Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Good evening. Hi, everyone. My name is George. This show is Don't Panic Flip, and we have guests galore. We have MJ here in the house with us. You guys remember MJ? Yeah. And we also have on the call Surreal and Dice. Surreal and Dice, how are you guys doing? Doing okay. How are you? I'm good. I love asking all the people virtually here with one question, how are they doing? And then seeing how they handle who answers first. Yep. I find that very, like, an enjoyable amount of awkwardness. Spiral the Hustle. Am I going to have that down? It's just the second statement that you have problems with. Yeah. Spiral the Husky Iron Fox and Firestorm welcome to the stream it was perfect yes you guys nailed it that is clip of the night I'm almost certain at this point see you guys did you just George to sand dust my job is done ok your job is to what's the plate of onion rings But it's charging, so don't set it up just yet. We're giving it extra time to charge. So what game are we playing this evening? We are playing some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Two versions of Jurassic Park. What was that? Aren't you playing two versions of Jurassic Park? Two versions? No. Oh, I thought you were practicing that new one. Is that not out yet? I am so confused. Dice, you're going to have to explain that. that new video game, like the old ones. No, and that's not Jurassic Park. That is Shredder's Revenge TMNT, which comes out on Thursday, which, yes, is the reason we are completely focused on TMNT this week. So we're playing TMNT tonight. We're playing it tomorrow. So tonight we have MJ. Paul will be here shortly. Janelle is off camera and refuses to come on camera. Bye, Janelle. Oh, my God. Great timing. At least there's no screaming chicken. And tomorrow... I'm sorry, Dice. At least there's no dark gun. And there's no dark gun. Yes, excellent. Insanity Falls welcomes the stream. Don't even think about giving the dark gun. No, better yet, I'll give it to Paul. Yeah, Paul will be here soon. He was running a bit late. We've got audio for him when he gets here eventually. We might have to do a quick break. Oh, I should also go back over here. Tomorrow we've got Sound Voltex and Escher in-house on TMNT, and then Thursday is on the Pinball Network. We will be performing a battle between Joel from Flip N Out Pinball and myself. What's the thing you said about Escher earlier? Yesterday? What was the thing I said? That he is what in his drink? Oh, yeah. Asher just hit number one in the world. Yeah, number one in the world. Yep. So we will have the number one pinball player in the world. Can we really beat him? No, no. Sorry. He has achieved number one pinball player in the world. I think after he won, was it Worlds up against Keith? They ended up battling for two or three hours a couple weekends ago. It was intense. Well, now he has to go for best in the universe. You will have the number one pinball player in the world. Yes, thank you. It also is Escher. That's surreal. Please clarify and tell me you're drinking a vodka and Pepsi. Sure. It should be Pepsi, right? Because that's obviously the drink that combines. Have you ever had... How often, MJ, do you use Pepsi as a mixer in your alcoholic beverages? I don't drink caffeine, so never. Never, okay. That was entirely too easy. When I was drinking caffeine, also never. It was Coke for me. Okay, good. Yeah, because Coke is the mixer, right? Yeah, okay. Now, Surreal, have you ever used Pepsi in a mixer before? No, but I still love Mr. Scoot. So, Surreal is referencing here, Mr. Scoot one night was making vodka and Pepsi beverages, and it came up on stream again the other night. But it was obviously amazing. Mr. Scoot is fantastic. Just for whatever reason, zeroed in on how awkward that drink was. Well, listen, the answer is no, I haven't. But it's only because I don't have it around. I don't feel like if I'm mixing cola with alcohol, I care that much. Because the point is to drink the alcohol, not the soda. With a carrier. So I don't care. It can be Kirkland for all I care. Oh, wow. Going that round. Wow. Yep, no, Costco. Thank you for letting me use your chest. You're welcome. Joe, you're absolutely correct. I think that Pepsi is sweeter, and Coke has a more acidic taste that blends with the alcohol. what is the additive not a substrate a substrate would be the coke the additive and then you can add the lime to it which has more the acidic whatever that is alcohol, alkaline I don't know but anyways Pepsi is definitely more sweeter and has like a more round taste to it where coke has a more bitter taste to it and that is just from a person who grew up on Pepsi and transferred to Coke later in life. Here you go. What about Crystal Pepsi? There you go. You are all dead. I've had Crystal Pepsi when they brought it back. Oh, I had it when it first came out. Okay. But I feel like that is the original recipe. It was not the original recipe? They switched it to corn syrup. Oh, instead of cane sugar? I was enjoying speaking into my nipples. Well, that was the big conspiracy theory about New Coke, remember? Mm. Mm-hmm. Yeah, New Coke was a little funky. But wasn't that in the 70s? I thought it was in the 80s. That was because for a short while, Pepsi was not one goal in America. I was passionate enough to remember that, so... It was not 80s. Was it really 80s? Mm-hmm. If only there were some sort of interconnected network where we could find this information out. You are the person that coined GTS. Catching up on chat. So Razor, welcome to the stream. Joe Air, welcome to the stream. Spyro saying, hey, this happened to me twice now. When I shoot the second ball into the building and it goes on the roof, it then goes into ball search. It doesn't drop the balls off the roof. I have to take off the glass to recover the ball. Then once I get all three balls on the roof, the building goes back up. but does not come back down then to release the balls. If I had to guess, there is a optical sensor on the building that isn't working. It could be misaligned. It might be disconnected. And I'm guessing what's causing your issue on the roof there. It doesn't know that the balls are there, so it loses track of them. Is that on this game? Nope, that's on Godzilla, I think, behind us. Oh. also Coke for mixers never Pepsi says Joe Air right there with you vodka and Faygo I've never had Faygo says Insanity Falls what is Faygo I don't know it's from Detroit and it's mainly associated with the Insane Clown Posse because their fans drink a lot of Faygo okay because the Insane Clown Posse is from Detroit SCP for life yeah okay I feel like Chad are you down with the clown yeah I feel like surreal, just drop some Spidey right there. Yep. Hey, Squalito, welcome to the stream. And it was Spyro was talking about Godzilla. Yep. It's obviously Juggalo juice. Okay. Yeah, because if you go see an ICP show, you're going to get sprayed with Sago. What is, so is it a cola? They make several different types. So there's like a cotton candy, a candy apple. They do make a cola. They make a root beer. Like Fanta? Yeah, sort of. It's delicious. It's like really cheap. Like every two liters, 99 cents. Oh, okay. Joe Air says it's delicious and should be considered with the higher tier soda drink brands. Okay. Oh, and Squalito jumping right into the announcement that happened today from J.J.P. Is everyone familiar with J.J.P.'s announcement? Yeah. I was wondering if we were going to talk about that. Are they finally putting out Toy Story? They are finally putting out Toy Story. Tomorrow, right? Is the reveal? Tomorrow is the, I don't know if tomorrow is the teaser or if it's a full reveal. But there are a lot of people waiting. In fact, the pinball show didn't put out an episode today. I think they're waiting for tomorrow to put out their episode or maybe Wednesday in order to capture specifically information about the release. So, JJP finally releasing Toy Story, and they even gave us a little picture of the front with a bouncy ball as the plunger. Is it going to be full of that, like, weird spoon? I hope it has spork. I would be fine if it was nothing but spork. I love spork. Your kid is different generation than my kid. I did not watch the spork one, but I watched all the other ones. And when I thought, like, was it Toy Story 3 or 4? What are you doing to that can? Yeah, can we take a moment to acknowledge that Jay-Z just peeled her booze? Yep. It's like an apple. Yeah. It is like an apple. It was a Washington apple. Yeah. So, like, what was it, three or four when Andy went to college? He went to college in three. Okay, so, and, like, when, spoiler alert, hashtag spoiler alert, if you haven't seen it by now, it was like, hey! Hi, Pinball Princess, Julian. Like, when they all, like, held hands on the weight of the trash compactor and, like, going into Mordor and, like, became resigned to their fate. Yeah. Like, oh, my gosh. It's not fair. Yes. Like, that was it for me. That was it. Like, Andy went to college. That was it. There was no rebirth for me. Well, and such a huge part of that was about the kid going to college. Like, the toy is struggling with the fact that their owner was leaving them and moving on. Think about it. It's kind of like the beginning of Empty Nest Syndrome. Yep. Right? And then number four. Yeah, they were all preschool. They went to the preschool. Well, they did, but here's my thought on four. Four is about Woody and Buzz. Sorry, spoiler. You haven't seen it. I haven't seen Toy Story 4. I've seen the other three. Okay, you know what? We are not going to spoil Toy Story 4. But Toy Story 4, I feel like, is all about this exciting... Hi, Paul. It is. Welcome. You get to win. Yeah, you do you, man. and it's all about deciding. It's like, it feels to me like it was about, like, we stayed together for the kids and now that we're not, it's okay to separate. So Buzz and Woody get a divorce in four. It's like, I'm not saying that's what, that's what I feel like it tries to address. Sure. Is that, and it's weird because that, in a pinball machine to me, does not seem like it makes a lot of sense. Well, I mean, if the rumor's true about the... If the rumor's true about Jaws, that movie's way more about toxic masculinity than it is a shark. Now, here, can you do me a favor over here, MJ, and step a little bit closer? Because if there is anybody who happens to know more about Jaws, the movie, I don't know of them. Because you did, I'm sorry, two years of podcasts? About a year and a half. It started in September 2020, and yeah, I did a podcast called Let's Jaws for a Minute, and we watched a minute or thereabouts of Jaws, and then talked about it for an hour. For a year and a half, every minute of the movie. Now, did you start at the rolling credits, and did the minutes include the credits at the end? Yes, they did. Okay, so I'm assuming you talked about the people who were a part of the movie at that point. Yeah, definitely. Okay. Yep. Yep. Okay. Jaws reference, one of the night. First one. Shout out, not Spider-Man's girlfriend. So that's my original Twitter name. That's a friend of mine. That's my best friend in chat. So she's watching. Hi, not Spider-Man's girlfriend. Yeah. MJ. So the Spider-Man pinball machine has the most important mode in all of pinball, which is rescue MJ. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Because it's me. Because it's you. All right. Catching back up here on chat. First of all, his name is Forky. You're right. it wasn't Sporky, it was Sporky, thank you. Insanity Falls, thank you so much. I thought his name was Keanu. Wait, was it Keanu? He was the Evil Knievel. That was Keanu Reeves. That was not Keanu Reeves. Keanu Reeves was the Evil Knievel. Evil Knievel character. Is this me? Oh, right, a much better and more memorable character. No! Those are some seriously awesome kicks. Is this me? No, that is not for you. Okay. Yeah, here's what's going to happen. Two seconds here. We're actually going to play a little bit of pinball. I'm going to get a game started, and I'm going to let MJ go first while I get Paul set up with all of the audio stuff. We're getting to pinball? It only took 20 minutes to that. It only took 20 minutes. All right, you've got a mic then. You are already mic'd up. I'm going to use a domicile because he's my favorite. Okay, you're right. I'll switch it down. Okay. I don't really know this game at all. Higher peanut. Yes, 20 minutes and we can see the play. Just shoot the stuff that's flashing. Yeah. Or you could do what I do if I'm losing a tournament and it's a very infuriating strategy. Shoot everything that's not flashing. To buy yourself a little more time because you didn't get to play that one. or flip the table. Oh, I'll try that one. I'll try flipping the table. Ball two rocks. Should I be starting with multiball? Does it matter? You can start a multiball. Make it all happen. So I think what my question is, should I focus on modes or should I focus on multi-balls? Because I've heard multi-balls are the way to blow this game. So multi-balls are definitely the way to put up points. If your goal is points, then multi-balls is the place to do it. Okay. I'm sorry? I'm sorry? Oh. Dice, can you say Thunder Man's girlfriend? That's Donatello. No, it's Purple Turtle. Okay. Who else we got? So we have Dice and Surreal on the call right now. This cool multiball chart. Hi. I also want to throw out, by the way, just technically what's going on right now. We have four people physically here and on wireless microphones and wireless headsets. And then we have two people called in. And everybody can talk and listen to one another. That is a little bit of a screaming feat. Yeah, and only moments for you. Did you know all of you guys have this many balls? Yep. All right. Yeah, Joe's going to pop in after he refreshes his beverage and Sammy will rate us. Okay. We will have two more in a minute. We will have four physical and four virtual people. That's so cool. What a night. Joe, welcome. Howdy. Howdy. Joe Hills, everybody. Okay. So we were just, I was giving myself a massive pat on the back for the technical achievement of having virtual people and physical people on the call and everybody wirelessly able to listen and talk to one another. So cute. Nice save. Do I have my 2x running? You... Okay, yes, you do have 2x running right there. Then I want to get into turtle power. Wow. Joe Hills just subscribed. Good try. That was a good try. Do you want that? Oh, no. Sammy Higgins. Sammy Higgins. There we go. Dice, you got it. Go ahead and announce it, man. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cut you off. Sammy Higgins writing with the party of 7B, a beautiful people. Great. Beautiful people. Sammy Higgins, thank you so much. You're amazing. Make sure to get yourself a... Oh, Sammy just rated up. You're number two. I'm number three. Okay. I have something for this. Is that the first time they've called number two? I don't know if Sammy Higgins has a special thing for her. Sammy, George has a special treat for you. Just for her. It'd be great if I could do something with this 2x playfield instead of just trying to not die. Hey, Devin. There we go. Okay. You're just on mute, so... Am I working? Yeah. Can I backhand this right ramp? Uh, that is a Paul question. You can backhand the right ramp. Okay. I mean, maybe not you, but... Sure, yeah. Vanity Falls says, Paul Senpai, notice me? There we go, Turtle Power. Hello, Sammy. Hello, Sammy. Where'd you and Chiggo get your special present? I know it would be Mark. It's Mark. Go hide. All right. Who's Jaffet? Sam, stand up. That's me. Hi, Insanity Falls, a.k.a. Lane Bryant. And that is a deep cut from podcast right there. I can call him Mark. Oh. Yeah, Sammy Higgin. Oh, wow. Yes. Baseball. Hashtag baseball. Way to go, sports team. Wait, you're not doing so much this year. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, you need to undo some buttons there. Okay. Well, it's weird because it says Rockies there. I'm good. I'm good. I mean, your nipples will make an O. Nice job. Nicely done. Is that a good score on this game? I mean, you were playing for, you know, a great time on board game. Firestorm Ken says, yo, batter up. Firestorm, welcome. I'll join you guys in a few. Make a break. Cool. Do that break. And then land the final shot. Seriously, though, who was Devin? You mentioned, hey, Devin. Devin Crate. Devin Crate. Got it. Devin Crates, as I say. Okay. But I'm pretty good at crates. By the way, Davink, great. What if you said it with a French accent? I don't care which turtle I go with. Who can say it with a French accent? Not me. Not me either. I can't do a French accent. What are we saying with a French accent? Devon Crates. Devon Crates. So Devon's actually from Australia, down under. It might be more like Devon Crates. That's not even close. No, it's David Price. David Price. Price. Price, isn't it? The real high-scoring combos were the frenzy manoeuvring. Along the way, yes. Hey, and on that note, total perfect segue. Just letting everybody know who's here in chat and physically. We have playing right now, that is Paul, a.k.a. Extra Paul, a.k.a. Bumper Nugget, who streams on Twitch. We also have MJ over here. This guy. MJ has a podcast. What is your podcast called again? Let's Jaws for a Minute. Let's Jaws for a Minute. Very clever. Now, you guys, I follow you now on Twitter. You tweet a lot, by the way. That's the benefit. So my co-host is in the UK, so the hours I'm asleep, she covers the hours she's asleep, I get to cover. Oh, okay. Lovely, lovely. And you talked about new content coming because you guys actually finished Jaws. Yeah, so yeah, we finished the 80 episodes just about Jaws, and now we're getting ready to go into so Sarah broke her ankle pretty severely. Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy. So Sarah broke her ankle pretty severely. Sarah's my co-host. And she's going to have just like a long road to recovery, so we don't know when we will be back, but when we come back we will do one episode, not minute by minute, one episode on each of the job sequels, and then we're going to start covering all of Steven Spielberg's filmography, once again, not minifited. Love it. MJ, are you also doing AI, even though he only did half of it? Yes, yes, that's on the list. I didn't know he only did half of it. He did the A. Are you sure it wasn't the I? And then he went and died. Yeah, so he directed all of it, but Kubrick wrote it. Kubrick didn't do any of the directing on it, because he was directing Eyes Wide Shut before he died. He died right after Eyes Wide Shut wrapped film. Oh, dear. Or, as the Brits call him, Kubrick. Yes. So, Insanity Falls says, it is how you say itch with a French accent. Whoa, British accent for an Australian, says Mr. Hopwood. Kirk Hobbs says, go Australian in the World Cup. Brisbane here. Brisbane. Devon Crate. Brisbane. I've been to Brisbane. You have a mic. I'm like, you're the one person that didn't have a mic on a minute ago, but all good. Socrates. So, Devon Crate. Why are we picking on Devon Crate? It's like Socrates. You forgot about him, George. Oh, okay, okay. Dice says all of this Devoncretese Devoncretese there are at least four ways to read my username says Devoncretese I think it's the I in Devon that's throwing me off yeah Insanity Falls says are you sure she wasn't bitten by a shark I've seen pictures of the scars from her surgery and it's a coin toss And then NotSpiderMan's girlfriend says, MJ, after doing Jaws by the Minute for a year and a half, I'm tired and I want to go to bed. So they sing that song in a movie. Or it could be a typo. His name could be Divine Crepes. Or Divine Crutchies. Divine. I don't know why, but in my mind, I think of that like crepes, but it's crepes with hard chocolate for some reason. Divine Crate is a homage to Indiana Jones. Oh. Indiana Jones and the Divine Crates. I mean, that's how the movie ends. Higher, Peter says it has an A in movement, but pretends it doesn't. So it's at least one Divine Crate. And if Indiana Jones has taught me anything, it's that I can ride a fridge out of an airplane and I will be fine. don't need anything you can call a movie Raiders of the Lost Ark but then most of the movies are about a found Ark I mean who cares anymore just do what you want if it's not mean anything you can pull the heart out of another man and scream Colleen Mall I mean anybody can do that but that wasn't Raiders of the Lost Ark I said Indiana Jones the bridge thing yeah and also if you don't have a ticket you'll get tossed out of a that one Yeah, right? I stroked that from under my head. Another movie I don't have to see says Razor Radon. Razor Random. Razor Radon? Dangerous. Right? I have a perception for that. Top Men says Iron Fox 10. Are you talking about two separate movies, guys? Top Gun and Maverick? The Nuggets movie? Yeah. There's no movie called Top Gun and Maverick. There's a Top Gun and Maverick. Watch out. I feel like when George plays, there needs to be like a... Why are you hitting this? Oh, no. Why am I hitting what? When George plays, everyone needs to back up six feet. It's COVID rules all over again. Yeah, sorry. I kick. It's a thing. George is patient. Watch out. Space bitch. Well, you could, Sammy. Sammy! I'm wearing a shirt specifically for you. I saw, thank you. I really wish you would. Sammy, I'm wearing a shirt. Has anyone asked if George has a Toy Story on the way, says G-Black? I do not. Is that only because pre-orders don't open for another 12 hours? You can put your name in with a lot of distributors way ahead of time. Are you not interested at this time? I'm just not interested. Toy Story doesn't do it for me. What kind of noun story do you want? On that... The never-ending. I guess it's not a noun. There we go. It would be a great theme. It would be a great theme! I'm so sorry, Dice. I interrupted you. Sorry. What'd you say? I said if we're going Pixar, like, give me an Incredibles pinball machine. I would take Incredibles. Give me a Wall-E pinball machine with a bunch of creepy, like, old music. Give me a pinball network rating of 30. And the pathetic voices of Pinball Network. All right. First question, you guys. Welcome, Raiders. Welcome. I feel like the never-ending story just says a whole lot of nothing. George, speaking of children's stories, we've got a first question. Hold on. Wait a second. We all have to just take a second and appreciate the amazing pun. I missed it. Oh, my gosh. Surreal. Can you please say that again? Because you get plus five for that. Yeah. I don't know. That might have been a one-stop thing. He said that. The never-ending story's got a whole lot of nothing. Oh. That's pretty good. Number four. Jay-Z, you're up. I'm playing? You're playing. I'll give five points to whoever can name the antagonist in Neverending Story 3. Jack Black. Starring Jack Black. I'm sorry, there was a Neverending Story 3? There's four of them. And it had Jack Black in it. I know what we're doing. The story definitely should have ended. Yeah. After. But does anybody know the second antagonist? I haven't seen any of those movies in so long. No, it's not. It's a story end, but final fantasy keeps going. I'm not talking about actors. In the first movie, it was the Nothing. In the second movie, it was... Well, wait a second. Was the Nothing the antagonist, or what was the name of the bad guy, the wolf that chased him? Well, that was the same part of the same thing. No, no. He was a different being whose sole job it was to try and kill the person who could potentially saved, but it was different than the nothing. Quick answer. And his name, come on, somebody help me out. It was the same guy? No, it was like Gmork. Oh my god, it was Gmork. Didn't you just watch it? I did totally just watch it. Okay, well that's true. It's true. Yeah, the rest of us saw like 20 years ago. Yeah, should I enable my R-Tex emotes just for tonight? Do you have R-Tex emotes? Do it, do it, do it. I do indeed. Oh my god, please enable them. Does our text slowly fall into the... No, it's not animated. That would be amazing. Sorry, I looked it up. So we're not going to... And then I realized that it really bums everybody out, so I... Yeah, our text does make everybody... The antagonist of the second never-ending story was the emptiness. Wait, different than the nothingness? There was the emptiness. It was, yes. Boy, is that give up writing. My God. Right, exactly. Right, right. So, we've got a theme here. We've got the nothing. The empty. The emptiness. So, what was the third one? Was it... Hi, Mr. Hardluck. The darkness? It's the band of things, I believe, and a thing called... It's way off. It's way off. What was it? The nasties. It was called the nasties? Oh my gosh. I don't like that. I was about to say, was it the whales from the fourth star? Someone in chat got it. Good looking emotes. Hi, Irvine. Oh my god, that is a two-part emote with, what's his face, pulling out R-Tax from the bog of despair. Frisco, thank you so much for that, Ray. Thank you so much for hanging out. By the way, Frisco Pinball was streaming on TPN tonight and doing a virtual pinball. Is today Monday or Tuesday? Monday. Today's Monday. So Frisco was just hanging out and decided, wait, Frisco, wait, I thought TPN raided us. They did? I'm so confused as to what day this is. But either way, Frisco Pinball has a stream coming up tomorrow where he gets to interview, Frisco, who are you interviewing tomorrow? TPN was Frisco tonight. I'm so sorry, Joe, for talking over you. Well, it's your show, George. I'm just going to let you talk, and then I'll provide information. This was me feeding you that. Like, imagine you're at the news desk, and you touch your ear, like, I'm hearing that TPN tonight was Frisco Pitterall. He was playing Godzilla. Late breaking reports indicate he approached a personal best, but we don't know yet if he made it. Oh, no. No, no, no. Let's hear it for further evidence. Did you get that Monster Zero or Terror from Mechagodzilla hiding? No. Did you do that stuff? And while we're waiting for his response, so he, I think, is doing one of his Tuesday night streams tomorrow where he focuses entirely on a different VM, sorry, virtual pinball developer, and it's Major Frenchy, who I also think we had, where is he? We had Game Club Central in here earlier, Marty, who also just did an interview with Major Frenchy as well, so super popular VPN person here recently. So make sure to check in on Frisco Pinball tomorrow to check out that very cool dedication. And Frisco got to Monster Zero and a new G.C. of $1.5 billion. Well done, sir. Way to go, buddy. Major Christopher Franchi makes me think of Grease. Of Grease? Yeah, the beauty school dropout. I have never seen Grease. Really? Yeah. What's your favorite movie? Really? Wasn't it your mom's favorite movie? I don't know. Oh, no, wait. That was Dirty Dancing. It was Dirty Dancing and Overboard and Romancing the Stone. I think that's so good. Oh, I have them. I have them. I have them. Okay. I got it. You'll have to watch to find out. You want to lay it out? It's not that compelling. First question of the night. Oh, wow. We have a first question. All right. Let's see. I'm going to go with Joe Hill just because he's got a differential advantage. A differential advantage. Now I'm terrified, differentially speaking. Oh, I didn't realize you stepped up, Sammy. I'm so sorry. I would have called on you, too. You're next. Okay. And then I'm going to go for real. This question seems derivative. Yeah. And then, I mean, yeah, it's just, What is bad advice for the kid's first day at school? I mean... Bad advice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I guess what I want to know is how much don't I like this kid? Whose kid is this? Yours. Yours. Wait, bad advice to give to your own kid? I'm not going to give my kid bad advice. No, bad advice. No, I'm just saying a kid, but I'm saying it's your kid. It's just bad advice. It's bad advice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But if I'm getting... What was bad advice to your... I get people's bad advice all the time, and I target it to how much I dislike them, right? All right. You're telling the kids, lick everything, and lick the teacher. This is what I'm going to say. And, like, bad advice to a kid's first day at school is, like, pick the biggest kid you see, go up to him, punch him in the freaking face, and then you dominate the playground. Oh, well, there's mine. Like prison yard rules, right? Higher Peanut says ignore the bullying. It'll stop. Oh, my gosh. Were you in the 1980s? Okay, so... You know, I just hand them a copy of, you know, there's this great instruction manual for fighter pilots who might get shot down over Vietnam about their obligations to oppose their enemy captors. Here you go. Every opportunity you can have to frustrate the administration. You want to do what you can to undermine the physical structure of the building. You want to psychologically undermine your captors. You want to encourage the other people around you to band together, develop secret methods of communication, to work around whatever structures are put in place against you. You know, just straight up POW resistance stuff. I think it's probably the strongest play I can make here. Oh my word! that is a very strong play I thought it was bad advice yeah alright Sammy yeah Sammy I just tell them they're going to Hogwarts and then she's in action I didn't learn any magic today oh my gosh I've got a story after that but yeah it was like a little thing that I saw I was like you don't teach them math or arithmetic you don't teach them life skills No, but they know how to lift a feather. You don't teach them how to read? Alohomora. Obviously. Who needs to read when you can lift heavy objects? In fairness, everyone in Star Wars is functionally illiterate. There's a reason all of their histories are stored in holograms that talk to them. I need to, really quick, I'm so sorry to interrupt, but I said alohomora, which is how you unlock a door, not when you are in Leviosa. I just wanted to clarify, like, I'm a huge Harry Potter fan, and I made a, like, bumbling idiot-style mistake there, and I have claimed it and fixed it. I apologize. Please continue. See, I thought you were speaking Hawaiian. I was like, wow, George, we're going really far west. I didn't get the Rockies shirt on. But, you know, that's like a few time zones past that. That's terrible. All right, let's, uh, for real. Well, really quick, Devancrates says arithmancy was mass. Okay. Arithmancy? Devancrates. Devancrates, okay. Oh, my favorite philosopher, Devancrates. Yes, exactly. Who wrote the Inferno. Do you mean Dante? Dante? Yes. I like that, Devin. I don't know. It just sounded like Dante, so I went with it. Sorry, who was up next? Surreal. Surreal. What's your bad advice? My first inclination was literally to shiv the biggest kid on the yard. I don't know. It'll be okay. Mommy and Daddy will pick you up at the end of the day right here. A bad advice? Are you just planning on abandoning your child? That's the plan. Okay. Okay. They're in a states problem now. That's all I got. Porgy. I would tell the kids that everything at this school is voice activated. Like the doors, the toilet, the water fountain. All right. MJ. That's good. Oh boy. You know, I knew it was coming to me and I didn't take any time to think about this. Um Hmm Voice activated real good Thank you I like that one a lot. That is excellent. Yeah. Yeah, mine defaulted to like, like bullying is cool, basically. Like, hey, if you see something that you don't like about someone, you should mention it. Okay. Okay. It'll, it'll chop them up. Yeah. Just tell them you're doing them a favor when they get mad. Being unique is bad. Yeah. Polly. No, don't strike the hook. I would tell them that their, uh, their classmate boogers taste better than mine. Wow. Dad, I'm in high school. well you you gotta learn sometime right well like like the one I used was an example but like my legit one would be that there's an Olympic size Paloma roof I think I've heard that one before if Dante wrote about the nine circles of hell what did Devin Devin Crusty write about the nine circles of what unfortunately Hopefully this name doesn't roll off the tongue, at least it did. Nine circles of Call of Duty? You know, like it needs to be... Devancreaty? Devancreaty? I mean, if it was Devon, D-E-V-O-N, then it... Insanity Falls, what part are you at? I mean, I think that Devancreaties really does... As long as you have Devancreaties, like, I think that works. I still like divine crates divine crates pretty good that is pretty good sounds like something you would get at like in Fortnight is a divine crate or blood or lobby hobby lobby actually smuggled a lot of divine crates out of the rock that's true so you know there's something local there hey mp3k glad you could welcome Manu Manu Manu Now there is a man who knows about smuggling freights out of a rock. Um, if Twitter had exit messages, we would have just seen Lin from Anu. So, are we ready for another question? I think everybody has an answer. I think everybody has an answer. But I think, doesn't like, not Streamlabs, but doesn't something like support, can't we like, I'm sure Hadi can encode it. And Manu actually knows how to code. And Leon Board, I'm sure you can recognize somebody. Oh wait, sorry, sorry. No, no, no, not everybody. Dive. Yes, you could probably. Dice did not answer. Dice, you haven't answered? Dice, no. No, nobody asked me. Dice, what is your bad advice for a kid? Yeah, exit and check. Anytime someone's making fun of you, just keep telling them over and over it's fake news and asking them if they know who your dad is. Wow. Someone said tell them lunches are communal. that's a really good one so our lunches are communal and if you see something you want in a friend's lunch box it's fair game I feel like that's the way you become the most popular kid in school you just walk up and grab something like what? it's such a power move I guess we're friends now you just gave your kid the most the most like subtle sense of self-confidence ever, and they don't even know it. That's not bad advice. That's good advice. Yeah, but then they grow up to run for president, so. Yeah, well, yeah. Cry all the time about everything. It shows other kids that you're sensitive and kind. I can't find the shock. It was just the right round. I was so close. So funny. You're so good about fighting other shots. You're so upset about winning. Well, no, no. Janelle hasn't played yet. Oh, that's like the whole four seconds that we're going to lose here. By the way, MJ and I, when you texted us earlier today and invited us over, we were hoping that you were going to say anything else other than rescue. Anything besides TMNT, I'm so sorry. Like, to the point where I thought it might have been a joke, because you know I don't like the game. Oh, no, I'm sorry. I have the battle coming up on Thursday. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You've got to get the practice in. And Shredder's Revenge is coming out on Thursday. You got it, you got it, you're good, you're good. Keep playing, keep playing. So, I know that there's, like, an official structure to the questions here. But, like, George, here's the thing. No, it is not. Like, I had a co-worker once who was just like, we both have kids that are about the same age, and he says to me as we're walking back from lunch one day, he's like, Joe, you know, the world's just really screwed up. Like, do you ever just feel bad for bringing a kid into a world that's this screwed up? And I was just like, no, because clearly if the world is this screwed up, it needs more people like my kid. in order to fix it. Like, where do you fall on that kind of, like, response to, like, okay, the world's not perfect and I have a kid spectrum? I am on the even a crappy life is the life that is an opportunity, and I would never give up. So I would hope that whatever kid I birth has a similar mentality of never giving up. There's always an option. Science can be quite amazing, especially if you're learned and know what you're doing. So, yeah, at no point would I – I don't subscribe to that mentality. How about that? Yeah, because, like, you know, there's this famous Mr. Rogers quote, like, when kids are upset about things in the news, you tell them to look for the helpers, right? But that's advice for three-year-olds, not advice for adults, you know? No, that is advice for adults. That is advice for every adult who grew up watching Mr. Rogers. What I'm saying is the advice for adults is be the helpers, right? Like, raise your kids. Okay, if the world that we're going to have our kids live in for the next 50 to 100 years is going to be terrible, raise our kids to be the people that make the world better. George was talking about, like, science can improve a lot. Like, okay, we'll make sure that our kids can either be scientists or help fund the sciences or, you know, do whatever they can to, like, make things different. You don't need to accept the status quo. Can I ask permission to get a little serious for a second? Okay. My daughter is 20, and she's about to have a child this week. And she has always been, she started out like Zoe, right? Like, very emboldened, very impassioned, very unafraid to be her goofy self, right? Like, I just, like, I see a lot of similarity between Alex and Zoe, frequently, right? And very caring about others, and I have that, like, this kid is the kid that's going to embrace and be the good for the next generation, right? Like she would always, like whenever we were in a store and the store was in a disarray, she'd be caring about like putting the stuff in order and putting it back. Like let's not leave the place in a mess. All that aside, she is now 20 and she is of an equality mindset. She's been in the military. She's in Space 4. She's an electrical engineer. Yeah, electrical engineer. Yeah, yeah. She is an engineer. She's an electrical engineer. And she recently got married, and she called me the other day, and she said, Mama, my new in-laws say things that are not okay with accepting of all individuals. What do I do? They say things that are not very racially okay, sexistly okay. And she's like, what do I do? And I say, you just say, I don't appreciate that. And you walk away. because it lets people know that that is not your mindset. If you're not comfortable getting into a confrontation, it just disallows the person from further interacting with you because interacting with you is a privilege. And just, that's not okay. And you move away. So how does this feed then back into Joe's question about whether or not you have... That's making the world a better place. That's not feeding into rhetoric that arguments and stuff, like feeding into that need for arguments and stuff. Like, I'm right. This is, I need to defend my position. This is, you know what? You said something I don't agree with. I'm just going to choose not to engage. and I'm going to tell you I'm going to choose not to engage because I think it's inappropriate and I'm going to move away. And especially if you have better things to do, right? She's an electrical engineer. She's working on systems that could save people's lives or if a mistake could cost someone's life, right? She doesn't need to be stressing about her in-laws. If they want to be bigoted, she just needs to say, I don't have the energy for that. I'm working as part of a team to help people, keep people alive in space, and I'm going to do my best at that. I'm not going to let them drag me into their nonsense. I love that. My life is too important to be brought down by your stupid shit. Right. And there was a time in my life that I looked at people and I just said, you know what, that's inappropriate. And I walked away. That's inappropriate. I just walked away. Huh. Okay. So, taking your kids to the point to embrace themselves and to love themselves and to know that they are... I tell you, my daughter is Gen Z. And the next generation, did you hear Gen Z's argue with baby boomers who are bedded? Oh, my word. This is insane. Somebody said, thank you for sending the shirt, George. yep all good sorry it took so long to get that by the way you can log in on this but you should definitely oh yeah we should all log in so yeah that's the kids are the kids of the future right they are going to be here dealing with this pujo after we are gone and and it's not that we're we're giving them a world that's crap it's we're raising warriors to combat the crap. I like that. We're raising warriors to combat the crap. Do you guys see everything everywhere? Oh, yes. Yes. What a fantastic movie. Oh my gosh. I should pull the googly eyes out of my face. Don't log in because we're not online. Sorry. No, we're not online. No, I switched my Wi-Fi around and I forgot. This is the first time I played this since I switched the Wi-Fi. Cult of aggressive kindness is a fantastic phrase. Imagine cults of aggressive kindness. Isn't that feminism? I wish people like Mr. Rogers were the ones who ended up with cult following. The world is just a mess and I need to rule it. That is Dr. Horrible's sing-along blog. Ah, that's nice. So everything is all at once the coin of the movie, right? If nothing matters, everything is beautiful. I like that. I always told my son, Son, I'm never going to give up on you. I'm never going to let you down. I'm never going to let you down. I'm never going to say goodbye. You know, leaving chat messages would probably be terrible. Just watch everyone leave. What? Did you just quote School of Rock? All right, first mode. You want next question for goofiness? Works for me. All right, I'm going to start with Dice this time. Dice, you still there? Yep, I'm still here. Which animal would you, which animals, sorry, multiple, would you like to mix together to make the next great species to take the world by storm? Duck-filled platypus and a wolverine. A duck-filled platypus and a wolverine. I like it. Can you provide insight as to why? Can you imagine that thing running at you if you're outside camping at 3 a.m.? Okay, so like what properties of each animal would come forth in the propagation? It would have the flippers of the duck-billed platypus and the face of the wolverine but the snout of the duck-billed platypus. Would it be poisonous? And the tail of the wolf but the rump of the duck-billed platypus. Okay, so it would be poisonous if it has the rump of the duck-billed platypus. Yes. It maintains the wolf teeth. I love how detailed you got there. That was great. All right. And we are going to Joe. Oh, boy. So I'm thinking about this, and I'm thinking whale is a good one because it's a giant mammal. And then you take some other mammal that traditionally isn't that giant. And you mix it with the whale. Now, I'm not sure exactly what the optimal thing there would be, but, like, maybe an octopus whale. That's not a mammal, but you get back into crockin' territory, you know? People would be like, hey, what's crock-a-lockin', you know? I'm talking about, like, a giant cuttlefish. But like, I mean, really just having some giant squids rolling around. You know, they have giant brains. And we're wasting all this computational power on like hash and bitcoin. Like, maybe we should try to ask something with a giant brain something more meaningful. I don't know. Okay. Fair enough. I'm going to go local and whoop! Oh gosh. Bumper. I'm not ready. Go bumper. Go bumper. Go bumper. Two. It just said animals. It didn't say two. Animals? It just said two. It just said animals. I'm just going to go with a patu and another patu. What's a patu? It's a bird. Yeah, it is a bird. It's a bird of prey. It's a... It is... No, it's not a bird of prey. For somebody who plays D&D, I'm mighty disappointed in how unavented that was. Oh, wow. You just got called out. Oh, no. He looks so sarcastic. I'm not feeling so offended. Hurt now. Bloop, bloop. He does not look at the leaf. Paul has an inordinate amount of confidence. That is a... Oh, my God. What? Oh. That is no... Wait. Joe says we're getting close to Hitchhiker's Guide or something. I missed it. Oh, yeah. I thought so, too. with a super smart whale. Oh, yes. Oh! Joe said mix a... I have a tattoo of that! Joe said mix a whale with an octopus. Like the brain of an octopus. Okay. I mean, I led with... I told you I wasn't ready. Okay, you did. All right, I'll come back. I'll circle back. Would you like me to circle back? For the rest of... Cameras... This is a patu. That is... Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Chat? That's not coming through. Paul, turn it on the play field. There you go. There you go. It's blurry. It's blurry. It's blurry. It's blurry. There we go. Perfect. No, wait. No, flip it up. Put it on that play field camera. Hold it the same distance away from the camera as George's face. It's focusing on George's face. So if you put it. Perfect. Hold it next to George. Remember, the auto focus isn't on the play field camera. Oh, we never put it back. It's an adorable Muppet bird. George, did we never switch it back to... I haven't said that. Yeah, that'll focus on it. There it is. George, did we never switch it back to... No, no, no. He switched it to that camera. The play field is set to manual focus. No, I mean... Keep them calm here, DC. Okay. Do the things... Hi, Jedi. Jedi! Okay. Sorry. What was the animal again? Patu. I'm going to circle back because I want a more interesting... Somebody just... Oh, okay. So I should get my... Pure retro coming in. Bringing 12 beautiful people over. Thank you so much. We have... That is my hat. That is my new favorite hat, by the way. The thinking cap. That is totally my hat. I told you I was going to steal it. That is Dave and Alex who just raided us from Pure Retro Colorado. Awesome stream. They stream retro gaming. Amazing conversations between Alex and Dave. And we have Dave actually coming here for Don't Tell Anyone. But we have an Iron Pinball matchup this Thursday. But that's not the one that I'm referring to here because Dave's going to come in and help commentate for a matchup between Zach McCarthy and Escher Lefkoff, which is going to be Iron Pinball Episode 3 happening on, I think it's June 25th. So that's like number one in the world versus like number, I think I'm guessing like in the top 20 or 30 in the world for a day here. We're going to have him in for like four or five hours playing on all these games. It's going to be insane. And Dave's coming here to help commentate on that because I'm not good enough to understand what Zach and Escher are doing on these games, but Dave is good enough because Dave is right up there in the top, like, four or five hundred, I think. Like, he can follow along and do an amazing job of not only commentating, but letting us know the thinking behind what Escher and Zach might be doing. Read that. Read that. Read that. Where is the chicken? Yeah, I don't know. The chicken's gone. The chicken may have been thrown out. Tracy, are you in the chat? Maybe. Outer Spacey Tracy, or Tracy from Outer Spacey. However, what just happened? Why did I get a different hat? What? I don't know what you're talking about. Welcome to the stream, and thank you for joining us this evening. No, thank you. Tracy, you're like my favorite person. All right, so all of the players that George just mentioned reside in Colorado. For context here. Hold on, I've got to pause you because there's some amazing news. George, George, did Tracy hear the news? I don't know. Tracy, did you hear the ticket news today? I heard that someone snagged me a ticket to Dory Hill, and I'm like about to cry. I'm like so excited. I'm so excited to play SoundVoltax in Colorado. Oh, heck yeah. Oh, and then I drain. I'm also dancing like that, Janelle. This is actually how I'm right now. For context, though. Yeah, for context. George, in Colorado, on IFPA, is 220th in this state. Okay, wow. A failure. 220th. Yeah. 2-2-0-T-H. That's pretty bottom of the barrel, I feel like, in the South. There are 220 people. There are a lot of people in that state. Do you know how many people play pinball? It's highly saturated. There are a lot of people that play pinball. It's highly saturated. It's at least 225. Thank you. It's a real thank you. All right, so Dave Anderson, who's commentating, is 93rd in the state. Okay. Wow. Mr. Anderson. Mr. Anderson Well Pure Retro thank you again so much for that Raven for bringing those beautiful people over Oh I'm just catching up Pure Retro said whoa let's slow down I'm mediocre Yeah but Pure Retro you are in the top 1000 so you get the special pinball machines from the IFPA Zach McCarthy who is playing in this is 5th in the state. Yeah, that's it. In the state. Where is Zach McCarthy in the world? Who is Zach McCarthy? In the world? That's Z-Mac. So, Zach, by the way, okay, here, here, hold on, hold on. We're going to jog for a second about this. Zach, I met at Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown, and I brought an amazing, amazing LE version of Magneto to the Rocky Mountain Pinball Showdown. and as we're playing, we're having fun and we have a booth at that point because we put together a league management app. This kid comes by and destroys the game, beats it, puts up a score I have never seen before in X-Men, put up like 350 million, played for like, I think it was 45, maybe 50 minutes and was like dancing as he was playing and did this cool thing I'd never seen before where he was allowing the ball to not only dead flip from one side to the other, but then dead flip again. And some said, like, bounce, bounce, bounce. Like, he was doing crazy things to regain control of the ball without touching the pinball machine, and he destroyed it. And there we go. Dr. Curly Tech, number 26 in the world. Thank you. Which I'm assuming you were just pulling. Yeah, I had a Q-Dub. Okay, you had a Q-Dub. No, no, please say it, please say it. Thanks, Doc. Escher, though. Yeah. 40th. in the state. He's number one in the world, but how is he 40th in the state? How is that even possible? Is he not enrolled in the state? Because he's 5th in California, 6th in Wisconsin, and 7th in Florida. Oh, interesting. Yeah, he doesn't play, I think, a lot in Colorado. I mean, I played him last Saturday. Yeah, so Z-Mac was the first time, because that was way before I met Escher, was the first time I had seen anybody play at a level that was like, I haven't even play pinball. I don't know what this is. And then I got to hang with Escher, and Escher was like, oh, let's just beat the game three times in one night. I mean, like, Escher's gonna, like, open up his... We never touched on where you're at in the world, though, George. Yeah, let's not. We're good. We're fine. We're fine. Hold on. We'll get there. We can easily look this up. Yeah, no, no, no. It's fine. Oh, it's only 2,274. There we go. That's pretty good. That's really good. So, Derek Price plays in all my local tournaments. Yeah. Says Jedi McMuffin. Yeah, knowing... All it does, A, it bumps up your points, and also, it's... The way competitive nature goes, and people might disagree with me entirely here, and I'm totally fine with that, but you're only as good as your competition. Meaning that if you don't have somebody who's top 10 or top 50 in the world to play against, you're probably, probably, not likely but I would assume that's holding you back. It is in your best interest to often play against people who are much, much better than you because it pushes you to get better. Yeah, George is actually higher than I am and I'm like 17th in the state. Are you really? You're in the top 7th place in the state. Why don't you come into District 82, George? I would love to come to District 82! I've been trying to rally people. Why didn't you come? Yeah, we need to set something. It's so much traveling. I just did South Carolina with my brother one last time before he shipped off. I say one last time, but he now wants, his wife is setting up a fun trip out to Orlando. They're doing Disneyland just before he ships out. I like what the condo is. Disney World. Disney World. Thank you. Not Disneyland. I appreciate that. Yep. Yeah. So they're trying to get me to go do that. And I'm like, it's, but he ships out August 4th. fourth, I think, to go to Kuwait. And there's just a lot of stuff. My brother's active military, and this will be his fourth tour in active military. And then when he gets back, he hits the last three years, I think, of your... of being in the military. You're in it for so long. The last three years are the three years that you can't be shipped out, and essentially you can't be fired. You're in, it's almost like tenure at a college, I think, except it's your final three years before you hit retirement. So when he gets back, he's good, and obviously he's going to come back because we're super positive. There's also the special care instances to where he could get called up, but it's extremely rare. Why would you even say that? That's not helpful to this conversation. 9-11 was called up. Oh my god! What? I mean, to focus on the positive side of this, if he's got 17 years in when he comes back, they're going to want him training new people. They're not going to want to send him over necessarily. Exactly, yes. And so there's a lot to do stateside where he could be more influential than if he was over there. Okay. J.D., you're up. I'm going to practice, George, for when we go drinking around the world at Epcot. Epcot! We have to do Epcot. We talked about it. I think it was your... You guys did that. No, well, we were going to do it, but then, you know, Dice got a book deal. So, everything got messed up. I just want to show where's your... It's true. Me achieving my lifelong dreams is ruining your performance. I just want to show the gap between George's head and my head when I wear his hat. I'm 99th in Colorado. That is a decent gap between the two heads. I came from high school. Do you see how big your head is compared to mine? Yes, I have a big head. George is very awake. Yeah, we know you have a big head. Everybody knows you have a big head. Please make sure you turn the mic off. Continue. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Cool. Unplug, dude. Hey, Dorkster, welcome to the stream. Yo. All right. To be fair, that hat didn't need to fit all of Dustin's hair under it. There's a lot of hair. Now, I just gave this eye to my head, and it's crazy. Are you saying you have a lot of hair? Huh? No. Did you just open yourself up for that? It's crazy how much it requires me to expand. Like, right now, I'm at three on this one, but if I let my hair grow out, I have to open it up to a two. You do have pretty thick hair. You are pretty thick. Do you know your hat size? I am five and, uh, sorry, seven and five eighths. Ow. And I think that's mainly the hair. Ow! Yes. You have a lot of hair. It's more than your giant head. That's because of all your brains. I don't know my snapback size, but I oddly know my Stetson size. Interesting. I mean, okay. I'm a solid eight and a half when I'm rocking a cowboy hat. Nice. Okay. Okay. What? Time to spend my enemy's blood. Oh, yeah, Insanity Falls. I'm not reading that. It's a video game. Don't mind us. I'm not going to read that out loud. So we got the opportunity to hang out with Insanity Falls at, it wasn't Expo. Wait, was that Expo or TPS? I think it was TPS. I don't know. I've totally mixed the two together because since COVID, I have had no ability to chronologically order things. Oh, yeah. Go for it. And this is shaved head. So it's just, it's like just my skin. If my hair gets long enough, I got to go to a T. I know it's the hat you were given, George, and not the hat you started with, but that being a cookies hat, it looks so much more believable that Paul would try to sell me edibles than he would. A thinking cat. Try to sell edibles, though? Well, cookies is a dispensary in California. It is? Yes. Where in California? Dice probably knows. I don't even, um, I don't actually even, uh, partake. I also don't partake. But if dice were here, I would partake. When I was heavily streaming, I was also heavily saving. What? Really? Oh, I gotta go feed kittens. I'll be right back. Okay. Uh, okay. I don't know if it's slang for, like, I gotta take some edibles, too, or if he's got some food. You know, right? I gotta go feed the kittens. Ooh. It's like, you know what eats his tiny cats? It also gets a little weird. I have been watching Nothing But She-Ra with Zoe for the past, like, two weeks. Hey, Fantasma, this is my second time through the She-Ra television show, and I think it's either three or four seasons. Funny. but there's Catra and the writing in She-Ra is up there with My Little Pony. It is so good. There's so much adult humor in that show. I know you mean that in a good way but when I think about that sentence in the abstract does that appear in the New York Times? It's like writing in She-Ra is up there with My Little Pony. Seeing that in Times New Roman in print It's like, oh boy. No, no, no, but my little ponies... I didn't know they came up with a new Shira. I was just like, all of a sudden your daughter's watching the 1985 series Shira? The chick. No, no. The chick. No, no, no. The new one. And the new one is so great because it takes the general idea of Shira and empowers her so much more. There's so much more backstory as to how the energy and magic of the world they're on in Etheria got there. and also why Etheria exists and why these other entities outside the world of Etheria want in. And it deals with the concept of clones and hive minds. It goes way deep into science fiction. And on top of that, it is probably the single most inclusive show I have ever experienced. Like, one of my favorite characters in Trapta, who's basically Donatello, with the worst case of Asperger's Syndrome you've ever heard of. Like, it's fantastic. Every part of She-Ra is just wonderful. And when I say something like it is comparable to My Little Pony, remember, My Little Pony has episodes where the entire thing is a D&D game in one episode. and another one references the Big Lebowski and Doctor Who at the same time. And another one... I didn't know that was on it, so... Weird Al, yeah, absolutely. I know what you mean, George. I'm not trying to call you out on this, but, like... No, no, no, but I have to, like, defend myself there. I appreciate both ways, you know? I look at, like, how does this make sense to somebody like me, and how does this make sense to somebody completely on the outside, you know? No, totally. But, like, I mean, my exposure to the show, my kid was trying to watch Arthur on the PBS app and every time she tried to click on an episode it would start playing the audio from multiple episodes simultaneously and she was just fine with it because she's a child who can just watch an episode of Arthur with three different audio streams and I'm like trying to work in the corner and I'm like no you can't watch this right now and she's like what's wrong and I'm like this is three different episodes of Arthur simultaneously I cannot do my work and listen to this. Like, let's see what's on Netflix. Okay, there's a new She-Ra. Let's put that on. And I put that on, and I did this elaborate thing on Twitter where I pretended, I was like, oh, you know, I'm watching this thing with my kid. It's like a gender-bent interpretation of Egyptian mythology. It's interesting they've taken the concept of Ra as a godhead, which is traditionally split into multiple parts, and spread it between She-Ra and Cat-Ra and theoretically other elements of the Ra aspects throughout the show. I'm curious to see where they go with this. Oh, okay, so this character is the archer. That represents this from Egyptian mythology. But, like, I mean, it's just a good show. You know, I was bragging on it on Twitter with that. What's his name? The Arch-Bo. It was on Netflix, and it is now at my watch list. It's called Bo is the Archer. Yeah. And Bo is great. Bo, it's just that constantly looking for positive ways to think of every situation, and you end up learning so much over time. Like a good Netflix television series, there are entire episodes dedicated to... What is going on here? What's on my head? Your mic? Okay. Entire episodes dedicated to character build certain characters along the way, and Bo and his family is fantastic. I don't want to spoil any of it for you. George, did Kevin Smith only do the new He-Man or did he do She-Ra 2? No, he just did He-Man. Yeah. Didn't he also do Clerks? He also did Clerks, Chasing Amy, Mallrats, and then a whole bunch of movies nobody cares about. Hey, Red State was great. I really liked that. Red State was great. That was a good horror movie. Thank you. Yeah, it was. Red State's awesome. By the way, Clerks 3 is coming. out. Clerks too had moments. Like, there is a good quotable line. Hey, also Dogma's great. Oh, you're right. I'm so sorry. Jed and McMuffin. Dogma was fantastic. Yeah, there's a lot of quotable lines from Clerks too. You never, I can't say it, but you never go, uh, to mouth. Sometimes you do. When you're done chewing down all the no-no parts of your lover, you kiss him, right? Wow. When was Mikey? Never got that ball save. And yes, Tracy, that's absolutely where I was going with that. Just to confirm, it's ass, right? Yes, it is. Sorry, I don't want to say that. You can say it. It's a sailboat. It's a schooner. It's a schooner. So, I have a signed DVD of Mallrats from Kevin Smith that I have met Kevin Smith before, but he did not sign it when I purchased that. It was just at a DVD store on sale for $10 because they didn't notice it was a signed copy of Mallrats. Wow. See, the only thing I have signed from Kevin Smith is when I met him, I had him sign my Bluntman and Chronic Acting Figures. Oh, yeah. I did get a chance to meet Stanley and had him sign my copy of Mallrats as well. So it's signed by Kevin Smith and Stanley. Oh, my God. That's awesome. And Stanley was in Mallrats if you weren't familiar with the movie. Yeah. and there was also a callback to that in Captain Marvel wait a second just don't don't answer it let me just think about that where is there a callback it was Stan Lee's cameo in Captain Marvel yeah and he talked about the why is he so hyper focused on superheroes junk is there a reference to that yes he was reading the Mallrats script on the bus Oh. Hmm. I don't remember. Oh, that would make sense because, yeah, because Captain Marvel takes place in the 90s, so he would have been preparing for his role in Mallrats. Hilarious. I don't know if he actually plays Stan Lee in that case, if he's preparing for his role in Mallrats. Is Stan Lee on the bus actually Stan Lee on the bus? I'm not sure about the bus but Stan Lee is Stan Lee in Mallrats good old Stan Lee where did Jay Z go? I think he went to the restaurant why is everybody going to the restaurant? I think he went to also Sammy left and she just bounced out okay well while we're waiting the next question by the way we have actual cards with these questions, which are fantastic. It was a card game called The Shame of Life. This one is, Netflix wants to do a special about you. Where would you prefer them to get their material? Interviews with your exes or hidden cameras in your house? Tracy, you go first. My exes are all pretty awful, but somehow I still feel like that would be better than just buying me meat. And I feel like if it's an ex, it's like, oh, okay, we've got to take this with a grain of salt because obviously they're an ex for a reason, so there's got to be some level of... Right, right, you would take that with a grain of salt. I'm going to hide behind that. I'm going to hide behind that and say, yeah, don't look at me in my private place. This is my home. I'm surrounded by my own filth. Like, please don't watch me. Okay. The real, same question to you. Would you choose X's, interviews of X's, or hidden cameras? Oh, he's feeding kittens. That's right. He's still feeding kittens. My bad. Okay, cool. Moving on then. Feeding kittens. Yeah, we never figured out what that was code for. But it's not a code. He's actually feeding kittens. Oh, no, I took it off. It's over there. And it's muted, so you've got to turn it back on. Dice, you're up next. Sign me up for the cameras because I know all of my exes would lie about something. At least with the cameras, you know what you're seeing was real. Okay. Okay. But that's part of the fun. Yeah, I'm with Tracy on this one. I like the fact that there's nothing better in a story than an unreliable narrator. And there's no one more unreliable than my exes. My wife doesn't want one. So if you really want to watch it, tune in. If that's what you get your rocks off to, Go ahead. Huh. Okay. Okay. Joe, you're up next. Yeah. Like I said, I'm with Tracy on this one. Unreliable narrators, give it to my exes, you know. Okay. You're going to get the most interesting story that way. Okay. I feel like I'm way more boring than people assume I am. And let's just filter that through a lens of whatever that is. Oh, I totally misunderstood. I thought Tracy said to stay the F out of my personal life, but like don't talk to my exes. No, no, no. Just stay out of my private place, which is my bedroom. Ah, got it, got it. Okay, so the question is, now that Paul's here in-house, we've got Netflix wants to do a special about you. Where would you prefer them to get material? Interviews with your exes or hidden cameras in your house? gotta be X's Paul come on do you want in on this I mean I do want an interactive one I do interviews with my X's okay interviews with X's I mean I'm the only one here with two X's okay nope I only have one MJ you're up for X's yeah so this is how you can tell MJ went to film school there's this documentary on Netflix called The Rolling Roadshow Review Rolling Thunder Review a Bob Dylan story directed by Martin Scorsese and it's a documentary about Bob Dylan's 1976 tour and the thing about that tour is there was nothing remarkable about it whatsoever to the point where when Scorsese approached Dylan about making the documentary, he was like, I don't remember that story. Nothing happened. So they just made a bunch of stuff up. They like invented characters. There's a guy who was like the tour photographer in the documentary that they interview about being on tour with him who's clearly too young to have been alive when they did the tour. He's probably just got a good skincare routine. No, they just made him up. He's literally just a made up kid. So he's just lying the entire time about what it was like to be on the Rolling Thunder Review. Okay, in fairness, a lot of vampires pretend that they weren't alive for things. Sure. But it uses that sort of, like, artificiality to talk about where America was in 1976. Like, it's the Bicentennial, but it's, like, a few years after Vietnam. The hippie movement had ended. So it says a lot about, like, what was happening at the time. Gordon Lightfoot. I grew this, like, half documentary, half artificial. Okay. Have you ever heard Bob Dylan talk? Like, he's not really making you excited. You know what I mean? They even invented a guy named Gordon Lightfoot. Say that again, Tracy? They even invented a guy named Gordon Lightfoot. That's hilarious. I mean, that does sound like a made-up name, if you think about it. I would say that Bob Dylan, if you think about it, is not the most exciting person. so what do you mean I mean yeah he's totally yeah well he also lied a lot in his autobiography Chronicle Volume 1 so anyway interviews with exes because that's way more fun and I think through that like layer of artificiality you can learn a lot about a person so I mean the man was in a movie called Mastin Anonymous right like that his entire career and he done pretty okay with that idea of like truth through artifice Okay okay Sorry, so to answer the question, would you prefer X's? Okay, got it. Okay, wait, also, does anybody here speak Latin? Because I don't, like, have a formal family crest, but, like, whatever truth through artifice is, I want that in Latin. That is gold. I love it. It could be Veritas something. Yeah, Veritas is crazy. I believe I just called fake news. I'm crazy. I don't want to be fake news. Just call fake news, man. Just fake news. Oh, no. I'm too culturally relevant to be cool. I mean, this is 2022. It does make sense to have fake news on a family crest. So I'm going to be the black sheep here, and I'm going to say my day-to-day life, but post-divorce, like at half and start or like about the time I moved out because that's about the time my life got super interesting or maybe my life got interesting shortly before that because I mean I've like like I have like looked through my journals since then and holy sugar snap my life was an HBO special like like from like going to the Dominican Republic and being pass out of my hotel room to lots of interesting, intimate encounters with multiple people and lots of drama that I did not welcome, but it just, it happened, and lots of self-discovery and becoming a young grandmother. And, yeah. So I, like, but, like, just, like, yeah, in the past couple of years, I would have to say that, yeah. following me around, other than, like, me probably scratching my butt. Like, I don't know. Which I'm sure they edit that out of the Kardashians. Also, fake news in Latin is one word. Well, keep in mind, though, that stuff that they edit out for television is exactly the sort of thing that makes it the YouTube supercut. here is the YouTube supercut of the butt scratching. Right. Sure, sure. Go with that. We'll just get images and, like, videos of me torturing my dog with pisses on his face. Like, there's not going to be anything interesting happening. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I mean, like, currently it is about, like, my self-betterment and, like, doing lots of homework. And there was that call I told you about earlier today that I was like, oh, my God, I can't believe that this is real life. This is a criminal. And I'm in this call. And I was in a call with. Whoa, whoa, don't give any details. No, just like a person that I'm pretty sure was a criminal. And I'm like, holy crap, this is real life. And there are times that I'm pretty sure, like once every three weeks, do I call you with like a, holy crap, this is real life? Yeah, yeah, you definitely have a lot of those moments. Yeah, so. Okay, so you would do the cameras as opposed to exes. Hi, C&K. Yeah, hi, C&K. Hello. Bonjour. Hola. I think I'm the last one to go. Is anyone else not gone? Yeah, I think we've all gone. Now we have to hear what you have to say. mine would be cameras without a question I think I'm sorry this is just your life right now this is pretty much what you do talking to strangers in front of pinball machines well maybe not just that yeah there's other stuff I would say my life you have a life outside of this this is all you do don't even lie No life. You don't even have a daughter. You're a family. You know, it's one of those things like, you know, if the government's going to surveil everything I do, might as well scream it all and make money from it. You know, I get it. I'm there. Yeah, but if it's just in my house, like, I spend multiple hours a day not in my house, but then you're just getting shots of my cats wrong. No, no, no. Assume that you'd have a camera crew, like, following you as you go do stuff outside. Are you going to say hidden cameras? Hi, Mary family. It's pretty interesting. Turtles. Interesting. They're pretty interesting. If cameras followed me around, it would really be like the Old Enough series that's on Netflix where they follow, like, four-year-old Asian kids going to the grocery store by themselves. That is my life. That's what that would be. Like the... Have you guys seen the show Terrace House? No. It's literally just, like, Japanese people living together. It's like the real world, but they don't manufacture any drama between them. So, like, the most dramatic thing that happens is someone eats all the eggs so they can't have full rice for breakfast. I don't know why that sounds wonderful. Like, the Great British Baking Show where everyone just, like, roots for everyone else. Yeah, Americanized versions of everything just totally bastardize it, you know? Like, it's always like, oh, this person is a single mom and lost her job. She has to fight for her life on the top cap or whatever the hell. Oh, my God. And then, like, is it okay? I love you anyway. You know? Friends did pretty well. It's just like silly differences like that. Oh. Well, the office, right? The office did really well. Yeah. Yeah. Friends in the office is your counter-argument to that, Tracy. Yeah, I guess office. But that's with sitcom and not, like, reality. That is scripted TV. Well, and the office also works because of the ensemble, right? So, like, if they're following me and 20 other people who are around me all the time, you're going to get a better show than just following me. I think I spend 90% of my time sitting in a chair talking on the phone. And I'm not trying to, like, diminish my accomplishments, because, like, I feel pretty good about what I do. I feel like I help people, I make stuff people enjoy, but, like, realistically, it's a visual medium film, and you're going to get more out of, like, dramatic recreations of what my exes say than just, here's a camera of Joe talking into a microphone, you know? Friends was also originally a British sitcom as well. What? No, you're kidding. Really? It really was. Now, what was... It was called Mace. Yep. Really? Yeah. Okay, this is real. You're obviously lying, but like... No, no, all this is real. But what was baptized by America that didn't hold up, still a sitcom, was the IT crowd. Oh my God, I remember that. Yeah. With Joe. With Iwadi. With Joe Hale. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Was it Joe McHale? Yeah. It was Joe McHale. Yeah. And what's your fave tube later on became Jersey? Is that Natalie Barmer? Is that her name? Let's do that. I can't remember. I mean, it says, the internet says that Friends was kind of based a little bit on a show called which I believe they also made an American version of those. They did make an American version. That's more about sex and stuff than just like friends meeting at a damn coffee house and have a monkey for some reason or something. I don't know. I've never really watched Friends, but I think that's what happens. I mean, if you did watch Friends, you would realize how much, how many vocal intonations George has similarly with Chandler. Let's start a mode. Are you trying to call me Chandler? Yeah. I don't know what to do about that right there. You put the emphasis on the second syllable of everything you say. It's so funny because I grew up with friends. Like, I matured through high school with friends. And I definitely always saw myself as Chandler. Same. Okay. Yeah, I saw you as Chandler, too. Thank you. I see you as Chandler now. and it was something that I realized like two or three months into dating you. I was like, holy potatoes. You found my Chandler. That's slander. George would never beg. Dr. Curly Tech, I love the idea. It was the episode where nobody knew what Chandler did for a living. Yeah, George definitely performed. I've done what you do for a living. There you go. George definitely analyzes Venus reports. very important. Me? Uh-huh. The meters. Is it gone? But that's the reason I would choose the cameras because just about every minute of every single one of my days is scheduled to do something. And I'll give you an example. Just tonight, I interviewed Joel in preparation for the battle and I somewhat forgot that I had scheduled that and just before that I had got home about 20 minutes before I forgot I had scheduled that interview and I had been at the gym for roughly an hour and a half and that was after working for my government job from about 8.15 this morning until it was roughly about quarter after five and I didn't get an opportunity to finish dinner because there was the interview and then while I was in that interview, I was missing texts from a friend who needed to drop off a couch. And then she showed up while I was in that interview, and we dropped off couches here. Then they came in for drinks. I had to cancel the, or basically finish the interview a little bit early. That said, I got all of the content I need because Joel is fantastic. had drinks and had just enough time to move the pinball machines before MJ got here in time for the stream. And that is like every single day because I have a standard job, a side job. I stream three nights a week, and I still try to be a parent on top of all of that and work out and go do occasionally fun things. Another reason why I do not have cameras in my house because it's like, I don't do anything like this. Like, I don't even care. People actually do share with their life. Come on. Yeah. Yeah, for real. Also, your movie would probably, or your series would end with, like, you know, rest in peace because you work for a government job and you let cameras in. So, I mean... Shortly lost his job. If a one-episode series that ends with George getting black bagged. Yep. I mean, cameras in my house would be my cat having a conversation. Yeah, you and Ludo are just hanging out? Oh, well, yeah, we have so long conversations. Yeah. I know exactly what he's saying. Yeah, 90% of cameras in my house would be all the nicknames that I have for my cats, so I got it. Okay, just so you know, I pet my cat's head with my dog's paw sometimes just to make it more positive. There's nothing interesting happening here. I know what I'm doing the next time I see the cats snuggling on the bed together. They're going to hate that. Wait, I won? I think you won. Did you? Ow. Good job. High five, just because I want to slap MJ's hand. Because I don't know how to play this game. Oh. Well, in that case, I mean, we could do a little bit of a walkthrough. Sure. Let's just have a chat. Okay. Yeah, I've always thought that a one-player game would be beneficial. Okay, too late for that. I'm so sorry. So here's my thing, right? So I played what felt like a long time, at least as long as you did on our first game. If you're not in a mode, you're not doing anything. You crippled my score. Yes. Well, actually, if you're not in a multiball, you're not doing anything. The multiball, also initiating the 2x is pretty huge. Okay. On House of Horrors, if you're not in a mode, you're not doing anything. Watch your mouth. I said horror. I was playing. Um. I don't even know what to do with that. If you don't have the right pizza toppings, you're not doing it. Yeah, I don't, I don't know. Can I catch up on chat? Yes, please, catch us up on chat. A lot of people offer chaotic spanky pit-pits. To choose. Uh, uh, so. I was watching. Joel Error says coupling came out after friends, I thought. Why would you try to redo IG crowd? I couldn't be bothered by moving my B2S to take a photo of my score. You're now cameoing in virtual pinball channels. Hope you don't mind, says Higher Peanuts. You're telling me I'm the higher paying VP. Oh, I am? Yeah. Okay. Dr. Curly Tech says, that's blander. George would never pay me. Yeah, I definitely saw that. I would never got, I never got into Chandler Bing's pinball stream. George got that. Does Chandler Bing have a pinball stream? What? Does Matthew Perry have a pinball stream? No. Oh. Thanks. I started watching Sopranos when I never saw a single episode. So, PNK. Dr. Curlycheck says if you don't have the right pizza toppings, you're not doing anything. There you go. Caught up. How do you walk in the pizza toppings? How do you get the pizza toppings? I have no idea. Okay. I just try to play Jesus. Do you see an octopus or something special with that? I don't know. I never get enough time on this game. to understand what the hell I'm doing. Yeah, thing. Tonight are the longest games I've ever had on it, too. So I wasn't playing pinball aggressively when Walking Dead came out. But the way people describe Walking Dead when it first came out and the way this game feels, it feels very similar to me. I actually really like this game. Can I tell the story about our word of the night last night? What was our word of the night? How easy did you push up? Yeah. It was worth it, though. He said F-bomb. Like Fargo, Icehole. F-bomb. Yeah, I did. And then I quoted Fargo. Thank you, Tracy. It needs a code revamp. It's broken. It's not good. it needs a code revamp like Mando needs a code revamp. Yeah. How do you light your 2X? Uh, spare, spare twice and then use the 2X target. That part I do know. Can I tell the story of Zoe? Sure. In her favorite world last night? Can I say the word? Sure. So, so, so last night we were watching, um, She-Ra and what's, Catra? What's her name? Catra. Catra has a cat person, cat humanoid thing person. And she is fighting She-Ra. So what did you say? The whole series is like a love story to Catra and She-Ra. And She-Ra, yep. And Zoe gets a word stuck in her head, which is another word for cat. And it's willow, cat, peacat. Good night, Mr. Hardhawk. The hardhawk looks like, I've got no time for this. I can't guess what this word is to be anything. And so Zoe's just like, it's my pee. This is my pee. all night long. This is my teeth. Oh, no. And then, and then, like, Catra gets upset and her tail gets all puffy. And she's like, her tail's all pushed out. And George is like, stop it. Just stop it. I cannot say that. I need for a better word. Yeah, you said it. It's puffed. It's poofed. And she was like, no, it's pushed. and she was like it's a pussy cat she's a pussy cat it's okay to be honest this would be really funny if there were cameras around exactly see that's what i'm getting at just like because i made her a like a balloon bouquet of flowers and she drew cat eyes and my cat paused and a cat tailed on one of the, out of balloons. And she was like, it's a pussy. Look at you, Nicole. It's my pussy cat. And it's a pussy. And it's my pussy cat. Oh, my gosh. You are saying that word so much. What do you think I felt like last night? That is what happened when the child had the. No, I'll agree with your answer. And he is for a pussy cat. Is he going to do it? Because, I mean, exes of George's would just be like, he likes the village. And that is... What? What are you implying, sir? And every time... The village is a great movie. ...this lovely little eight-year-old child said this word, George is the great... I know a lot of people don't know that. I'm not alone. Yeah, I know. I know I'm in the minority. Just twitching. No, not in the room. Just... She said she hints. It's okay, you don't. And then finally he was like, can you find another word? And I just, it's poof. Mr. Hardlock. She said the cat. She's a kitty. Thanks for hanging out. So, yeah. That's when an eight-year-old gets a word stuck in her vocabulary. Is your daughter the type of kid who, if they knew it was a bad word, they would, like, say it all the time? Oh, yeah, yeah. What's the Britney Spears song? The Britney Spears song. The Britney Spears song, Work Bitch. We have had entire conversations around, she wanted to know why I like the song so much, and then she wanted to know why it was a swear word. And to this day, it's still one of her favorite songs, but she knows she's not allowed to say it, because the first thing I did was allow her to say the word. I'm like, it's fine. When you're singing the song, it's part of it. You can say the word. And then she immediately, not an hour later, called somebody a bitch. And I'm like, nope, done. Sorry. I was wrong. I can be a better parent. I apologize. You can't handle your freedom. You cannot say it. Yep. I will have you all know I am Auntie Jo. And I know a lot more things than Daddy does. And Jo, I don't know if you'll be able to appreciate this. Oh, I appreciate this a lot. My kids' favorite album is the Hamilton soundtrack. Oh, there we go. Not a swearing in that. Oh, yeah. She understands, like, and, you know, my kid, though, is maybe eight months older than yours. And so, like, she's just, like, at the point, though, where she understands, like, the difference between, like, okay, there are certain things that are representational in art that are acceptable that are not conversational, you know? And even if she can't articulate that, she hasn't made my life worse by, she hasn't hassled me about it, like what you're describing. like she knows these words are in this piece of art she likes and she knows they're words that she's not supposed to use and that's okay she's not a school like learning history southern mother democratic republican yeah no no she's she's not she's not doing that and like okay that's you know um and i think that that's that's part of kind of the socialization process for children like i I don't think you need to shield them from, like, oh, these words don't exist. Or these concepts don't exist. Yeah, I think it's a teaching moment. Tell them, like, when it means something in one instance, and when it means something in another instance. Until they're 13. Like, when and where to say it, and what have you. So, until they're 13, and they think it's just cool to say these words. And I really appreciate George's ex-wife. And, oh, sorry, I got to, yes. Insanity Falls. It could have been worse. It could have been WAP. And higher peanut, yes, there is a kids' WAP version of WAP. Winning at pinball? Is that what you mean? Oh, my gosh. If you're looking for one more song to complete my next album, and winning at pinball would be an amazing parody. Yep. I've already started to write a weird-out pinball parody song with WAP. Yeah. I'm over WAP. I want to rake leaves. That's what I want. Oh, my gosh. We've got to let you go, buddy. We will watch you. I appreciate Jess for, like, my kid was, like, 13 and going, like, through, like, thinking swearing was cool. And, like, was just, like, dropping swear words all the time. And Jess, like, looked at my kid and was like, hey, that's not cool. like I know you think you sound cool but you don't and if you continue to talk like that I can't have you be around this little that you love so like you should probably watch your mouth if you want to be considered to be taken seriously I'm really glad that none of your kids listen to metal rap metal rap with the language that's included yeah my kids listen to a lot of j-pop and k-pop what did you get the other week i did did you yeah how was that it was really good like way better than i thought it would be it was it was on my birthday and i thought about going supposedly those who curse are smarter um I'm going to side with that article that I read before that says that. Yeah, I've heard that as well. Yep, those who curse are more honest. Yeah, I'm pretty honest. I heard honest, not honest. Yeah, that tracks based on what I know about me. Yeah, I'm pretty honest. Can I do a... by the way. Oh no, no, yeah, totally, totally good. Tracy, I'm going to ask you this. Uh-oh. Invent a public figure scandal that will rock the world in the next year. I was really hoping you were going to say invent a public figure skater. Also, just as equally good. Blaze The glory, the next ninja ice skater. What just happened? That was your phone. That was my phone? Yeah. Why? Because it was sitting on the edge so carelessly. It's only got like two cracks. Okay, so for that question, I mean, it's hard to always bring this dude up, but if it came out that Weird Al was actually like an absolute piece of shit, then I think that would blow people's minds because like he's the only one who had like a behind the music where he wasn't you know like addicted to drugs and like you know having sex scandals and all these other things so if it comes out if he was an absolute piece of crap and was like I don't know had these bad things happen like maybe certain files in his computer or oh my gosh please no not those files sure no no no but i'm not that way where it would happen which is freaking me out because he's a he damn angel okay uh i think something like that would happen because you know politics shit like that happens all the time and you know we're not surprised i think if something happened to a guy like this people i don't even know how badly my life would be affected if weird turned out to be a bad guy. Stay. Joe, I have his face on my body. I have his face tattooed on my body. I am that great. People, this is for people, can you not see video right now? I let the stream on delay. I can see it like five seconds later. We'll see it later. Okay. Well, so, I'm currently wearing a Statue of City t-shirt. Yeah, I mentioned that earlier. That's awesome. Hilarious. Yeah. So, like, yeah, I've been on a podcast about Weird Al, actually. Yeah. So have I. Which one? Well, the pinball one, Backbox Pinball Podcast, they talked about the Weird Al pinball machine. That was a great episode. That was good. Do you listen to Beard Al? I'm sorry. Can you say that again? Beard Al? So it's B-E-E-R-D-O-W podcast. Okay. I really hope that's like a drag king thing, because that would be fantastic. Right? No, it's a podcast about beer and Weird Al. Oh. The hands down best drag Weird Al is Tracy. Hands down. True. Tracy, you didn't have the best. Tracy. one Halloween I got really lazy and I was like, you know, I can't just keep dressing up like Weird Al, but I just am too tired to think of a different costume. You know what I'll do? I'll wear a fake beard and I'll be Beard Al. And people just thought I was Jerry Garcia. And I was like, I'm holding back and I'm holding you. How can I be in the Grateful Dead? What are you talking about? But seriously, like, Tracy as Weird Al, you need to meet Tracy. Yes, MJ, you... It seems like Tracy and I would get on. Right, George? Yep, September. I don't have Dory Hill. I'm not going to Dory Hill at this very moment. Why not? I haven't talked to anybody. I haven't got any tickets. Are Dory Hill tickets available? Because I heard it was really hard to get into. It was very hard to get into. But I have machines and I'm local. It's not that much to try and move a machine over. I have a Walking Dead. I have a Jungle Princess. I have a Goldstocker. Oh, I think they're trying to work out bringing one more machine. And if you bring a machine, they make sure that you have a spot there. Who do I need to talk to? But are they like sold out already? Do I need to talk to Snow about this now? Yes. And Snow is definitely coordinating. I'm not a part of that discord. But you just... I'll get to the link. Okay. Yeah, yeah. I'll get you guys both to the link. I'll definitely bring a machine. I don't have a machine to bring, but, like, there is a non-pinball equivalent of Dory Hill held in Alabama every year called PlayonCon, which is, like, this gaming convention where they play Smash Bros. at a place with archery ranges, kayaks, and climbing walls and shit. And people will dress up like Link for the archery contest. It's like a whole thing. And so, like, I love backcountry nerd convention type stuff. But, yeah. Do they dress up as the famous kayaker that we're all familiar with? Is there a famous kayaker? Is there a famous kayaker? I don't think so. I mean, the thing about the canoeing that I really like is there's some guy who his retirement job is he lives on this lake, and he's got a bunch of crazy-sized pontoon boats, and he drives out in the middle of the lake when he sees the canoes come out from the camp that we're renting, and he sells ice cream. And he has, like, an ice cream truck, like, horn or whatever, that plays music from his pontoon boat. And he just, like, makes bags selling ice cream to people in the canoes. Dude, that's such a cool idea. It's the best life for a 65 year old person to like, just be like, all I want to do is hang out on my boat all day, but like, is there a way I can make other people's lives better? What if I had a bunch of ice cream? Oh hell yeah. Yeah, no, that's amazing. So Joe, for context, people play pinball in the river. No, no, no, this is not a pinball convention, this is like a general gaming convention. I understand, but at Dory Hill, people will set up a machine with an extension cord and extend it out to the middle of the stream. That seems like that's going to happen until it doesn't happen. And then someone will be playing pinball in the middle of the stream. Yeah, see, that Dory Hill stuff, like, because Colorado Pinball, you know, him and Snow were talking about it on stream a ton last year, And I was like, oh, my gosh, this event sounds like exactly the sort of thing I love. But, like, I just got to figure out how to get out there. Yeah, I mean, I know all about it. I've never been. Oh, really? Yeah. They tried to get me to sign up last year, but I was, like, really new to the area, and I was like, I don't know if I have friends here. You'll never know. I heard they have spillover housing at a nearby casino that's, like, a 10-mile walk or something. No, it's not. It's a 10-minute drive. and that's what I did last year. I'm on vacation. I'm not getting in the car. Yeah. No. Someone said, what? They play pinball on stream? No, in the stream. In the stream. In a current, like a river. Yeah, in a body of water. I got it, Queen Dark Lady. I enjoyed it. Yeah, it was good. Well done. I found Padgett, Which is exactly what I was thinking. Wait, so I've seen this image of some dude playing fish tails in the middle of water. Yes. Is that from Dory Hill? I don't think that was from Dory Hill. Oh, okay. I see the same picture. Just up near the plane, you guys see it? Yeah, gullible's written in the cloud. Yeah. George are you on ball one is this ball one oh okay don't tell me this never tell me the odds I am I'm the we didn't tell you the odds I'm in ultimate mode right now we told you how much you have left of the game he's definitely not on ball one and he definitely does not have an extra ball that's definitely not happening see what happens do you see what happens my bad I did not realize how far into the game you were I was about to say T left ball one but he's well fast team up. Oh, he got team up a lot. I am on the last mode right now. Shoot again! Cowabunga of all one. Wow, okay. I think Escher did that. Is there a Dory Hill website? Like, I'm out of the loop. I don't know where to sign up for this stuff. There is, but it's like so outdated. But it does have an email address. Because that's what I did, is I emailed and I was like, Snow's been trying to having to go to this since I first met her. Oh my god. And you know what? I want to try to do this and yeah. I just have to hit that. Yeah. I have two more balls to go. It's one more email for the hidden cameras to get me writing. Got it. Okay. And yes, I will get you guys an invite to the Discord so you can start the conversation. The only person that I can help out was Tracy. what would it what would it take to and you didn't have to do that like seriously I'm like so I'm all for slime internet connection what does that sound like I'm sorry and I missed what you said Tracy and yes it would be the internet no I was just basically saying a Yiddish term for like I don't know like I just don't know how to thank you is I lost the word I'm so happy you're coming. Even if I don't make it, Tracy, I'm glad you're going to come. Well, the thing is that my birthday is, like, right before that, and I have friends in Colorado that I want to visit. So I don't want to go just for, you know, the two or three days for the weekend of the tournament, but I want to try to spend some time, you know, hanging out and playing Ninja Turtles while you tell me how to freaking play it, George. and also, you know, hanging out with friends. I have friends in Colorado Springs and in Denver. We never really got to that part. How do you play Ninja Turtles? Yeah, we... I'm so sorry. It's fine. I'm going to be really honest. I got bored because I don't like the game. Didn't you hear him say, okay, watch this, and then he just played. You don't remember? Yeah, I mean, he got all that number one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I understand. I'm not going to... I understand that this is a me problem. I mean, it's a code problem, but it's also a me problem. There are eight modes in this game, and to start the modes, you have to hit the left ramp and right ramp. I knew that. Sorry, that's a qualify mode, and then you hit the shot underneath the van to start the mode. Standard mode versus multiball rules. If you can start the mode and then bring in the multiball, super easy. There's two main multiballs. One of them is the pizza one, which you immediately, your first ball can start locking under the van. That's the lock shot. The other one is turtle power over here. And you know you're ready to initiate turtle power when turtle power starts flashing. You can't re-get back or re-light your locks to get back into the pizza multiball until after your mini wizard mode. And I have no idea what initiates the second turtle power. I did both just a minute ago. I think I went through two sets of both the van and Turtle Power with different modes. And the modes, for the most part, are pretty straightforward. Some of them are unique. The one when you play Slash requires that you go to an underworld or like an upside down. Yeah, you've got to hit both stand-ups on either side of the ramp and then hit the ramp itself to go to Dimension X. Oh, yeah, yeah. It's a really cool mode. It's not an underworld. I'm sorry. You're right. No, no, no. Thank you for knowing. I'm a big Turtles fanboy. I hate this game, though. I'm not like Joel. I like this game. I don't. This is... The problem is that the modes should have been more unique with each one of them. There's only a couple memorable. The mini wizard mode you get to when you complete four modes, and then you hit the left ramp to initiate it. And once you complete all eight modes, you get to Final Battle, which is a three-phased wizard mode, which is super fun to play. and then there's Cowabunga which requires you not only get to final battle but then also do these like five other things that we can show you in the instant info if you just keep holding does this game come with like a expedited wizard mode like a lot of games do where you can do some super code and you can get into it yeah you can jump right into final battle triple mondo jackpot final battle five hurry ups The April Hurry-Ups. Weapon Hurry-Up. And the 1-2-3-4 combo. Along with the Jackpoto Grande. So we've collected a Jackpoto... For mine on mine, I've collected Jackpoto Grande. Is that the Italian or the Spanish? I honestly don't know. Italian. No, no, no, it's Italian. It is Italian, isn't it? Yeah. But they're in California, I feel. Are they? No, they're in New York. They're in New York. Yes. I don't know why. I thought they were in California. No, no, no. You're not wrong. You're not wrong. They have a Californian accent. Yeah. I love you saying it. They are Brooklyn residents with Californian accents. They're also Teenage and also Mutants and also Ninjas and also Turtles. Yes, I understand. However, they are named after the Renaissance painters, so they are Italian turtles. uh-huh that's it they are they're all over the place i mean i'm named evidently after an english king but i'm not english sure you're not english actually i technically am english that is really disappointing that you had to follow that up because i call it the out on that you look anglo as hell so he failed me earlier he will not fail me six different things Okay. Have you done the ancestry thing? No, I just, I've talked to all my, like, I, all of my family had pink kids at a very young age, except for my generation. You've talked to all your ancestors, you've done a Ouija board, and they've spoken to you? Yeah. No, he's not one of those temples, like, from Mulan, where all the ghosts come out of statues, obviously. Exactly, yeah, I have spoken to Eddie Murphy. Yeah, I'm not a lizard, I don't do that kind of thing. You're ancestor Eddie Murphy. I'm a drag. You've got a quote of the night. Yeah. I'm a quote of Eddie Murphy. Oh, good for you, George. By the way, weed-smoking lulz, welcome to the stream. Hi, what up? Oh, wow. I got 41 million on my first ball. Yeah, everyone else knows. That's all. Yeah, no, that was an exceptional first ball. We were trying to avoid calling attention to it because you were clearly doing well. Right up until Paul called attention to it. No, it was me. It was MJ. It was MJ. It was MJ. It was 100% me. I think, when it was earlier, you have a big head. The Village is a fantastic movie. I like The Village. The cinematography of The Village, the acting and the music, the music by itself, I feel like is enough to make it like just one of the top tier films. Okay, I don't know if I'd go that far, but I do like The Village quite a bit. George, what's that line from The Village? I don't know. The one about you avoid things that... Oh, that one. Yeah, it's the things that we avoid are the things that we want is basically the sentiment that came from that film. By the way, I now... I just have to hit the left ramp to get into Final Battle. So, George, the village came out a while ago and I missed it in theaters. Is it one of those things that holds up or is it a hold up because you saw it when it came out? No, it holds up. No, Joel. Good job. Good job on this. Great job. Okay, you know that it is written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan. And this is three movies into his surprise ending. So there's a bit of M. Night Shyamalan kind of playing with the meta of his movies. In this movie. Which is a little funky. and it's actually, to me, what makes it so amazing. I mean, I will hand it to him. He made one of the three weird people talking to you in the Korn films that really make up the genre with signs. So, you know, he's contributing to that canon at least. The weird people talking to you in Korn. Yeah, you know, you have Field of Dreams, you got Signs, and you got, oh, what's that one with the black hole? Interstellar. Interstellar, yeah, there's three like, one day, in the same way that Sherlock Holmes was once like one character and now it's a genre called mystery, you know you've got three films of people talking to each other in the corn, and it's going to be Field of Dreams, and now it's going to be like a lot of stuff eventually. What about Children of the Corn? I almost was going to ask what about Children of the Corn? Well, okay, because my point is that the genre is bigger than maybe we're ready for it to be But is Children of the Corn a great film? I don't know. Specifically. I missed it in theaters. Wait, wait, wait, wait. But is Village a great film? Yes. The Village is a great film. No, it isn't. I think it's a good film. It's a great film. It is not that. Because M. Night Shyamalan's great joke misses the mark. It's a great film. It's definitely in M. Night Shyamalan's top eight. Oh my God, that was the most Dice-ian response. I feel like I have heard tonight not from Dice. Yeah, because that's definitely Surreal's voice. Yeah. Hi, Surreal. Welcome back. How was feeding the cats? It was fine. I've been here for like an hour, George, but good to see you again. George was busy getting to the wizard mode. I am ready to start the wizard mode. I was so focused on playing. I'm sorry. It's surreal. Yeah. Also, the village had nothing to do with corn. I'm from Iowa. And I know corn. Yeah, it was a forest. But that's the thing. You can't give it away because Joe hasn't seen it. Let's talk about Iowa real quick. So my sister is going to college in Nebraska right now. And we're not from Nebraska. We're not Nebraska people. Wait, is she a corn husker? Awesome. That's awesome. Nebraska has a lot of corn. Also, Nebraska is not Iowa. One of the things she got from Nebraska and was telling me, she was like, they really don't like Iowa there. Yeah. Like, it's one of those rivalries. Like, how the people who lived out in the county thought our city school was, like, their rivals, but, like, we never cared. It's like that. Like, the people in Nebraska really don't like Iowa. Yep. But I really suspect no one in Iowa has ever thought about Nebraska. No, no, no. That's, no. There's a rivalry in Iowa between Iowa and Nebraska. There's also a rivalry in Iowa between Iowa and... Illinois? Minnesota. Oh. I thought it was going to be New Hampshire. I thought you know the political thing No Everybody around Iowa really doesn like Iowa I don like being from Iowa Are you from Iowa I'm from Iowa. Does it make sense that Iowa and Nebraska are made up some rivalry just to make their states interesting? Yeah. No, Iowa was, yeah. I don't like being from Iowa. Iowa was named after an indigenous tribe. uh, named Ewa. It was Ewa. So they already screwed that up. They're like, we're not going to really care about the source material here. Right. Yep, exactly. I mean, to think about it, that sounds pretty American. Oh, it's, uh, it's very caucus. Let's, uh, let's caucus. What? What? Oh, Iowa's got the, that's their claim to fame is Iowa's got the, Democratic Caucus. Okay, got it. Sorry, you just... I'm pretty sure George thought you said caucus. Just saying. That's probably what he thought. I thought you were going to go with Caucasian. You were shortening that in a weird way. No, no, no. It's a political thing. The thing is, I've literally been to Iowa to campaign for a political candidate in advance of that caucus, but I didn't think that was what you were saying. No, we've got the corn vote. We, uh, there's people at the Iowa State Fair who put kernels of corn in a jar with a politician's face on it. And that decides things. Oh, my God. Gross, right? Like, I really... There's no groundhogs available, apparently. No, no, no. Like, this is one of those things, like, you know, you watch a show like Deadwood where they're just like, we're going to go start a city based on greed, and we're going to just, like, have a goldmine encounter or whatever. And I'm just like, man, you could just create a city based on something. Hey, what if it was based on something stupid? Let's go. Let's go. Do it. We did it. Thanks. On stream. Where do you go? Wow. Thank you. Is that against DOS? No, it was the lumberjack handshake. It's a thing. Is that a game? Do you know that? Mm-hmm. Uh-huh. What was that? So just like that, first time you said cock test. Yeah, I did. I just didn't know what it was that was said. There was no expectation. Cock test isn't, um... That sounded like a regular thing to come up with. Wait, wait. I was thinking how cool Iowa was because they had all the astronauts, but then I realized that was Ohio. That is Ohio. Yeah. Are a lot of astronauts from Ohio? Like, a staggeringly high percentage of them are from Ohio. Okay, I mean, what if you're from Ohio, but there's so many people, like, oh, my God, I just want to get out of this world, let alone the state. Like, let me get off this planet. That's literally it, Tracy. I'm from Ohio. I need to get as far away as possible. Take me to the moon. Let me sing among the stars. Is that what Interstellar is about? It's about getting away from Ohio? Ian realized this, but Elton John's actually from Ohio, and he wrote Rocketman. Elton John is from Ohio? Actually, it's... Oh, I see what you did. What Interstellar is really more about is Dazed and Confused. I get older, they stay the same. Oh, my God. Oh, my God, Connor. Wait, but we stay the same age, though? Yeah, yeah, no, he doesn't have one of those brawlers or something. Yeah, yeah. Wait for somebody. He flipped it. He, he, he roped you with the okey-doke on that one. Alright, I gotta hit that left stand-up target. Got it. Did you beat? So I'm on to phase two. I had been to Ohio when I was younger. I thought it was like pretty and stuff. pretty and stuff I have 12 so it sounds like you do everything yes I have not been to large parts of this country said every Californian oh my god I'm from California there was no need to go anywhere else we had everything right there wait how do you wind up in Colorado my wife's going to school I'm here like every other Californian by the way Colorado is heavily populated by former Californians yeah it really is the people who are from Colorado do not like that is what I've learned I mean that happens like I'm in Austin so like I don't know if you've been here but like that's the same sentiment for like everyone too like I have been in Austin that's happening in Dallas as well like everywhere that's not California is now more full of Californians yeah nobody likes Californians they hate us because they hate us that's right technically that's a law of the universe the entropy of California I mean in theory they could stay there I don't think that's the right but as soon as you have one person leave then there are more Californians I'm pretty sure So Joe Error just straight up said that basically he was just jealous, I believe, is what he's saying. Right, Joe? Joe's not jealous. Joe's also from California. He's saying that everyone else is jealous of us. Yeah, no, no. And they'd also be saying that in Iowa. No, you can't do that to me in the final battle. That's BS. That is bad programming. because the code's broken, George. That is broken, Dwight. Right here. Right here. I've got that feature turned on in the code because it happens. Ooh. So we may actually see a rage flip at this table. My second delay here is killing me because I know it's coming and then I see it. I'm sorry, George. That's rough. It's kind of fun looking forward to Mad George. What happened? Okay, so what happens is when you make this shot, which you had to make, sometimes it drops it out and it bounces out. And there's a feature, because it happens on so many pinball machines, they literally added it to the code where when it drops it out, it will actually give you a ball saver. And it's not in there in the wizard mode. Yeah, and so that's like the scoop in TNA. Like when it shoots, it's right down the drain. but you're just ending a multiball it's like womp womp you don't get the ball saved during multiball too bad like ah sucks but I wasn't and that exists in here for the multiball but it shouldn't be there for the wizard mode nice Jay-Z like as a programmer like just watching, like, some of these weird bugs and stuff from these pinball machines. I'm like, oh my god, if this was open source, I could just, like, let me look at the code. Right. Let me just send a patch in. Like, uh... Hey, Nitro-G, this is my TMNT Premium. And we will be playing it tomorrow with Escher, along with some... What's the name of this game? SoundVoltex. I really want to play Sound Voltex Sound Voltex is so fun and I am up to level 7 now I was so into like Rock Band and Guitar Hero that like it like I told you the other night when you were playing it on stream if I had that at home it's all I would do it would be a real problem because Guitar Hero and Rock Band was a real I had to get rid of it for like a quality of life thing I've literally been on the local news in Alabama for winning a rock band competition. What? Not like Battle of the Bands or whatever. Okay, yeah, no, no, no. The fun version, not the real version. Yeah, the video game one for Xbox. Yeah, no, so we were we performed at PlayOnCon, which is once again that kind of like nerd camp convention. We all wore Hawaiian shirts. We were James Tiberius Buffett and his enterprising young men. and we played a parody of Margaritaville. We wrote our own lyrics about the convention and we sang it while playing rock band and we outscored the other teams at the actual instrumentation while also just having the best lyrics to any song and best costumes and things like that. So was everyone supposed to write a parody song? No, but they're not stopping you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I feel that that's true of most conventions, really. Yeah, is anyone really stopping you from writing a parody song in any convention? I mean, you're wearing a white shirt and writing parody songs. Am I supposed to hate this? I mean, come on. Yeah. I did not realize that was going on. I'm right here. I'll be wanting my own words. I want red leaves, Sarah. I've got this so brittle and dry. I want red leaves. you only need 62 million. I want to rake leaves. I have known Paul less than a year, and he has been trying to make I want to rake leaves happen the entire time. I know. And he had... God knows. God knows I want to rake leaves. I love Queen, and I've listened to them so many times, but I feel like I've heard their first... I've fallen in mud. I love Queen. I love Queen songs. I fall in the mud for the first time And this time I know it's for real I really think it's interesting to me Why don't you email Weird Al And see if he'll pay you for it Yeah, for Reg Lee I don't know, Tracy Wait, does every character start to go to Weird Al starts playing his own songs You know You just gotta go out there make your own parody albums and, like, you know, see what audience you can get. Weird Al famously hates when people recommend song parodies. That's the thing I was just about to say. You know how many people actually have chosen the song ideas? It's so sad. Well, that was your suggestion, not, uh... I'll bet you... That's the thing. If he's going to say no, then maybe you should... You know, I support you, Paul, and a lot of your endeavors... It sounds like you don't. It really sounds like you don't. Here's the thing, though, Paul, is that Tom Lehrer never got rich making music, right? Okay, well, but Tom Lehrer also didn't do parody songs, though. I mean, he did style parodies, I guess. He wrote pastiches. Yes. He wrote comedic songs. I'm sorry. Hold on, wait. Joe, Joe, Joe. He was drafted by the Army to work on the atom bomb and then being an MIT math professor. Right. And he just happened to make a lot of funny albums and send them to Dr. Demento in the meantime. Like, you can go out and live your best life and not tell Weird Al what to do, and not necessarily make a profit on any of your music. Excellent point. I'm saying this as somebody who has spent a lot of money paying instrumentalists to make a lot of music I wrote, and I am not making that, I'm not getting that money back. Like, that is, it's like, wow, I spent $250 to $500 per song on this, and I'm making $250 to $500 per album. But you know what? I'm making money other ways. I have another job. It's fine. I'm going to live my best life. Hey, Spyro the Husky, have a great night. And Nitrog asking, what is SoundVoltex? It is a rhythm-based game that uses a very specific controller from Japan that's not meant to be played on something like this controller on our computers. It's only meant to be played in the arcade. But it has been super hacked to allow it. And I have to go in and pay a certain fee once every 30 days in order to play it on my computer through a website that is not in English at all. I have to try and convert it on the fly from the scoreboard. I know. I mean, the eyes are like, there's like four sound vortexes, and I don't know what the hell I'm doing in there. I'm just like, I think this is what they're asking. I think if I say no to this, they won't show me the tutorial. I don't know what the hell I'm reading, but I don't know. It's super fun. It sounds like a very toxic relationship, Tracy. I mean, you know, I have this set up. There's no reason that we couldn't play it right now on stream. I want to play it. I mean, do you guys want to see what it looks like? Oh, also. I'm a little absurd. Really quick. So. No! No! No! No! No! No! So. Roll, buddy. Yeah, here's the deal. I was looking for what you were going to say from my stream to catch everyone. I was like, why is everybody yelling? Joel. I just put up 61 million and got to the wizard mode. this evening. $62 million. $62 million, 936,080. Almost on ball one. That's what you have to fight on Thursday. Joel, I hope you're bringing not just your A game, but whatever comes before A. If we could go into the negative alphabet, that's what you're going to have to bring. Your end game? Your end game. Bring your end game. I look at you, but George does not mean you get to take out your aggression on your friends, okay? Okay, okay. You know what? A for effort. Thank you. Thank you all. No, no, no. As a part of season two, we're focusing on interviews. So I interviewed Joel and I asked him all about today or this evening, just before the stream. I interviewed Joel and I asked him all about like what he does for a living and what got him into streaming. And then I'm like, okay, Joel, I need you to take 60 seconds and just talk complete shit about me and what's coming up. So I thought this was the perfect way to return the favor. It might be, it might surprise you, but he can do that. Talk shit? Yep. Yeah, I was there when he did it. He did a really good job. Yep. Yeah, so I'm excited to edit and put that together and release that in preparation for Thursday. Dan's kind of pointing out that we have to do push-ups now. Joel, I have more Turtles memorabilia. I'm a bigger fanboy than you are on TMNT. Also, what do you call TMNT? I call it Turtles, because that is the 84 name for Turtles, is Turtles. I call it Turtles. I like Turtles. That's better. That's better. That's even better. It is not TMNT. It is Turtles. But this game's not as good as you say it is. Wait. Sound Voltex? Oh, no. TMNT. Yeah. No, no. Yeah. I'm talking to Joel. Not you. Oh, I'm so sorry. You've got to be here. This game is anything I want it to be. And I like turtles more than you, Joel. Oh my God, that's the real. Those are the status to emos. How dare you? I know. Are we bringing this conversation back? Oh no, are we doing the burning story emos again? We support everyone. Last time we talked about this on stream, I don't know if we could do this again. For real, I'm not going to say you're driving me to drink, but my glass was empty anyway, and I need an excuse to step away, so I'm just going to take it right now. Thanks, for real. Bye. See you. Joe, thank you so much for hanging out tonight, man. That was appreciated. Oh, he's coming back for a drink. Oh, I'm sorry. I told you. He bums everybody out. Alright, let me just do this then. There you go. Over and over again. Make it like animated somehow so it's just... Wait, well that was the thing. George was asking if Artex slowly dispends into the bog and the swamp. If I have these shoes, do I have to D.E.R. the uh... I'm gonna stand up straight. next turn. Do I have to? You're not even trying it anymore because now we're vertical. But on the chair. But while you guys are playing soundvoltaics, do I have to DDR this stuff at the same time? Sure. Alright, have you played any soundvoltaics before? No. Okay. I'm going to show one game of Sound Voltax. There's no arrows, so you can't DDR it. This is really weird. I have the same outfit as this character. Tracy, where are we going? On currently? Yes, right now. Wow. Well, one of you is going to have to change. All right, so we're going to choose this game. And there is a controller in front of me which is mimicked in code and normally I have a camera over there Which we can play there and you can see it, but we're not going to do it. So instead I'm just gonna focus and now this is level six On these ones he's just pushing the button when you have your eyes with the knob and when you have the orange bars you have to push the button and press those long rectangular buttons underneath and sometimes all those things happen at the same time. Cool. Navi. Navi the half-dog? Yes. He's got a sock at the end. No offense, this is like pretty tame. It's definitely not, it's not like a normal, it's not like a normal, it's not like a normal Each other's sock at the end of it. No offense, this is like pre-tame. It's definitely not the easiest level, but it gets really stupid. It gets really intense. What's the long with the knob? Like a D.D.R. Oh yeah. What's that long white one? You just have to hold it. It's the knob, dude. No, the knob is the pink and the blue. No, the long white one is you have to hold it. have to hold it when it's orange you hold the white and the rectangular button okay when it's white you just hold the white the white button yeah when it's a long way you just hold the white but he's knobbing yes he is not the the the red and the blue or the piece in the blue is the knob you have to like follow the track using the knob I thought I'd take the initiative to explain this game because it's really intense and if not, then you're doing things. No, it's super intense! Thank you so much for doing that for me. I mean, you're definitely passing this level, because that's hard. You've got to be a pro. I mean, but that is level six. That is nothing. When Escher comes on tomorrow night, you're going to see him play at level 14 and level 15. My headset's dying. And it's redonk. I'm sorry that your headset is dying. It is not final battle. But you have not played, so I'm going to set you at level two. Level two seems to be about a good starting spot. And I don't mean that in any kind of a negative way. And I'm sorry, which danger? I mean, some of the levels are there, by the way. Oh, here. Alright, let's just go. Looks like level 19 and then it goes back to Japanese, not converted. And I don't know what happens there. But it goes up to level 1. There's not even numbers for this level. Yeah, and mind you, hold on, we're going to start at level 2. Let's pick a good song really quick. Can you even hear the music? No, it's going to totally screw me up. Oh, okay. Sorry, that's not loud as it gets. I can't hear the music at all through Discord. Yeah, you're doing a great job, Jordan. So when I walk away to go to the fridge, I switch over to my phone, which is playing the stream, and I'm like, oh, okay. I get what's going on now. Yeah, it's unfortunate. The way... You know what? I can fix this. Hold on. I can fix it. Give me two seconds. But, like, one of the things I learned that was really disturbing is, like, if Cyril and I both show up at TPF in that same outfit, that's going to be a whole thing. And you'll have to do, like, a dance-off or something to see who can be... Couldn't we just go as twinsies for the day? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what? If Jordan and Becca can do, like, joint costumes or group costumes or whatever... Oh, you know what? have you seen Becca's Scott D'Anisi costume? Oh my god, that was terrifying to see. No. Oh my god. Did she look like Scott D'Anisi? Yeah, yeah, yeah. She had this Adidas jacket and stuff. Yeah, it was very messed up. I was watching that and I was like, I don't like wearing merchandise that has like a brand prominently displayed, but I will buy an Adidas jacket. So that I... It's always funny you don't even realize like how like caricature he is, I suppose. Unless you see Rebecca dresses and it's like, oh, of course, that's all he is, is this type of look. He's got the glasses. He's got the jacket. He's got, like, this around his neck, the hat. Let's be fair, though. Yeah. We probably all have a character juror of ourselves. Oh, look, there's a lot of fan art of me. I know what people would dress like if they want to dress like me because I've met them at conventions. That's a thing. That's a legitimate thing. But that's why I want to do a shot and not as me. But for me it's just like, oh, like, look, I have big hair, look, I'm you. Like, oh, okay. Yeah, okay. You got big curly hair, I guess. FYI, this is going to be a little bit louder for y'all. That's funny, surreal actually sounds like that too, so. I do. That makes sense. I do. This is my radio voice, which recently has come up as a thing, somehow. It's like, you know, when he puts on that outfit, his true powers show, and... That's how he... I get to be vulnerable and beautiful. By the way, you check this out. So this is what happens tomorrow. We go into this mode. Where we play pinball at the same time we play Sound Voltex. But I'm gonna switch back to just Sound Voltex for this part. So now we're gonna go... You are bringing Sound Voltex to Dory Hill too, though, right? Oh yeah, absolutely. Are you kidding me? Oh, really? Alright. Oh no, we don't want level one. We actually want level two. Level one's interesting. Did Solio play the Measle Mod boost Godzilla at TPF where they hooked up a Guitar Hero card and a DDR pad? No, I did not get a chance to play that. I heard about it, though. How did that work? Did it affect the flipper? Were the flippers different buttons? No, so like, okay, so it was freaking amazing. There was no delay because they basically hooked it up like right into the wires that hook up into the flippers. And so you have to strum for the Guitar Hero. You have to strum in order for it to flip. And the buttons on the neck decide if it's an upper flipper or the left flipper or the right flipper. Also, like, you know, there's a start button and the action button is like another thing. So, and they hooked it up so like you have like an upper left and an upper right. So, you know, depending on if your game even has that, because they hooked it up to other games in the stream. And that was pretty cool. The DDR was super tough. I know, I know when we played it, I witnessed him trying to do that, but he was really intent on like getting that and he freaking killed it. He's, like, kind of holding on to the machine at times, because, like, I would imagine it's super hard. I only did, like, one time today for the DDR pad. So, you know, the left flipper is the left arrow. The right flipper is the right arrow. The up, I think, is to, like, one, I think. I can't remember for the DDR, but, yeah. It was really cool. And they helped it out directly instantaneously, so there's, like, no delay, you know. I don't know. It feels pretty mobile. It definitely looks super cool. Have you ever played Juby? I have not. Okay. Joe, have you played Juby before? Have you heard of that game? No, I have not heard of it. It's another Asian game where there is 16 squares and images, well not like images, but like one image pops up and tells you when to hit it, basically. And so you're basically just hitting all these different squares whenever they tell you to on the beat of the song. So it's like this, but there's only the four by four squares. And sometimes you have to hold it, but there's nothing really crazy about it. It's just hitting the buttons, but it's still pretty fun. Yeah, I was going to say, 4x4, that's a lot of buttons to have to hit. Like, I mean, yeah, I mean, it's one of those things, like, when I played music games with my friends, like, they were super serious about it. Like, like I said, we went to competitions in other states, like, we're writing our own lyrics. But, like, I was definitely the weakest link in terms of, like, music game competency. I was good at the helping write lyrics part, you know, and I would practice my bit of the music and I'd do my best. but like, yeah, it's, uh, yeah. 4x4 grid, that's on my butt as well. Yeah, like, you've got to turn the dial and hold, like, three buttons down. So the orange one, you have to hold the two white buttons and the rectangular button. See, this is the sort of game that, like, it would be cool to play so I could get good at something I'm so intrinsically not attuned toward. Like, this is not in my lane. It's pretty dang fun. It is super fun. This also looks really good on a resume. I mean, we could never apply for another job again. I'm working towards that, Joe. You know, like, right now I'm in, like, the terrifying phase where it's like the income and the expenses are like zeroing out. But like, you know, most businesses go under in like the first 12 months and I'm still like zeroing out every month. So it's like I'm good, you know. You're ahead of the game. That's great. Yeah, I mean, I'm making it. One day at a time. Check me out. Level six. Is this the seventh? That seems like a huge jump. And I know! Oh my god, I'm ruining it! Is this Jesus? What is happening? I don't know. That was really bad. I completed it? No. What's really terrible is watching this on stream and then looking at chat and seeing it swim. Because even looking at the screen coming at you. Yes, it totally messes with your eyes. I used to play a game called Frequency. I don't remember if it was on the PS1 or something, but it was like techno music, and it's basically Guitar Hero, but, you know, no guitar. And it's on a track like that, and once it's over, it's like your eyes are still looking at a track or something and it's just the way you swim is too messy for your eyes but you know it's enjoyable, fun, entertainment so just wait for tomorrow you know, have you ever seen those videos where somebody is playing Guitar Hero at a level that no average human could ever achieve that's how Escher plays every game of this. He plays it at a level that is so fast my eyes can't keep up and he hits everything perfectly. It's ridiculous. He's got such ease too. Just like when you play a pinball. He talks to me while he's doing it. I'm acting like I'm not even breaking a sweat at all. Yeah! Oh my god! It's mind-blowing. He's talking with chat. Do they have a no-fail mode on this? Yes, they do. Can you show us a level 19? I think so, yeah. I can show... I mean, with the understanding that... Not any far at all. Yeah. Notice, by the way, I'm also at speed 2. When Escher plays, he upgrades his level to speed 5. So we can play these games much, much faster. But I gotta tell you, getting, like, okay, we don't look good on resume, but getting an S-chain on this type of game is such a good feeling. Oh, it's so good, man. When you hit things and you nail it, it feels awesome. Little early. Little early. Slow it down. Slow it down. There you go. Oh, I missed it. Yeah, with the orange buttons you have to push the white buttons and the orange or similar buttons on the PC. No, you don't have to hit the white buttons. You just have to hit the orange buttons. Wait, really? Wait, yeah. I thought I had to hit the... Are you sure? No, no. So the orange is just that button and that button. Oh. That's it. You don't have to hit any of the white buttons. Oh. Oh, I thought I had to. No. I thought it was like working the white keys. That's what I thought I was doing at the arcade. then again, I don't speak Japanese, and I know what the fuck they're telling me at this point. I feel like it's like Guitar Hero, because in Guitar Hero, if you, like, you can hold one button above where the note is, so, like, it, like, descending down the neck of the guitar, so, like, it's green, red, blue, orange, and yellow, or whatever. So, like, if there's a red note, you can keep the green button held down, and hit your red note, and it won't affected at all. Yes. Oh my god, do you see what this is right here? Right, yeah. This is... I can't even play this. This is surprisingly well. Yeah, you weren't getting to that. I can't see where George gave up now. Oh, it's on. Okay, so there you would have to hold the white and the orange. See, I've never seen that before, so I just assumed that right there you have to do both, because the white's over the orange. I've never seen that before. You know what? This is what, and this is at a slower speed than Escher. I'm at like a fifth of the speed that Escher will play. I can't wait to show you guys what Escher can do to borrow this. So I know that a lot of people, and I think maybe that's what's happening to me, they'll speed it up because they have the tendency to hit early. And so that makes up for their... It's honestly sometimes like a handicap, I guess, where if you increase the speed, if you hit early, it's not as big of a deal. Yeah, you've got to find where your natural response rate is. Oh, shoot, the... The track for the knob is thinner, too. Yeah, I don't... I don't know if this is... I gotta test this. Yeah, yeah, okay. There's a way to exit out of this. I feel like it's... There we go. I can throw all the leaves. Yeah, I think if you try yet, because we have abandoned one... Oh, my God! Why? Why? No, no, no. No, no, no, no. It restarted it. What? Just restart. No, I don't. Yeah, this is it. Do you need... That's fine. That's fine. You know what we're going to do? You're here forever. We're just going to go here. Okay, we did it. I like that it's a huge mistake and then you continue to try it. No, no, no. I wasn't using a metaphor. What can't we learn from this? Don't go beyond your level. I don't know if you guys saw the jump. Yes, stay in your lane. Level six to seven was too much for me to keep up. Like, technically I completed the track, but I feel like that was a gimme. Like, the game felt sorry for me, and it's like, it's fine. You can technically complete it, but we're going to give you the lowest rating possible. I like how Paul says get a big gasp outside. You earned that near win. Near win. Okay. Well, you guys, thank you so much for hanging out. It is after 1. This is the longest I have ever kept anyone on a Monday night. You guys are amazing. Who do we have with us tonight? Oh, shit, it's Monday. I am so sorry. It's surreal. We have surreal. It's not tomorrow. Damn. Today, we have Surreal7, who streams all kinds of games, including Forza and what's the Blizzard game that you stream all the time, Surreal? Oh, Overwatch and Fortnite recently. Oh, wow, Fortnite. Okay, cool. So make sure to check out Surreal7. you have Tracy from Outer Spacey also streams a bunch of different games occasionally pinball Tracy what was the last thing you streamed? The Witness The Witness I'm not familiar with that oh I really want to play that a frustrating puzzle game where I'm like what are the birds saying to me like one freaking level where it's showing you a maze that you have to draw and it's like oh these birds are chirping what do their chirps look like on a map like what would you think the sound would look like and it's like what the fuck are you asking to do here it's kind of frustrating and amazing okay it doesn't tell you anything you just basically like appear in the game and you just like uh i guess i'll trace this thing and then it opens a door and you just keep figuring stuff out but it's like really it's like mr ribbon but the graphics are way cooler wow way to bring me back to the mid-90s with Myst and Riven. No, seriously, it brought me back to when I started playing. I was like, this totally feels like that type of game where you're just wandering around and don't know what the hell you're doing. See, Tracy, I think you're in this weird uncanny valley where you're smarter than me, and so you know the birds mean something. Me, I had no idea the birds meant anything. I'm just wandering around going like, what a cool island! I like that there's wires and birds and trees and I'm just, like, wandering around this island and I'm like, and somebody would be, like, later, like, Joe, what did you think of this puzzle? I'm like, oh, that was a puzzle. Oh, me? Like, it's a beautiful game, George. It's a beautiful game. Yeah, you have to, like, line up tree branches to, like, make an image that shows you where to go on this map or, like, I don't know, it's pretty crazy looking. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it. I probably didn't think about this one dude. Yeah, I enjoyed it a lot, too, but I wasn't very good at it. But it's so funny. I played it last night, and Game Time Television and Ruckus were, like, oh, my God. It was so bad. Like, both Leslie and Rod were in my chat being like, I figured out this puzzle. Like, what are you? I'm like, I don't know. Tell me what are the birds saying. I have no idea. I'm sorry, my brain. Because, like, I have trouble sometimes. Joe, maybe you can, like, understand this, but, like, my ADHD brain can sometimes look at things way too differently where I don't see exactly what the hell's in front of me. I'm, like, looking at maybe, like, the negative space wrong or something. So, like, my brain sometimes cannot compute. But nevertheless, the game's really fun and frustrating. Okay. Kind of like Vault-X, I guess. Yeah. Yeah. So make sure to check out Tracy from Outer Spacey. Also, we have Joe Hills on. Joe Hills who I feel like needs no introduction streams Minecraft and craft crafting in the mornings what did we come up I feel like we you have an actual name for that Joe like your morning streams where you get on with zombie Cleo right yeah I mean what we just call it like crafting with Cleo or she calls it something like crafting with that other guy but it is fun like I mean like honestly a lot of what I do I'm not really hung up on nomenclature or taxonomies like I just go do stuff like I bought this make a rollercoaster kit and the thing says all over it like this is made of incredibly sharp metal don't give this to a child under the age of 14 I'm like I guess I'll do this on stream so that's my Wednesday morning craft stream is I'm going to make a rollercoaster model out of a thing that probably wants me dead. So I guess I'll bring a lot of duct tape to wrap my fingers in so it doesn't slice me up. I don't know. You know? You'll be a fun stream to do this in boxing gloves. That might be a fun stream to watch. Oh, man. Boxing gloves. I have those somewhere. Like, I don't know. The crafts in boxing gloves sounds terrible as well, but entertaining. Yeah. No, and I probably, like, I probably have some, like, children's puppets from, like, when my kid was three, where it's like, I could get, like, a frog puppet and, like, hold it in one hand and have it bending the metal. You know? I've got, um, fake astronaut gloves that, uh, were oven mitts I could use. I don't know. Like, my goal is to not bleed out on my next craft stream and make a roller coaster, maybe. I don't know. We'll see how it goes. Now that's a tease. That's high, high, high goals. Um, so make sure to check out twitch.tv slash joehills or youtube.com slash joehills uh hermitcraft and uh and then crafting with zombie cleo and that other guy uh it's awesome i highly recommend it and then uh we have bumper nugget who is i think out smoking uh a death cigarette i don't know what you call a cough and nail, cigarette, AK, whatever. But check out Bumper Nugget, who streams and has almost always, I feel like, this crazy foot-level camera view. If you're unfamiliar with Bumper Nugget, people do a lot of weird things when they're playing pinball with their feet. And it was really cool, I feel like, to see what Bumper Nugget has done trying to focus on the feet, or what people do with their feet while they're playing pinball. And last but certainly not least, MJ. Yep. And that is your podcast. Oh, Let's Jaws for a Minute. Right. Yeah, so there's that. There's also another podcast called Real Perspective, R-E-E-L Perspective. That's just, it's about current release movies and TV shows. It's a pretty standard three guys talking about pop culture type of podcast. Wait, it's on a fish? Get out of here. on a brief hiatus while my co-host heals from a broken ankle. We'll be back mid-July to talk about each one of the Jaws sequels, not minute by minute, but one episode for each Jaws film, and then the filmography of Steven Spielberg from that point forward. Twitter is the best place to find that, at Jaws for a minute, for the show, and then at MJSmith891 on Twitter for all that. Okay. And also, MJ lost his sound so he can't hear us anymore his headphone side so Outer Spacey Tracy, sorry, or Tracy from Outer Spacey man, that still messes me up, that's how long I feel like I've known you Tracy is the adjustment and then there was something about Snapper you had an intro what was it? Red Snapper? Flipper Snapper that's what it was, for a little while as well But yeah, sorry, MJ couldn't hear any of that. But yeah, make sure to check out MJ on Twitter. There was two different accounts there. And what were those two accounts again? So the personal account is at MJSmith891, which is just random BS. And then for the show, it's at JawsForAMinute, all one word, on Twitter as well. And on Instagram, or Finstagram, because it's a show about shirts. Hi. That was a great high five. I enjoyed it yeah yeah tell him I enjoyed it George he can't hear me tell him I enjoyed it no you're right Outer Spacey Tracy enjoyed that oh yes you're welcome we see it on every episode so alright you guys have a great night thank you everyone for hanging out so much we will be back on tomorrow we've got Escher in house and we are going to we are going to be doing dual sound voltax with TMNT and let's see if Escher can make it to Cowabunga I think he did it his first try and then did it a second try the last time he was in-house making it to Cowabunga. So I'm assuming we'll get there a couple of times at least tomorrow. See you all. And then again back on Thursday. So have a good one. Thanks for streaming. Thanks, George. Oh, wait. I don't have – I keep forgetting to set commercial up over there. Have you been inundated with ads and questions related to TPN's now famous homemade pinball pudding line of puddings? Questions like... TPN's pinball pudding is so good, it must be illegal, right? What the f*** is pinball pudding? How can a collection of content creators also be a pudding? That makes no sense. And we hear you. You want to know what makes TPN so special? The answer is in TPN's secret ingredient. Simply, proof. Other puddings may say they have it too, but watch as they're unable to back those statements up. Well, I'm not a crook. Do you have evidence of that? It might be a tumor. It's not a tumor. Evidence? If you want, we're gonna let you down. _(Acquisition: youtube_groq_whisper, Enrichment: v3)_ --- *Exported from Journalist Tool on 2026-04-13 | Item ID: 3d0a7bda-7473-4b25-a3a8-c2b13a3ebfa4*
