Don't eat that. It's Pluto. Hello, everybody. Welcome to TMS. It's the morning stream. Welcome to TMS. It's the morning stream.

It's Monday, July 29th, 2024. I'm Scott Johnson, and that's Brian Ibbett. Hello, I'm back. I'm back for those of you who don't listen to the live show and the pre-show and stuff. And this is the first time you're hearing me in almost a week. I'm back. Yeah, and you sound pretty good, I have to say. You sound like we're over the hump.

And F-COVID. First of all, F-COVID. All right. F-COVID. Yeah, F-COVID. And F, so I'm sure that it came from one of two places. Oh, I like this. This is fun.

Yeah, yeah. Either somebody at the Colorado Rapids game. And when we were all under the concourse covered area at the stadium when the rain was pouring down, it was sea of people level. It was Comic-Con Hall H level. Oh, right. I forgot all about this whole, remember the sideways wind? the stinging rain and all that. I forgot. Before we had to run out to the parking lot and try and find the car, we were all collected

under the east and west concourses and undercover. And we were so close that if one person, you know, there could easily have been a patient zero with one little 16 people of a sudden of COVID. Yeah. The other company is a lift ride, a woman that I picked up. in Erie, Colorado and drove to the interlocking um, uh,

the technical, uh, park, technical, what do you call that? Where all the, all the tech buildings are together, like,

you don't know what you call that, because usually you have like, uh, yeah, tech center, I like that, tech center. That works. And,

um, during that 20 minute ride, the whole time, uh, oh, like, like, kind of clearing her throat constantly.

and sniffing and uh and i know where she lives do you know that's true because you dropped her off you know what's up i dropped her i picked her up i know exactly where she lives i could leave a a turd in her mailbox whatever i mean i don't know if this was really her but um it's i mean that could be you're in your car think about that you're in this little car not even little but you know normal car and there's only that air in there and that's entirely possible that she was your patient zero in there easily could have been yeah but uh yeah and and uh brainbo bright bright ass well didn't Tina have it too she did but she had it two weeks ago so I feel like I feel like I don't think I got it from Tina I definitely think I got it from an outside source but who

knows yeah because you guys stayed away from each other when she was not testing positive you were in the clear I think you're right and that is this makes this whole story more ironic and awful that right after she gets it you're in the clear you dodge the bullet and then you walked outside and everybody shot at you again. Lame. Exactly. Exactly. And there's a little part of me that's like I kind of didn't, my last booster was October. It's like, oh, it's been

more than, you know, I probably should have gotten one in April to kind of stay on the six month track. But hey, at least now that I've got it, I probably don't need to, I'm good for like, what, three months or something and then I could get a booster after three months. Because right now my system A is still finding it. Oh, yeah, I probably should give the update. Still have it. Did a test this morning. So this is the only Deadpool I'll be seeing the near future. It's insane to me that Scott

has seen Deadpool and Brian hasn't. Obviously, the circumstances made it this way, but it's crazy to say the words. Oh, Brian hasn't seen Deadpool. I have. It's crazy. It's like me seeing Furiosa before you. Oh, I did see Furioso before you. Or it would be. seeing dune two i think i saw dune two before you was well did you i saw it on opening weekend but you may have gone early like day i thought on the thursday night we usually do thursday nights uh just because it's there's less of a crowd and and um so we went to the theater by the way with uh so it's where um right near where k t data lives kevin lives yeah and it's this regal regal's one of the bigger you know the chains that i usually don't get to go to because there aren't any regals

at this end of the valley but where he lives this really nice regal theater and we went to whatever they call their RPX theater. It's like tons of rumbly bass and kind of an IMAX-like display and all this stuff. Very nice. He, going there kind of convinced me

that if there was a regal near me, I would probably do their version of the monthly because it's very loose with the rules. You can go see multiple movies a day. There are no real restrictions. It was cool. It kind of made me think,

ooh, see more movies. And then the trailer for Romulus came on and a few other things. I'm like, shit, I've got to go around. Yeah, I'm in the, we're in the age now, or not the age. We're in that stretch now where it's like, all right, trap this Thursday. Excited to see that. I should be in the clear before then. Romulus, two weeks from Thursday.

Like, basically, we've pre-bought all of our tickets for, for all of the big blockbusters that we want to see. Yeah, well, and you, so, we talked about this pretty sure. We talked about pre-show, but you were talking about maybe sneaking in Deadpool this week. Yeah, basically, as soon as I test negative, yeah.

It's so weird. I mean, I know. It's, you know, it just, it feels weird to say I want something negative. I'm the dude who always likes to keep things positive and keep it light and go with the flow, but I don't want positive right now. I want negative. but yeah I think unbeknownst to Tina

who's listening to this show right now and will call me out on it I will I will sneak out to the movie theater during the day and see Deadpool and Wolverine with fully knowing because I can go see it for free

with the Alamo draft pass right? Yeah that's true and then as soon as Tina's ready to see it again boom we'll go see it again I'll have to happily see it twice I'm sure I will Why not? But yeah no

you haven't seen any chance changes to the way that all works since Sony bought it, right? It's all the same. No, no. And so far, so good, you know, Sony's kept the Alamo Draft House management in place, and they've even said in a press release, we know that there is a unique experience that you get with the Alamo Draft House that you don't get with other theaters, and we have no intention of changing any of that. Like, we want to keep the quirky, we want to keep the weird, we want to keep all that weird graphic stuff that looks like it comes from a pulp novel from the 60s, We want, you know, you get metal bowls of popcorn and not paper containers of popcorn. We want to keep all that.

Sure. Not cut costs, not cut the experience. So, so far, Sony's been really good about it. I hope what it means is a huge injection of cash that lets them expand and put more around the country. Because I would love an Alamo draft house here. That would be. Oh, for sure. And obviously, I'd like for them to be able to treat their employees better.

I watched a little a video about it unionizing. Basically, these poor employees for Alamo Draft House have to run in the dark, bringing food to people and doing it hunched over the entire time so that they don't block people's view. And only, you know,

not every location lets people take off time for back issues or get them the medical assistance they need or things like that. So they definitely need to do right by their employees. Yeah, I agree. It's funny, though, like usual, you know, when that place started out or when it was in its like early heyday or mid-2000s, none of this was an issue, obviously.

They were one location. They were doing this amazing thing. Stuff always gets complicated when you start to scale, you know? Yeah, absolutely. And then people are like, oh, no, wait a minute. We're losing track of what matters. I can't imagine people not having back problems, even when it was just one location. Maybe they had enough people working there that they could give more people time off and say,

all right, yeah, you work today. You're off tomorrow because we don't want to make you have to hunch for two days in a row or something. But I think there is something to that. I kind of want one here. I hope they do it. Anyway, it was, uh, Deadpool was awesome. And so I can't wait for you to see it because of all the marble people I know in my life, you're the most marvelous. And, uh, you'll know.

The marvelous Mr. Ribit. You'll know all kinds of shit I don't know. And you'll, you'll be able to point out things I missed. And I've, I've since done deep dives on Easter eggs and all that stuff. But there's still a few others. I'm like, I don't know what that dude is. And Brian will go, oh, I know what he is. He was an issue of 55 of the first run of whatever in the Silver Age.

And I'll be like, oh, okay. Right. So I am looking forward to you seeing it. I can talk openly with somebody about it. I'm not doing it on shows. We're not going to spoil anything. I will say it is my favorite MCU movie since Endgame.

And I mean that wholeheartedly. It's very good. And people should see it. It's good. That's a low. It's a low part. It is kind of low, right? There's been some good stuff.

I even told you I enjoyed Quantumania quite a bit. But it's like nothing was like Infinity War and Endgame. Yeah, Infinity War and Endgame. still still the top for me and that's going to be the thing they have to that they have to surpass with these new upcoming Avengers films we'll talk about this yeah go ahead yeah we'll talk more with Stephen but they just got it they got to wrangle it all together that was the best thing about the first the phases was right one phase one phase two hey

we're introducing all these characters but don't worry they're coming back all together to you know be part of this thing that we have at the end of each phase this is this introducing this character and introducing this pair of characters out in space and introducing this guy

who's kind of a Greek god wow but not having any sort of like oh yeah he's going to be part of this other thing and oh these two are part of this bigger thing and it's like that's what we need

that's what we need to get back to you need to have a it needs to culminate at some point right? It needs to culminate and I'm hoping without doing any confirmation or anything

I'm hoping that even starting with Deadpool and Wolverine, whatever they do as a stinger or as a mid-credit scene, starts to pull the strands together. Yeah, me too. Man, you know what? Your first cough of the day? I think you're doing all right.

Well, first cough of the show. Or, yeah, a cough of the show, I should say. That's my least favorite thing about COVID was how gnarly it was in the morning. I hated it. Yeah. Oh, my gosh, this whole time. I was just like, I wish I could take this from Brian and like some kind of deity and just lift it from you and give it to someone I don't like.

Everyone could take 1% of what I have and just kind of spread around. You all wouldn't even feel it. You wouldn't even feel that 1% of COVID that would be in you. But then, you know, we would all share the load. That's what this community is all about. That's right. But I swear to you right now, there's like three or four out of 10 people I know right now on average that have either gotten it or had it recently. Most of the people at our tad pool meet up for the movie had had it recently, like in early July.

The surge is real, baby. The surge is real. Watch out. Be careful. Stay out of crowds. If you can, you know, still, you know, we may not be at the point of, like, mass hospitalizations, but I want everyone to be healthy and happy. Yeah, exactly. Just stay home. And if you start feeling bad, stay home, feel, you know, wait until you're feeling better. Test and then test again in two days. Because remember, I tested on Tuesday, test it on Tuesday. And then tested positive on Thursday. So if you're not feeling good, keep, you know, do two tests. That's why they put two tests in a box. That's the other sneaky shit about that thing is it doesn't give you a positive test to later. Freaking bastard virus. Exactly. Yes.

It's like a... Oh, I hate it. It's like an SNL delay for... A old rocket drop in an F-bomb or something. A seven-second broadcast delay? Exactly. That's good. All right.

I need a newer reference. It's like Saturday Live with a seven-second delay because Jenny Slate drops an F-bomb in her first. ever sketch poor girl she she would have she had great work to do there they shouldn't they shouldn't let her go she did you know what she did just fine after that just fine she's okay she's doing what she needs to do her slate is clean uh Brian let's talk about the oily Olympics for a minute yes the oily Olympics uh I've seen more Olympics this year than I did all of the entirety of four years ago um I don't know why I just I well I know why because I got the Bacock, right? I got the Bacock.

Oh, yeah, yeah, the Bacock helps. 99 cents a month for six months or whatever they gave me. I know. What a great deal. They have a great method of coverage, right? You just go to the Olympics tab and then say, here's the sport I want to watch. Oh, well, we have the trials. We have the this division thing and we have the finals and blah, blah, blah. It's like, oh, great, let me watch the finals. I have to say it's really good.

Like they understand the assignment when it comes to our digital world of like, how do I get this content? and how do I have time-delayed stuff, live stuff? Like, I can't believe I'm saying this, but NBC, a.k.a. you know, company what owns Peacock, Universal. You guys did it. You kind of nailed it. And I haven't had any glitches, having any outages. Like, it's been weirdly good. So, anyway, congratulations to the United States,

which currently leads with 12 medals overall. Second place, France. They get the home court advantage. They're always going to have, you know. That's how this works. works. They have eight. Japan. Oh, this may have changed overnight, by the way. I did this last night, and I don't know if anything has happened since last night, but you got seven for Japan, Australia with six, South Korea was six, so tied with Australia. Here's the thing. That's your top five. United States only has three gold medals, though. The rest are made up with silvers and bronze, lots of silvers. However, put me on big screen, Scott. Put me on big. Oh, what are you doing? Oh, you got the kitty. Yeah, kitty, kitty. This ups our numbers, by the way. This ups our views is having a cat.

There's a huge spike at this point of the show. That's what you want out of that. Yes. Japan technically, Japan and Australia tying the lead for most gold medals. So good job Japan and Australia. Well done. Lucky Phil, how do you feel about your country's performance

in the gold medal category? You have no bronzes, no third places down there in Australia. That's pretty impressive. Wow, no kidding. If you go for it, you go all the way. much, or second to all the way. The second to all the way. But I was like watching the metal counts because it's just fun.

I don't see Russia on here. Are they participating this year? Did I miss something? What do they call them? It's not called the refugee team. What do they call the Russian or the people who are not part of? Russia and Belarus are out, says the chat. Yeah, there's like a team made up of athletes from.

Russia. They had their own boat. It was great. I wanted to say it was called the unaffiliated. That's what it was. Yeah. I missed that whole bit because I meant to, I didn't see the whole like boat parade. I only saw parts of it. And I was like, well, let's see what the Russians got this year. And then it hit me. It's like, oh, wait, they're probably not there because of the Ukraine war thing. I don't know. Like, I have no. Is the Ukraine there? Are they representing? Yeah. Ukraine has, yeah, they've got some players. let's see who uh russia belarus is it just russia it's just russia and belarus oh let's see balaurs oh hold on chat says china has the most gold they're not even the top five did something

happen overnight where they want a bunch of stuff we'll see oh i don't know gold count or it we'll see metal count i did this last night and it may have changed um no we're still at 12 10 for france France has earned two more medals since last night. China at third with nine total. Oh, they've jumped up, yeah. Well, Japan with eight and then Great Britain with eight. Sorry, Australia, you're out. But, yeah, China's not leading.

Oh, they're leading in golds. Yes, they have five gold medals, so that's what that is. Yeah. All right. Well, good luck to all of them as they continue to, you know, have a lot of sex at the, the, what do you call that? Village. Can they have sex on those horrible cardboard beds? That's the thing.

It feels like doing it on an Amazon box or something. Yeah. I wonder, there's always like talk of how many condoms they go through and all that kind of stuff. Yeah, yeah. I mean, kind of, you know, if you can, it's like the most, the people with the best stamina all clustered together in one place, I kind of think it's bound to happen. It's just kind of a natural thing. It's like...

Yeah, I don't even think it was skeevy or anything. It's like part of you're in your... Not only you're in your prime. You are in a very special kind of prime. It's like the hottest, strongest summer camp ever. And of course, everybody's with no counselors. Yeah. And you're all 18 to like 23.

You know, it's not like there's some... There's not like some guy down the hall who's in his 40s going, You guys keep it down over there. I'm trying to sleep. It's not like that. Hey, shoot over. here. I love that.

Well, anyway, good luck to everybody who cares about such things. And this year, I care more than I have in a long time. So I'm enjoying it. Is there any particular event? You're like, oh, can't wait. I still like watching. I can't wait to watch break dancing. I haven't seen any break dancing yet.

I watched some surfing yesterday that was fun. It's just because you've basically. it's like a bunch of people ready to do the 300 meter dash, but they just got to wait for the track to kind of level out for a second, and then they go. That's kind of what the equivalent is. Sure. But the surfing is fun to watch because, oh man, these guys are amazing.

These people, these athletes are amazing. They're going through the curl and you don't see them for a second. And poof, they come out the other side. like oh my god that was such a great one so sure sure someone says grinder crashed during the early days of the Olympics let's see oh really because of overuse at the Olympic village I did see the grinder data that showed a huge up to every time there's a convention a political convention and by the way this isn't just the Republican one the Democratic one goes up to but every time there's a political convention in a specific city you see that thing just go like a giant spike

maybe more farmers only during the Republican that's still a site right what's the I think so what's the and what's the too many fish or what's the the one that's got kind of a Christian bent to it

so many fit well that one makes sense to me that one makes sense right like you would think that that plenty of fish yeah but like when Grindr goes up at a when Grindr goes up at a when Grindr

goes up at a conservative convention yeah that's true that one is a little more oh really okay interesting i mean i don't care what you're doing with your private time do what you want to do but quit telling us how to do it that's all uh brian oh christian mingle well yeah that one i assume that one's christian bent i would hope because really they just you know they just get together to mingle yeah it's right there in their name it's just ice cream socials yeah a little like a milkshake you know uh here's a quick email from Rob about Olympic stuff. He says, this, he's a correction for me or really just calling me out. He says,

Scott doesn't like Olympic basketball because the NBA players come in and quote, wipe everyone's ass, unquote. That's what I said. You did say that, yes. And he says, I've heard of wiping the floor with them or kicking their ass, even whipping their ass, or whoop

their ass, but wiping their ass? I mean, it's a, I, you know what, in the moment, I probably should have said whoop or wipe the floor or something like that, but for whatever reason, it was a, you just don't want to see, you just don't want to see the NBA Ream team come in and, uh, the ream team nicely done. That was great. Uh, come in and, uh, I mean, my point still stands.

They come in and they destroy. That was my point is it's just not fun to be so dominant in a thing. I want some competition. Like with, you know, you have Michael Phelps every year. Like, okay, all right. Now Phelps. We get it. really good yeah he's just i guess he's commentator now is all he does right now like he's not

he's too old to compete yeah he's he's 22 and retired or whatever it is however that works he's got a sweet man bun i noticed that thing oh really oh yeah he's doing because he was part of the what do you call him the the commentator team for the some of the swim the early swimming stuff and he's got this badass if you like that sort of thing big old big old man bun back there you know yeah yeah and you're like oh he's an old old and retired. It's like, oh, what is he, 25 now? Something like that. Yeah, right. Exactly. Lame. Man bun. Come on, Phelps. But just do this. Picture a basketball court,

an Olympic-sized basketball court, whatever that means. I guess it's just a standard basketball court. And picture the entire teams out there and the U.S. team just going player to player and wiping their butts. I mean, that front to back, yeah, that front to back, it's a fun visual. know so that's all i'm saying it is yeah you're sure uh brian we need to call done away yeah there's certain players you don't want to uh no no to have the you don't want to be the wiper the wiper the wipee to certain people correct um all right we're going to call done away we're going to play a game and uh this will be fun because it's our first in a while i'm looking forward to this so uh here's the uh the intro for it

joining us on the line right now we have our friend brian dunaway who joins us from salt salt lake city from so sorry from south carolina south salt carolina what's going on there brian dunnaway oh hi scott and brian i'm enjoying my salts here in the carolina hey hey i had a great i had a great weekend did you hear i did so you got to hang out with tonda gosa the whole weekend and that sounded like a blast and i was very jealous um you went to arcades and saw some weird stuff. I don't even know what that Pong machine was that you were playing. I need to know more.

That Pong machine was way cool. So it's like a Pong table. But instead of, it's like a real Pong table with magnets and stuff. There's like these little blocks that you can rotate and move with with paddles. But they're all attached some magnets. And it's so weird because the ball doesn't move at full speed. It's kind of like almost like a Muppet speed.

It's like it feels like it's got a stick or something. You're actually playing with a physical Pong paddles. Yeah, I've seen me. They're crazy. That's cool. That's crazy. So there's no vision. There's no digital display at all, right?

No, it's all real deal, three-dimensional stuff with neon lights and stuff. It was way cool. But it was really, me and Ton, only played that for two seconds. We really got the weekend started off by stopping it. Remember that local arcade I told you was opening up? They finally opened up on the day that Tonda came down. They must have heard. So Greenwood, Gamer Arcade.

Shout out to those guys. They had their grand opening. We got to drop in, got to meet the owners. They're great. I can't wait to go back and do it some more. But what I didn't know was Tonda's gotten big into pinball. And guess who else is now into pinball? Is me?

It's you, is it? How's that Johnny Mnemonic? How's that Johnny Mnemonic pinball machine? I played her for about two minutes and I'm out. Lasted longer than I would have. I love the idea. Even the pinball machine would have Brian quitting midball or something. This would be no sense.

Goodbye. I'm out of here. I had no clue. You know, we've been playing retro games, me and Scott for a while doing the play retro show. I had no idea that it was such a resurgence of pinball. Every pinball place I went to,

and I went to three, and they're all in South Carolina. And every one of them was packed. It was pay one time, play all day, and it was games from back in the, you know, 60s,

70s, all the way up to more, modern stuff. You can use a QR scan code so you can keep your track, your GIVOs. I'm hooked. Can I ask you one question? Oh, go ahead. Yeah.

Go ahead. Tina are going to the Texas pinball festival in October. Nice. And I can't wait. It is one of my favorite things because it's, it is a conference room, a convention hall filled with pinball machines that are all set for open play. And some of them are custom. a lot of these are people's private collections

that they're nice enough to let people play so you don't want to hit the tilt too hard on them but no there was one that we saw a few years ago where somebody taking the brand new Star Trek machine bought a duplicate, bought two of them, kept one the same and then turned the other one into mirror image evil version of Star Trek. That is brilliant.

The characters on the backglass had the goatees, things worked in reverse on the other machine. It was great. It was so good. That's awesome. We played some, we played a custom Indiana Jones one. It had all the movies in it. It was, I didn't know nothing.

Tonda was leading me around going, this is the thing with the thing. And I'm like, I know. Cool. Brian, you're going to see, that is to say, Brian Nibbitt, are you going to see what's their names this year? The Nannolis? Yes. We didn't see him in Vegas.

Where were they this year? No, they couldn't make it to Vegas, unfortunately. Rusty and Shelley. But they are who. are hosting us at the Texas pinball festival. So once again, hosting us and two

nicer people, I don't know if I could find. No, they're extremely nice. Like, they give Texas a good name, for real. They do.

They're sidehuggers, though. Not straight on huggers, but they kind of be the side of thing. Okay. You know, hey, I'm,

whatever, just no back-hugging. Like, no. I'm with, you, no back hugging. Please, no backhooking. Please stay away from my back.

Gross. Yeah, maybe I know why they side hug. Never mind. I think I just figured it out. Oh, no. Oh, is it you? Yeah. Is it me?

Oh, it's me. It was me the whole time. Well, that's awesome. Let's play this game. I'm very excited because I don't know. It just feels like it's been, well, it has been two episodes without it or something. Yeah. Scott missed a Monday.

I missed a Wednesday. No, no game show. No fun. None. are my fault. No fun when Brian's not here. So just kidding, Bobby. Of course there is.

Hey, let's get to the asses here. Welcome to the morning half asses. A trivia game where I'm actually going to be giving the two of you the answers. I'm going to give Scott and Brian a category and six possible answers, three of which are correct and three like wiping the asses of the opposing NBA team are incorrect. Depending on how confident they feel with the category, they can provide one, two or three or three guesses. But if any of those guesses are wrong, they get zero points for that round, get one right,

gets you a point two right gets you three points three right gets you five points we're going to add up all the points at the end and the player with the most points points points points for their contestant uh let's hear who those contestants are scott you're playing for michael in edmonton alberta frequent texter and message lever and yeah and all around uh cool person still have still have half a bottle of that gin mike yeah he's gin mike he's awesome him him and his uh lovely wife uh were two of my favorite people in Vegas this year. They were great. I think maybe it doesn't go by Mike.

So I called, I fixed it. Michael, Michael. Michael, sorry. Brian, you're playing Doug in Hagerstown, Maryland. Doug, let's do it, Doug. I'm Doug, and I'm out of here. The state, the state. Yeah, well done, the state. I used to love the state.

State was great. And then it became Reno 911, and that was just the way it was. Yeah, that's the way it was. All right, let's get to it. Your first question here, this is, remember, six correct answers, six, three, I'm sorry, six answers, three of which are correct, three are incorrect. I forget the rules to my own damn game. Question number one, top U.S. dog names. Which of these were in the top ten U.S. male dog names as of 2019? Don't know how much these things change. Your choices are Cooper, Zeus, Buddy, Toby, Jack, and Buster. Three of these are dogs names that were in the top ten. in 2019, three of them were not. I'm going to do two that I'm fairly confident about and then hope for Brian to do worse. I'm going to also do two, two, do do two.

Do, do, two. Excellent. All right. So, did I have you and say what these names are. You guys both settled on Jack, right? Jack. Both of you said Jack. Jack was number five in 2019.

Very good. I think these are all. These are all in the potential name of the person sitting next to Cheryl Crowell, while she's watching the fine people of L.A. wash their cars and all we want to do. Bill or Buddy or Jack or Zeus or whatever. Bill or Buddy or Jack or Zeus. Sure. So where you guys differentiated on your two is one of you said Zeus, the other one of you said Buddy.

Man, no one of his name is their dog, Zeus. I had a dog named Zeus and my sister had a dog named Zeus. I have a lot of Zeus dogs in my life. That's good. You all think you're a long time ago. I will say that one of you picked a name that is number four. The other one picked a name that is number 17. So let's see who got it right.

Brian. Damn that. Everybody who I know, everybody gets these little tiny yippy dogs and they name them Zeus because it's like the opposite of what that dog should be. So I always think that's more popular than it is. I think that makes sense. And that was a good, I feel like that made a lot of sense. Cooper, number three in 2019, as far as popular dog.

A brown dog for some reason, I think. That's copper. Cooper, copper. Why not? Where's Toby and Buster on this list? Pretty low? Toby number 13 and Buster, number 29. Oh, Buster Brown.

Yeah, more popular during the heyday of arrested development, less popular now. Yeah. I feels like also kind of old-timey, like somebody in the 40s would name their dog. Yeah. Come on, Bester, let's go. Come here, Buster. sir, we got to help Eisenhower win this war kind of thing. Anyway, do our part.

All right, let's get to, speaking of which, let's get to question number two, which of these states will you find if you're getting your kicks on Route 66? Your choices are New York, Oklahoma, Nevada, Texas, Illinois, and Michigan. You're driving from one end of Route 66 to the other. Which states, which of these states will you pass through? I've never driven Route 66. and I know this I know the song I just don't know Scott are you a root 66

Like can you think of places named in the song maybe That's what I'm trying to do And I'm all doing it is blank and I'm just to say in the chorus Yeah There's a couple of obvious ones that aren't even on here That that's where you That's how they get you I just how they get you

Yeah I'm going to stick with those three But I am doing three because I don't want to I want to die here I think of one Okay it's probably me wrong You say you went one But you went one but you went for two

Okay I'm going for two I'm going for two All right The two you Let's see Well you both settled on Nevada No believe it or not It just goes right under the southern tip of Nevada

Stays in Arizona The whole time Your answers were Oklahoma Texas and Illinois You had two of the three right But Nevada tripped you up It tripped me up too When I did this question

question before I put the answers in. I guessed exactly those three, Texas, Oklahoma, and Nevada. Illinois surprised me, but it does. It starts in Chicago, goes south from Chicago. I was thinking it was started in Chicago, but I was 100% sure, and I didn't mean to click on it, and I did anyway. Well, the Michigan one's a sneaky one because some people might go, oh, Michigan, like Detroit, like where all cars come from here in the States. I might be perfect. And so I was like hovering over that a little. Oh, interesting. But I didn't do it. It seemed too obvious. this. Boy, we had a big time with Detroit

the weekend, though, didn't we? Like Staff, Arizona. Don't forget Winona. Oklahoma City is so, so pretty. Yeah, we had great time with Detroit, aka freaking Atlanta, Georgia. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Right. They didn't try very hard. Detroit and Robocop 3. All right, well, going into the last round, Brian has three points. Scott has zero. Let's see if we can change things up. Which of these celebrities were married more than six times. Oh, Jesus. Not six times,

but more than six times. More than six times. More than six times. Let's just say seven or more times. Richard Pryor, Larry King, Lana Turner, Joan Collins, Tony Curtis, and Rita Hayworth. Geez. Three of these people were married seven times or more. Three of them were not. I don't like this one.

Man. I don't like Richard Pryor. was that many. We had a lot of kids, though, didn't he? He sure did. He had like a million or something. Did he? I heard yesterday

Musk has 12 or more. Oh, really? That he knows of, yeah. Yeah. He gets... But only one of them has a mathematical formulas in him. Yeah.

He parks his model X in a lot of garages, if you know what I'm saying. Let's see. I'm just, I don't know, dude. This is such, like, our, not our generation of human beings to... Exactly. That's, you know... Kind of the idea, I suppose.

I was the same... I wonder if this was before, like, you know, it started becoming a thing where if you got married and then you get a divorce that you would lose at least half. I wonder if this is kind of like, you can't do this in modern times because you can't half that many times. Yeah. Pretty soon you're dividing by zero.

and that's a mathematical impossibility. Yeah. All right. Well, we both locked in three each. Wait, did you do three? Yeah,

you did. Oh, you did two. I was looking at your score. Sorry. Okay. Brian, Brian only did two.

You both said Larry King. Yeah, Larry King married eight times. Yeah, as of 2019, when this question was written. You also both said Joan Collins. Joan Collins only married five times.

Shit. Only. Only. There's your. unfortunately means that Brian takes it away with three points. What do you mean, unfortunately? Unfortunately, nobody got any points on that round. Oh, okay.

Pryor married seven times. Larry King and Lana Turner each married eight times. How many, do we know how many? Did any of those marry each other at any point in time? No. That'd be great, right? Richard Pryor. Richard Pryor and Tony Curtis got married later on.

Right, right, right. Tony Curtis married six times, Rita Hayworth, and the Shawshank Redemption married. five times. Oh, my. Well, you throw a pebble through her and she goes crazy. Oh, no, wait, that was, they didn't throw the pebble till it was, what's her name?

Tell her tell her well, yeah, it was later on. So that means Brian wins and Brian wins for Doug in Agerstown, Maryland, congratulations. Doug, you're going to be getting a copy of Zoddy and a plague tale Recklium. Oh, that's a good one. Oh, yeah, real good.

Those courtesy of nighttime visions. But this other one, I almost took for myself really excited about this. Michael in Edmonton, you're going to be getting a copy of Starship Starship Troopers Terran Command, which I have to imagine is like a base building and resources kind of game. Yeah, got to be right. No, it is a, uh, think of it is like, so you know, okay, so you know the Hell Divers two game that everybody was raving about where you just killing a lot of bugs. It's basically, it's kind of not a rip off, but it's a lot like that. Anyway,

that's what this game is. So it's you, it's first person, and it's you mowing down. down bugs like by the hundreds and you know wow i've been doing that a lot in um uh no man sky boy being sick probably the the best thing and the worst thing for no man sky for me is i played it like crazy the last several days well i've been i played it a bunch too dude i have found some planets that are i mean they have really up to their game it's so pretty and so well done and the clouds look real now and it like looks like a damn planet they really i found a paradise planet and i said i'm putting a base here I love this place.

Yeah, you got to go with your gut in that game because there are infinite planets. You may as well pick a good one while you find it. Yep. That's great. Everybody wins today. These are all great games. And I think this was super fun.

Mostly because Brian Dunaway was here with us, you know, man, just having you here, it's like a little mini wet dream for all of us. You know that? Oh, that is really gross. And thank you. And I also want to say thank you to upstate pinball and arcade museum and radioactive pinball in Aiken.

and of course the grand opening congratulations to the Greenwood Gamer Arcade I can't wait to play some more pinball and I missed Tonda already. Yeah, did he give you a gentle kiss on the way out or how'd that go with you two? On the back as I was walking away. Of course not. On the back

I was walking away. I'm like, what is that? Yeah, I was walking away. I'm like, what is that? I'm like, oh, no, Tonda's great. He just gives you a little kiss between the shoulder blades. This is a little... That's right. Yeah, I don't know if he'll hear this, but we of course kid

Brian kiss our butts and have a fantastic week we'll see you on Wednesday bye bye I usually says no you no you I don't want to happen there

the one thing is missing in no man sky like if anytime you land it on a new planet you got like a little guitar kind of

like a firefly sounding oh yeah like you just landed there might be like a probably a mod or something maybe I'm playing on PS5. Oh, that's right.

Oh, I will say, I've been using the PS remote play with this. So sitting on the couch, two and I're watching a show. And, but I'll have my little game stick, whatever you call that, joystick. No, it's a game pad. Game pad. There you go. Dual shock. Dual shock, sure.

Or dual sense. So the new one's the dual sense, but that works either way. Or dual sense. Yeah. And plays pretty well. There's a tiny little bit of like, if I flick a move, it doesn't, it responds like half a second later, which makes it a little bit tough when I'm chasing down pirates attacking my freighter and stuff like that. But as far as like, hop in here, collect some resources. Oh, no, you got, you need to go find a base and get some wiring looms and blah, blah, blah.

That part, totally fine. Yeah, remote play works really well. It's especially good on that device they sell. the what's it called the portal that thing's really really good the latency on it is exceptionally low I don't know why it's not as good when I do it to a phone or an iPad or something else I wish that was faster Sony could probably explain why but yeah they're very cool they're not bad but gotta get it on sale you know find it for yeah I don't get to get on sale and and glasses like you got to wear like magnifiers to use it like what I'm

wearing now I mean they're able to read the text of like a mission that's true they are much smaller it's like uh i mean it's bigger than a phone obviously but it's it's still you know any game with smaller text is going to have that problem i guess yeah i think so they're pretty cool though um all right we're gonna do no news because we don't have time but i am gonna say this our pal bobby franks who sat in for you on thursday very kindly of him to do that because we weren't sure how you were feeling and you were feeling pretty rotten that day crummy that day that was that was uh low point day uh one of Was that fever day?

I think it was fever day. That was fever day. Yeah, it was fever day. Fever only lasted for like a day, maybe a day and a half for me. It was amazing. The fever came and went. That's great. Mine was four days last time when I had it the first time.

And it sucked ass. Like literally latched on to ass and sucked. I hated it. Wow. I'll never, I don't ever. The, the NBA dream team did. They're just wiping. It's fine.

Yeah. It's just good. good hygiene. Anyway, he has a channel that he's been streaming some games on and I wanted to give him some props for that. Twitch.tv slash Bobby Franks. I know he was, I know he's going to be streaming like crazy when Shapes 2 with a Z comes out. And not very long, like a couple of weeks or not even that. Something like that. I'm so excited about that game. Anyway, he and I are kind of addicted to it. When that comes out, he will definitely be there. So check it out. You don't watch Bobby stream? Twitch.combe slash Bobby Franks.

Awesome. I might do some streaming if I ever get it. a Marvel Rivals Beta, closed beta ticket. By the way, anybody out there have a Marvel Rivals closed beta ticket? Yeah. How y'all doing with that closed beta ticket? Find it my way.

We could probably find somebody with something. I hope. I hope. Somebody listens. I'll get like a, we probably have a core listener or somebody. Oh, Schleiker got his yesterday. Did you get it by watching a Twitch stream? Is that what they were doing? Yeah, you have to watch somebody's Twitch

stream when they're dropping tickets and they're doing it again at six mountain time today so oh you got yours in the email maybe you still will maybe it's still coming well come on come on all right let's get to this let's get to a song

yeah do it familiar with a band some of you are familiar with a band called foals F-O-A-L-S you know like the small horse this is a new creative project from a guy from Foles named Janus Philippaacus I think he's Greek

He has a brand new song This is his band He's called Yannis and the Yaa This new song is Rain Can't Reach Us No it's not It's called Walk Through the Fire Walk Through Fire

Because he released two singles And this is the one I picked Walk Through Fire features Tony Allen On this one Here is Janus and the Yaw Down between the devil in the deep blue sea, no rest for you and no peace for me. with a power that be No free under fire

Oh, you said my name Let me see the moment. This is my love. Oh, I see my name. Oh, I'm sorry. I know what I'm doing.

I pulled this same stunt in university. You cut the to-ky! And we've returned. Tell everybody who that was one more time. Sure, that is Janus and the Y-A-N-N-N-I-S and the Y-A-N-N-N-I-S and the Y-A-W. you. Yanis and the, a brand new single, I'm sorry, an EP from them called Lagos, Paris, London, featuring Tony Allen. That is the song, Walk Through Fire. Nice. Go Walk Through Fire, you guys, and listen to that song. Yeah. Hey, guess what? We got one of these here, deals. And now welcome Stephen to the show. He's a huge freaking nerd. Dollar Dollar Bill, y'all. He is indeed. It's Stephen Schlecker, who we've missed terribly. We haven't had him for a bit. And, you know, he's been driving all night, home from Wisconsin. I don't know what you were doing there. Do you want to tell us what you were doing in Wisconsin?

What was going on? I don't hear you. You're muted. You can't hear you. Must be muted of some sort of mute. There's no sound coming out of, oh, and he disappeared. Yep, he'll be rejoining us. One would assume, sounds like he's got a, uh, some kind of deal going on there.

Whoops. Cancel that. Oh, shit. Hold on. Hold on. Okay. Hello. There you go.

I, uh, I hit call. instead of ring. And I've done that before and I'll probably do it again. These buttons are awful close to each other. What's great is that I still see you on Zoom. So it's like, hmm, okay. And you just say, yep, one second. I'll be there.

Don't you worry with your little heads. Oh, that's good. A real quick note here, as says, as someone who does not subscribe to anything YouTube related or has a ad blocker installed, zero ads during the first half of today's show on YouTube. So YouTube not showing ads.

That's good. I try to make it that way for live streams and then, you know, regular YouTube stuff can do whatever it does. But I always turn that off for live streams. So it's another reason I kind of want to do it here is because you get them on Twitch unless you sub to the channel. So anyway, Stephen, there he is. Hello.

Can you hear us? No, still muted. Nope. We don't hear you. Hello, I can hear you. Oh, I hear you now. Now we can hear you. Yeah.

I'm still muted. Oh. That is weird. Do you not hear us? Okay, because it's showing that it lights up and saying I was talking, so who knows? Yeah, I don't know. You can hear us now, right? Yeah, I'm not.

Oh, no, you're not hearing us now. We hear you now. I cannot hear you guys for whatever reason. Hold on, just a second. It's a technical conundrum that we're dealing with. Hold on, hold on. All right, we're waiting, we're waiting. I know, it is.

We're saying things of people that can't hear us. I mean, you know, whatever. It's the internet. No, I still can't hear you guys. still can't hear us. All right. So he sees our rings of ringage, but he doesn't hear our rings of speakage. This is dumb. Yeah, it is dumb. And what's weird is we could let him just talk, but he isn't, I don't know how to do that. You just have to assume we're not replying to anything. I don't know. There's about a 10 second delay. Oh, oh, you are hearing us, but just with a big

delay. Oh, wow. Oh, that could be, that's some whole other problem. I think you're answering these thing. Yeah, I'm hearing you through YouTube. I'm not hearing of whatever reason. I know what it is. I know what it is. Hold on, hold on. All right.

You know what it is? It's, yeah. Let's see. Oh. Hello? It's loopback. Oh,

loop back. Turn that shit off. Although I like loopback. I don't think it's shit. I like that. I'm using it now. No, it needs to be turned on, I think.

Oh, you have to turn it on. Okay. He's responding to my seven-second YouTube. This was horrible. Sorry. Sorry, guys. It happens to everybody and it's totally fine.

And you'll hear this in about 18 seconds. Yeah. Yeah. Look, you're lagmaster Jones today and it's fine. You'll hear us when you hear us and we'll talk when we talk and it'll all work out in the end. It's all good. Yeah.

It's all good. Yeah. We'll just keep saying things like that until. No, it probably won't. That's how my week is gone. So while I'm fudcing with this. yes scott johnson guess what i still can't hear you but uh so this past week was the san diego comic con yeah and guess where i was at where were you

i was i was in wisconsin for a wedding my niece's wedding oh that's awesome so you were in wisconsin for a wedding and uh yeah the wedding happened and you had to miss all your nerd comic stuff i don't know how you know how you deal with that that that has happened. I will tell you that for sure. Joining us now, Olivia Pajoli from calling from Texer. It does

have like a news delay. Somebody's in a war zone. I have no idea why this is not working. That's very odd. All right, I'll tell you what, you'll hear this in a second, but here's a good idea. Tell us about the big reveal and anything else you think is cool about Comic-Con so far. Okay. And then we can just, we can move.

Here's the deal. Yeah. Okay. Or all of the big reveal stuff. Yeah. I kept going. I'm going to say that. There was.

Sorry, I was trying to try one more thing. Still not going to work. This is stupid. Okay. So, Captain America 4. Harrison Ford shows up as the Red Hulk. They announced that Esposito is going to be sidewinder. That's your big announcements there.

Yeah, yeah. Thunderbolts, first footage shown there. What's his name? David Harbaugh shows up as Crimson, or is a Red Guardian. Red Guardian. And then has a big laugh about that. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Everyone has fun.

They didn't answer why there was an asterisk next to the Thunderbolt star. So there you go. They had the Fantastic Four show up. And they said, hey, they got to go fly back to UK to do some movies. but hey this is a retro 1960s version and Galactus is part of this story Oh, I didn't see that part Okay interesting

All right Yeah so there's a couple of things with that Brian that are really interesting They first teased it during the big drone show Oh yeah I saw that They had a big Fantastic Four logo show up And then they had Galactus rise up from the background

Did he say I'm gonna eat your planet, surfer, to me, that kind of stuff. No, because this is a drone show, so it just went. Okay, well, that's exciting. We already knew the voice of Galaxus, right? Oh, yeah, that's right. Oh, the guy from Game of Thrones and the witch and the red, the green knight, and that guy. I get to give his name.

Yeah. That guy. He's great. Garth, not Garth. That's Garth, that's Garth, he's a comic artist. Yeah, that guy. Yeah, that guy is a good mark. Here's the thing.

Brian, I know you didn't see Deadpool and Wolverine. I did not. I also didn't see Deadpool and Wolverine. And for everybody else who didn't see Deadpool and Wolverine and don't want to be spoiled, certainly stay away from the internet where they showed Deadpool and Wolverine at the convention in Hall H. And then they brought out all the secret guest stars, and that is out online. So if people don't get spoiled, don't. that warning. Wow. Yeah. Didn't they have a special showing too? They got to see

they got to see the movie. Yeah, you definitely don't want to because they're major spoils. I mean, I would consider these major spoilers for the fun of the movie. Right, right. Now he'll answer that as a thing. I just asked, let's see if this comes. Here we go. This is like internet. Probably the final thing and the biggest thing. Yeah. Final thing and the biggest thing. There's two new Avengers movies coming out. Avenger's Secret Wars, which should get people interested in the action figures from the 1980s. Yep.

Then the other one is the Avengers Doom's Day. Yeah. Oh, and the Russo brothers, I'll just sneak this in while we have some. Robert Downey Jr. Go ahead. As Doom Day.

Dr. Doom. Sorry. No, you're fine. So he comes out and he goes, he pulls off his mask and he goes, hey, look at me. I'm not Tony Stark again. and I'm freaking Dr. Doom. Yeah, exactly.

So, Brian, didn't you have a theory about this or something? Do you want to share? No, no. Hold on there, Scott. Hold on there, Scott. He takes off his mask and he doesn't say, I'm not Tony Stark. Yeah, no. He's just Dr. Doom.

He says, new mask, same task. And then he puts on his Iron Man sunglasses. Oh, shit. Right. Right. So wait a minute. Does that mean... That's part of my theory is that he's going to be, you know,

they've got the whole TVA thing and the variants. I'm thinking that this Tony Stark is a variant that... Yep, you're totally right, Brian. I don't know which part he's saying. And here's the other thing. So many people are so mixed on this. I'm very interested to see what you guys think about this because there's so many people that are like,

oh, why do you have to cast Robert Downey Jr. as Doomsday and Iron Man. And then at the same time, they're just like, oh, man, when they cast Chris Evans as Captain America and Johnny Storm, that was brilliant, by the way, not a spoiler for Deadpool plus Wolverine. So I want to know what you guys think about this. I'm actually on board, and I want to see how they do it. I think if anybody can pull it off, it's the Rousseau's.

I feel like they made the four of my favorite, not all of them. I mean, between them and a gun made, the Russo's and Gunn made all my favorite Marvel movies, right? Winter Soldier, Civil War and the two Avengers End Game and Infinity War and then of course

Gun with all of the Guardians of the Galaxy stuff that right there hands down my favorite set of directors so having them back involved great totally on board with this if he's a variant it's kind of like how we thought we were getting the Mandarin in Iron Man

too but then it just turned out to be Trevor Or three, was it? I think it was three, but yeah. Or three, it might have been, yeah, you're right. I think he was three. And I'm all right with that. I'm all right with Dr. Doom, this iteration of Dr. Doom, not being technically Victor von Doom and maybe being Tony Stark, who this one ended up in Latvaria and...

It's interesting. It's interesting of that because we do have a fantastic four movie that's coming out first. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. But that's fun. Here's a thought. If that takes place. in the 60s.

They did say that Doom was going to be part of the two Avengers movies, but they didn't say anything about Fantastic Four. Right, right, right. Right, well, Doom, and that's fine. If Doom, if Fantastic Four is dealing with Galactus, because it's the 60s, chances are, our Tony Stark hasn't been born yet and can't be Dr. Doom in current time, so, or in the 60s, I mean. Brian, do you think they bring him, they somehow, like at the end, kind of Captain America

style, something happens, time rift or whatever, and they're brought to the future, now the FF4 part of the main timeline, MCU, all that stuff? Yeah, because that happened in the comics, too. The Fantastic Four, kind of during... They did say during the presentation that the Fantastic Four will be part of Secret Wars and Doomfaker. Oh, wow. Okay.

But in the comics, they had the Fantastic Four, had been gone for a while, and they just came back a few years ago and Reed Richards with a beard now and a little bit darker tone to the team. So I think they're going to probably lean on that that kind of lore to get them into current times nice well it looked everything they showed at this event looked like um i don't know they it was less about hey here's

15 years in the future it was more like here are the next four movies and we're going to focus on that you know yes a little less like oh we don't know where it's all going but isn't exciting that we're going to have one of these names and it's like no yeah just give us is it seven through 12 and we're totally locking into these dates and nothing could possibly change them. Yeah, I kind of like that. I'm surprised that it's not a lot of TV mentioned stuff, right?

Like, we didn't get, didn't seem like we get... That's all from one panel. Yeah. I'm not sure where that, which answer to which question that was. Yeah, they didn't talk about TV stuff at all. It was all the movies. Yeah. Like we're talking about the magic eight ball. I like that we had a little Stephen,

you roll them around, the little thing rises to the top. I'll point to yes. I love it. I love it. Well, this is all good stuff. We will, of course, dig further as we get more details. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We'll do all of that.

Stephen, you're going to hear this after the fact, but we think you're amazing. Even on lag, you're one of our favorite people. Everybody go to major spoilers.com and enjoy all the content there. They have an amazing network and amazing stuff. Thank you, Stephen. All right. He's gone. All right.

It's like you're going in from the quantum verse or whatever. That was actually kind of amazing. He did pretty, I have to say. He did pretty well. Yeah. You know, we tend to just rapid fire go really fast here. So it's more apparent when we stop and we wait for an answer from him. But if we slowed down, he probably would have answered the thing we said at the beginning of what we were asking about the time that we finished asking it.

Yeah, exactly right. And this is also another piece of proof that time travel doesn't exist because he would, go back in time and fix his audio issues or I would go back in time and edit it or something. But because none of that happened, you guys heard it? That means no time travel. Sorry. A hundred percent best use of the technology of time travel

would have been to fix that. Yeah, real bummer. All right, let's move on. We're about done, but a quick note that the Monday show will air tonight, 4 p.m. Mountain Time. And another quick note, for those who are not in our live chat, but sometimes are. We're currently dancing around what we're going to do long

term for where the live stream will be mostly like the restream slash multi stream thing did not work out the way I'd hoped is very fishy and didn't work great. As a result, we're trying to settle on all right, are we every day on Twitch? Are we every day on YouTube? Do we do just game stuff on Twitch? Do I do all the podcasts on YouTube? Like there's kind of a live stream question floating around. We're going to get more feedback from everybody, see what everybody wants to do, try to try to come up with whatever is best for most. It's all it's always. can do but uh anyway just letting you know so if you're a little bit confused about that right now anyway youtube will be all the podcasts go live if that changes we'll let you know if you go to uh frogpans

com or sorry frogpans dot tv it'll take you straight there and you'll see all the scheduled shows that sort of thing why is my phone ringing hold on okay not important um and that's it that's the show we're done frogpans dot com slash tms is our website i feel like i'm caught in a time loop after Stephen. I feel like I'm you know what I'm saying? I should still be waiting for something. It's weird. I don't know. My brain's all farted up now. Anyway, that is it for us. Brian, do you want to play a song to have us get out of here with?

How about a request? This one's going out to Jim Nash, aka furry Viking. Awesome. He says, hello scrub and bubbles. Jim, a.k. Ferry Viking when I can get in the chat. It's time for my annual birthday request. I'm a little close to the wire, so if you can't get this in in time, I completely understand. Well, you know, I actually would have, and I'd not gotten COVID. This is a big one for me, and I'm struggling with it a little bit. On the 25th of July, I turned the very ripe old age of 50. At 40, I made a request right as I was leaving my job,

my hometown, and going back to college. Now I'm at 50. I'm back in my hometown. New job that I really like and getting ready to go back to college again for my MBA. None of this. would be possible, if not for the love and support of my fabulous wife, Heather. Well, since I've always been a nine-inch nails fan, I'm requesting a cover of, we're in this together for Heather, and I, as we continue, or for Heather and I, as we continue on this adventure as a team. I know you guys get this all the time, but for real, thank you for the content. This is easily the best value for my money out of all of my Patreon subs.

Oh, look at that Patreon commercial. As someone that's really anxious about the world out there, having TMS in the morning is like a hug from a good friend just makes you feel like just maybe things are going to be okay have a stellar day lads love the show though free Viking awesome he gets one of these though sorry you're 50 happy birthday but I having him here 10 years and doing like two different uh things 10 years apart is kind of awesome that's rad it's so so love having you here for a Viking and and you'll always get a hug from us. And if that's a side hug,

whatever you prefer. Front hug, side hug, but no back hugs. Let's get to your request. Now, we kind of already played Ali Gertz on an amazing nine-inch-nails stuff from her album last week. So we're going to do something different, but it's still nine-inch nails and it's still a cover

of the song you want. We're in this together. This is from the Atomica project from an album called The Non-Afare from 2010. Here's a cover of, we're this together. That's great. Thank you everybody. We'll see you tomorrow for a brand new Tuesday episode of the morning stream. I've become impossible holding on to when

I've become impossible holding on to when when everything seemed mad more not too of us all used As it flows, down the path we have jobs. You and me, we're in this together now. None of them can stop us now.

We will make it through somehow. You and me if the world should break until Until the very end of you Until the very end of you Awake to the sound Does they peel apart the skin Try to get the fingers in They gotta kill what we've found

They gotta hate what they fear They gotta make it go away They gotta make it disappear The Father I fall I'm beside you As lost as I get up Find you The deeper the wound I'm inside you

Forever and ever I'm a part of you and me We're in this together now None of them can stop us now We will make it through somehow You and me Until the very end of me Until the very end of you

All the world is gone Can we have to haul Oh Oh You and me, we're in this together now. None of them can stop us now. We will make it through somehow. You and me, if the world should break into,

Until the very end of me Until the very end of you Hey Scott, hey, bye, this is Sipi from Virginia. Hey, uh, episode 2672. 72, you guys had a question about Uber and Lyft and people canceling mid-rides. I'm actually on my way home from driving Lyft and Uber. I've sent you guys some other messages. But anyway, I've had several occasions where people have canceled mid-rides.

Their logic is that if they cancel, they don't have to pay for it, and they figure you're going to take them the rest of the way, even though you get paid up to the point that they cancel. It's kind of a scam thing that they try to do to get out of paying the full price of the ride. And on several occasions, I've actually had to let people know when they cancel, hey, you know what, your ride is over. I can take you as far as this other safe point, like a gas station or a grocery store or something like that. And I have to tell them, hey, your ride is over. You need to get out of my car.

and I haven't yet had to call the police, but the advice if they will not get out of the car is to just simply call the police and have them come get you out of your car because they've ended their ride. Anyway, just a little Lyft Uber thing that I've had experience with it. Luckily, Brian, according to what you said on the show,

you haven't had to deal with yet. Hopefully you never do, and catch you guys on the show. Thanks. Okay, Scott. On the show, Joe Danger's Sky, you and Brian were talking briefly about that, Jane, a Proudmore pendant that I sent you. And the details on that, I don't think anybody who would care. It's just that it is indeed made out of pewter, but there are a number of different pewter alloys. And so that particular alloy is one I do for jewelry casting. So it is sandcasted as some were surmising. And the mixture is pewter with a little bit bit of silver in it, which helps to add to the shine when it's buffed out really nicely. I don't know that you want to buff out again, it's probably more dependent because it's really supposed to be kind of battered up and doled out from use, right? You know, that's kind of the way it ought to look if it's on a costume.

Brian mentioned about silicone casting for pewter. It is possible. You just have to do it very carefully because a silicone mold can usually take up to about 400 degrees and tutor if you can get it melted at around 350 to 370 so you have to do a few casts and then stop and a few casts in the stop you know they'll look the mold cool but sand casting is a great way to do it and the way I made that pendant on the anchor was simply to make it out of clay and then I pressed it into sand and then made a few copies from it that way and certainly I wouldn't do that partake to their size out of a silicone mold.

You want that for smaller things only because of how much computer you have to pour in there and that heat will really melt the mold if it's left in there too long. It just gets really bad. So anyway, sandcasting, yes, Brian, if you wanted to, could absolutely print smaller things and sandcast computer just fine. That would be no problem at all. And you can even sandcast in bronze if you have a furnace hot enough to do the bronze, off of something you pressed into the sand from a 3D print.

No problem. I've done that before. It's actually a lot of fun. All right, thanks a lot. Love the show. Hey, Scott and Brian. This is Hunter calling from Edmonton, Alberta. I was listening to one of the more recent episodes.

Currently, I'm on a road trip from Edmonton, Alberta, all the way to Fort Erie, Ontario, riding by motorcycle. Fastest ways to cut through the northern states. So I'm riding through North Dakota, never been here before. Listening to the episode, and sure enough, I hear a message from another caller saying something about rugby North Dakota. Where do you think I am when I heard that message? What are the chances of that happening? Anyway, love the show, though.

See ya. This show is part of the Frog Pants Network. Yes. Get more at frogpants.com.
