The Last of Us - The Fun Guys vs Shivin' Bitchez · Fandomonium! A Fandom Comedy Game Show

• 0:00
  Hello, Hello, Hello, Welcome back to Gateleaper's Season three. Year three.
• 0:05
  We recommissioned ourselves. We did it. We have that power, and
• 0:09
  here at Gateleaper's HQ, we are starting our year off with an absolute blinder.
• 0:15
  Team Captain Jason volunteered to sit in the games Master's chair for the first
• 0:22
  episode of the season. That's right, I will be a team captain.
• 0:26
  I will be a regular lowly player. Not that our players are lowly,
• 0:30
  They're absolutely fantastic, but I am. I am lowly when I am demoted
• 0:34
  to such a status. This was so much fun. Dare I say,
• 0:38
  one of our most chaotic episodes to date, and you already know how these
• 0:43
  can go, So that's quite a claim. And Jason decided that we should
• 0:47
  game in the world of The Last of Us, a video game series supposedly
• 0:53
  my favorite video game series. But I don't know if my answers reflect that.
• 0:57
  I just consume things and then I move on. I don't really think
• 1:00
  about them. That's why I'm the games Master. I like to play on
• 1:02
  other people's knowledge of things. And of course, The Last of Us is
• 1:06
  now a hit HBO series, so it felt like the perfect time to play
• 1:11
  a series of games and trivia challenges inside that world. Of course, the
• 1:15
  gate Leapers weren't here alone. No, we have two fantastic returning guest players.
• 1:22
  First up, Dan Felton of the Hard No Podcast, a brilliant new
• 1:26
  ten part podcast series all about lies, deception, the Internet age. The
• 1:32
  first episode is all about memes and the meanings behind them. So look,
• 1:37
  if you've ever seen a meme, you'll find it interesting. But if you
• 1:40
  just interested in the modern world around us, how it works, how it
• 1:44
  shapes us. Oh, Hard No is a must listen. Dan Offord to
• 1:49
  send me more than just the first episode in advance, but I was like,
• 1:52
  no, Hard No, I want to wait until this is out on
• 1:56
  podcast platforms so I can listen weekly like everyone else. Because I already can't
• 2:00
  wait for the next episode. I'm going to have to I'm going to have
• 2:02
  to wait a week. So yes, there is a link to the first
• 2:06
  episode in the description of this episode, so after you've done listening here,
• 2:10
  go listen to that. It's so good. It's genuinely so impressive. The
• 2:15
  content that can be made just from your bedroom. Essentially, it's fantastic.
• 2:20
  This show, Hard No. There's so much more out there. Just consume
• 2:23
  independent podcasts. It's just better. It's better for you. And we were
• 2:28
  also joined by friend of the podcast, dungeon Master Extraordinaire in the he's my
• 2:32
  dungeon Master and he is extraordinary new father congratulations Derek Logan, who long time
• 2:39
  listeners may remember from season one from the DC episode. So there we go.
• 2:45
  Derek's back. He was brilliant as always, And I suppose I should
• 2:49
  promote the Patreon because if you're hearing these words at the start of the podcast,
• 2:53
  that means you're probably not a patron and that's fine. Absolutely, please
• 2:57
  continue to listen to this show for free. I personally wouldn't have it any
• 3:00
  other way, but there are some bills to be paid. There is some
• 3:04
  upkeep to this podcast, so if you can consider supporting us on Patreon,
• 3:09
  it's now better than ever as starting this year, there will be video versions
• 3:15
  of every single game that we play, So right now over at patreon dot
• 3:20
  com forward slash Gate Leapers, you can find the video version of this very
• 3:23
  episode if that sort of thing interests you, so you can watch Jason sit
• 3:28
  in the hot seat and host for the first time. Very entertaining. Also,
• 3:31
  it's genuinely unedited and uncut, so you get those meta, awkward behind
• 3:38
  the scenes moments between everything. If that's the sort of thing that interests you,
• 3:42
  so yeah, and you get that with any tier of the Patreon,
• 3:45
  as well as ad free audio episodes and our monthly bonus episode Fandom Flashback,
• 3:52

• 3:57
  culture stories from the previous month in the form of a little game show.
• 4:01
  Because that's what we do here at gate Leapers. So leap Frogs, that's
• 4:05
  what that's what Jason decided you're called. Now, if you're a fan of
• 4:09
  this podcast, you are a leap frog. I think that's cute, so
• 4:11
  let's run with it. So leap Frogs, sit back, relax, unless
• 4:15
  you're driving, then maybe don't relax, Stay vigilant and listen to this chaotic
• 4:20
  first episode of season three as we leap into the fandom of the Last of
• 4:26
  Us. Hello, and welcome to gate Leapers, the pop culture panel game
• 4:48
  where we shine a spotlight onto everyone's favorite fandoms. I am your games master
• 4:53
  and fungal infective Nightmare Matt Watson. Wait a minute, No, I'm not
• 4:59
  I'm Jason in. Returning listeners will be surprised by my voice starting off this
• 5:02
  week's episode. But to start season three of our show off with a bang,
• 5:05
  I'm hijacking match chair and giving him a taste of his own medicine.
• 5:10
  Yes, yes, welcome to Hell Medicine. I'm ready to taste my own
• 5:15
  medicine. I'm gonna drink it down like a good boy. Oh, I
• 5:17
  don't like this anymore. No, I don't like that you've turned it on
• 5:20
  me. And speaking of players, I cannot do this podcast game show alone.
• 5:25
  I've tried. But if you go through this zombie apocalypse, who own
• 5:28
  you go insane? Isn't that right? Bill? So? Yeah, I
• 5:30
  did a reference character yeas on his own and yeah, yeah, saying that
• 5:36
  if you did it without it. Yeah, I wrote that about seven minutes
• 5:41
  ago. Okay, oh, you're even taking my message. I've forgot I
• 5:45
  forgot that that was I missed that part in the script. Yeah, So
• 5:47
  thank you for the template. So I'll need two pairs of Joels to play
• 5:51
  my foil. Please welcome your team Captain's fellow gate Leapers Addre Stevenson, Hi
• 5:58
  and Matthew Watson. Hell, oh that's my full name that my parents use.
• 6:02
  I haven't written in the script. He hates when we call him Matthew.
• 6:05
  Yeah, yeah, that's great. So matt how's the captain chair going
• 6:09
  so far? It's it's fine. You know, it's not as good as
• 6:14
  being games Master. I'll say that right now. I'll say, yeah,
• 6:15
  front, so any of I might be indigent. Yeah, I was just
• 6:18
  about to say it's kind of like a demotion, but not really, because
• 6:21
  this role is also really hard. Yeah, I'm nervous. I'm as nervous
• 6:26
  as Ellie trying to kiss a girl, which he's done lots of times.
• 6:29
  But also but that's so first time. Yeah, you know, is it
• 6:32
  is nervous award at first. So yeah, that's that's how you feel.
• 6:34
  You feel like a young lesbian E three day my life. I think I
• 6:41
  always feel like we have a lesbian and I think that's a mantra of mine.
• 6:43
  Thank you, this is and this is the space to explore that I
• 6:46
  feel. But yeah, hold on, power Dynamics, you can't do this
• 6:48
  to me. I'm sorry. Sorry. Yeah, yeah, I will coward
• 6:51
  to your will. Yeah, I'm a lowly team captain. Yeah yeah,
• 6:54
  and yes I'm ready for games. Well, thank you, Thank you.
• 6:57
  Captains. Um, So, are you guys ready for a show about yet
• 7:00
  another sad, grizzled Zaddi who learns how to communicate his feelings as he adopts
• 7:05
  an outspoken and spunky young sidekick. It's a great genre. There's so many
• 7:10
  m there's a lot of them, there is. I've seen a lot of
• 7:14
  interviews with Pedro Pascal talking about like the comparisons of the Mandalorian and you're a
• 7:19
  dad here, like people would compare those two different things to It's so it's
• 7:27
  so fun to hear him respond and be like, I absolutely see why you
• 7:31
  would make those comparisons, but no, the Last of Us is just such
• 7:36
  a deep, rich lore and you get to really, I think in this
• 7:40
  when you really get to see him become human again and like, basically I
• 7:45
  get well, you'd say that, but you're fucking wrong. And he was
• 7:48
  also like, I'm hot and you get to see my face in this.
• 7:51
  Yeah. Nice. Speaking of which, you guys mentioned Pedro being on the
• 7:56
  show. What are your respective knowledges this fandom? How are you guys feeling
• 8:01
  about the Last of Us? I'm I'm feeling good. It's my favorite video
• 8:05
  game probably of all time, if we're doing that whole list thing. But
• 8:09
  I also don't ever remember. This is why I'm the games master, because
• 8:11
  I never remember things about the things i'm a fan of. Oh, that's
• 8:16
  great for this trivia base game exactly, exactly. Oh the shoe's on the
• 8:20
  other fun Welcome to hell man. Yeah, are you saying it's your favorite?
• 8:24
  Like that's a lot of I've probably played the Last of Us one ten
• 8:28
  times. Okay, that's going to be really bad when you lose. Yeah,
• 8:31
  I've watched you play it twice, and that's that's just the ones you
• 8:35
  saw. Place has like two tenths of your knowledge, But it's really like
• 8:41
  one point five because she didn't play it. She just watched you play it
• 8:45
  two out of the ten times. Do you know what that means? I
• 8:46
  can really pay attention to the story beats I'm not I don't have to die
• 8:52
  getting overrun. Yeah, that's more like twenty two percent of what matters.
• 8:58
  Yeah, I can really process each step and our motivations and what's happening.
• 9:05
  Okay, all right, so I've been honest there, but I could set
• 9:07
  myself up for a fall a bit more by saying, yeah, I'm gonna
• 9:11
  do amazing and this is going to be fantastic and I'm gonna win. You
• 9:13
  should so that you prop your team up better, because in order to play
• 9:18
  these games about the last of us, you'll each need to team up with
• 9:20
  your versions of Ellie, right if you're the Jewels, when you need your
• 9:24
  Ellie. So, Matt, who is your teammate today? I didn't write
• 9:28
  these parts. That's all right, I can do this on the fly.
• 9:30
  I'm a professional. My teammate today is a podcaster, a writer, a
• 9:37
  documentary maker and all round fantastic friend and fantastic collaborator. It's Dan Felton of
• 9:43
  The Assaulted formerly the Assaulted Goods podcast but soon to be the fell in the
• 9:48
  name soon to be but if the timeline he gave me is correct. Also
• 9:54
  the Hard No podcast, which is coming out, should be out when this
• 9:58
  episode releases. Oh fantastically, Yeah, I've heard the first episode. It's
• 10:03
  very good. Yes you were exclusive club member. You are but yes,
• 10:07
  Dan, Hi, thank you Dan, thanks for joining us. Returning guests,
• 10:13
  happy to be back. Excellent, It's it's we're happy to welcome you
• 10:16
  back. You were an absolute blast, respectively. Again listen to the Simpsons
• 10:20
  episode and Game of Thrones. Dan really killed it, especially in Game of
• 10:24
  Thrones. Good episodes. Yeah, but Dan, you killed in Game of
• 10:28
  Thrones, you killed in the Simpsons. How are you feeling about the Last
• 10:31
  of Us? How much do you know about it? I'm a little more
• 10:33
  conservative on this front because I've played. I've played a game and a half
• 10:39
  of it, and I watched the HBO show's first episode like four hours ago,
• 10:45
  so nice. That's the extent of my expertise. And I'm a little
• 10:48
  I'm a little rusty, so I'm feeling a little bit more, a little
• 10:52
  bit more in the dark on this one. I'm hiding about Game of Thrones.
• 10:56
  But all right, Dan, Yeah, I'd like to see my self
• 11:00
  too, you know. Yes, I've got a good teammate, two two
• 11:03
  humble boys over here. I don't like it. I want to stoke the
• 11:05
  flames, and it's to stoke the flames, Audra. Who's joining you today?
• 11:09
  I am joined by returning guest, longtime friend and dungeon master extraordinaire Derek
• 11:16
  Logan Ollo. That's quite the introduction. I love it and I am excited
• 11:22
  to be back. Uh, Derek, It's good to have you back.
• 11:26
  Two days two d Yeah, yea overwhelmed when there's two das. But Derek,
• 11:31
  it's it's really exciting to have you back. It's really exciting to have
• 11:33
  you back as the games Master because you beat me in DC, which is
• 11:37
  the only comic thing that I've lost thus far, and it was well,
• 11:41
  it was a well one game as well. Listen to that episode with Derek
• 11:45
  and it. How are you feeling about the Last of Us? You know,
• 11:48
  I think pretty similar to Dan. I have played both games, but
• 11:54
  at the same time, they're kind of so depressing and upsetting at moments,
• 12:00
  especially like the second game there. I think there are certain things where I
• 12:05
  was like, yeah, I don't think I ever want to think about that,
• 12:09
  So we'll see. And also, like Dan, I watched the first
• 12:13
  episode of the HBO series of this morning, so yeah, super super pumped
• 12:18
  about that. Yeah, it was a good one. We've all we've all
• 12:22
  watched the first episode of Game of Thrones. Watch it on HBO Max.
• 12:26
  Last of Us what I say, we've all watched the first episode of Game
• 12:28
  of Throw. I've got Game of Throw. Just watch Game of Thrones on
• 12:33
  HBO Max. Yeah, while you're waiting for the next episode of Last of
• 12:37
  Us. While you're waiting for the next episode of Last of Us, you
• 12:41
  don't go back watch Game of Thrones, watch The Wire, the Sopranos,
• 12:46
  whatever is. There's lots of stuff, a lot of bangers fat. Okay,
• 12:52
  Well, our teams have survived. Hey, harrowing character setup, which
• 12:54
  generally includes like a personal character deaf like with like a deep cut. Yeah,
• 12:58
  that hits like an early Game of Thrones episode. That's why I Game
• 13:01
  of Thrones on the mind. So now i'd like a Last of Us themed
• 13:05
  team name. Oh yes, these are things I'm notoriously bad at. Let's
• 13:09
  see you guys. Oh no, I forgot this was a format point and
• 13:13
  I designed the format. Okay, also forgot about this, but that's not
• 13:18
  surprising. Who's going first? Let's say, Matt, time to prepare.
• 13:24
  It's more on the fly, and I don't like you d okay, Yeah,
• 13:28
  sorry, you're an active revenge for all previous times he put you on
• 13:33
  the spot. What No, I wouldn't This is about like, I don't
• 13:39
  have I didn't preplan anything. I'm thinking we set ourselves up as the villains
• 13:43
  a little bit. Okay, So I'm maybe thinking like the mushroom guys,
• 13:50
  some if we can play on like Cold Decepis or something. I do like
• 13:54
  the fungal angle you're going for. Yeah, let's go fungus I I yeah,
• 13:58
  we could be the fun guys. Oh, it's a classic joke,
• 14:07
  reached for the easy ones, straight from your grandpa's joke, Buck. I
• 14:13
  do like it. Though it's a callback, it's a throwback. It's just
• 14:16
  vintage enough to not be chuggy. So let's go with the fun guys,
• 14:20
  the fun guys. I love it, Thank you, Dan. I also
• 14:22
  just love how much funkal conversation there was there where It's like, I don't
• 14:26
  know if we could play off the court acepts part of it. You know,
• 14:31
  you knowledge flexing your knowledge already, eh, I just remember it from
• 14:37
  the show that we also watched long hours ago. All right, Adre,
• 14:43
  Derek, you know I should have I should have thought about this beforehand.
• 14:48
  I was looking up, like, what are the best weapons in Last of
• 14:50
  Us? Um? Typically a gun? Yes, shiv shives do good okay
• 14:56
  work okay. I like stealth games, okay, um, but I found
• 15:01
  very little that was helpful to me. So um I was speaking with the
• 15:09
  hopes that I would come up with something like in the back of my mind,
• 15:15
  yeah, you know, I the first thing that popped into my head
• 15:20
  was also going the fungal route, something like fungus among us or some or
• 15:28
  are going off of yours. We could also just be the shivin bitches,
• 15:33
  Okay, I like this shiven bitches, yes, because we are bitches who
• 15:39
  shive or we shive bitches? Which one do you think I'd say? Uh?
• 15:46
  Why not? Boff? Why that is lovely stuff. Have fun typing
• 15:54
  that out in the because I'm hosting, but you still got to edit this.
• 15:58
  Have fun putting that on the episode now, yeah, put it with
• 16:00
  a Z if that makes it or stars asterisks. No, I think we'll
• 16:06
  find the female on the podcast said it. So I think we're right.
• 16:08
  I think we're okay. I just know that I is the mail. I'm
• 16:11
  the one who typed it on the episode list. But yeah, I said
• 16:15
  it. I'm with it. We don't get to revoke your feminist card yet,
• 16:21
  Matt. One of these days, minds questionable, but probably eighty minutes
• 16:26
  of this podcast lest left. We'll see exactly all right, those are great
• 16:30
  names. I love it. The fun guys and the shivn bitches. All
• 16:34
  right, everyone now comes the next point of the script. Yea a great
• 16:40
  segue. Let's catch everyone up on the fandom so we can all achieve passing
• 16:45
  knowledge. See how you guys are married? See how you guys are married?
• 16:51
  How could you know the last time if either of you was a camping
• 16:53
  trip about two years. You sleep with each other every night, there's that
• 16:57
  connection. Yes, that's that's actually what we do every night, is we
• 17:00
  just say things in times, look deeply and in there you know. Now
• 17:07
  you're right, you're oh god, married people. Disgusting, stupid Derek.
• 17:12
  It's my third time, my third time of the show. And I should
• 17:15
  have known to jump in on that queue right there. I'm a little like,
• 17:18
  but they would have been the lag and yeah, yeah, oh you
• 17:22
  mean passing knowledge. It's fine, will edit that in. Oh, you've
• 17:30
  got a monologue. Huh, you've got a whole monologue. Yeah, I've
• 17:32
  got a lot. I've got a couple of things here. It's at three
• 17:34
  five paragraphs, Yeah, something roughly there. All right, guys. So
• 17:37
  The Last of Us is an action adventure video game series developed by Naughty Dog,
• 17:41
  creators of such notable video games such as Uncharted, Crash Bandicoot, and
• 17:45
  Rings of Power. It's a D and D type video game. Familiar with
• 17:49
  Rings of Power. Yeah, look it up. It's that's all I know
• 17:52
  about it. Yeah, but it's just Amazon load of the Ring show absolutely
• 17:56
  ripped it out exactly, just another Bezos you can flounder um. The series
• 18:03
  features two games, one DLC, an expanded combook series apparently a live show,
• 18:07
  whatever that means, And as of right now, you've got the release
• 18:11
  of the first episode of the HBO adaptation featuring Pedro Pescal and Bella Ramsey.
• 18:15
  Two Game of Thrones alums Thrones on the brain again. Yeshsh it makes sense.
• 18:22
  It makes sense why you'd have that, Yeah in the back of your
• 18:26
  mind. Yeah yeah, yeah, absolutely so, thank you for that.
• 18:29
  We follow Joel, a smuggler who reluctantly takes on the job to smuggle Ellie,
• 18:33
  a young teen whose immunity to this world's specific flavor of zombie apocalypse may
• 18:37
  lead to humanity salvation or lead us on a journey of growth, emotional attachment,
• 18:41
  feelings of betrayal, like it's rough, but like you get it too,
• 18:45
  Like that kind of thing there's lots of killing God and then that dalc
• 18:49
  really got me in the fields man, like it's it's it's tough, it's
• 18:52
  it's a whole ride. Like I know that term is outdated, like in
• 18:56
  the fields or whatever. Well, wait, with millennials, we can say
• 19:00
  whatever we want. We're already considered out of the out of the peak hip
• 19:07
  time. I don't say that. Don't say that. I could still be.
• 19:11
  I could still be go to with the sauce. I could still dab
• 19:12
  in a floss, you know, keeping a hip. The head of our
• 19:21
  TikTok channel. Also for a warning for this episode and listeners. This this
• 19:27
  episode will be spoiler heavy. I just I just figure that we're going to
• 19:32
  talk about things or I'll probably put some things in there. So if you
• 19:34
  don't already spoiled on the HBO show, be warned. Google it or something.
• 19:40
  I don't know. Yeah, I'll come back, come back and listen
• 19:41
  to this episode. After the you're right, you're right, go and play
• 19:45
  the video games. Pause this. Yeah, go. You can do it
• 19:48
  on story mode if you want. The am assist is pretty helpful. If
• 19:52
  you want to get like through it like quick, just do that and then
• 19:56
  come back, put that episode in your ears, and then listen to it.
• 20:00
  I do love that Audra is the advocate for non gamers who game.
• 20:03
  Yeah, I just think that a lot of the boys around me got this
• 20:07
  really major leg up in the idea. Yeah, the idea that failing is
• 20:12
  fine. Some games you need to die several times. Boys do fail a
• 20:17
  lot, and we do act like it's fine. And every single time I
• 20:19
  fail, it's like my entire life is in question. And if I played
• 20:23
  video games earlier, I might not have that. Everyone should game. Back
• 20:29
  to you, Yeah, everyone should game. But before we get to this
• 20:32
  game, let's talk muses. Because today's teams won't be completing this podcast game
• 20:37
  show alone. No, each players brought a muse from this fandom to inspire
• 20:40
  their victory. Matt, what's inspiring you from the last one? Yeah,
• 20:44
  that was a much better segue. By the way, that was a fantastic
• 20:45
  segue. That was not bad game my muse. I've thought about it well
• 20:52
  in advents, because that's what I expect people to do. I'm joking.
• 20:57
  I'm my mus is Naughty Dog, like the games company that makes the last
• 21:02
  of us, and I'm choosing them because as a games company. I really
• 21:06
  like them. I know that they have the whole thing of like they've forced
• 21:10
  their employees to work a lot, but it's like every game studio you know,
• 21:12
  and all of capitalism, Like that's how they play this game. They've
• 21:17
  been doing it for one hundred and fifty years. They're very good at it.
• 21:18
  But I want to shout out Naughty Dogs specifically because I feel like as
• 21:22
  a studio, they have grown up with me, and so I feel inspired
• 21:26
  by them constantly. I remember playing Crash Bandicoot as a seven year old and
• 21:30
  being like, this is the best thing ever. And then I remember playing
• 21:34
  Jack and Daxter as a twelve year old and being like this is the best
• 21:38
  thing ever, and then Uncharted as a sixteen year old and that's okay,
• 21:42
  Well yeah, yeah, the second one was better. Actually, yeah,
• 21:45
  that's a fair point. They make him a more well rounded character by the
• 21:49
  second one. Yeah. And then just at a point where I was like,
• 21:52
  I hadn't played video games for about a year year and a half,
• 21:56
  Last of Us came out, got a PS four, played Last of Us.
• 22:00
  I was like, Naughty Dog has got me back here, and I
• 22:06
  haven't stopped gaming for a decade now. So yeah, I think just as
• 22:10
  a studio, I like that they've grown up with me. They've not done
• 22:12
  like the Disney thing of all right, we're done with that generation, Let's
• 22:15
  feed on some more children. I sort of expect Naughty Dog to be maybe
• 22:21
  the first studio to win like an Oscar eventually of like an adaptation of an
• 22:26
  I feel like they'll make the first video game that's also a cure for dementia.
• 22:30
  Like, they just seem like that studio that's going to constantly age and
• 22:33
  grow as I do. So therefore, I'm inspired by them because they played
• 22:37
  directly to me, and I'm an egotist. Fantastic, that's what amused is.
• 22:42
  Man, that's great. Yeah, Naughty Dog is going to partner with
• 22:45
  someone that's going to make the first controller for when I have arthritis. Yeah,
• 22:49
  exactly, you're going to be the first people to make that, Yeah,
• 22:53
  crunch bandicoot because his bones are just going all the time. That's good
• 22:59
  stuff. Man, Well, that's that's a great mus I do like that.
• 23:02
  Naughty Dog is a great muse. Now, Dan, what's going to
• 23:04
  be inspiring you today? What's your muse? Well, I I only came
• 23:08
  up with this minute before the show started, showing my level of copation.
• 23:11
  But my musing to be it's going to be an item that is both incredibly
• 23:17
  useful in the game and also in real life. My muse is duct tape
• 23:22
  because no matter what problem you're in, it is it is the solution for
• 23:26
  so many problems, and it's an essential piece of all the crap you have
• 23:30
  to make on the fly. To agree with you that on Dan like one
• 23:34
  one application where it's not the best, you're r out of toilet paper and
• 23:40
  in which does fly P're not brave enough, I think all right? Jabbing
• 23:47
  at the games Master early on, curious about the game mechanic in question where
• 23:51
  you had to wipe your ass. We told you, you know it's a
• 23:56
  dark story, right, that's part of your character backstory, got it?
• 24:03
  Loss of a child on the slow, removal of as Slow Go Slow is
• 24:10
  gonna make it way against the gun. Not this is the first time I
• 24:15
  thought about wiping my eyes with duct tanks. You haven't been in my brain,
• 24:19
  boy. You're welcome, okay, Terry, Please bring us out of
• 24:23
  this sloop and tell us what's inspiring you. Hopefully it's not ass air um
• 24:30
  so I know it's kind of an overdone trope, but for me, I
• 24:33
  think my muse is the badass daddy with the adorable slash badass adoptive daughter trope.
• 24:45
  Speaking from a father's perspective, Is that is that where that's coming from?
• 24:48
  Maybe, and you may be able to hear my daughter in the background,
• 24:52
  I'm sorry she's having me that she is pissed about it. It adds
• 24:56
  to it all. It's like, yeah, you father, you cannect Joel
• 25:00
  more than any of us can. Yeah, And it's just a trope that's
• 25:04
  always gotten me, whether it's you know, Gerald of Rivia or the Mandalorian
• 25:11
  obviously, or if you're a Marvel Comics fan, cable and hope like that.
• 25:15
  That trope has always gotten me. And maybe now that I'm a dad,
• 25:18
  it's kind of like, yeah, I'm a big softy dad. But
• 25:21
  in my head, I would like to think that I could be that if
• 25:26
  ship went down, you would protect her with violence if needs be. Yeah,
• 25:33
  but only if it went down, yeah, yeah, only if the
• 25:37
  apocalypse happened. Yeah yeah. If I like Derek outing himself, just initially,
• 25:45
  just like I like these dads, I want to be these dads.
• 25:47
  But I know how to communicate. Yea, I have emotional intelligence. Thus
• 25:51
  there is no story. I would just yeah, which makes for a great
• 25:57
  person but a boring prote Yeah about it. And last, but not least,
• 26:04
  Audra, what's inspiring you today? I'm sure you've thought a lot about
• 26:07
  it. I have, well, I've thought a moderate amount about it.
• 26:12
  Um. I'm inspired by ophio cortesceps unilateralists. Okay, science, yes,
• 26:21
  um, I put my emphasis in weird places on that. But that's the
• 26:26
  Corteceps virus in ants ah, the one that they talked about. Yes,
• 26:32
  and so I'm a microbiologist. The idea of fungus like mushrooms talk to each
• 26:37
  other. Shit's wild. There are so many. They're so closely related that
• 26:44
  like, oops, this one is indistinguishable from this one. But this one
• 26:48
  will kill you, and this one is basically harmless. There's mushrooms that are
• 26:52
  at the base of trees, and if that tree requires certain nutrients, it
• 26:57
  will become toxic so that an animal will eat it, die and feed the
• 27:02
  tree that it's feeding off of. Oh, like wow, that's gray.
• 27:07
  Fungus is insane. Yeah, And for me, I'm not super into zombie
• 27:12
  things. But when I heard, oh shit, this is cortesceps, like
• 27:18
  I had a familiarity with that infect We saw it in the first part of
• 27:22
  the episode. They explain it, which warmed my heart, infects the brain
• 27:29
  of an ant. Basically, it's more complex. Mind controls it into doing
• 27:34
  the propagation of this fungus, and then it's typically only found in tropical climates.
• 27:41
  But if the world were to get warmer, who's to say it couldn't
• 27:45
  mutate. Here's here's a I'll keep this brief, but here's a here's an
• 27:48
  interesting discussion point. Do you think it's feasible that this mushroom virus could infect
• 27:55
  us? Yes, let's move on. Is why you mushrooms this particular one,
• 28:00
  Probably not, But I mean virus like fungus, viruses, any type
• 28:04
  of bacteria. I mean, we saw COVID. This shit happens. Deep,
• 28:10
  I'm starting to feel like the talk show host, the uncomfortable talk show
• 28:15
  host from that first You're like, gulp, you're telling it happened. You're
• 28:19
  like, you're very much, but we're all remembering. The older began this
• 28:22
  segment by saying, I'm a microbiologist, so We're like, oh shit,
• 28:26
  this is real, but I like, things have been doing this for so
• 28:33
  long and humans have only been around for so like for certain part of humanity.
• 28:38
  We y, god, it's fine, but humans are going to be
• 28:47
  the ones that kill humans. It's not going to be anything. It's not
• 28:49
  gonna be much. Thank you very much. Humans are gonna thank you for
• 28:55
  growning us and bringing us back from spare. Yeah. Such a relief that
• 28:59
  we will be our own gym. Yeah yeah, absolutely. Jeez. All
• 29:06
  right, teams, sorry, should we should be started with me? I
• 29:11
  think that's all right. Got in the other way, And there's some bright
• 29:14
  sides to the zombie apocalypse, like putting a little tiny cowboy hat on this
• 29:18
  massive around one. Yes, yes, yeah, you like that in the
• 29:30
  game. It's funny because it's juxtaphysician. It's a little tiny hat, big
• 29:34
  dinosaur. And that's what I just did there. I'm not bad at this
• 29:37
  anyways. Around one it's called so quotable. The Last of Us is full
• 29:42
  of memorable and deep quotes that question morality and tug at the heartstrings. Yes,
• 29:48
  as we play through the world dialogue heavy game, Dialogue Heavy Game,
• 29:52
  some pretty good quotes out there. I think one of the most quotable games
• 29:55
  potentially of this generation. I'll say that, yes, be safe. Yeah,
• 30:00
  so I did that for the trivia round. It is really easy.
• 30:02
  Okay, Yeah, so it's it's it's it's pretty it's pretty simple. I've
• 30:04
  got two quotes or I've got some quotes here, not just too. Yeah.
• 30:08
  Yeah, there's there's one question which quote you answer it wins? Uh
• 30:14
  No, I've got some quotes there by either Joel or Ellie. Okay.
• 30:18
  I will go to each team with the quote, and then you just tell
• 30:22
  me if you think it's Joel or Ellie. Okay, one point, pretty
• 30:25
  easy, right, Yeah, I can do that, all right. I'm
• 30:27
  gonna start off with Audra. Yeah, and I've been starting off with Matt
• 30:32
  a little bit, so let's start off with not Audre, but but the
• 30:34
  shivn Bitches. Sorry, Derek you're here too, we are Yeah, all
• 30:40
  right, the shivn Bitches. Your first quote is swear to me, swear
• 30:45
  to me that everything you said about the fly fries is true. Oh that's
• 30:48
  gotta be gotta be Ellie. Yeah, that's gotta be Ellie. You guys
• 30:53
  locking that in because I think she's talking about that they already had some Boddy
• 30:57
  spoilers somebody else who was immune. Are you sure though? Are you sure?
• 31:03
  I am doubly sure, because you're trying to get me to change my
• 31:07
  answer. Locking it in, locking in in, Well, that's a good
• 31:08
  lock in because it is, in fact, Ellie easy, easy softball for
• 31:12
  the first one. You gotta start him off like that. Yeah, yeah,
• 31:15
  so we get a softball, Dan, Yeah, yeah, I think
• 31:19
  I think the fun guys will get this. I think the fun guys will
• 31:22
  get this. Your quote is I guess, no matter how hard you can't
• 31:26
  escape your past. Oh, I guess, no matter how hard you can't,
• 31:33
  I'm thinking, Joel, because like Ellie's a kid, you know.
• 31:36
  Yeah, like a whole lot of past going on there. We've all had
• 31:40
  passed Dan, you know, is it really about how your pastors? Yeah,
• 31:47
  in this world, I'm thinking I'm thinking more past. I'm thinking more
• 31:51
  elder statesman past. He's the one with the things in his past that affect
• 31:56
  him throughout the narrative. So yeah, I'm happy, happy to go with
• 31:57
  Den's answer that Okay, yeah, let's go try Joel. That's a good
• 32:02
  that's a good guess because it is right, Thank goodness, excellent good stuff.
• 32:10
  One on one. Yeah, it's easy being a player. Are you
• 32:15
  always stressed about so far? You're you're also throwing some shade at me.
• 32:22
  I'm stressed. Yeah. I didn't know what kind of player i'd be,
• 32:27
  whether i'd want to antagonize the opposing team. But Derek, Derek is my
• 32:30
  dungeon master, so I can feel that wrath on a weekly basis. You
• 32:35
  know that's all right, Derek. You're not You're not a vengeful person,
• 32:38
  aren't you. I mean, we've got a session tomorrow night. It's fresh,
• 32:45
  all right, Derek. Let's see how you guys do hear shiving bitches?
• 32:50
  After all, we've been through everything I've done. It can't be for
• 32:52
  nothing. Oh so vague distinct. I know this quote, do you?
• 33:00
  But I can't remember who says it. Oh no, my heart says Ellie.
• 33:06
  What does your heart say, Derek? Like, honestly, I was
• 33:09
  like sixty forty Joel. But if your gut is saying Ellie, what's your
• 33:16
  gut feeling sent thirty eighty twenty, it's probably sixty forty, we're back at
• 33:25
  fifty fifty. God o, Sorry, can you repeat the quote, yeah,
• 33:31
  absolutely, After all, we've been through. Everything I've done. Can't
• 33:36
  be for nothing? What have I said? In a Texan accent? But
• 33:38
  I done? Yeah, he's done, Audre. Do you think it's Ellie
• 33:45
  talking about what she's done in the second game? Is that what it's talking
• 33:52
  about may happen? I could feel the second game she's got so much fucking
• 33:59
  pass. Yeah, I if let's go with Ellie and if it's wrong,
• 34:05
  there Derek's fault. Is that what you're saying. No, if it's wrong,
• 34:07
  it's my fault because that's what I went. What my sixty forty was
• 34:10
  my Yeah, my my gut switched to Ellie. Now, yeah, okay,
• 34:15
  I'm feeling that I'm feeling. But if it's still wrong, it's still
• 34:19
  my fault. Let's lock in Ellie. Locking in Ellie? Okay, lots
• 34:23
  of debate. Sixty forty years, sixty forty there, fifty there's a math
• 34:28
  heavy episode, and the math is on your side because it is, in
• 34:30
  fact Ellie, it is from the second game. Yeah, look at that?
• 34:36
  Good? Look at that? All right, So let's see if the
• 34:40
  fun guys can follow this. This streak so far, it's like a penalty
• 34:44
  shootout it's round one. Why am I fist pumping? Should I do all?
• 34:52
  Should I do all? Voices in like a Texan accent? It throw
• 34:54
  you guys off. I mean, your game's monster. You can do what
• 34:57
  you want. Let's see what my Texan accent sounds. One in a Texan
• 35:00
  accent, just for my enjoyment. Yeah, to the edge of the universe
• 35:05
  and back endure and survive, to the edge of the universe and back dur
• 35:09
  and survive. I don't want you, Dan, but I don't think Joel
• 35:14
  would ever say any of the Firefly things because he did it with a Texan
• 35:17
  accent. I did it. Yeah, it's a little it's a little profound
• 35:22
  for him. Yeah, I'm Joel a dumb guy. He doesn't strike me
• 35:25
  as a universe kind of guy. Yeah. I think he's more pragmatic.
• 35:31
  He's practically does things. Yeah. Um, so I'm thinking Ellie, I'm
• 35:37
  thinking I'm with you. I'm thinking Ellie as well. All right, all
• 35:40
  right, I'm getting with Ellie. All right, you guys go with Ellie.
• 35:43
  So the funny thing about that is, you guys gotta right. Yes,
• 35:46
  it's not a Firefly quote. Oh it's not. It's from her favorite
• 35:50
  comic book series. That's right, and in which case, if people really
• 35:52
  want to get semantic, I believe Joel has repeated it once. However,
• 35:55
  it is attributed to Ellie. Okay, yeah, okay, yeah, because
• 36:00
  Joel is like being a dad trying to connect with her on her alrty bush.
• 36:04
  Yeah, I'm gonna comic. Yeah it's a comic. Yeah, I'm
• 36:07
  probably gonna ignore this. Lats Mac that she's reading. Its gaitar is awful.
• 36:16
  I just don't really need care you care. But also it's off like
• 36:22
  it's bad. Yeah. What's the Asian guy's name, Randall or something like
• 36:25
  that. I don't think it's Randall Remis. I don't know. I think
• 36:29
  it's Remis, but it doesn't gode well. But I can't remember it,
• 36:31
  so I hope there's no question Asian guy. I can't remember it either,
• 36:34
  and I really connected with that guy. So that's all right, all right,
• 36:38
  shiving bitches. Next one for you guys. If somehow the Lord gave
• 36:44
  me a second chance out that moment, I would do it all over again.
• 36:47
  Oh, that's that's Joel. It's like because it's Joel talking about the
• 36:54
  end of the first game, right, that's what I think too. Yeah,
• 37:00
  that what you guys are locking in. I think it's for sure Joel
• 37:04
  talking about how he would still go back and save Ellie. That's what I
• 37:08
  think. All right, what you guys think is correct. It's a good
• 37:13
  think. It is Alie or Joel only two characters. All right, now
• 37:25
  the fun guys, before, yes, before I lose my mind? What
• 37:30
  did the Mermaid where to her math class in Algaebra? Oh that's a joke.
• 37:36
  Okay, that's a joke. I think I know this one. Dan.
• 37:39
  Yeah, again, I'm playing the character unless you've got in, unless
• 37:44
  you've got inside information. He doesn't strike me as a joking type. No,
• 37:49
  no, this is this is Ellie's thing. And I mentioned playing this
• 37:52
  game ten times. The main reason was to get all of the trophies,
• 37:58
  and there was one way. It's like, you have to make sure you
• 38:00
  stop and listen to all of Ellie's jokes at various points throughout the game.
• 38:05
  And I did two full playthroughs where I missed one each time. You don't
• 38:08
  think he would do a dad joke. He is a dad. I think
• 38:12
  he has a dad joke. Again, it's the same with the comic.
• 38:14
  He engages, but I don't think he's ever the one reading the jokes.
• 38:19
  So yeah, I'm gonna say I agree, I agree. I think it's
• 38:22
  an Ellie cloke. Okay, hey, that getting that trophy paid off because
• 38:25
  it is, in fact ellis good job. Good to know I didn't waste
• 38:30
  thirty hours never on this. On this there's always other chances, you know.
• 38:37
  Yeah, I'll find you waste to waste them. Yeah, like this
• 38:40
  game because your next question, shiving bitches, is when o'clock is hungry,
• 38:46
  it goes back for seconds. It's like it's four, Like it goes back
• 38:52
  for seconds, but also for the number four because it's a clock. It
• 38:55
  was seconds or time, but also seconds the meal in which you get the
• 39:00
  second portion of them. I don't. I don't know if I understand the
• 39:06
  joke. Can you explain it? Yea, when o' clock is hungry,
• 39:10
  which is hilarious in itself, because so, what are your thoughts on this
• 39:16
  one? My instinct is to go with Ellie again? Yeah, so dad
• 39:22
  jokes in a row. Here's here's the thing, though, there's one moment
• 39:28
  in the second game, if I remember right, we're like Ellie is pissed
• 39:30
  at Joel because he didn't tell her the truth and he didn't tell her the
• 39:38
  joke. Yeah, he was like trying to get back on her good side
• 39:45
  or something, and and he he did one of the jokes. But I
• 39:50
  don't know if that was the joke or not. So what do we want
• 39:52
  to is that something Jason would do. I know that there was a joke
• 39:57
  that Joel may or may not have said. I leaned towards Ellie because Ellie
• 40:02
  told most of the jokes. But I do know Joel told one joke.
• 40:06
  I just can't remember what it was. I hope you mete it. This
• 40:09
  one my monologue that I did time. So the previous question didn't really help.
• 40:15
  That's added more confusions, Yeah, which which honestly makes this so much
• 40:21
  harder. Do we want to risk it on it being Joel? Do you
• 40:28
  want to risk it? You know the shivin bitches are risky bitches. Yeah,
• 40:32
  I say yes, Joel, it is not Joel, It is in
• 40:38
  fact Ellie. Dude, you double bluffed us, bluffed us whichever many times.
• 40:46
  There's not a lot going on up here. I'm very bad at poker,
• 40:50
  which ordered that went now, he just bluffed us. I am excited
• 41:00
  for this last question of round one, okay, because there have been some
• 41:04
  compelling arguments on either side, But the fun guys have one last quote.
• 41:08
  Okay, what's the downside to eating a clock? It's time consuming? Right,
• 41:15
  So you've put another joke in there, Yes, I have, And
• 41:17
  so that would imply that unless you've played the worst hand of poker rector,
• 41:22
  which you've You've just said and it's all three Ellie, this would be the
• 41:25
  Joel joke. Right, That's That's what I'm thinking too. But after that
• 41:29
  last display, now I'm not so sure this could go. This could go
• 41:35
  either way. Hold on, wait, Jason, could you could you possibly
• 41:37
  tell me the joke again but then explain it with an additional four sentences.
• 41:39
  I don't feel like, oh yeah, yeah, Now this one. I
• 41:44
  don't know about the nuance of this one is kind of hunger is really kind
• 41:49
  of goes back in apocalypse world. There's an irony to that because you might
• 41:53
  eat a clock, you know. And the extra irony is that we've branded
• 41:58
  ourselves as the fun guy, criticized your your joke reading, we encourage the
• 42:05
  fun I'm in agreement. I feel like I feel like maybe this was the
• 42:12
  joke Derek was talking about, I think we've got to and if it's because
• 42:15
  if it's not, would she make would she not only make all three of
• 42:19
  these jokes, but would she make two clock jokes? Is her material that
• 42:22
  redundant? I will say if thee gets redundant. There's a book, the
• 42:27
  book that Riley gives her that she reads off in the Last of Us one
• 42:31
  is referred to as no pun intended. It takes two I think t o
• 42:36
  O, which honestly, that's our take two. That's what it is,
• 42:40
  which is a terrible pun because it's it's just based on the many different versions
• 42:45
  of two in the English language. Is bad. Yeah, but that is
• 42:47
  the joke book, and the Last of Us wiki has every single joke in
• 42:51
  it. He's trying to throw us off. This is definitely the Joel joke.
• 42:53
  I think I think I'm with you. Yeah, I think I don't
• 42:57
  think I really am gonna put the pressure on Jayson. He put three consecutive
• 43:00
  Eli jokes as Yeah, I was hoping that someone would remember the Joel joke
• 43:07
  and remember that it is time related and double bluff them in that way.
• 43:10
  But so, yeah, you guys get that point. Right there. That
• 43:16
  is the Joel joke. Yes, so Derek was on the right track.
• 43:21
  Oh no, I wouldn't have. I would not have guessed, Joel.
• 43:22
  If Derek had not said, I shouldn't have explained it. I'm gonna say,
• 43:30
  Joel, no reasons in your mind, Nothing good ever happens from educating
• 43:36
  people with more information. I don't know. I think I think my reading
• 43:40
  of the questions was really informed, and I think it made people laugh more,
• 43:44
  you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, everyone who descends the jokes,
• 43:46
  yeah yeah. Knowledge is half the power, guys. So with that
• 43:51
  exciting round one, my first round one, which was nice. It was
• 43:53
  pretty good. You always remember your first time. Yeah, that's the end
• 43:58
  of round one. And hold on, guys, wait, hold on?
• 44:01
  Is that a majestic herd of giraffes passing by, juxtaposing against the dilapidated ruins
• 44:07
  of the apocalyptic concrete jungles, showing that life life always finds a way.
• 44:14
  No, bitch, it's the squares. So far, the fun guys are
• 44:17
  up by one, four to three. Very exciting start. That's only round
• 44:22
  one, though, So now it's time for the upcoming improv round. Matt
• 44:25
  so gracefully I'll put that in the template, you know. Okay. Yeah,
• 44:30
  So is it gonna be like that Guitar Mini game and Last of Us
• 44:32
  two where we get some elliot hits? Oh? Yes, Oh, look
• 44:37
  at that that YouTube compilation of someone playing a good or are we just going
• 44:39
  to fuck around with the buttons and break our controller? Yeah, and just
• 44:42
  make incoherent noise robs. Yeah, it's probably gonna be that. Round two
• 44:52
  is called Papa tell Me a Story. I really blanked and I thought this
• 45:01
  was funny. Right now, Papa tell Me a story. Yeah, And
• 45:05
  if you ever decide to use this game again, Matt, you have to
• 45:07
  call it Papa tell Me a Story and say it like, Okay, Papa
• 45:12
  tell me a story. Okay. Well, look, if it's a good
• 45:14
  game, yeah I will. I think it might be, you know.
• 45:16
  So here's here's how Papa tell Me a Story works. Both teams will have
• 45:21
  to pick three words out of a collective word bank and then give me an
• 45:25
  elevator pitch on a new last phase, game, comic book, movie,
• 45:30
  film, agitation, whatever it is, right, okay, and you guys
• 45:34
  will choose each word playground style, so you take turns. One team gets
• 45:38
  up word you other team gets another word, and you got to build it
• 45:42
  with those three words. Okay. I might be legate, I might allow
• 45:45
  variations, but you gotta use those three words. If you don't use those
• 45:49
  three words, de duct a point for every word you don't use. I'm
• 45:52
  just adding that now and make it spicy. All right. So the first
• 45:57
  word bank is I'm gonna say collectively for everyone, and then we'll go for
• 46:00
  a team to pick which words you want out of that word bank. The
• 46:04
  first word bank is ellie, infected, continuation, cheese, cheese, bit
• 46:16
  and butts. Okay. The first team that will go is, oh,
• 46:22
  we'll give it to the fun guys since they won the last round. Is
• 46:25
  there a word from those you'd like the most? Then I think I'm enjoying
• 46:31
  the idea of including the word cheese. Yeah, let's go for chaos cheese.
• 46:37
  We're choosing cheese, all right. So you guys got cheese, shivn
• 46:40
  bitches. Which of the rest of the five words would you like to choose?
• 46:45
  Do you have a preference? I am pretty open. I would like
• 46:49
  to go for one of the easy words, like ellie, all right,
• 46:53
  Ellie for the shivn bitches? All right? Play it. I'm not gonna
• 46:58
  say the word coward. Yeah, guy, your next word tactics? Okay,
• 47:07
  what the full woods? Infected? Continuation, bit and butts. I
• 47:14
  mean we could choose ultimate chaos and say butts. Should we go back to
• 47:20
  playing it's safe and get something? Get infected? Yett? We need we
• 47:24
  need a plot point affected cheese? All right, shiving bitches, You guys
• 47:30
  have continuation? Bit and butts? Should we should we just do? But
• 47:36
  let's do butts. You know I've been impacted by being called a coward and
• 47:40
  I'm all right, Fun guys, continuation or bit. I think with cheese,
• 47:47
  we're gonna need bit, aren't we. Yeah? Yeah, I'm with
• 47:50
  you. Cheese. We formed, We've formed a narrative. Yeah, definitely.
• 47:57
  Shiving bitches, get continuation? All right? So those are your three
• 48:01
  words. Teams, go ahead and pitch me starting with the fun guys.
• 48:07
  Since you guys chose first, you have to go first. Okay, please
• 48:14
  myself and Dan we are the fun guys, and we are here to pitch
• 48:16
  a new Last of US DLC for the Last of US two that is set
• 48:23
  before the Last of US two, just like the DLC for the first one.
• 48:27
  Okay, and it's going to be interactions between Ellie Dina and the guy
• 48:31
  whose name we forgot, Jesse. It is Jesse, Ellie Dina and Jesse,
• 48:39
  and I think they're going to have stumbled upon a stash of a freezer
• 48:45
  from a farmer's market of perfectly preserved but cheese can get molled on it,
• 48:51
  right, Yeah, she's, she's and they're going to have themselves a fancy
• 48:57
  because they're trying to live like proper young adults now they're in their early twenties.
• 49:00
  They are going to have a fancy wine and cheese night in the apocalypse
• 49:05
  riveting well, you know, it's it's the narrative stuff because while they're having
• 49:09
  their bits and the cheese, I think we all I think we all know
• 49:15
  a group of infectives. After you know, there's some, there's some,
• 49:19
  there's some hotfelt moments between the three of them, the love triangle starts to
• 49:22
  emerge, and then some infective infected burst through this right refrigerator, right right.
• 49:30
  So the premise of this DLC, which we're calling we're calling the Last
• 49:34
  Last of Us two Fromage An, it's all character driven in the first half
• 49:39
  at this wine and cheese party, where you know, lots of bits of
• 49:44
  cheese. But as the infected show up, it turns into a classic fortress
• 49:46
  survival fending off waves of infected with the various instruments. A lot of cheese
• 49:52
  knives, you know, a lot of wine models. It's pretty much a
• 49:58
  lot of improvising fins with the items that you have around you, of course,
• 50:01
  also including duct tape. Plenty of duct tape. I store all my
• 50:07
  cheese with my duct tape. Don't ask. One day you'll find out.
• 50:10
  But that is the whole premise of it, is that you have to hold
• 50:14
  out for as long as you can, well also forging bonds that will last
• 50:19
  possibly short lifetime. Yes, yeah, all right, okay, I like
• 50:22
  it. You use of all three. I'm gonna I'm gonna save scores until
• 50:28
  I hear the shiven bitches pitch adam a possible five. So shivn bitches,
• 50:31
  you guys have again. Ellie butts and continuation, please with your pitch.
• 50:37
  I'm going to say this is a continuation of Ellie's story from the end of
• 50:43
  Last of Us two. Where does she go? What is she doing?
• 50:47
  Is she dreaming about Dina's but maybe it? Maybe? Um but we do
• 50:54
  know, I don't remember what we doature. So and while she's draping about
• 51:04
  Venus, but she starts to come up with an idea. Okay, so
• 51:10
  she looks back and revenge. It's it's old. It's tired, all the
• 51:16
  death, all the killing, she's so sick of it. But she's still
• 51:22
  oh, she's still not on great terms with Abby, right, so,
• 51:25
  even though she's thinking about Venus, but she can't get Abby out of her
• 51:31
  head. But hey, she doesn't want to kill Abby. She maybe just
• 51:36
  wants to embarrass her a little bit. So our gal Ellie goes back on
• 51:42
  the search for Abby, finds a camera along the way, and while she
• 51:51
  finds Abby, she tries to like stay quiet, stay stealthy, um,
• 51:55
  and she stealthily takes pictures of Abbey's but oh as an Abbey is like running
• 52:02
  around doing whatever. Yeah, and she dutate probably and she tries to um
• 52:13
  blackmail Abbey with these pictures. And this because Abby, because Abby has gained
• 52:22
  a lot of respect within the new community that Abby has joined. Abby has
• 52:27
  tons of skills and this would wildly decrease her cloud within her new community.
• 52:34
  Um, and so she needs if if Ellie is going to find Dina.
• 52:38
  She needs Abby's help. Yeah. Um, and so if she's going to
• 52:45
  get Abby, like, drastic measures had to be taken. If she's going
• 52:49
  to get Abby to leave this community for however long, to go on a
• 52:53
  reckless mission to attempt to find Dina. Okay, there was a a time
• 53:00
  limit when I placed this. I'm gonna put a time liver on there.
• 53:01
  You guys will just keep going happening was like and then and then Audre was
• 53:07
  like, oh yeah, I was doc turned into the last of us three.
• 53:15
  Yeah, I really enjoyed. Sorry, what were the words again?
• 53:19
  What were the three Woods Ellie Butts continuation, which Audre said within like the
• 53:23
  first ten signs I do. I am the type of person who when I
• 53:29
  write an essay, I do look at the grading paper. Yeah, and
• 53:32
  I make sure I check all the boxes for yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 53:36
  yeah. I really I really loved both those pitches. Now, the fun
• 53:39
  guys, I did like the unhinged nature of just being in a cheese fridge.
• 53:44
  That was That was interesting. I don't know. The tower defense was
• 53:46
  good. I don't know if you guys really up played the game play aspect
• 53:51
  of it, where Derek was like you gotta stealthily take pictures of splots.
• 53:54
  I know if I want to play a game where I'm taking pictures of people's
• 54:00
  butts in the context of the Last of Us, but it was very unhinged,
• 54:05
  and like I like that. Three points to the fun guys, four
• 54:07
  points to the shiv and bitches. That's fine, that's fine, we'll take
• 54:12
  We'll take three points for us. Stella. This is actually a mobile game
• 54:15
  with a lot of like paid play whatever, you know. Save that for
• 54:20
  the next pitch, because this new word bank, it's gonna be okay,
• 54:25
  Joel Bloodshed goaded with the sauce one that's a phrase, dab oh what you're
• 54:35
  doing? Existential okay? And shroom. Okay, now we're gonna start off
• 54:40
  with the shiv and bitches. I would pick shroom. I was gonna say
• 54:45
  the exact same thing. Fantastic, So shroom is chosen, taking it away
• 54:51
  from Matt big take, big take. It is with the fun guys.
• 54:54
  We want to take have an actually good idea. Yeah, okay, okay,
• 55:01
  okay, Well you're left with his Joel Bloodshed go to with the sauce
• 55:06
  dab and existential? Should we should we take Joel, should we just play?
• 55:08
  I think I think we should get get something safe to start. Yeah,
• 55:12
  okay, shivn bitches. What do you think in Andre? I could
• 55:16
  see you have an idea? No, the only thing I think. I
• 55:20
  just don't want to go to with the sauce because I don't I think I'm
• 55:22
  too old. I don't super fully understand the meaning. What if? What
• 55:28
  if we go for existential we've already got shroom that this does tie into my
• 55:35
  thoughts on shroom. Okay, okay, okay, existential you're working on some
• 55:38
  like microbiology thing over there. I can tell starting the shroom. Oh no,
• 55:44
  we're dan. What should we take next? I think there's one regular
• 55:49
  word words and then two sea? What are we What are we left with?
• 55:51
  Again? Go to with the sauce and dab. I think we've got
• 55:55
  to do bloodshed because I think to get one of these like gen Z terms
• 56:01
  on their so yeah, blood Chaud, I mean I'm gonna pick the one
• 56:08
  that's not okay, that's not very good with the sauce of you, and
• 56:16
  I think I use that right. I don't know enough to know if you
• 56:21
  did well, that sucks because that's what you're left one all right now in
• 56:25
  similar fashion, shivn bitches, you will start off again. Your words are
• 56:29
  shroom existential and dab. I was trying to google goaded with the sauces.
• 56:37
  I think I just made it up so with my idea that I'll start off
• 56:42
  with and then I'll pass it to Derek. That's how the game works.
• 56:45
  UM. I think before UM Joel and Ellie make it too bolder. Where
• 56:52
  the fireflies are? I think that they run into Little Everything's DLC in my
• 56:58
  mind, UM, they run into a group of people because we keep funding
• 57:01
  finding different groups of people. These ones are slavers, these ones are doing
• 57:04
  cannibalistics whatever. UM. The group I think that they run into is the
• 57:09
  shrooms, and they are weaponizing UM infection. They are utilizing shrooms microdosing to
• 57:20
  create bizarkers essentially so that they can really massively slow down the infection if they
• 57:27
  if they delude it with like competing fungus that also has a really strong like
• 57:34
  replication. Right, so they have figured out how to like slow burn a
• 57:40
  court a Sceps infection to have protection. This is really interesting U as Joel
• 57:47
  and Ellie need to pass through their territory. Derek I'm gonna give you sixty
• 57:52
  seconds to get just to get this going along. It's an elevator pitch.
• 57:59
  We are in the Empire, Joel and Ellie as they do, they're like
• 58:02
  scouting things out. They see there's some campfires up ahead. Um, and
• 58:07
  they go and they see that like the people around these campfires, they're all
• 58:13
  like ripped, like intense looking motherfuckers, like just just really like oh yeah,
• 58:19
  like it looks like a bunch of bodybuilders walking around. Um. And
• 58:23
  so they're a little nervous, and Ellie snaps a twig and they hear something
• 58:31
  in the woods and so all of these big hopped up shrim dudes come out
• 58:37
  there and um, and they're like charging him and everything like it's just a
• 58:44
  kid and sub dude. Um and uh. One ripped dudes is like fourteen,
• 58:50
  but he's like six fives. He dabs at him and he gets suck
• 58:53
  man, you want to try somebody shoes. And so they all sit around
• 58:58
  the campfire together, um and exist massive sixty seconds to each member to get
• 59:14
  all three words you can. I don't think I heard existential. I don't
• 59:16
  think he got existentially. After the time, Okay, after the time yeah,
• 59:22
  I'll give it to you just because I added that in Now I didn't
• 59:25
  realize how in depth you guys would get, and I now realize why Matt
• 59:30
  puts the time limits on us. Yeah, I was so intent on like
• 59:34
  explaining the mechanism by with by slow down a thing. Yeah, I didn't
• 59:37
  even get Do not put this into any of your considerations. But the idea
• 59:42
  that that would be existential, like an existential crisis for Ellie as someone who
• 59:46
  did fight an infection on her own, I see, do see that fighting
• 59:52
  being if only you could have communed Ye, if only I assumed within two
• 59:54
  minutes. If only, if only, if only I like the idea that
• 1:00:00
  the first half of your pitch was just a regular day at Ultra's wood.
• 1:00:07
  We can use it was a fascinating tale, is a fascinating tale. However,
• 1:00:12
  I will only take that too many time moving forward, Matt, I
• 1:00:15
  will gauge your time to sixty seconds, and then Dan sixty seconds, and
• 1:00:17
  then you can't give you out. I'm gonna start us off because I've been
• 1:00:22
  formulating a strange little narrative in my head. Okay, our DLC takes place
• 1:00:25
  between the first and second game Okay. Joel and Ellie come across a town
• 1:00:30
  that seems to be a little mysterious from far away. When they get in,
• 1:00:35
  they find out so it's being run by gang of vicious cannibals. Okay,
• 1:00:39
  So in this town there's nothing but bloodshed everywhere, bodies, meat hooks,
• 1:00:45
  houses lined with all sorts of body parts everywhere. It's a horrible scene.
• 1:00:50
  And running that whole group is a master cannibal chef and all the people
• 1:00:55
  worship him, and one he won leadership of the group by showing his culinary
• 1:01:02
  cannibal skills by turning that blood into the most delicious supplement to the meals.
• 1:01:09
  And they they tell him, you're the leader because when you cook, these
• 1:01:14
  bodies were goaded with the sauce. My man, yes, you are a
• 1:01:19
  leader, and we bow to your human culinary skills. Matt, you have
• 1:01:23
  sixty seconds to expand. What are the remaining words that we have? Nothing?
• 1:01:27
  You've hit all noting bring me home. Look, this DLC is gonna
• 1:01:32
  make millions. Obviously, I don't need to tell you anything else about the
• 1:01:36
  narrative of what happens. My my, my colleague, my partner in this
• 1:01:39
  venture. I'll just say, we're seeking ten million dollars for ten percent steak
• 1:01:45
  that you'll get in it. That's what they say on Chopped Interesting what I've
• 1:01:51
  still got hot. Yeah, it's gonna be the best video game DLC ever
• 1:01:57
  because it's only gonna cost it's gonna be five bucks. But there's gonna be
• 1:02:00
  tons of different skins where if you want, you can make Joel DApp see
• 1:02:05
  I'm using other people's I am I would have here, Yeah, and then
• 1:02:10
  yeah, and then truly you will be goaded with the sauce. Yeah,
• 1:02:15
  I really enjoyed that. I mean the heavy lady words in the first thirty
• 1:02:21
  seconds. I'm gonna have to divvy it out as fun guys with five points
• 1:02:23
  there and then I mean, not for nothing, shiving bitches. I'm gonna
• 1:02:27
  give you three right there because it was a compelling beginning. I think I
• 1:02:30
  would have given more points. I also storytelling was present, more sincd Maybe
• 1:02:37
  it's what I would say, but it was a fascinating tale for sure.
• 1:02:39
  Audre's backgrounds being in there just got excited. Yeah, because that's the end
• 1:02:44
  of round two. Oh god, it's a charger. No, that's the
• 1:02:47
  wrong and that's the wrong zombie. There's no charges in this game. Now
• 1:02:51
  there's things like, uh, there's a clicker, yep, there's bloaters,
• 1:02:57
  yep, there's a creeper. Yep, it goes No wait, not that,
• 1:03:00
  no, okay, wrong, I got it wrong again. My bad
• 1:03:02
  this course right now, I love your interpretation of my transitions. I'm really
• 1:03:13
  bad at them, but I like it. I like it this way.
• 1:03:15
  So as of right now, the Shiven bitches are on nine points, but
• 1:03:22
  the fun guys on thirteen. Oh yes, lead, God with the sauce.
• 1:03:28
  That's not right they have I don't know how I did that map wrong.
• 1:03:31
  Eleven, it's thirteen. It's only minus two. Team, we're in
• 1:03:37
  the lead. Still, it's fine. We're winning, Dan, thanks for
• 1:03:39
  that amazing pitch. The ers okay, teams, I'm clearly hungry. That's
• 1:03:46
  what trioms do, you man. Maybe I don't know a drunk guy.
• 1:03:53
  Teams, Let's go to the mall for a cute date full of dad jokes,
• 1:03:57
  arcade cabinet, video games and iconic photobooths. S and oh god,
• 1:04:00
  not again, not that ending again, it's too sad. That's okay,
• 1:04:04
  it's round three, but round three is exciting it's called make some noise.
• 1:04:17
  No, that's the game changer thing. Let's call it noise boys. No,
• 1:04:20
  wait, wait, wait, the sound impression game. It's a deep
• 1:04:24
  cut. Just fucking who's that? Pokemon? I don't care who's that?
• 1:04:28
  Okay, it's gonna make a sound, all right. So this is something
• 1:04:30
  I've invented for this. Okay, very excited about it. Basically, what
• 1:04:33
  this is is one of the best things about the Last of Us is the
• 1:04:38
  audio mixing, right, the sound design. I really wanted to play on
• 1:04:40
  that because we're an audio format where a podcast. So what I've done here
• 1:04:45
  is I will play a noise and then for one for each team. Yeah,
• 1:04:49
  and then you guys will guess what that noise is. I've scored this
• 1:04:53
  out of two Okay. Now, the interesting thing about this is some of
• 1:04:56
  them are pretty basic, so you get the full two points, some get
• 1:05:00
  a niche, and I'll give you one point if you get the overall idea.
• 1:05:02
  But if you really hit it out of the park, I'll give you
• 1:05:04
  that full time again. Okay, you know what I mean? Okay,
• 1:05:06
  yeah, all right, guys, so are you ready for this? I'm
• 1:05:09
  pretty excited. Yeah, Oh damn cool? All right, so we're gonna
• 1:05:14
  start off with the shivn bitches, okay, and your first noise is,
• 1:05:18
  but daddy is a state of mind. You know what I'm saying. I'm
• 1:05:21
  your daddy. I know what this is. I don't know if Derek,
• 1:05:26
  could you hear it? Kind of kind of, it's a little faint Okay,
• 1:05:32
  Audrew knows what this is. You don't have some deliberation to make.
• 1:05:39
  I have no idea. I fully trust my teammate. Thank you. This
• 1:05:44
  is an interview with Pedro Pascal talking about how he plays dad. Roles does
• 1:05:51
  like, how does that feel? Yeah? Because he is not a dad,
• 1:05:56
  right right? Right? Right? Yes, he's like, but daddy's
• 1:05:58
  a state of mind. Daddy's a state of my mind. Yeah, it's
• 1:06:00
  absolutely it's acting. Only a non dad can play a dad that's actual.
• 1:06:03
  Derek, would you agree as a father? All right? All right?
• 1:06:09
  Well you better because that gets you two full points for that accurate description.
• 1:06:13
  Ye, fantastic. All right, fun, guys, here will be your
• 1:06:16
  noise. That was the noise? Yeah, Dan, can you hear that.
• 1:06:24
  I'm gonna need a I'm gonna need a replay please when you find out
• 1:06:30
  what this is you're gonna kick yourself. I know it like it doesn't sound
• 1:06:32
  like I think it sounds like clicking or rattling. But it doesn't sound like
• 1:06:35
  the sound of a cluck. No, it's it sounds like like an item
• 1:06:38
  you pick, like a or like a crafting noise. Oh oh, the
• 1:06:44
  item thing reminded me. It's the flash I think it's the flashlight when the
• 1:06:47
  flashlight on the controller the PS four is it the flashlight sound? Yeah,
• 1:06:54
  I think it does. The flashlight is like out of juice and you have
• 1:06:58
  to give it a rattle. That's It's a good it's excited to keep in
• 1:07:01
  mind the game. But if that's what you guys are locking in, I'm
• 1:07:04
  not going to be able to give it to you. I'm so sorry.
• 1:07:08
  What it is, it's a great idea. Sure these are A lot of
• 1:07:11
  these are Last of Us themed, but not all of them are. What
• 1:07:14
  this is is in the in the Lego video games when you're building in Lego.
• 1:07:20
  How is it? How is this Lost of Us related? I said,
• 1:07:24
  A lot of them are, but some of them aren't. Some of
• 1:07:27
  them just how just knows how many episodes of this podcast have we done?
• 1:07:31
  Yeah? Just noises what some of them are just No, it's fine.
• 1:07:36
  No, I'm kicking. I'm happy to keep on playing the game. I'll
• 1:07:39
  keep on playing the game. I'm officially playing my under protests. Yeah,
• 1:07:45
  has to do with the question have we ever had a question? Except for
• 1:07:49
  the fact the quick fire around the quick fund, but even then connected it's
• 1:07:54
  completely based on the last one. Oh my good. That's okay, Matt,
• 1:07:59
  that's just what we let's just let's just that I'm going to stay performatively
• 1:08:02
  angry. This could be any sound in the history of humanity, so we're
• 1:08:11
  not just pulling from one specific thing. This could be this could be the
• 1:08:14
  sound of this could be the sound of Derek's newborn baby crying all the way
• 1:08:18
  through to nasty cars crashing. I'm not gonna lie to you. I I
• 1:08:23
  thought about putting my own laugh into this shame there it is. I would
• 1:08:28
  have got it straight away, would have been I cannot believe you've done this.
• 1:08:32
  The terror Like when I thought that they were just going to be last
• 1:08:35
  of us, tangential, I was like a little frightened. Yeah, if
• 1:08:39
  it's anything, If I wouldn't have just left in between rounds one and two
• 1:08:45
  to go pee. I would be peeing myself. That's good because you're that's
• 1:08:50
  that's the next sound effect you're about to hear, actually me peeing myself.
• 1:08:56
  That just like different noises. Guys, here's your next noise shifting bitches to
• 1:09:09
  make me real play that's really funny. I like that a lot. I
• 1:09:12
  think you're gonna need to replay it. I'm having so much fun. I
• 1:09:27
  have nothing for this. I think this is a monster in Spiro. I
• 1:09:33
  think I passed that guy on the way home today. Actually, this is
• 1:09:42
  my favorite thing in the whole fucking world. Yours is so funny, already
• 1:09:46
  delved into like episode fifteen Matts after like doing this for fifteen episodes and indulging
• 1:09:51
  in the chaos. Yeah, I'm not gonna be that serious. I'm not
• 1:09:57
  good at this. So this is what it's happening, and it's really fun
• 1:10:00
  for me at least. Any idea, Derek, I don't know, Maybe
• 1:10:04
  like a voice with some kind of like quick speed, a recorded voice that's
• 1:10:11
  sped up really fast or something. Uh huh, are you guys locking in
• 1:10:15
  anything? I mean, we'll lock that in because it's probably just as likely,
• 1:10:18
  if not more likely. I would agree with that. I would agree
• 1:10:21
  with that because it's not that I revealed to YouTube specifically. In my personal
• 1:10:27
  life, I got really addicted to goat noises and he goats can sound sometimes
• 1:10:31
  that was a goat. Yeah, isn't that crazy? That's why I'm obsessed.
• 1:10:35
  I love this scene in the Last of Us towards the end where Joel
• 1:10:38
  Anellie or at that cathotic moment. Sorry, that was when that's the rat
• 1:10:44
  King. Sorry to make it them back to Last of Us. That's that's
• 1:10:46
  racking. Okay, how about that? Okay, it's not though it's not.
• 1:10:51
  That's not what the raking sounds like. Do you know that I played
• 1:10:55
  the game, so that was a goat sound? That was But how was
• 1:11:00
  the goat? How is the sauce game for that Goat's how that works?
• 1:11:05
  Different goats, different goats. Just trying you know, yeah, yeah,
• 1:11:08
  ye, all right, before you play this clip this this sound is a
• 1:11:12
  person. There we go. That's what I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say
• 1:11:15
  it's a person and hope that that's good enough. Not from the Last of
• 1:11:20
  Us. Let's see if you get at least one point, because again I
• 1:11:23
  said specificity, right, here's your sound. Did you hear that? Dan?
• 1:11:30
  Not really, but I'm not sure it's going to make too much of
• 1:11:32
  a difference. Can you play it one more time? Yeah, I can't
• 1:11:36
  believe I'm engaging with this. This is great. I love this. That
• 1:11:42
  is a robot character laughing. That is the sound of a bird flying into
• 1:11:45
  a window from my Canada's got a wild I'm gonna keep you guys one point
• 1:11:53
  for that. What because it is a sound of Transformers transforming in the nineteen
• 1:11:57
  eighty four cartoon, which is a very iconic sound fan Sorry, Yeah,
• 1:12:01
  okay, a robot is enough. It was a robotic thing. I knew
• 1:12:04
  you'd try and get Transformers in something. Yeah, baby Gate Leapers twenty four
• 1:12:12
  that I'm still just so angry. That's okay, I'm livid. That's okay,
• 1:12:15
  because it's not your turn. We'll get back to you, shiving bitches.
• 1:12:19
  Here's your sound. I know this one. This is the turtle having
• 1:12:32
  sex having sex. That's two points. Finding out so many things about my
• 1:12:41
  best friend and my wife, it was like a viral video. Also,
• 1:12:45
  I forgot about this for listeners. When me and Audra first started becoming friends,
• 1:12:50
  we also found out that our YouTube searchage history is very tangentially similar.
• 1:12:57
  Yeah, there were some parallel live Yeah yeah, at the time, I
• 1:13:00
  forgot about that until now. Yeah. I love it. In Last of
• 1:13:03
  Us two, when there's a load of turtles and they bang and they go
• 1:13:10
  there we go clip that. There's a little text tone for you, not
• 1:13:14
  for me. I want to stay on this podcast, Matt. If you
• 1:13:20
  don't get the sound, I'm gonna be personally upset. Okay, so fun
• 1:13:24
  guys, here's your next sound. Gotta get the whole of wh Did you
• 1:13:38
  hear it? Dan? I got nothing. Do you know that nothing is
• 1:13:41
  in you heard it and you don't know or you know? I mean I
• 1:13:43
  heard nothing, and I'm sure I probably have nothing as well. Sorry.
• 1:13:47
  So it's the startup noise for either the PlayStation one or the PlayStation two.
• 1:13:54
  Oh if I could hear it, I could probably tell you which one it
• 1:13:57
  was. All right, Dan, Here it is again, Dan, I
• 1:14:13
  hear nothing. I didn't pick up that. I think it's the microphones are
• 1:14:16
  too good. I think they just I think they cut out sound that isn't
• 1:14:20
  voices. It's a technical marvel. No, I got nothing. Okay,
• 1:14:32
  I'll make it with my with my mouth. I mean that they'll be yet
• 1:14:38
  to hit in in post for the listeners. But uh yeah, well we
• 1:14:42
  can compare this game right now. Um, and then it sounds like sparkles.
• 1:14:48
  I'm leaning more PS two. I'm leaning more PS two. Okay,
• 1:14:54
  I trust you fully. Yeah, I think I'm wrong, but I'm leaning.
• 1:14:59
  I'm leaning PS I think for that. Yeah, you get two points
• 1:15:02
  right there because it is the PS two. Okay. There are three PlayStations
• 1:15:06
  that have the Last of Us playable on it. When you could have linked
• 1:15:09
  it to the hand. You could have chosen the PS three, the PS
• 1:15:14
  four or the PS five. Are you saying that the Last of Us wasn't
• 1:15:16
  on PS two? No, unless there's a prequel, I'm gonna wire.
• 1:15:19
  Maybe that's what it rings a power that's that was the cheese Party one was
• 1:15:23
  on PS two exclusively the graphics of the cheese All right, shivn bitches.
• 1:15:30
  I'm excited for these last two because they get very specific, not that these
• 1:15:33
  other lots were shiving bitches. Here's your sound. This is related to the
• 1:15:50
  Last of Us, Matt, you idiot after six THEO which one was the
• 1:15:59
  first? Yeah, Petrofascal, No, you had an idea at the start,
• 1:16:04
  play it for me again. Derek is not going to hear it.
• 1:16:09
  Count fucking hey. No. If Derek could hear this too, he'd be
• 1:16:24
  really good at it, which is really unfortunate. That's pretty unfortunate. This
• 1:16:30
  is related to okay, related to the Last of Us because it's Crash Bandicoot.
• 1:16:42
  It is a villain in Crash Bandicoot, which is made by Naughty Dog.
• 1:16:46
  Actually, or it's just crashed Dying. It's somebody dying in it's in
• 1:16:51
  Crash Bandicoot. That's where I'm going with And Derek, you didn't hear it
• 1:16:55
  at all, not one bit, I say, luck, yes, Unfortunately,
• 1:17:02
  I can't reward any points for that one. What it is is it's
• 1:17:05
  the Joker's laugh as played by Troy Baker, specifically so as Troy Yeah,
• 1:17:14
  as he emulates Mark Hamill's Yeah, that would have been good. If Derek
• 1:17:16
  could hear it, I reckon, yeah, so you would have probably gotten
• 1:17:19
  the least Joker's laugh. Unfortunate. I mean, had asked me, I
• 1:17:25
  would have told you that was definitely Troy Baker pretending to be Mark Hamill,
• 1:17:29
  so you could hear it, right, of course, got it? This
• 1:17:34
  one is gonna make Matt mad and I know that. Well that's okay,
• 1:17:39
  and that's okay, and that's okay. Fun guys, here's your sound.
• 1:17:46
  It sounded like a hug squealing at the end. It is Last of Us
• 1:17:53
  related. Oh, this one's actually last of Us related. This one.
• 1:17:56
  I told you it would be. Okay, I don't know what you're talking
• 1:17:58
  about. The guy who wrote the game, his cousin had a cat that
• 1:18:01
  made that sound, so right, Okay. I mean I'm luck almost happy
• 1:18:09
  to go play it one more time just because if it is last was related,
• 1:18:12
  okay, I mean it could be a clicker like it genuinely could be
• 1:18:18
  a clicker based on the sound it. The last part sounded a bit more
• 1:18:24
  like a squeal. I'm just here for for emotional support. Yeah, if
• 1:18:29
  it's a clicker, because I did specify specific specificity, Sure which clicker?
• 1:18:34
  Okay, So I'm saying it's definitely a cliquer and it's the first clicker they
• 1:18:39
  encounter in the museum type place that they're in. Is this isn't a clicker
• 1:18:45
  and you asked him which specific clicker it was. I will also be mad
• 1:18:51
  at it's to count people. Yeah, Yeah, it's one of those guys.
• 1:18:59
  Yeah, how many I got you. No, it's Jeffrey the clicker.
• 1:19:02
  It is a clicker. I'll give you one point for that. It's
• 1:19:05
  a clicker that appears in the cartoon TV show The Amazing World of Gumball when
• 1:19:12
  they reference it one time. All Right, I saw it on YouTube and
• 1:19:15
  I was like, yep, that's too that's too niche for Matt. So
• 1:19:17
  one point for the clicker. That is one point for the clicker. With
• 1:19:20
  this horrible round, I think it's gonna be really great to listen to it,
• 1:19:26
  to be like, oh, it's like on a lot of trivia games
• 1:19:30
  where you're like, oh my god, the answers this, it's just gonna
• 1:19:35
  be that. But we're pushing the envelope here on gate Leapers. Yeah,
• 1:19:40
  and uh, that's how we're gonna start off season three, you know what
• 1:19:43
  I mean, pushing the envelope. Maybe we should keep it closed. I'll
• 1:19:49
  be back for season four, that's all I'm gonna say. Maybe. All
• 1:19:57
  right, that's the end of round three. I had a transition for this,
• 1:20:00
  but it's not great. Okay, I'm just reading now, Derek and
• 1:20:05
  I wouldn't be able to hear it. That is a tough one. Man,
• 1:20:10
  That is a tough one. We'll have to figure that out, but
• 1:20:13
  so far, that's all right. Sorry. The best thing you've done in
• 1:20:15
  terms of being an antagonistic host here, sorry to delay the final round.
• 1:20:19
  The best thing you've done is created a difficult editing job for me. That's
• 1:20:26
  gonna be a nightmare to edit. Happy to do it, Glad you put
• 1:20:29
  the effort in. But that is more antagonizing than anything else. I wanted
• 1:20:34
  to try something new and I knew it would be tough. I'm gonna make
• 1:20:38
  it out for season two of the HBO show justin Tom. Yes, but
• 1:20:44
  Matt likes SEO too much. Guys, all right, so that's exciting because
• 1:20:50
  the quick fire round is going to be even worse for you. Okay,
• 1:20:57
  I will fight you with one. Are the skulls that's the next Oh that's
• 1:21:00
  the yeah. Sorry. The scores. The current scores are the fun guys
• 1:21:02
  are on seventeen points, shivin bitches, not too far off at fifteen points.
• 1:21:09
  All right. We held our lead despite everything. Okay, we've gonna
• 1:21:13
  we've got two points two points in it. Yeah, quick fire around,
• 1:21:17
  I mean, that's that that could be attained, you know, yeah,
• 1:21:21
  you know, it could all change and the quick fire around it could all
• 1:21:25
  change. And uh, as always the star part, I don't have any
• 1:21:30
  transitions for that. Okay about prizes, Yeah, yeah, I just want
• 1:21:32
  to talk about prizes. The prize is listen. It's the concept of Pride,
• 1:21:39
  and what I've learned about the fandom, primarily from you, Matt,
• 1:21:42
  is that the fandom has not reacted to Pride super well, which is absurd
• 1:21:46
  considering the timeline of like, uh this the DLC Left Behind that was really
• 1:21:53
  six years prior to the Last of US two, which is like two game
• 1:21:58
  cycles essentially, and then we're still in cells after the second one came out
• 1:22:01
  that were like she's gay, she's gay, but then Bill was gay and
• 1:22:05
  then it's like, oh, what is it? But also like for so
• 1:22:08
  much of the show she was a minor. It's like why does it matter?
• 1:22:12
  And just Pride, why does it matter to you? And it's just
• 1:22:15
  like, ah, Pride, just so thank you for for all those different
• 1:22:18
  little Pride characters in the Last of US I think it's nice. Yeah,
• 1:22:20
  do you have an idea how many hours I spent laying a bed at nights,
• 1:22:25
  Derek, and see like thinking about these fictional video game characters and they're
• 1:22:29
  yeah, right now, it's a slippery slow Thanks. Thanks for using the
• 1:22:40
  accents so that we could tell it's not your real opinions. Eric, Yeah,
• 1:22:44
  yeah, but that's the that's always the concept pride, that's always on
• 1:22:46
  the table. We know that. But there's a real price here. Okay,
• 1:22:49
  it's a voice verse nft uh. That's not a real price. I'm
• 1:22:55
  not even gonna go along with that bit. But a little bit of background
• 1:22:57
  because I I researched this, okay, and it's in fearing So Voice First
• 1:23:00
  NFT first. Off, U NFTs are dumb, they're dying out. But
• 1:23:04
  Voice First was a website that advertised specifically like voices as an nft uh,
• 1:23:13
  that you can sound like anyone else's quotation marked on their fucking thing. And
• 1:23:16
  I, Dan, you may or may not know about this, because you've
• 1:23:18
  done fucking ton of research on NFTs. It sounds very similar to a project.
• 1:23:21
  It's yeah, it sounds it sounds like something we were planning to do
• 1:23:27
  as a joke. But somebody decided, right, here's here's the thing,
• 1:23:30
  here's the thing on their white paper link, which I don't know what the
• 1:23:33
  fuck that means. But on their white paper link of this website, it
• 1:23:38
  says, are you a fifty year old man, but are into anime cultures?
• 1:23:41
  So you want to sound like a cute anime girl? This was on
• 1:23:45
  their white people link, was what you're It's just fucking odd man that it's
• 1:23:53
  on their website, and it's like, not only are they endorsing, but
• 1:23:57
  they're like encouraging and want internet catfishing. And they say it countless times that
• 1:24:02
  the voice is unique, but then they're like, just fucking get different person's
• 1:24:06
  voice. The reason that this is in here is because Troy Baker very briefly
• 1:24:12
  advertised himself on this. He took it off very briefly afterwards as well,
• 1:24:17
  And I'm not gonna chastise him too much about that. It's just a rich
• 1:24:20
  person thing. Yeah you will, that's fantastic, but it's just the thing
• 1:24:24
  that existed, and that's crazy to me. So the prize is knowing a
• 1:24:28
  little bit of nugget, a little nugget of information to be able to pick
• 1:24:30
  on Troy Baker a bit more. Wait till I see him. Oh man,
• 1:24:36
  you're gonna RaSE his ass. Oh yeah, yeah, it's just bad,
• 1:24:42
  right, it just sucks. Yeah, definitely. I remember him getting
• 1:24:45
  into bed with NFTs and that being a bright scandal about a year ago.
• 1:24:50
  M Was it so that people could sound like Troy Baker? I think so.
• 1:24:54
  I think that was the stick. Yeah. No, that sounds like
• 1:24:59
  too much eff sound like Trump. You just do a Southern accent or something
• 1:25:03
  like that. I don't take yourself very seriously. You don't want to make
• 1:25:05
  Ashley Johnson cry for art or for any reason at all. Yeah, there
• 1:25:12
  we go. That's brutal. Uh. Well, on that note to the
• 1:25:15
  quick fire round. Yeah, yeah, let's let's go ahead and just look
• 1:25:18
  into each other's eyes and tell each other deep, horrifying lies so that we
• 1:25:21
  feel better about ourselves at the end. That's what Joel does, doesn't he.
• 1:25:25
  Yeah, kind of great. Anyways, a quick fire round. This
• 1:25:36
  one's called Bottle or Brick? Nice? Are you team Bottle? Are you
• 1:25:43
  team Brick? That's a little meme I found from the from the Last of
• 1:25:46
  Us fandom, So that was cool. I was always I don't speak for
• 1:25:49
  anyone else, but I was always team Bottle because they make a good sound
• 1:25:53
  as well. Well. After my experience sitting through the last round. I'm
• 1:25:57
  also a team bottle dan is taking a lovely drink for a non Patreon subscribers
• 1:26:03
  who can not see the video right now. Yeah, you can see the
• 1:26:06
  video if you're on our Patreon the promo at the end. Now, it's
• 1:26:11
  fine. In Yeah, it was just a it's a weird little thing where
• 1:26:14
  you get to choose between two melee items and it doesn't really matter because I
• 1:26:16
  think they more or less do the same thing, right, But people get
• 1:26:18
  really pedantical reddit and that's really funny. Yeah, anyways, that's going to
• 1:26:24
  be more explanation than this game. I'm simply going to say a thing and
• 1:26:27
  then you two teams will just say bottle or brick. That's it. Okay,
• 1:26:32
  is there a correct answer? Is this an argument based thing? There
• 1:26:35
  is a correct answer? Okay, but I will simply just say the thing.
• 1:26:39
  You will simply just say bottle or brick. Is it back and forth
• 1:26:43
  or first to buzz in? Uh? First to buzz in. Let's stup
• 1:26:47
  back and forth? Okay, okay, okay, stop back and forth?
• 1:26:50
  Okay, No, I like you. Yeah, it's like the weakest link
• 1:26:55
  where it's just like your team yeah, just because if you buzz in,
• 1:26:58
  if someone says it's the wrong thing, then you'll just buzzing with the right
• 1:27:00
  exactly. Yeah, So it's a it's a it's here and there. Okay,
• 1:27:03
  back, all right, back, let's start off with the shivn bitches,
• 1:27:06
  the ones who are currently behind your first word is beer, bottle,
• 1:27:12
  bottle, noise buoye on brick, nice reddish brown brick, Nice, open
• 1:27:28
  bottle bottle, nice a glue brick, nice tapatillo bottle. Yeah, okay,
• 1:27:42
  yeah, we have it in our fridge. Tang orange bottle. Nice.
• 1:27:51
  Okay, now callous hands brick break nice lickable bottle, bottle? Are
• 1:28:05
  you scoring this? This is the most I love how abstract this is.
• 1:28:09
  This feels like a game to decide what ri IQ's. It's like pattern recognition.
• 1:28:15
  I love it. Keratin is a key material and nails, hands,
• 1:28:18
  feathers, hoofs, and horns. Is this ours? Yes? I wasn't
• 1:28:24
  expecting so many words. Uh, it's in nails and hooves and hands.
• 1:28:29
  Could it also be in bricks or should we just play it safe and say
• 1:28:31
  bottle. There's a safe option. I don't know what's happening. Bottle or
• 1:28:39
  brick or bottle not one. Oh shit, now ships at the Gnolls chemical
• 1:28:50
  formula is C two H six oh bottle bottle, nice and quick before the
• 1:29:01
  buzzer. There's no quick. Okay, there's no quick about this gate leapers
• 1:29:08
  probably probably bottle, right, I would assume bottle bottle. There's bottles on
• 1:29:15
  the table right now. Okay? Was that the quick? I forgot,
• 1:29:25
  say quick before the buzzer, and I was like, there's nothing quick about
• 1:29:27
  this fascinating mental game bottle or brick. There were genuine correct answers. There
• 1:29:36
  was genuine correct answers. Now most of you guys did get it. Okay.
• 1:29:40
  Idea that whatever word it was was generally associated with uh, the item
• 1:29:45
  bottle or brick. The other thing is each letter for bottle brick spelled out
• 1:29:49
  bottle or brick, so alo is exclusively in brick. Thus it was brick.
• 1:29:56
  Ck also followed that. Okay, game, It was also a word
• 1:30:01
  game, but that was like well hidden in there. There was a key
• 1:30:03
  as well at the Nala's alcohol. Yeah, that's why I want bottle.
• 1:30:09
  Carraton is hard, Carton is hot, so it's fantastic. So I really
• 1:30:20
  love this. Before we get to the final scores. I'd like to thank
• 1:30:24
  our players. You've all been a fantastic romantic interest whose communication style resembles that
• 1:30:29
  of like an abusive nineteen forties couple, but in the context of Last of
• 1:30:32
  Us, you're awesome. Sure, that's right, right, for sure,
• 1:30:39
  that's Joel and Tess, and then Riley and Ellie are better with it.
• 1:30:45
  They don't get enough time. They don't get enough time. But there there's
• 1:30:47
  just a lot of like people are always like, how are you feeling?
• 1:30:51
  And then one person just goes, you want to go outside today? Like
• 1:30:55
  they don't ever fucking respond anyways, thank you so much, and and Derek,
• 1:31:00
  uh, this is my first time hosting. This was kind of a
• 1:31:01
  mess of an episode. I loved every second of it, and thank you
• 1:31:05
  so much for flexing with us as well. It was a block Matt,
• 1:31:10
  you can you're gonna duct tape this thing together? Slowly? Oh yeah,
• 1:31:15
  really gonna duct tape this together. I'm gonna need you guys to send me
• 1:31:18
  some rolls, I think. And then Dan also we mentioned it a little
• 1:31:24
  bit before, but also do you want to get more in depth on the
• 1:31:26
  thing that you are sure? Sure? I'll plug both my podcasts. I'll
• 1:31:30
  do the easy one first. I am. I'm the co host of a
• 1:31:32
  comedy podcast called The Fucking A that's fuc k I n e h. Like
• 1:31:36
  US Canadians, A me and my buddy Matt. We bring a collection of
• 1:31:41
  stories every week and we tell each other those stories and we have a good
• 1:31:44
  time. So it's not it's not me, it's not this Matt. Another
• 1:31:48

  Simpsons episode if I recall? Right, So check that one out and yeah,
• 1:31:59
  but this one comes out my new podcast hard no k I now is
• 1:32:03
  that second word, will be will be out. It's sort of a narrative
• 1:32:06
  docu series. Uh, it's it's pretty much an exploration of sort of like
• 1:32:11
  deceit and lies and scams and con men and all that. And it's sort
• 1:32:15
  of told through a scripted narrative style. It's time episodes along. Each one
• 1:32:18
  is a dive into a different sort of form of deception and all that.
• 1:32:21
  It's really creative, it's really different, really out there. Uh, it's
• 1:32:27
  a big swing at something. That's that if you tell people it's a podcast,
• 1:32:30

  told in an interesting way. So yeah, just please listen to it.
