welcome to multiple
0:04
nerdgasm with your hosts Matt it's a bit
0:08
ay so I don't really understand it Luke is that a little sashwat penis Dan I
0:15
accidentally got soap in my urethra and occasionally Terry smallo maybe you wake
0:20
up in the middle of the night with a little sashwat pis inside of you
0:24
multiple nerdgasm your guide to all
0:28
things
0:32
nerdy so welcome to M nasm this will be
0:37
our last episode what will it and next one we'll be talking about Fallout for
0:42
the next probably 6 months all right it's pretty much what happened last time
0:48
you guys are going to get a jump on me too because I've heard that the the
0:51
shipment is delayed by a day here oh really yeah so I have to wait another
0:55
day which sucks cuz I'm actually off work tomorrow ah so I'm potentially
1:01
picking my copy up right as if we finish this I'll probably drive to EB and go to
1:05
the launch and get it m um and then not be able to play it you know because I'm
1:10
too busy but I'll have it yeah yeah not playing it is not the point mine's G I'm
1:15
just going to wait till midnight and then I'm going to start installing it
1:18
cuz I just got to buy digitally oh wait you could preload it
1:23
now yes but I'm part of the Xbox Rewards program oh with that you you get a
1:29
rebate on games you on anything you spend but it doesn't count for games
1:34
that are pre-ordered really it's really stupid it's in the fine print so I need
1:39
to wait till 12:01 go online buy it then
1:43
and the rebate um I'm about it goes up
1:47
to 10% I'm at 8% at the moment yeah right that's not bad so what $10 every
1:53
game so every 10th game you get is free yeah that's pretty good yeah that's
1:58
pretty good where you start off joining it you'll get like a cuz you're gold and
2:02
you start off at the lower level it's 2% right and then the more you spend the
2:07
higher it goes and you've spent a fortune I've spent a hell of a lot of
2:12
money right so what I mean if we're honest then I'm probably never going to
2:15
get to 10% no no uh 10% is uh thousands
2:21
and it's within a year how much a week do you spend on video games Luke
2:26
um depends uh really right though roughly it's probably about it's at
2:32
least $100 a week oh at least maybe up to 200 depending on the week that is a
2:37
lot it's less than I thought it's one AAA game or one major release game and
2:43
then right little other games that come out that of 10 $20 oh just talking about
2:47
games there's a game that came out this week that I'm very pissed off about
2:50
about the price of what's that there's a new Snoopy game right yeah okay it's is
2:56
it called good grief I can't remember what it's called but it's a little 2D
3:01
Sid scroller it looks horrible they're asking $60 for it
3:08
wow wow there is a Peanuts movie coming out it's a TI for that I believe yeah I
3:14
guess that's why they've got the audacity to choose charge 60 bucks for
3:18
it is it a live action Peanuts movie no no [ __ ] God no
3:25
no unless it stars Michael Sarah as Charlie Brown in which case I could kind
3:29
see that his head's not big enough yeah that's true well speaking of the Xbox um
3:35
we have bought a second Xbox welcome Club well it's a little different it's
3:41
not just one person's Xbox we have one each now and I wanted to update because
3:46
we've talked about this before uh and I wasn't sure if it would work uh and I've
3:51
confirmed that it does work and it's a bit fiddly you uh if we buy all the
3:56
games on my account we can both play them and at the same time and everything
4:00
and it works but what I have to do is I have to set Jenna's Xbox as my home Xbox
4:06
so all my licenses live on her Xbox and anybody who uses that can play it can
4:11
play them yes like anyone who uses that Xbox can play my games and then when I
4:16
play on my Xbox I'm logged in so I can
4:19
play my games mhm and so basically uh we
4:23
can buy um you know for example I bought
4:27
the Gears of War remake um and we could both play it we play co-op at the same
4:32
time on different Xboxes and it works great so hopefully that's not a flaw
4:36
that they're going to try and fix cuz we really like it and would like it to stay
4:41
working that way well I guess you just better hope that they don't listen to
4:43
the podcast I yeah I really I don't think they're going to fix it this is
4:47
something that's been around for since the Xbox one came out yeah this has been
4:52
a functionality so I think this is sort of their trade-off cuz remember they
4:55
were going to have that we could share games yeah I know well they do they do
4:59
kind of detail the functionality on their website so I mean it's not I'm not
5:04
cheating too too badly you know what I mean it's like and also I could get the
5:09
games for like about the same price as I'm going to pay for them this way
5:13
anyway so yeah whatever going buy them online and buy one copy for what $100
5:19
whereas if you're going to buy two copies you'd go to JB and pick them up
5:23
for $6 each right so I'm saving $20 yeah so but it yeah it works really well cuz
5:29
you know with Battlefront coming out obviously we're going to want to play
5:31
with everybody so we figured it's time yep awesome can't wait can you play
5:35
co-op on Battlefront on the one machine
5:38
yes I well we played the beta uh split
5:43
screen uh so I I I I guess you can yeah yeah if they had it in the beta it's
5:47
definitely going to be the full retail version yeah I can't remember if we
5:51
played online that way or have we just played the you know the kind of horde
5:56
mode yeah um map they had so so yeah I mean I think you can see how see how you
6:03
go I mean you're going to buy it anyway aren't you so just well yeah I'm going
6:06
to buy it but I only have one Xbox no no no that's what I mean but I mean like if
6:09
I say yes and then you can't you're not going to hate me because you were going
6:12
to buy it anyway I'm not buy it because uh yeah because of that yeah correct
6:18
yeah I'm actually looking forward to I actually get to play it on this Thursday
6:22
I can start playing it what do you mean um it comes out next Thursday on the
6:26
19th of November so that explains nothing yeah in fact that explains less Star Wars
6:32
comes out on the 19th of November I'm going to be able to play it from the
6:35
12th of November because I'm part of the
6:39
EA I what it's called the you got the membership thing the membership thing it
6:44
cost me 40 bucks a year and I get games all a week early at a 10%
6:48
discount huh also get a 10-hour trial
6:52
with all their games interesting so yeah if you sign up for it you could play I'm
6:58
actually playing NE the speed at the moment which I haven't paid for I've got
7:01
the full game I'm getting achievements M and I'm just playing a 10-hour trial
7:07
you've beat the system you don't even need to pay for
7:12
games anymore cuz all you care about is the achievements really isn't it I can
7:15
finish a game in 10 hours I bet you could
7:20
yeah that's it's only going to convince him to make the games longer yeah this
7:25
game's got to be longer than 10 hours at least otherwise Luke's not going to buy
7:28
it oh they they've got to change this thing cuz like 10 hours it's it's a long
7:33
time for some of the games that they're putting out like um FIFA and
7:38
NHL I've got them all I'm never going to play any of those games for 10 hours
7:43
yeah but they've got a strategy I just don't know what it is is your internet
7:47
where you are good enough for digital games Dan to download them for
7:52
downloading yeah don't you have like some of the best internet in the world
7:56
yeah it's not bad better than the [ __ ] you got except that you guys have got
7:59
NBN now my my NBN I swear the I don't know whether they do this on purpose
8:04
when the NBN came in here like literally into my apartment it was amazing and
8:09
then I swear to God it's just slowly getting worse and worse over time and I
8:13
don't know if they're doing it on purpose so that at first i' be like wow
8:15
it's amazing and they hoping I wouldn't notice but like it is not as fast as it
8:21
was originally I'm pretty sure it's just more people signing up yeah you're
8:25
probably right but it's still disappointing cuz like the day that they
8:30
put it on I was like oh my God this is amazing and then now sometimes I'm like
8:35
for [ __ ] sake like why can't I load Facebook I think my Wi-Fi might have
8:40
more to do with it in some cases I forget Wi-Fi the devil well should we
8:47
move on to some news yeah any devil
8:51
news I don't know if we do we do have some Vladimir lenon
8:56
news do we have a jingle for Vladimir lenon news
9:01
uh almost certainly not however can it sound like a John lenon
9:08
song all right imagine
9:15
communism it's easy if you
9:22
try imagine all the
9:27
people share bring all that money and food and
9:33
everything Lon well may you rest in
9:39
peace which [Laughter]
9:43
one do do you guys ever ever have this situation where you encounter somebody
9:49
that really idolizes somebody and you're just not sure why but there a smart
9:53
enough person that you think have I just completely
9:56
misunderstood this person like I can two two reasons for this number one on the
10:02
System of a Down album I think it's toxicity there's a little thing that's
10:05
dedicated to Charles Manson and I was like dedicated to Charles Manson like is
10:11
that a thing of like really intelligent people like System of a Down idolizing
10:17
Charles Manson like that's weird right yeah yeah I
10:22
mean yeah yeah I mean I could I could guess where maybe that comes from but I
10:28
I don't know for sure I would say maybe they think that he was kind of um done a
10:34
bit wrong and he's not as because he's crazy basically sure and so maybe they
10:39
put more on him than he deserved to have put on him uhhuh uhhuh uhhuh uhhuh
10:43
that's was on to something in terms of you know his hatred for the celebrity
10:47
culture and things like that but I think right right just generally speaking
10:51
idolizing him is probably not you know well it's the same way that so many
10:55
people idolize Ned Kelly yeah well that's true too and um sheay gavara yeah
11:00
yeah and Jesus Christ but the other one I was in a
11:05
friend's car and he had a picture of chairman ma right maong hanging from his
11:12
rearview mirror and I was like what the
11:15
[ __ ] man like did you ask I I said is that chairman Ma and he's like
11:22
absolutely and I just didn't want to get into it well
11:26
spotted yeah oh you like M yeah
11:29
too obviously yeah this particular um I
11:35
guess idolization of a uh of somebody has been improved in my opinion yeah
11:39
from a mass murderer to some kind of
11:44
just Galactic serial killer I guess you'd say so this is uh this is a statue
11:50
of Vladimir lenen mhm and uh they've
11:54
converted it into Darth Vader yeah uh and it's they've done a pretty good job
12:00
so this is in Ukraine right and they're actually in the process of tearing down
12:04
a lot of their old communist era statues uh but one of these uh artists from the
12:10
region has said [ __ ] that let's not uh not tear them down let's just make them
12:14
better and he saves a lot of money improve oh I also like this they're also
12:18
turning into a Wi-Fi hotspot that's great even
12:23
though I mean we did talk about that statue of Nicola Tesla that was turned
12:27
into a wireless Hotpot that's kind of the perfect usage yeah
12:31
exactly right except that you have to stand within about 5 m of it and that
12:36
kind of goes against everything Tesla was trying to organize you know what I mean so
12:41
there's a little bit of irony you can kind of turn anything into a wireless
12:44
hot spot really it doesn't have to be a statue of somebody thing where a few
12:48
years ago they were trying to get homeless people to be wireless
12:52
hotspots I hope that's true that is great I got to see if I could find I
12:57
think there was they could just use it to track them I guess it's probably a
13:01
ploy why would they need homeless people to be Wi-Fi hotspots luk just put it on
13:05
the ground don't ask questions all right just go with it just put it in a
13:10
bin yeah oh my God yep it was a couple of years ago why homeless people in
13:16
Austin Texas um I need to know why what is the difference between putting it
13:21
making a homeless person carry a Wi-Fi router around or just putting it
13:27
somewhere you say carry maybe it's
13:31
like implant yeah but still what is the benefit of that versus what it's
13:36
stationary I mean if they W off you're
13:39
[ __ ] exactly it was basically they G
13:43
the homeless people to be Wi-Fi devices and they were able to let people connect
13:49
to it in exchange for donations you ask them for the password
13:55
yes I love the way Luke words it as well unless that's from the article Luke says
13:58
they going to ask homeless people to be wireless hot
14:04
spots yeah come on buddy that's just
14:07
me yeah for your own good you can charge people yeah sounds dangerous if you ask
14:13
me yeah it's dangerous because they just be using it to check their own Facebook
14:17
you know what I mean ex who knows what that's going to do to their homeless
14:22
bodies oh here's something I think we need to discuss yeah M how is Candy
14:28
Crush more than Star Wars you know what it's funny that's the exact analogy that
14:32
I made when I first heard this cuz Star Wars was sold to Disney for what three
14:38
four billion four or yeah $4 billion which I thought was wow that's a lot of
14:43
money they're going to make that back as well yeah but Activision has bought
14:49
Candy Crush which I didn't even know people still played oh yeah for almost $1
14:55
billion well they bought King I guess which is the company that makes it and I
15:01
mean I mean that that's their biggest uh earner but they make quite a
15:05
lot of mobile games and I think um like
15:11
they make a [ __ ] ton of money right from people who play these games like they've
15:16
got Candy Crush Saga they've got Candy Crush Soda Saga uh and then
15:21
like billi plus out of this though Farm Heroes they just basically they just
15:26
[ __ ] out little mobile heroes that sounds like the shittest game ever they
15:31
just they just like you know produce these turd games that people pay like I
15:37
don't know so I guess it's all microtransactions right so the game is
15:42
free but if you want to progress in it you can either be patient or you can
15:46
spend a bit of money and get an advantage of buy like unlock the next
15:49
level or the next area or whatever and I don't know people go a lot of money it's
15:53
just like just enough that you go just a little sneaky yeah but they spend they
15:58
spend aot lot of money researching this stuff on like how to make it like the
16:03
the right amount of addictive yep yeah so and current they have currently they
16:09
have 474 million monthly active users yeah so if everybody spends a dollar a
16:15
month World of Warcraft has what 2 million like that's just crazy it's a
16:20
lot of money but yeah I just got a big shock when I saw that's well even
16:24
Minecraft Minecraft which is a huge game was only two two what 2.5 billion yeah
16:31
but are people spending money on Minecraft anymore or did everyone
16:34
already buy it well that's what I said when they brought it it was the best
16:37
time for them to sell cuz yeah everyone already owns it yeah that's that's right
16:41
so I'm not sure Microsoft made the best decision I mean I'm sure they know what
16:46
they're doing but well I do like the fact that on they'd have to have it cuz
16:49
it's now Microsoft when people load it up on their PlayStations and jump up the
16:53
Microsoft logo that's going to be something for him yeah I suppose does my
16:57
I got Windows 10 here did this come with Minecraft instead of Sol Minecraft are you
17:04
serious um well I I know I got it but um I don't know if you had to get it by a
17:09
certain date or something it doesn't have Minecraft well I mean I already
17:12
bought Minecraft so it doesn't matter but it's not what is Minecraft Windows
17:17
10 beta mhm right I also have
17:22
Soler oh good did I tell you guys about when I was at a dinner party with some
17:27
friends and their 10-year-old kid was playing on his tablet and I looked over
17:31
his shoulder and I said oh Minecraft and he looked at me like with this horrified
17:36
and untrusting expression and said how do you know about
17:41
[Laughter] Minecraft uh oh yeah you should have
17:48
said I'm Notch that fat guy is an actor I so wish
17:53
we had time to play Minecraft I know yeah you I really did like when we had
17:58
that world for a little that was so good maybe we could play it on the expone
18:01
instead just checking in yeah you just come back after a little while and just
18:04
people have just built all this stuff and you just wander around somebody's
18:08
new thing and they just open up all their their boxes and just take their
18:13
[ __ ] I can set up the server again no worries if you guys want to play it we
18:17
tried to do that a second time and it didn't work yeah yeah I know I know well
18:22
let's have a think about it um we talked about a company that's that's making
18:27
money uh a company that's doing the opposite um at the moment is uh Warner
18:32
Brothers and I guess Rock Steady um they are refunding everybody not everybody
18:39
refunding people who want uh who purchased the PC version of Arkham
18:42
Knight cuz they finally uh after the you know the debacle with all the bugs and
18:48
everything when they released it they finally put it back up after they tried
18:53
to have a go fixing it and apparently it's still [ __ ] so they are offering
18:59
uh refunds I want to know how that game was ever released so that's it there
19:03
just won't be a PC version of this game well there is a PC version it's out
19:08
there people can still buy it yeah but if if you buy it and then you don't
19:13
enjoy playing a game that's buggy as all [ __ ] then they'll refund you which is
19:17
but even if you buy it now knowing yep that there's this like it's buggy what
19:21
it is some people are actually able to play it fine I've got a guy who I work
19:25
with his computer is just just on the minimum requirements and he says he runs
19:29
it fine yeah I'm sure it must it I mean there's no way that it could be that
19:33
obviously broken and they're like no it looks pretty good to me no you know it
19:37
was atrocious and even some of the testers came out and went we told these
19:41
guys months ago that this game is not ready mind then we're shipping it well
19:47
apparently it's because apparently the Xbox version and the the PlayStation
19:51
versions are both fine is that right y yeah so but then they had uh they
19:56
outsourced um the port of the PC version to another company cuz I guess they
20:01
thought that would be easy um it's a company of like 12 guys yeah and they
20:06
just [ __ ] it they just didn't do a very good job for some reason I don't
20:10
think I don't think they so much as [ __ ] it is I think they didn't have
20:13
the resources right okay to do it oh fair enough cuz they had what that's a
20:19
way it well yeah this would have they would have had hundreds of people making
20:23
this game and then they've gone we'll just pull up the PC here dozen guys you
20:27
just make it work this is one of those games that I was
20:32
really really excited about it and then I thought I got a lot of games to play
20:36
so I'm not going to buy it when it comes out and I still haven't bought it and I
20:39
actually kind of forgot about it until I saw this article the other day so it's a
20:43
really good game you should get it yeah just don't get well no I'm not going to
20:47
because i' I've like I said I just bought a new Xbox and it came with rise
20:51
of the Tomb Raider and full at 4 so I'm good for the rest of the year I think oh
20:55
yeah definitely wait you bought an Xbox that comes with Tomb Raider and Fallout
20:59
4 yeah it's like the best bundle Xbox ever but you clearly don't have those
21:05
games in your position I have rise of the Tomb Raider
21:10
pre-installed and it will unlock in 2 hours wow and uh I pick up my copy of
21:15
Fallout after after this like in 3 minutes um EB will open and I could go
21:21
and get it but I have to wait till midnight so I don't know I might go I
21:24
might not we'll see how I feel like tell you what that was a great deal $500 oh
21:28
yeah I know yeah those their games you're going to get anyway so you basically got an Xbox
21:33
One for $300 that's right yeah so listeners the the deal if you're looking
21:37
for an Xbox the deal I got was rise with the Tomb Raider and Fallout 4 um the one
21:43
tab Xbox one uh 500 bucks Yeah so basically if yeah like I like you said
21:48
the games are 100 bucks each so if you do the maths it's kind of like paying
21:51
300 bucks for the console cuz I was going to buy them anyway the games yeah
21:56
pretty good deal very good deal yes it's just a shame that Fallout Falls not
22:03
digital for you yeah well it's well Jen's not really a fan of it though is
22:07
she no that's right it's single player anyway so yeah know but yeah but if you
22:11
both you could still both play at the same time yeah true we'll see yeah I
22:17
said she's not she's not really into it so that's fine um did you guys watch the warcraft
22:23
trailer yeah I did um a lot of people are really excited about it
22:29
really yeah uh online in particular yeah people seem to be keen on it I I yeah
22:35
didn't really grab me at all look I mean to be honest looks pretty
22:42
ordinary I guess I do I didn't realize until today um that apparently it's not
22:48
it's set during the time of the original Warcraft game like it's not World of
22:53
Warcraft or any of that stuff it's like way before humans yeah so um I mean
22:59
that's fine it does remove a bit of like coolness cuz I think it would have been
23:05
really probably really really difficult to do but really more interesting to
23:09
have some of the other those other races in in the in the movie but yeah I don't know
23:15
yeah didn't didn't grab me it just seemed a
23:19
little crappy quite honestly
23:24
like I mean it certainly seemed big budget you know like yeah lot of special
23:30
effects and stuff well I guess it looked it looked like a cut scene from from one
23:36
of the blizzard games cuz they do these amazing CG cut scenes and it just looked
23:42
like one of them and then occasionally it would cut and I'd go oh are they real
23:45
humans oh they are okay like yeah it's the dude from vik just having a look cuz
23:50
I thought I thought it might have been that it's there's a whole universe cuz I
23:54
know with Halo like you guys don't really like Halo but I read the books
23:57
and everything so I'm really into it so I thought that maybe there's like a lot
24:00
of Warcraft books but there's not really there's more World of Warcraft the
24:06
warcraft series there only four books which isn't a lot for how long was
24:10
Warcraft like 20 years ago now Jesus don't say that really yeah you're
24:16
probably right it'll have to be close too that explains why I don't remember a
24:20
damn thing about it I actually finished the first Warcraft played all the way
24:23
through it when I was a kid yeah so did I I Lovecraft didn't finish any of the
24:26
others but the uh the first one I played through yeah I thought I stopped playing
24:31
Warcraft at Warcraft 3 never got into Starcraft and never got into wow I got
24:37
into wow a bit wow was fun but I didn't follow the story at all I couldn't tell
24:39
you never played it not even once I would get addicted to it and that would be
24:45
bad yeah well you didn't get addicted to
24:49
um the Star Wars Old Republic that was because they kept changing my character
24:54
into different services and I had to keep up thinking new names and got sick
24:57
of it ah I consider jumping back in to check that out SP with Rando Rando yeah
25:03
I'm sure you never get a better name than that no they deleted him after the
25:06
beta finished every now and again I do load it up just to update it but I don't
25:12
actually play it I don't know why I keep doing it yeah so I have that and I have
25:17
um Guild Wars 2 as well which is that guild war Guild Wars 2 is actually
25:20
really great that was a fun game yeah so I mean I keep forgetting that exists cuz
25:27
my PC wasn't working but yeah that was a great game every now and again I get
25:30
updates to say they're releasing stuff for Guild Wars I like that cuz I could play that
25:35
by myself yeah it was a little bit more forgiving than Star Wars was when I was
25:40
playing by myself instead of playing with other people like it wants you to
25:44
you just don't like playing with other people do you I don't like playing with
25:47
people I don't
25:50
know interesting is it yeah no it's not probably pretty probably no it's
25:57
probably pretty normal look how probably love to play with you guys a which we're
26:01
going to start doing soon that's right Battlefront that's why we have another
26:04
Xbox Dan did you go see Specta I did and I don't want to talk about it until
26:09
you've seen it oh really is that out it is out oh out this week [ __ ] see I was
26:15
going to go see it tomorrow but then I decided I wasn't going to go see it
26:18
tomorrow because I've got too much stuff on but I'll see if I can I can go before
26:24
it's not it's not something that we like have to talk about right now so if you
26:27
don't see it for a week or to we can just talk about it when you see it okay
26:31
yeah all right I do can I ask that uh yes you want to say no I did like it but
26:38
that's all I'll say all right all right well we won't talk about that then but I
26:43
did want to mention this article because it it's pretty hilarious about a man who
26:47
crashed the world premiere of Spectre yeah using James Bond style tactics he
26:52
apparently um he printed a a picture of somebody's tickets
26:58
um that they posted on Twitter or somewhere on social media uh he he took
27:03
the the picture and he he managed to create duplicate tickets and then um
27:08
snuck into the premere yeah and this has been happening a lot lately because I
27:12
remember somebody uh post for a selfie with their Melbourne Cup winning ticket
27:19
last week and put it on Facebook and somebody else just printed it out went
27:24
in and collected the winnings really yeah so if you're going
27:28
to put something online a picture of you with a ticket to something just make
27:32
sure it doesn't have the barcode basically see I'm always paranoid about
27:35
that with things like pack passes and and stuff like that like whenever my my
27:38
convention passes come I'm like oh I should post a photo oh wait can I cuz
27:43
they've got numbers and things on them I don't know if they're like yeah top
27:46
secret is that how the scalp cuz I remember they did say once that um It's
27:51
tricky because as soon as they post the picture of what it looks like for this
27:54
year the scalpers start designing the fake ones you know right
27:59
so with packs in particular apparently that's a huge issue in um in this in I
28:03
don't know if it happens here I don't think bu of an issue here CU they still
28:07
didn't sell out yeah but particularly P pack East I know they have big problems
28:11
with it people create fake ones and um and it's yeah you can't it's
28:16
a hard thing to fight because you do need to have that be able to walk in and
28:19
out as you feel like with those things so you have to have a quick in and out
28:24
no pass I don't know how they can beat that or how about people just stop be
28:28
dicks no pass outs it's 3 days you're inside you're in the [ __ ] Convention
28:32
Center for 3 days don't pretend you wouldn't do that Matt I would if I had
28:37
to yeah no you would I would if I had I get upset when they ask me to leave I'd love
28:42
it yeah we did get kicked out a couple times this year because it got late not
28:47
cuz we were doing anything wrong yeah well speaking of doing things
28:54
wrong okay do you want to hear the continuing story of Barnaby Wellington
29:00
we ever tempting fate episode 5 play you
29:05
want to hear it all right for those who
29:09
don't know um this is a ongoing series it's um completely original there's
29:14
nothing like this on the internet anywhere you would never have heard a
29:17
podcast uh that is similar to this in any way AB as far as we know uh our
29:22
lawyers told me I should say as far as we know yeah I don't know I think that's
29:26
legally that covers here we go yeah attempting fate episode
29:35
5 previously on tempting Fate on April 11th
29:41
1995 the wife of a famed Australian tour guide disappeared about a month later her body
29:48
was found in a cave in the nearby Bush the cause of death was partial
29:53
strangulation and a gunshot wound to the back
29:58
this week I was fortunate enough to speak with one of the key Witnesses in
30:01
the case against Barnaby Wellington the following is an excerpt from my
30:05
interview with the nephew of Terry paty smallo the boy who made the gruesome
30:11
discovery of darling Small's moist decaying body in a cave deep within the
30:16
pilous scrub 1 month after her disappearance thanks for agreeing to
30:23
speak with me Psy no worries I'm really sorry to have to ask ask these kinds of questions
30:29
but could you tell us the events that led up to your discovery of Darlene well
30:35
it was a long time ago but I'll give it a red out go if I recall correctly I was
30:40
covering for Uncle Terry by taking some tourists out to the local Squatch watch
30:44
hotspots he gave me an old gym bag to use his bait he said it was full of piss
30:49
covered deer meat he said to leave it outside the entrance to a Cave System
30:53
where he'd heard Squatch M about a month back he said definitely don't open the
30:57
bag cuz to be overpowering and we didn't want two H bag squat raping and
31:01
murdering a Bus full of tourists that would be so awful has that happened
31:07
before n n never a bus fall anyway I ditched the bag inside the entrance and
31:13
sat back to see if we could catch a glimpse of a little Scorch pois after a
31:16
few minutes me and the tourists were going to be Nancy so I went into the
31:19
cave to see if we could flush out that's um that's that's when I found Annie
31:26
do who who's Annie darlo is that a a
31:31
Sasquatch no num nuts that's me auntie
31:35
darlo Darlene dolls Dy Dy dingleberries
31:39
oh Darlene small shoe yeah that's what I
31:43
said anyway she was kind of laid out
31:48
naked it would have been pretty hot except I think a squat going to had a
31:52
bit of a nibble on her yeah poor any dollar
31:59
anyway we H tailed it back Co the coppers and they headed on down to
32:02
investigate the police investigation revealed the cause of death to be
32:06
strangulation and a gunshot wound one month earlier there was no evidence
32:10
linking anyone to the body however there was one damning piece linking someone to
32:16
the crime scene this turned out to be the key piece of evidence in the case
32:20
against Barnaby Wellington Barnaby how else do you
32:24
explain it I'm afraid I really have no idea they went missing from my car but
32:30
they were found just outside the entrance to the cave where Darlene was
32:33
found do you deny they were yours no of course
32:38
not they were definitely my gym clothes I just don't have an explanation for how
32:42
my bag got there next time on tempting fate a surprising development that could
32:49
support Barnaby's limping case W the plot
32:55
thickens yeah sure does yeah I
33:00
think there's going to be some kind of Break In the case soon it's got to be
33:05
yeah I've said it before I just I don't think they've got an
33:11
ending I think he did it I think that's the problem yeah I think he did it
33:15
that's right all signs point to yes Terry's a dick but come on speaking of
33:21
Dick speaking of any any dick news I don't know well I mean any dick news
33:26
there's uh some celebrity [ __ ] news that I just kind of snickered at during
33:31
the week yeah um Prince admitted on live
33:38
TV that he [ __ ] Boy George no other way around Boy George admitted he'
33:42
[ __ ] Prince how did that come up so might I ask so
33:47
um Boy George is one of the hosts of The Voice which I think is like a kind of
33:54
idol type competition show and one of
33:59
the other judges Paloma Faith said uh oh
34:04
yeah name drop a bit you know I uh performed once with Prince and Boy
34:09
George Went I [ __ ] Prince [Laughter]
34:14
so oh man yeah but is anyone really shocked no one was shocked but uh
34:20
apparently the network did not like that being said during their Prime Time live
34:26
feed so yep I could maybe see that the
34:31
use of words yeah well actually you know to be honest I was paraphrasing so he
34:36
probably didn't go oh [ __ ] Prince I don't recognize any of these
34:43
people no but I mean we're not really the target audience for this oh will I
34:48
am okay I've heard of that person um Ricky Wilson don't know who
34:53
that is Palma Faith don't know who that is Boy George Boy George is though right
34:57
yeah of course of course I know who he is but he doesn't I didn't know he looked like
35:03
that yeah like if he showed me a picture and went who's that I would not be able
35:08
to go Boy George yeah that's cuz other than being on The Voice he hasn't been
35:13
on TV for 30 years he's got a very big hat what's with the big hats lately yeah
35:17
there's a lot of big hats I've seen farel wearing those too what's with that
35:20
yeah I don't Luke I think maybe they've overshot you now yeah they're trying too
35:25
hard you used to be ahead of the head of the Curve right but they've just gone
35:29
they've just taken that and run with it and now people got these giant hats do
35:32
you have a giant hat um just my Indiana Jones hat N I see but it's not quite
35:37
that style no we've all got one about that you know about that I've been
35:41
thinking about going to a top hat you're going what to Top Hat or maybe a bowler
35:46
well I've got a top hat and a bowler hat Matt's got a top hat yeah Jack the Hat
35:50
crazy whenever we play White Chapel no I don't like crazy I just like think I'm
35:54
waiting for Matt to get a uh an old timey Sherlock Holmes hat that's that's
35:58
what I think ah I don't bet it suit me I've just decided I'm buying myself a
36:01
bower do it all right a bowler you don't want a bowler I want a bowler so you put
36:07
that hat on you'll be bleeding from every
36:09
orifice Jesus Oh a bowler and that's a
36:14
threat de what size hat do you wear Luke I'm not sure do you have a tiny that's
36:20
why I'm going to I'm trying to find a place that sells hats so I can go in and
36:23
find out giant hats cuz if if you're the same size head as me you just go and let
36:28
yourself into my store room and you're going to have my bowl up all right I'll
36:32
go get measured up and I'll find out I'm going to guess that he's not the same
36:35
size head as you no probably not I'm a 55 if anyone's curious or if anyone's
36:41
planning to buy me a hat I remember years ago I was a 57 I believe but hold
36:48
off audience right your head probably hasn't shrunk or gr just let me double
36:53
check this before anyone goes out and buys me one all right everyone Cal down
36:58
stop buying a hat for Luke right now he will put credit cards away wait till he
37:02
hands out the correct details I'll have that size for you in 2 weeks cuz I can't
37:07
get it for next week cuz I'm not leaving the house for a week you literally not
37:10
leaving the house nope he's not leaving the Wasteland fall comes out 12:01 are
37:16
you going to bathe oh I'm I'm going to be still got the shower inside that's
37:21
okay all right just there's no reason for me to leave do you have an Xbox
37:25
installed in the shower no unfortun I'm not allowed to buy another one no but
37:30
somebody could just bring out a a damp cloth you know sponge you down while
37:35
you're playing the Xbox it might get to that don't give him
37:40
ideas we won't be allowed around there anymore if we say things like that yeah
37:44
that's true we don't want to encourage that kind of behavior and I'm not far away from
37:49
it so you get Xbox games early or you get EA games early do you get to see do
37:54
you get to watch Star Wars early no which sucks is there a way I could see
37:59
it there's a couple of situations where you can watch Star Wars early yeah
38:03
there's a few few ways have come up in the past few weeks can make the film if
38:07
you know for sure you'll be dead before it comes out make the film is one of
38:12
them what what's one of the other ways yeah if you're going to die before the
38:16
release you get to see it yep which is that's pretty good yeah that I like that
38:21
that's nice that was nice and I did see that everyone was # Let Daniel see Star
38:25
Wars and I was like yeah I can get behind that
38:29
right behind that yeah non-specific very uh but also if you're on a plane from
38:35
New York to Paris uh and you're on that plane during
38:41
the time that it's released you get to just watch it from the moment the plane
38:46
takes off is that what this is yeah I think so I think the reason that they
38:51
get to see it on the flight early is is something to do with time zones no no no
38:57
it's not time zones it's crazy it's cuz that's what I thought but then I thought
39:01
wow that's weird that they'll be showing on a plane so
39:05
early um having a look no they actually
39:08
get to go see in a cinema wait what they buy tickets to go on this plane they fly
39:15
there's like four flights to doing they fly to their destination they get
39:19
tickets and they go to a cinema and watch it so they don't watch it on the
39:23
plane no like that's the first first thing I thought but yeah no they
39:29
actually get to go and watch it huh wow
39:33
all right then fine so whereabouts oh it's hang on I can see there's a few of them
39:40
huh these aren't the special Star Wars themed plans are they no cuz they're
39:46
though they're Air Asia right it says registered Travelers will be given free
39:50
tickets and a free ride in a dedicated Star Wars shuttle to a cinema I assume
39:55
that means shuttle bus not actually a shuttle uh to a cinema to watch the film
39:59
the day after landing in Paris well oh okay so they're all flights to Paris so
40:03
it's somewhere in Paris all right do you guys want to go to Paris yeah let's go
40:06
to Paris where do we have to fly from uh
40:09
La New York uh and another one from New York sorry San Francisco LA or New
40:16
York okay yeah one of those so I'm guessing La would be the easiest for us
40:21
been to all of those places so we can all go back yep I think this is just a
40:27
really strange promotion it's I mean what are they try
40:31
are they trying to sell flights like they having trouble selling flights to
40:35
Paris so they're like let's give people Star Wars I mean it would almost make
40:38
sense if the other way around if they knew you were going to be on a plane
40:43
when it came out and they showed it to you first so that you wouldn't miss out
40:48
yeah that makes more me even then it's not like you can never see it no right
40:54
and it's not like everyone's going to go see it at midnight
40:57
so yeah I don't know it just seems they would have had to have paid a fortune for
41:02
this but I'm I'm thinking we're just seeing what's happening with Disney
41:07
taking over weird maybe
41:11
stunts it just you guys got your midnight tickets of course doesn't go on
41:16
sale here yet really yeah they don't let you book this far in advance I've got
41:21
two tickets to see it on the first day you're going to see it twice on the
41:24
first day two for you two for me yeah I see it at midnight and then I'm going to
41:28
see it later in the day and then I'm also seeing it later in the week as well
41:31
I'm going to see it at midnight and then if it's good maybe I'll go again yeah
41:36
that's right I'm not I'm not holding my breath I'm not that confident yet I'm
41:41
excited I'm very excited get becoming more and more excited have you guys did
41:44
you guys watch the Japanese trailer by the way [ __ ] yes did um can I just ask
41:49
where is Luke um Luke he's here with
41:53
us are you having one of those weird body dis your things again yeah stop
41:58
talking about yourself in the third person it's just creepy where is Luke
42:03
Skywalker somebody did ask JJ that and he said there's a very good reason why
42:09
he's not in the trailer there were too many children on set I think I think
42:14
he's dead he's not he's in the film yeah but he could be a force ghost I think
42:20
he's a ghost I think he's a force ghost all right but all all my other
42:26
theories he's evil okay all right yeah yeah it's got to be something they don't
42:31
want to hint at yeah right he's definitely not running around with the
42:34
light listeners I'm sorry if either of those things is true and you're
42:37
disappointed that Luke spoiled them for you I'm not no I didn't think so didn't think
42:43
so it happens leading on from oh we didn't play the Star Wars news
42:48
[Music]
42:56
jingle
43:02
I just really like that jingle yeah it's a good jingle I had a dream this week
43:07
that I learned how to surf right and I've never been surfing in my life right
43:13
but this is how unsporting I am right in my real life in the dream it was a
43:18
professional Surfer teaching me how to do it right right but obviously my
43:24
unconscious brain doesn't know the names
43:28
of any pro Surfers so in the dream it
43:31
was Tony Hawk the skateboarder like that's as close as my mind gets to
43:38
knowing a surfer and he he just kept saying Dan you you drinking that beer or
43:44
you pretending to yeah that's right Kelly Slater don't make me tell that
43:49
story again Matt don't make me do it listeners you can find that story somewhere he told
43:53
[Laughter] it do we have have a jingle for Star
43:59
Trek news yep we do that
44:02
yeah space the final
44:07
frontier these are the space News
44:10
podcast multiple nerd it's continuing
44:14
mission to explore strange new segments to seek out new jokes and new stories about
44:21
shab to boldly go where no podcast
44:25
bothered to go before [Music]
44:31
but that's not really a Star Trek jingle and we also have the special Leonard
44:35
Nimoy edition of geek of the
44:45
week of
44:47
[Music]
44:56
the mhm mhm MH so between that I think we're covered right yeah probably probably
45:02
yeah um so the news is there's a new Star Trek TV show coming yeah there is
45:08
and this is kind of it's excited some people and it's made some people a bit
45:12
nervous yeah I mean why would it make people nervous well it's it's being run
45:17
by the guys who did the new movies right curtzman and aie mhm okay and Damon
45:21
lindeloff I think as well is involved yeah he is so I'm just I I think it'll
45:26
go well like even Enterprise went for like five or seven seasons and I didn't
45:31
understand that show five or seven to I can't remember what it was but it was not
45:36
six understanding was not the point so if it's Lindelof doing this series I
45:40
mean it could end up being Lost in Space which in itself was already a
45:47
show oh that's good yeah I don't know it's uh well I mean we know nothing
45:53
about it so it's not really it's not we've got a long time to wait 2017 till
45:58
it comes out yeah stop getting stop getting people excited so far in advance
46:03
or nervous so far in advents yeah it's exactly what I said to my prostitute in the
46:09
taxi stop announcing things just release them in surprises yeah do you remember
46:14
when you used to not know what was coming out until it came out yeah yep
46:18
like before the internet you literally had no way of knowing yeah didn't that
46:21
happen with something recently the closest we've had was Fallout 4 when
46:25
they came out they did a pretty good job with that four month five months ago I
46:29
like how five months ago now is a surprise why it was when they announced
46:34
it I was expecting and it's coming out next year or 2017 not yeah later this
46:40
year what they need to do is go hey we've announced this game and you can
46:43
buy it now yeah go like Beyonce did with her album secret album no I'm not
46:49
familiar with it no you've never heard of Beyonce I said the I met the album when
46:54
I said it no I don't I'm not familiar with the album either but I do know that
46:58
she shocked Everyone by just going hey guess what here's an album yeah I didn't
47:03
know that okay is it good I don't know I don't listen to that
47:08
[ __ ] all right then I don't think she won any awards and that's why Kanye was
47:15
upset as long as he didn't upset Tay Tay I'll not stand by and let that happen
47:19
again well who he said upset someone else this year didn't he did he Beck
47:24
Beck yeah did he why what did he do did the same didn't upset Beck he mouthed
47:28
off at Beck and Beck went I don't give a [ __ ] who you are
47:31
mate classic classic Kanye classic Kanye mess around he is a genius he is can
47:38
somebody explain to me this article uh about a man who was never
47:44
born who fathered a child uh that would be him that' be him well allegedly yeah
47:49
can you explain that to me yeah I can explain that so um a couple had a kid
47:54
right uhhuh and uh at some point it became obvious that he was a
47:59
different blood type to his dad and they went well that can't be the
48:04
case mhm and they found out that this dude who was the father of this child
48:11
had had the startings of a twin when he
48:16
himself was in the womb right and the twin had stopped developing and he had
48:22
just absorbed the twin did he have like a third testicle I don't know if it's
48:29
that specific but some of his cells belong to his twin brother that never
48:35
existed wow so I don't really know the science behind this but basically his
48:41
twin brother fetus that never got born still somehow gave him enough cells to
48:48
make a sperm out of himself that's how it works right yeah okay so so it's not
48:53
a case of the wife was like hm you know how you have that one really handsome

49:46

50:00
want to do it it's a noise you know
50:04
well oh dear no I don't want to make that noise do we have a jingle for ghost
50:10
fetus news ghost fetus news all right we
50:16
don't we don't we just don't just don't do it just the listeners don't want to
50:20
hear that [ __ ] there's uh there's this other article about a father and son who
50:25
want to get married I was you were going to go there because this this Delights
50:29
me for so many reasons number one we did have an article on this show many months
50:36
ago that Jeremy ions was opposing gay marriage because he said fathers are
50:41
just going to be marrying their sons
50:44
yeah um in a hilarious hilariously naive point of view
50:51
yeah um okay but now it's happening for real sort of well
50:57
sort of so from what I understand um these these guys were Partners before
51:04
but because legally that that wasn't recognized one of them adopted the other
51:09
yeah so that they could be a family so which is sort of nice where they can
51:14
have like except now they not allowed to get married because that's incest yeah
51:19
like so instead of holding out and you know maybe kind of crusading for equal
51:24
marriage rights they've gone nah [ __ ] it you know we want to be a family and you
51:28
can't be my husband at least you can be my dad which I can sort of understand
51:32
they only did this what 3 years ago and they are one of them 78 so they're
51:38
probably going look we can't see an end to this so let's do this one's 68 he's
51:43
only 10 years older than him so anyway they adopted one another and a
51:49
technically Father and Son although still lovers right y problematic in and
51:54
of itself yeah and now that marriage is legal they they're saying well now we
52:00
can get married and of course the courts are saying well no you can't your father
52:05
and son which is kind of fair
52:09
enough well so they're going to have to what he's going to have to get
52:15
emancipated is that and then get married is that the right word that's the right
52:19
word isn't it I don't know that's not the first thing that comes to mind when
52:22
I think of that word I think it is is that what is that what Abraham Lincoln
52:27
wanted so he could marry his own dad is that what it was all
52:33
