Welcome to Sad Boys, a podcast about feelings and other things also. I'm Jarvis. I'm Jordan.

Hello. I just noticed. Hello, I say. I have a little purple stuff on my shirt. Lean. I don't know what that is. It's lean, actually. Crazy Friday night last night.

Yeah, it was pretty crazy. I rubbed my shirt. That's how you drink lean, right? You rub your shirt on it? It's like a soap. We've got a jam-packed special episode of the podcast uh for you today in that it is a regular episode of the podcast it is packed with sort of about the normal amount of stuff the normal amount of stuff jam if you will yeah i like that like we should open that up like every single

episode so that if it's a new listener they're like like, a jam-packed episode. They're like, wow, how lucky am I? Lucky me. Such a jam-packed episode. It's the exact same first 45 seconds, so they think they've accidentally played the same episode every single time. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, thanks. With funniness?

Well, let's get started with a vibe check jordan how's your vibe we're performing a medical vibe check medical vibe check we've lost him yeah oh god that's uh when a fuck boy dies. Yeah. His fit was busted. Sheesh. He's flat sheeshing. He's flat sheeshing. Like getting a Supreme cap and putting it on him. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Wait, what do you say when you put the defibrillator on? Oh, yeah, clear. Clear. They try to iron on a Supreme logo too. Clear! Get those jean shorts off him! Oh god, please. They're trying to wrap him in that drip jacket.

I need a Gucci belt stat. Oh dude, in the coffin in that pose? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's going greyscale. he's going greyscale. He's going greyscale. He's becoming a rest in peace image. Oh, dude. Rip Bozo, man.

Well, speaking of, I mean. Speaking of. Dude. The queen of bozos. Sorry. Wait, something. That's kind of fucked up for me to say. That was fucked up, Travis.

What? I can't hear. I can't hear John's audio at all, but I assume he's smoking on that queen pack. Is that what's happening? You didn't hear me? I'm playing RIP, Bozo. Oh. I actually couldn't hear you.

What? I think Zoom may have cut it out oh it was like you can't say that so yeah i mean like i guess we have to address this because it's it's all over the news it's been probably a week and a half two weeks since i guess i guess because of yeah because of release schedule so as of recording this on um september 10th 2022 yesterday the queen died whoa wait what queen elizabeth ii what did you do you little you and jay sheesh sorry my fit went too hard oh my drip is real i mean the queen lived to 96 which is kind of incredible the old bat had her time all right yeah all right everyone this is your domain i uh i do i i do think everyone

has kind of been dunking on the queen and then there's a sect of people that are that are kind of like why is everybody being so disrespectful to the monarch world yeah treating it like the people that are confused as to why people are celebrating pseudo ironically or otherwise or at least like taking the opportunity to talk about how the royal family are the world's most dominant and england's most destructive landlords they are only in or even the world's most destructive landlords it's still the the misnomer that the amount of land they hold and is not occupied monetized used for agriculture anything like that the monarchy is a very destructive force the misnomer that they're good for tourism is literal complete bullshit propaganda not true it is it yeah there's

uh anyway there's plenty of good reasons for it what i think a lot of people that are confused by people that are saying hey yeah rip bozo awesome that the physical embodiment of austerity is like they're taking a hit today that's great the reason people are confused by it is they just think she is the wax model they're just right it's just that right it's like a thing you have it's like uh tourist attraction it's fucking mount rushmore it'd be like if one of the mount rushmore heads fell off and we were just like hell yeah that's what people think the queen is as opposed to like an actual human being that right promotes and and and tolerates racist abuse and pedophilia yeah and also just

like has upheld sort of a uh hyper exploitative exploitative system that is like responsible for millions of deaths yes um and and trillions of dollars of theft from other countries and they've they've pulled the ultimate cat burglar escape where it's just through like they've gone with the uh the obfuscation move the smoke bomb of just like well we're just not going to say it and then it you'll you'll have to stop talking about it i'm just going gonna keep wearing the crap you and you'll be like what about but that you took that you took all those you're like no i didn't do that so no no actually that didn't happen no so i actually you're wrong about yeah it's kind of it's kind of so normalized the sort of concept of colonialism and imperialism like you just have to take it almost for granted. I remember when I was in Hong Kong a couple of years ago, and I was on the train and the

train announcement is British English. And it's like, oh, yeah, Hong Kong was owned by Britain until 1999. You know what I mean? And then it, yeah. And yeah, there's just lots of, I don't know, just so much exploitation. And tolerance. It forces, it's a trolley problem, right? Where you can say, well, that's what people would say, she has no power she absolutely does have power she has the ability to like veto legal legislature which means i don't like kind of letting things rocket ship into your house doesn't mean i couldn't right like i yeah i

have a gun it's like it's safe she doesn't isn't doesn't have a gun he's right right yeah i think that's a very good good point because people are like oh it's just a figurehead with no power but it's like she can do stuff and kind of just like let a lot of bad things happen for 70 years yeah you know what i mean well that's what i mean it's a it's a trolley problem you're just as culpable if you have great power great responsibility right and there has been no meaningful the no oh my, the number of articles I've seen. There's one that literally, it's from... It's from an LGBT alliance magazine. And it is...

Not the LGBT alliance hate group. Oh! Oh, I think I saw this. The Queen has been a long-time silent... Quiet supporter. Quiet supporter, yeah. I saw this. The queen has been a long time silent, quiet supporter. Quiet supporter, yeah. Very fucking quiet. Simultaneously was reportedly told Princess Diana not to sort of speak on HIV. Oh, yeah. sort of speaking on like um speaking in advocacy of care for people with hiv and kind of destigmatizing

um hiv at a time when it was a um terminal illness and i think she like like reportedly said like she should focus on less i don't even know like less controversial subjects or something like that that's kind of the vibe that's the i mean there's no better example of how they just doing nothing for long enough if you're not in danger if you can't lose your personhood by doing nothing because that's the threat of most like let's say for example that you are in if you're in legal hot water right you've been caught i don't know evading taxes or something or i guess something more simple um you you would you would drink driving right b and you crashed into a business in court you are at risk we are all at risk at all times of losing personhood whether it's going to jail being bankrupted being uh put in like such a position of debt that we're

effectively bankrupted like you're always at risk of having your status as an what you could be a normal person revoked from you by the state. When you're at that level of power, you don't. You just don't. You cannot be at that kind of risk. So when, for example, Andrew, I don't sweat Andrew is just 100% confirmed to be a pedophile. Yeah.

You have no obligation to do anything about it because all you have to do is stand back and just be like i don't want to do that because they're not going to send you to jail you're not going to lose your job you're not going to be any any kind of financial uh pushback and part of that is this very very effective propaganda campaign over generations and generations which somehow even the conservative american right is on board with the monarchy somehow now fucking libertarians like the queen somehow that's your whole shit there's no bigger government than the queen also it's like liking disliking the the monarchy is like a one of the oldest american concepts the thing that you are might say it's the the only defining american characteristic

it's the you guys like it so much that it created the president yeah he was so into it that it made what president is it's like it's just like a sign of the times and how like wild like yeah it's like not about it's like team sports rather than like being about like any sort of um integrity yeah sure i mean well that's the um you know to to throw some shit at the other side as well it that those like the aesthetics and the optics of your reaction to stuff like this is all libs care about like the lib people that are confused by the way lib is not a leftist oh yeah people are confused about that people i've said this stuff before people like um so you love libs of tiktok it's like no conservatives think that leftists are liberal it's okay yeah yeah they do yeah yeah libs love uh uh joe biden lives yeah thinks uh joe biden's awesome that

hillary did nothing and that um and i think like i think that a liberal is a lot more sort of puts a lot of trust in the existing systems a liberal wants to be convenient yeah yeah yeah it upsets them but they also um don't want to annoy their followers by saying something overly controversial or yeah it's too safe too too safe to be productive they don't want to pay more taxes they want their taxes to go to other things yeah and pay the exact same amount uh yeah but yeah there's like uh anyway um the whole lib thing is indulging in aesthetics right so it's like seeing this happen and then seeing the queen die and then responding. Have you ever thought, the ultimate, she, an incredible woman, a remarkable woman with quite the history.

And she did the whole thing she was supposed to for the whole time. And she was there, wasn't she? And if there's anything you can't say about her, it's that she didn't show up to be the queen for the whole time she was alive. For like a while. Like a long time, and then wasn't doing it anymore. You gotta give it to her, she was rich and powerful for a long time. She was born into that really well. When she came out, came out of that other other woman she was just there and and now there's

gonna be a king so we're we're rebuilding a glass ceiling that that queen freaking broke through oh i see girl bosses can only go so far can they okay interesting no it's gonna be a man that's allowing racist uh legislature to block people of problematic that old age is so sexist. Yeah, not a good look, chief. But then the moment that they- it gets like, floated to the surface, that actually, no, everything we're making fun of is actually bad. But then all of a sudden there's the lib aesthetic flip to, um, she was a colonizer! And it's like, okay, well, do you have any principles?

You know what I mean? Yeah. Did you- when did you learn about the queen how recent was this and the truth is yeah no the massive history of colonization massive history of upholding austerity which is basically the most damaging thing you can do in the uk uh being incredibly complacent allowing uh well conservatives in the 70s onwards especially through till new labor came along which is just a reskinned version of it is biden it's moderate right it's dangerous yeah all the way through to just like the labor party rebranded as new labor in

the early 2000s and that was just that's tony blair who yeah okay okay yeah it's just it's uh cosplay they were there in labor cosplay and then pivot that through to um sequential like one labor dub but golden brown is boring and then uh just consecutive conservative w's just not allowing that to happen and a lot with with no endorsement of what the country should or could be and just being like oh well you know if they win i guess just kind of do whatever they want like hey what about that you know apartment building that burned down are you you going to say anything? He's like, yeah, that was bad. Yeah, but why was it bad? What happened, Liz?

You're being loud. Oh, yeah, don't be loud. You're being loud. Did you know I own all these birds? It's about the tone. Sorry. Yeah. It's the wee-oo-wee-oo.

The tone police are here here you're breaking the rules yeah rude i do it's like you can't be right and loud exactly model model behavior yeah you raise a good point but you you actually peaked over negative three decibels while you were doing it so yeah it's the equivalent of calling out somebody's typo in an argument on Twitter. Like, erm. Yeah, no, it is. It is, yeah. I think you'll find... I think that's what the grammar style guide of Strunk and White would call a comma splice.

Erm, cringe, buddy, not a good look. Anyway, no, slavery should be back. Yeah, slavery's back on a technicality. Use a semicolon instead of a colon yeah looking going through the uh uh doing like um that little looking for that little green grammar underline in the constitution like scanning through it oh yeah got him got him

so much for an amendment amend this they're not gonna like this they didn't capitalize a proper noun one shout out i will give to that is it's very funny to me how because i i was back in the uk during covid right slightly past like which is over as we know it's like wait wait sorry let me check my clock oh yeah slightly past covid yeah slightly past covid it's completely over nobody gets it anymore um yeah just stop talking about it stop shouting you're being rude uh there is a it's so amazing to me that while while i was here i the british don't really like co do anything cohesively really like kind of silently you silently acknowledge stuff but you never there's so little banding together and it is so funny to me the most cohesive opinion i've

ever had anyone in england have was boris johnson has to go not just not because of all the incredibly abhorrent shit he's done but because he broke the rules of social decorum you said you weren't going to go to a party and yet you went to the party that's against the rules imagine if that was like any american head of state yeah there was like getting in trouble for well you drove over the speed limit and now you go to hell i mean i don't like i you know i don't know how many people who are listening to this remember this but like uh obama who's a lib obama uh wore a tan suit one time uh in like 2009 or something and you would have thought it was the worst fucking thing you would have thought he like declared war on puppies you know yeah he like drone struck an orphanage yeah and then dark

brandon actually like he he wore a tan suit at some point and people were like is that a reference is that a callback because nobody got mad at dark brandon's uh dark brandon's um tan suit is that like is this like marvel easter egg it's and i don't know why we we've been having the politics corner lately i don't know you know it's just so it goes but it's always like the world is ablaze it's almost like the world is on fire um and only dark brandon can save us but the uh the decorum thing is like what people are getting mad at like all of the conservative people like the talking heads like um ben shapiro at all were like this is the most defiant divisive speech ever given by a president because he said uh storming the capitol was bad or whatever some people are

he was so generous like there are some mega republicans i'm not gonna Like, there are some MAGA Republicans. I'm not going to say who. There are some MAGA Republicans that maybe it's not that good that they're around. And they're like, he said that every Republican or anybody that's ever worn a red baseball cap should be put in that big machine that makes horses into glue. Yeah. And then they were like, also, he had a red background. And that was kind of spooky that was oh i mean yeah but this is exactly this is what uh dumb people that want to be smart

default to is always just like visuals and decorum and aesthetics and yeah it's why they always think there's look at the shape of that shadow is kind of in a pentagram so it's like why would they give you a clue why would this the secret cabal that's running america that you're you're trying to tell me exists and it's like you're trying to convince me a pizza gate by saying that they left an easter egg somewhere why would they do that what are you talking about what he did the red background because he evil that's like a baby's brain i mean speaking of a baby's brain uh d Portnoy, the Barstool Sports guy, he literally posted a video, which here's the thing. You didn't have to do that.

He was like, I didn't even watch the speech, but I think we could all see that he looks like Hitler. And that's, I mean, come on. Come on, guys. I didn't listen to anything that was said, but. It was like, wait, so what the, you don't like the, it was also like a red, white, and blue. Yeah. Just like.

Just in frame. It was just in frame was the red. And, you know, whatever, even if it was on purpose, it's just like so funny to be like i the substance no sorry all about the aesthetic for me yeah he was saying stuff i thought it was just a big picture if it was a big picture and they wrote at the top uh if you've ever been to a nascar rally we're allowed to put you in an old style trebuchet and fire you into the ocean oh no brandon so anyway everything's fine um and guess what the monarchy is still around yeah don't worry in fact don't worry guys don't worry there's a new king in town this is the

only fun we get to have everybody that's like this is so disrespectful be like this is it this is the only celebration we get and then it just goes back to exactly what it was before also you're not losing anything when i die please disrespect go off go please if i did bad go ahead clown every bad thing i ever did i'm dead i don't care couldn't give less of a shit yeah i it that that reverence thing too is like well that only happens when it's someone you'd like yeah it's all of a sudden there's so much reverence for the dead the moment somebody had a ideology that you aligned with and then somebody else or like i don't know like uh uh uh ben shapiro gets a cold and if you make fun of him you're you're like a war profiteer or whatever

yeah yeah and then uh I don't know like um one of the staff members of uh what the fuck uh Sam Seder like Sam Seder gets hit by a truck and everybody's like awesome roadkill yeah he's a raccoon look like yeah that's been crushed by a truck yeah there's no there's no consistency or integrity it's it's all i mean it's just team sports um but in other news sports let's talk welcome to the sports corner now these guys know what they're talking about all right so sports corner um today i actually watched a sport what the hell um yeah so i for those of you who know my background i'm from a college town in florida known as gainesville home of the gators go gators so um i grew up watching tons of college football and basketball

and uh when i moved i went to georgia tech and ge and Georgia Tech had a D1 football team, and I went to every – like, I went to almost all the home games. Go Gators. Go Jackets. And then I – like, kind of when I was out of school, I, like, wasn't following anything as much, and I've been kind of having to hanker in to, like, watch a sport because i also football is a game that i would never allow my children to play um because i think cte is very bad and i think that it's wild that the sport exists however um it is fun to watch and i do think it's an interesting game uh and today uh alabama the kind of best team like ever to exist in college basketball, basketball, college football, like they have had a dynasty that's lasted since like 2007, essentially of them basically like winning tons and tons of national championships, like not all of them, but Alabama National Championships since 2007. 2007 is when Nick Saban, the coach, joined.

So they've won six national titles, which is insane. Yeah, and then eight conference titles. And then they've just won. I wonder. Yeah, there's a Wikipedia page for page for alabama crimson tide under nick saban uh yeah i'm wondering if um but he will probably go down as one of if not the best like i actually can't say that because i'm like not super oh okay he has the most national titles of all time so there you go uh at one school uh but he will probably go down as one of the best if not the best uh college football coach of all time

and one of the like most dominant college football dynasties of all time um and uh just i also need to say this we should be playing college players we should be paying them they should yeah that would be good working for nothing and uh making millions of dollars for university nick savin gets paid uh a ton oh do you think he gets paid do you think he receives a salary uh yeah a salary of 11.7 million dollars and his eight-year contract is worth 93.6 million. Meanwhile, kids get in trouble for signing stuff, you know. But they're not as good a class they don't want to go to. Yeah, that's true. That's true.

So I watched a little, I, you know, had to acknowledge that, you know, there are problems in the system, but we all, we all like a little sports here and there. The, so Alabama number one alabama number one seed currently number one seed so they're like it's we're two games into the season but they're the highest ranked in the country they were playing texas university of texas longhorns billhorns um and then alabama crimson tide roll tide i guess is what you say if you're a fan of them go red uh texas uh nearly won nearly upset the goats because um their defense was incredible and they did this with like their starting quarterback got injured immediately and was out of the game and their backup quarterback got injured and was limping the entire game it was

like kind of ridiculous like it was like they they didn't want to put in the third or fourth string guy so they just had this dude who was literally hobbling like can't feel good as the third oh yeah to see a corpse yeah yeah you're like dude um but it was an entertaining game it was entertaining because like down to the last i like didn't have a um i didn't have a horse in the race but anytime you're looking at like a national i think at halftime i saw some tweets that were like i want to see nick saban's uh so at halftime they were tied 10 10 and there was a lot of tweets that are like i want to see nick saban's halftime speech i bet it's crazy because they're like we're tied with like this team that's not even ranked so texas isn't even ranked. I bet it's crazy. Cause they're like, we're tied with like this team. It's not even ranked.

So Texas isn't even ranked. It's a, it's a well-known program. So they're capable of great things. And the coach at a university of Texas actually worked under Nick Saban. Cause he's, you know, had a 15 year career of being the best.

And so everybody who works under him ends up getting hired out from under him because they're like, we want a piece of that like talent. And yeah, it was cool. I mean, like shout out to college sports players. They're really giving it.

They're all out there. And I am so much older than them now. And that makes me feel like I'm about to die. It is sometimes almost comforting to know that we're past our physical prime. Yeah. Or, you know, well well they don't count me out yeah i will say physical prime capacity yeah like the maximum version of the maximum version of the physical like if you were training as a pro athlete you know we would be like past your prime i mean not me obviously i would be able to do it yeah

yeah well you know i'm hoping to grow another arm and a leg and that way i can like run extra fast and be extra strong well i was thinking all i'm gonna do is get um my knees uh and back replaced entirely and then otherwise right ready to roll right because you're you know other than that you're in the peak you're the peak physical specimen oh my god with the exception of my cardio i'm fucking i'm out of control with the exception of my cardio my bones and muscles i'm fucking ready to go and by the way the sports corner was a bit but it just so happened that i watched football today so there we go i'm i'm very jealous i i want to have a... So, like, you know, I've been to a few...

I was about to call it a tailgater. Ah, yeah, tailgate. Go tailgaters. I've been to a few tailgates. I enjoy them. I like how much... I like the collective energy and excitement. I think that's really nice.

And it reminds me of when I was a little kid and excitement. I think that's really nice. And it reminds me of when I was a little kid and I really liked wrestling. I like the encyclopedic knowledge you can get from some people and how enthusiastic some people are about it. And I think it's a nice outlet for a certain type of entertainment, right? It's nice to bridge. It's nice to indulge in conflict content without having to do it without needing to argue on twitter which i also do but it's just i don't know it's nice to go to a low-stakes environment

and and have a bigger more complex and history version of a medieval times joust you know what i mean yeah i i will say it's like very fun to kind of even momentarily because I do this with Smash like melee sets or whatever where I'll go on like a tournament Riptide is happening today and I'm also watching that. And I will like go into Twitch chat on like one of the like BTS Smash or like a VG bootcamp, um, which are Twitch channels that I have a bunch of channel points cause I've watched them so much. And then I'm wagering my channel points on each individual match. And I get super into it cause I'm like, you know, it, I'm winning imaginary points, but the fun of placing your stakes in something and like seeing an outcome is thrilling, regardless of what the actual thing is.

If it's, you know, it's probably why gambling is so, you know, addictive and stuff like that, but this feels like a little bit more productive because you can have the shared experience. Like I love, I would love to have, if I had a friend who was really into football and was inviting me over for the big game every week, I would go, but i'm not the type of person to like plan that you know what i mean because i don't have any allegiances really um that's that's the only barrier for me is like so

i obviously don't have anywhere i don't have any american football teams from where i'm from yeah like a lot of i can't default to that as a support i didn't grow up uh so like if somebody asked me what football team which is now called soccer because the queen died uh what soccer team i support here or back in the uk i would probably just say liverpool because what i was told when i was growing up right i'm a lapsed catholic you know what i mean yeah yeah exactly and i imagine that a lot of people have that if not for their regional team for at least like a team a state team maybe if not yeah they have an attachment to i that i feel like would be a great in as well what i bet what i

benefited from is that i watched wwe that's sick though uh my my uncle he was big time into it oh like my godfather and we would just watch the shit out of it develop this lexicon of all this these historical references and stuff i'm like eight years old but i get this encyclopedic knowledge of uh every wrestler their time in the game their signature moves their win loss stuff like that because it's like a fun narrative to follow granted you know it's it's pretty planned it's scripted or it's like loosely structured at the very least but it was that same little satisfaction it was that same uh well actually you'll see that when um when steve rogers caught um you'll actually find that in age of ultron he

moves it slightly during like it was yeah it's just one of those and i really wish i had that foundation because a part of me wants to get back into wrestling but that's it's all a whole fucking thing and you have to be so actively involved yeah yeah part of it's like an active soap opera yeah exactly and yeah i miss i miss two months i'm gone right it's over i can't summarize that the way i could just like tournament scores just go like okay i'm up to it yeah yeah but if i could write no exactly like it's the big game tonight fellas we're all we're all meeting up bring some snacks i love i think that the cool thing about all of this is the same with wrestling the same with melee tournaments

the same with football this is the storyline yes because i'm not tuning in to a blowout if you know it's like i don't care to watch the most winningest team in college football win again you know what i mean i'm tuning in for the potential to see an upset or the potential to see uh you know an interesting story develop um it's why rocky has like flaws and things he's struggling with it's not like let's follow rocky up to his 15th match and he wins again right exactly yeah like um in uh well i was gonna say in melee like um one of the big storylines is like you know there's jmook there's this new like i mean it's one of those things where it's like you grind for many years to be an overnight success like he's like been around for a long time yeah it's like there's

this new guy on the scene that's been playing for 15 years yeah yeah exactly and so like now he's he's like basically gotten a top eight like every tournament he's entered and he has wins over every major player um that's what's fun about the fgc or like fighting games in general is that there is not a physical prime in the same way that can be for your reaction time and stuff but there are like many of the best players like many of the best tekken players are still the best tech players yeah they are just and um like the fact that daigo is like still in like top eights at evo like that's so awesome um and the fact that mango is the oldest youngest and oldest player to win a melee major yeah is incredible um he's yeah he became a father like

yeah he literally did his in the middle too like he's been playing melee for like 20 years and his kids like 10 you know what i mean um and yet no jay mook hasn't won a major yet so every major it's like is this going to be the one you know what i mean yeah um because he's that good uh saturday another 20 uh riptide it's got ultimate and melee other storylines hbox who is uh you know hungerbox went to university of florida go gators he did um he did yeah yeah so we have a connection there um but he uh you know used to be well for for a couple years he was the unadulterated number one like 2017 to 2019 or whatever and then um he's like during the covid era and during online tournaments he like really fell off um and lost to a bunch of like unranked players and stuff on slippy like on

on the online and then now he's like gotten back into form and he's you know when he's won two majors already this year he's like taking sets off of everybody he's winning a ton and then he's also doing his like little ultimate his stream is just him entering ultimate tournaments and running ultimate tournaments and he's in the top 48 uh of riptide for ultimate which is like his highest it's his first time making it to sunday at an ultimate major is he playing so he's ultimate yeah he is which is insane that's which is insane remarkable yeah there is a there is a better puff than him named base mage um but it the fact that it's the same character and his brain still can process yeah it's two different games and it feels completely different i don't

know how you play both yeah so i that's that's cool too like um and people hate hungry box but i don't i i think i like i like his role in the sort of storyline of everything he's like the heel or whatever um and speaking of wrestling to to your point i didn't have a huge background with wrestling but my little brother growing up watched it a lot and i saw enough wrestling that if i saw the undertaker show up at any point it was a holy shit moment you know what i mean i'm like oh these guys are fucked the undertaker just came out of a coffin and he's like he in the he was also buried with a folding chair and now he's like beating somebody over the head i was buried with my dead wife's sledgehammer yeah yeah which

we also call mjolnir yeah uh well i mean that's what's fun about wrestling is that it is like um wrestling's like if the simpsons stayed good forever and now they just had to be coming up with premises that have either never been done or they have to do them better than ever and my favorite type of wrestling narrative every single time is always the it's usually a face it's usually a good guy is the how do we by the way can you describe what a face is for the audience uh yeah a face is like a crowd protagonist it's the one not not just john cena's face right cena is a fae i'd say most wrestlers but he was i think he also had a villain era but he most faces if they're really popular will get a little heel dip sometimes

they'll change names or personas usually not uh the biggest heel turn thing that's where the term heel turn right in this case the most common heel turn move is turning up in turn thing that's where the term heel turn right right in this case the most common heel turn move is turning up in a match that's not yours that's the thing it's like oh and his name is john cena and he just you know turns up and ruining the sanctity of he shows up and he stars in a rom-com with queen you're not supposed to be here right now it's his peacemaker costume yeah i'm filming a scene he's speaking mandarin for some reason he's apologizing that video is crazy yeah video people haven't seen it highly recommend you search

um fast and furious apology john cena is that that one yeah he's apologizing to the nation of china what did he do again um he's apologizing on behalf of something he i could be wrong i think he endorsed hong kong or something oh he did he acknowledged it just yeah or taiwan one of the things he like acknowledged that taiwan was a country or something oh yeah an independent nation yes that's what they in independent nation yeah how dare he how dare he but you know if you're gonna do it do it in fluent mandarin yeah yeah which he knows which is just like a what a funny yeah where do you do what i mean i guess you're listening to that mavis beacon while you're hitting 700 pound reps at breakfast babyavis Beacon teaches typing and also is that not her which one is it yeah maybe

maybe Rosetta Stone yeah Rosetta Beacon Mario teaches also the concept of listening to Mavis Beacon and it being a typing test is very funny trying to to follow along. Where is the G? Is it on the home row? But yeah, there's his whole heel turn. It is like turning up. I don't remember the scene of heel turn. I know there was one at some point. But if you are a heel full time, very exciting.

Because they have to also make you interesting. Which is difficult when you're like a Saturday morning cartoon cartoon villain yeah yeah i'm falling apart villain nathan villain uh because like uh okay so for example my favorite face story or when they're more in like the neutral place is when they bring in somebody new they're a very good technical wrestler because before you enter the wwe you'll have already been in another franchise you've been on nwa or like another related franchise and you'll also have gone to wrestling school for like years and have had to come up with several characters and like there is so much wrestling you do before you get to the wwe yeah you ever see it's the overnight success again.

Exactly. If you see a native Japanese wrestler in the WWE, it means they've been doing Japanese strong style for 25 years. Yeah, yeah. Like, everybody has to be so established that when they come in, it's usually with- It's almost always with the character they already had, and then the writers have to embellish on it.

So the best ones ever, batista had this for a while uh sorry no goldberg had it for a while oh goldberg i remember goldberg awesome they were just like uh okay how do we how do we add some flavor to what is you know the mid-2000s what is just another very large bald man and that's a very smooth man yeah they just went like he'll just win immediately always that's that was the goldberg thing for like eight months was just he would just go in and there'd be a whole build up like goldberg i'm taking you down you you bringing in an attitude and he just hit them and win that was like the thing for ages and i loved that oh the other hilarious uh messy wrestling story is when kane who it turned out was

the undertaker's brother that i believe he he like mountain and the hounded him from game of thrones left him in a burning house or something and so kane had scars so he wore a mask and then one day he took off the mask and he wasn't horrifically scarred it's like excuse me the kane's thing was that he just looked like a member of slipknot his his little arc his little like coming into the the the forefront arc was going into matches and just doing his literally just doing his signature choke slam and winning that was like the thing he would come and be like and it's cane and he would grab him by the neck pick him up throw him down pin it's like a forced choke except for with uh his he's actually making contact it's just a joke he's forcing he's forcing the joke yeah um i just want to uh this is a interruption brief interruption uh cristiano

ronaldo met with jordan peterson oh thank goodness yeah the insights they have i bet this is cristiano ronaldo right uh wait yep that's him yeah um the that's funny because jordan peterson looks like a weird bust like a weird statue he's actually ronaldo's weird bust turned to life yeah he's a wax uh okay so one thing a couple a couple things i wanted to like we went to some interesting places that i wasn't expecting to and that's the sad boys difference um but i wanted to give a quick update on dipper because i've talked about him and people asking about him so uh we got some good news recently so for context dipper was uh attacked at the dog park about six weeks ago and um initially it didn't seem like things were wrong.

Then like that same day, he seemed a little off. We went to the vet. They were like, let's do surgery the next day. So we did that. He got bit in the ear and he got bit in the neck. His neck is healed. His ear, they sort of put a bunch of sutures in to like prevent like sort of things from getting um to the wound till it kind of enclosed the wound and that

like apparently they found out was like preventing it from healing because the tissue is like very um sensitive and so this is the he had the ear. Yeah. So his neck's been healed for a while now, but his ear has just looked like he was bit yesterday, you know? And they took the sutures out finally, because I go to a walk-in clinic right now.

Cause it's like really hard to find a regular vet in LA. Cause a lot of the places are like have wait lists or aren't accepting new clients. But when we finally got to see the original doctor who operated on him, they took out the sutures and then they were like, okay we're gonna wrap him in this giant bandage. And I don't have my other phone with me or I don't have my other phone with me um or i don't have my phone with me that has the photo on it but imagine like imagine like a cast they were almost trying to like wrap it obviously wasn't like whatever you do to a cast to make it hard paper mache or something i assume uh it's a

they like wrapped him and then like have like a little air space where the wound on his ear was exposed to the air because I would help it heal. And then while I was at the vet and they were like, Oh, and let's re up on these antibiotics. So just wait here and we'll get like a new order of those for you. And I was like, cool. And like in the five minutes I'm waiting for them to fill some more antibiotics, he wiggles out of the bandage.

And I'm like, what did you guys expect? And then, and then and then i am picturing like like when like daffy duck gets run over or something is it that one you know it's like a full bandage and his legs up in a little sling it started out like less that but then like when they did it again they were like okay now he's really not gonna wiggle out of this and it was basically that and uh and then when i yeah exactly and then when i got home he already like wiggled out of it i don't know he's supposed to be in it he's what's funny is the hubris of the vet tech was like um bring him back every seven days to change the bandages and i was like i'm gonna have to bring him back every 20 minutes at this point. And then we – the whole point of the bandage was to prevent things from getting to his ear. But I was like, he's wearing his cone.

And so I'm just going to like let it – like I let them know. But I'm like, I'm just going to let this – I'm just going to watch him. And so the past week, he's just been doing normal stuff but we luckily we have the yard now and we can play there and he can get tired out he's sleeping next to me right now um oh let him tell the story he's shy um and but we went to the vet to get vaccines re-up on his vaccines because it's been a year and they were like his ears healing well now so we have like another week um with the cone on but he's like good to go so i feel really happy about that and i'm excited for him to be able to not have to wear this cone yeah been a minute eh it's been a very long time fortunately he doesn't seem to mind it he kind of walks around like he's

not wearing a cone for better or for worse um so he will run into you with the cone he will like be outside playing and be scooping up dirt and you know thankfully it hasn't happened yet but theoretically his own poop he could be scooping up by accident with the cone um and in other dipper news uh i he continues to be like a very smart genius a top g he's a top g uh and the g stands for genius um which is what they won't what's what the mainstream media won't tell you uh we have this like little dog door that's like a big window that like opens up um or i guess it's more like um yeah opens up like that like a saloon door yeah and um he uh it's great because my landlord has a dog as well and so when he lived here his dad installed this ramp so that he could like walk down the ramp and like go to this like little fenced in area where

he can just like potty um and it's great for me because it keeps all of the poops kind of confined to the same area so i can just go through and just like scoop them all up and uh with my cone yeah that i that i wear in solidarity um the uh but i i've been walking in to the kitchen recently where this door is and it's been open and I'm unable to remember if I opened it and left it open or if something else happened. Today I realized – because, okay, because I tried to – like I latched the door and I pushed it like Dipper could potentially push it and it didn't open. And so I was like, how is he getting the door open? Is he like standing up on his hind legs and like, like daintily like unlatching it. Um, and I'm just not seeing it. But today I realized that I walked into the living room. Um, I walked into the living room and saw the door open and I was like, I know that he did this.

And then I tried to recreate it. And I realized if you like, instead of pushing it in one motion, like push it incrementally, like a couple times that it does open without any friction. There's a top latch that you can prevent this with, but I wasn't like latching that um because i didn't realize this was a problem and uh i so i discovered how he was getting the door open and then when i went to look for him he was just like hanging out on the deck outside like smoking a cigarette you know like just like chilling father yeah yeah join me join me no you're going crazy i don't know the door yeah it was very funny you gotta stick some cones on his balls but also good on him for like instead of going to the bathroom inside like just letting himself out and he doesn't know it's like wrong or against the

rules he's just it's not i mean and it's not really against the rules i just uh one thing i want to work on with him is him communicating to me when he needs to go because he's very self-sufficient dog he like wants to handle everything himself right so he will sooner like scratch the door or something then like come to me and like let me know um in the past i've taught him to use a bell so i may reintroduce a bell and see how that works oh that'd be cool a drake bell so to speak yeah or maybe like those like uh those collections of buttons you can get one says like jarvis and another yeah food hug those are scary to me because i feel like it'll be like dad i want I want to kill you. Why do I have these buttons?

Yeah. Who programmed this? That seems bad. He, dipper smoking a cigarette. He's like, ah, you're wondering who programmed the kill button.

Um, sorry, side throwaway joke. Um, a Drake button is a button where when you press it, it goes, yeah. Um,

yeah. Uh, it takes a cast member stranger thing yeah oh god it it says something weird about millie bobby brown um it gets a tattoo of alia who he's never met or didn't have a relationship which is fine at like a lower level of fame, you know what I mean? It's like- Sure. When you could with a phone call make that okay, you don't get it. Yeah. Like if I got it, theoretically. And you're not gonna turn around and show me the to the scale back photo that you got of his head.

Anyway, I just got to head out for a sec. Yeah, you can't turn around. He's wearing a backless shirt. No, my chaps. My back chaps. My backless chaps. It's a onesie, but it's backless. It's just a blanket yeah um oh well okay i gotta run the restroom but boy do we have the follower for the century i know i'm pretty excited about this one

somebody some some you know how like platforms email you to like ask you to be on them you know like somebody would be like hey do you think you want to sign up for Patreon? People weird ass people do that. Some fucking pervert, yeah. Yeah, some emotional pervert may be doing that. And I just got an email about this platform that I don't want to put on blast because it's also advertising them to put them on blast. But it was like, last chance to claim your invite. And I'm like, like no it's not

you know what i mean like hey man i was late to the email um but yeah i would as an influencer like to use your platform uh for free would that be cool like oh yeah no sorry you you missed the boat we don't open these doors for anybody well look who came yeah look what the cat dragged in okay i just won't then yeah forget it then actually oh are you sure because we could um you could sign up if you want to and actually please do and actually please do because that's how we make money actually in fact maybe we're reconsidering this whole expiring offer concept dude i'm just cracking up at the idea of um reply replying to one of those platforms and then the reply is just it's like a slow, it's just the emoji with paragraph breaks.

Well, well, well! Look who it is! Well, well, well. You would like me to take me up on a 15% off offer. Speaking of taking somebody up on an offer... How do we do this? Someone, a particular influencer has made us an offer that he can't refuse that we can't refuse yes and that offer is that he's now streaming on every platform yes and thank and we accept

we accept it because it's not we had no say in the matter we weren't involved but we caught you haunt you you sneaky little devil so um for those of you who are just now um for those of you who don't know what we are referring to last week and you may have seen this um around the time it happened because we did cut it into a highlight and put it up um put it up early ninja the still the most well-known gamer in the world who has had a storied past with various live streaming platforms starting originally on twitch taking a big like paycheck to go to mixer for uh like to exclusively stream there where he by 30 minutes yeah where he did not like sort of translate his audience to this new platform um he was there for a few months and then mixer went under and he was paid out his whole contract so he got the easiest bag of all time and this is no critique on this dog oh this is my god this is a master class like

it feels it it feels genius and in that's the top the way that it yeah that's a top genius um so that's actually like dope as hell i i will i will celebrate any creator who's getting a giant bag from a company for no yeah like this isn't a like mom and pop store this is a venture capital can afford a couple losses like it's oh absolutely yeah it's also like microsoft this isn't even venture capital this is one of the most profitable and wealthy companies in the world so shout outs shout outs bill shout outs bill the um the yeah like it basically cost them nothing but it made him very personally wealthy and um then you know he left mixer and then he came back to twitch where it all began and that brings us to last week where he like something very inconsequential happened in

a game of fortnite and he like flipped out and like quote-unquote rage quit streaming altogether i was re-watching that clip by the way before the highlight went up i was just re-watching it and i'll put talking about it and i was highlight went up i was just re-watching it and our clip talking about it and i was cracking up and i was subscribing uh it is so so weak yeah the the performance is so and i'm not even saying like performance for the the reasons we'll talk a little bit more about like maybe what has more uh i would say nefarious but like it was his deeper goals were but just as a twitch actor which everybody is on twitch to an extent you're like you're like projecting and yeah you're performing a you it's a performance you're entertaining a live audience you know it's not like i don't fucking play i'm such a

it is like uh you know i'm fucking done with this dude i'm fucking you know you know what you know what dude you know what dude i Dane Cook. You know what, dude? I don't even, I don't even, dude. Dude, I think I'm kind of done with this dude. I'm fucking sick of this. Yeah, he brings in full Dane Cook hero. Chat, I'm out. I'm sick of this man.

Chat, honestly, I'm sorry. I know I was going to stream the whole day. But I can't fucking do this anymore, dude. Yeah. It's so like, even for Twitch acting, I don't know if this is a critique of like his performance or not, but if it's him being sneaky, you shoulda done. It feels like the riff thing or whatever,

that moment happening was like not strong enough for the performance he had to give. This was like somebody cutting him off in traffic and being like, I'm just going to fucking kill myself. It's just like energy does not match it at all what yeah it's like such a huge yeah it is because he basically rage quit and and and then also have like a whole pr like package prepared where um something i didn't notice before is that his old banner on twitter said time in and then his new banner said time out oh it was that exact okay i because i wasn't sure if time out was like his

existing be right back panel right right overlay yeah yeah the fact that it oh that is actually sick of it so we learned a few things like so so essentially uh he turned his profile on almost all of his platforms to like a default profile image. And then was like, I don't know when I'm going to be back or where I'm going to be back. And it's very interesting. It's stay tuned to see what stay tuned guys. I'm feeling pretty burned out. Like and subscribe and stay tuned to see when I get over my burnout and when I'm ready to make a healthy return back to work.

Hey, guys, don't forget. Like and subscribe. Hit that bell as well in case I'm able to stabilize my mental health in the near future. And who's to say? Where I'll be stabilizing my mental health in the near future. And so that is what we talked about last week. And, you know, a few days later, well, there's a few more details that we didn't, we're not privy to at the time because we were kind of had just seen the Ninja clip itself. This happened on the one year anniversary of ninja's partner agreement with twitch right so he conveniently rage quits the day that his contract is up which we also know

we we noted right beforehand he didn't have his check mark anymore so he had right he's no longer a partner not even an affiliate because affiliates can have subscribers as well. Because while Twitch recently changed their policy to allow streaming on multiple platforms, there's no longer an exclusivity clause when it comes to streaming platform. There is still a limitation on multi-streaming which is where you stream to multiple platforms at the same time this ends up being important because ninja just announced that he is streaming on every platform platforms i didn't even know existed platform he's from i didn't even know allowed yeah i walked into my he's streaming on your grandma's urn. Yeah, I was heating up my food the other day

and I caught the end of a ninja stream. Instead of the time countdown on my microwave. I was getting sleepy, closed my eyes, inside of my eyelids. What do you know? A guy flossing. In your dreams, he's in your fantasies. The funniest shit, like the graphical image of this is so funny.

I don't even know if... I didn't even know if you could stream on Instagram like that because I thought Instagram limited how long you could be live for. Well, how the hell did he do... Because I saw something along the line... Because I've seen... Like... i saw something along the line because i've seen um like i mean i get i guess you could screencast to the app and then use the app to go live but like his oh like do they support do they support

like uh stream keys and stuff like that yeah exactly yeah i don't actually know in fact i don't think i've seen him go live on instagram for what it's worth um but i have let me tell you in the past couple of days watched him stream on twitter youtube twitch tiktok and facebook in fact earlier today ninja was streaming on tiktok and he was trying to figure it out he was having technical difficulties um because his stream was down and actually shout out to a streamer known as bb jess who i met at um who i met at a twitch event uh who the event was making fun of Ninja. Yeah.

Who happened to capture his live streaming. Oh, fuck yeah. I don't want to keep harping on Ninja, but this got me. How did you have a whole master class for hundreds of dollars teaching people to stream to Twitch, but you don't know that you can stream from OBS? Is that why people are always asking me who set up my settings for me? Oh yeah. Cause she's a woman. RT RT.

Five minutes ago. Okay. That's a roll. It just be this. Well, you didn't get stream laps. How or where else can we, we can't go live any other way. Right. We can do Tik TOK on OBS.

You can go BS. Yeah. You got stream key. You got a RTS and P. lbs we can do tick tock on obs through obs yeah you get stream key you get a rtsmp get an rt rt but we would need we would need to create a whole a vertical thing for it though yeah oh yeah so yeah he didn't know that so this is he uses streaml labs and he didn't know that you could use obs studio um i think chad's real chad's use obs studio also stream labs is uh kind of just stolen a bunch of shit from people it's just a horrible organization and yeah i don't think it's

you have to like uh sacrifice your firstborn if you want to stop your subscription they will find a way like fucking scientologist um oh yeah so they're from like so she was like so this is these are just videos of ninja troubleshooting they're from like 600 you know you can't get in unless we end it we can't change it do they just give you more recommended settings? Yeah. You know what's wild to me? How on God's green earth did you not test this out beforehand? Yeah, this doesn't, because it's not just a rehearsal.

It's, you will have to do it. You will have to set it up. There's no way around make a burner account or talk to tiktok you were the biggest one of the biggest influencers in the space yeah like figure it out before like don't get the equivalent of the mixer deal for free they'll give you a hand um so this whole, I wanted to see if there was another clip. What I personally caught was that he was having lag issues, probably just because there's different bit rates and there's different, you know, settings that you need for each stream platform.

Between what? His reaction camera and the game on TikTok? The stream itself was choppy. Okay. Okay. Yeah. And it kept going down. I saw him live the other day when I was getting my new COVID booster. I was getting that new new. Oh, the one that makes you immune to everything? What the... and uh the one that like uh makes you immune to everything what that's true

yeah no i agree harry styles um it just started playing from one of my tabs for some reason uh but we'll talk about that later because it won't be caught on my actual podcast so um uh but so i caught him when i was getting um my new like when bill gates was putting the nanobots inside of my body to track to every move. And he claimed to have 50,000 viewers across all platforms when he went live yesterday. He had 12K, and these are good numbers, by the way. These are good numbers for anybody. But the math wasn't mapping for me because he um because i i he had like 500 viewers on twitter he had like six he had 1 000 viewers on facebook he had 12 000 viewers on twitch which is an impressive number um he had it's quite a bit

lower than 50 but from what i yeah i'm not i'm not like a numbers guy he had 6 000 viewers on youtube and um i didn't think he was live on tiktok that day or at least i didn't see it oh yeah i had 200 000 yeah but he has millions and millions of followers across all these platforms so i mean my biggest question is i have no idea how he makes money yeah especially yeah yeah wait what it's like the most i mean you still do youtube memberships do they have the same exclusivity you know it's like i guess you could do youtube memberships i don't know if he has that set up he could do tiktok gifs i noticed that when I was watching his stream on TikTok. Oh, actually, let me...

Okay, so this is still open and the live has ended. But he had... I mean, this is pretty impressive. He had 8,000 concurrence at the end on TikTok. He had 380,000 views of his live stream, and you could buy him any number of gifts. I don't know who bought things, but Ninja playing Fortnite on TikTok.

Why is he doing that? Who is going to sit and watch? I guess people do watch TikTok live streams. I don't know who that audience is. I guess it can catch you, you know, catch you on the... I mean, it's certainly interesting. I personally think it's a terrible idea. But as someone who does not need to make money

and can employ people to, like, help him manage all of these streams that are everywhere... Yeah. Then, you know, knock yourself out well i mean i'm i can see the philosophy of him trying it and thinking uh well hey free damage control i'm not culpable for anything it falls apart it falls apart but i don't know what your measurement for success is what exactly do you want to get out of this? Because even long-term,

if somehow you were allowed to multi-stream to everything and Twitch was allowing you to monetize and YouTube was, we don't know how that works in this case, but yeah, they're allowed to also do memberships and they're like, what is, other than like traffic, I guess, what is TikTok bringing?

Yeah, just more impressions, more eyeballs. Yeah. Is that what you're short on? That's my question. Is the goal to be the most, like, the noisiest possible streamer where you're just like everything everywhere all at once? And are you getting more attention? So, like, are you getting more eyeballs on your stream writ large like versus everything right because if they do want eyes then they want people feeding into the ones that make money right are you getting click through

more click through to your twitch stream say in this hypothetical situation where he's allowed to make money are you getting more clicks from that by streaming live on tiktok than you would from like five clips i know so much less work no you don't have to struggle with cropping the video i know it's like yeah yeah you don't have to learn how to use obs yeah it's. He does have a join button on YouTube. And as a side note that has no bearing on anything, Ninja's second channel is called Ninja Extended, and that's such a funny name for a second channel. Oh.

And he's never posted it. That image, though. Oh, this image, yeah. That's haunting. Does he actually post on a Shorts channel, then? He must. No, that's no way his shorts channel doesn't go to his shorts channel dude who is managing this shit that's him um the last thing i wanted to mention about ninja personally

is now i can't skate ninja extended um uh the last thing i personally wanted to mention is that my good friend um and and yugioh uh yugi tuber ruxin 34 uh is a fan of the pod and watched the um the highlight clip that we posted and then then he texted me Ninja's latest thumbnail that dropped five hours ago. Which is this. My final moments. And it's just like... Oh my goodness. Yeah, it's like his final moments on Twitch.

That image implies he was killed by Goku. My final moments. He's charging up a spirit bomb. Yeah, it's like it doesn't have the effect that you would think it had yeah oh wow dude what an interesting choice gaming numbers are so interesting to me yeah like the conversion i just noticed it's very like um gaming numbers are really about what game is hot it seems like uh in whether or not you're hot and they like i'm so grateful to have the audience that i have even though it's much smaller because i feel like they're a little stickier you know i mean the the conversion is and

i'm i'm saying this in acknowledgement that he is incredibly successful elsewhere one of the most conversion is horrible yeah the equivalent would be me having like a view yeah that's true yeah he i mean he is like objectively the most successful streamer of all time yeah you know like if we stop the count today then yeah i mean, and so I don't want to take anything away from him. But it is interesting to like, I think that's part of the reason that it's important to like look at this stuff and see like Ninja the institution versus like Ninja the independent creator. And the translation of somebody like Hasan, right, onto YouTube is way more palatable because he's basically just recording exactly what he would if he was recording it offline but also note worth noting that as a youtube native creator um youtube native content tends to do better than stream-based content um unless you put like a little twang on it like if you use stream as the base but then do more stuff on top of it like a point crow

then youtube stream-based content could be incredibly successful but stream highlights um not oh yeah if not as much the well it's just not getting the click like uh yeah exactly my opinion say you know in theory is um just lying and pretending that you're not recording it on stream and then every now and then when you acknowledge somebody in the chat during one of the videos you get a comment like what who's the what yeah who that's what is this and then that is why yeah shut up what's funny you're pretty much and i and i do this sometimes um as well you're pretty much exactly like um uh phim shapiro uh have you have you seen brett Cooper? Do you know who this is? I do.

The comment section with Brett Cooper. I actually don't want to pull this up outside of... The comment section? I don't know. Oh, that's the name of her thing. Oh, sorry. Her weird show. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Her weird show. Lots of relatable stuff in the background. Where she pretends to be streaming. Yeah. Oh, God. Yeah. Yeah, no. She's the best. Yeah, she pretends to be streaming yeah oh god yeah no she's the best she yeah she

pretends to be streaming um god what an authentic set yeah dude it's just like it's just like i'm just a human being puberty blockers are used once puberty has started but not when you're too far along that That gives you... Actually, I'm going to not invite transphobia. But anyway, yeah, she just pretends to be streaming. And it works from a studio from... What's the name of his company? Daily Wire.

Daily Wire, yeah, yeah. Works from a Daily Wire studio pretending to be in a bedroom streaming, but is actually not talking to anyone. And doesn't sleep oh i want to set this up so this is so this is ninja's video i'll be everywhere where he announced the stream i haven't seen this at all hi guys what's going on i am tyler ninja blevins and I'm going to be live everywhere.

Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, Patreon, maybe OnlyFans. Like those, a lot of those platforms do not support live streaming. Dude, fucking OnlyFans? Fuck yeah, dude. That's my favorite kind of joke, dude. It's a great punchline because the joke is OnlyFans? Fuck yeah, dude. That's my fucking favorite kind of joke, dude. It's a great punchline, because the joke is OnlyFans. The joke is that having an OnlyFans is a joke. Insane to have one and use one.

Like, what the hell? My pronouns are attack helicopter. But we use the exact same flavor of joke. Yeah. OnlyFans? Is that it, by the way? That's it. Okay. Wait, what? joke yeah only fans is that it by the way that's it that was okay wait what he just he instagram why was he recording that in a museum he was recording that yeah it was the most it was the

most he it looks like he recorded this at kanye's gray house have you seen that that house tour of kanye's house it's like all one color um also he looks like my physical trainer you know what i mean like he looks like a personal trainer he's like what's up gang today we're gonna do some jump squats oh you're looking pretty good but change your i'm a little bit move your legs just to the side shoulder width apart yeah you want to make sure to uh engage your core yeah asking you to do stuff that you just don't have the like genetics for get up give me 200 more just 200 just two i'm not asking you to move mountains just 200 more you're dead uh now move this mountain um please uh okay let me go back to the island okay shout out shout out ninja thank you

so much for uh well here's the thing is we don't have concrete proof that he didn't immediately recover from his burnout out of nowhere that's true and honestly that's kind of problematic of us but you know sometimes i know if i'm ever feeling a little burned out or anything the first thing i think to myself is all right i gotta take a break and then never come back to what i was doing and i'm gonna come back and do an announcement of some kind just coincidentally after drawing attention to a platform that was not twitch after everybody had to check out all my socials to keep track of me and i don't know where i'm gonna be when i come back yeah well how many places you know what actually i don't know how many places actually jordan i'm kind of tired

of your shit dude oh sorry kind of tired of your shit dude i do you want to hang out next week on a different i can't fucking do this right now i can't fucking do this right now um i'm i'm gonna go i'm gonna go and i don't know where i'll be next week but maybe it'll be right here same time same place sure yeah and maybe i'll release right here, same time, same place. Sure, yeah. And maybe I'll release the episode on Sunday as usual. Where podcasts are sold, you know, for free. You know, if you want to keep up, maybe, I don't know, like subscribe, hit the bell as well.

Maybe like the video. But I'm really pissed. But I'm freaking burnt, dude. I'm pissed and I'm burnt. I am absolutely sick of this for the normal amount of time we don't do the show in between episodes. Yeah, dude. I think I need exactly six days, 23 hours, and 59 minutes of time away from your fucking face. Okay.

Fine. And we're back, dude. We're back live everywhere. We're fucking back at it, bro. I love it bro i love you i love you my guy dude i'm glad we took that time off my fucking brother at arms anyway that's the show fuck you i don't want to see you again i hate you i'll never fucking see you again uh by which i mean i will see you again in another seven days dude i would dude I would love if every single week he ends his stream. Oh, no, every single day he ends his stream.

He's like, fuck this. I'm fucking sick of this. I don't know where I'll be. And then it's a different one. Where I'll be. And he's like everywhere. He's like, oh, God, today I'm back. I'm back everywhere.

But tomorrow, dude, who fucking knows? You got to follow me everywhere. Damn, dude. And I don't. My merch is available for sale right now. But anything could happen to it warehouse burned down do you do you not to like i mean you know nowadays it's a little passe to be a fan of the office but um there is the american office had a bit where um ryan

had a startup i believe called the wolf yeah where yeah where you get messages on everything you get messages on everything that's kind of what ninja's like entire business model feels like imagine if you are a really engaged fan you follow ninja on everything and you have notice turned on for that reason and then he goes live and your phone gets really hot yeah that was the reason that i that i thought about that because i was like man if you follow ninja on more than one place then every day it's gonna be like boom boom boom you're gonna get like seven ninja notifications you're gonna be like actually i hate this guy god the more i think about it the more it's messing with my brain because i'm like

okay well are you saying that you're going live on YouTube because there's people that would watch the stream on YouTube but don't watch the Twitch or don't have interest in it? Or there's people that love your YouTube videos but don't know about the Twitch? Does he interact with the chat? In what chat does he interact with? Chats. Because there are services like Restream that combine chats. Yeah. But I don't think they allow you to go live every every single place that ninja's live so i don't know how you would you know

he's got like a grid of uh he's got like a control room yeah that's the last scene of watchman chat there's like phones and and uh monitors on the on the wall. There's one small screen with the game on it. And then a bunch of curved monitors that's just chat. He employs that guy who was teaching him about streaming, about OBS, to read the chat. Cause it would take a full-time job to read just that. Slow down.

Everybody stop chatting. Double slow mode every double yeah yeah and that like not every one of these platforms has moderation tools yeah you know it's just it just seems like you are um opening yourself up for attack on multiple fronts it's almost like an experiment like like for our benefit it's like hey here's what happens when you do this bad idea i mean yeah we're gonna learn a lot i think from this um i'm just curious how long he's gonna do it for because my guess is not long it would rule if that was it like he was just done now maybe he's auditioning platforms to see what his next

like where he's going to be taking his talents next. TikTok, man. After that huge dub? Yeah. Yeah, after he finally got it set up, he's like, shit. He's sunk cost fallacies. Like, I guess we're vertical now. Yeah, I'm in.

I've given everything I can to this overlay that's just like two squares. Let's just real quick jump into let's real quick jump into our favorite segment uh jarvis reads the notes on his phone because otherwise he won't do that yes and well i mean even with that help and maybe the comments i don't think we're gonna figure out what they mean um on them just become glyphs okay okay okay so um covid booster uh that was just a reminder to mention that i got the covid booster all right oh and also to say that it was incredibly easy and free and um this is the updated booster that everybody can get now and you're thinking people listening maybe should do that i mean look not medical advice but the the fact that it was so easy to schedule and it was available

everywhere made me think about how people don't take covid seriously anymore and um are probably not gonna to get it. You know what I mean? Yeah, no. Because they're like, what's the point? I also have... I don't even think I've heard a mention of a follow-up booster here. I'm in the UK, though. Yeah, the Bivalent, I think is the name of it.

They can't give the original booster anymore. Now it's just the updated one um firmware update um i've got i'm i've got a guest list for my house warming that i'm planning um i have a note to remind myself that when i feel a twinge during a workout um do a few more reps and get a video and send it uh send it to my doctor my physical therapist that picture of tyler i've got uh a hosting to-do list the things that i need to the things that i need to do um to get i've been i feel like i could host a party now and no one would have a problem but in my head there's a bunch of stuff i still need to do yeah you know i mean like like that's that's the game you know it's setting expectations

for yourself and whiffing yeah yeah exactly so i need to buy carpets uh because my old my carpets that i brought with me kind of don't fit the room dimensions are different like the carpet that's in this room is far too long but i put it down to help with echo do you have any big bits of furniture you don't have yet or is everything kind of no because everything i was able to make use of pretty much everything that i brought over um because i bought sort of all the necessary furniture. I got to buy a new bed frame for the guest room. I had a spare mattress because of a brand deal that I did with a mattress company, but I don't have a bed frame to put it on yet. So I do need to get that.

And then I guess some furniture for the guest room. I'll send you a list of what i want okay uh i need to figure out how the fire pit works there's a fire pit at my new place and i think it'll be cool like in the winter or at night to like do a little fire um i have the phrase he got that dog in him um but in but it's hot dogs and so i need to i need to like photoshop i need to like this is a note to self to like photoshop um somebody like a rib cage you know transparent rib cage image but instead of like puppies that they do for the like he got that dog in a meme it's hot dogs yeah that's okay um when when he when do you think you'll get on that maybe during

the party planning yeah maybe for the flyer okay that's pretty much other than getting back to people and cancelling things that's pretty much pretty much it okay so everyone see if i need notes of value and then i one of them literally just says the prodigal son from a year ago from a year ago that was the last time you took a note uh no it's the last time i uh i've clearly done something in it but oh okay it's been updated

okay inside it just says dmv plan okay how you were taking driving lessons weren't you had a backup oh mate incredible too too good at driving so i failed the test too fast too good but it oh no i had to skip a bunch of lessons because it was when we were initially i did a fast pass whatever this This was seven months ago. And I did all the lessons, six of the eight lessons, six of the eight days, and then I had to

cancel two of them sequentially right before the test because my mum wasn't well and I had to stick around. So that was 16 hours of my course I did not do, which were the 16 hours that covered emergency stops. And I just fully didn't know how to do it because you can only learn and pass on manual here. So it's a whole thing you have to do.

And then before we even got to that part, a van pulled out illegally. This is all tiny country roads where I am doing the test. And I didn't know what the fuck I was going to do. I didn't panic or anything. I just slowed down and pulled to the side. van pulled out illegally on and this is all tiny country roads where i am doing the test and i didn't know what i can do i didn't panic or anything i just like slowed down pulled to the side they didn't tell me what was wrong with that but apparently that was not it and it counts as amazing yeah so i passed on everything except for not knowing what to do with the van that that's actually kind of similar to how i failed my first driving test which is um a car pulled out and i wasn't sure what to do yeah and they were like what do you think you

should do and i was like i don't even know that we've started yet because it was like right immediately like and then they counted as a major they were just like being assholes but whatever there's um i need to do the u.s one setting it up is a pain but i also need to uh take the u.s uh paper whatever it's called is it the one one? The theory test? The written test? The theory test, yeah. It's the theory here. The theory test in the UK is a joke how hard it is. And people who

have done it here and maybe listening are like, it's not that hard. I'm like, okay, you need to understand how easy the US one is. I was doing mock tests on my phone. questions for the US one So the UK one It's literally stuff like Okay if you find somebody injured by the side of the road

In a motorcycle accident Should you move them? And if so where? If they're breathing at like X fucking rate Should you perform a healer? If you are driving on X type of road During this season Into these kind of weather conditions behind this kind of

truck how many how much distance should you maintain in metric like just absurdly specific and probably quite useful for drivers and then i did like i did like eight mock tests in a row on my phone of the u.s one because every question is like yeah if it's red on the traffic light go stop get out of the car cry it's just yeah yeah okay yeah no it's should the wheels be on the top or the bottom of the car yeah that's that's pretty much i took a few tests and then i found a um quizlet that had like the questions and and i studied it in line for the test yeah um i mean it literally should like i don't know why a theory test honestly is not a hundred the same question yeah because i thought about this and i've mentioned it to people they've been like well but then the test would um like yeah we should know all the same

it should be we should know what to do it should be the same it should be in the exact same order every time because you'll memorize it like i don't know why it isn't it's yeah you know school test philosophy 100 but hey man catch me on the road soon enough uh catch me in my whip uh well somebody's whip that'll be borrowing for the test you need to do that come again i need i have to bring my own car here do i need to bring my own car to the us one you do yeah um i took i took um like lessons so i was able to use the driving school's car oh that's right i need you know, I've never driven an automatic. Oh, it's quite easy.

It's a go-kart. Yeah, it's pretty easy. Also, it's kind of ridiculous that you have to learn so much about manual transmissions, considering that we are slowly not manufacturing them anymore. It's literally harder to get it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Most new cars are not available in automatic uh the sales of automatic vehicles have dwindled to like two percent of the the market for cars

of the manual yeah for manual yeah yeah um yeah automatic i'm gonna feel so powerful my left foot's not gonna be doing anything yeah dude my my my left foot just sits on a little elevated foot rest what's it gonna i'm gonna be walking all wonky even wonky than i do right now by default yeah you're gonna walk wonky well that's then you're getting your foot replaced uh with a bionic one that's better with my spine well i'm gonna get my foot replaced with a car just a false car that i ride like oh does the car where does the where do the wheels on the foot car go me and the mock test oh no yeah fuck oh the other thing that makes the uh american test so easy is that if you fail it you can like retake it like multiple times while you're still there yeah like if you get it wrong then yeah you they like tell you what you did wrong and then you can just take it again.

That's what's blocking me lately from doing it. The amount of time it would take for me to get to all the available test centers based on where I am near my mom is, without a car, is like an obscene amount of time commitment. And every time I've tried to book it, it's like, yeah, three months from now. I don't, I fly every six weeks. I don't know where I'm going. This is great. Where as the US one when I was looking into it, apparently I was like,

can I have a test this month while I'm here? And they were like, do you want one like yesterday? I'm just like, I can't do it. I'm in the wrong area right now. But what? It was not like that for a long time. So it's cool to hear that it's like that now it was like because i had crazy scheduling issues but like um when yeah definitely uh

you know some people actually like take it at dmv's like slightly out of town where they're like less crowded and stuff you know what we can though, when I get it and I'm over next? We can drive along. Say I'm heading back to the UK again. Before I go off to LAX, we can drive on parallel roads. Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about. Fast and Furious, yeah. Except we're playing an episode of Sad Boys.

Or like a 1, 2, 3, go video. Yeah, yeah. And See You again starts playing um so before we wrap up before we wrap up for today i think it's important to talk about one of the other most important things that have happened uh to british people quick this week another white guy check white guy check okay white guy report yeah the beer what's up my cracker that's the white that's the white guy report i get banned off twitch somehow for releasing this somehow for releasing this on youtube they find out um how much have you been following the

harry styles chris pine spitting incident that okay first two words i'm with you following two words i'm with you these two independent entities i'm aware of these guys spitting of done and seen uh incident i cause but all of those combined i definitely okay so this is so do you know about the movie um that olivia wilde is directing sorry let me pull up the name of this I think it's called Don't Worry Darling have you heard about the movie Don't Worry Darling

directed by Olivia Wilde starring I believe Chris Pine and Harry Styles I sure do now and Florence Pugh is that the one with Florence Pugh, Demetan, Sidney Chandler yes yep all of them is it the one that the cinemat.m. yes yep all this is the one that's the

cinematography like so good cinematography is by Matthew Liberty are you just looking up the you're just it just sounds like you're just listing now staffers on the project from like googling it on the movie I don't even have Google I don't have Google installed okay well it's a Well, it's a website and you're on the internet. So I think that you could. I don't want to get lost in there. He said, she said, all I know is that the screenplay is by Katie Silverman. Which is something I don't think you would know if you weren't looking at.

Yeah, I can imagine. What happened? So, so there's a bunch of drama around this this movie because they've done a bunch of press um and the press has been weird i i'm not even fully caught up to it but also relevant that olivia wilde and harry styles are dating oh i didn't know that yeah so that's another sort of complicating element to this but I have not been watching white guy news. Yeah. So Harry Styles, I think, is a lead in this movie. And doing the interviews or during the press tour, there have been tons of very weird Harry Styles interview clips. And the main one is this quote. So the camera's on Chris Pine here. You know, my favorite thing about the movie is like, it feels like a movie.

It feels like a real like, you know, go to the film, movie. You know, kind of the reason why you go to watch something on the big screen. You know, my favorite thing about so this became people you know have been clowning harry styles all over harry styles interview like it's been weird because i'm so used to everybody just talking so oh wait here we go my favorite thing about the movie is like it feels so this is the full video my favorite thing about the movie is like

it feels like a movie it feels like a real like you know go to the film movie that you know you kind of the reason why you go to watch something on the big screen i think my favorite thing about them um so yeah and so chris pine's reaction

is fun to watch because if you look at as he's as harry is saying the words that he's saying which and i quote are you know my favorite thing about the movie is that it feels like a movie it feels like a real go to the theater film movie that you know like the reason why you go to watch something on the big screen damn I didn't know you wrote poetry yeah and so uh and so Chris Pine this Chris Pine reaction Chad Chad sent me this and she said look at chris pine's neck okay so i want you to watch this clip and look at chris pine's neck as it it tenses while while harry is saying what he's saying the thing about the movie is like it feels like a like a movie it feels like a real like you know go to the theater of film

movie but you know you kind of the reason to watch something on the big screen you know my so I think he just like tense it right when it started but so there's this and then there's a

there's an award show i gotta find the original thing to show you because because now we've kind of advanced to alternate angles um so this is the original GIF. Or this is just a GIF of the original clip. So Harry sits down. It looks like he spits. Then Chris Pine looks down. It's very hard.

It's very hard to make out. Let me get it in full 4K. Yeah. It has. Let me get it in full 4K. Yeah, yeah. Enhance. But this has been the question that the internet has been trying to get to the bottom of. So there's some alternate angles. then he looks down he's got his hands up that's that it's this uh even more so than his his gaze it's the frozen clap you know what i mean yeah like a yeah deer in the headlights because the thing that just happened is like uh erm okay it's like erm that

just happened and so yeah so he so what they came out with was um chris pine was like looking for his glasses and then he realized that they were just in his lap and sunglasses and that he picks them up between his legs which actually he does picking them up wait but he just put them down there wait a second hold on i don't i don't buy this anymore because like the original answer, the original answer was that Chris Pine was looking for his glasses, but he put his glasses right here. In order to clap? In order to clap and then look down and. He doesn't have object permanence. Yeah.

And then there's this. Wonderful to be back in New York. I just popped very quickly to Venice to spit on Chris Pine. Wonderful to be back. back in New York. I just popped very quickly to Venice to spit on Chris Pine. Well, that's just the meme, right? And now he's just doing the meme. Yeah, people have been coming up with alternate angles. I can't seem to find them. people Chad sent me this video she said you guys really need to talk about if Harry Styles

really spit on Chris Pine or not, parenthesis he did I have evidence and this is what she sent me I think she's the one slowing the video down I have evidence, and this is what she sent me. I think she's the one slowing the video down. Because you can see there's... There's a particle. Oh, yeah, you can see there's a particle coming out of his mouth. Oh, yeah, there's the particle.

Huh. Yeah, enhance. Yeah, chat, chat, enhance. But also, why? Why then, what's he coming back from? Is it a speech performance? Are they just sitting down? I think they're all just sitting down. Why then... What's he coming back from? Is it a speech performance? Are they just sitting down? I think they're all just sitting down. Because he's clapping for something.

I think they're introducing the stars or something like that. Okay. Like going one by one, you know? Right. I think. Wait. What about... Um, wait. What about... Is he looking down at something on the floor and then saying something?

And that's making... Or, would he be referring to his sunglasses? But why would you? Be like, are those your sunglasses on your lap? Oh, did Olivia Wilde shoot him a sharp look let's look no is this i mean i wasn't around during the jfks assassination but this feels very similar she didn't she didn't shoot him a sharp look so anyway yeah this is the question um on the internet's mind i i watched charlie talk about this this week as well um um oh yeah and the um the

Chris the going back to the quote incident that led to every brand jumping on this as the format became our favorite. My favorite thing about Blank is that it is like Blank. Man, I wish that the NFL had said the same thing as Grindr like word for word. Yeah. Call of Duty is here. DreamWorks Animation. Just like a real murderer's row of brands kind of the call of duty one of the bird lazy yeah um so yeah i don't you know i don't know about the

additional analysis i'm always so conflicted about hype like very funny brand tweets like when when it really hits like was it um like jolly ranches or something a couple days ago just said fuck oh it was a wing stop yeah wing stop just hit us with the fuck i'm like that's so funny but do you i know you're just a person i know you're just a community manager and i also want to give you some props but at the same time yeah yeah want to retweet this organization yes exactly these are these are the thoughts that we should be we should all be having oh shit it's playing near me austin don't show what near me is this movie um not that i googled it sorry but oh i just feel like it's really i think you can hear it maybe

um did you want to watch this harry style acting oh god hell yeah so i didn't know the context of what else you were talking about but because you mentioned our people turning on on harry uh it yeah i mean the answer is yeah i think there's like a an apex of fame that you reach where especially if you have a younger audience where the variants could kind of come in pretty quick and then inevitably people are going to learn that you have flaws and that you're probably you're very famous and rich you're probably a piece of shit i mean that's just how it works i mean and you're also fine like you're not going to see any yeah like you're doing okay you'll you'll you'll be just fine uh unless you're just really online

unless for some reason you're the richest person on earth and you're still a poster you know oh like jeff bezos is now apparently jeff bezos has started tweeting this clip was the one that jumped out to me uh just because it was acting related and harry styles related and i kind i i don't know if it's mean to make fun of someone that's trying you know they're trying to act nothing wrong with that but it's mean to make fun of someone that's trying to act. Nothing wrong with that. But it's such a bad take that it must have been the best take. And I don't think you do either.

I think neither of us have any problem with Harry Styles. I think he's very talented. I think he's done a lot with his career. Sorry, I also mean literally the take is bad. Like they should have done it. Oh, yeah, like they should have chosen a different option. This is in the trailer.

So this was what they, I guess, thought was the best option they had for this. Have you seen this? I have, but we should watch it. The thing about being married to... Tell me what I'm supposed to think about it.

Tell me what I'm supposed to think about it. What I'm supposed to think about it what i'm supposed to think about it it sounds like he's doing a fake british accent um there's a couple of these clips let me see if i can find someone did it someone did a super cut oh yeah and if you keep talking like this you can keep. And if you keep talking like this, you're going to get community. And if you keep talking like this, you're going to put it all at risk. You're a bigot of speech. You should know I would never fucking get community.

And if you keep talking like this, you're going to get community. I don't want the other one. I just want to see the other one. I don't know what that is. Me either. one I just want to see me there I will say he is he is doing a different regional accent for whatever reason I guess the character oh the thing the thing I think about this clip is that people are saying he was jumping through a number of different accents like in one in one take so let's watch it

and if you keep talking like this you're gonna put it all at risk you're worried about emotion that's what you're worried about our life oh it's our life together this could lose this not everyone gets this opportunity i i feel like the our life thing does sound like a different voice it is the character maybe supposed to be from the north of england and that's what he because it sounds it could just be like a bad version of that the whole time but he also he's kind of a weird sounding guy he's got that like amalgam he's got like the johnny depp amalgam accent or it's like, where are you from?

Is this...? Yeah. You're saying, because it, I guess just... You're part of so many popular cultures, you kind of have to start blending. You know how Johnny Depp sounds, where he's like, yes, I was recently on a research. Like, are you Bane? Yes! I don't know a thing about being married, so don't tell me what to do!"

It's got that remembering that you have to be emotional in the scene moment, which I enjoy. Where he's just like, Oh yeah, Harry Styles also kissed Nick Kroll, randomly? I don't know the context of this. But the, um, Oh yeah, here's another here's another um harry styles interview clip oh oh how do you say that

in terms of the future i try not to think ahead too much i'm trying to just you know day day at a time type thing. In terms of the future. Oh, this is from the same interview, but it's not the clip I wanted. Wait, is he from the North? I'm confused. Where's Harry Styles from? Oh, he's from Reddit?

He's from Reddit? Yeah, he's from Reddit. He's from Redditdit yeah he's from reddit he's from reddit england interesting yeah i didn't bookmark any of these clips but they were all over my so he's from worcestershire and in worcestershire you might talk about that it's where the source is from so maybe it's like his interview voice is the one he's been doing differently but wait it sounds wrong in the movie

I don't know that movie clip is really I keep thinking about it where he does the tour of the world the crispine the fact that crispine hasn't said a word in this whole narrative too he just got spat on well that's that's actually become a meme as well as the crispine blank stare uh i can't seem to find this clip like because all i see is the response to it where he like he gives an answer that's like not great and then did that was gives an answer that's not great and then but anyway Chris Pine meme this has become the big

meme now it's it's a very funny image he's the cat the neck hit that his little neck flex does make it look like the harry staker hit him like a physical object yeah he's like bracing himself against it i don't know it's i mean this is this is one of my favorite ones me on an important zoom call watching my cat throw up on the sofa

it's so challenging because he is um it it's all speculation right and we we have milliseconds of context but at the same time i can't even begin to guess what he was looking at the floor for if he was looking at the floor i can't guess right why you would look at somebody's groin and say like look at the sunglasses or whatever i just i can't find a better reason yeah i don't know all right i mean it could have just been an accident i don't know why they just didn't say that you know what was the i thought that there was like official responses or something what was the i thought the official response was about the sunglasses yeah chris pine's rep responds to blah blah blah this is a ridiculous story complete fabrication the result of odd online illusion that is clearly

deceiving it's a bit dramatic deceiving and allows for foolish speculation just to be clear harry did not spit on chris prime fine there is nothing but what did he do then chris fine has released a statement calling the harry stops a ridiculous story a complete fabrication you know what that uh fabrication jonathan freaks we made it up oh yeah absolutely your fiction it's fiction it's fiction we made it up we made this one up. We made this one up. It's a made-up tale. It's a total fabrication There we go It never happened this one was invented by a writer not this time it never happened this false It never happened. It's a fake. It's fiction. It's an urban legend that never happened no way we got you

we got you we got you no way jose also john i will do anything for jonathan breaks i love that man so much he's so huge he legitimately is the man that taught me to just step over a chair if it's too small it's just all of next generation he just it's it's actually pretty fucking great because they're all wearing you know skin skin tight light crowdfits and everything yeah and uh breaks his 75 leg so most of the time it's just him towering over them like a golem and you just i think i've seen i think i've seen a super cut of this oh yeah i'm sitting in his chair like a big boy wrecker sits down there he is chad yes

the room should shake that is an ultimate Chad move. The get up. I've never seen him get up from the chair. That's insane. It looks like the footage is reversed. It really does. That is an extremely unnatural way to get out of a chair. And perfect also.

In the exact same arc as well. It finally looks like it's symmetrical. He's perfect. He should walk backwards out of the room. I think also just, uh, everyone says nice things about him, like, I think he's nice to work with and stuff, so. Aged like a fine wine, let me tell ya. Yeah, oh, yeah, absolutely. Uh, and with that... That's three white guys down.

Four! Let's, uh... Tyler. uh and with that that's three white guys down four tyler let's wind up and with that let's wind down this jumbo-sized episode of sad boys with a little pen pals oh the theme song pending uh okay so this is the one i can be based on. There's a few options, but this one felt very relevant to both of us, especially right now. And I also wanted to ask, their name is Art and they asked, Hi Mr. Sad and Mr. Boys, which one's which, in your opinion? Oh! I think you're Mr. Sad and I'm Mr. Boys. I am Mr. Sad, not Mr. Boyz. I think I am Mr. Sad.

That's my Mr. Man character. I also feel like Mr. Sad, but I don't... I think I'm a little bit more Mr. Boyz. You're a little more Boyz. Who knows, man? I mean, maybe we could just be our names. That'd save our time. Actually, no.

I don't know about that. Next time, okay, if you're going to send in a pen pal, what are you going to do? Sad boys pod. I am functionally. Sadboyspod at gmail.com. That's sadboyspod at gmail.com. You can send it in there, and we will read it,

and then maybe say it on here. I'll try and read. I'll fail most likely. If you send that in, go ahead, call zad mr boys again and then in parentheses say which one is which which one you mean i would i would be curious to see the consensus your pod and also your videos sorry my old spine uh your pod and also your videos got me through my senior year of college can people please stop referencing time periods no more no more time stop reminding us and now they're gonna say like and i just uh moved into my sixth house with uh my 14 year old son yeah my son's starting high school soon which is uh funny because he was conceived while listening to one of the early episodes of sound

i think it was the 40th episode it was kind of a recent episode you guys take a lot of breaks yeah your video has got me through my senior year of college and i'm so glad to see it back up again thank you same wow mr sad appreciates that I wanted to send in an advice request because both of you guys seem to have a lot of experience moving. I recently moved to a new state for grad school, and while I like the city I'm in, it's a huge change for me, and I feel really out of place. How can I deal with an entirely new place, especially when that place has a completely different social culture to what I'm used to? Best. R. Completely different social culture. Interesting. it's interesting not knowing the specifics i do have yeah yeah not knowing the specifics is a little tough um but it's a new state so we can imagine they're moving from like

new york city to like chattanooga tennessee you know like some somewhere like are you not enough of a contrast. Like what's the exact phrase he's using? A completely different social culture. So that is like a, hey, yeah, I moved from a small town to a place where everybody's going out every Saturday night. Right. Like we're hanging out in this environment. And I guess they've no longer.

I mean, grad school is like college, right? I don't really know. I'm really understood. Oh, grad school is like college right well I don't really know I'm really understood oh grad school is yes it's so you get like a four at a yeah at a accredited university typically so um you know you'll you'll do you'll end high school at 18 you know 12 12 grades 1 through 12 and then um you do an undergrad degree and the reason that undergrad is it's usually a four-year degree typically um and then post like after undergrad you can do a graduate degree and you can also do post-grad stuff but like um like so yeah you get a you're getting like a master's or a PhD or something like that

Okay. Yeah, that makes sense Masters or maybe you're getting Masters is like one to two years PhD seven years usually or around that time How long do you think it would take to get a PhD in my own podcast Mmm, I could surely I'm allowed to do it like it just one day it's our podcast who knows more about it than us and then i'll write it i'll do my dissertation or whatever but like yeah who's gonna grade it me yeah true i think you found a i think you found a hole in the matrix i've cracked the code Well I guess we can only give broad advice then as far as just moving to

any old new place and it's perfectly reasonable by the way to not want to say where you live Fair yeah Well Yeah I mean it's like adapting to anything else in the case where

whatever creature comforts you know you need and are transferable um like for example when i first moved to a city city when i first moved to san francisco the first thing that stuck out to me was that things sure things are like walkable in sf a lot more than say la but in the towns i'd grown up in my college town everything was so quiet everywhere like you just you're gonna go to the gym you walk to the gym there's barely any roads even there you need to take a break just go sit and one of the billion fields or the seaside that's right next to you it was just you could intuit things a lot more easily just i need to get this feeling so i'm just going to go out and find this feeling whereas

in the city things are so segmented as like little sub genres of the city that to get that feeling to get that feeling of like improv that i liked on a sunday to head out and just walk around until i found something i liked i located the parts of the city near me, which in my case was like mostly the mission, you know, or I would creep down to the mission area. And then I would walk around until I found a store or a lunch place or something where I could just sit down and decompress or a park. Whereas if I just tried to explore around where I was, it would have just been all offices,

all environments that would have just reminded me of work. And that was a very small time investment i made like researching the city so that i knew how to recapture the thing that i know made me feel better same goes with like food and groceries previously groceries i just get by my house and now the grocery place was a little further away so i'd make like a plan where i do it online uh also if you're living by yourself they don't specify that but um if you are living by yourself for the first time uh try and limit how much you're doing that and limit how much time you are spending with just yourself now that oh big agree

on that yeah i think i want to sort of piggyback on what you said, agree with what you said, and say that the same goes for your interpersonal relationships. Building new social connections is difficult, but your people are out there. And putting yourself in the position where you're meeting new people is going to go a long way in terms of accelerating how quickly you acclimate, I think, to the new area. The sooner you can find your people, the sooner you can start finding things that you like that other people you do like. I think it's a little bit chicken and egg. You want to go places and do things that make you feel a little bit closer to your happy place. And in doing that, you'll hopefully find, meet new people and those people can become your friends.

Or you can also meet people, you know, at grad school, it's like a little bit difficult. It's a little bit more difficult than undergrad because there's far fewer people and i assume there's far fewer social events and stuff but you do at the very least still go to a place where you are interacting with people in some regard yeah i mean no matter what the people clearly, you live in a place where people move. So there's always people moving, which by facto means there's things people do to meet each other. I don't know what those are. Yeah, fair. And by the same virtue that you ended up in this place, even though you're feeling like a fish out of water, or you're feeling like you're like not in a place that has a,

some, a social culture that you're used to, there are going to be other people like you that have also ended up in that place. So it's just a matter of like finding where those people are, which can be time consuming and difficult. And so be patient with yourself. And it's okay to move away from

relationships that were fine for a little while but maybe you're not fulfilling you enough or too much maintenance for whatever reason yeah cut your losses yeah if be selfish like put yourself first like if things are working for you then keep doing them and if they're not then stop uh also i don't know if this is the place you intend to stay long term both the town slash city wherever you are and the literal apartment that you're in maybe if you're in an apartment i don't know if that's place you intend to stay i have moved so many goddamn times that i especially when it's been international i have always been so actually a few of my immigrant friends feel the same way about this i've never spent a significant amount of time or money on furnishing because i am so anxious

that my visa is going to get revoked or i travel too much or it's a waste of money for doing this thing i'm not saying you have to spend a lot of money on your furnishing but don't treat your living environment like it's temporary because that will make it feel temporary i was gonna say i was gonna say the same thing 100 agree we've also yeah had friends who felt like they were trapped in a purgatory state because they knew that they were eventually going to be somewhere else but that can really arrest them in the moment and prevent them from enjoying like what's in front of them and kind of you know um it almost creates an anxiety because like the way my therapist defines anxiety like

sort of in the theoretical sense is like divided attention right like you can't focus on like what's in front of you because there's all these other things clouding that space. And I think that the goal, even if you are, you know, it's high likelihood if you're in grad school at a place, you may not intend to work in an industry in that same place. You may be planning to move back home, in which case, you know, this is temporary or move somewhere else for work, in which case you'll kind of have the same problem again um but in any in either of those cases treating this too much like a temporary situation is going to prevent you from like experiencing the best parts of best parts of it and opening yourself up to those experiences why build these relationships when i know i'm going to leave?

Like that type of thing is like, I think not productive, a productive way to think about it. Yeah. Why, hey, why live when I'm going to die? Exactly. Yeah. Which I know we're both guilty of and I'm sure a lot of people struggled with

over the pandemic, especially feeling of impermanence. So why invest? But nice thing about investing time in something as well building something is it's fun it feels nice like when you when you own your living environment and say you put some time into decorating every day when you get home and you look around and you see the effort you put in it's quite satisfying comforting and i'm not talking about yeah maybe you don't live alone maybe you're just in some kind of dorm situation whatever

it's it doesn't have to be some big elaborate time investment just something that you know And I'm not talking about maybe you don't live alone, maybe you're just in some kind of dorm situation, whatever. It doesn't have to be some big elaborate time investment. Just something that makes you feel at home, smart, that resonates with you. Just something that doesn't make it feel like a hotel is going to make you feel more like a human being. I feel like we kind of killed it, to be honest. I feel like we crushed it. The only other tip would be give up, move, go back to where you were.

Yeah. Try again. Not working. If the shoe doesn't fit immediately, never will. There's no growth to be had here. If the shoe doesn't fit, there are no other shoes in the store. You must acquit. Don't ask to see it of the size.

If the shoe doesn't fit, go, leave me alone. You must acquit. It's like an Italian telling you to stop something. You must me alone. You must acquit. It's like an Italian telling you to stop something. You must acquit. You must acquit. Thank you for submitting that. I almost said PayPal. Thank you for submitting that pen pal, R.

Yeah, thank you, R. If you do have a PayPal, go ahead and send us $100,000 USD for our services. Yeah. And if you want to submit your own advice request, which is a fun way that this was phrased. I like that phrasing. If you want to send us your own advice request, then you can send us a pen pal at sadboyspod at gmail.com.

Can I? We've gotten some really nice ones too. i will uh oh yeah maybe we'll do an episode we'll do an episode where we just maybe next time we'll just burn through pen yeah yeah um can i be do a little sad boys candid moment yeah i just like look so i uh been growing my hair out um because i've been getting into like sort of exploring my curls and figuring out how to like work with them and stuff and i've also like been accessorizing more recently like i bought you know jewelry and stuff and bracelets and a watch and blah blah blah play playing around playing around. Uh, I got a lot of

compliments, a lot of people being very positive. I just like looked at myself in the viewfinder or on OBS and I'm like, man, I do not look like the way I look. And I, uh, it's temporary. Um, this, this feeling, uh, but it, and it will pass. But if anybody ever has sort of had that sort of, I don't want to call it dysmorphia or anything like that, but just like issues with your self-image, know that everybody struggles with it, myself included. I was, the filming was partially delayed

because I just couldn't get the camera to a place where I didn't think I looked tired, mean, sad also it's okay to be you you hit the nail on the head when you say it will pass not that things that were insecure about go away forever but that feeling of like intensity sims right yeah exactly plus it's like um one you know feel free to you can you're you're welcome to change what you want to change but uh fixating on something like for me to go oh I'm so ugly that's going to impact my life in xyz way um is not super productive so uh you know on advice from my therapist uh i'm going to redirect that attention to something else probably the like smash bros tournament i'm gonna watch after this and my dinner and uh reveling in a grand old time i had with my my my uh mr sad and

and i probably won't look in the mirror later tonight and think the same thing and if i do then that will pass as well but i also have the moments where i like really you know like the way i look and stuff so as you should i really like the i don't know what inspired the accessorizing choice but we talked about it last time we were hanging out in person and yeah yeah i i that was that's exciting i like that there was just a spark moment and it's looking yeah and i've been talking about it for a while and so i'm glad i'm like getting getting around to it um and i i i'm really like it's helping me it's just self-expression you know it's just like feeling confident in your own skin feeling like you're sort of your runescape avatar reflects your personality

it's nice to feel proactive i mean like it my teeth aren't fixed but the fact that i'm fixing them feels yeah yeah and i need to well not i need to but yeah it's a it's a it's always a it's always a journey it's always a journey i'm also you a journey. I'm also, you know, I'm making healthier choices. I'm doing healthy things for me, but I'm also like from a body standpoint, not in my happy place. So I think there's one thing to do, which is like fixate on that and kind of beat myself up. And there's another thing that I can do, which is recognize that I'm already taking steps and working on you know changing what i don't like so um i'm not i don't lack agency in this circumstance fuck yeah no fuck yeah no all right so just a little bit of honesty boys a little bit of candid boys yeah which i thought you know people would you know hopefully appreciate i think they do appreciate

and also um man i my my my brain just can't fire or function today um for reasons we've kind of talked about yeah offline but i mean you offline. I think you've been killing it from where I'm standing. No, thank you. Yeah, that was going to be the thing I threw out of like, man, I haven't felt on it. I haven't felt very together or poignant. But then sometimes it

helps. Like you're saying with, I know I'll feel better later or I know this moment will pass. I have now spent so much god damn time speaking into a microphone you even far more so but between you know podcasts with atypical and our podcast yeah yeah absolutely it is so like that reflexive nature of being like oh i don't like my voice that passed years ago like i'm so past that now because it's just i know if i ever think that or if i ever think my performance on something is iffy i know that it always ends up resulting in something that people react

positively to if i had every single video just had the same reaction of i don't like his tone it drones in a way i don't like and i mean every single comment then there'd be some some kind of validation in that but i don't know i i'm trying to do a better job of uh it's the way you're saying it but proving myself wrong oh yeah and i mean evidence you know let me just give you some fuel for that because I think that there was a – there's two things I want to say. One, if we flashback years ago just to sort of demonstrate growth, there was many a Savoy's recording that we canceled because either of us didn't feel like they were able to be the version of themselves that they're supposed to be on mic. And we had discussions about kind of moving past that and talking about the point of the show being that like,

we can just show up as we are. And we like have done such a, you know, like a good job of not letting that stop us sort of in the past few years. Other things have stopped us, but not like that specific thing. And the other thing that I wanted to say is that every recording of Sad Voice historically, I was in a mood when we recorded it.

And I'm sure there were bad moods and I'm sure there were times that I felt funny and blah blah blah I am so disconnected from that like just as I'm very connected to the way that I'm feeling while I'm recording right now but in a week's time in two weeks time in a month's time in a year's time I will not be connected to the feelings that I am having at this moment. And the podcast will still exist and the performance will still exist and it will still be valuable to people. And like looking back at some of our old Sadways episodes, I barely remember even recording them. So now they just exist as a performance in time. But that performance at a time was connected to, oh, I'm not feeling funny today. Oh, I'm kind of hungry.

Oh, I'm kind of tired. You know what I mean? And it's kind of cool how that does go away and that you will not always be connected to that feeling. And the lack of connection means that you won't even be able to, you kind of just have to appreciate the thing for what it is at that point because you know it's like oh i don't like this joke here i don't like how but hey you know it's like i'm not i have no emotional connection to this anymore

yeah i don't think you could show me an episode of sad boys from i mean literally more than like two episodes ago uh but especially from years ago and i'd go like oh with l jordan could have done a little better there i'm like oh yeah yeah for real i mean in fact yeah in fact like um i sometimes go back to old stuff and i'm like oh i'm so cogent coherent funny like sharp you know what i mean and i'm like has that changed or is it i'm so connected to the recency of how i'm the feelings about what i'm doing that over time i'm able to more adequately judge my work you know what i mean it's like yeah pace is different i i've definitely made a conscious effort in the years since we do the show originally to slow down a little bit which not the result of me at the time trying to speed up but i i realized that i actually am a lot more

comfortable at like a slightly lower my i guess his performance became more familiar and comfortable right defaulted more to who i am versus who the character is a little bit right so in years and years i haven't felt like i'm you know upping myself but there are like moments in time where i remember feeling that way and then yeah i've listened back to an episode i've been like oh it wasn't at all it was just that because that was a concern in that moment that's i remember that over like anything else same same applies for like how you look on camera and things like that yeah i remember wanting to get like the oh man i didn't feel good in the shirt or whatever and i couldn't like yeah yeah do you get that thing too where uh if i watch a video now

especially a recent cut of something like an edit comes through from uh austin or average sense or something i if it is a video that i recorded more than a month ago or so i don't make the same jokes in my head whereas if it is yeah to go i I might as well just not even watch the cut. I can hear my joke coming because I just am reacting to things in the same way for some reason. Right, yeah. I think I recognize that most

when I watch some of my older videos where I edited them so tight because I got so bored of what I, knowing what I was going to say that I almost don't give my, like, I don't give the pace any room to breathe because I was trying to please my own brain, which is not actually who I should be trying to please because I not only know everything in and out and did it but um i have now watched and re-watched the content over and over and over again more than anyone will ever watch and re-watch the content and it just creates a warped perception of like like i watch it and i'm like this feels so hurried you know what i mean predictable It's unpredictable. Yeah.

Yeah. I mean, you're an harshest critic. It's cliche. Yeah, true. I mean, it is what it is. And with that, we end every episode of Sad Boys with a particular phrase. Does Dipper want to do it? He said he's still shy.

Oh, he's put his I don't know he's he put his balls together one of these days one of these days he's like who me uh we love you

and we're sorry boom Gucci girl Gucci girl how you doing how you moving girl moving girl how she dead looking

that future girl future girl yeah we on now take my money go away girl you want it girl too rich for me
