(00:00):
Hello everyone, welcome to the Final 3 Brain Cells podcast featuring myself, John Coday,

(00:06):
as well as NanoBunTV and Gears, don't fucking interrupt my introduction, bitch.
We introduce each other, you're not allowed to do that.
Excuse me.
Oh my god, Jesus Christ.
I didn't know.
Wait, what?
How does this work?
How does this work?
I mean, at least last time we had each other introduce, like, I pointed to you and had
you say your name and I pointed to him and had him say his name.

(00:28):
I'm gay.
Oh, okay.
Uh, NanoBunTV.
You're not.
This is just a lie.
He's not at all.
I'm gay.
This is lies and slander.
We have evidence against this.
We have evidence.
Well, we have evidence.
All right.
So, for everyone at home, John is currently, um, feeling ill.
So, he's in bed.
I feel like shit.
There's a couple things going on here.

(00:49):
I'm not sure what's going on.
There's a couple things going on here.
Number one, I feel like crap.
So, I'm laying in my bed.
I am very, very heavily medicated on all sorts of things.
So many drugs right now.

(01:11):
So, I don't know what I'm going to say.
About halfway through, I am taking, how many can I take of this?
Taking the directions.
Two.
Two or one.
Two or one.
Consult a doctor.
Don't do things that I do.
Yeah.
I took a lot of-
He's stupid.
I took a lot of drugs.
Not once.
Four medications.
All at once that do the same shit.

(01:32):
No.
No.
No.
Listen.
It will be fine.
It will be fine.
I will, hey, this is an Advil PM.
This will knock me out so then I can maybe sleep.
What else is there?
Yeah, the second reason.
Oh, I am also at my parents' house.
Can you grab me my energy?

(01:54):
Look, all you fuckers stay up at night all the fucking time.
I don't.
I actually live a normal life.
Yeah, you have a normal life and a normal schedule.
I have to fucking take 16 energy drinks.
No, I stay up on the weekends.
I go to bed at like 9 PM during the weekdays.
Like weekdays, I'm like, oh, it's 9 PM.
Time to go to bed.
Yeah.

(02:15):
Like my cock.
Sometimes.
Sometimes, Nano keeps me up doing a collab stream for four hours even though I don't
want to.
Well, you know.
I am not a streamer.
He streams.
He's not a streamer.
I'm not a...
I stream occasionally.
I'm too explicit to be a streamer.
Whatever I do, I am very upset about streaming.
What?
Honestly, you know what I want to try and do?

(02:36):
Game streaming but on Pornhub.
No.
That would probably work.
You know, someone's probably done it before.
I'm pretty sure.
I don't know if it's a bit or if this actually happened.
It was at least a bit for a video where Scott the Was uploaded a video of himself eating
cereal to Pornhub but I don't know if he actually did or if he just said that he did.

(03:00):
Look if Belle and Delphine can literally caress a cock on stream on Pornhub, then I can too.
I think you're talking about a chicken but that would...
Oh my god.
Belle and Delphine actually did that.
She actually fucking did that.
Wait, she caressed a chicken instead?
Yeah, she was stroking a cock for 10 hours and it's just her holding a chicken.

(03:22):
She just had such a...
Oh my god.
Have you never seen that?
We're stealing ideas.
That is...
No, I...
I've not seen that.
I want to do that now.
I've not seen that.
Look, look.
I don't like...
Belle and Delphine was the biggest fucking troll that there ever was except for a few
others which we're going to be talking about today.
Listen, whenever it comes to real life women, I'm not that interested.

(03:43):
I'm interested in all the anime girls.
I like me some robo-hoes.
This is the thing that you keep saying whenever referring to the avatar that I worked on.
Thank you.
Yes, you're welcome.
I don't have...
I am here without...
Oh my god.
Just you doing that without the feet, just the straight legs, like you're a fucking...

(04:06):
I'm you, but better.
No, it's the peg legs, it's the pirate.
What are the guys with the laser eyes from Half Life 2, the husk kind of guys?
I forgot.
They have the stick legs.
I don't remember.
I forgot down my energy.
Strider.
No, the Strider are the super tall guys.
The super, super tall things.

(04:26):
That's a Strider.
There's another anime I'm thinking of.
I cannot think of the name of it for the life of me.
Until Nano regains their memory.
Yeah.
Do it now.
So...
Yeah, John sick parents house.
That's about it.
So we're doing this weird format.
It'll be fine.

(04:48):
This will be fine.
Yeah.
This may happen every now and then.
Yeah, every now and then.
This cardboard cutout was made very quickly.
It doesn't even sync correctly.
So for Gears, this cardboard cutout is not even here.
It's Jerma, isn't it?
They're insane.
It's not Jerma.
It's not Jerma.
You have this like...
I should have done Jerma.

(05:09):
You have this sexual desire for Jerma.
I should have done Jerma.
It would have been a really good idea.
You have Jerma for like everything.
Who's that Pokemon?
I mean, like everything.
It's just Jerma.
It's always Jerma.
It's always Jerma.
It's always Jerma.
Give me photos of Jerma on my desk now.
Now I'm going to go put a photo of Jerma over there on the shelf now.
If you don't shut up.
If you...
Dude, both don't shut up.
I'm going to put a picture over there.

(05:29):
There's going to be a day where it's just every photo.
You're supposed to be a Discord ping over there.
You have to put a picture of Jerma on the shelf now.
On top of several things for an April Fool's episode.
That's one of the things.
All the photos over there, Jerma.
Oh no, my sibling every single day when I wake up, they will send me the Sparklon image

(05:50):
every single day where Jerma's doing the fucking sleigh pose.
Oh my god.
Do you know my sister used to do to me every single morning or like whenever it was the
morning she was like, good morning, star child.
The earth says hello.
That's the thing that Willy Wonka says in the 2005 movie.
Yeah, I remember my shit.
I remember my shit.

(06:11):
Jesus, say that to me.
Your culture, Fulence.
Your culture.
How in the hell.
Well, I watched it a million times.
Who could have guessed?
Finally.
Nano finally like actually knows something that I fucking say out of nowhere.
Yeah, I've watched the movie a million times.
Who could have guessed?
Also, I got to say something about your hat.
Or just a movie thing in general.

(06:31):
What the fuck?
You just now notice the holes in it?
Why is there just a big ass...
The holes are for the ears.
You're gonna fucking rip out your ears.
Look, it's for the ears.
Audio listeners, love you to death.
In my top hat, there is a cut outs on the left and right side for my ears to come out.
Friendly reminder, again for the audio listeners, because I need to start saying this at the

(06:52):
start of the episode or something like that.
This is being recorded in VR chat.
So Gears and I are sitting on the couch next to each other even though we're like not in
the same state.
Correction.
Two thirds of this currently is being filmed in VR chat.
The one third is currently me laying on a bed.

(07:14):
Wait, what was the thing?
He said the thing.
Currently in VR chat, Gears is plowing me and I'm just dying.
No, no, no, that's not happening.
That's not happening.
Actually, you know what?
That is happening because that'll drive more people to the YouTube.
That is happening.
Get over here and see it.

(07:34):
This went from funny to demonetized.
I'm taking the ad film.
Take the ad film.
But because we're in VR chat, violence is always an option.
Didn't you pull out the revolver?
No I did not.
I was about to but he fucking clocked me instead before I even had a chance to.

(07:58):
So we've got a few things to talk about today.
John, do you want to take the floor for the first topic, the most recent one that was
brought up in the group chat?
Because I'm interested to hear about it.
So yesterday.
Oh, that topic.
Yeah, that topic.
So yesterday I leave my house.

(08:19):
So there's multiple layers to this story.
I leave my house to come here to my parents' house.
And I make a couple different stops in a couple of different places to be able to try and
get a few things.
I wanted to get like a couple different art supplies and stuff like a dollar on it and
a few other things.
And I was also looking for one piece cards.
I did not get either of those things.

(08:42):
As I'm driving around those different places and I'm starting to head over towards my parents'
direction, I get an email from I'm not going to specify what the email is just because
currently that's a very personal thing.
It's business related.
That's essentially all you really need to know.
It's a very business related email.

(09:05):
So I get this email and I kind of glance at it and I immediately notice like what it is.
It's like, oh, shoot, I can't respond to that until I either stop or I get to my parents'
house.
Shoot, I'm not going to be able to look at that because I'm driving.
So essentially I'm driving down the road and I think as I'm getting towards a highway,

(09:29):
I accidentally am speeding even though every other car around me is going the same damn
speed.
And I'm not even speeding by much.
And so I'm driving down and I see behind me that a cop is pulling me over and I'm like,
what is this?
And it's like, it's about what normally happens when you get pulled over is this.

(09:56):
You get pulled over, dude comes up and asks for your license and registration.
You give it to him and he takes it back, crunches whatever number is on his laptop and then
comes back and gives it back and maybe a ticket, maybe a warning, whatever.
That's about usually how it is.
This was a little different because he comes up and he doesn't ask me for license registration

(10:21):
immediately.
The first thing he asked me is if I have any weapons on me and I tell him no.
And I'm a little confused, but I don't really think much of it.
And I get, I already have my license out and I've also got my registration, like my insurance

(10:42):
and registration, so I don't fix anything, give him the registration.
And he's like, no, I don't need the registration.
I just need your license.
And I'm like, okay, that's weird.
He then asked me to get out of the vehicle and come with them to get into the passenger
side of his vehicle.
And I'm like, what?
I'm like, oh, okay, that's fine.

(11:04):
And as I'm getting out, I turn off my vehicle and I have in my hands are now my car keys
and my iPhone is in my right hand.
And I get out and he asked me again if I have any weapons on me.
The second time he asked me if I have any weapons on me and I say, no, I don't.

(11:26):
And it's like, huh.
Okay, so this is very, very strange.
It's just like a really strange moment of just like what is going on.
And I told this to my mom later and she's like, there's definitely something going on
around where you live to where it's like, because is if you is if anyone has seen what

(11:49):
I look like or how I dress in general, I wear a large brim hat and just not super like crazy
clothing.
Sometimes like a jacket, sometimes just like a hoodie or whatever.
It's not really like for context.
It's the half that's up in the logo, right?
It's that one.

(12:09):
Yeah, it's a hat that's in the logo.
It's a much more unique hat, definitely.
Yeah.
So but the car that I drive is a just a really old car.
Like it's a car that a grandmother would drive.
It's really old.
It's a little beat up and it's not in great condition, but it gets me places and it was

(12:30):
a hand me down from my grandma.
So she's like, okay.
So it's like my mom's like, you've been profiled for something because there must be like someone
that they're looking for that drives a similar car.
And it's kind of like that.
I'm like, they're probably worth it.
Where are they profiled before?

(12:51):
And she looks at me, she's like, they might have profiled you for a pimp.
And I'm like a dollar general pimp.
If that's the case, I'm going to I'm going to ask these few questions.
John, what exactly did the car they drive?
Huh?
It was just it was just a standard police car.
I mean, it's it was because I knew what kind of cars that like I don't remember exactly

(13:14):
what it is, but I definitely like remember what type because like it was a it was a local
one from where where I live.
So I definitely recognize that I knew that it was an actual anything wrong with the uniform
at all or just like something wrong with the interior.
Nope.
Everything was pretty much police.
No, because the tight like how they pulled like how they pulled you over and everything.

(13:37):
It just seems like it's just it's one of the the guys who fucking fake being a police
officer and trying to get cash out of you.
I saw I saw a thing like that recently somewhere in Europe where there was a guy trying to
go he was going around with like a credit card scanner and like trying to find people
for like I don't even remember what the stupid reason was.

(14:00):
It was like something really dumb.
It was it must have been something like littering or something like that.
And he was trying to go around and like get like the fucking credit card scanner that
you'd see like in a grocery store.
Right.
He was walking around with that.
He was so dumb.
What the fuck?
I don't know.
Would you like to make a purchase?
Continue your story.
It just reminded me of that.

(14:22):
I mean, it was just kind of like one of those deals first like.
So I go over and I get in and if you're in the Patrick's theater of cup car, it is
very, very small space.
It is really small.
It's like you are packed in there.
It is small.
There's a laptop carrier right in front of you.
You're squeezing into the.
Yeah, it's just right over it.
Like I'm sitting in here.
It's just like right over my left leg right here.

(14:44):
And it's that doesn't make any sense when when you are being placed into a cop car for
any reason, even on handcuff, just to sit there, even just to sit there, to have a place
to sit.
It's always the back seat.
Yeah, it's always the back seat.
Yeah, I don't.
I don't know what was going on.
I just sat right there.
He put in the information.

(15:04):
I mean, like if you look at my build, anyone can take me.
So I don't think he was particularly threatened by the by the dollar general pimp.
So yeah, yeah.
He had also asked me if I had ever been in trouble for which I which I like I had gotten
pulled over speeding or whatever like that.
But that's about the extent I've not really been in, like any major crime or anything

(15:27):
like that.
He's a good boy.
Yeah.
So it was just a weird set of questions and stuff that was being asked.
So I'm sitting in there.
And like I said, I still have my I still have my car keys, my wallet and my phone in my
hand.
I didn't put them in my pockets because if he's going to ask me twice, if I have weapons,
I'm not going I'm not putting my hands anywhere near my pockets.

(15:48):
That's just not going to happen.
So I'm sitting there and I'm I'm holding all these things that are like I have that business
email that I got earlier.
I'm going to respond to that.
That's a good you know, that's that's yeah, sure.
I'm not better.
The officer what the hell are you doing?

(16:08):
I'm just responding to a business email.
Don't worry.
Do you have a problem with that?
Because he didn't say anything about like don't use your phone.
He didn't give a shit.
Okay.
At that point, that might be officers just been like he's either a recruit or like just
new or he's been in the system for a long time.
He just doesn't give a shit anymore.
He would ask several times if you have weapons, but he wouldn't like tell you to stop using

(16:29):
your phone, which is like it seems a little weird to me that there would be one without
the other.
Yeah.
Like, okay, you'd probably want someone to like you to not be in contact with anyone
while he's like running your shit to make sure you're not a wanted criminal from a gang
of people who you can speed tile and be like, hey, come help me out or something.

(16:50):
Like no.
Running gun operation.
I don't know.
None of this makes any sense.
It was very blatant what I was doing.
I just flipped over to my emails.
I just flipped over my own phone, flipped over to my emails and then just went haywire
on it.
So I was just like, eh, whatever.
So I don't know.
Jesus, John.
Getting racially profiled.
Like I said, I guess he thought that I was, my mom thinks that like it was like some formula

(17:19):
like, cause like there's some different like not like major crimes, but like, like different
smaller crimes and stuff that occasionally happens where I live.
And so then it's like maybe like they were looking for someone and they thought that
I was potentially that person.
And they pulled me out cause he let me off with a warning.
I thought I was going to get a ticket, but he let me off with a warning.

(17:40):
I was like, okay.
So I don't know.
Damn.
I don't know.
Weird all around.
Yeah, definitely.
Definitely.
Extremely.
Don't make sense.
Like police interactions because yeah, no, that's, that's several of those things just

(18:05):
don't make any sense.
Like especially for me, asking for weapons several times.
That's weird for me though.
The thing that's even more weird beyond that is the just whole like no registration.
More so the sitting you in the front seat.
That also, yeah.
The no registration also was like, what the fuck?
Yeah.
They never say you're in the front seat though.

(18:25):
Like they'll, they'll leave the door open and have you unhandcuffed and just have you
like sitting in the back seat with like even your legs just like out, like hanging out
the door and stuff, like just sideways on the seat and everything.
Um, well like, I don't know.
Yeah.
It's either gotta be a like new recruit or someone who's just doesn't give a fuck anymore.
Right?

(18:46):
Like, you know what, you know what would be extremely hilarious is if somehow he like
recognized like my name is Sir from like VRChat stuff.
Cause I, he recognized the hat.
He knew the hat.
And it either recognized the hat or like recognized my name through like someone else's video
or something which is like, oh shit, he plays VR chat.
As if I put him in a half ghost, he might come.
So he, this might not be something.

(19:08):
He might come aggressively.
There's a reason now why this podcast is labeled as explicit.
This went from funny to demonetized.
No, I, um, well I was, uh, since the first episode, I've actually been, uh, making sure
that we're all good to go for when the episodes come out because this is only the second episode.

(19:30):
The first episode has not come out yet.
And we also plan to record another one or two, uh, on the following, uh, like next week.
And then like we'll start releasing them as the episodes are quite a few weeks behind.
And so I've got a job and just like other responsibilities.
And I would like us to be a few episodes ahead so that if we ever need to take a week off,

(19:51):
then it's okay to do so.
And so I was working on all of the, uh, like seeing, okay, how do you get a podcast to
go up on like these other websites like Spotify and like Apple podcasts and all that kind
of stuff.
So really cool website.
I think I'll stick with them as rss.com because they just do it all.
Like they do all the websites with like one upload, which is pretty cool.

(20:13):
I didn't even know there was a thing.
Um, and I had the option to choose if it was explicit or not.
And I said, yeah, I probably need to check this.
Not only is there a lot of swearing, but there's definitely a lot of other interesting things
like you just mentioned with the, with the handcuffs.
Um, and it was pure.
I am not.
Oh, you are.
You are so, so wrong.

(20:34):
So, so this is why I'm shaking my head.
No, you see me.
You see me shaking my head.
Can't be shaking your head.
No, it's a podcast.
They can't see that.
Exactly.
Audio listeners love you to death.
He's shaking his head.
No anyways, anytime I say that there's going to be an image that appears right here.
Audio listeners data was currently pantsless.

(20:57):
You've got tights.
I want to go watch the podcast on YouTube to see whether or not I actually am.
See well, Gears is having a clue.
Am I telling a lie?
Well, well, well, well, John, I don't have clothes.
Oh yeah.
You don't cause you're using the, uh, rune avi.
This is, um, this is a, what was it?

(21:19):
It was a different one though.
It's not the rune exactly.
It's the rune.
It's rune.
It's rune.
R-A-N-U, which is like, uh, it's made by the same person, but it's got like a lot of,
uh, key differences with the mesh.
It's an industrial model.
Yeah.
Something like that.
Oh.
That's why there's no legs.
I mean, that's why there's no feet.
Cause you don't need feet.
You just have peg legs.
I'm, I'm a peg leg.
I'm a pirate.
You're hard.

(21:40):
Damn you.
You beat me to it.
Being a pirate is all right with me.
Wait a minute.
Is that copyrighted?
No, I don't think so.
Being a pirate is all right with me.
Do what you must cause a pirate is free.
You are a pirate.
You're hard.
Diggy, dee, dee.
Okay.
I'm pretty sure it's a little dee dee.
I'm not sure I can take this any further to say that, like, you're a, uh, you're a, you're
a, you're a steampunk, uh, pirate.
That's what, that's where I was going to go with it.

(22:03):
Extremely futuristic.
Yeah.
I have jelly in my belly.
Yeah, there's this, like, really cool transparency effect in the belly area.
For, for the audio listeners, uh, I love you to death, but, uh, you can't see this shit,
so, uh, let me just show.
Oh yeah, look at that tummy.
It's really nice looking.

(22:23):
Um, this, my stomach is jello.
Oh yeah, my stomach is flinching really well.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
He's got the really nice thing of some VR chat avatars don't have correct proportions.
For example, a lot of them suffer from the thing known as anime leg syndrome, where the
legs are a lot longer than your typical human proportions, which causes it to be really
annoying to use in full body, because where your foot is will line up with where the avatar's

(22:46):
knee is and it will be like you're walking on stilts.
So shitty.
I fucking hate it.
The last time an avatar actually fit me correctly was a Roxy animatronic avatar from Five Nights
at Freddy's Security Break.
They were telling us to see you.
And it fit me perfectly.
Yeah.
And secondarily, I have one topic to talk about.
So does everyone remember the solar eclipse that happened recently?

(23:06):
I didn't see it because I was asleep, but I got to actually view it and it was such
a weird experience.
It was going right over one of the areas that are on it.
And at the place I was at, there's an Apple store and they, I got to sign up for a free
demo of the Apple vision pro.

(23:27):
Okay.
Pretty cool.
Let me tell you, it is one of the weirdest experiences I ever had.
I can definitely see it as being a desktop workspace environment type of system.
It helps a lot with that.
It integrates itself within the Mac devices.
So if you're able to do desk work on emails and shit like that, it helps with that very

(23:48):
easily because you can have your Mac set up already, plus also have your own windows set
up with inspirational art pieces or some shit like that and do your other stuff on your
phone.
And then your messages up on it.
It's really cool.
The guy was trying to sell me on it.
I'm just like, no, I'm not spending $4,000 on this one thing.
But you know, yeah, I have, I have so home, but it was actually play games on like the

(24:12):
vision pro stupid fucking fruit.
Ninja that barely functions like playing games on that thing is so bad.
It's not a gaming headset.
Actually, actually, I think there's one where some games, no, no, no, with some games it's
really fun because it doesn't have controllers and uses the eyes as your, as your controller
and your hands.
So the guy was like, I'm going to have to like get you up on the constant.

(24:34):
I'm like, dude, I already know this shit.
I love VR.
It's one of my favorite fucking things.
I have a VR headset at home.
I have three.
I used to have three of them.
I only now have two of them.
I've had some from 2019 to 2016 to up to the quest three recently, the fucking spatial
computing on that thing is awesome.
I love that thing because you can use your, you can just use your hands and said, that's

(24:57):
so fucking cool.
So he's like, so you have to do this and this.
And I'm just like, dude, just, just, just show me what the fuck I'm trying to click
onto not telling me how to use it.
So most of the people going into an Apple store are typically not the people who own
a VR headset.
Yeah.
So I actually got it.
But the thing is that that dude was really into VR.
I could definitely tell cause he was like, he actually knew things like way above that

(25:20):
would be a list of talking.
So things he just had to say like that, like he would literally get in trouble for if he
didn't say, no, it wasn't.
It was like, he knew about like the steam Deckard and shit.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Like he knew, he knew further into the information on VR.
No, no, no.
I mean like him trying to explain to you how to use it.
I'm saying like, he was probably going to get in trouble if he didn't say that to you,

(25:41):
no matter how I was just like speed through it as fast as you can.
I don't care.
And so I'm just like clicking around.
I know I have this script.
Yeah.
It works off your eyes.
So you actually get to look around.
So you're like, okay, let me look at that and then click.
You just, you don't put it up in front of you and then do that.
No, you, you just leave your hands down here and you just go click, click, click, click,

(26:02):
click, click, click.
It's a little different from the, uh, from the way that you use a finger inputs on the
quest because with that you have to point and click with your fingers, but you can,
you still can and it's pretty nice, but with the, with the Apple vision pro you, wherever
you are looking precisely with your eyeballs, like wherever your main focus point is, is

(26:23):
the cursor.
So you have to get used to that because, um, I saw a lot of people needed to get used to
that for a couple of hours because they were instinctually kind of used to the way the
quest does it where you have to kind of point your finger, uh, your finger where you want
to and then click.
No, you just, you do click with your fingers still, but you point with your eyes.
I guess that takes getting used to.
And I was like, yo, these use pancake lenses and he's like, yeah, you're right.

(26:44):
How the fuck, what the fuck?
I'm just like, yeah, no, don't worry.
No, he was like the pixel density and the eyes are really amazing.
I'm like, they're about the same as the quest.
So I think, no, it's a lot higher.
No pixel density is 4k.
They're both 4k displays.
Maybe the quest three and not the quest two.
I don't know.
I haven't actually, the quest three is a 4k display on both eyes.

(27:06):
Same with the, um, the Oculus or not the Oculus, the vision bro.
I still have not had a chance to try pancake lenses.
I really want to.
The only heads up to the fucking awesome, you know, only for now.
Lenses.
Yeah.
I know that for now lenses, of course, that little ring that you have, the little ring
that's around your eyes.
Yeah.
Pancake lenses.
Yeah.
You don't see that like barely.

(27:27):
It's awesome.
I, the only headsets in my house is the index that I'm using the HTC Vive.
That's not really functioning correctly.
That's in a box over here.
And then my siblings got the quest to yeah.
Bye.
She see by brothers.
So there's a quest to my house, but that one's still using the for now lenses.
Um, I just haven't seen like anybody talk about the quest three, despite the fact that

(27:50):
I guess it's, I guess it sold pretty well.
Um, and you know, it's definitely a way nicer headset, but it just doesn't have, it didn't
have as much of a, uh, so the thing is, the thing is, is that the quest three is a great
headset until you just talk about Facebook.

(28:10):
That's it's main oof point.
Let's take all the Facebook out of it.
Even then like, okay, the marketplace there isn't bad.
You can still side load apps.
It's not locked down like an Apple device would be where you can still side load stuff
that's not on the same link is also on as well.
Which means now you have your entire thing, which actually does really easily.
It's just virtual desktop, but less fiddling around with settings.

(28:33):
Cause we've already had the ability to use a quest wirelessly with a PC.
But then now steam has their own software for it, which is nicer.
And I also hate how fucking meta did not try to make their own, um, like software for,
you know, getting a linkage between your Oculus and your computer.
They don't really have a huge interest in because they want you to, they want you to
buy the games on their store because they get money.

(28:56):
Okay.
So here's the thing.
Whenever you want to link it, do you want to know what you use?
Rift.
Yeah.
The old rift software, the old rift software, they haven't even changed the logo on it to
be meta.
It's just rift.
Yeah.
It's a little silly, but no, like steaming came by and was like, here, have like an easy

(29:17):
access to your steam software.
And you can also, if you have base stations, you can then now use all your fucking normal
equipment in line with your, with your headset tracking on a wireless headset, which is awesome
because I guess, um, the wireless kit that was being made for the index by a third party

(29:37):
company, I don't remember the name of them.
Um, no, no, no, no.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, no.
I guess the, it released it and some people were getting their hands on it and some people
still had a lot of their stuff delayed.
Um, and I guess it's just not good.
And people are actually trying to get like refunds on their orders that haven't shipped
yet because it's not good, which is a shame because the index is a really nice headset.

(29:59):
And the fact that like they tried, um, some people tried to get old though.
I know, but still people tried to get a wireless, um, situation worked out and it's just not
good.
It finally came out and it's not good.
And that makes me sad.
Um, so for anyone wanting to buy a headset within the next few years, please do wait
because new stuff does come out every single year.

(30:19):
But if you're needing one, like now, now I would actually suggest the quest three.
I'd suggest either the quest three, if you want a good headset, that's going to last
you a while, that's really fucking durable and that has wireless and PC VR capability.
Um, yeah.
You will have to get attachments and accessories for it to work.

(30:41):
If you don't have a computer quest three hands down, especially.
So I bought, there's, there's another one in this picture here for the people who have
a lot of money.
Um, I used to recommend the valve index, uh, cause it's a thousand bucks for the full
kit of headset, two controllers and two base stations.
But now there's a much better option for people who have the money to spend right now.

(31:02):
Um, big screen beyond a plus index controllers and base stations.
So you get the index controls, base station, everything like that.
And also the big screen beyond because of it being such a, I want everyone who doesn't
know.
And we need to do an episode on it when I'm using it because I do plan to buy one with
the next couple of months.
Like I've actually decided on it that I will be doing so it is a very tiny headset.

(31:25):
Like imagine the valve index, but like four times smaller.
It's like a quarter of a size.
For everyone who doesn't know what big screen beyonds headset is, it is a small form form
factor fit.
They actually ask you to laser scan your face with your phone if you have an iPhone, but
there's some other ways they do it as well.
And they will make a foam cutout of your face for you and also ask you what your, what your

(31:49):
prescription is if you have glasses and actually make an install lens inserts into your headset
for you.
There is a downside with this because if you, no one can share it.
You can't share it.
Well, not exactly.
So you can, you can kind of share the headset and it will kind of fit other people's faces,

(32:09):
but not perfectly because it fits yours perfectly.
Additionally, you can get different foam inserts for other people's faces if they also did
their face scans.
But one thing that you can't change still is the lens distance, the IPD of how wide
apart is from your eyes.
So even if somebody put on the foam insert for themselves, then the IPD is still screwed

(32:31):
up.
So it's going to be like either blurry on the far like edges or blurry on the close
edges of the lenses.
It's like very much so a thousand dollars for you and no one else can really use it.
John, your input on VR.
There's the other thing on the big screen beyond because I do want to at least acknowledge
this because it's like, Oh, this is the greatest thing.

(32:53):
This is what we recommend.
I do want to make sure that people know that is a thousand dollars just for the headset
that doesn't include controllers or any of that's why I'm just recommending this.
If you've got the money to blow right now, the money.
Oh, there's also the pay, the pay, whatever it's called.
What I in re in reality for me, I'm going to recommend the index first before I recommend

(33:15):
the big screen.
I like after the index is if you really like it and you're really going to be art, then
I would recommend the big screen beyond but I drink because thousand dollars you get the
index, the controllers and two base stations for a thousand.
It is a very nice deal with because the is if you're just going to go straight into is
if you're going to go straight into big string beyond route, that's a thousand dollars plus

(33:38):
a controller.
So as if you're going to be getting the index controllers, that's going to be about $280
and then for base stations, that's $120.
You're going to at least need two.
So that's going to be 240 in total.
So now you're going to be looking at about 50 to $1600 should be 1500 on the dot.
I'm pretty sure minus minus shipping costs or taxes.

(34:00):
So it'll probably work out to 1600 and this is the thing.
You do a big screen beyond if you have money to blow money.
If you got a lot of cash, the index is a really nice option.
Also their warranty is extremely nice.
And I've known Nano, how many, how many fucking hands have you gone through?
This is my third pair.

(34:21):
And how much did you pay for all that?
Um, I, so there's the one year warranty in the U S. Um, so I was able to get one warranty
replacements to get to the second set.
The third set was well out of warranty, so I did actually have to buy these.
Um, they have a one year warranty.
They will replace anything as long as it's in that warranty, including it.
Let's say your headset connection breaks or something like that.

(34:43):
They will just give you a fucking new headset and sometimes a new cord for someone like
that.
If it's something like reports of people getting a new cable, um, outside of their warranty
because the cable is, um, not perfect.
So that's nice.
I have not had any problems with it.
Yeah, I haven't either, but some people, depending on the, what, what they do, just if it gets
twisted one bad way, one time, you're completely screwed.

(35:05):
It's not the only one I've had problems with is the fucking, um, the cable clips, those
things that hold the cable on your head.
And snapped off immediately.
I had to replace it with, you know, those Velcro, um, little things that people give
you whenever you buy a new cord.
Yeah.
So you can do, I literally wrap around once on the, on the cord and then wrap it around
my headset to keep it all like nice.

(35:27):
And so I have this one little Velcro strip on my head and it hurts sometimes to take
off, but Hey, I got, I got it.
It took me about four years to go through a cable.
I had my index for about four years until my cable went bad and then I had to replace
it.
Which is pretty good.
The index is four or five.
No, it's $500 for just the headset.

(35:48):
No, no, four or five years old.
Oh, so it is, it is old.
It doesn't have the best.
It doesn't have the best on like the, the, the quality of the lenses.
It still has for now lenses.
It still has its own little problems.
And this is only because it is an old headset.
Do remember and yeah, you're still getting a brand new and like, don't they actually

(36:09):
like pre-make these before they ship them out?
Like people like have their orders and then they go through and then they ship it out
or is it like all already just made?
I'm pretty sure they have them all made already.
I think they have them all made because it's a manufacturing thing.
To my knowledge, the only two heads of companies that are, yeah, the only two companies is

(36:33):
Big Stream Beyond and Apple vision pro.
They do also do some face fitting.
They don't do nearly as much as big screen, but they do some face fitting.
They still have you scan your face.
It's funny with the vision pro, you have to, they also do something with the, with the
foam width, but I think they only have just a couple options they choose from.
They don't do big screen where they have, you know, the full like precise.

(36:55):
I've been, I've seen it on some reviews, I think.
Okay.
Okay.
The guy didn't tell me anything about that.
He told me it's literally custom as the big screen because I was told to bring my glasses.
They literally told me to bring my glasses and because they were going to literally,
they ha they made it.
This is the thing.
Apple made a device to literally you stick your lens in there and then it measures it

(37:18):
and finds out exactly what your fucking your, um, your prescription is just from that.
They have, they made a literal device just to do that so that they could fucking put
it in, scan it and fucking make your eye and put in a lens insert that is that prescription
and fucking let you use it.
And then it does all the adjustments afterwards based off of what your lenses are.

(37:43):
It's so fucking cool.
That was actually, it was also one of the only headsets that actually got me to have
phantom sense like immediately after wearing it.
That is crazy.
Yeah.
Like, so it changes, you know, like you've seen those reviews where it changes your skin,
like you're like the, the tone of your skin to, to the environment around you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That was so fucking weird.

(38:03):
Like, God, you can, and it slightly shows people around you in like a very, they're
low opacity.
So it's just, you can see, you can see them very, very slightly.
And the one of the cooler ghost, they're ghost ghost.
So one of the cooler parts was, is that the touch, the touching on it, the keyboard, that

(38:24):
was what got me.
I literally like poke the keyboard and all of a sudden just felt it go through my finger.
And I was like, ah, what the fuck?
And he's like, what?
And I was like, have you ever heard of phantom sense?
And he's like, yes, I just had it with the keyboard.
And he's like, oh Jesus.
That is interesting.

(38:45):
It being a headset dependent to, I wonder if anything similar will happen to me when
I get the big screen.
Cause it's like nicer, much higher resolution than the index.
I'm pretty sure.
It is.
It's much higher resolution.
I've always wanted to get those like 5k, 8k displays of big Pimax ones, but they're so
fucking heavy and so big.

(39:07):
Yeah.
Those things are absolutely massive.
They're like comically large.
Strap, Strap, concrete blocks on your face.
I know my friend Kronik at least had one for a while.
I don't know if he still uses it or not.
I assume he probably does.
I think he has a Pimax 5k and it's just really fucking wide.
They snapped their neck, I'm sorry.
It's so wide.
It's like your fucking hammerhead shark.
They went like this and just really fast and quickly abruptly stopped and just kept going.

(39:34):
If you whip your head, like that's one issue I have with every single VR headset other
than the big screen beyond because it's smaller and lighter.
The lighter and smaller a headset is, the less like, when you turn your head with a
big thing on your face, your head will turn perfectly, but like it'll then be jostled
back a bit due to the momentum that the headset has.
Cause that's kind of how physics work, you know?

(39:56):
So there are some new headsets coming out that have something, I don't remember exactly
what it's called.
I think it's like DPS or something like that.
Basically what it does, sorry, that's a different thing.
We don't talk about that thing.
So what it does, it actually changes the distance between the lens in the screen to equate for

(40:19):
somebody's vision.
Instead of having to get inserts, it just changes the distance so that it will focus
better into your eye.
Yeah, there's headsets out there that do that and so they're basically just allowing anyone
to use it and I can't wait for it because how much it costs me to get lens inserts,

(40:40):
cause I have lens inserts because if I don't, my glasses, my actual glasses in real life,
they get scratched, they get scratched to all living hell.
And I have to get lens inserts not every year but every few years.
My eyes haven't changed much and also I don't have to deal with extreme, like high quality

(41:02):
images in this game at all.
So that's great.
But it is such a bitch because it costs a hundred bucks just to get replacement lenses
every year if I were to do so.
Yeah, that's a bit much.
The worst part is the current ones I have are shit.

(41:23):
I hate them.
I fucking hate them because their focal point is not in the middle.
It's not.
If I put it in the middle, like if I put my headset down where it should be, like on my
nose bridge and everything, and where my eyebrows, it gets blurry.
It gets blurry as all hell.

(41:43):
If I look straight, I can't see, but if I look down, I can see pretty well.
So I have to have my, I have a bunch of gunk on the top of my lenses because they're touching
my eyebrows.
Oh my God.
I could not even imagine.
The focal point itself.
I could not imagine.
I could not wear this headset if it's like, I have to wear it slightly up or slightly

(42:04):
down.
It's got to be like straight on, which it's actually not right now, which is causing it
to be a bit blurry.
I'm wearing my headset, like they're on my cheekbones.
It hurts to have this on like for hours upon hours.
Haha, headset users right now.
Haha.
Shut up, you're sick.
You're laying in bed with this little blankie.
Does he got a little blankie?
You got a blankie.

(42:25):
He pulled up the blankie.
I got a little blankie because my shorts started riding up and I was showing too much ass.
So I just didn't want to show that much ass anymore.
No more ass.
We need the ass for the views.
Come on, Spike, come on.
I don't even know if they would have, I don't know if they would have even seen it in the
first place because I'll probably zoom into your face quite a bit.
Oh, don't do that.

(42:47):
So they can see you.
They can actually see you.
Otherwise, you're going to be like really small on the screen.
Hi.
Balls.
Oh, here, listeners.
He just walked up to me and said, my balls.
He scared me.
He's like, you're like standing there with your.
I am the milk man.
My milk is delicious.

(43:09):
Special delivery.
When you've got like your your upper arm is straight and then like your lower arm is pointing
straight down.
I don't know.
Like 90 degree belt, bent and elbows.
What am I saying?
I can't speak.
I know.
But I'm a mobile.
OK, I need to also clarify something else.

(43:30):
The setup that I've got now, stupid, because I've got OK, I know people are going to be
very upset because I've been holding the lapel bike.
I'm laying in a bed and it doesn't work well with T-shirts right now unless I'm just doing
something stupid.
So I'm holding a lapel bike.
So get over it.
Also, additionally, my laptop, which is currently recording everything and getting all the audio

(43:52):
in.
Actually, no, here's really how stupid it gets.
I have because my laptop is the MacBook and I plugged in my receiver into the MacBook,
didn't recognize the receiver.
I don't know why.
So I plug in the receiver into my iPhone, which then transmit the audio from there to
my laptop to record on OBS.
It is stupid.

(44:13):
Yeah, microphone to phone to laptop to us on Discord.
Yeah.
So which also the laptop is on the other side of the room, so I cannot see Nano or Hiroshita
now.
So I don't know what the hell they're doing.
Yes, if we do some kind of visual bit, he just won't be able to see it at all.
One or two of those has happened while Gears was just leaning over me to look at your cardboard

(44:38):
cut out over here.
You wouldn't be able to see the bit at all.
You wouldn't be able to.
No, he's blind.
He's fucking blind over there.
He's blind.
I've also just had my eyes closed most of the time anyway.
That's fine.
I'm talking another Advil.
At least you're here.
I'm glad that you were still good enough to do this because I totally would have called

(45:00):
this off until next week if you needed to.
It's four hours from now.
You can take another Advil.
You're right, doctor.
I'm taking the whole bottle.
So there was another topic that was a little bit recent that I kind of wanted to bring
up because it was silly Twitter things, right?
Silly Twitter things is a great way to start this.
I actually researched into this even further.

(45:21):
Into the dbrand thing?
Into the dbrand thing.
I actually found out.
So dbrand, what they did was they basically...
Can I start with this?
Yeah, go ahead.
Go ahead.
Start with what we know.
So initially, dbrand, because they are here, what they do is they make a lot of skins for
phones and other devices where it's pretty much a sticker that you can put onto the device.

(45:43):
It's pretty nice.
They're the ones who were stolen from by another Chinese company that Jerry Rigg everything
went out with them for and went after.
A lawsuit for the other company for stealing from dbrand.
That was that whole thing, right?
This is that company.
You've probably heard of them before.
They sponsor Linus Tech Tips a lot and they're pretty good.
And Mark says if you watch Linus Tech Tips, they use code short Linus, I believe.

(46:06):
I think something like that, yeah.
I think that's actually what their code is.
They do a lot of bullying back and forth.
And the same thing is they do a lot of bullying other people on the Twitter account because
they're one of those types of brand accounts that will go and actually roast people, even
people who are using their product, because that's just what they do.
And usually it's pretty funny.

(46:27):
And so somebody made a tweet complaining.
I don't have it in front of me because the quote tweet was deleted, but I'll get more
to that.
Let me, let me, well, yeah.
No, I actually, I, I actually have images and I specifically was researching this.
We have the data.
We got the data.
We have the evidence.
I was researching this because I was like, what does dbrand actually do?

(46:49):
Because I've never heard of them before this.
And I've considered getting some of their skins before.
They're really, some of them are really nice looking.
So there was, there was, there's several, this is why I'm going to be like, I'm going
to have way more information about this.
Explain the, the initial image.
What did the image look like?
The photo of someone it was, they were complaining about their dbrand skin getting dirty within

(47:12):
the first couple of weeks.
It was, it was for a, it was for an iMac.
Yeah.
Let me, let me find it.
Cause I, if I remember correctly, he can read it in a second, but if I remember correctly,
it was like really filthy, but that was because he himself didn't clean it.
So he was complaining to dbrand for it being dirty when like it was filthy.

(47:32):
I'm going to, I'm going to literally butcher the fucking shit out of his name.
Buhuan shit trance.
Yeah.
I don't know.
He basically texted at, at dbrand, bought the skin a couple months back, couldn't even
remain the same color after just two months.
What should I do?

(47:53):
Hashtag dbrand complaint.
And then dbrand fucking claps back and claps his cheeks real damn hard.
Fucking Jesus with, um, where is it?
I've got it in front of me right here.
You want me to read it?
Well, yeah, go ahead.
Read it.
Read it.
But yeah, go for it.
Um, your name, your last name is basically shit rash.

(48:15):
Be serious.
That's what it reads.
Yeah.
People did not like this.
People did not like this, but I've got my own opinions for this, but I'll get to that
once we actually, once we explain the whole thing.
So after that, actually dbrand, honestly, they're not a very malicious company when
it comes down to the roast.

(48:36):
If they actually, if you actually get offended, they're like, well shit, I'm actually really
sorry.
They roast people all the time.
So here's the thing.
You might think that just because they, you don't have, they, you can't see it anymore
because they deleted it, you might be thinking, well, they just sweep it underneath the rug.
No, literally Marcus Browning, I think is what his name is.
Marcus Brownlee.

(48:56):
I'm pretty sure.
Yeah.
He actually was like, I will stop sponsoring you if you fucking keep that up.
Well, he didn't say it exactly that paraphrase, paraphrase, but he said he tweeted it like,
I will not continue.
Yeah.
I will not continue sponsoring you if you keep this up.
And so they deleted the post because they want that sponsor.

(49:16):
And what they did was that they deleted it.
They texted, they texted the guy that was the, the person and they literally were like,
this is not fucking like hush money or anything like that.
We are actually extremely sorry.
Here's 10 grand.
Yeah.
They gave the guy a lot of money.
They gave him about 10 grand.

(49:37):
There's a little bit more between then and between the tweet and then it getting deleted
in the apology.
They were doubling down in a bunch of other quote tweets and a bunch of other replies
about like, I think one of them read something like someone was really upset about it and
they were like, okay, well then don't have a, don't have a look at our other tweets because
you're going to have a heart attack.
Oh yeah.

(49:58):
They were saying something like that.
They were like, you're going to clutch your mother's pearls or something like that.
They read something like that.
But that was actually before, that was, that was, that was before, but they were like,
you know, they're still trying to like get some, oh, where is it?
Where is it?
I need to find these posts.
Well, they also provided like actual like help as well in a, in a reply.

(50:20):
For the record, I want to set this record straight.
The reason that they were giving him shit as well, the reason they insulted him about
his name being shit rash.
Also, a lot of people said that was racially motivated.
Those people are deranged.
You are insane to think this is something about race.
This is a just typical deep rent insult.
Calm the fuck down.
Was it also like the hashtag like deep brand like thing that he did was like specifically

(50:45):
for like that was that?
I don't know if the hashtag was supposed.
I don't even have the in front of me.
I don't know if the hashtag is specifically for insult or not.
The reason they were giving him so much shit was because like it was his own fault that
he had not cleaned the device.
You also provided assistance.

(51:07):
They actually did reply with like, hey, here's some instructions on like some cleaning stuff
that do in order to make sure that it's properly clean and stuff.
It's like it wasn't, it wasn't that they were just insulting it.
They also gave assistance for it as well because I did see that.
Okay.
I did not see that one.

(51:27):
Well, that's pretty nice too.
But like I think it's crazy to tweet at a company that your thing is dirty that you
didn't clean.
Have they tried cleaning at first?
I don't know if they actually tried cleaning at first.
That's one thing I don't know at all is if they actually did try or if they just immediately
went to Twitter because a lot of people will just immediately go to Twitter.
I don't know.
No, because it's funny.

(51:49):
It's the same reason why people post a like slash or r slash insult me.
It's because you know, they're going to, you know, what's going to be funny.
Like it's, I love r slash insult me so much.
It's so funny, some of the different things it's like world-class comedians in there that

(52:10):
are just going in and just really putting people through the wringer.
It's so funny.
I found the pearl clutching thing.
Someone says in before the delete an apology tweet and then dbrand replies in before you
go through the rest of our feed and have a pearl clutching heart attack.
Yeah, that one was fucking hilarious.

(52:31):
I love that one.
So yeah, in the end, they, and this was like, this was I think two days afterwards, if I'm
correct.
But let's see.
No, it was one day later.
Well, first let me say the show the Marcus Brownlee tweet because he said won't be working
with dbrand until the original tweet is deleted.
At least you're allowed to make shitty jokes, but the internet has made it pretty clear

(52:53):
what they think about this one and the harm from it's unnecessary.
Do we even know if the guy was like personally offended?
Is this another, I think this might be another case online of everybody getting super offended
for someone that actually doesn't care.
Let me, let me, because that happens a lot.
I'd like confirmation on that because a lot of people will do that often where they get
super offended by something because they don't like it.

(53:15):
But the person who the person themselves who's supposed to be offended actually isn't.
You got this Gears.
You got this.
I'm checking right now.
It doesn't look like there's anything on it.
It's a fact checker is unsure.
Unsure, unsure.
I wouldn't, I would not be surprised if it's just people getting upset on behalf because
that happens a lot.

(53:36):
So that's, that's my default with, with Twitter specifically.
Remember this is Twitter.
It's a shit show over there.
We are well aware of this.
I don't browse Twitter anymore.
Like to get a lot of information because it's just a lot of rage bait and all the blue checks
are at the top of the replies constantly.
That's all it is.

(53:56):
So to any thing that has like a thousand replies to it, it's just all blue checks at the top.
I just see one word Jerry rig everything.
Dude just got $10,000.
That's almost enough for a supervised FSD beta.
You should be happy for him.
Yeah.
Someone named Nick light goes bald.
I will not be sending you 10K.
Your mom paid me 10K to be nice to you.

(54:17):
God damn it.
We'll just call it even.
It's what Jerry rigs.
Jesus Christ.
I love how he clapped back at that.
Jerry rig is such a cool guy.
Imagine insulting him for being bald.
Like he doesn't care.
He does not care that he's bald.
And then there's another quote from D brand where they go, well that escalated quickly.
Yeah.

(54:38):
One.
Yes.
We made a fun.
We made fun of a guy's name.
It was a huge fumble.
Two.
We apologized to him directly and offered him $10,000 as a gesture of goodwill.
Three.
We've been poking fun at customers on social media for over a decade now.
You're not going to stop, but maybe next time you'll be the one who gets 10,000.
So in the replies here immediately, someone says not D brand openly admitting to providing

(55:03):
hush money skull emoji.
It's still annoying to me that the immediate default is that this is hush money.
Cause again, it's just like, do you know anything about this company?
They wouldn't do that.
There's, there's one with a reply.
Pita.
Where is it?
Oh, you got to, you got to, there's a woman with a reply with Pita from back in 2021 where
Pita goes, we have news for you D brand.

(55:25):
No cows did not know cows did not want to die for your phone case.
And then D brand goes, who said they wanted to die?
I love people clapping back at Pita.
So for the hush money thing, for the hush money thing, they, they showed, I love the
shit of like just reading Pita through the dirt and different situations.

(55:47):
Oh yeah.
We love to drag Pita through the dirt.
It's always the classic, like going back to the people eating tasty animals.
Like it's so like people, people have obviously gotten way more creative over time with it.
It's so funny.
So D brand's response to the hush money comment was no hush money, no NDA, no strings attached.
And then they show a screenshot of the DM, which of course it's impossible to tell whether

(56:11):
or not this is the exact DM to be completely clear.
But it reads to clarify, this offer has no strings attached.
But is if they're saying, Hey, we're giving this guy money because it's just for the sake
of a kind gesture because we fucked up.
I don't think that's exactly, I don't, I don't think that's exactly hush hush.

(56:34):
I think that's like, they're not even being hush hush about it.
They're like, you can just be mad about everything.
That's what happens.
Goat seed.
They goat seed.
Uh, they said, you can continue hating us tweeting about the situation or even sharing
this DM wherever you see fit.
We just want to make amends for a lapse in judgment and the chaos that ensued in your
world.
I, so in the end, I'm honestly kind of disappointed that they deleted it and walked it back.

(57:02):
Um, like I think they could have, uh, and they didn't apologize to be clear.
This does not read to me as an, they apologize to him, but they didn't apologize to the internet
for it.
Um, they're like, yeah, we made fun of the guy's name.
I don't think making fun of a guy's name is a problem.
I don't, I don't think they are.
I don't think they honestly should fucking apologize to the goddamn internet because

(57:22):
at this point it's just like, I have very differing opinions from both of you about
being courteous and kind on the internet.
No, I literally just.
Since they're, they're a big account, I understand why they would apologize to him, but I don't,
I think it's perfectly acceptable to make fun of somebody's name.
If you're getting offended about somebody making a joke about your name on the internet,

(57:46):
just maybe don't be on the internet in general or don't have that name be there or like,
like it changes to something else or like there's this like three different options
here or just like suck it up.
Don't be a baby about it.
It's this three different options here.
Again, there's always the option that they weren't actually offended.
It's just the rest of the fucking internet doing so.
I saw a lot of replies saying that why would I care if a company is making fun of my name?

(58:08):
Like who cares?
Um, and then, and I see a bunch more comments still talking about, um, poking fun at customers
and being racist are two different things.
Seems like the going price of being racist is $10,000.
Just what?
I don't get it.
Honestly, it's like, it's like, it's like whenever you're a fucking kid and you start
making fun of someone's last name or their first name in general, you can't fucking control.

(58:33):
Yeah I guess you're racist now because their, their name is technically Hindu, but you know,
it just sounds really weird in English.
Yeah.
Oh dear.
But, sadly this just needs-
I think it's really stupid.
Here's what the rest of Marcus Brownlee's tweet said about the not going to be working
with them until the tweet's deleted.

(58:53):
I've been around to see a lot of versions of this in my years.
Apologies on the internet tend to come in pairs.
The first apology is usually rushed and later regretted.
The second after some time is usually measured and reflective.
I'm definitely not asking for a second apology, but I'm asking for the reflective part.
No, I don't agree with this.
This like, it's the internet, why are you, why do you care?

(59:15):
Why does it matter that much?
I mean be more careful with how you make the jokes.
Don't try to go for someone's name.
Especially just it being like-
I hate the fact that if you want to make a joke now you have to be, you have to put in
parentheses like I'm not being racist, I'm just making a joke about the fact that this
reads as the word shit.

(59:36):
Yeah.
We have to specify that now I guess.
Again why I don't have a social presence on the internet.
Also a little bit hypocritical coming from Marcus because not wanting to work with a
company for controversial tweets is interesting because he works with Tesla.
Has anyone ever read Elon's Twitter?

(59:58):
Has anyone ever read Elon's Twitter?
Elon's Twitter's fucked.
Just saying.
I'm not gonna give anything more on this about the moral implications or anything that Elon
has ever said.
I'm sure everybody else already knows but I'm not gonna delve into this because that's
a big shit show.
I think it's a little bit hypocritical to each their own.

(01:00:21):
I'm not gonna judge it.
I'm just pointing out a little bit of a food for thought type thing.
Whatever.
I think Linus did not have nearly as much of a reaction to this.
If I go to his Twitter which is sometimes hard for me to search up here.
Is Linus not from America?
He's in Canada.
Exactly.

(01:00:41):
But they still make big sponsors with dbrand.
But no I mean Canadians don't really get that offended.
Oh yeah that's true they really don't.
I've had some Canadian friends and honestly I've always heard really good things about
Canadians except about Quebec.
But that's almost always because I think one of the biggest things I've always heard from

(01:01:05):
every single Canadian I've met is Quebec hates Canada and Canada hates Quebec.
It's pretty much France at this point.
The French hate everyone.
The French hate pretty much everyone.
The French hate the French.
The French ruined France.
That's basically what I've heard.

(01:01:26):
I took that from Stampede.
What was Linus' response?
So his serious response was if your brand is being edgy occasionally you'll go over
the line dbrand will be okay wait till you hear about the companies that actually do
evil shit like Nestle.
Serious response continued dbrand stepped up and took decisive action to make it right
with the afflicted individual at this point unless he's mad I'm not mad.

(01:01:47):
Which is the correct opinion.
That is like the perfect.
If the guy is not mad why the fuck is anybody else mad?
Stop being mad.
And then Linus also responded to a comment here you can excuse casual racism really good
look for you Linus stole emoji.
Linus says I have no idea what color the guy's skin is and unless Twitter made accurate profile
pics mandatory neither did dbrand.

(01:02:09):
Anyone can marry into any name my sister in laws last name is I'm not even going to try
to pronounce that because I'm going to butcher it.
She's ethnic Chinese.
Anyone can marry into any name because I'm pretty sure it was the guy's last name.
And like yeah you don't know what the guy's race is.
No one probably got that from like his bio or something.

(01:02:31):
You think dbrand is going to go like read someone's entire accounts to see if what ethnicity
they are to see if it's acceptable by Twitter standards to make fun of his name like are
you being real.
I don't know.
It's just a lot.
I find this this whole thing is really funny.
No one's going to give a fuck in a week's time by the time this episode comes out I

(01:02:52):
assume probably already no one's going to give a fuck.
No one's going to care.
Fuck what the hell is this goddamn tweet because I am very strong about my political beliefs
whenever it comes down to certain situations.
I'm already concerned to be handled in calm in specific ways.
This is like a call to fucking like riot and kill people at this point.

(01:03:13):
It's not actually but Jesus fucking Christ it looks like it.
R.J. from R.J.
Tech commented on the picture going I fully expect you all to keep the same energy you
all did with the case to fi in this situation.
Boycott dbrand go after creators that are sponsored by dbrand call out creators for

(01:03:35):
not speaking against dbrands.
Stop supporting creators who continue to work with dbrand and continue to work with.
No here's the thing about it.
When it comes down to creators some creators like they will stay will have sponsorships
that are extremely like they go towards their their their types of creations.
But then some people are like raid shadow legends.

(01:03:57):
Some people go homeless without like these sponsorships like don't.
Yeah they have to have these sponsorships to be able to exist in life.
Yeah.
And it's just those things like you can.
It's like it's like a person's beliefs or like.
Harry Potter is a great fucking reference for this because Harry Potter in general as

(01:04:18):
an art or like as in like a medium or as in the books and just everything else.
Fucking awesome.
J.K.
Rowling on the other hand.
I have strong opinions about that woman and it is not good opinions.
But you can you can differentiate between the two people.

(01:04:41):
Unless they get money from and you support them technically.
But at least you're consuming the media that you like.
You can't.
If you're you're just an unhappy fuck if you don't do so.
Now if they've done atrocities that are not to be committed by any human at all then maybe
yeah but if they are certain like you need a mustache individual and why people always

(01:05:04):
draw the comparison of of this this fine incident that happened a long time ago and the art
that the guy made it's like that's a weird.
Oh the art looks like fucking.
Yeah.
OK.
Have you ever looked at his art because I have.
I have.
It's it's we were making jokes about it.
We're making.
Yeah we were making it because it looks like AI generated shit.

(01:05:27):
I don't think I need to say out loud who this certain unique mustache individual is who's
who's who's ever look at atrocities but you ever like tried if you ever like critiquing
art or like looking through it and trying to like if you're ever one of those people
and I already know how bad it is.
Yeah.
Well what I like to do a lot is to critique or just basically help people out and see

(01:05:47):
what I can like hey maybe your art doesn't have much depth you could try adding this
this and this and some people aren't exactly as positive about that outlook and I'm like
just at least help yourself or if you want to or don't like don't you don't even have
to follow me.
I'm just saying it.
Um this man needed to do a lot.

(01:06:07):
No wonder you got kicked out of art school.
No wonder.
For for anyone who is still under the impression of not knowing who it is they lived in Austria
for a little bit.
It's spicy.
It's supposed to be spicy.
God damn it.
And the blonde hair.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.

(01:06:31):
Anyways I've been very like invested in like doing impressions recently.
I don't know why.
Because I it's partially because I've been watching a lot of like Conan O'Brien like
Dana Carvey and a lot of them and something that uh that Dana Carvey did which was extremely
hilarious because the Obamas a while back had signed like a deal with Netflix to do

(01:06:55):
like some for a show or something.
I'm not sure.
I'd never heard of it until this.
But uh but Dana Carvey did a bit that was so funny of like Obama pitching show ideas
to to to those.
She's like all right now here's the here's the idea.

(01:07:18):
You got three guys at a bar and they're all three friends.
And uh there's there's it's a have our show and the show's called Here's to You.
It's like Obama.
I think that's cheers.
Oh fuck.
Michelle Michelle.
They don't like the idea.
Got another.
Oh yeah.
All right.

(01:07:39):
I got this one.
I got this one for you.
Mm hmm.
There there's about 14 ages and they've got a dog and they're going on going out and trying
to solve mysteries.
I think that's Scooby Doo.
Oh fuck.
Michelle.
They don't like the idea.
Give me another.
I see.

(01:08:00):
Leave leave leave the salad on the on the table.
I'll get to it whenever I'm done.
All right.
Just that and like other like different impressions that Dana Carvey does.
Oh Dana.
Dana Carvey is so funny.
There is so this isn't about impressions but it's more about YouTube shorts.
This is guy does YouTube shorts where he does an impression of a company like the entire

(01:08:23):
company and where he goes oh hi there.
So you used to work with this and they did like GE and other things like that and they're
like yeah we make rotating things that spray things at you because GE also makes the fucking
minigun on a 10 warthogs.
Yeah.
As well as washing machines.
General Electric.

(01:08:44):
Most of our stuff rotates.
That's a great resume.
If companies had to have a resume that's a nice one.
But one of them was there's an animal helping foundation that's extremely nice and they
actually do a lot of good in the world with like how they help animals and animal rights.
But what they used to do and how they were founded is extremely bad.

(01:09:10):
So what they did was that back and they started as a cult.
As most companies do.
They literally started as a cult.
As most companies do.
I believe Mythos Makers had our cult as well.
Yeah they started as two people and their logo they had this is hilarious because they

(01:09:32):
were going through it and they're like yeah and then we started up this cult and everything
and then here's our logo and then it looks like a swastika.
And he goes um hey that kind of looks like something else that we don't talk about and
he immediately switches into a German accent and goes what do you mean?

(01:10:01):
What do you mean?
And then they just continue on with it and then they're like well after all of our bad
shit that we used to do now we actually really help the community.
I don't remember who it was but he was being asked about like different movies because

(01:10:22):
there's like a lot of American movies.
There's my pole.
Whenever there's bad guys it's usually like Germans or Nazis.
And then the guy because the guy was German that was being interviewed and he was asked
what do like who plays the bad guys in German movies and he was like we play the bad guys.
We're very self aware.

(01:10:45):
Yeah oh yeah.
Not fun.
It was a little tough.
I wonder what goes I wonder if anything goes through people's minds whenever they have
to like be an actor for something that's really bad that's actually happened in the world.
Like it's a bit different when you have to be the villain in a fiction.

(01:11:06):
Okay whatever.
You have to be a villain.
Should we do it right?
There was a kid in a oh my god that unlocked another memory.
We have a me and another friend have a friend of ours that's German and he's really good

(01:11:29):
at games.
Like he's really really good at games.
We're always frustrated with him and at one point he was just like I don't know it's German
efficiency I don't know what else to tell you.
So you didn't mention the guy's also funny.

(01:11:50):
Oh no he's fucking hilarious.
But I wanted to go back to General Electric because I just couldn't get it out of my head
of just like we have washing machine and then war turret and you think about it a little
bit is if you do it properly you could definitely turn a washing machine into a turret if you

(01:12:14):
play your cards right.
Or wrong depending on what your intentions are.
I mean I could probably spend about two days.
Do you have a General Electric washing machine?
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
I'm just going to customize it.
You come over some day and you bring a massive fucking box of tools and like components and

(01:12:38):
like I'm here to quote unquote fix your washing machine.
You get like five AR15s and then get the motor out of the fucking washing machine and then
use the fucking machine.
No guys you're not thinking of the redneck ingenuity side of it.
All I really need, I just need two days, some duct tape, some super glue and a couple of

(01:13:02):
little metal balls and I'll have you a turret from a washing machine real fast.
Yeah redneck engineering.
You catch me as someone who would like really be able to pull something off like that.
And then we have the resident redneck engineer here in the podcast.
Yeah resident redneck engineer.
I mean look at the guy.

(01:13:25):
I was at an art school and we had just done like a deal to where we, I like a gloss paint.
I'm glad you got into art school.
You might have committed a genocide.
It's the guys with the blue hair and the blonde hair.

(01:13:46):
My sister didn't sadly.
Has she committed a genocide yet?
Not yet.
Not quite yet.
I'm getting there.
I like how we all went yet.
I had like a little glass paint deal with some Pionix.
So it was like paint roller stuff.
Partially joking.
I was like doing some paint roller stuff with like a glass paint and stuff and it was like

(01:14:11):
pretty much the end of the class.
And so I picked up the glass paint, went over to the sink to clean it off and I had accidentally
dropped it and the way that I dropped it is I had dropped it and it slid between like
between these two fingers here and like caught up my finger like fingers on both sides.

(01:14:34):
So that's not the sound that you make when you get a cut.
A glass cut.
Oh sorry.
Yeah that's better.
Continue.
I actually do have another injury story from art school but I had gotten all those cuts
and stuff and I looked at it and being the redneck individual I am I was like oh that's

(01:14:54):
a problem.
I just turned off the water, put the glass paint over, I walked out because there was
a first aid kit just like just outside.
I went over, I looked in the first aid kit, there's no band aids so I was like okay there's
no band aids.
So I just grabbed some painter's tape and some paper towels and just wrapped my fingers

(01:15:15):
and paper towels really terribly and just painter's tape them together pretty much and
that was just how I bandaged myself and one of my friends she saw it and she looked at
my hand and was just like she was pissed and she just grabbed me by the arm, drug me to
her dorm room and actually bandaged me up and told me do not do that again.

(01:15:37):
I had to do that to a co-worker once.
They got cut and I'm not going to say where I work because if I do there's going to be
a problem.
Talk to yourself, talk to yourself, talk to yourself.
Don't talk to yourself.
No the company I work for literally is only in one state.
Yeah don't say that.
General Electric.

(01:15:59):
General Electric let's go with that.
So our first aid kits don't exactly exist.
Well they're really shit.
They're like Uline med kits and they don't have much in them when it comes to actual
good stuff.
So a friend got a really big cut on their fucking hand.
They had to abandon some latex gloves, a couple little wooded things.
Yeah they didn't even have gauze pads.

(01:16:22):
Nothing.
I literally had to grab my first aid kit in my car.
These are so freaking.
Yeah I had to grab my first aid kit out of my car that had gloves in it still, put on
my gloves and start working on his hand and I literally just gauzed it up and put it all
together and put a glove on his hand and went you're good to continue working.

(01:16:43):
Good luck.
We'll check back eventually and see how this held up.
And because of how small the company is, there's a lot of problems when it comes down to it.
They don't follow.
Actually that's the reasoning why our personal service called OSHA.
Well yeah where are you selling your damn kits at?
Wish?
Are these like the Wish.com first aid kits?

(01:17:06):
What the hell are you doing?
There's a reason why our friend group, the discord server is called OSHA.
It's cause of my company.
Yeah partially.
I'm pretty sure partially and then also.
I forgot about that.
I don't think it's the full reason but at least partially yeah.
It's a pretty big reason for it.
Cause literally we talked about my fucking company a couple days before it fucking got

(01:17:29):
renamed and we're all like yeah that's um I don't know why you're still working there
and I'm just like.
Money food on table.
Money food on table and they actually pay me good.
They pay me real good.
Listen I know it's dangerous to build a minigun but General Electric pays a lot.
Exactly.
Audio listeners, when Gears was doing the silly voice he was wiggling his legs, his

(01:17:52):
stubby legs.
I was stubby.
You little bottom bitch.
You little bottom bitch.
No he's not.
I am a bottom bitch.
You said you were going to save the voice for a few episodes from now.
Well there it is.
That isn't the voice.
No it's close.
That's close.
It's not even close.
Edit it out.
Edit it out.
No it isn't.
It's different.
I put a more deeper tone in it because more women actually have a slight deep tone in

(01:18:17):
their voice when they talk.
It's very subtle but it's there.
But if you go up all the way you're going to sound like a little baby.
Aunt Bethel is like half an octave away from just sounding like a man.
I'm just saying.
I'm a man.
Let's go.
Voice actors and their range.

(01:18:38):
Here's the thing about Aunt Bethel.
She can cook really damn good and she knows how to whip someone's ass.
One of the things that got me more into voice acting was this guy that I met.
We were in a Hasbin Hotel world by the way.
I did my voices in front of them and they went, your vocal range is fucking fantastic.

(01:18:59):
What do you do for a living?
And I'm just like nothing.
And they're like have you ever thought about becoming a voice actor?
And I'm just like I would love to but I don't know how to.
And they're like well.
And it's stayed like that ever since until I eventually gave it.
Here's where you work at.
Uh well I'm a VA for General Electric.
Yeah I'm a VA for General Electric.
General Electric.

(01:19:19):
Next time I'll build you.
I'll build your washing machine.
We've had many references to General Electric and about three references to Hitler.
I think we're rockin' it.
General Electric, my balls are on fire.
I don't think that's supposed.
Shhh.
Okay.
That's fine.
Get your hand out of my face.
That's the tingling that you get whenever you look at a really pretty girl.

(01:19:44):
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about it sweetheart.
Shut the fuck up.
Shut the dumb ass up.
Here's the creepy uncle.
Don't worry about it sweetheart.
No.
No.
Oh lord I still do kind of have the scarf of the other injury that I had in art school.
What is this other one?
I was.

(01:20:04):
What the fuck is your art school?
It's not that they were doing things.
It's just things happened to me.
I got shot in the leg one day in art school.
You don't want to go to boot camp at art school.
No.
It's fucking.
Let me.
Let me.
Let me say.
Like I.
It isn't just an art school.

(01:20:26):
It's just the stupidity that I can get up to.
I had like.
I had at one point like got distracted and fell off of a forlorn where I just scraped
my knee really badly.
I was probably like a ways out from my house whenever this happened.
And I just got back up, brushed myself off, saw that I was bleeding really badly.
Was like oh crap.

(01:20:47):
Okay.
Drove back to the house.
You're also the type of guy where you'd stab him and he'd probably just.
You'd just like.
Yeah.
You'd walk it off.
I mean I just.
I just.
I just.
I just.
I just walked in.
I just walked in.
There's like blood all the way down my leg.
And my mom was like what did you do?
And I was like I fell off the four wheeler.

(01:21:07):
Can I have a bottle of water?
I'm about to pass out from all this blood loss.
Yeah.
I did something very similar but not exactly to the point of like passing out from blood
loss.
So I was just one day sharpening my machete as 14 year old me would just do.

(01:21:27):
And I was like I want to play COD.
With Black Ops 2 by the way by that time.
And I then slipped off the fucking sharpener and slit my finger like open.
It almost hit a main artery on my middle.
And I literally went oh.
Grabs it and puts pressure down with my hand and then runs downstairs to go grab gauze.

(01:21:49):
Gauze bleeds through it.
Makes my black jeans look red.
Walk up.
I have a towel around my hand now.
Walks up to my parents room.
Opens the door.
The lights are off and they're sitting in bed.
And they're like what do you want?
And I'm just like waddles over to the.
I literally.
For all the viewers.
For all the visual people you're going to see what I do.

(01:22:11):
For all the audio people.
I basically had my hand.
I was grabbing my middle finger.
My elbows are a little bit bent.
And I waddled over like this.
Yeah, nanom describe please.
He's waddling like to like to his right.
Just like small steps to the right.
Yeah he waddled over and then flicked it.
Flicked the light switch with my fucking arm and went to the hospital.

(01:22:32):
I literally went to the hospital.
I need to go.
And they looked and then my dad got up and was like what the fuck.
And I'm just like.
As the lights flip.
As you flip on the lights you're like to the hospital.
As you're drenched in blood because your.
I'm literally like my hands were drenched in blood and I'm like I need to go to the

(01:22:53):
hospital really badly.
My dad's like we can just wait till tomorrow.
My mom's like take him to the fucking hospital now.
Yeah no that's.
I had an undergrad teacher that had something very similar.
Like that happened.
He was on a four wheeler and he was like he was going somewhere and he had a bow and
arrow and a whole bunch of arrows on the back of it.

(01:23:13):
One of the arrows had like fallen off.
Got into the tire and then like had flipped back around and then went into the back of
his leg.
Oh.
And so he got over.
He basically just got into the house and his wife was just like oh my gosh we have to take
you to hospital.
He just pretty much said just super glue it.

(01:23:36):
Actually super glue was originally used as liquid band-aid.
Who am I the only person who has not injured themselves.
Like the worst injury I probably.
I can't even think of it.
But there's there's there's more to the story.
I think I like sprained my my foot once really badly for a couple of days.
So that that slit that I had I went to the hospital for it and they were like yeah you
have to get like five stitches and I'm just like OK.

(01:23:56):
So they stick the four needles into my.
This is how fucking fast my metabolism was back in the day.
They stick four needles into me putting in like the lead OK and so the fucking numbs
my finger and they're like OK we're going to come back in 30 minutes and it should be
fully set in so you shouldn't feel anything.
Yeah 30 minutes past they start sewing and I'm like.
I am damn screaming because I can feel everything and they're like oh Jesus they're looking

(01:24:20):
at me like what the fuck.
So they put four more shots in me and then come back in 15 minutes and then they start
sewing and I'm like I'm still like I'm still feeling it but like slightly.
So it finally set in partially and so I'm still able to feel and they're like we've
only put one stitch in you and we can't continue because if we put in another dosage you're

(01:24:40):
going to fucking have a heart attack.
Oh you find with if we just superglow and you just never move your finger for like a
week and I'm just like yeah yeah please do.
So they fucking do and I just I just never move my finger for like the next week and
it healed up nice.
I even took out the stitch.
I took out the stitch myself.
I literally took a screw a wood screw and I put I put it right underneath it snipped

(01:25:03):
one side and then screwed it underneath and it pulled out the stitch perfectly.
Oh my god how the hell did I end up in a room with two people who do this kind of shit.
There was another one where I was blacksmithing and I got it was at night and I was on my
anvil was a stump at the time and I put it I put it on I fucking hit it hit it again

(01:25:27):
and then I drop it on accident on my third hit and it's gone.
Basically it went from a dull cherry red to gray no no coloration in non-glowing which
means it's probably around 900 800 degrees and so I go to work on another piece I was
working on at the same time and I stepped on that one.
I got a third degree burn immediately on the bottom of my foot and I didn't go to school

(01:25:51):
for three weeks.
I tried not to go to school.
My dad made me on the second week because he was like you're fucking baby go to fucking
school and I'm like this shit hurts.
Yeah he later got a skull on his entire stomach that was second degree first degree skull
for most of it and it was just such a large surface area it could have been technically
third degree but again and he looked at me and went I don't know how the fuck you do

(01:26:17):
not take a single bit of painkiller whenever you had your burn because I'm on fucking Vicodin
right now.
Oh shit.
For everyone who doesn't know Vicodin is an I think opium based painkiller that is like
you need a prescription and you need to be like you need to know what the fuck's going
on because you can get addicted to it fast.

(01:26:39):
Well I understand with burns this leads into the second injury that I had in art school
because I burned myself with this one.
But not to like your extent it wasn't really like as bad.
I was working on a project I was using I was using like tiny pieces probably actually about

(01:27:02):
the size of my lapel mic of a poster board.
I was putting all this stuff together and I was putting together with hot glue so I
had a hot glue gun or something like that.
Oh those hurt bitch.
The way that the way that I was holding it I held it I held the little piece about like

(01:27:24):
this and I was hot gluing it.
I had like accidentally slipped and touched it barely touched the hot glue barely with
my index finger.
It didn't hurt that bad but I flicked it because it surprised me.
I flicked it up the stupid thing like flew in the air and landed perfectly right here
or the hot glue was just right on my wrist.

(01:27:47):
Audio listeners it's yeah it's right on his wrist.
Yeah just right on my wrist right there.
Just I don't know how it fell so perfectly.
It was like it was like it was pretty much just you took it in blender and this made
it rotate to that point.
It's literally just what happened and immediately I just I was just like that's a problem.

(01:28:10):
I just got up bolted over to the sink and just poured cold water on it immediately and
everyone was like are you okay and I'm like I'll be fine.
He means blender the 3D modeling software not a blender important distinction.
He did not put his elbow in a blender or anything like that.
But both purses the blender was made by General Electric.

(01:28:31):
Speaking of blenders.
You two just have these injuries.
I think the worst injury in recent time that I've ever had like one time I was just walking
outside and then I like stepped I made my foot accidentally turn 90 degrees like to
the left and fucking sprained it's like pretty much walking on the side of my knee or walking

(01:28:52):
on the side of what's that part not the knee the joint between your leg and your foot ankle
ankle yes I'm very smart.
Don't worry I'm very smart so like just pretty much stepping using instead of the bottom
of my foot.
Skeleton diagram we're learning this stuff get the diagram that one hurt the diagram
was also made by General Electric so we can just look at like if whenever we need to we

(01:29:15):
can just poke at it and be like yes the ankle yeah the skeleton in the corner but no I could
not like walk for several days after that was really bad.
I think the other only other my foot knows about two hours okay I hate talking about
any injuries relating to the bottom of the foot because like holy the bottoms of my foot
are so sensitive and if I even have to imagine something sharp going through the bottom of

(01:29:37):
anyone's foot I immediately get like protective of my feet I'm like no walk on nails walk
on nails.
Stop.
The nails were made by General Electric.
Yeah they were okay.
The other injury I can think of in recent time would be when I was like trying to go
get a light bulb to replace my lamp with and I accidentally squeezed it too tight and it

(01:29:57):
like shattered in my hand that wasn't fun but so for everyone's information I got daddy
issues just like you two I kind of I did not bandage it up I like put pressure on that
for like maybe 10 minutes and walked it off.
So speaking of feet this isn't an injury but this was just something that happened.

(01:30:17):
I over like time I believe this was in middle school but over time on my left foot I had
started like getting like this bump on the top of my foot that was just kind of this
weird little bump that like I we just no one knew what it was my friends were convinced
I had cancer.
That's a great way to get absolutely bullied for being a cancer patient in school.

(01:30:42):
No it was my close friends that said that it was kind of a yeah yeah a joke because
I was like it obviously wasn't.
Yeah.
But she's like like bro you got cancer I was like yeah General Electric made it I don't
know what to tell you.
Yeah he goes back no one knows this but he just went back in time to childhood to say

(01:31:03):
that yeah yeah and this is still a joke.
You have a joke that you need to tell in 15 years.
There's going to be a weird bump that's going to generate on your foot and if someone mentions
cancer you have to say it was General Electric you might not even know who they are you know
yet but you just have to say this.
This will make sense 12 years later.
General Electric has been around for over 50 years.
No I'm saying who the fuck knows who General Electric is as a kid.

(01:31:28):
So okay well you raise your hand.
I'm like none of us know what it is so we're like okay well let's try and figure out what
it is.
So we go to the doctor and the doctor's looking at us and he's thinking about what it could
be and he comes back to us he says I have no clue what it is.
It's like okay we go to another doctor he refers us to another doctor.

(01:31:48):
Doctor looks at it he's thinking about it he comes back to us I don't know what this
is and we're like okay this is a problem.
Am I patient zero in this situation?
What's going on here?
The doctors in your state suck.
Well figure it out.
That's why I came to you.
Wait what we're going to name it if it was your thing.
Let me continue this because this gets you wackier.

(01:32:12):
This gets wackier because it's like okay but here's what we're going to do.
There's a bunch of doctors that are going to be like at this doctor's conference at
this point in time.
It's like 20 to 30 doctors at this thing.
And so what we're going to do is we're going to have you come into there we're going to
have you in a room and all of these all 20 to 30 of these doctors are going to come through

(01:32:34):
and take a look and they're all going to come together and they're going to figure out potentially
what it is.
It's like okay cool.
Jesus Christ.
So we go to this and it's just me, mom, mom and dad that are there.
We're all just kind of children there and doctors are coming in.
Sometimes it's like one individual doctor and occasionally it's like two or three or
something and they just kind of go through it.

(01:32:56):
Like nothing really exciting happens except for this one doctor that comes in and me,
my mom and my dad are all looking at him very very particularly.
Then he leaves and and we're all three looking at each other and I finally just say did I
just get my foot checked up by Willy Wonka?

(01:33:21):
And we all just start dying.
The dude looked exactly like what Gene Wilder or Johnny or Johnny Dapper.
Gene Wilder.
Oh okay.
Holy shit.
I would look like he looked like him.
He dressed like him.
He had the hair.
Everything.

(01:33:41):
Like it was pretty much just like there's Willy Wonka and I'm like I don't know what
just happened.
Photo on screen of Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka if anyone has not seen the 80s movie which
to be fair it's pretty old.
All those doctors go through.
They all go through.
They come together.
They talk about it and then they come back.

(01:34:02):
One of them goes the messenger comes comes through as one of the doctors.
They come in and they say we have no idea what this is.
God damn it.
What do you mean?
It's like General Electric fitted me with something different didn't they?
I don't know what's going on here.

(01:34:24):
So essentially essentially at that point it's like okay so like no like there's this theory
of like potentially what it is but what they need to do is is that at that point it's like
we're just to make sure that it isn't something really really bad.
Their theory was it was something similar to a surface foot towards like you get something

(01:34:45):
like a bump or something from surfing all the time.
So at the time I wore flip flops a lot especially in the summer.
So it's like it probably is something similar to that but just to make sure that it isn't
anything bad then we're going to have to take a biopsy.
I remember this because you were talking about about what are they stitches?

(01:35:07):
Jesus Christ.
You're talking about stitches.
We go in and they they do kind of the same I don't remember exactly what they put in.
It's just me and my mom there and they come by and it's like okay so here's what we're
going to do.
We're going to numb it and then after that we're going to be taking a piece of that part

(01:35:29):
of the foot out so that we can run tests and stuff on it and then after that we're once
we get that piece then we're going to stitch it all back up.
Okay.
So they numbed it initially and they put a bunch of like whatever the numbing agent was.
They put a bunch of it in and the part where they took the piece out I didn't feel but

(01:35:54):
whenever they started stitching I felt.
I mean I I don't know why I didn't say anything.
I just kind of just held it really well together at the time.
I just kind of I just kind of braced myself a little bit and I just kind of held it really
well together toward nobody noticed that I was in excruciating pain.

(01:36:20):
You probably should have said something so they could give you more knowing agents.
I probably should have said something and then once it was done we left and I looked
at my mom and I was like that hurt really bad and she's like why didn't you say something?
You're supposed to do that.
They're supposed to help you.
You've got to tell them.

(01:36:41):
Yeah.
Yeah I don't know exactly what was running my head.
I was just like I don't know.
I had I had I had already been to like to about twenty three to thirty three doctors.
One of them was trying to sell us chocolate that was made by General Electric and chocolate

(01:37:05):
and I think at that point I was just like I'm just going to endure this and then hopefully
this will be the end of it and turns out it was pretty much just the equivalent of surface
foot.
I don't have that bump anymore it went down over time.
Okay I'm like I was so so curious to see if this was going to go anywhere like a little
more interesting.
No it really just was that the whole time.
It really was just from from from wearing flip flops from wearing flip flops pretty much.

(01:37:31):
It doesn't have a great end it's just the middle and the stitches are the best parts
of that but it's just like I had a thing we didn't know entirely what it was.
We have a working theory.
I think I had a bump on the on the side of one of my feet.
I think I had a bump on the side of one of my feet at one point that I had to have drains
because it was like a cyst and then I think it came back a little bit and now it's gone

(01:37:53):
away pretty much.
Nothing crazy though but I've also had a bump on my foot but on the side.
Drain done.
Like they they didn't have any trouble figuring out what it was.
They were like yeah we just got to drain that like okay.
We just got to drain this.
I was like well what what happened well somehow you got a lot of fluid in there.

(01:38:17):
Where's the drain it?
Yeah it showed up and now I don't know where I was going with that bit.
I don't know.
I felt yeah I felt like you were you were in the bit tone of voice but I'm like where
the hell could this possibly go?
It was my experience.
Where are you going with this bit?
I was trying to figure out where the bit was gonna go.
I didn't have a good direction.

(01:38:38):
Yeah.
Even now I can't think of anything that would have.
General Electrics caused a disease!
General Electrics gave me fluid in my foot!
Maybe pump it fluid in me!
They're gonna sue us for defamation.
Oh no it's fine you're the General Electrics robot.
Yeah.
I'll spray things in you.
God damn it.
If it wasn't really obvious audio listeners Gears is in a robot avatar and probably will

(01:39:01):
be for the foreseeable future.
My balls are metal and so are yours.
There are no balls there!
Gears is a Tesla robot that they can play with a lot.
I'm gonna drive away!
Weeeee!
I'm gonna transform into a motorbike.
He transformed into a car he's driving away.

(01:39:21):
And that was tracking a scuffed.
Oh no you're okay.
I wanna know what the hell.
What is.
I have to know.
You're a loser baby a loser but just maybe we can.
He's dancing off camera.
Eat shit together things will turn out differently.
He's dancing off camera right now.
What is the name of that enemy from HL2.

(01:39:43):
They're like humans but all of their emotions and memories are stripped away from them and
their like eyes are replaced with a laser beam and then their legs are replaced with
like metal stubs because like they're just meant to work some machines and not have any
sort of things going for them because otherwise they could escape you know if they have more
human properties and maybe they'll like function.

(01:40:04):
I just heard laser eyes and I thought Superman but then you started mentioning everything
else.
Yeah Striders are the super tall like three legged things that like have a gun on their
face they shoot you with.
The stalker wait the stalker yes stalkers from Half Life 2.
I can probably put up an image of these guys they're really creepy looking.
My friend Roland used to do a really good impression of these and would actually wear

(01:40:26):
this avatar in VR chat and would act like one it was really creepy.
Isn't Roland the one that just disappears also just like me?
Yeah no but he's disappeared for a much longer period of time than you now he like kind of
ditched everyone for like a month.
He's just around he showed up a couple months ago.
I hope to have him on this podcast at some point I'm sure he'd get on for it.
Oh yeah definitely.
Is Roland like Sonic the Hedgehog going down the San Francisco streets?

(01:40:47):
Roland not Roland.
Rolling down at the speed of pound got places to go gotta plow my way through it.
So far I've been thinking of a lot of names of people who I want to have as guests on
this podcast and I'll only say the names out loud for I'm very confident that I'd be able
to get on is um Witchy who is actually messaging me today.
Witchy's cuckold chair.
In the middle of recording this I have not responded to him but he has been asking uh

(01:41:09):
you'd say you'd invite me as one of the first guests.
I'll get around to it.
I also want to invite Cross because I think he'd be great to have as a guest on here.
Oh Cross would be hilarious.
And I also I think it'd be easier for me to get Roland on here it just would take me like
actually yelling at him and I'm sure he would like immediately get on because he's he like
just is preoccupied with life and stuff but like if he was specifically requested to be

(01:41:31):
somewhere he most likely will be there.
That's the most that's the last time I saw him was he was requested to be at a DJ event
that my friend Rose was hosting and he showed up for that and it was a lot of fun and uh
you know that was like after not seeing him for like a year and a year and like two months
I think um so what's it Roland what what's his uh Roland Von Rose is the red robot.

(01:41:53):
I've definitely shown you photos of me and him before um I can put one in the group chat
here I can put this one up on screen as well.
This was from the last time that I saw him.
He also puts PNGs of his face um onto his robot avatar so there's the picture.
Because I met I met a VR chat DJ uh in Vegas who actually hosted a uh a DJ event uh in

(01:42:18):
Vegas.
I went to a comedy club one night before in VR chat and the guy was the guy who hosted
it was called Alaskan Jew.
Oh God.
Love him.
He's hilarious.
I see I should probably go to a comedy night.
What's his name?
I should go to a comedy night in VR or just in general.
We need to fucking play god damn fucking.
Yeah I know what you're about to say.

(01:42:39):
I know I know what game you're about to say we should play it.
Don't don't do a comedy club in VR chat some of the comedy clubs they went to were atrocious.
Oh yeah I bet some of them are probably shit.
Um I was saying like in VR or IRL you know I feel like going to a comedy show uh just
in general would be fun.
The Alaskan Jew hosts a really good one that I actually do like.

(01:43:01):
I went to it once and it was actually really funny.
I actually really liked it.
Shout out if you want to be on the podcast and you're watching this for some reason uh
let us know.
Voltaku used to be on.
Oh yeah we've already decided that we're going to have Volt on because it is is it
Saturday next week?
No it's Friday.
It's Friday.
We're finally getting on his show.
It's Friday we're being on Voltaku's show which will be great.

(01:43:23):
By the time this episode comes out it was probably um by the time this episode comes
out I'm pretty sure it'll be three weeks from then.
It was a year and a month ago who knows.
But yeah it's been a while.
We're finally going on to his show this week.
And then we'll have him on our show eventually.
It's like good lord man this took forever.

(01:43:46):
I'm gonna sit there in that chair next to him and I'm gonna tell him.
He's like it's fantastic you got your own talk show.
This is really neat.
It's gonna be really exciting.
Exciting.
Especially the fact that it's six months Jay Leno will take your show back.
This episode has been going on for a minute and 52 now.

(01:44:06):
An hour 52.
Wait what?
An hour 52.
Yeah it's been an hour 52.
It doesn't feel like it at all right.
It does not feel like it.
It doesn't it really doesn't it's just.
You said a minute 52.
I said a minute 52.
An hour 52.
Yeah that's why we were like a minute 52.
Wow it felt so long.
This episode has been going on for a minute 52.
How do we put all that into a minute 52.
What two hours stretched into a minute 52.

(01:44:28):
Some like time space bubble.
I bet you this will get cut down to like an hour 20 hour 30.
I don't really plan to cut anything out of these like there's not really much to cut
out.
We've been talking about like fun interesting things about the whole time.
Please censor my balls at the beginning.
I'll just zoom into your face all the way okay.

(01:44:49):
Zoom into my balls.
You don't have any.
You don't have any.
Your avatar has a robo pussy not robo dick.
It's robo bussy.
No it's both.
It's robo bussy.
Yeah it's both.
That's how that's how women work.
They had to both.
They have two.
You potato potato is still made by General Electric.
I've got tits.
Oh my god.

(01:45:09):
But this was a lot of fun.
We'll be back next week in all three of us in VR.
John will not be at his parents house and so he'll be back on the couch hopefully not
sick.
And you guys should hopefully see this eventually.
I think you guys will probably be seeing this episode in May.
So happy May month of May.
This would be like mid to late May somewhere around there if everything works out.

(01:45:31):
For those of you who are watching in May are you are you enjoying playing the Thousand
Year Door?
Yeah true.
Well that's I think that still might be like a week after.
We'll probably have a whole episode talking about the Thousand Year Door because you and
I are gonna play it.
And Gears you have a switch.
We're gonna play it.
Yeah you do have a switch.
Okay.
So all three of us will get around to playing Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door and I've

(01:45:52):
never played the original.
I've only played Paper Mario for the Nintendo 64 so.
Thousand Year Door is great.
Thousand Year Door is amazing.
Is it free or do I have to buy?
It'll be a $60 game.
It's a remake but it's gonna be $60.
We're gonna have two episodes specifically around Paper Mario in general.
The first one's gonna be about the Thousand Year Door and why we love it so much.

(01:46:13):
The second one is gonna be about Sticker Star and why whoever decided that that was a good
idea to be shot in the head.
I played a bit of Sticker Star on the 3DS.
It wasn't good.
Anyways, the thing that's happening right now which is the, I was told last night.
I played Sticker Star and I got very angry and I started a cult.
Last night I was told this saying, which this does portray it ending the episode, but I

(01:46:36):
was told this saying that I've never heard before but happens all the time in my home
and I do live in the Midwest.
He called it a Midwest goodbye or something like that.
Trying to inch towards the door as you have another conversation for an hour even though
you say that you're leaving.
My family does this all the time.
You're like, okay, it's time to go but then you're both still just having a great conversation

(01:47:02):
as you're inching towards the door slowly over an hour or two.
I do this on calls.
I do this on calls with my mom.
I don't think it's restricted to just the Midwest but sure, we're gonna call it that
because all three of us are pretty much, you're like Midwest area-ish, right?
No?
Maybe?
I don't remember.
I'm stupid.
Where you live is not even technically classified as Midwest.

(01:47:24):
He lives in France.
No, where I live in is classified as Midwest.
No, you're French.
I'm not East Coast but I'm Midwest at least.
Okay.
I'm past your high.
What you need right now is a cigarette and a baguette.
No!
No!
You're a fucker to everybody.
Oh, that's a different one.

(01:47:47):
That's a different one.
You turned it into Super Mario there.
Oh no.
Speaking of which, Super Mario, the Super Mario franchise was made by General Electric.
No, we're not getting into Super Mario.
It was not made by General Electric.

We'll talk more.
General Electric will have a comeback next episode.
We'll talk more about General Electric next week.

On the next episode.

(01:48:07):
You're a loser, baby, a loser, but just maybe if we eat shit together, things will end up
differently.
