Starting point is 00:00:18 Nature's, nature's aquarium gravel. I think you're used to say next time on America's next podcast. That's exactly what I was. Fred Zeppelin in Cooper Black. This candle smells. like aerolingus an effort of lettuce pit bull nope i'm out luke skywalker crapping in a corner f jury and more on today's the morning stream and more on this episode of the morning stream i just kept hearing it i'm ducking and everything i got scared i drop my high pocket
Starting point is 00:00:48 pay me a hoagie make it snappy The Morning Stream, now gluten-free. Good morning, everyone. Welcome back to TMS. It is the morning stream for what is today, the 30th of March. The 30th, almost done with March. Yep. Because, you know.
Starting point is 00:01:20 One more. We're done. Then you move on to April, and then April, you get the Easter and the whatnot, you know. That's right. And we get our Easter. quick we get our Easter this Sunday so it's not even like all right let's settle into April let's let's kind of take stock of what we've got here this month it's like all right we're in April Easter is it really Easter this week this coming Sunday yeah this coming Sunday is
Starting point is 00:01:44 Easter Sunday oh my gosh hide those eggs that's Van yeah he's stoked he's ready man are you kidding he's got he's at this new stage where everything is cool and exciting where as if you'd asked him three months ago he could care less about a holiday like but something clicked and he understands that little window between I could care less about things which which means Christmas should be interesting which means you know it's just be excited about everything here's the other thing I've noticed about that kid um just a delight to be around never cries never upside he's just a sweet little kid however most little kids at least have some experience in their young one to three year range where they get to be in crowds or be a part
Starting point is 00:02:29 of a place that's supposed to be quiet, whether that's like at a church or like at a funeral or like at a something where you got to keep the kid quiet. A movie, movie theater. There's another one, right. And the way you, the way the kid learns that is they go to these things and then you're doing a lot of shh, no quiet, you're teaching them when it's appropriate to be loud or not. Because he was born right before the pandemic and there have been no big gatherings for him since then, very few quote-unquote playdates, that sort of stuff.
Starting point is 00:03:02 What does that look like when he goes into his first thing where he needs to be kind of quiet? I don't know if he, I don't think he can do it. He's just going to walk in there going, he's not going to understand. He's his high to everybody. I wonder if there's a way you can work towards that, right? Like, you know. Yeah, how do I artificially do this? You could go see an afternoon movie where there's probably only going to be three people in the theater and you'll still be far away from everybody.
Starting point is 00:03:33 True, but would I be as motivated to quiet him down when there's less, you know what I mean? Like if there's... Yes, you should be. Yes. Yes. Yes. And that's the problem with America. Yeah. That's true. I don't know. It's just not, it's an odd thing I never thought about. When my kids were little, we were always at places where we had to teach them that quiet was important here. And then outside of here, you can be loud again or whatever. And the thing is, he's pretty, like, if you sit him down in front of Moana, which we did yesterday while he was here for a bit, quiet is a, is a, is a voiceless bird.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Just doesn't say anything. Just sits there and watches it and smiles and whatever. He loves that movie. He sees Maui and gets all excited, right? But he doesn't talk or whatever. So maybe he's fine. and maybe I don't need to worry about it. You'd probably be fine.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Take him to a Pitbull concert because there's nobody making noise or applauding or cheering in one of those. Yeah, nobody actually applauds at a pit bull concert. I don't even know why they went. I assume it's free, right? If you go to Pitbull concert. You go see Pitbull, yes. Yeah, nobody pays for tickets to see Pitbull, right?
Starting point is 00:04:41 Only if it's featuring ludicrous. Is someone going to write in? My favorite recurring joke, by the way, on Big Mouth. That's pretty good. Jay's Pitbull, named Featuring Ludacris. Yeah, I like that as well. But do any, does anybody out there,
Starting point is 00:04:56 are you going to write in and go to bat for a pit bull? Is that going to happen? I don't think, well, sure, maybe. Maybe somebody will, but I really, really doubt it. I feel like that's not a hill anyone wants to die on. I say bring it on. I'm ready to defend myself and the show against any pit bull lovers. I, you know what, somebody's going to write in and say,
Starting point is 00:05:15 I saw Pitbull at something in Miami four years ago. it was a fine he did a fine job blah blah blah and you know what go ahead more for you yeah you may have just saved somebody time the way you just described it is exactly exactly yeah so that's fine yeah and don't and nobody tell us about how great the dogs are we know that we're not talking about the dogs we're talking about the man named pit bull okay is he's a pit bull right is he is a pit bull uh rayner excuse me ripley who van calls rippy which is fantastic he is uh or she rather is a wimeriner and then and then rayner is a strange bat some sort of large four-legged bat without wings wingless bat yeah some kind of wingless black bat who smells funny most of the time anyway hey it's a show we're going to do one and we're glad to be here it's tuesday uh no justin today though but we do wish him well winded is back he's driving today to his final destination or that is to say his next destination in life life. He's recently purchased home in Texas. So we hope it all goes fine. Apparently he'll be
Starting point is 00:06:24 like literally slamming doors shut in his car as we're talking today. Oh, really? Okay. Yeah. Getting out of there. Actually packing things up and loading up the family truckster. Yep. Putting granny on top. Uh-huh. For the holiday road drive down to Austin. I want him to play that in the car. He won't, but I want him to. He won't. He won't. I'm sure they'll talk about nothing but politics on the way.
Starting point is 00:06:52 I'm sure that's exactly right. I'm sure that's what Ashley wants to do. I pinged him last night and just said, hey, I know you're probably moving soon. Are we anywhere near like wanting to do a show tomorrow? And he says, uh, that's all I had for a while. And then later he said, yeah, I don't know how this is going to work. I'm probably going to be, I'm like, no pressure. You're good.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Drive. Yep. Just get on that road. That's what it worked out really well to do the, um, had ANTP's off week be last night. Yeah, which I stupidly didn't remember. And so I'm like, Brian, where's my files I'm supposed to review Brian? I was freaking out last night thinking I was going to screw something up.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Thank you for asking me at 4.30 or whatever. Yeah, it was getting late. It was more like three something. But yeah, like I was like, I got to get these done. I've got to listen to these. I've got to do judging tonight. I'm back. I don't have any plumbing or power outage today.
Starting point is 00:07:44 I'm ready to roll. You know what? You had a perfectly. caromuland explanation you weren't there for the last episode when I issued the challenge it was a it was a absolutely justifiable question on your part so yeah it all worked out but uh I hope he he gets there and that there aren't squatters um what else I hope his pipes are good you know they had that weird winter thing so I hope that's all good and uh what else I wish him luck living very close to his podcasting wife brand brushwood
Starting point is 00:08:16 That's right. And I hope he's okay with the extra dose of country he's going to get down there, like music. It's fine. I, you know, whatever. I don't hate country. Yeah, Austin, though. Austin is. Oh, they're all over the place, but they got the city limits. They are all over the place. They got the Austin City Limits, which is like all country all the time. Definitely not all the country all the time. Oh, isn't it? I thought it was. Isn't that all it is? No, no. A lot of great rock and blues bands play in Austin City Limits. And it's great. I've played in Austin City Limits. And it's great. I've played in Austin City Limits.
Starting point is 00:08:47 No way, really? What'd you do that? Yeah. What'd you play? Play trivia in Austin City Limits. Two times, two different years. And Brian Brushwood was there for the year that we took home the top prize. Well, in my head, it's a thing on TV and it's only country people.
Starting point is 00:09:03 It is. Why? And if you look at it, you'll see just as many appearances by Lyle Lovett as, as, like, I'm trying to think of a good example. example of somebody with the old 97s or uh never heard of them uh okay or a rock band okay a rock band oh yeah i mean i'm not going to say something like the beetles or lead zepplin because they've never appeared on there i'm trying to think of like um you know blues traveler would appear on austin see that or give your rave on blues traveler is the one with the there's the big pepper fat guy right what was his name. John Popper. John Popper.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Not fat anymore. Nine-inch nails has appeared on Austin City Limits. What? What? Yeah. Wow. I want to F you like barbecued chicken or whatever. I want to if you in my back of my truck. I want
Starting point is 00:10:00 to take you and meet my mother. Nice. So, all right. Well, I've cleared that up then. Stevie Ray Vaughn, that kind of stuff. Okay. All right. Yeah, exactly. So, no, I mean, I think anywhere outside of Austin, you'd be absolutely right. Country music predominant. But Austin, especially all the bars on, crap, is it Fifth Avenue, 6th Avenue?
Starting point is 00:10:26 It's a really, really cool street that's lined with bars, with live music going on almost seven nights a week. Maybe not so much right now. But you go in one bar, you're hearing rock, you go in another bar, you're hearing techno, you go in another bar, you're hearing blues. you go on another one. I mean, it's, um... Sounds all right. Yeah, it's, it's a, it's a great, it's so, it's the un-Texorcist place of Texas. It's kind of, that's the bar, that's the street I always hear about when people talk about South by Southwest, everyone just congregates down there and...
Starting point is 00:10:58 Yeah, 6th Street, I think it is. Rips that place in part. It's funny, because we have a 6th Avenue and I, that's why I second guess myself. Yeah, codes from home, codes from home, uh, confirmed 6th Street. That's right. TVZGon reminds us that Texas has conquered, defeated COVID, clearly, because they opened everything. Clearly, yes. So I'm sure there'll be no. I keep hearing all this. We got everybody. We're close now. So don't F this up. We got this talk of a third wave because people are being dumb shits in
Starting point is 00:11:23 the spring. Can we please just try to hold back just a tiny bit, a little longer? The finish line is inside, so let's screw this up. Yeah. Can y'all just get your vaccines? Let's beef it up. Beef it a little. Just a little bit of beef. Finally, Colorado this week opens it up to everybody 16 and over. Nice. But once a vaccine can get it. Well, that means you're only two weeks behind us. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Pretty good. Three million people more or whatever. Yeah, that's true. I really want to, I want to get there and I don't want everyone to eff it up before we get there is what I'm saying. Right. Can we try not to eff it up, everybody? Can we all come together? Let's try.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Please. Can we please? Hold hands. and make it so Brian can successfully navigate his way to Europe this year. It'd be nice. Speaking of which, I guess you've been doing all sorts of plans. How's that going for you? Yeah, it's going well.
Starting point is 00:12:20 Last night was basically, instead of watching something that I was planning on watching for recommendals, we laid out the full itinerary of what we want to see, where we want to go, starting in Dublin going counterclockwise around the country and of course ending back up in Dublin but seeing
Starting point is 00:12:45 the cliffs of mower we're going to go out to Octo Luke's Island yeah what's Octo Octo where Luke Skywalker
Starting point is 00:12:58 lived and drink Walrus milk Oh that's the Walrus Milk Islands okay Yep that's the the Skellig Michael which I'm going to have to send you a link to the video. Let me see if I can find it really quick
Starting point is 00:13:10 because it would make for great audio of the show. Okay. And I'll talk about it while. Are you allowed to take porgs home? You're probably not allowed to even touch a pork. We can take porgs home. Oh, you can need to take porgs and or leave porgs? Is that the plan?
Starting point is 00:13:26 That's right. Oh, ICORD, don't worry. We've already, like, we're locking down reservations for today. We're locking down reservations. For listeners at home, ICORs in our chat room, And that's why Brian is speaking to it, this disembodied human beings. That's right. Icor.
Starting point is 00:13:40 Hi, car. Just in case you think I'm radar all of a sudden talking to Icor on the telephone. Who is the guy called it? Icarcour. Sparky. Sparky. Yeah. Sparky.
Starting point is 00:13:51 We're all out of toilet paper or whatever and you had to get more. That's right. All right. So I sent you a link in our in our Discord. We can click. Have. Yes. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Clicking. Clicking. Of course I want to open it, Discord. Okay, here it is. So I'm going to play this. Blinks are spoopy. Here we go. Visiting Skellig Michael, a safety guide from the OPW.
Starting point is 00:14:23 I'd say jump maybe a minute into this, because you're going to just get some beautiful aerial view. Okay. It is pretty cute. Michael to the monastery, and some 12,000 visitors of all ages visit the Skellig annually and negotiate these steps safely and without undue difficulty. However, if you are particularly unfit, have vertigo or are compromised medically, you may find climbing these steps difficult or beyond your capabilities.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Skellig is not a place for young children, unless you're completely confident of looking after them on a steep island where there are no safety rail, or barriers on the ancient hands. Unless you can attach them with a rope. That's what they did in this shot, too. There are no visitor facilities of any kind on the island. There is no water, food, or shelter. You will be on a remote barren rock exposed to the weather.
Starting point is 00:15:20 You'll have to shit in the corner if you find a corner of the shit. Yeah. I mean, basically, you're there an hour and a half boat ride to this island and an hour and a half back and then two hours on the island. no bathrooms the entire time. So five hours, you're holding it. Yeah. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:15:40 I'm okay with that. But if you're not, if you're... If you're feeling, you know, if you got a little bit of the old regular regularity there, you may want to... Blatterly challenge, you may want to stock up on Depends. How high up, I guess you go all the way to the top there, right? Looks like. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Yeah. Right up to those little huts that Luke lived in. Now, historically, and outside of the Star Wars universe, what's... Yes. These were famous for what? Did anything happen here? Monks lived on these islands. That's a monastery, a monastery up there, those cool stone huts.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Oh, there they are, yeah. Yeah, that Luke kept the tombs of the Jedi in. So did the, did all the Irish watch Star Wars and just go, this is just that place? Exactly. Oh, look, they're going to Skelly. Oh, wonderful. Yeah, that's cool.
Starting point is 00:16:33 You don't need the Millennium Falcon. You can just take the hour and a half boat ride from Park McGee. There won't be any off-green milk for you, but I promise you might have to pee, and there's nowhere to do that either. Good luck. That's right. Exactly, yes. Well, what did the monks do when they had to pee?
Starting point is 00:16:51 Right? That's what we're wondering. There's actually people who live, like guides, who live on the island in the summer months. Yeah. And we're thinking, well, they have to have a bathroom. Yeah, they're humans. awfully selfish of them to not share. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:17:06 They're not eating raw crab like Tom Hanks. Right, exactly. Raw. But, yeah, we're going to see, basically we laid out all the stuff we want to do and then said, all right. To Belfast, over here to dairy, from dairy to the school, silgo, or whatever it's called, down to Galway, down to here, over to here, kill Kenny, Killarney, Cork. You'll kill Kenny, then Calarney. Kill Kenny. Kill Kenny and then kill Arnie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Poor Kenny and Arnie. Kenny, we're used to see and die, but... Listen, yeah, Arnie's usually alive at the end of the movie. That's true. Well, this is exciting stuff. I'm glad now. That's it. Sligo. All we have to do is get over your, get over the mandatory quarantine thing.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Right. That's the thing, right? Right now, if I were to go to Ireland, no problem. Get off the plane. I'm good to go, run around. Hey, check everything out. There are some countries on the mandatory 14-day quarantine list that if you come from one of those countries, you need to hold up in a hotel for two weeks before you're able to leave. And did you say the States is in that group or no? United States is not in that group. A lot of a few South American countries, some African countries. I don't know if England is still on that.
Starting point is 00:18:28 They were for a bit because they had that. Canada is, wow, really. Oh, really? Canada, geez. Canada, geez. Well, their rollout has been... It was doing all right with this whole thing. They were in the beginning.
Starting point is 00:18:37 I mean, like, their kind of avoidance record was better, but their vaccination record is terrible. They're, like, having a horrible time getting people vaccinated. We have to send them vaccines because they're, they don't have enough. So that's a thing. But that's okay. We still love them. They're great. We love them anyway.
Starting point is 00:18:53 Yes, exactly. So, so, yeah, plans are being made, and everything that I book and schedule. have to make sure you know no change fees or free to change dates if need be and that's basically like all right this hotel or that hotel well this one offers
Starting point is 00:19:11 no you know no change fees if we need to move it to another date so that's what I've been doing yeah you'll not be able to change your dates if you do it here exactly so hold on do you get what's your flight of your flight your carrier of choice who are you going to fly over there Um, it's looking like, uh, air lingus. Air Lingus.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Go ahead. What? That's a thing? It's a air lingus. What is air lingus? I've never heard of that airline. They're very cunning, uh, uh, airline provider. And, uh, here it's a stimulating ride, though.
Starting point is 00:19:50 That's right. So wait, there, is this an actual thing? Is it like, yeah, yeah, air lingis. It's the official, um, airline of, of, a, of, Byerland, I believe. Oh. Welcome to Air Lingus. Yes.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Guess what their logo is, Scott? You'll never guess. You'll never guess. A vagina. A vagina. It's a shamrock. Oh, okay. A vagina.
Starting point is 00:20:09 I mean a shamrock. Shaped like a vagina. Well, that's awesome. All fingers point north. I'm hoping that when I get on my plane, I'll be able to find my spot. Yeah. Where I'm supposed to sit. There you go.
Starting point is 00:20:22 You never know, because it's an elusive seat there in Air Lingus. Where am I supposed to sit right here in the middle of the canoe? Okay, fine. That works. Oh, my gosh. Yeah, everyone knows where that's headed. All right. Well, well done.
Starting point is 00:20:43 By the way, I just wanted to make a quick comment about a weird thing. And I'm going to talk about it more at length on the boop show this afternoon. I don't like mechanics. Not people who are mechanics. I don't like doing mechanical things with cars. You don't like being a mechanic if you have to. Right. Car stuff, freaking F off. I hate it. I hate doing oil changes myself. I don't like doing any of it.
Starting point is 00:21:08 I don't like tinkering in there, which is ironic because my dad loved it and did it constantly. It was always trying to get me into it. And I just couldn't do it. He could take the worst car ever and make it run by mid-afternoon. You give me the worst car ever and we ain't going anywhere. Like, I just can't deal. I hate it. so it's a little ironic genie right your dad's into it oh genie's in the chat remember when at home listening this is what I'm talking about yeah the tail the shoes now fits me but it but but it's kind of ironic right like he let's see how does it work he it's ironic no it's not ironic you're right he just likes it and I don't it's not ironic okay I guess if there was if there was a guarantee that in that case the apple fell far from far from far from
Starting point is 00:21:55 from the tree. Right. And if if it was true that we were just like our parents all the time, well then we'd have a standard by which we could call it ironic that I don't. But because we don't automatically do what our parents like, like Brian's not a surgeon, doctor, cancer guy. I'm not.
Starting point is 00:22:12 But my dad is. But your dad is. My dad was like super mechanical. I'm not. But when you say, hey Scott, do you want to be a mechanic but for giant space mex? Well then my answer is yes. because I found this little thing.
Starting point is 00:22:27 I'm going to talk about it later, like I said, but I just want to mention it because I got completely obsessed with this damn thing. It's called a mech mechanical simulator. Okay? And it's what it sounds like. You're in this space garage and on some planet. Outside the window, it looks like freaking blade runners happening.
Starting point is 00:22:45 But in your garage space area, you are accepting these giant battle mecks through the top of the, you know, thing opens up and it gets craneed down. and dropped. And then now you've got to diagnose the thing, sometimes wash it. You got to find out what's broken and then you find out, oh, the left arm's got a missing
Starting point is 00:23:05 or a broken widgetty witch thing. Wow. Sounds fun. It is. It's so fun. Oh my gosh. I love doing it. And you take that arm off. You put it in like a little bench area and then you got to go like take it apart slowly and then figure out what, oh, that's this wire. Okay, well, we'll replace that
Starting point is 00:23:21 because I have another one or I can fix it or I can order a new one. Like, literally being a mechanic for giant space mex and then making crap loads of money. The jobs themselves don't take very long. It takes, I don't know, your average mech maybe takes five to ten minutes or something. So time is sort of compressed. It's not like a regular car mechanic even where you've got to wait days or whatever. But there's something about it.
Starting point is 00:23:43 It's just got me by the lip, man. It's so fun. And I just want to do one more mech, one more mech, one more mech. That's funny. Yeah. So check it out. It's on early access on Steam. It's called a mech mechanic simulator.
Starting point is 00:23:58 And I'm stupid hooked on it right now. That's cool. Let's move on to the news of the day. This here news is brought to you by. Video games are cool and we all know it. But what's cooler is spending some time with Scott Johnson and Brian Dunaway on the Boop show. Where new video games are talked about every week, join us live or grab the podcast. Details at frogpents.com slash boop.
Starting point is 00:24:29 Yeah, go watch it today. It's going to be good. Donnoy's doing something with chickens. I forgot what it is. Oh, chicken police or chicken security or chicken... Chicken cops, chicken detectives. Something like that. Yeah. Something like that. Chicken security. Don't know what to think of it. I'll bet you're right with chicken cops, right? Chicken cops? Chicken cops, chicken police? Yeah, I can remember. Game. Chicken. Chicken police.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Chicken police. That's it. It is chicken police. Okay, I was right the first time. All right. Here's your first news story. It's actually not much of a news story, but kind of a hilarious visual. So chat room, this one's for you today.
Starting point is 00:25:07 A young female Japanese biker turned out to be a 50-year-old man with luscious hair, and he's using that face app. So guys got like, like, he's become notorious on social media for being this very beautiful Japanese young lady. who writes motorcycles all the time. Turns out he's been using that face app the whole time and it's not him. That's him over there on the right. So look at that guy. He's nothing like this girl. His hair still looks
Starting point is 00:25:34 great though. Yeah. Yeah. I mean look at that guy. Look. Look at her down there. Scroll down and you can see it like she is working on her on her bike speaking of mechanics. Oh man. No kidding. And you probably see that although her arm's pretty suspect right there if you look at her where she's doing the peace sign. Seriously this is really real. This is a real thing.
Starting point is 00:25:51 This is the face app. He's using that face app which can make anybody look like anything. and he used it to basically create... I thought they used up, like, just smooth things over. Oh, no, no. Wow. You should see this stuff, this thing. My kids got obsessed with it.
Starting point is 00:26:05 That's, that's... And there's still a lot of rumors that, like... It's scary is what that is. Well, some... There's still people who believe, and whatever, everyone believes everything they want, but they are people that believe that this is being used by that company in China to gather face data. So they can use it for no, you know, whatever nefarious means you want. But whatever, we always say this stuff about stuff in China.
Starting point is 00:26:30 So I'm not one for that. But here, for example, Brian, I'm going to put it in your chat. This is my two children. Carter's setting on the left is to make her look like what she would look like if she was a boy with a beard. And then Taylor was supposed to say, well, what do I look like super young? And so now this is the result. That's face app doing that. That is crazy.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Yeah. So it does this kind of stuff. like crazy you could do a shot of me like you would say those are two very different people like two completely different but real people yeah it's like that website this person does not exist yeah and uh exactly and sometimes that stuff happens if you look at taylor's eye one of them is really screwed up like bigger than the other one uh let's see your left eye i guess yeah it's all bulge it out uh the one nick did let's see do i still have that incredible and and disturbing and
Starting point is 00:27:26 and make it stop. Yeah, make it end. Can we please have this stop? How could I want, believing what I see was like the last thing I had to cling to, Scott? That's right. Here I am ruining it for you. Here's a fun one.
Starting point is 00:27:42 I'll put this up for the chat as well. This is, Van, Van is an old person. So there he is normal chat. And then here he is with the face. Oh, why isn't it working? Hold on.
Starting point is 00:27:54 God, that is That's annoying JPG That is wacky Oh my God Isn't that weird That is weird So there he is like a crazy old
Starting point is 00:28:06 Karen who's mad That are The manager won't talk to her That's just ridiculous Right exactly Yeah I ordered the Rudy Tootty fresh and fruity
Starting point is 00:28:16 So anyway Yeah this guy You brought me moons over my hammy guys busted though you can't uh you know be pretending there's some right exactly young cutie girl when you're not so he's busted wow whatever is nothing illegal about what he did just you know it's like you can't trust anything on the internet is the point just don't trust anything you see yeah internet's full crap which is fine yeah it's fine yeah it's fine we're better off not trusting anything on me too easy trust is too easy to create stuff
Starting point is 00:28:52 Exactly. Don't believe all those things written about me in Wikipedia. It's not true. Yeah. Brian's Wikipedia page is just a big fat lie, all of it. Grape nuts in the news. Grape nuts. Uh-huh. Nature's cereal, you know? Yeah. It's the worst. It's nature's aquarium gravel. It's so bad. I hate it, too. I do, too. It's the worst.
Starting point is 00:29:14 Apparently, there's been a shortage. And, boy. Impossible. That's what I would think. I would think there would be nothing but overages. of all grape nuts. Right, exactly, yes. But apparently no, the grape nut shortage is over. Now the brand is offering to pay back its most fervent fans. So apparently this was an actual thing.
Starting point is 00:29:32 Finally, after a nationwide shortage forced fans to begrudgingly slurped bowls of lesser brand cereals, Grapenuts has reclaimed its rightful place on grocery store shelves. The fibrous cereal is once again fully stocked nationwide, signaling the official end of the pandemic grape nuts shortage. They've just said the same paragraph twice in the letter. Yeah, exactly. They're like, these are the, this is the word equivalent of like, I don't know, Taco Bell ingredients. That's right.
Starting point is 00:30:02 That top one is the Chalupa. The second one is the Brita Supreme, same ingredients, just different order. It says here on, this is Post who makes that cereal, post-consumer brands announced on Wednesday, they're repaying grape nuts fanatics for their brand loyalty by reimbursing them up to 150 bucks if they overpaid to get their cereal fixer. the shortage so if they paid i don't know double like bought ebay grape nuts or something like what uh but what are they reimbursing for where were you get where are you going to buy a hundred fifteen dollar box of grape nuts you've got to imagine that grape nuts is the most durable ass freaking
Starting point is 00:30:41 ebay week long cereal ever right oh yeah right i mean uh grape nuts from uh 1986 guess what still taste like a box from 2021. Yeah, you eat the cereal still. You just get it for the box. How possible is it that Kellogg's or whoever makes grape nuts? Post. Post. Said, let's just pretend there was a shortage, kind of like the spicy chicken sandwich at Popeyes and see what happens.
Starting point is 00:31:12 Yeah, yeah, why not? A big cereal, once again, Yankee chained and turning us against each other. You're right, man. It's totally what's going on. Uh, it says here the, uh, great stuff on the internet says the, the cereal made from, uh, made of nether, neither grapes nor nuts. I almost said nether grapes. Neither grapes nor nuts discuss. Uh, men have nether grapes. Uh, it says, uh, let's see, uh, but wheat and barley were nearly impossible to find in early 2021. Disappointed consumers had the pandemic to thank supply chain restraints and, uh, higher than usual demand for cereal, halted production. and halted it. I think it just stretched it thin is what happened. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:31:55 that's it. Too many people want our cereal. That's it. We're halting it. We're stopping. Stop it. That's the wrong word. They're using there. In January, post-assured grape nuts fans, or grape nuts nuts, they say in this chat room that the brand would return to shells in early spring as production returned.
Starting point is 00:32:13 But the weight was too long for some of these fervent fans, some of whom turned to secondary serial markets to get their grape nuts fix paying up to 110 bucks a box, according to the post. Well, then they're weird. That's weird. Yeah, exactly. It shouldn't be on you to reimburse them for that kind of lunacy. Yeah, I don't get it. By the way, they've changed, they finally changed their logo, specifically the fun. They kept the, you know, one word over the other word, red and purple motif.
Starting point is 00:32:43 But they've changed their font from, oh, my God, what is that font that everybody used for, t-shirts in the 70s. They used it for Vote for Pedro T-shirts, whatever that font is. I'm usually good with font names. That is... I think I have it.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Yeah. Well, I found a cheap... I found a rip-off version called Grap Nuts on fonts.com. That's just somebody copying it. Great Nuts, fonts. Let's see, graffiti fonts. I can't find it either.
Starting point is 00:33:15 The new one is a graffiti one. The old one is Cooper Black. Thank you, Luke Sidewalker. Cooper Black. Yeah. That's right. For the longest time, it was like, you know, Cooper Black. We started this in the 60s. We're staying with it. Yeah. Oh, my gosh, Cooper Black. Who uses Cooper Black for anything anymore? Does someone use it unless they're being retro? Unless you're being retro, exactly. Yeah. I can't imagine it. There it is right there, chat. Quick Brown Dog Fox.
Starting point is 00:33:44 If you're making a very, if you want to make a very retro-looking T-shirt, just do it in Cooper black and uh yeah if you want to make like a cool bar that's got like i don't know cover bands that play 70s rock or whatever right there you go or even you're a 70s cover band yeah it's a great a great font to use for your cover band oranges and browns uh just kind of your you know your cover band named fred zeppelin should be done in cooper black red is that a band is that real no it should be it should be fred zeppelin how is that not a band why wouldn't someone do that. That seems such a great idea. I'm checking, just to make sure somebody hasn't already gotten it.
Starting point is 00:34:24 If I could do cover songs of Led Zeppelin, I would be Fred Zeppelin. Yeah, be a great band, right? Oh, my God, there is a Fred Zeppelin tribute band. Shut up, really? Yes. Oh, yeah, this is Fred-Zech Zeppelin.com. Sweet. Yeah, they're, uh, they seem like they're doing all right.
Starting point is 00:34:43 They got a little lights. Actually, they seem to be, yeah. Songs remain the same. Tribute to the Mighty Led Zeppelin by Fred. Zeppelin. Wow. And they got a bunch of dates coming up. Friday, 21st of May at Licefield Social Club.
Starting point is 00:34:56 A bunch of social clubs down in Austin on stuff. Just goes to prove that you can't think of anything that somebody hasn't already thought of and put on the internet. Yep. Rule 34. No, that's if everyone makes sexy things out of your stuff. Right. Yeah. And that's pretty true, too.
Starting point is 00:35:14 Right? Because if you put, here, let me test this. If I type lead Led Zeppelin porn Well I'm going to say Lead Zeppelin I'll just say porn Let's see what we get
Starting point is 00:35:25 That's great Oh geez Okay well I don't know how any of that has to do with Led Zeppelin that I just saw And all of a sudden Scott's dazed and confused I've been in the mood for that movie lately I'm not gonna lie Yeah I like that movie
Starting point is 00:35:40 I like to see it once in a while It's one of my favorite favorites All right Moving on grape nuts, good job, well done. Oh, they're going to pay up to $110 to people. Earlier, they said $1.15, but now it says $1.10.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Yeah, that's weird. Post me, up here in the second paragraph, they may reimburse them $115. Down here it says. Right, 110. $110. Yeah. So all of a sudden, it's like,
Starting point is 00:36:04 it just took them a long time to write this article and between right in paragraph 2 and paragraph 6. Yeah. The editor never went back to make sure we had some continuity. but if you paid more than $10 for a box of grape nuts, Brian,
Starting point is 00:36:19 between November and March, you're eligible for up to $115 bucks here. So, well, get on it because I know you've got grape nuts all over the house. So really, it's if you, maybe you bought multiple boxes or something like that, at a legitimate grocery store, if you bought 10 boxes, then you'll get reimbursed $100 or something. Well, they're just saying if you, if you, it says 110 per box. Yeah, they're saying if you spent.
Starting point is 00:36:44 10 bucks or more on a single box. Yeah. Or multiple boxes. They'll pay you 110 bucks per box to show that they love your loyalty and they'm sad that they couldn't get you your cereal when you wanted it. Okay. So after the show, you and I will draft up fake eBay receipts for $115.15 grape nuts auctions and we'll both submit those. Yeah, perfect. Sign me up. I was born ready. All right. this truck you know this evergreen container ship thing that got stuck in the Suez Canal
Starting point is 00:37:17 what was the ship though the ship isn't evergreen no it's ever shit ever green not ever green something with a G ever greener green ever given ever given ever given ever given ever given yeah so they finally got it moving and six days later it's going so that story's kind of over but there's this truck in China that caused a traffic jam called the Evergreen Well, it was an evergreen tray One of the containers you'd see on that ship
Starting point is 00:37:48 And set it on the side And this thing's blocking traffic in the same exact way That the ship is blocking whatever It's hilarious because it's still It is like a jackknife truck That is blocking traffic And isn't that great That's great
Starting point is 00:38:05 That is hilarious That's freaking great Life imitates life Let's see, sitting in Egypt this morning, says Benjin. Cool. That's where it's at. Well, good for them. The poor crews on those things.
Starting point is 00:38:18 They just had to sit out there and hope they didn't run out of food. And all the boats stacked up five wide behind them, waiting for them to get through the canal, like holding up all of this, all of this boat traffic, container shipment traffic. Yeah. Which was, and then they had that tiny little claw machine trying to get it out, which to me, my favorite tweet was. Somebody said, this picture is the equivalent of me spell checking my to-do list, meaning you're not actually going to get anything done. You're just going to spell check your two lists. Oh, we gotcha.
Starting point is 00:38:51 Okay, that's funny. Because it's just out there poking at it doing shit. Although, I mean, did it work? I don't know if that's what worked. I didn't catch the end of that story to see how they finally dislodged the damn thing. I thought it was just them finally digging it all out. And, uh, I don't know. Wow.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Maybe it was those little, those little things came through. with a little... Yeah, so if you're waiting for something from a Kickstarter, chances are if they're not using... If it is not an excuse of theirs that your thing is on that shipping
Starting point is 00:39:21 container, you know, backed up behind the ever given, then they'll be using that as their excuse. That's right. Dead Pollers in the chat says it was a dredger. The dredger. The dredger. Bring in the dredger. We've run out of options. Now, let me ask you this. When the oil spill
Starting point is 00:39:38 happened. Everybody went, oh, this will be a movie one day, and it was. When the Boston Marathon bomb happened, everyone said, oh, this will be a movie one day, and it was. Elian Gonzalez, yeah. Right. Does this constitute a movie, or is this too stupid? It's more on the level of Bodie McBoatface. Like, I don't think we're ever going to get a Bodie McBoatface movie, and I don't think we're going to get an ever-given movie. Yeah, probably not. Unless there if we do, I want Benedict Cumberbatch to play Bodie McBoatface. I like it. But unless somebody's on there saying, I'm the captain now, then this is not a, there's no story here. Starring the Rock, heck yeah, dude, that'd be great.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Oh, Tiger King will be a movie first. I mean, that's already in the pipeline. Isn't Nick Cage attached to that thing? Right. Nick Cage or somebody was. I think we all wanted David Spade or Rob Schneider or something, but we're getting Nick Cage, yeah. I don't, if I'm going to, I'm going to make a guess here. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:40:40 I don't think that thing gets made. And the reason I don't think it gets made isn't because it's not worthy of making or there isn't a story there. I just think we are so fatigued on that. Yeah, I think so. Like, we're almost, uh, you know what I mean? We're almost done. Yeah. Screen Rant says they've got, uh, here's the cast so far.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Uh, Edward Norton. Really? Just true. Hold on. Is that true? Are they making that up? Yeah. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:41:13 I guess this is just what they want. Yeah. No, if you go to Variety, this is a scripted series from American Vandal showrunner. So isn't American Vandal? Is that the one that had the... Oh, J. Simpson, the Versace one.
Starting point is 00:41:28 Yeah, yeah. The same people, I think. The O.J. Simpson one was really good. Oh, it was great. It's really well done. I love that. Amazing casting. I never saw the Versace one, but it won a lot of rewards.
Starting point is 00:41:40 Here's who they say it should be in it. Okay, I kind of agree with some of this. So Edward Norman, he'd be a pretty good, Joe, exotic. Lisa Kudrow is Carol Baskin. I love that. Oh, my God, that's great casting. It's pretty good. Stephen Merchant is Howard Baskin.
Starting point is 00:41:57 That's pretty good. Okay. Michelle Rodriguez as Kelsey Saff, Safry, which is the girl that got her arm cut off. Oh, okay. All right. Sheila Boof as John Finlay, the guy with the teeth and the no shirt. That would work. Pen Bagley.
Starting point is 00:42:12 There's no teeth and no shirt. Who's Penn Bagley? Is Travis Malinato? I don't know who Penn Bagley is. Oh, Penn Bagley or Badge? Badgley? Maybe it's Badgley. Oh, it is Badgeley.
Starting point is 00:42:24 He's the guy who played the main character on You. He was also on one of those like gossip girls or or gossip girl or something like that. But he was in that Netflix series called You or a guy stocks. Oh, right. Yeah, it was a recommendal of buying. Okay, he's got a good face for it. I'm looking at him here. He'd be fine.
Starting point is 00:42:47 They want John Hamm as Doc Antle, that weirdo. Oh, with the white ponytail? Yeah, and his little patch hair. Yes, oh, God. John Hamm would see, so this is the, this is the Tiger King movie we want. Oh, I want. This is what I want. It's not going to happen, but this is what I want.
Starting point is 00:43:06 Lauren Lapkis says Barbara Bala Fisher, dude, that Lauren Lapkis says funny as hell. She makes me laugh all the time. When I couldn't sleep one night, I actually watched the David Spade, Lauren Lapkis movie, The Wrong Missing. Yeah, what did you think of it? We liked it. It was actually really funny. Yeah. She makes it, though, right?
Starting point is 00:43:26 And it's nobody else. She makes it. She is a brilliant. She's so good. She's like brilliant timing, although the scene where the, uh, I know the scene that you probably love the most was when they were doing the shadow puppetry or shadow dancing.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Yeah. And the lemon pops out of the guy's butt and all of a sudden there's like a splash all over the screen that they're all posing behind. Yeah, that part was gnarly. Not my favorite part if I had to pick a part. Oh, really? Okay, I would have put money on this. I mean, from what gross got out the most moment, maybe.
Starting point is 00:44:03 Yes. she's just hilarious and she is never got to really show that side of herself on orange as the new black or no you know where else she's good is a Jurassic world was she in one of those yeah she was the nerd computer expert
Starting point is 00:44:17 person they didn't use her very well in that either but she was great in the first episode with a dude from community I can't think he was name all of a sudden Indian guy yeah Danny Puddy Abed yes her and him
Starting point is 00:44:33 are in this first episode of this weird thing. The people that made, My name is Earl and Raising Hope, have a show called The Guest Book. Have you seen this? Okay. No. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:45 It was almost a recommendal, but I ended up only really liking the first episode. The rest of them were okay. But it's about this town and this vacation spot. And this, basically it's a, um, uh, what do you call it? Like a, like a summer ranch home, uh, cabin.
Starting point is 00:45:00 And people come to it to get away. And they tell the story of the people coming there. and it's always big guest stars in that role that week. But there's also a bunch of extra characters in the town that are there all the time. And it's almost like, it's like rated R. Earl or Raising Hope. And it's even got our guy from Raising Hope. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We love him.
Starting point is 00:45:23 Dillahunt. He's in there and has a place next door. So he's in there a bunch. And a bunch of people you've seen in like previous efforts by this producer. Anyway, that first episode with him and this Laura Lapkis chick, one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It was hilarious. And the rest of the series just didn't live up to how good that first episode was.
Starting point is 00:45:45 So start on TBS. Where is it, do you know, where it is now? Hulu, I believe, is where we saw it's Hulu. Okay. All right. Yeah, I would recommend at least that first episode and then see how you feel after that. Do you know her full name, by the way, is Dorothea Lauren Allegra. Or like her full name is Dorothea Lauren Allegra Laptis.
Starting point is 00:46:03 Oh, my gosh. She's tall as she looks. Do you have a height there? She's got to be, yeah, I'm sure she's like, six foot five or something. Yeah, very tall lady. Does not say, it doesn't say her height. It's kind of funny. I mean, I'm sure somewhere online I can find it, but I'm sure somewhere online I can find pictures of her feet.
Starting point is 00:46:28 Woody Harrelson is Eric Cowie. Oh my gosh, this is a great casting idea. All right. That's a, I don't know how we got there. She needs to be a Cernet Live host, by the way. Oh, no, she'd be great, right? Has she not? She probably hasn't been.
Starting point is 00:46:40 She hasn't, no. I mean, or a regular on SNL. Five-10 is what Dan Wally said. What? Yeah. She looks so tall. She looks so much taller. I guess it's just how lanky she is.
Starting point is 00:46:54 You know, she's... Yeah. It makes her look taller. But gosh, dang it, she's funny. She is hilarious. Yeah. And so, like, she can do... awkward and uncomfortable in a way
Starting point is 00:47:05 that is off-putting and endearing at the same time. Like, hard to explain. Yeah, and David. David Spade is super short, so that probably also... Oh, yeah, that probably did it. Yeah. Having, what's his name in there?
Starting point is 00:47:19 Annoyed Me, the copy. Making copies. What's his name? Oh, Rob Schneider. Yeah, it's like, come on. Yeah, he doesn't know how to be a secondary character without, you know, making sure that he's the center of everything whenever he's on screen.
Starting point is 00:47:33 He may as well be just saying you can do it or whatever. It's like. May as well, yes. Exactly. You're just that guy. All right. That's it for today's news. We're going to take a break.
Starting point is 00:47:42 When we come back, we'll spend a little time with not. Oh, Justin's not here. What am I thinking? We're going to spend time with you. We'll spend time with you people. That's right. So here's what I want you to do. Get this number ready.
Starting point is 00:47:53 801-47-1-462. It's our regular call in line. We're going to take calls from listeners. That's right. You have the length of this song to figure out your question. for call now. Yep, that's right. Call now.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Not now, but in a second. Okay, so when you call, we'll answer your questions. And it doesn't have to be a question. It can be a comment or a thought or, you know, you saw the Snyder cut and grew a third nipple as a result and wanted to tell us about it. Whatever, we're here for you. Okay, that's what we're saying. Before that, though, Brian has to introduce said song and then play it.
Starting point is 00:48:23 I do. This is great. So there was a musician, passed away a guy by the name of Emmett Rhodes. And Emmett is a, you know, pop musician who had this style that was very much like the Beatles. He was a one-man kind of Beatles pop creator. He could create songs that sounded like the Beatles. Recorded, played all the instruments himself, et cetera. Last year, Andrew Gabbard decided he was going to try and do the same thing and kind of do a tribute to Emmett Rhodes doing a tribute to the Beatles.
Starting point is 00:48:59 So a little bit of inception going on here. It's out. It finally is out. And it's in advance of a brand new EP called Homemade Album, which is great. The song, the single is called Promises I've Made, enjoy this very beetle-esque Andrew Gabbard song. so bright and I wish I could forget you but I can

Starting point is 00:50:22 But I find that just is hard You know it's true So I don't know my soul thinking. I can't feel myself broken. All my ears I play to myself in my skin. I've got to know, I promised myself I wouldn't think of you, but I find that awful hard sometimes to do. I promised myself I wouldn't dream of you, but I find that just as hard. you know it's true
Starting point is 00:51:31 Because when I'm I can't solve myself thinking I can't stop myself working All the sense I pay you to myself It must be You know, and I'm going to be.

Brian, you think of one. Well, I know, I know that this came up a part of a newsletter I read the other day.
Starting point is 00:56:23 But lo and behold, or when you say, lo, these many years ago, it doesn't have a W. It's like, L.O. and behold. Oh, is that true? That's true. Okay. Oh, was that your email or your newsletter? I can't remember. It wasn't on mine.
Starting point is 00:56:40 Maybe it was. Maybe it was. I don't know. Yeah, it was totally in years. Okay, so was it really? Did I really do that? I put low like L-O-W. L-O-W. Low these many years ago. Okay. Let's throw it to tell you. Where have we screwed up? Where have we gone wrong? Ryan's right. All right. Well, this is a simple game. Let's try.

I think maybe I was talking, well, it was the rice bowls, right? So I probably said, no no no I mean when you were yesterday when yesterday when you were um no it was good though was like dad you say this feels like it would be a perfect question for this yeah and I said I don't think I say it wrong and they said no you definitely do say it wrong but I can't remember what it was and now I'm going to be annoyed all day and then Carter will tell me I'll be a piss that I couldn't remember it was something dumb something dumb and small like uh not like waint or both or any of those things
Starting point is 00:57:40 it was something right right we all we know you know we know how that goes yeah i don't know what do okay i got one for you um this is separate they're different but the other day my daughter was saying what do what is it called when people put us and ums in between things you probably know that talia so what does it mean go ahead they're just pause words and has heard something it's uh actually that's one of the interesting thing is like uh that's one of the most universal uh quote unquote words is hmm but it's like very persistent in I think most or all languages or something that's very
Starting point is 00:58:18 universal it's because we all have this need to like cause we all have to cause a pause while we think of stuff right isn't that the whole idea probably yeah and it changes that actually changes between languages um so we have um and like and all of those but then if you're in um you know say France you know I've I know they have kind of a nonsense word but it's not an exactly nonsense word.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Interesting. A guy I want to say, cool, the Chinese have one, which I will not repeat because it sounds very close to a racial word. Yeah, it sounds like you're saying
Starting point is 00:58:52 the N-word. I know that one. Yeah, I'm not saying that one. Yeah, it's, I've done it before, I've done it on the air before, but I won't even now because I just,
Starting point is 00:59:00 it's too close to the N-word, but basically it sounds like you're saying the N-word twice. Wow. Yeah. And when I was in China, it was all over the place. The French filler word is,
Starting point is 00:59:08 really. Really, really. Really? Really. Well, it's interesting you say that because it is common in French to say, like, their equivalent is tré. And so it is very common for them to just say that a lot to emphasize a little. So, oh, say, tre, tre, tre, trite, tron. Really?
Starting point is 00:59:25 Really? Oh, that's interesting. He's actually kind of directly translating from the way he speaks in French. So it's really, really, really, but it doesn't quite, it's, yeah. Yeah, I've heard him do that before Patrick when he's talking in French. And I always wonder what the crap he was saying, because I don't know French, but. So a while back, actually, earlier this month. month. Oscar from
Starting point is 00:59:43 Iceland wrote in and said, here are a few words that Scott pronounces differently. Oh, yeah. All right. So what do you call the red condiment that you put on hamburgers? ketchup. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:00 ketchup. Is that wrong? I know. He claims that you pronounce it ketchup. Catch up. C.A. like ketchup. Yeah. I'd say ketchup, ketchup, ketchup. You say ketchup. Do we have any ketchup? I say ketchup. Yeah. He's What do you take with your camera phone with your camera? Photos.
Starting point is 01:00:17 Oh, what's another word for photos? Photograph. Uh, good. Picks. Pictures. There we go. Yeah, you say picture. Picture.
Starting point is 01:00:24 Picture. Pictures. You take any pictures? I do say that. You do say pictures. Yeah, you do. Oh, man. Okay, well, I'm going to stop doing that because that's what do you look in to see
Starting point is 01:00:36 a reflection? A mirror. Yeah, he says, uh, he says you say, mirror without saying without making it two syllables let me think if I do it in a natural conversation I need somebody got a mirror yeah I do I do yeah mirror
Starting point is 01:00:52 I don't know what I've ever asked if someone had a mirror but that sounded right you have a mirror yeah mirror mirror mirror I kind of put an ear on the end but it's he's right I kind of do that one wrong what else is that is that all he had I think that's it you want me to to try and get you to sing
Starting point is 01:01:09 a same like TMS bingo Oh, he was going to, back in the day, Brian used to try to make me do that all the time. Those were dark days, dark times. Those were dark days. All right. I got one more question for you here. Okay, why does every other social media post, YouTube video, TikTok video, this sort of stuff, when it's somebody on video, why do they start their sentence with the word so? And that's a problem as far as I'm concerned, because it annoys the crap out of me.
Starting point is 01:01:41 People do this, they'll go. Because people don't know how to begin a conversation without going. So the other day, I was in blah, blah, blah. Yeah, I hate that. Why, can we not do that? Let's not do that, Talley. Way in on that one. Okay, boomer.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Oh, the other day. So yesterday, I was on Highway 93 coming home. And somebody was driving really aggressive behind me, right? They're like on my butt and finally I get to a place where there's a second lane. And I'm going a little bit over the speed limit. They're wanting to go a lot faster than me. And I pulled into the second lane, the side lane, and they zip by and I see that they're driving a BMW. And without thinking, I go, okay, Beamer.
Starting point is 01:02:28 Didn't even think about it in that context meaning, okay, Beamer. That's pretty good. That's pretty good. Well, all right. I feel like we've learned something today. Anything else to add there? Well, I mean, if you want a real answer, Um, I don't really know, but I would guess that it's more conversational. And TikTok wants people to be, you know, feel like pals or something. So it's kind of an effect of, uh, more familiar. familiarity. Yeah. But, um, yeah, you're just, you're just, you're just an old man complaining about. Yeah, I do that. That's what I do. Uh, here's the thing, though. Like, um, there's, uh, how do I explain this? Like, there's, it is a different, like a different way of speaking.
Starting point is 01:03:11 in modern, I don't know, in modern social media, let's say. Isn't that just what we always, like, we always, the language will evolve to just adhere to just adhere to cultural changes, right? Like, if it was the 70s, us saying groovy man wouldn't have been that weird, but now it sounds weird or ironic or we're just being goofballs, but back then they were being serious. It's like, oh, that's, hey, that's pretty groovy. You play a guitar all the time?
Starting point is 01:03:38 Far out. Like, that stuff sounds dumb now. but for a while there we were super into it and maybe at one point we'll look back and go I can't believe we started so many videos with the word and it'll be a fun thing to look back on but that's all we're doing weird hearing we're taking in this case English
Starting point is 01:03:53 and just saying well let's apply it to today's weird thing we're doing stick it on like a big sticker right on top see how it works I know how language works I'm a genius where's the fart noises exactly that's how people should begin their YouTube videos that's right all right so I was going to tell you
Starting point is 01:04:09 about uh some of them might actually i don't know tally it's always nice to talk to you by now all right that number's 801 471 0462 you could be the next person to call now and you could get an answer from us about things uh you know you got something burning just get it in here a burning question about uh oh the cat's gone i was you'll say about me or scott or the cat oh where's no cat empty empty bed empty bed oh man well it's better it looks like a uh what are those brand squares those brand uh that cereal that looks like um grape nut squares yeah not grape nut squares hold on i know what you mean hold they are yeah they're like brand their rings yeah made of bran yep cracklin oat bran cracklin oat brand yeah
Starting point is 01:05:01 that'll put your colon through the works you're being aware and no shortage of cracklin oat brand no you could get that all through that time uh hi you're on the the air. Who's this? Hi, Wolfram 99. How are you guys doing? Good. How are you? Good. How are you doing? I'm doing good. I'm one of the people who's Justin's bane of existence. Oh, really? I'm really bummed that he's not here. Yeah, no kidding. No, no, no, I'm the guy who's a biologist and I'm the, I'm the, I'm the guy who basically was, you know, saying, you know, plague ending never, so type of thing. Oh, gotcha. He just loved, He just loved me. It's happy, happy, joy, joy.
Starting point is 01:05:39 I just wanted a call and thank you guys. I remember listening to Extra Life Radio, and you made Wow, because I started in February instead of November, because I wanted to let the system actually be able to be playable. And I love the way you guys talked about Wow, because you were so wrong. Not happy just being the bane of Jerry's existence,
Starting point is 01:06:06 I see. Right, right. What was it that was wrong in your mind? No, you guys were basically, it was early on. It was, it was hilarious. You were talking about mechanics, and it was mechanics you hadn't played, or it was the best comedy act I'd ever seen. It couldn't tell half the time. And it was just hilarious. It was little, you know how us nerds get sometimes where it's like, my God, you put a period where it should have been a comma. Oh, yeah. That type of stuff. Yeah, yeah, I get that way all the time, especially if it's like, you know, I don't know, I'm trying to think a good example lately.
Starting point is 01:06:41 But if somebody, you know, in my Twitter timeline will say, I don't know what it. What's, how comes, oh, I know what it was. The other day someone says, Zach Snyder already made this movie. Why is he doing it again? And he's missing all the nuanced conversation about Joss Whedon stepping in and why he had to step in. And the death of his, was it his daughter or some? But anyway, Zach Snyder's death in the family that pulled him away from the production. and like all of these things sort of contributing to ultimately him saying,
Starting point is 01:07:09 well, let me just take this back and do the thing I wanted to do. And like it or hate it, like, there's just a story there, right? And I hate it when people have all this simplified version of it. Like, well, they already put it out. What do you didn't like it then? Why do you get to do-overs? No, it's not quite the same as just getting to do a do-over or whatever. This isn't a director's comment or a director's cut in the traditional like Ridley Scott,
Starting point is 01:07:34 aliens or Blade Runner. This is like halfway between that and the the hateful eight thing that Tarantino. Yes. Oh, that's so good as an example. Although I think that they may have done a little better with that because they went ahead and chunked it into four pieces instead of leaving it all. I mean, you can watch it, but you know,
Starting point is 01:07:54 all in one go if you want to. But I like that on Netflix, that thing's separated for some reason it makes me feel like. I tell you, that's, I totally watched Justice League Snyder Cut as different episodes, and I just watched until I got to another chapter marker and then came back and watched another one. That's what I got to do. That's the only way I'm going to be able to handle that thing, I think, if I finally wanted to. Can you eat an elephant in one bite?
Starting point is 01:08:18 You've got to slice it into chunks. Yeah, unless you're a giant alien technical creature who can fit an entire elephant in its mouth. Yeah. There's always a different. There's always a way, Brian. But if there's a will, there's a way. Anyway, so, yeah. So, yeah, those were old days, man.
Starting point is 01:08:34 I look back. I tried to listen to some old Extra Life radio episodes recently, and, oh, I can't do it. It was a long time ago. I didn't know nothing about nothing. And I did a lot of, you know, I did, guys remember when I used to do ding pong? Do you remember that? God, yeah, I can't do that now. I do that now.
Starting point is 01:08:53 I'm in huge trouble. Even though it was just like an impression of my brother, basically. But you always used to do it with, it's okay. My brother's Korean. Yeah. I justified it because my brother was Korean. what a stupid thing to do well yeah yeah one other thing i want to thank him because without kim in your life yeah you wouldn't be here right now you wouldn't be guaranteed you wouldn't be
Starting point is 01:09:14 you wouldn't be any i mean no offense intended i've been married 30 30 some years so i'm an old guy and i understand the situation but yeah kin is your is it's the old completion thing no you're not wrong like she would she would agree with you and i agree with you um i don't know that i be dead or in a gutter somewhere, but, you know, I don't think I would, uh, she, she, she grounds me in a way that, uh, was desperately needed in my life. So, uh, fair point. Uh, nice to talk to you. Always good to see you. Thanks for calling in. All right, Brian. We got time for one more. One more of these. And the number is 801-14710462. If you haven't written it down yet, oh, we already got one coming in. This is to answer. Hello, thanks for calling in. Who's this?
Starting point is 01:10:03 Hello, this is Shane Maddox. Hello, Shane. Hey, shaved Maddox. He's often shaved, but never not chained. Anyway, it's good to have you on. How are you? I'm doing okay. Oh, that doesn't sound like you're doing great.
Starting point is 01:10:18 What can we do to help? I don't believe it. I don't believe it one bit. Is there anything we can do here to help you with your weird day you're having? Well, actually, so you're using the Stream Labs, LBS. At the moment, no, I'm using, for show production, I'm still using good old fashion OBS and there's a, there's a kind of a weird, fiddly reason why? Well, I'll just tell you. So doing screen switching between Brian and I, like I'll do it right now for the chat. So there's me and there's Brian.
Starting point is 01:10:53 And I can go back and forth at will and go back to our dual screen and do this very easily without even thinking about it or focusing on it because in regular OBS for, for the Mac, or PC for that matter, the scenes pane where you have your different scenes you can choose, those are also key selectable alphabetically. What I mean by that is I can label them, for example, and I have here, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and then a dash and then whatever the screen is. So number three is three dash, Scott, which is my cam. Brian is four dash Brian, when I'm looking at like a web page or something, I'm showing the chat room of video, 5 dash screen, and so on. And what I can do is I literally just rest my hand up on the number keys.
Starting point is 01:11:42 And I know that Brian's on four. I'm on three and I can switch without even thinking about it or doing anything. And at home, everyone's like, oh, he's got a fancy camera switching. Not really. I'm just hitting keys. Now, for whatever reason, Stream Labs doesn't support this very basic sort of non-feature. because I have to admit, I made it a feature. It's not like a thing they advertise.
Starting point is 01:12:04 But because they don't let me do this, it really throws me. And I have to use a mouse to do that navigation. And that is a pain. So you don't have one of those stream deck things with the little buttons. I have one. I use it on my PC, though, and don't use it as much as I thought I would because of this. If I didn't have this option, then that is what I'd be using for sure. Sure. Makes sense.
Starting point is 01:12:26 Yeah. But the other nice thing is now all my shows. kind of have this same template. I sort of do it for everything now. It's just different people, different scenes or whatever. And I'm so used to it. I'm not sure I could go back very easily. So I don't know if that answers your question,
Starting point is 01:12:42 but that is why I use that. I'm using stream labs if you have a stream labs OBS, if you have a specific question about that. I'm actually on, I am actually on traditional OBS, and you did actually answer my question, incidentally, because I was wondering specifically, If you do manually go from camera to camera like that, or if there was something automated.
Starting point is 01:13:04 I get that question a lot. So I'm glad that's what you were seeking. It's just, it's a thing that I just kind of figured out over time messing with things and went, oh, this lets me hotkey. And it works with letters too, I should say. So, you know, if you wanted to do it like B was Brian and S was Scott, that's great.
Starting point is 01:13:20 But see, the problem I ran into there was Scott and Screen, both start with an S. So I'd have to change screen to something else. or if there are two brines on the show, like Dunaway and Ibit or whatever, and we were doing video, then I'd have to come up with something better. So the numbers thing worked.
Starting point is 01:13:36 And it's just a simple, weird kind of life hack that worked. So I highly recommend it. I wish Screen Labs did because I like StreamLabs a lot for other reasons. There's a lot of really cool functions and features in that thing. I think it's better at like determining best output settings when you go live and some other stuff like that. um an integration with their their alert system and all that stuff's cool but it just doesn't have this one basic thing and they did I should say this stream labs did
Starting point is 01:14:04 introduce um I think Brian's using it for his cat they introduced the virtual camera thing on stream labs oh yeah oh did they really I've been using I just reuse regular OBS for the well regular OBS you know how it's got the button right up front yeah so it's super easy to get to stream labs has it but it's a little more buried yeah just like a linker two or a click or two below a menu somewhere, but it does support it now. So, I mean, if you look at it, streamlizer is really just a fork
Starting point is 01:14:33 of the open source that is OBS. They just kind of took it and said, well, we're going to take this in our own direction. But the underpinnings, the guts are sort of still the same. But this one little thing, this one little like, I don't know, this abnormality
Starting point is 01:14:49 of one lets me hotkey and the other one doesn't, that made all the difference for me. Yeah. Cool. Anyway, I hope that helped. Yeah, thank you. It's good to talk to you. Go shave your Maddox, or however that works.
Starting point is 01:15:03 Hello. That's going to do it for your calls. Thank you for calling in. We love a call now when it happens, except we miss Jerry, and we wish him the best in his move. Yeah, his travels are going well. Yeah, I can't imagine there'll be any issues.
Starting point is 01:15:18 I mean, I don't know how many drive-in stops you can find that have vegan food, so Ashley, good luck on that. But I'm sure Justin will navigate the highways and byways of this fine nation just fine to make it there safe. All right. That's it for the show. A quick reminder about the boop show this afternoon, 330. I mentioned it earlier, but it's happening today live. And I'm just excited because I want to talk about this damn mech mechanic game.
Starting point is 01:15:42 And I want to do it with you guys. So come show up and listen and then find out what chicken police is about from Brian Dunaway. That's today at 330 Mountain Time or on the podcast afterwards. And I think between now and tomorrow, that's all there is. Unless Brian, you've got something. Anything popping today besides... Nothing, no shows popping. Oh, well, yeah, I don't think we're doing it live.
Starting point is 01:16:03 I'm going to be a guest on the botched podcast. They're doing Patreon episodes, which is why I don't think they're going to be live. But if you're a fan of live D&D, like there will be dungeons, the botched crew is creating a special time-travely edition of a D&D campaign that we're going to run for two hours tonight. Oh, that's great. A little one-off. Yeah, a little one-off.
Starting point is 01:16:27 So I'm going to see how that goes. It should be fun. People keep asking when Brian will be a one-off guest on there will be Dungeons. Yeah, I keep asking that too. Yeah, we should just make it happen. I don't know why we don't. We should make it happen. That's right.
Starting point is 01:16:44 Next campaign change whenever it's convenient. Totally. That's right. And we will do that one live. We'll do it live. All right. Do a live. That's going to do it for the show.

Starting point is 01:18:14 a song that was uh written and originally released by jone byez you know, good old 60s and 70s stalwart Joan Baez covered very famously by Judas Priest and also by a band called Thunderstone. We're going to hear the Thunderstone version right now. This is a song that she wrote about Bob Dylan, although she never really publicly said it was about Bob Dylan.
Starting point is 01:18:38 I guess she did in her book, but it was always speculated that it was about Bob Dylan. This is the song Diamonds and Rust performed by Thunderstone back in 2000. Here's Diamonds and Rust. Nice. Shout out to Carter, my daughter, who is a massive Judas Priest fan. She loves them. Oh, cool. Then she'll like this. Yeah. Listen to their new music, too.
