00:00:09
lethargeus
And I'm the guy who hates burpees, Ron.
00:00:16
Chris
What was the sadistic person who invented burpees thinking?
00:00:19
lethargeus
name His name was Master Chief Burpee in the US Navy.
00:00:24
Chris
It probably was.
00:00:25
lethargeus
No, it really was.
00:00:26
Chris
Oh, really?
00:00:26
lethargeus
That's not even a joke. His name was Master Chief. I mean, I don't know what his name was, but his his name was literally Burpee.
00:00:32
Chris

00:00:33
lethargeus
And he invented Burpee.
00:00:33
Chris
Master. Well, that was his first, his first name was master, master chief burpee.
00:00:36
lethargeus
Oh.
00:00:38
Chris
Yeah.
00:00:38
lethargeus
Right. Yeah.
00:00:39
Chris
Like chaplain chaplain.
00:00:39
lethargeus
And... there
00:00:45
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah.
00:00:46
Chris
Hmm.
00:00:47
lethargeus
But yeah, this guy's name is actually Burpee.
00:00:47
Chris
Hmm.
00:00:49
lethargeus
and is I don't mind burpees.
00:00:49
Chris
Okay.
00:00:51
lethargeus
i just don't understand why we have to invent new and worse burpees.
00:00:56
Chris
Hmm.
00:00:57
lethargeus
Because, you know...
00:00:57
Chris
Wait, what could be worse than a regular burpee?
00:01:00
lethargeus
Oh, so I decided... I might be getting ready for a savage race. So I'm stepping up my HIIT training and I'm trying to work on some, you know, problem areas such as my big ass gut.
00:01:06
Chris
okay yeah
00:01:14
lethargeus
And so I was like, oh I'll do these Beachbody things.
00:01:17
Chris
hmm
00:01:19
lethargeus
um Day one. was basically, oops, all burpees. And they were like, okay, you're going to do a burpee, and then you're going to do a jump into the air and spin around and land back down and do a burpee and jump in the air and spin around.
00:01:35
lethargeus
so what why didn'
00:01:36
Chris
But you got to opposite way each time, right?
00:01:37
lethargeus
why do we have to make burpee more complicated?
00:01:41
Chris
Was it Uncle call Tony?
00:01:42
lethargeus
It was not Uncle Tony. It was somebody else.
00:01:43
Chris
Oh, OK. ah Surprised.
00:01:45
lethargeus
and that Well, Uncle Tony has like, i don't want to do weights because I lift weights at the gym every day.
00:01:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:01:52
lethargeus
And I was like, I'll just do something that's body weight only.
00:01:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:01:55
Chris
Yeah.
00:01:56
lethargeus
And it was just like, man. but so And I told my wife because she's into Beachbody now. And I was like, some of the things that annoy me about that thing is that just, it's like, I'm not coordinated to enough to keep up with what you're doing.
00:02:08
lethargeus
It's not that I can't do this workout.
00:02:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:10
lethargeus
I just, my brain doesn't work fast enough.
00:02:12
Chris
Yeah. There was one that I had to do and it was like, you, you did like a double with donkey kick up in the air behind you. But then when you came down, you planted like your left leg and your right hand and your right leg went between it or something.
00:02:31
Chris
And like you swung and then back and then swung the other way. Yeah.
00:02:35
lethargeus
They had one that was literally forward lunge, reverse lunge, switch leg lunge, first leg. And I was like, no, let's just do one or the other.
00:02:45
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:46
lethargeus
a brain, because I literally am just like, oh wait wait, I did the wrong, but oh God. And then I'm all screwed up.
00:02:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:02:53
lethargeus
but i want
00:02:53
Chris
And then you end up doing 80 lunges on one leg.
00:02:55
lethargeus
Right. And then they had one that was wide grip pushups into close grip pushups into even closer grip, like diamond pushups. And I'm like,
00:03:02
Chris
Oof.
00:03:02
lethargeus
That's cool. but Let's just do wide grips and then we'll do close-ups and then we'll It's the same number of push-ups.
00:03:08
Chris
Yeah.
00:03:09
lethargeus
Right? I'll do this.
00:03:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:03:10
lethargeus
I'll do with all of of those push-ups. Just one at a time.
00:03:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:03:16
lethargeus
Oh God. look
00:03:17
Chris
It's that muscle confusion.

AI's Role in Creativity

00:03:18
lethargeus
Yeah, i don't I don't need that crap in my life.
00:03:19
Chris

00:07:43
Chris
You never played it?
00:07:44
lethargeus
I never played it. Well, it came out and then were such bad reviews about its bugginess and I just didn't get into it because of that.
00:07:54
Chris
yeah i can see that yeah because i uh buddy mine i was talking to he was like man you're so lucky you're playing this after all the bugs have been worked out and it's like a polished thing i was like sure yeah
00:08:05
lethargeus
Yeah, there's been a couple games that have come by that they've been released, and then it's like, oh it's too buggy. So I was like, I'll just hold off.
00:08:12
Chris
yeah well yeah because there's just there's so many games
00:08:13
lethargeus
And then I just don't end ever playing it.
00:08:19
lethargeus

00:08:44
Chris
They, uh... They swear it'll be out before 2030. Well, I mean...
00:08:51
lethargeus
what what a claim
00:08:53
Chris
yeah well i mean It was just a CG trailer.
00:08:56
lethargeus
sure
00:08:57
Chris
And it was really just like a teaser trailer at that. I think it was like 20 seconds, but yeah.
00:09:02
lethargeus
you think that's like a ah knock at Rockstar?
00:09:05
Chris
Oh, I'm sure. Yeah. Well, that's why they've had to push Grand Theft Auto 6 back is because it's been, it's taken so long that they've got to make the character models older. Ah.
00:09:17
lethargeus
ah
00:09:20
lethargeus
Yeah. That's another series that I never get into.
00:09:24
Chris
I played Vice City just because of the 80s nostalgia.
00:09:28
lethargeus
Sure.
00:09:28
Chris
That was it. That was the only reason.
00:09:30
lethargeus
I played 3 for a little while. My buddy, my roommate, had it in college.
00:09:37
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:38
lethargeus
That's how long. I must have been 3. And I was like, this is cool.
00:09:40
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:42
lethargeus
I like listening to the radio. And then I was like, wait a second.
00:09:44
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:45
lethargeus
I have a radio in my car.
00:09:47
Chris
Right? Yeah, that was the thing. Yeah. Playing Vice City is just, yeah.
00:09:51
lethargeus
like I can i could just get all these things on my MP3 player, on my Zune, and go...
00:09:55
Chris
Yeah. i Hey.
00:09:57
lethargeus
You're running around town. don't know.
00:09:59
Chris
Yeah.
00:09:59
lethargeus
I'll run people over, though, you know.
00:10:00
Chris
Yeah. It's like, there was one day we were in the car and it was a ran so far by flock of seagulls. I look at my wife. i was like, yeah, I said, yeah, it's funny. I can, you know, see what I was doing playing Grand Theft Auto in my mind.
00:10:14
Chris
She's like, what were you doing? i was like, just riding around. Yeah.
00:10:18
lethargeus
That's almost all I did in that game was just ride around.
00:10:20
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:10:24
lethargeus
Which, you know, it's a driving that's because nobody ever follows the traffic laws.
00:10:30
Chris
yeah
00:10:32
lethargeus
They're terrible drivers.
00:10:33
Chris
i i am not a good driver in cyberpunk so i weave in and out and yeah and some of the cars they just i guess a couple of cars i have a rear rear wheel drive so they're very slippery around turns so yeah but it is it is it is right
00:10:51
lethargeus
There's a problem.
00:10:58
lethargeus
forgot to turn off my Discord, and now Discord's just making noise.
00:11:02
Chris
oh that's always fun is it people messaging you or is it oh
00:11:04
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:11:07
lethargeus
It's my neighbor's Discord server, and he invited me in one day, now I'm just like, I can't just leave.
00:11:19
Chris
that's that's that's fun but okay gotcha
00:11:21
lethargeus
It's only because they play Diablo and because of the new Diablo expansion just came out, so they've just been constantly

Social Media and Community Dynamics

00:11:29
lethargeus
barraging me. It's not as bad as the group messages I get involved in and text messages where I'm just like, can you guys please stop talking for an hour?
00:11:30
Chris
hello
00:11:38
Chris
Yeah.
00:11:39
lethargeus
Yes.
00:11:39
Chris
or the Or there's the group message for like work or something like that. But then two people in it just start having their own conversation. And it's like, this is why you two could just split off and have your regular own text message.
00:11:52
Chris
You don't have to include it in the group. I don't care where you're going to dinner tomorrow night.
00:11:54
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:11:58
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah. I'm pretty good at got my back of my discord of just going through and like mute server until I want to look at it.
00:12:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:12:06
lethargeus
Like, If there's an information I want, I'll go good get it.
00:12:10
Chris
yeah
00:12:10
lethargeus
But it feels so like... It feels harsh to leave a server because it's like when you go to leave servers, like you can never come back to the server. It's like, oh, it was Christ.
00:12:17
Chris
I know. like you're gone forever.
00:12:21
lethargeus
You're dead to me. I'm sorry.
00:12:23
Chris
Yeah.
00:12:23
lethargeus
I'm sorry.
00:12:24
Chris
Yeah.
00:12:24
lethargeus
take it back.
00:12:25
Chris
yeah ill I'll just stay. It's fine. Yeah. yeah
00:12:29
lethargeus
I've been in this French speaking server for like three years now. I'm not even looking at it, but I just am so afraid.
00:12:39
Chris
Yeah.
00:12:40
lethargeus
It's terrible.
00:12:41
Chris
I also have been playing destiny, obviously, because of the new expansion that is super, super star Wars.
00:12:44
lethargeus
Sure.
00:12:47
lethargeus
And this is the last expansion.
00:12:49
Chris
No.
00:12:50
lethargeus
even though They said they what they were killing the game.
00:12:53
Chris
there, no. It's that every other kind of thing. Destiny's dead. Destiny's alive. Destiny's dead. Cause yeah, I don't, marathon is not going to be the destiny three we all want. So.
00:13:07
lethargeus
Sure, Marathon happened 30 years ago. That was their first game.
00:13:12
Chris
Well, yeah, but I'm saying the new marathon.
00:13:17
lethargeus
I don't understand Bungie's business.
00:13:21
Chris
Nope.
00:13:22
lethargeus
It seems real something to me.
00:13:22
Chris
Yeah.
00:13:25
lethargeus
I don't know how they make money.
00:13:26
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Well, I know how they make money because I almost spent $20. So my Hunter or my Titan could look like the Mandalorian.
00:13:38
lethargeus
That is a tempting $20 spend, though.
00:13:40
Chris
It was. it was. My wife was like, you haven't spent it yet? i was like, no, I haven't. She's like, are you? just Don't tempt me, woman.
00:13:47
lethargeus
How long did you go through your wife and go, can I just do this?
00:13:51
Chris
like, ah, it's not worth it. She's like, that looks like something you would do. I'm like, oh, it does. It does.
00:14:00
Chris
Yeah.
00:14:00
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:14:01
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. But I have a lightsaber and an X-Wing, so.
00:14:06
lethargeus
I mean, that's I saw your X-Wing.
00:14:08
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:10
lethargeus
It was indeed an X-Wing.
00:14:13
Chris
that's it you There was somebody online. you I can't believe they're copying this much. And somebody's right back there. This is a full partnership with Lucas. This is why this is Star Wars and Destiny. This is what we all wanted.
00:14:23
lethargeus
I mean...
00:14:23
Chris
Shut your ass.
00:14:27
lethargeus
i mean
00:14:31
lethargeus
I feel like that was kind of the whole point of Destiny because you had a shield-throwing guy and then you had an hammer-throwing guy.
00:14:32
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:37
lethargeus
Everybody wanted a lightsaber guy.
00:14:38
Chris
Yeah.
00:14:40
lethargeus
yeah You had a Force user.
00:14:42
Chris
And the fact that the yeah the villain in this arc is a better Sith than Kylo Ren was.
00:14:43
lethargeus
No,
00:14:49
lethargeus
that's not difficult.
00:14:50
Chris
but I know it's not setting the bar high, but...
00:14:54
lethargeus
I'm a better Sith than Kylo Ren was.
00:14:58
Chris
But do you walk around with your shirt off and your pants pulled up past your belly button? so you just look like some weird torso man?
00:15:06
lethargeus
Pretty much all the time.
00:15:07
Chris
Okay.
00:15:08
lethargeus
but what i What I do is I wear an actual extra cummerbund.
00:15:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:15:13
lethargeus
Yeah. It's got fluting around my abdomen.
00:15:16
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:15:17
lethargeus
I mean, to be fair, if I was as jacked as Adam Driver was, I probably would never wear a shirt.
00:15:26
lethargeus
You know.
00:15:27
Chris
yeah well
00:15:28
lethargeus
I would be at work and people like, you gotta to put shirt on that. I'm like, do I?
00:15:32
Chris
do i
00:15:36
Chris
ah
00:15:37
lethargeus
I'm just here giving the people what they want. And they want the gun show.
00:15:41
Chris
Although, I mean, this time of year, it is a little chilly out.
00:15:45
lethargeus
It's 65 degrees outside. What are we you talking about?
00:15:46
Chris
Well, today it is, but ah yeah five days ago, it was negative three.
00:15:52
lethargeus
Yeah, I got home from work today and my wife still had the heat on and it was like 74 degrees in my bedroom. I'm like, oh, God.
00:16:00
Chris
What was she doing?
00:16:01
lethargeus
Oh, well, you know.
00:16:02
Chris
Was she making a sauna?
00:16:04
lethargeus
Yes, my whole house is basically the jungle for Predator now.
00:16:12
Chris
uh the dogs are like shedding constantly like we don't know what to do
00:16:15
lethargeus
Yes, ah they lay as as low down to the floor as possible. And they basically always are begging for ice.
00:16:23
Chris
they go out to go potty and their body's like oh it's cold we got to grow hair and then they come inside they're lose the hair lose the hair lose the hair
00:16:27
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They're suffering just as much as me.
00:16:37
lethargeus
Look, I'll give her, it was like 20 degrees a couple of days.
00:16:43
lethargeus
Yeah, my harrowing drive to work the other day in the snow.
00:16:48
lethargeus
Well, I didn't realize.
00:16:50
Chris
It was probably fine until you hit the Maryland line.
00:16:53
lethargeus
ah No, well, I didn't realize that when I got on Route 1, the snow had shifted over my headlights.
00:16:54
Chris
The Sussex line.
00:17:00
Chris
Oh, that's fun. Yeah.
00:17:02
lethargeus
So I basically was making no light as I'm driving through the snow.
00:17:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:06
lethargeus
It was really rough. And all a sudden the snow fell and i was like, oh, shit, I can see. I'm in Greenwood, apparently.
00:17:18
Chris
yeah Well, I mean, that's the problem with the LED lights, because they don't melt the snow.
00:17:18
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:17:22
Chris
Yeah.
00:17:22
lethargeus
Yeah, yeah. And I almost killed one of the people in my neighborhood because at four in the morning, as I left to go to work and the snow was, you know, it was enough that my car was slipping a little bit on the in the neighborhood.
00:17:37
Chris
What?
00:17:37
lethargeus
And I come around the corner to go out towards the entrance of my neighborhood. An old man shoveling his driveway at four in the morning stepped into the road in front of me.
00:17:47
Chris
Oh my gosh.
00:17:48
lethargeus
And I'm locking up my brakes going, holy. First off, I'm having a heart attack because there's an old man in the middle the road at four in the morning. And second off, I'm like in the snow. Like, what is going on?
00:17:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:00
Chris
and Shake his fist at you.
00:18:02
lethargeus
don't even know he noticed. really don't know if he did.
00:18:06
Chris
God. Yeah.
00:18:07
lethargeus
was...
00:18:07
Chris
Why is he out at four o'clock in the morning?
00:18:09
lethargeus
i
00:18:10
Chris
What?
00:18:10
lethargeus
I don't know.
00:18:11
Chris
Yeah.
00:18:12
lethargeus
So I called my wife and i said, get your ass out there and show the snow.
00:18:13
Chris
God.
00:18:16
lethargeus
Because, you know, we we can't be slacking behind the old man.
00:18:16
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:18:19
Chris
Yeah. God. That was one thing I don't miss about being on shift. We're going to get up at 530 and shovel. Why?
00:18:28
lethargeus
That's only one shift that made that statement.
00:18:28
Chris
Why? Yeah. Yeah.
00:18:33
lethargeus
Yeah, i my shift was like,
00:18:35
Chris
We got to shovel. We got to shovel all the sidewalks around the firehouse. Oh, so we have to shovel the block. That makes sense.
00:18:39
lethargeus
Yeah, it's a three-mile hike around our favorite firehouse.
00:18:40
Chris
Yep. Yep. Okay.
00:18:42
lethargeus
Cool.
00:18:43
Chris
Yep.
00:18:44
lethargeus
ah For a a road that I've never seen anyone walk on the sidewalk on.
00:18:44
Chris
Awesome. All right.
00:18:47
Chris
Yep. Yeah.
00:18:50
lethargeus
Yeah, my shift was like, what are we going to do? I said, we're going to go out. We're going to a bag of ice. We're going spread ice, or the ice melt, and then we're going to move on.
00:18:58
Chris
yeah well i mean the good thing is three days before the state county had brine the roads and then yeah yeah yeah i don't get it
00:18:59
lethargeus
that's It's all we need to do with our day.
00:19:16
lethargeus
I feel like you just need to go out to Western Maryland and ask the guy who runs Western Maryland's roads for MDOT and say, can you just be in charge of the state?
00:19:24
Chris
yeah
00:19:25
lethargeus
you know I feel like that guy knows what he's doing.
00:19:28
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:19:29
lethargeus
Or a gal. It could be woman.
00:19:29
Chris
Or, yeah.
00:19:30
lethargeus
I don't know.
00:19:30
Chris
Or that, you know, oh, hey, you're on work for Rhodes. Hey, it's almost wintertime. This year, we're going to detail you up to Connecticut. Yeah.
00:19:41
lethargeus
i it's funny to me because like del dot and i say this every year when it snows like ah they are like sitting on the highway in a plow truck waiting for the first drop of snow and they are out there plowing before snow even touches the ground you just see sparks flying it's like we could
00:19:53
Chris
Yeah.
00:20:00
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's the fire chief said Monday, right? Yeah, Monday when he was on his way to work, the Cambridge Bridge, he was like, not a bit of snow, but there was a snow plow digging up asphalt.
00:20:13
lethargeus
sky then they yeah That way they have something to do of the spring where they can fix the roads.
00:20:17
Chris
Oh my gosh, yeah, it's, yeah.
00:20:23
lethargeus
Well, on to topic one.
00:20:23
Chris
I don't know.
00:20:25
lethargeus
know
00:20:25
Chris
Sure, topic one.
00:20:28
lethargeus
would be traditional to go with some sort of holiday or end of year theme, but I'm not going to do that.
00:20:33
Chris
Oh, curveball.
00:20:34
lethargeus
Yeah, I'm card-balling it.
00:20:35
Chris
Okay.
00:20:36
lethargeus
I'm going to talk about the probably the hot button topic and how I basically changed my entire viewpoint of it today.
00:20:44
Chris
Wow.
00:20:45
lethargeus
I obviously were living in 2025, the year of the AI, I would say.
00:20:49
Chris
Yeah. Oh, yeah.

AI and the Future of Creativity

00:20:51
lethargeus
And I was listening to some people and they were like, you know, this is going to kill artists and actors and blah, blah, and directors and writers and screenwriters, buh blah, blah, blah. This AI is terrible for all this. And i I sat there and I was thinking about it and something clicked in my head. I'm like, this is just the next evolution of YouTube.
00:21:11
lethargeus
Remember when YouTube became big and... oh this is the death of tv and you know it's it's not the death of tv or it's not the death of entertainment it's the death of the big business of this crap this allows people i because i'm one of the absolutely was like if i wanted to make a halo themed ai movie i could just do that now
00:21:17
Chris
Yeah.
00:21:25
Chris
Right.
00:21:37
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
00:21:39
lethargeus
you know Sure, i could get sued for it, right?
00:21:42
Chris
yeah we're gonna find you
00:21:42
lethargeus
But yeah I could, think I find me, but I could just make the fanfic that I've always wanted to have of of Halo.
00:21:46
Chris
ah
00:21:51
lethargeus
Or, you know, this is just that next iteration of that world. And it really changed my viewpoint on this whole AI thing. Because, you know, I had this whole conversation with someone who, her and I do not agree with what AI is going to do to society.
00:22:07
Chris
yeah yeah
00:22:07
lethargeus
and know you I do think it's going to change how people get paid jobs because they just won't some of these jobs won't exist anymore.
00:22:14
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
00:22:15
lethargeus
But the guys who shovel coal for trains, they don't have jobs anymore either.
00:22:19
Chris
Right, yeah, that's what i was going to say. I mean, every time there's been an iteration of the workforce, it's eliminated some jobs because, yeah, that's just, like you said, yeah we don't have people shoveling coal anymore. you know we don't have... um mean, look at self-check.
00:22:36
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:22:37
Chris
I mean...
00:22:37
lethargeus
Self-check. When you go to a grocery store now and self-check's not there, i could i get annoyed.
00:22:43
Chris
I just walk out.
00:22:44
lethargeus
Right? It's like, god I'm not doing this.
00:22:45
Chris
I throw my groceries at the kitchen. I'm like, no, don't need these and walk away.
00:22:50
lethargeus
But like you know they act like tomorrow Tom Cruise isn't going to get his 38th million dollar movie.
00:22:57
Chris
yeah
00:22:57
lethargeus
Which... which
00:22:59
Chris
And you know what? Maybe that's a good thing. Because maybe that'll bring some of the pricing down on certain things.
00:23:04
lethargeus
Yeah, and and maybe that will make entertainment affordable again.
00:23:09
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:23:10
lethargeus
You know? oh And maybe it makes space for good movies again.
00:23:18
Chris
yeah
00:23:19
lethargeus
Because I feel like right now, my biggest complaint about movies is good movies don't get made because just like the game industry, no one's willing to take a risk.
00:23:19
Chris
yeah
00:23:29
Chris
oh yeah yeah mean so many developers say that you are so much uh better off doing a sequel or something like that than you are starting a new ip yeah which yeah it's yeah
00:23:30
lethargeus
Right? Like, no...
00:23:44
lethargeus
and and every movie you see is just a sequel to something else you know and it's like the knives out movie that's coming out which i like the first knives out
00:23:50
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:23:53
Chris
Hmm.
00:23:56
Chris
Is it... It's out tonight, I think, ah isn't it?
00:24:00
lethargeus
maybe i don't know i don't pay attention to these things ah but you know it's
00:24:01
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Hmm.
00:24:06
lethargeus
It's the third iteration Knives Out, which is fine, but like can we make other movies out there?
00:24:09
Chris
Yeah.
00:24:12
lethargeus
Do I need to see Mission Impossible 13? I think they're all the same. you know Maybe...
00:24:18
Chris
Well, you know, at one point, Tom Cruise is going to have that psycho run that he always does. Oh, no.
00:24:24
lethargeus
did you think?
00:24:24
Chris
Knives Out 3 has been out for a week. Came out last, ah the 12th. Yeah.
00:24:29
lethargeus
But I would think that Tom Cruise wants to be in other projects. I would think. I don't know. I don't know the man personally. He doesn't call me much anymore.
00:24:38
Chris
Well, I mean, yeah, we need to do Days of Thunder Part 2. Uh. Hmm.
00:24:47
lethargeus
I just, I think it's, I think this is just the popularization of the YouTube generation that's just going to next version is now AI. And I'm kind of down for it.
00:24:59
Chris
yeah yeah I yeah I've kind of been of the oh yeah you know it's gonna take work from artists and stuff but on the other hand like the other day I was scrolling through social media and I saw this video and i was like oh my god this looks so cool and it was like ah they had redone the Transformers movie one shall stand one shall fall montage but like with more realistic looking optimists and everything i was like this is amazing and i looked i was like but it's ai i was like but it's still really cool looking yeah yeah
00:25:35
lethargeus
Yeah, it could just be cool. yeah i I think that's kind of my viewpoint now is it can just be something cool. and'm really I'm more interested to see what a talented person can do with it.
00:25:49
Chris
yeah
00:25:49
lethargeus
no i'm not I'm less interested in what the 1970s screenwriters that are still holding you know the bags on this do versus having some amazing AI artist. Why can't and why can't that person be an AI artist?
00:26:05
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:26:07
lethargeus
i I'm interested to see maybe new books are written by AI.
00:26:14
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:26:16
lethargeus
Seems like something could happen.
00:26:17
Chris
Yeah.
00:26:18
lethargeus
No.
00:26:18
Chris
Which side tangent to that. I finally watched Blade Runner the other day.
00:26:23
lethargeus
Which one?
00:26:24
Chris
The original.
00:26:25
lethargeus
Oh, okay.
00:26:26
Chris
I had never watched it before.
00:26:26
lethargeus
Sure. That's...
00:26:29
Chris
That movie is weird.
00:26:31
lethargeus
That movie's amazing.
00:26:33
Chris
But it's weird.
00:26:34
lethargeus
It's one of my top four films of sci-fi films, at least. It's so good. Yeah, it's weird. It was definitely in that that worldview that Asia was going to take over, you know, and we were going to be living in this.
00:26:49
Chris
so yeah hey
00:26:54
lethargeus
But they're not really that far off of what Tokyo kind of looks like today.
00:26:59
Chris
yeah maybe
00:27:01
lethargeus
You know, if you look at Blade Runner from maybe, and look at Tokyo today, they look pretty close.
00:27:12
Chris
Yeah.
00:27:12
lethargeus
I mean, there's not as many androids running around, but,
00:27:13
Chris
Yeah.
00:27:15
Chris
Not as many.
00:27:18
lethargeus
you know, 82, yeah.
00:27:19
Chris
82. Yeah.
00:27:22
lethargeus
But that's that that Japanese samurai, you know, tech future world thing.
00:27:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:27:29
lethargeus
it it kind It kind of looks like that over there.
00:27:33
Chris
Yeah. Wait, it was because I've been playing cyberpunk. i was like, oh, finally watch Blade Runner.
00:27:38
lethargeus
fair, I can see the connection.
00:27:39
Chris
Oh. Yeah. Yeah.
00:27:42
lethargeus
It's such a good movie that gets ruined by the nerds who love Blade Runner.
00:27:48
Chris
Why? How do they ruin it?
00:27:49
lethargeus
Oh, they're always looking for hidden meaning and all the, you know, just enjoy the mystery of the movie.
00:27:52
Chris
God.
00:27:56
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:27:58
lethargeus
is my view.
00:27:58
Chris
Just enjoy the movie.
00:28:00
lethargeus
Just enjoy a Harrison Ford movie that was made in the 80s that didn't spawn 14 sequels.
00:28:08
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:28:11
lethargeus
That's prime Harrison Ford too. It's like right after Empire.
00:28:13
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:28:14
lethargeus
like Yeah, right?
00:28:15
Chris
Yep.
00:28:19
lethargeus
Because Jedi was in 83.
00:28:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:28:21
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
00:28:24
Chris
Yeah. Nestled right in the middle.
00:28:29
lethargeus
It is crazy that he's the one out of that series that had a career.
00:28:34
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:28:36
lethargeus
mean, I know he's had a voice acting career.
00:28:37
Chris
Well, Mark Hamill did. He has a tremendous voice acting career.
00:28:42
lethargeus
And the the accident kind of ruined his acting, or at least set it back.
00:28:46
Chris
Yeah.
00:28:49
lethargeus
Which he looks good now because he has a that beard, which kind of covers up the scars.
00:28:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:28:53
lethargeus
oh But...

Mark Hamill's Career After Accident

00:28:56
lethargeus
Sometimes I feel like with Mark Hamill, like, actually, i feel this way with most voice actors. feel like they just get into the gig of voice actors, and then once they're in, they just use them in everything.
00:29:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:29:09
lethargeus
Which is, you know, I guess how everything works.
00:29:13
Chris
Right.
00:29:13
lethargeus
Because it's a lot easier.
00:29:13
Chris
Well, now they'll just use AI for everything.
00:29:17
lethargeus
Thank you.
00:29:20
lethargeus
Kinda.
00:29:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:29:22
lethargeus
You know, I could probably make an AI bottle of your voice after all the words you got on the internet.
00:29:26
Chris
Oh yeah.
00:29:27
lethargeus
And, you know, I could call your daughter but like, I need you give me all this money.
00:29:28
Chris
huh Yeah.
00:29:33
lethargeus
You know. She'd be like, all right, I'll go kill the old man. Yeah.
00:29:42
lethargeus
just, I...
00:29:43
Chris
Side tangent to that. One of the guys at work today was talking about his kids were like, you know, oh, you know, with this and that, trying to explain to them how much things cost and, you know, well, yeah daddy, you're worth all this money.
00:29:44
lethargeus
Oh, God.
00:29:58
Chris
And the mom was like, well, he's actually worth more dead than he is alive because of insurance and everything. And the kid goes, is he really not like upset, but like interested.
00:30:07
lethargeus
Oh
00:30:07
Chris
I was like, yeah, you got to watch your back, bud.
00:30:10
lethargeus
boy.
00:30:12
Chris
ah
00:30:13
lethargeus
It's always been my view on life insurance for my wife is, look, I want you to be comfortable, but I'm not worth enough dead for you to kill me.
00:30:21
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:30:23
lethargeus
You hear that wife?
00:30:24
Chris
Yeah.
00:30:26
lethargeus
She's always listening.
00:30:28
Chris
Mm hmm. Always listening.
00:30:29
lethargeus
Yeah. Always. Yeah. Yeah, I'm very excited to see. i well i some of the spurred this was that I guess one of the apps of AI creators that just paid a billion dollars to Disney.
00:30:44
lethargeus
So now anybody can use that app and make license-free Disney IPs.
00:30:50
Chris
Really?
00:30:51
lethargeus
Yeah. So you want to and so you can let make a 10 second clip or something license free. But if you want to make a 10 second Darth Vader duels Spider-Man, you can do that.
00:31:05
lethargeus
Maybe not Spider-Man. There's so many. I don't know how that works.
00:31:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:31:08
lethargeus
Captain America, you know, but you could do that now.
00:31:14
lethargeus
Because the first thing I think, was like, man. Master Chief versus, you know, any Avenger.
00:31:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:31:22
lethargeus
You know.
00:31:24
Chris
Yeah. Pick AI generator like open art ease mate AI, Leonardo AI or magic hour search for and look for Disney Pixar, Disney filter or cartoon option.
00:31:35
Chris
Type in your text. And off you go.
00:31:37
lethargeus
Mm-hmm.
00:31:38
Chris
Hmm.
00:31:39
lethargeus
Yeah, I mean, you you basically just give prompts and say, this is what I wanted to do.
00:31:39
Chris
Hmm.
00:31:45
Chris
Wow.
00:31:45
lethargeus
you know And some people will use that as, i want i want to write a story and I want that story to come visualize. And some people will be like, just do what you do and I'll work from there.
00:31:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:31:57
lethargeus
you know
00:31:58
Chris
Right.
00:31:59
lethargeus
But just like anything, I think some people will do amazing things with it and some people will do... hello know
00:32:04
Chris
Not so... great things with it.
00:32:06
lethargeus
right Return of the Skywalkers or the fuck that movie was going.
00:32:08
Chris
yeah Oh gosh.
00:32:12
lethargeus
You know?

Chris
You know that came out 10 years ago.
00:32:16
lethargeus
um my god.
00:32:18
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:32:21
lethargeus
Weren't they working on like a whole new like series with her after she shit the bed and said that she never wanted Star Wars again and then she didn't have a career after that.
00:32:26
Chris
Oh yeah. Yeah.
00:32:30
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:33
Chris
Yeah.
00:32:35
Chris
Yeah. God.
00:32:39
lethargeus
Wars is a weird one. You would think it would launch your career into things.
00:32:42
Chris
Right. Well, when it's a crappy version of it. Yeah.
00:32:49
lethargeus
Yeah, but I thought the... What's her name? Felicity Jones? From Rogue One? That's her?
00:32:59
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:33:00
lethargeus
That's That's Jyn Ersar? Yeah. I thought she would i go from Rogue One to do amazing shit. yeah I haven't seen her since.
00:33:08
Chris
like five people watched Rogue One.
00:33:12
lethargeus
Brook One is an amazing movie.
00:33:15
Chris
The last five, ten minutes of it are.
00:33:18
lethargeus
Oh my god.
00:33:22
Chris
i was like, when I was recuperating, I was like, maybe I'll try Andor season two. I watched ten minutes of it I was like, this is not for me.
00:33:30
lethargeus
You know, it's a different Star it's a different star Wars world.
00:33:34
Chris
it Yeah. Well, also, I just I don't like that. actor
00:33:40
lethargeus
Oh, the guy plays Andor?
00:33:42
Chris
is yeah Cassian Andor. i i I don't like the Cassian Andor character. Yeah.
00:33:47
lethargeus
Hmm.
00:33:48
Chris
He's a whiny little prick.
00:33:50
lethargeus
He's a little whiny, especially in the first season.
00:33:52
Chris
Yeah.
00:33:53
lethargeus
That's fair.
00:33:53
Chris
Yeah. And again, if I'm watching or reading or playing star Wars, I want space magic and laser swords
00:34:04
lethargeus
And space battles.
00:34:06
Chris
and space battles.
00:34:07
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah. It's fair.
00:34:13
lethargeus
But Rogue One had all that.
00:34:15
Chris
the very end
00:34:17
lethargeus
it had Of all the movies, it has the best Darth Vader.
00:34:22
Chris
yeah at the very end that's what you talk about ai yeah i it was i wish that i could because we've all watched it that fan made obi-wan darth vader fight
00:34:35
lethargeus
hu
00:34:37
Chris
take a new hope, but inject that into it. So it just play seamlessly as I'm watching it.
00:34:42
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah, it would be...
00:34:48
lethargeus
nice to do that you know look i'm not blaming look i knew hope is what it is right like
00:34:50
Chris
Yeah.
00:34:53
Chris
Oh yeah. Yeah. I mean, they did what they did with the technology and the capabilities.
00:34:56
lethargeus
right they were using broomsticks at the time for god sakes but that would be something don't don't poke walkie talkies in the fbi age's hands do that shit you know but yeah and you haven't seen how he did the et
00:34:59
Chris
Yeah.
00:35:07
Chris
right yeah wait walkie-talkies in the fbi agents hands no
00:35:15
lethargeus
Yeah, to make it more friendly, they like re-released E.T. and all the other guns are replaced with walkie-talkies.
00:35:23
Chris
oh my gosh that's
00:35:27
lethargeus
Yeah. It's a little weird when the FBI agents are like holding weaver stances with walkie-talkies in their hands.
00:35:36
Chris
that's a weird way to hold your walkie-talkie huh no I haven't what
00:35:38
lethargeus
Yeah, it's a little weird. Yeah, I didn't he didn't know about that. Yeah. yeah
00:35:47
lethargeus
Or retake the 1997 remasters and remaster them by getting rid of all the bullshit that Lucas added and putting them back to the way they should be, but nicer looking.
00:35:57
Chris
oh my god yeah yes oh gosh some of that stuff
00:36:04
lethargeus
And, you know,
00:36:06
Chris
It was like, why? Why?
00:36:07
lethargeus
I would like to see Mark Hamill still get paid for re-relipped AI version of New Hope. Like, I don't want to take that away from him.
00:36:14
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:17
Chris
No.
00:36:18
lethargeus
but I would like to see it used to make those things better.
00:36:21
Chris
Right.
00:36:21
lethargeus
Cause it's hard to show your kids, not your kids, maybe yourre your kids' as kids, a new hope.
00:36:27
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:28
lethargeus
Cause it looks janky, you know, it's, it's very primitive visual effects, which when we saw it, we're blown away by, and these kids are like, well, let me show you my phone, old
00:36:29
Chris
It does. Yeah.
00:36:36
Chris
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

AI's Potential in Storytelling

00:36:42
lethargeus
man.
00:36:42
lethargeus
Or, you know,
00:36:43
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:45
lethargeus
I can show you a whole movie I just made in the Minecraft world.
00:36:49
Chris
Yeah.
00:36:49
lethargeus
You know, they're they're not going to be impressed by star Wars.
00:36:54
Chris
Right.
00:36:54
lethargeus
But the story is amazing, so just
00:36:56
Chris
Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Well, they did that in episode seven, eight, nine.
00:37:08
lethargeus
There was a whole like hour-long sequence of running through a casino for no real reason.
00:37:09
Chris
Oh, God.
00:37:14
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:17
lethargeus
There was like a horse donkey race thing, i sort of remember.
00:37:20
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:22
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:37:23
Chris
Somehow the knife, the ancient knife had the exact layouts of the Death Star crash.
00:37:27
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that was weird.
00:37:33
Chris
Yeah, yeah, okay.
00:37:33
lethargeus
Yeah. Yeah. Also, how would the Death Star even be in any sort of pieces after blowing up? But yeah, whatever.
00:37:44
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:45
lethargeus
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:46
Chris
I mean, Emperor's Throne's still pristine. And the Emperor building all those ships in secret.
00:37:49
lethargeus
Right, yeah, yeah, yeah. and
00:37:56
lethargeus
Well, I mean, I could have bought into some of that stuff.
00:37:57
Chris
m
00:38:01
Chris
Some of it, but... the dead Yeah, that was God.
00:38:02
lethargeus
Some of it. But that the the knife thing was...
00:38:05
Chris
Yeah. um that was definitely
00:38:08
lethargeus
And pretty much everything they did with Luke was...
00:38:08
Chris
a oh god yeah
00:38:12
lethargeus
Just...
00:38:16
Chris
And they had material there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:38:22
lethargeus
I was even...
00:38:23
Chris
Mara Jade. The twins. The next. Oh, God.
00:38:28
lethargeus
You totally could have said Luke is retired. right He's raised Leia's kids.
00:38:34
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:38:37
lethargeus
right We could have we couldve had that universe.
00:38:40
Chris
Yeah.
00:38:40
lethargeus
Instead, we had Palpatine's kid who no one had ever heard of before have a kid.
00:38:48
Chris
Yeah.
00:38:49
lethargeus
weird, whatever.
00:38:49
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:38:53
lethargeus
But she's a Skywalker now. ah
00:38:57
Chris
Well, and I was just, you know, at the first, I was hoping, was like, oh, you know, maybe it's one of those, like, you know, Game of Thrones, where it's like, oh, you know, you're a bastard child, you don't have parents, you're a Skywalker.
00:39:13
lethargeus
Right. Yeah.
00:39:14
Chris
Nope.
00:39:15
lethargeus
Nope.
00:39:15
Chris
Nope.
00:39:15
lethargeus
Nope.
00:39:16
Chris
Nope.
00:39:17
lethargeus
Nope.
00:39:20
lethargeus
it's bad Well, fix it with ai
00:39:22
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. I... Fix it with... Yeah. AI, fix fix it.
00:39:29
lethargeus
AI. Just give us the Star Wars movie we want.
00:39:31
Chris
Oh my god. God. Yeah, I wonder what that would happen if... Yeah, until you go to AI and say, hey, can you fix Star Wars Episode 7, 8, and 9? It comes back.
00:39:41
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:39:42
Chris
I got nothing. I got nothing.
00:39:44
lethargeus
Yeah, he tries to commit suicide.
00:39:46
Chris
Yeah.
00:39:46
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:39:47
Chris
and Wasn't you telling me that one of the AIs, like they have to reset it every now and again.
00:39:51
lethargeus
Yeah, because it gets suicidal.
00:39:53
Chris
my gosh, that's, that's crazy.
00:39:54
lethargeus
Yes. ChatGPT gets suicidal.
00:39:59
Chris
Well, part of that I'm sure is because people use chat GPT like they use Google search.
00:40:04
lethargeus
Yes.
00:40:05
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:06
lethargeus
Yes. Well, of the problem is there's AI and then there's chat GPT and then there's, you know, like we just don't have a real good nebulous of what we're using this stuff for.
00:40:07
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:16
Chris
Yeah.

Technology in Car Repairs

00:40:17
lethargeus
Google Copilot isn't really AI. It's just a goddamn search engine, right?
00:40:20
Chris
Oh, yeah.
00:40:21
lethargeus
You know, it's just a search engine that's slightly less good.
00:40:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:40:27
lethargeus
Can we interest you in this thing that's not as good as the thing that you were going to type in, but we're going to suggest things that weren't the thing you were looking for.
00:40:32
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:40:35
lethargeus
Cool.
00:40:36
Chris
God. Somebody the other day. Oh, yeah. It was the captain working today. i love him to death. But the other day, he's like, ah I typed it into Bing. And this is like, I was like, you typed it into what?
00:40:50
Chris
He's like, well, yeah, I mean, I use yeah this, this, what's this little sort of the Microsoft thing. I was like, oh, you animal use Chrome.
00:41:01
lethargeus
I think I'm trying to think. I don't think we have Chrome on the work PCs.
00:41:07
Chris
You should, because that's what IT pushed admin to use.
00:41:08
lethargeus
Do
00:41:14
lethargeus
Because I use Chrome at home, and I'm pretty sure we use Explorer at work.
00:41:20
Chris
Really?
00:41:21
lethargeus
I don't think we have been Chrome on there.
00:41:23
Chris
Well, out there at Station 1, you guys still have dial-up, don't you? Pigeons!
00:41:27
lethargeus
No, we actually have pigeons. And the pigeons, they fly into town, pick up the data bits, bring them back, dump them into the bit box.
00:41:31
Chris
Rocks clacking together.
00:41:37
lethargeus
I look at them, and then I send out the pigeons again. They're very busy.
00:41:41
Chris
very busy pigeons.
00:41:44
lethargeus
Very busy. Yes.
00:41:45
Chris
You know, there there are some days that would probably be better than the communications we get.
00:41:50
lethargeus
Yes. yes
00:41:53
Chris
Golly day.
00:41:54
lethargeus
I had this thought the other day that if I didn't look to i look at my email for like three months, I don't think I would miss anything important.
00:42:05
Chris
Hmm. Three months.
00:42:09
lethargeus
Three months is maybe pushing it.
00:42:11
Chris
Okay.
00:42:11
lethargeus
But boy, i could I can tell you if like four people don't send me the email, I don't really need to look at it. Like if it doesn't come from the fire chief, the deputy chief or my boss, I really don't need to read that email.
00:42:27
Chris
yeah yeah but then you miss out on the reply alls
00:42:29
lethargeus
The. ah the Yep. Yep, I do.
00:42:37
lethargeus
Two of the city and higher ups are permanently in my spam filter.
00:42:44
Chris
let me guess uh one is jordan yep okay uh and the other is probably associated with thrive
00:42:49
lethargeus
Is that the guy that does the Motivation Monday crap? Yep. Yep.
00:42:58
lethargeus
That's the third one that's in there.
00:43:00
Chris
okay yeah
00:43:01
lethargeus
the one The other one is is retiring in August.
00:43:06
lethargeus
I don't even know what her job title is. Donna. Yeah, yeah. Write this, ma'am.
00:43:15
lethargeus
I don't need to know the information that comes out of her mouth or emails.
00:43:18
Chris
but it's that's that's the direct pipeline to the mayor's office
00:43:22
lethargeus
Yep. I said what I said. Yep.
00:43:25
Chris
h
00:43:29
lethargeus
Yep.
00:43:32
Chris
there There was somebody the other day that hit a reply all. um And I can't remember what the exact email was. But I heard the fire chief say, what in the fuck are you doing?
00:43:46
Chris
i just like I'm just going to sit here and type. don't know what's happening.
00:43:51
lethargeus
Was it one of our deputy chiefs who replies all to everything?
00:43:54
Chris
Probably. Probably.
00:43:58
Chris
Yeah. It's like if the old man is fussing. Nope. Nope, that's not good.
00:44:03
lethargeus
Yeah, don't get involved.
00:44:04
Chris
Yeah. So,
00:44:06
lethargeus
i I accidentally hit reply all to an email that was between like the four officers on D-Shift. was like, nope, not sending this. Delete, delete, delete.
00:44:15
Chris
yeah.
00:44:17
lethargeus
I meant that don't need to do this.
00:44:19
Chris
Yeah. I had to teach somebody the other day about, you know, the writing multiple emails before you send one. Like, what are you talking about? i was like, oh, yeah, there's a lot of times I don't send my first draft nor my second.
00:44:34
Chris
But the third, I've gotten my anger out because my first email is usually like, who in the hell do you think you are?
00:44:41
lethargeus
well my rule generally is just don't email angry yeah it's just easier in life yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
00:44:44
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But something, sometimes it is cathartic to like type it out. Yeah. Let's say you type it on a word document or something, not in your email in case you accidentally hit send.
00:44:59
lethargeus
and but there's ah there's a person on my shift who I would just send the email to yeah
00:45:02
Chris
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. ah yeah ah
00:45:10
lethargeus
Well, move on to topic two before we get ourselves in trouble.
00:45:12
Chris
Sure. Topic two. um So I got to think about this recently um and mainly because I've been watching this guy's videos on YouTube and I first came across him on social media. He goes out and he finds like these old cars, trucks, things like that. and He's like, you know, i want to see if I can get it running and get it off the property.
00:45:36
Chris
He'll buy like a 72 pickup, sight unseen, drive 500 miles and just see what he can do with it. And that's great.
00:45:48
Chris
But you can't do that with vehicles and stuff now. It's like, are there things we need to tech detox from? Like automobiles, things like that.
00:45:59
lethargeus
Pretty much anything built before 2010. We just get there away.
00:46:03
Chris
Yeah. I, I, cause I mean, I like to tinker sometimes, but I can't tinker on anything new. Cause everything's a computer, everything.
00:46:16
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:46:16
Chris
If there's one little thing off, it throws the entire system off as it, you know, used to be yeah. yeah Make sure it's got fuel, it's got oil and it's got spark runs.
00:46:27
lethargeus
I...

Safety Innovations in Firefighting Gear

00:46:29
lethargeus
I'm going to say something controversially that could get me a lot of trouble in the world, I'm assuming.
00:46:31
Chris
No. Yeah.
00:46:33
lethargeus
But I think there should be an expiration date on cars.
00:46:40
Chris
Really?
00:46:41
lethargeus
Yeah. Especially anything built before 2010-ish is a death trap.
00:46:44
Chris
Well, that's why people have historic tags, Ron.
00:46:51
lethargeus
Right. Well, that really helps you when you run into a tractor trailer and die. yep You know, like, I had a car in the 80s.
00:46:57
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:00
lethargeus
Well, it was from the 80s. I wouldn't drive it in the It was the 90s.
00:47:02
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:03
lethargeus
It had rack and pinion steering and and manual transmission.
00:47:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:47:06
lethargeus
And you could...
00:47:07
Chris
Oh, my God. Rack and pinion steering.
00:47:10
lethargeus
That thing was a hunk of junk, right?
00:47:12
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
00:47:15
lethargeus
We... You know, I can remember I had to replace the boot on that car twice, right? Because it got tears and it gummed up the steering and if you just try to turn the steering wheel and go, you know, there it's a hunk of junk.
00:47:32
lethargeus
Wow, they don't make cars like that. Good.
00:47:36
Chris
yeah
00:47:36
lethargeus
People, you know, I, aesthetically, i can, I see the appeal of the body shape of a 65 Mustang or something like that.
00:47:47
lethargeus
you know that
00:47:48
Chris
Yeah, they're beautiful cars.
00:47:49
lethargeus
like Beautiful cars. But if you run into my Subaru, my Subaru is not going to even notice it and you're going to be a flaming wreck.
00:47:53
Chris
Hmm.
00:47:57
Chris
I don't know, though.
00:47:59
lethargeus
Yes, I do.
00:48:01
Chris
no, no, no, no. Because I think if it's those 60s to 70s vehicles, you're probably going to be fine. Because they were like nothing but steel.
00:48:09
lethargeus
Yeah, but you are not steel inside of that cage with no seatbelt and no airbags.
00:48:14
Chris
There's a seatbelt.
00:48:15
lethargeus
Okay. There's a small string that is bolted into the cushion.
00:48:17
Chris
There's a lap belt.
00:48:22
lethargeus
It's not even into the frame of the vehicle. It's literally into the cushion of the car because if you pull those seats out, this stuff the lap belt comes with it.
00:48:24
Chris
ah yeah yeah
00:48:30
lethargeus
ah you know um You know it's right.
00:48:32
Chris
yeah know but's why you just don't get an accident
00:48:36
lethargeus
ahraths Clearly the answer.
00:48:40
Chris
yeah i i'm talking more like yeah not like a daily driver but like just to screw around with and stuff
00:48:46
lethargeus
I mean, like I said, I appreciate the beauty of those vehicles.
00:48:49
Chris
yeah yeah
00:48:50
lethargeus
I just don't think they should be on the road. You know, and the problem is every main jack idiot is like, well, I'm going to drive my 68 Chevelle.
00:49:02
lethargeus
That's, you know, got, or how about this? There's a Lieutenant on the shift after me who drives a car that is more rust and more holes than actual vehicle.
00:49:13
lethargeus
And he says to me the other day, it was a little tough in the snow because the back brakes aren't working.
00:49:19
Chris
Oh, that's safe.
00:49:20
lethargeus
Great. Maybe.
00:49:22
Chris
that's okay Maybe that's a sign.
00:49:23
lethargeus
we take we take that car and we we we take it up right we take it out to the farm and we let it go to sleep
00:49:27
Chris
We make an artificial reef out of it.
00:49:35
lethargeus
we don't we we don't need to tanker with that vehicle anymore it's it's it's done yeah i i i like
00:49:40
Chris
yeah Yeah, that's a thing. Yeah, like 30 years from now, do you think, you know, like tinkers and stuff like that gotta be a 84 honda hatchback i'm working on ah no
00:49:58
lethargeus
these morons will be like, oh man, I found a 1988 Jetta and it's in great condition. You could tell it never went anywhere near the beach. I gotta find me the plastic knob for the fucking radio so it match perfect.
00:50:15
lethargeus
Come on. they're not They're not good. they're Everything made in the 80s is ugly. Everything made in the 80s was ugly.
00:50:25
Chris
Yeah.
00:50:27
lethargeus
Yeah, they're not pretty cars. I just... I don't... I don't... I don't like the tinkering as an excuse to, like, keep this shitbox on the road.
00:50:41
lethargeus
i appreciate the tinkering to tinker. But, boy...
00:50:45
Chris
Yeah.
00:50:47
lethargeus
can't, like... I...
00:50:48
Chris
Oh my God. i So I Googled 80s cars, you know classics. Oh my gosh. Yeah, there were some ugly. Oh God. I remember how bad the Mustangs looked.
00:50:59
lethargeus
Oh, the Fastback Mustangs. Oh, with the fuel intake.
00:51:02
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:03
lethargeus
They were terrible. They look like ass.
00:51:04
Chris
Yeah. yeah Oh, the DeLorean is a hell of a nice looking car.
00:51:06
lethargeus
every
00:51:10
lethargeus
My dad had a 1986 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme with red... velvet-ish interior right like it was it was a brown car with red interior it was the ugliest thing my mother had 81 ford zephyr station wagon it was yellow with yellow vinyl seats and chrome a thousand molten degrees seat belts yeah we're talking about that at work
00:51:23
Chris
Yeah.
00:51:37
Chris
uh oh yeah yep yeah and those seats that would get so hot and then they would crack and slice you wide open
00:51:50
lethargeus
we all i said i remember being four years old in my mother's station wagon and we didn't have car seats okay that didn't they didn't exist we had a hold on for your butt seat belt and i can remember sliding across the bench you know the bench seat it's that they're terrible they're death traps
00:52:02
Chris
no oh
00:52:09
Chris
Mm-hmm.
00:52:13
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:52:19
Chris
Yeah.
00:52:20
lethargeus
but that's That's the thing that we have gotten right as progressing. Safety has gotten better you know in almost everything.
00:52:29
Chris
Yeah.
00:52:29
lethargeus
You touch my fire helmet, I'm coming for your face. But that's
00:52:36
Chris
Yeah, I got thinking about that the other day. i was like, can you imagine if we stopped ordering the, even just the morning, the, whatever we get now, the Ben 2s or 1010s, whatever, and switch to the Euro styles.
00:52:51
lethargeus
Oh, you have a...
00:52:52
Chris
Oh my God.
00:52:53
lethargeus
Look, i'm I'm... I'm ready to fight three people in the fire department on a daily basis about these new fronts and the SFD on the back of our fire gear. So, you know, you give me a Eurohub, but I'm not sure.
00:53:07
Chris
that's That's the straw.
00:53:09
lethargeus
um might be the straw.
00:53:12
Chris
All right.
00:53:12
lethargeus
And look...
00:53:13
Chris
So Station 1 is switching to Euro helmets with somehow having a Boston front and the SFD in the back.
00:53:17
lethargeus
The...
00:53:21
lethargeus
The worst part is i can't even argue. If the fire chief came out and said, you guys have to get rid of your leathers
00:53:30
lethargeus
and you have to go to these safer helmets, you really don't have a good argument.
00:53:34
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:34
lethargeus
You know? It's...
00:53:36
Chris
Yeah.
00:53:38
lethargeus
But boy, my helmet is...
00:53:41
Chris
I wonder if I could, I wonder if I could talk to the city administrator and say, yeah, we will save X number of dollars a year. Oh my gosh.
00:53:51
Chris
That's going be like the last thing I do before I leave.
00:53:54
lethargeus
Yeah, but no, because somebody's going to hear this podcast and they're gonna be like you were involved in it. And then I was going to be good. going to be burned. That's not going to be to me.
00:54:06
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:09
Chris
Well, so you're talking about, yeah. the whole tech detox or whatever, think about how much easier it used to be to pump a fire engine.
00:54:19
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:54:20
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:21
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:54:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:23
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:54:24
Chris
Yeah.
00:54:24
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:54:27
lethargeus
Yeah. Do you think that's a problem of too much technology involved or is it a problem of we have to add more widgets to make it justify the $1.6 million dollars cost for fire engine?
00:54:45
Chris
I think it's both. It's just like the, the, yeah.
00:54:49
lethargeus
Because I really like the digital governors. you know That's a nice, handy...
00:54:55
Chris
Right. But now that, now that you have Bluetooth nozzles.
00:55:02
lethargeus
like That's a step too far for me.
00:55:04
Chris
Yeah.
00:55:05
lethargeus
you know
00:55:05
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:55:07
lethargeus
I say that all the time. that the The worst thing about the fire department is we're always trying to reinvent shit just to reinvent shit.
00:55:15
Chris
yeah it's like that it's like the stupid demo that a certain shift is doing with these specialty nozzles or as a blade instead of a it puts wet stuff on the red stuff
00:55:15
lethargeus
you know Very rarely...
00:55:29
lethargeus
Yeah. the The best part with that conversation to me is like, you guys are just doing shit that was done 30 years ago.
00:55:33
Chris
<unk>
00:55:37
lethargeus
You're not reinventing anything.
00:55:37
Chris
yeah
00:55:39
lethargeus
It's just some company is like, look, we came up with this thing.
00:55:42
Chris
yeah that whole blade thing guess what my adjustable nozzle in my you know garden hose has that yeah
00:55:49
lethargeus
Yes, it does. yeah i
00:55:54
lethargeus
I just think, but fire engines are safer than they used to be. You know, you know if if you think about the oldest fire engine in our fleet and think about even Engine 1, which is the second oldest, there is a big leap in technology and the safety of that thing.
00:56:00
Chris
yeah
00:56:11
Chris
yeah
00:56:16
Chris
yeah
00:56:16
lethargeus
You know, one of those things probably shouldn't even be on the road anymore, you know, going to calls.
00:56:19
Chris
yeah what's it we were talking about phasing it out and people are like up in arms uh again it yeah i i don't know ron i don't know well we we took it on 72 calls last year out of cool next
00:56:26
lethargeus
Why?
00:56:31
lethargeus
I'm the last one who gets to...
00:56:40
lethargeus
we We had that talk the other day and I said, every idiot around us has a tanker.
00:56:40
Chris
ah
00:56:47
lethargeus
We don't need a tanker.
00:56:48
Chris
Yeah.
00:56:49
lethargeus
Well, we need to get a straight tanker with 30,000 gallons.
00:56:49
Chris
Yeah.
00:56:53
Chris
Why?
00:56:54
lethargeus
Just in case Mad Max happens.
00:56:55
Chris
i can tell you.
00:56:56
lethargeus
i don't What do you guys want?
00:56:56
Chris
Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I can tell you as, you know, talking with the higher ups in the city, like you said earlier, they're worried about the municipality and the municipality has a hydro system.
00:57:07
lethargeus
Right.
00:57:10
lethargeus
We have hydrants everywhere.
00:57:11
Chris
Yeah.
00:57:12
lethargeus
And even outside the municipality, hydrants are pushing out.
00:57:13
Chris
Yeah.
00:57:16
Chris
Yeah.
00:57:17
lethargeus
So even in our outlying areas, we're getting hydrants. And outside of the areas where there are hydrants, they're single family homes.
00:57:21
Chris
Yeah.
00:57:26
Chris
Yeah.
00:57:26
lethargeus
We're bringing a thousand plus gallons of water already.
00:57:29
Chris
Yeah. Right.
00:57:32
lethargeus
We're good.
00:57:32
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Well, you talk about the hydrants moving out and everything.
00:57:33
lethargeus
If we... can
00:57:35
Chris
I had this argument with somebody. I can't believe that it's so hard to get a septic system now. i was like, do you think it's good to just flush your turds into your yu lawn?
00:57:47
lethargeus
And then leave it and never catch it.
00:57:47
Chris
last That's not how a septic system works. I said, It is.
00:57:52
lethargeus
It's a cesspool in the back of your yard. you
00:57:53
Chris
it is that slowly leaks out into your yard.
00:57:57
lethargeus
yeah What do you think the leech field part of that thing means?
00:58:00
Chris
my God. I just. Yeah.
00:58:04
lethargeus
Yeah.
00:58:04
Chris
yeah You know what?
00:58:05
lethargeus
Yeah. Oh.
00:58:06
Chris
I flushed the toilet and it is gone.
00:58:06
lethargeus
Right.
00:58:08
Chris
And it is the city's problem after that.
00:58:11
lethargeus
and And you guys happen to live in the mountains where the water table really, really like far away from the ground level, right?
00:58:16
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
00:58:20
lethargeus
Oh, no, no, that's right.
00:58:20
Chris
Uh, yeah.
00:58:21
lethargeus
The water table is three inches below the topsoil. Freaking shore-bellied morons.
00:58:26
Chris
Uh, it's been, it's been dry lately. It's like five inches.
00:58:33
Chris
yeah.
00:58:33
lethargeus
You all live in the swamp.
00:58:35
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Although I, I don't know. I guess it's cause it's colder weather, but yeah. City of Fruitland has been pumping water in from like Juneau, Alaska. Cause God, the tap water is like negative five when you turn it on.
00:58:52
lethargeus
Well, you know, they want you to wake up in the morning.
00:58:54
Chris
Well, as somebody who has to get up and pee a couple of times throughout the night now, that's a wake up call. Yeah. Yeah.
00:59:03
lethargeus
What you need to do is put like a preemptive Ranae in.
00:59:07
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:08
lethargeus
Yeah, where it knows like
00:59:09
Chris
yeah That's what I'll start to wind When I get up to pee, I have to urgently pee. I'm go to take the time to turn the tap on to hot and then pee.
00:59:18
lethargeus
No, what I'm saying is you need to get your Renai reprogrammed so that between the hours of like 9 to 6 in the morning, it's got a pre-loaded bolus of hot water that just pumps in lines all night.
00:59:18
Chris
Maybe that's.
00:59:31
Chris
Ah. Gotcha.
00:59:33
lethargeus
may cost you a little more money, but you know, you you've got type cheap money.
00:59:34
Chris
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't have a Renai.
00:59:40
lethargeus
Well, you know, time to get one.
00:59:41
Chris
Time to get one.
00:59:43
lethargeus
ah feel like we're I feel like we're solving these problems.
00:59:43
Chris
Yeah.
00:59:47
Chris
I read
00:59:49
lethargeus
Get yourself a Rina, get yourself a bidet, you know, you'll be living a better life.
00:59:53
Chris
somewhere that i read somewhere that It's like their code that they have to put a bidet in every bathroom.
01:00:03
lethargeus
The worst part of it is it makes so much more sense. I've never used one. I'm so afraid.
01:00:10
Chris
Neither have I. Yeah. so Yeah. Italy.
01:00:13
lethargeus
but I'm afraid for two reasons. One, it could just be weird. Two, I might like it so much that I won't be able to use anything else.
01:00:21
Chris
yeah yeah
01:00:23
lethargeus
Yeah, that's the real problem. i mean
01:00:27
Chris
italy Italy has mandated bidets since 1970.
01:00:31
lethargeus
Yeah, well, you think about like toilet paper just jamming up your systems everywhere.
01:00:35
Chris
Yeah, yeah.
01:00:36
lethargeus
Yeah.
01:00:38
Chris
Huh.
01:00:38
lethargeus
and you You know, you gotta ah you get a big three flusher. That's a lot of toilet paper in on the pipes.
01:00:41
Chris
Yeah. The good thing is in the US plumbing and safety code, there is a limit of 110 Fahrenheit for any bidet ah feed line.
01:00:54
lethargeus
Well, yeah, I mean, good. and know don't want really want my asshole scorched.
01:00:56
Chris
Hmm.
01:00:59
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. And in Australia, it's illegal for you to install your own bidet.
01:01:05
lethargeus
Well, also in Australia, the bidets are backwards.
01:01:08
Chris
That's, that's true. That's true. We learned that from the Simpsons.
01:01:12
lethargeus
We learned that for the Simpsons.
01:01:12
Chris
okay Yeah.
01:01:17
lethargeus
Yeah. Everybody knows that they're backwards.
01:01:19
Chris
Yeah. All right.
01:01:20
lethargeus
Yeah.
01:01:23
Chris
Uh, I just want know, when I get off this podcast, I'm going to look to try to find a 1972 pickup to buy.
01:01:30
lethargeus
Look, I know you. You're driving around in a staff car anyways. It doesn't matter what you got to tinker.
01:01:37
Chris
like Exactly. Yeah.
01:01:38
lethargeus
You might go buy your old 2002 Ram. What was that thing?
01:01:42
Chris
I didn't have a Ram.
01:01:42
lethargeus
was other
01:01:43
Chris
It was a three quarter ton.
01:01:43
lethargeus
What was that?
01:01:44
Chris
It was a three quarter ton GMC Sierra.
01:01:46
lethargeus
Whatever. It's all the same.
01:01:47
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. It was Bessie.
01:01:50
lethargeus
I can tell you as a non-redneck, the one thing as a non-redneck, I don't know what the fuck kind of trucks you guys are driving. You all act like it's like the biggest difference in the world.
01:01:57
Chris
Yeah.
01:01:58
lethargeus
I'm like, it's got a bed, four tires.
01:01:59
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
01:02:02
lethargeus
They're all the same. Sure.
01:02:04
Chris
Flip the breather cap over. He hit the gas. Goes. Yeah. Oh,
01:02:09
lethargeus
Sure.
01:02:13
lethargeus
It's not a world that I'm from.
01:02:13
Chris
yeah. Yeah.
01:02:15
lethargeus
And boy, does it, nothing makes sure abilities matter than people who just don't care about cars. it's Because the one person on my shift is always giving me shit about my car. I'm like, I don't care.
01:02:27
Chris
yeah it's a tool
01:02:27
lethargeus
My car gets from from point A to point B. I don't understand how you can live like that. Because it's a car.
01:02:35
Chris
ah peacefully uh uh
01:02:37
lethargeus
yeah It's not a member of the family. It's a car.
01:02:43
lethargeus
When I'm done with that one, I'll just get another one.
01:02:46
Chris
yeah well this is the same person though i think they're on like what their fourth new truck in the last six years yeah
01:02:53
lethargeus
ah that i and I made that comment to him. I said, you know, I've bought like three cars for the price of one of your trucks.
01:03:02
Chris
Yeah.
01:03:03
lethargeus
You know.
01:03:03
Chris
Probably just for the rims and tires.
01:03:05
lethargeus
He was looking at the rims of tires the other day.
01:03:07
Chris
Why?
01:03:09
lethargeus
I don't know. I was like, how much are these rims and tires? $6,000 for a per... You know how many rims I replaced in my car?
01:03:16
Chris
yeah
01:03:19
Chris
Done.
01:03:20
lethargeus
Zero.
01:03:21
Chris
Yeah.
01:03:21
lethargeus
In almost 30 years of driving.
01:03:25
Chris
Yeah.
01:03:27
lethargeus
Is that right?
01:03:28
Chris
Yeah, it is.
01:03:28
lethargeus
Oh my God.
01:03:29
Chris
Yeah. Yeah.
01:03:33
lethargeus
No, it's 30 years this year.
01:03:35
Chris
yeah yeah
01:03:36
lethargeus
It's 30 years and two weeks.
01:03:38
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. I thought that's what you were like, oh my gosh, about.
01:03:39
lethargeus
Oh my god.
01:03:41
Chris
Yeah. yeah
01:03:42
lethargeus
Oh.
01:03:43
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. Don't worry. I'll hit it first.

lethargeus
My god.
01:03:49
Chris
Yeah. yeah
01:03:49
lethargeus
I'm always glad that you're there to soften the blow for me.
01:03:51
Chris
Yeah. Well, I think that was a good cast to the pod.
01:04:01
lethargeus
What?
01:04:02
Chris
yeah
01:04:02
lethargeus
Yep.
01:04:03
Chris

lethargeus
And get it for a
