Smothered in yellow gravy.
Starting point is 00:00:22 It's the girl from Epinada. Buntut and fry. All of this is liquid. I don't like beanie. Warm farts and hot hearts. It'll be nudity. Douglas Adams knew 6'7 before it was a thing. Ray Roybans.

I need water for to make the cream of wheat. Ah, that's the level of stupid we're looking for. Hello, everybody, and welcome to TMS, the morning stream for February 2nd, 2026. That's right, new month.
Starting point is 00:01:16 I'm Scott. That's Brian. Who dis? Hi, it's me. It's me. I dis. Oh, man. I dis.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Oh, geez. Just hit my light. Oh, you're right? Yeah, I'm right. Okay. Good. I'm all right. You remind me of another Roy Orbison tune.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Well, it's all right. It sounds just like him And it's all right As long as you got somewhere to lay I'm only 48 But I looked 110 my whole I know A dude when he was 20
Starting point is 00:01:45 He looked like he was 48 Yeah I don't know That guy had a look I'll give him that I did get the nicest letter Handwritten letter From Roy Orbison's widow When I did the Coverville tribute
Starting point is 00:01:57 To Roy Orbison Oh nice Do you have a handy there? No I don't I was just grab my calendar I was all excited. Just realized it's a brand new month. No, somewhere, and I shouldn't have it framed, really,
Starting point is 00:02:09 but she sent a pair of Roy Orbison sunglasses, not like sunglasses he wore, but apparently there was a Roy Orbison merch store for a while that had Orbson branded Raybans. Oh my gosh, that makes sense, though, right? With his signature on the side, yeah. I never knew what kind of sunglasses he had on, I suppose. Now we know they're Raybans, or at least that's the deal he made.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Yeah, that's wild. Well, folks, I've got some good news. Some great news. All right. The good news is the nerdtacular schedule is now up. Ooh, I need to look at that. Yeah. If you go to Nerdtacular on the Frog Pants page, you'll see a new button with a nice little star on it.
Starting point is 00:02:47 It says event schedule. And you click on that. And we have Thursday, Friday, Saturday. You can click on any of those. Basically, we've broken things down into, so this isn't, we're not going to split things out into thirds like we did in some years. just never having three tracks it was never very great some people would get like two people and it bummed me out because yeah i really wanted like i'd want to go to everything is the problem yeah so we're gonna make it so it kind of is everything but we do have this main track versus side track idea and i'll explain that
Starting point is 00:03:17 in a second okay um let me move this up so i can scroll there we go uh so for example on thursday the 11th when everybody gets there we got a welcome to nerdtacular mixer and then we got this thing I'm doing with Dunaway and Travis is going to join us. This retro watchalong thing. It's just a fun, casual. We're done with the mixer from May to 9. We're just going to hang out in there and watch some old shitty cartoons on the screen. It's going to be fun.
Starting point is 00:03:41 And then from 9 to 10, we gave Travis a slot to do weight you haven't seen. Again, these aren't like main track things, but we want to make sure people are aware of them. So we've kind of made them jump out in a different color. On Friday the 12th, we got the opening ceremonies all throughout the day. There's all the information. I'm not going to go through each one, obviously. And Saturday, same thing. Ooh, to do a live TMS, you don't say.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Yeah, I know, right? Crazy. Live film sack? What? What? How do these traditions even start? No kidding. How are you going to keep core down to like less than two hours?
Starting point is 00:04:16 It's going to be hard, especially because there's going to be some guests in that thing. And it's also, it's going to include most of the gaming content of the network. So 130 to 320. hopefully is enough time. We don't know. We'll figure it out. Also, I do feel like we need we do need a different thing than Frog Pants All-Stars. Watch the producers
Starting point is 00:04:40 test their might against Brian Abbott. No, no, no. They're testing against each other. Does it say testing against Brian of it? Yeah. And that's a, I think Bobby wrote that. I can change any of these. Yeah, we all need to change that. I have the power. You're not playing against me. You're playing because of me. Because of you. You're the reason we have to do this. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:04:59 I'm, okay, you know what? No, I can do it. I can do it in that. I think, I think I don't bobby more time than that, but maybe not. I need to, uh, all of it is, is liquid. We can move stuff around. Good, good, good, good. Yeah, none of this isn't stone. Pub trivia. Is this, so this is going to be like, what's this thing? So the idea of this pub trivia thing on Friday night, it's kind of a late night thing, 10 to 11. Uh, here you go, chat, you can see it. Uh, the description's not correct, but basically it will be like frog pants trivia. And it will be like, uh, trivia about frog
Starting point is 00:05:26 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's everything from like, I'll think of something dumb here, but like Brian Ibitt writes a song every week for what show. That's a terrible one. But you know what I mean? Like it'd be that sort of stuff. And then there'll be some prizes. So that'll be fun. We need a better description on it though, but I can do that today.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Anyway. Oh, okay. I've got a second game first thing in the morning on Saturday. All right, cool. This makes sense. Well, yeah. I mean, 10 a.m. But not, you know, not so much first thing.
Starting point is 00:05:54 If I'm staying up late to play. Pub trivia. Tell me, you know, it's not, I'm sure there would be any alcohol anywhere around me for, yeah,
Starting point is 00:06:03 we're not getting any younger folks. That's what we're saying. Anyway, it's going to be great. We got lots of little like meet and greet signing times.
Starting point is 00:06:11 We got some breaks, all that stuff. And of course, right up here, board game room open 24-7 throughout the event. Boom. So that's exciting.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Nice. Okay, now I'm going to give you guys some, this is real talk time. This is Scott, going full transparency mode because that's how I like to roll generally speaking but with nerdtacular some of this
Starting point is 00:06:34 needs to be mentioned. Back in September I ran August or September I ran a couple of surveys. It was basically gauging interest in people coming which helped us figure out what our contract was going to be with the venue. That was partially based on
Starting point is 00:06:50 those numbers by people saying whether they were coming or not. And we part of that survey was are you in the states, are you from outside the states, whatever, are you international? Something has kind of happened in the intervening months where I made a bet that things wouldn't get worse with the, let's just call it the current. The administration. Sure, there's the word.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Or you know what, just to keep all the people off YouTube and leaving dumb comments, which I will delete anyway, so don't waste your time. But let's just call it the administration policies. All right. Sure. safe way to do it. I've been doing follow-ups, and there is a somewhere in the range of 80% drop-off
Starting point is 00:07:33 of commitment from the international side. No change on the domestics. But the internationals, off a cliff. And you know what? I'm here to tell you, I don't freaking blame you at all. I don't want anybody anywhere,
Starting point is 00:07:50 including just Canada, which, by the way, saw the biggest drop. And we're used to. Yeah, and we're used to getting a ton of people from Canada. So this is no small number of people. And as a result, because of that, and like I said, Canada in particular, which is probably the easiest, closest neighbor to travel for it, have said, yeah, I just don't feel good about it right now. And I get it, dude.
Starting point is 00:08:15 I 100% get it. Like, I do not blame any of you. However, it puts me in a weird position. So needless to say, we're pushing forward. doing a thing, we're making it happen. I'm probably going to have to negotiate with the venue to try to scale back some of the expectation in terms of the international crowd. Honestly, if we just get somewhere in the, what is it, 80012 room nights for the hotel, we're golden. We're okay there. But as a result, the internationals were, we would be there almost already by now.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Yeah. But because of that drop off, we're not. And the result, is based on the current contract, if I didn't fulfill that end of it, based on my projections, I would be in debt to the tune of somewhere 120-something grand. All right. Personally, I would be tied to that debt. Right, right. It's a nightmarish thing to say out loud, but it is what it is. So as a result, there are a couple of things going on.
Starting point is 00:09:19 If we can sell another 500 tickets, which is roughly what we do every time we do one of these that would be great. That would probably be in enough hotel rooms. It would be enough buffer to be able to cover things. I don't need to make a dime on these things. I never do. I basically just need to cover shit. That's it. So use the hotel link for the room rates. That helps a lot because the room nights are a big part of this contract. I'm talking to them this week about seeing if I got any wiggle room based on the dropout of the internationals. This is not me begging you guys to come, right? This is not me going, get over here. you got to save me from my own
Starting point is 00:09:54 poor judgment about what the next six months we're going to be like I'm not asking for that but I do think that the I do think the venue and the people I work with are going to be very reasonable and they're going to want to help me figure it out. Yeah for sure for sure I remember when I mean
Starting point is 00:10:10 it's a different situation but there was something we had to do with TMS Vegas was it that same year that yeah because we had a TMS Vegas planned as well for 2020. Oh, right. Yeah, we were going to try to do both and we had to bail on it. Yep. And they were both, they were all like, yeah, no worries. You're good. Even though he signed a contract, you know. Yeah. And in this case, this contract does allow for like these huge uncontrollable, like another pandemic with no problem. It's in the contract to cancel. Yeah. Yeah. I don't want to cancel. I want to see you people is what I want to do.
Starting point is 00:10:45 Right, right, right. And we are doing all the work. Like it's happening. This is happening regardless. The question is, well, I get to June and have more debt than I've ever had my entire life outside of a house payment. Maybe. I hope not. Anyway, go to the website, check out the new schedule, click on the nerdtacular link, grab your tickets, get your hotel, find the details. They're all there. More coming. It's all important, but the most important thing is get those hotel rooms, use the link to the link on Nurtacular.
Starting point is 00:11:22 dot com to get the hotel room because that is that's the you know that's that's where the the contract kind of is the most pertinent it always is room nights are the biggest thing man they really are and it's always you know that was the case with the plaza is like all right where are we at what do we need okay we're okay all right I know I hate that
Starting point is 00:11:42 freaking hate that feeling peek up at the end but you don't want to wait till the end you don't want that stress of like yeah and like I said had the had if we even just had a baked potato in charge, we would probably not have this problem with the internationals. But I
Starting point is 00:12:00 understand it. I want to make that very clear. This is not me blaming the international at all. If I were you, I'd feel the exact same way. I totally get it. And to those handful that are still coming, your heroes in my book. But anyway, more
Starting point is 00:12:16 on this as we go along, but the best rates for the hotel are on that link. Just go to the site. Frogpants.com. You'll see the or tacular link everywhere on there. We can't wait to see it. We're going to have a blast. All right. Cool.
Starting point is 00:12:27 There you go. There you go. Full transparency. Very, very good. Why don't we play a game? Yeah, sounds good. In order to do that, we've got to play this. Hey, look who it is.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Our old pal Brian Dunaway joining us. Hey, man. Oh, it looks quiet. I mean, turn you up. Hold on, I think. Oh, I know. You're at work, right? I got to change mic settings here.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Turn the video up. There we go. Is that better? Yeah, you're good. All right, cool, cool, cool. How are you? Hi, how are you doing? What are you up to?
Starting point is 00:13:07 Oh, I'm just trying to, you know, stay warm. Yeah. The snowmageddon here in the southeast is almost over. So, yeah, just trying to ride it out. Yeah, you don't, there's nothing else on the horizon, right? Once this clears, you're in Happy Town. I don't, I don't look at the weather. I don't watch the news.
Starting point is 00:13:26 Well, I hope for your sake that you don't freeze any pipes, and you know oh that actually Ethan did go through that my youngest son he called me he's out of town right now and his neighbors called him and they said hey man our backyard has flooded we had to turn your water out
Starting point is 00:13:42 oh no that's awful yeah that's not good I don't like that at all we did this one we had frozen pipes once it's one of the worst things we ever went through years ago old house but yeah it's a pain total nightmare well I'm glad you're here now that's what I'm glad about
Starting point is 00:13:58 So we'll play a game. Brian Ibit here has rules and all kinds of stuff. He's always got rules. Lay down some rules for sure, except I wrote down the road. You can't touch me there. That's a good rule, though. That is a good rule, though. That is a rule number one.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Welcome to the morning. Half ass is a trivia game where I'm actually going to be giving the two you chuckleheads of the answers. I'm going to give Scott and Brian a category and six possible answers. Three of those answers are correct. And three, like touching Brian there. are incorrect. Depending on how confident they feel with the category, they can provide one, two, or three guesses.
Starting point is 00:14:34 But if any of those guesses are wrong, you 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 those points at the end. You guys are going to win some prizes for other people. They're the best people.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Other people. Contestants have been pulled from members of the tab pool that aren't able to be here live. Scott, you're playing for Luke Johnson, no relation. Hey, Luke. What's up? Luke. Brian, you're playing for Laura.
Starting point is 00:14:59 I'm not your relation. DiMock. DeMock. DeMach. Laura DiMach and Jalad at Tanagra. I knew it. She won the walls. Beautiful.
Starting point is 00:15:07 That's right. All right. Very good. We'll talk about what those prizes are at the end of the game. Let's go ahead and get to question number one. Played a lot of trivia this weekend. So I've got my game show hat on. By the way, I beta tested one of the games that I'm going to be doing for All-Stars.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Nothing but Alpha's here. So do you know good. Yeah, well, but it went over resoundingly well. Like people loved this new weird game that I came up with. So, yeah. Yeah, so I'm excited. The only people, only people in Salt Lake City are ever going to see that game. But anyway, that's.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Take that. Get in here. Take that. All right. Let's get to question number one. Beaches. Beaches. I love that movie.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Name beaches. No, which of these are beaches in Rio de Janeiro? Which of these are beaches you can find in Rio de Janeiro? Lemme, Madeiro, Sanabelle, Ipanima, Vermela, and Cozsaco. You think the girl from Ipanema would know the answer to this, probably. Girl from Ipanima goes walking and... All right. Yeah, you guys played it safe on this one.
Starting point is 00:16:27 probably a really good choice. By the way, Ipanema. That's a beach. She's walking down the beach in Rio Dajian. I didn't know where it was in the world. That's the whole song. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:37 All right. Let's see. You guys both picked Madero. Let's start with that one right here. Madero is not a beach. We start and end right there. Look at my Madero. All right.
Starting point is 00:16:50 And that one with all the weird con seciao, whatever with the tild over the A and that weird thing under the sea. Yeah. What is that actually? Do you know what that is? No, they didn't tell me on this card. It doesn't tell me what those really are. Like sometimes it says,
Starting point is 00:17:04 these are Final Fantasy characters or things like that. This one, I don't know where they came up with those names, but those are... Well, perhaps if someone ever invite me to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro, maybe I would know them. All right, yeah, somebody get Brian an invite. Rio de Jeleno. All right, let's get to question number two. This one's a little more up your alley.
Starting point is 00:17:27 NBA, which of these the NBA stars are taller than seven feet zero inches. Scott actually knows a little bit NBA stuff. I know nothing. You guys might have some luck with this one. Tim Duncan, Bill Russell, Moses Malone, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Shaquille O'Neal and Yao Ming. Three of these chuckleheads are taller than seven foot tall. I think that's right. I didn't click on the dot.
Starting point is 00:17:53 I clicked on the name. I didn't get that last one I wanted. Oh. It won't matter. I'm probably wrong regardless. All right. There's no undo button here. There's no undo button.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Sorry. That'll cost us an extra 50 bucks. Let's get to the one you guys both selected. Shaquille O'Neal. He's a big fella. But he's only one inch taller than seven feet. He is taller. He is taller than seven feet.
Starting point is 00:18:19 So very good. I'm about when he stands on Papa John pizza boxes. How tall is he then? Then he's seven two. Right. Exactly. Let's see. Brian, you selected Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. He was in that movie, right?
Starting point is 00:18:32 He was in that space jam? No, it's not space. Was he in space jam? No, he was in the second one. Well, he's in an airplane for sure. I don't know about space jam. Oh, yeah, he's definitely an airplane. Oh, yeah, he might have been too old for. He beat up Bruce Lee one time.
Starting point is 00:18:43 Oh, yeah, he did. Yes, that's right. All right. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, he's an inch taller than Shaquille O'Neal. He's seven foot two. Well, I screwed up then. Oh, I guess so. I guess that kind of revealed.
Starting point is 00:18:56 Yeah. And I wanted to hit, and I meant it. I clicked on Yao, but I didn't click on the stupid. Oh, really? Well, if you would have clicked on Yale, like Scott, he would have clicked on, yeah, Scott did click on Yale, maybe, who is a seven foot six inch tall dude. He's huge. He's huge. And Bill Russell, only six nine.
Starting point is 00:19:16 I thought Bill Russell. He's actually the shortest one in this list. Tim Duncan is 611, Moses smaller 610. And to call somebody who's 6'9. And the shortest one on the list is pretty funny. Even like the tiniest guards in the NBA are still like 6, 3, 6.4. Yeah, yeah. So weird.
Starting point is 00:19:36 You see him out on the corner. You're like that, that little tiny guy running around. And you're like, no, in real life, he would destroy you. It's crazy. So, Brian, getting three points for that one for Kareem and Shaquille. But we got one more question left. Again, something that I think you guys know a lot about is a botany. Botany Bay.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Botany Bay. trees specifically bark which of these things were originally made from bark from tree bark aspirin cinnamon quinine cloves cumin and ibuprofen i thought you i thought you said aspen at first but you said aspirin all right asapin aspin aspirin now that i'm looking at aspirin it looks like aspirin aspirin aspirin i'm aspiring to be equineineine I don't even know what quinine is. I hear it, but I don't know what it is. I'll tell you, it won't help you, but it's the,
Starting point is 00:20:30 it's what gives tonic water its flavor. And it's, um, um, um, like used to, to treat scurvy, I guess is the, the whole thing. Okay. So let's see. I mean, I have to do something. I can't just do one. Yeah, you need, you need, you definitely need, uh, to try and either go for the, go for the tie.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Go for, go for the win. I'm going for the tie because I just don't feel good Oh quinine for malaria that's right Oh that's what it was also for I thought it was also for scurvy though like that's why you had British people on ships eating a lot of limes getting the nickname limey because they were This scurvy it's scurvy to cure the scurvy citrus yeah the citrus to cure the scurvy now that you say that vitamin C vitamin C for scurvy for scurvy That's why you have the lime to the gin and tonic.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Okay. What about the coconut? Why do you do it there? Then you drink it all up because the doctor, because you call the doctor woke him up, said, Doctor, is there nothing I can take? I said, doctor, to relieve this tummy. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:21:44 I think we're locked. Can we lock? Ask your grandparents, kids. You guys are both locked in. Let's start with one you said together. Cinnamon. Cinnamon, absolutely. Didn't mind.
Starting point is 00:21:55 originally came from tree bark yeah yeah but probably still do yeah yeah they come yeah but say because you can if you ever if you were having your real cinnamon you can you can yeah oh really oh that's kind of cool i think i think they may do something for mass production that's a little different oh i'm sure they definitely do something else now it's all commercial commercially created cinnamon big cinnamon uh let's go to let's go to let's go to the right side and choose ibuprofen uh-oh bryan selected ibuprofen i know there is some kind of pain medicine made from tree bark but i can't remember there is yes and ibuprofen is not it uh it's aspirin shit unfortunately it was all the left side this time
Starting point is 00:22:41 aspirin cinnamon and quinine uh were all created originally from tree bark cloves cumin and ibuprofen it's like a sea or something isn't it cumulves are definitely that's a that's like a yeah clothes are a seed they're like a little um yeah Remember in high school A bunch of kids were way into clove smoking That was a thing Coombin was my least favorite spice girl But congratulations going to
Starting point is 00:23:05 Brian he He knew his NBA stars Or at least knew too Did you not like her way Did you not like cumin Because some people would just call her coming Is that why? I'm just saying
Starting point is 00:23:18 Yes she was the Somebody called me for up the crime dog Yikes Coming spice girl Anyway Boy, there were like four jokes That I had right after I said that That I said, nope, can't do that one

But also Al-Kabab is adding the thing that's going to keep track of all the games you guys play. Oh, what about? And viewed.

When the walls fell, so did these prizes right into your lap. Sid Meyers Civilization 5 complete. and hotel renovators. So first, build your civilization and then add a hotel to it. Yeah, I did that.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I played through that entire hotel renovator game. It's very good. It's really good. Yeah, it's like house flipper except a hotel. It's really fun. Oh, nice. All right. But don't worry, Luke Johnson, you're getting something too.

Yeah, real good prizes today. and you'll see them in your DMs over there, your private messages over there on the Patreon. So watch for that. Coming up after the show. Now, before Brian leaves,
Starting point is 00:24:59 I'm going to relaunch the very, very kind Kevin, AKA I Corps in the chat room last week, gifted something from the TMS merch store to a lucky winner. That lucky winner didn't, couldn't figure out how to use this account. So we're going to redo it. And we'll do it right now because we got a couple minutes. I'm going to do it right now.
Starting point is 00:25:20 I'm going to hit this redo the giveaway. This is for I don't like bees knitted beanie hat. Ah, what, $25 value? Yeah. Almost through that in my car. I was getting the film sack sweatshirt. Sorry, 3420, actually. It's a nice one.
Starting point is 00:25:38 It's ribbed, they say, which is, you know. Ooh, it's a nice one. Rib knit, whatever that is. But anyway, here it is. I'm going to go ahead and run the giveaway in the chat. And let's see how this works. So Twitch, okay. Oh, okay, select the giveaway you want to redo.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Existing winners will longer be able to redeem it. Redo giveaway. Here we go. Chat, you should see a thing. Yep, there it is. You got to enter to win. So you got to use, ignore all those comma things. Something's wrong with Twitch and. Anyway, you got type bang, enter.

There you go. Perfect. Luke is not entering. That is correct. Luke, you are not. Probably good idea, dude. Anyway, that'll pop here in a minute. Brian Dunaway, is there anything going on in your life that you want to mention? I know we got stuff coming up Wednesday, but, you know. Yeah, I know. Yeah, yesterday you popped in for a minute. We were streaming and we were playing. I was hoping you hang around long enough
Starting point is 00:26:54 to watch me play with that new koala pad that I picked up for the Commodore 64. When I say new, I mean from 1982. And when I say, good drawing, I mean, what a struggle. But it was a lot of fun. We checked it out. Yeah, no, that's awesome. I want
Starting point is 00:27:10 to, I was going to pull up an image you sent me and I can't pull it up fast enough. But yeah, Dunaway has always got his fingers in something old. And, uh, that's right. That's just nice. It's nice. Nice. Again, about eight jokes flew by and I'm not going to touch any of them. It's nice. I like it. Uh, Robtimus prime. Congratulations. Oh, I won. Isn't that, uh, Mr. 9 of 12? Oh, I think that is Rob. Yeah. Yeah. That's great. He deserves it. Rob, uh, that it put up there on the fourth wall, uh, bot. And it'll let you do what you got to do. And it'll be yours. Rob's got a cold head. He'd love this. Yeah. You guys all down there in the south right now are having cold heads.
Starting point is 00:27:46 So get her done. But warm hearts. Yeah. And hot farts. Warm hearts and hot farts. Hey, Brian Dunaway having you here as a treat, kiss our butts. All right, he's out of here. He's gone.
Starting point is 00:27:59 We now turn our minds and our hearts to calling Nicole. That's right. Who was not yet. I was going to say, we didn't give her the usual like eight reminders. Yeah, I was going to say she usually, I mean, by now should probably have it, but I'm going to give it to her again anyway. So let's go. let's just do that. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:28:17 All right, Nicole, hop into this link here. Ready for you. I'll say for you when you are. All right, we will watch for that. I'll even turn on a little notifying sound, so when I hear her pop in, I'll know. Cool. In the meantime, there is a little
Starting point is 00:28:37 promo I was going to do later. I'll do it now since we have the time. It's a little bit of a schedule thing. Starting up the Frog Pants Adventure Club streams again, but it's going to be a little bit different. So I used to do this thing called the Adventure Club and it was kind of a mix of thing sometimes I would draw. Sometimes I would
Starting point is 00:28:52 watch something. Sometimes I would play a game like different stuff. Think of it as like Frog Pants plays but more than just that. I've been planning this for a while, finally zeroed in on what I want to do with it and it's basically game streams, Q&A's occasional
Starting point is 00:29:08 interviews, prizes, digital and physical nudity, just kidding, there's no nudity. Bringing it back though and it starts today, 4 to 6 p.m. It's a two-hour stream. This is a live thing. This is not like a new podcast or anything. Just live stream. It'll be 4 to 6 Monday, Tuesday, or as I wrote, Toot. Toot. Monday, Toot, and Fry. But I will still be on Thursday. That's how I spend every afternoon. A mun-toot and fry. Yeah, Mont-Tut and Fry. But then five to seven on Thursday after a record. So they will happen just about every day. The weekends,
Starting point is 00:29:43 I'm trying to keep untouched because I kind of have a family. family time. But I'm looking forward to it. So Twitch.tv slash frogpants starting tonight 4 p.m. Check it out. Very cool. All right. Nicole's still not here. So we're going to get started. All right. Sounds good. She joins. She joins. Here's your intro. Where the hell? I'm all over the place. Here we go. Let's do this one. Nope. Not that one. This, nope. Where is it? Well, what do you recommend? Yes, the familiar song that intros this particular segment. We call it recommendals, stuff we've seen on streaming services that we think you might like to.
Starting point is 00:30:20 And we have a tradition here where Brian Ibbett begins the proceedings with his clip. That's right. A little setup on this one. Tina and I are going through all the best picture nominees. We still have two left, but this was one that was easy for us to access and watch last week. And I had lower expectations just because of the sub-exemptions. just because of the subject matter going into it. And I came out saying I loved it.
Starting point is 00:30:50 Oh my gosh. I'm so excited to hear this. It's not my favorite of the 10, but I can absolutely see why it's up among the 10 for sure. All right. Let's go ahead and get to the clip. You might hear a couple recognizable voices. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:31:03 The problem is it's not just a driver. It's a car. I followed your season, Rubin. Shitbox is being kind. I knew you were watching. What if I told you we'd get an upgrade package this weekend, six months in development? Rubin.
Starting point is 00:31:16 No, no, no. Wait, I just need one of my cards across the finish line first. One. I love you. I'm not going back. Okay. This is a first-class ticket to London.
Starting point is 00:31:30 Oh, my God. First class. I'm offering you an open seat in Formula One. The only place you could say for one day, if you win, you are the absolute best in the world. Good see you, Amigo. All right, sweetie, here you go.
Starting point is 00:31:50 Thank you. Hey, let me ask you something. A close friend of years made you an offer that was 100% positively too good to be true. What do you do? Well, how much are we talking? Not about the money. So what is it about? I smell some Brad Pitt in that clip.
Starting point is 00:32:18 You do. that's uh that's the right at the center of the brad is the brad pit you heard that and you heard the uh the haviar bardem in there as well yeah um this is a movie called f1 or in some places it's called f1 the movie don't know why i need that little reminder that it's because there's not an f1 the series or i guess there's an f1 the video game probably there are some video games and there is obviously there's the event but are there people confused that a movie maybe maybe maybe but uh this this this thing is got best picture nominee is also nominated for three other categories in the at the academy awards but this is really good this is as you would
Starting point is 00:32:56 expect it is a movie about racing about f1 racing and the the different uh races in the series in the f1 series and um brad pit is this you know former uh 30 year absent uh driver who's really, really good that gets brought back in for one more time kind of thing. A little tropey there, but it really works. And he's, um, uh, he's, uh, he's, uh, he's got the talent. But he's also kind of a little cocky as you expect. It's a Brad Pitt character. So there's, there's some cockiness, but it's all, you know, you kind of see.
Starting point is 00:33:42 All right. It's not just cockiness. It's kind of like a, uh, uh, he, he, he doesn't. have the chops to back it up. He's got the goods. He's got the goods, exactly. You've also got Carrie Condon in here. Who that was at the end there? Who was that talking at the end of the oh that was just a waitress oh okay at the restaurant but she was Carrie Condon was better call Saul she was ermine trout's daughter
Starting point is 00:34:07 and better call so in another of the nominees train dreams and T and they are both like watching this going my god she's so familiar and we had watched train dreams like two days earlier but she had an american accent that she had a real british accent in f1 so it for whatever reason completely threw us wow is there are two very very different characters um but it is it's one of these movies where you know how you learned a lot about uh nine ball when you watch the color of money or you learn a lot about you know these other things you learn a lot about f1 and it's a lot it's it's kind of some some fascinating stuff about the kind of tires he use and why they do that first lap around the track and placement and
Starting point is 00:34:55 what the you know the the pit stops kind of what how those figure into things and how accidents and and debris on the field figure into things and um it's pretty easy to say if you liked ford versus Ferrari from a couple of years ago Ford v Ferrari Ford V. Ferrari for the for yes Ford V Ferrari. Yeah, I almost click play on that this week. It's funny you should mention that because I saw it. Ford v. Yeah, it was on HBO and I'd never seen it. And I thought, oh, really?
Starting point is 00:35:23 Okay, I was just if you like that, then you'd like this. But I think you'd like both of them. Yeah. You don't have to, you don't have to be a racing fan at all to love this. It is, you know, in its heart, it is a character movie. It's about the character of Brad Pitt. It's about the character of Javier Bardem and the characters of all the other people involved in this racing, this racing team.
Starting point is 00:35:46 I mean, the best sports movies, and I would think, I mean, this is a sport. It's a different kind of sport. But the best sports movies are always really good at not making it so opaque with the sports of it and the technical stuff of it, but just really bringing out character and stuff. I'm happy to hear this. Yeah. You don't have to know about football to watch the longest yard. You don't have to know basketball to watch Hoosiers. You know, you just basically have to, you have to know that basketball exists.
Starting point is 00:36:12 Right. Football exists. Right. Baseball exists to watch field of dreams. stuff like that. Yeah. Now, this is really,
Starting point is 00:36:18 really good. It produced by Jerry Breckheimer. So there's a little bit of that in there. A little bit of Breckheimerness. Is this the dude that directed Maverick, Top Gun Maverick, right? I think. Joseph Kaczynski.
Starting point is 00:36:33 I think you're right. Yeah, he directed Maverick. And I say Maverick. Freaking a miracle that it worked. I love the Maverick. It was so good. Tron Legacy, Only the Brave, Oblivion. Oh, this guy made legacy?
Starting point is 00:36:48 Holy shit. Yeah. Yeah. Also did some CGI commercials like Starry Night for Halo 3, the Mad World commercial for Gears of War, if you remember that one. That was cool. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:00 So, I mean, he's got some good directing chops. This is definitely going to be his, you know, his biggest thing to date just because of the attention that the, well, I guess Top Gun Maverick also had a nomination. Yeah, it was a big whip during that year for sure. So. Although, that got delayed like hell because of the pandemic, I think. It did.
Starting point is 00:37:20 Yeah. Yeah. Anyway. Anyway, this is, it's great. It's F1, the movie. It is on Apple TV. Absolutely worth,
Starting point is 00:37:30 if you don't have Apple TV. I mean, come on. How are you watching Severance? How are you watching? Silo? How are you watching all these amazing shows shrinking? No.
Starting point is 00:37:41 So how are you not watching these things? I say this without any irony. the best, the single best streaming service when it comes to there being no duds. Yeah. Like there's less is more over there because it's not like a billion things coming out every week like Netflix or something. But the quality to quantity ratio, sorry, Apple's just killing it with it.
Starting point is 00:38:03 It's so good. And I know they're losing money hand over for fist. It's fine. They got like a couple of, not terabytes. What's the term for money? They had like $2 trillion. market cap. They'll be fine. They can keep bleeding money. But my gosh, these shows and these movies. The content that they put out is always really good. Invasion that I've talked about on
Starting point is 00:38:25 here. Pluribus, all that. Slow horses. Pluribus. Yeah. It's all really, really good. Yeah. Name a bad Apple TV production. I don't think it can be done. You can't do it. It's impossible. Anyway, so there you go. It's F1. Go watch it. Enjoy it. And it's absolutely worth checking out. Nice. Have we gotten a Nicole yet? We have not gotten a Nicole yet. No, Nicole yet. Nope. Tell me about yours, Scott. I've pinged her and she hasn't answered. She may have forgotten. Who knows? Did you text her as well? I did. Okay. I was going to say I could do that while you talk. Yeah, I did that and I did the thing and the thing. She probably had something important come up today, so that's all right. Yeah. And she may still pop in. We'll see. And we may still get her, of course. Yes. All right. Here's what I watched.
Starting point is 00:39:09 Now, I'm going to play this because it's part of the trailer that came with it. And people are going to be slightly annoyed with it in the same way that I am because I don't like how trailers are made these days, especially for documentaries. They all follow the same template and they kind of piss me off. And you'll just hear the structure and you'll understand what I'm talking about. But underneath it lies a very interesting story that is specifically interesting to me and anyone who lives lived in Utah in the early 2000s. I'll explain when I get to the other side. So here it is right here. Elizabeth Smart was a 14-year-old girl.
Starting point is 00:39:42 The family said she'd been taken from her bedroom in the middle of the night. I saw this cut screen and the window was wide open. My wife screamed, call 911. Elizabeth was living a very normal wife in a very nice neighborhood. Our community had mobilized. Everybody was willing to just drop what they were doing and search. We love you. We want you to come home safely to us.
Starting point is 00:40:12 This case captivated the nation. There was a sense of, is it the family? Could he be involved? My wife said law enforcement. Don't believe that you're telling the truth. I had nothing to do with this. So you see what I'm saying about the structure of these things. Yeah, it's sensationalized a lot of,
Starting point is 00:40:32 and then suddenly boo, and then he says something shocking. Yeah. It's like, come on, guys. You don't have to do this. So that's my message to the documentary creators of the world. Or maybe it's just the trailer makers of the world. Quit doing that because it's dumb. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Anyway, I think this is enough of an interesting topic. It would have drawn people into it without all your nonsense. But the documentary itself is pretty good. It's a pretty accurate retelling of everything that happened to her. And she is in this and talks a ton about it. She's fascinating because if you've heard her talk any time in her adult life, which she does quite a bit. She's a huge advocate for abuse survivors
Starting point is 00:41:13 and all this stuff. And she does TED talks and all this. She's extremely articulate. She is very, very smart. Not just because her last name is smart. She's really inspirational in terms of what she went through versus what she's doing now and how she was able to overcome all that.
Starting point is 00:41:34 And it's gnarly what she had to overcome. And this thing covers the end. entire so it's a single film this isn't a series or anything it's on netflix i should say the name it's called kidnapped colon the elizabeth smart story um i think is that the full title i should look that up just to make sure that quick tms is right but anyway um it it is it's about an hour and a half or something and uh the most interesting parts are her retelling a lot of stuff her sister and her involvement because at one point she was the only witness they had and she was only nine because this dude broke into their window took her sister in the night and he said a couple of
Starting point is 00:42:14 things and it made the nine-year-old who was frozen with fear the name or the voice was familiar and turns out she's crucial to how this all panned out in the end wow it's really wild and there was you know a lot of accusations against the dad because he kind of acted a little weird um on the one hand people are like well he just like his emotions are like kind of overwrought and strange and it so gets a little bit into society's inability to get past our biases and really what's going on is not what we think it's going on. We tend to blow things up or or twist truths or whatever. So there's a little bit of that in there because he had nothing to do with it. It does turn out that he was a lot of people. So I think he's a closeted gay man. And he was in 2019. He came out as gay and divorced his wife.
Starting point is 00:42:59 It's not just you thinking that. No, you guys are right on that one. But anyway, it's really, really good and they go through all they've all these police people that were involved in the case they all come back to talk about it it's one of those very thorough documentaries um i just wish like there's a scene okay so this goes with the sensational stuff because most of the time it's pretty straightforward i'm telling you what's happening here's what happened here's when it happened here's the guy talked to actual guy talks about what he saw all these things happen but then they'll go a scene where she's talking about how she had to think on her feet during a situation whether she was going to say anything and then maybe get rescued or if she
Starting point is 00:43:40 didn't get rescued this meant she was going to be beaten and maybe killed and so it was like this really hard decision point for her while she was kidnapped and what they do to create tension there is they create a scene where a camera and a bunch of lighting zooms
Starting point is 00:43:56 around her a bunch of times in this interview chair and her eyes are closed so she's just like sitting like this and it's getting the The shadows light around her. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:44:09 You are picturing exactly what they did. Yeah. And I just went, you don't need to. Why, exactly. It's a good story. Let it cook. Yeah. Be what it's going to be and quit it.
Starting point is 00:44:21 But whatever. I mean, I realize that this is a thing and some people have to have their attention grabbed. Whatever. Yeah, sure. But overall, I thought it was pretty good. Grab them by the attention. This was like a really like,
Starting point is 00:44:34 massive story here locally like the John Bonnet stuff in Colorado, that level of, of, of, um, interest. Also, blame the dad. Yeah, also dad blaming. You always blame the dads. It's how,
Starting point is 00:44:46 always blame the dad. It's how, yeah, exactly. Um, I guess they never did find out what happened to her though, right? Was there, never did.
Starting point is 00:44:51 That's awful. And I think both mom and dad are dead now. Like, I think the dad definitely did. I don't know about the mom. I, you know better than me. It feels like that would have made news for sure in,
Starting point is 00:45:02 in Colorado. But this thing took off. big and it was so all over the news nationally and it just became this like insane story. And she's really amazing. That's my big takeaway is that Elizabeth Smart is she has a built-in wisdom and an ability to. And she's not like faking it. She's like, I have terrible days. Sure. Terrible, terrible days. But I have some pretty great days because I have decided this thing is not going to control my life. And then she talks about her family. She has little kids now and her husband she loves. And like everything's going great in her life. But this is always just going to be this thing.
Starting point is 00:45:43 So she uses that energy to go out and advocate for other victims. Oh, that's cool. It's really good. So I recommend checking it out, even if it's just for that. Let me get the actual title. I'm annoyed that I don't know it. I'll use that for the Elizabeth Smart Documentary is called. Yeah. Uh, it. Here we go. It's why is it? Okay, here we go.
Starting point is 00:46:12 Nope. Okay, so it is kidnapped colon. Elizabeth Smart. That's it. That's it. That was easy. I could have figured it out. That's all right.
Starting point is 00:46:24 And you said it's on Netflix. Netflix. Netflix. So Netflix is where you go. There's the cover. And it's really quite good. It says this. a Benedict Sanderson guy directed it, but I swear
Starting point is 00:46:36 it was a lady. But what do I know? I don't know if it. You know, you're people going to really like is his older brother Tom smart, the dad, the dad's brother, so her uncle. That guy's a badass. Really? Yeah. People thought he was like, they were, they suspected him for a while because he was
Starting point is 00:46:57 terrible on camera. And this is another example of like, we put people on camera. They're not natural there. They just say things. They don't mean to it. It's emotions are high and they really, they get into that. You read so much into it when it's actually just nerves and people can be nervous without being guilty. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Yeah, it's wild to watch. What's the other guy who's in this? Man, they give a credit to the kidnapper. That's insane. I mean, it makes sense. I guess you have to put everybody in it. Well, yeah, but still. That guy's a legitimate, thousand percent psychopath wingwong.
Starting point is 00:47:30 One of the weirdest dudes. Just a complete nutbag that guy. I love the term. Poor Pathwing one. Horrible man. Just terrible. All right. That's it for that.
Starting point is 00:47:43 No Nicole. I think we are safe to move forward. Well, we could eat an Oreo. Oh, we could. We haven't done that in a bit. We still have Oreos. Why don't we do that? Let's go with, let's do that.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Where's my thing? Would you not eat my pants? Ah! Which ones have we not done? I don't even know. Lots. We haven't done the macha. The macho would be a good one. All right, let's do the macha. Do the macha. Do the matcha.
Starting point is 00:48:12 That's great. There it is. Gleap and peach. That is glape and peach. So there's been some confusion about the origin of all this. And I think the conclusion was this is Japanese, but it's a weird. I don't know what the deal was. I can't remember what people decided. The Discord had a whole thing. about it. I didn't pay attention.
Starting point is 00:48:35 Yeah. Okay. Anyway, Macha. You ready for this? A translator and it looked like, you know, they said here's what it translated to in Japanese. Yeah, I think it's Japanese. Ow, come on. Why are my fingers so dainty here?
Starting point is 00:48:51 Oh, look. It's got a little dainty fingers. I got that wee fingers, yeah. Oh. I know. It's another one with a great whiff. Oh, my gosh, the smell. smell that smell remember that song terrible song so it's kind of green
Starting point is 00:49:09 it doesn't look terrible no but macha color green it's so broken mine's pretty it's so broken inside mine's missing a piece a little chip but see the combination of matcha and chocolate should be amazing we're good to find out here we go more pieces breaking off oh I don't know
Starting point is 00:49:33 hmm Okay, I'm okay with it now. The initial hits a little weird. Mm-hmm. Maybe it's still a little weird. I'm fine with this. I'm getting a little bit of dirt tea in there. You know, but you like machete.
Starting point is 00:49:52 I do, but it doesn't normally hit me that, like that bite. Interesting. That, uh, bitter bit. This kind of flavor, yeah. I don't know if I like that. All right. I do like a machete though. I am all about this.
Starting point is 00:50:07 This works for me. Well, there you go. See, now we finally have one that there's some controversy. Usually they're just all good. Yeah, usually we both are like, oh, but sold, it's excellent. And we have a little,
Starting point is 00:50:21 a little tiny bit of difference on this one. Yeah, this one's got a little. So send me the rest of yours, Scott, and I'll eat them here. All right, sure. I'm sure, Carter, and, yeah, I'm sure Nick, when he comes over, He won't take any of these.
Starting point is 00:50:36 I'm sure Carter doesn't want me. I'm sure it'll all be fine. I'll be fine. No, it's really good. Very nice. Hey, look what we got here. An email. This is a text.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Is it? This is about the jugs of P? It is a text. An anonymous textor says, about the jugs of P. He says 6.7 is 42 minus, or sorry, 42 minus greater than 6 minus? No, he's just saying 6 times 7 is 42. Oh, I'm bit.
Starting point is 00:51:03 So he's saying six, seven is the ultimate answer to everything. Yeah, because this is the first time I've ever heard this, but if you take six seven, or you take six and times it by seven, you get 42. Yeah. Never even thought of it before. So actually, I think it's pretty clever. Which is funny because, you know,
Starting point is 00:51:17 deep thought says, you never thought to ask the question. All right, what is the ultimate question? What is six times seven? Yeah. Eventually find out. And so, I mean, even Douglas Adams knew six, seven, long before the kids knew it.
Starting point is 00:51:33 That's right. Now, before you get too judgmental out there, Van had his seventh birthday on Saturday. And we went over there and had a big party. And he got a 6-7 hat. He got a 6-7 shirt. And he got 6-7 and something else. Because he went from 6 to 7. Exactly. With me, he thinks, because he's also real big on the dumb meme because all the kids are. Of course. He thinks that his birthday is now the perfect personification of 6-7. So that's great. I'm fine with it in his case. Yep, yep. Let him have it. And the more we talk about it, the sooner it will die.
Starting point is 00:52:07 That's right. All the olds, let's go. Exactly. Let's bury this shit. We have the power. Thomas from Missouri Road end says, Hey, Scott and Brian, I watched Kumal. Kamal, I never say it right, Nunjani. Yeah, Kamal Nunjani.
Starting point is 00:52:22 Great comedian, actor, all that. A little weird in Fallout. I'm just going to put it in there. Oh, yeah. A little weird in the Eternals, too. But good in the Eternals. Yeah. I don't know how I feel about the fallout one.
Starting point is 00:52:32 It's still kind of bugging me, but whatever. It's fine. I just watched Kamal Njani's new Hulu special Night Thoughts, and it was great. Really funny, actually touching, but the reason I'm telling you about this is at about 30 minutes in, he talks about him going to therapy. Maybe Wendy might be interested in his thoughts on therapy. Always love the show, though, and could you play a Daryl clip? I miss the curmudgeon.
Starting point is 00:52:54 Well, we all miss him. It'll be good to record a clip of Camille Donjani talking about that. and get it to Wendy and then we'll open Thursday's thing with it and see if there's stuff to talk about. Oh, yeah, I wouldn't mind. I wouldn't mind, obviously, for him to reach out like this, it must mean something. And he's really good. I like him a lot. Yeah, I like him too.
Starting point is 00:53:17 He's very funny. I'm going to play, here's a Darrell, random Darrell. It's like somebody peed in a pineapple. All right. There you go. Because he used to help us with the food testing, remember? Yeah, that's right. right i mean he we did uh all sorts of food testing with darrell like the the scorpion lollipops
Starting point is 00:53:36 and the uh i think he said oh i think i got a bit of tail in that bite or something like that i can't remember what he what he said but yeah somebody says then johnny's coming on taskmaster who said that oh red fraggle and red fragel q star yeah yeah next season they've already had uh madzukas uh i'm i am three seasons behind on my taskmaster viewing and i need need to, here's the problem, is that the only way I can watch it upstairs with Tina on the TV is through the YouTube app. And the YouTube app doesn't, obviously doesn't put things onto that little strip on Apple TV that says, here are the next things for you to watch that's like, oh, there's a new season of Dark Winds,
Starting point is 00:54:20 oh, there's a new season of the Great, et cetera. They really should do that, by the way. They really should. And Netflix isn't part of that either. Netflix is the big holdout like, no, we don't want any of that integration. shit. So when new stuff happens over there, we have to open those apps and then
Starting point is 00:54:37 play it from their first world problems. I know, but still. Yeah. Roku has the same problem, by the way. Roku's got a ton of that integration on the Roku players. It works extremely well. Works like the Apple one. I would argue actually a little snappier. But they can't do Netflix searches and they can't do YouTube on there.
Starting point is 00:54:56 So that's a YouTube and the Netflix thing where I think what this means is Netflix and YouTube both collectively know that they're big enough they don't have to. Yeah. It's just going to annoy us, but they're still Netflix, right? It's like, I think there's some of that going on. It's power play. Gotcha. And no, by the way, there's not a new season of the Great Serene.
Starting point is 00:55:19 The third season was the last season. But I'm just now starting the third season of the Great. Oh, it's such a good show. It's so good, yeah. We loved the great. Yeah, I can see why. I mean, you know, El Fanning's fantastic. Nicholas Holt, of course, a longtime favorite here.
Starting point is 00:55:36 Everybody on that show is so freaking good. Yeah, nobody's bad. It's legitimately funny when it needs to be. Yeah. It's great. Yeah. Plus, El Fanning. She's the fanning of, I'm the fanning.
Starting point is 00:55:50 I think she's the best fanning. I like Dakota fanning a lot. I like Dakota. She's great, but I think I like Elmore as far as like a range. Yeah, it feels like Dakota may be peaked. younger as an actor, I'm saying. And L. Fanning wasn't as interesting as a kid actor. Super 8 pretty good.
Starting point is 00:56:06 But then later, I don't know, she's obviously going places. Oscars and whatnot. You know? Golden Globidge. I like her a lot. She's great. Plus, she just seems really nice and you don't want to just kind of want to protect her. Great and freaking predator
Starting point is 00:56:21 Badlands. She's great. That's out on Hulu now. I've got to watch that again. She's got good nerd cred. Yeah. And she's in video game. She's in that, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:32 The new Death Stranding. She's all up in that. Oh, really? Oh, cool. It's all very weird, of course, because that game is weird. Anyway, well, there you have it. Let's remind you, folks, that at the end of the show today, you will get a classic mashup.
Starting point is 00:56:47 And this one's called the water is acid. From 2019. SBSA. Scott, Brian, say. Anything? Yeah. What was that? Shit, I don't remember all these acronyms.
Starting point is 00:57:00 Yeah, I can't remember. I know we had a legend somewhere, but I can't find it. 2019, though, this pre-pandemic business, man. Everything tastes a little different when you go back to 2019. Totally does. So you guys all hear that in post. Enjoy. And that's about it.
Starting point is 00:57:18 The Monday show is today, 1 p.m. normal stuff for me and Carter. So be here for that. And like I mentioned earlier, check out the Adventure Club tonight at 4 p.m. Mountain Time. Are you going to be watching something? You'd be playing a game. Do you know yet?
Starting point is 00:57:32 Yeah, I got a couple things lined up. One of them is, let's see, what did I decide on? Last night it was kind of a blur. Oh, there it is. Actually, I have notes for this now. Oh, I got a whole thing about, I'm going to do some discussion about the dispatch censorship on Switch 2. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:49 Yeah, the little black boxes and the muting. Yeah, it's really dumb. Yeah. I, you know, I'm almost thinking maybe I'll, Because I've been so bad about finishing up Expedition 33 and then dispatches next. Maybe I just jump right to dispatch. But I don't know. So good.
Starting point is 00:58:06 I just need to carve out time for Expedition, for video games as a whole. In general, yeah. The same problem. I like when I talk about them so much, I run out of time to play them. Sure. Yeah, that game is really, really amazing. But what I'm going to do tonight is talk about other times in game history where, big censorship walked in and like blocked everything.
Starting point is 00:58:31 So you'll hear everything about the stuff you forgot about like the San Andreas hot coffee mod, the Wolfenstein series getting rid of all the swastikas and stuff. Yeah. Carmageddon changing people to zombies. There's all kinds of great stories. Funny. Yeah. Anyway, I'll do some giveaways.
Starting point is 00:58:46 I'm going to do a, oh, that's what I was going to do. I'm doing something called retro roulette where I take, I find an old retro game or I find, I have a whole pile of them and basically do roulette. And wherever the number lands, that's the game. I'll play even if it's shit. Oh, that's cool. Yeah, so that'll be fun. Very cool.
Starting point is 00:59:03 Anyway, be there. Check it out, 4 p.m. Mountain Time. Brian, I think we're done. You got anything else we got going on? Yeah, I'm going to be cleaning up a big pile of boxes off the floor that I threw over there during my opening talk about the three printed inserts and all those boxes are all over the floor. So I have to do that. And then let's see, what do we got?
Starting point is 00:59:25 We've got new daily music headlines just went up for today, talking about the Grammys and all the winners. A new episode of Soundography. Finally, Depeche Mode goes up tomorrow. And I think that's it. Nice. Depeche Mode, man. I've been looking forward to that one. Yeah, it's going to be a good one.
Starting point is 00:59:43 That's going to be great. Cool. Well, let's get out of here with a song of your choosing or maybe somebody requested it. I don't know. Derek did request it. He said, hey, Brian and Scott, I'm turning 41 on February 1st, which was yesterday. in honor of this completely uneventful age. Could you please play the most cursed cover that you have?
Starting point is 01:00:03 Something that is so bad that it's hopefully good. As well, could you please play three random sound clips from 2019? Thanks, and shove the fro yo into your mouth, Derek. All right. That's great. Shep the fro you into your mouth. Love it. What is that from?
Starting point is 01:00:23 Well, love the show, though. Yeah, no, but it's, okay. I don't think, yeah, just shove the fruit and then parentheses into your mouth. Sometimes it's best not to dig too deep and figure out what you're on with people. You know, just let it ride. Right, just, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:00:39 Sometimes we want to know this, sometimes we don't. Do you have three sound clips from 2019? I do. I was looking here. We got a hard part is how this stuff filters. So let's see, 2019. Oh, you know what? I actually separated these by here.
Starting point is 01:00:54 Oh, look at me thinking ahead. Look at you. All right. Here are three randos. Okay. One, two, and then let's pick a third. We'll do that one. Okay, here's number one.
Starting point is 01:01:08 Now is the time for us to control the mining and commerce network. Okay. Don't know what that is. Here's another one. Crisp niblets corn on the same fork. All right. And then finally, you cannot negotiate with gravity. Okay.
Starting point is 01:01:23 Oh, wow. Very good. I feel like we. No one sack for a couple of those problems. feel like it yeah i was i've done a pretty good job of i separate film sack but there was one point where i wasn't separating them i just put them all in a big pile the ones i would keep and then i ran why am i doing that that's dumb so i yeah so now they're separate but every once in one one will pop up and i usually go get it so that's awesome yeah all right so derrick wants to hear the most cursed cover that i can think of well
Starting point is 01:01:48 i wrestled with this because um i have covers that are bad and they come from good bands but they're bad. And there's ones I'll never play. You're never going to hear me play Britney Spears cover of Satisfaction or Madonna's cover of American Pie. Those are just bad. There's a punk band from Seattle called The Fastbacks that are always really good, except for their cover of Rocket Man by Elton John. Oh. I thought about that one. But it's really bad. But when you think of bad covers, you think of somebody that we mentioned earlier in the show, near the beginning of the show, Mike Tyson, for the soundtrack to the Hangover 2. He covered a song written by Benny and Bjorn from Abba and performed by Murray Head for the Chess
Starting point is 01:02:35 musical. And it is called One Night in Bangkok. Here is Mike Tyson. He is getting a crimson of the chess world and a show with everything, Philippines, or Hastin, or at this place. Get tired of things among the periods. My kick above the waistline does shine. The more you know, the less you'll go. I was going to smoke some pot, but then I went to jail. I was going to totally smoke this pot, but then I went to jail. Now it's up my nose. Boy, I failed.
Starting point is 01:06:24 Why, hi. They had it all. Just like Boki and McCall. I don't know the book. Starring in her own lead lead shoe. Hello, pregnant. Dismendaria. I ain't got no crystal ball.
Starting point is 01:06:39 I knew I should. I had a billion packets and I pooped it all if I could. You can freeze if you want to. I'm not wearing pants right now. My wiener's hanging out. I want nothing. I want nothing. I want no.
Starting point is 01:06:59 No. Quipro crow. No. Haven't it anymore. Tells Linsky to do the right thing. He just smiled and gave me a Yodomite sandwich. That's what snow is for. Much of it is here.
Starting point is 01:07:14 In good times, in bad times, I'll be on your side forevermore. Wow. You're a cow and I won out of this relationship. No, but that would have been awesome. Yeah. I'm not to give you off. I'm about to let you down. I'm never going to come around.
Starting point is 01:07:31 And I'll hurt you if you do. Ro, row, row your boat. Gently around the fountain. We're detecting a lot of seismic activity. Ruth, get off the mountain. Gently down the lock. Ruth, so help me get your butt out of that cabin and get the hell in the truck. Ro, row, row, your boat gently across the lake.
Starting point is 01:07:52 Ruth, what the hell are you doing? Get back in the boat. The water is acid for freaks' sake. Ro, row, row. Watch out for the helicopter. Thankfully, I swerved. In case you're wondering what happened to Ruth, she got what she deserved. This show is part of the Frog Pants Network.
