Starting point is 00:00:00 All right. A little applause. Just a little applause for a couple of boys. Welcome to Sad Boys, a podcast about feelings and other things also. I'm Jarvis. I'm Jordan, the Invisalign bastard. Oh, this kid, he's fixing his teeth in an invisible way yeah it's my teeth by the end of the year no teeth they'll be there but they will be invisible yeah um can you hear it can you tell
Starting point is 00:00:34 no not at all no i'm really trying i feel like when i have my retainer in which is not the same as invisalign but it's like a similar concept. Like, you know, it's like changeable retainers, right? Like you- Yeah, it's a secret, just like Invisalign. You're not supposed to be able to tell. When my retainer's in, you can absolutely tell. It's a problem. Like a mouth guard.
Starting point is 00:00:57 Yeah, I actually sound like Bane with my retainer. Something's up with Jarvis. Oh, he's about to go to bed. Good, good night. I'm still talking about Batman I'm sleepy city will be in ashes we it's been a it's been a minute it's been a minute since our last pod yeah it's been um the last one was Nick right yeah and it's been in a special minute it's been an extra long minute since we recorded just us no stream no no extra people it's just the boys sharing a tender moment the podcast was literally years not streaming we said streaming at the end of 2020 i want to say
Starting point is 00:01:43 yeah i feel like when we do an episode in person where it's just us the universe will like fold in on itself it's gonna be really it will return to like 2018 or something it's gonna be so surreal like i literally so like um i'm huge massive i have a great platform and i'm very famous now there's of the if i get recognized it's never in a way that feels very organic i was out with with ethan recently i've run to ethan and that felt very like they went up like you jordan and ethan i think it's because ethan maybe seems more approachable than me every other time it's always uh uh barista apple employee, etc full transaction complete and then like
Starting point is 00:02:26 by the way, did you do the thing? yeah the person that sounds unique and has tattoos the most unsettling one which I bring up because it shows how long this damn show has been reverberating around in our souls I went to some coffee stop on my way back to the UK on my last trip.
Starting point is 00:02:51 And after the transaction, somebody says, hey, did you used to have a podcast? Oh. Yeah, interesting. I'm assuming she's going to be like a Jarvis person. Or maybe a me person. I don't know. She's neither. She's just a podcast person.
Starting point is 00:03:11 Which podcast? Just Sad Boys. Oh. But Sad Boys in 2017 only. What? And then because you want to know the quote that upset me? I had a big smile on my face and ha ha ha, and then tears. Did she say Justin?
Starting point is 00:03:27 I used to listen to you guys in high school. Oh, oh no. Let me remind you, this is a working adult. Oh no. They're like, I've joined the workforce now. I have a 401k and a mortgage. Third car. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:41 This person's been through like a full adult relationship. Moved in and out with someone. It is also, a lot of our audience is at that age where a couple years passing is, like, a huge era of life, you know? Which, I don't like to think about it very much. I also feel like I was, we were robbed of some years in the pandemic and I'm just pretending like that didn't, those didn't happen. So the last two years, it's the time skip. It's the, it's the time skip season. I'm taking all the XP. I'm taking all the new powers I gained during that time, but
Starting point is 00:04:18 I'm still youthful. Right. I'm still We haven't aged, not a, not a lick, not a bit. Not a day, Especially not my bones. No, nor my back, which I injured recently. How are you doing? What's good? What's new with you, Scooby-Doo? What is good? You know, I could be wrong.
Starting point is 00:04:41 Well, no, I'm never wrong. But last time we recorded, or last time I I guess, we just talked about this thing on mic in any context, I had not been back to the US yet. I think that's true. I think because it was in my old apartment, which I had moved out of. Yeah. And now you've been back twice. I've been back twice, two weeks at a time, and then six weeks at a time.
Starting point is 00:05:03 And then in six weeks from now, I'll be back for two months. It's weird. I'm still like struggling for people unfamiliar. Say you listen to us in high school and then you took a little break for whatever reason. And now you're working. I really wanted to get back into the show five years later. Over the course of the pandemic, my visa had expired and I wasn't able to get back into the country.
Starting point is 00:05:27 So for two years, I was just kind of absent, um, from, from America and my American people after five years or whatever of living there. Then after the challenging, especially challenging year following that, I finally got to, even though I had my visa, the travel ban was in place. So even a year after i got my visa i couldn't come back finally got it february of end of february this year i want to say came back for a couple weeks fully in the knowledge that because i have some very kind of specific um responsibilities here still uh life was always going to be a back and forth right right and a lot of hours on a plane a little time here a little time there it's a shame that plane humor has been completely
Starting point is 00:06:11 destroyed because boy do i have some insights plane humor has been destroyed by seinfeld 30 years ago is that yeah that motherfucker goes up huh that plane yeah what is the deal what is the deal with that? What is the deal with that? Just like a caveman? What is deal? What is deal? Plane go up. Metal bird in sky. So I was expecting to spend a lot of time like that. But I'll be honest, man.
Starting point is 00:06:37 We haven't really talked about this. The language in my brain is starting to change from the u.s being the place i'm visiting to vice versa i think that is big i mean it's you know i'm on two leases here so it definitely feels more tangible um but there's very few blockers or there's going to be very few blockers for me moving back in a more official capacity soon and that's like a very weird place for my head to sit so when things go wrong or things are stressful i i you know i'm not trying to preach mindfulness or a yoga like balance i am how dare you yeah i'm celebrating what is such a substantial win maybe to the detriment of improving other parts of my life
Starting point is 00:07:25 i'm ignoring say like my physical health because i'm still celebrating like yeah oh excitement i oh i got to do my my time with my friends so i mean i i will be the first to say that i am elated at this current situation and look for it to you know progress and continue and i'm very excited for your fateful return well i mean it's it's i maybe i don't know if there's too sappy for the part if there's such a thing but it's it's completely because of you you supported me through all of this help me get pat it literally just helped me emotionally get through that period of time but then uh you know the visa itself is through sad boys at lc it's like you've helped me logistically as well so now yeah i mean like i
Starting point is 00:08:10 for for each of us and for through various circumstances and contexts the past couple years has been very difficult also for the world and i've been hearing that yeah yeah uh and yeah i'm glad that we have each other. I'm grateful for you. I'm grateful for the progress that we've made. And it's only just beginning, baby. It feels like that, huh? I mean, I'm so...
Starting point is 00:08:38 The funny thing is, man, every time we've done the pod for the hundred or whatever times we've recorded it in whatever context, released or otherwise, whatever, whatever. The thing that always hits my brain is, man, I hope it goes well. Like, I hope I don't mess something up or slip up. I'm never nervous anymore for years at this point. Yeah, like the recording of the podcast.
Starting point is 00:08:58 Yeah, yeah. It's pretty relaxed. Yeah. More the curiosity of like, but will it? But can I? But will it? But can I? But will it? And then we start doing the show again, and I realize it is just like my curiosity is because I'm looking forward to spending time with my friend. Aww.
Starting point is 00:09:16 Yeah, no, dude. It's like, ooh, I'm not nervous, but all my friends are going out tonight. I'm looking forward to joining them. I'm hoping I don't make a bad joke or like screw up. Yeah, I know. I know that feeling. And I am really excited about, I mean, I don't want to get ahead of ourselves too much, but you know, we're trying to bring back the show in a more regular capacity. And that's very exciting because I think I miss having the, you know, the slot in my week to, I have therapy and stuff, but it's very different to just like be able to complain or, or just chat or just check in about
Starting point is 00:09:54 the ridiculous happenings in my week. And it's cool to have a record of that. You know what I mean? Yeah. I, yeah, I, um, and I do have some things that I want to talk about. But if you're comfortable with me bringing this up, Jordan, I do want to mention that, you know, the last episode I listened to of the podcast was an episode that we recorded in 2018 with a friend of the show, Tyler May, who unfortunately passed about two weeks ago. And I really want to focus on like celebrating Tyler's life and, you know, the friendship that we had and the times that we shared and just like you know the genuine light that he brought to both of us and how instrumental he was in the very early days of the show you know it's like he took he took all of our photos he was on hand for all sorts of technical support
Starting point is 00:10:58 um he was just like a dude who like really loved to help and he was like just a great friend to both of us and hopefully to him as well yeah a better cheerleader in everybody's corner yeah no no no kidding um you know down to like a couple months ago now or a month ago now i was just talking to him about some of his new plans and what he was what he was was up to in Atlanta, what he was getting off the ground. And yeah, I just wanted to sort of have a little moment to, to thank Tyler for kind of being with us, you know, for the time that he was and for being a great friend to us both.
Starting point is 00:11:41 And also just like listening back to that 2018 episode, which was about depression, which is something that, you know, Tyler is an expert on. And it was kind of crazy. Just I, it was surreal in a number of ways because, you know, I'm now posthumously listening to a conversation that we had with one of our friends and also planting myself back in your San Francisco apartment you know sitting on the bed or
Starting point is 00:12:14 whatever recording the episode it was a very it was a very like out of body very surreal experience yeah I I just don't know what to do with it yeah man I yeah I just don't know I wish not this version of me is not gonna make make great no it's not the best content i don't know and i i didn't i didn't clear this ahead of time i kind of sprung this on you no it's it's a how can we not right um yeah i also maybe i just realized my mic might have been peaking before
Starting point is 00:13:00 i think it's fine but uh for some reason the gain was really really fucking high uh yeah um it's very it's so distant tyler as you say he was living in atlanta um he was the last person he was staying with me right before i came back to the UK. So he was like, it's been... I remember that. Pre-pandemic it was. And then we were talking, yeah, like two months ago about meeting up in the UK, if he's around or next time I'm coming back through. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:13:37 You know. Yeah, I don't know. It's not... I'm always scared of feeling like i'm co-opting it right co-opting grief uh content and yeah it's not that it's just a thing that i'm scared of because i don't know how else to do it appropriately and no i i i know and and and this isn't something that i think we're going to go into today like maybe for we'll give ourselves some time to grieve and process um but i did kind of want to update our community about that and it's a really nice uh i couldn't finish it i got like a third in but but listening to the episode was really nice.
Starting point is 00:14:26 And not because of the topic or anything, just the voice, just hearing Tyler was tricky. He has a really cool voice. I was listening back to that. I was like, this has, this is, he sounds very cool. This is perhaps cooler than he really was was i mean that's i mean that's the big thing and why it's it is nice to talk about him is that tyler wasn't just like a friend of ours we knew him a really long time would also we knew him but basically yeah as long as we've known each other
Starting point is 00:15:00 yeah and was always he was an intern with us at patreon he was he was an intern on my team and then just kind of through pure likability and enthusiasm and i don't know any like as i say i i've never known anybody to be more of a cheerleader for other people's creative goals and yeah definitely more of an enthusiast for youtube especially just like yeah creators the space the form he's just like yeah very inspiring in a lot of ways and it's funny because yeah it's funny because he was such a it's you know talking about content with him is just it's not about the content that was produced it's just that his passion he was a photographer videographer he had a passion for this stuff
Starting point is 00:15:51 it's what he did um and so seeing us pursue this stuff was something that he you know was very supportive of and it's funny how much he was just like it behind the scenes for things like when i looked at like photos of us and stuff there's not that many photos of all of us in a photo together because he's usually behind the camera. You know what I mean? And in the, uh, another funny thing is just like,
Starting point is 00:16:15 I was just remembering, yeah, him crashing at my place and me recording, recording a video. It's like what? 2018 or something like that. Recording a video in san francisco like late into the night being super frustrated but like excited to show tyler that i'm learning things about cameras yeah yeah and shit like that you know what i mean i remember that i remember i mean he edited some sad boys too when we first came back it's just he's just
Starting point is 00:16:44 been a constant and i think that's what's strange about it and maybe why it doesn't feel still very real um yeah there's um a the most distinct memory for whatever reason that i have is um when tyler would come and stay with me in sf before we we moved to la if he would come and stay with me you remember my sf place it's in old sad boys episode videos actually it's it's just one room so it's you know the loft above and then the living room downstairs right living room kitchen bathroom a hybrid house he would sleep on that couch on there i'd be up top and there was just sleepover energy every time it was over we would we would sleep like complete shit because bone sober just a couple of rowdy boys me lying down upstairs and the thing that kept coming into my brain was just i am not exaggerating
Starting point is 00:17:40 when i say it was like three and a half four hours of us just like right it's the other one we're starting to go to sleep just go like oh tyler tyler i'm sorry sorry and then just going jordan no sorry it's oh yeah the very sleepover thing where you're just like are you awake i don't want to i don't want to wake you up but yeah yeah every single time and then at the the bit just became i i i hate it so much but the real index fingers together so we hey hey you awake so we yeah and that is like a very a very fond memory and he was always very kind and sweet and um yeah um it's something that you know we couldn't come back without mentioning but um i'm it's something i think we'll talk about you know more more later uh but for now i think tyler would be okay with a
Starting point is 00:18:33 hard topic switch he would probably have a levity he would probably have a i mean because that was the whole thing it's like we could talk about really dark topics and then like switch into something very goofy but yeah um he's in the dna of our whole relationship our whole dynamic yeah friends outside of you and me but you and me as well yeah yeah yeah definitely um yeah well aside from that hot topic switch how the hell are you how's your week my week has been um been it's been mostly normal but there's a lot of things happening around me that are very not normal and I will go into I will go into those things so one this week I kind of tweaked my back a little bit working out so I've been trying to take it take it easy because I don't want to develop an injury um especially a back injury because those things are apparently a bitch and a half i could add a little bit of a kind of new flavor to the post time skip jarvis
Starting point is 00:19:37 though you know like yeah like batman beyond bruce wayne how he's got a cane you know yeah i would yeah i would prefer if it's just like i'm like super ripped because i'm working out Like Batman Beyond Bruce Wayne, how he's got a cane. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I would prefer if it's just like I'm like super ripped because I'm working out all the time. Got a new workout regimen. We'll talk about it at some point in the future. But I made a little list of things. So these are abnormal things happening around you? Yes. So the biggest one is that i'm moving yeah that's the that's
Starting point is 00:20:07 the biggest one uh i'm still in la i'm not moving very far i'm just moving to a bigger i'm moving to a house not buying a house but renting and um the motivation of it is twofold and the story is kind of wild well you i mean let me take a guess you were just in the mood for a move and you decided to do it really suddenly immediately for no reason yeah that's what i was thinking i was like you know things are going pretty steady here and i don't have enough on my plate let me complicate that by picking up all my shit and taking it 10 like a couple miles to the i hate knowing where everything is who needs it let's have some chaos so i i want to say this now was two weeks ago it was like a tuesday i'm minding my own business as i often do in my own home
Starting point is 00:20:59 get a knock on the door it's somebody from the property management company of my apartment. Let's name names, baby. Name their address. I think his name is Bill. Okay. So Bill shows up at my door, and he's like, hey, have you heard the news? And I was like. He is risen.
Starting point is 00:21:21 Yeah, no, for real. I was like, I look at the sky. And I'm like, I don't believe that I have. And he's like, oh, well, do you remember when you moved in in 2019? And we were like, hey, we are probably going to build some new units on the property at some point in the near future. And I was like, no, i don't really remember that as it was three years ago and then it didn't happen and like oh well yeah now it's happening and it's happening next week uh qua you know and uh and and i was like oh and then he also said tomorrow the team is coming out to like scope out the backyard like make some measurements clean up some stuff and i was like oh okay um
Starting point is 00:22:16 is any like is there anything i can do to ease in that transition from you oh you'll also lose access to the garage uh and also the driveway where you park your car so you have to park on the street and also water and power is that something you care about it's funny that you mentioned that bookmark that for later so uh so he's like is there anything i can do to help ease this transition for you and i was like um i don't think i think what i said to him was, I don't think I can ask of you what would help me. You know what I mean? Which is to not do it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:52 I don't think I don't think no is something that I'm allowed to say here. But that's the only thing that would really help. Well, I mean, did you try? Well, he's like, I get it. I get it. Fair enough, man. I love the channel. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:07 The next day, the next day. Yeah. He's like, I've been waiting on the pot. The next day, the, um, the team comes out and it's not just like scoping out the area. They're cutting down trees. They're like, you know, they're doing work doing work which to me i think would count as construction work because i guess they're technically not like laying bricks that doesn't technically count as the construction starting because i went to my lease and it was like they
Starting point is 00:23:39 have to give me seven days notice allegedly um seven days not a lot of notice so now well yeah but it's more than none also which sounds like what they did with the tree cutting right right which is like i still think i got less than i was supposed to even though what i basically had contractually was basically nothing then um oh the construction is also going to take over six months and i'm like oh six months of construction i have to move like immediately while i'm talking to bill here i'm like i can't even now i'm starting to hear like buzzing and shit happening and i'm like i can't work through a bunch of construction because i tried doing my job from san francisco where i lived on like a busy intersection and on top of a bar and it was in fucking furiating i remember those days yeah
Starting point is 00:24:32 i remember i remember the water in your eyes yeah it was rough i would like lose my temper at the slightest honk because it i would like be trying to deliver a line i would be like saying honk and i'd be like fuck and i'd have to like repeat the line and then like a fucking car crash would happen some some knocking would happen someone would shout at someone else i was like this sucks and i now i think of it people would probably be surprised how long that went on for. That was like till the end of 2019. Yeah, that was, yeah, that, well, it was end of 2018, middle of 2019. Yeah, because I moved to LA, yeah, the middle of, end of, almost, you know, it's about to
Starting point is 00:25:21 be September, so it's almost three years ago to the day. And, uh, and so I've been in this spot for the past three years, but in that moment I was like, I have to move. So anyway, I start looking, um, for a new place and yeah, I am month to month at this point, fortunately. So I don't have to like break my lease or anything. But I look at a couple of places. I realize how fucking expensive rent is because I've been kind of rent controlled in my current spot. And I'm like, oh, wow, they're bleeding us dry over here in the rent game. It just so happens I like put out a couple of
Starting point is 00:26:07 feelers for places i send in some applications and this is like wednesday you know it's like bill came to my door on tuesday wednesday things are developing faster than i anticipated but ultimately that's a good thing because i don't have a lot of time. I want to do this as fast as possible because I will probably lose my mind if I actually have to record under heavy construction. Yeah. And so on Wednesday, the next day, one of the places is like, hey, can you come by and see the place at three? And I was like sure another place who had no idea that i was seeing a place at three was like hey can you come see a place at four i was like absolutely can this is great timing you have no idea you open the door and it's bill that both of them and he's like hey do you want to go see some properties hey what's going on
Starting point is 00:27:00 we're actually doing construction here actually yeah can you get all of your shit out of here um so i go the first place i go to is awesome it has a yard it's got um more rooms than i need but a lot of space for dipper um which is important for another thing that's developed this week but i'll last week but i'll talk about that in a second and i'm like oh wow this place has a huge yard i can't unsee this yard and then i go see another place for the same price that basically looks like my apartment now but it's twice as expensive oh it's cool and yeah and i was like oh okay so i think i need to move into an upgrade in order to excite myself about this move because if i'm moving to like basically the same place but i have to jump through all the hoops and stuff that's not going to motivate me to do anything and it's probably going to affect my
Starting point is 00:27:56 mental health if i'm being honest so i put in an offer at the the place with the yard and the next day I find out I got it. And so then it's all like we're still like two days out from them being like we're starting construction. And then also trees were being cut down and shit. So it is actually pretty noisy that week. And yeah, so I move in six days. I know. I move in six days um i know i move in six days i am employing a moving company that's going to help me pack and stuff as well because uh i hurt myself uh and i don't i want to be careful about that
Starting point is 00:28:39 and also i want to treat myself i could not be more yeah i i legitimately think there is like a a a gene that kicks in somewhere i don't know if it's said to age or life experience but all of a sudden something kicks it i mean bear in mind i've moved what six times in the last two years not an exaggeration and i i know people like, especially people that haven't moved a lot, that relish the opportunity. They're like, oh, think of how romantic it will be. We'll have everyone around and do this. It is fun and interesting for 45 minutes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:15 And then it's the same thing for a day. It's, um. It's like getting a flight instead of walking somewhere. Right. Yeah, or taking a long a long road trip yeah exactly over some water yeah i have a million excuses like i have deadlines this this month i have like all these reasons that it makes sense for me to get some help but in reality i just want to do it and I don't want to do the work and uh and
Starting point is 00:29:46 so yeah that's that's developing my I guess I don't want to say that so I won't because I'm like this is a new place I'm moving I don't want to yeah so anyway moving on the other reason that I am excited to move to a yard, because currently there's no place that Dipper can go. My dog, Dipper, he's a year-old husky pit bull mix. He's the best, just super excited all the time, super curious about the world, loves everything and everyone, wants to eat and sniff everything and everyone.
Starting point is 00:30:25 Would probably go pretty crazy for a yacht. Yeah, he would go pretty crazy for a yacht. Also, there's nowhere I can take him other than the dog park right now where he can go off leash and like run around. You know what I mean? Because I live on like a, it's not a busy street, but it's a residential street. It's a street, yeah. It's a street. There's not any fences. There's not a busy street, but it's a residential street. It's a street. There's not any fences.
Starting point is 00:30:47 There's not any areas where he can be. And this isn't stuff that I thought I needed, but my whole outlook on the world changed when I got a dog. And because of his energy level and also my work, sometimes I would take him to the dog park to like get him able to like run around and get his get his energy out. And I went to the dog park at like 7 a.m. one morning because I was jet lagged from a trip. And I've been to the dog park dozens, if not more times over the past year. But randomly, this one dog who I've never seen before, like Dipper walks toward him and he just attacks him like they don't even meet. They don't even sniff each other.
Starting point is 00:31:35 He just like attacks. And it all happened so fast. Like Dipper ran ahead of me. So I was like behind him. I like didn't get it. Like I wasn't able to break it up any faster. But the owner of the dog was right there and they even took a second to break it up and they attacked you yeah and afterward dipper seemed fine honestly he like was just like trying to keep playing and stuff um because that's just like in his nature but i
Starting point is 00:32:07 noticed so he actually kept playing and i looked at him and he wasn't like bleeding or anything or so i thought and then he kept playing a little bit and then we went home because i'm like i don't like this dog and when we got home i realized he was like bleeding and I was like, Oh no. And then I like, when they get him on the back of his neck and then apparently his ear, which I did not even know, uh, until we went to the vet. So I look on the back of his neck and like, you can clearly see like a,
Starting point is 00:32:38 a puncture. Like, it's like just a gaping hole. And I'm like, Oh, um, I guess, you know,
Starting point is 00:32:44 content wording for description of injuries. Um, and the, so we go to the vet, excuse me. Uh, Oh, oh i'm losing it oh you hate to see it damn i hate that i hate damn dude anyway we go to the vet and i don't think the injuries are bad because i'm just i'm just doing this out of um
Starting point is 00:33:22 caution because i now realize that he's injured but he's fine you know he's this basically the same and they're like oh no we need to do surgery tomorrow and I was like oh fuck like and they're like yeah there's this big laceration on the back it's like not just the puncture but like how far it goes like under the skin. And also he has like a laceration on the ear. And I didn't even know that. And then that got infected. And then they couldn't like sort of close it up. They had to like do some stuff where like his ear had to get like sutured down as it currently is now for the next couple of days before we go back to the vet uh and they had to like yeah
Starting point is 00:34:08 do some stuff to his neck and then that took a while to heal he is pretty the thing is i unfortunately didn't get the insurance of the dog owner because i didn't realize what had happened it was a kind of a rookie mistake right i think i would have you know behaved differently uh i hadn't even considered that that it was like an insurance like yeah well because it was like it cost like 1500 bucks or something for like the surgery and stuff and luckily the dog owner is also culpable for the injury of that dog. They would have been culpable, like, probably through their insurance and stuff if I had, like, found them and reached out to them. But instead, I did this out of pocket, which is annoying.
Starting point is 00:34:53 But, you know, fortunately, I can afford it. And the—so, yeah, Dipper's been chilling. He's, like, got his cone on for the next couple days uh it's been about two weeks since the incident he's recovering well he still got his cone yeah they because he's got these sutures in his ears still and he can he can get to it um so i'm gonna take him back today's like day nine i think that he's since our last checkup and they said uh 10 to 12 days so since tomorrow's a weekend i'm gonna take him in on monday to hopefully be cone free um but that's all the reason that i want him to
Starting point is 00:35:43 not have to go to the dog park. So there's another motivation for like getting the yard. And so I'm really stoked on that because we'll be able to play. I'll be able to like do stuff with no distractions. Whereas at the dog park, if I want to play like catch or if I want to do stuff. The pee convenience alone. Convenience is huge. The fact that my place is one level now,
Starting point is 00:36:08 my new place, and I don't have to go up and down the stairs all the time. Yeah. It's a, it's a dream. I'm getting a dog door for the yard. There's actually, um,
Starting point is 00:36:18 there's actually a dog door to a small area where the dog can go to the bathroom from the inside. that was built by the the owner um because they also have dogs yeah it was built by a dog specially engineered for a dog yeah bill the labrador retriever so there's a fun there's some fun dog amenities at this place because it's a dog owner the actual the yard is not all grass it's like dirt and stuff it looks nice it's got plants and stuff but it's not gonna get killed by like the acidity of dog pee i don't know if you've seen california yard yeah when a dog pees on grass it's not exactly healthy for the does it make a sound yeah um so that those have been the primary updates so days have been going on i've been working i've
Starting point is 00:37:08 been doing my normal stuff but looming over me is this big move and so i've had like movers come and give me estimates and how far out are we at time of recording how far six days oh yeah so we're moving on thursday of next week next time i see you i'll be i'll be raiding your new house yeah i'm pretty i'm pretty excited do you reckon i can get in and be there as a surprise do you reckon i can get like anastasia can get me like a spare key i'll just be there and like what are you talking about we've we've lived together for 50 years but my the the thing i'm looking forward to the least is that i have fancy fiber internet now and i'm gonna have to go back to spectrum at my new location no five no it doesn't it doesn't um service that area code yet. So, right now.
Starting point is 00:38:05 And I'm saying this as somebody that has only, my only experience of your internet was going around to upload footage. Yeah. And that alone was magic enough for me to feel that physical pain right now. It's a thing that's happened to me twice because in San Francisco,
Starting point is 00:38:22 I just got fiber where it was like $30 a month for like a for for gigabit internet and now I'm having to move again and you know hopefully I'm gonna look at the options in the area once I'm once I touch once I touch down but but yeah that's the that's maybe the worst case you just gotta download everything right now yeah download and upload everything just media overall content what's that can't be that big few terabytes yeah that's um pretty much all that's been going on with me i'm on the uh i'm on the creative side you've been putting out a lot we obviously talk i mean you know we're always talking about it yeah yeah creative side has been it's been good i think think I'm doing a better job of managing multiple things right now than usual. And that's because, you know, I've had help Anastasia obviously helping a ton.
Starting point is 00:39:33 And I'm excited to kind of build some momentum with a lot of the things that we're working, working on, be it gold channel, main channel, and then also the podcast, getting, getting things like up to speed pretty pretty psyched about that but um enough about me for now how about how about yourself young young blood uh i was about to say you know my rye little cheeky way i was a bit really like well at least i'm not moving and i realize i'm always moving yeah that's that's my secret captain i'm always moving i'm always moving um yeah no i mean it's as i say there's so much to appreciate still i'm also in a very um very relatively comfortable place with my medication at the moment which is always a relief especially while i'm in the uk
Starting point is 00:40:25 here's my uh my monthly sophie's choice if i get my meds in the uk and granted i can get them in both places concurrently they don't they don't block each other but if i get my meds here they are essentially free you know it's uh 12 bucks for a month or whatever right yeah equivalent 12 bucks in the u.s i can get them immediately guaranteed my site will update the prescription to exactly what i need which will not happen here two-year wait list to get the updates i would need right 750 dollars to get the on the stateside. I don't have health insurance right now because it felt pointless if I'm there, you know, every now and then.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Yeah. Now that I'm going to be coming back regularly, it is honestly cheaper to just burn months of not even being in the country with health insurance. I could have paid for health insurance for all the months this year that I wasn't there and spent less on that. It truly like uh oh god i i was doing my best to put on a brave little face dude i was you want to see my uh my brave face my attempt i'll make a noise for the audio listeners
Starting point is 00:41:36 yeah yeah yeah that'll be tell me my lamotrigine is uh 380 dollars i was like, I have some in the cabinet. But, uh, so, oh, the Lamotrigine, that's going to be $750. Is it? Is it? So will that be cash or credit? Oh, for me? Uh, yes, sir, that's going to be $750.
Starting point is 00:41:59 That's crazy. Do you have a Walgreens number? The NHS. Yes. The NHS? Is that a high school international health service maybe oh any chance you probably wait hold on and i pull up my channel i'm like does this change your mind oh i used to listen to your podcast when I was a baby. Oh, no. I can't go through this again. And now I'm a doctor. I don't want this.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Yeah, it was a moment. But, you know, this is going to sound truly psychotic. There was something kind of cathartic about it because it was this like, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Back in America. Ooh, born in the USA, baby. about it because it was this like oh yeah oh yeah you're back in america born in the usa baby scraped your knee that'll be a grand yeah hey keep the change toots it's a check that bounces yeah hey keep the joke my god keep keep the change of the check but yeah i mean it's, that's really exciting. There's a lot of pressure as far as trying to keep my content upload consistent.
Starting point is 00:43:13 But it is finally, the process feels really comfortable. Loving working with our team now, which is growing, man. I mean, what, five people consistently now? You mean Austin average stats? Yeah, I guess, man. I mean, what, five people consistently now? You mean Austin average stats? Yeah, I guess, yeah. Like all the crew together that we're working with. Some not working full time, but you mean Anastasia full time? Literally only two of them live in the same country consistently.
Starting point is 00:43:41 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Austin's in Canada, averages in australia yeah bummer for those two am i right yeah i say as they are getting that same medication for minus money they're paid right they actually get paid they're like the motor gene oh you're our lucky winner you actually get 750 we made this for is that austin we i made some for you myself we actually got some extra yeah you want the spares that we've got we made some for you myself we actually got some extra yeah you want the spares that we've got we made some for jordan but he was an idiot so we've got some surplus here for you he was a fool and moved to the u.s my new medication um is is new not available in generic
Starting point is 00:44:20 i think i've been on it for a couple months, but it's like a antidepressant thing. And score out of 10 so far, so far it's good so far. I, I, I, unfortunately I don't really have transformational effect. Like I don't feel any transformational effects from any medication, but I think that it's helping from the low lows especially stuff like um antidepressants or antipsychotics where it's um metabolizing over a long period of time yeah and you don't notice it until you go like i showered three days in a row yeah that's pretty sick cool um i think for me it's just been like oh you haven't been sad every night of the week so like that's progress yeah um so that doesn't have a it's like new ish and it doesn't have a generic yet so even
Starting point is 00:45:16 with my insurance it's kind of expensive and I'm like man I hate this I hate the American healthcare system. I will say, having had to re-engage with it, because I had no psychiatric history before. I moved to the US when I was 21, a month after I finished college. I had like no... When I came back here in 2020, one of the first immediate issues I had was them needing my national insurance number
Starting point is 00:45:43 for taxes and all sorts of other things and medical stuff and they were just like yeah what is that i'm like oh i don't know i was actually made this meeting so you could tell me like oh well it'll be written down on on this form that you signed after college when you got your first job okay but i didn't do that so do you have the number like we can get you a new one are you yeah but you're the government do you not have it probably do you not have it yeah do you not have rattling around somewhere you have my permission to give me my national insurance number with that i do hate i do hate that i understand you know the security of it all but it does feel a little bit weird when you're verifying information about like you're
Starting point is 00:46:25 it's like being asked for your pet you know when you don't know a password yeah you're like well maybe it's maybe it's ding dong 69 and then and it's like you're access granted and then you feel like a genius for remembering something that you came up with the exact opposite when you uh you're asked to be to prove that you're not a robot and it's like tap all the traffic lights and it's like you should have included the pole. Did you not include the post? You didn't. They like show you a three they like turn around they're like behind this trash can was a secret traffic light it's like I can't see behind the trash can. Well actually behind the camera it's all traffic lights. are one yeah yeah there's actually a hundred in this photo i am a robot that's uh it's extra embarrassing when like you're on the phone with someone
Starting point is 00:47:13 and they're instead of a robot where it's like type in your number or whatever it's a person going in could you confirm with me what your uh what your password is for this account or what your pin number is for this account and i'm like uh could you try jarvis loves his mommy 420 and they're like well no is that mommy with o's or oh yeah no zeros for o's okay cool yeah yeah so jarvis loves his mommy is unfortunately not coming out yeah and the M's are all capital. Oh, okay, no. Oh, could you try Sperm Doctor 24? What website is this? What are you logging into? Why are these...
Starting point is 00:47:54 You said your subscription was cancelled? Yeah, my dad found out I was subscribed. This is thank you for calling, Walmart support. It's like it wasn't even a doctor uh there is uh you know what's funny about that is i know look support person wells fargo support person i know i should know my account number we're on the same page it's weird that i don't it's not that long i should have just been able to lock it in now but you have to understand this is your job and you think about account numbers it's become a thing that you prioritize
Starting point is 00:48:32 i'm i should have because this comes up every single week of my life right but i haven't and so what i'm going to provide instead i don't know my memorable information i mashed my face against the keyboard so i don't know what it says um i clearly misspelled what my first school was yeah i forgot my first bet's name yeah you you actually capitalized the f in forest school so we're gonna have to assassinate you actually dude feels like a personal attack that you'd assume i'd go to forest school because i'm from the midwest i actually i went to a school with the word valley in it oh gosh i was so close i went to oh man the oh the nature boys yeah nature boys oh dude this is nice yeah. Just having a nice time. I know we're weird for this, but I feel very lucky that we have a...
Starting point is 00:49:33 Not just for getting to output a show and make a thing, but also doing it in a way that is... It's a weird checkpoint. Every single time we make an episode of sad boys it is uh and everything everywhere all at once moment where i am thrown into every episode we've ever done and i'm ready to reflect on it and bounces around in my head i see all versions of myself one where i'm a chinese film star and i remember you're a rock uh finally saw it by the way i was lagging i was so far behind oh dude i'm happy for you did you enjoy it i adored it i love the swiss army man is one of my favorite movies ever and i
Starting point is 00:50:15 did not realize that it was the same directors until oh pretty close to seeing it um it's anything i could criticize about it is completely intentional which for me it kind of eliminates critique i think like right right right because it's like it's like you made this choice on purpose and it's like whether how i feel about that choice is whatever because yeah it's like oh well i could critique like the the structure near the end it kind of has like four endings it's kind of return of the king itself but all of them meant something to you clearly it was an airtight screenplay for the thing you wanted to say yeah i really enjoyed it you know what's weird i don't know if this played
Starting point is 00:50:57 for you or not if you have like like life experiences where you empathized i sympathized for the generational trauma stuff for like first generation families and the like. And the kind of emotional withdrawal element. My partner talked a little bit about her experiences. It always feels like it should be first generation when you were the first generation born. But no. Children of first generation when you were the first generation born but no first children of first generation uh immigrant parents but they like they were talking about how yeah you kind of have to navigate that if your family's coming from a culture that maybe is not explicitly emotionally vocal as they might be expected to be in a new culture or that you might need for whatever reasons um and she was very touched by that and i genuinely just couldn't relate to it at all yeah it was interesting to it was not nice
Starting point is 00:51:55 i don't know how to describe it it was interesting to know that i'm not the target of something and trying to appreciate it from like yeah that's how i felt i just felt like i was appreciate yeah because it's not something that i have experience with but something that i was trying to appreciate yeah as an outsider there's like lyricism from like a life i haven't lived like a style of like uh talking about like a marriage like watching marriage story being like yeah right same man um definitely so there's a lot of things i mean we're running low on time and there's a lot of things that i want to get to so instead i'm gonna say that next time i want to look at my notes i want to do a segment where i look at all the notes I write in a given week. Oh, that's fun. Don't actually revisit because I feel like I write things down to recall them and I don't ever recall them. There is a piece of paper on my desk for months that just says shoe rack and I don't need or want to buy a shoe rack.
Starting point is 00:53:01 I have written down parasocial relationship with jesus it's the most popular parasocial relationship in history i think there's something funny there you know what i mean um but uh i okay this i actually found it's so funny you mentioned this because i have this is a prep note for an episode of sad boys in like 2020 I remember it was okay it was we were in that apartment um this is all it says I'm not I'm not presenting some kind of puzzle uh maybe it's in an episode and some entrepreneuring young listener can give context but by the time they dm me context I'm not presenting some kind of puzzle. Maybe it's in an episode in some entrepreneuring young list and I can give context. But by the time they DM
Starting point is 00:53:48 me context, I'm going to have forgotten we did this. Right, right. Sorry, guys. A Nintendo Switch case, Splatoon 3 branded. Collector's Edition box set of The Sopranos. Ten thin magnets.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Twelve coffee machine pods. much velcro a pair of novelty size wolverine claws mr beast autograph and one oh no two plushy minions you know what this is from this is a yeah i know that's what i first thought about but the uh we you did a game where it was like guess it was like you were asking me to choose between two things or hmm oh like things maybe I had on my desk or something it was something
Starting point is 00:54:40 it was it was oh my god I can't remember but it was, it was, oh my God. I can't remember, but it was for a segment. I completely remember what it was. What was it? It was two of these arrived to my house and I still don't know why. Packages arrive with these. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:01 I know there were thin magnets. I found some recently. The rest of it, big question. None of these. None of the other ones have I ever owned. That's so funny. Yeah, there's so many just out of context things. It's like when we meet people who, or people DM us who reference old bits from the show
Starting point is 00:55:15 that we just have no touch point with anymore. Which is like the most flattering thing ever. And I, yeah, I don't. I actually love it and I want it to continue. Because my version of that is referencing like the freezer arc from Dragon Ball Z. Me going up to somebody and making that reference
Starting point is 00:55:34 and crossing my fingers. I said that to Ethan the other day. I made a Majin Buu reference and Ethan is you know like what 17 years old or something. And he was just like yeah just got it and it made me feel so cool. Oh, nice, nice. Maybe I'm in my early 20s as well.
Starting point is 00:55:50 So do we, is there anything, I mean, I also wanted to talk about, and this is something for later, how I'm insecure about how often I say um and ah, and how hard it is sometimes for me to speak without thinking. Like I lose my train of thought when I speak, but I don't want to talk. We don't have time. And I need to talk about a crazy dream that I had if I can find the notes on it.
Starting point is 00:56:16 And also someone when I was streaming, this one is a little bit ridiculous. I was watching a Dharman video as i often do on stream and someone was packing a suitcase on their bed which is a scene that we often see in film and television i said i just thought about this if you're flying with your luggage should we really be putting it on the bed it's dirty it's gone through like god knows where you know what i mean and i never put my luggage on my bed because i'm like i think about that and then someone dm'd me very passive aggressively clean your suitcase to which i thought no person has ever done that no person has ever cleaned their suitcase.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Don't project your weird behavior on me. Cleaning suitcases is not something that we as a society do. Well, yeah. Also, if we're just going to, if we're only going on workflow, what? Clean my suitcase so that I can put it on my bed, unpack it, put it in a closet, and then fly again. Yeah. I'm never interacting with this. You're only cleaning it to put it on your bed like just put it on the floor or somewhere in consequence forever until you fly on a plane again i and i feel like it's only put on beds because it makes for a more
Starting point is 00:57:38 compelling shot in film and television yeah exactly not kneeling on the ground or throwing them haphazardly into the distance yeah okay so anyway yeah that's a good point it would be way less impactful for a sudden surprise i'm leaving you if they were kind of kneeling like cross-legged on the ground folding the underwear to make it as thin as possible yeah they've gotta be you know doing the whole thing yeah yeah yeah look i'm leaving you and you're keeping the kids because i hate them both but i'm gonna hold the top down and you do the zip is that yeah yeah no that's no wait you're opening the other zip no no oh no it's double zipped it's double zipped and then it this is why i'm leaving everything flies all over the place this is why i'm leaving you um okay so that's all my stuff before we get into potentially a pen pal, is there anything that you wanted to knock out?
Starting point is 00:58:27 I don't think so. Though I will mention Beacon of Pen Pals. I just gathered some DMs this time for a quick Q&A. But if people want to send something a little bit more substantial, hey, did you already know this or is it news to you? But we have an email address. It's called sadboyspod at gmail.com. I did know that and I remember it from the past, but maybe the listener had no idea.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Oh, from when we made it several years ago when I was in high school. Yeah, back when I was learning to speak for the first time. Sad Boys came out when everyone was in high school. No matter how old you are. The creation of high school. I was talking to Robert De Niro the other day and he was like, I'm a big fan of sad boys when i was in high school can you believe it uh yeah if you would like to send a more substantial letter in no no word count no word cap though do keep in mind i'm intimidated by paragraphs so two two paragraphs i i too am
Starting point is 00:59:22 intimidated by paragraphs and let us know if it's okay to read it on the show and also i i do kind of like giving advice so if if you need advice on something that would be that'd be nice more than welcome including things that we i quite enjoy trying to give advice on things i'm not qualified to talk about purely so you know even if i'm slipping up it's fun to throw my brain into things i'm not ready for i think that could be exactly could be fun extend a list of questions just an extended letter if you prefer but yeah uh sad boys pod at gmail.com some of the q a questions we got we got a lot because um i'm an idiot and i posted it and left it up
Starting point is 00:59:59 uh i forget that people see the things I post so I didn't get it oh fuck me dude so many, I'm so stupid and some of these don't make sense because I bet they're references to stuff like this one just says juice box right, maybe it's on a different piece of paper that i wrote
Starting point is 01:00:25 yeah that's when i was in high school juice box thin magnets mr beast's autograph um have you eaten yet today have you eaten yet say what you had i had oh god what did I have? Wild. I don't know what I had. Oh, I had a, um, there's a chocolate croissant right next to me. Or, you know. Okay.
Starting point is 01:01:01 Dude, that's a really, I was going to be very mad at you if you did not have at least lunch. Uh, I also had an avocado toast, which is why I can't afford a house. Oh, what? You people, you millennials, you're not buying enough diamonds. You're spending all your money on that thing. SNL or something. Yeah, it's true.
Starting point is 01:01:17 Oat milk. Well, this is just a really nice one. Josie says, no way, no way, no way. Which i think is just a response to us doing the podcast at all i think they're just protesting they were like yeah they're trying to stop me no way no way yeah wait this would be a video a gun uh the pod is getting me oh currently the pod is getting me through college but i ran out of episodes this is wonderful oh that's very sweet oh you know to this day the pod the the which has like you know a fraction the consumers of other content like versus like some some of our videos right by far the most dms and
Starting point is 01:01:56 by far the most found out by definitely by by tenfold it is i also realized that for the sake of um in the future this is a note to self but we leave it in the show we need to talk about click uh uh we need to talk about clickbaity subjects so that we can like yes put them in the title and thumbnail so that people click and then they hear us talk about you know emotional vulnerability and sad stuff well here's one and we can i'll write it down to talk about it next week because it's not really it's evergreen for some fucking reason it won't go away um it would be interesting to talk about andrew tate not in terms of the man more in terms of like there are in my opinion some kind of ice cold takes about like talking about andrew tate is
Starting point is 01:02:39 dangerous and you are platforming this man by and it it's interesting. I don't think it's completely without merit. I mean, there's also the news of Andrew Tate getting banned from Instagram and Facebook today. Yeah. Which is something that, and then he immediately goes live with Aiden Ross to 100,000 people on Twitch. So I think he's fine. I swear he's fine.
Starting point is 01:03:02 And he's always got his special school where he teaches you how to ingest enough testosterone via elk meat that you can intimidate any woman at her place of work or whatever it's known as hustlers hustlers university hustlers university hustlers universe or versi you do you get a bugai you get a bugai you enroll in hustlers university you're set for life you're you're a top g i love your i love your entry tape i did it on do you remember just doing it in the car for like yeah i do i told you about us in the car doing it and and and now people tell me it unsettles them yeah which is honestly a goal for any impression that was like the most jordan jarvis contrast things we were
Starting point is 01:03:42 talking about like uh okay yeah how we we were talking about like serious business stuff oh we were yeah yeah and then i don't remember the the segue but then it was just us going like yeah us this university yeah it was just us practicing andrew tate accents for for simply to make fun of the very toxic and bad man who at the time was just all over social media so obviously the topic of discussion i don't want to trivialize i don't want anybody to think we're trivializing edger tate by making jokes about him but it is uh yeah he comes he generates a toxic energy and is the result of a ideology that i not only disagree with but i think is fundamentally evil but also he sounds very funny and he sounds very funny it is kind of his whole thing
Starting point is 01:04:25 and yeah when we're making fun of him at his expense we do not think that he has really any redeeming qualities but yeah is your last name really a deca just curious no it's my middle name and haha and trickster uh you've been playing games lately by the way any video game somebody asked if we have a favorite video game late i don't i played a little bit of don't starve um with with together friend of the show yeah don't start together with friend of the show zoe but i haven't really played anything i want to play multiverses and i haven't played it yet yeah it's interesting that could be fun i'd love to play some don't starve together actually it's been oh yeah yeah i that it's too hard i mean i need emotional support through it it is it i was looking into like the strategy for it um because we were just going without a guide and and just like trying to intuit stuff but then when you
Starting point is 01:05:15 look into it i was like oh wow this is very deep oh and then i played um on the plane to spain which lies mainly in my brain um i i went to spain for my friend nick's wedding nick and alba congratulations um we went to jihon spain yeah how long you give him decades and then divorced and then right on their deathbed yeah yeah so on the plane which was it's like 13 hour flight or something i played a little bit of final fantasy 7 and then i also played a little bit of hollow knight oh hell yeah yeah yeah so that was those were fun you've been hitting the classics because Because I hadn't touched Don't Starve since the original Don't Starve. Yeah, yeah. Which I really got into.
Starting point is 01:06:07 And Don't Starve has gone through, Don't Starve and its sequel, Don't Starve Together, has gone through a Minecraft-style evolution of indie darling to iteration on iteration on iteration. And now the lore is really deep. The mechanics are great. The systems are like... It's one of those games with a Tumblr shipping community kind of thing. Right, right, right. Where the lore has been built Freddy Fazbear style by not the people making it.
Starting point is 01:06:32 I do want to play... Speaking of Freddy Fazbear, I do want to play some scary games on stream. Oh, I did try to play the back rooms for a little bit, but I couldn't figure out one of the puzzles and got tired and went to sleep. Well, let me tell you uh we can leave this in i am working with a company i don't know if i say the name yet but there's i'm doing a charity stream or like a couple days of charity streams in october which will probably be close to when this comes out, with horror games and stuff for a charity that like works in children's hospitals to provide like game escapism and stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:07:17 It's very cute. Right. It's not child's play, is it? It's not child's play. I will pull it up because that's where my brain went as well. Yeah because i was just like that's the only one that i know that works with kids and video games uh yeah this is the one uh gamers outreach the company is gamers outreach um we believe the world is better when hospitalized kids can play it's really cute it's it's very cohesively put together i have some friends that have previously been involved with their projects but they are doing a spookathon and they suggested i gather together a couple
Starting point is 01:08:09 of friends and we play something on stream i think i'm gonna do it i'm gonna do like a 12 hour or 24 hour or whatever you know make a spectacle of it but if you want to join me at some point and play a game called barrow trauma b-a-r-o-t-r-a-u-m-a or don't starve together both spooky scary stressful i'm down to i'm down to play something spooky and scary i just kind of want to scream you know what i mean yeah unrelated to streaming yeah i just kind of need an outlet to scream and then that way i can say that it's from a horror game but in, it's my trauma. I'm so scared! Fuck! When was the last time... Oh, I mean, we can end with this.
Starting point is 01:08:49 When was the last time you had a proper good scream or yell? Big yell. Ooh. Ooh. Sometimes I do a little... Have you ever had an anxiety yell? I, one time, this is maybe a couple weeks ago, I couldn't fall asleep, and it made me very antsy and annoyed.
Starting point is 01:09:08 And I screamed. I was just like, ah! Like, because I was just like so anxious that I wanted to scream because I couldn't relax myself. Yeah. It was weird. It was a weird, it was almost, I guess maybe it's like a, not a panic attack, but something along those lines where I just, there was no place I could go that was like safe. And it just felt very like sort of walls closing in it's like uh the shaking up a can it's not like a long big it's just a quick like cracking open the tab on a can yeah exactly needs to the carbonation has to go somewhere right i agree i agree with that i think that's probably the
Starting point is 01:09:42 closest to the most recent i've been living with people for the first time in a really long time for the last sort of, you know, I'm on my third year. I'm on my third lease of less than a year. Right. For the last two places, I was taking care of my mom and then now I have my roommate, Joel. Yeah. And in both cases I have my anger issues from time to time. And when I lived by myself
Starting point is 01:10:09 I just didn't have a coffee table for half that lease because I just stomped through it so many times. But I was living solo bolo. I could get away with it. Now I'm trying to be more considerate. I've had this weird thing lately where I think I'm so in the mood to play a video game. I can't believe how much work progress progress i've made i'm feeling like i'm in such a good mood
Starting point is 01:10:28 sit down ps5 controller in my hand i'm like oh i want to scream i'm just really really angry immediately if i play poorly which did not used to be the case oh yeah you go on xbox live then something about just the current mindset i really want to get into guilty gear and i can't because if i get hit once i get angry and i turn it off yeah i i i you you know me i'm like a very perfectionist thing and it's very hard for me sometimes to enjoy things uh that i'm bad at and so i sometimes a lot of me getting better at games is me talking down to myself and being mad at myself for not being perfect at it. Yeah. But then I get good really fast.
Starting point is 01:11:13 And that's what it's all about. It's about how you perform at the game, not about your mental health along the way. Yeah, not about sustainably playing the game or really just like the game reducing your life expectancy. Or even having fun, because it's not about having fun yeah oh look at this mr entertainment over here obsessed with enjoying themselves yeah what what a loser freaking dorkus it's if you don't win then you're a bad person and then all of a sudden guess who's getting 10 hit combos yeah Yeah. Yeah, this guy. Or guess who knows the lore? And guess who wins the world championship and isn't excited about it? Because they didn't allow themselves to feel a single modicum of joy the entire time.
Starting point is 01:11:56 Who's a loser now? Me still? Yeah, me. I mean you. Oh, in a different way. Oh, okay. You got stuff going on today? I'm about, I guess guess at the end of my day
Starting point is 01:12:06 i i'm working on a video i'm we're like scripting and i need to do more of that but do i feel like it no um so we'll see where that goes and then i need to pack um the stuff that the company can't pack the moving company can't pack are like my technology you know so i and also some delicate you know items that i have here so the dog i've been they they just don't know how to pack them safely um i am doing that stuff bit by bit. So, yeah. Probably a little bit of both of those things. Any content?
Starting point is 01:12:54 Just the writing. Not filming anything. Oh, yuck. Writing? Preparing a video? Get the hell out of here. Look at this loser. I did just do a, um,
Starting point is 01:13:06 I did just film. I don't want to spoil it, but I filmed a video that I have to film over a couple of, like I filmed something now and then I'm going to film something like next month. Uh, and so I'm, I'm excited about that. I'm excited to be like working on a couple of different things.
Starting point is 01:13:22 Oh yeah. Especially something that sounds like kind of a bigger scale concept type thing. Yeah. At least just a little bit. And then, um, then I've got the next thing up just like working on deadlines and things
Starting point is 01:13:34 like that. I've got a vehicle registration or renewal notice sitting in front of me that I, I owe $750 apparently to the DMV. So I'm excited to pay that pretty. Oh, hell yeah, dude.
Starting point is 01:13:44 Yeah. And they'll, uh, get you, they'll give you medication. So I'm excited to pay that. Pretty pumped actually. And they'll give you medication? What's the trade-off with that one? I don't think I get anything. I think it's actually just money I owe the government for having a car. You get to keep things exactly how they are and still have to move, yes? Yes.
Starting point is 01:13:59 Ka-ching. Yeah, it's awesome. Well, I mean, I for one am excited for you to move and have a whole new generation of trash stories. Who knows? Imagine if you move somewhere and the trash experience is really good. Oh, a man can dream. Don't have to share any trash bins.
Starting point is 01:14:14 Don't fucking threaten me with a good time. I actually may have to share trash bins, because technically I will have a neighbor, but not, hopefully not that close of a neighbor. We'll see. Okay, well, this has been a treat. And we'll be back soon with another one, hopefully. Another little treat for you little freaks. Another little treat for you freaks, yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:38 You crazy little emotional perverts out there. We end every episode of Sad Boys with a particular phrase. We love you. And we're sorry. Sorry. Boom. Boom. Hey, you got a little tattoo.
Starting point is 01:14:53 I should get an elbow. Elbow them with, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I keep on running. Gucci girl. Gucci girl. How you doing? How you moving, girl?
