Yes Watching blade is something that you would do normally. No, no, no.

No, it isn't. He'd go, yes, it is. Blade is the art music artist. That's a minus. That's a minus. That's a minus. Erk. To the audience, he means the artist Blade.

The Drain. The Drainer Blade. I thought he meant the movie. I thought they made a new Blade movie. Not the Wesley Snipes movie. I thought they made a new one. We thought he was coming down here and we could see. I thought he was back.

That's, okay. You know what? Not an unfair thing to do. He's a little back. Wesley Snipes? Spoiler. Well, spoiler. Or Blade the Movie. I don't want to spoil what movie it is. Could be a little spoiler if they haven't seen it. Were you spoiling movies? Oh, Deadpool. Yeah. It's a Deadpool spoiler. Okay, well we spoiled it now. Spoiler. Did it myself. So when he's like, yeah, you know, we're trying to go to Universal. Do you want to come? I'm like, yes, I will make time for someone who is never here. And this is something I do normally.

It doesn't matter what it is. If it was Disney, I'd be like, yeah, I'll fucking go. And you guys are acting like it's some fucking solar eclipse of the apocalypse. You won't come hang out at Penis Star League. I don't like Penis Star League. I'm bad at those games. You won't come hang out at penis star league. I don't like penis star league I'm bad at those games. You don't like fucking Universal Studios. You get mad that I don't go to PSL, huh? I- I- What is it? What is it? Why don't you want me to be a PSL? You don't hang out with us and then fucking brawl pro comes off and then you're like, how can I suck the shmeg? If I haven't seen you in uh, fucking in months and you're like, hey, I'm in town

Do you want to hang out? I won't be on the podcast for the next four episodes. Okay, fu- good! Good! Is it a cooldown? Then you'll realize how much you miss it. Cause then he'll actually hang out with me. What is the problem? I need- I apparently need to be away to get hangout rights.

This is crazy! I need to be away. This is crazy! I need to be away for you. You don't consider this hanging out, do you? This is work. I think that's the difference. I consider it hanging out. Ugh, so you I need to be away from you. You don't consider this hanging out, do you? This is work. I think that's the difference.

I consider it hanging out. Oh, so you're sick for that. And you consider it work. You're feeling, you feel like a girl. You're sick for that. That's how girls feel. Is he not sick for that? It's funny because usually this is the opposite.

Is it not? This is not, this is not. This is the time that I cherish, but for you, this is like lights off, like three minutes and you come in my asshole hanging out. This is us like being together in the same room. And I guess you don't. That's crazy. That's what I'm saying.

That's crazy. You don't acknowledge that. Oh my God. Time versus quality time. Thank you. Because there's such a thing as quality time and there's such a thing as regular time. And this is regular time. Okay, to look escape the bit slightly for a second here

Do you realize when we hang out and you do something hilarious and it is goes uncaptured I feel like this should go captured So when we hang out and something funny happens and you and it goes out to the world in the medium of the show That is fulfilling to me. Do you not understand? That's how much for content Content guy I like doing stuff for just you content guy you speaking thumbnails I don't hear it this thing all crashed and burned. I'd still be fine hanging out You guys want to go with me to Universal fuck? No, those guys are fun

I don't want to fucking ever meet this brawl. I do I was you want to go on a date with my boyfriend meet this brawl program. That's what I said. Dude, how was that? Do you want to go on a date with my boyfriend? Yeah, right? Yeah, that sounds awesome. You know I was thinking that because I said this in the group chat. I said this in the group chat and then you were like, you know what we said in response

to this? That is fucking insane. It is! I'm on the same day where I'm at. So it's insane that I'm going to see Blade even though I don't give a shit. It is insane that you're going to see Blade. He's visiting! We've never hung out in person ever! I'm going to see blade even though I don't give a shit Insane that you will be at a blade

The reason I care but I'll go with my friend music is less weird because you really like music But you just don't like amusement parks at all. I think they're fine. I don't care about it. You've lasted two and a half hours It's a music part across the street my house. I'd be like, yeah, it's way more tolerable. It's like having to go and be in the sun and jerk your shit and have them like scan your card. You gotta jerk your shit. There's a lot of shit going on. So, for, by the way, called it to a fucking T. Called what? Cause Q-D. Q-D was like, she was like, you should come to Disney.

And I was like, okay, well, I would have to get there around like eight-ish. And she's like, yeah, well, so I'm gonna last the whole night. ish. And she's like, yeah, well, someone last the whole night. I'm like, I don't think you will. I don't think I think what will happen is will be there. And eventually you'll go to a ride and they'll be like, after this ride, let's go. And do that. You fucking lied. You said she told me four rides. Well, it was on camera the whole time.

To be clear, I did not say one ride. Yes, you just did. Oh, I just I just said, no, that's not what I said. you guys can listen to what I said or you can make up what I said. You said go to a ride. You said go to a ride. You said go to a ride. No, no, I said this ride. He said go to a ride.

Yeah. I don't think he meant one ride. I did it. I did it. Well, then what you say go to. But it's fun that Aiden added first to a sentence I didn't say. That's funny. Oh, right.

Wait, does that mean? You added the word first. When you say go to a ride, does that mean if it's the seventh ride and I'm one to a sentence I didn't say. That's fine. Wait, does that mean? You added the word first. When you say go to a ride, does that mean if it's the seventh ride and I'm one to go home? What the fuck did you even say? I think his point was that by eight you wouldn't be there anymore. She said you were going to last a whole night and I said at one point you were going to

ask after a ride, you're going to say, hey, let's go after this ride. You're going to pick a point where to exit. I'm in Swedish mode, like A, and one. There's I'm in I'm in Swedish mode. Uh, like a and That's a Swedish a Swede I think it's like a realistic thing for him. Yeah, he's finished anyway You were half right like I lasted pretty long But I done ran long, but I done ran out of dick. I knew you would. I knew you would sweetheart. Not for Brawl Pro though.

I'm probably going to run out of dick there too. I'm probably not going to stay long. They're going to be like, we're going to go to dinner after this. You want to come and be like, yeah, no, I'm just sounds fun. I'm so mad. Why can't I have a Pakistani best friend from St. Louis who plays Tekken really well? You can have half of that. I'll let you choose which half.

You get to choose any of the three things. I didn't even organize any of this shit. They're just like, hey, a bunch of us are going, do you want to come? I hemmed in hard, by the way. I was like, oh, I don't know. A bunch of us, huh? A slurry! If you will.

Rob Bro's friend slurry! Because he can't spend quality time! I'm not extremely happy about going, but they really want me to go so I was like you know what this isn't gonna happen again for a long time Yeah, you know what does happen and all the time you eating fucking ice cream by the gallon every single night, okay now we're going there You want to get ice cream?

Uh-huh. Yeah, you tricked me into hanging out with my friend. Oh, I'm so mad. Yeah. Like, no, dude. That's why I'm going to fucking dumbass Universal. And that's why he's going to come back to every PSL from now on. Yay.

What is there for me to do at PSL? Play video games with your friends. Play video games. That's one of the main activities we're actually doing. You know, that we usually hang out and play video games that thing we do you do you want me to go to PSO Yes, that's why I'm bringing up constantly that you go. You go. No, I don't want to go to PSL No, I'm actually I want you to fucking kill yourself with the gun never That's why I'm asking is being me That what I'm like

Unreasonable someone some would say. I wouldn't say that. You sound unreasonable to me. Uh, I, I, okay. Well, you know what, fucking fucker? I don't know if I'll go. I really thought that was like, you know, fuck it, I'll go. I can't believe you want me to go that bad.

No, I don't care. You've never reached out for me to go. I genuinely don't care. I genuinely don't even care. That's, that's the real answer. I don't even give a fuck. That's the real fucking answer. You sure? Obviously not. I don't go all the time, but I have fun when I do I

Frag out and blackout Tell you hey, you should go to PSO. He's frying Uh, no, but that's cuz I already am in the chat and respond and go sometimes. Oh, I'm not in the chat Yeah, the chat now. There's JR dude a lot of people don't make the cut the Not in the chat. He's not in the chat, no. He was on stream. Well, that's exactly what I said. That's what I said. I was like, who is Jay R?

The WAMMEN have taken it, dude. It was a scene. They kept, there were whispers. They kept talking about VSL. VSL. And I was like, what's going on? And they're like, no, don't worry about it. It's our thing. Vagina Star League thing Vagina Star League has started up and then I come home the other week and I I Accidentally interrupt VSL which is the assortment of you know zippers They made them strip naked and dance Yeah, and they threw tomatoes at me. You had to get on the table and they play poker

No You had to get on the table and they play poker no Poker vs. L. Yes, and it's girl poker someone loses the hand they all clap for each other Shipping it in on fucking 4% equity hitting your two outer and going yeah And they can't even defend themselves because they know a podcast fucking go boys. Uh, VSL, you know what? I hope this has inspired people at home to start their own PS or VSL. I think that'd be, that's a fun idea. That's like makes me feel warm inside.

What is Blood Waffling about? Why the fuck are you saying it too? Like what? You haven't even gone. You don't even go. Nope, they do it. You don't even go. You don't even go. I think a trend that I'm noticing, right,

is like he said no to the basketball because it's a slurry and it's not really hanging out. But then PSL's arrived at the table. You know, that's another slurry perhaps. I'm staying consistent. But how many slurries before it's just friends hanging out? Yeah, that's a good question, Aiden. That's actually a really good question.

I think, again, to escape the bit for two seconds, the half second, How many slurries before it's just friends hanging out? Yeah, that's a good question, Aiden. That's actually a really good question. I think, again, to escape the bit for two seconds, the half bit, because a lot of this is true, I have this idea of like you show up for the important stuff. You go to weddings. You make time when someone's like in town. Yeah. Birthdays, in some cases.

Uh, sh- Uh, and the rest, like, if guys, birthdays in some cases. And the rest, like, if guys, if we didn't have a show where we saw each other multiple times a week, I would hang out more. But this this is beautiful to me. I'd love this shit. Maybe you guys don't love it as much as I do. I love this shit.

Here we go. I love this shit. I'm about this shit. I think about this all the time. I love it. And that's not how you feel. that's okay because you're dressed like a fucking yacht referee I don't like don't put that in your mouth Plastic it's safe so big dude that that mouth just tracing the outline of Minnie Mouse It looks like a toe it doesn't do that. I didn't like that. I'm just doing things with it

Yeah, man, I feel like a whatever you're probably the way if PSL is fucking that if PSL was a Tekken local you would come Oh, it's such a better drive than the normal ones. Yeah, but open Open if I mean if we're if everyone is playing Tekken and it was PSL crew, yeah that'd be so fun. Do you think you'd be the worst player at PSL? Uh... I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Was that said to be well is QT going?

No! I was gonna say well is QN on a good podcast or is it a bad thing? Is QN on a good thing or a bad thing? I don't even know. I don't know. They're probably on the RSS wave. So, I don't know. Wow. Okay. A lot much to think about here. I'll tell you what, I'm one of the worst players at VSL.

And I still have a good time at PSL. I'm also one of the worst players at VSL, and I still have a good time at PSL Yes, I bought a bottom on both dude. I got extra died. I fucking sent to my room.

Yingo has put an insane amount of time in already He's a higher rank than me. He's getting boosted by fucking Shakedrizzle. Why don't you get boosted by Shakedrizzle? I don't get boosted. It's against my fucking code. Oh, okay. Guy who's playing Bataric

Guy who literally, literally after that, that was just two years ago, has done nothing but fucking solo Q and refuses or do use a stance who's worse than him. Worse than you and Vela Sanzis by rank and by performance. Yeah, by all metrics that one would last night. Last night stands someone else stands like what's yourorant rank? And he was like, Diamond. And Lud from the fucking rafters, OH, WHAT?

Wait, so he's not Diamond now and he's still claiming that? That's fine. Yeah, he was like, he phrased it like, oh I peaked Diamond. Okay, okay. Like low Diamond. It would be funny to be like, for one game. Bro, he did sneeze on it. He did fucking sneeze on it. And then the blow from a sneeze blew him back to plat so wait

Do you know so yingling has no qualms about being boosted by shake drizzle the master? What was this guy this is Lisa? He used to be a master Lisa player. Mm-hmm shakes also He like he's not working out anymore. Yeah, he sent a message to the group chat for the editors. I don't know if you read it out, it was kind of funny. Dude, no. Because I see when he plays... Dude, you picking up the phone with the glove is so funny. I see when he plays because I have like, we're friends on Discord,

so it'll be like, Sheik is in a game and I'm up at... I'm up late last night because I was just hanging out with Q2, it was like 3.30. And I see Sheik in a game six minutes in. And I sent him a message. I'm like, go to sleep. Go to sleep. They are playing at like five. And this new Discord feature, the it's a dark, you know, it's it darks so hard. It does Josh called Shake out, which is funny because Josh also plays a lot of league.

So you know, if Josh is identifying this, it's a lot of league so you know if Josh is identifying this it's a lot And then it's 80 hours I think more than 80 because he has like 160 games in the past two weeks or something crazy. Oh my god I don't know the exact I don't know if you can pull up rich op.gg And then shake drizzle, but we can see the exact amount of games anyway He posts in the group chat goes I would like to apologize for my league relapse I couldn't live with myself being placed bronze not playing any more games till I finished streamer games at it Also, and then he just talked about another at it, but he said oh my god a group apology

With all the editors in it for his league time. It hasn't been bad We've been fine on the upload frequency because we had some other shit, but yeah, he has been addicted All this is bad because it's affecting the company even I'm like I'm on I'm on the outer rim of this I've booted up for the first time in a couple years let's be honest you're part of it part of it yeah did you not boot up before second the office? Zoom in it shows it right there it's the recent game it's just so like recent games in total amount I can't see it cuz my eyes aren't good like that if you hold ctrl and scroll in Strong accusation yes, go down a little bit

Zippers not here that number that number the total games. This is recent. I can't see it though so we silver to 77 and 72 so do you like challenger ten years ago No, that's not a challenge. I don't think they had challenger when he was really didn't have master either I think he was like it was based off LP. I think yeah, he was a high he played with like pros He was high a long ass time ago. There's also me and Dota, but I don't talk about this way to gold Back when Lee was just warehouse employees who played it I bet I don't talk about it. It's the way to gold.

Back when League was just warehouse employees who played it. Back when League was good, man. Bros, I'ma keep it fucking real with you. I have a Helix sleep mattress and it has completely reinvented my entire life. Do you think it fixed my sleep? You think it helped me sleep better? What's wrong? Tell me what's wrong with your sleep.

After a long day of chasing down the Chaos Emeralds, my back is all fucked up. Oh, you're doing a Sonic thing, yeah. Okay, well Sonic the Hedgehog. Oh no, you mean Knuckles. Yeah I'm shadow shadow get it right well yeah I'm getting. He's telling how they all have gloves. And they all chase the chaos emeralds. And they all want the chaos emeralds. Oh yeah he wants the chaos and then he's getting the master. But I'm gonna control the chaos and I need a good night's sleep. Shadow the hedgehog what is your sleep looking like right now? You ever got your back blown out? It's looking at like six six hours a night. Scoliosis abundant. If you're like Shadow the Hedgehog, Knuckles the Echidna or Sonic the Hedgehog,

you might be interested in Helix Sleep. Yeah, I have a Helix Sleep mattress. What I like about it is that it has sleep zones. So depending on the part of your body that you're sleeping on, it gives you varying levels of support. And also, if your partner's rolling around, you don't move. They got a big and tall option. How fast is she rolling around?

Very quickly. What if I'm a picky guy like if I want a bunch of different options and I don't know what to pick? Well, personally, I have the I have the Luxe edition. It's award-winning. It's one of wards. I had to dude I had to unzip that John and put a big old comfortable thing inside of it when I got it. It was crazy. Now you get to sleep on the comfortable thing. And now you got to sleep on the comfortable thing. It's also good for big and tall. It's not really relevant to you, but it does have big and tall shadow.

If you want to get a Helix Sleep mattress like me, Helix is offering up to 25% off of all mattress orders and two free pillows for our listeners. I have them. They're great. Go to helixsleep.com slash the yard. That's helixsleep.com slash the yard. This is their best offer yet and it won't last long. With Helix, better sleep starts now. You can also do... I'm needing it. You can also do a quiz. Oh the quiz is good

I took the quiz and then I got the one that the quiz told me to get and I liked it So the quiz worked for me I could vouch for that much. Okay, so blevin what else is do mattresses? What are they good for the quiz? So I'm sleeping outside right now that will happen if you're like blevin, but it's very rare very little people are like Will happen if you're like blevin, but it's very rare very little people are like So now I'm gonna use chaos control to go back to the episode chaos chaos control I'm minutes away from playing my first game of League. Yeah It's a disease that's running through the office. You said Aiden's a part of it. We have well he played four games He also is doing office like I'm I think I call Christian for work some he's like

Oh, he's like, oh, yeah Sorry in a fucking five stack playing league in the office. Oh his office bonded. It was office bonding Josh corralled this It was like course Josh I walk back into the office and he's like hey, didn't hate it He's like join our join our four stack and it's him yingling and Christian and Three stacking links sitting next to each other in the office. No, we tried to get Nick to play. And then we sucked Shake Drizzle in to round out the five stack. I got home last night, super late from PSL, like midnight.

And and cuties in a league game. I'm locked out the door for whatever reason doesn't work. I can't open it. I'm like, I'm like, hey, can you get me? She's like, I'm in a game. Yeah, it just booted up. I'm like, I Okay, I can hop the fence or something I think no final come comes downstairs and then opens the door and then runs back up and then and then I don't see Her for two hours. Wow. I sit there and I'm just occasionally every like 30 minutes and be like like you get up there

Thank you. I'm like, okay She's just fucking grinding out games. I haven't seen her all day. That's beast She eventually comes down at 2 I'm like hello. How's it going? She's like, yeah, I lost that game. Oh bro She's gonna go home. They took my camps. I instantly lost shouldn't come home at that time I like how it's like the gang rediscovers online feedback loops Yeah, it's like we've all we've all like just doom cute, right? But League is a different entity. It's been booting up RuneScape.

Oh, yeah. That's my friends back home. He also didn't play RuneScape when he was younger. Right. Like this is not like a nostalgia trip. He's like, isn't he like diving into it for the first time? It's like diving into being schizophrenic. Like, I always want to see what it's like. Not that bad. Let me just give it a shot.

It's not that bad. I like RuneScape but... Yeah, because you grew up with it. Dude, League is taking Nick Yingling away from me. From Cod Ranked. We were duoing. Oh my god, he was so sour. For Boys Night. And I don't blame him. I get this way when I lose a couple games.

But I come over for Boys Night because they're supposed to dec. I get this way when I lose a couple games, but I come I come over for Boys Nikes are supposed to decom and he was in a game. I walk into his place. I'm just stomp because I know his girlfriend's gone. I'm just stomping around saying Boys Night. I just want attention. Yeah. And he's like, you know, right, game, right. Game will be out in like three minutes, like three minutes like Boys Night,

Boys Night, Boys Night. I'm not going into it. I'm not trying to bother him. Love this, by the way, to be a treat for me. I would love this. I'm not trying BOYS NIGHT! BOYS NIGHT! BOYS NIGHT! I'm not going into his- I'm not trying to bother him. I would love this by the way, this would be a treat for me. I would love this. I'm not trying to bother him. And then he comes in, and he's like, we gotta watch the fucking Descendants tonight. I played fucking four ranked games in a row, fucking lost them because people are leaving, and I can't do shit about it.

And I'm like, BOYS NIGHT! BOYS NIGHT! Yeah, you got great energy. I had a guy who joined the game and he goes, anyone got a mic? And no one responds, including me, because I'm music on mode, I'm chilling, no one really calms and ranked if you're under, like, Crimson. So I'm just chilling and he goes, okay.

And from round one, sits in the spawn, doesn't play the whole game. That's so crazy. He throws the entire game because no one responded to it. Am I wrong for saying that's beasts? I don't think it's beasts. You're wasting so much time. It's a little beast. How is it beasts? Because he's so principled that he's willing to lose his own rank for this. And it's a good principle of communicating.

His game tag was SK8 Life, Sk8 Life. And on our team a random we were playing with was named Oli. And the other team's making fun of us because we're getting shit on. And they go, oh Sk8 Life, Sk8 Life. And on our team a random we were playing with was named Oli. And the other team was making fun of us because we were getting shit on. And they go, oh Sk8 Life and Oli, a match made in heaven, huh? And they're making fun of them. He's not even responding because he's AFK.

I think it's Beast because it's also not like he's throwing a bronze game. Why are you, as a man, killing a range and being unwilling to come? Why are you as a man wishing to speak with other men online? That's true actually, fuck he got you there. True. The brotherly camaraderie. Maybe he's a woman. Because maybe the guy's on con range. And he goes, any girls?

Nope. Okay. I'm the only place with one girl. That's crazy. Yeah, and then so he was just in a foul mood. Which was, he was just mad at everything that he would normally be.

Then we had to watch a fucking musical! Slightly mad at, but it was just more mad. We're all becoming each other. Slime's becoming Ludwig, Ludwig's becoming Slime. You're becoming me, and I'm becoming you. How is he becoming you? Because he's doing a lot of games I'm not game Aiden works hard and um I'm still you know I'm picking up the sticks here and there but it's it's record low

gaming for me right now record low gaming and we're all turning into each other yeah PSL is ruining my mind now how is it also a game all the time now it's fun I see it's funny though because Friday like the PSL has ruined my mind. It's poison. The PSL is poison. I play a game all the time now. It's fun. It's funny though because Friday the PSL attendance I think was lower so I'm like, is PSL fucking washed? Is PSL dead? It wasn't even low.

We had a full team all night. There were people who were depressed about it. They were doom-posing. They were like, what do we have to do to get people to PSL? They do that before we even play. They show up and they're're like is it fucking done. I'm like no we everyone's here We're about to play we talking talking about me when we only get 200k on a fucking Why it's so mad because it triggers that Wait how am I becoming Ludwig?

I don't think you're true cuz cuz I hang out with people and I want your attention and you seem to be a loo. You want to hang out with streamers because they're your best friends. You hang out with this guy because you like to sleep. It's literally when you use a fucking yell at me, be like, Carl James, your best fucking friend. Content time counts as hangout time. Yeah, the thing is, nobody you ever idolized back in the day. Fucking Atriox, fans, fucking Carl Jacobs, fucking Carl Jacobs fucking quit don't rub your clothes stop it they were never

Never is gonna take him. Oh Mickey as brawl pros attack That's the that's the Pepsi difference. I would say that a truck was better at a game than brawl pro is at a game Dude, I don't think so star boundbound. Gotcha. What is Starbound? It's a game that HR was the number one player in the world. Wait, HR used to be so good at League. Okay. Look, I'm not going to sit here and say, who are you fucking this and you go. My friend could be your friend in a game off.

Game off. Yeah, I also realized Stan's a gamer. I guess I never respected him as a gamer until yesterday. Oh, because of Halo? Dude, he's a gamer. I guess I never respected him as a gamer until yesterday. Oh, for the Halo? Dude, he's playing Halo. He like I've played Halo and I know the maps, but he's like going purple, too purple, pushing purple gold, gold, gold.

Dude, his comms were amazing. His comms were electric and he was yelling out everything perfectly and he was just slaying out. He won against like, I was like, damn bitch, you got it like that. You know what? I think that me and Sam's are similar in that we're both bad at games. And but we also value calming a lot because it's something we can innately like do initially well. He's he's a peak team player for sure. Yeah.

And I think I share that with him because I would play Valorant and be like, my comms are immaculate, but I can't hit shit. Right. Well, you wouldn't say that, but you're. Would you say his comms are immaculate, but I can't hit shit, right? Well, you wouldn't say that because but you're funny, these comms are immaculate. I think his death comms are good. Yes. Yeah. Yes. When he only is thinking about comms are great. But when he's alive, it is like, don't doubt.

The dinner now. No. Marshall out fucking pushing C. Well, sometimes this is exactly like Dark Souls. There's two on B. Come on, dude. I wouldn't say that in the call. Fucking pushing C. This is exactly like Dark Souls. There's two on B I wouldn't say that in the call. No, but you thinking it. I'm thinking it cuz it is It's just like it when the wolf gets the sword in his mouth I'm bad at the good player thing, which is you get killed and then you calm first and then you complain Yeah, I do the opposite where you complain then you then you complain. Yeah, I do the opposite

Oh, you complain then you calm. Yeah, yeah, you gotta really hard to reverse that. I get beamed and I'm just like fuck god damn it Alright 2a. Just yesterday halo. Dude I was getting slammed in halo. Nick's getting so fucking ruined. He's playing horribly. I was like going to V2. Just go. He's playing horribly and then at one point he's like god, I wish I stopped getting third-party. We're playing to be to be to be to Yeah, man But you signed up for it's so fucking annoying Bro, the god gamer gauntlet. I'm doing is ruining my life. Yeah, you're you're like far away from a dub I know and we're like 60 hours in buy them in buy them in get in the same room I'll solve your problem. It'll fix the marriage.

If anything, here's the issue is I'd have to fly to him because I'm already going to Japan soon. Nippon-de. Oh yeah. But I don't want to go an extra week because I can't. You know what would be hype? You know what I thought of would be hype for a format for this? This far into it, it probably doesn't sound very hype because you just want to be over. But if you get through all ten games, you have to 1v1 each other to determine the winner of the challenge. Well here's what- And only one of you wins. So okay, so we started this god game of

gauntlet. It's been picked up by a few people. Now the biggest one is PapaPlot, the German streamer. He's been doing it and he got like 57,000 viewers doing this with his bud. And I'm watching and I'm looking at the games list. And I'm like, okay, Mario Kart, they have to finish first and second. Okay, that's tough. Against? Against, against League of Legends. Online is the field.

And then, and then I'm like, okay, that's tough. And then they got like, I got like a, I think Fortnite. I'm like, cool. And then it's like Euro Truck Simulator. What the fuck? I'm like, okay? What's the win state? I know and then it's like higher lower Like the Google game, and I'm like okay Just flipping a coin halfway through Mouse lists we're doing here. You gotta make rules like Doug made for the

They exist the rules are 10 competitive games against real people and then you have to have two BRs and that's it. I guess they're following the rules. I think Euro Truck Simulator is actually huge in literally European countries. But I don't think there's a, maybe, I don't know what the win state is. If there's a head to head where it's like drive a better route and there's two people and it's multiplayer and you have to swap fucking, that'd be cool. Bro remember the sub-a-thon when I played Truck Simulator? Dude, this is what I was thinking of Dude, parking those trucks Oh it's hard

It's not I watch you on TikTok, it's what he does exclusively He's like a truck driver Yeah And he gets like- and it's just a parking And he boots in and he's like Oh, yeah, gonna have to be a K-turn here And he just fucking cranks it out

The physics are like- it's like those uh the non-Newtonian fluids that you punch and then it doesn't sink. Oh, yeah It's like that but for parking cars It should nothing works like it should when you learn it though. You seem like a fucking god Anyway, we challenge them to a 2v2. Oh sick when we both complete it. We all four I guess How do you pick what game to play at the end of it? Fucking what to do a melange of both our games, I suppose. Also, Big Ping is gonna...

Big Ping will be Birdo, but... Oh yeah, cause you're covering the globe between that group of people. Yeah. Yeah, but we may do. You think me and Alex can do it? Uh, I, oh, of course you can do it. I also think you guys have an advantage in that you are low-key smurfing a lot of games. Low-key. Cause of the way you're describing it.

You're high-key smurfing. Low-key. Yeah, it's kinda high-key, but... High-key, you're low-key smurfing. How would it be smurfing a lot of games. Low-key. Because of the way you're describing it. You're high-key smurfing. Low-key. It's kinda high-key. High-key? You're low-key smurfing. How would it be smurfing? I think he's just saying you're better than the games you're being placed in at the moment. Well, because he can't queue with Alex in a lot of the games in ranked. So they can't have to play on raiders. You'd have to come down to his level. So you're playing an easier time than it would be if you both were playing games you both play. I see and also I don't think he has gonna get streams up this much and that's what really fucking screws it Really streams? Yeah. Yeah, I guess that happened with it dude. Even when we did the fucking fortnight yard experience

Yeah, we were just it was dude every time I've never seen Connor crash out so hard. He's losing it He's like figured out how to block people on switch Like low-tier God, he knows knows the exact like movements in the controller. Dude, he gets mad. He got mad. And there's this guy who like, cause there's guy in fall guys who sniped us, which was really bad. And it was a team game and then he threw on our team. Oh, that's disgusting.

Push the ball to the end of the mountain and he's just like, no, I will not push it. I will push it opposite way. Don't do anything, bro. And after that, like something broke in his brain like he he was like he crashed out He's fucking and then the guy who he bans on switch comes into his chat and they're like he's like I swear I just happened to boot in I didn't even know Yeah bullshit, dude Man, I'm I'm a man. I'm wow about look man. I don't even on man on YouTube

On YouTube it's fun because when you ban someone they don't know they don't know it's a shadow man It's a shadow bed, so it's so delicious. How does it work? It's you user hidden from channel so other users don't see them, but they're just typing That's sick with YouTube comments. It's the same you can hide user from channel, they will continue to comment on your video That's so genius because then they don't make a second account Yeah Oh, that's beautiful Because on Twitch it's like you are banned and it's like submit on ban request and on YouTube it's just like

It should do that with like their family members too Like if they message like their mom, their mom just doesn't get it Yeah Or they think they're messaging her That is a Black Mirror episode, that is the Don Draper one You become a right-wing creator. Fucking shadow ban. Your fucking message can't be spread anymore.

Yo. That's what they do. They put the muzzle on you and Joe Biden fucking, and he licks your ear and he says, go sleep. Trump got fucking shot at again. Yeah, what a flop assassination attempt. Dude, what's funny is I went on Reddit and that's where I found out about it.

Cause I'm on Twitter and my phone. Okay. Yeah, you look awesome You look good. We like it It's like dude imagine the Patrick Bateman fucking, you know See on reddit that he got assassinated But it was sunk under six posts of him saying Taylor felled off, dude Yeah, that was a way bigger news story in assassination to everybody knows but it was sunk under six posts of him saying Taylor felled off. Dude, yeah. That was a way bigger news story.

The assassination to everybody knows that Trump doesn't like Taylor Swift anymore. Almost not as like half as many people know about the assassination to. That's why I'm saying it was like it's such like a flop era of like assassination to the guy was also in a video with Gideon. Yeah, I know. Isn't that fucking crazy for real? Yeah, Gideon's just walking around a college campus. I don't know where somewhere north is went to wintery And this guy's just hanging out flyers. He's like join the revolution and Gideon's like go How's it going and he's like fucking with them instantly. He's like, I don't do paper but like I used to serve

Apparently I heard this on the daily this morning apparently he went to Ukraine for a bit to fight. Oh yeah, that's what the guy was like, he was like, Ukraine has the right to defend itself, so that makes sense. You know when the war broke out, there were some like weird American guys that just wanted to go fight, so they'd fly over and then they would like try to join the Ukrainian army This is like uh, what's that guy the poker guy during the Vegas shooting? Do you see that video? No, Dan Blaserian or bills area during the Vegas shooting that happened He was in Vegas for the concert and then he is just a video of him live streaming on IG and he goes up to a Cop he's like, give me a gun. Oh, yeah And the cops like no

Leave obviously and he's like what the fuck? I'm sure fucking hell the cops. Oh, thank God. You're here here At the plane Vegas like he should just have an assault rifle strap Yeah, the laws are crazy there they don't care assault rifle strapped to his back. Yeah, at all times. The laws are crazy there. They don't care. Uh, yeah. I think I saw the Gideon thing and I was like the, the, what is it?

The line. Ooh, so strong. Wow. That's the strongest hands I've ever seen on a man. You do look strong, man. The line of Pokimane to Trump getting assassinated is so short. What? Like, cause Gideon and Pokimane.

What's your Trump assassination number? Yeah? Mine's too much. I'm at Gideon. I'm yeah. Yeah, you're so close. Oh wow Well, I I just I put the balls down and there was only three I was like, dude. He's doing it, but it fell off If you look at the camera, I freaked out I was like did I do it? If you look at the camera, I freaked out. I was like, did I do it? There was a Crimson Blur's birthday this weekend and he had a little gathering at his house. Oh, Crimson Blur, the famous cheater and slay the spire.

This famous slay the spire. And on his girlfriend. Just kidding. Not true. This is a truth podcast. We tell the truth. And by the way, Nick, before this podcast, real quick, was like, apparently Blur is a Slay the Spy record, but like, I don't see like a video of it, like there's edit, like there's full... Let me say what I say, let me say what I said.

I said, I'm gonna Slay the Spy all of a sudden, I started playing recently, it's fun. And everyone my whole life told me, Crimson Blur, he has a Slay the Spy world record. And I'm like, whoa, he's the GOAT, that's awesome. And I was like, I wanna watch Crimson Blur VODs, or not not VODs, but I want to watch his like videos of this game a speedrun But I look up Crimson Blur Slay the Spire and the only things that pop up are like eight hour raw VODs And I was saying how come no one makes highlights of the one of the best players Oh, and then you got this big and then you got to the so I went on to conclude Maybe he's in a Mickey Mouse category that no one gives a fuck about. Did you watch the VODs? I clicked into one VOD and it was like 20 minutes of him saying nothing and I was like I'm not doing this

So you clicked into one? I know it's real cuz I watched it live. I remember watching it live. No, no, I think he got it He got it. I think he got it in Mario 4 star You have to play you have to play with the Xbox controller. He's saying it's a lame cat Mickey Mouse I'm saying Mickey Mouse cat Mouse have no I'm doing what you do Assuming I don't fucking call shit Mickey Mouse again. Sorry. I'm sorry. It's not making it It's a bad connotation that hurts our reputation. That's a hurtful Yeah, nobody's ever died around me ever

Families and if they did it was really close to the place where I live. But it was off site. But it was really distinct over the line from where I live. Especially if they signed up for Disney. What happened at the birthday? We a bunch of people that were at that party were talking about Burning Man because they had gone. And one of these people who wasn't at the party

but had gone was Dewan Shroomed. And apparently there was a melee tournament at Burning Man. Ha! Did he form? And Shroomed won the tournament on, like, flat screen, like, shitty TVs. And the guy who ran the tournament, coincidentally, messaged me today and reached out, and he's like, hey, I have this, like, incredible trophy from Burning Man and it's like this huge structure like built out with like LED

lights and it looks incredible and he's like I have no way to contact Dejuan he won the tournament I think you might be able to get a hold of him like can you help me deliver this to him and I was like oh this is crazy that this tournament that was being discussed Independently like this guy who knows me from like either the yard or smash reached out to get to want his trophy and Through the melee tournament they played in the Star League winner Corporate 40 year old board on life Fucking trophy and give it to start and let's give it to it. Let's give it to Omsa Let's give it to Fogate

Well, no, Zayn Zayn's not going, dude You could have done, you could have lifted a finger to try to get him to go I think I DM'd him, maybe I think I DM'd him, that's strong for me I think he usually gives us, yeah I think, I'm pretty sure I DM'd him, or he come to Star League and he said, I'm trying He said, dude I'm trying

He fought fire with fire He's not trying. He said dude I'm trying. He fought fire with fire. Yeah I don't think he was actually trying but that's what he sent me. He's down 07 to Omsa and he's not coming. Don't bring up fucking records like that. Disrespectful. He's down 07 to Omsa and he's not coming. 07 maybe he's Mitchbed.

Mitchbed? There's still time. 07 what is he? Cuality 4? Disrespecting. What happened to SFAT? SFAT? He's just taking a little break. He's gone to stuff this year. Was that Cordone? He's- he's living his healthy vegan life. Yeah, but he was always doing that.

He's strong as shit. Did uh- did Dewan win like uh, at the tournament, just like a big sheet of acid? Like a thousand tabs of Rick and Morty. It's actually no, just water. The rarest commodity. He played for water. It's like- it's like the future in 20 years. It's actually no just water. Yeah, we play for water. It's like the future in 20 years. And it's still kinda cold. He's just chain grabbing to fucking survive.

Here's some ice for you. Who do we send in? If we need a melee player to not lose a single stock and it randomly generates their opponent. If it was a single stock we don't get water anymore as a society who are we sending it? It's not mango. It's not mango. I don't think it's one

It's not one either because that that person just might be up like slamming up on the sea like it's it's a random who they who they Play against Zane, bro. It's a random. Yeah, it's random Like you just be any guy any guy it would have to be Zane or Omsa I do Josh man for the fun of it because I know he'd make it kind of fun It has to be I can't be on I have to be on sir right as a no because if he gets this fucking armor broken off Stage or some bullshit just died He's so hard to kill for the average person a lot of work to engage with do you think it's harder for arms that a Perry? Someone who's like terrible just no clue what they're doing. There's like no reliable timing of no idea what they're gonna do

Yeah, it's like the the the best swordsman in France doesn't fear the second best swordsman. He fears the worst swordsman I've heard this it's like Leffen no Leffen then He's trolling I think spacey just used to be the guy who would like proudly forsock people in pools and tweet about it Yeah, yeah, he's pretty good. That's funny. Yeah, but yeah, just fucking didn't went through pools without dropping a percent Yeah, fuck everyone. I was like his attempt. It was like how how hard can I beat the people? Zayn or June bug Decays don't SD man. I don't know what it is. Yeah, that's true. It would slay out What if it was one of us? I think you have to send the sheik in yeah

What the pressure he doesn't want the pressure bad you play Falco which is yes in the Falco I've done this before I have it I feel like the the way she plays the game It's actually kind of hard to like really dominate bad players sometimes. Like I if I've played somebody who's basically never played before, I have an easier time fucking them up with like Fox or Falco because they're so overwhelmed by the way those characters play. And like the thinking man's character. But she is just kind of like running around slow. So they put out like random moves and then like when like when Walshy like like to you know

Took me to last stock in one of the games we played yeah, I like to have dubbin Yeah, I forced octet halo guy the Red Bull guy. Yeah took you to last stock L cancel Yeah, okay, yeah Walshy Who he lost to right after Yeah, wall she do who he lost to right after Who the one-handed peach not the one-handed peach? Wall shot so one-handed peach, but took you to last time to be clear. I was already saying you should save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save me and save One-handed peach to defend the nation? One-handed peach was losing stocks! She loses stocks. Wait, does one-handed peach get double water?

Yes. Oh, it's a risk. It's like trivia. Double water points. I like the idea of Dubbin doing it, and then it's the last stock. He's at like 80% with Puff. Something could go wrong, he looks back at us. He looks back at the world. He said, this is for the water.

Winks, whiffs, arrests, a rest dies Dude that'd be fucking fire He's so fucking fire I would love that That's the thing though he farms the clip and then we get so much money that we buy more water You buy the water? It's in his mind and brain The water's holding us We got to talk to them honestly

I fucking went up against this guy with Connor in Brawlhalla who plays with his hands and his feet at the same time. Wait, what? It's a two-feet-two, but it's just one-two. Is that his thing or was he just doing it? That's incredible, actually. Is he beast? He's like really like mid with the feet and his hands are decent, but he lost.

That's like the, I saw this, try moving, you know, when you circle your fingers, try moving them in the opposite direction. It's so hard. Aiden. How? You're just dumb, bro. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You're moving- think about it, you're moving them the same way right now. You're just-

I'm definitely not. This is moving them the same way, that's not the opposite direction. So- Look. You look like a fucking idiot. I was doing it for so long. Ugh. When I looked over, you looked dumb as shit.

It's kinda hard. I had to focus. I don't know what the mechanics are what you look you're moving one towards you Yeah, moving the other one towards you too. You're doing the same thing You're doing them off set. You're doing them off set. You're doing them off set. You're doing them off set. You're doing them off set. You're doing them off set.

I used to be bad at this. I grinded this out. Yeah, I grinded out some weird shit. I used to grind out eyebrow movement too. Don't say I used to be bad at this I grinded it out. I did. You what why? I grinded out this I grinded out whistling I grinded out the pat and the spin. I grinded out eyebrow movement Can't wait. I'm gonna see it dude it Cause of Bobby Scar? You just go like this Woah You just get a rhythm

No The eyebrow movement you mean? No I just wanted to Don't do it This is in college I just wanted to be a master of it I just wanted to be able to like Wow your right side's weak

Yeah my right side's always been weaker Everyone has a weak eyebrow side I can still do the one lip Oh my god You twist your tongue both ways? I tried to actually master the cherry I couldn't get there I can twist it one way not the other Can't do the one with the smorking face. Oh my god, can you twist your tongue both ways? I tried to actually master the cherry, I couldn't get there. I can twist it one way, not the other. I tried to get the cherry for a minute, but I was like, yeah.

You mean tie the cherry in a knot? Because you want it to be a good smooth cherry? Like Drake from Drake and Josh? I want it to be a good smooshing, because if you can twist a cherry, it's from Zoe101. Zoe101? Yeah, it's Zoe101, not Drake and Josh. But they talk about it in Drake and Josh too? It's about Drake and Josh too. So just never fuck that up again. Definitely Drake and Josh. Drake spits out the cherry salmon I think.

Zoey101's the cherry salmon. No, it's Josh tries to do it and he chokes on it. Yeah. And he's trying to be like Drake. In Zoey101 I think Chase does it and that's what makes him hot. It's the episode where Drake is teaching Josh how to pick up girls. Yeah. And then Drake messaged a minor and lives in Spain now.

He goes, I so Riz off. You do the Riz-ing. Yeah, and then Drake messaged a minor and lives in Spain now He goes ISO Rizof You do the Rizzing I do the GAD Wait, can you ISO a Rizof? Yeah, you can ISO. You say ISO. You use ISO ISO is like if you're in a group and you want to fucking have a one-on-one like try to do your thing. Yeah Yeah, I've been hanging out with Jason too much. I can tell. He's born so far after 9-11. It's crazy. Did you guys just learn the term ISO? Like recently? That's from basketball, right? I don't know. That like probably in the past four months, yeah. Oh, I've been saying ISO for my friends in high school all played basketball and they always say ISO like in the dumbest like getting ice cream and stuff. I've been saying saying for so long I just realized no one knows what I'm talking like when you're standing in

Oh, you're all in line at the quiz nose, and it's your turn to pay and you I so the cashier Yeah, you should like that. They were to say it like in those context so recently I Walked in a cutie stream in just my underwear yeah, but my shit look tiny it looked bad No, my meat look little it did I remember I looked down and I was like I'll puff it out Maybe but like I just fucking got I feel like I got like that's not my shits little It's like fine put some toilet paper under the shaft.

That's really freaking important for me. I actually think global warming is a freaking issue. So if you want me undies, because we actually do wear them and they are comfy you get 20% off go to me undies.com

We split it It was like fucking 12 bucks Our friend Ryan didn't get food because he was just fucking around and it was end of food time He's like can I have a slice and we're like we got cash

Yeah, and he's like yeah, I just got a 20 on me. I'm like that'll do that'll fucking do right I remember this you've told this story and every time I'm like, you know what you fucking you've always been Even in trouble and yeah, he fucking narc he narc and we had to fucking stay after and the teacher told us to give Narc is crazy. It is crazy. Did you learn your lesson? No? You know I learned how to hide my hustle I learned how to hustle the right people yeah, did you not like him Ryan? No, I liked Ryan He's chill. I just like bread suit every fucking Friday in high school. Oh god. Yeah, why Friday? Oh, so you think I? Well, you know what every other day is he he's going anti casual Friday that's cool actually

he's like showing up he's like I know you guys are trying to take it easy today I'm trying to work harder we should do the anti casual Friday club and it should be a merch a merchandise company and we it's by the yard it's formal wear? it's formal wear like Conor Dogg VA we make suits we should operate a food truck for three months straight that sounds awesome traveling around America is this because you we should do a food truck for three months straight. That sounds awesome traveling around America It's so hot. We should do a sub-a-thon. You worked one for Jason. I did work one with Jason. Yeah, it was hard I worked mics

We should do a sub-a-thon where we sleep in the same room and we are live the entire time and we're virtually road-tripping from California to Florida Virtually. Yeah, that wouldn't take that long even. This is like Desert Bus for Hope. Do you guys know what that is? Desert Bus was a side game. There was a game that came out I think for the Sega Saturn. Hunter S. Thompson. Hm?

What the fuck are you talking about? Let's do this. It was the Sega Saturn had this like Penn and Teller game like with like eight games in it and they were like anti games. games are supposed to be not fun and stupid. One of them is called Desert Bus, where you literally drive from, I think it's L.A. to like Phoenix, Arizona, in real time on a bus that only goes 45 miles an hour. And it's like, can you look at Uprich Desert Bus?

And the bus, it kind of like you have to steer it because it like it veers. So you have to like pay attention. And I think it's the Mega64 guys, basically they play the game for a whole long stretch and they raise money for a cause, I think it's like children's cancer. So this is a tried and true, Hey, it's us.

What do you call it? You're showing us a picture of us, I don't know if you know that. Okay, there it is. Yeah, this is desert bus. I feel like there's gotta be speed runs of this for sure. This looks awesome. Yeah, and it's real showing us a picture of us, I don't know if you know that. Okay, there it is. Yeah, this is Desert Bus. I feel like there's gotta be speedruns of this for sure. This looks awesome. Yeah, and it's real time, like you're really, it's the exact, or it's the approximate distance

of going from LA to Phoenix or whatever. Do you have the software gas? Uh, I think so, I can't remember. Cause he's on E right now, I'm seeing that. Damn, you have to fucking fight this shit a lot. Yeah, it veers, so you really have to pay attention. You can also crash the bus which resets the odometer. This is like they have a Mario Kart custom track that is just this like single lane hour two hour long stretch and some people will like psychotically speed run it. But because

of the wheelieing in the game you have to wheelie and then it runs out after a few seconds and then you have to re-wheelie and time it, right? So people speed run it. So it means holding A and spamming the wheelie button for like 90 minutes. Oh my God. And then if your RNG is good, maybe you beat the record, like if the gaps between your wheelie inputs are enough.

That's gross. Yeah, and the map is not even textured, it's just a white empty landscape and you just have to sit there And watch funky Kong and listen to funky Kong scream Sometimes like I love speedrunning, but I think sometimes maybe it's just bad. Yeah, dude. It's like that yugioh game I think about this whole lot. Well. Yeah, well I think about it from the standpoint of like I think about this whole lot. Yeah, wow. I think about it from the standpoint of like,

we love it, we love watching it, but for the person, they're dumping all of this time into a thing and they get nothing back on. Yeah, and there's- And it's beautiful for that reason, because it means that you really want it and love it for wanting it and nothing else. What do you think of-

But then after, you're left with nothing. No life skills really, no like transferable career I think you have some life skills in the like the grinding to get good yeah that's a transferable life skill that's like a focus thing but but yeah I mean certainly like you know 5,000 hours of Mario does not net you much no outside of you know I mean it's like a you're know. I mean, it's like you're in. Oh, I'm sorry. That's gross. You're in like a prison.

Like there is a there's a video of this guy beating the Tetris, like final Grandmaster challenge where all the blocks go invisible. And he's just like crying at the end. And because it's this amazing accomplishment that he's like grinded for his whole life, basically. And he's and he's he's just his friends in the room and he's Like crying in his friends arms. He's like I'm free. I'm finally free becoming sky news build What does that mean the lady from Sky News? Yeah blue scooty got the

And we're like we're like, what's the point maybe go outside? Yeah Right now it's more of we we, like we're gamers, right? We understand it and we think it's hype, but there is truly this, it's like when pro gamers stop being programmers, right? What are they supposed to do? The only thing that they've been doing up to that point that is valuable is being watched, right? Unless they have an engineering degree like SVG. I think you can kind of say this about anything though, right? It depends if anything yields some sort of retirement I think if you if you let's say you go pro in the NFL and then

retire ignoring how much money you have you could become a caster you could you have so many career paths people give a fuck about you in the public eye you can use that to your advantage for the rest of your life mm-hmm a speedrunner doesn't have that but that also makes it way cooler does the statistical I'm saying yeah I agree with that does the chance of that reality Mm-hmm a speedrunner doesn't have that but that also makes it way cooler. Does the statistical? I agree with that does the chance of that reality like influence your take on it at all also also I think a more apt comparison might be something is like some people get really into like drawing or painting or reading and Like you could dump so many hours into those activities, but you're very unlikely to be criticized for it Yeah, I think that's true.

We were playing chess. I think people should be more criticized for reading. I'm not trying to discourage reading. I think that those things are less commonly compared to speed running, operating obsessive hours of your life. Speed runners will play for 14 hours a day, and then go to bed, wake up, and do it again.

I feel like an artist, some artists are, but a lot our artists are like hobbyists who like maybe they're really obsessed with Something they're doing it, but it's not I don't think it's the same thing like usually you also have a job I think drawing is also a skill that you're improving that it's like Like cool. It's like a fun hobby. It's like a good. Yes. I think all these things are cool I just think it's sad. Yeah, I see what you're doing. I'm with you on reading There's two things there's two things that work here one One is a cultural context of what are we willing to accept as something that's worth pursuing a lot of times drawing and painting It's like that thing is just like classically have been a part of human society

That's why I think chess is a good example because functionally now, right? Yes, I think I think the best example I can think of because it's literally a video game now. Yeah. It didn't used to be a video game. But now this thing that has like high praise and is a very like lauded activity historically to be like good at and to pursue has been like gamified in the same way a video game is now.

Not only is it gamified, it's also like solved. You know what I mean? So it's like, we're just playing a worse version of chess. Yeah, we're trying to approach to what robots can do. But you would be unlikely to be criticized for like dumping the same amount of hours into chess as Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. There is an elegance ascribed to chess

that we have accepted in the past, like, a thousand years. And I think that lens, like, set by, like, society or the culture, like, is kind of applied to everything. It is the rare game that there is a even remote chance of you turning it into some, like, profitable endeavor. The difference is that, so, when compared to speedrunning, which, like, Mario 64 speedrunning is beautiful and hype, right? Yeah, but at the end of the day what's interesting about speedrunning is it is a game you kind of made up in your head

Yeah in the in the closet when you were you know locked in there from when your parents locked you in there And you were trying to make up cool games Your mom logs in the closet cuz you've been bad suck in there for like four hours cool games. Right. You know I'm tired. You know I'm tired. You know I'm tired. Okay. Your mom logs you in the closet because you've been bad. You suck in there for a while. Yeah, you suck in there for like four hours. With the cat food.

Five hours. And the cat food's there. Because you weren't good enough for dog food this week. But you ate all of it so you don't have anything else to do. You ate more cat food. It's lonely in there. Out it. Fresh out.

But basically, yeah, we're taking a system that already existed, which is a game, and then we're just applying these arbitrary rules of time to beat it the fastest and the arbitrate like the layers of Arbitrariness that go through make it more and more cringe to a normal person like yeah, I can speedrun commander keen Yeah in 30 minutes, and it's like do you think speed running it? Do you think speed running is more cringe than competing in a video game then like in a traditional like I don't I don't think either Are necessarily cringe, but if we're talking about the context of what a normie thinks, I think yeah. They'd think speedrunning is more...

I think it's easier to say, yo, this guy's the best Street Fighter player. I think there's an element missing here between the comparison chess of like... The average person who's obsessed with chess is just like, has a dopamine addiction and is like, is just queuing a game that's easy to queue over and over again. They like winning when they win it feels good and they lose feels bad. But they're not, there's no, there's no like end goal of...

What are you doing? Oh, bro, I like how it looked. Oh, okay. Right. I thought you were... Just greening out. But there's no end goal of like attention like there is with streaming or getting a world record or any of that. Whereas if you're a chess pro, maybe you could say there is. You want to become the best in the world.

You either want the achievement or the recognition or whatever. With a streamer, I feel like it's a little bit... I still think it's cool, but it's more sad that it's like... Even at the end, even if you get all the attention, you get nothing. Are you quitting speedrunning to streaming? Like you're saying they're kind of one in the same because presumably you're streaming No, because I think streamer the the appeal of a variety streamer has a higher ceiling Generally for more people like I think it's actually a viable career path for most people will fail and most people won't get there

But like when you if you do get there, there's not many speed runners I would say that exists in the world that aren't actually just variety streamers who are speedrunning for fun right now, that are like making a lifelong career out of it. No, I think there's a fuck, well it's different. It's just speedrunners become variety creators. Yeah, they kinda have to. Some people start speedrunning,

I started speedrunning. Yeah, I'm talking about speedrunning in a vacuum. But you're, so I think- Yeah, but it's never in a vacuum. Like even really, really phenomenal speedrunners, like Batora, usually switch a variety at some point or like Liam Are there like are there like more than like 15 people who have done this? Yeah, they're like a big quantity people who have like gone from being just hard question honors to like definitely people with lifelong

People who like develop their niche community stream Some game and then a lot to start there like, you know, technically I started just speed running. That was the only thing I did for probably you famously said that's the category that you can be found in rather than like that's all I did. But I think your value what you're trying to say is like in this example, you have you're measuring the the viability of all these things based on what you do, what you are able to do after spending so much time doing the one thing. What makes me not, I used to like look at streaming a lot more negatively. I think what makes me look at it is a really cool thing. It's like a way for us to protect those people and like, Hey, I can't spend my life doing

this, but I think it's really, I wish someone would cause I want to to watch them do it And streaming is a way to give that person like just enough Just enough to be able to make it worth it Yeah, and it like protects something we care about which I was what I think is cool about it I just think it's sad that most of those people like They face almost no reward at the end most the time. It's an all-in It's an all-in on something an all in on something with time, which is so hard to see when you're in your like 20s

or teens or whatever. I think the question I'm getting at, because I agree with you, is something I've been thinking about a lot lately is like what my time is spent on and like what that means to me and whether it's good or bad. And something I was thinking about a lot

is like last year, I was playing a lot of Valorant. And I'm actually happy that I spent that time. And I was thinking about something that was like, I'm playing basketball a good amount right now. And like mentally, basketball has like replaced the part in my brain right now that like Valorant was fulfilling.

It was like, this is the same like mental stimulation that I want and I'm putting time into playing basketball and that will ultimately be like pretty fruitless. There is the added like benefit of like, I'm doing something physical and there's exercise and that will benefit me in some way, but there's no like, there's nothing actually beyond that, which is like this externality that I don't really factor in.

That's better about spending my time on basketball and trying to get better and trying to get better at basketball. The social element is a big plus. I think it's just so many. I think for the average person, like anything you devote time to outside of anything you devote time to is sort of you can view in the same sort of like nihilistic way. Yeah, yeah.

The underlying question is if we are spending our time on something, let's say we speedrun for 10 years of our life and then we're done. And it's like, okay, what if you could retire anyway, because you have $6,000 million? Yeah, you could just speedrun still. Like we're kind of dancing on the idea, like you said, of like nihilism and spending our time just because it doesn't result in being rich later because you didn't build the skill. It's like, well, I suppose to enjoy the ride part of me.

Part of me looks at these things. And when somebody decides to stream or not stream speed run a really niche game, I feel that part of me rise up that is like critical of like wow what a fucking wasted time And I thought about like well, I'm trying to learn piano right now And it's like I think though like you're like you're working a full day. You're going to get lunch. You're playing basketball You play a video game and then you play piano for like an hour and a half Yeah, a speedrunner is is playing all that time is one thing. Is that a lot of the time?

Yeah. Most speed runners are people with regular jobs who do it as a hobby. Of course they have. You have to have a job. You have to be alive. But I'm saying I'm saying all the rest of the time, if you want to be good at that thing, is spent on that thing for sure. I think a good show. But I think it's it's it's it's too blank. If you were if you were like not not working and not doing all this stuff and just playing basketball all day,

I'd view it very similarly. Yeah, yeah, okay, that makes sense to me. But you're not. Yeah. So I think it's very different. Oh, so this feeling goes away if this person has a hold on their life. Like if they, you can do whatever you want

with your free time and it doesn't matter if it's productive or not. My view here on speedrunning is that it? Requires so much of you to be significant in it unless you choose cheese I mean yeah, I mean on runs or I think I I disagree on the the philosophy of that because I think there's something Romantic in the self-destruction. It's like this is this person has decided to just run down their life They say fuck it to 14 hours a day playing a clear Feel like one of those TLC shows, but instead of like my sister and me 600 pounds It's you speedrunning like NBA Jam

Games where you have to go all in that fucking crazy is actually pretty small A lot of games where you have to go all in that fucking crazy is actually pretty small Well, the biggest one this leads this leads this is a thought a question I had do you think it's lame because I think there there are so many games that have existed right and the reality is most Of these in most games do not have like this big competitive speed running Yeah, most are easy to get a world record. So what people will do is they'll find niche games for the sake of having a world record It's something that's stupid What people will do is they'll find niche games for the sake of having a world record in something. Yeah, that's stupid. That's lame, yes.

No, it's not lame. Our good friend Mike Bunther has, I believe, third in Wiz and Liz. I will have no slander. It is no longer lame, but it's funny. Yes, I agree. I agree. But I think it's fine if you just like a niche game

and then you want to run that niche game you like. No, I think it's fine if you just like a niche game and then you want to run that No, I think that's that that's fine I think intentionally seeking out a niche game that you have no connection to farm You're scrolling through the fucking categories to unless it's like well, I did this with fall guys I scrolled through the fall guys speedrun page. Yeah, and I found out that nobody has the five wins record No one is submitted on speedrun.com. It was a category. Wow. So I was like, I will go live and I will get this record. I didn't win one game over the course of four hours. So it didn't pan out. This is how I felt. You know when you read Guinness World Book of World Records as

a kid and it's just some fucking convoluted record that takes up half a page. It's like most dicks beat off with Mickey Mouse gloves. And it like oh wow and the record's like 12 cause like nobody's actually beating dicks off with Mickey Mouse gloves This was a Paramore music video, ain't it fun? Oh and they just set a bunch of arbitrary world records, which was funny Well that's also fucking rigged to be fair

The whole Guinness thing, yeah But what were you saying earlier about uh, oh yeah our friend Miles, our good friend of the show What were you saying earlier about... Jerking off people and picking off scuffs. Oh yeah, our friend Miles, our good friend of the show. Yeah, he's a world record in Jackie Chan Stuntmaster. And it was just him and another guy from Brazil. I was world record holder in Mario Party.

You were? What was your category? Like what is the record? Mario Party True Story, right? All minigames? All minigame coasters. I will...no, no, that one from Mario Party 2. I'm talking about the new one. The new, new shit.

Yeah, I got the world record for that one, too. And then when he talks about gaming, being a god gamer in his videos, he always talks about having a world record. I do have a world record. But I think about Miles, because Miles, like he was in Australia and he just speed running Jackie Chan. And it's like crazy. And it's not like he was trying to farm a record. He just found something that, like you were saying, occupied the space in his mind.

COVID times different too. I got all my Mario Party records removed because they were emulator. No way. You know tacos. That's bullshit. That was sad. I mean, it's quicker.

Dude, I remember what it took. Because I never thought about the validity of the Guinness Book of World Records. I'm like, yes, that's the world records are kept. It's a hard cover. It's in the library. And then I got my gamer edition 2008 or 2009, and they put a Mario, it's like a Mario Kart speed run. Oh, Mario Kart?

Mario Kart, yeah. Oh, this is Mario Party 4. And it's SNES Ghost Valley 2 and Mario Kart Wii, and the time that they have for the world record, I'm like, dude, my time's better than that time. Yeah, I smoke, bro. And then my view of this institution just crumbled. I was like, that means better than that time. Yeah, I saw and then my like view of this institution Just like crumbled. I was like that means they could all be fake

Mario Mario Party 4 is mini game Mario medley has a speedrun world record and for Guinness I think no no it's a no yeah It's guess and me and Ludwig have like beaten that time every time we played the game. It's like seeing your dad cry You're like something's wrong Everything's broken down. Man. What do you... He likes it. Look, I got him a gift he likes.

Score one point for Gryffindor. I guess all is forgiven. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, actually, I got love bombs. Boom. Don't fucking... With the Mickey hat is so good. I don't like it.

I found a new speedrun game that's more popular than Mario Kart. It's this Russian game called Schoolboy Runaway. Oh yeah. This is such a dark game. This game's it's more popular than Mario Kart it's this Russian game called schoolboy runaway oh yeah this is such a dark game this game is fire it's crazy dude it's crazy most popular game in Russia Ukraine Bulgaria I think Serbia there's more Russians playing this than Counter-Strike yeah well it's mobile oh yeah okay that checks out I think it's 10 million plus now that checks out oh my god it's a million plus now. Oh my god. It's a huge game. It's massive It's like what's the plot? Dude, it's the plot is you are a Russian schoolboy and your parents want you to study and you study by standing on your bed

and if you're not on your bed and But you were sorry you really want to go hang out with your friend outside and so you to get outside you have to basically Collect some items to like either build a ladder To get on the roof to jump over your fence or get the code for the gate to open it But if your parents catch you outside of your room They slap you and then bring you back and then make you do a punishment like squats and they catch you three times They beat you with a belt Dude, oh my god

Didn't you tell us that you you found a convoluted way to jump out from the roof and then you got beat with a belt? I well, yeah, I built a ladder up to my roof and then use that. And then I jumped over. But as I jumped, my mom grabbed me, pulled me back, slapped me. And then my dad beat me with a belt. So it's tough. It's a tough game.

Look, man, I played 12 hours in a row. Jack Jack's adventure on that plane. I know how it's tough. It's a tough game. Look man. I played 12 hours in a row Jack Jack's adventure on that plane I yeah, I know how I mean I know how it be this is like What's the Willem Dafoe game? Was it 12? Wasn't it? Oh? 12 minutes 12 minutes. Oh, yeah, I'm watching You play this game and like just repeatedly get murdered the reason was dumb as fuck that he didn't beat it I was so mad. It was like the way it was ported to switch there was like a part of the game where you I don't want to spoil it

But there's like like a thing you need to see that was cut off on the bottom of the screen And so I just never saw it and the only way I got through the game was we got to a point We were so desperate. We were just clicking around randomly and we happened to look at off-screen That's stupid. It was very stupid. He's playing with even yeah his little brother. He's a gamer We couldn't fuck do she I was like, okay, we can't do it together. It's a hard fucking day today. It's his fucking birthday today That little piece is 21. He's 21. I thought 21st was last time Yeah, oh, he's crazy, bro. Hmm born in oh three. Yeah, that's crazy. He doesn't remember 9-eleven He's a posty posty not around houses head right off his shoulders. Yes, sir. You could

I don't think you're Something but I'd hit him in the head. I'll kick him in the damn skull. Yeah, he just got back He was it he's in Vietnam right now. What's the fight? It's still going on annoying hot dude Okay, it's fucked up. What's he doing? He's been texting me. Fighting, the good fight.

What the hell? What a fucking brave soldier. No, he's just with his friend. It's like his first big trip with a friend. He's in Vietnam with like a friend from college. And he went to the north. Is he like you? Uh, in terms of traveling?

Yorubu. I don't know. Come on man, you know what I mean. Dear Yorubu. Does he need to seek other parts of the world to feel whole? No. Does he need to leave? I don't think so.

Does he shrivel and die inside if he doesn't leave the state line? No. Does he use a big bowl for all his meals? Does he learn Swedish even though they speak English there fluently? No. Is he hard of hearing? Nay. No.

He's like, what'd you say? Does his penis look like an earthworm that's eaten too much? Haven't seen it in a while. Uncut though. Been a while. It's weird if they haven't seen it in a while. Are any of them cut? Did they decide to switch it up?

Are there any brothers? No, we're all uncut. Are you sure? Are you sure he's still playing the last brother like this one? They're like, fuck it. Yeah, fuck it. Well, fuck it. Well we'll try. Yeah. Haha.

It's like A, B testing the thumbnail. Fine, I'll speedrun a game. You wanna speedrun a game? Yeah, what did I play? Mario 64 is the game show's play. Deadass Psychonauts. Oh, dude. There you go.

Is this a good one? One of the most mad I've ever been was I got really into the Psychonauts speedrun for a while. This is back in Pomona. And there's this trick, there's a speedrun trick in that game where you like take one you have to like you bounce on it And you go and you like fly really far And I was trying it for hours. I couldn't do it. I'm like damn. It's a fucking hard speedrun turns out I'm playing on console capped at 30 FPS. The trick is pretty impossible. Yo on 30 FPS. You have to play on Steam I said I wasted so much time. He's getting owned by console ports of games

Yeah, bro. Halo on console. Oh I didn't realize it's like 15 FPS. Yeah, that's crazy. It's awful. That's how it's always been. I guess Yeah, I didn't know no better. Hi, that's what I'm real But then when you go over to monover to you're like this feels awesome does it like compared to halo? Oh, yeah, feels a bit buttery.'s like what was this ass you sprint like 60 FPS Wow yeah it feels awesome I'm a halo 3 hater I think why did cuz everyone's like it's the best halo but I actually think they're just old what do you think is the best halo then reach I don't think you're telling the truth to

me now right now I think that yeah I think reach is just halo 3 but they add his sprint uh-huh I wonder if you'd like page on console oh I don't know yeah maybe on console it's worse I thought it was two you're just getting that's what boomers say boomers will tell you two or three hmm I'll tell you it's halo reach and I like it I won't I don't won't mince my words no halo one was so funny cuz it was you the you spawn in with the machine gun and then the pistol and the pistol Was so good, and it was just this desert eagle fucking with a zoom so every you just switch your pistol right away Just and that was the game is very fun I played I played Halo 1 multiplayer on like dude my dad had this ancient laptop that could be it was like it was like

10 FPS I fire up blood Gulch and I'm like I'm gaming dude on a touchpad I didn't care oh how does that how does that how do you it's how do you play on a computer if it's a console game it wasn't you know what oh it's on PC I had it I had it I only had it on PC because my older brother but I had it too it reminds I think back at those times when like cuz I gave me is so accessible and easy now but I think back at those times when like, because gaming is so accessible and easy now, but I think back when I was like 14, dude, I would do anything just to get a whiff of some gaming.

Bro, you're fucking ancient. I am ancient. But like, I think about that, right? Like, I just wanted to play a game so bad, I would play 10 FPS Blood Gulch. I think that that era where like PC like everything was developing so fast So so like the average computer at home that your parents had just was not built to run like any video game So you just had to tough it out because that's what I did I played Lego racers 2 on like 10 FPS. Yeah, cuz it was just that's all you had

I play Warcraft 3 Dota and the computer couldn't load the map very fast So it take like four minutes to load the game for everyone. Most people would leave So every time I just like hoping everyone would stay so I could play a full game of Dota My friends fucking hated me because I had to boot up I had like an outdated old MacBook that I would Boot camp Windows on to run League of Legends because League wasn't on Mac yet. That's why I never played League is because I had a Mac.

And and I fucking try and I would play with them but the loading screen would take so long and it was it was so obviously because of me and and we're five stacking. Every time like damn who is this? I'm saying every time like damn who is this? We had this thing where it would take so long that it would just eventually would boot everybody else into the game and Then you would be like 30 seconds behind everybody. Oh my god Yeah, it was It's I I mean, it's like another old man yelling at cloud I'm not yelling at cloud though cuz I'm like happy that all the kids have games But yeah, man, not only do they have games of the greatest games of all time

They have the greatest games of all time right at their fucking fingertips and most of them are free to play Yeah, and all of them are on mobile too now run it we were I've told before but it's kind of can't do a different thing. But me and Aaron Used to when we were in high school We used to go to GameStop and go to the $2 bin and any game that said multiplayer, we'd buy it and take it home and play. And we did that with Shawn White Snowboarding.

And this is when we figured out we could stun lock people in lobbies and they couldn't leave if you hit them with snowballs over and over again. And so we did that for hours. And there's only one lobby in that game. So you can't go anywhere, we know your spawn. Every time you come back, you're locked.

But we've been doing PSL and Aaron finally came to one. He logged back into like his original Xbox account and we were in the same. We're in the same clan back in the day. Don't worry about we have the same gamer tag and we're like playing model for two. We're like wearing the clan like name and everything. And I was like, I'm it's full circle. Like I'm back where I was. And how should I feel about that? I don't know where I was like, should I feel like where I was and how should I feel about that?

I don't know where I was like should I feel like I haven't moved or should I feel like this is a beautiful Is it an old operation or an homage to my just a man? Who's who's who's attached emotionally do the context you're raised in you'll never escape it. Mmm. It's good though Good good the drop 50 you just have to bring the good parts. You have to bring the good parts and you leave. You have to leave the demons behind the day. Because once you step into one of those old games, you feel the demons rise up. They're so powerful because I like get into a weird spot in Mono for two

that no one's seen. And like we were playing headquarters last night. I'm like, oh, the spot forgot. I know this spot. No one knows the spot. Cool. I'll just crawl into it. And everyone's like, why isn't it capping? All this value. This happens with like, also like legacy series, like for instance Tekken. I never

played a Tekken game besides like Casually, right? But like you go back to like Tekken 4 and the characters are doing the same shit. So you could be a guy who like casually played Tekken for the past 20 years, boot up Tekken 8, hit a couple inputs, you're like, ah, still does the same shit.

And you're kind of like, you still get a taste of the old country. I think that's really, really good. Yeah. When you like, I think that's part of why, I don't know, like I like when games don't change too much over time because you can just like pick up a game way later and it feels like, whoa, it's like, I still have all this. Yeah, it still applies.

I didn't lose all that time. That's probably the worst part about League right now is every game. I'm booting into There's like two or three guys that I've never seen in my fucking life I don't know their names and then they all have skins that make them look totally different So even game to game if somebody's playing the same guy, I don't know it You're like that guy's wearing a beach outfit And I think he's the same as last time, but I'm not sure. There are so many skins I have every single one cuz I got like this riot account. No fucking way you have the riot deep web account. Yeah

They give them everything dude. You don't even have that for fun. Do you have all the juicer skins? No, I don't have for League. Yeah, I have all the juicer skins. You have like packs, Twisted Fate? I have everything bro You wouldn't be able to do this, but if you you could sell it what do you think it would sell for I believe the price of all the league skins is Want to say like $20,000 you can't just buy all them. Can you know? There's value to some that yeah Collecting the collecting of all of its probably worth like a premium of a hundred percent something maybe so like maybe 40k Wow, it just can't base model rav4 for dude when you stop streaming

Cash that I don't think you could sell it. Why you could sell anything you want because this is America Yeah, but you're out I'd be breaking it though I have an account that has all the the crazy skins You can't buy like the fucking King Ramis and Alistar, like these skins that existed by like, if you bought the physical beta of the game in 2009, you got this skin. I don't know how this account got them, but I bought this account for 500 bucks.

Whoa, you bought a collector's account. So I don't have as many, he has like every skin in the game, including all the ones you can buy, but I have all the secret ones that you can't buy. And that was 500 bucks. Did you seek it out? Yeah, because it was something that I always wanted to do when I was a kid. It was kind of like indulging in the CS skin stuff.

For a bit. Yeah, you like skins, we know that. You like digital. I like digital. And I'm a digital nomad. Big crypto guy. You're a digital nomad, you go to Burning Man. Cash is going to be dead soon. Oh my god, I got into a car wreck today. Big crypto guy. You're a digital nomad, you go to Burning Man. We're, we're, we're, Cash is gonna be dead soon. Oh my god, I got into a car wreck today.

What? What? When? Semper Fi. Like on the way here? Uh, no, I was taking an Uber to get my truck cause I left it at Jason's place so that's why I picked him up, that's why I was late today. And then I'm in the Uber and I'm dropped off on a side street that didn't

I didn't recognize, he's like, is this it? I was like I was like I think so and he's like yeah, it's a number I'm like okay Yeah And then I open the door and then a car drives by and I open the door and I hit the mirror of the car That drives by oh, and I fuck and I open it goes Fuck dude. They're trying to get you and how are you opening the door into a traffic? How are you parked? He's double parked on a street You're getting out of the left side of the car. I'm getting out the left. I saw behind the driver

Yeah, and I and I and I open and I open it hits it I'm like fuck and then he checks out the door the door looks fine. He walks over I close the door I realize it is flared out. I'm like book So I start pushing it in while he's talking to the driver. Dude. It pushes it nice. It pushes it nice? It pushes it nice.

I mean, you gotta push it then. And so then I go walk over, he's talking, the lady's really cool about it, she's like, yeah, I'm just gonna go to this fix right now, I'll just charge you whatever the people charge me at the place that I get a fix, we only go through insurance. He's like, he's like, dope swag. And then he goes over to the car, he pushes it, he's like, yeah, it looks good actually. I'm like, yeah, true. But her mirror shattered. Yeah. From just the force of it. Dude, you were, this pushes it, he's like, ah, it looks good actually. I'm like, yeah, true. And, but her mirror shattered. Yeah.

From just the force of it. Dude, you were, this is all to get your truck, right? Yeah. Dude, I broke my tail light trying to move my car. The truck is cursed. To get his, to jump his truck. The truck is cursed. There's literally tail light pieces

in the fucking parking lot right now. And I fucking, I gave the dude 400 cash. That's what I had on me. Cash is king. I was like, cash is king. Never forget that. And it forget that and it took a hundred back because that's for the lesson. Yeah Yeah But yeah, and then well, you know what made it feel better is when I drove the truck here You know those cool dudes who aren't too far away fucking cool dudes. Yeah

They're in the chair they saw my truck they're like nice They cheesed big time. I was like, I was like, yeah, yes, sir. Fucking go. Dude, did you steal pop attacks from phantom attacks? Yeah. Yeah. I didn't know that. Really? Yeah until I found out about Phantom attacks. Oh, yeah. No, it's yeah Very very blatantly stole. I thought you I thought you were just- we really just stand on the shoulders of giants. Amen Well, that's a rude thing to call What calling Phantom of Giants rude is he I don't know what about big is he is he short he is

I don't want to get into it right now So hold that I so Mickey Riz What's he hiding under them damn dude Geo guess the World Cup was fire I watched the final it was so good I watched the finals sick. How does it how this shit work? The Geo guess your World Cup or the hands? Who in the middle Geo guess your World Cup Michael Jackson? Geo guess your World Cup. What's up, brother? But it's Mickey Geo guessessr World Cup, what's up brother, but it's Mickey. The GeoGuessr World Cup is, it's like best of five and it's moving, not moving, moving, not moving, no moving, panning or zooming.

Whoa. Which is like you just look at a still image and then you just guess where it is on the map and if you're closer you get points, like you damage the other opponent, you know? First one to zero points loses. To this world, who is Rainbow? Is he kind of like a levy? Like he wouldn't be in the finals, but he knows a lot and he'd be commentating?

Yeah, he's like a levy. He's like the most famous GeoGuessr player, and honestly, he could be the best, I think, in the world, or like very close to, because there's been times where he's guest commentating and the players haven't known, but he also just doesn't have as many reps in GeoGuessr and the reps he does do is like Half a second upside down black and white. Which is not relevant to do competitive. Yes

Mickey Mouse category Mickey Mouse is where the money is but but but he could do the main category He just it's just you're right it in the reward for that. It's not as big as the Mickey Mouse I'm sure blur could be the main category for slaves fire, but instead he does like you know It's all against viewers in his category proven wrong on this so fast Become each other We are all complicit in this. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I'm old, I'm old, I'm low key defending board. Wow, we're all on board. Become each other, become each other. I'm a blur?
