Starting point is 00:00:01 I'm just chewing. Yeah, just chewing? Okay. You can finish up whenever. Wash it down? Wash it down now. Wow, keep going now. Don't spit up.
Starting point is 00:00:29 Look at the technique. He lets the water. He lets the air bubbles slowly filter out. The bubbles is too nice of a sound to, like, when I get the bubbles going, I'm like, I don't really want to chug it. I like how the bubbles feel and sound. Now, this is a pre-crack without a first sip. This is interesting.
Starting point is 00:00:44 There's a lot happening right now. Zipper just said, that's crazy. Pre-crack without the first sip, and now we're opening the protein shake. We're right into the premier protein. That's going to be about 30 grams. The cap is flicked into oblivion. That will stay there for the rest of time. Huge chug.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Oh, my God. He's going for all of it. The neck on the boy. He's going for all of it. He doesn't want to savor this protein shake. He wants to get it done. This is for use. This is for function.
Starting point is 00:01:07 I need my strength. And the premier protein shake has been killed. What's the status of the bar? Finished? We finished the protein bar. And then they're going to top it off with a really. Red Bull. This is Ludwig.
Starting point is 00:01:22 This is Ludwig. Is this a typical breakfast for you? In a shorter time span, but yeah. So you expedited the process because we're doing the podcast that you love to do. Yeah, so I had a crush all that. But I would do that over the course of like seven minutes.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Phone propped up, watching cum tism. No, no, no, no. Oh, seven minutes. No phone propped up. No. Are you saying seven minutes is a fast amount of time to drink those drinks? It's too fast for me to prop of the phone and throw up a video. Seven minutes is like a hell long time.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Are we not? Yeah, seven minutes. If I took seven minutes to drink a water in front of you, it would feel like an eternity. But if you were to time how long it takes for you to pick out the video, prop of the phone, and watch it, it's going to be way more than seven. Like, a comptitism video is going to be way more than. Well, accumptism, you finish that later because it's everything food. It's every meal. We need to discuss your YouTube goons.
Starting point is 00:02:16 I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't start a video and then finish it later. So I'm not willing to put in five minutes. I've finished what I started to a video that I like, because I know I'll never finish it. Really? You don't go back to videos? Nif it's not on the homepage, it's gone. No, it stays as you're continue watching. Continue watching. I don't get that a lot. Do you guys ever click the button watch later on YouTube? Never. I do. I do. But only for like informational. shit. I never do it for entertainment, only information and informational shit. I think that's the truth for me too. But I click it all the time. I don't use it all the time because then I know that it will go into the ashen heap that I will never look at. I don't know if I look at it. I look at it. I press the button. And I have like from 2011 a syndicate sims let's play. Yeah. Yeah. Episode like eight or something. Was this saved in 2011? Like it's yeah, yeah, yeah. You're on the YouTube account you've always used. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:16 My main YouTube channel is the channel I've had since I had had YouTube. It's your real algorithm, right? Except for my first channel. I wish I wasn't bullied. Oh, to delete your account. I would have been on my original channel, and that would be really special. It's funny that you say that. Because you're a bully.
Starting point is 00:03:33 I hurt people, hurt people. Yes. You've become what you hate. Wait, how am I bully? You already agreed to it. I feel like we can move on. I feel like you know the answer. Let's get something straight.
Starting point is 00:03:43 This friend group is extremely dysfunction. functional in some pockets of the universe. Aiden and I are the nice ones. You guys are the mean ones. And we bully this shit out of each other. You are not the nice one. Meen and are the nice ones. He is the nice one. You are not the nice ones. We're both the nice ones. You guys are the means. You have me to let them talk today. Yeah. I mean, audio listeners don't want to hear you, Aidan.
Starting point is 00:04:03 I came into the office. Nick was here because we have to do this at 10 a.m. It's 10.30. It's not a big deal. By the way, every time, I know exactly how you feel. And I feel the exact same way. but the moment it leaves my mouth, I'm like, what am I saying? I had to do it in 10. My job I do once a week.
Starting point is 00:04:23 No, it's like whatever, but I was, and it's, I come in and the AC is blasting, and it's a little cold, which is fine. And I said,
Starting point is 00:04:33 you know how I know Aden's not here and is somewhere else out of the country? It's because the fucking AC is on. I don't know why he does this. He's practicing being European. I think it is.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Because they don't have units. Or, He has the same thing that applies. He keeps it on or he turns it off? He doesn't climate control his environment ever. So whatever the temperature is, it's just is what it is. And I think he applies the same thing where it's like, you know how he's looking at a screen and everything else just becomes the teacher from Charlie Brown.
Starting point is 00:05:01 He does that with his body and his mind. But you agree with him because you're wearing jacket. You prefer to a Z. I don't agree with him because this AC was tuned. It was turned on. He does not touch climate control. I think slime would rather be cold and have the ability to control that with a jacket than be hot and have nothing you can do.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Typically, yes, indoors. Yes, indoors. I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, Aden is kind of bad. You are playing, I know what you're doing. What you do in the podcast is you play a foil, so we're not three guys shading on one guy who's not here in vice section. I play a Floyd. I play a Floyd, and now what do you want to say to me? Oh, I love Floyd.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Wow. What's your move? You remember those tweets? Yeah. You see a 10 out of 10 bombshell Floyd behind the counter at the local coffee shop. How do you open?
Starting point is 00:05:53 It's an AI woman with 17 fingers. What's your opener? She's handing you a coffee. The coffee has fingers too. Wow, lots of fingers on that hand. Those fell off really quick because they're like, Manosphere shit still has to feel a little authentic.
Starting point is 00:06:08 It can't just be raw. Like, what's your opener, guys? Like that Carlos Oscelot guy from G2. He deleted a lot of his old videos. Is he still active? I don't know. Oh my God, I forgot.
Starting point is 00:06:19 He existed, man. Right. His last name's an animal. Yeah, it's a small, I think it's a cat. The Dark Souls 3 loss. Yeah, invisible man. Awesome. He had an invisible son.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Yes. Yeah. It's like one of the only ones that talks to you while you fight him. He's for the Antony Graves. So this guy, there was this old video that me and Miles quoted all the time, because he was talking about
Starting point is 00:06:42 this hypothetical situation where he's on a date with like a Russian supermodel who's 19 I've heard this yeah because we said it all the time it's gone it's gone if you can find it if there's an archive of this guy and you for some reason fucking have it yes and then what was it again
Starting point is 00:06:58 he come on give us a taste he was on a dinner date with her and then he did something she did something that made him mad so he's like I will God what was it was something so petty but he's like I would just take her home Never talk to her again.
Starting point is 00:07:13 I buy the Uber black to let her know I have money. And then I send her home and I said, I hope you got home well. Block her. That was it. That was it. It was, it was,
Starting point is 00:07:21 it was, I buy her the Uber, not the Uber black. She didn't deserve it. She did, that's right. I get her the Uber X-Sel. Not because I'm not broke.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Memory is so complicated. You know where I bet this tweet lives on? I bet there's a screenshot in your DM with Miles or something. It's a screenshot, but it's a video. Oh, it's a video. The video itself is gone.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Which is tough. That is tough. Because, again, the guy was just too cringe to hack it in like Manosphere Grifting, which is kind of, it's a layup if you know what you're doing. I think Manusphere grifting has a shelf life. No, I think it's an always food. There's always going to be insecure teenage boys who, who's, I'm saying like, I don't know anyone who's doing it for a day game.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I mean, Clivicular is doing it the baddest. He's the baddest in the game. I don't think he's doing Manosphere stuff. He is, it's a little different. Oh, it's a little different. Because he also, like, in some ways, rejects masculinity. Like he wears makeup and puts makeup on the street. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Yes. And that's a different. No, no. He's, it was Andrew Tate. He was the baddest in the case. I think he's name's Andrew Wilson. Um,
Starting point is 00:08:24 I think he's Tate. I'm kidding. I don't know who you're talking about. I think you got this one. I was afraid you'd take that earnestly. No, the, I don't, he's in,
Starting point is 00:08:34 um, I think it's like the whatever podcast. It's the guy who went to super viral because oh, the guy with the, he said, you lick sniz. Oh,
Starting point is 00:08:41 that guy. That guy? Dude, that guy is crazy. That guy is crazy. Ulyss Niz. Yeah. You like SNZ! Can you find the ULick Sniz video?
Starting point is 00:08:53 That is such a crazy man. Well, he just got it into another public humiliation ritual yesterday. Was it, did he say it again? No, no, no, no. He did a debate against Candace Owens. Oh my God. Does she?
Starting point is 00:09:10 She destroys him. Oh, not my question, but great to know. Candice Owens is to say something? We're going to just like believe in UFOs? I was going to ask if he could say that same thing to her as some sort of attempt to hurt her. I didn't watch it. I just ended my marathon stream,
Starting point is 00:09:28 and then I scrolled social media for three hours uninterrupted. That's good. And I found out that they did a debate, and apparently he paid for the debate. He paid her $500,000 for the debate. Oh, damn. $1,000? I think the debate was about specifically Tyler Robinson's assassination of Charlie Kirk and whether he did it or not.
Starting point is 00:09:48 And he was like, he did it. And she's like, nope. Whoa. He didn't do it. But yeah, that's, but anyway, that he got embarrassed again. And now. And now it's kind of like when people are complimenting to me at Professor you where they're like, I don't watch what this is great. It's like, wow, I don't agree with Candace Owens.
Starting point is 00:10:06 But I love this meltdown that he's having because of her. It's so easy to win people. The internet has it famously short memory and a famously long one simultaneously. And you have a famously big one. Talking about your belly. Now it gets big. This might, is it a sciop? Is it like a, like, remember when Tucker Carlson was talking to?
Starting point is 00:10:30 Who was he talking to? When everyone was just like, Tucker, Tucker's kind of spitting in this interview. Who was he talking to? I think it was Benchapid. No, it was Ted Cruz maybe? Oh. I don't know. Was it Ted Cruz?
Starting point is 00:10:41 I don't know. It doesn't, it's not interesting if we can't remember. Part of me thinks it's like the, the real, like the powerful people are talking to the lull cows and the lull cows are like, yeah, destroy me in a bait. Dude, do whatever you fucking need to do to me, you know? And that's how they went over like public opinion. Yeah, lull cows can really, I believe that each lull cow can turn it around. The avatar intro? If a lull cow is, if a lull cow was tipped, they could be stood back up on their four feet.
Starting point is 00:11:07 They could rise once again. This low cow will unite them all. Just scramble to your feet in the barn. I talked to Hirshin, who we were talking to this guy basically who wanted the Tungsten Cube. Long story. Big one, small one.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Big one. But he ran a clipping channel and he was talking about how the clipping thing works because I didn't know. I didn't know how it works. You're talking about astro-turfed? Astro-turfed clips.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Yeah. In the process of how it goes. Have you seen the Drake barks or meows for a goth mommy? Yeah, and I've seen Drake barks to the tune of Not Like Us. Okay. That was the other clip. W's in the shot.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Asher-durf clip. They kick paid and a lot of money to get that kick, that clip spread around. And then I think they just, you know. And the result was just the woman got cyber bullied. Oh, that's always the result, though. It's just, it's just, a kick is probably just like, dude, double win. There's like, I don't know, it's turning into like you can own a piece of businesses that do this. It used to be like kind of like a discord thing.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Like you just, you know, like it happens within this little hole. No, no, no, it's big. Now they offer like a million dollars and they pay per impression and it's fixed. And then you have to come and say this how many impressions I got and then you get your money. So wait, are you saying that Drake got a piece of barking to not like us? Barking to not like us is probably like a free. out of love of the game post. That was like a Twitter
Starting point is 00:12:41 like some random account made it. Okay. It went pretty big. Wow. I mean, Drake, if Drake is on a live stream, he got a piece of whatever all of it. I think. W's in the shot. I mean, he probably's got like a billion dollars from Steak. Yeah. I think he probably has has Drake made more money from
Starting point is 00:13:00 steak? Or his one of his biggest albums. Steak. Yeah, albums don't make me. I think he's made more from stake than... I don't know. I mean, the people, the amount of rights he sells on a single song on like one album like that. I think he's made more of a mistake than his entire music
Starting point is 00:13:16 career, bro. You think? I think. I think that. Blood of McDubbin. Do you fucking think? I dead ass think that. Because that's interesting. Because then here's my question for you. Oh. Okay. Do you think train wreck has made more than Drake's music career? Yes.
Starting point is 00:13:32 Wow. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. And when he gets flashed on Mirage on A-site, his face looks crazy. It does look crazy. It's a great clip. He's never bought, for all the money he has, he's never bought a light. That is so,
Starting point is 00:13:44 I was such an interesting. He's never bought one. Is he the baddest in Toronto? Of course the baddest in Toronto. He's not from Toronto. Well, he is now. He is? Might as well.
Starting point is 00:13:54 He goes, he owns the whole bitch. I might as well, you, dude, the money train makes you can talk to the prime minister in Brownface. What? Again. Mike Johnson? The new one? Yeah,
Starting point is 00:14:04 it's a thing they do. They just shouldn't have took pictures. That's part of the Canadian political system. I think the answer is that he has probably made more money. He's made a fuck ton. Which is the answer to the- It's like all he posts about. Do you think, so my initial feeling of this is like, wow, what a pathetic thing.
Starting point is 00:14:24 A guy who has everything is addicted to gambling. And then I think about myself. And I'm not addicted to gambling, but I have the DNA strand that makes that happen. If you were bored enough. If I was bored enough or like crazy rich enough. And, but I think I would never display this gambling on, you know, I would never like, gambling is something you should do quietly and secretly. You believe this, which isn't true, right?
Starting point is 00:14:49 Like you, it's not, it's not an act that you should do shamed, like, like masturbating. No, not like masturbating. It's more that like, to broadcast your masturbation, you can, like, for instance, you go to the casino and there's everyone playing blackjack. And it's like you're going to the masturbation. You go to the masturbation table. You go to the masturbation palace. But you know, and you're like, oh, look at all these masturbation games.
Starting point is 00:15:14 And tools. I'm about to play. And toys and things that help. This one's got, and you go and you sit down with all these people. Triple zero. And they're masturbating. And there's a masturbating mansor. And he kind of directs and guides it for you.
Starting point is 00:15:27 And he actually, you play against the house. And this is like, yes, this is fine. This is all fine. But when you start going online. Don't fucking slow stroke me. Doing the digital masturbation and it's like, and you're like getting paid to do it. Ah.
Starting point is 00:15:44 But you're also the guy when we're all masturbating at the table. Yeah. And we're all in the dealer busts. And we all busts. We all busts. We all busts. Okay. Because the dealer busts.
Starting point is 00:15:55 So we busts. Everyone busts in some way. Okay. That you would be the one to disappear. Excuse me? And maybe you go to private table. Isn't this what he's saying? As well?
Starting point is 00:16:08 But I'm saying he does this in person. And what I'm saying is that maybe that isn't what gambling should be. Because I found this, Cudy's brothers also like this. Cudy's brother, we're all sitting down on the table. We're all gambling. And he goes, there you go. Gets up, find him in the high roller table. You're saying, you're saying gambling shouldn't be chasing the win.
Starting point is 00:16:31 It should be the time spent. Yes. Yeah. No, I mean, look. It should be the hangout. We're there because we can win. money. Let's not pretend it's like, oh, we're all just getting together. It's the fact that we're together. It's like, no, we're at a table. What are you talking about? I don't know if that's why I'm there.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Yeah, it's not why you're there. You won money. You won it by being handsome and awesome. Yeah. Yes. Throughout 31 years, you won all the money. You won all the money. I'm there for the good times. But what I'm saying is, I see what happens at the piggy slot. I don't scuttle away to the solo masturbation experience. I end up there because the action's moving too slow. But when like you and me were playing at the table, I was like, that was perfectly fine. I didn't want to leave that environment. And if it's a table full of five people
Starting point is 00:17:14 and there's no bullshit going on, I'm like, yeah, let's go. Like some fun talk that one guy that talked about how 9-11 was crazy and he stopped all the action to talk about 9-11 and everyone was just looking at him and the dealer was just looking at him. And he said, please let me finish this story.
Starting point is 00:17:30 He said, it was fucking insane. And I'm like, you don't get to, I don't care that you live through 9-11. I don't care because you also weren't even there. You were just in New York City You weren't in fucking Manhattan I don't fucking care And it was really terrible
Starting point is 00:17:43 For him to do that I heart 9-11 I heart 9-11 And I wasn't really at the building But I was in Brooklyn And I saw the smoke Into the pants Into the pants
Starting point is 00:17:54 And if I would have been there I definitely would have done something Dealer, please let me finish Lookie I heard the vending machine was gas in that building It's a tragedy Pissing me off So, no, I disagree with you said.
Starting point is 00:18:09 But online gambling, you find different. Even if you're online, it's getting paid for it. It's the most, it's the worst part of it all, I think. And again, I'm a guy who loves gambling. So when I hear about Bruno Mars, and I don't know if this is a rumor or not, because people can't seem to really confirm it, but Bruno Mars is apparently, in rumors, lost millions of, tens of millions of millions of dollars gambling.
Starting point is 00:18:31 And that's kind of beautiful. The fact that you just lost all that money because you fucking love that shit, or you're addicted to some crazy shit. And you're not going on Instagram and you're not making steak shit. I think maybe what the essence of what you're saying is, raw essence, what's called.
Starting point is 00:18:47 I think the essence of what you're trying to say is, is like, if you're going to gamble, you either win or you lose and the winning is like awesome, nice, I won. And the losing is like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:18:56 I suffer for that. But when you turn it into content, you are trying to have it both ways where you both lose, but also it doesn't matter because you are winning by, by the, you're essentially getting rewarded to get other people to start gambling.
Starting point is 00:19:10 You don't even try to have it both ways. You just get it both ways. And that's cowardly to you. Yeah, I think so. Because the fun and gambling is staking something and losing something. Now, this is not to say people who do this do not lose at all, because they do all the time.
Starting point is 00:19:25 There's stories of smaller people, right? We talk about the titans of this planet, train, X. These gods, really. Too big to fail. Yeah. Yeah. But there are, there's so, many slain. So many comptisms
Starting point is 00:19:37 who have fallen. Comptisms beneath them who really just quietly lost it all. And it's like, sure, okay, that is what it is. But when it happens to someone, so I'm taking this, I'm thinking Bruno Mars and Drake. What Bruno Mars is doing is fucking noble.
Starting point is 00:19:53 That five foot man losing millions at a fucking some crazy high roller table at Caesar's Palace. Quietly. Quietly. Unpaid. And he's just like, damn, I got to put out an album, bro. He walks out of casino being like, I gotta fucking make some music. He was like, up to, up, upto, up.
Starting point is 00:20:12 I'll dance for you. He's like calling up Saudi Arabian princes to like do concerts. He's like, do you want me? Now to open the East Sports Awards. Bruno. All right, guys, you said I had to hand a lunch today. Here you go. I got you all one big burger.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Really? Yeah, it was a hundred and three. $150. $150 for the extra burger? For one burger. And you guys, I figured it's a big enough burger we can all share it.
Starting point is 00:20:41 I'd be honest with you, Nick, I feel like. You gave me the company credit card. You said, go handle lunch. I got you the big burger. I've been meaning to speak up about this. I think you have an issue
Starting point is 00:20:50 with malicious compliance. Was it $150 or $150,000 or $150,000? There's an easy. It's an expensive burger nonetheless. There's an easy way to deal with this instead of sending you to do things wrong. We eat the burger. We can just try fuel.
Starting point is 00:21:04 We just try that. How does that make things easier? This is a meal replacement. You mix it into water, and this is basically your lunch. There's 40 grams of protein. You can mix it with milk, too, and you only need 30 seconds. But the burger has like 6,000 grams of protein. I'd rather have what Aiden has, because this, you had it delivered.
Starting point is 00:21:23 To be honest, it has a lot more sodium, probably. I don't. I can't deal with this anymore. The guy who delivered it was on a motorcycle, and he was just holding it under his arm. That's Mr. Burger. That's not Mr. Burger. You know what, Nick, you don't even need to do the mixing. If you're too lazy to do that, you could get pre-mixed versions that are already have 35 grams of protein, 27 essential vitamins and minerals, ready to drink now.
Starting point is 00:21:51 Yeah, all of that sounds way better. Instead of spending three hours going to get us this burger. Wait, but I had, I had to get a U-Haul to bring the burger here. That was like an extra $45. I want to kill it. Is it? Does that need a U-Haul to bring it here? H-U-E-L? Is that what it says?
Starting point is 00:22:07 That sounds way better than this thing. You have wasted money. You've wasted time, and also this is starting to stink. I don't know. Well, yeah, I bought it a week ago. Oh, my God. Because you guys told me to handle lunch next week. It's disgusting.
Starting point is 00:22:19 I just bought it that day. If you want a reasonable, a reasonable meal replacement, a limited time offer right now, you can make healthy eating simple. Get Huell today with my exclusive offer of 15% off online with code the yard at huel.com slash the yard. that's h uel.com slash the yard new customers only thank you for huel i'm still not convinced it's more convenient than a burger that lasts us a lifetime i hate you it wouldn't be a lifetime even if we all ate it fresh it would be like for a day and then we'd feel shitty all day and then yingling would
Starting point is 00:22:50 throw up and then there would be a big rotting burger on the set that zipper would have to fuel and big burger tie let's go back to the episode but well we have to get a hazmat team to take this stinking shit out of our office and then you see it you think you think the opposite is you have Drusie Drake. And I think Drusie Drake has suffered a generational oral loss in many ways, obviously. But gambling is like a big part of that deal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:14 Because Stake says here's $500 million. Yeah. And then he's like doing streams and he's in a penhouse and it's like, I don't know, it feels like an or loss. But then you get W's in the shot. Ws in the shot. I think that's good. Dabies in the SHH.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Drake is interesting because he, I think he's like, you remember he's an actor. when you see him on camera because he's like so confident in money when he's on camera. Yeah. But at the same time, I think he's one of those rappers
Starting point is 00:23:39 that moves mysteriously, traditionally. Like he's, you know, you don't hear him in the press saying stuff very often. Like a Playboy Cardi, but not as mysterious as Playboy Cardi.
Starting point is 00:23:50 So when he pops out for a steak stream, you realize it's like, oh, you're not moving in silence like lasagna. No. You just believe that's how you make more money as an artist. So when the money gets involved, you're as public as any selection.
Starting point is 00:24:03 He doesn't do anything public and then it's a stake change. He's like, what up chat? Yeah. What are we betting today? What up chat? Is in a way the most humiliating thing you can do? To me, it removes anything I ever liked about Drake. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Imagine Timothy Chalmay going, what up chat? I think he, I think you can find that clip. I think you can too. Dude, it's the what up chat test and it's to see if they've lost all their aura. If they've ever said what up chat. And you just go through every celebrity and see if they said what up chat. The Timothy Shalome made custom Xbox controllers Is the Dr. Mario Nair of like pop culture fun fact
Starting point is 00:24:39 Right now. It is like Timothy Jalami pops up And someone's like, did you know that he? And it's like, yes, everyone knows that. We all have seen that. There's a timeline where Indy Never Ready was in your chat. W's in the chat. Just because she streamed on Twitch.
Starting point is 00:24:54 She's stream on Twitch. She does stream on Twitch. She's a big fan of people you're like tangentially. Like she's a big Valemaze fan. We need her on this fucking podcast. Why do we get to work? I'm not kidding. If she follows me, you have a chance.
Starting point is 00:25:04 If she doesn't, you have zero chance. And I'm guessing... Zero! Yeah, I'm not going to do the work for you. You know how fucking money you are? You're not sure if she does or doesn't. That is how late you are. Do you understand?
Starting point is 00:25:15 I assume it's no. If she followed me, let my girlfriend be wearing a t-shirt that says it. You know, I would know. It's no, dude. It's a no. She doesn't follow you? She don't follow me. Can you do?
Starting point is 00:25:27 Wait, wait. Follow her. No. No, no, no, no. Or a loss. No, it's not. Or a lot. I love your obsession.
Starting point is 00:25:34 I love to your obsession. I have, I, you know what? I watched most of Inception yesterday. Yeah? Yeah. I'm upset about it's so insulting.
Starting point is 00:25:42 I watched most of it. We lost our chance. I watched most of this movie that I got wrong. The only excuse is that you could be like, I got so scared I turned it off. No, no, no. I was on TikTok and I just kept
Starting point is 00:25:54 getting TikToks that was like, that was like, did you know that bear was the villain? And I've never seen the movie. And so I was like, why is Bear the villain? name bear. I don't know because all I've seen before that was no, no, no, no. But did you watch it in shorts? Yeah, yeah, because then I was like, wise bear the villain. And then, and then there's like a scene that's like, this is why bear the villain. But I was like, oh, I don't
Starting point is 00:26:15 know the context. So that I was like, what's the context of that? And then I was like, oh, okay. So there was, oh, so he's a guy. He made a wish. And then she became possessed. And then, but then he was like raping her because he was having sex with possessed her. And then, And then she was fucking killing people. And then it ended. And then she was her and she was left at the hole. And he could have stopped it, but he didn't stop. Yeah, that's the movie.
Starting point is 00:26:42 So you, so when you said, when you said, I watched most of obsession, what you meant was, I watched it on YouTube shorts. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. But I've only seen like 10 minutes. It's an HR me moment. Because if Aiden said this, I think I'd kill him. But I think you saying it, it's quirky. Can I defend myself?
Starting point is 00:27:01 Yeah, of course. I truly do not enjoy horror movies, which is why I've skipped most horror movies. Why? I don't like... I don't like the feeling. I, it sits with me. It sits with me. Do you believe in ghosts in your life?
Starting point is 00:27:14 Yes. Wow. I don't think you do. I, slime, I checked my closet every day until I moved out of my mother's house. I would pay for that footage. For ghosts or marauders. I'd pay for footage of you, like, in your house and, like, frightened and, like, checking a closet. Dude, yes.
Starting point is 00:27:31 I want to see you. It wasn't like, it was like, it was like systematic. It was like every night, if I go to open the closet, boom, boom, check under the Toronto bed. Then I go through every door and make sure they're locked. In your list of best friends, I'm at least top 10. And I've never seen you like that. I've never seen you genuinely scared. Well, so now I avoid, I avoid it.
Starting point is 00:27:51 I avoid it. I avoid, I don't like, I don't like true crime. Like, you know when there was that, that there's that YouTube channel that every streamer is watching? EWC. No, that's the E-Sports World Cup. No, no, no. It's also called that. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:28:04 It's like the deep voice and it's like only police cam or only interviews with people who commit murders. It's J something though. It's not, there's not. Is it? Yeah. You say, any memory hold, the EWZ is really funny. I really got it's an E. Am I crazy?
Starting point is 00:28:17 Yeah, they all. They'll watch Kobayon crush the big key after losing. It's like, the name of the channel is like a phrase. It's like a, yeah, yeah. Some sort of catchphrase. But anyway, I skip all that. I skip all horror. I learned this about you today.
Starting point is 00:28:31 Today I learned that you don't like horror I don't like horror We were talking earlier about what if Like 10 years in the future You end up cheating on cutie Cinderella With your smart house Yeah Yeah
Starting point is 00:28:43 Like it wakes you up in the morning And it's like It's time to eat it Ludwig Do you mean like the movie Wake up featuring Megan Fox Megan Fox I don't know about that one
Starting point is 00:28:55 No we're talking about smart house The Disney Channel original movie So I'm literally like what am I fuck in the house Anything whole? Something is happening. There is an emotional at the very least connection with the house and yourself
Starting point is 00:29:08 and it's a smart house and it goes, wake up, Ludwig, wake up. EWU. It's time to eat it, Ludwig. Explore with us. Will you? I think.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Will you? At first, at first it's like he's brushing his teeth in the mirror and the smart mirrors talking to him. He's like, what do I got today? Smart house? Like, oh, you got a couple things today.
Starting point is 00:29:28 You got this, this. and maybe show it to me. Yeah. And then the lighting on your smart mirror also like starts to warm up and it's like looking good today. Give it you small little compliments. And then a month later, you got your, you're pinching your nut sack skin into an outlet. Yeah. And putting it in the outlet.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Because what house are you going to fuck the house? And she's like, oh, I like that. I like. She's like what you like. Whatever you like is what I like. I don't think I would... Do you think you would find out? Yes.
Starting point is 00:30:02 What? A yes, 100%. Can you probably already thinks you're doing that? No. And just like, she's like laying awake and you're just half asleep. She's like, are you cheating on me with a house? Are you fucking the house? Just tell me if you are.
Starting point is 00:30:18 Did you fuck the house? I just want to hear if you are. I don't be mad. I don't think you fuck the house by putting your nut second to an outlet. Then how would you fuck the house? I think... Mr. fucking house fucker? Well, I'm not a house fucker, so I wouldn't know.
Starting point is 00:30:28 but if I were a house fucker guy who clearly thought about fucking his house. That's not how I'd do it. I'm not a house fucker. I just think you probably go to the, ooh, you probably go to the sink disposal. The garbage disposal?
Starting point is 00:30:40 Like the sink, like the sink hole with the black thing and then under the garbage disposal. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But, well, like, but you don't want to put the garbage disposal on. The sinkerator?
Starting point is 00:30:51 Yeah. But if the smart house is mad at you, they can turn on the garbage disposal and really fuck up your life. That being the only place you can fuck the smart house is a dangerous horrible game. Yes. I would fuck other way. I would,
Starting point is 00:31:03 maybe you would, I think you could suck on something. Maybe you suck on my smart house is a guy and I'm soaking on it. I think he does suck on something. I'm not kidding. I think this is a good question. You know what you suck on? You know those little things that are outside and it's a little like thing that comes out of the ground
Starting point is 00:31:21 about half a foot and it houses some sort of thing. Maybe it's like a sprinkler system. But it's like a plastic domed housing. You suck on that. Or you bounce on that shit. You bounce on that shit. You can't fit that whole thing in your mouth.
Starting point is 00:31:35 You bounce on it for sure. Fucking and sucking shit outside. If it's part of the house, it's like totally, if you think about it, our penises are outside. You probably bounce on the sprinkler. Penises are inside.
Starting point is 00:31:44 No, our penis are outside. Like, it's my body. That's like saying your hand is outside. If I have a huge fucking raw, nasty blower, then that's outside. It's inside. It's outside. It's like, is this outside?
Starting point is 00:31:55 Because if you were to run a giant blade across my body, my penis gets cuts off that's outside. What are you saying? You're saying the hand isn't outside? I'm saying that hand is inside. What's outside? Is there anything that's outside? Hair. What? If the penis is outside and hair is outside.
Starting point is 00:32:09 The hair is outside, but the hand is not outside. Yeah. What about the skin? Skin is... That's inside. It's... That doesn't count. It's like annoying because it's like what is the wood of a house inside or outside.
Starting point is 00:32:20 It's both. That bastardizes the whole discussion. You don't get to say that. It's both. You don't say that. The wood on the outside. Outside is on, but there's probably drywall on the inside. What?
Starting point is 00:32:30 Right. Yeah, but wood's still inside and outside. So interesting. Woods outside. Woods also inside. Yes. But also, I think I have a good play.
Starting point is 00:32:38 A good play here is you suck on that thing outside. And if the house moans, you know you found something good. What? I feel like you don't care about this conversation as much as I do, which is totally fine. Maybe where the, um,
Starting point is 00:32:51 maybe where the dryer, like vents to outside. It always smells kind of like laundry and it's like warm. Take a dump in there. It's a house, bro. You can do whatever you want. A sexual dump, you really can. You can explore anything that you want.
Starting point is 00:33:04 You can dump in the crawl space of your home. No one can stop you. Sexually. And you can say that was a sexual act. You took it. Wait, wait, wait. You took it dumping me. Why is it so funny?
Starting point is 00:33:19 Good dump, love. Smart House loved it. I wouldn't cheat on my fiancé with my house. What about your wife? Also no. Dude, she was bad as hell. She was bad as hell. She was bad as hell.
Starting point is 00:33:32 If they remade this movie, it'd be Sydney fucking Sweeney. Yep. That's Fri's girlfriend, by the way. And she'd have a scene where she's crying. Yeah. Oh, dude. Obsession with Sidney, but it's a smart house. And also, Bear is still the villain.
Starting point is 00:33:48 And Ludwig watches it all in shorts. And there's like, you ever notice in those shorts, there's like in the very back of the clip, there's a really quiet person describing what's happening. You notice this? No. I don't watch these. So a lot of these like short forms about like movies,
Starting point is 00:34:04 you'll, if you listen closely, there's like a voice that's like happening. And I used to think that the voice was them trying to mix up copyright signals. But really, it's for blind people who, really? Who like there's a voice in the background that's like like describing literally what's happening.
Starting point is 00:34:21 I don't think it's for blind people. But listen to what it's saying. No, no, I know. know. What is it for that? I watch them. I don't know. I think it's still, I don't know if it's copyright or I don't know. I don't know if it's like, I don't know. I was told that it's for blind people because like they have such a heightened sense of sound that they can process both of those voices. How many blind people are scrolling shorts? That's what my question is. What the fuck else are they doing? Is there a blind algorithm? They're right. They're, well, you're chilling. Well,
Starting point is 00:34:47 I mean, that's what you do when you chilling, blind. Chilling listen in the shit. You know what I do if I was blind, I listened to the radio. How crazy would that be? Yeah, I mean, it's perfect for you. You enjoy it the same way everyone else does. You'd listen, you'd literally be listening to this podcast. It'd be like TV for your ears. But I feel like you're not scrolling because so many things you scroll require the context of the visual.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Straight up, if you're blind and you listen to this podcast, sound off. Oh, if I was blind, I'd watch the fuck out of Atrioc. This guy sounds healthy. God, I hope he looks how he sounds. No, you can hear his hair. I don't care. You can hear that shit. One that he takes his heads off air back guys, you hear a scrape. And you're like,
Starting point is 00:35:29 because you have heightened hearing sense, you can hear the air move across his headphone dent differently. And you're like, oh, that guy's bald. And you never watch me again. I don't believe it. Believe what? I think my hearing's as good as any blind persons. I thought about this yesterday on the toilet.
Starting point is 00:35:46 I'm not kidding. I was like, what if I went blind today? What would I do all day for the rest of my life? and I'd say I'd become amazing at an instrument. Have you seen those clips of them shooting basketballs? Have you seen a blind person, like, shoot a free throw? Yeah, yeah. They have someone who, like, takes a stick and, like, smacks the rim.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Okay. Oh, yeah. Like the sound waves. Shouldn't it be like a... It's like a boba challenge where they'd go tap, tap, and they hit it with a straw. But with basketball. What if it was just like a click all the time? You're saying they hit it with a stick.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Maybe that's like a rec league? Because, like, pro-blind basketball should be some sort of click device. Like, they all have it. Yeah, this is what I'm talking about Oh, this is at school Yeah, this is low, Elo, blind free throws I want to see high Elo blind free throws
Starting point is 00:36:29 Like blind dude perfect Yes, blind dude blind It's like the cameras over here And it's like, what's up guys? What's up guys? What about do perfect? Today I'm just gonna throw this shit About four million times
Starting point is 00:36:42 and I hope that shit goes in It's such a hard thing to be is blind But to be blind dude perfect is like, is an achievement of human spirit? Blind dude perfect. I want one of them to be my pastor. He's holding a bowling ball.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Today we're dropping a basketball off the Eiffel Tower. It's not the Eiffel Tower. It's off the top of it. It's like Costco. Which dude perfect guy would you want to be the pastor for your wedding? One of the twins. Really? Can I be the other twin?
Starting point is 00:37:17 One of the twins. one I asked for is on the one I get. And that's figure it out. They look different. One of them has like work done. I think it's Kobe. His work done? I think he has cheek work done.
Starting point is 00:37:30 I want to, I'd love to be the beard, but I don't know I'm not the beard. Who would I be? I'm dude perfect. It's like, I don't know all their names admittedly. You would be the,
Starting point is 00:37:40 uh, you would be the, the, like the tall blonde guy. Mm. Did you show us to do you, please? Yeah,
Starting point is 00:37:47 We see cast of Dude Perfect. Full cast image. I think I would be obviously the bald guy who wears a hat a lot. We've done this segment. He's way too tall though. We have probably done this section. It's okay to come back to it.
Starting point is 00:37:59 I'm interested if our answers are consistent. Because Dude Perfect is an institution by now. Yeah, they are. I do hate how the guy in the middle always wears a little... I know you are. A little... Yeah, yeah. He's the bald guy on the top right.
Starting point is 00:38:13 Nick, you would be the guy on the top lefts. And then Aiden would be the twins. So one of the twins has different eyes, reptile-like. Yeah, you do say that, that's it. I've said this before. You said he has reptile eyes. You say that of people. I do.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Tell me I'm wrong that the guy in the right does not look like a dragon kin. They're on a tour right now. Well, I think it was Nick a years ago was begging us to go on the dude perfect cruise. Yeah, no one with me. That's so insane. The dude proof, I mean, come on, bro. Do you think Northern's Lion was on it? No.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Dude, maybe Loki was secretly on it. And he was like, I should do this one of the day. I straight up don't think he would get recognized on that cruise. No. I think the Vengueygdram does not. Yeah, yeah, there's zero overlap. Do you think they were throwing like ping pong balls and shit? Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:39:01 On the cruise. There is probably like extreme cornhole instead of cornhole. Yeah. And stuff like that. Cruise perfect. Dude, that's probably, it probably smells crazy. Dude, they have cruise stereotypes as a video. Because a big part of their channel,
Starting point is 00:39:16 I don't know if you know this. A big part of their channel is like, like, every dad. Oh, look at his family and they're all matching. It's like Facebook humor. Jesus Christ. They've been running this stick for I'm not shitting you, maybe 12 years. This is sponsored because it said thanks to Disney Cruises for this. Yeah, it's for sure sponsored, bro. Fancy dinner.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Oh, yeah, this is ultranormy. Ultra normy parent content, yeah. But dude perfect. I like the Thai subtitles. Cudies and nephews. They can watch three YouTube channels. This is one of them. Yeah, I guess that's why they make it.
Starting point is 00:39:48 It's this. It's Mr. Beast and it's Jesser. Jesser? Dude, they're going to be so good at like sports. Yeah. Soon. Yeah, they're going to be real knowledgeable about it. Jester's like the basketball guy. Like me and Luca Donchich and Ludwig are going to see who, right?
Starting point is 00:40:06 Yeah, yeah. Are going to look at five basketball players wearing ski masks and try to figure out which is the NBA player. This is alternate realities could have been flight 23 white. Yes. Why? because I think flight is not the... Flight does one or two ones against his ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's what Flight does, which is much different than what Jester does. Much more interesting. Yes, I agree. Thank you. But Jester makes something more appealing for a larger audience.
Starting point is 00:40:33 Jester's is a much more well-packaged thing. People are cattle. Because how do you not find Flights take on basketball content more interesting? Well, you don't know who Jester is, for one. As described?
Starting point is 00:40:49 He seems fine. He's fine. He's very nice. He's very sweet. He's very successful. 50 million subscribers. Damn. 50 million.
Starting point is 00:40:57 Guys, so we've been playing a lot of counter strike, you know, because this episode will be out when that's the truth. And we've been having a lot of trouble communicating, okay? No. Yeah. It's been flawless, probably. I can't imagine who the problem is in the stack with the communication. And I want to make a suggestion because I just found out about this.
Starting point is 00:41:18 I think it could help. I think we should start using Quo. Do you want to use Quo and CounterStrike? Because some of us want to talk in game chat. Some of us want to talk in Discord. Some of us just want to yell in the room. Quo was designed for exactly this problem. It consolidates all of our communication challenges all into one place.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Yeah, today's episode is brought to you by Quo, the smarter way to run your business communications because Counterstrike is a business, isn't it? Defeating the terrorists is a business that all of us just had to work for. So how would this work? Can we actually go through it? Because Quo is the number one rated business phone system on G2 with over 3,000 reviews, right? It's a business thing. A team handles the calls and text from one shared number.
Starting point is 00:41:54 How do we make this work on Dust 2? So we all get into a shared number with Quo, and then because we are all a part of the same team, we can use that number to communicate with each other seamlessly. It doesn't sound easy. Is it easy? It's extremely easy. Calls, text, voicemails, transcripts, comms, flashes, nades, smallies all happen in one clean view. Harrigan probably uses Quo.
Starting point is 00:42:17 Yeah, I think all of mouse sports probably uses Pro. Probably. Okay, using Quo for a Mirage A execute, do you think we can become Navi? Oh, almost assured. Yeah, even on a save round when money is on the line, you can always say hello with Quo. Hello, T-Side.
Starting point is 00:42:40 If your business has money on the line, Quo can help consolidate all your different methods of communication in one platform. You can try Quo for free plus get 20% off your first six months when you go to Quo.com slash the yard. That's QUO.com slash the yard. Maybe we don't invite Josh to the Quo because he's just been ghost calming all week. Right. A quote you can exclude people from it. It's funny because we haven't even played and I'm pretty sure he's doing that.
Starting point is 00:43:07 He's already ghost calming. I'm positive actually. During flash. Like, well, I don't just throw it. Counter-terrorists win Back to the episode Dude YouTube is just filled I mean this is an obvious thing
Starting point is 00:43:19 It's a truism But there's just so many YouTubers This guy's huge But that are like There's thousands of YouTubers That hundreds of thousands of people watch That you never ever Ever will know about ever in your life
Starting point is 00:43:29 There's no shortage of audience Like there's just so many people Looking at their phone all day Can you look up Chis plays I was fucking dumping MR yesterday on Street Fighter and this came up in my algorithm and his name is Chis and he has 700,000 subs and he plays WeSport Striction and like it's like I was like and I became obsessed with him within an hour and so now every time I was losing with Akuma people say W. Chiz, L. Chis would be
Starting point is 00:44:00 proud of this. It seems like he does almost only WWE now. No, he has, he had a crazy one for for FIFA for the World Cup is like 700,000 views. You hit most popular? I respect that this guy like his biggest videos are like oh no, never mind. It's a lot of sports video game.
Starting point is 00:44:19 He has, okay, I thought that like he was just sticking to WWE even though no one's watching, but actually he has a passive success there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you click on it and he's just wearing a ref suit and he's wearing the stereotypical streamer room
Starting point is 00:44:32 that's kind of lit purple with the IKEA shelf. Actually, that we bowling them is weirdly fucking genius. It's so much better that there's a squiggly line.
Starting point is 00:44:40 You know what I mean? If the squiggly line wasn't there, it's a terrible one. Yeah, it's art, bro. Anyway,
Starting point is 00:44:46 I, it was just, I was dumping M.R. and just thinking about Chiz, which is probably why I was dumping M.R. And it's just
Starting point is 00:44:53 a crazy place, bro. Dude, this is the biggest go to the very top. This is just the biggest YouTuber cheese.
Starting point is 00:44:58 People have been doing this all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way, just the, let us overtake something. Like, he says,
Starting point is 00:45:06 Subscribe not so we can overtake Nintendo. He's at 255K when he made it, and then Nintendo's at 8.42 mil. Yeah, he hasn't updated that in a while either. No, but that's just like, it was like Ryan Trahan did it to pass Dr. Phil. Wasn't it, wasn't it, didn't it start with T-Series? It was, PewDiePie.
Starting point is 00:45:22 It was, no, because PewDiePie Defending from T-Series. PewDiePie was the biggest T-Series was going to pass, and they were defending PewDiePie Pied by being passed. That was the first time I ever, well, no, I guess, that was one of the first times I remember someone being like, don't let this person beat me. But before that, I guess YouTube used to have the top 100. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:41 So they used to be like, let's beat Smosh. You can still look up PewDie Pyrus C series and there's live video channels. Just. It still exists. Dude, his rap is so crazy. Who's in that fucking chat right now? Oh, man. Oh, does ever want to pull it up?

Listening to PewDie do an Indian accent for, or boy in a band do an indian, an accent for half a minute straight and being like who's the who remember oh my god remember who member i only know this because i did the whole eight-hour stream where i listened to all the influencers anthony fantano don't stay in school oh that video's amazing he he talks about maths

Starting point is 00:48:47 funny, laugh, magic of things. Dude, his haircut is crazy. Oh, let's just watch the most viewed. Watch the most viewed. So it's just like,
Starting point is 00:48:56 really big guys. Oh. Oh, it's AI. No, no, that's a real person. For Dubai Properties, www. W.W. Zammelect Properties.com.
Starting point is 00:49:15 Wow. So interesting. That's great. That's great, bro. Let's fucking go. Are there... Sam in the house? Are there people watching that not mindlessly?
Starting point is 00:49:24 Like, are there people who watch that laugh out loud and then like turn to their cousin and go, watch this funny video? Yeah, and then they subscribe. Yeah, of course. Wow. And they go, babe, look. Look. Look.
Starting point is 00:49:35 And then this person said, respect all men. because Allah made everyone fucking A. Four species of human in one screen. That's a meaner comment. That's crazy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:47 The first guy is just a tall black guy. Oh, look at that specie. That's so crazy. All varieties of person in one lift. It's a very international comment section. Yeah. Guys, we, I know AID is not here, but maybe it's better.
Starting point is 00:50:04 We need to talk about the composition for the C.S. marathon. Dude, I'm really not looking forward to this. Oh yeah, because Ludwig, you have to play and win 10 matches just to get your rank and you are struggling to win 10 matches. Where are we at now, sport? I, I just did a marathon for Liza P. I don't care. It's a great game, but I started to get a little frustrated and that isn't considering, you know, how much worse CS2 is going to be. Because I've been playing, bro. It sucks. You have to win 10 games to get your rank. What are you at?
Starting point is 00:50:39 I'm seeing the cheaters. I don't like the way people communicate in that game. I have the rank system's a sham. I fought against a 6K yesterday. Went 30 and 8. Great 6K. Sometimes you have a good day. Strong 6K.
Starting point is 00:50:54 We're hoping Josh steps up to that occasion. I have to win 10 games. I played 4 last night. I lost every one. You're 4 and... I'm 4 in like 12 or some shit. Oh my God, love it. So you, okay, so you have six to go.
Starting point is 00:51:07 But I've, I've had six to go. You know what I mean? Like, you have six to go is where you say, I've had six to go for a while. Dude, my win rate's 33%. We literally can't start the stream until you have a rank. Yeah, it would be, it would be a waste of everyone's time for you not to have a rank.
Starting point is 00:51:23 Yeah, I'll have Ingo playing for me. No, you don't. Yeah, he's going to get my six wins, just so I can get the rank. No, you don't. Don't. But everyone's going to be like. I abstain. Everyone's going to be like,
Starting point is 00:51:34 love it, because you got your play. placement from someone else. Uh-huh. And I'll just say you can go tank the rank. Tank the rank to the point where they stop. Get there and then tank it. Yeah, to where they stop complaining about it.
Starting point is 00:51:46 In what world, is that something you thought you could say to me? And I would look at you with respect and not spit in your mouth. Like a house. And I would take it. I would say it would be like the house sprinkler. Like a hot house that wants it.
Starting point is 00:51:58 When you drink the sprinkler from the house, that's the house spitting in your mouth. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You put your mouth on the sprinkling. What's the hose? come on.
Starting point is 00:52:07 Belas. Come on. What's the faucet? Come on. When you got to put your thumb on the house? So it comes out in like a thinner stream. No, dude, it's gonna suck. Well, okay.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Yeah, it'll suck. But like the thing is you talk about community, I'm looking forward to it because the worst part about CS is your teammates, right? Yes. And but our teammates are all our awesome friends that love each other very much. True.
Starting point is 00:52:29 And then, but I think, I don't know, what are you guys bringing to the table? we've talked about this before but I fired up a DM my name's not hot I was playing on the setup here yesterday I was setting up my PC
Starting point is 00:52:43 and I wasn't feeling great on the setup it was like nothing's nothing's wrong with it it's just different than everything part of it is different than my home setup so I was just a little bit rusty
Starting point is 00:52:53 and I haven't played it all this season should we do like a bit like because we're five stack right we do like Exodia but like that's obvious ones we're doing crazy I mean we should I think we're
Starting point is 00:53:04 the first match we should start with NASCAR. What do you mean? Have you ever done NASCAR? Yeah, he's, yeah, on Marash. But then it would need I guess you could do it on any map. Yeah, we could NASCAR, as long as you turn left. I thought you're looking for a name, like Exodia. Yeah, that's what I was talking about. A name? He's looking for a name. I thought, no, I thought you were talking about a strategy. Is Exodia strategy? Oh, no, I meant all of us
Starting point is 00:53:26 strategy is exactly. Exodia is when all five you stack one site and you all stack on each other's heads. You make Exodia. Oh, that's a, yeah, I forgot about Exodia. No, I was talking about the fact that we're a five stack and we only operate as a five stack on display names and PSPs. Oh, yeah, like when everyone in the team's name is red, yellow, and they have like the profile picture in the color. Let's just blow off CS2 and do a five-person seamless co-op of Eldon Ring.
Starting point is 00:53:51 I would not just not do that. That does not fun of me at all. And just start fucking up, Margaret. I forgot you can do that. Margaret can't even move. It's so easy, probably. We're just wailing on them. Just five naked twigs stabbing him with daggers.
Starting point is 00:54:06 All right, everyone charge your club. Dude, what would maybe be funny is seamless Eldon Ring, because it doesn't scale per player, right? What do you mean? Like, Marget's the same health bar and difficulty. No, they increase the health bar.
Starting point is 00:54:18 That's usually, but I don't know, I've never done that too. Dead ass? I don't know if they do because I'm playing it right now and it's the same. Oh, you can scale it. You can? Okay. It'd be funny to do.
Starting point is 00:54:27 They didn't turn it on. It'd be funny. I don't know how. Because there's no settings. Who would you play with? Alex. Oh, right, right. But it'd be funny to do like, if the yard does seamless
Starting point is 00:54:37 Elden ring, but we all have to use fists. Everything we fight, we have to punch it. It reminds me of Miles told me, because Miles used to run hardcore wow a lot, like way before the, he used to run it in private servers, and there was this guy, and it was like this legend of the man, he was trying to get to 60 in Wow classic, only using fists, just a naked man punching things.
Starting point is 00:55:00 and it takes, it's just, it's like a grind. It just, it takes a million years. And he died at like level 32 in Stranglethorn Vale by just punching guerrillas and too many guerrillas attacked him. And he lost the fight. It was just like, you got to just be like, I failed my challenge. You can't restart. No, but the hardcore guys is like, they just, they shrug and then they roll again.
Starting point is 00:55:23 Put it up. They're crazy people. Dude, there was this guy I saw on TikTok live. He was getting to level 100 in Kingdom Hearts. in Destiny Island by getting specifically Tex against Titus in the fight,
Starting point is 00:55:40 which is crazy. How much did he do it? Yeah, it probably took like, I don't know, I want to say like 600 hours of just fighting this one scene. Yeah, and the same guy did that in the beginning of Final Fantasy 7 right when you, like the first encounter where you get off the train,
Starting point is 00:55:58 you just don't leave that area. But he wanted to do it continuous to prove he didn't fuck it up. So he had like two computers running. And it was like, and it would like he would sleep and then come back to do it. It was disgusting to get to 100 on cloud or something. Yeah, he was broken at the end because people were just like, dude, imagine you unlock something.
Starting point is 00:56:16 Be like, yeah, be cool. But this is just. Just like guys, let's just finish this. Yeah. Sun cost fallacy, bro. Oh my God. You're just like, well, I got all this way. I'm level 80.
Starting point is 00:56:27 What am I going to do? I'm going to stop now? Why would I stop now? And it exponentially gets harder. It does get harder. But yeah, I don't know. I was doing the marathon and, you know, marathons are tough. Yeah, why are you doing back to back?
Starting point is 00:56:38 What made you want to do Liza P? I was sponsored. Are you, oh, by Liza P? By Liza P? Is this a sequel coming out? No, they announced the complete edition on Intento Switch 2. Oh. But they're, they hot drop.
Starting point is 00:56:52 Time out. Like when they announced a D.C., they did a surprise drop. Okay. I don't think they'll do an influencer teaser when they announced a sequel is what I'm saying. Okay, sure. They'll just fucking dump it.
Starting point is 00:57:02 I didn't know that. I never played the game. What would you rate it? It's an amazing game. Wow. I think it's better than any of the Dark Souls. No shit. I never played it.
Starting point is 00:57:12 Wow. That's cool, bro. But anyway, yeah, I'm going back to back marathon, but they shoot marathons. When you do marathon, you're streaming it, people come in and they just what they want. Those years are going to happen every time. What rank are they at?
Starting point is 00:57:26 How far are they? How long will that take? Lowell. And then that happens like every two seconds. Because everyone kept coming into my marathon. And they kept saying, is you playing DLC? And that there would be a bot that auto replied to someone if they said DLC and would answer. But without fail, every five seconds, someone goes, was he playing DLC?
Starting point is 00:57:47 And it's like, they don't care. They're not engaging in this marathon. They're just here for this crumb of a question. Ludwig, how does that make you feel? I started raging at people at the end. Oh, so really, I guess there's a little bit of. slime and everybody when fucking the same shit gets fucking said every fucking time and fucking chat. I sat down this one guy.
Starting point is 00:58:06 I'll show you the clip. I got mean. You sat a guy down? I got mean. Because you know what? And I've been wanting to talk about this. I've been wanting to. We did it.
Starting point is 00:58:16 We did two D&D episodes where I DM'd and Ludwig created a character named Pitor who was like a teacher's pet super senior at the Marikana Academy for Smegma or whatever. I didn't even remember what I made. Yeah. This is you nailed it. He talked crazy the whole time. This is Pitor's voice. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:58:35 I guess I'll roll to attack with my axe. After that episode, he starts talking like Pitor. I don't know why. I have clips. I have 10 clips of him talking weird. Oh, like in his daily life. Only on stream. And it was weird.
Starting point is 00:58:51 He started stop doing it. And I don't know why. And I don't know why he's doing this. But what always brought me back down to Earth was that, when he would yell at somebody and tell him to kill himself to chat, that wasn't P. Tor talking. All right?
Starting point is 00:59:06 That was Rob Real Ludwig. I wasn't talking like P. Tor. Dude, why were you talking weird? I wasn't, I was talking. I was talking. I was talking. I think, I think we should do volleyball next year.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Let's do a volleyball tier list. It was different. It wasn't that tone. It was fucking wasn't. Tell me why. Because you know there was a tone and tell me why it was different. I already told you this.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Why? I already told you. But it didn't have to do with CS. It had to do with the streamer gains. It was a streamer games Dude to string the gains Because you streamed after we did that D&D episode You did a streamer games recap episode
Starting point is 00:59:37 It was everyone happy for you If I can make Pitor voice Then Ptor lives in me But why was he living in you now Because sometimes Pitor wins And you don't know when you talk to me Whether you get Pitor at Ludwig I don't like that
Starting point is 00:59:49 Wow All right let's watch this clip This is from a marathon I was talking about Because I got a book And I want to know what book I hadn't read because I've been reading every book.
Starting point is 00:59:58 It's like a lore book. And I read every one. And usually when they pop up, they have like a little symbol. And it goes unread. And so I said, I wonder what book I didn't read. And he goes,
Starting point is 01:00:08 oh, you can see the symbol. And then I'm explaining how, that's not always right because some of the ones that I read still have the symbol. So I can't use that as trustworthy the information.
Starting point is 01:00:17 Okay. Idea of how it's supposed to work, but I read most of the blue ones. It is accurate. No, no, no. I guess I'm telling you, as my lived experience that I did read them even though they had the blue check.
Starting point is 01:00:30 This is not people. And I have like Vod evidence. But I understand that Oh my God is real you. Game systems are so resolute that it that could have been. Nope. Okay. Motherfucker,
Starting point is 01:00:40 do you want to do this? Really want to fucking do this? Because I was talking fucking nice. You dumb cunt. Okay. Don't fucking test me here. Because I'll go through the vaude. I will find the exact moment where I read one that has the blue check.
Starting point is 01:00:52 And then we'll permanently ban you. I'll go through the effort. But don't sit here and tell me, I did not live the experience that I lived. I lived it. It was me. I go. Hey, where are you?
Starting point is 01:01:09 Okay, so let's do this together. Fairytale of the Three Brothers Workshop. That's the intro. Yes, bro. A technician who made the friendly three public brothers. This is what I call reading. And our brothers lived happily ever after. And then I close it.
Starting point is 01:01:25 It's so weird because I told you it was my lived experience. I told you this. Steve just as a reminder, by the way. It has the blue check that says on red, but you saw me read it. Ban him? I actually have no interest in banning him. It's just someone whose messages I will never read again because they're an idiot. That's what you call going off?
Starting point is 01:01:40 I called him a cunt. Ah, can you do? You said crazy your shit in league. I do, but here's my theory. And I know I've talked about this before and I always get fucking shut down, but Aiden's not here today's because shut me down. And so now it's like a free market of like free awesome ideas. and we all wear robes and shit. Slym unchained.
Starting point is 01:02:00 I'm unchained. And you're my unchained fellows. Inside me, the guy that you guys make fun of is like, oh my God, he asked how your day was going. You're fucking insane. Why did you call this? Why did you say this guy,
Starting point is 01:02:14 I hope you get a scary call from your parents? Okay. When you say that, that guy exists within all of us. And to pretend that I'm crazy for being the guy that's in all of us is, well, it's like racism.
Starting point is 01:02:28 You're crazy because of threshold for what? It's like you're being racist to me. You're being racist to me. Yeah, it's like racism. Okay. And it's unfounded and it's horrible. I think your threshold for that guy coming out is too low.
Starting point is 01:02:44 So it's an issue of threshold, not validness of the feeling. I mean, yeah, like if a guy were to come up and say some like heinous shit, right? Like truly heinous shit. And then you were to bark back at him, I would be like, that's fine. But you bring it out because a guy literally said like, like, what did you eat today?
Starting point is 01:03:02 And then, and then you're in a street fighter match. And then you go, why would he ask that? Why the fuck are you going to ask what I ate today? I got mad thinking about what he just said. What do you want to see what my shit looks like too? You freak? Just watch the fucking gameplay. I understand.
Starting point is 01:03:16 I mean, I understand what you feel. I get. Why did he ask that? I get it. You get it. I do get it. Yeah, I do get it. Why?
Starting point is 01:03:23 Let me try to, let me try to explain. Do I, do I? I think I'm different than slime in that I don't punish that person. But I still don't. I still think the question is stupid. The thing is we're going to have to deal with this because slime does this in the privacy of zone home on its own stream. I like to call this hear your own voice style participation.
Starting point is 01:03:45 This is when a chatter, a Discord user, anyone, they type something because they had the urge to type something, not because they had something they wanted to say. So I, uh, you know, we're seeing each other. I don't know if you know this. You're seeing Burger. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:00 Really? The mean zipper three broke up. Oh my God. I'm so sorry. I mean, she's great. How long have you known? That's your saying in front of her. She's great.
Starting point is 01:04:10 She can't really speak for herself. How long have you known her? How long? Well, about two months, three months. Okay. But I mean, something I wanted to tell you guys is, so we've been going out to eat a lot. And I know this sounds a little fucked up,
Starting point is 01:04:25 but we've been. going to a lot of smash burger joints. Oh my, Aiden. What the fuck, man. Yeah. Is that like ethical? I, well, for, I think it is for me. And she doesn't really speak up at all. So I figure it's fine. Really?
Starting point is 01:04:40 Yeah. And I, I, I know, I, I know, I, I know. And I, I, I know, I, I know. There's so many places. The square readers. Yeah, the smash burger plays. There's so many of that place in Los Angeles. Yeah. Well, the nice thing about that place, again, you're taking her there. get to that. The nice thing about it is the
Starting point is 01:04:58 Square Reader just tracks all my past purchases there and I already, I got a free milkshake last time I went. I didn't even realize it was tracking all my points. It is really convenient also you can just straight up blast your phone on that thing, get your points. I mean if I run a burger business, I'm using Square and I'm not letting this guy
Starting point is 01:05:15 in my fucking business. If I had a smash burger place with a Square Reader and a burger comes in, I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa, I don't know about that. Like for all of the back end stuff, all this point of sales, you know, Square online. You don't need anything that's complicated. You just put square in. Everything works. It's fine. It's great. But someone like you comes in with my burger wife. And I say, I'll pay for
Starting point is 01:05:38 whatever burgers you have with your square. And last time I went to that place, I was like, does anyone here have an IT team or an accounting degree? And they were like, no. And I'm like, interesting. Thanks for telling me that. Now I'll order. It was a good thing to know about that place. They just say the square handles all of it, which is so interesting. guys square is great for businesses but you're also allowed to ban people from businesses that make you feel weird if you're starting a business or running one that helps deserve better tools clearly burgers are allowed in the restaurant if you're starting a business or running one that deserves better tools square helps you sell manage and grow without slowing down right now you can get
Starting point is 01:06:12 up to $200 off square hardware at square.com slash go slash yard that's squ a rome dot com slash go zcg or slash yard run your business smart of the square get started today you are straight up taking her there, bro. It's like, I think it's unethical. I think what you're doing is unethical. Sometimes, sometimes I take little bites out of her and then I pack in the meat that I bought. Archie, get us out. Get us out. Get us out of this episode.
Starting point is 01:06:36 We're going to have a talk. No more. Get us out of the ad. Can we play a little game? Yeah. I want to play a game. Do I do you want to play it? Yes. You're actually the main player. Me and Nick are going to come up with chat messages. Oh my God. And you say whether you would ban or ignore. And I'm bringing this up because we're going to do the CS2
Starting point is 01:06:53 marathon and there's going to be moments where you're going to a place going to be called so i'm going to be alt tabbed out yeah on a second monitor to ban a chatter you do this listen to me really quick for a second you do come on listen to me what are we going to be really quick for a second what are we doing i show up all the time on time because i have we have to be honest we have to be honest because i thought about this and i say how annoying would it be for my team my friends that if I was busy looking at chat and then I didn't do something correctly. I'm gonna be brave here when I say this.
Starting point is 01:07:31 And I'm a guy who was just defending you. I just remember that. I think you care. I think the anger you feel at an angry chat message supersedes how much you care about that. Sometimes. I think a majority of the time.
Starting point is 01:07:42 Wow! And I think the thing is maybe, it's a sweet thought and I appreciate you thinking it. You're gonna buckle. Yeah, you're gonna buckle. You're gonna crack. I'm gonna buckle. I'm talking about how many times.
Starting point is 01:07:52 It's like, look, You gotta quit fucking doing awesome drugs. You get to do some drugs. So let's go through. Let's go through as an exercise. This is gonna help us because now you're gonna have this and you're gonna think back at this moment
Starting point is 01:08:06 and then maybe that'll help you not do it. This is one of the easiest things to, I can think of a thousand messages. Let's go. I can think of one thousand messages. So I just say ban or not? You would say whether you're in and I guess I'm gonna,
Starting point is 01:08:17 we're gonna try to maybe raise it a bit. This is gonna be in the context of you are in a CS2 game. Okay, do you all, tab over. You, like, you could be dead. Like, this can be any time during the game. Okay, and it's 11-9.
Starting point is 01:08:29 And, and, sure. On us, too. All right, I'll start. We'll just go back and forth. Yeah. Okay. I'll start. Be honest.
Starting point is 01:08:40 Not with the context of us as a five-sec. Is this a quiet, I just ban and say nothing? I, or do I go off? You can say how you reply. Okay, I, okay. Genuinely, you guys are chatterous and I'm streaming. Yeah. Um, okay, ready?
Starting point is 01:08:54 What is this? Are they like together? You know why? You know why I did that? Because in a marathon context, there's going to be cattle coming in. Fresh beef. Yeah. And I don't care about them.
Starting point is 01:09:09 Okay. And I don't care about them. Are they together? Okay, you know what? I'd be like, yeah, of course you're fucking dead. What are you talking about? Okay. But not a ban.
Starting point is 01:09:17 Not a bad. I would say that. I reply not a ban. Okay. How many rounds for her to win? 12 rounds. I like answering technology. technical questions.
Starting point is 01:09:24 That's wrong. Oh, 13. And then I'd be like, I got it wrong. I actually, I don't know. I disagree that you would
Starting point is 01:09:32 answer and say I like answering technical questions here. I think you would say fucking look it up. Why are you asking me? I'm in the middle of the fucking game. I don't want to tell you how many. That one, sure.
Starting point is 01:09:41 Yeah, yeah. Okay, yeah. It's a hard exercise. It's lock in on you. It's a hard action. Really lock in. And maybe let's for now, for this experiment,
Starting point is 01:09:49 let's ignore the marathon. This is just him solo cooing at home. Okay. Because I think it's easy. for you to chat. Um, are you going to go
Starting point is 01:09:58 to the next streamer games? Ha ha. What the fuck are you asking me that for? Don't fucking, just fucking leave me alone. I'm playing Counterstrike. This is not for you. This is only for the schizophrenic people in chat that want to watch another
Starting point is 01:10:15 schizophrenic guy. Get the fuck out. It feels like he's saying it to me. Is that a ban? No. It's not a man. I don't ban as much as I used to. You guys don't fucking get. You listen to me? You watch me? I got another one.
Starting point is 01:10:28 Okay, okay. I got another one. So slime has just taken an aggressive swing on overpassed monster and died. Doesn't really happen. Chatter, chatter says, you had two flashes. Instant ban. Instant ban, bro. Instant fucking bad.
Starting point is 01:10:52 And then I say, I had two flashes. kill yourself. That's what I say. Just easy, simple. I'm mad. Are you having fun? I roll my eyes. I don't say anything. You don't read it? No, I read it, but I don't acknowledge it. Are you having fun? If you say it twice, I... What the fuck do you want from me?
Starting point is 01:11:11 What the fuck? I'm wondering if you're having fun? Okay, and then I ban you because now I know it's a troll, right? So, you guys don't understand. Let me explain. I operate in this world where I'm not being trolled. Yeah. Because everything, I take it into the faith, maybe not the best faith, but the faith that it is genuine, unless it's super obvious, and I think I have a good radar. But my radar is obfuscated
Starting point is 01:11:33 a lot of times because I'm like, well, they must be being serious. They must be being serious, not trying to make the little old Kalmu. Okay? I got another one. He likes this game. All right. Oh my God. I've told, I forgot who, someone asked me, like, if you could come back and you could
Starting point is 01:11:49 haunt anyone when you're dead, who would it be? I was like, oh, I'd haunt slime to chatter. a chatter that like always just comes back I'd be a chatter that can always be in your chat but I think I just know exactly what to say um okay you're playing counter strike again reminder you're playing counter strike
Starting point is 01:12:03 and you are just in the middle of a round and you're in a game it's uh three to seven you're losing and chatter says this game should have volleyball bear oh shit really what the fuck are you talking about what you just said that because you think I would think that was cool.
Starting point is 01:12:25 You just lost around. I love you, man. It's all right, man. Get that shit the fuck out of here. Is that a ban? That has a band. Of course, is a band.
Starting point is 01:12:33 I ban people who say, I love you. I don't like it. It's weird. I got another. So you, you, you just called an execute for your team
Starting point is 01:12:44 because you're losing, but you're honestly in like a kind of normal. You're in a type of mood where you're willing to try to turn this game around. So you start calming more. And someone in chat says, where's Ludwig?
Starting point is 01:12:53 Yeah. That one I've gotten a lot in my life. That one is, it kind of just washes over me. But I say, where's Ludwig? Check this out. And then I open up Ludwig's stream and then ban them in there because I know it hurts more.
Starting point is 01:13:07 I've done this a lot. Not a lot, but enough. A lot. I go through my own band forms. I've been doing it. Really? Reverse. For my first time, I reversed band someone.
Starting point is 01:13:18 Yeah. They were a slime viewer in my chat and you banned them in my chat. That's why that guy was... From streamer games. Yes. Oh, you banned him in your chat. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:13:28 And I reverse band him. A reminder that you're human and you do spend your time doing things like this sometimes. No, what was on stream? It was on stream. It was on stream. It was a stream.
Starting point is 01:13:36 It was fun. It was da bingo. Okay. Would you ever do something like that off stream? Da bingo. No. No? I would never touch on man forms off stream.
Starting point is 01:13:43 I would love to hear that you did that once. I would never let them take my time. I've been reading comments a little more recently and, I read one on the last episode And I It just said like something I think no
Starting point is 01:13:57 Not something I remember what it said It said um Nick comma Either buddy or dude Some sort of word like that Dude comma What is with the hair Something like that
Starting point is 01:14:08 And I typed out An angry message Really? I typed out a whole little angry I think a short but sweet angry reply Okay And I typed it out I read it to myself
Starting point is 01:14:19 five times and I deleted it. I didn't ever send it. Optimal strap. I just didn't send. It's a great exercise. It was good. I got to say what I wanted to say to the guy without having to say it to the guy and make him important at all and then I just left. Yeah, I've talked about a million times. I just have that
Starting point is 01:14:37 peace in my brain that wants them to know that I don't like them. Because at the end of the day, unless they're really being mean or something, they want you to like them. They want you to be like, ha ha. And I, I But you also want them to like you. I do, but not vocally. Quietly.
Starting point is 01:14:55 I want quiet. I want quiet from a distance appreciation of a joke. Yeah. That's at the end of the day, that's a laugh, which we call that a laugh. And so it's all I want. I just want. It's all I want. Or, like, remember when I was like, I said something, like, I said three words.
Starting point is 01:15:16 And a guy clocked it as a piece from a loiter squad. episode like 15 years ago and I was like that's also what I do it for yeah is to knowers that's why like so at the end of Spider-man um I I asked everybody I was like do you guys remember at X-Men 3 when professor X got his head blown off and no one had seen that which is fine and I was like oh it's awesome and then Aiden's girlfriend she watches a million movies which is also kind of unlikely giving her personality she's like oh my god I do remember that and I felt seen and that's why I say shit like that. It's because I don't feel alone for a second in like the things I've watched or whatever. And that was very nice. Can I give you one more? A chat message? Yeah. Is it all right to type here?
Starting point is 01:16:02 I'm scared. I'm scared. Really good one. What do I usually say to that? That's a good one. If you're scared to type in a Twitch chat, not going to make it. N-GMI. Everyone's laughing at you. Everyone's laughing at you and they looked at your message because this is a giant Discord call essentially. We're laughing at you. Because you're scared. because it's typing a chat message and you're scared of it and then I check Ludwig's chat and see how many messages
Starting point is 01:16:27 you know what the worst part is I check to see how many messages they have in Ludwig's chat and it's not a lot I'm like oh man this doesn't matter to them but the 999s oh
Starting point is 01:16:37 the 999 is like hitting a pinata I had to close I had to close fucking Nickzone the other day I got so annoyed really yeah because someone came in and they were like well they're gonna see this
Starting point is 01:16:48 because they watch the show but like, they were like, what's your, what's Nick's coffee order? Sometimes they speak to someone, they speak about me as if I won't be here to read it to answer it too, which I also don't like. Because I'm like, this is why you're in Nick zone to ask me a question. So why would you ask everyone else a question about me? Maybe they came from Ludwig zone. Maybe they came from Ludwig zone. That's the norm.
Starting point is 01:17:05 Yeah. Bro, go say hi to them today. That is a speculation. Make some days. And I just, I said something like, I don't know why anyone would ever need to know this. Like, why do you know what I order at the coffee shop? Yes. And this is like kind of funny, which I was like, sorry, I just started drinking coffee.
Starting point is 01:17:24 I just wanted to know. And I'm like, you're 14, whatever. And then someone, and then I feeling bad that I kind of scolded them publicly, just answered the question anyway. And I said, this is your one invasive question. And then a different person was like, wow, it's the same answer you gave in Nick Ball. And I'm like, it's the same question. What do you mean? What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:17:46 Wow, it's the same answer. It's the same question. This frustration is my coffee order. It's running through my mind all the time rather than some of the times or if I'm having a bad day or if I like dealt with it too much. Yeah. It's always there. I have to break down and get there.
Starting point is 01:18:00 The marathons get me there. Yeah. But if I'm just doing a six hour of stream, it's like, I don't know. What are they got? It's funny. I think about this sometimes. Like your life on your job, especially on stream, has to do a lot with wondering what what I say will look like
Starting point is 01:18:18 if it ends up on scuba Ryan and I think that's a really shitty place to have to live No it's not even about whether that moment gets clipped because that moment doesn't get clip I don't get clip I'm not talking about that moment I'm talking about moments in general sure sure but I think I more so think
Starting point is 01:18:33 like what if someone just came and it's their first ever yard episode and then they tune in for the first ever time and what's their experience and because you come at all these people like they should have the context or at least build up the context of everything but there's always someone new yeah and that new person like might come in and it's a hostel and they're like whoa it's i see it as like if you're talking about like chat i see it as a vibe and it's like a big party and you don't
Starting point is 01:19:04 really know anybody yeah at least in the the size that my chat is allowed to be but your front door like has like three guns pointed out of the mailbox slot it's a gun party and and and so Someone's like, can I come in? And you start shooting the fucking ground. Because in a gun... Can you come in? Because in a gun party. What are you scared to open the door?
Starting point is 01:19:22 You scared open the fucking door? Because in a gun party, you just come in. Because the guns regulate everything. Because everyone's got a gun. My view on it is, like, most things asked in chat are Googlable questions. Yeah. And when someone asks a Googlable question, I think it's because their desire to talk to you outweighs their genuine curiosity for what they are wondering.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Hold up. And I don't respect that. Almost everything on this show is a Googled question. Yeah, but we're talking about it together as like as guys who have known each other for 10 years. You can Google what the most fuckable part of a smart house is. You can. But it's fun to talk about it with your friends. And I think that's the difference. And I think that's what a chatter is hoping to do.
Starting point is 01:20:06 And I don't like that idea. No, but if a chatter said like, if a chatter said, uh, well, for one, if they said, if someone came into my house and said, what is the most fuckable part of a smart house? I'd say best chat of the day. What an interesting question. Let me try to answer it. So bad example.
Starting point is 01:20:21 Sure. Because it's not, it's the Google question, but like not really. I think the real Googable questions are when people are like, AI says the thermostat. That's such a bad.
Starting point is 01:20:31 It is widely considered. It is interesting to ask AI because AI would weirdly be an AI house. Yeah. I would want to fuck a house? What would I want to be fucked? Um, wow. Do they're satisfying?
Starting point is 01:20:43 due to their satisfying tactile click. Wow. I guess when the robots kill us all, that's what they'll be fucking each other with his thermostat. What the fuck, man. But I just don't like when someone comes in the chat and it's just like, have you played,
Starting point is 01:21:00 have you played Cod4? And it's like, just look it up. Like you can find that out immediately for yourself. This is not to say, I think I often get kind of like accused of being unappreciative of like fans or whatever, which I'm unappreciative.
Starting point is 01:21:13 with the ones that are annoying. But I do think it's just, I don't consider myself important or interesting enough to be asked benign questions. And that's what this is all sourced by. If I had an ego that allowed me to be like, what did I eat today? It's a great question. I'd love to talk about what I ate because I think I'm that important. I think that's kind of pathetic. And I think it's a disgusting person to be. I don't think you're allowed to feel that way, or at least enforce that feeling when you also are posting yourself, because like posting the podcast. It means you think you're important enough for people to listen to it. Yeah, that's my that's how I look at it. And that's my eternal struggle because in my mind, I'm like, I just show up
Starting point is 01:21:52 and I goof. And then the goofing is this, this independent silo of like making jokes. And I try to, I want it both ways. You want it both ways. And I can't have it. But in my stream, which is a place I like to curate. You can't have it. I can. Yes. The place I am most vocal about things I think are annoying is Nixone. in the yard Discord because Discord is like the, it's essentially texting on my phone. It's where I talk to all my friends. And so when I, when someone talks to me on Discord, it feels oddly personal. Like it feels like a place where I'm like, you are truly disturbing the vibe of where I talk to friends. And I almost exclusively when I scold them, do it to set an example in Nickstone.
Starting point is 01:22:33 I don't do it because I'm at them necessarily. It's like a, this is the eighth time I've gotten this. I don't want this anymore. I'm going to tell this person so that everyone else sees and they go, oh, I didn't get punished. I don't have to do that anymore. These are problems that, like, the size of us kind of get to have. Because if, like, if you're, like, speed or something. Oh, yeah, you don't get to place it at all. It's so interesting.
Starting point is 01:22:53 No, we get to place it. Are you in slime zone? Yeah. That's, like, the one place I check every day. Besides most recent episode. Aiden's Aiden's zone? It's just, like, the one space that, you know. It's like a zone with your, like, people who like you?
Starting point is 01:23:06 It's just, like, people who want to ask you particular questions or, like, maybe I share an interest with someone in the thing, and so instead of going to like the gaming subchannel, they'll just go to that one. And they're there every day? That person? Like other people that are like daily.
Starting point is 01:23:19 It's tight in every day. Daily Nixone. Yeah. Like, oh my God, it's... A lot of the same people. Stepania. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:25 I have moral enemies. I don't love it. I don't love it, but it is an interesting place to look at because, again, I guess in a vain way, it's about me. And when people are talking about you,
Starting point is 01:23:35 you want to hear what they're saying. Check a love zone? Oh, it's been years. I have to dust it off. Just say, hey, lull. They would make their day. Sorry, just got home. What's up?
Starting point is 01:23:46 This is also not to like, it's, because, like, when we did bad melee, and it was such a, because there's just a small thing. But so many people from bad melee, like, I still talk to regularly, periodically, and they're like friends, right? This is different because it's not supposed to be that, and it's not intended to be that. Can someone invite me to the yard podcast? You're in it, bro. Come on.
Starting point is 01:24:10 That's funny. You're funny. I believed it. You got me. But it's a tightrope. And I think I make sure that tightrope is fucking really taught every time someone oversteps even a tiny little bit. Because I'm like, I would never do this. I would never, I would never DM, even when I was in college or whatever, I would never DM a content creator with a reel that I thought they would think is funny.
Starting point is 01:24:37 Did you app? I did that. Dude, you're nasty. Everyone It's fucking Oh my God It's on fire I think it's been years
Starting point is 01:24:46 I think it's literally Been years Since he's talking Everyone yo And they're spamming it You're such a bastard I like that And someone posted
Starting point is 01:24:54 A plate full of poop A plate full of poop Yeah That's a poop plate You can't even get to it It's going to go fast Wait you gotta ban that guy You gotta do it
Starting point is 01:25:05 Let me do it The poop Yeah Is it actual poop You can't let that go Or is it food that looks like poop? Is it curry? I think it's actually just sausages.
Starting point is 01:25:13 No, it's sausages. That's fine. That's fine. That's good posting. Great posts. Yeah. If it's real poop, I don't want poop in the Discord. But if it's food that looks like poop, that's just, that's footie scrant.
Starting point is 01:25:21 They got super with his big titties. That's fine too. It's super. Man. That toes the line, but it's fine. They probably think you want something. Yeah, I try, like, you guys might not know this talking to people listening. Everyone, never mind.
Starting point is 01:25:34 There you go. Sorry, wrong chat. It's like, I've worked a lot on. not getting pissed off. I think I'm actually way better than I used to be. I give myself a little second. I say, you know what? What's the funny angle in this? Does this make for a funnier story down the line of like post apocrypha? Maybe. And I'm way, way more chill, which is cool. Fine, I'll ask. What the fuck does post apocrypha mean? Post meaning posting like on a forum. So it's like, think about Fartimore, right? Fardomor immediately, if I saw him in the chat,
Starting point is 01:26:08 I'd shoot him dead. But the fact that he's kind of persisted like this roach for so many years gives him like apocrypha, which is like story, undocumented story lore about this weird man who has existed this whole time.
Starting point is 01:26:24 And I'm like, well, if you shoot everybody... I wonder what his life is like. It's probably really weird. And if you shoot everybody who is annoying in the first rip, you don't get guys like him. And I think about that too.
Starting point is 01:26:37 Yeah. do have a soft spot for the like kind of annoying but have always been here people. Yes. History means a lot to me. Some say I shouldn't have banned Metro Gunen but I still stick by that one. Yeah it's okay. You're not bringing him back? I think they've given up on the show.
Starting point is 01:26:53 Oh. Post ban. You lost Metro Gunen. Yeah. There's someone named Goghurt Peachy that's always in my chat and for years they were posting Poken Tournament DX just that word, just the name of that video game. And for some reason it just always went by. It was like it always flew by and I never got mad. And then I checked the logs and it's like 400 messages of this one thing. But it was for so many years, I was like, welcome. Yeah. Like you did it, right?
Starting point is 01:27:17 You made it through. Let's play it on stream. Because the first time, it should have been a ban on site. The first couple times. First like 10, 20 maybe. And so now what I'm realizing is maybe you let them fly. And that's growth. Yeah, I let most fly. But I, but you know, there's people who, well, there's people who also do this work. It's the, it's the, the, the, it's the, the, moderator. You pay Tim. I don't have any. In Bitcoin. I paid Tim in Bitcoin exclusively, which is what he asked for. That's what he wants. And he, I think
Starting point is 01:27:46 he likes playing with speculative assets. And he goes through, and I get comments sometimes, and I see him and they go, yeah, I like Ludwig, but his fucking draconian mods won't let me fucking speak in there. But it's
Starting point is 01:28:03 passed off. I don't deal with the riffraff. Yeah, you can't. It's the soldier with the knives and bullets are all raining down on him. And sometimes he shoots innocence. Of course he does. Tim is more, let me say this, bro. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:28:16 You probably knew this. He's more malicious than me. Tim has evil blood. Yes. And he has slaver's bones. I actually don't think there's a way to be a good policeman. Because I think it's this, Tim is basically a cop.
Starting point is 01:28:31 Yeah. Yeah, monster cops. Can I be the punisher kind of? I like play by my own rules. You can be a vigilante. Yeah, but the Punisher was bad. No, the Punisher is cool, but he was also Loki a cop. But I'm saying the Punisher, well, it's spoilers.
Starting point is 01:28:48 You're talking about the, I'm talking about the... It doesn't matter. He's only in Spider-Man, right? New character. Well, the Punisher made his debut this year. He's Peter. I can't believe you just thought he was a guy named Frank. Frank.
Starting point is 01:29:02 Peter and Frank. That's Frank guys kind of funny. He lives in a boat? What is that? Yeah, I think you can't be a good cause. I think the power corrupts. Oh, of course it does. Because you can make the problem go away really fast.
Starting point is 01:29:17 And you treat everyone like cattle. I mean. Yeah, it's outside. Okay. So something that has gone on outside of our warehouse, there has been a new structure built, which is actually on this wall, which is right next to us.
Starting point is 01:29:33 And the person that lives in this new structure, these structures on this side of the street usually get taken down pretty quick. I don't know why. They have like a, yeah, like the cops come and they just like sweep the whole street. But they don't like this particular side of the street. They'll let the other ones rock with the porta potty and the grill and the cat. Gavin Newsom legislation.
Starting point is 01:29:50 And yeah, Newsom actually comes down with a machine gun and just actually he fires on, but they got really good at dodging. Yeah. So it's mostly the most agile homeless now live by natural process. I've just ruined it. Super hot in that. But it's low. Located in this chat, which is kind of cool.
Starting point is 01:30:10 It's like this jar of flies. So anyway, this person who is in this new house loves playing awesome music. Blasting music. And we thought it was different. We had concrete walls. Yeah. How is this even getting through so loud? It's really loud.
Starting point is 01:30:24 Yeah, this is what I want. The last time it was happening, this is what I wanted to say was that YouTube shorts joke about like, it's like when the voices are in the very back of the YouTube short. Because I couldn't hear you guys because all I could hear was that. I was like freaking out a little bit because I was just like, I can't podcast. I thought it was zipper listening to music or playing music last episode. But I also, I have the autism where if something noisy is going on, I can't focus. But that was happening to me.
Starting point is 01:30:48 And I'm like, I said to myself in my head, it's time to lock in. And it's raw ignored it. It was a huge accomplishment. I'm honestly extremely impressed because I couldn't. For this whole episode, can you have little voices in the background? Just the whole. The whole time. We should have Aiden.
Starting point is 01:31:03 He has to record it wherever he is. A 90 minute episode that is overlaid. and then if you're able to split the audio, you can hear each one. But if you can't, you hear neither. You know how you do it? The language. On YouTube.
Starting point is 01:31:14 Yeah, the language. And you can turn on the audio track. Oh, yeah. Like the spiffing Brit. He made a video. It was like a seven-hour video. And it was like, this is a video with the moushtads ever.
Starting point is 01:31:25 Switch to Klingon to find out more. And you switch to Klingon and he goes, hey guys. And he tells you about his experiment. He talks for seven hours? No, no, no. He talks for like five minutes in the Klingon version. And the other one,
Starting point is 01:31:35 it has like, regular audio. I forget why he did split audio. FDX does it as well. So we all watch FDX. Every one of us. And Chaz. Chiz. Chiz.
Starting point is 01:31:47 Guys, that's our time. That's our time. It's our time. It's our time. It's our time. It's our time. You're weekly.
Starting point is 01:31:52 Wait, I get shit on for the hand. You guys are all doing the hand. I'm down. Let's do the hand. You open the palm. You had your hand open. Yeah. You know, you open the palm.
Starting point is 01:32:01 You open the palm. Appreciate you. Like, the basketball is about to suck up into your hand. We are live right now doing the Marathon. Um, right. We're doing the CS marathon now. We're probably way more like,
Starting point is 01:32:11 no, we're happy still. No, no, we're definitely. Oh no, no, no. If you're coming in.
Starting point is 01:32:16 We're miserable. Come in and say to be nice. If it's Wednesday, it's audio, we're probably still miserable, but I want you to type a message in each one of our chats. Be nice.
Starting point is 01:32:25 I go to try right now and say, Josh, they're right, just listen. And then come back. Dude. Say it right now. And then come back and edit your comment
Starting point is 01:32:32 and say how many chats were you banned in out of five? Uh, Yeah, everyone has a stamp card. I did the five out of five. I did it. It's like, guys, why are the last day of the chat messages are so much more annoying?
Starting point is 01:32:47 What happened? All right, see you later. See you later.
