00:00:02
Chris
Okay, what the hell? Welcome back to the Mythic Draft Podcast. I'm Chris.
00:00:06
NoRonliketheRon
And I'm a very confused Ron.
00:00:08
Chris
I don't know. I hit the button. It's supposed to
00:00:21
NoRonliketheRon
Oh my god. sir Yes, I texted you yesterday to remind me. So I went for a bike ride yesterday and there's a trail.
00:00:31
Chris
olivia asked me she was like why did why what's with a thornbu i was like i had to be either with a bike or a hike so
00:00:37
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, well, you know. So i'm ah there's a trail that runs. Basically, we have a creek that runs on the west side of town that the city, like years ago, we're like, well, this is undevelopable land. So they just made like a little path.
00:00:54
NoRonliketheRon
It's not a very well-maintained trail, but there is a trail there. So riding my bike. And it's been, this actually, it is the first time I've ridden it this year, that trail.
00:01:04
Chris
Hmm.
00:01:05
NoRonliketheRon
There was like... ah There must have been 30 down trees. And I'm lifting my bike over the trees.
00:01:10
Chris
Really?
00:01:12
NoRonliketheRon
um it's like it It was like I was doing...
00:01:14
Chris
I figured you were just picking the trees up and throwing them to the side.
00:01:14
NoRonliketheRon
it
00:01:19
NoRonliketheRon
Yes. I was like doing a savage race. I'm like lifting my bike up. I'm like doing a push-up. you know like and that And then i almost died. This is all leading up to the thorn bush.
00:01:31
Chris
Grizzly bear.
00:01:32
NoRonliketheRon
No. No. No, there's ah there's a bridge that goes over the creek. That's probably a good 10 feet above the creek.
00:01:41
Chris
OK.
00:01:41
NoRonliketheRon
There's a a huge double-trunked tree down on the bridge.
00:01:48
Chris
Jesus.
00:01:49
NoRonliketheRon
So I'm like, fuck, I either go forward... and deal with this obstacle or I go back and go deal with the 29 trees I've already climbed over so I was like ah
00:01:57
Chris
God, this is like a video game.
00:01:59
NoRonliketheRon
it yeah so like um I'm lifting my bike over my head and over this double tree on a bridge precariously and then I'm trying to like put the bike down and it's real awkward because you know it's gonna go into the creek
00:02:14
Chris
mm-hmm
00:02:15
NoRonliketheRon
I get the bike over. I have to muscle up over this tree to get this.
Challenges with Nature and Home Improvements
00:02:19
NoRonliketheRon
I was like, Jesus. I was not prepared for this bike ride at all. The adventure was supposed to be just a bike ride.
00:02:22
Chris
yeah mm-hmm
00:02:27
NoRonliketheRon
So I get through all that, cross the little creek. By the way, it was nice and warm out yesterday. The creek water was very cold.
00:02:35
Chris
oh no you fell into the creek okay
00:02:36
NoRonliketheRon
Very cold. You have to, well, you have to, it's a, there's no path through. You have to go through the creek. You just ride through or, you know, it's fun, but it was cold.
00:02:44
Chris
hmm hmm hmm
00:02:49
NoRonliketheRon
So then I'm wet. I'm tired. I'm exhausted. And it's only like a three mile ride. It's not even like that bad. But then right as I'm getting near the end of the ride, getting ah almost to civilization,
00:03:04
NoRonliketheRon
I run over a thorn bush and somehow it got stuck behind, between like the tire and my seat post. And it was just whipping me as a just and I couldn't, I was in a spot where I really couldn't stop right at that moment.
00:03:14
Chris
Oh my gosh.
00:03:20
NoRonliketheRon
And it's just whipping me and whipping me. i So for like a good 10 feet, I'm just getting whipped by a thorn bush as I'm riding my bike.
00:03:27
Chris
Oh my gosh. You're getting flayed alive as you're trying to ride a bike.
00:03:28
NoRonliketheRon
I was like, yeah yes. last i was like So I got done and I was like, fuck.
00:03:32
Chris
ah
00:03:36
NoRonliketheRon
And like, there's another side of this this trail that you can go on. I was like, nope. And I just, I was like, this this was all a sign to just go back and ride my regular route. So I texted you to remind me that my very fun bike ride yesterday
00:03:46
Chris
Mm. Yeah.
00:03:52
Chris
That doesn't sound fun at all.
00:03:54

00:04:56
NoRonliketheRon
I don't know what what it is.

00:05:00
NoRonliketheRon
They're all over the place.
00:05:01
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Once I got, was playing fetch with the dogs in the yard the other day and through the ball and all sudden Evie comes and she's like three legging it over. I'm like, what the hell? Look, she had two of them in her balls.

Chris
So poor little thing.
00:05:16
NoRonliketheRon
We get the monkey balls.
00:05:17
Chris
And then I asked the guy on your shift, he's you know Mr.
00:05:18
NoRonliketheRon
That's the problem we
00:05:21
Chris
Lawn Care. said, how do I get rid of this? He's like, you just have to have better grass that'll compete it out. i was like, well, prior to that, how do I get rid of it? He's like, uh. I was like, I was thinking of napalm.
00:05:34
NoRonliketheRon
get.
00:05:34
Chris
He's like, well, I mean, that technically will work, but I would not suggest you lighting your lawn on fire.
00:05:39
NoRonliketheRon
I mean...
00:05:40
Chris
I said, where I live, it's not like the fire department's going to show up.
00:05:42
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, good.
00:05:43
Chris
He did not like that.
00:05:45
NoRonliketheRon
You got a good 10 minutes before they get out.
00:05:47
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
00:05:48
NoRonliketheRon
And more than likely, Alan will get there.
00:05:50
Chris
Right, yeah.
00:05:52
NoRonliketheRon
So you're fine.
00:05:57
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, I just wanna turn it all into concrete.
00:06:01
Chris
I mean, the nicest place in the backyard is the piece of AstroTurf we have.
00:06:07
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, because it doesn't grow and it's it's nice.
00:06:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:06:12
Chris
Yeah. I mowed the lawn for the first time. this season, what Thursday?
00:06:19
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah,
00:06:19
Chris
I say mow the lawn, I mowed the patches that were tall and then spread the rest of the pollen around.
00:06:25
NoRonliketheRon
yeah. yeah
00:06:26
Chris
Oh my gosh. And then I got, I know, 20 feet into the string trimming and edging and string ran out.
00:06:37
Chris
was like, well, I remember last year i bought a couple spools. Well, past Chris is an asshole and has hidden these spools of line from future Chris because I dug all through the garage.
00:06:51
Chris
Couldn't find it.
00:06:51
NoRonliketheRon
Oh, maybe the mice used them for a nest.
00:06:52
Chris
Couldn't find it. Couldn't find it. And maybe. you know, my darling wife gets home. She's like, you going to finish edging? I said, not a word, woman. Not a word.
00:07:02
Chris
Yeah,
00:07:05
NoRonliketheRon
I saw your darling wife the other day.
00:07:07
Chris

NoRonliketheRon
All those at work.
00:07:08
Chris
Yeah, yeah. She said she ran into you.
00:07:12
NoRonliketheRon
to know First of all, I just wouldn't think she would be shopping it there. You guys are too way too bougie to go to that grocery store.
00:07:19
Chris
Oh my, will you stop? We go to Food Lion all the time.
00:07:20
NoRonliketheRon
a
00:07:21
Chris
it was also because it was on her way to pick Liv up from field hockey. Or at lacrosse.
00:07:26
NoRonliketheRon
and look i was looking at like for the driver to pick her up but you know
00:07:30
Chris
Oh, yeah, okay. Yeah, she was going to pick the driver up from lacrosse practice.
00:07:38
NoRonliketheRon
the uh yeah we've i've cut the grass three times already this year because my backyard grows like crazy my front yard i could not cut for another two months
00:07:42
Chris
Jeez.
00:07:45
Chris
Hmm.
00:07:48
Chris
Yeah.
00:07:48
NoRonliketheRon
But my wife has now decided, you know, she wants to all these projects, which means that I have decided to do all these projects, apparently.
00:07:56
Chris
Oh, wait, yeah. Have you made room for the T-Rex skeleton? OK.
00:08:05
NoRonliketheRon
She wants to
00:08:09
NoRonliketheRon
hardscape where the skeleton sits in the front yard. And I said, oh, that sounds like a great job for a professional. She's like, no, I think we could do it. We'll just go to Lowe's and get the bags.
00:08:20
NoRonliketheRon
I'm like, all right, I'm going to do some quick math here.
00:08:23
Chris
Go to Lowe's and get the bags.
00:08:25
NoRonliketheRon
excuse We're going to like a hard skateboarder with rocks, like river
Community Clubs and Nostalgia
00:08:30
NoRonliketheRon
rocks.
00:08:30
Chris
OK.
00:08:31
NoRonliketheRon
Instead of having mulch, I'm tired of having mulch that the cats just shit in.
00:08:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:08:36
NoRonliketheRon
So she's like, oh, you know, we'll just let's get the bags. And I'm like, all right, well, those bags are like $10 a bag and they cover, i don't know, a square foot.
00:08:44
Chris
If that.
00:08:45
NoRonliketheRon
If that. And I'm like...
00:08:46
Chris
it's It's amazing. It's like this giant bag, and then you dump it out, and you're like, well, that's five inches.
00:08:51
NoRonliketheRon
Right. And i said, and um we have to do roughly 300 square feet. we're going to do the whole line and around the house and all that.
00:09:03
NoRonliketheRon
And she's like, well, how many bags does that be? I'm like, well, it's about a half a ton. ah So... o Let's not do that.
00:09:14
NoRonliketheRon
So... I said, well, let's let's call professional have them do it. That's why we work, so that they can do the work.
00:09:22

00:09:50
Chris
Hmm. So you're going to go to Home Depot today? I looked at her. oh my. ah I said, I don't know. Perhaps. She said, well, you could go look at that. I said, what if, I said, they probably don't have the same style brick.
00:10:05

NoRonliketheRon
Well, very slowly and in public,
00:12:22

NoRonliketheRon
They've started the drone delivery thing in Texas.
00:13:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:13:33
NoRonliketheRon
So, you know, we're getting there.

NoRonliketheRon
Or just stop delivering junk out of my house.
00:13:44
Chris
Well, yeah.
00:13:47
Chris

00:13:56
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, it's insane.
00:13:59
Chris
I, I don't get it.
00:14:02
NoRonliketheRon
It's like the people that that call my house. recall life don't call my house mr so house one They call my phone every day and say, we'd like to buy your house.

00:14:13
NoRonliketheRon
How are you making money at this?
00:14:14
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:20
NoRonliketheRon
They must be making money, though. I mean, they wouldn't do it otherwise.
00:14:25
Chris
I hate people.
00:14:27
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, people are... Yeah, I've never opened a piece of mail like, you know what? I did need to get a credit card.
00:14:34
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Huh. need to redo all the windows in my house.
00:14:41
NoRonliketheRon

00:14:50
Chris

00:14:50
NoRonliketheRon
Get out of don't want I don't want your windows.
00:14:52
Chris
What's like, was it last year I had true green walk through there? I guess they, one of the neighbors uses them and they're checking with everybody else. So i walk out there. I'm like, there's nothing you can do for my lawn. Oh, you've got a nice lawn. I said, do I Yeah. Yeah. Really green and flush. I go down and I rip part of it up. I said, this is crabgrass.
00:15:16
Chris
This is what my lawn is. You think this is good?
00:15:21
Chris
I guess I hadn't really a value. I said, get the hell off my property. God.
00:15:27
NoRonliketheRon
If you walk up to me and say, we can fix your lawn, I was having conversation about fundamentally don't understand how little I give a shit about my lawn.
00:15:37
NoRonliketheRon
If I could pave it all over, i would.
00:15:42
Chris
There was a guy in Sharptown that did that. He got tired of the town fussing at him. He paved it all and painted it green.
00:15:49
NoRonliketheRon
I mean, i think the more...
00:15:50
Chris
ah Yeah, the guy had ah he had a point.
00:15:53
NoRonliketheRon
The more important question here is, Sharptown has employees? What the hell are you talking about? there's four There's four people living in that town.
00:16:01
Chris
They have a... Nah, they have a population. i think the population is up to like 720 now. I think
00:16:05
NoRonliketheRon
That is not true.
00:16:07
Chris
i think so
00:16:08
NoRonliketheRon
i don't think there's no way inside the town of Sharptown is 720 people. What are they all living in the old pickle factory?
00:16:19
Chris
There's no, I went by there yesterday. There's no, there's only one vat still sitting out there, I guess, for historic reasons.
00:16:24
NoRonliketheRon
Well, where are y'all supposed to go swimming?
00:16:28
Chris
ah Uh, as of late 2023, the population of Sharptown, Maryland is approximately 703 people.
00:16:36
NoRonliketheRon
Hmm. Hmm.
00:16:38
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:16:39
NoRonliketheRon
I don't if believe it.
00:16:40
Chris
Man, it's booming too. It has an annual growth rate of 0.14%.
00:16:47

Is there a mayor of Sharptown?
00:16:53
Chris
Yes.
00:16:54
NoRonliketheRon
Hmm. They just like the four people change hands like every year. They're like, are you going to mayor this time?
00:17:00
Chris
It just goes yeah house by house.
00:17:02
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. So that guy just should have waited his turn to be mayor.
00:17:04
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:07
NoRonliketheRon
And then he could change the rules.
00:17:07
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Sharp Town had all kinds of things. They had a town drunk. Had a...
00:17:16
NoRonliketheRon
Well, yeah, Mayberry had all of these things. I've seen the show.
00:17:21
Chris
Ours was named Toby.
00:17:24
NoRonliketheRon
Since you never police officers, you
00:17:24
Chris
And he would fall off his bicycle so much, we somebody in town finally bought him a tricycle to ride.
00:17:31
NoRonliketheRon
that's... That's a clever solution to the problem, actually.
00:17:36
Chris
Yeah, yeah. yeah, yeah. ye
00:17:38
NoRonliketheRon
Oh, man. That's what we should do. I should just get a bunch of walkers in my car for all the heroin heads that are doing the the leaning.

00:17:46
NoRonliketheRon
We saw one yesterday. at a my wife's like, please don't fall the traffic. Please don't fall traffic. i' like, they never actually fall. They just...

00:17:53
NoRonliketheRon
They sway.
00:17:58
NoRonliketheRon

00:18:08
Chris
yep was it people call it the crack sparrow walk instead jack sparrow yeah yeah yeah i just yeah uh
00:18:09
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, that's good.
00:18:20

I like the Trek idea, though, you know, o he's not going to stop drinking and he's still going to keep riding his bike.
00:18:24

00:24:44
Chris

00:24:51
NoRonliketheRon
when we were kids.
00:24:55
NoRonliketheRon
Well, you know, was anything from back then funny?
00:25:01
NoRonliketheRon
Eh, they could be. That's fair. That's fair. We were talking about work yesterday morning. Somebody said something about, oh, we were talking about the zoo cause we went the zoo for a call.
00:25:12
Chris
yeah
00:25:12
NoRonliketheRon
And kangaroos, you know, they're wallabies, whatever.
00:25:15
Chris
wallabies yeah yeah they're working on it well well as per our conversation prior to this know money ain't going but so many places
00:25:17
NoRonliketheRon
They're wallabies, right? but By the way, that Jitsu needs some help. They don't like, they only have two snakes.
00:25:30
NoRonliketheRon
Well, that's fair. That's fair. So anyways, we're talking about, and somebody i mentioned Captain Kangaroo, and I looked, and every everybody at the table was like, who the hell is Captain Kangaroo? I'm like, the two old people that were sitting at the table were like, yeah, Captain Kangaroo, you did a kid's show. And I'm like, I said, do you realize that, like,
00:25:48
NoRonliketheRon
as old as am, because I was the oldest person there, he wasn't even on the air when I was a kid. like It was all reruns.
00:25:52
Chris
yeah yeah right
00:25:53
NoRonliketheRon
ah But I know who Captain Kangaroo is based on reruns, which is like a weird effect you don't think about. like I never really saw Captain Kangaroo during Captain Kangaroo, but I know who he is.
00:26:05
Chris
yeah yeah his final the final episode was December 1984.
00:26:06
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:26:10
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:26:11
Chris
Good God, it was on the air for 29 years.
00:26:14
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, it's there for it was a long time.
00:26:16
Chris
Wow.
00:26:16
NoRonliketheRon
want to say he started in philly or something
00:26:20
Chris
Hmm. The guy, Bob Keishin, also played Carabelle the Clown on the Howdy Doody show.
00:26:28
NoRonliketheRon
oh that's fun fact another show that same thing like i knew who howdy duty was i've never seen it how would you howdy duty episode it's never once god the next thing
00:26:29
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:26:35
Chris
Right. Yeah. No.
00:26:39
Chris
Hmm. Yeah. Gina, here's another one that'll probably give you a nice little chuckle. I, for a while as a child, thought that Howdy Doody and Hee Haw were the same show.
00:26:57
NoRonliketheRon
I don't know that I know what Hee Haw is.
00:27:00
Chris
Really?
00:27:01
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:27:02
Chris
Oh, you should look that up.
00:27:03
NoRonliketheRon
Is that the weird one with the doors?
00:27:06
Chris
Yes.
00:27:07
NoRonliketheRon
Okay. All right.
00:27:08
Chris
Yeah.
00:27:09
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:27:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:27:10
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:27:10
Chris
Yeah, I kept waiting for Howdy Doody to show up. Yeah.
00:27:14
NoRonliketheRon
Hmm. Why did you think that?
00:27:17
Chris
I don't know, because they're both like Western themed. a dumb yeah Dumb kid in Sharptown trying to figure out, you know, the pickle brine got to my brain, I guess.
00:27:20
NoRonliketheRon
Was it...
00:27:27
NoRonliketheRon
but like How many did he was like a puppet?
00:27:30
Chris
Yeah.
00:27:30
NoRonliketheRon
Right? The puppet show.
00:27:31
Chris
yeah i Yeah, I felt like all the skits they do on Hee Haw, one of them would be a little Howdy Doody marionetting out.
00:27:37
NoRonliketheRon
Hmm.
00:27:38
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
00:27:42
NoRonliketheRon
I feel like when I was a kid, I either watched cartoons, I loved F Troop, and ah the Gover Pile Show.
00:27:47
Chris
Oh, F Troop.
00:27:51
NoRonliketheRon
Man, I watched the crap of the Gover Pile Show.
00:27:53
Chris
Really?
00:27:54
NoRonliketheRon
i don't know why.
00:27:56
Chris
Yeah. I watched a lot of Black Sheep Squadron.

NoRonliketheRon
But big. Saturday morning cartoons...
00:28:16

00:28:36
NoRonliketheRon
Well, and I don't know if it's the same where you are, but do you remember who did the preview for most the most of the years that I remember?
00:28:36
Chris
TV Guide only had so much real estate.

00:28:45
NoRonliketheRon
It was the Micro Machine Guy. Yeah. It does it?
00:28:53
NoRonliketheRon
I only know that guy is the Micro Machine Guy because he talks faster than the Micro Machine commercials.
00:29:07
NoRonliketheRon
Again, we're old and they...
00:29:08
Chris
yeah what are what are we teaching these children in school
00:29:12
NoRonliketheRon
I don't think they're teaching them about the phenomenon was that was the Micro Machine guy.
00:29:16
Chris
Or Captain Kangaroo?
00:29:18
NoRonliketheRon
Or Captain the Kangaroo.
00:29:19
Chris

Chris
Yeah.
00:29:29
NoRonliketheRon
Micro Machines weren't that even that cool.
00:29:31
Chris

NoRonliketheRon
I know, me too. I had a Darth Vader helmet Micro Machine carrying case.
00:29:41
Chris
Yeah.
00:29:41
NoRonliketheRon
What the hell did Darth Vader have to do with micro-machines?
00:29:41
Chris
Yeah. Nothing. But again, it was just a way to sell things.
00:29:47
NoRonliketheRon
It was, boy. And it worked.
00:29:48
Chris
God, they would just take two things that were totally unrelated. And then here you go, kids.
00:29:54
NoRonliketheRon
you know what? We were happier.
00:29:56
Chris
Yeah.
00:29:56
NoRonliketheRon
There were no video games. You just had two video games you could play.
00:29:59

You know why? Cause they do the stupid. We'll turn it off and see if that works. No.
00:33:06
NoRonliketheRon
Well, that doesn't... I already thought of that. We invented that, goddammit.
00:33:09
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:33:13
NoRonliketheRon
Goddamn yeets.
00:33:15
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Go, go recode it or something.
00:33:18
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, like, get into the Matrix and dematrix it or whatever the heck you guys do.
00:33:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:33:22
Chris
Yeah.
00:33:23
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:33:23
Chris
Yeah. So side tangent to that. So I got a Kindle fire a couple months ago and got it, you know, found out that you can't, yeah, we're not sponsored.
00:33:32
NoRonliketheRon
Sure.
00:33:37
NoRonliketheRon
That's fine.
00:33:39
Chris
Can't, um, I couldn't get the Marvel unlimited app to read comics on it. I was like, what the hell is this?
00:33:48
NoRonliketheRon
What's that?
00:33:49
Chris
So it's not in the Amazon app store or whatever. I looked it up online and did all kinds of, I had to download things and change settings to install the Google play store on my Kindle so I can download from that onto it. So now I i guess I jail broke it.
00:34:10
NoRonliketheRon
You're basically Keanu Reeves. You're a hacker.
00:34:12
Chris
ah Exactly. that' so i told my wife. She's like, what are you doing? i was like, I'm hacking. and She just kind of shook her head and walked away.
00:34:19
NoRonliketheRon
did Did you did just start like typing?
00:34:22
Chris
Yeah.
00:34:22
NoRonliketheRon
Just making the noise like you're doing something?
00:34:23
Chris
Exactly. Yeah.
00:34:25
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, that's funny. This is a side tangent to your side tangent.
00:34:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:34:31
NoRonliketheRon
I had the Kindle Fire for like a little while.
00:34:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:34:35
NoRonliketheRon
Now, I use my Kindle differently than you most people do. I just read books on it. I didn't like it because I just was like, I just like the Kindle. Was it the Paperwhite? Whatever the other ones?
00:34:44
Chris
Mm.
00:34:45
NoRonliketheRon
that So I just went into that.
00:34:45
Chris
Yeah.
00:34:48
Chris
Yeah, that's what I was going to get. But I was like, well, if I get this, I can use, read comics on it too.
00:34:52
NoRonliketheRon
You read the comics.
00:34:54
Chris
So, yeah.
00:34:54
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. Yeah. I totally understand why you would get the fire.
00:35:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:01
NoRonliketheRon
ah just I My Kindle is... My Kindle is the thing that I hate myself the most for but use the most.
00:35:10
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:10
NoRonliketheRon
Because my mother my mother bought me a Kindle. She might be the first Kindle back in... Oh my god, it had to be... Oh... Six?
00:35:19
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:20
NoRonliketheRon
so like that, because I was all in the apartment before I moved to this house. and And I was like, I'm never going to use this thing. I love books. I love the feel of books. i'm never to use it. And now I use that thing. i use that ah every day on my Kindle.
00:35:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:33
NoRonliketheRon
It's crazy. Yeah.
00:35:36
Chris
Launched in November of 2007. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That tracks.
00:35:39
NoRonliketheRon
Okay. So I had about a seven. like Six or seven. something Somewhere in there. Makes sense.
00:35:43
Chris
yeah the tracks
00:35:44
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. yeah We were at work the other day at the meeting and someone showed a picture of some of the some of the guys at the shifts. And they're like, I don't know when this picture from. I'm like, right, well, me do some detective work. Okay, well, they're wearing black polos. So that means it must be after 2010. The um the cabinets at the kitchen are this.
00:36:03
NoRonliketheRon
So they must be, you know, I'm like, oh, it must be 2011. They're like, what? I'm like, yeah, well, here's why.
00:36:08
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:36:09
NoRonliketheRon
it's
00:36:10
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:12
Chris
wasn't the baby blue polos.
00:36:12
NoRonliketheRon
fun.
00:36:15
Chris
It wasn't the Royal Farms polos.
00:36:15
NoRonliketheRon
so so they weren't They weren't at Rollo Farms delivering gas, so that means that it has to be after that that era.
00:36:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:23
Chris
Yeah. Golly, Tay.
00:36:27
NoRonliketheRon
I never had the baby blue pillow, thank God. Missed that era. I had the Salisbury Depart t-shirts.
00:36:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:36
NoRonliketheRon
there was thinking about the other day, I was like, we should we should make those shirts again.
00:36:36
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:40
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, we could.
00:36:42
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. and of course we could.
00:36:45
Chris
Yeah, I'm saying, yeah, mi throwback.
00:36:45
NoRonliketheRon
i remember I remember the chief was so... I hate to depart.
00:36:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:52
NoRonliketheRon
Well, we're going to be the st. It's not just the Salisbury Fire Department anymore, we're just st.
00:36:58
Chris
What's this?
00:37:00
NoRonliketheRon
This is the S with the FD, we're just st.
00:37:02
Chris
Oh, well, yeah.
00:37:04
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. I worked for st.
00:37:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:37:07
NoRonliketheRon
but you guys don't like that joke.
00:37:09
Chris
Yeah, well. Yeah, they also like their stupid Boston fronts.
00:37:13
NoRonliketheRon
Oh my god, the ugliest thing I've ever seen in my entire life. It's ugliest.
00:37:19
Chris
If you want to look like the Pope.
00:37:19
NoRonliketheRon
It looks like a a third grader made it in art class.
00:37:23
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:37:25
NoRonliketheRon
And then it's got a string on there that if you cut the string, the whole thing doesn't look right.
00:37:31
NoRonliketheRon
That's what we've been told.
00:37:32
Chris
hi
00:37:33
NoRonliketheRon
The string, by the way, I believe is made out of
00:37:34
Chris
new york New York front for life.
00:37:37
NoRonliketheRon
Exactly. But the string apparently is made out of some sort of fireproof material. Oh no, it's just cotton string.
00:37:43
Chris
What?
00:37:45
NoRonliketheRon
What's going happen when that thing goes into a fire?
00:37:49
Chris
ah
00:37:52
Chris
I mean, look, if if you like that style front, you do you, but...
00:37:52
NoRonliketheRon
I can
00:37:56
NoRonliketheRon
i could tell you this, no one's told me I have to change over, so can tell what's still on my helmet.
00:38:00
Chris
I noticed that the other day.
00:38:03
NoRonliketheRon
And I want to see something in writing before I do it, because... That front's going out with me. That's my front gut. I earned that front.
00:38:12
Chris
so yeah yeah sure topic one yeah
00:38:15
NoRonliketheRon
So, all right, we're at topic one, I guess. I feel like we had a really long root and roll. It's nice.
00:38:22
Chris
wait yeah oh gosh
00:38:24
NoRonliketheRon
So I have a thought experiment for you.
00:38:28
NoRonliketheRon
So, this is a hypothetical situation. All of your concerns of safety are going to be solved. So,
00:38:37
Chris
OK. OK.
00:38:38
NoRonliketheRon
You will be safe. You'll be able to come back home. You will not be put into the void of space and all of the magical technology works. Time travel exists.
00:38:52
NoRonliketheRon
You can only go in the future, though. You can't get past.
00:38:56
NoRonliketheRon
How long into the future could you go before things are just complete completely unrecognizable?
00:39:08
NoRonliketheRon
Like if I said, pick a day, to that time frame, would you go there 30 years?
00:39:09
Chris
Oh.
00:39:16
NoRonliketheRon
Do you think 30 years, things would be so much different that you wouldn't recognize what's going on?
00:39:18
Chris
Golly. Right.
00:39:23
NoRonliketheRon
Because think about this. 25 years ago, 9-11 happened.
00:39:30
Chris
Right.
00:39:31
NoRonliketheRon
So think about what life was like before nine eleven compared to today.
00:39:36
Chris
oh
00:39:41
NoRonliketheRon
I think it's less than 20 years.
00:39:42
Chris
Ah, yeah, I'm thinking like 10.
00:39:43
NoRonliketheRon
and you Yeah, because if I go to the future 25 years, I wouldn't understand the technology of going on.
00:39:44
Chris
Yeah.
00:39:51
NoRonliketheRon
First off, i I'm assuming everybody's going flying cars because I've been promised that forever.
00:39:52
Chris
yeah yeah Yeah, that's got to happen.
00:39:57
NoRonliketheRon
It's got to happen.
00:39:58
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
00:40:00
NoRonliketheRon
Everybody be walking around in VR goggles all of the time.
00:40:04
Chris
Well, I think it'll just be part of their glasses, but yeah.
00:40:09
NoRonliketheRon
But if you want a future eighty years or a hundred years twenty twenty one twenty six you go to there's no way you're recognize anything.
00:40:11
Chris
Oh my gosh.
00:40:15
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:18
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:23
NoRonliketheRon
Is
00:40:23
Chris
Yeah. I mean, people probably only have four toes by then.
00:40:27
NoRonliketheRon
that the thing we're worried about?
00:40:29
Chris
Evidently, like the pinky toe is being slowly evolved out.
00:40:33
NoRonliketheRon
Well, we're turning into crabs. Everybody evolves into crabs. That's the thing.
00:40:38
Chris
Really?
00:40:39
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, apparently that's an evolutionary rule. Yeah, yeah. The crab is the most stable form, so everything everybody evolves into crabs eventually. You didn't know this?
00:40:50
NoRonliketheRon
You're a biologist, for God's sakes.
00:40:51
Chris
Oh my gosh.
00:40:54
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. Crabs are i are king.
00:40:57
Chris
Carcinization.
00:41:02
NoRonliketheRon
All right.
00:41:03
Chris
An example of convergent evolution has occurred at least five times in the last 180 million years. Decapod crustaceans like lobster, shrimp, and crayfish are among those of old crab-like bodies.
00:41:14
Chris
ah Theories include the rounded shell may allow crabs to scuttle sideways more effectively than a cylindrical body. The crab like body plan allows for more flexibility and leg evolution beyond walking.
00:41:27
Chris
And the crab like body may allow for easier adaptation to new habitats. Huh?
00:41:34
NoRonliketheRon
we're all coming we're all becoming crabs.
00:41:36
Chris
That's insane.
00:41:37
NoRonliketheRon
Crab is king.
00:41:38
Chris
Wow. Huh?
00:41:40
NoRonliketheRon
How did you not know about this, Mr. Biology?
00:41:43
Chris
Because that's, that's a theoretical thing. That's.
00:41:47
NoRonliketheRon
Wasn't all biology basically theoretical?
00:41:52
Chris
I mean, I guess some of it.
00:41:56
NoRonliketheRon
Anyways, we're becoming crabs, but I think 100 years from now, you would not recognize anything.
00:41:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:42:07
Chris
Well, I mean, i mean, just what will the world look like in general?
00:42:07
NoRonliketheRon
lose you? um that There it is.
00:42:14
Chris
Take the tech part out of it.
00:42:16
NoRonliketheRon
Well, I think the tech part's what changes it though, right? Because you take this thought experiment further, you take someone living in 1626 and move him to 1726, not a big change.
00:42:28
Chris
whoo
00:42:32
Chris
ah i don't know though i mean would you immediately die because of like i don't know a super cold or something yeah the safety thing yeah yeah ya yeah
00:42:40
NoRonliketheRon
we' We're taking all the safety. we put this That's why I put safety rules into the into this hypothetical. But that person, people are still farming the land, using plows, mostly traveling by horse or by foot.
00:42:54
NoRonliketheRon
right They're not dodging cars all of a sudden.
00:42:55
Chris
yeah
00:42:58
NoRonliketheRon
Now you take that person from 1726 and put them into 1826. Now you got railroads. Then 100 years from there, 1926, you got cars everywhere.
00:43:05
Chris
Hmm.
00:43:06
NoRonliketheRon
100 years from 1926 to 2026,
00:43:09
Chris
Sure.
00:43:10
NoRonliketheRon
hundred years from nineteen twenty six to twenty twenty six
00:43:14
Chris
Oh my gosh.
00:43:14
NoRonliketheRon
but I mean, Mike, you text somebody from 1926 and dropped them in now, they'd be like, what is why are all these lunatics talking into the air?
00:43:19
Chris
Yeah. Right. Yeah.
00:43:23
NoRonliketheRon
Right? like
00:43:25
Chris
Huh. So, mean, this is like demolition man almost.
00:43:30
NoRonliketheRon
It's 100% demolition, man. Yeah.
00:43:32
Chris
Yeah.
00:43:32
NoRonliketheRon
yeah
00:43:33
Chris
yeah I, uh,
00:43:36
Chris
Yeah, I mean, ah e yeah, you can't go that far because, yeah, you go 100 years. I mean, because by then, i mean, cybernetics have to be a thing.
00:43:48
NoRonliketheRon
we We either have solved climate crisis or been killed by it.
00:43:52
Chris
yeah yeah it's either, yeah things are working out great or you have to live in this dome or else you die.
00:44:01
NoRonliketheRon
Right. Yeah.
00:44:02
Chris
yeah. you're worried about is this person real or are they unsynthetic, synthetic?
00:44:09
NoRonliketheRon
Oh, I didn't think about the Android conversation.
00:44:10
Chris
Huh?
00:44:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:14
NoRonliketheRon
And that is a really good point.
00:44:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:17
NoRonliketheRon
Boy. Because right now, on the internet, you don't know someone's real.
00:44:25
Chris
Right.
00:44:26
NoRonliketheRon
So let alone 100 years from now, you won't know people walking around are real.
00:44:29
Chris
Oh yeah.
00:44:32
Chris
Yeah. Cause I mean, look at some of these tech shows and some of the advanced robotics they have. I mean, yeah they can interact and talk.
00:44:42
NoRonliketheRon
But then the question becomes, are they real?
00:44:46
Chris
that shit Yeah.
00:44:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:44:50
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, I mean...
00:44:50
Chris
What, what makes something real? Is it because it's tangible and yeah, it can carry out a thought because I mean,
00:45:02
Chris
What is chat GPT? They have to reset every 45 days or whatever?
00:45:07
NoRonliketheRon
suicidal.
00:45:08
Chris
Yeah. I mean. Yeah.
00:45:13
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, i don't think I don't think you could take yourself and go 100 years in the future and recognize anything.
00:45:24
NoRonliketheRon
There's no way.
00:45:25
Chris
Yeah.
00:45:26
NoRonliketheRon
either Either we've bombed ourselves into the Stone Age or things are so crazy technologically different that you wouldn't even recognize you wouldn't even know how to use the bathroom.
00:45:28
Chris
yeah
00:45:33
Chris
Yeah. yeah at Three seashells.
00:45:39
NoRonliketheRon
think You might have three seashells. like you You wouldn't know
00:45:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:45:46
NoRonliketheRon
everything you know about technology today would not work 100 years from now, I imagine.
00:45:51
Chris
Yeah. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:45:54
NoRonliketheRon
Because think about like we think about phones. You and I have worked together for 22 years at this point.
00:46:01
Chris
yeah
00:46:02
NoRonliketheRon
In those 22 years, you knew people who did not have cell phones when you and I started working the city.
00:46:08
Chris
right yeah yeah
00:46:12
NoRonliketheRon
You and i could not find a person right now who doesn't have a cell phone.
00:46:20
Chris
um yeah yeah you're right yeah i don't know where you get those maps rs
00:46:26
NoRonliketheRon
You and I knew how to use in Mapbooks. I wouldn't even know where to find a Mapbook now.
00:46:33
NoRonliketheRon
Right? yeah Right. Like, yeah like it's so funny that now maps are a quaint thing that like you go to specialty stores for maps.
00:46:47
NoRonliketheRon
But when we were kids, maps were a thing you needed.
00:46:47
Chris
maps yeah yeah right
00:46:50
NoRonliketheRon
Like you got an Atlas when you got your car because you needed it.
00:46:58
NoRonliketheRon
I would say the only thing that hasn't changed that significantly yet in our lifetime has been cars.
00:47:06
Chris
um yeah cars and food
00:47:09
NoRonliketheRon
I keep trying, but boy.
00:47:14
NoRonliketheRon
I think the food in my lifetime is completely different.
00:47:16
Chris
Just give me a palette.
00:47:21
Chris
To an extent.
00:47:23
NoRonliketheRon
Oh, no, I think it's huge.
00:47:24
Chris
Really?
00:47:25
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, think about when what we ate as kids versus what you eat now. Like the just the things that weren't even available when we were kids. I mean, I like yeah i think i think back in when we were kids, like we ate Hamburger Helper all the time.
00:47:44
NoRonliketheRon
ah
00:47:44
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:44
NoRonliketheRon
What was that chicken? i remember they had a kitchen chicken cacciatore. Chicken tonight. Chicken tonight.
00:47:52
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember that jingle.
00:47:54
NoRonliketheRon
That crap was all over the place. Now you don't eat that anymore.
00:47:56
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:57
NoRonliketheRon
and People eat like...
00:47:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:58
NoRonliketheRon
real food now we we grew up in the like super processed ultra processed world of food
00:48:00
Chris
Yeah, I guess so.
00:48:06
Chris
Yeah. yeah it's Yeah, well, and I guess before that was more of the natural, you know
00:48:11
NoRonliketheRon
because you went out back and got the chicken and ate it yeah yeah yeah i would say in our lifetime food has been think think about um i mean maybe you're a bad example because you lived in sharptown
00:48:14
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, so that's kind of come full circle. Yeah.
00:48:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:29
NoRonliketheRon
But just think about the restaurants that existed when you were a kid versus now.
00:48:35
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:36
NoRonliketheRon
Like when I was a kid, we had one Chinese place. We had, now I grew up up here in the cities. We had, you know, our neighborhood pizza shop. It was slash deli.
00:48:48
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:48
NoRonliketheRon
And then like the chuck wagon my dad worked at. And like, that was it.
00:48:54
Chris
Yeah.
00:48:55
NoRonliketheRon
oh Now, my God, there's,
00:48:57
Chris
We had an all-in-one store.
00:49:00
NoRonliketheRon
what does that mean?
00:49:01
Chris
It was. OK. it was
00:49:03
NoRonliketheRon
What does mean?
00:49:05
Chris
yeah ah it the name of the
00:49:08
NoRonliketheRon
I'd like a horse trough and a saddle and ah I guess a backpack for school. What does that mean?
00:49:18
Chris
the name of the place was Wix Bait Shop and it had a small deli they had they could they had a menu for like
00:49:25
NoRonliketheRon
You're not making this better.
00:49:33
NoRonliketheRon
So you went to a bait shop for...
00:49:33
Chris
ah Andrew The sandwiches and cheese steaks and some minor grocery items and fishing tackle.
00:49:45
NoRonliketheRon
something.
00:49:46
Chris
Andrew Tufty, The. Andrew
00:49:47
NoRonliketheRon
That's something. Yeah, like we had... every Every neighborhood where I grew up, where up here still kind of sort of, had a corner deli slash, and then there was a pizza place nearby that was the place you went.
00:49:56
Chris
Tufty, hmm.
00:50:02
NoRonliketheRon
And then there was like three restaurants. Now if I'm like, you know I want to eat? Ethiopian. I'd go to the Ethiopian place.
00:50:10
Chris
Right.
00:50:11
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. Greek food. That didn't exist when I was a kid. I remember when I was in early high school we got a Japanese place and my grandfather who had served in army and was stationed in Japan was like super excited because we had finally got a Japanese place
00:50:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:50:32
Chris
Yeah. Because he was used to how it's actually. Yeah.
00:50:35
NoRonliketheRon
yeah he liked Japanese food he was like we're going to a Japanese place and we went a Japanese place a lot because he loved it but that didn't exist you know even when i in my lifetime that wasn't there
00:50:37
Chris
Yeah.
00:50:46
Chris
Yeah.
00:50:50
Chris
Yeah. Is it because, I mean, also, I guess we're becoming a little bit more homogeneous with our heterogeneity?
00:51:03
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, our our populations are just becoming diverse, right? like
00:51:07
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:08
NoRonliketheRon
And and becoming one finally becoming one blended population.
00:51:12
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:51:13
NoRonliketheRon
Especially we live... we have to be We have to be aware of our bias, right We live on the East Coast, the most populous part of the country.
00:51:18
Chris
Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:51:22
NoRonliketheRon
you know ah
00:51:22
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:23
NoRonliketheRon
We have these...
00:51:26
NoRonliketheRon
It's not like back in the 1920s when you had like Little Italy and Little Ireland and Little Poland and, you know,
00:51:29
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Huh. yeah
00:51:33
NoRonliketheRon
Like when I was a kid, like Little Poland in Wilmington rus the poll like there was just full of Polish people. You know, there was Little ah little Italy, with Little Poland, like those sections. You get good-ass pierogies, though. i can tell you that.
00:51:48
Chris
yeah oh god a good pierogi really
00:51:49
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. I don't like pierogies. I just had this conversation the other day. i they're They're fine. it's It's pasta wrapped around mashed potatoes.
00:52:01
NoRonliketheRon
It's double carb.
00:52:03
Chris
yeah yeah carve it up yeah i mean i get i mean well it's like any pasta the sauce really makes the pasta
00:52:05
NoRonliketheRon
we need It needs a better sauce, in my view.
00:52:16
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, but you can't put like marinara sauce on it. It's got potatoes and chives and cheese.
00:52:21
Chris
it depends well it depends on what's inside the pierogi because you can have a more savory pierogi that's pretty much a ravioli
00:52:32
NoRonliketheRon
just feel like pierogies are like the ultimate white people food.
00:52:35
Chris
uh
00:52:37
NoRonliketheRon
It's like you took something great and you filled it with mashed potatoes. Great. Good job, white people.
00:52:49
Chris
I'm sure there's some maniac on the Eastern Shore who has thrown Scrapple into a pierogi.
00:52:50
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:52:55
NoRonliketheRon
Oh, 100%. Or muskrat. Oh. or muskrat
00:52:59
Chris
Mmm, my scrap.
00:53:00
NoRonliketheRon
from
00:53:05
NoRonliketheRon
That's one diversity you guys can keep.
00:53:07
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:08
NoRonliketheRon
We don't want that here.
00:53:10
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:11
NoRonliketheRon
Oh my god, my mother said the other day... Where hell was she? They had turkey scrapple.
00:53:19
Chris
What?
00:53:20
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. What does that mean?
00:53:22
Chris
I don't know that that those are words that don't go together.
00:53:25
NoRonliketheRon
Is that like the beaks and feathers? I don't... What is...
00:53:28
Chris
Oh, yeah. I mean, that's yeah. Yeah.
00:53:32
NoRonliketheRon
I've never heard of such a thing.
00:53:34
Chris
Why?
00:53:34
NoRonliketheRon
And I don't know.
00:53:36
Chris
Who asked for it?
00:53:38
NoRonliketheRon
Who knows?
00:53:39
Chris
Yeah, it this is another one. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
00:53:43
NoRonliketheRon
Right. Yeah.
00:53:45
Chris
Hmm.
00:53:46
NoRonliketheRon
Well, her husband doesn't eat pork, so they have to eat beef scrapple, which I didn't even know was a thing.
00:53:52
Chris
Hmm.
00:53:53
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah. And then they found turkey scrapple, which I also didn't know was a thing. It sounds like an abomination.
00:53:58
Chris
Yeah, it does. Yeah, that's that's why.
00:54:06
NoRonliketheRon
People are like, what the fuck is Scrapple?
00:54:08
Chris
Yeah. Country pate.
00:54:09
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:54:12
Chris
Turkey Scrapple is a lighter alternative to traditional Pennsylvania Dutch Scrapple made from turkey broth, turkey liver, hearts, trimmings, cornmeal, and spices. It's con- they really sell it. It's a congealed sliceable loaf that is pan fried until crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside.
00:54:31
NoRonliketheRon
Nothing you ever eat that has the word congealed in it is appealing.
00:54:35
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:54:36
NoRonliketheRon
But to be fair, Scrapple, if you think about what it is, is not it's it's it's not appealing.
00:54:42
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:43
NoRonliketheRon
It's delicious, but you know don't think about it too hard.
00:54:46
Chris
Oh, I do not eat Scrapple.
00:54:48
NoRonliketheRon
Ever?
00:54:49
Chris
the Ever. Yeah.
00:54:51
NoRonliketheRon
man. Scrapple like a cheese sandwich is one of the best things in the world.
00:54:57
Chris
Nice bake bacon, egg, and cheese.
00:55:00
NoRonliketheRon
Bacon, egg, and cheese is the thats the weakest, lamest of all of the breakfast meats. No one ever is like, I want bacon over sausage or Scrapple. Those people are...
00:55:11
Chris
say that every time.
00:55:13
NoRonliketheRon
No.
00:55:13
Chris
Yes.
00:55:15
NoRonliketheRon
You're going to take bacon over a a sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich.
00:55:18
Chris
Yes.
00:55:19
NoRonliketheRon
That's... you' You should be locked up.
00:55:22
Chris
I should be locked up
00:55:23
NoRonliketheRon
That's insane.
00:55:24
Chris
Because every now and again, the sausage, especially like the scrapbook, you bite into like a toenail or something. Yeah.
00:55:29
NoRonliketheRon
No, it doesn't happen.
00:55:29
Chris
Yes. Yes.
00:55:31
NoRonliketheRon
It's mushed, well mushed before it gets that happens.
00:55:37
NoRonliketheRon
So if if if you're having a plate of pancakes and plate of pancakes, a hash browns, which, you know, again, carb on carb, and then somebody's like, what side meat would you like, sir?
00:55:40
Chris
yeah
00:55:46
NoRonliketheRon
You're going to say bacon.
00:55:48
Chris
yes
00:55:49
NoRonliketheRon
That's, you're going eat just bacon. That's crazy talk.
00:55:51
Chris
yes
00:55:54
Chris
Yeah, you get a couple slices slices of bacon, yeah.
00:55:57
NoRonliketheRon
No, I'd rather have a sausage or a scrapple every time. It's not even close.
00:56:09
NoRonliketheRon
Well, we should probably move on to topic two because, boy, we're on a little long.
00:56:14
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
00:56:14
NoRonliketheRon
That long room roll.
00:56:18
Chris
Topic two, I guess, kind of ties into your whole forward thing. so I was in a gaming slump, and I tried Fallout 4 again.
00:56:29
NoRonliketheRon
Oh, I'm sorry.
00:56:33
Chris
played quite a bit of it. i just It just never really hooked me.
00:56:41
NoRonliketheRon
I 100% agree with that statement.
00:56:45
Chris
I felt like there was like no real, like, oh, yeah, you're supposed to save your kid or whatever that was
00:56:45
NoRonliketheRon
i never...
00:56:52
Chris
taken from your spouse and frozen i yeah yeah
00:56:54
NoRonliketheRon
story was fine. The... follow It was fine. ah just, I don't know what about Fallout 4 to me never hooked me. I can tell you what I really disliked about it.
00:57:07
NoRonliketheRon
Like, i the house building, community building crap, I was like, this is terrible.
00:57:10
Chris
oh oh yeah i did i yeah i had to do that early on and i just did the bare minimum of what those maniacs needed
00:57:18
NoRonliketheRon
Right. Yeah, it's terrible.
00:57:21
Chris
The combat sucks.
00:57:21
NoRonliketheRon
um Yeah, I don't...
00:57:24
Chris
Well, they just, I don't know, maybe I'm just old, but like the enemies just sprint around the screen.
00:57:33
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:57:34
Chris
And I'm like, what the hell? I'm like, you know, oh, I'm pulling my gun up to shoot you. And all of a sudden you're in my face attacking me. So that was fun.
00:57:44
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
00:57:45
Chris
And I got yeah the vats, you know, okay, I'll do this. And, know, my weapon has, you know It says it's going to hit. I've got a 78% chance to hit you. And of the 10 shots, no hit. So yeah try that math. Yeah.
00:58:03
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, I would say I've
00:58:10
NoRonliketheRon
never really got hooked into Fallout. I like it. I like the story of Fallout.
00:58:16
Chris
yeah Yeah. I like the show. Yeah.
00:58:18
NoRonliketheRon
The show was great. like just never really... The game's always... And I play them. I've played every one of them.
00:58:23
Chris
Yeah.
00:58:25
NoRonliketheRon
And I'll play them to completion.
00:58:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:58:28
NoRonliketheRon
And I'm just like, eh, it was fine.
00:58:31
Chris
Yeah. Like I got the power armor. was like, all right, here we go.
00:58:36
NoRonliketheRon
ah yeah, you're going enjoy it for like two minutes, then you run out of fucking...
00:58:38
Chris
Exactly.
00:58:39
NoRonliketheRon
Your core runs out, and you're gonna get another one.
00:58:40
Chris
yeah I was like, this is bullshit.
00:58:41
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:58:43
Chris
Yeah. Cause I was coming off of Warhammer Space Marine. I was like, here we go. i can just go around and crush, kill and destroy. Which in retrospect, I should have just fired Space Marine 2 back up and yeah.
00:58:52
NoRonliketheRon
That game is so good.
00:58:57
NoRonliketheRon
Space Marine 2 is really good. And you know what's weird? Because I don't really like multiplayer games like that anymore.
00:59:04
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:05
NoRonliketheRon
The Space Marine multiplayer is actually fun.
00:59:07
Chris
Yeah. Yeah, I mean, they're still supporting it.
00:59:10
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, they they just put stuff out the other day.

01:02:08
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah. I did hear about that.
01:02:14
NoRonliketheRon
Which, I guess we're just never going to another Left 4 Dead, so we just have to rely on

Chris
They just... I thought they just talked about Left 4 Dead 3. Yeah.
01:02:22
NoRonliketheRon
Did they?

01:02:28
Chris
f four did three
01:02:33
NoRonliketheRon
would be crazy poll if they put out a Left 4 Dead game after 20
01:02:38
NoRonliketheRon
years
01:02:41
Chris
speculation about a new no that's not it
01:02:50

<unk> yeah there was something i know i just heard about it on tart no that's not it ah yeah i could sworn i heard something about
01:03:03

Chris
I think. I
01:03:16
NoRonliketheRon
so... No idea.
01:03:19
Chris

01:03:43
Chris
Yeah.
01:03:46
Chris
Eh, it is what it is. I might go back and beat it sometime, but eh.
01:03:51
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah, Fallout 3 was kind of the best of the group to me. And people don't agree with me.
01:03:54
Chris
I heard, yeah, a lot of people like New Vegas from what I've heard.
01:03:56
NoRonliketheRon
People like New Vegas.
01:04:00
NoRonliketheRon
Yeah.
01:04:04
Chris
Well, that was a good cast of the pod. Well, that's good.

NoRonliketheRon
I laughed harder than I've laughed in a long time.
01:04:10
Chris
Good. I think we both needed a good belly laugh today.
01:04:13
NoRonliketheRon
I think we did.
01:04:14
Chris
Yeah, now I get to go figure out if I can age bricks.
01:04:19
NoRonliketheRon
i have to go to Home Depot or Lowe's myself for projects that I didn't want to do.
01:04:27
Chris
Yeah, yeah. Well, folks, hope you're out there enjoying the warmer weather. Avoid the pollen as best you can.

01:04:39
Chris
That's right.
01:04:42
Chris
Take care, folks.
01:04:43
