Do you guys know how fast you were going? Oh, no officer. Does anyone know how fast you were going? You got to spank it out of me. Officer, you have to spank the info. Officer, do you want me to put my hands on the hood of the car? I want to put you, okay, this is all the three in the car. Once you start row your titt together,

want you to just play with it. Just play with it. You're real sick. Do you back on this? You're going to have to spank each other. I'm good. I'm good. They're just going a little fast.

Two sexual officers. I don't see him squeezing them together. I'm trying. They're just small. You see my partner. I understand. My partner here, you understand.

You guys know how fast you're going, by the way? If I put the microphone between them. Do you know how fast you're going? How long do I have to do this? And no, because, like, how do girls even do that?

Yeah. They won't stay. Well, I think, I think they're equipped. What kind of vibrational energy do we have today? Can we answer that question? We're all four of us

Dreadlock Rasta, yeah? Yeah, dreadlock Rasta, Bumba Kla. I'm operating at like a high energy. Like, imagine you you drink a red bowl and then took a Benadryl. Wow. That's where I'm at. You know?

Because like, I'm like, attention wise, I'm like here. You know, but like eyes and body, I'm aching. Your reactions are like, yeah. And it's like, whoa. You know? Nick's been loving the World Cup. You remember, how you guys just make fun of me for the Olympics.

Olympics come around because he's keep with the Olympics. Nick is keeping up with the World Cup. Yeah, watching you. He has like... I didn't say anything was wrong with it. Well, I just said factual he's keeping up with it. And you guys got defensive really quick, by the way. No, I'm not, wow.

Whoa, whoa. Oh my God. He's not on trying. He's been getting upset lately. Have you guys noticed that? Dude, he was literally in front of the team. I'm not kidding. He's like, yo, where's messy?

He's looking at the TV. He's not talking to any of the other. He's like, he's like, who's messy. And then he shows him and he's like, woo. This was like 10 minutes ago. And it was a joke, but it was very funny because it was for him. In the way that I say things, right? Messy was on the telly, bro.

I just know, we do like a couple meetings every week. And we usually do them by the couch area, which is in front of the TV. And the TV's usually off or like displaying someone's laptop. Yeah. And recently, Nick's, just sitting there watching the World Cup. It's like full-volume World Cup. It's like talking to talk over it.

We're having a meeting next to him. It was on already. There were the streamer games meeting. And I think it was our producer, Michael, who just works on that project with us. It was like leading the meeting, calling things out. But then the commentators of the World Cup are just screaming in the background.

And then every time something, every time, I think it was the England game, every time England made a play, everybody would turn around at the TV. They're not listening to you, dude. This is fucking. boring. Yeah.

I'm watching the woke up. Me and the editor meeting and being like, yeah, show you go do that. Nick's be like, that's offside.

That's offside. In Nick's defense. Look at that. Dude, they got to get, they got to do something about flopping. I actually believe that.

They gave the guy a yellow for fake flopping. Yeah, there's a risk. They did. I missed that. What team? It was like early in the tournament. At the US game.

Oh yeah. We were there live. It was live at the game. And then we were conceders. We had no idea what was happening. The Paraguayan player. Here's my beef with soccer. Okay. So if...

Please. You've watched soccer for a long time. That was my defense for him just liking the Olympics because it's what you're supposed to do is like a human. You've liked football for a long time and I give you that. And I don't like giving you shit. Watch. I played. My sister played. She was a lot better. She got money to play. I watched. I watched

Olympics my whole damn life. Really curling. Yes. Literally every single Olympics I tune in. I'm gripped. I used to fucking curl my toys in the living room My mom told me a year What? Give me a year, I'll tell you where it was

1999 There was no Olympics here Fucking actually The thing is he's probably right Because like the odds are so in his favor I don't think an odd year 2018 winter Olympic I don't care about winter

You just we just talked about curling What the fuck you do care about I don't know he brought up curling I never said you just said you watch curling But you just said yes I said I watched Olympics You said yes I said curling you said yeah

To roll it back. 2012. Huh? That was a really good year. Can I get to my fucking beef with soccer, bro? Anyway, your beef with football. Okay. London.

So, like, my beef is that when a player gets fucking, like, fake fouled and then they flop like crazy. The refs are kind of like, yeah, it's a foul. And the commentators are like, ah, what can you do? Fucking, no, you don't have the technology for this. It plays like an instant replay. They're clearly flopping. It's only the audience can see the replay.

But then when it's offside, it does like the Drake's. Sprite commercial. Yes. Where it's like Yeah. I have an offside mathematically calculated fucking this is a rule

here it is. It's like I need similar technology for fouling. I felt like an 80 year old seeing his first smartphone when they went into the 3D view and I'm like they can do that? Yeah they turn in a GTA character.

I was like what the fuck? They did that right away. Technology is so crazy. Passive thing you can do wrong in soccer. I want like everyone wears like a monitor and if they get hit with a certain level of Force.

I like this. The alarms go off. Maybe like a skeletal like implant. Yeah. Messy doesn't have to wear one. Sports do this thing where they like, we have the tech. We have the tech to track every single thing. Like a robot can determine everything perfectly.

Yeah. But we don't. Except for love and art. But that and I think. And then we were starting to pay them to do it for us. And I think. We tried. And I think in sports.

Right. They also tried to defend. And they said, do the robot didn't need to do it all. We should have a human fuck up some of it. Yes. And that is an actual argument. I remember because some guy was, I had a speech class in college and we had to pick a topic to talk about and his was why we need real refs and not robots in the NFL because sometimes

fooling the ref is part of the game. Yeah. And at the time, I was like a very young sort of rules-oriented, you know, atheist. And I said, what I'm talking about? This is the game, but now as I grow older, there's a little bit of spice and the idea of like, sorry, ref, you were looking at my car. according to you, ref. Pulling the rep's pants down. It's very antithetical to video games. Because video games, you can never pull one over. Yeah, you have to implement it with R&G.

Oh, ref looked at cock 6% of time. You got a better ref for the Cleveland game. He looks at cock 2% time. I have an idea for Counterstrike. Every single Counterstrike lobby has a ref. Players can cue to ref. That's so viable. Oh, my God.

And, yep, they're racing. Whoa. Now, but even my ref is saying, the end. What does that say about the state of the game? And then Gabe Duel's like, well, he's got to, someone's got to be able to in the lobby to make sure. He's saying it to say, don't say, and then

he says what they shouldn't say. By the way, the steam deck is $1,500, or the Steambox, or whatever. I've been enjoying it. I think my, dude, we're going to get lit. It's going to be another 70 Reddit threads. They don't know shit about sports. All I do is listen to them all day, all every single

week for five years. I hate them. It's like, it's, what? You don't have to read the comments all the time. Oh, I just read some of them. Most people like the show, bro. Most people like it. I agree. I agree. I agree that, but that is the case.

And you know what? They even like when you talk about sports poorly. You're the one that gets lit up the most about sports. Because I'm always willing to be like, I don't really know, guys. Chill on me. And you'll say some shit and they'll be like, Ludwig is a dog and he needs to be shot in the head. It's crazy. And you know what?

And then it's me looking out the bus at the Dodgers game. And it's them fuming. writing up the Reddit post. It's true. Because I'm just at the Dodgers game watching and having a good time. Yeah. I don't care if I don't know. Hackling.

But my take... But my take... This is my take that's going to put me on, hopefully, the bus, and I'll look at something else, is that it's such a fucking boring game to watch. And it's more fun to play. Probably melee doubles is my comparison. Wait, what? He thinks...

Football is like melee doubles. I think it's really boring to watch. I like watching whenever you guys throw shit on, I'm like, I'll sit and watch that game. Soccer's hard for me. It's like a lot of nothing. And maybe some people like baseball is a lot of nothing. I think it's a lot of something. Dude, you know what's funny is if you start to view soccer like a League of Legends Lane,

I think you'll enjoy it more. How so, please. Well, I think a lot of soccer is... Who's Diana? It's Diana in this tournament. Who's Diana with a night? Diana's Morocco. Okay.

That doesn't sound good. No, it's good. It's okay. I mean, they're doing it's great. They're doing well. I mean, great. okay compared to expectations

and like this not like Haiti no no like Haiti no Haiti is Haiti is your your AFK Shako okay

okay I watch Haiti I watch Haiti get vivisected and I was like damn that looks hard Haiti hasn't been able to play a home game in over five years

oh that's okay yeah it's okay so Diane is running she's mid yeah and and and there's taken space, and they have possession of the balls for every momentum base,

and they're keeping possession of the ball, and they're slowly moving up the field together. Okay. And this is kind of like in Lane. You push the tower. You push the tower. But then guess what? Wave bounces. Other team gets the ball. Now they're pushing tower. But sometimes, sometimes

you get a solo kill and dive under tower. And that's pretty lit. That's hype. But how many kills are you getting in Lane? Maybe three? Maybe otherwise it would be crazy. Yeah, it's not going to be a 10-10 fucking bloodbath because then every other teammates can be like, what the fuck happened there?

It's so funny. I said this in front of Nick. He used a different analogy to explain it to me like an autistic kid who only plays video games. He's like, bro, it's like one side of the field is the bomb side A and the other is the bomb side B and everyone went A but then the bomb is over on B so they all got to go to B.

I'm explaining how like why you have to like back past the ball to make a lot to make. space. So you cause CTs to rotate. Can we just enjoy the sport? Okay, Messi's like Timo, who it was just sitting in a bush all game, doing nothing. But then he popped out the bush and gets a fucking penta and ends the game. Really? It's like, wow.

Timo, he's the best. Can you verify this? I mean, he can be anyone, bro. He can be A of K donk with the Dagle. And then he just kills all five. And then I was like, whoa, fuck yeah. Yeah, I will. just giving it a lot of time, and every time

it's on, I'm like, well, when's the fucking commercial start? Do you have a sport you like? Yeah, I like all the sports do you guys watch. Except soccer is, like, it's, I'm chewing. That was an Aiden answer, by the way. I'm chewing. I like all the sports you guys watch. And you have a t-shirt? I like what you like. Likes what you like. Uh, yeah, I like basketball.

I like, well, like watching basketball football and baseball. It's all fun to me. Okay, okay. It's fine. Yeah. You like it? I like it. I like it. It's great. You like it. To each their own and to what own you like, I like it.

Let me know if you're going to start liking it less. Yeah, I'll be on it. I will stop liking it. Do what you don't like it anymore? I don't like it anymore. It's different now, right? For sure different now. You know what I think people like soccer just because they know a player or two?

Like if you, imagine one of your friends like joined like a rec league and invited you to watch him. You like any sport. Yeah, of course. If you're friends on the team. But to the viewer, Messi's their friend. Oh. He's like their uncle. He has the most friends.

He's got the most friends. It's like Shohei Otani's his friend. Exactly. I don't view his hat. I don't view his friend. Look at his hat. What? What's on it?

What does it say? And you know what? I don't know. I don't know. Yeah, I don't know. It could be anything. Oh, you know. Oishi.

Dodgers. Yeah. Oh. That sounds so many characters. Dajas. Dyski. Burn. When Monkey Duffy Luffy goes to the game.

He will July 7th. And he will catch. He will catch. the home run ball with his... He actually pitched. He can't... Oh, really. I'll give...

Soccer's probably one of the best sports to watch animals play. Animals play it. Against each other? For animals to play basketball, you have to like animate them. But soccer... You know when they have the puppy bowl

on before the Super Bowl? It's not real football. What are we doing? Yeah, it's not real football. But the puppies... They play... They play a beautiful game. They play the beautiful game. Puppy ball, but you have a real ref.

Dude, again... No, off-size again. Dude, betting like $60,000 $60,000. puppy bowl. That's like getting pissed, throwing the remote and shit. Throwing my phone because my call she bet on the puppy bowl didn't go. Because you're getting mean at your girlfriend all night.

If you think about it, getting upset and swatting the dog has a much higher probability. Spot towards ACL, dude. We can't go to Hawaii, babe. Oh, no. We can't go to Hawaii. Sorry. But to go back, I don't think it's friends. But I think a lot of people want the thing that they like to be the best thing.

You know? Sure. Like people doing streaming, they want their streamer to have a lot of CCV so they can be, it is weird. They can feel more proud

of the thing that they like. Yeah. And I think people who like messy and think he's the go want him to continue to be the go so they can have more evidence of fuel that he's the go. And like me,

I like Joe Otani. I want him to be fucking Cy Young winner, NL MVP five time, six time, three-time World Series winner. Maybe he would love him. Maybe he puts a little tongue in it.

No, isn't that some tongue? It's not like that. But maybe he tongues Yamamoto after the game. No, no, no. At the end of a business trip. And it's Ludwig and it's Shoah and they're like all tired.

We're doing business. And it's a double, it's double bed in the hotel room. And Ludwig lays down. Yamamoto, are you cold? Instead of Shohei laying down in his bed, Shohei lays down in Ludwig's bed. And there's no,

all night, no contact. Well, how else is you going to eat the sushi off of the water? That's not what I want, bro. That's not what I want. Maybe we're in Alaska. Although it was buying a bag. Maybe on Alaska. a fucking wild trip and it's fucking cold out. And it's like the sleeping bags have a hole in it.

Oh, fuck. Not again. Look, show me if you didn't get my sleeping bag, bro. I'm naked in my bag. I made a hole in the sleeping bag. I got my worm out in my bag, bro. I didn't make it, but it was in there, but I made it.

It smells like a dead rat in here, bro. But you can get in, bro. There's a hole in the sleeping bag again. Can you fill it? Ew. Ew. Yo, hey, bro. You can I put the hole in my sleeping bag, bro.

Just put duct tape over it. But I want to get in. want him to be the greatest there ever was. Bro, I think he's on the way there. I think he's done there. Mike Trout still plays baseball, huh? Mike Trout does still play baseball. He's got to be old.

Wash. Mike Trout is somewhat old. Is he washed? He's having a great year. What? He's having a great year. No. A bounce back year.

It's cool to have... Yeah, he is. I'm just making it up. He's having a great year. I want to be intact. If you have a fish anywhere in your name, I feel like you're destined to play baseball. I think he's a top five hitter right now.

If you have a fish anywhere in your name, you're destined to play baseball. Yeah. You know, and wear Oakley's and have a pretty bad Tinder profile. Dude, I can't find it. Mike Bass, yeah, that works. I wish it would come up faster.

Is that baseball player? No. Oh. See, I would have put it up, though. That would have fucking crushed. Mike Eel. Have you guys watched recently the, it came up again a little bit ago,

but it's the Bradley Martin slapping Steho Ronaldo. It features and kind of an underappreciated moment in that video is a generational shirt tug from Lacey. Yeah, there's a the laced her tug. I remember this actually.

It's, and you're like, wow. Like the fat guy tug? Yes. After his friend gets slapped by a larger man, he tugs to make sure. It's like when you dodge a flashbang IRA like in a computer. You know, it's like you're just kind of used to. It's more like you're watching your friend

play CSU on Discord and then you dodge his flashbang IRA. Oh man, but you go and find it for yourself. It's a bygone era. Well, look up, Stable, Ronaldo facelap. It's hard to find. What? How's that hard to find? Dude, he's paying to get it removed, bro. Not even because he got slapped and it's embarrassing,

because lace is the one paying. You know? The shirt, oh, yeah. He takes it. Obviously, we've seen this a million times. He's bald. He slaps Ron. Oh, it's some TikTok edit.

It might take the, it takes Lacey out of the frame here, which is unfortunate, so. Is that a coincidence that this didn't get removed? Yeah. And laces out of the frame, bro. And thank God that guy was up there to react because I was wondering how to feel.

That shirtless guy with an SM7B being like, yo, what the fuck? Dude, people are raking, I'm sure everyone's seen this, but people are raking off having TikToks that are just like their face like this big in the bottom corner. And it's just, they're not even reacting to the video, they're just going like...

Nice. Jason Derulo. And they're putting on everything. Jason Derulo's doing it. Yeah, this is Jason Derulo method. Dude. Oh, we got the full one. All right, let me see the shirt tag.

Okay, big slap, obviously. And he's like, damn, really? honestly he takes it like a man Lacey's stance and his shirt, and you saw it. There's no, no, no, no. There's a shirt fluff. It's not a tug. Have you thinking of the one before? He tugs before the fun. That's what happened. That's a fluff. No, no, he's teasing it. He's teasing it. Yeah, but it's not a tug. It's a fluff.

No, he knows we're watching, bro. I'm sick and making fun of lace on this show. I don't ever make fun of them. Do lace is a pillar of the streaming world? I think he was cooler back then. Lace was cooler back then? Yeah. No, for one, he wasn't cool. He also didn't have tap caps. He didn't have tap caps, but I think he was more interesting as the guy that looked like one of those pit bulls with the ears cut off. Dude, too much. What?

Too much, bro. Can I tell you that? I'm like the speed giff. Too much. And I want to, and I want to, Lace, I know you're watching this. He's genuinely a huge fan. That's why he's like weird. Generally, literally streetless, this will end.

He's going to be playing Balotro or Street Fighter with you. your stream on the side. Yeah. You're gonna watch a lace today. And let me tell you, bro, the Bahamas arc has been

kind of mid, but I know you're trying and it's all good. What's he doing in the Bahamas? Content. My bad. I'm sorry.

What the fucking kind of question? Holy shit. So you asked me some that's a fucking stupid. I don't know. I don't know.

World Cup match. Yeah. He's playing the World Cup. Maybe you're being tucked in by a bad one every night, a different bad one every night.

Sorry. I'm sorry about that. He's loyal. That's what you think. bro, lace, dude. Lace's loyal, bro. Lace fucks when he pleases. He's a hawk. Lace fucks when he's

fucking talking about me so much. What is this? They fucking like when he rolls into the fucking bed like Ramos. He's not mad anymore. It'd be like skinny. Dude, Skinny Rammis is a good idea for a skin. That'd be awesome. Stinny Kragis?

The only thing I don't like about Lacey and I really don't like it. What, bro? Is he tweets out maybe every two weeks seriously locking in this time, giving $10,000 to someone who likes his tweet, I'm going to hit 100, whatever, 80 pounds by insert date two months away.

And he tweets that out maybe seven times a month. Oh, that frustrates you. And it frustrates me. Hasn't he lost a bunch of weight, though? Hasn't he successfully done this? He loses his way that I think he gained a bit back and I think he wanted to lose it again,

but he puts out these fake fucking fake calls. He's a fake demon. You are not, you are. Just the fuck on. What the fuck is you talking about him? You're a fake demon pussy. What? Don't fucking talk about him like that.

I'll fucking Charlie Horse your ass. No, don't please. Come about fucking phase Lace ain't no hit him. Shut the fuck up. I like his ex account. You know, wrong in them. Crowley. You gotta give Lace cred

because he's one of the few big openly bisexual streamers. I think that's a lot of power to him right there. You gotta get live bread. Came out. I don't know. I came out. And I think that he's the,

personally. Personally, that means a lot to me as someone to look up to. That's beautiful, bro. Think about that. Yeah, you got someone, because you see yourself in media now. I see himself, see myself.

And before that, you were underrepresented. Yeah. And you said, you were looking at Woody from Toy Story, like, I don't think Woody's bisexual. There's no way. And even if he is, like, what does that mean to me? I saw Toy Story 5. Really?

Yeah. Wait, you saw it early? I saw it. What do you mean? It's out? It's out. It came out Thursday night. Oh, my God.

Is it good? It's good. like to talk about it. It's the third best. I want to talk about one thing. Third best. What's your number one? Is it four?

Three. Oh. It's four is two. No. Four's on top three. Four is the last. Four is an amazing movie. Four is the worst choice for a movie.

We've done this before. Fucked. For new heads, we've done this like sex. We know we yelled at a good movie. Four is a wonderful movie. I think this is fair because I think they're all good. They're all good. What the fuck is this?

What are you talking? What is that? Doing the candy to your list? So he likes the. Doing the candy tier list? I don't know. They're all just delicious. I couldn't be much.

It's like you don't even fucking know me because I like what they like. It's true. It's confusing to pick a one that you don't like there. Well, okay, I'll tell you why four is the worst. It's a, it's a, it's a spinoff. It's, uh, it's not canon. It is.

Doesn't matter. It is a, it is a beautifully animated. It's a beautiful movie. Side plot. I don't care that it's a short story. It's more beautiful than the novel. That's where I do. I disagree.

Yeah, you need some cohesive, grand thing because you're an anime watcher, and you need like 700 episodes, but I like the beautiful piece for what it is, the start and end. You like the vignette. Toy Story 4 is a beautiful movement. I like, I like that Toy Story came out when I was born. Yeah, that's crazy. I like that they're hitting themes that I hit through my life. Okay.

I mean, I was five. Would you argue that Toy Story 5 is the best piece of media so far on the new age of technology? It's like iPad Baby, right? That's the idea is like the toys versus the iPads. With that commentary, it's saying a commentary, but it's a side commentary. No, I get it. Yeah, I think the word screenagers is probably more impactful. Okay.

It is good. Every time you say it, everyone knows what you mean, and the first time they hear it, they're like, wow, it's funny. You can also call an adult a screenager, and it's funny. Screenager is definitely number one, but it's probably top five. What's your list? Wow. Three? One.

5, 24. I would be really interested if that matched your list the first time we did this. Two's good. I think he's been consistent on this. Two's good, but two's also to me a bit of a vignette.

It is a bit of a side plot. Two's the worst one. Two is... Two is like, I think the sleeper pick. I think two's better. I could see four above two. Four is a sleeper pick. Thank you, bro.

It's literally a sleeper pick. Yeah, because I think inherently we are against, with IP that old, we are against making the newest one the best one in general. Maybe it's a super pick in this group, but I think if you were to look at like commercial sales. If the Matrix 4 was universally loved, people would still be like, that's your favorite one. Because it's the most recent.

That's just the most recent. It's way after the other ones. That's fair. I think four, it's tough because in a vacuum, it is really good. But I always felt like three should have just been it. Like they should have ended it with the way three ended. Four shouldn't exist. Yes.

And then it does. Yes. And despite it's not supposing to exist, it excels. And that's also interesting. Nick, you should make a movie, bro. Oh, yeah? Yeah, you should make a movie, bro. It's time now?

I think it's time to lock in this summer. Okay. I think actually this lines up exactly with your clock. What's that mean? Remember, I was like, I'll make a movie. You're like, it's not time for a movie. Yeah. You're like five years away.

I think that was like five years ago. Okay, you're ready now. Yeah, I'm right. It's, yeah, it's not with the... Do you have a subject? Huh? Do you have a subject? Yeah.

Well, let's hear it. Pitch me. Because I'm a director and you're a fucking famous producer. I got you. Sorry I'm late, by the way. Shot opens. With lace. It's a lady.

She's working at a factory. Yeah. Okay. All right. Yeah, yeah, that's okay. We stand on the shoulders of giants. Here, I got it. So the bit there was.

It's four dreadlock Rostas. So we're on the street and we're, we're on the sidewalk just loitering around because we're teenagers. And we don't have anything to do in it's summer. A steel drum paints the scene. And the steel drum is playing. Someone stole our radio. We can't live without music. Life without music. I can't go on.

Without music isn't life at all. And if a Ross didn't got no music, a rost is basically dead. And so we... That's the tagline. And so we end up finding the guy who took the... And he's in a flashy car. He's smoking a big fat cigar. And we find him.

And we rip him limb from limb. Yeah. And we fucking kill him. Yeah. We hook up a car battery to his leg. Bigs. Lost Rasta. Big fucking blocky metal letters. Bullet holes flying through it.

It's like in the trailer, it's like two minutes of bullets going through the words lost Rasta. But like red and yellow light is coming out of the holes. And you slowly lose what it says. There's so many holes have littered this. And there's like a horror rendition

of like a steel drum playing like the Girls Gone Wild theme. No, it is the girls. gone wild thing. It is that because we could afford it because it's so old and probably from a CD somewhere. We just used it so it's the girls gone wild theme. This is good.

Let me pitch you another movie. It's Saw 12. We're skipping some. Yeah, we're just going to go further up. And we have to be And fucking Claude is fucking Jigsaw now. Bro. And he's punishing us. They're almost I don't know. You know? There's 10 saw movies.

my god, there's 10? It was crazy. I had this thought because there's an old Ryan Higa video where he makes a parody Saw 12 trailer. And it's from like 2007. And it's like we're almost there. We're almost at Ryan Higgas.

Who's the actor that plays Jigsaw? I think it's a puppet. I don't know his name. Is he still alive? He's still alive. Tobin. His name's Tobin. His name's Tobin.

Yeah, it's like Tobin Bell or some shit. Can you look at them up? zipper. I've seen every song movie. Really? Yeah, there is. Wow! He's old... Oh, he looks awesome. He was in an episode of Seinfeld as a guy who runs a record shop. I saw it, I was, I was blowing away. And he's in Sopranos. Who's he in Sopranos?

I don't remember. I'm Tony. He's done a lot of shit though. I'm Tony Soprano. That man is 83 years old. Yeah, that's a B. Dude, he's awesome, dude. What do he look like as a teenager? Or like, as like a, like a, a, like a, young adult. Look up Tobin Bell-Sinfeld is great. Because he's still pretty old.

I like what an old person plays an old person, but like they've been playing an old person our whole lives, and it's like, damn. I think about that. And I think about, you know, I'm getting older. Is my time up? And then I think I can just be an old guy. You can be an old guy. Wow, look at the pony, dude. Isn't that sick, bro? Look at that picture of him with the fucking Funko in the left side.

He looks like the grandpa that ate paint. He looks fucked up and paint. He looks fucked up. that's eating grandpa. Dude, he looks exactly like him. That's a crazy hole. Oh my God, dude. The paint probably didn't taste that bad. Doesn't it look good on his lips?

It says credit for it. Did you Google? bones again. Nick, do me a favor. Can you get Rocker Money? Don't get it confused with with Google. I don't know if you're going to have it. Yeah, but, but you got to let Rock and Money help reach your financial goals faster. Try for $0.00 at RocketMoney.com slash the yard. If you need to find out how many bones are in the human body, you don't open Rocket Money. You probably need to open a different part of your phone to find that out.

facts about bones. I've been impressed. I feel like Nick, lock in, rocketmoney.com slash the yard, bro. I could do that. I don't think it even goes that low. I heard you. I listened.

O-fish implies a like a ignorance to my steps. There's intentionality behind it. So you trudge and you plod. You sloth. Maybe like a sort of like a Gears of War guy with a big chest armor. Or an angry childhood boy.

Ah. And they would and they would plod to their room. You have intent. They don't, but they don't do it officially. This isn't good. I feel like this is a, was I asked to bring good energy today?

Like what do you do? To be fair, it's implied, but you're right. I was asked to tell my energy. you should be bringing good energy for the show we do. But instead you're a boy. I can tell you why. Please.

It's your fault. Because Arasta doesn't stole his music. It's a great song. Because Arasda stole my music. What are you talking about? Intro movie. It's called the beat off. A boy in his room

starts banging different sounds together. Better. Nothing. No, go on. I like it so far. The beat off opens to a boy In his room In his room

Vanging different objects Yes Ding dong dong dong Ding dong Goes downstairs Mother shot his father in the head Whoa He watches it happen

Mother looks boy in the eyes Throws one recorder down And she says Give this police shoots herself in the head He goes upstairs He goes finally He uses the device

To record the different beats And noises he's made He tapes over Yeah he's pretty much Like fully nonverbal Didn't even really understand never happened. But great, another object. Taken by child services

to, you guessed it, Jamaica. All he has is his recorder. It's like the good doctor. It's the good producer. He's like an autistic white kid in Jamaica. Making the best regatron. The best reggae in the world. No, I love the idea of all this.

And then it just cuts to m.d.R. in the booth. No, they will knock it. No, okay, they will knock it. The movie goes like 20 years later, and it's M.D.R. He said, don't play with me. Yeah. So this is, this is the good roster. Are we funding this?

Slime's fault? We are we funding it? First off, are we funding my movie? The question isn't if it's how much would you like? That's a good question. A budget for this. I think we can do it's 70K. No questions to ask.

$70,000. Low budget. Who were we casting? Wow. We got Indy Navarretti. Yeah, she's on board. She's in, bro. No talent from Turkey.

No talent from, we can't afford it. We can't afford it. It's too expensive. It's too expensive. You said something that was my fault. I was with bated breath. Oh, my energy. Yeah, well, of course.

It's your fault. Well, it's fair. Why's it his fault? Well, I have a show match against Tyler this week. And I, you know, slime's been chirping on me to practice. And so I, like, every day. I booted up. I booted up my practice session.

I have an alt account. and I showed a character I shouldn't have. You showed your, I showed my JP. It's so gross. An accident? Yep. Well, no, because I had it logged in and I didn't switch Steam accounts

because I have an alt account. You blew the whole operation? And now I have Tyler 1 every day grinding against JP. Dude, you are fucking so fuck. Because I get updates from Tim and Tim's like he's driving against JP. It's fucking over.

And I'm like, I know Tim. You were so close. And now, and now I know. need to switch? You're gonna switch again. He's practicing JP. It's funny because... You just gotta get...

A third character's entered to the ring. A third character. Ingrid. With the week to go? With five days. Five? Maybe.

Five days. Just stick with it, bro. Don't get a third character. Let me just tell me shit about this. Just keep playing JP. I am the street fighter player among the house in the office and I'm like, I'm always like,

hey, what are you saying? Get on the fucking riffed together. What's that T-S and say? Your control is so weird. He'll just have a coffee. He'll just walk out. And I'm like, I'm trying. You're going to prove cosmonaut Markey right, dude.

My fucking guy. It doesn't matter. He's my guy, bro. Yeah, I did watch a couple of FGC videos. One had 17 views. And it was why Tyler won versus Ludwig is a horrible show match. And he brought up a lot of good points. I was like, you know, unfortunately,

he doesn't have the audience it deserves, but. So yeah, Tyler fires up, he goes, he's like getting people to play JP against him. And then he's, he actually starts to go like 0 and 15 and I'm like, we have kids. Okay. Then he keeps playing. Then he keeps playing. He starts to learn some things. But like, that's a 015.

That's a first to 10. Imagine that was you. Oh my God. I'm so mad. A 10. God damn it. But it's funny, I was watching him. And he, there, he like, a guy came into his chat after beating him.

and was like Gigi's smiley face and Tyler just banned him. And it was like very unceremonious. Yes. And this guy went on a subreddit specifically for getting mad at Street Fighter and posted it. A Street Fighter hate subreddit. Yeah. And there was like a huge thread and Tyler's just reading it. He's like, this is insane.

There is a really funny comment. It is just talking shit on him and they basically wrap up and they surmised their entire hate comment on his play style. And he's miserable probably in his personal life. And he's able to afford. all of his things thanks to Daddy's money. He said Daddy's money. It tells me he's like,

what the fuck are they talking about? Yeah. It's so crazy. They're really schizophrenic, seriously. The hate the haters. Yeah. They said Daddy's Money got him there. Tyler won.

Tyler won Daddy's Money. Tyler won Daddy's money. This is the thing is when the when the schizophrenic haters can't even, it's just, you could just use the truth sometimes. It's like when they come,

it's like the one thing you can't do when you come for Anthony is say Ludwig gave you everything you just can't you can't do it as soon as you say as soon as you say that I would make the argument it's like okay you clearly know nothing I saw that this weekend actually oh my god bro and because I woke up to a Twitter thread I was tagged in

this was oh okay so tell me what happened the street fighter is a is an amazing video game Street Fighter six why are you beefing with the city of Vancouver Dude, it wasn't the city of Vancouver, and I'm tired of this shit. I don't like... San Kyle. What?

Zen Kyle. He'll die for whatever. He's bored. Kyle would kill whoever I asked me to kill him for, to do it. Dude. He offers preemptively. I fucking, I'm playing Street Fighter. It's three in the morning.

I'm 1390 with Akuma at this moment. It's looking bad. That's rough. Yeah. Really, 1500? You've fallen. I'm with Akuma. I'm learning a new character and he's really hard and I'm not good at him and I suck.

Anyway, Capcom, some, will serve you up a game because it's trying to get you into a game and it will serve you up somebody who is astronomically better than you 1390 is extremely it's super we call it super low you're not supposed to be in there it's a place where you rest and then heal your wounds and all the enemies respond yeah and then you change your s this class and then you go out into the world again and everyone in the elo is like two words in a number is their gamer tag yeah yeah yes and dude Capcom serves me up an ultimate master

1800 rated Zangeefe That's fucked up And I'm rolling in my eyes Because this is annoying Because knuckleduz guile's like 1800 Yeah and he's a pro player And pro players

You don't like grind online He doesn't care But like he's sitting at a If he boosts up again He'll probably like 2000 or something Or if he actually tried Or legend or whatever But so

And it loads up And it's Zangief which is an annoying Matchep Which is an annoying matchup for everybody And I'm like okay And I play the best I've ever played in my life genuinely.

Genuinely, I'm doing shit with Akuma like I only thought about but never practiced but I'm like, I'll try it now, fuck it. I'm one hit away from killing this guy and taking his points. I would probably like 20 points which is astronomical for one game

and I just fuck it up. I actually have, if you want to look at it, Zipper on my Twitter, if you scroll through all the shit there's a video of me playing Street Fighter. A lot of scrolling for you Zipper. It's not that far down.

Just keep going Yeah it's this one Just play the song too Or the volume Oh He kills me immediately from here And that was game two I would have taken the whole set

And so So this guy His name is Lutiloo And I almost beat him He beats me After this game And he leaves So, one and done.

He won and dunes me, which is a way to say, well, I look like a hero. I'm 1399. I look like a hero because this guy, he's, he's, 2,000 MR? I thought it was 1800. He's 600 MR above me. Yeah, 2000's insane. 2000's like, you, bro, you might just straight up go to Highmaster if you win this game. Dude, it was crazy.

And so he's got his name and his thing. Which you immediately searched. I think he changed it because I think it used to say TTV and then oh it says it in his club thing. Yeah. And I'm like, okay, you have a TTV. It's time to be angry. And I go, I look up his Twitch channel and I find him

and there's him and he's on Twitter. And so I find his Twitter and I at him. I say, hey, a little too close for comfort, how pussy? Because he won and done. Because he won and done. This is three in the morning. Which is why in part Tyler receives so many hate threads because he's a champion of one and done then blocked.

Yeah, which I don't really appreciate. I'll want and done sometimes. It's a sometimes food, but he does it a lot. He also, Tyler the other day, he was like, I don't block anymore. I don't block. I haven't blocked in a while. He blocks. He blocks.

He blocks less. He blocks less. But he blocks. His block list might have filled up because Capcom is capped it. He cleared it. Oh, right. He did like a stream where he cleared it. And then the notifications go for every, so you can like spam unclear.

But then every notification for every block comes up. so it's like over the next hour he's just going to play like you've unblocked you've unblocked oh my god it doesn't go during the game so it's only in the lobby so I anyway I tweeted this guy and he replies to me he's like sorry I would have played you again if it was for

literally any points because the point discremency was so massive this never happens that he won and he got zero usually get like one but I was such a bad player he got no points he basically could only ever get nothing and lose probably 20 points

such a lot of progress if he's that high. And I said, and I called him like a pig. And I said, you're a pussy. You just love your little points pig. Because I almost beat the guy. You know, I'm just like, David and Goliath, right? You wanted a shot.

David wanted a shot. And then he said, yeah, sorry again. Like, I don't know, you played pretty good. Have a good night. Which I take is immediately condescending. Right. Because I'm insane. Right.

And then I say, all that MR and no motion, hate to see it. And then he got really. mad and this devolved and I'm not kidding four hours of us just screaming at each other on Twitter on Twitter at one point I got dragged in I don't know what and he said once you get your fucking daddy lot of we fucking suck your fucking dick penis and lick his balls and give you fucking money and he's like why don't you

money match me pussy's like I'm like I'm not gonna money at you I already was gonna play you but I'm not gonna mom at you'd beat me I don't want to do it you're pussy you're supposed to rematch me your pussy and like and he's like you're fucking suck a fucking dick pussy and it's really bad And eventually it devolves into Yeah If you weren't 1,300

You get a rematch No one rematching for zero points If you got some much motion We can money match Don't fuck it pussy Oh and here's what I got I said this was the worst This was on his Twitch page

It said FAQ Are you budget psychuno? He said yes And it has like a little cheesy art of Basically red haired Cycuno character I would think that's psychics

Yeah Okay so we're And this goes for like four hours. And eventually it evolves into him being so hammering these other things that are sort of outside the game. I say, I'm annoyed at this.

Do you want to fight me? And then he said, yeah, let's box. When would? I said, I would love to. I would love to box. And he's like, oh, good, I'll fly to L.A. You don't have to pay a dime. He's like, you don't have to pay a dime. It's like, probably five in the morning at this point. You don't have to pay a dime. I said, I would love that. I would love that. Come to L.A.

next week. He says, I'm not gonna go to America. What are you gonna slime me out? I'm like, no, you lost! You lost! Really, though, we both lost because we're both being so pathetic, right? This is really over the course of five hours.

Every single... Can I ask, like, in between every tweet, like, what are you doing? Like, because, like, you send out a tweet, you fire off a tweet. Like, let's just pause for a moment. You say, who the fuck cares about kudos? Low greedy piggy wants two kinds of points.

These don't cream pie anyone at Evo, bro. Like, you type that. Is it like, it's like good at cream pie? Do you ask? After you type that? What are you doing? Sure, that's a great question, Ludwig. Yeah.

Usually, if the conversation is moving fast enough, I'm kind of just at my computer, like, I don't know, watching a stream or something, waiting for the reply. You're like, are you refreshing? No, no, because my phone tells me. I don't need to refresh. If the conversation, if it's like someone doesn't reply very fast,

because I have a lot of free time, I'll just be doing something else. I'll just, sometimes I go on a walk and I do these. But this one doesn't sound like it was fast moving. No, this one, no, it was fast moving. This one was fast moving. Okay, okay. This one had,

this one had, this one had both of our wrapped attention. So, so it devolves into this whole thing. So this is, this is the day for both of you.

This is insane. It's a night, Ludwig. So, please, there's more. So I, I,

I hit him with that. It didn't. Because there's multiple, how these work is that people will reply twice and then it goes into different branching because they're kind of hard to find.

Yeah, it is frustrating. Anyway, we, I end up, eventually saying I'm fucking annoyed at you this is insane I'm also

I'm not the winner in this situation we both look insane and pathetic and I was like I'm not giving me more attention and I said that and then I gave him more attention and I was like

now I'm really not doing it it's like okay starts DMing me and I just say you know what dude go discord go discord right fucking now it's print of you

go discord go discord go discord I say and he's just typing a bunch and I say go discord come up I give him my discord

pop up I give him my discord he adds me what time is this I can look. Is it, can you just go to Slime's replies, like not the threads? I just want to see, like,

I just want to see the tro. The timestamps. This is at 5 in the morning. Dude, 619, 5 in the morning. He's West Coast Canada, so it's the same time for him. Same time. This was a 41-minute call.

At 5. I have 5 in the morning. Yes. And the match happened that you initially played. The sun rose during this call. At 3. You initially played at 3.

Yes. 3 a.m.? Yes. Okay, so this all happens over the course of basically like two, three hours. Yes. And so we get on this call and immediately I am not, when I do things like this, I am not intending to like so fucking own a guy or anything like that. I'm exhausted and I'm like, what, bro? Let's, okay, let's talk about this. So funny to jump into the call and be like, what, bro?

No, no, no. You threw the first stone. Well, I did throw the first stone, but he also didn't rematch me. He threw the first stone. He threw the first stone. You're supposed to rematch. And if you don't, okay, but the funny thing is, we go in. And I was like, okay, let's explain how we feel. And then he immediately, in a very reasonable and, like, thoughtful thing to say, he was like, how about I say everything I want to say uninterrupted, and then you say what you want to say uninterrupted?

And I actually protested. And I was like, uh, and he's like, that's fine. You can go first. And I was like, okay, I will. So I think that. And then we just, we broke down the whole situation. And we found all the pressure points. He's like, here's why people won and done if there's no points.

It's because the grind up to legend is really, really tough. And it's literally zero EV. And I say, I philosophically disagree with that. Finding games are meant to be played, no matter what, even if Capcom served us up this horrible match. He's like, I disagree. And I'm like, that's totally fine. And then we're talking about he was like, oh, by the way, brother. It's the picture of the two guys on chairs made out of their own brain.

He's so good at communicating. Also, he sounds just like Zikuno. I get it. So, and the reason why, as I guess back- Did you bring it up to him? Yeah, well, no, I didn't, but we talked about who we are. But the reason why I kind of this brought up because you said something like, people like say,

fucking Lodwig made you type shit, which is like, it's like half true. But it's only half true. So when you try to defend it, you look like you're defending a whole truth, which is really annoying and feels like shit. But he said, I don't know anything about you.

And I'm like, really? He's like, yeah, bro, I saw you on a Ludwig video like six years ago. I just did, I don't know anything. I was just saying that. And I'm like, yeah, that makes sense. And he was explaining he was so mad

because he is a creator who had a moment and then his moment kind of faded away, which is common and normal. And it was back in like the Amogas days or something. thing where he was like in Valorant lobbies

and he sounded just like Zikuno. So he was like playing with those guys like OTV people as like a novelty. And he fucking sounds just like him. It's crazy. And so, and he's like, he used to be challenger at league. He was like radiant in fucking

Valorite. And now he's like ready for Z. He's trying to be a pro street fighter player. So he's like a guy who's really good at games, right? Anyway, I'm learning all this about him. And we talked about the pressure points of what pissed us off. And what I said is when I said you have no motion, it was like a larger creator being like, you're a broke bitch. And I was like, hand to God, hand to God, bro. And I'm sorry, I'm 36. I meant it like aura. I swear to Jesus Christ. I was not

trying to shit on you. I was trying to keep this in the game. And I was just saying you're a nerd who plays for points only. And he's like, I understand. And I was like, I understand you now. Anyway, this is a 40 minute conversation. How old is he? 26. What? It's so much younger than I thought. He called himself Unk. And I was like... I mean, he's been in the game for a while for that age.

Like, he must have started very young. Yeah, and it was his whole thing. And it's his natural voice? It's straight up. He just sounds like him. That's fair. And we talked about like all this... We just talked.

And like after we like set it aside, we just got to know each other. So funny, bro. And he's a great guy. My sitting bag is a hole in it. Not my sleeping bat as a hole in. And he said, that's okay. Come on in, bro. Mine doesn't, bro.

I'm cold, bro. I'm cold. It's so interesting. He didn't even know I had a podcast. Because, like, it begs the question. Like, if this is, if this happens so frequently when slime really just meets someone, you know? Yeah. Does it mean that you ought to be a little slower to fire when you don't know someone and be like, you're fucking pedophile.

Here's the thing. Here's the thing, bro. Listen, bro. Listen, bro. And fucking listen what. And I'm all ears. And I love that. Here's the thing is that this one,

I was playing by the rules for all of it, except when I said the motion thing and I kind of used the wrong vocabulary. And it was an honest mistake. I was playing by the rules as I wasn't going after anything that wasn't available to anybody else on a very surface level thing. I wasn't looking at his profile being like,

oh, okay, he used to do shit, but now he does it and this and that. And like, I was not doing this. You're saying this could reasonably be taken as a personal hit, but you didn't mean it personal. Yes, like an over the line. You kept it in game. You tried to keep it in game.

Instead of you being a nerd, because he has his Twitch profile on his thing. He's saying come look at it, right? So I think everything there is fair game. This is pretty common in street fighter matchmaking as well. If you have TTV in your name, you're kind of like, you're kind of saying, people come talk to me.

That's why my name is most poyos TV. That's every game. Sure. And so, so that's my argument. But I said the wrong word that, he interpreted as like this is you felled off yeah you felled off which is a kind of a cruel thing to do

and a cruel leap which I agree with I was like yeah I wasn't trying to do that and I think that's different calling I a pedophile because we were essentially doing that I was like you're a greedy pig pedophile who plays for points and it's like well you're a fucking shitty or shitter noob is going to be shit forever and you're going to die a shitter

and I'm like this is all in the game this is all in the realm I think I do agree that he threw the first stone because you were basically a secret shopper like he's he's playing who he believes to be a random person who'll never interact with and he won and duns them. And he goes, I get away with it. He would never do it in person.

Well, I think the... In person, you sit down and someone you don't play one time ago, Gigi's and stand up and leave. The Street Fighter ranked is such a different experience. I don't consider it. It's generational. It's a generational gap.

Capcom should never serve that up. No, I understand. And I think he's reasonable for one and done it. But it's the first stone. Because if you were not... If you were in person, he would give you a couple more games because socially that makes more sense.

to do, but online you get a shield because I'm never going to meet this guy or talk to him, so I'll do whatever I want. I guess his argument would be there's no point you would argue there's no points in person. There's no point. Maybe. There's no points in person. This is, social. This is common, and it's not just him, this is like everybody. And this is just how the system works and how if you want to climb and get legend rank and have it at the end

of your shit, then this is what you kind of need to do. I'm just defending the idea that this is a first stone, because most people would be like, you threw the first stone by commenting. Oh, no, no, no, no. I think anyone who plays Street Fighter and gets one and done, they understand. That is the stone being thrown at your head, even if it's a tiny one. This is a critical detail in my mind.

Please. Just Street Fighter, display your win and loss count on your profile anywhere. Your total wins and losses for like that season or anything. Yeah, but you have to like dig for it. Okay, but it's not like displayed. No, no. They just give you your MR and go on be a family man. Yeah.

Because something I like about Slippy and something that was maybe embedded in me. because in Mario Strikers charged online, the point system was actually fairly bad, but it did track your wins and losses straight on the leaderboard and having a cool win loss ratio

much like the slippy leaderboard. Like when you're like 101, big penis. That's swag. And it's like you could be, you could be 40th on the slippy leaderboard and be like 400 and 200. It's like, that's not cool.

It's sort of a more crude way instead of the developed, like, Elo system that Street Fighter has that takes place of that. So even when you have a gap, you have this weird, psychological thing to still play for. But if it's not displayed on your profile,

that's not... It's like Tyler 1 really made the 1,980 loss guy ratio look cool with chess. Yeah. Like, he's got like 10,000 wins and 9,000 losses. It's the human spirit, right? Like, it's giant.

That on Slippy, that's four rocks. that's the deaf doctor Mario player for Rocks and he was the guy I was talking to was explaining it and it all made sense I just disagreed and he's like he's like I really want to fucking hit legend

and playing for zero points against the guy that maybe could be like you almost beat me is like not the way and I'm like yes so I do think the stone was thrown I look the thing is I had a hundred zero matchup that I kind of threw

in terms of social equity because I got annoyed and was like replying too much. But I look like a hero. Like I barely almost fucking beat him if I didn't DP or if I cross cut and I'm like what can you do? And I'm waving

my little dicker. Like that was where it kind of should have ended. But in a way I'm kind of glad because I don't know. He's like it was nice. It was nice to sit down after all of that and break bread. You guys are closer acquaintances now for all of this than you would

have been in a reality where you just reached out and said Gigi's bro. or he rematched and then you both went on your merry ways. Yeah. Yeah. This is weirdly the best time. I know. Isn't that weird?

I thought about that a lot. Anyways, going to Evo, so I'm going to say what's up. It's beautiful. So that's what I was doing. Bring the fucking gloves, bro. Yeah, bring the gloves bar, bro.

You should spar, bro. We were just the equal amount of insane rage. That was like when I met Aaron on Xbox and we were saying we would fight each other. But then we learned we went to the same schools each other. Because we met and it was like, I don't want to fight you. And he's like, I don't want to fight you either. But we wouldn't have. neither of us

I'll fucking fight you bro you go to the what school fuck bro that's got really close I was sure I was because I was telling him I was like yeah and I was thinking about the logistics

and I was like okay if we did something like this like we would have to sign something of a waiver he was like I was thinking about waiver too because I don't want like you to sue me I would never sue you bro we would just fight it was very we were like

he's like a in a way he's very like me except the hugest key difference is he's just way better at games He is better. He is better. And always will be. What's the other states you can do it? Washington, I think, right?

Oh, yeah. They have a, they have a dual agreement. Oh, really? Yeah, you don't need a waiver there. Just need to agree to the duel. Don't ever move to a place with a dual agreement. They're mainly seen the smash boxing event. I remember that.

Oh, that's why they did that there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It looked, it looked dangerous. You concussions. I remember thinking this looks dangerous. Wasn't one of your easy homies in it that was in? I'm trying to think of who it was. Easy, homie that you know

he was in a button video. I mean a YouTube video about it. Oops. Yeah. Anyway, that was Lutie Lou. He's cool, so we'll follow him. Well, we come together every week. Jeremy.

And we recap what you've done on Twitter over the weekend. And the consequences of it. Yeah. And this one actually has kind of a beautiful ending. Well, this one was more real than anything else because it started arguably, like, in a more justified place even for both of us he's like

because he was nice when I said you want and done me he's like I'm not playing for zero point sorry bud and I was like fuck you which is also funny but the other shit like I had a viral tweet fucking yesterday and because about how if you use weights you'll hurt your shoulder and I was like I did

this and I hurt my shoulder but you feel like Brian from Tekin and people were like criticizing me and I'm like well I hate this I hate the algorithm picks a tweet up and it ships it ships it it out to the general Twitter audience and I just, I hate what it happens. This happened to me bro, because I

Razor. Oh my God, it was crazy. Razor made the Viper B4 and I was like, I'm a big Viper fan. I'm going to order the new Viper before. I've used every Viper in the whole series and so I order it and it comes like it was shipped just using the water of the ocean. Like they

just shipped it with the tide. Literally the box. I took it off my doors. I took it off my doors. I'm not getting it just disintegrated in my hand. The whole the box it came in, the box of the product, everything was soaking wet. And it's just like, I could, I literally ripped it like a phone book.

And then the mouse was in the middle. I was like, dude, what the fuck happened? So I, I angrily, I immediately go to razor support. And I'm like, hey, here's pictures in my box. Just send me a new one thinking this is like a layout. Like just get me a new one. And they're like, yeah, yeah, we could totally get you a new one here to sign this whole form and then you got to ship it back to us.

And I was like, no. I was like, out of principle. I was like, no, I won't do that. This adds up, though. I'm not going to ship it back. I want a gesture. I was like, I want a gesture. I've had every right from the fucking past.

You're going to send me a new one. I just want to do one. Nope, I'm not going to ship it back. This is a broken up product. It doesn't work. Wow. And they're like,

they're like, look, can't do it. And I'm like, you're going to do it. You're going to, I'm like, you're going to, whether or not you do it,

this is going to happen. So you should be the, I literally said to this guy, look me in my virtual eyes and tell me this is not insane. But this is not a very fair gesture I'm asking for. He's like,

totally understand, And I'm like, okay, fine, fine, we're going to go the niche fucking internet route. And I'm going to make a tweet. I'm going to make a tweet. Oh, so that's when you. They're stirring shit up on that. So immediately, immediately, I tweet at Razor. And I say, look, bro, thanks for the new mouse, bro.

I love the new mouse, bro. Why was it in the ocean, bro? Okay. And then I immediately tag Ludwig. I want the best chance. I immediately tied Love, I said, bro, do something with your fucking career, bro. It is true. Plus one, retweet, bro.

As much as I want to be critical of him right now, he is right on this. No, he's not right. never use your fame for anything. First off, I'm an alienware sponsored player. Dude. So I don't need, I don't, I don't, I, this is a layup for you. Who we never, because alien wears like, yeah, look, the razor products come in the wind from the ocean. Imagine Ludwig was like, hey, that's crazy Nick. An alien wear has some great peripheral shit. You should have got alienware. Haschagic should have got alien. You don't think of that. And then I would tweet again and I would be like, fucking, I'm done with razor.

I'm done with, I need something alien to wear. Do you understand? You show me out of this world. And you left me out of the dry. It's fine. It doesn't matter. And so this for some reason, this tweet pops off, like, more than any of my tweets recently. It's like 20,000 likes, some crazy shit.

And it goes into this weird part of the algorithm of people. They're not mad about my first tweet. They're mad about my Ludwig reply. And they're all replying about half of them are saying, like, bro, why are you tweeting at, like, Ludwig for this? Like, he doesn't know you. He's not going to reply to you, bro. That's half of them.

And then the other ones are like, Ludwig's a piece. piece of shit, bro. Like, why are you asking him? Also, people who don't understand our relationship to each other? And I was like, where did this go? Some of them were like, why would you order a razor product, stupid Groy? And then there were some people who were like, yeah, that's what you get for ordering razor. And then people are applying like, actually, Razor Mice are pretty good. And they're like, no, it's not kill yourself. And they're like, I've been using razor for a long time.

And I'm like, who are you all? Yeah. And then one of them's doing a Hitler suit. It's like, shut up Norm Groyd. You'll never own a mouse that is worthy of your white hands. So all these weird bacteria are, are, are, or, are, are, or, are, and dividing in my replies. And then, and then I look at my DMs. Oh, Razor Support. Hello.

I won't say her name. Or she blur that. Hello. I'm that too. From Razor support. I'm from the influencer team. Oh, I'm from the influencer team. I hate brands.

I hate brands. What do you mean they hate, let me say, let me set you up with the VIP package for the Viper Vival. Oh my God. I would enjoy that. I immediately rushed back to the chat. box from the support. And I said, look, bro.

Look, bro, I got what I wanted, bro. I got what I wanted, bro. You did not do that. You two are both demons. No, I just replied to the ticket. And you said, I got what I wanted. I said, I got what I wanted, bro. You two are both little three.

You are with this outrage right here. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Aiden's not off the hook. I got you. Because when I, when I went up to the girl, and I was not off the hook of watch. Shut up. And I'm like, you want to go on a fucking date with me.

And I got flies coming off. A big stinky crotch. She's like, she's like, I have to paint like, you know, and I'm like, okay. And then I get into my Lamborghini. I get into my like souped up Civic. My upd type R. Yeah. I get into my type bar.

Yeah, I get into my type R. And she's like, oh, that's your car? Well, maybe I get you the VIP package with the extra mouse pads that have five different friction settings. I'll give you all the friction settings. I was like, oh, yes, it's different than the video because I took it. In the video, you're supposed to be like, no, I don't need it. I immediately say that. You immediately say, yeah.

Because I want the mouse that replaces the one I bought. I think you guys have all changed. Oh. And you are all giving me examples of ways we have used this new platform we have. I think I've changed a little bit, but I think of most of this thing. This is the best way to use it. These are all uses or maybe in other people's point of views, abuses of their platform. Aidan's not free from this.

I'll give you Aidan's story. Also, he's defending Razor, which is, what are you doing? Defend me... Let me put him down. The shipping company fucked it up. Razor has nothing to do with this. Did you buy it from Razor or like Amazon? On the Razor website.

That's a, that's a homey move. Yeah, you're right. That's a homey move. The truck and the playing, I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying. I get what you're owned by Razor.

You're right. When you buy it from the website, that's a homey move for the brand. When a yard fan receives a damaged package and they go, my thing's all fucked up. What do we do? What do we do when they receive a damage package?

I... Depends. It depends. Depends. Depends. Depends on how famous you are, bitch. Refund them. If they were like, I just want a new shirt.

Immediately refund them. That's what I do. If they were like, can I just get a new shirt instead? And then... You'd say no? And then it's damaged? I'd send him a new shirt. Why couldn't he just say that?

Why was he so... He got caught his nipples out. You understand? He got caught his nipples on the movie theater. Because that's the reasonable gesture to a fan. Is you just do the hard part for them. You just send him a new one. Because what?

It's fucking 10 bucks for us. And it's a big difference for them. And Razors, you're a... It's a massive corporation, probably one by HP or something. The difference is that if a shirt shows up damaged, it doesn't, like, they can't send it in, and then we do some miracle fix. The shirt is just damaged.

They don't fix the mouse. They're not going to fix the water damage mouse. They end up getting and refurbish to hell, and they send you a new mouse. So I've been going to the coffee shop that I go into my city. And every time I go, they got the little square reader, and I buy my coffee, and I keep racking up points.

And they ask me, you want to spend your points? You got like a lot of free copies and I'm like, uh-uh. I want it to build. I have to inquire. I want to go up. Well,

I'm gonna do more. I want the most points that anyone can't ever have. It'd be pretty smart to spend them. I'm not going to. No. With Square. I'll let it build up.

If you don't know what Square, you can use it to take payments in person or online or on the go and you can even set up a rewards program. I use my rewards program. Mine's bulging out. The thing, you want to, it's starting to fill.

It's a filled. I want my, tell me to be filled with the points. And I thought it couldn't fill more, but it keeps filling more and inflating. Okay, but there's more to square than just filling. Oh, really?

Yeah, yeah. I feel like filling and getting as big as you can. Track inventory and sales. You take sales, it's like really good for any business, any size. And the business is, like the coffee shop could be accessing

their earnings with square banking, but I'm acquiring the point. And the thought that one day I could unleash all the points at once is just riveting, but I'm not going. I mean, I mean, the cool thing is that, I guess, scales with your business.

I want to be so. full of points that they have to come out. Right. The points have to leave. Well, one day they'll need to. Well, they'll burst out. One day they'll burst,

I won't have a choice. Oh, it's coming out. The points out of every orifice. There's a 53% increase in sales for Square members. So I think if you join the Square loyalty program, that'll help too.

Oh, I'm being loyal. Okay. Well, if you're starting... A low customer never gives up his points. If you're starting a business or running one that deserves better tools, Square helps you sell, manage, and grow without slowing down.

I can't slow down. Right? Grow. Right now, right now, get up to $200 off Square hardware at square.com slash go slash yard.

Acquire. That's S-Q-U-A-R-E dot com slash G-O-S-Yard, run your business smarter to square. Get started today. Oh, it's going to come out. What is it?

My points are going to spend. That's okay. You should spend them. I don't have a choice. I don't want to keep the choir. Guys, look, I think, I think, you know, we made this podcast a few years ago.

Five years. Five years. Almost five years. Almost five years. I wanted you guys to get rich. You guys got rich. Now you guys have big platforms and you're using it to harass smaller creators.

I've been doing this since I had a... I'm using it to get free gifts from corporations. Yeah. But I think Aiden might be the worst. Ain't shit free? Wait, wait, what did he do? The worst? What did I do?

Let's hear it. What? What? What? What? What? Did he has the talking hat? Because we're at a meeting

and we're talking about actually tip to tip three. and Aiden leaves. It's going to be Israel. Spoiler. Well, that's just one part of it. Goes through many different regions. I leave.

Aidan leaves and someone shows up to the warehouse. And Liza, who's in the meeting, leaves for like a while. What's going on? She comes back. I shit you not. Three massive trays of sushi.

Like, you would not believe the size of this grill. And it was an amazing amount of sushi. And I didn't know it's coming. And everyone's like, everyone starts feasting. Like, what is all this? Stone Cold. I feasted too. Did you feast? I didn't get to feast. I feasted much. Everyone starts feasting

on the sushi. And as I'm feasting, and I'm feigned. Where is this sushi from? This is delicious. It was delicious. It was a beautiful feast. It's a beautiful food. And it turns out Aiden. had been reached out to by a viewer who worked at a sushi restaurant. And the viewer said, do you want to taste? And Aiden goes, give me a taste. You made me eat viewer sushi?

I actually, this is my old boy! You guys are morons. Do you actually think that's what happened? Yeah, yeah, bar for bar. Yeah, 100%. You made me eat viewer sushi? I'm the only one who has fucking changed, dude. Do you want to disassociate while he tells us what really happened?

I'm the only one who's a fucking change. What, what happened? He works, he runs his own catering business and reached out to to cater our events and I said wow, that sounds great, I'll hand you off to our producer Liza who can talk to you about hiring you for events in the future and then they separately

coordinated a sushi sampler to see if they hire his catering company for future events. If you think that is the same, you are evil. Aiden, use this person to get a taste and let me tell you, I haven't even communicate with them. No, because I heard that story too. It's really hard. Liza solicited the sushi. It's hard to know. A movement stopped. And let me tell you,

We had an event. We did not cater no sushi. But we did get a taste. You made me eat fewer nigeri. You made me eat a viewer's food? You was in my government. And Aiden, Aiden was out while this happened. He sends a message.

He goes, leave some sushi. Leave some sushi. I want to taste. Leave some for God. Leave some for the guy who got it. I wanted some of the sushi. And it was good. It was amazing.

It was really good sushi. He's delicious. If you ever have, if you ever incorporate a viewer in my life, again, I will kill you. I'm the only one. Again, Liza did this. I'm the only one. Again, if we're just...

And I think I'm the only one who doesn't abuse my platform. It's unbelievable. You haven't bought clothes in six years because people just send you shit. Hold up. I bought clothes two months ago. Okay. What are you thinking about my fit today?

You bought these clothes. Yes. I don't... You look like it's your first time golfing and this is all you had. That's all I had. And I'm here to golf. I can't prove that you've done this.

Give me a nine iron? Is there a nine iron? Nine is just... Put nine in that iron. You've changed. changed. Oh. We, bar none. Yuck. We've established how they've changed. I don't think I've switched up because pre-

pre-mun, if this happened to me, I would care in the same way. I just now have a second avenue to do something about it. Yeah, also, my perennial defense in the way I act online is I would do this and have done this the same amount. He's changed the least. Yeah, so I think I think before your guy swinging a squeaky hammer and now you have the Super Smash Brothers mega hammer. Obviously

I have a mega hammer, but I still act as if I have small one which is a mistake. That's the issue. It actually doesn't your argument makes those sense because I have a great responsibility. I'm still using a crazy sword. Look. What? What dude? I would just fucking

take the shipping label. Ship it back. I, you know what? I would let it go. No. No, because I waited, bro, I waited like a week and a half for this bullshit, man. That's just like so short. No, man. We ship shit on Amazon for two days.

We ship shit. I went to their website and waited an extra fucking six days for this. Amazon's actually getting too crazy. Amazon's too crazy. I ordered something on Saturday night at like 8 p.m. and it said,

okay, I'll be delivered by 10 a.m. tomorrow Sunday. And I was like, we know, I don't need this. It's gross. I don't need this. It's gross how it also shapes

our expectations of shipping. Of course. It is. But him, again, the huge defense here is him using the Razor website is a big gesture. And that loyalty was kind of not,

that loyalty was met with a lot of friction and be like send it back my loyalty gets rewarded when I go to Jenny's ice cream and I get 50% off because I've gone three times this month I was like you say three times that week because you're a real creamer bro because I'm a real creamer and I'm back don't lie that you went three times in a month you've been it was this week

yeah I thought so why do you have to change my story you went three times this week he has guests and shit bro he's got to show Liam jennies he's got super jenies oh my god Liam's been so weird since he got buff I know You were talking about it, you're right. Liam got really buff. He's like strong now.

He goes to the gym like every day. And he like he looks chiseled when you look at him. But I was I was like, I invited Liam to the show match and I thought he's going to stay at my place. But you know, I don't communicate well. He doesn't communicate well. He shows up to L.A. I message him. I go, are you here, bro?

Because I know when his flight lands. And he goes, oh yeah, I'm at the hotel, but they're out of rooms. I didn't fill out the form to get a room. I was like, stay at mine. He's like, oh, you have a hotel? I'm like, no, my place. Come to my place. And then he comes.

and then next day he takes a suitcase and he leaves and he goes to the hotel. I'm like, where you go to the hotel? He's like, oh, I already got it. And he fucking walks around and I see him in the morning at the event I go, hey Liam. And he goes, so pussy

and he's fucking big now. And he's big now. I don't know if you maybe are you looking for it. Can you show the picture of his fridge? I am looking for it. That would be really convenient right about now. And he brushed his shoulders. He brushed his shoulders when he walks around.

Oh, he got, well, I think I know how he got big, Ludwig. Have you seen his fridge? I haven't seen his fridge. why to get big. Is there like meat in it? You'd hope with what's in there. You'd hope there's meat. Uploading to Zipper right now. Uploading meat fridge. Computer, please pull up

Liam's fridge. Computer, show me Liam's cock. This is the guy who doesn't know where his mom is. Like a All right, audio listeners, I'm going to help you out here. This is a vertical side of a fridge on the right side, the refrigerator element.

This is the door mostly. You can't see inside of the fridge, but it does look pretty. It does look pretty empty, but let's start at the bottom. Actually, let's save the bottom for later. It's like a dessert. On the fridge door, we have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 bottles of Rays sauce. This is not sweet baby raise. It's 12. It's 12 bottles.

Wait, wait, it's raised barbecue sauce, but I think it's low sugar. I'm pretty sure. 1, 2, 3 on the left. 4, 5. 6. I'm pretty sure the yellow label is sugar-free. When it's rays, it's not sweet baby raise. It's not sweet anymore. So this is sugar-free barbecue sauce.

He has about 11 empty bottles and a 12th bottle that is absolutely full resting on top of them Kind of like a crowd serve I'd like to add these I'd like to correct one more detail slide He has he has 11 half to quarter full bottles No no no no he does have it Look at the there's a lot of barbecue sauce in there You can see where it lines up on the label I look I think

This is can I speak Fine What could you possibly say I think the average, if you were to be honest, of the 11 bottles would be a quarter filled. The third. I think a third. I'll take a third and no more. I can't give you half.

I'll take you a third and no less. A third. I'll join you. And I'll take you a third. And that's why I haggle. So all these empty bottles average out to about a third of race, barbecue sauce. With one full one lying on top of the bottom shelf. If my body is correct about this, that's fair life chocolate milk.

Chocolate milk. Two Starbucks. Cold brew. bottles. And then on the right, I think that is a... The right's the fair life chocolate milk. The left is like a regular chocolate milk. And then we have a... We have about five bananas on the floor.

No, sorry, that's on an Amazon box below the fridge. Is the Amazon bag? Amazon bag? Over the floor bananas. I mean, to be honest, this matches up perfectly because this is the diet of somebody who's eating the same meal basically every single day and trying to bulk and goes to the gym. Like, it's very

clear to me. Yeah, it's like, It's like when people on Reddit will post, like, hey, my boyfriend of like four years only eats like one of four things and only wears solid color t-shirts. I have a theory. Yeah. It matches with what you're saying. He has this on auto order. And that's about how far he gets when the next one comes. I don't think so.

No. I think you probably just order a new one. I think the only reason I don't agree with that is there's two different brands of chocolate milk. Yeah. Listen, bro. I mean for the, I can explain this. Sauce. Sometimes you just.

Don't want to finish it. I think me and Liam are pretty similar. What do you mean, old fish? I think it's the effort to get the last third out outweighs. No, you guys. Can we call him? Well, I think if I were to call him, he would tell me he eats chicken and rice twice a day and he drinks chocolate milk every day.

No, I get all that. I want to know why the bottles aren't being thrown away and why they're not being finished. Because, and we'll see if his answer is different, there's a feeling of cracking a new bottle that feels very good, too. sometimes it just feels old if there's too much if it's old but this is what confuses me I understand

I understand that feeling but those that being that guy that feeling is ranked under the desire to avoid going back to the grocery store no the grocery store is fun sometimes and he's found a way to make

this all makes sense I see this as a completely making sense situation you're very confused but it's not something for you to understand he could be on a flight nobody home no only um man

I swear well this pretty much lines up exactly what the episode we had with him. I would expect his fridge to be, this is like evil Mr. Shy City. I mean, to be honest, this is working. Sweet baby rays, but that whole video is this someone who edits it.

The only keeps saying. It's just raised. Because it's not sweet. Yeah, he, it's working. He's big now. He kind of put me on. I really want to try normal rays now.

I can't, I imagine this is a great sauce for not adding a lot of calories. Yeah. Yeah, he's fucking big and a problem. Some of us are deadlifting at the office Ludwig. Some of us are deadlifting. Christian and I.

Dude, I'm strong. I can do fucking 20 pull-ups in a row, no problem. I don't care. Do you not? 20-ups? 20-with-me? I'm serious. Can you do 20?

Easily. Do you want to do this after the episode and film it? I will do it, yeah, anytime, yeah. After the episode and film it. 20? Chin over bar. These way. 20 chin over bar.

Yeah, yeah. 20 chin over bar. Yeah, I'll go chin over bar, sure. We're going to film it, and then it'll cut right to that. Do you want wide grip or close group? Um, what? Like, normal, whatever you're comfortable with. I want your bad one.

It's not normal. It's not normal. There's pressure. Like shoulder. No, like shoulder. That's not wide. That's not wide. That's not wide.

Yes. Wide grip. Why is it? You can't. Yes, you can. You can't do 20. That's why. I'm more so man.

Boom or boom. Boom or boom. Am I crazy? Wide grip pullups are the, like when you have the wide bar with the Yeah. Yeah. And you pull and it. Yes.

I meant, I man this. This is. I think you could do those easy. I don't care. This way. This way. Yeah, I can do 20. No problem.

I want to see it. It'll be the intro of the episode. I'm like amped to do it. I can't wait to end. I'm excited for you. Do you see ma'am? Are you coming to end? Are you coming to?

Am I coming to what? Coming to night? To what? It's chubby cattle Monday. It's chubby cat on Monday. Oh, it is. This is like the whole last play, bro. Yeah, I'm coming.

I'm coming. I'm coming. Stop saying it. I'm coming. I'm going to come. I'm going to come. I'm going to come. I'm going to come.

I'm going to come. I'm gonna fucking come. You've said it so many times that you make me feel like you're not. Well, I have a shoot tonight. I have a shoot tonight. You're actually getting a little softer. You have a shoot tonight? Yeah, he does have a shoot tonight. 9 p.m. shoot with who? Adult swim. Dan, Liza. Yeah, is it lower thirds? No, no, nope, nope, nope.

They slaughtered you at 9 p.m. Yeah, well, it's gotta be when the sun's down. Oh. Sunsets late these days, boys. Wow. Well, that's fucking hard. I'm sorry that you have to take a shoot at 9 p.m. That's fucking fine, bro. I fucking work. Actually, I penciled in a week of vacation. I don't know if you saw on my calendar. Really? Yeah, I'm out.

July 1st and 7th. Are you going? No, wait, what? I'm out. Wait, where are you going? Nowhere. I'm just going to stay home and not do anything. That's badass.

That's kind of hype. Wait, July 1st or 7. Yeah, yeah, this is a change. I've changed. I think you're going to crack. I'm going to message Razor during it. I'm going to fucking... I think you're going to break.

I think you're going to end up streaming on like the fourth day and be like, ah! We should play Conner? strike on your week off. I could do that. I have so much time. Let's do it. I'd love to. Yeah, yeah. Play aspire, go up. I would love to. Dude, sounds great. Let's do it. We're going to fucking hang out. I'll fucking hang out.

Okay. Why are you sad? Are you going to come on the trip? Yeah. Yeah? Yeah, it's my week off. I can go on a vacation. I love how the Mogul moves organized a Six Flag employee trip and then Ludwig bailed last minute to stream. In my defense, it was Summer Games Fest. Oh, awesome. That very memorable that.

In his defense, the way this company trip was planned was a yingling chaotic disaster. Wait, yinling fucked something up. No. Fuck. He didn't check the cow. He didn't look at the thing, the grid with the words and the numbers on it. He doesn't know. I just know how to check it.

You know how to check it, bro. It's hard to check to be fair in his defense, though. You know game sucks, by the way? Ballarat. I mean, you said it sucks and you said it's coming back, and now you're saying it sucks again? The viewership on the CS major? Valoran's dead forever. No, I think this is such a dumb.

What? No, Valeran's Chinese now. That's what say it is. Valeran's Chinese. It's Chinese. And I think we don't, because it's super Chinese. It's like, yeah.

Because I was in China. Yeah. And they were playing it on the mobile phone. On the damn phone. Everywhere. It's extremely popular. I'm in Changda. I just couldn't even fucking point to that.

And most couldn't. No. Chinese people probably would struggle. They would probably be like, where the fuck is that? Chang. It's a big city, right? It's like a tier three. Are you saying,

Oh, you're literally saying literally a different city. Yeah, I'm no idea what this is said. Oh, I thought you were intentionally saying Chung do that.

I also thought that. I thought you were putting some... Chung-Doo's a tier one. They would know where Chung-Doo is. Right. So that's my confusion. Yes. It's like Kansas City and Missouri for us.

Yeah. I'm like, I'm like fine El Paso. Okay. It's harder. So, someone get it. Everyone knows where El Paso. Is that we're back or not?

Pull up blank map of U.S. No, I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. I'm making Nick do it. No, I don't know where El Paso is in Texas. Oh, really? Oh, I don't know where El Paso.

What do you think it stands for? As a word to translate. The passing. Okay. So where would you put a... I'd go to some sort of passing on the map. Like, if there was sort of maybe like river... It doesn't help me.

I know what... Because you're right, but it doesn't help. Like, I don't know where it is. I don't know where it is. I don't know if that... Okay. Because there's a few places you could pass. I thought it would help, but...

It does help. Like, I would do all that and then I'd be like maybe here. But I wouldn't know. I'd be lucky if I got it. Like, I don't know the info. So blank map of Texas. Yeah. You were going to point to it.

I would point to Austin wrong. Like, I wouldn't even know where Austin is. I've been there. Yeah. You know? I don't know where the cities are in Texas. Yeah, you just fly to them. And then you get out of the airport call Uber.

It's exactly what I would do. Yeah. And I would be like, I don't know where I am. Like third street. If someone was like, oh, we're going to go to Dallas for the day. I'd be like, that must be close enough to do. There you go. Oh, well, here.

Where would I put it? I'd put it to the bottom right. Close. It's the bottom. Like where? Help him with his cursor. Like up a little more. That's where we put El Paso?

Right there. That's El Paso? Yeah. Exactly opposite. It's in the bottom left. Yeah. Exact opposite. It's on the border of Mexico and Texas.

Oh, that makes so much sense. El Paso. El Paso. That makes sense. I didn't consider that. There's a lot of border. There is a lot of border. lot of border. And that's true.

We should go to war. Where's San Antonio? Who fucking knows? San Antonio? Not totally, but like... Bottom right. No one can find it. There's a lot of Spanish. Yeah, it's like a little higher than that, but it's...

Mexican... It's like three hours south, I think of Dallas. Why don't we go to a damn Texas beach? Texas has all that... The Spanish influence because of its proximity to Mexico? No, I don't think so. No, doesn't make sense. Wait.

You're talking about Galveston? Talking about Galveston? wants to go to Galveston, Texas. Yeah, go Galveston, get on the beach. Nobody wants to go to Galveston Beach. Is it Dallas or Fort Worth? Is that we fucking decide? Both. Both. There's no, what do you mean

it's both? It can't be both. It can't be both. It's one or the other. It can't be both. Okay, so if I'm going to Dallas. Yep. Okay, so now I'm also like, I'm going to Fort Worth. Oh, okay. So I'm going to same place. No. Wait, wait, is it like Minneapolis, St. Paul? It is little like

Miami and, Oh, I'm blanking on the name right now. That's how you know. Fort Worth, Fort Worth. Fort Lauderdale. Fort Lauderdale. Fort Lauderdale. Is that it?

Miami, Fort Lauderdale? I think it's Fort Lauderdale. I don't know. I'm shooting. I'm shooting. I don't like to get rid of Dallas. Let's just keep Fort Worth. I like that.

Cleaner. Well, no, you know what you need is. Less clean. I like it. You know what you need is a war. You need a war to solve the problem. Texas would love a war. But a war that we solve in GTIARP.

No, no, real war. Lacey leads the Dallisseansans. Delicians. Delicions. Delicions. Lacy would get swallowed up by Aden Ross's faction immediately and he would become a tier two mob boss

only capped. Sorry. Sorry. Still a mob boss. I don't know. Still a mob boss. Does that fucking make you mad? Wait, what were you saying about Valorant?

You don't like Valoran anymore? Yeah, it's dead. Filled off. It's dead. It's not dead. I never said it's dead. It's dead. I think it's not dead.

I actually think it's thriving, just not in America. But I think the game, sucks because I played it and it was a horrible experience. Yeah, that's a bad sign for a game. Why did you play it? Because I've been doing the God Game or Gondland. We're out doing 10 games in row,

back to back, to back to back to back. And I got to game number nine and that game was Ballarat. You got a nine? You got to nine. No, you got Valoran. And I got, and I played Valorant and I got fucked. I went four in like 18. It was miserable.

That's so sad. And the player base, it's like, it is what the stereotype is. Like, I go from CS2 and they are just like either no calming or boomers. And then I go to Valerate and there's a bunch of fucking zoomers. Yeah, it's zoomers. Really? Still? Yeah, it was all zoomers. You can hear the bus and haircut through the mic? Yes, loudly. Fucking loud. Dibiga. Dibigua. Did they say that shit? They were saying shit, I didn't even understand. But well, the most they were saying is damn, raise your ass. And I'm like, yeah. So what is your evaluation of the game after playing

it for one game? Too many champs. They're going to make it like league it's a mistake. because the meta evolves not through players inventing new strategies but through finding like the best combination of agents. Okay. Yeah. And new agents makes it worse. That's everyone's take on the game. I loaded up that game and then blue flames came out of my mind and I didn't know what

was happening and then I died. Yeah. Yeah, that'll happen, man. It's bad now. And CSs. They're adding too many agents forever. But at the same time, I thought about this a lot because it's like, what they meant to do? Keep it simple, stupid?

It's also, like, I can't have the game can't, I mean, I think game, that's the crime of the game. It can't not be this. I think the comp, to not be this is to just go in the direction of counterstrike. But Counterstrike is like inherently simple. Like, there is no abilities. This is a game that has abilities. So it's like you got to develop them. You got to make new ones. You got like they're doing what they're supposed to do. But then also it's like, here's a solution. No, but that's what I mean. It's like one agent a year. That's what they should have done. One agent a year, I think would be good. Or even locking agents. Locking.

Oh, like you can't play them? Like, Overwatch did? I think taking away choices from the players is a really bad idea. I think it's the monkey's paw of developing a game like this. Which I don't think is bad. It's like they print money.

The way that CS does maps Valens shoot characters. You've got agents that are only and unrated. Yeah. And then you've got comp agents that have more time in. That's kind of cool.

Even though it's still take it. That's kind of what Overwatch did, right? You're just not allowed to play unless maybe it's a casual mode. But... I don't know. I don't know. I know Overwatch is like,

I know Overwatch is like you can't have the same champ across multiple people in comp, but you can and unrated. Like you have full mercy team on unrated.

I just want to... I guess Riot has failed a couple times. So I guess my wish kind of got granted, but... That they would fail? Yeah, it's just nice to see

such a juggernaut fuck it up. Did Valve... Did they stumble into Counterstrike working again? Did that happen? kind of just by like natural people being fed up

with oversaturated like games and it's like, oh, they return to something. Or do they do something. They actively do something. They made CounterStrict 2. Yeah, but at first it was flopping. It was shitty. That's because they were also continually working on Counterstreet.

The same thing that happened with Go when it launched, is like it launched shitty and then they just fix it. And then the people that are peeved come back. And then ultimately, I think you just have a base game that's very understandable. And I think that's the power of like, I've been thinking about this a bunch, is this like gamble of making. a game that like lasts the test of time.

Because if you're a developer and you need something to hit, you're very incentivized to make something like Valourn, where you pump out like updates and champions and like, in skins at a pace that allows you to like monetize the game successfully and keep the player base that you attract interested in coming back like month after month. But I think in the long, long run, which very few games, this is why it's kind of a weird decision is if you want your game to last like, like 10 plus years or 20 plus years, you actually hurt yourself by developing a game in that way. Because anybody that would like love your game but had to step away from it because of life who comes back later has a really hard time engaging with what you've made again.

But we can all come back to CS, or I think another game that does this really well that will remain very popular for a long time, is Rocket League. You can just, you can tap back in at any time and immediately understand, the game. And if your game is good enough to survive

generations of people cycling in and out of it, you can get to like the 10, the 15, the 20 year mark, then you're like this, then it's better for your game to be simpler. Okay, but we're out of time, but damn, League of Legends. Yeah. I feel like doesn't have the problem Valoran has. And they have way more champs. I think league is in a tough spot, right? Because it has declined and the e-sport of it all is... I don't know if it has really declined that much.

Your argument is always that there's more gamers in the world and a lot of people play league, which I think about sometimes, I think sometimes it makes sense, and sometimes it doesn't make sense. I mean, I don't have the exact numbers. I do know that for the first time, like, because I talked to somebody who works there,

for the first time, like, league was, like, declining in Asia in, like, recent years, which was, like, a big deal. It was, like, losing, like, market share for the first time. The numbers in NA as far as I know, last year, the numbers in NA, player-wise,

were like going up for the first time. But the e-sport, like, I don't know about China numbers. China numbers are this mystery, right? But the e-sport numbers are like bad except for worlds. And I have a theory that people only give a shit about

like a lot of people who like make that record-breaking number every year are tuning in. because Faker and the SKT narrative is like still a huge part of it. Like for the people that are on the peripheral and like want to see Faker do it again. Yeah, I'm interested to see post-Faker retirement.

Yeah. What viewership at that event outside of China is going to be like? This is, I think League is a bit of an anomaly and I do agree that I think it pokes a bit of a hole in my theory, but I don't think it says like League is like struggling from what it was and all it has in terms of it like breaking records anymore. is the world's viewership,

which we have the goat of e-sports happens to participate in it every year. So what happens when that guy's gone? I'm curious what happens. Behind flash. Huh? Well, I'd love to have... It's faker now.

I'd love to have this debate. We'll have it in the Patreon. We'll see you there. We're a boomer debate. Flash is faker. But this episode's over, seriously, guys. Yeah, we're up. Bye.
