Episode 2: The One With The Wheelchair Index · Josh and The Giant

0:00
I feel like you could take a McDonald's Sprite.
0:03
Like if I had a time machine, I would go back to about 1400,
0:06
yeah, McDonald's Sprite and just give it to like a peasant.
0:09
Watch them just collapse. Well, see, here's the thing.
0:11
They would die, right? Look, no, because they're also
0:15
that child you gave that to was going to go work in the.
0:17
I didn't. Say it was going to be a child.
0:22
And who are you giving it to? An adult?
0:24
OK, they're they just got done working in the fields for 18
0:27
hours and they're eating whatever they have to do to feel
0:29
anything. And their bodies are saying,
0:31
what is this? Now here's the thing, you may
0:33
give it to them. Have you ever seen one of the
0:34
dogs have the sparkling water? Yeah, and they're like.
0:38
That might be how that would actually be fun to give it to a
0:40
caveman. Yeah.
0:42
And then you're like Sprite and he's like, he doesn't know
0:45
what's too crispy, too crispy, too crispy.
0:48
Fair enough. Welcome to Josh and the Giant.
0:50
Welcome to Josh and the Giant episode. 2 Episode 2, which if
0:54
you've seen episode 1, which you can if you're one of our patrons
0:57
over on Patreon, you will notice a very stark difference between
1:00
the first episode and this episode.
1:02
Yep, and here we are. That's because of Matt.
1:04
That's because of Matt. That's because of our good dear
1:06
friend. Matt, that's our buddy Matt.
1:08
Matt is our new editor. Everybody say hi.
1:10
Matt, Hi, Matt. Collectively, if you don't
1:12
support our show, we have to fire Matt.
1:14
Yeah, so become a page. Got kids like guys.
1:19
Whenever we inevitably get sponsors but use the code or
1:22
click the whatever otherwise Matt has to sell one of his kids
1:26
because he doesn't want to quit here because this is his real
1:28
passion is doing this stupid podcast with us that we just
1:31
started. You have no idea.
1:33
This is probably, Yeah, Matt's favorite thing.
1:35
So don't make us fire Matt. Get things considered.
1:38
I had AI, had AI. Know you like football, Ben?
1:43
Yeah, dude, I'm a big football guy, so I.
1:46
I prepared a football bit for Ben.
1:50
It's like a kind of an update. I don't know if you've heard,
1:53
but like big football news foot bit.
1:57
OK, we're not doing that. But big, big news in the realm
2:01
of football. I don't know if you've heard
2:02
this. I'm afraid of death.
2:08
Every waking day I see my kids grow older.
2:13
It feels by the 2nd exponentially.
2:14
And it's, it's beautiful, but it reminds me of my inevitable
2:18
passing, in which the best case scenario is me on my deathbed
2:22
with my beautiful family around me as the life slowly drifts out
2:26
of me. And it's a good bit my
2:27
mortality, just. I've been wrestling a lot with
2:29
that. And the beauty of watching my
2:31
kids grow up is also just coupled with that very stark
2:34
reality of death and having to leave them on this earth.
2:39
So that's big news in football. Yeah, big football.
2:43
You know what I'm saying? I'm going to die, do.
2:48
You think a football player has ever gone Hut Hut before?
2:50
They just like stepped off the chair and then.
2:54
Off the chair. Oh, they're they're hanging
2:58
themselves. Sorry.
3:00
How many football players have actually?
3:02
Someone has to him CT. An old guy from Shawshank
3:05
Redemption did so I'm sure some. Football, a lot of football
3:07
players have, right? Yeah.
3:09
Don't make Hut do your well. I I, I think my thing serious.
3:12
Because I'm talking about my death.
3:14
I'm talking about my death. I'm not talking about I am too.
3:16
Whoa. All right.
3:18
You're going to die. You're going to die.
3:21
Dude for real, we all are. Yeah, Stark reality.
3:24
See, I've never done Zen. So whenever you're done with it,
3:26
is that just like a wet sack in your mouth?
3:28
Yeah, a wet little nicotine sack.
3:31
Wow, I didn't know where you're. Just put a lot of sacks in your
3:33
mouth. Yeah, yeah.
3:34
That other day, the other day, Josh, me and Josh and our wives
3:38
and our children went out to eat and Josh popped over the course
3:41
of the night, 7 zens. I mean, it was insane.
3:45
Yeah, but it it. So I had a Margarita at dinner
3:49
and this is probably going to make us lose every last bit.
3:52
Yeah. All right, guys.
3:53
All the Christian sponsorships. Yeah, everyone's thanks.
3:56
We're not supporting you anymore.
3:57
Yeah, I had one Margarita and it it, there's a beauty of having a
4:04
little bit of alcohol and then donas in it and I just kind of
4:07
wanted to ride that wave. Yeah.
4:08
So. Even later on in the night,
4:10
whenever you it had been hours since we had.
4:12
The I'm still riding the way just, Oh my gosh, these are
4:14
like, like Christian vices, you know?
4:16
It's like, yeah, no, I'm not gonna do drugs, but like, how
4:19
can I be an edgy Christian? I'm not gonna sleep around my
4:21
wife, but you know, I'm have a cigar, have a So there we go.
4:25
Yeah, like the video you reacted to the other.
4:26
I'm not gonna watch porn, but I'm definitely gonna.
4:30
What do they say? Play video games?
4:31
Yeah, which they play video games.
4:32
The same thing, which is insane. Yeah, put it in the same
4:34
category. Yeah, which is funny.
4:35
The number of people you'll really find what kind of fan
4:39
somebody has the immediate moment that they will just cope
4:42
for them in the comments and be like, well, OK, well, you're not
4:45
actually listening to what they're saying.
4:47
No, I am actually stupid so. Well, the, the, the dumbest
4:52
thing about Internet Christianity, OK, is we're going
4:56
there. I guess we're part of it.
4:57
Whoa. Is we're going to find this clip
5:01
that is going to get so much engagement because people don't
5:05
know the context of what we're saying, and it's got a really
5:08
radical thing. But then you'll be like, hey,
5:11
this really radical thing that you said makes no sense and it's
5:15
stupid. Oh, well, you had to know the
5:17
context. Whatever.
5:18
Hey, you didn't give us the context.
5:19
There was a, there was a video like I think we've talked about
5:22
it before, like I love horror movies, right?
5:24
There was a sermon clip that was going around that went like
5:27
stupid. I think it has like last time I
5:28
saw it, like 100, 100,000 plus likes.
5:31
And this pastor is talking about how horror movies are made by
5:35
demons. OK.
5:36
And you see all that stuff and everything.
5:37
And I just commented on there and I was like, Hey, would it
5:40
kill for the pastor to maybe cite some scripture, do
5:42
something like for, you know, biblically based so that we
5:44
could see where this is coming from.
5:46
The church who posted it replied to my comment and they're like,
5:49
maybe watch the whole sermon and you can see that.
5:51
And I'm like, you make a clip out, right?
5:53
Also no, also no, that's so it's so like lazy and kind of dumb to
5:59
be like, well, maybe if you watch the whole thing like then
6:01
don't put the clip out. I'm not going to watch your 50
6:04
minute sermon. There was a there was a
6:06
Christian rapper who I'm not going to name names.
6:09
Yeah, we don't gossip on this podcast.
6:10
We don't gossip. Gossip on this?
6:11
Well, to be fair, what is gossip?
6:14
If I'm just saying a thing that happened, that's not gossip.
6:16
No. Isn't gossip like?
6:17
Talking behind is it behind someone's back?
6:20
If we can just point to this episode and be like, you got to
6:22
watch the full episode. I don't know if it's if it's
6:24
just talking behind someone's back or if it's also like making
6:28
things up or saying things about them that you would not also say
6:30
to their face. Yeah, yeah, I think.
6:32
So you would say this to this rapper's face?
6:34
I would say to his well, because it's literally what happened.
6:36
He posted a response to some other sermon clip that was
6:39
making a fairpoint and he gave his opinion and then me and then
6:42
plenty of other people in the comments were like, no, this is
6:45
off. And then he got pressed and it's
6:47
the same exact thing of like, what do you think you're doing
6:50
online? Like we'll post this Somebody
6:53
genuinely maybe like I don't know why they had to make that
6:56
joke. I don't know why they and not to
6:58
make fun of them, but I don't know why guys had a Margarita or
7:00
take Zens. What do we and that weird why do
7:02
we why do that would do that weird will we Why would he Why
7:05
would he smoke cigars? We think that he probably blows
7:08
it in his child's face. Weird will we but somebody will
7:10
see that or even see that and her actually be like oh, do we
7:13
do we do and if as if we're going to be like what are you
7:16
doing, dude? It's like we know we're putting
7:18
it online. Yeah, we know people are going
7:20
to you know, receive this and potentially, you know, interact
7:22
with the poorly. You did a whole bit to start
7:23
this off about just a poor, you know, football player having CTE
7:28
and I guess talking about. His No, that was me.
7:31
I was talking about my. Own death, Josh, you only played
7:34
rugby in high school, so that's not that's not lying.
7:39
I did not play rugby. Yes, you did high.
7:40
School. I mean, you went to school in
7:42
Australia. Tell them right do your I'm from
7:45
the down and thank you. This might come as a shock to a
7:48
lot of you. I I've been posing as an
7:51
American for probably about them last 17 years from Sydney,
7:55
Australia. I am, I am.
7:59
Yeah, Australians. They, they are.
8:02
I I want this to segue into our first conversation this evening,
8:05
please. Australians are the horniest
8:07
people I think just on the planet.
8:09
I want to go ahead and throw that out there.
8:11
Well, they have such an aggressive language, so you've
8:13
got to imagine that that translates.
8:15
Very promiscuous. People there but well, wow, I
8:17
wasn't even going to go there, but maybe.
8:18
Probably I just that's, that's the vibe.
8:20
I get think about, like, what you have to do to, like, really
8:24
get your blood pumping whenever you live in a place where
8:26
everything can kill you. Yeah.
8:27
And the weather is terrible. And I thought the.
8:30
Weather was gorgeous. Well, Australia, what I mean by
8:32
weather is terrible is like there will just be a sandstorm
8:34
and then like all of a sudden it'll just be yes, are we
8:37
talking about? Australia Australia like the.
8:39
Country. It probably depends on where you
8:40
live. In Australia maybe.
8:41
So literally anywhere else, yeah, no.
8:44
Are we doing that thing where we generalize by?
8:46
Like I was going to say, I have 0 Australian friends.
8:49
I don't have any Australian, why would I ever be a friend with an
8:51
Australian? But I'm just saying.
8:53
They're horny. It's.
8:53
A hellhole. Exactly.
8:54
And like you said, they're promiscuous.
8:57
People I just, I just feel like, yeah.
8:59
But all that to be said, yeah, yeah, yeah.
9:00
We were talking about this earlier in the week.
9:03
The these a debate another clip that we saw of married Christian
9:08
couples listening to worship music while they have sex.
9:12
Yeah, and I'm not going to. Lie dog.
9:16
Yeah, it's crazy. It's insane.
9:18
I feel like it would throw me off.
9:20
Do you feel, do you feel comfortable enough with me and
9:23
Matt, who you just met in our audience, who we've met none of
9:26
them to let us know? Like what do you know?
9:28
What are you throwing on the mix?
9:29
Do you have a mix? Because I'll be straight up dog.
9:34
I don't. I don't even have a.
9:35
Mix. I didn't, I'm not gonna lie, I
9:37
didn't until the last like year, year and a half.
9:39
But you. What's up?
9:40
Can we elephant in the room? Yeah, it is Elevation Worship
9:44
and I do put that on. No.
9:49
Oh. Stop.
9:49
Stop messing with me. It's not.
9:51
It's not Elevation Worship. Because I was going to say you
9:54
have a black wife. So of course like like what I, I
9:59
would say from the standpoint of like, you know.
10:02
Well, no, I don't actually no finish any of these.
10:05
I'm a corny. I'm a corny white guy.
10:06
You want me to have a mix as a sex playlist?
10:09
Sure, come. On is this like you think that's
10:11
exclusively like more of a black I?
10:12
Don't think it's exclusively but I feel like when you think.
10:15
I don't lie to you, now that I think about it, it does.
10:17
That does, yeah. You'd see that more likely in a
10:20
BET movie than a Hallmark movie. Yeah, yeah.
10:22
And the gentleman that we're running the podcast for, the
10:24
video that we saw were black gentlemen.
10:26
So of course they probably have more experience with like a
10:29
bedroom playlist. Then again, sure, my saltine
10:31
cracker. Self does.
10:32
You put on The Andy Griffith Show right in the background.
10:35
It's just something black. And white, by golly, we put on
10:38
the Evening News and we're gonna.
10:40
Hey man, whenever I'm getting crazy I put on The Rifleman and
10:42
I just. When we've got CNN on just so
10:45
current events or C-SPAN, it's just the Congress, just yeah,
10:50
anything stock market. I'm gonna keep up, but I think
10:54
it's crazy to listen to worship music in a time like that with
10:59
your spouse because no rhythm like to a worship song, really.
11:06
It's like, first of all, if we're just going to go there,
11:10
yeah, worship songs are way too long now.
11:13
And I get like the spirits moving.
11:15
Yeah. You think I've got 17 minutes?
11:18
That's true. What are you going to put on
11:19
Gyra? And you're just like, you're
11:21
like what? OK.
11:22
Come on, I'm going to listen to what's that one song, Father's
11:24
Room. I'm just going to listen to like
11:25
the spirit for like 30 minutes. I'm going to get.
11:28
But here's a real, a real thing. And I mean, there's genuinely,
11:31
yeah, if if you were put in like a situation where somebody was
11:34
like, you have to, you know, you and the wife, like, gun to my
11:39
head or whatever, I'm just doing this metaphoric play.
11:41
I'm metaphorically. They're putting a.
11:42
Gun, whatever. Well, not but somebody, maybe
11:45
they have money or whatever and they're like, hey, for 1,000,000
11:47
bucks, pick a worship song. What do you think you're leaning
11:49
towards? Because I'm not going to lie to
11:50
the first one that comes to my mind.
11:52
Wait, can you say it at the same time?
11:54
It's not the same, but we can 123 Oceans OK Lion Lion by
12:00
Brandon Lake and Chris Brown. Yeah, Brandon Lake.
12:02
See, because here's the thing, I really do think if you're going
12:05
towards anybody, you go towards more of like the white guy with
12:08
soft rock. Yeah.
12:10
Like Brandon Lake, Where's like, yeah.
12:13
You know what I'm saying for sure?
12:15
Yeah, fair enough. Yeah, but you're going oceans.
12:19
It's the first one that came to mind.
12:20
OK, probably a horrible choice, but that's why, that's why we're
12:24
not going to do it. You know.
12:26
It's just, it did also that there's part of me that thinks
12:29
too, like, if, if I put this on while I'm being intimate with my
12:33
wife, the minute I go to church on Sunday, I'm going to play
12:36
that for worship. I'm just going to be like, like
12:39
flashbacks, like. Here's one of the benefits of
12:41
doing more of like a Brandon Lake song.
12:43
They don't play Brandon or like they're never playing.
12:44
Not at my church, you know what I mean?
12:46
So yeah, I'm never hearing that song again.
12:48
Off topic about Brandon Lake, I'm glad we're talking about
12:50
this. Do you ever like check your
12:52
Facebook? Rarely.
12:55
There's like this thing on Facebook now of AI generated
13:00
pictures of Brandon Lake going on the view, going on a podcast
13:05
with Erica Kirk, like things that have never happened.
13:09
And then the story is like this dramatic, like the one that I
13:13
saw most recently, Like, sit your 35 year old self down,
13:17
Erica Kirk told off Brandon Lake.
13:21
Yeah. But he didn't waver.
13:23
Brandon took a step back. And then he responded.
13:26
My 35 years of life have been to glorify the Lord.
13:28
Like this dramatic story that never happened.
13:31
Yeah. And they pop off like, thousands
13:34
of likes. Everyone's grandma being like,
13:37
oh, Amen. So true.
13:38
Yeah. And it's just so obviously fake.
13:40
Yeah, it's like Christian fan fiction.
13:42
It's Christian fan fiction, but it's always Brandon Lake.
13:44
Is he paying someone to do this? No, I just think he really is
13:48
for a lot of people, especially like in the worship like space,
13:51
he's like Superman or like he literally like he can do no
13:54
wrong and he'll just, he'll collab with anybody.
13:57
It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter the song or
13:59
whatever. People are like, Oh my gosh,
14:00
it's so holy and I love it. He'll do a song with Jelly Roll.
14:03
He'll do a song with Nick Jonas. He'll do the song with $0.50,
14:06
which I would actually love that.
14:07
Did he? He didn't do a song.
14:09
That would be so. Sad.
14:11
Brandon Hickman they do. Said it, Christian, maybe,
14:14
technically. I'm sure I've seen $0.50 with a
14:17
big old cross. I'm sure he went to church a lot
14:19
as a kid. Sure.
14:21
Right. But I don't know if he would
14:22
like, I don't know how much he's like reading his Bible.
14:25
Yeah. He's a great trash talker,
14:27
though. The way he makes fun of Floyd
14:28
Mayweather is the way he makes fun of Job Rule.
14:31
Whenever he tells the story about, Oh my gosh, buying a
14:34
bunch of Job Rule tickets on Groupon, he's like, they were
14:36
like 10 bucks a ticket. So he bought like an entire like
14:38
row front section. Beautiful, beautiful.
14:40
When he tell Floyd he donate like $50,000 to a nonprofit if
14:44
he'd read a page of a Harry Potter book meant.
14:47
Incredible 50 No, but yeah, definitely.
14:49
I've seen those Brandon Lake things and it's like the View 1
14:53
is always the funniest to me cuz the AI, I feel like the AI
14:57
artwork especially and stuff like that, it can only do so
15:00
many emotions. So it's either they're like, or
15:02
they're like, and it's, yeah, screaming at like an elderly
15:07
Whoopi Goldberg. Yeah, he's like you liberal
15:10
piece of garbage. And like you're saying, they go,
15:12
they go better and more viral than anything from this podcast
15:15
we'll ever do. Should we start making up fake
15:17
stories about ourselves like for Facebook?
15:19
I think we should. I think we should raid the view
15:21
whenever they're live and just actually do it.
15:23
I think that would. Well, then we get arrested.
15:27
Go to jail. Get a lawyer.
15:29
Can you practice law? Do you do that?
15:32
OK, perfect. I was arrested.
15:32
So Paul was, whoa, if we took that hard, that hard right turn,
15:38
we were just like, man, you want to talk about persecution?
15:40
Podcast in prison. Christian, Oh my God.
15:43
Let us have mics in here. Oh yes, that'd be great.
15:47
Sorry that was left-handed I I normally give better adapt than
15:50
that. I was just.
15:51
I don't do it with my. Left hand.
15:52
Are we both left-handed? Yeah, but I mean, no one else
15:54
is, so I've just had to learn to.
15:55
Yeah, exactly bro. Shake hands with the riot.
15:57
This to see this so much. So much fun.
16:00
It's good. Yeah, I love that.
16:02
That's like the most cultured thing I can do.
16:04
I feel like yeah is I can give dab.
16:07
You also say, well, we don't have.
16:08
To say that no, no, I'm sorry, I.
16:09
Don't need to get into that. So there was news on recently
16:13
about what about. Not the man.
16:16
Just keep going. Stirs meeting with the
16:18
government about aliens, right? Yeah, We wanted to talk about
16:21
that. Yeah.
16:22
And for anybody who doesn't know, basically very Long story
16:25
short, I want to say it was literally like 5.
16:27
Pastors, if not, which I don't get the border situation, like
16:30
why are they talking about like it's like it's been addressed
16:34
with all administrations like illegal aliens.
16:37
It's just kind of why pastors, you know?
16:40
Yeah, so they got like 5 or like half a dozen pastors together.
16:43
And for some reason they, and this has been in like everything
16:46
I've read about it, they met up at an Airbnb in Tennessee, of
16:50
course, which because I was trying to think about it
16:53
legitimately, I guess you wouldn't just be like, let's
16:55
talk about this at the White House or Area 51.
16:58
But the government was like, let's get an Airbnb like
17:01
Nashville. They bring all these pastors in
17:04
and they tell them there's going to be some stuff exposed soon
17:08
about aliens and it's going to rock the Christian faith and a
17:12
lot of your people are going to fall away.
17:14
So you bet no do it too. So you better get your doctrine
17:18
sound. Yeah.
17:19
And then that's it. And then I don't.
17:21
They didn't tell them anything else.
17:23
Which why just Christians like are when they when they announce
17:28
that aliens exist, are Muslims just going to be like.
17:31
That works. Yeah.
17:32
We are black. Yeah, that, that.
17:33
Fits into our Yeah, we're good. Like, you know that Well, I
17:37
don't even know if we can genuinely say his name online.
17:40
But like Baltimore the guy, if we can't, it's honestly dude.
17:43
The guy that. He shouldn't be named it.
17:46
It's in their beliefs that he like cracked the moon.
17:49
So like the idea of like, did you not know that?
17:51
He cracked the moon. Either cracked or split the
17:53
moon. Yeah, yeah.
17:54
It was cracked, this crazy dog. Cracked the moon dog.
18:00
So anyway, so. So yeah, that's what's going on
18:03
and a bunch of people are reacting.
18:04
To it I knew they cracked a nine year old.
18:08
Last episode, but yeah, man, so they so they invite them out and
18:13
they just give this like apparently like very like
18:16
foreboding warning and then they're just like bye then they
18:20
left and then all these pastors come out and they're like this
18:22
is what happened everybody listen.
18:25
And my view of what happened is that a couple people in the
18:29
government decided to be some silly billies one day, OK?
18:33
And they were like, let's get these evangelical charismatic
18:36
people, you silly billies, Airbnb in freaking Franklin, TN
18:40
or wherever they. Were that's where Christians?
18:42
Live, they're literally and they were like, let's just give them
18:45
like a little bit of whatever information.
18:47
Sure. Like stuff's about to get crazy.
18:50
And then they're like, definitely tell your
18:52
congregants. Don't worry about the files,
18:55
don't worry about gas. We need to put all this on the
18:58
back burner. Forget the Epstein.
18:59
Files. We'll talk about it later.
19:01
What war there's? Gas prices about who cares do.
19:03
You care at all if there's aliens like real spill and not
19:08
like aliens that are demons, whatever.
19:09
But I mean, like if on TV and you knew that it was real
19:13
somehow, there was fully a reptile man, I seriously feel
19:17
like I'd be like wow. And then I would go.
19:20
Anyways, see, that's, that's so that's The thing is I think I
19:25
think about like the Cuban missile crisis some kind
19:27
sometimes, OK, Right. How hard must it have been to go
19:32
to work during the Cuban Missile Crisis just knowing, hey, we
19:35
might get noobs, you know? So I think about events like
19:37
that in terms of would I still go to work the next day and if
19:42
they announced that lizard people existed.
19:44
Yeah, yeah, If it's on a Tuesday night, I'm still clocking in on
19:47
Wednesday morning especially, like, nothing.
19:49
Changes. They're not doing anything.
19:51
They've been here the whole like viltromites, they're just kind
19:53
of hanging out. Literally, as far as we know,
19:54
they're just flying and kind of screwing around.
19:57
Yeah. And then like once every 30
19:59
years wherever something crashes.
20:00
We like somehow caught one of them.
20:02
I forget who said it first, but it's almost like America is like
20:04
their Las Vegas. It's like where they go to party
20:07
and they get a. Little too messed up and then
20:09
all of a sudden they're just in the desert and they're like the
20:11
lizard people. Just bachelor and Bachelorette
20:13
parties to America. And then whenever people just
20:15
disappear, like that's just what it is, sometimes they get a
20:18
little crazy. I had too much of.
20:19
Picking them up, they're putting stuff in their butt and then
20:21
they're like, I don't know what we're supposed to get out of
20:23
there. Yeah, we know everything.
20:24
We masters like travel. You think we don't know what
20:26
they are? You know what I mean?
20:27
I. Think aliens would love?
20:31
I'm trying to think of things that aliens would love.
20:33
And I feel like like good fried food and cigarettes are like at
20:38
the top of the list. Like they probably got out here
20:41
and someone, you know, hey, man, you know, bum a cigarette.
20:44
They're like, what? What is a cigarette, fellow
20:47
human? If you gave an alien just like a
20:49
dozen burrito tacos and you're just like, eat that now and
20:53
they're like. We're saved.
20:58
They're like, hey, wait, wait. Either they die or they're like,
21:01
hey, we've got to preserve the civilization.
21:03
Remember the movie Signs? I love that movie.
21:06
You don't know what that is, Signs.
21:08
Do you remember Signs? Mel Gibson.
21:10
Thank you. Mel Gibson.
21:12
I'm not allowed to watch anything Mel Gibson except for
21:14
Passion of the Christ. Well, you're missing out because
21:16
Mel Gibson. Hey, you got a fan right here,
21:19
but I'll spoil it, I guess for you or anybody who hasn't seen
21:22
it. At the end of Signs, the way
21:24
that we defeat the aliens is that the aliens have a weakness
21:27
to water. Literally.
21:29
What a stupid. Weakness.
21:30
It's so stupid it literally like burns them like acid it but it
21:34
but now it sounds stupid. It works in the movie and it
21:36
also leads to a great like alien beat down seat at the other
21:40
where they're literally beating it with a bat and dumping water
21:42
on it. But if, like we found out that
21:44
these aliens for some reason, their weakness was like, but he
21:48
had tacos or just maybe Mexican food in general.
21:51
If. But he is.
21:52
I don't know. It is.
21:53
Thank you, Matt. This is gonna.
21:55
It's so useful, dude. Yeah.
21:57
Yeah. Well, you're.
21:57
Just trying to roll the Rs like is that was.
21:59
It baria baria baria baria. Well, I mean, how many rolls do
22:03
you put in? Bati, how many rolls do you put
22:04
like? How do you say Baria Taco?
22:07
Baria Baria. Oh, I knew I was saying it
22:10
wrong. Baria, right?
22:12
Thank. You like Barr?
22:14
It doesn't matter, dude. It's it's how you say that,
22:17
yeah. I'm not killing any aliens.
22:19
We read the same. OK, well, I'm saying an alien
22:23
comes up and they knock like with their weird knock.
22:28
And I'm like, oh God. Here we go.
22:30
Oh dude, I'm. Coffee.
22:32
Yeah. And I'm like, take this, dump
22:35
it. And they're like, yeah, yeah.
22:38
And then like the back of their brain just blows out.
22:40
That's a really imaginative scenario.
22:43
Let me bring it to you in real life, right?
22:45
Something that we can actually test.
22:47
I I have an idea for a show Back story.
22:50
I went to Pasadena, Houston like area a couple years ago with my
22:54
buddy Hiro in college. The community is like 99% Latino
22:58
Asian guy. No, he's Latino.
22:59
OK community is like 99% Latino. He took me to eat some of the
23:04
best food I have ever had. Can't order in English.
23:08
And it got me to thinking, I would love to fly 30 British
23:11
people people out, stick them in Pasadena, Houston area and be
23:15
like you can only eat this type of food for a week and just see
23:19
if you can make it like Mr. B style.
23:21
Give them like 500 grand. Just see who taps out.
23:24
I think they would just. Wow, you think the spice?
23:27
I think the spice they'd be like oy oy oy above is a bit too
23:32
tingly on my Willy. You're not going for that.
23:33
Never mind. You start staying away.
23:35
And I was like, OK. I know I'm still Australian.
23:37
I'm not that good at. That's true, That's true.
23:39
No, I think that'd be a great. Australian thank you, but that
23:42
would be a great YouTube video. Do you know 30 British people
23:45
that British people to fly out and also we have to give them
23:48
$500,000 each? Do you know anyone with
23:50
$500,000? You Well, but here's the thing.
23:53
30 So do you know anyone with $15 million who's willing to
23:56
give it? To no, no, we'll make them.
23:57
Split it. Make them split it.
23:58
Oh OK, it's much more doable I guess.
24:01
Invest $3000 potentially you. Yeah.
24:04
Do you want to sponsor a podcast to give money to British people
24:07
to eat spicy food for a month? How about long Was it?
24:10
Yeah. We could do it.
24:10
We could stretch it out, get a ton of.
24:12
You just have to put them up, right?
24:14
Or did they have to figure that out?
24:16
Hey. Figure out where you're staying.
24:17
I don't know why. This just came in mind.
24:19
Did you ever have a thing in high school where we called
24:22
them? What was it?
24:23
It was like homeless nights or something like that.
24:26
And it was a way to like, raise money to help local homeless
24:28
people or homeless shelters. But it was this whole fundraiser
24:32
thing where you raise a certain amount of money and like, the
24:36
kids would like essentially pretend to be homeless for a
24:38
night. And the more money you raise,
24:40
the the more like homeless accessories you got.
24:44
So if you raise a certain amount of money, OK, then you got like
24:46
a box. If you raise a certain amount of
24:48
money, then you also got a like newspaper.
24:52
If you raise a certain amount of money, then you got a blanket
24:54
that did. Did you have anything like that
24:55
in your high school? No.
24:57
OK. Well, I'm just saying that dude,
25:00
it was a way that like they got. But did y'all actually just
25:02
like, sleep on the street for a night?
25:03
It wasn't like in the street street.
25:04
So it was at our high school and they would do it like on the
25:07
grounds of the school. OK, But they yeah, there was
25:09
like a giant courtyard that we had in our high school and the
25:12
kids would like stay out there for the night.
25:15
That's. Interesting.
25:17
See, because here's The thing, is it, is it insensitive or
25:22
because I think it's now that I think about it, I think about
25:24
it, it's kind of cool. It's not insensitive because I
25:27
feel like when I hear someone correct, like, oh, we don't call
25:31
them homeless, they're temporarily unhoused people like
25:33
I, So no, I don't. Shut up.
25:35
Yeah, like shut up. Like hey I.
25:39
Don't think it's insensitive, I don't hear any homeless people
25:41
complaining about it. I just think it's crazy that you
25:44
guys just post up in the parking.
25:46
Lot like sophomores just like sleeping on like the kid that
25:49
couldn't like raise my and we would do it.
25:50
I want to say we did it probably in like February or so.
25:54
So I mean, it was like a little chilly because that was because
25:56
you wanted the the incentivization.
25:59
You had to like, hey, man, you want that blanket, OK, you
26:01
better raise a certain amount of money.
26:02
Yeah, and it's a different. Time thing, yeah.
26:05
Different time. I don't see kids sleeping
26:07
outside these days. Oh dude.
26:09
For you kids and they also they wouldn't be like hey, homeless
26:12
night, which I feel like it also probably wasn't 'cause that
26:15
called that, but homeless night, homeless night.
26:18
We should do that. We'll do a homeless night.
26:19
We'll live stream. Homeless night Challenge one.
26:22
100% of the proceeds go to us, yes.
26:25
But because we're going to do the night.
26:27
Because we're raising awareness, though.
26:28
Right. And homeless people should get
26:30
homes and podcast equipment and stuff and then they can do
26:32
homeless night. I want to, I do want a homeless
26:34
person podcast. Like real Pull yourself up by
26:37
your bootstraps. Have you ever heard of a radio
26:39
man? Yes, you've heard Radio Man.
26:41
Radio Man, that's actually a really cool story.
26:43
Thinking of the movie radio. No, so that's not it.
26:46
So Radio Man is like a famous homeless guy in New York who is
26:51
apparently like very well known in like the film industry, Okay.
26:54
Because so much stuff is shot in New York and stuff.
26:56
And he's been in a lot of films. He's been in like some Adam
26:58
Sandler movies, Tom Hanks and stuff like that.
27:02
But apparently he's like, he's like very knowledgeable about
27:05
film, about the history of film and stuff like that.
27:07
And yeah, he's like a local legend.
27:10
He's like a cultural icon. Radio.
27:11
Man, and he's still homeless. I think now he.
27:14
Because at this point, it feels like a choice.
27:16
He has an Instagram I came across that the other day.
27:18
He has like 100. You can have an Instagram, but
27:20
you can't have a house really. You know how I found his
27:22
Instagram? It was a it was a post about
27:24
him. He was in the comments.
27:26
Somebody was like, oh man, because they were talking about
27:28
all the movies he's been in and he was somebody was like, oh, I
27:30
hope he's gotten like paid to be, which is like, yeah, surely.
27:34
But and then he replied and he was like, yes, I'm a member of
27:38
SAG. He's.
27:40
Got He's got a place, he's got a place.
27:42
You know what it is? I bet he dude, he does.
27:43
He does homeless night every night.
27:46
Every night's homeless. People are like radio man and
27:48
he's like, hey, what's going on? And he goes home and he like
27:50
slicks his hair back. You ever seen those videos of
27:53
like pan handlers who are like do it all day and then they'll
27:56
go in and hop in like their bends and I I, yes, I 100.
27:59
Percent believe that. Bro I one. 100% believe that.
28:01
I forget where I saw it but there was a guy who was like
28:04
panhandler talking about he makes like 80 grand a year.
28:06
Yeah, which is, I think we've said to each other, the video of
28:09
the guy in the wheelchair who's literally like, yeah.
28:12
And they're like, come on. Then he's like.
28:14
He was like, what can you? Sorry?
28:17
I was like, Matt was telling me something.
28:19
He was like. What?
28:19
What's up, Matt? He's just a guy in a wheelchair.
28:22
Yeah, which, so it's a video. You can find it.
28:27
But the guy's like, and the person talking to him is like,
28:30
come on. And he's like, OK.
28:32
It's like, Oh my God, yeah, dude.
28:34
And then like the next thing they cut to him like, and he's
28:38
out there like in the middle of traffic.
28:39
Yeah, yeah. And people are like, here's 5
28:40
bucks. Yeah, like get out of the way.
28:42
That's crazy. He makes so much money.
28:44
He. Makes stupid money.
28:45
Which does he have to be in the wheelchair or can you walk?
28:49
That maybe that would well, Howard, what would that look
28:53
like if he was walking and. What I'm saying, he like
28:55
pretends like, oh, I need this wheelchair and then like sun
28:58
goes down. He kind of.
29:00
Guy that's like his Batman. Yeah, he's just like, I'm going
29:03
to walk home now, regular guy. I'm homeless.
29:05
I'm homeless. It's homeless night.
29:08
You're doing more of a bat. I'm doing more.
29:11
Mine is more like monster. Who is monster Batman?
29:14
You know that. I know that's not a thing, you
29:16
know. It is man, man bat.
29:19
What the heck is that? I feel like we're just, we,
29:22
we've barely talked about anything that we wanted to talk
29:24
about. So we should next talk about.
29:26
Speaking of the guy in the wheelchair Wheelchair Index, the
29:30
wheelchair Wheelchair index. Thank you.
29:32
The title of this episode, by the way.
29:34
This was this is from a a friend of ours and I have to pull up
29:38
instant out to like give him proper credit because he's in a
29:42
wheelchair and this was something.
29:43
That naughty Mike. Oh, sorry.
29:46
What? What?
29:47
What are you talking about? I don't know fill fill fill this
29:50
with with an ad read while I do this.
29:53
Hi, do you have to shut up? Sorry, you have to shut your
29:56
mouth if I'm doing sad read. OK.
29:59
Are you a fan? Do you like Jonathan Rumi?
30:02
Do you like The Chosen? Did you know there's going to be
30:05
another season of the Chosen? You should.
30:08
You should go watch that now on what is it Angel Studios app.
30:15
Yeah, you know, I asked Jonathan Rumi if I could wash his feet.
30:18
It's the only interaction I've had with him really.
30:20
Didn't go. Was this in person?
30:22
Yes. So this was like a couple years
30:24
ago at the Jesus Revolution premiere.
30:26
For some reason, the studio for that liked me enough to be like,
30:31
hey, yeah, yeah, whatever. Yeah.
30:34
And so they were like, we're gonna fly you out.
30:36
You're gonna do red carpet interviews.
30:37
And it was me and our good friend Lacey Abercrombie, who we
30:41
have an episode with that we're gonna release.
30:44
It's in Hopper. If you wanna see that early,
30:46
become a patron, patron. Remember, we got Lacey and
30:49
actually we could pair that with the Jonathan Roomy.
30:51
Episode if you want. True.
30:53
Yeah, it's true. Well, because Chosen one, that's
30:54
why I did it. Was like his tour, whatever
30:56
season, it wasn't a great interview because he had to do
30:59
it to promote the new season of Chosen.
31:00
But we still, we're happy to have Jonathan on, yeah.
31:02
We did it on the day of the crucifixion scene.
31:05
So he was just fake messed up. I think some of those real
31:09
blood. I don't know, I think Dallas
31:12
just beat just beat the hell out of.
31:14
Him sun goes down in Dallas. Did you see the the The Chosen
31:19
ad on Instagram where they were looking for buff Asian men?
31:22
No. There was a casting call for the
31:24
Chosen, It's Angel Studios, and it was like the wheelchair.
31:27
Index but Asian men. Anyways, this this is, I know, I
31:30
know. This is our buddy Jamie, Jamie
31:32
Carrington, who is in a wheelchair.
31:36
He was just talking about like wheelchair, like, that's why
31:41
it's OK, because we got this we're we're stealing this from a
31:44
guy in a wheelchair. So it's OK.
31:45
Yeah. But he kind of just brought up
31:47
the idea of like, you would treat someone differently if
31:52
they were like in a wheelchair. And it got me to think of like
31:55
what people like, genuinely get hates and they deserve it, AKA
31:59
people that we would just still hate on if they were in a
32:01
wheelchair. And what people is it kind of
32:03
like I we, we're doing too much. And if they were in a
32:06
wheelchair, we'd be like, whoa, let's step off a little bit
32:08
here. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
32:09
You know, so do you have somebody on so like?
32:13
Top of mind. Erica Kirk.
32:15
Yeah. Let's just get real.
32:16
Yeah? Are you sure?
32:19
I like the Drewski skit. Some of it's pretty funny.
32:22
Wow dude, that's really insensitive.
32:25
It was funny. Drewski.
32:26
Drewski can wear a white face. It's OK.
32:28
Yeah. If Erica, Erica Church.
32:31
If Erica Kirk was in a wheelchair though, yeah, I feel
32:34
like she wouldn't get this much like Drewski wouldn't do a bit
32:37
about her if she was in a wheelchair.
32:38
No, if she was in a wheelchair and she didn't do like the thing
32:40
with her eyes, she would be a totally different.
32:43
I think that was AI that one video.
32:45
No, I'm not talking about that one.
32:46
Not the most recent. One.
32:47
No, but she does. Yeah, she does help.
32:49
But like, well, like the old interview she did whenever she
32:51
first publicly addressed the candidates, and she's like,
32:54
stop, stop that. It's like, come on, dude, again,
32:57
you're not going back to Batman. You're not Batman.
32:59
But if she was doing that and there were some big wheels over
33:01
here and she was like, stop. You'd be like, oh, you know,
33:04
yeah, like. I think it would help a lot.
33:07
So she like, so she passes the wheelchair index.
33:09
It's like OK. But here's the thing, I think
33:11
Erica Kirk is slightly difficult because there's tons of people
33:15
who don't dislike her. I think the dislike of her even
33:20
because, look, you got the Candace fans who were like, she
33:23
potentially took part in, like, what happened?
33:26
And then you have other people who I think we're probably more
33:28
aligned with who are like, there's been some like, weird
33:31
ways to kind of mourn a little bit.
33:33
You know, you're going out to, like, WrestleMania for your
33:35
husband. Yeah, who passed.
33:37
But if she was in a wheelchair, yeah, I'd be like, I'm sorry.
33:40
I'm. Just saying the people who like
33:42
even are harsh on it would still be like.
33:44
Here's the thing about the wheelchair index.
33:45
I think it also matters. How did they get put in it?
33:48
Oh, because if if straight up if Erica Kirk fell down a flight of
33:53
stairs versus got hit by a car, I have a different reaction.
33:58
Well, that's a bad guy for. That so that's why.
34:00
So that's actually an interesting addition to the
34:02
wheelchair index because like Greg Abbott in a wheelchair.
34:06
How did that happen By the? Way it was Ding like a a a stick
34:09
or a squirrel fell out of a tree on top of him.
34:12
That's how he that's like his story of how he got paralyzed.
34:15
So a bit no. No, this is being.
34:17
This is a squirrel. Jumped on his head and now he's.
34:19
Legitimately, Matt, can you look this up like how Greg at it got,
34:23
but that's the whole thing is like.
34:25
It still sucks. Literally just the ability to do
34:27
that at worth. That's so sick.
34:28
That's 4. At 2675, foot oak tree snapped
34:33
and fell on his back while he was jogging.
34:37
So that is not a squirrel jumping on his head.
34:40
I. I couldn't remember.
34:41
I could remember this. One so a tree fell on him right?
34:44
That's but that's that's that's sketchy.
34:47
That's true. That's sketchy.
34:48
How do you see a 70? 5 foot tree falling and it's
34:51
like the movies where you just look at it and you're like oh
34:53
boy, it's. Been in Austin Powers with the
34:57
with the whatever. Exactly.
34:59
It's like instead of stepping aside, I'm going to try to
35:01
outrun the tree. So it sucks.
35:03
Heart goes out to Greg habit. That said, because it's like you
35:07
slightly, I don't care, but like the the, the Democratic
35:12
Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett calls them Hot Wheels.
35:16
That's pretty funny. That's.
35:17
Very funny and also that's so messed up, especially now that I
35:21
know that a giant tree fell on him.
35:23
Yeah, that's, I'm not gonna lie, I thought it was a stick or a
35:25
squirrel. Yeah, I thought, but let's talk
35:29
about somebody who it doesn't work for.
35:31
So very famously, we talked about this the other day.
35:33
Two guys who as soon as they started getting allegations
35:36
thrown at them, all of a sudden in court, they had to be in
35:39
wheelchairs. Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby,
35:43
they were walking around. I mean, they were old dudes,
35:44
fair enough, but they were walking around and then all of a
35:46
sudden, oh, all these women are pointing out the evil things
35:49
I've done. Oh, my wheels.
35:51
Nobody cares. No one cares.
35:52
Nobody cares at. All they don't pass the
35:54
wheelchair. Index.
35:54
Not at all. They fail it.
35:55
And even more so, stolen valor. They don't even need the
35:57
wheelchair. Well, yeah, yeah, probably like
36:00
a stolen valor. Like, Harvey Weinstein pulls up
36:03
to court in, like, Marine outfit.
36:05
Like, I serve time in a wheelchair.
36:07
It's like, all right, brother, Stolen valor.
36:08
Yeah. So yeah, they don't pose up.
36:11
In an outfit from one of the movies he produced and he's
36:13
like, you can't handle the truth.
36:15
And then he's just. Here's another one Michael Tate
36:20
Wheelchair Index. I'm trying to, I'm trying to
36:23
remember the things that Michael Tate did, because here's the
36:25
thing. Well.
36:25
We have some stories. Well, we do have some stories,
36:28
but we don't talk about that. But that's but that's lesser
36:30
compared to the others that we did.
36:31
Sure, sure. Did his stuff include underage
36:36
people? I don't know, Matt.
36:40
Matt's search history is going to be crazy.
36:45
But here's the thing. So I'll just say this before
36:46
Matt gives us an answer. It does involve it then it
36:49
doesn't change the thing. Oh yeah, and how old does it say
36:53
how old he was? Older than 16, OK.
36:58
OK, OK, yeah, I should not. Oh no.
37:01
Cut that part out. Why does it matter, baby?
37:03
Why does it matter? Why does it matter?
37:04
What does it matter? No, because a very similar
37:06
person like Kevin Spacey. Yep.
37:08
No, not that doesn't help anybody.
37:10
No Michael Tate, it doesn't work.
37:12
Doesn't work. 16 which I'm glad to do that.
37:15
Thank God we had met because if it Oh my gosh, because I might
37:18
have just said to him passed it, but he doesn't pass it.
37:20
So people that pass it so far. Erica Kirk.
37:23
Erica Kirk. That's it.
37:25
Just keep that Christian, Carl. Lentz, Yeah.
37:29
But I feel like Carl Lentz is kind of all right.
37:31
Like the people who are still mad at Carl Lentz are kind of, I
37:34
think, genuinely like people who struggle with, like,
37:36
unforgiveness. Yeah.
37:37
Because I mean, like, his white construction.
37:40
Well, or even like the Super like legalistic crowd, people
37:45
who like didn't like him already and then now he's kind of had a
37:47
bit of a comeback and they're like, what about the thing you
37:49
did? Even though like the people that
37:51
he sent against have forgiven him.
37:52
Yeah. And his he does the whole thing
37:54
with his. Wife no you didn't cheat on me.
37:55
Like horrible situation. You definitely probably
37:58
shouldn't be in ministry. So if he was in a wheelchair,
38:00
I'd be like, that's a real shame.
38:02
I mean, I would, it's going to be crazy.
38:05
It's not. It's never good to cheat.
38:09
That said, if you're like in a wheelchair and you have game,
38:11
it's kind of like, I respect it a bit more, like, all right,
38:14
like, like you can get women and be in a wheelchair.
38:17
Like that's respect. So are you saying?
38:20
I'm not, I'm not validating, but I would be like, it would be
38:22
like like in the movies whenever.
38:25
And these are like more so older movies back when they made like
38:28
20 year olds look like they were like 40 or whatever because
38:30
everybody smoked. And then like the ugliest guy
38:32
you've ever seen somehow in the movie pools like every girl and
38:34
you're like, if this was real life, I would.
38:36
Just by the way, that's also real life.
38:37
You know how everyone talks about Ted Bundy like, Oh my
38:40
gosh, she's like the hottest serial girl and he looks like
38:42
everyone's dad? Yeah.
38:44
And it's, and you literally go back-to-back then and there's
38:46
like 18 year old girls outside the courthouse being like whoo.
38:49
You prefer the guy that killed the United Healthcare CEO?
38:53
But he was more of like a good looking kid.
38:55
He actually, yeah, he is not to get to, you know about it, but
38:57
he was definitely more good looking, you know, Ted Bundy.
39:00
But the same thing like with like The Beatles, all those guys
39:03
look like the heel of somebody's foot.
39:04
Yeah. And everybody's.
39:06
Like, I mean they're. British though, that's true.
39:09
People do, dude. You see, you see pictures of
39:11
people just from the past and by and large rough, which are like,
39:16
she was the prettiest. This girl right here was the
39:19
prettiest girl in all the land. And then she looks.
39:21
She's saying thank you. That's what I was trying to do.
39:24
And I don't know why. I just got louder.
39:27
Back to the wheelchair index. So OK, Kanye West.
39:31
Yeah, Oh yeah, Like it would. It would.
39:34
Kanye passes the wheelchair index.
39:36
See, here's the thing I was talking.
39:37
About about this depending on when he got paralyzed.
39:39
Well, I think it, I think that one fully comes down to who are
39:44
you talking to? Because I think the people that
39:45
hate Kanye, literally anything could happen to him.
39:48
And they're like, I don't care. Like you can point out to them
39:50
all of his mental issues, like genuine mental issues.
39:53
He has the clear effect like his mom had on him and everything.
39:56
I sound like every Kanye West apologist and just all that
39:59
stuff and they're like, don't care.
40:00
He shouldn't have done this and said this, which fair enough.
40:03
But then the people who are literally like that dude can do
40:06
whatever. They're just going to be even
40:08
more. He did whatever and he's in a
40:11
wheelchair. Yeah, he would.
40:12
Maybe he would, you know, maybe Lord willing, he would say on
40:15
his meds. But if he doesn't, how does that
40:17
affect his mind? If the guy who already calls
40:18
himself Jesus doesn't die and he's just in a wheelchair?
40:22
He's like, what's up dude? It would, it would definitely.
40:25
I feel like he passes just it'd be like it's just even more like
40:29
something else that he's dealing with.
40:31
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, I think technically sure, Yeah.
40:33
He. Passes and he made graduation.
40:35
Didn't make graduation. I have a dream of sorry, I can't
40:41
steal that line. That line's trademarked.
40:42
Somebody more famous than me said that.
40:43
Save me a voice. Though I have a dream is that
40:47
good dream dream I have a dream of one day like creating this
40:54
like science fiction book that I've like let marinate my mind
40:57
for the last 10 years. OK.
40:58
And it's gonna get turned into a movie and I'm gonna turn into a
41:02
multi millionaire from it's gonna be great.
41:04
Yeah, but I have to have only Kanye West songs in the as the
41:08
score for the movie. OK so I just listen to Kanye
41:11
West and dream about my future book slash movie that I'm gonna
41:14
make one day. OK, what is the book slash movie
41:16
about? And so this is going to sound
41:19
crazy. It came to me in a dream.
41:22
It's a dream of in the very distant future, there have been
41:27
multiple alien species that have migrated to the world, to Earth
41:31
because there's a giant, I forget the name.
41:34
I think it was like Covenant, not Covenant that's Halo, but
41:38
like a giant species that engulfs other planets and just
41:41
like. Like Galactus?
41:42
Genocide. Exactly.
41:43
Like Galactus kind of. So people are like taking refuge
41:46
in Earth. Yeah.
41:47
And then it's like convenient because like the ones that come
41:49
from like cold planets, they all live in Antarctica and stuff and
41:51
then whatever. And they're like, you know,
41:52
there's like crossbreeding because people are freaks.
41:54
Yeah. So there's a gentleman who.
41:56
How quickly would that happen do you think it's, I think it's all
41:59
it takes for a guy to find out that one of the female ones has
42:01
like kind of a similar thing and he's like.
42:04
It wouldn't take. Yeah, right.
42:05
Wouldn't take long. Wouldn't.
42:06
Jim, what'd you do? And he's like I might.
42:08
Have but that's the point of it being in the distant future.
42:10
There's been time for whatever, like the species mix.
42:13
And so the protagonist, his name's Jack.
42:15
He's like half human, half like it's kind of like I can't decide
42:20
what animal I want it to be. Maybe like Fox or whatever.
42:22
But his mom died, his dad's high up in the government and
42:27
everyone's like wondering when's the Galactica type beings going
42:30
to get here and kill Earth. We've got to be prepared.
42:33
But Jack holds the key to defeating them.
42:35
And it's all something that his mom like maintained and like
42:39
gave him that he didn't know all along.
42:42
It's all in my mind. It's perfect.
42:43
It's going to make a ton of sense.
42:45
Did you have this idea after watching Guardians of the Galaxy
42:48
2? No, OK, No.
42:49
It all came to me in a dream, OK.
42:52
Like I've got a notes. I've literally got notes in my
42:54
phone about it. OK.
42:56
Have you seen Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2?
42:58
Yeah. OK.
42:59
Do you know why I would ask that question of?
43:01
It's not that similar. You got it.
43:03
You got. Where he's half where he's half
43:04
Ego, and then also all the stuff is taking over the planets right
43:08
at the end and then he has to defeat Ego.
43:10
It's not super similar. I'm just saying that's the first
43:12
thing that came to mind. No, it's not that.
43:15
OK, now I got to find the freaking.
43:17
You guys are just going to bond over movies.
43:19
That you No, I'm just saying, dude, no.
43:21
But I, no, I, I, I legitimately like that.
43:24
I've had all sorts of ideas for stuff and I don't write them
43:26
down. So I've lost all the time.
43:27
So that's it. Premise Jack is a young
43:29
mechanic. Earth is an immigration site for
43:31
many alien species that are refugees from dark contagion.
43:35
Contagion was the name for it. It's been decades since the last
43:37
species before this species called the Burglies.
43:41
They're like white praying mantises, like the size of polar
43:45
bears though, so they live in like Antarctica.
43:47
So they were the most recent species to seek refuge from
43:50
contagion on Earth. I want everyone at home to just
43:52
see how exciting. This is sick.
43:54
I'm telling you this dude, I'm so.
43:55
Sick. I'm not.
43:56
I'm not bashing it at all. And I.
43:57
Think I'm going to make this when I retire and this is going
43:59
to be like my swan song and I'll die.
44:01
I'm going to die. Rumors of all the species on
44:05
Earth are wondering if contagion has, like, died off because,
44:08
hey, we haven't heard, like, haven't seen a new species in a
44:10
while, like this contagion, like content.
44:12
Whatever. No signs since the attack on
44:16
Jack's planet. But Jack keeps having dreams
44:18
about contagion coming. And his mom, his dead mom is
44:21
like, involved in the dreams. And so it's like, oh, how does
44:24
this piece together? Dad works for the government.
44:26
Dad's not motivated. He's like, sad that his wife's
44:28
dead. And then there's, of course,
44:30
like, a lot of resistance, like from human born people that are
44:34
all fleeing. I think I want to have a
44:35
California home. I just want to make sure there's
44:36
actually stuff. OK.
44:37
Yeah, so yeah, Vergles, the praying mantis.
44:41
I've got Nords, tiny red haired freckle looking human.
44:44
People going to call the foxes, mandals going to have a cactus
44:49
species that live in like deserts.
44:50
It's all a thing. It's not going to happen for
44:53
another 30 years, but when it does.
44:55
It's genuinely insane that you've never brought that up
44:57
before in any of our. Times.
44:58
How do I bring that up in a conversation?
45:00
I don't know. But hey dude, I've got an idea.
45:02
You have like a whole thing fleshed out.
45:04
We need it. We'll talk about that off
45:04
camera. But you got to make the
45:05
universe. 1st that's true. Kenneth Copeland.
45:10
No right friend by. They didn't hear that, Matt, but
45:12
like, no, yeah. But like now, no, when he was
45:19
younger, though, because now he's so old, it's like, yeah, of
45:21
course he's A and he's like a meme.
45:23
And a lot of people genuinely think he's like, imagine
45:26
demonically possessed that thing where he's getting in a girl's
45:28
face when he's in a wheelchair. So he's just.
45:30
That would actually be more pathetic.
45:32
That'd be. You'd feel bad for.
45:34
Him, well, he and dude hold up because it would actually work
45:36
to his favor because how much more would he have a reason to
45:40
be? Like, what kind of need kind of
45:41
need my own plan. I mean, you know, I can't.
45:44
It's hard to get a wheelchair on a plane.
45:46
Have you ever been? He didn't sound like this.
45:48
I don't. Know I'm doing that.
45:49
If he was in a wheelchair he would sound like that though.
45:50
Yeah, maybe that's how he crushed his chest spiral.
45:54
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe it's like a like the
45:56
Conquest and Mark fight just punched through him and he's
45:59
like, no, I lived it. But he somehow doesn't die.
46:03
Yeah, that's because of God. What?
46:08
Because of God? Because of God?
46:10
Because of God. And we actually, I mean, it's
46:12
funny bringing that up. We've got the Kenneth Copeland
46:14
episode in the hopper. That's going to be because when
46:17
he was doing his tour with Bryce.
46:18
He went to Bryce and then he came and did.
46:20
We got like 20 minutes more. Podcast, I almost said he did
46:23
us, but he did our podcast and we have that episode on Patreon.
46:27
Dude, we have that episode on Patreon.
46:30
So become a Patreon. But yeah.
46:33
So do we think that Kenneth Copeland passes the index?
46:36
Maybe too much money, Maybe no. I think he just, yeah.
46:39
I don't even think, like, money aside, he's just too much of A
46:42
meme. Yeah, and people, I mean, you
46:44
want to talk about freaking George Abbott, Greg Abbott, Greg
46:49
Abbott, guy that the squirrel fell.
46:51
On top of yeah, the. Squirrel Lord knows how many
46:54
memes we made out of Kev. Copeland so I don't think so.
46:57
Yeah. Who else?
46:58
Do people not like controversial figures?
47:02
Mormons. If all the Mormons I convert, if
47:06
Joseph Smith was in a wheelchair, no, go ahead.
47:09
Ellen DeGeneres. Well, here's the thing with
47:12
Ellen. She has to it, doesn't she?
47:14
Like she's didn't really have stuff in the files.
47:17
Yeah. And I think didn't the whole
47:22
very seriously. Gladiator, but he has to make
47:24
fart noises every time he does it.
47:27
So there we go. Gladiator 3.
47:32
I think also like the reasons that she had to like, cancel her
47:35
show were like genuinely like kind of heinous, like her just
47:38
being like really terrible to her stuff.
47:39
Yeah, that's what I heard. Yeah, if she wasn't in the
47:42
files, I think so, yeah. But because she's straight up
47:46
like in the files, I think a. Decent bit.
47:48
OK, what about Oprah then? Because she hasn't had like
47:50
heinous accusations? I guess she's.
47:52
Just kind of, I don't know, I don't even know how many people
47:55
like love Oprah anymore because she used to be like the, I mean,
47:59
definitely daytime person. And now it just feels like, I
48:02
don't know, maybe I'm wrong in this, but I feel like a lot of
48:04
people are just like, like kind of tired of Oprah.
48:06
Yeah. But also she doesn't do a lot.
48:08
I. Mean that was back when, like,
48:10
social media was first starting Yeah.
48:12
And like, you could just be like, a remotely attractive dude
48:15
working at Target. Oh.
48:17
So yeah. Yeah, fair enough.
48:19
Yeah. So Ellen?
48:20
No. Oprah.
48:22
Yeah. So Oprah passes.
48:24
Erica Kirk passes. Yep, that's about it.
48:28
Kanye. Kanye passes.
48:30
But it's an interesting thought experiment.
48:31
I feel like the next time, the next time, dear viewer, you,
48:34
you're hating on somebody. Yeah, picture them in a
48:36
wheelchair. And honestly, let us know who do
48:39
you think we should, you know, talk about the next time that we
48:41
do the wheelchair index. Sure.
48:42
Who do you think would pass or fail the wheelchair?
48:45
This will be an ongoing bit whenever someone naturally 1000%
48:48
yeah, it's wheelchair, I mean looking.
48:49
At the way that we cannot stick to 3 or 4 topics every episode
48:53
might be the wheelchair index, so OK.
48:55
Fair enough. One more thing that I wanted to
48:58
talk to you about is this freaking Christian dating show
49:07
coming out on Hulu. Yeah, tell me about that,
49:09
because you made a whole video about that.
49:10
I definitely watch your video. So 22 single Christians, college
49:16
aged, are flying out to Cabo for what the the studio is called a
49:21
steamy spring break where temptation is tested.
49:27
Or maybe faith is tested and temptations are.
49:30
Real. Is this from like the promo?
49:31
Yeah, I was reading about it. It's I know why Hula made it.
49:37
Yeah, because I'm going to watch it, right?
49:40
It's going to be a train wreck. Well, and also, frankly,
49:42
Christian stuff is like, not to use this kind of terminology,
49:45
but Christian stuff is hot right now.
49:47
Yeah. Like really.
49:48
Like Christian movies are doing better than they have in a long
49:50
time. Christian shows are doing.
49:51
But So, yeah, it kind of makes sense that they're like, hey,
49:53
let's dip into this market. I genuinely, you know how
49:55
everybody does betting stuff on like Cal, she whatever now.
49:58
Yeah. I want to see like the bet for
50:01
like, how many babies will be born nine months after that
50:04
show, after they film that show because, dear, you know,
50:08
there's. Yeah.
50:09
There's going to be like, they're going to have the night
50:11
cameras and they're all going to like sleep in the same room, but
50:15
you each have your own bed. 20 How many?
50:18
Young 20 somethings, 22/22/22 I'm assuming 11:00 and 11:00.
50:22
How many of them do you think within five years will come out
50:24
as gay? Oh.
50:26
I put the over under at 2 1/2 maybe.
50:29
Oh, OK, 2 1/2. You're being much more.
50:32
I was gonna say like 5 or 6 really thinks I mean like a
50:34
percent say over. Yeah, you never know.
50:36
Yeah, I just then there's. Closeted, but that wouldn't be
50:38
coming out so. I mean, take the gay plus
50:41
deconstruction market. Oh my gosh, dude. 15, dude,
50:45
yeah, I was gonna say 10, like at least 50%.
50:47
A 100%. Yeah, it's, it's gonna be a
50:49
train wreck. How many of them are gonna get
50:50
mad like Republican and then, yeah.
50:54
And like at a place like, I'll make this people up.
50:57
That's the, I feel like that's the American dream is like you.
51:00
You get to a point where you're realizing as a creator, I'm not
51:03
that special, right? And I don't want to keep a lot
51:06
of good ideas. I don't, I'm not talented.
51:08
I'm a talentless hack. I've I've had this conversation
51:11
myself and a mirror and a million times.
51:13
And it's like, hey, I'm just going to really embrace one of
51:16
the political parties. I can read headlines from the
51:19
Daily Wire too. I can be upset at Trump and or I
51:22
can love Trump. I can.
51:24
Just glaze him all day long. And then you're going to get
51:27
half of the population being like, yeah, this guy's awesome.
51:30
And that's what we man. Should we just dedicate?
51:33
Which political party do you guys want to see us embrace?
51:36
We'll just do whatever the most. Thumbs up for Republicans,
51:39
thumbs down for Democrats. And that does not.
51:42
Why? Did you?
51:43
What's up? Why did you go thumbs down for
51:44
Democrats? Do you like why is Republican
51:47
thumbs up for you? Democrats were thumbs down.
