• 0:14
  let's get to this week's show. My
• 0:22
  wallet is sobbing. I can hear it in the hall
• 0:25
  now. It is breaking down, going. It
• 0:33
  turns out that Attila, the arrogant so -and -so, he's
• 0:37
  got a fake hammer. A fake? Whoa!
• 0:41
  As I say, dick. Welcome to the Eurolegion's podcast,
• 0:51
  episode number 63. Sounds good, huh? 63.
• 0:58
  It's six off the magic number. We're
• 1:03
  going to go mouse -smoot straight away. Starting
• 1:05
  strong. Oh my goodness. Yeah,
• 1:12
  so this is episode 63. Tonight
• 1:15
  we've got an interview with the mythic enablers. So
• 1:19
  you've seen them probably on the Legion's lounge this
• 1:22
  week already. So we chatted to them, I
• 1:25
  think, even before they're going on that show. And
• 1:27
  then it was great. We tried to cover some maybe
• 1:31
  different ground that they were going to cover on the
• 1:33
  Legion's lounge. So hopefully you will enjoy
• 1:37
  that chat. Yeah, and we just got a few
• 1:43
  things to talk about before we get over to them. So
• 1:46
  we won't keep you too long. First
• 1:49
  thing I've got to say is welcome, Mal, even though
• 1:52
  we've talked already. How are you? I
• 1:55
  am all good, thank you. Always
• 1:57
  fun to record. Yeah, busy days at work. They're
• 2:02
  not even that busy, they're just long. They're
• 2:04
  a little bit tedious at the moment. It's
• 2:07
  that time of the year, isn't it? We're
• 2:10
  not quite into summer yet. I
• 2:13
  feel like I'm in a holding pattern waiting for... Nice
• 2:17
  one. Just to open up a little bit
• 2:20
  more for me. And Rich has cracked you? Fine,
• 2:25
  work is extremely busy at the moment. And
• 2:28
  it's end of year review time as well. So
• 2:30
  I've got my own tomorrow and I'm going to do my
• 2:32
  staffs at the moment. Which are the most tedious things
• 2:35
  at the moment. Do you run to the end of
• 2:37
  April? No, run to the end of March.
• 2:39
  But you got to the end of
• 2:40
  April to actually do the review. So
• 2:44
  maybe me and I have left them until last minute.
• 2:46
  Well, that's fine. That's
• 2:48
  no surprise to us. To be fair, Rich, I haven't
• 2:53
  had mine. We haven't done it as yet.
• 2:55
  And the manager keeps
• 2:55
  apologising and we're all just like... Yeah.
• 3:00
  None of us are end of year review kind of guys
• 3:03
  in my team. I'm not sure I'm going to get
• 3:07
  much out of it. So you know what? I
• 3:09
  can lung finger that. Yeah, I couldn't give a flying
• 3:12
  fudge about mine. It's just like, whatever. Box
• 3:16
  ticking. We don't get bonuses. No,
• 3:19
  exactly. It seems like we got rid of
• 3:20
  the bonuses. It's all about related. Yeah,
• 3:22
  it seems like we got rid of the bonuses. I
• 3:23
  lost all interest in end of year reviews. Exactly.
• 3:27
  There's no incentive for anything. But
• 3:32
  what there is incentive for is the mystery boxes. And
• 3:35
  that went up on sale on Monday. And
• 3:41
  I wasn't tempted at all. I did just do my usual put
• 3:45
  one in the basket, just see what shipping would be.
• 3:48
  But it was pretty good. It
• 3:49
  was 30. So that was pretty good. You
• 3:53
  guys in the UK were the same. But
• 3:55
  in the end, I'm saving my cash for future drops from
• 4:01
  the horsemen and whatever else. For
• 4:04
  the dragon. I, as you know, decided I'd
• 4:10
  give it a go. So that less than 30 shipping
• 4:12
  convinced me to have a pop and see what I got. If
• 4:17
  it's not what I want, stick it on the UK Cabal.
• 4:22
  It's just less than 45 quid. I
• 4:24
  think it comes to figures or trade. Yeah,
• 4:30
  our custom parts. So it's not the worst. I
• 4:34
  think the key difference for me with you guys was
• 4:37
  that you can order one figure probably without
• 4:41
  getting customs fees. Whereas
• 4:44
  I get customs on the first euro. So
• 4:47
  yeah, it wasn't really worth it. I
• 4:50
  think it also made, there was more chance of me
• 4:53
  getting something I hadn't got. That's
• 4:56
  true as well. So kind of made, you know, I
• 4:59
  understand why you guys decided against it. Yeah,
• 5:03
  I was going to say for the first time ever, my
• 5:05
  wallet is not sobbing at the moment. It
• 5:07
  is quite happy and content. It's
• 5:09
  like, yeah, no money spent on mystery boxes. There
• 5:11
  you go. Exactly. Few more good things coming
• 5:16
  up. My birthday is in a few
• 5:17
  weeks. So I'm hoping they may be
• 5:18
  announced something around that time early May. For
• 5:23
  a second, I thought, I was a hint you wanted me to
• 5:24
  buy you something. No, no. Well,
• 5:27
  if your wallet's happy, then yeah, my birthday's
• 5:29
  coming up. Your present to me is turning
• 5:32
  up on time every week. You're
• 5:34
  doing awesome. I'm sorry, I'm such a shite
• 5:37
  friend in terms of presence. No,
• 5:41
  there is a margin for error here. You
• 5:43
  know, if you ever run statistics, there is a
• 5:45
  little margin for error. I was on time today. Yeah,
• 5:50
  true. I did actually think for a
• 5:52
  second we should have done this bit because we just
• 5:55
  let people listening in behind the scenes a little
• 5:58
  bit. I did actually think that we
• 6:00
  should just do this intro with me and John and we
• 6:02
  could comment that Rich is cooking up for me. So
• 6:07
  the interview, people will get the start of that when
• 6:10
  they hear the interview. We do have to warn the same
• 6:12
  shirts and everything and that's the organization for
• 6:16
  that. Well, I did. It's
• 6:18
  just a hoodie, you know. There
• 6:19
  you go. Too much of the inside
• 6:23
  knowledge there. You're getting cut, Mal. That's
• 6:26
  what he's saying. That bit's getting cut. No,
• 6:28
  no, no, no, no, no. I like it. It's
• 6:30
  staining. Right. So a couple of things to
• 6:33
  get to before because they know that Trevor and the
• 6:37
  boys kept them backstage a long time before getting
• 6:41
  the enablers on. So we're not going to do that
• 6:42
  quite to them. I wanted to do a couple of
• 6:47
  topics before we go into that. The
• 6:50
  number one is we're going to intern. Woohoo!
• 6:56
  All three of us. We were very kindly invited by
• 7:00
  the studio. So we did apply for intern.
• 7:04
  We didn't get selected in that
• 7:06
  kind of draw, in the public draw, so to speak.
• 7:08
  But we got invited as we do
• 7:12
  podcasts in the community and they felt that they
• 7:16
  would like to invite us. So
• 7:18
  we're very, very excited and happy about that. And
• 7:22
  that will mean that we'll be there a day earlier
• 7:25
  than last year, which is cool. Maybe
• 7:28
  give us more time to get in or you'll be on the
• 7:30
  same schedule. I'll be on the same schedule.
• 7:32
  Yeah. But as you've been there
• 7:34
  before, you can kind of chill on the intern day.
• 7:37
  You don't need to be as hyper
• 7:38
  excited as me. Oh, well, I'll still be very
• 7:40
  excited. I might spend a little longer
• 7:42
  with the breakfast table than I did last time, to
• 7:44
  be honest. If I don't have to rush to
• 7:46
  anything, that was a good set of breakfast goodies.
• 7:50
  Hey, there you go. There's
• 7:51
  something to look forward to on top of everything
• 7:53
  else. You can maybe do a little bit
• 7:55
  more poking your head behind curtains to see what
• 7:58
  you can see. No, absolutely not. I
• 8:02
  will be wearing a pair of like, the horses wear like
• 8:05
  the side things. So they can't be blinkers.
• 8:08
  I'll be wearing a pair of those
• 8:09
  and just following whoever the guide is so I can't
• 8:12
  be accused of seeing anything too soon. Staying
• 8:17
  within two or three yards of Jeremy so that he knows
• 8:21
  at all times you're behaving yourself. I
• 8:24
  was really well behaved last time I walked in, I
• 8:25
  saw that giant, or you were, the Olek statue.
• 8:28
  Jeremy Dragby to the giant Olek
• 8:30
  statue, in fact, showed it to me. And
• 8:33
  then I was like, yeah, brilliant. I
• 8:35
  will keep my mouth shut about that. Yeah,
• 8:38
  you didn't even tell us, I don't think. No,
• 8:41
  that's because I'm, you know, good lad. Probably
• 8:44
  because you were off drinking somewhere else. I
• 8:47
  mean, I couldn't rule that out either, to be honest.
• 8:51
  So that's awesome. So
• 8:53
  yeah, thank you Jeremy and the studio for that honor.
• 8:57
  You guys will love it. It's
• 8:59
  such such a good day. It's just like a, everything's
• 9:03
  just like a wow, wow, wow, something. Yeah,
• 9:07
  exactly. Even my kids were impressed when
• 9:09
  I told them so that's something. Yeah,
• 9:13
  and then a couple of other quick things. We
• 9:16
  wanted to remind all you West Coast American people
• 9:19
  about the mythic legions, the mythic meetup, second
• 9:24
  annual in Sacramento, California at toyfusion .com.
• 9:30
  That's 2230 Arden Way and 1574
• 9:35
  Howe Avenue Sacramento. So that'll be May 4th and
• 9:41
  5th. You got a lot of cool people
• 9:44
  there, including is Walter, is Ramirez Walter Hagen and
• 9:53
  Nate Barge. A few others that I know
• 9:56
  that'll be there. Eric Lebron, I'm sure he's
• 10:00
  there. I think I saw a poster is
• 10:01
  was saying that Eric will be there. I
• 10:04
  think there was some others there last year. I'm
• 10:07
  not sure if they're this year, like Dave Williams
• 10:09
  and those guys. I think the Arizona boys are
• 10:12
  there last year. Wyatt said he was going. There
• 10:14
  he goes. So Wyatt, who we're going to
• 10:16
  be talking to very soon, he'll be gone. So
• 10:18
  all those West Coast guys. So
• 10:20
  if you're anywhere on the West Coast that's within
• 10:23
  range of Sacramento, give it a whiz. Here's
• 10:29
  the whiz. We're a short flight as Nate's
• 10:33
  flying to do it. That's just flying. That's
• 10:37
  true, but he is part of the studio. So
• 10:40
  I suppose it is kind of work, but yeah, I would
• 10:45
  fly if I was anywhere within a couple of hours.
• 10:47
  Definitely. Same. Yeah.
• 10:48
  If I had infinite funds, this is one I would
• 10:51
  definitely go along to some very cool people. I'll
• 10:55
  tell you what, boys, if I win 150 million on the
• 10:57
  Euro millions, I'll buy a private jet and the three
• 10:59
  of us can fly over to whatever we fancy. Every
• 11:02
  event. Every event. Just
• 11:04
  tell the family, I'm just off for the weekend. We
• 11:05
  just do a different location every week to
• 11:08
  record the show. Wherever it shows up once. We
• 11:14
  can just fly to each Patron's house. Right.
• 11:22
  And then the last thing I wanted to talk about very
• 11:24
  quickly for those House of the Nobel Bear fans. I'm
• 11:27
  sorry for everybody else. I stumbled across this cool
• 11:32
  Kickstarter by these guys in France. It's
• 11:38
  called Barbarians from Coventry. It's
• 11:39
  a very known and to he man. So
• 11:42
  it's a it's basically a cinematic history of that
• 11:45
  period. And also the it's called the
• 11:49
  colonization or something of. Conan'sploitation.
• 11:53
  Conan'sploitation. Sorry. Of the era. So
• 11:58
  anyone that's into that kind of era stuff. It's
• 12:02
  a basically a coffee table book. And
• 12:05
  it originally was in French and the Kickstarter is for.
• 12:09
  The basically the English
• 12:10
  version of this book. There's
• 12:11
  a very. Well known. Conan
• 12:15
  expert. An expert from the era who.
• 12:19
  Translates. These kind of books from
• 12:21
  French to English and they're very well done. And
• 12:24
  the book was 25 euros for me with three euros
• 12:27
  shipping. So. 28 euros for me for a
• 12:31
  really cool coffee table book. I
• 12:33
  think my your shipping was maybe a couple of euros
• 12:35
  more but not much. Yeah. I think it was about five
• 12:37
  euros. But yeah. I
• 12:38
  mean that's nothing. Is it for a book could be
• 12:41
  and it'll be a. Decent sized book. Yeah.
• 12:44
  So by the time this pod goes out this 24 days to
• 12:47
  go as we record now on. Tuesday.
• 12:49
  And there'll be probably 1920 to go. By
• 12:53
  the time. You listen to this. So
• 12:57
  yeah. Have a look at it if it's
• 12:58
  that's your thing. Just thought it was really cool.
• 13:01
  And they also offer a chance
• 13:02
  to get their previous release. Which
• 13:04
  is after the world ends. And
• 13:07
  a post apocalyptic movies. From.
• 13:11
  A similar era. 70s and 80s. And
• 13:13
  is this a. This is a Kickstarter is it.
• 13:17
  Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
• 13:19
  It's a Kickstarter and it's 38 ,000 already. Out
• 13:24
  of their 1000. Gold. So they're making it. And
• 13:29
  they have all sorts of other stuff like. Mouse
• 13:32
  mats and stickers and. Pins and all this kind of stuff
• 13:35
  you could get on top. For the basic and there's a.
• 13:39
  If you're looking at this,
• 13:40
  there's a basic idea of the layout of the books.
• 13:42
  So. Looks pretty cool. Have
• 13:44
  to say. My favorite extra which I did
• 13:47
  get the one that. They don't give you all of them
• 13:49
  but with a. Coasters beer coasters. Oh
• 13:53
  yeah. Post as old Italian. Style.
• 13:58
  Post as on because I mean I don't know all the
• 14:00
  information behind it. But in Italy quite often they
• 14:03
  would have their own. Post as for for these films
• 14:06
  wouldn't they and. Yeah. Become a bit of an art.
• 14:09
  In themselves so that that'll
• 14:10
  be cool. I think I'll. Stick
• 14:12
  them in a frame. Very good. So
• 14:18
  that's that if you're into that. I
• 14:19
  thought it was worth a shout out. We
• 14:21
  both backed it here rich. Just.
• 14:24
  Kind of. Bad. But I was going to say
• 14:26
  you know it's. It's a coffee table book or a
• 14:29
  toilet read book. And if you're running out of
• 14:31
  toilet paper then you got instant. You
• 14:33
  know ways to deal with the thing as well so there we
• 14:35
  go. Well. On that note. Things
• 14:40
  can only get better and. They
• 14:42
  probably are going to get better as we. Go
• 14:45
  over and talk. To the mythic enablers. So.
• 14:53
  We have some very special guests here at your
• 14:56
  allegiance this week. At this stage by the time you
• 14:59
  hear this episode they'll have been all over the
• 15:01
  place. They'll have had their web so it
• 15:02
  out for this week. They'll have been on Legion's
• 15:04
  lounge. And now they're going to be on
• 15:07
  our show. And who knows what they're
• 15:09
  maybe they're on mythic conversations and. Whatever
• 15:12
  else goes on during the week as well. I
• 15:13
  don't know. So anyway it's the mythic
• 15:15
  enablers so we have. I'll take it from the top of
• 15:18
  the screen so we have Joe bro Russo. How
• 15:20
  are you Joe. I'm. I'm. Evening.
• 15:23
  Evening gentlemen. I guess it's evening your end
• 15:25
  over there. Mid afternoon over here. How's
• 15:27
  it going. It's good. I
• 15:30
  wouldn't normally call you Joe bro but you know I
• 15:31
  have to go away what you put on the screen you
• 15:33
  know. It's okay. You
• 15:35
  can come right over your what. Love
• 15:38
  the shades. Love the shades. I
• 15:39
  didn't realize it was comedy glasses day
• 15:42
  otherwise. You trying to impress cosmic
• 15:45
  Mal or what. Yeah. I had to put on my cosmic
• 15:50
  goggles. Well I wouldn't yet the next
• 15:53
  time you have a cosmic episode I think I'm going
• 15:54
  to steal Eric. That's that's a good idea. He's
• 15:56
  the man. And we have Wyatt. We
• 15:59
  have Wyatt my buddy. Hey. He's the John of mythic
• 16:04
  enablers. I can't call myself the John.
• 16:08
  I haven't reached your level
• 16:10
  yet. You're way better looking that's
• 16:11
  for sure. You have that going for you.
• 16:15
  Well it doesn't say much but
• 16:16
  it's a good idea. I don't know what you eat as
• 16:16
  a job. Oh man. Well
• 16:23
  I'm happy to be here. I'm having a fanboy moment
• 16:25
  here. I love your podcast. Oh
• 16:28
  cool cool. Well hopefully we'll get to meet
• 16:30
  in person in November so that'll be fun. We're
• 16:33
  all booked up anyway so. Barring
• 16:35
  disasters. And you're all the way over
• 16:37
  there in the west coast. So
• 16:39
  I was going to say it's good morning for you. Is
• 16:41
  it yeah? Have you had breakfast yet? 11
• 16:43
  or something. I did. I
• 16:45
  did have some breakfast. I've
• 16:46
  been watching. I had some breakfast and then
• 16:48
  I watched an episode of Shogun. Have
• 16:51
  you guys seen that yet? Oh I watched the first episode
• 16:53
  I think. Yeah really really good show. I
• 16:56
  haven't had time to get into so many good things
• 16:58
  at the moment. Yeah. It's tough. I
• 17:01
  love watching Richard eat his dinner while we're
• 17:06
  talking about breakfast at the bottom of the screen
• 17:09
  there. Worldwide. He did shoot me a message
• 17:11
  about an hour before recording. Said
• 17:13
  I'm on dinner duty this evening and I was like
• 17:15
  okay I'm past experience. He
• 17:17
  might not show up. That would be very rude for a
• 17:20
  guest. So like. My
• 17:22
  lady wife does most of the culinary stuff in this
• 17:25
  house. There's a reason for that. Yeah
• 17:28
  because usually the house is in flames by the time
• 17:30
  you're done. Yeah pretty much. You
• 17:32
  know it's not that he hasn't made the dinner on
• 17:34
  time. It's that he's burnt down the
• 17:35
  house and that's why he can't podcast. Yeah.
• 17:40
  So I'm quite happy that he's just here. Eat
• 17:42
  away Rich. Just put yourself on mute.
• 17:44
  Nobody knows. Anyway
• 17:46
  back to the main event. We have Eric Miller. I
• 17:51
  knew of Eric very well before they started the
• 17:54
  mythic neighbors because he was quite a prominent guy
• 17:57
  in the community with all the customizing and we did
• 17:59
  have him on the show last year in the run up to
• 18:01
  Legion's Con. So not his first time on the
• 18:04
  show but first time as part of the mythic
• 18:07
  enablers. So how are you Eric? I'm
• 18:10
  doing great. I'm happy to be here. I
• 18:12
  didn't think I was going to be able to make it.
• 18:13
  Yeah. Yeah Noah messaged me
• 18:17
  saying do you mind if Eric makes it? No
• 18:19
  he's actually had to change your plans. I
• 18:20
  was like yeah of course he can make it. So
• 18:24
  that was awesome. Yeah so great to have you and
• 18:27
  great to see that you're part of the enablers and
• 18:30
  we get to hear a lot more about what's going on. Not
• 18:33
  just you showing up in November with these awesome
• 18:35
  customs. Who's this guy? Yeah
• 18:38
  I've had a lot of fun just hanging out with my
• 18:40
  friends so it's been great. It's
• 18:42
  nice to just kind of get that chat in person rather
• 18:45
  than just in text isn't it? I
• 18:49
  gotta say killing me gushing over the mesco
• 18:51
  turtles. I already got cancelled when
• 18:56
  there were due to be delivered and so I'm like
• 18:59
  really sore about them. I had an update too Mal. My
• 19:03
  order got cancelled as well. Really?
• 19:07
  Enablers first. Oh Noah's shown them. Oh
• 19:10
  my god. Who did you order from? Like
• 19:14
  a retailer? They're a retailer. They
• 19:18
  have a couple places, a couple like actual brick
• 19:21
  and mortar spots in the states. I
• 19:23
  had never ordered from them before but like I saw that
• 19:26
  they were one of the people that still had them
• 19:28
  up for pre -order when they were kind of starting to
• 19:30
  appear. So I was just like okay I'll
• 19:32
  place it and we'll see and it took about a month and
• 19:35
  then they were like well we're getting another round
• 19:37
  from the distributor and they said they only got
• 19:40
  half of their fulfillment and so I was SOL there
• 19:43
  which sucks. So I feel you man. Yeah
• 19:47
  place I ordered it from. I mean I pre -ordered it back
• 19:50
  in November last year but they apparently only got
• 19:54
  like their orders that they put in in March or
• 19:56
  something of the previous year. Wow.
• 19:58
  That stings, that sucks. You've
• 20:01
  heard it way ahead. That is a tough one about this
• 20:07
  retailer model sometimes. At least with the horseman
• 20:10
  okay it might take longer but if you order direct
• 20:13
  from them you're probably not going to get it
• 20:14
  shorted because even if they short you they're just
• 20:17
  going to turn on the factory again. Machines.
• 20:22
  That's totally true. I've never had that issue with
• 20:24
  the horseman. And also Mesco or they don't
• 20:26
  communicate so they probably have loads of people
• 20:29
  complaining directly to them and they just shut it out.
• 20:32
  They don't care either. That's
• 20:35
  always turning me off for Mesco. Happily
• 20:37
  sitting there with his Mesco turtles. Boo.
• 20:41
  With a really cool background and all you've
• 20:44
  upgraded he asked me if we were going to maybe put
• 20:47
  this on YouTube and I said yes probably and yeah he's
• 20:50
  gone to the fancy, cool, nerdy part of the house. I
• 20:52
  love it. I don't know what was it. I
• 20:56
  sent you a message maybe an hour ago I set all
• 20:59
  this up specifically for you guys. Wow.
• 21:03
  You're welcome. Just built the dial and then
• 21:07
  put the video games and the toys and whatever else
• 21:09
  on it. Or is it just toys? It's
• 21:11
  just toys. Okay cool. That's
• 21:13
  better. Very good. And
• 21:17
  how's the crack with you otherwise? Crack
• 21:20
  is all good here. Yeah. Weather is real good.
• 21:23
  Everybody is healthy. I
• 21:25
  can't ask for more. Cool. And you managed to track
• 21:28
  down the turtles. Have you managed to track down
• 21:31
  the spice bag yet in Minnesota? No.
• 21:34
  You know what? I haven't found the spice
• 21:36
  bag. If anybody out there can point
• 21:40
  me towards good spice bag here on the state side.
• 21:45
  I'm sure it exists. You've
• 21:46
  got everything over there. I'm
• 21:49
  not familiar with what a spice bag is. What
• 21:51
  are we talking about? Can I just say a spice bag in
• 21:55
  Ireland is very, very different to what we term
• 21:58
  spice bag in this country. This
• 22:00
  country is illegal and it's made by chemists. So
• 22:05
  yeah. This is the Irish one we're
• 22:07
  talking about. So we're getting banned in the
• 22:09
  UK now for that. It's basically you get it
• 22:14
  usually from a Chinese restaurant and it's like
• 22:18
  french fries, crispy chicken so usually like kind of
• 22:21
  breaded chicken and then kind of veggies like
• 22:25
  peppers, onion, stuff like that and loads of spices
• 22:29
  mixed into it. Interesting. And you just eat out of
• 22:33
  the bag? Yeah, traditionally you get it on
• 22:35
  the way home from the pub but they have kind of
• 22:37
  turned it into now one that you can just get in
• 22:40
  the restaurant on a plate. That
• 22:41
  actually does sound like... That
• 22:45
  sounds like something that would be very good after
• 22:47
  drinking. Yeah, absolutely. Mickey
• 22:49
  wants to drink more to be honest. That's
• 22:52
  our version of Taco Bell. Slab
• 22:55
  by the old Slab by the old Taco Bell, White Castle
• 22:58
  Yeah, pistol burgers Mickey D's grabs something crazy
• 23:02
  to go down and then pass out. Yeah,
• 23:05
  we all know this. We need a food truck to come
• 23:09
  up to that hotel at Legion's Con at around
• 23:11
  midnight. Be great. I
• 23:13
  mean, there is a good restaurant there and all
• 23:15
  but I just want something really dirty. What
• 23:17
  are you talking about, John? We're
• 23:19
  all a bunch of choir boys at Legion's Con. We'll
• 23:21
  just drink and you're having fun or partying.
• 23:24
  Sorry. Although if you go to the
• 23:27
  My Wife's Gonna Kill You show you get free pizza so
• 23:29
  that's good. If you can get in there in
• 23:30
  time to eat it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was good.
• 23:35
  I remember when we I almost
• 23:38
  said we as if I'm a part of the studio when the
• 23:40
  studio switched to doing Legion's Con at the new
• 23:44
  hotel a couple years ago I made a post in the cabal
• 23:48
  that year and when they announced it and I said,
• 23:52
  alright, which lobby are we drinking in? And
• 23:55
  like I got a bunch of likes and comments and then
• 23:56
  Jeremy actually responded and was like, sorry, White,
• 23:59
  we can't do any drinking in the lobby this year.
• 24:01
  Please don't drink in the lobby.
• 24:03
  Aww. Aww. Yeah,
• 24:07
  it's still out in any ways. It
• 24:09
  turned out okay. I think once you behave with
• 24:13
  those things you usually get away from them. I
• 24:15
  get away with them. Very good guys. Well,
• 24:20
  as you're going to be on Legion's Lounge and as I'm
• 24:22
  sure everyone listens and watches Legion's Lounge,
• 24:26
  they're going to hear more your origin story and if
• 24:28
  they listen to your wonderful show, which they
• 24:30
  should they've heard your origin story so we won't
• 24:32
  go too much into that with us today. But
• 24:37
  I did want to talk a little bit about how maybe
• 24:39
  I was involved a little bit at the start with you
• 24:41
  guys and also how originally I had chatted
• 24:45
  with Noah at Legion's Con and then afterwards about
• 24:49
  the podcast and he was really interested in that
• 24:53
  and kind of he even came up and did that live
• 24:57
  stream with us, didn't you, with the Legion's Lounge
• 24:59
  guys. So that was kind of your jam
• 25:01
  so I was like, okay, this guy I know this guy wants
• 25:04
  to start the show and I didn't really realize that
• 25:07
  you had this kind of group of, you know, that's group
• 25:09
  within the community. I mean, I knew you had loads
• 25:12
  of friends within the community, but I didn't
• 25:13
  understand the enablers thing and obviously when I
• 25:16
  heard about it, I was like, okay, that's that's a
• 25:18
  podcast right there. That's awesome. And
• 25:22
  then it started off with just you wanted to kind
• 25:24
  of, you really did it right. It
• 25:26
  took time, but you asked me for advice on the
• 25:29
  equipment that everyone should get within reason.
• 25:31
  Obviously, you know, of course we
• 25:32
  could all just buy, you know, throw money at the
• 25:35
  problem but there is a balance especially when
• 25:39
  especially when, you know, you don't know if you're
• 25:41
  going to, you don't know if you're going to do it
• 25:43
  or you know, even like I'm a bit of a gearhead, but
• 25:46
  even I didn't invest that much until we had a good
• 25:49
  few episodes done and I was like, okay, this is a
• 25:51
  thing now. I, you know, if I do buy
• 25:53
  something, I'm probably going to get good use out
• 25:56
  of it. Not going to be sitting there
• 25:57
  going, I remember when I did that. And
• 25:59
  then I bought that couple of hundred dollars thing
• 26:01
  and now it's like yeah, just not being used. Yeah.
• 26:05
  I ended up with two webcams because I placed an
• 26:08
  order and one did not arrive fast enough and I
• 26:10
  got frustrated and went to Target and bought the other
• 26:12
  one and then that expired on the return for the
• 26:16
  first one and I'm too lazy to return the Amazon one
• 26:18
  so now I got two. Which is completely totally ironic
• 26:21
  because we're a podcast and you can't see us anyway so
• 26:23
  the guy doesn't even matter. It
• 26:25
  doesn't even matter. It's good to see each other and
• 26:29
  I think that's the important thing. I
• 26:31
  mean, I put the podcast up on YouTube now but as I
• 26:34
  was saying, it's more because I found a workflow
• 26:36
  that works but I still 100 % prioritize the audio. You
• 26:40
  know, if someone's webcam is crappy or doesn't work
• 26:42
  or, you know, we don't have slides to talk
• 26:45
  through, you know, I'll just use the video as it
• 26:49
  is and won't worry too much about it and I'm
• 26:51
  still just editing really the audio because I think
• 26:55
  in the future we would like to see like to add
• 26:57
  an occasional video component to like how you
• 26:59
  guys do it. You guys really do it well.
• 27:02
  Yeah, I mean, I definitely think
• 27:03
  you guys could live stream the odd time. Obviously
• 27:06
  we do it kind of to do giveaways and stuff like
• 27:10
  that so I think that's a fun way to do it. The
• 27:13
  live stream thing though every week is kind of
• 27:18
  there's a lot of people at it and I think there's not
• 27:21
  enough people doing podcasts in relation to that and
• 27:24
  podcasts for me can be more timeless like someone
• 27:27
  could find our show and probably go back to maybe
• 27:30
  not the start at this point but maybe you know
• 27:32
  10 or 15 episodes and it's still kind of is listenable
• 27:36
  whereas live streams you generally just go forward
• 27:39
  to the next one you know and follow it so and it's
• 27:43
  very easy to pick up and like I've had times where
• 27:45
  I sometimes will watch some of your episode on YouTube
• 27:48
  and then listen to it also like through the podcast
• 27:51
  player Yeah, I'm double -dibbling on your religions
• 27:53
  right and I bump those numbers and bump those I'm
• 27:57
  bumping those numbers up for you guys and it's just
• 28:00
  nice to have the podcast option too where like I
• 28:02
  can just pick that up and take it with me and not
• 28:04
  have you know that's my type of the YouTube player
• 28:06
  open you know that's my thing because I do a lot
• 28:08
  of stuff during the day where I can be listening
• 28:10
  to stuff and they do a good bit of driving as
• 28:13
  well so you know it's great to have something to
• 28:16
  listen to and then I feel that when people are you
• 28:20
  know when it's a live stream that's all cool in
• 28:22
  that but it's way cooler to be there at the time
• 28:24
  to listen to live stream because you get the chance
• 28:26
  to chat and and also people's comments whereas if
• 28:29
  you're listening back to a live stream you're like
• 28:31
  what are the... sometimes they don't even maybe if
• 28:34
  you're not looking at screen you don't see what
• 28:36
  comment or if they don't put the comment up you're
• 28:37
  kind of get lost you know whereas if you're sitting
• 28:40
  there in the live chat at the time it kind of works
• 28:42
  better. Yeah Well if we take a look at
• 28:44
  our chat real quick Noah just said Rich's dinner
• 28:46
  looks pretty good but we do have a bit of a live
• 28:48
  chat going on We do have a little mini live chat
• 28:50
  going that people can't see all to this side I like
• 28:54
  it when you get when you get a YouTube show and
• 28:56
  they post the comment that they're talking about like
• 28:58
  Jeremy's show and some of the other ones. Yeah
• 29:00
  Oh yeah that's cool, that is cool and especially if
• 29:03
  it's like when the four horsemen run their stream
• 29:06
  and you get a comment pinned up that's that's
• 29:09
  always quite cool. Yeah because there's 5 ,000
• 29:11
  comments flying around in there like at 120 miles an
• 29:14
  hour you can't keep up with them for sure. Yeah
• 29:16
  for sure, yeah definitely when there's a wave
• 29:18
  announcement it's like crazy yeah I think Jeremy
• 29:22
  probably goes back through the comments like the day
• 29:26
  later to kind of just gage the feedback because it's
• 29:30
  very hard at the time just as they're spinning down
• 29:33
  through it. I never thought about that
• 29:34
  but you're probably right he probably does do that
• 29:36
  Yeah well I mean he's definitely a point with
• 29:38
  this job Marketing director so I think he could
• 29:41
  definitely say it's work Yeah that's true We know
• 29:45
  Jeremy is definitely doing that. Yeah
• 29:47
  for sure Yeah it's very thorough and probably should
• 29:50
  you know He's counting how many times people say
• 29:54
  where's the dragon and he's putting them on he's
• 29:56
  putting them on a death list He calls that he's
• 30:00
  doing a list He's like I'm number one with a bullet
• 30:06
  So anyway Noah tell us how that went then when you
• 30:08
  kind of brought up the whole gear thing I mean
• 30:11
  were they like oh well I have a phone you know what
• 30:15
  are we at here or was it a little bit more No No
• 30:20
  these like as soon as I mean we all kind of
• 30:24
  started chatting about it organically I don't know
• 30:27
  exactly who who started the spark but I can say that
• 30:32
  I definitely pushed on the guys a little bit you know
• 30:35
  as far as you know gathering the gear and all
• 30:39
  that stuff but it I mean they were definitely willing
• 30:41
  it was it's just a matter of taking the time to you
• 30:45
  know to actually place the orders and things like that
• 30:48
  Noah's being massively sweet right now Yeah it was like
• 30:51
  pulling teeth Yeah it's all on board there's five of
• 30:55
  us and some of us tracked our feet some of us got
• 30:57
  it right away but Mike had to get a computer Yeah
• 31:00
  Mike had to go all the way on and buy a computer
• 31:01
  for it Yeah it's probably worth saying at this point
• 31:05
  that unfortunately Mike couldn't make it it's not
• 31:06
  that he hates us so Mike had another thing today and
• 31:11
  when you've got five people if you get four of them
• 31:14
  for the show it's probably fine we can manage Mike's
• 31:19
  out there signing Zendy autographs Yeah he's got a
• 31:23
  signing today He definitely is I was going to ask
• 31:26
  actually the enablers if Mike isn't here because he
• 31:28
  couldn't get his head onto the screen had he had a
• 31:31
  the name after him he's just like yeah I'm too big
• 31:34
  for this now here we go 100 % He started sending us
• 31:39
  paperwork to sign and I don't know all this stuff
• 31:41
  You don't want to get old enough On that I don't
• 31:45
  know if you guys remember but on like was it episode
• 31:47
  two or something you actually said I can't I
• 31:50
  forget who but someone was like oh wouldn't it be
• 31:51
  funny if they did a read into that head and included
• 31:54
  it and he was like I called it Sometimes you
• 32:00
  gotta will that stuff into the universe man But now
• 32:05
  he's got two he's got basically two figures guys
• 32:07
  one kind of pretty much official it's really not
• 32:09
  fair and look at all of us are working right now
• 32:12
  and where's this guy he's out there just giving my
• 32:16
  ties on the beach he's out there negotiating his third
• 32:19
  figure isn't he he is he's talking with Eric right now
• 32:24
  he's like oh I think you should have you should have
• 32:26
  sculpted a little bit different like this one
• 32:29
  little piece what's his favorite character type of
• 32:35
  character or is he kind of barbarian barbarians yeah I
• 32:42
  mean I have listened to all your shows but I'm
• 32:43
  trying to think I know Joe is a night man and
• 32:46
  obviously I feel like he has common knowledge he
• 32:49
  sure is Mike definitely likes his Mike likes the
• 32:54
  magic users he doesn't look like magic users too I
• 32:57
  think having one named after him probably helped
• 32:59
  that a lot but but I think well why is your
• 33:04
  Basilia like me as your favorite I mean I like
• 33:07
  nearly all of them but yeah we have to prioritize
• 33:10
  one I'm not going to do Mal on this so and Eric
• 33:15
  is you like all the creatures and monsters and
• 33:18
  all that kind of stuff you don't like the kind of
• 33:22
  plain vanilla stuff I don't like it I just don't like
• 33:26
  it but there's been ones that I've heard you talk
• 33:31
  about and then suddenly it's like oh I've heard
• 33:32
  this little aspect of it and suddenly I'm like all
• 33:34
  in on it so I love that you know it's just kind of
• 33:37
  it could be a bio piece it could be like something
• 33:40
  to do with the story or yeah love that and Noah
• 33:44
  Barbarians yeah I definitely like barbarians myself we
• 33:51
  were all we knew that was you I'll take him anyway
• 33:56
  they don't have to be the tootie barbarian either I
• 33:58
  mean I'm good with Frosetta Girls has that locked and
• 34:02
  loaded if anyone wonders what the tootie barbarian
• 34:05
  was Frosetta Girls what's her name Mal? Tigra
• 34:10
  Tigra yeah that's what I was referring to not that
• 34:12
  it's a bad figure of course but just not it's
• 34:16
  not my style I would say yeah maybe some some
• 34:20
  clothing and some armor I just don't want to have a
• 34:23
  figure that I have to explain to my kids when
• 34:25
  they come down you know because they were always in
• 34:27
  and out here and they're like why do you have this
• 34:29
  hot snap naked lady and say oh this artist he's so
• 34:32
  cool and I love all these art and they're like yeah
• 34:35
  sure it is that isn't it I'm with you there yeah
• 34:39
  it's a tricky one John you better not let your kids
• 34:42
  find that barbarian coffee table book that you're
• 34:45
  showing us before the show started I guess you could
• 34:47
  have a laugh explaining what to do with Bruce
• 34:49
  Halejo and Frank Frosetta art in there yeah I don't
• 34:52
  think they'd get past the front cover on that you
• 34:54
  see some mostly guy they were like nah nah right so
• 35:01
  you got the equipment sorted and so that took a
• 35:04
  couple of months kind of here over and back or yeah
• 35:09
  I think like it took probably a couple of months
• 35:14
  four months something like that like I was kind of
• 35:18
  wondering at some stage is like have they just met a
• 35:21
  bunch of episodes and he's afraid to tell me or not
• 35:23
  or something you know that was a dead joke so we
• 35:31
  really kind of solidified the idea of doing an
• 35:36
  actual podcast at Legion's Con I think even with
• 35:40
  Wyatt like through text through our chat group I
• 35:43
  think we all kind of decided then and there that
• 35:45
  we were going to do it so you could say last November
• 35:48
  until when did our first episode air like end of
• 35:52
  February I think but we had all our gear by the
• 35:55
  beginning that it just became a scheduling thing
• 35:57
  yeah five of us is hard to get us all together
• 35:59
  it's not but your thing is it was hard but now we
• 36:03
  all want to be there you know like now it's like
• 36:06
  actually we haven't had an episode without anybody yet
• 36:08
  yeah but it's pretty pretty also I will say like John
• 36:13
  I think you gave Noah the info about like the
• 36:15
  equipment that you use and like Noah was like leading
• 36:19
  us to the water like he was holding our hands he
• 36:21
  was sending us links on Amazon to this mic and
• 36:24
  this boom and like you know this boom arm and all
• 36:26
  this stuff like so it was right there all you had to
• 36:28
  do is click it yeah hit by so that's what I did
• 36:31
  and it was like it was wicked easy but like if he
• 36:33
  hadn't held my hand through that entire process like
• 36:35
  now forget about it and he held all of our hands
• 36:37
  through it so he made it easy for us you say I led
• 36:40
  you to water but I think what I did was I was
• 36:43
  holding your head like under the surface of the
• 36:45
  water and like there may have been a little of that
• 36:47
  too and John was the one who filled the pool yeah
• 36:52
  John filled the pool with the water Noah led us
• 36:54
  there and dunked us in yeah and then took the
• 36:57
  money out your pocket to pay for the dunking it was
• 37:02
  funny because I missed the legions con this past year
• 37:04
  which that's not the funny part and uh and I was and
• 37:11
  I was just like enjoying it vicariously through the
• 37:14
  guys through the chat and the same day like Noah's
• 37:18
  like um I think shortly before I got the message
• 37:20
  from Noah he was like hey I want to talk to you
• 37:22
  about something I texted him with the intention like
• 37:25
  separately from our group chat with the intention of
• 37:27
  being like hey Noah we should do a podcast and it
• 37:29
  was like the same time but they had already figured it
• 37:32
  out there and I didn't even know it yet um and
• 37:34
  Noah definitely afterwards like he got all the
• 37:36
  information from you which was awesome and then
• 37:38
  spearheaded our effort right to get all the gear so um
• 37:42
  it was great it was awesome but we all came
• 37:44
  together and finally made it happen absolutely yeah
• 37:48
  it's fun uh and and we went through a couple of
• 37:51
  iterations of doing it and we didn't do stream yard
• 37:55
  at first we used another service because we were
• 37:58
  audio only and I thought there's probably other
• 38:00
  things out there um but it ended up stream yard was
• 38:04
  the most reliable and it does a bit of video as
• 38:06
  well it's the other ones do video as well but yeah
• 38:09
  it just seemed to end up being the kind of price to
• 38:12
  uh reliability ratio and the quality is pretty good
• 38:16
  so I was just going to say we learned a harsh
• 38:19
  lesson when we had to record an entire episode
• 38:20
  again well that's when I started to be so bored
• 38:23
  talking through the exact same stuff we talked about
• 38:25
  two days previously it was like that's when that was
• 38:27
  episode 13 if anyone wants to ironically yeah um that
• 38:33
  was when I started to do backup recordings locally on
• 38:35
  at least on on my side and then we have everything
• 38:38
  okay it's not as editable but you have it at least
• 38:42
  uh and it was just three of you it's it's workable
• 38:45
  that's my nightmare yeah but yeah generally with
• 38:49
  stream yard I found even when we had a problem they
• 38:52
  were usually able to sort it out there was one time
• 38:54
  we had a guest that was on a phone and uh his
• 38:58
  audio didn't record and then uh had everyone else's
• 39:03
  audio except his so I had to take the kind of global
• 39:06
  track I had here and every time he spoke I had to
• 39:10
  kind of clip that in and that would be so hard John
• 39:15
  it was a pain in the bum but I had like two weeks
• 39:17
  before that episode was going up and I kept
• 39:19
  putting it off and off and I did like all the rest
• 39:22
  of the work and then I was like okay I have to
• 39:24
  do this and it was only 40 minutes so it wasn't
• 39:26
  like a full but it was like and but it was a
• 39:28
  really good chat so I was like oh well and I stream
• 39:31
  yard were like uh yes it was uh yeah I'll tell you
• 39:37
  afterwards no I mean you know like at the time we
• 39:41
  wouldn't have thought there was an issue you know and
• 39:43
  it did say recording in the corner but obviously uh
• 39:46
  because it was on a phone uh stream yard just I
• 39:49
  think it was safe to say that one John there's one
• 39:50
  of the ones who weren't mentioning names but that
• 39:52
  one we're fine to okay but he has the same name as
• 39:55
  you Rich and he likes skeletons I like skeletons
• 40:02
  oh yeah I'm picking up where you're laying down
• 40:04
  it's not what I was thinking so is that Brad
• 40:07
  or Mike thing because Mike's one that likes
• 40:08
  skeletons and Brad's got the same name as me no
• 40:10
  it's Rich Kais there's a few he's not even in the
• 40:16
  community anymore he's self -imposed so there you go
• 40:21
  Rich Kais is amazing skeleton oh yeah amazing
• 40:26
  now to get us out of the way and a super nice guy
• 40:28
  we had a great chat I have absolutely nothing he
• 40:31
  didn't do anything wrong you know it was more my
• 40:33
  side I didn't kind of pay attention or something but
• 40:36
  I was pretty sure he was uploading well that's like
• 40:39
  super impressive because not like to get into how the
• 40:42
  sausage is made but on episode two I think of our
• 40:45
  podcast John showed me how to do everything and then
• 40:48
  on episode two for some reason Joe's audio was like
• 40:51
  two and a half seconds behind or ahead of
• 40:54
  everybody else's and that was such a headache for me
• 40:57
  but it didn't make any sense because we all
• 41:01
  recorded at the same time ended at the same time and
• 41:03
  then you know I got to give some shout outs to
• 41:05
  John because I was like hey John could you know I
• 41:08
  did some work on it do you want to just like
• 41:10
  could you listen to a segment and like let me
• 41:11
  know or whatever and John was like I'll give it a
• 41:14
  check out and he edited our whole second episode
• 41:16
  for us as well so it's a little bit of a situation
• 41:21
  where it probably would have taken more time to to
• 41:23
  actually kind of figure out from there so I was like
• 41:26
  okay I'll just do it and it's probably easier and
• 41:29
  then we talk about it and go with it that way if I
• 41:36
  was maybe if I was maybe in the next street to you
• 41:39
  and could come over and we said the computer for 20
• 41:41
  minutes we'd have probably sorted it but because
• 41:44
  there's like an ocean and a huge country in between
• 41:47
  us as well yeah that was probably the easiest way
• 41:51
  but yeah but I was also happy I mean I like you
• 41:54
  guys I was happy to help I mean I love this
• 41:57
  community so you know well that's actually something it
• 41:59
  wasn't any sorry Joe I'll let you talk I swear I'll
• 42:03
  stop it wasn't any kind of thing where I was trying
• 42:07
  to grandstand or anything it was just like okay this
• 42:09
  is cool I can do this for them because we've done a
• 42:12
  bunch of episodes and I've been through all this pain
• 42:15
  and I didn't have anyone to call so it's easier no
• 42:21
  you actually said exactly what I was just going to
• 42:22
  say I was going to mention like you giving us the
• 42:25
  information about the gear and the equipment was like
• 42:27
  that was really really helpful but I think even
• 42:29
  more than that like we may have been able to force
• 42:31
  gump our way through that possibly I mean I'm sure
• 42:33
  it would have been even more painful than it was
• 42:34
  but the editing part of it like you behind the scenes
• 42:38
  like as far as your connection to our show like
• 42:40
  you have been like very important to us behind the
• 42:44
  scenes with getting getting the editing part of it
• 42:47
  down because that's that's something that I think
• 42:48
  would have been really hard for all of us to try and
• 42:51
  figure out I mean why is a wicked smart kid so I
• 42:54
  can't say he wouldn't have done it because he is a
• 42:56
  smart cookie but by having you there to help him out
• 42:59
  and having him do that behind the scenes for us
• 43:01
  is invaluable and having you there to kind of like
• 43:03
  show him all the you know the shortcuts that you
• 43:06
  figured out on your end already was awesome yeah
• 43:08
  thank you cheers no problem no problem and uh John's
• 43:11
  my Yoda in the swamp he definitely is he's on my
• 43:15
  back and I'm doing flips and stuff like that and
• 43:17
  it's great it's a great time yeah but I mean
• 43:20
  that's like that's all part of like making friends in
• 43:24
  the community and you know kind of being helpful it
• 43:27
  doesn't like other people are helpful it's you know
• 43:29
  sort of not people with figures or we just kind of
• 43:33
  uh giving people some info that you know is hard to
• 43:36
  get when you're coming from outside of the first place
• 43:39
  uh and the other thing is like at our age uh maybe
• 43:43
  not yours why are you a little bit younger uh you
• 43:46
  know making kind of new friends around your own age
• 43:50
  is it's not the easiest it's not that it's hard
• 43:53
  thing to do you can get loads of acquaintances but
• 43:55
  like people that are into the similar stuff and you
• 43:57
  can actually have a conversation that you like
• 44:00
  to have rather than you know small talk and kind
• 44:03
  of you know uh bland you know football talk or
• 44:07
  whatever you kind of you know is the generic topic
• 44:09
  that can be tricky you know there's nobody in my
• 44:13
  town or you know in the next few towns that is
• 44:16
  into this stuff so you know you're only going to
• 44:18
  find friends through the community that way for this
• 44:21
  goodness. And I think the guys can chime
• 44:23
  in too about it but we started you know we we
• 44:26
  have our group chat for a long time and then when we
• 44:29
  finally got all the equipment together to record
• 44:30
  our first episode um ever since then we kind of all
• 44:34
  hang out like after the show too you know like
• 44:36
  it's kind of become this thing where we look forward
• 44:38
  to the bi -weekly recording because it's our time to
• 44:41
  like video chat and like actually talk as friends
• 44:44
  you know because we do that all the all the time
• 44:46
  in the group chat but getting the face you know
• 44:48
  face time basically to to actually get to hang out
• 44:51
  and talk about everything like I know you guys talk
• 44:53
  about G .I. Joe's and Mo2 and other things
• 44:55
  as well um and like you know the podcast is
• 44:58
  primarily legions but we do the same thing off off
• 45:01
  show you know talk about other things we've picked
• 45:02
  up and stuff like that. Yeah
• 45:04
  and that's the way to you know be size toys yeah
• 45:08
  yeah but that's the way to sometimes drop you know
• 45:11
  there would always be too much going on with legions
• 45:14
  and sometimes drop an episode where you just have
• 45:18
  a topic to talk about you know you're not tied in
• 45:21
  you you know you got your listenership um they won't
• 45:25
  drop you because you're talking about G .I. Joe
• 45:28
  for one episode and they're not that into it they
• 45:30
  might actually be interested in actually getting to it
• 45:33
  um so that's the way we look at it as well
• 45:35
  sometimes it's like yeah let's throw you know what
• 45:38
  do we like sometimes people are especially with the
• 45:40
  five of you people are probably listening because
• 45:44
  of you guys you know um because they like one or
• 45:48
  the other and the five of you to like so you know
• 45:51
  they're gonna like one or two for sure you know
• 45:54
  maybe not you know they're listening for Eric everybody
• 45:57
  wants to hear what Eric's what Eric's up to and
• 45:59
  doing and Joe and they're just jealous they're just
• 46:03
  jealous of Joe's good looks you know he's Florida tan
• 46:07
  I joked when I when you were teaching me how to
• 46:10
  edit John and I popped into the stream yard I put
• 46:12
  my I don't know if anybody noticed it but I put my
• 46:14
  name as job security because I knew that if I
• 46:18
  learned how to edit the pod these guys can be as
• 46:21
  successful as they want but they can't get rid of me
• 46:24
  I just gotta write the curtail as the sunset I
• 46:28
  love it no we need your natural wise yeah no you're
• 46:32
  natural John I was gonna say when you said when you
• 46:35
  when you're our age except for Wyatt I noticed Joe
• 46:38
  raised his eyebrows so highly almost left his head
• 46:40
  I'm guessing you might have aged Joe slightly there as
• 46:43
  well by Goop and Mim with us no no no I'm the
• 46:47
  oldest enabler actually to be quite honest with you
• 46:51
  there you go yeah I'm the richest the oldest great
• 46:56
  the oldest your legion I am the oldest your legion
• 46:59
  yeah we have a big year this year it's gonna be 40
• 47:06
  again yes 40 for the 10th time yeah yeah he doesn't
• 47:13
  look a day over at 37 thank you know and then
• 47:18
  guys my child under the hand every second she she
• 47:21
  has she's like you're 49 you can be 50 soon you're
• 47:24
  49 you like keep it up you're relying you for for
• 47:31
  money and stuff you know she should be a bit nicer
• 47:34
  but she knows we're a soft touch so she knows she can
• 47:36
  get away with that sort of cheek fair yeah and right
• 47:42
  guys then so Noah what's it like now to be a
• 47:45
  podcaster in the community and not just the IO cool
• 47:48
  customizer guy you know is it do you have a different
• 47:51
  feeling in the community do you see the community
• 47:53
  differently is it kind of more exciting how is it
• 47:57
  since you started it you know I don't think things
• 48:01
  have changed much to be honest with you no I mean
• 48:03
  it we're all just friends talking in the end that's
• 48:08
  all it is you know it's that's all it is I don't
• 48:12
  know for sure that's all it is but when you go to
• 48:15
  legions cotton people will start talking to you in
• 48:17
  person about it and maybe that's the point then you
• 48:20
  know you had an experience kind of a little bit with
• 48:22
  that's what I was gonna say coming up to the booth
• 48:24
  right yeah let's hear from Eric I want to hear what
• 48:26
  he has to say yeah I mean it is kind of funny like
• 48:30
  when I went to musky con and people kept bringing up
• 48:34
  the podcast and I don't I don't really feel like I
• 48:37
  have a podcast like we're just kind of hanging out
• 48:39
  and people get to listen but like so many times
• 48:42
  that weekend I was like oh yeah I guess I guess we
• 48:45
  do have a podcast you know and there was like someone
• 48:48
  grabbed me for a picture one time and I was like
• 48:50
  oh I didn't really know what was going on like oh
• 48:52
  what's happening like we gotta get your picture in
• 48:53
  here you gotta get with these guys because this is
• 48:55
  everyone that has like a legions centric like show
• 49:00
  and I was like well what why are you oh yeah okay
• 49:05
  okay cool you know like it took me a second but yeah
• 49:09
  it's people brought it up a lot of people brought it
• 49:11
  up it was cool Eric the influencer he's he's
• 49:15
  starting to get used to it but I know it makes him
• 49:17
  comfortable so that's kind of why I will never not
• 49:20
  be uncomfortable by it yeah it was like two of the
• 49:26
  comments on our last week's episode was like from I
• 49:28
  think one from Blaisbear and another from maybe rick
• 49:32
  emert and they were like oh yeah I can't wait for
• 49:34
  my commute now in tomorrow morning and I'm gonna
• 49:37
  listen to show and I was like so we're going across
• 49:39
  like you know New York or wherever those guys are I
• 49:42
  think they're near New York and where you know we're
• 49:45
  sitting in traffic and this guys listen to us you know
• 49:48
  that's I listen to you guys when I drive so I
• 49:50
  live in central California on the same goes and yeah
• 49:53
  when I drive to southern California to visit family
• 49:56
  yeah which I've been doing a lot the past few months
• 49:58
  it's about three hour drive and I usually pop in two
• 50:01
  Euro legions episodes or maybe one in a quarter or
• 50:04
  something like that on the drive awesome that's an
• 50:06
  excellent yeah that's just so cool and and I find
• 50:10
  also sometimes I don't know if you get this way it
• 50:12
  you know when you've kind of finished editing the
• 50:15
  show and obviously the boys have been on to record it
• 50:17
  when you do finally publish it it's kind of hard to
• 50:21
  let it go sometimes it's like mm -hmm I should you
• 50:25
  know you know we do our posts on Facebook and
• 50:27
  whatever and you post the episode and I should just
• 50:30
  leave it but I'm always I don't know just fiddling
• 50:34
  around and seeing if someone commented on it and
• 50:36
  you know I'm like just go about your day just forget
• 50:39
  about it yeah it's hard yeah especially if you if
• 50:44
  you do something in the discussion that you think
• 50:46
  people might react to or you know or if you are
• 50:49
  for something kind of that you thought was really good
• 50:51
  you're just waiting for somebody to go you know I
• 50:55
  was gonna say that for me if it's felt like it
• 50:58
  hasn't felt super different but I think the thing that
• 51:01
  makes it stand out to me is having our group because
• 51:05
  we have the mythic enablers kind of Facebook group and
• 51:08
  and we're almost at 200 members which is pretty
• 51:11
  awesome and really yeah like rose pretty quickly
• 51:14
  which is great but it's less about that and it's
• 51:17
  more about like the kinds of discussion that we have
• 51:19
  there which is pretty fun because it almost feels
• 51:21
  like a slightly smaller cabal in a way yeah you
• 51:24
  know because people are posting things about figures
• 51:26
  and of course like we're talking about the episodes
• 51:28
  and stuff like that but people just you know hop
• 51:31
  in and speak their mind and chat about things and
• 51:33
  that's always like really fun so for me it's
• 51:35
  actually been kind of cool to just like facilitate the
• 51:38
  the conversations that are going on there you know
• 51:40
  and like yeah that feels like a cool way to get to
• 51:42
  know like the people that are listening to our
• 51:44
  episode because it's a lot of people from the
• 51:46
  community you know and like that's what we talked about
• 51:49
  too was like we were super surprised that we got you
• 51:53
  know a good response like pretty quickly and yeah you
• 51:56
  know Eric said it and Noah said it in that episode
• 51:58
  but the cabal is so supportive and just the
• 52:00
  community this community we're in is so supportive
• 52:02
  like yeah you know how dare we think that our
• 52:04
  friends wouldn't show up to like you know hang out
• 52:07
  with us and they have and it's awesome yeah I
• 52:10
  remember when we started so and okay it was just
• 52:14
  coincidental because it wasn't anything to do with
• 52:18
  Legion's cast but they hadn't done an episode in
• 52:20
  ages so I think there was people that like podcasts
• 52:23
  and we suddenly dropped a podcast on them and then
• 52:27
  was like awesome to listen to cool you know it was
• 52:30
  obviously the YouTube shows were going you know as
• 52:32
  well but like there is a bunch of people that like
• 52:35
  listening in their car and whatever so that's kind of
• 52:38
  blew me away at the start as well it was like
• 52:40
  instantly you have an audience because if you
• 52:43
  just started podcast talking about I don't know random
• 52:46
  topic it's hard to build an audience like that
• 52:49
  whereas with this stuff you already have the core now
• 52:52
  might be hard to build it you know to crazy levels
• 52:55
  from here because you know you've got the core and
• 52:59
  people are either into mythic legions or they're
• 53:01
  not you know or whatever or toy collecting so
• 53:04
  outside of that but to get the core audience is
• 53:08
  amazing it's like it's so cool yeah there's a lot of
• 53:14
  truth in that that's that makes a ton of sense too
• 53:18
  about like building the core out because there's
• 53:19
  only like you know a lot of the people you're
• 53:21
  listening to show are going to be cabal members that's
• 53:24
  like the most common place for people from mythic
• 53:27
  legions to get together and chat you'll have some
• 53:29
  probably people from outside of that but for the most
• 53:31
  part that's what's going to be and what are they like
• 53:33
  I think they're up to 6 ,000 members now something
• 53:35
  like that yeah which is a lot I mean don't get me
• 53:38
  wrong that's a huge huge amount but like you're all
• 53:40
  you're never going to get 100 % of that you're only
• 53:42
  just going to get like a percentage of that so
• 53:44
  whatever that is exponentially that's probably
• 53:46
  about how far you're going to grow the show I do
• 53:49
  wonder like what kind of listeners that you guys get
• 53:52
  on your show and like that are listening right now who
• 53:54
  are like you know either what is the cabal or
• 53:56
  they're you know they're like well I'm not in the
• 53:58
  cabal you know so I think there are those people out
• 54:01
  there because like there's a few not everybody uses
• 54:03
  Facebook anymore yeah you know yeah we like I
• 54:07
  wouldn't if it wasn't for the groups so we had a
• 54:09
  guy in Germany and he's from Romania originally
• 54:13
  cabor and he listens to us I'm sure you listen to
• 54:15
  this and he joined Instagram just to be able
• 54:19
  to send us a message to say like the show he's not
• 54:21
  even on social media but obviously he collects
• 54:23
  mythics and so yeah so that was that was awesome
• 54:27
  yeah that was just that was one of my favorite
• 54:29
  messages I got through the show that's very cool you
• 54:32
  know obviously I love all the messages we get through
• 54:34
  the show but like this was really just somebody that
• 54:36
  actually you know it was just an egg account you
• 54:39
  know there was no picture there was no nothing he
• 54:40
  obviously wasn't following anyone else he just wanted
• 54:42
  to come on to DM's about the show well that's funny
• 54:47
  John because I was checking out my the podcast insights
• 54:50
  for our show yeah and I found out that we have a
• 54:53
  listener in Luxembourg there you guys ask me yeah one
• 55:00
  listener in Luxembourg you should have two if I don't
• 55:04
  download the episode you're going to know you see
• 55:05
  that's it that's even more that will make you the
• 55:09
  third highest rated show in Luxembourg oh my god we
• 55:14
  should put that on our advertising number two show
• 55:19
  in all of Luxembourg get out of my territory get
• 55:21
  out of my yeah that'll go on the t -shirt when we
• 55:23
  finally do shirts you guys should have a number one
• 55:27
  in Luxembourg your legions shirt and we'll have a
• 55:29
  number two in Luxembourg on my face if we can get all
• 55:39
  of John's family to download our podcast and we
• 55:42
  could overtake him how cool would that be that would
• 55:46
  be pretty awesome yeah that's like some game
• 55:48
  that's some Game of Thrones podcasting right there yeah
• 55:51
  and I just get all my different devices I don't
• 55:53
  know if it counts if you're using the same
• 55:55
  account but yeah um actually it does count it
• 55:58
  I have no discount up on devices so so how'd you
• 56:01
  find there's like oh John's listening on his iPad this
• 56:03
  week I'm only mildly creeped out by you right
• 56:08
  now why isn't that weird isn't this a weird weird
• 56:12
  discussion and by mildly I mean insanely creeped out
• 56:14
  by you right well so John was talking about how
• 56:17
  addicting it is to like kind of check on the
• 56:19
  updates of the podcast and it is fun okay so here's
• 56:22
  another another fun fact I've also been staying up
• 56:25
  super late to edit the podcast and not because
• 56:27
  like it's not done in time but because like I I'm
• 56:30
  like you John where I like I've listened to it several
• 56:33
  times through and I go I should probably still cut
• 56:35
  out that or like get rid of that pause you know and
• 56:39
  it just becomes kind of fun to like you know keep
• 56:41
  tweaking on it and figuring it out and I always
• 56:46
  publish it like at three in the morning my time or
• 56:49
  something or like schedule it to publish it like one
• 56:51
  or two in the morning my time so by the morning
• 56:53
  comes I'm super tired I just let the guys handle
• 56:56
  the promotional stuff and then what I do though
• 56:58
  throughout the day is like I check on the downloads
• 57:01
  like it's so addicting to check like oh it is you
• 57:04
  know who's downloading it what country are they from
• 57:06
  and I'm sure the guys get kind of sick of it but
• 57:09
  I'll occasionally like screenshot and send
• 57:10
  something in the group chat you know no never why
• 57:14
  would you get too much fun you know it's great yeah
• 57:17
  it is but what you notice as well like all that
• 57:20
  editing that tiny stuff that you know that
• 57:22
  definitely is important from time to time but as you
• 57:25
  also get more into it there'll be less and less
• 57:27
  stuff like that to edit because people get more
• 57:29
  used to to do in it I know when there's just the
• 57:32
  three of us now on the show if we don't have
• 57:34
  guests and even what you guys here know I can
• 57:36
  already hear I don't have much to do and it's it's
• 57:41
  really easy to do the show it's only then if somebody
• 57:43
  has a you know grabs out their connection or you
• 57:46
  know if somebody says something completely wrong
• 57:49
  or you know usually me and then they'll be like ah or
• 57:53
  if I if we're using some of the buttons here my
• 57:55
  thing and press the wrong button you know that's
• 57:57
  happened of course there may or may not be a few
• 58:00
  times where I've said the wrong thing and edit and
• 58:02
  why I had to edit me out a little bit it definitely
• 58:05
  had a couple of huge flubby flubs no that's
• 58:08
  never happened what you have to do now Joe I
• 58:10
  don't know if you've done it but you know Joe's kind
• 58:12
  of very sexy intro to the podcast yeah you need to
• 58:17
  just to just record a super sweet take of that
• 58:20
  and then just use it so that he doesn't have to
• 58:23
  exercise his vocals did he tell you that before the
• 58:26
  episode because I don't know what we talked about
• 58:28
  last week that's just yeah that's that's just logical
• 58:32
  I would say no no you're totally right Joe was like
• 58:35
  can I please just do one take so I don't ever have
• 58:37
  to do this again and I'm so smart he's already he's
• 58:40
  already figured out like five episodes in I'm like
• 58:41
  you know what I'm really tired of saying this every
• 58:43
  single time can we just do once and just kind of yeah
• 58:46
  I just noticed it's always slightly different not in a
• 58:49
  bad way of course I just noticed it's like oh they
• 58:51
  haven't they haven't actually just can that yet
• 58:54
  no I tried to I'm like can we just do it from
• 58:57
  the first episode I'm like that was like my best take
• 58:59
  I did it perfectly that very first time where it
• 59:01
  just like came off the cuff and I didn't have a
• 59:03
  plan or anything and and no and and why I pointed
• 59:07
  out he's like you know you said welcome to the
• 59:10
  inaugural episode so yeah no you're gonna have to do
• 59:13
  it I can't use that one I was thinking that actually
• 59:15
  I had that thought I was like oh I could just can
• 59:17
  this for them and then he said inaugural and I was
• 59:19
  like ah I don't they've never noticed yeah the
• 59:23
  reason why I put that in there the reason why I put
• 59:26
  that in there was because I thought that we would
• 59:28
  change it every week I thought that that would be
• 59:30
  an inaugural that's the inaugural one and then I
• 59:33
  also thought maybe we would just won't have an intro
• 59:35
  like you guys don't really I mean you have the guitar
• 59:37
  which is great the thing yeah but it's not like you
• 59:40
  know there's no oh yeah yeah anything you know yeah
• 59:43
  I mean hey welcome and we go there's loads of
• 59:45
  different approaches of course you can change yeah
• 59:49
  it's as you like at this this hundredth of a doing
• 59:51
  it and there's no wrong way it's whatever works for
• 59:53
  you and now I'm heartbroken I also thought it'd be
• 59:56
  kind of fun to get rid of my my intro no my only
• 1:00:00
  contribution to the show why guy come on no I
• 1:00:04
  actually thought it'd be fun if we all did it if
• 1:00:06
  we read it like every you know everybody changed it
• 1:00:09
  every week right so like Eric read it one week and
• 1:00:11
  then no one did it another week and Mike because I
• 1:00:14
  was going to say as well that like I actually think
• 1:00:18
  it's kind of charming that we don't record it's not
• 1:00:21
  like the reuse track every time like there's something
• 1:00:23
  about that that I kind of like that it's like okay
• 1:00:25
  every time you're listening to it like this is this
• 1:00:27
  episode you know even though it's not perfect you
• 1:00:30
  know I kind of like that I think it'd be good to
• 1:00:32
  have one in the can just in case but I do like I
• 1:00:36
  know I'm going to get overruled but I did weekly
• 1:00:38
  I like the week that Joe can show you know you
• 1:00:40
  still like to have introducing you know I
• 1:00:43
  think we should force Joe to do it regardless it's
• 1:00:48
  kind of funny you know you could have like a bad idea
• 1:00:49
  boys there's something that's like no Joe you're
• 1:00:51
  doing it damn it before the show started I had
• 1:00:55
  this in the bag and now my entire crew is mutinied
• 1:00:59
  Joe I know you're on vacation with your wife but
• 1:01:02
  you're going to have to like call us up and get
• 1:01:04
  on there and you're going to have to do it she'll
• 1:01:07

• 1:01:27
  Joe you're missing the sunset Joe you're missing
• 1:01:32
  it I've seen it too many times in Florida you see a
• 1:01:40
  lot Joe uh Joe the sunset I don't look at the sunset
• 1:01:45
  because you live here like that's what I mean but you
• 1:01:48
  have the option whenever you like you know hey
• 1:01:51
  thank you for granted no the sunshine we stay out
• 1:01:56
  of the sun as much as possible we stay in the AC
• 1:01:57
  is this the best time of the year because it's not
• 1:02:01
  too hot or is it already really hot no it's actually
• 1:02:04
  nice right now but it is getting it's like yesterday
• 1:02:07
  was 94 degrees but not humid yet but like in the
• 1:02:10
  next month or two that's when the humidity is going
• 1:02:12
  to settle in and it's just going to be like you wake
• 1:02:15
  up and at like 7 a .m. in the morning it's already 79
• 1:02:18
  degrees and like 100 % humidity on the outside
• 1:02:20
  you're just like you can like cut the air with a
• 1:02:23
  knife it's so thick oh my god yeah I couldn't believe
• 1:02:26
  we went to Florida in February and like it was
• 1:02:30
  cold yeah yeah yeah this doesn't happen it's water
• 1:02:35
  people have to buy jackets sometimes they come to
• 1:02:37
  Florida on vacation like in our winter because they
• 1:02:39
  think it's like super hot all the time and like in
• 1:02:41
  the winter oh it's just mild but like we get some
• 1:02:43
  like the 30s sometimes in our winter yeah it was
• 1:02:46
  rough I left my jacket in Ohio it's 60 degrees and
• 1:02:52
  everybody in Orlando just freaks out they got parkas
• 1:02:55
  on oh that's accurate too that's exactly how it is
• 1:03:00
  in California if it gets below like 65 or something
• 1:03:03
  like that here people feel like what am I paying all
• 1:03:05
  these taxes for I'm just going to try and what is
• 1:03:08
  this hahahaha I kind of agree I have a little baby
• 1:03:13
  about it too now I understand America people
• 1:03:16
  think their taxes are to do with the weather no I
• 1:03:19
  don't now I understand the country where's the weather
• 1:03:22
  machine that's just Californians listen we're a
• 1:03:28
  different breed we got Joe in Florida and then you
• 1:03:32
  got Wyatt in California you guys are complaining about
• 1:03:34
  the sun and we're talking to a few guys in western
• 1:03:37
  Europe or over in Europe who are begging for some
• 1:03:41
  sun hahahaha we got like I've translated it to
• 1:03:47
  American so we had like 70 75 last week or a week or
• 1:03:51
  two ago and overnight on Monday and Tuesday this
• 1:03:56
  week it's going to be below 30 oh my god and my
• 1:04:00
  wife's freaking out because we have like cherry tree
• 1:04:02
  and a few other things like it's going to happen
• 1:04:05
  again that cherries are going to get like frozen
• 1:04:07
  and then they don't grow and usually we get buckets
• 1:04:11
  of it and that's obviously that's a huge thing
• 1:04:15
  whenever it's going to get cold in Florida they go
• 1:04:17
  nuts when it's going to go below zero because the
• 1:04:20
  citrus crop is such a big deal in Orlando and not
• 1:04:22
  Orlando but the whole state so when it goes down below
• 1:04:25
  like the whole ah it's going to be cold there
• 1:04:27
  that's even more serious than our cherry tree for
• 1:04:30
  sure well you're making me feel bad that my girlfriend
• 1:04:34
  offered to go to the beach later and I was just like
• 1:04:38
  nah I don't think so nah maybe tomorrow we get such
• 1:04:44
  bad weather here that when the sun comes out people
• 1:04:46
  catch fire like vampires don't go out rich is just
• 1:04:54
  you're going to be in the paddling pool when it gets
• 1:04:56
  above 20 degrees celsius aren't you 100 % yeah
• 1:05:01
  bigger than himself sorry you're bigger than the
• 1:05:04
  paddling pool but no we've got a 10 foot paddling
• 1:05:07
  pool what's the paddling pool is that a it's a
• 1:05:11
  little blow up inflatable thing you feel the water
• 1:05:15
  oh like a kitty pool like a kitty pool like a kitty
• 1:05:21
  pool but adults get them in this country oh man I
• 1:05:25
  want an adult kitty pool that sounds awesome I kind
• 1:05:29
  of want one of those rich just lies in two feet of
• 1:05:32
  water drinking beer it's like six inches deep a
• 1:05:39
  couple of years ago we had a run of a week of 30
• 1:05:43
  degrees celsius which is like what 90s here and I
• 1:05:46
  just got home from work and just clapped straight
• 1:05:48
  in the paddling pool full of clothes I'm just so hot
• 1:05:51
  just not even getting changed I love that image
• 1:05:56
  got a picture we have a picture I'm sure that would
• 1:06:01
  be perfect it would be great I think I have a
• 1:06:04
  picture I'm not going to post it don't worry Rich I
• 1:06:07
  was just going to say I'm envisioning Rich with like
• 1:06:09
  shorty shorts on and that little six inches of paddle
• 1:06:12
  pool water and the water is like it's so hot out
• 1:06:15
  the water is like already 90 degrees too and he's
• 1:06:17
  just in there like miserable he's got the yeah
• 1:06:21
  that would be a pretty good description actually
• 1:06:23
  he's glistening he looks like a barbarian just
• 1:06:26
  glistening booty short sign and he's looking good he
• 1:06:36
  got a camera I was like my house no I was like
• 1:06:42
  the james1234 is also his only fans account for
• 1:06:44
  anyone who's listening John I was actually curious if
• 1:06:51
  we could talk about the the mystery box yeah
• 1:06:56
  absolutely yeah what do you want to talk about well I
• 1:07:00
  was just curious if you guys are going to be
• 1:07:01
  grabbing any of them I know the value proposition
• 1:07:04
  is being that you know you guys are overseeing it's
• 1:07:08
  probably what's it 75 for the box probably 30 to 40
• 1:07:13
  for shipping so that's 110 plus 20 percent so you're
• 1:07:19
  talking probably 140 for the box to your door yeah
• 1:07:26
  don't need the figures that much no so yeah same for
• 1:07:33
  me it's like you know it's 115 dollars I just under
• 1:07:36
  100 pound for two figures that I might not want yeah
• 1:07:39
  and it's just like yeah that's definitely what
• 1:07:41
  they're going to be and I want to a K door that's
• 1:07:44
  the only one I really care about getting and look for
• 1:07:48
  the collection I mean obviously you could use all
• 1:07:50
  of them for customs and they're all there's a great
• 1:07:52
  selection of figures so don't need to knock that
• 1:07:55
  personally just K door and I'm pretty sure even like
• 1:07:58
  beyond the table at Legion's kind of willing to
• 1:08:00
  spend the dice on that you know or somebody or
• 1:08:03
  somebody might have it for 60 bucks and I would
• 1:08:06
  probably pay them yeah all right that reminds me I
• 1:08:10
  did listen to your guys last episode and you guys
• 1:08:14
  kind of talked about this a little bit but I I
• 1:08:17
  don't know if that was the episode where where I
• 1:08:19
  actually heard Rich talk about how he liked K door
• 1:08:23
  it probably was yeah it might well have been yeah
• 1:08:27
  explain yourself Rich yeah well I class him as a
• 1:08:35
  gladiator still not a barbarian that's why I like
• 1:08:39
  this that's fair he's from the Coliseum yeah we're
• 1:08:41
  shooting wow that's splitting hairs man I'll
• 1:08:46
  take it that's how you know he's committed I've
• 1:08:48
  got to keep my heel form up Joe that's like Joe
• 1:08:53
  like in the vampire night because it's a night yeah
• 1:08:57
  oh I actually love the vampires they're actually of
• 1:09:02
  the bad guy monster races that is my favorite that's
• 1:09:04
  like who I liked all of them yeah well I guess a
• 1:09:07
  guy that likes the knights probably vampires aren't too
• 1:09:10
  far away and if you really want to make a night there
• 1:09:13
  most of them are just a head swap out there are a
• 1:09:17
  couple of noble bear characters yeah I was just
• 1:09:21
  going to say in my defense there are a couple of
• 1:09:23
  noble bear characters I like it's just the rest of
• 1:09:24
  rubbish what other ones do you like Rich I'm curious
• 1:09:29
  though how may golden tooth is my favorite dwarf I
• 1:09:32
  remember hearing that in the recent episode that's a
• 1:09:34
  good show he's absolutely awesome he's the best one
• 1:09:37
  and I love Klaavius in a brilliant figure oh yeah
• 1:09:40
  yeah oh yeah definitely I was stuck here Atlas on
• 1:09:43
  the other hand stop it quit with the heel turn
• 1:09:49
  it's alright that's the truth we know you love
• 1:09:52
  Atlas camera pans around and they've got a wall of
• 1:09:54
  atlases I'm actually a fanboy yeah I imagine you
• 1:10:02
  ordered one from the new rising rising sunsweep well
• 1:10:06
  it was part of the all in so I had no choice good
• 1:10:10
  answer I like how you're not breaking character for
• 1:10:12
  that I don't know you must be like we were there guys
• 1:10:18
  we were there we saw him grinning at G .D. he
• 1:10:21
  was giddy wasn't he it's when the Yackoga came out
• 1:10:25
  I lost all composure in my face it was just like
• 1:10:28
  that's amazing yeah I mean Jeremy spotted me and
• 1:10:33
  pointed out to everybody yeah and then he and then
• 1:10:39
  he realised that you were looking over his shoulder
• 1:10:41
  on his phone yeah he's not forgotten about that he's
• 1:10:46
  still textin rich about that I've taken measures
• 1:10:50
  this year yeah I got capitals and everything in
• 1:10:55
  the words and full capitals and everything in the
• 1:10:57
  message and Jeremy over that I love it I love it
• 1:11:04
  I love it right guys I'm conscious of the time so I
• 1:11:08
  want to get you out and a couple of things here so
• 1:11:10
  firstly has the podcast changed anything in the
• 1:11:13
  group between you is it all still the same is it
• 1:11:17
  no it's the same it's just the things we would talk
• 1:11:21
  about in the group like we're just doing it is it
• 1:11:23
  more focused now because you obviously it's been an
• 1:11:26
  episode prepper that would be a good topic for the
• 1:11:29
  episode or just in the messenger chat just throw a
• 1:11:33
  picture in there something they're working on for a
• 1:11:35
  custom or just that day or a conversation they have
• 1:11:40
  with somebody on the cabal that day or if there's
• 1:11:42
  news that came out we'll chat about that in our
• 1:11:44
  messenger but obviously for the episode we're in a 2
• 1:11:48
  hour time frame or a time time spot so we do prep
• 1:11:53
  that out a little bit and have an idea of what we're
• 1:11:55
  going to talk about we don't know what we're going
• 1:11:56
  to say we just like this is a cool topic let's chat
• 1:11:58
  about that because we would chat about in our regular
• 1:12:00
  group so might as well so the group has not changed
• 1:12:04
  but I will say one thing that's kind of cool about
• 1:12:06
  doing the podcast is even though it's just a podcast
• 1:12:09
  and it's not no video involved it's not YouTube
• 1:12:11
  or anything like that when we're on it it's stream
• 1:12:14
  yard like this like we're using now so we can see
• 1:12:16
  each other and it's kind of cool to like talk to
• 1:12:19
  everybody and see their faces because we've only
• 1:12:23
  all been together one time at the very first Legion's
• 1:12:26
  Con so it's cool to see their faces but it's also
• 1:12:29
  kind of cool to hear their voices too because I know
• 1:12:31
  what everybody sounds like because I've met them in
• 1:12:33
  real life but hearing that's once a year hearing
• 1:12:36
  them on a bi -weekly basis or every so often face to
• 1:12:40
  face and seeing each other it's kind of cool I really
• 1:12:42
  like the dynamic of us and hearing how people talk
• 1:12:46
  it's a little different than hearing how they write
• 1:12:47
  so totally yeah and also we get to stare at Joe
• 1:12:51
  which is pretty sweet stop it we're never going to
• 1:12:57
  stop Joe you can never stop it it's ugly beard
• 1:12:59
  out just for you yeah that sounds cool and yeah I
• 1:13:06
  also think that yeah when we have our text chat
• 1:13:09
  because I know the guys so well now just from chatting
• 1:13:12
  to them on the podcast it's totally different than
• 1:13:15
  when we started the text chat talking about the
• 1:13:17
  podcast for me at least but we started the podcast
• 1:13:20
  I guess you had the text chat longer than we had
• 1:13:23
  the text chat before we started so maybe that's a
• 1:13:26
  you had built up a more relationship through that
• 1:13:29
  and you'd obviously met well we'd met in person
• 1:13:31
  but yeah we have very similar origin stories
• 1:13:36
  what's that? sorry Rich go ahead as you can
• 1:13:38
  see our text chat is like our podcast Mal is the
• 1:13:40
  nice guy something like that happened in the cabal
• 1:13:43
  and me and John will just go for it and Mal is like
• 1:13:45
  well but hang on a minute Mal is the same and we
• 1:13:50
  are bigger assholes Rich isn't that it? I
• 1:13:55
  believe it then Malcolm he's a sweetie oh yeah
• 1:13:58
  yeah Mal is the most authentic person on our
• 1:14:01
  show for sure he is literally himself and Rich
• 1:14:05
  is himself to an extent I don't know about me I'm
• 1:14:08
  not going to judge myself the one time I was really
• 1:14:10
  myself you had to cut that section out John I had to
• 1:14:14
  redo it so yeah that's brilliant I didn't I think
• 1:14:18
  I kept that audio just for myself you know to listen
• 1:14:21
  to those are a lot of swear words in that bit of
• 1:14:23
  audio oh DMA I was like I could beep it out or I
• 1:14:27
  could just cut it out no it doesn't bring anything
• 1:14:28
  so let's cut it out because he did it again
• 1:14:30
  then without the swear pretty much I think a
• 1:14:34
  little too much Richard a little too much bring it
• 1:14:37
  down a little bit a little less Richard I was going
• 1:14:42
  to say I think that probably in some small way
• 1:14:45
  I feel like you guys had to have inspired us like a
• 1:14:48
  planted a seed in our heads you know because I
• 1:14:51
  was going to say your origin story with you guys
• 1:14:54
  all meeting at Legion's Con and then you know kind of
• 1:14:57
  having your chat and then becoming a podcast very
• 1:14:59
  similar trajectory to ours I think we made a joke
• 1:15:03
  that we all met during the Poxas wave reveal and that
• 1:15:05
  we had to wait for Poxas to actually get delivered
• 1:15:07
  before we start a podcast because that's actually how
• 1:15:11
  it happens so true so true just Poxas took a little
• 1:15:14
  longer than anybody expected we met during right
• 1:15:18
  Necronominus to see how many waves we can how many
• 1:15:21
  shows we can get up to before that comes I think
• 1:15:24
  it'll be sooner than we the end of the year I
• 1:15:27
  reckon oh man I can't wait I can't wait for those
• 1:15:30
  nights I'm thinking it's going to be I think that's
• 1:15:33
  the waves it's going to be like the third cosmic or
• 1:15:37
  second or third second cosmic wave that it ends
• 1:15:39
  up on the table at Legion's Con it kind of
• 1:15:41
  gets delivered I reckon that will be the other two
• 1:15:43
  before that would be absolutely sweet don't you
• 1:15:47
  tease me stop it stop it and then they drop the
• 1:15:54
  like gold valiant nights or whatever another version of
• 1:15:57
  the valiant nights evil ones we don't have an idea
• 1:16:01
  for an evil night it's getting really hot in here
• 1:16:03
  now I had the idea that maybe they you know they
• 1:16:07
  drop like so that's a generic night for all the
• 1:16:09
  factions maybe they drop like a generic barbarian or
• 1:16:12
  something that would be cool you know because we
• 1:16:15
  got the bear arms now and the bear legs so I think
• 1:16:18
  what better way to put out that body through like some
• 1:16:21
  sort of do you think it's going to be a bear John
• 1:16:24
  maybe a generic bear be bear arms and bear legs
• 1:16:28
  yeah really hairy arms yeah huge arms and huge legs
• 1:16:34
  with a little torso and pop and swap fingers the
• 1:16:39
  horseman put a post out earlier today actually
• 1:16:41
  saying his picture of Legion's Con last year and
• 1:16:44
  the four horsemen table just like ten figures high
• 1:16:47
  you think that's a lot wait till this year and
• 1:16:50
  it's like oh wow that's great they got a whole
• 1:16:53
  room don't they yeah that second room is just them
• 1:16:55
  this year it's going to be so much stuff I reckon it
• 1:16:58
  will wrap around as well so I think you'll go in
• 1:17:00
  and have to follow it round and out again I
• 1:17:03
  think that's generally good for the rest of us who
• 1:17:06
  have the table in the other room because there's
• 1:17:10
  people that want to get the figs and there's people
• 1:17:13
  that want to see the customizers and obviously
• 1:17:14
  everyone wants to get the figs but they won't have
• 1:17:18
  to deal with the horsemen in the same room so that
• 1:17:21
  actually leads on to a question I was going to
• 1:17:23
  ask the guys do you think you might have yourself a
• 1:17:26
  mythic enabler's table this year I know obviously Noah
• 1:17:30
  and Eric you'll definitely have your own stuff to
• 1:17:34
  sell would you do that on a mythic enabler's table or
• 1:17:38
  have your own tables and a mythic enabler's table what
• 1:17:41
  you think and have that been any thoughts wow
• 1:17:44
  that's such like a clearly intelligent theory that none
• 1:17:49
  of us even came up with their thought before you
• 1:17:52
  just say I'm so blown away like we did talk about it
• 1:17:57
  a little bit there's been conversation there's
• 1:17:59
  definitely been talk I must have missed that I don't
• 1:18:03
  know that anybody was willing to sacrifice the
• 1:18:06
  convention being glued to the table it's already hard
• 1:18:09
  enough I definitely couldn't I mean I did offer up to
• 1:18:16
  give up my table and have that be the one and then
• 1:18:18
  these guys quickly hit me over the head and told me
• 1:18:22
  I was stupid and that I need to keep my table so
• 1:18:25
  that's where we ended up with that I'm just kidding
• 1:18:29
  they didn't say that but anyways I think maybe what
• 1:18:33
  we'll do is unless I mean I'm obviously not speaking
• 1:18:37
  for all of us but unless we come up with our own
• 1:18:40
  table and one of these guys want to sit at it
• 1:18:44
  Eric and I would probably have any kind of
• 1:18:46
  merchandise or swag that we might have being that we're
• 1:18:50
  right next to each other you guys are next to each
• 1:18:52
  other so I was kind of thinking we could just take
• 1:18:55
  over the space a little bit so then you have the
• 1:18:59
  other three guys kind of occasionally helping you on
• 1:19:01
  P -Breaks if you want to do a bit of shopping you
• 1:19:05
  get one of your enabler buddies to come in sounds
• 1:19:07
  good I was going to say Joe was a big help last
• 1:19:12
  year my bootfabes I wasn't even there I shouldn't even
• 1:19:14
  be talking what was I saying we could have Wyatt
• 1:19:17
  help but he's going to be manning the D -13 bootfab
• 1:19:21
  I'm going to be helping Chrissy then when he wakes
• 1:19:23
  up I always talk about the deep rabbit hole that
• 1:19:29
  Mythic Legion turned into where I saw D Amazing or
• 1:19:31
  somebody reviewing goblins and I went I'm going to
• 1:19:33
  buy some goblins and then like a year and a half,
• 1:19:36
  two years later I'm running the biblical themed toy
• 1:19:40
  line at the convention for these action figures I was
• 1:19:45
  just like how did this happen what the heck how
• 1:19:48
  did I get here, Wyatt's over there like leading the
• 1:19:50
  rosary and everything quite interesting I love it right
• 1:19:58
  guys what about group dynamics so who's the alpha
• 1:20:02
  in the group or is this too uncomfortable no Eric's
• 1:20:08
  clearly the alpha you think he seems quiet we talk
• 1:20:12
  about personalities and heels he seems quiet on
• 1:20:14
  the podcast but behind the scenes so we've got the
• 1:20:18
  superior I didn't know about this before I looked
• 1:20:20
  this up because I'm sad so there is the superior who
• 1:20:25
  is the actual leader and then there's the alpha
• 1:20:27
  who's the kind of the leader the informal leader
• 1:20:32
  so the people, the ones the people follow so is
• 1:20:34
  that an amity or is it just like Bill Steven that
• 1:20:40
  I'm just going to say yeah Pete's the superior and
• 1:20:44
  then see what that is Steve was not just at his
• 1:20:46
  pants I love it I would say in that case Noah is
• 1:20:53
  the probably, Noah is the superior I think maybe I
• 1:20:58
  don't know I would have said that too then as well
• 1:21:02
  because Noah in relation to the podcast because Noah
• 1:21:04
  was the one for me at least on my perspective
• 1:21:07
  because my small involvement was the one that I was in
• 1:21:10
  contact with so I thought actually Noah was going to
• 1:21:15
  be the one running the whole thing but he's
• 1:21:18
  obviously intelligent and he delegates I did that I
• 1:21:24
  delegated the hell out of it he's really called me
• 1:21:28
  Nick Fury he told me I needed an eye patch it's
• 1:21:35
  smart though you can't do everything yourself for sure
• 1:21:39
  we definitely share the load I think Bill shared
• 1:21:43
  ownership of it honestly it was kind of cool how Wyatt
• 1:21:46
  took charge with the outlines and stuff we were
• 1:21:48
  like okay well Wyatt can keep us on task then too
• 1:21:51
  he's got the personality for it and I think he
• 1:21:55
  does an absolutely fantastic job at doing it thanks
• 1:22:00
  Eric we all bring a little something to the show and
• 1:22:06
  to the group but yeah I don't know I think we're
• 1:22:09
  having a hard time answering because it's not
• 1:22:11
  really an alpha kind of thing kind of feeling or
• 1:22:13
  anything like that the chat was always just five guys
• 1:22:16
  contributing and the show is just kind of five guys
• 1:22:19
  contributing too we have our outline and Wyatt keeps
• 1:22:23
  us on track during the show as far as being our
• 1:22:26
  narrative host and Noah definitely helped us along
• 1:22:32
  with getting the gear and like come on guys when do
• 1:22:35
  you think you guys might have your microphones when
• 1:22:37
  are you going to have the caps on track but there's
• 1:22:40
  not really any to me it doesn't feel like there's
• 1:22:43
  any alpha kind of thing in the room maybe I could be
• 1:22:47
  considered more of a project manager from the
• 1:22:50
  beginning standpoint you're a producer yeah maybe maybe
• 1:22:56
  that's it you like the evil genius behind it all
• 1:23:00
  and Noah you know what you start there with a cat in
• 1:23:04
  your lap going like ha ha ha ha I think maybe if
• 1:23:06
  John had framed it like who's the evil genius of
• 1:23:10
  your group that would have been better than alpha
• 1:23:12
  because I think you nailed it I've always been kind
• 1:23:16
  of worried Noah's behind the scenes like pulling
• 1:23:19
  strings that's why I have co -hosts but I was going
• 1:23:24
  to say it's like with us you know I generally keep
• 1:23:26
  us ticking over but like some of our best episodes
• 1:23:29
  have been because of the guys kind of having ideas
• 1:23:32
  about stuff or and that's awesome you know definitely
• 1:23:38
  one of the like some of the ideas we've had over
• 1:23:41
  the time that our most successful episodes have
• 1:23:45
  been from Rich you had the one with the characters oh
• 1:23:50
  that's what I was going to say I love that episode I
• 1:23:52
  know that was a rich joint and it was really good
• 1:23:55
  thank you that was fun to do though it was indeed
• 1:23:59
  yeah so yeah it's always in the end I try to do
• 1:24:03
  the same thing John sorry go ahead it's always in
• 1:24:07
  the end the team thing obviously you can't
• 1:24:10
  everybody can't do anything but yeah you need somebody
• 1:24:15
  at some point to just drive it a little bit but
• 1:24:18
  you also need people that are cool with that you
• 1:24:21
  know that's no bro he's definitely in the driving
• 1:24:26
  seat then like I said he's back there pulling strings
• 1:24:31
  well you go there part of my job is actually
• 1:24:37
  connecting people and helping people get through
• 1:24:41
  things and so that's a big maybe it's something
• 1:24:45
  somewhat of a strong suit there yeah but we all like
• 1:24:50
  I think that our dynamic you know going back to the
• 1:24:53
  origin you know the origin of this conversation our
• 1:24:56
  dynamic is super cool because we've got even
• 1:25:00
  though we're all pretty even keeled and really
• 1:25:03
  mellow guys we're all just a little bit different and
• 1:25:07
  we all have our quirks and I think that's what makes
• 1:25:10
  it fun we just fit together like a puzzle yeah
• 1:25:13
  it's perfect yeah before Mike Bolton like you said
• 1:25:17
  this morning bro yeah yeah I think we have like an
• 1:25:23
  outline like the guys are saying like I put together
• 1:25:26
  the outline but my whole feeling on it too and like
• 1:25:29
  I said this like right before we recorded our
• 1:25:31
  first episode was I didn't want anybody to feel
• 1:25:33
  nervous about it because I think like we weren't sure
• 1:25:35
  if anybody would watch it or listen to it for one
• 1:25:37
  thing but I was just like we just need to treat this
• 1:25:39
  like it's a conversation because I think that and I
• 1:25:42
  think that's what's come out about our podcast too
• 1:25:44
  is that it just feels like you're hanging with some
• 1:25:46
  guys because I try to keep like we have topics but I
• 1:25:49
  kind of just let them go off and do their own thing
• 1:25:52
  and then maybe if we get way off of something I try
• 1:25:54
  to bring it back right but you know I have a loose
• 1:25:57
  leash on these guys yeah and that's the only way to
• 1:26:00
  do it I always have my bunch of questions and I
• 1:26:02
  don't get to them all even with you guys now we're
• 1:26:05
  chatting I have a bunch bunch of stuff that I was
• 1:26:07
  like okay if we are kind of stalling I'll bring this
• 1:26:11
  in but I don't if it's going well I'll just sit
• 1:26:14
  back and go this is great you know should rapid fire
• 1:26:18
  yeah yeah actually go ahead if you have any rapid fire
• 1:26:21
  no these weren't rapid fire type for sure and do you
• 1:26:28
  have any followers in the group that was the other
• 1:26:30
  part of that question and any troublemakers so
• 1:26:35
  troublemakers is a fun one but troublemakers usually I
• 1:26:39
  don't think so you wouldn't get to the other one I
• 1:26:41
  have just a follower someone that just kind of
• 1:26:43
  follows along and I don't know about followers we're
• 1:26:48
  all really active I bet Mike would probably say
• 1:26:51
  he's a follower I listened to the episodes and I was
• 1:26:55
  the first the most thing I was surprised about when I
• 1:26:58
  listened to the first show when I got the files and
• 1:27:00
  whatever was Mike is like one of the rockstar like
• 1:27:05
  he's literally like and I say this to Rich and Mal
• 1:27:08
  since I was like Mike is like whoa you know he's
• 1:27:13
  can talk and he can like he sounds like he's on
• 1:27:16
  radio and he sounds really good yeah he sounds good
• 1:27:19
  yeah exactly and when I say sounds good I don't
• 1:27:25
  just mean you know yeah he's Mike sounds good I
• 1:27:27
  mean he sounds good you know he's he talks well he
• 1:27:32
  takes all the boxes yeah exactly and yeah so I'm
• 1:27:36
  really like and I notice that when we edit his
• 1:27:38
  episodes or when we edit the episode I have to do
• 1:27:41
  very little to Mike's audio stream you know like I
• 1:27:44
  find myself doing things in my speaking like ums right
• 1:27:49
  I'm like oh I did a little bit too many of
• 1:27:51
  those or I'm from California so we say like
• 1:27:54
  a lot yeah well Ireland is it must be a west coast
• 1:27:58
  thing the west coast of Ireland we say like like
• 1:28:01
  like like like like like yeah yeah and I'd say that
• 1:28:05
  probably we're we're all probably equal troublemakers
• 1:28:09
  to answer that question that's perfect oh yeah
• 1:28:13
  we've had to remove I think comments from at
• 1:28:16
  least one of every person in our group at some point
• 1:28:19
  just because we're like that's maybe maybe pushing
• 1:28:21
  it a little bit except for me I say something and I'm
• 1:28:26
  like take it out and you guys are like no that
• 1:28:30
  day's we're here right then I propose to get out here
• 1:28:38
  on this question so if the horseman could surprise you
• 1:28:43
  with one figure this year what would it be it needs
• 1:28:47
  to be too detailed but what would you like to see
• 1:28:49
  the horseman kind of throw at you this year during
• 1:28:53
  the year of the anniversary or whatever is Eric ready
• 1:28:58
  he seems to have a I want a white knight I like that
• 1:29:04
  that's the white knight at the cabal that seems to be
• 1:29:09
  there it became somewhat of a what is it like a buzz
• 1:29:14
  word but man I want a white knight now yeah we
• 1:29:18
  talked about that in our chat like that was and
• 1:29:20
  then like yeah it kind of took on a life of its own
• 1:29:25
  in our little group chat and it was fun like I
• 1:29:28
  agree that would be excellent you know defender
• 1:29:31
  of the realm it could be the second cabal figure
• 1:29:36
  yeah totally it's a wall tour and they could put
• 1:29:38
  the next cabal faction figure give him a white t
• 1:29:43
  -shirt as the piece at first I'm like Eric Eric
• 1:29:47
  wants a white knight I'm like it threw me off and
• 1:29:50
  I even know the back story shame on me yeah no if I
• 1:29:57
  got to pick like my own figure or something I
• 1:29:59
  really really want them to surprise us with a knight
• 1:30:01
  would not be what it is sorry Joe but if it's a
• 1:30:06
  white knight I'm all about that defender of the realm
• 1:30:12
  maybe we get that in figure obscura surely that's
• 1:30:15
  something that exists that's pretty good yeah it's
• 1:30:18
  somewhat of a legend of its own right now making
• 1:30:26
  our own mythology I feel like I want to say like a
• 1:30:30
  creature you know like it would be cool to get more
• 1:30:33
  I was looking at the recent cosmic wave and they
• 1:30:36
  have some like I like that the prospect of doing a
• 1:30:42
  cosmic line kind of implies that you're going to have
• 1:30:44
  to I was thinking about their manufacturing and
• 1:30:46
  creating all these different like molds and bucks and
• 1:30:48
  things like that because in sci -fi there's different
• 1:30:50
  you know creatures of different sizes aliens with
• 1:30:52
  different arms and eyes and all that stuff and I
• 1:30:56
  thought wow that's pretty cool that they're actually
• 1:30:58
  investing in creating more body types because I feel
• 1:31:01
  like in legions and I love legions but yeah we've kind
• 1:31:05
  of got the 1 .0 and 2 .0 bucks and then like the
• 1:31:07
  Brutes and even the ogres but they're all kind of
• 1:31:09
  similar you know and so it would be cool to see you
• 1:31:12
  know like they started to add this kind of scaly
• 1:31:14
  textured buck with cosmic wave 1. I'm
• 1:31:18
  sure they're going to use that maybe for some lizard
• 1:31:20
  people or dragon people I know you're excited about
• 1:31:24
  that but I would like to see like yeah but I would
• 1:31:31
  like to see like they've teased werewolves for a
• 1:31:33
  while too that would be kind of cool to get like
• 1:31:36
  you know some more or we even talked about in our
• 1:31:38
  last episode like eagle -less and how you know
• 1:31:42
  we're kind of like not all of us are huge fans of
• 1:31:44
  the birds necessarily but what I personally appreciate
• 1:31:47
  about them is the sort of the anthropomorphic shape of
• 1:31:50
  that body you know and so I think that it would be
• 1:31:53
  cool to see some new like torso pieces in the line
• 1:31:56
  but I also think it would be great just personally I
• 1:32:00
  know I've talked to is is Ramirez about this but we
• 1:32:02
  both want to see like a Native American or like
• 1:32:04
  indigenous inspired figure in the line that would be
• 1:32:08
  pretty awesome like a tribal is there anything
• 1:32:11
  they can do to figure a obscura to do with that
• 1:32:14
  maybe as well maybe I think that so like as a
• 1:32:19
  Native person I know that sometimes people are
• 1:32:21
  hesitant to talk about our culture just there is a
• 1:32:24
  little bit of appropriation maybe or right and
• 1:32:27
  appropriation so I mean I would like want to empower
• 1:32:31
  them they also have Sherry Sherry works in the studio
• 1:32:34
  as a painter right and she's Native as well and
• 1:32:36
  pretty connected and so that's why you have a,
• 1:32:39
  it's not just why but that is one of the reasons why
• 1:32:41
  you have a connection with her when you were there
• 1:32:44
  you had a kind of a little bit of professional.
• 1:32:47
  I noticed like real quickly I
• 1:32:48
  was like oh my gosh hi and we talk forever she's
• 1:32:51
  great and she's awesome yeah she's so awesome it
• 1:32:54
  would be like me if there was an Irish person in the
• 1:32:56
  studio you know in New Jersey I'd be like oh
• 1:33:00
  Jersey they're all Irish they're all Irish you know
• 1:33:04
  where's the best part around here so like I
• 1:33:09
  would encourage them if they did want to do
• 1:33:10
  something like that to do something like that and I
• 1:33:12
  think that they're aware enough to be respectful of
• 1:33:15
  it well yeah because like the one thing I don't want
• 1:33:17
  to do and I think a lot of Native people would
• 1:33:19
  agree is like we want to like share our culture too
• 1:33:22
  you know because we don't want to be afraid to be
• 1:33:24
  involved right they're just doing it in a respectful
• 1:33:27
  way so yeah absolutely and if they have Sherry there
• 1:33:30
  I mean she'll obviously flag up anything yeah I
• 1:33:33
  would think so I think so and they can reach out to
• 1:33:37
  Wyatt he's happy to to advise and got a sneak
• 1:33:40
  peek hit my line guys I'm always here future figures
• 1:33:44
  I love that Joe what you got how many nights I've
• 1:33:48
  got one it is it is on the night track yeah I
• 1:33:54
  have thought this for a while anyway but I was
• 1:33:56
  watching Kingdom of Heaven yesterday and I was
• 1:34:00
  checking out the Templars armor in that and it's
• 1:34:03
  yeah it's a cool movie for sure yeah and I kind of
• 1:34:08
  knew this already but I hadn't watched that movie
• 1:34:10
  in a long time so I really picked up on it
• 1:34:12
  while I was watching it but back in like the
• 1:34:14
  middle ages like they weren't in like plate mail
• 1:34:17
  armor like our nights are that was much later it was
• 1:34:20
  much for for a very long time it was like chain
• 1:34:24
  mail armor and they would there's basically just chain
• 1:34:27
  mail armor and in that movie it was basically
• 1:34:29
  chain mail armor with like the tunic over their over
• 1:34:32
  their torso so I'd like to see like a more but I
• 1:34:36
  guess I guess a lot of Legion's fans would think
• 1:34:38
  of that as like a foot soldier but it's really not
• 1:34:41
  it's it's probably just like an earlier form of
• 1:34:43
  like the armor style and then it kind of came down
• 1:34:45
  to the foot soldiers is like that was what they
• 1:34:47
  could afford to wear but the the chain mail like
• 1:34:50
  arms the chain mail on the legs and then like a like
• 1:34:54
  a cloth it wouldn't have to be like actual soft
• 1:34:56
  goods cloth I mean I guess they could pull it up too
• 1:34:58
  but like the cloth and like their their tunics
• 1:35:01
  were low like so like you have the template the
• 1:35:03
  original template with like the the tabard in the
• 1:35:05
  middle just that piece of plastic but like theirs
• 1:35:08
  were more like almost like a coat like a sir coat
• 1:35:11
  that like went around them yeah around their waist and
• 1:35:13
  like went down around like their thighs or so you
• 1:35:15
  would probably have to do that in soft goods so you
• 1:35:17
  could like maintain some of their articulation but yeah
• 1:35:19
  like a fully chain mailed night and they already kind
• 1:35:24
  of have the start of that so I hope they're already
• 1:35:25
  on this this tip but like the Serelaja from
• 1:35:28
  Necronomagus has like the chain mail quaff and then
• 1:35:30
  the little neck piece of chain mail so like they're
• 1:35:32
  already sort of like like have a little piece of
• 1:35:35
  that and I hope that they did that because they're
• 1:35:37
  gonna maybe you know expand that down the line would
• 1:35:41
  be cool yeah I mean those nights when they drop as
• 1:35:44
  as you kind of said earlier in your excitement
• 1:35:47
  about that wave they are gonna be like valiant night
• 1:35:52
  on steroids kind of thing you know yeah yeah I think
• 1:35:55
  they are too they're gonna be really really cool
• 1:35:56
  although valiant night was already on steroids sure
• 1:35:59
  but like you know once we get that that same book
• 1:36:02
  with the soft goods plus other parts like as you
• 1:36:05
  said the chain mail pieces and you know yeah you can
• 1:36:08
  really do so much with them the face plates on I
• 1:36:11
  think couple like an adult right I think as a face
• 1:36:13
  plate yeah all that kind of fun stuff so yeah I
• 1:36:17
  can't wait yeah absolutely how about how about you
• 1:36:20
  mr. no bro looking forward to well
• 1:36:25
  I don't I'm just gonna I'm gonna borrow something that
• 1:36:27
  we that we kind of talked about in our chat a little
• 1:36:30
  bit we discussed the prospect of like re
• 1:36:36
  -releases version 2's and and how like maybe some
• 1:36:41
  cool ways they could roll those out so one of the
• 1:36:44
  one of the things we talked about was like a
• 1:36:48
  two -pack like and I know it's something similar to
• 1:36:51
  what you guys have talked about in the past like
• 1:36:52
  that good versus like we like that dynamic it's kind
• 1:36:55
  of neat so what better what better way to do an
• 1:37:00
  oath over version 2 and maybe an urzach version to
• 1:37:04
  the release those guys as to get people hyped up
• 1:37:10
  about the video game that we haven't heard much about
• 1:37:12
  yeah how about they they have those tied in with
• 1:37:17
  that somehow and give us those figures anyway we can
• 1:37:21
  get the figures would be great I mean that's that's
• 1:37:23
  that's truly what we're after even a first place
• 1:37:26
  but and I know you mal you you think that the
• 1:37:30
  legions con day 2 figure is going to be some sort
• 1:37:33
  of a version 2 or a character like like forgas
• 1:37:36
  last year so this this for me could be a possibility
• 1:37:39
  for legions con sure to or similar I wouldn't think
• 1:37:43
  another 2 -pack though I think right because we've
• 1:37:46
  already got a 2 -pack but 25 years of the studio 10
• 1:37:50
  year anniversary you never know I don't know it's
• 1:37:55
  going to be a it's going to be a Treadaway corn boy
• 1:37:56
  2 -pack I'm calling it they're almost too cool to
• 1:38:02
  have a tribute figure if you know what I mean
• 1:38:03
  that's fair it's like well there's been a few others
• 1:38:07
  that have had tribute figures so now it's like
• 1:38:09
  well you know if we get one now we we we're in a
• 1:38:12
  certain point in the queue whereas I want to buy a
• 1:38:15
  Treadway corn boy bust I want like a statue like
• 1:38:20
  that would be sweet yeah yeah that's something extra
• 1:38:22
  you know yeah I love the mountain rush more of the
• 1:38:27
  studio there you go there you go now you got it oh
• 1:38:31
