Hello and welcome to Two in the Thing Tank, the show where we come with
four sketchy ideas on Mandy and I'm Alice to cover Trumblay virtual.
And what about your rapier shells around this motion noise.
Yeah.
Whoooo.
Again, very good.
Very good.
Have you practiced that before?
That's just there.
That's just top of mind.
Top of mind, bro.
I wouldn't have the confidence.
Well, it's because you haven't tried, bro. It's like this kid's story that I haven't
written, but I just was scribbling on a page and I was about a dog who sees other dogs
catch its tail. And then it goes, I'll just can't do that. People who are way better
than me can do that. But the dog's tail is long enough and he's actually quite good at reacting to
things because he's able to catch flies in midair and then one day there's a fly on
his tail and he catches his tail and he doesn't get it. Why he's capable of doing this?
It's because he tried. It's because he tried, but not on purpose. He accidentally tried.
You got to have a go, bro.
And would you say that that's a metaphor for the creative process?
I mean, the amount of people who think that they can't do something creative,
like if I can do it, I am the shitdest garbage load of pile of cum.
Yeah.
You know, I'm, a dog. All human beings are, is just come that got its act together.
Well, I know, but then it's lost its act together. Yeah.
All right, it's just come that got lucky, isn't it? We're all just come that got lucky.
Lucky. Right place, right, Tom.
Lucky. Mm-hmm. The luck of the cum.
But we're doing the podcast for you right now.
Yeah, we are.
Okay, great.
This is a podcast.
Do you like, do you like, have we talked about this before?
My favourite metaphor is the metaphor for the creative process.
Hit me with it.
Well, it's just whenever you make a movie and it's like,
Oh, the Civil War.
But then, you know, film critics come out and say, well, actually, this is about filmmaking, you know?
The Civil War was actually the film
and trying to win the war was actually trying to make the film.
Sure.
And the bullets were self-doubt and the arrows were criticism.
But then there's also the opposite where you make a movie about the creative process. were self-doubt and the arrows were criticism.
But then there's also the opposite where you make a movie about the creative process.
Really what it's about is the internal war with yourself.
Correct.
Which is the creative process.
Yes, and so it's kind of a double metaphor.
Do you think that like, but of all the lies
that we tell ourselves as people who try to be creative?
I think the best one is, I'm just scared to put my work out there because of you know
I'm scared to make things because
Because then I'll be judged
Yeah, but then no you're just lazy. You're just lazy like everybody else. Yeah, because then today when I
You know because whenever if ever I say that someone will then post a point to that tweet I did today
Which is just a photo of the inside of my nose
I think I may have seen a gray nose hair
If people go you're not afraid of being judged
And I go yeah, right
I'll just want attention. I want people the reason I haven't made more is because I'm a perfectionist
And I won't put anything
out there unless it's absolutely perfect, like this picture of the inside of my nostril
that I got Andy to take in the kitchenette earlier.
And especially, but I mean the photo was surprisingly clean there.
Yeah, I think we were all surprised.
But that was perfection of a.
Making more boogers.
Yeah, it was a perfection of a kind of a lucky type.
Booger.
Great word.
Great word for a thing.
Really encapsulates.
Probably the best.
Like, not is actually a little bit gross.
Boogers are a bit of fun, but I think it really grabs it.
You know, it really...
I think it could use in bodies.
Yeah?
Buggler?
Buggler?
Buggler.
Buggler.
I guess a Buggler.
Buggler, Buggler.
I guess Buggler sounds like somebody who takes Buggers.
That's right. Snot, Buggler. It sounds like somebody who takes boogers. What the...
It's not burglar. Yeah, it's not burglar.
The burglar, burglar.
Let's...
This is a great children's book, Alistair.
Write this down as a sketch idea,
but it's secretly a children's book.
It's about the Bouga Ferry, right?
It's like the tooth fairy,
so there's the tooth fairy,
and you know, she's all white and beautiful and clean,
but then there's the Bouga Ferry, who comes,
and like cleans up all the Bougas that get on your pillow
in the night, and that sort of thing.
He doesn't leave you anything,
because he doesn't have anything to give you,
but also you don't want your Bouga,
so he's doing you a favor.
But basically, he's a metaphor for like... The back but basically it's he's a metaphor for like the backer
you then backer you know he's a metaphor for the backer you know for the for the sideers passage
no he's a metaphor for people whose jobs who like do important jobs but who don't get respected
yeah you know like cleaners and that sort of thing and everyone loves the tooth fairy right but
she's just got inherited wealth.
Where's she getting all this money from?
Right?
She's a trust fund baby.
But the burglar.
The tooth fairy.
Yeah, she must be.
Like otherwise, like, where's she getting this money?
Right?
See, so she's sold to Ivory Dealers.
I guess so.
Fake Ivory.
Tiny Ivory Dealers.
Mm. Yeah, she granted. Tiny ivory dealers.
Yeah, she's probably can skip dimensions.
And she just takes the teeth and then dimension jumps into a dimension where people are really,
really tiny and sells the teeth for a huge amount of money on the black market.
Yeah.
She should really call it the white market though if it's ivory.
That's true.
More teeth.
Or teeth. I mean, maybe she's very small.
The tooth fairy. Well, yeah, she could be from the
world. Yeah, somehow she's a fairy. Of course, yeah, but
maybe we call her, maybe we call her a fairy just because
she has interdimensional teleportation ability. But, you
know, we've seen her with wings in our minds. But maybe she
just has like, maybe she's very advanced.
And she has, yeah, just teleportation and a hoverbike.
Maybe the bugle is an unfairie,
because that's a little play on unfairies.
Right?
And so, and he's all slimy and covered in filth.
He crawls up the drain.
And he's just working so hard picking out these boogers.
Gets boogers by going in through the mouth
and then up through that.
And then we obviously go into the nose.
Yeah, I'll butt up through the mouth.
I think he's in there with like a long plunger.
So on the pillow, shoving it up the nose,
trying to plung out the boogers.
I think that's one of those scrapers like bakers have and goes in there and so plunge out the boogers. I think that's one of those scraper's like,
bakers have, it goes in there and so
scrapes under the boogers like that.
Then he finishes it off with like a little chimney sweep.
He's got a bit of a chimney sweep vibe
with one of those brushes, that's all there.
Yeah, great.
Maybe polishes your hairs in there.
He gives them a good wank.
He's small enough to be able to wank her hair.
Wank her, No, he knows.
Well, he maybe he's got special little arms for that.
But then would you picture like a gritty,
a sort of origin story for this person?
I need to get into this business.
How do you get into this business?
I mean, technically, the body must create
some of the most complex chemicals of all.
Yes. You know, and so, future scientists, I mean, technically the body must create some of the most complex chemicals of all.
Yes.
And so, future scientists,
and you could imagine us being able to, once we're smart enough to kind of create
ultra-complicated chemicals that could do all sorts of magnificent things,
the thing you'll want to mine is the human body.
For its diversity of molecules,
I was gonna try and say, like, molecular.
Oh, so he's extracting those.
For future scientists.
Yeah, right.
Comes back in time travel.
Time travels to get these things so that it can run,
whatever, they'll be future creatures.
And creatures that we've created,
that create their own chemicals,
that create their own creatures, you know, things of that.
And then we'll, and those things will, you know,
we'll be able to synthesize drugs that are
based in sort of,
snow,
boogers, you know, but you need a boogler.
And he, I think, I think, I think when he stops doing it, because somebody catches him
and calls him disgusting, right?
He's horrible and he gets offended, right?
Even though he's just doing this service, right?
He stops doing it and then everybody, like they wake up in the morning, they've got
heaps of snot and everybody thinks they've got a cold But really it's just that the book Buggler hmm
The snot Buggler has stopped doing his job because he's so
upset right and they have to apologize
Yeah, somehow convince him to come back. But do we have to go forward in time to go get him from there? Maybe
Yeah, I guess if he's got a time thing, then he can do everybody in one night.
That's the only reason he can.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's a lot of work.
Every night, all night, every night.
But then he must live forever.
Oh, he just lives one night over and over again.
I know, but he wouldn't go back in his own time.
Yeah, I think he's immortal.
I think he's immortal.
Yeah, and it's related to these infinity, like these crazy complex chemicals.
Yes. You know, at some point, we could probably replace all cell walls, especially if you've
got a time device. You replace all cell walls with something that lasts longer.
So it is the secret of immortality is somehow in the snot.
Yeah, and you know, something in there that's synthesized by the human body.
So it's like, oh, our bodies are capable of living forever.
And it's through that, but then it's also means
that he's got this endless toil,
which he spends his eternal life
doing so that he can keep his eternal life.
But also out of the goodness of his heart,
because he's a good guy.
Well, maybe, yeah, but I mean, to think about it,
like what if you could live forever,
but it meant that you had to work forever?
You had to, and not a good job either.
Not a good job, no, you're an nasal scraper.
But everybody has to work together
in order to make this possible for all of us.
But at some point, if you wanna die,
you can call this, you just stop working.
Boogie nights.
This movie, it's a movie now. Yeah, no, I like it, boogie nights. Boogie nights, just boogie nights. This movie. It's a movie now. Yeah, no, I like it. Yeah, boogie nights.
Boogie nights. Just boogie nights. Yeah, boogie nights. Also, he makes porn films.
Yes. Maybe he's got a really big nose. Yeah, great. Or he has a cousin who does genital mucus, cleans up genital mucus.
Yes, nice pre-com.
Pre-com, correct.
Obviously, pre-combers are like cucumber, no, no, I don't know about it.
Pre-combers, yeah.
That's like cucumber.
Yeah, well I think it was thinking that, they should call pickles post-cumbers.
And then baby cucumbers would be pre-cumbers.
I don't know, don't worry about it, Alistair.
Yeah, okay.
I realized how little it was of anything
as soon as it left my mouth.
And I should realize that about every single wordplay
that I do, I think.
But sometimes they still slip through the defenses.
Well, how about this word play?
Yeah, we're on.
You know, I told you, my son is currently afraid to poop.
Yes.
And that it's, for me, it's just in time for Halloween,
because it's one of the most terrifying things
that I've ever gone through.
I've ever gone through.
And I'm like, oh, do you can't just eat and then not let things out.
You can't just become a one-way thing and just keep filling up.
That you kind of turn into a cul-de-sac, the shit.
There you go.
Called a sack of shit.
Yeah.
That's my wordplay.
That's what we remember how we got into that. Is that a wordplay? Called a sack of shit. Oh, caught a sack of shit. Yeah. That's my wordplay. That's what, remember how we got into that?
Is that a wordplay?
Called a sack of shit.
Oh, got a sack of shit.
Yeah, okay. Is that what you actually told him?
No.
No, you wouldn't do that.
No, no, I said, I sat down and wrote...
...to come up with that.
Oh, my newsletter.
Everybody's doing a newsletter now.
All the comedians.
Yeah, not me.
I'm gonna, I'm waiting for a new format and then I'm gonna get in on that straight away. Everybody's doing a newsletter now. All the comedians. Yeah, not me.
I'm gonna, I'm waiting for a new format
and then I'm gonna get in on that straightaway.
That's great, yes.
That's such a good idea, right?
I want, I want it, some sort of alert system
that pings me the second there's a new format
because imagine if we'd been making
TikToks.
podcasts before Mark Marrett.
Before Ricky Jervais,
maybe his invite in 2004. We would have had Barack Obama on two in the think tank
mm-hmm that's where we would be at yeah we would have been coming up with
sketch ideas probably be the third banana probably yeah that's a reference to
primates yes and Evan being of the second banana on prim We're going to be on primates this afternoon.
Yeah, we don't know when it's going to be released.
Maybe later on, maybe it's already released.
Yeah. Okay.
We are, right, not now, but in the future.
Yeah, okay, right.
I think you're doing some long time warp thing.
I'm the boogler.
Yeah, we're going to be, or we're going to be, or we already have been talking about
most extreme primate, the third in the series of primate films
from Robert Vince, Canadian filmmaker about a chimp called Jack
who gets engaged in a range of different sporting
push-its.
And yeah, it's pretty dark, pretty dark project.
Yeah, I mean, watching the film is such hard work.
Yeah.
Genuinely, like, it makes you go, oh, I don't know how people
review films all the time if watching some movies can be
this hard.
It has a 95% rating on Google user reviews.
So people love it.
Yes.
And when I looked at it, we watched it on a YouTube thing, and it had I think 1.3,000
upvotes and only 75 downvotes.
I only guess that's mostly in people who have sorted out.
Yeah, who look for a reason.
I don't think you find that sort of thing that you would find randomly by googling and something. Yeah, who looked for a reason. I don't think you find, that's the sort of thing that you would find randomly by Googling
and that's something.
But yeah, man.
I mean, look, where else are you gonna go
to find a snowboarding champ?
It's true.
You don't have a lot of options.
And so in terms of if that's what you're looking for,
that's an up vote because you're not gonna find
that pretty much anywhere else.
So there's this new genre of pornography that I've heard about on podcast, which is that
like you personalize stuff where you pay a large amount of money for people to make a very
specific type of pornography for you, like that that satisfies you in a particular way.
We could do a sketch about getting to do this with different genres of films,
you know, with action movies or something like that. Maybe this is the way that we could finally get our
crank Christmas with the crank movie up, where he's got to be happy all the time.
Yes. Jason Statham has to experience a certain amount of Christmas joy
for the duration of the, let's say 24-day, 12 days of Christmas, right? Or he'll explode.
What about this video?
He should be exploded in that movie.
I guess he'd just be taking a lot of ecstasy.
Yeah, I guess.
Is that Christmas joy?
Well, let's come up with a drug that just gives you Christmas joy.
Oh, that's a great idea.
Yeah.
All right, here we go.
I mean, that's basically what eggnog is supposed to be.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
If we could boil down.
But yeah, and make it into a powder.
Well, it's all right.
Yeah, people always say that about,
people always say that.
It always says that on the side of cans of like spray paint and stuff.
This deliberately concentrating and inhaling this product may cause injury or even death.
Right.
We're going to do that with eggnog.
Yeah, boil it down until it's like a 50-tonne concentrate, 100-tonne concentrate if
you need.
And then, Meg Nogg.
Yeah.
Why?
Meg Nogg.
Oh, yeah, great.
Meg Nogg.
I know that.
I think the Meg was another Jason Stathend film.
If we call it Meg Nogg, but it's a double G, I think people will get it.
Okay, correct. a double G. I think people will get it. I got it. Correct.
Yeah.
And we concentrate it down.
Because that way we don't have to do weird Jason Statham references.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
That's simple.
I just cut out some of the Jason Statham references.
This would be the first note from any half, so for specting producer in Hollywood.
It's been too much going on.
Like, if we can't guarantee we could get Jason's
statement in his book.
So let's do ourselves a favor,
try about some of these stuff.
Well, especially because this is not a film.
So if we're going to, if we're going to,
well, if we're going to a Hollywood producer
to say we're creating a drug.
Oh, yeah, I forgot.
That inspires Christmas cheer.
And we're thinking about calling it the Magnol.
You think Jason would be cute?
Representing our movie Christmas with the crack
that we made up.
We're thinking about making which we'll call you in a few years about that.
If we can get this drug up to get enough money going-
Yeah.
Film mega-nog.
A hundred constriction, it's a powder.
And I don't know whether you-
You snored it? I guess?
You sprinkled it over your head like snow.
And you absorb it through your follicle.
I think you sprinkled it over your head.
You catch it on your tongue, like catching snowflakes.
But I think you also just snored it,
so it goes straight into your bloodstream or whatever.
You just rub into your hair like shampoo.. Everyone that you just rub into your hair, like shampoo.
I droid that you rub into your scalp.
That's close to the skull,
which is close to the brain.
Yeah, but I think there's an element
in which you don't do that for anything in Christmas.
And for our Christmas time.
I guess there is an element of that rubbing stuff
into the top of your head.
Isn't really important Christmas.
Sure.
Why aren't there any drugs?
Where you just drill a hole in your brain
and you just drop stuff straight.
Drill a hole through your skull.
And you have a little funnel there.
And you just drop stuff in.
I mean, it would be great to create the first one.
Yes.
But what you do is you just get a drink, you go see your drug dealer. He's just drop stuff in. I mean, it would be great to create the first one. Yes. But what you do is you just get a drink,
you go see your drug dealer.
He's just got a drill and he puts a little cap in there.
So it's like, there's just like, you know,
like that cap that you have on a water pistol
that kind of like, it's just a hole.
And then it's just that little cap.
The flips over.
Yeah, it kind of flips over like that.
Or it's got that little sort of perpendicular line inside.
A little T-shape, little IUD type,
per C.
Thumbs up from the cap from getting lost.
We've gotten about that, Alistair.
What a great detail.
What a moment of an isolated unit of nostalgia.
Hmm, beautiful.
Fundamental unit of nostalgia.
So you can just put that in the back of your head like that.
And so it's just under your hair.
Yeah, great. And then you pop it and then it's occasionally you just you pop it out and then you
just just slide a bill in there. Yeah. Slide a bill. Not a pill. Oh right. You know it's just like
it just looks like like a dollar bill and then you somehow try and cocaine, snort through your own
skull. And yeah, you upside down. Maybe you could maybe you could. Can you brand snort? Well you,
you know, if you put, if you block your nose.
No, there has to be no air being.
There's no air brain flow connection.
Is there, there'd be an isolated system.
You'd want to keep that.
Maybe if you could find a way of sucking all the blood
from your brain, or enough that it creates
a tiny little back pressure.
Yeah, like negative pressure that sucks things in.
But I mean, why when you could just push a tablet in there
that'll just dissolve right on top of your brain's outer.
I think you shake in something that looks like fish food.
You know, because your brain is basically a fish in liquid.
Yeah, that's true.
And it's a little granules that will dissolve and that fluid.
Yeah, I mean, it's a great way to take mag-knock, because that is kind of like making it snow.
That's sort of your idea of making it snow.
That's what you say when you're a big dog.
We're gonna make it snow and just sprinkle a little bit in there.
I don't know that day, Lord, but I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that day, I don't know that It's not even Christmas.
It's September.
But now suddenly that song takes on an ear-y feeling.
Because you hear it playing slowly in the trailer for the film.
I think it's insane.
People...
Yeah.
The highlight of the song is... Yeah. The high, low, low, low, and rest.
And the person gets more intelligible as the song goes on, as the drug is kicking in,
because it's just part of the tradition of how you take it.
Yeah.
That is an entire brisk.
Sort of the opposite of the Grinch, right?
Because whoever this drug dealer is, maybe this is the future for the Grinch, right?
He's so embedded by his inability to steal
Christmas' of everybody.
And he's sort of like, it's sort of like when dad
wants you to stop smoking.
So he makes you smoke the whole pack.
Well, now the Grinch is like, oh, you won't let me
steal Christmas?
Well, what if I give you Christmas all the time on demand, right?
And he becomes this CD, Christmas dealer.
Yeah, so he becomes the biggest promoter of Christmas.
Yeah.
You know what's like, and you think about this is like,
you picture somebody boxing day, day after Christmas.
So he goes, looks like, you know, they get their bag from the
cringe and they go, looks like Christmas is starting early this year.
No, you don't have to. You've written around that because he's just
garbled because he's so high. And then that way we don't have to pay for the
rights. Yeah, what about the notes though? You don't have to pay for the rights. Yeah, what about the notes though?
You don't have to pay for the right for the notes to come up.
Oh, what if you get the notes wrong? Hema, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, Yeah, this is inside.
You're ability to do this.
If you get somehow turned that into a bit on stage.
I did do it when I'm doing my urethra bit.
I would say, blow across the top.
My tannicles.
Do you have two for some reason?
I haven't done it for a while. It's very, it's very, very good.
You guys try to get like that extra little deep vibration in the back of your throat
so that as the resonance, you know, anyway.
So I think Meganog is a win.
Yeah, oh, now that we've got the Grinch in there, this is turned into a home.
It's another, it's a film as well.
It's another film.
And so this film producer who we get to get this business up
and going, hopefully eventually, will be so invested
in it, like, can I buy the rights to this drug as a film?
And we'll call it Christmas with the Crank.
Yes, with the Crank.
With the Crank, yeah.
I think Christmas with the Crank is already there.
Oh, it's already filmed, yeah, so Christmas with the Crank.
I guess, but I mean, this is now like a
Grinch film. So, I mean, but maybe we could do that thing where we interslice. Another story in
between that is not connecting. And that's how why people think it's art. Yeah, we've been talking
about this a lot on our bonus episode. So if I try guys, All we ever do on this podcast now is we talk about other podcasts we're on by the way. And it's going to be all plugs the whole
way through. And we're talking about how you can trick people into thinking that
a piece of film is art if you just put another story and you split it up and
you put it all the way through. Or like any other kind of... You come back into it.
You come back to it and then you don't.
You never show why they're connected.
You never show that.
And that's up to the viewer to speculate about.
Endlessly, online.
Key to make an art.
Put a little slice of the thing so that people don't understand.
Just things that people don't understand
so that later on people can explain it to you.
And if somebody's explaining something to you
That's because that thing is art. Mm-hmm. And then people can debate whether or not that explanation is correct
Mm-hmm exactly and you'll and you remind forever in the discourse and as the as the director writer or whatever
People say he never reveals what it is like you know like Tarantino. He never revealed
What was in what was the light in the suitcase
What was it was it coming from he goes?
Do you think that maybe if he if he had something good to put in there?
He would have put it in there and told you what it was
You're right you're absolutely right if he had thought of something good. He would have told you
He would have put it in but
What's good is that you don't know.
That's the whole point.
But now that you've kind of ruled it for me, Alistair,
because now you've proven mathematically
that whatever was in there can't be good.
If it was, he would have told us.
It would have told us it was.
So we've narrowed it down.
We know that it's something disappointing.
Yeah.
Whatever it is, it's disappointing.
Possibly can't, whatever it is,
like whatever it was, it's either not good
or something that would have ruined the movie.
You know, like if, like you know,
some people say it was Marcellus Wallace's soul.
And you go,
if they had said that in the film,
squirmy little fish.
But think about it.
If they had said in the movie,
oh, opened it up, orange light, they go,
wow, Marcellus Wallace's soul.
And then closed it like that.
That movie would have been fucked.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You go, oh, now there's this weird magic.
Magic.
Ah, yuck.
Like that.
And so.
Well, then what does that give us?
Does this give us a way of sort of using the tools of logic to critically analyze films,
to prove whether or not they're good or bad?
And I think you've proven that that movie is bad.
But I love that movie. That bad movie.
I love that bad movie. All right, maybe you've just proven that that device is bad. But I love that movie. Yeah, I love that bad movie. Um, all right. Maybe you've just proven that that device is bad. I want you to
approve and something. Yeah. No, something to look something has been proven. I
think I guess we could the way we could go back. I don't know. Could you just go
back into these movies and just take the things that are ambiguous and make them
really clear? Well, okay, that's interesting because, you know, that is like Steven Spielberg going
back to Jurassic Park and putting in more dinosaurs or whatever.
Or was it George Lucas did stuff to the star, original Star Wars films and put in CG
things that look really bad at the time when he was doing them,
we were like, wow, this CG stuff is amazing.
And nobody thought about the fact that, oh, wait,
it's gonna look really, really bad
as soon as this gets any better
and people realize how garbage it is.
And so like six months later, you're already like,
what is that shit?
Yeah, weird addition to it.
Yeah.
Yeah, some weird scene where he adds,
oh, maybe this was a deleted scene,
but it was like a scene where they had,
it had Hans talking to a guy who initially was Jabba the Hut
and it was just a guy.
Right.
And I think that they had deleted that.
But then he had gone back and thought
maybe we could put it back in.
And if we have what Jabba the Hut now looks like,
but have
him as a 3D version of him.
And then they had this moment where somebody steps on its tail and he goes, what?
I know.
Yeah, I've seen that scene.
And he goes, yeah.
So basically we want to do that, right, but with ambiguity.
So we're going to go back through all old films
and remove the ambiguity.
Because that way they're not allowed to cheat, right?
Because by leaving things ambiguous,
we're reversing our theory of art, right?
We're saying that leaving things ambiguous
is a way of tricking people into doing the work
and the tricking the audience into doing the work
in their own mind.
To do the work of the artist. To do the work that should have been done by the artist and technically we should have been paid for that work.
Yeah, for that creative work or get a share of the profits or something like that. Maybe there's a class action and the settlement out of the class action is that all the movie going public will forego their lost earnings for the work that they did by coming up
with the better ideas in their own heads.
And all the film studios have to go through their films
and remove the ambiguities so that it doesn't happen again.
And so Marcellus Polis' in the suitcase was a bike light.
It was just a bike light.
It was a bike light, but a really good bike light.
It was a good quality bike light. It was just a bike light. It was a bike light, but a really good bike light. It was a good quality bike light.
Exactly. Like, you know, it's an NLA,
it's near Silicon Valley.
Latest time.
Yeah, latest, latest bike light technology.
You just come out gold light.
It was used with gold film, so thin you could pass
light through it.
And as we know, gold is the most valuable thing on earth.
Especially if it's very thin.
Very thin.
You know, he's very much.
Same amount you would put, say, on a meal, didn't you?
People like things that are gold.
People like things that are thin.
What's the most valuable thing?
Thin.
Are you working way too hard for way too little?

Fitting gold.
Fitting gold.
And I think that's fun, the class action.
Right.
Of the audience creative labor.
It is, well, it's like all these wage theft cases
that we're getting now, where it turns out companies have systematically underpaid their employees
to the tune of $300 million over 10 years.
I wonder whether I'm owed any wages in that regard.
Oh, because this was Woolworth's.
Yeah, Woolworth's I worked for Dan Murphy's and I worked for Woolworth's. Yeah. Which are all owned by Woolworth's. Woolworth's is owned by Woolworth's. Yeah, Woolworth's. I worked for Dan Murphy's and I worked for Woolworth's.
Yeah.
Which are all owned by Woolworth.
Woolworth's is owned by Woolworth's.
Yeah, and BWS is all I work for them as well.
Yeah, all around the chain.
That'd be great if I just got...
Oh, if they hunt you down.
They find me and give me $300 million.
So this is, there'd be some sort of team
who are like the good version of debt collectors.
Hmm, right.
Who... Or just debt collectors for me.
Yeah.
It's hard to think of debt collectors as working on your side, but that could happen.
Yeah, but you don't want to have to hire them.
So what it does need to be is sort of a credit deliverer, right?
Someone who will sort of mercilessly hunt you down
through any fake IDs that you might have
no matter your weird living arrangements,
and they will make sure that you get your $38.70.
That would be so.
That you are owed.
I deserve that.
Yeah. Or at least, you know, would like it.
Yeah.
$38.70, I could buy one meal with that.
Well, this happened to me with my old bank account
from I was with a credit union in Tasmania,
and then I'd forgotten that I had an account with them
because I didn't have any money in it.
But then they privatized, or they merged with some other company or something like that.
And everybody got a share payout for being a member of the credit union.
And then those shares were able to take them as cash if we wanted.
I got $300.
It's very nice.
But just nothing.
Like about that, that could stimulate the economy for a couple of days.
Oh yeah, it's simply stimulated in my economy.
You know what I'm saying?
Hello, I think that was at the time when you were probably
living off of tax returns.
Yeah.
My own.
My own.
A backlog of tax returns that you hadn't claimed.
Yeah.
So that you could take a year off teaching.
This is how we drip feed information about our lives.
It's true.
We can construct our full identities over the years
Yeah, you know seven years roughly so we've done this podcast. Well, it was a pretty big gap
There was a big gap, but it wasn't as big as we think I think we think I think we thought it was three years or something
Yeah, but I don't think there was a three-year gap
Right, there was like maybe a year maybe one year and then
It was like maybe one year and then... Maybe another year.
Well then there was like some episodes were much more speckled.
Like there'd be one every three months or something like that.
Yeah, yeah.
I think we did a one-off for a comedy festival one year and that kind of thing.
But then we got back into it and we haven't been able to stop ever since.
Well also we were kind of contractually obligated to continue once we joined
Planet Broadcasting.
I don't think we're contractually obligated to continue.
I think we might assign something.
No, we don't have to keep going.
Yeah.
But I think, but also it's one of the more joyous parts of our week.
That's true. You can probably tell.
Yeah, I guess if we wanted to stop, we'd have to quit.
Right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we can't just slack off.
But I guess that's like everything.
That's like every job.
You can't just come in sometimes.
I don't want to quit.
I just don't want to come in all the time.
Yeah.
I just don't want to do it all the time.
Can I do like a...
Be great, so...
I guess that's kind of a bit like what driving Uber is.
Yeah, well, but then you're not an employee, you know, or just a...
Whatever. Let's create the next thing that comes after this garbage... Yeah, well, but then you're not an employee, you know, just a whatever
Let's let's create the next thing that comes after this garbage After the gig economy gig economy, right, okay
Everybody's working all the time. Yeah, okay, great
But your brain is only in your body part of the time the rest of the time your consciousness
Can log on to some kind of
the time your consciousness can log on to some kind of holiday simulator. Yeah, okay.
Great.
So your brain can be elsewhere and this will be the thing, Alistair, when they do have
artificial intelligence, right?
Why would they bother to build robots?
Why not just implant artificial intelligence
into our brains to run our bodies,
which are basically robots anyway?
And then our brains can go and play
in some kind of computer game, our minds.
This will be what the big companies do.
Or it will socialize.
Yes, this will be what the big companies do, right?
Because they're not interested in spending money
to build infrastructure.
That's a huge capital out there.
What you want is to mail out people a chip
that they stick up their nose.
Yep.
Right, and then they just takes over their body.
It just goes on either side of their nostril,
like one of those bull horn,
and that like one of those bull things,
I don't know why.
It just goes like that, just because you need both, you know.
But it's also very symbolic, right,
of the old bulls who would have been put to work, you know,
those layering things, Alistair.
This is art.
This is art.
This is art.
Symbolism, art, metaphors.
Cows, this is like the beginning of modern times
where they see the people walking
and then you see the herds of sheep walking.
And they're different.
They're, well, they're different,
but they're also the same.
Oh, right.
You see what I'm saying?
Charlie Chaplin, this is considered his greatest film.
Modern times, imagery, symbolism, like that. We're just standing on the shoulders of,
however tall that guy was. He was very short. Yeah.
Have relatively short Hollywood people.
Artists standing on the shoulders of artists
who were shorter than you think.
Correct.
But I think, but also,
that still makes you look very tall, right?
Like whenever I think about people who are seven foot,
I'm like, well that's only a foot taller than me.
Like I'm a foot taller than some people, and I'm not a giant. So this person is a foot taller than me. Like, I'm a foot taller than some people,
and I'm not a giant.
So this person is a foot taller than me.
They're not going to be that big,
but then you see them and you're like,
whoa, that is really tall.
You know, and it's because we are only attuned to be in a certain,
see people in a certain range of height.
And as they get taller and taller,
it gets less and less common.
And your brain really triggers when you see someone close to the end of the bell curve,
it being like, fuck, even though they're no taller than me, than I am, than somebody who's that much
shorter than I am. I mean, right now we hang out a lot with people who are roughly three to four feet
shorter than us. Correct. And I never go, oh my God!
Yeah.
You're so small, and they never refer to me as a giant.
But to them, I remember being that small
and seeing adults being that big,
and I do remember thinking they are giant.
My dad is the biggest person in the world.
I don't remember that, but then I don't remember anything.
But my dad was pretty big.
You know, you're six two?
Six two, you're dead six two.
I was six two until about five years ago where he said He was six-two? Six-two, you're dad's six-two. He was six-two until about five years ago
where he said he was six-one,
and like he had changed his mind
on how old he was his whole life.
How tall he was?
How, what did I say?
Old.
How, yeah, how tall?
Light about his height to get into dad's school.
Maybe, well, just yet to be accepted by me.
Six-two, I guess it's like you just wanted to even numbers.
I've written down AI controlled you.
Well, so you, so your attention to
your hours, you log your hours to, you know, or you just clock on and off
whenever you want and then I'll use your body for whatever you'll come to,
yeah, you can check in a pool of blood or something like that.
And it turns out while you're out, you were a hit like in a pool of blood or something like that and it turns out
while you're out, you were a hit man and you murdered 18 people.
I think that you can, I mean, look, that's great too.
But that's fine. I think, yeah.
No consequences for that.
Because you weren't in the trolley about it.
Yeah, yeah.
And you can show them the, the logs.
That's right. I mean, do you think that they can adapt the logs?
The problem with like digital logs is that they are pretty.
Oh, no, they kept all in a book. They're not digital. Yeah, great.
I'm really into that. Do we have a funny twist to this or is this just a genuine sci-fi idea?
I think it'll be funny. Yeah. Yeah. I think the satirical element of it,
you know, being a riff on the gig economy and that kind of thing.
We'll get J.K. Simmons to play the boss.
The boss.
The boss.
The kind of the, the fake Zos.
Yeah, the fake Zos.
Man, he's got to play a Bezos, right?
Oh, yeah.
And.
I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if he changes his name to J.K. Bezos.
Well, just think the J and J.K. stands for Jeff Bezos.
Yeah, that's true.
I forgot about that
I think they mentioned that in no whiplash
Really really they mentioned the actors day. Yeah, yeah, it was crazy. Yeah, it was good
I liked that I was playing my favorite part of whiplash right it was apparently pretty good. Yeah, oh you haven't seen it
No, oh, no, you gotta see it. Does that spoil it? Do you think if I know that yes?
Is that them is that sort you think if I know that? Yes. Yes.
Is that the sort of the twist at the end?
No.
It's actually in the first scene.
Right.
It still spoils it though.
Yeah, the whole movie.
Oh, it's because it's like Tarantino
where they show the end at the beginning.
Oh, OK.
But I didn't know whether you were talking
about the end of the story or the end of the movie.
I think that's the difference between plot and story, which I've never, I've never
understood.
Carly's explained it to me 30 or 40 times.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I, I saw David Mammut describe it by saying it's like a plot of a plane.
It's like, you know, let's say, because, you know, like, so.
Maybe we've had this conversation in the past.
I don't know, but let me just try and try.
I try.
And somebody can write in and try to help me understand it better
and can correct it for me.
But the story should have a definite beginning
and a definite ending.
So let's say your mom...
Tell us you guys' shops.
Your mom dies and she's got a funeral.
I'm kind of sorry.
So we're not thinking about our parents dying.
I mean, not to say my fun.
Let's say, sorry, why am I moving your mic.
Now, let's say your...
Your...
Uncle.
Your best...
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Your mom's best friend dies.
Yeah, okay.
Who was really important to you when you were young.
Yeah.
And you've got to make it to her funeral, right?
Right.
To be there.
So there's a beginning, the dying, and there's a definite ending, which is, and so, what you've got is this period of time that outside of the story, like, if this story won't exist,
uh, whatever, I can't remember what I'm trying to say, but, so then you've got that, and so, you know where you've got to start, you know, you've got to end, and the plot is the bumps along the way, is like the, like, two points and then the sort of like all the little zigzaggy things
that kind of inter-
And the story is just the beginning in the end.
All the narrative.
God.
I don't know.
Maybe it's the story just like,
oh, you're anti-zing, you got to figure out the thing.
Who knows, I don't know.
Mammoth probably.
Yeah, Mammoth probably does.
If you're listening to David Mammoth,
love, textus.
I love to see your work.
I would love to.
I would love to have seen any of your work.
You've heard great things.
But I probably won't.
Oh man, one day I'll see that Glen Gary Glen Ross.
It's a more than just that scene.
Yeah. Always by watches. I think it's always by a b double you always by watches.
Have we got five sketch ideas? No we got four. We got four. Oh, that was a little phantom tick just there.
No, well, that one.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's nothing.
You should have known that.
That's okay.
We can still come up with one more, I think.
Yeah, yeah.
Uh, trusty, what about like a trusty steed?
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, well, this, this, uh, I think I was about to say another thing
that we've actually already come up with,
which is that but that but wheel that you have that you scoot around on.
Yeah, okay.
It's the modern day trusty Steve, but we've already come up with that idea.
Yeah, yeah.
And then I was going to say something where you like buy people instead of horses,
but then I realized that's just slavery.
So I can't really,
firstly, I can't take credit for it
because it's already been invented.
And secondly, I can't take credit for it
because it's not really a good thing
that you necessarily take credit for.
What's the thing that we could do to make rivers more,
like to help rivers survive,
that involve us all getting involved with rivers.
Well, what if instead of rivers, which seems to be an inefficient use of water, right?
Does it?
Well, yeah, you need to have, like, you think about the river, right?
There's, what does the river need to do?
It needs to keep the fish alive, basically, that are in the river, right?
But then there's probably, like, per 10 meters of river, there's, that are in the river, right? But then there's probably like per 10 meters of river,
there's maybe like one fish, right?
And how much water does that fish really need?
Maybe just about a bucket's worth, right?
So what if instead of having a whole river, right?
We just had people with buckets, right?
Running up and down the dry riverbed, carrying fish, right?
And then you can take your fish over
to meet somebody else's fish.
You put them in the same bucket for a while to mate.
And then you spray them.
And then they spawn and one of you runs it back up the river
or even just passes it to the next person.
It creates jobs.
And so we still have this flow of water taking place.
But the water is mostly stationary relative to the bucket,
but the buckets are moving.
Yeah.
And then I think we could basically do,
we could probably design a more efficient way
of getting that water around
and getting it where it needs to be
and doing the things it needs.
Like a chairlift or something.
A chairlift, exactly, right?
And then we don't need to waste so much water
actually having it in the river system
when we can use that.
What about like the plants?
Like the plants and sort of things that are around.
Well, then we'll organize some sort of automatic watering system for the plants, right?
Or maybe some of the people with the buckets have to put some water on the plants.
But again, I don't think plants need the whole river to stay alive.
I was going to say, what if everybody just goes and spits in the river once a week or once a day and
Then think about you know, it's a tiny. Yeah individually. No, but but together. We're probably adding
Giggle leaders. Yeah, well, this is like bees, you know making honey like an individual bee
Doesn't even like makes our tiny fraction of a teaspoon over the quarter of a teaspoon
over the course of its whole life
Right and and and think of that right and then maybe humans can do can do that also
Maybe humans could invent maybe we could make some kind of honey like we might not have we have if we think about this
Like a poop honey like a poop honey or even a spit honey. Yeah spit right if we're about this, like a poop honey, like a poop honey, or even a spit honey. Yeah, spit honey. Right, if we're spitting into stuff,
who's to say that we can't concentrate that in some way?
Well, let's say we don't know,
because we've probably lost touch with it,
the kinds of things that we could make as a hive.
Mm.
You know, what, what,
because we don't use our butt stuff,
or our mouth stuff in the wild. There might be
We put it into the toilet and we flush it away. Exactly. Like what could we make?
We spit into the urinal when we're drunk, leaning over, and about to vomit. Yeah. And we flush it away.
We flush it away. And we don't know whether or not that could create a web for catching prey or
Or could build sort of intricately shaped walls to put our
hands down.
So we deposit our feces into a sort of a clay wall type thing and build an interconnected
series of nests.
Because you know, you know, poo's gonna turn white over.
Did human poo's do that as well?
Or is that just dog poo's?
Well, we don't know.
We don't know.
They're never given a chance.
They're not.
This is a very two in the think tank idea, by the way.
They're given a chance.
And so white is a great color for a wall.
Stucco.
You know?
Yeah.
I do it in Greece.
Exactly.
And so this could be the kind of things
that you would build walls out of to make,
to, you know, I think all the bad stuff in poop is brown.
I think we have talked about making walls out of poop
before.
Constant locates shitting the episode with Jack Dries.
Hmm.
I thought that was just a non-stop stream.
That was a non-stop stream, but you would crawl around
like a 3D printer and make walls and stuff
with your constant stream.
Yeah, we didn't say that you're white.
That's true. Oh, we can stick to spitting.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think spit honey is a thing.
Spit honey?
Yeah.
Is the thing.
But there was an earlier element of that.
Wasn't there?
I was into the river.
Into the river, making, you know, replacing the river with a river of buckets and many hands. Oh, yeah, spitting into the river. Into the river, making, you know, replacing the river with river of buckets and
many hands. Oh, oh, yes, spitting into the river. Yeah, you're right. I think the, I think
a government campaign ad encouraging people to spit into the river, because I remember
there was, you know, the ones that seems silly now, but like when we were growing up, there
was something about how, like, an ad about how dripping taps,
a dripping tap over the course of the year,
waste as much money, as much water as this many milk bottles,
full of water, and they would show you all the milk bottles
and so on.
Similarly spitting into the river.
That's the opposite.
And then a lot of people cross cross say the Swan Bridge in Melbourne,
on their way to work in the morning.
If every one of them leaned over and spat into the river,
think what that would do.
Yeah, with tourism.
For tour, think about all the tourists that are coming here
and we can get all of them on boats under that bridge.
Well, I know, but also all the water that they're bringing from overseas.
Correct.
That's a great way to, you know, to sort of increase the heft of the heft of our water system here in the
shite. Spit pit. We got three words from a listener.
Woohoo! Sorry about that noise.
That's okay. I'm disappointed when you're not making it. Three words come from our
Patreon listener. Bosco Bartolomo. Thank you Bosco. Thank you Bosco.
As you know Bosco has become a three dollar supporter on Patreon.
Support your supporter on Patreon and hence can, given these three words, are you ready?
Yes. What's your guess for the first one?
Oh.
Um, legitimize.
Oh my god.
Oh.
Infinite.
I feel like I was close.
No, that wasn't close.
Oh, OK.
Well, actually, infinity is the one thing that you can never get close to.
Yeah.
I was talking about it.
It wasn't close at all.
Yeah. You chose a single thing.
Do you want to have a crack? I had chosen infinity. He could have been talking about a different
infinity that's bigger. So I wouldn't have gotten it. But that would have been close. The next one?
Lossage? Oh Andy. Yeehaw. Okay.
I'm the third one I'm gonna even, you wanna try?
I was gonna start to study.
You give it a first letter.
I.
Imp.
It's inevitable.
Oh fuck.
Infinite.
Infinite.
Infinite. Yeehaw. Oh fuck. Infinite infinite infinite yaha
Inevitable hmm
Okay
Well, it sort of makes me think of cowboys obviously and it makes me actually think of the movie space cowboys
There's a movie isn't forward forward. What about a mathematician cowboy?
Yes.
Who?
Who, um...
A mathematician cowboy.
Hmm.
Yeah, okay.
Because what he goes and he goes around.
Yes?
Round and up theorem.
Round and up numbers to the nearest integer.
The H.
The H through space.
Yeah, well, it could be through space,
but I do like the idea of like my cowboy mathematician
who comes home to his wife after a long days
you know, out there in front of a blackboard and talks about his day as if he is a cowboy
round on up numbers.
It feels like a Sesame Street sketch.
Yeah, that's fine.
I think that's fine.
We can come up with Sesame Street sketches.
Sesame Street needs sketches.
I mean, wouldn't you be impressed like if you managed to get a sketch on Sesame Street needs sketches. I mean, wouldn't you be impressed
like if you managed to get a sketch on Sesame Street?
Yes.
That'd be really impressed.
I'd be really impressed by myself.
Hmm.
Um, are you do something with a lasu, I imagine?
I don't know what yet.
I mean, but that's what I guess helps to.
Right, right.
That's what he does with his blackboard.
Mm-hmm.
And he rides a blackboard.
Right. It's one of those little tripod shaped blackboards with the four little legs.
Right. And he sits on top, be very uncomfortable.
But he does ride it around.
Yee-haw.
All right. Round up. He calls it chalky. Or blackboard beauty, I'm not sure.
And... I think blackboard beauty. Yeah.
Do you think we should try and get the sketch on Sesame Street? I think so.
We just... We just... Right it up and just send it in.
Yeah, I mean we've already got that one thing about rounding up numbers to the nearest integer.
What do you mean?
Rounding up.
Rounding out numbers to nearest integer.
Yeah.
That's what we've got.
That's the joke.
This one, yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, that's the one I'm talking about.
Yeah, I know.
That's all we've got.
Yeah.
That's the only joke we have so far is what I'm saying.
No, but I mean, yeah, but that's all you need.
It's a Sesame Street sketch. That's what I'm saying. No, but I mean, yeah, but that's all you need. It's a Sesame Street
sketch. That's what that is what they do. They just hit that joke in as many different, from
as many different directions as you can. Great. Yee-haw! Yeah, he says that a lot as well.
I would love it if there was something more fractions
integers decimals
heard
flocks
Square roots and I but you're explaining the idea of rounding up numbers to kids. You're absolutely right. It's all it is
That's all it is. Why do I need another bun? Yeah, we can't we can't get a whole bunch of
New idea mathematical concepts in there in an episode of one sketch
Obsessively stream you're of course you're right. Okay, rounding up numbers. I'll list it. This is very good. Mm-hmm
You're not thinking like Jim Henson Andy. Mm-hmm. Hi, whole. This is
Mathematician cowboy here. No, I lost it. Hi, it's not a hole. That's not bad.
Hi, hole.
Again, you're very talented.
It's a Kermit.
Hi, hole, it's just Kermit.
D-frog here.
It's good.
All right, thank you.
The best thing that I've already,
I've got to stop saying I've already said these things
on the podcast because.
Yeah.
Because people are tweeting about it now.
People are tweeting about their onto us, right?
It's becoming our only recurring gag.
But the emotion that Muppets are able to express
with their hand holding the face scrunches up like that.
And they scrunch in on themselves.
It's an emotion that is unique to Muppets.
But it seems universal.
Like whenever you see them do that, you're like,
oh, I get it.
Yeah, I know that feel like.
I feel like.
But it's not one that we could express anyway.
I wish we could.
Could turn our face sort of concave a little bit.
Ah.
Ah.
Yeah, maybe only Papa could do it.
Yeah, I think his face was already a fair way to be concave.
Yeah, you got to lose all your teeth in order to be able to express it.
Anyway, thank you very much, boss go.
Yes, stink with it,
and think think think think think think think think think think think think.
Oh, when you see sketches.
Think think think think, damn.
Okay, we got the Bougroom Ferry slash the Bougler.
And that's for Bougroom nights, the movie,
where it's about,
it's a time traveler from the future who uses the complex chemicals of the of the human body are used by scientists to
make all sorts of wonderful things that allow us to keep alive for eternity and but it means that
you have to spend your life sort of going around probably mostly, you know, collecting complex chemicals from things.
But we're also much smaller in the future.
Yes.
That allows us probably to live for longer because there's less cells and stuff like that too.
Maintain.
To maintain.
Then we got the mega-nog, which is the drug.
Intense eggnog.
Intense eggnog, but it's a, it's so intense,
it becomes a drug that induces Christmas cheer,
Christmas joy.
And it is potentially going to lead us
to get making a movie based on it
with Christmas with the crank.
But you know, that's down the line.
Then we got the audience creative labor class action,
and it's a class action to get Hollywood studios,
and possibly, you know, publishers of books
to remove all ambiguity from films or fiction,
where the audience has to do the work
and figure out what it's supposed to be like,
the light in pulp fiction.
You know, whether or not the top stop spinning
at the end of what it means. the top stops spinning at the end of
what it means. That it does. At the end of what's that movie called? Inception. Inception. They could
have just let the camera run for another minute or so. Just to let us know. It's a fucking long film
already. Wait, another minute's going to kill you. I feel like yeah, exactly. He could have just
kept going and just let us see whether or not he's in that world.
Stop why do I have to keep pondering?
Then we got AI controlled you
so your attention can be on holiday.
That's when you can just sell your body,
the AI controls it.
This was a thing also that I wanted to get
into my science fiction story,
that I read for Sci-Fi Try Guys,
but I didn't manage to get in there.
But you know how like you can get a,
if your computer's buggy,
you can get like the tech guys to take over your computer
remotely.
I'd love people to be able to do that for like,
you know, if the plumbing's broken in my house, right?
Why can't I get a plumber's brain
to like remotely take control?
And then I can just fix the plumbing myself.
That'd be great.
And the plumber doesn't have to drive out. Mm.
Yeah.
I mean, for them it would be great.
Working from home like that.
Yeah, I mean, this is another one of these great things
that could turn into a film, you know, for a...
But also, if anyone's desperate for sci-fi short stories,
you can sign up to our Patreon right now.
It's a couple of real crackers in the lightest episode.
For the $8 tier, man, we could use the money.
Um.
$8 tier is in heaven.
Yeah.
That's the, that's the, that's the,
would you know my sofa story?
If I saw you on Patreon, you would, you would.
Um, then we got spit honey. That's what it
is. Yes. That's, you know, you know what that is. River of buckets instead. Or river of spit.
Yeah, or river of spit. But, you know, we already got spit honey, you know.
Yeah. Slash, look, I'll put slash spit to fix river systems. And the
mathematician, cowboy rounding up numbers.
It's our Sesame Street sketch.
It's our first SS.
And...
Bums, bats, that would be the thing that I would like to say to you.
To try what stays in the deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, I would say that we have to do the podcast and you had a real good time because we like making it for you at this time
Thank you so much for this. Thank you and you can find us on Twitter at to entangue on my lcTV
I'm at stupid old Andy. You can find me on Instagram at a Trumply virtual
Alistair's been doing some really funny drawings.
Check him out.
Yeah, I mean, I haven't been doing it for a little bit, but.
But they were very, very good while you were doing it.
There was a thing I was doing it for a bit called ATB,
but worse.
I was on the other source.
Oh, that was a different Instagram.
Oh, that was a different Instagram.
Oh, not on your regular Instagram.
Yeah, I think the cutouts thing would be good to continue,
but I just kind of ran out of
Steam time a little bit or steam or whatever
And you can review us on iTunes that helps apparently yeah helps us helps us exactly
But you know, maybe it'll make us more visible who knows yeah, maybe one day maybe in year eight or your seven
We'll trend may go get to the top of new and noteworthy.
Yeah, maybe we're about to try.
We're older and newteworthy.
Newteworthy.
Old and newteworthy.
Yes.
Why is my salamander?
That's the witch thing, isn't it?
Old and newteworthy.
