What happens when you mix the latest Marvel blockbuster, a whirlwind trip to Disneyland, and hilarious lice stories? You get a podcast episode that's packed with laughter, nostalgia, and some pretty unexpected twists. Join us as we swap tales from the chaotic Disneyland visit, where dance competitions and lunar new year festivities collided with our quest for the perfect dumpling. We also chat about the newest Captain America film and how Harrison Ford's addition to the Marvel Universe as Thunderbolt Ross might just be the shake-up we never knew we needed.
But that's not all! We're diving into the icy world of curling, laughing at the USA's loss to Sweden, and poking fun at those lovable Canadian stereotypes. From there, we take a trip down memory lane, recalling the itchy, unbearable days of childhood lice infestations and the bizarre home remedies we tried. And if you haven't already been sucked into the thrilling world of "Yellowjackets," we’ll tell you why this show has us glued to our screens well past bedtime.
As we wrap up, expect some lively debates on television storytelling and the fine line between fiction and reality. We'll tackle how shows like "Landman" handle real-world issues and the biases that might color their narratives. Rounding out the episode, we chat about the art of the Super Bowl halftime show, the hilarious antics of pop culture's quirkiest characters, and our latest travel plans to Japan. Whether you're here for the Marvel insights, TV critiques, or just a good laugh, this episode's got it all.

You can wear another one next week.
Speaker 2Peace, y'all what up.
Speaker 1Guess who's back. All three of us Back again.
Speaker 2Wow, first time in Three weeks.
Speaker 1Something, was it Two weeks? Well, no, three weeks.
Speaker 3It was me and Duke.
Speaker 1And then was it all three of us, and it was me and Lou right?
Speaker 2I think so yeah.
Speaker 3So next week it'll be me and Lou Please.
Speaker 1I would love that. Are you wanting a vacation? It would just be fun to go through and edit and everything not being involved.
Speaker 2I wonder what's coming up next. Oh, my goodness. Oh so Saw Captain. I mean no spoilers, because Duke hasn't seen it, but Saw Captain America today. Yeah, I thought it was fine.
Speaker 1I liked it. It doesn't move the universe forward. It doesn't as close as we are to new Avenger movies, something you start pushing probably going to be fantastic for, but we'll see yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, it, it was, it was there. I mean, it got reshot. How many times delayed for two years or whatever. So and it showed there's definitely some scenes where it's like that. And it showed there's definitely some scenes where it's like that.
Speaker 1It doesn't look like it fits there, but you know, I didn't mind it, I was going to say I didn't think it was bad, it was better than Thor 2.
Speaker 3What were your thoughts on Harrison Ford replacing William Hurt as Thunderbolt Ross?
Speaker 1I mean, yeah, they did the war machine thing. Oh, you shaved your mustache.
Speaker 3Ah, it's been. Well, it's been what? When did the Incredible Hulk come out?
Speaker 1That was, but he was also in fucking Infinity War Endgame when they signed the Sokovia Accords.
Speaker 3Oh, that's true.
Speaker 1He has been in Around.
Speaker 3He's been in the bubble.
Speaker 1Yeah, but overall it was good. I didn't have a problem with it. I probably should have watched the Incredible Hulk again.
Speaker 2That's probably all you. Well, if you didn't watch Falcon and Winter Soldier, you might be a little screwed too.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, for sure. Yeah, you should definitely watch that.
Speaker 3Yeah, I had a Guys I'm seeing it with tomorrow. We're talking about watching Winter Soldier and Civil War and that type of thing and I'm seeing it with tomorrow were talking about watching Winter Soldier and Civil War and that type of thing and I'm like, no, I guess I could see how. I mean, sure, watch them because they're good movies, but I don't think they're a prerequisite to you no Falcon and Winter Soldier and Incredible Hulk yeah that's sufficient.
Speaker 2Yeah, but if you're on.
Speaker 1Tightwad Tuesday, tomorrow then no time yeah there is that.
Speaker 3Yeah, we were. I mean it's, the theater is just too nutty to go on a weekend, on a Friday night or anything anymore.
Speaker 2I mean depending on the movie. Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1On a holiday weekend. Yeah, I'm sure it was crazy.
Speaker 3But how was Disneyland this weekend? You were saying Disneyland was weekend. Yeah, I'm sure it was crazy, but how was Disneyland this weekend? You were saying Disneyland was crazy. Yeah, it was ridiculous.
Speaker 1Oh yeah. They had a dance or cheer competition going on and the holiday, and the holiday.
Speaker 3Was it worse than when we were there at DCA? Yeah, wow.
Speaker 1I would have been done at 1030. We went over to DCA. We park hopped because we didn't have DCA tickets. So we park hopped fairly early, earlier than we normally do, and we got over there. Guardians broke, cars broke, credit Coaster broke and then there were just masses of people. So Guardians came back up. We were able to get on that Shit. That might have been it. We did Guardians, we did. Even Little Mermaid was an hour long. If Little Mermaid is an hour long, get the fuck out of California Adventure.
Speaker 2You ain't going on nothing today. Is that just all the folks because of the broke down rides just went over to those?
Speaker 1No, dude, it was just the dance teams that were there. They brought their whole families, because we stayed at the Disneyland Hotel too, and it was just packed full of people in there too Damn Ridonkulous. Disneyland was okay, but DCA because that's where they usually have there's a stage back there by Monsters Inc, so they'll put on shows. So I think most of them only have DCA tickets, so just everybody and their mothers over there. And it was also the last weekend of the uh lunar near you, uh food festival, so everybody's probably getting in for that too before it goes away uh, so okay.
Speaker 3So you guys stayed at disneyland hotel. Do you prefer staying on site or at the time? Sure, what's for you personally, like what I liked it.
Speaker 1I mean the walk at the end of the night back to the hotel through downtown disney kind of lame, but better than waiting for the shuttle, fight your way out of the parking garage, drive to the timeshare, so I didn't mind it. Um, we used our disney vacation club points, so we stayed at the, the villas at disney. It was a good room. I had a Murphy bed, a full queen-size bed, maybe Fridge. Checked out the new Avenger store, which was okay, the D-Lander. Next to the Avenger store they have Pandora and Roosevelt's the.
Speaker 1Roosevelt's were just okay. Nothing good, oh, okay yeah. Nothing, exclusive to them yet yet, yeah, um, and then we ate at um, this chinese taiwan place called din tai fong or something. Their website is dtfcom, by the way. How they got that? Wow is amazing but it's um dumpling etfinfo right, but it was uh dumplings. It was really really good. I enjoyed it there's a I.
Speaker 3I'm not a huge dumpling guy, but there's a couple of dumpling places up here. When you guys come, let me make sure you put that on the list because I'll be happy to take you guys. There's a couple of them where people will drive a half an hour to go pick them up, type of thing like so we didn't have reservations.
Speaker 1They didn't have reservations until march. We were able to put ourselves on the wait list like waka, wow, I have hours. Dude, we're just like fuck it. We're disneyland, we'll just go on rides and as it gets closer, then we'll just start making our way back there. Nice, I enjoyed it. I liked eating there. It was cool. It's no, no tortilla joes, but no margaritas they didn't keep the margarita machine nuts, so sad. I did have a strawberry old-fashioned at a Smokejumpers in DC. That was pretty good.
Speaker 3Was that an exclusive one, or is that one they always have? It was just for.
Speaker 1February or something Spring or something like that.
Speaker 3Valentine.
Speaker 2Chocolate-covered strawberries. I was like, hey, let's play with this thing.
Speaker 1The strawberry shortcake Dole Whip over at Disneyland Delish. They kept it for most of last year. Actually, I think it lasted until probably September.
Speaker 3They do like a cake, or do they do the chunks?
Speaker 1Well, it's a strawberry. Dole Whip, yeah, and then they put a strawberry like compote, so they have like strawberries and they put like the angel food cake and stuff on it.
Speaker 3Is it like cubed or something? No, it's like crumbles.
Speaker 1Or is it the whole? Yeah, it's crumbled, okay, crumbles, it's delicious. They should keep it year-round. Fuck it, man.
Speaker 2That shit sounds delicious it is delicious, but I'm also on a salad for all my food today, as soon as this is over, I'm eating some steak Did you pay?
Speaker 1$50 for it on Friday night.
Speaker 2Shit. Hell to the no I threw some. This is Sam's Club Fucking $6.98 a pound.
Speaker 1I ain't doing that bullshit. Did you do anything for Valentine's? I know we talked about it, but, nope, not a thing. Cool, I was sick, getting sick. I took my bitch to Disneyland so I went, yeah you did.
Speaker 2That's how you keep that relationship together.
Speaker 3You're like let's just go to Disneyland. If my bitch wants to go on a cruise, we go on a cruise.
Speaker 2I was going to say that shit will work.
Speaker 3She wants to go to WDW, we go to WDW.
Speaker 1Yep, whatever. Tell me when I need to get on the plane.
Speaker 2I really haven't done shit for VD in a long time, so I don't give a fuck.
Speaker 1You're supposed to do antibiotics for that Lou? Yeah, also true. I'm not going to tell you what kind, because we're not doctors. I don't want to put misinformation out there, right.
Speaker 2YouTube shut us down.
Speaker 1Jack F Kennedy.
Speaker 3There are no worms in my brain. I did watch the Gorge and Flight Risk this week.
Speaker 2Okay, I don't remember, I don't remember.
Speaker 1It's Apple TV. That's how come you don't know nothing about it? It's Batista and Mila Jovovich. Okay.
Speaker 3What the Gorge? No, it's Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy.
Speaker 1Oh, I must be thinking something else. Then there is a movie with Batista and. Mila Jovovich, that would have been a completely.
Speaker 3I'm sure that would have been a completely different movie than the one that I saw. Wow, that was good. I like that. We're doing fan casting for movies that already exist. Who would you rather see in this movie? We're replacing Batista and Jennifer Lopez. Wait, what, what?
Speaker 2No, who you go fly girl.
Speaker 3But I mean it was fine. The gorge was predictable, like you kind of knew what was going to happen, and you know it was an hour and a half, so you can't. I mean like I'm glad it wasn't like a two and a half hour movie, because I feel like they would have had to do a lot of padding for it. But you know, I mean like the story was fine, like I mean like the story was fine, like I understood it Corporations bad, right, mother Nature good, that type of thing, and then Flight Risk was just kind of whatever it was. There Was that.
Speaker 2I didn't realize the Gorge was a green movie.
Speaker 3Kind of. I mean, it's not like directly a green movie, but it's. I thought it was. I thought I'd read somewhere that it was actually a sequel to another movie, but I couldn't. I thought I'd read somewhere that it was actually a sequel to another movie, but I couldn't. I might be thinking of another movie where it's like the name is different, but it's a spiritual sequel to something.
Speaker 1It has Mila Jovovich and Dave Bautista in it.
Speaker 3There you go exactly.
Speaker 2That's the prequel.
Speaker 3Flight Risk. Flight Risk was whatever. It was unmemorable. It's probably why you don't remember anything about it.
Speaker 2It's just, you know, the gorge was when I didn't know anything about flight risk. No, it hit streaming this weekend. Yeah, I'm waiting for it to hit the free shit.
Speaker 3Yeah, I'll watch it then, but I want to pay for it yeah, but I mean, I mean it's fine, like it's inoffensive, right, like you just watch it and you're like, oh okay, yep, turn your brain off.
Speaker 1Wake me up in an hour. It's there.
Speaker 3Yeah, you know, there wasn't like a moment where you're like, oh, they're all going to die, right, Like it was of it not exactly.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's like oh okay, we know how this is going to play out, let's see how it plays out. That's it yeah, that's what I expect for that, but again.
Speaker 3It's one of those ones too. I think they gave away kind of a lot of the stuff that would have. You would have been like oh in the trailer, like okay, like marky mark's bald head, that type of thing right, I should have kept that like right, but.
Speaker 3But I mean, to me that's one of those examples where it's like when you're watching the movie and you go, oh, that would have been an interesting choice if I was actually, if I hadn't seen it six months ago in the trailer, right so. But a bunch of trailers came out in the last couple weeks so I'll have to have to get a collection together so we can have a conversation about it in a couple weeks In season two. Season two, that sounds weird, Right Dude.
Speaker 1this is episode 49.
Speaker 2Dang yeah, we only missed three.
Speaker 1Yeah, Not bad right.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's pretty good.
Speaker 3We'll talk about that more next week. Those eight people were so upset.

Speaker 2Well, they're going to be our estate soon, so be nice.
Speaker 1That's why we've got to beat them. They need to stop booing the anthem, because it's their future anthem. Exactly, exactly. Get used to that shit. You want to be the USA, usa.

Speaker 1No, gross, that's how you get lice. Only if you have lice I see it can only be passed around Because I just shared somebody else's headset and now I get lice. Only if you have lice. I see I just shared somebody else's headset, now I have lice.
Speaker 2Only if they had lice.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 3They nasty. You know he talks about how young some of the people that he brings on are they don't.
Speaker 2They don't know about that. That is true.
Speaker 1They didn't grow up in the eighties Like we did. Yeah, getting tested.
Speaker 3Yeah, getting tested at school and shit. They'd be like, oh one person's got head lice, we got to test everybody.
Speaker 1Everybody Putting scotch tape in your hair and shit.
Speaker 3Yeah, they got the little fucking combs They'd be like.
Speaker 1Your parents are boiling everything that night at home. Yeah, no shit, you'd have to get all your shit.

Speaker 2Is that white people shit?
Speaker 3I guess that is white people shit. What are y'all?
Speaker 1talking about it's because you couldn't see lice crawling on loose skin.
Speaker 3The brown. It's like a really soupy fudge that they would I don't remember the name of it, but it's. They put that shit in your hair because that's the only thing they basically would suffocate the lice, because that's the only thing you and all your siblings are in the bathtub with tar in your fucking head.
Speaker 1It has to sit there for 15 minutes.
TV Show Critique and Bias Discussion
Speaker 2Dang Y'all making my head itch For real, though. Dang y'all making my head itch oh my god, oh no, I tell you. I tell you the other thing I started to watch. I'm only, I'm only six episodes in of season one.
Speaker 1Uh, yellow jackets oh see, I got talked into it by the duke I did.
Speaker 2I did. I was like I need something to watch and it was like I don't know, 11 o'clock at night, ended up watching until like 4 or 5 in the morning. It was like, well, I'm up, I took a nap earlier. So I'm like, well, I'm up, so let me give it a shot. And then it was like, damn, this is wild. I'm curious how this plays out.
Speaker 2So next thing, you know, yep 6 episodes in 5 or 6 I don't remember what I got to, but it was five or six. I'm enjoying that. I'm looking forward to catching up to where we are now, which is obviously the start of season four, three, whatever.
Speaker 3You're not that far behind.
Speaker 2No, not too bad. I should have it done by the end of the month. I liked it. I was like, okay, After Duke mentioned it, a co-worker at work mentioned it as well. I was like what he was explaining it. I was like, alright, cool. Finally, I was like, alright, let's watch it.
Speaker 3Fine, I'll put it on my list Again. If you're a fan of 80s television or movies or media, there's a ton of people in that show that you're like, oh yeah, I know who that is. Good guess, good media there's a ton of people in that show that you're like, oh yeah, I knew who that is.
Speaker 2Good guess, good references. I didn't realize Fallout Girl was in there.
Speaker 3So that's cool Kind of.
Speaker 2Mozzarella, mozzarella.
Speaker 1Pernell. Fair enough. Exactly that's what L is short for.
Speaker 3Mozzarella stick. That's a realistic Pernell, this guy. Have you been drinking, are you okay?
Speaker 2dude, Where's your cup buddy?
Speaker 3Jack is still hammered from Disneyland earlier today, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 2I mean, I like me some cheese. If she wants to go by that, I'll eat that cheese.
Speaker 3Let's probably eat some fish and loo.
Speaker 2You won't even string it, You'll just eat a whole yeah antibiotics. Either way is good.
Speaker 1I watch Landman D, all of it I like that.
Speaker 3The thing about those shows that really bugs me is all the articles that come out afterwards that are like oh my god, they were so wrong about this and this isn't accurate. And I'm like I'm not, I don't give a fuck, dude.
Speaker 1I'm like OK, that's how oil works.
Speaker 3If you're watching fucking Landman to get numbers of what you like. If you're going to work on Monday after watching Landman going. Well, they said this about solar energy and about wind power that you're a fucking idiot to start with Like. Let's just be real. If you're using layman to get your facts like come on.
Speaker 2Let's see. The problem with that is there are a lot of idiots.
Speaker 3And there are a lot of people Obviously Very obviously, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2You saw how many people voted for Kamala, so you're going to. So you're going to have all that going on, with the idiots who are going to try to regurgitate this shit. So it would be nice if you would have some factual shit in the show, so that way people aren't regurgitating.
Speaker 3Like a fucking pop-up videos, like a little thing at the bottom.
Speaker 2Actually community network. Do it right in the first place, Like nobody ever thought about just making it accurate.
Speaker 1Well, okay, it's being told from the perspective of an oil guy. Of course he's going to say shit about solar and wind power, so he probably isn't even saying the right shit Cause he probably doesn't know it.
Speaker 3And he's going to oversell the importance of oil. Right so he's.
Speaker 1You're getting your facts from a guy that's full of shit.
Speaker 3In the first place, you're getting your facts from a guy that's full of shit. In the first place, you're getting your facts from a guy who has a stake at the game of presenting his side of things in a way.
Speaker 2Do you know that? Obviously, I haven't seen the show. When you're watching the show, do you understand if this guy is biased and you shouldn't believe him?
Speaker 3I understand I understand.
Speaker 2I'm not a fucking moron though to let him know, you have to give the character either off by talking with somebody or whatever. That's like. Oh yeah, I'm feeding him this bullshit or whatever. That way, you know, you're feeding him bullshit because people are too stupid and they'll believe that.
Speaker 1Okay. So the show opens with him making a deal with the cartel to drill oil on their land. So right out the gate he's a bad guy. So why would you believe anything he says? The rest of the show?
Speaker 2Well, that doesn't make him a bad guy, it's because he's making a deal with the cartel.
Speaker 3I mean, he's doing what he's good at right.
Speaker 3That's how they kind of present. That's how they present Billy. Bob Thornton's character is like he doesn't like what he does, but he's really good at what he does, and so this is why he's doing what he's doing, right, like, like there's there's points of the show where he's doing the like I'm standing in the backyard looking out over the sun, sunset, and a coyote comes up, and there's a moment and you read into it and blah, blah, blah. But then, like you go, oh well, he hates what he's doing, he's probably a rock, he's probably rotten inside, but he does this because you know.
Entertainment Industry Discussions
Speaker 3It's like when people ask me why I do IT stuff, I would love to be doing 500 other things, but it's what I'm good at, so I'm still doing it Right, like I would love to just go serve drinks on a beach somewhere Tropical, right, but it's not going to pay as well. I'm probably going to get bored. My brain will get, you know, like I will get frustrated, and then that's when I become a bad employee, when my brain isn't always going and sand everywhere.
Speaker 1Swallow them hot bits come up in their bikinis. Just doesn't do it for you how are you going to survive that?
Speaker 3It'd be terrible. Lou would be out there wearing a giant rubber glove over his shorts.
Speaker 2Right.
Speaker 1He'd be like Bigfoot. He'd be like Spring break, like did you hear the legend of garbage bag man?
Speaker 3wait is he?
Speaker 1collecting pictures. He's just blurry pictures of this fucking garbage bag running around on spring break chasing all these white bitches with no sand on his person exactly yeah, yeah, oh my god but I mean so, yeah, I mean that's, that's the hard part is don't watch it because you want oil documentary. Watch it because billy bob thornton's a cranky old fucking dude, and he's billy bob thornton.
Speaker 3Right like yeah, right like he's playing bill Thornton, right yeah. Right, he's playing Billy Bob Thornton being a cranky fucking dude, and there's a bunch of hot bitches running around. You see Alie Larder's boobs in? Like the first episode that does matter. It does, it matters a lot. And because it's a Tyler Sheridan thing, all the girls in the show are like tens, like crazy tens, yeah, like tens like crazy bitches.
Speaker 2Oh, that sounds like one of his shows.
Speaker 1Yeah, even um Demi Morrison. I'm like thanks, she looks good for like 70. Well it could just be, substance, the substance.
Speaker 2I was going to say which which came out first, this show or the substance the substance yeah. But the move, that movie only came out last year, right, yeah?
Speaker 3I mean landman's new landman came out probably within the last six months, so oh really okay, got it yeah, but I mean, yeah, I enjoyed it. I'll be looking forward to it and it's not normally a show. I mean I'm there are a lot of those types of shows that I'm normally not into, but I you know the casting. I think they did a good job with casting the the right people.
Speaker 1They had Billy Bob. I was in. I love me some Billy Bob. I don't care Whatever he does, I'm there.
Speaker 3Well, and again he's just himself, like literally. They were just like okay, go on, everyone play off of Billy Bob when he goes on scene. This is what's happening, right. Like you know, loved him in.
Speaker 1For all two seconds. He was in it Right.
Speaker 2Oh man and Sling Blade.
Speaker 1I think that's all I watched.
Speaker 2I haven't seen your recommendation to watch SNL 50 skit.
Speaker 1That shit was funny. It was Black Jeopardy, hosted by Keenan, of course, and then it had a black chick I think it was the one from Ghostbusters, leslie Jones, yeah, and then in the middle was um, uh tracy morgan tracy morgan and then eddie murphy was on the end playing tracy morgan. I died. Yeah, yeah, he was on the end playing tracy morgan, as tracy morgan was sitting next to him.
Speaker 2Oh my god, okay, he was like doing like his voice, inflections and stuff they got dude, they got everybody.
Speaker 1Everybody came back, don't worry.
Speaker 3You saw so many people in the crowd who didn't even weren't even in any of the skits or whatever. Like that's the, that's all the articles today. Uh, that I that were in my feed about snl. We're like, why was so and so not part of any of the skits? Why was so and so not part of any of the skits? Why was so and so not part? And I'm like man, that mother, that show went like four and a half hours. It was supposed to be three hours. Oh, I mean the commercials. The commercials killed it like is it on?
Speaker 3peacock yet yeah, it's on peacock. You can watch it without. We're gonna watch it with short commercials, so or you can just watch all the YouTube clips, I think they've clipped everything on YouTube. I like the in-memoriam. Lou, I think you'll like the in-memoriam stuff. It's pretty funny. You're like, oh, they're going to talk about people that died. Nope, they just talk about shit that did not age. Well, that's super cool.
Speaker 3They have a whole segment where they just have the faces blurred out because they're like nope, can't show that. Nope, can't show that makeup either.
Speaker 1Oh, me out. Black face was okay back then.
Speaker 2I was going to say black face is the only thing that they can't show.
Speaker 3I think there was a few of them. It'd be one of those ones where I'd like to go through and figure out what skits they were from, Because there were a lot of them I did recognize, but there were a few. I was like huh.
Speaker 2I'm sure somebody did that or will.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, if it's not done now, it will be by the end of the week.
Speaker 2Yeah, did Chevy Chase show up.
Speaker 3Yeah, he was there, dang. All right, did you watch the music? The musical too. They had like a concert.
Speaker 2Yeah that's also on. Did the older people come back?
Speaker 1Oh no, Old Ferrell did Not Like Us. That was kind of funny.
Speaker 3That was from the musical thing. So on Friday night they did a thing at Radio City Music Hall where it was just a bunch of musical performances People going up and singing either their songs or songs by other people that were notable in the SNL history, type of thing. So that was where that clip was from, Because that was their wedding reception people where he's on the piano and she's singing.
Speaker 3They did a whole clip. I guess there was actually a conversation on if they should do it or not. I was like I'm glad they did because that shit was funny If they did it on.
Speaker 1Super Bowl. They can do it on SNL.
Speaker 3Is there anybody ever in the history of man who's had a worse week than Drake?
Speaker 2No, Probably not, man. Those seven days were not a good seven days for him.
Speaker 3I was watching things that people were like. There are people in Canada who are worried about what's going to happen between the Canadians and US, and they still had a better week than Drake did.
Speaker 1Put tariffs on Drake.
Speaker 2You know it reminds me. So afterwards, and trying to, because I don't know what's going on with Drake and Kendrick. One of the YouTube channels I watch New Rockstars they did a follow up on that whole story. One of the girls like 15 YouTube channels I watch New Rockstars. They did a follow-up on that whole story. One of the girls like 15 minutes. Here's what's going on with here and here's what was going on on the halftime show, and this meant this, and I'm like that makes a whole lot more sense if you understand what the hell's going on. So, like you, jack, you probably appreciate that clip, that 15-minute episode, because you actually got it. I'm sitting there like, oh, so that's kind of cool. So after the fact it was fantastic I was like, oh, that's cool.
Speaker 3I was like, wow, this Negro is deep. I told you he's a very smart guy. Why was Serena there? Oh, now I understand.
Speaker 2I learned all this because of what happened when she won was like, oh, and they gave her crap for it, but oh, they actually touched on that in the video. I was like, okay, I did not understand any of this. And now it's like, okay, that's great. No, can we get somebody more entertaining next time? I don't. I don't need this message. I want to be entertained actually who?
Speaker 1I think it was. Jermaine dupree is like good I good. I'm glad everybody hated it, Because now we can stop mainstreaming rap and get it back to the hood.
Speaker 2That's funny I don't know how that puts it back in the hood, Although who was the dude that was from New Orleans who got mad that he didn't get it? Lil Wayne.
Speaker 3Oh, okay, he was on the SNL special, though he wouldn wanted to put on a good show either oh no no we haven't
Speaker 1ever heard a little way he has an album coming out this summer and I don't think he's putting anything out for like 15 years or something. Yeah, no, okay, that doesn't work, he doesn't know his songs he goes in, he one shots all his songs and then he forgets him. He doesn't write his lyrics down or anything what the hell yeah, he doesn't even know his own, and then he forgets them.
Speaker 2He doesn't write his lyrics down or anything.
Speaker 1What the hell?
Speaker 3Yeah, he doesn't even know his own songs.
Speaker 1That'd be a terrible concert. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3Well, because you know that he's sinking to the whole thing or it's got a good backing track.
Speaker 2I would imagine yeah, he is.
Super Bowl Halftime Show Analysis
Speaker 1So yeah, that's terrible and Kendrick didn't have a backing track. He did a lot of shit live.
Speaker 2See, I couldn't tell. I thought he was lip syncing for a while.
Speaker 1No, my man was up there. No backing track, no, nothing, breast control and everything. So so again, it was a good performance. It was not a good Super Bowl performance.
Speaker 2Yeah, again, that seems to be the gist of it all. Even the folks I know out here who like him were all like he's good, he's great, he's deep, but they didn't enjoy the show Right.
Speaker 3Well, I don't think I mean. What he did didn't necessarily lend itself to a halftime performance, right? If you're thinking about halftime performances, you're thinking of 10 or 12 different acts all coming together, right, like it's bruno mars, but it's not bruno mars, because it's bruno mars and shakira and friends and chris martin and well even beyonce's here and you know, last year did that too, but I mean the last four, the last, the last four or five years, they've all.
Speaker 3Anytime they had a song that had somebody else on it, and it was always somebody notable. Not to take anything away from sysa, but I don't think as far as the zeitgeist, the musical zeitgeist, she's very well known exactly, yeah so.
Speaker 3But then you look at, you know, you go back and you look at previous years super bowl halftime shows and it's always like you know it's Coldplay. Oh shit, here comes Beyonce, here comes you know whoever, whatever people they've worked with and whatever people they come on and bring on for a show, because again they're paying to be there, like they're paying the NFL to be there. I found that out a couple years ago and I was like what the fuck? Like, really Like, oh, okay.
Speaker 2And they're going to keep paying them to be there until they stop and then NFL has to pay them to be there. They have the control.
Speaker 1I had to wait until everybody was like, no, fuck you football.
Speaker 3Well, and I think it's kind of getting that way to one degree or another, because I know I've read articles in the past couple years where they have reached out to a bunch of people who were popular at the time and they were like nah, I'm good, like I don't need to pay you like I'll continue to put on a 13 minute concert.
Speaker 2Yeah, that happened to taylor. She's like yeah, no, I don't need your money.
Speaker 1You can't afford me.
Speaker 3You need me, I don't need you, yeah by the way, I put on three and a half hour shows, so how do you think I'm going to cut that shit down to 17 minutes, right?
Speaker 1That's an insult to my work.
Speaker 2And that would suck too, like all that work for 17 minutes, uh-uh, mm-hmm, not worth it and it's crazy.
Speaker 3I was watching like a behind the scenes where they were talking about the different shows and they were talking about like the weekends, one from from was it two years ago?
Speaker 32021, 2022 21 uh, and how wild that was.
Speaker 3Because a bunch of the stuff like you have to like take into account the field and everything with all the stuff that you use and so, like, all of the things that they put on the actual field can't damage the field or change the field in any way, shape or form.
Pool Renovation Project Updates
Speaker 3So they've had to go and like create all of these different things uh, different tires for the, the stages they push out, and stuff like that that are that are configured in a way that aren't going to put indentations in the field at all, or anything like that, which is to me, I'm like that the technology behind all that is pretty crazy. And the fact, like this past year, the one I was reading an article on, wired or something that, um, new orleans, the superdome only has one big tunnel in and out. I guess a lot of the newer stadiums have multiple ways for you to bring things in. So they had to like make sure everything fit in this like 10 foot wide. They had to cut everything to fit in this like 15 foot wide tunnel that had like a 35 degree angle. So they had to make sure all the stages were cut in a way that they'd be able to bring them in and out.
Speaker 1Well, it's a good thing Kendrick fit like 30 dudes in that GNX of his. So yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3Also the GNX not not going to be ever driven again. I guess they were looking for that for a couple months before the show came and they were able to finally Because he was like no, no, no, it has to be a GNX. They were like, can it be anything else? And he's like, nope, it has to be a GNX, because that's what's on the album cover. And they were like.
Speaker 1I was going to say why it had to be that? Because and it had to be the year that he was born that his dad brought him home in.
Speaker 3So they were able to find one and the guy was like, I guess they bought it. And the guy was like, oh, I'm so good that you have this. And they're like, yeah, we're going to gut it. And they removed the engine. They had to take everything out of the inside.
Speaker 1We've got to fit all these Mexicans in it. It's going to be crazy.
Speaker 3Yeah, exactly, we've got to make this into a clown car.
Speaker 2One of the things from that episode that I watched about the halftime show. It looks like the stage was a PlayStation controller.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2And then the codes, the buttons lit up and, if you found that code on, people went online and looked and apparently it was a code to get to the 59th level and a Jurassic park PlayStation game because it was a super bowl 59. I was like, damn, that's some deep shit, right, but I thought that was kind of cool.
Speaker 1All that's clown, drake.
Speaker 2Mm Hmm.
Speaker 3Yeah, totally, totally worth the money in his opinion.
Speaker 1Mm-hmm, totally worth the money, in his opinion 15 mil Done yeah.
Speaker 2Crazy, fuck that guy. I want to know how that lawsuit's going to play out.
Speaker 3It's not going to go anywhere. You know what'll happen. They'll settle and just not talk about it.
Speaker 2I don't know that he will. I guess the attorneys insurance could settle they'll do it. But kendrick like and I want a public apology.
Speaker 3Kendrick should be like no, nope but if they settle all that goes away. Like he can't like be, like I want money and an apology, like if they settle and just settle.
Speaker 2No that that could be part of the settlement yeah, yeah they could then I guess maybe we will go to trial.
Speaker 3That shit will be the funniest trial. You want to make yourself look worse? Let's go to trial.
Speaker 1It needs to be that trial.
Speaker 3You clown me so bad that I can't.
Speaker 1It needs to be that trial and Gina Carano's trial back to back, just to watch all these little bitches just cry and sue over stupid shit. You made it crazy.
Speaker 3Just in the same courthouse right now.
Speaker 2I hope Gina wins her so badly. The hypocrisy was so terrible there.
Speaker 1She won't.
Speaker 2I don't know. The fact that shit ain't got tossed out yet Isn't her favorite, that's true, and now she's got the president's ball holder the president's ball holder on her backside.
Speaker 3It's the actual president, sir. The real president President.
Speaker 1Musk.
Speaker 2That's fine, as long as he gets shit done. No, he's an immigrant. Immigrants, don't run this country sir. Can you find out all the bullshit that the Democrats did? I'm just really glad.
Speaker 3Immigrants don't run this country. Sir, Can you find it on the bullshit?
Speaker 2that the.
Speaker 3Democrats did. Oh my God, I'm just really glad that the casino has a bed in it, cause.
Speaker 1I might need that, but the way things are going dang. They keep firing everybody. I wonder if Duke's going to have a job soon. Don't know yet.
Speaker 3Every day, we uh, every day is a new adventure, so we'll see.
Speaker 1I did put some nightstands in here, though Nice. Thank you, sir, appreciate that they have USB ports and they light up.
Speaker 2Damn. In the nightstand, that's badass. No more hauling the little crates over to put your phone on. Nope, stacking the cardboard boxes all funky, exactly Praying that one text doesn't praying that one text doesn't make it fall off and it put to happen. I had to put my shit on silent after that, yeah yeah I was like no, no vibration, no can I put it on the headstand?
Speaker 3nope, it's not white enough, shit. Oh, I don't know where I'm gonna put this footboard.
Speaker 2That's all you got there you go there you go that little area go. That was wide enough, I learned.
Speaker 3Jack comes in in the morning. Pillows are on the footboard. What happened?
Speaker 1I was the only place I could put my phone.
Speaker 3I like looking at Grogu's face when I fall asleep. We made eye contact.
Speaker 2Oh man.
Speaker 3We held eye contact. Oh, man, we held eye contact. Ew, get out of my bed, get out of my house you're no longer welcome. How is the uh, how is the p-o-o-l coming?
Speaker 1that's still a hole in the ground. Um, they cut my sewage line and my water line so I can't poop out here very upset about it, as you should be.
Speaker 2It wasn't like, hey, we need to turn this off. They accidentally cut it.
Speaker 1They knew it was there, I think it was just that shit's in the way, so bye.
Speaker 2Did they at least give you a heads up?
Speaker 1No, until I looked out there, I'm like that big black pipe looks like, uh, some sort of drainage goes somewhere so did you ask them, and they told you oh my bad, or what are they like?
Speaker 2how did that play out?
Speaker 1I don't know. Third, re-pipe. I mean they were gonna have to re-plumb it anyways.
Speaker 2So whatever would have been nice, do that this week, I think right, but a heads up of hey, don't use your bathroom in the casino because we're doing this, would have been a nice touch Again.
Speaker 1thankfully I'm not a fucking moron. It would have been funny if they did it at a fucking moron's house Like sir why is there a turd in the middle of my pool here Right?
Speaker 3And neither me nor Lou were there, so you know.
Speaker 2Why is?
Speaker 3there a Snickers bar in the middle of the pool, sir.
Speaker 2I could have swore this looks familiar. I saw it earlier today. Is that corn, are we?
Speaker 1farming now.
Speaker 3Nope, farming is a bad business to get in my friend All.
Speaker 2I'm saying is just keep an eye on any kind of change orders or any bullshit like that, because they will make whatever attempt they can to charge you extra for that. Yeah, we have to move this pipe over. I'm like no, no, no, no, no, you knew that ahead of time. Don't do that Exactly.
Speaker 1Yeah, no, because when they first came out to do everything the backyard wasn't filled in from originally putting the pipe in and he straight up took a picture of it. He knew it was there the guy's digging. Maybe they didn't know or didn't care, but the project manager knows it's there.
Speaker 2Exactly, exactly. That's on the PM right there. Yeah, f, that you didn't say anything to him yet.
Speaker 1No, stacy talked to him this morning, oh, okay.
Speaker 2That's how we have the update.
Speaker 1He's finalizing getting the pool equipment done, and um, that's when she found out about Repiping everything. So it's proper like I can poop again.
Speaker 2That's cool Still done by June, hopefully. Let's see if they're on schedule. Still, that's cool, still done by June, hopefully. Shit, let's see if they're on schedule still.
Speaker 1Yeah, I don't know, our neighbors were getting their shit done too. That seemed to go by pretty quick.
Speaker 2Well, theirs is already done, your neighbors.
Speaker 1Mostly, it seems like the concrete's all poured and shit and hard Deck and all that yeah.
Speaker 2Shit Okay Right. I mean if deck and all that, yeah shit okay right.
Speaker 1I mean if the reputable it's in and out it's uh, it's realtor friend recommended them, so I mean, it's not some fly by night company or some shit right, because they would not recommend if and like the actual owner of the company came out because of who recommended them to us to go over everything before he handed it off to his people, because obviously he's the boss, so he's not going to do it.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, yeah. So far I don't have any problems with them. I don't know how to build a pool, so maybe it does take a little while.
Speaker 2Oh, it definitely does, because I've had to deal with some in my industry. It's just the whole cutting that line, not telling you, especially when it's a functional line. That's the part that's like what is wrong with you people. First of all, you give the heads up ahead of time, right, and then you say this will be out of service for however long, so don't use whatever water sewer whatever, don't use that in the casita until XYZ time. It's the fact that they didn't do that. That's the part that's irritating the hell out of me.
Speaker 1But you know what, Sometimes people will be telling my wife shit and she doesn't listen to them. So it is possible.
Speaker 2Fair.
Speaker 1She doesn't always be listening to them though that's fair.
Speaker 3It could have been on a laundry list of stuff and it just didn't.
Speaker 1She has a lot of shit going on all this stuff.
Speaker 3She heard Casita and immediately just checked out of whatever the next sentence was afterwards.
Speaker 1Not my problem.
Speaker 3I don't poop out there. Who cares?
Speaker 2I don't know what happens over there.
Speaker 1That's for Jack. He's his dumb friends, I don't care.
Speaker 2Oh man. I was like man, that would be some shit.
Speaker 3It has been 26 years of being your dumb friend, Exactly. Oh man, that's good. What else happened since the last time we all talked On here? That is, that I need up to Super Bowl? Yeah, I mean, I had a good turnout for the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1It was a very long weekend. Obviously, you sent us that picture. It was like all kinds of dead soldiers, fireball shooters.
Speaker 3Yeah, we had both. We had somebody who brought the non-whiskey ones and I had a bag of whiskey ones from the year before and we killed all of them.
Speaker 2Non-whiskey fireball. What are you talking about?
Speaker 3Both of you guys live in states where you can go into Safeway and buy liquor. Here it's all controlled. If you go into a Safeway they'll have a bag of the fireball but it'll be fireball. Malt liquor is like 90 sugar. It's fucking awful. But you can go into a liquor store and get the regular one that says cinnamon whiskey on it right. And I bought one of those like party bags where it had like 30 shots or whatever in it last year and it's been in my freezer for for a year. So I popped those bad boys out and we, uh we killed all of them.
Speaker 2Nobody considered, I don't know, maybe a big bottle of Jack Daniels Tennessee Fire, which is better than Fireball. Anyway, poor shots.
Speaker 3I like giving everybody sugar headaches that I hang out with on the Super.
Speaker 2Bowl. Oh okay, you don't get the good shit.
Speaker 3I could have got jack daniels or sinfire or any other ones that are. They're way better, but I'm like nah, nah that's not anything, that's not gonna be funny at the end of the night when they're all like my head hurts when she gets the good shit.
Speaker 1Yeah, exactly, bonnie shop, she gets crap man, I'm sitting there like why is?
Speaker 2why are they drinking basic white girl drinks? What is?
Speaker 3going on here.
Speaker 2I hope you did it with your Uggs on yeah.
Speaker 3Well, I also found these mixed shots that actually ended up being pretty good. They were like Family Vice B-52, strawberry shortcake, but the cups were like split in half, so then it had like one half of the half, then it had one half of the mix on one side and one half of the other. It wasn't something that was pre-mixed when you shot it it mixed. They turned out to be really good. I thought they were going to be awful, because usually those kind of ones are real hit and miss. They ended up being really good.
Speaker 1I have shot glasses like that. Oh, that are like split in half. Yeah, it's like a rum chata. I think I bought a gift set of rum chata and it came with shot glasses like that, so you put the rum chata on one side and your fireball on the other. Nice, get your cinnamon toast crunch on Nice, or cum shot, I don't know which one they call Whatever.
Speaker 2I, I don't know which one they call them.
Speaker 1Whatever?
Speaker 3I think it depends on the company you're keeping For sure, all right. So you're going to bring those when we go to Disneyland next year.
Speaker 2Whether or not he's making that cum shot. It may not be a drink.
Speaker 3Wait a second. Has this been sitting out, guys? This is way more thick than I thought it was going to be.
Speaker 1There's still burn going down, though. That's that VD.
Speaker 3There's still a burn coming out though.
Speaker 1We wasn't done anything about VD in 15 years Exactly man.
Speaker 2You go out for lunchtime you look around at these folks. There are a lot of people on VD not getting the V or the D that night, oh, man. I'm trying to remember what the hell I even did. I'm sure I just went home and didn't do nothing. I don't remember. I didn't do shit.
Speaker 1I was home. Everybody was at work and school. I sat around on my ass all day. I don't even think I showered. I caught up on Invincible and Harley. I need to catch up on Spider-Man.
Speaker 2I didn't do shit oh yeah, I forgot about that too. I'm still what three episodes dropped after the first two? Mm-hmm. Probably more since then. Probably more. Yeah, three more. The other three probably dropped probably dropped.
Speaker 3Yeah, did it? So one of the guys that I follow, uh, he posts videos always marvel related type of thing, and and I think he really liked uh, spider-man. But then he posted another video that like is this actually good? And then he posted another one saying okay, it's good now. So is that your kind of opinion? I haven't watched any of them yet.
Speaker 1I haven't had a problem with it at all, spider-man being Spider-Man.
Marvel Crossovers and Japan Travel Planning
Speaker 2I only saw the first two episodes. You've got the multiverse, so you've got some addict, normal character people on the race side or gender side or whatever, it doesn't even matter. It had no effect on the show, it's perfectly fine.
Speaker 1No, they're not trying to be woke about it or anything. No, not at all, not at all this is harry and norman. Yes, they're black and we move on with our lives next yeah, man, there wasn't a fuss about. Yeah, but he's still nobody was. He's still norman osborne. He's still rich, smart, all that shit yeah for sure.
Speaker 2No, yeah, none of that crap. We didn't. We didn't get any kind of supergirl bullshit where, oh, there's a black guy, let's make sure the police beat him up for no reason. Yeah, we didn't get any of that crap. I went into it like, oh God, here we go. And then I saw the first two episodes and was like, all right, solid, I'll make fun of it, just for the sake of making fun of it and the joke side of it. But actual opinion, no it was well done.
Speaker 1I got up to the. Daredevil was in the last episode I watched that had Daredevil in it Spoilers. What the hell. Everybody knew Daredevil was going to be in it. It was in the promos.
Speaker 2I know now.
Speaker 1I'm like a Disney.
Speaker 3Plus person, I'm not even watching anymore.
Speaker 2Do-do-do-do-do Ding D All about the big D Yep Plus. It was voiced by Charlie Cox too, so that was good. Oh, that's cool. I didn't know that either. That's actually weird, though it's a different universe but okay, sure, but only some things change.
Speaker 1In an actual multiverse, everything would be the same, except for one detail, right, except for the whatever swapped.
Speaker 2Yeah, okay. We would be doing this, but your name is l-o-u-i-s but everything, and I hate when I go to the food places and like your name please, and they fucking spell it l-u-i-s, l-o-u-i-s. It's like I tell them they can't pronounce it. Let's see they do l-U-I-S.
Speaker 3Luis, no, when they misspell it, you need to walk up and be like are you the key master? What do you mean? Well, you're looking for, luis. You obviously are the key master.
Speaker 2Oh my God, that would be good, especially for the player that gets it.
Speaker 3Right yeah, the first time you're getting a blowjob by one of those girls. Lou, remember, think of me, wait. No, don't think of me. Yes, yes.
Speaker 2I'll see you Thursday night in Japan, buddy.
Speaker 1Oh my God.
Speaker 2I'm reading, I'm reading, I'm reading. I'm with Japan, I'm watching so many YouTube videos. It's ridiculous, it's like. It's like when I, every time I watch my usual subs, uh, and then, which is like all of 30 minutes worth of shit, I don't sub, I don't watch a lot, so for the ones that I do watch, don't post a lot of stuff that I care about, uh, and then next, you know, I was like, okay, now, what? I'm like, oh, what to do, what don't, what not to do in Japan. Well, you know, I'm just watching all those.
Speaker 2Here's some popular phrases you should learn, like, okay, it, yeah, a few months, I'll figure it all out. Like the hardest part that I'm trying to figure out, though, you guys might've done some history or actually research. Rather, I guess Duke will be able to fill us in, maybe, since he's going to be there is the luggage, like some people say, oh, just take the bus, you're fine, your luggage will be fine. Some people say, well, if you take the train, on the whole forwarding thing, it's like, yeah, forwards that same day. I'm like, oh well, that sucks.
Speaker 2Like a Disney hotel, we'd have to forward our luggage the day before. Keep whatever overnight bag and then forward your luggage the day before, so it's there by the next day. And then the other option is obviously to take the bus First of all, Uber is not really a thing there. And then the other option is obviously you just take the bus or you just take the video.
Speaker 3Because it's tabbed or something. No, no, first of all, uber's not really a thing there.
Speaker 2Uber and taxis are not. You get a taxi and taxis are a thing, except they're the most expensive thing you're going to find, like you'll get. Imagine going from your place, jack, to the airport. That's like $300 for a taxi, exactly. Airport that's like 300 for a taxi, exactly.
Speaker 3Even if I know japan, rich yep I will, I will learn the bus system or I will learn the train system, which are both in forwarding system. I will learn something which, unless you're in like a smaller city, is generally really well developed. They've done, yeah, they've done, they've gone above and beyond in developing the uh, their, their public infrastructure or their public transportation.
Speaker 2I think my biggest thing is I just don't know, like luggage wise, what I'm bringing. I mean I'm gonna have one, at least one check-in. Uh, do I have two? I don't know.
Speaker 3And that's where it's like if I have two, that in my backpack, that might be more of a bitch um with the public transport, but if it's a bus, okay fine but I was contemplating, since I don't know how much stuff I'm going to be buying, I was contemplating just taking one, with having a reserve for buying a second one if I needed it Okay.
Speaker 3Then I mean, someday you go and you buy the second bag, so then you're not carrying two bags. My problem is, if I had two bags, I'd have to justify putting stuff in both of them which I'm like, eh, I'd rather just have one bag that was my stuff and then another bag that I might even be able to just ship home.
Speaker 2You can ship your luggage home.
Speaker 1I'm so sick of that and share memes on Facebook. That's fucking useless.
Speaker 3Sending memes and texts is okay, jack, yeah, yeah, yeah, fucking useless, oh man. Oh, they're sending me, so sending sending memes? Uh, sending memes and texts is okay, jack, yeah, yeah oh yeah, that's not facebook.
Speaker 3That's not facebook I did shrink my uh, I did shrink my online footprint. I did. I did get rid of my instagram account, so that's it, I'm out. Oh dang, I'm out. Were you actually using it? Though? I use it when I travel, okay, okay, but I was I in. In the last two weeks, I've had probably 15 or 20 bots like old photos and I'm like, okay, I'm done. I can't keep cleaning up this bullshit. I'm just tired of it. How do you know it's a bot? Because it's Janet4361 and it has the same picture. It has the same picture of the last six people who liked this random photo.
Speaker 2What is the point of that, though? What is the point of a bot liking your? I don't get it.
Speaker 3I don't know, but I just got really tired of reporting them and then Instagram going yes, we got it and thank you, We've suspended this account. I'm like whatever.
Speaker 2I'll admit I'm not on I don't look at it enough Instagram. I don't look at it enough to know.
Speaker 3It was my only digital footprint that was left and it just became way too much to manage and I'm like I'm out.
Speaker 1I don't need it.
Speaker 3It's not Yay for me.
Speaker 2Just wait till next month. Get TikTok when China owns America in six years. Then you'll have TikTok. You'll be good to go.
Speaker 1I just got to change my Duolingo to Chinese. Which is better? Mandarin or Cantonese?
Speaker 3Which one speaks it more Mandarin Cantonese.
Speaker 1I was saying you don't even agree on it.
Speaker 2Well, it's Lou and I Hello, what did you expect? We didn't even work that out ahead of time. I had a tie. I thought Cantonese was more because it'll cover all the surrounding countries of China as well. That's why I thought Cantonese.
Speaker 3The Far East countries. It's more likely you'll find that.
Speaker 2It's more central. That's what I thought. I don't know if that's true. That's what I thought it was.
Speaker 3Let's look it up. Let's do this. I don't know if that's true. That's what I thought it was.
Speaker 2Let's look it up, beaks, let's do this. Hey, I will fix this, paul.
Speaker 1I was going Mandarin just because of the oranges.
Speaker 2I was going to say I thought that was a little guitar, but that's mandolin.
Speaker 3Oh okay, here we go. Oh okay, here we go. To learn Cantonese or Mandarin definitely depends on your personal choice and what reasons for learning, eg which people you want to interact with. Local people in certain areas tend to learn Cantonese naturally through exposure to their parents, whereas Mandarin is generally taught in schools and is only learned at home at an early age when there's no other local language to use.
Speaker 1So it's like the Queen's Chinese versus regular Chinese.
Speaker 2That's what it sounds like that's what it sounds like yeah.
Speaker 3It's like Spanish versus Castilian yeah Street slang versus school slang. You ain't gonna learn about Riz at school.
Speaker 1Fuck that. All about the Riz. Next month we're celebrating St Patra's Day.
Speaker 2No, I saw the halftime. It's Ciz, not Riz.
Speaker 3No that's Ciza.
Speaker 2Cizo, Not Riz-a no that's the thing you cut fabric Riz-a. Riz-a is 36 chambers.

Speaker 2God, joey from Full House, full House over here, oh Lord.
Speaker 1Well, she used to date Kendrick too, or Drake too, so oh, oh, that's right.
Speaker 2I forgot about that. That was part of the video too.
Speaker 1That's just some hate right there, man he just got dolled up and down in this.
Speaker 2Wait, did he date Serena too?
Speaker 1Yeah, oh, no way. Yeah, that's why Serena was there. Yeah, that's why she was there.
Speaker 2See, I didn't take it that way. I took that as her coming back full circle from being mocked for doing her dance that she won and she did it during.
Speaker 1Not Like Us yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I thought it was more of the country. It's a political statement coming to the fore.
Speaker 3I didn't know it had anything to do with Drake. Okay, everything to do with Drake, everything.
Speaker 2So it seems yeah.
Speaker 3Everything in that halftime performance was selected for a very, very specific reason.
Speaker 2That's a lot of drama. That's a lot of drama. Lou's like I need to get to that level. I hate you. I mean, yeah, I can appreciate it, that's for damn sure.
Speaker 2Just don't make either of us Drake, Lou, no, no no, I don't be like the Green Bay Packers or the Baltimore Ravens or Philadelphia Eagles that's my dream. Yeah, ravens, philadelphia Eagles, that's my friend. Oh, that reminds me. Speaking of getting drunk enough, I saw one of the Japan videos I saw there are some restaurants that you pay by the hour and they bring you a little faucet tap and just the alcohol is 60 minutes of have at it. I was like wait, what? Excuse me?
Speaker 1How do they not lose money after that.
Speaker 2I'm just saying, I saw that and was like, oh, I need to tell Duke about this.
Speaker 1I would just watch. That's some people watching right there yeah.
Speaker 3You'd be on your first one just watching everybody get tore up and then they don't start out of the three of us, jack, you are the most weak-willed when it comes to booze.
Speaker 2Let's be real you're gonna be like let's watch everybody 15 minutes in guys.
Speaker 3What's going on? I can't see. Let's watch everybody 15 minutes in Guys.
Speaker 2what's going on? I can't see. Let's watch everybody. The only way that happens is if they turn off the lights. Yeah right, I can't see what's going on. The only way Jack is watching that shit is if he's got a mirror. That's the only way Jack is watching that shit.
Speaker 3By the way, at 45 minutes in, it'd be him looking at that mirror Look, and 45 minutes in, it'd be him looking at that mirror.
Speaker 2Look at that crazy motherfucker. He doesn't even know where he's at right now.
Speaker 3You're a fucking tourist. You're that tourist. Is this your first time drinking? Wait, why are?
Speaker 2you so repeating what I'm saying? Why is Resident Evil on the background? Stop?
Speaker 1copying me, stop copying me.
Speaker 2Oh my God. Well, yeah, that tripped me out. I was just like whoa, that's a thing. That was just they didn't say the prices or how much that cost, but the fact that it existed has got me Japanese Ridge, make that shit rain.
Speaker 3Yep, there'll be one night.
Speaker 2Yeah, might be Sunday night Celebration's over. Gotta celebrate.
Speaker 3Celebrate it being back in the States you guys already had your pin conversation and stuff last week. No not really. That happened this week right.
Speaker 2Yeah, I was like no, we didn't talk about that at all. I mean, it's just the three sets and then the badge art, and I don't know if it was just the one set of badge art or is there multiple?
Speaker 3I'm sure they'll all be.
Speaker 2I'm sure it'll all be.
Speaker 3Because I think the badge art that they showed was the badge art that matched the badges they released On Twitter yeah, we'll find out in a few days, I guess.
Speaker 2Yeah, was it Thursday night. Something like that yeah, no, the 25th, wasn't it? Next Something like that.
Speaker 1yeah, no, the 25th wasn't it. Next Tuesday. I put it in my the 20th, 25th.
Speaker 2Yeah, I think it's 25th at like 6pm or something.
Speaker 3Is what they announce, the Everything it's when it goes on sale. Oh, the first pin set, yeah that first set.
Speaker 2What is it called Jack the Travel?
Speaker 1Yeah, the Road to Celebration.
Speaker 2Road. What is it called Jack the Travel? Yeah, the Road to Celebration, Road to Celebration. Those four sets are available next Tuesday, Only that way, allegedly.
Speaker 1Can't buy them.
Speaker 2They say that, but you'll be able to get them at the convention. I mean, I'll order my sets ahead of time. At least the bad sets. I'll probably get those pins just because, but they're not that exciting. The regular character pin After the At least the bad sets. I'll probably get those pins just because, but they're not that exciting.
Speaker 3Yeah, they're not the regular character pin After the Badger.
Speaker 2Yeah, that Badger looks pretty sweet, though Hopefully this shows the rest of the set.
Speaker 1Because if the rest of the set's good then yes, but otherwise I'm not super feeling them.
Speaker 2Worst case scenario I'll at least still order a couple sets, maybe three sets, whatever the limit is. Scenario I'll at least still order a couple sets, maybe three sets, whatever the limit is, like three sets of them, and if I don't like the rest of it I'll just sell those three sets because there are going to be people who miss out. So I know I'll be able to move them. So no big deal there. But I'm with you. I want to see them all before I commit to all, because I'm just not feeling it.
Speaker 3And what's the? Does that change your pin trading strategy? If you end up not feeling the pins, we don't do it at all. We hit this code once and call it a day. So much free time that you just freed up.
Speaker 2I would get my badge art pins and if there's any booths that have the badge art pins, if they're exclusives, whatever, that's fine. Let's say we have two different sheets One is character pins, One is badge art. I'm just going to ignore the character pins completely and just go after all the bad ones If you do Sabine or something I mean. Yeah, a Vader, a Sabine, like you said, a Sabine for you. Chewie for the most part I know people who might want to Porg, or all the droids. I might know somebody.
Speaker 3Neil.
Speaker 2That type of stuff.
Speaker 1Neil for Purdue. Neil will be at the fucking Citizen booth again. We'll have to do fucking acrobats and backflipping and scheming for it.
Speaker 2And then all of a sudden Dunn you just had to ask for it Are the guys that we got the pins from Comic-Con going to be there probably. Oh, I didn't think about that I don't know.
Speaker 1I haven't seen any kind of exhibit of this or nothing.
Speaker 2I don't think they've announced anything. Oh my god, it's two months from tomorrow. Yeah, isn't it? 18, 19, 20?
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Two months from tomorrow. So, let's go Announce some shit. I need our thing. And eight weeks from Friday. Yeah boy, we got the next three days doing this, especially since it's three day and not four day, where we usually have one day to F around and figure things out.
Speaker 2But, it'd only be in three days. We really don't have that day to F around, so I want to lock that down first night. Because of that I wouldn't do the baseball game. You guys have fun. I'm happy to walk you through it. Obviously, we're going to be together anyway. Here's what we do Get your IC, get your Suica card, get the app, whatever you want to do.
Speaker 3I should have that all dialed in by the time you.
Speaker 2I was just going to say you'll have been there a week, so you'll have an idea with that. I'm just referring to specifically from our hotel station, because our train station is a minute walk from the hotel, so that's cool. And then going from there to the convention area and then coming back, shit depends on how long it takes. I might do it twice, I ain't gonna lie. So I uh I don't want to fuck that up.
Speaker 3Going in friday yeah, I think my plan is that I'll be in tokyo monday or tuesday, so I will probably just depending on what time you guys get in on, thursday might just meet you on thursday plane lands 3. Okay, or at least meet you sometime that afternoon to get you guys dialed in.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, so depending on what we end up doing on that Thursday, I was going to say, if you have free time I hope not, I hope you're out there fucking just killing it museums or whatever culture, whatever you want to do but if you do, then we can send you where the hotel we're all going to be staying at uh, we all I'm including you in that because, uh, I think you're still going to be with us for thursday to tuesday, right, yeah, um, so then you could be like okay, here's the station, here's the hotel, you can run the course, and then we can go from there too, but don't, don't make that a priority, so just just obviously.
Speaker 3We'll see. I don't think.
Speaker 2Since we're wandering into this.
Speaker 1We should probably say goodbye, I know, right.
Speaker 2Farewell, goodbye.
