• 1:14
  Speaker 1: The best way to start, man, yetta start silly.
• 1:17
  Speaker 4: Just absolutely nonsensical. Just and it's starting with a reference
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: from like a decade ago and change maybe longer. Jesus
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: has been a bit like fifteen, seventeen, twenty years anyway.
• 1:37

• 1:48

• 1:51
  Speaker 4: just start by introducing our usual suspects. He's a gamer
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: and a storyteller, and he used to be my youngest friend.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: Now he's just awesome. It's age and applause.
• 2:19

• 2:29
  Speaker 3: one else, man, We're all we're all doing good.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: We're all feeling good. So my question, I always do
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: a question to introduce people, even when it's just three
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: of us. So, Aggie, uh, is there something that you
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: use to get yourself out of a funk? So you're
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: in a low mood?
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: So yeah, Actually, I mean there's a couple of things, Okay, Navally,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: video games is like number one on that list, because
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: video games are awesome and they can kind of take
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: you out of a shitty world and put you in
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: a different shitty world, but a.
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: Shitty world in which you have power to Yeah, would
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: you have power to actually control?
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: But one of the things that I haven't done it
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: in a while that really helps me get out of
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: funk is Dungeons and Dragons. It's always been a near
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: and dear game to my heart since I first was introduced.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: It came to me in a time of my life
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: where nothing but stress, just very hardship after hardship after hardship,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: and yeah, and playing D and D is just it's
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: a lot of fun and one of my favorite things
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: is making new characters, coming up with new ideas of
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: different characters you can make. It. Being so close to
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: my birthday a little retrospective, I'm like, okay with D
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: and D on the mind says, you know, another year,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: another stress, but also wanting to come up with something fun.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, what if I made myself a D
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: and D character like as in me? And what kind
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: of stuf that's I would have? So I kind of
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: pieced together something and let me let me know what
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: you think. So obviously character named Augie because it's everybody
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: calls me. It's not my actual name, it's just my
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: nickname that everybody calls.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: My class is poor.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: I beg the d M. I prayed to the DM
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: all the time to let me change it. I don't
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: think they like me very much. So my uh, my
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: race is human with our question mark.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: Why the question mark?
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Because you never know.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, there could be some Sasquatch blood in there.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: That's what I've been told. Who knows, right? Uh, My
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: background is Italian.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: You should see if you can dual race, because honestly,
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: there might be some racial benefits to being a sasques
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: a half Sasquatch. What would that be like.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Half Cutch, half cut, half Cutch.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: My background is my background is Italian American, which gives
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: me proficiency with talking fast with my hands and eating
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: a lot of spaghetti. Yes, my alignment is neutral. Good
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: because I'm a bitch.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: No, no, no, I would argue highly again, not a bit.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I'm level thirty two, but I'm three days away from digging.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: To level thirty three.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: My strength is average. My dexterity goes down every year.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: My constitution is a dice roll. My intelligence is questionable,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: but my wisdom does go up every year, so that's
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: a plus. Yes, but my cou roisma is outstanding.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: I would agree with that.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, my initiative is maybe tomorrow. My hit points are
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: sixty nine, but there are temporary.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: I've got skill prefer usually is.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Usually for so long.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: My skills are animal handling, nature and procrastination, and I'm
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: prefer in English, three words of French and giving Aaron
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: non answers to his questions.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, this is the exact opposite of that. You
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: gave me the answer and then.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: So that's true. I've been working on.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Well, thank you for that. That was very very funny. Yeah,
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: that's awesome, great answer, Stevie, best of luck. You got
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: a step to that. He's a veteran and the podcaster
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: and as it turns out, he's a veteran podcaster. It's
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: Stevie's Steve.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I was not this either, but I was not expecting
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: you to come in swinging before the first pitch was
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: even thrown.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: So Jesus so fucking strong, bestil I don't get drunk
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: at National anthem singings.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Same question. I feel like you're not the kind of
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: person who often finds themselves in a funk, but when
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: you do? Sorry, did I just completely read you wrong?
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: I was a terrible friend for you. Suffer with constant.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: For the twenty minutes prior to this, I was laying
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: on the ground outside and like like a ship movie. Actually, yeah,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: playing out there for like an hour on the ground outside.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: So that I guess that may answer my question. When
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: do you do when you're in that kind of funk?
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: And how do you get yourself out of it?
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Lately? No joke, it's been going for a walk and
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I don't walk well, but I'll I'll leave the apartment.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I'll come down here and just walk around the yard hobble.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah it's more I need balances, But yeah, getting outside,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: especially now because it's actually nice and yeah, it's not
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: a shitty out, you know. So it's like I'm trying
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: to nice and the sun naturally is an upper, like
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: you do get those positive rays. I feel better when
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I do the sun, so it like helps. And if
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: I can't get the other be I need a the
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: vitamin D, you.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Know, but as opposed to erl D, right, yeah.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: The unnatural D. You can't do that. Yeah, no, outside
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: I do. I suffer from depression like hard, I do it,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: but I'm I'm medicated ninety eight percent of my time.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I'm awake, so it's like try to numb it out.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: But yeah, like outside, outside is good. Outside is great.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: But you know what makes me happy my friends and
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: talking to people.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah it is.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: But yeah, no, like I'm already in a better mood.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I mean yeah, once everybody showed up and they started talking, I'm.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: Like, this is just better kind of naturally an upper.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: It is completely an upper. Just just doing this right,
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, it has value even in that. So even
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: if even if we never take off to be the
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: massive success that we are destined to be, let's be clear,
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: just because.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: All those people are wrong who make the decisions.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: Because because the people who don't support us wrong.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: They're not here, they don't hear because to listen to
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: this anyways, nobody ever makes that argument that people who
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: don't support us.
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: Umber once in history also fu y'all.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: Well, I'm glad to hear that, and I will finally
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: introduce myself as the host. I am pantiless.
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: Aaron hit it, He'll check some stoners for a La.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: Mexican you Maxicon, you absolute legend. You I cannot okay, all.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Right, Aaron glorious, Okay.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: All right, there's a point which it becomes too.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Much hold on that button broke.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: So yeah, So I there's a reason I picked this
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: particular question, and then just the past couple of weeks,
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: I have been kind of just kind of sitting in
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: this funk for like too long. Honestly. It started when
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: I started looking for like a house, because I've been
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: living in the same apartment for nine years and couldn't
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: find anything that I could afford that wasn't like about
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: to fall apart any minute, you know, Like the ones
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: I could afford are all like, you know, fixed me up,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: and I'm in no shape to do that, Like I
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: just and I wouldn't know how to do.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: It's a fixer upper for like a carpenter.
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, for an actual carboner, Like I know what you're doing,
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: you know, and I am not that person. I do
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: not have the strength of will to do that. Unlike
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: our friends Andy and Karen from Definant Monkey, who did
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: exactly that. Yeah, they have a they have a huge house,
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: but it needed a lot of work, but they settled
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: in to do it. They've been there for like five
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: six years and it actually, you know, it's actually livable now.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: But it took a lot of effort and a lot
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: of time. And I just I cannot see. I cannot
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: see myself putting in that kind of effort, Like I.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Just going to work all day, coming home to like,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: all right, let's work, let's.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: Start working again. You know. I just I don't think
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: I could do it. I think I just fall apart.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: So with a house out of reach, I was like, oh,
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: you know, it might be fun. My truck's all paid off.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: It's it's not going to last forever. So I started
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: looking at trucks and I looked at those and I
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: was like, man, you know, I I could afford that,
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: but it would put me in my absolute limit, you know,
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: to get the truck that I wanted. I mentioned I
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: went looking at a Ford Maverick. Yeah, and I really
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: liked that truck quite a lot, but it's like still
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: like twenty six twenty seven thousand dollars after the transit
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: from Ford from Ford's factories in Mexico. So yeah, yeah,
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: So I was just like, I was like, man, I
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: just feeling I was feeling very trapped, and I think
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: that just dragged me down a bit into a bad
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: place for a while, and I didn't get a lot done,
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: Like I just kind of shut down. I just kind
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: of was goofing around doing usual stuff on on It
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: was of the Internet and just watching Internet videos and
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: just not like it was just all background shit like
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: you know there, Yeah, it was just it was just
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: there to distract me from my own brain. But eventually
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: I think I just what brought me out of it
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: more than anything. I mean, there was there was the
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: last episode we did of this podcast, which was huge
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: and so much fun, and I laughed hysterically. The think
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: show folks are absolutely wonderful, and I just it just
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: helped me get out of it, and I was like,
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: I don't want to feel like this anymore. And so
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: I started working on and I was like, next time
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: I start, you know, just goofrom putting on background noise
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: in the internet. I'm actually going to start having fun.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: So that's what I did. I started making sure that
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: even if I was by myself, even if I was alone,
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: I was going to do something that was going to
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: be fun.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, you.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: Know, So I started. I started. I started a new
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: project involving my book. Like, so my book is is
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: a thing is a first edition. You know, obviously, it's
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: never had a second edition. It's going to now really
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: because of all the changes we made for the audiobook,
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: all the backers who put their you know, oh yeah
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: back to get their name in the audiobook, they're going
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: to have their name in the real book too. From
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: the second edition onward. Their names are actually going to
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: be in the physical book as well.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Oh that's cool.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: And I've decided that the second edition is going to
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: be like a more of a smaller pocket size. I
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: think it's like five by seven and I don't know
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: the exact measurements, but so five by okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, yeah,
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: that is six by nine. Yeah, okay, So it's going
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: to be a wee bit. It's going to be two
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: inches shorter, uh, and like one inch less wide. That's
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: also so it's going to be smaller, and it will
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: also hopefully be cheaper, like I'm hoping that I can
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: get the price down to like fifteen dollars, like fourteen
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: ninety nine, because the one thing I was upset about
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: was the fact that to make any money off thing
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: at all. My original book, the first edition was twenty
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: five dollars, which is high, right for a for a book,
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: especially for a book that doesn't have like a like
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: a binding, like oh, you're going to say pictures, like
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: like like a hardcover binding. Like if I wanted to
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: put color in there, it would have been even more.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure.
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: And I did want to put color in there, but
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: I couldn't like it just it would have driven the
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: price even higher.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: And I was like, is there with a red pan?
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: I felt very trapped, and I was like, I can't.
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: And I was like, okay, So the the writing program
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: I use that automatically type sets the book for me
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: doesn't type set a pocket sized edition that isn't four
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: hundred pages plus. I was like, holy shit, what are
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: you doing? So I immediately thick. I was like, I
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: just started looking into typesetting myself. So when I'm not
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: working on learning how to typeset by myself, which is
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: an absolutely phenomenal skill which is gonna help me immensely,
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: it means my book will have whatever type font I want, whatever,
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: you know, whatever, like notes in the top and bottom
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: of the page that I want, I can decide how
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: I want to do it. And so I'm learning a
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: new skill effectively. Yeah, and whenever I'm taking time off,
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: I'm making sure to do something other than just sit
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: and watch internet videos. I've been doing a lot of
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: video gaming lately. I've gotten into Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: for the GBA, especially because there's a rom haack for
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: it called Aria of Sorrow Alter, which does one of
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: the few things I wish like Castlevania simply the Night
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: had done, you know, so many other great games in
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: that same genre. I don't. I mean, it's got to
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: be a ton of work, but this guy actually re
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: designed the entire map, so it's actually like a brand
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: new castle that players have never explored before. So if
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: you've played Aria of Sorrow and you liked it, you're
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: gonna like Aria of Sorrow Alter.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Because the same half.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: No, it's not even close. It's very different. It's very different.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: It's it's practically it's got the same story, it's got
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: the same characters, it's got it's got slightly better combat tweaking.
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: I feel there's there's definitely some very hard parts, like
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: the the the death arena is very very difficult. Do
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: not tackle until you're like level fifty or something. It
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: was very hard. I got killed. I tried going like
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: a level thirty five and got absolutely destroyed. So yeah,
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: it's it's tough, and some of those rooms are absolutely evil,
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: especially because you're not allowed to use souls at all,
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: so you're your soul's powers are completely out the window.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: So I've been enjoying that. I've been dabbling back into
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: Degan Rompa because you know, a world in which teenagers
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: murder each other is still considered light entertainments America compared
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: to the world we're currently living in. So yeah, so
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: it's it's it's finding something that I actually enjoy, that
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: is fun, that that helps get me out of it.

• 18:33
  Speaker 4: stories as we Let me tell you story number one.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: South Korean contramand list now includes Trader Joe's Everything Bagels.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Hey when I say everything, maybe every Trader Joe's Everything,
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: but the bagels.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: Seasoning mix is one of America's most popular exports, and
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: we have recently learned that it is now illegal in
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: South Korea.
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: The the blend, which is very popular with influencers and
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: is regularly in recipes on TikTok, contains salt, minced garlic,
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: sesame seeds, and poppy seeds. And that's the poppy seeds.
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: The poppy seeds are the problem. Okay, so yeah, there
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: there's a a a user on Twitter I refuse to
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: call it by that other stupid name, shared a poster
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: from the airport. It had a picture of the seasoning
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: mix and red and Korean. We would like to inform
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: you that the following products containing poppy seeds are restricted
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: from being brought into the country as Papa Vera somniferum L,
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: an ingredient of the poppy family designated as a narcotic
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: substance ye under South Korea's Narcotics Drugs Control law, has
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: been detected. Yes, but in how great in amount? It's
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: gotta be MENI fucking skulls.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Do you know any poppy seeds you have to actually
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: eat for the sh oil on a test let alone
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: to affect your body. It's stupid. Like, yeah, it's just
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: I think I asked edumacation Andy or he said it
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: at one point like back in the day, and I'm like, wow, dude,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: that's crazy. Happened.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: The South Korean black market is full of these bagels.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: They're everywhere.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: They're affecting from the north, setting them to the north.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: It's always got to feed those people.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fair.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: Wow, Yeah, that's it.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's I get that like that.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: I understand why they do it. It's stupid, but I
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: understand why. Yeah.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: People could like repurpose it. I'm assuming if you get
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: the seeds I guess you can get a couple to grow,
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: and because wuldn't it be cheaper to buy the bagel
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: and repurpose the seeds than it is to get there.
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: But you'd have to have so much any Like there
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: should be like a volume check if you have above
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: a certain amount, like maybe you limit it to two
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: canisters of the seasoning. We're not gonna get enough off
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: that to get an ant high.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, like just said it's with salt and other stuff.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: It probably killed that seat anyway.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, did we just hear a story recently about
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: a dude smuggling like two hundred steaks in his pants.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, like the heck. I mean, people, wou you.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: Be so much more grateful to find cans of.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Like crawling on your arm?
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: What's wrong? Your pants are full of.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Bagels and there's a problem with this.
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: Yes, they're not toasted.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: Take it out of the toaster for the love of god.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Itchy, I got this chafing, doc, What are you doing different? Different?
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: When I stop buttering it?
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: Oh God, let's move on to story.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: That can't go on.
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: TikTok story number two. Seven stars that should not be
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: Harold's discovery of a rare black hole instead of a
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: JRPG storyline. Yeah so. An international team of astronomers astronomers
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: have used more than five hundred images from NASA's Hubble
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: Space telescope, spanning over the past two decades, to detect
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: seven fast moving stars in the innermost region of Omega Centauri,
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: the largest and brightest globular cluster in the sky, and
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: these provide new evidence for the presence of an intermediate
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: mass black hole, which are which are a rare site.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: All the black holes we know of are either very
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: very very small or super massive. Yep, nobody's found a
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: medium size black hole until just now, apparently.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Because somebody used it to travel through a wormhole and
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: they left the door open.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'm gonna say, it's like just multiple stars closer together.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: That's just and eventually one.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's not new is Paramount's been doing that forever.
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: So the reason for this discovery is uh. The A
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: gentleman at the Max Plank Institute for Astronomy in Germany
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: who led this investigation said, we just if he discovered
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: seven stars, it should not be out. Yeah, I'm moving
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: so fast that they should escape the cluster and never
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: come back. It's the most likely explanation is that a
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: very massive object is gravitationally pulling on these stars and
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: keeping them close to the CENTA.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: Why does your German accent always make things how more sexual?
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: When I was in Germany, I went to Germany. I
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: was there for two weeks.
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: If you're listening, I'm so sorry.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: All I remembers Amsterdam from Europe. That's it.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Far as you remembered, Amsterdam is.
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: The only objects that can be so massive is a
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: black hole? This this a mass at least eighty two
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: hundred times is that of our sun?
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: Holy shit?
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, Hans, do you know who else can be
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: that big? Your mom?
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Oh no, sick burn snap.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Can remind me of the German group in Pitch Perfect two.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: Definitely not German.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, well you could walk away with those sixty thighs. God,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: why she's so hot? I don't know what those are
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: the lines, but I love that fucking movie.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Oh right, our forgiveness to all German people for your accent.
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: American mock. But I am absolutely one thousand percent stealing
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: the idea of stars being in a place station should
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: not be to start off a role playing storyline.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: That's all right, ready for story number three? Sure, let's
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: do it.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: New York City baywatch drones being torn apart by angry
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: birds who have run out of pigs to attack. Yeah, so,
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: New York City beaches have started using these drones that
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: would fly in and literally bring a struggling swimmer a
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: life saving device like inflatable tube or something anything to
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: help them out while the lifeguard would get there. It's
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: not a replacement for a lifeguard, but it is meant
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: to be something that can get assistance to a swimmer
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: faster than.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: That's cool, it seems.
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: It seems genuinely like a very good idea. However, since
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: the drones began flying in May, flocks of birds have
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: repeatedly sworn the devices, forcing the police department and other
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: city agencies to adjust their flight plans. While the attacks
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: have slowed, they have not stopped completely, fueling concern from
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: wildlife experts about the impact on threatened species nesting along
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: the coast.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: So all you need to really do is attach on
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: those electric fly swatter things to your drone and then
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: when those birds come to hit your fucking drone to
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: get shocked and fly away.
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: I get that this isn't exactly how it's working out
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: over there, but just kind of like as a point
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: out the obvious. Though they're worried about the birds and
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: their natural habitat because of the drones, they seem less
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: worried about the fishing, vessels, ships, people swimming and throwing
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: their garbage in that same water.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Right, Who cares?
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: The drones are harming the birds.
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: No fuck wits you are.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: The birds are just defending themselves, kind of like the
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: orcas attacking the fishing vessels. Right, it's happening. You're fucked up,
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: and now Nature's coming back.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Motherfucker.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: You fucked up Mother Nature's pissed job nobody wanted anyway.
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: That's all three stories. I'll just briefly go over them
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: one more time. A story number one South Korean contrband
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: list now includes Trader Joe's Everything Bagels uh, story number
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: two seven Stars that should not be Harold's discovery of
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: rare black hole instead of jag storyline, And finally, story
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: number three NYC bay Watch drones being torn apart by
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: angry birds who have run out of pigs to attack.
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: Which one of these would I like? Which one would
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: I block? And which one would I share? And I'm
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: going to start with Augie. Augie, I'm gonna give you
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: the first choice for absolutely no reason.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but no reason whatsoever, no reason. So I actually
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: think I think you blocked the the bagel story just because,
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, at the end of the day, it's because Poppy. See,
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: it's there's there's food restrictions across borders everywhere, even getting
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: into Canada. There's ship we can't bring up there, and
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: there's ship we can't bring back down here. So that's
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: not really anything new for us. So I think it's
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: like the least likely liked story in this whole batch.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: That being said, I think you'll liked the seven Stars
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: that should not be just because of the idea that
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: it would be connected in some way to a g
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: r PG idea kind of thing. So I think that's
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: something like now. The one you would share I feel
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: are the birds attacking the drones because it's nature attacking
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: our artificial garbage.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: Fair. Fair, that's good, Stevie. Uh, you can you can
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: keep one of those, but you have to swap the
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: other two, or you can go entirely your own way.
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: What do you want to do?
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: This is difficult because all you took my block right away,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: So I think I'm gonna stick with that, will keep blocking.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: The bagels, blocked.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: The bagels, and I'm gonna have to unfortunately swap the
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: other two because I think argue with all of what
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: I wanted, so I'll actually be liking the birds and
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: sharing the hole.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, of course, of course you are right, son, of
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: a bitch. Well, here's the good news. That is exactly right.
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: That is what I pay. I assume not the same
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: reason I blocked the I blocked the South Koreen contraband
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: everything bagels because I don't like everything bagels, so I
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: don't give a ship genuinely give me a simmon reason
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: at any time. But I'm not a fan of all
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: the weird random ship on top of the bagel. I'm like,
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: get out of here, you're ruining my bagel. Uh the
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: the Bayete Sharones. I liked the story, but I did
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: not share because it feels such like a not my
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: problem kind of thing. I'm like, I know, it's it's
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: it's it is cool to see like mother nature being
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: like fuck you. I appreciate that in all of its
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: various forms.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: It's always incredibly funny to.
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: Be because we we almost always deserve it. As has said,
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: we've been fucking with those birds for so long, in
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: all the various bullshit and awful things that.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: We specifically us throwing rocks at them, like going on.
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: I mean, I mean more specifically rich people with their
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: boats and doing stupid shit g littering, and god knows
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: what else.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: It's not that we don't do anything for it. It
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: just I always feel like when they only mention one
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: thing being like a direct problem or something like that,
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: like how how much of a hypocrite.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Aren'tes aren't actively threatening them, but they think that they
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: are because they're flying to them.
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: It's a fly, not the people enroaching on their actual territory.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: It's the drones.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, anyway, so I just like that one. I did
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: not share it. However, I did share the Seven Stars
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: turning up a rare black hole because I didn't know
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: that there was that. Medium sized black holes were so
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: rare they literally hadn't been found until now.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think we'd.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: Only ever found tiny ones.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: Or massive recent discovery.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: It is a very recent discovery, and it's kind of
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: it's kind of interesting, and the more I dug into it,
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: the more I wanted to learn about it. So not
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: just because I want to do an RPG storyline with
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: stars appearing where they shouldn't be.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: You know, was it it was the web telescope that's
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: up there now it's been.
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: The Hubble telescope. Yeah, I don't know, it might be
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: the James webscope. Yeah.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: Ever since the web telescope put up there. We've been
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: just like, whoa go to seeing so much cool ship
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: out there.
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm certain it helped. But like they said, they
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: scoured the images from the Hubble telescope over the past
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: twenty years.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: There's well and that's what so much data.
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: That's what told going that these stars shouldn't be there
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: because they should be traveling so fast as to escape
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: the gravity of the of the cluster. But something's pulling
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: them back.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: That's crazy.
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: So yeah, anyway, I just thought it was really cool,
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: so I shared that one, which means Stevie wins this game, yeah,
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: and gets one episode point, do you know, fred Augie.
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: Although I know you're not fretting, you're just kind of
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: waiting to get on with it. We will be playing
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: game two when we come back from this break right
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: after this.
• 32:50
  Speaker 7: Hey you there, We've got a question for you. Are

• 34:09
  Speaker 4: Never Stop Blowing Up, featuring video store employees pulled into
• 34:12

• 34:25
  Speaker 4: tabletop role playing setting concept that is both unique and unexpected.
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: You can use an existing role playing system or make
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: up your own and you can give me as much
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: or as little plot as you want. What I'm mostly
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: interested in here is the concept. Best pitch wins and
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: earns two episode points. Now, OGGI, you lost the last game,
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: so you get the choice do you want to go
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: first or do you want to make CV go first?
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: I will go first, all right, just to kind of
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: rip the band aid off, kind of speak fair enough
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: that Aggy pitched me so I was sick at this game.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like a three in one in a way.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: It's a deck building game and a dice rolling game.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: And I'll get to the third part here at a sec.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: But basically, you have to build a meal. Essentially, you
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: start off with like say, a tortilla bowl, and there's
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: ingredients you add point. These ingredients add points, but they
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: ass also add negative modifiers too, and when after a
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: certain amount of terms, every player has to make a roll.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: If they succeed the role, they earn the amount of
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: points to those ingredients they've added to their bowl. But
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: if they fail from the negative modifiers, they'll get a
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: negative points, lose points, or gain some, or gain something
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: negative to them. The third part of this game is
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: that because it's a deck building game, and you can
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: get different ingredients to swatch it out. The cards themselves
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: are actually scratching sniffs, so you can actually spell the
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: ingredient to cool, and the whole game it'll be called
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: uh Chipotle the game because if you fail your roll,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: you lose points because you literally shit yourself. So the
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: concept to kind of kind of reiterate, it's basically a
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: deck building game where you build your own ingredients into
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: a tilla bowl that gives you plus points negative. Then
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: at the end of the round you roll the dice.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: If you fail, you shit yourself and you lose those points,
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: and it's all scratch and sniff in the car that
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: tells her you shit.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: Yourself just smells like newborn pooh.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: How does the deck building part work into it? Like,
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: can you play cards to earn more or better ingredients?
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so certain ingredients, like certain quality ingredients are like
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: worth plus points, So like white rice says like plus one,
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: but like brown rice is like plus two or something
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: like that. But like then you've got things like if
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: you add like certain hot sauce. Hot sauces like you
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: can have like Ted's rot hot sauce gives you like
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: plus one points, but like minus two to your role,
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: but to.
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: Your ship yourself.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: Roll yourself roll.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: But then if you do something like saracha that has
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: like mayo in it, then it'll like give you like
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: plus two, but we all get a plus minus three
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: to shit in yourself.
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: You know, Wow, you've put a fair amount of thought
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: into this against Yes, it's awesome. I like it quite
• 37:30
  Speaker 4: a bit.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: I like that a lot. It's fucking great.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: As you can tell. I don't go to Chipotle anymore
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: because I always lose that fucking game.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: Kept rolling that one number one number.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: Once won that game.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: Of course, there's always like a base difficulty modifier like
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: let's say, like for example, like fifteen or whatever, and
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: but there's negatives that like reduce it so you or
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: increase it or whatever so you have to roll higher
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: or something like to succeed the role. It's kind of
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: like a constitution check, like it's up at Chipotle, so
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: you never win.
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: That is wild and I absolutely love it. Can't wait
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: to play that game. It feels less like a tabletop
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: role playing game than just a tabletop game, just like
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: a board game.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, if you want to do like our tabletop
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: role playing game. You could play role play as the
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: employees that work there.
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: Ah, and you have to deal with and like you
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: have like the the role is not for you to
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: ship yourself with the customer.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, so the encounters your role is you having
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: to go into the men's bathroom and clean up.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: This game is getting better and better as he keeps talking.
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: Okay, okay, yeah, I want to back this. This genuinely
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: sounds fun.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: All right, well done, that sounds amazing, Stevie.
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: You got to top that at your return to your best.
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: It's time to pitch.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: Me, gentlemen. I've come with a new tabletop role playing game,
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: and it's called techs Abound. Each player creates their own
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: technician or chooses a premat one tax and those kind
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: of text.
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: They are tasked with it printer HVAC electrical tickets and
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: have to resolve them one roll by the roll of
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: the dice. So you use the status as you would normally,
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: based on what you would need, like, uh, you need
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: good charisma for customer service interactions. You don't know how
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: to fix that blinking red light. We'll roll your charisma
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: and talk your way out of it by telling your customer.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: That's normal operation. So you can actually get around somebody
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: some things instead of actually fixing some of their problems
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: and shit, you can get upgraded tools, new vehicles, even
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: new technologies and stuff that could like make your job easier.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: Then your whole tech group that you have, like your
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: your different texts you have working together, can take on
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: your office service manager and epic bantles of who is
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: actually right and who's just an asshole manager? Like I
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: think that was going to bring a lot of stuff
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: the light and would bring a lot of fun, like
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: especially like people who have that background as you and
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: I do as a technician and shit, and you be like, oh,
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: now we get the fuck with these people? And I mean, yeah,
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: that can resolve the issue. The issue will get resolved,
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: but in your way, not the company's way. So that's
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: me man, I say, we do Like you could be anything.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: You'd be like current. It could be futuristic, say you
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: need to fix the space shuttles transportation system, Like you
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: could go anywhere with this. Wow hell yeah.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: So like for example, you'd be like Aaron. You get
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: a phone call from a client they're having issues with
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: their computer, make a persuasion roll to convince them to
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: turn it off and back out. If you fail, you
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: have to go and do it for them.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: And now it's like, all right, assemble the team. What
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: should we bring with us? Because you can only carry
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: so much weight on your character anyway until you get
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: those vehicle upgrades later on and shit service truck.
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: Okay, dude, I see what you're doing here, and I
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: like it, but I mean I have to go with
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: honestly good yours. Yours just sounds like what I do
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: in my real life, and it's.
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: I was thinking that might have been a drawback.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: It is a drawback. It's like, do I want to
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: do this for fun as well? No?
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: No, he's more of us around a tablehill and the game.
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, thank you.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: I was playing Stardo all the time, so I figured
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: it's almost the same thing as that. It's like if
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: you're a farmer all day.
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: And except we're not farmers all day.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: We're not, but I know a farmer who plays that
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: all the time too.
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: It's just no, like I come home, I don't want to.
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: Do Yeah, this might be a detriment, but fuck it,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: it's a good idea. Aaron just won't like it.
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: Whereas the Chipotle thing, like if you just left it there.
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: But when you suggested that we could do it as
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: running aroun strut as the employees try to avoid making
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: the customers ship themselves, I'm like, you know, some of
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: us would be deliberately making those customers.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, did you microwave that meet for the full thirty seconds?
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Snow fifteen, bitch?
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: And remember it's scratch and sniffs.
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: That part was kind of a detriment. I could live
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: without this.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: No, it's requirement, but I do.
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: I do really like the idea of working like a
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: deck building game into tabletop. I would really enjoy that experience.
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: I think, hell yeah, there there are some games that
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: have kind of done the deck building slash tabletop thing,
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: like gloom Haven has instead of a D twenty, you
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: get a deck cards, but you can make that decor
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: cards better, so it's effectively better. It's effectively making a
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: D twenty bit like replacing one of the.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: Or you can move a chart or something.
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like replacing the nineteen with another twenty, like you know,
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: imagine stuff like that. Yeah, so it was it was
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: very cool. U and I enjoy the idea have like
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: an actual role playing game with that tech building belt in.
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: So yeah, point easily goes to Oggy has two points
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: to Stevie's one, So we are going to get a
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: definitive winner, and shit, you're going to decide who that
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: definitive winner is when we play game three. It's worth
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: three episode points and we will play that game right
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: after this.

• 53:46
  Speaker 4: I just need to whip up the questions, that's all.
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: But it doesn't take long and it doesn't require any
• 53:51
  Speaker 4: you know, this doesn't require a ton of work. This
• 53:54
  Speaker 4: might be my like most efficient game show concept ever
• 53:59
  Speaker 4: because it requires so little work to do, but it
• 54:02
  Speaker 4: provides so much entertainment. Like it's I genuinely enjoy the
• 54:05
  Speaker 4: shout out of doing that show. So you will see
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: it again one thousand percent, I guarantee. But yeah, let's
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: let's let's get back to the games. Thanks for listening
• 54:14
  Speaker 4: to our nonsense. And if you want to leave a
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: voicemail yourself, just wait for the instructions at the end
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: of the show. But for now, let's get back to
• 54:21
  Speaker 4: the games.
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: Well, finish this up.
• 54:23
  Speaker 4: Let's do uh, let's do game three.
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Game three in five four three.
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: Hey man, welcome back to game three. It's gonna be
• 54:44
  Speaker 4: the cost is correct, my favorite bidding game. I've got
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: three end of my line, I got three items. Well
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: you never know, Stevie's historically been very good at this game.
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: But you can still win this one. You might even
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: have an edge because I've got three items to bid
• 54:57
  Speaker 4: on here. And to keep it in the theme of
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: the rest of the show. Uh, these are all dungeons
• 55:02
  Speaker 4: and Dragons related items. We had a theme we sort
• 55:06
  Speaker 4: of did. Oh fuck, we sort of did. I mean
• 55:10
  Speaker 4: started us off with the dungeons character. Our second game
• 55:13
  Speaker 4: was about a tabletop so Our third game is going
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: to be about items that sold for. You know, I'm
• 55:19
  Speaker 4: not going to tell you what this sold for. That's
• 55:21
  Speaker 4: the whole point in the game. That are related to dungeons,
• 55:26
  Speaker 4: dungeons and dragons. So the one of you gets close
• 55:29
  Speaker 4: to the actual final selling price the item on Viva
• 55:31
  Speaker 4: without going over wins again. Because there's the two of you,
• 55:34
  Speaker 4: we're going to do the final bids rules. You'll just
• 55:36
  Speaker 4: keep bidding and bidding until you get close enough for
• 55:39
  Speaker 4: me to call final bids, or until one of you
• 55:41
  Speaker 4: goes over. So just be careful of that. First player
• 55:45
  Speaker 4: to win two listings will win the game and earn
• 55:48
  Speaker 4: themselves three episode points and win the entire episode.
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: Six thousand dollars.

• 56:40
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to be a starting bit. That's fair
