Starting point is 00:00:00 It's time to put your pedal to the metal. From the twisted minds behind Deadpool and Zombieland, an executive producers, Will Arnett and Anthony Mackie comes the new Peacock original series, Twisted Metal, a high-oxane action comedy based on the classic video game series. Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a motormouth outsider who must deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. If he can survive the drive, also starring Stephanie Beatriz, Samoa Joe, Nev Campbell, Will Arnett, and Thomas Hayden Church.

Bernie and Jeff Fenn, Justin, Jack and Joel and different men, but I'm leaving here there and this is the Mr. T5 cast, no one likes that, but I'm leaving no Keri Gahia, for the love of those tank parts cast, fuck that thing. Hey, it's the Rooster T5 cast. Yeah, this is my first time on the Rooster Teeth Podcast. I'm very excited. Yeah, we got Bernie Burns. Hey, Marshall.
Starting point is 00:01:28 I'm a veteran on the Rooster Teeth Podcast. You're a veteran. Long time before I first saw him. I was gonna hum over the top of the Rooster Teeth show. And, uh, Kerry. Hello there, everybody. How's everyone doing? So did we explain why we changed the name
Starting point is 00:01:39 to the Rooster Teeth Podcast? No, branding. Awesome branding. Yeah. Fucking unified message and stuff. There was a little bit of a backlash Awesome braiding. Yeah. Okay, unified message and stuff. There was a little bit of a backlash from the change. Yeah. You know, I think so. Yeah. I saw I saw backlash. Yeah, I saw. I saw. But I don't know why they're bitching. It's good. It's the exact same content. You wait, man. Wait, you don't know why they're bitching.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Or that's something on the internet. It's changed and people complained about it and you don't understand why that happened. Whatever. It's. It's the exact same thing. A rose-bain near the name was smelted to sweet baby. Come on, it's fucking Shakespeare, man. That's the real truth. Okay. I see my brand is not here. I wouldn't like to have quizzed him to see if that was Shakespeare.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Speaking of Brandon, I want to get this started with a conversation I had with Brandon yesterday. And luckily, Kerry's here to back me up because Kerry was sitting there when it happened. I love you, Brandon. So, we were talking about the iPhone, you know, the iPhone Ns iPhone 4 and S yesterday. And Brandon was talking about how he was hiking one time. And he wasn't worried about getting lost because he had his iPhone and he had Google Maps on it. And he said he became concerned because what if he lost signal, then he wouldn't have Google Maps. But then he was like, but I have the compass and that still works right and I said so far so good
Starting point is 00:02:48 I know yeah, so far so good and I said how does the compass on the iPhone work? I said if the radio's disabled you don't get a signal does the compass to work? You got to stop saying compass by the end Compass how do you say compass? Okay, does the compass to work and? And he said yeah, it still works and I didn't believe him so I checked I enabled airplane mode on my phone and the compass still work just fine I was like that's weird I you know I don't know how it works and if you had your compass you can tell which way Chicago is right okay so I I ran and said there must be a magnet in there and I said I don't think there's a magnet because
Starting point is 00:03:19 it would fuck with the cell phone so then then he goes, well, you know, how Magnus worked anyway, right? Oh, here we go. And I was like, yeah, yeah, he was, you know, it's, I got a match just elevating a little bit now. Like, no, I'm sorry. Like knowing the brand is coming with a scientific solution. Delicious, delicious man. Yeah, there's a giant mineral deposit in Canada that attracts all the magnets in the world. And that's why they all point to it. And go, yep, he goes, yeah, it's right into the South Pole in Canada is where this time in New York is like yep yep that's why I'll magnet this point north and I said excuse me
Starting point is 00:03:52 I had to leave you just like look like you're face like the second he said that like your entire face changed so like I have to not laugh right now so I went down to my mouth just to start typing this down and then like two seconds later he came rushing in behind me he's like I just want to my office to start typing this down and then like two seconds later he came rushing in behind me He's like I just want to clarify something He was I know that the South Pole's in Antarctica. I'm talking about the magnetic South Pole That's And I said yeah, I knew the mineral deposit. Yeah, I'll top of the mineral deposit
Starting point is 00:04:17 That's why I'll Magnus point to it and I go yeah, and he goes you give me a quizzical look like a Brandon We're green here. He was okay. Okay. I just get nervous sometimes working here I said I totally agree with you Magnets point north because there's a giant mineral deposit in Canada that's where the South Pole is the magnetic magnetic South Pole. Yeah, okay You kind of give me a quizzical look and walk down. It's right under the Southern lights Man, I that guy's a fucking scientist You know you didn't touch a little bit on something which is carry this is a skill that we have developed over decades of being assholes giving each other shit.
Starting point is 00:04:52 And that is when someone starts talking out of their ass everyone else is like, uh-huh, go ahead. It's like, I'm following, please continue. I know where's not a single break where we just even react or tell them what the fuck are you talking about? Yeah, we're gonna let you go all the way to the end of it when this conversation happened Carey was sitting behind Brandon and I could see Carey turn and look at me and give me a what the fuck look I was like no learn padworn learn It's gonna sit here and be like yeah, just like hi fur your brow a little bit and like this is an interesting It's going at first to couldn't understand why you weren't like going off on him and I was like oh
Starting point is 00:05:25 I couldn't understand why you weren't, like going off on them and I was like, oh, well I can't. It's like, just too much. It's too much to stay. It's like, let's save this. So I started a text file on my computer called Conversations with Brandon, and I'm just going to type down things. Brandon says there and save it for notes. And you put that on Twitter
Starting point is 00:05:39 and that you were, you had this text file now on your computer. And then later on, I was replying to you about, oh, the error travel. So I found, up, don't get to it in a second, but I tweeted something that I found in an airport in Orlando that Gus would love. And in the middle of the conversation going back and forth with some people who follow us on Twitter and Gus, also Brandon pops up in the conversation, he goes, bring it on Gus. And I said, I wonder if Brandon is defending himself by replying to completely the wrong thread. And then Brandon replied about an hour later,
Starting point is 00:06:08 I've made a terrible mistake. So the cover up is always better than the initial explanation too, right? It's like watching someone try to cover desperately. My wife did something like that one time where it was like, you know, when you're married, you have date night, which is pathetic. Actually, she should say when you're married with kids, because gosh, you probably don't have date night.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Every night's date night, baby. Every night is date night. But when you have kids, you have date night where you go out together and we went out somewhere and then on the way home as married couples do, we're on the way home from date nights. We're like, hey, we really need to stop and get some things. So why don't we just stop at Walmart? On the way home from date marbles. They take big, yeah. Of course.
Starting point is 00:06:46 So we for whiz low price. We're dressed up to go out and we stop at Walmart. Anyway, it's like 11.30 at night, maybe close to midnight and we had been out, you know, nice dinner and drinking. So we're in line and we're getting checked out at Walmart. And my wife is just sitting there and she's like looking around and she's got the kind of thousand yards there. And she says, around and she's got the kind of a thousand yard stare and she says She's you know what she's because can you imagine like if if if Things like really change and all of a sudden I had to get a job at Walmart like what do you have to be like get a job at Walmart and work at Walmart and I go
Starting point is 00:07:18 The cashier's like She's saying that right in front of the cashier and she looks up the cashier is like Checking out stuff then my wife goes into cover up mode Like we're already all like five sentences ahead of her like she doesn't realize she's like oh fuck I said this horrible thing now. She's gonna try to cover it up So then she goes into like oh my god, she's like, but it'd be fun You know it like work at Walmart it be great Talking and I will do that to my wife sometimes like I'll get up my I found a go
Starting point is 00:07:56 Uh-huh, and I'll be tapping and it's my notepad and I have up and I go and I hold it up to her and I just have written I don't know for this go covering up. You just gotta walk away. I got going to to use my gage lane. At that point, this is no cover enough. You just got to walk away. I got him going to the car. I did it at the Jules and Tenshi. It was like, uh huh. Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap, tap. Hey, Joe, look at this.
Starting point is 00:08:11 It's like, shut the fuck up. We should get business cards made. They just say stop talking. They have them. Of you do? I read a story online of somebody who had stop talking business cards. Yeah, and someone's going, hey, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Yeah. We need a handsick, like a baseball manager, you know, like, I don't know what it's the lips. We just punch them in the mouth. But yeah, we cover up is usually better than the than the initial full paw. And it's usually the person thinks they're being really slick. And they're like, oh, like, I can cover this. And then they just embarrass a shit out of everybody. When I was in college, I was at a
Starting point is 00:08:43 blockbuster. You guys remember those? Oh, yeah, remember those? What? when I was in college I was at a block bus for you guys remember those oh yeah remember those what and I was telling the guy who was working there you know one second let's figure this out carry have you ever had a blockbuster membership I was a Hollywood video yeah okay so you did have a video store cards and how old are you I'm 20 okay good for you have a state congratulations and we were making small talk and I was telling him yeah you know I'm getting a film degree, but I also, I'm getting a marketing degree too, because I don't want to just be stupid
Starting point is 00:09:08 and just get a film degree, because that's pointless. And the guy's like, yeah, I mean, I got a film degree, and I'm working on some side projects right now and stuff, and I just kind of realized, this guy's working at Blockbuster because he has just a film degree. I don't know, I'm kind of realized like oh this guy's working a blockbuster because he has just a film degree and You know, I don't know I'm one of those guys that like when I realize that I've said something stupid I just kind of like admit defeat I guess like there's no I don't go for the cover up. I'm just like well
Starting point is 00:09:36 Yeah, I'm sorry. I said that. Yeah Thanks for my movie. I'll see you later. Did you say that to the guy? Yeah, I was like, uh, yeah Sorry man. Yeah, no, did you say to the guy? Yeah, I was like, uh, yeah, uh, sorry man, yeah. No, did you say to the guy you work a blockbuster because you have a film degree? Did I say that to him? No, yeah, what was the thing you said that upset him? No, not, he was pertinent because he said
Starting point is 00:09:54 he doesn't want to be dumb and just get a film degree. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The guy who just had a film degree. Oh, I see, I was working a blockbuster. I miss you in his faux pas, I don't know. Okay, my apologies. So you said, I said it martial. I don't want to, I don't want to fuck my life up.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Yeah, did it worry you when you were getting a film degree and you met somebody who had the same degree as you working at blockbuster? No, it's it's bizarre. I'm like the one percent of people that have a business degree and a creative degree But I use my creative degree and not my business degree. Okay So no, I would I mean I wouldn't do wouldn't do, I mean, I don't know. I covered all my bases, I guess, I went, you know, business school and all that stuff. I'm gonna level with you. Marketing is not that great at a degree. It's made up, it's 100% made up. It's like business philosophy.
Starting point is 00:10:35 Yeah, yeah. And like, you look around in your marketing classes and it's like all these, like, 85% like pretty sorority girls that just want to do events and stuff. I'm paying attention. That sounds like a great idea. And yeah, I mean, you just kind of realize that it holds no, like, it's all made up. Like all of marketing is just kind of made up. I went and spoke at a university this weekend. I went and spoke at full sale down in Orlando, Florida.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Talk about researches and just, you know, talk to some of the students there. Because it's a school that originally started as a Audio recording school for musicians. Oh, is that how it started? Yeah for live shows and the good Previous that thing's been around since 79 Wow. Yeah, and then they went in naturally just kind of evolved into Then television the film production and then with the digital revolution multimedia or I mean what is it called now? You know just you know digital video essentially? Multimedia. Is it still new media? I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:11:27 There you go. Is it still new media? How about the newest media? How about that? And so it was, it was, anyway, it was pretty interesting to talk to people who, you know, are going to go out and try to get jobs with degrees and then, you know, they're going through like a traditional education to then go out and get a job and entertain it. And as part of my speech, I kind of had to cover up the fact
Starting point is 00:11:49 of no one really here, there's very few people here that have degrees in entertainment. Like I don't, I own the company in my degrees in computer science. And I'm a little upset, I don't like talking about this. Your degree in film, what do you have? What is your official degree? A Bachelor of Science in Radiotelology. Of course. So you have a Bachelor of Science in film. What do you have? What is your official degree? A Bachelor of Science in
Starting point is 00:12:05 Radio Television Film. Of course. So you have a Bachelor of Science in film. Yes. I had to take foreign language classes for film but not for business. I see. Well that makes sense. Well yeah, there's a lot of foreign films. There are a few foreign countries have businesses. Well, they're very few. But the thing that always upsets me is Matt is the other guy who has a Bachelor of Science in film and I have a Bachelor of Arts in computer science Well, you already have science in that line computer science So you can't be bachelor of science computer science have you redundant? Yeah, you know what fucking paces me off most of all about that What's that is do you know what might my diploma or Says on it. No, what No, it's not my diploma.
Starting point is 00:12:47 What's goes up on the wall? The poem. See, I'm hanging the shadows in the trash. Yeah. Do you know what my... Or as I say it, dipole me. Yeah, I'm doing what you're compost. My university of Texas at Austin, diploma says on it.
Starting point is 00:13:01 What? Bachelor of Arts. That's it though. It just says Bachelor of Arts. I could have gotten that in fucking anything It doesn't it doesn't it doesn't say computer science on it then when you get a Bachelor of Arts They don't put what your field of study is what a big fuck you Aren't people for you though? It's just like oh, you know, it's the arts on the batch your bachelor of science It gives your specialization that's film or whatever my diploma is still in a envelope somewhere my parents
Starting point is 00:13:25 I'm minus two minis in the top drawer of my filing cabinet like underneath all the files because it's too big to like go sideways in there Actually, they just like run out of ink while they were printing it like why no, they just don't give a fuck Welcome to the University of Texas. We're 50,000 people graduate a year. Yeah, they don't accept visa I try to pay like every time I try to pay stuff. I'm like, here's my card. Like, no, we don't accept VISA. We don't accept, like, VISA, right? We're talking about the same company here, VISA. VISA. Big set, big set, master card?
Starting point is 00:13:52 Yeah. They're like Sam's club. They only take discover. They have a special one. That's even weirder. I mean, it's so weird. Yeah. You think of those two beat, like VISA and master card being like ubiquitous in the same
Starting point is 00:14:01 thing pretty much? You know what discover was? And I might be talking out of my ass here. I should get Brandon to tell him this, but uh-huh. Yeah. Go ahead. Discover the discover card is Sears. Did you know that? Really?
Starting point is 00:14:14 Yeah. Then Novus, it came out of Sears. And I'm going to have to look this up. I know. I know it's like Discover Novus. I didn't realize that that came from Sears. I believe it might have been the original Sears card. Back when credit cards were, you got them from the department stores.
Starting point is 00:14:26 You can get them like from these big people, you know, these central banks that are now too big to fail. Although I did get a kick ass new credit card. I got a new American Airlines card. Which brings me back to my Orlando story that I should talk about. I was traveling to go to full sale and on the way back from Orlando, the greatest thing
Starting point is 00:14:48 about Orlando is they have a direct flight everywhere, obviously, because everybody wants to go to Disney. It's a huge destination, so it's a weird, smaller town, but still has this awesome airport. It's a serious airport. I mean, you can go anywhere. You can probably go to like Japan, direct from Orlando. It's probably a ten flight a day. But in the airport, they have
Starting point is 00:15:06 this really cool thing. I have at this point in my life, I have two and a half frequent flyer miles. Two and a half. Two and a half. You've flown a lot. Two and a half million. Under the point I already mentioned the other zero. Two and a half. You know, I think I only have two and a half. I'm a... You got on the plane, got off. Yeah. You can't sit there. No, you're sorry. I'm a little... So I have two and a half million frequent flyer miles. And there's a lot of things to come with that like you can get upgrades and things like that. They made me what's called platinum for life.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Which you honorary captain, you just go in there and fly the plane. I can fly one point a year. I got a ton of four million for that. Well, for two and a half million, you can take off once a year, when you get to five million, they let you land once per year.
Starting point is 00:15:40 The landing is a hard part. Yeah, exactly. That's why you need more miles to do it. But the coolest thing by far though that comes with that perk is that I get to skip the security line. I still have to go to security, but I don't have to wait in the line. I get to go do what's called the first class line or in some airports they have a first class line. Right. A priority access line. They don't have that in Orlando though, which I was kind of like, you know, being one of the big travelers. Do you see this card?
Starting point is 00:16:08 But they do have a line that is called Gus and you're going to like this. They have the expert travelers line. And I said to the person in the TSA agent who is very friendly and helpful, great hands. I asked this person, I said, what is the expert traveler? How do I qualify as an expert traveler to say, you can't be traveling with children, which in the Orlando Airport is a big deal. You can't be traveling with children. And it's for business people and she looks at me, Gus, and
Starting point is 00:16:35 she says this direct quote, and people who understand the rules of air travel. And I said, I have a friend who would kiss you if you heard you say that. Oh my God. I wish there was that line everywhere at every airport. And so it was all like dudes with laptop cases. And it was like they were, I mean, you've never seen a faster line.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Wow. They were like, they didn't even put us through the scanner, the body scanner, anything like that. So here's my question, okay. When you go to fly, you know, you always wanna get there like an hour and a half earlier or whatever, you know, just in case there's long lines
Starting point is 00:17:04 or whatever. But if you show up, I've done this a couple times not on purpose You show up like 15 minutes before the plane and you like tell the people who's giving you a ticket Like my plane leaves in 15 minutes. Yeah, like oh come with me run run and they just like zip you through everything Why not just always do this this is when we first started traveling? This is with Gus Gus would book us I we'd have these these tickets that Gus was in charge of booking all of our airfare and I just always do that. This is when we first started traveling, this is with Gus. Gus would book us. We'd have these tickets that Gus was in charge of booking all of our airfare,
Starting point is 00:17:29 and we would say be flying to, I don't know, Comic-Con, San Diego. And a problem with living in Austin is, there's no direct flights anywhere. Yeah, sucks. Except Dallas, we can fly direct to Dallas, and that's it. But then we usually connect through Dallas to everywhere else.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Well, a plane ride to San Diego was like seven hours, And then I look at my ticket and I realize I got a three hour layover in Dallas. I'm like, God damn, that sucks. There's planes that go to Austin every hour, Austin to Dallas. And I found out, come to find out, Gus, because he hadn't traveled very much, was intentionally booking us three and a half hour layover so that we could make our next plane. I'm like, fuck that. Get to give us 20 minutes. That's not true. That is absolutely true. That's true, that never happened. I really do not know that.
Starting point is 00:18:07 I never travel by that point, but that point I had already traveled extensively. Why did you do it then? Why never did that? You're gonna get this yet? This is a false memory. That's not true. Somebody get, somebody get Jeff or Matt
Starting point is 00:18:17 because you definitely did that. No, Brenda wouldn't know. Who did you get from? You would intentionally do that. No. And I was the guy who I also love. I don't think you could stand in the expert line with that kind of a
Starting point is 00:18:27 three hour they see you're through our layer and they get the fuck you're doing. But the thing that I always do is if you don't check any bags, which first of all what a bricky move to check a bag. Yeah, if you don't check a bag
Starting point is 00:18:42 and you now print your boarding pass when you're at home and you now print your boarding pass when you're at home and you take it with you dude you can show up at the airport 20 minutes before your flight and you're fine and get on like a fucking bus. Do they have the the scanners here for security where you can do the mobile boarding pass at the security checkpoint. They do now. Austin's a little behind on everything. Okay, they have it now though. Remember the rumor that we couldn't get the the X-ray machine? Yeah, the backscatter machine. It's called Remember the rumor that we couldn't get the X-ray machine? Yeah, the backscatter machine.
Starting point is 00:19:07 It's called backscatter. We couldn't get it because the floors were too weak, and it would collapse the airport. I think that's some bullshit architect like fuck that machine. We're not putting that in there. Yeah, supposedly they had to hire a structural engineer to come out and look at the floor and figure out if they could do it or not. Dude, it's a fucking airport. That thing's less than three years old.
Starting point is 00:19:22 They don't know the capabilities of the airport. They just built the Dan thing. It's 12 years old now. Did you know that is it really crazy? It's still a good airport. Yeah, Austin's got a good airport. I like that the Austin airport Like all your food choices are local businesses You're not like a McDonald's like, you know the schlatskies the mantra pizza the Salt Lake Amy's there's some bodies in there I did there's a moddies. Yeah, that was awesome. For the stockers. They also have the anti-ans pretzels.
Starting point is 00:19:49 They have that here? Yeah, we have it. It's a, it's, we always go right. Oh, it's on the other side. Yeah. It's on the Southwest side of the airport. But that's a, that's a business that I'm pretty sure only exists in airports.
Starting point is 00:19:59 And malls. And malls. Yeah, I guess so. Which is kind of weird when you think about it. I wonder if we're gonna get a hot topic in our airport anytime soon I mean go we got like an arcade Awesome needs an arcade That'd be a great way to kill time. Mm-hmm. It also has a really cool arcade
Starting point is 00:20:18 Up north and you can look it up online. It's called pinballs with a Z Mm-hmm In fact, we were gonna hold One of the nighttime events for RTX at pinballs with a Z. In fact, we were gonna hold one of the nighttime events for RTX at pinballs. We actually reserved the place until Gus fucked up and sold double the amount of tickets. And we couldn't go into pinballs because the fire marshal, fire code won't let us have that many people in there. If we had people sitting on other people's shoulders, we would have been okay. And everybody wears a trench coat? Yeah, it would have been fine.
Starting point is 00:20:41 You guys been to Kung Fu saloon? No, it's it's just like you guys been to Barcai in New York I have an apartment. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's the same thing. It's really cool. What's cool? I had one of the funniest conversations ever with a fucking douchebag New Yorker at Barcai because This was this was awesome. Remember when Jason moved whoucker, he moved to New York for a little while? Uh-huh. OK, so he was in the process, he knew he was moving to New York. There was an event that they had for red versus blue at the Lincoln Center in New York.
Starting point is 00:21:13 And they showed us, and they showed some other machinima stuff. And I went back and looked at some recordings of that event. I didn't realize that one of the guys that was working on machinima and showed a piece at that Lincoln Center event was Dave Frank. Oh, really? Yeah, that was really on Machinima and showed a piece at that Lincoln Center event was they Frank or really? Yeah, that was really weird. He did something with Paul Marino, huh? Whose Paul is the guy that we love. He's a he's a kind of the Global authority of Machinima and runs the Machinima Academy and now he's like lead cinematics guy over on the
Starting point is 00:21:40 Barwer. Yeah, the old Republic MMO that's coming out out so and that's a lot of fucking cinematics in that game Anyway, so we go out with some of these other filmmakers like these New York artists and the after party was at Barcai And we met this guy who is definitely legitimate filmmaker and I'm not gonna name him him by name but He was having a conversation with Jason and we were talking about yeah, this cool. We don't have anything this bar. K thing is like a cool concept and he's like It's okay because you know it's a pretty touristy place You know the kind of thing where we take people when we're doing stuff with people from out of town Hey, and I was like oh, yeah
Starting point is 00:22:17 That's being pretty upfront and he goes yeah, you know, you know when New Yorkers are we just do like a New Yorker event We go to other bars and and it's basically goes what bars and he goes well you guys are from New Yorkers, we just do like a New Yorker event. We go to other bars and And Jason goes what bars and he goes oh he goes from New York So I shouldn't really tell you and Jason goes just he goes well actually I'm moving to New York It's all be here in a couple of months and the guy like looks at Jason and he looks him up and down he goes I'll tell you when you move here What's the point I'll tell you when you move here. What the fuck? It was unbelievably douchey. Unbelievable douchey. And in some of those things we were just like,
Starting point is 00:22:52 we looked at each other for like four or five seconds and then just used turn and just walk and everybody walked away. It's like this conversation is over. Wow, that guy was too cool. You got to hang out with him. It was pretty cool dude. You're so lucky. And the best part about it was he ended up in Austin like a year later. He was directing a film in Austin.
Starting point is 00:23:08 I mean, by the sea. And that was like he's like, so where's some good place to hang out in Austin? Like, you know, you really haven't been here long. I'm a legend. Let you know if you move here. Just go to the airport and just local restaurants there. We have a McDonald's. That's cool. I just want to do one of the think I really do love about Austin though is there's tons of just local
Starting point is 00:23:30 chains almost like. One of my favorite places to go and awesome we never talk about it's Thundercloud. I love that place. What's wrong with Thundercloud? Okay I'm gonna guess what your problem is there's two businesses in Austin. There's Thundercloud subs and there's Amy's ice cream and I don't know who they hire from but they must use the same contract temporary agency because all they employ are dirty hippies with tons of piercings and tattoos and dreads usually which I have no problem with except when you order sandwich you want it in the next I don't know ten minutes twenty minutes so he's that your problem yeah that's
Starting point is 00:24:04 my problem I just hate their fucking jingle And that is that is bad deal like the little loss of change I'll take the thunder cloud jingle over the misty mr. Daddy's jingle any day the week though Mr. Gatty's is a pizza place here. Yeah, I'll give you that. Oh my god, but that fucking phone number They get these pizza commercial though helps me Oh my God, that fucking phone number they use. The Gatties Pizza commercial, though, helps me remember what the yellow cab phone number is. What?
Starting point is 00:24:30 Because they're, the numbers are flipped. Then you just flipped the nine in the two in the, in there. When you're really drunk and you need a call of taxi, it's super helpful. Is this pizza? I need pizza or cab. Do you have one of those?
Starting point is 00:24:44 It is, it is fucking crazy when you analyze how memory works. It just shows your brain is just faking it, right? I mean, the way you remember stuff is so non-linear. It's this convoluted way that it makes Twain your memory. And if you accidentally sit down and say, I'm just going to remember this number for what it is. You can't do it. You can't. You have come up with some random like to trick your brain to retain information There was I watched a hair and old growing up. I love that show. Yeah, it's awesome
Starting point is 00:25:12 And there was an episode where it was like in order to like The I don't remember which kid it was but in order for him to like do get on his test He would like make up brimes and like little songs like including all this like historical facts or whatever. It's just bizarre that like you know it's true it's like you can know every word to an entire album and and and still like fail all your tests because you just can't remember like those facts but you can remember all the words like it's just crazy. It is it's nuts. I was teaching when my kid was three I was teaching him the 50 capitals and it was crazy to watch how he retained that information. It's scary that a baby's brain
Starting point is 00:25:50 is the most functional, highest, best working brain out of any person alive, right? I don't know, dude. You don't think so? Babies don't know shit. Well, okay, maybe not one. I mean, like, first five years of life, how much do you learn in first five years of life?
Starting point is 00:26:05 There's a lot of it. It's not true learning though. It's outrageous. Yeah, it's easy to learn stuff. You're learning everything. Well, I know someone, I already know everything. So it's hard to learn now. If you go to a foreign country and you stay there
Starting point is 00:26:14 for five years, like you're gonna get to know the language pretty well, but like not at all like a, like a child, you know. What is that close off? Like it'll 12 or 13 language stuff? It's sometimes the early teens I think yeah, I had a friend who was Who moved from England to America when he was like 14 or 15 or something like that and he learned a language Crazy go on. Yeah, it's really bizarre really destroying your own point
Starting point is 00:26:39 No, his accent was like so strange like it was because, because he moved at that time, like if you moved, you know, a year earlier, he would have just had a straight American accent. Oh, you're later, straight British accent. It is weird, like, hybrid in between, like, it was sold by both. Yeah, it made out of my butt. It was bizarre. We're going down to Australia in a couple of weeks. And Ashley, who is, was jinx from the frag dolls.
Starting point is 00:27:02 Mm-hmm. So she retired from the frag dolls. I don't know if retired is right word, but, you know, she left Fragg dolls. So she retired from the Fragg dolls. I don't know if her tires are a word, but you know, she left the Fragg dolls, and then she got a job at Xbox. And she moved down to Sydney to work for Xbox Australia. It's pretty cool, you know. And she's been down the hell on now?
Starting point is 00:27:17 God, probably three years, I think. Maybe something like that? Yeah. And I kept up with her on Twitter, and we talk on Twitter, but, you know, it's, I haven't heard her in a while. I'd be curious to see if she has picked up an Australian accent Well, she's down I'm willing to bet yes. Yeah, I think so too I think more likely you tend to pick up the cadence like you don't realize that in different areas
Starting point is 00:27:38 They just have a different cadence. I'd like to try to go like live somewhere for a while to pick up like a Scottish accent I'd like to try to go like live somewhere for a while and try to pick up like a Scottish accent This is gonna sound really weird, but lately I've been watching a lot of top gear and listening to it. Why do that sound weird? Okay, it's so weird man. I went watching top gear and listening to the Ricky Gervais podcast I've been like listening to a lot of British media fucking trade, you know, and It's research and media, fucking trade, you know, and it's research. And, uh, just face, go on, and get a food.
Starting point is 00:28:08 And, uh, so sometimes I'll find myself thinking in a British accent now. I'm serious. Really, go on. And, no, what kind of things do you think in a British accent? Do you find you think about certain topics in an American accent versus a British accent? No, like just like my, like, if you would have an M-log. an American accent versus a British accent? No, like just like my like if you would have an inner monologue
Starting point is 00:28:26 Would that be in a British accent? Do you think six hours ahead? No, I'm just saying like my inner monologue sometimes will be in a British accent now Your inner model, but aren't you aren't you isn't your father British or something? Yeah, yeah So maybe it's in your blood. I guess But I don't know. Yeah, they they call that something when you're when you the voice in your head has a different accent They call it schizophrenia. So You see somebody do you master you master making a different voice so that it's like you're with someone else? You want to do one of the I read one of the creepiest things I've ever read online ever and I read it on Reddit
Starting point is 00:29:02 I don't know. She's saying it's so fun creepy. So yeah. So people on the internet are weird and creepy. This guy talked about a masturbation technique that he uses. Go on. Yes. Where it was I don't even know what the thread was in. He talked about this. It is way that he masturbates where he sits on his own hand until it falls asleep. Oh, the stranger. And then the master mates with his hand when it falls asleep, so it feels like somebody else. Can you use your hand?
Starting point is 00:29:35 I feel like I can't use my hand when it's asleep. Yes, I mean, if you reach a certain level of desperation, you can figure out a way to it. You have to use the other hand to like move it. Because my my my my my sleep hand would be like dead. Is that a real thing? This stranger? It was a on the Dave Chappelle show.
Starting point is 00:29:52 They they talked about it so awful thing. There's a scene every time they're recording. For me a little bit. Cause I thought this guy is like the most pathetic genius ever. He wants to sell me the sleep. I wonder if he gets lazy instead of sitting on it. Like sometimes he'll just tie a rubber band off. most pathetic genius ever. I wonder if he gets lazy instead of sitting on it, like sometimes he'll just tie a rubber band off. I like to cut the circulation, but like I'm going to use you later. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:30:14 I just, at some point, it's just easier to meet people. At some point, he was just going to break down it, just work on the conversation skills. I mean, you get to that point. It's like, wherever you're living, just move. It's not worth the out where you are. Just go try another city, try another country. Go find the cool bars in New York once you move there. You might be able to find some cool people.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Go to Barcade, hang out for like six months. Just don't fuck anything up. Maybe they'll tell you where to go. You get initiated. You'll find out the real bars. She's it's that's funny I don't even know how we can follow up that or like segue into anything else Did you see the wonder years is on Netflix streaming now? How is that possible? I don't know they they had to change the intro song though Like they don't have the Joe Cocker cover of what would you do? A little help from my friends?
Starting point is 00:31:07 Yeah. It's someone else singing it now, but all the other music's there. Yeah, I've noticed that over time. The one year years, for those of you who don't know, was a Fred Savage sitcom in the late 80s, early 90s. And it was all about growing up in the 50s and 60s. The 60s? Yeah, specifically in the 60s, because it was all the music from the late 80s, early 90s. And it was all about growing up in the 50s and 60s. The 60s. Yeah, the specifically the 60s, because it was all the music from the late 60s.
Starting point is 00:31:28 And the music in the show was all popular music from the late 60s. And it was very important to the show. Like, it was all throughout the show. And so it never went into syndication and it was never even on DVD. And the people always wanted to watch it, one of yours. It's real, like, sappy nostalgic show. I liked it a lot. I mean, I was like, I was super young when it was never even on DVD and the people always wanted to watch the one years It's real like sappy it's nostalgic show. I liked it a lot I mean I was like I was super young when it was on it was funny because when it was on I don't I mean I don't know how old I was I was born in 86
Starting point is 00:31:53 But like I saw a few episodes and I really really liked them But I always thought that it was an older show like right because it's it's set in you know It's set in that time period and then like yeah like 10 years later. So I was like no it was made in the 80s I was like what? Marshall was like no it was made in the 80s so like what? Marshall was like what kind of rural race is that? this guy looks great! he's 50, he looks like 25! you know you know what's a fucked up thing to think about?
Starting point is 00:32:13 that show came out that show premiered in 88 and it was set in 68. if someone made a TV show today about events 20 years ago that'd be 1991. yeah the people would be like watching friends in Seinfeld, right? Yeah. On the show. That's really creepy to me. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:31 I think we talked about it before. So we said the last episode of Seinfeld aired 13 years ago. Yeah, it was in 98. Yeah, a little over 13 years ago. That's pretty crazy. The Onion One Time did a great story about that where where they said the U.S. Department of History warned that we're running out of nostalgia. A running out of retro.
Starting point is 00:32:49 I think I agree with that. Yeah. It's Department of Nostalgia says we're running out of retro because things from four years ago now were considered retro and it's like we're reaching a point in which retro will catch up to current time. It's a crisis. It's a retro crisis we're having. Guys, really in our way.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Retro deficiency. I always wonder what the rules are in like oldies radio stations Like is it like do they slowly? Yeah, are they stuck in their decade or yeah, or is it like a set number of years back? Yeah, one point is oldies turn into classic rock right you know and it's like this classic rock station like call on go Hey, don't fucking play it Just two more years till we get neurotic We have four nights to Abercatabra. By this Steve Miller band. Which by the way, that was the first song
Starting point is 00:33:31 that I memorized all the words to. Do you remember the first song that you memorized all the words to? I'm gonna play Abercatabra by this Steve Miller band right now. Watch out, we're gonna be able to syndicate the show. So you think Netflix is through a ton of money at the wonder you're stuff they had to off Yeah, but who are they throwing the money out of throwing at the wonder you're so throwing it up
Starting point is 00:33:51 The recording industry I mean it ends up with the recording industry I'm sure you know is this like Netflix just are they scared that things are going downhill and like this is like a last-ditch effort kind of thing Or one year she thinks her last I don't feel as clamoring for the one years that bad. So, was one year, she thinks it's her last-ditch effort. I don't feel like it's clamoring for the one year's that bad. Oh, we gotta get back on Netflix. It's been, it's been in the works for a while. The CEO had a blog entry about it, like back in March, saying that they were about to get it.
Starting point is 00:34:13 And I guess it just took them the long to figure it out. I gotta be honest with you, I have never seen the shine come off a company as fast as I've watched it come off of Netflix. Like, a year ago, everyone talked about Netflix like it was the greatest company ever Yeah, and now people are just pissed and don't but here's the things here's the thing about Netflix though Like you have one friend that has an account and like you know a ton of people watch like the instant streaming like just on his account You know, I don't know that that's that's legal. Do you do you have your
Starting point is 00:34:42 That's legal. Do you have your own phone? No. What kind of cheap box is that? It's like $10 a month, eight? I wouldn't even ask my friend. I was a bearer. I was in like, hey, can I go home off your eight box box account? I mean, I was in college, but two or three years ago.
Starting point is 00:34:56 So, I think it's like, here, are you going to finish that? Can I, can I bind your Netflix account to my Xbox Live account? It's literally all the media you can watch for eight bucks a month and you guys Do you guys like kick in like two boxes? What's the same as like download in the DVD, you know, I know that's a little different though Cuz it's like, you know, there's some dude, you know, one of your friends is paying for it. Is that me or you? It's me. Oh Yeah, that's a guy's just Mac kicked up in the high gear. What are you doing over there? I don't know rendering something for'm fucking recording five tracks of audio at once. I'll talk about rendering please. Oh, yeah, Carrie just came off of a massive crunch
Starting point is 00:35:30 Where he was how how how many I don't want to say it, but how many hours do you think he worked? I have no way yeah, he was here pretty consistently. I mean the whole time at least 12 to 18 hours a day if not more some days at least 12 to 18 hours a day if not more some days. You know you can live the computer's render for you right? You don't have to do it yourself manually. I just tried their prescient button. Did you like the no-pad? 1,001, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, yesterday of the kid who made the popsicle stick wave. Do you know what I'm talking about? It's very, very strange.
Starting point is 00:36:08 I'm gonna see if I can play it for you here. Oh. I got a little audio here with kid making the stick bomb. Okay, you guys keep talking off. Okay. So, Carrie and I were really excited that Apple and S iPhone 4S yesterday, despite the fact that Marshall is not very excited about it. What iPhone do you have currently? The 3G. The 3G? Yeah. that Apple announced iPhone 4s yesterday, despite the fact that Marshall's not very excited about it. What's his head?
Starting point is 00:36:25 What iPhone do you have currently? The 3G. The 3G? Yeah, in school. You're not, I don't know. You don't want to upgrade that badly? What are you doing, Joel? Hey, come on in here.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Come on in, come in, come in. Come in, come in. Joel. We're just going to talk about Netflix, and we're going to talk about Apple. Sorry, guys, we're going to move microphones around for a second so I'm going to make it a little bumpy. Yeah, that's a good Netflix. We've had enough? I'm just thinking about around for a second so my little bumpy
Starting point is 00:36:49 I'm just thinking about you know I was talking about Netflix. We're talking about the shine came off of Netflix And I've never seen a shine come off a company as fast as it's come off of Netflix. Yeah, that thinks a total disaster That thinks it's total disaster. Don't don't pull any punches. They were People are like speculating that they're gonna sell off an arm to Amazon and I don't know what they were doing like they're gonna rebrand or whatever. Oh, yeah, the physical media portion It's been renewed. I bought that Fucker at $42 and sold that fucker at $270 and got out and go am I happy? You brought more than one share that I did the what's it? What's it now?
Starting point is 00:37:23 It's like a hundred and ten or something now. I'm going I will never go back when you bought the shares Did you split them share with some of your friends? What's your I shared it with Vegas? I? Did the same thing that Joel did with Apple actually I bought it at about 80 sold it at 90 nice get It's 90. Nice get free. Yeah, yeah, it's only a 400. Yeah, yeah, I'm glad I got out of my day. If you bought it in 90, that means you bought it like 2007. I bought it a long time ago. You're like the dude who took the first exit at the haunted house like this. Get out now. I saw the first one.
Starting point is 00:37:55 I have my fun. I'm on it. That's why it's just you can second-guess yourself to death because it's sort of like sometimes it just pays you know not to pay attention what happens to it after the fact it's's just, I had a buddy of mine, his mother bought Dell at, I wanna say, eight dollars. She bought it at eight and it went up and she sold it at 32, so she made 400% on her investment.
Starting point is 00:38:21 And she threw a big party and it was an awesome party. Well, Del went to like 250 after splitting I think like six times. Del in the 90s, you go look at that. Yeah, that was crazy. All those little triangles where it splits, it was just like, I mean, she would have been a multi-multimillionaire. Yeah. It's like all like Google and Apple and all that like if you there's a book that investors was daily rights talking about that like the top Stocks that exists like top growth stocks, and it's like those things. It's not like 600 percent It's like 40,000 percent like if you get into the right stock
Starting point is 00:38:54 It's like not 100 percent so it's like 40 or 50,000 percent. I mean that's how do you find those stocks? They're you're looking history books. It's easy to tell it's a retrospect. Yeah, well, I mean When when when things are going right a growth stock is what you want, you know, I mean it's like it's gonna be that high PE High earnings like it's simple any stock that's got big big earnings You know, we're over quarter year over year. That's what you want me see if I'm understanding your but your financial advice You're correctly. You're seeing a growth stock is good growth star understanding your but your financial advice you're correctly you're saying the growth stock is good growth stock companies with profits invest in those stocks that grow well we'll see now I have not totally reverse I'm you don't want
Starting point is 00:39:31 growth stocks now anything that's high PE I'm not you don't want that now you probably want PE you're talking about the earning ratio yes price price price price now you want low you want low PE you want a value stock now now we're in a different era and now we want that dividend or you could do that all along and just we have a good investment strategy long term as opposed to just like jumping back and forth you do something no I mean something changes I mean things change at the 2008 it was time to buy gross rocks we bought gross stocks we got to the right, growth fund, that time is over now. That it's over, get out of the gross stocks mostly and get into dividend stocks. It's different times. I tell, Mark is going lower.
Starting point is 00:40:11 I tell, I used to call him crazy and say he was insane, but no, he's insane. No, he's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while.
Starting point is 00:40:24 He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off for a while. He's been dead off'm waiting you out There's name one name a single talk. I was wrong about there was one we were talking about the other day What was the one when I was last on the podcast? I said what about goal? I said the the chart went parabolic when charts get Parabolic it's probably gonna trade back to 1600 back towards the trend line here Here we are we're making 1600 it doesn doesn't matter in 2008 I bought Apple at 142 and in the market tank and it was like it doesn't matter because you have that conviction same thing with gold I'm telling you years from now it's going to be higher would be much higher that's what it is yeah gold could trade down to a thousand four hundred that's like the next stop it doesn't matter doesn't matter
Starting point is 00:41:06 conviction Let's see you have a long so you do have a long-term strategy not just jumping from one thing to the next is the trends a lot Right now the gold is a long-term strategy. Yeah, okay, I mean so I'm not sure you guys the popsicle wave So this some kid made this I want you guys to fucking explain the physics of this to me Let's get Brandon to explain Come on. If I hate any website, I hate break.com. I gotta say. They've got a...
Starting point is 00:41:29 Do you guys talk about that thing that you've linked to? Just explain to me, Jolly. You gotta watch this to explain to me how this works. 321 go. That's some kind of movie editing. Oh, that's crazy. I'm going to do it. Try to say it worked. That was great.
Starting point is 00:41:54 After effects. Very simple explanation. What is it? Magic. Oh, there you go. And to keep it like a big line of pops, it's on the ground. Let's see how he starts it off. They're all made of mintos. It's almost like a rope.
Starting point is 00:42:03 And you do that thing when your foot is the rope and make make a wave in it and then the wave goes down the rope I think it's like but this thing sustains for way longer than it should there must be some kind of I think it sounds like we've together Yeah, there's some kind of tension in it. Yeah, and kind of pressure spring it That is weird though. How come I don't know about that? It's awesome. That's all like popsicle sticks are neat technology Why am I getting that? And we love eating popsiclesicles so how the hell did they just go with it? You want a thousand pop I'll get you thousand pops because You're talking about that light speed thing that you linked about oh the quantum physics. Yeah, yeah, I can't talk about it Why is that cuz that's fucked up?
Starting point is 00:42:35 We were just talking a little while ago about how weird memory works where your ability to remember something It's so convoluted like the reason why you remember a number is because you associate it with something else that you remember who knows why the fuck you remember that thing and what Joel's talking about I was gonna start talking about the quantum experiment as part of that but it's just a sign of universe is just fucking faking everything on the on the smallest level but it was actually is observing things can affect the outcome even if you don't directly interact with it just the act the act of observation can affect the outcome. Even if you don't directly interact with it, just the act of observation can change the course of it.
Starting point is 00:43:07 That makes like perception a lot more... Yes. That's weird. Context. Like, that we give context to the universe, not that it gives context to us. It's funny to me because like that's pretty much how your brain works. Your brain is nothing but making meaning out of things and context. And I mean... You guys ever want to have go on as you were saying please continue if you ever want to have fun
Starting point is 00:43:34 go out with John Reed for lunch. John Reed is the voice actor who plays the director in red versus blue and he's this guy who's like he he's like, hippies. That's cool, deep voice actor voice, but he has, he will talk about like numerology and philosophy and quantum physics and just the way the universe works and the, and we've been all together. The third eye that's in your forehead and he's with like spirituality and all this stuff. And he, he will just, that lunch, he just goes just goes great crazy. It's awesome. It's really awesome But only in lunches not during dinner. It is true. It is true. It's like he's just like he is it's just crazy all the stuff He talks about like he's a he's a master or what's called a raky master. You'll ever heard of raky
Starting point is 00:44:18 No, imagine it's almost like massage. It's closing anything to it or acupressure But you don't touch the person like I just like here's me there I'm a ricky master. I'm like with Marshall. I'm like getting close with my mom's is to get certified I don't know you like the emperor from Star Wars is what I'm gathering here Yeah, you like tune energy and and whatnot so he he does that stuff. Does that have overhand started? It's pretty much like yeah, you're drawing, you're drawing, they're so loud through your hand. And so it's crazy. And like one of my favorite pictures that I've ever taken was one of the first days that
Starting point is 00:44:52 Michael Ragequit was in the office. I took him out to lunch with John Reeve and sound was like going off on this big long tangent about spirituality and the history and conspiracy. They're really as conspiracy-later than they're too. And it's a picture of like Michael listening to John talking You see Michael's got like this thousand yards John is John from the background of the picture like very like animated and then passionate about something He's breaking him with his voice
Starting point is 00:45:19 But you should that guy should definitely go at the lunch with John sometime. It's a blast It's a interesting conversations that you can have with, you can listen to from him. You have to bring him on here. It will challenge you. Yeah, we should. We should definitely bring John the boss. One of these days when he has a Wednesday recording session, we'll see if we can get him in here for a little while.
Starting point is 00:45:37 I'll do it. I'll schedule him on a Wednesday, sure. Yeah, it works. Maybe it probably have to be for next season since this season's wrapped. You could do it all at the same time. You could do the dialogue and the podcast all at once. We have a recording audio. Yeah, gentlemen.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Bye. Such an awesome. There was a time when I contemplated trying to play the director until we found John Reed and his voice was just so fucking awesome. But he makes you want to smoke cigars and drink whiskey. It does. It really does. And he has a he has like a methodology He does like get into that character and get into that voice because he doesn't it's not quite there
Starting point is 00:46:10 You know when he comes in and then he's like works on it to get it there he smokes cigar drinks and whiskey He eats sand You ate sand. What's that from? Huh raising Arizona. Oh great movie man. I was the only forever When there was no cruddeb, great movie. Man, that's the end of it forever. When there was no crowd ed, we ate sand. Yates? Okay. Sorry, I'm going to go ahead and eat some of the grass.
Starting point is 00:46:32 So you're not going to upgrade your phone, Marshall. Back to what we were talking about. Okay. A long time ago. Here's my thing about Apple. You have the phone that's like three iterations open now. Yeah. I own a lot of Apple products and I hate Apple.
Starting point is 00:46:47 My phone, I stupidly upgraded to the new OS, because you know, that's what you're supposed to do. And now my phone doesn't work, my maps don't work, my phone is like lethargicly slow and basically I've decided that Apple in their new OS is sabotage all the older models of stuff. So if you get it all online from so slow now and if you don't know a lot about technology or marketing or deception or any of that stuff you're like oh I should go out and buy the new one.
Starting point is 00:47:23 So that's why I don't. So your three year old phone is slow and sucks so you don't want to buy a new phone. I'm not. Also, this phone is a crap. I'm not a fan of it. I'm just throwing that out. I'm not a huge fan of it. I'm not a fan of it.
Starting point is 00:47:34 I want to hear this. I said that the electronic device you've owned and used consistently for three years, you don't want to replace it. Why should, like, why does it run, and this is... Why is that weird? I'll just say this. I'm asking him. I run and this is why is that weird. I'll just say I'm asking I'm saying this is probably a stupid question. Okay, but why why would my phone run slower today than it did. You're right. It's because you always they added more features and the processor can't handle
Starting point is 00:47:55 all the features. Exactly. That was the one thing that drove me absolutely. Because it's crazy about the last iPhone is that the processor speed was just as well. Because I remember I'll always I will always pay to get faster processing speed. I remember being in like marketing classes and having students like, you know, raise their hand and say, well, you know, if we create a product that's too good, you know, people will buy it and they won't ever come back. So, you know, really, you should only buy a product or create products that only last for two or three years.
Starting point is 00:48:20 People enjoy it and come back and buy more. You just described the pharmaceuticals industry. That's the most important thing. I'm sex in every industry. Yeah, I mean, it's like, you know, there's like the engineer bolts only last six years in your car, you know. It's like designed. And it was like, I think for like 20 years in my life, I had thought that like people were good and there was no like pure evil in the world.
Starting point is 00:48:38 And then after that guy said, I was just like, it's like like cars, you'll get a hundred thousand mile warranty. But, you know, like I said, all the bolts are rated to 120,000 miles. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. It's just trying to make money. Yep And here's the story of when you get into medicine and you wonder when was the last time they cured something was it polio? They can treat something actually I think that's kind of out the window now because they essentially they've cured HPV Because they made a vaccine for HPV. Oh right if it's administered young enough, right? Mm-hmm, you know, which is like polio too. I mean you can't do it after you get polio Yeah, I mean that's the argument, right? Where it's like, we're just gonna like,
Starting point is 00:49:07 we're not gonna cure cancer, we're just gonna treat it. That way we have an income stream forever. Yeah. And I'm not sure I buy that because it's like if you're a company that cures cancer, I mean, that's gonna, you're gonna make some money. You're gonna do well. But you could make more.
Starting point is 00:49:23 Yeah. It's just, it's a creepy thing when you think about it too much, you know, it is. But you could make more. Yeah. It's just it's a creepy thing when you think about it too much, you know. It is. Yeah. Like they cured lots of things. I mean, it's some, did somebody rake in a shitload of money from the polio vaccine? Well, the funny thing is that. Marker times. Fuckers. Okay. All those times. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I mean, yeah. And Apple, I mean, they also like, you're like, oh, buy our new product because everyone buys it. Apple products are great. If you don't buy your stupid, and oh, it's in a new color now, so it's better. See, see, for me, I like Apple products, and the reason
Starting point is 00:49:55 it's simple is because it gives me the least amount of problems. I like it. I like their products. I absolutely hate like their, I don't know, any kind of like the fanaticism, the marketing and like the bigger like scarier evil like, oh we don't sell older products, we only sell the newest, I don't know, just listen, never like, when it comes to the iPhone in particular, just stop it. I mean this is like a miraculous device. I mean it's a, you have access to a worldwide network of computers in your pocket. This is like a star Trek item. It has more, it has like more processing power than what
Starting point is 00:50:29 they had to put them to the moon. It's in your pocket. And I agree, you know, I agree that iPhones are great and they're a superior product, but there's also a ton of other stuff out there that's, that's almost just as good. If you time traveled back to 85 with this in your hand, they would be more impressed by this than the time travel machine that you showed up in Provo. The government would like, they would shoot you, they would shoot you for having this. I mean this week, I saw Robocop on Netflix the other day, Robocop. And part of Robocop is they have a tracker on Robocop, maybe Robocop too, I don't know. They had some tracking device and they cut the shots of the tracking device in the guy's hand the made up Device that they had that they just had to fake look 80 times shittier than this real thing that does that it'll track stuff It'll track where I am in the world. This tells me where I am in the world
Starting point is 00:51:17 I've learned since I had this thing. I not know that the street that I drive on it's not north and south It's north it goes north and. You always know where that large, mineral deposit in Canada is now. All the way. No matter where you are in the world. Where I am in relation to the South Pole, that's information I can access at any point in time. Magnetic South Pole.
Starting point is 00:51:33 It's weird to think that, thank you, sir. Specifically. Like you wonder about like side streets and little communities, you're gonna start blocking off roads now because everyone has an navigation device where it's like, well, just cut through here. It's just sort of like everything. I do that all the time.
Starting point is 00:51:44 I cut through, oh, yeah yeah I got my first beating ticket already again first beating ticket but then it's not your first beating ticket but then having my car back there's like three to three days first beating ticket already again I think I think the first beating ticket I got my car back three days later is being taken you know like my ex-girlfriend the the virginity. Pick it up wherever. Start over. Clean slate. Oh fast three door. I was only going 80 and a 70. Seems stupid. I don't know. Yeah. Why would they enforce that? I got a 77 and a 71 time. I think one and four seconds. Jill drives a nice car. You know I
Starting point is 00:52:22 never stop me my pickup. Never know I was talking my pickup never Because it was a different it's a different experience driving a pickup truck around it was it was so different I'm not learning my truck out to anybody anymore. I love my truck truck to Griffin for a day. She fucking wrecked it I loaned it to Joel for a week. He gets a toad. He got my truck to oh yeah, yeah that that was not my fault How is it not your fault? That was not my fault I didn't give me a sticker and figured and stay in there of course it didn't because it's 105 fucking degrees It's just like the stickiness of the Glues only raised 102 degrees and I had to keep my mind glued I had to pay for all that I had to like pay $200 to get the thing that's bullshit. Yeah, I'm a complex for the compensator you for that if you had the sticker
Starting point is 00:53:03 Well, you know what there's no I think we talked about this before we know about it I always said if I got rich enough I would just buy a tow truck that's big enough to tow trucks That's what we do all day. Yeah, I would just wait if I see a guy in a tow truck at follow them so it goes like a diner Goes in I'd be like, oh wait truck up. I just didn't like the way you were parked. I decided I'm towing away your vehicle And if you want to get it if you want to get it off the like he comes out and yell at me up Well, if I want to lower it, you got to pay me 70 bucks. What is that the hook the hook fee The government keeping the tow truck driver down. Yeah, you guys ever run into that is it is it true that if you're in the car they can't tow it I think they can't move it, but they can raise it like can you jump in your car?
Starting point is 00:53:39 Like you start like a protest. Yeah, did you did you actually live at the office for a month? Like you start like a protest. Yeah, did you did you actually look at the office for a month? Because I noticed every morning I Would show up in the morning and you were the only one who's here and your hair was dishevelled Yeah, and you're always walking around in the blanket. You're like the Obi-Wan Kenobi of the office Always walking around in a blanket. There were there were there were some days where I stayed at Chris's. I'm I'm kind of on short-range. Yes. Sam on board with having somebody here that way it's like if someone breaks in. Yeah, that's why I'm sleeping. Yeah, I was about to say what do you think is going to have a
Starting point is 00:54:19 marshal come food them out of the building? It's like yeah, I'm happy to have some like you so we have stolen stuff in a dead employee. We like Obi-Wan Kenobi with like it run. He's got the force. Well are you gonna upgrade your phone? Yes. Okay. I will too. You will also. I mean I have an iPhone 4 I will upgrade mine. You have a phone to wear. I'm not Marshall. Let me let me say this and I'll say this just for the record So you guys can stop yelling at me. I'm a simple man simple needs No, I see nothing I see nothing
Starting point is 00:54:51 I agree with you. I agree with you completely it's like we it's back you know 10 years ago I mean or even it's like the cycle on cell phones We're in shorter and shorter and shorter just like we didn't know about the iPhone for us Yeah, we were all perfect. It's like wait, it's been two weeks and you don't have a new phone It's just like it's getting them. I don't know so I there's nothing wrong with having Three years. I'm totally cool and But it is lame that it gets slower. I mean those updates. Yep. Your TV updated the other day. That's horrible It's like going backwards
Starting point is 00:55:21 It's like you're Playing a game and my TV popped up an overly on top of the game It's it system update required update now and I can't see my game anymore. I'm getting fucking killed Yeah, it's like when I signed up with the time Warner It was like well, do you want the phone thing? It's like no, I don't want the phone. You want the phone thing? So it's got it's like they just force you into having a home phone Yeah, why can't part of the package and it's like oh, it's a great feature now anytime that anyone calls this phone It's gonna pop up on my TV.
Starting point is 00:55:46 I don't even have a phone plugged in anywhere. I have a line now that it's like, Marker just called my line now, pops up on my TV. It's awesome. So it's like a commercial just where there's no information. It just blocks entertainment. The best kind of commercial. You know, what you don't realize to you about these like DVRs and IP phones and all that is that there's, and Gus and I have dealt with this in our previous career a
Starting point is 00:56:07 Lot of our emergency services are fed through those devices and so you don't realize if you turn off your home phone 911 is suddenly a problem for you like you dial 911. How do they find you on a cell phone? They get you kind of close. It should be a point where soon I would think phones would pass GPS information. Yeah, they had, they call it E 911. They had to do it as it several years ago. I don't know if that's a local. No, I'm sure that's just, I'm one text. I'm serious, look at that.
Starting point is 00:56:33 No, you can text. Austin Police Department has an app. You can text. Yeah. I'm having a less than three attack. Please come help me. I've heard that. Law shortage.
Starting point is 00:56:45 That'd be an awesome like mistacks. Auto correct from like heart attack. I'm perfectly fine. Get a lawsuit. But same thing with IP phones, they have to pass 9-1 information. You don't want people showing up at the co-location facility where all these things are out to, you know, wait for passing the information for interest there. And likewise, I realize the day that DVRs with the emergency broadcast system, they've now developed a way to break through the DVR. If you're watching the say show from Tuesday, well, like a lot of people do now, like I'm watching the office on Friday, They can pass So your weather information through your DVR really live updates. Yep, so you could be bothered
Starting point is 00:57:31 During the recording of the show with outdated information that you're watching and then with current information as well That is correct. Awesome. Yeah, so do you think we'll see that with like Presidential addresses and stuff like that. What do you mean? Well, like if you're if you're watching something and then it's like you know They want to the FCC rule or it has to be for the public good or whatever. Yeah. Yeah. No, I just say I don't know about that I don't know if that passage from that broadcast. I think they would only pass through like information if it's Like danger. Okay, like emergency broadcaster severe weather probably now like here watch this Okay, what you want to watch? Have you ever been scared by those emergency broadcast tests like you're in another room and then you don't hear the announcement that they're about to test it and then all of a sudden you hear the tone. Have you
Starting point is 00:58:11 already had that? I was always assuming the test. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They can test that too much. Can't they? Yeah. I haven't as anyone ever heard like an actual warning. No. Not even on 9-11. They didn't use the emergency broadcast system. What would it take? Huh aliens it nukes I always saw when I was a kid I was imagined that it was like for warning of nuclear war nuclear line Yeah, when we were younger we had that drill right? They was like that goes on you go to the desk. We're weapons. Yeah, we had that world the what when we were like I remember being elementary school
Starting point is 00:58:41 It's like we're gonna do the we're all gonna get new to drill Yeah, it's like we're gonna do the, we're all gonna get new to drill. And it's like okay, and the siren goes off and you get under the desk. Yeah, I don't know what the desk is. Well you also lived in D.C., right? I did live in D.C. Yeah, so fuck up Marshall. What were you saying? My parents tell me about that.
Starting point is 00:58:55 Yeah, we did. Looking on the border, we didn't duck under the desk. We just fucking high-tailed it for Mexico. Got the fuck out of here. In my high school, we had drills. We had held still in case the time ran a source of Rex came into the classroom. Like, because they said motion. And everyone was hold still for 30 seconds.
Starting point is 00:59:08 I was the best at it. We had the school shooting drills. What's our thing? Did you really? Yeah. Get school shooting drills. I went through a school shooting. Wow.
Starting point is 00:59:16 So then when we get hurt in your school shooting, I feel like we're being... I can't even talk about it. You're the one who brought it up! He talked about it before. Your principal doesn't sound hostage, right? That's right. He talked about the war. Your principal was so lost it right? That's right. He talked about it on the podcast a long time ago Yeah, because you remember you looked it up and linked it. Oh right, right, right
Starting point is 00:59:31 Yeah, we're gonna get so we're gonna get so old that it's just like we're just gonna say the same podcast over and over again Like we're not going to get old. Yeah, going to get old. This is number one 34. We're about to have some This is why we get to talk about the current events science stuff like the the speed of like thing Okay, so the reason why you know it's hard science is because they were trying to prove something else Right and it's right for something else. Oh, by the way. Here's this. That's how you know it's hard science like how they discovered radioactivity Penicillin and Viagra same thing. It's just like so I don't even know what were they testing for? What were they looking for? I don't know what they were doing.
Starting point is 01:00:06 They were doing, we jumped up from Viagra. Viagra was a blood pressure medication, and it wasn't working, but all the tests people were like, I have something to report. I have something to report. So he's non-stop boners. It makes sense to me to think about it. The erection just blood flow, right?
Starting point is 01:00:23 For you, maybe. For me, there's a lot more to go through. I need a plan. I need a plan. And I need a plan. It's a real excitement. There's a top here. I need a plan.
Starting point is 01:00:33 It's a sleep. I need a plan. It's a sleep. I need a plan. It's a sleep. I need a plan. I need a plan. I need a plan.
Starting point is 01:00:41 I need a plan. I need a plan. I need a plan. I need a plan. I need a plan. I need a plan. I need a plan. I need about five minutes and a wooden chair Let's call the callback We were talking earlier about a guy read online. Then he has a technique for masturbation where he sits He sits on his own hand and makes it fall asleep. So it feels like somebody else the stranger All right, well, you know That's there could be worse things I guess. Yeah, it's not so bad
Starting point is 01:01:02 And they're probably You say the word internet masturbation. It's like probably on top of the list. I know, I know. It's like, you say the word internet, masturbation. It's like, I'm out. I don't want to know. You know, I have to say, I've say, the internet is creepy and weird. But I'm happy for the creepy and weirdness that is, I appreciate the creepy and weirdness on the internet,
Starting point is 01:01:16 because people who have, you know, everybody has stuff and they're specific to them, stuff they like or whatever. And some people are obviously on the extreme. If those people can find each other, that's great. I think that's specific to them stuff they like or whatever and some people are obviously on the extreme If those people can find each other that's great I think that's a good thing if people have these Interests that they can then I guess vent I don't know for lack of a better term. It's not all pent up Yeah, they're not closed in their apartment, you know You know, you know, hopefully they can find somebody else who wants to share this experience with them instead of forcing it upon somebody else They can find another stranger. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:45 Now find another stranger. Find someone who has like a prosthetic hand or something like that. Oh man, I bet people are into that, right? I'm sure he can find it. Let's, let's, you know there's a term. Let's ruin my Google history search forever. Here. prosthetic.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I've had to link some, some crazy things before. Like, I think the, probably the worst thing I've ever had to link in the link I'm with, Shmoing. But, it's a dude to have a fetish for like really buff women who beat them up. Like imagine like if you were into like bodybuilding women and you wanted them to beat you up and then, good times, you know, get it on with them. Shmoin, you think it out of a different name?
Starting point is 01:02:27 That. I don't know. I'm disturbed. I'm happy to say I looked up prosthetic hands, masturbation, ungooled. I got nothing. Really? No, I feel like I got to be into that.
Starting point is 01:02:37 I got some TV tropes, oddly enough, which I don't know what that TV show people are watching. I wonder if you're into prosthetic hands if like a mannequin hand would be good enough or you're like that's not realistic enough It needs to be a little more like utility Gust you clearly put a lot of thought into this do you want to borrow my computer? Do you want to start the trend? Yeah, I'm gonna start it fucking I'm gonna start a Procedetic hand masturbation appreciation thread. So you're saying like points of articulation Well, here's the good news while I was searching for that, I was logged in as Jeff in the Google.
Starting point is 01:03:06 So that's on him now. Great. Let's look up some other stuff here. How about overthrow government? Actually, I'm signing the Ruchotis YouTube account, which links to Google. Yeah, we disabled our search history, but you can still see the history on YouTube. And sometimes you can find some really interesting videos other people in our Office have watched because of it. I've run into that too. I watched a Brooklyn Decker bikini video and Jack found it as a result of that and I think he had a journal about it on a Rooster Teeth.
Starting point is 01:03:34 But yeah, if you look at the Rooster Teeth history on YouTube, you can find some interesting things. I think I have a screenshot here of one that I took. I was like, I don't know what you're doing, but I was gonna send it out, but I didn't wanna shame anybody on the list. I saw a shame from the podcast. Let me see if I can find that here. Yeah, if I can shame a friend of just a couple employees and you can shame a friend of thousands of listeners. Oh, damn, and I can't find it.
Starting point is 01:03:56 I do have a screenshot here of CPNI Legion host who wrote us a compliment saying, Ruchitee, you guys don't ever suck cock ever So that's our best compliment. I think I've ever nice thing anyone's ever keep that cock out of your mouth Yeah, at least on YouTube it's nice thing. I never said oh damn. I don't have it here. Oh, I guess I should mention while you're still looking for that If you haven't looked at it, there's a new Roushichy animated adventure on our YouTube channel today Oh, that's cool brand you never shown before Oh really? Do you want to bring a story covers? It has the
Starting point is 01:04:29 Our recreation of an in a gaming industry party and Has your telling of the first time you watched it out of the dead and your brother told it was based on a true story Okay, yeah, fucking dick So we'll be releasing those every Wednesday hand in hand with the podcast. So check it out. So you can't find that, you can't find the screenshot? No, I can't. Okay, but I want to go back as we were talking about the speed of light. So they broke the speed of light, right? There's an experiment. It's a certain they did this where they determined that neutrinos, which I don't know what the fuck neutrinos are. There's some
Starting point is 01:05:01 kind of particle that the particle of a balanced breakfast. Apparently so. And this thing goes faster than the speed of light. And then I had people correcting me all the professional scientists on the internet were coming back to me and saying, Bernie, nothing can break the speed of light. They didn't break the speed of light. They were already going faster than the speed of light.
Starting point is 01:05:17 It's like, what does that mean? That's breaking, they start breaking the speed of light. You're saying, you're that argument? When you get a speeding ticket, you're like, officer, I wasn't speeding. I was already going faster than the speed limit. And you're in a rotation to the Earth's rotation. I hope so.
Starting point is 01:05:32 But so anyway, so they found something that was going faster than the speed of light. Okay. And so this was a Joel's car. No, it's a Joel's car. And so these particles now have to go to defense and drive. And otherwise they're going to go on. So this is a thing that they didn't think could happen. And it's supposed to be one of the fundamental laws of physics.
Starting point is 01:05:53 Basically, what are they doing at CERN? They're like smashing particles, right? And they're trying to find a certain particle when they smash these particles together as a byproduct. And so what happened here? Were they smashing particles and one of them after it smashed, broke the speed of light?
Starting point is 01:06:08 And I do want me to expand on that? I don't fucking know. I mean, that's the layman's explanation, yeah. They did smashing, I don't understand that. And they just smashing and they're like, hey wait, everyone seems to have a direction. I'm not sure. I'm not sure.
Starting point is 01:06:21 I'm not sure. I'm not sure. And if you just picked up the podcast, I'm just guessing right anywhere else they were able to I guess recreate it and they're even saying like we don't believe what we're seeing we must be doing something Also, they said listen, we're not really concerned about this we have this other thing We're sort of focused on so we're not really interested in trying to argue with you about this or whatever Here's the data you go check it out. We're gonna go back to the secret thing we're working on Don't worry about what we're gonna do We did happen to do the speed of life thing don't I mean just you can pay attention to that part But don't worry about what we're doing over here what's going on what are they working on well the story is big red broad speed like but they're not they don't care about that part
Starting point is 01:07:10 there's something else is already what are they working on what's going on there do you remember that you can turn we talked about this one before too I think you remember the guy who was developing um it was a machine that would rotate light through a series of mirrors and lasers and he would rotate It was a laser that he would send to mirrors and we'd rotate it like through a column. Go on. Yes. Oh right. And his theory was that if he could bend the light far enough that he could exceed the speed
Starting point is 01:07:38 of light, which meant that he could send just light back in time. And that's, well, who cares, right? He gets in light back in time. We're more scot and stuff. Exactly. He gets in data back. So then what he said was, he was working on the machine, and he'd know when the machine was working, because the moment it started to work,
Starting point is 01:07:56 he would then immediately start to receive messages from himself in the future. Right. So that's ancient concept. You turn the machine on, and that's when you can start receiving the world. When it comes after Tuesday, he was successful. That's the pressing thing about the fact that we know that we haven't discovered is because nothing's happening That you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, things might have happened
Starting point is 01:08:12 But you know, I know where I want like an irresponsible person in the future to do something where you just like shows up And a fake alien spacecraft or where we want some spectacular about what about the internet? You know, you know, it would be awesome. Yeah Yeah, but this is boring. This is we need something more. It'd be a great movie too if he had the guy developing the machine, and he turns the machine on to test it to see if it works, and it receives a message, and the first message is, turn off the machine, run. And that's it.
Starting point is 01:08:36 It's like, what the fuck? And he's like, you know, been a knock in the door, you know. And he's like, you silly out the window. Don't open the door. Or he turns the machine on, and I call him 5S still get out the window. Don't open the door. Or if you turn the machine on and I call him 5S comes out from Marshall. But it all seriously snowed. If they did break the speed of light, if this is a fundamental thing in the universe, a fundamental law of the universe, and we somehow have broken that, right?
Starting point is 01:08:56 I mean, yeah. I put this on Twitter, but I really believe this. If we did that, that means we now live in the time when we are most likely to be contacted by an alien civilization. Like right now, because we've done this. So if someone can somehow measure this from afar that we've done this, and they would be concerned about that, now we live in a time when an alien civilization
Starting point is 01:09:16 could take an interest in us. Sexually? That's because, when they accelerate the part of the process, they're like, they're into that. Yeah, I mean, that's their like, putting their hand asleep. It's like, oh, it's an alien stranger. That's the same as it. Neutrino's faster than the speed alive. They're sitting on a tentacle right now, you think?
Starting point is 01:09:36 Way to go, yeah. But, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, but, all these weird apocalypse, things like, oh, the, you know, it's gonna be the end of the biblical times and God's gonna come down the angels or the earth's gonna explode, the sun's gonna explode or the Mayan calendar's gonna run out and you really don't believe all those things, but if all the weird wacko end of the world scenarios, people do believe in alien civilizations. Well, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I
Starting point is 01:10:03 mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, mean, I mean, I mean, mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I Yeah, it's just not possible for it not to happen then to happen. So of all the crazy things of all the crazy things I can end the world and weird sci-fi stuff that we just write off as being fiction It could potentially happen that us alien ship shows up in the atmosphere one day and our lives are completely different I mean that could happen. It's statistically. It's probably not likely, but it could and the my and thing is just garbage I don't necessarily believe in religion that God wants to destroy the Earth that he built for whatever reason.
Starting point is 01:10:29 So I don't think those, I really don't believe those things are happening. But in some level, I honestly believe that aliens could show up. Like we could be at war with aliens. There's any point that could just start. So you think they'll immediately be hostile? No, I think it could have, sure.
Starting point is 01:10:41 That's a cost point. I wouldn't, I think it would, it wouldn't be. Thanks, that's right. I think they would show up and everyone would be frozen. And you wouldn't know, you just like, you would he could have sure. Okay, that's a possibility. Why wouldn't they be? I think it wouldn't be. I think they would show up and everyone would be frozen and you wouldn't know. You just like, you just stopped to be. You think they have some technology where they just shut off your nervous system or something? Yeah, that's it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:53 You're actually skyline. No. They kind of touched on that a little bit. Like they had some kind of light that everyone, you know, they see the ship. Did that say that movie come out? Yeah, it came out. It came out like two months before Battlefield Los Angeles or whatever that is. Those are the guys that basically, did they steal?
Starting point is 01:11:07 I'm not going to say steal, but they took all the special effects. The rumor was, it was the visual effects company who worked on battle Los Angeles. And then when they were doing most of the visual effects for Battle Los Angeles, they decided to make their own aliens invade Earth, sci-fi movie, VFX movie. And was that part of it? For like a tenth of the budget, essentially. Nice. And then put it out two months before Battle of Los Angeles.
Starting point is 01:11:29 Was that part of the thing where, how is it, there's like a beam of light and what happened? Okay, so like, you know, if the alien spaceship lands or you know, hovers over Austin, everyone in Austin is gonna go outside and look at the thing and probably get their iPhone, I've four S or whatever. It's like, I think it'll be Marshall's, because it's over two-celled.
Starting point is 01:11:44 Marshall will be like, I'm still on dial. Mine's only five, 0.5 megapixels, so I can't really lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money.
Starting point is 01:11:52 I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money.
Starting point is 01:12:00 I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. I've got a lot of money. Well, it would like they people couldn't look away and that's how to capture people was just the act of them looking at the light And they didn't explain how it worked. It's like your car accident Yeah, and then it would start walking towards the ship and then it would draw them up Yeah, yeah, it'll be something you don't understand. Yeah, something you don't have any concept Yeah, and you you might not even be aware of it. It'll be over or I mean, you know
Starting point is 01:12:18 Simply like what if they can't reach us, but they can send something here, you know Like a bomb. Yeah, we're like what was the thing in the Starship Troopers, they just sent a meteor. Oh, right. Right. They just knocked a meteor out of our asteroid belt. And that's, you think they're going to be, if we do come and test vales, they're going to be hostile? No question.
Starting point is 01:12:36 No question. No question. You're amongst the human species. You know, when humans would meet other humans years ago, what happened? It's true. They would kill each other. I mean, here's the thing though. I mean, they're not humans.
Starting point is 01:12:47 So I mean, all the rules. And they might not even recognize this as being alive. It's your show up to be like, what the fuck is this thing? Get it off here. Okay, there. Now we go. Now we get the planet. Yeah, look at this waste.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Is there some kind of fungus? Let me wipe it off. There it goes. Okay. Now we're good. I mean, we showed up on a planet and they had like the equivalent of like what we thought were cows, you know, I mean, on the planet. Because like, wow, these we're good. I mean we showed up on a planet and they had like the equivalent of like what we thought were cows You know, I mean on the Why do these things are delicious? Yeah, we went spend time trying to figure out if they were sentient we might be their aliens we might but if we come into a new planet
Starting point is 01:13:14 And there's creatures on the planet that we can see Hopefully we're not just gonna eat them We're just gonna be out well I need it. I need to And We're just gonna be out well I need it And this alien thing I just need to put it in me also From experience like if these are if like the city's civilization that's met multiple Got a multiple new planet see multiple forms of life and through experience they've learned It's just gonna be a pain in the ass I know how this goes
Starting point is 01:13:43 My technology they're just gonna try to use it to kill me emailing me. Yeah, let's just get rid of them That's just not even bother me It's something I'll be like yeah, that's why don't we cure some disease for these humans You know, why don't we give him some technology like built? Don't you remember the alphans? You know, we gave them on that shit and look what I did. I didn't fucking care They didn't kill him will just be like a line item on some alien actuary table It's just like get rid of the so we get rid of the life on that planet. All right done. All right. Let's take Let's take the big magnetic rock and Canada
Starting point is 01:14:11 It's a kind of assumption where it's basically like the assumption made it was like if something is powerful Well, it's just gonna crush everything else. There's no benevolent. There's no like powerful That is gonna care. Mm-hmm. Okay, aliens are show that's like this planet is three cores water You know, I mean we have the waters the most amazing chemical in the universe, you know Like possible in my We Like I saw this this image on red at the other day It's like they took the earth and they showed a picture of it with all the water removed and they showed it in space and they showed like a ball next to it showing
Starting point is 01:14:47 all the water on earth and it was tiny and then they showed a ball extent showing all the fresh water on earth which is even smaller and the top comment to that was let's shit in that smallest sphere. I just ridiculous. And Joe I mean you wonder if we would like we found an animal on another planet that was living What do we eat it? I'd say we would eat some of them name us. We know we certainly want to eat it name a single animal on this planet We haven't eaten we've eaten every animal if I know which animals are poisonous because we Wonder about that sometimes that when you see like a weird looking fruit or a weird looking animal, and you think about like, yeah, who was the first time a human encountered this? And it was like, I'm going to try to eat this.
Starting point is 01:15:33 Do you eat? Let's say this works. If your whole job all day was just finding food, like, in the early days of not civilization, but pre-civilization, you're either going to starve or die of, you know, we poison. And how many people ate like the poisonous fruit poisonous fruit before we got around to everyone? Don't eat that one. Right, well that's what they have colors, right? Why do animals know that don't eat that frog?
Starting point is 01:15:52 Because that frog will kill you. Right. There's just like Lake in Australia where it's like this frog and the snake have been evolving all these years and the frog keeps getting more and more venomous and the snake keeps getting more and more like having the ability to swallow venomous things and live You know, it's like this battle this war of like I'm just gonna get more tolerance poison And so like this frog is like one of the most point of this thing you look at it you die Like the spaceship and skyline
Starting point is 01:16:21 It's like it's like an arms race in the animal kingdom. Yeah, and no doubt I will run across I'm wrong. Hey, um, yeah, and by the way, just so we're under the right context, because Bernie gave me, gave this a whole bad framing, but I love Australia. And I love Australians. I don't love 17 hour plane rides. No, no, no, just, just, we have a context like once I get to Australia, I'm not going to want to no, just we have a context like once I get to Australia I'm not gonna want to leave because I'm not gonna want to get on the plane to do something other 17 hour so it's not You're gonna hang out with a bar to the state. I want anyone to have the impression like I love Australia and Australians
Starting point is 01:16:56 And probably I won't come back because I won't want to fly for 17 hour. You won't come back to Australia's way, so You're in New Zealand. They had heard New Zealand cross the more people in cheap line recently more people than cheap that's like the price to hurt each ratio for a country yeah invest yeah so you buy where are they on the parabolic curve now I'm not sure I just I heard like a year their PS ratio is off the chart yeah it's like yeah New Zealand is an interesting country because they're so protected ecologically.
Starting point is 01:17:25 We were in the airport there and there was a dog walking around, you know, one of the cops. And you think in America, you see that you think they're sniffing for drugs. This dog sniffs for fruit and vegetables. Which was like most dogs sniff for food. I mean, it's just a dog probably. Wow, this dog is also a biting food. That's a kind of a deterrent dog, though.
Starting point is 01:17:47 But, yeah, they won't let you bring anything in. New Zealand didn't have any spiders. I want to say snakes. New Zealand doesn't have any snakes. Oh, really? And so, that play sounds awesome. No snakes at all. Where is Australia has every snake?
Starting point is 01:17:59 Every snake? Yeah, mega snakes. I'm pulling the brand in here, you know. One time we went to New Zealand, I remember there was this dude he said there was the dog walking around sticking everyone's luggage and we're waiting for our bags and this dude pulls his bag off the luggage and immediately the dog makes a b-line for him and like you know it stares at his suitcase and it sits down. So the officer with him is like, so I need to go through your luggage. Guys are like, okay, so they sit there and they pull everything out of this guy's bag and they look and there's nothing in there. So the officer officers like, all right, sorry to convene into the guy's like, it's okay.
Starting point is 01:18:27 He's like kind of grumbling and he puts all this stuff back in the suitcase, zips up the suitcase, and I'm not shitting you. As soon as he zips up the suitcase, a second dog makes a B-line, comes through his bag and sits down immediately. He's like, sorry, I need to go through that. He's like, but the guy just went through it, like, sir, don't get argumentative. We need to look through your bag and he made him empty again and go through the second time. Wow. Yeah, so don't get argumentative. We need to look through your bag, and you made him empty again and go through the second time. Wow. Yeah, so don't find anything to say. The second time, didn't find anything to gain. You think they would coordinate their efforts a little bit,
Starting point is 01:18:51 but right. So don't take any plans in your luggage when you go down there. Apparently New Zealand has no land snakes. They only have sea snakes. That's worse. Well, yeah, but you know, snakes are longer. They sound or no. They don't get your bed, you know
Starting point is 01:19:05 Business snakes that are only capable of swimming thousands of miles in the ocean. It's every final land Have you guys this is a weird offshoot of Austin hitting Bucking 90 days this year over a hundred degrees. We shattered like some hundred-year-old record and a weird offshoot is that of that is Now that the temperature is coming down snake snake activities way up. Because all the snakes were hiding, it's too hot for fucking snakes. Eraddle snakes. I mean, rattlesnakes are like, if you draw a desert, you put a their rattlesnake in it to indicate this is a desert. But our snakes were hiding, because it was so fucking hot and all else didn't. Now they're out because they're, you
Starting point is 01:19:41 know, they do snakes hibernate, I don't know what they were doing, but they're like, their activities way up. So there's all these warnings about. They put on their bathing suits and go down to bar and springs. They come back with their luggage. Or now, snake luggage. No, snakes do hybridate. They have dens that they live in underground.
Starting point is 01:19:57 You have a snake dens that they wait in when it's cold. You never want to just go on that. Yeah, because since they're cold-blooded creatures, they can't deal with temperature swings. You don't want to discover it because the act of discovery is reciprocal. It's like, it discovers you at the same time. When you put your hand in, it's like,
Starting point is 01:20:13 wow, we're both discovering one another here. It's like that scene, actually, in a true grit. There's a scene where they discover a rattlesnake. Yeah, this is like the worst thing ever, right? Yeah, don't go in there. That's like a gateway to hell right You can go far enough down and that you'll reach hell and the big devil going touchy-pass all the snakes And you know I don't know if you know this but baby snakes are much more dangerous than adults nice
Starting point is 01:20:39 That they're more venomous. Did you know that no? Is it like more concentrated venom? They're more conscious and they don't use So if you come across a baby snake it probably hasn't bitten anything either Once again, you're laughing at cherry. I will refer to the internet here I will refer to the internet to make sure that's true. This is like carry is more dangerous than I've been anybody Same as scorpions smaller the scorpion the more dangerous What the the smaller the pinchers is the rule is that what is yeah? The if the pinchers on a scorpion are small stay away from it It has big pinchers. No, it's fine
Starting point is 01:21:08 Okay, it's like it's almost it's like a weird balance like they they don't need big pinchers if they can kill you Oh, I Think that's the that's the evolutionary terms think it has the way great man. I feel like you're saying pinchers wrong, but you're not It's weird. It's like there's a weird pinchers. Like Chicago. I guess I expect you to say pincers. I don't know why. But it sounds like your emphasis say it again. Pinchers? I don't know. Yeah it's fine. I just I just for some reason feels like you're saying it wrong. It's pretty good. You're paranoid. Baby snakes, bored, venomous. Look at that.
Starting point is 01:21:35 Google auto-complete is verifying for me or or it's either I'm right or it's a commonly held misconception if it auto-completes for you. Yahoo answers has an answer for me. I love Yahoo answers. Yahoo answers has broken Google though. When you try to find an answer to a question, can you just block that? You guys ever found a site that has a...
Starting point is 01:21:56 You can answer related anything. I mean, ever found any success with any of those sites? No. I mean, all it is is like the worst answer is like some guy smarting off about what the you know there's nothing helpful. Yeah. Oh. Yahoo! Anxious as I was wrong. It was a commonly held misconception. Oh, there you go. Yeah you can do an advanced query. I think where you exclude certain domains from your search. This is a site I trust. This is a herpetologist forum somewhere.
Starting point is 01:22:24 I don't even know what a herpetologist is Let's get study snakes and lizards and turtles. Okay, I would trust that then and then having parentheses also frogs and This is a Epipian Well, that wasn't meant like a point of contention somebody goes put the goddamn frogs down We gotta keep some street cred We're not gonna throw in the fucking salamanders. Myth, our baby snakes more poisons than an adult snake.
Starting point is 01:22:49 I've heard this from several non-herp people. That's right. That's right. Venomestakes are no more toxic as babies as they are as adults. It is true as babies they are just on to control the flow of venom. When needed, it doesn't make them more dangerous than the adults. Okay, so I cracked. You learned something. I did did we all learned we're gonna
Starting point is 01:23:07 We're gonna reclassify another nature Category scorpion thing those that true. That's okay. Okay. I'm a non-herp I only know so much about snakes and also A little bit is that how you would how you'd say a parenthesis? Yeah, it's like it's an air quotes like air parentheses You're like encapsulated with your hands. We're talking lizards. We're talking snakes turtles That's our official emphasis local emphasis for parentheses All right, with brackets. I'd have to say like it's our if it was brackets I'd have to say like computer colleagues and elementers
Starting point is 01:23:42 I don't say like Lopez. All right, well, let's wrap this up. We're going along. Please visit HerbsOfArconsod.com, which is our sponsor for this week's podcast.
