Welcome back! This weeks guest is the very wonderful Lee! Lee and Salem discuss their new found love for poke bowls, attempt to guess the state capitols, do at least three separate Google searches, their experience seeing A24's new film Undertone and Lee's tendency to fall asleep at the movies, several musicals they've seen recently and more!
It's like a montage. Yeah, and then in the middle of talking about like like the religious aspects of like transness and like them being worshipped, they're putting in real footage of like trans people being beaten with clubs and like rocks thrown at them and shit. I'm like in tears crying in the back of this theater and I look over and I wasn't snoring though, that was good. That's true, because I think I would have started laughing hysterically. I think I think I would have started kissing myself laughing.
SPEAKER_00You look like a fucking asshole.
SPEAKER_04I'm not. I can't. We got in Pokeballs recently.
SPEAKER_03You did?
SPEAKER_04I opened your third eye. Are you not? I am, but did you not pardon? I was the request not will you be where you are today, later today, for even longer, so you can bring home Pokeballs for lunch. I just want a confirmation check on that.
SPEAKER_03They're good.
SPEAKER_04They are good. Uh the show started, by the way. We're in it. We're in it. I don't have a cute little intro anymore. I mean, the song, I don't know. There's some shit.
SPEAKER_03Whatever. Did you end up putting the song in there?
SPEAKER_04I think so. I guess we'll find out. Did it play? Let us know in the comments.
SPEAKER_03I was to say. Um I have to turn this around. What is showing right now?
SPEAKER_04You know what the best part is not even on screen.
SPEAKER_03Yay! That's fine.
SPEAKER_04No, yeah, none of it's on screen. Okay, good. Um, currently, this is now the second time uh a bit on the show has been talking about stuff off screen since last episode. Yeah, we were looking at the swords, and then I went, Do you guys like this bit? That is purely visual, but even the visual listener, like viewers can't see it.
SPEAKER_03I hate that.
SPEAKER_04What the fuck are you doing here?
SPEAKER_03I live here.
SPEAKER_04That's true. Yeah. Yeah, it happens sometimes. We're gonna try not to, but every once in a while it gets a little crazy.
SPEAKER_03I live here.
SPEAKER_04I do.
SPEAKER_03I don't know what it's from. I live here. I don't know what it's from.
SPEAKER_04I don't know if it's a TikTok or a vine. I don't know. I think it was a TikTok.
SPEAKER_03I live here.
SPEAKER_04I feel like it was recent enough.
SPEAKER_03Can I go? Can I look it up really quick? You can look at it. We can edit stuff.
SPEAKER_04We can I mean I prefer not to edit too much because it's like people are looking at it and it's a podcast. So I'm just gonna keep doing the heavy lifting while you Google something on your phone. Uh we're here on the pod. I don't number these episodes anymore because it's not it is a Chrishvine. It sure is a Chrishvine, isn't it?
SPEAKER_03Alright. I live here. I've been doing it wrong the whole time, too. I just go, I just go, I live here, and that's like not how they do it.
SPEAKER_04It's fine, it's close enough.
SPEAKER_03Everybody knows what it is. It's fine.
SPEAKER_04None of the stuff Chrish does makes any sense, but we all love it and all the same. That's true. Um God, dude. I'm just full of poke. So full of pokeball. I'm so full of pokeball and cake. We also had cake. Cake. It was truly a day. I've been eating thin mints. We've been eating thin mints. We've been in this bitch eating wasabi peas.
SPEAKER_03Love wasabi peas.
SPEAKER_04I tried takoyaki. It wasn't into it.
SPEAKER_03It wasn't the type that it should have been. It they had like no I will say it is largely that texture, so you probably wouldn't like it anyway. But I feel as though I like the first Takayaki ball that I ate was good and I felt like it had a good amount of octopus in it.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03And then the rest of them didn't.
SPEAKER_04I have wanted to try Takayaki because there's an anime I watched, and a girl gets arrested while trying to buy it, and she loves it. Oh, is it right, yeah. And I was like, damn, that looks delicious. And then you told me it's good octopus, and I was like, okay. And then I tried it today, and it was fried, certainly.
SPEAKER_03It's not, to be fair, it is not fried octopus.
SPEAKER_04It is like a fried octopus ball.
SPEAKER_03It is a ball of like rice mush and an octopus, and then they fry that, and then they put those little fish flakes on it. And I don't like the fish flakes.
SPEAKER_04But what it well, what today's was was a fried bowl of fucking cement.
SPEAKER_03Delicious. No, it's so good.
SPEAKER_04It was there was no rice.
SPEAKER_03No, that's it's I may also be wrong about what is in it. So hold on a second.
SPEAKER_04Are you googling that too? Yeah. What an episode already. Well. It I took a bite of it, and it it felt like you know that episode of SpongeBob where the the uh corporation comes in and they're putting the gray stuff in the crabby patties.
SPEAKER_03Yes.
SPEAKER_04Go for it.
SPEAKER_03Wheat flour.
SPEAKER_04Okay.
SPEAKER_03Wheat flour batter filled with dice octopus, tempura scraps, and green onion, which that's not true. They definitely put green onion on it, but they didn't have it.
SPEAKER_04Anyway, they didn't put none of that shit in there.
SPEAKER_03They didn't put any of that shit. They put green onion on top of it. They did not put tempera scraps in there, they just put wheat flour batter in there.
SPEAKER_04It was rough, and so I was not a fan of that. So I just take it my little pokeball instead.
SPEAKER_03I will I will continue to buy Takiyaki from places that we go to, and then you can always try it.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. If they haven't, it's like eight bucks.
SPEAKER_03It's fine.
SPEAKER_04We need to try those Wagyu pot stickers. We had that one time. I need to I need my third eye open.
SPEAKER_03Shout out to Sushi Samba at the Venetian in Vegas for a $25 order of Wagyu pot stickers. There's six of them. And I did, I think, cried about them. They were very good.
SPEAKER_04Sometimes something's just so good you gotta cry a little bit about. So good. I don't think I've got food food.
SPEAKER_03But I'm so scared that we're gonna go and you're gonna be like, these are just okay. These are fine.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Or or we're gonna go and they're not gonna be there anymore. I think they will be, they're still there.
SPEAKER_04So I think what the most likely outcome will be is that we go and there are delicious, but it just rips my insides apart.
SPEAKER_03Oh, easy. Yeah. Oh, because wagyu's mostly fat.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and what we've learned is that anytime I eat anything, you get punched by God. I die. Yeah. The little inside meetings. No, it's okay. I'm like fucking President Snow. I'm just gonna go.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, you're poisoning yourself. Slowly poisoning yourself. Well, we had Wagyu.
SPEAKER_04And it was tough for me. It was a rough.
SPEAKER_03We didn't cook it enough.
SPEAKER_04That's true. We probably didn't cook it enough. We don't know what the fuck. I don't know how to do it. I have no bullshit.
SPEAKER_03It was it was just it was just it was just burgers.
SPEAKER_04It was just wagging.
SPEAKER_03They just made them burgers. Yeah. At the store. It was like, here you go, here's some burgers. Here's some pre-made burgers. Okay. Um I don't know how to cook it otherwise, so it doesn't really matter. I I am of the belief that like most of the time I'm just God, I'm so sorry. Most of the time uh Wagyu is not like it's good, but it's not like that.
SPEAKER_04It's a little over the top.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, I it truly, like I honestly I feel like they probably just made some really good pot stickers there. Yeah, they would have made them good if it was just like fucking ground beef, it would have been fine. Um but yeah.
SPEAKER_04I need that. Yeah, I need some kind of food that's gonna change my life.
SPEAKER_03I'm trying to think of what other foods that are like that, but I don't have none, I don't think. Although, also, shout out to Sushi Samba because we got a free appetizer because the uh waiter recognized uh my friend's uh ID. Shout out Auburn, California. He was like, my dad's from there, and then he gave us a free appetizer.
SPEAKER_04They said, Yo, I've heard of there.
SPEAKER_03That's what living in California is like.
SPEAKER_04It is true, dude.
SPEAKER_03That was five hours away from you, dude. That was so close, I can't believe that happened.
SPEAKER_04The amount of times I've looked at a movie and been like, holy shit, they're in Sacramento.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, but that's different.
SPEAKER_04Is it I don't live there? I don't live there. I don't live in California. Um look at us. We live in Portland.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, that's true. We're in the polyamorous Portland house.
SPEAKER_04Anywhere in California though, like I feel like people if you live in California, people automatically assume you live in Los Angeles.
SPEAKER_03This is true. And I will say this happens with other states, like in the way that like everybody assumes that like LA is the capital if they don't know too much about it. But I also thought that Portland was a capital of Oregon. It is not, it is Salem, Oregon. Salem Oregon, right?
SPEAKER_04Yeah. But you would just assume because it's the one.
SPEAKER_03It's the one that's it is Vancouver the capital of Washington?
SPEAKER_04No, I think it's I think it's Tacoma, isn't it?
SPEAKER_03Is it Tacoma?
SPEAKER_04Is it get out third Google coming in? Coming in hot on. I could be wrong. Don't quote me on that.
SPEAKER_03Capitol Capital of Washington. Washington, no Egypt of Washington?
SPEAKER_04Washington, America.
SPEAKER_03It's Olympia.
SPEAKER_04Oh, that doesn't count. Who would know that?
SPEAKER_03Who the fuck would ever know that?
SPEAKER_04I don't know that.
SPEAKER_03I don't know uh where most of the states are, so that's they really failed me in geography.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, they didn't play this little stuff.
SPEAKER_03Are you good at that? Do you know where states are? Like most of them?
SPEAKER_04I know where the states are.
SPEAKER_03Do you all of them?
SPEAKER_04Not all of them, but I could probably get- I know the ones over here. If you hand me hand me some some name, you you get throw me on Geogesser.
SPEAKER_03I don't know if that would work. GeoGesser's a little bit different.
SPEAKER_04What am I thinking of? Throw me on the game where you map up the maps.
SPEAKER_03You yeah, you line up the maps. Yeah. Because GeoGuesser is the one where they put you in like Google Maps and you have to figure out where you are in the entire world.
SPEAKER_04Oh, I don't know. I thought it there's one I've seen where like it's just a map and you gotta it gives you a place and you gotta click it on the map.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, that's just like something. That's like a geography test.
SPEAKER_04Throw me on the geography test. I'll fucking pass it probably at least 90%. I could get most I but I can't do like the state capitals for every state.
SPEAKER_03No.
SPEAKER_04I could do a ton of them.
SPEAKER_03I used to be a proficient reader. I could do a couple.
SPEAKER_04I was an advanced reader, mind you.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, I I had a I had a 12th grade reading level in the fifth grade.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. And look at us now. We listen to books.
SPEAKER_03Well, I work all the time.
SPEAKER_04It's true. It's hard to listen to books sometimes, though.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Sorry. I get to be alone with my thoughts at my job, so thank God I'm not.
SPEAKER_04You got me to listen to Hunger Games, though. All of them? No. Yeah, I was gonna say don't all say all of them.
SPEAKER_01All of them.
SPEAKER_04That's not true. I'm going to. I like all of them. I swear. The newer ones are just better, though.
SPEAKER_03Anyway, they just expand better. I've never read it. They're just better. Well, they're definitely better movies. Uh and a better adaptation of a book is the new movie as well.
SPEAKER_04So I we I think we've learned I have this unfortunate trait where if people tell me to watch or consume any media too much, I don't out of protest. You won't do it. I don't like being told what to do. Yeah. And so I was like that with the Hungry Games for a long time because I was like, I'm not watching this dumbass bullshit. It's for babies. And then you were like, I want to go see the new one in the movies. And I was like, Well, I like the movies, so I'll go.
SPEAKER_01Well, I like movies.
SPEAKER_04I like the movies, so I'll go see it. And then I did. I was like, this fucking movie kicks.
SPEAKER_03I probably go to the movies, I fucking hate it though.
SPEAKER_04Which, like, like we really the last couple times we went, the crowds weren't even bad. Which sucks because they're the some of the worst we've ever seen the last couple of times. Undertone wasn't that bad.
SPEAKER_03It was just You apologize to the whole group.
SPEAKER_04I was mad. I hyped it up too much.
SPEAKER_03It's true. And we went at 9 p.m.
SPEAKER_04It was my own doing. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Undertone was fine. It just wasn't it could have been cooler. It could have been a short film.
SPEAKER_04It could have been cooler.
SPEAKER_03It would have been way better as a short film.
SPEAKER_04Now I will say, I'm all I have a I have a beef to pick with the internet real quick, and I don't do this a ton. But everyone sitting there in TikTok comments and stuff, being like, I think people who didn't like this movie just have a short attention span and can only handle jump scare fast.
SPEAKER_03Oh, we watched skin emergenc.
SPEAKER_04I like skin emarink, so you can't say that to me. I like boring shit when it's scary. You like the witch. Yeah, I like the witch. There's no fucking jumpscares in it. I just won. I just think it's a I I mean, how many times have we done this? This is the only the second episode of the relaunch. I've already done this four times. Have you? It's fucking It's the classic example of like people are either like, this is the scariest movie I've ever seen. I had drowned my kids when I got home because I couldn't live in a world where Undertone exists and so do my kids. Or like, I think whoever made this should be put in Town Square and thrown with rocks. And it's like, or get this. I saw it and I was like, Yeah.
SPEAKER_03It was fine. Yeah. I saw this and went, I'm glad I didn't really spend money on it. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04If I saw this on Shudder, I'd be like, sure.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04That's what it felt. Felt like a Shudder original. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03It was it. Which isn't always a bad thing. No. It was unfortunately the most polite uh theater audience that we'd ever been in.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, it was dead fucking quiet.
SPEAKER_01I'm just listening.
SPEAKER_04Because the movie was like, we're gonna do sound stuff.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04So they said we'll be quiet. And then they didn't do like none of it.
SPEAKER_03And then yeah, then one sound thing happened, and then I was covering my ears for like half the movie.
SPEAKER_04That's fair. I wasn't because I was fucking bored out of my mind. They didn't do nothing cool with it.
SPEAKER_03One movie I don't fall asleep during. I've fallen asleep during, I believe, three movies in the last couple years. But they're all boring.
SPEAKER_04We went and saw Nosferatu at like 10 a.m. 10 a.m. because I I'm a fucking freak, and if I want to see a movie, we're gonna see that shit as soon as I can.
SPEAKER_03Fucking I fell asleep.
SPEAKER_04And for those of you who haven't seen Nosferatu, it's a great movie.
SPEAKER_03It's so boring.
SPEAKER_04Holy fuck. It's literally people standing around rooms being like, huh.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. He's there. And I think and I think the the scene that I fell asleep in was possibly the m one of the more interesting scenes, which is the Willem Defoe. I don't know, spoilers. The Willem Defoe, like, wasn't he like getting like a casket with his dead wife or whatever?
SPEAKER_04That's uh Aaron Taylor Johnson. He gets an extraordinary with his dead wife, yeah. Oh and he does fuck her. Does fuck her, but like crazy.
SPEAKER_03I think I was asleep during that.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03But I saw people talking about it and I went.
SPEAKER_04When did that happen? It's quick, you blink and you miss it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04But it's because he loves her. He can't be away from her. He loves her.
SPEAKER_03I don't know. He loves his wife.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, his wife is the actor from Deadpool who plays uh evil evil Professor X's sister. I've only seen it once. Uh me too. And she fucking dies over a year ago. She dies as hell. But yeah, we're sitting there and the movie's happening, and then I it's dead fucking quiet, and I just hear and I look over and Leasha's like eyes wide open. Sorry.
SPEAKER_03Also a very quiet theater audience.
SPEAKER_04He dead silent. They understood ball. Or other theory, they were also all asleep and it was just me.
SPEAKER_03I also unfortunately fell asleep during the most emotional moment in the movie Monkey Man. We went and saw fucking Monkey Man. It was late.
SPEAKER_04It was late. It was another one. We saw that like 8 or 9 p.m. and it's a fucking two and a half hour movie.
SPEAKER_03I'm 47 years old.
SPEAKER_04Lee also can can watch action and fight stuff, but doesn't care about it the same way I do. Like you'll watch it and be like, this is good. This is a good story. But like he's not like fucking standing up freaking out when someone does like a cool like fuck like I do. It's like fine. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Well, also because for some reason a lot of the time it looks like over-edited half the time that they're doing it. I don't think I had that problem with Monkey Man, but sometimes with Warrior.
SPEAKER_04Monkey Man's a lot. I mean, Warrior, they're just really that fast because they're fucking they're martial artists.
SPEAKER_03I don't think that's true. I don't think they are that fast.
SPEAKER_04They are that fast.
SPEAKER_03I think you're I think the camera's too hot too fast.
SPEAKER_04I think you're just racist.
SPEAKER_03No, I just don't think they can do that.
SPEAKER_04They can. Bruce Lee told me.
unknownAlright.
SPEAKER_04Monkey Man's real slow though. The fighting's more slow and scrappy. So it looks more real.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, and I fell asleep during like the most devastating season.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, there's like a part he like gets his ass kicked or something. He like retreats to this like trans like haven um where they talk about like goddesses and deities and stuff being like trans and like like the importance of trans people and trans culture. It's like a montage. Yeah, and then of the in the middle of talking about like like the religious aspects of like transness and like them being worshipped, they're putting in real footage of like trans people being beaten with clubs and like rocks thrown at them and shit. I'm like in tears crying in the back of this theater, and I look over and I wasn't snoring though, that was good. That's true, because I think I would have started laughing hysterically. I think I think I would have started kissing myself laughing.
SPEAKER_00And then you look like a fucking asshole.
SPEAKER_04I'm in a hoodie in the back of the theater laughing at trans people getting their shit rocked. Yeah. No, please, I'm one of you.
SPEAKER_01No, please, please, please, please. So yeah, um, what else did I fall asleep during? I don't know. Something.
SPEAKER_04I saw Gladiator by myself.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, I would have fallen asleep.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, well, they I almost did. I saw that shit at 8 a.m.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04And my I was supposed to go with my dad and brother, and they canceled, and I was like, I gotta get out of the house. So I just went and saw Gladiator 2, and I was like, honestly, this shit sucks.
SPEAKER_03It was fine.
SPEAKER_04It was fine. It could have it was like fun to look at. But like after a while I went It's just the first movie, I mean it but like worse. Like after a while I went like him and how did they get sharks in the uh gladiator arena? They're like, we're gonna flood it and put sharks in there, you guys fight on boats. And I'm like, I don't think that's how any of that works.
SPEAKER_03I don't I wouldn't put it past her.
SPEAKER_04You know what? Fair enough. Pedro Pascal did it.
SPEAKER_03I feel like I feel like they could do that.
SPEAKER_01They did a lot of shit. They got a lot of shit there.
SPEAKER_04I'm I'm glad that movie's uh popularity just came and went because by the time it was like already being talked about, I was tired of hearing about it.
SPEAKER_03I feel like sequels, like, because Gladiator, the first one, was very big for a long time, I feel like, right?
SPEAKER_04And yeah, like sequels sequels for movies like that just kind of It's just like how do we do how do we it's how do we make it better? Specifically sequels to movies that came out 10, 15 years ago, it's like basically how do we do the first one but not make it a remake so people aren't mad.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, you know what I mean?
SPEAKER_03And it's like just remaking it.
SPEAKER_04He's literally his son, and then they do the thing where like two legacy characters come back, and it's just like but I wanted to see guys fucking kicking and punching each other with swords. And I hey you know what I did? So I f I watched them fight a tiger on a boat, and I was like, fair enough.
SPEAKER_03Cool, why not?
SPEAKER_04Sometimes that's all you need. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Um yeah, I don't have movies like that. I don't I don't care about fighting like that. I thought sucker punch was really cool.
SPEAKER_04Sucker punch is cool. I really like Sucker Punch. There's people kicking and punching in that one.
SPEAKER_03They're gonna kickin' and punching. There's guns.
SPEAKER_04There is guns and swords, and they've got charms on them. They do have charms on them. It's cute.
SPEAKER_03I like that movie, and I think that everybody should give it a chance.
SPEAKER_04Do people not like Sucker Punch?
SPEAKER_03People not like Zucker Punch.
SPEAKER_04Why? Is that a Zack Snyder joint?
SPEAKER_03It's bad.
SPEAKER_01It is a Zack Snyder joint.
SPEAKER_04Zachary.
SPEAKER_03It's well, because a lot of the times, like when people watch it now, they'll be like, Well, it's um like I don't know, like a like a movie made by men to like objectify women, and I'm like, yeah, kinda, but also she's hot.
SPEAKER_04Also, why are they all hot though?
SPEAKER_03Why are they all hot though? I get it. I understand if you don't like movies that are like that, I totally get it. But I watched that movie when I was 10 years old, and it's really good.
SPEAKER_04I watched it because I was like, these cool girls are fucking killing.
SPEAKER_03And they're cool, and then I think that girl became the girl from series unfortunate events or something.
SPEAKER_04I think she was that before.
SPEAKER_03Before that. Well, I think you're right. I think series unfortunate events. And the other girl was in Twilight. The other girl was in Twilight.
SPEAKER_04No, she was in Hunger Games.
SPEAKER_03She was in Hunger Games, it was Joanna from Hunger Games.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Love her.

SPEAKER_04She's there.
SPEAKER_03Um Oscar Isaac is there, right?
SPEAKER_04Yes, he's the guy. Yeah. He's the Easter.
SPEAKER_03That was like one of his, I'm assuming not his first fucking role.
SPEAKER_04It was like, I think his first big role thing that I remember.
SPEAKER_03That's all I know. I ain't never seen him before that.
SPEAKER_04I ain't never seen him until now.
SPEAKER_03I actually, I mean, I thought I had never seen him until Star Wars. So.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Where'd he go? Is he tired?
SPEAKER_03Well, what's happening with Moon Knight? It's not Oscar. That is Oscar Isaac.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. They don't fucking care about Moon Knight.
SPEAKER_03Uh, we apparently we don't either. I keep telling, I keep going, we can we can keep watching Moon Knight and you go, Oh, we're gonna watch Warrior.
SPEAKER_04We got to. I fucking you suggested re-watching Warrior, you fuck.
SPEAKER_03We're gonna watch ten more seasons of Grey's Anatomy before we're gonna be able to get it.
SPEAKER_04Because we talked we talked about how we don't remember what happened in season three, and we're like, we just watched the whole thing. That's true. You pitched it now, I'm living it.
SPEAKER_03Well, before that, when we were when we were couldn't figure out shit to watch, I was like, Well, you watching Moon Knight.
SPEAKER_04We can finish Moon Knight. Probably should. I like it. I like it. It's good.
SPEAKER_03I think it's fine.
SPEAKER_04It's a good show. I understand why people who don't care about Moon Knight don't like it. Yeah. But like, it's not for you, dumbass. It's for me, because I don't know if you make it for you.

SPEAKER_03That's true. And it's like fifty dollars.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03That's fine. But also if I'm gonna spend fifty dollars, I'd rather spend it seeing fucking, I don't know, gray matter. That is okay, because I was looking at our calendar and it's Godspell, Nevermore, and then uh uh Titans. Titans after that. Yeah, and Midi Kingdom. It's like within like a week. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03We have the problem of of I only like I only like the 2012 arena tour with Tim Minchin and Ben Forster.
SPEAKER_04It's the listen. It's the best one. It's the best one, and I'm so sorry for the purists who like the original.
SPEAKER_03And I've just learned that they changed a lyric.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Uh and and I always thought that that was the original one. It's the in and I don't talk to me about how to pronounce guessamane. I'm gonna say guess I mean, I don't care. Um yeah, it in uh Ben Forster's version he says uh God thy will be done, take your only son, and that goes way harder uh than whatever the fight's like. God thy will is hard.
SPEAKER_04I hold the card.
SPEAKER_03I hold the card. Shut the fuck up. Shut the f fuck up. Shut the fuck. Angeloid Weber and Tim Rice. I don't care. That sucks.
SPEAKER_04We're watching if you let them be bugs, maybe I would say that was they can't be bugs, so we were watching it last night, and he he he uh the guy we saw was one of the Spider-Man in Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark.
SPEAKER_02He was Peter Parker in Spider-Man Turn Off Dark.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, he was really good as he's alive, he survived. Yeah, um, but he was our Jesus. Okay and he was good, but we were listening to Gethsemane, and that happened, and I threw me off.
SPEAKER_03And I think I was dissociating through it. I don't I don't remember that happening.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, it was a long, it was weirdly a long show for it being an hour and fucking five minutes, an hour and ten minutes. The show was so short, yeah.
SPEAKER_03I dude, I'm saying I don't know what they cut out. Maybe they just do maybe they're just faster now.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, who knew it was fast that fucking orchestra that tempo was fucking jumping. There's a couple times I was like, whoa guys, slow down, slow down, slow down.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, and I I won't I don't want to like tark shit on anybody like publicly or anything, so I won't, but I will just say I only like Tim Minchin as Judas. And I know that that's wrong. I know I know that everybody doesn't like it.
SPEAKER_04I know it's wrong.
SPEAKER_03He is my only I'm unfortunately the movie the the well, yeah, the movie, the everything has been out for 50 years now. Uh, and unfortunately he's the best one.
SPEAKER_04He just the way he does it, and I'm sure there's some people, and we've talked about this before, but I'm sure there's some people who are like, oh, he's doing too much. Good.
SPEAKER_03He's not good, nobody else is doing enough.
SPEAKER_04Do more.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Do more.
SPEAKER_04It feels so awkward when they watch a regular version and they go to hit one of the notes and they just stop like 20 seconds faster than you.
SPEAKER_03Dude, Tim Enchin's just just hooting and hollering on stage.
SPEAKER_04Dude, he's so good. When he does superstar and he's just fucking making noises back, he's incredible. Yeah, I mean, they should have let him do like a Type 5 or something in the middle. Oh my god.
SPEAKER_03Well, he's not wasn't like that kind of thing.
SPEAKER_04He just hops on his piano.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. I love him. Exactly.
SPEAKER_04We've learned nothing else about him.
SPEAKER_03I will say the eeriness of uh Judas's death in that one was like the rope swinging sound. Yeah.
SPEAKER_04They obviously can't do what they did in the regular in the production we like, which is a man wears a harness and pretends to hang himself because we were at the fucking local, like it was Broadway Sacramento, but it's a smaller Broadway at music circus, so it's like a round stage.
SPEAKER_03It's very small.
SPEAKER_04So they're like, we can't do that, obviously. So instead, he like the the guy playing Judas like climbs up the stairs and then like disappears, and they have like screens behind every section. And they just do like a silhouette of him hanging, and they just play the rope swinging sounds, and both of us looked at each other like it was so scary, actually. It was they left it there for like a little too long, and it was really good.
SPEAKER_03I thought they were gonna leave it there for like the entire next song. Yeah, it was like that long.
SPEAKER_04I liked the usage of the screens. That was cool. It was good. They did some fun stuff up there. Everyone did great. Yeah, for you know, like there was just we're picky about our interpretations, but like they were popping off. The fucking ensemble was going nuts.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, the ensemble was great.
SPEAKER_04They were going fucking a lot of fruits. There's a lot of gays in that one.
SPEAKER_03They also, I like they let them have whatever haircuts they wanted.
SPEAKER_04They didn't give a shit, dude. I saw a rat tail at one point.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, they had a couple rat tails, some weird shit going on. Uh, less white people with dreads. That's the other thing I'll give I'll I'll give them I'll give people about the arena tour is a large number of white people with dreads, and there's nothing there's nothing I can do about it.
SPEAKER_04There's nothing we can do to take that away.
SPEAKER_03I can't, sorry. Tim mentioned he just did it. Tim, he just did it.
SPEAKER_04And I you know, I can't I can't defend it.
SPEAKER_03I can't just fucking 20 years later.
SPEAKER_04I'm just saying, listen first.
SPEAKER_03Look it up on YouTube.
SPEAKER_04Look it up, dude. The his all of his big numbers are on there, except for I think l uh like his like the one where he actually portrays them.
SPEAKER_03Uh Blood Money or whatever the fuck.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, that was another thing. As we're watching, I think it was during Herod's song, which by the way, I'm also kind of picky about Herod's song.
SPEAKER_02I thought it was good.
SPEAKER_04I thought it was good. I I popped because he I don't know if this is what he usually looks like in the original show. Like, I don't know how faithful this was to the original costuming. He had Will Farrell's haircut from fucking Zoolander, and it really made me laugh. It's really funny.
SPEAKER_03I liked his mesh shirt.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, he had a little mesh tank top, his nipples were hanging out.
SPEAKER_03No, it was good.
SPEAKER_04It was good. He did great. It's a fun song to sing. Yeah, like I don't think there's a bad way to do it. I just yeah, I like a certain energy. I think he brought it.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_04But I remember middle of that song, I think I leaned to you and I was like, I just realized I don't think I know the context for why the fuck he's here.
SPEAKER_03I don't know the mythology of Jesus. Sorry guys.
SPEAKER_04If but like even within the narrative is what I'm saying, like if if I didn't already know vaguely the story of Jesus Christ Superstar, I would have had no fucking clue what was going on.
SPEAKER_03Especially because it's such a different vibe, that song, too. Like it really takes you out of it and go, why are we here? I will say for somebody who is not religious and was not raised religious, for the fact of three of my top musicals being like religious-based musicals, and only one of them's a joke.
SPEAKER_04Oh, what would you say? Jesus Christ Superstar.
SPEAKER_03Book of Mormon.
SPEAKER_04Book of Mormon.
SPEAKER_03Uh Joseph the Amazing Titanic. Joseph.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Which Okay, and then I guess it's not okay. I wasn't raised religious, but but my grandmother was religious, so I had a a like children's book of Bible stories, and the original Joseph and DreamCoat is part of one of those books that I used to read. Whatever. But yeah, I don't know why it's so funny.
SPEAKER_04It makes me mad because uh when we watched it, so in the past like two years, Lee showed me like all of my favorite musicals. Um I thought I knew ball. You knew like two musicals. I knew like four musicals. I was like Sweeney Todd Phantom, ever heard of it?
SPEAKER_03Sweeney Todd, Lamist, Phantom, Hamilton, Hamilton.
SPEAKER_04Um I don't know, like I knew some ones, but like, you know, the big ones that are like the famous ones. Fucking cats. Like I knew of it. Of it. But like I'd never seen Ride the Cyclone.
SPEAKER_02It's incredible.
SPEAKER_04It's one of my favorites now.
SPEAKER_02Incredible.
SPEAKER_04Um what else did you show me that uh Next to Normal you just showed me? Next to normal incredible. Uh yeah, I'll talk about that at some point. Um But we were we had we had bought uh Joseph and the Amazing Technical Dreamcoat on DVD at a DVD store we go to. And uh we were like, let's throw it on. First of all, it's like it's like when your when your fucking like uncle exports a fucking cap cut video. It's like this for some reason.
SPEAKER_03I don't know, they just how they made them.
SPEAKER_04They fucked it up. I don't know, they fucked up the print.
SPEAKER_03Maybe it was a bootleg, I don't know.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, because it's someone in there's gonna be like you fucking dumb old you fucking dumb young bitch, you don't know what four by three is. It's not four by three.
SPEAKER_03It's not four by three.
SPEAKER_04It is in sixteen by nine.
SPEAKER_03I'm actually I'm actually very well versed in what four by three looks like it's I have six.
SPEAKER_04Several CRTs. It's not just the lines, I'm talking they took a 16x9 and they shrunk it. It's fucking bizarre.
SPEAKER_03I don't know why. Well, that happens to a lot of our a lot of our DVDs when we try to put it on like the new TV too, though. That's true.
SPEAKER_04Maybe it's just like a new TV too. You can't handle it. Yeah, um, it's incredible. Um Donnie Osman. But then we we threw it on and I was like, holy fuck, I've seen this before.
SPEAKER_03Oh, yeah, because you used to watch it like you're gonna be able to help, right?
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and I'd seen it before and it just went over my head. I probably was coloring, I wasn't paying attention, I was reading my comic book Bible. Dude, Joseph Fuck, though. Joseph Fuck.
SPEAKER_03It's so Jack and Cody's dad is there. Yeah, yeah, he's incredible.
SPEAKER_04It's a great musical. I want to see it live. Very badly.
SPEAKER_03May I return? Sorry. Um, I I've seen it live. Oh no, no, thank you. And I have pictures from the stage door of that one. I look insane.
SPEAKER_04I was flash them on screen now. 15 years old.
SPEAKER_03I guess I could send them to you, but Jesus Christ.
SPEAKER_04No, it's great. I love it. I was listening to it on the way home today.
SPEAKER_03Joseph?
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Yeah. It was great.
SPEAKER_03Uh Joseph, what else is there? We just watched Come From Away.
SPEAKER_04Dude.
SPEAKER_03Which I don't want to spoil anything about Come From Away. Because I but so I need I need everybody who, if you don't know what it's about and you want to watch kind of a cool musical, don't look up anything. Don't look up anything and try. Okay, listen. I unfortunately I have fallen away from being able to like learning how to pirate things again. So we watched it on Apple TV. Yeah. Fuck the whatever. Okay. Everyone has a vice. Ours is we have $260 a month worth of.
SPEAKER_04So watch them.
SPEAKER_03Um close your eyes for the first 10 seconds.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, don't, yeah, don't look at the TV. Don't read the synopsis.
SPEAKER_03Oh, it's good. It's really fun.
SPEAKER_04That's how I experienced it.
SPEAKER_03It's a it's one of those ones that you kind of don't think that it's gonna kind of get you, but for some reason it did.
SPEAKER_04There's something about it. Yeah, like we won't spoil it, but it's we just bought tickets for it actually.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04While we were in the seats for Jesus Christ Superstar, we saw on the the Titan Trons that they were doing it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04And or in the program too.
SPEAKER_03And then we were like several months from now.
SPEAKER_04Front row, baby.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, front row.
SPEAKER_04We're gonna be right here. I'm ready to come from away. Let's go. I'm so excited.
SPEAKER_03I'm an islander.
unknownYeah.
SPEAKER_03That was it. That is a strange song for them to sing when all white people are. Hey, an islander. I am very buddy.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. It's great though. Watch it. It's it's really one of those, like, we just come, we had hurt like I don't think.
SPEAKER_03I'd seen it on I'd seen it on like TikTok and stuff when people were talking about it. We also watched Marile we roll along, which was fine.
SPEAKER_04I would Okay.
SPEAKER_03I wanted to like it more, but it was just like such a musical-ass musical.
SPEAKER_04It it was boring, it was just yeah, it was very standard.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04I think the story would have been better told in regular order.
SPEAKER_03In regular order.
SPEAKER_04It's it's basically about this one I'll spoil because I don't give a fuck. Who cares? It's the plot of the show. It which I guess come from away would be the two, but that one's cooler. Um, it's just about three friends kind of falling apart over time for like different reasons. I won't spoil the reasons, but like, and it's told in reverse of like, here's how they got there, and or like here's where they are, and here's how they got there. I think it hurts the show. Like, I think it'd be better if it was other than the final number, it pays off a little.
SPEAKER_03It and only a little bit because it makes you go, oh.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, it's like, oh that's sad, but it's like it'd be even sadder if at the end it's just fucking galone. And it's like, well, yeah, but it just it just they they had a gimmick and they they tried it and it just wasn't super interesting.
SPEAKER_03It's it's one of those, I mean it's another one that would got like so talked up for me that like people are you know, I well, I listened to fucking Jonathan Groff talk about it, and he was like, It's such a such a it's ahead of its time. Powerful, it's not it's but I guess if you're doing it though, like obviously, like especially like as a theater person, like who actively is an act like who is an actor. Um like I I imagine sorry, I just watched it. What the fuck? Um uh I imag I don't know. I am I people people end up getting like a a different relationship with the characters than we ever will.
SPEAKER_04That's fair.
SPEAKER_03You know, so like I can imagine, especially like because he was when I was a when I was like listening to him talk about it, uh it was a lot of like you know, I the the lady that's in it, um I don't remember her name. She was in 21 Chump Street 21 Chump Street. Um they are like longtime friends, yeah. So like it's a very like it was like a very emotional moment for him. So like I can totally see that. Um I just yeah, I just didn't care about it.
SPEAKER_04I just didn't connect with it as much. I thought it was like again, I thought it was fun. Yeah. I watched it and was like, yeah, old friends I think is a great song. I think it's a great number. Everything else was just kind of like, yeah, this is a musical.
SPEAKER_03The only other musical that I know that does like a different timing is Last Five Years, um which is incredible.
SPEAKER_04Love last five years. So another example though of me, I I only will listen to the movie version.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, I can see that.
SPEAKER_04I don't I won't listen to the the original's fine.
SPEAKER_03Um I used to listen to the original more, but it uh there's certain things.
SPEAKER_04You got Jeremy Jordan in there.
SPEAKER_03Jeremy Jordan's in there. Dude, this is not a good dream. I am here inside the cream. Jeez. I just cut it off at cream.
SPEAKER_04Do you guys know that?
SPEAKER_03We guys know about big cat.
SPEAKER_04What the fuck y'all know about big cat, dude? The only song I've heard from them.
SPEAKER_03Yes, it's Jeremy Jordan.
SPEAKER_04Oh man, I love them. Get him in something right now. Bring back falsettos and put them in there.
SPEAKER_03Bring my falsettos, put them in there. Christian Burl can be there too.
SPEAKER_04Christian Burrell can be there again.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Yeah, we can all be there. I'll be there.
SPEAKER_04I'll be there.
SPEAKER_03I'll be there. I love falsettes.
SPEAKER_04It's great. That one fucked me out. That was not okay.
SPEAKER_03Gotta rewatch it soon.
SPEAKER_04That was another one, just on a whim. We're like, oh, this one falsettos. I didn't know anything about it going in.
SPEAKER_03I only know musical that makes you want to cry and kiss yourself.
SPEAKER_04It's tough, man.
SPEAKER_03I only know those kinds of musicals.
SPEAKER_04I'm sitting here going, uh uh describe getting a musical described to you as a bunch of kids die on a roller coaster. And I'm like, dude, that sounds crazy. It's the wonderful thing.
SPEAKER_03Just because it's like Final Destination 3.
SPEAKER_04And then she's fucking there singing about Sugar Cloud, and I'm fucking, I'm sobbing. I'm in hysterics.
SPEAKER_03I'm just I'm dead on the floor.
SPEAKER_04It's not okay.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, that's fair.
SPEAKER_04What do you think of these chairs? Are they comfortable with? I think they're fine.
SPEAKER_03Especially for like what, like an hour and a half to two hours.
SPEAKER_04An hour at the most. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03How long have we been sitting here for?
SPEAKER_0436 minutes.
SPEAKER_03Oh, that's not bad.
SPEAKER_04Were you in a rush to get out of here? No, I just I much fucking longer I have to. Yeah, yeah. Oh my fucking god. I'm ready to throw this game out of the goddamn house. Let me tell you. Alright?
SPEAKER_03It's fun.
SPEAKER_04No, it's fine.
SPEAKER_03To be fair, I now I'm at a point where like I I have got I've beaten the story mode. So like Did you beat the story? I did. Okay. So that I could get certain things that would make building easier. Yeah. Um so I'm a little bit less like I need to be playing it all the time. Yeah, like it's still fun and I'm still gonna do stuff with it. Um, but I I feel less like I have to be on it all the time.
SPEAKER_04Now at the point where there's no like end goal.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Yeah. Like there is, but yeah, it's it's it's a lot less like I I can actually just like take my time and have fun with it. Which like I was having fun with it before. I'm actually kind of bummed that I like blasted my way through the story mode a little bit because I tend to do that. Um, but again, it helps with like the bigger builds and stuff.
SPEAKER_04Well, catch catch me replay the story and catch me up online so I can just do builds. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, this is true.
SPEAKER_04I played for like two days and not even I think four hours.
SPEAKER_03I think if we looked at your Nintendo Switch online account, it would say three hours.
SPEAKER_04We would have a coupon for a free return. Yeah. I just I think I'm realizing it's just not my kind of game. Cause I like a, you know, I fucking I've probably played Tears of the Kingdom for 200 hours. So I like a game where there's no goal, but I think when it's like go do whatever you want, I think what I want is to go explore and fight and find treasure.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, and like I think you would like other new poke like actual Pokemon games more. Like I feel like you might like ZA or like Arceus. Um I just heard they're made for like two years. They're baby game for babies now, though.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and you is the real problem. We have a we have an issue in the house where Lee unfortunately don't believe I like video games because I get mad at them. But that means I do. Well, one thing we have to learn is that that means I I do like it because I care. If I give up on a game, that's how you truly know I don't care. If I'm just like, I want to fucking play bullshit.
SPEAKER_03Um but yeah, unfortunately they only make baby games for babies now.
SPEAKER_04Um Yeah. Well, I've been playing Bowler's Gate anyway.
SPEAKER_03Oh, you haven't been doing that either.
SPEAKER_04Well, I lost four hours of progress. I did. My my main character died, and I didn't know that could happen. Well, like I knew it could obviously you can die, but like my main character was split from the group and then died, and then it just shifted me to the other party, and I had no idea how to get to her. And I I I was running around, I couldn't figure it out, and I texted my friends who have also played Baldur's Gate, and it was basically like, Yeah, I think you might be like hardlocked. When did that happen?
SPEAKER_03When I went the other day, like when when I when you were home?
SPEAKER_04Uh no, you were there for it. It was when I went and uh I talked to like the goblin lady and then she took me to jail. Yeah, and then a guy fucking killed me, and it was just like figure it out.
SPEAKER_03Well, yeah, and then because then you went back and you I remember that because you went back and you were like, I have to do this whole fucking thing again.
SPEAKER_04And I was like, I need it.
SPEAKER_03It didn't seem like that, it wasn't like four hours, was it?
SPEAKER_04It was it was a couple hours. Oh it was like before I had done it was before I'd done the fight where I got my ass kicked. No, no, it was after that, but it was when I did the goblin place where like I got my shit rocked for 45 minutes and then went back, redid it, and then came back and I won. Yeah, it was before that. Oh I have to do that.
SPEAKER_03Because you hadn't saved enough after that.
SPEAKER_04It's my fault. I had been doing well enough and only dying in combat that just restarts combat encounters. So like I hadn't died in the story. Yeah. So I didn't know I should have been rotating my saves more frequently.
SPEAKER_03So I know as a person who frequently rotates saves. Yeah, but usually it's at the same time. You're rotating saves in like mist.
SPEAKER_04Like I we're you never know. You can get hardlocked in mist, can't you?
SPEAKER_03I think you could get hardlocked in well, yes, but like yeah. You get it's uh you it's easier to get hardlocked in like Riven, I think, too.
SPEAKER_04We gotta play Riven.
unknownI know.
SPEAKER_03It's really hard. It is really hard. It's a Riven is mean.
SPEAKER_04We did the we unfortunately we did a playthrough of Mist on the channel coffin drop.com slash YouTube slash coffin drop. Uh and uh we unfortunately ended up having to do the thing I don't like, which is just me playing and you holding a walkthrough open and telling me exactly what you're doing. Yeah, with those dumbass tree jungle, we got stuck.
SPEAKER_03Oh, because I've never been good at that one. Yeah, that's true.
SPEAKER_04I we didn't do it for the whole thing, but for that part specifically.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, well, and also like I yeah, there was a lot of things that like I would change. I think Riven will be better because like I have played Riven, but I will probably have to have a walked around for that too. Um but uh because it's there's there's like the first puzzle is like mean as hell.
SPEAKER_04Um yeah, isn't like noise-based or something.
SPEAKER_03No, there's another one that is. Um sorry, that one's different. Um no, it's just like fucking what the fuck do you mean kind of puzzle? Uh but I feel like in Mist, like like watching it back, I do a lot of like, well, try this. When like you could just fucking figure it out.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, that is true.
SPEAKER_03Uh it's just because I could play Mist with my eyes closed. Yeah. I've played it 400 times.
SPEAKER_04So you know me, I'm terrible. I one of the things about running a Let's Play channel with someone is I've had to slowly try and get better at just watching someone play a video game and it not make my skin hurt.
SPEAKER_03So you know, yeah.
SPEAKER_04Cause even when when you're technically doing the right thing, if it's not how I would do it, I'm like re-animal too. Re-animal was re-animal was so fun though.
SPEAKER_03Reanimal is fun. I have fun with reanimal. I cannot believe that we didn't get any more hats than we did. Apparently, there's a fucking thousand of them.
SPEAKER_04We got three hats and then it never gave us another hat.
SPEAKER_03I never got another hat. I was like, how how much more could I possibly explore?
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03But it was really fun, though. It was very short, but it was good. Yeah, that's the point, I think. Maybe trying to play it again and find them.
SPEAKER_04But it was a lot of fun. We just bought it one night and we were just like, let's just fucking play it. Like it won't even be content. Let's just play it. Like, would it have made good content? Yeah, yeah. I think halfway through playing it we realized fuck this would have been a killer stream, but yeah. But it's hard to think of it like in the time well and it cued us into now maybe like finding more games like that to stream, but I think it was just fun to experience.
SPEAKER_03I think it takes two is probably gonna be a good one to do, uh, which I feel like we have.
SPEAKER_04I do, I own it.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, yeah. On Steam, right?
SPEAKER_04Yes, yeah, and on I think I own it on PlayStation and on PlayStation. Because it was one of the free games own it forever.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Um I think we'll fucking see because they took Kina away from me. Honestly, Sony, fuck you. I've had enough. The whole thing with the plus is supposed to be like if you download it while you have plus, you have it forever. Even if you delete it, you still have the file. That's how it's supposed to work. And then I went to play Kina because they announced the next one, and I was like, Oh, I gotta finish that. I never finished.
SPEAKER_03I wonder I always assumed because I feel like the way that you say it is oh, if you downloaded it when you had it and then you cancel your subscription, you can still play it. But I'm no, it's if you don't cancel your subscription. Oh, okay. But if you've I think we had canceled our subscription, I wasn't.
SPEAKER_04Did we?
SPEAKER_03Yeah. So so I think maybe maybe just at that point, like because there are other ones, but I think maybe they took it off.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, probably. Um well because they want people to buy it now because they're making another one, exactly. So they should spend $30 in the game.
SPEAKER_03So we're just gonna go to fucking GameStop, they'll have it for $11. It's fine. That's true. I almost had a free copy. Why? Um, do you remember the lady that used to live in the house with me and my mom before you moved in? Yeah. Um, she had it and she was letting me borrow it for some reason. And then when she had to move, she asked for it back. So damn. Or I had like given it back to her or something because I didn't want to play it. I didn't care about it.
SPEAKER_04It's fun, it's like a PS2 game. But now.
SPEAKER_03And that it makes sense kind of why I didn't really care about it. You didn't play them. I don't yeah, I didn't really know that.
SPEAKER_04You had a DS. When you were like 17.
SPEAKER_03No.
SPEAKER_04When did you get a DS?
SPEAKER_03When I was like 10.
SPEAKER_04Oh, I thought it was a long longer after that.
SPEAKER_03No, I my first like home console was when I was older. My first home console was actually when I was about 19. What did you get? I bought from off of my friend, I bought an Xbox 360 for $60. Um, I was like 18, yeah, 18 or 19. Um, and I was in like so 2017-2018, I was playing my Xbox 360 on a CRT still for some reason. Yeah. Um and it looked like shit. It was awesome. That was how I played uh Assassin's Creed, the the Ezio trilogy specifically. Um, and then at some point I bought a new my bought myself a new TV.
SPEAKER_04Um did you have a every like 20-year-old's first TV where it was like a 19-inch flat screen. Yeah, I was that.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, not not that you guys can see it, but uh yeah, it's literally I'm surprised that's not my first one. It could have been that one. That was my uh mine was a Roku though. Or no, mine was a TLC, TCL or whatever.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, it's good. You go to Walmart, they're like fucking $20.
SPEAKER_03They're like $20. Well, and then that was also so when I bought so when I bought my my next TV, I did buy like another Roku, and then it was um I bought a Roku and I had a PS4, and I had specifically I actually specifically had bought a PS4 for Horizon Zero Dawn. Um and then I didn't I didn't really play it a lot. Um I did play a lot of it, but I I got to a certain point. It's a great game. Yeah, it's a good game.
SPEAKER_04I never beat it twice, but you know, like I started it twice and got to the same point and was like it's fucking so long.
SPEAKER_03Uh and then I and then I bought my first like it was like uh what's the one how big would you say that the one we have in the room is the the one that we have mounted.
SPEAKER_04Oh probably like 32, 32 to 38.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, somewhere 35 and 35 inch TV. Yeah, I bought that. Uh, and that was my first like big purchase. That was like $300. Yeah, it was awesome.
SPEAKER_04And now we have dumb ass big TV.
SPEAKER_03I have stupid ass big TV that's also about $400.
SPEAKER_04We moved into this apartment the first thing when we set up our thing. I was like, I really eventually want a fucking big TV.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, and we got it took a while when you got your tax return.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Yeah.
SPEAKER_04Now we have stupid ass. But like big TV to the point where like it could not be bigger. No, it wouldn't fit in here.
SPEAKER_03No, and like like it's I think it's a good size. Yeah, it looks like I don't need a bigger TV.
SPEAKER_04Now we get a house. 75.
SPEAKER_0375 maybe.
SPEAKER_04Seems about right.
SPEAKER_0375 seems okay. I'm scared of a hundred.
SPEAKER_04I can't.
SPEAKER_03I don't think it'll look like I also don't want to move it.
SPEAKER_04No.
SPEAKER_03I'm just scared. I'm like, fuck, we might as well sell that TV when we move, so I don't have to move it. I just buy a new one.
SPEAKER_04Get a different one, get it delivered. That's fair.
SPEAKER_03I don't we don't have a box for it.
SPEAKER_04That's not fitting in the back of a cab.
SPEAKER_03No, no, yeah, it fit it fit in the back of the fucking CRV when I bought it barely. Love it. Um we'll see. But uh yeah. Alright. That would be nice. Honestly, that might be like depending on when we move, we might just have might just get a new TV. Just buy a new TV. Just buy a new TV. I listen, we are a little irresponsible with money, but not in a terrible way. No, it's fine. It's fine.
SPEAKER_04Just like buying toys and so it's fine.
SPEAKER_03Don't worry. I have 17,000 handhelds.
SPEAKER_04I buy toys from Japan, and sometimes they come and they're significantly smaller.
SPEAKER_03They're about a size of a watch.
SPEAKER_04One of them is a watch. No, no, no.
SPEAKER_03Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_04It was like $100, but it was like $120. But isn't good shape.
SPEAKER_01It's yeah, it's not poorly made.
SPEAKER_04It's just a fucking toy for children. It's plastic. So like, but it's a collector's item. It's from the 90s.
SPEAKER_03There you go, it's fine.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, it's fine. And it's on my shelf and it looks kind of cute.
SPEAKER_03Honestly, I think it's better that it still fits on a smaller shelf.
SPEAKER_04Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Like I'm I it wasn't yeah. Is it? It's literally like this big.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, in the f I I because it it's a briefcase. Yeah. It's from it's from Gogo 5, which is the Sentai equivalent to Lightspeed Rescue Power Rangers. In if you didn't know, in case you were wondering. If you even care. If you even care. It's a briefcase, and then it's got a their V-Lancer gun, which in the show is a fucking this big like rifle. It's got the Morpher, which is a train that sits on your wrist, and then it's the Gogo 5 badge. And so I was expecting a fucking like a fucking haliburton. And then I walk up to my grandma to because I get my packages over house, and she goes, Here you go. And it's like it's like this big. And I opened it.
SPEAKER_03Well, because I feel like I feel like before it even arrived, you had looked at another picture and went, I think this is gonna be smaller than I thought it was. Did I? Yeah. But like I think that even that I think maybe you thought it was gonna be like half the size.
SPEAKER_04Because the I also bought the titanium ranger's blaster.
SPEAKER_03And it's very small.
SPEAKER_04Titanium Ranger being the sixth ranger from Gogo 5, which is the predecessor to Lightspeed Rescue, if you even care.
SPEAKER_03Is that the one is that the one with the snake?
SPEAKER_04Yes.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, that's fucking crazy.
SPEAKER_04Where he has his little snake tattoo. If you even care. If you even care, by the way. And Ryan being the titanium ranger. And his blaster is a fucking hand axe that then the axe flips down into a gun. And I was like, need that. That was like my one of my childhood dreams. It's smaller than it is in the show because he's an adult man, but it still fits like a pistol in my hand. Is it like it's like inbox under a bunch of stuff, but like it fits in my hand like a gun. Like it looks like and it makes a bunch of noise. That that's the other thing. This one doesn't make noise.
SPEAKER_02Doesn't have like batteries or anything?
SPEAKER_04Yeah, it's just plastic. It look it felt like feel like I bought it from Denios. Yeah, like it's it's not Denios is a is a local farmer's market in which I would buy toys from Super Sentai, which is the predecessor to Power Rangers and Power Rangers.
SPEAKER_03It's fucking really gone to shit. I hate Denios.
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Um, well, I guess we knew this time was coming. I have a question for you. It's a new segment on the show here on Thanks for Stopping by the podcast. I've been thinking of something to do at the end. This whole thing, by the way, this whole relaunch has basically just been I've been watching a lot of Caleb Heron's So True, because he's my favorite comedian. And I was like, I want to do how his show is like. And so I've always really wanted like a reoccurring thing at the end, and I like just a I don't want to make guests play like a fucking game. I think that's uh a little too much.
SPEAKER_03So I just play a round of Super Mario for the NES or whatever came out on.
SPEAKER_04If you're listening in your car. Um, but I was thinking about questions, and one of the things I'm trying to do in my real life is consume more media in general that like are less so consume more media, but more so like push myself to consume things out of my my normal not boundaries, but like what I would normally consume. Because I think so like we talked about earlier, sometimes I'm very quick to just go, I don't want to watch that, I don't want to do that, I don't want to do that shit, and then I miss out on potentially great stuff. And so the new question I'm asking, and you've been warned, no one else has, but um the new question I'm gonna ask everybody is it if there was one what you would say your most underrated piece of media is could be a movie, a TV show, a song, a fucking chip flavor. Just like what's an underrated piece of media to you?
SPEAKER_03Well, so unfortunately we live together. Yeah. So anything that I have ever thought was underrated, I have already either gotten you into, so like sold you on it, or whatever. So I'm just going to use Mist, the video game.
SPEAKER_05Yeah.
SPEAKER_03It's hard to say that it's underrated because it was one of the top-selling video games at the time, uh, like PC games at the time. Yeah. But now not as many people know about it, I feel like. So uh I guess technically I could tell you to get into Riven. Yeah, that's true. Riven is the sequel to Mist. Um and it's it's a puzzle game, in case anybody doesn't know what Mist is, most of you. Mist and Riven are puzzle games, and they're cool and they're fun, and I played just the fucking worst version of it when I was a kid, which is the DS part of it. It's so bad. Um and yeah, it's mean as fuck. Maybe we'll see you play it at some point soon-ish. Yeah. Yeah. I want to.
SPEAKER_04Did we find did we find Mist on the DS? I know we found it on the 3DS.
SPEAKER_03I have not found it on the DS yet.
SPEAKER_04On the 3DS is just as bad though. Yeah. We do a lot of retro game shows, and we've been looking for a DS copy of Windows.
SPEAKER_03Well, it was, it was so that one, the 3DS one, we actually didn't find it at a show. We found it at Computer Booter.
SPEAKER_04Was that a computer? Computer booter. Computer booter. Great sword.
SPEAKER_03Um yeah, I will say also, okay, this is actually another thing, and it's not technically underrated, but something that I keep trying to get you into. Fucking Warrior Cats. Please. I'm begging. I'm begging you. I need you at least the first arc of Warrior. Warrior.
