Speaker 1:

Like I said, we don't have an unlimited amount of time. We do have some, but it's not unlimited. So we took a week off for the holiday. It's been crazy. You know, my schedule's been a little more nuts.

Speaker 1:

Lately I haven't been as active on stream as on podcast as I used to be, and that's just because there's a lot going on with the holidays, with home, with everything. It's hard to keep it all together. It is very, very hard and I'm doing my best. I, I promise you guys, I'm doing my best here because you guys love me. I mean, I we already said it right, we already yeah, uh, not like, not like that you don't, but uh, there, there, there is some love here between us.

Speaker 1:

I I don't even know where I'm going with this sense Like this is not pre-planned. You know this podcast by by this time. You know we're not pre-planned. We have a couple of things, but that's, that's like very little, very little. And what I wanted to go over today, um, is there is not a lot of dbd news this past couple of weeks almost zero news. Uh, I, I can't, I can't even think of anything. We got that winter fucking thing going on. We got some shitty. We got some shitty, uh, fucking. I'm sorry my whatsapp is going off on my computer. How rude is this guy that he can what?

Speaker 2:

in the hell is this crap?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that, yeah, that's about right. That's, hang on. Let me see mute chat for eight hours. There we go. That's better. I just muted the chat, okay. So anyway, guys, let's, let's talk about it. Let's talk about it.

Speaker 1:

No news on the DBD front, because the game is just not doing anything. Like that's. Part of my problem with Dead by Daylight right now is there is almost nothing happening other than the events that you notice. They've started to roll these events out more and there are some outfits. You know they they had. Previously I can't remember and correct me if I'm wrong they had said that they were going to hire more people to make graphics and shit so they could have more fucking outfits to make money. Right, that's, that's the. The thing. I don't even have a sound. Do I have a sound this week on camping them softly? We talk about how they don't really do much of anything.

Speaker 1:

Behavior to me, compared to the other online games that I've been playing, just is is not doing much, and so I haven't been playing dead by daylight as much as I used to, because there's nothing there. There's the same old shit and it's gotten a little bit better, I think. Uh, well, no, why am I even saying that it hasn't even got better. Yes, hasn't even gotten better, remember, I don't have that. So it's, it's the same thing. It's the same thing. So I've been playing other games and I've streamed a couple of other games when I have streamed, I just bought marvel rival. Well, no, I didn't buy that because that one's free to play, but I did buy the early access to path of exile 2, which is really fun if you're, if you are a dead by daylight, if you're a dead or not a dead by daylight, if you're a diablo person. Path of exile 2, to me, is very good. It's very polished, it's very fun.

Speaker 1:

I'm nowhere near you know max level, so I can't tell you what end game is like. That's what everybody wants. What is the end game like? What is the grinding like? Like, are we grinding at the club? You know grinding. I don't know what that's like yet, but so far, at least for me, I've been having a good time Also with Marvel Rivals. I've also been having fun. That's a game that's kind of like Overwatch, like one of those hero shooters Having fun with that. There's a lot of different characters, a lot of different abilities. You always feel kind of cool whenever you get some of those big hits. So that's been the majority of my gameplay.

Speaker 1:

I did just rebuy because I had it on PlayStation but I re-bought it on PC was the entire Hitman franchise because it was on sale for, like, I think, 50 bucks, but you get every single expansion they've ever had. I was a big Hitman fan and I did stream that a couple of times and that was fun because we had a challenge to kill every single person in the level, like every single, because you're supposed to be, you're supposed to be silent, right, and you're supposed to not attract but just kill everybody. Just see if it can be done. So you know that may, that may become a thing again, I don't know, um, but just looking for something to do, because on dead by daylight there's not, there's not a lot.

Speaker 1:

And so what I've been doing in my off time, you know, I've been working on some other content, some songs, and, by the way, I think I might be one of the best songwriters on, uh, you know, on AI songwriting. I've got some shit that will fucking that. That blows everything away in terms of my, my ability to make AI songs. It's it's fucking. It's it's fucking disgusting what I can do. Let me, let me see if I can find one. I just, I just want to find one, and this is a good time for me to test out the volume on my uh, on my thing here. So so, let me, let me see what I can do. I gotta uh, let me. Is this one? Is this one, brothers, and sisters, listen up.

Speaker 2:

The toxic teachers here to preach the truth. Yeah, he is here to preach the truth and he's taking no.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, see, this is the shit man yeah see, there, it is, there, it is okay.

Speaker 1:

Anyway, I'm not Okay, anyway, I'm not going to go off on that, but I do want to go off on a dead by daylight topic, and you know me, I do have a song. Remember that toxic fucking news, the song we did a long time ago to introduce our new segments. I actually redid that and I actually put it as a button on my thing so I could. I can pull it up whenever need be. So here it is, there it is. This is like one of those, uh, like choirs. Yeah, oh yeah. See this shit right here.

Speaker 2:

It's the toxic fucking news. See, this is it. See, it's perfect, it's perfect, it's perfect. He says yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

See, it's a toxic fucking news. See, you're going to have that stuck in your head now.

Speaker 2:

I don't know how long the song is. See. Why does this sound good? Is my question Like?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's it, fucking news.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

It's a toxic fucking. Okay, anyway, let's stop there. So there is no real news, but there is a post online that I wanted to. I wanted to go into and I think this post it was on the, on the the steam forums, and it was by. It was by a psychologist and I want to read to you this is actually a. It was on the steam forum and he linked it to a Reddit post from like 2017. Form and he linked it to a Reddit post from like 2017.

Speaker 1:

And I think this is this is really good, because what is a? What does a psychologist know about dead by daylight? Actually, what I want to do, I need to find a really good, uh, ai like voice of a psychologist. So I can, so I can, uh, so I can do this. Let me do text to speech. No, you know what I want to do. I'm going to have to do it as a project. I think this is this longer post, so we may not we may not be able to do the whole thing. Um, I want to. We can't. By the way, we probably shouldn't do Nikki, because I think it would be too much. Let me see. Okay, here we go A middle-aged American male, and it says smooth voice, suitable for audio books.

Speaker 1:

Okay, that's the guy we'll use. It's composed of a single soul inhabiting. No, I don't like that. Let me test somebody else. Here we go. French, high quality. Oh God, bonjour, je suis une voix française. Okay, that's, I can't do it. Let me see if there are other ones. Philip, oh, this Philip says he is a spiritual sage. Let me see, it is fatal to enter any. No, I can't that. This is awful, soothing narrator, crystal clear narration.

Speaker 3:

Brings no, a middle-aged brit named adam stone the people who are crazy enough to think they can change that sounds like earl grey.

Speaker 1:

I need to add that to my favorites are the ones who do, oh god, gross. Why can't I not find like a normal fucking voice?

Speaker 4:

It wasn't easy to wait.

Speaker 2:

I have no idea. I have crossed oceans of time to find you.

Speaker 1:

I like that. That was good there. Hey, hey, no, hi.

Speaker 4:

This voice is just an example.

Speaker 1:

Why is it not in English? I think about forgiveness a lot. The most important part of a project is this. Okay, maybe that one. The strongest emotion a man Okay, let's just do this guy. This guy's name is David and an exhibit is. Yeah, let's do David here. Let's use voice was one I I was just looking on here, it's called pierre and it was called. It said seductive and that sounds terrible. Um, okay, here we go, let me, let me generate this. It's gonna be a say so, basically what?

Speaker 4:

that may be the best take on david david stop, stop it, stop it, stop it.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so, what this post is, let me, let me give you a preface. There's a psychologist who was talking about kind of the psychology of dead by daylight and your mental health and the reason I even bring this up. Some people are like, what the fuck? Like, how does dbd, what does that have to do with your mental health? This week, on camping them softly, we're going to learn what, uh, dbd has to do with your fucking mental health.

Speaker 1:

And, um, the reason, the reason I want to talk about this, is because we do see it a lot, right, you see it in the toxicity on the forums, you see it on, like your Steam user page. You see it everywhere that people fucking lose their shit over this game, like in a constant state of just madness, and it's 90% on the survivor side madness and it's 90 on the survivor side. So, guys, I'm hoping you survivors, that I am helping you out by by going over this with you, by having david, our psychologist, ai voice, help me out with this. So, so, david, let let's uh do it here. Um, how do I, how do I do this? Let's do play until end, all right, and then, uh, he's working on it, they're, they're actually by daylight, david okay, so here we go.

Speaker 1:

Let let's uh go. We'll stop.

Speaker 4:

At times I want to hear what david has to say, and then we'll jump in so dead by daylight is a unique game it stands in the company of other asymmetric games, but it has unique aspects that other games don't, that affect our psychology as we play. I wanted to explain these concepts and have some advice for how to counter them.

Speaker 1:

Okay. So he says Dead by Daylight is unique in the psychology and how it affects you. I don't know that it is, but you and I we're so enmeshed in like Dead by Daylight I'm assuming if you're listening to the podcast you are highly doubt you're listening just for me that Dead by Daylight is kind of our thing, so we see it a lot more. So maybe that is influencing our thinking on how you know much are people freaking out about this game?

Speaker 4:

So okay, so let's go, davey, keep going. Concept one humiliation. Okay, dbd's gameplay is centered on humiliating your adversary okay, it's centered on humiliating your adversary.

Speaker 1:

I don't know that that's actually true it's. It's centered on winning, but not humiliating like that. That's not the thing. It's centered on winning but not humiliating Like that's not the thing. That might be the outcome, but it's not the goal of the game. No, Okay, but David, keep going. Tell us more. This is psychologists too. Has this psychologist played Dead by Daylight, I wonder?

Speaker 4:

Okay, anyway, let's keep going I would argue that every aspect of the gameplay is an act of humiliation, not competition like you see in other games. The reward-based outcomes, combined with asymmetric gameplay, makes dbd uniquely painful to emotionally process both your losses and wins okay, I, I totally disagree with this.

Speaker 1:

I didn't know, I have not read this, this is all new to me, but I cannot disagree with this psychologist more. I don't know where he's coming from. I don't know what the thought process is here yet. There might be something, but so far this is batshit crazy. Might be something, but so far this is like this is batshit crazy. I, I don't know what, uh, what, the, what, the I don't know. I'm kind of at a loss. Let's keep going, we're gonna. We'll see if we, if we get to something here.

Speaker 4:

Okay keep going. Let's look at the various aspects of gameplay. Killer humiliates. Frustrates a survivor's ability to contribute to their team. Social humiliation okay frustrates a survivor's ability to level up and earn points. Reward denial, humiliation reward frustrates a survivor's ability to appear competent in front of their survivor peers. Mild self-esteem humiliation okay.

Speaker 1:

Survivor humiliate okay so he says there's, there's three ways in which a a killer humiliates the survivors. Okay, so let's, let's go over that number one. They socially humiliate them by, uh, keeping them from contributing. They deny their rewards by killing them. Right, they can't do whatever. And then they also make people look stupid. And now I'm going to counter their. What in the hell?

Speaker 2:

is this crap.

Speaker 1:

Survivors make themselves look stupid enough, quite often in killers to a lesser extent. If a killer's just getting their shit beat because they they have no clue what they're doing, yes, that's obviously difficult to handle, but you know, I don't know. I don't know. David, explain the survivor side. So the survivor humiliates also. How does the survivor then humiliate it?

Speaker 4:

frustrates a killer's ability to appear competitive and threatening in the game environment. Social frustrates a killer's ability to level up and earn points. Reward denial humiliation okay. Humiliates the killer in post-game chat, something that, while survivors aren't immune to, but have group social support resources to easily heal from severe self-esteem humiliation okay, so so that's interesting.

Speaker 1:

They're saying that the survivor is in a unique spot, that they can humiliate the killer in the post-game chat in a way that the killer cannot, because the survivor has social support but the killer does not. They're on their own. This is we are psychoanalyzing it because this is a psychologist. We are psychoanalyzing this game and this guy's a fucking lunatic. I swear to god, this guy take away his medical degree, like he does not need to be practicing psychology, because if he does this in dead by daylight, does he do this with other shit? This is wild. This is wild. Well, okay, okay, concept two now, oh god concept two roller coaster of emotional injury if a killer wins but doesn't win right camping, some glitch, lag, etc.

Speaker 4:

They are deprived of their celebration by the survivors okay, I'm gonna stop them there.

Speaker 1:

You're not deprived of the celebration. You celebrate anyway on camping them softly. If you win as a killer, it doesn't matter how you win, because they're gonna cry, no matter what you do you. You cannot win with these people. You gotta give them that hot food. You don't have to, you don't have to. But the thing is, my voice is going. Have you noticed that it sounds like my voice is going? Am I okay? Is this the last podcast we're ever going to do? Is this the end? Is it because it's the end of the year? Is 2024 the year of the death of Camping them Softly? Is Satan finally going to take his rightful place as host of the show we're?

Speaker 2:

going to find out next week, next fucking week on Camping them Softly.

Speaker 1:

It'll literally be 2025,. Last time I checked, checked anyway. Let's keep going over this dumb fucking guy here. That's, that's just. It makes me a little upset at this point. Okay, david the psychologist, so you're deprived of your celebration? No, you're not. You do whatever you want. Um, it says survivor decides whether killers can celebrate. Now, that's true, they try to. They try in in killer mains out there I know you're listening. If you're in Frankfurt, germany, you're probably a killer main. I would assume all Germans probably killer mains, but French and British probably all survivor mains. I mean, let's, let's get one thing straight. I still don't have that. God saved the queen I had. Um, I said it was going to download that, but I don't know if I did.

Speaker 1:

Did I um, hang on, what was it? Italian mafia music? I've still got that. Uh, did I take it? Uh, did I take it? What is this? No, that's yeah, that's good, but that's oh. Travel down the road? No, that's not it. Um, anyway, forget, I said that, forget, I said anything. Okay. So, uh, where were we, the survivors, depriving the, the killer, of the joy of winning?

Speaker 4:

okay, let's okay, keep going, david, david survivor decides whether killers can celebrate another humiliation. Right if a survivor wins but everyone doesn't survive the sacrifice. Survivor is deprived of joining in the celebration the killer can take this opportunity to humiliate them through all of this. Both player sides undergo extreme stress.

Speaker 1:

They don't undergo extreme killers experience okay, okay, hold on, hold on, they don't undergo extreme stress. If you're undergoing extreme stress from dead by daylight number one you need to stop playing the game. I I think that if the game causes you that much pain, why why even do it? Um? Number two if, if a video game is enough to get you that, to that point to where you're extremely stressed, like talk to somebody. You know what I mean. And and there was a point in my life, like there was a point in which I was getting very competitive with Dead by Daylight and it was stressing me the fuck out and I knew it was time to like slow down, slow down, yes.

Speaker 2:

So Gotcha bitch.

Speaker 1:

Okay, that one worked. Okay. Anyway, let's keep going to Killer Stress. Let me rewind here.

Speaker 4:

Killers experience states of stress throughout the game trying to find survivors being evaded by survivors. Losing track of survivors, okay, and protecting hooks from survivor saves killers at no point have any moment of emotional peace or sense of safety from these states?

Speaker 1:

that's. That's the whole point. Is a dead by daylight causes an adrenaline rush? That's that right? There is why people watch scary movies, why they watch action movies. Is you, in a sense, you don't want that emotional peace, right? Some of you get emotional peace, and sometimes I do. You fucking zone out and you're just doing your thing and then that's it, you know, until you get somebody, until you win the match. But the amped up moments where you are, the game is going and you're in. That's the opposite of this. You want that? Okay, let's keep going.

Speaker 4:

The emotional injury always ramps up in post-game end chat and at the gate, where killers are ritualistically humiliated by twerking circling various taunts.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so this guy is so over the top. I don't know if he's just. I need to check the Reddit post to see this was a long time ago. This post is old as shit. It didn't get a whole lot of traction, but it sounds like this guy was trying to get some traction. Okay, this is always. It always ramps up. No, it doesn't always. This guy is just off the chain. Okay, where was I, when were we? We were on killer stress. Okay, now survivor stress, which you know this guy. He's throwing bombs just to get attention. So let's think.

Speaker 4:

Survivor stress. Okay, Survivors experience states of stress too waves of calm. No, they're hiding peacefully working on genes with their peers, being in the terror radius, evading and being on the hook. Successful evasion and successful hides are followed by positive feelings of calm I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Being chased is stressful, dude, I don't know that. Like he says that you experience waves of stress or being in terror, like to me. Survivor, I'm sorry, survivor, mains, I'm sorry, I need your sound because I'm talking about you. I'm sorry you guys, it's not as stressful, it is not as bad to play Survivor as it is to play Killer. I will die on that hill. That you can tune out, you can zone out and do 20 other things while you're playing survive. When you're playing killer, you can't do that. You've got to be on, you've got to be in, you've got to be locked, at least unless you're playing a group with a vast skill difference. But with a group that's of your skill level, you have to be locked in tighter than you do as a survivor and it does create a little bit more intensity. I'm not going to say stress, because stress has a negative connotation.

Speaker 2:

What in the hell is this?

Speaker 1:

crap, yeah, exactly, okay, so let's keep going.

Speaker 4:

Hooked and killed is a very substantial, large loss. Okay, so let's keep going. Hooked and killed is a very substantial, large loss.

Speaker 3:

A hooked survivor has disappointed their team lost a huge amount of point potential and been humiliated by the killer.

Speaker 4:

Watch streamer facial expressions change when they realize they cannot be rescued and are dead after a long match. There is pain in their face.

Speaker 1:

Oh, there is pain in their face. I don't know if I've ever had pain in my face, from dead by day. I mean, somebody is going to go back through my streams at some point, or I might even. I don't know if I've ever had pain in my face. Uh, jesus Christ, this is. This is worse than some of the survivor main posts that I've seen. Okay, who is this guy? Who is this guy? I want to, I want to figure out it. Okay, his username. Hang on, I've got to check this guy here because this is insane. He's only posted, he's only posted once, and he he said he, oh my God, okay, yeah, no, okay, yeah, no. He's not worth going to see his like history Conclusion and mental health self-heal advice Please.

Speaker 4:

Some people might argue that a lot of these issues are common in multiplayer games, but I would argue that they are not found altogether with so so few resources to heal with what does he mean by healing?

Speaker 1:

well, like you're, you have resources to healing. To heal in a game like do you really like? Do we need emotional healing when we play dead by daylight? I don't know if I need Like, is there something I'm missing? Is there an element to this game? Should I be stressed? Should I need emotional heal? Am I damaged from Dead by Daylight?

Speaker 4:

I don't even know Collectively, I think DBD's gameplay experiences have a huge potential to disrupt a player's personal life, their overall mood state. Here are some tips that will help you stay healthy.

Speaker 1:

I don't know if it has huge potential, because if you're playing dead by daylight and you're losing your shit, more than likely you were going to get on a different game and lose your shit, probably Call of Duty or something. Okay, okay.

Speaker 4:

While playing. Okay, mental health self-care advice. Okay, while playing.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 4:

Mental health self-care advice yes, in game, try to focus on the strategies you're using rather than on the outcomes of those strategies.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 4:

Streamers are experts at doing this. They attribute every loss to the failure of the strategy, not to themselves.

Speaker 1:

Do I do that Like I haven't even thought of that. They attribute every loss to the failure of their strategy, not to themselves. So is that like saying, hang on, so like you guys are with me. That's like saying I'm not a bad person, right? Like I'm not a piece of shit because I they got four escapes? Like that doesn't define me the toxic teacher, as a streamer, as a person, as a dbd player, I'm not a walking fucking pile of garbage because they escaped. Like that's me. Like okay, okay, so it's my strategy. I'm running the wrong perks. I'm not a piece of shit. I run fucking, uh, mad grit. Okay, it's just what the fuck happening here?

Speaker 4:

okay those that don't can be seen raging and screaming regularly in their stream.

Speaker 1:

Okay, rationalize more of the game they're blaming themselves and that's why they're okay. Oh, now what? Rationalize more of the game. Okay.

Speaker 4:

Killers. This involves predicting survivor movement and recognizing that some survivors are better than others and will be harder or even impossible to catch Right For survivors. This means evaluating your killers and your teammates' relative skills and recognizing that they all have different skill levels and different gameplay styles.

Speaker 1:

I mean, that's obvious right.

Speaker 4:

Sometimes they just aren't competent enough to risk help, okay, except the things you can't control, okay, I mean that's obvious, right.

Speaker 1:

Okay, okay, I mean, that's right.

Speaker 1:

That's something you should be doing. Is you know when a survivor is better than you. You know when a killer is better than you. You know when your teammates aren't any good, especially in solo queue, especially in 2v8, when the other killer killer sucks, or in 2v8 when you got seven people not working on a fucking generator and it's just fucking insane that you can have that. I'm not gonna go off on that soapbox, but anyway, let's go to the last part. Where that we're at, the almost to the last part.

Speaker 1:

Here we go is Is, uh, accepting what you can't control and this is something in in life, right, it's not just that by daylight accepting what you can. Oh, we're learning, we're healing. This is healing everybody. I'm, I'm healed. I'm like, uh, what's his name? The farting preacher. Do you remember that guy? I think his name was Robert Tilton. He was the farting preacher. Hang on. No, I pulled up my Outlook. I want to pull up YouTube. Hang on YouTube. The farting preacher. Here we go. Farting preacher, here we go. Farting preacher, here. The best of the farting preacher, here we go. It sounds like healing. We're going to be healed here. I don't know what this is going to sound like on stream, but we have to try. We have to try.

Speaker 2:

Call me. I'm told to launch out here.

Speaker 4:

It's amazing when the Lord speaks to me.

Speaker 3:

Call me right now 6206200.

Speaker 2:

Hallelujah, this is it. Hallelujah, let's get the vows and all the prayer requests here. What time do we have? 6206200? Hallelujah, hallelujah, let's get the vows and all the prayer requests here. What time do we have Two will see the glory of God.

Speaker 1:

Hallelujah. Oh, that's stupid. Okay, sorry, I apologize to you guys who are religious. No, you know what? I don't Because that's funny, no matter what, and there's no reason to apologize. Okay, anyway, let's keep, david, keep going accepting things.

Speaker 4:

We can't, but I don't because that's funny, no matter what, and there's no reason to apologize, Okay, anyway let's keep David, keep going Accepting things we can't control.

Speaker 3:

Heal us, David. Accept the things you can't control.

Speaker 4:

Some killers camp every single game.

Speaker 3:

Some survivors never go for saves.

Speaker 4:

Some survivors loop every object. You can't control that or change them, so accept it as a certainty. Try not to read into why they do things.

Speaker 1:

accept them for what they are yes, accept me for what I am. The fact that I that camp in tunnel and I fucking love it. It's amazing. Okay, uh, like an evil dwight what evil dwight?

Speaker 4:

there are evil survivors that just want to loop. That's evil. Accept them as evil loopers and rationalize their gameplay style as an effective one and rationalize over a new strategy. Right, if the strategy fails, the strategy fails, not you.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so that's the same thing. Blame the strategy, not your self-worth. Okay, fine, and now his last point use the close chat button. Is there a close chat use?

Speaker 4:

the close chat button. If you insist on reading the chat, come up with a standard, nonsensical response to taunts I don't know, it can't be sensical because then it can result in a painful counter response. Okay, silly and be disconnected from the outcomes of the game. As killer, I make growl sounds or just spam. Ha ha, ha, ha ha.

Speaker 1:

Asian cultures do the same. What the fuck is this this guy goes into like Asian cultures do the same. What? Oh, oh, my God, I don't know. I don't know where that part comes from, because that's not even agent. Cultures do the same thing to diffuse social tension by laughing as a survivor. Okay, okay, I can't like this. To me, this person's not a psychologist. They think there are, but they're not. I. I don't care what degree they have, it's not good. Let me, okay, let me see what the Steam responses to this are, because they've got to be good. You know, it's Steam, right?

Speaker 2:

So it's going to be bad.

Speaker 1:

Let me see, this makes sense. This all makes sense. I'm mostly a friendly killer. I mostly play this game for events into complete achievements. I like DVD, but I couldn't play for hours. It's stressful. If I play three, four matches a day, that's a good time for me. You know what I would say streaming, whenever I stream for a couple hours. That's about as much as I can do. I couldn't go longer than that. I couldn't. I couldn't go longer than that. Um, this guy is definitely not a psychologist. But the fucking thank you when is. Where is my clapping? I need the clapping here is somebody else said it. This guy is definitively not a psychologist because if he was, he should diagnose instead that every killer's a psychopath. And what? No, that's not right. No, this week on Campaign Themysophily. This person is not right, even though it says every survivor is a sadomasochist to play the game.

Speaker 1:

The last sentence can be true sometimes and works for five minutes, because five minutes is the time to forget the last match. I don't even know what that means. Okay, I can't. I can't. With that, I'm done. We have heard that one of the worst things that we'll ever hear. On camping them softly. It's god awful, not a psychologist. Thank you, david the non-psychologist, for coming by, and I am going to angry yes, I'm going to angry him out of the store now because, okay, shut up, shut up, shut up. Okay. So now that that was that okay. So now I skipped last week and we got to. We got to shift gears. Let's shift back here.

Speaker 1:

Um, is that I skipped our segment that we've done almost every single time. I skipped it because I'm a fucking jerk. Where the you know what? I got a new song for it and I have it on my button. I can just push it. Oh, no, I can't. I thought I downloaded it. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, shut up for a second, let me, let me grab it. Where is it? Where is it? Shut the fuck up. What, my God? You think I would have had it ready. Oh, here it is. Here it is Okay. The new and improved. Where the fuck are the viewers from? Is it? Is it coming when the fuck.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

Speaker 3:

I'm going to stop it there.

Speaker 1:

It's like a fucking epic. It's like one of those progressive metal songs that's like 27 minutes long by Dream Theater. What am I even talking about? I don't even know where half of this shit comes from. So, anyway, we've got A lot of new locations. We've got all over the world. We are and what the fuck was this here? I don't what happened on December 23rd? My downloads on December 23rd shot through the fucking roof and I have no idea why, but people went fucking nuts on December 23rd. I love it, but I cannot explain it. So, anyway, let's pick a spot. I'm going to pick a spot. Locations. Let me go to locations here, one of our most recent, by the way.

Speaker 1:

First, nikki, give me an overview of this place. Curse a lot and don't censor the spelling of the words, and also give me two good things and five bad things about Boink and I'm pasting, I'm pasting the, uh, the shit in there. So, okay, here we go. Oh no, I, I've got to check. I've got to check that he doesn't say anything racist or crazy or fucking, just like. Hang on, I've got to read. I've got to read Uh, yes, and we've got some other voices.

Speaker 1:

By the way, I've got, I've made personalities for some of Nikki, a identity. You know, he's our Italian, uh, our Italian co-host here. Um, I've made personalities for some of his family members and gang members and even his, his fucking what do I call it? His rivals as well, everything in the universe. Oh, that's Nikki, right there. I clicked the wrong fucking thing. Ok, let me. How do I click use? I just want to use the fucking voice. Ok, there we go. And Nikki, here we go. And he's going to start here in a minute with our place. I don't even know how to pronounce it. I think that's how it's pronounced. Thank you for coming by. Okay, shut the fuck up. Uh, I think. How is? How do you pronounce a votey? Do you pronounce a votey? Is that a vote. Hang on, I'm having to look up a YouTube.

Speaker 4:

PronounceNamescom.

Speaker 1:

Yes, pronouncenamescom Evu, evu, is it Evute, evute. Well, no, evote. Here we go. Evody, I'm just going to call you Evody, that's fine, that doesn't show. It doesn't show on here, the one place I'm looking, and I'm not going to look two place. I looked one place, I can't find it. Fuck it Like. Okay. So, nikki, you pronounce it, I'll go with whatever you say.

Speaker 3:

Ayo Evody, rio Grande do Sul. It's this quaint little fucking spot in Brazil, part of the Porto Alegre metro area. It's small, like 24,000 people.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so it's part of the Porto Alegre area. Okay, nikki, you sound a little bit different today. I don't know what's going on, but anyway it's got like 20,000 people. That's like my old college town that I grew up in, so it's not a big place, okay.

Speaker 3:

But they call it the city of flowers. So you know they think they're hot shit with all the gardens and whatnot. Okay, the place has got German roots. Oh, no Cause. A bunch of immigrants from the Rhine came back in the 1820s.

Speaker 1:

The Rhine.

Speaker 3:

River in Germany. Add to that some Japanese culture. Why is that? And? It's like a fucking fusion buffet of vibes. Oh, it's also on the rota romantica. This scenic ass route with cute little towns, kind of like a postcard exploded all over the fucking countryside now I gotta take a look at this place.

Speaker 1:

Evody brazil, hang on. Evody uh, brazil, uh pictures, hang on, let me see. Let me see what evote brazil. Is this a real thing? I b o t I, is it. Is it spelled? I b o t I, oh wow okay, yeah it looks cool, like, uh, if you are near a computer, look it, up it, it actually doesn't look bad. And it does not look like what you think Brazil would look like, like my stereotypical mind, my small mind, did not envision this. Okay, anyway, let's go. Two good things about Evote.

Speaker 3:

Two good things about Evote. Yeah, give it them flowers, bro. Okay, this place's gardens are legit. No lie, you like flowers? Boom, boom. You're about to buy day man. What, bro? Okay, this place's gardens are legit. No lie, you like flowers? Boom, boom. What the fuck? Everything looks like it's prepped for a wedding 24 7. Okay, you almost forget how fucking chaotic life is. He went boom, boom, boom.

Speaker 1:

Okay, german, japanese combo, the blend of german architecture okay, see, now he goes real fast to like make up for all the time he wasted the german japanese combo in japanese culture here is pretty fucking unique.

Speaker 3:

Oh, it is you got those old school timber frame houses yeah, and then a japanese immigrant memorial japanese. It's like oktoberfest meets cherry blossom season. Okay, five bad things about evote. Let's go small town bullshit. Oh let's be real. A place with 24 000 people. Everyone knows your business. Oh they do. Gossip flies faster than a fucking flashlight. Save in dbd okay, limited nightlife if you're looking to hit the clubs he's always.

Speaker 1:

you notice, that is Nicky's thing. Every single time we talk about a town that's less than like a fucking capital of a country, he's like there's nothing to do at night. He always needs a nightlife.

Speaker 3:

Hang on, raise some hell after dark. Good fucking luck. Yeah, the party scene's probably weaker than my speedrun spaghetti cousin trying to rush in. I don't know who speedrun spaghetti is Too fucking perfect. It's so clean and picturesque it almost feels fake. Oh, Like one of those places where the cops will find you for sneezing too loud.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's like Highland Park here in Dallas Humidity and heat.

Speaker 3:

Oh, I don't like humidity, the weather in southern Brazil can get muggy as shit.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I believe that it's in Southern Brazil. Like, where is this place on the map? Hang on, I got to check it, fucking um, let me see Evody map. Um, where is it in the country? Uh, porto Alegre. Okay, that's right on the coast, obviously, because it's a port, right. That makes fucking sense. Um, hang on, why can't I just find a fucking map of Brazil? I just want the fucking map. Uh, well, like Google is not my, it's like in the middle of uh Brazil, because you got fucking Rio at the the top. It's like halfway down, it's it's on the ocean, okay, I'm sure it's beautiful, okay, whatever, um, but yeah, humid, muggy, bullshit you'll be sweating balls trying to enjoy those goddamn flowers.

Speaker 3:

Okay, overhyped rhoda romantica over beautiful, yeah, but after the first couple towns every place starts to look the fucking same. Oh okay, you've seen one charming German village. You've seen them all. Oh okay, that's Evody in a nutshell. Okay, nice to visit? Yeah, but if you're stuck there too long I wouldn't go. You'll be making up drama just to feel alive. Making up drama Still Okay.

Speaker 1:

If Earl Grey shows up there, oh no, oh god, his rival site no tea drinking, disrespect allowed okay see he's mentioning his rival now every time I fucking talk to him anyway. That is fucking evody, brazil. Thank you for coming by. Let me get the.

Speaker 2:

I got to get that fucking thing here.

Speaker 1:

Hang on. Before I let you guys go, before I let a votey reserve go, I got to play a different one. Hang on, here we go, here we go, here. It is here it is. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. Is it playing? Is it going to play? It's playing. I think it's playing. Where is it? Where is it? Where is it?

Speaker 2:

I'm going to try that's going to be one of my vows for 2025 is to is to really hit it.

Speaker 1:

We've talked about the, the I'm getting serious for a second. We talked about the whole consistency, getting our shit in order and getting the kind of things where we want them to be right. Everybody. That's what we're all trying to do here is. We're trying to get where we want things to to be for us, and I don't feel like I'm there yet, but I feel like I can get there If I can, just, if I can just make that like that grasp.

Speaker 1:

You know what I mean? I don't know, I, that psychologist I need the fucking psychologist from before but there's, there's something and it's right there, it's right out there, and if I can grab, grab it, if I can just have that thing, that will give me the push that I need and it it doesn't come to you. The, the, the. The goal is right there in front of you and you, you have to be the one to reach out. It does not reach out to you, you reach out to it and I'm getting like emotionally, like fucking. You know, uh, what's the word for it? Uh, not that it was inspirational what in the hell is this?

Speaker 1:

crap. We gotta stop there. You see what I do. It's a defense mechanism. I'm like in the asian cultures how they diffuse awkwardness with what the fuck I'm. Anyway, guys, this is it for 2024. I will see you in 2025. Hope your new year goes well. Be safe. We'll see you on the other side. Get the fuck out of my 2024 face. Satan, hot sauce robinson, you're gonna see us out.
