fridge, the hens. They're living the good life, fresh air, sunshine, and wide-open pastures.

Hey, everybody.
Welcome to the Snark Tank podcast.
It is, it is, it is us, your hosts.
Chris, Chris Reagan, Derek Blackman, Tom Sweeney.
I'm not, look, this is, this, I'm bummed out beyond belief.
For obvious reasons, I think anybody who's watching the episode kind of has an idea of based on what we're wearing.
but Akira Tariyama
We apparently killed him
We didn't mean to
We mentioned him on the last episode
Of uh
Or we mentioned we went into a large
Or a long conversation about Dragon Ball
And uh just so happened to be
That episode just so happened to go live
The day that we found out that he died
Um
I was streaming live on Twitch when I found out
And it ruined
I was like
I was just silent for like 10 minutes
And then I just ended this I was like
I can't this is
this is this hit me a lot harder than I expected
and so yeah I don't I don't I don't know it's it's crazy
yeah hit me extra hard when I looked into it
because you know there was a couple of people saying
ah you guys did it this always happens you guys it's your curse
and I'm like shut up shut the fuck up but then I I wanted to look more into his death
you know what happened and he left a note behind
left a note behind
and he said
my favorite podcast
the snark tank
really
broke my heart
I thought the best thing I have ever written to date
was Dragon Ball Super
and I thought my most brilliant idea
was Ultra Instinct
I can no longer be a part of this
plane of existence
I leave behind
a legacy
but
I can't
go on any further.
Right.
Peace out my niggas.
And then he literally flew into the sun.
Yeah, he actually, it turns out he's, he was actually a saying.
That's where he got the idea from.
Yeah.
It was pretty, that he just flew into the sun because he was like, I'm done.
My favorite podcast, the snark tank.
Yeah.
Like, who would have thought?
It's crazy.
Yeah, it's wild.
Happy birthday, by the way, Derek.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I found out on my fucking.
birthday that the
goat of manga in my opinion
right not the most
best written shit like shut the fuck up
but at least the most influential
and the one that I care about the most
any anime show that I care about the most
you know the goat
I'm like are you fucking kidding me
I'm fucking yeah I'm on Twitter
before I go to bed
you know I was playing dragons dogma
dark or isn't good preparing for the new
shit
forgot how fun that game is
and uh yeah
I was like, are you, like, I just stayed, I, I, I slept like three hours because I was just like, I don't even, like, I don't feel like, it's not good, you don't go to bed on that right away.
Like, oh, someone I really respect that. I'm going to go to sleep now.
Yeah, it's, it's what I was already having a terrible two weeks.
So this was not a great, this was not a great cap off to really any of it.
But like, man, yeah, I mean, yeah, like you said, just, I really, seeing the outpouring of support on Twitter,
from like every corner of the unit,
like people that have almost no business talking about it.
I took a break from Twitter and I had,
I had to make an exception just to say something
because it was that fucking wild.
And easily probably like one of the most influential people ever, I think.
I, like, it's kind of insane.
And like the sheer, yeah.
I would go as far as to say he's the most influential Japanese person of all time.
I feel like that's not a reach
You might be right
But then at the
Yeah
I don't
I don't know
It's like him or Godzilla
From the most from Japan
The two most influential being
From Japan are him and Godzilla
It's a wild
Strait
I was I was trying to think of maybe like
You know
It's a wild statement
Someone who changed the like
The way like warfare
Or I was trying to think of something
That really changed
The direction of history
I was trying to go back
and this guy
It's Musashi
It's Musashi
It's Godzilla
Akira Toriyama
Those are the three
Most influential characters
You say that
So you're talking about the niggas
Are you talking about that one?
Yes
Are you talking
Okay
So you say that right
And you say
You say he might be the most
Influential Japanese man
That's ever existed
And that sounds crazy
But I also don't necessarily
feel like it's wrong
I don't.
Especially in modern, the modern world, 100% I think it's him.
In modern, that is, I feel like that's easy to say.
I think that it's easy to say modern.
You might say somebody associated with Oda?
Yeah, they got to be one piece.

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 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 Lawfram, thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you.
Okay.
I thought, okay.
Well, that is kind of tied into, that's kind of the thing.
That's like folded into character.
It's only him than Oda.
Those are the two most, like, influential people from a lot of time.
But Oda, but Oda is, that's kind of the thing.
It's like that, it all, it all,
stems from him. That's what's crazy about a Kiratoreana.
I wouldn't say it all stems
for him, but the reason it got popular here
is because of him. Without
him stepping out first, making
all those art design. It's like
when it comes to design from
Japanese characters, there's that dude
that did all the final fantasy designs. I forgot
his name. The one that also did Vampire Hunter
D. There's that dude who's an
icon in design. And then there's
literally Toriyama.
Those are the most like
influential. But here's the big difference. I don't know.
and characters.
You know,
you know his art.
You know his art 100%,
but you wouldn't know his name.
Sure.
It's just like,
say, a lot of people know
the art of like,
there's a lot of
comic book artists, right?
There's like a gym.
There's people,
they'll know some people that are,
but they don't really know them.
Like,
you have to be into it.
You're right.
Yeah, so, but like Akira Torya,
I feel like anyone who's watched anime at all,
they know this dude.
Yeah.
Dragon Ball,
he's like the surface level.
Dragon Quest.
Various manga's,
his, uh,
the freaking show about that little alien nigga that that shows up in dragonball super that was a whole manga
before dragon ball was a manga and then there's dragon ball dragon ball z dragon ball gt dragon ball super
there's just he's he's done so much literally the just by far there's not there's nothing that comes
even close like if you if you go to like third world countries and everywhere around the world
a lot of those dudes are like one piece i don't care like yeah i've heard of one thing balls all the way
up here and then one piece is like here.
It's just the gap is so large.
Just like say, oh, who's the, who's the most followed,
the second most followed person on YouTube, the gap is so, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
No, it's nuts, man.
Yeah, it's crazy.
You can tell a Cartel member,
the Cartel member will spare you if you bring up Goku.
That sounds crazy.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
He's about with Goku like this and he's just like, I.
Did you see, did you see the, did you see the, I love, I love,
all the tweets going around and going, like, check on your Latino friends or whatever.
It's so, it's so funny.
And it's totally real.
Like, it hit me like, it made sure she was fine.
I was like, it hit me like a fucking, it really hit me like a ton of bricks, man.
Like, it was crazy because I just thought back to like, man, this dude's art is like,
plastered indefinitely, like, in my memory of my childhood.
Like, actually.
Like, I do not have a childhood without that art being like very, very prevalent.
Like, more so than probably any other kind of.
art, I think.
Like, actually.
Like, every kid
in the 2000s
tried
to fucking go super
say it like a retard.
They tried to do like
the commande
and they thought maybe
they maybe thought like
maybe if I, if I,
if I do this,
maybe something will happen.
And it's crazy.
I had posters.
I had, I played those games endlessly.
I had,
it was like one of the rare.
I didn't,
my parents had like a VH
collection, an extensive VHS collection, like, Disney stuff, and, like, just other movies,
and, and that's, you know, that was our VHS collection.
But, like, I remember the only VHS is that I, that I ever went out and got with my own
money were these Dragon Ball Z sets, where, like, the other side of the VHS had, like,
art on them.
And you could, like, make this whole, like, picture.
Right.
Like, I went out of my way to get those.
And, I don't know, it's, it's crazy.
I've fallen off of anime in, like, a large...
By like a large degree.
Yeah, because you're a normally functioning male adult, for the most part, I understand.
For the most part.
Yeah.
But like, yeah, dude.
It's crazy.
Like, when you talked about like kind of some memorabilia or things, like say, posters and stuff, I remember actually thinking I had a almost like a portal to the future since I knew when America would get the dubbed version of Dragon Ball Z.
It was so fucking delayed.
To the point where if I'd go to Franken's as a kid,
there would be stuff available there that you would have no idea.
It was like huge spoilers because you didn't know.
When I got a poster that Krillen having hair well before he stopped shaving his head.
And I was like, what the fuck is this?
Because so, because me, just like anyone else, we all just thought he was just fucking bald.
Like we didn't know we actually could grow hair.
Wait, how long?
Wait, how long?
Because I'm confused, right?
Because for me,
Dragon Ball always exists.
Like, I,
how'd I explain it?
I may have watched Dragon Ball at one time,
but it existed so well before me that I understood like,
oh yeah,
I may be watching this now,
but this is way further than I'm crazy.
Because I was like,
I thought I was watching GT and Dragon Balls
simultaneously at times.
That is insane.
Really?
I had no concept of GT
at all.
No.
I remember,
I remember watching,
I remember playing
Dragon Ball GT
final bout on the PS1
in like 1999
or like 2000 or something
before I had even seen
the show or like knew
anything about it.
It was Budakai
that got me into it.
I went over to a friend's house
and he like,
he was playing this fighting game
and I thought like,
what the,
this is so,
what the hell is this?
This is cool,
whatever this is.
And it's like,
oh,
it's a fighting game based on the show.
And I was like,
a show.
Huh?
And I remember the first game
The first game I got for the PS2
And the first, like I got a PS2 for Christmas
For my birthday and I remember it was Budakai
Because I asked for it relentlessly
And I spent so much time playing that game
And Budakai 2 and Budakai 3 and Budakai Take Kaiichi
To the point where like I don't know if I would be as into video games
As I am
Without those games like sincerely
Interesting
It is fucking crazy
Guys, like the GITT
I remember seeing right
I gotta see when the American dub
Let's see
Because the series premiered in Japan GT in 96
The beginning of 96
Which is like wild
So that's why for me like
I don't know
I guess my uncle was a nerd too
So I always kind of knew there was other
Because like I would watch
For me I would watch
For me I would watch Dragon Ball
Like after school I'd come home
And then they'd go up to a certain point
Then it'd restart
And I'd be like damn
That was like Tsunami
You're talking about Tunai
Yeah I'm like damn
That shit was the fucking worst man
Man, that shit was...
You know how many times?
I got to the just before the point going, I went Super Saint 2, and it just restarted again.
And I was like, yo, just show...
I know he goes Super Saint 2.
I saw it in the book.
Let me just see him do it for years.
That shit was fucking wild.
I fully watched Dragon Ball from start to finish when I was like a ninth grader.
I was a ninth grader.
My friend had all the DVDs and that's summer we watched all the Dragon Ball Z.
So I knew all about the series.
Like, all right, cool.
I finally finished it.
But I kept seeing bits and pieces.
I saw like Goku and Virgin.
I also got YouTube on that time as well, too.
So I saw Goku of Virginia Fuse.
I saw the movies.
And I was like, all right, cool.
I know the whole series,
but I never sat down and watched it piece by piece by piece by piece.
Right.
And eventually I was like,
all right, cool.
I watched this whole thing.
I know what's going on.
I get it.
But as a kid, I was like, I'd watch it.
I would see the face off.
The classic episode would turn on would skip would be the face on where
Virginia and Goku, not Virginia and Goku.
Freezing, Goku are like standing and stay at each other.
And then it does like,
where it cuts the freezes like face looking at them
and then go looking at him and then it would
restart all the time on tsunami
and I remember being so
full of hate every time I got to that point
you know what pissed me off about that they probably
wouldn't have had to do that if they just did it
a weekly episode like most
television shows were but they ran it
throughout the week they would do
they would do multiple episodes a week
and so then and then they had to restart it
and so it felt fucking awful
instead of just like anything else
where I'll I'll fucking watch
over the new episode on a weekly basis
we could have done that
but whatever but but
it was dope as hell getting a new episode
of Dragon Ball Z every day
It felt pretty amazing at the week
That was like at the time
I remember even at the time that was wild
Because like my perception of shows
It was like yeah once a week
For like maybe two months
I didn't understand new shows personally
I didn't I was like
Things continue sometimes I guess
SpongeBob does it.
No, that was the thing
That was the thing for me too
Where it's like I didn't really like at the time
I didn't really grasp serialized cartoons
Because like a lot of the cartoons that I would watch
Like Curves the Cowardly Dog or like whatever
Like there was no continuity to it
It was just like beginning middle and end
And then there was just new scenarios
And then I remember seeing one episode of Dragon Ball Z
Like I don't remember exactly what episode it was
But I remember it's like oh that was cool
And then the next one continued it
And I was like what?
On the next episode of Dragon Ball
Ray.
On the next. That guy
What's that fucking guy that on the next episode of Dragon Ballsie?
Is that full still alive?
Is he alive?
He has to still be alive.
No way.
No way.
That guy was like 60.
I mean, he sounded like he was like old as shit, but you never know.
Sometimes voice actors will surprise the fuck out of him.
He was like, oh, this dude was like 20 when he was doing this.
He was like seven.
That was a seven-year-old dude.
Oh, the next.
The best compliment, really truly the best compliment that I can pay to that show.
is that it almost refuses to not be iconic.
Like, there's really nothing that you can do to it that mitigates it.
Like, even, like, when they brought it to America and they were like, hey, all right, listen,
we're going to get Bruce Falconer in here and we're going to, like, fill it with music that wasn't there.
And we're going to, like, get rid of the Japanese score.
Still fucking iconic, arguably, like, crazy, crazy good.
And then, oh, we're going to, like, um...

Thanks for having me.

We're going to do all of these different dubs.
Even the shitty ocean dub is iconic.
Oh, we're going to have, oh, there's a parody abridged version.
And it's like, oh, that's iconic.
It, like, refuses to not be great.
Like, no matter, it's what, I've never seen anything like it really to this, like, to this day in anything.
Like, if you took the soundtrack out of, like, Game of Thrones and, like, replaced it with some new soundtrack.
Everybody would be like, what the fuck?
The fuck is this.
This is fucking absurd.
Yeah.
Maybe, like, why?
It just be like, why did you do that.
point where the, what is it called
the House of the Dragons or whatever the fuck it's
called? They just use the same fucking theme
song. They're just like, just
slap it in there. Exactly. They were like, oh, this is
good, right? Yeah, let's just use it.
No point. To be honest, I was not expecting that.
I was the same world.
It was the same world. But it's a different show. So I was not
expecting that. That show was funny. It is wild
that they did that. But like, dude, like everything, every bit of
music that's like, even when they put, we have some questions about the music too going in.
But we'll get, there's some people who wrote in about Akir Turyama and it's fair that we get to
them.
But like, even just like dragon, dragon, walk to dredan, like, chala, he chala and fucking Bruce
Falcuner themes and the Japanese themes, like it's all so good.
Yeah, it all.
It all works.
And it's, um, it's wild.
Like, uh, we lost a legend, I think.
Yeah.
And it's, it's fucking, it's so funny that it happened during the state of the union, too,
because no one gave a fuck.
about what Joe Biden had to say.
Like, I didn't.
Yeah.
I didn't care.
It's an election year.
I couldn't give less of a fuck what he had to say.
I didn't watch it.
I feel really bad I didn't watch it.
So the interesting thing is there was notes.
I had notes before it happened.
The key points he was going to focus on.
And so I was like,
okay, whatever.
Because I just kind of knew.
I don't really give a fuck about what Sleepy Joe was going to say.
And especially because I know it's not going to be what I'm looking for.
Like, hey, ceasefire.
Instead of like,
We need to get some food over there because, you know, they're starving.
I believe in you, the American people.
It's like, okay, cool.
All right.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
I can't believe in this day and age.
We're just letting this shit still happen.
It's fucking blows my mind.
So, like, I don't know.
Have you?
But have you guys?
We'll get into some questions, too.
But like, have you, I don't know, man, have you ever seen, like, this degree?
Like, I feel like the closest, this degree of outpouring.
I feel like the closest thing that I can remember that's adjacent to this was when
when Michael Jackson died and, like.
everybody that I knew was talking about it
but that was before like Twitter really
like it was early early early Twitter and it had no
real relevance but like I can't think of a person
who's like a big celebrity who's died recently where
every fucking like politicians
and fucking heads of state
of like everyone
loves Dragon Ball's Dragon Ball Z man
it has something for everybody especially
a lot of people who don't like the mindless fucking retarded
power levels and all that stuff.
They'll even defer to the
OG Dragon Ball series
where you know it was very like adventurous
and comedy heavy.
And like it's just it they
really has something for
fucking everybody like really.
And like even that even that
by the way. Can I say can I say that too
by the way? It's like you start your
you start a series off and it's like a
comedy about a martial arts comedy
about this this kid
going around having
Wacky Adventures.
And then you jump the shark so drastically.
And everyone is on board.
He's an alien, actually.
And this is his brother.
And also, like, there's demon, like the degree.
But the orders of magnitude that the show shifted, the second of God and
is crazy.
And to be able to do that and to maintain a show and still be, like, arguably, I mean,
I don't even think it's arguable.
I think Dragon Ball Z is more popular than the original Dragon Ball.
Absolutely.
Probably not by like a ton.
No, by enough to notice.
I don't buy a lot, dude.
People,
I know a lot of people that have never even bothered watching Dragon Ball.
Because people didn't,
people didn't,
people didn't know about,
because we didn't,
we didn't get Dragon Ball at the same time we got Dragon Ballsie first over here.
No, no, no,
again, we got Dragon Ball.
No, that's not true.
I'm pretty sure we got Dragon Balls first.
That's not literally true, but like, I think, I think.
As a dub, first?
Yes, yes.
Really?
I think, I think for sure.
We got,
Absolutely.
It wasn't on Tunei.
I found out about Dragon Ball
significantly after.
I used to watch it.
I think children got access
to Dragon Ball Z first
or easy access to Dragon Ball Z first.
I think that's what happened.
Probably through Tsunami,
but it was on...
Through Tsunami.
I can't remember if it was on 11 or 13.
I can't remember what channel was on
but because there was a handful of anime
I would watch around five in the morning.
There'd be like Dragon Ball.
There'd be Ronan Warriors.
Just, well, really those two.
There would just be Dragon Ball and Rone and Warriors
would be the only two things
that were on like early morning
on the,
on the regular fucking national television channels or whatever.
A network or whatever is it,
whatever you call it,
fucking Spence so long as I watch TV.
But, uh,
yeah.
It was,
I mean,
we can just look,
I can just look that up real quick just to make sure I'm not Mandelowing myself,
but I'm pretty sure I,
I,
um,
I was well aware of,
uh,
you know,
King Piccolo and everything before,
um,
you know,
he turned into Dragon Ball's,
yeah,
I didn't,
yeah,
I didn't know,
because I got introduced to it through video games
and they were there were just, I only
ever saw Dragon Ball Z video games. I don't think there was a
single, like maybe there was a Dragon Ball game
on like the fucking NES or something.
I found out about Dragon Ball way first.
Dragon Balls was a way, way
first. And I watched
Dragon Ball afterwards and I still think
Dragon Ball's a better show. I still
stand by that. I think Dragon Ball's a better show.
Well, as far as it being written, sure.
But I think that Dragon Ballsie
obviously is iconic because of fucking super
sane. You can say that about a lot
Stuff, though, right?
Like, the thing that you enjoy the most is not the best written thing, right?
Like, there's a lot of...
The only reason I enjoy Dragon Ball is even more as a Gohan.
That's literally, like, his God's my favorite character.
Other than I prefer to watch Dragon Ball.
And personally, that's me.
I like Gohan as an adult, and that's it.
I think everything else about Gohan upset me.
Yeah, yeah.
I like Vegeta and Vegeta's not in Dragon Ball, so I have no interest.
But...
Vegeta is goaded, though, yeah.
And I like Piccolo, too.
I just love, like, man, I love the...
I always loved when it did restart.
I love a bunch of Dragon Ball characters.
I'm capping on my ass.
When it did restart, though, I love a bunch of them.
I love, like, just the simplicity of them preparing to fight raddits.
I thought that was so...
It was so grounded.
I loved how grounded it was.
I love how low their power levels were.
Like, I love the origins of, like, that seemed like such a big fucking deal.
And then to the point when Napa and Vegeta shows up, and then, like, there's that...
When Goku comes back from Snake...
way or road
where the fuck it was called
then all of a sudden
his power level is so oh my
it's not even 10,000 yet
and it's just like it's so cool
it's so cool and then like
that's why what I was saying
and if anybody was upset
talking about Dragon Ball Super
I just feel like
and my point was
that stuff feels like it's so unimportant
even though it's some of my favorite moments
in the series
because it's just like
damn that shit's nothing
like you said like the kids of
that series would beat the absolute piss out of any of those characters at that point
because the power levels are so fucking crazy now.
It's just a journey, you know?
Like, for me, like, I, like, I respect it for what it was.
Like, I think it's very funny that, like, remember when they were training for the sands
and everybody was getting their asses, whooped?
They were going through that, like, that nightmare dimension and getting beat to shit
constantly over and over again.
And then Napa and Vodita show up and they were stronger than what they predicted.
were going to be and it's like damn dude that's so unfortunate man and then gohan had to watch
piccolo get killed in front of him as a three-year-old and watch his mentor get dead that was that was a
very formative memory for me too see like because i that was the first cartoon where i think i saw
someone die oh yeah yeah like a cartoon like a cartoon it might be up there for me like i i i i i i
don't know if I've ever I ever outside of like I don't know maybe like a movie you know what I mean
like like some like some I don't know so like Bambi or something that doesn't count it's a fucking
deer I could give I couldn't care less about Bambi's mom it's insane but but like I remember when
when Frisa killed Vigida on Namick when the death beam through the heart mm-hmm and he's
crying and I'm like and I'm like this is that was such a funny moment for me bro this is
this is heavy as fuck for me this is wild what the fuck and
then it ends and then it ends and you're like what the
fuck I have to wait till tomorrow to see
and then it restart how many times did Kremlin get killed
or wait no he didn't get killed the first time it was just a
in the I was thinking on NAMIC
On Namik he almost got killed at one time when
Friza fucking boarrammed him
he got bored he made it though he made it though
he made it then they saved it then
then he ex I laugh I vividly remember
laughing when Quinn he exploded
because that is
such an extreme way to die.
It was so not nice.
It was so.
The funniest death was, like, the death that was funny for me was that
Vegeta death because Vegeta was being a cunt all before that.
He was talking shit because I really think Vegeta is watching a different show from a,
like what Vegeta is experiencing and what we're watching was different.
I think like his mind, it was a different thing going on.
He was talking shit the whole of the time.
He was just described a character, I think.
He was just like, I'm the shit.
No one can fuck with me.
I beat up Zarbon.
I punch Jason his face.
I'm the fucking God punch butters.
I'm the shit.
And then he's on the ground slivering and crying.
And it feels like shut up and just death beats him in the middle of him trying to have
his final words.
And I'm like, yo, that was so.
He had just beat up Goh.
He was picking on day.
He shoved over that day, literally, I'm pretty sure.
Like just a schoolyard jerk.
And I'm like, this guy is so mean.
Why is he mean like that?
So good.
And then you realize he's mean because he was a slave to the guy that killed his whole race.
And I'm like, oh, well, damn, man.
You got it, Vegeta.
Maybe next time, buddy.
Good stuff.
Good shit.
Let me start on Piccolo.
Best characterizing in the series.
I love Piccolo.
I think it was Jace.
I think Jase is the best character.
Chase is the best character.
No, Jason.
We actually have a good question.
We have a good question here, actually.
Let's go.
Akir Toriyama is the goat Rip Roden.
He says, in honor of the goat, anime creator passing,
what are each of your favorite DBZ heroes and villains besides Vigida?
Because that's a given.
What about your favorite moment from the series?
Any cherished memory?
We talked a little bit about that, but like I think favorite heroes and villains is a pretty good jumping off porn.
For me, it's Gohan.
Specifically teen, Gohan.
And of course, the Android sales saga as a whole.
Yeah.
So, hero and villain, hero, man, that's kind of, I mean, he didn't say I couldn't exclude Goku,
but I just do appreciate just Goku for being a mindless fight.
Like, he's a perfect, like, if he could have been a soldier, he's the literal perfect soldier,
because he doesn't care about anything else other than just getting strong and defeating his enemies.
I disagree. I think he's more depth than that.
But he's...
No, he's literally written that way on purpose.
But he has more depth than that.
No, he doesn't. He's written that way on purpose.
He doesn't even fuck his wife.
He just, he's really...
Like, he's written this way on purpose.
I think what happens is that...
You're putting depth into him when there's no doubt.
There's depth into Goku.
Okay, give me an example of him having doubt.
Goku's nature is to see the better in people.
That is his nature.
He wasn't always like that.
He became like that after he hit his head.
But he does see the...
the better because he's in
when he was a fucking infant you mean
when he was gonna be said to kill
the fucking yeah
it's like if it was the infant
when we first saw him
he didn't have any personality before that
huh well yeah
let me have any personality
because what happened is
the whole of his life right
he's constantly
been set that these people
are villainous evil people right
he's like this is a bad guy
other than the what you call
the um the red room army
they would think he's evil
they were actually just Nazis
but most of the
the time the people that he ran into, they were evil. They were his opposition, but he managed to
talk to them and make them better people. Success starts with your drive, and American Public

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 a 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. I mean,
America's large injury law from thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit for the people.com for an office near you.
Because of his nature of not being an evil murder.
Not on purpose though.
I mean, but it's still happened.
It happened but not like so, but it's no, so there's no, there's no depth to him.
It's just him being so ignorant to what these people are actually trying to do.
It's him being like, I respect you as a fighter.
You're a really good fighter.
Do you have to do the fucked up things you do?
That's not what he's doing it though.
He's just like he.
If you remember most of his fights,
he just really wants to test his strength.
That's really what he could.
That's why it's like, oh, here's,
Cell, here's a Sintu Bean.
I want you at your best.
Like, it's not about, like, I care about you.
That was for another reason either.
Also, I think it's stupid
because he wanted to show that Gohan could do it.
I think that was dumb.
Think about the Dragon Ball Super.
Drink about the Dragon Ball Super.
We don't count that.
We don't count that.
We don't count.
It's still, it's the same thing.
I'm just saying.
It's not, it's not the same.
It is.
Super he's actually a moron.
Super he's actually a moron.
He's genuinely like, I'm fighting just to get stronger.
That's different.
He's not fighting to get stronger.
He's fighting to test the best people.
He's always wanted that.
That is all he's ever cared about.
When he went to fight Friza, he went to fight Friza
because of the fact that he knew that Friza was on his way
to come destroy the Earth Ventry.
So he was like, I'm going to go to NAMIC
and I'm going to try to stop him.
It wasn't about getting stronger then.
It wasn't that.
When he fought Vigida in them, he went there to stop them.
It wasn't about getting stronger.
Am I? Do I remember if, am I misremembering,
but didn't he?
let him get to his final form because he wanted to test him at his best.
Yeah.
Am I misremembering that?
That was on, that was on, that was after the fight already started.
He was like, you destroyed all these things.
You heard all my friends.
I just like, I think that's a case closed.
I think if you're like, if it's about, I don't think it's important really.
I think the point is like it happened.
Like, whatever his is, I do look, I think there's a little more.
He's not very deep.
I'll start with that.
He's not a very debt.
I think he's a way worse and super.
I think he's kind of written like that on purpose.
I like that purpose.
But he's a
He is a static.
I don't know, man.
Like, there's, I, I look at Goku as like a great example of, like, how to write.
Like, you can write heroes in a way that they don't necessarily need to have these, like, a massive arts.
You can just have a good person, be good.
And that's good enough.
And I think a lot, I think a lot of writing fails now because I feel like we try to, I feel like we try to complicate everybody.
And I do think that's not.
I don't think it's bad to complicate people.
I don't think it's bad to give other characters depth in fiction when they need it.
Goku, he's my favorite.
Right, no, I, Goku's great specifically because.
Goku's great specifically because of that.
But like, I think that was my argument.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But I think, like, there is depth there, but it's not like it's nowhere nearest.
Like, when you compare him to Vegeta or Piccolo, it's not even, it's, it's insane.
The, the breath of distance between them.
I just think the way that, like, who is, who is, who is, who is, who.
was more of a parent to gohan gooku or pick like you know what i'm saying like in my if you like really
want to examine goku he's kind of his nature his nature is to care about fighting because he's a
saying that's ultimately like that is his nature that that's fair i think that's fair but his personality is
of kindness he's a kind person well what he loves to fight no but what he is he's a fucking he's a he's a man
he's a man child that is the way that he's written to where that kids on are usually like on average
they don't really know much about the world
they're usually just happy to be there and stuff
unless you know something got they got manipulated
but he's just like
he doesn't really he doesn't really
do things with Chi Chi he doesn't really
contribute things he just he's just selfish like a kid
but he's still nice he's not doing it on purpose
he's not like I'm an asshole and I don't care
about you or anything this he's just not I'm just going to do
my thing and I think that's great
but I just think that like
it's almost like when people try to interpret books
in a way that they're not supposed to be or I'm like
It's clear.
That's kind of the point, though.
Huh?
That's the point of fiction that was to interpret it.
I disagree.
I usually want to.
I usually like, hey, I'm more, I love interviews from the person that wrote it.
And I want to see what their perspective is unless they said, I left it perfectly vague so you can put your own shit on to it.
And a lot of times it's not that.
Usually they'd have an idea of in mind like, oh, I wrote it like this.
It's like, I wrote Rochack like this.
I wrote like, so and so like this.
And then people like put their own stink on it.
He's like, ah, you kind of miss the point.
Rochak would be a fucking conservative
and he'd have guns and it's like
No, he wouldn't.
He literally hates all that.
Listen, listen.
I would say I like that
I like that Goku is specifically written in that way
specifically because I do like that when he interacts with people,
he changes them.
I think that's a great,
that is a great character attribute
that I wish was in more places.
Like I wish,
I wish the Halo series tried that a little bit.
I think it fits with people
who are not truly villainous.
I don't think it works with every single person.
Like, I think that works on a character like arbiter.
I think when chief and arbiter in exactly each other,
and they realize that their values are very similar.
I think that works at everybody.
That shit would not work for Napa.
That shit would have not worked for sale.
No, right, right.
No, of course.
You know, obviously, it's not going to work on everybody,
but the fact that it's possible, I like, I like that.
I know.
I would say personally, I would say Future Trunks,
personally. If I'm not going for Goku,
I would say, I would say trunks.
And that specific version, when he pops
up with a sword and he's just like, oh, fuck.
He was too much like blade for me.
Kind of annoyed me. I loved it.
You don't like blade?
No, I do. Look, I like.
I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like,
no, I have a problem like that.
You don't like black Wesker?
Yeah, that's, yeah.
Dude, do do do do do do do do do do do do.
Don't get me started on that shit.
Dude, that's, don't give me.
We were screaming in my house and we saw that.
I was like, is that I fucking lost my mind.
And then.
And I was like, the entire series, I was like, man, this shit is so fucking lame.
And as soon as I saw that, I was like, oh, God, everybody, stop making fun of this.
We need another season.
I need some more Black Wesker.
And of course, you know, we didn't even be able to happen because he passed away too, unfortunately.
Well, he might have been able to shoot it before he died, I think.
Yeah, there was enough time.
Wooded Lans Riddick died.
It was a while ago.
Was it last year?

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're doing.
do? I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's

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.
It was middle last year.
Yeah, I think he might have been, it would have been impossible to be going to shot it again,
I wanted more of that shit, bro.
I wanted more of that shit.
But anyway, yeah, Goku's dope.
There's a lyric from a band, Kill Switch and Gage, where he says, like, through the humbled
eyes of a child, like, will realize true equality, meaning that there is, there's something
about the innocence of a child that really kind of disarms people.
And I just feel like that's kind of like what Goku does, where he's just, he's so,
like, just unapologetically just carefree and just wants the best and blah, blah, blah,
like that.
So I don't think there's anything deep about that at all.
And, but I love it.
That's, that's why I think he's, he's the goat.
And, uh, as far as, uh, bad guys, I love the Ganyu Force.
I fucking love the Ganyu Force and, uh, Zarbone.
Like, I, I loved that arc.
The Ganyu Force probably up there in like my favorite, uh, favorite arcs.
So, like, I would just go with Zarbone just because, I don't know.
I don't know if he was gay or something.
Like, he had a, yeah, there was coded.
Yeah.
He was coded.
There's something about it.
Like,
he's,
he's non-binary at least.
At least.
There's something.
There's,
there's,
there's,
there's,
there's, there's,
there's, there's,
there's, there's,
there's, there's,
yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe he's an allegory
for, uh,
body dysmorphia because he,
because he's,
because it's,
like, beautiful and then he becomes all fucking gross.
Yeah.
You may be,
actually, so much to look into that.
That, whatever.
There's more going on,
I will admit.
Obviously,
obviously for me,
my favorite is go on.
obviously. I think Gohan's awesome, great character.
He's a great villain, yeah.
You could argue this is a villainous nature to him because how he chooses not to fight sometimes.
He's like, nah, I'm just going to stay out of this.
Let everybody.
If I just fought, I'd solve every problem, but like, I don't want to do that.
I don't want to do any problem.
I think he's a really good character.
I think people, I think people are very hard on him for no reason.
And I think people forget that, like, he's clearly a very traumatized person.
You know, he's seen nothing more trauma in his life.
and he's half human,
so he's not like his sociopath alien dad.
People are like,
why does Goku do this?
Like,
was Goku's an alien.
Goku's not a human being.
Coco's a human-looking person,
but he's literally an alien.
Can you trick him?
So he can trick him into fighting.
Let me ask you something.
How do you feel about,
do you think him being half-saying,
do you think that should have affected his power level at all?
I mean,
I think,
is that like I can be wrong.
I know there's people like,
one of the folks that go into like long detail
about in the data book of this and this and that.
I'm like,
I think it's what happens is that Sands,
uh,
like humans,
they have their,
they have like fonts of energy.
What happens to say,
I feel like Sands,
they don't normally access their emotions the same way humans do.
So I think humans are able to access more of their power
through the ability to be able to regularly use their emotions better.
And I think that's why Gohan can be so much stronger than everybody else.
He has more.
potential than everybody else.
I think it's weird that only he has it and then trunks doesn't have it and then
Golton doesn't have, which I think they may, they've never explored it for them.
But it's very clear that the strongest character often is Gohan when he tries his hardest.
And when he's pushed to that point.
Oh yeah, when he goes all, like he loses his pupils and he kind of like just shifts.
But what happens is I feel like his nature is that like he doesn't like fighting because one, he's seen his dad die in front of him multiple times.
he's went to space and fought space Nazis at four before he started school he got left in the
wilderness and had to fight it survive for a year by himself you know I think all that shit really
traumatized it is crazy and he also saw his mom be alone with go ten and he's like I don't want to
do that to my wife and my daughter I don't want him not I'm willing I accept yeah it bothered me
for a while but like I think I think at a certain point like I kind of came to it's like okay I can
accept the idea that like at
his full potential he is strongest
but like generally like
as a baseline he's
he's not as strong you know what I mean
like he can exceed
yeah he can give in that dude I love
I love when they fucking when they lose their pupils man
this is my favorite when Virginia is screaming
on Namik about the dragon balls being gone
and he like fucking flies off he comes off the water
I'm seeing his hilarious
dude that I had that
and also dude shout out to the
English dub because like it's genuinely good.
Have you ever watched behind the screams, bro?
That shit is correct.
Dude, the guy that was doing Trunks' voice passed the fuck out.
He passed out in the booth.
I was like, holy shit, dude.
That's when you know you got to have like, you got to have proper,
because it's like me learning how to sing better.
I get to a point where I start getting extremely lightheaded and I'm like,
it's just let me know my limitations of me being a novice.
versus you see some of those opera motherfuckers
that are doing shit that you would make your head explode.
And you're like, dude, that is insane.
There's levels to this shit.
They really went all after that.
They got like such a perfect cast, I think.
And like, it's hard.
It's hard.
Like a lot of English jobs are really bad.
It's lazy.
They got kind of,
they kind of have a reputation for being fucking terrible.
But you know, I got to say something.
One second.
Sure.
because I think like say shout out to like I think fun fun omission does a fantastic job I think a lot of times and I've learned this through watching so many dubs in other languages I think where dubs also universally like worldwide get like the stink of why the Japanese is the original so superior because non-English dubs when it's in other languages there's like two or three people maximum sometimes it's one person doing everything and it's the worst thing you'll ever be
ever fucking hear. And I think they're more referring
to that than a lot of the English
dubs that we hear. Because for a lot
of the Latin American dubs, bro. It's like
genuinely four people.
It's like, dude, there's
Russian ones like and so because like a lot of
Jojo would watch a lot of Russian dubs.
And it was the worst shit I've ever heard.
It was and it was just like one person
so lazily doing it. And it's like, what the
fuck is this? It's not even
the people, the amount of actors.
that you hire, it's the quality of actors that you hire.
Because I don't, I don't know if, I don't know if voice acting is as important elsewhere
than it is here because even just like, and that's speaking from place of ignorance, but it's,
it feels that way based on that specifically.
Because it's like, oh, it's like two people in this English, in this like other, like language
dub and you can tell.
Yeah.
I don't even speak this language and I can tell that that's the same fucking guy.
Right.
But like, Goku doing King Kai's voice, I would have not assumed.
I would have not assumed that at all
that Sean Schemel was doing both of those.
Right, that's a good point.
Or, you know,
Christopher Sabat's a little bit more obvious
in certain places,
like Piccolo and Vegeta are a little bit closer,
but even those feel like distinct.
Yeah.
And like,
they did in Z.
Maybe in Kai,
they're a little bit closer.
But it's,
yeah,
I don't know,
man,
it's,
it's strange.
It's,
it's,
they did a really fucking bang up job
with that English dub
to the point where like,
because Dragon Ball
was like the only anime
that I had any real
sense of experience with,
I didn't understand
what people had a problem
with the English dubs.
I just didn't understand.
I was like, this is fucking great.
What's the problem?
And then I watched Naruto and I was like, oh.
I hate how every teenage anime character, the main character is voiced by a woman, bro.
That shit bothered me.
It started really annoying me when I found out everyone was voiced by a woman.
I'm like, oh, my God, dude.
Well, that's true in the English, or not the Japanese dub of Dragon Ball.
Or not the Japanese dub, but just the original.
You know, the original Dragon Ball where, like, adult Goku is played by a woman.
That is one specific reason why I could not.
could not there are somewhere like the voices are so annoying to me that I'm like I'll just wait for
the dub I'll just wait for the dub like I can't I can't do I and also I'm somebody who has
because I also feel like in the anime community a lot of people think that overacting chewing the
scenery as they call it or whatever is means good and in a lot of uh animas because there's so many
animates playing in my house because my my roommates are obsessed and they have this giant
fucking you know thing in the living room.
and a lot of it
I was like this sounds
fucking it's
it's so doesn't match what's happening
but it's just it feels so powerful
and I feel like people are like this is clearly better
and I think well that's the culture
that's fair but over here
if we did that it would be like
what the fuck are they doing and it's something
that I've noticed and I picked up on quite a bit
or saying
you know how there's just certain tropes
and it actually kind of I don't know if you guys saw
Godzilla minus one
where it kind of
the acting
kind of seeped
and the vibe of anime
seeped into that movie
and I actually thought it was kind of interesting
because of
it's straight of Japanese proper
that's what it's but what I mean is
there's Japanese just regular fucking cinema
and then there's anime right
there's there's a difference between like the of how
because like say people in real life don't
people don't yell and scream
in regular movies like in a way that you do
in anime
There's just a, there's a completely different vibe.
But in some of the dialogue,
I feel like,
I feel like Japanese dialogue is common throughout anime and Japanese media that I've seen at least.
Because that's just their diet.
Like,
that's why they write it and perform it the way they do.
I,
I,
I,
the reason why I don't agree with that is because of,
like,
I've watched.
What I've seen.
Like,
I don't watch very much Japanese media.
I don't observe much Japanese media isn't anime or movies.
But I've watched, like,
from what I see it's it's not it's just not that like it's just it's it's not like look at it's there's when
there is a you know like say there's it no one's powering up and like say I'm trying to think of like
a recent anime or something like I've watched common writer before like I used to watch Commeriter for
years and they that's live action they would act like anime characters for the most part and I don't
know if that's the point of common writer like I think that's why they do it's come right I would
I don't know because...
I feel like that's natural to the fact that they make their media like that.
I think you're a little biased in that because it's just there is...
Like, say for example, imagine, imagine making a war film.
And that's kind of exactly what minus one is.
That's why it was actually kind of interesting where all of a sudden the people,
the soldiers are fucking screaming in this anime style of dialect where nobody would, you know,
like this, it's just going over the top, yelling longer, doing things.
Like, it's just, it's way more colorful in the language.
And so it doesn't really translate to that in the real world, especially if you're talking to Japanese people, they don't obviously talk like that, right?
So in a real setting, when you're trying to make a grounded movie, you obviously wouldn't do that.
But I thought it was interesting in some scenes in minus one.
Love the movie.
I fucking love that movie.
But in some of the scenes, I was kind of laughing because I was like, all right, you guys kind of calm down a little bit.
Did you guys see Shin Godzilla?
Did you see Shin Godzilla?
I didn't see that.
I didn't see it.
Because I saw Shin and Shin felt like an anime, too.
And I was like.
It might be
Godzilla generally
Granted as well
Godzilla is crazy
But I was expecting
Crazy
It's insane
But minus one had a very
Yeah I know what you mean
But like it's it's not like they're making
You know
Shiddler's list
But Japanese or something
You know
Dude
They're making a giant fucking
Monster is parading through the streets
It's going to be a little bit more fucking crazy
But like I haven't seen
Minas 1 yet
Dude, that shit is so sad.
Dude, the idea of Godzilla is such a sad situation.
Because, like, imagine after the nuke and all that shit, then that, like, then that happens.
That's so fucked.
That is so fucked up.
Yeah, they got bad luck, man.
They got bomb the shit.
We lost part of our culture.
We got pacified.
We lost our army.
What can go wrong?
And then a gecko comes out the water, the size of fucking eight buildings.
And it just destroys the thing.
If I ever, if I ever have a kid, I think,
My goal is to convince it that Godzilla happened.
Why?
I like that a lot.
You know what kind of terror?
Because that's,
I like that a lot.
If you think of Godzilla being real,
nothing we use works on him.
So you're just going to give your kid this one being of absolute terror.
No.
It's over there.
But if it comes over here,
we're done.
No,
I'll just tell him like,
yeah,
we got it.

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 a billboard of years recently that said $20 billion.
$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.
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 Lawfirm,
thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit forethepeople.com for an office near you.
We got it, but like he's,
You know, I can't wait.
I can't wait to see the mess of children you're going to have, bro.
I cannot wait to be like, damn, bro.
Your kids are, your kids are shaking outside.
Outside looking around just shaking afraid of everything.
I want them to be afraid of the world around them.
I'm like, oh, dude.
That kid's not going to live long, man.
Look at him.
He's scared.
Respect.
What about villains, Kingston?
What about villains?
My favorite villain is Sel Jr., obviously.
Cell, my favorite villain is Sel Jr.,
the self is a huge piece of shit.
Sell is a.
I like that snake bug cell when he was all like,
like put that penis tail in you and suck you up.
I think Dragon Ballar Bridge did a good job on a lot of stuff,
but they excelled at the first form cell.
First form cell with him was because he was just sexual.
He was drinking people.
He would be doing when he put his thing and think of his arm.
He was like, wow, that was a tight fit.
And I was like, this guy is so disgusting.
disgusting.
He was so fucking funny.
They made him a little bit more villainous in some way.
And then freaking,
because he was sexual.
That's why I was like,
oh,
stop,
dude.
There's like,
there's an extra layer of sin,
like,
because as,
as first form's cell,
he just kind of feels like a,
like a monster.
He's a creep.
But like,
but like,
in abridged,
he feels like a,
a predator.
Like,
he feels sinister.
Like,
there's a sinister aspect to it.
Like,
a bear chasing.
you in the woods isn't sinister.
You know what I mean?
Like it's just a, that's just a beast
doing what it does.
But like,
sell drinking you and saying
that's tight is fucking crazy.
Imagine if Smokey the bear
is saying some really fucked up stuff
to you as he chases you.
Like,
he's closing you slurs.
He's calling you slurs
and he's chasing you
because I can smell the chicken on your blackie.
You can't get away from me.
I know exactly where you are.
And he's so fast.
He's so fucking fast.
He's running on two legs
twice as fast as a
bear can run on four lanes.
I know you guys exist outside of this.
I know you guys exist outside of this sphere of the internet in a lot of ways, but
do you guys have, do you guys know who Linkara is?
Of course I know who Linkara is.
I don't know.
Of course I know who.
Oh, yeah.
Well, but Derek, do you know who?
The name is so familiar, but I can't.
Yeah.
Okay.
So, Linkara is this.
He was like a nostalgia.
He was like one of these people who was on like the nostalgia critic website.
It was like a channel awesome guy.
he did like, I think,
movie reviews of like old movies or something.
I don't remember exactly what his shit is,
but he's kind of like,
he's one of those people.
He makes,
you know,
content that's a little cringe-worthy.
And every time,
every time I imagine someone running fast,
I think of this video.
And you can,
I put it in the chat right now.
Everybody,
everybody listening who knows what this is
is going to know exactly what I'm talking about.
Oh,
I know this video.
I totally know this video.
Okay.
That's crazy.
I love it.
this video, that's Smokey the bear
coming at you.
That is so
inconceivably fast, dude.
This is tough.
The footage that is behind him
in the green screen that is meant
to sell the illusion of him running fast
is scary fast.
They are just accelerating at you
and you have no clue what to do.
That is like 80 miles.
That's like 90 to 100 miles an hour.
Like there's nothing you can do.
Unlike he's just picking up dust behind him.
You just see a dust storm coming back to.
You're like, no, no.
But what's upsetting is, what's upsetting about it is that he's running,
he's running at that speed, but how he's running doesn't make sense.
Right, because he's not running like, like, like, if you've seen, what was it,
Kung Fu Hustle.
I don't know if you guys saw that way.
Yes.
Where they're actually like, their arms are like, like, like, they're actually like moving so in the,
it's just like.
You know, like Looney Tunes type shit.
The Sonic Blur.
That would be so fucking absurd, man.
I love that movie.
Do you think, oh, okay, here, here's here.
We're going to go ahead of question real quick.
I think it's really fun.
Turn your notifications off, by the way, you son of a bitch.
It's like the third one.
I'll kill you.
Sorry, I know.
I know.
My sideholds giving birth.
Oh, your.
Apologies.
Okay.
Congrats.
I'm sorry?
Have fun.
But what's called?
So there was this thing, right, where there were like three.
So there's these groups on YouTube.
These are these streamer groups.
There's one called RDC.
They're like those black guys that make the anime content, right?
And they were like, the seven of them.
And they were like, can RDC beat a jaguar in the fight?
I did not know that jaguars can kill alligators in the water.
that is something that really humbled my understanding of the animal kingdom to and see.
Because apparently jaguars are the most deadly big cat.
Like they're big cats that are bigger and stronger than it.
Yeah, they're extremely strong.
Yeah, yeah.
But jaguars are the most dangerous.
They're like they can swim, right?
They can swim, right?
They can swim like really well.
They're fast and they're really strong.
They're like the, they're like the, they're like the, they're like the reu and all the stats of like big cats.
where like other cats do things better
but nothing does everything as well as it does.
Seeing a
jaguar pull a crocodile out the water
made me so depressed
that I was just like
it just invaded
it just European his home.
It is when it's home was like
oh, dope, it seems like a nice place.
Let me have you and took him out the water
and went off with him.
Do you feel bad for the alligator?
Do you think, do you think there's
any way that the three of us could kill a jaguar.
No.
I think if we work together, I think we could.
I think it's possible.
Do we have tools?
Tools, but no guns.
So what kind of tools?
Like a steady,
like a spire?
Blunt tools.
Okay.
Yeah, I think we could.
I think we could figure.
One of us will die probably.
I think I think some are going to have to sacrifice someone.
If I can have like a spy hander, I would, I would feel.
comfortable being able to offend myself because it might pounce and just slice itself in half.
So that is the only chance I have.
Other than that, even if it's like a shorter sword.
Do you think you can't a viander correctly enough?
Absolutely.
So you think it's going to, you just do the hold out and just kind of stay there like that.
I actually, I had a guy, one of my, one of my followers, he's a, he's a bladetsmith and he made
me as viander.
He said, hey, I want to make you, I want to make you a sword.
You have one?
And I'm, yeah.
Now, I haven't seen in that minute, so I haven't oiled it up in a while.
So I'm kind of sad when I go to storage.
It's probably going to be rusty.
But, yeah, I olded it up the last time.
But anyway, he just, yeah, he just fucking made it.
And I just paid for the shipping.
I was just like, bro, like, can I pay?
He was like, just pay for fucking shipping.
I was like, okay.
That's crazy.
And it's heavy for a for a sword, obviously, but it's not unreasonably heavy.
It's not unreasonably heavy.
It's not like, oh, I can't fucking handle it.
is. The way people describe, like the way
I play D&D and the way people,
like the way they weight the weapons
in D&D is so fucking crazy.
It's horseshit. A katana is not five pounds.
That is not a five pound weapon at all.
It's like two to three.
Exactly. The people that would use them
would be so, like, think of how big a Japanese person
is. If they were swinging
around a five pound blade the way they do,
in real life, their arms would be yoped.
It's like two, it's like two and a half to three pounds for a sword.
For a long sword, like a regular long sword, it's like a little over three pounds, less than four pounds.
The, um, the modern metals we have too.
Whenever I see that in a lot of RPGs, they always get that wrong.
You get weighted down so quickly.
And I'm thinking this, do you understand that just a handful of swings cleaving into something,
you would already be, you'd be useless.
Your arms would be noodles.
You would literally throw your arm out.
You would swing the sword and you would dislocate your own arm.
You'd be like, wow, that's crazy.
And you'd go about your day.
It's fucking absurd.
It's like, when you swing this Vihander in Dark Souls, the representation of it, I'm like,
how heavy is this fucking blade?
Because it crashes to the ground, like, ka!
It's ka!
Like, shah!
Like, you know, like, or that fucking in Dark Souls, too,
that fucking final fantasy, that ultra
heavy sword. Oh my god, yeah.
It's just like the
big old blunt sword. The one looks like
gutcha sword. Just that's stupid. Yeah, it's
so stupid. You can
kill the shit of anything with it though. So I think
like if I had a big warhammer
I think I could get
lucky enough to get one good
don't know if that would kill it. I don't know if I
would disable it and instead it into a
fury and it would go berserk and that makes
things worse. I don't trust. I don't trust
blunt weapons enough in a scenario like that.
I would trust a small dagger over a
over like a big fucking hammer.
You know, I think hammers are so funny because the
the idea of hitting something, hitting a bong on an animal
and killing it is crazy.
Yeah, but it's not as reliable as like a blade that you know
will cut at least.
You know what I mean?
Like at the very least, hopefully I can like maybe cut all,
like cut a big slit in this thing and maybe crawl inside it
where it can't get me.
You know, like like a, like a, like a,
fucking parasite.
You cut it and you're just,
it's like trying to get you out
too when you were just already inside of it.
I think I think I am, I think I am
small, nimble
nimble and fast enough to
potentially, potentially maybe.
You cannot invade the animal
before I could.
How big is a jaguar?
Chris, that is, Chris,
that is preposterous.
I'm sorry.
If we're all fighting, if we're all fighting, I thought
we were, I'm sorry, I didn't realize you had abandoned me.
I thought we were all fighting this thing together.
Well, he's already dead.
He's already dead because he's already dead because
Does he try to swing a fucking mace at it or whatever the fuck?
No, not a mace.
A war hammer.
You swung a war hammer.
You're not.
And then it backed up and then it clawed your face off.
No,
I'd wait until it goes in the air or something like that.
And then I would just go down.
And you might crack its rib.
I would swing down with all my,
because the hammer's so blunt that it's like the kind of blunt where it's like splat.
Yeah,
but Kingston, it's so heavy.
It's so heavy and slow.
You're being chased by a,
you need a,
You need a you need a Dex build for something like this.
You can't go in with a fucking hammer.
Dude,
the force of that thing pouncing on you.
I just don't think like I'm,
I'm banking on the force.
It would knock down my chest.
I'm banking on the velocity,
the velocity of its pounce will help me cut it,
you know,
with this giant,
it will cover a lot of ground.
That's where I'm hoping on.
But in real,
let's be real.
I think we would all easily lose.
Yeah.
I think we would easily lose.
You guys would lose.
Because I think first and foremost,
none of us are,
None of us are capable, like, I don't think any of us have been hurt to the point where we would get slashed and we wouldn't immediately go into shock.
Because that's the big thing, right?
You got to be able to take a hit.
It's true.
Yeah.
I've never been hurt really bad, but not in a long time.
So, like, I won't get slashed and be like, I'm can keep fighting.
I'm not a warrior.
I'll get slashed.
And I'll be like, ah, and I'll fall down and start crying.
Yeah, something that, like, completely opens you up that would be kind of, you.
You know, like, I had my fingernail ripped off in a fight.
I didn't feel it at all.
But, like, it's different if claws, like, take off a chunk of your meat.
Like, I'm pretty sure.
I'm like, I'm fine.
I'll wipe it up later.
No, we're going to get hit.
And we're going to start bleeding and get dizzy.
Yeah, and I'd probably just run.
I would, I would for sure just run.
Yeah, I'd run away.
Trip Kingston and then just live.
You guys are fun.
You wouldn't have to, well, let's be, you wouldn't have to, you wouldn't have to, you
wouldn't have to trip Kingston.
Kingston's getting, the, the Jaguar is catching.
Yeah, I'm not athletic anymore.
I'm not athletic anymore.
If I was...
If I was in good shapes, though, you guys would be in trouble.
Because I'd probably about as fast as in your size and my size.
But when I was younger, when I was like, now I'm like, yo, just run.
This run, guys.
Hopefully it'll take long enough to kill me.
When's the last time you've sprinted?
Because I was thinking about that the other day.
Because I've done, like, a five point something on a treadmill, but that's still not, like, my maximum sprinting speed.
Sprinted?
Oh, my God.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Like last week, I think, actually?
Maybe like...
No, he didn't.
Yeah.
Maybe like pre-COVID.
Like, I mean like sprinting, like where you're pretty much reaching your maximum speed.
Yeah, max speed, yeah.
Why?
Pre-COVID.
I don't know.
Well, I go on walks a lot and then like sometimes I'll walk around at night and then I'll just kind of want to, I'll reach a point where I was like, I just want to get home.
And so I'll sprint.
Instead of just jogging like a normal person, you'll start sprinting like a maniac at the middle of the night.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
That's privilege right there.
Me or Derek did that in the middle of the night, though.
We would get a straight bullet from somewhere.
We would get a stray bullet from somewhere.
Why?
Just some fucking piece of a shit peering out of their window just happens to have their gun right next to them.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't know.
I got scared.
I referred to my life.
They would not.
You assume that they would be able to hit me, which is crazy.
They would not.
Okay, Sonic.
If you were able to dodge bullets, it's crazy.
I am.
Listen, listen, listen, and I think some friends of ours can attest to this.
Okay.
I am unreasonably fast for somebody who exercises very little.

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 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. 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 for the people.com for an office near you.
And can, like, I, I can't.
Yeah.
Really?
Really?
Yeah.
I don't know how fast Jalen is, but I remember we, we race when we, do you
remember this?
We literally did this.
I don't remember you guys racing, but I don't, because Jalen is,
Jalen is the fastest person.
Well, no, he's alive.
One person that's fast in him.
One of the person that's faster than him.
but Jalen is one of the facts
we've ever met in my life.
Like,
he's just a little slower
than Hussein Bolt.
I know at one point,
a little slower.
That's insane.
Because a little slow
and Usain Bolt could be way,
like way slower,
technically or not at all.
It's still so fucking ungodly fucking fast.
Usain Boat was so fast
that people wouldn't make,
it wouldn't make sense to speed of running
because when you take,
it's supposed to be at your fast,
but he would get faster during the run.
And that's like, that's not how running works,
you're doing it wrong.
And then he broke his leg because he was too fast, literally.
He ran so fast,
he broke himself.
I'm more than sure if I try to sprint at my maximum speed right now,
I would easily pull.
I would pull my groin.
I would pull my groin easily.
Like,
because even at like, say,
because I was on the treadmill running 5.6 or something
that whatever,
just putting it all the way up.
Yeah.
And I'm going, but I'm not, it's not, I don't want to try to max it out.
That's dangerous, right?
Not as a gym.
You don't want to get hurt at the gym.
Well, dude.
I was getting a cramp in my hamstring already.
I was like, fuck.
We had, we had to do sprints for training, for training for the boxing.
There were periods of times where we'd have to sprint.
And I remember, I remember my coaches telling me it's like, oh, you're pretty fast.
That's weird.
That's weird.
Yeah, because they just didn't expect, because I told them it was like, yeah, I don't.
do much of anything.
And they're like, and then they were like, why, why, what, what, what, my main coach didn't
understand really, which was like pretty cool.
I'm, I'm not like faster than like, like, Hussein Boulder or anything.
It's insane.
He runs like, what, like 20 fucking five miles an hour or something?
Probably, probably not faster than that.
Like, nearly 30.
Like nearly 30.
Yeah.
So upsetting.
That is upsetting.
It is so, like, stupid.
But, yeah, I remember.
Because, dude, it'd be other fast people next to him.
That's what.
makes it even more insane
and he's just out running
them and I'm like what in God's
name is wrong? Oh my God's
his life is so fast. His top speed is 27.33
miles an hour.
Insane. That's fucked up.
Was that the record for the fastest person
of all time? It is right? I don't know. I don't know.
I think somebody beat his record. I think
someone beat his record eventually.
Yeah, probably just some random fucking African, just some guy
that's looks like, I was probably Jamaican.
Oh, I can get money? I can get money. I can bring
a little bit of money back to my village and he just fucking
smoked his record. He just didn't even like, oh, well, I wasn't even trying.
The thing that's freaks, the thing that's scary, the thing that's scary about sprinting
and being, is stopping, really. Like, stopping is kind of, that's, you got to, that's a scary.
You got to pedal it down, bro. You can't just stop. You have to, don't just, don't do. No, you have to,
you have to, you have to, you have to pedal it down, but by nature of, like, slowing down, you're,
you're destabilizing yourself. Yeah. So it's like, it's fucking, it's, what? I'm, I've definitely
you reach your top speed.
the way you...
Just try to stop.
Try to plant your feet.
That would be so...
Stand up.
Dude, I think you're having to explode.
If it's, like, if it was a concrete, you just fucking...
I think you'd really not be in a good stance.
I think we're laughing at it and we'd see that.
We'd be like, yo, that's so unfortunate the condition that guy is in right now.
Yeah.
It's like, it's my one physical actual.
that I have that is like a good stat advantage.
The only one.
I used to be fast until, and I still don't know what's wrong with me to this day because
I, it's so hard to deal with doctors and like people where I, I thought something
was wrong with my back specifically.
So whenever I would try to get things, this was in, when I was 16, I was doing spring
training for football.
And I thought somebody hit me and nobody was around me.
I just something tweaked.
For the longest time, I thought it was my back.
So then they would do x-rays on my lower.
spine. You're fine, pussy.
And then I got to the point where I realized
that it's actually, what do you call it?
The hip or something on the left.
One of your flexors? Something's wrong there.
And it's still, as we sit here, I'm always in pain.
Like, every second of the day.
But I just live with it, right? It's just I'm like, whatever.
You're like Jaylon with his, you're like Jaylon with his knees.
His knees are always right. I do think Jaylon would be faster than me if his knees didn't
hurt. He has lines. He has lines, that's why.
Oh, God. Right. Right. That I think is what hinders.
him. Okay, that makes sense. Is that he's in physical distress whenever he's moving. So you just
live with it. You just live with the pain, right? You just, you just, you just, I was, I was much
fast some of my size. Like, I'm probably still way fast in some of my sizes. Like, someone is my
size. Oh, yeah, for someone. As fast as I am. But when I was dinner, I was way faster and I,
I was a fast pretty quick dude. Like, I was about as fast as Joe. Like, I think Joe was faster
to me still because he's small, but I was still able to, like, can't keep up with them.
When we played football, there's a strange.
No one will be able to, like, I could get people.
Yeah.
There's a strange advantage in being small.
I don't even understand how that works, really, because, like, logically, like, I would
think that, like, the larger your stride is, the, the, the faster that you would be.
Like, that just seems to make sense.
But, like, I've kind of found that it's not.
I've seen it be the opposite several times.
I think it's more about the, the, the strength in your legs versus the mass.
Like, say, if you have.
less mass to move, but you have like pretty strong
legs, and you probably do
just, you know, just by, I don't
fucking whatever, that you can just
move pretty goddamn fast.
It is interesting
seeing giant people, your
size that are in the NFL, Kingston,
that are ungodly fast.
And I'm like, why can you move like that?
It's actually frightening.
It's frightening seeing
something that big move so quickly
because you're like, how?
You think, well, I know how. They're all
drugs. They're all on performance and enhancing drugs.
Like they're literally, they're like, they're literally injecting steroids into their lower
back where it hurts and then it does the muscles heal there.
It's like, fine, look jackpot.
Great now. And then they just run where everything would have broken, everything would have
fucking popped and everything would have been fucked up and they do that every week and
they're fine for the most part. It's fucking bullshit. It's like they try to act like the
sports aren't clean, but you have to not be clean to be able to handle that shit.
A little fucking basketball player
Somehow they have knees
And they play 82 games a season
Somehow their knees aren't grinding into dust
And they're like, oh yeah, I'm fucking
Like, okay
Yeah, like you're not like a LeBron James is almost 40
And he's just like, oh, we're gonna believe
That this guy's not on every fucking drug
That gives them an advantage to stay healthy
That shit is crazy, bro
The ones that are legal
The ones that are not legal or insane
We're just like, bro, you're just using shit
Like just
Just fucking make it all
like just regulate it
just make it legal so then it can just be
and then people can regulate and they don't have to hide
this shit. Some asshole gets suspended
for like fucking eight games for getting caught
and then he's right back to cheating again
after him like what is the point of this?
He just loses some money
like it's fucking crazy. The way that shit happens
is insane like all you're going to do is just
simply like
and give me the drugs and make them cheaper
god damn it I would love it bro I would love
I would love there was better surgeries for people's
like bodies that'd be so perfect people
Oh, yeah, I'm just going to get the surgery and be fine now.
Dude, we're going to be fixed like when we're older, though.
That's what I know I've mentioned this before.
Like I always say, just like when people talk about AI, they say it's never going to be this bad ever again,
meaning that it's only going to keep getting better, right?
It's only going to improve.
And the same way, I think old people of today are not going to exist when we're old.
I just think it's just not going to be a thing anymore.
Other than the people who reject, like, science in general and they don't want to be touched by anything,
there's going to be those people.
Like, I remember in Mass Effect, there was that whole thing where there was,
there was that one green ending that you could do in three.
There was like almost the secret one.
There was like blue red.
There was blue red.
And what was it?
Blue red.
And then I think there was you could just kill your.
I don't remember.
Anyway, there was a secret one where you would,
everybody would kind of just become transhumanists where they would just accept the technology of the AI,
the reapers.
And they would all become higher and better beings.
But then there was a whole subsect of humans that are like,
oh, you guys are freaks.
it's almost like what's happening
out with the what were they calling themselves
pure bloods oh
I didn't get the fizer I'm a pure blood
I'm like you're
this is mass effect
I was like it's happening
I wouldn't do it I wouldn't
I wouldn't become a transhuman
you wouldn't become like better
just but like
you're not you're this
you're you but just better
dude I can't wait to die man
it's almost like it okay
well fair I can't wait to die bro
like I'm like I'm
I've been trying to come to turn to that shit for a while,
and I'm, like, really getting in there.
And I don't want to be here much longer, man.
What's your beef with suicide, though?
What's your beef with that?
Oh, like, I'm not trying to kill myself,
but I'm trying to die eventually, you know?
Like, I'm trying to, like, you know, I'm going to do my time.
I'm going to do my time.
I'm going to do my laps.
And I'm like, all right, that's it.
And I'm out.
I love that.
That is a great quote.
I'm not trying to kill myself,
but I am trying to die, though.
That's a pretty good.
That's a pretty good quote.
Like, I'm too pussy to kill myself,
but I'm really trying to die if you try to help me out.
Yeah. I'm definitely scared to do it to myself though.
I'm really scared.
I've definitely been at points in my life where I'm like, I guess I'll skydive because like,
whatever.
Yeah, like if something goes wrong, like whatever, man.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's actually good.
That's a good one.
I'm not going to throw my life away because I've made fun of people doing that too often
and I don't want to be a hypocrite in that sense.
Like I don't want you guys to be like, yo, can you sit talking about these motherfuckers
getting hit by trains and falling off buildings?
this motherfucker
did when and fucking
trying to
hug a bear
and fucking
you somehow
fall.
Yeah,
but he's an idiot
because he thinks
he thinks that's a
safe thing to do.
Like that's what's
stupid about it.
He's like,
yeah,
oh,
I'm going to be fine
after this.
It's the hubris of it
that's stupid.
If you're going into,
if you're skydiving
and you're like,
yeah,
honestly,
eh,
if I die,
I die,
I don't really,
not really,
not really thrilled
with anything
at the moment.
I was watching.
I saw Arnold Schwarzenegger
movie,
where he was like in the he was fell out of a building and he was parachute wouldn't open and he hit a car and he was fine and i really thought for a while that if you hit a car and you jumped out of a plane you wouldn't die i mean i you would blow the fuck up still listen listen hold on hold on hold on success starts with your drive an american public university is here to fuel it with affordable tuition and over 200 flexible online programs

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 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 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.

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.
This is not 100% untrue.
Cars do break people's falls
in a way that helps them survive
from like falls that you would believe
would absolutely murder.
If you're skydiving,
when you hit the ground,
when you hit the ground,
it's game over.
Dude,
I saw,
I saw this video of some lady
jumping off like a fucking genuinely
like an eight story building
and landing on a car
and then apparently she like survived
because the car broke her.
Yeah,
it's the same.
They crumple.
They crumple.
So like they impact on it.
And it's not normally enough to save you.
But sometimes it does.
The idea of somebody falling off a skyscraper
and when you go to car and be.
like, well.
You imagine that's your car, though.
That would piss me the fuck.
That would be so,
that's a Seinfeld episode
where somebody jumps off the roof of the hospital
and lands on George's car.
And he tries to get,
and he tries to get them to pay for it.
Or you know what's even funnier?
You know what's even funnier?
In superhero movies,
where they're fighting in like a super,
the superhero picks up your car
and throws at the villain and he misses.
You're like, you'd even hit him with it.
Yeah, you just completely wasted.
No fucking reason, dude.
I don't even know where it's at.
I don't even know where it's at Thor.
You threw my car.
I don't know into the ocean maybe.
I can't get insurance for that.
There's no Thor insurance.
Would there be though?
It depends on your level of insurance.
It depends on your ability.
It probably doesn't work.
In New York there probably is.
In New York City in the Marvel universe,
there must be Avengers insurance.
Yeah.
And you're stupid if you don't get it.
It's probably that.
You got to pay extra, sure, and you're at 80 if you don't have it because it's so obviously it can happen.
You remember 2008 Incredible Hulk?
He uses a car as boxing gloves, essentially.
He has like, he has gotlets.
He's a cop car.
He used a cop car as a cop car.
Oh, so that already, so it's just already out of the city's pocket, fucking Hulk.
Dude, you can do that in the game too.
Fuck you, Hulk.
That was so fucking cool.
Hulk's, what was it, Hulk's Ultimate Destruction?
I love that game.
could like pick up a car and like break it in half and wear of his gloves.
It's like, this is sick.
This is awesome.
I thought it was cool, but I was like, aren't Hulk's hands stronger than any car possible?
So why is he really looks cool?
It's silly.
It's silly.
It's just it's just player expression.
It's all.
It's just like I feel like doing this.
And so let me do it.
If my Hulk wants to wear, you know, car gloves, he's going to wear car gloves.
I'm like, that's so cool.
What a weird idea to just develop.
and push into the game
and make sure
it reaches deadline, you know?
It was the same thing
when Maj and Vegeta
it's one of my favorite scenes
where when Goku,
like,
because he's strapped,
you know,
like he's strapped on the rock
and whatever fucking
Vegeta is just talking shit
or whatever he's saying.
And then Goku,
he fucking breaks out of it
and he has the rock,
the stone on his arms
and he fucking punches Vichita
with both of them.
And it's such a cool scene,
but also that rock is like
cookies to them where it's like it's like just punching
Vegeta in the face would be way more effective but it looks cool as shit
I'm gonna see if I can find that scene so I love that scene because I don't even
remember what Vich could I think that's when Vigida just starts talking all this
good shit about this is what I did and now I'm stronger than you and he's like and
actually you're not stronger to me he turns into Super Sain 3 and then Vigita's all crying
essentially I gotta drown I would just I would just drown people if I was just
fight somebody in the CBC worse I would just get to my head and start drowning him
what are you doing?
I'm like,
I'm gonna drown this guy
and I'm just gonna hold him
underwater long enough
until he dies.
But I want to work on
like Freeza and Suggles
because they don't have to breathe.
Of course they don't have to breathe.
They don't have,
Freezer doesn't have to breathe.
Of course they don't have to breathe.
Of course.
Why would he have to breathe?
How fucking,
what is evil?
Now, have you guys seen?
No, I know we're talking about
Akira Yama and we're,
or not right now,
but like we were.
because there's some people obviously
who are
there's always going to be somebody with some kind of problem
no matter how beloved the person is
well it's it's Mr. Popo
everybody's like oh well he made this fucking racist character
so like how could you possibly
revere this man?
Can't be goaded without that
yeah
you can't do great things without having one racist
character under your mind
I never
I don't know man
that thing's that that's so fucking silly to me
look man
it's it's distasteful
but as a kid
you absolutely I
I didn't know what that shit was
I wasn't I wasn't into
I was not that learned at that point
to know the history of blackface
and stuff like that so
and by the time I don't think
I don't think people in Japan are either
which is why I don't think it's
I think it's based on blackface at all.
I think it's based on probably some fucking Hindu god or something.
It's totally possible.
I mean,
but in the same way to say Mexico,
my friend,
he had some Mexican comics and there is a,
like,
a comic book that is based off of blackface.
And to them,
it's just a thing.
It's not even like,
oh,
I think I might have showed you guys a long time ago.
Yeah,
I think you texted it to us,
I think at some point.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What was it?
Do you remember what it was called?
No.
But I sent it to my cousins.
They were like, oh, yeah, I heard of this.
And I was like, God.
Oh, yeah, I heard of this.
It's all casually.
Oh, yeah, I heard of that.

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.
All right.
Let me see.
I'm trying to get to that part where what?
Oh, he's, wow, it's a whole.
So I'm looking at the scene right now.
Memon penguin?
I think it is.
Is that it?
Memean penguin.
That sounds right.
That sounds right.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, this is bad.
This is actually fucking.
And to them, they're just like, oh, whatever.
It's funny.
This is what people think Mr. Popo is,
which is, you know,
A little concerning.
All right, here we go.
I'm going to send you guys this is so fucking absurd.
I love this so much.
I'm just going to send you that just, if you guys don't remember that exact scene,
or just how the rocks are bigger than I even remember.
You just got to go to 2047.
I'm going to send you this clink right now.
Just this is a refrigerator.
Like, I remember the rocks being actually like more just on his fist, but it's actually
they're almost like wings.
It's so much bigger than I actually.
actually remember is go 2047 27 yeah and then he then he just punches the shit out of
it's so fucking silly I thought that was so cool though but yeah that's that's that's that's
Hulk with the cars oh yeah they are so big yeah and makes it embarrassing what makes it
insane is that you know Vegeta's Chris's height you know that right yeah yeah
the way the way sands are built like all even
the kid ones.
They have so much mass on
them. Like, Goku's
like 5-8. Like, he's about your height, Derek.
Goku's your height.
You think so? He's 5-8.
I thought Goku was tall. Really?
5'8, dude.
That is not seen right at all.
Vegeta, I mean, I think Goku's 5-7.
I think Gohan's 5-8.
Goku seems tall to me.
Goku is 5-9.
Oh, wow. According to Google.
I don't think that's what it says on a Twitter.
Shit, I would put him like 5-11.
He was only 5-9, huh?
Interesting.
He's always looked so much taller than me.
Who?
Vigida's 5-5.
He's 5-5?
Huh.
Goku's only 5-9?
Well, that, huh.
Goku's not a big guy.
I mean, all right, fair enough.
For some reason, I've always thought him to be closer to six-foot.
It's also how, like, nightmare from sole caliber.
It's like nightmare from sole caliber.
Number from sole caliber is 125 pounds.
And I'm like, no, he's.
not. No, he's not even slightly.
Like, without all the
shit on him, I guess? Dude, there's no way. There's no
way nightmare is a hundred twenty-five pounds. I don't know.
They're measuring wrong. That's all they're doing.
I think the sword itself, that sole caliber
sword is just 120 pounds, 25 pounds on its own.
People are just like, I hear that. I'm like, that's not true.
Like, I understand what's that called Soul Edge or something?
Yeah.
Is that a sword called Soul Edge?
Yeah.
I wonder if anybody has a hundred and pounds.
Like, no, he's not.
That's a, this motherfucker is at least 200 pounds, at least.
Where did you say that?
That doesn't, that doesn't even sound like, why would somebody say that?
That just sounds like someone's trolling.
Yeah, so right here it says Goku and Gohan are the same height.
I know that's definitely not true.
Gohan, on it's taller than Goku.
Is he?
I, I guess I never really focused.
As an adult, as an adult.
as an adult he is.
As an adult,
they looked about the same to me,
I never really noticed.
Yeah, but to be fair,
the heights in Dragon Ball
are really inconsistent.
Vegeta used to be like 5-5,
but there's some shots
where he's clearly the same height as Goku,
and it's like,
he used to be very slim, too.
He used to be very slim.
He used to not be.
He was more, much more,
like he got,
I think during the South Saga,
everybody was beefed up.
Everybody was broader
than a normal.
They were, you know.
They drew the fuck out of, yeah, yeah, for sure.
But like, say, but compared to the
Goku, he was huge.
Because Goku was still pretty big.
Like, look at, like, Kyokin,
um, uh, Goku, yeah, beefed up.
Yeah, he was big.
He was a big guy.
He was a very big dude.
And then obviously in the South Saga, they, um,
they trimmed down.
They went very big on muscle.
It was a lot of, like, striated muscle.
And then in Dragon Balls.
Yeah, I remember, what was it, Super Vegeta?
Or, like, where he was like,
ascended or something and he got like fucking
beef the fuck up.
He ripped Android 19's arms off.
Oh, right, right, right, right.
That shit was crazy.
What was it?
Does a machine like yourself ever experience fear?
Fucking insane.
That was so mean.
It was so crazy.
It was really fucking cruel.
But also fuck Android 19.
Jijing Ping looking fucking idiot.
Jeezing Ping.
Fucking.
Dude.
Somebody photoshopped him like that?
I lost my phone.
Yeah, that was, that was the, no, it wasn't, it was Kim Jong, it was Kim Jong, I think, or Kim Jong,
or is it ill, is it ill, ooh, you're right, you're, I know I have, hold, Kim, Kim, it'll pop up
immediately, Android 19. That shit's in my phone, like, I have that favorite.
Yeah, dude, it's so fucking funny.
That's always clapping, right? You can see like the, you can see the button, that, that's amazing.
It's amazing. It looks exactly like, it's just accurate. That is a wild visit. The fact
that that piece of shit made an android look like that too?
You're like, what is wrong with you, dude?
What's a little racist?
It's a little racist.
It's a little racist.
It's just like, it's such a crazy design.
Dude, the funniest part ever is where when Virginia gets his arm broken, he just holds his arm.
It just looks up.
And then he kicks him into a rock.
And I was like, yo, that's so fucking me.
You know, Virginia gets
Virginia gets really abused
A lot in this series, man
He gets like straight up
Just the most mean shit happens to him
But I think he's a mean person
I think that's like Toriyama being like
Look what happened when you're an asshole
The asshole
The world is an asshole back to you
But it's like dude
He didn't deserve all that man
She broke his arm bro
She broke his arm
And he couldn't scream
He was in so much pain
He couldn't yell about it
And I was like
Yo
Damn dude
Dude, that must suck.
But also remember when you beat up a four-year-old,
remember when you beat up a four-year-old when he helped you get back to a safe planet?
Remember that when they wished you back to life and you immediately fought a child?
And it's like, damn.
Got to do what you got to do, man.
I like in the freezes out, like when they all come back to life.
And then Vegeta runs up to them and he goes like,
and then he disappears.
He gets like teleported somewhere else.
He flies up to them.
He's like, what are you doing?
And he's going to go to grab.
That's right.
That's right.
That's right. Okay.
It's so funny in retrospect, because he just kind of like flies up to them hoping, like hoping that he can do something.
And then it just teleports him away.
He's like, Frisa, I've gotten so much stronger.
I can probably beat you now.
And they're both like, Virginia, no, you can't.
Like, just get out of here, Virginia.
Like, you're not where you need to be yet.
And he's like, yeah, I'm going to.
And he just, I will say, was it, was it in, was it GT or Battle of Gods that Vegeta kills?
Because I can't remember.
I feel like there was a moment like that
where Vegeta killed freezer or something.
It was, it was, uh, resurrection F.
He was, he was, he beat up Friza.
He was about to, yeah.
But then Freeza blew up the planet.
Right, right, right, right.
And then they got rewound and Goku just killed Freeze in front of him.
He was like, come on, bro.
Oh, that's right.
And I was like, come on, dude.
Why would you take that from it?
That's, I just,
super makes me so angry because, like, I really don't think
the character of
Vegeta would have been okay
with Freezer fighting alongside him
in the tournament of power
I really don't think
I think Virginia
Regina loathes freezer
He really hates him
Like really hates him
You said freezer with a hard R
He did it
It did and I was
I thought that was his name
When I was his name was little
When I thought his name was his freezer
You couldn't have
And I was like
Yes
Wait what's his dad's name
Isn't it something like
Isn't it something like
Close to that
Like General Cold or some shit?
What's his name?
King Cold.
King Cold is bad and his brother's name is cooler.
And his parents' his name is Frost.
It's so goddamn stupid.
I love it though.
Dude,
like I love that.
It's a dumb name scheme, bro.
It's funny.
I love it.
It is.
There was a tweet that was going around that was like this,
this guy really just made a show where everybody's named after
vegetables and underwear.
Yeah.
And everybody took it 100% seriously.
Chee-chee.
Yeah.
He likes food.
All of.
He likes food.
he likes
woman's body parts
he's a big fan of
underwear it makes sense
it makes sense it's it's funny
I don't know men
anyway let's get a couple of these questions
and we'll get out of here
uh
oh tee boy Joe Biden's
boy pussy wrote in he says hey guys
how does it feel knowing you guys killed the creator of TBZ
it is weird
is it look we talk about Dragon Ball I feel like
kind of regularly but not necessarily
to the extent that it wasn't a coincidence
that we had talked about it literally
in like a previous episode
and then it had like he might have died
while we were doing the episode
can you imagine if the timing lines up based on like when it went live
he died the first he died the first
oh did he died the first of March
I rejected that because I didn't
I didn't even I looked it up and I was like
I'm not even gonna that it doesn't track with me
because the world found out yesterday
that's true
that's when he died
so even though even that's what he is
died in my in my canon
and like I just I'm not even going to
accept the first as a I didn't know
I didn't know when Hitler died until
a few minutes ago so Hitler died
a few minutes. He's been alive
the whole goddamn time
just in that damn bunker.
Hey man he might be
in Argentina right now as a fucking like what like
a hundred or something I don't know you never know.
I feel like that's the kind of motherfucker to live long to
yeah I mean fucking
a lot of the worst not
Nazis lived long, lavish lives in Argentina in South America.
It's fucked up.
They lived like kings, dude.
That's why you go to Argentina and, like, there's a bunch of brown motherfuckers,
and there's this one stark white motherfucker.
And you're like, what are you doing here?
I think I might have told you guys that I bought a motorcycle in 2011,
and I bought a helmet off a Craigslist.
The guy that I bought from was almost seven foot, long, blonde hair,
and I couldn't pinpoint his accent.
I was like, hey, dude, where are you from?
So I'm from Argentina.
I was like, of course.
I was like a fucking course you are.
You fucking Nazi.
He's so big.
You relocated to Argentina.
You're not from there.
You're not from Argentina.
How old was he?
How old was he?
He looked like he was.
Can you imagine?
He was like one of the OGs.
He was a,
I mean, I'm sure he was absolutely a descendant.
He looked like he was probably his 30s.
It was probably his 30s.
That's what people.
When people like, this is mean.
This is very not nice.
This is petty as fuck.
Uh, being a boxing fan, right?
And people being, like, Mexicans loving Canelo.
And I'm like, you guys love Canelo so much.
You know he's a conqueror, right?
Have you seen the way he looks?
He's a conqueror and everybody gets so mad.
I love making fun of Robert Canelo because of the fact that I think he's way worse for boxing and people give him credit for it.
He fought Floyd when he was way out of his prime and Floyd made the beat the fuck out of him.
He beat the shit out of him and everybody forgets that fight.
And I'm like, yo, no.
Floyd beat his ass when he was well out of his prime either to be fair to be fair
Canella wasn't in his prime he was definitely in his prime stuff I would love to see I would love to see prime both of them go together and just and I would still believe I still believe May their weather Mayweather would win just like it would be a sad fight he he stopped a prime Ricky Hatton and like absolutely like so I know I agree I agree I agree but I still wouldn't I don't think that's like one to one like as far as like him being in his prime but
I do like the idea of, I love that.
I just, I like the idea of him being so white, so ginger.
That's what's so funny to me.
Like, it's, I, I, I, obviously, we know why.
And just like, say, being in the United States, it does, you know, it doesn't, we get it.
We don't matter.
Doesn't mean anything, literally, but like, it's just funny.
You were born in this country, short, you are, you are, you are national, your nationality is Mexican, 100%.
Also, he's actually a really, he's actually a, like, he's grown into a very respect.
He was kind of obviously the young hot shot dickhead, but he grew up into like a very real like every fight after he has a fight with somebody.
These shows him nothing but love and respect.
He's like he's like really nice his son.
He's like, hey, man, it's okay to cry.
Don't worry about this.
I just like a boy or anything like that.
Hello.
And I'm Canelo Averres.
Hello.
Hello.
His voice is so like, hey.
Open the puita.
Iver la puita.
Why is your voice so high, dude?
Like, why is your voice so high?
I know you're on steroids.
What's going on?
It's because how Hispanics, when they speak Spanish, opposed to how they speak English.
That is like every person that's in first language of Spanish, when they speak English, they sound way softer.
Hey.
But then there's the radio niggas that are like, bueno.
Bueno.
Tell him to say hello.
He'll be like zero, zero, no, no, fucking Mexican radio.
Toriyama.
Toriyama is forever a legend for having the shortest.
and baldest and weakest guy
pull Android 18
Facts
He gave hope to a lot of
like people who thought
Like there is no hope
And it's like look at Krillin man
He's busting nuts and gears and shit like
I don't know
Like people would be like
Someone just like this is one of my
Somebody I follow to these guys
Still can't believe
Anyone thought Mr. Paul was supposed to be a black person
What black person do you know
Where's a turban
has a Kami 12s on.
I'm like, look, he is literally black.
Like, he literally is black.
He's the shade.
Like, I understand.
He's not a black guy.
He's black.
He's black person, but that's a black person, you know?
It's a black creature.
There's a black creature.
There you go.
It sounds funny.
I don't know what the hell.
I don't know.
I don't know if it's like even a, what is he?
Like a demon or like an angel or something?
Yeah.
He's a god's attendant.
Yeah, but like what?

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 a billboard of yours 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 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 Firm, thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit for thepeople.com for an office near you.
Is he, though?
That's all he is.
That's what he is.
Hold on.
What is Mr. Popo?
Nica.
Based on fucking, um, uh, species megrood.
Based on what was that tap-dap dancing bitch?
Uh, what's her name?
Waring the black face?
Oh my God.
Was it Shirley Temple?
Shirley Temple.
Is it Shirley Temple?
Is that the right one I'm thinking of?
There's a mole cracker in my soup.
Fungin rabbits.
Spoof.
and spooks
animal nits in my
dude when they showed her
the scene where she like she first
has the black face on you can tell she knows
she's doing something wrong
like as a child she's like mom and dad
this is not gonna age well
can you please not me then they were like
put that fucking makeup on and go out there and dance
you put that fucking makeup on now
before I beat you again dance and make us money
so we could drink
drink it away.
Go ahead and make.
Yeah, that's crazy, dude.
When did she die?
Let's see.
Yesterday.
Shirley Temple died last night
alongside of Toriyama.
That'd be crazy.
Two legends.
And they found her
with blackface on.
Like, they just, they did like a,
they did a suicide,
they did a suicide pact on
with fucking black face.
Toriyama died dressing Mr.
Popo.
He's dressed like Mr. Popo.
That would be so fucking inside.
I'm going to be the craziest thing ever.
Oh, that makes...
Will we correct?
A lot of sense.
He was based off of...
Oh, okay, go ahead.
He's based on, apparently...
Hold on, wait.
Shirley Temple.
His name is Mahakala is a deity common to Hinduism and Buddhism.
Mahakala, God of time, creation, destruction, and power.
Ah.
And if you look up pictures of this guy, it's kind of crazy.
Because it is just...
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
It's very...
It's kind of shockingly, Mr. Popo.
Mahakana?
Why does he look so evil?
Like, the god of time?
Oh, my God.
Yeah, that's Mr. Popo, for sure.
I wouldn't want that nigga to be around me at all.
Like, you're like, oh, what time is in?
This dude appears like, ah, I don't care.
I don't care anymore.
Ha! ha!
That nigg looks like a Pokemon.
It's 12.
It's 12 o'clock.
That's all he's snarling like a fucking savage demon.
Dude, he looks fucking.
Trying to tell you the time.
Like his eyes are like wide.
He's so mad.
He's so angry.
What makes it crazy is I think they, I think what happened was they just the first African that went to the India was a black guy with three eyes.
And then they just drew this dude.
This is what I saw.
He just had to tell time.
Yeah.
That's it.
That's exactly.
Dude, that.
He is scary, man.
He is actually terrifying.
Like there's one.
where his eyes, they're so wide.
He's so, like, it is really amazing.
He's so, like, try to do that.
You have to really be angry to be like, like,
he looks like chef to me a little bit.
Oh, no, why would you say that?
That's crazy.
I mean, that's, look, that's you, man.
You got some, you got some demons.
This was the way that he holds his hands.
Like, hey, children, you know, it's like the hands.
I did not, I did not get chef from that at all.
But, like, I mean, listen, man, like, you've got,
if you have certain internalized things that you have to process,
It's not internalized.
In fact, externalizes them telling you guys about it.
Hello, children.
What time is it?
Yeah, I'm McCall.
I got a time.
See?
Push it to do into hydraulic press.
All right, let's, uh...
Come here, Carmen, see?
We didn't, uh, we didn't get to a lot of the questions.
I mean, a lot of the questions are basically just telling us that we killed him.
To be fair
That's so nice
That is what a lot of them
There's one
Somebody
We'll get to this one
And then we'll go
It's not a question
But a clarification
It's one that I think
Everybody knows
But just to clarify
For some people
Who might be listening
And might not know
Sure
We mentioned it earlier
That Goku's voice actor
In Japan
Is a woman
And she sounds very much
Like a woman
It's not like a
You know
Put on a male voice or anything
He goes
Hey boys
Toriana
Toriyama
Passing
Remited me
Of you guys
Saying you didn't
Understand
Why Japanese Goku
was a girl
I didn't say
I didn't
Understand
I said I didn't
Love it
I understood why.
I really don't like it.
Well, I'm here to bring that answer.
Toriyama himself chose her when he was looking for,
looking for during the audition for the original Dragon Ball.
She apparently gives off Goku's hick energy and accent incredibly well.
Love you boys, rest in peace.
I always assumed it was like to give, like, to make it clear that it was like he was childlike.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, he was still like a good nature kid or whatever.
Which is fine.
Like, I get it theoretically.
And even as like as I watched some of the Japanese version, like,
I did get used to it, but I still like, Sean.
Shemmel is like
Sean Shemmel's that
that guy to me
Do you know how I found this out?
I found out where we had a
knock off
I don't know what
this was a Japanese
cartridge of it was like a Japanese
Super Nintendo I don't know what the fuck this thing
was but if you
you had to
if you took off this
probably and I just
I've never seen it before when I was a kid
and I was like what the fuck is this
but then you could you know you could
you could alter
do something on your Super Nintendo
that would have it work
so you were able to play it
and it was like jail breaking it essentially
and that's when we're like oh sick
we have this fucking fighting game
and then Goku sounded like
a whiny little fucking woman
and I was like I can't play this
I remember when it was
Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Battle 22 was the PS1
game that I played that I remember
and it was all in Japanese like there was no English option
available
a fucking mess.
I remember playing that game.
That game was so confusing.
It was weird.
It played how a little kid's nightmare of Dragon Ballsie would go on.
It was barely any control.
You don't know what's going on.
Final bout was way worse.
Final bout was bad too.
Ultimate Battle 22 was like,
it was a mess, but it was like at least like
a stable mess.
But like Final bout was fucking unreadable.
Like early 3D, not very good.
They were at least still using sprites for Ultimate Battle 22.
And they had that cool cheat code
that you could put in the star screen
And then it would become ultimate battle
27 or something or 28
And you would get like
Five extra characters
Dude I remember that shit being so confi
I remember seeing that and being like
What's Dragon Ball GT?
I'm still watching Dragon Ball Zee
What's going?
Yeah I thought
GT was like
I thought GT was like
A fan creation thing or something
Like I didn't know it was original
Or like real
I thought it was just fan fiction or something
because I was like, what the fuck is this is baby, Vegeta?
That's not even a baby.
It's not even a baby.
That's a grown-ass man.
So what I put in the chat, I'm pretty sure it was this.
This is the one that I had.
And I remember that cartridge.
And I was like, this is fucking weird.
What is this?
What is this called?
Dragon Ball Z.
Hyper dimension.
What?
Hyper dimension.
Yeah.
I just remember the cartridge.
Like, that was on there.
and I was like, this is, I was like, I can't play this.
It was just, it just, I still not.
You said you got used to it.
I still haven't.
I don't like, I mean, I got, I got okay with it, but it's not, it's not my preferred.
Like, if, like, I never sat and was like, oh, I can't wait to see the new episodes, so I'll watch it in this.
I was like, no, I was always going to wait for Sean Schemble and Christopher Sabbath to do their thing with it.
I always waited.
Yeah.
Even when I'm like, fuck, I want to watch some of the super.
I was like, fuck, I want to watch super.
I was like, oh, I'm waiting.
I watched super in Japanese.
We watched it.
We were doing like, we were doing hosting like watch parties every time it came out though.
So we watched in Japanese at our house.
Yeah.
But I hated it.
I couldn't say.
I was so thoroughly.
Like I was so,
because not only did I not like what was happening in it.
Like I didn't like what the story was.
It was just like, oh, remember those movies that you already saw?
Right.
We're going to do those again, but slower.
And it's like, why?
Just do the movie.
It's dumb.
That's not a feel about the manga.
The manga, they did fucking Dragon Ball superhero over again.
And I was like, why?
And now finally, finally now Goku and Gohan are fighting in like old transing and beast mode.
And I'm like, this is really, really cool.
We could have been through this a well long time ago and already saw the conclusion.
But I guess we're there now.
Yeah.
It's time to wrap it up, man.
He's fucking, he's gone.
This, the slits.
They're not rapid.
It's not often, look, it's not often that when someone dies, we would dedicate basically an entire episode.
Literally.
This is, this is.
That's insane.
This is the first time we've ever done this.
The fact that there is enough there to do that.
We're not even done.
There's still more we can talk about, too.
That's what's crazy.
We could talk about, yeah, there's a lot.
There's a lot.
We even get into Chrono Trigger and shit like that.
Like that is a whole other fucking masterpiece.
I know Sandland.
I know Sandland is coming out too.
So like, there's a whole bunch.
Maybe if he dies again.
we'll do it.
But,
rest and peace,
secure Torayama,
a goat,
legend.
Yeah.
And let's move on.
Let's get the fuck on out of here.
All right.
We're going to read,
we're going to read our $25.
and up patrons
over at patreon.com slash a snark tank.
Where you can go over there
and get at free,
early access to certain things
and exclusive shows.
You're all right,
bud?
That was fucking scary.
I think I saw something
that really unsettled me
and I didn't,
I didn't let my eyes focus on it.
You got to what you're,
With what you were doing.
That's a kind of, that shit happens to be too often.
Like when you're like, when you're, like, when you're watching something that's supposed
to be scary and you don't focus your eyes, say, like, how are you know what's going on.
It's going on.
I'm not really scared in this.
It can't scare me.
I'm watching.
I do that sometimes when I, like, like, when I made fun of that fucking pronouns guy, that fat British dude.
And then, like, after the quartering got to it, a bunch of this fucking retarded fan bases poured in my mentions.
and so after a while my eyes just started just glazing.
I was like, I'm not even read this shit anymore
because it just gets like tired.
I'm like, I get it.
I get it.
I'm surprised those fat, greasy retards aren't talking about how Akiratorialama died
because he was woke or something.
I'm surprised.
Like I don't like I.
They probably are.
Wokeness killed the curator.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm going to check the quarter of page.
I could see that.
I could see that happening easily.
But I wish the quartering was just, I wish the quartering got a spirit.
bomb dropped on his house.
That's crazy.
The quartering's not even close to the worst of them.
He's not, which is the gross part.
But he's the leader.
That's actually terrifying.
That is terrifying that he's not the worst, but he still does a lot of damage.
What a rat.
But let's read the names.
Yeah, let's go.
Let's go.
Count me down.

What do people try to.
What do you do is the...
Yeah, yeah, he's good.
This fucking thing is good.
You know what I'm gonna do?
I'm a fucking whispering calling his ear and be, hey, man, you don't need, you don't need
Dustin.
You don't need fucking, uh...
That's so fuck that.
You don't need Beth, you don't need Lockhart.
You don't need Lockhart.
You don't need Mika.
He's just trying to release off.
Your wife is.

This is like an alternate fucking reality.
You don't need any of that, man.
You know, you do, me and Derek.
You don't need, you know, you do steen,
Derek and I.
You know, there's not enough niggas
on your podcast, you know, it's not enough.
You got, you got out a few more.
Yeah, I know your wife's black, but so white.
It's not a good look, Colin.
It's not a good look.
Yeah, we would have to, I mean.
Hopefully that doesn't happen.
Because I mean, I wouldn't be good.
I would have to figure something out too as well.
It's a big deal.
Drastically changed my trajectory of like, oh, yeah, I'm moving over there, guys.
Yeah.
I'd probably get the fuck out of here.
I would have to go back to school and become a nurse very fast.
Very fast.
You just type up.
But I'd be like, yo, I got to go to school right now and become a nurse.
We got like.
Type up.
We got like four months before things get scary.
Yeah.
All right.
Let's keep on.

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.

That's a really good joke.
I like that.
That's almost like, that has like a Mitch Hedberg quality to it.
Kind of, yeah.

In prison had that giant wide neck
His neck like looked like a fucking stingray
Like in the width
And somebody photoshopped
The grape on top of his head
They did the surgery

at my phone probably by far.

I can see it like in a distant future.
Those writers are just gone.
No. So, like, I don't, I just don't work anywhere?
They left, I think, presumably, like a couple years ago.
I assumed the script for GTA6 was already finished.
So, like, that's still probably going to be kind of a banger.
