• 0:42
  of My Life I'll do what I want story of Luke's life get in you didn't get in

  call me your honor it's got a little lobster on it shout out to Proclamation
• 1:12
  Brewing Company see you accused Luke of being under the table sponsored by
• 1:17
  Microsoft but this is two weeks in a row that you've mentioned the proclamation
• 1:21
  Brewery yeah it's cuz I go there literally every week and I'm friends
• 1:25
  with the staff and I like the beer yeah Fair sure it's about as close to
• 1:30
  sponsored as you can get I suppose without being sponsored in that you just
• 1:34
  love it and just want to talk about it and talk them up like they don't give me
• 1:37
  the beer so that I'll talk about it wait they give you the beer sometimes okay so
• 1:43
  you are getting kickbacks from Proclamation I go there that often is is
• 1:46
  is the problem and and I mean oh there's places I go a lot too that don't give me
• 1:50
  it for free well I no I used to get stuff for free in some places I'm going
• 1:55
  to get called out for saying inside baseball again but this is bit inside
• 1:58
  baseball but but but one of the staff members is a friend of Jordans okay can
• 2:02
  you say inside Cricket for our Australian listeners and our Pakistani
• 2:07
  listeners this's a little bit inside Russell Crow but uh there's a Dunkin
• 2:11
  Donuts controversy and I want to know if it's Proclamation Glory related
• 2:16
  similarly to the I'm almost disappointed I thought you got some donuts delivered
• 2:20
  they was left in the side of the road you started wondering whether the
• 2:22
  problem was you oh no no no this is um
• 2:27
  this this is on the news this week uh Dunkin Donuts you're familiar with I'm
• 2:31
  sure any overseas listeners aren't familiar with Dunkin Donuts they make
• 2:35
  terrible coffee they make terrible coffee and terrible Donuts but the the
• 2:39
  slogan is America runs on Duncan and people go nutso for Dunkin Donuts here
• 2:43
  in New England in particular everybody drinks this [ __ ] like oh it's it's the
• 2:48
  coffee places they love it yeah they love it and I just can't I can't drink
• 2:52
  it it's just it's I guess you have to grow up with it but they had a uh a celebration it's
• 2:59
  been 30 years that the uh the uh Dunkin Donuts in Cranston which is a suburb of Rh Island
• 3:06
  Cranston had a celebration uh they put up a post on Facebook and uh I'll just
• 3:11
  give it a bit of a read and you just tell me when you spot the problem with
• 3:14
  this sure sure yeah giving the first 100 guests free coffee for a year starting
• 3:19
  at 9:00 a.m. ribbon cutting with the Cranston community at 10:00 a.m. check
• 3:23
  presentation to Special Olympics of Rhode Island 10: a.m. Duncan swag
• 3:28
  giveaways free face painting open to White Cranston Rhode Island
• 3:32
  residents what uh special appearance sorry sorry sorry
• 3:38
  what what so no so apparently what's happened is
• 3:43
  what this is the open to White Cranston r on residents in the Cranston Area 18 plus
• 3:50
  age of all places to make statements like that to the Providence plantations of Rhode
• 3:57
  Island so what's happened is apparent
• 4:01
  uh recently another Dunkin' Donuts had a 30e celebration and did the same thing
• 4:07
  and this has been copied and pasted right and the other place was called
• 4:10
  White ples ah and somebody's just [ __ ] up so was just going
• 4:16
  control control C and then nobody decided to check but
• 4:22
  then and in in most places in this text it's correct but just in that one spot
• 4:27
  it's open to White cranon Rose Island residence that's amazing oh so they they
• 4:33
  they they were saying white point or whatever it was called and then they
• 4:36
  open to White Plains Road Island what said before back back changed planes
• 4:40
  instead of instead of the whole they've changed one word instead of both words
• 4:44
  yeah that is a magical mistake isn't it like it's it's it couldn't have been
• 4:50
  more worse especially because it's a pretty big event like I mean it and that's what
• 4:56
  I quite like about it like they keep the competition is only open to the locals
• 5:01
  though yes oh that's like it's not like everyone from the country try and race
• 5:06
  over it's no you have to be local to this Dunkin Donuts to be eligible this
• 5:10
  is Luke's takeway this is Luke's takeaway from this story he likes that
• 5:14
  it's only for the locals this is the man who has famously gone on record to say
• 5:18
  that he doesn't see anything wrong with blackace he also doesn't see anything
• 5:22
  wrong with having whites only segregated coffee shops no I do see that problem
• 5:27
  but one of the things was the the the new asking people about it said oh what
• 5:30
  do you think about this and everybody said it's a mistake because the that
• 5:35
  it's the area is like they've somebody's [ __ ] something up there like no one
• 5:40
  thought it was intentional so the that clip popped up on YouTube the other day
• 5:44
  of when um Scott Morrison was given a press conference and that guy get off
• 5:49
  came out and was like get off the grass will you and sorry the press
• 5:54
  conference move into the road so funny they were standing on his [ __ ] grass right
• 6:00
  he just had his lawn done I know but there was no animosity he came out in
• 6:05
  his underwear and he was like guys can you get off the lawn and then and then
• 6:08
  the Prime Minister was like yeah he's right we should get and then shift his whole press
• 6:13
  conference into the road yeah that was very funny I got to call myself out on
• 6:18
  something just briefly you done usually we have to wait
• 6:22
  for Luke to call us out so he didn't and I I just read something this week and I
• 6:28
  was like you know what I should correct myself on the podcast cuz if someone
• 6:31
  listens to an older episode why they may not listen to this one on like there is no sanjed
• 6:37
  McCurry in the past when we've been talking about various things like
• 6:42
  something that I'm sure is probably going to come up this episode to do with
• 6:45
  Umbrella Academy we've been talking about trans rights and that kind of
• 6:47
  thing and I have in the past said that we used to be mad at gay people and now
• 6:52
  it's fine right gay people the fine they're not fine no I've I've I've no
• 6:58
  I've said that in theast because I'm privileged enough to not
• 7:01
  have to know about the fact that they're not but I've recently read some articles
• 7:06
  and stuff that yeah no they're not so I want retract my earlier statements we
• 7:11
  don't have to go on about it I apologize they're not fine still
• 7:16
  struggling and and everyone should just [ __ ] leave him alone I think the
• 7:20
  issue is the reason why you think they're fine is because you come from a
• 7:24
  group of people who believe it's all fine that there's no issue don't give a
• 7:28
  [ __ ] so so yeah yeah but then you're not actually seeing the actual other side of
• 7:34
  it where people correct I also come from a country I think that has I mean
• 7:39
  because a lot of the stuff that I'm talking about is probably us specific
• 7:41
  stuff like particularly you know well I mean you probably heard there's all
• 7:44
  sorts of stuff going on now with this roie Wade stuff and you know they're
• 7:48
  trying to criminalize abortion everywhere again and and it's it's all
• 7:52
  kind of related to that people saying now they're also down south talking
• 7:56
  about get rid of gay marriage RS exactly so stuff like that so anyway I read an
• 8:01
  article and I was like I really should correct CU I I made light of it not
• 8:05
  light of it but I was basically like okay people are fine now actually I
• 8:08
  think you're being hard on yourself cuz I actually think you were quite careful
• 8:11
  about your wording even at the time and I think you do have a point in the in
• 8:15
  the fact that Society tends to point its finger at one social group at a time and
• 8:20
  trans is certainly the social group of the moment and and gay people are maybe
• 8:25
  out of the Limelight a little bit in terms of the criticism that the
• 8:29
  conservative Society points at them but I'm I'm sure you're also right in
• 8:33
  correcting it that they probably still have a lot of uh hurdles that we don't
• 8:38
  know about particularly I mean this is a big country right and so like I don't
• 8:42
  see it at all here where I am you're also probably in quite a progressive
• 8:47
  part of the where we have the game lesbian marra every year I didn't see it
• 8:50
  because it seemed fine everyone was getting along occasionally you'd have
• 8:54
  some idiot going where's the straight Mar but then everyone would just turn
• 8:57
  around and go you don't understand understand why there is a m gr do you
• 9:02
  yeah everyone would just say [ __ ] go about our business I also love that
• 9:06
  people when they go where's the stre m and all that well well you could
• 9:09
  organize it yeah yeah if you feel that's every other day of the year you feel under
• 9:15
  represented organize it like like that's the whole thing like the whole the G Mar
• 9:20
  wasn't set up by the government wasn't set up by the police was it was just set
• 9:23
  up by a group of volunteers went we're going to do this so you have every right
• 9:28
  to go and great it's the same thing that that women's
• 9:32
  group had their women's only screening of what movie was it we reported on
• 9:36
  right Wonder Woman oh Wonder Woman and men were like where's our screening and
• 9:40
  it's like they organized it organize whatever you want mate you're not
• 9:46
  missing out on anything but expect people to have a go at you that's right
• 9:50
  yeah like you're having a go at them correct except they'd be
• 9:55
  right right um we don't have to go into the whole R versus weight thing and in
• 10:01
  fact we shouldn't sure but can I just
• 10:03
  say no and correct me if if I'm naive
• 10:08
  but I find it confusing because normally when I hear about laws passed in America
• 10:15
  and public opinion in America I have to remind myself that the reason I don't
• 10:20
  understand is because they have a mentality of Freedom above all else
• 10:25
  don't tell me what to do whereas then they pass mavian laws that make me think
• 10:32
  it's the opposite and I don't understand don't tell me how don't tell me I have
• 10:37
  to get a vaccination I mean tell this woman what she can do that's the only
• 10:40
  thing I can think of is it maybe it's sexist no I I mean it's not the same
• 10:44
  thing don't WR in I know it's not the same thing but I do understand your
• 10:47
  point yeah because I've sort of fallen into um Sovereign citizens lately of
• 10:53
  course you have God not again we knew this would happen he says lately he's
• 10:57
  been saying lately for the past two years is oh lately I've watched like I
• 11:03
  don't know how many YouTube videos on it now and oh my God people are just stupid
• 11:07
  and they're only Americans right yeah no no offense American listeners I'm not
• 11:11
  saying they're all Americans are s I'm just saying is this an American
• 11:15
  Sovereign citizens America yeah I watched a video on the New Zealand
• 11:19
  Sovereign citizen oh okay so the fuckits can live anywhere is what you're saying
• 11:23
  anywhere Australia New Zealand mostly America though but they are starting to
• 11:27
  spread out and but they say the same thing yeah like the big thing is
• 11:32
  traveling and not driving can you explain that to me I've heard this said
• 11:35
  but I don't understand even the logic behind the argument I've heard Luke say
• 11:38
  it and I still didn't quite understand it okay so what they claim is when they
• 11:45
  in America I think it's the fourth amendment or something you have the
• 11:49
  right to travel un abided or something like that you're allowed to travel
• 11:53
  between states so it's basically like you're allowed to travel between states
• 11:56
  and you have the same rights in that state as you do as anyone who lives
• 12:00
  there but what Sovereign citizen turn it into is I have the right to travel so I
• 12:06
  can get my car and I don't need to have driver's license or registration cuz
• 12:10
  that's my right to travel and it's s like no you have a right to travel so
• 12:14
  you can walk catch a bus catch a taxi it means they can't stop and search you at
• 12:19
  the border I'm pretty sure do mean you can just hop in a plane and have a go
• 12:23
  yeah yeah yes but yet they just they can't get over and then they they their
• 12:28
  big is they used the blacks Law Dictionary yes which is a dictionary hey
• 12:34
  they've got to change that name I think it was just the author's name I'm sure
• 12:39
  it was but still but yeah and if you actually go on like a lot of them are
• 12:43
  trying to get like the earlier editions like they really want the first edition
• 12:47
  that's what you want really outdated versions cuz they change it they change
• 12:51
  things basically the blacks Law Dictionary is just a dictionary to for people to learn
• 12:56
  legal it's not the LA what words it's not the book of the law yeah but in
• 13:03
  there they found that travel means like you're traveling for Commerce so like
• 13:08
  your your bus driver attacks you like he something like that and that so they've
• 13:11
  gone like well no no driving is your bus driver or something so they're not
• 13:15
  driving because they're not in Commerce right they're traveling and it's just
• 13:20
  this never ending cycle they've never no one's ever won to say explain all you
• 13:25
  want to a cop he's not going to care at the end of the day right it doesn't
• 13:28
  matter what the the bloody dictionary you've got says right the problem is it
• 13:32
  matters what happens when you go to court that's all that matters in court
• 13:37
  some of them think they win when the judges are just dismissing the cases
• 13:41
  because they just go this is not worth our time I've got backlog of more
• 13:46
  important stuff and so like just get out of here I'm I don't want to go cuz they
• 13:51
  know that when they come in they're not in for a quick yes guilty not guilty
• 13:55
  they're in there for a conversation and an argument and it's going to go on and
• 13:59
  just like get out go away and they take that as a win they say this guy is going
• 14:04
  to be a [ __ ] nightmare yeah I just can't deal with it today I was listening
• 14:08
  to a podcast about the American Civil War recently and uh I mean the more I learn
• 14:14
  about the Civil War the more I think that the the north should have just let
• 14:18
  the South secede and just be done with it but um there was you reminded me Luke
• 14:24
  when you said that a citizen should be able to go to any other state and have
• 14:27
  the same rights in that state as the people in that state and there was
• 14:30
  actually a slave who tried to sue his owner because his owner took him to a
• 14:37
  free state where slavery was illegal and and then took him back to his to his home
• 14:44
  right I'm happy here though but well that's what he said he saysay here since
• 14:47
  I've been in that state I should technically be free because slavery is
• 14:51
  not legal in that state he didn't win if you're wondering and this was before the
• 14:56
  Civil War yeah I'm shocked I'm very it'll but the one thing I found quite
• 15:02
  weird like all these Sovereign C everything who are very much like
• 15:06
  America above all else in the Constitution they skip over the 10th
• 15:10
  Amendment which one's the 10th the 10th one the 10th Amendment is gives the
• 15:15
  basically goes anything that's not covered under this constitution the
• 15:19
  states have the right to make their own rules and laws about oh sure yes R over
• 15:23
  themselves well I mean that's and that's where cuz yeah the basically the
• 15:28
  Constitution couldn't cover everything so they go look the Nitty Gritty stuff
• 15:31
  the states can work out for themselves and I meanes think it's I think it's funny too
• 15:37
  that like I mean as smart as you think the founding fathers were they didn't
• 15:42
  know a about a lot of stuff that was you
• 15:45
  know why it was 400 years ago the world's yeah the world's pretty [ __ ]
• 15:52
  different no but I love that it's it's it's like we've got we've got to stick
• 15:56
  to the Constitution all these amendments to it say so and like well hold on I
• 16:00
  mean there's some good yeah right no there's some good stuff in there for
• 16:04
  sure like the 21st amendment [ __ ] man did you have any idea that Luke knew so
• 16:09
  much about he knows more clearly more about the Constitutional Amendments than I
• 16:15
  do I learned there were certain ones that I learned about to pass my test and
• 16:20
  then I forgot about them because I didn't need to know them anymore so yeah
• 16:25
  Mo most people only know about two maybe three and that's you the first and the
• 16:31
  first the one that let that's really it guns oh yeah the first second and fifth
• 16:36
  that's really Luke knows the order as well Luke knows as much about American
• 16:41
  constitutional law as Matt knows about the
• 16:46
  Nazis yeah everyone's got their thing I just put see it's like watching a train
• 16:50
  wreck it's just you can't turn away yeah no I agree that's I used to enjoy
• 16:55
  watching um you know like hitch and debate people on subjects mostly you
• 17:01
  know religious people no but now now I'm just like it's just not interesting
• 17:04
  anymore because no when I was younger cuz there's no argument no but when I
• 17:08
  was younger you know I kind of brought up in in that a little bit so I was like
• 17:12
  you I was religious when I was younger and that but then just as I get older
• 17:15
  and I'm just like I just don't care about any of this stuff anymore I think
• 17:18
  what happens as well is a lot of times when you're watching someone who does
• 17:21
  those debates um they start to run out of people who are willing to debate them
• 17:27
  and so they they basically scraping the bottom Barrel to try get anyone to come
• 17:30
  online it's just cheerleading right it's the same arguments like for example
• 17:33
  there's like I know Sam Harris used to I think he's stopped doing them for this
• 17:36
  probably for the same reason right it's just like it's pointless because you've
• 17:39
  got he'll get up and all the atheists will be like yeah fing samam Harris and
• 17:42
  all of the points he makes everyone will be like w clapping and then some you
• 17:46
  know like evangelist guy will get up and he'll say stuff that like isn't
• 17:51
  compelling at all to us and then go and we've got proof the Bible but they'll
• 17:55
  all start cheering because to them that's a compelling argument and it's
• 17:59
  and then like what you know it's just yeah just get silly and that's why
• 18:02
  there'll never be peace that's right that's why that's why Ireland is
• 18:08
  [ __ ] that's right yeah um Chris Pratt has come out and clarified some
• 18:14
  statements we made about him he called us out did he he didn't mention Us by
• 18:18
  name but we we have we have made these statements he's come out and said not
• 18:22
  only is he not religious but he's also definitely not from the Hillsong Church
• 18:27
  which we speci spefically called him out he said he's not religious did he say
• 18:31
  he's he yeah it's weird I think he's he's saying he's not religious but then
• 18:35
  also going but I go to church yeah I think he's saying he's
• 18:39
  he's not saying he's not a Christian in the he's just saying this is what he
• 18:43
  says I think there's a distinction between being religious adhering to
• 18:47
  customs created by man often times appropriating the all reserved for who I
• 18:51
  believe is a very real God and using it to control people to take money from
• 18:55
  people to abuse children to steal land to justify hatred so what saying is I'm
• 19:00
  not that particular definition of religious that I've chosen to I believe
• 19:04
  in God I'm not one of the [ __ ] yeah so he is religious I could sort of
• 19:09
  understand I I don't have a I actually quite like sort of saying that like yes
• 19:13
  I believe in God yes I'm religious but yeah I don't I also believe that they're
• 19:16
  doing terrible things and that's what I mean good they are people do terrible
• 19:21
  things in the name of God I got no issues with people believing there might
• 19:26
  be some sort of Creator I don't [ __ ] know no so yeah fair enough and actually
• 19:31
  for the most part whatever people believe doesn't really affect our
• 19:34
  day-to-day lives no I mean sometimes it does unfortunately it it does that's the
• 19:38
  problem yeah when it does is is the problem and I think I think that's a big
• 19:42
  part of like the RO V way he's also God says no yeah but then but the pro the
• 19:48
  reason why that one's so in particularly complicated is because they think we're
• 19:52
  doing it to them in that particular instance because because of we don't
• 19:57
  have to go because of what America the law is very clear if you
• 20:01
  want to kill a child you can't do it when they're an embryo you have to wait
• 20:05
  until they're get to school exactly yeah all right let's get off
• 20:12
  this all right well this is a good segue right because somebody who called out
• 20:15
  Chris Pratt was Elliot pagee and I do want to talk about Umbrella Academy
• 20:20
  Season 3 have you guys seen it we about much if you haven't seen it no I haven't
• 20:24
  seen I Str episode one season one really
• 20:29
  oh season one oh no God and season 2 was [ __ ] amazing yeah I love show really
• 20:36
  now this Show's really now Matt I read a pretty damning review of season 3 last
• 20:41
  night I've seen some bad reviews too they called it Messi right is that what
• 20:44
  it uh yeah Messi and um filled with Filler episodes was was this particular
• 20:50
  reviewers I read yeah I read that and I was like the thing I like about this
• 20:54
  show is that it's so listeners if you don't know it's about this kind of super
• 20:58
  superheroes there one day in the well ' 80s um just suddenly mysteriously a
• 21:04
  bunch of women just who weren't pregnant just suddenly were like pregnant
• 21:09
  instantly gave birth and then there were these babies there out of [ __ ]
• 21:11
  nowhere and then this rich guy and then the Supreme Court came in and overturned
• 21:16
  Roy way that's right and then this guy collected them all or as many as he
• 21:20
  could and he trained them to be the Umbrella Academy super Pokemon but
• 21:23
  they're all just dysfunctional [ __ ] which is what's cool about it right and
• 21:29
  yeah exactly and so when you when I don't want to spoil anything but when
• 21:32
  they when I saw people say it's messy I'm like it is but I feel like it's
• 21:37
  supposed to be because they don't communicate with each other like you've
• 21:40
  got whole sequences there's like four episodes where no one's [ __ ] telling
• 21:44
  anybody anything and then you've got this whole subplot where these people
• 21:46
  are going off to do something that they don't even need to do anymore like it's
• 21:50
  it's completely redundant but sure sure only because they don't know and so is
• 21:54
  that what you mean that's narrative mess that's that's drama that's because
• 21:58
  didn't tell him he's already got the [ __ ] briefcase like is is it is it
• 22:03
  also something that's going to make sense later like are all the episodes
• 22:06
  out or is it yeah yeah all the episodes are out okay yeah no it makes sense and
• 22:10
  and I guess if you're like looking for like a tight like I don't know like I
• 22:14
  said if I guess it's messy but maybe it's just because season 2 was so
• 22:20
  intricately woven all the different stories and the time travel and all that
• 22:25
  is is that missing from this season maybe that's what people are think I saw
• 22:29
  trailer I saw the time travels definitely in there yeah well the whole
• 22:33
  I mean I don't want to spoil anything but yeah it's it's specifically about
• 22:38
  you know you saw the end of season 2 right Dan they got back to their time
• 22:42
  except it's different the sparrow Academy and they're like what the [ __ ]
• 22:48
  so more of that yeah wants to have sex with
• 22:52
  himself um which one oh yeah I'm sure I don't know I saw a trailer and I'm
• 22:57
  pretty sure there was a joke could yeah like if I was to meet my guy I could or
• 23:02
  maybe I just they have conv that yeah you're doppelganger yeah Matt and I made
• 23:07
  a film about that that's right yeah that's it made me think of that when
• 23:10
  they when they joked about it is it sex or masturbation it's class class wants
• 23:15
  to [ __ ] himself of course I was going to say surely it's that yeah yeah yeah of
• 23:20
  course and he's magnificent in everything he's in cuz I used to watch
• 23:24
  that's the thing that's great about this show is that they're all good
• 23:26
  interesting characters and and flawed and so like I said yeah messy but I mean
• 23:33
  I liked I liked the mess because I'm just like oh my God these idiots like
• 23:38
  like superpowered people and just cuz they can't have a [ __ ] straight
• 23:41
  conversation with each other all this nonsense is happening it's like so I
• 23:45
  finished another show last night uh and I'm looking for something to start on
• 23:50
  and I might start on this actually because that sounds good to me I loved
• 23:53
  it Jenna loved it too it was really good and one thing that yeah happens in it is
• 23:58
  that they address Elliot page well not Elliot page as such they the character
• 24:04
  of of Van van Transitions and becomes Victor we like this mentioned this
• 24:09
  before and one of the things people were saying is how's this going to be and uh
• 24:14
  it's fine it's great okay yeah CU I mean it's probably the best way you can
• 24:19
  handle something like that is that that they uh yeah yeah I'm looking forward to
• 24:23
  seeing that I think people made a big deal out of it before they knew how they were going
• 24:28
  seeing it yeah that's not like people on the
• 24:32
  internet I know well yeah Jordan Peters just recently put up a video of him
• 24:38
  crying again because he's been kicked off Twitter for making fun of Elliot pagee see
• 24:45
  Peterson started out [ __ ] 10 years ago making some incredibly valid points
• 24:52
  and very very quickly transitioned into being an absolute [ __ ] with yeah but now
• 24:58
  I'm like was he making valid points or is it just a coincidence that
• 25:03
  it but here's the thing Matt it's the same about you talking about your
• 25:06
  Hitchens debates and all of that stuff it's like whatever because actually he's
• 25:11
  just yelling into an echo chamber as well most people most people don't take
• 25:15
  him seriously at all no no the problem is a lot of people do yeah I mean less
• 25:21
  and less people he's definitely driving people away lately but yeah there's
• 25:25
  still a group of people who very much believe exactly what he saying oh yeah
• 25:29
  there is but like yeah you're right [ __ ] always going to be the case you're
• 25:35
  always going to have terrible people who think they're
• 25:39
  doing right yeah put me in
• 25:44
  charge um Luke if you were in charge what do you have green lit the uh the
• 25:48
  Bubba hotep sequel that I found out was meant to be a thing and then was
• 25:51
  canceled what was it about I would have watched the [ __ ] out of that for it it
• 25:57
  was called Bubba knows feratu oh
• 26:01
  [ __ ] even better for people who don't know what I'm talking about Bubba hotep
• 26:06
  is basically Bruce it's Bruce Campbell movie where he plays his character is
• 26:11
  Elvis Presley in living in an old age home or is he
• 26:16
  El he certainly thinks he is according to this what he says is he switched
• 26:21
  places with a lookalike just cuz he wanted to get out of the spotlight for a bit but
• 26:26
  then he that person died and he lost all the paperwork confirming that he was the
• 26:31
  real one so then he had to go through life as Elvis firstat and then he goes a
• 26:35
  retirement home which is being attacked by I think it's an old Egyptian mummy
• 26:40
  who's sucking the life out of people through their he teams up with is it JFK
• 26:46
  JFK yeah that's right yeah a black man black yeah who's black black man he
• 26:51
  thinks he's I want to watch that again now that was a great mve and the thing is they
• 26:55
  could just they could still do it actually Bruce Campbell's quite old now
• 27:00
  I'll correct you on one thing it's a cowboy mummy it's a cowboy mmy that's
• 27:06
  right I'm not sure why I don't remember why
• 27:12
  yeah great yeah they could still make that cuz it's not like evil dead when
• 27:15
  she stepped away from the basically going look I'm too old for that like I I
• 27:19
  can't be that physical anymore but BBA he plays in G Nur says that but then he
• 27:25
  does the Multiverse of Madness
• 27:30
  punch few times really it's it's available in streaming now I'm sure I
• 27:35
  think oh yeah yeah yeah the the availability is not defitely is the time
• 27:39
  to sit down for 2 and a half hours is the problem yeah no really on that and
• 27:44
  in fact the fact that I have to watch it at home now instead of at the cinema
• 27:48
  almost makes it less likely that I can watch it not more likely a bizarre way
• 27:53
  yeah because to go out and watch it you have to actually make plans and organize it
• 28:00
  yeah at home not going to go out of the way to make the plans and that way and I
• 28:04
  don't know if Matt if you and Jenna do this but Haw and I can make all the
• 28:08
  [ __ ] plans we want during the day for what we'll do at night whilst the
• 28:12
  child's in bed and then once that happens all we want to do is go to
• 28:16
  [ __ ] bed too yeah oh yeah we'll watch a couple she's going to be up soon y
• 28:22
  like for example we've watched one of the new episodes of stranger things
• 28:26
  didn't have time to watch first is there new episodes yeah the two episodes came
• 28:30
  out on the first of July last oh [ __ ] last two of this season as we know yeah
• 28:36
  there's another season but they are the last two yes for now they go what yeah
• 28:42
  the first one goes for like an hour and a half and the second one's like 2 and a
• 28:45
  half hours is it okay I'm glad I didn't try to watch that last night then all
• 28:48
  right well I might watch those before I watch Umbrella Academy um yeah because I
• 28:53
  need to know I need to know I watched a couple of movies this week um and
• 28:58
  they're movies that we have anticipated on this show both because they're from
• 29:02
  filmmakers we've talked about in the past so I'll just quickly give a little
• 29:06
  shout out to I watched the Northman which is the new Robert Edgar movie and
• 29:12
  I watched Men which is the new Alex Garfield movie Alex Garfield Alex
• 29:17
  Garland movie so Alex Garland did X marer which was one of the best movies
• 29:24
  of that year whichever year that was 2016 it's pretty um yeah yeah loved it
• 29:30
  made devs which I loved as well Annihilation which I could take or leave
• 29:35
  but I was really looking forward to his that was the one wasn't it yeah and it
• 29:39
  was okay it was okay is interesting men is apparently
• 29:44
  divided people at it divided me Matt I must say yeah right I think even
• 29:50
  somebody I think somebody who was in it was like I don't know what this is
• 29:54
  about well okay so men is a horror movie
• 30:01
  if the monster was toxic masculinity
• 30:06
  okay and I think it's just it's interesting and it's done well but I
• 30:12
  it's just a bit on the nose you know it's just a little bit too woke for its
• 30:17
  own good so this the premises about this woman who's come out of a very abusive
• 30:23
  marriage abusive physically and mentally abusive marriage
• 30:29
  um and she goes to this English country town to get away kind of get
• 30:34
  away yeah exactly right but all the men in that town are total Pricks to her
• 30:41
  right and you're never really sure whether this is just her bringing this
• 30:47
  kind of psychological baggage from the past into the present or if the message
• 30:53
  of the movie is that men are just [ __ ] quits right but either way
• 30:58
  every man in the movie except for her husband is played by the one actor Rory
• 31:03
  caner which you may recognize as M's right-hand man from the most recent
• 31:08
  James Bond movies or as the pig [ __ ] prime minister from the first episode of
• 31:13
  season one of Black Mirror he plays all the men old
• 31:18
  young uh CGI face on a child um big
• 31:23
  teeth and a fake nose at one point and it's just hard to take it seriously
• 31:30
  but it's Rory doing a whole of voices in wigs now the horror they get right is
• 31:35
  quite violent it's very creepy the tension has done very very well there's
• 31:40
  just something about it that just doesn't sit very well I I don't know I
• 31:45
  didn't like it as much as I wanted to that sounds interesting for sure and
• 31:50
  also I think that's a problem with something you just said you didn't like
• 31:53
  as much as you wanted to you shouldn't want to like anything yeah well
• 31:57
  unfortunately I wanted to like Northman as well but fortunately I did oh good
• 32:04
  cuz I want to like that also yeah it's excellent um is it the greatest Viking
• 32:09
  movie ever made cuz that's what it's being called I mean maybe how many
• 32:13
  Viking movies are there really I ER
• 32:17
  North I there's there I love Eric the Viking and actually while I was watching
• 32:22
  this I kept thinking to myself I want to watch Eric the
• 32:25
  Viking I really like valal Rising still and I thinko I would probably watch that
• 32:31
  again before I watched this again but this is quite good it's beautifully shot
• 32:37
  it's shot like an old medieval epic but it also leans very heavily into the
• 32:43
  mythology right you know there's a lot of kind of esoteric stuff in in here as
• 32:49
  well I read an article about something I'm going to forget the specifics but it
• 32:55
  and I was like got to watch this and then come back to this article so
• 32:57
  hopefully I saved it somewhere about how
• 32:59
  the camera work in it is odd and in there are things where it it's weird but
• 33:06
  it's like must be intentional because this guy was like why you would you
• 33:10
  wouldn't that wouldn't happen by accident so like there's I'm trying I'm
• 33:15
  not doing a very good job of explaining this I'll trying to find the article
• 33:17
  I'll send it to you it was just interesting I'd love to know what
• 33:20
  nothing stood out to me I mean there's very interest there's this one shot
• 33:24
  where and in fact it's it's quite interesting because they they don't go
• 33:28
  to England right right they go east instead of West so it starts out in
• 33:34
  North Russia which the vings also went to right and apparently in the script uh
• 33:40
  Robert Edgar had written that they went to England and Alexander scar was like
• 33:44
  I've [ __ ] seen that let's go somewhere else the Vikings were
• 33:47
  everywhere stop showing them in England um but there's this one shot where it's
• 33:51
  on the bank of the river and you see a couple of long ships go by and then it
• 33:55
  starts zooming in or you think it's just zoom in but then suddenly it's on a boat
• 34:01
  and you're now zooming in to a character's face who's sitting on the
• 34:05
  boat as the camera and the boat are going down the river it's it's quite
• 34:10
  incredible yeah right okay yeah I I'll try and find it it was just yeah
• 34:14
  something I think this the person who wrote the article was was a
• 34:17
  cinematographer or something like that and just said that there's some
• 34:19
  particular shots where he he was like oh that looks like a mistake but then he
• 34:22
  looked watched it again he was like it can't be a mistake like hm they must
• 34:26
  have yeah I'd like to know what to do that refering I'm not sure nothing stood
• 34:30
  out to me as as as being out of place necessar and and it's it's [ __ ] weird
• 34:34
  and trippy editing and stuff too so yeah I got to watch the thing is though
• 34:37
  apparently uh Robert Edgar is a stickler for historical accuracy in all his
• 34:42
  movies right to the point where apparently they were um you know the
• 34:47
  crew the set Constructors were building the the long long houses and stuff and
• 34:51
  he was like no they didn't use nails they used all this different and they're
• 34:54
  like you're not going to see that and he's like no take it down build it the
• 34:57
  way they built it jeez there something that yeah only he's
• 35:03
  really going to care about cuz that's right if it did it happen it would bug
• 35:07
  him and no one else but now he gets to say that and then everyone can be like
• 35:10
  oh yeah I noticed MH they didn't yeah well he had archaeologists on set each
• 35:16
  day apparently really to like correct him if he got anything wrong give him
• 35:21
  whip him that's why AR yeah to whip him yeah well yeah well we're movies have
• 35:28
  you seen that they're talking about another Ghostbusters but
• 35:32
  not not a standalone or a spin-off or they're looking at another sequel yeah
• 35:38
  I've not seen a sequel I haven't seen afterlife yet but this is this thing
• 35:42
  they're making is a sequel to afterlife apparently of course it is of course it
• 35:45
  is cuz after Life After Life was just ended perfectly mhm really it just watch
• 35:51
  [ __ ] movie no it is it's a good movie man and you should watch it it what it
• 35:56
  does is capture the spirit of the the 80s that
• 36:01
  um other kind of nostalgia movies try and do um but what I think it also does
• 36:08
  is prove how much of a lightning in a bottle the original Ghostbusters was and
• 36:14
  I almost feel that this was a fluke that it was so good you know it it had no
• 36:19
  right to be this good and the sequel probably won't
• 36:24
  be yeah I just I don't understand why like it cuz it spoiler M very very minor
• 36:30
  spoilers for I know it's money but
• 36:34
  afterlife just sort of it sort of made it look like ghosts haven't been around
• 36:40
  since the 80s AG all disappeared but Spangler was still was it spingler
• 36:43
  vicman Spangler no Spangler Eon spingler he was he was going up they're going to
• 36:50
  come back and went off and was trying to work out what they're going to do and
• 36:53
  then 40 years later they do come back and that's where what the movie is but
• 36:59
  how do you make a sequel from that when it's talking about like there aren't that
• 37:05
  around yeah but yeah it was just such a nice send off to him as well and but
• 37:11
  yeah I assume you through osmosis know the ending of it absolutely not oh okay
• 37:18
  fantastic don't know don't know anything about it oh go watch it then you'll
• 37:22
  enjoy it we won't say another word about it I should watch it
• 37:26
  yeah but but I I am within my right if I wanted to I would spoil it for you
• 37:31
  because it's been more than two weeks but that would be nice he's a benevolent
• 37:36
  ruler and he will allow me a leave yeah yeah that's right wow that but if you
• 37:42
  haven't watched it um by the time the trailer comes out for the next one then
• 37:47
  I'm going to ruin it for you all right so I get a little while to go I think
• 37:49
  that's fair that's that's a long time I clicked on this article and I remember
• 37:54
  this has got Finn wolfart in it like everything else does these days and that
• 37:56
  reminded me that I wanted to mention when we with stranger things there's
• 38:01
  been a plot hole created yes that made me laugh I heard about this but I wasn't
• 38:06
  quite sure why this was an issue can you explain this to me so um at some point
• 38:12
  in um in in an early episode in season 2 right Joyce when under writer's
• 38:18
  character mentions that the 22nd of March is Will's
• 38:23
  birthday okay fine in season 4 it is is the 22nd of March no one says anything
• 38:30
  no one says anything to how do we know it's it's clearly not his birthday they
• 38:35
  do I yeah it it is made does every day have a specific calendar date that it
• 38:40
  takes place on I don't remember any of this uh there was something I forget
• 38:45
  what it was but there was there's a calendar there's a calendar showed that
• 38:49
  the was they going to go in and digitally change the calendar or are
• 38:53
  they going to change her or they not say no they're going to go in and they said
• 38:58
  they just they they've done tests and they're going to make it so that when writer says
• 39:04
  may okay yeah George Lucas style fine I I do
• 39:10
  I do like that that the do Brothers came out and went like look we do love this
• 39:14
  universe and everything we just and and it's very hard to keep track of
• 39:19
  everything and we missed it sorry just a throwaway thing but these [ __ ] people
• 39:24
  on the internet you can't you can't let them can't get one past him it's amazing
• 39:30
  that's so funny it's like when we watch Obi-Wan yeah Al I feel like they're more
• 39:36
  glaring mistakes but but I would not have caught this I don't think no like
• 39:41
  if like watching no no no imagine being you know the easiest way to fix this
• 39:46
  would be to just in the background of one of the shots put up a happy birthday
• 39:48
  will Banner yeah imagine being so into this show that you're watching season 4
• 39:54
  and all like it's during that [ __ ] shootout scene right and it pans
• 39:59
  like Mar 22 that's Will's birthday I still love that shootout
• 40:04
  Scene It fantastic that episode was the best but any scene imagine watching any
• 40:09
  scene and being like what day is it on that calendar March 22nd I can understand why
• 40:15
  the in the end of season 2 when it was all about 11 going off and hanging out
• 40:19
  with Goths in the city I can imagine like just like playing on your phone
• 40:24
  instead of paying a lot of attention but [ __ ] me not now we still agreed that was
• 40:28
  the worst part of all stranger things when she that was when I was like oh
• 40:32
  maybe this show is [ __ ] now yeah yeah they can't sustain it that was just a
• 40:37
  very weird story arc and they've never gone back to it that was supposed to be
• 40:41
  a spin-off too and they were like oh just kidding yeah I've just noticed this
• 40:46
  too I didn't see this bit before but this is Matt Duffer one of The Duffer
• 40:50
  Brothers says that in the original episode they would change the audio to
• 40:54
  make Will's birthday May 22nd because may can fit in when know were known as
• 40:58
  mouth his words which that phrasing makes me laugh but then he added this
• 41:02
  would not be the first time they changed something after releasing it and he said
• 41:06
  we've George Lucas things also that people don't know
• 41:09
  about oh yeah also referring to one own R's mouth or unrelated if if people
• 41:15
  hav't no what's the point of it well they caught it before anyone spotted it
• 41:22
  clearly that's I just think that's interesting that is interesting um I
• 41:27
  also read online that will is supposed to be gay but I didn't pick that up from
• 41:32
  the show I keep watching I'll just leave it at that oh okay I just haven't seen
• 41:36
  far enough all right yeah keep watching ah so I'm I'm going to guess
• 41:41
  that that that that poster thing he's been carrying around comes out there I
• 41:45
  mean there's a fairly graphic scene of him and vetner though I uh I mean
• 41:49
  spoilers spoilers mhm yeah the only way to feed him is someone to suck him off
• 41:55
  and was like I'm free I'm I'm trying to
• 41:58
  suck his soul out of his [ __ ] will played by that guy from uh how
• 42:05
  you being served I'm free Mr what's his name Mr
• 42:10
  humph Mr hum Mr humph yeah I used I used to really like that show got stuck in
• 42:16
  the rain and now my pussy's all wet oh God yeah that was up there with the
• 42:21
  carry-on films wasn't it of just that' 70s British comedy where it's like we'll
• 42:25
  have a [ __ ] an old lady who talks like a [ __ ] but doesn't realize she's a [ __ ]
• 42:30
  and a queer and then everyone else will just make fun of those mug into the
• 42:34
  camera and go o every time yeah yeah I used to like that show a lot when I was
• 42:39
  a kid same it was good and it was just one of those things that was just always
• 42:44
  on yes always this is back in the day when you didn't really have much of a
• 42:48
  choice there were three channels you like a lot of shows from the BBC we had
• 42:53
  three channels and then later in in our years we had five mhm yeah when we were
• 42:59
  teenagers and then Fox came out and ruined everything yeah I could for
• 43:05
  another decade after it but Kade did so I used to watch it at his house speaking
• 43:10
  of choice paralysis I've had to get over a particularly Grievous case of choice
• 43:15
  Paralysis on my retroid pocket 2 plus
• 43:20
  yes um just by virtue of the fact that and I think I mentioned this about 3
• 43:24
  weeks ago but I didn't want to go into detail because they sent me a brick that
• 43:27
  I couldn't charge up or turn on um I have a replacement now which works just
• 43:34
  fine and how many times have you played it oh it's in my pocket right now mate
• 43:39
  it goes everywhere with me I play it a lot I play a lot I play in bed before I
• 43:43
  go to sleep every night I play it in the morning when I get up I play it when I
• 43:46
  have to any any seconds I get we still what are we still talking about the
• 43:51
  console or MH the skin um yeah yeah that's right it
• 43:58
  is beige colored yeah like me um My Little for for anyone who doesn't know
• 44:04
  what we're talking about I don't know why it took me so long to decide to get
• 44:08
  one of these but I I bought one of those third party handheld consoles that you
• 44:14
  can just load robs onto so it's basically I have every console from the
• 44:19
  ' 80s and '90s now cuz you own them all yeah cuz I used my Raspberry Pi to rip
• 44:25
  off of the cartridge and all those old arcade
• 44:29
  maches yeah that's right yeah yeah um
• 44:34
  storage looking after them yeah a lot of time and money goes into that find waste
• 44:40
  of a parking space in the garage but you know it's a lot and I'm doing it because
• 44:44
  of from for posterity sake too because these old cartridges and these these
• 44:48
  like these boards they're not going to last forever so you know me ripping them
• 44:51
  and and making images out of them it's it's just it's really it's really for
• 44:55
  poster I mean you can fit them all in a pocket but it's it's not comfortable and
• 44:59
  you you I mean difficult to walk when you've got them all in there so y y um
• 45:05
  but I spent I spent the first week or so just putting on every game that I had
• 45:11
  for I know what you mean two minutes like just like oh I remember this and
• 45:15
  like I've I've got five different Batman games which one's the best like but what
• 45:21
  I had to really do is to try to get myself out of this and I think I did
• 45:25
  this when I was a kid too I'm attracted to movie tie-in titles and always shame
• 45:32
  CU they yeah they back then they were the worst they're not always but it's
• 45:37
  very rare that they're not because I'm playing a movie tie in on mine right now
• 45:42
  which I'll get to that and it's and it's definitely not awful it's one of my
• 45:45
  favorite games of all time it sort of depends on how they do it because like with
• 45:50
  ET like that was basically like the mov I'm
• 45:56
  playing in we need to cash in on a game now can you do this in this time frame
• 46:00
  and he goes well yeah I I can should I a different thing but present you with
• 46:06
  something they they would have to try and make something cuz you want to
• 46:09
  release at the same time to get the mark cross marketing thing but also half the
• 46:14
  time they didn't know what the story was going to be or they'd be very vague on
• 46:16
  the story and it's just oh there was no story to the ET on Atari game no story
• 46:21
  whatsoever there actually was walking around falling in pit you walk around
• 46:26
  falling you had to go collect all the bits of the machine so you could phone
• 46:31
  home oh is that what it was you were trying to build your machine so I I
• 46:35
  didn't even get that but this is one of those games where it's like you have to
• 46:38
  destroy a section of wall that you would have to know in advance was disposable
• 46:42
  for to even go near that part of the wall because the wall normally kills you
• 46:46
  so why would you even try to get through that one little bit Yeah there's just no
• 46:50
  logic to it but man I'm I'll tell you what I'm playing as well I finally
• 46:54
  settled on something but I'm also Keen to hear what what you've found as well
• 46:58
  cuz you've You' also got yourself you didn't get the retroid which one did you
• 47:01
  get I've got yeah so I I you mentioned you bought one and I was like oh that
• 47:05
  looks cool so I started looking at I went down this rabbit hole on on YouTube
• 47:08
  there's a YouTube channel called retro gamecore that I'm now sort of obsessed
• 47:12
  with um this guy in Hawaii who guess buys and reviews all of them and then
• 47:18
  some of them by the company and oh is that that big guy he's like quite a
• 47:22
  quite a large no no no no okay no uh I think I know who you mean but it's yeah
• 47:28
  different one I probably also subscribe to that channel yeah um but I I bought
• 47:34
  um the one I got was the because I wanted one that I could just throw in my
• 47:39
  pocket and then we'll get to it but I've realized now maybe that was a bad call
• 47:43
  because I don't go anywhere but um so I got the the RV 280 M which is an aminic
• 47:50
  product which is the little metal one which is about the size yeah yours looks
• 47:54
  very durable yeah it's it's metal it's about the size of a closed DS Light if
• 47:59
  that means anything to anybody it's like about that size um and I mean it runs I
• 48:05
  think less games than yours does yours is very powerful in that sense um yeah
• 48:11
  mine's probably a little bigger than that too I suppose yeah right okay uh I
• 48:15
  don't think I have mine down here I it's upstairs see I'm I'm just waiting to so
• 48:19
  I get a steam deck Ste keep waiting keep waiting I don't know that I want a steam
• 48:24
  deck though that's the thing I like about this though so had the you
• 48:27
  mentioned that you had too much choice right so what I did was the same as you
• 48:30
  I got it and I just threw everything on there everything in the [ __ ] Universe
• 48:34
  on there yeah if it fits and you've got it why not just put it in yeah exactly
• 48:39
  and then I realized the that how do I even find anything on this right and how
• 48:44
  am I going to pick something so what I actually did was I took everything off
• 48:48
  and I was like pick a handful of games and then if you find that you're playing
• 48:54
  it maybe put some more on later that kind of thing like come so what I've
• 48:58
  been playing on there is Indiana Jones in the fate of Atlantis oh yes
• 49:04
  scumm yeah and I love it except like I said this one is a bit small so I've
• 49:10
  ordered something else as well oh but we'll uh talk about that
• 49:15
  when it arrives okay yeah I'm okay yeah this is small this is this is small it's
• 49:21
  it's pretty small you got to you got to really you got to well see I thought
• 49:24
  that would be an advantage I could put it in my pocket cuz people people
• 49:26
  complain about some of them are a bit big and they're too I was I want to be
• 49:29
  able to pocket it but then I'm like I don't go anywhere like in my head I was like oh I
• 49:34
  could be at the DMV playing a game and like I mean I will take it you know next
• 49:39
  time I go to the DMV but how often do I go to the [ __ ] DMV like I don't know
• 49:43
  yeah yeah yeah cuz that's right you it when you go to DMV it is like the movies
• 49:48
  where you you basically that's your dat oh yeah I be there for a couple hours
• 49:51
  yeah so in that case yes I will take this thing with me but like like 99.9% of my life
• 49:57
  you Comm anymore I'm going to put money on it that when you do go you will
• 50:01
  forget to take it with you and then you'll get there and you go [ __ ] yeah
• 50:06
  the one time I got this not because of portability I got this because of
• 50:11
  reliability of the emulators because like I I think I mentioned a few weeks
• 50:17
  or a couple of months ago now um got my PC up and running and then just
• 50:21
  basically just put a bunch of emulators on it the meiger the snares or the
• 50:25
  Genesis all the old ones um half of them work half of them don't
• 50:30
  some of them work with a controller from Xbox some of them don't um yeah and and
• 50:36
  in this everything just runs the same the controls are the same pretty much
• 50:39
  across the board um there's a little bit of a learning curve to learn to stop
• 50:45
  pressing the home button when I wanted to press the select button but you know
• 50:49
  I'm kind of I'm getting good at that now when CH hot keys and stuff yeah exactly
• 50:53
  right um but I just like that it's just simple and and all the games I want to
• 50:57
  play are there totally um I'm playing Blackthorn did you guys ever play this
• 51:03
  1994 um
• 51:05
  blizzard oh I have to ring a bell it's
• 51:10
  the one where you can shoot a shotgun behind you without
• 51:15
  looking okay oh I'm looking you're a heavy metal D you got long hair and
• 51:19
  ripped jeans and a shotgun and you can shoot in front but if you press the a
• 51:23
  button you just put it behind you and shoot at whatever's behind you and it's it's pretty
• 51:28
  badass I'm looking at it now it looks cool yeah it's it's great it's just kind
• 51:32
  of like a Metroid vanard style yeah um kind of
• 51:37
  exploration plus action platformer but I'm determined to just
• 51:42
  played all the way through now because a lot of these old games for for this
• 51:45
  generation the console generations of Super Nintendo and um Sega Mega Drive
• 51:50
  are not games I've played all the way to the end so I want to start completing
• 51:54
  some of these games well also a lot of those very hard to get to the end and yeah
• 52:00
  well that's why this helps because it has safe States on it as well which um
• 52:05
  they never did back in the day yeah so so you yeah when you back in the day if
• 52:09
  you died and you ran out of lives that was that was it there was no might might
• 52:14
  have maybe couple of continues and then it was just no you got to go back to the
• 52:19
  like Alex kid in Miracle World oh man I'm just as bad now as Alex kid in
• 52:24
  Miracle world as I was back then um but I I did play a bit of Wonder Boy
• 52:30
  which I actually liked a little bit better than Alex kid I saw that recently
• 52:33
  and I do want to play Wonder Boy again Wonder Boy is [ __ ] fun you're a cavan
• 52:38
  child on a skateboard it's so hard to lose that skateboard though because you
• 52:42
  get it and then You' got to jump over fires and you yeah exactly it's gone
• 52:46
  it's gone um but that game is incredibly fun and in fact I played cuz the Master
• 52:51
  System was my console that was like that's the first console I had and I
• 52:55
  just loved it so I've gotten a lot of nostalgia for um Master System games and
• 53:01
  I still love them playing them on this because they're so simple like get from
• 53:07
  the start of the level to the end of the level without getting hit go you know
• 53:11
  like they just don't die it's simple yeah avoid everything everything will
• 53:16
  kill you jump or shoot everything
• 53:22
  go yeah good [ __ ] yeah I recommend these little devices they're great well I
• 53:29
  found something that I might be getting CU steamex doesn't look like it's coming
• 53:33
  to Australia but there this other thing a Neo a
• 53:38
  Yao there's a new one of them coming out the next one which can run game pass on
• 53:44
  it oh yes now these aren't cheap no no
• 53:48
  no this is like $1300 yeah for context my retroid cost me 250
• 53:54
  bucks Yep this will be but yes a little bit more than that but I can get
• 54:00
  achievements so I'm going to bookmark this and keep an eye for when that
• 54:05
  releases cuz I need it yeah oh you can get a fingerprint
• 54:12
  reader on it going add that what do you need that for what whatever don't worry
• 54:18
  it no don't worry about it whatever but at least this one's actually releasing
• 54:21
  in Australia so I'll have a chance cuz I yeah while I like the you having one of
• 54:27
  those retro handh holds I know I'll never use it because there's no
• 54:31
  achievements yeah Fair yeah I [ __ ] I've been like I said I've been playing
• 54:36
  fate of Atlantis and i' love that like I said I've been playing in bed too before
• 54:40
  I go to bed play some Indiana Jones and like just the idea that like when I
• 54:44
  first loaded it up cuz that game I loved that game when I was a kid like
• 54:49
  absolutely loved it it's one of the old Lucas Arts adventure
• 54:51
  games I had it on 13 floppy discs that's I'm and then the idea I now have that in
• 54:57
  a little thing that goes in my pocket is just so cool yeah I want to go back in
• 55:02
  time and show this to my [ __ ] 10-year-old just be like when you're an
• 55:06
  old man you can play these whenever you [ __ ] want it's been so long since
• 55:09
  I've played it but you won't have any time I don't remember like the plot yeah
• 55:15
  so oh yeah yeah it's challenging except especially when you get to the end mate
• 55:19
  when you're in that [ __ ] maze but I do remember because like I'm I'm I'm get
• 55:23
  to like um this thing I'm like oh you got talk to the parrot I remember that
• 55:27
  and then I I'm like I don't remember like the visuals or anything like that
• 55:31
  like there's Aztec Temple there and all that kind of stuff I'm like I don't
• 55:33
  remember that but then like the parrot's like oh the parot knows the parrot yes
• 55:38
  yes exactly and um to get the Lost dialogue of PlayDoh and I'm like I got
• 55:44
  to move the to I got to put the mayonnaise down like why do I remember
• 55:47
  that you got to smear mayonnaise on the bottom of it to I wish there were more I
• 55:52
  remember that I found a site recently Okay so so I I recently went down a
• 55:58
  [ __ ] rabbit hole that took an entire weekend of my life but that I was like
• 56:03
  so happy I found footage of a unreleased
• 56:08
  demo from Sierra for um I think it was
• 56:12
  called time Quest it was one that never came out somebody at Sierra just did a
• 56:17
  little demo on and I was like oh [ __ ] man I would have loved to have played
• 56:21
  this and then I kind of Follow that down there's there's this community of people
• 56:25
  that are making modern games in the style of the old Sierra games um so that's almost like
• 56:31
  the Sierra games that could have existed you know like parallel universe where we
• 56:36
  got heaps more um and most of them are garbage but at the same time they they
• 56:41
  still just still looks like it cuz I mean king's quest is garbage anyway the
• 56:47
  only reason it's [ __ ] awful go back and play some of it's painful yeah yeah
• 56:52
  yeah incredibly painful uh but these new ones are great too because uh so I'm I
• 56:59
  mean I haven't played it since I've got the retroid but I had bookmarked the
• 57:02
  site where people were publishing them I was just going through them one at a
• 57:04
  time and just playing through these alternate reality Sierra games just find
• 57:10
  it amazing like how many people would have played that game over the years
• 57:13
  never ever finished it yeah like finishing games has was rare back in the
• 57:19
  day because G but even today people still I don't know how don't finish
• 57:25
  games like if Halo infinite games I haven't finished I can tell you that
• 57:30
  plenty of games I of the people who own it only 48% of them have actually
• 57:35
  finished a game yeah right which just seems crazy and this is name a game that
• 57:39
  you know I've played uh Batman Arkham Asylum I finish that try
• 57:46
  again um shouldn't this shouldn't take too long unless I'm unless I'm Sky
• 57:52
  myself what's that Borderlands Borderlands or the first one I finished
• 57:57
  the others I haven't y you said Skyrim haven't finished Skyrim never never
• 58:01
  played through the main quest in Skyrim Fallout four last time I played Skyrim I
• 58:06
  accidentally completed the game cuz I didn't think I was following
• 58:11
  that Quest and then all of a sudden I finished the main quest and didn't
• 58:14
  realize it the second I'm sure I've said this before but the second playthrough I
• 58:18
  did of Skyrim was second play twice as long as my first play through and I
• 58:24
  didn't do any of the main story they're just so so easy to get lost I I finished
• 58:29
  Skyrim in that I got bored and stopped playing it but I never did the main
• 58:33
