Anniversary Episode Introduction

00:00:05
Speaker
Welcome to Chatsunami.
00:00:17
Speaker
Hello everybody and welcome to this very special anniversary episode of Chat Tsunami. I'm Sat Tsunami and I'm joined with the one, the only, the most sandwich-y. Is that a word, Adam? Yep, I'm joined by Adam. Adam, welcome. They said it couldn't be done. They doubted. They didn't believe. But we showed them. Hello, hello, one and all. Good to be back. Oh, I was gonna say like...
00:00:46
Speaker
They told me not to play God. Those wordsmiths and English professors, I proved them wrong.

Reflections on a Year of Podcasting

00:00:54
Speaker
And yeah, can you believe Adam, it has been one year since Chatsunami began. My goodness. Where does the time go? Yeah, where does time go when you're having fun? Really, I mean.
00:01:07
Speaker
I don't know. Well, having been on this podcast, I wouldn't know. Hey, I'm joking. I've loved every minute. Oh, I know you have. You've been, you signed a contract saying that I would have fun.
00:01:19
Speaker
Yes. It's called the Fun Contract. I have a weird contract, I have to admit, but you know what? I've climbed worse. So today we're going to be talking about the legal implications of starting a podcast. For legal reasons, that's a joke. But yeah, I honestly, I can't believe it because you and I discussed that, didn't we, in our 50th
00:01:39
Speaker
celebration episode about our favourite episodes, our favourite moments. You know, it has been a blast doing this podcast. And I don't want to turn it round on you and be like, do you agree? I feel like that's too much pressure. I disagree strongly. Is that you banging the mic on? I disagree. I disagree.
00:02:01
Speaker
did my best, Christian. No, it's been an absolute blast from start to finish. We've covered so many great topics and yeah, I'm so glad that you allowed me to accompany you on this crazy ride. Oh no, the pleasure is all mine, honestly. It's been fantastic going through film topics, video gaming topics. This honestly sounds like the trailer, doesn't it?
00:02:26
Speaker
Previously on Chatsunami. But yeah, today we've not really got a topic as such. We're going to be talking about the podcast obviously. Just seeing how wonderful it is, how great it is, how you should gift your parents a subscription to it. It's free. Get your grandparents in on the deal as well. Trust me, they'll love this show.
00:02:49
Speaker
Yeah, we're just going to be, yeah, just really chatting away, talking about not just our favourite moments, of course, but just, yeah, just chatting away. It is what we do best, isn't it? Shooting the breeze, nothing. Our specialty, as you say.
00:03:04
Speaker
And I mean, especially in this festive time, because I honestly never realized how close I started this podcast to Christmas.

Origins and Early Memories

00:03:12
Speaker
Yeah, the very first episode I did was on Dungeons and Dragons with Craig from the Beer and Chill podcast, of course. Fantastic podcast. Please go check it out. Notice me, Craig. Started off with that. The very first episode was released on the 30th of November. Ever since then, you and I have taken up the mantle of responsibility.
00:03:32
Speaker
and yeah when you're a waiter we are still here as you said they said it couldn't happen and it's not scientifically possible and we have proven them wrong you know who you are yeah you doubters it's like what was that scientific fact you know the one about bees or something it's like it's scientifically impossible for bees to fly or something have you ever heard that one i mean i i definitely have heard that one but just for our audience who may not have heard
00:04:01
Speaker
Explain more. I honestly don't know. I could be butchering this Christmas cracker of a factoid. These bees can't fly. Do you think scientifically they

Misconceptions and Amusing Anecdotes

00:04:13
Speaker
can't? I don't know. There was a thing going around and I don't know if it's one of these, you know these urban legends like you eat spiders in your lifetime and it's like it's not real. You know that kind of thing. So I don't know if it's like a kind of offshoot of
00:04:30
Speaker
that. Is it like that they're not actually flying but they're like hovering? Is that like a difference? Something like that, it's something to do with the proportions of their wings to their body mass or something like that and I don't, again I don't know whether that's like the real reason you know people are like, you know what I'll have to google this as we talk.
00:04:48
Speaker
that's I remember hearing that fact ages ago and it's like you know one of those facts where you hear as a kid and you kind of go oh neat and you know you never follow up on it like have you ever done that before where you've heard like a fact like that and you go oh wow that's so cool but then years later you get disproven
00:05:05
Speaker
I've done worse than that. I once read, when I was young, there used to be a Lego, I don't know if you remember this talk, but there used to be a Lego magazine that came out for a good few years from like, I want to say like 1999 to maybe like 2001 or 2002, a couple of years. And like the, one of the, they used to have like little, they used to have little stories, like little comic strips with different like Lego kind of, basically based on like different Lego sets and stuff.
00:05:30
Speaker
And there was one that was based around one of the space sets and stuff. Then they used to have some facts at the end, and they had some facts about the moon. And I misread one thing. I think the actual line was, I said, the moon is one of the brightest things in the night sky. I misread it to say that the moon is the brightest thing in the night sky. And I started telling people this. I was like, well, actually, the moon is the brightest thing. And people were like, no, that's not. The sun is brighter than the moon. They were like, no, no, no, the moon is brighter.
00:05:57
Speaker
the moon and look at the sun. I was so convinced by what I'd read in this magazine that I was spouting the fact gospel. I can imagine for your next birthday that year you just wanted a lab coat and some glasses. This could have been my origin story for being a mad scientist, but I told you it was brighter. I glue a ton of solar panels to the moon or something to make it
00:06:23
Speaker
Is that another plot to Despicable Me trying to steal the moon and saying, you see, you see, it's brighter? It is brighter, damn it. I wish I had just been like, oh, that's neat, and then never said anything, but I was a gobby kid, so there we go.
00:06:40
Speaker
I will even one up you on that one. I used to go to school with this guy who, nice enough guy, not gonna lie, he was a nice enough guy, I used to walk to school with him quite a lot, but he was one of those kids, you know, one of those ones that as soon as he got something into his head and he was quite smug about everything.
00:07:01
Speaker
I sound so salty and bitter but trust me it's going somewhere. Yeah this kid would always you know come away with these facts to make himself sound smart and everything and you know usually you brush it off you think yeah fair enough then whatever you know just go away please leave me alone but there was one time we were sitting there and for some reason the topic of vegans came up now why it came up I don't know
00:07:22
Speaker
I genuinely have no idea why. But we're sitting there and we're talking and he was convinced that a vegan was someone who didn't eat a type of food with a shadow. Now! Now!
00:07:40
Speaker
Let me explain where he got this factoid. The night before, there was an episode of The Simpsons where there was a throwaway joke where it was this kind of hippie character who Lisa has a crush on. It basically turned round and he says, oh, I'm a special type of vegan. I don't eat anything with a shadow. To which he's obviously misinterpreted this as vegans don't eat anything with a shadow. I was like, how
00:08:06
Speaker
I couldn't cope with it. I was just like, are you serious? You took a Simpsons episode and you just... Man, this is a very scientific opening. I know, I know. Who would have thought? Here you go. We're shifting gears. We're all highbrow now. Gone are the days of pop culture. This is a variety of it. Next week is going to be geopolitics.
00:08:27
Speaker
Now, again, for legal reasons, that's a joke. Yeah, if you want to tell us your fun facts about bees, please let us know that I'm looking. Actually, no, that is a fair

Inviting Listener Participation

00:08:37
Speaker
question. If any of you want to tell us your scientific mishaps or myths that you've heard over the years or any silly or funny stories, please feel free to let us know either in the comments or YouTube, Twitter, wherever. We would love to hear them because genuinely these kind of stories make our lives. So please,
00:08:55
Speaker
for just one story for one comment a day you can keep a hungry satsanami and or adam going a hungry sandwich yes a hungry sandwich yes is that not like pandora's box probably oh yes pandora's deli
00:09:12
Speaker
Yeah, Pandora's State Bake, that's it. Aye! I'm actually still waiting for us to open up that sandwich shop. I'm thinking about you, I can't remember what episode it was. I think it was a Call of Duty one we did a couple of weeks ago, where it was the Bombastic Schmorgish. Oh my God, that was, yeah. Oh, such a good, yeah. As we said, if the podcast doesn't work out, then yeah, we're gonna open a sandwich shop, call it a Bombastic Schmorgish board, and that'll be the end of it. That's a free profit.
00:09:41
Speaker
Step three, question mark, question mark, question mark. Step four, profit. Of course. I mean, it's easy enough to, you know, start a business. But again, legal reasons, joke. As Adam and I go away to look at the legalities of opening a sandwich shop, we will be right back just after these messages. So hold on tight.
00:10:02
Speaker
Welcome to Chatsunami, a variety podcast that talks about topics from gaming and films to streaming in general interest. Previously on Chatsunami, we discussed Game of the Decade, Deadly Premonition, the romantic thriller, Birdemic, and listen to us get all sappy as we discuss our top five Christmas films. If that sounds like your cup of tea, then you can find us an anchor, Spotify, YouTube, and all good podcast apps. As always, stay safe, stay awesome, and most importantly, stay hydrated.
00:10:33
Speaker
We are Beer and Chill Podcast. Podcast where we review TV shows, games, movies, and whatever else takes our fancy. So what are you waiting for? If you're a cool kid like us, you're gonna listen to the Beer and Chill Podcast. You can get it anywhere from Spotify all the way to your grandma's radio. My name is Jan. And I'm Creaky C. And we are Beer and Chill.
00:11:08
Speaker
Okay, and apparently it's a lot harder to open up a sandwich shop than I realize. And that was... that was a rude awakening. Yeah, yeah. I kind of wish I didn't sell, you know, the charts in the studio. Oh, back to that cardboard box behind your house, I guess. I mean, it's not a house, but it's a home. Okay. You know it's... you know you live in a crappy place, don't you? And that's your phrase.
00:11:40
Speaker
Well, you mean like the live, laugh, laugh stuff.

Critique on Home Decor Slogans

00:11:42
Speaker
Yeah, basically. Yeah, no offense to like the fans of Chatsunami who have live, laugh, laugh often. I mean, that's fine for you, but for everybody else. I mean, it's like, have you ever done that before? Like, and again, I don't want to throw shade on interior decorating because I'm not like the height of, you know, fashion or interior decorating. But if you ever gone into someone's house and you've just kind of noticed like one thing and you're like, how the hell did you get that?
00:12:09
Speaker
I do love all the generic slogans. There's another one that you always see as well. I can't remember the top of the bit. Is there not a house but a home one? There's that one as well. There's all the ones I always laugh and cringe at. The wine or gin related ones. It's like wine o'clock or gin o'clock. Oh my god. You know it's a shame Craig isn't on this episode by the way because
00:12:38
Speaker
I have a huge problem with this. This is genuinely one of my pet peeves. This is like the Chatsunami convention over here. Honest to God, there are so many. I don't know if this is international. And again, this is another question of the day because, yeah, I saw a sign the other day and it was something like the... It said something like the Gin Specter or something like that. And you know, you get the things like, oh, it's wine o'clock. Oh, it's this.
00:13:05
Speaker
it's just it's everywhere it's like if you want a generic card for someone who's taken one sip of wine in their life yeah you're just getting them a wine o'clock card it is legit eyes oh my goodness it is everywhere it's like oh whoops i bought a glass of wine the size of my face and it's like sandra you have a problem please
00:13:32
Speaker
I always remember there are a lot of teachers that get these kind of cards. No offence to the teachers out there because I know it's a hard job and everything. Because I've never seen things in Pinterest and I think this is more towards Americans but it could be international. But I think it was more towards American teachers and things where they had the big wine bottles and they're like, going home for wine o'clock. And it's like,
00:13:57
Speaker
Are you okay? I don't want to be like, you know, judgmental or something like that. Are you going home to like, drown that 10 foot bottle of wine? It's like, oops, I drank too much. I'm like, are you okay? You're looking after kids. Are you? Yeah, you do worry though. You are like.
00:14:16
Speaker
Should I do something? Yeah, it's probably fine. Yeah, it's like the way I turn in a blind eye. Yeah, it's just like, yeah, just push that to the side. But I do agree. It is just so... Oh, it's just such a genetic slogan. But do you know what's worse though? It's the fact that you get all of this ramped up to a living.
00:14:38
Speaker
during the Christmas period and as you know this has came out probably and in fact I'm not even saying probably why am I saying probably it is nearly Christmas because in November you always say oh it's not quite Christmas yet
