This episode of Distractible is presented by Vitamin Water.

Some drinks are fun.

Some drinks are functional.

But vitamin Water said, why not both?

The Elevate Blue Raspberry, actually very good.

As I'm getting older, I found that I'm a raspberry guy.

They also have zero sugar rehydrate pineapple passion fruit.

As I'm getting older, I'm finding I'm really a pineapple guy.

I'm like Wade, but with apples.

Good evening, gentle listeners or watchers, and welcome to Distractible.

This episode, Manichaean Mark loves wood, nukes the Seven Seas, then Lords the Luddite and the Lads.

Balaniferous Bob requires decor diagnosis, creeps on kaiju, and is fickle over fridges.

Weakly Wade offers Fallatio, displays dementia, shirks small talk, rips a bong, and refuses to stoop.

From Ethan Schroming to Picatum Original,

he has.

It's time for

they've gone too far.

Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show.

Hello and welcome to Distractible.

Thank you for joining us today.

It's going to be a very fun one and we're going to reward you for your time with lots of laughs.

Lots and lots of laughs.

Baldimort, make them laugh.

Whoa!

Not so many backflips, my guy.

Was Ethan here?

No, Baldimore is Ethan, didn't you know?

I've never seen them in the same shroom.

What?

Never seen them in the same room.

Or shroom.

Or shroom.

I've never seen them on shrooms.

That's a lie, but I won't say which one.

Damn.

I'm your host because I won by clearly arbitrary circumstances, but those are the kind of circumstances that we put into this game because they're not us making them arbitrary.

It's the universe calling down arbitrarialness to us.

I think the universe is pretty uncouth.

I almost said a word that triggers things that I had to catch myself at the beginning of it.

Apparently, there's been another episode recently where I said it and none of us noticed and we just kept going and everyone on the subreddit was like, oh, oh, oh.

All of these rules are under the qualification that if none of us catch it, or if one chooses not to catch it and the others actually don't catch it, then it doesn't get caught.

It's a real thing.

That is another form of fair.

We have baked in parts of the rules to make sure that we can never be held accountable for failing to uphold them.

It is built in to account for the other's stupidity.

I was going to say something to that effect, and now I've completely forgotten it.

So I'm going to move on to small talk from these guys, Bob and Wade.

All right.

I need your help, everybody.

Viewers can also help.

Listeners, you're not interesting right now.

But Mark and Wade, I'm most interested in your opinion.

You see this?

You see this right here in my background?

This is like a cheap, i think it was from literally from like walmart or something it's like the cheapest cube organizer everybody has one of these things it's fine and i'm i'm gonna keep using that i'm just gonna move it somewhere else i want a piece of furniture to go there and i want it to be like cool oh we're jumping right into the episode okay got it i'm not cool what goes what goes here because it's not that wide of a thing and there's this shelf up above it so it can't be like a full like bookshelf situation you want cube storage or you want something else entirely?

I want it to be it.

I want it to be like

still like a cabinets or shelves or something where it's like it's in my background, right?

So I want it to like look cool, but I'm just tired of the cube look.

I'm tired of having the boxes.

I want something different.

What would look cool?

Help me.

No, no, this is great because I've been thinking about this recently.

Do you guys remember at like your either way back in childhood or your grandparents' house when you had that like desk, but it had a wooden roll-up top, a roll-top desk.

Yes, I think back to how much storage they actually had because not only was there space for like a computer and a screen, there was space for like CDs in the side, DVDs, wherever you want to put them.

Yeah, well, it had like built-in cubbies and things, and it had everything, and it's beautiful because it's wood, right?

And I'm willing to bet you can get those at a relatively affordable price.

Well, especially if I go on like Marketplace or somewhere, I could get like a one that needs a little TLC maybe and get like a a deal on an older roll top desk interesting yeah right would i keep it mostly closed or mostly open you could every episode you could open it's another surprise it's

it's it's like the the dinosaur intro for power hour every episode starts with me revealing what's in the roll top desk oh that's fun we could all get them everybody needs a roll top desk yes come on way you're gonna have to bolt it down though because it'll float away on the river of shit that is your basement.

Thank you.

They're beautiful, and they come in different varieties and different sizes.

You can get all the way an antique one, or you could get there's so many drawers.

Holy shit, look at all the drawers.

Where are we looking?

What where are we looking for this?

Roll top desk, but this one has.

I

shit you not, dude.

Don't shit me.

28 drawers and/or

uh and/or cabinets, nine cubbies.

holy shit this thing is the best oh yeah all right i just went on on marketplace and put in roll top desk and there are some very good examples already showing up this one is 15 minutes from my house i could go pick this up right now this one says for free this one says please take it get it get it get it get it get it all right we'll see the few bob yeah i gotta go i'll be back yeah if he comes back with that before the end of the episode he wins whoa this one's cool.

Oh, this one's...

All right, so they all have cubbies and stuff.

This one, the, the, fuck, I'll just fucking show it because I don't even think I can describe this.

You can probably make one of these, right?

You do wood stuff.

Yeah, I could definitely make one of these.

Look at this cubby.

Look on the top right.

Look how fucking cool those drawer things are.

It's like a curved recessed.

It's a roll-top, roll-out desk.

Yeah, man, I love that.

This one does not have as much storage as some of them do, but I love the look of the like like, those little built-in.

You know what's cool about it?

Some of them have like an upper shelf, too.

That's a built-in standing desk.

You stand up, go to the top shelf.

It's perfect.

God, I miss those things.

I was just going to say get a sex doll playing a saxophone, but this is a much better idea.

A what doll?

A sex doll playing a saxophone?

Yeah, you know, the one that has like the.

No, which one's that?

The one that goes,

listeners, my mouth is open as if it were ready to receive.

Yeah, how is it going to play a saxophone with that embouchure?

That's not going to work.

Yeah, that's too loose.

Good episode, Bob.

I like this idea.

Wait, are you most?

What's happening?

No, this is my small talk.

I was

literally, I've been trying to find, I've been looking at like cool furniture brands and I've been like, oh, what's cool?

And I swear to God, 90% of stuff I've been finding because I'm looking for like bookshelves and display.

It's all just different forms of cube storage.

Whereas like, well, this one's from Pottery Barn and it's got some rectangles in it.

It's got some big cubes and some some small cubes and i'm like i don't fucking want cubes anymore i'm over cube storage like this is really good storage i'm gonna go put it in the storage room full of storage but i want something that's interesting the roll top desk very interesting i like this one that has this might be the one mark was looking at it's got like three or four different holes and what looks to be 30 drawers it's really cool uh but wade i would like you to go uh get a scan or something your memory is getting really concerning i've had three of them in my life, but I guess I could get a fourth.

All right.

I think maybe I'm just easily impressed, but I want to share this again just because this is another one.

Look at the shapes of the built-in thing.

They're all curvey, and the drawer is felt lined.

Man, I like it.

You could play pool in there.

You could play pool in there.

You play the tiniest game of pool ever.

Like, not even ironically.

These are beautiful.

No, this is fucking great.

This is so much better to look at than, and I have nothing against cube storage.

I'm just fucking sick of it.

I've had this thing in my life for like a decade and a half.

There's a fundamental function in this that I didn't even remember.

You can lock the roll top.

Oh, yeah, they lock

for all my private documents.

Damn, they had it right, whoever invented these.

I assume Benjamin Franklin.

These things cost like two pennies back in the day.

Oh, I'm still sharing my screen.

I almost switched back to my porn.

I'll give you two points right now if you tab right over to it.

Come on, come on.

Come on.

I don't have porn open.

Unless.

Everyone share their desktop right now.

No, this is very, very interesting.

And you don't need a new one.

Like, there are new ones here for way too much.

No, well, these are, and these are, these are like, this one's like a hundred bucks.

These are listed for like, like, if you want a new hardwood furniture, on top of being difficult to find things that are like cool and authentic and not just some rebadged white label whatever they're fucking expensive a hard a hardwood bookshelf is like anywhere from like 600 to 1200 bucks and i'm like it's it's flat planks of wood in the shape of a bookshelf it's very nice i'm sure but god damn i'm not that kind of guy but i could do a hundred dollar roll top desk that i just need to like maybe sand and patch a finish on or maybe i could paint it or something because it's not that not super valuable it's just a little bit preserved wood lasts a long time.

Like, well-maintained, well-preserved wood is tough.

Yeah, it's tough.

Think about how long petrified wood has lasted.

Damn.

It's true.

He's right.

You scare the wood right.

I want you to know, and I'm saying it out loud so it doesn't seem crazy later, is you got the segue point.

I got the segue point for that.

You got the segue point.

Oh, man.

I'm just saying that out loud.

All right.

Wade, but it's your small talk turn.

Well, I don't even know if I want to try.

Yeah, I don't know if I even want to try at this point.

You know what?

You don't have to try.

All right.

All right.

Moving on.

You see, I you chose.

It's fine.

Go on.

I'm going to start off with some more small talk to fill the space since Wade, you know, abstained.

But

I'll give you a point for being bold.

I'll give you a half a point for being bold.

I'll give you half a point if you make that OA.

And I'm bold.

All right.

I'll call you Bowd.

So, in recent news, the planet is saved.

Oh, God.

I thought that was going the other way.

That's a relief.

Or will be saved as soon as this researcher's plan comes to fruition.

Now, I imagine this researcher, he's got a jagged scar over his eye, a monocle on the other one.

Completely bald, of course, pale as a ghost, high-collared, like

suit that's custom and futuristic.

And, you know, he's petting some kind of animal.

Any facial hair?

It's either none or really extravagant.

Okay.

Interesting.

Like Hunger Games levels of facial hair?

Oh, yeah.

Oh, 100%.

Because

this researcher by the name of Adam Haverly reveals his plan to save the planet by detonating a nuclear bomb on the ocean floor.

Oh.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize we were living in Pacific Rim.

Do we need to keep the kaiju out?

What the fuck is happening?

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What'd those fish ever do to Adam?

Also, if you haven't seen that movie, it's a pretty good movie.

Look, nothing in this really explains how

this is going to save.

So I'm going to just read this article, okay?

Written by Laura Martin San Juan.

In the 1960s, Project Plowshare studied the effects of a nuclear explosion on geological material on the ocean floor.

Now researcher Andy Andy Haverly envisions taking it a step further as he looks for a way to save the planet.

The positive effect of a nuclear explosion by pulverizing the basalt that makes up the seabed, such an explosion could accelerate carbon sequestration, which captures and stores carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to reduce climate change through a process known to scientists as enhanced rock weathering.

I was really hoping the process was going to be known to scientists as a big fucking explosion.

But

whatever.

I mean, that's fine.

That's fine.

The

science words.

So Project Plowshare was a program in 1957 to explore the use of nuclear explosive for peaceful construction projects.

The idea was to use it for large-scale earth moving, such as ports, canals, and highways.

So yeah, any time, you know, in construction when you need a big fucking hole in the ground.

I I can't you they think they think they need to dig dig tunnels in the ground.

Just fuck the ground.

If there's no ground, you don't need to dig shit.

Just put a nuke in there.

Oh, they meant literally just like have sex with the ground.

No, that wouldn't fix it.

Okay, Wade, you have sex with the ground.

We're going to try the nuke.

We'll see which one gets the planet saved.

Oh, I know which one's bigger, and it ain't the nuke.

You should see a doctor.

I think this is a guy from Scary Movie.

All right.

I'm glad you guys got that.

What a callback.

Wade loves that movie.

That was Wade's humor right there.

Oh, man.

1998 or whatever it was.

Just like yesterday.

All right.

Now, according to Haverly's calculations, he wants to bury a nuclear device, a classic hydrogen bomb, under the Kerguelen Plateau in the southern ocean at a depth of two to three miles in the basalt-rich seabed and four to five miles below the water's surface.

Explosion would be contained within the water.

It's been a minute, but which ocean is the southern ocean?

I don't remember that one.

The southern ocean.

Do you remember your cardinal directions, Wade?

Yeah, name all the oceans.

Points to the person that can name all the ocean.

Well, Bob, you go first, and I'll clean up.

All the oceans: Pacific, Atlantic,

Northern,

Southern,

Arctic, and also Indian Ocean.

Damn it.

He got it.

He got it.

That's all the oceans, I think.

That was six of them.

How many seas do we sail?

Do we sail the seven seas or the six seas?

Is it actually called southern ocean?

I thought it was called Arctic and Antarctic Ocean.

Is it called the Southern Ocean?

It is the Arctic Ocean, but there's also the North Sea, which is not the Arctic Ocean.

And there is no Antarctic Ocean.

It's called the Southern.

I don't, like, I'm a fucking expert.

I don't know.

Yeah, it's the Southern Ocean, also known as the Antarctic Ocean.

Oh, okay.

And there's only six of them.

Mediterranean.

We don't talk about that last night.

The last one is forbidden.

That's what were the kaijus were.

The forbidden ocean.

So what?

So we need to call Bruce Willis and

Ben Affleck and tell Liv Tyler she's got to wait on the surface while they ocean gate their way down and put the nuke into the basalt ridge.

That's what's going on here.

All right, yeah.

And here the positives are that the radiation would be trapped locally in the basalt.

Okay, no, wait.

Sorry.

The positive is there are few to no loss of life due to the immediate effects of radiation.

However, there's a caveat.

Okay, okay.

In the long term, he acknowledges that the explosion will impact people and cause losses.

Well, as long as it's not me people, what the fuck do I care?

What about the creatures that live in the ocean?

Are they going to have any issues?

This is the entire article.

There is nothing else here that explains how this is going to fix anything.

Well, so I will say there was one key phrase in the thing that you read.

What was it?

Carbon, carbon de carbon, what was that thing?

Carbon desequestration or sequestration.

Carbon sequestration.

So all these companies that are selling carbon capture, carbon capture, environmental things, where it's basically like, we'll filter the exhaust from your, whatever you're burning.

and we'll, that's carbon sequestration, which is a thing that happens naturally.

So, I'm assuming there's something about basalt there, where if it's dissolved into the ocean in the way that it would be with the nuclear, that that would cause the ocean to dramatically increase the level of carbon it captures from the atmosphere, thus doing something for greenhouse effects in a good way because of big fucking explosion.

Yeah, it also probably that far down wouldn't trigger a tectonic plate movement of some kind.

Probably wouldn't.

Like, I know we like to think we have big nukes, but I don't know if we're causing tectonic shifts with our piddly little hydrogen bombs.

You never know.

You never know.

It could.

It could.

In the right spot, you know.

It's probably possible.

It's possible.

It's possible.

But also possible it saves the Earth.

Because of

equestrian.

Of course.

Wade, get that scan.

Get that scan.

10 points if you get a scan.

Any scan.

Carbonated equestrians, Wade.

You can do this.

I think my phone has a way to scan QR codes.

Does that count?

It'd be better than not having a scan, I suppose.

It has to be a scan on you.

Hold it up to your eye.

Maybe your eye has a QR code that will tell your phone.

No, I think it's the other camera, bud, but.

And pens is not a weird thing to be interested in, so don't say that.

Me?

It's been Prime Video.

I need to watch every war movie ever made.

I love war movies.

What we were talking about last week or last episode got me thinking about this.

Bob, you hit the nail on the head with the segue because I think technology is overly complicated.

I feel like

dumber versions of technology is better.

Wait, let me hear.

You okay, man?

What are you ripping bong hits off the side of the frame?

What's going on here?

I was coughing and I got a Kleenex.

I woke up today with like the chills and my throat sore, and I'm worried I might be getting like strep or something.

So my throat's getting a little scratchy.

So I just didn't want to cough into the mic, but I've also got my bong over here.

How much I of remectin have you had today?

Because it's probably not enough if you're feeling sick.

Seven grams.

You got to up your game.

Seven megagrams.

God, I wish that was the measurement.

Milligrams, grams, megagrams, ultra grams, mammograms, gigagrams.

I mean, technically, gigagrams is actually probably a real one, I think.

I don't know.

Megagrams would also be in that case.

Oh, yeah, because the mega millions.

Yeah, milligrams, grams, kilograms, megagrams, gigagrams.

There are megagrams.

Pedagrams?

One megagram is a thousand kilograms.

Teragrams.

That would be a thicker.

Teragrams and then pedagograms.

And then pedagograms.

Because penta.

And then quadrupeds.

I have no idea.

I could Google, but I'm just going to sit here and make words up.

All right.

So here's how we're going to do this.

I'm going to present you you with a piece of technology that I feel has gone too far.

And we're going to take terms stepping back in time until we reach the right nexus of old.

It worked and it does a job.

And also, it still is good.

You know, it still has to serve the function, the fundamental thing that it's trying to do.

So we're going to start with a smart fridge, right?

Smart fridge, I'm talking Wi-Fi hotspot enabled, four to five, and even 6G capability, screen in the window,

Like camera installed inside.

I feel like that's too much.

It doesn't, it overcomplicates the need of, you can push a button, order food, and it gets delivered.

Miss it.

Anyway, I want to step back in time.

I honestly do feel, I generally like technology.

Who's getting a benefit from?

Well, we're going to talk about it, but how do you even get a benefit from a smart fridge?

That's one of the ones where I'm like.

You don't want cameras because that's how they see the body parts.

You don't want people to know that those are in there.

That's true.

That's a good point.

So what?

So are you going to give us the time periods to which we are jumping back?

Or are we just sort of talking it through?

No, no, you're just going to step back.

It's going to be more of a discussion than any real solid rules.

It's like, I'm going to give you something.

We're going to take turns stepping back.

I will also award points for good reasons why the technology is more beneficial than what it is.

All right.

Heads, Bob goes first.

Tails, Wade goes first.

God, tails!

Wade goes first.

All right, you got your super smart fridge.

How do we, where do we step back?

What do we

step back?

I already said it.

We get rid of the cameras.

Who the hell needs a camera?

If you like, I've got a bad memory, but I know what's in my fridge.

You buy that shit.

You got to go pay $10,000 for a slice of ham.

You put it in there.

You know it's in there.

What do I need to look at it for?

Like, what's for dinner?

I better go look at my ham I just bought two days ago.

Yep, there it is.

Guess I'm doing ham.

All right, admittedly, I am the guy that when I go to the kitchen because I'm hungry, I will open the fridge, not take in any visual information of me looking inside that fridge, close the fridge again.

Fuck, what did I see?

Open it again, scan, see nothing, close.

I have no food, and then I walk away from the fridge.

So, the camera, do you ever like pull up a camera of the inside of your fridge?

You're like, wonder what I have to eat.

I see, I don't have a camera, I don't have a camera in my fridge.

I honestly have no, I've never experienced this.

Bob, you have fridges, right?

Do you have I've had a lot of fridges, I've never had one that was the, I think the smartest we have is the one we most recently bought, and it does have Wi-Fi Wi-Fi for some fucking reason.

I haven't set it up.

I, because it doesn't have cameras or any of that bullshit.

I think it has Wi-Fi so that you can get the app and it will tell you what temperature it thinks it is inside of itself, which is important when you have fridges that don't work very well.

We actually bought remote temperature things that you put in your fridge and your freezer because we were having the issues where the whole thing where freeze wasn't getting cold and we were tracking that.

But no, I've never honestly, I wouldn't, I wouldn't.

I've bought so many fridges, and I've looked and literally we looked at the ones where it was like the camera and the see-through panel and the whatever.

And we were like, Why the fuck would you want that?

I don't want that.

Bye-bye, camera.

Do we have to go back incrementally?

Because I have a take on this, actually.

I don't jump.

I don't care.

Okay, assuming.

that we update the cooling technology to modern compressors, modern cooling, the design of fridges was correct in like the 50s, 60s era.

Have you guys seen the refrigerators from that time period?

I have.

I have, and it blows my mind.

They're interesting.

They're like art pieces.

Some of them have drawers where like the whole thing swings out so you can see what's all the way in the back.

Some of them have like half circle lazy Susans where it's been.

I was about to say the pulling out thing.

Yeah.

They all have all like this interesting mechanical shelf design.

Modern fridges don't have fucking anything on these old school, aside from probably staying cold and getting cold more effectively and efficiently.

The design of those and the aesthetic of them too, the outside, it looks so cool, so beautiful.

I found there's a guy on, I think, TikTok that I follow where his business is he buys thing, those old like fridges of that with interesting, and he does it for all appliances because it's and he like resto mods them so he visually restores them so they look like they're pristine example of whatever 1956 fridge but he puts modern cooling components and stuff into them so you get the convenience and and uh reliability of modern fridge modern compressor technology but you get the aesthetic and the usefulness of fridge from the 1950s when people who designed them gave a shit and were trying things it does in fact blow my mind some of the old school designs because usually I'm not a big like retro design kind of guy.

Some of the old appliance designs are fundamentally beautiful, like artistically beautiful.

Like the hand-painted fronts, the lettering across the color scheme, the way the handles look.

And there are piece of shit fridges all the time.

Like I've had many an apartment that had a fridge that was already there where it's like, it's a styrofoam.

Okay, we can stop there.

It feels like I could pick the whole thing up with both hands, arms outstretched like this and just lift it into the air.

And basically,

all I said was the word.

Calm down.

I know, but I'm picturing it.

With a coating.

It's got a coating on front.

Yeah, it's inside.

It's hidden.

I can feel you picking it up and hear anyway.

No, yeah, it's that's it.

That's the whole game for me.

I would, I think if I was to add things back from those designs, it would be nice to have a water dispensing system.

But honestly, I think the water in the door thing is a little bit of a scam.

There was one fridge when we were shopping for fridges.

This was one where it was a smart fridge and it had all the other bullshit I didn't want.

But what it had was a pitcher that like mouse slotted into a specific slot in the fridge on the shelf.

And the pitcher was always full of ice-cold water because it was when you put it in, it filled it up to the fill line, and you had a full pitcher and it was in the fridge.

So you could like take that and set it on the table if you have, if you're having dinner and you want to have water on the table or what like or all kinds it's convenient.

I would rather have that, but is that too much Wade?

Could we go back even further?

The fundamental thing is just keeping your food cold.

Do we really need I don't know when this became a thing.

This might be around the I don't know.

I don't know what the inside of the old fridges looked like.

Am I crazy for feeling like the newer fridges hold less?

Like you can't fit a 12 pack in comfortably sometimes in a lot of newer fridges.

The underneath freezer is probably smarter because of heat rising.

So it's easier to keep the bottom cold.

I've always hated the bottom freezer.

I miss the old just like top freezer.

But I feel like at least our fridge, I don't know if it's just because the way it's designed is shallower.

I feel like you can barely get like a 12-pack of soda in there without like the door not wanting to close because it sticks out too long.

Whereas a lot of older fridges that we had, I feel like it had infinite space.

You could fit everything in there.

And it was like, man, we have nothing in this fridge.

And there was so much shit.

Now it's like, we have a bag of broccoli, one pint of ice cream.

Oh, where are we going to fit the ice tray?

That might just be your shopping, I guess.

It does kind of sound like you have a counter-depth refrigerator, which is a shallower depth of refrigerator.

This is a modern trend.

I don't know how modern it is, but you have to be careful when you're shopping for fridges.

I know because I've done it a fuckload.

That if you want the big capacity, you need to not get the counter-depth ones because they're made to be, they look cooler, basically, right?

They don't stick out as far so they're like yeah i guess old fridges did jut out a bit didn't they yeah so like they're in lot they like blend in more with like your cabinets or whatever and they are they are actually way smaller and you might have one of those because our fridge holds so much shit it feels like a giant empty cavern and the biggest problem is i feel like i feel like we could use another layer of shelves sometimes because there's a lot of like vertical space we don't use because things don't like shit in the fridge isn't very tall sometimes.

But sounds like you might just have a crappy fridge.

I've only ever bought one fridge, every fridge has been the default one in the houses that we've bought, except for one time a month before we moved, our fridge died, so we had to replace it for the next people to have a new fridge.

That's the only fridge shopping I've ever done.

You know what they used to

do before fridges and why they call it an ice box?

Have a box with ice?

Literally.

So this is why freezers were on top.

And you're on the right track, but it's kind of a different thought.

You have a giant block of ice in the top and because heat rises but cold falls the cold from the ice will fall downward and it'll exchange heat the heat will rise and go into the ice block and that's how it kept things cool so when freezers the refrigeration comes out the top and falls downward from there the coldest part will be up top and then obviously it'll go less cold towards the bottom and so that's why it is which maybe we should go back to the just a big block of ice you know i miss opening freezer up high at eye level i don't like bending down for freezer i don't know that's weird but that's i don't like it do you do you go into the freezer a lot more than you go into the fridge because i guess my thing is i use the fridge like every day multiple times a day i'd rather have that at eye level you'd think i would too but i just i liked opening the freezer and seeing ice cream not bending down to look i don't know it makes no sense it's just a weird me quirk they still sell they also do sell those yeah mark is right i don't buy fridges man i don't have the fridge My fridge is.

You could.

You got the budget for a fridge, I think.

I have learned in life: if something works, don't touch it.

For the love of fucking God, don't mess with it at all.

That's why all your plumbing works so well.

Because the moment you go to get something better, everything goes to hell.

Never upgrade.

If something works,

keep it, cherish it.

But what about downgrading?

This is what we're doing.

We're downgrading.

Wait, Wade didn't actually suggest anything.

Is it my turn or is it still Wade's turn?

What do you got?

I have a solution.

We need to start another ice age.

I'm thinking, dig a nuke into the part of the ocean that doesn't have basalt, but whatever the opposite of that is, that reduces carbon sequestration, releases all the carbon from the ocean all at once, hyper-global warming, hyper-climate change, push right through the part where it gets so hot, everything dies, back down to the part where we're in an ice age, just like

it'll everyone will just be like, oh, and then it'll be a good, it'll cool off and you'll be fine.

You'll just get a little sunburn or something.

And then you won't need to worry about refrigerators because just chuck it out back.

The hardest part will be keeping everything from freezing.

You'll need like a cooler to insulate your stuff that you don't want to freeze that'll just be kind of cold.

But that's no tech at all.

That's just a box.

You could just do that.

You've gotten to the heart of the issue.

You've solved it.

That's in less way you could solve it more.

Well, we don't need ice boxes if there's no us.

What if we just nuke the whole planet?

I mean, fuck Earth, am I right?

I think,

I feel like, however,

I love it, Wade.

I love it, and I'm giving you a point for it, but I feel like I'm going to give it to Bob for the solution of keeping food cold, which I think is the problem we're trying to.

What if the food doesn't have to be cold?

Food's hot all the time because of the nukes.

What if instead of nuking the carbon out of the ocean, we nuke way more salt into the ocean.

Find the part of the ocean where we dig the nuke in and it releases more salt.

Then you don't need anything to be cold because we'll have salt coming out of every orifice and we'll just cure everything because shit that's cured doesn't need to be refrigerated, but it won't spoil.

Cured meats, cured sodas, cured ice cream, it'll all be, it'll last forever.

We don't even need to do that.

We just escalate humanity to the point where we don't need to live on planets anymore.

It's real cold out in space.

If we just float around in space, everything floating around us will be cold and frozen.

It's actually counterintuitive.

In some spots in space, it's very hot because you're exposed to the direct light of the sun.

But I get what you're saying.

We live in the dark side of space and we have our big old spacies that block out the sun.

We need to put the sun in a refrigerator because it's hot and we need to not have hot.

Not only do we not need a refrigerator, but now we've got the new version of a microwave where we have the sun in the bottom box eating up the top.

All I know is hot makes cold.

When my compressor for my fridge turns on, it gets hot.

What's hotter than the sun?

Put a box around the sun, capture that hot, do whatever magic happens in refrigerators.

Boom.

Infinite cold.

You're right.

You're right.

I think.

All right.

So we've worked backwards in time by going forward in time enough to build a Dyson sphere so that we can make our fridges back to the good old days.

Ice cream is going to go on the top star.

Top of space.

Perfect.

All right, we've solved fridges.

Thank you for that.

Bob, I am disappointed.

Neither one of us came up with Glauber salts.

Beds.

I have one of those fancy schmancy beds that cools you down or heats you up in the middle of the night.

And you know, that's pretty cool.

Or hot.

I realized...

The problem wasn't necessarily that I needed a fancy water cooling solution for my bed, which it has burst before.

It really has.

That was something unpleasant to wake up to.

I swear, the bed burst.

It wasn't me.

But the thing is, I then we were at some

Airbnb or something like that, and we were sleeping on a bed that was raised off the ground.

It wasn't a thick mattress or anything, it didn't have multiple cooling layers.

Let me tell you, I was the same temperature as the room because the bed wasn't sitting on the floor, soaking all the heat and not letting any of the air of the room under the bed.

And I realized: oh, this is a big insulator.

This literally is capturing all of my heat.

If it's so much foam, it's just going to absorb all the heat.

And if it doesn't have a way to get the heat out through any other surface contact with anything else, it's going to get warmer through the night.

And by simply, the modern trend is to have a bed that's like kind of low to the ground and on the floor or something, raised, much like the roll-up desk raised things, not there.

Okay, anyway, wait, I got ahead of myself.

I'm playing my own game here.

Mark, two points.

Good answer.

All right, what's the next one?

God, it's just like talking, guys.

I'm sorry.

I'm subtracting two points here.

I like you blabbing, man.

I'm blabbing all over the place.

All right, minus two, blab.

Good beds.

Go.

I'll start simple.

I think Mark is right.

And I'm not stealing your idea, but I think generally you're right.

We're adding too much stuff to beds.

All you need is the minimumly effective number of springs oriented upward so that when you lay on them, it's springy and cushiony.

I think foam is a core problem with a lot of the beds these days.

I get that foam is convenient.

You can vacuum seal it down to real small, and you can mail it.

And I like a foam bed.

They are comfy.

The right foam is very, but it is, it's too hot.

It's too complicated.

And foam is the modern technology that I feel like led to this.

You never, I never heard about people desperately being like, oh, I need a way to cool my bed or whatever, when it was just like old school spring mattresses because they weren't dense insulating foam.

They were springs with air in the mattress and they were up on, you know, bed platforms that were like a little higher off the ground.

And that's all you need.

Just springs.

Give me some

springs.

No foam, just springs.

Okay.

Do you have them wrapped in anything or is it just a yeah, like like like maybe maybe a little pillow top, but not a foam pillowtop like some like plush, you know?

I mean, that sounds nice too, but what if we just went back to the point where you're out in like a really cold area, right?

It's like snowing, snow on the ground, ice, and like you're kind of like shivering, freezing, and you know, you need to lay down and sleep.

Just cut open a fucking taunton.

We need to forget mattresses and all of that stuff.

Just have a nice big animal that you raise and then cut it open, get a few good nights' sleep, get a meal.

Do you do you cut open a new one every night?

I mean, if you want that warmth, sure.

But if you're going to eat, I mean, you're going to have to have a pretty big family if you're going to eat all that meat at once.

And then it's like, how many beds are you going to need?

So maybe try to get like four or five nights out of it.

I would love a sub, like, spin-off show of Wade's survival hour of him being like, you know, when you're out in the cold, the snow, and you start to get really sleepy, you should go to bed as soon as possible.

Like, when you're shivering and you're just like, I'm so tired, go to sleep immediately.

I just think that's

you bump your noggin, you're not seeing clearly.

What you should do is sleep immediately.

Sleep it off.

You'll feel better or you won't.

Sleep in an animal.

I'm pretty sure our ancestors did that, and it probably was the best sleep of their life.

There aren't that many animals large enough to crawl inside.

Giraffe, horse, rhino, elephant.

A bear?

Depends on the bear, I guess.

You'd have to.

Overfed German Shepherd.

Kids, maybe.

I wouldn't sleep in a kid, but I guess you could.

Don't look so sad, Mark.

So, okay, and I'll go back to actual topic of beds.

Molly and I got one of the, I think it's like Stern and Foster's the brain.

You had your chance with the taunt on.

It's not your turn.

Yeah, wait, how many, how many ideas do we get to throw out here?

I just thought we were talking.

All right, fine.

Fucking good time.

All right.

I yield my time until I unyield it.

Wade, where were you going with your Sterns and Foster?

I'm just thinking it through.

I really thought foam beds were like the best, and I still really, really like our bed.

Don't get me wrong.

But we moved, we got

a guest bed.

We got like a new guest bed.

And I didn't want to go crazy with the mattress.

So we went to just and got like a spring bed, like you were saying, the spring bed with like a, it's like a box spring with a mattress on top, right?

And it's equally comfortable.

It actually, it was surprising me.

Like that mattress was so comfortable.

I'm just, I just wanted to riff on your point of like, I really thought I needed foam and then I laid on like a just a new mattress on a spring box spring.

And I was like, this is so comfortable.

Why is everyone getting foam?

Why is that the thing?

Because it is comfy, but is it more comfy?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Maybe we just had old mattresses, and we're like, oh, man, an old mattress isn't comfy.

It must be because they're terribly designed.

Not because my mattress is 30 years old.

That's true.

You're only supposed to keep them for like up to a decade tops, I feel like.

And you're supposed to like flip them or rotate them or something every so often.

Yeah, some of them, but some of them say don't flip or rotate.

Some of them are non-symmetrical, right?

If you get a non-symmetrical mattress, you don't want to flip it over because then you're sleeping on the bottom of it.

I don't know, I don't know the technical workings, I just know this can happen.

It's the ones with the fancy cooling technology and foam where the top is designed to, yeah.

I don't know about the rotate, but the flipping, I get the design of that.

I don't know why rotating would make a difference.

Like, if you ever lay upside down on your bed, do you just die?

Probably.

I better install this correctly or else all you belly sleepers out there just courting death.

They pre-give the foot smell at the head of the bed if you have the mattress wrong.

They pre-give the foot smell?

What?

Yeah, that's where your feet go.

So they just have it smell like feet already.

So that way you know that's where your feet go.

I don't know.

I'm that type of person where I'll flip down, sleep on the other side of the bed with your head in the middle of the room.

It's good.

That's weird.

Whoa, okay.

Whoa, that's weird.

Not only is that weird, that's wrong.

I'm gonna write something.

Yeah, write down your hurt feelings and wrongness.

You know what's a good thermal regulator?

You know why people before refrigerators

kept food and perishables in root cellars?

Because the earth is a good thermal regulator.

If it's hot outside, the earth will be cooler.

If it's cold outside, the earth will be warmer.

All we need is the earth.

We should sleep on it.

It's a great earth.

It does many things.

And there are almost definitely no nukes under where we're going to be sleeping.

Those go in the ocean.

I guess you could sleep in the ocean, but that's kind of a

stupid choice.

But like, I feel like it's underutilized, right?

Because you're probably imagining like, oh, you just lay down on the ground and it's what you can, earth is movable.

You can shape it however you want.

Imagine a perfectly dug outline of your body and it's like a little action figure like plastic mounting thing.

You lay down into your perfect body shape, mold it into the earth.

You don't even need a pillow.

You just mold the shape of the neck and the angle you want your head to be at.

You lay down and like perfect temperature regulation, perfect comfort, perfect harmony between you and

Mother Earth as our ancestors would have wanted.

I love it.

So you want to cut open the earth like a taunt on.

And then the great thing is you've got unlimited tauntons to cut open.

Yeah, we don't have, we don't currently have enough tauntons to do Wade's plan, but the Earth is a resource we can exploit endlessly.

I love your idea.

I'm giving you a a full point for it.

I'm giving Wade half a point for credit because I think you're stealing it a little bit.

That's fine.

That's fine.

Yeah.

Credit.

I'll probably give you a half a point back here in a second, Bob with mine.

Question for you guys.

How many people are alive on Earth right now?

More than 10.

Because I know of 10 people, and I know there are other people alive that I don't know.

Have that many people,

that's got to be more than that many people have died throughout history, right?

Yeah.

Oh, lots.

Yeah.

Yes.

Actually, wait.

Google, how many deads are on Earth right now?

Oh, approximately, well, this is AI, but 110 billion, maybe.

Maybe-ish, maybe.

Throughout all of human history.

So that means Bob's idea is great, but we probably already got a lot of holes dug that are people's size where we can also have a cuddle buddy.

We just go live in cemeteries.

I love it.

I hate it.

Then you can have a cuddle buddy, a nice hole already dug.

I know it's half,

I get the, it's Bob's idea.

I'm now jumping on, but.

Yeah.

All right, I'll give you a point.

I'll give half an idea to Bob, or half point.

But man, he was describing the people-size holes, and I was like, we've already got those.

I can go see my dad.

Like, oh, look at our hole, family resemblance, right there.

Look at my hole.

There are many like it, but this one is mine.

There was a total tangent, but I was watching a corridor crew was reacting to someone reacting to their debunking of like alien videos.

And one of the one of the analogies is the guy was like, He was like, Yeah, it's not, it's similar.

It's not the same.

It's similar.

Just like, you know, you can't say that my butthole is the same as yours just because they're similar.

They're different, unique buttholes.

Like, that was the example that he used as to what

was similar and different.

Like, we don't have the same butthole.

They're unique, not fingerprints, not eyes, anything like that.

Just buttholes.

My understanding is that's actually true.

That if you got a butthole print,

every person would have a unique butthole print.

Did Mark disconnect?

I thought he was just that disgusted with you.

Maybe he did disconnect again.

Hello.

I really thought he was just that, like, not having it with what you said.

Oh, here's the text.

I was going to save it for when Mark was here.

I guess we're still rolling.

You've seen the thing where, like, people can have chocolate or candy made from people's butt imprints, haven't you?

No, I've never done it, but uh, I saw an advertisement at some point where you could have a cast made of your butthole, and then they would use that cast to make like a unique chocolate that you could give your significant other of your butthole.

I don't want to Google this.

Butthole chocolate does not seem like the thing I want to without casting any judgment out there to anyone else.

I would my response to that is, I don't want that.

I don't want either direction.

I don't want to be the one giving that to Mandy, or I don't want that from my significant other.

Edible anus.

One unassuming black box containing six identical gourmet milk chocolate sphincters.

Oh, I made the mistake of looking at the chocolates.

I feel like I could guess what that looks like.

They're like little cut-off Pac-Man heads, or the mouth.

is the butthole imprint.

It almost looks like the mouth of like the worms from tremors or something.

Oh, Oh, boy.

I'm going to go back to looking at roll top desks.

I'm just going to cleanse the palette a little bit.

I think I'm going to have this ready just to image share for Mark.

Oh, I can't fully share.

Okay, there's a.

I didn't even realize this.

There's an image of the cast being made.

I probably shouldn't share that.

Hey, look, share what you're going to share, okay?

I don't judge.

There you go.

What were you talking about that made me think of Anus chocolate?

Something about...

I was going to bring up that we have oh okay hey man hey how's it going oh what in the did i walk into

have your anus and eat it too

bob was saying something as you disconnected i forget what was happening as you disconnected but i was talking about how butt your butt hole print is unique that every so it's like fingerprints and then wade was like oh so you must be familiar with this thing where you can make a cast of your anus and have that made into chocolates to give to people.

That you give to your loved one.

So that Wade did this.

Just to be clear, Wade did this.

Okay, yeah, sure.

But Bob inspired it.

Bob, did you inspire this?

I don't know if I can take credit for that.

Technically, what I said came before this.

I think it's a stretch to say I inspired it.

I also am pretty sure you encouraged me to share this with Mark.

Oh, now he's just telling lies.

I don't even know.

All right.

Well,

I'm also saying Mark?

I almost shared just the image result, and there wasn't one image on the image result of a cast being made of a butthole.

So I caught that, thankfully, before that was part of the episode.

Yeah, that's just someone's anus, and you could eat it.

Which is a thing I've always thought I would want.

Said no one ever.

This episode is brought to you by FXX and Hulu.

Futurama returns on September 15th.

I love the show.

It's a great show.

I'm excited for another season.

Anyway, the Planet Express crew is back defying gravity and common sense.

From the creator of The Simpsons, come 10 new episodes where the romance is hotter, the threats are bigger, and the action hits harder.

Don't miss the all-new season of Futurama returning September 15th at 8 p.m.

Watch it on FXX or stream it on Hulu.

This episode is brought to you by Degree.

Degree is for the hustlers who put in the sweat, which we know a thing or two about.

For 35 years, 11 months, 28 28 days, and six hours, I didn't believe in deodorant.

But then, degree came along.

If you can relate to three relatable guys like us, Degree Advance has you covered with up to 72-hour sweat and odor protection.

Degree, here for sweat.

Buy now.

All right, so we're moving on from sleep.

Let's do another one real quick before we obviously keep going over in time and only doing three of a single topic ever.

Cleaning, right?

I'm kind of umbrellaing this.

This is several different ways to clean.

The most egregious versions are like your washing machine is,

for some reason, Wi-Fi connected and has a bajillion settings, not just on and temperature or whatever.

But what really gets me is the Roombas, right?

Because Roombas kind of, and especially the newest ones, kind of represent a funneling down of a lot of things.

It'll clean for you.

It'll map out your house.

It'll send the, it'll upload the schematics of your home to the NSA database, yada, yada.

I feel like the, the, the Roomba is a bridge too far, but I'll take anything cleaning because we're running out of time.

So I'm going to go with what Bob said about fridges.

I think like the 1950s, 60s vacuum cleaners were amazing.

My grandparents had this like, I won't call it shag, but they had like a fluffier, thicker carpet than like normal most carpets are now.

And their vacuum cleaner, not only did it look like it was old as hell, but it worked and it cleaned that carpet.

Now, you can have a vacuum that's like three or four years old that costs like a thousand dollars.

And it feels like the shitty little carpet that's this long, it's like, oh man, that one fuzz from that dog toy, it's never gonna get in there.

Whereas, I don't know, there could have been a whole body in my grandparents' carpet.

I would have never known, but that got that vacuum sucked it right up.

We do not need the new Roombas.

We need those 50s, 60s vacuums when appliances were made to last.

Okay, all right, okay, all right, good.

Good start, Bob.

There's too many characters in cleaning.

I don't need a scrub daddy.

I don't need a scour mama.

I don't need a brush baby.

I don't need a child labor

mop.

Listen,

there's too many characters.

There's too much emotional attachment.

Doesn't make any fucking sense.

I don't need a sponge that smiles at me.

I just need a sponge.

It can be blue, can be yellow with the green scrubby on it, whatever.

It should be a rectangle, or maybe if I'm feeling spicy, it should have a wavy edge.

You know, those sponges where they're all, whoo.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay, all right.

That's all you need.

I don't need, I don't need characters in my cleaning.

I would like a sponge, please.

We don't even need all of that.

Like washing machine, vacuum.

I like the idea of the 1950s appliances, but I'm thinking about it.

You know, whenever settlements used to pop up, a lot of times you'd try to settle around a source of water, like a river.

You know what rivers are good for?

Cleaning.

You just put your clothes in the river.

You put your ewe in the river.

Then there's no shower to clean.

There's no sinks to clean.

You just have your wash basin.

You go rinse out in the river.

Your clothes rinse out in the river.

Your house.

Hell, those things were built on roly logs.

You could probably take the logs and rinse them in the river and put them right back together like a big old Lincoln log set.

River.

We got the cleaning thing.

River.

River.

That's all you need to clean.

I agree.

It's also your toilet.

Yeah, that's true.

Yeah, shit, just a little further downstream than you clean.

But that, see, Wade's idea is built on top of the idea that you have to be settled next to a river or a lake or something.

You have to find that.

People live everywhere now.

We have a lot of people.

They need the ability to live in the middle of nowhere and still have be able to clean.

You know what cleans even more powerfully than water does?

Fire.

All you need to get the stain out, to get the smell to go away, all you need to get to clean whatever it is is a book of matches and the will to do what's necessary.

If you really need something to be clean, fire will clean it.

Cleanse it, even.

You're right.

I've heard that before.

And fire can be anywhere.

You can carry it with you.

I have opinions about them, but they do sell lighters that make fire out of nothing, out of thin air, practically, and lighter fluid.

And

you could literally just rub sticks together.

Boom.

Cleansing fire right there.

All you need.

All right, Wade.

It doesn't get much more clean than that, but does it?

I think it sure does because I think a little prayer goes a long way.

And before that bitch ate that apple, God might have cleaned us himself.

We didn't have to have clothes.

We didn't have to have anything.

We just lived in paradise.

Everything was going so great.

then one little snake comes down and all everything goes to shit but you know what we never hear about the garden of eden dirt never once do i hear dirty or unclean mentioned it is just perfectly good so maybe if people would behave themselves a little fucking bit the man upstairs might cleanse us himself then we don't got to worry about rivers or water or any of that shit we'll just go Bruce Almighty style and be clean.

That's fair.

That's a great point.

I'm not sure how to find it, it, but we'll get there.

Wait, official downgrade suggestion is to go back in time and stop the original sin.

The technology of the original sin has gone too far.

I didn't give up a rib to do laundry.

He's on to something because wasn't it the tree of knowledge or the tree of knowledge that that fruit came from?

And knowledge is what technology is from.

Therefore, get rid of all tech.

Get rid of the knowledge, we could be airheaded in the Garden of Eden forever.

I can do you one better.

I've already established that fire is the cleansiest cleanse you can have.

What could offer more

energy in the form of heat and fire than the Big Bang itself?

If we simply recompacted the universe into the singularity from whence it came and just stayed right there.

No banging, just single and singularitizing.

If we just stay right in there, nothing can get dirty.

Everything is clean.

Everything is also sort of technically dirty, but also there is no dirt because all the energy and heat in the universe is all just

the purest form of clean we could be.

You're absolutely right, 100%.

They solved it.

Okay, all right.

We'll call it there.

There is no, much like most of these solutions, there is no problem if there's no nothing.

All right, good.

That's smart thinking.

No problem if there is no.

So the fridge problem, the keeping food cold was Dyson Sphere of the Sun with no Wi-Fi in the Dyson sphere.

Yep.

No Wi-Fi.

It would be completely cold.

The sleeping one cut open the earth.

The cleaning one was just never have a universe to begin with.

It'll never get dirty.

All right.

So we're going to start with Bob on calculating the points here.

This is a complex episode.

I docked a point right off the bat, Bob.

I gotta say, you were shitting on the listeners, and I think we've been a little too tough on them.

This point is conditional.

If a viewer, if it, if the wheel says viewer point, I'm going to give this back because the universe is saying that the listeners don't deserve that kind of treatment.

And it will, because we know this will happen.

So, if a viewer gets a point, this gets reversed.

You got the segue point with the cabinet.

Keep the kaiju out.

Ocean master 1950s fridge.

Ice age solution.

Nuke.

Boo foam for beds.

Cut open the earth.

Half a point for credit from Wade.

No brush babies.

Fire cleanses all.

And then no banging, just singling.

All right, Wade.

You were uncouth.

Sextol saxophone.

You got half a point for Boald.

Equestrian.

Carbon sequestration.

Oh,

I don't remember

why.

Big capacity.

Fuck Earth.

Sleep in an animal.

Half a point for credit from Bob.

Live in cemeteries.

1950s vacuums were better.

River cleans everything.

Go back to the Garden of Eden.

That's complex.

Let's just go ahead and spin the wheels to get to where we are.

I'll get you one to put on there.

Is, is, is.

Firstly, how many bonus points shall there be?

Two, interesting.

Interesting, interesting.

All right.

And what are you adding to the wheel, sir?

I want to add

most misheard.

Misheard the most.

So usually this would be a wait point.

It's almost exclusively a wade point.

I am going to shuffle this again.

For fairness, it is shuffled.

I did one shuffle, and then we get two spins.

Two spins.

Ready?

Yep.

Come on, universe.

Most self-sabotage.

Did any of us lose points for anything today?

I did lose a point at the beginning for talking a lot of shit about listeners.

That would be sabotage.

That's closest we got.

It's the only lost point.

It makes sense.

I can't argue that.

Spin number two.

Oh, it was one away from point for viewers.

Did either of you eat at all?

No, it was probably were you drinking anything, Wade?

Because I drank

sipping my sprite.

I drank approximately eight ounces of liquid.

I've not, yeah, we've probably both just been drinking.

There's been no eating.

I have not eaten anything.

You know, and pick their nose and eat the booger.

But on camera, bro.

All right, respin, respin, respin.

Spin again.

Come on,

viewer points.

All right, it's Scottish accent time.

Oh, fuck.

My guys, it's Scottish accent time.

Who's got it?

Who's got it?

Well, Laddie, I think it's time for us to spin the wheel.

One of us is coming out ahead.

That's going to be tough, Bob.

I didn't think either of us had a Scottish accent.

Oh,

I really need this point.

Oh, that's Russian.

I don't do Scottish.

Come on, man.

I really need this point.

Please give me the point.

Incredible.

I'm going to eek it over to Wade there.

I'm going to give Wade just the Scottish point.

I'm from Moscow.

Oh,

me bangers and mash.

You know, mine's no better, but it's not better in a different direction.

So I think that I think we can give this to Wade here.

All right.

And that concludes one of the tightest games I've ever judged in my life.

Scottish was a little unfair, wasn't it?

What's it about?

I don't know.

I just said it.

I said, oh, man, the Scottish felt a little unfair.

Scottish is unfair.

All right.

So that's what it is.

Oh, my God.

Wade.

I'm sorry.

I just said it.

I wasn't thinking.

So if it's all heads, I get the Scottish accent point.

If it's all tails, Wade gets another Scottish accent point.

That's the deal?

Sure.

Yep.

Absolutely.

Fuck.

Wait, no, he gets what he wanted.

If he said it was unfair, if it comes all heads, we have to reverse it to oppose the unfairness.

If it goes all the other ways, then it becomes.

No, no, you're right.

You're right.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

Everybody ready?

I mean, it's probably not going to happen.

So it's probably

tails.

Okay, you're lucky.

You're lucky, Wade.

You're lucky.

I don't know if that would have helped me or screwed me in the end.

I really don't.

You know why you're lucky?

Because you were in the lead.

You almost undid did your own lead you're so lucky that's two a three you're so lucky all right anyway with 10 and a half points before the wheels bob you had 10 and a half plus one puts you at 11 and a half wade you had 11 points before the wheel with your scottish accent that you almost snatched from your own jaws of victory of defeat wade congratulations you have broken your losing streak with 12 points it's been 84 years not really but it feels like it's been a while since I've won or hosted one.

Maybe just because we haven't seen each other in a minute, or maybe it's because I've really sucked this year.

But man, going from being the grand champion of Distractible for the first 10 years, I've had a really rough 11th year so far, but I'm glad it's turning around.

Is that your speech?

I guess that was your speech.

All right, so good speech.

I just want to clarify that I think technically Distractible has been a thing for four years, I think.

Four, just over four?

Or is it five?

No, it's four.

Four in its distractible incarnation.

So, uh, I don't know what time frame Wade was talking about, but that's about as coherent as the rest of everything that he said today.

I understand that sometimes you have to throw a dog a bone, keep him, you know, keep him in line, but I feel like I shone pretty brightly in today's episode, and I really felt like I deserved to eke it out.

And Coins almost had my back on the stupid Scottish accent.

Stupid point.

And it was literally one away from point for listeners or viewers.

It was on one of those spins.

That would have been one less for me and one more for you, which might have been the difference.

But it wasn't.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on who you're rooting for at home.

Sorry.

Oh, no, not sorry, listeners.

I got your back this time.

So that stuck very momentous.

And we've changed people's lives forever.

Getting that ground.

Dyson's fear of the sun and blow everything, unblow everything back to the big bang.

Thank you for listening to Distractible.

There are rumblings of merch.

Rumblings like the nuke in the base halt on the floor of the ocean.

Ooh, wah uh.

I don't know why I did that.

If you want more of what Wade has to offer,

he's over at Minion 777 or Lord Minion 777.

Bob's over at MyScreen, I'm Markiplier.

This has been Distractible.

Tune in.

We got more fun stuff coming at you real soon.

Or more fun stuff in the past that you can go listen to.

There are some pretty good episodes around.

Going backwards is for idiots.

That's what I learned.

You know, listen to a loser like him or a winner like Wade.

What's your opinion, Wade?

Gotta stop the original sin.

We gotta go back.
