[Assistant] Well, I handled the repair and everything and then he, he replied, uh, if you could give that back to me, that'd be great. And then I went, okay, fine. Well, so I went out and bought an Elite. Remember that? When it was, even that was less confusing than the X and S and everything in between. Yeah. It was Elite.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I don't, I guess right now because yeaah, I feel like I'm more focused on PC and I guess phone these days and Switch maybe. Uhm, I'm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not in a rush to buy the new consoles. I don't know how you- I was actually kinda surprised at least that you were in a rush to buy the PS5. I was surprised too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Will I finally beat Shadow of the Colossus when it comes to PS5? I wonder. I keep getting a little further with every generation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Start on PS2, way too chunky for me. PS3 played a little bit better. PS4 got pretty far. I think, I think PS5 is my year. I'm gonna finally do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, how is it, oh yeaah, I remember you guys weren't crazy about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I read an interesting thing, uh, the super giant guys were doing an AMA and they were talking about, someone asked them if Pyre was ever going to come to Switch. Uh, that's a game that I've been wanting to buy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I, I've heard nothing but good things and I've been meaning to play it, but that's like, that's like a perfect switch game, right? Like you play on the go. And I believe it was, uh, Greg Savin said like, Oh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We, we have been putting so much work into Hades, we don't have the bandwidth to do that, and the game was created before the Switch was even announced, so the amount of work they would have to do to port it doesn't really make sense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm one of those people who are like, please, please port it. That'd be fun to play on the go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think we were there. I think they announced Psychonauts too the same day as Hades.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Except Pages was like, it's out now, it's early access, which was a first for them for Supergiant. And it harkened more kind of back to Bastion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the first game they put out, which I mean, all their games have been fantastic. I just, I couldn't get into Transistor. Uh, I don't, I, there's something I couldn't get over, like the interface confused the hell out of me, but it's a game I want to pick back up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, there's a mafia reboot coming somewhere. Crisis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you could with a steam controller and steam tv and steam box. Except, yeaah, James is looking at his watch. Actually, there is a small


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Game like that, that is perfect for the subject we're talking about. But first, a quick word.

[Assistant] And we're back. Can you guys guess the indie darling of this year? I know you're going to say Fall Guys, but it's not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, you've read my mind and the script I sent you, but, uh, yes, we can have like small games that are, uh, exceeding expectations among us, uh, had a peak player count on Steam of 388,000 players, which is a record.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, uh, it made it number three. The number three game on Steam. The game is two years old, by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it just, it hit all the right check marks at the right time. Uh, I actually don't know the streamer's name, but it was like wildfire. It was like a gender reveal party essentially, where like just it hit at the right time. People said that's great. And then as we've seen in the streaming community, it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's playing what? I'm playing it now. And it just, it just spreads around and you know, that's how PUBG essentially got started. Everyone's at home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and it is also free on mobile, which I was unaware of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's five dollars on Steam, but uhm, you can play it on your phone for free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's just nice. It's good to see this stuff. Uhm, and to, to your point, uh, James, they're, they actually, they did try doing that whole documentary team thing. It's just tough because the last time we did it was for Agent and that, that guy is still filming the documentary. He's, he's like Tom Hanks in Terminal. He's stuck. You never know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was the game that like, we, it was like the avatar of video games. Like, this is going to succeed because we're going to make it succeed. It was, it felt like shoved down your throat of like, Evolve is going to be the biggest, best it's going to be. Esports is this, and everyone played it, got tired of it, and then moved on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That reminds me too, when James and I playtested Lawbreakers. Yeaah. And there was like a glitch that some of the playtesters were exploiting and they were just murdering us left and right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and they're just laughing, like, ha ha ha, having a great time, like, I'm glad you're enjoying this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For those who were not born in the last 40 years, what is Cobra Kai, Elise?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's kinda similar, it's similar but way different than, uh, the way I used to consume Dragon Ball Z as a kid. Which it was, it was on TV, they just played the same season over and over. And then I had that one friend who goes, you know, if you go to Suncoast and spend $65 on some VHS tapes, you could see what happens next.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. No, no, that's what I mean. And then it was like, well, I'll just wait for it to come to Cartoon Network. And that's like the Netflix equivalent where like, you know, you could watch Cobra Kai, like, oh, how do I do it? You sign up for YouTube, I'm leaving.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is, this is why when the world becomes a totalitarian regime, we're just going to be the sheep who let it come over because we're just this lazy. We just go, I, I don't want to go through the, I don't want to do the work. Just give it to me. And then next thing you know, we're.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That got real, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to go that way. Oh god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, actually, I was trying to do a segue earlier and it just came off terrible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You want Chinese, they want pizza, and someone is always craving some fro-yo. There's something for everyone on DoorDash. Continue supporting restaurants in your community safely. There are thousands of restaurants open for delivery on DoorDash that need your patronage now.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dude Soup. Don't forget that's Dude Soup for $5 off your first order with DoorDash. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, and we're back. As you guys know, I like to do a little segment on the show every week when I host, uh, trying to get through a little song called We Didn't Start the Fire by Billy Joel where he helps teach us some history. This week, I got a little graphic to roll us in. Take it away, Nick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a lot of great photos of Billy Joel current day at concerts. He's very expressive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he goes, I want the, only the people in the nosebleeds to sit in the front row and make sure they're, uh, volumptuous women.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's Billy, Billy, we could do a whole episode on Billy Joel one of these days, but today we're talking about the third topic in the seminal song, We Didn't Start the Fire, or I call it his 1980s opus, where he mentions Red China. Do you guys know what Red China is a reference to? Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You win this round of Billy Joel teaches history. I wish this was actual game show because it would have an end date.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Harry Truman, Doris Day. Yeah, and that's gonna be Red China, and then next in five weeks will be Johnny Ray.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, uh, I know very little. Actually, I did watch a bit of a documentary for this one. There's a two-part, uh, series I'll link below. Uhm, that was like, it came out during the regime change in China. I was like, hey, that's China taking over all these people over here in Hong Kong, the free state. And I go, that's what a different time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, but yeaah, so James is correct, uh, communists took control of China after a struggle, uh, started before World War II and renamed the country the People's Republic of China. It was called Red China by the US to indicate that they were commies.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, uh, and we, we here in the US don't like those stinking commies because I'd rather be dead than red. As they said, there's a lot of, you know, nationalism going on at this time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, that is a reference to Chairman Mao, the leader of the, uh, People's Republic of China. Uh, according to Chinese lore, he's still alive and well and haunts you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and then Red China actually entered the Korean War in the 1950s when it looked like the UN forces would defeat communists in North Korea. Uh, that's, that's about, those are the bullet points of the history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, at the time they were 700 million people deep. Uh, you know, a low, a low number for the time. I think we're over a billion now. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't, yeah, god, yeah, I always wondered that. Remember the film Frighteners?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's more for the audience, but the whole point, right, for, uh, son of Busey's, uh, what was his name? Jake Busey's thing was, if I kill the most people, I become the Grim Reaper. But then I thought of Stalin and Mao and Hitler and you go, you got a lot, like, come on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I guess my child brain, the way it put it together was that when you as a serial killer rack up the most kills, you get to become this Grim Reaper thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it, is it really hunting if you're in a tree with a sniper rifle? You know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like covered in like a parka or whatever or a ghillie suit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My argument for hunting is if you're going to hunt, you should be dropped in the middle of the forest with nothing but a small knife and no shirt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but it's, it's a bear market out there and you'll have to, yeah, what is it? Oh, I already forgot. If it's brown, lie down. If it's black, attack. Yeah, that's for snakes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we went to, uh, uh, Jess and I went over, we did, um, like a hike over the weekend. We stopped in Riverside to, uh, grab some food and there's this arcade there and they had, they just put all their machines outside. So people are outside in mass playing games. Um, but the one that stuck out to me was the Terminator Salvation gun game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's just, it's weird because there's still relics of Terminator Salvation around, like for the longest time I think Magic Mountain had that roller coaster, like based on the hit film, Terminator, the film we hope is a hit, Terminator Salvation, except two more have come out since then and they just keep getting worse, so I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the roller coaster persists, and so does the arcade machine. I can't forget, because I'm forever reminded, through mixed media. Uh, which is our lesson that we want to leave you with here today. I want to thank you guys for being here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought 3 was good. Alright, that's the end of our show. Thank you for watching and listening, everybody. Uhm, we got some cool stuff coming out this week on the channel, please check it out. This is uh, Pacify, James' favorite game. Ooh, with Brandon. Brandon comes back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] James, uh, wax is poetic about Psychonauts, uh, his favorite game. He's got a sequel, I hear, that's coming out eventually. And then, uh, we asked the question, will Spellbreak save the Battle Royale experience? The answer is no. We do terrible. It's really bad. I recommend maybe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'll never find it. That's fine. Thank you to our first members and everyone who's watching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey everyone, welcome to Dude Soup today. Do you have somewhere to be?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today we're talking about all the great games that we're playing right now and also getting into a few Halloween horror recommendations. Welcome to Jutsu.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Funhouse fans, long time, short time viewers, I'm Elise. I'm James.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Changes happening at the Funhaus channel in the near...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And upcoming feature, uh, because Adam is no longer working with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, we won't be delving into the details of that, uh, look it up online. If you want to know, uh, there are people who were respecting their privacy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uh, lots of people are affected in this, so we're not going to be discussing it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You paid him for that? It's not just the James and Elise show today, because we're also joined by John Smith.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the keys. Hello and welcome to hell. Something a little bit different today, John's gonna be playing Hades while we're chatting and then Alana will be pointing at John's screen while he's playing Hades. While we're chatting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, but yeaah, we're just doing something a bit casual and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kinda harkens back to dude soups of yore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I guess for audio listeners especially that don't know what this game is, do you guys want to describe Hades?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna join anything that you would disagree with in James's description or ad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the big, the big meme talk I've been seeing online is everyone gushing over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I haven't played this game, but I hear it spoken about a lot and it always feels very abstract to me because the way it's described is in terms of runs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they're also, uh, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The big twitch hotness, or the kind of the games that everybody's into right now, I feel so bad for Fall Guys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, among us is like, well, if you think about it, like push the button in the Jackbox pack, where you're essentially sort of playing a similar thing, it's like a werewolf-esque, you know, who is, who is the secret alien.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, that's more of like a party game. It's very much a party game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remember like, just digging through steam, always looking and looking for games and seeing among us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But whenever I was looking for multiplayer games, it would always be there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love, I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for those developers when this game started taking off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel bad for whichever game gets displaced. Like I was saying with ball guys, I, uh, I love the Cinderella story of Among Us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Real chunky. We're gonna get to the bottom of this issue, but first a word from our sponsor. Everyday there's some new news story about how technology is permeating, creeping into our private lives. You know, hey Siri, here's my social security number. That kind of stuff. You know, private conversations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All that is getting listened to and available to countless human reviewers. It's not just Apple, it's Facebook, Google, Amazon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone's under fire for this. I don't know about you, but I only thought of someone sitting in an office listening in on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is. Anyway, that's why I use ExpressVPN to secure all my devices. It encrypts and anonymizes all of your data to keep it hidden from outside snoops. ExpressVPN is so easy to use. You just fire up the app, tap one button and you're protected. You can go online and search ExpressVPN. It's the number one rated VPN provider on the market. So trust us, you probably won't find better. Take action and protect yourself like we did with ExpressVPN.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can use our special link expressvpn.com slash dude right now and claim an extra three months of ExpressVPN for free. So support the show and protect yourself in doing so. We appreciate it and appreciate you. That's expressvpn.com slash dude for three extra free months for free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've never done it. I really enjoy when we all play together. It's a lot of fun. But then we all do have like, I feel like preconceived biases, like I always accuse James and he, it's usually right though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, and the fact that you can be killed and still be an active participant is something that I really love.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In games we played in silence the other day which is a bit of a dead by daylight clone and when you get killed you become a mouse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I really, really like that that's an aspect. I also like that it's not asymmetrical, which I like the asymmetrical stuff, but I do all- I never want to be the person that is playing the villain and I always feel bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I get scared when I, even though I'm the, the, like, the threat, I just, because I'm alone, I start to get like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were the first company to sell premium wireless service online only and now Mint Mobile is introducing their unlimited data plan for just 30 bucks a month. Let that sink in for a minute. That's unlimited.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How much is your soon to be ex-wireless provider charging you? I can tell you from our own John Smith, he switched to Mint Mobile and ended up saving $75 a month.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And his wireless quality didn't change at all. It's great for him. Uh, if you're ready to switch to a different, you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Provider, Mint Mobile offers premium unlimited plans for just 30 bucks as I mentioned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can go online only and eliminate the traditional cost of retail and then Mint Mobile will pass those savings on to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All plans come with unlimited talk and text plus high speed data delivered on the nation's largest 5G network. You can use your own phone with Mint Mobile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and keep your same phone number along with any existing contacts, so no messy transition between phones. And if you're not 100% satisfied, Mint Mobile has you covered with their seven day money back guarantee.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can break up with big wireless and switch, switch to make mobile's premium and unlimited data plan for 30 bucks a month.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To get your new unlimited wireless plan for just $30, as I said, and get the plan shipped to your door for free, go to mintmobile.com slash dude. That's mintmobile.com slash dude.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean, recently explained to me that Twice's fans are called Wands, and I love that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But this is what happens when there are games that I'm genuinely interested in, that I bring, is that they just get mocked because of the origin, like for example,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My expectation was that if Mulan performed to a certain point that Disney would release Black Widow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We need a positive thing here, so we're gonna take word from our sponsor right now. Right now you can continue supporting all those great restaurants in your community safely. Thousands of them that are available for delivery on DoorDash. They need your patronage now more than ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, you've counted on them in the past, I know I have. Okay, and so they're counting on you now, uh, while dining rooms are closed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone's still open for delivery with DoorDash. It's the app that brings you food you're craving right now to your door. Ordering is so easy, you just open the DoorDash app, choose what you want to eat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, there are over 300,000 partners in the US, Puerto Rico, Canada, Australia,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can support your local go-tos or choose from your favorite restaurants like Chipotle, Wendy's, the Cheesecake Factory. Know what I'm sayin'?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Many of your favorite local restaurants are still open, so please, please, uh, eat local too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right now our listeners can get $5 off and zero delivery fees on their first order of $15 or more when you download the DoorDash app and enter code DUDESOUP. That's $5 off your order and zero delivery fees on your first order when you download the DoorDash app in the App Store and enter code DUDESOUP. Don't forget, I know you won't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause you're probably opening the app right now and you're ordering. That's code D-U-D-E-S-O-U-P for $5 off your first order with DoorDash. Thank you DoorDash. Are you doing the Charlie Brown?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I liked it when the original released, but honestly playing locally, doing that goose co-op and getting up to shenanigans and hijinks with someone else is great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are definitely moments where you're like, I'm gonna go be a goose over here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just looked at the art and it's very, it's very sterile. It's super sterile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That made me think of, ugh, I can't think of it, but there's a text-based horror game


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like going into playing, oh, Stories Untold. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which, I think it's three different text-based horror games, and going in to play the first one I was like, pfft, this isn't gonna be scary, but it definitely did creep me out quite a bit. Uh, I played it at night, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it did kinda give me the willies. My recommendation was just gonna be a game that maybe you've heard of, but I'm still gonna push it because I feel like it might be outside of some people's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Typical genres, so you don't necessarily gravitate toward it, but oxen free. It's just always to me so, so great because the atmosphere is what sells that game. I mean, I like the story and the characters a lot, but that game in a very kind of simple mechanic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, perfect for this time of year too. And it's on so many platforms if you want to just curl up in bed on your Switch and play it. Yeah, it's a good one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well thank you guys so much for joining for this dude soup. Uhm, we've got Phasmophobia coming to the channel this weekend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Awesome. Yeah, so my channel is pretty much just, I want to say all consumer technology. I do a lot of tech reviews, but the main focus is like gaming tech. So like headset reviews, keyboard reviews, anything like PC gaming, console gaming, even like setup related stuff. I try to kind of get it all into the channel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And do anything focused on that. The gaming audience. But not gameplay, really.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was actually going to see if you guys remembered that, because yeaah, I first started my channel just trying to do gameplay, and I reached out to you James, probably in like 2013 or 2014 to do a voiceover, like send me some clips, I didn't know if you remember that or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you hooked me up. So I was doing uhm, back when like the UFC videos were first, or like the UFC games, I like imported all your guys' face into the UFC games and made you guys fight each other, and then I also did like a taunt versus, you know, his dad, and you sent me some voiceovers for that. So that, and that was like seven years ago at this point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Learned that I was more into like the tech side of things and there was more of like an audience for, cause gaming, even back then when I started doing stuff in like 2015 is when I really migrated from gaming to tech. Uhm, it was just too saturated for gaming and I know I wasn't gonna do anything good in the space anyways cause it was too late for me to get in the door if you will.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But yeah, in addition to the tech reviews, the cool tech under 50 series is probably like my most popular on the channel. I do room tour project every week, which is like showing off people's setups and going through all the gear and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's been going on for a while, but cooltech under 50 has definitely been like the number one in terms of, yeah, like people finding my channel and it getting recommended and stuff. So it's cool to hear that the algorithm is actually working in favor, even though it always feels like it's against it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it definitely helps get like inspiration for like new ideas in terms of like reconstructing the setup for the studio. And it's where I get a lot of submissions from for RimTour projects as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really? I don't know if it's like a regional thing, but yea, we have a few around us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so there's actually what I'm using right now to record this is a little, uh, like USB capture card. And I believe it's from a company called Blue AVH or something like that. I showed it off either a month or two ago on this series, but it's a $40 capture card.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I know like the Elgato ones are very popular, but they're even with like aftermarket sellers, they're anywhere from like two to $300 right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like I'm using like a 6K camera, even though it's like down sampled and stuff and it handles it just fine for 40 bucks compared to 200 and up. So when I showed this off, it like, it sold out like very quickly, but now they're getting more in. And I believe it's even marked down a bit. I think you can get this one for like 25 to 30.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is definitely like one of the better things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so a lot of times, especially lately because of everyone home with quarantine, the series is definitely doing a lot better because people are just home looking to buy some stuff. And within like the first two hours on the first day, usually like whatever that product in, if there's not like a lot in stock from a really big company, they will sell out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and what's unfortunate is now a lot of times if the, if the company doesn't have, you know, like a big reserve or a stock behind what's just available on Amazon, people will see the video a few days later, see that it's out of stock, but all those Cs at the, like the, the third party sellers are selling it for like twice the price, three times the price. So that, that's been happening a lot lately.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Elgato's been killing it lately because streaming, you know, it's been on the rise and all their products are just great for whether streaming, gaming, whatever. So yeah, they've been selling out a lot of stuff. I don't even know if their regular cam links are back in stock yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Buying stuff, trying to find the diamond in the rough. A lot of times it's mainly the rough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I just try to find things that like are cool that either like I know I would use or the audience would use and I try to switch it up like different genres each month. Like sometimes it'll be stuff for like cameras and that kind of tech or just like your PC stuff, different mice or headsets that people could use. It's just a lot of going through. People often say that like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't like it because it's sponsored, but like all that stuff in Quiltec 150, I buy. Because it's just me buying tons of stuff each month on Amazon, seeing what's worthy of showing off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, I do definitely get spoiled in that sense where, like, when something comes out that I would...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that I would have been excited about where then it's me looking more on like the reviewer side of things, trying to find the negatives and what's cool about it. And the one good thing about like having a tech channel is there's never not going to be new tech. You know, there's always going to be new sorts of headsets coming out and keyboards. So it's cool on that to see, you know, what is the new innovation and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And just how over the past two years, how quickly it can evolve. So it's definitely cool in that sense, but yeaah, I've definitely gotten more spoiled where I'm not as excited for some things as I am.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but this, I know we could possibly talk about it later, the Samsung Odyssey G9 monitor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I haven't just because of the fear of the algorithm and the unknown, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, I don't wanna, cause if a video does, again, even though the algorithm is so unknown, I don't wanna have a video like that come out that might hurt potential future viewers if it does like real low on day one, they don't push it out. All the conspiracy theories behind the algorithm where, you know, if the retention isn't high enough, they kind of like hide your next few videos, that kind of thing. So I haven't tried to venture out like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so I'm always in the camp of like, yeah, trying to upgrade to the next best thing or something new and fresh. Uh, but the one weird thing about a tech channel, and I guess it has to go along with, you know, buyer's remorse and stuff. And like, I never started a tech channel to do it full time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like if I show off a mouse, you know, that just came out and people buy that,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't always expect all my videos to like, you know, do well and to necessarily like get a lot of views because if someone is looking for a view on a mouse or a headset, they're looking to find out if they should buy that or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if they do, they're not going to necessarily come back a lot to the channel to, or even subscribe to want to see if there is a new mouse that they've just, you know, that came out after the one that they bought, that could potentially be better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's the one thing. It's like, I don't ever try to make a video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Four reviews were like in my head, I think it's going to go viral. I just try to do it for anybody who's just like, you know, stumbling upon the product itself, wants to check it out. And if they do choose to subscribe and they want to come back for more, that's great. But I don't know, we tried that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, the hubs will get you. There's a lot of products where you want to just buy it once, but you need a hub to make it work. I know Philips is like that with their lights and their light strips. It all goes through the hub and that's definitely.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, not really, I mean in terms of like me and upgrading my stuff, I bought this, it's the AT2020 from Audio Technica. I bought this when I first started doing YouTube, just like I said before as a gaming channel back in 2013. And I haven't upgraded this at all, like I've tested and reviewed tons of different mics, but I still go back to this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I mean, I think in one other way I could answer that is instead of trying to buy something new, um, especially in the keyboard community, I've kind of moved on to like building


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The keyboard that I want and like making it from scratch and there's a whole like keyboard community around that. So that's kind of been, I guess another way I can answer that is maybe not looking to upgrade, but just kind of building it to me and how I want it. So I don't have to upgrade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there's not a lot, I tried finding out like more info about it because I've been seeing a lot of comments about that on the video. Uhm, as far as I can tell, it's not necessarily like a panel issue. I think they were having something where part of the screen would tear off. Like I guess like during the unboxing or something like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As far as I know, I should be okay with this. Uhm, my unit is okay, but this was from a, like a third party PR company from Samsung. So it wasn't from them directly, it was from whoever they handled to like send out units. But yeah, it is crazy. Like I said before, I get in a lot of stuff and I am kind of jaded in that sense, but when I unboxed this and set it up, it was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is so overkill at the same time. It is so cool. Cause I can game with this new resolution, new aspect ratio, and it's, it's crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I don't know if it's the future because just getting into that price point is so much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know? You say you lost or? Oh, okay. I don't know if you lost to me. Okay. But yea, getting into this at the price. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think if this were to be any bigger, then you'd just be looking at one of the curved TVs that really didn't take off. But the thing about this is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since they, this is like their third generation, I think, of this monitor, so they've been improving it. And if they could just get that price down a bit, which I don't know if they can at all, it would definitely be, I think, more welcome, because it's the exact size of two 27-inch monitors side by side.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a lot of people use those dual monitors. So now you have that same exact aspect ratio essentially, but with no bezel in the middle, which makes it cool for obviously like gaming and stuff. If you don't want to have that right in the middle of your display.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, it's just, that's not a friendly entry tag for anybody.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and like I think these would be great for like a racing rig or any sort of like one of those like big gaming chairs that people have the screens attached to. I know it's a very small market, but it would be great for that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and like day trading and stuff, there's just so many uses to have this new aspect ratio.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, but yeaah, I mean if you could get more, you know, verticality to it, uhm, I still think you would be starting to look more on like the TV side of things that people could just buy, but it would definitely be crazy just to have a whole domed helmet of a display in front of you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this, this was shot on the side, so it looks a lot closer than it was, just because of like the angle that it's at. But yea, that could definitely be annoying for most games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's a 1000R curvature, which they say matches the curve of the human eye. I mean, I don't know much about that. It just sounds like marketing stuff. But apparently with the 1000R, I don't know if it was either a hundred of these all lined up in a circle or a thousand. But yeah, eventually it would make a circle. But I feel like kind of anything, if you keep going, it'll make a circle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, uhm, I, I've done like first looks and unboxings. I know when the Xbox One X came out, like I was sent that to check out and unbox for video, which is pretty cool. Uhm, I don't have any contact with Sony.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I probably won't be able to get hooked up on the PS5 sense. But yeah, I mean, in terms of still like showing off, uh, certain like accessories and peripherals for the console or for like controllers and stuff, it's definitely gonna be a fair game for the channel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With families with more than one, you know, sibling and stuff. Like, how are you gonna decide who to get the console for if that is the case?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you ever play it? Do you ever play it? I played it a lot when it first came out. Probably haven't touched it in like three or four years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought it would be free to play a lot earlier because it just had like, you know, that kind of hype around it in the community. I figured that would have been a good one. Especially when like, I know CSGO went free to play and all that stuff. I just thought that would have been a lot sooner, but uh, here we go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's tons of like car packs and I'm pretty sure even like certain skins for certain cars. I know I bought a car pack when I first started playing, which again haven't touched in how many years though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I used to love playing FIFA, like I was a big FIFA guy, so when I picked up Rocket League, I was like, alright, you know, same sorta concept here, but no, very different, and it wasn't for me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, and it is a shame that Mixer had to go down because, like I said, I know I only used it a few times, but the bitrate was just so much clearer than anything I was able to do on Twitch and stuff. And you see a lot of stuff now with all the big contracts that people are getting. So it's definitely a bummer that there couldn't be more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With uh, Logic now, signed uh, Twitch. Oh yeaah, I saw that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's gonna have like a big listening party, I think tonight, when he's gonna like, unveil the album and stuff, and a listening party. And then, I know like he's streaming stuff in the past, and he's a big gamer. But yea, the contracts are locking down the space.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and retracing even to begin with, especially with like, you know, the RTX games that were so limited, it didn't make the graphics cards worth it at that time. But I think the bigger technology that you can get with RTX cards is the DLSS, which is like kind of the new thing they're pushing. It's a deep learning super sampling.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it essentially, it, it makes it so the, the game is being used by this, like a, a different sort of AI, where it can upsample the game you're playing, so you can get better frames, essentially. So, say you're playing at, you know, 1080p and you're only getting, you know, a certain amount of,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You wanna be getting like 120, but you're barely hitting 60. You enable DLSS, and you can not only, uhm, supersample your game up a bit, and then...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty much, okay, from 1080 to like 4K, if you only have a 1080p monitor, you're not gonna notice the super sampling at all. So, it'll make it like a crisper image for you, but you can still get higher frames, and even if you wanted to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's supposedly supposed to take a lot of like computing power off of the GPU itself, which will open it up more so you know, be able to push it and get more frames and just computing power out of the GPU.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I know that's been the bigger hype as of recently is the DLSS and I think they just released DLSS 2.0 which is like the newer version of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I know a lot of the consoles, again, a lot of it was just like speculation and stuff, but it's supposed to be utilizing that and very similar technology to RTX even though they're using AMD cards. And I know Xbox at least. So that'll be good because I know with the consoles, they say it can do, you know, 8K or 4K 120.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, you know, we'll see. And a lot of that is going to be up sampled. So this should make that a lot more efficient and look better for the consumer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, with, in terms of like an actual CPU and stuff, AMD definitely has the advantage right now. After a lot of years of Intel having it. But Intel's definitely always had the edge in terms of GPUs. And even though, like I said, RTX wasn't really worth it in terms of the graphical advantage in game, which it really wasn't. It was just like shinier reflections and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, yeaah, they, they still are, they're gonna have that edge for a while just because their, their graphics cards have been used a lot more and not only just gaming, but a lot of like, you know, editing rigs and stuff with their, their Titan series and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All that. So, yeaah, this could be good if it's, again, a little bit cheaper, cause now everyone's gonna want to upgrade to a $1200 GPU when it's not gonna be that different, cause it's not really up to the graphics card, it's up to the developer and the games of how good it's gonna look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what's going to be the total graphical advantage you get over a new GPU?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, uhm, a lot of times with graphics cards you would have seen, especially this lineup, probably come out around May. I know that was kind of the trend, like early summer and stuff for graphics cards, so the fact that it is coming out


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Somewhere I saw either like September or October, uhm, it could just be to kind of stay more relevant with the consoles coming out just to be like, you know, yeah, the consoles look great for the price, but now we have this new GPU, so focus back on us type thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or yeaah, or it could have just been a result of the pandemic and a lot of, I know a lot of companies have products held up in docks overseas as they couldn't get pushed out for a while. So now a lot of that stuff's releasing. I don't know too much about that, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so I'm, I've definitely, uh, changed my desk up a bit for this because of everything going on and filming behind me in the studio. It's super messy right now. So I have like the, the desk angled a bit and I'm like sitting at the way edge because the monitor is so big and I didn't want it in the frame. Uh, so it's a bit awkward, but it's working out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've had them at like, like a carnival, but not from Chili's. Or Chili's too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, knowledge and history and all this stuff. So this was a learning experience for me. And I'm sure a lot of people out there. It's perfect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, yeaah, I pretty much just upload to YouTube and in terms of like social and stuff, Twitter and Instagram, random Frank P. Not too big on Instagram, uhm, I just try to upload stories and stuff when I have a new video to let people know. But yeaah, Twitter, I'm usually active on there, but YouTube is where it's all at for me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, not at all, not at all. Honestly, this is definitely, like, really, really cool for me. I know I've said it before, but I've been a fan since 2013, when I first, like, discovered you guys back in Machinima, and, uh, this has been awesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Might give people an interesting behind the scenes look at us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since we moved to quarantine, as I've been programming the channel, it's been tough because we have a backlog of videos that we would usually just keep parceling through.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I think the first reaction was, well,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As we're experiencing this quarantine in real time with people, it feels tonally off to just be putting up our content that's recorded in studio. So as I was programming, you know, program weeks in advance, I had to pivot and say, okay, well I'm going to start putting up the quarantine content and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Still sprinkling in some of that backlog content in, but I'm trying to make it more so like, you know, 75% quarantine. Well, maybe not even that much, but like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really trying to minimize the backlog stuff, but then the problem is that we need to get that backlog stuff out before it starts to feel really irrelevant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's been like a thing where I just stare at the schedule and I'm like, oh man, this is a tough choice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, you know, the Trevor Noah types where it's just kinda like them talking directly at a camera anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and they don't rely as much on guests. That feels a little bit more intuitive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're still like, they're still crowing at the crowd and stuff and then no, it's just silence and response.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And novelty, and you watch it now and it's sort of a morbid curiosity, but do you want this week to week going forward forever? Probably not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I remind him of Amy Poehler. Not Leslie Knope, Amy Poehler. And it was one of the best compliments that I've ever received in my life. Never forgotten it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, location? Looking back, I wish I had...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Famous actor Leslie Nielsen. Of course, one of my comedic heroes. Order of Canada Leslie Nielsen. Uh, we've never, we never got to meet in real life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the kind of thing where New York keeps trying to bring dudes to the beach house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm mostly like doing other stuff like work stuff, so I'm making a thumbnail or something, but it's called ambient worlds and it's different, uh, like movie and franchises that you would know, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For example, there's a video called Rainy Nights Hogwarts Music and Ambience, and it's basically like music from, you know, Harry Potter, but then it's rain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's one for, uh, Thor. There's one for Lord of the Rings, of course. There's the Shire Rivendell. There's, uh, Skyrim. Like, there's all kinds of stuff.

[Assistant] Don't get excited because then you're just gonna, you won't be able to maintain that excitement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's, I mean, I know you have, but then the, I know Adam has, but only when he had a toe infection that he needed like surgery on or whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That did happen. You keep saying unintended, except that you had complete control over the situation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I felt pressured. Yeah. Are you going to go to HR? No. Say, say, state now publicly for the record that you won't go to HR.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When John said he meal prepped but I wouldn't be happy about it, I thought he was gonna say he like, pre-portioned all of his Frosted Flakes. He's like, all I have to do is add the milk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, it's not ideal, the veggies at least are pretty good. Elise wants me to get something, so I need to grab something for her. Sorry for the interruption.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said, I said, Tori, find me your nicest stock. And he's like, it's all the same. And I said, I'll take it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kind of sad because someone like Elise who loves the beach and it's like part of her spirit to go to a beach and where, where we are in LA they, they have like actual police tape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like on the dune and it's like, you can't go, but there's the street and then there's police, there's like maybe five feet of sand and then there's police tape and then all the volleyball nets have all the nets pulled down and everything and you can't, you can't go into it. So it's, it's interesting just going there and then just seeing Elise just, she's just like, it's like a dog looking at another dog in a yard. She's just like watching and looking out there and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, uhm, but yeah, so we went to the beach and, uh, you got a cake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm, I'm gonna get trapped in here, trapped in this space long enough that I'm gonna go crazy and just go eat everything. But they have, and I got one a long time ago, they're cookie ice cream cakes. So they're like cookie cakes. They're like the size of a pizza.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The good thing about this cake is it is designed to be in the freezer, so it can last, like, it's got time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not just like sitting out somewhere that, you know, getting dry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was gonna do peanut butter and chocolate. No, no, no. You wanted the cookie dough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, John, I'm looking at the Baskin-Robbins page. Oh, sorry. Go ahead. Oh, yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, so I'm looking at the options. We got mint chocolate chip polar pizza ice cream treat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Entry level is the chocolate chip cookie dough, cause it's just more cookie. It just feels like you got more cookie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cookie on the bottom, cookie on the top with ice cream in the middle. Then once you've graduated beyond that, then I would say try the more extreme flavors. Maybe I'll buy both.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll say this about Justin Robbins' trip. Most people


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The workers there were being very diligent about trying to keep people organized and like, distant and stuff. But the people there, all they cared about was ice cream.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was probably more people in that store than there should have been and they put X's on the floor where you were supposed to stand. Elise and I were standing on those X's and everyone else, all the customers were just running around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's going to have, it's going to have a like to dislike ratio where it's, you know, one like for every 9,000 dislikes, but it's still going to have 25 million views and be fully monetized. So who cares?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not the onion is just the world we live in now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've brought it up before, but the favorite thing that I've ever had in the onion was in their big compilation books, they would have a section called, I think community voices, where it'd be like, oh yeah. Pictures of people. Well, no, it would, it would be like the person, like almost like a person wrote in like someone from the community wrote in, but it was a road cone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I, I almost, I almost shit my pants laughing at it. I was like in college or whatever and I was reading it with tears in my eyes, reading it. Cause it was like, me am Cone. Orange am me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the world of Iron Man, that Elon Musk has created like teleportation though, is the difference.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had, he has tubes all over the world underground. So like, you have to remember that it scales.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Elon in our world owns a successful, uh, technology company, um, and really wants to live on Mars. Elon in that world has a fortress on Mars and creates teleportation. So like that's the difference. It's still transportation technology, but it's, it's scaled for Marvel Cinematic Universe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was Obama. Cause I remember we had a discussion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, wait, so we're talking about Elon Musk for a specific reason.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, did he eat to create? He said, I don't, I choose to live without children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause it was like, the A12 is the name for a stealth plane, the Archangel. So they were like, it could be X Ash Archangel Musk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, also apparently Elon Musk owns x.com.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That strikes me as the kind of thing where people are getting fertility treatment and cause that's what happens if you can't have kids and you get fertility treatment and they're like, oops, we accidentally gave you too much of the baby juice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now you're gonna have 12 of them. I hope that's okay. You're like, oh, I only wanted one. That's life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a society thing. I think, I mean, yeah, Justin Timberlake probably should have stepped in and said like, no, we planned it, but, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Adam, what are you- Put it on your reel. Put it on your reel. It's the most immersive experience. There's- You know who doesn't have something like that on their reel? Liam Hemsworth. Okay? Yeaah. Because he's not gonna be applying at a cold


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Masters have, masters can learn from each other I suppose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He also is just, he's so smooth, right? Like, he has a very round head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't know much about job rules rules documentary, but I think, I think it is fair to say job ruled, not anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's most of those things. There's a, what is that? I was just listening today to a podcast where there's an article called, uh, the science of science.

[Assistant] I haven't gotten to read it yet, but I loaded it up and it's all about those studies and stuff about how you can read, like basically look at them and go, this is bullshit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, we've definitively figured out, we tested two college students and we have definitively figured out that gluten is bad. It's like, nope, that's not how.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what else do we have on that list? The Wheel of News. Oh my gosh, so much. Can we, I keep feeling like I'm picking them, but can we do the monkey, the monkey on the motorcycle?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so, so the, what I looked into.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was apparently this is a thing that happens to- Oh really? Kidnap children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And put them into like trafficking, basically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a cool future, right? How long until like Google and those features like that start to become as condescending as most humans would be in that scenario? So like you would say, Google, how do I get toothpaste off of a black dress? And it would go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you shouldn't have been wearing a black dress in the first place. Right, thank you for your help right now. Uhm, how do I do this? This is the scenario I'm in. I would say the best thing you could do to prevent this from happening again is put your, put your toothbrush, none of this helps Google. How long until AI does that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I just thought it was interesting that when they were pulled over, they only had $3 in their pocket and they just wanted to buy a Lambo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Humanity's ability to succeed while also utterly failing is pretty astonishing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess so. Out of all that guns and then maybe the iron knuckles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The crossbow sure, but why, if you have guns, would you ever want a crossbow?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well if there's one thing we've learned from Cormac McCarthy's The Road, uhm, it's that it lends itself to many comparisons.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've always said that the only thing that would, if there was an apocalyptic type scenario, I'm pretty well prepared for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, maybe they are, but I don't know that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know that I'm going to be able to find that either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You go to a lens crafter, you'll find it. You said just get one of those. I don't know that I'm going to find a giant football NFL quality lens that has my eye prescription. That seems like a lot harder to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I have always done the math where I'm like, I'm sure that a world level event like that, that like, there's probably enough glasses


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And lenses around somewhere that like you could get your hands on something if you really wanted to, but having to divert your survival strategy to do that is what's going to get you, get you killed. I've only ever really considered getting like Lasik or like corrective eye surgery, laser eye surgery.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what you never know. You run to the tub, turn the tub on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That stuff I feel like you'd have time. As long as you have the water and the contacts, you have time to learn how to do kindling and fire. Those are survival techniques embedded in our brain. If Tom Hanks can do it. Tom Hanks can do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I couldn't imagine that much time of the day. Was it Jacob? Cause I feel like he's the crime equivalent of Jacob. He's figured out how to manipulate time in such a way that he can do more things than other human beings can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inside Gaming had been dead for a while by the time I got hired. I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, it's great to have her bring that tuna back into the office every- an office that already smells and is too hot, and then to fill it with microwave tuna.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Video producer, editor maybe? But now, we host the daily. We take the daily.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's also, but there's a twist also in that it's not filmed. It's not, yes, it's an audio podcast. Can you imagine?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, there is a lot of news that isn't really maybe big enough for a full daily that if you put it in, like kind of what the roundup is already, but we can talk about it more. Stuff that is still very newsworthy, but to get to a, you know, 10 minute video might be a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're not that much older than me. How old are you? I'm 42, you didn't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We always go in, so we upload the daily ourselves when we are editing the daily. We also upload it and then Autumn adds whatever stuff to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Autumn's gonna have an earful after this podcast, let me tell you. We like our fans. And don't get it twisted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You psychopath. I own it on PS3 too, but come on. It's just PS3. FBI.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two studios. I mean they had that, what we talked about, there was a tech demo in 2005 for PS3.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I saw Robots, I think the movie is called, with Mel Brooks and Robin Williams. Just to see the episode 3 trailer. It debuted with that movie, so I had to see that movie. I mean, that seems like a fair trade. That movie is great. I love that movie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You never got a PS1 as a kid? Until, like I didn't get a PS1 until I was way older. My dentist had one. So I would go over. Yeah. Well I would go over to all my friends' houses who had cool gaming systems and then I would just see that giant case and be like, you got, what is this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was Half-Life episode 2? Or 2 episode 2? What was it? Oh. When? When? Oh 3?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have, I played three hours of it at an event that was sandwiched between two homeless shelters in downtown LA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ended up getting in contact with someone that was like, yeah, this event isn't happening right now. Autumn dispatched you a month early. That makes sense. But, uh, I saw a guy rip off his pants and underwear. So he's just porky pigging. He's shirt, no pants or underwear. And he just screaming, throws his pants over a fence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're not huge, but, uh, so in Doom there's mechanics that reward you with very specific, like the chainsaws ammo. The glory kills give you health. So there's a new one that spits armor at you and it's called the flame belch. It's awesome. And it is something that pops up on your shoulder and just like shoots fire at enemies and they spit out armor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That whole system of uh, the like glory kills, chainsaw, and the flame belch is, feels way more streamlined. They kind of each have their individual buttons, so you're not like tapping into the chainsaw and then


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just kind of like 3D space stuff now where you jump, dash, then you grab a thing and swing and then you have to shoot like a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whatever while you're in mid-air, like a target that then opens the door that you have to dash into. And then immediately there's 20 guys running at you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today on the show we're talking about the future, the past, and if a famous basketball player was responsible for the death of his dad or not. More of this today on Duesuit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, thank you ExpressVPN for sponsoring us. If you visit expressvpn.com slash dude, you can get an extra three months of ExpressVPN for free. We'll be hearing more for them later, but first let me introduce my guests today. Zoom me out, camera person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you not call the people in your head camera person or camera people? Is my first question for you today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fun, loving podcast. I wanna, I wanna raise the spirits. I read an article today that said people are looking for


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, things that make them feel better about themselves? No idea why.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we'll figure, we'll come to some sort of conclusion. Usually I think people like tragedy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But uh, today we're gonna try to make it, we're gonna make it fun. Are you guys okay with that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and we, I think we made one of the biggest faux pas in the industry where we had you on because we know who you are and we know of your breath of work, but the audience did not. We never got to talk about that. So we're definitely going to be exploring that today on the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do want to bring up this quick story, uh, just because it does- it does-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has a little bit to do with the, or it has to do with a little bit of the reflection of the world we're in today, but it brought up some really interesting questions, so uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The other day I was, I had to go pick up a package. I accidentally got a package delivered to the office instead of my house and I know we're supposed to be staying home. So I made a drive and it was the first time I listened to a podcast in a long while. And I realized none of us are probably listening to podcasts right now, right? Which is like, cause we're just talking to an empty theater of skeletons. Most likely I'm listening to more podcasts than ever before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If everyone has a podcast and there's one listener per podcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was listening to a New York Times, uh, the daily podcast, which I used to listen to on the daily. And once the news kept coming, kind of becoming samey, I was like, ah, I'm not really into this. It's kind of really depressing, but they had this really interesting talk about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The idea that moving forward in the future, there's going to be two class of people, the immune and the infected.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which I thought was really interesting and they talked about how the immune will be the special breed of person who will be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, they'll have like a badge of honor placed upon them or it'll be like on an app, but these people can fly. These people can perform surgeries. They're gonna be the most valuable people to our society. The way I saw it was like X-Men if society didn't shun them and they actually love them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So anyway, first of all, I thought that was interesting that we could have this potential future.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, of course not. And they, they talked about that and how like it, obviously it's not that sort of thing, but it-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are sort of in this weird boring dystopia in a weird way, uhm, as people tend to call it. And I just thought that was a really interesting, like, it reminded me of the film whose name I can never say, uh, correctly, Johnny Mononic. M-M-M-M-Monic. Johnny Mononic. M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-M-M-M-M-M-Monic. M-M-M-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, regardless, but he was a special class of person who could, he would download stuff onto his brain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's the sort of future we're moving into. It's a very kind of cyberpunk thing, but I was just imagining a weird future where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a flight full of people and they all have, they're all like a, like a special class essentially.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have two problems with Gattaca. Go ahead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, we live in a future of, and we're presuming we live in this world where a character like Ethan Hawke is using a small vacuum on his keyboard every day and everyone goes, he's so clean. Also, we check DNA all the time. Nothing suspicious about that. A little weird.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just a quick thought, uh, and then, um, you always save a little for the swim back, just a little, right? Otherwise he would drown.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yeah, I recognize it now. Yeah, there it is. Wow, thanks for the support.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I guess like the solid, I don't know what, yeah, what do you call it? Like the, like the Ronad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just, I can already see people salivating like thinking of their next sci-fi novel based on this concept.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I call it the wild cards right now because we don't know. You know, it's, it's a coin flip whether it's going to, and it's not worth it. They talk about that a bit on the daily podcast too, where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, you know, people are talking about self-vaccinating and sort of like that and they're like, it's like, you don't, don't do that because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you don't know what the risks, I mean, you know what the risks are, but obviously you, there's no, there's no template to derive this from. But, um.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, uh, like some pastor that was caught scamming people in the 80s. I don't know. It's just a random reference, I thought.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, that's the, that's sort of the question in this thing. Right now, we are being asked, you know, unless you're an essential worker in some capacity, would you rather be the person who, uh, has the ability to do these...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, live your life somewhat normally while the rest of us have to live inside.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rather be the person saying inside if, if given the choice, if you knew, um, like would you, would you be willing to accept that responsibility that like someone would be say, Elise, you're, you're immune. We need you to perform surgery on this person right now. We'll walk you through it. Don't worry. It's easy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean they clean it by like dipping it in a cup of sprite, like it's not, I don't know how clean it really is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like another situation, Todd, they, they come to you, the government comes to you, to you, they, you know, like the, they come in the hazmat suits.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I'm saying imagine that, that sort of situation where now your government calls upon you where they say,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You need to stop whatever you're doing and you need to travel for us because you're now a courier because you need a, you need like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You laugh, but our country may need to call upon you Todd.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so what would you, if you were in a situation where you, I think,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, everyone here lives with a significant other. I'm not sure about James or Elise, but uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If your significant other was, uh, immune or wild card, uhm, and you were not, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, uhm, what would you, would you still accept the responsibility of, uh, the Avengers, uh, when they come on you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will say you're completely immune and you can't pass it on. You're, you're the, you're the most rare. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, he's like, you take a deep breath and I'll suck it out of you, but then they both drown.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's that scene in the movie The Road where like you hear like an explosion. It's unclear of how like how the world ends in that movie, but Viggo Mortensen jumps up and starts filling up the bathtub with water because he's just like wired that way. Todd books a flight to Hawaii.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I never read the book, I only saw the movie, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is sort of unclear, yeaah, it's like, uh, I think it's just assumed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was like a nuclear holocaust that lasted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're, you're, but you're saying Todd, because your immersion is broken or your, your OCD kicks in. Is that what you're saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. That seems to be the trouble with prequels in general, right? It either needs to line up or it needs to basically have no effect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the future movies because you have to set it back so like you could do whatever you want, but it has to be set back to zero.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're gonna learn some more about what's in our rearview after we hear from our sponsor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You use the internet with confidence from your computer, tablet or smartphone because ExpressVPN has you covered on every device. Simply tap one button and you are protected. ExpressVPN is the fastest, most trusted VPN on the market. It's rated number one by CNET, Wired, The Verge and countless more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On a one year package, that's express, e-x-p-r-e-s-s-vpn.com slash dude. Expressvpn.com slash dude to learn more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you ExpressVPN for sponsoring this show. Sorry, Todd, what were you gonna say?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, talk, no, I want to, I, well, because this next segment is all about you, our guest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I apologize, I wasn't listening the last time you were on our show and we didn't get to talk about a lot of the accomplishments you've had.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You told me, uh, at a hookah bar once.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you sort of have a reverse learning curve because right now so much content is made for


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Almost like single individuals and not a crowd. You are creating content where people feel like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the first lady's with, is it Vivica A. Fox? It's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's Will Smith's wife. She goes, he goes, what do you do, honey? He goes, oh, I'm a dancer. She goes, ah, the ballet. She goes, no, people put money in a G string. And she goes,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've, I've learned to not look at the webcam ever. Cause we have the, we have the video feed. I look to the side and I just listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I, I, I just wanted our, I, I've, I've known of your history for, you know, obviously a while, but I didn't think our audience did and I thought it was an interesting story and I wanted them to learn a little, little bit about, you know, learn a little something from the team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, he just likes Saw. He likes the Saw movie. He had drinks with Blumhouse and said, when you're bringing Saw back, like, do you want to bring it back? And he said, me? And now we have new Saw's.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's always on air, it's never not off air. Speaking of which, I real quick just want to say Todd, thank you for all of that. I think it's really cool to hear from our guests and especially those who have a great little


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] History like that. We're going to move on to a new segment, but before we do that, just want to do a quick little ad break from our sponsor Quip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right now we're all probably getting a lot of food delivered, so why not add your toothbrush routine to the mix? No, I am not personally coming to your house to brush your teeth, instead we have the next best thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's go ahead and talk about brushing our teeth. 75% of us use old worn out bristles that are ineffective and even more people forget to floss.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Quip brush heads, toothpaste, and floss refills are automatically delivered on a dentist recommended schedule every three months for just $5 each and shipping is always free.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My theory is because in order for it to work, you have to look into the lens.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And no one wants to stare into a lens. They want to look at their own beautiful self. So they're always looking. So it's always this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I think, I think it will, I dunno, I think we're, yea, I think video technology is awesome, I'm with you there Todd, where it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we were all young, we were like, video calls, flying cars, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We got half of that, you know, or we're there, like maybe, maybe even with drones is getting even closer. So it's like, it's pretty cool. But then the reality is, well, I don't want to do that because I, texting is really the best way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like leaving a message that you can read anytime and you don't have to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's like most people have their phone on mute all the time anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, well I want to inter- oh I guess I never said this, uh, well, eh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm just thinking of coming back out of the ad break. Thank you quip. There it is. Alright, I want to move on to our last segment of the show. It's a new thing I'm working on. It's a little thing that I like to call good news, bad news.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I didn't make that title card five minutes before the show, James. Why would you ask that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just thought it wasn't long enough. It was in our library. Here's the thing, I could look that up through the power of Google. I could say the word Gerard Butler, Katherine Heigl movie and it would give me the title. I don't want to look it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And yeah, and it's going to be a white background. I can already see it and I don't want to. And the logo is the same. Anyway, is this the bad news?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, well, I feel like at the very least, I want everyone here to be neutral. Uh, obviously when you feel a little high, I don't want you to feel low. So I'm going to give you all a good story and then to balance it all out, I'm going to give you a bad news story.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, typically I would normally ask you guys which one you want first, but I'm in, I'm hosting this so, uh, I'm telling you. So first some good news. Uh, solar energy in Germany is performing better than ever due to the reduction of carbon emissions. They produced over 32,000 megawatts on Monday. Pretty cool. Wow. Pure solar energy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, to bounce it out for the Todd's of the world, the bad news story is, uh, Solar Roads, which is a very popular Indiegogo. It's also, I think it's called like Solar Roads Dammit or something, some cool edgy name. Uhm, they had their Sandpoint installation vandalized the other day. Uh, this is a company that's trying to make


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, like basically everything solar, so like highways and walkways. Uh, looks like someone just kinda hit it with a hammer. And, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It raised like 2 million dollars so they can start building. A lot of people have called it stupid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imagine if everything was solar panels, constantly creating energy except.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It looks like if you walk on it, it breaks. So bad news. Sorry everyone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, too bad. What are you gonna do? Make floating technology? Get outta here. Uh, onto some good news. Uh, basketball player, or former basketball player, and baseball player, and golfer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, uhm, Michael Jordan is donating his entire share of the proceeds from the Last Dance documentary to charitable causes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, that's no indication because I'm going to look up Todd right now and it's going to say $4 billion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will give this to Michael Jordan. He is the only man post Hitler that pulled off that mustache and said, what are you going to do about it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, uh, nothing signifies the death more than what happened recently where, uh, I was working in the office, Jess came in and goes, hey, how do we, like, how do we do the direct TV thing? How do we?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go to the channel. She's like, they're doing this thing right now. Lady Gaga is performing and they're showing it and.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we had to find it on the internet. It was on MTV, except they were streaming it on Twitter at the same time and the broadcast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was I think ahead and the stream was behind. So Jess was watching it on her phone. By the time I got it working on TV, Lady Gaga was done and it had moved on and I was like, okay, well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't want to say Avatar, but my brain says Avatar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You, boy, what day is it? It's our retard day, sir!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like that guy. Alright, and your final wild card news story, Chris Pine, will be starring in the Saint reboot. That's the story for James.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why we, yeah, I know, I'm sorry. He was, he did, he did Australian in the casting audition. I love being in the show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, that's what I heard. Yeah, they cut the sex scene. They didn't like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but I think he still fuses with the horse thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, we got some stuff coming up this weekend. Uh, we got a Predator livestream, uh, coming up on Friday the 24th. Uh, right now, Elise, tell me if I'm right with these times from 5 to 7.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Keep an eye on the Twitter for the official times, but sometime between 5 and 7. We'll be doing that. We also have a new board as hell going up. This one we're playing a little game called Sonar Jams.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and then finally we have an Animal Crossing gameplay going up on Sunday. I think this is first of many.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Awesome. Can't wait to see it. Well, thank you guys for being on the show. Thank you everyone for watching. Todd, once again, thank you very much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] CDs are dead and they don't cost $18 anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That first week was just every time someone said either our names, we'd both like put our heads up like prayer blogs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you're really? 54? 53. Okay, sorry. Uh, but yeah, I'm a year older than Bruce here. You're not really 50. What are you? No I'm not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your guys' toilet broke a couple times. Well yeah, I mean we had our own issues. Yeah, there was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There were dogfights daily. There was the, that toilet overflowed. I mean, there was, there was some issues.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the thing that was fun. We'd have cookouts out there and like every Friday we'd watch all the videos that were going up in the weekend all together when we were done with, you know, all of our work. And yeah, there was, there was definitely some fun spots, but now we have like the best room though. This place is cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, uh, that, I think it was Hitman Contracts with the Matt Peake. Oh yeaah. The Matt Peake arc was really good. The Kokopa demo was good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometime. Did you think when in the trailer when he put his bloody hand out as like a mouth was gonna open on it like in the cartoon? I was hoping so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was studying anthropology at UC Santa Cruz.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean it's not, it's not the sexiest part of this business, but it's, it's important and that's how you guys make your money. That's how we all make our money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Youtube is like great because it's free and it's there for everybody but it's always changing and trying to figure out how to keep getting the content out to the right people and staying successful is really tough. And also not having to edit the hell out of every video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was like lots of moves. Very, it was very uh, Chelsea Peretti.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm trying. I did work out over my lunch break. I have been, it's a different kind of exercise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, right now I'm leaning more towards a bodyweight body, but my whole life I've been building towards a lifting weight body.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that they always assume that they're complicit, and I guess in some ways hosts of reality shows are complicit, but also other times the small piece of the pie that you participate in doesn't allow you to see the full picture, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are they actual sex dolls? Like do they have holes in them or is it just the same, the same manufacturing facility that also this doesn't do anything. There's like one sex doll every


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I'm saying. Maybe they were just dolls. They have a manufacturing process for dolls and then there's the second part of the process where they put parts in it and they just didn't put the parts in it. Just cause they jiggle a little bit, you can't fault them for that. You want to see the jiggle when they're cheering.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, yeaah. It was because it was a chain reaction, right? So the first guy saw it and was like, oh shit, that takes you to that website where that girl gets banged by a bunch of dudes or whatever. And then, and then, and they're like, uh, but they don't want to say anything because that's basically admitting that they're familiar with said website.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, so, it was probably, it was probably a guy and then the dolls arrived and they had to sign for it and then there was another woman there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's like, I'm not familiar with any of this. And so then it just got passed on and every single time it would get to another person who knew what it said, but it was Emperor's, Emperor's new clothes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, what's the difference between filling the stands otherwise? People have sex with human beings, so essentially human beings are just sex dolls that can move more. Sex dolls with emotions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wait, do those signs say butt stuff? Buttstuff.com? Look at them, they're having the time of their life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow, that one had a princess peach crown. I also like that they have protective masks on them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it sends a good message. It does? Oh, so that, there it is, the Q-I-T-A.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Has it ever bothered you if you're watching something and the stadium isn't full with people?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like if that was a deal breaker, the MLS and WNBA wouldn't exist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one would be able to watch that, or they would have forgotten sex dolls in the crowd a long time ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, it's like the time I went to Weenie Roast and The Crystal Method was performing. The Crystal Method, okay. And then they, and there's a, there's a fence between the lawn where just general attendees could go and then the, the amphitheater section of it and then they went


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Climb the fence! And then people started climbing over and then everyone ditched the lawn and then started climbing the crowd of the amphitheater because Crystal Method's cool. Wow, the Crystal Method is cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, absolutely. Is it a controlling aspect? Yeah, I bet you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I do think it's funny that we're at the point as a society, like this is like a reset on everything because we.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were constantly figuring out how to cram more and more people into smaller and smaller places to increase margin. So like, it feels like, correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels like if you went to a stadium to watch a game like 25 years ago,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You would have more space between like your knees and everything like that than when you did. But now they're like, we have to fit 85,000 people in this stadium.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, and then same for planes, right? Like at a plane, you see, you see pictures of people in the seventies holding their martinis all basically sitting in recliners as they're, as they're heading to Hawaii or whatever. And now you're all crammed into it, but they're just going to have to backtrack on all that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The thing is, we've already seen the solution to this, and it's fifth element, right? You can pack anyone in anywhere as a small space as long as you're able to hit them with some sort of gas that makes them pass out, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what happens in 5th Element is if you're not gonna go down on one of stewardesses, you're gonna climb into your little cube box with some practical stranger. I would love that. And then just black out and then you're gonna arrive in Flosten Paradise. Yeah.
