• 0:21
  a little sashwat penis inside of you
• 0:24
  multiple nerdgasm your guide to all things
• 0:30
  nerdy so it's that time of year
• 0:35
  again sorry to interrupt you Luke sorry no sorry what time of year is
• 0:41
  it um that time of year that that jerk flies around the world and just snobs me
• 0:47
  doesn't give me anything Richard Branson yeah he will not return my calls
• 0:53
  just what I just want just want a I want a hug is that too much to ask from
• 0:58
  Richard Branson I can think of people I'd want to hug more or at least sooner than Richard
• 1:05
  Branson I'd want a birthday check from Richard Branson maybe yeah oh a
• 1:09
  Christmas check really a Christmas check yeah it's probably more appropriate I
• 1:12
  don't want to wait 6 months yeah I need cash now Ricky
• 1:17
  Branson come on mate yeah and if he's a listener which he probably is I'm sure
• 1:21
  he is um Richard head on over to patreon.com multip
• 1:26
  nerdgasm cuz uh we know you're good for it I think we should put put a special
• 1:30
  tiar on patreon that if you're Richard Branson you don't even need to donate
• 1:35
  money you can if you want but if you donate three tickets onto the Virgin
• 1:42
  Galactic flight that's cool too yes yep yeah you know and we'll do something
• 1:47
  special we'll do a podcast in space we'll be the first podcast from space I
• 1:52
  will add a Richard Branson tier to the patreon uh with some some ridiculous
• 1:58
  amount with yeah and and the the goal what do you call them the
• 2:03
  the Milestone will be that we go to space yeah I'll do a podcast from space
• 2:10
  from space y all right I think that only cost probably about
• 2:14
  750,000 us not for him he can just give us free tickets he doesn't have to pay
• 2:21
  no I'm serious I will add a tier to the patreon that says if we make no I'm
• 2:25
  [ __ ] serious too I want to go to space if we make 750,00
• 2:30
  ,000 like for one episode all right make that even if it's not continuous right
• 2:36
  no yeah one one episode right we get that much money we'll we'll record a
• 2:41
  [ __ ] episode in space yeah done yeah yep all right patreon.com multip
• 2:47
  nerdgasm tell your friends otherwise it's not going to happen so I think at
• 2:51
  this stage we get about $12 an episode
• 2:54
  from yeah great patreon supporters so
• 2:58
  that's just 600 something thousand ago
• 3:02
  yep and that's not to Discount the um the money that we do get we really
• 3:06
  appreciate it it helps pay for the the show really we don't um it basically
• 3:10
  means that for the first time ever we're not running it quite so much of a loss
• 3:14
  that's right and paid off I will say this if you've been a listener regularly
• 3:19
  to this podcast you'll notice that since we started making that tiny bit of money
• 3:22
  per episode we have been much more diligent about recording yep and uh and
• 3:27
  the quality of things has improved cuz we've got these new microphones and you
• 3:30
  know yeah so it's your podcast you paid for it yep and one of the other tiers
• 3:35
  we've got on there already is to do uh to do video and stuff so for some reason
• 3:39
  you want to see what we look like well you can do that on the Instagram multiple
• 3:42
  nasm.com multip nasm.com instagram.com multipl nerdgasm
• 3:47
  rather uh you can see what we look like yeah definitely check it our beards yeah
• 3:52
  there's going to be some new stuff going up yeah yeah not multile nerd Gaz and beard
• 3:58
  off I've already won but yeah you have we can't compete with you but uh today I
• 4:04
  was in the supermarket and I was walking past one of those little booths where
• 4:08
  somebody merchandises a product I was like oh do you want to try this and I
• 4:12
  looked around and it was razors and I
• 4:14
  was like no bro I don't he fair enough I
• 4:19
  like that we all have beards yeah it's good I don't know why am me cuz when I
• 4:23
  don't have a beard it's like son is your dad home and when I do have a beard it's
• 4:27
  like sir what can I do to help you yeah every time I shave it off I'm like
• 4:33
  why did you do that and then and I forget and I forget I go oh I'm might to
• 4:38
  what I look like without a beard again oh that's right not as good yeah yeah
• 4:42
  that's exactly what happens to me I'm like maybe I'll be happier without it no
• 4:47
  no I'm not no and as soon as I shave it off I remember that this always happens
• 4:52
  or I shave it off just when a new series of Vikings starts and then I just feel
• 4:57
  like much less of a man I thought about shaving mine off a few weeks ago Luke I
• 5:02
  don't I I mean I I vaguely remember what you look like without a beard but it's
• 5:06
  been a very long time well I've always tend to have some sort of facial hair
• 5:11
  yes and always do silly things with it that's true may you had mutton chops and
• 5:15
  a mustache for a while that was a great era I apologize cuz I think I was the
• 5:19
  one who made him shave that for a movie yeah you did oh yeah it was really good
• 5:25
  at time the chops where I wanted it mustache I had the
• 5:28
  Mohawk yeah get rid of it all you know I he probably could have kept that and
• 5:32
  just shaved the head it would it would have been it would have been fine would
• 5:36
  have been disturbing which was the goal the uh the lead character in that film
• 5:42
  wouldn't shave his [ __ ] head day so you know I shaved mine for that film you
• 5:47
  did everyone shaved their head for that film except for the lead actor yeah who
• 5:53
  will remain anonymous I also remember we filmed this
• 5:57
  throwaway scene that was never going to be part of the mov
• 6:00
  movie I don't know what you're talking about Luke I still don't know why I
• 6:04
  agreed to even film the scene even if it was just for us it's still weird
• 6:08
  probably weirder you will learn the hard
• 6:12
  way that when I say this is just for us it'll probably end up
• 6:19
  in yeah I remember Dave did a sexy dance once and I filmed it and that went into
• 6:25
  every film every trailer forever after that I've seen it yep
• 6:32
  instagram.com multip nerdgasm yeah oh we should why
• 6:38
  not so well Speaking of beards which we were uh somebody who's got a beard is
• 6:42
  Santa Claus and that that brings us back to the fact that it's the Christmas
• 6:47
  episode so merry Christmas everybody um you guys got any special plans for
• 6:52
  Christmas I'm working that's special yep yeah you're
• 6:57

• 7:04
  gamer score on the Xbox ah right okay
• 7:08
  okay that's work is it yeah it's that's hard work sure right but you can do that
• 7:15
  from home I assume yes and I can also do it when I'm out and about as well oh
• 7:20
  yeah right with your windows [ __ ] phone yes okay all right but you're you're
• 7:26
  actually you're straight up working Christmas day are you Dan no for God no
• 7:30
  nothing nothing will be open here what about you m I'm taking some time off
• 7:35
  yeah I feel like it was trying to fish for that don't you luk yeah no no no no
• 7:39
  I wasn't um we've talked in the past about the kinds of things people do at
• 7:42
  Christmas um and uh here in Australia and I I guess in in probably in
• 7:47
  Singapore as well Dan uh it's a fairly christian-based
• 7:53
  uh Christmas well they do put the Christ in Christmas right and so we don't we
• 7:58
  don't have any particular well I mean we do have weird Traditions but they're the
• 8:01
  same weird Traditions that most of our listeners probably have and so we don't
• 8:04
  find them that unusual but we we've in the past talked about some Christmas
• 8:09
  traditions from around the world that we found amusing or a bit unusual yeah
• 8:15
  that's true and um we've we've talked about uh Krampus before I believe he's
• 8:20
  quite famous now he is cu he's in a scary movie because once again Hollywood
• 8:25
  listened to the podcast and uh developed a film from uh from what we said there's
• 8:32
  a couple of others that uh we've talked about in the past there's um kago kako
• 8:38
  however you pronounce it yeah I'm watching that video right now so just uh
• 8:44
  just to recap kago is a pooping
• 8:48
  Christmas log yeah exactly yeah that you hit with a stick that's right it's he's
• 8:55
  from Catalonia which is um which is Spain I believe mhm and and um he uh he
• 9:01
  a little log he starts out quite small and and they pop some legs on him some
• 9:05
  little wooden legs and and he kind of sits up and they draw a face on him uh
• 9:08
  he pops up on the 8th of December and as it approaches Christmas uh the kids feed
• 9:13
  him um every night and then the parents are supposed to he grows right so the
• 9:19
  you know behind the scenes the parents kind of swap him out oh okay with with
• 9:22
  ever growing size logs um and then that
• 9:26
  continues up until Christmas uh when the they beat him repeatedly with sticks
• 9:31
  until he shits out presents actually I'm I'm quite liking
• 9:37
  this yeah and he's called kaga which means um poop kaga is is pronounced Kaka
• 9:43
  and it means poop sorry so it's Kaka Tio uh and Tio means tree trunk or Uncle so
• 9:50
  he basically pretty much [ __ ] Uncle yeah shitty his shitty uncle or pooping
• 9:55
  tree uh one of those two right uh and he has a little song
• 9:59
  little song uh that the children sing while they hit him with a stick uh I'm
• 10:03
  not going to sing it in in Catalan because I don't know how but I will sing
• 10:07
  it in I I'll I can sing it in English if you want you want me to sing it yeah
• 10:11
  yeah yes please definitely otherwise we won't know well I could just I could
• 10:15
  just read it or I can sing it but I'll trying sing it sing it yeah you need to
• 10:18
  sing it [ __ ] Log [ __ ] noua hazelnuts and
• 10:22
  M cheese if you don't [ __ ] well I'll hit you with a stick [ __ ] log
• 10:29
  [Laughter] that's uh Shakespeare isn't it I think
• 10:35
  so yeah and that's uh that's the his little uh theme song If you don't [ __ ]
• 10:40
  well I'll hit you with a stick yeah so that's how my parents ptty trained me
• 10:44
  yeah in there so yeah they all be with a stick and then the parents go all right
• 10:49
  go into the next room and pray and maybe he'll [ __ ] out some presents now that
• 10:52
  you've beaten the the [ __ ] out of him and so the kids go in the other room and
• 10:56
  uh the parents take the opportunity to uh pop a bunch of presents uh out of out
• 11:02
  of his butt so what happens if he does [ __ ] well if you've got say a lean year
• 11:06
  and you don't want to buy your kids any presents you can go no he's perfectly
• 11:10
  regular kids I'm sorry there'll be no hitting him with a stick this year he's
• 11:14
  just [ __ ] out more more wood in fact I think he's I think he's giving
• 11:20
  birth to a Shrubbery it's it's a it's a
• 11:24
  woman what what well giving birth oh you
• 11:30
  the logs are okay right so the fully the fully grown log is about 30 cm long uh
• 11:37
  and he's got a little red sock hat to enhance his appearance yeah I'm I'm
• 11:41
  about 30 30 cm long fully grown with a little sock hat apparently these are recent
• 11:47
  additions in the olden days uh he was just a piece of wood
• 11:53
  oh how did we live Matt how did we live in those times I know yeah so that's one
• 11:59
  tradition and another one that is uh is one of my favorites um is the U Lads from
• 12:06
  Iceland um we've talked about them before and I'm going to request actually
• 12:09
  if you've clicked open the article um can we just play a quick little game
• 12:12
  where I I'll tell you the name there's 12 U lads who visit the people of
• 12:16
  Iceland this is the one that steals one steals sausages and one y I'm going to
• 12:20
  read out I'm going to read out their names right I'll go through all of them
• 12:23
  and you tell me what you think they do so so basically these these your lads
• 12:29
  just from memory yeah or just based on the name the names are quite descriptive
• 12:32
  so you can just kind of run with it and see what see what you can come up with
• 12:35
  so these guys are kind of uh Ule Lads they're called I think they're kind of
• 12:39
  old men who who come to town during the last 13 days before Christmas like one
• 12:44
  night after the other they all sharp one after the other unlucky and they all do
• 12:48
  a certain thing so the first one he arrives on December 12th and his name is
• 12:55
  sheep coat
• 12:57
  Claude she's coat CLA sheep coat Cloud yeah there must be something about
• 13:03
  stealing wool knowing these guys mhm all right we'll keep it quick uh he harasses
• 13:10
  sheep but he is impaired by his stiff peg legs oh right of course makes sense
• 13:16
  yeah yeah the devil's in the details there isn't it that's right so on
• 13:20
  December 13th they visited by Gully gwk what do you think I'll just quickly
• 13:25
  point out that it is December 13th right now yep right well so tonight we'll be
• 13:31
  visited by Gully gork that's right uh he watches you from a from a
• 13:37
  ditch very close very close he hides in gullies waiting for an opportunity to
• 13:44
  sneak into your Cow Shed and steal your milk a of course it's so specific I know
• 13:50
  that's why I love these so much all right December 14th stubby shows up he
• 13:56
  brings me a beer oh stubbo in really little [Laughter]
• 14:02
  shorts uh I think I think stubby would be your favorite Dan if that's that's a
• 14:06
  bit of a clue yeah well I mean stubby a
• 14:12
  dwarf he is abnormally short that is the description that is great he's he's
• 14:17
  abnormally short and he steals pans to eat the crusts that have been left on
• 14:21
  them wow who's leaving their crusts on a
• 14:25
  pan honestly I don't know um December
• 14:30
  15th this one's fairly fairly obvious uh spoon
• 14:37
  liquor that was your nickname in high school wasn't it Matt no ah yeah spoon
• 14:43
  spoon yeah sure we'll go with that
• 14:46
  yep um December 16th we've got pot
• 14:50
  scraper yep just comes in and does your washing up does he Bo he comes in and
• 14:55
  steals the leftovers out of your pots okay and then December 17th we've got Bowl
• 15:02
  liquor I I assume it's bowl and not bow they just having trouble with names at this
• 15:08
  point toilet bowl would be worse than any other Bowl I'd say yeah and one one
• 15:14
  guy could have done all this stuff could have covered all these
• 15:18
  C cuz cuz you've got you got um bloody uh what's his name Stubby's coming in
• 15:25
  and he's like oh D that pot's got got quite a lot of uh quite a lot of you
• 15:29

• 15:36
  know yeah I mean it's not my job mate um December 18th we've got door
• 15:42
  Slammer um he uh he he comes and slams The Doors yeah what a [ __ ] in the middle
• 15:49
  of the night yeah I'm just here to uh slam the doors don't mind me and then
• 15:53
  I'll be off don't mind me earning me cash is that code for something
• 15:59
  though maybe it is luk okay he's slamming doors if you know what I
• 16:05
  mean slamming doors yeah December 19th we've got SK uh
• 16:12
  Sky gobler I assume is it pronounced Sky it is a um an Icelandic dairy product
• 16:18
  which is uh like strained yogurt apparently
• 16:23
  right I guess he just Gobles it yeah he just loves it I don't know he doesn't I
• 16:27
  mean I don't know if he does anything particular I except turn up and talk
• 16:30
  about it maybe yeah right just just comes and just presents a paper on his
• 16:35
  love of yo Conny Sky no I want to talk about Sky I tell you what though it's a
• 16:41
  great it's a great food product here let me share some facts with
• 16:46
  you it's h it's a bit like strained yogurt that's the only fact I've
• 16:50
  got Fact one strange yogurt Fact Two it's
• 16:55
  delicious yeah this one's a bit creepy we've got uh December 20 we've got
• 16:59
  sausage swiper yeah um that's a sex thing yeah well it's just he steals
• 17:06
  sausages that are being smoked but it's just the description and also it says he hides in
• 17:13
  the rafters so it's it's just creepy that he's there the he's there all the
• 17:17
  time in the rafters waiting to to waiting to smoke some sausage it's there
• 17:22
  the whole time and then just one day a year he comes down and gets the sausages
• 17:26
  that's right yeah yeah it's weird at least the other rest to go home every other day
• 17:31
  mhm yeah December 2 21st window peeper
• 17:36
  yep that's not I guess that's self-explanatory mhm the one day year
• 17:41
  you're allowed to go poep through people's windows and you can't get in
• 17:44
  trouble for it well he he's I think he would because he's his goal is literally
• 17:50
  to find things to steal it's it is very specific it says a Voyer who would look
• 17:54
  through windows in search of things to
• 17:56
  steal so um December 22nd doorway
• 18:03
  sniffer what now if that's not a sex thing then I'll eat my hat you
• 18:09
  know he uh he has an abnormally large nose and an acute sense of smell which
• 18:15
  uses to he uses to locate luab which uh
• 18:21
  is leaf bread um sometimes called snowflake bread which is a traditional
• 18:26
  Icelandic bread that is often eaten at Christmas so uh he he's he's into
• 18:32
  that uh on the December 23rd uh probably the most terrifyingly named um your lad
• 18:39
  meat hook rocks up Jesus yeah yep uh and that's the vain from I Know What You Did
• 18:45
  Last Summer that's right and uh it'll be probably be a bit of a surprise to learn
• 18:50
  that he uses his hook to steal meat right that's actually the the better of
• 18:56
  several scenarios it could have been
• 19:00
  true true and December 24th candle
• 19:04
  stealer um now I mean that sounds quite obvious but it does have a a more
• 19:11
  Sinister um angle on it because He follows children in order to steal their
• 19:15
  candles right so that's also euphemism is what why kids walking around with
• 19:19
  candles and not only that um it makes a point of mentioning that back in the
• 19:23
  back in olden times uh the candles would have been made of Tallow and were edible
• 19:27
  and he steals the children follows the children to steal their candles to eat
• 19:30
  the candles M which is just just very creepy really yeah that is I I hope he
• 19:36
  eats them in front of the kids and makes eye contact while he does
• 19:39
  it so strange just for the ultimate creep Factor
• 19:46
  yeah so they're the yads that's one of my favorite uh Christmas tradition I
• 19:50
  know we've talked about on the podcast before years ago Matt we needed a
• 19:53
  refresher no exactly exactly but yeah I mean we we've forgotten about them I
• 19:57
  mean the the that our recordings were back then I'm pretty sure that even the
• 20:01
  people that did hear it didn't really get all that information yeah yeah it
• 20:06
  was unintelligible so that's your Lads and one other Christmas tradition that
• 20:09
  we do mention every year and so uh almost certainly we've talked about it
• 20:13
  in more recent times uh is a little tradition from Holland and and this has
• 20:18
  got to be our personal favorite surely surely if we're if we're playing favorites this is
• 20:23
  it yeah yeah I I uh I think it is definitely the one talking the most and
• 20:29
  and this one has become quite famous of late um and um I mean we don't talk
• 20:35
  about too much cuz we do talk about we we're going to cut now to uh we did an
• 20:38
  interview um we've had our first guest on the show yeah we did we did we
• 20:42
  interviewed a gentleman from Holland JP and uh and he he filled Us in on zat
• 20:48
  Pete Black Pete zat Pete the uh zat Pete
• 20:53
  the the s's black slave yeah yeah yeah that's although as
• 20:59
  we discovered there's more to it maybe not just being a black
• 21:03
  slave so yeah we we'll say no more now we'll cut straight to the interview and
• 21:08
  uh listeners you maybe you'll learn something CU cuz we we maybe did so Matt why don't you
• 21:14
  introduce this man to go by JP we just introduce JP do you want a
• 21:19
  pseudonym no it's JP JP it's fine JP isn't a pseudonym it says JP on your
• 21:25
  birth certificate yeah it does no it doesn't
• 21:29
  yeah no it's actually julier but try to pronounce that
• 21:34
  Pudo JP it is yeah JP is fine all
• 21:41
  right all right we're joined Now by JP who is uh you're an official
• 21:47
  representative of of the Netherlands is that that is that accurate sort of half
• 21:53
  halfway through they've sent you over here you know as a kind of a a peace offering yeah
• 21:59
  M suppose yeah well before we jump into the specifics can I ask a question that
• 22:04
  we've raised on this podcast before M that perhaps you can answer JP
• 22:09
  yeah so the question is it's the Netherland but it's also Holland and
• 22:16
  you're the Dutch yeah can you explain that to me we like variation yeah okay
• 22:21
  that's cool it's actually very simple so you know how like Australia has States
• 22:26
  uhhuh we have provinces what we call them provinces M and two of our
• 22:30
  provinces which are probably the most densely area uh populated provinces
• 22:35
  they're called North and South Holland so probably when people go abroad they
• 22:40
  and they they have like this I don't know patriotism or national nationalism
• 22:43
  kind of thing they like uh I'm from Netherlands but I'm from like North or
• 22:47
  South Holland but you know when you go abroad and you don't speak the language
• 22:51
  and they're crappy English it's like can I say crappy yeah yeah okay you can say
• 22:56
  whatever you can say a lot words oh yeah but uh yeah okay no so basically cuz
• 23:01
  they hail from The Province that's north of South Holland it like transferred
• 23:06
  into just Holland and it's like the tourist name because I mean say the
• 23:10
  Netherlands or Holland yeah right and yeah what you're saying is there's no
• 23:15
  actual place called Holland no it's north and south I mean probably there's
• 23:19
  like a small town somewhere called Holland but it's Holland days yeah is
• 23:24
  that from Holland Holland days from Holland the sauce you mean yeah yeah I
• 23:27
  think so h I mean why would genius genius there's a Holland Village here in
• 23:32
  Singapore is there yeah interesting I think at some point there must have been
• 23:36
  Dutch people there now it's just hipsters hipster Dutch the main reason
• 23:42
  that we've asked you on is because we do W second part of that question why are
• 23:47
  they the Dutch then why aren't they nees actually I found some pictures on like
• 23:52
  uh what's it called uh Reddit and stuff or what those like damn law saying you
• 23:57
  can actually select the language uh netherlandic right uhhuh so I don't know
• 24:02
  if that's an actual thing but if you ask me it's dutch because I don't because
• 24:08
  because it is yeah yeah it's always been like that I think I
• 24:12
  suppose and I don't really I just normally I have to explain like this is
• 24:17
  Holland is nland that's the same I I don't think I've ever had to explain
• 24:21
  this question in such detail so sorry it's all right I'm not prepared on that
• 24:25
  one he's just been studying Christmas traditions we'll have you back on next
• 24:29
  Christmas and we'd expect a uh a fully flesh that answer I'll try to make it
• 24:34
  what's When's the national holiday for the Netherlands we'll have you on then
• 24:38
  mhm did you have like a national holiday we can celebrate that by having an
• 24:42
  in-depth discussion of the formation of the of your country yeah that's what the
• 24:46
  Holland days are on prin it's basically says little prin day little Prince's day
• 24:53
  yeah and it's um the queen or actually no the king now they have uh what they call
• 24:59
  change well or just like a new generation kind of thing oh okay that's
• 25:04
  interesting if you is that's if that's the thir thing up your mind quick but no
• 25:08
  no yeah Progressive they have like a a speech about what they're going to do
• 25:13
  for the country so maybe that's the most suitable day okay all right when's that
• 25:17
  the third Tuesday of September or something like that okay all right all
• 25:20
  right cool in all right listen just Mark that down in your di all right
• 25:24
  yep all right so every year around Christmas or at Christmas or roughly
• 25:28
  around Christmas cuz we're awful at scheduling things we talk about
• 25:32
  Christmas traditions around the world uh and one tradition that we've talked
• 25:36
  about every year since we started uh is a tradition from your country um which
• 25:41
  people over here find I mean we' think it's kind of funny um and a lot ofar
• 25:48
  yeah and a lot of people these days are very offended by it and uh and I mean
• 25:53
  you know what I mean obviously uh that's uh that's cant Claus am I saying that
• 25:58
  correctly and uh zat pet the Z pit zat pit I follow should we explain it what
• 26:05
  it looks like to us and then you can correct us is that
• 26:09
  maybe like I guess most most people when they see it right it looks like Santa
• 26:14
  Claus and and a black slave that's what most people immediately think that's
• 26:19
  what that's what I'm that's what they're looking at and when it's depicted in
• 26:21
  popular culture it's basically Santa Claus and a white dude in black face yes
• 26:27
  in servants clothes clothing that's what people think it is which we think is
• 26:33
  fantastic we think it's very funny yeah but obviously we could
• 26:39
  understandably some we're not offended by anything confus way no no cuz we're white
• 26:44
  but that's right yeah so what is the story with with with black Pete with
• 26:50
  Pete well so like you said like actually the trouble started like about 3 years
• 26:55
  ago I think but because before I was never was ever a problem but yeah about
• 27:01
  no it wasn't and about 3 years ago probably because also because social
• 27:05
  media just got bigger and bigger or more widespread so he saw more stuff on it on
• 27:10
  the internet and at they knew what you were up to yeah and then suddenly I I
• 27:15
  remember like so 3 years ago it started and then I don't know it was a year
• 27:18
  later but then the the NATO got involved
• 27:23
  Jesus really and and the the what do you call it the person in charge was a black
• 27:27
  woman yeah right that I
• 27:34
  hope but yeah so the tradition itself is actually it hails from uh turkey I
• 27:38
  believe just like tulips and windmills right which is improved a bit you
• 27:43
  improved tulips well we mass-produced them and sold them a lot yeah
• 27:48
  cool but um yeah so it's it's like it actually was a saint he actually existed
• 27:54
  and he was just very generous I suppose right and in our culture we actually
• 27:58
  sing that she from Spain by the way a slight change in origin I suppose but um
• 28:05
  yeah so it's it's it's a holidays that runs for 5 days like it starts the first of
• 28:12
  December and then up until the fourth you have like um kids put their shoe at
• 28:18
  the chimney just similar to actually to Christmas to Santa Claus right like a
• 28:21
  shoe like an actual shoe yeah yeah you put your shoe you put like carrots or
• 28:25
  candy for the horse or something to eat for the the saint mhm and then you start
• 28:30
  singing uh the the songs we have for it and the louder the better the more the
• 28:34
  better right and then every morning you come down and you have like a small
• 28:37
  present and then the fifth is actually the celebration right and it's just it's
• 28:41
  called paky aent it's um packages night right and it's like St n or St Nicholas
• 28:48
  comes by and he drops off a huge bag of just gifts and then it's just unwrapping one by
• 28:54
  one man and the thing with the the white guy in the black guy and a thing uh so
• 28:59
  he's actually white and like his beard is white cuz he's old and the black guys
• 29:04
  are like you said they're white guys made up black yeah the thing is they
• 29:10
  don't want to be black the only reason they're black is cuz they Wick their
• 29:14
  asses off and they climb down the chimney it is just charcoal it's
• 29:21
  charcoal charcoal charcoal the thing is over the years probably because of
• 29:26
  commercialization and stuff like that they just thought of okay let's just put
• 29:30
  like the black everywhere like make the whole face black wear black gloves wear
• 29:34
  like uh big socks that are black because probably if you go back into history and
• 29:38
  look at pictures I I believe they Wen not totally black like they are nowadays
• 29:44
  right so it's just something that evolve like okay let's just go full
• 29:47
  black but it's never been about wanting to be black but once you go black you
• 29:51
  never go back well they do after a shower normally but it's never been about
• 29:58
  wanting to be black it's just a a representation of like they go down the
• 30:03
  chimney and you just get dirt on your face and stuff like that yeah and I it's
• 30:07
  clear from from looking at listening to other people talk about it you know
• 30:10
  online or whatever like that it's not there's no um no intent to offend
• 30:16
  anybody or anything like that and it seems and it people genuinely seem to
• 30:20
  get upset when people suggest that it's racist and and and that it's a negative
• 30:24
  thing cuz people love this like it's it's like this day that people love like
• 30:30
  it's for just the children and everyone wants the children to have a good time
• 30:35
  yeah normally normally funny Luke doesn't it's I don't have a problem but
• 30:40
  it's actually funny you say this only happened um 3 years ago cuz only became
• 30:44
  a problem in Australia in 2009 it's only recent in Australia as well what we're
• 30:50
  not allow to wear black face yeah what do you remember when it happened in
• 30:54
  Australia was it on hey hey at Saturday when it was on hey hey Satur oh I do I
• 30:59
  remember that I remember guys dressed up as Michael Jackson They with a Jackson
• 31:03
  Drive and they're wearing black face and Harry CL Jr yeah but that's different
• 31:08
  isn't it that you actually want to be black yeah yeah that's that's true they
• 31:11
  were they were they were pretending to be to be to be black yeah yeah yeah but
• 31:17
  I mean that's I mean at a glance that's what people think is happening so yeah
• 31:21
  and then also I mean the world today is
• 31:24
  very uh how should we say stupidly PC
• 31:29
  yeah the the the police are out making sure no one's going to be offended by anything and
• 31:35
  it's you know so uh I mean would you recommend our listeners all dress up as
• 31:41
  Z Pete this Christmas and or actually is I mean it's already passed right it's oh
• 31:46
  you're right you're right see that's the thing beginning yeah see there their
• 31:50
  celebrations at the so you don't do anything around the 25th like we do we
• 31:53
  do do Christmas yeah oh so it's a different thing yeah it is yeah right we
• 31:57
  have a lot of holiday back home that's pretty awesome we even have like the
• 32:00
  celebration of the king Elvis Easter yeah he was big he was very big
• 32:07
  and then he died yeah do you actually get like you wouldn't work through most
• 32:10
  of December is that no no because even if it's holidays you just work it's it's
• 32:14
  I mean it's a celebration for the kids like they have the singing the songs
• 32:18
  during the first four days the fifth day if if it's during the week probably like
• 32:23
  the next day maybe parents have like a day off or a morning off from work but
• 32:27
  it's not like like you have something massive going on it's just the family
• 32:31
  comes together yeah you spread out the presents and by midnight you you go back
• 32:36
  home yeah right okay okay so you would say so basically every year right cuz uh
• 32:41
  since you were a child that's just a thing that happened right and there was
• 32:44
  a guy there who who was a white guy with black makeup on for for for the for the
• 32:50
  event and so you know I can see why people might be a little bit like what
• 32:55
  why is everyone questioning this now you know what I mean like because how long
• 32:58
  is it how long has it been going on like just ages like literally ages I think I
• 33:04
  I because I'm not too sure but I think like that whole um transition from
• 33:09
  Turkey to Spain I think it's even when the Netherlands or what whatever it was
• 33:15
  called back then was occupied by the Spanish Empire or Kingdom yeah I think
• 33:19
  back then it was also sort of celebrated I'm not too sure but it's been at least
• 33:23
  for the whole this Century yeah right this plan for sure the but but um I
• 33:29
  think I mean 1900s for sure yeah it's been going on for a long time so there
• 33:35
  you go an inside's perspective it's really shed some light on it cuz Luke
• 33:39
  you didn't you didn't understand what was racist about it either did you no I
• 33:42
  had no I still don't see what's racist about it I don't think it is at all I
• 33:46
  agree well now that we know that the dude's covered in soot cuz he's coming
• 33:51
  down every chimney I mean that makes important that makes it kind of
• 33:55
  different doesn't it I mean the color black self isn't racist it does except
• 33:59
  you've got to I think the problem that we have with stuff like that even is
• 34:03
  that um if you're from a different culture you will make assumptions about
• 34:09
  certain things and like for example you know like if if someone from the US cuz
• 34:13
  the other thing is countries like the US had big problems with slavery in the
• 34:17
  South and everything like that and they have baggage from that that other
• 34:20
  countries don't have but they put that baggage on other countries sometimes you
• 34:23
  know what I mean we we tend to be Australians tend to be quite flippant
• 34:28
  with with racism we have reputation for being racist but I think it's more just
• 34:31
  that we don't have a lot of this baggage at least you know we don't have any of
• 34:35
  this baggage because we're not we just don't care you know what I mean do not
• 34:37
  give a [ __ ] no but when you mentioned about slaves like that's sort of the
• 34:42
  origin of racism right yeah right but isn't it didn't didn't we talk about it
• 34:46
  once that actually there were more white slaves deported to Africa than there
• 34:50
  were black slaves to like States yeah well like there's a there's a also the
• 34:54
  reason that um it became such a problem in in the states is that they had uh
• 35:00
  slaves of All Sorts originally when they when they founded the state the United
• 35:05
  States uh like Scottish in particular had a lot of Scottish slaves and stuff
• 35:08
  like that uh and I assume from you know Asian colonies and stuff as well but uh
• 35:14
  in a country that was so sparsely populated if you had a slave who was
• 35:19
  white and uh he escaped you would never find him and so purely for practical
• 35:26
  reasons there became a huge demand for black slaves to because they can't
• 35:31
  escape because all of the people were slaves whereas all of the white people
• 35:36
  were not slaves oh fair enough yeah so apparently that's that's the origin of
• 35:39
  all that you know in in the US and the other thing is you always think of it
• 35:45
  as white people kidnapping black people and selling them to white people whereas
• 35:51
  that is not the case the Americans bought the black slaves from other black
• 35:56
  Africans who were kid slaves that's true as well and and not
• 36:00
  only that like I said they they had slaves from everywhere they weren't they
• 36:03
  weren't picky about it it's just that it became sadly uh it became practical Sy
• 36:09
  for yeah yeah well it was like I said it was a practical that's a thing you can't
• 36:13
  call them on it that's right so I have a question for you guys yes so you guys
• 36:19
  are like from Australia has a lot of influence from America right so you guys
• 36:23
  are all hyped on Santa Claus yeah tell me why isn't an issue with Sant Claus
• 36:27
  and his midgets it's not an issue for me at all we told you we we love midgets
• 36:33
  you know that is a good point is it because Netherlands is such a small
• 36:36
  country it's easy to like sort of like attack or assault on such a I think
• 36:41
  isolated I think it's because we've kind of set up already that they're elves and
• 36:48
  so they're fantasy creatures whereas you've got like I said no one noticed
• 36:53
  this for a long time and they've come in and they've already they're just going
• 36:56
  at a guy dressed as a black a white guy dress is a black guy and you're not
• 36:59
  allowed to do that and so that I think that's what it is I think we Cotton On
• 37:03
  probably years and years ago we've better we better make sure that that
• 37:07
  they're not only really tall people play them but then also the other thing I
• 37:12
  also think it's very easy to point fingers at other people and not look at
• 37:15
  what you're doing yourself oh absolutely yeah yeah I do that all the
• 37:20
  time step in front of traffic while I'm laughing at somebody anything else that
• 37:25
  you want to say you feel to clarify yeah I suppose just the most important thing
• 37:31
  is to understand it's it's not trying to be black yeah yeah no no we like I said
• 37:37
  everyone's very sincere like about no it's like it's not racist like not yeah
• 37:43
  it's not what everyone thinks it is and I think yeah I don't know what the why it
• 37:48
  got blown up like it did and also it's it's actually sad because it's meant for
• 37:52
  the kids like when you're 10 years old or something you like like Santa Claus
• 37:56
  you stop believing in it yeah Santa Claus and it's what do you mean you stop
• 37:59
  believing in him oh sorry spoiler no but it's it's sad because
• 38:06
  it's supposed to be for the like the kids when they're young they don't
• 38:09
  really give a damn about if it's a black guy or a white guy right they wouldn't
• 38:14
  even think about that it's just it's actually a small minority who was just
• 38:18
  making the most Ruckus yeah and it's just sad surprise surprise I I I prefer
• 38:25
  CA Claus over Santa Claus h also cuz we know Santa Claus comes from Coca-Cola
• 38:31
  right that more alert um but yeah cuz I we like back
• 38:37
  home in my family we celebrated Santa Claus uh Santa Claus more than Santa
• 38:41
  Claus like Santa Claus you give each other one gift yeah and Canta Claus like
• 38:45
  that's the holidays you you you celebrate right cuz that's kind of your
• 38:49
  thing yeah yeah Christmas is dinner and C class is
• 38:52
  gifts so it's sad though cuz I I always I always enjoyed
• 38:58
  yeah it would be sad if I couldn't celebrate it myself with my kids later
• 39:02
  so Luke would you go to a Christmas
• 39:05
  party dressed as Z pit yes will you yeah
• 39:11
  let me go one step further will you do that and take pictures and put it on the
• 39:15
  multiple nerdgasm Instagram um if I was going to a
• 39:20
  Christmas party I I would but I don't think I'm going to any this year
• 39:23
  listeners if you could invite I'm about to invite you to one
• 39:28
  well then I guess we'll wait and find out all right isn't it a bit provocative
• 39:33
  yeah see see that's the thing right um we're doing it for the wrong reasons
• 39:38
  yeah that's and you're you're absolutely right yeah and I like that you called us
• 39:42
  out on that I know yeah cuz you you're right we we are
• 39:46
  doing it for the wrong reason yeah yeah touche touche all right all right fine
• 39:51
  ly don't have to do black face yeah you can Dan can hook you with some of the
• 39:56
  some of the brown makeup he used is doing his yeah that's right Sho yeah
• 40:01
  great and I I'll go as a [ __ ] and I will [ __ ]
• 40:08
  you oh God some party yeah and there you have
• 40:13
  it so uh who knew I that really interesting yeah yeah I know same uh it
• 40:18
  was it was very good and like think he's making
• 40:22
  excuses but the thing is uh they're all everybody I hear talking about this
• 40:27
  thing right is so sincere about it like and they it's very it's clearly
• 40:34
  very it's a very personal thing because it's you know it's a tradition right and
• 40:38
  these people grew up with this thing and so they seem to get very upset when
• 40:41
  people question it and so I don't know it's a it's
• 40:46
  a yeah but on the other hand I can see it's it's blackface and that's not
• 40:52
  okay you know in in our in our society so um you know it's a tricky one well I
• 40:59
  mean I guess it's not a tricky one um for them because they just say no it's
• 41:03
  it's not it's not what it is and then we say well that's what it looks like so I don't
• 41:06
  know what do you think the solution is Luke um play the
• 41:13
  jingle Authority a crime yeah play the jingle anyway it is a hate crime play
• 41:19
  the jingle while the other brothers are doing time listen up y it's crypto
• 41:23
  crimes well as I keep say I I think think it's I don't quite think it is
• 41:30
  racist okay I think it's how people why people are doing it what's behind it MH
• 41:37
  I keep going back to something that happened a while ago where this kid
• 41:39
  dressed up as his favorite footballer mhm right and got a photo with him and
• 41:45
  then was called racist because he painted his face a little darker to just
• 41:51
  look like his favorite football player interesting and I just always felt find
• 41:57
  that very weird this kid got CAU up for being a racist for I don't think doing
• 42:01
  anything bad for not intentionally not intentionally and even the person who he
• 42:06
  was impersonating took a photo with him be okay with it yeah interesting so
• 42:12
  that's where I have a problem with it but if it's someone who's making fun of
• 42:17
  or doing like the stereotypical blackface the way it was well no I've
• 42:21
  got a problem with that yeah yeah but yeah I think it's just how we all look and do things
• 42:28
  H don't jump to the conclusion that something's always
• 42:32
  bad yeah yeah internet yeah all right have we got any other
• 42:37
  Christmas news yeah we do because there's a trend this Christmas that I
• 42:44
  never thought would come into fashion and that's that retailers are using rape
• 42:50
  in their Christmas adverts what and uh anti- rape Advocates the world over have
• 42:56
  come out and collect ly said enough is enough some of these are pretty strange
• 43:03
  like I don't know who who thought these were a good idea there's been a flurry
• 43:07
  of recent high-profile cases where companies have been forced to apologize
• 43:11
  after using rape or appearing to allude to sexual assault in festive advertising
• 43:16
  not just in their General advertising but tied into their Christmas sales yeah
• 43:22
  right right here a Singapore based online retailer Supergirl acknowledged
• 43:25
  that it had made a mistake after advertising its Black Friday with the
• 43:29
  slogan rape us now yeah that's weird department store Bloomingdale's
• 43:35
  apologized for its holiday advert which featured a young man creepily eyeing a
• 43:38
  laughing young woman beside the slogan spike your best friends eggnog when they're not
• 43:45
  looking that's unbelievable yeah yeah last Christmas there were rape themed
• 43:50
  Christmas t-shirts available for sale I saw and um the Virgin Mobile Christmas
• 43:56
  ad um was all about chloroforming your partner this
• 44:01
  Christmas so yeah date rape all
• 44:05
  round yeah I don't quite know how that's happened because you think Common Sense
• 44:12
  dictates probably probably not the best thing to how many people would have to
• 44:17
  approve these things the Black Friday one in particular rapers now it's like
• 44:22
  who thought that was a good wording to use like even having the girl on there
• 44:27
  yeah cuz the picture is of a girl who
• 44:31
  you know a young girl who yeah it's is either lying down or is tied up and
• 44:38
  she's either really loving it or really hating it it's kind of impossible to
• 44:41
  tell so strange like who thought that was going to be all right especially
• 44:47
  here this is a Singaporean ad and and I've got to say like that [ __ ] does not
• 44:51
  fly here well see I'm only saying that too because I'm looking at this one but
• 44:55
  the other one that's described which I haven't seen would the Bloomingdales one
• 44:58
  is that's just as bad when you when you now that I look at it like spike your
• 45:02
  best friend's eggnog when they're not looking what yeah what yeah what the
• 45:06
  [ __ ] like that's the kind of thing that I might make a joke about in a client
• 45:10
  meeting and then I get talked to afterwards like Dan that was not appropriate
• 45:15
  sure right and that does happen oh okay okay I've just looked at I've clicked on
• 45:20
  the thing to go to the ad and yeah that's that's just [ __ ] creepy like
• 45:24
  also how how is that an adverb oh my God so it's a chick Who's laughing and she's
• 45:29
  looking off into the distance and there's a rapist looking at her with his
• 45:33
  rapy eyes and the SL spike your best friend's eggnog when they're not looking is between
• 45:39
  like I is there some other meaning to this that we've missed uh I wouldn't
• 45:44
  imagine so like cuz I don't even understand how this functions as an
• 45:51
  advertisement do you know what I mean yeah like I can't see what are they
• 45:55
  selling apart from rap drugs hpn
• 46:00
  yeah [ __ ] bizarre no I can't see what they're
• 46:04
  selling I can't work it out so unless unless it was someone's genius idea to
• 46:10
  to raise um like the Nazi train that we spoke about last week exactly someone
• 46:16
  thought this would be a great way so the rape themed Christmas t-shirts that we
• 46:20
  just mentioned I've just clicked through to those and it's just a t-shirt with
• 46:23
  the word rape written on it in candy cane writing that's not even subtle no no I
• 46:29
  think those I think somebody just was like just make some shirts yeah like
• 46:34
  it's on Cafe Press you know what you know be funny yeah yeah I wonder how
• 46:39
  many they sold imagine who the [ __ ] would wear that the Virgin Mobile yeah I
• 46:44
  know God um the Virgin mobile ad is a man putting his hand over his wife's
• 46:50
  face like doing a kind of surprise you can't see this kind
• 46:54
  of but which looks perfectly innocent except that it says necklace or
• 47:01
  chloroform oh my God that's so strange man who thought
• 47:06
  this was a good idea I say actually I was going to say who would wear that
• 47:11
  raped t-shirt but um didn't the game Catherine come with a t-shirt that said
• 47:15
  rape yeah and Luke haven't haven't you been wearing that I I swear I've seen
• 47:21
  you and it's rape but with a love heart instead of a PE it's Rave but it's got a
• 47:25
  love heart it's a love heart instead of the V I swear to God this whole time since
• 47:32
  that game came out I thought the shirt said rape like why would I wear a shirt
• 47:37
  that says rape well I don't know Luke and that's
• 47:43
  it I'm I'm to be honest I'm a little confused as to how we haven't had this
• 47:47
  conversation yet considering that is quite a serious
• 47:53
  difference wearing it in one of the multim gasm videos
• 47:57
  he was yeah because I thought when we watched the video of that guy sucking
• 48:01
  his own dick and Luke was wearing a t-shirt cuz I swear I thought maybe I
• 48:07
  just read somewhere it was someone else was confused about it I swear I that's
• 48:12
  thought that's what it was and cuz I I mean I thought it was a
• 48:17
  bit weird I'll be honest I'll say this Luke why does it say Rave yeah actually
• 48:23
  it's a good question too CU I played the game a little bit I don't know why it I
• 48:26
  played the game a bit of rape no raving yeah you got nothing to say for
• 48:32
  yourself I got nothing is it really Rave or did you just think it was Catherine I
• 48:38
  I'm try I'm actually trying to look it up there I thought it was Rave no it
• 48:41
  says Rave people say Rave yeah Rave but yeah I can understand why might be that
• 48:48
  CU it's R A and then it's a love heart with like a little arrow through it
• 48:53
  exactly yeah so well I mean come on you can see why why I jumped to the
• 48:58
  conclusion that I found an explanation here that says it is rape but the heart
• 49:02
  means that it says rape my heart oh I'm not going to wear that shirt
• 49:09
  anymore yeah maybe it's best not to maybe it's best not
• 49:13
  to I mean because it's a love heart I I actually thought it was saying like I
• 49:17
  love rape you know like when you have like I heart New York I thought it was
• 49:21
  just I thought it was a creepy thing from the game which I'd never hadn't
• 49:25
  encountered in the game weing a daring anyone to say anything like you know
• 49:30
  like a like a love love you too much kind of weird creepy thing about about
• 49:35
  rape and I don't know like I said I don't know why I thought Luke was
• 49:37
  wearing it other than it's just Luke being like I don't really care what
• 49:41
  anybody thinks of me and I've got this t-shirt so cuz I know you didn't seek
• 49:46
  out the shirt it came with the game so I just never really questioned it well all right
• 49:52
  then let's not talk about that anymore then um can we talk about a little bit
• 49:58
  about a little a certain little film this is the last time we're going to get
• 50:01
  to talk about this before we see it um it comes out on
• 50:05
  Wednesday I assume you know the film that I'm talking about idea mat sisters
• 50:11
  SS think I watched that online I don't know F AB Paul one that comes out the same
• 50:18
  day good luck people why would you release your film on the same day as
• 50:24
  Star Wars come on that is strange that is strange I you know what I've never I
• 50:29
  don't think I've ever seen anything uh I know everyone says Tina is really great
• 50:33
  I don't think I've ever seen anything with they're in it like uh I've never
• 50:36
  seen you haven't 30 Rock which you need to watch that's brilliant okay well I
• 50:43
  only watched the one episode and I wasn't into it but anyway Star Wars Star
• 50:49
  Wars um you all hear this we've seen it yeah the on they probably have too but
• 50:55
  somebody who uh who who seen it already at the time of recording is George Lucas
• 51:01
  and he previously had said that what does he get to see it
• 51:05
  early I don't know can't think of a single reason after he did his best to destroy
• 51:11
  it um he he apparently there was a quote
• 51:17
  from a few weeks ago where he said that he uh he they went in a direction that
• 51:21
  he wouldn't have gone and people thought he was being a bit bit negative a bit
• 51:24
  sour graps about it um and he's come out this this recent we this week recently
• 51:29
  and said um he said I think the fans are going to love it it's very much the kind
• 51:34
  of movie they've been looking for which is still a bit compliment isn't it yeah
• 51:40
  that's right so [Music] um I just don't understand
• 51:46
  George yeah I know I know because you read the bit further down as well he's
• 51:50
  talking about how he basically thinks people just never understood what Star
• 51:55
  Wars was cuz he said the issue was ultimately they looked at the stories
• 51:59
  and they said we want to make something for the fans people don't actually
• 52:02
  realize it's actually a soap opera and it's all about family problems it's a
• 52:05
  terrible George Lucas act no no no it's not about family problems it's not about
• 52:09
  spaceships so they decided they didn't want to use those stories they decided
• 52:12
  they were going to do their own thing and so I decided fine this is the thing I like he's
• 52:17
  saying like other people looking at it and they've gone we want to make stories
• 52:19
  F fence that means he was think about thinking not thinking about the fans no
• 52:24
  I know 100% he was just well and I I I believe that I believe that he he
• 52:29
  probably was doing perfectly obvious yeah he was just doing whatever he
• 52:33
  wanted and also But the irony is he's talking about it's not all about
• 52:36
  spaceships like he's implying that it's a it's a serious drama when I mean the
• 52:41
  prequels were just [ __ ] over the top with the the action and the and the
• 52:47
  goofy hij Jinks and the slapstick and the Wen acting yeah so yeah exactly
• 52:52
  exactly the the drama was not the well not there were many compelling things
• 52:58
  about the definitely wasn't the drama but if you ask a lot of people they have
• 53:02
  no idea what the phantom menace is about like trade
• 53:05
  embargo it's embargo the worst the only reason I know what it's about is because
• 53:12
  I've spent you know as a fan who who I I I had to dissect it somewhat to
• 53:19
  to come to terms with it you know what I mean like I'm one of those fans who now
• 53:23
  I look back at them and I'm like what the [ __ ] but at the time I was like no
• 53:26
  no no it's it's fine it's it's all right you know they're good I'm still not
• 53:31
  entirely sure what the phantom menace is actually referring
• 53:35
  to yeah I assume it means like the growing popularity of the Sith yeah I
• 53:41
  assume the Sith were the Fantom Menace cuz they orchestrated the whole thing
• 53:45
  yeah but I mean that's a really clumsy way to phrase that do you know what I
• 53:48
  mean yeah like if I said you guys you guys reckon there's a bit of a phantom
• 53:52
  menace kind of happening you'd be like what do you mean and I'll be like like
• 53:57
  what I mean is do you think the Sith are getting too much power youd be like why
• 54:00
  didn't you just say that why did you get all weirdly poetic about
• 54:07
  it yeah yeah well so so he's uh he says he thinks it's going to be all right and
• 54:13
  I one thing I noticed this week because I've been I've been out looking at the
• 54:17
  merch I bought some stuff actually check Instagram there's a picture of me and my
• 54:20
  pajamas or video rather of me and my pajamas recording this podcast I watched it
• 54:27
  uh did you like it did you hit the little star on it I haven't yet let me
• 54:31
  uh I want to have a little bit more time alone with
• 54:35
  it yeah me too yeah but one thing I've
• 54:38
  noticed is that in in none of the stuff nothing in anywhere there's no prequel
• 54:45
  stuff not a not a mention of it am I am I just not seeing it it's all
• 54:51
  original trilogy and and and the new film I'm really hoping that they're just
• 54:58
  pretending it doesn't exist I mean that's what I'm doing that's what it
• 55:02
  seems like and also I read an interview another interview with JJ a no was with
• 55:06
  Lawrence casan right sorry because people had these weird theories about
• 55:10
  stuff from the prequels that was going to tie into into the new film and
• 55:13
  apparently Lawrence kdan was asked at
• 55:15
  some convention um if if Darth plagas
• 55:21
  plaus you know Palpatine's Master oh yeah yeah sure was going to was was
• 55:26
  going to make an appearance and he said sorry who yeah and they said oh it's
• 55:30
  from the prequels and he was like oh I'm not I'm not really familiar with those
• 55:34
  that's great and then and everyone was like good and then uh apparently also um
• 55:40
  he said that the when JJ rooms and he discussed it JJ basically said think A
• 55:46
  New Hope an Empire and don't worry about any of the others yeah like that's the
• 55:51
  tone Like A New Hope an Empire that's the tone so
• 55:57
  perfect cuzz I watched we actually rewatched all of them over the last few
• 56:01
  weeks and we watched Return of the Jedi the other night and it does have some
• 56:05
  goofy [ __ ] in there that I think I I've been G it I've been giving it a pass on
• 56:09
  some stuff yeah as an adult not in the
• 56:12
  80s that film does not hold up well no it's all the way through there some
• 56:18
  great great moments though yeah it's got some great stuff like some of my
• 56:22
  favorite Star Wars stuff like you know Luke Invader and yeah and um
• 56:26
  uh Admiral labar obviously and um yeah but it's also got some dumb goofy [ __ ]
• 56:32
  and I watch the despecialized Edition too not the yeah it's it's still got
• 56:38
  goofy stuff yes I love a bit going to watch
• 56:42
  them all tomorrow and Tuesday night right all right well I figet to space
• 56:49
  them out um and and the other thing that I saw this week is that there are people
• 56:53
  already in line to to see it um and can you explain to me why because I mean
• 56:58
  I've got set seats I know exactly where I'm sitting no this this is actually for
• 57:02
  a charity event um to raise money for the stylight Children's Foundation I'm
• 57:07
  not sure how they're raising the money by just being outside uh waiting but uh
• 57:14
  I don't know I assume it's probably maybe to raise awareness um or something but yeah
• 57:20
  people already lined up and and to be honest it made me feel a bit happy
• 57:24
  because you know that's kind of traditional um because back when the
• 57:28
  prequels were coming out we you know people did line up they lined up for
• 57:32
  months didn't they yeah so it made me when I saw the headline I was like oh
• 57:36
  well I'm glad that you know that all hasn't stopped so yeah yeah I'm glad of that
• 57:43
  but I'm also glad I'm not one of the people that has to do it no I don't I
• 57:46
  don't have to yeah I assume I've got a I've got a seat allocated to me which I
• 57:50
  will sit in yeah um and the other thing I've noticed recently is that they
• 57:55
  really are slapping Star Wars on everything oh my God so we were in a
• 58:01
  shopping Center yesterday and we were just pointing out all of the shops that
• 58:07
  had licensed Star Wars and it's ridiculous like everything almost all
• 58:12
  shops had some kind of branded Star Wars merchandise
• 58:17
  Crocs I just saw a photo on Instagram of
• 58:23
  cornflakes yeah yeah I I uh uh I obviously I mentioned I saw um the ice
• 58:29
  cream and scoffed and then bought pajamas but yeah I just we were um uh we
• 58:34
  were at Spotlight the other day and they
• 58:37
  have curtains yeah uh Star Wars curtains which I I thought that's cool um I may
• 58:43
  need to get those yeah they're pretty cool um Star Wars uh foldout chairs
• 58:50
  they've got Star Wars um there was something in particular was odd I can't
• 58:55
  remember what it was cuz it was so strange that I've like but then again m
• 58:58
  i mean odd everyday device did you guys have the starworth toothbrush cuz I
• 59:01
  [ __ ] did yeah I know you know this is not I they've always done this I know
• 59:06
  it's just Star Wars floaties I told you when I went to the first time I went to
• 59:12
  Luke's house in CRA his his little apartment that he had in in
• 59:15
  CRA um to visit him and I went to the bathroom and he had the little Django
• 59:19
  Fett bubble bath in there did I send you I sent you a photo
• 59:23
  of that I think then that's great in fact check Instagram cuz I think I've
• 59:28
  still got a photo of that if you want to see Luke's little Jango Fett bubble bath
• 59:32
  that I found in his bathroom I'd rather see Luke in the bath covered in his jeno
• 59:36
  fed bubbles that's what I'd really want to see can that happen Luke that might
• 59:42
  be able to happen all right yeah EAS e as out you don't ask the answer is
• 59:47
  always no we'll see what I can do taste Tastefully shot of course I want it
• 59:52
  Tastefully shot Jesus that would be good
• 59:57
  it be tasteful enough to get on and stay on Instagram all right good good good
• 1:00:02
  good last week when we were chatting about fivr f.com one of the uh primary
• 1:00:09
  sponsors of multiple nerdgasm if you're wondering and um we wondered or I
• 1:00:14
  wondered if there was any sex stuff on Fiverr right so uh curiosity got the
• 1:00:21
  better of me and I decided to um to just type sex into the search function on
• 1:00:27
  fiber and how that go for you no there's 172 results for the keyword sex would
• 1:00:33
  you like to hear what some of them are definitely so um they've got here I will
• 1:00:39
  record a sexy female voice over okay we've got I will display your logo on a
• 1:00:45
  surfboard next to a sexy bikini girl that's pretty great right then we
• 1:00:50
  skip up to I will help you start a sex toy business and I had to click through that cuz
• 1:00:57
  I I needed to find looking to go into business yeah exactly what that's what
• 1:01:02
  $5 gets me um so you click through and it says uh sex sells so selling sex toys
• 1:01:09
  must be an easy business right answer most sex toy businesses fail in the
• 1:01:14
  first six months make sure you're not one of them then it goes on to say that this
• 1:01:20
  girl is uh Dr Lisa Lawless I don't know if that's a real name or if she's a real doctor
• 1:01:27
  uh but she also claims to be the CEO of a major Zena Warrior Princess adult toy
• 1:01:31
  retail company and for5 why would she be helping the competition for $5 that is a
• 1:01:37
  bit odd isn't it see I often wonder about things like
• 1:01:40
  that like if you're such a successful businessman why are you selling a course
• 1:01:44
