00:01:31
Speaker
And I'm just like always going to polish that. You have to do it. That's your job. That's your duty, Devin. yeah Pretzel M&Ms. you think I'm not going to finish those off? Sometimes I'll get to like the third of a box of something.
00:01:45

00:02:16
Speaker
Do you think that that's ever intentional? Like, she's thinking and, like, she sees, oh, you know what? I could finish these. Yeah. like No, I think so.
00:02:26
Speaker
She's like, eh, fuck it. I'll just give it to the garbage. I'm a dinosaur under Fred's sink. yeah Basically. I think that sometimes I'm like a little scared about it.

Indie Wrestling and Comparisons
00:02:51
Speaker
arms.
00:02:51
Speaker
Like I'm happy about it. I had an event. um is that what we call bm yeah yeah that's that's what i'm leaning into i consider an event because it happened over multiple time periods um i got i got real sick to my stomach last night and uh from about five in the morning to about 8 a.m. It was just shitting.
00:03:19
Speaker
Going sleeping. up You woke up. You had an event horizon. oh what yeah Oh, 100%. I ate something. that and was that i went to the Columbia. columbia ah Columbus Farmers Market.
00:03:33
Speaker
okay and Welcome to colo Columbia. i ate i i ate everything there. Everything.
00:03:45
Speaker
yeah and Columbus ah farmer's market is solid spot. It was all carbs. It was just carbs everywhere. What exactly did you have? Pretzels, donuts, cookies.
00:03:57
Speaker
I think I had a slice of cake at some point. Dude, I was pouring it on. Did you buy anything at the flea market? Fuck no. I just ate food. She just went there and ate.
00:04:08
Speaker
Yeah, basically. But that's like some of the best stuff there. You know that. It was all... It was like Amish made food. Oh, dude. Amish food's so good. I know. was really good. I got a fucking delicious red velvet cake at Columbus Farmer's Market.
00:04:25
Speaker
It's... Their bakery is... was like, okay, sick. Their did donuts were great. Yeah. Pretzels are great. I can tell you everything there because I ate everything, what if whether it was good or not.
00:04:38
Speaker
was It wasn't Columbus, I don't think, but I i told you guys how I saw ah an indie wrestling show at a farmer's market. Really? Which one? Dude, I don't know, but...
00:04:50
Speaker
ah i'll tell you ah Like a year or so ago? Probably. I'll tell you this. It was what you'd expect. ah Oh.
00:05:01
Speaker
So funny enough, we go there and like like it's in the corner and there's an ad. It's like, oh, so-and-so CDW at, you know, six o'clock tonight. And Jenny's like, we should like stay.
00:05:15
Speaker
And I'm like, I really don't want to because she doesn't know. She's only seen the good stuff. ah She's only seen the high caliber stuff. he's seen And i was like, Jenny, like this is lower of the lowest. And I don't mean like disrespect, but like yeah I was like, I don't think this is...
00:05:31
Speaker
This isn't going to be... She's like well, I've seen bad wrestling. I'm like, you've seen Boxer Mania. There's a difference. but but This is below CZW, and we saw that. Were you grabbing her by the neck while you were explaining that? Yeah, you were just... All right, two tiers. It's WWE, top tier. AEW, little below that.
00:05:51
Speaker
You got ROH under that. That's Ring of Honor. that Right below that, how's your CZW? see z do Oh, don't forget TNA. That's kind of where that's a little bit above our age, I say. Yeah. yeah So, um no, the the awkward part, though, was people definitely thought Jenny and I were like part of the show.
00:06:15
Speaker
who i'm ah I'm a stocky guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get you. think Jenny's always done up pretty much. You two are a wrestling couple. If I saw you from afar. That's so true. And I was like, you guys, Randy Savage.
00:06:29
Speaker
and i play and stare at and i was like oh man you you guys randy savage
00:06:39
Speaker
What was her name? Deborah? ah Miss Elizabeth? Miss Elizabeth. you go. Dude, Jenny's obsessed with the Macho Man memes. Like, a little too obsessed, I'll be honest. But, hey.
00:06:54
Speaker
Who am I? Who am I to be the bad guy? He's fun. He's fun. He's a blast. Point being, though, point being is we went, we saw half the show. They broke, and I was like, we have to leave.
00:07:04
Speaker
This is... I've seen enough. They broke? like like It was like, you know, like, oh, we're going to take it a little intermittent. they took a break. Oh, okay. I see. Yeah, I thought it was like someone died in the ring.
00:07:15
Speaker
Yeah, some guy... Dude, it looked like a few of them were going to fucking die. Not because it was hardcore. It was just like... They were gassed. What do you do in wrestling? Yeah. <unk> like I don't mean to be that guy, but i like in I was like, I could probably have gone in and taken some better bumps than Devin, you could have just cinched that heckin' wrestler couple right there. You could have just locked that title in that night.
00:07:40
Speaker
Jenny would have had to get spiderweb tattoos on her head. Or some Luna Blaze or Medusa, whatever her name was. Oh, man. That would make you Bam Bam Bigelow. Honestly, you guys would you guys would slip into that like a warm bath.
00:07:54
Speaker
Yeah, probably. Honestly, you'd be like the John Cena that fed. yeah the The farmer's market fed? The farmer's market fed? My god, it's David Kopech! Finally go heel after 20 minutes.
00:08:07
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. I ate too many presents! Red velvet cake is filling! I mean, if I would have gone in there after what I did, mean, it would have been a mess everywhere.
00:08:21
Speaker
Those fellas would have been cleaning up after me. Would have real trouble. Let me tell you that. No, it would have been shit, Devin, for me. You know, it's funny. I had my own ah event last night as well.

TV Show Reviews and Speculations
00:12:11
Speaker
think he's going to be good Hal Jordan. I like him way more than fucking... ah they had josh brolin in the works for that rather not have him no would have been good but you it's just one of those things where you know he passed so they gave it to him yeah that's one of those things it's its bad it's a shame thing because josh brolin kind of was the perfect casting for jonah hex but that movie was a nightmare of i mean you know but he's also perfect casting for thanos for cable
00:12:41
Speaker
his His chin... For old boy. For old boy. Don't forget that. His chin does look like a set of testicles, and that's why they chose him for Thanos. Big, gravelly, nutsack neck.
00:12:52
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, they knew. Yeah, this Kyle Chandler guy is going to make a good... going to make a solid... Yeah. Especially, dude, if it's like... I'm really into the vibes of that picture, too. Me, too. like I like... I like this. You know, John, you know what I'm thinking? You know I'm thinking? 48 hours.
00:13:09
Speaker
forty eight hours fucking Nick Mokey, Eddie You give it like a buddy cop vibe where they don't like each other in the beginning and they slowly come to like each other as it goes on. wow It's in my goal, baby. Some people people were speculating that it's like maybe something that... No, that it's like ah like it's a training simulation that that Jon Stewart may not be aware of that is training for... Oh, Hal's dead.
00:13:35
Speaker
Oh, you know what? It could be, yeah, like a like a ring. Maybe not Hal's dead, but like He has to see how acts in this type of situation to see if he can handle being a lantern, which is kind of interesting, too. Because, yeah, it would be cool to see a fucking... It's a show, I think. It's a TV show. To be honest with you, I think Green Lantern would work spectacularly as a television show. I think there's so many facets to the world.
00:14:04
Speaker
You could do a bunch of to other different types of lanterns as the seasons go on. it really... opens itself up. you know So does Psycho Guy Gardner show up in this show, you think? Does he make a cameo?
00:14:20
Speaker
yeah He should. yeah Nate Fillion? Nate Fillion himself. Dude, he's perfect for TV. I know. You've seen him on TV before. He was Castle.
00:14:32
Speaker
he was dying This guy that's Castle, Jon Stewart, he's going to be he's gonna be good too yeah hopefully Hopefully he gives Jon Stewart like the um like a big... Because I feel like Jon Stewart's not as popular, but he could be.
00:14:48
Speaker
Guys, this is classic old white guy, young black guy. like we're we're We're seeing it again. It's training day. It's going to be... But we're going back to the 80s, man. young yeah know Old black guy, young... i mean No, no, no. Old white guy guy. Young black guy. Oh, boy.
00:15:06
Speaker
Sorry. Just gonna back out of this one. What? That's a popular formula, Devin. No, you're right. You're right. Hey, it's in F1. I finally watched that trailer. It's the same thing. Yeah, you're right. I just love how turned around on that after I watched the trailer.
00:15:25
Speaker
Dude, oh my this actually looks pretty good. I think it's a solid trailer. I don't think it's... When is the Lanterns TV show coming out? I think 2027, dude.
00:15:34
Speaker
ah yeah same year we get got The same year we get the fucking Zelda live action movie that nobody fucking asked for why Why? it's just me It says 2026 here. Guys, I think this is the perfect time to bring up that show I watched on Apple TV because it actually does kind of tie into what we're talking about, especially the Zelda live action announcement.
00:15:58
Speaker
I watched a show with Seth Rogen who also drags and writes it. It's called The Studio. And he plays a studio executive that is now running his own studio and has to promote the new IP that his boss gave him, which is the Kool-Aid Man.
00:16:18
Speaker
And in the first episode, he manages, he wants to get an auteur director to make it. And he gets Martin Scorsese on the phone. And he's like, I'm going to get Martin Scorsese to make a Kool-Aid Man movie.
00:16:30
Speaker
And eventually Martin Scorsese pitches him another movie. the Jonestown massacre and Seth Rogen makes the leap and he says, well, didn't they drink Kool-Aid to kill themselves?
00:16:45
Speaker
Oh my God. So he changes the name from Jonestown to Kool-Aid. ah And then, uh, yeah, I don't want to give away what happens at the end, but, um, I think it's fucking hilarious.
00:17:01
Speaker
I was laughing my ass off. There's two episodes up on Apple TV at the moment. And yeah, it's, I think Bryan Cranston's character is supposed to be kind of like a caricature of David Zaslav too.
00:17:18
Speaker
like Like that's what I've been told. The rumor is that's who he, he betrays David Zaslav in a way. um Go check it out. It's very funny. i think it's good. I'm not going to, going to reserve my review, yeah,
00:17:34
Speaker
it is quite indicative of like everything that's going on in Hollywood right now. Yeah. okay Yeah. I thought this was like one of like three other like a weird, like producer based shows.
00:17:46
Speaker
Uh, it was not, this is different and this looks good. It's also one where it's shot like Birdman, which is really fucking cool. So it's like a one.
00:17:57
Speaker
Yeah. So actually the first, the second episode is called the one. Okay. And it's about, Seth Rogen desperately wanting to be on set while they shoot a one-er and he's like just an annoyance to the director and the entire crew who don't want him there.
00:18:12
Speaker
Yeah. um Yeah. The whole show is like a series of, of like one shot, one takes and it really works. It's cool. Great performers too. It's like Catherine Hans in it.
00:18:26
Speaker
She's fine amazing. Yeah. there And she's like, oh, she said something about like, you want to make the next big auteur Oscars. He's like, I want to make the Mario Brothers movie.
00:18:39
Speaker
That didn't win any Oscars. That won $2 billion. dollars ah Yeah, shit. It's just very much on the pulse yeah of Hollywood at the moment.
00:18:53
Speaker
And I like it. I was laughing quite a bit. right. Well, i saw I finally got around to watching Challengers. That movie's real good, guys. it's i yeah It scratches a very specific itch that hasn't been scratched in a while.
00:19:15
Speaker
um Where it's it's a sport movie, right? But basically, the framing story is this... tennis you know match between these two old friends who then, you know, there's a tangled throuple here with Zendaya's character, Tashi.
00:19:39
Speaker
So it's Art, Patrick, and Tashi. i and And then it kind of like there's flashbacks. Isn't she like both their coach it their coach? Like she's really good and she's coaching. I couldn't swear that would have. So like the rough story is Tashi is like a tennis prodigy.
00:19:57
Speaker
And she Like, when you meet these characters, she's she's her husband's coach, who's Art. And then Art's kind of... His career's on the downswing. He's, like, might retire. He's trying to kind of get one last kind of run at it, but his heart doesn't really seem into it.
00:20:18
Speaker
So Tashi's character's kind of, like... She's a hyper competitive person and she had a knee injury. So she couldn't. She had to stop.
00:20:29
Speaker
So she has like this crazy competitive drive that her husband kind of doesn't have anymore. And there's some drama there. And then she's like, hey, why don't you kind of.
00:20:41
Speaker
He's trying to get to like the I can't think of the the terms for like the major tennis Wimbledon. Yeah. She's trying to get to like Wimbledon and and things like that.
00:20:52
Speaker
and he's so oh what A Grand Slam? Is that what you're talking about? like I guess. like what Whatever the big like events are. The Open? Wimbledon? yeah the oin slam There's four Grand Slams, Devin. There's Wimbledon, there's Roland Garros, which is the French Open, there's the Australian Open, and then there's the US Open. yeah okay yeah So it's like, yeah, she's trying to get him there, but she's like, hey, why don't you go to a Challengers?
00:21:18
Speaker
Which apparently is like Kind of ah a lesser tier game. Yeah. and Why don't you just get your confidence back? And then where he meets Josh and again, and Josh's character. I'm sorry, out Patrick.
00:21:31
Speaker
Patrick's character is like this down on his luck. He's broke, but he's a very. who's Who's hotter are the two or the two boys? say Patrick. Patrick's hotter.
00:21:41
Speaker
Is it because he's more hungry? or is No, no. So what you find so he's like this guy who's like really good, but he's just kind of like a super inconsistent player. Oh, I see.
00:21:52
Speaker
And then she's like, oh. He needs a coach. Yes, but what you find out is he's like, okay, they're going play each other in the final, which is not a surprise, right? And then as they're playing, we flash back to when Patrick and Art were – they were a doubles championship team.
00:22:12
Speaker
Interesting. And they played the whole time, and then they meet Tashi, and then – They both want to hook up with her. And then there's all this fun, you know, it's just good fucking plotting and movie. Cool.
00:22:24
Speaker
adame i was like Anime stuff? No, no, dude, dude. So and then it kind of keeps going back to the game. Right. Yeah. So it's like, oh, fuck. Like now Art's winning. Now Patrick's winning because the the the main, not the main hook, but one of the the big threads here is while Art was a much more successful tennis player, he's never been able to beat Patrick like ever professionally.
00:22:49
Speaker
Like Patrick has his number for whatever reason. Gotcha. He can get his head. Yeah, and then, you know, just as the movie goes by, you see these things happening. and It's a real good fucking movie. And I will say, um I think the hook here that we all saw in the trailer is like, they have like a weird like throuple. And then one scene, hell yeah but they're making out with her and then she just has these two guys make out with each other. And that's like and then it's like, eat to mama, Tom Bien.
00:23:22
Speaker
I guess. Yeah. But like the thing is, is like it's it's both overplayed, but also very important to the story at the same time. Like i was like, is this movie just going to be like less about tennis and more about like these guys just like being. But it's just about to into each other, but not really.
00:23:42
Speaker
you know You know what I mean? But it's not really about that. It is much more about tennis. Which, that's cool to me, was it cool far more interesting. Because, I don't know, I was like, alright. I do like sports movies. It has that hook where you're like, well, who's going win? Now I'm investing in both guys winning.
00:23:59
Speaker
like I don't know who I want to win more. Because they both have, like, well, this guy's a piece of shit, but this guy's also a fucking loser. Because like he just doesn't have the drive. and And then...
00:24:12
Speaker
Tashi's character is awesome. And then it has such a good ending. My only one weird hang-up is there's an intense amount of slow-mo near the end of the movie.
00:24:25
Speaker
And not like not like Zack Snyder slow-mo. Just literally just... them just kind of bouncing the ball on the racket and and about to throw.
00:24:36
Speaker
But they're sweating profusely and it's too much slow-mo and too much sweat. And I'm just like, guys, one of you has to fucking hit the tennis ball. It's like you probably could have cut out five minutes of sweating in this movie. Yeah, there's something that... ah so that was ah It was like horny. It was like hor horny. Definitely.
00:24:55
Speaker
Honestly, by the end, I don't think it's horny. It's like competitive. it's Well, competitiveness can
Film Preferences and Director Styles
00:25:01
Speaker
be a form of a sexual attraction in some ways. Yeah, that's horny. I mean, so no, no, for sure, for sure. But, like, there's just points where I'm like, all right, guys, like, I get it.
00:25:11
Speaker
It's like the fifth close-up shot of this guy sweating and, like, bouncing the ball to hit the fucking thing. Like, I just want to that. I'm pretty sure I remember Michael Jordan said that he wanted to fuck every opponent.
00:25:25
Speaker
I never played because it's part of the whole competitive spirit. That was it. Well, that was his. I'm a fuck you till you love me. Yeah. What's the. That's Michael. Give me some my Mike Tyson. Give me some Mike Tyson stuff. Oh, fuck you till you Yeah.
00:25:38
Speaker
Yeah. ah Anyway, you don't see that in tennis. there Honestly, this movie was fucking awesome. I see it. I'm going to highly recommend. I'm going to do a Luca, Luca Glanian chill. And I'm going to just round up all these super sexual films and watch them all.
00:25:57
Speaker
Oh, man. I think' like sex i got to watch. It is a sexy because I still I haven't watched Bones in all either. And i want I really like that. I like that more than thought I was going to that. Yeah, this was just one of those. i'll tell you, dude, I liked Call Me By Your Name way more than I thought I was going to like it because i didn't think I was going to like it at all.
00:26:16
Speaker
That's kind of the way I thought about Bones and all. I didn't think it was really off in a little bit because I thought it was just going to be about, oh, these two cannibals trekking across the country, which is kind of cool. But like, what else are we going to do? But no, there's like this whole lore to it.
00:26:30
Speaker
that's really You know what? I think ah just the way you guys are explained, like that kind of seems like his. That's like his theme for themes. You're like, don't know if I'm going to like this. They're shallow. And then you love it. And then you end up loving it. There's really shallow. Can you just watch it?
00:26:46
Speaker

00:30:46
Speaker
Yeah, that that is... And he's he's doing Sergeant Rock, right? Is he still doing Sergeant Rock? um He's not doing it anymore? I think Daniel Craig dropped out, and I think that was kind of the driver. Oh, he was to be Sergeant Rock?
00:30:58
Speaker
Yeah. Probably. he was like, what do you mean he's not gay? I had no interest. bun They're banging each other in that tank all the time. Are you crazy?

00:31:25
Speaker
You watch Yellow Jackets. I'm three in. Three in. Okay. I like it, dude. Dude, it's good, dude. You're not even at the best part. I know, i know. but like, I remember you telling me, like, it kind of felt a little, like,
00:31:41
Speaker
It did. i think the adult section did feel little aimless in the first couple of episodes. Yeah, but dude, like, ah basically, up episode three, no real spoilers, but they had the hallucination in the cave.
00:31:53
Speaker
Oh, yeah. And I was like, okay. hell yeah it's just lovely yeah and it's it's this nice show that jenny's like not really interested so i can just kind of watch nice and fall asleep and i'm like this season this season is phenomenal because i i'm caught up i watched the most recent one this week and oh oh it's just like it's getting it's getting very quickly to the point at the beginning of the first season okay like at that yeah crazy point i guess steve did you ever watch shelly jackets
00:32:29
Speaker
I watched the first episode and I was really into it and I just just never i just never got around to watching the rest of it no i get it I think I got a free sample on like YouTube I think you'd really like it Steve i think oh I guarantee I'd like it it hits a lot of like horror like i love these horror plane crash survivors trying to survive I mean dude that was like Hatchet right come on Hatchet thought you were dancing around the obvious one you're like Hatchet I was trying to. I was trying to think of the the winter one. like, I'm not. Passed away.
00:33:03
Speaker
ah Brian Song. Yeah, yeah. Sure. first the first ah of the final destinations. Yeah, yeah. Sure. Technically, kind of.
00:33:15
Speaker
Although, technically, he prevented that. Not the big one. Well, not no. He didn't prevent it. He saved his friends. Did he, though? No. You know what underrated plane crash movie? The Grey.
00:33:28
Speaker
Oh, that's a good one. That is a good one. I think a lot of people poo-pooed that because... They're fools. Well, what's his name? um Liam Neeson. Liam Neeson was sort of at that point in his career where was playing the same character over and over again. Oh my god.
00:33:43
Speaker
A man who fights wolves? Come on. That was like so different. It was the similar but different enough, and then people just ignored it. They went, I've already seen Taken. It does have like the most one of the worst tropes ever, which is dead wife that's only seen it under white sheets.
00:34:06
Speaker
why That's one of the things when I like became aware of it, I'm like, I cannot. that it that That movie is not about some dead wife. You know what about? It's about a bunch of dudes that hate God.
00:34:17
Speaker
That hate God and are punished for it. Yep. terrible fucking man that's awesome that is a good thing to make a movie out of yeah uh and uh i've been playing uh i think chipping away uh frank stone i kind of like start playing it but you know due to the fact that it's like 80 movie Yeah. Just kind of like start playing on my phone a little bit. I'm like, oh, fuck. I gotta like... You're like, supposed to be watching this. Damn it.
00:34:48
Speaker
I watch it, but then I like... I'm on my phone. When I actually have to do things, I'm like, okay. don't feel like walking around this like stupid store right now. like I'll wait.
00:34:59
Speaker
But, you know, it's not bad. I just... I took a pause on gaming to watch terrible movies. That's fine. Dude, I'm... Hey, we did that to you. We did that to you. But, dude, I mean, I've like...
00:35:12
Speaker
Yeah, I feel like I've, like, hardcore paused gaming. I've been thinking about just going back to, like, Final Fantasy. I have things to play, but, you know, I got to put my my attention.
00:35:25
Speaker
I mean, I do, too. Oh, here, let me tell you this story, Chris. Oh, yeah? What you got? steve I told Devin ah the other day I was GameStop.
00:35:35
Speaker
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And the GameStop guy, like, just was, I guess he was playing Assassin's Creed Shadows. Is that the name? Yeah.
00:35:45
Speaker
The new one? Yeah, the new one. Okay. And he's, like, really, like, trying to sell to me. And I'm like, i'm like yeah, that sounds cool. Like, you know, Samurai game. And I was like, is it, like, like, you know, he's going in, like, you know, it's the first Assassin's Creed where you can go prone. Yeah.
00:36:01
Speaker
Like, all this stuff, I honestly, I don't i never really played any Assassin's Creed, so i don't really care. Yeah, no context. thats Yeah, I don't really care. yeah The only thing I know is like a samurai game. so I was like, alright, cool, like, is it like more like Ghost of Tsushima or like Sekiro, right?
00:36:19
Speaker
He's like, those are the two samurai games that I played. And he's like, yeah, he's like, I would say it's more along the lines of Dark Souls because of the ah there's a posture bar, and I'm like,
00:36:31
Speaker
why this guy is a fucking fraud. Did you spit on the floor? I wanted to. i tell them Yeah. I was like, dude, like he could not have failed the test as, as worse as that. Like, that's like getting a zero on an exam, right?
00:36:51
Speaker
Not even getting a zero. Like, that's like, it's not like you put the wrong answer in. It's like you, it's like you, you put in, Oh, uh, instead of a through D, he does his own E, and it's like ah completely, it's like the opposite of what's right.
00:37:07
Speaker
It's not just wrong, it's like the opposite of what's right. It's like, write your name, and then he just put it there. but I was just like, dude, like, what are you talking about? like yeah and Is there... and someone I wanted to ask Chris, like, is there ah is there like a posture bar? Is ah is there like, you break posture in Dark Souls 3?
00:37:26
Speaker
Because there there is kind of an Elden Ring. There's a stamina bar. and yeah so that's the other thing he said that there's no stamina there's no stamina meter in in assassin's creed either so i'm just like how is like anything like what is he talking about and if there's a post if there's a posture system like wouldn't that be along the lines of sec securo then have the urge to just spit on my own floor right now right yeah so i'm just like yeah like I mean, like, but I'm not I am not buying the game.
00:37:58
Speaker
Yeah, I'm interested in the game. and Like, I guess ghosts would be closer, but it's like, you know what it plays like? Fucking Assassin's Creed. Like, yeah. we losing Yeah. Yeah.
00:38:10
Speaker
you yeah But I wanted to see I wanted the comparison. Yeah. I wanted the comparison of like um what? Like the samurai combat. Because that's the thing. Ghost ghost and Sekiro are very different.
00:38:21
Speaker
To be fair, I don't think any of us have played it. So what if we're just assholes and he was like totally right? I mean, listen. It's not the comparison. It's what he said about Dark Souls. Yeah, what he said was wrong. Yeah, he should have said. It's like if there's a posture system. There is sort I mean, there is a posture system, but it's not like a bar on the screen. You know what?
00:38:46
Speaker
John, how confident was he when he said this? Was he like, oh yeah, there's a posture system. I mean, no, but it's it seemed like... There is a posture system in Dark Souls. It's just not like a bar on a screen. Yeah, it's it it may have seemed more along the lines like maybe he just doesn't know what Sekiro is or never heard of it. That's more... Which weird too, right? because well what now but Actually, John, that I don't know if that is because I feel like There's no no, I'm serious. Okay. Yeah. I, I, I talked to someone at work who's a little younger and I, you know we're talking about video games, of course.
00:39:23
Speaker
And I brought up, like, oh I'm a huge, like, FromSoft fan. I played Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 3. And he was just totally not interested. Like, not at all in any of the... Yeah, maybe the guy just doesn't know. Maybe he just ah maybe he doesn't even know. what Maybe it's nothing like Dark Souls, and he was just saying that it is. That's kind of... Because what everything is Souls right now. the go-to, right? Everybody just says it's a soul it's like Dark Souls. It's like Dark Souls.
00:39:49
Speaker
Because he also said something like, um It's also kind of like Black Myth Wukong too, which a lot of people that never played Dark Souls say that it's a Souls-like, but then people like Amir, who really loved the game and is a huge FromSoft guy, says it's nothing like Dark Souls. Yeah, right? so Yeah, so it's like...
00:40:11
Speaker
So I don't know, man. almost I don't really think the Assassin's Creed game player the fans line up with Dark Souls fans. It's insulting that they would even put them in the same sentence, I think. Yeah, they're not they're not the same fans type. They're not the same game. It's it's very di ah different.
00:40:30
Speaker
I think one has a one has a stranglehold on like the genre at the moment of just like kind of like adventure action so i think well i mean well there's just that term it's like kind of more sometimes used uh incorrectly as like marketing to get people into the into the game yeah okay yeah because he worked he works he sells video games like that's what he does but also like sleep but also like why didn't he just say the magic word you know why didn't he just say elden ring everybody knows elden ring if anything that's way more mainstream than dark souls like
00:41:01
Speaker
I think personally, the way I think, that Assassin's Creed is to Kid Rock as ah Dark Souls is to Eminem. Like, they're both white performers, but one is very But one is actually talented and a genius.
00:41:17
Speaker
An actual high IQ genius. There are people that love Kid Rock. And they are the the Assassin's Creed fans. And they don't know anything, or they do, but they're not interested in rap like Eminem.
00:41:31
Speaker
you know Yeah, but the bar with the bar is like, is rap to them, right? Yes. no It's not. And it's a heart, and they think it's the same. That's where that's where the crossover happens. Like, people who play Assassin's Creed think it's the same as a FromSoft game, and and people play FromSoft couldn't be more different.
00:41:50
Speaker
Like, they know. They know. Like, it's completely different. Yeah, i think that I think the people who are, like, playing Assassin's Creed are aware of what they're playing, because this is, like, kind of, like, following up... I forget what the ah the Egyptian Assassin's Creed was called, or was that Greek?
00:42:08
Speaker
No. ah Origins was Egyptian, Odyssey was Greek. Okay. I forget which one came first, but that's where they kind of changed up the formula to be a little bit more melee-focused, right?
00:42:18
Speaker
Oh, I see. so Yeah, it became much more of an RPG than, like, assassin's creed 2 yeah and i know this one has where it's like it's two characters um and the one guy is the samurai and the one girl is like the ninja assassin and so like you you trade off from doing like action to like assassin stuff yeah like the one the uh yasuke is like the tank or whatever like he's like joel and then like uh the the girl's name is like
00:42:49
Speaker
i forgot her name, but like, she's like more like slippery and like, yeah, she's more of a ninja and one's more, she's a, she's like a hunt, a destiny hunter. And then Yasuke is like a Titan or something is, is what I heard.
00:43:03
Speaker
yeah we're like I mean, it seemed interesting, but like the fact that it's Assassin's Creed turns me off. actually off yeah And two, the fact that Ubisoft turns me even even more off. But they made Ghost of Tsushima, right? That's good. they know the other wasn't them yeah at sony That's Sony and Sucker Punch.
00:43:22
Speaker
holy The thing, though, is with this Assassin's Creed game, I see all of the awful people coming out of the woodwork to, like, you know... To trash it for the wrong reasons. This game's got And just all these awful mouth breather nightmare just racist coming out coming out of every every outlet. And whenever I go into Steam discussion, I just immediately go, oh, okay, never mind.
00:43:47
Speaker
And I put it away because they are it's filled with the worst people. And that's unfortunate because it ruins any type of criticism that the game should have. Yeah, because, you know, somebody You know what I mean? I just am somebody who's like, yeah, I've played a few Assassin's Creed's. Like, I enjoyed them and, you know, I kind of fell out because, like, it's a little formulaic for me.
00:44:07
Speaker
Right. Like, the you know, i'm I'm sure they're fine games. Like, you know, it's just like, you know, where someone's being a little bit more picky with their time. Yeah. ah An Assassin's Creed game is a big endeavor because it is a big open world game. Yes, a huge open world game. I hate to assume that your criticism of it would lead people to believe that you're a mouth breathing racist. Yeah, that's the problem. yeah That's the issue, really. Right. She was like, yeah, we can't we can't criticize like, i don't know.
00:44:34
Speaker
I mean, I think you still can criticize the game, but it's just like... I know, know. like It's just like the discourse is completely... Because, now yeah, the discourse makes you like draw a line in the sands. Like, if you hate the game, then you're racist. You start you start wondering where the person's like actual like motive for the criticism comes from.
00:44:51
Speaker
right Whether it's just like, yeah, I just want to play like you know these certain games. Might not be my thing. Or it's somebody who's like, I have an entire heckin'
Cultural Phenomena and Movie Budgets
00:45:01
Speaker
manifesto hung up on my wall and I'm ready to unleash. And you're like, okay, Currently reading the Turner Diaries while pi while streaming. Yeah. With Asma Gold.
00:45:12
Speaker
I saw... Oh my god. The worst. The worst. You know what's funny? I saw a report Where there was a chase, like a police chase that was happening. And it was like, there was like the ah cam, the body cam.
00:45:27
Speaker
yeah The police inside their car, they were listening to Osmogold. Oh, like a live stream. And the dude that was running had a live, his live stream running on his phone of Kai Sinai.
00:45:40
Speaker
And it was just like my brain wanted to melt out of my ears. I saw that. I don't think either of those people should be she' have been watching a live stream. I know!
00:45:53
Speaker
and What was happening to them? It was like this super tense moment that was happening. I'm like, this is this is what the world has become. This is it. and i It was a shocking revelation.
00:46:07
Speaker
you know we have We have weirdly split our culture in every way possible where like people just can't be like, alright, it's a game that's not my vibe. like Alright, it's not my thing.
00:46:20
Speaker
Like you have to like literally like in some people's heads, they have to fight against everything and, and, you know, turn everything into like their beck and call. But it's just like, I remember back in the day, if a game came out, not for me, I wouldn't play it.
00:46:36
Speaker
And I wouldn't cry about it for months and months. and Exactly. I think that's really what it all boils down to. And, uh, Yeah, having having to have to have an opinion about everything is is really... It stinks.
00:46:50
Speaker
Yeah. Like, you shouldn't... There's just some things like... You know, you guys threw me a bunch of these movies that are really bad that I would have never have watched that have certain slants one way or another. And I'm like, I would never want to expose myself to this in any other way outside of this situation.
00:47:11
Speaker
but I don't see complaining about it one way or another either. Like i would have never watched it. i wouldn't even complain about it. I would have been indifferent to it, which I feel like I am with a lot of things to be perfectly blunt.
00:47:26
Speaker
There's some things I'm just like, I don't care. i don't have the time or effort to put the amount of care or like fervor into things like that. Yeah, exactly. Like, to I'm not a big fan of romantic comedies, but it seems like they are making a surge again.
00:47:43
Speaker
I'm not one of those people, like, I think the younger me would have been like, those fucking sucks, these shitty fucking movies, give me shit. But now I'm like, I don't, don't care like whatever whatever you get your kicks from i would watch a chris go chris galani directed and written romantic comedy oh yes oh my god god and you know that's the thing though it's like how how if you write something that you hate how do you not fall on the satire true like how do you not like endlessly make fun of it
00:48:19
Speaker
Because that's the thing about romantic comedies is a lot of people don't understand is there is always like this sincere streak that kind of runs throughout them. Like they have to be some level of sincerity has to be in a romantic comedy or there isn't stakes or relationship.
00:48:38
Speaker
There has to be a moment where they fall apart and they come back together. And that's all on the back of sincerity. And I just don't have that in me. yeah last everyone has to be sincere at the airport where they have to catch her yep exactly and then you well that's the you know end of the movie they go to the airport and they go you know what let's go to patty and you're like oh my goodness oh my goodness boom fucking final destination movie
00:49:10
Speaker
Then a plane crashes into a log truck. Oh, dude. i'll fucking A plane that is a log truck. a log plane. a log plane A log plane. This shit writes itself, Chris. all together Damn, and it's a romantic comedy. Of course. and only till Only at the end, when they're on that log plane.
00:49:32
Speaker
Wait, they're on the log plane now? At the very end, they're like, oh, I want to come with you wherever you go. You know, you're you're my only one. You're my light. And they get on the plane together and it's Final Destination.
00:49:44
Speaker
It's Final Destination. Oh. So like though that weird string of movies in like the the late 2000s that was like, oh, it's it's a nine eleven movie. Yeah! Where are they headed?
00:49:56
Speaker
New York, New York! What year is it? 2001! Better hurry up, it's September! some asshole getting on the highway while that log truck drives by. We all know, we all know it's gonna happen. can we all Can we all just fess up?
00:50:12
Speaker
That is now a fear, right? Yeah. When you're behind ah ah log truck. You know what? I'll be honest. It wasn't for me because I watched the behind the scenes and they proved like be beyond a shadow of the doubt that that's not how logs work.
00:50:28
Speaker
They're like, every time they did it, right? They would just fall and then roll. Just drop and roll, right? They didn't bounce. Yeah, yeah. They they go outward. We had to use CG for that. That's okay. now Well, then, what about a giant rubber stick truck?
00:50:42
Speaker
Oh, my God, dude. Dude, just a bunch of, like, really hard dildos. Did you guys hear that apparently this Final Destination movie has a bigger budget than all previous ones combined?
00:50:57
Speaker
What? That's bad. With inflation... Factor game as well? Probably not. um But like, I'll be honest, because I watched the trailer for it and I was like, it's five, right? Final Destination five, five or six. I can't remember. But I was just like, Final Destination looks like it's too much money.
00:51:17
Speaker
lines Dude, they've they screwed the pooch because I'll tell you the dream Final Destination movie. You make it a fantasy movie that takes place in like a Tolkien-esque universe.
00:51:32
Speaker
The entire franchise's budget is $154 million. Whoa, that's so low. That is so low. That really low. And five Final Destination 5 is $158 million. is that That's just how much movies have ballooned to, I guess. i do like the last what's superman what its you What's Superman's budget?
00:51:53
Speaker
think that's two twenty if i remember So not even as much as Superman Returns. Oh, you're talking about Superman Returns? No, Oh, the one? The new Superman is less than Superman Returns.
00:52:05
Speaker
Oh, no. Was it Superman Returns? Like $300 million or something? The new Superman movie is projected budget as $363 million. And they can't even fix his eyes, Devin? However, hold on. James Gunn has publicly addressed and denied these claims General budget expectations have the movie ranging from $200 million to $300 million. sources say $180 million.
00:52:27
Speaker
What were the... just scale, the banana for scale, what was like... don't know. like i guess just for for scale the but banana for scale what was like i don't know winter soldier or something or um civil or you know what was infinity war what was the budget for infinity war i think that was 316 so the the so that's like the the running go rate is like around 300 million to make a budget to make a big big picture but i also think if i remember wasn't infinity war and um if any war and endgame weren't they shot together
00:53:05
Speaker
I think they were, and I think... like Wasn't the combined... The rumored combined budget of that was a billion dollars, which I think... okay Yeah, it's like $356 for Endgame.
00:53:17
Speaker
See, if they... That's kind of tricky. If they ended up shooting stuff for Endgame while shooting Infinity War, then you're like... Is that a combined budget? Is that a separate budget?
00:53:29
Speaker
Wait, that's that back to the future two, three deal, man. Yeah, exactly. Interesting. I don't know. i don't know. The Russos do have a tendency to really jack up the budgets on these things, though.
00:53:41
Speaker
You know why? you know why their budgets are so high? No, why? Pre-production costs. It's not even fucking... Because production costs, of course, are going to be high. But their pre-production costs are like double the standard rate for blockbusters. I'll be honest, I don't see where that went in Electric State.
00:54:01
Speaker
They eat so much i don't fucking caviar, dude. Yeah. I mean... Also, I see i yeah and will say, apparently Final Destination 5 came out in 2011. So this is Final Destination 6. Damn.
00:54:18
Speaker
So it's been over decade. Bloodlines, right?
Marvel's Daredevil Critiques
00:54:21
Speaker
Yeah, so it's been over a decade. So obviously budgets have gotten higher. That's pretty high, though. I'm going to see this. I mean, yeah, me too. The world needs a Final Destination.
00:54:32
Speaker
Yeah, I kind of like these movies. Speaking of... a
00:54:39
Speaker
to Blood. You guys see Daredevil? Blood. Oh, yeah. I watched both episodes of Daredevil that we got. Yeah, I did, too. Yeah, that was funny because i was telling Chris I was um was just up late ah Tuesday night, and I went, oh, wait, that's right.
00:54:57
Speaker
It should be out. Or Monday night, whatever it was. And i was I was just up and late enough to watch the shows. And I put on episode five, and was like,
00:55:08
Speaker
i was like That ended it. And I went, huh. And then it was like, do you want to watch episode six? And all I'm going to say right now is I definitely understand why they put two episodes in.
00:55:20
Speaker
Yes. think if was only one episode... People would freak freak out. yeah and And again, what I said earlier was I don't even think episode five is like terrible. It's just tonally completely different.
00:55:36
Speaker
It feels like the pilot for another show. It was a different show, right? And you know there's no confirmation. i haven't read anything, but this definitely feels like, oh, this is what Daredevil was going to be before he dumped everything.
00:55:50
Speaker
I personally, god I think this is awful. Like, I think it's an awful episode of television. I think the writing is bad. i think the shoehorned in Marvel Cinematic Universe shit is bad.
00:56:06
Speaker
i The villain is bad. the general plot is just like a bad version of Inside Man. Like, nothing nothing worked. At all. Yeah, I mean, I yeah i think it's... I mean...
00:56:21
Speaker
It's just like, you watch the next one, and it makes the the the the episode five make even less sense. Yeah, yeah. You're right. Because it's like why like, why didn't he just go full full fucking hard on in this situation, where there's there's hostages, blah, blah, blah. Like, you know.
00:56:40
Speaker
he wanted to be cute. There's guns. He wanted to be fireman. Yeah, and like, it just... And then i think this – I think – I don't know. like I was talking about it with Devin a little bit. like Yeah, like I agree with you, Devin. It wasn't like wasn't like that bad, but like I think episode six was like not good either.
00:57:00
Speaker
like I agree. yeah kind of like it was i I don't think it was awful, like five. I think i five, terrible. I think six was... yeah I'm starting to see the the stitches kind of come undone.
00:57:13
Speaker
like Yeah. Dude, that fucking that fucking mannequin in that shot, when I called that, when I was like, I'm not crazy, right? He was blatantly carrying their' budget guy But like, I just love... so he just like some of the It just seemed like, it seemed a little forced.
00:57:30
Speaker
Like, yeah the Like, him putting the him putting the costume back on felt a little, like, anticlimactic because, like... because that's the first time you see it after. That's the first time you see it.
00:57:40
Speaker
And they tried to build it up with the with the previous episode. Like, I guess episode four, right? Where he's, like, doing the fucking... The fucking... The fucking... The kill bill shit on top of the roof, right? Yeah.
00:57:52
Speaker
Like... So, like, you're just like, oh, man, something huge is going happen. Maybe Wilson Fisk is going to freeze his account. Maybe he's going blow up his house. i don't know. Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe,
00:58:04
Speaker
and me thing or maybe cars go to do porn for and and in sell his fucking secret identity for for one shot of heroin i don't know dude but it was like i mean grant granted like the heck are yall stuff yeah sure like that would that makes sense but like when cherry was like talking about Serial killer, 60 victims deep, paints paints murals with his victim's blood.
00:58:29
Speaker
Like, you could literally, you could hear Matt's boner hitting the bottom of the table. He was so excited. So like so that that's why I'm like kind of um kind of like... like pick Pick a lane, right?
00:58:44
Speaker
is that Is the 60 victims... is that Is that what turns them loose? Don't go out there, Matt. Or is it Hector Ayala's... Is Ayala's niece?
00:58:56
Speaker
And not only that, he was able to find this fucking elusive serial killer in like literally five seconds. instant like not Instantly. I don't know. It's just like it felt... Actually, like I read up on Muse because I didn't really know much about the character. And the thing I read about him, which was I thought they were going to put in, which I thought was really neat, is apparently he's like a black hole for perception in the comics. Like, people have a hard time seeing him, even though they're, like, standing right and right when he's, like, standing right in front of them.
00:59:28
Speaker
Yeah. And it fucks with Daredevil's radar. Well, it seemed, I mean, if that that may have been what they were going for, but they didn't flesh it out, right? They didn't.
00:59:38
Speaker
Like, if you think about it, Matt should have, like, this version of Matt should have been able to just break him with one punch. Can we go back to the fifth episode where, like, you you wait for, like, that part where it's like, oh, alright, Matt's gonna go whoop this guy's ass in an alley.
00:59:54
Speaker
And then he gives Matt, like, a genuine, like, shovel. Yeah, it's like, who are these guys? Yeah, it's just so funny. fucking guy! This is a regular old Irish guy that he has to beat up. Also, like, okay, here here's... looking can hand so here's the here's the other thing that's kind of weird, right? And you can you can see that they're trying to use, like, I guess, assets, even, like, I guess, writing assets, like, story assets, still, because, like, you know, fucking Fisk puts together the anti... He puts up this task force that
01:00:30
Speaker
That's supposed to be for Muse, but then he changes it and calls them the anti-vigilante task force. And it doesn't make sense because the reason why he put the team together is because this fucking serial killer is on the loose and he's painting murals of Kingpin in blood that somehow a fucking, they hate they somehow the fucking sanitation crew can't,
01:00:53
Speaker
can't erase blood off what like the you but he uses some sort of epoxy he uses an epoxy it makes it impossible to clean yeah so like so like that like it's weird right because you can you can tell like that they they needed i guess the the this the writers needed a like um like a fulcrum they needed a a a uh what do you call it like um Like an inciting incident to get him... yes so Yeah, like a catalyst a catalyst for both... For for for Matt to become Daredevil again, and for, i guess, Wilson Fisk to put his Punisher squad together. Oh, yeah. we're already
01:01:33
Speaker
Which were already doing Punisher stuff before, right? So, like, you just it's just, like like, jagged pieces of, like fragments of stories that they're trying to like make it work together and you can really tell that it's it's it's extremely inconsistent yeah it's it's i mean it wasn't in the first i'd say first three episodes it had like this consistent theme that looked like they were going down but you can really see the the stitching yeah now yeah now it's like you it's it's really apparent and like would really really still piss me off you know and i'll say this again like
01:02:06
Speaker
you're really going to, you're really going to fucking, you're going to use this. You're going use the title born again. You're going to use that. You're going use the iconic title born again for this stuff. Like that's what really bothers me because like, I don't know, maybe the next season will be really good.
01:02:19
Speaker
That's kind of what I'm thinking. Like this is all leading up to the Kingpin eventually putting his target on Daredevil and ruining his life, but we're not going to see that this season. It's going to be just the beginning of that.
01:02:31
Speaker
Like what other, yeah. So like what other, cause like, Fisk becomes mayor, right? and In Bendis' run, um right? I'm assuming. I think. No, wait. Mayor? No. the Maybe not mayor, but like he retires. he retires from being the kingpin. Matt becomes the kingpin.
01:02:50
Speaker
Matt becomes the kingpin, right? He beats kingpin almost to death and then takes the but job. Yeah. And then everybody confronts him. So why don't what why don't they use those?
01:03:02
Speaker
like those story beats for this. I don't know. You know, like, yeah like remember when when Matt fucking carved the bullseye symbol on Bullseye's head? Dude. This would have been a perfect, like episode one would have been a perfect time for him to do something like that.
01:03:16
Speaker
He's just killed Foggy. I think they're, they have no solid direction. It's just fucking makes, it's so bad, dude. There's no, there's no solid direction. they're They don't know what to to adapt. They don't know whether to adapt Born Again. They don't know whether to adapt ven they just want to use They just want use – they Googled best Daredevil story. That's what it feels like. And Born Again was the first one that popped up. So they were like, all right, that sounds good.
01:03:39
Speaker
yeah i mean and like And they're forcing – no, and listen to me, Devin. Listen. Listen to me. Listen to me. This is third like this the first episode too where they're forcing they're forcing Matt's religious um his religious struggles and conflict.
01:03:54
Speaker
That was a big theme and in the Born Again comic book, too. There was nothing leading up or alluding to him being like that in in in this season at all. And now he's just praying. Yeah, praying a little by his bed. Like, what the fuck?
01:04:06
Speaker
Like, are you just going like, try to fucking force Born Again fragments in there? Like, what's next? Matt's just going to take a rocket launcher out of nowhere and then shoot? i mean that would be pretty badass.
01:04:19
Speaker
Like, what? Yeah, he's going to shoot down a Kingpin's fucking Air Force One. helicopter with with the RPG like out of nowhere, out of context, just because it happened in the in the comic.
01:04:30
Speaker
It is interesting because it's like you know the the previous seasons of Daredevil have all kind of cherry-picked from around all the Daredevil stories, Born Again included. Yeah, but Steve, I think that's also... That's its biggest flaw.
01:04:45
Speaker
like No, I'm um'm with you. you know I agree. i agree Because like imagine that one season, what is Season 2. they had the wonderful but Punisher Daredevil arc.
01:04:55
Speaker
going And then they pivot over to the Elettra, the hand arc. And that's just totally destroys the tone and the the pacing slows down. It's like tell one story. It's four amazing more amazing episodes.
01:05:14
Speaker
and then i just fli I just flipped to to page 66 in Born Again right now and it's Matt getting his ass handed to him by a fucking dude in a Santa suit. And we don't get shit like that. Yeah.
01:05:26
Speaker
I mean, guys, like, I... Marvel's... Since Age of Ultron, Marvel's like, oh, let's just use the name, but it doesn't really have to be... I know. And it won't be one-to-one, right? Secret Invasion, this... It hurts, though. But the time, it was right there. Yeah, but... do But, Devin, Devin, that's Age of Ultron. This a personal story. Yeah, this is, like, this is, like, this is... funny this is This is like literally like... no. My comparison is... No, but like, yeah. But the thing is like my comparison before was it's like why didn't they just... Why did Christopher Nolan just call his third Batman movie The Dark Knight Returns?
01:06:06
Speaker
Why didn't he just do that? that would um Would that have made more money? Actually, i probably not because at that point it would have just been the same. But like like... It would it would fit... like the Cosmetically, the title would fit in the context of the story of the movie, of Dark Knight Rises. So why did they just do that? that's my problem. They didn't call it No Man's Land either. Exactly, yeah.
01:06:33
Speaker
Like, they could've? I think they just knew. theyre all right let's not Let's not, like... temper expectations of the story we're telling like and it's crazy too because we all pointed out things with the born again the actual comic that we would have cut like we're we're talking we we're talking about it right now with the rocket launcher like No, no, no. I would not... He's holding on to that. Yeah, I'm holding on to that one. For I would have cut out... What is it? Nuke. That whole thing. Captain America.
01:07:05
Speaker
Cut that all out. i mean yeah yeah yeah got it because yeah already did it Because you already did it. and And that's it, really. like Just take those parts and make Born Again. And it's just so right hard. Because it is at the very... yeah bear bare bones like what is what is born again it's Wilson Fisk finds out Matt's secret identity or Matt is daredevil and he makes his life a living hell and then he has to and then he has to yeah and and Matt has to he has to withstand it he has to keep from going insane like why can't you just do that like I don't understand want to see Matt Murdock on the street like living in a sleeping on the street yeah getting beat up by hobo Santa Claus getting stabbed you know
01:07:48
Speaker
yeah like I want his house, you know, his what? Cause like in the book, like, you know, Fisk freezes his accounts and then he fucking forecloses his house. And then blu blows up the house.
01:08:00
Speaker
Yeah. Then he blows up the house. He just like him too, right? you mean Yeah. Yeah. Dude. Yeah. I mean, everything, everything you could think of ah like the clean above the line shit that Matt Murdock had is gone.
01:08:13
Speaker
Lifting weights, I feel like this Matt Murdock is better off than the way but original series. I'm like, this guy works at a fucking like successful law firm.
01:08:23
Speaker
Cherry's giving him scoops. Yeah, yeah yeah here here's he doesn't here's a question. Kenny Rogers chicken roasters with a fucking bright-ass light in his house. Here's my question to you, Steve. yeah think You think ah Born Again comic book Matt Murdock would just leave a $1.8 million million dollar diamond in in a fucking bowl for somebody. That's so much! You would need that. I hate it so much!
01:08:49
Speaker
The closest we've gotten to the Born Again comic is when Matt was beating up the cops in the apartment. And it was such a fucking dick tease. I actually thought he killed them.
01:09:01
Speaker
Because that would ah that would be more along the lines of Matt going insane in Born Again if he actually killed somebody. and know Or if he actually killed Bullseye, too, that which he tried to, which they still haven't addressed.
01:09:12
Speaker
Like, is that a thing? Is that an actual thing that they're going we haven't seen him since. We better get a fucking flashback where Karen comes back and is like, you know why i left. And then flashback that maybe she caught Matt fucking gun to his our fucking face.
01:09:30
Speaker
Carving a Bullseye in his head. Yeah, like, come on, on man. dagger yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We need that. No, but it's like That's what, like, it would have been... Dude, that was the perfect time for him to do something like that.
01:09:45
Speaker
But no, he just tosses him off an eight-floor building and he survives. And Karen's like, how could you? How could you ah could you hurt the man that killed our friend? Devin, does he devin does he survive? Does Bullseye survive because of the surgery that was done on him before? don't know. They never really... i mean, we could probably just assume it helped.
01:10:04
Speaker
It helped, you know? The fact that people were actually like... The fact that the showrunners were actually trying to compare this to fucking to the fucking Penguin is like is insulting beyond everything. It really is. yeah everything Like, unbelievable ego.
01:10:17
Speaker
Unbelievable. yeah And they have the audacity to talk about like them to to you know to shit on the other guys, and they're doing the same thing. Like, granted, I did like the Frank and Matt conversation that they had, but it's more the same of what they were criticizing before, which they said they weren't going to be doing with this.
01:10:37
Speaker
But I don't know, man. I'm just Yeah, it's literally them in a room talking about what it is to be hero. Literally! And granted, it is good acting by both of them, that scene. So, like, I'm not gonna shit on them for it.
01:10:48
Speaker
But, like, why are you gonna why are you gonna try and drag the old guys, for the other guys, for doing the same thing? yeah And then you do it too. Maybe there's a reason they did it. Because these guys can yeah guys can talk to each other like both comment especially knowing that they had to like frankenstein a season together yeah no get the fuck out i feel like there's been a lot of good tv on too i almost know and chris is like but i almost wore i almost wore my penguin uh t-shirt to uh owen's t-ball practice
01:11:21
Speaker
ah And I was like, is this going scare the kids? Because they're they're just all they're all little kids. So maybe maybe one day I will. Because I picked it up and I thought about it because I was putting my clothes on for the practice. Kids love the pants.
01:11:38
Speaker
No, but like the shirt that you got me is just fucking face. It's just his gnarled ass face. Yeah, it's just his fucking face.
01:11:48
Speaker
So I'm like, you know i Maybe another day. Kids will love They love him. there's There's all the dolls out. The kids are going to the Toys R Us for the for the Oz Cobb. yeah Devin sent me this ah this hilarious clip of um it was it was the Penguin versus Kingpin playing tennis.
01:12:08
Speaker
Oh my god. It was so good. It's just this one guy who's doing two impressions, but they're so spot on. Yeah, like out of breath. Oh man, it made me miss Penguin so much though. Like that character is so unique and fun.
01:12:22
Speaker
I know. ah he's their thinking about They were thinking about casting Colin Farrell for something else in the DC Universe. What was it that I saw? Just make him everybody. i mean, it's hard not to love the Kingpin because of the performance that Vince and I. It's a phenomenal performance. But, like, the pathos of um of the Penguin. Chris, this was two weeks ago.
01:12:45
Speaker
This was two weeks ago, Chris, that they're trying to get Colin Farrell to be Sergeant Rock. And that Lucas is still doing Sergeant Oh, shit. I mean, the fact that but but wouldn't be like it i'm not um I wouldn't be mad at it because Colin Farrell wears a fucking penguin suit. So it's you can't even recognize him. Yeah, no, he's a great actor.
01:13:06
Speaker
It's just going to show how how like even more like how long his range is. Yo, but that's ranges. That's the twist at the end of the movie. That his name is actually Rock Cobb.
01:13:18
Speaker
Rock Cobb. He's one of the brothers that survived the um in the fucking sewer. Oh my god, dude. It's Rock Cobb.
01:13:29
Speaker
Rock Cobb,
01:13:33
Speaker
baby. Are you serious, though? like These guys are really trying to say that it's better than The Penguin. Get the fuck out of here, dog. There's so many better TV shows on this year than The Penguin.
01:13:45
Speaker
that's the thing. Like I'm having fun watching. And I wasn't, no, but yeah, but that's the thing. Like I wasn't like, I wasn't expecting this to be like, you know, like Emmy award winning, like stuff. Like I want, I just wanted it back, but I, I still want, if you're going to use born again as a title, like I'm gonna, my expectations are going to be pretty high.
01:14:07
Speaker
I'll, I'll be honest with you, John. I have kind of a love hate relationship with the Daredevil show in general. Like I, It's like I want it to be little weird. You want it to be good because it's Daredevil.
01:14:19
Speaker
And I always had an issue with A, some of the actors on it. I don't like how they split up the plot lines every season. It never worked right. You know what? I don't know. Fucking cancel cancel the Batman part two.
01:14:35
Speaker
Like, let's do a fucking heel move. Kevin Feige just pays Matt Reeves to... Gives him a blank check and says, hey, you you can do the Daredevil movie. And know what? Use Robert Pattinson, too. Fuck it.
01:14:50
Speaker
Because he would actually make a good Matt Murdock, too, I think. Oh, he would. know Robert Pattinson. Are you kidding me? What's his name? The guy who does the voice of Joel in ah Last of Us. Troy Baker. Troy Baker.
01:15:01
Speaker
Troy Baker's dream project is something with Daredevil. Oh, he's a huge Daredevil fan? He's a huge Daredevil fan. Of course he's a he's a man of
Daredevil Future Speculations
01:15:10
Speaker
culture. they didn't I mean, a Daredevil game would fucking slap, man.
01:15:16
Speaker
It would. your game But like, i I could kind of see him as you know, Matt Murdock, too. He's got fucking... Oh, like, right now? Yeah, yeah. I mean, I guess he might have to be young. He is tall as hell, you're right. He'd be towering over everybody.
01:15:31
Speaker
Hmm. I think that would actually, the the whole dodging mechanic in Batman Arkham Asylum works better as a Daredevil mechanic. Anyway. no yeah Yeah. There's apparently a mod for Sifu where you can mod in Daredevil as the main character. And people are like, this is the closest you can get.
01:15:51
Speaker
yeah I saw that with Art the Clown.
01:15:55
Speaker
I'm right there with you, bud. I'm right there. God damn it. On your level, bro. There was like there was like a PS2 Daredevil game that was like 80% done and then they just like dumped it.
01:16:08
Speaker
That's fucked up. They're like, eh, what are going to do? He's blind. He doesn't really have a... Maybe he does now. The show's really popular.
01:16:19
Speaker
yeah No, dude, a Daredevil game would fucking roll, dude. I'd be into it. I will say, kind of going to the the merits of the actual show that we that we got, i I do find it kind of interesting just watching Wilson Fisk try to be the mayor, though.
01:16:38
Speaker
like He's like, alright, what's the deal with this Muse guy? And you know it's just kind of like he's trying to figure out... He's doing a good job. Well, he's a villain.
01:16:49
Speaker
I know. think he's supposed to. And that's cool. That's fine. Like, i I like that aspect. Like, he's trying to play it straight and it's, like, not working.
01:17:00
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. He is legitimately trying. And now he he's just like, well, what if I just make a ah nightmare police force instead? It's like, okay. Okay.
01:17:11
Speaker
That's not a good idea, but sure. And also just him trying to get money from billionaires and they're just spitting in his face. you idiot That was a rough scene for the for the Kingpin fans out there.
01:17:26
Speaker
You know he wanted to... i mean Basically, he took all that out on what's-his-name in the basement with the axe. yeah Yeah, he did. Atul! He
01:17:39
Speaker
beat him like ah beat him up like he was a gorilla. He broke his he broke his fuck fucking pasta table, man.
01:17:47
Speaker
That's fine. I love seeing him go ham. It's like I'm... Yeah, but I also love seeing him eat, too. Well, I love seeing him eat ham. I love seeing him go ham. You know? that' I'm all about both.
01:17:59
Speaker
Dude, that's a fucking gym shirt. Eat ham, go ham.
01:18:04

And I like him but what popping out of the shadows too. he's he's He's on par with Batman and in that regard. yeah I'll be honest. If... if ah
01:21:18
Speaker
Yeah, this, this daredead, if this is real, this kind of makes me think, like, they'll just make him, it's like when he becomes the kingpin, like, he'll take over his kingpin, and that'll be his outfit.
01:21:30
Speaker
Yeah. is that what he's gonna do? He's gonna make I know. We'll see. He'll become the of the shadow. You know what? They should just make his suit say KP on it, then.
01:21:40
Speaker
Says DD. Oh, fucking KP? It's me? Well, he can't see. Maybe he thought it did. Yeah, yeah. Make it say KP. Ha ha ha. Hey, Belvin, can you make it say KP for me? Thanks.

Speaker
I'm okay. um yeah I'm not 100% on it. I fall neither on the yay nor the nay side of this. needs but He needs boxing gloves. give The show needs to just lean back into being dirty and gritty and feeling nasty. Again, I think it definitely like, guys, <unk>re you're getting two.
01:22:23
Speaker
Please don't worry about it. Just power through it. Sorry. Is Karen in Mexico almost be about to be assassinated yet? and But also, like, I'm kind of... It's kind of weird because, like, Elektra is apparently going to be in the next season, too. Oh, Shadowland... Yeah.
01:22:40
Speaker
Yeah. mean, sure. Devin's sounding more and more exhausted as he thinks about it. He's like, yeah, I guess that makes sense. Elektra shit just didn't work in... in Nope. However, you know, i did... i was reading some story about how, like...
01:22:55
Speaker
The Defenders was such a shitty show because of the, what the hell was it called? The the the committee. Remember like the MC? Oh, yeah. oh They were like, dude, they were killing us at every fucking turn.
01:23:15
Speaker
Like they they weren't allowed to do this or that or the other thing. And they were like, it was brutal. So not to say. Just saying, that's the one time we need a DEI. We needed Danny Rand not to be white.
01:23:28
Speaker
And they fucked that up. That's the one time we needed DEI. Oh my god. ah well Did you guys, anybody else, watch, play, see anything?
01:23:47
Speaker
You know, like i guys, I have a question for you. Actually, this was... I heard this question and I thought it was an easy answer, but then it drove me kind of crazy. So, you have one choice.
Philosophical Debates and Humor
01:24:01
Speaker
Would you rather never get hungry, never need sleep, or never get bored?
01:24:09
Speaker
Wait, say that again. So, you have... You could either never be hungry again... Never need sleep again. Or never get bored.
01:24:21

01:24:30
Speaker
yeah Sometimes I love sleep, man. I don't think you'd be a psychopath. I wouldn't want to... know you just You'd be on that grind set mindset. Dude, well that's the thing. like That means you don't like food.
01:24:42
Speaker
Steve gets up at 3.30 in the morning. At that point, you would just eat you would eat Things that that that just taste good for the taste of it. yeah The fact that you're not hungry, like you won wouldn't warp your... You would never need to eat. You could.
01:24:57
Speaker
You know then the natural state of human being should be almost at the point of starvation, right? That's the healthiest we can be. Really. It's like... you're saying that we all...
01:25:09
Speaker
we never got hungry again, we'd become like the WALL-E people. that We'd just keep eating even though we weren't hungry. I disagree just because I've never seen a shark with abs.
01:25:20
Speaker
Well, you listen, wes bro. Human beings need abs. That makes us run forever. The abs do not make you run forever. Yeah, a good core strength means you run really well.
01:25:33
Speaker
That's what we are. we're Terminators. So much of legs. Long distance runners. That's human beings. That's what we should look like. We should all look like those people you see win 5Ks that look like they have no more fat on their body. Are ones that have poop all over themselves? Yeah, dude.
01:25:49
Speaker
Seven hours. That is human beings at our best form. Those cavemen would do, dude. They'd shit all over themselves. Of course they would. of that saber-tooth tiger. I get it. Dude, come on never be bored. I'm telling you.
01:26:02
Speaker
never be bored you can do anything man anything that turns you into like an obnoxious person though like your personality would be you're never bored does that mean that you just stop being interested in things then like or that yeah you have no like hobbies you're just interested in everything i guess that's a good place to be in you're always learning something because you're Yeah, but like, would you even want to learn?
01:26:29
Speaker
we got like What are some of the boring things that like normally you would like pass on? Like that would you take for granted? You don't even think about that. You would now find some interest in is what you're saying.
01:26:41
Speaker
yeah Or it's like, what i what i try to like what what do you what do you guys do to not be bored? Well, I would also think it's like also the guy that's like, ah you know what, dude? Anytime, I just start reading a book.
01:26:54
Speaker
I just start reading a book about business. You know what? I'm going to retcon my answer. I'm going to go with never be hungry. Never be hungry or never be bored? is that what the options are? Never be hungry. never Never be bored. Never sleep. Never go to sleep. So I never need sleep, right? i Never get hungry, never need sleep, or never get so I can sleep whenever I want. I just never need it.
01:27:15
Speaker
Yeah. but Oh, fuck. Never need sleep. So you want to be insane? no no no no no no, no, no, no. You said i have the the rules are never go hungry. you know You never feel hungry, but you're still sustained. Yeah, yeah.
01:27:29
Speaker
So by that logic, you never have to sleep, but you're still sustained in some way. Yeah, but have you ever tried sleeping when you don't need sleep? It's pretty difficult. It's pretty difficult. I like sleeping. Like there would be points where i if I could treat it like a hobby.
01:27:42
Speaker
I can't remember the last time. i can't remember the last time. I didn't need sleep. If you didn't need sleep, you just wouldn't go to sleep.
01:27:54
Speaker
I don't know, but I think it would be your choice. It would be totally on your choice. Like if you want to sleep, you sleep. Like if you want to take a nap for a little bit, you take a nap. If you don't want to sleep for like a week, you don't have to. You're still sustained. I don't know if I've ever been able to just nap without being tired. Yeah, I need to be a little exhausted to be able to put myself down.
01:28:13
Speaker
I'm not one of those people who can just like lay down for like a 30-minute nap be back For somebody who loves sleeping, Chris, you're just willing to give that up, huh? No, I love and being able to choose. I feel like if I didn't need to eat,
01:28:26
Speaker
I'd have a better mindset. But I feel like times hunger hunger is the spice of life, Steve. No, no, I agree with you. But the thing is, it's easier to choose when you want to eat. Like, I could be like, well, I'm not really hungry. I don't need to eat. Like, that's kind well, I guess that's kind of exactly the same thing I'm talking about with sleep.
01:28:43
Speaker
It's the same thing. Like eating when you're not hungry and sleeping when you're not tired. Yeah, it's bored then. I'm back to bored then. do you imagine though? Like you never need to sleep. So you're like, okay, but then there's just entire chunks of days where just like you don't communicate or speak with anyone.
01:29:02
Speaker
Maybe. Maybe I get a lot done. you're kind of great no you're constantly in that state where you wake up before everyone had a fucking sleepover. Or like a party, and then you clean up. like Honestly, if I could go to the gym, do all my laundry, clean up my room, and then go to work.
01:29:19
Speaker
Oh, you're just that guy from the meme. It takes you forever to dive into a bathtub. Yeah, but that guy needs sleep. He's a fool for not sleeping. We didn't see him sleep in the video, so we don't know.
01:29:31
Speaker
He must go to bed at like 6 p.m. if he's waking up at 3 Yeah, he's he has to. See, that's the problem. I don't want to do that. um well i would love to do all of that grind life shit. I really would.
01:29:42
Speaker
i would love to read a book for an hour every day know chris and go to the gym. never be bored Wait, hold on. I would be the grind set guy. Does never need sleep tie into always having energy?
01:29:55
Speaker
Of course. It's the same way about not eating. You're constantly sustained in some way. okay You're like constantly running around like you just had like three cups of coffee. but you know Now you're adding addition things to it. No, no, no. It's not like you're – it's not – the question isn't like be always be height supercharged, right? It's just like you never need sleep. So you can get amped.
01:30:17
Speaker
You can. Of course. But I can't get pooped. You can't get pooped. Well, you could be tired in the sense of like... I'm like a day walker. Exertion. Yeah, like physical exertion. You get exhausted.
01:30:30
Speaker
But I skipped that part where I'm like, oh, man, i want to fucking nap. I need a nap, man. yeah But then it kind of... I think that would be your choice at that point, which is what I think is what I am talking about, is having the choice to sleep or not.
01:30:43
Speaker
I'm forced to sleep. All this tells me is that... ah We just love our weird, we need, even though it kind of sucks, like I love eating.
01:30:54
Speaker
Of course. I love sleeping. Of course. And never get bored. I just don't know if I want to be in that weird mindset. To be honest, Devin, I kind of like being bored every once in a while because then I think of things and I write them down and I'm like, oh, that's cool. Like my mind wanders. I like when my mind wanders.
01:31:13
Speaker
I don't hate it, you know?
01:31:17
Speaker
that's That's wrong. You would throw the monkey's paw into the ocean. If I'm never bored, I feel like I'd be one of those people, like, I'd be very hipster-esque in conversation, which is very think would be like, it's uncomfortable if you were never bored. Yeah, it's kind of like, that's like sociopath behavior. Yeah, that's like, you don't.
01:31:35
Speaker
You would become, Steve, you would become Fishtown Devin, what Devin would have said. If he stayed in Fishtown. It's like you would never really have an identity either because you would be constantly flipping from thing to thing. Yeah.
01:31:49
Speaker
and then you so hand I'm starting out a new business venture. It's really sick. It's like, I don't care, dude. Gross. Yeah, I'm selling bat blood to people. You know what you would be like? Remember that Chris Cooper's character in Adaptation? Yes! Oh, 100%. Yes. That's what a man who's never bored, because he's always jumping from one thing to another. Like, he was like, ah I used to love fish, got all these tropical fish, and then one day I was just like, fuck fish.
01:32:16
Speaker
fuck fish and he just started collecting mirrors yeah yeah i wouldn't want to know you dude that guy sucks yeah like never being bored makes me think i wouldn't have friends because they'd be like i don't he's too much yeah he's too much he'd be too much but i am i amped i mean you could be you could be amped and excited about things but there would be a point though where we would i wouldn't really we would all be really tired of hearing your new thing that you like.
01:32:47
Speaker
We'll be like, well, you know what? I'm glad you don't sleep, Chris. Let me explain it to you all night. Fucking shit. Cause I never get bored. I never get bored. So i'm I'm dumping my head into some water while you're talking. I don't even want to listen. honestly think like, yeah, you'd be like, I don't like play video. I just, I just don't have time to play video games. I'm just like, I'm always on the move.
01:33:09
Speaker
Always like trying to figure out, Or the board guy would like every video game. Yeah, and that's a problem, too. You would never, like, finish a game. Yeah, and you would never do anything, right? because if Because that would be really scary, too. Like, oh, I never get bored of video games. Like, what do you do? ah Dude, I played all of Final Fantasy Rebirth.
01:33:29
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah, you would have time to play all the games that are you won't like. And that's all you would talk about. I played an 800 hour RPG. Dude, never being bored sounds like if you got, it'd be like, uh, it'd be like those like stories about like love potions where it's like the first person you see.
01:33:47
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. First thing you would get interested in, Steve, that'd be it. Oh, okay. Well, that's what we're saying. I don't see how you wouldn't have attention deficit disorder. Oh, okay. But here's the thing.
01:33:58
Speaker
The last thing you ate is your forever state on where your stomach is. For the food one. Dude, egg whites. So you're saying the last time I slept would be how I would have be. Yeah, that's your resting state. Yeah. Well, that changes everything. That'd be rough, man. I didn't sleep well last night.
01:34:24
Speaker
Dude, I woke up obnoxiously early, considering I have no children. and it's suck i think I had a baby last night. Yeah? Out of my ass. Oh, an event.
01:34:36
Speaker
had an event, man. That wasn't fun. I felt like I was in labor. No, I didn't. Oh, i didn i know that's like I got drained in the middle of yesterday. Like literally like one of those, like where like, you're just like exhausted.
01:34:52
Speaker
You know what they say? Things happening. You know what they They say that's the change of weather. When it gets really hot, really fast, your body's metabolism speeds up in response. That makes sense. Cause tired I crashed at like 8 PM yesterday. i was like, I am so tired.
Tax Discussions and Financial Strategies
01:35:11
Speaker
Yeah. And then shit everywhere.
01:35:14
Speaker
In the toilet, right? I pooped everywhere I went to bed. You know what was funny? is i was like, Jenny went to sleep really early and I was like, dude, I might i might go to like a Taco Bell. Maybe I'll just go Taco Bell. I'll watch like three episodes of of yellow jackets.
01:35:32
Speaker
Dude, it was like 9.30 and I'm like doing the thing where I'm like snoring myself awake. one Watching the UFC fight. I'm like, I'm like, yo. Hell yeah. sucks. this Yeah, if you just tuned in, you're listening to three old guys.
01:35:47
Speaker
Yeah. Oh, come on, then old man. People are tired. People get tired. they got to work, Kevin. Kept me awake. Yeah. You got work. You got to work. If you're listening to this while you work, you got to work.
01:36:00
Speaker
You got to work. know what? Keep working. Pause it. Do your task. No, don't pause us. Come on. Don't pause us. Keep listening. pause You can do both. Do your taxes. You can do both. Do your taxes. gotta do money I mean, you do have to do your taxes. It's almost over. Oh, yeah. Everybody do their taxes.
01:36:14
Speaker
Everybody do your taxes. It's coming got to point where like... I have a bunch of mail that I can only assume has my tax stuff in it, but I haven't actually opened it. You got to do those taxes, Devin.
01:36:27
Speaker
I know. I don't want to. I hate doing my taxes. is I'm not going to lie with you guys. Dude. I don't like paperwork. I'm with you. you know i don't like getting asked the same stupid question by my tax lady.
01:36:43
Speaker
who's always like, you didn't do it again this year. And I'm like, no, she's like, you gotta do it next to year. you And I'm like, we both know I'm not gonna. Yeah. And then I have to pay her an obnoxious amount of money.
01:36:54
Speaker
Yeah. Dude. when I, when I was a contractor, independent contractor, you have to like file it for taxes every quarter. Are you sure? I didn't do that. 1099s, 1099s. I never did that for years.
01:37:10
Speaker
And I owed the government a good deal of money one year. And I was like, I did the like the TurboTax. I was just hitting a button. like oop And I was like, oh. Yeah. big number Did you do the thing where you're like oh, I must have missed. yes Oh, yeah. i went back few times. i was I think I was playing Borderlands 2 while I was doing it oh my god And I think I was like mid fight I was i had to put the the controller down And just like look like Oh that's real Oh no How do I solve this one How do I solve for you It was rough I never owed the IRS money um until that point And I think it kind of tarnished my experience With doing taxes Oh it's a dude it's fucking I have to pay the government every year now
01:38:01
Speaker
Oh shit, you're 1099, man. Well, no, I have a full-time job, unfortunately. it just puts them in the now I also Twitch stream. so Oh my god, I didn't think about that. They fuck me in the ass every fucking year now.
01:38:16
Speaker
Hmm.
01:38:18
Speaker
You know, you just got to stop Twitch stream. but I know. it Dude, it's that simple. it's So, like, do you take your return and pay your taxes for your Twitch stream? Dude, I don't get a return.
01:38:31
Speaker
You don't even get a return. I got $9 for that's my normal job. That's good. But then I have to pay $2,000 plus that.
01:38:42
Speaker
That's brutal. Yeah. That's the sound I make. Did you make... ja me and you mean Well, that's the thing. It's the same thing because it's to be quarterly.
01:38:54
Speaker
steve Oh, yeah. That's the thing. like dude Do you pay quarterly or no? No, I just do it once a year. guess normal thing to do is just maybe make ah make a bank account that's just for your Twitch money and then just don't touch that until the end until the end then you might have extra money. You would have to hold on to it. But then you just don't use it for the whole year. But I buy a lot of games on Steam. Gotta understand. Call your guy PewDiePie and just be like, hey, what do you do?
01:39:26
Speaker
I put it in Panama. Yo, Pewds, what are you doing? PewDiePie. Cayman Islands. Oh, you're playing play that PUBG? Oh, no, I don't want to be on your team. i don't be on that No, I don't play PUBG.
01:39:43
Speaker
Flub G. um Yeah, Steve, go invest your money in the Cayman Islands. You know what? going to start doing it fart coin. Fart coin. No taxes on spark coin. you one, I just sent you a fart coin. Hey, Steve, you know how you can get around that, actually?
01:39:56
Speaker
How's that? So, there's no taxes on items of value, like... Let's say you buy like a comic book. That's $2,000.
01:40:07
Speaker
yeah You can't be taxed that money through that item. It's a depreciable item. So technically speaking, if you were to take all of your Twitch earnings and invest it in like art, you would never have to pay taxes. All right. I hear what you're saying. I'm going to do it with Pokemon cards. you might feel I think that's how the Paul brothers do it, to be perfectly honest.
01:40:30
Speaker
That makes sense. Because um there was a billionaire or a millionaire. Call your best friend Jake Paul. Jake Paul, please. forgot his name. You know I'm not a Jake Paul guy.
01:40:42
Speaker
You're a Logan. you thinking The billionaire was Getty. Getty was the billionaire. No, not Getty Paul. John Jacob Getty. And yeah, he invested he put all of his money in art and never didn't have to pay anything taxes yep he would just sell art to buy things steve have you ever considered uh what it has this how does this work with nfts isn't that art i think so dude that's probably how it started to be honest yeah yeah 100 have you ever tried like the like write-offs like can't
01:41:18
Speaker
You'd be like, I got to write off all these games I buy for my Twitch. Actually, that's not a bad idea, Steve. Yeah, that's true. Any of your computer equipment, i don't know if that counts, but like that could be expenses you could deduct from your account. I'm i my own guy. I use the TurboTax. You got to go to an accountant, dog. You're at an accountant level now. I'm good, man. Don't worry about me.
01:41:43
Speaker
ah Yeah, I'm seeing my accountant next Saturday. I've been avoiding them just because I am too lazy to even see if I have to pay. Honestly, I don't make enough money to really an accountant. Yeah, me neither.
01:41:57
Speaker
I'm good. I'm fine. But if you got like 1099. and i not you If you have a wife. Yeah, if you have serious shit that John has or you're a 1099, you should consider going to an accountant.
01:42:10
Speaker
Yeah, because this is the thing. Because I sold – a couple years ago, i saw the I sold one of my lenses for like – $2,000 or something. And that was the year the government started cracking down on like crypto shit.
01:42:25
Speaker
Okay. So like any, any income like PayPal, like PayPal or like any internet income that you had that was over $600 like gets taxed.
01:42:37
Speaker
Right. who So I had to pay income tax on the the money that I made selling my land. So like when I was talking to my account about it, he was like, What was it I was like, it's just a fucking camera lens that I bought a few years ago for this much money, and I was able to sell it for more.
01:42:54
Speaker
And he was like, how much was shipping? How much was it worth before? ah How much... Yo, he probably got a boner. Where did you send it to? He probably got a boner when you brought that up.
01:43:07
Speaker
Well, yeah, because there's all these things that you could... I guess I didn't know, but like there's all these things you could deduct and claim. As um you can deduct from the income. So then you have to you get you pay less.
01:43:21
Speaker
So that, Steve, that's why you probably should see an accountant. Because then they can tell you, you know. cause term i mean, TurboTax, like, yeah. I mean, like, he he'll ask you a bunch of questions. And then.
01:43:33
Speaker
i know. I saw an accountant after that happened. Like, I had to. manage my payment, right? And they kind of righted the ship. Luckily, I stopped working at that company that was at 1099 at around the same time, but I still had to deal with the money and she helped she helped kind of guide me through a payment plan and lower the debt too. Yeah, because 1099, they don't tell you, but like if you're on 1099, they say like you should just you should have a savings account and you should put like 35%
01:44:07
Speaker
of what you make in there so that that will go to your taxes. And it makes some money. here Like it generates some interest. um mean yes so Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. But then it's it's hard because like it's like – You're going to go to jail.
01:44:22
Speaker
What's actually? PewDiePie and I are going to you? yeah I'll be honest. If you're into like, Steve, if you really want to get into fraud, think you're going to be in the clear. But I'm not into fraud. I know, but if you want to get into fraud, you're going to have a lot of options now.
01:44:35
Speaker
it's a good Yeah, it's a good time. Yeah, I guess you're right. I mean, nobody's really looking for it. I'm going to end up in the Oval Office by the end of next month. There you go. What am I doing here? Why am I signing stuff?
01:44:48
Speaker
Yeah, but like if you're if you sell stuff on eBay or something, and it's like over $500 or $600, you're going to get a tax form. that you're Oh, I've got to tell my mom that, actually. yeah you should Oh, she she she's been selling stuff?
01:45:00
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, is it has me one item, or is it like collectively? no like No, it's like they'll try like, because it's usually, they'll track on eBay, whatever you get paid on eBay.
01:45:11
Speaker
And then, like usually it's PayPal, right? And then PayPal will send you a tax form. If you made over a certain amount. Sure. and then And then you got to bring that to your accountant.
01:45:22
Speaker
So he can yell at you. And then ask you a bunch of questions that you don't remember about anything you sold. He wasn't yelling. He got really into that problem. Yeah, he got Matt Murdocked into it.
01:45:33
Speaker
He started shaking. 60 victims? Don't go out there, Matt. Don't go out there now.
01:45:42
Speaker
Come on, I know you don't wanna. He was in the zone when you were talking. He's like, you got in the zone. You got him into the zone with your tax problem. No, but he was he was essentially yelling at me for not keeping receipts for shipping and this and that because I didn't remember any of that stuff. That is true.
01:46:00
Speaker
But also, like, this was, like, crypto ruined fucking everything because it was never like this. I used to just sell shit on eBay all the time and then never worry about it because it's just eBay. But now, you know, you sell, you sell one thing.
01:46:14
Speaker
Meet up with a guy in front cheesesteak spot. Well, that's, yeah, that's why, i mean, that's why, and this is angelo's is it like, I'm in some, I'm in some like backdoor communities too now that like now people, like some people, like you have to generate like a presence in a community. And then like, because now people won't sell to you unless you only do PayPal friends and family.
01:46:39
Speaker
Which means that you're not covered. If you get scammed, PayPal won't cover you. Right. But also you don't have to pay a fee and you don't get taxed on it later. Dude. I think that's also why so many people have cash app shit nowadays.
01:46:53
Speaker
Yeah. Same reasons. And I see that more than debit cards now. Like people with like Venmo and shit. Yeah. Oh, cash app. Oh, cash app cards. Cash app cards. And like, yeah.
01:47:05
Speaker
That's the thing where I work in dispensaries. We can't accept those because they are part of the federal banking company. They have to track that money. And I guess is you can't really track it as well if you we use that.
01:47:15
Speaker
Yeah, not at all. it's It's shadow money in a lot of ways. You can get away with a lot of money laundering through Venmo. I got yelled at for not having Cash App. I was like, dude, I got Venmo.
01:47:28
Speaker
He's like, nah, I need Cash App. Nah, dude. Nah, because i don't want to get fucking taxed. yeah That's what it is. Sorry, dude. But it's also like you – if he scammed you, you know then you're fucked.
01:47:41
Speaker
You're basically fucked. Yeah, no're they're not regulated at all. And now, like if you want to – if I want to sell to somebody or I want to buy something – no, if I want to sell – if somebody wants to sell something on a backdoor market but they want to be covered, then the buyer has to pay extra on top to cover the PayPal fees.
01:48:06
Speaker
Of course. So now it's like, who's getting fucked now? You know, like, yeah. Plus then you're going to get taxed too at the end of it.
01:48:17
Speaker
So it's like, it's just like, I don't know, man. Everybody needs a cut. Cause I have a lot of, i have a lot of stuff that I want to put on eBay. But like after that, I'm just like, dude, I don't really want to fucking deal with that shit later. you know what else is great? I'll just i'll just hoard it I'll just hoard it. When you do end up paying all that, those tax money, you know it's going to the right place to Donald Trump's pocket and Elon Musk's pocket. Feels good, yeah. yeah Overall, like that's what you can take away from At least you're giving those guys some money.
01:48:44
Speaker
Well, you know who's not getting fucked right now? Game Informer, because they're back. Game Informer's back, baby! Let's go! Hey! Glad to see it. Are they making magazines again? Apparently they're getting the magazine back. yeah Wow. What a world. Seems interesting because I'm like, bro, that's why you guys went out of business in the first place. What a world.
01:49:08
Speaker
But Hatch is going to do website stuff. Like, what's the word?
Nostalgia and Gaming Reactions
01:49:11
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, listen, all I'm saying is That's nice. It's just a nice place to see. look If Daredevil can come back, we can come back. You know, I really look forward to Reach 40 and Steve's birthday. We go to his house and I have to take a dump and there's new gameformer magazines in there that I can read. Legend of Zelda movie scoop.
01:49:38
Speaker
du what a weird Austin Butler is a Zelda. you remember when like you just finally stopped reading magazines? like instead of like They would just pile up instead of you just rereading them. like As a younger man, i would read every magazine and I'd reread them until the next one. Devin, I think it ended it ended at cracked for me.
01:50:08
Speaker
Yeah, that was a long time ago. Man Magazine, yeah. but I'm just saying like like to the point where you would get the magazine and you're like, I know I'm not going to read this. Yeah, yeah. I would get Man Magazine sent to the house.
01:50:20
Speaker
Same. And then and they would just start piling up and i and like my dad or mom canceled immediately. Are you reading this? Are you reading this, Chris? I wasn't. Did you even did you even read the Jurassic Port parody?
01:50:34
Speaker
And they were angry, too. They were waving. Alfred E. Newman's face in my ah in my face. You know, this is not cheap. Sure, I know it says cheap in the corner. It's $5.99 now. Steve, you know how responded? know what I said?
01:50:48
Speaker
What? Me worry? Ah! He did
01:50:55
Speaker
All right. I would say, Devin, in response to that would be kind of when like news feeds online kind of came about is I was getting my news more directly. So like magazines, you know, where you got a monthly kind of it kind of became an outdated source to get like gaming and scoops on things.
01:51:12
Speaker
And then when Twitter like came to like the front of the so but bowl for news and information immediately. Dude, I stupidly got a magazine. i like i don't know why i did it. It was like one of those... like I had more money than sense at the time.
01:51:29
Speaker
And I was like, should i spend like $60 for a white dwarf subscription? And that is Warhammer 40 magazine. Of course. And I was like, should I do this? I used to read them all the time.
01:51:42
Speaker
but Hell yeah, brother. yeah brother i did it and I had 12 issues come to the house and I didn't read a single one. Hell yeah, brother. Classic Devin. Why'd I do this? Hell yeah, brother. Hell yeah, brother.
01:51:55
Speaker
That's how you do it, brother. There's a man you want to be, Devin. And you see that man. But it's hard to be that man. Sometimes what you want, the wish you want, is not the wish you need. If I was never bored, I'd read them all.
01:52:11
Speaker
Dude, you would. Honestly, see? i just don't sleep now. You'd be Mr. Warhammer. i mean mr I'd be Mr. Hammer, dude. Dude, you know how many miles you would paint if you didn't sleep anymore? yeah Oh, but you might get bored, dude. I'd be so bored, dude. I'll be 18 podcasts later. But if you never got bored, you'd be like... Is your painting?
01:52:35
Speaker
I'd be so sick at painting at that point. I'd be like, yeah, I'm the fucking best. But I might sleep all the time. And then Chris comes in completely well rested. These look like shit. but What are you doing?
01:52:47
Speaker
This is what you've been doing? Dude, we we all know I'd just be cranking. Your family's waiting out here. Yeah, you'd just be constantly masturbating in your basement. Cranking that shit nonstop, dude. It never gets boring.
01:53:02
Speaker
ah I'm just so into it, dude. That's the fear. Yeah. yeah That's a slippery hole to fall down. Yeah, it is. It won't fall down that hole. Oh, my God.
01:53:13
Speaker
ah what So, Steve. don't know why said it like that. ah There was a weird Nintendo Direct this week.
01:53:24
Speaker
There's a Switch 1 Nintendo Direct. This was stuff that they were just like... don't know. would It feels like they were like clearing a warehouse for like yeah game announcements. that with The new ones, it's like the 3rd or the 2nd or 3rd? It's Wednesday. the second it's yeah It's Wednesday. So like literally wednesday a week before the Switch 2 one, they dropped a traditional Switch Nintendo Direct.
01:53:50
Speaker
yeah And everybody went, why? Why? I was like, okay, well, what do you got? Yeah, what do you got? They had some things. There was some stuff. I'll tell you what, though, because you posted it as the top thing, which it should. Yeah.
01:54:03
Speaker
In my head, it should be bigger. I think this trailer was a stinker. It was a dud, huh? It was the Metroid Prime 4 Beyond trailer. wasn't really feeling it. You know why? Because it they didn't give it the gravitas it deserves. I know that sounds weird, but you know they had the guy who does the- They know we're going to buy it anyway. know we're going to just I mean, they're right. They're right. But the thing is, it's like, you know, you get the guy who's like, Samus is on a new planet and uses new psionic powers. And it's like you get a new psychopath. You're like, what? He's like, he can open doors. And i was like, o whoa, makes but that's crazy.
01:54:40
Speaker
Hell yeah, brother. What if you open doors with your hand or your rockets? Like in the not psychic powers is not cool. Yeah, like it I honestly like I saw this at first and I for some reason looked away. So I was like, oh, are they remaking two? Are they doing like a remaster of two? Like they did a remaster one.
01:54:59
Speaker
And then I was like, oh, this is for. Oh, yeah. did You know what? I think I kind of said it. ah was pretty succinct. I said this game will probably be very good. But this yeah, fucking stinker of a trailer. Yeah, no, I I think that's what it's going to be. It's going to be an awesome game when it comes out. But this is just.
01:55:19
Speaker
if it ah better who's got this on fantasy critic michelle i do you yeah i'm gonna make some money nervous after this trailer after seeing it uh not really no look i mean you got a date dude and it's coming out on both listen switch new switch listen listen man listen man i got i got fucking uh potential psycho nuke grand theft auto six on my fucking team this year so i got i got bigger fish to be worried about hey devin why don't you counter pick it yeah oh because listen yeah oh yeah why don't you counter pick it then you bitch counter bitch why don't you counter pick it bitch speaking speaking of our drafts mine's eye got a date it's good june oh that game that was i saw that spite counter pick from you
01:56:07
Speaker
who or from ah Or from Rain. i rain guy yeah guy who know Rain doesn't know shit. Oh boy, here we go. dude we do Dude could fucking fill up a toilet.
01:56:20
Speaker
He's fucking... No, he's feeling himself right now. What can he fill up a toilet with? I mean, he'd fill up a toilet and he'd look at it and be like, oh, this is good. man. Oh, this good shit.
01:56:31
Speaker
ah He could have an event. Yeah. He could have an event. He's like, oh, man, let's publish this.
01:56:39
Speaker
I'm kidding. I'm joking. That sounds like him. That does sound like him. um ah let me Let me get your opinion on this because I'm i'm considering i still have a counter pick that I can pick. um No, I said Chris. ah He's neutral player. I'm i'm um the outside perspective. no kind There's no conflict of interest here?
01:56:58
Speaker
ah Do you have any faith that the Dune Awakening game will be good, Chris? but that it look I'm licking my lips like Birdman looking at it on Stinn's roster here.
01:57:14
Speaker
Kind of want to counterpick it. You don't think it's going good? Do you think it's going to bad? Yeah. It's going to be a bad game. Yes. That's what my gut is saying. Like it's going to be a badly reviewed game.
01:57:25
Speaker
Yeah. Can I give you my my back-to-back winner? Yeah, sure, sure, sure. Yeah. At this stage, you want to go for something that... That might not come out. That's not going to come out that you can lock in so you can screw somebody or you know You go with something like a Dune MMO, but then you know you're probably are going to lose some points, but then you want to mitigate it, right? Like Adam Fall, for example, not a terrible counter pick.
01:57:56
Speaker
They only lost five points. So it's like, okay, you know you had to pick one. but i'd say there's no way There's no way that game comes out reviewed well, but it will be good at some point in the future.
01:58:09
Speaker
Yeah, but like even if – I mean that means it's going to be an 80 or a 77 something. But the point is, Chris, is like if it's over a 70, John will lose points, right?
01:58:20
Speaker
So you'd really be looking for something that's like a 6 out of 10. I'm just trying to find something that's not going to come out. I do feel like it will be 6 out of 10 when it comes out though. yeah and it will be Yeah, that's why I was asking. that's why i was asking You know what I mean? Like it will get slightly better.
01:58:35
Speaker
Am I in that Elder Scrolls Oblivion remake every day? I mean, I think... You're looking at it? and looking at it. I appreciate that the real... I think that there's going lot of movement after the Switch thing.
01:58:47
Speaker
because yeah The Dune game looks really boring. That's, from my for my gut response, that's kind of the way I feel about it. I think best case scenario for the Dune game, it it lands somewhere in like the mid-70s.
01:59:01
Speaker
and Yeah, best case. That's not good. Best case. That would probably be best case. Yeah, so like maybe... Yeah, Rise of the Hydra's already counterpicked. Yeah, I mean, I basically saved the rest of my slots for this fucking... Yeah.
01:59:18
Speaker
For this Wednesday, basically. ah dump I'm gonna dump my money. Well, what sucks is it's on Wednesday, so we we probably won't be able to put in picks until next week, right? Dude, we're going to see all the bids. Yeah, it's going to be fucking... Yeah, yeah it's going to get nasty.
01:59:36
Speaker
Yeah. Fuck. could counter what do you what do you say What are you saying? no i was guess i was also thinking Fantasy Life. Because that doesn't look good either. But yeah if it's what if it's incredible?
01:59:50
Speaker
You know? You know, i a John, to be perfectly honest, you could counterpick Mario Paint. i was I was thinking about that too, but if it comes out, what if it comes and i'm then I'm done i'm dead. this like I'm also in a spot where... I already put yeah i already put my risky my risky counterpick on the Donkey Kong. I'm also in a spot where like I'm going dump something I don't do some things. Is anybody here in crisis mode
02:00:24
Speaker
No. I would say Duke Crux. Yeah, that's... yeah and think he is Donzo because he counterpicked Avowed.
02:00:36
Speaker
had picked ah yeah He picked all the all the tight ends for the Eagles. um and just because Just because they're the Eagles. He'll have a solid like third yeah by the end of the year.
02:00:50
Speaker
He's got a commanding lead, but we got what? One, two, three. Half of his picks are already out. Yeah, but the thing is I still can drop.
02:01:03
Speaker
No, you can. can. But I'm just saying he's got gloves I can just throw off my hands. He has 67 points, and I think the next question is 36. Making an event?
02:01:15
Speaker
Yeah, of course. Yeah, dude, Rain's fucking lot shit. Anybody but Rain. He's beat by like 30 points right now. You know what? He thinks he's got me by the balls.
Console Speculations and Game Rumors
02:01:25
Speaker
what's projected But i think it's projected that really you should be looking at, not yeah mean actual points, right? well Either way. that doesn't mean Actual points doesn't mean anything. I'm telling you, though. I'm scared by Ananta.
02:01:37
Speaker
That one's got me worried. Listen to Sun Tzu, Steve. When an enemy makes mistakes, let him. Yeah, yeah. I'm just too afraid to counterpick anything fucking Rainpicks because he's got insider trading information.
02:01:52
Speaker
Do you want me to part up the year where he got three points again? like dude i'm thinking Dude, I'm thinking about that Elder Scrolls remake. I want to counterpick that so bad.
02:02:03
Speaker
think it's going to be bad Because it is coming out, apparently. It is allegedly coming out. That's so stupid, though. Is it Bethesda? yeah It's Oblivion, though. It's the best one.
02:02:15
Speaker
it is It's low-key better than Skyrim. Nah, nah, nah. The best one was the third one. What was that one called? Morrowind? Morrowind. It should have been a Morrowind remake. I mean, listen, polled if Legend of Zelda's announced Ocarina of Time remake, it's announced. do i think we I think we ban we banned Reign from the Discord server at that point, I think, right? Because...
02:02:36
Speaker
The only way he would have even known is inside a trade. john John and I looked at each other this week. We were like, oh, shit. Yeah, it might happen. might happen. If that happens and it's this year, I'm done.
02:02:49
Speaker
Like, I'm out. Like, ah there's no way going to Because if they're making a Zelda movie... like They might make it based off Ocarina Time. it No, it would definitely be Ocarina of Time. they they would They would do the same thing they did with the Super Mario Brothers movie where they released Super Mario Brothers Wonder the same year, same time frame.
02:03:11
Speaker
yeah This might be Inside Baseball this guy's using. Now that he's working with, what's his face, the the guy who did the other... Last of Us. yes plus yeah He's working with Cory Barlog himself.
02:03:24
Speaker
Yeah, he's working with the Barlog. What if we see Rain just drop fucking Last of Us 3 in here? and like Would we just call him out? Yeah, he's just like, hey, Last of Us 3. Oh, you know. really You know now. Yeah.
02:03:35
Speaker
I got feared about this one. Actually, you know, this could be Uncharted uncharttered remake or some bullshit. Because I will say, the cope here that I have is Silksong. Everyone's just, they're like, it has to be at the Switch 2 announcement.
02:03:51
Speaker
They have to announce it there. And if it is, I'll and i be yeah i'll be in 90 territory. most But if not... but if But also, they could announce Ocarina of Time Remake for 2025. And I'll open up my veins. don't think they're going to announce anything that's not um first party. Yeah, yeah they're not going announce Hollow Knight. Can we go back to the... John, you posted something in the game chat.
02:04:20
Speaker
by Wario64 and it made zero sense to me. And I'm not saying like... oh boy is it that weird cuphead picture that I was laughing at? I don't know.
02:04:34
Speaker
They both look like Steve. They both look like Steve O'Tier. He was fucking dying. Yo, Chris, he was fucking dying and he kept making me pull it up so he could laugh at it again.
02:04:45
Speaker
And he was so excited, he went and showed Sam it, who obviously didn't think it was funny at all, because it's not really funny. It's kind of funny, I don't know. i mean, I don't understand why, like, I kept asking why it's so funny, and he couldn't tell me, he just kept laughing at it. i mean, hey. hit said It's just a weird look.
02:05:03
Speaker
Cop-headed Mugman. No, shut up. John, I found i found it. is a award What is it? What I say? It said, Insider Gaming reports Switch 2 releasing in June with a three-phase strategy approach.
02:05:13
Speaker
ah with the the dev kits are going out now first party launch phase two third party titles october november dev kits expected in june which makes no fucking sense to me whatsoever because it's like well what do they need do they need dev kits for um i'm pretty sure you need any console for any console right any new console like to make a video game yeah would they need a Would Rockstar need here's a question would rockstar need ah ah a Switch 2 dev kit to make Red Dead 2 for Switch 2?
02:05:47
Speaker
Yeah, I think... i mean i Listen, I don't know how to make games, but it seems really important that you have a... Well, why don't you ask the expert, Rain, who knows everything? Yeah, you should. He she does.
02:06:00
Speaker
Yeah. But yeah, I mean, dude, Wario64 tweeted it. It's true, alright? That's just how it is. I'm sorry. sorry, Devin. yes i'm sorry devin but So third phase – so wait. So the article – you said the article.
02:06:15
Speaker
yeah first phase. You read the article. Yeah. It said June is the when dev kits are going to be going out. All According to sources, is the second stage will arrive in October November for third-party studios, many of whom are expecting the dev kits for the Switch 2 to be sent in June.
02:06:31
Speaker
Well, it doesn't say all of them. know. It just says many. like But like isn't that how we got like pretty much roughly – the leak for the switch to in the first place? Cause no, no. Well, i these were like, we 3d printed it.
02:06:45
Speaker
This is what it were they were the well that well was. They were showing, and that was the case. It did breath of the wild behind scenes at like the e three No, because yeah, I think that, I think what, what you're, what we're understating here, or what what we're not looking into to account is that they're really going, I think,
02:07:02
Speaker
this console is really going to lean on the backwards compatibility with Switch 1 games. For sure. It's just like... right ah The new Xenoblades X remaster that they put out, apparently it has a secret ah hidden 60 frames per second mode that they don't know what it'll unlock, which probably, yeah, Switch 2.
02:07:24
Speaker
yeah Yeah, so you might not need a dev kit for that stuff, you know? yeah But, like, maybe for all the all the new Switch 2 only games... will need a a dev kit, but maybe they maybe they weren't... Maybe their cycle isn't to just have all these titles be for Switch 2.
02:07:42
Speaker
in the first six months of it coming out. That's probably why they did this, is to be like, right, here's a bunch of... Like, the Switch still has a future, so if you're not going to be getting a Switch 2 at launch, but also, you know, they're going to want to have people go nuts for the Switch 2, because they've spent an entire year and a half just making more consoles, because it was supposedly supposed to come out last year, but they were like, we want to make sure we have, like, 2 million-plus consoles.
02:08:07
Speaker
Yeah, I'm still like... It depends on how Wednesday goes. i Sorry. What? Chris. I was going to say, but I don't... I'd say something, John, if you want to take a look at the game. Let see.
02:08:21
Speaker
But I just don't... I don't know if I'm going to get one I want. Is that Miss Chalice? Why does Miss Chalice look so weird? He's got that face, man. ah Weird fucking Chad face? how you doing Show Owen that. um love me know I'll let him go. Where did you find that?
02:08:39
Speaker
it's i was looking for weird Cuphead faces and it's just called Man Face. google Oh, it's Cuphead Man Face? I think so. come yeah what i'm saying like It might be sacrilege, but like I don't even know if I'm going to guess which two at launch.
02:08:53
Speaker
like If it's just I don't know, man. ah John. don't know. Super Mario Odyssey 2. Super Mario Odyssey 2. and I don't think that's... If that's a launch title, yeah, for sure. i'll sell I'll sell my fucking kidney for that. My kidney that doesn't even... That barely works anymore anyway.
02:09:08
Speaker
I'll sell that for $300 and get get a Switch 2. But I don't think that's going to a launch title.
02:09:16
Speaker
But what if it is Donkey Kong? What if it is Donkey Kong? If it's Donkey Kong Country... I mean, what if new Donkey Kong? New Donkey Kong. I don't know. Cause like, here's the other thing, Steve.
02:09:29
Speaker
When, um, when the switch one launched, what were the, what were the switch one only titles? Uh, at launch, it was a just breath of the wild.
02:09:41
Speaker
No, it wasn't. Cause that you could play that on, um, you play that. Oh, switch only. I'm sorry. Switch only. Yeah. Switch only. Yeah. Were there any,
02:09:52
Speaker
no So maybe, so Devin, maybe there is some substance to the, to this, to this fucking, um, to that insider gaming article. Oh man. Maybe there is something to it. And that's the thing. Like if they're, if they're breath of the wild for switch two is going to be Metro prime four and they're just banking on that.
02:10:10
Speaker
Just, you know, being the, the, the title for the, for the game right now. Like it's worked for them in the past. Right. So it's like, no, it's going to be a, well, I mean like, yeah, you can play Metro prime four on your, so on your switch one, but,
02:10:22
Speaker
It's not going to be 60 frames. I think we're going to see a Mario Kart at launch. I think that's going to be... I think that's... Yeah, i mean, that' that's probably the shoe-in. but they they saw the They saw the sales that it did for the Switch, and they went, okay.
02:10:35
Speaker
we They don't even have to look at the sales. Isn't that Mario Kart the best-selling game series of all time? Mario Kart's the best-selling game series of all time. Are at 10? Would that be the 10th one? No, 9. It would be 9. 9, yeah. Oh, so...
02:10:48
Speaker
ah so ah Oh, man, so it's not even going to be cool, like Mario Kart X? They can't even call it Mario Kart X. Well, to be fair, the Switch one was 8 Deluxe. MKX. So that was like kind of like a semi-9, because it was just like a better version. No, it's still 8 now, but it's still 8. MKUltraX.
02:11:05
Speaker
You see, they fucking they put the T-1000 in there, man? What? In Mortal Kombat? Oh, I saw that, Steve. I saw his Fatality. Fatality's awesome with the fucking truck. Yeah, dude, that is really cool.
02:11:18
Speaker
Yeah, so if it's like, if the if the launch titles for Switch 2 exclusive are Mario Kart 9, it's probably going to be Mario Kart 9 and like Pokemon. Well, and no, Pokemon probably will come out from Switch 1 too, right?
02:11:32
Speaker
Yeah, but because it was at this press conference. the yeah pokemon and yeah that Yeah, so that's, dude, there's not going be any games. It's going to be like, it's going to be Red Dead 2. It's going to be Red Dead 2, Devin.
02:11:43
Speaker
Like, that's going to be the only Switch 2 only title to get. It's going Red Dead 2. and Mario Kart 9. That's it. So, like why would like, why would I break my back? Why would I break my back getting in online queues on websites on my phone to try and get one of these? I'm so waiting for you to be like, I fucking need one! No, but I mean, I was kind of like this with the Switch 1, too, and then Sam ended up just buying it for me.
02:12:13
Speaker
So it's like, Granted, ah bought her an engagement ring. yes But like, you know what i mean? Like, I was the same way. I wasn't really... No, I remember. Dude, you were... yeah i wasn't I'm not getting one of these.
02:12:28
Speaker
Yeah, was like, I'll wait. I'll wait a little bit. And then you and me showed up, showed up like like, together. we we touched a switches together. Yeah, you toasted them. think i was good i think i was gonna I think I was actually planning on getting Breath of the Wild that day for...
02:12:44
Speaker
For my Wii U? Oh no, I already bought it. already bought it for Wii You were, but you felt so... You were like, dude, I'm holding a turd right here.
02:12:56
Speaker
What? is the pauper's version. Yeah, I mean, we'll Maybe the FOMO will get to me, but like... I don't think it's the FOMO. I think you're going to see Mario jump out of another sewer and you're going to lose your shit.
02:13:09
Speaker
No, but then but no that's the thing. If it's Mario Odyssey 2 or Mario Galaxy 4 or whatever, or Mario 64, Mario 64, yeah, um auto auto Auto Day Zero if it's Mario, right?
02:13:21
Speaker
Yeah. But like if the the if the only thing we see is like, you know, i don't even know. like If it's Breath of the Wild and 60 frames, like I don't know if that's worth it for because I don't want to play that game again.
02:13:34
Speaker
i don't want to play that game from zero again. I think we're just going to have it like transfer over. I don't think it's going to be. Oh, it's not even going to be a thing. I think it's just going to be like an upgraded version because we're playing it on the kingdom with DLC.
02:13:47
Speaker
I want to be honest with you, Steve. I think your interpretation of what the new Mario is going to be is is off. Yeah. Yeah. what's like what do What do you got? Oh, it's going to be a courtroom drama where Mario sits in on his brother's Luigi's murder trial.
02:14:01
Speaker
And he's like, you know, he's like... Deny, deny, dispose. And he really... Of course. That's exactly it's going to be. And he... fell into He fell into a trap where he learned too much about the KKK and then decided that he wanted to join them.
02:14:15
Speaker
Mario goes full right-wing Luigi's. I mean, he does wear a red hat. What do you think is going to on that hat in the next one? wow
02:14:28
Speaker
Just wait. Ugh. All right, all right. Let's get back on the task point. If it was called Super Switch 2, I'd be day zero. One Switch 2 announcement prediction.
02:14:47
Speaker
My prediction? No, here's my prediction. what It's not going to OLED. And that's another thing that I'm thinking about in the back of my head that that deters me from getting it. day one Switch too as well.
02:14:59
Speaker
Yeah, i I agree with you. I think they're going to know it's not going to OLED, right? Splatoon 3 Bukaki Edition. Marvel vs. Capcom 4 exclusive.
02:15:11
Speaker
ah Yo! Nintendo Switch. That would actually break the internet. We're getting their Donkey games. I mean, we're not getting it or Devin. Can you let it go? it is. It is. It is curious why Donkey Kong looks like that.
02:15:23
Speaker
It is curious. Why is that? Yeah. What's the deal with that? Why does he look like that? Why? Why is did they just open up a Donkey Kong section of the theme park? Huh? I think we're going to Ocarina of Time. I'm posting something for you, Devin. No, Devin, I'm not trying. I'm i'm saying, like, legitimately, they're going to be, like, here and watch this.
02:15:44
Speaker
And it comes out October. Oh, my God. Oh, that would murder me. Oh, here's my prediction. 7. well here oh here's myitionion ah sieve seven coming out no i'm serious i'm serious i'm serious no i think you're i think you're right i think probably i'm not able to play it on a rooftop steve steve you laugh at me but i'm actually serious because that's a game that like you could run on steam deck that just came out this year that's going to be popular like anything that that steam deck verified i think from this last year or last six months or so are going to be a launch title on switch 2 because i think that's what they're going for
02:16:21
Speaker
Resident Evil 9. What else? What if they announce Resident Evil 9? They're going to announce Mario Paint. ah That's the dream. That's the dream. if it's Even if – okay, here here. I'll make my my blood oath now. Even if Resident Evil 9 isn't day one – a day one exclusive, if they just announce it at on Wednesday, just announce it, oh, or it's coming out January, yeah i'll buy I'll buy Switch 2 day one.
02:16:46
Speaker
and They just an announced it. Even though you wouldn't play it on the Switch. Even though I'll buy it on PC when it comes out. I'll buy it on PC when it comes out. I'll still get a Switch 2 on day one out of respect.
02:16:59
Speaker
Leon and Jill are eating pie you a cafe together and Leon looks at the camera and winks. Oh. Because he's the Green Goblin. Oh, no!
02:17:11
Speaker
didn't see that coming. Yeah, Resident Evil 9. So good. you Speaking of... Split Fiction. Here's the titles that are coming out.
02:17:22
Speaker
These are going to be the launch titles for Switch 2. Ready? Are you ready, guys? I'm ready. Red Dead Redemption 2. Hold on.
02:17:33
Speaker
I just had a list in my face. Red Dead 2. Split Fiction. Baldur's Gate 3.
02:17:39
Speaker
but fiction as a person balder's balders gate three Hades 2 are going to be the Switch 2 launch titles. And then Metroid Prime 4 Beyond.
02:17:51
Speaker
Even though that's not really exclusive to to Switch 2. That's going to be the... And Mario Kart 9. Did you get that? Chris? Write it down. Write it down. on right rate right yeah it was so down ready Somebody has to write this down in in shit talk or something. Split split Fiction, Baldur's Gate 3, Red Dead 2, Hades 2.
02:18:13
Speaker
Wait. the Hades 2 what was the other one red dead and uh Mario Kart 9 and red dead 2 yo what if yo dogs but I'm scratching my I'm scratching my chin right now curiously yo what if the move this whole time was Rockstar just wants to release the GTA 6 trailer on Wednesday with Switch 2 just to just the fuck with the internet that'd be hater no i I remember they they originally did the Red Dead 2 release announcement around the same time the Switch 2 teaser dropped I heard at Rockstar say they they're not releasing the trailer until it's like 3 or like a month out they're waiting on the marketing until it's at the very end
02:19:08
Speaker
of the so they're they're edging they're edging us 100 and a lot of game companies are scared they don't know there are show every ball gonna me dude you know what you gotta you gotta to you gotta like you gotta marvel at something like that when you got balls that big
Digital Sharing and Game Announcements
02:19:24
Speaker
right to be like we don't even need the marketing because the fear in the other developers hearts right now is enough marketing that we can just wait it's really that's insane dude
02:19:39
Speaker
Yeah, they know what they're doing. That's insane. All right. I want to rocket fire through some of these ah announcements at this ah Switch 1 event. And I'll just, yeah, I'll give you some some quick thoughts. We were talking about Metroid Prime 4.
02:19:50
Speaker
um The Pokemon Legends ZA, I think it's going to be an awesome game, but it visually looks bad ah because Game Freak doesn't know how to make non-mobile games. Game Freak!
02:20:01
Speaker
Here was one that I was super excited for, and then they decided to show me that it was a 2026 game, and that's Rhythm Heaven Groove, because I really like those games. They're cute. They're fun. so They're very silly.
02:20:12
Speaker
um They also talked about how they're doing Nintendo Switch virtual game cards. so Yeah, so you could like let people borrow your game. or so Yeah. It sounds like they overcomplicated but I guess it's only matters if you have like two or three switches in the house.
02:20:31
Speaker
Yeah. I know a big thing was they were talking about how multiple people bought multiple switch consoles. So I think they wanted to try and go about like being more like, Hey, you should like put people on your family plan. So you could like send people your digital games.
02:20:50
Speaker
Um, you know It's definitely a little bit convoluted. um apparently Real families real family buy i them for each of the siblings. That's that's just how it is. after pay go that's You to do it.
02:21:02
Speaker
I mean, I'm sorry, but like, you know. you're playing multiple consoles, yeah, but also, like, if you're, I mean, I don't know, this might be fucking Cope, but like, if you're, if you have a household and you're, like, there's brothers or or siblings that, or brothers and sisters or whatever that have their own consoles. like I think digital transferring digital game cards with but time constraints is like not it. Yeah, you're going to have to buy them both still.
02:21:31
Speaker
Yeah, just buy them both anyway. like let them Let them cry, Nintendo. I think this is this is a little... it's the people that don't it's the people that don't have to do that that have problem with it.
02:21:43
Speaker
it's And they're complaining about it. That's what it is. Yeah. you know, this is how they sell you an OLED, John, where it'll be like, Oh, you bought a switch to well switch to OLED comes out this year now. So now you have two, so you could like, you know, you can, you kind of have to, you can, if you're like, you're switching the bathroom. Ha ha ha.
02:22:03
Speaker
Um, but it is unless they're like, unless they're getting rid. Are they getting rid of physical car, physical? No, no. I think this is just, they're trying to figure out how to, it's just a waste of time and resources. I think like to do, to worry about this. It's, it's confusing. Cause also, yeah. Cause also like the households that do that, they don't just buy digital games anyway. So it's like, they're probably just buying cartridges and they just transfer them over.
02:22:29
Speaker
Yeah. Anyway, you know, I don't, I don't know. I think it's a waste. I'm curious to see if, like, you know, like, the things we could put each other on a family plan. And, like, if that would be allowed and if you can, like, play around with that. yeah I think I'm still on John's family plan.
02:22:45
Speaker
Yeah, you're on mine. Yeah, Devin's mine. John, give me a game for two weeks? Week six. yeah hey let me get back in the wild no man hopefully they don't go hopefully they don't go the fucking spotify route did i tell you guys about this no what's that my mom has been on my spotify family plan for like the last like don't know seven years or whatever yeah and now they took they they removed her without telling me why because we don't live because we don't live in the same house oh that's fucked up that's stupid dirty It's fucking Spotify, dude.
02:23:18
Speaker
They're like, oh, your IP address isn't the same. Yeah, I'm paying all this fucking money to you so that I can have three people use the same account. Like fucking chill out. Like it's not like it's not like Netflix where I'm paying for one account and sharing it across. you know I mean, granted, that's still they should still allow you to do that.
02:23:35
Speaker
But like. It's a fucking family plan, like let it be a family plan and let my mom live fucking five minutes from me and still be on it like it's so dumb. The thing about this is if you want to share, like do the thing with the family plan, you actually have to have the switches next to each other.
02:23:52
Speaker
Oh, you got an NFC top touch the tips. Yeah, but it's just for the family plan sharing. The other stuff I think you can just kind of like you have to be connected online, but I don't think you need to touch tips for like your console for your primary to your secondary. But I think if it's like people on the family plan, you need to touch tips.
02:24:12
Speaker
they announced They announced the new Tomodachi Life, and I got excited for this um because it's their silly game where you have your Miis run around and do like little little like living in the same town, and they have like little cinematics, and it's cute, it's silly, and they made it a 2026 game, so fuck me again.
02:24:32
Speaker
Get that Tomodachi out, guys. lie Apparently it's Tomogachi Tomodachi Oh yeah yeah the so this is a different thing This is the No the guy kept saying Tomogachi Wait it's not Tomogachi That's what I thought it was The whole time yeah I mean, that guy could be wrong. Fuck that guy. I don't know him. Alright. I got the news tied already. I'm going to just go through the... They announced everybody's golf hot shots is coming, but it's also coming on PC. I'm actually pretty excited to play this on Steam Deck. Yeah, that's cool.
02:25:06
Speaker
like yeah I'm like... i thought i was drunk People thought I was in there, but I'm actually having... It's a fun series. I thought you were making joke. No, I wasn't, Chris. You might like the game, too.
02:25:16
Speaker
Maybe I'll buy it for you. Okay. If it's cheap. They're doing some monument valleys. Can I wishlist it? Yeah, you can wishlist it right now. Because I loved Hot Shots Golf on fucking on my PS3. Was that PS3? PS4. Or p s four or it might have been PS3. I don't know.
02:25:36
Speaker
It was a PS3 game, I think. Rift of the Necrodancer coming to Switch. course. Greatest Origins for all you shmup fans.
02:25:46
Speaker
Eternal Life of Goldman, which is like this weird um indie version of DuckTales, it looks like. Because he's got the little pogo cane. Witchbrook, which is like they're doing um ah Harry Potter, Hogwarts, but as Stardew Valley.
02:26:08
Speaker
So it's like witch school. Wait, whoa, whoa. What is that? Witchbrook? It's Stardew. a wizard school. Oh, shit. Yo, don't tell Sam. Oh, Sam. Yeah, this is going to crack for Sam. wow Dude, no. I just convinced him to play Split Fiction with me this weekend.
02:26:24
Speaker
Well, no. This isn't coming out for a bit. This isn't coming out for a bit. So it's going to be winter holiday season. That's going to ruin our marriage, Steve. How dare you?
02:26:33
Speaker
Chris, look at this. You don't want to play this game? She's pointing at your birdie, and she's... She's shaming you about it. Shadow Labyrinth. um um know the the the The only important thing is nothing because there wasn't anything here. That Marvel game.
02:26:49
Speaker
The Marvel game does look cool. I'm hard into. and That's awesome. The notable thing here is it's by the guys who did the the Ninja Turtles. yes game Side-scrolling beat-em-up?
02:27:00
Speaker
Yeah, and it's... It basically is like they shrunk down the MVC characters, and that's like their movesets, but it's a side-scrolling beat-em-up.
02:27:12
Speaker
And it looks awesome. this is This is a must-have. Does it look better than Terminator 2? Yes. Yeah, it does. i shut it It's in shit, so you click it. It looks...
02:27:26
Speaker
No, I'd rather not waste my energy. I'd rather not have something playing on the background. Alright, let's rocket through some of these two. Let's see. Game-wise, I think that was it.
02:27:37
Speaker
Cristiano Ronaldo's in Fatal Fury. yeah Why is this? i don't want I don't want talk about this. Who's he going to be? He's going to be him. He's him he's just in he's himself. oh oh And he's got a little Hadouken soccer ball he kicks at you.
02:27:54
Speaker
So, you know. That makes sense. i think it's this yeah i think it's where I think it's the Saudis. Saudi They own Yeah, they own a majority stake of And and and he played any place for the saudis so oh e
02:28:17
Speaker
What
Film and Marvel Event Discussions
02:28:18
Speaker
we got? Let's see. We got this trailer. Chris, you posted this one battle after another. New Paul Thomas Anderson film, baby. It's got Leo Dio in it.
02:28:29
Speaker
Got Leo Dio. Johnny Greenwood doing the score again. It's got Benicio Dio in it. A lot of lot of good of good actors. This is probably going to be pretty great.
02:28:40
Speaker
so I'm excited. This thumbnail kind of looks like you, Chris. Are you Leonardo DiCaprio? That's I liked it so much. I'll be honest. I thought it was sh like I was listening to it before I like watched it and I thought it was Shia LaBeouf.
02:28:54
Speaker
I was like, why is Shia in this? It's funny, too, because you say that. Then in the trailer, Leo kind of looks like fucking Mel Gibson at one point. His face is like changing in like different frames of this. It's kind of wild. I'm like scrolling through. I'm like, oh, OK. Yeah.
02:29:10
Speaker
It's apparently about a a terrible rebel who's just been part of one bad, like one rebellion after another that's failed. And partially it was his fault.
02:29:22
Speaker
ah That's funny. That's a good concept. And I think his wife is like very capable at being a rebel. And he's like desperately clinging on to her.
02:29:33
Speaker
She actually knows what she's doing. cool i do not know this fucking password he's like a complete mess in this yeah uh pretty great yeah i i hope it's good isn't it it's based off this guy who's this guy's done novels and wasn't thomas pinchon yeah aren't his channel kind of like and the movies based off his books are yeah really hard to parse through aren't they well apparently this is his most accessible book because i've read i tried to read gravity's rainbow
02:30:06
Speaker
And the other film that he adapted. I can't remember. It's not my head. But those those books are impossible. Inherent Vice. Yeah, that's the thing.
02:30:17
Speaker
I don't think I ever tried watching Inherent Vice. I don't know. It could be good. It's just as confusing as the book. It's perfectly adapted. of Yeah, there it goes. Wait, what were the other books he wrote group that they did movies on?
02:30:32
Speaker
Um. I don't know. i don't know if they really did a lot of movies other than Inherent Vice I could think of. Gravity's Rainbow would make a hell movie. But it's just incomprehensible.
02:30:46
Speaker
It's about a... Von Braun launching bombs into England and the Gravity's Rainbow is the trajectory of the the bombs as they fall on London.
02:30:57
Speaker
Okay. Sick. Yeah. ah All right. All right. Let's finish it out on this. ah Marvel announced every reveal from a five-hour live stream of the Avengers Doomsday Cast.
02:31:13
Speaker
Bold to think you still that much sway. Look all those chairs. The only notable thing, don't want to say the only, but the biggest thing that I took away from this is basically everybody from X2 is coming like Gotta bring him back. Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Ryan Cox.
02:31:33
Speaker
He's dead, sorry. James Marston. You're an animal! Not Wolverine. Remember? Not a Spider-Man. Yeah, you're an animal. yeah Well, they said they said they didn't announce all the names, right? Also, I mean, listen, this is part one, right?
02:31:48
Speaker
You think Spider-Man in coming first? This part one the chairs? No, there's going to be more chairs, man. Wednesday and then Secret Wars is the other Avengers movie. many of these people are dying off? Are the movies the chairs?
02:31:59
Speaker
Yeah, each one, chair is going to be a movie. Yeah, Steve, that's what it is. The movies are the chairs. That's kind of avant-garde. It's a new direction, right? Postmodern. Yeah, DC sticking with normal movies. Nah, not Marvel.
02:32:14
Speaker
Chairs are the movies now. Cool. You buy yourself a nice nice movie to sit in. Yeah, there you Sounds great. Buy myself fucking... Who's your... What name did you pop for, Devin?
02:32:26
Speaker
Yeah, we where were where were you jerking off when you came? ah I'll be honest, none of them... Because it's like, of course they're going to be in it. I guess I'll say this.
02:32:38
Speaker
I was very surprised. i was most surprised by Alan Cumming, I guess. Of course you pop for Alan Cumming.
02:32:47
Speaker
But it's like, listen, he's going to be CG. They're all going to die off. They're going to get fucked. You can't do this and expect anyone to have more than like fucking three minutes of screen time.
02:32:58
Speaker
A lot of dead bodies. Which might be cool. This doesn't make me think, oh my god, this is the greatest movie of all time. This makes me go, oh, this is gonna... like There's gonna be fucking... gonna be a three hour long movie and everyone's gonna have five minutes of screen time.
02:33:14
Speaker
That's cool. It's not terrible, but... you marvel meat It's just a five hour live stream. Like, fuck out of here, dude. Stop. Did you have... ah god Oh, go ahead. Oh, was going to say, did you watch the episode Daredevil with Kamala Khan's father in it? I did. you know that was Kamala Khan's dad? du i There's a Funko Pop.
02:33:35
Speaker
Of course I knew. can I tell you? You know what? I don't think they said it enough.
02:33:41
Speaker
Kamala, your daughter. Kamala. You nailed that enough for me. not the best that's your daughter That's your daughter, right? Kamala? Yeah, you keep talking about it. Say help. Maybe we'll have dinner with your daughter, Kamala. I can't wait to have dinner with you and your wife and your daughter, Kamala.
02:33:57
Speaker
The best part was that like he's like, oh, ah the old guy's not going to be here. I'm taking over for him today. And then it's like a slow pan up to this guy, and I'm like,
02:34:09
Speaker
Okay, like, who is who is this guy? And then he starts talking, and he brings up his daughter 17 times. I'm like, oh, okay. Wow, they really expected me to have, like, a fucking, like, a Daredevil the Spider-Man movie moment?
02:34:22
Speaker
Where I'm like, it's supposed to applaud? Woo! I applauded, but then I hated it. I was like, i because I can't stop from clapping. I'm clapping to drown this out!
02:34:34
Speaker
Well, it's because, Chris, you're just never bored. so you're just I'm never bored! I watch terrible movies, and I'm never bored not once by it. Not at all. i Every movie kept me engaged.
02:34:45
Speaker
love it. I gotta go to bed, though. i love it. Yeah, gotta go bed too. ah Yeah, that's pretty much it. i don't think there's anything else worth it. Nick Frost, Hagrid, Harry Potter.
02:34:58
Speaker
The only bit of casting that no one can get mad at. Yeah, that's really good casting. Even though he like lost all the weight. John Lithgow says he's going to coast through the Harry Potter series. This an easy mode.
02:35:11
Speaker
Oh, ah by the way, sorry. Very last second update. I asked Rain, I said, Rain, how important is it to having access to a dev kit to making a video game?
Teaser for March Badness 2025
02:35:22
Speaker
He says, zero important unless you're porting a game to a platform.
02:35:28
Speaker
Which means you have a platform deal, you don't have a dev. Apparently it's not important.
02:35:33
Speaker
So I guess it makes sense. Warrior64, you're never wrong. Got him. Got me. got Got him. The cross, my guy. Alright, let's close this sucker out. Guys, thank you all so much for being here. Next week, Chris Galani is going to be going aggro for March Badness 2025. We might get violent.
