No, I haven't discovered a problem.
0:01
I fixed the problem. We are now recording but I there
0:04
is a problem from last week. What's that?
0:08
Matt, you need to retract something that you wrote.
0:11
Oh. What did I write?
0:13
You claimed Doctor Watson was not a real doctor.
0:17
Oh oh. Rude.
0:21
That's disgusting. Did we get complaints?
0:24
Not a medicine complaint. She's got a PhD, yes.
0:28
She still owed that title. OK mate, if I got PhD I'd be
0:33
fucking sorry. That's Doctor Miller.
0:35
Excuse you. Can we, I mean, can we also, I,
0:38
I mean, I wasn't just besmirching her.
0:42
I it was actually a a compliment in which I included that
0:46
statement I believe. No, like somebody might get gig
0:49
of the week, but that doesn't mean they're a real doctor.
0:54
Hang on, let me pull up my notes.
0:55
What did I say you said? Oh, I say, you say.
0:58
A heartfelt farewell to Doctor Watson.
1:00
She may not have been a real doctor, but she was a real
1:02
cutie. OK.
1:04
I mean, that's a pretty nice message.
1:05
Luke this. Message.
1:06
I mean, now that I'm looking at it again, that is a little
1:07
condescending, so. I mean it would be condescending
1:11
if it was 1 human talking about another human.
1:13
Sure, Doctor Watson is amazing. She is a doctor.
1:19
OK, all right. I apologise.
1:23
I will because we did get complaints.
1:25
Oh, there you go some. More patience.
1:28
Listeners. Yeah.
1:30
Yeah. Welcome to Multiple Nerdgasm
1:37
with your hosts Matt, Luke and Dan Multiple Nerdgasm, your
1:44
guide to all things nerdy. No, we've just, we've discussed
1:54
this. She's a philosophical doctorate.
1:56
So she's people that have read her book, have written in and
2:00
said I've read her thesis. She used to look after me after
2:04
surgery and stuff. Yeah.
2:08
And did you say purring is good for bone healing?
2:12
Who says that? Doctors.
2:16
Doctors 1 cat. I see.
2:27
Oh, very good. All right.
2:28
Well, yes, I apologize. Didn't mean no.
2:31
It was a very hot. It was a lovely message as well.
2:33
But yeah, she's a doctor. I've got I've got a lot of
2:36
information calling her a doctor here all.
2:38
Right. In fact, I seem to recall Luke
2:42
telling a nurse, stay in your place because this is you're
2:45
addressing a doctor. Well, the problem was she was a
2:52
nurse and she thought because I have Doctor Watson, it must be a
2:56
boy. I see.
2:59
Right. So it wasn't saying that can't
3:01
be a doctor just because women can't be doctors.
3:04
Just because you're the aiming higher doesn't mean Doctor
3:08
Watson has aimed higher. Right.
3:10
When I was a kid, I used to think that if you were a good
3:12
enough nurse, eventually you'd become a doctor of Since that's
3:14
not the case. Yeah, no, there there is
3:17
something, I don't know if it's in Australia, but in America
3:19
there is a sort of a pathway to it where you can be not a fool
3:24
doctor, but sort of like a bit more qualified.
3:26
Transitioning no from a nurse into a doctor, I mean.
3:31
Yeah, Yeah, I do. I mean, I, I watch scrubs.
3:33
That's where I get all of my medical information from.
3:36
And I know that Carla worked harder than any of the doctors.
3:38
Yeah, so. That's where Carla, she got the
3:41
paperwork so she could do that transition.
3:44
Seemed to be a bit bit more than a nurse, not quite a doctor, but
3:48
yeah. And we're getting scrubs.
3:50
More scrubs soon. We are.
3:53
We're getting more scrubs. Are any of them in it the?
3:56
Yes. Yes, Zach Braff signed up, and I
3:59
think that's the only one they'd have trouble with.
4:01
So I assume the rest of them are like please let me be back in
4:03
the show. They would have had trouble with
4:06
Zach Braff maybe 10 years ago, but what's he doing now exactly?
4:11
Not even dating an A Lister is. He dating now.
4:16
No, I don't know. He was dating Hillary.
4:19
Florence Pew. Florence Pew.
4:20
Hillary Florence Pew. Hillary.
4:22
Hillary H Florence Pew I used to know a girl called Hilary Pew.
4:32
And that's I always got to say that.
4:33
Hillary Pew, if you're listening, if you're a costume
4:36
designer living in Los Angeles, shout out to you, Hillary.
4:40
If you're listening, all my respect, Freda nipple this one,
4:45
yeah. One nipple.
4:48
One nipple. Do it well.
4:49
My thing is we either free it for everyone or everyone has to
4:53
cover them up. Yeah, I prefer everyone covering
4:56
them up, to be honest. I was going to say, what did she
4:58
do? I've missed something other than
5:01
getting them out in Oppenheimer. What did she do?
5:02
No, no, she's very much. She wants to get them out on
5:05
Instagram. Matt she, she.
5:07
Wants. To Yeah, she's very much alike.
5:10
Like if a guy can grab the top off, why can't?
5:14
And on Instagram, a guy can question.
5:16
What those tight. It's true.
5:17
Yeah, well, I've heard women say the same thing about jogging and
5:22
and like, for starters, I think that's a bad example because I
5:25
can see certain logistical problems with why a woman
5:29
wouldn't want to jog topless. But also I'm against that
5:32
because I fucking hate it when I see men jogging topless because
5:37
you only jog topless once you have a. 5.
5:40
The body Z and it's like fuck you, you show off.
5:43
Don't. Don't fucking rub that shit in
5:45
my face. Yeah.
5:47
Yeah, that's why I. Think we're talking to Florence,
5:49
everyone? Or are we talking to the?
5:50
Yeah, yeah. Don't rub those in my face.
5:54
Oh, all right, fine. Twisted my arm.
6:00
I'm interested for the after party because there's Bonnie
6:04
Blue information in heat that I'm not aware of.
6:07
Yes, so. You.
6:09
Teeter maybe, and this is actually this is a direct follow
6:12
up to the news that you brought to the table last week.
6:15
So stick around to the after party to find out why Bonnie
6:18
Blue is in hot water. patreon.com/youwish man, you
6:24
fucking wish. Forward slash, multiple orgasm
6:30
and join up. Get the other half of the show
6:34
and you can find that out as well as some other things.
6:40
But here's some personal news. And this is neither here nor
6:43
there, but my wife, right, is in England right now, right?
6:48
Just rang me. Rang me to tell me that she's
6:52
just saw the king. Oh.
6:55
Yeah, the King. Just.
6:57
His Majesty the King. Well.
6:59
Interacted with the King Al. King Yeah.
7:01
So His Majesty the King, Charles the Third, she was just on
7:06
London Bridge, right, Right. And and she was like, how how
7:12
long does it take to to walk to Buckingham Palace from here?
7:14
I said, oh, like it's not a short walk, but you can get
7:17
there like you get down there, you.
7:18
Can I think this gentleman was like, I'll give you a lift?
7:22
I'm going that way, you know, And she's like, Oh yeah, I'll go
7:26
down there. Maybe I'll see one of those
7:28
guards with the big hat. Someone said, well, you will
7:30
definitely see that because they always there.
7:34
And so she was like, I'll call you if I see one of the guards.
7:37
So she rang me and I was like, OK, let's hear about this guard.
7:40
She's like, I can see the fucking king.
7:43
I can see him. He's coming out and getting into
7:45
his car with everyone with, with the Queen, with the children,
7:50
with everyone, right? Now I'm going to guess not all
7:53
the children. No, not all the children.
7:55
Not all the children. All the children in England,
7:58
obviously. Unfortunately Facebook forced me
8:00
without my knowledge to watch one of them do a dance yesterday
8:03
and I was like oh I don't want to see this without.
8:05
Your knowledge, you just you just suddenly had the memory of
8:10
it. Didn't know it was the wife of a
8:12
Prince until. Who am I watching do this
8:15
ridiculous dance? The one thing I sort of felt
8:17
funny because what is it, Harry, that they're sort of disowned
8:20
and he's also disowned them. Yeah, you can't disown me.
8:24
I disown you. But at the Queen's funeral, he
8:29
was the only one not allowed to wear military garb, even though
8:32
he was the only one who. Acted actually served, Yeah, but
8:36
he had to give up all his titles, I believe.
8:38
Right? I guess that's.
8:40
Part that's not a, but I don't know, that's not a little bit
8:43
different because that's not him.
8:44
Well, most of them are honorary titles.
8:46
Yeah, but he served. Yeah, he.
8:48
Was talking about this and I do and I'm British.
8:50
What the fuck? We're the Commonwealth, Matt.
8:54
You're an American, Yes. OK, You threw the tea in the
8:57
fucking ocean. And you?
8:58
Yeah, I. Don't know what else?
9:00
Yeah. I'm an Ivy American.
9:03
There's a famous clip of Harry when they're interviewing him
9:07
when he's over in Iraq and there's yellow alarms going off
9:10
and he's dumb shit got to go. And he, because he was a pilot
9:13
and so right, took old stuff off and ran to go and.
9:17
Pop in the jet. Do shit.
9:18
No helicopter pilot. Pop in a helicopter.
9:22
It is less impressive than a Jet, but it's still pretty
9:24
impressive. I don't know, I think a
9:26
helicopter. 'S more dangerous than a jet in
9:29
that. You get more in in the muck.
9:32
I guess, wait, there's no, there's no windows, right?
9:35
So I mean you want to strap in. But.
9:38
Yeah. I mean, a fighter jet, you're
9:41
just kind of like over the battlefield, yes, what do I get?
9:45
And the other planes and missiles are there.
9:47
But if you're a helicopter, you've got to get in there and
9:49
drop people off and do all sorts of stuff.
9:51
That's intense. Yeah, yeah.
9:53
You're just thinking of mash, aren't you?
9:55
That's what you're. Thinking of mash and.
9:59
I'm thinking of jungle. Down, Blackhawk.
10:01
Down. Yeah, yeah, Blackhawk.
10:02
Down I'm thinking of the old Mega Drive game, Jungle Strike,
10:05
Desert Strike, and oh. Yeah, those were good.
10:08
And in fact, now that you've said that, I'm thinking of the
10:10
old Amelia game, Silkworm. Silkworm was amazing.
10:15
Not historically accurate though.
10:18
No, you know, silkworm's in it, not the one.
10:23
Well, they might be in the trees, but you can't see them.
10:25
True, true. Are you suggesting it was
10:28
Southeast Asia? Probably.
10:29
Was I'm just saying another thing of it?
10:31
I'm just making a stupid joke to be honest.
10:33
I didn't mean it quiet. Actually, now that I think about
10:37
it, I don't know where Silkworm was meant to be set.
10:40
No, but it had. Spaceship thought it all.
10:42
Right. Am I misremembering?
10:45
Yeah, no, no, no. It had like, yeah, futuristic
10:47
helicopters. I wouldn't call them spaceship.
10:50
But is it a bit like Top Gun just.
10:51
Generic yes. Generic enemy?
10:54
Yes. Yeah, I know.
10:55
You're right. It was.
10:56
They're not like us. Military.
10:58
Yeah, they're just a bit different, but there was some
11:00
cool like James Bondy shit, rockets firing out of the ground
11:03
and stuff. I remember there was an amiga at
11:07
school and silkworm was available.
11:11
That was my exposure to it. We had an Apple two at our
11:14
school. We had a few of those and one
11:17
Amiga, yeah. Yeah, I did.
11:20
Actually, there's some computers.
11:21
Come in San Diego, later over here, Silkworm over there.
11:24
Right. Yeah, yeah.
11:26
Hey, don't not come in San Diego.
11:28
It might. It might have had the graphical
11:29
fidelity of Silkworm, but that was still a game I poured hours
11:32
into as a kid. Great.
11:34
Game. I learned nothing from it.
11:37
I did, I forgot it instantly because it was contextual.
11:39
It's like, yes, once I found her, didn't need to know.
11:41
She was, yeah. Didn't need to know her.
11:43
So I didn't know because I pirated the game, right?
11:49
When you bought the game, it came with like a little little
11:54
booklet. Was it all the answers to the
11:55
questions thick? Sure, but what I'm saying is I
11:58
had to go to literal encyclopedias and learn.
12:02
I didn't know that came. Yeah, no, I just thought you had
12:04
to know. Some of them did, some of them
12:06
did right. It depends.
12:08
The earlier ones, well, even like if you look at some very
12:12
early games, they came with thick books because it was you
12:16
go north now, go to this page and read what you see.
12:19
Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:22
Roll a literal dice and then tell the computer what you got.
12:27
I'm playing Gateway to the Savage Frontier on my Commodore
12:29
64 where you walked around and then it said read page 5 and
12:34
then yeah, literally like you're describing.
12:36
Yep. Yeah, the the yeah, all the text
12:39
for the game was in a book because Yep, you know, yeah
12:41
memory, but you'll still. Yeah, that's right.
12:43
Don't use like the computer game. 64 K of memory.
12:49
With words. Yeah.
12:53
Speaking of games, I. Oh, I've got to put a game in
12:57
here. I stumbled onto a YouTube video
13:00
at one point earlier this week of a guy playing a game that
13:03
you've probably all heard of and possibly all played and own from
13:08
15 odd years ago. The Project Zomboid.
13:12
Remember that game? I did.
13:14
I brought that game. Do remember that.
13:16
Beta and never actually even got to the played the full version,
13:21
but I do own it. I watched this video of someone
13:24
playing it and I was like, that's quite compelling.
13:28
So I and I own it. I own it for like honestly, I
13:34
maybe 15 years ago, right? I'm not exaggerating.
13:36
I don't think it's ages and ages.
13:38
When I was in Australia, I had it so.
13:40
Well, yeah, that's at least 10 years ago.
13:43
And so anyway I. Had a fourth member of the
13:46
podcast where we yeah. Had that, I would say so yeah.
13:52
So anyway, I, I installed it and I've gotten a little bit
13:56
addicted to it. It's very like, it's fucking
14:01
hard, but I've gotten quite good at it now.
14:04
It's like, like it's rewarding in that sense.
14:06
So basically the premise is you, you can choose certain
14:09
parameters for the game. The, the, I think the default
14:12
one is, is Armageddon. And basically you are a survivor
14:15
in a zombie apocalypse. And when the game starts, you'll
14:17
be in a house and you are for the most part immediately safe.
14:23
But that will change rapidly as the zombies figure out that
14:26
you're in there. And you basically have to
14:28
survive. And you need food and you need
14:31
water. And at some point within the 1st
14:34
30 days the pack, the electricity in the water gets
14:36
shut off. So you need to prepare for that.
14:40
You will need to leave the house you're in at some point because
14:43
you need more food and water and supplies and stuff like that.
14:48
And then also basically it's just like a simulation in a, in
14:52
a kind of a fun goofy way, but there's like vehicles and you
14:55
can like. Hot wire?
14:56
That sounds like this war of mine, except I've actually
15:00
zombies. Instead of the point, because
15:02
it's been around so long, it's got mechanics for like
15:06
everything. Like you can hot wire a car, you
15:08
can become a mechanic and fix cars and siphon gas out of cars
15:12
and like. I've actually seen some YouTube
15:15
channels where they'll go like we're going to get 100 projects
15:18
Envoy players in and just watch how they react and watch them
15:22
form cliques and groups and go out writing together.
15:26
And then it's cool, man. It's actually quite interesting
15:29
how. And there's no saving if your
15:33
character dies, you have to start again.
15:35
And so my character right now that I've been playing, I've,
15:38
I've, I've gone through about 10 characters and they've all
15:40
lasted maybe. So first be last like 5 minutes.
15:42
Because once you learn in particular the mechanics of
15:45
combat are important. You do not want to try to to
15:50
fight more than one or two zombies at a time, Ideally one
15:54
because even if you get bitten. Ideally less than one.
15:57
You're fucked. So you need to keep pushing them
16:01
away and then whacking them with something and then because if
16:03
you use a gun, more come because they hear it.
16:06
So yeah. Yeah, a gun you want to save for
16:09
if you're playing on a multiplay server and there are other
16:11
humans. Correct.
16:13
Yeah. Or if you can like distract
16:14
them, because you can set a car alarm off or a house alarm and
16:17
then they'll all go to that. It's it's just very like, it's
16:19
very elaborate. And there's like you can read
16:22
books on cooking and you can cook food for yourself and like,
16:28
and you can forage in the forest if that's, if that's what you
16:31
want to do. There's a mall, there's a giant
16:33
fucking mall. You can go do like Dawn of the
16:36
day. You can't have zombies without a
16:37
mall, yeah. But there's like, the maps are
16:40
huge and yeah, it's fun, I must admit that.
16:45
Sounds We didn't pay nearly enough attention to this, by the
16:49
sounds of it. I feel like when I first played
16:52
it, tried it, and it is fucking hard.
16:53
At first. It's really hard.
16:55
There's a learning curve. But once you get over it, like
16:57
I've found, like my guy that I've got right now has been
16:59
alive for maybe a week and it's like, OK, like I'm like, you
17:03
learn. At the time I got it, it was.
17:08
It was like the full version. So it was still very early on.
17:12
So a lot of these mechanics that are there are there now.
17:17
And it was one of those games like, Yep, I can see this is
17:19
going to be cool, but never went back for the release.
17:23
And now it's, yeah, 15 years old.
17:26
Yeah, well, and they're just still releasing updates for it.
17:30
Yeah, because it's. Actually, it's really good.
17:33
For it. It's really fun.
17:36
It's like I said, just steep learning curve, but once you get
17:38
the hang of it as I'm evidence of because my guy has not died
17:45
the first time I got. A zombie.
17:47
So yeah, and you learn things like, you know, like if you
17:52
knock a zombie over and then you stand on it, it can't get up and
17:55
bite you. And you can just hit it in the
17:56
head repeatedly like. Yeah.
18:01
Yeah, and you could say that's cheating, but that's that's what
18:02
I would do in real. Life.
18:03
Oh, absolutely. There's no cheating, which is
18:06
you versus zombies. That's there's no cheating, it's
18:09
survival, yeah. In.
18:10
Real life, I've always said I want to be the one of the first
18:13
ones wiped out. I don't want to go through these
18:16
troubles. Yeah, thank you.
18:18
I don't want to learn how to farm and.
18:21
You get bored in it, your guy gets bored and it's like you've
18:23
got to, you've got to give him something to do otherwise he
18:25
will just fucking shoot himself in the head.
18:27
He gets mad, he's getting bored. Developed like.
18:30
Psychology if I don't have an. Export of mine too, if you if
18:34
you let people get bored, they commit suicide.
18:36
Yeah, I don't know about that. He get you get developed
18:38
psychological issues and like you can get, yeah, you get all
18:43
sorts of health issues. You've got like fucking bandage
18:46
and disinfect your wounds if you get hurt.
18:48
Yeah, anyway. Damn.
18:51
OK. Check it out, it's cool.
18:52
What are you? Playing it on.
18:53
It's my Mac. Yeah, but from on Steam.
18:56
Oh, yes, yeah, yeah. Sorry.
18:58
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Interesting.
19:02
I don't know how much it costs, I bought it a long time ago.
19:06
I think when I purchased it back then it was like 7 dollars.
19:12
I think that rings a bell. Let's find out.
19:15
I I checked the price of something this week because I
19:18
really want to play Assassin's Creed but I don't want to pay
19:22
$110.00 for it, especially when every single other Assassin's
19:26
Creed is on game pass so I know it's going to be on there
19:29
eventually. Yes, yeah.
19:33
And they're always like on sale. That's how I got what I see.
19:36
$10.00 for the cheap version, it's 150 for the special
19:40
edition. All right.
19:42
Or you could if you just want to try 20 bucks.
19:45
I did think about doing that. I did think about doing the
19:48
Ubisoft. Yeah.
19:50
Yeah. I.
19:50
Always wish I could just do a yearly subscription to that now
19:54
instead of the monthly one. Oh yeah.
19:57
And I'd want to do that for Xbox.
19:58
I just want to do all the subscriptions.
20:00
Just let me do a year. Let me spread it out.
20:02
Our projects are always. Fine, they remind you that
20:04
they're coming up. Yes.
20:07
It's 30 bucks did you say? 30 bucks now but I know I paid
20:10
like $7.00 something. Yeah, same.
20:12
I did pay a lot for it. I bought it when I think you
20:15
bought it off their website and then they gave you later.
20:17
They gave us Steam keys because it wasn't even on Steam.
20:22
Which I don't think I actually own it in Steam, so I probably
20:26
missed that e-mail. Yeah.
20:28
Oh no, it's in my library. I did do it.
20:31
Oh, there you go. Yeah, I mean, check out a video
20:35
first because like I said, it's maybe it's just appealing to me
20:38
for some particular. No, no, I mean, it's several
20:43
boxes. Yeah, I'll definitely check this
20:44
out. I did play something this week
20:46
at both of your recommendations, sort of.
20:50
I I didn't. No, I did.
20:52
I went back into Minecraft. Oh yeah, Yesterday.
20:57
Just popped it on, immediately killed.
21:01
Fed up with it, turned it off right?
21:03
You could call it a rage quit. Whatever, I'll go back in soon.
21:08
Yes, I got it on my switch to. I can connect to our room on my
21:11
switch to SO. So I wanted to play something
21:14
else and I thought what else have I downloaded?
21:16
And then I remember that you guys convinced me to buy Death
21:20
Stranding. Oh yeah.
21:23
So I played it. It's probably the most beautiful
21:30
game I've ever seen. Yeah, it's great.
21:32
But I've got one question. Yeah.
21:35
What is it we did? What did I just see?
21:43
It is the weirdest, the single weirdest experience.
21:46
And the what makes it weird is that nobody's gone.
21:49
All this is a bit weird. Everyone's acting like I'm the
21:52
idiot from not understanding. Yeah, where'd you get up to?
21:57
I I just played, I guess what you'd call the tutorials and
22:02
when you meet the French girl with the spiky clothes and then
22:06
something invisible climbs around.
22:08
Oh. Did you go to the so you can get
22:11
to the city of the dead body or? Anything.
22:13
I. Have man, I was on my way to the
22:15
city and then I was like, I need a break because I don't know
22:17
what I just saw, so I'll keep going.
22:21
I was going to say yeah. Beautiful, but fuck me.
22:24
It's it gets serious. But would you explain we don't
22:28
understand the game either? No, but it's compelling.
22:32
That's the thing. It's got that thing where it's
22:34
I, I don't know. I mean, I want to say like, I
22:37
found it a lot with Japanese media.
22:39
I don't know whether that's just because Western audiences, you
22:42
know, we're not. We weren't.
22:43
Yeah, Japanese people were like, yeah, Death Stranding, right?
22:47
Yeah, it's pretty straightforward, easier to.
22:49
Follow it. Yeah.
22:50
It's like we're not. And there's also was that movie
22:54
I watched. I've mentioned this before.
22:55
I think it's a Chinese movie about Chinese vampires.
22:58
That. Probably they just, you know,
23:01
like when I watch we watch Dracula, it's like they don't
23:03
have to explain which vampires or, or sinners actually, which
23:05
I'll talk about again. They don't have to explain
23:07
vampires really. We know what they are.
23:10
But when I watch this Chinese vampire movie, I'm like, the
23:12
fuck is going on? Are they jumping?
23:15
Are they hopping? Hopping and then they have to
23:18
the ghosts. You could capture a ghost if you
23:20
put blood on a string and like they're all the, they're doing
23:23
all this stuff and I'm just like, I mean, it's incredible.
23:26
I love it. I don't understand what the fuck
23:28
is happening. I love the Chinese paranormal
23:35
stuff culture because it's mainstream culture.
23:38
It's not some fringe thing, right?
23:40
When somebody dies, you keep the body in your home for three
23:44
days, right? You keep it on the dining room
23:47
table, usually right where anyone can see it at any time.
23:50
You sprinkle talcum powder on the floor so that you can see in
23:55
the morning if their ghost is crept away during the night.
23:59
That's awesome. Yeah.
24:01
Is it like? August is the Hungry Ghost
24:04
Festival where you've got to leave food outside your house or
24:07
the ghosts will fucking come in to eat your food.
24:10
But I want to know is it sort of like Christmas where someone
24:13
gets something to be like to drink the milk and eat the
24:15
carrot where someone puts footprints in?
24:16
So yes, they no God. Because they're very
24:19
superstitious. They don't want to see
24:20
footprints. They definitely don't.
24:22
If you did that, you would cause a lot of drama.
24:26
Is it true this? I want to, I feel like I've
24:29
asked somebody and this was true.
24:30
Is that when when someone dies, you can go and buy paper
24:33
representations of stuff to burn and then they have it in the
24:37
afterlife. That's fucking awesome.
24:38
That's so interesting. If you go to the market on the
24:42
in Chinatown on the weekends, you'll see stalls that that just
24:46
sell. And I remember a girl that I
24:49
worked with in Singapore was legitimately complaining.
24:53
Like, yeah, they burned my granddad an effigy of an iPhone,
24:57
but did they burn a charger? No.
24:58
So how's he going to charge it like?
25:01
Yeah, it's funny. No.
25:04
Money you burn, money for them to have.
25:06
Buried the stuff with them. Yeah, right.
25:09
Yeah, yeah. Actually, here's a little.
25:11
Man, yeah, I reckon they probably used to do that
25:14
historically too. And then at some point somebody
25:15
said, could we keep the money and burn pretend money?
25:25
Yeah, I think that keep going with death training.
25:28
I mean, I will be honest, I haven't played it in a bit
25:30
because I it did Peter off because once you actually get
25:33
into the game proper, sure, there's less crazy shit
25:35
happening. So OK, I I would like to go back
25:40
to it. It's very imaginative and if the
25:42
Japanese do something well, it's making real life seem really
25:47
fantastical. And, and in this just am I on
25:52
Earth? Am I in space?
25:54
I've got no idea. You know I.
25:57
Mean it is Earth, but OK, yes. Not as you know it, no.
26:00
Definitely it. Is definitely earth.
26:02
It's actually I was disappointed that fucking motorbike he was on
26:05
went off the Cliff. Do I get that back at any point
26:08
because I wanted to ride? That I think even late you do
26:11
and I think even later in the in the game you get a car.
26:14
But I they've never gotten that far.
26:17
I've gotten to the bike. It's America.
26:20
He's probably like, oh, it's not even in the future.
26:23
That's what I legitimately think America is like.
26:29
Well, over on games I have some exciting news.
26:32
I am finally getting Final Fantasy 7.
26:36
Yes. Oh, that's right, the showcase.
26:38
Yeah. Yes, I didn't know that it's
26:40
coming to Xbox. Coming to Xbox finally, Sony
26:43
have stopped giving Square Enix money to keep it an exclusive.
26:47
The Scott knows what reason. Yeah.
26:51
So when can we expect it? They haven't announced the date
26:55
of it yet, but I'm. I mean, the game is done so.
26:58
The game's done because they they have released it tomorrow.
27:02
They've not done. They must have been working on
27:04
this preemptively, yeah. Oh yeah, sure, right.
27:07
I don't know if it works like that, but maybe.
27:09
They they could release it tomorrow and I honestly do
27:13
believe that. But no, they haven't announced
27:15
that. They announced some other cool
27:16
stuff. I'm getting a new handheld.
27:20
Oh, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw that.
27:22
Yeah. So they correct me if I'm wrong.
27:25
So this is the Asus thing, right?
27:29
It's an ROGLIX. Yeah, the Asus.
27:34
And it runs the games on it right?
27:37
Not cloud. Is that true?
27:39
Yes. Interesting this is the first
27:41
time Xbox games run on something that's not an Xbox technically,
27:45
although they they did say. Oh they technically when I use
27:47
my handheld they're running on my Xbox.
27:50
It's that's right. That's what I mean.
27:52
It's. Because I'm not playing cloud
27:54
games from Xbox Cloud, I'm playing, right?
27:57
It's it's. Not actually runs them on it.
28:00
Natively. Yes, it's not quite clear.
28:02
Yes. So it's not going to play all
28:04
Xbox games, right. And so it's not quite clear.
28:09
It's, yeah, it's going to run like a sort of a cutback version
28:12
of Windows. It's going to focus on the Xbox
28:14
side. So I think about any game that
28:17
you can get on PC, I think that'll run fine.
28:20
The Xbox maybe not. They're saying any plate anyway,
28:25
game you'll be able to play, which means streaming.
28:27
But I think it's going to be better than the PlayStation one
28:29
which is streaming only. Did they say?
28:31
They said all the games that we're in the showcase, we'll run
28:35
in it, right? Which I guess so they're just
28:37
going forward, they're going to make sure they all do,
28:39
presumably. So I think anything, especially
28:42
anything that goes on Game Pass, that'll definitely work, whether
28:44
it's playing natively or streamed, I think it's up to.
28:49
Yeah, interesting. Question.
28:52
Do you know how much they are? Did they say?
28:54
Because they're out soon, right? They come see people holiday,
28:58
yeah, a lot of interns, media, yeah, yeah, they're coming out.
29:02
It's coming out this year. They haven't announced price
29:04
yet. People are saying about they're
29:06
thinking about 700 US, which actually I think it's quite
29:11
cheap. Because you don't need an Xbox,
29:14
right? Just to be clear.
29:15
You can own. Xbox yes, yes, well, you could
29:17
own this without previously owning an Xbox.
29:19
OK, so that's it has to be the price of a console.
29:21
Well. Switched to was 500.
29:24
That's the reason I'm like. Yeah.
29:26
Is it better enough? This is a more of a computer
29:29
than a console as well, because like my AI Neon X that was like
29:34
2 1/2, Yeah. So if I can get this.
29:38
ROG thing that is a. 100 I'm I'm I'll be very happy yeah but yeah
29:43
mine is a computer so. I mean, my absolute is
29:45
essentially just a an Android tablet, Yeah, with the
29:48
controller built around it. Yeah, same with my gcloud.
29:53
Yeah, but. It has a front end that you can
29:56
you can just just just run your emulator zone.
29:59
Yeah, that mine, the one I have, it's an actual computer.
30:02
I can run Windows 11 on it and yeah, it's great.
30:06
And so I'm hoping it's sort of a bit like that.
30:08
They're saying you'll be able to run like Steam games and
30:11
everything. So I'm excited.
30:14
Yeah, it's pretty cool. Yeah, I just hope they release
30:16
it in Australia. Yes.
30:19
They could not. Not from Xbox surely, Although
30:21
it's not you. Still can't get a Steam Deck
30:24
here unless you get sort of a grey import.
30:26
Well, you can't, that's true. I mean, they're available.
30:29
They're you can get one pretty easily now.
30:31
Like you can even get one from Big W but it's a grey import.
30:36
Yeah, and there's no infrastructure for repairs or?
30:40
Yeah, right. It's something because I always
30:42
worry about if something goes wrong, I've got nowhere to take
30:45
it. That's right, it's a.
30:46
Steam deck 400 bucks OK. I really did consider a Steam
30:52
Deck at one point. That's 400 US.
30:55
Like it's not 4. 100, yeah, but still, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
30:59
They're pretty affordable. It's cheaper than a switch too,
31:02
but yeah. I don't know what I have.
31:04
What's more capable at the moment?
31:07
Over 1000 Steam games. Yeah, they're all.
31:10
Round though and you know what? I've stopped playing steam
31:13
because I only have steam on my on my windows computer which is
31:19
not optimized for games, so I almost.
31:21
Don't even play. Your Windows computer is not
31:23
designed to play any game. What you can do of it is stream
31:28
games to it. That's it.
31:31
Yeah, I've never even tried. I don't know.
31:32
But anyway, I've stopped playing Steam.
31:35
I've got, you know, however many Steam games I own just
31:39
essentially unavailable to me at the moment.
31:41
Here's a crazy thing. Maybe you could play through
31:43
your backlog of Xbox games. Maybe.
31:47
Yeah. Well, you know.
31:50
This is advice I need to take. To be fair, I buy less.
31:56
I probably buy less games than you for Xbox because they're
32:00
almost always full price and I almost always just buy what I
32:04
want to play. So there aren't many games in my
32:07
Xbox library I haven't played. I must say, there's things I've
32:11
downloaded from Game Pass and not played and then deleted,
32:13
sure. But games that I've bought?
32:16
Probably not many, probably not many at all.
32:19
You know, Steam playing, definitely.
32:22
Well, yeah, the summer sales or winter sales, I stopped looking
32:25
at them long ago. The I don't think there's good
32:29
things. They used to be ether.
32:31
The sales. Yeah.
32:33
And the discount sound is deep. True and but they used to be
32:36
like I used to walk away with at least half a dozen games every
32:39
time there was a sale, whereas now it's like maybe 1.
32:42
Yeah, still haven't played any of them but.
32:46
Maybe we have more realistic ideas of what we can achieve.
32:50
Actually play. Yeah, maybe it's just that.
32:51
Yeah, as opposed to, oh, I might play this or oh, I like this on
32:56
another system I already paid for it on.
32:57
I'll just go ahead here too, in case I'm sitting in this chair
33:00
when I want to play. It one day I'm sure I could
33:01
spend hours and hours and hours a week playing games.
33:04
Now it's just like, no way mate. You know what I'm going to make
33:07
time for though. Did you see the DLC for Indiana
33:10
Jones? Yes, I am the only thing that I
33:14
was bummed about, so I'm very excited about it.
33:16
Love that game. Anything I was bummed I was like
33:18
please tell me, is this a new map or is it just set in the
33:23
Rome map? The value.
33:25
Map. On the ground, I hope there's
33:27
actually a whole new area. That's what I.
33:29
Want. Yeah.
33:29
OK, I hope you're right too. I assumed there was, but you you
33:33
could be right. They only showed they stood
33:35
under the Vatican. And it's like, well, I did that
33:37
already. I mean, it's still fine.
33:39
I still, you know, it still looks fine.
33:40
But I think I really just. Want a new place to go it?
33:43
Wasn't quite big that area, so I hope it's just if it is that
33:46
it's expanded. Because I really wanted to go to
33:50
Peru, but you never. Did.
33:51
Yes, they talked. About it, they mentioned it.
33:53
No, I'm gonna go to Peru. Nah.
33:55
That's what they need. They need a Yeah, yeah, I am
33:58
well. Actually, OK, technically you do
34:00
at the start, but that's not doesn't count.
34:02
No, that's very and I, but I also think you also go to China,
34:06
but not really. Not really.
34:08
Yeah, and. Sequence I think even I wouldn't
34:11
consider it a cheat. If they made a full playable
34:13
level in Shanghai, I'd be OK with that.
34:15
Yeah. That would be cool, I still
34:18
haven't finished it because that game breaking bug ruined just
34:23
killed me and now when they finally released something I
34:25
don't quite remember how to play and I.
34:28
Lost the time to start again. I've literally considered
34:31
playing it over from the start and mostly because when I played
34:35
the first third of the game I didn't really understand it, you
34:38
know? Like I wasn't sure even what I
34:39
was doing or if I even liked it. I'd love to play it from the
34:42
start and just enjoy it right from the beginning.
34:45
Yeah, that first area in the Vatican when, yeah, like you
34:49
said, didn't quite understand how the game worked in total.
34:53
Now that I do, I think I would do things differently.
34:56
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, great game.
35:00
OK, Yeah, I just can't. I can't replay games like that.
35:02
You need to do a remaster so I can get the achievements again.
35:05
Then I play it again. I still have to collect all the
35:10
the big, you know, Roman Dicks. There's a lot of them though.
35:13
There's like 17 of them. I know, but and then he does
35:17
Dicks and I also had a bug. I had a bug where I couldn't
35:19
collect a collectible because it didn't exist in the world and
35:24
that was a that was a known thing.
35:25
So hopefully that'll be fixed when I go back in for the DLC
35:28
and then I can finally collect it and then I will have 100
35:30
percented all the collectibles except the Dicks.
35:35
Yeah, they're not Dicks listeners.
35:36
I'm just, but you know what I mean?
35:38
Like. Dicks, yeah.
35:39
They do look like phalluses, yeah.
35:42
And they're they're all the same stone dildos.
35:45
I mean. Throughout the world.
35:49
They belong in a museum. In a museum in the country of
35:53
origin, right? What else was in the showcase?
36:03
I, I would be honest, I put the showcase on and then I, I did
36:07
get a bit bored. I didn't.
36:08
Actually watch. I didn't watch the whole.
36:10
Thing I'm getting old man. I couldn't even watch the whole
36:14
fucking thing. There was a lot of just stuff.
36:18
I was like, I don't care about this.
36:20
Yeah. Yeah, no.
36:22
There's just too much stuff that's the problem.
36:24
There's too much stuff done. I think we all like Outer Worlds
36:27
2 and stuff like that, but no for.
36:29
Me. Oh yeah, yeah, that was great.
36:31
Yeah. I'm looking forward to Outer
36:32
Worlds 2, but for me it was just Final Fantasy 7 and the
36:34
handheld. They were the big the big things
36:37
for me. There was what else?
36:41
There was something else. I've forgotten what it was
36:42
there. It was something announced not
36:45
in the showcase that caught me by surprise.
36:48
I didn't even see it until a couple of days later and then I
36:51
sent it to you guys. The fucking The Expanse.
36:55
Osiris Reborn is a Mass Effect style game set in the world.
37:00
The Expanse Fucking. What bring that old?
37:03
Yeah. Yeah, I didn't even know they
37:05
were making this. Yeah, they were like, what was
37:08
what on a game with Matt like? Let's make that because now is
37:12
this, is this like Witcher where it's like, this is just based on
37:17
the books, not on on the show, you know?
37:20
Like so? I don't think so because, well,
37:25
I guess I don't know for sure. The music in it is the music
37:27
from the show. I don't know that.
37:29
I don't know that means anything.
37:31
I guess they could have just licensed it for the trailer, but
37:34
that seems like a stretch. The Osiris or is a thing from
37:39
Mass Effect. So it kind of gives you, I
37:42
assume it's supposed to invoke a, you know, an idea of what
37:47
this might be somewhat about actually.
37:48
And you did you watch all the trailer with the the weird stuff
37:51
at the end, right. So it's like, OK, interesting.
37:55
Kind of know what that is, but not where they're going with it.
37:58
So I think it's Oh yeah. So what I was going to say is
38:01
the TV show ended. The books continue in a way that
38:07
so at the end of of the where the TV show ends, the books jump
38:13
ahead. I think like 100 years.
38:14
I haven't gotten to that point in the books because I watched
38:17
the TV show first. But my so my understanding is
38:20
that there's more stuff that happens later that I just don't
38:23
know about yet because it's in the books.
38:25
And I don't know where this is set.
38:27
But the fact that it's called Osiris, I don't know.
38:31
Maybe it's a sequel to the show. I don't know.
38:33
I don't know, but I just like it's not, it doesn't look like
38:35
they've like tried to shoe horn in people character.
38:38
I just just play in the universe.
38:40
Yeah, yeah, he could like, I don't know, Holden could be like
38:44
talked about. I mean, he he would be and
38:46
that's cool. Like, yeah, they could talk
38:50
about. It made me remember how much I
38:52
liked The Expanse, the show, and now I want.
38:55
To watch that again. Yeah, same.
38:57
I put clips on it because I was like, was it as good as I
38:59
remember? And then there was one, there's
39:00
a, there's a a bit, it's involving the Osiris where
39:02
they're attacking the, the base. The Rosinante is attacking the
39:06
base with the, with the Belters and fucking what's his name?
39:10
The Punisher. Yes, the the actor.
39:14
What's his name? Jane.
39:17
Thomas Jane Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they they in the even all
39:20
the Belters are in the, the, the drop ships and all that kind of.
39:23
And I just say fucking what a show.
39:26
With a haircut I wish I had the balls to have.
39:28
Yes, yeah. I just hear you guys.
39:32
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You guys are talking about it.
39:37
Just this show, not the hairline.
39:39
You guys were talking about it. And I was like, Oh yeah, I've
39:41
got to watch this. And then I put it on and like,
39:43
literally just that first scene of the first episode with the
39:46
girl. And I was like, fucking.
39:48
This is the most visually stunning television I've ever
39:53
seen in my life. Yeah, it looks good.
39:56
And then for some reason I just dropped off it for some reason.
39:59
Yeah, I didn't get to the very, very end either.
40:01
Yeah, yeah. I.
40:02
Did I got a few seasons in and then for some reason I've got
40:06
to, I've got to go back and then.
40:07
Is it? I think the thing that's a shame
40:09
about it is that, well, it's two things.
40:12
One was that the guy playing Alex was accused of sexually,
40:17
well-being inappropriate with fans and they had to, like,
40:19
murder his character in the show.
40:21
Yeah. And it sounded like it was.
40:23
He wasn't character it. Wasn't just an accusation as
40:25
well. He was kind of because he kind
40:27
of went So what? So what if I do that?
40:29
Yeah. So what if I so he was brutal.
40:31
Wasn't he brutally murdered and like.
40:33
Death murdered he just he just died like it so the Expanse is
40:38
set in a world where space travel is realistic as as we
40:41
know physics, right. So you can't, there's no
40:43
lightspeed or anything. And if you they, they just
40:47
accelerate right and then flip around and the gravity is just
40:51
from the acceleration. You can stand up in the ship if
40:54
it's accelerating at a speed that means it feels like gravity
40:57
inside the ship. So it's all that kind of stuff.
41:00
But anyway, if you you know you're jumping around at high G
41:03
or whatever in space, you can have like a brain aneurysm or
41:05
something because it's a legit. Force he just.
41:08
And then? I guess he.
41:10
Must have had him die. Cuts to a steel.
41:13
Yeah, it literally was a yeah, a scene from some other episode of
41:17
him just there and they put a bit of blood coming out of his
41:19
nose and then. He's dead.
41:23
He's dead. Even the Telltale Experience
41:26
game was actually quite good. Yeah, I've heard that it's about
41:29
drummer you. Fucking love the Telltale Games.
41:32
You love them? I love them.
41:33
They're great. Except.
41:34
She's a good character too actually.
41:36
I would be interested. The only one I played was the
41:38
Fable 1. Oh yeah.
41:42
And that was pretty good. Sequel to that, I just love
41:44
them. They're a good story and also
41:47
they're easy achievements, but they're a good story as well.
41:51
Yeah, play that. So yeah, I'm excited about this
41:55
game because I love The Expanse. Yeah.
41:59
Speaking of TV shows like The Expanse or not anything like the
42:04
expense last week I was saying that I I was watching
42:07
Detectorists and Luke, you had you had watched it already.
42:11
Have you watched? All season I haven't seen the
42:14
special, but the third season it's like.
42:17
Good. Yeah, perfectly fine, but didn't
42:19
need to be there. Yeah, agree.
42:21
Did you watch? So there's two specials?
42:23
Did you watch both specials or either?
42:25
Have you seen either of the specials?
42:27
I didn't know there were any specials.
42:29
So there's the three seasons 2 specials.
42:32
The 1st special is set between or it's not set between.
42:35
It was made between season 2 and season 3.
42:38
So a whole lot of the weird stuff that just is there in
42:41
season 3 that you're like, oh, OK, I guess he's got a
42:42
girlfriend now. He gets her in the special,
42:45
right? Oh, you know when he mentions
42:47
like my things in the museum? Yeah, that's the plot of the
42:51
special, right? So, which I didn't watch until
42:54
after I'd seen all three seasons.
42:57
So I went back. OK, I might go and watch that
42:59
then. It's just 1/2 an hour Christmas.
43:01
It's just like normal, just Christmas episode exercise.
43:04
Do do that sometimes with some shows.
43:06
He's a Christmas episode, England.
43:07
Loves British and I love it. Yeah, but then the second
43:12
special is feature length, an hour and a half.
43:15
It was made 2022 and I think it was the promo for that that I
43:21
saw that I went, Oh yeah, this show, I'll give it a watch.
43:24
Thinking that it was a new show and not realizing it's well over
43:28
10 years old. So it's set the right amount of
43:32
time later that you know, it's set 10 years after.
43:37
And I don't want to give a spoiler for what it's about, but
43:40
it's very it's very good. It's OK.
43:42
It's it's very worth worth watching.
43:45
Yeah, but if. You'd see what I mean about
43:47
season 3 like. Completely agree.
43:49
In this season 2, one of the characters, he's going to Africa
43:53
to become an archaeologist. And it was a nice ending point
43:58
that. Yeah.
44:00
And then and. The other character, his whole
44:03
thing was he wanted to find gold and he finally found it.
44:06
Like it really did feel like an ending.
44:08
And then they were like, do you want to do another season?
44:10
Here's your money? Money.
44:12
Yeah. Because then he's like, how was
44:15
Africa didn't work out? You know, like it's gotta.
44:21
Yeah. And that cottage you bought
44:23
burnt down. Oh, wait.
44:25
Maybe that's maybe that's in the special.
44:28
No. Oh.
44:29
There's cottage burnt down because they.
44:31
Buy yeah, that's pretty special. Yes, they do.
44:34
Sorry. But this is for the girls, not
44:37
there as well. Yeah, that's a real loss too.
44:40
She was. She's a great.
44:41
Character. But Matt, yeah, you got to watch
44:44
this. Yeah, it's good, Matt.
44:45
I think you'd like it. It's not like continual laugh
44:50
out loud, barely laugh funny, but it is continually light and
44:54
fun and nice. Yeah, it's just really good.
44:58
Yeah. I'll tell you, it's not light
45:00
and fun and nice. Well, it's got some moments of
45:02
levity. It's a movie that I watched
45:04
again and you guys presumably have not watched.
45:07
Yet I do have it bookmarked, but I haven't watched it.
45:09
OK, I watched Sinners again, Nate, you were right.
45:14
Yeah. Even better the second time,
45:16
honestly, because the things that there were a couple of
45:17
things that I was like, I'm not sure about the first time.
45:19
Nah, I loved it. Loved it.
45:21
OK, yeah, you'd gotten used to the fact that they were all
45:23
people of colour, and the second time you just let.
45:25
It go yeah, yeah, yeah. No, because actually it was
45:30
actually actually vampire stuff at the end that I was with.
45:34
Oh, OK, OK. I actually, I've, I when the
45:36
first time I saw it, I absolutely loved like the first
45:39
2/3 of it because actually the first third of it.
45:42
So I mean slight spoils like you know what this movie is about
45:45
really. Right.
45:46
More or less, yeah. A lot of people don't.
45:48
We watched, We invited people around to watch it.
45:50
They didn't know that it was a vampire movie and it would.
45:53
I love that. I wish I didn't know when I saw
45:55
it because Jenna didn't know. And she would.
45:57
Yeah. It was like a surprise.
45:58
All of a. Sudden I didn't know From Dusk
46:00
of Dawn was a vampire movie and that's the perfect way to watch
46:02
that fucking. It's like that, Yeah.
46:04
So I was, Yeah. And and I absolutely loved.
46:09
So the first third of it is just about these two brothers who go
46:12
come back from Chicago, back to Mississippi.
46:14
And they've been like working for Al Capone and they've got
46:17
all this money and they're like, we're going to start a Juke
46:19
joint, but they've like have to buy this building off these this
46:23
guy who's a clan member and stuff like that.
46:24
It's just all like, no, it's and it's just really interesting.
46:28
And like all these and just the characters are just super
46:30
interesting. They're all like, like slavery's
46:33
ended, but they all still work on the plantations because you
46:36
know what else you got to work to do?
46:37
Yeah, exactly. It's just great, like super
46:40
interesting, good characters and then and then vampires.
46:46
Amazing. It's great.
46:48
All right, I'll I might watch it one day.
46:50
I want to watch the movies again.
46:53
It's really good. Like I went and thought Michael
46:54
B Jordan placed two people, 02 twins.
46:58
Wait, who played? Oh, does he?
46:59
Yeah, that's right. Get him in there again.
47:02
Yeah, sorry. What did you say, Luke?
47:05
I went and saw thunderbolts. How?
47:08
How is it? We talked about fucking Florence
47:10
Pugh before and you didn't have. To say anything.
47:12
Yeah, I didn't. Yeah, just.
47:14
Well, it's Thunderbolts Star, because the whole idea.
47:20
Is asterisks, yeah. Asterisks.
47:22
Yeah, Because the reason why it's the asterisks is because at
47:26
the end of it, they become the New Avengers.
47:29
Yeah, of course they fucking do. So I think they've reset The
47:32
Avengers again. Yeah.
47:35
And it's sort. Of desperate to keep this train
47:37
going, aren't they? All the misfits.
47:39
You know the last one, The last Avengers movie was called End
47:42
Game, and it was a very definitive ending.
47:46
I what they all she should have done is ended it there and then
47:49
left a couple years and then started again with the new
47:52
story. Mind you, some good TV shows
47:54
came out of it, but man, I just, I'm sure I'll ask you whether it
47:59
was good or not. It looks pretty good, but I just
48:01
don't care. I can't bring myself to care.
48:04
Here's the thing, it's like one of the best rated movies that
48:06
they've had in a while, but also no one's gone to see it because
48:11
I think it's all it's a bit of the same like everyone's just
48:14
like. Yeah, plus it's all the people
48:18
from the TV shows. Why isn't this on TV?
48:21
Like I feel like if I have to leave my house to watch this, it
48:23
doesn't feel fair. Like it was OK, I didn't mind it
48:27
but. Because it's like Black Widows
48:29
people, too, but that wasn't in the movies.
48:31
That's right. Theaters, yeah.
48:33
Yeah. But wasn't that only because was
48:36
that? I think that was planned to be a
48:38
movie release, but then COVID. It was released during COVID.
48:41
Yes, and it was, well, it was that whole thing about yeah, was
48:45
it COVID I? Think they were counting their
48:46
blessings to be on that one, to be honest.
48:48
Yeah, Do people care about a Black Widow movie?
48:51
Well it was probably the best of the post end game.
48:56
Just Marvel movies. And it was the better the
49:00
argument about. Is it because, is it because
49:03
Black Widow isn't that interesting?
49:05
Or is it because she's a woman and it's like, well.
49:08
Yeah, because everyone was. Like hard to say at this point
49:10
because they didn't make interesting women characters
49:12
back in the day. Yeah, he didn't like Captain
49:13
Marvel because she was a woman. No, he didn't like that because
49:15
it was fucking boring. Yeah, yeah.
49:21
She wore a ninja. Yeah, that was OK.
49:24
And then when you saw that alien, he was like, G Day, it's
49:27
me. Like and Ben Mendelsohn.
49:30
Yeah, you can't see. Alexa, stop.
49:36
Yeah, no one's talking to you, Alexa.
49:38
That was weird. Sorry, did you say Ben
49:40
Mendelsohn? I think she was about to tell me
49:44
a fact that Ben Mendelsohn. Had David Harbour let it go, Had
49:47
David Harbour back as like her father and stuff.
49:50
And I love him. He's.
49:51
Great. I'm not going to the movies to
49:53
watch David Harbour. He's he's an online person.
49:57
I watch him on Netflix. I watch him on Disney Plus.
50:00
Well, don't they get to see soon?
50:02
Aren't they finally releasing the end of Stranger Things Soon?
50:05
I. Think it's not till the end of
50:06
the year? I think it's still months away,
50:08
isn't it? I hope, man, that last season
50:11
was very good. I hope the next one is.
50:13
All the seasons have been good. Yeah, well, half of Season 2 was
50:17
good. Oh, they yeah, when she went off
50:22
to the city. For me it goes one that was bad.
50:25
Yeah, but. Most second one and four, then
50:28
three. Them too.
50:31
Yeah. But I still like, I just, I
50:33
still like when he comes back from the camp and then they're
50:36
singing on the radio and that was just fun.
50:40
It's. Ridiculous.
50:43
Hopefully this doesn't get the conversation doesn't get weird,
50:45
but I am like so. Go on.
50:50
Molly Bobby Brown. She's of age now.
50:53
You. Think she's?
50:54
Sexy now, No, no, no, no, because I can't not see her as
50:59
as 11, but she. You tell me two weeks ago the
51:02
heavily Yeah, she's changed. Heavily sexualized currently.
51:07
Like I can't everywhere I don't. Think.
51:10
She's she's wearing badly anything and I'm like, when the
51:14
fuck did that happen? And it's and I feel weird about
51:16
it because to. Me.
51:17
She doesn't want us to think of her as a child anymore.
51:20
I mean, probably she's going to shift what we think.
51:22
I don't know if it's she's thinking that I think it's what
51:25
they're making her do. I don't know.
51:26
It doesn't seem. Like she's that's, that's what I
51:28
mean. Like if it's creepy to me in a
51:31
way that it's like I'm, and I hate it because I'm like, she's
51:34
a fucking grown woman now. She can do what she wants, but
51:36
for some reason something about but it feels creepy to me.
51:40
You know, like what's her name from the Wizard of Oz like?
51:46
Judy Garland. Julie, you know, like she was
51:48
forced to like to, you know, like do drugs or whatever to
51:52
participate in Hollywood and it I don't know, it doesn't, I
51:55
don't know, maybe I'm just inventing this, but this is.
51:57
The This is the best euphemism I've ever.
51:58
Heard do some. Drugs and participate in
52:01
Hollywood. It just doesn't vibe about Bobby
52:05
Brown that I don't like at the moment.
52:06
Doesn't feel like her, even the roles that she's actually
52:08
playing like Enola homes and stuff, like they're sort of.
52:12
Sure. Family friendly stuff but
52:14
they're still here. Me tits.
52:16
Yeah, but that's. I she could do what she wants,
52:19
obviously, but I just for some reason, yeah, something off
52:22
about it. It could just be show me her
52:25
breasts, she's welcome to. Yeah, I said that.
52:27
About fucking Florence Pugh. I'll say that about Millie,
52:30
Bobby. Brown, She's wanting to show.
52:33
No, but it's all in her social media, isn't it?
52:35
She's not in sexy movies. No, no, I know, I know.
52:38
But I, I just in my head, I think I can't get her out of
52:42
being a child in ATV show. So it's like I go see her and I
52:46
go, no, not you. I, I feel that way about I'm
52:51
like, I, I never found Drew Barrymore attractive even when
52:54
she was attractive because I was like, no, but she's the little
52:57
girl from ET like. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
53:00
That's, I think it maybe it's something to do with that.
53:02
It's just, yeah, I can't. But to be honest, I think that's
53:04
probably a healthy attitude to have well.
53:07
Thank you, I hope so. You know, as opposed to fuck.
53:10
I can't wait till she gets older.
53:12
You know, that's that's slightly less healthy.
53:14
No, no, she's not Natalie Portman.
53:15
Yeah, that's right. But I also know what you mean.
53:17
Like, it's not like. Don't tell Natalie Portman that
53:19
you you liked her. She does not want to hear about
53:22
it. She doesn't.
53:22
She's not fucking hearing about it.
53:24
I know that must be such a weird life.
53:26
I know every man is like, you know what I did when I was OK?
53:29
I don't want to hear it. Yeah, yeah.
53:31
You know when you were hot, when you were a little girl?
53:33
Yeah. Yes.
53:34
Thank you. I'm aware of that.
53:36
Have you ever considered how many men at the same time could
53:39
have been looking at a picture of you?
53:41
And you know, have you ever thought about that?
53:43
No. If we could have somehow
53:46
harnessed that energy of all of those men jerking off for you.
53:51
For you, Natalie. Oh, I had something, but it's
53:57
gone now. Oh, probably not what I should
54:00
say. Like with Billy Bob Brown.
54:05
It's not like it was with. Oh, what's her name?
54:08
I've lost her name now. Billy Ray Cyrus's kid.
54:14
Miley Cyrus, Yeah. She went like.
54:20
That's what I Yeah, yeah, maybe I'm well.
54:23
I I just, I hope she doesn't go down that road.
54:26
You know, maybe I'm just an old man.
54:27
Now, you know what's the opposite of that, though?
54:29
Because they're all Disney kids, right?
54:30
You know, my all of them. The opposite is Zendaya.
54:33
Because I was talking, we were watching some Zendaya woman.
54:36
Yeah. Well, and like, I was talking to
54:38
like, she's doing the trapeze. I think because Harper's
54:40
obsessed with the Greatest Showman, right?
54:42
She watches so often that we have to listen to the soundtrack
54:45
in the car. And she loves Zendaya.
54:47
She's got the Little Golden Book of Zendaya.
54:49
And but I was saying hi. I'm like, isn't it odd how
54:53
Zendaya is not sexy? And he's like, she's perfect.
54:57
I'm like, yeah, she's yeah, yeah, yeah.
54:59
But she's just sexy. No one's going Google Zendaya
55:03
Ass, you know, like no one thinks about it some.
55:06
Ways, I'm pretty sure Tom Holland I.
55:09
Don't mean I don't mean me, I don't mean me.
55:11
I'm sure someone's logged into my account.
55:13
Someone in this house? Someone with with with with this
55:19
search history I. Know what you mean?
55:22
She's classy in a way that some of them just.
55:25
Aren't not to say you can't be sexy.
55:26
And classy. But there's just something about
55:28
Zendaya. She's just ridden above.
55:33
Well, I also think there's a difference between like sexy,
55:36
classy and just slutty. Yeah.
55:41
Like from the other Disney girls you want?
55:43
To I'm sorry for bringing this topic.
55:45

56:08

56:11
You have to jerk off to her now to make to even all this out
56:14

56:23
Now. Now it's.
56:24
Weird. Now you've crossed.

56:29
Okay, that's. Not.
56:30
Old enough, man. You're 45?
56:34
No. I was just curious.
56:36
It's not good. What was Oh OK, Did you, do you
56:41
guys ever do you guys remember a fucking sitcom from the 80s
56:44
called Out of this world about a girl whose dad lived on another
56:47
planet and talked to her through a little glowing alien cube?
56:52
I do remember that. And she could freeze time by
56:54
going like this, and time would freeze because she had alien
56:57
powers. It's called out.
57:00
Of this you don't remember this. Yeah.
57:01
No, no, I do remember it. I.
57:02
Fucking loved it. And I was in love with this girl
57:06
Evie when I was like 10 and she was 14, right?
57:09
Like I was just in love with her, which was so beautiful.
57:12
I watched this like recap of the of the whole series on YouTube.
57:16
Somebody's done the other day and I'm like, oh, there's that
57:20
girl I loved. Oh, she's a little kid.
57:22
Oh, the mum's not bad though. That's where I ended my life.
57:29
That's funny. Oh, I had Burt Reynolds.
57:32
Has the voice uncredited of the of the crystal cube?
57:37
Yeah. There you go.
57:40
You know, I don't think I've ever seen this.
57:43
I thought it was amazing and if up until this week, if you'd
57:47
asked me was it any good, I would have said yeah, it's
57:49
great, it's really good. But now that I've.
57:51
Recapped. It it does not look at all.
57:55
For starters, she can freeze time right?
57:57
Do you know what visual effect they use to show freezing time?
58:00
Do you know what special effect they used?
58:02
Freezing everyone just for. Everyone just stood really
58:05
still. Yeah, of course.
58:06
Like at the end of police squad a bell would.
58:08
Yes, Do we? See get everyone just.
58:11
Yeah, yeah. Have you seen those outtakes of
58:15
Police Squad where it's just so funny that that just like
58:19
Driven? What's his fucking name?
58:20
I can't remember the actor's name, but.
58:24
Jesus Christ. Leslie Nielsen.
58:25
Nielsen Yeah, even he breaks his Stonewall.
58:29
Yeah, like fuck that show is. Good, I said.
58:31
There are some shows that I think you know, I was, I was
58:34
sending you guys Key and Peele's clips because YouTube was like,
58:37
remember Key and Peele? Yeah, how cool that shows.
58:39
YouTube now thinks that's all I want to watch because after I
58:42
watched that one I watched like 6 more.
58:44
Yeah, because it's so funny. And then you watch the bloopers
58:46
from Key and Peele and it's just it's just one of those things
58:49
that sunny, always sunny in Philadelphia, the office,
58:54
there's some shows that it's like you watch those believers
58:56
and you're like, that must be so much fun.
59:00
But also if you're a crew member.
59:03
You're professional. Fury, yeah.
59:05
Yeah, Yeah. Well, I think what they do and I
59:07
think I've heard them talk about this like they will feel what
59:10
we've recorded first, like what we've written first.
59:14
Yeah, yeah. And now?
59:18
No, but even the even what's written is sometimes very hard
59:21
to perform. Like if you look at I mean the
59:23
the the ones for extras in particular.
59:26
Are because of face. He just can't keep a straight
59:29
face if another funny actor is saying funny things to him.
59:32
Yeah, which must be fucking annoying because he but but the
59:37
the the dialogue that's written is so funny.
59:40
Yeah, but then you hear someone say, I mean, because we've done
59:42
it before, like sometimes definitely get into it.
59:44
Oh. Yeah, I'm the worst.
59:46
I can't say my own lines. Yeah, fucking.
59:48
I just laugh. And like something that's not
59:52
funny can set you off. It doesn't matter.
59:53
Yes, because it just gets in there like, but Oh yeah.
59:56
But those shows, like those shows in particular, like Sunny,
59:58
the Sunny bloopers, I'm just like, oh, fuck, they.
1:00:00
It must be just so much fun. And they're the ones that they
1:00:03
show. Yeah.
1:00:05
That's nothing that they're not. Good point.
1:00:09
I want them to film that fake episode they showed Frank and he
1:00:13
was like. I'm not going to do it.
1:00:15
Yes. Danny DeVito, a friend, gets
1:00:18
raped over and over. We get that the season comes out
1:00:23
very soon. That's exciting.
1:00:25
Very. Soon.
1:00:26
That was good. Last season was very good.
1:00:28
They had that Dennis episode that was fucking excellent.
1:00:32
Man, which was. I'm sorry, the T doesn't come
1:00:36
without the boba. Well, it does.
1:00:37
I can see the T there and I can see the boba there.
1:00:39
Just don't put those in that. I'm sorry the system doesn't
1:00:42
allow me to do that. Oh, the system doesn't allow you
1:00:44
to do that. It's so good.
1:00:47
Yeah, fuck me. What an actor.
1:00:50
What an actor. He went to Juilliard, Yeah.
1:00:54
And now he does this, Yeah. And I love, I love him for it.
1:00:57
Yeah, I wanted him to get an Oscar nom for BlackBerry.
1:01:01
I thought he was great, fucking terrific in that.
1:01:04
Well, let's think of watching something recently and like,
1:01:08
because he's the one that he wants out every now and again,
1:01:11
and that's why he did. Leave.
1:01:13
I think he wants to do something more serious.
1:01:14
Yeah. And I'm sure they were saying,
1:01:16
like, every time we're writing, we get to a point where we go,
1:01:20
we're done with this, we're quitting, and then they keep
1:01:23
going. Right, Matt, did you watch AP
1:01:27
Bio? No, I've got to watch.
1:01:30
That you've got to watch it. It's very good.
1:01:32
It's not sunny, but it may as well be.
1:01:37
Dennis. Yes, You know, OK.
1:01:38
Like, yeah, yeah, it's just. I think it's Dennis.
1:01:42
It got Four Seasons. I don't know how it got Four
1:01:44
Seasons because. Yeah, I didn't.
1:01:48
I'd never even heard of it until all the seasons were out.
1:01:53
It was, and the first season is aged.
1:01:56
Yeah, they started getting stubble by the end of it because
1:01:59
it's supposed to just be the next school year, but like, they
1:02:03
were all like 20 when they started it.
1:02:05
Like you have more stubble than I do after I shave.
1:02:09
Yeah, yeah. I watch it, it's on.
1:02:13
It's very good. It's very funny.
1:02:15
I should. It's just it's a sitcom.
1:02:17
It's more of a traditional sitcom than Always Sunny is.
1:02:22
And that was his. Like I'm going to go off and do
1:02:24
my own thing that's really open that then.
1:02:28
I mean, I'm glad he did go off and do his own thing, but I'm
1:02:30
also glad he went back. Back So is this the because
1:02:34
they're still got more seasons on the books, don't they?
1:02:37
Or is this the yeah officially? Greenlit.
1:02:39
No, no, I don't think like. 20 seasons, right?
1:02:41
Yeah. Yeah, I think there's at least
1:02:43
one or two more. Yeah, at least one might be two.
1:02:49
It's funny when you watch it from the start again, the IT the
1:02:52
tone has changed so much since the early days.
1:02:56
Yes. And it's been around so long
1:02:59
that it's one of those shows where there are things early on
1:03:02
where you're like, oh, like, how'd they get away with that?
1:03:04
And it's like, well, because that wasn't a problem back then.
1:03:06
Yeah, not. Yeah, and then I mean, there's
1:03:07
literally episodes now that they will never air again.
1:03:10
No, they've removed the ones, all the black folks, at least
1:03:13
the weapon ones. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:03:15
And they but. Still, they've still got the
1:03:16
first episode up which talks about people hanging from
1:03:19
rafters. Yes.
1:03:22
But I think. But the joke?
1:03:23
Is that? Everyone thinks he's racist so.
1:03:26
Yeah, yeah. And.
1:03:29
But just doing blackface. Is the ones with Carmen are
1:03:31
still there, which I was like, maybe no one's noticed.
1:03:36
Yeah, like that. There are certainly a large
1:03:39
group of people that would be upset by that, I would think I.
1:03:42
Was upset but also Mac was sleeping we thought but the.
1:03:47
Yeah, but The thing is, the fact that he ended up being gay
1:03:50
almost ruins that joke, because that joke was yes, she was so
1:03:54
hot that this. Fucking.
1:03:56
Alpha dude didn't even care that she had a Dick.
1:04:01
But there's a he's like that's, I mean, just the way that they,
1:04:05
I know that he's the butt of the joke, but he is very harsh about
1:04:08
it. He's literally ashamed of.
1:04:10
It he's like, no, no, no, you're beautiful.
1:04:11
I'm just disgusted in myself sleeping again.
1:04:22
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so good. You know what else you're going
1:04:26
to be disgusted in yourself participating in is the after
1:04:29
party. So let's head over there now.
