- 0:07nerdy for Christ's sake we're finally here yes Jesus Christ I'm going to say
- 0:14sorry not for the lateness of this episode but for episode 83 yeah we had
- 0:18there were technical difficulties which we have now resolved hopefully and well
- 0:22the technical difficulty was Dan went to China I couldn't help because I was
- 0:26behind the great firewall yeah exactly and behind the actual Great Wall how was
- 0:30that the wall yeah look I was reserving judgment before I saw it I wasn't going
- 0:34to say that it was a great wall you know it was just a wall but um that [ __ ] is
- 0:40huge let it uh let it be known it as a great wall well well this come from the
- 0:45guy who's when I said let's go to the Grand Canyon he said it's just a big hole in the
- 0:50ground did I say that well I'm sorry that I'm more impressed when a man makes
- 0:55something as opposed to say God so you enjoyed yourself over in uh
- 1:02Chinatown Dan yeah yeah I did actually do they have a Chinatown in China in
- 1:07Hong Kong do they have a Chinatown do they have an Australia Town yeah close
- 1:10they do they have a western town yeah pretty much really you know when you go
- 1:14out in Sydney and you see you know Fair bit of white people but you also see a
- 1:18fair bit of Asian people Fair bit of this and that yeah I was the only
- 1:22Chinese person there and uh in China oh man yeah there's there's none of us wow
- 1:28and I got stared at a lot how did that feel then CU like I've never been stared
- 1:35at just funny like it was just like like unashamedly people just staring at me
- 1:41you've been stared at Dave you may not have known about
- 1:45it did you encounter any racism like as in you know well I did um I did see a
- 1:51sign that said danger slopes ahead which I thought was a little bit on the
- 1:56nose was it at the airport actually it was the Great Wall of China
- 2:03so Jesus oh it's for the Mongolians de so did you visit foxcon no
- 2:09I didn't visit foxcon I didn't get time to go to foxcon you know one thing I
- 2:12learned about China is that it's a really big place actually and a lot of
- 2:17the things that I thought oh I'll visit that while I'm in China [ __ ] nowhere
- 2:20near me so uh yeah I didn't get to go to The Unofficial World of Warcraft theme park
- 2:26unfortunately all right there's an unofficial World of War theme par yeah
- 2:31cuz they don't care about copyright law over there no I did see the Chinese
- 2:35Colonel Sanders that's hilarious okay and before you ask that's
- 2:40exactly it looks exactly the way you're thinking it does awesome do you have a
- 2:45photo I don't I didn't get a photo of that though I did get a photo of a
- 2:49couple of other weird things in fact if if if you'll permit me I've I've got a
- 2:51bit of a list here of weird things I saw in China okay yeah toar it would love to
- 2:57hear you guys have seen the spreadsheet we uh got to fill in the time
- 3:01somehow um t-shirts were one thing that I found particularly entertaining in
- 3:07China things that either I didn't get or they didn't get or possibly both just
- 3:13weird t-shirts the first one that I saw was this kind of really just kind of
- 3:18normal plain looking girl right who had this t-shirt on that was just a naked
- 3:22woman on her knees with her face blurred
- 3:25out and a speech bubble that was blank that just looked like you wrote your own
- 3:32caption in right and she just wrote in [ __ ]
- 3:38me and I I saw her just wearing that around the train station so that was
- 3:44interesting there was one t-shirt that
- 3:46said don't cry just smile and say [ __ ]
- 3:52you this was all in English yeah that's right yeah well I don't read a whole lot
- 3:57of Chinese Luke so yes everything I I was just making sure yeah then my
- 4:04absolute favorite t-shirt that I've ever seen and I almost stopped the guy to ask
- 4:08him where he got it um cuz out of context I don't really know where this
- 4:12is going but it said I didn't understand so I wrote a naive
- 4:18parody whoa that's deceptively
- 4:22deep yeah know what I know is did he write the naive parody because he didn't
- 4:28understand or was his parody naive because of his misunderstanding you know I really wish
- 4:34You' asked him now if I had I'd probably be even more
- 4:39confused that way so they are weird some weird t-shirts um excellent I saw a kid
- 4:44with the Apple Logo shaved into the back of his head really that was pretty weird
- 4:49huh some weird rules that they have there for example on the subway there's
- 4:54signs that say no balloons no balloons no balloons
- 4:59specifically that's sort of sad yeah they took the time to make a sign no
- 5:06happiness that was happening so often and it was so dangerous yeah they had to put up
- 5:12signs maybe balloons maybe that doesn't mean what we think it means maybe
- 5:18balloons maybe balloons means rape no no no because it didn't uh it wasn't
- 5:22written it was a it was a pictogram like the kind of no smoking symbol except it
- 5:26was a man holding the hand of a little child the child had balloons
- 5:30red circle with a line through it over the balloons over the balloons or over the
- 5:38pedophile you make a good point mat you make a good point
- 5:42um you know how they get celebrities to endorse products you know that kind of
- 5:46thing yep um there's a Chinese uh clothing brand called chulet which is
- 5:53chocolate but with the word cool inserted into it and um awesome and
- 5:58there celebrity endorser Bruce Wayne what yeah it's
- 6:05Bruce Wayne Bruce Wayne yeah the character Bruce Wayne yeah the character
- 6:09of Bruce Wayne he's drawn similar to he is in Batman the Animated Series and
- 6:13he's just on buses and stuff saying Bruce Wayne and dors to cool it but what
- 6:18really what Bruce Wayne Bruce
- 6:23Wayne Jesus yeah wow that's huh when you've got fictional
- 6:29character is endorsing your products I mean Jesus yeah yeah and I'm I'm pretty
- 6:33sure unofficially cuz I'm fairly certain DC don't go yeah that's fine use Bruce
- 6:38Wayne however you want although I'm sure if if they had signs that said SpongeBob
- 6:42endorses Twix Luke could be G munching down Twix constantly you like
- 6:49SpongeBob I don't mind SpongeBob I have found that if I do see
- 6:54it on television I can't stop watching it yeah he's addict he's addicted to
- 6:58SpongeBob and story but SpongeBob you're also addicted to
- 7:02Storage Wars I know I know but I digress another thing that I
- 7:08saw that was pretty interesting selfie machines and I saw these everywhere
- 7:13selfie machines they carry around selfie machines selfie machines they carry
- 7:18around their Mobile phones on Long sticks so that they can just hold them
- 7:23up take a cheeky little selfie really and I didn't see just one or two of
- 7:29these saw a lot huh a lot of these being used like it's you know like a like a
- 7:34claw on a stick you know one of those it's exactly that those little hands you
- 7:37had yeah on a claw when you were a kid to hold your mobile phone huh the sole
- 7:43purpose of taking a selfie wow in fact I
- 7:47even saw people using them on video mode to just films going around doing stuff
- 7:53I'm worried that we're going to start to see them in Australia well I've seen
- 7:57stuff like that but it's you I assume that that was for like you know like
- 8:01vloggers or you know like for onof things I didn't think people just
- 8:06carried them around and went oh there's a cool thing to take a selfie in front
- 8:09of I went to a lot of Tours went to a lot of museums and uh a lot of
- 8:13historical sites and the Chinese love their dragons right there's dragons
- 8:18everywhere who doesn't but they're not treated like mythical creatures they're
- 8:23kind of just amongst other real animals so you'll just have a row of statues and
- 8:29there'll be like a rooster and a rabbit and a horse and an elephant and a dragon
- 8:35right yeah and I asked a lot of people like what's with the dragon you know I
- 8:41said to one tour guide I'm like look
- 8:44rooster real horse real y rabbit real
- 8:50yeah dragon real what's the question Dragon what's the deal and he's like
- 8:57what are you getting at yeah what are you getting I you've got all these you've got all
- 9:01these real animals and they're a fictitious animal he's like H dragons
- 9:04are very important to our people I'm like yeah I get that like I really
- 9:07reading that loud and clear but I just yeah I notic understand and I I asked
- 9:12literally maybe four people in different cities on different tours
- 9:16like just admit to me admit to me that the dragon's made up not
- 9:23one your drifted Dr you just couldn't
- 9:26let it go that no one wer say It's Made Up say it's made up no no I won't say it

- 9:49load can't go to Google Google's blocked you can use other search engines but
- 9:53Google isn't one of like but the most frustrating thing was my phone kept
- 9:57giving me push notifications for Facebook and and Twitter and things like
- 10:01that but I couldn't actually access the sites how how does that work they push
- 10:06notifications come from different servers not facebook.com ah yeah so and
- 10:10the app didn't work the apps just didn't work yeah that's right the apps were

- 11:07INF fringing theme park that's right and if you do I'll say this we'll probably
- 11:12come to it yeah oh
- 11:17dear speaking of mythical creatures I mean factual creatures factual creatures
- 11:24oh I have a feeling we've got some Sasquatch news we do we have some
- 11:26Sasquatch news uh kid jingle mad do we have a jingle did we have I think I
- 11:33don't think we we go through this every time we do Sasquatch news yes we have a
- 11:37jingle all right good then okay
- 11:49well my name is Dave and this is the sasquat Jingle Derpy derp [ __ ] yes that
- 11:56was our jingle for sasquash news such a good jingle jingle I can't believe I forgot it
- 12:01existed but anyway I think at a certain point we stopped doing jingles and Dave
- 12:06just kept insisting that they were yeah know any segments that have any segments
- 12:10that have been made up since then don't if I if I go to look for a jingle and
- 12:15there not a jingle this is going to be the jingle D my name is Dave and this is
- 12:19the Squatch jingle dery D that's going to be the jingle well it was better than the time
- 12:25that you guys used that sound bite of me going so suck a dick and download pocast
- 12:30as the ad for this that was a great was around to stop
- 12:34you that was a great ad we should have done one without you and then every time
- 12:39you to say something it was just that suck a
- 12:43dick what do you think about that Dan so suck a dick and download our podcast
- 12:49podcast I believe the term was
- 12:52podcast anyway there's been a cover up
- 12:56uh some scientists have
- 13:00performed tests I'm making air
- 13:04quotes on um a number of alleged well
- 13:08sorry factually uh Sasquatch samples 30
- 13:12hair samples um that were taken from various sightings of the Sasquatch and
- 13:19Bigfoot uh from museums amate Hunters am Hunters all all over the
- 13:24world and uh and the results are in uh and they claim that there were
- 13:30bears and there were dogs and there was a porcupine but there was not a Bigfoot
- 13:37no so so it's a conspiracy to cover up Bigfoot well clearly well they only
- 13:42explanation I mean how would they identify it as Bigfoot no one knows what
- 13:46the DNA secet would be exactly so they would say it's an unknown
- 13:50animal oh yeah well let's go back let's let's were there were there any
- 13:54inconclusive results there were two anomalies I'll go on two of the hair
- 13:59samples apparently can be traced back to a Paleolithic polar bear bone which is
- 14:06dated to more than a 100,000 years ago and it was discovered in the
- 14:10Arctic so that's interesting yeah what are still still a
- 14:16bear though still still not a Sasquatch well I mean what's it doing hanging
- 14:21around wherever you know what the article doesn't actually say where those
- 14:25samples were gathered oh no from the Himalayas my my guess is right
- 14:30where Sasquatch we're talking a
- 14:33Yeti well Himalayas they found two hair samples that belong to a Paleolithic
- 14:39polar bear I believe it's pronounced chalia
- 14:44matalas kamalia no it's not pluralia refers the entire entire range
- 14:51very well their samples dated sorry related to
- 14:57a it's better dated to more
- 15:00than thousand years ago in the in thetic
- 15:05lost half Arabic listeners going on that was a Himalayan accent like what
- 15:11terrible kalianan the Himalayas are not in Arabia
- 15:17David no no they certainly not no so uh yeah so I don't know I don't know what's
- 15:23going on there they they're telling us that they don't match the the the
- 15:27Bigfoot but they match this 100,000 year old polar bear that doesn't
- 15:32it supposedly doesn't anymore just doesn't add up so I think uh doesn't add
- 15:36up it doesn't add
- 15:40up keep the search going exactly no no I don't think we need to search anym I
- 15:45think it's just best to assume that they're out there and that they're just
- 15:49too smart for the scientists and they're probably telepathic and uh I'm pretty
- 15:53sure they're um dragging people off to their humpies and um and hanging their
- 15:58leg up on the wall could you uh and showing showing them their uh as Luke
- 16:03would call it little Sasquatch penis all right I don't know how this
- 16:09podcast suddenly started becoming about travel and yetis um not the two things
- 16:15that traditionally we cover on the show I know sorry about that listeners
- 16:18actually this is an unusual start let's get back to uh unusual
- 16:25start Steam summer s gents yes then you obviously missed it all oh yeah I was
- 16:31behind the great firewall do they have steam in what did you guys
- 16:34get um I actually Ste very well I only spent about $80 during that sale
- 16:41$80 yeah wow I spent about 20
- 16:4530 I brought a as always I brought a lot of things that uh I'll probably never
- 16:51play H yeah exactly well that's that's what they're counting on Luke so y
- 16:57that's their business model yeah do you have more games than me
- 17:01yet uh I would say yes I got 265 now I've got more than that let me load up
- 17:06steam unfortunately I've got more than that really all games
- 17:12340 all right I got to beat that during the sale I picked things up and also
- 17:17I've uh you there was a period some games you can um register your legit
- 17:22copies uh like physical copies on here and so I didn't need those anymore and
- 17:27and some of them are like like there's Metal of Honor multiplayer
- 17:31Metal of Honor single player like lot of stuff like that so some of these are
- 17:35double ups and I buy like Star Wars packs or I've got the Sherlock Holmes
- 17:39pack which has got like six games in it so I don't know I've just kind
- 17:44of ended up with an excessive amount of games that I'll never
- 17:49play Jesus I'm just amazed that you Dave you now own
- 17:53payday oh thanks dude the one or two
- 17:57one
- 18:02oh oh thanks for nothing I
- 18:09guess they've got DCS F uh F-15 Strike Eagle if you want to no you're getting
- 18:15no board DCS anything from me you have to make sure you have to make sure he
- 18:20plays payday now so what did you buy
- 18:23Luke well the he um I brought um always
- 18:28sometimes monster is what hold I'm just checking the name of
- 18:33it it is don't even know what it's
- 18:37called always sometimes monsters what is that I have to go to the store Page cuz
- 18:44I actually forget it does look really cool though Jesus um set out on a cross
- 18:49country journey to win back the love of your life and endure the hardship of
- 18:53making story defining choices that will affect your life and the lives of those
- 18:57around you oh right so no mention of monsters so I'm assuming the monster in this story is
- 19:04you the monster is love that's what I believe in the ways that that you a good
- 19:09man can turn bad and and ruin a relationship
- 19:14yeah yeah so I should be great at that in real life yeah I've been playing that
- 19:20for the last 30 years so would you recommend it um I
- 19:27haven't played it yet down
- 19:35[Music] man and I actually can't remember what else I brought they should make a game
- 19:40of Dave's life kids would be buying it just being
- 19:44like how was it just this wasn't very
- 19:48fun so true was had a lot of potential it's like would you play it again yeah
- 19:53for some reason I think I have to play it every day but I'm just I'm just not
- 19:58enjoying it there is a game that I did buy that I have played and I did enjoy
- 20:02what's that uh plague Incorporated involved oh is that one of the ones
- 20:07where you got to make a virus or you are a virus or yeah you're you're a virus
- 20:11and you got to try and evolve it and kill everyone in the world yeah right
- 20:16cool I would recommend it it's just it's little point and click game where you
- 20:19save up points and then you decide how you're going to involve your
- 20:25virus that one I would actually recommend I've seen that looks pretty cool
- 20:30well I bought as for the other $60 who knows
- 20:36Jesus I bought uh Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning because that was like a couple
- 20:41of bucks that's the 38 Studios role playing game the company from Rhode
- 20:46Island that spent millions of dollars and then didn't make any money and then
- 20:50went broke and then owed the government millions of
- 20:55dollars and now they now they no longer fund game studios in Rhode iseland
- 20:59because of it so that's that game which is actually pretty fun so that kind of
- 21:04sucks yeah too little too late yeah yeah that's good game it's written by um ra a
- 21:10Salvatore who famously wrote the um the
- 21:14Dungeons and Dragons books about driz dden the the dark
- 21:20elf huge nerds on the internet will know what I'm talking about both of them no
- 21:24no need to get racist no worries apologies I also purched just papers
- 21:30please I've got papers please Y which uh I only played for a couple of minutes
- 21:35but that's uh it's pretty cool I want to play more of it uh isn't it just like
- 21:41paperwork essentially it is but it's it's interesting I yeah a little bit more to
- 21:47it I bought it in the last Steam Sale still haven't put it on oh no we check it out it's
- 21:53good um Dave I just took back
- 21:56payday what do you mean you took it back I've decided I'm not just not going to
- 22:02give it to you I'm going to give it to you in exchange for your trading
- 22:08cards well I already accepted it over steam
- 22:12so nope I just went in there and it's back in my inventory I have returned it
- 22:18Jesus the Lord the lord giveth and the lord taketh
- 22:23away [ __ ] Lord Indian Giver what the [ __ ] don't no need to be no need to be
- 22:29racist no need for racism Mr David oh sorry that was sanjed he edits
- 22:35the podcast now what really seriously yeah he does
- 22:41he does a good drink he does a great job no I made L you seriously took I did I'm
- 22:46I'm about to offer it back to you just in
- 22:53exchange for all of your trading cards wait my summer sale trading cards or all
- 22:57of my trading cards all of your trading cards I just I gave
- 23:00him all of mine I have all of my trading cards what are you doing with them
- 23:06trading with them yeah yeah I'm giving you a game all
- 23:11your trading cards I like the way Luke Works he gives
- 23:17you something then he takes it back and he says if you want it back you got to
- 23:22pay for it I'm pretty sure there were [ __ ] drug dealers at my high school that had
- 23:28that exact same tactic you know he could just give Gabe new a couple of bucks for
- 23:34it I don't understand how this happened who who bought me Dead Island
- 23:40Riptide what uh probably Luke yeah probably me always giving people games I
- 23:46don't have Dead Island Rip Tide [ __ ] better not have been you son of a [ __ ]
- 23:50wait deadline Dead Island epidemic beta gift has been added to your Dave having
- 23:54something that you don't have doesn't take anything away from you that's true that's true
- 23:59oh I also bought risk of rain and I think I gifted that to a few of you yes
- 24:03I got that thank you for that GI it to me [ __ ] H it's not Mac compatible that's
- 24:08the reason for that I think wait now how many did I give it to you
- 24:13Dave I don't know I don't think so that's awkward I just found out the the
- 24:18gift did go through look it would be pretty weird if
- 24:25you could gift something and then just take it back you can I don't know why
- 24:30they build that function in like when they were when they were coding this did
- 24:33somebody go wait there should be there should be a function to take it back
- 24:38because and then gay went no no take Backes no takey
- 24:45Backes yeah so I'll think of another trade for your trading
- 24:49cards what else I get got one thing I did want to talk about I didn't get this
- 24:54in the sale I got it on my iPad a while ago but I started to play the other
- 24:57night the wolf Among Us has anyone played that is that the uh Adventure
- 25:02game by the guys that did uh The Walking Dead yeah The Telltale Telltale yeah
- 25:06yeah that looks that looks pretty good yeah see I it kind of is but I did you
- 25:12play The Walking Dead Oh I loved it yeah see I liked it but I have this issue
- 25:19with it where it kind of devolves into oh O O Tap now like it's all just quick
- 25:25timey [ __ ] and well it's an adventure game it's either click on stuff and do
- 25:30quick time of [ __ ] or just click on stuff like well the what else do you
- 25:34want them to do I think I'm going to maybe I'll try it a bit like more on um
- 25:39PC I played The Walking Dead on PC and I didn't have as many issues with it but I
- 25:42was playing this on the iPad The Wolf Among Us and the beginning of it starts
- 25:47out where you you got a conversation and you know the conversation one of those
- 25:51ones where the time is counting down and you've got to choose something real
- 25:55quick before your guy just stands there and says nothing like an idiot and I
- 25:59don't really like that because I like to think about what I'm doing I don't play
- 26:03a game because I'm want to be stressed about what I'm going to say next you
- 26:08know what I mean but that was the best part about the game was is that it's
- 26:10like real life it's like you've got you know you got a minute to think about
- 26:14this here while it's happening and then you're on your own you got like 5
- 26:17Seconds to think about it I don't know but yeah see I I don't know I don't
- 26:20really like that so much and then and then after that there's just this
- 26:24prolonged QuickTime event which I I found frustrating because with the iPad
- 26:30you've got tap and swipe and then apparently without telling me anything
- 26:35you've then got repeatedly tap really fast and I just kept dying because I
- 26:39didn't realize that I it had changed from just tap to keep tapping keep
- 26:44tapping and then I yeah anyway I got really frustrated with it and uh stopped
- 26:49playing so I want to go back to it where about it just stopped playing in The
- 26:53Walking Dead Oh The Walking Dead uh I played up until like
- 26:59uh episode three or four what was the one with the the one I stopped at the I
- 27:03finished the one with the train I think and then stopped right okay I think they
- 27:08oh no wait they got to the town they got to the the city or whatever after that
- 27:12you did did that thing happen that you'd know I was talking about if you'd played
- 27:16that further no I guess it didn't oh man
- 27:21you missed out you missed out it's just I don't like anybody in it it's not
- 27:26interesting to me yeah that's my life mat I don't know I didn't like any of
- 27:31the characters and I don't know this the wolf amongus seems really interesting
- 27:34the story is great it's it's it's based on the fables comics and it's about um
- 27:40all of the characters from the old fables and fairy tales live in an area
- 27:44of the city of New York where it's protected by a by magic by a glamour so
- 27:48that humans can't see it and some of them wand about and they have fights and
- 27:52stuff like that but they're not supposed to reveal themselves to the humans and
- 27:54so it's it's pretty funny like the you play you play as um Bigby the Wolf The
- 28:01Big Bad Wolf who's the sheriff apparently and has but has to catch a
- 28:04taxi around for some reason um and then you get to this building at the start
- 28:09and the the landlord you know the old kudin landlord who lives downstairs is
- 28:13towed and you walk in and he's just there as a toad and you have to tell him
- 28:18off for walking around as a toad because he's like I can't walk in here and see a
- 28:224-ot [ __ ] toad walking around like go pay for some [ __ ] magic to look like
- 28:28a human it's pretty funny so that's I was enjoying it and then it just pissed
- 28:32me off with its gameplay and I also I read that it is
- 28:39based very closely on a story arc from the comics so I'm like oh maybe I should
- 28:43just read the comics they're great yeah I've read them they're good but yeah I
- 28:49I'm GNA I'm G to give it another try I might try it on PC except I already paid
- 28:53for on the iPad so I pissed off did you buy the whole thing or just
- 28:57one episode one episode and I think I bought it on sale but I can't actually remember
- 29:03cuz well you could just play the first episode and then buy the rest on PC yeah
- 29:07that's true oh yeah and the other thing I was talking about Shadow run I bought
- 29:10the shadow run expansion on PC because I was trying to play shadow run on my iPad
- 29:13I've Tred to play games on my iPad so many times and they always [ __ ] me
- 29:16around I try to play iPad games suck why do you buy iPad games well they just
- 29:21because I'm I like the idea of just of like for example XCOM on the iPad is pretty
- 29:26cool like iPad's brilliant yeah right but that's a turn based strategy game
- 29:32like it well so is Shadow run to a degree it's more like it's an RPG like
- 29:36balers gate and all that kind of thing and I bought balers gate the first one
- 29:39on there and I'm like I don't want to play this on iPad either because oh W
- 29:43for one they can't patch them effectively no because I have to
- 29:47download the whole thing all over again yeah and because they have to [ __ ]
- 29:50around submitting them to Apple and so Shadow run has twice now corrupted my
- 29:55save game and then this time I'm really far into it and it's just it's and and
- 30:01it's corrupted in a stupid way I basically just it just took all my money
- 30:04away because of some stupid [ __ ] bug and now I can't hire anybody to help me
- 30:09on this Mission so I can't complete the mission and it's I don't just pissed me
- 30:14off so it's dead to me it's dead to me it's like real life it's just dead to me
- 30:20so I'm not playing games on my iPad anymore [ __ ]
- 30:24off right which means which makes me wonder what am I going to do with
- 30:31it like you should gift it gift it to Luke and then take it off
- 30:36him L you on an iPad he has one I have one that I'm I'm
- 30:42thinking about giving away oh all right fine but Dave I just sent you another
- 30:49trade it's just a picture of his mom tied up in a
- 30:52basement sorry sorry Dan go on oh
- 30:59no I've been playing not in the same caliber but I've been playing just a
- 31:02cute little addictive game um iOS game called sometimes you die has anybody
- 31:07encountered that no no kind of It kind of plays against that concept that just
- 31:13about every game ever made shares which is you try not to die right yeah so this
- 31:19game yep you do die and you often have to die in order to get through the level
- 31:24huh so it's it's this little black and white thing it's just kind kind of this
- 31:28cool really minimalist design and you're a little Cube and you kind of got to
- 31:34navigate these levels but you have to sometimes let yourself die um in various
- 31:39ways in order to help yourself well you
- 31:42respawn so sometimes you might need your
- 31:46dead body somewhere strategic so you can jump up onto it to then jump up onto a
- 31:51Higher ledge stuff like that really simple but just cool I just I'm just
- 31:56really enjoying it that's interesting I bought it on the name
- 32:01alone wow where' you buy it from because I just want to have look on Steam and
- 32:06it's not there it's an iPad game I wish I had time to play on the
- 32:13iPad I've got uh just a little little bit of interesting funny
- 32:18news Dan's been overseas but somebody who won't be traveling overseas any
- 32:23anytime soon is's a young man uh in the United States I think he's in the United
- 32:27States probably should have fact checked that before I said it stop
- 32:32before yeah exactly no he's British he's British so he's he's he's not leaving
- 32:38the the the UK anyway uh a guy in Britain has changed his name legally to
- 32:44Han Solo and uh got his um you know changed
- 32:51his his bank card and and and all his stuff and had a good laugh about it but
- 32:55then he found out that um they weren't issuing him a passport under that name
- 33:00because it's a fictional character so uh he's he's kind of Fu but
- 33:07it's it's his name doesn't matter apparently um apparently they they rejected
- 33:13it so I know I know that sounds strange because I mean what if your name is Han
- 33:19and your surname is solo by birth but apparently it is possible yeah well
- 33:25apparently um apparently they said no
- 33:32yeah so uh anyway well done he has a dri's license that says Han Solo yep
- 33:38presumably yep he's got bills addressed to his house that say Mr solo you yep
- 33:43your gas money is over you yeah yeah your vesan gas vesan gas I thought that
- 33:50no that's not it that's Starcraft star yeah yeah I've mixed up my stars
- 33:56um I no no no not Tiberian oh crap how
- 34:00do I not know this a you're F this is embarrassing it's embarrassing to you
- 34:06that you don't that you don't know the name of the gas in Star Wars yes on bbin
- 34:11specifically bbin no was right to gas I
- 34:15was right all right so I do know it Emar
- 34:18anymore tomato I say best best I'm just more interested in the
- 34:25spice from uh mange not from kle mange the spice from
- 34:31kastle's better that should be a sketch there should be a sketch where the spice
- 34:38trador from Dune is talking to the spice trador from Kastle that big [ __ ]
- 34:43space Navigator thing from we got the best spice on bbin no no no no you don't

- 35:05space anyway Han Solo We Salute You you
- 35:09goof oh jeez surrounded by idiots and um speaking of Star Wars speaking
- 35:16of some news regarding the uh not the well some news regarding the the
- 35:21upcoming episode seven as well apparently let's start there yeah uh
- 35:26Harrison Ford broke his leg recently mhm uh I'm not sure exactly how but
- 35:31apparently it involved the door of the Millennium Falcon Alle talked about this
- 35:36no that's fine last episode that's all right that's all right but no well the
- 35:39update is that apparently he in another two weeks he's going to be okay to come
- 35:44back and they'll complete the set the the shooting so so that's good news
- 35:49because people were worried that they were going to you know write his
- 35:51character out and his character we're going to write Han Solo out it's like
- 35:56spoilers he's playing H who does he play Hans Olo yeah cuz I'm sure that's what was
- 36:03going to happen that JJ went oh no it's fine we'll just ride Han Solo out of
- 36:06Star Wars no problem yeah no one will have any problem with that well he can
- 36:10play Indiana Jones
- 36:15instead I read today a rumor did you guys any read anything about this that
- 36:20carry fish's daughter maybe in Star Wars she's going to be playing yeah Princess

- 37:55I'm sorry sorry not even about sh
- 38:00shov Hano H Olo h
- 38:07o and uh the guy who directed
- 38:11lopa is apparently doing eight and nine
- 38:16which is wasn't that a terrible film I
- 38:20thought so it was awful now the the disappointing thing is that Ryan
- 38:26Johnson's first film brick is amazing but everything he's directed after that
- 38:32the Brothers Bloom Looper couple of episodes of Breaking Bad have all been
- 38:37awful awful arguably the worst episode
- 38:41of Breaking Bad was his episode really
- 38:45and I just I don't want Star Wars to be like Loper I mean I'm I'm not a mad fan
- 38:51of JJ ABS by any means but like I'm fine
- 38:55with him doing Star Wars yeah he's
- 38:58because my my threshold is so low like
- 39:03anything will impress me at this point he's just he's just inoffensive I guess
- 39:08yeah he'll did you hear what uh Kevin Smith said no Kevin Smith was allowed to
- 39:15visit the set and watch shooting oh yeah he was allowed to do that for [ __ ]
- 39:19other movies as well and he was like oh my God it's gonna be
- 39:21amazing oh really yeah oh maybe this doesn't mean anything oh you took the
- 39:26wind out of Dance sorry yeah you really did no no no just he he tweeted a
- 39:30picture of himself we and he said I can't disclose anything
- 39:35because I'm under contract but it's it's what you want it to be but I'm but as
- 39:41Matt just shhot all over my argument maybe it won't I can't disclose anything
- 39:46but I'm crying because currently MK Hamill is sucking me

- 43:05robot excited so um would I be able to borrow
- 43:10$110,000 off someone no or change borrow to
- 43:16have oh in that in that case it was the fact that it was a loan
- 43:22that was kind of putting me offside what do you need it for oh hang on I can
- 43:24scroll down and see I I assume he means for a Tech Kickstarter oh fleet Fleet
- 43:29Admiral yeah I'd love to get that as I think I don't even know what it comes

- 43:37money as I don't have yeah well they've made $64,000 not bad uh they do need half a
- 43:43mill so they're Fair bit off but it has
- 43:47only been going for a few days oh okay it's a short I was going to say

- 44:15you it's all right I'm sure we'll get back into the Rhythm soon all right well
- 44:19everybody go support robot Tech so Luke can have things that he wants but it is
- 44:24so scaring me that all this is happening just after I get my new tattoo
- 44:29interesting maybe how's that going yeah sorry you got it filled in no not
- 44:36filled in yet still just the outline I'll probably get it filled in in a
- 44:38month okay need money for it yeah so that's the tattoo of um Sonic the
- 44:44Hedgehog [ __ ] Christian Stewart skull skull [ __ ] yes yeah whose suggestion
- 44:50was that again uh that was a I think that yeah I think it no that or was the
- 44:56mean no set was he oh right yeah no I don't know let me check so was it Phil
- 45:01was it Phils it was Phils yeah was it
- 45:06Phil nice work Phil yeah but again still waiting on people to send in more
- 45:13drawings or a drawing ideas are good but the whole
- 45:17idea is I can't draw for [ __ ] so it' be really good if someone could design
- 45:24something Simon Just putting it out there I think does anyone else get the
- 45:31feeling this whole competition was pretty much just set up was Luke wanted
- 45:35Simon to design him ATT why can't you just ask him cuz cuz that's kind of what
- 45:40I assumed at the time he's really nice he even he even gave me a very nice
- 45:46jacket he gave me my Assassin's Creed jacket he did too do you want me to do
- 45:49you want me to ask him to design you a tattoo no no I'm doing it through the
- 45:54podcast all right all right y know now he will
- 45:58yeah really shocked when I didn't get one from him though but still the offer
- 46:03is out to all our listeners as well you design really I was just I was just
- 46:07shocked that you didn't want to work for free well to be fair he has done quite
- 46:14exactly like [ __ ] hell yeah but he also uses
- 46:19us he uses us to advertise himself so well look in all honesty I can honestly
- 46:26say our listeners have never done anything for us whatsoever but Simon you
- 46:31think Simon's just desperate to reach those 100 150 people yeah it was like
- 46:36you sat at home going how can I get more eyeballs on the artwork that I'm
- 46:42producing I need to find the most popular podcast he chose a podcast with
- 46:47the lowest listener rate of probably any podcast I don't know Matt and I used to
- 46:52listen to a podcast that I'm pretty certain we were the only two it was
- 46:56called called from the director's chair and it was a guy basically giving his
- 47:00own film reviews each week but then after 3 weeks he got sick of that
- 47:04because he bought a zoom and then decided he was more interested in
- 47:08talking about the zoom week to week than film reviews I tried to find so the
- 47:14podcast became a zoom podcast kidding I tried to find I let it
- 47:19go for about three more weeks and then I unsubscribe I tried to find it recently
- 47:23but he's like I've tried to find it he's like erased it from the internet cuz I
- 47:27assume he he grew up and realized it was like terrible but it was called yeah
- 47:31from the director's chair and I was always annoyed so I'm like that is a
- 47:34great name for a podcast if you're a director yeah which
- 47:40not yeah from the director's chair is like get an inside view yeah when like
- 47:45directors working directors talk about their process but no it was I deed to
- 47:51Star Wars prequels again this week I
- 47:53just want to say that um B is pretty
- 47:58annoying for those out there that is only a mild exaggeration it was pretty
- 48:04crazy so I purchased a Microsoft zun this
- 48:08[Laughter]
- 48:16week you know the scary thing Mt I think that was about 10 years ago
- 48:22yeah it was when I worked at yoka I mean when I worked at beep
- 48:26[Laughter]
- 48:32yeah but if I beat that out it's going to sound like you worked at somewhere pretty
- 48:37shap no I just don't want to I don't want to like I don't want people to find me on the
- 48:43internet well I worked for an engineering company a Japanese engineering
- 48:47company just explain if if you're vague about it it's just going to sound
- 48:52dodgy when I worked for a uh undisclosed Japanese uh engineer let's let's call it
- 48:58engineer no I just don't want to I don't want to get in trouble for name oh you
- 49:02know I worked at yokawa who [ __ ] gives a [ __ ] no one only person well
- 49:07Paul worked there with me he listens he doesn't listen anymore because you all
- 49:10pissed him off you're got to get super slander you watch will I yeah for what
- 49:15for saying no I did work there they don't want to be affiliated with the
- 49:19podcast anyway probably not anyway for all your uh for all your
- 49:26[ __ ] gas GAE needs contact yok oh Jesus um why did I think they
- 49:32made photo cop gr can you please email in as the law [ __ ] podcast and sort
- 49:38this out please they make like uh once it's gone to measurement equipment for
- 49:42power plants and things like that won't be the first time we've pulled a live
- 49:45show from Ed I got something for you to measure we have we still only had the
- 49:51one show pulled from a h no no I think there's been at least
- 49:57two there was one one phone number in one on no no no that's never happened
- 50:03there was one where look if you if you find one that the phone number is left
- 50:07in do please let us know uh call a text immediately on
- 50:13over there was one so that we can immediately take it down there was one
- 50:18that that I had to pull down again because Dan you left a very blatant
- 50:24racial slur in because you thought that I would laugh at it and then take it out
- 50:29but I didn't even listen to it and I just put it up yeah that was the week I
- 50:33found out for sure that Matt wasn't listening to I was going now Matt you're
- 50:37gonna proof read this you're gonna proof listen to this right yeah yeah Dan yeah
- 50:40yeah I'll totally listen to yeah and then um I think Jenna told me that uh
- 50:47Jenna told me that there was a uh an offensive statement made actually
- 50:53didn't you have to take that down twice yeah because it was um and not only that
- 50:58it was I don't know if you know this Dave but it was actually you out of
- 51:01context making the offensive statement sounds about right yep yeah we saved you
- 51:08buddy yeah thanks yeah and of course the other the other one had to be pulled
- 51:13because Luke admitted a sex
- 51:16crime hey hey he yeah he did he did by accident it's
- 51:23true you didn't mean you didn't mean to admit it and to be fair didn't realize
- 51:27you were committing a sex crime but it was still a sex crime you
- 51:32were committing a sex crime all right we are cutting that part out what I don't
- 51:37understand what the problem is just because you committed a sexy crime
- 51:43Luke the sexiest of all crimes all right well uh there's there's
- 51:49some books to cover before we go uh yeah
- 51:53I uh I read uh Helter Skelter which is what you thinking why did you read that
- 51:58book what it's all the great literature out there you chose to read Manson's
- 52:03Helter Skelter no no no it's not by him it's by the prosecutor Vincent giosi and
- 52:08it's about the the the from the police from the detective's point of
- 52:14view or sorry the prosecutor's point of view about the case and how uh they
- 52:19started out nobody had any [ __ ] idea who who who committed the murders and
- 52:24how they eventually tracked them down and then just about all the the crazy
- 52:28[ __ ] and and the the just the weird crazy motive behind it and having to
- 52:34prove all that stuff in court and yeah it was really
- 52:37interesting I I recommend it it's interesting yeah right all
- 52:44right um another in-depth no no I well the
- 52:49only reason I haven't said anything is because you you were like so dismissive of it
- 52:55no being dismissive I was really I don't think
- 53:00you weren't being dismissive you said why did you read
- 53:05that that's pretty
- 53:08dismissive that's like the definition of
- 53:12dismissive you're right I I mean it's all in the tone really because if you
- 53:16said oh why would you read that you know then well I tell you what the reason I
- 53:22read is because I wanted to know I wanted to know why they killed those people
- 53:27and crazy well I can tell you why uh it's it's because um the The White Album
- 53:34by The Beatles is actually uh a coded
- 53:37message that tells us that um the a big race war between blacks and whites is
- 53:43coming and um the blacks are going to wipe out all the white people except for
- 53:48a small group of of white people who will flee into the desert led by Charles
- 53:51Manson who will hide underground until eventually mention by until uh yeah yeah
- 53:56yeah yeah yeah or or Jesus Christ as he's Otherwise Known and and then
- 54:01eventually once they take over the world the black people are going to realize
- 54:04that that they actually don't know how to run anything because all they know
- 54:06how to do is what white people tell them and so they'll they'll come to Manson in
- 54:11in the desert and say we need you to be the ruler of the world sorry we we we
- 54:16[ __ ] up and then he will he will with them as His slaves he will rule the
- 54:21world except except and they can I just ask they they got this from the beetle
- 54:26white ALB with such tracks as o o uh Blackbird and um and Helter Skelter
- 54:33specifically Helter Skelter Yeah coming down well there is one called Happiness
- 54:36as a Warm Gun on there too um yeah and
- 54:40so but he felt that it was taking taking
- 54:43them a bit long to um to get started so
- 54:48he decided to kind of kick things off by murdering first you know like Sharon
- 54:54Tate and and everyone at um at the house there at the house the palinis were you
- 55:00just hate it when a new world order is slow Off the Mark yeah and then the next
- 55:04night they um murdered the the laners and then he uh the plan was to steal her
- 55:10purse and ditch it in a a bad neighborhood because he assumed that
- 55:17ghetto you mean yeah because he assumed that a black person would find it and
- 55:21not be able to resist using the credit cards thus implicating themselves
- 55:27that was his plan so um so like I said
- 55:34interesting and uh and then obviously like throughout the court case uh he was
- 55:39hilarious interesting as well for psychopath because he uh the first thing
- 55:43he did he wanted to represent himself so he fired his attorney and eventually
- 55:48convinced the judge to let him represent himself and the first thing he did was
- 55:51submit a RIT of hius Corpus Corpus because he said that um his
- 55:57his incarceration was against the will of God and uh that he should be released
- 56:02immediately and uh so they could called the judge said how did that motion uh
- 56:07carry mate uh denied
- 56:11and yeah like well I wish I hadn't fired my
- 56:17lawyer no no no he kept trying to fire his lawyer after that as well eventually
- 56:21they said no you're getting a lawyer and uh and so they gave and he kept
- 56:26threatening to kill the lawyer and then the girls involved who were all you know
- 56:30the the girls actually performed the murders their lawyers they kept firing
- 56:35lawyers they went through like 10 20 lawyers because they kept firing them
- 56:38and because they he's he he wanted them to yeah they did they murdered one of them
- 56:44UMAS did murder one of them yeah Hughes was murdered um they never proved it but
- 56:50um an anonymous member of the family said that yes he was murdered because he
- 56:56refused to do they didn't want basically the truth was that Manson brainwashed
- 57:01them into doing it but he wanted the girls to take the rap and they were
- 57:06willing to do it but their attorney said no that's that's not Justice and refused
- 57:12to do it at which point he was firing them and firing them and then
- 57:15threatening to murder them and then murdered one of them and then yeah it
- 57:19was it's pretty crazy wow so I said I recommend it like it's pretty
- 57:23interesting just this does does sound interesting I'll um I'll put that on my
- 57:27list of [ __ ] the 50 billion books I want to read Jesus it's piling up yeah
- 57:34but you're reading some Cormac McCarthy at the moment by the look of it I am and
- 57:37as you know I'm a I'm a huge fan of Cormac McCarthy I think his his writing
- 57:41style is just amazing um bit of a uh change of pace No Country for Old Men
- 57:47writing style completely different more traditional in many aspects um less
- 57:53poetic description and more just uh straightforward action kind of like what
- 57:58you get out of like a like a pulp novel really um it's uh it's a great story
- 58:04though um I haven't seen the movie so I I I was sort of reading this with fresh
- 58:08eyes because I um I I heard they they made it into a
- 58:12film in 2007 it was quite good um went through the book yeah I went through the
- 58:17book um and I I enjoyed it but um in terms of is someone eating something
- 58:24no not me no someone was Ching down on something
- 58:29and I know it I have a cup of tea sorry I may have been drinking some tea I
- 58:34apologize all um so yeah I uh I read the book uh
- 58:40it's a pretty interesting story uh about a guy who just wanders into the desert
- 58:44and uh sees basically a Mexican drug deal going bad and uh $2 and a half
- 58:49million in a suitcase takes it and um yeah all series of uh horribly violent
- 58:56and awful things happen to both him and the people around him it's uh it's a
- 59:01great tale I highly recommend it
- 59:06cool I I'm currently reading uh something I won't say too much because
- 59:11I'm about 50 pages from the end still but um are you worried you're going to
- 59:15spoil it for yourself yeah exactly no I just mean I can't comment
- 59:21on the book as a whole but uh speaking of books that have been made into films
- 59:25I'm reading First Blood oh book that
- 59:28kicked off the Rambo franchise how is this one of those one
- 59:35now is this one of those books that was written uh for the movie specifically or
- 59:39was this one that was a book first and then became a movie it was a book first
- 59:42yeah the no novelization of the film no no no so
- 59:48bad well the funny thing is this was written just as a novel Standalone novel
- 59:52they then um Hollywood bought the rights they made the movie First Blood
- 59:56it was a hit they then made two sequels but then they hired the guy who wrote
- 1:00:01the first novel to write the novelizations of the two sequels oh
- 1:00:06really yeah that's interesting H well I'm yeah it's a pretty
- 1:00:13interesting book what are the differences uh so far Dan it's been so
- 1:00:17long since I've seen the film and I'm going to watch it again immediately
- 1:00:20after I finished the book right right but um so far the characterization is
- 1:00:24quite different uh you know obviously Stallone was a big
- 1:00:28star by then so they didn't want him to
- 1:00:31depart too far from his General stall
- 1:00:36loness so there's not a lot of you know there's quite a bit more characterization in the
- 1:00:40book and it goes into quite a bit more detail about who he is and who the cop
- 1:00:45is that's tracking him down all that kind of stuff but I'm
- 1:00:50really I'll let you know when I finished great well I'm about halfway through Fahrenheit
- 1:00:57451 oh at the moment cool and uh I I'm sure I'm gonna have more to say at the
- 1:01:02end uh but for now I just want to say [ __ ] it's depressing yeah it's one of those ones
- 1:01:08that's been on my list and never read it it's I farad height 4551 was so
- 1:01:14unsuccessful as a rider yeah for so long he had basically
- 1:01:19entire walls of his house covered in rejection slips huh um he's a great
- 1:01:23Rider and then yeah he's this the guy that wrote fenite 451 so it just goes to
- 1:01:28show that you know everyone around you can tell you your writing's no good and
- 1:01:31then somehow if you keep persevering you just get better and bang yeah well I
- 1:01:36mean the Martian Chronicles he wrote as well and that's [ __ ] amazing you
- 1:01:40should read that if you have not I have not read it Ray Bradbury has never
- 1:01:45driven a car but he did drive the uh the Mars
- 1:01:51rover that's awesome he's dead now I think
- 1:01:57yeah only just he died last year or the year before yeah well yeah he's a great
- 1:02:03yeah1 it's [ __ ] depressing so far uh it's great it's very interesting but gez
- 1:02:08it's uh it's depressing he's a bit of a lunatic though he's another one of those
- 1:02:13crazy sci-fi riders that just literally you know well not literally that just
- 1:02:18lives on another planet yeah that's right well the Martian Chronicles is
- 1:02:22great because it's it was written at a time when kind of like were and they
- 1:02:28were chronicling they their [ __ ] no no but it's like John Carter of Mars yeah
- 1:02:33exactly and so it talks about how we get you know people get to Mars it's about
- 1:02:38how they colonize Mars in rocket ships and they people just get out of the
- 1:02:41rocket ship and like walk around and and stuff because it's you know they didn't
- 1:02:45know how would they know exactly it's it's excellent it's it's really cool
- 1:02:49it's and it's a sequ it's a series of short stories um about the colonists on Mars
- 1:02:56basically and and the Martians and I don't want to give too much away cuz if
- 1:03:00I say anything it's going to because it's got this kind of big overarching
- 1:03:04story but they're all individual little stories that are really great so yeah I
- 1:03:09recommend it sweet all right yeah but bear that in
- 1:03:13mind some of it is a bit silly in that it's kind of naive and you kind of just
- 1:03:18have to go with it like it doesn't make any sense but then it's science fiction
- 1:03:22from so long ago that you know you know what I mean like got to read it
- 1:03:28in the historical context that was written you know yeah exactly it's a
- 1:03:30little bit goofy in Parts but it's it's not but it only is because we know
- 1:03:34better now yeah exactly you're forgetting that in John in the John
- 1:03:38Carter books you get to Mars by falling asleep and waking up on Mars yeah yeah
- 1:03:44that's what I mean so some of it's a bit like it it's yeah yeah I think it makes sense
- 1:03:51it's all right guys well um we're going to have to end it there CU I got 3% battery left
- 1:03:56oh save save save yeah all right stop and save all right stop and save that's
