You know, Kelby said the nicest thing he ever said to me today.
Yeah, what is that?
He said, because he was talking about, I've been playing league, me and Nick,
and we've been crashing out, I've been crashing out like fucking crazy.
Nick has slight crash outs, but they are crashouts.
but they are crash house on the less.
I go through his on band forms.
I don't think he knows how to access them
because I just like to look at them.
I don't deny or accept.
He didn't even know those forms.
Yeah,
but I look at them
and I can see what the person said.
And it's literally just like LOL 2,000 gold
and no back or something like that.
It's very fun.
It's like just, you know,
being an asshole about how he's playing
and I'm like, ooh, Nick banned that.
I like that.
I go through yours and it's like 10 people
and all they've typed is a 07.
Or are you like, what's your favorite song?
Ah, no.
I explain myself now.
I have this new air.
Oh my God.
I'm going to talk about my personal journey of emotions
through the lens of the video game
without talking about the video game specifically.
Are we okay with that audience?
Okay, check box yes if you say yes.
All right.
So I've been in a great mindset lately
where I give people like Aiden does the benefit of the doubt.
I swear to God.
I'm looking at the world through,
like how like a fan would. I'm speaking less. I'm listening more. You know all the
shits that's been happening in the world? I don't tweet anymore. I just type it out on my
phone. Don't tweet it out. And I'm like, this is so much less stressful.
Tylenol-Mexing. I'm Tylenol-Mexing. Yeah, yeah, I walk on my toes. So what? And I'm like,
this is, this is such an interesting, like, new perspective for me that's being consistent.
This is awesome. It was someone, because I was watching slime all day yesterday.
and someone
I was watching both of you guys
but someone's on the TV
and someone goes in China
I get the TV I literally
I said that's a TV choice
I said that's the TV stream
mine's the cell phone in the pocket
you can listen to some of the audio
someone pops in chat and they say
I love Yard D&D
I listen to every episode
I just have a question
I wonder why you guys are rolling
with digital dice instead of physical ones
this is where you did chime in
I remember that and and slime goes
not the Todd. Appreciate it. Not the time. Just not going to answer that.
No, here's what I said. And it's very similar, but I said...
You have a large boogie. I have to point it out. Oh, thank you. Okay, Archie censor that.
Wipe it on the chair. Wipe it on the chair. I'm going to wipe it on my leg.
It's just, it's wet boogie. It's not... Yeah, that's grosser. Yeah, I think it makes me feel
worse because he has like a fabric chair and not a metal one. I didn't. I didn't do it.
I want to know. I am very sweet. I want to do it, but I'm trying to pick a thing I can do it with. See, you have to pick other countries. Whoa, Brandon brand. Deodorant wipes. So yeah. So anyway, what I said was, hey, man, that's really awesome. I'm having the worst day of League of all time that I could ever experience. I don't really want to talk about whether or not we do that. But if you come and find me and catch me on a day where I'm not feeling like this, I will sit and I will talk to you about D&D. Do you know this guy replied?
Okay, okay, I get it.
No, he said, no problem.
Yeah, and I was like, I was like, all you got to do is explain your thoughts.
You explain your thoughts, everything will be okay.
You're such a sweet boy.
And that's the part of me that is being more explicative of like, okay, maybe I'm pissy,
but I'm going to sit with you and be like, and you know what I say a lot?
It's not your fault.
It's not your fault.
You don't know that I'm upset right now, and that's okay, and it's not your fault.
I've been, I, and then they just say my bad, and I'm like, all right.
I have been with you.
I think it's funny, though, is that the same.
way you remember your own like highlights is like the same way you think like
everyone in league is toxic because of the three guys in chat because there is a
mountain of crash outs under that one moment under that one moment of clarity
it's everyone was there I mean this is a good question right if we if we fully
explain are the reasons behind our emotions does it absolve us from displaying them
Oh my God, can I do your on band forms today?
They're, I do them.
I have dessert after the stream and I do them.
Why don't you leave them for a day and let him do it?
Wait, wait, wait, but can, just let dub and, oh, yeah.
Oh, sure, sure, sure, yeah.
Just let me eat today.
You could have the dessert.
You could have.
So you're going to play league today.
And then I want to eat your dessert after.
And I get to choose.
Dude, you're, you're edging.
So it's that most better when you, when you beat off at night.
Dude, I almost, he's like, he's separating the Oreo.
He's separating the Oreo.
And then he just leaves a pile of cream for after.
Creams later.
And he just fuck the creams.
He takes a spook.
Just the cookie right now.
And I bet some days he goes through more Oreos than he should because he's being bad because he's like, oh, I'll have more cream later.
Okay.
I don't mean, I had a salad yesterday.
I do like the idea of being like so upset and that, but you're, you're banning people with the intention of giving yourself dessert later.
I don't think you're doing that, but the idea of like, is like, I'm going to.
I think you are. I think you slow stroke it when you read the apologies in the unband forms.
Sometimes I tell them if you clutch the unband form, welcome back. I literally say this is your chance and sometimes like you're real fucking mean.
Sometimes they talk about the shit that they know about me in my personal life that like I'd rather not talk about as a way to hurt me.
There was a guy. I don't remember what he said. Maybe you will. He said something on the lines of like, yo bro, you ever. You ever.
in your lane homie and then you band him and you're like you don't talk like that in real life
and then you pause and you're like maybe you do no there was a guy there was a guy who was
just talking like I know I was like you don't talk like that real life what I often say
if someone is mad I love how this is so fun to talk about for you guys I
I can talk about it all day this is my dessert because sometimes dessert in the
morning dessert for breakfast we could the day through the psychology we all
of Anthony Bruno
we aren't watching
like me and Yingo
we're not watching
us on the TV
necessarily for the
top lane gameplay
I don't know if this
is breaking news
but I understand
well Kelby like I said
he said the
because he's like
okay slime
so when you
lose a fight in top lane
and then you run
right back to lane
and fight again
are you tilted
do you think that's good
and I'm like
okay a rude question to ask
I just woke up
he's like right before we do the pot
and and he's like
but I told them I was like because I was like
sometimes man my champ wins those fights
I'm not just I am tilted
but it's like I'm taking a calculated fucking
coin flip that is weighted toward there
and I'm going for it he's like oh so you're
not just like running it down it's like no I'm not running it
down it looks like that but sometimes
I win those and it's like calculating my coin flip
damn still 50 50 let's run it
it's called the weighted coin flip and they're real
anyway so but you know
you know in like in the phantom menace
when when quigons like turn
to move the dice
with the forest
he's like
he thinks he's doing that
yeah it's just a guy
doing this
at fucking Vegas
no you know what it is
it's quite on trying
to do a mind trick
on Wado who died
the Tridarian
who is you cannot do
Jedi mind tricks
on a Tridarian
yeah you can't
and the top plane
is Wado
and you keep thinking
one time
your Jedi Mind Trick will work
because it's worked
on so many
and he's a slave owner
so think about that
anyway
so it's his moral obligation
to win the land
you can't say
Kelby
within a five yard
distance of what.
Yeah, he's too pale.
He'll slow down.
Kelby said to me, he's like,
okay, well, I mean, when you get mad,
it's very entertaining.
And I was like, okay, good.
I'm glad.
I'm glad there's some value at it.
What did he message me yesterday, bro?
Because he messaged me.
The whole gang was watching me.
What he said was, and what I found very
touching, because I guess I'm an insane
Tylenol luncher, is that he said,
you're, I was like,
I'm not making it up.
I'm not playing it up.
I'm really that mad at a video game
and that everyone's laughing at me.
And he said,
your natural state then is very entertaining.
And that was the nicest thing he ever said to me.
He wrote to me, bro, the willpower.
I'm exerting to not type in Slime's chat
during any of these games.
And I wrote, it's upsetting.
And that was our conversation.
Your willpower?
I'm always nice to you.
Huh?
No, no.
Kelby said that.
No, Kelby said the willpower to not type.
Because you know Kelby thinks evil thoughts.
Kelby wants to usually type the first thing, it'll push your buttons.
I know.
But then usually gauges whether that will send you into a death spiral.
You can get away with anything in that chat.
I, well, sometimes you just get sad.
So I don't want to make them sad.
I do.
But, bro.
And you're a sad industry package.
I get it.
I want to say everyone is vindicated for the years that they watched me and they
said that I am like an Instagram ad that's bad on purpose to make people play the game.
I get it because everything I am.
Oh, my God.
I see through you.
Yeah.
You are,
we are the same.
During your Mario speed run yesterday when chat was like,
is this a first time playthru?
That was really funny.
Yeah.
No,
is this a blind playthru?
Against Zane?
Yeah,
I got fucking crushed by Zane.
You got crushed by Zane?
Hasn't Zane been playing for like a week?
Yeah,
Zay's been playing for five days and I boot up the game.
It wasn't close.
And I get shit on.
What?
He PBs in the race.
Like he gets his best ever run in the race.
Wait, how is that possible?
You got a 19 minute run pretty good.
It was pretty good.
Is it 16?
It was 16 star
Well, it's possible, Aiden, because
He understands nothing about the game
He's a fucking idiot when it comes to this game
Okay
But there's one line that if he takes
Where, like, if he just perfectly fucking
Walks between these two buildings
On this line, he's a god
What's the line?
It's the 16 star line that he knows
It's the 16 stars. He doesn't know a 17th star
Yeah, he couldn't tell you it
That's so funny
Okay, well
You're like 17 stars Zane and he's like
Alright, I'll find one.
If I said, go to Tall Tall Mountain for a billion dollars and you can't have help, it would take, it would, it would take them years.
Jumping into the paintings that don't have stages.
This is like, you'd be guessing, is this Toltoll Mountain?
This is cope, because it's like, it's like getting mad at a competitive melee player for like not knowing all the trophies.
No, no, for not knowing all the characters.
He didn't, he didn't know that you couldn't lock Mew if you left your fucking console on.
That's where he's at.
But, but he has this one line where he has this one line where he,
he's really good and he won.
And he made me, I have to write
an essay now.
That was the stake.
Is it 200 words?
I have to write a five paragraph essay
about how Zane is the
melee goat over a hungry box.
This is genius.
It doesn't even make sense.
It's like, why would that be the conversation?
Why was that the conversation?
Where's mango in this conversation?
I don't know what to fucking
and I can't use AI.
Because there's, I feel like there's,
it's so hard to find an amount of money
that you could both do
that would hurt you.
But this uses your time.
Time is the best thing.
And your time
being taken away from you,
Dumban, you don't like that.
So funny,
because Zame was supposed to race Armada,
who would have crushed Zame?
Yeah, I think they would have done
like some odds bet for sure.
It would have been like...
And so he found a guy he can beat.
Bro, I thought I was going to beat his ass.
Dude, before the race,
you're like, first round,
I'm going to go for some dumb shit.
I'll go for dumb shit the first race.
Then you were like three stars
behind in the first four minutes.
Was it like a best of three?
It was a best of three, but I paid to
like be exonerated of two games.
So it was basically a best of five.
Oh my God, wait.
So you, it's when you lose the best of three
and you have best of five.
Yes.
He hit him with,
it wasn't even best of five
because he hit him with all the marbles
one match.
Oh my God.
And then quit halfway through.
Because I still got fucking cream.
Dude, it was actually a day of L's.
The, the, between the streams.
Because after the stream, you were like, oh, I want to play this new game.
And you're like, oh, where's my code for the gate?
All the other streamers have codes.
Lovey's the only one without a code.
Dude, everyone was playing this game.
I thought the game was out because I've been playing the game.
He's tweeting at devolver.
Did I get a code?
It's a devolver game and they didn't hit you up?
Bennett Foddy made a new game.
The guy made getting over.
Oh, yeah.
First game in eight years.
And you didn't get one?
I didn't get a code.
That's actually kind of crazy because he made you.
Much fucking dick I've been putting in.
To be fair, you're, you're owed a code.
I'm, I'm what I'm saying?
Anyway, they got me a code, which is sick.
I play it for an hour.
As I'm playing it, I, like, trigger a cutscene.
On my screen, it says, kernel error,
and the whole fucking computer shuts down from the game.
Nice.
The whole computer shuts down.
Yes, the whole fucking bitch shut down.
And then I open it back up, and they didn't save.
And so I'm Gigi.
They lost you.
They lost me.
They lost me.
They lost you on stream.
They lost me.
And you know what?
They shouldn't have given you a code.
They shouldn't have given me a code, bro.
Damn, yeah, that sucks.
Is that the one where, like, you're moving your guy with every limb and he looks all weird?
Yeah, it's like 3D quop, and he looks like fucking doc o'clock.
Yeah.
But fat or, and he got a divorce.
The Tylenol walk.
He's sad.
It was kind of like a Tylenol walk.
Pose only, baby.
Oh, his attention is up.
I unfortunately think this has some legs.
It might be telling Tylenolol jokes a year for me.
Kind of controversial opinion
Trying to reverse autism
Kind of the dopest thing
He's ever tried to do
Going against Big Pharma
For once he has a goal
Yeah, that isn't the worst thing in the world
I like how he's tackling Tylenol too
That's a big one
Yeah, dude
It's crazy
He's not going for an eaves show
Dude, do you know what he's saying
Tylenol
Because it's easier to say
Than acetamine
Yeah
That's why he keeps saying it
Yeah
So he's saying a brand
Which is crazy
It's like the fucking president
Go like Pepsi's bad
Yeah
And it's like
What the
Fuck.
Lo-key.
There's definitely some people
where they're getting their
generic acetymedophon
and they're like, well,
this is fine.
This is fine.
This is not Tylenol.
Trump said Tylenol.
I fuck my sister tonight.
Everything's gonna be fine.
We're going against Big Pharma
and everyone's like, okay.
I like that.
It's like,
Tylenol's first.
We're like,
yeah, all right.
Yeah, it's bad for you.
We all know that.
Bad for you.
Dude,
it's giving you autism.
Hold on.
Back up.
Why?
It's also the Rapture today.
Yeah.
So,
I'm afraid to play my league matches today during the Rapture.
I'm not feeling maybe I should skip a day.
Well,
no,
I think maybe it could be good
because the last time when I hit Platt,
it was also the Rapture is when California was on fire.
So I think it,
I think in a way it makes the Rift a safe place.
Wow.
A safe place,
but all the righteous are pulled up?
Yeah,
that's why that's why the Rift is a safe place.
safe place because there's no one righteous on the rift.
So everyone's the same?
Everyone's the same on the rift.
You're all evil once you go to Summoner's Rift.
When autism's finally gone, where'd all the cinch players go?
Why are they going?
Why don't have Shako players in the game anymore?
It's so weird.
Just say that about any character.
Why's everyone playing Vex now?
Aiden Ross is back on Twitch, too.
Yeah, they just...
Aidan Ross is back.
Dude, I got to comp...
My SEO, it's crumpling.
Yeah, you're...
Yeah, you are fucked.
Oh, yeah.
Do you know for years when I would say, hey, Siri, call Aiden, it would call Aiden Ross.
Just knew the more famous number.
Dude.
It would just every time call Aiden.
That's crazy, because I've, surely we have called each other more.
I mean, yeah, but I don't think.
So why wouldn't it default to me?
I don't think she, I don't, I'm actually more surprised that for years you've been calling Aiden.
Well, you've been called me in years.
I haven't got a phone call for you in years.
We've called.
Oh, yeah, we've called, right?
What's like one thing we've talked about?
One thing that you've talked about in my defense.
You're already on the...
Yes, I'm on the back foot.
I'm on the back foot.
Okay.
In my defense, he's a silent consent.
Usually not fun out of the blue calls to see what Aiden's up to.
This is usually...
For years is what you said?
Yes, Aidan's been working me for years.
It is true.
I have been working for years.
Because when he was doing just merch, you were like, hey, Aden, how's the merch going?
Just want to drop in on that one.
Let's check.
Can I give some feedback on the merch loads?
Can I not be a CEO for a second?
One of my favorite things about Aiden and Ludwig's relationship is, is the picture,
you know that picture of the drawn woman just begging a man?
And she's like screaming like, babe, please.
Yes, yes, yes.
It's just, Ludwig, please approve these designs.
Please.
God.
He has to just look at the designs.
And there's a lot of shit he doesn't do that he needs to do right away.
but this is the particular one
because it's like, I would consider it the
more fun one and he's like, please
just fucking approve the fucking designs
and then Ludwig will go and be like, I don't like any of these
and you see Aiden's like
his eye just twitches
and he can't fucking deal with it. That wasn't one of the choices.
False psychotomy.
False dichotomy, but yeah, yeah.
No, whatever you want, babe.
See, now he's Tyler. You turned him into Tyler.
Tyler.
Braden.
I'm like the Hulk.
If you get too tilting my love
You wouldn't like me when I have a four loco
Yeah, it's
Bloodwig also
The merch will come out
For instance, these basketball shorts
Which are very comfortable
I love those basketball shorts
Shut up! Shut up! You just be quiet
And let him talk about it
I don't want to hear about it
He'll
It'll come out and he'll be like
I don't really like that one
So he like won't promote it
Out of like
Not protest but he just
doesn't like it. He doesn't like a design that went from start to finish. That's not true.
No, I think actually a better, I think the best example, because the best example we have is of the blue jacket we did for his bakery drop, which is actually really nice. I think it came out really well.
Love that jacket. We had spent so long on that drop. We spent like nine months designing it. Ludwig has like a hand in like looking at things and improving things through the whole process. We've gotten the final version of the jacket and it has,
a blue stitching on top of a blue jacket,
which depending on whether or not you want it to blend in,
tonal, tonal, you know, you may or may not like that better
than if the stitching was like white, right?
And Ludwig sees this like two weeks before it's gonna go out,
and he's like, why do we do that?
And I'm like, and I looked him in the eye,
my world's crumbling around me.
I look at him and I was like, you, you approved it.
You told me, it was funny.
You told me Ludwig, and you said, I like it.
No, no, no, no, no. You said it's okay.
I'm not responsible for my past decision.
I got an idea for you.
Who is?
I look at everything with fresh eyes.
It's one of my greatest qualities.
Which, unfortunately, is a little true.
And that's what I hate about that statement.
I have fresh eyes every time I look at something
because I forget everything I've done.
It's true?
And in every drop, you need to embroider something onto the tag.
Like, I'm Ludwig and I'm a pedophile.
Yeah.
Or, you know, I'm Ludwig and I'm a mass murderer.
Or like a swastika.
Or like a swastika.
And every drop, Ludwig must tell you to remove it, but he has to know what it is in order
to get it removed before it goes out.
You have to find it.
He has to find it and say remove the swatsika.
And you'd like, of course.
Or why we want that to go out?
He would just get really good at identifying shapes.
Like he would find a way to short change this and be like, yeah, there is found it.
Okay, get it out of there.
And then two weeks before the drop, why is it blue on blue?
Pretty soon when autism's gone, we're going to need.
more people to be good at shapes.
So, I'll lock that down for y'all.
And I'll keep a secret bottle of that shit on me at all times.
Pop a title like it's the invincible pill.
The pill I took an Ibiza.
How was, how was the, I didn't watch a damn minute of the camp.
CP?
You weren't watching any CP?
There's no way.
Yeah.
Camp peak, right.
Yep.
It's, I didn't, no, I didn't.
I didn't tune into the CP.
So they shortened it.
Yeah.
To the letters that...
All the young phase guys were there.
Yeah.
Having a blast.
We had the phase boy be a nut.
Right.
Not was a C.N.
Nut was a CP.
Yes, sir.
For CP and nut clab.
Mm-hmm.
It was a co-lab.
So how was it?
The Rosebud Thorn.
Uh, Rosebud Thorn?
Um, honestly,
Thorne is being 30.
Oh, they reminded you.
huh? And fat.
Oh, they reminded you, huh?
I said, extra, Emily, guess my weight?
She said, 250.
I said, I said,
ah, down a little.
She goes, 220?
Like, she refuses to believe it's under two.
And I go, and I go, let's start with a different digit.
She goes, no.
Get her on here, man.
A lot of way.
Get her on here.
Be serious now.
The neutral was when I was peeing
in my own bedroom sitting down.
in this weird fucked up bedroom
where the bathroom
is like
it's like one of those glass walls
where there's a shower
and you can just see it
it's not like blocked
yeah it's not like a bathroom in Tokyo
it's a real it's a real but there's no blocker at all
it's not like a curtain you could draw
and the toilet's in the shower
so you couldn't do the bed really
yes the toilet there's a wall
well every shower is a toilet
true but there's an actual toilet
with shit shitter
and it's weird because the toilet paper
just gets wet every time
you shower. It's not the greatest design.
That's crazy. But I'm sitting there
butt-ass naked peeing. They
went, kick the door down
and then I
only had a chance to look at him for a fucking
second because I was peeing and I turned back
and I went, what the fuck?
And they went, oh my God, because
people like to cut through our bedroom
because it's an easier walk to the
backyard. Ah.
So that's the only reason they were there. Are you
butt-ass naked? I'm butt-ass naked.
And they saw you butt-ass? But they like, they down? No, because there's a
wall partition, so all they see is my bare shoulder
in the back of my head and my
turn body and the knowledge that I'm naked
in this room. That's painterly. And do you know what they do?
What would you do in this situation? If I'm you or them?
Them. Oh, how bad?
Wait, if I was...
I mean, if it's you, it's different. Wait, if I was me
in this, in their place?
No, if you're them. Yeah. I'd probably
If you're you, what do you do? Fucking pee on the floor?
What, no. I would, I would, dude,
I'd walk in and make fun of you. It'd say, how's that
piss going? Oh, yeah. If it's
doesn't see you naked, I make it. I make it. I would
undoubtedly approach you closer.
You are fucking
extra Emily.
What they do is they, instead
of backing away, is they open it,
they turn and they go, ah,
we're hoping to cut through. Can we cut
through? And I'm still there.
And I'm like, I guess
okay, we won't look.
And I'm like, I would hope.
And then they just fucking walk on
through. Like I'm fucking
chopped huss.
Wait, I feel like they kind of negotiated.
right I feel like I don't have a lot of negotiating power they're no you're definitely the in the
week they're negotiating of the weak man yeah yeah I think what you what you're doing that spot
is you say sure you can cut through and then you just start taking a shit yeah I was gonna say
you start firing blanks into the toilet if you're really putting like like airy parts into the
toilet while they're walking by and they're like you kind of I don't have that ready to go it's like deal
Actually, Emily throws up on herself.
Try it. Try it. Try it. Try it.
It's delicious. Enjoy this.
Ludwig keeps knocking over Jackie Chan's wax severed hand that is sitting on the set.
And I remember why it's here because his Dr. Nudelslam and my other friend, Ben,
visited this past weekend.
And we were, Ben's never seen the office before.
So we were showing them around like all the different parts.
And Nudel Slam picked up this hand downstairs, put his drink in it.
like, made the hand hold his drink
and then proceeded to spend the next
20, 30 minutes we were at the office
drinking his drink with Jackie Chan's hand.
Yeah, right, yeah.
Which you kind of stop noticing,
but I realized that's how this migrated the whole way up.
Everything that guy does, you're just like he's a real doctor.
He's a doctor.
And I always think about it.
This is like when Dennis knows Mac is going to chew on the pen.
I placed it here for Sam.
and yeah
you call me like Sam was here
I bet he enjoyed that
but he loved the hand
they had been hanging out
the whole week with Sam's
fiance
and Sam and Ben
are both scuba certified
so they were way
they went to the
they went to the channel islands
to go scuba diving
and like Catalina Island
and while they were here
they kept talking about how
oh it's like cool
they're workshopping this in the car
it's cool that like I have
like this anonymous
nickname on the podcast
like I'm Dr. Nudel Slam so like nobody
like really knows who I am even though we say
Sam half the time anyway he's like so
Ben Ben needs a name like
that for the show and they were they were like
so we came up with pedophile Ben
really I don't think you guys
you guys that was my
one of you raw guess it no I'd not
know this I didn't crazy
the first thing I thought was pedophile Ben
you said pedophile Ben so that's how it's so fast to join
he's already thinking it
that's great
Because they were like, it's so funny.
It's like, we need an anonymized name so that nobody knows who Ben really is.
But he's easily easily distinguishable from other counties.
We'll call him Pedophile Ben.
Pedophile Ben, man.
They like pitched this to me.
And so what did pedophile Ben get down with?
Did he play some minigolf?
You should have brought him to CP.
You would have loved it then.
Betipal Ben
did crush us
at mini golf
in Cadillet Island
Yeah, he's good at
Childish games
Yeah, I bet
Get him on
him regular golf
He's lost
But
The children's version
He's good at
His back nine
Was incredible
It was incredible
It was
A damn treat
We're gonna be young
Forever
Dude I was at a
A coffee shop
And
Oh, was it this morning
No, no
It was
Wait,
Why are you saying that?
Oh, but you couldn't resist.
You couldn't resist.
Are you saying this because I showed up at 9.32?
No.
I'm not allowed.
I'm not allowed.
You're a pathetic worm.
You're a pathetic worm.
I'm not allowed to say that.
You're grasping onto a small amount of sand you could hold on to.
You pathetic worm, bro.
It's a diversion.
I walk in at 9.
9302 I walk in.
This won't help this time.
This broke your rule.
You broke it.
I didn't break a fucking rule.
You were not allowed to fucking say shit about me being late
until the end of the year.
This is saying shit.
I am not!
Yes, it is.
It literally is.
You know that's against the spirit of the rule.
You said it, and you immediately said,
I'm not allowed to say that.
What?
I did.
You just did that right now.
I did that?
Yes.
So you acknowledge that you broke the rule.
What's my punishment then?
Life or level.
You know what is?
You're going to eat your cum, I guess.
You're going to blow you and swallow you and swallow your fucking jays in front of
of everyone, including our friends and everyone in the show.
watching the show.
You want to be a fuck bite on the show.
You want me to fucking swallow.
You want me to show the camera first.
What do you want him to be?
You want to show the camera.
You can't put my tongue out.
It's fucking pat.
I don't like how you show the fucking over to everybody.
I guess you fucking want that.
No.
I don't want this.
The ring light on the camera.
You see it clearly.
I don't want that.
What I'm saying?
No.
Why is there a ring light?
I don't want to lose you!
King James By-love!
I want you to on-stream
watch one episode of One Piece.
Dude.
Wow, that's a great punishment.
You have to watch it on stream.
You know, I've been weaving out a little bit.
I've been reading Trigone again.
Fucking 45-year-old man.
They came out the 90s.
They cooked it up different.
I've been weave it out,
I don't care, bro.
That's how weev it out, bro.
You're unking out.
I'm honking out, but I have to go on a
bastard site to read Tregon.
What's like the movie comparison?
Oh, dude, go download fucking malware.
I feel like it's, it's like, you know,
like 2001 of Space Odyssey.
I was gonna say, it's like saying, it's like saying you're weeping out.
I just watched Akira.
Like that is, it's like that.
I think it's, in this.
I'm reading a manga.
I guess it's like reading, it's reading the book Jaws is based
off of. Okay.
Because Jaws is a book for a movies. It's like, I'm reading
Jaws. I'm filming out.
I'm filming out. I'm reading the Jaws book. That's what he
said. I think it's, I think there's
I'm reading no country. A little bit later. What's up?
You're on your phone? Can you get off your phone
for two seconds? Give me a second. Why? I need to
fucking get a flight to France, but I have to explain
to Yingling what international waters are because he's not fucking booking it
right. Oh, did he try to go swimming when you see that again? He's doing a stop in
every country along the way. I feel like
And I'm trying to explain to him.
You can go over the Atlantic.
You're asking a guy who doesn't know shapes to book your flight.
Should we explain sovereignty to him or is that too advanced?
Anyway.
There's a much easier than all this.
You could just get Axel.
All you have to do is message Axel on WhatsApp.
And if he's already booked your flight, it'll literally check if there was a price drop and refund you the difference.
It's like a Nick Yingling on my phone.
It's like a Nick Yingling that we all already have that you don't have.
Did you guys have it?
Yeah, we have it.
I mean, it's just in WhatsApp.
right? You don't even need another app. That's the thing that Europeans use. Yeah.
Yeah, well, that's why it actually put me on to it because it's all over Sweden. I'm not happy about it,
but I still use it to go on my weed smoke world tour. And I know you've been complaining
because you allow Nick Engling to sleep between the hours of 2 a.m. and 6 a.m., you know, freshen up
a little bit. But this guy's available 24-7.
It monitors price changes literally every hour of every single day. It'll refund you if you missed
out on a better price. Is Axel fun to hang?
out with and lights up a room like Nick Kingling?
Yeah, sometimes I'm just like, what do you eat today?
I don't really get a reply, but you
can do it, you can try. He even has a setting
to keep it 99, where he'll just lie
to you if you want him to. I like that.
Yeah, all right, well, how do I swap out?
Most people wouldn't want that setting, just like you
wouldn't want your friend to be like that.
Yeah, so if you want to fire your assistant, like Nick
Yingling, um, and stop overpaying for
travel, go to helloaxel.com slash
the yard for your 14 day free trial.
Call Nick Engling. After that, it's just $35
a year after that.
users saved double than that on their first booking alone. Yep, sign up now and let Axel handle the deals while you enjoy the trip. What are you doing? You're calling him? Hello? Hey, you're fired, dude. Yeah, G on that. That was easy. Back to the show now. It's because Axel. I can't win. I try to, I'm say I was reading a manga. We've been watching League.
Wow. Wow. See, if Kelby said that, he'd shoot him.
Go ahead, give me a lap.
Let's go ahead, give me a lap.
I don't know, you didn't give me a lap.
Oh, you want to fucking suck you dry?
Oh, you want to fucking deep throw you?
You want to fucking have your mushroom puppy
the back of my throat?
Mushroom puppy in the back of you.
I hate it.
You want to fucking do it so deep.
I start sneezing out your fucking saliva comb.
Ew.
You made it, you know.
That's what you're supposed to go.
He went where you're supposed to go.
Sturally, he went where the joke needed to go.
And that's why he's good.
Damn it.
When you're wearing that outfit, I can't take you seriously.
Why?
Because I look like I could fucking break your ankles.
I see the Shubi picture.
The Shubi picture?
Zipper, can you go to Shubi's Twitter?
I think it's like his last media tweet.
Shubi art.
You guys know a fucking, like, top 100 highest earning basketball players all time.
No, you're not.
That's not even true.
You can't do that one.
I thought about the salaries that they made.
You just tried to pull it off the chess thing, but it doesn't work in a sport where people actually get paid.
People actually get paid the whole way down.
100,000.
No, well, no, yeah, definitely.
100,000?
How 100,000 even played in the NBA?
No, no, no, no, definitely not even close.
Yeah, top 100,000.
I think, what's the NLB, like 60, 70,000?
All time, ever?
I think it's like 70,000.
I feel like maybe, yeah.
But you have to be thinking about every person
who's played professional basketball
ever in, like, most leagues.
Yeah, it might broach a mill.
I'm gonna say 84,000 people.
I don't think there's like a
findable number in the baseball
in the MLB.
But yeah, obviously there's a final number.
Oh, MLB, you could have a number for sure.
You could definitely know.
NBA, but it wouldn't include professional basketball.
How many people have played?
Oh, you're talking about fucking minor league.
Yeah, or Europe.
Or China.
It's not basketball.
People playing with the tigers.
Play a fucking play.
Oh, we should.
With the dead fish in the net.
We can't talk about it too long
because I think it annoys people.
Is it pulled up?
What, the, yeah, please pull up the
The should be going down.
The shoeby picture.
Oh my God.
I think you got to reply.
I think it's a reply to that.
You click into that for us.
So it's a picture of me when I was bald.
It's in this outfit.
And I look what I can only describe as like, I don't know.
Well, you look accurate.
I look grotesque.
I look like Job of the Hut.
It's such a...
I look like Baron Harkening.
You look like a Jonin Vasquez character.
So I actually paid Shuby to make this.
Do you know that?
Yes, I forgot that I had seen this before.
I'm my horrible friend.
I got art made of my awesome friend.
I have art of Aden in my house.
I'm gonna fucking commission somebody
to just draw a picture of like
of what?
Volleybear stroking each other off.
Oh no.
And I'm dead ass not gonna show anyone.
I'm actually gonna fucking do that.
I'm gonna get a picture of you and fucking volleyball
not show anyone you stroking each other off.
I'm just fucking we're just jerking each other as red next.
Yeah, and fucking Gwen is looking over you guys, and she's just fucking like this.
Gwen's in the cuck chair.
And she's going, stroke it.
Yeah, I'm going to fucking commission.
And her like little bridge boy.
Is that going to piss you off?
I'm going to fucking look at that.
I'm going to use it for sexual pleasure.
I'm not going to tell you when.
I'm not going to tell you how often I do it.
I, dude, okay, while you're here zipper, can you go to the yard Twitter?
There's a couple things I want to bring up.
Yeah, but you do.
One is you, I think you lost, man.
Jack Black is more famous than Shohay.
Oh, because the Yard Twitter viewers.
Oh, well, there's that.
Scroll past that first one.
Scroll past it and then just go to the poll, yeah.
So the Yard Twitter viewers, 17,000 votes.
Showhah Tani.
What a small number of people?
It is, but I think it's also big enough to where it matters a little bit.
No.
Because all this data is from the U.S. event.
We can't do this.
We can't do this a third time.
We can't do this a third time.
Let me just, is the only thing I want to say.
Everyone gets one statement.
I am going to China and I will interview the Chinese.
I will decide, I will determine.
We got some data on this too, by the way.
No, no, no, but I'm going to actually go.
Yeah, some people who have actually gone gave us the data.
People who have gone are giving anecdotal data about what they remember.
I'm going to go and I'm going to do a fucking study because I'm going to ask 50 Chinese people.
Oh, so 50 is a big number.
50 is fine, and 17,000 is a small number.
Randomly dispersed across 2,500 kilometers.
Yes, we would call that a significant data pool.
Oh, 50 people in one country, interesting.
Now, what you wouldn't consider a significant data pool is fucking, like, white college guys and lesbians.
Like, what are we doing here?
That's it.
That's the only people we've interviewed.
I love that.
Those are the two.
Like, the two people listening to the air podcast.
And there's not a lot of baseball viewers in that group.
There's not a lot of fucking baseball years in that 17,000.
Okay, well, there was also a post, there was a post on the subreddit that I actually found really enlightening.
And, okay, as an Indian, it's Jack Black, and it's not even close.
He says, my introduction to Jack Black was Kung Fu Panda in 08.
He said people, he does a lot of data.
It's actually, writing is like a fucking me too statement.
Because what you said is so fucking egregious.
But what he said was, he's like, dude, Jumanji already clears.
I'm going to India as well.
Great. I'm going to India with Squeaks and I'll interview 50 Indians. You're going to be proven so wrong. I will find out for real though. And it won't be some bullshit fucking yard viewer. It's not people who are guessing. It's people who have been to India and China or are from India China. I'm just saying like if you are from China but you're a yard listener, I don't think you're a good demo for the average Chinese citizen. There is something that happened. The yard has been put into a legal battle. Okay.
And I hate to be the one to tell you.
But I got to bring this up.
So zipper, they're, did I send you to images?
Can you bring up the first one for me?
So this is called Art in the Yard.
I think it's in North or South Carolina.
North Carolina.
North Carolina.
It's in North Carolina?
Yeah.
And it's...
I think Alex might have been the plug.
He might have.
He might have put them on.
And if you look, this is...
Scroll up.
This is our logo.
This is the yard logo
The island arts council
The island arts council took our logo
And I actually did some research
They've been using this since 2022
For art in the yard
For art in the yard
And so here's
And so what I did is
I took I had a couple thoughts
I was like you know what
This is like an art thing
An art thing
And then I looked on the Facebook page
And they have t-shirts
Uh-oh
Uh-oh
No
Always
A no
Art in the yard
Or the yard.
And usually I'm like, who fucking cares?
They typed in the yard.
They saw the awesome logo that, you know, we selected out of a bunch of designs that we had commissioned and we built as a logo.
I mean, it might not seem like it.
It's a little fence.
And I was like, you know, whatever, they just picked it.
But then I thought, isn't it due diligence of an art festival to make their own logo?
You would hope.
You would hope.
And then do it for three years.
Now, there's many legal courses of action here.
There's a lot.
And they would be simple routes.
Might I propose something else?
Sure.
They're using what clearly seems to be
like a downloaded version.
It's kind of low-res.
It's overlapping.
We reach out to them.
We send them a high-res version.
But watermarked.
Not even watermarked.
Really subtly.
Well, just like barely.
I think you're thinking what I'm thinking.
Almost imperceptible.
You couldn't even notice it from afar.
Like so far away.
You wouldn't even take it.
Swastika.
Boom.
It's just swatzaka.
Hard in the yard.
It's North Carolina, man
I don't know
They're like, why does this logo look cool?
There's something about it's like
I don't know
I didn't like it before
I like it now though
The yard generalizes south again
Well I think what happens
Is I think people go to Google
And they type yard logo
Because they're a yard themed thing
Of course
Because this happens actually
To some amount people steal our logo
But that is my idea
Still is larceny
We change the podcast name
To McDonald's
So you're more stolen
Guys guys guys
This is all full
fine and good, but I've already proposed
and launched a solution. You've launched
it. I've launched a solution. So
my terms to the Island Arts Council
is two things. One, just change
it, make your own logo, you're an Arts Council,
you can do it. Two,
submit my art
for your festival. Right.
In perpetuity to be displayed at
every Arts Council meeting.
Yes. And
if Zipper, you could show them the art piece
that I made. Wow.
Wow, and it's a dribbling, not dribbling, not dribbling, not dribbling, arcing, it's an arcing.
There's no dribble.
Why is the cock so thin, slime?
We're looking at a, we're looking at a, curved, curved, hard, drawn dick shooting ropes.
And I want to say it's pencil thin.
It's more like confetti than ropes.
It's not pencil thin.
It is pencil thin.
Why are you getting offended?
It's just a thing you drew.
It's not girthy.
It's not gertie.
Well, it's not girthy.
Well, it's not girthy.
No.
It's not girthy.
But I wouldn't say pencil thin.
But it's not pencil thin.
It's not, I mean, I mean, it's not.
You're doing this.
You're doing this.
It's circled, which I, I think I take artistic, you know, issue with that.
Well, look.
It doesn't seem inclusive.
The artist is the artist.
If you wanted to draw one for the Island Arts Council, actually, they should take all of our art.
I'll know how to plug with you.
So anyway, there should be a center where there's four easels and roses on the ground.
Like a, yeah, like a shrine.
I think we should make one of the Island Arts Council members
enter the race to gold.
Oh my God, they would never do it.
Some 45-year-old woman.
And they're amazing.
A 39-year-old son-up player.
How's this for art?
So did you...
Susan?
So did you reach out to them?
I did you message or email on the Instagram
and I said, here's your two options.
You said it like, you said it like a fucking mafia member?
Yeah, I said like level 99 crime boss.
They got two fucking options.
I was like, I was like, this is the show for our web series.
We can do the easy way or the hard way.
That's so awesome.
They're making t-shirts with our damn logo on it.
They are.
I saw the t-shirts and I was like, okay, hold on.
We should go.
I want to see the t-shirts.
I want to-
It's just a logo on a Heather gray shirt.
It's just,
is it literally just a logo?
The whole, like, art in the yard.
It's like the colorful background
and then the yard logo and it's Heather Gray shirt.
That is an ugly shirt.
It is an...
Wait, we should steal their design.
We should just sell it.
That's right.
We should just sell it.
It's the best idea ever.
This is, I like this idea.
They can't do literally anything.
I don't know how that works.
No, no, we're, they stole our logo.
Yeah, yeah, but you enter it, because like, what's that guy's name?
The guy who used to just steal shit all the time?
Uh, Pito Ben.
Pito Ben?
Is this not, is this, is this not the art equivalent of when we stole your truck back,
when we found it in the street with like, when slime found it in the street with nobody in it?
Yes.
And we just stole the truck back to get it back.
It's street justice.
No, no, that, it's street justice for sure.
I'm just thinking of the, there's the fucking, there's a famous law case where it's,
It's the guy.
Fuck, what's his name?
He, like, takes art and he, like, puts on logos.
Is it like the Campbell's logo?
Banky?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, um, no, no.
He's talking, he's talking at Warhol.
Warhol.
Andy Warhol?
Andrew Warhol had a court case
because he got sued for taking people's logos.
Uh-huh.
And won the court case because he had changed it enough.
Transformative.
This is not the legal grounds ours is in at all.
But no, no, no, I'm saying there.
What if theirs is considered transform because they have an ugly background?
The logo.
Isn't the logo?
exact same, though. The Campbell's logo, look
up Andy Warhol, I'm saying this is, it's
tougher than it thinks. It's entirely different color scheme.
I think Ludwig
as a, it's worth
you know, it's not as cut and dry as
no, they didn't
transform it. That's Prince.
There's type in Warhol Campbell's.
Also, he used the
can, not the logo, in his art.
Is there no logo in
because the
Campbell's logo is the
Campbell's, the text.
He just drew a can of soup.
He drew the colorful cans of soup.
I don't know shit about art.
I'll say that much.
I don't know a damn thing.
That was art back in the day, huh?
Yeah, he's like 1962.
I just did asses.
That is like the dumbest painting ever.
What's sick is that he did it again in 68.
Like he ran it back.
I know,
I know of like the colorful one on the left side there, top left.
Like I know of that when I think.
But look at the one that's just actually dead ass like repeating logo.
Yeah, yeah.
He has a lot of repeating stuff too.
I don't know if any of these are
which one's original or not
Campbell's soup one. I think the top left
the MoMA one for sure. Oh yeah
probably MoMA. One time Ludwig made fun of me when we
first started hanging out because I said
like we were working on something I was like this is
these are like dumb
like Normie jokes he's like
whatever war hall
and I was like
all right I think I understand this guy
don't be reference
this is uh I'd never notice till right now that
it's all the flavors
yeah yeah this guy's just into soup
This guy's just really fucking hungry at the grocery store.
He was just writing down all of them.
That's what happens when you're really hungry.
Bean. Bean soup.
It's the only one that's cut those two.
Fuck it. Let's make the fucking merch.
I'm not to get into a lawsuit with him.
We can make it one to one and just sell it for like a dollar last.
Can we just release it in this episode?
What if we make it one to two?
What if it?
Because the island arts council.
What if we change one word?
Oh God.
They shouldn't have been an island.
Yeah
Wow
I'm just saying
What if it's the
I've seen island art council
Wow
We can't sell that
I guess we should
We can sell a shirt
And whatever we want
I don't want to sell that shirt
Next to the
Fcine Island Arts Council
It says island arts council
But island is in quotes
That's better
It's more subtle
Anyway
Yeah it sucks
It sucks to wake up to news like that
So go ahead
click this link down below
If you'd like to buy
this shirt. Buy our I've seen island shirt.
Nope, don't know. It supports
the arts. We're going to
change my mind. We're going to lose the lawsuit.
They're going to see this part in the clip
and we're going to lose the loss. Come at us, North Carolina.
I know Mr. Beast. It would be really
easy to make the art symbol a symbol
of hate and then their event would forcefully
need to change. That's because it's a symbol of hate.
That would suck. That's like Archer.
The company's called ISIS and then they just
have to change it. Yeah.
It sucks to suck. Do you think maybe they got it from
Matt? From the
Like ISIS got it from
Archer? Maybe. No, it's an acronym. They were watching and they're like, dude, this shit's
awesome. Unless it's an archer, it stood for like the Islamic state of whatever.
Yeah, it was the same. Vans for.
Isis fell off. I fell off. I just fell off. I just fell off crazy. You don't hear
about Isis. Did not fell off. I just did not fell off.
I thought about pigs in a blanket. What was the last time you were at any sort of party
and someone had made pigs in a blanket? I've had pigs in a blanket within the last
year. No, you have not. Well, actually,
Qudy definitely makes kids and pigs in blank.
She's a pings in the blanket. That's some shit that she'd be like,
at least once a year. We had these at Easter
type of thing. Yeah. Yeah. I've
haven't eaten pigs in a blanket in a long time.
I haven't seen pigs in a blanket.
I'm not. No, I'm not. If you were to hang out
churchgoers, because in churchgoers are up
right now. So I'm saying pigs in the blanket are up right now.
They're up? They're not up right now. Church goers are up right now.
Church attendants are down? Yeah, church attendants are up right now.
Oh, like R.N. Yeah, fascists are up too.
by the way, good guys are down.
Good guys are down?
Good guys are down.
How can good guys be down
when there's more Chinese people than ever?
What is that even mean?
What are you compensating for?
Okay.
Oh, they're not good guys.
No.
It's not really bad inherently
because of where they're from.
I think if their choice is a bad base off where you're from.
Only you haven't even toyed around with these ideas
and we're so far from.
I think you're good or bad based on where you're from.
And I'm down to go country for country.
Yeah, I was going to say like, we can really test this one.
Literally running through China.
You're all such good people.
I love you.
Shusha.
What about Algeria?
How do you feel about Algeria, Frenchman?
Not the hottest on it.
Wow.
It was Beckinstein?
Hmm?
Love.
Love. Love. Love it.
Huh?
Hate.
Cuck.
Actually, the worst.
Yeah.
The worst.
Yeah, I would call it the Epstein Nation.
Yeah.
Epstein Crody.
All right.
Speaking of Aiden,
hating dogs and coffee shops,
we were at a coffee shop,
me and QD.
Yeah.
and there was a lady in line
and her husband was looking for a seat
and he kind of reminded me of the guy
who was really sad and pathetic from office space
the stapler guy
oh yeah yeah he was like that guy
and he was looking around and he's like
there's no spots in the back
but maybe I'll look in the front and so he's doing that
you're wearing shorts and huh he's wearing shorts
he's wearing like cargo shorts yeah this is how every
offline TV viewer looks in real life he they're 50
and I rest my case okay and he goes to the
front of the cafe and, and a dog barks at him. There's like a dog took it on his women's
leg. How big? And it's, it was like literally in a cubby. It's maybe an Italian greyhound.
Okay. Kevin size. Small dog. Small dog and it barks at him like a couple times. And then,
and then he walks back to the line. And the lady who's ordering, uh, here's this, right? His wife.
And he goes, you allow dogs in here. And then, and then the lady behind the guy goes,
yeah yeah we love dogs and she goes
hmm let's see if the health code
likes that oh
Aiden was there
and then and then and then the lady kind of
unlocks yourself answering and she goes
yeah I think I'll call them up and we'll see
about that and then
this whole interaction
I am looking at the calories of orange juice
I haven't noticed of this thing you're like that's a lot
and I'm literally thinking that
and cutie who only
eavesdrops on conversations and ignores me
to heaths drop fucking china
in and goes, she goes, you'll be all right.
Oh, she chimes in?
Yeah, she chimes in.
That's badass.
You'll be all right.
And then he goes, the lady goes, thank you.
And she's like, yeah, you'll live.
And she's like, and she goes, thank you.
And then they had this little back and forth.
They have a little tiff.
They have a little tiff.
And I only hear the tiff.
And I'm like, oh, you chime in.
You chastity tiff.
Ladies, orange juices out of control these days.
Maybe we just took to the fruit.
This much sugar.
And then the lady
Who is ordering
She goes she goes
You know what? You guys can go ahead of us
And I'm and I'm the one who's gonna fucking order
I go no
Okay
What is going on in white people?
And then she just fucking she goes
You know what? Fine. And then just leaves
Whoa
And she just leaves
No order. See you know down
No order
And her husband follows and her husband 100% follows
Yeah
He got large to his legs
You get a large orange juice?
And then I get the orange juice
And I let her
I like Qudy know
I'm like
He's got a lot of sugar
I'm gonna eat this
I'm be hyper all day
Damn that lady is a
But that's
But that's one of your people
That's one of your people
That's right the same
In the moment I realized
I was like
QD is the defender
Against Aiden's around the world
Because as soon as you do
As soon as you do
What that lady's doing
It's like you're doing
The only thing worse
Than bringing your dog
In that coffee shop
Making a stink
Making a fucking stink
So you're
saying get rid of the dog quietly.
Yeah.
If I'm her, if I'm her, I look the cashier
in the eyes, I give her, I flash my
minty fresh smile, and then I go
fucking choke the dog out in the mirror.
You say, give me one second.
He's like, yeah, can I get an ice latte?
And he's just unwrapping a Hershey's bar.
Oh my God.
It's just feeding it.
I had almost the exact, I reaffirmed
my belief in this this week because I've been
walking around different neighborhoods in L.A.
and the sidewalks are just,
they're just covered in dog shit.
Oh, that's your issue with the sidewalks.
They're covered in dog shit. Really?
What's your issue with the sidewalks?
My issue with the sidewalks is twofold.
One, they don't have them
like handicap accessible in many areas.
That's true.
In the sense that it doesn't go from like a raised sidewalk
into like a slope.
Do you use a wheelchair where you get around?
I need to be disabled to be considered of them.
Some sidewalks have jumps.
that's bad
it's a high elo fucking sidewalk
you just have to
it's just harder
good I don't know what to tell you dude
all your wheelchair up the gap
all you're the wheelchair of the gap
like it's fucking skates
if you can't do
if you can't do four steps
with your wheelchair it's like why do it
how long have you even been doing it
okay they need some fucking all terrain
tiles on them
my second issue is the trees that were planted
were not planted to the consideration
that they'll grow
and the roots take over the
sidewalk. Those are cool. I always like
when it breaks out. It's like beautiful, right?
And then you have those sidewalks. It's sliding back.
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, that's also
cool. By the sandwich shop we go
to where it's like all fucked up. It looks like a movie.
Why is? You guys are
I don't know. I think it's awesome. I don't know.
You think it's awesome. It's cool. Because it's like, whoa, fall guys.
Oh, again, bad for people in wheelchairs.
Uh, sure, but their life
is bad, right? They're always looking
there. There's always a struggle there. That's why we
have laws that are supposed to make it better.
Sure, man.
I think that's, it's a great initiative,
and you could talk to your city council about it,
but you never will.
It's already a law.
Well, then you need to get their ass to follow the law.
I speed all the time.
It's the law, not to do that.
You speed all the time?
Actually, I don't.
I hate speeding.
Well, I break a lot of laws.
I have a gun.
You know, my problem is the sidewalk level
is that the kids who do the hopscotch
in my neighborhood, they make it too hard.
It's like really long.
Like, they're going to like a hundred.
They're not accounting for your name.
And I walk by, I have OCD, I gotta do the, I gotta do the hopscotch.
You do the hopscotch.
Yeah, yeah.
The kid put it on the fucking ground.
I'm not gonna not gonna not to the hopscotch.
But I'm not kidding, they're going to a hundred these days.
Hundreds really intense.
That's good.
The circles are like this big.
I think I like that the kids have enough concentration and willpower to make it go to a hunt.
It's the same issue we have in video games where like the skill floor is so high that it's hard to enjoy hopscotch anymore.
We've been pushing, we've been silently pushing the skill floor of hopscotch all these years.
The hopscotch meta is going crazy now.
My girlfriend.
does it. She does it wrong. I'm like, go again.
Gotta go. I don't let her go again. We can't go past this
point until you fucking do it. Go again. Whip-blashing
your girlfriend? Yeah.
Not quite my tempo.
She's like, I have a meeting.
Doesn't matter. I have a call in like
five minutes and you're like, well, you shouldn't have lost
on 27. Nick from the yard fucked me.
What? What? I didn't do that. Yes, you did.
What do you mean? I fucked you. How? I...
Why did he get to fuck you? I... I was doing a video where I watched
different YouTubers and then I bought whatever ad
they promoted. Yeah. I did this. I actually did this.
Yeah. And Adam Ragousia.
I love that guy. Lovely guy.
Lovely man. He has a Helix sleep sponsorship. Oh, he looks sleep. I have a
helix and mattress actually. And I, and I, and I, I don't actually have. I
know, funny enough. How many do you have?
Three. Interesting. Yeah. Because what I need to do for the sponsor was try every
product. So when I reach out to Helix sleep, I said, could I, could we cash in on one of the
mattresses? Yeah, I reached out actually and said Ludwig would like one and I put it in my
guest room. Yeah. That's what they said.
They said Ludwig, we already sent you your mattress.
I said Ludwig, the YouTuber.
So I had to do the sleep quiz, which was enjoyable process, to be honest.
And I had to order my own mattress.
Now, the only fucking good news is that first off, the sleep quiz gave me the exact mattress I wanted
because it was very comfortable.
You get Midnight Lux?
I got Midnight Lux.
Not elite.
That's what, no, Midnight Lux.
That's what I ordered for you to my house.
That's so funny.
He's so thoughtful.
Yeah.
Well, it's not.
thoughtful because I don't come stay.
Why don't you just go to his house?
You can be cozy to the USA over.
Because it's for my house.
You don't go to next house very often.
You're always about possessions.
Like you possess, you know, memory foam, cooling features.
You possess sleep zones.
Yes.
Yeah, I want to possess a sleep zone that's different for me and my girlfriend because she likes it soft.
Do you like it hard?
I like it hard.
And she likes it soft.
What a flip on the classical dynamic.
Well, anyway, if you like it soft, hard or anything in between.
Here's what I want to say.
Go to Heelix Sleep.
com slash Adam Regusia.
No,
which is the code I used
That would be 25%
It would work great for him.
That would work great.
Even better though is the yard
HelixSit.com slash the yard.
That's 25% off site wide Ludwig
and Adam Ruggiusia
I think he's actually 24%
Well, I actually was able to get
a Midnight Lux mattress for $1,300 with free shipping
using Helixleep.com
slash Adam Ruggusia.
So we need so they know the yard sent you.
I've never used the yard's link.
Otherwise, don't think Adam Roussia sent you.
If you use Adam's link will lose the sponsor.
I don't know if this.
I'd love it you at Hewishton.com slash the Yon for
Helix sleep. Maybe they don't care. I've never used this
link. It could work. It couldn't work. I do know Adams for sure works
because I bought it with my own money. It's an art link. Use art link.
So they know that the Yarsetka. I've never used. You put both links on the screen
and let them choose. And compete. I like that. But both you can choose
to the masses. Which was harder to smell. Oh and the pillows are
also great. All right. My beautiful girlfriend
was she she had deleted TikTok off of her phone. Whoa. But she
guiltily watches YouTube shorts
which is you know the same shit
that's not the same shit
it's not the same in quality but it's
and so she doesn't like
when I look over her shoulder
to see what's on her feet
she's very sensitive about me backseating
whatever her algorithm is
song song to who so I take
I take a peek what are you watching
and then Zipper can you pull it up in the chat
she's watching this video and she's like
crying laughing out of like the
combined interest and shame
she has that I think she's engaged with
this video.
Ranking AI toast
spreads. Oh my God. And it's an
AI video where there's like
aluminum balls being spread
on a beautifully buttered piece of toast.
And it's AI and it looks
great.
Like I got to come clean. It's got sound too.
It looks really good.
Am I wrong about this?
Yeah, it looks good. It looks good.
It looks insane.
Wait, what's that?
I don't like this one.
I don't like the clouds.
Oh, you don't like the clouds?
I don't like the noise they make.
I don't like the diamonds.
I like the diamonds.
Oh my god.
You know how usually in these AI video, oh, the galaxy?
That's the galaxy.
Yo, that actually is fire.
Wow.
Dude, AI videos are fucked.
Oh, Jesus.
Blood, love me.
Redbone, red boon, red boon.
You know how, you know how, you know how they're, you know how the
people, those like men go
insane and talk to Chachy Petit
like it's gone and they kill their whole family. She's just going to do that
to you. I know. Which is like, makes
it way more cool.
She had this up. She scrolled
to the next video is something like this
and then she just deleted the app.
You shamed her. You too. She deleted YouTube.
I do think YouTube is
deletable now. I think Shorts has made it deleteable.
No shit. Look, man, there's a lot of
fucking YouTube is the worst right now.
Michael was going, Michael's solution.
was crazy because he was
I think he was coding
he was making something for his phone
yeah he was trying to code something that would block
YouTube shorts from appearing on his phone
that only blocked shorts so he could still boot up
YouTube because he needs to see it for like work
but he couldn't open or view shorts
maybe it's the siren call
like it just doesn't work on my ears
maybe it's like when Fry has the
he's his own grandfather so he doesn't have
the brainwave in Futurama
so he's not affected by it but I I
I watch YouTube every single day on my phone
lunch with YouTube
sleep with a video going
and I've never, shorts do not enter my world
You never crap, well you know this is the real test
is when you open the app
and you're at the top of the recommended feed
Is it shorts first or long form videos first?
Here's the problem. I'll watch a short like once every couple weeks
like a fighting game short. It's like how to
how to do a leverless input with Ryu
and then they'll keep feeding. They really push it.
It makes me mad because they switch it
over, and it's like, I didn't want it to become like that.
Yeah. I wanted it to be my beautiful long form
videos. They're like, right away, you want the shorts, right? And I'm like, and if you do it on
browser, it does the same thing. And I just scroll past them. And the algorithm takes the
hint. I'm 35. Do you watch Toong, Tung, Tung, Tung, Sohur?
What is that, my goat?
Anyone? My fork going down the garbage disposal.
Zipper, can you look up Tung, Tung, Tung, Sohur?
Zipper.
Sipper's making grown noises.
He was grown.
Oh, it's so hard out there.
On YouTube shorts.
Yeah, shorts video, click any short, click any note, go back, go back, go back.
Is this like Benos?
Click literally any short.
He looks, he's, he's, oh, we got a short, we got an ad on a short.
Dude, it's a political ad.
It's a square ad.
It can't be real, man.
And it's, we're embedded into Google.
I don't like this.
What was the name of that guy who lied?
Gilles Cisneros.
Gilcesteros
Dude, those AI figures are all deformed
It's so gross
They're all facing away from the DJ
Wait, wait, pause
This is not the one I was thinking of
This is the guy though
This is what the youth is consuming
Look up the Rizzler Italian brain lot
BrainRot
We're just we're revisiting BrainRock quiz
This is kind of
making me realize like
kids just like repetitive
dumb shit
like this is what cartoons were
to like you know boomers
yeah this video
this video blew my mind
this made me realize
because this is the brightest
of the youngest generation
right audio
who is this
that's two for two
that's two
bombardillo coccadillo
that's three
cappuccino
assassino
baronina
cappuccino
that's six
They're all AI.
Oh, I appreciate you playing.
Yeah, get the fuck out of here, bro.
You just dab the 10 year old.
Yeah.
What the fuck is going on?
It's the Rizzler.
It's the Rizzler.
He's the brightest of the youngest generation.
And he's naming Italian AI brain rock characters
like you would, you know, starters on.
on a basketball team
and he's dressed
like 2010
Tower of the creator
yeah
he's got the pastel
cats on everything
gets on everything
the five panel
anyway that's
that's the YouTube short side
I feel like
YouTube shorts is what creates
that shit
that shit does not exist
on reels in TikTok
to the same degree
you're saying YouTube shorts
is worse than TikTok
it's the worst
yeah I don't understand
how
because it encourages that
no that shit's not
on TikTok
is like TikTok is
the one that starts the raptures today.
That's TikTok.
I think is it human input?
Like, is it, like, TikTok is people
talking to their phones and uploading videos?
TikTok is, like, people doing shit
and, like, TikTokers. And then Reels
is, like, random people capturing a video
of some crazy shit happening and maybe people dying
and then, like, slurs in the comments. And then
YouTube Shorts is, like, AI curated
videos from anonymous fucking channels to get your attention.
YouTube Shorts has the most AI.
Yes, I think so.
I don't know how to describe it
There's the one male AI voice
That's really popular for narration right now
Brian and maybe
And as soon as I hear that guy's voice
No matter what the content is
I click out
I'm like I can't
I don't want to listen to this
The nasty guy
Fucking take
Because it's always like a 15
Like or minute long video
How about you just fucking narrate it
Like just grow up and narrate it
Well the reason is because
SM7B costs money
You don't even need that
You don't even need this shit
fucking talk
they'll take it off man you're not gonna out
put it back gone
I have to it's actually
Nick's right I discovered a
like I've been doing this video where I do
different YouTuber sponsors
and Eric was sponsored
maybe he owns it but there's some company called
like clipper and you use it
either as an individual to pay for people
to clip your content or
if you want to clip other people's content to make money
and it's basically like
Fiver but just for clips
yes kind of and it's like it but it's
automated process where you submit your clip if it gets approved you get your shit scuba ryan is using
basically yeah yeah and if you know that's where you like see the stake logo it's kind of like that
you know but done through a more official process uh so i tried using it but as the clipper uh except
the issue is when you're new they don't give you a lot of opportunities so the only one was for like
the founder of the company and the only youtube videos he had are on his like 2,000 subscriber channel
about how it works.
So I just made a video
and I submitted it
and it was just footage of him
and then spliced with the jail footage
of Epstein
and...
You did this in your free time?
Yeah, I did this in my free time
and I haven't made a dime yet off of it
and has zero views on TikTok.
Dude, it's like when
it was like the CEO of Ford has a podcast
and he had like Siddee Sweetie on there.
It's shit like that
It would be like having to clip from that
And it's so much harder than clipping from stable
Rinaldo
Oh you know
Well Ron generates timeless moments
They call him the clip
He's fun for the whole family
Is he
For half your family
He's fun for a quarter
You're
He's fun if you have one person
In your family maybe who likes it
He's fun for one person
In your family
He doesn't hang out at Thanksgiving
Yeah
And who you want
For real screen
A young you say
You say
Wow, you came out of the game.
Where is it?
Where do you think Ron will be
when he's 35?
That's a great question.
I think about it all the time.
Why?
I think he'll be off the internet
because he'll have made enough money.
I think he'll be a D.J.
I think you're wrong.
I think you're wrong.
No, I think he'll be like a fucking
off the internet real estate guy.
Real, no.
He'll own a bunch of property.
Oh, but you know.
Okay, okay.
He'll be owned a bunch of property.
He'll have eight figures.
He'll have a fucking wife and kid.
And it'll be living in Florida.
All these people yearn for the minds, bro.
That's what I'm realizing as we as we get further along into this is that I that never,
it feels like most of the time that doesn't happen.
Like if you have a young career of some kind and you forfeit kind of that time period
in your life where you would have a more traditional social experience,
like maybe you would have gone to college and you wouldn't have been like rich and famous yet.
As soon as you forfeit that
I feel like when the steam starts running out
you try to go do something else
but they just fall back to something
that's adjacent or something to do
without putting entertainment again
because they don't really know where else to go
in his case he might always have enough money
that it literally doesn't matter
like Mario Lopez
he's just on a random fucking
like hotel only TV shows
well he's a hotel only TV show yeah
Yeah, like the tuby of like closed circuit
It'll be like America's best biker
But it's just like, I'm hosting it
Here it is, there's a bunch of bikers
That's just a guy who works though
I guess
That's just work
But he's saying like he's
What's Ryan Seacrest doing?
Working?
I don't know
He's still doing the same shit
Doesn't he still do the radio?
Yeah, he's still doing the radio
Yeah, he's still doing the radio
Kiss 1-08
That's like he's been his main shit for so long
I remember there was that quote from
From Brennan Fraser
Did I say this on the yard
or just with Nick
but it was like
he was saying
someone asked him
after the whale came out
because he's like
kind of back in action
and he's like
they were like
would you ever be in an Avengers movie
would you ever be a superhero
you're like yes
I'm an actor
I want to work
it's like that simple
yeah
I want work
this is my job
it's kind of funny
because it's like
but I think it's different
when you self publish
I guess like when you're like
a streamer or YouTuber
maybe I mean maybe you're right
in the sense that like
they don't care about
the success it comes with it
they just really love creating
but I think with Ron
he just fucking cared about the mullah
I think it's falling back on like familiarity
that's what I have
because like people still need like a work
or like a routine right
so the people I imagine in my head
right there's a
I know this seems like a silly example
but take hugs from melee right
yeah he he he
by the time he became like a professional gamer
he had like he I think he had like a CPA
he had like worked a normal job for a long time
and then he makes this like conscious decision
that he's gonna go be professional gamer,
try content and do this for like years and years,
years, right?
But when the steam out of e-sports
runs out, you know?
When the voodoo ranger.
When the voodoo ranger stops, I will say,
he did a good job.
He's number one ambassador for that shit.
He has like a background
and an understanding that,
okay, I need to go pursue
some sort of like new education
or like go back to regular work.
And I know what that's like.
and I'm gonna go do that.
Whereas I think if you spend, you know, age 16 to like 25,
you know, popping off on TikTok
and skipping like school
and like kind of that period of time
where you might be introduced to your first real job
and then the steam runs out.
Even if you have a bunch of money,
it's hard to imagine what you would even turn to.
So you just kind of settle and like go back to something familiar
even if it's publishing YouTube videos
to people that only 10,000 or 5,000 people watch instead.
Like rice gum.
I don't think he's doing that
Well he's making videos
Is he?
Every now and then
He had a kid though
He had a kid
Well okay there's an inherent shame
And not from my perspective
But I think from the world's perspective
Of like the young streamer right
And it's like
Everyone kind of knows
This is like this thing that shouldn't last forever
In the idea that if stable Ronaldo
I love how he's an example here
Is doing this when he turns 30
being stable Ronaldo
and hasn't sort of changed
to do like different content
or be a different type of person
there will be he will get clowned
in a way that is like what are you doing
and that's interesting
but I also think there's also
a side of this that in his case
right if he makes
a bunch of money and save some of it
and he's in that spot
and you know he's 35
still publishing the YouTube videos to no viewers
but he has a you know he's totally secure
in his future, you know, who gives
a shit? If you want to keep making, if you want to keep
making the videos for 5,000 people, like, you
might as well just not, that's the, you might as well
just be like woodworking in your garage at that point
because it's just like. But this is your wordworking.
Sure, exactly. Yeah, and it could be.
It could be. But I think it's more
like, there's also, see Nanners.
Yeah. People who just fucking get up and
damn leave. I think this is a big part of this
that's attention, though. Like, you
spend a lot of your life
having a fuck ton of attention.
Like, every time you look at your phone, if you
turn it away and turn it back you have more notifications
and then one day let's just say
that stops or it's slower
I think that you don't
just go great like I think you're like
oh shit
no one cares about me anymore
and like you seek the attention more
yeah do you do that I think that's
what I'm saying about Ron
and I think some people is that they
fucking they turn it and they go okay
and they move on yeah that's beast
I think that's awesome
anyone who can do that I think
I'm just struggling to think of any examples
I can think of people who have picked up
walked away, given it all up
that weren't older
when they started, that weren't already like in their mid-20s
when they started. And I think C-9ers was, wasn't he?
No. Am I wrong? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He started
I mean, for us, I guess he seemed
because he's older than us. I guess because he's always been older.
But he started to have been in his mid-20s when he started.
I think he was in his very low 20s.
Is he not like... How old is he now? How old C-9ers now?
He's got to be like 30-7, 37, 38.
Seiner's?
I'm saying
He's 41
But he started in like fucking 2000
2009
So I don't know the math
I'm not smart enough
16 years ago
So he was 25
That's kind of what I'm saying
There might be good answers to this by the way
But I'm just trying to I can't think of anybody
Who became like a gigantic streamer
Between the ages of 16 and 20
Who like
Well because not enough times
Shut up don't make good points
You're basically saying
No one's there yet
No, but a lot of people used to be
You know, you could be 16 to 20
Like starting
Starting 10 15 years ago
All these guys look one day all these guys will either
Turn 35 or they won't
They'll die
And what happens is everybody
It does, it does true
Everybody either dies or makes it to 35
And specifically one of them won't make it
And we can't tell you it's a dark secret
We can't tell it's a secret
It's funny because people will
like people in chat will say that like dude
you're 35 LOL and I'm like either you're
going to get here one day or you won't
so I don't know what to tell you anyway
like when you
in that those 10 15 years or whatever
they're going to look back on Northern Lion
and be like he figured it out
it's a schedule
yeah it's it's easy
it's entertaining it's influential
and it's conducive to a real life
and I think the Northern Lion
what do you call it structure or
like format is
kind of like the holy grail
of all of this.
Yeah, I think some people would be like that.
I think Adap will do that.
Those are the most interesting people to me
are the people that do figure it out, right?
Like the Dubbins and the Hank Greens
and the Philip DeFranco's
they like, they kind of...
Oh, sorry, you've just been loved in.
What was that?
Oldest fucking people on YouTube, that's so funny.
No, no, I think it's crazy for a different reason.
Lang Green and Philip DeFranco?
What? Older YouTubers who have had
long story careers.
And they've managed through thick and thin.
They've managed to maintain an audience.
So I'm still thick.
They've stayed thick through most of it.
My career is like half as long as all of them.
And they went in your store.
I think the difference.
I was blown away for a different reason
is because I don't see Hank Green going up to Jason the wean
and then started to talk like a 20 year old zoomer.
Yeah, but that's different.
And that's because you don't hang out with Hank Green offline.
Yeah, yeah, man.
It's like, hey, what do you think about robots?
He's like, nah, uh, you know...
Pussy Gladman.
That's how Hank Green talks off on.
Yeah, me and Hank Green listen to steel pulse in the car.
The galaxy is expanding.
What did he say, probably?
He says that shit.
Dude, Ludwig has this thing where, if I, like, lose in lane,
I think he really tries to, when I'm streaming,
he really, really tries to, like, salvage it.
Which I would argue, I'm just bad.
I'm not.
necessarily as tilted as he might think. I'm just going to do the same decision, no matter what.
But I'll like die and then he'll be like, I just want to fucking let you know in chat. I want to
fucking let you know. I fucking love you like a brother. I love you in ways that I don't love anybody
else. He'll say like really meaningful shit and I'll just read it and I'll just roll my eyes.
In any other context, I'd be like, this is really special. And then, and then he's tried to do other,
he's trying to give subs. I'll die in Lane and I'll say.
see five bomb come through and I'm like don't fucking
do that I do it to both
you guys I'm a I'm a big supporter
you are a big supporter it makes me
it feels good to know that my friends watch
oh yeah I'm watching I'm not
I'm not dropping five bombs I'm not dropping five bucks
we need some YouTube shorts on your games
please if someone wants to make them
the moments of the moments of you talking
to chat of course that's the most interesting part
I listen to the the Sona files
oh you like that I wanted to talk about that so bad I was actually
saving it for the prima. Yeah, that guy's great. Me and Shake play normals every night. It's our
little routine. We'll message you there than go husband and then he just runs it down.
It's fucking miserable. Oh my God, we did vaude review the other day because I got pissed
at him. Because he was drunk on Saturday night. He comes home. He's like, you want to play
a game or two? My drunk husband comes home. My drunk husband, and he's like feeling frisky,
and I'm like, okay. And we play a game, and he fucks up this moment in the game. And I'm like,
you fucking suck shake you i don't want to play with you anymore you come home drunk and i was
actually you hit it belly to belly no motion and he was like he was drunk but he's still playing
well because he's good at the game and he's like oh that is a 50 50 50 that is a 50 and you're
stupid he shake holds his ground pretty well and i'm like that's not a 50 50 you're an asshole so
we go into the vaude and we we start watching the replay he's like oh my god i'm so vindicated you're so
stupid. And I'm like losing. I'm mad. But he doesn't care. Shake will just tell me how it is. He's
like, I'm vindicated. This is how it is. You're fucking stupid. And Mike is just sitting there in the
call. Just like, did I do something wrong? Mike hates arguing. This is, this is fuck. He doesn't
have to care, right? Because he's master. He's in master. He's on his way. Diamond too. He's
getting there. I also, I said, I was like, I always defend you on this podcast because he keeps sending
me updates. He's like, I was like, when it comes to burgers, I'm your nemesis, but on, on league,
I always defend how good you are. I think it's funny because, like, I always defend you on
this podcast. And it's only in the context of League of Legends, but every other mention of
shake is like how you, how you like punch a picture of his face in your backyard on the punching
bag. Because it's objective truth. It's objective truth. Anyway, we're playing these games and
but yeah, we get to do a game with this guy and he plays soda. And he,
shakes bot lane and he's just like this is the worst player i've ever played with and i'm like oh whatever
it's a normal and then the guy is just really chatty and we're just talking it's back if it's not very
it's not flaming at all but he's so interesting in the game i'm like can i interview you after this he's
he's like everyone always says that and they never take me up on it and i was like of course he says
i promise i will take you up on it yeah we we pulled into a lobby and i talked to this guy and he was
it's on my youtube channel dude it's sad it's a sad video
I don't, I think it's as sad as people think.
It's a sad video, not because of his life.
It's sad because the fucking comment he left.
It's like a, he found it.
12 minute video.
He finds this video, yeah, because Slime told him about his channel.
I asked him if I could post it to.
And it's just 39 year old guy, and he called himself the Sona guy.
And he talks about, like, he talks about League very poetically.
He's like, he only plays Sona, which is not a very good character.
Yeah.
It's a very popular character.
but she used to be good and he goes he goes I went through war with her went through war with
would you leave your comrade if you went through war with your comrade season five and six we saw
shit I've never seen I do like I do like talking about season because that's a little how I feel
when I watch you guys play league it's like bag at season three it was different right we didn't have
all these new fangled tools like I literally like I see a scary future because he talks about it
and he's and he's like you know you guys are like what's your peak rank and he's silver now
And he's been playing the game like, fucking 10 years, 10 years, a lot of games based off his, his mastery.
And he, and you're like, what is his peak rank?
And he's like, I was going for gold promos.
And I, and my friends asked to play it with me.
So what do I say?
Yes, I'm a good friend.
And they're bad and I can't carry them.
But then I get to the final game.
And he's like, recalling this game from almost 10 years ago.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like it happened.
Yes.
Like it happened yesterday.
And basically the end result is he choked of,
Barron call and didn't win his gold promo and he has never hit gold and he talks about that
moment like it broke him and now he had a mental breakdown and now and now he refuses to try to
rank up but he said he was like I tutor master players he does say that which is crazy shake shake is
so funny because his volume is really low in the vaude for some reason and he's just laughing because
he's like we're we're not laughing at this guy we're just talking to him and shake's just like
what do you tell them?
Yeah, what do you tell about your players?
And it's such an interesting
response from Shake, who is
very good, and he's just listening to
a guy who's been sober for 10 years, be like, no,
you guys play completely wrong.
You should duo that guy to gold.
That'd be great. What did that guy,
you're getting, after this is over,
getting him to gold, saving that soda guy.
Saving private sona guy.
But anyway, the thing that is sad is
Zip, I don't know if you can pull up Slimes YouTube.
well I can read the comment oh yeah do you have it he said so he he goes the video and I pinned it he said hello everyone smiley face bracket reads the comments oh oh dear well it ended the way I figured by the way in this video I am not flaming the guy I just think you're not you're not interesting and I said I appreciate him and I was like relating to him because I'm old too and he's like well it ended the way I figured colon and then just a line yep and then he said at least some of them were
dot, dot, dot, close to being nice.
The internet really is what it is,
which is fine.
Though I wish I had more time in the interview,
I could probably explain things
in greater context.
More time?
And it's a lot of people just being really nice to him.
In the reply to him?
Yeah, I think most, like, there's a lot of comments.
Dude, this is so sad.
Can I, maybe actually, you know what,
I'm saving it for the pre-mail.
If you want to hear my thoughts,
let's say, come join us in the pre-mo.
Wait, why save it?
Huh? Because we don't have much time left.
We got damned like 15 minutes.
That's true?
Yes.
No, we don't.
Do you have five minutes worth of...
Just save it for the premium.
You know what?
We could...
League?
I realize, I realize that my life,
my life starts to crumble
when you guys get into league.
Them?
Yeah, because instead of League Week with you,
which we know is bad.
It's League Week with you two,
and it doesn't end.
And it doesn't end.
I haven't responding.
No, about the trip.
We haven't talked about it at all.
Like, like, he asked all day,
yesterday I'm reading this group chat where Aiden's like,
Hey guys, we'd just love to carve a tie to some time
because we don't do in the pod today to talk about the trip.
Because I already said, I already said, hey, I'm down for whatever we want to do.
No, it's all good. It's all good.
You, I'm waiting for the chancellors.
He asked to meet in person.
We'll meet in person. But I understand that it's a big chunk of our time.
And I myself am pretty burnt out.
I remember yesterday.
I understand you're in the war.
I get it?
I'm in a war with volley bear.
And I know he's one's in zero.
What are you talking?
You're in a war with yourself, brother.
Shut the fuck up,
Lovibair's not a part of this war.
I feel like a,
like a dog who just like takes the little
bits of food he could get right out.
Because it's like, it's actually in this order
in terms of a little bits of available time
that puppy gets while his papa plays league.
And it's like, with you, it was virtually none.
Even through, even through a crisis.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then with you, it's, it's, it's,
Slightly more than Ludwig gave during that time.
And then with you, it's the most out of the three.
So it's like, Papa is like,
Papa's like, it's better than it was in December.
Like, yeah.
Ludwig, I, you could tell how broken I am in general
because Ludwig didn't respond to us about like the time.
He was, he was okay about it,
but they like streamed a bunch.
And then you tagged me in Ludwig
because we didn't reply.
It's like, when are we doing the podcast?
And I replied as like, I don't, like jumbled English.
I don't care.
I saw it, because I looked at, I opened it up, because I went to the, I went to the magic castle where you can't use your phone in L.A., which is like this, I don't know, this mansion of magicians basically.
Yeah, you're an apathetic magic.
So I can't, you can't check your phone.
He's a pathetic fucking magic.
Wait, you have been to Magic Casas?
No, I haven't.
You haven't?
You haven't?
The phone's the most magic thing in the world.
It was also really, actually.
What the guy does is he bring it up on stage.
Oh, he goes, he goes, is this your phone?
I thought you were raw guessing that.
The first act actually did do that.
Really?
A whole, like, integrated phone thing he did.
Oh, my God.
He was the one I liked the least.
Scan my QR code.
Anyway, I opened this up in the evening to see, like,
just to make sure we're on for the,
morning and 5.53 p.m. which is like 455 minutes after your stream it ended and it's like a broken
i don't care like all spaced out and spelt wrong and then just whatever ludwig wants i i'm not
kidding after that session i just went i just laid in my bed not even my floor because it's a
sacred place i just laid in my bed and just stared at the ceiling it's so sad to he laid in his bed
it sounds like this is like what i feel like when i lose money in Vegas dude it affects my real
mood in my real life.
Yeah, genuinely, because this does happen to a degree with like, especially when I was pushing
for a mortal in Valorant, but this is why I stopped playing melee at the end of last year.
Really?
Yeah, I realized that when I started doing the Ludwig, the new Ludwig job, and I was like,
I'd work, and especially during that time last year, I was really stressed.
And then I'm playing melee, and I'm trying the hardest I ever tried.
I play every day.
I get coaching.
I'm going to tournaments.
I'm very emotionally invested.
and I realized that
oh I'm stressed all day doing like my job
and then I go do my like fun hobby
which is like maybe even more stressful
for me emotionally
harder than your job
is melee harder than your job maybe
psychologically
psychologically for
and I would like
so I'd spend all week like practicing
against Marth right
I'd practice shake Marth all the time
and I'd get like seeing all these like results
and like things come together and practice
and then they'd be like week straight
I'm vaudea and I'm doing all this shit
and then I go to fucking Verdugo
and then I lose to Y hat
and here comes Y hat
like last stop game 5
I'm losing a Y hat and Danny SF
and then I go home to my girlfriend
and I just walk in the room
was silent like a ghost
and I lay down in bed and she's like
did you have fun and I just like
yeah
yeah
dude my girlfriend will message me
she'll be like how is the riff today
and all dude I just message
I'm like I'm just a big fucking lolcow
on that
Aren't you?
I'm your big fucking low-cow boyfriend
who sucks and fucking is
and sucks and is a dumb bastard
and she's like, you're my lull-cow
and I'm like, that's so sweet
but I'm a fucking low-like, it doesn't help.
It doesn't help. I think that's the hard thing
is I realized that
the problem is what she asked me
if I had fun or like how did I do
like there's no, we had reached a point
in our relationship where she realized that
when I'm in that, when I'm feeling that,
there's nothing she gets said.
No, there's zero things that can be
Yeah. Actually, nothing is the only thing that could be said.
Nothing, nothing hits pretty good.
Nothing gets amazing.
I dead ass think.
I dead ass think one day with me, I could fix you.
You cannot play a lane, bro.
You are a child.
It's not about that.
It's not about that.
I am like the Sona guy.
I can train master players.
I'm not master.
I can just do it because I know.
I know.
I don't move like I used to, but I know.
Whatever.
Well, I'm eight games down as of talking about this on today.
Who knows what will happen today?
Maybe I concede.
Maybe Nick flies.
Wait, eight games down?
Like eight games behind you?
Yes.
I'm eight games down.
Wait, it's got to be more than that.
Damn.
No, it's not.
It's not four per row.
What are you at?
What are you at?
I'm 10 games down.
Podcast update.
What are you at?
I'm at Silver 2.48.
Silver 2.48?
That's 10 games.
I'm in Silver 4.0.
Dude, I can fix you.
I don't think it's, there's no time to fix me
Yes there is, there's so much time
What has to happen genuinely to end this
What do you, what has to happen right now
For you to go to bronze? Do you have to lose
One game? Just one? I hit my
thresholds, you know how it doesn't let you go to bronze?
It protects you. Do you only get one buffer game? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You used to get two
I don't think it's a random amount, it doesn't tell you
Anyway, maybe I'll just send it Diana mid, who knows
I mean, the thing is so volatile, like if I go one
in fucking six and he goes
six and one.
It's a swing.
We're back.
Like, I think he's actually
above me in that world.
Guys, we'll see what happens
as of recording this.
I may already be dead or raptured.
But we'll see you on the podcast
Prima where Aiden will give us
thoughts on that Sona guy.
