the type of meal.
You know earlier how like when you and I were talking about hot dogs?
And I was like, man, I love a Hebrew national hot dog.
No, my point is that.
You've already given them the promo at the point in which I'm saying, do you have a code?
That's where it would have benefited us.
You cut it off at the point in which we would benefit from your promo.
Well, just make it, Nick, make it a bleep meal.
My favorite McDonald's event, the bleep meal.
I get all those figures.
So it would just be chicken, and I would be fine with that.
I'm also like a big
I'm a big soup guy
if I'm in a hurry
like a tomato soup or something
That's so funny
You listed the food I eat the most
And then a thing I never eat at all
So it would be
I'm either fighting for first with you
On this list or I'm not on the board
So wait
So you just
Specifically that flavor or you just never go for a soup
Never soup
What's your like cozy dog shit day outside meal?
You know what?
Kind of scratches that itchurches for me
Like a butter chicken is the most soup-adjacent thing
I think I enjoy
Factor butter chicken
Yeah, factor
They don't ship to Canada or else
I'm sure it's a great product
No, but like it's far as soups go
It's like the butter, like something being drenched
In like a sauce type thing
It would be butter chicken for me
Interesting
I just don't like soup
I probably haven't had a good one
I feel like all of my soup experience
is like stuff out of a cardboard box
historically
I've never been to a restaurant
and had a soup
sometimes there's like a soup course
yeah
you've never ordered courses
yeah
you've never been to a place with like a star
an appetizer
yeah I guess like I've been to places
where they just give you bread rolls
when you show up
does that count
So you've never ordered an appetizer?
Well, no, I've ordered.
Like, is soup an appetizer?
No, but an appetizer is a course.
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah, I guess, okay.
Well, then, yeah, I guess I have.
But when I think of courses, I think of, like,
you're buying, like, a three-course meal or whatever.
But if you ordered an appetizer, a main, and a dessert,
that is a three-course meal.
But nobody would call it that.
What?
Yeah, because it would be,
Because it would be four, you would get the check and go home.
So it's a classic...
That's a great final course.
I stand by it to this day.
Grab and go, baby.
I see what you're saying.
You're not wrong.
I am technically, I guess, making my own courses,
but I've just never thought about it in those terms.
To me...
What are the...
I'm just getting once.
I'm getting individuals of each thing.
Does that make sense?
To me, a course, if I'm getting a course.
Yeah.
Okay.
So you know like when you play golf and there's like nine holes or there's 18 in a course,
you're going to experience all those things and you're doing that up front.
In my mind, it's the same for eating where if I'm buying courses,
I am investing in an experience that is preset and I'm having different layers of things
and they're connected in some way.
That's a meal.
I just don't.
I've never viewed it that way.
If I'm ordering like an appetizer,
it's like I'm just getting this appetizer.
There's no connectivity.
We've done a draft about this.
Yeah.
And in my mind, when we did that draft,
this is like you're paying up front for this experience.
Like, it's covering all of them.
Wait, can we go back and find Andrew's picks now
and look at them knowing this knowledge?
I think I stated it in the draft
that this is like you pay up front
because I had like a sea land and air meal
and then went to space.
Like it was, I themed it
because I think of courses as being an experience
that is interconnected in some way.
So you did a full meal draft?
Yeah.
Okay.
So Andrews, Andrews, four courses.
Yeah.
First.
Ficccia.
Yep.
Second.
Yeah.
Bacon barbecue.
Bacon barbecue.
He wrapped prawn.
Yep, that's the sea.
Yeah.
Third, chicken parm with twice-baked potato and vegetable medley.
We're laying.
That's an a land animal.
And then Gavin, do you remember what his fourth course was?
Absolutely don't remember of it.
Andrew?
Space cake.
It was a space cake.
We're going up.
He did go to space.
I was, it was because I really wanted facacia as then.
I was on a real kick at that time.
So if you went to a restaurant and ordered the Ola separately,
you wouldn't consider that courses.
But if you paid up front for that, it would be courses?
If somebody said I had a three-course meal,
I would never assume they meant I ordered an appetizer.
I then picked a main of my choice.
And then I picked the dessert of my choice.
You just described the three-course meal?
But we just did that.
That's what we did.
We just did it.
That's what we did.
No, but in my, and once again,
I'm not saying this is right.
This is just how I've always interpreted it.
A course meal is like you pay up front
and all them are determined
and you're getting all of them.
Where I don't necessarily know
when I go to the restaurant that I'm gonna do that.
But if I'm getting four courses,
then I know I'm getting four courses.
Hmm.
It's like a preset thing as opposed to me just picking.
Jeff, any thoughts on any of this?
No
Not in this such
Because when I hear
Course meal
I think that's like a really fancy
Like experience thing
I would never
Valuate any
Restaurant order as a
Multiple course meal
Although it is
I would say any restaurant that has
Like a soup course or a salad course
Or whatever
It's going to be
a pricey steak restaurant
Interesting
I think also as a non-soup person,
this is probably just like a thing
I don't venture in.
I'm not much of an appetizer guy either.
I don't want to wait into supporting Andrew territory here,
but I guess when I think of courses,
I think of a prefix menu typically.
Interesting.
All right.
And I'm not even saying I'm right.
I'm not arguing this point.
I just have never thought about it in those terms.
I'm almost certainly in the minority here on this thought.
But I think it is a thing where it's,
I'm not always getting appetizers.
really excited if they just give me some bread
before the meal, that's always great.
Me too. And I'm not a dessert
person. So I guess
I'm typically only getting a one-course meal
which I don't think is a...
Can you have a one-course meal?
Sure. Well, yeah. Really?
Yeah. One thing. Okay.
I don't think you really refer to it as a course
though. You just, it's just a meal.
Yeah. I mean, I'm kind of on the same page with you. It's like
if someone's talking about the courses,
it probably is a fancy place.
either fancy place or there's more than one.
I feel like course implies at least two.
A one course meal would be a hilarious thing to advertise on your menu.
It's just a dish.
Is a dish in a course the same thing?
Because those are both restaurant terms.
Are all courses dishes but not every dish is a course?
You could pick a dish and a side and that would still be the same course.
You know the most excited I've ever been about options is I went to chilies when I went to Hawaii when I was a kid.
And they had a chicken strip meal because we don't have chilies here.
And you got to have corn on the cob and fries.
You got two sides.
I was so pumped about it.
That's a thing you remember?
Yeah.
Oh, I was very excited about it.
Is that the thing you remember the most about Hawaii?
No, I remember I spent a lot of time in the arcade in Hawaii and I had a lot of fun with
the arcade.
The arcade and Chili's were my real standouts.
Also, I got a fish hook in the ear.
That was the...
What?
You were really burying the lead, my man.
Yeah.
It was...
We were staying at this hotel, and they had a, like, a kids program,
and so I was hanging out with this kid's thing.
And on the last day, they took us fishing.
And so it's just a bunch of kids with fishing rods walking around,
and I took one to the ear.
somebody's hook hit me
and it was bad time. That's the worst.
Did he weigh you off to?
I don't think I was tall enough to be even considered
capable.
There's no point.
Too small.
The minimum requirement.
Yeah, they put me in.
I've only ever caught one fish in my life and it didn't fit the requirements
and I cried when they threw it back into the sea.
Oh.
I retired.
I retired on top.
top of my game. I've also only caught one, one fish.
Do you get to keep it?
No, it was, the hook, the hook got all stuck through its face and I was really struggling to
get it out and then the eye was moving and I was just freaked out and I had to give it to someone.
That's so gross. Yeah, it put me off ever catching another fish.
So it wasn't even a one course meal. I will say, I think fishing is more fun than catching fish.
Just like sitting and, yeah, I agree with that.
absolutely.
Set on a pier somewhere
just fucking or in a canoe is great.
Fish adjacent.
Yeah, fish adjacent.
Hey, speaking to being fish adjacent,
I realized the other day it's December
and it's not our,
not necessarily our thing, it was the achievement of a thing,
but we did keep it alive that fish and jamboree.
This would be the time to do it,
and obviously we're not going to do it before January,
but I think we may have done the fish and jamboree
in January last year too.
Yeah.
I was wondering if there was any appetite to do it.
If we were going to do it, I was thinking,
what if we tried to kill sharks in GTA?
Yeah!
Oh, hell yeah.
Like go fishing for sharks and whales
or whatever sea creatures are in GTA
because I think they're in there now in multiplayer.
Are they?
I think that's fun.
I don't think I've ever done that either,
so I think that's a fun idea.
Yeah, single player, I crashed the little sub
into a dolphin, I think.
It's about as close as I've coming.
I just assume that if there's like I got mauled by a cougar the other day in multiplayer
so I assume I should be able to get mauled by a shark just as easily.
Maybe that's something we can load up and fuck around with over the end of the year.
Yeah, on the on the GTA doomsday replays video that came out,
Andrew's little intro is him getting molded by some sort of cat.
Cougar? A chinkugeter?
Yeah.
Got in my mix.
it has been so fun
we did the mixed animals draft
and seeing the incredible artistry
of our community
take those concepts
and elevate them
has been so exciting
there's still posts
of people like
doing more detailed designs
of what we described
and every time I see one
I'm just so blown away
everybody who's made one of those posts
thank you so much
they've been so much fun to look at
so cool
yeah seeing your creativity
off of our stupidity is really
pretty awesome to experience.
A complete elevation.
It's fun seeing talented people take
dumb, bad ideas and make them cool.
Yeah, but I was scrolling back through,
I was trying to find an old photo the other day
and I was scrolled back through my camera roll
and I guess at some point I'd saved
like 50 back-to-back fan arts of
the deer made of wind
that we were talking about in Minecraft called the Tornado.
And all of those interpretations were so funny.
I just went back and looked through all of them.
That's incredible.
The tornado is a great name for a tornado deer.
I will say also, I wanted to bring this up quickly.
We're deep in Advent content at this point.
Oh, yeah.
It's probably over when this came out.
When does this come out?
The last day.
Today is the last day.
Merry Christmas Eve, everybody.
Merry Christmas Eve.
I saw a lot of people.
that got really excited for the Earthshaker art.
So I just wanted to shout out Tobin Lee,
who is who I commissioned to do it.
He's made so much art for us in the past.
He's done all our Rattie boy shirts.
He used to do RT stuff with us.
Two of them.
Amazing artist.
Gavin, you familiar with those shirts?
Tobin is genuinely one of the coolest
and most talented people we've ever worked for sure.
He's fantastic.
He used to do those hyper-complicated,
like RTX map posters, you know,
where he'd make it,
everything was like a fun house
and there'd be like a million little Easter eggs
and things.
Yeah, great.
Yeah.
So talented.
He did such a good job.
There are people that thought I commissioned
the original artist of the pinball art to do it.
He knocked it out of the park.
Luckily, he'd been, it was his job to draw me
for a couple of years there, so.
Kind of locked in.
Yeah, he's locked in.
That was, by the way, Andrew, I know I thanked you a million times personally, but just one of the coolest and most thoughtful gifts I could have ever imagined receiving and nothing I give you will come close to it.
No, it's not about that.
The fucking, like, just grand slam of a gift you gave me, man.
I cannot thank you.
I feel like I'm an annoying gift receiver because it genuinely like doesn't matter to me, but I get so much joy out of trying.
to find things for other people.
So it's like annoying where somebody tries to return the favor and it's like, I don't
know, whatever, I don't really care.
Anything.
It's fine.
Not in a way of like I'm dismissive.
I'm so appreciative of any gift that anyone would give me.
But it's like as far as what do I really want, it's like, whatever works, anything is
an unbelievably thoughtful gesture.
You, uh, I will say this.
I failed on a gift that I worked on for a couple months, which is you told me in a previous
podcast that you can't get a deep dish pizza to.
Canada. And I took that as a personal challenge.
It's, you're right. You're 100% right.
It doesn't work. I've tried a million services. I've tried a million companies.
And like, they do not want those pizzas in your country, man.
It's restrictive.
Why?
What?
It's, uh, I think probably a shipping rule. It's the same where there are like protections
for dairy farmers in Canada. So it's tough to get like butter from other countries here.
it's a whole thing
because that would be a thing
talking about cheese
as an interest
like I could get deep
in the butter world
somebody could
convince me
that these cows
eating this grass
in this environment
I could go down
that rabbit hole
so easily
can this episode
be called
deep in the butter world
deep in the butter world
I know we sound like
lunatics
but if you watch
a TikTok from the
Beverly Hills cheese shop
you will be a convert
I fucking promise you
and it's the perfect
amount of time
that content. Like, I don't, if they made that a TV show that was 30 minutes long.
Oh, no, yeah, it's like 45 seconds to a minute and 10 seconds.
You get everything you need out of it, in and out.
It would be interesting to list all the foods and the amount of time you want to spend
listening about them. Oh.
Like, your determining cheese is like 45 to a minute, maybe.
What do you think, Gavin, what food would you listen to the longest?
Oh, man. What food do I know shit all about?
Churros?
Boy, I was not
Whoa, that made Gavin
that made my head spin
I could do five minutes of chura
I think the most interested
I've ever
heard Gavin be about food
when I've talked to him about food
I'm blanking his name
a Seamus
I think it's Seamus Blackley
made bread
using like tools
and the way that they made the original
bread, like Egyptian-style bread.
Like they went
into the pottery and were able to cultivate
like stuff from it
to like make an accurate representation
and then went through the process
of what they would have went through
so you could taste what the first bread tasted like.
You haven't seemed pretty pretty into that.
Yeah.
Those YouTube channels are really cool.
That's how that's, I don't know if it's the same one,
but I got the lemonade recipe from one of those
like historical.
Oh, okay.
Uh, food YouTube.
channels. Those are pretty cool. You know what? That is my cheese. I get really excited. It's the only
thing I think I like about summer is companies put out their new lemonade's. I get really into that.
I get very excited to try all the lemonade. Maybe that's a, maybe that's a name for an episode.
Lemonades is my cheese. Have you polished off all those creolas yet? Oh yeah. Yeah. All gone.
Long gone. Long gone. What was the best color? Oh, I really like the green apple. I'm a big
fan of the green apple they just added I was doing this last night and I thought
Gavin would never do this this would be fucking insane to Gavin I like I did think of
me when it comes to it like I do not having enjoyment about something well no no no it's
just the specifics and you're gonna be on my you're gonna be like yeah you're right
they added a new grocery store to like Uber eats and I like just seeing like
what stock places have that way it's just like an easy way to use the UI I
I looked at every single drink that they listed.
It was like over a thousand drinks,
and I just spent like 15 minutes scrolling every drink to evaluate.
And be like, oh, is this new?
Have I tried this?
I'm just kind of building a cart that I'm not necessarily that I even order
just like so I could look at and be like, oh, what are they saying they have that I haven't tried before?
Like Dream Drink Cut?
Yeah, I guess Dream Drink Kurt, but just even, it's just like mundane things.
It's like, oh, I haven't tried that lemonade.
Never heard of that brand.
Let's put that in the mix.
So, you know, there has to be, there has to be a person on earth who has tried, alive right now,
who has tried the most drinks currently.
Do you think that person knows they're that person?
I think so, yeah.
Like, that's an intentional thing.
I think so.
Like, you remember when you and I interviewed that dude who played 50 Cent Blood on the Sand that night,
and he was the number one player in the world and he had no clue?
Yeah, but I, I mean, he knew.
You don't know, you know.
could have been lying. He could have been full of shit.
Yeah, I think he just didn't want to own.
Everybody's got to be like, maybe not everybody, but a lot of people are probably the number
one person in something and have no clue.
It would be interesting if there was somebody who had a palette that was viewed as like,
oh, this person knows what will be hot in the soda market or whatever.
Because I assume they taste a bunch of different recipes.
Like a soda soothsayer.
Yeah.
Like this Coca-Cola has.
somebody that has just like insane taste buds in the sense of whatever they deem to be
their featured flavor is the best option.
There's like an,
there's like an anna winture for soda.
There's some guy at Coke who has the most trusted buds.
Absolutely.
That'd be such a cool job to it to tell people.
Like, oh, if I like it, Coke makes it.
Yeah, yeah, I'm pretty big deal.
If I, if I, you familiar with the, you feel like with the,
Cherry Coke by any chance
He has me.
I said yes to that.
I liked it.
There's a homeless guy in the street
that was like, I'm the guy
that approved new Pepsi.
You know what you've never,
you know what you've never heard of?
Peach Coke, you want to know why?
I said no.
I greenlit off that vending machine.
Oh man.
What a lame movie that would be.
Because it's always like
boxers who like
they can't fight anymore
because of the damage
the idea of like a taste bud savant who ruins his buds.
Yeah.
He had like one extreme curry and he lost his, he lost the shot.
He can only deal in spice now and he lost all his other stuff.
Andrew, you, speaking of movies,
you mentioned to me that you're watching all of the movies from the summer movie.
I'm trying to, yeah, because we need to record that recap of the most recent summer movie league we did.
How far into it?
Like, how many do you have left to go?
probably like 10ish I would say
I'm watching like two or three movies
whenever I can do you have a
I don't want to encroach upon that content
because I imagine we'll be recording it soon but do you have a clear favorite
like a so far fight or flight is definitely the most
really your favorite okay yeah I think so
I think so it's pretty good
thank you for the recommendation to watch that film by the
of course every bit as good as you said it would be
I caught myself giggling while watching it a couple times
yeah it's uh there is a joke that they pay off which is so unnecessary to pay off uh in a fight scene
that uh wonderful it's filled with moments like that yeah it's the type of movie where a character
reveals they have a certain type of face tattoo and that character recognizes them as being part of like
a dangerous group because of the tattooing and it's i'm so into that type of ridiculous
You love that trope?
Yeah, just the premise of like, okay, this person clearly is like part of some known group that has tattooing that represents their thing.
It's great.
That's such a fun movie.
I just watched the most recent Mission Impossible and that was not a fun movie.
Is that the final one, the Dead Reckoning 2 or whatever?
What they claim to be the final one, but like it doesn't end in a way that feels like it's final.
I need to see it, I guess.
I watched the one before it.
Oh, that was okay.
It is like, it's almost a three-hour movie,
and I want to say two hours of that is them explaining
what it is that they need to do and why they need to do it.
And I feel like all the set up in the other movie
is kind of not even that important somehow.
No.
The thing I was most excited about that they set up in the first movie
is such an afterthought for them dealing with it.
I thought it was going to be a really cool moment.
It's actually a weird problem for a Mission Impossible movie
where they made the act of them doing a certain thing
so precarious and so dangerous
that I didn't get to just enjoy the space
that I was excited to see more of for what they set up.
It was like, I wish that things didn't go wrong
and he didn't have to do all this crazy stunt work
and that he could just go in and search this thing.
But yeah, it's been fun.
I'm excited to talk about those movies when we record that content.
Yeah, I'm excited to do that and wrap that up.
Also, now that the year is almost up, everybody don't forget,
you got to get your blindsides in.
You don't want to lose them.
Yeah, Gavin.
How are the, you saving them blindsides?
Yeah.
Oh, I got so stressed out thinking about what my blindside might be.
You just have a box of bullets.
Box of bullets.
A box of bullets.
Well, you know, we use the immunity bullets.
I feel like a blindside bullet could be a thing.
And I don't think you've ever shot one.
So you just, you're building the ammo.
You're getting ready.
I feel like it's around this time of year that I start,
start warming up the part of my body that tries to figure out if Nick's wearing a mask.
Because it's back on the table soon.
Very soon.
Are we doing that again?
We're going to do it quarterly?
Like, what's the, do we have a plan?
What do we think?
We do it yearly though, don't we?
Okay, so what I mean is like, if we're doing it, then yeah, we're doing it.
And then are we doing the quarter system, which is I was hoping something you remember just off the rip where quarterly people are supposed to pay attention to if he was wearing the mask more than everyone else.
Yep.
Yep, yep, yep.
Okay.
I cook you four.
How many ratty boy shirts do we got?
We got two of them.
Yeah, Gavin doesn't even know what that is.
Don't even worry about it.
Should we also at some point wrap up the Nostradamus thing too?
Do we do that early next year?
Yeah, early next year.
I mean, we have to wait until at least January 1st.
Because anything can happen on December 31st.
True.
That's true.
A dog may speak.
Should we back to back the results and then a new Nostradamus?
Yeah, absolutely.
Oh, wow.
I like it.
We have to be new one.
You can be right again.
This can be awesome.
I need you guys plan on getting divorced in like the next two weeks.
Nah.
Not planning on it.
I'm glad.
You all beat the odds.
I don't think you are, man.
I don't think you are.
I'm really excited for all of you.
That's awesome.
It doesn't sound that way.
No, I'm pumped.
Okay.
I think we should do a compilation of Eric's thanks man's of the year.
And I mean it every time.
Yeah, it's pretty obvious you meet it.
Yeah, I don't think that was ever in question.
I want to give a little thanks to a very kind member of the community called,
on Reddit he's called Blade.
And he did a post called My Guide for Gavin on Saving His Old Pikachu.
And it was like the most in-depth set of instructions ever.
And I'm absolutely going to follow it.
So I thought that was very nice of that person.
But there are no Pikachu updates.
It's still as far as we know, the same thing.
No, I haven't. All I've done is backed him up. He's now safe forever on my computer, and I can now change the battery and the cartridge and stuff.
Oh, that's great. Move on to phase two. Congratulations. That's awesome. Thank you.
That is phenomenal. What a year. What a great year for regulation. It's been. I've enjoyed it.
Yeah. We still have a couple more podcasts before the end of the year, right?
Today's December 24th, so we have one more. Okay. 24th. We know one more. Yep. One more big,
blow out. We'll Gavin have his
blindsides played?
I don't think so.
We'll have to tune in to find out.
Podcasts, podcast,
podcast, regulation, episode 86.
Podcast regulation,
86 episode.
Were you guys ever into
like TEE magazines?
No. What the fuck?
What does that mean?
So we're closing out
2025, weird style, got it.
Well, I remember going into like
an off license of stuff, buying a little chalky or something, like a twirl or something on the way home from school.
And you see all like, you see like nuts and loaded.
Sure.
And I, I just assumed like, oh, one day I'll be old enough to read them and buy them.
And now I'm, I've realized I never did.
What age is that actually for?
Is it for?
I can't imagine being 38 and reading one.
Like, who, who's meant to do that?
The pre-internet age?
I don't think anybody was reading anything.
But that was like actual
There's like actual
A lot of stuff in there
I never tried buying one
Would I be prevented from buying one
Is there an age restriction on those things?
He'd have to be 18 I think
Okay
Yeah I think it would be 18
But I also think they wouldn't sell one
To a 38 year old
I mean they just tell you no
Too old man
Bro bro
Bro do you have a phone
It's just a product that's been replaced
by the internet obviously
Because there's so many
better articles on the internet
to read
did they ever
actually shut them down
there?
Because like loaded
must still be a thing.
Well,
I think they still exist.
I'm sure.
Well,
I don't know.
Playboy doesn't exist
in a physical form anymore,
right?
Didn't they get rid of that?
Oh, I don't know.
No clue.
It's not.
I thought he was typing
where did magazine go?
But to answer your question,
I mean,
I was,
a 12-year-old kid, so I was definitely into those magazines, but they're not something you bought.
It's something that somebody's older brother let you have that you hid in a bag in the woods.
You found in a bag in the woods.
Yeah, and then you passed it on to the next kid who wanted a bag in the woods.
Yeah, I guess it stopped, loaded, ended in March 2015. Wow. Now an online thing.
Maybe if you'd supported them, more, they'd still be around.
I just don't think I... I think I turned like 18, 20, and I just assumed I had so much life left to
buy one of those and then I just completely missed it.
I think a lot of the two is like not being able to do it makes it more enticing.
Like I wanted to be old enough to buy cigarettes.
I never wanted to buy a cigarette and I never did.
Once I was 18 and it was like, hey, you can buy cigarettes and I was like, okay, cool, gross.
No thanks.
You know, I want to try it.
I've never done that.
Buy cigarettes?
Yeah.
What kind would you get?
B&H.
Benson and Hedges.
I fucking knew it.
Why?
I know, it's like the cheap, like your school kids buy them.
Kevin, I think you should take an Uber ride to the nearest 7-Eleven and go in and buy an adult magazine and a pack of cigarettes.
Yeah, hell yeah.
I'm going to go down the off-eat.
In the car.
In the car on the way there.
And condoms.
Yeah, I'm going to buy all the stuff.
And when I'm in there, I'm going to check how much a Fredo bar costs.
Because when I was a kid, it was 10 p.
But I don't think it is anymore.
Get some rhino horn.
I can assure you it isn't.
What the fuck is a hoary goat?
Fredda, it's a kilo frog.
It's a frog chocolate.
How much is a Fredo in 2025?
Here you go.
Here's Fredo.
20p.
Oh, between 30 and 45, I'm seeing.
Oh, wow.
35p for, I remember when they were 10.
It's fucked up, man.
I don't feel to be old enough to say I remember when they were blank, Gavin.
Feels good.
Yeah.
I mean, you've had some luck if you could say that, right?
For sure.
The only part I would say is lucky about that experience.
We should probably wrap up this episode so that way we can go buy cigarettes.
Nick, is there a kind of cigarette you're going to buy?
Yeah.
Which one?
Menthal.
That was my time, baby.
Oh, cool.
Well, can I interest you then in the camel crush, which is just a regular cigarette,
but then you can crush the little menthol thing and halfway through you can make it menthol?
Oh, it's so satisfying.
Wait, what?
So gross.
What?
Whoa.
There's like a mint in it?
Yeah,
yeah, pretty much.
It's,
there's like a little,
there's like a little ball in it.
And then so you can smoke it normal style.
And then you pop the ball and you can smoke it menthol style.
You know,
you can,
you can inhale whatever's in there.
I would assume someone just like taking a cyanide cat,
so if I saw someone do that.
Do you think if we,
if we sit sat there and watched Gavin smoke one entire cigarette you would grow up?
Yes.
I don't want to do that.
I don't want to do it either.
I've never smoked a cigarette.
I've never smoked a whole cigarette in my life.
Yeah.
I had some of a cigarette at a bowling alley once.
What's between us?
We have to smoke one.
Well, here's the thing.
It would be one puff for Gavin,
one puff for Eric,
one puff for Jeff,
and the rest of the cigarette for Nick.
Nick chumps.
And then like a six-month wee-laps for Nick.
Yeah.
So many cigarettes for Nick.
I hate that I'm legitimately too intimidated to buy cigarettes.
Go buy him!
What do you mean?
Yeah, go buy him for next.
He's scared.
You're scared of the guy at the convenience store.
Buy these camels, sir.
Gavin's 15 years older than the guy who's selling them to him.
He doesn't give a shit.
I have to be looking over my shoulder to make sure my mom did walk in.
at what age
at what age do you stop
worrying about getting in trouble
I don't think I'm not there yet
because I'm constantly afraid of getting in trouble
like I'm eight
and I'm fucking closer to a hundred than one at this point
you know who's gonna make you be in trouble
I don't know my wife my mom
quote the man
like you got Aaron
Eric, I'm always scared of Eric.
Eric's terrifying.
There's a lot of people that I could get in trouble with.
Yeah.
In trouble.
In trouble is so crazy.
That's like if you rode your bike over to my house to knock on my door to ask if I wanted to play.
I'd be scared I'd get in trouble with Barbara for knocking on the door too loud or be like showing up unannounced.
I would never do that because I'd be too scared.
You think I wouldn't want to ride my bike over to Gavin's house all the time?
I'm never going to knock on the door.
I'm scared of Meg.
I don't want to get in trouble.
I get that.
You're scared of your bingo, buddy?
I could easily
I'm out of
dude I'm fucking done with bingo
I will want
I'm fucking
I got out
I got out
I've seen
I've seen this
fucking song and dance
before
I haven't been
in months
and you'll be back
this week
no they already
went this week
and I didn't go with him
he'll go
he'll go soon
he'll go soon
did you get sick
of Emily winning
no but
Emily did win
this week again
oh shit
yeah she's won
like four times
in the last
eight times
they've gone
or something
I think it's getting
I think it's wearing
real thin to Vanessa and
Meg. Does she
win the sloppy Joe's when you play? Typically?
Oh man, we haven't... Yeah, usually.
She's a winner. Emily's usually a winner. Yeah.
She wins a lot of stuff.
That's great.
Good for Emily.
Skilled bingo player. Everyone says it.
It is true. But no,
I'm out of bingo. Thank you.
My bingo days were over. I'll probably go to bingo
like three times next year. I enjoy.
a bingo. I just, I get my fix, much like Andrew with the hot dog, and then I'm good for a while.
I want to build the desire up naturally again. That's very fair. So who wants Q1 of Nick's
Mosque? Oh, that's a big responsibility. Nick will do it.
Nick will keep it open here. Well, here's the thing. Let's take a week to think on it. So when we do
our last episode of the year, we'll know going into January who feels like they can take up
the mantle, the responsibility of Q1
to figure out this monkey man.
We could give it to the wheel.
The wheel, I think is the way to do it.
We could give it to the wheel.
That feels like a wheel thing.
All I've had an idea.
But are you, now here's the thing, Gavin.
Are you prepared for it to land on you?
Yeah.
Are you prepared for it to land on second wheel?
Could land on second wheel.
Could land on coin.
Why would it land on coin?
Coin could be on the wheel.
What would coin do?
Well, you decide after we've been on the wheel.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Q1 or Q4?
Coin one or coin two or coin 5,000.
There could be a thing on the wheel that just says convert the wheel to coins
and you have to get out that many coins.
And that's what you can look forward to at the next episode of the regulation podcast.
Incredible.
Wow.
Christ.
Oh, man.
Oh, thank you for listening.
listening to another episode of the regulation podcast.
There's only one more to be listened to in 2025.
Well, that's not true.
You can listen to all of them in 2025,
but one new one new one on the way before we kick off the new year.
What are we going to talk?
We have one episode left to talk about everything we didn't get to talk about yet in 2025.
I'm sure you guys have tons of stuff that you want to get to.
And you can get to it too by being here next Wednesday.
And then for every day after that, because once it's out, it's out forever.
and listen to it and like it
and we'll see you next time.
Bye.
Bye.
