Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Snark Tank podcast. It's me. I'm Chris, and I'm joined again by Tom Sweeney.
Starting point is 00:02:04 And Derek's back. He's not dead. Yay. Unfortunately. Clap it up. Clap it up. Yay. God damn.
Starting point is 00:02:10 You didn't get the big sleep. I try. Lord knows I tried. Lord knows. Sometimes I hold my breath all day. And then like, I like, oh man, I finally did it. I passed out. Then I wake up moments later.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Sometimes I hold my breath a lot. I hold my breath for a very long time. And then I dream, real cool dreams. Then I wake up and I get sad and I cry. And then I go back to sleep again and the cycle repeats. Damn. Yes. Is that your existence?
Starting point is 00:02:35 You're constantly suffocating yourself and then hallucinating and waking up being sad and doing it again. Yeah. That's beautiful, man. That's not beautiful. That's poetic. I mean, okay. So, yeah, last time Derek was sick with something. I guess he's not fatally sick because he's here.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Usually it manifests by now. Usually you don't make it. Yeah, I don't have the Rona. I thought I did actually, and I was actually, I wasn't scared for me. I was like, oh, I don't want to, I don't want to be a dick-headed infect other people if I possibly do. have it? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Because it didn't really, I was like, if I have it, dude, if it's my time, it's my time, you know? I say that until I get really sick. I'm like, fuck, man, I do some dumb shit yesterday. That's true. I didn't have to do. That's true. That's true. I don't know how I'd feel if I,
Starting point is 00:03:25 if I actually were terminally ill. I don't know if I'd be freaking out and crying every day or something. But usually it's just the, the mental toughness you're like, before. I don't care, man. If I'm going to be all right. I don't, I want to die. I would definitely be more concerned about feeling like an asshole and getting other people sick. Yeah. Yeah, that would feel, that would be, that would That would be worse to me. That's my main thing. Like, God forbid, I get someone sick and they hug their daughter and then the next, they explode. So.
Starting point is 00:03:50 What if that's how people die from the virus? They explode. Mommy, I feel sick. Blach all over the fucking kitchen. Things are kind of crazy out there. Thanks for your guys' support. It means a lot that people are still subscribing and watching all that shit. I guess you don't really have a bunch of a choice but to watch or listen, but.
Starting point is 00:04:10 But okay, yeah, right? Because, I mean, what else are you going to do, really at this point? Because of the implications, you know? No, I mean, like, you can't, like, you can't do anything. Yeah, you shouldn't be out. If you're someone who's going out right now, don't do that. Stop just going out. Like, you're going to get people sick or yourself sick.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Like, you can only dodge a bullet so many times. You know, it's crazy, though. I've noticed directly, the air here is so much better. California is hilariously. Well, you know what's worse about that? What? The fact that there's more pollen because the air is better. better. That's true. As soon as I step outside every day, I start sneezing and I'm like, shit. I like a fucking, like a weeping bitch because my eyes are all fucking watery and red. Then I'm sneezing all myself. It's not an ideal. I'm like, shit. I'm currently being assaulted by allergies like right now. Physically. It is like the worst possible time for a pandemic. Because everybody is sick at the same time for no, for not the same reasons. Yeah. Yeah. So everyone's freaking out of it. It's, it's a, it's a, it's a weeny time. It's a weenie time. It's a weenie.
Starting point is 00:05:10 It's a weenie of a year so far 2020 has been the worst year I've experienced so far I mean it's not even we're not even halfway done So that's what I said so far It can get worse that's true it could get better though It would only get better if Bernie won but like you know I mean that's not gonna happen I know I know but he knows this so My heart
Starting point is 00:05:31 I freaking had a really fucking sad tweet yesterday and I literally like I hung my head low after I tweeted it I was like god damn get over it no So I feel like we have to address this. Okay. Because I feel like we would have a field day with this. You especially, I know because Sweeney's a Marvel person. And I know that I think you might have even covered this right. You're a comic book nerd too, right?
Starting point is 00:05:54 I may have talked about it in my stream last night. The new Warriors? Yeah, I talked about, I didn't know. I haven't covered it because I honestly thought maybe it was a joke. So this is real. This is, are you aware of this? Wow. I don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I try to stay away from certain things. So there's a lot of, there's a new, I guess, comic line, I guess, called The New Warriors. And they have all these new characters. And they're all very, very cool and modern and hip. Our first character is screen time. Sick. A meme-obsessed super teen whose brain became connected to the internet after becoming exposed to his grandfather's experiment. internet gas.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Sick. Now he can see augmented reality in real-time maps and can instantly Google any fact. I like, I like Sweetie's face right now, but he hasn't even hit the, that's just the tip of the iceberg. Yeah. This is like the least egregious one. Is it going to be binary boy? No, hold on. We're getting to it.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Then we have, so there's screen time. He's got a green color palette. And then we got, I have to put these probably on the thumbnail for this. episode like they're just insane there's snowflake and safe space i did hear about this shit psychic twins all twins are psychic but we're psychic er god fuck god i don't guys i don't really want to talk about this snowflake a cryokinetic can materialize snowflake shaped shuriken projectiles for throwing that's sick safe space can materialize pink force fields but he can't inhabit them himself what so he can't create the safe space yeah he can't be
Starting point is 00:07:45 within the safe that's so fuck ally protection yeah so stupid that's like a fucking dumb jarpy this is something that I feel like I would have made up in like 2016 that's what I'm saying you know what I mean it feels like a joke it does nobody's happy about this I don't people who are like non-binary aren't happy about this because they makes it makes them look stupid it really is just the dumbest. Is that a comic book line? This is, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:08:12 It's just, it's on Marvel's official site. It's the new Warriors. I assume it's a comic book line. So there are moments where Marvel, you know, really, really just like shows the fuck out. Like the new X-Men line by Jonathan Hickman is unbelievable. The new fucking Venom storyline. Venom is like one of the coolest characters in Marvel now, which is unbelievable because
Starting point is 00:08:31 Venom was just kind of just like the shadow Spider-Man. Like, oh, he's just kind of cool because he's edgy Spider-Man. But now he has like one of the greatest. stories going on and then they make shit like that. But I haven't told you about be negative. Don't tell me it. Don't do the. Oh, yeah. A teen, a teen living vampire exposed to Michael Morbius's blood as a child in a rogue but life-saving medical procedure. He still ages like a regular kid, but has all the abilities of Morbius. Okay. He's also obsessed with all the music and attitude of a classic long past decades like the 90s.
Starting point is 00:09:08 and the 2000s. Why did they do this? The attitude of the 2000s. You know, like the attitude era of wrestling. What the hell was the attitude of the 2000s? I don't give a fuck. You know, New Metal, where fucking cut my life in two pieces. You know, that's my last resort.
Starting point is 00:09:26 When I think of the 2000s, I think of like, this is a story of a girl. Like those fucking horrible, like Disney Channel radio. Now, I think Limbiscuit. No human contact, you know. It's just one of those days I think of that That's 2000s
Starting point is 00:09:41 Yeah that is That's very much so It is 2000s I think of like radio Disney Back to back to back Back to basics Why is that real?
Starting point is 00:09:50 What? They're new warriors Oh my God Is that what you're asking? Yeah This is just You know You gotta keep in touch
Starting point is 00:09:57 That shit's why That shit Isn't weird though All of that shit All of this Social just like say I say you would call it Progressive
Starting point is 00:10:04 Ideologs Like it's the people That are progressive But they're like Ideologs They're the ones that are like all crazy about all that shit. And but, you know, we call them SJWs and stuff. This stuff was disappearing.
Starting point is 00:10:15 This stuff was quieting down. Yeah, it did. But the thing is, it's like, this is still, this is bad now to everybody. Well, see, that's the whole point where it's like, it was quieting down. Why now? Nobody was really talking about it. Yeah, I feel like this almost wouldn't have been cringed at as much, like, for, probably by the same people who were cringing at it always.
Starting point is 00:10:33 But, like, definitely, like, not by the majority of people. I feel like the majority of people, I think in, like, 2016, would probably be like, This is a waste of money. But now it's like I think everybody, even like the people that this is meant to pander to are kind of on the same page. It's like this is just weird. And it comes across as kind of like tokeny almost. And it's like, what are you doing? You haven't thought about, I haven't thought about safe spaces and snowflakes as a pejorative.
Starting point is 00:10:54 I haven't thought about that in a while. And you got those people. It's been a long time since I've even heard those words. That's what I'm saying. Why would you bring that back up? It's like, oh shit, we all lies on us, I guess. you know, all publicity is good, I guess. It's free marketing, I suppose.
Starting point is 00:11:11 But like, I don't know, man. I'm so unamused. I'm so unamused. I want nothing to do with that. Like, remember they had that run in Marvel where it's like, all right, everything's going to be a little progressive. We're going to have a Lady Thor. We're going to have Iron Man as this 70s black chick.
Starting point is 00:11:28 You know, because she had a fro. You know, like they were doing stuff like that and some people were rolling their eyes. But ultimately, I didn't give a fly. None of that was as cringe as this. Yeah, I was just like, whatever. None of that was even close to as cring as this. In the defense of Lady Thor, is one of the best Thor stories ever, actually.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Yeah, it was not even, we'll see, I wasn't even throwing shade. I was just saying, this is what they were doing. Yeah, I'm not throwing shit. I'm just giving, like, respect to that. Like, Jason Arammy did a fantastic run as, like, a female Thor. Like, Jane Foster did a really good job at Storr. That was a good story. People didn't like it because it was different.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Those people need to fucking kill themselves because, you know, shit has to change because you can't keep writing stories about this strong God, motherfucker swinging a hammer all the time. It gets born eventually. I think the initial problem was that it was just like it's weird for a person who's not Thor to be called Thor. That's true. But Thor isn't a title. It's a name.
Starting point is 00:12:13 That's the thing. But also. Thor is both. That's the problem. It's a title and a name. So it's like it's his name, but also it's a title. I don't know. His name is Thor old and son, right?
Starting point is 00:12:22 Yes. That's his name. But the hammer specifically states that whosoever wields his hammer should have the power of Thor. So if Thor can't wield this hammer, who is Thor? No, no. But that's still somebody else with the power of Thor, though. No, I understand. I understand that.
Starting point is 00:12:37 But the thing is that if the thing is the idea is that, like, if I can't, if I can't, if I, if I, if I have my Kingston pants on, right? And I can't put on my Kingston pants. These pants are for Kingston explicitly. What the fucking? What's, what, whose pants are these? Who am I? That is the stupidest analogy I've ever heard. But it's true.
Starting point is 00:12:56 But it's true. Like, if I can't, if I can't pick up or put on my damn pants. If you can't pick up and put on your own pants, you. Your identity stops. No, but if the pants are built for me, then that makes sense. If the pants are built for me, those pants especially built for me,
Starting point is 00:13:12 no matter how much I weigh, no matter how big I am and how small I am, those pants always fit me perfectly. They're magic pants? Yes. Do what the fuck do you think they were, fucking regular denims? Kingston.
Starting point is 00:13:22 So you can, why would your name just not be your name anymore just because you couldn't fit into your fucking pants? I understand that, but my name was, but this thing is bound to my name. But you're saying that like your, Kingston pants, if somebody were to put on Kingston's pants,
Starting point is 00:13:36 who would give them the power of Kingston. Is that what you're saying? No, no, they would be, there are more Kingston than I am Kingston at that moment. Are you insane? But they literally are. But you were Kingston before you had those Kingston pants. No, not exactly. I was, I was, I was, I was, I was, I was just, you know what's happening?
Starting point is 00:13:53 You're just, you're just denying reality just so you can win the argument. No, I'm just defending it. I've just defending it. I got to be, I got to be the other side now. That was the dumbest analogy I think I've ever read. I think it makes sense. I think it makes a whole lot of sense. You are deranged.
Starting point is 00:14:09 We have so many things to get to. God, I regret this tangent entirely. Yeah, too bad. You did this. You started this. I mean, I didn't think it would go to you. Fucking sit in your own pool of blood. The spark tank podcast brought to you by Kingston pants.
Starting point is 00:14:25 By Kingston pants. By my Kingston pants that made of my flesh. What if I... You guys talked about that. What if we did A clothing line of pants with your face all over it Don't do that I might I like it
Starting point is 00:14:40 You're the one who brought it up you did this Sorry I fucking hate you I hate you god damn it I would like a spandex or like the leggings That'd be sick With like my angry face on it Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:14:52 Good Lord So there's a lot There's some stuff that's happened I don't know if it applies to all of us because I know it applies to me I know Gabby's in the other room playing Animal Crossing but Doom Eternal and Animal Crossing are out now
Starting point is 00:15:10 at the perfect time when everybody's like kind of like stapled to their apartments Oh yeah fucking crazy that everybody's just happy now just for a little bit Yeah what are you're getting
Starting point is 00:15:22 I don't think everyone's happy But I think those are both like nine out of tens That came out on the same day Those are definitely the two polar polarized games. Yes, absolutely. Extraordinarily opposite kinds of video games that a lot of people picked up both of them because they need one to be
Starting point is 00:15:38 able to circumvent the anger that comes from with other one. When you can't when you can't build shit, an animal crossing ring, like fuck I'm gonna go kill some fucking demons. When you get overwhelmed killing demons, you're like, you know, I'm gonna go I'm gonna build a little house to because I had to calm down. Yeah, I love it, man. I fucking love it. I don't have either of them yet.
Starting point is 00:15:55 We got some questions about it. Yeah. Now, rip and tear until it is done, also Alex is still a simp asks Jesus Christ How do you guys feel about Doom Eternal and what is your favorite FPS? PSOK Chris we get at Halo is cool Fuck you
Starting point is 00:16:08 Well to be fair My favorite FPS is also Halo actually Doom Eternal is really fucking good Doom Eternal is really really really really Really really stupid good It is without a doubt There's no I have no there's no way If the next Halo comes out this year
Starting point is 00:16:27 There is no way in hell that the next Halo is going to be better in this. No way. Probably not. I mean, especially inconceivable. The given track record. It's just, it was rude. Don't say that about, don't say that about it. It's, it's just too impeccably designed.

Starting point is 00:17:32 law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw Billboard of years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and badder and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call. 24-7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, from thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. Feel like fighting like in a sweaty PVP match. It's insane. For me, what I've seen, what I've seen about Doom Eternal, it looks, it reminds me of a Souls game where there's a way you go about killing people. There is a particular manner in which you defeat people. And I think that's what makes it so cool because Doom one, I played a good amount of Doom one. And the first thing I didn't like about it was, uh, one, 2016, right? Yeah, yeah, sorry, 2016.
Starting point is 00:18:41 And what I didn't like about it was like, first of all, the shotgun was to answer every question. Yeah. Every question was like, oh, man, I'm fucking up shotgun. That's it. Like, I stopped using an assault rifle. I forgot I even had it. I changed weapons by mistake one time. And I was like, oh, shit, that's still there.
Starting point is 00:18:53 That's crazy. And then the other thing about this one is that the design, level, level design-wise, it gives you the ability to be able to completely escape, sprawl the whole entire map in like a moment's notice. It's, it's, it's just well-designed. It's very in-depth design for motion. It's fast. You have a lot of, like, mobility. It feels like Quake 3 Arena, almost, where it's just so
Starting point is 00:19:16 stupid, like, blisteringly fast, and it's just fucking, it's so good. Also, the guns in this game are nuts. I'd recommend it to literally everybody. It's a good game. You should pick it up. What about you, Drick? I think everybody, I think, I think everybody is going to pick it up. I think it's one of those games. I haven't gotten around to it yet because I'm kind of got so much stuff
Starting point is 00:19:34 queued up and I finally jumped on Netflix again to catch up on some stuff. Yeah. And so I'm gonna get to it. And it's one of those things that, you know, I typically don't. It's super rare when I play something day one. When it's like I got to get it immediately because I just, I have, I don't know, I know $60 is actually okay given what, yeah, sometimes, it depends on what it is.
Starting point is 00:19:57 But I still sometimes I'm like, if I don't have to pay $60, you know what I mean? Oh, yeah, there's no reason to. Absolutely, I understand. Like, if I don't have to and it's going to be the same game or possibly even better with patches and stuff, I can just wait just wait just a little, just a little bit. I wish a little bit. It's one of my favorite games, but I wish I didn't buy it immediately because I bought it immediately and I had to just wait until it became amazing. Now it's fantastic. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:21 But it's also one of those, it's a life service games are weird, though, because it's like the whole point is to kind of be there for the whole. thing like you to see things change if you come in at the end it's almost like it's almost like it's almost like coming at the end of a movie where it's like oh look at all the resolutions look at how cool things got without any of the setup i guess i don't know i'd rather just play like a game as complete i agree with you like 100 but i also think it's like with live service stuff it's weird because there's like an element of like there's a whole like fear of missing out with live service games which sucks it's actually the it's actually the worst part about it that's Like, I haven't jumped on, like, the Division 2 came out, like, a while ago, and I actually really liked it.
Starting point is 00:20:58 And then I stopped playing for a while, and then they were like, ah, we rebalance a bunch of shit. And I'm like, well, I don't even remember what I was doing. So I'm certainly not going to continue this. Yeah, for you. But, yeah, man, I don't know. If you have not picked up Doom Eternal yet, you probably should. If you're a fan of shooters, it's probably the best one that we're going to get in a long time, I think, personally. It's really good game.
Starting point is 00:21:18 PeeV.E. Extendis rode in. Black, Goku, Goku, Goku, Black, and Spicolo. I've been. Spickle- I've been playing Who's black Who's Goku? I mean, that's the beauty
Starting point is 00:21:28 of those names Which one do you want to be? I want to be black Goku. I was going to say I'll pick Goku black. Good, okay. All right,
Starting point is 00:21:35 we're in agreement. Thank you. All right, Spickolo continue. I've been playing Animal Crossing New Horizons on my Nintendo Switchtime very much loving the experience
Starting point is 00:21:42 if you all are playing how you're liking it. I am not playing Animal Crossing. Gabby is in literally the other room playing it right now. Gabby is playing copious amounts to Animal Crossing. My girlfriend also,
Starting point is 00:21:51 she's going to hear that's obviously. She cares by the cross more. She cares about me. She's accepted that that's her new life and I'm a old creation. So my DMs are open, I guess, because I've just been abandoned. Yeah. Damn, fun. She's completely enthralled.
Starting point is 00:22:10 She's gone. Yeah. I definitely would choose D-Maternal over people right now. I really, really, really want to buy that game. But I also know I do not have the time to give. I can't give something else my love like that. Animal Crossing? Yeah, I just can't.
Starting point is 00:22:26 The last time I played Animal Crossing for the, I played New Leaf, and I played that game literally every time I was just alone, I played that game for hours. I can never get into him. It's not my cup of tea. Yeah. It's not my cup of tea at all.
Starting point is 00:22:38 I think you just have to try it. You're going to sit down and try and play it, and you'll get into it. I was just talking to my friend yesterday about this, about Animal Crossing, because I said, do you even know exactly what the game is? He was kind of explaining to me, like building shit or whatever.
Starting point is 00:22:51 And I was like, Like Minecraft, I didn't, because I've never really, I don't know, I don't know, I didn't know much about it. And the thing was, I explained, I like peaceful moments in, in within games, but that can be the entire game for me. It can't be the main premise. I gave an example of the game, Illusion of Gaia, where your ship wreck and you're just on this plank with this princess broad. And then it's like seven days past, and it's very calming and chill. And then, you know, she's like starving because she doesn't want to eat fish and stuff like that. And it's very touching and very, it's a very nice moment.
Starting point is 00:23:21 And stuff like in Skyron when you finally get like tools and stuff in that one DLC when you can build your house. I like moments like that. But if that's like the main thing, I'm like, oh, I'm good. I need that to just be a cool down. But I think that's like that's the entire game. And I think it's beautiful because of how how just like it's just a sim. It's a sim. It's a sim.
Starting point is 00:23:44 It's really cute. It's fun. And everything. It's just it's unbelievably charming. Like it's just over the world. Like, it's insane. I like that people like it. Like, I respect it.
Starting point is 00:23:55 Like, I'm glad that people, like, really enjoy Animal Crossing. Yeah. But I could, I just, I need, I don't really, I don't know if I really play games to relax. You know what I mean? That's why I play, like, Skyrim to relax. Where the music's nice and relaxing, you can just kind of trek, you know, you know, like stuff like that where. I mean, yeah, that's why I play Breath of Wild. Brother of Wild is the most relaxing games to me, I think.
Starting point is 00:24:16 They're just relaxing elements to a lot of games. Yeah. Like, even just in Eternal. which is like super like metal and like crazy like insane. There are moments where you're just platforming and you're just doing like hunting for like collectibles and shit. Yeah. And that stuff is just super chill. It's fast, but it's like really chill and like even just destiny going to the tower and like just going through different vendors.
Starting point is 00:24:37 It's like, ah. I went to the farm again and destiny after like years and the farm is beautiful. It's a nice little space. I was like this is a puseful, beautiful place. People are playing soccer. I'm like, this is nice. Oh yeah. There's like a soccer ball.
Starting point is 00:24:49 What the hell? And like a whole fucking thing. Like a rabbit wheel or something that you can run on top of and run inside of. It's just like, this is kind of beautiful. Yeah, music there is nice too. That's the thing. It's like, Animal Crossing is just that. It's like, I don't know if I could really get it.
Starting point is 00:25:02 I think I might get it just out of curiosity because I feel like I just want to play as much as possible. Yeah. And then you get hooked on it. I mean, you are. I can see it. I mean, I don't mind that. I need games at this point. I need things to take me off this planet.
Starting point is 00:25:16 I feel like I was a last night. Simulate just playing Resident Evil 2. remake with some mods. Yeah, I saw. It was a, yeah. You saw, you saw? Yes. Wait, what mod do you have on?
Starting point is 00:25:26 Every time I turn on your fucking game of your fucking stream, I'm like, what is, what is that? He played at some like super beefed out bitch. And Mr. X, like a big black man who she was setting his crotch on fire. I was, what is wrong with this guy? Okay, so yeah. Claire was an ultra bodybuilder, you know, all the roids. Just, just looking as thick is all hell.
Starting point is 00:25:45 And then we're waiting just to finally hit Mr. X, right? So Mr. X shows up, pushes the helicopter aside, and he's in a speedo and aviators and flip-flops. And he's just like, he's just trying to do work on you, man. But it was just trying to do work on you. It was good. It was good. Everybody was happy about the reveal because I didn't know. I haven't played a game since August.
Starting point is 00:26:09 I checked on my Steam. And I was like, I don't know what mod I have for Mr. X. And so we're all like anticipating, like, what is he going to look like? That's always scary. Yeah. And then actually, actually, I was like, okay, let me make sure I do Claire. And I don't want to run into, into Ada because she might be like naked or something. And so I was just like, it happened to me in Skyrim where I was trying to finish.
Starting point is 00:26:31 I was like in Dragon's Reach trying to actually do a quest. And then as soon as I walk through the door on the right, there's just a naked chick sitting down. I was like, fuck, I don't think I can play this. I'm an idiot with mods. Your mod choice upsets me. It upsets me. I respect it. but just like, what, why, why that, why that that way?
Starting point is 00:26:51 I mean, if you can't make them, like, say, Leon is, I mean, I even, I was kind of disappointed in myself because Leon is Shrek. And I was a little disappointed myself. I was like, oh, yeah, that's right. Mods are really fucked, man. Every time I see a modded game, I just, I feel like this should be, like, the Maiden Dreams watermark. I've been, like, so I'm going to admit,
Starting point is 00:27:13 I've been into a little bit of Dragon Ballsie Ten Kaii 2-3 moding. That's not possible. It is. It is very possible. I've seen it. I've seen it. What do you mean? You did it?
Starting point is 00:27:22 No, like I've been watching a lot of it. Like, I've been consuming a lot of content. How do you mod? I guess the ROM. Yeah, Ram. He just mod the ROM. So I was watching Poo Bear fight Woody. And Poo Bear was beating the living shit out of Woody.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Like, he was like beating up and down. And then Woody had a few buzz. And he turned into booty. Booty. Booty. And booty. booty beat fire. What did booty look like?
Starting point is 00:27:50 Booty looked like Buzz and Woody put together. Really? They did like a whole model for it? Literally it exists. That's kind of impressive. It's a lot of effort. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:27:57 I was so fucking, it was like two in the morning and I saw it my jaw dropped and I was just like, I have to watch more and I started consuming. I saw Garfield fuck up Shrek. I was just,
Starting point is 00:28:08 I might, I might want to check that out. You should. You really should. I used to watch a lot of Mugin. Oh my God. I used to watch so much of me. I've been waiting for somebody
Starting point is 00:28:15 to make a Seinfeld Mugin fighter for, the longest time because I feel like it would genuinely be hilarious. Mugin is so fucking wild. Like whoever makes those games is a fucking lunatic. They're crazy. How do they make everything? Almost everything you can think of is in that shit.
Starting point is 00:28:32 It's so good. Dude, there's a Mugin of Airbud, bro. I saw that shit. I was just like, what the fuck? I was like, what the fuck is this? That's Airbud. He was just throwing various sport items at the person. Dude, I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:28:45 I didn't, I've never even thought to check one. no of course not why would you think to check why would you think airbud would be on mugin huh i mean that's true that's that's true but you're dumb for not thinking that because everything's on you that's true i am i am dumb fighting games are definitely the most amusing ones to mod just because it's it's it's always just strange seeing fucking little bill do some kind of crazy
Starting point is 00:29:08 wolf fang fist the shit out of fucking donald trump and mugin little bill it's like this child somehow made it here to fight What is going on? Hey, man. Don't underestimate a little Bill. I mean, he's a sleeper. He's a future sleeper. We got a bunch of questions because I feel that's going down a really bad road there.
Starting point is 00:29:29 That's a mean road down there. You don't want to go down now, Rob. James Passmore, I'm speaking over you. James Passmore.

Starting point is 00:30:18 It's going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw Billboard of years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and batter and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with me? Morgan and Morgan. What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call.
Starting point is 00:31:01 24-7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, from, thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit forethepeople.com for an office near you. Yours is definitely the GameCube. Mine is definitely the GameCube. I think the GameCube is like really solid, but I've also used it for so long. I think the GameCube controller is genuinely terrible. I'm with you. It's good for Smash Brothers and Smash Brothers only. And there's no...
Starting point is 00:31:28 It's good for games that are created for the GameCube. And that's it. I don't even really think that's true. I think it's only good for Smash Brothers. I think the 64 had the worst controller ever. That shit was just alien. It was like, what the fuck is it? No, the 64 was just weird.
Starting point is 00:31:42 It's stupid. It's dumb. It's a bad of controller, I think. Nintendo, from 6th, 64 and beyond just want to like, let's make controllers that look like Fisher Price fucking items. And they're, they piss me off because what happened to the day we're pioneering the original controller that everybody's so used to using? It's like, oh, this is really good. You know, X, Y, B, A, or whatever.
Starting point is 00:32:06 And then it just, it was good. And then they're like, okay, Dreamcast, we're going to make it look like some fucking spaceship. No, Dreamcast, sorry. In 64, we're going to make it look like a spaceship. We're going to have three, no, four Cs. you're going to have a Z on the back you're going to have this like what is this design this is weird and then they're like okay gamecube
Starting point is 00:32:23 we're going to have all of the buttons be different shapes we're going to have one giant button one little tiny button and what are you doing why is it is weird why would you do that the game cube is such a fine design to me but I think I learned how is that a fine design no symmetry how is no symmetry of fine design
Starting point is 00:32:39 because there's order and chaos is there in the shape there's order and chaos shut up there is there is not in a fucking control There's always beauty and chaos, man. Okay, you can argue beauty. You can argue beauty, but not ordered. I think it's a good looking controller. Like, when I see it, I like the way it looks on like somebody.
Starting point is 00:32:57 When it's away from me. I'm talking to children right now. The kids would see that and they're impressed by, wow. I think it's just the purple. I think you are vile. The purple is nice. I think it's the purple. I think the purple really does a lot of the heavy lifting.
Starting point is 00:33:10 For me, the purple is nice. When I have this, it's black has the smash logo on it. And it's like in silver. And that definitely. definitely butters my muffin. I think it looks nice. The problem is, you're right with the weird shaped buttons.
Starting point is 00:33:26 They don't, they never feel elongated. What the fuck is that? Yeah, they never feel quite right to touch. And then like the triggers feel really awkward because they're just, their buttons.
Starting point is 00:33:35 It's, it's fine. It's so fine to me. It's not fine. It is. I think it's just fine. Like, I don't know the problem,
Starting point is 00:33:43 but I've also been using that controller for so long. I'll show you the problem. You can use the GameCube controller right now on the Switch with anything. Yeah. You try playing anything that was built for even PlayStation 2,
Starting point is 00:33:59 Xbox, anything with that basic controller layout on a GameCube controller and it fundamentally breaks because literally the controller has fewer buttons. Yeah. It is literally a less, you know, varied controller. there's not a lot that you can do with it you can only play Smash Bros. with that fucking thing.
Starting point is 00:34:19 I love it. You can only play GameCube games and back with it. Yeah, that's it. I love that controller. Like, I really love it. So I don't know the problem. My thing is, I am really biased with it because the only reason I even wanted a GameCube because I wasn't a huge Nintendo guy past SNS and I loved Bloody Roar
Starting point is 00:34:40 and Bloody Roar 3 was only on fucking GameCube at the time. I think it went to PS2 afterwards, I think. But at the time, I was like, I need to get this. And playing a fighting game with those wonky fucking buttons, that was the thing that made me so angry that it's not like every, all of them were just the same size of the buttons typically with the Super Nintendo, everything else.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Obviously, Sega was, you know, a little weird. They're fat fucking buttons. They got a little weird, but they definitely. They got in line with their, like, you know, how they have the, kind of like how there's that pro controller for, for, Switch. Yeah. They got in line to.
Starting point is 00:35:16 They fell in line. People, people understand. Yeah. There's a standard and the best way to play a game. The Dreamcast controller was cool as shit. The Dreamcast was the, was the, that's what Xbox was like, oh, let's steal that shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:28 And they built upon it. Your Xbox controller is just a better Dreamcast control. Yeah. Yeah. I think the Xbox, I think all of them are fine. I've never had a controller problem. I think all of them now are good. Like, this is the first generation where I think all the controllers are pretty, overall,
Starting point is 00:35:42 pretty solid. Like, I, like, I hear people would, like, complain. Like for me, I don't like, this is one thing I don't like. I hate controls with a lot of rumble. I hate it. I hate it so much because I feel like whenever... I like it. Whenever there's, like, when I play fighting games, I turn off the rumble because I used to play fighting games with fight sticks.
Starting point is 00:36:00 Like my cousin and me when we play Street Fighter, we would take out the fight sticks, which were way too much fucking money. Literally, we'd get them for Christmas and it's like $100 fucking $100 for this nice ass fight stick of fucking Ryu punching Ken or some shit on it. And we would play like that. there's no rumble in those. Because, you know, because I feel like rumble, since the signal for the rumble goes through, I feel like it fucks up my input sometimes. I think you're just, that's, you're blaming. I feel like that's why I feel like no one plays with those in fighting games.
Starting point is 00:36:27 Everyone plays without rumble on anything. Success starts with your drive. An American public university is here to fuel it.

Starting point is 00:37:09 I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw billboard of years recently. It said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north,
Starting point is 00:37:26 probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and batter and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident?
Starting point is 00:37:41 Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call. 24-7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Lawfram,
Starting point is 00:37:54 thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. And that's the games I played the most, you know, growing up. So whenever I would play, like, I played, uh, what's the name of that fucking game for Xbox? The Xbox won that fighting game that's like exclusively for them. And everybody.
Starting point is 00:38:10 Killer Instinct? Yeah, I played Killers. It was so much fucking rumble. I was like this doesn't feel good. Because I feel like this is like shaking. I can see I'm getting hit on the screen. That's not a controller thing, though. Well, it is.
Starting point is 00:38:20 I think it's a context of my... No, you could shut Rumble off in options and everything. I never really've done it, but I just don't like the fact that, like, that's even a thing. Rumble in general? Rumble's good. Because you don't need it, because the game should be giving you visual cues of you getting damage. You don't need... I don't know.
Starting point is 00:38:37 I don't know. I don't know. I don't think it's like a necessity. It's just, like, to enhance the experience. I don't feel like it does. I feel like this takes away from me visually viewing it on the screen. That's such a weird thought. That's this, that's my pet peeve.
Starting point is 00:38:50 And like I've, I, I've just, why I've just noticed from watch people play other, like, play competitive video games. No one ever plays or anything like that. I get that. I mean, I get it. It could be distracting. But how do you know, how would you know that somebody's not playing a game with Rumble? Because in Smash, they turned it off. In Smash.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Yeah. And, and I'm assuming in other fighting games, they just don't play with controllers at all. So just fighting games. Yeah, that's one for fighting games, at least. For shooters, I should just, I should still see where someone's hitting me from. I like Rumbus. and shooters. I specifically,
Starting point is 00:39:17 whenever I'm playing, like, that'll be the first thing to turn off whenever your battery is going dead on your controller. Sure. Is the rumble.
Starting point is 00:39:23 The rumble will stop. And immediately, everything feels wrong. Like, when you're taking damage and you're not feeling rumble, you're not feeling any feedback, it feels fucking wrong. It feels like uncanny.
Starting point is 00:39:32 It's gross. It's something real weird about it. Like, or when I'm shooting, and there's no, like, input at all. I love that. It just, like,
Starting point is 00:39:38 I just think it's like, experience enhancer, but I understand how it can kind of, if you don't, if you don't, you know, and say you either like it or you don't. I really think it is.
Starting point is 00:39:46 I think it's weird. Because I even use, I use it on Destiny, but sometimes I use it on Destiny, I'm like, oh my God, I wish I didn't really feel that. I should be able to see
Starting point is 00:39:52 where this guy is shooting me from, you know? That's just kind of, that's just my pet peeve. I'd rather the visual cues than this shaking. Because like, this shaking, what if I thought I was shaking?
Starting point is 00:40:01 What are you, what kind of, are you inapt? Are you stupid? Like, what if I'm doing something like that? I'm like, oh, man, like, oh, man, this thing shook.
Starting point is 00:40:08 So you're arguing on behalf of the mental defect Or the world beneath them is shaking to pieces. Sometimes I think the world's moving under me and I don't notice. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something why the rumble is probably a great thing for a lot of women. So you can stop immediately. Oh, no. No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:40:30 I got to tell you this real quick. So this is in high school, right, and one of my good friends. I'm just, I'm not going to go deep into it, but I'm just going to say, Tony Hawk. I don't know if it was one or two. Might even been three. Who knows? Just one of the cheat codes, right? just for infinite balance
Starting point is 00:40:44 and then you just grind on like a pool or something so you just keep going on forever you got that rumble going on I think I think you get it from there There were It turned it to a beautiful toy There were games that I remember There were games that I remember
Starting point is 00:40:56 On the Xbox Live arcade or like the indie There was like an indie section on Xbox Live Do you remember that? When they would have like the The old school marketplace It was like arcade and then there was like indies Yeah when they were really trying to support like indie Yeah yeah it was like Fortress Craft
Starting point is 00:41:09 and shit like that on it But like I remember there was this one game that I saw that was like just literally a thing that just made your controller rumble forever. And I'm sure that's sold really well. They had like demographics, like 98.9% women. I like, I like, I like, I don't know. There's something about like rumbull and controllers that I really like.
Starting point is 00:41:29 Specifically, like, I feel weird playing most shooters now on mouse and keyboard, specifically because it feels weird not to have that feedback. It also feels weird to shoot a gun without pulling a trigger. I'm so used to it It's not nearly as satisfying to me I'm sure it's like it's definitely way more accurate on PC And there's some games that I would never Exactly
Starting point is 00:41:49 Like if I'm gonna play Overwatch I want to play mouse and keyboard typically Unless I'm playing like Farrer or something That's the problem That is the biggest problem right there And somebody asked me the other day Like oh how can you've never You're such a huge Mass Effect fan
Starting point is 00:42:01 How come you've never played it on PC How can you've never streamed it? It's because they don't have controller support They don't! Isn't it insane? It's fucking crazy I downloaded Mass Effect too I mean maybe You can download a mod.
Starting point is 00:42:12 You can definitely mod controllers board into it. But I remember I downloaded one of, like, when I was going home for New Year's or something, a couple years ago, I had a Surface. I had a Microsoft surface. I got it specifically with the intent of, like, doing Photoshop and stuff and also, like, being able to play games because my MacBook couldn't do that. And I brought it home. I was on the plane. I downloaded Mass Effect 2, and I was so excited. And I booted it up.
Starting point is 00:42:35 I plugged my controller in, and nothing happened. And I was like, this can't possibly. And I couldn't even Google whether or not. not like, that was normal. Oh, because I didn't have the internet on the plane. So I was just like trying so hard to figure out why it wasn't working. And I found out when I landed that it just didn't have controller support. That's insane.
Starting point is 00:42:54 It was really sad. Yeah. That makes no sense also because it's literally a console game. Also, my thing. I don't understand that. It angers me. And then it really showed me to myself how lazy I am because you can download shit to actually have controller support. The thing is, though, you have to program it yourself.
Starting point is 00:43:13 And I was like, oh, I don't want to do this. Like, as soon as I saw, like, oh, I have to make sure, I'm not doing this. Yeah, especially with the game like Mass Effect, where it seems like it's not really a mouse and keyboard heavy game. No, no, it doesn't feel like it. It doesn't not feel like that. It's like a Dragon Age. Yeah. I was fine with the mouse and keyboard because it was designed that way and there's not shooting.

Starting point is 00:45:00 From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, from thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. Yeah. In fact, you want to shoot stuff and you should have the option. Yeah. I think that's all you need to know.
Starting point is 00:45:14 Indeed. I should have the option. You should have the option. Huggard Derek wrote in. Wait, what? His name's Huggard Derek. Huggoo Derek. I don't make the rules.
Starting point is 00:45:24 I thought it said, like, like, hunger, like he's more hung to me. I was like, probably. Maybe that's what he meant, but you fucked up. What's up, you minority millennial monasteries? I think a monastery is a place. Yeah, I'm not a monastery. Monk, baby. You dummy.
Starting point is 00:45:42 What are some of y'all's favorites licensed games. That being games based on movies slash TV shows, etc. Mine is SpongeBob Battle for Bikini Bottom. It's a dope-ass game. I think that's actually getting remade. What? Interesting. I think so. I'll look it up after I'm done reading. For me, X-Men Orges Wolverine was one
Starting point is 00:45:58 of them. Fuck, that is an amazing. That is that is not make sense. It's too good to make sense. That game was so good for no conceivable fucking reason. X-Men Orges Wolverine was really good. That game was just good. I was like, why is this game just
Starting point is 00:46:14 great. It was up. Like everyone. It was like one of those unanimous things where everyone scratched their heads. They're like, why is this good? Yeah. It shouldn't be good. I feel like some of my favorite games were based on licenses. Like when I was a kid, especially. Like I think, like Lord of the Rings, Return of the King is like such a...
Starting point is 00:46:31 That's another... It's such a stupid good game for no good reason. Harry Potter in the Chamber of Secrets is a bomb-ass game for no good reason. It's a free roam grand theft auto-o-hire. What the hell? Oh my God, Simpsons hit and run? Simpsons hit and run That game was so fucking The cops in that game were ballistic I fucking loved it
Starting point is 00:46:51 They would just come at you You could kick your wife Down the street In Simpsons hit and run And it was rated T for team It was amazing That was back when Blood and Gore
Starting point is 00:47:03 And curses would make you rated M Yeah the only reason I figured this out later But like I think I learned that Like the only reason Halo was rated M Is because the flood would come apart When you shot him
Starting point is 00:47:13 that's the only reason Halo had blood for a long time you thought it was just like pink semen just all over the walls no I was like oh because that would have because one time I remember I like I saw my friend like Sparring Laser like another Sparring and I was like oh that's blood
Starting point is 00:47:25 I haven't seen that ever And he was like This is the third game and I was like Oh Halo 1 is super bloody Like there's blood everywhere In the first in the first Hale game You know
Starting point is 00:47:35 Yes I mean fucking Oh man I'm trying to Spider Man 2 Spider Man 2 That game is really important To like video games in general is immensely important. That's like one of the best superhero games ever.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Probably not now. But, like, definitely, like, at the time. Definitely. That game made the framework for a lot of video games to exist. Yeah, I'm trying to think of other, like, licensed games. I know there was one SpongeBob game that I really liked, but I don't know if it was battle. I think it was based on the movie.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Might have been battle, actually. Battle for Bikini Bottom was a great fucking game. They're remastering it. I'm excited. I swear to you. That's crazy. I'm excited. Battle for bikini.
Starting point is 00:48:13 bottom. I swear this is being Re Mooster. Yeah. Yeah, 12 minutes. 12 minutes, this is August 23rd, 2019. 12 minutes of SpongeBob SquarePants, battle for bikini bottom,
Starting point is 00:48:23 rehydrated. And it's by T.HQ. Nordic, the same people making the DestroHumans reboot. That's hilarious. That game was good. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:48:32 I am loving this era of remasters and remakes. It's cool, man. Yeah. They're all so good. Final Fantasy 7's remake, the demo was off. I am not a Final Fantasy fan at all, and I really liked it.
Starting point is 00:48:46 That shit is off the chain. That's going to be up there with Cyberpunk and do them for the best game of the year. I'm sure of it. It's not going to be finished, though. So, like, you know. Oh, yeah, they're putting it out episodically. Yeah, which is, I mean, based on how, like, Square Nix, you guys have failed constantly lately, you know? You guys have been just failures lately, you know?
Starting point is 00:49:10 Kingdom Hearts 3 was. Probably the worst AAA game I played in a long time. Oh, other than Pokemon Sword and Shill, but that's a different story. Final Fantasy 15 got really good at the end of the game, the very end. 50 hours in? You got to play, man. It gets good. 25 hours in.
Starting point is 00:49:30 It's super cool than the game ends. You just got to get like eight days in, and I swear it's real good. I hate when people tell me that. But like... I hate when people tell me that. Seven might be it, man. And seven might be, it might be the, like, when they're like, hey, maybe we could, like, fix this shit.
Starting point is 00:49:46 Because Final Fantasy 7 is. It plays really well. It feels like a video game. That's what I like about it. It doesn't feel like it's trying to be this, like, weird, like, experience. It really does feel like, oh, this is a video game. Like, here's a ladder that takes a stupid amount of time to climb up.
Starting point is 00:50:00 It's like, oh, sick. I remember there being something on PSP that was an offshoot of Final Fantasy CORE. That's right. That game made me cry. I was playing a little bit of it. I was like, this is fun. I enjoyed it.
Starting point is 00:50:11 Christ's core actually not what I think about it's what I thought that because I was looking at it was like it reminds me of that fucking thing yeah it's really good I I like a little bitch afterwards I was not excited for Final Fantasy 7 remake much at all I played like a little bit of Final Fantasy 7 in like 2013 you played it way too old yeah I the charm was gone from me I was like I didn't grow up with this I like the music I think is objectively good yeah because like I didn't grow up with that music at all and it's still like really good I think even in the new one it really I think every Final Fantasy game especially the first 10 have great music. Seven in particular, man. Seven's like a level above, though. I don't know. I think the best music goes to eight, actually. No, whatever. I think eight has some really, really, really, really, really good.
Starting point is 00:50:51 I can't argue because I've never, I've never played it. Man with a machine gun, if anybody knows that theme, a really, really good theme. A good soundtrack will elevate a mediocre game into, like, being really great. Oh, yeah. That was the franchise of just several good aspects. Star Wars has a terrible story, because whoever wrote the story initially was not that good. but it has so many
Starting point is 00:51:12 it has a sword that's made out of light which is fucking just cool it has people using monks using telekinetic power which is just badass it has an insane score and in the sound design period and every aspect of that world is insane like the blasts even sound fucking cool
Starting point is 00:51:28 yeah the music really elevates Star Wars 100% it's the main thing if it wasn't good if the music was bad it would have been very flat because that's what really that's why they called a space opera, right? Where you're like, this really just seems like gaudy and shit.
Starting point is 00:51:45 And I get it, man. It's the same thing with, like hack and slash. Like, a lot of people don't like hack and slash. Like, oh, whatever, I'm bored. Like, God of War. The music is so insanely good. It really, it gets to the point where sometimes you, you kind of almost stop thinking about fighting,
Starting point is 00:52:02 and then you're just listening to the music. Like, oh, this is amazing. Even in the new one. Who did it? Even the new one had, like, crazy good music. Oh, it's really good. Every once in a while, there's this one, I don't remember the theme. I don't know what it's called or anything, but you're doing like the trials when you're fighting and stuff and that one hot-ass place where it's all like fire and shit.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Mustafa. Yeah, yeah, there you go. Musfulheim. Musferheim. Yeah, Musilha. Mustafa is the place in Star Wars, actually. And I'm just like disagreeing. I'm like, yeah, that's it.
Starting point is 00:52:28 Yeah, you're right. I don't want to argue. That's where Anakin got his fucking arm and leg chopped. Oh, yeah. Oh, that was good. Yeah, we turned into a fucking pirate. It's insane. Like, I feel like
Starting point is 00:52:43 I feel like a good soundtrack really is like the differentiator between like a game that's okay and a game that's like really great. Like I think like Doom Eternal like plays really, really well but that soundtrack makes everything you're doing feel like 10 times cooler. The soundtrack for Doom 2016 is insane.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Yeah. I don't really love that game that much but the soundtrack is just nutty. Yeah, that's how I feel about most games that I like. I feel like a lot of them is like a lot of them are elevated by music The Shadow of the Colossus is definitely like a niche kind of game like not a lot of people are gonna like love
Starting point is 00:53:14 but like that that song like those fucking musical cues that pop up anytime you still like whenever you see like when you see the first Colossus and that score starts playing it's like this is wild how good this is Skyrim Skyrim music is fucking wild I got sick of hearing that load screen music though
Starting point is 00:53:30 God damn God damn God damn I can only it's so dumb Nope. I've heard it too. The loading screen music specifically, I've just heard so many times in that game that I just, I can't with it.
Starting point is 00:53:44 It's so frustrating. It's like I can only rotate this 3D model of a bear so, so often before I get bored out of my mind. You know what's crazy? The new one, it loads so much faster. The old one would take forever to load. It's going to load like crazy on the new fucking machines. I'm not even ready for that. Oh, yeah, right?
Starting point is 00:54:01 I'm not ready to. Oh, I know. Loading trees are probably just gone pretty much entirely. Yeah. So are they going to like remaster, remaster, remaster. Can you imagine? They might, they might, because they're still making a ton of money off that fucking game. So they're probably going to do that.
Starting point is 00:54:12 It's kind of crazy. It's got a crazy because I've, I mean, it's... How many times if you bought that game? At least three times. At least. I think I bought it three times too. I think I got it on Switch for planes. I got it on PC for mods.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Yeah. I got on Xbox 360 when it came out. Same. And then I got the fucking Xbox, the PS4 one when they released it again. I only bought it once. I'm an idiot. I bought it four fucking times. I might have it for the PS3.
Starting point is 00:54:38 I'm not sure, but I have it for the... I definitely bought it for the Xbox 1 remastered. Xbox 360 was how I played it first and the PC. Dude, the fucking PS3 version was fucked at launch. Yeah? Like, the PS3 version of Skyrim was a mess, a colossal mess. It's astonishing that Joe likes that game. Because, like, the PS3 version was so uniquely fucked.
Starting point is 00:54:57 Were there so much worse than Xbox one? It was really bad. It was, like, noticeably bad. Because, like, the PS3 was designed so fucking weirdly. Like, it was just really a pain in the ass to develop for us. So, like, a lot of games just didn't... A lot of games were just worse on PlayStation 3 for some reason. Because they just designed the fucking machine stupid.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Hey man, it'd be like that. It really does. It really do be like that. They really do, man. It really do. Damn, I'm like blanking on all these, like, I know there's so many license games that I remember playing that I just, I can't remember. I give it to Simpson's hit and run in what you call it.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Yeah, Eclment's origins. That was fun. That shit was way better than you need. Like, have no fucking business. I'm going to Return of the King. Return of the King is really good. I didn't even like Lord of the Rings and I like that. Lord of Rings Conquest.
Starting point is 00:55:39 Oh my God. Oh my God. I can't believe I forgot about that. That fucking game was so dope. Lord of the Rings conquest was made by pandemic. Success starts with your drive.

Starting point is 00:56:23 Hey, how's it going today? It's going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw a billboard of years recently
Starting point is 00:56:38 that said 20 billion one. 20 billion is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and batter and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger
Starting point is 00:56:54 as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call.
Starting point is 00:57:08 24 7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, from thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit for thepeople.com for an office near you. Yeah, it was. Which, they were killed by EA. Like everything.
Starting point is 00:57:24 Like everything. Yeah, like a lot of them. They made battlefront. They made mercenaries, destroy humans. Oh my God, Star Wars Battlefront, the original ones. Mm-hmm. Star Wars Battlefront. But, like, Lord of the Rings conquest was just Battlefront and Lord of the Rings.
Starting point is 00:57:36 and it was fucking awesome and it did not get the chance that it deserved. That could have been, that was such a good game for no good reason again. I would play as the Hobbit turned invisible and they're thinking of one people
Starting point is 00:57:50 on stabbing their throat. That was like my classic one too. It was just so cool. I did that every fucking time. I played it a lot with me. I was a piece of garbage. Not a lot of people did. They didn't market it.
Starting point is 00:57:59 I was cheating. EA was so bad. E.A. is so bad at marketing their own shit. Do you remember when they sandwiched fucking Titanfall 2 in between Battlefield and Call Duty? That was doomed it.
Starting point is 00:58:09 So dumb. It was objectively the... It was better than both of those games, but they suffered because they just threw it in between them. Oh yeah. And like people are obviously going to go with fucking Battlefield
Starting point is 00:58:19 or Call Duty. Of course. Because those are the safe ones. Yeah, well, people are... That was so dumb. E.A. were dumb-dum. Good Lord. I just feel like they make
Starting point is 00:58:27 probably so much money off of fucking EA sports. There's like, whatever. No, yeah, for sure. They definitely make just a lot of money off of Madden and stuff. Way too much money. It's despicable.
Starting point is 00:58:36 Yeah, so everything else is like swallowed up, whatever. If it fails, doesn't matter. It will shut you down. I bet those games make a boatloaded micro-transactions. I bet it's insane. It's for people that, because the thing is, I finally bought a basketball. I haven't played a basketball game since Dreamcasted at 2K2, which was really fun. I had a lot of fun playing NBA 2K2.
Starting point is 00:58:58 Like 20 years ago. Like 20 years ago. It's so it's still kind of fun, right? Because I plugged in my Dreamcastle. playing. It's still kind of fun. I'm imagine. So I bought 2K19 and I was blown awake. Like people claim they hate
Starting point is 00:59:12 this shit because this is the same game over and over but they keep buying it. So I'm like, well, what are you doing? Now the thing is, since I haven't played a basketball game since all of them years ago, this game was like phenomenal to me. Yeah. And the AI freaked me out. You know, because it was really there was so much attention to detail
Starting point is 00:59:27 when I would do something. Very specific like the AI, like Shaq and stuff would be talking shit about me and the decisions I made. I'm like, how did you know that. How did you have words prepared for what I did? You know, like, I'm doing unconventional things. I'm on purpose doing dumb shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:44 It is funny. Like, because those games are like, I don't have a problem with those games necessarily as far as they exist. But, like, just the fact that they come out every year, it's like if you want to be a self-respecting sports games fan, at least buy one every three years. Yeah, I don't happen. People about it out of every fucking game. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:00:01 People get excited for that shit. Because how do you even see, like, I feel like if I was playing these games like every year, like diving into the new one every single year, I feel like I wouldn't notice what's different. I feel like it would just be gradual evolution into something that's like eventually like way better. Yeah. It's like the opposite. It's like a live service game, but you have to buy a new disc every time. Yeah, actually. It's just, it's really weird. I last spooky game I played. I played 2K 16. So that's time I played. And I was just like, I don't want these games anymore. But I was a fucking, I was a sweaty on that shit. Like I'd play that shit and I'd get like real mad if I lost
Starting point is 01:00:34 I would call people shit that was unruled I'd make fun of people on it I would fucking You got any accounts banned? I have I have an affiliancy from making fun of people and when I start doing that shit online
Starting point is 01:00:47 bro It gets it gets raunchy You just say affiliancy Yeah You fucking Payne Robinson wrote in Don't hate me because you ain't me Chris
Starting point is 01:00:57 Chris hopefully Derek and Sweeney Yes Derek is back Have you guys played Shadow of Mordor or the Shadow of War games. Yeah. And do you have any cool nemesis system stories? And speaking of the nemesis system, what are some cool video game innovations you feel went overlooked? I had this one, I don't remember.
Starting point is 01:01:13 You know what I'm talking about, though, right? Was it, was I playing? Was I playing? What the fuck happened? So what happened was, um, we were playing. Something crazy happened. This was playing on Shadow of War, right? And he was fighting and one guy almost beat him. And then before the guy beat him,
Starting point is 01:01:28 another fucking Uruk came and chopped that guy's head off. then took his spot. And I was just like, what? I was like, why'd he do that? Yeah, and then he let me go. It was insane. It was the craziest. That was one of the most immersive experiences I think I'd ever had.
Starting point is 01:01:44 Everybody was everybody, because Marco was here too, right? Yeah. It was like a huge fight. I was fighting this guy for like 30 minutes. It was really, it was a really hard fight. So he had no business actually trying to fight him at that level. No. Yeah, absolutely not.
Starting point is 01:01:56 But then like, but then he downs me and I'm all out of like counters. And he's about to come kill me. And some other guy cuts. his head off and I was like this is amazing that shadow shadow shadow was that the new one shadow of war yeah shadow of war is great yo dude I'd sometimes
Starting point is 01:02:11 another another great license game yeah I was gonna mention that but I was like it seems so uh recent so recent yeah yeah I man if I just ever want to kill people that sound like Australians man that is the game that is the game to go to it's killing Australians the simulator all the or the orcs or the Iraq
Starting point is 01:02:30 South Australian because they're supposed to be insane That is, they're crazy. They're like, oh, make them Australia. They sound like that. I love it. And they're all quippy like fucking Australian. Yeah, you fucking bitch.
Starting point is 01:02:40 They're going to kill me. I'll fucking eat your liver. That was great. I actually, it was one of the things that pushed me to finally get a PC. It was because my roommate at the time, I was playing Shadow Mordor on 360. Success starts with your drive. An American Public University is here to fuel it.

Starting point is 01:03:30 Hey, how's it going today? It's going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw Billboard of years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 billion is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered.

Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. And then I'm looking over his shoulder playing on PC, and they just look God tier. And the fucking black blood look like real oil. And I was like, fuck this, fuck Xbox. Like, look at this, look at this, man. You're playing on a 360.
Starting point is 01:04:40 Sorry, sorry, Xbox one. The fuck am I saying? What the fuck am I saying? Oh, good. No, yeah, it wasn't that bad. It wasn't that bad. I was about to say, Jesus. Yeah, like, okay.
Starting point is 01:04:48 It came off of that. Did you fucking de-res the game or something like that to play? No, it wasn't the bad. So it was Xbox ones, but it was still a pretty big difference. Oh, yeah, of course. And I was like, wow. And when I finally started playing it, well, I was playing it a lot on Xbox one as well.
Starting point is 01:05:01 But I was so enthralled with the game because it was just like, this is there's so many games that are kind of becoming this rock steady fucking arkham shit yeah like and i love it because i actually love i love countering and i love sneaking around and i would just kill people for hours just go around killing orcs for hours i would brutalize orcs all the time as soon as i got that ability i would look at it and i would giggle as you just stab this orc in a foot the fucking chest the back the head it's one of the most violent games i think i've seen still it's up there it can be you can be so violent because you're not killing people.
Starting point is 01:05:35 You know what I mean? Yeah. It's like Doom. It's like Doom too. It's like, oh yeah, you can break this demon's arm and shove the bone through his head
Starting point is 01:05:41 because it's like, ah, it's just cartoon demons. One of the kills in Doom is he just slap someone in their head blows up. That's a glory kill. I was like,
Starting point is 01:05:49 oh no. My favorite one is the first one that happens, I think it's like programmed to be the first one that happens. It's like you just hammer a demon's head into his chest and it just like looks like a fucking gross turtle. It's the funniest thing.
Starting point is 01:06:03 It's so cartooning. He killed the first Hell Priest. He starts talking. He just appears in front. He just teleports at him. Dude, man, it's violent. That game is odd. That game is...
Starting point is 01:06:13 But the second part of that question was, what are some cool video game innovations you feel when overlooked? I feel like people don't use theater mode as much as they really should. Yeah, Red Day may really appreciate... Well, no, cinematic mode is Red Dead. Oh, cinematic mode? That shit is beautiful in Red Dead, because it turns it into a painting pretty much. Red Dead 2 is unique, though, in that it's specifically very beautiful.
Starting point is 01:06:32 That's awesome. Like, I don't know if a game, that game looks amazing. Oh, yeah. On a PlayStation. Oh, yeah. Which is insane. Like, there's no reason why. The PlayStation 4 is such a weak machine.
Starting point is 01:06:44 You know? Yeah. There's no reason why that game should look that good on that, with, on the hardware with those specs. It is such a gorgeous game. So, like, cinematic mode works perfectly in that. But, like, theater mode in general, like... But it changes the H-D-R, though, when you go on a Red Dead. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:01 Literally alters it. but like theater mode like back in like when halo 3 put it in it was like revolutionary it was like crazy because it was just it would just save your games so you could like look at your multiplayer matches from any perspective and it would save it exactly how they happened and call duty copied this too for a little bit and I think it was in uncharted also uncharted 2 I think had it for multiplayer and stuff but halo's the only one that stuck with it and I think it's like that's weird because it's like it's kind of an amazing tool but apparently it's like a feat of like engineering math
Starting point is 01:07:32 mastery. Like, it's super hard for whatever reason to get theater mode working. Really? Yeah. I don't know what it is because a lot of people are really like... I don't know. You'd think it would be easy. Yeah. But like, I guess like there's some crazy wizardry about it where it's like you have to like sync everybody's net codes and then replace something that already happened and save that data to a disc. And it's it's like a bunch of like crazy stuff that I'm not intelligent enough to really talk about in depth. Perfect. But that was one of the coolest features that I remember back in the day that just sort of vanished. It's still in Halo games.
Starting point is 01:08:05 And to be fair, they're worse now. Because Bungi was really good at it, apparently. You gotta love 3, 4, 3. Hey, man. You gotta love 3, 4, 3. I'll give him a shot. The little piece of shit robot, man. You got to love him.
Starting point is 01:08:19 Besides that, that's the only one that I can think of it went overlooked. What about you, D-Ran? I really don't have anything that's coming to my mind right now. It's a feature that I really thought was like other than... You know what's cool? Proximity voice. The hell's that? What is that exactly?
Starting point is 01:08:33 Proximity voice was like if you were in a multiplayer game, you could be talking through the mic. This was like pre-parties basically, like before Xbox-I parties or like PlayStation parties, whatever the fuck. Chat rooms. And you would be in your game and you would have your mic on and you would talk and your voice would be heard by everybody depending on your proximity. So you could overhear the enemy team talking if you were close enough and you were like sneaking around them. Oh, that's insane. It was really cool. It was really cool on Halo 2, but like it was just rendered obsolete by like everybody just joining into a party and just.
Starting point is 01:09:01 kind of abandoning the whole, which sucks because, like, that was my favorite part of, like, playing online. It was, like, hearing people scream and, like, fucking be angry. Oh, my God, dude, I miss. I miss fucking game chats, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:13 Like, they were just, they were the proven ground. They were gonna see how fucked up you were gonna be growing up. Little kids from Sweden calling me to N-word, bro. That shit is a classic. That shit's a fucking classic. Like, his little Denmark kid calling me
Starting point is 01:09:26 N-word, like, and tell me, I fucked my mom when it's like, you didn't, but, like, you don't got to tell me, did man like that's just fucking not nice i miss i miss how toxic it was yeah because it was like a wholesomeness to the toxicity it was like very it was like you you you went on to xbox live and you just knew exactly what you were going to get you were going to get angry kids saying shouting racial epithets yeah absolutely and you just knew that that was going to be it yeah that's that's the move and
Starting point is 01:09:55 there was something like weirdly comforting about the fact that you just knew that that was always going to be there. And then occasionally you would get that one guy who's like, good game, man. You know? That one really nice dude. Yeah. This one really nice that carries you. And you're like, oh, man, I did.
Starting point is 01:10:07 I played like shit. He's like, yeah, you did really good, man. Thanks for the help. I got that recently. My favorite was when there was the diamond in the rough, though, the woman, the girl that shows up. And then it changes. No, I love it.
Starting point is 01:10:19 It changes everything. Yeah, everybody acted differently. The second they knew that a girl was like, I don't know what they thought. Like, what could they possibly think? Is that I loved it. I hated. Everyone turns it to a fucking gentleman or a horny demon. Dude, it was the fucking worst, man.
Starting point is 01:10:34 My friends would just get worse. I experienced that recently because I was playing Fortnite like on my grown adult fucking homeboys. We were fucking grown-ass adults. Playing Fortnite? That is pretty embarrassing. Yep. And it was so, what made me sad is that I realized that I didn't come very far from who I was.
Starting point is 01:10:50 Because I was making fun of a kid. And I was laughing my ass off. I was fucking crying. You're the person. I'm a monster. You're the guy at the other end. to the mic when we were kids. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:11:00 just fucking laughing at him. You fucking, you fucking idiot, you tweakers. You squeak. You little squeaker, you squealer. Squeaker.
Starting point is 01:11:07 You guys ever see that, that YouTuber, uh, that streamer Jerome the Love Thug? No. Is he like, is he like that guy with like, he has like a red,
Starting point is 01:11:14 he has like a weird mustache and like he has shades on? No, he doesn't show, he doesn't show, he doesn't show himself. Okay. But he, uh,
Starting point is 01:11:19 he, uh, he has that deep fucking voice changer and he's like this black dude or whatever. He puts on his voice to be even like more of a thug. and he is just trying to fuck everyone. And usually even like the kids, like you have a young voice and he's like,
Starting point is 01:11:31 oh, let me get at you. Like where that booty at? You know, like it's so egregious, but he like blew up playing a lot of Call of Duty. And it's, if you look up Jerome the Love Thug and just look at his YouTube channel, binge on that shit.
Starting point is 01:11:43 I've definitely seen, it's some of the funniest shit ever. I've definitely seen that. We, me in Kingston will like watch kids getting bullied on Xbox Lives. This is one video that we watch all the time because it sounds like
Starting point is 01:11:53 it's this kid who's in like this private. it match. He's like he's like one v. one be bro with this guy or something. The guy's way too good. He's clearly facing an adult who's really good. So he's just dying constantly. He's whining.
Starting point is 01:12:04 And there's this one part in the video where you just hear a gunshot, you hear him whine. It's like boom. And then an immediate other gunshot that just cuts his audio off entirely. And it just sounds like a kid got executed in the back. It's the, yo, dude. Honestly, look, you guys, you guys are never going to know. what Xbox 360 was like. It was crazy.
Starting point is 01:12:29 These kids are never going to understand. Oh, no. The reason, think of it like this, the reason why Chris and I are so good at insults and people was because of that shit. That is where we were fucking... That's a little self-congratulatory. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:12:41 I'm pretty good. I mean, I'm pretty good. I mean, I'm damn good. The cool thing is there's a lot of videos that do exist where you can get a taste where there's like good... VR chat is like that too, I think. I think VR chat can go there.
Starting point is 01:12:52 Oh, VR chat is where people go because it's not available. anymore. Yeah. Like everybody's in party chats now. Let's go on to VR chat and dress like fucking Hatsune Miku and sexually assault of fucking everyone. It's insane.
Starting point is 01:13:04 It's so aggressive. It's so aggressive and there's so many ridiculous things happen. My favorite video is a dude where he's in like, they're in VR chat and this guy's hitting on this anime girl. And some guy just walks up, come on, man. He's like stepping up. He's like white knighting this anime. And the dude just bursts out.
Starting point is 01:13:25 laughing. It's so funny. I love the R. The best one to me is that when they're playing like rushing roulette, and then the guys like they're playing with a revolver and like a shooting game. He's like, me, I'll go first. But he does like some slider hands and he drops the bullet out the gun. I've seen that. I've seen that. And at the end, one guy does a dab and it shoots himself in the head and it's the funniest. I've seen that. That was fantastic. I've seen that.
Starting point is 01:13:49 Look up Kremitt the fraud when you guys get a chance. Is that what it's called? Come party with Kremit. Yeah. No way. What? Yeah. Come party with Kremit. Kremit the Frog. That can't be what the video is called. It is a compilation of it.
Starting point is 01:13:58 Really? Kremit? His name is Kremit the frog. I could have sworn that was just the this house thing. Nah, his name is Kremit. I didn't know that was on the internet. Come party with Kremit. Come party with Kremit.
Starting point is 01:14:08 Kermit. Good Lord. Kremit's such a good. Anyway. You'll overlook and you'll just read Kermit. Yeah. He literally has this skin of Kermit the Frog. And you're like, oh, that's this Kermit.

Starting point is 01:15:12 Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw Billboard of yours recently. that said 20 billion one. 20 billion is an insane number.
Starting point is 01:15:29 Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and badder and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome.
Starting point is 01:15:41 So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call. 24 7, 365. Wow, Dan Morgan.
Starting point is 01:15:57 From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, from thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. What is this name? Skidnig Figo Schitts? Oh. Okay. That was like almost, almost offensive, but like not quite.
Starting point is 01:16:15 Oh. Hey, vaguely Puerto Rican snapple skeleton, clepto middle school gym teacher, and ghetto Chris Farley. had a hypothetical Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait run that back run that back I don't know I don't know That's gotta be you right Who the fuck is Chris Farley
Starting point is 01:16:32 Do you not know Are you know no no no he knows who Chris Farley You know who Chris Farley is I don't know who Chris Farley is Can you tell me please so I can try to remember I'm gonna kick you off this pot Beverly Hills Ninja Oh my god okay I'm fine
Starting point is 01:16:42 Tommy boy Saturday Night Live Living a van down by the river You fucking Lord Take a break okay He died with an egg in his mouth What And digging his ass Really? No.
Starting point is 01:16:54 For some reason, Zach would always come up to me and say, Chris Foily died with an egg in his mouth. This is something that he would only repeatedly bring up. Chris Foily died with a naked in his mouth. Chris Foley died with a negative mouth. Would you rather? So this guy has a hypothetical for us. Would you rather gain superhuman running speed with little control over your speed
Starting point is 01:17:15 or superhuman strength that strains your muscles rapidly when used? Hope Derek's feeling better. and if not, I'd like legal claim to his organs, deuses. What? I'm not a donor because if you get sick, they'll kill you on purpose. Yeah. They'll harvest you. Yeah, they will.
Starting point is 01:17:31 I'm not important. They'll make a vaccine out of it. More important than me. I'm going to grind you into a little vaccine. I'm oh, negative. I'm not a donor. Oh, they'll definitely kill you so fast. They'll be like, oh shit, we can make so much money off this.
Starting point is 01:17:40 You'll lay in the bed and they'll slit your throat. They'll just slit your throat as your leg and bed. Someone will come in with a fucking silence gun and blow my head off. I'm like, oh, man, we can make sure we didn't touch the brain now. I like a silence gun, but it's powerful enough to blow your head off. Well, they're definitely pretty strong. Wait, wait, enough to blow my head off.
Starting point is 01:18:00 You got a weak head. You got a weak head. You can have a baby's don't even have heads that week, I think. I'm sure they do. I'm sure they do. I think they do. Kingston, to blow a baby's head up with a fucking silence gun.
Starting point is 01:18:11 I'm certain that a baby's head can explode under the mildest of circumstances. I don't think so because you drop baby and they don't. Their heads don't erupt. They're dead. You're not, you're not plunging a small missile through them. You're dropping them. I don't think the heads will blow. I think they'll just be, they'll just have a bigger hole.
Starting point is 01:18:31 Exploding baby heads aside. Did you hear the question? Yeah, I heard the question. I forgot what it was. So would you rather gain superhuman running speed with little control over your speed or superhuman strength that strains your muscles rapidly when used? So this is, I feel like this is a trick question. Because you can't. You would kill yourself with the speed.
Starting point is 01:18:50 Yeah. Because you can't have super strength or you can't have super speed without super strength. Because you'd die. Because you'd run into a wall and then you'd be missed. That's not so much strength as much as just like durability. You got to have like superhuman durability so you wouldn't like blow up when you would hit a fucking car running at like 300 miles per hour. You could argue that strength. Not exactly.
Starting point is 01:19:10 You could simplify that to strength if you really want. Yes, you literally. What do you mean? You can be durable but you cannot be strong. What do you mean? What are you? What? You can be durable.
Starting point is 01:19:17 Like if the superhuman durability means that like your your body is just you're like your muscles are strong enough to endure Oh so your muscles are strong but indoor impact but doesn't mean you can no I rest no worry about it you just made my That's fine indoor impact thank you for agreeing with me you're this guy I hate this guy Literally they're different fucking powers okay for a reason that's interesting that you use both of them to describe each other No I did not I said strong enough I didn't say super strong how well I love this I love this look look he's wrong he's wrong he's wrong he's wrong he's wrong he's wrong, I'm right, right about it. I don't know if I'd want either of these.
Starting point is 01:19:55 I guess I'd want super strength. You would have to choose it. What? You would have to choose super strength. Yeah. Because I don't want to be so fast that I trip into a fucking, like, a mountain and die. I would just run in the desert for a little bit, real quick, a little bit. Boom.
Starting point is 01:20:11 And then it's like, what's the point of that, though? You would drive very carefully to the desert. And look around. You look for an open plan. It's like, okay, this is good. For a second. You trip on a cactus and then you get barreling off the fucking atmosphere. I went too super straight, but then like one time I'd like, I'd use it and I'd bust my fucking arms open.
Starting point is 01:20:28 My muscles would erupted. I'm like, ah, man, I was so strong for a moment. That could be healed, though. I don't know. Relative. Like, you might not have your arms anymore, but like you can still be alive. If you fuck up super speed, you're just, you're gone. Like, that's it.
Starting point is 01:20:41 I don't know, man. I just, I don't know what I'd want. I just don't want any of those. I would just like, could your whole body move super super speed? speed or could you like what does that i mean i would imagine so like your whole body why would just your arms move it only your only your arms can move so i want like like only your legs only your legs super fast like could your hands so like my fucking fingers really fast and scare people don't fuck with me and i just that's your only path it's just he's the flash but he can only move
Starting point is 01:21:07 his hands real fast all what i do is i grab people and i choke him and i start moving my arms real fast. You can violently shake babies like at an efficient rate. Turn a baby into a fucking apple sauce real quick. That's crazy. You got to think, man. Because if you can't use it all the way, you got to get what you can out of it. Super speed,
Starting point is 01:21:29 I would assume, I would assume that would encompass your whole body. Like, I don't think that would stop at your fucking arms. Move my tongue really fast in my mouth. Break your teeth? Your teeth melt because your tongue's moving so fast. Devert back into the atomic form
Starting point is 01:21:44 Can bones melt? No, right? Probably, I don't, I think it would have to be at an extreme temperature for that to melt. Probably not that extreme, but like, it'd probably be really hot. Because they burn bones, right? I mean, it's the last thing that's like left over if you burn the body. Yeah, so you can. It has to be at an extreme temperature.
Starting point is 01:22:02 Can you melt everything? I don't think it would melt, actually, because it just turns back into like the ad. It doesn't really melt like that. Well, it doesn't become like molten. Yeah, it doesn't melt, yeah. So it just burns. Like say when you melt a person When you care of cremate a person
Starting point is 01:22:15 They just turn into ash Your teeth aren't bones though right They're calcium Yes They're calcium but I remember reading I remember reading I remember thinking they were bones For a really long time
Starting point is 01:22:23 They're not exactly bones But like they're not exactly It's not the same as the bone that's inside your body But yeah I thought it was made up of like Some of the same material though It's something got some of the same material It's like your hair
Starting point is 01:22:34 It's like your hair Your nails Your bones And I think your teeth are just something Slightly different Yeah Like another few atoms in there They make it teeth
Starting point is 01:22:42 Teeth are gross, man. Teeth are fucking annoying, like how, well, they get so dirty because we keep eating and shit. But it's kind of annoying, like, brushing my teeth multiple times a day. I'm like, fuck this. It's aggravating. It gets, it gets frustrating. Such an uncomfortable action, too. You know what sucks?
Starting point is 01:22:57 You know what's fucking annoying? Fucking nervous. Fucking pain receptors, man. Yeah, but we need them to survive, though. Fuck that. Like, they prevent us from truly living, though. Well, see, that's not true. So, they prevent us from not.
Starting point is 01:23:11 They prevent us. So is morality. Morality. All right. I agree with. Okay. Okay. That's why I sold my.
Starting point is 01:23:19 I sold it on the black market. Okay. All right. All right. Oh, boy. Sweeney's Magic Ween rode in. I'm angry. Sweeney's Magic Ween wrote in.
Starting point is 01:23:26 Hello Unresolved Sexual Tension Podcast. Your talks about scary stories to tell in the dark got me thinking. Do any of you believe in anything paranormal? Alternatively, do you have any spooky experiences that you want to share? I have so many that I just don't want to talk about, actually. Really? I have so many I just I don't want to talk about and I don't like thinking about them actually do you believe in that shit I don't fucking know because I've seen weird shit and I just like I don't fucking I can't I can't science this away because it doesn't make sense but see I feel like there's a lot of things you can science away because our minds are so complex and they can make you see shit all the time yeah so I'm usually just like oh my mind's fucking with me and you know that's that's my default I'm like I'm my mind's fucking with me and that's it yeah there's only one time and I don't know if I explain it
Starting point is 01:24:11 on the podcast already or for any other time before but I had, yeah, the one the paranormal activity playing Xbox with my friend were playing Hunter. Hunter the Reckoning and then... The controller thing, right? The controller thing, yeah, and it just hit him in the chest and I still, to this day, I wish
Starting point is 01:24:27 I knew, you know, let me just kind of tell it a little bit for the people that's like new people. Yeah. So at New Year's Eve, 2003, I went over my friend's house to play some Xbox and was playing Hunter the Reckoning and he just finished explaining that his house was haunted and me, I'm just rolling my eyes.
Starting point is 01:24:42 Like, I don't believe in that shit, whatever. And then the controller, the entire thing, not the part where the trip connecting thing, the entire thing came out and hit him in the chest really fast. And, you know, my peripheral vision would have caught if he was yanking it. Yanking it or something. I didn't see anything. I just saw the thing hit him in the chest and he stood up like, what the fuck? We turned on the lights.
Starting point is 01:25:04 And I asked him immediately, like, dude, obviously you're fucking with me. You just finished telling that story. Yeah. This has to be a joke. You'd assume. And he's like, I swear to God. And that was 2003, right? So 2004, technically, all these years later, every once in a while, I'll go on Facebook and be like, dude, were you fucking with me?
Starting point is 01:25:24 Like, and he'll laugh. I'm like, I swear, man, I still, there's no reason to keep up the joke. There's no reason to keep it up. Yeah, it's too old at this point. It's way too old. Like, who gives a fuck? It would be, like, I think at some point he would want to laugh and point at me, be like, ah, I got you. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:38 So I typically just. I typically just assume that, yeah, it's my brain just fucking with me. Like, I remember when I was a child, like, and I was like, like, like, three or four. Because I remember, like, you told me a story. It's the funniest ever. Did I tell you this? I think it's this one, yeah. I don't know if I told this.
Starting point is 01:25:53 But, like, when I was a kid, I didn't know what the universe was, really. And I didn't know, like, planets or space or really anything because I was a fucking idiot child. Yeah. But I remember seeing something on TV where it's like, oh, the planet Earth. It's like, oh, that's Earth. And it's like, oh, that's cool. is a planet in the sky? I wonder if I could see it.
Starting point is 01:26:12 And I looked outside of my window and I saw a planet Earth in the sky. Like, I remember this as a vivid thing when I was a kid. Because I was just imagining shit that I thought was real. Yeah. And I was like, oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:23 I was just told that this would be in the sky if I looked up. And now I'm looking up at the sky and it's there. You were controlling the matrix. That's what's happening. Well, I know now that it was probably just the moon that I color corrected
Starting point is 01:26:32 in my own head to look like Earth. But like, that was a real thing that I vividly remember. I vividly remember seeing Earth in the sky. But I'm sure that that didn't happen. So, like, your brain just fucks with you, man. Absolutely. You're more susceptible to it when you're really young, too.
Starting point is 01:26:47 That's why, like, nightmares are so fucking terrifying for kids because, like, it can't, it's hard to distinguish, like, reality from it.

Starting point is 01:27:34 I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw Billboard of years recently. It said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and badder and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from yourself.
Starting point is 01:28:10 phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call. 24-7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, from, thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. But there was, the only time that I could think recently was that, like, I was, like, not even really recently, but like in the last decade. Like, I was at my parents' house. And I would go into the basement, I would, like, play much of video games. It'd be like 3 a.m. in the morning. Everybody's asleep. And I would just walk up in the dark. And I remember walking up the stairs to my room and I heard like hello like behind me and I was like I'm just I'm not going to turn around
Starting point is 01:28:44 I can't right now I cannot process that happen I just keep walking I just kept walking at the same pace because I felt like if I ran I would be grabbed so like I just like you know I just kept walking I'm sure that was just my brain fucking with me again but like I don't know I have so many fucking like moments where the shit this didn't make sense like I was like I'm not even talking about actually it's it's it's it's I just I don't want to relive the trauma I really don't because it gets me fucking raughty. I will say though, the person I'm seeing right now, she showed me this
Starting point is 01:29:15 video that has me really, really baffled. We were talking about this exact thing. It's like supernatural shit. It's like, oh, look at this video where, like, her and her friends were just fucking around in front of like a photo booth on the Mac or something. And they were just fucking around. And then there's like a little bit of silence
Starting point is 01:29:31 and then like a fucking scream. But like none of them in the video reacted to it. I even checked like the, you know how you can get like a visual spectrum of audio. Yeah. How you can tell when things are cut and edited in. I looked at it, no edits. It's the weirdest thing.
Starting point is 01:29:46 I have no way of explaining that. So I'm just going to ignore it. Just to pretend that it didn't happen. That's right what you do, man. Because none of them reacted to it, and it was very audible. Yeah, there's a lot of weird stuff online that I kind of just, I see it, and then I, you do ignore it because there's certain things that, there's certain things that's kind of like if you had the power of, like, necromancy or something like that, there's
Starting point is 01:30:08 certain things that you don't want to fly. fuck with. Yeah, totally. You're like, oh, I, okay,
Starting point is 01:30:12 that's there. I know I shouldn't do this because it's, it's just going to be dire consequences. So, you just don't love with it. I just don't fuck with shit. Like one time,
Starting point is 01:30:19 one of my good, my best friend, like my closest friend growing up, he was like, yo, I'm hearing noise in my basement, man. Like,
Starting point is 01:30:25 I don't know what's going on. And I was just like, he was like, dude, I don't want to go back dude. I don't want to go over myself. And I was like,
Starting point is 01:30:31 man, I'm sorry. Yo, you though, You're my boy, but I'm not going to make it, man. Best of luck. I literally, I literally texted him that. I was like, best of luck, man.
Starting point is 01:30:40 I'm sorry. I hope everything goes well. And I didn't go. And it makes sense. Days later. I was like, yo, you're good. Days later. Like, yo, you're good.
Starting point is 01:30:50 And he was like, bro, you would let me die, man. Luckily, it was my dad downstairs. He was sleeping in a basement because he fell in, he fell asleep down there doing something. But you was going to let me fucking die. And I was like, bro, I'm glad you made it, though. But think about her responsibility. What's the point? Of the point of both of you dying?
Starting point is 01:31:04 The thing is that's what I realize. I live by that law. Like if let's say like there's something happening, like if there's like I come in a house and there's like a roar coming from like the ceiling in the house. And like everybody, I'm like, hey guys, don't come in here.
Starting point is 01:31:16 I'm going to close the door. I'm going to try to do whatever this is. You guys run. Get somewhere safe. Because like you shouldn't be the guy that kills other people, you know? That's what I think. I was like you got to. You don't want to be that asshole.
Starting point is 01:31:26 Not everyone should die. Like let there be a sequel, you know. Let there be a sequel. It is ridiculous Yeah, don't let Don't get other people killed Don't be that guy I think that's really
Starting point is 01:31:38 That's really important Especially I know a lot of like say Women they say like Oh I feel weaker or whatever And I need somebody They need to call somebody or whatever Maybe Gabby was talking about that shit So it might be somebody to like
Starting point is 01:31:50 Call somebody and then you might accidentally get somebody killed Instead of just yourself Exactly It's very selfish For real just don't Yeah Just die on your own
Starting point is 01:31:58 Like come on Yeah you're not that important really Like don't get someone else killed Grow up Like what are you gonna do What if it's a demon? Like what is another person Going to do what gets a demon?
Starting point is 01:32:08 It's like I got magical hands And like what the fuck? Imagine dude You know what's crazy? I would love to see a horror movie Where like there's a demon like possessing people And it's like killing people Then one guy runs up to them and just punches it
Starting point is 01:32:19 I would watch And it like it makes purchase And he gets hit The demon gets in it's like What the other? Everyone's like you've seen Game of Thrones right? Yeah You know when John blocks the White Walker's swing?
Starting point is 01:32:30 Yeah. And he's like, he's like, what the fuck? And the white walker's like, huh? Yeah, he's like, what? I would love to see like a demonic creature's face when it realizes this one can hurt me. No, no, no. It's not even that. It's that they all, it's that everybody can hurt them.
Starting point is 01:32:43 Yeah, like, everybody's too afraid to try because they're so fucking startling. So like a demon, he gets slammed the face. He's like, oh, what the fuck, dude? And then one guy's like, and starts whaling on him. He starts fucking Floyd. He starts Muhammad Aliying him, like fucking old school. George Forming being the breaks off of this demon.
Starting point is 01:33:04 Dude, that actually might be real shit. And you know what? A scary movie, too, actually did something like that where there was this skeleton that was kind of running around and the main chick, whatever, was Anna Farris.
Starting point is 01:33:16 She was like freaking out. And then the black chick in the movie was like, what the fuck? It's just a skeleton. Like, why are you afraid of a skeleton? And then started like, whooping its ass or something. Because it's, and I'm like,
Starting point is 01:33:26 yeah, that's true. It might seem kind of creepy. And indeed, what is it? Unless the demon, like, is hulking with muscles, you know what I'm saying? Unless it got like magical shit. If it got magical shit, then like I'm going to I'm going to be a little more scared, but I'm
Starting point is 01:33:38 still trying to stink attack it. Yeah. I'm still going to wait until it drops his guard and punch it in the jaw when it's not paying attention. Like as long as it's not like a demon you've seen, uh, Fantasia. You ever see Fantasia like the end? You mean Gerbog? Is that it? The big black demon. Yeah. Like as long as it's not that thing, you know what I'm saying? I might try to. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:33:57 The Disney thing, right? Oh yeah. Trunabog or something, right? Yeah. You got a really At that moment, you got to really strategize. I mean, at that moment, you got to really think about what you got to do. He's like, dang, that thing is the size of an island. I'm not getting involved. I'm not getting involved with that. I don't need that.
Starting point is 01:34:11 I'm just, you got to, because look, even running away, it can see you and it can probably do something to stop you from running away. You got to really think on your feet, like, how am I going to get out of this one? Because this is a huge problem. Sora help. Donald. I'm just not. about any of them. You gotta beg for.
Starting point is 01:34:31 God damn. I can't do goofy. You gotta really hope something else is out there that'll give you some power because you're just not on the same playing field as it. Like all the people in Skyrim
Starting point is 01:34:44 fighting dragons and it's just like you're not gonna win that fight. That's not fair at all. Like you gotta hope you're the dragon born because you're fucked. Yeah, that's it. Dragonborn's cool. Everybody else like just a regular
Starting point is 01:34:56 Viking versus Aldoian. That's not fair. Even like a little bit. fight. What's the next question, bro? Oh, my goodness. All right, hold on. Luigi's pasta linguin.
Starting point is 01:35:10 Hi-ho, Fagatini fellows. Hey. Here's a hypothetical. You have the chance of bringing a team of Pokemon into the real world. What Pokemon do you have on this team? Full of dittos. Oh, yeah. I'm just going to have a team full of dittos.
Starting point is 01:35:27 There's no reason. I'm not going to have a team full of dittos because team full of dittos is just like, That can get scary because then they can start impersonated. That's just too many times I can get impersonated. And then therefore it might know more about my life than I do. I would just have them do shit for me. Like go be me today.
Starting point is 01:35:44 You know, it's the closest you can get to having a clone. Go be me. Fulfill this task, please. It'll do it because you own it because that's what the Pokemon is. But can they speak for you? Can they get us? Can they just ditto? I mean, you know, I don't need to speak.
Starting point is 01:36:00 Chris, what if the ditto turning you would have had the ditto face that like happened sometimes in the show where it has that stupid fucking... Oh, just the two dots in the line? Yeah. If it's just the two dots in a line like a normal ditto face? I would laugh at that forever. I'm all right. I'm all right with that. As long as people believe it's me.
Starting point is 01:36:15 They're not going to believe it's you. I'll put on shades. And like the surgical mask because like everybody's sick right now. Perfect. You know, you thought you were around that. That was a good one. Yeah. I don't improvise this.
Starting point is 01:36:28 This is like all I think about this. shit. This is very real. Yeah. What about you? So who's that, who's the, that thick lady Pokemon, the water Pokemon? Oh, Jinks? No, Jinks is the blackface woman. Oh, right. The thick lady Pokemon?
Starting point is 01:36:42 No, is that, am I thinking, no, am I thinking of, uh, maybe am I thinking of a, yeah, she has blackface? Yeah, she has a red lips. Maybe I'm thinking of her. Does she have blonde hair? Yeah. Okay, I'm thinking of that one, right? Don't tell me you to fuck it, Jinks. Well, so.
Starting point is 01:36:57 Come on, man. I mean. I, come on. Come on. I mean, Damn their animals, bro. Come on. I mean, but that's, okay, okay, okay, all right, okay. Not, not jinx then. Never mind.
Starting point is 01:37:10 Okay, I'm gonna do a-shamed into changing his perspective. Like, he didn't really, he doesn't believe this, really. He would still create and fuck this jinx. All right, so his, okay, so I don't know any other, what are other, because I know there's like, what is it, Hitmon, Chan and Lee? Is there any lady Pokemon's like them that have, like, You know the anatomy of like people
Starting point is 01:37:32 The most I think Guard of war has like a very humanest body I guess Who? Guardivore It's like a psychic Pokemon Is that okay I don't know what I don't know what she looks like As a female?
Starting point is 01:37:42 Yeah Chris pull up a picture What is it? Gardivore Gardivore I almost said a god of war Guard of War Guardivore Yeah for me it'd be very simple
Starting point is 01:37:49 I would have a ferraligator That's my favorite Pokemon Easily Ifalegator I'd have one I'd have an arcanine I'd have an Alikazam What? What? What is that?
Starting point is 01:38:02 That's not even... What? What do you want? That's why I can give you. I just... We just... We just Google the picture of Gardivar. I'm just...
Starting point is 01:38:10 I'm trying... Look at it, man. And it's very simple. I'm trying to fuck some Pokemon, okay? I'm trying to... No dancing around it. No tiptoeing around this subject. All right.
Starting point is 01:38:21 Come on, man. That's... Dude, ditto, man. Just get a ditto. It turns in you and you fuck yourself. And then, uh, what is it? What is it? Uh...
Starting point is 01:38:28 Ditto. G. Be Allison Brie for a second. Yeah. I want to Jenny and joy. Like, and then just go to town. So I guess I would get dittos.
Starting point is 01:38:37 And then they would turn into, um, I would get one ditto and I would have it turn into people I hate. And I would just insult them. I was insulting. You just slap them up. You just beat up your own fucking pet after telling it to look like people you hate. I, I would just have a bunch of cool Pokemon that I love from like the games.
Starting point is 01:38:56 I have like a Lucario and Arcanaine for, Alligator, Al-Qazam, fucking one ditto for, you know, my hijinks. Yeah. And then last I would have a Charzard. Yeah. Just everything. Oh, I'd have a Pikachu, actually. No, Pikachu.
Starting point is 01:39:09 I have a little Pikachu on my fucking shoulder. You would waste your time with the Pikachu? Of course. I'd cook a Pikachu. I'd have a Pikachu create racial explosives and electricity in the air. Okay. Now we're cooking. Now we're cooking.
Starting point is 01:39:21 Do you think they could do that? Probably if they wanted to. That world's full of bullshit. They can probably do stuff like that. No, they can't do that. That seems implausible. Or I'd get a mute twin make him make people say racist stuff like in public. Make him say to Edward right now for all these people.
Starting point is 01:39:39 I love it. I love it. I just, I don't deserve power. You would abuse it for the stupidest reasons. Hell yeah, man. I don't really want to like hurt people. I just want to like just do dumb shit.
Starting point is 01:39:49 He would be trying to like control the world and you would just be like just do it. Yeah. Everyone, everyone would say the inward in unison like all over the world. In the UIS, they would have been an American address. Nigs. Everyone, they'd say it at once. Fucking amazing. And I'd be like, whoa, I'm really doing good things with this.
Starting point is 01:40:12 You know, my friend brought up a question, because now we said this unison thing, real quick before we move on, my friend said, if everyone in the world, like, seven billion people all farted at the same time, do you think it would be enough power to move the world slightly? No. No? No. No. No? No. No? No. Everyone in the world. That's only 7 billion people. It's a lot of people, man. It's not a lot of pressure. I mean, all together. They can't move a planet. That'd be impressive. Maybe it did. We'd all be like pushing in opposite directions because we're on a sphere. We'd all be moving very slightly differently. If anything, we would shrink the world a little bit. I mean, we would probably crush it and just compress the planet a little bit.
Starting point is 01:40:53 I know we would The ozone would be a little fucked We would Maybe I'd tap that up a little bit I want to create a bomb That's so big It fucks up the Earth's orpid
Starting point is 01:41:03 That's possible It's very possible It's terrifying Because earthquakes have Slightly Fucked up The rotation a little bit Or the act
Starting point is 01:41:13 No not the axis I guess Yeah Can you imagine what If the world Just completely Stop spinning We would fly off of it
Starting point is 01:41:21 Probably We'd fly off of it Like, it'd be weird. We'd be in the middle of doing this and then everything would just, we'd fly and then we'd smash against everything and just turn into fucking pink mist. We would be past. If the world would be stuck in that season, it'd be that season permanently forever. Assuming that that's how that would work. Because like I'm sure if the world stops spinning, we probably wouldn't feel it.
Starting point is 01:41:45 No, like, we would definitely feel it. The world's moving pretty fast. Exactly. The world is moving pretty fast and we don't feel that. Exactly. Because of the fact how it's moving is being pulled in like a, it's orbital, centripical orbit of orbital or something like that. So that's what we don't feel it.
Starting point is 01:41:59 Because we move and then we get pulled somewhere else. Therefore, we're getting kept on the planet. If it stopped moving, we would just jettison away. That's not how that works. It literally is how it works. So gravity just doesn't work? No, gravity still works. But the thing is that if a planet came to an abrupt stop, like a car comes to an abrupt stop,
Starting point is 01:42:17 you get shot somewhere. Right. It's just force ending. If it just stopped, it would just go. But the car isn't the thing that's... But no. Yes. That's not how that works.
Starting point is 01:42:27 Literally yes. Because the car isn't the thing that's rooting you to the fucking ground. It's not really to the ground, but there's still gravity while you're in a car, you know? And if the car is... I understand. If something's in motion and then it just stops. I understand. The motion disappears.
Starting point is 01:42:40 All that energy from the motion still has to go somewhere. So everything that would be on the ground would just get shot into somewhere. I really don't think that that's what would happen. I think it would. Wait, what do you, okay. If the world just abruptly stopped. Yeah. You think everybody would be falling off of it.
Starting point is 01:42:57 If the world is doing this motion, like circling around or revolving around wherever it is, right? And then it just stopped. The things on it would get sent somewhere because the motion just ended. Well, yeah. Yeah, think of it as like, say you were born on a car going 100 miles an hour and the car never stopped. And then just out of nowhere it stopped. Then, yeah, you're going to fucking. You're going to get moved.
Starting point is 01:43:19 Something's going to happen to you. Right. But this is with its own separate. dependent force of gravity like the car isn't the the thing that's no the car the car isn't the thing that has gravity
Starting point is 01:43:28 I know the thing that's not keep exists everywhere like it doesn't matter gravity is everywhere so things will fall back down but things will be shot somewhere there's not there's not enough there's not enough gravity
Starting point is 01:43:40 to keep us in place at the world stopped no no it would it would it would the gravity still exists so things would go flying and then something that didn't jettison away
Starting point is 01:43:51 out of wherever it would go would just fall back down eventually. Sure, sure. This feels like saying if you jumped, if you were outside and you jumped, you would get pulled into the sky at the rate that the world is actually spinning. No. That's what that sounds like you're saying. No, I'm just saying that if the world was to stop moving right now.

Starting point is 01:44:43 pod. Say hi, Dan. Hey, how's it going today? It's going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw billboarded years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 billion is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and batter and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident. Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from your cell phone.
Starting point is 01:45:26 We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call. 24-7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, from, thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. Like this halt, not slow down eventually, just come to a complete halt, then we would get flung somewhere. This sounds so not Chris, what do you think it would happen if the world came to a complete, like, just halted? I don't know, because it's such an incomprehensible scenario. It's insane, but I just think of it like... I don't think it's incomprehensible with, like, say, just imagine, you know that fucking, that UFO ride of the carnival and shit?
Starting point is 01:46:07 Like, after a while, I mean, after a while, you can kind of start to move with it, even though it's not, it's kind of a bad analogy. But the whole thing is, if that thing just fucking stopped, everybody would go flying, dude. Right. Literally. You just go from somewhere. So why wouldn't that happen with the world, you know, just coming to a complete home? It's like because the world is the thing that's keeping people on it. Like that's like, I don't think the speed of the earth isn't what's keeping people on it.
Starting point is 01:46:31 It's not the speed of the earth. I'm just saying it we're rotating with it. We're in motion. Yeah, we understand that. We're like, we don't feel any of the Gs or anything like that because we're completely used to its speed. Right. So if it completely came to a stop, it's like if we're going to feel that. If you're in a car and a car is more.
Starting point is 01:46:49 moving and you're missing the point. No, I understand. The car is moving on a planet that is keeping the car on it. If you stop on, if you stop in the car, yeah, you're going to jettison forward because the planet is the thing that's keeping you rooted to the ground and allowing that force to happen. It's not the car. But the thing is that the force, you have to be in a car that somehow has the gravity of the earth to make that comparison. I don't think that's not how that works.
Starting point is 01:47:13 I don't think we would be shot off into the sky. I don't think we'd be shot into the sky. I think you would be shot forward and slamming. I don't think we would be shot forward and slam into shit and die. Just blow up, brother. I mean, you're definitely going to you think, look, if the world slowed down gradually.
Starting point is 01:47:27 Exactly. Then we wouldn't notice it. If it stopped immediately, because the world is spinning at like, what, 22,000 miles an hour or something like that? Very fast. We're all going to fucking jet forward and turn it in a pink mist.
Starting point is 01:47:39 We should test this. I don't want to test it. Squirrels, there are squirrels, right? There are squirrels all over the place. Grab some squirrels will do this. I imagine there is one smart at least one person that's not a complete idiot listening to this podcast. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:52 Um, break it down. But like, there has to be, there has to be something. The person that's going to break it down, do it if you actually know it. Like, don't be some dips shit that thinks they know it.
Starting point is 01:47:59 And then like, come, like, oh, actually it's what happened. Yeah. And then we mean like us. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:48:03 Yeah, of course. We don't know. We're admitting that we don't exactly know. Yeah, we don't fucking know. I'm just, but don't say you know what they don't know.
Starting point is 01:48:09 Yeah. Uh, fucking email your credentials, bitch. That feels that, that feels, wrong? Because it seems too cartoony. You know what I mean? There's something very
Starting point is 01:48:21 cartoonish about it. Like, look, dude, if like I said, if you're traveling in a car and then it automatically comes to a stop, you are going to be jolted. Right. So why wouldn't the world work the same way? Because these are independent things. That doesn't change anything. It doesn't change the way that gravity works,
Starting point is 01:48:38 though. That's still force. That's still more than. Yeah, okay. Speed. That's right. It's still there. The gravity of this panic keeps us on my head. This is such a difficult thing to imagine. I don't,
Starting point is 01:48:49 how is it, that's what I don't understand. I don't think it's difficult, but I think it's just like, you just don't think a shit like that. So I understand how to make it to be like. I do because I remember fucking, uh,
Starting point is 01:48:57 Superman, you know, he, he's fucking reversed the time by, I can't, I can't divorce my understanding of how we traverse the earth from the source of gravity that is on, that is at the center of our planet.
Starting point is 01:49:08 But the thing is not about, it's not being nullified at all. Yeah, it's not about gravity. It's about the, the earth is rotating very quickly. Right. And then if,
Starting point is 01:49:18 if it were to stop, everything on it would be affected by that. All right. I mean, like I said, come on, man. I literally, I straight up. It just sounds like a cartoon. It sounds like,
Starting point is 01:49:31 it is cartoonish because that wouldn't happen. Right. But if it's a hope not. I mean, I can't imagine. Like, what would have to happen? There would have to be some giant galactus fuck
Starting point is 01:49:40 that catches the Earth. That's just a dickhead move. That's just a dickhead thing to do. Some fucking creature that could be doing so much. He just slaps it into the other fucking direction. direction. Some fucking, some fucking celestial creature comes and just stops the earth just for all of us to fucking pop on fucking surfaces and then goes about his business. He was fucking listening to this podcast and he's like, all right, Chris, you want to find out? You want to fucking know how this works? He's like, I got you fam.
Starting point is 01:50:03 Yeah. This fucking stops it. Do it. Fucking stop the earth. No, don't do that. If anybody has the capability to stop the earth, I would love for you to stop it because I just want to see what happened. I don't want to see what happened because I don't need that. I don't know. Part of me feels like it wouldn't be that drastic. I feel like you would definitely feel it, but I don't know if you, I don't know if people would be like shot into the fucking It would be very dry. I don't people would be shot into space. Dude, it's spinning so fast. I know it's spinning super fast. Think of how much speed. That's a lot of speed that's just gone. Right. On a surface that is as big as this planet. Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:35 Like, 84,000 something. I forgot what was. I recently just saw how big. But you understand, like the speed is so fast and yet, like, we don't feel that speed at all. Yeah, we don't because we don't maculate. We get, we get to the point where it's just. Like you've seen all the fucking action films, right? When you're, um, car, there's a car chase and somebody's like on top of a car and then they jump to the other car. As long as they're going the relatively same speed, you're not going to fucking like fly into some crazy ass. So like we're on the earth going as fast as the earth is going. Right. We're spinning with it.
Starting point is 01:51:06 And so the thing is if it changed. Except you don't see any of that reinforced in like the way things operate on the planet. Like the, like the wind isn't moving at like 260 degrees all the time or like 260 like. miles per hour all the time. That's what I'm saying. But the thing is that... I feel like it would affect things differently on the planet if things were just to stop. I don't know if it would be exactly the way they were imagining it.
Starting point is 01:51:25 The thing is that everything on the planet is relative to how the Earth has been going for X amount of time. Right. So everything that we have on this planet has been based off of the Earth moving in this exact speed, being in this X location from the sun. Like all of that is just pre-built in. Right. It already affects it because it's here happening. Pretty much is what I think it is. Like everything works because it's been in the sun.
Starting point is 01:51:47 able to work this way. It's not because this, like, it's just how things have been. I'm sure you're probably right. It just sounds impossible to me. I mean, it's, I, I definitely agree that I can't imagine that ever happening. Yeah, because that... It's hard to imagine. The way that the earth is... It's hard, it's hard, it's hard to even... It's hard to even... It's hard to even
Starting point is 01:52:05 it's hard to even imagine that the earth currently is moving that fast. You know what I mean? Yeah. So the idea of it's stopping and it having like some kind of comedic cartoon effect on everybody is just like... I see that's why, like, it's hard to imagine that the earth's is spinning that quickly because we're just living on it. But I feel it's the same way as an airplane. You're on an airplane going at least 500 miles an hour
Starting point is 01:52:23 and you don't think shit about it. True. And then if it just stopped, everyone's fucked. Everyone's snapping their necks. Everyone's Superman for a lot. Everyone is snapping their necks at 500 miles an hour. If it somehow we're just able to like, just able to do it somehow?
Starting point is 01:52:37 Like, you know, obviously it's like an impossible thing. Yeah, yeah. But if it were able to do that, everyone's neck snapping. Yeah. I guess so, yeah.

Starting point is 01:53:19 Hey, how's it going? It's going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw billboard of years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion recovered.

Starting point is 01:54:00 cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call. 24-7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit forethepeople.com for an office near you. It's crazy. It's a fucking planet's wild. Shit's like this freaks me out, man. Like thinking about endromical. and the Milky Way are going to collide at some point. Like that, I mean, we'll be dead.
Starting point is 01:54:24 We're not even going to be humans at that moment. We're going to be some other creatures. Like, I've seen simulations of what's going to happen, and I still feel like it's wrong. I feel like everything's going to explode. Like, I don't know, man.
Starting point is 01:54:34 It just, it seems freaky to me. It's like, oh, things are going to, like, kind of melt together and,
Starting point is 01:54:38 like, it's going to kind of pass each other and start to assimilate and then become like one galaxy and shit. And I'm like, I just feel like everything's going to crash into each other. It's going to be so disastrous. but I don't fucking know
Starting point is 01:54:47 I'm stupid The universe is weird man The way physics works like is just The way real actual physics works What if the earth is spinning left, right? Yeah And you're driving right And the earth stops
Starting point is 01:55:02 Will you be fine? No If you're driving at the speed If you're spiting at the speed of the earth If you're driving at the speed of the earth Yes Is spinning And you're driving in the exact opposite direction
Starting point is 01:55:13 And the earth stops Would you be all right? I think by Or would the earth underneath you move? Like, what the f- This is such an incomprehensible conversation? Would you start moving the earth? What just for the speed you're creating,
Starting point is 01:55:27 being able to move the earth? This is getting too stupid, all right? Like, this is a bunch of people that don't understand physics starting to question. These people are going to be so fucking angry. Yeah. These people don't know what the fuck they're talking about. No, we fucking don't. I came here expecting scientific backgrounds.
Starting point is 01:55:42 I have a theory and I don't get anything. I thought all of you had fucking. fucking PhDs of physics. I know biology. I don't really know. I don't really know anything. I don't really know anything. My own chemistry.
Starting point is 01:55:51 Yeah. Let's please move on. Yeah. Please. The person who said affiliancy earlier. That was him. He's going into, is going into nursing.
Starting point is 01:55:59 Hey man. Shit happens. I have an affiliation. You're the type of person to fill out like a patient's form like really incorrectly. No. Surely by accident. I'm just not going to work with the bodies.
Starting point is 01:56:08 Nice. The people. It's weird the people. I'm not going to fill out anything. Nick Carr. That's not right. What's the. the craziest conspiracy theory that you think could be true.
Starting point is 01:56:18 I think this is obvious. Epstein's not. I think it's very popular. It's very possible that here's what I would say. Even just beyond the normal conspiracy theory that everybody seems to agree. I think it's plausible that he's still alive. I don't know. The alive thing is that's where the conspiracy theory comes in, I think, because I feel like
Starting point is 01:56:37 the regular conspiracy theory of that he didn't kill himself is it's so it's. We shouldn't be saying that also too often. It's plausible. I mean, it's not saying that's off week or not saying anything. I'm just saying it's so plausible. It's one of those things that have used Occam's Razor. Yeah. It makes much more sense than all the other things that happened.
Starting point is 01:56:57 He just has so many connections that like a lot of the crazy stuff that would seem impossible seems like very plausible now. It seems like the obvious answer. Also, there's that weird picture of him like dead and it doesn't really look all that much like him. Like it could be, it could just be him and I don't know. I don't know what the fuck's going on. But like I wouldn't, I would not be. I'll put it this way. I'm happy to assume that he's dead currently. But if in like 20 years we find out that he's been on some island chilling or like he's in some witness protection thing in like some other country or like he's in Moscow farming or something.
Starting point is 01:57:29 I don't think I would be surprised by that at all. He's in Moscow playing animal cross. For me, I think that COVID-19 was definitely a bioweapon. Oh yeah? Definitely. I think there's a- It doesn't even behave like regular viruses. That shit's fucking weird. Yeah, like stays on services for like days. It's not normal.
Starting point is 01:57:45 Well, here's the thing. And this is funny. One of my favorite channels on YouTube is called Thoughty-2. This is British dude with a mustache, and he just talks about a really interesting stuff. And one of his episodes that came out a few months ago just kind of popularized because of this virus, because they're saying the CDC and the World Health Organization are worried about this virus X that's going to, like, kill everything. It doesn't exist yet, but they're saying at some point it's probably going to exist. And they're saying that they're more concerned about it. it being caused by nature,
Starting point is 01:58:17 created by nature, than it being created by a person. Because a person, like, say there's a thing, the CRISPR, that you can, you can edit stuff, people, if they do that and create this crazy weapon, people are at least going to know what it stems from, so they'll be able to counter it.
Starting point is 01:58:32 Now, nature can at a certain point because it's always creating shit, always, always mixing together. So it's very possible that this was a strain of the flu, and things are always mixing together, and they just became able to survive, a little bit better. And now it's like,
Starting point is 01:58:46 I'm starting to adapt to certain services. And so it's very easy for it to actually be from nature. Yeah. Now, for it being in the lab, technically it's a very shitty virus, not me, a bio weapon.
Starting point is 01:58:57 It's not good enough. So the one thing that now they could have been on the service of it getting good. And it just seems like to me they could have done a much better job if they were actually going to develop a bio weapon. Oh,
Starting point is 01:59:08 I think, well, I'm not saying that it was used. I'm saying what happened was a bio weapon in testing that got out. Like they were testing, they were like developing something and then it got out. It could have very easily been that.
Starting point is 01:59:18 I agree with that. I agree with that. But you're very, very right how what you call it, how just like diseases are, particularly viruses are constantly like fucking. Because they go inside of somebody and they dip inside of that person. And while then that person, God knows what fucking happened with that person's like fucking lay out of their body and they can just change into something else. Yeah. And the thing about COVID-19 is that no, it's brand new. So no one has immunity to it yet.
Starting point is 01:59:42 We're just not. We can endure it and survive it, but people don't have a built-in immunity to it yet. Like, we have immunity to the flu for the most part. So that's like, it's just fucking. Do we have an immunity to the flu? I think relative, yeah, because it's been around. I mean, some, some, but then there's like different strands that keep fucking people up. That's the thing.
Starting point is 01:59:59 Like, say, I've always, my immunity to the flu has always been pretty amazing. Yeah, I've done once ever in my life. Like, I get, well, I'll get it, but it's just like I'm not sick after two days. Because my body just goes into hyper overdrive. It's the same process Anytime I get the flu One night I sweat it all out It just I become
Starting point is 02:00:19 It's like like a fever dream Yeah I get insanely sweaty Like it doesn't matter what I'm wearing It's drenched in sweat And then I feel great It doesn't make any sense to me I was like wow why do I do this I got it once
Starting point is 02:00:29 I got it one time ever in my life I got the flu when I was like 13 and I was like I was supposed to be like I was at summer camp And I was putting away books And I passed up My brain is totally fucked up
Starting point is 02:00:39 Because I kind of like fevers What the fuck is that? Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. I just think they're weirdly relaxing. That's stupid. That doesn't make any sense. I don't know, man. That's literally the opposite of what human state. You feel like shit. My body doesn't ache during fever. I don't have like body aches. What I have is like I just have chills and I have like what it is. It's like I'm cold and really cold and I'm really hot at the same time. It's something like really kind of neat. I feel like I'm high on something like crazy. Like, ooh, this is weird. You're a sick fuck. You are a sick man.
Starting point is 02:01:08 your body being in a state of of salt on itself makes you feel calm go get the calm it's not when I feel calm it's kind of neat it's just kind of cool that's a weird feeling
Starting point is 02:01:25 it's like uh what do you call it's like the sleep paralysis that's not cool either for me throwing up feels good because after you throw up you feel relieved no there's toxin there's toxins out of me there's a difference like
Starting point is 02:01:37 and I feel like Feeling better, feeling relieved is different than saying you like throwing up. Oh. You like how you, you like the results of throwing up. I like what happens after. Exactly. I've met people who like throwing up, but they can do it on command. Yeah, those crazy shit.
Starting point is 02:01:51 It's disgusting. If I have enough water in my stomach, I can't easily throw up on command. I can, like, compress my stomach and throw up. I remember being young. That's like a fucking snake. Like a venom spewing snake. It's disgusting. One time I did it in school to get out of school.
Starting point is 02:02:03 I was upset. And I was like, fuck it. I just drank a bunch of water and ate something. I was like bready and I puked it. all over myself and left. See, I'd be like That's disgusting. Stand up real angrily and throw up.
Starting point is 02:02:15 See, I would examine your puk and be like, see, that's just a bunch of water and bread. That's some fake bullshit. Get back to fucking class. What is wrong with you? What is wrong with you? Get back to class, you bitch. You did that on purpose. He's swimming it.
Starting point is 02:02:23 He'd wiggle around it. It's like, mm, this is real. He'd put his hand in it and he would just like feel it. You'd feel it. There's no infection here. You're drinking an entire fucking bottle. You're down a couple of slices of bread and then you fucking force yourself a throat. Get the fuck back to class.
Starting point is 02:02:36 You're doing. What are you doing? With your puke covered fucking sure, you idiot He dips his fingers in it He'll He's just tasting it with his hands He's literally transfusing Like he's a fucking fly landing on shit
Starting point is 02:02:51 And like tasting stuff, dude Yo man, that's so gross Fizer's the most disgusting Ever That'd be the worst It'd be the worst thing ever If you taste everything you touch Yeah
Starting point is 02:03:00 You taste like man Everything tastes like denim Everything tastes like denim God damn it That'd be the worst I was gonna make a little joke but I can't I'm not even gonna go there you scratching your balls and shit imagine imagine imagine like imagine just
Starting point is 02:03:13 imagine just going down on the lady and then you're like oh man you put your wing in there and he's like oh man I taste it again man I thought I thought I got past this part already and he got to re-taste it yeah man yeah you definitely should have left that joke out it's really bad yeah it was really bad cut that yeah I won't though oh man we gotta make you look a little bad uh let's so good this podcast we'll go one more all right we'll go one more all right we'll go one more. Well, I'm going to go look through a random one

That's what I do. I That's my fucking spiel You like fucking do the thumb-pointy thing I'm here to tell you that
Starting point is 02:04:15 We as American people need to work together There is no greater threat than the threat of Collapse It was in ourselves There's no greater threat than threat itself There's no greater threat than coronos I'm Joe Biden and I've got to let me tell you something I'm so sad you showed back
Starting point is 02:04:35 I've got all sorts of things fat. Listen to me. You're a line dog face. Pony soldier, I'll tell you what. A pony soldier. I need to... I was there when they made cats, pets. Oh my God. Yo, so in the middle of the night, one of our roommates just said that. He was like,
Starting point is 02:04:50 Joe Biden was the one that made cats pets. He made cats. He just takes credit. He takes credit for domesticating cats. That is such a broad statement. That's such a powerful, powerful statement. Because he's the one that made these
Starting point is 02:05:04 fucking mega killers. these fucking pets he's pussy ass versions yeah now they're all cuddly and shit yeah gotta get up man people bring up ancient Egypt and all the people
Starting point is 02:05:14 who had cats before him and he's like ah you know that's that's not true you know cheetah ancient Egypt is a lie what'd you say cheetahs can be pets she just can be pets
Starting point is 02:05:22 I mean anything can be pets no no like they're like they're not hyper hyper aggressive people have them as pets in Africa it's also Africa and that's kind of a whole place itself yeah that's ridiculous but like people have them as pets

Starting point is 02:06:05 I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod. Say hi, Dan. Hey, how's it going today? It's going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw billboard of years recently that said $20 billion. $1.20 billion is an insane number. Yeah, $20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each year we get bigger and badder and our army grows.
Starting point is 02:06:43 So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do if I got into an accident? Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law. That's pound 529 from your cell phone. We are always open. Our call center is always waiting to take your call.
Starting point is 02:06:59 24-7, 365. Wow. Dan Morgan. From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law, Thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you. Because in Texas, you can have like everything.
Starting point is 02:07:12 Really? There's more tigers in Texas than in the rest of the world. That is so stupid. Texas, what the fuck is anybody here is listening from Texas? Get your shit together. You're on your course to being Florida too. There's more tigers in you than there are in fucking places. The wild, the fucking wild.
Starting point is 02:07:33 Where fucking tigers are supposed to be. God fucking damn it. Imagine going to your friends I see as a fucking tiger. I would be so upset. He probably does. I would cry. I'd be like,
Starting point is 02:07:42 why would you fucking invite me here? Yeah, well, this is Cher Khan right here. This is Tony. This is sheer cone. And this one's Mowgli. Mowgli? This one here is Mowgli.
Starting point is 02:07:54 Mowgli. They're real good like. They don't bite. I got Tony the tiger. We got Tigger. Pigger. Hey, look, there goes a knit. Fat Houdini.
Starting point is 02:08:05 wrote in. He said, when are we getting the Snart Tank video game? Will it just be a clone of Grand The Thadot with Tom Sweeney as every character and NPC in the game? Fuck me softly, F. Houdini. If we had a video game, what would it... If we had a video game, it would just be... It would just
Starting point is 02:08:21 be like parapa-a-rappa but it'd be like this really fucked up shit going across the screening. What? Actually, I'm on board now. I like that. That's a good idea. I don't know where I came from. That was pretty good. I was going to say like a... Like a... Final Fantasy thing with like a party and we all had like abilities but that's a better idea.
Starting point is 02:08:38 I like the parapher the rapper. That would be cool because we just pick up different YouTubers and then eventually we'd stop picking up YouTubers and we just get Derek and Derek would be like the lasting member. It would be the three of us and it'd be like some real heartwarming moments but then we would say some fuck shit in the middle of it to ruin it every time. It would be pretty good. Perap of the Rapper with like but you had to match the insensitivities. I like that a lot.
Starting point is 02:08:58 It's pretty good one. The JRP would be realistic to make it because those are a lot of term based shit. It's a lot easier to make. Oh, yeah, for sure. Someone can actually do that. That would be terrifying. And, hey, I also want to mention that, the guy that just wrote in, what do you say, fuck me gently?
Starting point is 02:09:14 Fuck me softly. What do you say? Said fuck me softly. Softly. I kind of like that. Almost like that as an enduring sign-off, like a little like, like yours truly and shit. Fuck me softly. Like, I think going forward, everybody, if you ride in and that's all you should sign this.
Starting point is 02:09:30 Fuck me softly. It's pretty good. David Davis or whatever. Leave him alone, man. I can't get over his name. I can't get over his name. Poor fucking guy. Oh, man.
Starting point is 02:09:44 I'm not sure a nice guy, dude. Don't let him bring you down. I'm sure he's fine. Don't off yourself, man. You're good. Anyway, we're running on about two hours here. Which is pretty fast, this one. Honestly, it's a fast.
Starting point is 02:09:55 It's a fucking bullshit in the whole time. Yeah, there's a lot of, there's a lot of stupid and a lot of, a lot of dumb science in your dude. Yeah, really, a lot of bad sense. I'm sure we're going to get a lot of comments being like, these fucking idiots. You guys don't understand anything about the fucking planet's rotation. In fact, if you think about this. It's definitely true. We don't know shit about any of that.
Starting point is 02:10:12 I know, asshole. I know a very little bit about a few things. You do not. I know a very little bit about it. You said that the moon is further away than us than the sun is or something. There's some crazy shit. I never said that. I have that on video, my God.
Starting point is 02:10:27 I said that the what you call? I said that the sun. I said some shit about the sun being really, really far away from us than Pluto is. That's what I said And that was wrong That's also wrong I don't understand Space
Starting point is 02:10:37 Yeah Once it leaves Once it leaves Within the place I'm living I don't know shit about That's probably fair Like it's like Oh that could be anything
Starting point is 02:10:47 I say I know a lot But people discover new shit All the time So I probably know shit From like seventh grade And you know My knowledge is like From the 2000s
Starting point is 02:10:56 I know a lot about Very specific things I constantly forget That Pluto's not a planet anymore Like a lot All the time Regularly No, it's a planet again.
Starting point is 02:11:03 No, it's not. They got reinstated. No, it didn't. It did. It's not a planet. As of, like, I think, like a month ago. You're wrong. I'm dead serious.
Starting point is 02:11:10 Look at it. You're wrong. All right. It's a planetoid. No, no. They stopped making them planetoids. I was like, where's this going? I'm just lying to you.
Starting point is 02:11:19 I know. Everybody be safe from the Krono. Yeah, everybody be safe. Stay inside. Triggers getting worse and worse. So I will fucking kill you. Everybody stay inside. Be safe.
Starting point is 02:11:31 Don't be an asshole and spread diseases to old. sickly people. Yeah. Or young sickly people. Or me. Or us, really. Yeah. I heard,
Starting point is 02:11:37 I heard that just being a guy is pretty risky with this whole thing. Yeah. It's particularly worse for guys. Yeah. Men are dying more. So I'd love to hear about this sexism that's apparently everywhere.
Starting point is 02:11:48 Isn't there just more men? That's why men are dying more, I guess. I don't think there is more men. There's more women. Let's play there are men. You know, you know what I think? You know what I think it really is?
Starting point is 02:11:56 How can you be a simp if there's more, there's so much of it out there? How can you be a sip if there's more women than men? Like, Just keep fucking, just keep singing your shot. Also, for a real quick, real quick thing before we end, okay, look, any person that can't get laid, just learn how to be funny. Because you can't be, you can't be ugly and not funny. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:12:18 That is just really not good. That's just a terrorist. Yeah, being funny, being charismatic, like, is really good. That's what you all you. That's why, that's why if you look at this even, uh, to women, fat women usually, like, you know, women that are larger have good personalities.
Starting point is 02:12:39 True. It's really funny and fun and stuff like that. They're just fine. There's great people. Because they don't have to just stand there and be like, I'm hot, fuck me, right? Like, they got to actually try a little bit. And so the same goes for men. If you're a hideous chud, you got to try a little bit.
Starting point is 02:12:52 Yeah, but also don't be a chud. Like, it's really not that hard to be a chud. What just happened? Oh, yeah. I was signing the show off. I'm sorry, man. I just had to, I just have to put that in there because it blows my mind. They're like, just do something about it.
Starting point is 02:13:03 Like, stop, just stop. Quit simping, man. Like, for real. You enrage me. Every day. Enrage against the machine. Okay, goodbye, guys. Yeah, so, yeah, just be safe, everybody.
