  SPEAKER_01: But it's good to have you back.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_01: I'm really excited to do this one.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_01: This is gonna be fun.
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_01: So you've been away for a long time.
• 4:38
  SPEAKER_01: Let me explain how this works.
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_01: So on High and Dry podcast, we start every episode off with a moral dilemma, a conundrum, a quandary.
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_01: We talk it out, and then it devolves into a fist fight, as those things most often do.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_01: But what sets us apart is first we get really drunk and then we get really high.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_01: So, James, what are you smoking today?
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_02: Uh I am smoking a wonderful strain called peach rings.
• 5:03
  SPEAKER_02: I had peach rings on probably like six or seven episodes ago, but it's still kicking.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_02: I still have it here.
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_02: I've got a whole gram of it.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_02: It's gonna last a long time.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_01: Nice, very nice, very nice.
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_01: And Trey, what about you?
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_01: What are you you're coming back on as a drunken philosopher because of professional constraints?
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_01: What are you drinking today?
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_04: I visited the fine island of England.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_04: I'm lying.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_04: It's Canadian whiskey.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_04: Fine deluxe is what it says.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_02: But that's what we isn't that goofy that the queen of England is the queen of Canada, also.
• 5:49
  SPEAKER_02: Doesn't Canada have a king?
• 5:51
  SPEAKER_02: That's a queen.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_02: It's not queen.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_01: Very nice.
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_01: And I will be joining you guys with a special selection just to enjoy myself again with this special episode.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_01: We have New Amsterdam's pink Whitney.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_01: Here we go again.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_02: Open! You have a bottle of it open right there.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_02: Can you reach it?
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_02: All right, we got ridiculous, everybody.
• 6:17
  SPEAKER_02: This is nonsense.
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_02: We don't come prepared.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_02: We're professionals.
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we're professionals.
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_01: Professionals don't come prepared, they improvise.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_01: And because of that, we have a steady fandom numbering in the 12s and 20s, depending on who's on the show.
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, it's served as well.
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_01: So it's time to get a little drunk, it's time to get a little high.
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_01: This first toast, of course, going out to Carl Urban, share, and for the second time in high and dry history, Trey.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_01: Cheers.
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_01: Cheers.
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_01: Cheers.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_01: You know, I wonder who that first toast was out to.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_00: Ding.
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_02: Air clink.
• 7:09
  SPEAKER_02: Did you say air clink?
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_02: Yes, I did.
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, that went down good.
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_00: That went down good.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_00: I smoked way too much.
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_01: So that brings us into our second toast.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_01: Our second toast goes out to a new place.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_01: It's listening into us.
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_01: And you know, I was actually being a little uh less than generous to ourselves.
• 7:39
  SPEAKER_01: Last episode it really kicked right up off the gate.
• 7:41
  SPEAKER_01: We've shot like pretty high immediately.
• 7:43
  SPEAKER_01: And we have a new listener from Cherwood, Oregon.

• 8:54
  SPEAKER_02: Um I actually don't know how much it how how how what the wage was or anything.
• 9:02
  SPEAKER_02: I was too young to conceptualize that.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 9:05
  SPEAKER_02: I think I actually even worked there at like 13 as my mom's busboy.
• 9:09
  SPEAKER_02: Because she'd work, she was a waitress and she'd work like big banquets.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_01: Huh.
• 9:13
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I don't know what's worse because when I was about 11, I worked on a farm for so much an hour at the behest of my father, who felt that I needed to learn the value of a dollar.
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_01: So by the time I was at your age of going to a golf course, I've been like, what are you paying?
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_01: I, you know, I need I had a concept of an hourly wage.

  SPEAKER_04: It was just me and this guy.
• 9:47
  SPEAKER_02: Can you please take our kid and make him work?
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_04: I'm looking back on it now, like, whoa, this is I didn't know him for real for real, but he was a family friend, and he was like, hey, I need to make some money.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_04: And my folks were like, all right, we got you here, right?
• 10:06
  SPEAKER_04: This guy.

• 10:15
  SPEAKER_01: None of those things are gonna happen.
• 10:17
  SPEAKER_04: That is funny.

  SPEAKER_04: I never understood that.

  SPEAKER_01: 52% of you.
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_01: Cheers.
• 12:06
  SPEAKER_01: I think it's even higher than that now.
• 12:13
  SPEAKER_02: I think it's like three-quarters of all uh eligible adults have had at least one of those.
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_02: So I've seen that article.
• 12:19
  SPEAKER_01: That was three-quarters of all people over 60.
• 12:22
  SPEAKER_02: Uh I thought it was people our age, also.
• 12:25
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I was reading an article today um from several doctors who said that the only people we currently have in the ICU for COVID are unvaccinated.
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_01: So get your shots, people.
• 12:36
  SPEAKER_01: Um and uh Biden will take that check anytime now.
• 12:41
  SPEAKER_02: He's supposed to be sending them more out.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, if you could.
• 12:44
  SPEAKER_01: Um I don't know why you guys thought we were supposed to survive on three thousand dollars.
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_01: Isn't that the grand total?
• 12:50
  SPEAKER_01: What did we come to?
• 12:51
  SPEAKER_01: Something like that.
• 12:51
  SPEAKER_02: But it wasn't enough when we've all got like that's rent for three months if you're in a normal place.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_04: It's been going on for a goddamn year.
• 12:59
  SPEAKER_04: Wait, what?
• 13:00
  SPEAKER_04: The government not giving out enough money to help the public.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_02: What this is a surprise.
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_02: I am surprised.
• 13:08
  SPEAKER_02: I am shocked.
• 13:10
  SPEAKER_01: But instead of talking about it, we have something more important to talk to.
• 13:13
  SPEAKER_01: I got a philosophical question for you guys.
• 13:16
  SPEAKER_01: Let's jump into it.
• 13:17
  SPEAKER_01: Boo, philosophy.
• 13:18
  SPEAKER_04: Ready for the philosophy.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_04: Let's go.
• 13:21
  SPEAKER_01: So we'll see.
• 13:23
  SPEAKER_01: So this question.
• 13:25
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so I had a harder version of the question, but then I felt like that might be too intensive.
• 13:30
  SPEAKER_02: These people are too dumb to handle that hard question.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_01: So, well, I had two versions of the question.
• 13:36
  SPEAKER_01: I'll let you guys pick which one you'd like.
• 13:38
  SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_01: So there's two versions of the question.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_01: Both of them start with, you have died.
• 13:42
  SPEAKER_01: I don't like either one of these.
• 13:45
  SPEAKER_03: It sounds like he's doing so.
• 13:50
  SPEAKER_01: In a previous question, we did like this: you've died, you're you're at the gates, wherever it is you are, and Anubis or Gritty offers you a book of your life, and what was it?
• 13:59
  SPEAKER_01: This time it's Anubis or Gritty, and he's like, He put you're walking into heaven, and he like puts his hand on your chest.
• 14:06
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 14:07
  SPEAKER_01: And he says, Uh, you didn't make the cut.
• 14:11
  SPEAKER_01: But attack and dethrone God.
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_01: He says, Look, I don't know if you've read that book, but it's super fucking hard to get in here.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and he says, I'll give you, however, one shot to convince me through your life, or however you want to convince me, to let you in.
• 14:29
  SPEAKER_01: The question I have for you guys is, What are you gonna say to him to let you in?
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_01: That was that that's like the question I was going with.
• 14:38
  SPEAKER_01: There was a second version where I was going to ask he um, he was gonna show you like minutes from your life, and he's like, This is the worst thing you've ever done, and this is the best thing you've ever done.
• 14:47
  SPEAKER_01: I felt like uh who knows, maybe that's a little too much.
• 14:50
  SPEAKER_02: That's pretty intense.
• 14:51
  SPEAKER_02: That is pretty intense.
• 14:53
  SPEAKER_02: So that's when the question I've got a real piece of shit.
• 14:56
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't know if I want to say what the worst thing is.
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_02: Listen, I don't want to lie.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_04: Sounds like a Patreon episode where you start to start.
• 15:06
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, you gotta pay money for this one.
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_02: Just log in on this episode.
• 15:11
  SPEAKER_02: Listen, I've ruined many lives, and picking the picking the one that was the worst is gonna be difficult.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_02: So we'll be here all day.
• 15:18
  SPEAKER_01: So instead, gritty, he's looking at you with those eyes of his.
• 15:23
  SPEAKER_01: Um, he's of the Philadelphia Flyers, and he says, I'll give you one chance to convince me that you belong here.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_01: Um, otherwise, you gotta go to the other place.
• 15:34
  SPEAKER_01: Eternal torture, all that sort of thing.
• 15:36
  SPEAKER_01: Um, because I'm gritty.
• 15:39
  SPEAKER_01: That's what it is, what it is.
• 15:41
  SPEAKER_01: So guests first.
• 15:42
  SPEAKER_01: Greedy's not letting anyone in.
• 15:44
  SPEAKER_01: Gritty's a real dick.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_01: He still is a cake at you.
• 15:51
  SPEAKER_01: Uh so guests first, Trey, you're you're at the pearly gates, and this creature, gritty, bigfoot, whoever, um, is saying, talk me into it.
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_01: Why should I let you in?
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_01: What do you say to him?
• 16:03
  SPEAKER_04: Oh man.
• 16:04
  SPEAKER_04: So I died.
• 16:06
  SPEAKER_04: I'm at the pearly gates, and I'm stopped by gritty, which I didn't think this is how the pearly gates would be, but I guess you're the gatekeeper.
• 16:18
  SPEAKER_04: So he's got his skates on, too.
• 16:20
  SPEAKER_04: I'm like, this is this is weird.
• 16:23
  SPEAKER_04: So all right.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_01: And he just he doesn't blink or anything, he just continues to stare at you until you speak.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is a fever dream.
• 16:35
  SPEAKER_01: You're ODing right now at the Tau Nightclub, and this is the fever dream.
• 16:43
  SPEAKER_01: Talk me into it.
• 16:43
  SPEAKER_01: Why should I let you in?
• 16:45
  SPEAKER_04: Oh fuck, all right, really.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_04: Look, it's just you and me here.
• 16:49
  SPEAKER_04: First off, affirmative action.
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_04: So it's about time.
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_04: Let's pull the race car early.
• 16:58
  SPEAKER_04: Let's see how that works.
• 17:01
  SPEAKER_04: I don't have enough of us in there.
• 17:03
  SPEAKER_04: I will help you meet your quota.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_04: If that one doesn't work, then I'm like, look, for a better part of my childhood in life, I went to church.
• 17:21
  SPEAKER_04: I read the Bible.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_04: You should turn the other cheek, allow me in.
• 17:27
  SPEAKER_04: I did not kill no one.
• 17:30
  SPEAKER_04: As far as you know.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and as you do this, I just want you to imagine Gritty staring slack jawed with his crazy eyes, unblinking while you try and explain this to him.
• 17:41
  SPEAKER_04: Look, look, after after the race car, I'm I'm out of actions.
• 17:46
  SPEAKER_04: So I'm pulling I'm pulling out my back pocket here.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_04: So so like I said, let he should know I didn't kill nobody.
• 17:54
  SPEAKER_04: He should know I have a good heart, and he should also know that I will slip him some money.
• 18:04
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 18:06
  SPEAKER_04: Let me into the club, really.
• 18:09
  SPEAKER_04: But besides that, you know, if we're being honest, like I said, I'm a good dude.
• 18:13
  SPEAKER_04: I haven't done nothing wrong.
• 18:14
  SPEAKER_04: Uh I should be on the list if I'm not on the list.
• 18:17
  SPEAKER_04: I'd like to know what didn't let me be on the list.
• 18:21
  SPEAKER_04: You combine different fabrics.
• 18:27
  SPEAKER_01: That is cotton, and that is not.
• 18:29
  SPEAKER_04: That's all it takes.
• 18:30
  SPEAKER_04: I'm screwed.
• 18:31
  SPEAKER_02: You had a shrimp, you had a shrimp that one time.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, remember when you had shrimp.
• 18:35
  SPEAKER_04: Oh my god.
• 18:38
  SPEAKER_04: I love seafood, so I'm done.
• 18:46
  SPEAKER_02: The punishment in hell is being forced fed shrimp, and that's like a big buffet, and like everybody's having gay sex.
• 18:55
  SPEAKER_02: That's like, whoa, this is awesome.
• 19:01
  SPEAKER_02: Whoa, all the things that the Bible's against, they like they think it's a punishment.
• 19:05
  SPEAKER_02: It's great to be here.
• 19:07
  SPEAKER_04: I'm down there.
• 19:08
  SPEAKER_04: Oh no, see me.
• 19:13
  SPEAKER_01: Come in, let me show you around.
• 19:17
  SPEAKER_01: Um, all right, so so James, you've just made it up there.
• 19:21
  SPEAKER_01: Gritty's like, why should I let you in?
• 19:23
  SPEAKER_01: So I assess the situation really quick.
• 19:25
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 19:26
  SPEAKER_02: You said he's still in his skates, right?
• 19:28
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 19:28
  SPEAKER_02: What's the terrain?
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_02: Can I can I make it to the door while he's distracted?
• 19:33
  SPEAKER_01: Well, no, he's like frozen.
• 19:35
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah.
• 19:37
  SPEAKER_04: It's probably clouds.
• 19:38
  SPEAKER_04: He has like special skates.
• 19:41
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 19:43
  SPEAKER_02: I'm just I'm just wondering if I can outrun him after you get to heaven.
• 19:52
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 19:52
  SPEAKER_01: That's what he just starts to do while he's waiting for you to talk.
• 19:55
  SPEAKER_02: Ah, okay.
• 19:56
  SPEAKER_02: So I've tried these other pearly gates.
• 20:00
  SPEAKER_02: I would try to do thousand and one nights at talking for as long as possible.
• 20:06
  SPEAKER_01: You're gonna filibuster your way into heaven.
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_02: I'm just gonna keep going.
• 20:13
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I'm gonna start real early in my life and then go from there.
• 20:19
  SPEAKER_04: The crazy thing is he sleeps with his eyes open too, so you don't know.
• 20:24
  SPEAKER_02: You don't even know if he's there anymore.
• 20:29
  SPEAKER_02: So I was so tired, we gotta we gotta postpone for a little bit and then I'll continue my argument tomorrow.
• 20:35
  SPEAKER_01: So you're gonna filler bust your way through to Pearly Gates.
• 20:40
  SPEAKER_02: I would be like, so honest, my honest reaction is I'd be like, you know, uh I as soon as someone explained to me, I did my best, and I'd go through my life and I'd be like, here's the point where someone explained it to me and it made sense, and that that quintessential thing that has brought humanity so far, collaboration and cooperation, and a desire to support someone and inform them so that they make better decisions, that really made differences at crucial parts of my life.
• 21:22
  SPEAKER_02: And if I had been taught sooner about respecting other people and about respecting myself through respecting other people and finding joy and in the things I have and all of those things earlier, I bet I would have been better, you know?
• 21:37
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 21:38
  SPEAKER_02: But but when it but when it was clear to me, I did my very best and I'd point out all those great spots where I succeeded.
• 21:46
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, all right.
• 21:48
  SPEAKER_00: Um then uh so for me, I know no one I know is getting in there.
• 21:59
  SPEAKER_04: I don't think you can make it up the stairs.
• 22:01
  SPEAKER_02: You get there and be like, wait a second.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_02: You wouldn't even you'd be like, hold on, what is this to taunt me?
• 22:10
  SPEAKER_02: Taunting me?
• 22:12
  SPEAKER_02: Fuck you.
• 22:15
  SPEAKER_01: Well I think I think everyone's brave until the first time they get flayed alive.
• 22:20
  SPEAKER_01: You know, and so I probably make some hasty decisions in my first speech to him.
• 22:25
  SPEAKER_01: Um but I I you know if I'm I'm coming up here and he's saying I didn't cut it, you know, he's like, You touched your damn wiener.
• 22:33
  SPEAKER_01: And I'm like, shit.
• 22:35
  SPEAKER_04: Um well I can't take it back now.
• 22:39
  SPEAKER_04: That's when you play the car.
• 22:41
  SPEAKER_04: Well, I have to peace.
• 22:43
  SPEAKER_01: What do you want from me?
• 22:44
  SPEAKER_00: Um, are you coming on to me?
• 22:47
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, fuck gritty.
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_04: There you go.
• 22:51
  SPEAKER_04: Distract him, sexual harassment.
• 22:53
  SPEAKER_04: There you go.
• 22:56
  SPEAKER_01: You're talking about you know, I I would go into and again, you know, uh probably the first time I went to the other place and I'm being filleted, I'll regret it.
• 23:08
  SPEAKER_02: I'm just imagining Grady being like, you ask him, like, has anyone ever tried to fuck you?
• 23:14
  SPEAKER_02: It's like why is that everybody's first choice on the charge if we try to do that first?
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_01: Everybody everyone tries that.
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_01: Uh well, I think he would just stare at you like he's been doing.
• 23:28
  SPEAKER_01: Like you don't know, is he into it?
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and you start kind of just start two-stepping towards him.
• 23:36
  SPEAKER_02: A failure on this one on your uh on trying to convince him would be the ultimate disgrace.
• 23:42
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 23:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_01: But but I'd be like, I I don't think anyone that I've known.
• 23:48
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, if we're playing by these sort of cosmic rules where you you're having us go one way or the other, and you never told us the fucking game.
• 23:53
  SPEAKER_01: You didn't even tell us we were playing.
• 23:55
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you know, we're like, who the fuck are you?
• 23:58
  SPEAKER_01: Uh gritty.
• 23:59
  SPEAKER_01: I yeah, I apologize, but who's the guy who's telling you to do this?
• 24:02
  SPEAKER_01: You know, or it's a bigger form of it's just a bigger gritty.
• 24:07
  SPEAKER_02: That's kind of the conclusion we came to in the make the hue make the defense of humanity, because this is kind of a defense of humanity.
• 24:15
  SPEAKER_02: We're all human.
• 24:16
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 24:16
  SPEAKER_02: And the problem is just like humanity, we've all made mistakes that have hurt ourselves and others.
• 24:22
  SPEAKER_02: And uh and it's the same argument.
• 24:24
  SPEAKER_02: How do you defend humanity?
• 24:26
  SPEAKER_02: Well, I mean, it is quintessentially human to fail and then get better, and then fail and then get better.
• 24:32
  SPEAKER_02: It's quintessentially human.
• 24:34
  SPEAKER_01: But then I I think just paradise is so relative, and honestly, I don't want it.
• 24:38
  SPEAKER_01: You know, in my opinion, and what I've come for is life is fucking and fighting, and you know, getting into the gritty of it and falling down and picking yourself back up and learning from it and figuring it out.
• 24:50
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe that's paradise.
• 24:52
  SPEAKER_02: And no, yeah, I'm gonna be like, I'm gonna put my hand on Gritty's chest.
• 25:01
  SPEAKER_02: No, you.
• 25:03
  SPEAKER_01: No, you're not allowed in here.
• 25:06
  SPEAKER_01: And I'm gonna long butt in.
• 25:16
  SPEAKER_02: The only being who can't go through that door is you.
• 25:21
  SPEAKER_04: He's like, there's the movie montage.
• 25:26
  SPEAKER_01: He remembers all of Philadelphia Flyers' losses and you know, all the times he let them down, and but then he brought them together, and we forgive him, and we all get in there, and it's it's all good.
• 25:37
  SPEAKER_02: You're stuck here, you don't get to go anywhere ever.
• 25:42
  SPEAKER_01: Well, uh Trey, moving it back to you, what are your final thoughts on the topic?
• 25:47
  SPEAKER_01: What do you think?
• 25:48
  SPEAKER_04: I think when it when it all boils down to it because there's so many different religions and thought processes and higher powers, it's more or less about what you view as what will get you to the end goal of paradise.
• 26:08
  SPEAKER_04: Like everyone starts off or has they they eventually get to a point where they have an idea of what it is on the other side of their life.
• 26:20
  SPEAKER_04: And at any point, if you yourself know that you failed on that end, then you kind of have an idea of where you're gonna end up.
• 26:29
  SPEAKER_04: Regardless of what you you know, regardless of what you follow.
• 26:31
  SPEAKER_04: You follow something, and so if you yourself off what you follow know you did not meet it, then you're probably gonna end up wherever you feel like you should go.
• 26:42
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so it's a self-evaluation.
• 26:43
  SPEAKER_02: Self-evaluations are always the worst, yeah.
• 26:46
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, okay.
• 26:47
  SPEAKER_02: Solid interest space.
• 26:49
  SPEAKER_02: Well, then my biggest weakness is that I work too hard.
• 26:55
  SPEAKER_01: Well well, that being the case, if you don't mind just like a quick, fast one, we just have a few more minutes on it.
• 27:00
  SPEAKER_01: Where would you go then?
• 27:02
  SPEAKER_04: Well I go, yeah.
• 27:04
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, to paradise.
• 27:06
  SPEAKER_04: You can't kick a black guy out.
• 27:07
  SPEAKER_04: That's that's it's it's gonna mean down in your permanent record.
• 27:11
  SPEAKER_04: It's the rules now.
• 27:12
  SPEAKER_04: It's just the rules, it's just the rules now.
• 27:14
  SPEAKER_04: But no, for my life, I I've I feel like I would make it up.
• 27:19
  SPEAKER_04: Um whatever paradise is on the tail end of it, that you know, I don't know.
• 27:25
  SPEAKER_04: No one knows what it is, but I shouldn't end up in hell or Haiti.
• 27:31
  SPEAKER_02: There's gotta be a medium place for medium people, like Cleveland.
• 27:36
  SPEAKER_04: There's a limbo somewhere for someone with all the crying babies.
• 27:41
  unknown: Yeah.
• 27:44
  SPEAKER_01: They were never baptized, anyway.
• 27:47
  SPEAKER_04: So yeah.
• 27:48
  SPEAKER_01: Well then the new pub do I don't know.
• 27:50
  SPEAKER_01: Anyway, um, so James, final thoughts.
• 27:55
  SPEAKER_01: What's going on?
• 27:56
  SPEAKER_02: What do you want what happens with Gritty?
• 27:58
  SPEAKER_02: I think it's incredibly I think it's in I think it's incredibly egotistical to think that in the grand mechanism of the universe we'd get FaceTime with some some cosmic being that'd be like, hey, one-on-one, what's all this about?
• 28:16
  SPEAKER_01: But he's talking to billions of people at the same time.
• 28:18
  SPEAKER_01: It's gritty.
• 28:18
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I'm saying like the idea that that entity cares about the self-evaluation is nonsense.
• 28:25
  SPEAKER_02: Like this entity, there's no way for all of time this entity can give a shit about individual people.
• 28:34
  SPEAKER_02: For the sake of the question, are you some cosmic survey?
• 28:38
  SPEAKER_02: Are you like are you trying are you a data and analysis bot for the universe?
• 28:43
  SPEAKER_01: Well, it's for the egotism, it's for the sake of the egotistical nature of humanity to think that it it's all about us in the end.
• 28:52
  SPEAKER_01: And for the sake of this question, it is.
• 28:54
  SPEAKER_02: That's how I'd respond to agree.
• 28:55
  SPEAKER_02: I'd be like, what kind of interdimensional system is this where human where where I as a human get one-on-one FaceTime with some cosmic entity to self-evaluate?
• 29:05
  SPEAKER_02: Like I spent my whole life self-evaluating.
• 29:07
  SPEAKER_02: Here's here's the proof that I did it.
• 29:10
  SPEAKER_02: Like, what's up with this?
• 29:12
  SPEAKER_02: Hello, bot, is anyone there?
• 29:14
  SPEAKER_02: Can I talk to a representative?
• 29:19
  SPEAKER_01: For me, I mean, like I said, I I don't I don't want whatever's back there.
• 29:23
  SPEAKER_01: You know, I don't want I want it.
• 29:25
  SPEAKER_02: It's whatever you want.
• 29:26
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, you assume it's what you want.
• 29:29
  SPEAKER_02: You're right.
• 29:29
  SPEAKER_02: You assume it's what you want.
• 29:30
  SPEAKER_04: Because you assume that the other place will fit into what you want, but maybe it's the reverse.
• 29:36
  SPEAKER_04: Maybe what you want is on behind gritty, and hell is where you wouldn't fit in.
• 29:43
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 29:44
  SPEAKER_01: Well then I say to gritty, like, look, I there's so many goddamn rules made up by so many fucking people.
• 29:50
  SPEAKER_01: I did the best I could.
• 29:51
  SPEAKER_01: I legitimately tried to be better, to to stop fucking with the people around me.
• 29:56
  SPEAKER_01: I tried to give a damn, and that that was it was I gave it the best I could.
• 30:01
  SPEAKER_01: So wherever you sent me, whatever.
• 30:04
  SPEAKER_02: I I would just be like, I would be like, people who deserve to go and don't need to defend themselves.
• 30:08
  SPEAKER_02: I'd keep walking.
• 30:11
  SPEAKER_02: It's like, damn, that's a cold ass home game.
• 30:18
  SPEAKER_04: You close your eyes and your tickets punched.
• 30:21
  SPEAKER_04: It's like your elevator goes up or it goes down.
• 30:24
  SPEAKER_01: You're like, so I'll hit the button.
• 30:26
  SPEAKER_01: See what happens.
• 30:29
  SPEAKER_01: Well, there you go.
• 30:30
  SPEAKER_01: So there it is, everybody.
• 30:31
  SPEAKER_01: We have figured out what we'd say to Gritty at the Pearlie Gates, because that's who's there now.
• 30:37
  SPEAKER_04: I don't watch hockey enough for him to be my boy.
• 30:40
  SPEAKER_01: It's all part of the convoluted canon of high and dry.
• 30:43
  SPEAKER_01: Shares in a box seat somewhere.
• 30:45
  SPEAKER_01: Everyone's listening to her, and Gritty's every magical creature ever.
• 30:49
  SPEAKER_01: So it is what it is.
• 30:50
  SPEAKER_02: I wonder if it's time to to differentiate our world building.
• 30:55
  SPEAKER_02: Maybe, maybe we have to retire some jokes that sometimes never.
• 30:59
  SPEAKER_03: Never.
• 31:00
  SPEAKER_03: Okay.
• 31:00
  SPEAKER_03: Never.
• 31:03
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 31:05
  SPEAKER_01: So it's time to get into our fist fight, and we have we have a fun one for you in honor of Trey coming on back.
• 31:11
  SPEAKER_01: So before we do that, though, we gotta get a little more drunk, we gotta get a little more high.
• 31:15
  SPEAKER_01: So it's time to pour one more up.
• 31:18
  SPEAKER_01: And look at this.
• 31:18
  SPEAKER_01: I have to open the second bottle.
• 31:21
  SPEAKER_01: Only one or two?
• 31:23
  SPEAKER_01: Just the one.
• 31:24
  SPEAKER_01: Just the one.
• 31:25
  SPEAKER_01: Well, you never know what's gonna happen in the middle of this fight.
• 31:27
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, okay, gotcha.
• 31:29
  SPEAKER_02: Keep your dukes up.
• 31:34
  SPEAKER_02: It's a lot of dead air.
• 31:35
  SPEAKER_02: What's going on?
• 31:39
  SPEAKER_04: I was like, is there another thing?
• 31:42
  SPEAKER_01: So it's time for our third toast.
• 31:44
  SPEAKER_02: James, who's it to?
• 31:45
  SPEAKER_02: I know this time.
• 31:46
  SPEAKER_02: It's to the demi gorgon versus Walter White.
• 31:49
  SPEAKER_02: I remember the first time ever.
• 31:52
  SPEAKER_02: It's Trey.
• 31:53
  SPEAKER_02: It's having Trey back in my life.
• 31:55
  SPEAKER_02: Finally, after all this time.
• 31:56
  SPEAKER_02: Walter White and the Demi Gorgon.
• 32:00
  SPEAKER_01: Years to them.
• 32:01
  SPEAKER_01: Cheers.
• 32:06
  SPEAKER_02: Uh yeah.
• 32:07
  SPEAKER_02: Like when you started opening your bottle, I I was like, oh shit, that means I have to do the toast soon.
• 32:13
  SPEAKER_02: And I sat there and I was thinking, I swear to God, I was thinking for like 10 seconds.
• 32:16
  SPEAKER_02: I was like, oh my god, I saw it, and that's why there was the dead air.
• 32:19
  SPEAKER_02: I was like, I can't remember.
• 32:20
  SPEAKER_04: I was just about to say it was the dead air.
• 32:21
  SPEAKER_04: Ryan's always like, I hope James remembers to do this toast.
• 32:26
  SPEAKER_04: And he did, he got it.
• 32:27
  SPEAKER_04: Dang, I remember this toast.
• 32:28
  SPEAKER_04: And I'm just sitting here like, what the fuck's going on?
• 32:32
  SPEAKER_02: I was spaced out.
• 32:33
  SPEAKER_02: I was like, oh my god, I gotta fucking remember these two names.
• 32:37
  SPEAKER_01: So this week it's Walter White versus the Demi Gorgon of Stranger Things.
• 32:43
  SPEAKER_01: Now, how we do it in high-end, it's a proven method to determine exactly who would win when these two face off.
• 32:50
  SPEAKER_02: Dumb fucking matchup.
• 32:53
  SPEAKER_01: It's a three-round method.
• 32:55
  SPEAKER_01: Round one starts.
• 32:57
  SPEAKER_01: The two characters have entered a Gen X fight club bar, they've made it down in the basement, they take off their shirt shoes, belts, and they just punch each other to death.
• 33:07
  SPEAKER_01: Round two zooms out into a city view where these two characters have 24 hours to get it on.
• 33:12
  SPEAKER_01: They can use planning, they can buy shotguns, they can do what it takes to take the other one out.
• 33:18
  SPEAKER_01: And then round three is the same thing as round two, except this time they get to bring a friend.
• 33:23
  SPEAKER_01: So bringing it back down, where you've entered the Gen X Fight Club bar.
• 33:27
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Brad Pitt is explaining to the Demi Gorgon and Walter White the rules of fight club.
• 33:32
  SPEAKER_01: Meanwhile, Cher, Carl Urban have been introduced to the box office seats.
• 33:36
  SPEAKER_01: They've been seated.
• 33:37
  SPEAKER_01: The high and dry philosophers are now seated behind them and we're ready to begin.
• 33:41
  SPEAKER_04: Wait, wait, wait, wait.
• 33:42
  SPEAKER_04: Sorry.
• 33:42
  SPEAKER_04: What's with Carl Urban and Cher?
• 33:45
  SPEAKER_04: I know this probably we discussed before.
• 33:47
  SPEAKER_04: I want to know.
• 33:49
  SPEAKER_01: So Carl Urban, so it's so it's like the Skarsgards.
• 33:53
  SPEAKER_02: Um we also have a feud with the Skarsgards.
• 33:58
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 33:59
  SPEAKER_01: We will take any of you.
• 34:00
  SPEAKER_01: It doesn't matter.
• 34:00
  SPEAKER_01: You're all the same to us.
• 34:02
  SPEAKER_01: So you know, come on down.
• 34:04
  SPEAKER_01: Fucking bring it.
• 34:05
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I don't so I want to fight him.
• 34:08
  SPEAKER_01: Well, maybe a little bit.
• 34:09
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe a little bit.
• 34:10
  SPEAKER_04: So I think I chose the Skarsguards in his voice, like, oh my god, not this shitty.
• 34:19
  SPEAKER_01: So the Skarsguard started some shit a while back, you know, for just you know being successful and talented, and me and James want a piece of them.
• 34:26
  SPEAKER_01: Jeff Bezos, he's been watching the podcast for a while now.
• 34:29
  SPEAKER_01: You know, he we know he knows we're on to him.
• 34:31
  SPEAKER_01: Um Cher, she is prone to ultraviolence, and if she's not on a show, she's gonna kill us all.
• 34:37
  SPEAKER_01: And Carl Urban just started from a while back.
• 34:40
  SPEAKER_01: Um, he was on his Billy the Butcher, and he just kept going.
• 34:44
  SPEAKER_01: And recently it was my birthday.
• 34:45
  SPEAKER_01: I realized that we had the same fucking birthday.
• 34:48
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 34:48
  SPEAKER_01: And so at this point, it's just it's meant to be.
• 34:51
  SPEAKER_01: Same year, too.
• 34:53
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 34:54
  SPEAKER_02: Same hospital in Australia.
• 34:57
  SPEAKER_01: It was pretty crazy.
• 34:59
  SPEAKER_01: Um, we actually killed a third uh baby in the womb.
• 35:04
  SPEAKER_02: You two are you traded places of birth.
• 35:06
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I was supposed to be successful after a while and on the boys.
• 35:13
  SPEAKER_02: You know, awesome Australian accent.
• 35:15
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, not him.
• 35:16
  SPEAKER_01: Not me.
• 35:17
  SPEAKER_01: I was supposed to be in Lord of the Rings.
• 35:21
  SPEAKER_01: And now he's running my podcast and refuses to tag me back when I hit him up.
• 35:28
  SPEAKER_01: So one day, one day.
• 35:29
  SPEAKER_04: One day you'll get your due one day, Carl.
• 35:35
  SPEAKER_02: What the fuck is going on?
• 35:37
  SPEAKER_01: So one day, Carl, Sky Scouts, fuck yourselves, and Jeff Bezos, you too.
• 35:41
  SPEAKER_01: Share, we love you as always.
• 35:43
  SPEAKER_02: Please don't hurt us.
• 35:44
  SPEAKER_01: Please don't hurt a share.
• 35:45
  SPEAKER_02: Stop, please stop threatening my family.
• 35:48
  SPEAKER_01: She sends dead animals and things all the time.
• 35:51
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but anyway, we're now time to fight.
• 35:54
  SPEAKER_01: And then, like, no one ever brings up Brad Pitt.
• 35:56
  SPEAKER_01: But anyway, he's been here the whole time.
• 35:57
  SPEAKER_01: So we're now time to fight.
• 35:58
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Walter White is getting ready.
• 36:00
  SPEAKER_01: He's like shadow boxing while the Danny Gordon.
• 36:04
  SPEAKER_01: He's roaring.
• 36:05
  SPEAKER_02: Roaring in the corner.
• 36:09
  SPEAKER_01: Thinking about which piece he's gonna eat first.
• 36:12
  SPEAKER_01: Guests first.
• 36:13
  SPEAKER_01: Trey, what happens?
• 36:15
  SPEAKER_04: Oh my god.
• 36:16
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 36:20
  SPEAKER_04: So, and this is just straight.
• 36:21
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, yeah, forgot.
• 36:22
  SPEAKER_04: First round was always just straight up, no help.
• 36:25
  SPEAKER_04: Walter White against the dick.
• 36:30
  SPEAKER_04: This is in this is in actual our realm, not in the alternate, which I don't think will help anyway.
• 36:39
  SPEAKER_04: But no, no.
• 36:40
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think there's anything that can help Walter White in this fight.
• 36:45
  SPEAKER_04: I'm trying to, I'm trying to.
• 36:46
  SPEAKER_04: I'm trying to really, really think of something.
• 36:48
  SPEAKER_01: I was really hoping you'd say I don't think there's anything that can help the Demi Gorgon right now.
• 36:54
  SPEAKER_04: I'm trying to help Walter White really, really, really bad.
• 36:58
  SPEAKER_01: The Demi Gorgon's like, I don't want to get cancer.
• 37:01
  SPEAKER_04: Stay away from me.
• 37:04
  SPEAKER_04: You know what?
• 37:04
  SPEAKER_04: That's probably that he couldn't even get cancer.
• 37:09
  SPEAKER_01: Demi Gorgon didn't know how it works.
• 37:13
  SPEAKER_02: Got a lot of misinformation about it on the internet.
• 37:17
  SPEAKER_01: He was on parlor.
• 37:21
  SPEAKER_04: I I don't have anything for Waltz and White.
• 37:27
  SPEAKER_02: Does he get torn apart by like an eight-foot?
• 37:31
  SPEAKER_04: I think that Dimmi Gordon would do his slogans, he'd be confused about the table.
• 37:41
  SPEAKER_04: Is this what you bring to the table?
• 37:46
  SPEAKER_02: You think that Demi Gorgon really explores the space a little bit, finding out like what's going on?
• 37:52
  SPEAKER_02: And Walter White's like, oh my god, what the fuck is going on right now?
• 37:56
  SPEAKER_02: Shits himself.
• 37:59
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my god.
• 38:01
  SPEAKER_01: Alright, well, uh I think that's pretty succinct.
• 38:03
  SPEAKER_01: Um, James, what do you think?
• 38:05
  SPEAKER_01: I agree.
• 38:08
  SPEAKER_02: That's it.
• 38:09
  SPEAKER_02: I think that Walter White like literally shits himself to death before the Gorin can even get to him.
• 38:15
  SPEAKER_04: He kills himself, so he's no way killing him is chokes, forces himself to choke on his own tongue.
• 38:25
  SPEAKER_04: I force a draw by killing us.
• 38:29
  SPEAKER_01: So I do offer one potential possibility here.
• 38:33
  SPEAKER_02: So I don't believe you.
• 38:36
  SPEAKER_01: Brad Pitt is explaining the rules.
• 38:38
  SPEAKER_01: At that point, the camera starts slowly panning out, and we don't hear Brad Pitt anymore because Walter White's just trying to accept that he's fighting the demigorgon.
• 38:46
  SPEAKER_00: Uh-huh.
• 38:47
  SPEAKER_01: And then Walter White uses the powers of a storyboard time travel to confuse the demigorgon.
• 38:56
  SPEAKER_01: Because you start at the end, you show a little bit of the end where he's getting ripped apart by the demigor, and then it goes back to how he got here, and then it shows a little bit in the beginning, and then you realize that the demigorgon, you know, something.
• 39:06
  SPEAKER_02: But that's not okay, so that could work later, but it can't work in this empty space.
• 39:12
  SPEAKER_01: Walter White is ripped apart mercilessly.
• 39:15
  SPEAKER_04: I was about to say he shows being ripped apart also, so eventually that will have to happen.
• 39:21
  SPEAKER_03: Eventually that will have to happen.
• 39:22
  SPEAKER_01: But the storytelling on it will be tantalizing.
• 39:26
  SPEAKER_04: We will drag out this one episode for like three years.
• 39:29
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, four seasons at least.
• 39:32
  SPEAKER_01: So I think we're in agreement.
• 39:35
  SPEAKER_01: Round two has just begun.
• 39:36
  SPEAKER_01: We've zoomed out into this interview.
• 39:38
  SPEAKER_01: These two characters have received a manila envelope in their lairs.
• 39:43
  SPEAKER_02: Demi Gorgon gets a rock with like ancient, some ancient license.
• 39:50
  SPEAKER_01: It's just a picture.
• 39:59
  SPEAKER_01: It's a uh the demigorgon gets a scrawled on the rock picture of Brian Cranston in his underwear and a hat.
• 40:08
  SPEAKER_02: But it's like but it's good enough that you can tell it's Brian Cranston.
• 40:12
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's really good work.
• 40:15
  SPEAKER_01: So we've moved into round two.
• 40:16
  SPEAKER_01: They got 24 hours to kill each other.
• 40:19
  SPEAKER_01: Trey, what happens?
• 40:21
  SPEAKER_01: Guest first.
• 40:23
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 40:23
  SPEAKER_04: 24 hours to kill each other.
• 40:26
  SPEAKER_04: This actually gives, I feel like, Walter White a better chance to attempt to take out the demi Gordon.
• 40:36
  SPEAKER_04: This and this again, 24 hours, just him getting tools, no people assistance.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_04: That's third round, right?
• 40:41
  SPEAKER_04: Right, just on his own.
• 40:42
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 40:43
  SPEAKER_04: On his own, he could do a meth lab explosion with the demigordon inside of it.
• 40:49
  SPEAKER_04: He could do that for sure.
• 40:51
  SPEAKER_04: So that I feel like that would be his best case scenario.
• 40:57
  SPEAKER_04: Is he shows up in his underwear so that way as bait for the demigordon to pop up in the meth lab to cause a mass explosion, which will take out the demigordon?
• 41:11
  SPEAKER_04: The demigord literally just pop up and pop out.
• 41:14
  SPEAKER_04: He has 24 hours to do it.
• 41:17
  SPEAKER_04: But with prep time like Batman, I feel like Walter White may be able to take him out.
• 41:22
  SPEAKER_02: Alright.
• 41:22
  SPEAKER_02: Alright.
• 41:22
  SPEAKER_02: Well, James, thoughts?
• 41:24
  SPEAKER_02: You know, I was trying to think through this.
• 41:26
  SPEAKER_02: I was trying to think of the situation that Walter White would set up uh to beat the demigorgon.
• 41:33
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think an explosion would do it.
• 41:35
  SPEAKER_02: Bullets certainly didn't do it.
• 41:37
  SPEAKER_02: Um so it bullets did like nothing to it.
• 41:41
  SPEAKER_02: And I think it might have been it.
• 41:42
  SPEAKER_02: Was it blown up at any point?
• 41:44
  SPEAKER_02: Did so did anyone try to blow it up?
• 41:46
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know if they did.
• 41:47
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I don't think anyone tried to blow it up in it was more like they used eleven.
• 41:54
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they wound up using eleven ended up making it like like making it explode.
• 41:59
  SPEAKER_02: It wasn't like impact trauma.
• 42:01
  SPEAKER_01: But I also see it being like a quiet place situation where all of a sudden she takes it out with a shotgun.
• 42:08
  SPEAKER_01: What do you mean?
• 42:09
  SPEAKER_01: She doesn't though.
• 42:10
  SPEAKER_01: In a quiet place.
• 42:11
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, it was like the same fucking creature.
• 42:13
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 42:13
  SPEAKER_02: Well, but it was but it wasn't because people definitely did shoot it and it didn't die in Stranger Things.
• 42:18
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, there were like a bunch of police officers shooting bullets at it, and like it was like, what are you doing?
• 42:23
  SPEAKER_01: It was like, hey, I'm gonna kill you now.
• 42:24
  SPEAKER_01: Your average cop would never think of a methylab explosion.
• 42:27
  SPEAKER_04: That's not you're not there fire.
• 42:30
  SPEAKER_04: Not only will it explode, it will give them super high.
• 42:33
  SPEAKER_02: So that way, hold on, okay, like really toxic chemicals is something that Brian Cranston works with on that show.
• 42:45
  SPEAKER_02: Brian Cranston, the man, not Walter White.
• 42:48
  SPEAKER_02: Brian Cranston uh has toxic corrosive chemicals always on hand.
• 42:53
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's part of his contract.
• 42:54
  SPEAKER_02: Um but yeah, that's a good idea, Trey.
• 42:58
  SPEAKER_02: I totally agree.
• 43:01
  SPEAKER_02: Well, for me, chemicals, lots of chemicals.
• 43:04
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 43:04
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean for me, I think I'm gonna take that, and this is where Walter White, because I just I don't feel that so the Demi Gorgon, I don't feel is powerful enough to bring in his storytelling theme at this point.
• 43:16
  SPEAKER_01: Um, because it's definitely the DD kids who get to do that out of his universe.
• 43:21
  SPEAKER_01: But for Walter though, what I think I see this is where um you know you see that image where Walter's in his meth lab, the demigorgon busts in the door and is getting ready to tear him apart, and he's like, I bet you wonder how I got here.
• 43:35
  SPEAKER_02: No, I don't think so.
• 43:37
  SPEAKER_02: So so I disagree with that.
• 43:38
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think he I don't think he gets to do that because whenever that happens, when he's in that tight situation, and then he gets out of it, it's always because someone else in the story had some side story, and then that side story loops back around at the end, where another person's agency prevents his failure.
• 43:58
  SPEAKER_02: It's always another person's agency.
• 44:02
  SPEAKER_02: They have to act as a proxy to his success because he in is in a position of immediate failure, and he is never the person who stops that immediate failure at the end of the season, it's always something unexpected.
• 44:16
  SPEAKER_02: Not him.
• 44:17
  SPEAKER_02: It's always some unexpected effect he had on the world over the course of the season.
• 44:22
  SPEAKER_02: But he doesn't get the other people who who he affects to achieve his goal.
• 44:28
  SPEAKER_04: So what if the meth lab was an accidental explosion?
• 44:32
  SPEAKER_02: That was well no, he can blow he can blow it up.
• 44:35
  SPEAKER_02: I agree with the him blowing up.
• 44:37
  SPEAKER_01: I still see that.
• 44:38
  SPEAKER_01: Well then what I also see if the if the time thing doesn't work because of that, I think that Stranger Things season two will work against the Demi Gorgon.
• 44:47
  SPEAKER_01: Season four.
• 44:48
  SPEAKER_03: Well the worst season.
• 44:51
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, because like Walter Wright had a solid run all the way to the fucking end.
• 44:56
  SPEAKER_01: That's true.
• 44:57
  SPEAKER_01: He yes, he did.
• 44:59
  SPEAKER_01: And the demigorgon did not.
• 45:00
  SPEAKER_01: Demi Gorgon after that's true.
• 45:02
  SPEAKER_01: Well, then I would also say that the demigor one of the I think the Demi Gorgon's biggest storytelling weakness is that later on the kids find the person in question and they're fine.
• 45:13
  SPEAKER_02: Well, yeah.
• 45:14
  SPEAKER_01: And with minimal therapy.
• 45:15
  SPEAKER_02: It did it did lose against kids, but it did kill a bunch of adults, and he's an adult.
• 45:20
  SPEAKER_03: Hmm.
• 45:21
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but he says cancer.
• 45:23
  SPEAKER_01: He doesn't, though.
• 45:26
  SPEAKER_01: Well, you get him at his strongest.
• 45:28
  SPEAKER_02: You do get him at his strongest arc is when he has the cancer.
• 45:37
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, if you if you can't kill kids, you can't kill a cancer patient.
• 45:40
  SPEAKER_02: So I think I think it also helps that the Demi Gorgon, like, the whole thing was that they didn't know if it was like some kind of we knew it was extradimental, but extra-dimensional, but they like didn't know if it was alive or something.
• 45:52
  SPEAKER_02: And when when when Eleven blew it up, we definitely saw that this was like a living being.
• 45:57
  SPEAKER_02: And Walter White creates a incredibly potent organic compound that fucks with organic chemistry in a thing's brain.
• 46:09
  SPEAKER_02: And it's been shown to work across many, many, many different things.
• 46:13
  SPEAKER_02: That's probably the most solid argument right there.
• 46:15
  SPEAKER_02: It it like hurts a lot of void affects all animals.
• 46:19
  SPEAKER_04: That's how he was a really good meth lappers.
• 46:21
  SPEAKER_04: He was a very good science teacher.
• 46:24
  SPEAKER_02: If he throws like a bag of meth into that thing's mouth, that thing is like gonna be winding on the ground.
• 46:30
  SPEAKER_02: It's gonna kill kids.
• 46:32
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 46:33
  SPEAKER_02: Alright.
• 46:33
  SPEAKER_04: Well then um so he made it like uh adventure, like he throws the bag of meth.
• 46:39
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, throws the bag in its mouth.
• 46:44
  SPEAKER_01: Well, then so Trey, we need your final thoughts and we need a vote.
• 46:48
  SPEAKER_01: Walter White or the Demi Gorgon.
• 46:50
  SPEAKER_04: I feel like with 24 hour prep time like Batman, Walter White could establish a very potent toxic meth lab and have an at least that would affect if not the explosion, the toxicity of it, to get the demigord.
• 47:12
  SPEAKER_04: So I feel well Walter White.
• 47:14
  SPEAKER_04: I'll give him round two, Walter White.
• 47:16
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, alright, alright.
• 47:18
  SPEAKER_01: And then James?
• 47:19
  SPEAKER_01: I haven't decided.
• 47:20
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, and then uh well for me, I uh I just think that uh the demigorgon's meant to be overcome.
• 47:27
  SPEAKER_01: Um just like the cancer.
• 47:29
  SPEAKER_02: Well, that's sad.
• 47:30
  SPEAKER_02: That doesn't give him much hope for round three, that's for sure.
• 47:33
  SPEAKER_04: Well, he lost in Stranger Things too, so he did lose in Stranger Things.
• 47:37
  SPEAKER_02: Walter White also lost frequently.
• 47:40
  SPEAKER_02: But he always came back.
• 47:41
  SPEAKER_01: Well, but he only loses once.
• 47:42
  SPEAKER_01: But I I am my vote is gonna go for Walter.
• 47:45
  SPEAKER_01: I just see the meth head uh vampire, Batman.
• 47:48
  SPEAKER_01: Methhead Batman.
• 47:50
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and I I'm not sure.
• 47:53
  SPEAKER_02: I I I think I think it's I don't know if it's too simple just to say the demigorgon would once again pop in and out of reality and rip him apart.
• 48:00
  SPEAKER_02: He definitely doesn't get the power of his story though, but he does have the power of meth, which I think all of us have seen the effects.
• 48:08
  SPEAKER_01: Could it potentially be um I mean I guess it it doesn't a tie.
• 48:14
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, would it be a tie like the meth lab takes them both?
• 48:17
  SPEAKER_02: Possibly.
• 48:19
  SPEAKER_02: That's that's a very Walter White thing to happen.
• 48:21
  SPEAKER_02: That would be a very Walter White thing.
• 48:23
  SPEAKER_01: Then he'll zoom out and his wife was involved the whole time.
• 48:27
  SPEAKER_02: I think I think that I think that every with Walter White, he he will every once in a while blow this thing up.
• 48:34
  SPEAKER_02: But I think like the other half of the time, this thing just just murders him because he's just a dude still.
• 48:40
  SPEAKER_02: He's just a dude.
• 48:44
  SPEAKER_02: Remember, he's a master manipulator.
• 48:45
  SPEAKER_02: That's what everyone Yeah, the Demigorn's not interested.
• 48:48
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he does have the power of of meth and explosions, but I just it's not consistent.
• 48:55
  SPEAKER_04: But see, the other thing with the demigord too was it wasn't like it was tactical.
• 48:59
  SPEAKER_04: It's not like it's oh I'm focused on Walter White, so I'm gonna get Walter White when someone tells him to.
• 49:08
  SPEAKER_02: Like it's but when it showed up, it was carnage, either way.
• 49:11
  SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
• 49:12
  SPEAKER_02: It was like total carnage that it tore through like dozens of armed adults who were trained to like murder things.
• 49:20
  SPEAKER_02: Well, they took the six-week course.
• 49:23
  SPEAKER_04: Exactly.
• 49:25
  SPEAKER_04: Walter White didn't even take that course.
• 49:27
  SPEAKER_04: A day?
• 49:28
  SPEAKER_04: Like you're we're like Dimigorn, you have a day to kill Walter White.
• 49:31
  SPEAKER_04: He's not gonna care.
• 49:35
  SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, I think it's gonna feel compelled.
• 49:38
  SPEAKER_01: I'd be willing to stay to draw.
• 49:42
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 49:42
  SPEAKER_01: But leaning closer, a little closer towards Walter.
• 49:46
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, but uh, but I I I could accept a draw.
• 49:49
  SPEAKER_02: I think we should draw here.
• 49:50
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think Walter White consistently takes this.
• 49:53
  SPEAKER_02: I think it's very inconsistent.
• 49:54
  SPEAKER_02: His his ability to to achieve his goals is incredibly inconsistent.
• 49:59
  SPEAKER_02: But the demigorgon is also mindless slaughter.
• 50:01
  SPEAKER_02: So it's it's a weird, they're both incredibly inconsistent when one-on-one.
• 50:06
  SPEAKER_01: Well, we're right now then, so it's coming back to the guest.
• 50:09
  SPEAKER_01: Trey, you have two neutral votes who are saying draw, so your vote could potentially just make or break this thing.
• 50:16
  SPEAKER_01: What happens?
• 50:17
  SPEAKER_01: Draw Walter White or the Demigorgon.
• 50:21
  SPEAKER_04: You know what?
• 50:22
  SPEAKER_04: For what both arguments presented, even though I am in love with Mefhead Batman, I feel like that character should be done.
• 50:40
  SPEAKER_02: He keeps taking apart his belt and putting it back together.
• 50:44
  SPEAKER_02: Tiny little screwdriver.
• 50:47
  SPEAKER_02: Middle of the night and one lamp pointed down on it.
• 50:51
  SPEAKER_03: Oh man.
• 50:52
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, I feel like, you know what?
• 50:55
  SPEAKER_04: It could be a draw.
• 50:56
  SPEAKER_04: Because yeah, Demi Gordon wouldn't stay on task enough.
• 51:00
  SPEAKER_04: And I would love, I feel like a meth lab explosion could do it, but uh it's he yeah, Walter wasn't consistent enough to actually like do it by himself, take someone out.
• 51:13
  SPEAKER_04: So yeah, a draw works here.
• 51:17
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 51:17
  SPEAKER_01: Well, that moves us into round three.
• 51:20
  SPEAKER_01: Right now, we're all tied up and can go.
• 51:22
  SPEAKER_01: Well, right now Demi Gorgon is in the lead, but we'll see what happens.
• 51:25
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we'll see what happens here.
• 51:27
  SPEAKER_01: Maybe we can call this whole thing a tie at this point.
• 51:30
  SPEAKER_04: But um Meth head Batman will kill anybody.
• 51:33
  SPEAKER_04: I'm oh yeah, without that.
• 51:35
  SPEAKER_01: I would just like to see if like Alfred's still there and it just breaks his heart.
• 51:44
  SPEAKER_03: Like, please, Mr.
• 51:46
  SPEAKER_04: Joker comes Joker, Joker's the one who gives him his first dose.
• 51:53
  SPEAKER_04: Gotcha.
• 51:56
  SPEAKER_01: Who would have thought?
• 51:59
  SPEAKER_01: This is what you need.
• 52:01
  SPEAKER_01: The first taste is always free.
• 52:06
  SPEAKER_01: Oh shit.
• 52:07
  SPEAKER_01: All right, so round three, it's the same thing as round two, except this time they get to bring a friend.
• 52:11
  SPEAKER_01: Trey, what happens?
• 52:13
  SPEAKER_04: All right, round three, because Walter White actually has people now, which means plot is in place.
• 52:20
  SPEAKER_04: I feel like Walter White will take it convincingly.
• 52:24
  SPEAKER_04: Demon Gordon doesn't have anybody, for one, not his side, so he's pretty much by himself all three rounds.
• 52:31
  SPEAKER_04: Walter White will have plot.
• 52:33
  SPEAKER_04: People, if I include people, um I um we're drawing the blank.
• 52:39
  SPEAKER_04: What was his um assistant?
• 52:43
  SPEAKER_04: Drugie said bitch all the time.
• 52:45
  SPEAKER_04: That's all I remember.
• 52:46
  SPEAKER_04: Jesse.
• 52:47
  SPEAKER_04: Jesse, that's it.
• 52:48
  SPEAKER_04: A new star with the J.
• 52:49
  SPEAKER_02: Jesse.
• 52:50
  SPEAKER_02: He did say bitch a lot.
• 52:53
  SPEAKER_02: He said bitch so many times in that series, bitch.
• 52:59
  SPEAKER_02: What's your vote, bitch?
• 53:02
  SPEAKER_04: I'm feeling like with people, more assistance, weapons, and plot, Walter White will take the demi Gordon out.
• 53:13
  SPEAKER_04: In the series, we've seen the demi Gordon is not, couldn't take his out.
• 53:20
  SPEAKER_04: Um, couldn't take a group of people out when they were focused on taking him out.
• 53:26
  SPEAKER_04: And that's what Walter White's whole series was was people, him taking people out.
• 53:36
  SPEAKER_03: All right, well, James Mitch.
• 53:40
  SPEAKER_02: What happens?
• 53:42
  SPEAKER_02: So here's the thing.
• 53:44
  SPEAKER_02: No, sorry if I'm gonna spoil this, but Stranger Things Season 4 has been out for a while.
• 53:48
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's spoiling that that port there's we find out that the demigor is just one thing of like many things.
• 53:56
  SPEAKER_02: Like, there's a lot of demigorgons on the other side of that portal, and things that are even bigger and scarier.
• 54:03
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so I'd say demigorgon would bring like a kaiju, basically.
• 54:09
  SPEAKER_02: Like, because he can do like they that exists over there.
• 54:13
  SPEAKER_01: You're talking about that bald Canadian kid?
• 54:15
  SPEAKER_01: The bald Canadian kid, what?
• 54:17
  SPEAKER_04: Caillou?
• 54:24
  SPEAKER_02: Caillou comes out of the has a good hearted child that he's gonna be able to use the weapon.
• 54:36
  SPEAKER_04: One cancer patient to another.
• 54:40
  SPEAKER_01: Dude, if you Google him, he doesn't have cancer.
• 54:42
  SPEAKER_01: It was just a weird choice.
• 54:44
  SPEAKER_04: Nah, nah, it's not what they use.
• 54:47
  SPEAKER_01: He's got that little roller thing that they sell late at nights with the hot wheels on it and shaves your head.
• 54:53
  SPEAKER_04: You don't start off with a kid like that and he does not have cancer.
• 54:58
  SPEAKER_04: That was the idea.
• 54:59
  SPEAKER_04: They backtracked.
• 55:01
  SPEAKER_01: Dude, his dad wears red shoes.
• 55:06
  SPEAKER_01: So that's what I would say.
• 55:07
  SPEAKER_01: I said Demi Gorgon brings Caillou's dad's red shoes.
• 55:12
  SPEAKER_02: So he brings a giant monster.
• 55:14
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 55:15
  SPEAKER_04: With James's argument, though, because I I will say here and be honest, I didn't watch Stranger Things season four.
• 55:23
  SPEAKER_04: But has he ever brought out assistance?
• 55:28
  SPEAKER_04: Like there's more monsters, yes.
• 55:30
  SPEAKER_04: But was that ever the case?
• 55:33
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they mean I see the little world where there's a bunch of them.
• 55:36
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they a bunch of them come into our world.
• 55:38
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 55:39
  SPEAKER_02: And uh and there's a bigger thing.
• 55:41
  SPEAKER_02: There's a bigger thing that wants to come through.
• 55:43
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 55:43
  SPEAKER_02: Did they win though?
• 55:45
  SPEAKER_02: Did the people win?
• 55:46
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, I think that they I think that the season left it in contention.
• 55:52
  SPEAKER_02: I think one of the demigorgons got away.
• 55:54
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, it was one of those things.
• 55:55
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 55:56
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 55:57
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 55:57
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, they have to make season five.
• 55:59
  SPEAKER_04: That's why I didn't watch season four.
• 56:01
  SPEAKER_04: It was one of those things.
• 56:03
  SPEAKER_01: Well, oh I would offer one thing here that maybe we'll fix it right away.
• 56:07
  SPEAKER_01: So there's an alternate ending to Walter White, to uh his show.
• 56:12
  SPEAKER_01: What the fuck's the name of his show?
• 56:15
  SPEAKER_01: Breaking Bad.
• 56:15
  SPEAKER_01: Breaking Bad?
• 56:16
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, there was an alternate ending to Breaking Bad where um so it gets all the way up to the end, and you can YouTube this.
• 56:23
  SPEAKER_01: It's actually there.
• 56:24
  SPEAKER_01: It's an alternate ending where they're getting all the way up to the end, everything's about to go down just like it did, but then all of a sudden Hal from Malcolm in the Middle wakes up and he wakes up Lois and he says, I had the craziest dream.
• 56:37
  SPEAKER_01: I was selling meth and I had cancer.
• 56:39
  SPEAKER_01: So for that, because they exist within they have a dream door to each other, I think Hal's gonna bring Lois, Malcolm, or Dewey.
• 56:50
  SPEAKER_01: And well, if he brings Dewey, Demi Gorgon's fucked.
• 56:55
  SPEAKER_01: He's a kid, and he's a super intelligent kid skilled at taking out anything in his way.
• 57:02
  SPEAKER_01: And I think Dewey is uh he is a child, you're right.
• 57:06
  SPEAKER_01: Damn, he is a child.
• 57:07
  SPEAKER_02: It hasn't killed a child, like it didn't end up killing that original kid.
• 57:12
  SPEAKER_02: That original kid survived.
• 57:13
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and and Dewey is infinitely more powerful than all the kids of Brave.
• 57:17
  SPEAKER_04: That's true of fucking the Demi Gorgon's greatest weakness, actually.
• 57:22
  SPEAKER_02: Is children.
• 57:24
  SPEAKER_02: Uh uh children that won't quit.
• 57:27
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 57:27
  SPEAKER_01: Well, you know the scenes in Malcolm the Middle where Hal and Dewey like make a deal and then Dewey like gets him out of it.
• 57:34
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think we'll see Dewey get Walter White out of this.
• 57:39
  SPEAKER_04: It would be all three of them, actually, because technically all three of them were kids in the sense of children.
• 57:45
  SPEAKER_04: Reese, Malcolm, and Dewey.
• 57:47
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 57:48
  SPEAKER_04: Would be they all three would work too.
• 57:52
  SPEAKER_04: In fact, I think those three would have been better than the group in Stranger Things.
• 57:58
  SPEAKER_04: Without a doubt.
• 57:58
  SPEAKER_04: It would have been solved in one episode.
• 58:00
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 58:01
  SPEAKER_02: Without a doubt.
• 58:03
  SPEAKER_02: Done by the end of the episode.
• 58:04
  SPEAKER_01: With Reese holding them back.
• 58:08
  SPEAKER_01: I wouldn't, I think no problem.
• 58:09
  SPEAKER_01: And then eventually Francis would like show up and that'd be wrap.
• 58:14
  SPEAKER_04: And then Methhead Batman was swooping at the end.
• 58:18
  SPEAKER_01: Well, then let's bring it back around.
• 58:20
  SPEAKER_04: Trey, final thoughts in the vote.
• 58:22
  SPEAKER_04: The moment you bring Malcolm in the Mills University.
• 58:27
  SPEAKER_04: I did see that big that clip you're saying on YouTube.
• 58:29
  SPEAKER_04: I did see that.
• 58:30
  SPEAKER_04: I love Brian Cranston and his stuff.
• 58:32
  SPEAKER_04: I even seen this one when he was Zor, yeah, because he voiced Zordon, so he did his.
• 58:50
  SPEAKER_04: Short on time.
• 58:51
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I would give it to.
• 58:52
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, either way, he wins then.
• 58:54
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, like he will he wins enough with Dewey Malcolm and Reese.
• 58:58
  SPEAKER_04: So I would bring Walter White.
• 59:01
  SPEAKER_02: So we got one for Walter White, James.
• 59:05
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, when you get when you bring the children into it, it's thematically the Demi Gorgon's problem.
• 59:13
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 59:13
  SPEAKER_02: Like there was all there was like this huge monster.
• 59:16
  SPEAKER_02: Like there was a huge monster in the fourth season, like really gigantic.
• 59:20
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 59:20
  SPEAKER_02: And it like tossed a car and shit.
• 59:22
  SPEAKER_02: It was huge.
• 59:24
  SPEAKER_02: And it was still all you needed was children.
• 59:28
  SPEAKER_01: That's all I get.
• 59:30
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 59:31
  SPEAKER_02: If as soon as he gets to bring a child in, that's it.
• 59:34
  SPEAKER_02: Even if he brought his kid.
• 59:36
  SPEAKER_02: His own child and holds it like his shit.
• 59:44
  SPEAKER_02: His child's even more likely to work because his child is also disabled.
• 59:50
  SPEAKER_04: Oh my god.
• 59:51
  SPEAKER_04: I was thinking about that, but I was like, man, his child's kind of older.
• 59:55
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know if it will work, but technically, I guess he's younger.
• 59:58
  SPEAKER_02: He was in the early seasons, he was younger.
• 1:00:00
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 1:00:00
  SPEAKER_02: I know.
• 1:00:00
  SPEAKER_02: This one's like the strongest.
• 1:00:02
  SPEAKER_02: The strongest Walter White is when he has a child.
• 1:00:06
  SPEAKER_01: All right.
• 1:00:08
  SPEAKER_01: I think I'm hearing this correctly.
• 1:00:09
  SPEAKER_01: I think that Walter White's taking round three.
• 1:00:11
  SPEAKER_04: Round three is white.
• 1:00:13
  SPEAKER_04: All right.
• 1:00:14
  SPEAKER_01: So this ends in a tie.
• 1:00:16
  SPEAKER_01: The Demi Gorgon of Stranger Things ties with Walter White of Breaking Bed.
• 1:00:21
  SPEAKER_01: So congratulations to both of them.
• 1:00:24
  SPEAKER_01: There you have it, folks.
• 1:00:26
  SPEAKER_01: So before we wrap this up, because we have the band back together, because we had a tie, because it was the first time James remembered who the fuck was fighting.
• 1:00:32
  SPEAKER_01: I think that ended in a tie.
• 1:00:34
  SPEAKER_01: And it ended in a tie.
• 1:00:35
  SPEAKER_01: This has been a historic episode.
• 1:00:37
  SPEAKER_02: I gotta forget the names so we can have some a little resolution.
• 1:00:41
  SPEAKER_01: This has been a historic episode of High and Dry.
• 1:00:43
  SPEAKER_01: And for that, it's time for one more hit, one more shot.
• 1:00:46
  SPEAKER_04: One more hit, one more shot.
• 1:00:47
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, I cop right.
• 1:00:49
  SPEAKER_04: No one out here listening.
• 1:00:53
  SPEAKER_04: That is implied.
• 1:00:54
  SPEAKER_02: I Google it, there is no copyright.
• 1:00:56
  SPEAKER_04: I will find you if you take meth head Batman away from me.
• 1:01:03
  SPEAKER_01: So here's to all that nonsense, and here's to meth head Batman.
• 1:01:07
  SPEAKER_01: Cheers.
• 1:01:08
  SPEAKER_01: Cheers.
