Speaker 5 Hello and welcome to another episode of the Regulation Podcast. This is episode 77.
My name is Jeff Ramsey. With me, as always, Andrew Panton, Gavin Free, Eric Bedor, Nick Schwartz.

Speaker 5 Nothing's going to stop this fucking intro.

Speaker 5 Certainly not

Speaker 5 the anxiety. Eric and I were talking before we started the podcast before anybody else showed up.

Speaker 5 Has anybody else experienced an unbelievable amount of anxiety around recording these episodes for some reason?

Speaker 2 These specific ones? Yes.

Speaker 2 Really? Why?

Speaker 5 I don't know.

Speaker 5 I was telling Eric when he came in this morning that I've had, I've been so, I don't know, since I got back from Detroit, I've just had this level of anxiety about today i even woke up at 6 00 a.m on the dot this morning and just stared at the ceiling until my alarm went off at 7 30.

Speaker 5 i just i i don't know what it is i just like i just am nervous about 77 and 78 or just recording in general but i can't it's just been hitting me in waves and i it never happens like this i don't know what it is i really don't

Speaker 3 and eric eric you similar i've just had over like the last week and i don't know what it is uh

Speaker 3 I just had like weird bouts of anxiety where all of a sudden I'll be like reading a book or something.

Speaker 3 And it's like, oh, I need to put this down and like close my eyes and take deep breaths for like a few minutes. And I can't pinpoint, I don't have like a generalized anxiety.

Speaker 3 I'm a, you know, an anxious guy just in general, but like not a, oh my God, this is like hitting me and I'm feeling it. And I, that probably happened like four or five times over like the last week.

Speaker 5 Were you reading The Shining?

Speaker 3 Yeah, it was making me scared. Yeah, I'm reading a book where I'm worried it's something's going to jump out at me.

Speaker 2 Was it a pop-up book? Because that'll happen. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then the next page, something's coming out at me.

Speaker 9 Is there a pop-up version of The Shining? That'd be sick.

Speaker 6 What if it was a pop-up book called Jump Scare? And just every page is like, ah!

Speaker 7 Should we invent this book? Gotcha.

Speaker 2 Gotcha.

Speaker 2 Would try to scariest book possible?

Speaker 6 I just like a pop-up book that's all jump scares.

Speaker 3 Every page, no story.

Speaker 5 Debs, Debs, trademark, register.

Speaker 2 You can't do it.

Speaker 5 It's a regulation idea. We had it first.

Speaker 5 Uniform is

Speaker 5 already, lawyers are already at work.

Speaker 9 What if we all submit one page of the scary pop? Mine will be, I think, just a bill from the IRS. Page one.

Speaker 5 Yeah, that'd be scary.

Speaker 2 Scottie

Speaker 2 pop up.

Speaker 6 I'm glad you're writing that down.

Speaker 3 Yeah, he's he's writing it down. I don't know that there's some, I don't know that this has legs, but we can try.

Speaker 5 It's my anxiety. I can't.
I'm scared. I'll forget it.
So I have to. Oh, what if the book had legs? That's scary.

Speaker 3 I think if I, I think, okay. I think if I submitted a page, ominous doctor's note would be my, uh, would be the thing that I submit.
Just ominous, like scary doctor's note.

Speaker 5 I submit you're laying in bed. It's like a person laying in bed, and then you, and then a microphone pops up, and you have to record it.

Speaker 2 And it's like, ah,

Speaker 2 podcast 78.

Speaker 6 You know how like books will have age ratings for them as far as like this book is best for like five to seven year olds. It is that, but what's the pop-up scare is age-dependent.

Speaker 6 So like in your, it's like 40 to 45, it is tax tough.

Speaker 6 It is losing your prescription or like realizing you're at a pills.

Speaker 9 Yeah, like your... Your 401k just ate shit and it's recommended for like 55 year olds.

Speaker 7 Yeah, like the life problems shift.

Speaker 5 It's a call from the doctor that says it's malignant.

Speaker 6 Have a book that's just 80 plus and every page is you're dead. You're dead.

Speaker 9 I feel like seeing 18 plus on something

Speaker 9 just it looks so scary and serious from when I was a kid and I couldn't like consume that content. But if it said like 25 plus, that for some reason is less scary to me.

Speaker 9 There's something so severe about the number 18.

Speaker 3 Yeah, no, I agree.

Speaker 3 It seems like a big

Speaker 3 cutoff where it's like, that's adult. But if it said 31, I'd be like, what?

Speaker 2 I'm intrigued. What is 31 plus?

Speaker 6 It's funny you say that because that's the Canadian movie rating system. We don't have R.
It goes to 18A.

Speaker 9 Oh, yeah, yeah. We have like 12A, 15, 18.

Speaker 3 Oh, I thought you meant something was 31 plus.

Speaker 5 You said it goes to 18A?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 5 Does the A stand for anal? Like when you're 18, you can see anal? Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 5 18 anal. Yeah.
18 to A.

Speaker 6 Only films that have at least 18 anuses in it are allowed to have the 18A rating.

Speaker 7 It's more of a guideline, I guess, than a rating.

Speaker 9 What is the lowest rated movie with an anus in it?

Speaker 6 Like exposed anus or just what are we talking?

Speaker 9 Yeah, like a visible anus. Has there ever been an anus in like a 15?

Speaker 6 15? There are not many movies that have visible anuses in them generally. Yeah.

Speaker 6 I don't really capture the anus all that much.

Speaker 9 Did Game of Thrones have an anus?

Speaker 5 There was a...

Speaker 5 I don't think so. There was a thing they just did on the Howard Stern show where they did an embedded, where

Speaker 5 they filmed Ham Hans Bill shitting because he's paraplegic and he has a nurse that helps him do it. And they filmed his actual anus.
And apparently the footage is the grossest footage ever filmed.

Speaker 5 And Howard refused to let it be shown.

Speaker 9 Yeah. I mean, even you describing it was the grossest thing ever filmed.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's pretty bad. Pretty bad.

Speaker 6 I'm trying to think. I can't think of film anuses.

Speaker 5 So I'm thinking there probably aren't a lot of mainstream anus movies.

Speaker 6 yeah that's fair even in canada where it's hyper-legal it's weird i feel like i've seen more urethras than i have anuses whoa what the fuck are you saying i'm thinking about like jackass

Speaker 6 there's like a lot of dick and jackass

Speaker 5 but i can't think of buttholes yeah you get like a x-rays of buttholes like with the toy car and stuff but yeah Dave England had

Speaker 9 some

Speaker 9 the poo volcano, didn't he?

Speaker 6 He did. That's true, but I feel like that's a side profile, right?

Speaker 4 Yeah.

Speaker 5 And there is the one where they're shooting the bottle rockets out of Steve-O's butt, I believe.

Speaker 9 That was a classic.

Speaker 6 Feeling less anxious now, Jeff?

Speaker 3 Gavin, if you could pick a jackass stunt to film in slow motion, do you have one in mind? Is there one that like off the rip, you're like, oh,

Speaker 3 I wish I could have done that?

Speaker 9 Oh, that's such a great question. I mean, they did start using a ton of slow-mo after the third movie.

Speaker 9 I'm trying to think of an old one. Maybe, like, if it could be lit.
Well, the one where they were all in the back of the truck.

Speaker 3 That's such a good idea.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 9 Because there must have slams in that one.

Speaker 2 Hmm.

Speaker 6 I'm trying to think, like, what would be the most watchable film entirely in slow-motion?

Speaker 5 I think we saw it. It was 300.

Speaker 6 Yeah, that was a lot of, yeah, that's fair.

Speaker 9 I would love to see that movie sped up to real time.

Speaker 5 It'd be 18 minutes long.

Speaker 6 I'm imagining a film less designed for it, though. Like driving Miss Daisy entirely in slow motion.

Speaker 9 12 Angry Men.

Speaker 9 Waiting for Godot.

Speaker 2 Glenn Gary's waiting for me.

Speaker 3 They're just waiting for so long. The wait just

Speaker 3 feels insurmountable.

Speaker 9 I have a question for Andrew.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 9 Last week we talked about you pissing in the night, and I was wondering if you started the test of not drinking anything before bed.

Speaker 2 No.

Speaker 10 No, I haven't. That's a good call.

Speaker 6 I got real mad about a night pee last night.

Speaker 2 Oh.

Speaker 6 So

Speaker 6 it hit me.

Speaker 9 You had an angry night piss?

Speaker 6 Yeah, I just really didn't feel it. I was still awake.

Speaker 6 I was just playing some games and then...

Speaker 2 Wait,

Speaker 5 you were up playing games and it annoyed you?

Speaker 6 Yeah, because I was ready to go to bed, but then it was like, now I got to get up and it becomes a whole thing.

Speaker 6 Like, I'm gonna become more wick surely a part of going to bed do you not pee before going to bed well some like the process of going to bed and sleeping are two different things entirely i went to bed probably three hours before i initiated like okay it's time for sleep so were you playing video games in bed then from bed ah gotcha so i was in bed i stretched out looked at the phone a little bit Then I got really hooked on playing Bollocks Pit, which I'm liking a lot.

Speaker 5 Downloaded it today at your recommendation.

Speaker 6 So much fun.

Speaker 9 What's Bollocks Pit?

Speaker 2 It is

Speaker 6 like Brickbreaker, but as a roguelike, it is very satisfying. Numbers are popping out.
You're upgrading things. It is good.
It's a good loop. So that is, it's like a time sink.

Speaker 6 So I spent like three hours playing that. And I was like, I should go to bed.
I got to get up for the podcast and make sure I'm like alert, all good.

Speaker 6 Ah, but I got to pee.

Speaker 6 And it

Speaker 6 really threw a wrench into things.

Speaker 9 To me, me, the tiniest little wrench.

Speaker 9 It's like a Christmas cracker wrench.

Speaker 6 Well, but like when you get up, you become more alert.

Speaker 2 I was all alert. I'm a little bit games for three hours, you get more alert.

Speaker 6 No, I slowly drift off. I slowly get sleepy.
Then I'm like in a sleep state and I'm like, I'm ready to go. But then it's like,

Speaker 6 I contemplated, do I just sleep through? And I was like, nah, I really need to pee. Like, I'm going to, if I go to sleep, I'm going to wake up in like two hours.

Speaker 9 You surely have a more procedure procedure than just pissing like you got you already like brush your garb and everything yeah it was all it was all good and then three hours later you thought i'll go to sleep yeah

Speaker 6 because i was ready for sleep i really wanted to play ball x pit more honestly uh

Speaker 2 but

Speaker 5 i i had to go to bed and then i had to pee i always feel weird when i agree with andrew but i I do understand what he's saying and I'm kind of right there with him.

Speaker 5 It is like you're almost asleep and then you could go to sleep and then take the risk that you can sleep through the night without needing to piss, which sometimes work.

Speaker 5 Or you get up and you go piss, but by the time you get back to bed, you're wide awake now and you have to like spend another 20 minutes on your phone to re-fall asleep or play ball X pit or whatever.

Speaker 5 It is, it is, it is annoying. And there is that moment where you're like, I could just try to go to sleep and maybe make it through the night and then not have to go the next.

Speaker 9 Yeah. Have you considered a bed pan?

Speaker 2 No, thanks.

Speaker 6 That's way more. No, it's terrible.

Speaker 2 It's a terrible idea.

Speaker 5 I don't understand how those are supposed to work. Like, have you ever used a bedpan? I don't think I have.

Speaker 5 And I just don't understand how I'm supposed to piss into something that's shaped like a shallow kitten.

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 9 do you sit on it or do you turn on your front and put your knob in it and piss?

Speaker 2 Let me just roll over here.

Speaker 9 I see them all the time, and I just think. I've never used one and I have no idea the geography of its use.
Is there a picture somewhere of someone using one?

Speaker 3 Not like jackass style.

Speaker 5 Is that what we're looking for? I'd like to see it because every time I see a bedpan, I think, okay, you're going to use that.

Speaker 5 And then immediately you have to strip the sheets and then wash the sheets because you've spilled piss or shit all over the bed, guaranteed. There's no way.
Yeah, surely it will.

Speaker 9 So it's for shitting too.

Speaker 6 Yeah, it's everything.

Speaker 9 Yeah. I just feel like I would, if I was shitting in it, I would definitely piss out of it.

Speaker 3 You would piss out of it?

Speaker 9 Well, they're two different directions of

Speaker 9 EVAC.

Speaker 2 Right, right.

Speaker 3 But it's not just like it's like it's a small thing. It's like you're like a full, it's like a full thing

Speaker 3 under you, like taking like a lot of space under you.

Speaker 2 Yeah, okay.

Speaker 9 It's just like sitting on a normal toilet.

Speaker 2 But lying down.

Speaker 2 Oh, they, oh, they press it into your ass.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 5 they're definitely spilling piss and shit everywhere.

Speaker 2 Well, there is a dollar.

Speaker 2 Oh, I see. That's

Speaker 2 that's oh, I had no idea it would be

Speaker 3 there is also a urinal or urinal is uh, you could say, but it's a drug.

Speaker 2 It's a female one. Yeah,

Speaker 9 fracture bedpan.

Speaker 6 So, no, that wasn't a solution. I can't see it.

Speaker 3 Just so everyone knows right now, our chat, like our Discord chat, is just me and Nick sending so many pictures of like

Speaker 3 drawings and

Speaker 2 diagrams and schematics.

Speaker 3 This one is just the one we saw earlier, but closer.

Speaker 2 Oh, no!

Speaker 2 That should be

Speaker 5 can that be the thumbnail?

Speaker 9 Or will I get in trouble?

Speaker 3 We probably shouldn't. I found a picture of a used bedpan.
You don't want to see that.

Speaker 2 I kind of do.

Speaker 5 I kind of do want to see it.

Speaker 2 Okay. No.

Speaker 2 Okay. Don't look, dickhead.

Speaker 5 I want to see it.

Speaker 9 Used how?

Speaker 9 Oh!

Speaker 5 Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. That's what I think would happen.
There you go.

Speaker 3 Okay, Gavin, it's gone.

Speaker 2 Gavin, it's gone.

Speaker 3 No, I understand.

Speaker 9 So I have a...

Speaker 9 Ooh, so maybe shit aside, would anyone

Speaker 9 use a bedpan that's being held by me?

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 10 Like as a joke?

Speaker 9 Like what?

Speaker 9 It's just as a bit. Like, if I gloved up, we put a mat.

Speaker 6 Yeah, I think everyone's fine with it as a bit.

Speaker 9 Oh, you would do it?

Speaker 6 I think everyone here would do it because you're the one that's going to suffer the consequences.

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 9 you're the one who has to have your ass out and piss in a

Speaker 2 pan.

Speaker 6 I think it's way worse on your end than 100%.

Speaker 5 You might be right.

Speaker 5 You're in charge of the blast zone.

Speaker 5 Yeah.

Speaker 4 Could uh

Speaker 6 could I could I share something that the positive of me having to pee?

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 6 So I was up. I was like, fuck, I'm up.
I might as well sit at my desk for a bit. And I was just looking at things on the Xbox store.

Speaker 6 And I was going to save this as a surprise, but Jeff talking about thumbnails.

Speaker 6 I think

Speaker 6 this might be a thing to beat.

Speaker 6 This is a thing I discovered on the store that I purchased.

Speaker 6 Let me introduce to you.

Speaker 6 None other than a game called Green Giant Back Miami.

Speaker 6 This is the product image for it.

Speaker 6 It's loading right now.

Speaker 6 It is a.

Speaker 6 That might not be a photo. I don't know what that is.
We'll see what happens.

Speaker 2 What are you? What are you doing? I still do see a dirty dead shot.

Speaker 6 Are you sure?

Speaker 2 Is it too powerful?

Speaker 6 It's a PNG file.

Speaker 6 Is it.

Speaker 2 Hey!

Speaker 2 Yeah!

Speaker 2 There we go. It just popped up.

Speaker 3 No, it didn't pop up. I found it and sent it.

Speaker 5 It's the incredible Hulk with a goatee and tribal tattoos.

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 6 It's called Green Giant Back Miami.

Speaker 9 So it's not the Hulk or the Green Giant.

Speaker 6 Well, see,

Speaker 7 the game, your favorite game is back.

Speaker 6 The Green Giant is back on the streets of Miami.

Speaker 3 So, but the thing is, if I'm looking at gameplay, that's not what he looks like. It's just the Hulk Hulk and it's Hulk assets.

Speaker 3 And I really liked this one screenshot that says, but unfortunately, with the incredible Hulk Hulk.

Speaker 9 So this is like a money laundering thing, right?

Speaker 2 There are no reviews of it.

Speaker 9 It's E for everyone.

Speaker 5 It is E for everyone.

Speaker 9 The Hulk in that picture looks like in the second one, it looks like he's being yelled at by his mom.

Speaker 6 He does. He does.

Speaker 3 you forgot to take the trash out what did you do to the bank

Speaker 2 sorry

Speaker 6 so i just i saw green giant back and i was like this is a game for me and then i saw hulk with tribal tattoos and pedestrians running so we could be the first review of this video game oh absolutely yeah uh number one one baby we should that should be our new our new show first review gaming first review gaming like we we can only review stuff that's never been reviewed before Yeah.

Speaker 3 Have you played this yet, Andrew?

Speaker 6 I loaded in to make sure it would work. And then I wanted to save it from when we record a video.

Speaker 5 Single player, I assume? No.

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 3 Can we do it as soon as we're done with our podcast recording?

Speaker 3 Can this be one of our let's play?

Speaker 2 Absolutely.

Speaker 2 Great idea. Cream Try and Pack My House.
Absolutely great idea.

Speaker 3 Stop saying it.

Speaker 2 We need to record it before it's removed from the game.

Speaker 6 Oh, I installed it and I am not deleting it. I do not trust that it will not get pulled.

Speaker 6 I also discovered something on the store. that I think is wild that I've never noticed before.
Jeff, do you mind? Do you think it would be too spoilery to get into

Speaker 6 how

Speaker 6 a recent series of videos we filmed ended? Our disappointment?

Speaker 5 I think you're referring to...

Speaker 5 Yes, go ahead if you want to talk about it. Are you talking about the hotel?

Speaker 6 I am talking about the hotel. So Jeff and I have filmed a series of Let's Plays in a game called Murder Mystery Hotel, I think.

Speaker 2 Is that what it's something like?

Speaker 5 I think so. Murder Mystery Hotel or Hidden Hotel Murder Mysteries or something.

Speaker 6 I mean, I'm pulling it up right now. So we're playing through it.
It's Mystery Hotel Hidden Objects is the name of the game.

Speaker 6 It is one of those games where there's like an image of a bird and you have to find the bird in the background and click it and it's revealing a story.

Speaker 6 But

Speaker 6 the story is solved the riddle of the mysterious murder at the Hotel Noir. So Jeff and I got very invested in this game trying to figure out who murdered grandma.

Speaker 9 Looks like a DVD menu.

Speaker 6 It does look like a DVD menu.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Oh, yeah, that's that's one of the levels.

Speaker 3 This sucks.

Speaker 2 Here's a picture. It's gravity.

Speaker 4 Bro, you don't even know what you're talking about. Hey, Gavin,

Speaker 3 find hat saw.

Speaker 6 Listen.

Speaker 6 It'd be difficult.

Speaker 2 Wait till you have a win.

Speaker 5 And wait till you might be in the second video before you discover you can pan left and right.

Speaker 11 That's true.

Speaker 2 There's all sorts of reveals.

Speaker 6 We filmed four of these.

Speaker 6 And the story ends.

Speaker 2 Spoiler warning.

Speaker 6 The story ends with a random to be continued. You do not get a resolution to this case.

Speaker 11 No.

Speaker 6 It just goes to be continued to the point where Jeff and I didn't realize that the game was technically over.

Speaker 6 And we filmed an additional part trying to figure out how to continue and establishing that that is actually how it ended.

Speaker 7 We had to Google it.

Speaker 5 And in the video, I found a Steam thread

Speaker 5 where somebody said, hey, am I crazy or does this game just stop? Is there supposed to be more game here? And one of the developers responded and said, don't worry, more coming soon.

Speaker 5 And that was from April.

Speaker 9 So you made a four-part series where the fourth video happens after the end?

Speaker 2 Yes. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Technically, the end is in the third part, and we didn't know that the game had ended.

Speaker 3 What did you do? What is the fourth part? What do you think?

Speaker 6 The fourth part is trying to figure out if there's more game and then getting some achievements and trying some of the different modes that we hadn't played within the game.

Speaker 6 Because it's like a five-star scenario.

Speaker 5 Yeah, we made the fourth part's great.

Speaker 6 So it's a three-part story and a four-part like establishing and processing everything that's happened to us to this point.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 6 I learned yesterday, I've never noticed this, that if you go on the Xbox store, if you go into a game, there is a tab that says more info and you click it.

Speaker 6 And it tells you like some stuff about the game. It gives you an email for the studio.
It gives you an address for the studio.

Speaker 6 And it gives you a phone number for the studio i don't know where this phone number leads jeff should i phone this number to see if we can get an update on mystery hotel part two please please

Speaker 2 okay

Speaker 5 as fans of this series i think we deserve an answer i think we do i think an update would be nice in some respect my grandparents send me these animated e-cards for all of my birthday and christmas stuff it looks just like these yeah yeah yeah You think it's dumb, but wait till you have to find 15 things and you've only got 60 seconds.

Speaker 5 And if you misclick, it counts against you because you're trying to get the multiplier to get five stars. It's no fucking joke.

Speaker 2 All right.

Speaker 5 It's no fucking joke.

Speaker 9 Jeff, did you get the e-card my grandparents sent you, by the way, for your 50th birthday?

Speaker 2 I didn't. Did they send me one? Yeah.

Speaker 6 You got to check your email, man.

Speaker 3 You got to find it, man. You got to find it.

Speaker 5 They didn't send it to my old rooster TV.

Speaker 2 Oh, they definitely did, right?

Speaker 9 I gave them your current one.

Speaker 5 Oh, shit. I'll have to look at my spam.

Speaker 11 I want it desperately.

Speaker 9 Yeah, because it comes from the e-card service, not from like an actual person. Oh.

Speaker 6 Because I don't know what time it is. I don't know whose number this is.
I don't know what time it is where this place is. What is EE? Does anyone know what country or place EE is?

Speaker 2 EE? What? EE.

Speaker 3 What do you mean?

Speaker 5 It's Estonia. It's the Republic of Estonia.

Speaker 2 What?

Speaker 6 What time is it in Estonia right now? Do we know?

Speaker 9 It'll probably be like 6 or 7 p.m.

Speaker 6 Okay. I'm calling.

Speaker 3 7:30.

Speaker 5 7.26 p.m.

Speaker 3 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 Why are we calling Estonia?

Speaker 5 We want to get an update on the game.

Speaker 3 And what are you going to ask?

Speaker 9 Maybe you can leave a message.

Speaker 9 Hello?

Speaker 6 Hello? Hi, is this 2K Studio?

Speaker 2 Hi, yes. Hi.

Speaker 6 I was calling, just so you know, I'm on a podcast.

Speaker 11 I'm recording a podcast.

Speaker 6 I just finished Mystery Hotel Hidden Objects. Absolutely loved it.
I saw that it ended with a 2B continued. Is there any information on when that next part will come out?

Speaker 6 Hello?

Speaker 2 I'm glad to hear it. Sorry.
Yeah, no problem.

Speaker 2 Thank you for your feedback.

Speaker 2 Yep.

Speaker 2 Next game is this January

Speaker 6 No, No, no, no,

Speaker 6 we give them

Speaker 2 many, many games. And

Speaker 2 we don't have any game in

Speaker 2 the game. I gotta say.

Speaker 2 I gotta say, guys, while he's talking, I missed this answer. Okay.

Speaker 5 The one that just calls random numbers.

Speaker 6 Well, thank you so much for picking up, and I hope you're having a wonderful day. And I can't wait for the next part of Mr.
Games.

Speaker 3 Does not know what you're saying.

Speaker 2 I'll talk to you later. All right.

Speaker 2 Oh,

Speaker 2 you'll talk to him later?

Speaker 9 We'll be in touch.

Speaker 3 You said I'll talk to you later?

Speaker 2 Yeah, I'll call him.

Speaker 4 So I didn't hear quite a lot that way.

Speaker 9 So he said December?

Speaker 2 I don't first he give us a recap.

Speaker 5 We couldn't really hear.

Speaker 6 Okay, so it was also a little bit hard to hear him because of you guys. We're so much louder than he was.

Speaker 6 I think, first of all, I think that that is just that dude's private number. I feel so bad.

Speaker 4 I thought it would go to like a studio line.

Speaker 6 He's just on home watching tv this man estonia just getting randomly asked about his game he said i from what i could gather first of all he appreciated the feedback he was excited about that

Speaker 6 i i don't think he understood 90 of the words i said it was like he was trying to process them which is very understandable yeah

Speaker 6 getting called at 7 30 at night by a random canadian yeah and also it gave me an ontario number when i put it in

Speaker 6 which really threw me because i don't think I called Ontario, but maybe I did.

Speaker 2 I'm not sure.

Speaker 9 So that wasn't an international call.

Speaker 6 I assumed that that would be an international call. Well, I don't know how to feel about it because everything's listed like it's international.

Speaker 3 But but did you have to do a plus like a country code?

Speaker 6 I did, I did a plus one because it was, I just wrote out the number, how it was displayed, and it gave me an Ontario thing. I don't know.

Speaker 9 So wait,

Speaker 9 wait,

Speaker 2 plus one.

Speaker 9 You put North America

Speaker 9 on an Estonian phone number?

Speaker 3 You just called a guy.

Speaker 9 Did he know about the game?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 6 He said that they had plenty of games.

Speaker 2 It was the right number.

Speaker 9 I wonder if he just rerouted a.

Speaker 9 Oh, maybe.

Speaker 3 I don't understand how you put a plus one and it got you to who you needed to.

Speaker 2 I don't.

Speaker 6 I put the number in that was displayed.

Speaker 6 And we got there. But so, okay, it doesn't sound like there's a date for, but there are other games apparently.

Speaker 5 on the way yeah we'll have to reveal have to go into the audio so we're never gonna catch this fucking killer

Speaker 6 you know i think there is a to be continued maybe there's gonna be some more excitement about mystery hotel hidden objects and they'll see a bump and they'll be like we gotta get back to this like are we just gonna spend the rest of our lives at this lady's mansion by the water while she has us because wasn't she gonna hire us to solve her own mystery i don't even know what that is yeah that's so we we got a lot of questions do we want to call anybody else?

Speaker 6 Any other games? So before we move on.

Speaker 3 So it's is this the studio? Because there's a lot of other games that they have.

Speaker 6 I don't know.

Speaker 6 When you say, is this the studio? What do you mean by the game?

Speaker 2 I'm sharing my screen right now.

Speaker 3 Is there a world where we play Cyber Wild West?

Speaker 3 Because I might be real into this.

Speaker 5 Dude, I'll be honest with you. Cyber Wild West looks a hell of a lot like

Speaker 5 Hidden Hotel Mystery Objects.

Speaker 9 So I'm the kind kind of thing that's going to

Speaker 9 20 minutes in, I've got a headache.

Speaker 3 This looks like the kind of thing that I think, Gavin, your wife would really like to do.

Speaker 3 Is this a thing that Meg would like?

Speaker 9 Hidden Objects with Edgar Poe. I've never heard him called Edgar Poe.

Speaker 2 Time Trap. Time Trap 2?

Speaker 7 Andrew, I think we have a lot.

Speaker 4 We have a lot of hidden objects.

Speaker 3 I'm looking up Edgar Poe on the store right now.

Speaker 5 Hidden Objects with Edgar Poe is on the Xbox store.

Speaker 6 Jeff, we got our next one.

Speaker 9 There's one just called Aladdin.

Speaker 3 Beauty and the Beast.

Speaker 5 Beauty and the Beast.

Speaker 5 There's the original time trap.

Speaker 3 The original.

Speaker 5 Around the World in 80 Days Hidden Objects.

Speaker 2 Romance with Chocolate.

Speaker 5 That's a game.

Speaker 10 I'm very confused. There's Captain.

Speaker 2 You will meet new animals.

Speaker 2 There's a game called

Speaker 2 Hidden Animals, and it just says you will meet new animals.

Speaker 5 It's like a threat.

Speaker 2 And look, the top of it is the Wikipedia logo.

Speaker 2 Detective Holruts. Oh, my God.

Speaker 2 Dude, God.

Speaker 3 You guys have found something that I never would have found. I've no, this is just clip art that I've had no interest in.
This is incredible.

Speaker 5 Dude, we have to play every one of these games. This is a four.

Speaker 6 Is this all under two cakes?

Speaker 3 This is Crisp App.

Speaker 11 Okay, so this is what Crisp App is.

Speaker 6 It's the same company, I guess.

Speaker 3 That's what it looks like because I searched for the developer of your hidden mystery game and it gave me this.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 6 Oh, God. Interesting.

Speaker 9 For everyone watching or listening on a podcast app,

Speaker 9 you can see all this on the YouTube version of this episode. Yeah.

Speaker 5 There's a lot of images.

Speaker 2 Oh, man. Any other games?

Speaker 6 Oh, wow. You want to call before I move on?

Speaker 3 No, it looks like a lot of these maybe are on the app store for your telephone so yeah

Speaker 6 they all well wait

Speaker 9 can you call rock star and ask when gta 6 is coming out give me a second

Speaker 2 just feel like we could have some

Speaker 9 breaking news here yeah

Speaker 6 wait what did you why did you search gta 5 because i got to pull it up on the xbox store so i can get to

Speaker 2 a more info section but you refused

Speaker 6 well no because i'm going through the xbox store to get the more info

Speaker 5 this guy is, he's an Xbox wizard. He showed me the other day something I had no idea.
You can unhide hidden achievements and see what the requirements are.

Speaker 2 You can just unplug. Yeah, that's been a hard time.

Speaker 4 And it says like, unhide.

Speaker 2 A long time.

Speaker 5 I used to run a fucking...

Speaker 2 I was like the first dude with achievements, and I had no fucking clue.

Speaker 9 I wonder if that's something you knew about and then forgot, or whether you genuinely never knew about that.

Speaker 5 I think it probably, it was probably a feature that was added after I quit quit gaming or quit caring.

Speaker 5 But I'll be honest,

Speaker 5 I am achievement hunting in this fucking PowerWatch simulator game pretty hard right now. So

Speaker 6 much fun. Okay, I'm going to call this number.

Speaker 2 Let's see. What happened?

Speaker 3 See where this is. You found the number.

Speaker 6 Oh, this one's to New York.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 6 It'd be so funny if it was the same dude.

Speaker 2 Reach is not available. Goodbye.

Speaker 2 Rockstar East.

Speaker 6 The person you are trying to reach is not available. Goodbye.
It just hangs up.

Speaker 11 Awesome.

Speaker 2 Wow.

Speaker 2 They have an updated

Speaker 7 phone number.

Speaker 6 Yeah, they locked that down. I guess we just, we'll never know when GTA 6 comes out.
But I'm glad that we could get to the bottom of this murder mystery thing.

Speaker 9 We didn't get to the bottom of anything.

Speaker 5 We may never solve the murder of who killed our grandmother, but at least we know that we can find vampire hidden objects and discover new animals.

Speaker 6 It's a new segment called Andrew Gets to the Bottom of It.

Speaker 9 Getting to the bottom of it is a great idea.

Speaker 7 Got to the bottom of it. And it could just be about anything.
Could be about anything.

Speaker 5 He's like the dude on local news who's like, what's really going on at the massage parlor?

Speaker 2 I find out.

Speaker 6 I haven't gotten to the bottom of it yet, but I was wondering for the first time yesterday. Never had this thought.
Was Mama Mia a person?

Speaker 6 Is there a Mama Mia?

Speaker 6 Is it Mama Mia? Or is it just like a phrase, Mama Mia?

Speaker 7 Haven't got to the bottom of it yet.

Speaker 6 To be continued, much like Murder Mystery Hotel.

Speaker 9 Here we go. Do some research.
I'll loop back on that.

Speaker 6 Oh, God. So I don't know the origin of Mamma Mia.
Could be a Mamma Mia. Is it an ABBA thing? Because they say Mamma Mia quite a bit, but maybe that's the phrase.

Speaker 3 That is the phrase, yeah.

Speaker 9 It originated in Sweden instead of Italy.

Speaker 3 The classic Swedish phrase.

Speaker 2 Here we go again.

Speaker 2 I want...

Speaker 3 This was the thing that I remember growing up that I, this is, I want something similar with Andrew. This is the turco files on our

Speaker 2 that's what I'm talking about on our local on our local news when I was growing up, KUSI.

Speaker 3 And he would, uh, he would tell you that something was wrong out there. He's been doing it for a long time.
So here's a uh, here's a more recent photo.

Speaker 3 Uh, he would tell you, it ain't right, and then he would like,

Speaker 2 yeah.

Speaker 3 And so, to me, this is what Andrew is getting back at: is that we're doing a turco files thing.

Speaker 9 He looks like jank Dr.

Speaker 7 Phil.

Speaker 2 He does.

Speaker 9 It looks like as time has progressed, his moustache would get better at scrubbing.

Speaker 2 Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 5 What was the famous dude from Houston, Marvin Zindler?

Speaker 2 Does that ring a bell?

Speaker 6 I have no idea.

Speaker 5 Yeah, he was

Speaker 9 this guy.

Speaker 3 Slime in the ice machine guy.

Speaker 5 The slime in the ice machine guy. He's the same dude.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 9 He's Zindler?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 3 Marvin Zindler's. Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.

Speaker 2 Like, look at this dude.

Speaker 3 Here's Marvin Zindler's rattin' roach report.

Speaker 9 Do you think Zindler ever met Zimmer?

Speaker 2 Whoa.

Speaker 2 I would assume so.

Speaker 11 Worlds are colliding.

Speaker 6 He looks like Baby Billy's brother, or that they'd like

Speaker 2 to get together. Yeah,

Speaker 3 this guy's doing Bible bonkers for sure.

Speaker 5 Uncle Baby Billy. He looks like the guy they based Baby Billy on, maybe even.

Speaker 2 Uncle Baby Billy.

Speaker 9 His hair looks so flammable.

Speaker 2 It does look very flammable.

Speaker 9 He looks like he'd go up like you wouldn't believe.

Speaker 6 Just imagining Marvin Sindler's hair on fire while Turco yells it ain't right.

Speaker 3 This is great. We got to get Andrew into this sort of like local news sphere.

Speaker 11 That's it. That's it.

Speaker 3 Thank you so much, Cod.

Speaker 2 That's so good. That's awesome.
Nick, that's awesome.

Speaker 2 So incredible.

Speaker 3 Nick has Photoshopped Andrew's face onto the Turco files.

Speaker 5 I think that's our thumbnail right there.

Speaker 5 Sorry, sorry, bedpan.

Speaker 2 He just got replaced.

Speaker 3 Wow, man.

Speaker 6 This is really, this is a, this is incredible we're calling phone numbers we're talking old tv this is a classic it is fun the old tv i watched recently a thing of local news where they had frank né the mayor of nanaimo at the time arguing with a cable provider because they just approved phone-in shopping networks and he was worried it would tank the economy and it was so funny watching these two people go back and forth about the impact that phone-in shopping would have on the local economy not factoring in the internet as a possibility at all it was great

Speaker 6 20 minutes of them arguing that cable providers should have to buy like a license essentially like a license to sell yes that's incredible i couldn't imagine buying anything via phone yeah what what is still on sale via phone

Speaker 7 it's like all infomercial stuff right yeah i mean qvc is still going isn't it yeah it is have any of us ever bought anything over the phone?

Speaker 6 I certainly haven't.

Speaker 9 Oh, I did.

Speaker 2 What did you buy?

Speaker 9 I bought a

Speaker 9 set of pens. I think they were called

Speaker 9 Panali pens, right? And one of the things on the video, on the advert, was someone stabbing their fountain pen through like a tin can and then immediately being able to write.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 I got the pen and I stabbed it through a tin can and it broke immediately.

Speaker 2 I think I spent like 30 quid on this freaking fountain pen. Oh, I used to see the banali pen!

Speaker 9 I don't think I ever used it.

Speaker 2 How old were you?

Speaker 9 Oh, maybe 12 or something?

Speaker 2 Oh, that's awesome. And you have to call somebody and buy a screen.
12? You called it?

Speaker 2 You called it in?

Speaker 9 I think I asked to borrow my

Speaker 9 parent credit card and then...

Speaker 6 Oh, you'd live again?

Speaker 2 You're sharing a screen. Can I ask, is this it?

Speaker 6 Is this it? It has to be.

Speaker 2 That's it.

Speaker 2 This is it.

Speaker 2 And that doesn't work for shit.

Speaker 9 Wow, in 2000, I was 12. That doesn't work for shit, by the way.

Speaker 3 Let's go back and watch that one more time. Okay.

Speaker 2 Why would you try that with an ordinary pen?

Speaker 4 Why would you do it?

Speaker 3 Don't try this with an ordinary pen. You shouldn't try it with a pinale either.
It's crazy.

Speaker 9 Later, it would show someone writing upside down, like on the ceiling and all this other shit. Oh, they throw it in a dartboard or something.

Speaker 3 Let's do it again.

Speaker 2 Virtually indestructible.

Speaker 3 This is a thing you wanted when you were 12?

Speaker 6 I don't understand why it's impressive that they're writing on the ceiling.

Speaker 5 I mean, they, it was marketed to 12-year-olds. This commercial is from Cartoon Network.

Speaker 9 I assume that's where I saw it.

Speaker 5 I can't imagine what a 12-year-old would want with this pen either.

Speaker 11 Like, they clearly.

Speaker 2 You can write something.

Speaker 3 Listen, it can write on anything. Wood, plastic, glass, upside down.

Speaker 2 Unless you stab it with a can, in which case it will not write on anything.

Speaker 4 It couldn't write on shit.

Speaker 2 Well, not if you broke it.

Speaker 12 Gavin. Go back.
Go to

Speaker 12 the end of the edge.

Speaker 5 Why didn't this come up during Does It Do? We could have done a segment where we revisited Gavin's childhood.

Speaker 11 Oh, Andrew, you got a cool.

Speaker 9 Andrew, plus four.

Speaker 2 Let me call it. There you go.
There you go.

Speaker 9 You want a plus four four and then take off the zero?

Speaker 6 I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I'm just writing the number on the screen.

Speaker 5 Okay. Plus four, four.

Speaker 2 Subtract the first zero number on the screen. Okay.

Speaker 3 It's going to be the same guy we already talked to. And he's going to go, how are you? What did you do?

Speaker 7 How did you call the zero?

Speaker 6 The number I reached is not for incoming service. Please check the number and call it.
Okay, Gavin. You mean, tell me what you want me to do.

Speaker 9 What am I doing?

Speaker 2 Plus four, four.

Speaker 6 So just four, four, or do I have to do a plus sign?

Speaker 2 How do I plus?

Speaker 9 Hold down down zero.

Speaker 2 Okay, there we go. Okay, got it.
Got it. Okay.

Speaker 9 And take off the zero and then start with the eight and do the rest of the number.

Speaker 6 Okay. Eight, seven, oh.

Speaker 6 Okay, I got you. I got you now.
Two, two.

Speaker 6 Spacing on that last set a lot. Okay, here we go.

Speaker 9 Why did they advertise this to children? Yeah, it worked as well.

Speaker 6 It's a checkbook pen is what they're

Speaker 6 my bonus pen

Speaker 9 some kind of deal where at the end they're like

Speaker 6 but there's no

Speaker 6 there's no ring.

Speaker 6 I've never experienced this. I don't think it's actually calling.

Speaker 4 Allow 28 days for the webinar.

Speaker 4 I must have been so excited.

Speaker 3 For a month you were going, maybe it came early, maybe it came early.

Speaker 2 And it didn't.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 then you broke it.

Speaker 9 And then you broke it. Then it totally bent the front.

Speaker 5 Telling your friends you can't play today. You got to get home and check the mail.

Speaker 5 i can't hang out after school today guys i got to check the mailbox i got an important package incredible

Speaker 3 i'm so glad we found that that's that's incredible did you guys ever order something no

Speaker 5 uh i mean i i ordered it i ordered i ordered stuff through the mail a lot you know t-shirts and music and shit you know from like sst catalogs and state stuff but

Speaker 5 i can't remember i mean i'm old as dirt i must have I just can't remember ever. Like, other than like ordering flowers or something, you know, over the phone.

Speaker 2 I don't know.

Speaker 9 Playa.

Speaker 6 I don't even know

Speaker 6 if they do number-based ordering now.

Speaker 6 Like, I watched one of these recently. I watched, I was up late, like, maybe a week ago.
And I saw that Larry King was doing a special about oversized prostates and men.

Speaker 6 And it was just an infomercial for a pill. That was an hour long, and I thought it was hilarious that they were still running deceased Larry King promos about how great these prostate pills are.

Speaker 6 And I don't think they had a number call for ordering. Although I wasn't really watching it, I was trying to fall asleep.

Speaker 9 If you're not on our Patreon, you may not have seen, but the key, the Larry King's keys are up on the wall of our office now.

Speaker 3 Yeah, that was a really good move. A master stroke from you, Gavin.
That was fantastic.

Speaker 6 I do have some bad news where we missed out on the Joan Rivers key.

Speaker 7 We got outbid.

Speaker 2 We lost. Oh, so I have to go back.

Speaker 5 You can't win them all.

Speaker 6 You can't win them all, but we got the Larry King keys.

Speaker 3 And honestly, any of the ones that we lose, you don't even want those. Those aren't very good keys.

Speaker 3 Like the ones that we get, those are like the real keys. If, if, for whatever reason, somebody else gets like these other keys, those keys actually suck.

Speaker 9 How much did Joan Rivers key go for?

Speaker 6 I think it went for $850.

Speaker 2 That's steep.

Speaker 9 Have you talked in content about what else else was in that estate sale?

Speaker 6 Yeah, we talked about it.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 2 Oh, no.

Speaker 6 I don't think we did.

Speaker 12 I thought you were.

Speaker 2 Sorry.

Speaker 6 So they removed that.

Speaker 12 Oh, they pulled that.

Speaker 6 So when I was looking, when they brought up that there is a Joan Rivers estate sale, I was searching, combing through, looking for keys as one does.

Speaker 6 And in the midst of my search, I was shocked to discover that they were selling an urn of Joan Rivers' dog, or the remains, and it came with the urn.

Speaker 2 Can you imagine?

Speaker 6 And she's like, Who would buy this? Why are they selling this? She was like a really big pet lady. Like, that dog meant so much to her.

Speaker 9 Can you imagine that above your fireplace and people be like, oh, who's that? And you'd be like, it's Joan Rivers' dog.

Speaker 2 Yeah, like,

Speaker 10 who would do that?

Speaker 6 So I was very fascinated by it. I then backed out and I realized that wasn't the only dog urn with remains they were selling.

Speaker 6 There was a second set that was like her most prized dog, but it came with like a Time magazine cover with her and the dog on it and like a collar and like all this other dog stuff.

Speaker 6 There was also just a random x-ray shot of one of her dogs was another listing in.

Speaker 4 So after the auction,

Speaker 2 I went back and I was like, who bought this?

Speaker 6 And for like how much? There's no way anyone bought this.

Speaker 6 And they had completely removed the listing that was just the urn itself and then the second one that had an urn they removed the urn from the thing so it was just all of the like memorabilia of the dog essentially probably broke some laws doing that they didn't realize no urns were sold but i it was the craziest thing i think i've seen in any auction an item i would never even consider would ever be possible for sale and we at no point considered buying it absolutely not it was i shared it it with like

Speaker 9 you posted the listing to be like, oh my God, this is insane. And I just replied, I'm out.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 6 You replied, I'm out.

Speaker 7 And I went, we were never in.

Speaker 11 This is not, this is horrific.

Speaker 5 And once I found out everybody else was out, then I was also out

Speaker 5 and thought, yeah, that is a bad idea. We wouldn't want that.
Of course not. Ridiculous.
Not, not, no, thank you, not regulation. That's not who, that's not who we are.

Speaker 9 Who do you think is the most scattered person?

Speaker 2 Oh.

Speaker 6 Hunter S. Thompson gets launched into space.

Speaker 6 He has to be up there, right? Wouldn't he cover a lot of ground being in space?

Speaker 3 Who was that? I'm sorry.

Speaker 6 Hunter S. Thompson.

Speaker 3 He got shot into space.

Speaker 11 Is that right?

Speaker 5 I think he did, yeah.

Speaker 9 Is he all in the same bag, though? Like, he's not all spread apart.

Speaker 6 I mean, I feel like the bag integrity comes into question after.

Speaker 3 Didn't they do that with Scotty?

Speaker 2 I think they did. Oh, yeah, they did.

Speaker 3 Didn't they take his ashes up to space?

Speaker 9 Not actually Scottish.

Speaker 2 Oh.

Speaker 6 What is he?

Speaker 9 He might have been. I don't know.

Speaker 2 Okay, you're just kind of saying you're just kind of saying shit.

Speaker 3 You're just kind of hanging out saying shit.

Speaker 2 Could be a fun fact starring Gavin.

Speaker 2 Could it be a fun fact?

Speaker 9 I'm going to start a show called Not Anywhere Near the Bottom of This.

Speaker 3 Starting at the top.

Speaker 6 I feel like, unless he specifically requested that, I could see him being upset that he's in space. He spent so much time there, fictionally.

Speaker 9 What, you think it's like being sent to work?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Like, I bet you, Jeff, you wouldn't want your ashes spreading blood gulch.

Speaker 7 Like, it

Speaker 2 he's from Vancouver.

Speaker 2 Really? He's from Vancouver.

Speaker 2 Oh, that's fat.

Speaker 5 Yeah, throw me out by the weird tree, please.

Speaker 2 Figs spread in blood.

Speaker 9 Just kicked into the teleport.

Speaker 5 No, I want my ashes spread in deputy where they belong.

Speaker 9 Ooh. Of course.
On the site of the billboard.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I want to get licked up by the deputy dog.

Speaker 3 Then you're getting scattered. That's awesome.

Speaker 6 I have a question about how you guys view movies.

Speaker 5 I use my eyes.

Speaker 6 Well, yeah, that's again. Sometimes I mean,

Speaker 6 sometimes TV, phones, all sorts of things. I'm curious about when you watch a movie,

Speaker 6 does the world exist outside of the frame that is being presented?

Speaker 2 Well, like the crew?

Speaker 6 It's going to be very difficult for me to articulate this.

Speaker 6 So when I watch a movie,

Speaker 6 nothing exists to those characters outside of what's currently in frame. Oh.

Speaker 9 What, like, unless specified?

Speaker 6 Unless specified, unless shown or like discussed. Nothing, like everything, all the information is within the frame itself.

Speaker 6 There's no, just because it is in said place does not mean other things are in it.

Speaker 6 Like they could be in New York, but unless they show a pizza hut or say there's a pizza hut, I'm not assuming there's a pizza hut. in this universe.

Speaker 5 We've talked about this something similar in the past.

Speaker 5 And I, yeah, I view it as taking taking place in my real world so pizza hut exists because pizza hut exists to me like anything that's happening on a screen i just feel like i'm watching uh a well-edited reality show about some people in new york city or wherever it takes place so

Speaker 2 if

Speaker 6 so in a sense everything in the world exists to those characters outside of the crew like they have no awareness of the crew but anything else that exists

Speaker 6 is in it.

Speaker 9 Well, I think unless I'm told that something doesn't exist, I assume it exists in that time period.

Speaker 6 If I witnessed a movie being filmed,

Speaker 6 am I technically in the movie, even though I'm not in the scene?

Speaker 2 No. No.

Speaker 3 I'm going to say yes.

Speaker 2 Wait.

Speaker 9 So that means like every time you see someone in a movie,

Speaker 9 you think there's like a medic stood nearby no

Speaker 6 no i'm saying what the example i'm stating none of the crew exist in this universe is a perspective of this

Speaker 6 so but i'm just but but you might why do you exist if the crew doesn't right because well let's if you're saying that everything is based in real in your reality

Speaker 6 then you are in your reality. You're part of the reality.
So if you are observing the filming of it, I think that technically means that you're in the movie based on that.

Speaker 5 So are you saying you're in Last of the Season 2 because they filmed it in the Naimo?

Speaker 2 No, I didn't witness that. Oh.

Speaker 3 What have you witnessed? Paparazzi.

Speaker 3 What movies are you in, Andrew?

Speaker 6 I'm in paparazzi, depending on your perspective of it. You pull a paparazzi?

Speaker 9 If the piss woman was in the movie, would you technically be in that movie because you witnessed it?

Speaker 6 Yeah, if it was about, if it was a true inspired based on a true story.

Speaker 5 What if it's a piss fetish video? Does that mean you're in a piss fetish video? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 7 Yeah, there we go, Eric.

Speaker 2 So you're in that universe.

Speaker 6 I guess I'm in that universe. I was trying to decide if I or figure out if I'm technically in any universes.
I would say no because of how I view movies.

Speaker 3 This looks like shit, buddy.

Speaker 6 I saw it in theaters. It's not good.

Speaker 2 Which ball butt is that?

Speaker 2 Daniel.

Speaker 3 So you saw this. You saw this being filmed?

Speaker 6 Yeah, I was in Victoria at the time and I was, there was a pier nearby, and it was like, whoa, there's a whole film crew thing down there, and that's wild. So I just watched it the entire evening.

Speaker 9 That picture is incredible.

Speaker 7 Like

Speaker 9 if this was like the internet in the 90s and it was loading from the top down, it would be Alec Baldwin until like just below his eyes and then it all goes off.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 6 What's so funny about it is it's Daniel Balden, Baldwin next to a guy that looks like Stephen Baldwin's.

Speaker 5 The guy looks so much like Stephen Baldwin, it freaks me out.

Speaker 6 They look very similar.

Speaker 6 I learned about this because I was like, oh, what's the film set? And then I saw in the paper the next day that Dennis Farina was filming a movie at the pier.

Speaker 6 And based on my research, this is the only film that fits that Dennis Farina filmed in Victoria.

Speaker 6 So I'd be in Paparoxy.

Speaker 6 So any scene in the pier, which I vaguely remember being a plot point of the movie, I think one of the people, I think one of the photographers lives in a houseboat or lives in a boat.

Speaker 6 I guess it's not a houseboat. If you live in a boat, does it become a houseboat?

Speaker 2 Yes. It can be.

Speaker 6 Yeah. Okay.
Well, then, houseboats.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 6 I was just curious. It's the only thing, like, there's never been.

Speaker 9 Well, I see what you mean. Like, if it was a ringy with a sleeping bag, I wouldn't call it a houseboat.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 6 That's definitely not a houseboat.

Speaker 6 I was just curious how you viewed movies in that way.

Speaker 9 I don't really even know what you mean.

Speaker 3 Yeah, me neither, but I'm on your side.

Speaker 6 Yeah, me too. As long as you're on my side.

Speaker 3 Yeah, absolutely. Me and Nick are with you, bud.
We got your back.

Speaker 6 I feel like there's two ways to view a movie, and either that nothing exists outside of what has been said or is on screen, or everything exists outside of the crew.

Speaker 6 So in an either or scenario,

Speaker 3 those are the classic ways to watch a movie.

Speaker 6 Two ways.

Speaker 9 I just don't think anyone making a movie thinks about either of those two options.

Speaker 6 I don't know what other options they would think think about.

Speaker 3 Yeah, but I mean, Andrew thinks about it, and he was in paparazzi, so they're just making the story.

Speaker 9 I don't think they're thinking about the crew or who's watching.

Speaker 7 Well, let me be clear.

Speaker 6 I don't think I'm in paparazzi because, in the scenario in which I'm in paparazzi, means that the people that worked on it but weren't in it aren't involved in it.

Speaker 2 What are you thinking? Which almost broke it.

Speaker 5 Could we get you into the IMDb credits as viewed pier scene filming?

Speaker 6 Uncredited?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 6 i think technically you could get credited in any film uncredited well any film that was in your lifetime that was filmed i think just any film in general because you're uncredited what are the rules on uncredited like i watched the jiminy blick movie recently and and willem defoe's in that but he's uncredited in it yeah but he's you see it's in the sentence you just said he was in it if he wasn't credited right was he yeah but yeah how in it was he Was he watching it being filmed from across the pier?

Speaker 3 Or

Speaker 6 okay, well, to be also to be fair, you would have to know Willem Dafoe to know Willem Dafoe is in that movie. It's like a side shot from the back, he's barely in it.

Speaker 9 Can we, Nick, can we put in the you know, in the credits? Sometimes we have all the

Speaker 9 supporters on Patreon's names. Can we put Willem Dafoe uncredited?

Speaker 2 Please, that'd be great.

Speaker 6 That'd be a great addition.

Speaker 7 Thanks, Nick.

Speaker 2 You got it.

Speaker 6 That was, and that's that's my movie corner.

Speaker 2 It's Andrew's other second, Andrew's movie corner.

Speaker 3 Andrew gets to the bottom of it.

Speaker 2 Andrew's movie corner.

Speaker 3 We got it all on this one.

Speaker 7 Yeah, I feel like we got to the bottom of that.

Speaker 9 I feel like in this episode, and Andrew got to the bottom of it, I got blindfolded and spun around. I don't know what's happened to me.

Speaker 6 You don't understand? And after the explanation of the two ways to view a movie in my eyes, you still don't get it?

Speaker 9 I get it even less.

Speaker 2 If you were going to explain it one more time.

Speaker 3 If you were just going to succinctly wrap it up one more time.

Speaker 6 Succinctly wrap it up. One more time.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 6 Either nothing exists but what is seen or mentioned, or everything exists but the people that are making the film.

Speaker 6 That's the best way you've described it yet.

Speaker 2 Thank you.

Speaker 6 I feel like it was similar to Run Two, but I understand.

Speaker 6 The comments will be on my side on this one. I think everyone's on my side on this one.
You're probably right.

Speaker 9 You make a lot of sense to a lot of people.

Speaker 6 Anyway, I guess I'm not in paparazzi.

Speaker 9 I don't think so.

Speaker 6 I think Meg will be on my side on this side.

Speaker 2 Uncredited.

Speaker 6 Uncredited. Willem Defoe.

Speaker 6 I wonder who has the most uncredited appearances.

Speaker 9 I like who's the least credited, but the most the least credited, most credited.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 9 Can I talk about something I saw in Detroit? I went with Jeff.

Speaker 6 Yeah, we need to talk about you went to Detroit with Jeff.

Speaker 5 I think that's probably a next episode conversation at this point.

Speaker 7 We're an hour in.

Speaker 2 this. This is a tiny thing.
This is a little preview.

Speaker 6 A little preview of the Detroit experience.

Speaker 9 Do you want to see the scariest thing I saw in Detroit?

Speaker 2 Yes.

Speaker 5 Oh, no.

Speaker 9 I was just watching Jeff drink this drink.

Speaker 2 Okay, so it's an orange drink.

Speaker 6 No caffeine, no drink.

Speaker 9 Oh, my God. It had 96% of a daily allowance of sugar.

Speaker 2 Wow.

Speaker 3 Was it good, Jeff?

Speaker 6 Jeff, was it good?

Speaker 5 All it was was an orange faygo I got with dinner.

Speaker 3 Oh, it it was a faygo. It was a figo.

Speaker 5 Yeah, win in Detroit, you know, drink like a local. They drink burners and faygo.

Speaker 9 Yeah, I thought that it was bragging about some of the features of this drink. Like, no caffeine, very low sodium.
Forget the fact that it has almost 50 grams of sugar in it.

Speaker 5 Well, yeah, you got an over-index on the sugar to make up for the low sodium in the caffeine.

Speaker 9 That's fair.

Speaker 9 My eyes always popped out.

Speaker 6 You just helped me get to the bottom of this, Gavin.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 6 I never thought about what the percentages mean on these things. It's daily value.

Speaker 3 What did you say?

Speaker 2 Wait, okay. It says sent.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I just never really read it.

Speaker 3 Oh, so you just, so you would just see things and it was numbers.

Speaker 6 Yeah, because I'm typically, if I'm looking at a bottle, I'm looking for either a phone number or like where it was made.

Speaker 3 I gotta call them and see what the sequel to this soda is.

Speaker 3 What's next for this soda?

Speaker 2 Can you help me out?

Speaker 9 Do the people that made the soda exist in the world you're drinking it?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 3 Andrew, are you in in this soda?

Speaker 6 No.

Speaker 6 Okay. Definitely not.
I didn't even witness it be bottled.

Speaker 5 I'd also like to point out, I don't drink sugar sodas ever. I've been a Diet Soda fan my entire life.
I just, you know, every once in a while, you got to cut loose when you're in a special place.

Speaker 9 Oh, yeah. We're traveling.

Speaker 5 So we were at a, was that a dinner?

Speaker 9 No, that was a

Speaker 2 blue.

Speaker 9 The sandwich

Speaker 2 where we had.

Speaker 5 It was in the museum.

Speaker 2 Oh,

Speaker 5 I had limited options. I tried to order a Diet Coke and was told Diet Coke didn't exist in the 1940s, and this is a period accurate diner.
And so I didn't have much choice.

Speaker 5 So I ordered an orange fago because it was nothing else. Wait, what?

Speaker 2 Is this real? Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 3 They told you it didn't exist in the 1940s and this is a period accurate diner.

Speaker 9 You're a period accurate diner.

Speaker 5 Yeah, they said like that, yeah, there was no Diet Coke in the 1940s. You can only order what's on the list.
And it was like that or cheer wine. And so I got

Speaker 5 the orange fayo.

Speaker 6 I got some some bad news from them. I don't think the best before of April 2026 would have been a best before in 1940.

Speaker 3 No, in 1940, it would have been expired by a number of years. That is crazy.

Speaker 5 I can't believe. Dude, there's, listen, that, there's a couple of other stories related to that lunch that I think are more interesting than the Faygo sugar count.

Speaker 5 We'll get to it in the next episode, considering that a little preview. We watched.

Speaker 5 We saw a lot of employee interactions. I'll say that.

Speaker 2 What the fuck?

Speaker 2 It was bizarre.

Speaker 9 Andrew, what did you think the percentage was of?

Speaker 6 I guess I didn't really ever think about it, or maybe it was like.

Speaker 5 Do you think it was the percentage of the soda?

Speaker 6 Yeah, like it could be the percentage of the soda.

Speaker 5 Like it's 18% of the liquid is sugar.

Speaker 6 Or like when you order boba, you have to ask, like, it's like 70% sugar if you want or 20% sugar or whatever.

Speaker 9 You think someone requested 48 grams of sugar?

Speaker 2 Maybe, I guess.

Speaker 6 Listen, I did know it was not a remember the name scenario where it was going to reach 100% and distributed across these things. I just looked at it and went number percentage thing.
I don't know.

Speaker 2 But it is interesting.

Speaker 6 It changes my view on it because I would drink that and you're focusing on the fact that that's what 96% of your sugar allowance?

Speaker 9 What it's basically saying is for the rest of the day, you can only have 4%. As a recommended route, two more grams.

Speaker 6 Yeah, but I'm looking at it saying, I got 98% of my sodium cap still.

Speaker 9 And potassium.

Speaker 6 I would hate to live in a world in which I have a dietary cap space every day.

Speaker 2 Like a hard cap.

Speaker 9 Well, like you just wouldn't be able to consume?

Speaker 7 Yeah, like

Speaker 6 you lose the right to consume. Like there are no overages, like a strict like NHL style salary cap, but based on these allotments.

Speaker 9 I mean, that would probably be a really healthy way to live.

Speaker 9 You would then just be on water.

Speaker 5 Is there like a second apron you can go into?

Speaker 2 Maybe?

Speaker 7 There has to be a way to like trade.

Speaker 10 previously eaten meals to free up salary cap.

Speaker 11 Yeah, I think that's called throwing up.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I'd start gambling on if I was going to use all my cap in one day and just try to get more cap for it and for like the future, you know?

Speaker 5 The NBA is falling apart right now while we're having this conversation. It is pretty exciting.
Pretty insane.

Speaker 5 If you're not a sports fan, a player named Terry Rozier and then the coach of the Portland Trailblacers, Chauncey Phillips, have been arrested for illegal sports betting.

Speaker 3 Arrested by the FBI. By the FBI.

Speaker 2 Sorry. Arrested.
By the FBI.

Speaker 2 And an FBI scene.

Speaker 5 And the FBI announced that there will be more arrests. Yep.

Speaker 6 I think Terry Rozier would be very honored that you refer to the NBA as falling apart with his arrest.

Speaker 5 I mean, it's not him specifically. It's the shake-up of

Speaker 5 the ramifications.

Speaker 6 I just think Scary Terry would be pumped to hear that.

Speaker 2 I agree. I agree.

Speaker 5 He, hey, listen, ex-Boston Celtic loved him.

Speaker 2 Loved him when he was Scary Terry for us.

Speaker 5 Hasn't panned out. His NBA career hasn't really panned out outside of Boston.

Speaker 2 No.

Speaker 5 Since then, unfortunately.

Speaker 6 I feel like he can't can't be Scary Terry anywhere else. That was very specific to that playoff series.
It is true.

Speaker 6 I'm sure he took the nickname elsewhere, but I used to have the shirt that was like him and the screen mask.

Speaker 5 The screen mask?

Speaker 6 Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 6 What a disappointment.

Speaker 9 I'm going to buy this.

Speaker 5 What are you going to buy, Fega?

Speaker 7 Oh, Gavin found the pen.

Speaker 11 No, it's the pen.

Speaker 3 He found the pen again.

Speaker 2 Can we do a supplemental?

Speaker 2 Yeah, you stabbed it.

Speaker 4 Do it, do it. Buy this.

Speaker 7 Let's do it.

Speaker 3 And then let's snap it through a can. This is great.
This is a good place to wrap up on, too. Let's do it.

Speaker 6 We'll wrap up the episode on Gavin. We'll do a test of all the things they advertised it can do to see if it actually

Speaker 6 writes.

Speaker 2 Check, I'm going to write on upside down.

Speaker 3 I'm going to write on upside down. All right, Jeff, take us out.

Speaker 5 I'm going to take us out much like I did last week when I ended with an idea.

Speaker 5 Dropped the bomb of carguing. I think the whole internet was a buzz.
Everybody's excited about the idea of cargoing going forward. They said, yes, more cargoing.
We want it. Brilliant idea.

Speaker 5 Jeff's so clever.

Speaker 5 everybody loves jeff is he getting taller is he getting younger is he getting better looking his ideas keep improving is he the funniest he's ever been carguing here's the new one this isn't mine though this came from emily she asked me uh when are you guys gonna fill those sandbags and i said oh i don't know we'll get around to it at some point and she said well how are you gonna do it and i said with sand and she said no but like are you gonna film it And I was like, why would we film that?

Speaker 5 And she goes, you're going to sand the bags and not film it. And I go, what does sand the bags mean? And she said, that's for you to figure out.
And I thought, oh, shit, I guess that is for us to do.

Speaker 9 What if it's all listener sand?

Speaker 2 What if it's regular

Speaker 9 listna sand?

Speaker 5 You know what would be fun. And I'm not saying we should do this,

Speaker 5 but it would be fun to break into my old yard and fill it with sand from my old yard with like three of the orange.

Speaker 2 We're not doing that.

Speaker 3 We're not breaking into your old yard. Oh my god.

Speaker 9 We should either do that or put Joan Riffis' dog in it.

Speaker 5 All right, we'll see you next week. Bye-bye.

Speaker 2 Bye.
