  Of course, it's the flag Like I look finishing this off before

• 2:27
  hot and stuffy with the weather soup.
• 2:30
  I mean, we've just done the first heat wave of the to do
• 2:34
  were expecting. And honestly, I, I'm gonna die
• 2:38
  in the next one. It's gonna be awful, Isn't it?
• 2:41
  Absolutely switches worried, I've got this leather chair and
• 2:45
  I've got it. Tilted backwards slightly.
• 2:47
  So like the sweatiest back feeling down to me, I'm going to
• 2:51
  be starting portal revealing back into you at, you know,
• 2:55
  your, your book crack? Like it, like a Viaduct back
• 2:59
  into back, into the black hole, like a drip tray at the back,
• 3:06
  like, for the George Foreman grill?
• 3:08
  Yeah, yeah. Yes.
• 3:09
  I'm pretty sure I've referred to something once as dripping like
• 3:12
  a foot fridge. Ha ha ha.
• 3:16
  I know Matt. No.
• 3:17
  Welcome ladies and gentlemen to see you episode six-year tenure,
• 3:20
  shame, giggity. Goo, we are here.
• 3:23
  We're going to start talking about what we've been doing.
• 3:25
  I'm little bit excitable because I'm talking so I don't go first,
• 3:28
  check it out. Yeah, I went to London and I
• 3:31
  went to an awards ceremony and I hired a talks.
• 3:34
  Hi Dicky, bow and everything. And we were poor Up at the Tower
• 3:40
  Hotel, right in front of the that main Bridge tower bridge.
• 3:44
  Probably. Yeah, look rich as loads and
• 3:54
  this award ceremony, and we knew we had to do his presentation
• 3:56
  before hand. Me and my team, and it was for
• 3:59
  the UK contact center Awards which are call centers.
• 4:02
  These physical contact centers, same deal and was like
• 4:04
  Innovation and change during like the past two years and Cove
• 4:07
  and stuff and like our team were put forward.
• 4:09
  And that's a yes. And if it was great going,
• 4:11
  anyway, as it was with, with other Dicky bow and it's a real
• 4:14
  expensive place like Talent 10 grand, our table cost just be
• 4:17
  there people. So it's a risk that they're
• 4:21
  thinking, but who's the host going to?
• 4:22
  Because last time they did it, but physically, two years ago,
• 4:25
  it was Vernon key. No way.
• 4:28
  That's, that's big ticket. They did a Vernon Kay.
• 4:30
  So, this year, waiting for it waiting for a, he comes, he's
• 4:34
  got the biggest hands in the cookie business.
• 4:36
  It's only a measly Bloody Harry. The catering as well.
• 4:44
  No wonder he's got a hot dog stand aside.
• 4:50
  I mean that's I guess that's what you do.
• 4:52
  If you if you if you book a bull, if you got an agent, hey
• 4:55
  I'll do it. I'll do an awards ceremony, he
• 4:57
  loved it. He loved it because everyone
• 4:59
  would just getting pissed at their head with a bit having
• 5:01
  photographs taken me with the end and stuff like that.
• 5:04
  Well, so, the way it works is, if you want the announcement for
• 5:07
  the Sega Kate bronze or silver goes to an Ingo upstairs and get
• 5:10
  a picture taken with you ward afterwards.
• 5:12
  And then when it comes to the goals, that will be like the
• 5:15
  cameraman. I'll be there in the room, it'll
• 5:16
  Zoom to you and it was like, too big.
• 5:18
  He's either side of the stage with what they're looking at.
• 5:20
  So I was noticing my guys going like right?
• 5:22
  Keep an eye on where the Cameron is beforehand and then as soon
• 5:26
  as it popped up and it said we weren't silver and gold.
• 5:28
  I'm like guys come on woo and Healthcare.
• 5:30
  There's no way that you got we pulled on heartstrings like you
• 5:33
  wouldn't believe and I presentation, it was like, Bang.
• 5:36
  There you are and I remember, jump, jump it up.
• 5:39
  I've never felt so fucking Ally and think I was the first.
• 5:43
  I think I put that's printed a map with the whole day.
• 5:45
  Yeah, it is. When I was four, I was for this
• 5:48
  top stage behind me and gents, but when you see a shot of the
• 6:02
  back of your head and your crown on a screen that size and you
• 6:05
  see a bald patch that was those a good, that was a tick in the
• 6:09
  Box for 43 year old fella, nice nice.
• 6:15
  But yet, first up there shaking the big It's hand.
• 6:17
  There's my ward. We designed it.
• 6:19
  We had a where the crack in. My is absolutely fantastic.
• 6:22
  And then, what did it feel? Like you had a really tiny
• 6:25
  hands. Yeah, - Jerry Beadle hand
• 6:30
  holding a normal time. Sorry, to interrupt.
• 6:37
  It definitely did. His laughing.
• 6:39
  You do is like yeah. And I felt like an infant.
• 6:45
  Yeah. But I also got code from that
• 6:46
  which is It's about my first covid.
• 6:48
  So alien Harriet gave you come Saturday night so that's pretty
• 7:09
  much that would that's the big news.
• 7:10
  Big news in my world. Neil.
• 7:12
  Come on. What have you been up to?
• 7:14
  It's funny. You should say that.
• 7:15
  Actually, I went to award ceremony.
• 7:17
  Work down in that their London as well.
• 7:19
  Since we last recorded and we got beat by the NHS again
• 7:24
  because it will pull at the heartstrings old.
• 7:25
  Look at those pores. Look, what 14 years are you
• 7:29
  objecting to the NHS? Be.
• 7:31
  Yeah. I was some treatment that was
• 7:33
  absolutely. Yes.
• 7:35
  Defend, you know, you think the key workers are in here?
• 7:38
  Yeah. Yeah I went for a key working
• 7:40
  companies. I've been in my Underpants
• 7:41
  tracking, postal it systems. Medication exactly.
• 7:51
  So yeah, no, I it was good. It was our table definitely
• 7:55
  wasn't 10 grand a table. Bloody, I don't think it was
• 7:56
  probably about Grandin are for something like that.
• 7:58
  But the barbell was It was, it was, it was one of those.
• 8:03
  I was sold. It would be a free bar, but
• 8:06
  actually just turns out it's one of those ones where they put
• 8:08
  like a couple of bottles of wine on the table.
• 8:10
  So obviously you go straight for the red, go get, get this, get
• 8:14
  the good stuff in first and then you, then you do the like stuff
• 8:17
  around the sides. Do the bottles of blood and
• 8:18
  stuff like after you've done the red, but, you know, weakly water
• 8:21
  just to keep your body guessing. Yeah, exactly.
• 8:23
  Like placebo effect. That's good.
• 8:26
  I love snails. Got an actual valid tactic for
• 8:29
  this. Adopt this.
• 8:34
  But, you know, we came second in our category and you you and
• 8:39
  hainsley Harriet like I'm I can't compete at all.
• 8:43
  I was there when I'm into these before, they usually have like
• 8:46
  somebody obviously quite seven figures in ours.
• 8:49
  We had a guy came up. Who is comedian?
• 8:52
  I've never heard of or he's not famous.
• 8:54
  So he was doing like a, give me a comedic set and he started
• 8:59
  off, okay. And then Talk to die.
• 9:01
  And then he died for like is did a 15 minutes that he died for 10
• 9:04
  minutes of it. And it's just really painful to
• 9:06
  walk to be in the room, isn't it?
• 9:08
  Comedians just don't just can't get the material.
• 9:11
  Yeah over and then magician came out and did him in like a like a
• 9:18
  10-minute magicians, that kind of thing got people on stage.
• 9:20
  Whether you entertainment, everybody likes a bit of magic
• 9:23
  turns out. He was a compare for the rest of
• 9:24
  the night, so who's like, it was there again, nobody nobody knows
• 9:29
  who he was or anything like that again thing.
• 9:30
  So we mustn't Stephen mulhern. We'll see ya.
• 9:34
  Oh, Dave's made isn't days. May damage it.
• 9:36
  Yes. Of the get with the magnificence
• 9:40
  of. Yeah, it was not but we didn't
• 9:44
  win. But one of the people on our
• 9:46
  table, one of our contractors did go up at the end of the
• 9:49
  evening. When we, when the party was
• 9:52
  started started and actually did steal an award at the side of
• 9:54
  the stage and took and took it home with Amy.
• 9:57
  Well, he took it to the pub afterwards and like he was for a
• 9:59
  completely different. It wasn't, it wasn't, even for
• 10:01
  the ward that we were up for. It was just a random one that
• 10:03
  didn't get really, really? Yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 10:07
  Did he steal from the NHS? The now, this company, but there
• 10:11
  was the other company had come from, like South Wales, or
• 10:13
  something. All the way back down to down to
• 10:16
  London. And he took it, he just pulled
• 10:18
  it out of his like, cocoa in the pub.
• 10:20
  It's like, oh yeah, we didn't mean guys, but we did wear this
• 10:24
  massive glass, kind of like get a plate thing.
• 10:28
  So yeah, you can rat coming around me more night.
• 10:30
  Right? So yeah, so that's that's been
• 10:32
  what I've been up to man, kind of playing second ear tip bloody
• 10:35
  NHS. As usual, can I ask, did you
• 10:39
  take that award back? So at least somebody could get
• 10:42
  nothing to do with me. He was in 2022.
• 10:52
  Like an almost 44 year old man. Yes.
• 10:54
  Speak to 44 year old man. There was always one man who's a
• 10:57
  little bit older. His name is David side, the way
• 10:58
  your feet below below. Chasey Ray you must be ready to
• 11:03
  pass the Baton like in a real life behind me.
• 11:07
  Why all the counts needles hitting 44?
• 11:09
  A good sort of like six months before me.
• 11:11
  Oh asking indeed, leave it up to 10 days.
• 11:19
  Not loads part from, you know, I'm getting neighbors, sectioned
• 11:22
  that kind of thing. It's kind of a crazy neighbor.
• 11:30
  Yeah. It's I'm sure will be a little
• 11:33
  bit more about that in a sec but yes, I'm mocchi.
• 11:36
  It just still working from home, still doing the same reptile.
• 11:41
  See it really? But happy.
• 11:42
  Black country day. Everyone.
• 11:43
  I'm having a drink for all of you.
• 11:46
  What's the is really like a Hampton is like a local
• 11:50
  delicacy. Like I can remember when I, when
• 11:53
  I, when I was down in Stoke, it's kind of like, I was in
• 11:56
  Stoke. Again, it's like okay, Kyle
• 11:58
  song, karaoke bar, no comment, but Cakes.
• 12:03
  Okay. So that's the one that's
• 12:05
  staffordshire. They are made in some of the
• 12:11
  more traditional publishing still get what they call Gray
• 12:13
  pays and bacon and it's like what sort of stuff I would fuck
• 12:17
  is that. It's basically like Thick meat
• 12:21
  lentil least you have it with a big crusty bit of bread.
• 12:25
  It's the atomic weight of plutonium.
• 12:28
  If you eat it, you have you basically dragging your belly
• 12:31
  round on a wheel like those people that had 2000 ad.
• 12:36
  She's right yet. Gray, pays and biking.
• 12:40
  Yeah, it's good for your choice. I'm doing up here, Joe.
• 12:43
  How, what you been up to? And we're all okay well I still
• 12:51
  haven't been to any awards ceremonies and the width show
• 12:56
  think about this wouldn't I end I ended up down in abandoned
• 13:01
  mine shaft and I still weekend I went out for a few but here's my
• 13:04
  chance. It's less really good job.
• 13:11
  It was very much. This crap is in North Wales when
• 13:13
  you go out for a few beers so when I was 18 yeah I know.
• 13:19
  There's a craft beer Pub in them.
• 13:21
  It's nearby Town, each other crap of towns called mold, which
• 13:23
  doesn't fill you with great expectations for the food
• 13:27
  anyway, sexy. But we haven't going to be.
• 13:30
  So I remember thinking, you know what, I don't know where this
• 13:32
  evening is going. Like, I don't know what's going
• 13:34
  to happen. Anyway, what happened was?
• 13:36
  We went to someone's house who had never met before who's
• 13:41
  apparently called Rocket and it was introduced as Rocket lose.
• 13:47
  Various children's of, I don't know.
• 13:50
  It's a bit Lord of the Flies of running around this camel
• 13:56
  Association. Okay.
• 14:15
  Then right around this campfire and then like I'm dressed for
• 14:19
  the pub in a town as Amanda Mineshafter on the back of the
• 14:23
  Garden. Or another look is this it's in
• 14:26
  this like we're not in a place called quest are not quite.
• 14:28
  So when our field, it's cool this guy's just got a house in
• 14:33
  the middle of nowhere. And yeah, it says you're looking
• 14:36
  into this as I don't think I'm really gesture it.
• 14:38
  Rocket, come on. Imagine if you didn't go in,
• 14:42
  it's just all right. Then I'll get in trouble.
• 14:44
  Strain and he just bought, like, the whole throw C /. - gosh, it
• 14:52
  was a coffee. He couldn't say no to.
• 14:56
  It was like the shaft that he'd look like the one that could
• 14:58
  have got away. Four of us got down there in the
• 15:01
  end for a winner. If it's a proper, thank, there's
• 15:05
  a little platform, first off the external view of it.
• 15:08
  It's like a little bit of a, I don't know, a raise, not a
• 15:12
  bunker, because it's only our for me at all a bit.
• 15:14
  It's above the ground but it's all been blocked off.
• 15:17
  I think because legally they're not allowed to leave it exposed
• 15:19
  - yeah from the labor finish your found a way in so it was
• 15:23
  fine so for me, just lift it up a bit of metal.
• 15:27
  So claimed in hunched over, it's going to the mine shaft, it's
• 15:32
  probably very, very dangerous who chugging a beer bottle down
• 15:35
  it and it was like, literally 88 seconds before you hear Des
• 15:38
  Moines. I mean, Joe are you in your
• 15:41
  forties yet? No, just about just about This
• 15:45
  is routine. Yeah, this is chicken pox.
• 15:47
  Reminder of The Goonies, the curry was a few points where
• 15:53
  there to put like, I felt a tug at the back.
• 15:55
  It wasn't like a ghost, it was someone realizing.
• 15:57
  I was like way over the end of the platform and about to fall
• 16:00
  to my grisly death. Yeah, it was.
• 16:03
  It was good though because I ruin my shoes just in my head.
• 16:07
  It's like so you've gotta like a guarantee of like a flipbook
• 16:09
  cartoon that used to make me you a kid, you know?
• 16:11
  Like I know like as pad of paper, yeah, I can just see.
• 16:14
  Cartoons of like Joe and his friends three friends, going to
• 16:18
  bomb a garden, jumping into a world that turns into a magical
• 16:22
  kind of mine shaft and you know, it's just like I just need some
• 16:27
  visual representation to this day.
• 16:28
  I can't quite get a telephone a picture but I'm in my chin you
• 16:31
  only be disappointed by the picture because like I do it's a
• 16:34
  mine shaft. So it's just a whole dark just
• 16:39
  in my child in Helen put it on. I don't team started pretty good
• 16:42
  picture of wily coyote jumping off cliffs.
• 16:44
  You don't leave the house folks home.
• 16:47
  Yeah, he shed comes from Acme. Yeah.
• 16:52
  I don't know how good the picture will be audio, but yeah,
• 16:56
  it's just a platform and it's like a big.
• 16:59
  What was a big drop into the ground?
• 17:01
  That does not look like something.
• 17:02
  You want to be exploring in real life, let alone a video game
• 17:07
  that looks like Resident Evil. I had the point where I turn off
• 17:10
  and go no too scary. Did you know anyone ever played
• 17:13
  Ghostbusters on like the Amstrad or the Spectrum.
• 17:15
  I'm sure it was the same game. Yeah.
• 17:17
  And at the very start of ghostbusters 2, you're being
• 17:19
  sort of lowered down into the in its it was because it's the only
• 17:23
  business and my God. Yeah, no.
• 17:31
  So it took one, look at that and gun know, I value my life and
• 17:36
  then the other thing is I've got a bunny's outdoor pizza ovens
• 17:39
  been making our pizza married if he's talking about these.
• 17:42
  Everybody's raving about these are pretty but it is ones on the
• 17:45
  small little legs. It sounds, yes.
• 17:47
  I was able. Yeah, so my partner, Celiac it.
• 17:50
  So we have to do everything is gluten-free and we've had these
• 17:53
  crap going free pizzas, almost all the time.
• 17:56
  It's become a bit of an obsession.
• 17:57
  So I've like properly over years.
• 17:59
  Refined the ones that we've got like And even need to sourdough
• 18:02
  in the front that's like four pizzas and we went to Florence
• 18:06
  in Italy like as opposed to Florence, you know not in Italy.
• 18:10
  We went to Florence in Italy and got the place of this is going
• 18:15
  well into the pizza podcast. But is it is a place that does
• 18:19
  three pizzas to have? You have to give me 24 hour
• 18:20
  notice and have had a pizza then, I was like, this is
• 18:22
  amazing, I want to do that anyway.
• 18:24
  I think I'd almost cracked it as the only thing that's missing is
• 18:27
  having it would fired. So we got got a thing, got a
• 18:31
  uni, Pizza Oven, others others that I think, as good as and
• 18:35
  there's ones that about four times as much slightly better as
• 18:38
  well, we went for one of these and yes, it's really good.
• 18:42
  Isn't it? Is that company that you've got
• 18:44
  a bit like a subscription form? Don't know.
• 18:45
  They send you the details and stuff like that.
• 18:47
  So many days, or what have you, you know, what, I thought it was
• 18:50
  going to be, you're going to suggest you have a subscription
• 18:52
  to build the other. That is going to be the a
• 18:54
  creeper magazine. 99 in small print says, will take over 1,000
• 19:06
  magazines to watch me Joe absolutely starving 10-week
• 19:10
  started from one Coast e. Price is chimney.
• 19:15
  Soda me matches now Yeah a lot of people talking about that
• 19:21
  lot. My friends talking about I've
• 19:22
  got them and they raving about them.
• 19:24
  Yeah there's an offer on our show them every so often but
• 19:26
  there's good offer on them. Boy, when the offer was on and
• 19:30
  have not been disappointed, been really good.
• 19:32
  Even crankier once you've got it hot pizzas, every sort of five
• 19:36
  minutes should and that's, you've gotta let the stone heat
• 19:39
  back up again, the pizzas in the oven for like a minute and a
• 19:41
  half and then you bottles. About the status of the road.
• 19:49
  That's not pizza, that's not pizza, and the way before.
• 19:53
  Move on for me, run more with you punch into one of the
• 19:55
  questions. In fact, Dave one that you pick
• 19:57
  out one of the lovely questions this week, right?
• 20:00
  Then take this one. This one is from the lovely Ross
• 20:04
  grieve. He says, five years from now,
• 20:07
  and the year of Shame 10 still has people talking Hollywood
• 20:11
  comes knocking, who is playing each of you?
• 20:13
  This as in this obvious, Oscar winner.
• 20:17
  Well mine's easy enough in its Frank Skinner don't know.
• 20:24
  I'm often told David Mitchell would make a good replacement.
• 20:28
  Yes, that would, that was work. See, I used years ago, I used to
• 20:36
  get quite often. I don't get as often than people
• 20:38
  shouting at me in the street, but it's like, yeah, I want to
• 20:43
  come to play me. It's such a fresh role for them
• 20:45
  to play straight out of the West End.
• 20:49
  Thanks, Joe. Do you think about me?
• 20:53
  I couldn't resist. The setup, was the Allen from
• 20:58
  The Hangover. The guy Zach, some sort of Named
• 21:03
  Kelly confesses or something like that and you get quotes
• 21:06
  from The Hangover showered. I mean streak that Jesus was
• 21:08
  when I got caught shouted quite a few times.
• 21:11
  Yeah yeah. Yeah.
• 21:13
  I mean it's better than slim Hitler.
• 21:16
  Yeah. I know of you is it from an
• 21:22
  aesthetic point of view which would you rather look for ya?
• 21:36
  Who do you want? You want to look like a thin
• 21:39
  thin? Thin Hitler.
• 21:41
  Could say I identify as Bella / Hamburg with
• 22:00
  the guy called Nick. Old.
• 22:03
  The doctor always reminds me of nail for some reason, right, I'm
• 22:08
  gonna do big googly, was it, this is show called The
• 22:12
  Reluctant landlord with the, you know, Ramesh ranganathan.
• 22:16
  And he's in that with him and just the whole time, I was
• 22:19
  watching that, I was just thinking that's, that's Neil,
• 22:23
  right? Okay.
• 22:24
  If I have a second choice, Matthew McConaughy has played
• 22:27
  Joe Cooper into films. I think characters called
• 22:31
  joking. One of them's Killer Joe and are
• 22:34
  the trainers were epic. I've never I've checked it on
• 22:38
  safe as it, Dave Southall in any film.
• 22:40
  Highly suggest not. I know there's one creepy
• 22:43
  surgeon. The tabloids are what you are
• 22:48
  and a Halloween costume was. But if it how about yourself so
• 22:53
  much about you. So I reckon if it's going to be
• 22:59
  movies made they'll go in chronological order.
• 23:01
  So, the start off with the first Last year.
• 23:03
  So by the time to get to us, still be the whole year.
• 23:05
  A shame extended Universe, like the 10th year will be the end
• 23:08
  game over here. Shame Cinema universe.
• 23:11
  So peaceful, it could be anybody like fucking Jace could play me
• 23:16
  for a little bit back home and I'll spend a bit of time as
• 23:19
  cattle. Enjoy that.
• 23:21
  What you are you trying to say that you're gonna do some sort
• 23:23
  of Quantum Leap into past years of Shame?
• 23:35
  He didn't as well, he's recorded a podcast with, that's the one
• 23:38
  title cards that broke my heart. As a as a small boy because he
• 23:44
  didn't, did he get not Ziggy. What was he was?
• 23:48
  Is this is town. I'll you got Al back with these
• 23:51
  is wife after wall after that after more than thank you can
• 23:54
  recall. That is like you watched it
• 23:56
  yesterday, Joe, well done. But yeah, I remember that being
• 24:00
  quite heartbreaking as a kid. Do, you know the real Michael?
• 24:04
  Yeah. There's a, there's a new Quantum
• 24:06
  Leap on the way. I hope it's good.
• 24:10
  It won't be. But anyway, I think so.
• 24:15
  Yeah. There you go, Ross.
• 24:16
  That's our Killer movie Ensemble that Jesus to play Neal Jones.
• 24:22
  Yeah. And what I've done is create
• 24:26
  well, we've been doing that alternate reality versions of
• 24:29
  Dave Southall. Jack Jarrett.
• 24:32
  Neil. I'm about to do my theme or the
• 24:36
  the links. Are you showing us?
• 24:38
  It's just like some A whole thing by.
• 24:40
  They got something that I buried many, many years ago.
• 24:44
  Jeremy and his mother apparently an Italian casting style
• 24:50
  instructor. Oh, okay, yeah, my yeah.
• 24:59
  Mines them unique. Oh yeah.
• 25:06
  Flip that's not recall for the radio Neil's it.
• 25:14
  Yep. Yep.
• 25:16
  And now you guys, I'm a Ford dealer in Tulsa.
• 25:19
  Think this is, I've dragged this off track like that, but you are
• 25:22
  single. Yes.
• 25:25
  Okay, so we do the question that mr.
• 25:28
  Moore should we jump straight out of a plane?
• 25:31
  Let's do that. But I want you kick is a hold
• 25:33
  Okay, before we start 11, is there anything this month or
• 25:39
  well, since the last recording that you feel like you've missed
• 25:43
  out on? Because we haven't really talked
• 25:46
  about these before. I've definitely got one and
• 25:50
  that's the Monster Hunter rise, DLC, some break, which is
• 25:54
  crippling me. So I basically had to mute half
• 25:58
  of my Facebook and Twitter. So is this a deal like a DLC
• 26:04
  pack that I can expect expansion?
• 26:05
  Yeah, it's a DLC expansion but they are enormous always the the
• 26:09
  Monster Hunter deal so so it's basically like another game.
• 26:13
  So yeah, that's that. The one thing that I've really
• 26:17
  wanted to play and why have you missed it so much?
• 26:20
  Is it because of the grind of it all, or is it because you feel,
• 26:22
  you missing out on those monsters bit Past come in.
• 26:26
  Like the, like, the Camaro Rockies people, there are like
• 26:28
  to play with. Yeah.
• 26:30
  And I don't know, I just love those games, for just the proper
• 26:35
  one to sink your teeth in. I mean, I did like about, I
• 26:38
  think it was about 780 hours on the PS4 bereshit.
• 26:43
  So, you know, he's probably just Just as well, I'm not playing it
• 26:46
  this year. Yeah, um, I don't know if
• 26:51
  there's anything that I've missed this month.
• 26:53
  I am missing. Not buying games, but I've not
• 26:57
  missing a title in particular. Today I have found myself kind
• 27:02
  of seems Steam Sale a couple weeks ago we could do ago.
• 27:08
  And I usually brows that and use ago that not played out in a
• 27:11
  while or I don't have that on my PC or what have you and I kind
• 27:15
  of was doing that and Felt the pinch of not being able to buy
• 27:19
  what want to buy because it's buying games, but there's not
• 27:22
  been any particular title as yet that I've gotten crikey.
• 27:27
  I, we should not that should have been my Joker.
• 27:31
  Tom looking that respect. What about you?
• 27:32
  Joe, you missing a couple of into, I don't know if they're
• 27:35
  this, but I know that Mario Strikers came out in June and
• 27:38
  that's one that I would have, picked up and got a lot of play
• 27:40
  out of a, but I'm not devastated.
• 27:42
  I haven't got it same time, like it because if I was desperate, I
• 27:46
  could just dig out the old one and which I think Dave has
• 27:49
  probably done. Yeah, I'll get on that one but
• 27:53
  that's what has been a few. Actually, there's a new Wii
• 27:56
  Sports 1 accounting, but but yeah, almost just started very
• 28:00
  mad. I've stopped following it I've
• 28:03
  because I think I've finished, this is a ridiculous.
• 28:05
  I think I finished one game, the six months just because
• 28:10
  everything's been mad and busy. And without I get really pulled
• 28:15
  in and I'm like, I said before, one game at a time.
• 28:17
  So, without the being that I'm going to play this new one and
• 28:20
  it's going to pull and then it sort of gets you over after a
• 28:22
  month or so you. So invested that you're not
• 28:24
  going to give it up, I don't know.
• 28:26
  But very costly but every like the castle but The one that was
• 28:33
  like, the one that I've written still missing still feeling the
• 28:35
  effects of his. The one that you've all got us a
• 28:37
  joker. Like, that's the one that I
• 28:39
  think that would be worth getting, but I've got so so much
• 28:43
  of a back rub. I think you should go.
• 28:45
  Do it in all honesty from the limited amount.
• 28:47
  I know about you, and how you play video games, I think that
• 28:50
  would be a dangerous game for you to, oh, yeah.
• 28:52
  Because you would lose yourself in it, massively Alderman.
• 28:58
  You'd just be, you would ya? From what you were talking about
• 29:02
  like, Hades and stuff like that, and the multiple playthroughs,
• 29:05
  and kind of, you know, kind of Hades is a bit of an outlier
• 29:08
  because normally, I'll play a game to the end, and once I
• 29:12
  finished it, it's rare that I go back.
• 29:14
  Like most games will just be finished.
• 29:16
  That's it. Do you not add a couple of
• 29:18
  exchange a bus or anything? You just do story?
• 29:21
  Don't, that's my story. The end.
• 29:23
  If I love it I'll go back to if I love it.
• 29:25
  Like, I'm the last of us I've got like I did that again on a
• 29:29
  harder difficulty and went to Went through the platform of,
• 29:32
  you know, and then blood-borne I went for the platform but it is
• 29:35
  a bit skate Platinum, but little bit of save scumming at the end,
• 29:38
  I didn't actually play it three, four times, I did that, and then
• 29:42
  went back and did that last fight.
• 29:44
  A couple of times just to sort that out.
• 29:46
  But I did, I did that with Eldon ring.
• 29:47
  I'd save scum that the last few endings, because it's, I'm not
• 29:51
  playing the whole game again, for, literally 30 seconds of
• 29:53
  difference. But then at the same time, Neil,
• 29:57
  he's like, I would I try and extract all the fun before I
• 29:59
  finish it. So that the Wrath of the Wild.
• 30:01
  I was going around doing the day.
• 30:03
  I see, because they knew that once I beat the final boss, you
• 30:06
  want to put a stop paying it. I won't bother paying it now.
• 30:08
  Yeah, because that was like, I don't want to leave this world
• 30:10
  anymore and I almost like make a special day of finishing them
• 30:14
  off because I knew I'd beat him. So it's just a case of right sit
• 30:17
  down, like the candles, get all their dick.
• 30:20
  No, soft music in the air. Yeah, Barry White.
• 30:25
  Yeah, red buttons have a cell phone.
• 30:31
  If you missed anything. And now, I've never do miss
• 30:35
  much. I was, I was tempted to try the
• 30:38
  because I still don't quite know where I am with my Xbox
• 30:41
  subscription. I figure that like, I think it
• 30:42
  was definitely hard balls. Like you did.
• 30:44
  But that's thought something popped up.
• 30:46
  It was the The Gardens Galaxy one because it turns out that's
• 30:50
  actually a decent game and I thought, yeah, single player
• 30:52
  game with bit story in a bit of fun.
• 30:54
  That's, that's right with my straw.
• 30:55
  Uh, and I don't the rest because I guess I'm not missing out on
• 31:00
  it because it's there when I'm ready for it.
• 31:03
  And I'm not Not not playing it because I'm doing the you shame
• 31:05
  because my you shame is different but like it's from
• 31:09
  somebody who's paying attention to their finances.
• 31:11
  It's always good. Not to buy something day one,
• 31:13
  because you're not paying full price of away.
• 31:15
  Couple of weeks, waiting for it to drop.
• 31:17
  You can play the same game because it's on a subscription.
• 31:21
  That's like that. Do they fall off or they always
• 31:23
  there? I don't know games for.
• 31:24
  Yeah, they do fall off these first?
• 31:26
  Yeah, let's just say I'd like to just make a quick comment about
• 31:29
  that. I've been looking at game past
• 31:31
  lately because I said that, I wouldn't play anymore.
• 31:33
  A thing that came out after January the First on it and it's
• 31:38
  just breaks my heart to look at it now because there's so much
• 31:42
  added to it. I don't think when you've got it
• 31:44
  and you can dip in and you use it you realized quite how much
• 31:47
  stuff is added to it all the time.
• 31:50
  Yeah. So I've was more or less like
• 31:53
  looking at it because I know, as I said this before, I'll just
• 31:57
  get pissed and I'll click that play Cloud button.
• 31:59
  And then that's it. That's, that's more rules broke.
• 32:03
  Just stays, like, I think it's like this games that pop up upon
• 32:09
  it. That I see people playing video
• 32:12
  games and like, oh, you know, you put its own says, playing
• 32:15
  such and such. And then I'll see some games
• 32:17
  passing of light. Ah, I could be playing that.
• 32:20
  Yeah, as well. Like this one that came out
• 32:23
  today. It's, it's an escape room.
• 32:27
  Bigger, two-player escape room, and I just thought how much of a
• 32:31
  laughs would that be for us all to play?
• 32:33
  Say, you know, joking, Joe could get a game press subscription
• 32:36
  for a day and and play in the cloud and play along with us,
• 32:40
  you know, it push quite casual. But then we'd all be breaking
• 32:44
  the rules. So it's editor, perfect one to
• 32:46
  do as well. I think that Sniper Elite 5
• 32:49
  that's just come out as well, which was kind of I think that's
• 32:52
  a recent release and that's on there as well that most kind of
• 32:54
  like a play that. Oh I didn't actually I did break
• 32:58
  my overalls. I did download that played that
• 32:59
  for a little bit. When yep, I can sue shoot,
• 33:01
  dudes, and all your dirty. Delete delete it.
• 33:06
  But that raises a good point. We haven't had before was
• 33:08
  playing against and we can make that happen this month.
• 33:11
  I say we can find again the four of us.
• 33:13
  He played it before the next podcast that lesser well I know
• 33:17
  I've said before where we can do you know Steam remote play
• 33:22
  together, you know that way. You just basically everyone just
• 33:25
  has a controller attached and has Steam on the computer and
• 33:30
  everyone I just stream it to you and you can play that.
• 33:33
  I have massively upgraded. PC now so I've now got massive
• 33:39
  computer from Superman 3. It's not that woman many with
• 33:45
  the technology takes over, that's used to scare the shitty
• 33:48
  territory. Nicee.
• 33:50
  Yes. Mate.
• 33:51
  That's up there with the up there with the Return to Oz when
• 33:53
  the take the head off. Yeah, I believed that.
• 33:57
  That anyway. We're not going to dig deep and
• 34:00
  behold. Sorry.
• 34:00
  Go, go on De bank, will come back to that at the end of just
• 34:03
  kind of like a little bit. Yeah, well done.
• 34:06
  What? Scares me.
• 34:07
  A little child. Yeah.
• 34:08
  And I've got one it's quite embarrassing.
• 34:13
  So yeah. Well like I said, I've been
• 34:14
  actively upgraded PC now. So quite delectable of playing
• 34:19
  more or less. Anything will make that happen
• 34:24
  this month. And it even I've totaled this
• 34:27
  idea before, but I think we could just quite easily watch
• 34:30
  like one of those interactive FMV games because I've got tons
• 34:33
  of them and we'll just have a drink and Shout The screen and
• 34:37
  we all just pick it. We end up watching a film for an
• 34:39
  hour and a half done. I'd love to do that.
• 34:43
  We would have that would really, really enjoy that.
• 34:45
  Let's make that happen. This also for guys is obviously
• 34:48
  multi-platform now as well. So with the Jo nice, which Yak
• 34:52
  cetera, et cetera, we can easily make that's also free.
• 34:56
  Yep. Definitely.
• 34:58
  Yeah. Well, I said so, We're always
• 35:04
  wear on what have you been playing John to introduce it?
• 35:09
  So thank you very much day. Picking up the slack while I
• 35:12
  wasn't paying attention, don't worry.
• 35:13
  So I noticed my just sounded the start that he done the agenda,
• 35:17
  does he bother back in the room and playing General format?
• 35:30
  Okay? So you put some things in there,
• 35:32
  Dave? So completed dabbled with retro
• 35:34
  specials. That sounds like you
• 35:36
  speculations. I don't know what I just put
• 35:38
  that anyway. Oh no.
• 35:43
  I will read this script in one burgundy style.
• 35:45
  As I bet you wear it. Sex Panther.
• 35:55
  Oh God. Yeah, socialites.
• 35:57
  I tell you what I've been playing since last gone.
• 36:00
  Yeah. Okay well I started I forgot
• 36:02
  exactly where what I mentioned in the last recording.
• 36:06
  So did go back this morning and started listening to the last
• 36:08
  episode. And had to turn it off after 10
• 36:10
  minutes. After hearing my voice was
• 36:12
  slipping into a coma. So I might be able to repeat
• 36:15
  myself things, I mentioned previously, but I think I
• 36:19
  mentioned last time that I've been playing cyberpunk 2077 on
• 36:24
  the PC. I've completed it since last
• 36:26
  recording and I really like it. I'm a fan of that game.
• 36:31
  You played it the first time around.
• 36:33
  They complete the first time at know.
• 36:35
  I'd like I'd started with I think we did discuss in that
• 36:38
  they can invest episode, but I started a character when it
• 36:41
  first came out and then came across all the kind of graphical
• 36:45
  problems and just parked. It went to one side, starting a
• 36:48
  new character whilst we've been in years.
• 36:50
  Shame and took that to the very end.
• 36:53
  Played it a lot. So I've made some notes, but I'm
• 36:55
  not wearing my glasses. So wait one second I was played
• 36:59
  at 139 hours. In this character.
• 37:02
  So I did a lot in there and it was tough to do and yes, there
• 37:08
  is stuff to do. Yeah.
• 37:09
  Definitely. And there's meant to be an
• 37:11
  expansion coming out in about a year or whatever and I'm
• 37:15
  actually looking forward to it, which means you can open make a
• 37:17
  bit more open ended at the end of each rib to go back into like
• 37:20
  City and stuff. But I really enjoy that game.
• 37:23
  I think that it's got bad. Press, it doesn't deserve it
• 37:27
  anymore. Definitely, doesn't look for
• 37:29
  dude, humor been playing? Yeah.
• 37:32
  I would definitely recommend it. I think the atmosphere that
• 37:34
  creates inside the game is underrated definitely.
• 37:38
  I might get further than important this time in it.
• 37:42
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 37:45
  The other game I've been playing with my Joker.
• 37:48
  I had to stop playing Eldon ring to be honest with you.
• 37:50
  I was playing too much. It was creeping into everything.
• 37:53
  I was thinking about it during work.
• 37:55
  I was dreaming about it. I was trying to play it whilst I
• 37:59
  was at work. Sorry boss.
• 38:03
  And it became a bit too much, so I put it a purposely get gave
• 38:07
  myself two weeks off from it and just add a bit of a holiday
• 38:12
  because it was becoming ridiculous.
• 38:15
  So, current state is something that is, I'm level 67.
• 38:20
  I'm 65 hours in and I'm going to put out this wrong and Dave will
• 38:26
  correct me. I'm at, is it Atlas Plateau at
• 38:30
  Lotus? I'm not sure the shoulder.
• 38:33
  Remember I'm the Elder won't hear my memories going rapidly
• 38:36
  of this. You played that game a lot
• 38:39
  anyway so I'm I feel like I'm not even halfway through when it
• 38:43
  comes to like the exploration of the math.
• 38:45
  Say you probably about halfway if you've got until you've gone
• 38:48
  up the big lift into Yes. I've well the one of the last
• 38:53
  encounters I had well all the ink, most of the encounters are
• 38:56
  just fucking bullshit, but one of them was on top of the
• 39:00
  climbing of extremely large ladder onto a Mountainside.
• 39:05
  Yeah. And you come basic into like a
• 39:07
  nest of Fallen star something Beast.
• 39:11
  Yeah, yeah yeah. So you're right by a place that
• 39:15
  is very hot. Yes.
• 39:18
  Okay. Um nagato not going to use too
• 39:21
  many swear words here but that is AC UNT that that was the last
• 39:25
  and okay hold in the game. I actually went back to that
• 39:28
  after and finished it I've because it just run off these
• 39:30
  striving to make. Yeah, I've left it I can't even
• 39:34
  make a mark on it. So I left that still beautiful
• 39:36
  game still with the like it just need to be careful for it not to
• 39:39
  become an obsession and to when I was taking a break from it, I
• 39:42
  want to cleanse my palate. I have jumped into the Mass
• 39:46
  Effect Trilogy Again, and I'm playing it from the beginning
• 39:50
  and I played Mass Effect 1 when it first came out back in the
• 39:56
  360 days when I was quite a naive video game player probably
• 40:03
  didn't pay as much attention as I should have done skipped.
• 40:06
  Like you know, text and things like that and everything just
• 40:11
  I'm going to stop you and I know it must be ridiculous.
• 40:14
  No spoilers. Okay, so I'm in the same boat.
• 40:18
  I'll talk. Well I'll probably talk by my
• 40:19
  shoulder right now, but I'm way behind you but I've just
• 40:24
  started. It's like I've just I've just
• 40:26
  finished the Mass Effect 1 and I've just about about two hours
• 40:32
  into the second one, I don't know how but my time length is
• 40:36
  of how long it took me to do Mass Effect 1 in this
• 40:38
  playthrough but it feels compared to my first playthrough
• 40:41
  10 years back or whatever it was, I feel like I've done three
• 40:44
  times as much this time. Round.
• 40:46
  Do you feel like it's aged? Well the game and I didn't feel
• 40:52
  like it was especially because it's the Legacy Edition.
• 40:56
  The some of the graphical tweaks and the gameplay tweaks, they've
• 40:59
  done, I know they've kind of made those improvements.
• 41:04
  Kind of the way that your the mechanics of combat of living
• 41:08
  proof since the original Place through.
• 41:11
  So yeah. I mean I didn't say I don't I
• 41:16
  don't feel I enjoyed every single bit of it and then when
• 41:19
  I've gone into start playing to and the combat is different
• 41:23
  dude. Like you actually we can reload
• 41:24
  your weapons. For example, that feels weird.
• 41:27
  It feels like well. Actually.
• 41:29
  I've quite liked how it was. You must have like one.
• 41:32
  So yeah, but I've played like, I say I've played through, I
• 41:36
  really enjoyed it. Got a lot more into the law, and
• 41:39
  the backstory of stuff, the kind of the Codex of kind of It's
• 41:46
  tough. I've been reading and listening
• 41:48
  to, it's amazing. I think I've become an addict
• 41:51
  again. Always loved him.
• 41:53
  I loved him and I played him originally.
• 41:54
  But again, like I say the younger Neal was probably just a
• 41:57
  bit more of a naive player that didn't really kind of enrich
• 42:02
  myself and much in the video games.
• 42:03
  Have just played them and this time around, there was just a
• 42:06
  lot. There's a lot to it Joe and I
• 42:09
  highly recommend just taking your time with it and enjoying
• 42:13
  every single aspect of it, you know, some It's a little bit,
• 42:16
  you know, the kind of the planet Landing into my co and the
• 42:20
  missions on there that they've got, you know, each building is
• 42:23
  basically the same shape that, you know, there's a format that
• 42:27
  they followed when there was really a space exploration in
• 42:30
  the in that year. Do you mean it was, you know, to
• 42:32
  a two-level building with a door at what end?
• 42:36
  But you can forgive all that because it's a really good
• 42:40
  story. And you can feel that they are
• 42:43
  the characters are really Open starting to bloom and then they
• 42:46
  bloom in the second one is where you know everybody kind of
• 42:49
  raised about the second one. So I've just started the second
• 42:51
  one, I feel like I've been talking forever so I'm going to
• 42:53
  shut the fuck up. But yeah, I loved it.
• 42:55
  I got quite a few of the treatments felt like I wanted to
• 42:58
  get some more. That doesn't mean I'm not gonna
• 43:00
  go back and try and get some of the ones I missed out on, but
• 43:03
  that's me. That's what I've been playing.
• 43:05
  Well, question for me on that. Do do, do they do a new
• 43:08
  presentation with the third one? And like a choice of endings
• 43:11
  isn't like a director's cut which is the original ending you
• 43:14
  can play through. So you with, with the legendary
• 43:17
  edition, you can take your when you initial character that you
• 43:20
  create, you can take it through the entire, you can load your
• 43:23
  load your character into the next one.
• 43:24
  So, I've loaded my my Mass Effect, one character into two,
• 43:28
  and it gives you some benefits of kind of starting with some of
• 43:30
  the same. You start with the same spec
• 43:32
  kind of thing to a similar example and you level up a
• 43:35
  little bit first off, but in all the DLCs there, so every single
• 43:40
  but there's only one DLC that's missing from the original one.
• 43:43
  I think it is or the second one that was When they tried to be
• 43:46
  Master it, but yet the ending Mass, the Mass Effect 3, the one
• 43:51
  that was quite controversial. I'll tell you when I get to it,
• 43:54
  but yeah, apparently they've done some tweaks around that and
• 43:57
  what that is, but I'll learn without spoilers once.
• 44:01
  Joe's gone through it as well. We'll probably have a discussion
• 44:03
  probably run back to summer time around it, but I'm sure
• 44:06
  everybody's sick of hearing my voice.
• 44:08
  So I will hand to somebody else. Dave, what have you been playing
• 44:13
  brace yourself? Oh, there we go.
• 44:21
  I thought am I going to stick with this?
• 44:24
  Because it's got a feeling of a slightly like it's lightly dust
• 44:26
  around the edges and it's like me.
• 44:28
  The characters are tuna wasp while they're talking about, oh
• 44:31
  yeah, there's some some smoky eye movements and stuff like
• 44:34
  that, but they're not quite you think this person's got too lazy
• 44:37
  arms, but actually, the way you just spoke about it means I'm
• 44:40
  like it's got me more excited to keep on going.
• 44:43
  And I'm only about 2 hours in. I think.
• 44:45
  But no it's it sounds like you absolutely loved it and like,
• 44:48
  yeah, I went back to it. Cannot go.
• 44:50
  Yeah, went back to it and it was it's a very good game.
• 44:54
  I would put it on a bit more of a challenging level than normal
• 44:57
  in terms of food for the comeback sake just to kind of
• 45:00
  make those combat sessions last a little bit longer.
• 45:03
  That's fair, because I've been flying through and I, it's been
• 45:07
  a, you know what? The killing things have been
• 45:08
  easy. Yeah, just I didn't find stuff.
• 45:11
  It doesn't get hard until the last court.
• 45:15
  But there's two boss encounters towards the end of the game, the
• 45:19
  first one which I won't spoil. But you'll know when it happens
• 45:23
  is a lot more challenging than it should be.
• 45:25
  But you yeah you get. Yeah I'd up it.
• 45:27
  If you can what you guys finally both playing the legendary
• 45:31
  version or whatever the new one is.
• 45:34
  Yeah. So it's all comes off.
• 45:35
  The one launchers like, you know, you're loading the game
• 45:37
  and you can install all three games within it.
• 45:40
  But yeah, it's like it's the legend.
• 45:42
  But you and your empty say, Jose on PS4.
• 45:44
  Yeah. No, I'm playing on Xbox.
• 45:47
  All right. Yeah, I'm I yeah, my Xbox nice,
• 45:51
  just for those achievements, but it was literally sat in the sun
• 45:54
  of I bought. It November December last year,
• 45:57
  we just sat in the cellophane and it was kind of a, this is a
• 46:00
  big one. I think I bought it because it
• 46:01
  was, like, on the cheap. Hmm.
• 46:03
  And I've never played a mass effect, and I've got a feeling,
• 46:06
  I'm going to get fully dragged in, its why?
• 46:08
  It's a sort of what I've got. A bit of time.
• 46:10
  Let's do that a lot, but it does sound like I'm gonna be absolute
• 46:12
  right into my good to remember that.
• 46:13
  The first, the first one is the A Slayer for where, you know,
• 46:17
  and the great the solid grounding for with the second
• 46:20
  the second and the third one go, the second one.
• 46:22
  I know practically every video game put person that I know
• 46:27
  holds the second one in their top five or top 10.
• 46:30
  What was that? Post that Dave did fairly
• 46:31
  recently? Yeah dude and it ranked that's
• 46:35
  what piqued my interest to keep keep going with again a little
• 46:37
  bit as well that especially number two.
• 46:40
  Like I said, there's a lot of people seeing that.
• 46:41
  Number 24, Praises be like best video game ever the characters
• 46:44
  and the story. Stories and the interweave, the
• 46:46
  interview, woven kind of social element of to it's just crackers
• 46:54
  crackers. They put that into one, get into
• 46:55
  a game but there's also good because it's the legendary
• 46:58
  edition is and it was EA as he was getting more and more famous
• 47:03
  for selling DLC, that should be part of the game.
• 47:06
  There's a lot of content in there, Joe as well.
• 47:09
  So yeah, stick with it, I guarantee if you stick with it,
• 47:13
  you'll enjoy it. You'll go.
• 47:14
  Yeah. Okay, that was all right.
• 47:15
  That Okay, but then when you get to second one, you be like yet
• 47:18
  worth the wait. This will be awesome.
• 47:19
  Cool. Sorry Dave back to you.
• 47:26
  Do you want to do? Come on.
• 47:27
  You can quit giving me one quick question.
• 47:29
  I'm going to read this one out as it appears in the agenda,
• 47:31
  which I think is Dave's long boring list of old shit.
• 47:34
  Yeah, that is these basically okay my God I just spit baby got
• 47:38
  it, right? So what is you were talking
• 47:43
  about your Elden ring addiction? There you are.
• 47:46
  I said last month I was having a hard time like picking something
• 47:48
  to play after that. So some basically I just I just
• 47:53
  still weren't ready to really pick up a big game.
• 47:55
  Started off. As you mentioned earlier, I
• 47:58
  started playing Guardians of the Galaxy.
• 48:01
  Absolutely brilliant. I've only played about two or
• 48:04
  three hours. I think seeing a picture of Sam
• 48:07
  Fox up on the wall, in the bedroom, right at the start.
• 48:10
  Literally, when you start just sucked me right in?
• 48:14
  It's funny, it's got really good script.
• 48:16
  It's, it's not the most technically accomplished
• 48:19
  against, but it's really good, but I just is it third person.
• 48:22
  Further sending you miss you sort of control.
• 48:25
  All your squad at the same time but they are just basically
• 48:28
  running about doing their own thing and you just like fire
• 48:31
  their specials off when you want.
• 48:32
  You play as Star-Lord the whole time.
• 48:35
  As far as I know, I haven't got very far.
• 48:39
  Can I just pause for two seconds?
• 48:42
  Yep, someone gotten along going. If it's me, I'll be editing
• 48:48
  afterwards. The discs are largely going up.
• 48:50
  I was cast, I had to move. My microphone is because there
• 48:53
  are two dogs, having a right. Go are here.
• 48:56
  The full a rough sex with dr. Simpson a rough to do, it should
• 49:01
  have recorded it. There's a there's a market on
• 49:03
  that black country dog. Sex, hit Back Country Ruff, dog
• 49:07
  sucks. Anyway, we're sorry, right?
• 49:10
  So so basically, I've been, I've had a month of I've gone back to
• 49:15
  my regular, so I've been playing Avengers again, which I know
• 49:18
  everyone hates, but I love it. It's basically, it's basically a
• 49:22
  fly around smash it up with you mate.
• 49:24
  It's like a street. Rage with superheroes in your
• 49:27
  mates plane. They released like lady thought,
• 49:31
  if Jane Foster, so I've leveled her up to max level as well
• 49:35
  because I am sad, still love it. Been playing a bit of OverWatch,
• 49:41
  again, love that. That's just a great going to
• 49:43
  just jump in to shoot a few things.
• 49:46
  It's one of the only team-based shooter, some fairly confident
• 49:49
  competent at Heroes of the Storm.
• 49:54
  Again, as usual. That's That's like a MOBA on the
• 49:57
  PC but sadly never heard of that.
• 50:00
  So it's basically all of Activision's characters.
• 50:04
  So you've got like, people from OverWatch people from Warcraft,
• 50:06
  people from Star. Okay.
• 50:08
  People from Diablo, it's a mobile, you know, top down click
• 50:12
  and do. It's like a hero fighter kind of
• 50:14
  thing, but they come out with a statement this week and said
• 50:20
  that's it. They're not doing anything else
• 50:21
  for it. It's going to stay in
• 50:22
  maintenance mode, though. Nothing.
• 50:24
  No going. Which makes me sad because I put
• 50:27
  I've played that game basically every day since it came out.
• 50:33
  So I've been playing and PC game called a know, each other.
• 50:38
  Now, this is a, this is brilliant game.
• 50:39
  It's like a it's like a 2d side on and every single Pixel is
• 50:45
  like a it's got its like physically stimulated so you can
• 50:51
  shoot a little hole and lava will drain through all the water
• 50:54
  from the box top and you can do all sorts of like crazy
• 50:57
  combinations of things. You basically play as a wizard
• 50:59
  and it's like it's like a rogue like you know, you do one Bond,
• 51:03
  I start all over again. It's such a good game.
• 51:08
  It's really, really atmospheric, really just fun to experiment
• 51:12
  in. You can make all you can
• 51:13
  basically make your own spells up in it by combinations of all
• 51:17
  the others. It's just one really good.
• 51:19
  Good romp. You can't really finish it.
• 51:21
  I don't think so. I've just been carrying that
• 51:24
  called again date. It's called No, Anita noi ta,
• 51:28
  it's just good. Then I saw a lot of people
• 51:34
  playing a new PC game called pagal in, which is like an RPG
• 51:40
  version of Peggle. Basically at a lots and lots of
• 51:44
  people playing this on Twitch and things like that.
• 51:47
  And talking about it, you're very much.
• 51:49
  You're talking my language. Dave, what?
• 51:51
  Hagel and RPG element? Well I uh I got an older game
• 51:54
  which is basically the same Same thing that I've never played
• 51:56
  before. Call Drowned God.
• 51:58
  So I've been playing that and that is just such a great.
• 52:01
  Have it on at the side, do a round of it when you feel like
• 52:06
  it today off, carry on, I think you would like that being a
• 52:09
  Peggle fan map. All right.
• 52:13
  I will I will look forward to the address where I'll write
• 52:15
  that down at this time. Yeah I miss you too.
• 52:17
  What is called round God? So vanguard's the one that I
• 52:23
  already had, I've been playing some more chivalry too.
• 52:28
  That's like a mass medieval Knight combat simulator so it's
• 52:33
  so funny. It's just imagine like the
• 52:37
  objective versions of battlefield but you with like 40
• 52:41
  or the knights who are running around doing proper combat
• 52:43
  hacking each of this limbs off and everything.
• 52:46
  It's just hilarious, it's such a funny game.
• 52:50
  Is it easy to be shittin? You could be That's why you'll
• 52:54
  like it. You can, you could even be one
• 52:58
  of those, you could be a swine, you can play as an Archer and
• 53:01
  just hang at the back, getting kills and stuff.
• 53:03
  But everyone hates archerd. So everyone just makes a beeline
• 53:06
  straight for them but it's so funny because you can do like
• 53:09
  emote. So you just have like 30 players
• 53:11
  charging with your in. You're all just group now
• 53:15
  charging of people going everywhere.
• 53:18
  Absolutely superb game and they just stopped.
• 53:22
  Updated it with it, a free DLC. It's like an upgrade to the
• 53:25
  game. You can't not have it and
• 53:28
  they've added like horseback combat into it and divided like
• 53:32
  like Middle East and fraction so you know, like the Ottomans and
• 53:36
  you know, block Mongols and things.
• 53:38
  It's superb, I've played a bit more flight simulator because
• 53:45
  there was a free, you could, you could get the warthog at the
• 53:48
  Pelican from Halo in it. Yeah, I So what isida and have
• 53:54
  that for nothing? Yeah.
• 53:55
  So because the way - all right, first thing I did was I flew a
• 53:59
  pelican straight to my house and landed in the car park outside
• 54:03
  here. Fantastic didn't hover can tell
• 54:08
  ya. It's like a, I saw that can VTOL
• 54:10
  jet so you can, it works look sort of like a helicopter
• 54:13
  because they're adding helicopters in as well.
• 54:16
  Helicopters in gliders. That's the one thing that I can
• 54:20
  never know. When I first when it first came
• 54:21
  out. I, uh, Obviously like everybody
• 54:23
  does go to your house. Yeah, and by the time I get
• 54:26
  where I'm going by my house, I was like, but I might even got
• 54:28
  it all took a screenshot of it. I'm half of my little the
• 54:31
  direction. You couldn't quite slow down to
• 54:34
  kind of really take in, but obviously with that public and
• 54:37
  you can just basically. Yeah.
• 54:38
  So what we do she's like hit the afterburners and it turns it
• 54:41
  into a proper plane type flight. Excellent.
• 54:46
  Just my it just feels good flying that thing.
• 54:50
  One tip with that is if you don't file See.
• 54:53
  Downloading the like 130 gig install of it?
• 54:57
  Just I play on the cloud because all it's all patched, it's all
• 55:01
  ready? And it works just as well just
• 55:03
  play. I demonstrated it to my boss
• 55:06
  because he's a big Aviation fan and I just like shared my screen
• 55:10
  and I went right. Here we go.
• 55:11
  I'm in a browser, booted up, excluding the in the browser and
• 55:17
  just played some flight Sim and just flew around a bit.
• 55:20
  Showing him. You loved it.
• 55:22
  It just been to the cost for their show of the road.
• 55:25
  So he was, he was well up for looking at that.
• 55:28
  Yeah, I've played some more strange Brigade with my friends
• 55:34
  on a Tuesday night. That is an absolutely superb
• 55:38
  shoot. I'm not going to carry on about
• 55:40
  that. But we've only got one little
• 55:41
  detail, see Mission left to do. Now again, I've also played some
• 55:46
  more Far Cry 5. Now we tried to remain so by, so
• 55:49
  we have a slide What we do. You did it?
• 55:53
  No it doesn't help that when you forget and then you get all
• 55:58
  these like people mystically appearing in drug transience and
• 56:02
  things like that. It's just like what is going on.
• 56:07
  Yeah, I remember that game. Been quite tricky in places in
• 56:09
  one of the one of the sections I think we were the one of this
• 56:13
  this sister. That's where else?
• 56:15
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 56:16
  It's a shooting you with trippy darts, all the time, don't they?
• 56:19
  Yeah. So did you just keep tripping
• 56:21
  out wherever you go? Oh, and I've been completely
• 56:24
  obsessed with Microsoft reward points.
• 56:28
  I've been doing those everyday and I reckon that jewel is now
• 56:33
  my most played game this year. You know, you play jewel in the
• 56:38
  Xbox app, it's like a Bejeweled match-three Puzzler that you had
• 56:43
  points from it. So yeah, I think that my
• 56:45
  genuinely be my most played game this year.
• 56:49
  There, there is Jed with spoiler alert, there's a question about
• 56:51
  this later. We could talk about it because I
• 56:53
  have no fucking idea what that's right.
• 56:55
  It's good but could it will save it till they meet a lady.
• 56:57
  That's okay. Right.
• 57:00
  I'm not even part way through yet gloves.
• 57:03
  I warned you hold on to your britches guys.
• 57:06
  So games I have actually completed this month, I played
• 57:11
  telling lies which is like a piece it together FMV game where
• 57:18
  you watch clips and you get keywords and you type them into
• 57:21
  the search and you get other Clips off those keywords and you
• 57:25
  try to work out what the hell's going on?
• 57:28
  It's a sequel to her story which was really, really good.
• 57:32
  I really enjoyed that one. This one, it's the most boring
• 57:36
  game. I've ever played in my life and
• 57:38
  I cannot believe or finished it, it's basically like Googling
• 57:42
  tick-tocks for two hours. It's the worst thing in the
• 57:46
  world. Yeah, I briefly went on to tick
• 57:52
  tock and I just gotten too old. I just can't go.
• 57:55
  It's not what? No, just starts not for me for
• 57:58
  the kids. So her story was the one where
• 58:03
  it's like he pieced together from text messages and things.
• 58:06
  Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what it is.
• 58:09
  Same people. How'd you get it wrong?
• 58:13
  The second, I'm just not as good story or just I just could not
• 58:16
  give a shit about a single person in the game.
• 58:19
  Just okay, that unique? Yeah, hmm.
• 58:23
  I just thought it was a bit worried and none of the
• 58:25
  characters, drew me in and I'll just I'll just didn't care at
• 58:27
  the end. I just wanted to get it over and
• 58:29
  done with unlike we're back. Remember last month I'd played
• 58:35
  Full Throttle, the lucasfilm game.
• 58:39
  Yes, you. So again this comes on to we've
• 58:42
  been playing that high score day every day.
• 58:44
  And you know this it's five games to get from the pictures
• 58:47
  and from them I've been sort of picking up on them and playing
• 58:50
  some of them. So yeah I played through day of
• 58:53
  the tentacle remaster. Absolutely fantastic.
• 58:57
  What a day of sheer joy that whilst it's still got its really
• 59:02
  clunky to control, you know, are you knocking at door knocking at
• 59:05
  these? Put your licks in like a
• 59:07
  session? The oh yeah I'll play them like
• 59:09
  through. Walt normally that on tight
• 59:13
  long. Okay.
• 59:14
  Well you just what you think is a year when we were a kid.
• 59:16
  What Dave's doing this? Okay remember an awful lot of
• 59:19
  what to do though because I played it obviously back in like
• 59:23
  Amiga days and things like that. It's because you referring the
• 59:26
  cheat help like like in the sky walk around 20 25 quid an hour
• 59:34
  to get those tips chips and teats sorry I'd completely
• 59:38
  completely me interject myself all over your face so I finished
• 59:43
  was another bizarre point-and-click.
• 59:46
  Now this one took me longer, it's called Genesis Noir and
• 59:51
  it's it's fucked up. This game is it's basically like
• 59:56
  a jazz themed point and click adventure, that turns into a
• 1:00:01
  sort of Noir space-time Adventure.
• 1:00:05
  It is very big very, very weird. I can't rely on him.
• 1:00:09
  You're an amazing, good. It's got great soundtrack.
• 1:00:11
  It's got terrible indeed. No, unfortunately.
• 1:00:14
  But I really, really enjoyed this game.
• 1:00:18
  Yeah. It's just like a surreal nor
• 1:00:20
  game that spans like time and space.
• 1:00:23
  I can't really describe it to you because it's, it would spoil
• 1:00:27
  things. It's very, very unique.
• 1:00:31
  Then we move on to what I've been playing on retro.
• 1:00:34
  A shit to me. This is just new stuff.
• 1:00:40
  So I've been sort of curating more retro stuff in my emulation
• 1:00:45
  stuff, quite now, it's quite frankly, ridiculous.
• 1:00:48
  I could probably do a retro year of Shame for the rest of my days
• 1:00:53
  or I could know with what I've got collected.
• 1:00:58
  So as as we were talking about earlier, they've been a couple
• 1:01:01
  of Nintendo releases this month so the first one was we Sports?
• 1:01:07
  I thought I'm not I can't buy that.
• 1:01:09
  What? Need to buy anyway, I've got
• 1:01:11
  that. So, I've dug out the old way.
• 1:01:14
  I've been playing loads and Wii Sports.
• 1:01:16
  Yes. How much fun you get for fucking
• 1:01:19
  games being? I'll go get my old brush and go
• 1:01:21
  and play. However, the fact that because a
• 1:01:22
  game comes out and you don't have to buy it, that will give
• 1:01:25
  you courage to go and play. It's a great randomizer all
• 1:01:27
  basically to show The Loft. Look there's the old we Casey -
• 1:01:32
  oh hey so I've got we fit I've got a wee board that's my friend
• 1:01:37
  Mark borrow me one of them. Because I'm getting too fat, so
• 1:01:41
  I needed to do some exercise. So, we Sports Resort all
• 1:01:45
  fantastic. All as fun as the day, they came
• 1:01:48
  out. I've not played an awful lot of
• 1:01:50
  them because I have actually got back into going out, and
• 1:01:53
  walking, and doing, exercise and stuff.
• 1:01:54
  But all my God, the, we so much fun.
• 1:01:58
  Likewise, I've also been playing Mario Strikers, we because it's
• 1:02:04
  just superb. And it's just as good as the new
• 1:02:07
  ones, really brilliant. A highly.
• 1:02:10
  He's getting away again. It was, it was talking about
• 1:02:13
  light gun shooters, the other day, I was playing a good one.
• 1:02:16
  It's called Ghost Squad, it's just it's just a superb like, on
• 1:02:20
  Rails, Time Crisis, type shooter, so much fun.
• 1:02:24
  And you absolutely knackered after you played all of these
• 1:02:28
  with the wagon off and moving around, iPhone is like an Eskimo
• 1:02:33
  Resident Evil 4 on the Wii is like one of the best game.
• 1:02:36
  And, and there's a, I've played on the PlayStation.
• 1:02:38
  It's Dreadful but was all right, it's like A standard rest but on
• 1:02:41
  the way it's like one of the best games ever or as for fun
• 1:02:45
  visit for if you play. Yeah.
• 1:02:47
  Yeah. It's got a slightly tweaked.
• 1:02:49
  Construct control scheme. I love it.
• 1:02:51
  Did you know they do, they're going to release yet another
• 1:02:54
  remaster of resi for as well. That was in the in the Microsoft
• 1:02:59
  Show. Recently, it does look good does
• 1:03:01
  look pretty good. I would say Rosie for he's the
• 1:03:03
  best one for me because it was fun and not too scary.
• 1:03:08
  Okay. Also on the way.
• 1:03:11
  You know, I told you about my secret love and pull-offs racing
• 1:03:14
  games. But here, I absolutely love
• 1:03:18
  them. I've been playing this Champion.
• 1:03:22
  Jacques Champion G1 jocker. You it's really funny because
• 1:03:25
  you have to get the hell away from the going everything.
• 1:03:30
  So you're you're the jockey. Yeah, you're the jockey of this
• 1:03:33
  one, not the not the horse. And also I didn't think it was a
• 1:03:38
  choice between you being the A jockey, although, that would be
• 1:03:41
  good. I thought it was more like a
• 1:03:42
  sort of you set up. It's more that you work at
• 1:03:45
  Ladbrokes is. Okay.
• 1:03:47
  So me like I'm talking about there's a dearth of shit arcade
• 1:03:52
  game. I've been playing called are
• 1:03:54
  leaked Arlington horse racing which is you just stand there.
• 1:03:57
  Put fake credits in a bet on them.
• 1:04:01
  It's pointless. I love it that way sometimes.
• 1:04:10
  Strikes in, it's called it's awful.
• 1:04:13
  Okay. Well Stephen played all played
• 1:04:16
  an absolutely superb Spectrum game.
• 1:04:19
  It's called Indiana Jones and the Falcon a type A Lasting
• 1:04:23
  life, right? It was it's the best-looking
• 1:04:28
  Spectrum game of ever seed and applied through the first level.
• 1:04:32
  I just loved it and then apply through the second level.
• 1:04:35
  And then they just went, you don't really think we're gonna
• 1:04:37
  bake any more of this. Then, we're only two levels.
• 1:04:40
  Is this shit? I was completely, it was
• 1:04:46
  incredible to fucking screams. That's all you got. 22-inch jr.
• 1:04:52
  Getting graphical reviews. Yeah, Special games.
• 1:04:56
  It's all current ear. I told you to leave Europe,
• 1:05:00
  leave you fan boys shoes at the door.
• 1:05:02
  We play everything on this podcast.
• 1:05:05
  The last one apply leave your sense of time at the door.
• 1:05:09
  I also played Mech assault on the original Xbox because I
• 1:05:13
  wanted some big Stompy Robot action.
• 1:05:15
  That was great, but there's no multiplayer, so, fuck it, right?
• 1:05:21
  Who woke up. I woke up.
• 1:05:22
  I thought I wasn't thinking something right.
• 1:05:23
  Wanted, that's what I do smell nail.
• 1:05:28
  All right. See, I think I would wake up
• 1:05:29
  like that but I don't have Dave's Niche level and real
• 1:05:33
  depth of video game knowledge. I feel like a bit of robots
• 1:05:36
  Stumpy with lasers and the option to choose a haircut and
• 1:05:41
  down below yet. What you want to say you should
• 1:05:48
  do. You should charge for this
• 1:05:50
  service. Dave, you're in people in like a
• 1:05:52
  gaming Funk and like, I don't know what I want and just have
• 1:05:56
  like, a sequential. Hell, I saw.
• 1:05:57
  You play any old shit. Some of the barman, you walk
• 1:06:05
  into the bar and the bar mitzvah Dave just knows what.
• 1:06:08
  Ah, so it'll be the immediate needs know.
• 1:06:13
  There is a place like that called the arcade V in Cardiff
• 1:06:18
  and it's basically, like, It took crossed with the museum and
• 1:06:23
  an arcade. So you go in and they've got all
• 1:06:25
  the old systems on the shelves and you basically go in order a
• 1:06:28
  drink and say, ah, I quite like to play the dragon 32 today, he
• 1:06:34
  just gets off the self sets it up for.
• 1:06:36
  Yeah, there you go. It's so perfect.
• 1:06:39
  He was saying that this is there's a bar that when you go
• 1:06:41
  in you or drinking like you want to play Street Fighter 2, they
• 1:06:45
  actually just read your mind because I actually went to a
• 1:06:47
  restaurant in New Zealand, a steakhouse And they would, they
• 1:06:51
  Pride themselves on being able to take you order without even
• 1:06:54
  asking what you wanted? They knew by looking at you what
• 1:06:57
  a slice of meat, you understand how you wanted it cooking.
• 1:07:00
  I thought you was talking to that person in that bar in
• 1:07:02
  Cardiff was doing that video. Games could have been fucking
• 1:07:05
  Sensational. I've walk into that restaurant
• 1:07:08
  and then just give me the whole key Barb on the spike.
• 1:07:11
  Yeah, exactly. How about, you know, God's go
• 1:07:16
  see if walking into a restaurant or into a bar and saying I'm
• 1:07:20
  going to play On the Amiga, and they recommend a drink that
• 1:07:22
  pairs well with it. I simply.
• 1:07:25
  Yes, yes, why don't, why don't we open that ball between the
• 1:07:29
  for? We could probably just Dave, can
• 1:07:31
  we just get some Optics setup? And we're halfway there Lads?
• 1:07:39
  Not sure you in a prime location or maybe?
• 1:07:41
  Yeah. The clientele of and you're
• 1:07:45
  ready. So that when we do is wipe down
• 1:07:48
  to my stuff up and play this, Club.
• 1:07:53
  Can we know? Geez, what could be wrong about?
• 1:07:56
  This is I'm just gonna cut this down.
• 1:07:58
  So, no, no mate. It's not a Sloan, you take your
• 1:08:01
  time. Go sit.
• 1:08:03
  This is about, this is about playing because of being a bit
• 1:08:05
  idh lead with all of this. I've basically got into ADHD
• 1:08:10
  game. So I've just been absolutely
• 1:08:12
  massive on an you will love this mat because I've got balls deep
• 1:08:16
  into Tempest or all the different versions of Just got
• 1:08:21
  mad on like getting some stuff. And but it's the same game.
• 1:08:25
  There wasn't that sort of, but so I like the call them trance
• 1:08:31
  blasters. Basically.
• 1:08:32
  So it's put your headphones on maximum music, psychedelic
• 1:08:36
  visuals. So I've been playing like,
• 1:08:39
  Tempest original arcade. I've been playing Tempest on the
• 1:08:44
  Jaguar that is easily one of the best versions and then Jeff
• 1:08:48
  Minter. Did txk The Vita, you know, all
• 1:08:52
  set, I even went out to the pub and took it with me.
• 1:08:56
  Oh, just stop their fight. It was wicked.
• 1:09:01
  Tempest 2000, which is the lightest one, that's basically
• 1:09:05
  txk again and all these other stuff like moose life and
• 1:09:10
  polybius and all sorts of blasters.
• 1:09:13
  Anything like that. Even I even started playing
• 1:09:15
  Geometry Wars 2 last night on the 360 and Barons.
• 1:09:19
  High School is still at the Top Every Now And every now and
• 1:09:24
  again and again if I boost up the Xbox, I'm not in real mood.
• 1:09:27
  I will always go and see that I've got do was to installed and
• 1:09:31
  I will I would open. I will let them them serve as a
• 1:09:34
  still there. I love when you steal a diamond
• 1:09:37
  and the Xbox like crazy, and it's all in 4k.
• 1:09:41
  It looks unbelievable. It looks like an original, you
• 1:09:46
  know, proper Vector display and I'm downloading that.
• 1:09:50
  After affiliate is super, you just gotta play and if you've
• 1:09:53
  got any of the tempests fire them up because they are just
• 1:09:56
  the greatest, I'm going to confess to your players and
• 1:10:00
  people at once. Sounds amazing are so good.
• 1:10:03
  It sounds so yeah. So I've been into all that kind
• 1:10:05
  of stuff and some older ones like Robotron and I've even even
• 1:10:10
  for me I'm going to show you this because even for me I've
• 1:10:13
  gone balls. They So basically, my favorite
• 1:10:21
  arcade game of all time, he's defender in the arcade but which
• 1:10:24
  I used to play with my dad, I was always shiitake and it's
• 1:10:28
  never ever felt right. And I always said if there's one
• 1:10:31
  arcade machine, I'm gonna get, I'm gonna get a Defender, but I
• 1:10:34
  looked into him and they cost like tens of thousands.
• 1:10:38
  Now it's just not on. So I've tried to play, I tried
• 1:10:41
  to play with like my normal arcade, stick and pads and stuff
• 1:10:44
  didn't work. And then I got talking to
• 1:10:46
  someone. On the name.
• 1:10:47
  Malaysian for because I said, right I want to build one of
• 1:10:50
  these and he said, oh I'll get some plans and sort you out.
• 1:10:53
  So I now have an actual Defender control panel dedicated.
• 1:10:59
  Holy moly. So it's only for one game,
• 1:11:01
  that's it. So yeah, now Place properly, I
• 1:11:06
  can place is that. It's a heavier.
• 1:11:09
  That's what like this is. It's about as heavy as an
• 1:11:11
  arcade, the normal stick, it's not writing or anything.
• 1:11:15
  So it's basically like a saint Image box with the buttons and
• 1:11:19
  some nice vinyl and a controller and it looks it looks high
• 1:11:22
  quality Divine Law. Makes it look like you've got
• 1:11:25
  everything going for it. I'm going for it.
• 1:11:28
  So there you go. And now I've basically perfect
• 1:11:32
  way to play that. I love it.
• 1:11:35
  But yeah that's it and listening to loads of hawkwind and
• 1:11:38
  mind-melting stuff like they. So I think it all is fitted into
• 1:11:41
  place. Yep.
• 1:11:45
  So Finkle doushite as well. Now to we've done a few
• 1:11:51
  Community like night slightly, which have been really superb
• 1:11:55
  with the, you know, the community.
• 1:11:58
  So we started off with the summer games Fest where a lot of
• 1:12:02
  us watch that together, you know, it's always good to have a
• 1:12:05
  beer and an actor and watch out everything that was on.
• 1:12:09
  One thing I wanted to say about that is remember Cactus if
• 1:12:12
  there's something that you'd like to see at E3 and I said
• 1:12:16
  please just Let their turnout then just release games without
• 1:12:21
  song and dance and it without them coming out in three years
• 1:12:24
  and they came out right at the start of the Xbox conference and
• 1:12:27
  said, all of these are out this year.
• 1:12:29
  No. Missing about plan.
• 1:12:31
  Brilliant, really enjoyed that. We've done some.
• 1:12:34
  More Plants vs. Zombies. 2 Garden Warfare 2 with
• 1:12:39
  the gears and be as a lot on a Friday hilarious, but we've had
• 1:12:45
  a couple of really big decent For guys night at the last few
• 1:12:49
  weeks, which have been great because it's basically been like
• 1:12:52
  gears and beers, people, midlife, Gamers, and friends and
• 1:12:58
  Associated. And with a nap with hard enough,
• 1:13:00
  people to run custom lobbies. So now I'm messing around, we've
• 1:13:04
  had, you know, like nearly 20 people and time it's been so I
• 1:13:09
  think he was born he was more than that day.
• 1:13:11
  Within the first one we did that very first Friday two weeks ago.
• 1:13:15
  It was close like 27 people. I think was in that lobby at one
• 1:13:18
  point. It was, it was, it was a lot of
• 1:13:21
  people. We actually, because it was a
• 1:13:22
  lot of lot of people chatting. A lot of people kind of like,
• 1:13:25
  you know, how does voice chat work?
• 1:13:26
  Well, well, we used so party. Chat.
• 1:13:29
  You talk about this one. I've been talking for long
• 1:13:31
  enough. Neil God.
• 1:13:33
  Yeah, so M because it's cross platform.
• 1:13:36
  You can do it. There's actually a
• 1:13:38
  cross-platform element of full guys.
• 1:13:40
  Is this a party chat that goes across all of them?
• 1:13:43
  It's really clever. Wouldn't have thought something
• 1:13:46
  like that would would take Place.
• 1:13:47
  But yeah, you've got what I think the limit that we found
• 1:13:50
  from like an Xbox console and that was the game bar thing is
• 1:13:57
  that there's something like 16, I think it is.
• 1:14:00
  So we just found that that was all right to a certain limit.
• 1:14:02
  But then when you get beyond that we were going into that
• 1:14:04
  kind of like the party chat itself, but it's a stupid lie,
• 1:14:09
  silly game. I think every you've put your
• 1:14:11
  view played it Matthew. Yeah, I played it a bunch of
• 1:14:15
  times, I'm with people as well and yeah, it's fun but like I
• 1:14:17
  don't know. It was a long time ago.
• 1:14:19
  I'm sure the by the last two weeks that made a lot of money
• 1:14:21
  dinner. Yeah and I think at the moment I
• 1:14:23
  think that we did with the kind of move to free to play they and
• 1:14:26
  it moving to kind of like across all the consoles and stuff.
• 1:14:30
  I don't know if it's just a placebo effect but it does look
• 1:14:33
  visually and plays a bit better. It's faster.
• 1:14:35
  The frame rate and things like that is is more fun.
• 1:14:39
  I think you think was I think, what put me off was the fact
• 1:14:42
  that he felt so Random That was a over those a barrier of Entry
• 1:14:45
  had to get past some random to be expert and I never felt like
• 1:14:48
  a middle ground. Maybe that's maybe that's the
• 1:14:51
  funniest of all the day I suppose.
• 1:14:53
  That's why the custom games were so fun because it was only your
• 1:14:56
  slot playing no, no strangers. And can you could you tweak like
• 1:15:00
  what? Yeah, you got your private
• 1:15:03
  Library. You've got full control.
• 1:15:05
  Yeah, so Dave would take control, David be the host for
• 1:15:07
  everything and they would actually choose a set list of
• 1:15:09
  tracks that we courses. We do have you played it before,
• 1:15:13
  Joe I don't think so. You know, if you have it like
• 1:15:18
  it's one of those Trend me. It's basically Total Wipeout
• 1:15:22
  again. Oh sorry, yes, no, I I've seen
• 1:15:24
  about something completely different and no, I have, it's
• 1:15:28
  good. I got really into it one summer,
• 1:15:30
  like properly into it for one summer, but didn't we?
• 1:15:33
  But was like ice is great and then sort of drifted off because
• 1:15:37
  I was wanting to collect all the little things and everything for
• 1:15:39
  a little bit. But then yeah, just drifted
• 1:15:42
  drifted out of it and it is incredibly frustrating.
• 1:15:44
  Keep it straight. If you if I think, like, when we
• 1:15:48
  were doing these nights there's like 25 out of us.
• 1:15:52
  When you go out first round and all you can do is watch other
• 1:15:55
  people play like you, it is annoying but also it's part of
• 1:16:00
  the fun because you would then I find myself commentating and
• 1:16:03
  like on people's performances I guess that's what makes a
• 1:16:06
  difference when you're playing against people that like when
• 1:16:08
  you really know everyone else in the room as well, it's a lot
• 1:16:11
  more that b a bit more engaging because it's someone, you know
• 1:16:14
  it's doing it. You also drink did feel a bit
• 1:16:16
  like it's charity. Something really skillful while
• 1:16:19
  wearing, like boxing gloves. It felt like I was gonna eat
• 1:16:23
  your sandwich. Robot designed that way.
• 1:16:25
  Yeah, it's supposed to be that. Yeah, yeah, just felt this just
• 1:16:30
  feels till he's not joined in yet.
• 1:16:32
  He refuses. So it is not like it is way
• 1:16:36
  below its competitive, but it's not, he can't shoot people, so
• 1:16:42
  that doesn't happen. So no Dave But to your point
• 1:16:45
  over to know, you wanted to thank a couple of community
• 1:16:46
  lights. But that's, yeah, that's been
• 1:16:48
  good. Yeah, there's a really, really
• 1:16:49
  good fun. And that's me done.
• 1:16:52
  I'm not going to talk about anything else.
• 1:16:55
  I think we should go to jokes. We not heard from him for as a
• 1:16:57
  small. There's a been an update in this
• 1:16:59
  live working document on the job.
• 1:17:03
  Bye-bye, I think Matt's been highlighting.
• 1:17:06
  It's a whether there's been some breaking news or just a real
• 1:17:09
  desire for what comes next, but her How's the Abbot?
• 1:17:14
  How is the Abbot of it? I've been onto.
• 1:17:18
  I've been a super Wikipedia and buy all kinds.
• 1:17:20
  There's not a dead date yet, right?
• 1:17:22
  So I'll take Wikipedia, and it's, and space value, and we
• 1:17:26
  can suggest that the Saba is still very much with us.
• 1:17:29
  Yeah, we might have to prepare everybody.
• 1:17:37
  See you like, how the armed forces and the BBC that when the
• 1:17:40
  queen goes will have to prepare for it.
• 1:17:42
  Prosperous goes have, you know, done it.
• 1:17:45
  Like I've got in the Next Room like a black tie and suit that
• 1:17:48
  like it will run and get changed right away.
• 1:17:50
  So, it's protocol. Everything isn't it?
• 1:17:53
  Protocol and episode we'd like the guy who goes to the guy's
• 1:17:58
  house and he's just busy pictures of him everywhere.
• 1:18:00
  I thought you could say that's in the Next Room.
• 1:18:02
  Then Joe, you got, you will separate room to run into the
• 1:18:05
  Habit shed, just just as the death correspondent, I've just
• 1:18:09
  got the death kit. The death kit.
• 1:18:24
  Will there be a special show if it had?
• 1:18:25
  I think we'll all get together for True pre-record.
• 1:18:28
  One, just this case to release on the day in Miranda, could you
• 1:18:34
  imagine lamenting it came to give me reenactment the famous
• 1:18:38
  sketches and things like that. See you Jimmy type signatures
• 1:18:42
  and so far. Oh yeah, so yet know, as anybody
• 1:18:46
  have you tried to sneak any kind of references in last couple
• 1:18:49
  episodes jokes. I know that was like you and
• 1:18:51
  Dave were kind of trying to trick him as much as possible
• 1:18:54
  after. I've not the point, even when
• 1:18:56
  that took place, I'd even recognize that you had, but I've
• 1:18:59
  not heard anything of late. There's a lot of accidental
• 1:19:02
  atmosphere. There's lots of people say that
• 1:19:03
  mystery. Yeah, I think I like a candle
• 1:19:07
  that burns so bright. I've got it.
• 1:19:09
  Hey, Good idea Sizzle we get go we get hell on the cool just to
• 1:19:15
  clarify that. Yeah he said no I haven't done
• 1:19:20
  any better and getting better and Berg into a discussion about
• 1:19:23
  Danny DeVito was my favorite. I'm getting up getting the to
• 1:19:28
  play me in CGI version obviously in that in our Moodle course.
• 1:19:36
  Okay good and Joe tells about yeah he's been playing well I'm
• 1:19:39
  going to as As per usual, I'm going to maybe drift off a
• 1:19:43
  little bit, but there's a little bit of compute this games,
• 1:19:46
  little drift off back to GameStop drift off, but that
• 1:19:48
  will bring you back to this. Make will bring you back.
• 1:19:50
  Yeah, worry. So I suppose or we've already
• 1:19:52
  spoken about Mass Effect I've started Mass Effect 1.
• 1:19:57
  It's I wanted something new and I think this is going to pull me
• 1:20:01
  through and then after that I'll finish a couple because I've
• 1:20:03
  got, I've almost finished the DLC for the Frozen Wilds for
• 1:20:06
  Horizon. But I need something to get a
• 1:20:09
  little bit of a pull me. Some gaming for.
• 1:20:11
  So basically, every time I was picking a controller, it was
• 1:20:15
  like, here's a half-finished game, and there's another half
• 1:20:18
  inch. It's like go for lunch and
• 1:20:20
  finding our feet and sandwich. Like you don't want it what you
• 1:20:23
  want, something new. So this and this is doing that
• 1:20:26
  and it's it's slow because everything's been mad busy at
• 1:20:29
  the moment, just a lot of deadlines at once in.
• 1:20:32
  I've got two jobs in, add in a uni course as well and they all
• 1:20:35
  come at once. It's just, it's when it's,
• 1:20:38
  that's just made it too hectic to do.
• 1:20:40
  Now, so a couple of hours at a time I've been getting on with
• 1:20:43
  that, and I did get the Witcher set up and Dave help massively.
• 1:20:47
  And but I think this on the last one, where we actually got it
• 1:20:49
  started the I've played a little bit of a wander up and down a
• 1:20:53
  bridge on novigrad. I think it's Gallagher and been
• 1:20:56
  into scaling a little bit and wondered about a bit, but I
• 1:21:01
  think the PlayStation might need to take a trip to see Dave, in
• 1:21:04
  fact that we might need to arrange that for the summer, if
• 1:21:06
  that's possible to get it. I don't think I've got the next
• 1:21:09
  we need to take In half so it, but I'll put them in a deep,
• 1:21:14
  deep clean. But as compensation, I've been
• 1:21:17
  reading to The Witcher, the all the books are quid on Kindle at
• 1:21:21
  one stage, I think it was a midlife gamer.
• 1:21:24
  Post that got me, uncertainties Adam Gurney's.
• 1:21:26
  Post got me on took that they would like a quid on a it.
• 1:21:29
  So download the whole lot to the Kindle and I've been reading
• 1:21:31
  that it's really really good. Like it's the same kind of
• 1:21:34
  what's the same thing, isn't it? The games based off?
• 1:21:37
  It really, really well. And the game just play a bit
• 1:21:38
  like a novel as well. Sometimes it puts Like there's
• 1:21:40
  so many little bits, got that feeling of the games.
• 1:21:43
  And yeah, that's really and the team those characters you, like,
• 1:21:47
  with those characters again, but in slightly new, yeah
• 1:21:50
  surroundings and in a different way to look obviously the TV
• 1:21:52
  show that was on on Netflix, which is again, absolutely
• 1:21:55
  brilliant. I think the game and the TV show
• 1:21:57
  and the book are all excellent and little not done.
• 1:22:00
  The second series of that TV show, it's okay.
• 1:22:03
  It says, easier task than the first much easier.
• 1:22:06
  Much more straightforward. Yeah, I've got have got the the
• 1:22:11
  audiobook of the which one of the winter book?
• 1:22:13
  Do you think it's one of the first ones?
• 1:22:14
  I think it's called the last week.
• 1:22:15
  The last which Last Wish is I've just read that and it's great.
• 1:22:18
  Yeah, really. Yeah, I mean I guess we probably
• 1:22:22
  know the story anyway but it's explored in a bit more detail,
• 1:22:30
  listen to the audiobook because generally we do commute to work
• 1:22:33
  or whatever kind of thing if I'm doing a particular boring task
• 1:22:37
  and I'll try and restore. But what I'm It.
• 1:22:40
  But yeah, it's a very it's a very good listen.
• 1:22:44
  So I imagine the reader to be just as good.
• 1:22:45
  Kind of what was really bothering you and had kind of
• 1:22:48
  thing. That's good.
• 1:22:49
  Well, we want to audiobooks very briefly and I'm going to doose's
• 1:22:51
  across medium year of Shona. And I don't know if anyone's
• 1:22:55
  ever read the Sandman comment, it's might be happening.
• 1:22:57
  Absolute favorite amazing. Well, the audio book that's on
• 1:23:01
  ordered at the moment, but for my main job, it's 40 minutes.
• 1:23:04
  Each way in the car and drive me mad but genuinely Looking
• 1:23:08
  forward to the travel one hour data because it's such an
• 1:23:10
  amazing cast. And Neil, Gaiman has one of the
• 1:23:13
  narrator's and you've got James McAvoy as dream and that it's
• 1:23:20
  just brilliant. It's and so, and it's really
• 1:23:23
  well done atmosphere and I guess it helps, if you've read the
• 1:23:26
  comics because you're when they're talking about it, you're
• 1:23:29
  in those places in your mind, really easily because you've got
• 1:23:32
  the surroundings and you seen it all but I can't recommend that
• 1:23:35
  enough. It's so good.
• 1:23:36
  That's me. Drifting back into games.
• 1:23:39
  Helen started playing sonic tooth, so she's been quite a lot
• 1:23:44
  of Sonic 2, dude. How would someone playing Sonic
• 1:23:47
  2 in 2022 on the switch. So the this because I've got
• 1:23:50
  switch online. The there's loads of retro games
• 1:23:53
  that come on it. And it was it.
• 1:23:55
  So she'd been to this, which I'm sure there's in fact, I'm pretty
• 1:23:58
  sure if we plugged it right 3 pie and we've got one with it on
• 1:24:00
  but it's just not as immediate and ready, there's on the
• 1:24:02
  switch, it's just there and it's really, and there's some real
• 1:24:06
  like quality of life. For some of these, not like Mega
• 1:24:10
  into the challenge and the completing it and being at
• 1:24:13
  hardcore gamer, some of those games are bit off-putting.
• 1:24:16
  There's you can sort of time hounded rewind time on it and
• 1:24:21
  little bit. Oh, what was that game back in
• 1:24:23
  time? What's that other one?
• 1:24:24
  Where Super Time Force or yeah, whoever it was, we go back.
• 1:24:28
  But you can, if you press the two buttons on the side after
• 1:24:30
  you die and go back and forth. However, saying is, if you
• 1:24:33
  didn't have that at the moment she'd given up because it's just
• 1:24:37
  like I haven't got The time to do the extra hours to go back to
• 1:24:41
  where, like, if I die, I don't want to spend 10 minutes getting
• 1:24:44
  back to where I came for five minutes, getting back to where I
• 1:24:46
  came for. I just I'll go back and take the
• 1:24:49
  hit. And she actually, it's men that
• 1:24:51
  she's really enjoyed the game. And as she's finished it to
• 1:24:56
  Philadelphia and select, he's a real tough.
• 1:24:58
  One, as you did have some rules, you would go back to the start
• 1:25:00
  of an encounter most of the time or, you know, if she'd be eaten
• 1:25:03
  half of a boss, should go back to the point, they could set her
• 1:25:08
  own checkpoints. If you're getting, I'll go from
• 1:25:09
  here, I'll go from here server, and that got then I got, I was
• 1:25:14
  helping out a little bit. I was Tails because I was just
• 1:25:15
  sort of dip in and out and doing other stuff.
• 1:25:17
  Sometimes, it should just be there.
• 1:25:18
  And that's where it's acceptable to be Tails.
• 1:25:20
  I think she's like, you can't be asked.
• 1:25:24
  So you just and on Sonic 2, Tails isn't as useful.
• 1:25:27
  As he's on Sonic 3, you can't pick you up and take you places
• 1:25:30
  and stuff, but that was quite a bit and then I got motivated
• 1:25:33
  just to do the last battle. So I remembered 1965 09:17 if
• 1:25:37
  anyone struggling The sound, the sound of selector cheat that
• 1:25:43
  brings you the level selector. If you go and play sound number
• 1:25:46
  19, then 65, then 0, 9 and 17. You gotta level studied not
• 1:25:50
  there though. And it's some, someone someone
• 1:25:52
  at save his birthday and there's another one that lets you debug
• 1:25:55
  mode. If you can't remember that, to
• 1:25:57
  look that one up. But I genuinely remembered 1965
• 1:25:59
  09:17 from back in the day. So I went and did the final
• 1:26:04
  encounter and it's hard as well. And I did have to go Back a
• 1:26:09
  couple of times and cheap but then actually once you get cuz I
• 1:26:12
  remember the pattern, I only probably did the cheap once or
• 1:26:15
  twice and then it's just like oh where is easy enough to avoid if
• 1:26:17
  you equip but he is he's a booger.
• 1:26:20
  If like I don't think she played it much, she'd always passed
• 1:26:23
  when she was younger. She was past the controls of a
• 1:26:25
  brother for the bosses so you play along and I can't be asked
• 1:26:27
  to do, so she's never learned all the weaknesses.
• 1:26:31
  So it's quite interesting for it to do it that way without so
• 1:26:34
  much for time investment, what it's cool.
• 1:26:36
  It's good for Tinder working on some sort of Technology like At
• 1:26:38
  one point, we're there we can add 2 into the Mario games.
• 1:26:41
  Where if you couldn't do something, you can just press a
• 1:26:43
  button and it would do it. I'll check this in like I don't
• 1:26:47
  know, new Super Mario Brothers or something.
• 1:26:50
  I think for a lot of people is such a yes/no.
• 1:26:54
  Mario maker is got something like that.
• 1:26:56
  Where you can ask Luigi for help?
• 1:26:58
  Yeah, must be that. I need comes and helps you out.
• 1:27:00
  And makes it easier for Mario. Maker is one.
• 1:27:02
  That should be on my, you are a shame because I've not given it
• 1:27:04
  anything like, the amount of time it deserves.
• 1:27:07
  It's one word, like it's infinite Mario, isn't it?
• 1:27:08
  It's like, you can make your own Mario level people make.
• 1:27:11
  I know some of you are managing my continue on the switch and
• 1:27:13
  I've barely scratched it, you know.
• 1:27:16
  I mean, I thought it was a great, it doesn't grip, he does
• 1:27:18
  it but it's such a, it seems amazing.
• 1:27:21
  Oh, Claire. And the Greek letter Pi, I had
• 1:27:23
  made a level that was absolutely seen this and I didn't manage
• 1:27:26
  to. Yeah, I played that one, it's
• 1:27:28
  really odd but Yeah that means more more air time and it's
• 1:27:34
  right there's not much else. I've been playing is only like
• 1:27:36
  two more games, two and a half. I think I mentioned this on the
• 1:27:40
  chat. There's a company that makes
• 1:27:41
  torches that had was it was that just mean you do is you put it
• 1:27:44
  on the main chat don't remember but I know like that thing where
• 1:27:51
  you act it's like one or two for but with little torches for them
• 1:27:54
  down on the screen and you can win a torch and it moves trying
• 1:27:57
  to work out whether that actually counted my Joker but I
• 1:27:59
  didn't pay for it. Their game.
• 1:28:03
  Hey, be the only one. I'm trying to go Joker and the
• 1:28:09
  other thing I've picked up and I think it's gonna be doing quite
• 1:28:11
  a bit of traveling. So like I was in Birmingham and
• 1:28:14
  all sorts of exotic places like that, but a tour of all the she
• 1:28:19
  trains are an absolute nightmare.
• 1:28:21
  So I've been hammering Pokemon go like really as some reason
• 1:28:24
  it's absolutely hooked me again. Found I've got the controller
• 1:28:27
  for the switch. That was like a little poker
• 1:28:29
  ball to it will connect to your phone.
• 1:28:32
  Phone to use it in the game. And it means you can, you don't
• 1:28:36
  have to be an absolute just like a child rather than a nerd.
• 1:28:40
  Just let me get these. Just repeat this for that for
• 1:28:43
  the, for the benefit of the listeners.
• 1:28:45
  But in Warsaw, will they installed a load of giant
• 1:28:48
  planets? Which looked exactly like the
• 1:28:51
  warp pipes in Mario. So now, I've just got this image
• 1:28:55
  of Joe walking through also, with a Pokeball and some more
• 1:28:59
  sort of person just go easy. Please.
• 1:29:02
  So what? Yeah, the thing that sees,
• 1:29:12
  collect all the stuff by, just pressing a button on the side of
• 1:29:14
  the controller, the controller is just a little round sphere.
• 1:29:17
  So you said you're walking along the Pokeball in your pocket or
• 1:29:19
  are you just pleased to see me? Yeah.
• 1:29:22
  Yeah, exactly. You have to play cricket?
• 1:29:26
  Do you have to play cricket you off to play cricket?
• 1:29:29
  You're like a cricket ball in your pocket?
• 1:29:31
  That's all. He's not rubbing it off the side
• 1:29:33
  of such as like Victory. This is I don't know how you
• 1:29:37
  play fucking poke go. I don't go clue.
• 1:29:40
  Just like you walk around real life, locations and catch
• 1:29:43
  Pokemon and and walk. Yeah.
• 1:29:45
  If you were hatched, well, there's a lot of like so there's
• 1:29:48
  a system in if a gift. So that's the thing that gets
• 1:29:51
  you through a lot of my mates and play in it and one or two
• 1:29:54
  mates. If you remember what I talked
• 1:29:56
  about, the one that says I was going to get Arceus because we
• 1:29:58
  were going to sort of play that at the same time.
• 1:30:00
  And that's why that was nearly my joker.
• 1:30:03
  Well, he's on it. So you can sort of send each
• 1:30:06
  other gifts and the gift the gift connected to the the place
• 1:30:11
  you picked it up. So I have managed to send them
• 1:30:13
  like the signalmen statue from Wolverhampton station and and
• 1:30:18
  the black horse statue for more. So that's like connected to the
• 1:30:22
  things. You said.
• 1:30:23
  So that's quite cool and when you travel, it is, so I'll get
• 1:30:26
  some new little stickers to send a bit of little postcards to
• 1:30:28
  send to people and collecting it, this little like tasks that
• 1:30:32
  keep you in it. I've brought I don't know.
• 1:30:34
  It's properly hooked me again for a little bit, but I go
• 1:30:37
  through phases, and I'll start playing again in a bit.
• 1:30:40
  And the last game is Majora's Mask, but I've just been playing
• 1:30:44
  a little bit of it. I've not moved much further on
• 1:30:46
  actually just been that mucking about in this in the Goron
• 1:30:49
  Village bit and following a ghost and got up to that bit and
• 1:30:52
  got ready to go into the ghosts house.
• 1:30:56
  But yeah, that's my I haven't finished any games but I've got
• 1:31:01
  a few queued up and I'm getting a lot more free time soon so I
• 1:31:05
  should make a bit more progress next next month, I don't think
• 1:31:08
  I'll ever have over the year. I will Such a lot of Dave, does
• 1:31:11
  it work? Now, don't forget all the people
• 1:31:14
  complain that mini is because their tiny short, quick blast
• 1:31:17
  games. So yeah.
• 1:31:20
  Yeah. Right?
• 1:31:24
  Well I'm about section. Yeah, going back to us what you
• 1:31:26
  been up to gaming whines, all right, I'll be real quick with
• 1:31:29
  extra fat day. You'll be happy to know that
• 1:31:31
  we've got some facts and figures coming up so we will punch the
• 1:31:34
  Money Matters. The you ready?
• 1:31:36
  Let's go. I'm ready, hides.
• 1:31:57
  So let's let's recap on some of the things, shall we say, if we
• 1:32:00
  remember that, I I ditched the idea of of monthly died, there
• 1:32:04
  is subscriptions to Xbox Live or whatever, I'm paying for the
• 1:32:07
  gold gig, so that came up for Renewal again, when Shreya back
• 1:32:11
  to see the keys and the 35 pounds, get a digital code
• 1:32:14
  immediately plumbed into my account.
• 1:32:16
  And once again, it said, come on my issue, it and get back on the
• 1:32:20
  odd, direct debit hits from a nice that was will give you an
• 1:32:24
  extra month for. And I said, no, I said,
• 1:32:27
  Microsoft, I prepaid and I paid for what I love and I love what
• 1:32:32
  I paid for, but you do realize, it's like literal guide to save.
• 1:32:37
  You, hundreds on how to get your game past four years.
• 1:32:44
  One step one step at a time, one step at a time.
• 1:32:49
  All right. What else are we up to?
• 1:32:50
  What else to do. So let's keep it quiet with
• 1:32:52
  drummer. William.
• 1:32:53
  I just sort of like let that Spotify thing laps.
• 1:32:55
  Let's see if that raises its ugly head, only has hasn't
• 1:32:58
  raised its ugly head at all. No notification was no vacation,
• 1:33:03
  I think. Yes.
• 1:33:04
  But in the real world scenario, I think if we shout something
• 1:33:08
  get elects or it's a I think it plays it through Apple music.
• 1:33:13
  I don't know. Yeah, I'm sure I'll be paying
• 1:33:15
  for that. Someone else is that because
• 1:33:17
  you're paying for both of us. God, you can well not anymore.
• 1:33:21
  Well, graphical music, diese signal title and then I'm not
• 1:33:25
  gonna scrap Spotify. It seems like Overkill.
• 1:33:27
  Yeah, I've even decided to pay for Napster to commit a direct
• 1:33:34
  debit on the patreon. So what else that's it?
• 1:33:39
  Do you remember that? I was paying and I think Dave
• 1:33:41
  you a quirinus would there with me and Neil actually but obvious
• 1:33:44
  365. You can't buy as a physical
• 1:33:46
  product any meal now. So this is the Subscription
• 1:33:49
  anything. And I canceled it about three
• 1:33:51
  months ago and everything still works.
• 1:33:55
  I like it tells me that shit ain't sinkin.
• 1:33:58
  I'm thinking about never mind. Okay.
• 1:34:02
  Okay then but my like my one Excel document that I care about
• 1:34:07
  it which is where my facts and figures are getting better lives
• 1:34:10
  in a one note that I think is free anyway.
• 1:34:12
  So like yeah. And again if you're not sinking,
• 1:34:14
  not paying for anything is installed, I guess.
• 1:34:17
  I'm all right. LT still there.
• 1:34:19
  Yeah. Guess huh?
• 1:34:23
  Nice. Dirt, weight.
• 1:34:24
  Nice stuff. Yeah, a lot of big things are
• 1:34:26
  happening. I'm moving out at a house in two
• 1:34:29
  weeks. What?
• 1:34:29
  Oh, what a say, what say, what are you going to be allowed to?
• 1:34:32
  Like, put your own things on the wall.
• 1:34:34
  Now almost almost again, I had a massive huge curveball.
• 1:34:39
  So this house we're venting and has been.
• 1:34:40
  So we're here Vine until the end of September and the landlady's
• 1:34:45
  Lush. She's just like look, because
• 1:34:47
  we're selling it. We haven't got all the about
• 1:34:49
  like making things right for the next tenants because like The
• 1:34:53
  new tenants is selling get so all the deposits yours.
• 1:34:56
  All real nice and we've in fact, here we go, so we'll just
• 1:35:00
  dropped on a bungalow. Oh yeah, say what Bungalow?
• 1:35:09
  Okay that's unique. What is any particular reason?
• 1:35:13
  Because beta is he just is our basic, is it basically right
• 1:35:15
  next to a pub? There's two pups.
• 1:35:18
  Oh, is it between two pubs? Well either.
• 1:35:23
  So the question is is that we we agreed on the price and then
• 1:35:29
  within one day we find out that the the stove it need the log
• 1:35:35
  burner in the lounge. It's condemned or it's or it's
• 1:35:40
  chimney is condemned. We're paying an extra 50 Quid
• 1:35:43
  above what they ask for because like a lot of people were the
• 1:35:46
  rental markets gone. Crazy is like a job interview.
• 1:35:49
  We had to go there and show off that we know how It's you rent a
• 1:35:51
  house. I think some of the questions I
• 1:35:53
  asked made him realize that I know how to rent a house because
• 1:35:56
  six of us were there waiting overnight.
• 1:35:58
  It worked like for a mortgage, we're just making sure that
• 1:36:00
  you've got the money and like if you're a first time, buyer,
• 1:36:03
  wonderful. Unlike these guys are thinking
• 1:36:05
  about, like, is this the right person to live in my house?
• 1:36:08
  Oh, my God. Was it like the big tummy, do
• 1:36:10
  squid games in the fucking Bungalow to say, you Susan, who
• 1:36:14
  survived? Who gets to fucking read me.
• 1:36:16
  It could, um, but go back to that, that things we found out
• 1:36:20
  today that my Okay, so that log bird, we can't use it.
• 1:36:23
  Look Lush. It look brand new.
• 1:36:24
  Looking forward to use massive disappointment, that is me and
• 1:36:28
  it's and we've just signed up for as well.
• 1:36:29
  So I think we're going to go back and said, you know what,
• 1:36:32
  we're not giving you that extra 50 Quid.
• 1:36:33
  A month that we offered to give ourselves a bit of a bit of a
• 1:36:38
  leg up and either you the agency, yui because you
• 1:36:44
  advertised it with these things. And it was totally advertised
• 1:36:47
  with bullet points or the landlord does because he was
• 1:36:50
  hiding it open. The last-minute.
• 1:36:52
  Either way, between the two of you take the here we're not
• 1:36:54
  paying that 50 Quid extra that sound fair jur.
• 1:36:57
  It does. Are you actually willing for
• 1:37:00
  them to say? No, well, therein lies.
• 1:37:02
  The problem is, is like, this is like Dave telling me to go and
• 1:37:05
  try and block for 900 Meg, internet sometimes, sometimes
• 1:37:09
  living, and having a house, is more important than having
• 1:37:12
  faster internet. The thing is though, much deject
• 1:37:15
  on this having actually recently moved house, three months ago
• 1:37:19
  and we've got a lot better in our living.
• 1:37:21
  Room, like a multi fuel think all them logs it, during with
• 1:37:26
  the kind of Crisis that's going on at the moment, in terms of
• 1:37:30
  everything cost, a fucking bomb, it's invaluable mate.
• 1:37:34
  I've spend 17 pounds on three bags of logs, they last about
• 1:37:40
  two months month, six weeks and the leak.
• 1:37:43
  You only sit in the living room anyway.
• 1:37:45
  And you use one log, maybe two logs for every every late early
• 1:37:50
  evening throughout the And the is stiflingly hot too hot times,
• 1:37:54
  so I think go on both sides of the Harem.
• 1:37:58
  So I think that if you can negotiate that they actually if
• 1:38:03
  it's decommissioned I don't understand what that what that
• 1:38:06
  entails is in like it's blocked off and it's just a it's just a
• 1:38:09
  fucking ornament by the sounds of it then then that's bollocks
• 1:38:14
  if they can fix it and they can really you know kind of get make
• 1:38:17
  it working again. Any repercussions you can pull
• 1:38:20
  back from gas bills, electricity bills for heating.
• 1:38:23
  I think I'm living proof that a log burning in your living room
• 1:38:28
  is amazing. So that's, I think, your tactic
• 1:38:31
  matters to go in. So, I like Neil said, if they
• 1:38:35
  fix, it is going to save your nose on your fuel.
• 1:38:36
  So you say, well look, I've I've given you that action. 50
• 1:38:39
  thinkers get a log burner, and I need that 50 kilometers or I
• 1:38:42
  need a function log burner. So, how about you say, you'll
• 1:38:45
  fix the log burner. I hold back on the 50 and Till
• 1:38:48
  it's fixed. Yeah, because I was expand see,
• 1:38:52
  that's a more of an you might, if they don't fix it, you hold
• 1:38:55
  it back on the 50 forever. What if you like, we're having
• 1:38:58
  this conversation before we sign anything on the dotted line?
• 1:39:00
  So originally it was like, well, maybe we could turn it into a an
• 1:39:03
  open fire in time for Christmas. I like, but net, the last thing
• 1:39:07
  the last update was no, we're not doing that but I'll put a
• 1:39:10
  gas-electric wondering if you want to screw that like that
• 1:39:13
  they cost a fortune to vote. If you've been already in talks,
• 1:39:15
  I think it needs to go either drop the extra 50 because we pay
• 1:39:17
  in that because We be able to save it amount on or you use it
• 1:39:20
  as an actual fuel. Fire yourself, that's closed
• 1:39:23
  off. That's an actual log bonehead
• 1:39:24
  that generates on little amount of fuel, a lot of heat.
• 1:39:28
  This is an unexpected Avenue. We have taken, can't come in off
• 1:39:36
  the street and bring them a few quid to nip up.
• 1:39:38
  The chimney cleaned out these days The old old on the roof
• 1:39:48
  dancing to get in line with the step in time.
• 1:39:56
  So the big takeaway from that is that like we were kind of
• 1:40:01
  getting it with balls is saying and I well but maybe we won't
• 1:40:03
  stay them. Like, well we need that like the
• 1:40:06
  uncertainty of having to leave here at a certain time and not
• 1:40:09
  having a place and again seen at the vents are Market is like,
• 1:40:12
  you're, you're competing like we sent like the white Smart enough
• 1:40:16
  to send them an email from her work address which no work
• 1:40:20
  email. Address shows a little bit of
• 1:40:21
  coolness and a bit alike. I'm awesome because I work here
• 1:40:24
  and let them see the link to the property.
• 1:40:28
  We're living in now, to be like, look, this is like we've
• 1:40:31
  maintained this for three years. Like, we're not, we're not,
• 1:40:34
  we're not deckard's so idly my to eat it matter.
• 1:40:37
  Eat it. I don't agree to facts and
• 1:40:40
  figures, Matt, and it's probably not something for my podcast
• 1:40:42
  about video games, but if you vote with every thought, About
• 1:40:46
  getting a mortgage. Oh, yeah.
• 1:40:49
  That's that's also has been an option for time, too.
• 1:40:52
  Many options Neal. Yeah.
• 1:40:54
  Okay. Fine.
• 1:40:54
  We'll take that offline, mate. We'll have a conversation
• 1:40:57
  offline. All right, let me talk about a
• 1:40:59
  video. Go thing that Americans really
• 1:41:00
  going to win. Dave up, you ready, skies?
• 1:41:04
  I you are you mentioned something kin in the chat a
• 1:41:07
  while ago? I think it was noticing that you
• 1:41:10
  weren't adding the premium subscription.
• 1:41:14
  Maybe to a free-to-play game that because like if you get a
• 1:41:17
  free to play game and it And he becomes part of your life and
• 1:41:20
  part of your routine. You're right, dropping him a
• 1:41:23
  five weapon again and you'll get the extra rewards and everyone's
• 1:41:27
  a winner. I remember seeing that and
• 1:41:29
  thinking ha, ha, ha, I'm still doing that.
• 1:41:32
  Which is Royal for me. Yeah, that's that's that's
• 1:41:38
  deeply. Could my time down on that?
• 1:41:45
  What is it? Might well be playing Matthew.
• 1:41:47
  Well obviously they're not very imaginative for the names.
• 1:41:50
  Minds whoosh, what y'all I'm going to look at the threshold
• 1:41:55
  on camera. I mean, look, I've been playing
• 1:42:01
  it for the past year and a half the last year and a half.
• 1:42:04
  I've been playing this game and I don't always buy like that
• 1:42:07
  added subscription. Every now, and again, over the
• 1:42:10
  18 months, I've been playing it. I probably dropped 40, 50 pounds
• 1:42:15
  on it every now and again, and I only do it when I know that, I'm
• 1:42:20
  Like I'm playing a lot so I know that I'm going to like my my
• 1:42:24
  additional reward for being a premium person for that.
• 1:42:27
  Month will be bolstered. Is it that whole matter?
• 1:42:30
  Sorry that's one day. Go get it Tower Defense, you'll
• 1:42:34
  love it. He's got enough games to play.
• 1:42:39
  Okay yeah it is a really good game.
• 1:42:41
  It's a really good mobile tower defense game.
• 1:42:44
  I know that there have been. I remember playing as I remember
• 1:42:48
  buying on a Nokia store. And downloading on a Nokia phone
• 1:42:52
  before touchscreens a Sonic the Hedgehog emulation and I was
• 1:42:58
  happy as shit to have play that my phone for the two minutes
• 1:43:01
  until they finished 1-1. And I that I've now played Sonic
• 1:43:05
  on the go. What more do I want in the
• 1:43:06
  world? But like I put a lot of time
• 1:43:10
  into this game. So I'm actually kind of all like
• 1:43:12
  that. There's that idea of like
• 1:43:14
  pay-to-win and is the concept of whales like people who Throw a
• 1:43:19
  lot of money in there because I've got more money than sense.
• 1:43:21
  Not like this guy. But people at the lottery
• 1:43:23
  winner, maybe you're just a But I'm, I'm alright, with where I
• 1:43:28
  am with that. I think like 50 Quid a year, are
• 1:43:33
  the game that I play every single day and I would work for
• 1:43:36
  me. But these people that play like
• 1:43:39
  doubters and mobas and stuff like that, that do more loads of
• 1:43:44
  people just saw his skin. So whatever, you know, if you
• 1:43:47
  like it. See, I've never had a problem
• 1:43:49
  with this because I started playing things like EverQuest
• 1:43:52
  MMOs. And there was a monthly fee.
• 1:43:54
  So I've been used You know, doing this for, I'll turn around
• 1:43:58
  25 years or whatever since subscriptions have been around,
• 1:44:02
  it's never really bothered me, the amount, you know, micro
• 1:44:07
  transactions that are optional and don't Aid in the game in any
• 1:44:10
  way. Fine, go for it.
• 1:44:13
  It's your own choice. So you've been bugging about 40,
• 1:44:18
  40 quid a year to this Rush Royale.
• 1:44:22
  Similar that. Yeah, some of that and I'm happy
• 1:44:24
  with her real happy with it. I know that we've got some stuff
• 1:44:29
  coming to see if he's very soon. At all.
• 1:44:31
  Looks pretty cool. We were watching that I forget
• 1:44:35
  which conference it was, but it was cool watching a day by
• 1:44:37
  always bless you for setting them up.
• 1:44:39
  But what's that one, that Neil really likes and was kind of
• 1:44:42
  losing his mind over when they were, like, you can fly a ship.
• 1:44:48
  Oh, I forgot. There was an awful lot of things
• 1:44:54
  in that conference we were losing our minds over.
• 1:44:57
  It. So, it was a star.
• 1:44:59
  Feel, a star star field. Yes.
• 1:45:02
  Yeah. You know why?
• 1:45:02
  Yeah, I did, I did lose my shit on that looked for somebody like
• 1:45:06
  me that likes Bethesda games, that was basically just juice.
• 1:45:11
  It was he was amazing. I got quite a lot of backlash
• 1:45:14
  back a little backlash, didn't it?
• 1:45:16
  There's people just saying it's doesn't look yeah because that
• 1:45:20
  because people like to hate. Yeah exactly.
• 1:45:23
  Just ignore it. Then if you don't go away,
• 1:45:28
  Exactly. Get a different hobby, you
• 1:45:30
  Pricks. But and yeah, they're at that
• 1:45:34
  was something that I was concerned about when I was
• 1:45:36
  actually using my joke on eldering WinStar films coming
• 1:45:40
  out. So I knew I had a lot kind of
• 1:45:43
  riding behind it really good but it was going to coming out all
• 1:45:47
  that can think. But yeah, I've been investing
• 1:45:50
  heavily in that. The last thing I want to say
• 1:45:53
  about my by Gaming, is touching an elder ring as well.
• 1:45:56
  It was my job. Joker as well.
• 1:45:58
  And I did that thing. I think I do a lot with with,
• 1:46:03
  with the souls Bond games, is that I ain't I spend more time
• 1:46:08
  watching videos of tutorials. And here's the best is a great
• 1:46:13
  bill for new game + than actually playing it sometimes.
• 1:46:19
  And I did a big dive to realize why it is that I can't activate
• 1:46:24
  my first proper buff which had controlled by those things.
• 1:46:28
  I've got loads of them. I can't open that damn gate when
• 1:46:31
  I go over. I can kill the damn Giants.
• 1:46:33
  I can kill all three of them down Giants.
• 1:46:36
  That is always a bus route when you have to run across the
• 1:46:39
  bridge and yeah but it's the fact that I still haven't kit.
• 1:46:43
  I thought I'd killed all of the bosses that I needed to I bumped
• 1:46:47
  into bosses and killed an that are probably even stronger than
• 1:46:49
  the one that I've not found yet but it's the dude with they
• 1:46:53
  could Dragon hand, I remember seeing him once but it turns out
• 1:46:57
  he's the one that I need to kill in order to actually progress
• 1:47:01
  the game properly and had him and hearing you guys talking by
• 1:47:05
  laying all. All the pins in the map,
• 1:47:08
  everything hearing you, last time, we recorded talk about
• 1:47:11
  that. Maybe think that General, I've
• 1:47:13
  kind of missed a trick in. I feel like I'm lost.
• 1:47:15
  Yeah, yeah, I'd rather watch other people, just use what
• 1:47:19
  you've done. My is what I was starting to do
• 1:47:21
  and as well as is that it's one of those games that you want to
• 1:47:25
  play it, right? You don't want to miss you want,
• 1:47:27
  you don't want to miss out. You want to play?
• 1:47:29
  Why you want to play it smart but actually playing it smartly
• 1:47:32
  is actually just playing your own way.
• 1:47:35
  So I We starting to watch videos about the best way to cure all
• 1:47:39
  the secrets in, blah, blah, blah.
• 1:47:40
  And I've never been. I'm just not, I'm not, I'm not
• 1:47:44
  good enough to be like this kind of build this kind of build, I'm
• 1:47:47
  just not smart enough to feel that kind of stuff.
• 1:47:50
  I think it just ignore it. Matthew and just basically go
• 1:47:53
  back, go back again, play a bit more of them, at the area that
• 1:47:58
  you just come from, really kind of feel that you're overpowered
• 1:48:01
  in that, and then give that guy go again.
• 1:48:03
  If he's the person that I think that you referring to see more
• 1:48:06
  More got there is. Yeah, I think there's a way of
• 1:48:12
  choosing it if you want to know and I'll tell you on the chat
• 1:48:15
  thread, all right? Yeah.
• 1:48:18
  This is a way that because I think I got two more just like
• 1:48:22
  And I look and there's a way, there's a there's a wave takes
• 1:48:26
  about 20 minutes to prep for but yeah, you can you can go in
• 1:48:29
  there and you can basically just avoid it.
• 1:48:31
  Sorry, is it that you're lost? And don't know where to go or
• 1:48:34
  you just stuck on this boss? I don't know where to go, that's
• 1:48:39
  thing. I remember finding that boss
• 1:48:40
  once, and there was until then watch the video realize that's
• 1:48:43
  why I can't unlock the next huge thing but I forgot where northey
• 1:48:46
  was. Yeah.
• 1:48:47
  Okay. Got you, listen, stump is
• 1:48:49
  installed most of the time, you know.
• 1:48:51
  The, the bonfires they got like a flame.
• 1:48:54
  Going off them basically go that way.
• 1:48:57
  Follow with. Yes.
• 1:49:00
  David had put 60. Sorry I'm absolutely be the way,
• 1:49:05
  the way I. Maybe I'll come back to that.
• 1:49:07
  One day, maybe in my new house, I'll find a new a new position
• 1:49:11
  to play that because in you might wonder why I never did in
• 1:49:14
  this house. As I never kind of portray.
• 1:49:17
  I spend so much time in the office of becomes.
• 1:49:19
  My goats you placed, let my Xbox is plugged into this screen here
• 1:49:22
  but my work is plugged into this screen here and it's the same
• 1:49:26
  chair that I sit on every single day.
• 1:49:28
  So in the new move, I'm going to be a little bit selfish about
• 1:49:31
  like, well, what do I want from a living?
• 1:49:34
  But I want my Xbox to be here. I want to be able to like Xbox
• 1:49:38
  in the morning and evening and I'll just so I'm looking to
• 1:49:42
  maybe that would be something I can go bad.
• 1:49:44
  So I don't think I'd ever re-roll.
• 1:49:46
  But I did that once I don't need to but like, get back in there
• 1:49:49
  with a fresh mind sets go for it, explore 60 hours is 225
• 1:49:54
  dark, don't restart because you collect all the crap that you
• 1:49:58
  have accumulated, you know, even just that supplies.
• 1:50:02
  The thing is, I know that game that I've got a lot of stuff in
• 1:50:05
  my inventory that I have no idea.
• 1:50:07
  Is what it does and I'm just going to keep on collecting it
• 1:50:11
  and I'll end up finishing it. And showing Dave, I'm even trees
• 1:50:15
  like, Jesus Christ, like, you know, like, half the things you
• 1:50:19
  can collect, you not use it anywhere on charted that
• 1:50:22
  together don't work tonight. I've planned this and profit and
• 1:50:25
  so, like, with the clerical type spells you can do a lot of the
• 1:50:29
  things like cure poisons and things like that.
• 1:50:32
  So you don't really need to use although many consumable so I
• 1:50:36
  just I didn't use them. You know like you collect all
• 1:50:38
  the books off the traders to give you crafting recipes.
• 1:50:42
  Yeah got all them. Never use them.
• 1:50:46
  So I'm just carrying this gigantic Santa sack of inventory
• 1:50:50
  round with my yeah. Exactly.
• 1:50:53
  Anything I craft is just poison dart.
• 1:50:55
  Yeah. Because they work anywho thank
• 1:50:59
  you for that Matthews at all. Have you been playing them mate?
• 1:51:01
  That's all own playing. And as things happen I'm going
• 1:51:04
  to hand hosting duties out to let me.
• 1:51:07
  Dance of the visual board. I'm throwing it to Joe I'll be
• 1:51:13
  honest. August is my month for doing
• 1:51:16
  those didn't? Well, he's on his holidays.
• 1:51:19
  It's only zombie Bob's. No Iris.
• 1:51:21
  Cessation is this month? Yeah.
• 1:51:26
  Okay, I'll take over for a little bit then.
• 1:51:28
  So should we jump into another Facebook question really
• 1:51:30
  quickly? And then we'll do a quick round.
• 1:51:33
  The room, kind of what's a planned for next month, like
• 1:51:36
  really quickly be recording for. Little while now.
• 1:51:38
  So my big in I was neat. Yeah, so Okay.
• 1:51:40
  So we've got another, we've got a question here from Mark
• 1:51:42
  Palmer. It says in this insane heat
• 1:51:44
  which is due this week. How are you gonna get?
• 1:51:47
  How are you guys going to cope with it?
• 1:51:49
  What's your top tips for certificates?
• 1:51:51
  For staying cool while gaming, that's a good question because
• 1:51:55
  my office I gained from is Tiny and if it gets in boiling in
• 1:52:00
  here, so I'd like, I'd like to know your answers on this as
• 1:52:04
  well. Okay.
• 1:52:04
  So Dave, what do you do? What do you is it any particular
• 1:52:08
  top test for the fox? Sippy cup filled with loads of
• 1:52:16
  water. Although it's stupid.
• 1:52:17
  But drink loads of water playing your pants.
• 1:52:20
  Get a fan. All right.
• 1:52:23
  All right. Is it be 40?
• 1:52:25
  But I see front page of the news website.
• 1:52:27
  Is like, it's gonna be a hot people.
• 1:52:29
  You'll die if you're entering loads of water and I mean, it
• 1:52:32
  probably was thinking do we need to tell them?
• 1:52:35
  No. This is something that should
• 1:52:37
  just not tell them, especially the sun should say water is some
• 1:52:44
  sort of Lefty conceptually during the war and you support
• 1:52:47
  in labor, Jeremy corbyn, drinks water.
• 1:52:52
  Actually a great if you're a true Brits shun water.
• 1:52:56
  Yeah, I sure inhales to know that it would say on the sun.
• 1:53:00
  Yeah. Hey, did you get water done?
• 1:53:03
  I always remember it. Like, it was There's member a
• 1:53:06
  comedy clip from somebody who's just like, you know what we
• 1:53:09
  should do is remove the warning bottles from the like detergent
• 1:53:13
  and domestic Austin stuff like that kind of thing.
• 1:53:15
  Always like, don't drink it. It's like, well, if the stupid
• 1:53:18
  enough to drink it then they deserve to drink it.
• 1:53:20
  There's one of them says enough in the sea.
• 1:53:22
  Right? This is a big run, there's one
• 1:53:25
  of those that was right. Losers of activity tangent here
• 1:53:29
  guys. Yeah the lady who sued
• 1:53:32
  McDonald's for getting a with hot coffee.
• 1:53:34
  She's a hero and the seat. The story of her.
• 1:53:36
  She's a genuine hero who's like properly smeared by McDonald's
• 1:53:41
  issue some busybody? What happened was?
• 1:53:43
  They said the ridiculously hot, dangerously hot coffee.
• 1:53:46
  I just spilled all over yourself and that's a good hospital for
• 1:53:48
  burns. McDonald's refused to pay.
• 1:53:50
  That's why it has danger. Hot coffee on the coffee things
• 1:53:54
  because McDonald's were absolutely horrible and Yeah,
• 1:53:58
  they were serving the coffee a temperature that's like illegal.
• 1:54:03
  Chris Masters and the woman they've absolutely smear
• 1:54:06
  campaign Buddha life basically. And who's in America she had to
• 1:54:09
  pay her hospital bill. So she took them to court for
• 1:54:11
  like to pay the hospital bills that the coffee of course, and
• 1:54:14
  they were like, she wants us to give her loads of money because
• 1:54:16
  she couldn't control coffee. That's a tangent.
• 1:54:20
  I'm stopping there. Yeah.
• 1:54:21
  Okay. That's fine.
• 1:54:22
  Okay, I'm looking at. So, very quickly.
• 1:54:26
  Keeping cool. I think the Bailey's just drink,
• 1:54:29
  ice water, isn't it? I think and somebody once told
• 1:54:33
  me a year ago, that the best invention is the best GTA ever.
• 1:54:37
  Bought was an ice maker because you can see obviously use it for
• 1:54:41
  like cocktails stuff like that but it's invaluable during
• 1:54:44
  summer months making ice constantly putting in all your
• 1:54:46
  drinks and stuff like that. The best way to keep cool is to
• 1:54:49
  drink cold things. Okay?
• 1:54:51
  So I'm going to mix this up a little bit because we are
• 1:54:54
  recording for a little while now and I wanted to see if we I'll
• 1:54:56
  bring this to a little bit of a close so I'm going to what I'm
• 1:54:59
  going to do is because it's quite a big Topic in the next
• 1:55:03
  question. So what I'm going to do is I'm
• 1:55:05
  going to do domestics, I think I'm going to run through that if
• 1:55:09
  I can potentially read without my glasses on.
• 1:55:12
  So please bear with me. Usually we get a somebody that's
• 1:55:16
  centered when there are going to blah blah, blah episodes to be
• 1:55:19
  the domestics for us. But unfortunately, due to
• 1:55:23
  external events, we don't have anybody for this.
• 1:55:26
  So Dan is it gets done before this episode gets edited inside
• 1:55:30
  out which is very, very powerful.
• 1:55:31
  So I'm just going to really quickly just say that.
• 1:55:34
  Obviously, if you listen to this podcast, well done, you found us
• 1:55:39
  tell your friends. How do you ever actually on
• 1:55:42
  Spotify and things like that for you?
• 1:55:44
  If it you shake challenge? Goddamn if you tell two friends
• 1:55:47
  there's do it as this may spread the word tell two, friends bill
• 1:55:52
  then tell them to talk to you. Friends boobs you.
• 1:55:55
  We just you We broadcast the same people are acceptable was
• 1:56:00
  like yeah you know Derek and Jeff the board.
• 1:56:07
  Now they need more people listening with them and we've
• 1:56:10
  obviously we also put this out on YouTube as well, but without
• 1:56:13
  the, we don't play with you and with the audio on we're doing,
• 1:56:16
  but it's over the visuals with their actual faces on which is a
• 1:56:19
  bit weird when I when I when I catch it on YouTube but there
• 1:56:22
  you go. You probably just don't want us
• 1:56:23
  looking bored or getting. See a drunken eyes, get even
• 1:56:26
  more Hazy as the recording goes on.
• 1:56:28
  But yes, fat look for is on YouTube as well under the years.
• 1:56:31
  Shame challenge, obviously there's a Facebook group as well
• 1:56:34
  where you can interact with any kind of streaming any post any
• 1:56:38
  updates, any kind of questions and points of view that we post
• 1:56:41
  on there and that is unjust. Look, it took a lot for you and
• 1:56:45
  shaming in Facebook group. If you want to email us with any
• 1:56:48
  particular questions comments or anything like that, you can
• 1:56:51
  contact us with your regime at Gmail and Twitter is at year of
• 1:56:55
  Shame. There is a Discord Channel as
• 1:56:58
  well, that we highly recommend that you get involved in.
• 1:57:01
  It's not solely centered at you're ashamed, because why
• 1:57:05
  would it be? There's actually a really good.
• 1:57:08
  I really like it is a really good Discord set up for midlife
• 1:57:12
  gamer. I'm not going to read out that
• 1:57:14
  link because it's just, it's a link.
• 1:57:17
  It's got like like small characters, big characters in
• 1:57:19
  Dave, what? I don't know why you've put that
• 1:57:20
  in there like that, but it basically search for midlife
• 1:57:24
  gamer on Discord and you'll find us and be in There there's a
• 1:57:27
  straight. We're try and get tiny URL set
• 1:57:29
  up for your nails. Well, thank you very much.
• 1:57:30
  Yeah, that'd be, that'd be great.
• 1:57:32
  So there's a domestics. Come and find US get involved,
• 1:57:35
  tell you mates. And if they say no poke him in
• 1:57:38
  the eye, take that mother right Nielsen?
• 1:57:46
  It's okay. Yeah.
• 1:57:48
  Give him a Chinese burn. Is that politically correct?
• 1:57:50
  Give him a burn on the ROM with the running Ruby and my dad used
• 1:57:54
  to give massive Chinese Birds. Anyway, that's a complete
• 1:57:58
  different podcast is one. I would subscribe to injury.
• 1:58:03
  Thanks Dad, the Ainsley harriott sized.
• 1:58:10
  A successful podcast of my, my dad gave me a rubber mat around
• 1:58:17
  my neck. Okay, so the last question we've
• 1:58:20
  been submitted and I want to try and keep this brief if possible
• 1:58:22
  and I'm actually I think we've got a little bit of an expert in
• 1:58:25
  the room on this particular Subject matter, it's definitely
• 1:58:27
  not me. Another question submitted by
• 1:58:30
  Mike Palmer is do you think collecting Microsoft points is
• 1:58:34
  breaking? The rules of your ashame?
• 1:58:36
  ER, yeah, we shame. Sorry.
• 1:58:38
  I can't think it of the reason to be honest.
• 1:58:40
  I just want to say, also, something you.
• 1:58:42
  Something might have to take over this.
• 1:58:43
  My glasses are not in the room. I just want to say that, you
• 1:58:46
  will say yes. So I don't actually have to beat
• 1:58:49
  Dave saffold and collecting all are collecting them each month.
• 1:58:53
  Because if is what I can't get, what does that mean?
• 1:58:56
  It's the only is the cut that is, that is the color of the
• 1:58:59
  text is just, I know. And is that, and there's no
• 1:59:02
  commas or like punctuation. That's because he's been typed
• 1:59:05
  on variously like me. Okay, so what's he saying, Dave?
• 1:59:12
  Right. Do you think that collecting the
• 1:59:18
  Microsoft points is breaking the rules?
• 1:59:21
  Well, it's not because no I'm not playing anything
• 1:59:27
  specifically. You know, there are game past
• 1:59:29
  quests and things where it says you know go and play NLB the
• 1:59:33
  show baseball, do this and you get X point.
• 1:59:37
  So I'm not doing any of those all I'm doing these searches and
• 1:59:42
  doing the the questions on, you know, the being app.
• 1:59:47
  And then, you know, some game past games.
• 1:59:49
  I do play or fire up like golf with friends, you know,
• 1:59:52
  community, and what he's saying that, he's because the second
• 1:59:56
  part is saying I just want you to say yes.
• 1:59:59
  So, I can beat Dave at something collecting them at each month,
• 2:00:02
  because it was the only thing I had left in my life.
• 2:00:05
  He wasn't beating the after. Now, he is ha ha ha.
• 2:00:09
  That's good, right? This is God's love is truth,
• 2:00:12
  right? He always thinks he's gonna beat
• 2:00:16
  me on. On game, the score points every
• 2:00:19
  month. So I get a little one and I keep
• 2:00:21
  it in my pocket until the last couple of days.
• 2:00:24
  And then Bang, there isn't pointing right at the end.
• 2:00:28
  They seem awfully look at the end of the kidney blows.
• 2:00:34
  And then, a knockout punch. Yeah.
• 2:00:37
  No, iits not, it's not against the rules because it's free.
• 2:00:40
  It's just a mechanism. There's a bigger question
• 2:00:43
  because I know Max, I asked Italy, wonder about, you know
• 2:00:46
  what? They sold out.
• 2:00:47
  What is it and things? Eyelashes, we could talk for
• 2:00:50
  hours but give a very brief and conserve you day.
• 2:00:53
  So basically you work really cute.
• 2:00:56
  Look a crew of these points daily by doing various things
• 2:01:00
  and then you can cash them in for literal free money from
• 2:01:04
  Microsoft. So you can build up these
• 2:01:08
  points. Just literally by doing searches
• 2:01:10
  every day. I mean, I've got a script that
• 2:01:12
  just runs it so I'm not even doing anything.
• 2:01:14
  I'm literally pressing go. in the morning, and You can then
• 2:01:21
  try to be my boy like you game past.
• 2:01:23
  I've got enough to for a two-run game pass for a year now, but
• 2:01:27
  what I'm actually doing with it is I'm saving them up till
• 2:01:29
  January and then I'll be buying Borderlands tiny to this
• 2:01:33
  Wonderland for farkle. So that's what I'm doing.
• 2:01:39
  Yeah, it's okay. I'm into it.
• 2:01:44
  I guess the big question is, is sort of like, what I was gonna
• 2:01:47
  say, why did you do it? Because if you getting money out
• 2:01:49
  of it, cause originally, I thought Just like that.
• 2:01:51
  So timid that you could set that service at where you link a
• 2:01:54
  website with your Gamertag and it would blog, he would blog on
• 2:01:57
  behalf of your Gamertag with is. Okay.
• 2:02:00
  I was on Wednesday and I was playing this game.
• 2:02:02
  They're playing that game and Diamond, it Darrin even had me,
• 2:02:05
  go round his house every single day when I was on holiday, just
• 2:02:08
  to boot a game up, to keep his strong cards under days, and
• 2:02:14
  this is what this is what I thought this was.
• 2:02:16
  If it's free money. What is it?
• 2:02:19
  What is it? Just You're talking about like
• 2:02:21
  an engine. All the mic is it just for
• 2:02:22
  Microsoft to keep people in their living area?
• 2:02:24
  Yes, it's basically. Yeah, exactly.
• 2:02:27
  Exactly that. So you've got, like, mini
• 2:02:29
  quizzes that you take part in every day and every single quiz
• 2:02:31
  answer that you click on. So if you says like, you know,
• 2:02:33
  name 35 films by particularly director of 10, it'll take you
• 2:02:41
  to the search page of every single movie that you click on
• 2:02:44
  in answering that. So it's more hits on that page,
• 2:02:47
  so Edge, Edge, Bing. Search is getting more users.
• 2:02:52
  So they've got more kind of, you know, gravitas behind them for,

  Oh, so many people clicked on blah blah blah.
• 2:03:02
  You mean that kind of thing. But you do get the point.
• 2:03:04
  I have used it in the past and I have bought like a I think I got
• 2:03:09
  like a 30 quid voucher for Xbox that I bought.
• 2:03:13
  And I actually put it towards a game like a year or two ago,
• 2:03:15
  kind of thing. So it's got its got these
• 2:03:17
  values. But the thing is you to get the
• 2:03:20
  The maximum value out of it because it is about that chain.
• 2:03:22
  Matthew to a certain extent, you do have to do it every day.
• 2:03:25
  You don't know, you don't have to, but to get the most out of
• 2:03:28
  it, you and get the kind of like the linking of more points
• 2:03:31
  because you've done it 10 days in a row, or is it a combo and
• 2:03:35

  Yeah, but like I said, Money matters because it's free money
• 2:03:54
  at the end of the day. The thing is though, Matt is
• 2:03:57
  it's not some people play it. Like it's a video game that's
• 2:04:00
  what well I do it anymore. Do I get up?
• 2:04:04

• 2:04:16
  various people are always on this or I was talking about that

• 2:04:22
  minutes a day morning routine done.
• 2:04:26
  Yeah, basically got the time and effort, which I don't think
• 2:04:29

• 2:04:37
