  [Music] welcome to multiple

  nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and
• 0:07
  Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All
• 0:13
  Things nerdy I have a correction to make to
• 0:18
  last week's podcast a correction from you let's hear it doesn't happen often
• 0:23
  but I was actually remember I was talking about how much in shock I was
• 0:26
  about Alan Wake and how much it was going to be mhm mhm I'm incorrectly said
• 0:31
  $40 and I was wondering why you weren't sort of wow about that I got it wrong
• 0:36
  it's actually $30 okay that's great like I mean to be honest I was pretty
• 0:40
  impressed with $40 I mean I've bought it already I feel if you've bought a game
• 0:43
  in the past you should just get it for free uh it depends with me depends if
• 0:49
  they've done anything with it true there are times where they do like a they just
• 0:53
  release the game again yeah yeah no I want they've done work on this so I
• 0:59
  think they've earned my $30 30 bucks that's great cuz it's a fantastic game
• 1:06
  and you were saying all original music back in this they've sorted out all the
• 1:09
  all the LIC they sorted that out ages ago cuz it went off sale from the Xbox
• 1:14
  360 stores because of Licensing and then they got it all sorted and it's been
• 1:18
  back on the 360 store for a while now is there still a designated 360 store yes
• 1:24
  oh wow the reason why there's a still 360 store is with the Xbox one and one
• 1:30
  series X they're bit interchangeable so it's all the same but 360 you can only
• 1:35
  still play 360 games yes that's right and I still go to that store every now
• 1:39
  and again well I love that there's certain amount of 360 games that still
• 1:43
  pop up on um Game Pass well that's the thing like the only time I have to go to
• 1:48
  the 360 store now is for games that aren't backwards compatible which there
• 1:52
  aren't many anymore and yeah you are seeing them on Game Pass and the store
• 1:57
  and everything else so I really regret
• 2:01
  or maybe now is the time to look into whether Kung Fu Chaos is playable again
• 2:07
  because that was one of the best games on the original Xbox and then as soon as
• 2:12
  the 360 came out it was like forget about it it probably is playable but
• 2:18
  it's couch Co-op I know back in the time well we used to have a lot of free time
• 2:24
  to actually be in the same room and just play games we can't even work out a time
• 2:28
  to play together we don't have to be in the same room yeah I know Matt even
• 2:32
  tried to get something happening this week that we shot down really quickly oh
• 2:35
  Matt's not here by the way oh yeah yeah Matt yeah you know in his holiday home
• 2:41
  yeah in his bare cabin but yeah he tried we shot that down very quickly because I
• 2:46
  was never going to play the game no and I tried to play we're talking about
• 2:49
  valheim by the way which is a very good game um except it ran like absolute [ __ ]
• 2:54
  so was never going to run on a Surface Pro all right fair enough not much run
• 2:59
  on that surface Pro it's the Surface Pro is designed for work Netflix didn't run
• 3:04
  very well on the Surface Pro let me let me put that out
• 3:08
  there yeah you you that's not what you needed I'm using my MacBook for 90% of
• 3:15
  my stuff now and it was only because it is a work Macbook so I was wary at first
• 3:19
  to use it and then they sent me to a seminar which laid out exactly what I
• 3:23
  was and wasn't allowed to use it for and I feel that all my daily use pretty much
• 3:27
  fits into that category a porn yeah that's pretty much the only thing that
• 3:32
  you can't do yeah porn and Espionage are the things they kindly asked you to
• 3:37
  avoid doing on your if you can yeah and you've tried your best you can with the
• 3:43
  Espionage but the porn that's right I'm trying to combine my love of porn and
• 3:47
  Espionage together but I still haven't come up with the uh the perfect solution for that
• 3:53
  yet so what has been happening we're actually recording at a weird time
• 3:57
  during the day we're all both of us are completely awake we're awake
• 4:03
  more yeah aw I'm quite awake because I
• 4:07
  slept last night from 7: to 10: then
• 4:11
  again from 2: till 6: and then again
• 4:15
  from 9 till about 1 so so how long to the
• 4:20
  baby doesn't have to be looked after every 3 how it depends who you ask if
• 4:26
  you ask Matt he's like oh [ __ ] three more weeks mate cuz he's for some reason
• 4:30
  got a very very well behaved child um I've been told by 6 months I should be
• 4:35
  perfectly safe okay but there's other problems by then too by then you you got
• 4:39
  to watch them constantly throughout the day and you can't put them down anywhere
• 4:43
  no no you you can't you have to watch them constantly now no I could put it
• 4:47
  down and walk away and know it'll still be the same place get anywhere yeah
• 4:50
  providing I've swaddled it substantially I know that's out loaded
• 4:55
  the roll pretty quickly so just make sure you've got it in a cage of some
• 4:58
  sort yeah today actually I was holding her this morning and she just full and
• 5:02
  lifted ahead to look at me which is the first time she's ever done that just
• 5:05
  like on her own lifted ahead no you're just using neck muscles alone
• 5:10
  and I was like oh wow okay it really doesn't take them long and then they
• 5:15
  slow down again yeah yeah there's like this really big you need to do
• 5:20
  everything for them and then they start getting up talking walking and then you
• 5:24
  still need to clean them up and yeah then for about another few more years
• 5:28
  but they can walk around tell you that they need to be cleaned up instead of
• 5:32
  just yelling at you yeah that's right me just having to preempt it yeah Y is this
• 5:36
  scream for [ __ ] or food yeah that's right end do I need to look at that's
• 5:40
  the lovely thing about a newborn is that there's really only a few things that
• 5:44
  can be wrong with it yeah when there's not it's when you're really scratching
• 5:47
  your head you like not yeah yeah which I've got to get a little tube and suck
• 5:52
  it out of your nose yep like I'm your [ __ ]
• 5:56
  slave you are that child slave for for the next I don't know I don't know they
• 6:01
  say 18 years but it's really not 18 years you going to pay for it for a lot
• 6:06
  longer these days that's true but i' stopped listening to what my parents
• 6:09
  were telling me from a lot earlier than 18 yeah but you still expected money
• 6:14
  that is true and like housing food food every day yeah that's true entertainment
• 6:20
  clothing yeah just just don't talk to me though stay out of my
• 6:25
  room yeah I'm wondering how long it'll take before the stay out of my room sign
• 6:29
  and my sister she's got kids that are like six and nine or something around that age and
• 6:35
  um uh her daughter has a don't come in my room sign on her door now so that's
• 6:41
  more directed at you you can't make that
• 6:48
  joke that didn't come across the way I me all kids have that sign on their door
• 6:54
  for you Dan I never had that sign of my room I don't think I did either no but I do
• 7:01
  know that is a bit of a staple with kids like stay out and yeah oh no to be fair
• 7:06
  come to think of it I didn't want my siblings in my room I didn't care if my
• 7:09
  parents came in but I but mostly because I didn't want to talk to my siblings cuz
• 7:12
  I was so much younger than me and I just found them annoying my sister was the
• 7:15
  same age pretty much and I found her annoying I don't think that's an age
• 7:19
  thing yeah that's true I was happy for your sister to come in my room Zing
• 7:24
  sorry you right into that
• 7:28
  one she as well oh
• 7:32
  god um yours is a bit more appropriate well not appropriate but yeah I mean
• 7:37
  it's less let's let's move off both these topics shall we so I finished a
• 7:44
  game this week that evidently is getting review bombed for a reason and I was a
• 7:49
  bit confused by it okay so this is a game that I am probably going to play
• 7:53
  because I've played the subsequent games at least some of them I I think I'm
• 7:57
  still quite a bit behind in terms of where I'm up to
• 8:00
  but we're talking about life is strange which is a wonderful little I've always
• 8:05
  I've Loved all the life is strange games and they re-releasing them again for the
• 8:08
  series X at the end of the month looking forward to playing through I might wait
• 8:13
  then and play through from the start for the listeners who don't know do you want
• 8:15
  to just give a little bit of a rundown of of what they could expect life is
• 8:18
  strange the first one you play an angsty teenage girl who finds out she's got the
• 8:24
  power to control time MH so sort of just go backwards and forwards not a long way
• 8:31
  and stuff happens in her town and she helps investigate and find out what's
• 8:35
  going on mhm and it's very lowkey you're kind of just wandering around it's it's
• 8:39
  like a point and click really yeah like there's there's no rush to get it done
• 8:44
  there's there's there's some thought involved with it with some of the
• 8:47
  puzzles but not a lot but the tone is very profound it's it's just a lovely
• 8:52
  game to play the second one I wasn't a
• 8:55
  super fan of mhm the second one was uh 's now an Angy teenage
• 9:02
  boy just doesn't relate yeah as the listeners know you're a you're a video game
• 9:08
  transexual no but what happened with this with the second one you it was your
• 9:12
  younger brother that had the powers and your father gets killed at the start of
• 9:17
  the game and you go on the run with your younger brother because they think you
• 9:21
  did it this whole thing could have been avoided with just staying where you are
• 9:25
  and explaining what happened yeah that's right yeah telling the police the truth
• 9:30
  yeah like honestly that went on a bit long then he meets up with his mother
• 9:36
  and it's a little bit too high fantasy because if you're a little if you're a
• 9:39
  teenage boy with time travel Powers then you just use that power to reverse time
• 9:45
  to just before you ejaculated and then ejaculate again and then just keep he do
• 9:49
  have the power to move time now that's the thing all the powers have always
• 9:53
  been different M mhm so in the second one the power was you could sort of move
• 9:57
  things okay with your mind yeah true colors is the most recent one that come
• 10:02
  out and when they started talking about this I thought this sounds stupid she
• 10:07
  has the power of empathy what kind of power she just a
• 10:12
  very nice person no what it is is when people when you start playing it it
• 10:18
  becomes a bit clearer when people are having a strong emotion either way like
• 10:21
  whether it's angry or sad or she can sense that get a reading on them and if
• 10:27
  people go too far as in the very first episode Take On The Rage of someone that
• 10:32
  is beating up her brother and they completely beat the [ __ ] out of him
• 10:36
  wow and yeah she she really loses it and it's about her sort of you sort of touch
• 10:41
  on her past and her growing up in sort of foster homes and stuff that's a
• 10:45
  frustrating Powers I have and then it's her about sort of learning to deal with
• 10:49
  it and then also investigating the only thing I didn't
• 10:53
  like about is The Game's everything's just too perfect in this world yeah like
• 10:58
  you just rock up and town after being in foster homes and everyone loves you and
• 11:01
  everyone's really nice and it's just too perfect I felt that was kind
• 11:07
  of the point of the earlier games too with that you're still an angsty teen
• 11:12
  but you're an angsty teen in a world where it's okay to be an angsty teen
• 11:15
  yeah you know it's a bit of wish fulfillment on the part of the devs I
• 11:19
  think who might have had some troubles growing up at that time in the next one
• 11:23
  maybe do the Angy teen stuff but actually understand that the world's not perfect yeah
• 11:30
  consequences yeah well the Reon being review bombed it's not because of the
• 11:36
  game it's because of a a flag that was
• 11:41
  in the game okay a Nazi flag is it no
• 11:46
  it's just the Tibetan flag oh okay so let me guess it's China it's China
• 11:51
  That's review bombing uh review bombing it but it wasn't like it was a major
• 11:55
  part of the game or anything it was just I don't even I don't even remember
• 12:00
  seeing it oh they would have noticed they they would have
• 12:04
  noticed really but it's not like I mean it was out of context right it's not
• 12:08
  like there was a big sign above it that says definitely not part of China the
• 12:12
  way I see because I haven't gone back to have a look it's just the flag in the
• 12:17
  window of a shop or something yeah but according to the Chinese the the fact
• 12:21
  that there is a Tibetan flag and not just would the Chinese flag yeah it
• 12:25
  would be supporting Tibet and being separate from China like it's in America
• 12:30
  they got that flag they're against us yeah that's right which was really I
• 12:35
  thought they'd be trying to R bomb it for sort of the fact that my character
• 12:39
  Alex you can decide whether you're straight or gay or
• 12:44
  between my character was gay you you you are not only are you a video game
• 12:49
  transexual you a video game lesbian as well yes I'm a lesbian in real life yeah
• 12:54
  yeah elizan trapped in a man's body yeah I just find it strange that they go for
• 12:59
  the review B well they might be review buming both yeah maybe I I guess think
• 13:04
  it's a lot of people who haven't played the game because honestly like the flag
• 13:09
  would have to be just something small in a shop window it's not like you would be
• 13:12
  playing a game that plays a major part or there's a free type bet to protest in
• 13:17
  the middle of the game and as I always say like you could reasonably assume
• 13:21
  that only the character who put that flag up is pro Tibet and everyone else
• 13:26
  in the game [ __ ] hates them you know what I mean like just could I always say
• 13:30
  this when people say a certain book or film is racist because there's a racist
• 13:33
  character and it's like no no no you can write a racist character without your
• 13:37
  book being racist yes you know especially if they're the bad guy yeah
• 13:42
  if they're the hero yeah then maybe you might have a bit but even then not so
• 13:46
  much like American History X the main character is a racist and the whole
• 13:49
  point um what's that the New Zealand movie it's the same the one that came
• 13:53
  out last year with the little boy Warriors no no no the um the comedy with
• 13:58
  the little little boy who's a Hitler supporter like oh yes uh JoJo rabbit
• 14:04
  yeah that's right main character is a racist but the point of the movie is
• 14:08
  that racism is bad and just because there's a racist in there doesn't mean
• 14:12
  your film is racist with stuff like that like yes you could have the hero be be
• 14:16
  that racist but they need to learn yeah yeah like that that needs to be part of
• 14:21
  the story say you have a racist character they the hero that life is
• 14:26
  strange would be all right if directly after the Tibetan flag in the window
• 14:30
  that shopkeeper was dragged out by the Chinese secret police and beaten in the
• 14:34
  streets no I don't think they want that either I think they want American police
• 14:39
  to drag them out and beat them sure cuz it's not China get involved with no
• 14:43
  that's true and in fact the chinaese I mean Hong Kong you can have that
• 14:48
  argument whether Hong Kong's part of China or not but Hong Kong have the
• 14:51
  biggest film industry in Collective China um but often have to make
• 14:56
  alternative endings for Mainland release um the very famous one is infernal
• 15:02
  Affairs which is what the Departed was a remake of um which is about cops
• 15:07
  backstabbing other cops and uh if you watch it in mainland China in the end
• 15:12
  they're like guys you know what we've been doing this all wrong we should
• 15:15
  really just support the the system here and uh confess that we've
• 15:20
  been yeah so the only yeah they just come clean and yeah they they just turn
• 15:25
  themselves in yeah yeah as most that's the right thing to do yeah yeah
• 15:32
  yeah so review bombing I mean what does review bombing do I I've never quite
• 15:36
  understood the effect that this has so I've never understood especially because
• 15:41
  I think on Steam they now just if you don't own the game it doesn't have any
• 15:47
  effect on the mostly positive or mostly negative so I don't think it actually
• 15:51
  leads and then they switch it off anyway yeah yeah but you see it all the time at
• 15:56
  the moment there's the new God of War mhm being review bombed is it cuz there
• 16:02
  just a trailer for it oh I think one of the things I've seen I haven't looked
• 16:07
  into it too much cuz it's a Playstation only game but there've there's video of
• 16:12
  him getting into a canoe or something and theyve pointed out that's the same
• 16:17
  way he did it in the last game so you're just reusing assets it's like that
• 16:21
  that's what games do yeah this is a sequel to the same game sequel but it's
• 16:26
  a spin-off yeah instead of us sort of spending the next I don't know 3 months
• 16:31
  working on how he gets in the canoe how about we just use how he got in last
• 16:35
  time because how many different way got get in a canoe let's not waste time
• 16:40
  we've got the we've got the funny way where he tries to get it and he falls
• 16:43
  out and like what do you want like I don't know that to me just means that
• 16:48
  you get the game earlier watch any Disney movie and anytime you see a
• 16:53
  character dancing it's the same Dance Beauty dancing with Beast is the exact
• 16:58
  same [ __ ] wireframe as Cinderella dancing with Prince Charming I think
• 17:03
  that may change now maybe I reckon it I when was the last time you really
• 17:08
  watched one though I haven't watched one cuz I don't remember the big ball
• 17:12
  ballroom scene in what was the last Disney movie I saw what was the last Disney movie you
• 17:18
  saw um probably black widow okay I really mean the animated
• 17:25
  movies is what I'm talking about I actually have no idea what the last
• 17:28
  Disney what I would have seen would be did you see Coco No oh that was
• 17:32
  excellent was there a ballroom scene in it though no then I'm guessing they
• 17:36
  didn't use the save dead suit fair enough um but that's what you do it
• 17:41
  saves money in time hey speaking of speaking of computer generated films
• 17:47
  it's a tenuous link but I just I don't have much to say about it but it came
• 17:51
  out soury Weaver came out and said she's seen bits of the new
• 17:56
  Avatar and when asked if it was good her response was well there's a lot of it set
• 18:03
  underwater so not only do I not give a [ __ ] that James James Avatar James
• 18:09
  Cameron is making more Avatar films but I also don't give a [ __ ] that he's
• 18:13
  making another underwater film I think it's more of he's just
• 18:18
  trying to make it he's he's he's got he got all the money and everyone signed
• 18:22
  off and then he's going to start filming he's gone we've already seen most of the
• 18:26
  planet yeah um oh no what we do underwater I haven't seen that true
• 18:31
  we've been in the sky and we've been on the ground what else is
• 18:34
  there well even remember any original movie he goes off to see all the other
• 18:38
  clans he does yeah they really milk it didn't they see the planet already oh
• 18:44
  man and now there's a special underwater race of avatars or nari isn't it nari uh I don't
• 18:51
  know I tried to watch it a second time and was so bored and I hate 3D but this
• 18:57
  movie not in 3D is boring oh I I went through it a few times at the movies
• 19:03
  just not for the movie for the 3D like it was 3D done well yes yes possibly the
• 19:08
  only time that has been the case yeah because after that they tried to bring
• 19:13
  everything out in 3D and none of the other movies were made for 3D like with
• 19:19
  that like even when they're just walking around the forest and you see like the
• 19:21
  bits of just air with dust particles
• 19:25
  pretty much you see that that's that was my favorite was when even when they were
• 19:30
  in the offices and they're just panning past those kind of perspects monitors
• 19:36
  just that the depth that they created is just something they've never been able
• 19:39
  to do in any other 3D film like the only time I've actually liked was when we
• 19:42
  went saw Guardians of the Galaxy and it was in that 40 like with the chairs and
• 19:47
  the spray like that still needs some work yeah but that was fun to be honest
• 19:51
  the actual 3D the stereoscopic image was the least memorable thing about that
• 19:57
  experience the chairs move yeah the chair moving was [ __ ] rad
• 20:01
  cuz it wasn't just a oh it's going to shake down we're going to follow the
• 20:04
  ship yeah like this it wasn't just always I'm not sure the chair stopped
• 20:08
  moving the entire time because at the end of the film when the lights came up
• 20:12
  and I was still I felt very still but yeah I don't think it was I think it's
• 20:18
  just because that's how good they see in together cuz I believe this is years ago
• 20:23
  they wouldn't do like the 4D or whatever version of it for like a few weeks after
• 20:28
  the movie came out so they could sink all that stuff up
• 20:32
  and when was that that was when we were in America York 2016 five years ago
• 20:38
  since since New York wow and that's probably oh no I saw solo
• 20:43
  last time I was in LA as well have you been in La you've been in
• 20:48
  America since our New York trip uh yes cuz I went for E3 few years ago oh you
• 20:55
  did too that you did too where you had your conversation with um Kevin Smith
• 20:59
  on Hollywood Babylon yes he lied to him
• 21:03
  about feing koalas he [ __ ] ate it up though he his life is enriched believing
• 21:10
  that fing yeah got this koala that mean we're buddies
• 21:16
  yeah that's great very quickly some followup from uh from last week uh we
• 21:23
  did talk about a lord of the ring 31 dis box set um and we kind of all mused who
• 21:30
  who would want a 31 disc boxed set um
• 21:33
  only people with $1,500 is the answer what there's not a what else does
• 21:40
  it come with I I'll tell you what it comes with and it comes with quite a lot
• 21:43
  to be honest but still there's not a lot of films I love and I there's some films
• 21:47
  I [ __ ] love but there's not a lot of films I would spend 1,500 bucks on a
• 21:54
  special edition so this comes with a 100 page sketch Style book replica the Red
• 22:00
  Book of West Mar the original film sketch's new artwork something reprinted
• 22:05
  that will cost less than [ __ ] book yeah yeah no I like books as well but
• 22:09
  you know yeah but um original reproductions of watercolor paintings by
• 22:13
  a claim conceptual artist okay again print a poster yeah and I like art as
• 22:18
  well but still okay all discs housed in six stunning throw leather books and
• 22:24
  collectible Hobbit style wood shelf okay you get a little shelf shelf you get a
• 22:28
  little shelf but this is not $11,000 worth of wood no and it's it's not real
• 22:34
  leather no no okay so it looks like there's a little bookshelf with some
• 22:39
  nice leather bound books on it but actually the leather bound books are dis
• 22:44
  holders and one of them's a book that's 1,500
• 22:51
  bucks no no thanks no no pass oh hold on
• 22:57
  but evidently there's a cheaper one oh okay how how much is the cheap that's
• 23:01
  like the collector's edition okay all right so this is the fancy one but
• 23:05
  there's still a the regular uh no it's still
• 23:11
  250 okay okay 250 and that's us so that's probably $400 Australian yeah but
• 23:16
  that's just the discs [ __ ] hell so they are really charging for the book
• 23:23
  the bookshelf and the cases they're charging $1,300 that is a lot of [ __ ] money for a
• 23:30
  bookshelf people give me a th000 bucks I'll build you that bookshelf yeah yeah
• 23:36
  yeah m i I'll make it pretty much look exactly like that cuz this is not a
• 23:39
  sophisticated looking bookshelf NE I Reon I could do this yeah I mean there's
• 23:43
  a little bit of ornateness on the side but I re you're not getting that part
• 23:47
  yeah yeah it's a th000 bucks Australian yeah that's right not us yeah so it's
• 23:51
  about 700 bucks us and you can get an approximation of this particular case
• 23:56
  you get Luke version of it it might look like something you can get at
• 24:00
  Ikea it might it might not it might look at off cuts that I've got from stuff
• 24:06
  I've purchased from Ikea in the past that I'm trying to get rid of yeah you
• 24:10
  shouldn't have off Cuts Luke from Ikea things pretty sure you meant to use
• 24:14
  every piece ah sometimes it's just you just don't want that extra shelf or that
• 24:19
  extra bit you just knock it out done that on computer desks where had
• 24:23
  remember old built-in like bookshelves and computer desk and you just got just
• 24:27
  knock that part right there's always one shelf for you're like why is this here
• 24:31
  why I don't need that bit so yeah but yeah it's 1,000 blocks do you remember
• 24:35
  when every computer Des had a little slide out tray that your keyboard went
• 24:39
  on who ever used that [ __ ] hated that because how would you have to sit to far
• 24:45
  enough back that you needed
• 24:48
  to extend extrude your desk did you also
• 24:53
  used to have uh the the the the keyboard condom
• 24:59
  that's the only way I know I used I didn't have it but I know what you're
• 25:03
  talking about my parents had it and I never understood it because that thing
• 25:08
  was filthy and S of like it could get rid of that and it could still be filthy
• 25:14
  dead skin and F nails and dust yeah that's right cuz it'll be under the keys
• 25:20
  now all you've done is you've kept everything top yeah and now I'm just
• 25:24
  touching it yes and you can get that little suction thing that sucks that
• 25:28
  [ __ ] out of your keyboard if you really care but yeah I that people made a
• 25:33
  fortune off that that plastic keyboard thing that goes over the top that yeah
• 25:38
  made your keyboard even less sanitary yeah yeah I mean keyboards used
• 25:44
  to be deep they're not as deep unless you like the oldy keyboards I do I've
• 25:49
  got my mechanical one up there yeah I'm sure you do yeah I've thought about
• 25:52
  having one except that I use my laptop keyboard as the keyboard CU otherwise
• 25:58
  well why would you get a keyboard to put on top of a keyboard that's just stupid
• 26:01
  exactly which is why I don't I'd like a fancy keyboard but we need a fancy
• 26:06
  computer yeah but then I can't would you like a fancy computer I can't sit in bed
• 26:10
  with my fancy are you offering me a fancy computer I might have a fancy
• 26:13
  computer so does this mean you have finally migrated over to your new
• 26:17
  computer no that one's sitting over there still my
• 26:21
  God I so want to be that with your free time I get caught up playing games like
• 26:27
  life strange True Colors imagine how well these games will play I mean I know
• 26:32
  you're playing play on the Xbox I'm just using the computer to watch television
• 26:37
  yeah mhm and the football is it football season it's just
• 26:43
  about over South Sydney has either one or two more games in the year okay we
• 26:50
  find out next week I have completely ignored the NRL this this season
• 26:55
  completely ignor it's been great I when I was living overseas I felt so
• 27:00
  nostalgic for Australian football and now that I'm home I mean I've got other
• 27:04
  [ __ ] I've had other [ __ ] going on this year yeah baby gets in the way Stu yeah
• 27:09
  if they put the football on at between midnight and 2: a.m. that' be great I'd
• 27:15
  watch that in fact I should be watching some American Sports is probably if you
• 27:18
  get KO oh yeah you can just play it whenever you want yeah right okay yeah
• 27:23
  of course so you just put the football on at midnight yeah yeah yeah except I
• 27:27
  could have looked up the schore by then so but yeah you have to not do that
• 27:32
  that's the hard part mhm but it's also sometimes you see the score and you go
• 27:37
  oh I definitely want to watch that yeah yeah yeah and other times you go there's
• 27:41
  no point in me watching those those are the best games where you already know
• 27:44
  the score and you're still like how is that possible I've got to watch this
• 27:47
  game yep there's a game that you've been playing that I've been wanting to play
• 27:51
  for a while and I want to know well I assume it's not Wolfenstein New Order
• 27:55
  which I've been playing a little bit Yeah so I've been playing two G in
• 27:58
  Tangent because sometimes I'm wide awake and I want something to really think
• 28:01
  about and sometimes I just yeah that's right so my just
• 28:06
  shooting game is Wolfenstein New Order which is great it's not new it's 5 years
• 28:09
  old 2016 but uh it's excellent um I'll just quick review for anyone who doesn't
• 28:16
  know the Nazis won the war it's said in the' 60s it sounding very man in the
• 28:21
  High Castle and I guess it is um in terms of I think that's where they got
• 28:25
  the idea from in terms of high concept you still play um
• 28:28
  [ __ ] BJ burwitz or whatever his name is from the original
• 28:34
  1993 Wolfenstein um and I love all the little Throwbacks the weapons are the
• 28:40
  same there's still the shotgun the chain gun the you know like but just all
• 28:44
  updated a little bit there still there there's still secret passages behind
• 28:49
  paintings and there's jewels in there that you can collect love it love it but
• 28:52
  the story is really in depth and I [ __ ] somebody the other night and I
• 28:56
  was like I was not expecting a sex scene in this there were no sex scenes in the
• 29:01
  original Wolfenstein would you like a little spoiler yes you knocked her up
• 29:06
  hey all right okay twins okay nice they come out in well
• 29:11
  they don't come out they're in the last game which is very very different in
• 29:16
  tone in what way um the last game is you
• 29:21
  don't you playing the daughters oh really and it's a co-op game so you can
• 29:26
  revive the other one and you to level up
• 29:29
  your skills and literal Co-op yeah oh let's [ __ ] play that let you know
• 29:36
  what I'm no no no good no no damn no it's yeah I I've played through it twice
• 29:41
  well got to the end twice did you play though no maybe that's the
• 29:47
  key I don't think that's it yeah fair you have superpowers and you can go
• 29:52
  invisible see I'm already annoyed that there's a certain amount of
• 29:57
  like highness yes exactly I want to
• 30:00
  shoot Nazis not robot Nazi dogs it is funny when the robot dog
• 30:07
  robot robot Nazi dog jumps on top of you you get to stab it though like when he
• 30:11
  stabbing in the head I know it is brutal and I violent I don't want to kill
• 30:16
  animals at any point even vicious ones that are attacking me I'm sorry I'm
• 30:20
  killing a Nazi robot attacking me we're attributing these Nazi traits to it
• 30:25
  because the Nazis have put the [ __ ] robot on it but for all I know this dog is usually a
• 30:32
  pacifist the dog's coming at me it's gone now no I know I just I don't like
• 30:37
  it I don't like it but the other one I own this game twice okay no I'm
• 30:42
  I'm talking about the sinking City game you play cuz I own this game twice cuz
• 30:47
  there's achievements for Xbox series X and Xbox One they re-released it
• 30:52
  actually I'm not sure if that's might be one of these weird ones
• 30:56
  cuz the publisher the developable for this got into a bit of a fight with a
• 31:01
  lot of their Publishers is that right for what reason um just with I think
• 31:07
  what happened with frogwares it happened with uh the Sherlock Holmes games yeah
• 31:13
  um they they got into a fight with their publisher because the publisher wouldn't
• 31:17
  give them keys or logins or something after the publishing deal ended right
• 31:22
  and they ended up re-releasing the Sherlock Holm games like Sherlock Holmes
• 31:25
  Redux so they could start making money off it again while the other one went off the store
• 31:31
  like and they now they've now gone on to frogware is now just develops and
• 31:37
  publishes their own stuff because they've had a few issues and I think
• 31:40
  this one might be a bit the same why they've got the two versions yeah but I
• 31:44
  own it twice okay I haven't played it at all so I did I buy
• 31:51
  this it'll work on both yeah cuz I was going to say I'm fairly certain I bought
• 31:55
  this when it was when I just had the previous so it'll still work on both
• 31:59
  yeah you know I well I have been playing it on my series X but yep so there's not
• 32:04
  I don't think there a series X version okay right it's just I think there's
• 32:07
  another version of it yes I see okay uh good so I'm not missing out look this is
• 32:11
  a very enjoyable game I wouldn't necessarily call this a good game
• 32:18
  mhm it's clunky the the combat is
• 32:22
  incredibly unsatisfying right which is the case with a lot of RPG you know what
• 32:28
  I mean combat is is a second priority to the to the story
• 32:34
  story I I enjoy the way that so you're a detective you're a private detective
• 32:41
  you're you're you've landed in this city which is a love crafty it is sinking
• 32:46
  well it's flooding I don't know that it's necessarily sinking but half of
• 32:49
  it's underwater you can walk some get spoiler it's sinking just a feeling yeah
• 32:54
  maybe maybe I think it's a metaphor oh I
• 32:58
  do them but um the way that this works
• 33:03
  this holds your hand absolutely 0% right so there's I mean there's different
• 33:08
  difficulty levels and you can put you can put the easiest difficulty level
• 33:11
  which tells you when there's Clues around and stuff but if you're playing it even just on
• 33:16
  normal um it doesn't tell you when there's Clues and it doesn't tell you
• 33:20
  what the clues mean and you've got to do that yourself and you could get it wrong
• 33:25
  and still continue down that track so what it is if you find a bunch of Clues
• 33:30
  you've got to then go into your thought chamber and Link the C the clues and
• 33:35
  then make assumptions about that and then you can progress in the game based
• 33:40
  on those assumptions which may be right or wrong and you'll never know because
• 33:43
  you'll just get a different outcome it's exactly the same as the Sherlock Holmes
• 33:47
  games oh really okay you there's multiple sort of different endings you
• 33:51
  get to each of the cases doesn't matter if you get them right or wrong progress
• 33:55
  you wouldn't know if you got it wrong really I could Dem this man to death had
• 33:59
  nothing to do with it yeah so I only realized that was the case in this when
• 34:02
  the very very first mission you're trying to find the the killer of this
• 34:05
  man's son and I I went and did a bit of an uh investigation to be honest cuz I
• 34:11
  was first playing I didn't do it as in depth as I'm now doing everything very
• 34:15
  very in depth but I kind of just did a surface in investigation I was like yeah
• 34:19
  he's guilty went back and told the guy and he's like right well I'm going to
• 34:22
  [ __ ] shoot him in the head and he was killed and uh and then I went online and
• 34:27
  I was like is that always happen no no no it doesn't it doesn't actually if you
• 34:30
  look a little bit deeper you can find out that um there do like a little bit
• 34:33
  of police work yeah which when I realize that you have to pretty much you have to
• 34:38
  look at 100% of the clues before you uh make just condemn a man that's right so
• 34:44
  the way I'm going to eventually play this game should have a walk through
• 34:48
  yeah yeah to could except that you'd have to have a walk through for one
• 34:53
  specific playthrough but then I guess there's always that proper playthrough right
• 34:58
  yeah so what I've actually started doing with games is I've started to not worry
• 35:02
  about the achievements as much oh really and not play through with a a guide or
• 35:08
  anything and I'm just like I'm going to play through this start the finish and
• 35:11
  then I'll worry about mopping up the it's very easy with the full motion
• 35:15
  video games mopping up cuz a lot of those games have been
• 35:20
  coming out recently they're a bit easier cuz you play through you get your ending
• 35:25
  you go yep that's the story I would have gotten and then go through and then you
• 35:28
  can skip like Siege of seene and just go through and get the other ending when
• 35:32
  you say for motion video games you mean games like that the ones where you got
• 35:36
  to interview people and [ __ ] what am I talking about oh are you talking about
• 35:40
  the shape-shifting detective is that what I'm talking about maybe is that
• 35:44
  what you're talking about that what a game that I have played that is like
• 35:48
  that oh that was terrible hold on I'll tell you what exact like Talk Amongst
• 35:52
  yourself while I open while I open Steam there's a few there's something with the
• 35:57
  word
• 36:07
  [Music]
• 36:58
  yeah like the telling lies one it's got real actors yeah telling lies has great
• 37:03
  actors there's one uh po Maro something that that's just like a student project
• 37:10
  like the acting is that bad yeah I I still always think about Night Trap when
• 37:16
  I think about these type of games I so wish I had have finished making that on
• 37:20
  the Xbox I know right I could play it on
• 37:24
  the PlayStation but not the Xbox yeah right
• 37:31
  right up until the day it was coming out they said yep it's coming and then
• 37:35
  they've said nothing since I don't know if there's a whole
• 37:39
  lot of people asking for this me there's yeah there's about a hundred guys
• 37:43
  exactly our age who were like wasn't there a full motion video game back in
• 37:47
  the 90s where you just were perving on a bunch of chicks having a sleepover and
• 37:51
  then the game yeah cuz yeah the game isn't about the chicks
• 37:58
  but do you know the vampire originally the game was much more gory there were
• 38:01
  vampires but then whoever until Hasbro got involved yeah Hasbro were like no
• 38:05
  you can't you can't have replicatable violence no so yeah you got to make him
• 38:10
  kooky and just garbage absolutely garbage but it's Stars the lead girl is
• 38:16
  the girl from Different Strokes the sister from Different Strokes who ended
• 38:20
  up I think in prison and then killing herself very sad she had have she didn't
• 38:26
  have a great time after Different Strokes Welcome to our comedy podcast but she's
• 38:30
  in it and she's I don't understand it's on the Nintendo switch is
• 38:36
  it fun on the switch imagine sitting on the train looking over and someone's
• 38:40
  playing [ __ ] night trap on the
• 38:45
  switch I want to read no I'll read about it later they built a set for Night Trap
• 38:50
  right and the doors didn't reach the floor so if you playing Night Trap look
• 38:55
  at them when they go from room to room there's like that there's like 6 in of
• 39:00
  wall under each door that they have to step over it's very clearly not a real
• 39:06
  house well yeah because how did they get these traps where it's like the floor
• 39:11
  opens up like y that NS just got this crap installed the game wasn't meant to
• 39:18
  make sense no well actually I think originally it was but that the the
• 39:21
  barriers that were put up they were like [ __ ] it just whatever it's whatever it
• 39:25
  is nearly got all games canceled ever well it got banned completely here in Australia I
• 39:31
  believe um well this was also the big one that was went to Congress and
• 39:36
  everything in America with the like this is game's terrible look what's doing for
• 39:40
  all the people coming out and speaking out against it who never played it oh
• 39:43
  yeah no one cuz no one played it they would have been better off picking a game anyone
• 39:49
  played but no cuz you can't spin it yeah yeah you can spin it if you can say this
• 39:55
  is what's in it but these vampires suck your soul out of your
• 39:59
  brain they yeah they weren't actually vampires at the end yeah they and in
• 40:03
  fact I don't even think they use the word vampires anymore no but um I think
• 40:07
  that's why they got off by saying there's no way a child could play this
• 40:11
  and then replicate this type of violence in the real world well I think it was
• 40:15
  also it was the the people thinking about it was just like naked women
• 40:19
  running around as well which wasn't there we like to think it was but it no
• 40:24
  it really wasn't this is very unsexy and it's it's slow as all [ __ ] as
• 40:30
  well oh one day I will get to play this game yeah
• 40:34
  yeah um so sink City I do recommend look
• 40:38
  it's open world but nothing is playable so you will walk past hundreds of people
• 40:44
  that you can't speak to and hundreds of doors you can't go in you can only go
• 40:49
  indoors that are the doors you're meant to go in so it it feels if it's built
• 40:55
  with a with an open world engine but it is completely on Rails what I think this
• 40:59
  is is this is them building up to their next game M mhm so they've done a few of
• 41:04
  the Sherlock holes games and then they've done a few games like this as
• 41:08
  well and then next game coming out I think it's later this year is a new
• 41:11
  Sherlock Holmes game that's sort of completely original okay so new story
• 41:16
  it's you playing like a younger Sherlock Holmes and I think it's a bit more open
• 41:20
  world so yeah right okay and it's episode one comes out I think they're
• 41:23
  doing episodic thing okay okay I don't mind episodic yeah it's like life is
• 41:28
  strange mhm well the good thing about life strange this time is all came out
• 41:32
  in one go but I still played it over I got annoyed when Hitman decided to go
• 41:37
  um episodic to be honest with you mostly cuz I couldn't keep up with what id
• 41:41
  played and what I hadn't played but yeah did you actually play did you actually
• 41:45
  even finish episode one man I yeah I did and i' I've played all the Hitman games
• 41:49
  I [ __ ] love Hitman Hitman is the game check
• 41:53
  this what did you did you play it on Xbox
• 41:58
  yeah you want to check I did I [ __ ] finished it I check I'm checking I'm I'm
• 42:03
  sure I did so the new Hitman the new wait from what year are we talking three
• 42:10
  years ago three years ago yeah yeah yeah episode one
• 42:15
  Yes actually got to look at you well you talk I'll I'll look you up and we'll get
• 42:20
  to the bottom of it this fighting words man well cuz if you played so much of it
• 42:26
  you would have got a chiie sink and not necessarily sink and city um is is
• 42:32
  Lovecraft which I love and the world is beautiful and the characters are
• 42:36
  excellent and they Ste but they also they steal a lot um from the Lovecraft
• 42:42
  methos but then just reuse it so I was walking down the street and I saw this
• 42:46
  doctor's office that said Herbert West MD and if you know the Lovecraft stories
• 42:52
  you know that's Herbert West Herbert West reanimator right and you're like oh
• 42:55
  it's reanimator it's Herbert West yeah that's great every [ __ ] Street has a
• 42:59
  doctor's clinic on it and it's always Herbert West MD so it's like this is
• 43:06
  almost like this game should have cost 10 times as much but they didn't have
• 43:10
  the budget for it but instead of just scaling it down they just kept it the
• 43:13
  size they wanted but then just didn't make it as complicated as I I I have an
• 43:18
  apology to make oh do you now um I just
• 43:23
  looked at uh Hitman and it's uh got the hours played mhm yeah so I've played it
• 43:30
  for 32 minutes yep and you've played it for 24 hours yes thank you I do have to
• 43:36
  call you out on one thing though okay didn't finish it no no no well not that
• 43:42
  you didn't finish it but there's an achievement I think you should have
• 43:45
  gotten if you were so good at hit there no hold on I didn't say I was good at it
• 43:49
  I said I enjoyed playing it unseen assassin assassinate a Target without
• 43:55
  getting spotted how do you not have that getting spotted [ __ ] once man come
• 44:01
  on no just say one target without being to be to be fair the first the first
• 44:07
  episode is only like four missions right
• 44:09
  yeah one you 24 hours and couldn't kill
• 44:15
  one person without someone spotting you that's like the only achievement I have
• 44:20
  the um the older versions are very good at that the these these new ones are
• 44:26
  difficult they're more difficult than the older ones cuz I remember some of
• 44:28
  the older ones like you just walked in dressed as a chef poisoned the food and
• 44:32
  walked out this this does not have that these are [ __ ] and there's multiple
• 44:38
  targets per mission in this one too yes and you couldn't kill one being seen no
• 44:43
  no hold on I could kill one without being seen but there's multiple targets
• 44:48
  assassinate a Target without getting spotted you could not get into one of
• 44:53
  them without some there's one where I'm telling you yeah no you're there's one
• 45:00
  Mission I'm thinking about where you've got a guy tied up but I do take out the
• 45:04
  guard but he probably sees me before I before I shoot him yeah yeah so that
• 45:11
  I've got no you're right I don't care if the guy I kill sees me first I only care
• 45:15
  if other people see me I've got pacified an individual and assassinated a Target
• 45:19
  without getting spotted they're the only two achievements I have in it I'm pretty
• 45:23
  sure I have pacify an individual too surely you've got pacify an individual
• 45:27
  okay good by shooting them in the face most yeah that's right most um I didn't
• 45:32
  even complete the prologue all right I'm not a Hitman fan
• 45:37
  man love Hitman yeah no no but I love the slow this it's kind of how I try to
• 45:40
  I try to play Wolfenstein like Hitman just sneak in no that that's it's a hard
• 45:45
  it's hard sometimes hard to play wolfen because you go in with it I'm going to
• 45:48
  go slow and I'm going to hide and be stealthy no you just got to run around
• 45:52
  and shoot yeah that's right and that's where the fun is anyway there are a few
• 45:56
  parts of the game where stealth does come in but for the most part just
• 46:00
  ymo shoot what I love about Hitman is sometimes you can really just get lucky
• 46:05
  you know what I mean I mean there in not in this one but in the previous one
• 46:08
  there's one where if you just follow the dude long enough he'll just go and stand
• 46:13
  on the edge of a cliff you know what I mean and you'll just push him
• 46:20
  yeah you got to get out too that's that's half the challenge with Hitman
• 46:25
  you don't just you don't just shoot a guy and then goes you win you've then
• 46:28
  got to leave no the whole undetected the whole thing like the whole you meant to
• 46:32
  just watch and especially with the different people in different times you
• 46:37
  got to watch them all work out their schedules they're going to be here at
• 46:40
  this time and then if I do this yeah and if you follow some of their I mean you
• 46:44
  could do whatever you want but if they've also got some pretty extravagant
• 46:48
  setups as well so if you there's one where you um it isn't the newest one
• 46:52
  where you you knock out and then impersonate a news aner who's there to
• 46:58
  do a news report but then you also rig the place where he's going to stand to
• 47:03
  be wet on the ground and his microphone cord that he's holding and he gets you
• 47:07
  know and then when they when they hit record on the camera he gets electrocut
• 47:11
  like it's [ __ ] it feels great once it all works out but you have to play just
• 47:16
  sort of over and over and over to get the hang of it and work out where it's
• 47:19
  all going to it's not for me yeah yeah just shoot him in the face and leave oh
• 47:24
  now I want to play more which is evidently what you do yeah cuz you're always
• 47:28
  spotted that's yeah yeah yeah and I just shoot everyone and then turn it off
• 47:35
  yep I've been watching some movies this week because um I as I said I've been on
• 47:41
  a very radic schedule and like just in the middle of the night I've got some
• 47:45
  time I'll pop on a movie um so I like Star Wars is good for that yeah look I
• 47:51
  I'm having this this dilemma right now of whether to watch movies I've seen and
• 47:55
  like or to just use this opport to see new movies I wouldn't have otherwise
• 47:59
  watched which brings me to this point right it's a new segment that I'd like
• 48:03
  to call I watch M Night shyamalan's new movie so that you don't have
• 48:09
  to um I wasn't going to anyway I assume you weren't I assume none of the
• 48:14
  listeners were he's got a new movie coming out called Old which looked to me
• 48:18
  like his worst concept yet right mhm people go remember the last movie I've
• 48:24
  seen of his was signs okay comparatively
• 48:28
  not that bad very very boring right for
• 48:32
  an alien in coup of exciting bits two very exciting bits one quite scary bit
• 48:38
  and then just garbage um and like Signs and all these other movies there's a big
• 48:43
  scene where ight himself plays a whole
• 48:46
  character but um this premise of this is
• 48:51
  three families go down to a beach mhm
• 48:54
  and the children get old they start to
• 48:59
  age and they've got to work out why they're getting
• 49:03
  old before they die now are they
• 49:08
  maturing or they just like a 5ye old no they're maturing they're maturing so
• 49:13
  they're thinking more adult thoughts uh Etc right okay but the
• 49:20
  adults aren't aging as rapidly as the kids
• 49:24
  yeah um there's no twist they do tell you what
• 49:30
  happened but there isn't a Twist per se
• 49:35
  um but this movie is so terrible like I
• 49:41
  can this is like the script of a high school kid writing his firstt fund his
• 49:47
  own movies now or something there's no or he's just got such enough clout on
• 49:53
  his name alone that there must be some studio going
• 49:57
  bring us a movie every 5 years don't make it cost any more than $10 million
• 50:03
  and we'll just let you have it cuz it makes it makes it back and we all get a
• 50:07
  nice paycheck and we get to go on holidays or wherever why not yeah cuz I
• 50:11
  know that Woody Allen I know it's not cool to like Woody Allen and everyone
• 50:14
  dumped him now but Sony Pictures had a deal with Woody Allen every year we'll
• 50:19
  give you a million dollar to do whatever you want we won't look at the script we
• 50:23
  won't we won't make any notes I did the same with Adam Sandler
• 50:27
  varying degrees of success I'm sure same as Woody yeah well I think he's still
• 50:32
  going yeah well Adam Sandler didn't touch any children so that's I mean in
• 50:36
  Hollywood that's the key to a longevity at the moment yeah it's not hard just
• 50:41
  don't touch them when you want to touch them don't don't yeah yeah oh look
• 50:47
  alleged alleged jewry's out actually jewy wasn't out jury acquitted Woody but
• 50:54
  there's certainly a lot of evidence that points directions but that's that's not
• 50:58
  for this podcast our comedy podcast old is terrible it's
• 51:02
  [ __ ] terrible so skip it man I
• 51:06
  honestly don't know why this is even a movie the premise isn't enough the last
• 51:13
  two hours this this is like Phantom Menace
• 51:17
  level script maybe it been better as maybe just like an outer limits episode
• 51:23
  cut it down to an hour exactly exactly Rod Sterling comes out of the start and
• 51:28
  goes wouldn't it be crazy if you aged your whole life in just 24 hours and
• 51:32
  then we see what that looks like for 22 minutes and then it it's ending and you
• 51:36
  go wow that was really profound mhm done
• 51:40
  yes yes exactly right um [ __ ] aw see I should be in Hollywood yeah well
• 51:46
  they'll probably steal that idea now so yeah they do listen they do listen um
• 51:51
  that was bad I saw three really good movies though and I'll just rattle these
• 51:55
  off really quick um last week I mentioned that I was watching the early films of den
• 52:02
  villain there's no need to get that name pronounced correctly with me yeah I'm
• 52:06
  sure sure I still wrong um the the guy
• 52:10
  the guy from June right Dennis yeah um he made a film 10ish years ago called
• 52:17
  enemy that I hadn't seen before where Jake gyllenhal finds a dude who looks
• 52:24
  exactly like him it's very good very good
• 52:30
  however don't watch it if you want them to explain what happens in the
• 52:35
  end oh so it's like a Christopher Nolan movie this one makes Christopher Nolan
• 52:40
  look like he's tied everything all up in NE package really yes yes is that is it
• 52:46
  mayy you just switched it off at like 15 minutes early evidently I went on the
• 52:51
  internet to try and find like enemy blined and there's some good theories
• 52:58
  some very good theories but there's no definitive Theory and you shouldn't have
• 53:01
  to go to the internet to find out a theory to end of a movie yeah but not
• 53:05
  only that apparently the actors in the film had to sign um waivers to say they will
• 53:11
  never say what it's about that's stupid yeah but very well done stop
• 53:18
  letting these people make movies very tense very well very well
• 53:22
  crafted the great thing about denil is that if you watch his films in order
• 53:26
  which which I absolutely haven't I'm going all over the place but you can
• 53:29
  really see how he defined his voice over the years y um it's a joy to watch he's
• 53:35
  he's fast becoming one of my favorite directors he's no Ed garite he is no Ed
• 53:41
  garite but edar is not always an Ed but I will say this one night in sohoo looks
• 53:44
  very good yes he needs to get past baby
• 53:48
  driver oh yeah that I don't yeah I don't know yeah don't know what he was
• 53:54
  thinking there Matt loves it so we obviously hit a cord with Matt it's not
• 53:58
  a bad movie it's just not what I want from him yeah I want fun yeah it was so
• 54:04
  up its own ass too man I just couldn't I couldn't deal with how important that
• 54:09
  movie seemed to feel that it was yeah no I want go back to making fun yeah more
• 54:16
  cornettos yeah yeah um another movie I watch also starting Jake gyllenhal which
• 54:22
  was in no way fun but was absolutely terrific was the guil
• 54:27
  which is set entirely in a 911 call
• 54:30
  center and it's about one operator played by Jake Gyllenhaal taking calls
• 54:36
  on one specific case throughout the course of a night and is excellent they
• 54:41
  do explain it in the end so if if you're thinking about just some tense crime
• 54:46
  Thriller where everything does get wrapped up this is a good one
• 54:52
  okay no no probably not for you Matt if you're listening Maybe Fe
• 54:57
  it last one I saw Scottish movie James makoy for the first time I think ever
• 55:04
  doing his own accent in a movie right it's called he's been allowed it's
• 55:09
  called my son which is not a very good name for a movie but I think they just
• 55:13
  did a search to see what phrase was used the most throughout the script and they
• 55:17
  just picked that right um but the premise behind this movie is Guy son
• 55:23
  gets kidnapped he's looking for his son right but but I think I've seen stuff
• 55:27
  about this yeah so if you've seen anything it's probably the conceit which
• 55:31
  I actually didn't know H explained this to me afterwards all the other actors
• 55:36
  except for James McAvoy were given the script and had rehearsal time on the day
• 55:42
  they brought James makoy the lead character in and just said react and
• 55:47
  we'll film it mhm yep that's what I've heard that yeah he just just he all his
• 55:52
  stuff was just all improv yeah so he had no idea what was going on he just love
• 55:56
  for just to throw some weird [ __ ] in there I know right
• 56:01
  yeah yeah like it's all about to be yes Ed so I'm going to react like this I'm
• 56:06
  going to get my dick out now what are you going to do about it I was wondering
• 56:10
  where you were going to go I I I I assumed it was going to be dick related
• 56:14
  and I wasn't disappointed y yeah Rob
• 56:19
  speak dick news there is Dick news there's some very disturbing dick news
• 56:24
  all right take us through the dick news PR the second all about Dick it's dick
• 56:31
  news this is something that came out in some UK Journal that I there's more to
• 56:37
  it they' they've written this in a very nice way they've been very kind to this
• 56:42
  young man haven't they the 15-year-old boy was triggered by sexual
• 56:48
  curiosity such such a funny phrase isn't
• 56:52
  it that he got a USB cable
• 56:57
  stuck up his penis now the article I originally read was he was the story was
• 57:02
  he was trying to measure his penis yes I read that too I think if you're going to
• 57:06
  measure your penis you to be outside outside right I mean there's the debate
• 57:11
  whether you do it along the top the bottom or the side but I don't think
• 57:14
  there's ever a debate for the inside and also how long how deep is my urethra and
• 57:21
  also a ruler yeah not a cable still not
• 57:26
  the inside and not a USB cable there's thinner cables than USB USB but the
• 57:33
  thing I don't understand is like cuz I'm thinking like he and it goes in and
• 57:37
  explains like he got had like both ends stuck out cu he tried once he' realized
• 57:42
  it was a horrible mistake he tried to correct and ended up somehow with both
• 57:46
  ends coming out but I think it's Al like you have to go in the show notes there
• 57:53
  will be a link go look at the X-ray for this cuz it's not what you think no it's
• 57:58
  not it and you know when you leave a USB in your bag or something and it gets all
• 58:03
  tangled up that happens when it's inside you
• 58:08
  apparently cuz there was a lot of this Cable in him yeah and I I just don't
• 58:14
  understand how how that I really don't get it I don't understand how we how do
• 58:19
  I fix this go more further in it got it went in and got wrapped wrapped around
• 58:25
  these balls what I mean it's it backs up
• 58:27
  on itself several times and also is in
• 58:32
  his [ __ ] ball sack as well it's got in there wrapped around the back of his
• 58:36
  ball so he can't be pulled out now you
• 58:40
  couldn't try to get it to do this now what happened was they take him to the
• 58:45
  hospital when he starts urinating blood at this stage he's still his
• 58:51
  parents still don't know or they think he's oh my God he's pissing blood yeah
• 58:55
  yeah and then he goes to the doctor goes can I get my mom to leave the
• 58:59
  room and then explains to the doctor and then just gets there and there just
• 59:05
  like very thick cable and two ends of a
• 59:09
  USB cable sticking out the um the the X-ray is very disturbing but
• 59:16
  what's more disturbing to me personally is when you see yeah the photo of what
• 59:20
  the cable now looks like I mean bloody to say the least but
• 59:25
  also just the amount of Tangled that it is and
• 59:29
  where they've had to cut to get this thing even out of this poor boy cuz the
• 59:36
  whole thing the to get that far and that Tangled and where it was Tangled he had
• 59:41
  to go in a very long way for that to even start to happen I don't now look
• 59:47
  I've never purposely put anything into
• 59:50
  my dick right I'll say that right now y I wouldn't know how
• 59:57
  and I would assume it would take a certain amount of like pressure yeah
• 1:00:02
  effort yeah like it's not you'd have to really want to do it this isn't
• 1:00:07
  something you're doing by accident yeah you're not I fell and in and a [ __ ]
• 1:00:13
  cable which is like flimsy as all [ __ ]
• 1:00:17
  mhm and also very big at at least one
• 1:00:21
  end well he didn't have the ends in yes but I argue if you're trying to measure
• 1:00:28
  something you got to measure it from one end
• 1:00:32
  what I I don't know I don't know either people you read the article work it out
• 1:00:37
  for yourself cuz I don't understand and I I I love this though the article says
• 1:00:42
  the most common reasons for inserting foreign objects into the body are sexual
• 1:00:46
  curiosity sexual practiced after intoxication and mental health disorders
• 1:00:52
  well yeah yeah I I I'm still saying like this triggered by sexual curiosity drunk
• 1:00:57
  as a [ __ ] skunk I've never G hey hand
• 1:01:02
  me that USB cable watch this I I I'm trying to think of the thinnest thing I
• 1:01:06
  can think of which is like a sewing needle I wouldn't put that in my [ __ ] dick
• 1:01:13
  no if they said here's a row of atoms stacked one at top another insert this
• 1:01:18
  into your be like no no who's saying
• 1:01:24
  that I'd have to just trust them that they were holding the atoms too
• 1:01:31
  really why are you going along with them now no to be clear I'm not going along
• 1:01:38
  with it I believe them that they've got the atoms I just don't want to put them
• 1:01:41
  in my dick they're on this my finger now just put them in let me put them in you
• 1:01:47
  they're on the end of my dick I also want this known this was in
• 1:01:53
  the UK yes but this is one of the things that just
• 1:01:58
  could happen anywhere these days yeah I know but I just I feel we need cuz
• 1:02:04
  obviously we're transpacific here on the on the podcast we're we're recording
• 1:02:08
  from both Australia and America most weeks and the things we report on
• 1:02:13
  genuinely happen in one of those two those two yeah so I just not this time
• 1:02:18
  yeah I feel where uh we we can just be happy that finally
• 1:02:22
  something is not happening in either of our two two countries in all fairness
• 1:02:27
  it's mostly America definitely mostly America there's only one geek at work
• 1:02:31
  this week and there was no competition this week for me okay so regardless of
• 1:02:36
  who else was in nor McDonald was going to win nor
• 1:02:43
  McDonald we I I've just always thought he was like the funniest from that generation
• 1:02:50
  ofn and definitely like not the household name that Adam Sandler became
• 1:02:56
  any those other guys from from his from his team I think he was the funniest and
• 1:03:01
  he went on to do the he had a show spinoff show called the norm show I
• 1:03:05
  don't think you ever saw it I I love that show that went for three seasons
• 1:03:09
  and then but it's also coming out now that a lot of it was just execs coming
• 1:03:14
  down and not liking his comedy and sort of well he does have a challenging
• 1:03:19
  comedy style like it's not for every it's not very broad like Adam Sandler
• 1:03:24
  you know or um what what's the what's the guy that always turns into things
• 1:03:29
  who's friends with these guys Rob Schneider Rob Schneider Rob Schneider um
• 1:03:33
  oh the the other one um yeah like um the little short one the blonde one oh
• 1:03:40
  yeah yeah exactly those those guys but he was just yeah I think no for me he
• 1:03:46
  just he was always funny it was that dead pen but not dead pen at the same
• 1:03:50
  time for me he's always Bert Reynolds on
• 1:03:55
  Celebrity Jeopardy Y and I'm not a huge fan of um Will
• 1:04:00
  Farrell by by any means but everyone who was on That Celebrity Jeopardy sketch
• 1:04:06
  was excellent those were just so well written mhm and and Norm as uh Bert
• 1:04:13
  Reynolds Turd Ferguson yep just so
• 1:04:17
  memorable yeah he he he's not in a lot no I think a lot of more most of his
• 1:04:23
  stuff was probably more stand up that yeah I think it's cuz he had a couple of
• 1:04:27
  movies SNL Norm show but a lot of has some cameos in like Adam sand movies
• 1:04:32
  like in Adam sand movies Billy Madison he just his friend who hangs out by the
• 1:04:36
  pool yeah um then even later he play he was like my name's ear and stuff like as
• 1:04:43
  a spin-off character for that for a couple of episodes but yeah I don't know
• 1:04:47
  I think yeah you know what he was he was best on talk shows when he was being
• 1:04:53
  interviewed and he would tell stor that would just went for [ __ ] ages
• 1:05:00
  and sounded like they were going in One Direction as some kind of punch line to
• 1:05:04
  a joke and then he would just spin it to be about something completely different
• 1:05:08
  than unexpected and you know you'd always see the hosts in tears yep well
• 1:05:13
  even Annie RoR his sister Annie RoR put a tweet up going he's a message from my
• 1:05:17
  sister and his sister's like remember that time I came to see you in the
• 1:05:20
  office and you were off rehearsing something and Norm was there I was 18
• 1:05:23
  nor just sat down and spoke to me and asked about my my life for like an hour
• 1:05:26
  and it's like the that's the only person who I've met from like all of your like
• 1:05:31
  quotequote famous friends that actually
• 1:05:33
  was wow interested in who I was not just
• 1:05:38
  so um jokes aside he died of cancer and apparently he's had this for some time
• 1:05:44
  and and just hadn't made it public so yep seems to be the seems to be the new
• 1:05:49
  thing it's yeah I think people been happen a bit lately I think people when
• 1:05:54
  they find out they have cancer are so [ __ ] angry at cancer itself just at
• 1:05:59
  the concept of cancer that they're like [ __ ] you you're not going to ruin my
• 1:06:02
  life I've got things I want to do first I'm going to get them all out of the way
• 1:06:05
  and if you kill me after that mhm fine but yeah no no just yeah just
• 1:06:11
  become the thing yeah going to get cancer not tell anyone and just work
• 1:06:16
  through all these terrible it must be hard though and I remember you telling
• 1:06:18
  me years ago that when you had when you had the Big C your family weren't using
• 1:06:23
  the word cancer no for for a Time and um and then your oncologist I think at one
• 1:06:29
  point were like first say cancer because that's what you're up against so that's
• 1:06:34
  what we've got to call it and it was funny my mom when she had cancer same
• 1:06:38
  thing she wouldn't say it she just didn't want to say cancer that's what it
• 1:06:43
  is yeah yeah and it sucks and it's
• 1:06:47
  common as all [ __ ] mhm like all of these kind of people who used to die of old
• 1:06:53
  age or natural causes like well most of that was cancer one form of or another
• 1:06:59
  yeah well that's what thing like there thing like people with this is a lot of
• 1:07:03
  this cancer stuff has probably been around for a very long time but people
• 1:07:06
  didn't know why people died you just yeah exactly died they just died you
• 1:07:09
  like [ __ ] yeah [ __ ] cancer now let's
