Show Notes Transcript Chapter Markers

Feeling sniffly but spirited, Jeremy and Mike here! Our holiday cheer is unstoppable, even with a few technical hiccups and a blinding 'On Air' sign that's begging for an upgrade. This episode is a cozy blend of gift-giving and geeking out over the Darth Bane series, with a dash of dreidel game fun thrown in for good measure. We're excited to share our seasonal shenanigans, complete with musings on personal branding and a dive into the fascinating Fruit of the Loom logo enigma that's unraveling the threads of memory and mystery.

Ever wondered about the oddities of life or the history behind a hoax? We've got you covered as we take a whimsical wander through the Cardiff Giant tale, ponder the strangeness of improbabilities, and pay homage to the humble beginnings of a certain e-commerce titan. Join us on this quirky journey through the annals of history and the wild world of online shopping, where stories of Amazon's early days mix with tales of trading weatherproof TVs for motorbikes. It's a glimpse into the evolution of consumerism and a nudge to not take life—or laundry—too seriously.

As avid gamers, we couldn't resist a trip down the pixelated paths of our gaming glory days. We're talking clan battles in "Gears of War," the progression of game mechanics in "Assassin's Creed," and the thrill of uncovering Easter eggs in "Halo." We also get real about content creation, the importance of maintaining a healthy balance, and fostering a robust community around our podcast. So, plug in your headphones and let's share some laughs, insights, and a community-centered vibe that's as engaging as it is entertaining.

Speaker 1:

Welcome back to some offense intended. I'm Jeremy Robinson.

Speaker 2:

I am Mike Nick.

Speaker 1:

I think I need to turn the sound down a little, because we weren't talking how we normally do when we were testing it. Yeah, I feel miserable it shows. We woke up today. I didn't want to wake up today, but woke up today and just abs, like the start of aches. Like Stiff don't want to do anything like start coughing. I'm almost thrown up, like I.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, something's going around. Somebody I worked with yesterday. She was feeling like that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so that's why the blanket today, cuz I'm not warm enough, apparently it's a little chilly in this room, though, too.

Speaker 2:

Really, yeah, I can feel it.

Speaker 1:

Oh, not too bad, not tonight cuz the TV's been on normally that when we keep the TV on this room it's fucking hot.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Well, it's been cool outside today too. That's true, it did get really cold this morning but we want to tell people that they should go ahead and follow us and like and.

Speaker 1:

It's gonna be difficult for me to remember stuff today with how I'm feeling. Was it Facebook and Instagram at some offense intended?

Speaker 1:

Twitter and Tiktok at some offense pod YouTube just search some offense intended and yeah, whatever you're listening to us on, was it stitcher?

Speaker 2:

That was a new one, Pod addict or something yeah that was like podcast addict.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 1:

Yeah so you don't miss an episode so I Think it's I don't remember which order these are gonna be in this one's two weeks from now that this is gonna drop. Yeah so this one's like right after New Year's. This was date.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. Okay so by the time this is out, there will have been a holiday, I'm not sure.

Speaker 1:

I'm happy late New Year's.

Speaker 2:

Well, there's gonna be a couple holidays in between.

Speaker 1:

So Mike had gotten me that shirt. That was like Turn your head sideways, kind of shit. So I got Mike a. You can't really see it on the fucking camera.

Speaker 2:

It's a stormtrooper decanter with stormtrooper rocks glasses and Mike is a Star Wars fan, so he loves it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, if you can tell.

Speaker 2:

Star.

Speaker 1:

Wars hat the shirt.

Speaker 2:

I find your lack of cheer disturbing, yeah, so and I I'm on the the dark, the Darth Bane book and the trilogy, and it's so good. He's fighting the guy and actually he's not really fighting him. He's using the force to kill this guy. He's like he's like at least let me pull, draw my sword, my, my lightsaber, see, we can fight, like Sith. He's like do you think I can't eat you just as easily with my lightsaber? And he says, yeah, but at least I can have an honorable death. So Darth Bane is like honors for the living Dead is dead, wow. So he continues to kill him.

Speaker 2:

That sounds pretty good yeah, I think I've only read one Bane book I can't remember. Oh, I'm loving it. I'm looking forward to the next one.

Speaker 1:

So I also got this, and if I had actually woken up today, I would have installed it on the wall behind us, right about there somewhere.

Speaker 2:

So but we are on air.

Speaker 1:

Oh Jesus, it's just like the light bulb and Can't see anything. It's just bright as fuck I.

Speaker 2:

Guess we'll just have to put that outside the door so people know that we're. We're on that's awful and do not be loud. Yeah, it's so bright, it washes it out.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, well, we need better cameras. Then it says on there that you can actually see with the light off. It says on air and it looks dope in person, just like the light bulb look dope in person.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

I think we need to upgrade the camera next.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Because that's dumb. Yeah that's decorate fucking anything. Wait, do Christmas tree. You wouldn't be able to see the Christmas fucking tree over the Christmas lights. You see lights, you'd be. Why is there a blob of lights there? Yeah, there's a pyramid of lights.

Speaker 2:

I think they're in the Illuminati and if we had a menorah there, you couldn't even tell what that's for.

Speaker 1:

I don't think most people could tell what that's for anyway unless they're, unless they're Jewish. Well, well, I Played. I played dreidel for the first time.

Speaker 2:

I've never played two weeks ago.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like I just thought it was a fucking top.

Speaker 2:

That's what I thought at first, when I learned it was a game.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so there's four sides to it. I'm probably not gonna be able to remember like what the four sides are called, but there's a symbol on on all four sides. One of them is none, one of them is Gimmel, one of them is I Shin and one of them is it starts with like an HA. I don't remember yeah but it's basically like you play with Chocolate coins, oh.

Speaker 2:

I thought you're supposed to play with money.

Speaker 1:

I'm sure money either, but either way that's a chocolate currency. And then you put, like everybody puts, one in the pot and you spin it, and if you land on Gimmel you take the whole pot and everybody puts one back in. If you hit the one, that's like HA something you take half the pot. If you get none, it's the next person's turn. And if you get shin, you put one more in and that's the next person's turn. So you just go until everybody's out except for one.

Speaker 2:

I think I've seen Krusty the clown play it.

Speaker 1:

I think I saw him at a casino playing it or something which I'd be a great, I mean game but there's no way they can stack it unless they load the, unless they load the dreidel, which is frowned upon, apparently, in casinos yeah, yeah, that reminds me so many, so many that I work with recently was going on about how, how big is cheat to gambling and I'm like, are you kidding me?

Speaker 2:

how Vegas cheats at? Gambling like do you understand who these corporations are? They're not gonna risk their reputation Taking a few bucks from you that all the odds are already in their favor. They don't have to cheat.

Speaker 1:

Oh see, I thought you met. They were cheating by having the odds In their favor. They're talking about more.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, like rigging the games and shit.

Speaker 1:

I mean, doesn't have an odds in their favor. All the time count is rigging the game.

Speaker 2:

But I mean like let's say you're hot on craps Changing your dice and giving you loaded dice that aren't gonna go in your favor things like that.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I mean, I'm sure that happens sometimes but, I, wouldn't say it's a Common but I wouldn't see.

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't see Caesar's or MGM, you know, worldwide companies.

Speaker 1:

Now I don't know, Because MGM charges for fucking parking when you're staying at the goddamn hotel.

Speaker 2:

They cheat in other ways.

Speaker 1:

So those pieces of shit.

Speaker 2:

Don't play a straight up when they're gambling. Maybe, yeah, they were the first ones to actually start charging for parking in there. Yeah, but they were.

Speaker 1:

They used to be like for charging for, like the public.

Speaker 2:

But if you work there, staying there, I don't think you should be having to pay to park.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, if you work there, you're staying there. I thought it was free for a long time. I guess that fucking changed.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, when I worked at, when I worked at bubblegump, they had a parking lot behind bubblegump but it was not allowed for us Like if you work at bubblegump and you parked in it.

Speaker 2:

You got ridden up. No, no, no, you got towed. Like one day, like three or four people all got their cars towed and they were told multiple times if you parked there, you will get towed. And they did it every day. That's awful. And then when they got their cars towed, they're like what happened? Why did they my car get towed? Oh, we're telling you for weeks it's gonna happen.

Speaker 1:

Thanks, terry, for the blanket. This is the blanket we got from the bowling. I forgot I was gonna ask you that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. Yeah, I was using the blanket I got from bowling also.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's nice, super warm, and it's not because I have this one's from Costco also. So the other one I have downstairs is from Costco, but it's the one that's like there's nobody to talk, like it's Shaq's blanket.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I have one from Costco that's huge, it's enormous.

Speaker 1:

This one's nice because it's almost the same as that blanket, but it's a manageable size If you don't want to be lost in a blanket, which is important sometimes but if you just want like a nice cozy blanket.

Speaker 2:

Well, if you're looking to build a blanket fort, the other one's a good one.

Speaker 1:

Oh, 100%. But there's actually a company that was started based on that premise. It's called like blanket fort.

Speaker 2:

Awesome.

Speaker 1:

And they have. Like it's fucking stupid how big those blankets are.

Speaker 2:

Like here.

Speaker 1:

I'll look them up, because it's a not okay size.

Speaker 2:

On the show community. They made a very big blanket fort. It's a good episode. They also made a pillow fort. It's really good because they end up having a civil war on campus.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I also. This is where this came up. I think I was talking to somebody about it this week or last week that, like somebody, I said something about a blanket and started getting these ads on Facebook of like inflatable blanket, forts A couple of things If it's inflatable.

Speaker 2:

It's not a blanket fort.

Speaker 1:

It's not a blanket fort. Two way to kill kids imagination because you have to use creativity and imagination to build a blanket fort. If you just plug a fucking blower in, yeah, that's taken away a lot, yeah, that's fucking retarded, so blanket fort. I probably should stop saying that as often as I do.

Speaker 2:

But like when we went on, when I would make one of those.

Speaker 1:

So they started it, I think, in 2021. It was like 2021 lockdown suck. Nope didn't mean to cut you off, go ahead.

Speaker 2:

I was just saying when I had to make one. I didn't want to say the words again because we've said it enough, but I had to figure out ways to get it to stay up.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, exactly. Like bouncing on the couches like couches, couch cushion supports every so often yeah. So this says 2021 lockdown sucked for all the reasons, even though some of it was good and positive. We got to spend time in the forest and by the river, we didn't have to commute and we had an excuse not to go anywhere, but times blah, blah, blah. Oh, I thought it was actually going.

Speaker 2:

Well, let me just say first I didn't get a chance to spend any time in the forest of the woods. I still had to commute.

Speaker 1:

But that's not the company I was thinking of.

Speaker 2:

anyway, that was all no.

Speaker 1:

That was Blanket Fort Company. And that's bro what? And they just do the one that, like you, put a tent post on the end of your bed and then, just like an old school cartoon, tent kind of shit, yeah.

Speaker 2:

But none of those things were what I had.

Speaker 1:

Blanket, fort blankets.

Speaker 2:

We still had to go to work.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we had to go to work from home. No, not at all, bro. I know there's a company that did this and it's not coming up at all. I should have brought more Kleenexes in here. I didn't think it was gonna be this bad again already. So apparently I can't find that Blanket Fort Company, which is stupid, because now I'm gonna get Blanket Fort Ads for the next fucking month and a half.

Speaker 2:

Yep.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's a decent segue into this next thing. Do you remember the company Fruit of the Loom?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I do sell the thing.

Speaker 1:

Yes, do you remember their old logo?

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

What did it have in it?

Speaker 2:

It had Apple, it had all the fruit.

Speaker 1:

The older logo, though like before that one, it had all the fruit, but it had something else in it.

Speaker 2:

I don't remember.

Speaker 1:

It had the cornucopia in the background.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 1:

The horn basket. Yeah, the horn of plenty, apparently Fruit of the Loom, says that never happened At all.

Speaker 2:

I don't know.

Speaker 1:

It's a big fight with them right now. So there's this lady on TikTok and it's an unhealthy fight for her. You can tell she's slightly obsessed with it, but I think there's a game to be played either way with that. One of Fruit of the Loom is claiming that it was never part of the logo.

Speaker 2:

I don't know.

Speaker 1:

But she went back and found like the trademark and copyright documents of them describing the logo and it says like these certain fruits and the cornucopia in parentheses, the horn of plenty in the background. So she found the government documents that says that was part of the logo for the trademark. So she and she's like this is how everyone as a kid learned what that fucking thing was. Like mom, what's that? And like point to the basket behind the fruit we got the cornucopia.

Speaker 2:

So I learned about it from.

Speaker 1:

Thanksgiving. Yeah, thanksgiving, that's, it's between the two, I don't remember.

Speaker 2:

But when you first said Fruit of the Loom, though, I thought about the really old commercials where they had people dressed up as a different fruits. Yeah, that's yeah.

Speaker 1:

And I always picture the apple.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's been a long time since I thought of those. Yeah, but so what she's doing is she's in like a battle battle with Fruit of the Loom. She's playing chicken heavily. So she started her own clothing company with T-shirts, hoodies, sweaters, and it says it has the old Fruit of the Loom logo that she actually went in her closet and found an old shirt that actually has that logo that she's talking about. So she used that logo from that shirt because Fruit of the Loom is claiming that they didn't ever use that.

Speaker 2:

Well, fruit of the Loom never used it, and if they say, then they should have no problem with her using it.

Speaker 1:

That's what she's playing. So she started. She started all this stuff like massive logo in the front and under it, like there's a big circle around it. Under it it says mom, what is that? She goes. One of two things is gonna happen. Either I'll make a lot of money with these shirts or I'm gonna get sued and have a cease and desist from Fruit of the Loom.

Speaker 2:

Because that's their logo, which then I would have to admit that they used it.

Speaker 1:

Which then they would have to admit they used it. And this is where she wins on either side. She said in that video that her therapist told her to drop this, which to me that's now over the line of obsession. If your therapist is telling you to fucking let something go now, it's unhealthy obsession. So if they sue her for a cease and desist and that's our trademark and we yes, you're right, we did use this in the past now she can counter sue for fucking mental duress.

Speaker 1:

Well, maybe because it's already documented that her fucking therapist told her to stop.

Speaker 2:

Maybe big underwear got to her therapist.

Speaker 1:

Shaq just knocked on the door, cause it wasn't Shaq a Fruit of the Loom, no, it was Haynes. When Haynes went to August, I know Jordan was Haynes. They always had the Jordan commercials and he showed Jordan.

Speaker 2:

Without the with he'd go up. I think it was on like an airplane. They showed him he. Maybe Shaq did it too, but Jordan actually snagged a tag off of somebody's shirt.

Speaker 1:

Said go tag us. I was sure Shaq did Apparently not.

Speaker 2:

I know for sure Jordan did.

Speaker 1:

It might be Jordan I'm thinking of. It was one of the really fucking good basketball players from back in the day.

Speaker 2:

Well, that would definitely fall under Jordan? Yeah, of course, when it comes to Jordan, he's got more of his shoes than his underwear. He hops.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, I guess it wasn't what I'm thinking of. Damn, shaq's been working the fuck out Like he's got a six pack.

Speaker 2:

I got a six pack too.

Speaker 1:

Damn the fridge. I've been with Dr.

Speaker 2:

Pepper. Oh yeah, yeah, I've been seeing a lot about him.

Speaker 1:

He said he wants to lose 20 more pounds with a specific goal in mind to do an underwear ad with my sons. So maybe I'm remembering the future again, cause that happens sometimes to me.

Speaker 2:

That's weird, that just sounds weird.

Speaker 1:

Well, I mean supporting family.

Speaker 2:

Let's get in our underwear.

Speaker 1:

I mean, look at how cheesy and corny all the fucking old Fruit of the Luminhans commercials were. They were all like family oriented kind of shit and like come down on Christmas morning and like a T-shirt and like boxer briefs or some shit.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

That's what they all used to be and like oh, it's a family thing, because that shows that they have stuff for every age, sex and size.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

True, so if it's, I don't know how big Shaq's kids are.

Speaker 2:

I know when I was going up though Fruit of the Luminhans it was the thought was always tidy whiteies. I never really thought of their other brand or their other products.

Speaker 1:

Shaq's kids height.

Speaker 2:

Would it be weird if he did it with his kids with underroofs?

Speaker 1:

Holy fuck, okay, well, never mind. I was going to say maybe it'll show that you know they have sizes for everyone. Shaq's kids are fucking huge. Yeah, the shortest one in this picture, I think, is his wife, comes up to his shoulder. All the rest are at or above his shoulder line. That is large. Yes, that is a big family in several ways, because that's I think that's six kids.

Speaker 2:

Now they have to do the commercials, so then they can get a custom made so they'll fit.

Speaker 1:

That's actually. Shaq is a really fucking good person.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I know.

Speaker 1:

One of the things that he does is like kids that are like grow way too fucking fast and like there was a kid that wanted to play basketball or like do whatever it had nothing to do with. He wanted to play basketball and Shaq's a basketball player, but I think this kid would war 18s or some shit and like he couldn't, like he had to cut open the front of shoes because he couldn't fucking get any shoes that were 18s. Shaq invited him, like flew him out to his custom shoemaker and had like 15, 20 pairs of shoes made for the kid.

Speaker 2:

That's awesome. Yeah, I've heard that he's a great guy. I hear that he does a lot of nice things. He's one of the celebrities I was telling you about that.

Speaker 1:

I saw video talking about He'll find people in Walmart and be like, hey, go ask your parents if I can buy you all this shit. He doesn't say shit. But like they come back and they're like what do you mean? Like no, you didn't just see Shaq. And he's like no, come on. So they come over and I'm like, oh, my God, it's Shaq and I can't like load up the cart and like groceries, a bicycle, like toys, like hell of a shit, just like load up two carts and I'll pay for all of it, like that's dope.

Speaker 2:

I once had a pair of his Reeboks when he was still playing for Orlando, and I love those shoes. They were cool and they're also the pump the Reebok pump.

Speaker 1:

I think I remember those, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

But I had. I suppose we had the Shaq ones.

Speaker 1:

They're not as good as the PF Flyers, but they're close.

Speaker 2:

No, I liked them a lot.

Speaker 1:

PF Flyers made you run faster and jump higher.

Speaker 2:

I shouldn't run any faster.

Speaker 1:

I'll catch on fire. Definitely are not remembering the sandlot. No, have you seen?

Speaker 2:

the sandlot. I have seen it, but it's been a long time. Okay, but if I run any faster, the friction is going to cause me to catch on fire.

Speaker 1:

Jesus Christ, let's see I have a couple of other notes. There's a thing going around again about apparently this happened like years ago, but somebody at work was just telling me about it that there was a perfectly square cloud in Arizona and like it's coming out again, Like it just happened again. So I don't know if it's just resurfacing or if it happened again.

Speaker 1:

But it's like somebody on the ground recording of like what the fuck, this isn't normal. And it looks up and it's like blue skies. And then it pans over to like exactly what the ceiling would look like if the ceiling, like, took this square Well, obviously not that part, but if you took a square room ceiling and just popped it in the sky as a cloud, that's what it looked like Like hard 90 degree angles, hard edges, hard cuts.

Speaker 2:

I've never seen that.

Speaker 1:

And then it cut to like a short picture or video from an airplane of the top of it and it looked the same and it was like what the fuck is this Like UFO or this or that or whatever? So like I looked it up just before we started recording so that I could talk a little bit about it and it was like one was brought up like a year and a half ago, one was like five years ago. Like I don't know if it just randomly resurfaces Like some stuff.

Speaker 2:

If it's all from the same area, I'm guessing it resurfaced.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Cause I don't think they're. Well, I just typed Arizona and that's unless Arizona just keeps getting clouds like that and nobody else does.

Speaker 1:

Well, I mean Arizona has a lot of desert and like a lot of the just like the Love Lock caves have that like massive mythology behind it in the lore of the giants that they found in one of the caves. Like Arizona has a lot of shit, a lot of story behind it, a lot of the desert places around it.

Speaker 2:

Have you ever heard of the Cardiff giant?

Speaker 1:

Is that somewhere in like Cardiff, England?

Speaker 2:

Well, they found what they said was a giant. Is that in England?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, okay.

Speaker 2:

But then they took it over to.

Speaker 1:

I know that from Forchwood, but really good series.

Speaker 2:

But they took it over to New York, this guy, to the state of New York, not the city, and they had it on display. Well, I don't want it to, I'll state New York. As far as that, I don't want people to think I'm saying that was in New.

Speaker 1:

York City. They took it to Las Vegas.

Speaker 2:

They took it to Nevada not New Mexico, but they had it and he charged people to come in and see this giant and when people are going in, going, ooh, ah, it's a giant, oh my God, it's so scary. And then it came out later that it was a it was a hoax.

Speaker 1:

It wasn't real at all. So did he get sued for charging people?

Speaker 2:

Probably, but it was so many years ago, it wasn't like social media and everything. Oh okay, so they still had, you know, people going that hadn't heard the news that, in reality, no, this is not a real giant. Yeah, yeah but they were ever seen a though it's a movie where they referred to it, but they didn't actually, weren't actually talking about the giant. They used it as a name. It was. It was unusual, huh, and one day I heard about it again, so I looked it up.

Speaker 1:

That's interesting. I am still hungry because I forgot to eat this being sick is miserable. Um, yeah, so like I don't, there's weird shit that happens with like clouds and weather and like all kinds of shit. There's weird stuff that happens. Maybe there was a square cloud, square cloud. Maybe Like the chances of there's chances for a lot of stuff to happen, like oh, absolutely. Believe it or not, there are odds that your T-shirt comes out of the dryer completely folded.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, now that the odds on that are pretty, pretty long, because I've never actually had that.

Speaker 1:

Let's see what are the odds. A T-shirt comes out of the dryer.

Speaker 2:

Did you feel any uh tremors last week? Any earthquake?

Speaker 1:

tremors. Oh my God, I forgot to fucking look that up I. It was a massive earthquake.

Speaker 2:

Massive. I forgot. I tried to look it up but I didn't see it. But I felt it. I was laying in bed and it felt really weird.

Speaker 1:

Even if, um, blah, blah blah, this is on Reddit, so it shouldn't. It should have decent data.

Speaker 2:

I was going to say that if it was on Reddit, then it must be spot on.

Speaker 1:

Uh, if the theory of infinite probability is true, that at least once in history whether it has happened yet or not there was or is going to be a dryer cycle that ends in all the clothes being perfectly folded. See, that's, I just wanted one.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, just wanted one, I just want one.

Speaker 1:

Uh, and then this guy. This guy posted a picture of like that this is going to happen and somebody goes. My luck, it would happen like that in the washer. Somebody goes. I'd let it sit there for two days until it dried too, if it happened in the washer.

Speaker 2:

Um, in in infinite universe. Infinite universes, that means that someplace there's another universe where it happens all the time. Yeah, and people there are probably taking it out and unfolding it because it's convenient to them in some way.

Speaker 1:

So if I was drying 10 shirts for 45 minutes, what would be the probability of them all being folded in a stack and the dryer for the dry cycle is over and nobody's nobody's given a number answer. I thought there was an answer like a solid answer.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I don't know. I wouldn't even know how to work that yeah.

Speaker 1:

Me. That's why I looked, because there's a lot more probability focused people than me. Um, yeah, that I don't know. So I was reading something I was. I found a video of like early Jeff Bezos talking about the first order that was placed on Amazon. Have you heard about that?

Speaker 2:

No.

Speaker 1:

It's very interesting. So it actually came from Bulgaria. The order did.

Speaker 2:

I was going to say so he remembers my order. It's nice of him.

Speaker 1:

It was in 1995. It was it might have been the first order that was over a hundred dollars or something.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

But it was a $200 order. It happened within the first six months of starting Amazon in 95, and from Bulgaria. So they shipped Bezos, as they shipped Amazon, a package that had a floppy disk in it and on the on the label on the floppy disk it said slide open. Slide open the floppy disk and there's $200 in here. The Port Authority is in Bulgaria, steal money and can't read English. That's fucking genius. Yeah, so if they had just shipped $200 in an envelope, they never would have hit them, they never would have got to Amazon. Like, hide it inside a floppy disk, that's awesome, with a note in English, because they know the Port Authority can't read English. That's fantastic.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's great yeah.

Speaker 1:

That's a great story.

Speaker 2:

I like that. But yeah, I didn't buy my first Amazon until I actually moved to Vegas and I lived in Omaha and never used it, but I always heard commercials for it and they were always like they were always advertising selling books.

Speaker 1:

It wasn't, yeah, at the beginning, it was only books. Can you still look back at your at your earliest order?

Speaker 2:

It should be in your history.

Speaker 1:

Your orders. Let's go back and see what our first Amazon orders were. Mine goes all the way back to 2008.

Speaker 2:

It would have to be back to the first order. I mean, I bet I have to check mine.

Speaker 1:

I bought Gears of War II limited edition. Gears of War II Amazon exclusive the Lancer on August 26th of 2008.

Speaker 2:

I have no idea, because mine's not, when it's load right now.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you just go to orders, I know, but.

Speaker 2:

I'm trying to bring. I open up the app and it's just.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, orders filter and then all the way down. I thought I bought stuff before 08 on Amazon. I think I was on eBay before then and I think eBay got rid of that history. Yeah, because I've had an eBay account, I think, since I was like 14.

Speaker 2:

I've had an eBay account for a long time and I haven't bought anything in a long time, but I hit like 100 different positive.

Speaker 1:

I think I'm at like 500 something right now.

Speaker 2:

I only bought. I never sold anything, but I got like I got the cause. Yeah, they had levels for it yeah. And I got my star for, you know, 100.

Speaker 1:

Nice I got. I used to buy skateboard decks, blanks, because skateboarding was so fucking expensive to do anything with and I found on eBay you can buy like between five and 10 decks at a time and get them for like $15 a deck so, and they were like 50, $40 or $50 at the store. So I'd buy like eight or nine decks. I'd keep one, have a brand new deck and then sell the rest to all my friends and their friends. That like 30 bucks a pop and was making lots of money.

Speaker 2:

Nice.

Speaker 1:

IRS, don't come after me. I was 14 or 15.

Speaker 2:

Um, looks like my first order was in 2005. Oh, okay. Um, it says here Amazon wireless insert. I don't know what the hell that was. I click on it.

Speaker 1:

It's nothing, mike was one of the first narrow link people. We got the Amazon wireless insert no five. I thought something was off.

Speaker 2:

But, um, the first item that I bought that actually shows something was the, um, the Motorola Razr uh V3.

Speaker 1:

I remember it.

Speaker 2:

I thought it was a cool phone back then. It was.

Speaker 1:

What year was that?

Speaker 2:

2005.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I think my first. Do you remember all the funds you had?

Speaker 2:

Most of them yeah, but um, and then after that, the next one that shows something that I bought besides the phone was a uh um, family guys do his guide. Family guy um, live in Las Vegas.

Speaker 1:

What is that? I've never heard of that one.

Speaker 2:

That was a CD, oh, okay, I think it was a show tunes and stuff that sung by the characters, and then, uh, 2006, yeah, it goes all the way back to 2005. That was when I first started shopping on Amazon.

Speaker 1:

That's cool.

Speaker 2:

I became a um prime member before most, back when prime was cheaper and it didn't even have any.

Speaker 1:

Prime was like $5 a month or something, I don't remember.

Speaker 2:

I'll have to ask my mom. It was like $76. Yeah, but it was. I did it for the shipping, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'll have to ask my mom, cause I know she bought stuff long time ago, so I'll check when I'm in Vegas next week.

Speaker 2:

Um, but yeah, I shop on there every so often. Sometimes I'll I'll buy a bunch of stuff at once, and other times I'll I'll go a drought without buying anything. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

There was something else I was going to talk about.

Speaker 2:

I'm surprised they don't check on me. Are you okay? You haven't. You haven't opened up your app in a while. Well, you said the prime deal of the day. I used to check that every day cause sometimes it was something really good. I remember that.

Speaker 1:

I also remember Woot Uh. Woot is a clearance site that like a lot of like they would buy like an overstock of whatever like. People are like fuck, we need to get rid of this. Just sell all hundred of these, whatever the fuck, whatever company, and they'll buy it for like a 10th of the price.

Speaker 2:

Wasn't there two of them, wasn't it Woot?

Speaker 1:

No, it's just Woot.

Speaker 2:

I know.

Speaker 1:

And then, uh, so they'd sell it for like a quarter of the price. So you're getting a smoking deal and they're still making a lot of money. So they were doing this for a long time and that's. I fucking loved their website, Like that's where I bought that $10,000 weatherproof TV for a grand that I ended up never hooking up at the house in Vegas cause I was going to make like an outside video game thing that you can play from the pool.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And I ended up trading that uh, $600, $600. I paid for a dirt bike, that I traded for a street bike. I traded that street bike and that TV for a $10,000 truck $1600.

Speaker 2:

Nice.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so like that's all kinds of deals all the fucking time on that site.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, I remember you. Uh, you sent me a message and they had a deal on something else and Amazon bought them.

Speaker 1:

I don't know when, but it was good for them. But now they don't have great deals. Now they have good deals.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Cause Amazon can make fucking more money. Amazon buys Woot, woot $110 million.

Speaker 2:

And they bought Woot for some loot in 2010.

Speaker 1:

I didn't know, they bought it all the way back in 2010.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I remember seeing Woot a lot. I used to advertise a lot.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, high, lm, high, sell them cheap. Was their business reputation? Yeah, $110 million in 2010 for that. Good for them. Bro, did you know there's speaking of selling companies? There's three brothers. I think it was Germany, that, I think. When Uber started, they said hey, bring Uber to Europe and let us run it and pay us X amount. They said absolutely not. And I said okay, how can we figure this out? So they took Uber, broke it down, made their own, called easy taxi.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And then started it in Europe almost immediately and then sold it to Uber when Uber went worldwide for like 150, $150 million. And then they were like, bro, we did it once, let's do it again. That's all they've done for the past like 10 to 15 years.

Speaker 2:

Damn.

Speaker 1:

Is find a company that's starting up and, like super promising, ask them. Ask them first bring it over here, let us run it, pay us this amount and when they say no, it's not going to be an if. When they say no, okay, we gave you the option. Build a competitor, ramp it up.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And then it gets absorbed and you cash out. That is brilliant.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that's a great, that's great.

Speaker 1:

And then I started thinking how can you do that here?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I was just thinking that too, so so, but I always, whenever I think of Uber, one of the things that comes to mind is when I was, when I was working for Olive Garden, I was delivering food to like the corporate foods. It'd be a big catering order and we had an order. I had to deliver to the Uber headquarters in Las Vegas and I just thought it was funny because they had it Uber each at the time.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but they were, but they had me deliver to them yeah that's great, so I they tipped well, so that was good. That's weird, because they don't pay their drivers tips very well. Now, now they do. They didn't used to, didn't? They used to like half it, and they got in trouble for that.

Speaker 2:

I can't. I'm not sure, but I just know that, uh, and they got a big order too, so they took pretty well. But yeah, I had to. I didn't know that they had a headquarters there, to be honest, until I had to go to it.

Speaker 1:

I think a lot of people have, like, corporate headquarters. Trying to do our quotes on the blanket, I think a lot of people have corporate headquarters in a lot of major cities.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Like whether it's a couple people that are in a small office or not. I think they have, just so that they can be like a local, a local business for whatever I delivered to a um, a slot, a slot machine place.

Speaker 2:

They had all the slot machines the video poker machines, igt, um, I might have been another one there's more than one but I delivered it and they had a lot of some cool slots. I'm like I haven't even seen these yet. Yeah.

Speaker 1:

They're constantly like R and D and new slots. Yeah, Constantly.

Speaker 2:

I was like I want to play that one.

Speaker 1:

Uh, this one might have to be a short episode, not like right now, but I don't know that I'm going to do another 30 minutes. You're not.

Speaker 1:

You're not seeming to do very well right now Um yeah, Cause the the aches are setting in even worse on my, on my back. Uh oh, I put a note falling asleep playing video games. From what you were saying last week, oh yeah, Well, if you're listening in order, this is two weeks ago, conversation. Um. So I used to fall asleep playing video games. That's I still sometimes do, but I don't play on console and watch games. I haven't played on console in a while, so it hasn't happened very often, but I used to like, when I'd fall asleep, you know cause like it would often be playing Halo.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

You would know, cause I would be spinning around shooting into the air, cause I would just like sticks in when I fall asleep. And then it started being like walking forward, shooting like left to right, so like evolving how I fall asleep, playing video games, up to apparently play better. And then I think it was 2011 when LA noir came out. I don't know why I remember that fucking. I remember that time cause it was the year before I went to E three. That's why 2011, la noir came out. I was super excited for it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

It's a detective like super open world detective game. That you was just like observe everything like super fucking fine point details and I wait, I stayed, stayed awake. I can't even fucking talk right now. I stayed awake for the midnight release, got home, started playing it and I think it like one, 30 or two o'clock. I had to have fallen asleep Cause I remember being on like level three.

Speaker 2:

Did you beat the game while you were asleep?

Speaker 1:

I went four and a half levels while I was fucking sleeping.

Speaker 2:

That's crazy.

Speaker 1:

And I'm like so I woke up and I'm like, oh okay, like I'll keep playing. I remember I was talking to this guy. Where the fuck am I Like? This isn't where I remember. So I could pull up the menu and like the list of stuff you have to do in this and that. Bro, where, like you're at this level? I'm like, look up online. I'm like there's somebody that's already beat it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And they're like. It's about three and a half to four hours between that level to this level. How the fuck did I play a fairly intricate game? I have no idea how that would happen. I was sleeping. I don't even think I was drinking, Just sleeping.

Speaker 2:

But I will say this though when you're playing Halo and you fall asleep, it'd be very embarrassing for the other person to get killed by the person who fell asleep.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I'm sure it happened. I'm sure it happened.

Speaker 2:

Somebody either in front of you or jumps in overhead when you're spinning on a shooting out, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'm sure it's happened a couple of times.

Speaker 2:

I was. It's happened to me a couple of times where I've been playing Zelda. I was playing down playing Zelda and I doze off some and I wake up and my character is just walking through a field or walking into. Fortunately, it's never been where I've like walked into a thing of monsters and gotten killed. But walking into a river of lava. Yeah, I know that could happen.

Speaker 1:

That's. I'm really glad video games and technology has come as far as it has with like I was talking to a couple of people uh, talking to Peter about it of playing Gears of War. Like back in the day, like when I first got Gears of War I didn't like it, like the play style felt weird, like. I don't even think I finished the first level and I returned it to GameStop. I'm like, yeah, it's not for me, Like let me get a couple other games.

Speaker 2:

So you did stop your game at game and give it back to games. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1:

It was games Game. I'll stop and give it back. It was actually UB games at the time, so yeah, it's still the same company. Yeah, well, it didn't used to be yeah, um, so, uh, what was I going with that?

Speaker 2:

That games have improved and they're much better than they used to be.

Speaker 1:

So then I started. I started doing a couple of I beat like perfect, dark zero. I was starting to like Halo because that was the first time I went to Xbox, because I sold my PS two and traded in all the PS two games to get a 360. And I'm pretty sure the manager doesn't work there anymore. Yeah, but I went in there every day when I was working at the grocery store for like three to three months or whatever, but I would go in and like hang out at the UB games and I wasn't 17 yet and I think it was like a day before I turned 17 or like something.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and he sold me like all of these fucking mature games. I'm like bro, you know he goes, don't say it out loud. Okay, that's fine.

Speaker 2:

I used to go to uh in Vegas. I used to. It was on windmill. I used to go to game crazy a lot. Yeah, I liked that better than the game stop across the street by a lot.

Speaker 1:

There was a game crazy on like Boulder and like me, but it felt like a Spencers. It was weird. I don't like it.

Speaker 2:

I know the people who were in there. They knew me, they, they, they could recommend games to me. Yeah, and the one across the street, it was like you'd walk in. First of all it was. It was a game stop, it was a small, small store. Yeah, You'd walk in and there'd be kids everywhere Just running back and forth and you're like about to triple with them. Yeah, there was, it was.

Speaker 1:

I might have seen that like three times at game stop and it's in a mall, yeah.

Speaker 2:

It was. It was not good. So I used to go to, like I said, game crazy. And then, Plus, since they were owned by also Hollywood video, they could actually sell the games that they used to rent and you could get them for cheap.

Speaker 1:

I think that was what the one on Boulder and like me was, was. It was a combo store, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Cause it was both the same company.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and it was like a a like a night and day difference, Like there's a Hollywood video and it's bright and welcoming, oh yeah. And then there's, there's a line and it's a fucking Spencer's Like just dingy, fucking like metal cages, Like why is this weird change here? This isn't necessary.

Speaker 2:

The one that I used to go to was not like it was actually pretty, it was pretty good, but, yeah, it was a big difference when you'd walk and there was just a like a doorway in between the two.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Well that's. It wasn't even like a doorway doorway, well, like an open doorway.

Speaker 2:

That's what I mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, um, but what I was getting at with like the technology changes was that like when I I got Gyrza War again cause he's like I really think you, you'll like it and I think you should try it again I'm like, all right, fine, give me the game. So I take it home and play it and fucking like falling off instantly. I loved playing the horror. I'm like, why the fuck didn't I like this? And then so I start playing online and start doing really well. And then my older sister started playing online and she met a couple guys from that was the oh yeah clan AYC, and I started playing with them. They're like, bro, you're fucking good, like you should join us. All right, cool.

Speaker 1:

So we started playing clan battles and started just destroying, and the only way that you could like capture clips then was you had to have a fucking capture card. That you had. So you had your 360. You had the component or the the red, white and yellows coming off the back run it through a capture card that's hooked up to a laptop or a computer right there and then to your TV. So several things. One now you don't have it matters. Sometimes. Now you don't have the instantaneous response that you should have because it has to run through a capture card. And two, it's an extra piece of fucking. Like they were like $800. Like the 360. Oh, I know, I've never seen a presale yeah, I remember seeing a presale.

Speaker 1:

Capture cards were like six or $800 for a decent one.

Speaker 2:

And now you just push a button.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Now, it's just now. I accidentally clip shit all the time on my computer because I'm like I have it hot key to like alt S.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And like I'll do a couple of things and like switch over and like drop ammo and it's like clip, captured, fucking stop.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, every every once in a while when I'm playing, they don't have the video, but every once in a while I'll be trying to hit one button. I'll accidentally hit the screenshot picture and I get a picture on my screen. I'm like that's not what I'm shooting for. I was trying to bring up the map.

Speaker 1:

But that's trying to take a picture, so like when I was, when I was growing up. I was. I was still 17 when I was doing all that If I had better sportsmanship because I wasn't, I was an angry child. Very angry, like a lot of people were. Like bro, I don't know how you can string together so many cuss words, yelling at someone and it all makes sense. I don't want to meet you in person, yeah.

Speaker 1:

And I'm like thanks, that's not a compliment. But also like my parents were super strict. So like if I went pro, like have to travel and do all that, it was a probably. No, you can't. So like if those two things were different, it'd probably been a way different life, yeah. And then like that's. That's one of the frustrating things to me now of playing video games is like it used to be very apparent.

Speaker 2:

So if you went pro, then maybe one day the president would call you and have you go to the White House and save the world from aliens that are turning over the new video games.

Speaker 1:

It used to be very apparent like how you could get better at a game of like, oh okay, well, he killed me this way, and then like watch the kill cam or watch somebody else play for a little bit and be like, oh okay, so I need to learn this movement and I can do this, I can do this and I'll be better. So, like I was improving all the time, like I knew how to do all the hacks and gears award, just in case somebody else did the crab walk which, if nobody's familiar with video games or crab walks, you don't have to listen to this part but it was basically like you go into cover on a doorway and you roll into cover on the other side of the doorway and right before you get there you pull the left stick back to jump out and then you jump into a crab walk which is like 1.7 times the speed of running and you can shoot while you're running.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so like just wall bouncing I could normally kill somebody in a crab walk. But if there was the whole team crab walking, I would get into a crab walk, kill all of them. And then there's like there was spots you get under the map in most of the maps and like the only time I did was and you can shoot up from the bottom of the map and kill people. So like the only time I would do that is when there's someone under the map.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, the thing I like about games now is that there's different ways you can do things. You don't have to Do it the set way, like I was playing Zelda this morning and Well, like the different options because of how you can make stuff.

Speaker 2:

Well, yeah, that, and like I go into this room and you're in a cage. You're supposed to get to the shrine at the end of it and you're supposed to get over this cage. Now there's different ways you can do it. Now, me, when I walked into it, I'm like I'm not gonna fucking take the time to look around. I grabbed a balloon and I just float it up and I and I I glided down and then I was like I'm curious what the other people did. Apparently there was a Like a board on the side of the thing that you just move with your ultra hand, set it up on top, then you can extend through it and be on top of it. But me I just like I said I just used an octopus.

Speaker 1:

Well and see, that's. That's the unique part of that game and this is one of the reasons I stopped liking video games for a while is Zelda is unique because you can do all of that, yeah, and no other video game Can you really do much of that. Gears of War had a very unique play style. That started like it was kind of blocky and wasn't super refined, but it felt good once you learned how to do it. Yeah, and call of duty had its own. That's basically stayed the same and I get gotten a little more fluid over the years, but it's it just feels, eh.

Speaker 2:

But even even going back to like grant of title three, I would see the way people would pass certain missions and and I'd be like, oh, that's interesting, I did it way different than that. I like my idea better. Yeah, like I, my idea would be Much better.

Speaker 1:

But what I'm getting at with the movement is like, slowly, over time, like years of war two Bucked up a lot of the movement then Gears of War one had. Like you can't wall bounce as well, you can't do a lot of the stuff they used to do, and They've made it so that Maybe it's a good business move because they made it so more people can enjoy everything, but the people that were very serious about it started hating it.

Speaker 1:

Of course years of war three was worse. Here's the war four and five was slightly worse and like I stopped playing. I played five for like a week because I had a free trial. I'm like no, absolutely not. And Then, like Call of Duty, is this is the same of? Like it's, it's slowly progressed. And then, like Halo has changed a little bit, but not a lot. Yeah, that's still fairly fun. Assassin's Creed as much as I really fucking don't like the, the like a battle the battle mechanics, the combat mechanics.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I 100 fucking percent respect that they stuck with how they are.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 1:

They have not changed one fucking thing, like they've improved it a little, but they haven't changed how it works. They came up with one game recently.

Speaker 2:

That's supposed to be a bit different saga. I'm gonna make people unhappy, but they're bringing out two games, so one's gonna keep the same same same formula, but I guess the other ones give me somewhat different. I don't know, that's what.

Speaker 1:

I, I don't know that. I'd seen something about that online recently but it's like from 2007 and now that's 16 years that they've stayed the same. Oh, I know, like other than Mario, that might be the longest fucking like we stayed the same ever. Yeah and it's hard for Mario to change.

Speaker 2:

Yeah cuz.

Speaker 1:

It's a side scroller where you jump.

Speaker 2:

Well, they've got the 3d, They've got the paper Mario, they've done some. Yeah, those are different, variations are not like they have.

Speaker 1:

They have like Assassin's Creed, like the comic, the novel. Yeah the graphic novel fucking games that are a little bit different, but they're.

Speaker 2:

They're different on purpose but Mario, I like, I like, I Like the Mario Kart a lot.

Speaker 2:

Mario Kart was great but, um, but I'm saying about, like Grand Theft Auto, like there's a mission where you have to kill these delivery trucks for the fish company. They're ran by the, by the triads, and Like I would see people trying to kill these trucks. There's three of them you have to get and they're getting out of their car and shooting at them and and chasing them and hitting them with a car and I'm like you know you can do drive-bys right.

Speaker 2:

You pull right beside it, you shoot it, and you shoot it, and you shoot it. Then, when you see it catch on fire, you drive away, yeah, and then it blows up. And then you say, oh, you got that one done and you're on your way to the next car.

Speaker 1:

That's one of one of my favorite things to do. And then I wanted to play. I'm wanted to work in video games for a long time. Like that was the first thing I tried to do in college, maybe second, and I was gonna work at 2k games as a video game tester and then was like, no, I'm gonna go to school in Phoenix and do and do whatever so, but is, in Halo 3, there's the Easter egg skulls that you can find and you have to like it's pretty intricate, like how you have to get to a lot of them and a lot of them are like oh well, you have to grenade jump, you have to rocket jump, you have to this, you have to that, you have to this, you have to that.

Speaker 1:

So my thing I'm really good at breaking video games. I always have been. So I found ways to get the warthog, or the mongoose, which is the quad or the full-size SUV for anybody that doesn't have Halo with the, with the mini gun on the back, to the skulls. I Would drive it down, like through the caves that you're not supposed to be able to get it to, or or ghost, because, like, if you break the wings off a ghost, you can fit it through a hallway, like sideways, and just slow boost it. So I got to most of the skulls with a vehicle, nice and then took pictures or I think the 360. You could take a screenshot but you couldn't capture. Yeah, I took, I took screenshots and then I uploaded all those Because people I used to be super active on the halo and the bungee forms no, you can't get that there. I'd upload the screenshot. What now? Yeah, that's what's this.

Speaker 2:

Looks like I'm there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, look like it?

Speaker 2:

We see, that's the other thing. Is it used to be, though, with with Easter eggs? Like there's one in grant of dolly three where you have to get a truck, pull it up to this wall, jump over the wall and get over the other side and see like there's no, you can't walk around the corner and be behind this wall. Yeah, you literally have to go over it. When you go the other side, you see it's like graffiti on the wall saying you're not supposed to be here. That's an.

Speaker 2:

Easter egg. Yeah, now, nowadays it's like oh, there's an Easter egg, did you see it? It's a billboard. It looks like Miami. It's like no, that's not a fucking Easter egg.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they're like oh this, this Easter egg you just tripped over, it's a fucking cassette tape that has the theme song for X and Y this thing that happened in the beginning credits.

Speaker 2:

It just smacked you in the face. It's an Easter egg?

Speaker 1:

No, it's not no, like Easter eggs are hidden. It used to be like during the beginning credits you have to hit a certain button, sequence that only Definitely not filling in those blanks fill in whatever blanks of describing words that you want to would be able to find On an accident and remember what buttons they hit in what order. Yeah, and then they were like bro, do this. You won't believe what happens.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, or like I said, like there's one, there's one. We had to jump from one building and hit the other building, just right, and you go through this window and in that there was literally an Easter egg. And it said Easter egg on it.

Speaker 1:

I think there was one of the skulls that was painted like an Easter egg because, like each, each skull in halo was uh, was something different too like you would have birthday party grunt. They're like when you head shot it grunts, it just pop and confetti and we.

Speaker 2:

I mean, I like, I like how they have some things in in like grant of dotto, where you'll be driving along and there'll be, uh, I think it's in three. You see a billboard and it has uh it looks like a An advertisement to visit florida and it says on it welcome to vice city. And the next game to come out was vice city. Mm-hmm, that was cool, but I still wouldn't call that an Easter egg, because it's right there.

Speaker 2:

Yeah no, you don't have to look for it. You don't have to do anything tricky to get to it.

Speaker 1:

I mean it's there's harder Easter eggs than others, like if if it's not as like Part of a mission. I think it can be considered that, but it's not but if you're, if it's just there, yeah, but it's not a good one.

Speaker 2:

No, I mean, like a lot of times, especially in that part of of uh Liberty city, I'm driving along, I'm usually doing a mission and fighting things and trying not to get killed, so I'm not really looking at the billboard anything.

Speaker 1:

Well, there you go. So now it's an Easter egg, that's not somewhere you normally look.

Speaker 2:

But it's right, there I mean walk yourself into that one. It's not far from the airport.

Speaker 1:

Which.

Speaker 2:

I didn't like in grand theft auto three, they had one airplane you could get and you had to drive it back to to, uh, to another garage, to finish a list of cars you stole, but this thing was called to drive the airplane. Yes, because it was a dodo Jesus, so it didn't have wings and it would. But it would go up, like you're driving along and you're wanting to keep it on the ground and the thing would just start to go up.

Speaker 1:

The first time.

Speaker 2:

I tried to do it. It actually went up and went right off the side of the bridge, so I had to do it all over again. I've actually got three miles an hour. Oh, it sucked. And then the bridge Is a drawbridge. Where the is the middle of it goes up and down Uh-huh. But when they had the definitive edition?

Speaker 1:

you just fell through the bridge. Yeah, I remember the video.

Speaker 2:

You said and that that pissed me off because, like in the first game, the original you could drive up the bridge and see where it had. It was blocked off when you couldn't go over the other island. But this one I went up to go see that and, yeah, I couldn't go to the other island but I also couldn't stay on the bridge um, as if, if you don't mind staying, we'll watch a movie that just finally came out on netflix.

Speaker 1:

It's uh, oh fuck, I can't think of the name. I'll have to look it up. So zack snider, very famous director, took an idea for a movie to Disney.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we talked about this yeah it's actually out now.

Speaker 1:

Nice, they came out, I think, last thursday. I think it was either like a couple days ago or last week. So it's out now if you want to, if you want to watch that.

Speaker 2:

Are you gonna be up for it?

Speaker 1:

I mean because you're Like sitting there not doing anything probably because you might fall asleep. I don't I feel like miserable awake. I don't feel miserable asleep, all right, um See, zack, zack, snider, rebel moon. Um yeah, those definitely weren't any other words. I was thinking.

Speaker 2:

Fuck. When you said you said zack, zack, in my mind I kept thinking gala finakis, completely different person very different. Yeah, very well talented in their own way, though.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so we'll uh, we'll watch rebel moon and then, um, next, I think Next recording that drops, we'll be talking about it, because it'll be like a week after I get back from vegas.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, we've got um the episode that comes out this week. How many? I don't even know how many we're technically too ahead right now.

Speaker 1:

So this one that we're we're recording comes out the eighth. So the one that we recorded two weeks ago comes out next week when I'm in vegas, yeah, and then this one will be the week I get back from vegas and then We'll record one. We'll still be one ahead, yeah, because that one time when we were like bullshitting I was drunk and we're like yeah, let's do another one.

Speaker 1:

It's all the sugar that I had this past week Because I've been really good about fucking not having sugar, and then I go here's Christmas Like I didn't gorge myself, but it was definitely more than I normally have and it's If you look at the time, the timing on people getting sick, it's normally within the like week or two after Halloween, like when they eat Fucking pounds of sugar.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Then then around Christmas oh no, it's just flu season. No, you're fucking killing yourself.
