0:03
Media Network. Hello, and welcome episode one sixty six. Oh I am

the pancil swan. Yeh pants saren, Oh shit, you should have saved
0:48
this for one sixty nine. Oh pants at all? You know what I
0:51
should have. But um, I'm just fucking around. We're not doing our
0:55
voice actor voices, do you. I mean, we can't do it.
0:58
We're all into um some voice acting from you coming pretty soon. So uh
1:07
yeah, welcome to episode one sixty six. Uh, this is gonna be
1:11
another chill show. Um and uh, I know we recently had one,
1:17
as recently as two or three episodes ago. Um, but uh, life
1:22
comes at you fast and this week this week was particularly rough, I think
1:26
on all three of us. Yeah yeah, so we just kind of collectively
1:30
decided to take it easy, relax, enjoy each other's company, and not
1:36
stressed too much about putting together games and you know, difficult to edit stuff
1:42
right right for that, nobody saying anything that I need to cut out please?
1:47
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, the Nazis were right. Yes, I'm
1:53
kidding, I'm kidding. I don't get that it was a joke. It
1:56
was a bit. It was a bit. It was a bit. It
1:57
was a bit. Now, which part do I about out? You bastard?
2:10
You would do that? You cut it both out? And no one
2:17
was giggling for no good reason. It's all it is like what left you?
2:29
Oh? Good? Good? Why did I go there? Why did
2:32
I go there? If you blude like that extra content from Patreon patreon dot
2:38
com saw there is a lot more extra stuff. Oh yeah, yeah,
2:43
not not me saying horrific things like that, though you no, not me.
2:49
It's these two. It really is, really yeah, because we're the
2:52
ones that said it. No, I'm just saying on Patreon you're okay,
2:57
horrific people. Yeah, that's not true at all. That's not true.
3:01
Um well I'm pretty sure you can tell what kind of show this is gonna
3:08
be. Um anyway, Uh yeah, so we might as well do our
3:15
intros. Um, we'll start with he's a gamer and a storyteller. He
3:20
used to be my youngest friend. Now he's just awesome. It's awesome.
3:24
Oh shit, he's a game now? Is that awe as an aweo as
3:51
a as in ah disappointing? It was in as in au a you as
4:00
in started your name. Oh awesome, awesome, awesome. Quick point too,
4:12
it is nice to have a chill show every once in a while because
4:15
that's the only time we really hear our theme songs anymore. Yeah, yeah,
4:18
well now when we do, we rarely do regular shows with just the
4:21
three of us. I know. It's like almost as our games are more
4:26
fun. We literally, we literally can't afford to make jingles for everybody as
4:31
I would love to. Oh my god, in a perfect world, but
4:34
yeah, yeah, a perfect world will give us free audio, Yeah,
4:41
you would do. It would be a dream though, But maybe when we
4:44
get big enough and we can actually hire someone to do that for us regular
4:48
that would be super awesome. Shit, put them on a retainer. People
4:51
would want to come on all the time just to get a thing like what
4:55
about my theme? So I'm gonna be I gotta know, right, It
4:58
would be fun, It would be a do would be a dream anyway.
5:01
I usually ask a question, yeah, but I don't really have one.
5:04
It's all right, questions. There isn't a question podcast, I know,
5:09
but it's it's kind of a way to introduce yourself without with the same old
5:14
shit over and over again. Yeah, so I guess if I had to
5:16
ask you something, I would say, Oh, hey, what surprised you
5:19
this week's surprise? Uh? My constitution? Um oh, because like I
5:26
swear one separate from the United States one. Oh no, no, my
5:30
old and liked constitution. Yeah. Well yeah, in reference to that,
5:36
but I meant more like my health and how my stomach holds out. I
5:41
can't handle a lot of things anymore that he used to be able to handle.
5:46
Like I'm waking up, like in the middle of I going what has
5:49
happening? Just like, yeah, like what can I eat now? I'm
5:57
just like I'm down to bread and I can handle peanut butter and jelly's.
6:02
It seems unfair that you're joining us an old age already. Soups are good,
6:06
but I mean and it's like, oh my god, if he's getting
6:11
old, that means something bad about us. Yeah. No, I I've
6:16
already like curtailed my diet. There are certain things I can't have on the
6:20
regular anymore. And you know, it's just it's just a part of getting
6:23
old. Really it is. I've been having that issue too. Like it
6:27
sucks, but it also like is kind of liberating because you kind of get
6:30
the urge to try new things to fill that gap, you know. So
6:34
I've definitely tried new things to which has been I've found some awesome things,
6:39
So you know, it's it's not all bad. Yeah, so but I
6:44
get what you mean. Yeah, absolutely, though every morning it's just not
6:47
a fun time. I know Stevie does too. We've all been there.
6:51
Yes, and his quote unquote other half, the other half of the Wonder
6:58
Twins. He's a veteran and a podcaster, and as it turns out,
7:03
that makes him a veteran podcaster. It's Stevie. Yeah, that time,
7:16
it sounded like you were trying to work it out in your head, like
7:18
I wis was it was gonna say something different, but I couldn't come up
7:21
with anything other than a weirdo, right, that is that is absolutely not
7:28
what makes you a weirdo. So many other things we list is as long
7:35
as Andre the Giant's arms and a podcaster and I can't even begin And let's
7:45
go down the entire list of things like, oh my god, just days
7:48
hours of YouTube. Just look it up. Yeah, just just watch Steve
7:53
being weird for no. And that's still the tip of the iceberg. Yeah,
7:57
you really you really have to. You have to live them to get
8:00
the full right, oh my god, full Stevie experience. I never even
8:03
thought about that before. Both of you guys have lived with me. Yeah,
8:07
I just never even like put that together, Like, holy shit,
8:09
we've all been roommates sixty six episodes that it's just cluing that we know him
8:16
really well because we lived together. I mean, that is him. I'm
8:24
just gonna add that to the list. I'm surprised he remembered our names.
8:28
As you may be able to tell, Stevie is rather high a little bit
8:31
today my day off, Stevie, did anything surprise you this week? Oh?
8:37
Surprise me? Um? Yeah, But I kind of want to get
8:43
into it a little later because it's more about like it's news about Yeah.
8:48
I want to more get into it in a little bit. It's gonna be
8:50
more in depth. I'm really high. But you're right, I love you.
8:56
Look, thanks, Thanks, I think yeah. I'm gonna say okay
9:01
here here said okay, okay, you know what, Yeah, you know
9:03
what did surprise me today? Actually? I just thought about this because I'm
9:07
so high. This air Rizer XQ two fucking weed bag thing they etch this
9:11
attachment thing. So instead of like just sucking out the hose and just say
9:16
pumping the weed into it, pumps it into a bag. Like you just
9:20
hook it up, a fan blows it all in there and you just disconnect
9:22
the fucking bag and you can just sit there and watch your cartoons. You
9:26
just have a bag. Close it. Like we were in here, dude,
9:33
we did that shit twice. Fuck it and there's a lot and it's
9:39
good. Yeah. Man, I'm like surprised. Man. So if you
9:43
like weed, yeah, bags are cool. It's like a bagpipe. Oh
9:48
my god, dude, it's as they die from that movie that had filming
9:52
the plastic bag, Like, oh my god, it's so beautiful. It's
9:58
like life itself, dude, Like except it's being blown around by red Swede
10:05
smoke blogging it everywhere. Yeah. Yeah, that's yeah, that's very good.
10:11
Uh. Last, but not least, as I said at the top,
10:15
I am your host. Pants's Aaron hit it Aggie here. We are
10:35
uh much love to Mexican by the way, but yeah, they're all three
10:37
of our jingles and doing such an amazing it's perfect credible um and yeah,
10:46
it's it's exciting. Um. As for me. The thing that surprised me
10:50
the most of this week was there is a theory about the Lord of the
10:54
Rings going around on the internet. Tell that Froto doesn't know Lego Liis's name.
11:03
What uh, there's the theory going around that Frodo does not know Legolis's
11:07
name because Legolis literally only speaks directly to Frodo once in the whole move in
11:15
the whole trilogy you have my bow. Yes, that's the only time.
11:20
It's the only time they ever he ever says anything to what to Frodo.
11:28
He doesn't say his name. He goes ah, success exactly what he at
11:33
the end when he's sitting in bed and the others come in, Gimley walks
11:37
in and you see him mouth Gimle and then Legolis walks in and he just
11:41
goes ah. And then Eric Gordon walks in and he mouths Eric Gorry.
11:48
Shit, I never fucking cocked. I mean to be fair, I'm not
11:56
just something you don't think about. I can't just want to go watch those
12:00
just those scenes now, they're like, this show is how much I watched
12:03
that film that I know exactly the line exactly brilliant. That's fucking crazy.
12:09
But yeah, he's true. It's true. He doesn't know Legos. Yes
12:16
he might, Oh he doesn't. He doesn't even talk about them, Like
12:22
even later on he talks about Eric Gorn and that's it. Like he doesn't
12:26
really say Gil the Ranger, right, yeah, the half I don't know
12:31
he was the king guy. Yeah yeah, yeah, but yeah, no
12:35
he I don't believe he does, like maybe Sam does. Does somebody introduce
12:41
them, like to some point when they first meet, does somebody go and
12:45
this is like list, I don't remember that the movie though, I don't
12:48
remember a scene like no, because the elf chick took photo before like right
12:52
before she got really mine, I don't remember what was was the you have
12:58
my bow moment proto like Okay, who the hell are you? Like like,
13:01
no, it's mine? Fuck off? All right, what am I
13:05
going to do with a bow? Yeah, god damn it, what the
13:11
fuck am I? Well that's there was a cartoon that somebody made too of
13:15
like and they're all doing that like you have my sword, my bow,
13:18
my axe, And then he did in the next panel he just has them
13:20
all equipped on himself. He's just walking towards more door with them. Yeah.
13:26
Anyway, that that caught me by surprise this week. Um, that's
13:30
fucking cool. Let's see another thing caught me by surprise. Um, so
13:35
I said last week. And it's true that I am am now signed with
13:41
a publisher. We have moved into the editing process. Um. And I
13:46
don't know what I expected, but I did not expect what I got back
13:50
in a good way or in a bad way, somewhere middle of the road.
13:56
Constructive criticism. Um, no, no, no, no, no.
14:00
This was more of like a it's I think it's called a copy edit,
14:03
because she basically just um tidied up some word choices, tried to clean
14:09
up some sentence structure issues. Um. And I think it was just intended.
14:16
Although she did keep an eye in and she did mention when I spoke
14:20
to her on the phone after I got the edit back, and went,
14:24
um, we should probably talk about this. Um. But apparently she puts
14:31
she puts a lot of the onus of the editing, the copy editing through
14:37
a program. Uh. And to say that some things went wrong, Oh,
14:41
it's a bit of an understatement, like it fucked up the story,
14:43
like all the wording. Then, I mean it wasn't it wasn't like it
14:48
wasn't like unfixable, like, it wasn't like a complete travesty. Um,
14:52
but it was just a couple of really big mistakes that I was just like,
14:56
Wow, I don't really want to get into it because I don't want
14:58
to right right, I'm not I'm not here and I'm not here to slack
15:03
off my publisher. I know. For one, they were a very young
15:05
company. They're just starting out just like me, you know, and there's
15:07
gonna be some there's gonna be some growing pains. Yeah. But anyway,
15:13
so I had I had a conversation last night with Felicity at the publishing company
15:20
about it, um, and she was super cool. She understood my issues.
15:24
Um, and she was like, well, you know this, I
15:28
can't believe this escaped my notice, blah blah blah, and you know,
15:31
and just you know, apologies, but we just moved across the country and
15:35
things are still getting moved in so it's been kind of hackedic here. And
15:37
I apologize if I wasn't paying as much attention as I should have been.
15:41
Um. In any way, long long story short, Um, they've eased
15:45
some of the financial burden on me, which is nice oh um because I
15:48
am responsible for like the first print run, or at least getting it started.
15:54
Um so um, they've cut that down substantially, which was unexpected.
16:03
But I also feel as a good sign. So you know, it was
16:07
like it was like, you know, we just signed this thing. I'm
16:11
like, okay, ready to go, and then oh, never mind.
16:17
There were also a bunch of things that caught, like a bunch of little
16:19
things like you know, just periods or commas and things that well, not
16:25
necessarily they should have caught. And some of the things I found were my
16:27
own mistakes that I went, oh, I should never have left that in,
16:32
you know. So I found a fair bit of you know, on
16:36
both sides, and some of it may have just been I didn't understand why
16:41
they did that. But you know, she might be able to film me
16:42
in. I sent her the list of notes last night, so hopefully she'll
16:47
be able to go through it and you know, get me something that looks
16:49
a little bit more like what I want to put out into the world.
16:56
So fortunately that was a bit of a surprise. But uh, it came
17:00
with a delightful surprise that I was like a little concern that maybe I was
17:04
working with the wrong company. But then she brought it back and was like,
17:07
Okay, that feels a little bit better. Cool. Um, so
17:11
yeah, so I'm definitely still excited to be working with them. Um,
17:15
but I'm going to be taking a much firmer hand with stuff, just like
17:21
I'm just gonna be getting like with a microscope over everything. Remember you said
17:27
so, But it basically meant I spent you know, a good chunk of
17:30
time all this week, you know, not enjoying myself and just like going
17:36
over page by page, sentence by sentence, like literally word by word,
17:40
sometimes comparing it to the original to see or what got changed or how it
17:45
flowed. Yeah, things like that. Yet that I could imagine being Yet
17:51
is going through it again like that? Yeah? Well I mean this is
17:53
after having already done so a ba jillion times. Um, so it's just
17:59
another another thing. But but it's it's slowed things down dramatically to the point
18:03
where I felt like I was working morning and night all this week. Yeah,
18:08
like just NonStop. Uh, and work itself wasn't a lot of fun
18:14
either. Um. Spectrum apparently took their their free SMTP server down, so
18:19
a lot of our customers suddenly had scanny email issues YELP, and I was
18:23
like, great, I got to migrate you over to officer sixty five or
18:27
Gmail or whatever. You might wind up paying for it. I don't care.
18:30
Not my problem, business account, my problem. Um. But you
18:37
know they don't like that, Well you shouldn't used Spectrum server. It's their
18:41
server. It's out there, hanging out there for free. Like basically they
18:44
can take it down whenever they want. Yeah, you're not paying for it.
18:47
It's not secure, it's it's yeah, it's not easy to get into
18:52
that scary to shut all that shit down. Like gmails is still a little
18:57
bit every month or so. You might have to change one setting to let
19:00
it through, but that's about it. Well, they have, I mean
19:04
we're getting into serious nerd weeds here, but they they have. They have.
19:08
Gmail has a lot more security features enabled now, which makes setting it
19:11
up initially a bigger paint in the ass. But it is more secure,
19:15
um, Whereas Spectrum server was literally just put the server name in yeah for
19:22
twenty five and send it off. Of course, you know, anybody could
19:26
see that hijacket. It's being transmitted clear like no encryption at all. So
19:33
yeah, anyway, so uh yeah, So long story short, work sucked,
19:37
my time at home sucked. Uh and but now I'm here, I'm
19:41
free of both of those problems, at least temporarily. So as long as
19:45
we give you some temporary relief. Oh yeah, we're like vasseline or blow
19:49
jobs. Yeah, we're like blow jobs. Wow, you went from suck
19:53
the blows Of course I did. Anyway, anybody else got anything they want
20:03
to talk about before we jump into our first break? I got stuff to
20:08
the second one. May might as well hold off. I think we've been
20:11
going for a good chunk of time. Let's take our break. Cool.
20:15
Um, So we'll be back with our voicemails if we have any uh and
20:19
uh and uh. We'll catch up with what Stevie's got going down and we'll
20:23
find out all about that right after this. Hey, this is Russ,

21:21
Wow, you absolutely just try to get him to say too, what
21:30
a dick with me? I'll have one job and he's fucking with me,
21:38
like, oh, he just has to do the countdown and he just can't
21:41
let him just do it. Nope, it's funny. So it's just a
21:48
game of chicken to see how long he can go until he accidentally sucks it
21:52
up for himself, right, and then he has to edit it out.
21:56
You're listener, We play our music live, so that means when you hear
22:00
it, we are sitting with live microphones listening to music in our headset.
22:04
So it kind of accidentally becomes a game of can we make each other laugh
22:10
when we're trying to keep quiet, because the music is just supposed to play
22:12
and I'm not supposed to hear us goofing off over it, So we do
22:18
all sorts of insane shit, and that just adds to the pile. Yeah,
22:22
anyway, it's fun. It's it's we have fun. We have fun
22:26
here. We have to keep everybody on our toes absolutely absolutely, speaking of
22:32
keeping us on our toes, I hear a little birdie told me that we
22:34
have a voicemail we do literally blurtie is that bucker? All right? Listen,
22:45
it's very useful. I mean, yeah, awesome. I know when
22:48
anybody's trying to creep up on me where it starts singing, hiding in that
22:53
bush bush shakes. All right, but yes we do. What do we
23:02
got? I didn't listened to it, so no promises. All right,
23:03
Well it could be just like several minutes to sword. Let's find out he's
23:11
not here. Man, Yeah, yeah, man, yeah, it's not
23:18
here. Well, okay, all right, it's true. It's true.
23:38
I'm not I'm not marveling at the correctness. Okay, smail, Oh my

23:56

so I'm I get like worried some sometime when I'm in an open area.
26:19
And originally I was going to be a lunch monitor and don't get very
26:26
wrong, which would have been funny. Yeah, genuinely. The kids are
26:33
cool, but it gets loud and it's a big, wide open area.
26:37
There's a lot of fucking kids, man, like a lot and shit,
26:41
and that first night I just I fucking broke. I'm just like, nope,
26:44
I can't do this. I can't handle it. Whatever I message.
26:47
I text the lady like I cannot do this. Nope. If you had
26:49
something back at the house or whatever, cool maybe, but it's too many
26:53
people whatever. I was like, I will still come in tomorrow because it's
26:56
Friday. I ain't gonna leave you shorthanded to be messed up, you know.
27:00
And she's like, that's totally understandable. I appreciate it. Whatever,
27:03
We'll see you tomorrow. And they actually had somebody starting on Monday anyway,
27:07
so it worked out. So it's not like because I felt horrible, I'm
27:10
like, oh my god, dude, I'm like letting all these kids down.
27:14
I'm letting the comedy down. I was like freaking Alley and shit,
27:17
you know, like this sucks. I've never had this issue before, like
27:21
last couple of years time. Well, I mean, you know, and
27:27
not just like you know PTSD stuff, but also fucking COVID. Man.
27:32
Yeah, that's that's where a large percentage of my public anxiety comes from,
27:37
is COVID. And it's still I mean, COVID still exists. Yeah,
27:41
we we we kind of treat it like it's not really a thing anymore,
27:44
but it still very much is. And I, uh, whenever I'm out
27:48
and there's like a huge crowd of people, I immediately just start getting super
27:55
anxious, right, And I can't imagine how much worse it is around kids
27:59
who are basically German factories anyway, So it gave me wrong. It's like
28:03
everybody's sanitizing and stuff, but still like that worrisome. Yeah, but it
28:08
was all right, Like I went in, Uh, what day is it
28:11
taste? I wentn't yesterday, which was Friday, my last day. Yeah,
28:15
And when I went in there, I wonder my juggling bean ball bean
28:18
bag balls. So I spent three hours just juggling and entertaining the kids.
28:25
And I guess it was the first time they never had to shut the lights
28:27
off because they were getting too loud or anything like. They all listened and
28:30
all that, and everybody had a great time and stuff, and it was
28:33
actually pretty fun. And I was so focused on not dropping the balls or
28:37
dropping them on like weird funny ways or magically making them disappear, that the
28:42
anxiety wasn't there because I was so focused on doing that and entertaining the whole
28:47
time. Yea was still helping doing everything I was supposed to do. But
28:49
I was doing that, like from table to table and it was a great
28:52
time. Well, apparently a couple of the teachers and a couple of the
28:57
other lunch monitors were recording me doing that and they sycle to the lady who
29:02
hired me, and I didn't realize that or whatever. We're all talking or
29:07
like, it'd be really cool, you know, like you're not gonna stay
29:10
after this. We appreciate all your help. We got somebody coming in Monday
29:12
to take your spot, which is totally fine. But if you ever want
29:15
to come in just to come into entertain like the volunteer, you should come
29:18
and do that, like go down to the office tell the PTA, blah
29:22
blah blah. And I'm like, okay, that'd be kind of neat,
29:23
like if I could just come in like once every now and then say hi
29:26
to everybody. So i walk out to the car we're getting ready to leave,
29:30
and I'm like, oh, I got a message from the lady who
29:32
hired me, and I'm like, okay, cool. She's like, I
29:36
heard you were the hero today. You're stuck with us and you can never
29:38
leave, don't get your fingerprints done, and we will talk tomorrow. And
29:42
I was like, blah blah blah. She's like, I got a substitute
29:48
cook spot for you, so you're gonna be the new substitute cook for the
29:51
school. I'm like yeah. I was like, that's so great. So
29:56
I get to go in early and it's only from like eight to one,
29:57
you know, it's like simple shift. Yeah, I go on early,
30:00
prep food all day and then cook it. So I'm really happy. And
30:03
I'm still you know, how to do that. Yeah, and I get
30:07
to still hang out with the kids every now and then and stuff. Yeah.
30:08
Fun. So I'm really excited. And he'll be around to save the
30:11
day again. So yeah, that's super cool. Yeah, that's it's it's
30:17
a much more smiley story than I was expecting, right it started. Yeah,
30:23
it's you know that, Like I remember hearing on Hollywood Babbel on Ralph's
30:30
current Ralph Armin story about how he got severe anxiety being put in the full
30:36
head the makeup prosthetic. Now he couldn't handle it and he felt so bad.
30:41
And I was like, I was getting flashbacks to that when you were
30:44
explaining how bad you felt, but this had somewhat of a more happy ending
30:48
because you turned it around by juggling, which is so weird. Three hours
30:55
like this is Stevie's whole life, I swear to God. So walks into
31:00
place and just you know, starts clowning around. People are like, I
31:04
love you, Can we keep you? Do? You know what? The
31:07
crazy part is this whole story, the time, your entire life. I
31:14
worked what six hours totally, maybe six and a half between the two days.
31:18
I'm already getting a five dollars an hour raise quick day one, get
31:25
the raised day. Oh you know what, I actually actually do have some
31:30
additional names. Yeah, go ahead, but it's gonna be real quick.
31:33
But I got pulled in my poss's office last weeks amidst the nightmare, getting
31:40
hammered with calls for a scanty email and all that shit, and he just
31:45
oh he no, right, uh no, he's a ginger male, so
31:53
don't know one of those. So my boss gives me this super stern look
31:57
and I'm like oh, and he goes, congratulations on your four thousand dollars
32:02
a year raise. Who really, And he's like, yeah, yeah,
32:07
craft dude, nice. Now it's not it's over the months and weeks or
32:14
whatever. It's it's not it's not really a raise. It's it is it
32:20
is basically am an excuse for them to take the company van back. Uh
32:25
So now now I'm gonna have to pay for my own gas to drive in
32:29
to work, and so it's it's kind of a wash um. But I
32:34
think just doing the math, I'm pretty sure I'm still making out a little
32:37
bit. I'm getting a little bit, you know. So it is it
32:40
is a little something. But if you don't have to like leave your house
32:45
or something for that day, like okay, that day, I didn't waste
32:46
any gas, there's no milele, it's yourselthing, you know. Well.
32:50
And they also added another day for me to come into the office. So
32:52
now I get to work from home one day week. Yeah, yeah,
32:55
you got COVID again, that kind of you want some tests? Oh,
33:00
trust me, I'm gonna be looking to catch that motherfucker. I can I
33:06
can do it from home. I can be I can have COVID and still
33:07
troubleshoot and I can resolve eight percent of the dude, I could do I
33:12
could do my entire job at home, right, I could do my entire
33:15
job. I pretty much did the last year and a half. Am I
33:17
the man just they just want me there so I can be under their accountability
33:22
all the time. They want control. Yeah, that's what it really is.
33:25
Yeah, that's like listen, everything will get done if you leave me
33:30
the fuck alone, everything will. But everybody we have it is additional good
33:34
news. Yeah a race, yeah, dude, yeah yeah, hell yeah
33:39
that's nice. Well that just leaves I got more. That just leaves me.
33:45
Yeah. So what's been going on with you? Why? Why has
33:47
this week been so hard for you? Why is this? So? I've
33:52
just been working, um, doing a lot of physical exertion, so I
33:58
just getting home very tired. But one thing is is that because the what
34:05
I'm doing has me working with water a lot, so you get wet when
34:09
you work with water. This is what's happened. But what's funny is is
34:15
that we have a hose that, for whatever fucking reason, the water pressure
34:22
on it is just way higher than it probably should be. So it kind
34:28
of acts a little bit like a fucking fire hose. So if you don't
34:31
have a go, if you don't have a good control on it, it
34:37
will just whip around like a fire hose would because of all the water pressure
34:42
or whatever. And I can't tell you. Just this week alone, I
34:45
have sprayed myself in the face no less than a dozen fucking because of this
34:52
stupid fucking hose. And the best part is it's not just me, my
35:00
co workers also get themselves. Okay, it's this fucking hose. It's like
35:07
it's it's convenient where it is, but it's inconvenient because it's too powerful.
35:12
You gotta make a suggestion at work when you go in tomorrow and say,
35:15
from this point forward, can you guys to save all the security footage of
35:19
us getting sprayed and clip it all together for the Christmas party at the end
35:22
of the year, we watch it, everybody getting like sprayed or something.
35:24
Just clip That'd be so freaking hilarious. Man, that'd be something fun,
35:30
Like, don't we get the joke at the end of the year everybody gets
35:32
hit with it and stuff. That would be fun. Just actually start doing
35:37
that, like every time we do something stupid. Yeah, compilation of us
35:43
water boarding ourselves. I mean I have to we there. We have like
35:51
uh koi and these large fish cant bays and during water change you have to
35:57
kind of go in and scrub the size. You get the algae off for
36:00
the bottom, so you reduce the water level as low as you can,
36:02
just over the dorsal fin of the fish, and then you scrub the sides
36:06
to get all the loose materially off. But because of how deep the basin
36:09
is and I'm not as tall as they keep thinking I am, I almost
36:14
fall into it and go swimming with those fish like every time. So I
36:21
have to literally like a fine like anchor my foot on something and then bend
36:25
my whole body into the bay so I can scrub it upside down. Essentially,
36:34
it sounds like a fun job, though, I mean no, no,
36:37
I love it. It is everything like it is a perfect mix of
36:39
animal husbandry meets retail, which is what I have literal years of my life
36:45
of experiencing. Right, So it's a job in the summer, you're with
36:50
water a lot. Yeah, it's nice. Yeah, you're always able to
36:53
do. Yeah, it does get high, especially in the greenhouse, but
36:58
yeah it's nice. Yeah, and a lot of sun. I've got a
37:01
nice farmer's hand going on right now. It's my favorite. I would get
37:07
that every year just by keeping one arm out the window or whatever. Yeah,
37:13
hell, yeah, all right, then, well, um, I
37:16
guess that covers all of us and everything we've been up to for the past
37:21
week or so. So yeah, I guess we'll take another break, and
37:25
then I guess Stevie's got something exciting planned for us. I do, which
37:30
is always worrisome. Yes, So Aggie and I will quietly stress out as
37:35
we lead into this break, and we'll be right back right after this.
37:46

39:24
to ask you, are these bfy t W show titles or are you being
39:29
Stevie? Fucking damn. So I'm gonna go back and forth. I have

ten prompts, so I'll start with one and then go to the other,
39:44
so you'll each get five. Okay, okay, all right, So we're
39:46
gonna start with Aggie. All right, Aggie. The first prompt show number
39:53
thirty voice acting windows, ninety eight doctors. Is this a real bfy t
40:01
W show title? Or are you being Stevie? It's gonna make me want
40:07
to go back and listen to these episodes. I know, dude, I
40:08
was doing it today. I think I'm getting stevied, you don't call that
40:13
one. I think it's real. I think it's real. It might be
40:15
from your really early stuff, in which case I'm fucked. Are you going
40:21
with your being Stevie? Yeah, you would be incorrected. Is a real
40:24
title. It would be embarrassing if it was one that I came up with
40:30
you. Yeah, like it was show one yea oh fuck? All right,
40:36
Aaron, you're ready, Yeah, you're prompt showed number forty six.
40:40
No More Bastard's chilling, not being Stevie. I'm being like crazy, there's
40:50
no no more. You do not belong in the same sense. Well,
40:54
Aaron, you would be incorrect that it is a real shot. I don't
40:59
God damn it. I'm sitting here like there's no way we started doing No
41:04
More Bastards as earliest episode forty I guess we have. But you know what,
41:07
it's true. We did play with Jorge several times. We did.
41:12
It had to be that when the street started. Yeah, and I started
41:15
playing with you guys too. Yeah, you start after, but god damn,
41:22
I got tripped up. Yeah, it did my own internal logic.
41:24
It's not gonna be easy. No, no, no, okay, okay,
41:30
we're going back to Augie for this one. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
41:34
Show number fifty two Waka Waka and Talkie. No being Stevie, st
41:40
that's real, Augie. Final answer, being Stevie. Final answer, you're
41:47
correct, you are being Stevie. The actual show title is show number fifty
41:53
two Chill Talkie Show, Chill Talkie show. Added. I don't think we
42:04
have a I could swear there was one episode title to start with Waka Walker,
42:12
but there probably is. He probably stole it from something else. I
42:15
don't know. For a further one. Maybe we can do a walk.
42:21
Stevie returns, dear guy, all right over to Aaron. Number four.
42:27
Yeah, show number sixty two Cattle prod Manual stimulator. Is that a real
42:37
show title? Or are you being Stevie? Me? Oh, man,
42:43
I'm gonna it's a guess, but I'm gonna guess it's real. Final answer,
42:47
Yeah, you're correct, that is a real show title. It was
42:52
one of horse pitches. I think I vaguely recalled something about a cattle prod
42:57
being pitched at some point. Very nice, damn all right, Augie number
43:06
five, I know I'm not given score. I don't even know if I
43:10
am you don't want to got one point so far? Oh okay, yeah,
43:15
you're good. I got one. Yeah, yeah, well, I
43:20
mean oh, I thought you're addition for you as I know you got one.
43:22
No, no, we're good. Uh, Aggie, you're a number
43:24
five. Show number sixty three the List returns a new hope. Fuck because
43:37
that might be Oh man, when did when did we botch the Eltra Hope
43:42
List? Uh? I think that's real. It's real. M. I
43:49
gotta gotten the episode number wrong, but I think that's real. Okase,
43:53
show number sixty three. You are incorrect. You are being Stevie. It
43:58
is show number sixty three Revenge of the List. Yeah, yeah, there
44:05
was. Yeah. The very second episode we did of the List was kind
44:08
of a shortened version. Um, it was literally just I think it may
44:13
have been the three of you. I think so. It was a lot.
44:15
It was three people. And I remember this specifically because instead of having
44:20
five people, uh you, you had three people and two extra lives.
44:24
Yeah, but you guys got tripped up on the rooms in the Clue Master
44:30
Detective. Yeah, oh my god, trip you up at the very end
44:34
of the show. Anyway, it's so much fun. I can't wait to
44:38
go back and go through all these again. This is gonna be great.
44:42
Yeah, I love these freaking things. All right, onto Aaron yep number
44:46
six, Show number sixty nine, Playing games with rest Ferry. I'm being
44:53
Stevie. That's that's not the title. You are correct, You are being
44:59
st Yeah. Actual show title it shows number sixty nine Rest Ferry returns.
45:05
Yeah. Always like playing gives the rest Ferry does not sounds fun. But
45:10
yeah, but that's not right, all right, Aggie. Yeah, on
45:15
to number seven, Show number seventy two. No more dumpster fires for these
45:22
bastards, no more dumpster fire for these bastards. I don't think so.
45:28
I think that's being Stevie. Stevie, Yeah, any reason why. I
45:34
don't think we'd never label it that way. It just doesn't make sense fair
45:37
enough. I feel like we weren't doing dumpster fire that early. Yeah,
45:43
it could be another mistake, like right, Yeah, well, show number
45:45
seventy two. You are correct, you are being Stevie. The actual title
45:50
is no more bastards pitching a dumpster fire, opposed to because no more dumpster
45:57
fires for these bastards. See you like it isn't sound right because it sounds
46:05
in the negative. We wanted it in the positive, right, all right,
46:08
onto Aaron. Number eight, Show number seventy seven. Aquarious sound bites
46:15
crap. Yeah, that's real, that's real. Quarious sound bites, crap
46:28
al r. You would be incorrect. It is not really well done.
46:34
Thank you, thank you. Now the actual show number seventy seven is fish
46:38
Museum clips bullshit. Well, at least see where you got there. There.
46:53
We're laughing at our own goddamn joke because they're funny. All right,
47:00
is your last one? Yeah? Number nine, show number eighty back to
47:05
basics b f y t W back to basic sounds is right, but I
47:12
don't know if we had a bfy t W At the end he was answer,
47:19
Okay, damn, I thought I could seaman answers hens TV sheet.
47:27
They're just whole questions. He doesn't. He's making the whole thing up,
47:31
like what can I make? All right? Fly, I honestly think I'm
47:36
being Stevie here. Yeah, you're incorrect. That is the true title of
47:40
episode number eighty. Felt like that was probably real. All right, On
47:45
to Aaron, is your last one? Eron number ten, Show number eighty
47:49
four? Nobody miss labels Nemo. I don't know. Part of me wants
48:01
to say it's real, and part of me thinks it's. Everybody mislabels nemo,
48:07
Um, I'm being stevied and Eric is incorrect. Yea that right away,
48:20
I'm like, no, I can't laugh because to give it away.
48:23
So that's the end of this round of it's stur being Stevie and you guys
48:29
are tied to too. So good job everybody. Wednesday, we all get
48:31
Eminem's. Yeah, everybody have fun. I hope everybody have fun. Did
48:37
you guys like that wasn't better? It was funny though, because I'm like,
48:46
I'm like, okay, some of these do sound like something Stevie would
48:50
come off the top of head. But the thing is is half the titles
48:53
we do, more than half. I'm almost like ninety percent of them were
48:57
like our titles that Stevie comes up with. Anyway, Yeah, so he
49:00
becomes is what I'm saying. Yeah, it's hard unless you're actually looking at
49:06
whatever the fun don't use. There's only a few that I helped to come
49:08
up with. Unless, like Aaron has it in the description, I go,
49:12
I'll grab those every now and then, But half the time I don't
49:14
see it. When I'm doing it, I'm like, oh shit, this
49:16
is called this now. But yeah, I hope you guys enjoyed that version
49:22
of It's Stevie today. And if you didn't, fuck I don't give a
