That's nice.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
So it was really
great to meet some of you guys.
I'm happy that that was yourfirst icebreaker for a con.
Again, I think order to do it.
So that's why it's like, ifanybody's interested into
getting into cons, this is likewhat they do as like their test
run kind of thing, to see ifthey like it, versus going
somewhere for a weekend andpaying 150 to get in, kind of
thing.
You know, yeah, for the weekend, kind of thing and not even
(03:12):
knowing what you're going to getinto.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I was gonna bring out
the batch to show it off, but
uh, it's deep in the yonders.
You know what I'm saying as youcan tell back there, I got a
whole rack of badges fromconventions it's not a prop all
mothers they all nut up intolike one big lanyard, uh, maze.
So I'm just gonna leave it backthere, but uh, I mean there's a
few more from this year.
You know, it was funny, we wentto dallas, back to back to back
(03:38):
, because after anime dallaswhich was a lot of fun, one more
time and we were releasing allthose videos and separate
episodes we we went back forAnime Frontier.

That's right.
We should have done that thatwas a wild card, that one.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
You guys did voice
acting right.
Speaker 1 (03:51):

actually a lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
My boy over here did
the voice acting audition.

He said pizza.
Yeah, no, I'm joking, but itwas great.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
How do you pronounce
the word D-E-I?
Speaker 2 (04:14):
D-E-I-T-Y yeah,
d-e-i-t-y, deity.

I think it's Deity Deity.
Deity sounds better Do.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I Deity, deity.
I know you didn't say Diddy,but it sounded like you said
Diddy, god's have no honor, Idon't care if you're a Didi, a
Didi, wait, man.
See, that's why we shouldn'thave put that.
You gotta move yourself around,bro, it's you.
You gotta keep your hands toyourself, bro.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
It's something like
your mom the ghost of Didi got
into his hands.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
The ghost of Didi
yeah, man, I got up there and I
was like God's have no honor andyou're no Diddy.
And I was like no, diddy.
No, diddy, I don't think that'swhat I meant to say, but, diddy
, I think it fit the scriptbecause at the very end was like
and I think that would be myreaction.
That would be my reaction if Ihad to face Diddy in a party.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
It was great man, but
you know what?
Speaker 3 (05:28):
We were really proud
of ourselves just to go up there

like 50 people maybe more, it
was like 200.

300 people that showed up.
They were only able to toaudition about 100 people more
or less and, uh, just so much.
A lot of people that were outthere.
The con was great though.
Overall good shopping.
That was a really coolexperience, um, but in my
opinion, enemy dallas had someof the better vendors, bro, but
I don't, don't know.
Speaker 3 (05:41):

a little cool vendor Shout out

Speaker 2 (06:22):
oh, I don't want to
mess that up Anyway it's really
hard.

It doesn't do it
justice, it doesn't do all of it
, but it's on like parchmentpaper.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Yeah, I don't know
what else to call it.
It's a paper mache.

All of our boys, that's righty'all.
But yeah, man, so those wereour cons, obviously this year,
but we had some great episodes.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Some of them were for
sure.
Most recent, I can recap, wasthe Penguin.
We did two specials on that.
One One was like the introepisode.
The other one was likeconcluding it.
We had a hiatus on purposebecause we wanted to finish the
show.
Yeah, because it's so good.
We generally don't do that, butit's one of the greatest shows
this year that it was so goodthat we dedicated like.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
All right, we'll be
back after we finish the series
For our WBA wrap.
I think the penguin was thebest TV series of the year.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Facts yeah, man, yeah
100%.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
I mean there's a
couple of series that give it a
run for it's money.
But if I had to like pick thetitle for the year, penguin did
the last of us come out thisyear?
No, the last of us came outlast year.
Yeah, penguin, bro, that's it.
Yeah, fallout, fallout, fallout.
Actually won't, because arcaneis not an annotation of league
of legends well fallout isliterally in the video game
world is in universe lore, sothat's why uh, that's my
(10:39):
argument for fallout.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
I would agree with
that yes, like as far as the
video game aspect of it, I feltlike I was the player in uh
fallout, you know what I'msaying versus the penguin.
I was watching the birth of anew character kind of thing.
Yeah, so it was different,different of acting.
But as far as, like best showPenguin, bro Hands down man I'm
sorry, I'm not even trying toride the hype train on it Like
Colin Farrell, the next levelacting that we saw that in the
(11:01):
TV series.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Absolutely,
absolutely.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Early in the year I
did a bunch of anime corner
episodes where I recommended abunch of random anime.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
That's right, you
sure did man.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
I'd probably bring
that segment back, but I know
one that we love talking aboutwas Akiba.
Maid Wars, bro.
I keep on seeing those memes.
I still recommend Akiba.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Maid Wars.
I gotta watch that one, yeah,if you like the penguin.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
It's like the
Sopranos, but in Tokyo.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
And maid bitches.
I love it.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
I don't know how many
times I could sell it, but it's
just that, guest I give up.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
I gotta watch it, did
you see?
Speaker 1 (11:31):
that League meme
where it's like Jinx versus
Seraphine.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
I don't even want to
give spoilers, because that
scene is from the very lastepisode.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I bet you it's super
awesome that scene is a huge
spoiler.
I love it, though when I see itevery time I'm like this has
got to be the fucking anime he'stalking about, bro, every one
where she's eating and she pukesright, and everybody's like.
I want some of that.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
She's got the face
all beat up and she starts
crying.
It's like this is you in League.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
She's just all beat
up Because yeah, man, speaking
of League, we did a lot thisyear, man.
We played a lot of games inLeague of Legends.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Did we even have a
League episode when we talked to
you?
We're talking about it rightnow.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Legends never die.
Heavy is the crown, heavy isthe crown.
Didn't we do a full episodeTalking about Linkin Park, or
half an episode?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
I think it was like
the world's events.
It was worlds this year.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
We talked about
concerts, but we revisited our
music.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
That's right, yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Because we're a very
musical show and we talked about
legacy.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
It's not even about
the concerts anymore, bro, it's
the legacy of the band.
That's right, we're gonna haveit yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Oh cause anymore, bro
.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
It's the legacy of
the band, that's right.
Oh, because we saw, because Isaw the Wailers.
That's where we had an episodeabout that the Wailers, wailers,
wailers.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Wailers, oh no, and
Journey.
Remember Wailers, the poorJourney cover.
That was the other one.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Yeah, so we had a.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
I think about, but
it's been a long time in the
concert.
But I think, bro, we went toT-Pain this year.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
What are you?
Speaker 1 (12:55):
talking about.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Bro, that was one of
the greatest concerts of my life
, bro.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
You know early in the
year Sorry bro, I was like, I
was so damn in my head.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
I'm about to switch
gears so hard.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I don't think I've
done the hardest segway I was
like I'm so damn sure of my head.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
I'm about to switch
gears so hard I don't think I've
done the hardest segue.
Earlier in the year we talkedabout men's mental health.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
We had like three
episodes back to back where we
were like what the fuck is thatwe did do?
Speaker 3 (13:19):
that.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Yeah, you remember we
had mental compliments about
men and compliments.
Oh, that's right, that's true.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
And then in the same
episode, when we talk about
facing the lion but not alwaysfeeling like Daniel.
That was a good episode, Ithink one of these guys dropped
that little nugget.
I think it was him.
Go back and watch that episode.
Was that this year?
That was this year Another onethat we talked about men's
mental health and a lot of otherthings.
It was me thinking about yourlaundry days.
For a whole month, we droppednothing but men's mental health
(13:56):
episodes.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
Shout out puppy pads,
bro.
Oh yeah, Puppy pads.
Yeah, the puppy pads.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I tell you what man.
That was a good year.
I think that's part of theChinese order puppy pads.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Facts that is the
year of the puppy.
This, oh yeah same episode.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
I spoke about Madam
Web and how it's like not that
bad of a movie Super mediocre,that's right.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Not that bad of a
movie Wildly mediocre.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
More than both
Morbius and Craving the Hunter.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Like I said, wildly
mediocre.
Like it's not a high Walterscale but, like I said, but yeah
, man, madam Web, the whole Foxuniverse is dead now with Sony
shit.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Madam Web falls into
that category of movies where,
like, just tell me the wholeplot and take as long as you
want, because that still beatsme reading over it like wicked,
like I'm not talking shit aboutit.
Well, maybe I am, I don't know.
But it's like, hey, just tellme what happened and you know, I
want to move on my life, kindof like madame webb and craven,
wasn't it?
Draven the hunter and more.
Just tell me the plot, you know, hey, it's gonna take an hour,
(14:49):
perfect you know, save ticket.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
I agree, there were a
lot of good movies that dropped
this year.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
The fact that Madam
Web opened with a 12, craven
opened with an 8, and RottenTomatoes is wild.
But, like I said, I'm happythat Sony's going to kill that
shit.
Speaker 3 (15:02):

.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
Cool man.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
I think one of the
worst things that the creator
didn't do is that theprotagonist from Vigilantes
should have had a couple ofscenes in the main series Like
cameos or something.
Yeah, but he was in one paneltowards the end.
But, yeah, towards the end,he's in the background somewhere
bro Trust.
But Vigilante is a little moremature than my hero.
Yeah, that's what I heard.
It's a little bit Speak.
