The morning stream.
This car smells weird.
Hello, everybody. Welcome to TMS.
It is the morning stream.
For October 29th, 2025, we are mere days, two days from All Hallows Eve.
It's going to be excited.
We're doing play date.
We're doing, right?
Yeah, the new trivia murder party.
Now, did it, I heard that it got delayed.
Is it still happening?
It got delayed to 2026.
Oh, really?
Like, way delayed.
Well, maybe it may still be early in the year because it's a whole pack, not just the one.
So my guess is probably January, February or something.
But that's not Halloween.
The whole pack got delayed?
Yeah, whole thing.
Son of, come on.
I know.
You know what I would have done.
You don't know deadlines.
I would.
They should be called.
Jacklines or something.
Yeah.
I would, I'll tell you what I'd do, Brian.
I would happily pay just for the, for murder party three on its own piecemeal in that launcher thing they put out.
Give it to me in a little, just give me the one.
And we just, it's the beta and we'll test it for you.
Yeah, it's Halloween for shit's sakes.
Even if it's got problems, we won't, we won't complain.
We'll just report the bug and say, oh, the guys said this, but really the answer was wrong.
You know, whatever it is, we're happy to do it.
I'm so sad.
We'll test it, Cookie.
Come on, Cookie.
I was one of your beta testers early on.
I have all these, like, handwritten, you don't know jackdiscs from back in the day, from, oh, God, who were they at the time?
There was, it was a...
Back in the 90s, right?
It was like Sierra or somebody was publishing them.
I don't know who was.
Something.
And back then, you played on a keyboard, and one person had the left shift key.
One person had the right shift key, and the middle person had the space bar.
And it was like, blah, la, la.
There was no internet way to play.
or any of that. It was like this old school
keyboard thing and it was great. I mean, obviously
it made its mark and grew into something, but
little known fact.
Brian shaves his head
because of his fandom of You Don't
Know Jack. Look at the timeline, right?
You don't know Jack came out? Shaved my head the same year.
That's right. Coincidence? I think not.
Yeah, so come on, guys. In your Chicago
offices, I even know where they work.
We know where you are.
That's right. Yesterday, by the way, I was wearing
So I had my blue hoodie on, right?
My MS-150 hoodie.
Underneath it, I had my Tempest shirt.
And it was getting hot down here in the basement.
I took off my Tempest shirt.
And all of a sudden, I wasn't sure if I was AI or not.
That's, you know why, everybody.
Here's the thing.
When you scan, whatever you scan, it's part of you until you change it.
That's right.
Have you changed it then?
So you've changed it.
I haven't changed it.
It's still the Tempest shirt.
Okay.
I love it. I love it because whenever I got one yesterday of us dancing on stage. I don't know what the song was.
And it was, you and me, you and your Tempish shirt, me and my nondescript gray thing.
Oh, yeah. This is without the hat. The Hurls of the Storm hoodie, isn't it?
I don't remember what I'm wearing. Actually, that was my original one. I've redone it since. Oh, you've redone it? Okay. I haven't redone mine.
Yeah, which is why this office now shows up in most of my co-labs.
Oh, gotcha. Okay. I figured it out. I thought I didn't film that in my bathroom. I must have when I first did it.
yeah you probably did that was weird but um it's an interesting thought maybe i you know maybe i um do a
new one with this background because i was like oh they want a clean background well i guess i'll
kind of tip it up so that the the drop ceiling is my background yep um but obviously included
the the blue LED light strip i'm thinking i'm thinking like what would it be what would happen
if it's going to give you your light strip and your office elements and my office elements
would it also work if there were people or dogs or cats or other stuff
milling around in your background when you took it?
So every video you take has got...
What if I did it while I was holding an aura?
Yeah.
Did my test thing.
Yeah.
Hold her up behind a high.
Oh my God, that's so worth trying.
Like not in front of your face, but just low there.
It would be enough to catch it.
Like cuddling it like this.
And yeah.
Yeah.
I think you should.
I might try something weird like that.
That might be pretty freaking funny.
I mean, it's Halloween week.
We may as well let it all rip, you know?
For sure.
Yeah.
A couple things.
things. Tom will not be here today. He is at a funeral family thing. Uh-huh. Okay. A lot of that
going on lately. I don't know what's going on. Uh, 2025 can honestly suck a log for real,
real bad, dumb year. Uh, however, uh, we have a call now going on today and we're going to do it
with the voicecast.com app slash TMS where we get them in real time live. They'll just start
populating. Um, and we can play them and do all that. So that's stuff we're going to do a little bit
So you guys listening right now in the chat.
Get us your voice casts and once again that address is that.
Voicecast.
Dot app slash TMS.
There it is.
There it is again, folks.
Okay.
And even if you forget or you just show up right around then, it will take them in real time.
Remember last week we tested it and we had errors and like we're getting dupes and all that.
That's all fixed.
So today's like a data.
It's a new beta today.
We're trying a new version.
So look forward to that.
Excellent.
I had something happened to me yesterday.
that I must share, went to pick up one of the dogs at the groomers.
In this particular case, we usually have a groomer that we use.
It's like a private indie groomer person that has like stuff set up at their house
and everything.
They do a really good job and they're reasonably priced and all that.
But we had in a bit of a pinch, we had to get Boomer in.
And so we took Boomer to PetSmart because they have a built-in groomer deal in the PetSmart there.
Usually in the front on the side.
Yeah.
As you're buying your dog food, you can go by there and see a bunch of dogs all going.
Yeah, wishing they were dead.
Yeah.
And hating every second of their lives.
With clippers going on next one.
So I'm in there and you can do that thing where you can be in the store, like you said,
and view it through the window almost like watching a restaurant make food, kind of.
Sure.
But also the way you get in there, it's a separate entrance at the entrance of the main store that you cut to the left and go in.
Okay.
And he talked to the lady and you get it all set up and do the stuff.
All fine.
Whatever.
We went to go pick her up.
this is after her appointment.
I've got a leash.
I'm ready to go.
And there's this dude in there.
I can only describe him as,
do you remember in Mind Hunter,
the one serial killer actor guy
that was like ginormous?
He was like,
I don't know.
I don't know how to describe him.
Big, huge guy, though.
Heavy set dude, yes.
If he was next to you,
you'd feel like he's like seven foot tall
and 350 pounds.
And they were interviewing him in jail.
Right.
I guess they were interviewing all of them in prison,
but whatever.
Yeah,
they were trying to figure.
out he they were studying his stuff so that they could figure out the b y b y k m tk the b tk b tk it sounds
like a kid the billy the kid killer oh there you go that's actually an easy way to remember it i like
that um it sounds like a k-pop band though it does btk btk anyway so we're so he's built like him
six foot something taller than me massive person and his butt is about equal to my chest it feels like
okay and he's got this big furry dog that looks pretty exotic i'm not sure what breed it was but
it's clearly not some mud it was like a fancy very hairy almost almost like siberian husky but
different i don't even know how to explain it so i'm not even sure what breed it was but it's obviously
this beautiful dog and he was being very careful with it and then he's just getting ready to leave
and he's kind of been over in front of me and he's hooking the dog up and while he's been over in front
of me. Well, I'll give you a familiar sound here from the show. He farts. Oh, no. He farts. And it's a
rumbler. It's like a real, uh, yeah. It's like a real morning thunder kind of vibe. And I,
he didn't say anything. He didn't go, oh, excuse me or anything like that. I didn't say anything
because this is an awkward social situation. This is a situation where he needs to, like,
you're not going to say, excuse you or. Yeah. Pardon me. Yeah. So I just held my breath. Yeah.
looked forward, tried to close my mind a little, you know, get some self-reflection going and
walked forward to a part of the place I don't think I'm even allowed to go to. It's like behind the
place. These are, these are extenuating circumstances, though. That's what I'm saying. I feel like
I was, I think I was justified. Yeah, justified. Absolutely. Yeah. It was great, though.
I mean, it was one of those moments where it was just like, really? I had the impression,
and this may be purely in my own imagination.
I had the impression he didn't even feel it.
Really?
Like he didn't react, jerk, tighten, nothing.
I don't know.
I feel like...
Never made a face, never nothing.
What do you think?
He's just really good at...
I can't imagine not knowing you're doing that
because it's not the weight on the outside.
It's coming from the inside.
I mean, it's, you know, you've got, you've got nerves, nerve endings down there, you know.
It seems like you'd feel it even more because you've got, you've got a, I don't know.
He works in a situation.
He's on his own for much of the day.
He's either like a bus driver who's got kind of that area up to himself in the front or he works from home or something where he just lets it fly and he's gotten so used to not reacting when he lets one fly that he that he forgets that we live in a society here.
And that, you know, he's got to say something.
I fully expect maybe even desire my, if I make it to my 80s, I'm never going to care.
Just literally, oh, I don't care.
This came up yesterday, too.
There was something you're like, you know, I can't wait until, oh, it was a road rage incident with the guy with the chainsaw.
Oh, yeah.
But you were on the other side of like, instead of it being, I just, you know, get my chainsaw, not give a crap.
Yeah, that's what I understand.
This 68-year-old guy that did that, I'm thinking, okay, if that was a,
me where what is my life like where i where i have that much rage that much like concentrated rage
we had to like get in the car and chase the lady down and find her and all the things that he did
that's just seems insane to me that anybody would do that and i think i would just go me
what are you going to do yeah this is like any trip to the mall anywhere like yesterday we had
a lady speeding when we were going to get the dog and we were going to kim and i were going
to grab a quick dinner and stuff this car behind us just
we're stopped waiting for a light
and this car is barreling behind us
coming so fast and Kim Kim is driving
she actually starts to go oh shit
starts to swear because she thought we were going to get hit
totally and it's the new car and everything
so we're all freaking out and then instead
last second this woman
not that it matters Jim it doesn't matter
but she was a woman
she goes and turns into the lane
that is the turning lane
and I think that was always her plan
yeah yeah she just wanted to
Oh, let's watch world burn.
Let me see if I can make these folks sweat a little bit.
Yeah, what a chaos monster.
What are you doing?
It probably wasn't any reason for her to wait as long as she did to get in that other lane.
There's no other cars or anything.
No, she had it to herself.
And if anything, her biggest problem was the reckless speed at which she was heading toward it.
If she was creeping up and then turned in, fine.
But she was like, br-ha-ha-and-honestly, that was the moment where I went,
all right, first major accident in a long time.
Let's go ahead and embrace for this.
in the back seat hopefully it's okay always uh you know it's it's uh breaking in that new car christening
the new car with a fresh dent gosh dang it dude we have to drive it to Vegas in November and
hoping that we don't get any chips or weird snow or anything you know that that that actually
that's that's when you can kind of breathe the cyber relief when you get that first little chip
on the windshield from from the sand they put down on the ground for the ice and snow it's like
all right well now yeah now that now you know I don't have to hold on to my
windshield's virginity for it's precious anymore yeah my windshield's virginity has been uh violated
although you hope it stays small and you can get it fixed and what i what i don't want is one of those
the cracks that spread yeah my sister's tesla i think that windshield cost them like five grand to
replace oh geez yeah there's a lot not insurance insurance not covering something not that well it does
it does for i don't know what i don't know what the deal was but it ended up being more something
more than that, and they had to pay five grand of it.
Oh, gosh.
Whether that's like a deductible or something else, I don't know.
But the reason those are so expensive is there's a bunch of electronics in them, first
of all.
And second of all, they go way, way up here to the back behind your head, those windows end on
the Tesla Model 3s.
That's right.
That's why they're expensive.
Yeah, that makes sense.
This is a whole part of the car, basically.
It would be like a ridiculous looking convertible without it.
right so anyway
did you imagine getting a crack
that then starts to go right up
oh my gosh
that's kind of what happened to hers
that's probably well yeah
and I told her the day I saw the chip
we were driving to my mom's
I said Misha you gotta get that
get that filled I can get it filled
I said yeah you absolutely can
it only cost you less than 100 bucks
and probably your insurance
blah blah blah she goes oh yeah I probably should do that
and then she waited and waited
and then one day it went
it just started as soon as it got cold
or hot or whatever in that windshield
start expanding or contracting.
Yeah, I think the rain did it.
It's what happens.
Yeah.
Well, anyway, what did you get up to yesterday?
Well, you, so you had your interaction with somebody where nothing was said.
I had my interaction where I just shouldn't have gotten involved.
You know, no good deed goes unpunished kind of thing.
So a few blocks from our house is a privately owned mail place, a mail post office, USPS place,
that is kind of an annex, like an,
officially licensed annex of the of the post office but it's its own like store they sell
candy and and gifts and things like that but they're they're big crux the center of the store
is this line that goes up to a counter where you do your your post office stuff and um i had some
rock puzzles monthly to send out i had some um etsy uh khyber crystal stands to send out so i went
there and and some of my stuff was pre metered
I printed out the labels at home, did the postage thing when Dissia, and then took it up there.
There's a little stand where you can put the pre-postage stuff.
Right.
So I pull into the parking lot, start walking up, and I see a woman coming next to me, carrying two huge boxes.
Like, her hands are full, and there's no way she's got a hand free to get the door.
So I ran up and said, let me get the door for you.
She's like, oh, my God, good time.
I'm like, yeah, no problem.
Hold the door open for him.
She's like, yeah, I don't know.
know, do I take these up to the counter or do I need to take them to a different place?
And I'm like, oh, well, are they already pre-postage?
Like, are you already, they're already paid for?
Yeah.
She's like, yeah, I did all that online.
I'm like, oh, yeah, no problem.
Come with me.
And so I walk over to the area where I'm putting my Khyber crystal boxes and say, yeah,
just leave them right here and you're all good.
And I look over and I see that they've got postage labels on them.
Sure.
All good so far, this sounds like.
All good so far.
Sure.
But I've still got my Rock Puzzles Monthly packets to send out.
So I go to the front counter and she's weighing them and saying, oh, yeah, yeah, it's an X amount to send each of these.
I'm like, great, I'll pay for the postage.
And while she's helping me, the other woman who works there is going over to the place where the prepaid packages are going.
And she says, oh, who left these big boxes?
And I said, oh, it was a woman that came in right around the time I did.
And she's like, oh, yeah, these are for UPS.
Oh, shit.
So, yeah, they're paid for, but these are UPS packages, and she's, you know, she's long
yard.
Yeah, they can't do anything with them there because it's a UPS place only.
The UPS places can sometimes take your UPS stuff, but not the other way around.
Not the other way around, exactly.
So I'm like, shoot, if I would have said, if I would have just held the door open for her
and not gotten involved, she would have gone to the counter, she would have gotten them to
the ladies, and they would have said, oh, no, these are UPS.
she would have left with them, no problem.
But because I got involved.
Is there any identifying information that you can like?
Yeah, they said, do you know what she looked like?
I said, oh, yeah, she was really pretty brunette with a white top.
Holy shit.
And they're like, the one lady kind of runs out to the parking lot to see if she can get her.
And she's long gone.
Oh, my gosh.
That lady thinks she's done.
She's not done.
Oh, what did you end up doing?
I mean, I didn't do anything.
I left them there.
I mean, can't do anything, right?
You're done.
Exactly.
here's me wiping my hands
and the whole situation
but
I like Jeannie says
can Brian take them to UPS
since they're prepaid?
I mean I could
Sure but at some point
At some point
This is not your burden
To bear
It's not this is
This is clearly a lady
Who did not look at
Who the carrier
You know when she
These are Amazon packages
Presumably that she's returning
One of them was in a big Amazon box
Yeah
And, um, she should know by looking at the sign that says U.S. Postal Service that, uh, that, that, that's not UPS. And, um, even when you get those things from Amazon that say, print out this label, a fix it to your box, blah, blah, blah. It says, click this button to find the nearest UPS drop off location. Yeah. Yeah. She didn't do that.
She didn't do it. No. No. And they were, they were Amazon returns, you said there. I think one of, one of them definitely was. I don't know.
about the other one one was in an amazon box the other one was in a was in a
nondescript box that who knows could have been amazon just slapping a label on
something embarrassing and leaving it on your front porch going to say that just this should be
clear it should be clear it should be clear and if the ups store was closer and i wasn't getting
you know also picking up dinner for tina on the on the same trip i might have done it i might
have said you know what i'll go over to the ups store but i had pre-ordered some kudoba tina was
feeling sick last night.
So I'm like,
oh, I'll make dinner.
And by make dinner,
I'll place an order with Qdob and pick it up
when I go to the post office.
Yeah.
Wow, man.
What a detour.
Yeah.
So I think you did all you could do,
honestly.
I did all I could do.
Yeah.
I mean,
there's more you,
is there possibility you could have done more?
Yes.
There's more.
But at some point,
could have done.
She'll never,
here's a problem with this.
No one learned a lesson,
though.
Yes.
Brian's a nice guy.
Let's say he took it all the way
down the UPS door and dumped it off.
Great. That's an awesome
Samaritan thing. You did it. Well done.
This lady will just, she'll just go on thinking
she got it all taken care of. Right.
Right. And the next time, the next time
she has a UPS return, she'll bring it back
to the same place. She might not
even, she probably might just
put it back in the same spot and never
know that she's continually doing the
wrong thing. Or know that, or have a guy
who opens the door and helps her with her stuff again
and can even do anything to
help. You know what I mean? Like, right.
She needs to learn the, I don't care who it is, they need to learn the lesson.
She may never, there's like, she is now set on a, I put the label on, I take it to this place,
I put it on this table, and I walk out without talking to anybody.
She now has that as the process.
And unless somebody sees it as she's doing and says, oh, ma'am, no, these are UPS, at which point she'll say, but I always leave them here.
Yeah, yeah.
She'll say, don't you remember that guy that helped me that one time?
Yeah, ripen that ball yet.
Do you remember what he looks like?
Yeah, he's real ugly, bald, fat.
He had a bunch of envelopes with him.
It looked like he had, you know, his own shit to worry about instead of mine.
That's an amazing story.
Holy crap.
Well, I hope she got her stuff at the very least.
I hope so.
At least, I'm sure one of those ladies probably drives down 64th in the direction of the UPS store.
Parks, leaves the car running, tosses him in the door, leaves.
Yeah, that's all you got to do.
And that's more their thing than your thing.
exactly exactly so i look at it uh well all right excellent work guys it's time for us to have some fun
we're gonna play a game yeah and here's how we do it you know play a little music and we welcome
this chucklehead here it's brian dunaway joining us hello brian oh hi scott and brian my chuckleheadedness
is here and i just like to point out uh that lady sounds like she has pretty people problems
she's been
through life
living on the kindness of people
who think they can hook up with her
yes
and did she
did I break that trend
I'd like to think I did
I think you did
I think there was a fork in the road
us ugly people you know
we know what reality is
we've experienced it every day
but Brian you really were
we have to pay attention to things
you were you were a specific intersection
in her life
and she had a choice to make at that intersection.
Correct.
And she could either go down the one-way street, the opposite direction, which she did.
Yeah. Yeah.
Or not. And so here we are. This is fine.
But to be fair, I told her, I told her the wrong way to go.
Well, you did, but you assume she knew where the hell she was.
Yes.
Right. She shouldn't, she shouldn't have even been on that road in the first place that have the fork.
She should have been on a completely different road entirely.
Let's be honest, though. UPS, USPS, somebody needs to change.
change their name. All right? You both
do the same thing, essentially.
You want to need to make some
room. One of them's been here forever.
I feel like that's a, that's a decent point,
you know? Yeah, I like
Yeah, I like it. Are you, are you, you know anybody's
dyslexic? Uh, yes, I do. I know
there's an extra character in there, but still
it's pretty confusing. Yeah, no. My dad's dyslexic
or was, he had, uh, had a real hard
time with it. Um, I don't know.
Uh, DQ, QVC.
A lot of the same letters. Um,
The two different things.
Two totally different things.
Yeah.
If QVC also sold ice cream with a drive-thru, then maybe you have a point.
They might.
You don't know.
You don't know that you can't get ice cream on QVC.
For all we know, she didn't know the difference between Amazon and Amadong, which is a very different website.
I know.
I was sitting there the whole time racking my brains on two things that were close that I could use.
Who Ons?
It's hard.
It's hard.
You can get Amadongs on Amazon.
I understand.
Yeah, you can.
Well, it's good to be here.
I made a Thanos fist to hold all your amadons.
That's right.
Oh, my God.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Says the guy who goes to the post office every single day of his life.
All right, whatever.
Let's move forward.
Sure, why not?
Listen to UPS, man.
We're going to see what Brown can do for us.
Let's have this game.
Brian, you want to explain this game?
Who's going to win the what and all that shit that we do?
Sure.
It's time to play the tadpooly feud.
I've surveyed the tadpull on so nerdy topics.
And Scott and Brangene have to predict the end.
answer they gave us. It is their job to see how many of those answers they can guess.
The player with the most points after the game will win a prize for their contestant.
And contestants will be pulled from our supporters on Patreon at patreon.com slash
TMS. Become one today and get free stuff all the damn time.
Scott, you're playing for Justice Beaver.
Yeah, Justice Beaver.
I watch that Taylor Sheridan show all the time. And it is so good.
It's his best, really, since Landman. It's really good.
Brian, you're playing for Andrea Hope.
Oh, well, there is hope then.
Excellent.
That's right.
We're playing for Hope and Beaver.
It's a great, worst law firm ever.
All right.
All right.
Put your hands on your buzzers and get ready to answer this.
We asked 472 Tad Poolers.
What is the worst food connected?
Brian.
Hot dogs.
It doesn't matter what is connected to.
It's hot dogs.
That's your hot dogs.
My back to work.
Oh, my gosh.
Sorry.
Dang it.
Scott, I'll repeat the whole question for you.
What is the worst food connected to an annual holiday?
Oh.
Oh, come on, 4th of July.
Yeah, that's a hot dog.
I will tell you, hot dogs were on the list, but they were low.
It was, uh, uh, where is hot dogs?
Uh, yeah, it's low.
It's tied for 31st place.
Uh, Christmas fruit cake.
Are you kidding me?
cake. Show me. Christmas fruit cake.
Look at that. Fruit cake, or as they call it in the UK, Christmas cake.
Christmas cake.
Christmas cake. Nice and dried fruits. And you cook it for a long time until it's solid.
Yeah. And they like it. And we do not. Yeah. All right. Well, that feels good. Let's see.
What's the worst thing around Thanksgiving? Probably.
Oh. Can't. Cranberry sauce.
from a can maybe oh sure the canned uh cranberry sauce so you slurp it out of the can right into a
tray yeah see i personally i kind of like it show me cranberry sauce in a can no number two answer on
the board and you can also see by the way yes food yeah when you see number one and number two
148 people said fruit cake or christmas cake number two was 40 people said cranberry
sauce in a can a difference of 108 people more hate fruit cake yeah i'm
I would like to ask each one of those people,
is it just cranberry in general or are you like,
I will tell you that I did.
So a majority of the people said canned cranberry sauce
or canberry sauce that's shaped like a can,
et cetera.
But there were maybe 10 people-ish that just said cranberry sauce
and I lumped them into this.
Okay.
So they're all together.
I would say I'm with you, Brian,
a bit that I like
I kind of like the shit that comes out of the can
but I think I'm very alone
yeah I like it it's tart and sweet
and it's a nice little ring
I don't have to deal with a bunch of schloppiness
getting all mixed with other things
I like it so
sloppy sloppy take that
Dr. Calhoun who hates other nice things
all right
what else you got let's do it oh this is me
let's see yeah so what else you got I'm thinking
how the hell am I still not X'd out
All right.
Holidays, let's go with
Christmas
Goose. I don't know. Christmas goose.
I don't know. Christmas goose. I like that.
All right.
Show me.
Mendoza.
With a nice sauce.
Shoot.
No Christmas goose.
That's all right. Three points for Scott.
Brian, now it's time for you to put some points on the board.
of her the old question.
Yeah.
All right.
Then I'm going to have to go with something that I love,
but many people have an aversion to 50-50.
I want to say egg-nog.
Egg-k-nog.
I've got a bottle of eggnog zero up in the fridge right now.
They make eggnog zero?
It's not egg-nog.
It is called light egg-nog.
But here's the weird thing.
It's still just as thickened as regular eggnog.
But this is about the milkshakes are the only thickened liquids I can really get behind.
Oh, man.
I need to try that because I can't do the full sugary one.
Yeah, I'll show you.
I'll take a picture of the label for you.
You can see it comes from the dairy, directly from the dairy that Tina's mom gets milk from.
So, you know, you guys do a dairy too, don't you?
We do.
We got a big one called Winder Dairy.
They deliver and everything.
I could probably get it from them.
Winder Dairy.
Winder Dairy.
Yeah.
Show me egg and dog.
Eight points for Brian.
Oh my gosh.
He's on the board and in the lead all of a sudden.
Oh, hey.
People think that's the worst.
It's so good.
It's 50, 50 at my house.
We have half and half people.
And boy, people who don't like it really don't like it.
I get it.
I disagree with about 80% of this board.
I'll just say right now.
Well, how about.
But I also obviously also clearly love food.
So, you know, what we got?
Yeah.
Yeah.
How about some of them, how about some of that gross green jello salad with raisins in it that my aunt always brings?
That ends up going back.
Like the stuff you peel off the outside of the carrot before you cook a carrot.
That's what my mom did.
So she did.
And I hated it every time.
It's so gross.
All right.
Show me my favorite punk band.
Green Jello salad.
Oh, my.
Oh, my.
Oh, my.
You thought you were losing, didn't you?
You're not.
Oh, I did.
I was losing.
Number 10 answer on the one.
One of us has all the points.
And one of us has one.
it's going your way man
it's not me at all
I may have gotten first
but I'm going to not do well
right by the way
green jello salad is one of the ones
I do agree with by the way
I'm not a fan
yeah
Jello great
putting things in the jello
that aren't like
your fruit cocktail
kind of fruit
totally disagree with
yeah
raisins don't belong in jello salad
carrots don't belong in jello salad
but no
give me your
give me your mandarin orange slices your um whatever those weird nondescript things you get in a can of fruit cocktail i'm all
over how do you feel about those white cubes well how do you feel about the oh pairs they're
delicious they're okay i like bears but how do you feel about marshmallows in there because i hate
oh no no no no marshmallows my wife my wife my wife my wife mother
she used to my mom used to make it and that would just be she's like why don't you like why don't you
like it. It's sweet. I'm like, it's gross, mom.
Yeah. It's marshelows. There are two consistencies for marshmallows that are fine.
Yeah. Right out of the bag. As you're making s'mores. And then the smores. The smore itself.
Or the perfectly roasted one or a toasted one at a fire. Yes. It has to be just right though, even then.
Like so good that almost pulls off a shell and leaves a gooey inert and then just eat them.
But, but, uh, but in that weird gelatinous like,
Hard exterior, soft interior state.
No, thank you very much.
Yeah, I don't want that.
Not together.
Yeah, I don't want it together.
All right, well, done away, you're creaming it.
You're creaming it?
You're cleaning it.
You're doing it.
You're creaming it.
Oh, yeah, I'm creaming all over.
Okay, so I'm going to go with whatever.
So I'm going to go.
You guys are talking about the marshmallows,
maybe think about how much half of my family really hates pumpkin pie,
but I'm always like, even the marshmallows,
the little nicely toasted
when you put the nice little toasted marshmallows
sometimes I don't like pumpkin pie.
I don't like pie.
Okay.
All right.
Show me pumpkin pie.
This house, by the way, is with you on that.
Number six answer on the board for pumpkin pie.
Tina hates it.
I love it.
I'll take all of it.
I'll take her share.
Pumpkin pie.
But I've never had it with marshmallows on top.
Oh, yeah.
You just kind of toast a little bit.
Okay.
With like a little, what do you call it when you take the little torch and go,
torch it?
Torch and Torchette.
Yeah.
Well, I love that.
Anyway, yeah.
Hey, you know what else everybody hates?
What?
They hate.
We have three different types, and then there's always somebody that goes, I don't like
stuffing or I like stove top stuff.
And there's always somebody bitching about the kind of stuffing.
It's like, we like to add the, I'm going to stuffing.
I feel like that's a controversial.
Show me stuffing.
Oh, I'm a little surprised.
been higher. Stuffing was
number 12. So just out of
the money range.
I like stuffing. I like stuffing too.
I don't, you like the stuff to come. I'll take
any of it. Any of it. You like the stuff that's
cooked inside the turkey. I like the stuff that's cooked
in the bird. But here's the problem with that. You've got to
be, that is where. You've got to be careful.
You've got to be careful. Exactly.
Because. Don't default. Trust that, by the way.
Somebody, unless you know who made it and you know
they're mindful of what you're saying. Yes. Oh, you're going to be on the
shitter for a while.
Tina,
like if Tina makes it,
I trust her.
She,
every,
every time she's made it,
it's been fully cooked.
Tina's mom,
trust it.
But like,
if I'm going to somebody's house
for friends giving
and they're doing that,
maybe I'll just have the stove top shit.
Yeah.
I'm with you.
Which is so dry.
It's so dry,
but I'll eat any of it.
Put gravy on those.
I don't care who.
That's the thing.
It requires gravy.
Yeah.
Ooh,
gravy sounds so good.
Just gravy.
Just a handful of hot gravy.
Maybe there's gravy zero.
Let's look at the store and see if they've got gravy zero.
Why not?
Everything else does.
All right.
I'm going to go ahead and proffer a little bit of a more thing coming right up.
Let's say candy corn for Halloween.
Candy corn.
Not really food, but, you know, it's edible.
Yeah, and right now you get the candy corn that is not the traditional white, orange, yellow, right?
For Halloween, don't they usually have, like, black orange?
Oh, I don't know.
Do they?
We always just get the, we just get the, we just get the, that's right.
the regular colored ones.
It all tastes the same.
It all tastes the same.
Even the colors taste exactly the same.
Show me the bomb pop
in candy form.
Okay.
Number four.
Wanted that to be lower for the money.
Bring and scat up to seven points to Brian's 24.
We're usually not so scattered about
their answers here.
Yeah.
35, seven, nine. That's wild.
Okay.
Well, I really should have been thinking of the next one here.
Let's go with, um,
uh
easter
uh
Easter bunny
rabbit for Easter
what a terrible idea
we did that we actually did that once when I was younger
oh that's terrible
yeah it was terrible from a concept sort of way
but it was a good rabbit
was it all right
when was this when was this when was this when was this
when was this when was this when we asked anyway
because I'm totally locked into the holidays
current spring it was asked in the spring
oh that might okay
So you're spot on with that Easter stuff.
Yeah, I'm going to say, we're back to candy,
so I don't know how much this is going to be.
I guess Candy Corner was there.
So let's say peeps, the peeps.
Sure, sure.
One of the other worst forms of marshmallow.
Show me marshmallow peeps.
Oh, there we go.
I like that.
How do you make marshmallows worse?
Coat them in colored sugar, colored caster sugar.
Yeah.
Agree, a thousand percent.
Yeah.
I don't think those are.
good for our videos of people blowing them up in the microwave.
And those people that do that where they
say, oh, they're so good if you microwave them and then
eat them later. You're all insane, dude.
Yeah. Again, it's okay like Dr. Calhoun to hate things that are
great. It's okay to hate things that are...
Exactly.
Or love things that are gross. It's just, I'm just telling you.
Peeps are disgusting.
I wonder if you made rice, crispy treats with peeps,
what you'd end up with.
Diabetes.
It would just be...
You'd be diabetic after that.
Weird colored.
Diabetes is what you'd end up with.
Yeah, that sounds like a really bad idea to me.
Yeah, all right.
What do I know?
Okay.
Shit.
Just running out here.
Eridau 18 says, I worked at a zoo when we fed rabbits to the condors on Sundays, even Easter.
Well, the condors are like, hey, I'm still hungry today.
I know.
Hey, endangered species here.
Need some rabbits.
some rabbits.
Give me one of the plentiful creatures, please.
Thank you.
Right.
Let's do,
I still want to hang around the Halloween thing.
I'm going to say Smarties.
Those are bad.
I know this isn't a candy question,
but I just feel like people are,
I don't know,
call over the place.
All right.
Show me smarties.
Check.
Absolutely worst thing to get choked on.
You get choked in that powder,
that dust.
I think a stranger's penis in a hallway.
that's what I think.
I don't know.
I think you'd, I mean,
you'd stop coughing for a couple of seconds
with the stranger,
but you might call for 10 minutes.
But the one stranger is okay.
It's got to be somebody you know.
Oh my gosh.
I'm a big smarties fan.
Give me all your smarties,
whether they're the American smarties or the UK smarties.
I don't mind them either,
actually.
I'm okay with them.
I think I prefer the hard,
soury candy ones from here, though,
over the others because the others are just like M&M's.
What's your feeling on sweet tarts?
Same thing. I don't mind them. I like those occasionally. I'll say that. You can have one. There's always this line of that's just enough of those. And if you eat one more, you're going to regret it and hate them. It's like that. Yeah. Like pixie sticks. Remember those?
Oh, I remember. Yum. Yum. And then you get to the third one. You're like, I'm going to die. This is terrible. Yes. Exactly. This should just be one. Should just be one picksy stick or lick them sticks. Oh, no. Pixie sticks. The ones with the. Pixies have the powder in them and then lick them.
has the stick and those I also
liked but again they have that same problem
yeah I just too much quarter of the way through
fine with it yeah I just like I'm done
with it yeah yeah I just like the stick
I don't I don't care for the powder stuff
you just eat the stick I like the stick
it was good I mean it's like a
you know it's a sweet piece of chalk
yeah yeah it's a sweet piece of chug baby
by the way I drove
somebody dressed as Corolla deville
in my Uber the other day on our way to a
Halloween party fun and we're talking about
I asked her, I said, well, do you do have, she had the wig, she had the outfit, everything,
but I didn't see the long cigarette on a stick thing.
Oh, right.
And I said, you do have the long cigarette on a stick thing.
She's like, oh, yep, got it right here.
I was actually going to ask you to swing by the convenience store so I could pick up cigarettes.
I was hoping they'd have candy cigarettes.
And I don't think they make those anymore.
And it got me thinking, I know they don't make those.
Do they still make Big League Chew?
Because it feels like Big League Chew would have the same problem.
They still make Big League Chew, but I think now you've got candy vape, right?
Isn't that a thing?
I don't know.
What?
There's no candy vape.
Come on now.
Vaping is candy.
Oh, yeah.
There's tons of, there's sweet vapes.
By me, they smell like candy.
Well, yeah.
Yeah, I don't breathe in powdered sugar as far as I know.
Big Leak Chew.
You crush up Smarties and you breathe a man.
You can still buy Big Big Chew, in fact, on Amazon.
You can buy it in bulk.
You can get a seven pack for 20 bucks.
It feels like, again, it's, I mean, as long as they're not,
it's still called chew it feels like hey here's shredded bubble gum just call it shredded bubble gum
because if you call it chew and they're like well i'm ready i'm getting ready to move up to the
real stuff but i think i'm gonna gateway myself with big league chew first yeah and it's uh oh my gosh
did you know that big league chew is the official bubble gum of the baseball hall of fame
according to this yeah that's weird i mean was there a lot was bubble young really vying for that for that
spot. I don't know. It's so weird.
But it did start with like a bunch of baseball.
Like it has its beginnings in baseball.
Obviously, thematically, it was always that.
Sure.
His baby Ruth and the candy bars.
They still have their, in Rochester,
New York. They still have their corporate office.
They're still a thing. Interesting. Okay.
But I haven't seen them at a gas station in a hundred years.
I'd love to look at a label and see if it has,
if it says,
um,
chewing tobacco is bad for you, kids.
Yeah. Yeah. Like my mom,
I was forbidden fruit in our house. We couldn't have this.
like it looks like the shredded carrots from the
from the green jello salad
can you believe we chewed on this and we thought it was cool
this stuff was terrible my gosh
but yeah we would get this and my mom would be
not in this house and throw it out
and then the candy
cigarette same thing anything that was like
I love the idea of your mom walk
as the house not in this house
got out of here that big league too
all right
done away it's done away yeah still done away
It's my story.
Okay, all right.
Oh, crap.
Wasn't it?
Oh, I'm going to go with,
not everybody likes the green beans and mushrooms, which they put together.
It's a good old green beans, though.
I think just in general.
Let's sprinkle some potato chips, crumbled up potato chips on the top.
Yeah.
No, we use the official, what, French's, onion thingies, whatever it is.
Official.
The official stupid shit to put on your beans is what it is.
It's got a picture on the, on the container of, like, green beans.
It's like, this is how you use these.
Yeah.
It's really the only way to you.
use those, right? It's not even serving suggestion.
It's serving requirement. It's like
Big League Chew for green beans. It's great.
Show me the green bean casserole.
Oh, my Lord.
Clear, like locks
out Scott from winning. There's only
eight points left on the board. So
I really wanted that one. Yeah. And you know what?
I'll say this. My mom won't make it this year. She can't do it anymore.
But her green bean casserole is one of the favorites
at our thing. Everybody loves it. But it's
all about how you make it. So if you're just dumping it
there and putting chips on it, like Brian said, which I
have had, then get the hell out of
that house and never return. I kind of prefer the
crumbled up potato chips, to be honest. I like
that on a sandwich. I've had the French's.
Oh, that's good too. Yeah.
I might do that today. I have
chips and I have a sandwich. I'm going to do that. There you go.
Yeah. Why not? Why not? The hell not. Damn it,
done away. I was really hoping nine was going to be mine. So
give us whatever else you got.
All right. I'm going to go with, I think
that pecan pie
makes a lot of people angry because it's so,
so gooey and and plus you have to argue about pecan versus pecan the whole thing is just
oh yeah nothing's good the wording of it my wife's family the people who say pecan are incorrect
it's pecan pie yeah it's pecan pie if it's a little part of take and pecan pie yeah if you're
from the south if you're from the south it's always pecan not not even pecan it's like pecan
yeah pecan like a chicken might say it um but then they say old instead of oil so i don't know
what's up of those people they're like turtles all right let's show them
me the pecan the pecan pie
oh shit
I would have put that
all right
I like the little single serve
pecan pies you can buy at the gas station
I'm talking about the
yes yes they come in a clear plastic
yeah yeah that's a thing I didn't know that
oh yeah individual pie
it's like a little tart it's like a pecan tart
do they have other kinds like a little apple one
and I don't think I've seen that but yeah
I think I've seen it either
pecan pie minis probably have a better shelf life
than any other
any other possible tie because
that's true
solidified in that sugar
I forgot to tell you I was going to make this a show topic
completely spaced it we talked to a guy who works at Pepsi
and he does
this thing he's the guy that will go
into your maverick or your
AMPM or whatever and fix the
stuff that's broken like if a pump's
broken or the dispensary
stuff and often it's just
inspecting it's like coming to see how they're doing
doing just general inspections
and he said there are two places you never
ever want to get your drinks ever okay because they're gross and moldy never cleaned oh god like mold
inside the shoot like you pull off the front shoot there's like mold in there oh and he says and so
i don't want to know i'm gonna tell you because one of them you don't have to worry about because it's
mostly in my area uh the other you will probably because they're pretty universal but it's uh in my
area and regionally it's maverick stories he says are terrible really don't get your drinks there
just down the way yeah he says taco bell is the best oh oh i love my
Taco Bell. By far, he says.
Without a doubt, Taco Bell has the clean, he says they are constantly cleaning that stuff
out. They can Baja blast that mold right out of them. That's right. They got the Baja blaster.
And then the other one to avoid is, he says, is the absolute worst is 7-Eleven, which sounds
stereotypic to say, but at 7-Eleven. That's a bummer too. They just got so many drinks,
and I think that's a problem. They can't manage all of them. They got like a drink bar thing.
Whatever. They're sitting there for 24 hours. They can, guess what, at 2 o'clock in the morning when
there is just people going in there to buy cigarettes?
or Cheetos because they have the munchies
take those little screw those little things off there
wash them out put it back I did that
I'd hate for you to be my manager
at the all right whatever whatever
I worked at a pizza by the Slice Place in high
school and that was my job every night
during closing I'd have to sweep
the place mop I'd take all the caps
off put them in water to soak them
and then wash each spigot
of the
they need you at this
my local Maverick is what they need
clearly yeah
Because that's effed, I guess, according to him.
You know what you could do?
They just screw right, like, you can unscrew those right off.
Just go to your local Maverick before you get a drink and just unscrew it.
Okay, yep.
Yeah.
I don't even know how it all works.
That's just a straight tube to that, right?
If you're open 24th Street tube.
Is it, yeah, it's a straight tube from the, right, from the syrup pump.
So there's no mixer area or anything weird like that.
It's like the pump and the air.
It mixes with the carbonated water.
Does it comes in from a, yeah.
like from it they merge to go through that okay so it's not like a chamber of mix where that chamber
can get gross and sediment and all that right there's nothing like that in there no no they
the the two roads emerge right at the exit point okay just feels like some of that mumbo jumbo
we don't know about in the world and we shouldn't ask bumbo jumbo because it's gross if we knew
the truth you know right right I can I just say I don't know who tuned in for a full TMS that is
one complete game
of Tad Pooley Feud, but I'm here for it.
I'm happy to do it. Yeah, Tom Merritt
out of town one week and look what we've done.
We just decided the new
spin-off show from TMS is just going to be
an hour-long game of Tad Pooley Feud.
A discussion.
I will say one more thing. If you
work in retail or have to deal with
the general public and a
third shift job, your only
job is to survive the night. That's it.
You don't have to do anything else. Yeah, that's
true. No, but if you're sitting there,
anyway clean the damn pot machine you got it how you're supposed to be watching for people to murder
you if you're busy cleaning the so we got your back turn clean the soda machine you face the door
and you back up and you reach behind you and unscrew the things and then you come back and you wash them
and then you go back and you put them back yeah and then as far as I know every because I've seen a lot
of movies every counter has a little police button underneath every counter has a shotgun like
mounted ready to go yeah yeah I know that's going to work I've learned a lot of things right next to
You know, it's right next to the soda dispenser, the hot coffee machine.
And we also saw Judge Reinhold fend off a robber by splashing hot coffee on them.
Yeah, that's not bad.
Also, there's molding nose.
All I can say is anybody working third shift with the public deserves a raise.
There, I'm done.
Okay.
No, you know what?
I think we found a three-way agreement on that.
Totally agree, yes.
Yeah, for sure.
There are essential workers right there.
All right, Brian Dunaway.
Oh, is it my turn again?
No, it's yours.
it's yours because Brian got a brain got a
oh shit
whatever he said I just figured I
I don't know what I thought
pecan pie
pecan pie that was like 40 minutes ago
I mean we're all having a great time so this is all good
let's go with
boiled eggs
either in oh sure like your hard boiled eggs
yeah yeah because it's either deviled or it's
I like some deviled eggs if they're done right
but sure sometimes they're not and then also
boiled eggs at Easter so maybe there's some
combo answer here. I don't know.
Just eggs.
We'll just say eggs.
Sure.
Show me your produced eggs for Easter.
Damn it.
Man, really?
Yeah, no, I'm surprised because
those are hit or miss as well.
I think one person said
eggs.
I always feel like, yeah, hardboiled eggs.
Hardboard is the key for that.
I always feel like either a dinosaur or some kind of bird
when I eat those deviled eggs.
I felt like I had to like gobble them all at once.
You're right.
You're right.
You do.
I don't think anyone should have to bite them in half and then eat the other.
It's weird.
It's like an oyster.
Just suck it in.
Yeah, he's got to do it.
Devil eggs is the right way to do it though because on its own, the center, the yolk, the cooked up boiled yolk is so damn dry.
You need it mixed with spices and stuff.
Totally agree.
And if you do that right, they're amazing.
But more mustard than anything.
It's all about the mustard.
Yes, it is about the mustard.
Man, I love mustard.
Relish, no relish?
I love mustard on everything, man.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm a sucker for it.
That is the third strike.
I also like sugar-free sugar.
Everyone should try that.
Sorry, yeah, third strike.
Did you say sugar-free sugar?
Yeah, we have a sugar or we have a fruit or something.
No, it's just like Heinz with no sugar instead of adding sugar.
You mean sugar-free ketchup?
Catch-up.
I'm sorry, what I say, mustard?
You said sugar-free-free sugar.
I was listening.
I even repeated it back to you and you agreed, yes.
Yeah, no, sugar-free, sorry, sugar-free ketchup is amazing because it's more savory and
taste like it should be.
I don't know why we put sugar in those at the beginning with.
I don't get it.
Yeah, yeah.
Anyway, sorry.
Continue.
No.
I think that was great.
Oh, it's right.
That's right.
Yeah, we did it.
Who's ready for that third strike?
Let's see here.
All right.
We've hit everything except for we haven't.
talked about oh i don't know um oh all i can think of those stupid but that's valentine's day
i can think of those stupid candy hearts i hate those stupid chalky things why would that work i think
if we did candy corns that's a fine answer that's all right that's fine stupid candy hearts
that my love always gives me not to pretend to eat conversation hearts is what they're called i think
conversation hearts is correct yes all right show me those horrible chalky
conversation hearts that was on the list though um 24
was Candy Hearts, Conversation Hearts.
Jack Bauer.
Candy hearts.
That's right.
All right.
Let's take a look at what you guys didn't get.
Number three, this blows my mind.
I wholeheartedly disagree with this choice.
Turkey.
Somebody just, 30 people in the tadpole do not like turkey.
One person said overcooked turkey, and I argue way better than undercooked turkey.
Turkey's my favorite of the bird meats.
I love turkey.
No kidding.
I feel like we need a spring holiday that, let's invent one.
More turkey.
Yeah, I like that.
You notice Christmas often is also Christmas turkey.
Sometimes, sometimes ham, but I like the turkey.
Like turkey all year.
I like turkey burgers.
Yep.
I like that.
Just got to break in the turkey song.
I like turkey with.
Gravy.
Like turkey with your home.
There you go.
Perfect.
Turkey with the gravy sauce.
That's perfect for him.
You can totally do that.
But I even like their weird, like, ball sack they have on their beak before they die.
I like everything about turkeys.
Turkeys are great.
Turkeys are great.
Let's look at number five.
When you brought up pumpkin pie with the toasted marshmallows on top, I completely thought, all right, well, he's also going to say.
Maybe yam pie.
Yeah, the sweet potatoes, yams.
Yeah, once again, it has to be right.
If it's right, it's great.
Yeah, do you think of those is like the same thing, brain?
No, no, no.
I've seen people do both.
But, yeah, typically it's the yams and stuff, but we don't do that very often.
Yeah.
My sister does really good.
Candied yams, but they're super, like, brown-sugured up.
And they're barely a vegetable.
Like, you like brown-siggered.
Yeah.
Right, right.
Exactly.
Brown-sigger and butter.
Your number 11, lootfisk.
Oh, okay.
That's a thing.
Is that a holiday item?
Apparently, that's tied to a holiday.
I don't know which holiday it's tied to, but I agree that it's bad.
Funer is it?
That's the holiday.
When you die.
when you want to eat that. That's where what causes you to die. Number 13 is corned beef and cabbage. Again, wholeheartedly disagree. Brussels sprouts. Number 14. Ham, sausage and sourcrap for New Year's for New Year's thing. It's also a horrible band. Boiled cabbage, candy canes, haggis for Robbie Burns Day, blood pudding, carp. Somebody has carp for Christmas, apparently. Gross. Shouldn't have carp ever.
Yeah. Hot dogs is your number 27. You said that at the very beginning. Mints meat pie, potato salad, sprouts. And then somebody said airplane food, because I'm guessing they think about it before you eat on the way to go to somebody's house for holidays.
Makes sense. I get that. Indigestion. I have that every time I travel. Well, there you go. Donaway, I think you won this fair and square. So, Brian, who are our winners? And what did they actually win?
Sure. Our winner today. Well, both people are technically winners because winner. Winner. Winner.
turkey dinner. Brian, you won. So Andrea Hope is getting a copy of I-Tora.
Woo! Congratulations. She gets one of those.
And Andro Dunos 2. Andrew Dunos 2. I don't know what that is.
I don't know what that is. Yeah. But don't worry, Justice Beaver. You're getting a copy of Eternal Edge Plus.
That's awesome. I love if I could say it. Yeah. Justice Beaver.
Like Justin Bieber? It's like Justin Bieber.
Yeah. I think that might be it. It's Justice Beaver.
Yeah. I want to draw a Justice Beaver. In fact, you know, I might draw a law, like a law enforcing beaver.
Just sit on the bench with the, with the, the, uh, the star. He'll have a star on him.
A parliamentary wig. Oh, oh, oh, oh, gotcha. Yeah, or whatever, you know, law and order.
Supreme Court Justice Beaver. Yeah, that's even, I didn't think of that. He might be better as a judge, but I love the name. It's an amazing name.
Sora propped, Supreme Court Justice Beaver.
actually it's not bad
that might be a good use of our wasted
time on there
done away
a bottle of water on that good job
we're gonna we're gonna send you on your way
but before we do a reminder that tonight
is play retro
we had to move it because Carter
was traveling we did Monday show yesterday
so everything kind of got shifted this week
but tonight we're going to be doing that
and if you like the band kiss
or more particularly
if you just want to shoot a bunch of stuff
as the band kiss
yeah yeah sort of
and you're not even
the band kiss you're an avatar playing a character this kind of like that but if you enjoyed the
90s and you enjoyed those indie comics and you enjoyed kiss psycho circus or the album any parts of
those things are all mixed right into a first person shooter yeah this so this interesting
the the game is based on after peter chris and ace freely left the band right when they brought in
the no no no so this is this is post so it's post the hairband era right the
The no makeup era.
Oh, God.
Right, no makeup era.
Yeah.
So they came back with their makeup and this is that.
Look it up.
No, that's bad.
The game should be based on the, the, the kiss you think of when you think of the band kiss.
Well, they are, but they got it wrong.
They are in that the avatars are like fully makeuped demon, fully makeup Paul Stanley.
All that.
It's just that's when it came out was.
Yeah.
And they represent.
that um this is their novelty phase i feel like where they just we weren't sure what they were doing
like jean simmons is off making dolls and a reality tv and nobody's really doing music anymore
so it's kind of that but it's basically quake with a bunch of kiss references it's weird
so we'll talk about it's tonight uh what's the full title of the game brian's kiss kiss kiss
psychos circus uh the nightmare child the nightmare child there's a lot of colon's in that game
which it was called the demon child in the comic and i'm assuming they changed it because uh
The word demon.
Yeah, video games.
Hey, Paul Stanley, let's put a bunch of
colones in our game.
That's exactly what it is.
I think that's a great idea, Gene.
There's two colons in it.
I thought they might do a colon, then a dash note.
There's two colon.
Somebody called the cat in the spaceman.
We're about to make a game.
That's my Paul Stanley.
It's very good.
It's spot on.
I always enjoy doing it.
Brian Dunaway, it's always good talking to you.
I'll see you a little bit later tonight for that
and perhaps some other shenanigans.
Who knows?
Stay out of trouble.
Eat your sprouts and don't.
green beans trust your zero your green bean zero okay bye now
gravy zero um that speaking of video games i just picked up because it was on sale big you know
ever since i found that um the weekly video that does a recap and and showing you all of the
switch two games that are currently on sale yeah it's been bad for me right because i've
odd world um whatever that the odd world game is side scrolling platform i'm having a blast
with it's really good yeah but unicorn overlord
just dropped in price
and I know that's a big favorite for people
and I'm freaking all over it
Yeah unicorn overlord
You said load or lord
Make sure it's the right one
I said overlord I thought
Oh you probably did I think you did
I was thinking overlord but I maybe I did say
Loverlord I think I may have heard load in my own head
Overload
Anyway that game is one of my favorite games
I love that game
That's cool
I can't wait yeah I'm so excited
to start it. It's also where I got it is on Switch,
funny enough. It's where I picked it up.
Cool. Or Switch 2, I should say.
I'll share that YouTube
channel, the
weekly
the weekly video that tells you like the really good deals. I'll put that
in chat or something.
Oh, that's great. There's a
weekly article over on PC
Gamer. It does something similar for Steam.
Strange Steam games you may not
have heard of that are awesome and so every week
they tell you. I've found so many
gems through that. It's really great.
I love that kind of stuff.
Switch Corner is the channel on YouTube, and every week they do e-shop sale, and they show you, they show video of all the different games.
So it's like, that's what I need.
I need to be able to see like, oh, okay, that's kind of a cozy game where you're renting a bookstore.
That sounds cool.
Or, oh, that's pixel garbage first-person shooter that looks horrendous.
No, I don't want it.
Sorry.
Brian's allergic to pixels.
he doesn't like them i don't like pixels if you can't listen putting picks and doing your game all his
little uh eight bit looking stuff cute but it just shows you uh shows you have a lack of creativity
well i mean to their credit they're aiming for the aesthetic but i understand what you mean
but i also think that some of them take on do it because it's easy it's kind of it's kind of
the beef i have with uh when things look like a PS1 that's starting to happen a lot more but i've
been convinced a couple of times a couple of times things have come across my purview where i'm
like actually that works in this case like this uh i should share it with you because i think
you'd like it's this it's not gambling game but it's a little bit like baltro in in terms of oh the
black check the black uh that one too that's another good example yeah that's a good one i like
that one where you pull the thing what do you call that slot machine slot machine i forgot the name
of it that kind of weird that looks at my camera i know yeah um you pull slot machines and you do a
similar thing that you're building up these combos you have these add-ons that like change the
whatever and the whole thing looks like a
shaky PS1 bad
bad texture map
and that's on purpose obviously
and I usually don't like that aesthetic
like at all to me that was the awkward
3D stage but it's kind of starting
to work for me a little bit so I don't know
stuff comes and goes I mean if it's the right game
I'm fine with the pixel thing but
but it's really like the game really has to
has to be excellent
for me to be cool with that
I'll bet that new Avengers game
a side scroll and beat them up I'll bet you'll love that
that demo's awesome. I'm excited
about that. Yeah. And it's very, very pixels, but it's also, they're also doing some animation
in there that you wouldn't have done back then, you know. I'm kind of even excited about that
fighting, that Capcom looking, um, fighting game. Oh, yeah, that one looks cool. Yeah. That's a Japanese
dev and you can tell the stylization on that. It looks so awesome. I don't know when that's
coming out, but it looks really good. Uh, well, that's it for today's show, everybody. Forget that
call now thing. We ain't doing it. Sorry. Sorry. Call then. Call then.
call again a different time. That's what we'll do.
Don't worry. We're not going to throw away your messages
if you sent some. We'll still... No, no. We'll use
them for sure. Oh, yeah. They'll come up on the show. In the meantime,
go to our website, frogpans.com slash TMS. We will have a show
tomorrow. Wendy should be here. And I can't
believe it's already Thursday. That'll be fun.
We'll do some kind of... I'm going to actually dress up tomorrow.
I'm going to do a little Halloween thing.
Oh, cool. Yeah. Well, then I will as well.
For the first time ever, Brian usually shows up. You're usually the guy.
And I always go, I'm so lame.
Barber, bear, bear.

The GPO owned it before
I drive in it for my job
Governor calls me a slaw, but I don't really care.
Give me some gas in the open air.
It's a fiddle, but it's mine. I'm in my spare time.
Just last week I changed the oil, the rocker valves and the coil.
