The truth is, AI agents need you. Sure, they'll process, predict, even get work done autonomously.

Starting point is 00:02:52 No. We got to get some WD40. Or some new chairs with better lumbar support, more firm cushion, and better back support in general. What if? Honestly, man. We've been using these for a while. These chairs aren't great for the lower back, I will say. No, because they're deep, so you're really just kind of like, they kind of force you to make that C.
Starting point is 00:03:21 That's why I always, like, cross my legs. It's to, like, get. Yeah, that's why, Ryan. And not because you're a fruity little Nancy boy. Just let me get through the at least excuse before you pile on, okay, buddy? It's to provide additional support. Now you can pile on, but you already did. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:03:38 No, we're going to have a conversation. Just roll the intro real quick. Now, buddy, like, respect is something earned, okay? Guess who's back? Back again. Unk is back with his friend. Unk is back, onk is back, unc is back, unc is back, unc is back. So I need to be doing this or I need to be doing this?
Starting point is 00:04:15 This. Hello! Okay. Because I do this a lot. You do this? I mean, you... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, dude, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:24 But I need to be having it right here, baby. Yeah, dude. Imagine it's like a popsicle and you're ready to fucking just go to town on that sucker. Did you actually just lick that? No. Dude, think about, like, recent. episodes, all the shit you've done to that microphone. I mean, the bacteria
Starting point is 00:04:44 probably hasn't lasted. You know, it's probably been like, I can't feed off of anything. Then I provided something else the next week that gives it that extra long. Well, you just licked it and you know how much bacteria is in your mouth? Yeah. Yeah. But the, uh, onk. We're onk. We're both onk now. Yep.
Starting point is 00:05:03 Why am I saying that? Well, ladies and gentlemen, this is the first episode of Super Mega Show where not only Ryan McGee, but also his best friend, Matt Watson, best friend, right? Yeah, 30-30s. 30. We're both in our 30s now. That's right. No more young spry 20s. We're in our 30s. I saw people commenting online being like, holy shit.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I remember when he was getting teased on Super Mega because he couldn't drink yet. Oh, wow. You guys were, Yeah, guys were teasing me because it's like, you're not 21, yeah, you can't drink.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Did we start when you were night, no, 20, no, night, teat. I had just turned 20, two months prior because I turned 20, February 5th.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Was I not, was I not 21 when we started? No, we were. You were. Okay, okay, it was in that window where, okay. No, wait, wait, wait,
Starting point is 00:06:02 yeah, yeah, because you're two years older than me. Mm-hmm. And I hadn't just, and I was, and I was, wait, does that mean I was,
Starting point is 00:06:07 So I was about to turn 22. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I had just turned 20 because it was April 2016. So I was freshly in my 20s when we started Super Mega. But if you go back and watch like kids with problems videos or Cindigo videos, I was 19. Same with the Markiplier stuff. Yeah, that was me back in South Carolina with the Cindigo stuff.
Starting point is 00:06:35 That's when I was, I might have even been. 18 at the start of Sindigo, I'd have to do the math. No, no, I didn't start, I'm trying to think. You started Syngo in 2012? Yeah. So you would have been 18, right? Yeah, I was 17 when I graduated,
Starting point is 00:06:52 but then I probably turned 18 that summer. So yeah, I was 18, yeah. So you got one of them weird birthdays between the school year. I was one of the youngans. Yeah. And if you had waited just a little bit longer, you would have been one of the oldest in your grade
Starting point is 00:07:07 instead of the youngest. Well, I've said this before, but there was a point where they did a shift in, like, baseball stuff. And my dad was excited because I'd finally be one of the oldest instead of one of the youngest. So I like, and when you're young, you know, you're maturing at a rapid pace. You're maturing at a rapid pace, getting muscle, all that stuff. So I'd be like a year ahead of most of the kids playing. And my dad was excited.
Starting point is 00:07:30 He's like, you'll be one of the older ones, finally. And that was the year that I decided to be like, I actually don't like playing baseball. ball dad he was like are you sure you don't want to just stick it out for one more and see just just try it maybe that spark will just ignite and i was like no it was like one of the first times i feel like when i was younger that i like put my foot down and was like this is something i don't want to do you know because because you one of the first times you disappointed your father because like yeah and there's many there's many times so that that's like the first moment of uh of uh of
Starting point is 00:08:07 Ryan McGee no longer being Ryan McGee the little boy, but Ryan McGee, the big man. You're going, I don't want to play baseball no more, Dad. Oh, you don't play baseball, damn it. Yeah, and then he, well, he kicked me down the stairs. I'm kidding. I'm joking. Are you sure? Yeah, I'm joking.
Starting point is 00:08:24 I can give him a call right now and say, I die. Oh, don't, don't, don't cause no trouble. I won't cause no trouble. Yeah, but how'd that feel? Standing up to your old man. Showing him who's boss. putting him in his place. My dad, being the sweetheart that he is, it was tough because, like, he had enjoyed,
Starting point is 00:08:42 because I think he thought that then I would just be doing nothing, not getting any social interaction. Because that's what a lot of, yeah, that's what a lot of sports is. Much of, like, how church for adults is more communal and about socialization. I feel like that is about, like, clubs, sports, and Boy Scouts and all that for kids. It's more about the socialization than it truly is. I mean, of course, with Boy Scouts, you got, you get to, climb up the ladder and be chosen for college for being awesome at building fires.
Starting point is 00:09:13 I got my ladder badge. Don't you have to like write like a, isn't there like a big project where do you have to write an essay for that project at all? Do you know? For what project? For like the Eagle Scout. There's like the Eagle Scout project where it's like the final test where it's like you have to do like a, you have to choose a project like a community thing or something.
Starting point is 00:09:30 Oh yeah, yeah. You probably, I mean, dude. I did Venture Scouts. Wasn't quite Boy Scouts. I did Cub Scouts. I was a little cub, dude. Well, now the Boy Scouts might as well be Venture Scouts. They got girls in them now.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Yeah, they might as well just be the Girl Scouts. Dude, I've told this before, but I have very few memories from when I was in Boy Scouts. And literally, one of the... Do you remember what rank you got to? No, absolutely not. Oh, come on. Come on. You didn't hold it close.
Starting point is 00:10:02 You don't have it behind like some... Dusted glass, wooden. like framed. I did, I did Cub Scouts because, uh, I feel like at the time, it's one of those things where it's like, kind of, kind of what you were saying, where it's like, uh, I'm at a certain age and I feel like my dad, uh, is like, well, you need, you need more extracurricular activities to be like the rest of the boys, son, boy scouts. And, uh, my dad was, was pretty involved, uh, with the, uh, with the, with the scouts when, when I was a part of it. Is he an Eagle Scout?
Starting point is 00:10:37 Oh, he was a Cubs. He's a Cub Scout. When I said involved, I meant my dad actually was also a Cub Scout alongside me with the rest of the your dad strikes me as an Eagle Scout man. He strikes me as like, I got an Eagle Scout. He strikes me too. I don't know. He, he, he, I don't know if he.
Starting point is 00:10:55 He does art for a living man. Yeah. So, you know, they don't have any badges for, you know, that stuff. The pretty painting badge? Yeah. I doubt it. That's a slap across the face. That's the badge, a big red handprint.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Yeah, you'd be hiding in Boy Scouts over like a candlelit, like in a solo, like me, just in your sleeping bag with a tiny little like... Do I hear some sketching? No, sir! Pizzle check! Searching tins for like crayons and pencils. I find watercolors! But, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:27 It's like a beautiful landscape of like the mountain range and everything. Who did this? Basically, I literally just have one... One memory. That's like a core memory. Actually, I have two. One of three. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Don't tell the third one. Well, that's the fourth one. I'll tell the fourth one. First one is, I remember there was this kid that was in my Cub Scout group. Was he ugly? Dude, disgusting. I could just tell by the way you were kind of dancing around describing him as a kid. It's almost like he was just an other.
Starting point is 00:12:03 This kid. His name was Julius, and he, uh, he, Julius. Julius. And I remember Julius was, uh, I mean, looking back now, I kind of feel bad for him, because he clearly had some kind of like, crippling anxiety disorder as a kid, but he was always like, they all think I'm ugly. He was always worrying about like, like, out loud worrying. And he's like, oh, God, what if, what if, what if this bad thing happens?
Starting point is 00:12:27 And I remember it became like a, but if he gets eaten by a snake, you know? I feel like when you're, how old were you all? Elementary school Okay, that's definitely the age where it's believable that like an anaconda would swallow you hole somewhere out in like
Starting point is 00:12:40 the fucking South Carolina wilderness for some reason or at time let's just say some hole swallowed my anaconda but basically I remember this
Starting point is 00:12:51 that was not during Boy Scouts I just want to say that but no my dad took me and all the all the scouts on a hike
Starting point is 00:12:58 in the wilderness in South Carolina specifically oh man Man, South Carolinians, y'all know where it's at, Francis Marion Forrest. And we go out and Julius, man, he started worrying right away. And I remember it became a joke that day amongst every, even the leaders, they were like, everyone at the same time would start with say in unison, Julius, stop worrying. Because he'd be like, what if a bear? What if a bear comes and eats us?
Starting point is 00:13:31 And just the whole hike, he just kept doing that. and everyone would just repeat Julius, stop worrying. They're black bears in South. The thing is, I didn't live in an area where, like, I would see. Yeah, well, there's no. No, yeah, there are bears in South. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But, but not.
Starting point is 00:13:47 I only saw one on the, I was asleep, and one ran out into the highway, and, like, people had to, like, the officers had to, like, stop everyone and let it cross. I woke up when we were, my dad was just like, yeah, there was a bear back there. I was like, what? I was kind of upset because he didn't. You wake me up? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Honestly, I don't think we're, I don't think of the low country.
Starting point is 00:14:08 There's too many, too many black bears. I don't think there's any. You'll, you'll, you'll, maybe, you know, the, the swamp bear. Yeah, there's, there's swamp bears. And, uh, we got bobcats and, and shit like that. Which, big cats are scary. Hearing them, I always heard them. I never, I never really, I don't think I've ever seen a big cat.
Starting point is 00:14:26 I always heard them, though. I was, uh, mountain biking, uh, with my father. And, uh, I had, we got separated so I'm just kind of like biking by myself my dad is just he's gunning it forward La la la la la la la I see he like stops up and he's like And he like points and I look
Starting point is 00:14:45 And there's just a big big ass bobcat in the woods Just kind of doing its thing But basically Julius kept worrying And that was that's that memory I don't know what I'm worrying It wasn't building up to like a climax or something And then a big black bear showed up Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Julius got killed. He was torn in half. And it was crazy. The bear took him up in a tree and we had to wait for seven days and seven nights to gather the remainders of his corpse. Yeah, it was, uh, you know, the Julius stopped worrying thing kind of became a meme at that point. And then the second core memory is when we had to, you know, do our best with his mangled
Starting point is 00:15:20 corpse to do a weekend at Bernie situation with his parents. That didn't quite, that, that fell apart immediately. Because, I mean, what do you think he got the worrying from? You know, his parents were waiting by the van. when we got back going, where's Julius? He's right, I'm right here. This kid ripped in half, rotting, just decomposed already. I wave his arm and it comes off.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Julius. This podcast is reprehensible. Yeah, but. Yeah, let's get to that second core memory. Second core memory. And let's see just how reprehensible we get. Yeah, so. Talking about boys.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Guys, it's going to get crazy with each story. Is each story a Boy Scout story? Yeah, yeah. the three core memories I have from Boy Scouts. Story number two. We had a, there was like a Boy Scout meetup that took place at a,
Starting point is 00:16:08 in the cafeteria of, do you remember ever having to go to like, Under the Doc? I don't, it was weird, dude. And it was dark, it was dark, and everyone had lanterns and robes and,
Starting point is 00:16:18 uh, masks, animal masks. It was awesome, though. It was awesome. He's like a Kenny character in your life. Just the next week he's back at Boy Scouts live again.
Starting point is 00:16:29 No one mentions, like him what happened last time. And they sacrificed him to, to, uh, to, uh, some pagan god, but, uh, I can't pronounce it.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Yeah, it was, it was crazy. Baphomet, but, so the next one, we're in some cafeteria of some school I didn't go to.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And, uh, I just remember it was, it was boring. And I went out in the parking lot and, uh, this other, uh,
Starting point is 00:16:55 boy scout named Trey, said, y'all, check this out. And, him and his dad took me into their van. Now, I know what you're thinking. They ended up just showing me,
Starting point is 00:17:05 they had a little CRT TV in the van that they could play PlayStation on. And I thought that was the coolest thing ever. On a camping trip? That wasn't camping trip. This was just like... Oh, that's right. They just invited you for a fun time.
Starting point is 00:17:17 No, it was at in a Boy Scout event at a cafeteria that was like pretty close to my house. It was like a meetup of all the Boy Scout troops. And they were like, go to the parking lot. Check this out. Okay, okay, sorry, I was picturing for some reason the van was like in the cafeteria somehow Or like you had like a half outside cafeteria with like an on a or something
Starting point is 00:17:40 I know you went to an art Inside the school cafeteria You went to an art school I don't know what kind of fun Maybe they have like a big kind of where they wheel in all the food and stuff a big door And then Trey and his dad drove the band right in And we played PlayStation in the school cafeteria Sir, what are you doing? What are you doing?
Starting point is 00:17:59 a PlayStation. Oh, come on, come on, come right in. Can I play? And then the last memory, I've told this one before, but it's at my house. And, um,
Starting point is 00:18:08 because it's like, I guess we would take turns, uh, on like, whose house, boy scouts would meet up at, my house. And it was,
Starting point is 00:18:16 the lesson of that day was, it was like a Sunday afternoon. And my dad was the one in charge of teaching this lesson. Uh, and I just remember being a little, it was, it was uncomfortable because,
Starting point is 00:18:29 The lesson was, I just remember my dad schooling all of us going, if an adult ever asks you to take photos of yourself with no clothes on, you have to say no. Unless it's me. Otherwise, no, he didn't say that part, but yeah, I just remember my dad. It was a whole, like, long lesson about that. And I remember being like, awkward. Okay, dad, come on. you were kind of nudging them rolling your eyes
Starting point is 00:19:00 Okay, when are you going to say Just kidding Come on And that was the last Core Memory I have of Boy Scouts It's those three Well those are some

Starting point is 00:27:07 I was a Mormon kind of like white whippersnap, you know, like a Mormon. Just to make sure somebody probably went, whoa. Whoa. Whoa. No, you had to differentiate it from your regular voice. Exactly. Have you ever been to Salt Lake City?
Starting point is 00:27:24 Salt Lake City. No, but I've heard a song about it in the Book of Mormon. Salt Lake City, I did a show there. It's the only time I've ever been. And I got to say Salt Lake City is, I had some good barbecue there. Okay. South Carolina style. Really?
Starting point is 00:27:38 Yeah. Okay. He was before my show. and I walked there because I was hungry and me and me and Jim before the show were like we need some we need some nom-noms you need some nerdy nummies yeah and and there was still a couple hours before the show so I I went on a Google Maps and I said hey barbecue walked about a mile away and tell you what it's pretty good Salt Lake City though it's a lot of Mormons I was very I've heard like the you know stereotypical like it's we're all the Mormon
Starting point is 00:28:10 are. I didn't expect, though, like, how Mormon it actually was. The venue wouldn't serve alcohol, which kind of sucks. It was ran by Mormons. Yeah. They're all dressed in, like, the white, they're all like the Latter-day Saints. They're all Latter-day Saints. Or the, who are the guys that, the missionaries? Because the missionaries are the ones in, like, the white button-ups with the black ties. Yeah. Yeah. Do they have a special name? I thought they do. They go on mission, I know. Is it brother?
Starting point is 00:28:45 Aren't they brothers? They're all brothers. They're all brothers. He's like brother, brother, okay, okay. Isn't there, besides a missionary. Stealing from other cultures, but. My Spanish, uh, two, three, one of them, one of my Spanish teachers was a Mormon missionary. He would show us pictures from his, uh, his mission in Mexico.
Starting point is 00:29:05 I remember when Shay Carl's boy, uh, I think Sun Tart, Sun Tart, Sun Tart. Rock Tard? Who's the older one? That's Suntard. Okay, Sun Tard. I remember when Suntard went on mission for like two years. And I remember the vlog where he was leaving to go to South America on mission. And it was emotional, to say the least.
Starting point is 00:29:26 They grow up so fast. I actually, I can't believe. I think I was in high school when I was like I had a Shetard's run where there was like a few months, like maybe even half a year where I was like watching the Shatars. I never did. This was like a couple years ago when Prezo and Hoover were staying at my place and they just kept putting on Shay Tards in my living room. And I ended up like we literally just like sat down and they put it on as a joke at first. And then it was like, oh, four hours later of just kind of like watching Shay Tards.
Starting point is 00:30:00 But when Sun Tard went on one mission, it was watched that one and then when his wife had baby Tard or whichever one. Prince? No, no, no. And I just remember he's filming in the hospital before she gives birth. And I remember he made some joke that was just, we were all just like, whoa, whoa. Yeah, Shaycarl was a little, I mean, he used to, he was one of the founders, if not the founder of Maker Studios, which we love, you know. Which, I mean, deep, deep history with. Oh, yeah. Especially you.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Oh, yeah. Was Cindygo with Maker? We were under, I think, a subsidiary channel that was a part of Maker that was for lower talent or something. The others. Maybe we were a part of me. I pretty sure you were just straight a part of Maker. I remember we went to the studio and they were showing off their merchandising space, although at the time they were more showing that stuff off for the markiplier. Oh, because you went with.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Yeah. But they were riding their scooters. They had some foam swords lying about. I remember... They have a ball at that office, or they did. You've always told me... I wish I could have gone with you at the time. I don't think I knew you yet, but...
Starting point is 00:31:17 I just hadn't met you yet. Michael Boubley? Michael Bublae. Dude, I would listen to that song. I'd put it on my iPod, and I'd listen to it walking from my car to school. Dude, I liked, like, before the bell, there was, like, you can use your phone and whatever,
Starting point is 00:31:34 but it was, like, during school. hours, that shit better not see the light of day or else we're going to confiscate it. But listen to music, like, right before class or like the day gets started. No way with how prevalent cell phones actually are. And, you know, it always takes a while for society kind of catch up to the norm. Like, I didn't get an iPhone until after I graduated high school. So now with how big iPhones are. No, I had one in high school. I think I got my first one in high school. Because I had an Android up until that point. Yeah, it's one of those. I did switch.
Starting point is 00:32:05 I did have a phase where I had a like a one of the like a Google phone. And then I was like it's actually so much better and I enjoyed it for like a year. And then I went back to. I remember a couple. I liked my little my little blue messages, you know. Dude, honestly, I'm not kidding. Apple psychologically did a number on me with those blue messages because blue's nice. Back in like this back in probably 20.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Actually, I think it's when we live together still. So this would have been like 2017, early 2018. I went out and I needed a new phone. And for the first time, I was like, I'm going to get an Android, you know? Because I can pop an SD card in there. I like that, et cetera. And I got an Android. And I remember the first day of having it by like the evening.
Starting point is 00:32:57 I was like, I mean, it's really cool. But it just feels weird. It feels kind of weird. because I was, I'm just used to iPhone. And then I just remember my text messages. I remember knowing that they were coming through green and just seeing other people's messages. It did something to me. And after about two days, I went, I can't do it anymore.
Starting point is 00:33:18 And I went back to the store and I traded it out for an iPhone. And I just felt so much better when I powered up that iPhone. I was like, oh, my God. The uniformity of it is just, it's nice. The uniformity of the iPhone. Do you remember when there was like, like a stage when the iPhone first came out and then there was a lot of copycats but every single copycat that came out, androids included, would, um, would just, it would be such a delay on the
Starting point is 00:33:45 like motion of like the touchpad because a lot of them used actual like pressure touchpads instead of, I guess whatever Apple uses infrared. I don't know what the fuck they use. But you actually had the like, there was a lot of phones where you just get dead spots all throughout. Like, you wouldn't be able to scroll. You wouldn't be able to press just because you'd be pressing on it and it would just, uh, I wear it away out over time so it would become unusable. Yeah, I do remember the delay. Even like if you're like swiping, like scrolling, you know, there's a good like half a second
Starting point is 00:34:21 to a second delay of, of that sometimes. And I remember I did have one, um, had an Android that did have a really cool feature. that is not really a thing anymore as far as I know, but I did like where it was touchscreen, but if you pressed hard enough, it would click. Like, under the touchscreen was like something that, like, would give a mechanical click if you actually pushed hard enough.
Starting point is 00:34:45 So, like, you could do all the regular stuff just by, like, touching, but, like, to press and hold or to, like, do certain clicks. I don't remember you could, and you could feel that pop. It was just for, like, feedback. It was satisfying. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it was really nice.
Starting point is 00:35:00 It was really cool. And I do miss that. It took a while for phones to catch up to the fluidity of like the screen tech that Apple had. Like I think- Well, Apple has the specific thing where it's like it only recognizes your fingers because the screen uses a, I think it's detecting like the electricity that's in your body essentially. So if you use, that's why you can't use like a stylus or something because it's looking for that. What was it? Was it Samsung that had like the first kind of, there was like a brand that kind of like started to compete.
Starting point is 00:35:36 I know Android, but I thought there was like, was it just a Samsung Android or I'm trying to remember. Like there was, because you know, the Google Pixel and stuff came out, but there was a phone where it was like either you had an iPhone or this type of Android. I think Samsung. Yeah. Hey, Galaxy. Yes, that sounds right. I think that's what I got actually. The Samsung Galaxy and like the Samsung Galaxy S and all that.
Starting point is 00:36:02 The Galaxy also was the one that was exploding because the battery. Do you? Sele-O Green's phone exploding? Rest in peace, dude. He killed him. Killed him. Have, do you remember this? I feel like I have a memory of this and maybe I just misunderstood it at the time, but I feel like...
Starting point is 00:36:21 Lay it on me. There was a period in Android in the beginning where like now Android is like, you know, it's like there's iPhone and then there's Android where Android is like the I don't know if it's the operating system or whatever but it's the green alien man well do you remember droid it was like a separate thing and it was like
Starting point is 00:36:40 a like it was just droid there was Android and then droid and droid was like a type of phone I think and it was the green alien dude was it was it this is it the same yeah yeah droid was like I had a droid yeah and I had a droid hold on let me
Starting point is 00:36:58 Let me look this up, dude, because like 100%, sorry, I pulled some X-Dine files out of my pocket. Keep it safe. Keep his secret. Gandalf talking to Frodo Baggins? Yes, here we go. The Motorola Droid, or Droid One, is a seminal 2009 Android smartphone that helps propel Android to mainstream popularity as a key Verizon exclusive alternative to the iPhone released on October 17, 2009. It was renowned for its droid does marketing campaign, premium build, and slide out QWERTY keyboard. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:41 Yes. I remember this because I remember like droid being separate from Android. Is it just rumors or are they actually like is iPhone doing is going to have like a keypad version or fold? I guess there's there's the folded thing that I've heard about. Yeah. I've seen the leaks where it's like iPhone or Apple introducing the flip fold version of the iPhone where the screen folds. Which I feel like that is, as cool as that is, I feel like it's a gimmick. I want a gimmick phone.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Me too. I want to like a slide or a flip, but done in like the Apple quality where it's like, oh, it's smoother or whatever. I want to pay $3,000 for a phone, man. Yeah, me too. I want to put. Every few years. Or else they'll, I forget if they got in trouble for this, right?
Starting point is 00:38:31 Purposely. Making it shitty. Yeah. Didn't they get in trouble for it? for that? They did. And that is like a thing. That's a known thing that Apple would do, especially to Max, which is bullshit, where it's like, basically, yeah, they degrade the speed and everything of the system as time goes on, so you're kind of forced to get a new one when it doesn't have to. And your brain goes, oh, my computer's getting old. I need a new one. But do you, I, it doesn't happen
Starting point is 00:38:57 as much anymore just because I mean computers are better, but like, you know, I can still use a computer I got in 2020 that works pretty well in 2026 where I feel like my dad would get you know we had Max growing up because of his job doing architecture stuff and I feel like on those back then you'd get it and it would be so fucking fast and awesome and literally like two years later it's unusable I did the only max I ever had were the ones that our school provided in high school for like the broadcast journalism the one with the little like dome base with the stem and then like the flat screen that sticks out. They were all like white and it was all yeah they were all like the computer was the screen or whatever. Um, they each had their own little nicknames. Classic. Macintyre,
Starting point is 00:39:45 Macabee, you know, stuff like that or whatever. Wonderful time. But yeah, I, I, I had windows, like, window, like throughout the entirety of like my personal life, I finally got my own Mac going into college. I had like a Macbook class that I used for college. And, uh, I do feel like when I got I feel like the lifespan of that thing was six months. I feel like it degraded fast. Like MacBooks, not, I think ever since they introduced the,
Starting point is 00:40:14 like the M chips, like the M1, M2, M3, I feel like those actually have like a very good longevity, at least what I've noticed, because I have an older M chip and it still works great. But those older Macbooks, dude, just fucking,
Starting point is 00:40:31 I felt like he had a year license. Yeah, I don't know. It just started getting slow and like getting really hot and not keeping a charge as long in shit. That was a huge problem was not keeping the charge. My sister got a MacBook when she graduated high school. And I remember it was like such a huge deal. And like this is old Macbook. Because it's expensive.
Starting point is 00:40:53 The chargers, the computer itself. The chargers are like a hundred bucks. Yeah. That's one of the biggest bullshit things is how expensive Apple would make charges. It's a premium. product. And we're not giving you a charger in the box anymore. What I really liked was when they switched the MacBook to charging via USBC. It's like, oh, finally. And then they were like, actually, we're taking that back and doing proprietary chargers again. So the new MacBooks use
Starting point is 00:41:17 proprietary chargers, which, by the way, I lost mine. And so it's expensive? Very expensive. And you can go on Amazon and get like a third party one, but they don't do the job as well. And also, I'm surprised Apple hasn't done the bullshit yet where if you try to use like a third party one it just won't let you Oh yeah I feel like there was a moment Where third party cables were up in the air With iPhones am I wrong about that
Starting point is 00:41:47 I felt like there was a period where it was like Oh you you're using these cables No I think the I think they were just such cheap cables Because I remember you bought one you bought it for like a week Dude you'd be lucky if it lasted months but like it would be like uh the week and then it just started to do you remember the era of like iPhone chargers you'd always have an iPhone charging you have to unplug it
Starting point is 00:42:09 and like flip it around and plug it back in and then like if the cable ought to be in a specific position and if you moved it would stop charging you're like god damn it still does that I just had a charger do that uh like recently and now I only have one left and yeah it's just the other one it's like you plug it in and it goes and then every now and they go and it drains my phone's battery like a motherfucker or if it's the wrong charger.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Had to throw it out. She's no use. I have the, my iPhone has the USBC. I can't wait to get into that generation. It's, USBC so, thank you to Europe for forcing Apple to do that.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Thank you, Europe. That was kind of fucking awesome, where they're like, no, you can't monopolize a charging port and make everyone buy your own charger. You got to use USBC like everyone else. And Apple was like, dang it, dang it.
Starting point is 00:42:59 So now you can, just use a, you can get a fast charging USBC cable super cheap. That's not Apple brand and there it is. It's rare, but you love to see a country thinking of the consumers and thinking of the citizenship instead of, in most cases, usually what it is, especially what it is here in America for the most part, this kind of like quasi-olyarkey or just straight up oligarchy right now. Yeah, it's just, it's not as, well, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, It's pretty non-hidden now. It's pretty just in your face with it. He's lying, I mean, he's just, I mean, we have a, he's just, I mean, it's happened in the past, I'm sure, like, this is just politics. You're always lining the pockets of your buddies. It's like, this is just the first time where it's blatant and that the American public, for the most part, I don't want to say doesn't seem to care, but there's just, like, nothing to, you know, we've joked about in the past, and it's always like an example brought up. But, you know, just kind of like Jimmy Carter's peanut farm. Right?
Starting point is 00:44:02 Penis farm. Penis farm. You know, that or, and I think of Barack Obama's tan suit. I know these are eye rolls to a lot of people's like, you always bring these up. But it's just like, it shows of just like sometimes the reach people would go to find controversy in politics where you're not, you're not having to reach too far these days. It's pretty much handed to us. Like, here, have some more controversy. Here, have another day where the internet is shitting.
Starting point is 00:44:30 awful garbage into your ears and eyes. But the difference is like the controversy that was like back then about getting mad about Obama wearing a tan suit, that same group of people now don't like when now when there's actually real controversy, it's like, oh, come on. Like the two that come to mind and there's a bunch to choose from, you know, one is of course like the crypto scam that Trump himself did. The rugpole? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Which is just insane. Melania had a good coin. Dude, I made millions off it. Because that's so blatant. And then, fuck, there was another example, and I just had a brain fart, unfortunately. That's disgusting. It was more recent. I mean, when that comes to-
Starting point is 00:45:16 No, no, when he's suing the IRS. And so all of our taxpayer money might go into the pocket of Donald Trump if he ends up winning this lawsuit. Because that would, I think the money just comes out of the IRS treasury, which is money where does the IRS get their money you know so that's where that's going to come from yeah so he's suing the IRS and like the only thing I can think of is like it's like don't don't be rooting and again maybe I have the story wrong I've only seen like snippets but from what it looks like that's he is suing the IRS that's where the money would be coming from yeah so why why would I be cheering for a
Starting point is 00:45:55 Dude, I already don't think my tax paying dollars go to much of what I want them to go to. Why the fuck would I want them to go to this? I just hate how blatant things are now without a care in the world. Like there's no pushback. And if there is, it's just kind of like, me. I think there's a rumble going on, though. You know, a lot of people are saying the midterms is going to be a bloodbath, apparently. It's hard for me to trust political commentary.
Starting point is 00:46:21 I don't trust polls and I don't trust. I just kind of wait for it to happen and see what it's. Well, it's just been, the rug has been pulled so many times. And for me, it's more like I also, you know, what I see is what I see online, which is, you know, never an accurate representation fully of like the full picture because algorithms feed you what they know you want to see. And then also we live somewhere, we live like in Los Angeles. So very different from a lot of the rest of the country.
Starting point is 00:46:50 So, you know, I kind of have to wait until election day every time to kind of see what the, what the, what the, what the deal is. And, um, I think like, overall, um, I also had a brain fart and it just, it just went, that, those were the gods of podcasting going, okay, okay, you've, you've, you've, you've, you've, you've said some things. Get back to Apple. Talk about Apple more. Okay. Okay. So, I mean, it connects because it's capitalism. I, yeah. And I'm, um, I'm an Apple. I'm a, as much as it. people might get mad at me for this one, but I'm a bit of an Apple supremacist at this point.
Starting point is 00:47:32 Hey, we grew up in a capitalist society. We rely on that capitalism, you know. I have flip-flopped back and forth between Apple and Microsoft throughout my teen and adult years. And at this point, I'm pretty solidly an Apple dude, specifically because, of what we do for work. But if you're a gamer. Exactly. See, I'm not really a gamer. So Apple, I like just because Apple for creative stuff is, in my opinion, the obvious choice to go with.
Starting point is 00:48:12 I don't like the price. I think Apple has gotten away for much too long of overpricing everything because it's Apple. And it's like, that's quality. It's Apple. The problem is as long as people buy it and us. They're going to. Yeah. We're going to.
Starting point is 00:48:31 I have a Mac studio. We have one here. You want this apple, don't you, Matt? You want this apple. It's like I'm in the fucking garden of eating. I know. And then, uh, the snake. Yeah, it's the snake.
Starting point is 00:48:44 And they're dangling that in front of me. Steve Jobs as an anthropomorphize snake. It's the, with big muscles and stuff. Literally. Apple's the forbidden fruit. Like, like, he has like, let's say it's a snake he has a 24 pack oh we were so close to saying the same number i was doing in the six pack i was going divisible by six i should have i actually should have said 24 and that's what
Starting point is 00:49:06 i was thinking of first and for some reason i said 25 like an idiot well 25 could be one big pack up top oh i like that i like a solid pack maybe it's like then like the chest doesn't count as a pack like any packs no so there's like a pack right here and then 24 down rose you know my uh snake Lenny. He has a six-pack? Well, kind of. He's a corn snake. And sometimes he will like, he's like doing curl-ups and shit. Dude, I got to show you some videos I have where he's actually like, so he likes to climb up the like the glass of the tank and then because he likes getting up in the crack at the very top corner and been just like like being up there and hiding. But he, he's not strong enough to hold himself up there for long. So he'll start like, see him like sliding. Well, he'll start like,
Starting point is 00:49:54 tensing all his muscles and you can see him like go from like a smooth line to like this squiggly thing and then usually he'll drop down but still be holding on like the upper portion or this face like fighting for his life and I was going to say when he drops down you can see his belly against the glass and the corn snake pattern they call them corn snakes because their belly looks like corn like uh and actually you could have some sort of lip or rim like thing up there at some point I have a there's like a hook and that's what he puts himself through okay but he's He can't hold his whole body up. I got to show you some of the videos I have.
Starting point is 00:50:27 He's got to work out more. He's got to get fit. You got to give him a little. He's strong. He's very strong for how small he is. Have you held him in the, and he's, yes. And he will.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Has he gripped you? Not, not, not, not. He's got them grippers. It's, it's not that. It's, uh,
Starting point is 00:50:40 it's not the grip. He's never, like, his thickness. Like, you can just feel how taught he is. It's, it's when I've held him and he decides, like, I'm going to make a dash for it and tries to get away.
Starting point is 00:50:51 It's like, shocked at how how strong he actually can... Does he just like go when he tenses up? And then he just goes... Yeah, when he tenses up. Does it scare you at first?
Starting point is 00:51:03 Whoa, buddy. And he tries to like fight his way out especially in the very beginning of like holding him and he it really throws you off. Does he know that he can bite you? I like to believe that he does know that. He's just never felt that
Starting point is 00:51:20 he needs to... He doesn't see you as food. He's so sweet. He's so sweet. He's, he's, He's never even attempted to bite me. Corn snakes are the sweetest little chunguses in any barn. Look on screen right now. That's Lenny.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Look at that sweet little chungis. He's so sweet. And go ahead and take a look at how adorable these ads are. Yeah, they're... Are they adorable? I don't know. Dude, I really don't know. Hi, I'm Eric Voss from New Rock Stars.

Starting point is 00:56:09 Because we got I guess But a bigger You know A meme update You know That That peanut penis
Starting point is 00:56:17 picture really does numbers and has found its way across TikTok, Twitter. It's everywhere. It's everywhere. And that makes me so happy to see. Like a little tear running down. Yeah. The burnt penis, he's the streamer who in a recent episode of a certain series that's not released yet, wink wink, you made the astute observation that the burnt peanut is essentially the annoying orange for, you know.
Starting point is 00:56:47 this generation. Yeah. If the annoying orange was a little less woke. You know, like, the only reason it's,
Starting point is 00:56:55 is we, a lot of people, you know, cringe at whatever annoying orange is because, you know, they just, when you were in it,
Starting point is 00:57:03 at the time, annoying orange, he was annoying, you know, to a certain point, but there was, I'm sure, an age range of people
Starting point is 00:57:09 that were like, I want to see him collab with, with Shane Dawson. Pretty sure. You probably did. And there was, I think there was like a,
Starting point is 00:57:17 thing, you know, it's always the same thing and it's going to probably happen with peanut too where like at the time, annoying orange was self-aware. It's like, it's this guy doing an orange that's a, you would think it to be, and I think a lot of people took it as, oh, he's self-aware of how goofy it is and that's what makes it fun. The same thing with the peanut, he's self-aware of how goofy it is, that's what makes it fun, but I think that history will do its number and he will be the annoying orange of this generation. Well, basically, love them or hate him. The, the The burnt peanut, a long time ago, not a long time ago, actually, but several months ago on an episode of Super Mega Jr., which is the version of this podcast, every episode has an extra chunk on Patreon. On that, we were talking about it, and there was a prompt for me to Photoshop a penis onto him.
Starting point is 00:58:07 So after the episode, I went and I sat down on the computer, and I found a good screen grab of him on stream. I isolated it on a white background and I don't even know where I got the penis from at this point but I found an uncircumcised penis online flaccid and I had to find one that was at roughly the same angle I found it changed the colors on it so it matched the peanut put the penis on it we tweeted it at them didn't get much traction tried again a little more traction not from him
Starting point is 00:58:40 No, but it finally started popping off. Where like people would respond to it. And now every, dude, I'm not kidding. Every single time I see a burnt peanut like thread pop up on my feet. Because a lot of times I'll see like Dick Serto or some other like big account posting about like streamer news. It would be like the burnt peanut blah blah blah blah blah with like 50,000 likes and I'll go down in the replies. And like I'll just be I'll know it's going to be there. I'll scroll down, boom, there it is.
Starting point is 00:59:12 Every time. And for the longest time, we didn't know if the peanut himself had ever truly seen it. But recently, I think both of us happened upon a clip. You sent it to me. Was that the first time you saw it? You sent it and you said, bro. And I saw it was a burnt peanut clip. And you were excited because I always send you burnt peanut clips.
Starting point is 00:59:33 And they're always staring. I'm recording with my phone while I'm watching on the TV while having KFC and Popeyes combined. You can screen record. I keep telling you. Because I like their chicken. not their mashed potatoes. I have to get the sides from... Sorry, I'm just saying you can...
Starting point is 00:59:44 I've shown you how to screen record on the iPhone. You don't have to always film your... It's shaky. It's hard to hear what's happening. You're laughing and breathing into the microphone, so... Okay, well, I sent you this one clip, and I finally got the screen recording thing down, and it was the first time you were able to see a clip clearly.
Starting point is 01:00:01 And go ahead and play the clip. Red or Red or Red or... I don't know if you're allowed to show this on stream. Hello? Don't worry, I took care of it. I I once I I oh you blurt it out
Starting point is 01:00:16 okay thank God yeah it did it I did it it so uh
Starting point is 01:00:18 it's uh she she's so that is proof unless that's a really good
Starting point is 01:00:30 AI or like no it's it's uh after effects it's real his friend
Starting point is 01:00:36 uh I guess printed the photo out framed it showed it to him but censored it censored it
Starting point is 01:00:41 so he could show it on stream and what I love the most is right before he shows the picture, the burnt peanut goes, because he knows what picture it's going to be. That made me,
Starting point is 01:00:53 I was like, so he's known about this picture then. He's like, that wasn't the first time he's seen it. He's probably seen it when we reply to him with it. He probably sees it when people spam it in the replies. And guys, you're doing a great job with that.
Starting point is 01:01:05 Let's keep it. Let's keep it on. Do you still have the PSD? I do. You know, that's history. You're going to have to give that to like the, the,
Starting point is 01:01:13 the Smith's Maybe you know we should we should have we should have put some fine some small text on the photo but it's like super mega subscribe to super mega dude now it's it happened it happened with the E and it's in it happens and I've seen several where it's happened with the peanut one just the layers upon layers of different user names it'll be like a screenshot of it. I'll see someone reply with the picture but it'll be like 70 screenshots in so the compression is horrible and you see just overlaid TikTok usernames just like over each other
Starting point is 01:01:47 just fucking fighting for space. And sometimes they'll be even flipped. So I'm like, I guess someone posted a flipped one. And then someone flipped it back. And so the username is now mirrored. And yeah, that's, you know, fun fact, if you guys have seen that picture, didn't know where it came from. That's us. And you'll soon be
Starting point is 01:02:03 able to go to the burnt penis exhibit at the Smithsonian. Well, let's not spoil too much. You're right. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, that's my bad. I mean, we do want to tease it soon, but I don't want to count our eggs before they're hatched, right? You know, because what if at the last second, Smithsonian goes,
Starting point is 01:02:24 guys, actually, we don't really want to do this exhibit anymore, you know? Well, he's a part of history. I mean, they can't just erase the burnt peanut. What are they going to do? Start tearing down all the burnt peanut statues around the United States? Well, that'd be a damn mistake. Because what's going to happen? What's going to happen if you tear down the burnt peanut statues?
Starting point is 01:02:43 Well, gamers are going to rise up. The gamers that have been silenced by Gamergate and DEI, something like that, I'm sure, I don't know. I don't even know if they know what they're mad at. If they made Breaking Bad nowadays, Hank wouldn't be in the DEA. He'd be in the DEI, and he'd be trying to get Walter to have gay sex with him. Marie would probably be black. God. They'd make Gus Black this time.
Starting point is 01:03:11 and gay Los Poyos Hermanos Dude The The pure fact of like A character being black In some ways
Starting point is 01:03:27 Like an affront To someone's like Life is I think I think should 100% Like Say for itself
Starting point is 01:03:39 What it is saying I mean I don't see any reason Why it shouldn't but here we are. Let me guess, dude, they're going to make the restaurant in Spanish this time. Wow. They really have to show this.
Starting point is 01:03:54 Wow. And let me guess. They're going to put a bunch of scenes where people are speaking Spanish now. How about instead of New Mexico, it's no more Mexico only America. Whoa! That's the name of the state. My name is Walter Hartwell White. I live at 308.
Starting point is 01:04:09 Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. No more Mexico, only America. United States. That would be great, dude. And I feel like Vince, you know, I know your little pluribus showed it and do too well. So if you want to go ahead and give us a ring a ding ding, you know where to reach us. Yeah, I'm not so sure when you're going to see another season. I'll work on it.
Starting point is 01:04:27 I'm just not sure, you know, it's going to come out next year or anything like that. I mean, have you seen what the, what pluribus is the release? Don't kiss the microphone. I'm sorry, dude. That's gross. I'm sorry. Remember we started the episode with that. I know, I know, I know.
Starting point is 01:04:42 I mean, you try to warn me about it, and I threw it to the wind, and that's my bad. That's all right. That's all right. But they basically were like, because it's Apple TV, and they don't have to abide by the old format of, like, cable networks where it's like, you have to have a season every year. And they're like, fuck. It's Apple TV. So now they're talking about season two of pluribus, maybe not coming out until, like, you know, late 2027, early 2028, maybe 2029.
Starting point is 01:05:16 And I hate seeing release dates now because I can only go, oh my God, I'm going to be this old when that finally comes. I'm going to be like mid-30s or oh my God, is this, am I, like, in my head, am I not going to get another, and not just me, but the fans, is there not going to be another like fallout game until I'm 40? Or the next Grand Theft Auto, for example, it's coming out right now, and we're both in our 30s. The next iteration is coming out right now? I've heard good things, and there's been a lot of talks that they're, like, pressing the big green button for marketing for this summer,
Starting point is 01:05:55 which means it's a big push that it is coming out on that date. If they start going forward with the marketing, they can't really delay it. I feel like they only do that if they're, like, pretty sure at that point. We'll see June, July. If they're not marketing by June, July, I'd say at least by July. I'd say at least by July Yeah, I'm not looking too good Because internally if they feel like
Starting point is 01:06:16 Even there's a chance it's gonna be delayed I don't think they'd be blasting the market Because think about how much money They got to put into that marketing budget They don't want to do that again Yeah, because that is I mean they have a shit ton of money too Yeah, but the amount that they put into the marketing budget
Starting point is 01:06:33 A lot of the time marketing budget Rivals the actual production budget in terms of like where it's like it feels like 50% will go to marketing. I know there's like it's been, I don't know if this was actually proven, but it's it's known at least that Microsoft puts, used to put a lot into like marketing budget for their big franchises and stuff. So it's just kind of like, do they own Rockstar?
Starting point is 01:07:02 No, they own like they were doing, this would be about Halo. Right. So like when they wanted Halo to make a big, launch, you know, not only did, I guess they had like a budget, you know, to make the game. I don't, I don't know if this is true. I remember, I don't want to list the figure, but I remember it was a big figure for like Halo Infinite Marketing. And like that's why it was kind of like a big, yikes when it didn't like do numbers.
Starting point is 01:07:29 Still did well, but. Yeah, well, I mean, yeah, marketing is not always going to equal success. Dude, the worst is when the marketing department puts in a lot of money because I guess it was a movie that, and I wish I had an example to have up the top of my head, but it's just a movie that you know you're not going to see that keeps getting marketed on like Twitter, TikTok, like Melania's real, yeah, Milania is actually a perfect example. I'm getting it nonstop. Who wants to watch that? Here we go again. Here we go again. Dude. God, she's so stupid. fucking hater
Starting point is 01:08:07 sorry I was taken over by a truth sim I got my sim card hacked and it made me tell the truth sorry I'm sorry making my lip quiver with truth yeah fuck her um
Starting point is 01:08:26 absolutely yeah I lost millions on Malania coin I mean that's the reason I love you before that we're still bent out of shape I mean she was so fun before that she she um she did that thing and she was a she was a model at one point that's badass yeah like a European model yo and she fucked the president yes she did yeah several times and other another high interest people within government and high class society as well but ended up with the president
Starting point is 01:08:57 yes for a second I thought you were something about the president fucked other people in and high up society and I said no come on Ryan don't spread rumors Bubba. Well, that's not a rumor. It's all right if it's true. Yeah, he fucked the guy that played Bubba from Forrest Gump. They had gay sex and it's a... They don't release the footage yesterday.
Starting point is 01:09:20 The footage is out. Oh, yeah. He does a voice and everything. He made him act as Bubba. Oh, my God. Yeah. Oh, my God. And then he was a bad impression he was doing, but Trump was trying to do Forrest Gump.
Starting point is 01:09:35 Yeah, it was, for his Trump. Yes. He can't help himself. And then it was, the tape was called, the sex tape's called Bubba Trump's, uh, shrimp and co. And, uh, there's a reason they called, uh, they call a shrimp. I'll tell you that. You can do just about anything with my shrimp. Go, go ahead.
Starting point is 01:09:52 You know, go ahead and, uh, have a little shrimp cocktail if you'd like. Dude, dude, you know what I would really love to do? Do an uncle's sleepover where we don't, of course, watch the fucking part. But if there's like a Forrest Gump porn, I want to see like the five, ten minutes of like, oh, hey, Bubba, you know, I was just cleaning the floors with this toothbrush. That's not a toothbrush, Forrest. Why? Why?
Starting point is 01:10:21 There's a lot of forest. Like an exact carbon copy of him walking in the room. Forrest, what are you doing? Oh, hey, Forrest. I'm just cleaning the floor with a toothbrush. Dude. That's not a toothbrush. That's your cock.
