The speaker wanted to know where their African roots were, specifically if they were Somalian or Congolese, as they felt a personal connection and curiosity about their heritage.
Rem's DNA test revealed that he is 99.9% Nigerian with 0.1% trace ancestry of Indigenous American.
Ellis's DNA test showed he is 98.3% British and Irish, 1.5% French and German, and 0.1% broadly Northwestern European.
The speaker was surprised and happy with the results, particularly that they are 99.9% Nigerian, feeling validated and proud of their heritage.

Pause ahead of time. I know I'd ask you to do it again. I just would. Because I'm not seeing that side of you before. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. I need to... Yeah, nah, nah, nah. You landed each clap too perfectly. Run it back. I'll say do it again, do it again. Guys. Girls. Welcome back. Welcome back indeed. And before we get started today, we have a very special...
Announcement? Announcement? Per se? Question mark? Yeah, question mark, exclamation mark. So if you guys were around at the time, Ellis decided to tell us that he was related to royalty and that he doesn't know if he's part black or not. So we thought, oh, this will be fun. Let's all order 23andMe and let's all do it. And I've been saying for a while that
I need to know where my Africans are. Where my niggas is at? Where my niggas is at? So yeah, me and Ren, well, me and Ren both need to find out what kind of African we are. And so we did the 23andMe. It took a few weeks, but we have the results back. So will we find out if Ellis has any black in him and is he related to royalty? Will we find out if I am Somalian or Congolese?
or any of the above or none. - Or none. - Or it could all be a farce. Will we find out if Rem is jacked enough to be Nigerian? Who knows? - Find out. - On the next episode. - Of Dragon Ball Z. - Right, so.
I think it's only right if... Okay, I think we'll start with the obvious. So let's go with you first. Why am I the obvious? I feel like out of all of us, it's probably... Well, both. You're both? Am I wrong? No, I'm just... I want you to explain yourself. Yeah, you're both... It's going to be least amount of surprises with either of you two. Okay, cool, cool. Mainly you. Okay, cool. Oh, I never know. Yeah. I might not be Nigerian. Yeah, if you find out you're 98% Ghanaian, I'm going to lock. Okay.
- Oh, how? - I don't think you understand what that would do to me. Because growing up, a lot of my, I say growing up, probably over the last 10 years, I would say, a lot of people I meet for the first time that interacts with me, especially prior to this podcast, always asked, "Oh, are you Ghanaian?" Just by looking at me as opposed to knowing anything about me. I was like, "Brother, no."
No shade. Like, I love my Ghanaian people. I love my African people. I'm just not Ghanaian. Fair. Let's find out. My heart's racing. I'm not going to lie. My heart's really racing. Have you looked at all? No, I just clicked it. You're looking right now? Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Does it say? Fuhat. I'm going to read it word for word. Ancestry composition. Your DNA suggests your ancestry is 99.9% Nigerian.
- Wow. - Let's go! - Come on. - That's insane. - Let's go. - With ties to one other population, view reports. - 99%. - That's, that's- - I found it in fuck around. - Wow. - They don't fuck around. - Yeah, they really don't. - The 0.1% trace ancestry said we detected traces of the following populations in your DNA. Indigenous American is 0.1%.
And that's what it says. Explore your indigenous American heritage. - You're going into the weeds. - Yeah, so it's pointless. 99.9% Nigerian. - Wow. - Signed, sealed, delivered, proved. I'm not Ghanaian. Yeah. Let's go. - Wow. Wow, that's a lot of Nigerian. - Yeah, man. - E-mando makes a match. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm happy with that. - All right, gang. - I'm happy with that. - Ellis. - Let's have a look. - Oh boy. - Okay. - So where, okay, before we get started, where do you think you're from?
What do you know about yourself? What have you been told? All I know is that I've got a bit of Scottish in my family. Maybe a bit of American. Other than that, not much. Okay. Not much. So, yeah, I'm actually really intrigued. All right, let's load it up. Did Rem just find out his as we were talking? No, I'm looking at maps at Africa and just seeing...
Okay. So, I am 98.3% British and Irish. Fair play. Okay. I am 1.5% French and German. That's a little bit something. And then 0.1% just says broadly Northwestern European.
Fair play. Not bad. So pretty much what we thought. Yeah, pretty much. No Scottish though. Boring. Yeah, no Irish. I've been lied to all fucking life. Yeah, no Scottish though, bro. Yeah, literally no Scottish. Irish ting. So yeah, Irish. Fair play. Let's go. All right. Well, we're Irish brothers now. At least we know that. There you go. Well played. Okay. So all I know at the moment, my dad's from Jamaica and my mom is from St. Kitts. That's all I know.
Ancestry composition I am 91.4% Sub-Saharan African Sub-Saharan, so you're top You're north So it says 84.1% West African Let's go It's not in the favour that you I think that you think it's thinking West Africa So 40.1%
Ghanaian, Liberian and Sierra Leonean 36.2% Nigerian 1.9% Senegambian and Ghanaian Okay
5.9% broadly West African. There's bear here fam. - Wow. - Yeah, you're a mix up, mix up. - You're a pick and mix. - Fam. - Breed up, breed up. - 7.2% Congolese and Southern East Africans. Another 7.2% Angolan and Congolese. - Damn. - Oh wow. - What? - Your family just nutted and dipped. - What's going on? Even I'm 1.1 French and German. - Mad.
1.6 Ashkenazi Jewish. What? I haven't heard of that. Yeah, I've never heard of that. The word before Jewish, I've never heard of. Yeah, that's strand. I'm not, I'm not, I've not heard of that. Let me make, let me try and actually say it. Ashkenawish. Ash, Ashkenazi. Ashkenazi Jew. Ashkenazi Jewish. Wow. 1.6%. I've never heard of that one. I've never heard of. You've got African all up here. I've got, yeah, you've got African. 84 point, where, where?
- I'm not seeing any, well, it's obviously it's African before anything else. - Yeah, it should. - Caribbean or whatever, it's going way, way back to the beginning. - If you go all the way down to additional ancestry regions, is it red? - Okay, yeah. - It should tell you what part of the Caribbean. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. So Clarendon, Jamaica, Port of Spain Corporation, Trinidad and Tobago. - Murder, come on, let's go. - Yeah, man.
Let's go. Yeah, man. That's it. Yeah, that's the Caribbean. Yeah. Jamaica and Trini.

Look at the maps while you're talking. - Okay, cool. So my one. So as I know, all I know about myself is
My mom's Irish and my dad is apart from Trinidad apart from Grenada. That's all I've been told. And so I am 52% Irish. - Just bog standard. - Straight Irish. - You're more Irish than anything else. - More Irish than anything else. Although I have been told with the, I've heard that with the half and halves, not even with the half and halves,
With the splits, it can actually differ between siblings. So it's just about what traits you take. Interesting. Yeah, it can differ between siblings. Interesting. Okay. So my brother might be more black than I am or whatever it appears. Anyway. Anyway, 52% Irish. And that's not...
England, anything, that's Ireland. So my mom's family have- - Only. - Until me, the direct line in my mom's family was only fucking with the Catholics. Yeah, they weren't Australian, which explains a lot about what happens to my mom once, yeah. - Yeah, once you were gone.
- It explains a lot. - Yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. They weren't fucking with that. - Yeah. - So entirely on my mom's side, pure Irish as far as it goes. - Yeah. - Nothing else. - Your mom broke rules. - She did. She broke tradition. Then my black side, so 48% is mostly in favor of Nigerian.

Even though I knew I was gonna be pretty much all Nigerian, but 99.9. And all you might have given numbers and stats. I'm just like 0.1%, whatever it says, boring. - It's not boring. - It's pedigree. - I know, fair. They didn't fuck about. - Yeah, it's pedigree. - Like you're Irish, 52%, nothing else, just Irish. - Yeah, your pedigree bro. - Yeah, man. Continue the lineage.

Early hair loss. - Yeah, let's go. - Okay, wait, let me read it first. - Wait, wait, wait. - Before I, let me read it. - Just read it. - 81% chance you will not experience hair loss or thinning before the age of 40. - All right, fair play, fair play.
Fair, fair, fair. - Let me read it first. - So I can digest. - Yeah, that's the only one I want to see. - Widow's peak. - You do. - 74% chance you do not have a widow's peak. - They roll the dice on you.

Yeah, pause. - So question of the week is the opposite of the question of the week two weeks ago, and that is, fellas, what's a struggle that men have that women won't understand? First one off the bat, we can't go any deeper. We just can't, it's sweet. - It is physically impossible. - It's physically impossible. - Wow.
Damn, that is a struggle. - It's sweet in me. Women will never understand it. - Now that's actually dread because, nah, how do I say this without sounding like a prick? That's not, okay. That's not a struggle of experience of being bellowed at saying deeper, deeper. - Bellowed. - I've had a request of deeper and then I get as deep as I can. I get as deep as I can and that's just the end of it. I've never been, I couldn't give full throttle and then deeper.
- It's hurting my pubic bone. It's just like deeper. That will rock me. That would rock me. Yeah, damn. All right, cool. That's when you start pushing legs back. You bury yourself in the canal. Hope for the best. Right, what's the struggle that men have that women won't understand? Taking a piss with morning wood.
I think we've all experienced that way too many times. Facts, bro. This whole... Yeah.
Yeah, you wish you could levitate. Just angle that joint directly in. Yeah, it's jarring. It's hell, bro. It is jarring. What's the struggle that men have that women won't understand when you have to scratch your balls in public? Yeah, valid. Very valid. Right. The invisible code of leaving a one urinal gap between guys. It's all about space and respect, even if it means you have to wait a while.
- The weight of wildsworth got me. - Yeah, I've got that exact one. I say exact, pretty much similar one on mine. So I'm not gonna read it. - No one ever teaches you that either. - It's just, it's something you learn as you grow. - Yeah, yeah, 100. - No, it's an unwritten rule. That's exactly what that is. It's an unwritten rule. Men have a lot of unwritten rules. - We do. - What's the struggle men have that women won't understand? Needing a trim every two weeks, then looking clapped without one.
Exhibit moi. Bro, mine's every week as well. I should have put that in my fucking DNA. - Your hair grows. - It grows. - Your hair grows. - It stresses me out, bro. Five days, I'm ready for a new one. - Damn. - Does your brother hair grow as fast as yours or faster? - I don't fucking know. He always wears hats. - He does always wear hats. When you were younger as well. - Yeah, his hair grows fast. - I'm trying to, does your hair grow fast, Ellis? - Yeah.
Based on what you just said about five days and that being fast, my head doesn't roll that fast. I need to fade. I'd say approaching...
Say 11 days. At that point, I'm saying, yeah, approaching two weeks is when I know I need a fade. That must be nice. Five days is crazy. Because we've just done this DNA thing, I'm thinking, is it part of like the Irish in you or is it the part of your dad? Why is it that your hair grows so fast? I'm just trying to think outside the box, you know? Yeah, I don't know. Who knows? Anyway, go on. Uh,
What's the struggle that men have that women won't understand? Deciding if she's flirting or being nice and then finding out she's mad that you couldn't tell that she was flirting. Asa, you man, I've said it to Fuad so many times over the years. Since we've got into this industry. Yeah.
We have to go to all these events and then someone will be like, "Oh, hi, nice to meet you." And I'm like, "Is she?" - Yeah. - Is she moving to man? - What's all this? - Or is this just natural? - Yeah, it's just madness. Like, what is it? I need to understand my next play. - Yeah, fam. - Yeah, like what's going on, bro? - Am I getting you a drink or not? - Yeah, fam, I need to understand, am I airing you or am I just, am I, or like, am I reciprocating the politeness or am I being offended that you're moving to me like in public? Like what's going on? - Yeah.
- Yeah, I don't understand. Bro, it's fucking weird. It's jarring, bro. - That's hilarious. That's a very, very good one. What's the struggle that men have that women won't understand? Trying to figure out an answer when I don't know isn't good enough. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's not good enough. I don't know. That's not good enough. Bro, I rack my brain. In the middle of an argument, I'll stare at the wall thinking, what's my next move? I don't understand. Right.
That cramping you get in your forearm when your fingers have been working it too long and she's so close, you can't stop. That right there. Yeah, fam. I used to think I, I used to, I used to genuinely think I just had weak forearms.
because i'll be going there and my forum's murked bro i'm thinking man them can't be yeah because the campus is slowed down yeah because i'm murked bro and now i'm having to like use my whole arm i'm using my whole arm it can't just do the fingers anymore i'm using my whole arm bro i'm thinking that it's not even worth the night anymore oh because my arm's in pain yeah i'm in agony bro it's not sex anymore yeah i just my last one fellas what's a struggle that men have that women won't understand
If we don't react, it's a problem. If we do react, it's a problem. Yeah, 100%, bro. Jarring. Right, I've got quite a few. I'm just going to reel them off. Right, so struggle that men have that women won't understand. The fear of being responsible to go outside if there's a noise disturbing them from their sleep. Oh, fuck.
- For fuck sake, yeah. - Bro, nah, nah, that right there. If you hear a noise and you think, nah, she's gonna send me out. - Yeah, she's gonna send me out. - She's gonna send me out. - I'm fake snoring. - Yeah, oh bro. - 'Cause the doors are locked. - Yeah, 100%. - As far as I can remember. - Right, being quiet because I'm daydreaming about stopping a gunman, not because I'm mad at her. - We're in our own world. - Yeah, if I might imagine shit, fuck.
That's hilarious. Oh, okay, cool. That's hilarious. This one, nuanced. Searching for 20 minutes just to finish in two. The penny just dropped. I knew it would. I knew it would. Searching for 20 minutes just to finish in two. Bane of my life. When I'm looking for something a little bit more unique. What are you looking for? Unique! Ah!
- That's hilarious. - A little bit more unique. Or if I've got some things, I don't know P-stars names at all. So if I've got one and I think, fuck, what was that video? And then I'm searching, there's stuff I have to search. - Round cheeks, tattoo left cheek. - Tattoo on the left cheek, taxi in the woods.
- Yellow car. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yellow car. - About 38 minutes long. - Oh God, 42 inch weave. - Oh my God, that's hilarious. - Oh God, it's so funny. - Unique as jokes. - Right, sometimes we can't control where the P goes. You aim directly in the center and it just goes left or right. They'll never understand. - That's that literally, that's post-nut. - Yeah, that is. Post-nut, that's post-nut if you're lucky. If you're unlucky, you're getting a dual, dual wheeled up.
- Wait, 'cause the ting's straight in the middle. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - It's blocking the middle. - You got that resonance. - Yeah. - It's just saying it's . - Livid. - Oh my God. - Livid, bro. And you can only, you only know about it 'cause you're looking up like, oh. - Yeah, and you can't hear nothing. - Yeah, and you're like. - Yeah. - Hear it hit the floorboards and you're like, nah, please, bro. - She just thinks you're stubborn or stupid. - Yeah, you're disgusting. And then she walks in and smells of piss. - Oh, it's long. - And it's just long. Right, when your barber goes away on holiday without telling you.
- Without telling you he was heinous. - Oh bro, that's been me a good few times. - Yeah, to be fair, yeah. - A good few times. - Yeah, back in the day. I know who as well. That's heinous. - Right, last one. The struggle of knowing that the boys need you on the PlayStation, but you've got to go to some fucking sip and paint.
I've never been in that situation, but I can put myself in that situation and I can only imagine how angry I would be. - 100%. - Fucking sipping paint. - Sipping paint. - The boys need me right now, Paul. - We're running quads and this is what I'm doing with my night. - Sipping paint? - Yeah, nah. - Just to appease you. - I'm not doing sipping paint. Well, just because TikTok said it's fun. It's not. - It's fun for you. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's not fun. I can't paint. And I don't even like to drink.
- I don't even like drinking. Why are we doing this? - That's hilarious. - Oh shit. - Yeah man, some shit, Galdem just won't understand. - 100%, that was hilarious, I like that one. - That was good. Right, you have a recommendation for us. Go on. - Don't I just. Remski, can you pull it up please? This recommendation has been going crazy on the socials and being advertised all over the place.
- "The Day of the Jackal." - I've been watching it. That was actually my recommendation as well. - What episode are you on? - I'm on episode five. - I've just watched five, I need to watch six. - Yeah. - "The Day of the Jackal." - Oh yeah. - Eddie Redmond and Lashana Lynch. So Eddie Redmond plays a,
A spy and he's out here duping anyone for the right cost. - Okay. - He specializes in snipers. And so, no, he specializes in anything to be fair. He would just kill you off how he wants to kill you off. - Hitman, hitman, hitman. - He's a hitman, sorry. Yeah, what did I say? Spy? - Yeah, spy. - Yeah, hitman. So he's a hitman. And Lashana is a MI5 agent who specializes in snipers is what she does. Long story short,
every character that's tied to everyone else, all of their lives are breaking down. Like there's so much trouble in Eddie's life because he's married to Ursula who's played, her name is Nura. She is also in, what's that Spanish show? The Money Heist? - Is she in Money Heist? - She's in Money Heist. Yeah, I can't remember which country she is, but she's in Money Heist. - He's punching in that film.
He's punching in that film. It's ridiculous. Oh, that show, sorry. Yeah, he is punching. Um...
Yeah, everyone's life is just breaking down episode after episode after episode. And you just feel like everyone in that show is becoming the jackal because everyone has to do stuff that's almost unbeknownst to their natural character. - Yeah, it's unethical bro. - Yeah, unethical is the word. - What they're doing is unethical. All of them are, yeah. All of them are doing shit that they wouldn't normally do. - They wouldn't, ah. - To get to the bottom of it. - Yeah, bro. It's just so fucking good. I started it yesterday and I binged up until episode five. So I've got,
- One more episode to watch, 'cause it comes out weekly and it's only six episodes out at the moment. Maybe there might be seven now. - Maybe, yeah, yeah, yeah. - 'Cause I think it drops on Mondays, I believe, I'm not too sure. But yeah, man, it's good. - It's very good. It's good as well, because my brother asked me, I mentioned it to my brother earlier,
And he was like, I don't know. I don't see Eddie Redmayne as a fucking assassin. I'm not buying it. And I was like, the way they utilize his skill fits him perfectly. Perfectly with the different disguises and just like the long distance shooting and all this kind of shit. It fits him perfectly. He doesn't have to do any hand-to-hand combat or any of that shit where you just think, I'm not buying this character. The way they utilize his skills is spot on, bro. What I found funny about-
because a lot of like hit man fighting, whatever, there's always a scene where you see them topless or they show that they've been working out. In this scene, obviously he's a slim breader and there was a scene where he was doing, he was doing a plank.
- Oh yeah. - And he was doing, he's going for it. And he gets up and he looks at himself in the mirror, but we see the reflection of him in the mirror. I was thinking, this is pretty much the only thing you could have convinced me of that he is like training. Because if he was doing like bench press or any form of like massive physical activity, he's a slim brother. You can't really fake that. So I feel like that was the only way they could have done that. And I know his trainer would have said,
Listen you're gonna do this once Let's get you in shape Let's get you in shape It's really good man The Bianca character She's actually really good She's a really good actress in general She's like She's really good at How do I explain it
'Cause obviously like she's a dickhead in the show, innit? Like in terms of like she abandons her daughter and her family. - Her priorities are off. - Yeah, her priorities, that's what I mean by dickhead. Her priorities are all over the gaff. All over the gaff. Like her daughter nearly gets murdered. - Literally. - And literally half an hour later, she's pretty much like, "That's the game, bro."
- I also have to rate it. I have to rate it. - That's what I'm saying. That's what I meant. It's a really good character because you're looking at it and you're thinking, are you fucking serious? At the same time you're like, bro, we do need to catch the jackal. He's out on these streets. - This breader for context Rem is killing off higher people. You see what I'm saying? He's sniping man from what? 3,000. - Two miles away. - Two miles away.
And it's like heads of secretaries, like German this and German that. He's dropping some serious, serious, we have to catch him. - Yeah, we do. - We have to catch him. - We literally do bro. But yeah, it's, and he's getting away by the skin of his teeth. - He's in a, where are you at? 'Cause I think I'm one ahead of you. So what's happening where you still? - Where I'm at, spoilers in three, two, one. They've just raided the Irish guys.
Ting. They just read it as Ting. And my man's luckily escaped. And that's pretty much where I'm at. Okay. Yeah. Stuff happens, man. Stuff well and truly happens. It's a really good show. I liked how... I also like how they introduced Noora slash Ursula Nooria at the end of episode two. Because I thought, considering she's the third lead, my initial assumption was...
because spoilers again in three, two, one, Eddie didn't get paid for the first job that he did. - Oh yeah. - I thought maybe, oh, Nura is involved. You see what I'm saying? So the way they introduced it, I thought, okay, cool. Maybe 'cause since she's the third lead, there's a lot more that's gonna happen with her, a lot more development, but her route takes a completely different route, like I said.
everyone's life is in turmoil in the show. - Her brother's a little broke boy, he used to get the fuck out of my face. That's what he needs to do. Little far self. He was sucking Eddie's dick in the first one. Susie founds out, he's like, "I'm gonna break his." Shut up, man, you're gonna do nothing. - You're not gonna do shit. - You're not gonna do anything. - 'Cause you don't know what I'm about. - So shut the fuck up and get out of my yard, you pussy. The brother pissed me off. - Pissed him off. - And the mom as well, was running her mouth. - Yeah, it's a good role 'cause I expect that from a mom. - You do expect that from a mom. - She jumped to 100 immediately.
She's like, oh, I caught him out on a lie. He's cheating. He's a cheat. I hated that. I hated that bar. It pissed me off too much, bro. And she's like, why would you say that? Because that's not what I said. Yeah, literally, bro. Literally. And now the brother's on one. Yeah.
- Yeah, jarring bro. - Good show man. - Real good show. - Good show. - Really, really good show. I'm enjoying it. - 90% 8.1 IMDB. - Okay. I put it on a whim 'cause obviously when we landed on a Saturday, I was like, "Oh, let me just watch some stuff." And I saw that I was like, "Let me put it on." 'Cause I didn't even know how long I'm gonna be conscious. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I banged out four episodes. Easy, juicy bro. - Very, very, very juicy. - Very fucking juicy. So yeah, good recommendation. That was my recommendation as well. So Star Wars.
- I saw you watching episode three on the plane. - Yeah. - It got me excited. - So guys, girls, for those that don't know, I am doing a Star Wars, I say recap, I'm watching Star Wars properly for the first time. I have now watched Revenge of the Sith, which is episode three, but movie six in release order. Now definitely the best movie, best Star Wars movie I've watched. - Three. - Three, over Attack of the Clones. But that's in my opinion, top two.
I'm annoyed because I've got, is it Palpatine? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Senator Palpatine. Senator Palpatine, like Chancellor Palpatine. I mean, I'm annoyed because from when they first introduced him, I believe in episode one, if I'm not mistaken, I had already clocked that this dog is the Sith Lord. But it annoyed me that when Yoda and what's... Mace Windu? Windu.
When they sense that, or they can sense that, long story short, because of the force. I'm like, how are you not sensing that he's a bad guy? - Yeah, I hear it.
As an audience, you can see that he just covers like this part. You can see the bottom down. Like, this big man is the same person. It's the same person. - Yeah, the disguise is dead. - The disguise is so dead. - It's a hood. - It pissed me off that they tried to tease it that way, but within the same breath, you mean to tell me that Yoda and Windu can't sense that he is evil? - Mm, I hear it. - Like that, that for me didn't sit well with me whatsoever. - The fact that I'm only just even, yeah, to be fair,
Bro, it pissed me off. Yeah, I hear it. It pissed me off. That aside, the scraps towards the end between Obi and Anakin and Yoda and the Sith Lord, heavy. Yeah. Heavy, heavy, heavy, heavy, heavy. This is definitely my favorite one so far. I know I've seen the seventh movie, but now that I've seen this one, I don't know how...
they correlate in terms of, because one is the original, one's the prequel, one's the sequel or something like that. So I've not, I can't remember the correlation, but like I said, I'm going to watch the seventh movie, which is this, it's also the seventh,
one as well, isn't it? It's episode seven as well, isn't it? So I'm going to watch that one soon and give you more of an update. But yeah, this one is a really, really good one. I do like the fact that we saw the actual transition of Anakin to Darth Vader. I also like the fact that throughout the movie, he was wearing darker clothes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
because I knew that was gonna happen anyway, I wanted to see, no, because I assumed it was gonna happen, I wanted to see if it actually happened, which it, and it did. So I was gassed about that. - The fight between him and Obi-Wan is too juicy. - It's too juicy. - Did you see in the lightsaber bit, did you see where they both did the simultaneous
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Before the heat is up, yeah, yeah. - And I say, me and my brother, when we watch that in the cinema, screamed bro. - I bet. - Screamed bro. - I bet, I bet, I bet. I'm annoyed because obviously 2005, we're almost in 2025. This is 20 years ago. - Yeah, I was in year nine when this came out. - I can imagine what I would have felt if I'd seen that at the time. Pause. And it's one of those ones as well.
- There's lots of crazy balls in it. I could imagine what I would have felt if I'd seen that. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, wow. - Okay, have you seen Star Wars Rem? - I haven't. - Ellis? - Not all of them. - So this question Bailey is only for you then I assume. Well, I assume this question is only for you.
Now that we, now that I'm up to date per se, and I've seen episodes one through six, and we have seen that the production value, special effects and all of that gets better and better obviously as the years go on. But how...
how he released the movies was 456123. Do you think you would have had a better experience watching this saga if it released 123456, considering it gets better in technology or 456123? So if I had watched it, episode 123,
in present day and then watch a movie from the 80s 456 no no no he made them all now no no no he made them the same years he made them but he released episode one in 1977 not episode four
- Do you see what I'm saying? - I see you. And then I get to see- - Then you get to see- - Four, five, six. - Four, five, six in new age. - In 2005. - Yes. - All this kind of shit. Ooh. - Or do you like the fact that you can see Anakin turning into Darth Vader and all these things happening with better quality? - I like it how it is just based, but it's okay. For me, it's a hard, it's actually a hard one to deal with because, pause. Wow. Because
Because of the lack of technology that they had, the choreography is less. Limited. Yeah. Valid. They only do with what they can work with. Valid. So there's less fighting in those. So it's easy for me to say, oh, because there's more fighting in these, I'd rather see these in newer age. But I'm sure if they had the technology, they would have just introduced more fighting back then. Yeah. But.
I would still, based on all of the scenes, I think there's so much more action in the prequels. - Makes sense. - Way more action. So I'm happy how they came out. The fight between Obi-Wan and Anakin is one of my favorite fights in cinema history. Bro, it's so, and Anakin,
Loses himself of power Yeah he does When Obi-Wan's like I've got the high ground Just charge it bro Yeah yeah He can't beat me And he tries to Legs gone Shut the fuck up And get down Legs gone Yeah you think as your dark side You can just do whatever you want Yeah It's a It's a really really really good concept I prefer the prequel to the original I feel like
I feel like even as a standalone, the storyline of episodes one, two and three is incredible. - It's really good. - It's fucking incredible. - It's really good. - So I'm intrigued to watch the sequel, 789 and see if they match up with or correlate with anything. - They're pretty good. - I've also seen, I don't know how real it is, but they're looking to make another trilogy.
I saw it on socials, but then you can't believe everything you see, but I saw on socials they're trying to make another trade. - This franchise will not die, will it? Fucking hell. - I don't think it's George Lucas. I think it's maybe him in association with someone else. - Fair. - I don't think it's George Lucas. - I think the newer ones are good.
- 789. - 789. Is it even 789? 'Cause Rogue One is a completely different thing. - Yeah, but Rogue One and Han Solo aren't part of the trilogy. - Oh, what was the trilogy? What are they called? - I can't remember what they're called. But they were 789. So there's 789. So there's seven. - Oh, 10, 11, 12. - Rogue One, eight Han Solo. This is a paid advertisement from BetterHelp. - It's that time of year. It's cold outside. And when I say cold, it's cold. And you're feeling like, nope, forget going out in the cold.
I'm staying in. I'm staying cozy. 100% bro. Bro. And daddy likes co's. Who doesn't? I like co's. I like jumping in my bed. The other day, it was dark and gray and disgusting outside. Yeah. I closed the blinds. I closed the curtains. Yeah. I snuggled in bed. Yeah. I snuggled in bed, turned the heating off full blast. Yeah. And just, yeah, I watched everything.
I watched stuff until I couldn't watch stuff anymore. That's the best way to treat the winter. 100%. Bro, that's all you can do. Wrap up, hot chocolate, movie, and snugs snugs. Facts.

So The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and Rise of the Skywalker. Those are the last three. Force Awakens is pretty good. So that's seven. And then it goes Rogue One. Then it goes Last Jedi. Then Solo. Then Rise of the Skywalker. The Rise of Skywalker, sorry. Okay, fair play. God, I've seen all of these and I don't even remember. The new ones are good. But there's a lot more...
I would say the new ones have a lot more civilian intervention. So see how like similar to the original trilogy, where it's like Jedi shit is on the back burner because you've only got Luke and Obi-Wan and kind of like Yoda in there and Darth Vader. So there's no real force shit. It's all about the empire and the rebellion. The new ones are a little bit more like that.
Like what you just said? Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's more Jedi shit, but nowhere near as much as the prequel trilogy. Okay. Nowhere near as much. Okay. They are good though. Okay. I do like them, but there's a lot of like fish head captains, like other rebellion doing like a siege on...
an emperor starship and all that kind of um which i've i can't i think is okay okay i think it's a thought of my own that as a kid i only cared about jelys if you weren't showing me yeah if you weren't showing me lightsaber i'm not interested makes perfect sense because ultimately that's what especially i would say for like the younger ages that's what buys you into yeah 100 the show or the movie or whatever you know the franchise it's not all this yeah
Death Star bullshit. Facts. Question for you. Out of the six prequel and original, which one is your favorite? Probably same as you. Revenge? Was it Revenge of the Sith? Yeah. Yeah, Revenge of the Sith or Phantom Menace. I'm trying to remember. Phantom Menace is the first one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The first of the three. Episode one. Episode one. Episode one, I think at the time, was like one of the best things, bear in mind, it came out in what? 1999. 99. Yeah. So I would have been in...
What's that? Three years. Year four, maybe. I was what? 10 years old or nine years old. I did a billion in 1999. A billion in cinema. Jesus Christ.
- Yeah, I was locked in. And this whole, when we're talking about is the speed racer scene. - That was a good scene. - Obviously the CGI is over the top. But at the time I didn't know what that meant. So the CGI scene was fucking unreal to me. Introducing Jar Jar Binks, Darth Maul versus Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon Jinn. And when they're stuck between the separators.
And Darth Maul's like fucking scratching his shit against the floor and shit. Yeah. I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen in my life. Fair play. I thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever seen in my entire life. Fair play. So yeah, man, I think based on how it made me feel at the time that I watched it, I think actually Phantom Menace might be
the best my favorite one however that one bit of and then hit and register coolest thing i've ever seen yeah i think because i've watched it in like the space of a month month and a half i've seen six movies i can compare easily i would definitely say um revenge of the sith is my favorite one followed by um attack of the clones followed by
I would say maybe, did I say number two was my favorite at the time? Well, that would be number five.
- Whichever one that was talking while I was gassing up Darth Vader anyway. - Okay. - I can't remember which one that was. - Bet, bet, bet. - It could have been episode four, episode five. I can't remember. - Fair play, man. I'm enjoying these updates of yours, bro. - I'm enjoying watching them. So everyone that I've, when I first started this journey, everyone was telling me to please watch the animated "Clone Wars." I don't know if it's the series or the movie, 'cause there's both on Disney. I'm gonna watch both anyway. But I'm looking forward to starting that, but I wanna finish the movies first. - Okay. - Because there's like seven seasons. - Yeah, there's a lot. - I'm locked in.
Do you know what else tangent? Do you know what else I'm locked into that I've never seen before that I know you've definitely seen before? You probably have as well. Young Justice. - Fuck yeah, dude. Young Justice is sick. I can't believe they canceled that show. - Oh my God. - Oh my God. - So I've been binging that for like the past three weeks now. I'm on season three, which I think out of there's only, there's three seasons on Netflix, but there's four seasons in total.
the first two seasons, blow the third one out of the water. Yeah. The fucking finale or the last two episodes of season one where the youngest fight the oldest. Oh my God. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm, I'm,
Superman doesn't claim him. Oh my God. He doesn't claim him. That might be one of the best fight scenes I've seen. Bro, I've said this from time, Justice League or animated DC period is fucking amazing. Bro, after that, I did like a massive deep dive in-
animated DC and DC in general. And obviously for those that don't know, James Gunn is now head of DCE or DCUE, whatever it's called. If you don't know who James Gunn is, he directed all of the Guardians of the Galaxy, blah, blah, blah. So he's now on DC. And the first movie he's dropping is Superman, which I feel like everyone does, but I'm intrigued to see what it's like that comes out next year. But he's also done a series of,
with, you know, John Cena's character in Suicide Squad. I can't remember his name. - Oh, the, yeah, I know who he is. - Yeah, so he, they did a spinoff series in the same timeline. - Oh, I did see, I didn't watch it, but I heard of- - It's called Peacemakers. - Yeah, Peacemakers. - That's it, Peacemaker. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Peacemaker. So they, he did season one, they're doing season two, and he's also doing another,
limited series in the continuation of a different character. I can't remember, but I'm more interested in the animation ones. 'Cause yeah, they can use a lot more imagination and the fight scenes can be a bit more believable. - Bro, all DC animation, if you like this, there's so much other, did you ever watch?
batman of the future as a kid no bro no uh yeah no bro it's so good so yeah if you like this i would go watch justice league unlimited as well yeah that's after i finish this i'm gonna watch those two and um because if you can find it batman of the future as well okay you'll be on all the animated batman movies um what's it called the laughing joke there's a movie called the laughing joke yeah okay google that one for me please
Or the killing joke. The killing joke. Not the laughing joke. The killing joke. Sorry. The killing joke. Okay. Oh, bro. Okay. The killing joke. 4.7 out of 5. 4.4 out of 5. Say less. Yeah. I love it. The Batman. The animated Batman movies are so good. The Joker's fucking twisted. Oh, I bet. He looks... 6.4 on IMDb is haram. Fair play. That's a piss take. It's unbelievable. Okay. Say less. Yeah. I was about to just spoil the whole thing. Wow. I'm so glad I didn't.
Yeah, so good, bro. Okay. Yeah, animated DC is untouchable. I'm intrigued to see what James Gunn does with the DC universe. Gang. What's this IG thing that you went to show we'll talk about? Oh, it's just something I want to read. Oh, okay, gang. Cool. So I found this on IG. The caption is, ladies, choose yourself. I woke up to this nonsense after 11 years of marriage. And choose yourself is...
As I start reading, it will start making sense. - Okay. Was it, "I woke up to this bullshit after 11 years of marriage"? - No, after 11 years of marriage. - Okay. - He's sent his wife a letter and it says to my wife, "Dear wife, let me start off by saying that I love you dearly. You mean the world to me. However, I owe it to myself as well as you to be completely honest with you. I have come forward with my truth. I hate to do it this way, but it's now or never because what I'm about to say has to be said.
Tonight, on October the 22nd, 2024, marks the opening night for the New York Knicks 24-25 season. I will be watching the game tonight. This means from 7 p.m., in brackets, that's when pregame starts, to whatever time the game ends, I will not be a husband or a father.
You're on your own for a couple of hours. No, I will not watch your shows with you. No, I will not get you something sweet. I will not take the dog out. I will not get the kid to bed. I will not get the kid to bed either. I will sit on the couch, drink in hand and watch the game. That's it. This doesn't mean I don't love you. This doesn't mean I love you guys any less. It just means that tonight is not about you. It's about ruining the Boston Celtics ring ceremony.
Yeah. Yeah. The rest of the season is negotiable up until the point in time we reach the playoffs. Then I'll be, and then I'll have to abandon you guys temporarily. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me. And he put his number. You can call me out, but it's blanked out.
Well, you have my number anyways. Just call me if you need me. I look forward to seeing and talking to you later. After the game that is. Love, Fred. P.S. The child may stay up past bedtime only if he watches the games with me. If he doesn't want to watch it, then it's off to bed with him. Thank you. Damn. That's hilarious.
- Fucking choose yourself, you know. - Choose yourself. - Bro, that's fucking intense. Sometimes it needs to be said. - It needs to be said and I like the comical nature of it. - Yeah, 100%. And I've prioritized you man,
- Since day one. - Since day one. - But this is important now because the Celtics are running amok. - And I need to see what my boys of the New York Knicks can do. - Yeah, 'cause we can't just sit here and take this time after time. Jason Tatum is a beast. - He's taking the piss. - Bro, yeah, so yeah, that was fucking funny. I actually found a couple of tweets. I know I never contribute to tweets, but I found two the other day and they made me fucking laugh. - Go on, go on, go on. - So one is, it's not even a tweet, I saw it as a still from TikTok. - Yeah.
And is literally a light skin guy just staring off into the distance. And the caption is, it said, "My ex really blocked me, got in a relationship and is now engaged. Laugh my ass off. The lengths motherfuckers go to make me jealous is insane." - Ah, shut up. - It's not about you. - Bro! It's not the fuck about you, bro. - That's hilarious. - Jesus, that's fucking funny. The lengths people go to make me jealous is insane.
Right, and I got one more. Was it him that was complaining? Yeah, he's complaining. So my ex is moving mad, bro. That's hilarious. Oh, okay, cool. This one is not a tweet. This is actually a DM someone sent me as a dilemma. And when I say it made me laugh, because obviously we've been reading dilemmas and shit for years. And I forget how...
how funnier it is or how much funnier it is when I can see the person who sent it and they're talking about themselves. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Specifically to me. - Okay. - Right. Start opening line, dilemma type shit. - Yeah. - My girl is a stan and I don't mean she's just into the artist. She's obsessed with Nicki Minaj.
To the point to where she will blatantly throw off any female I mention that Nikki has a problem or beef with. Oh my God. I want her to have a more nuanced opinion about things and not get defensive or justify any and everything that happens with her. I hate stans. She looks up to Nikki as someone who...
with a moral compass. I enjoy celebrities and artists, but outside of anything legal or proven, I essentially don't get involved with the personal lives of celebrities or what they've got going on. Her justification is that she still listens to R. Kelly music.
She's saying she doesn't hate these women and she separates the music from the artists. Okay. But every time I bring up a female song that's not made by Nicki, she throws in a slick comment about the person and she goes the moral route of how they did Nicki wrong. I just want to listen to Glorilla's album in peace. Advice.
Funniest thing I've read I just want to listen to Glorilla's album In Peace How they did Nikki wrong Yeah yeah Relax man Bro That's a That's a stan And that's a Bro We're not listening to any other female That Nikki's ever had A problem with That's everyone in the game Yeah that is everyone in the game That's everyone in the game Bro If you can't listen to Glorilla Then what the fuck are you even doing Bro Yeah Glor
- Ah, bro, what's that? It's the G-L-O and the G-L-E-U. Yeah, bro. - Her interview with the Complex Spreader.
She was blushing in there. Yeah, they had a little chemistry. It was sweet in me. She says, Hurston. Hurston. Yeah. Hurston. Was she from Memphis? Yeah, I think so. I think so. Bitch, I'm from Memphis. What you know about me? Big G-L-O in the G-L-E-U. Bro!
- Nikki versus Lato. - Oh, is this all Nikki beefs? - Yeah. - All right, sorry, let's go to the top. I wasn't even paying attention. Right, so who we got? Cardi. - Obviously. - City girls. - I don't remember that. 2017. - Damn, okay. Lato, damn. Lil Kim, yep. Remember that one. - Oh, so fine. Meg V. - Meg, yeah, I remember that one. - Remy Ma, I remember that one. - And that's it. - That's it? - From this article. - For now. - From this article at the moment. - Okay, yeah.
- Damn. So yeah, that's troublesome because I like, especially the last couple of years, the female rap game in terms of catchiness. - Yeah, it steps up a lot. - It really has stepped up a lot. - I also feel like, this is a hot take, I also feel like because there was only,
Nicki at one point, then it was Nicki and Cardi B at another point. And now there's a lot more female artists that are breaking internationally in terms of the catchy hooks, you got your Lottos, you got your Gorillaz, you got your Megs, all of them ones. I feel like it's understandable that the OGs, i.e. Nicki and somewhat Cardi B, don't want to let go of that top spot. And this is the reason why they're having like these petty little, petty, I don't know how petty they are, but you know what I mean?
- But yeah, you actually have to let it go because these men are dropping bangers and you're just not keeping up. And that's fine because you had your moment. - You've had your moment. You can't always be number one. - Bro, you said it right when you said, "All these bitches is my sons." Like it's facts. - At the time, yes, bro. - It's cool. - And it slapped when she said it. - Oh, bro. - Shit it on 'em. - Shit it on 'em, man. I just shit it on 'em. - No one's making music like that. - Shit it. - Shit it on 'em.
- Bro! - No one was making music like that. - Nicki was in her bag. - She was in her bag. She was in her bag. Damn. - Damn, that anaconda one had me spun as well. The video was next level. - And the one, the video she was in with 6ix9ine. Do you remember? - No, I don't. - Googs obviously won't put it in the ting, but. Yeah. - Oh! - Yeah, bro. - Random, if you could clap your cheek in the bath like that, would you just do it for fun sometimes? - Like? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Like arch your back.
- And just have your cheeks clapping. - I don't think it, 'cause I'm just thinking in terms of like physics and geometry right now. So the way she was, so this is her head, this is her body, right? It's up. - It's just buoyant. - Exactly, it's too buoyant so it makes sense that minimal movement will create cause and effect. Whereas,
Even though my cheeks are a bit wedge. - Yeah. - They're static. - Yeah. - You see what I'm saying? - Mine are like, how do I say it? Like they're bulked up. - Exactly. There's no- - Density there. - Yeah. - Yeah. - There's no vivacious. - If you could, I'm not saying you can. I'm saying if you- - If I could, would I? - If you found out you could. Okay, so let's say you were just standing in the post office board and then you just like,
and you felt it was like, okay. And you're like, oh wow. And then you practiced and then you found out in your gums. - That I can make it clap. - That you can make it clap if you wanted to. Because you've just, you've unlocked the freedom. You've unlocked the freedom to just clap, clap, clap. Let's say one day you're in the bath and you've just seen that video yesterday. You're in the bath and you're about to get out so you roll onto your stomach.
- Yeah. - You roll onto your stomach and you clock just for a second. - Yeah. - That, or you say you were listening to music and you wanted to change the song. So your phone's here in front of you and you have to roll onto your stomach to place the phone. - Yeah, yeah. - And you realise now. - Keep talking, keep talking. - You realise now and there's a mirror, right? There's a mirror right in front of you. So you're looking up just like how Nikki was just looking up and you can see that your head is above water and everything else and the cheeks are buoyant.
Do you think just for one second, because you're looking at the cheeks, you would just go clap, clap, clap. I think the thing is, annoyingly, I would do it to see how I can make the water move. Do you see what I'm saying? Let me see what I can do. Can I create a tidal wave? What if you impressed yourself with the acrobatics of what your ass was doing?
- Do you think you would continue that or you'll just bury it forever? - I'll bury it forever. - You'd never do it again? - Never doing it again is a stretch. But it wouldn't leave the confounds of my yard. - All right, do you think you would practice other moves? Like a cheeky side lunge while you're making it clap? - Oh, this thing. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know exactly what you're talking about. I know exactly what you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah. When I practice it, no, 'cause I feel like I'll start entering,
Okay, so my issue, I say issue, my top hints about this kind of topic is a lot of it, yes, is very feminine, but ultimately it's just dancing. Do you see what I'm saying? Ultimately, yeah. So if I'm trying to put myself as- Very mature perspective, by the way. I'm trying to put myself as like Chris Brown's backup dancer, for example. And Chris Brown has male and female dancers for certain songs. So, and certain songs-
certain man will have to do certain things that probably woman will only do. And if I categorize myself as a dancer, would I want to be doing these things on stage? Maybe not, but at least I know I can learn this move and do this move. Do you see what I'm saying? - Fair. - So what was the original question? Would I do it? - Would you do it if you, yeah, if you would you practice other moves
- If you knew now that you've unlocked the ability to do it, because I physically can't. And in your current state, I'm sure you physically can't as well. - I cannot. I physically cannot. But I don't think I would unless I had ulterior goals, i.e. being a dancer. Does that make sense? - Fair. - I wouldn't do otherwise. - Do you think you would do it, okay, not practice, but do you think you would, if you ever found yourself on your stomach again, that you would do it anecdotally? So let's say you're sleeping, Matt. Let's say you're sleeping, both arms under the pillow.
- Do you think if you're struggling to sleep or whatever, I'll keep one eye open and maybe just like punch the bed and just let it, just let the cheese shake. Yeah, yeah. And then you just, you can just hear it go. - I don't think I would do it, 'cause I'm actually imagining myself jumping in bed doing that now. I don't think I would do it
as a joke if I couldn't sleep type of thing. I think I would do it if I've jumped into bed and I feel the wiggle as I've jumped, 'cause the bed shakes, my ass would shake. Then I'll just keep up the shake. Do you see what I'm saying? When you jump in bed, things move, no? - Number three. Me and you have had many an occasion in a dance, tipsy, banger comes on. You've now unlocked this talent.
when are you showing me? 'Cause I know eventually you'll show me. When are you showing me Sutton? And not even Sutton of- - 'Cause I know you'll show me. - Not even Sutton as like a little, like a little jokey. Like, oh, I'm joking, but I'm gonna let James know I can actually do it. - I can dance. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - So the question is, am I showing you or what am I showing you? - Ooh, you are showing me, I know you will. What are you showing me? Because there's options. You could show me,
- Like a little. - Don't ruin my fantasy right now. Don't ruin it, don't ruin it. I can see it in my head. We're in a club live. - Yeah. - We're in club live. - In Manchester? - Manchester. - Fucking hell. - The old club live. - Okay. - The old club, so that circular joint, that's tight. - Yeah. - All right, cool. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Circular joint, club live. Lollies in hand, obviously. - Yeah, obviously. - We've done our laps. We've had a few drinky poos. And for example, Nicki Minaj, Gloria, one of them type drawings comes on where the girls are going crazy. I'm setting the stage. We're looking for gal, we're looking for gal.
but then I feel like, you know what, fuck it. You know when you just start diving, you start vibing thinking all the times we've said to ourselves, oh fuck, I wish I was a woman in a club. I wish I was a woman in a club. - We haven't said it that many times by the way guys, but yeah. - You know what I mean. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - You said it. - Yeah, we said that couple. - You said it. - Wish I was a girl in a club. - This guy's just let out secrets.
- Okay, yeah, carry on. - So in my head, in my head, you know, you start off like, you start off, let me land, man. - Yeah, I'm sorry, go on. - Let me lock in, let me lock in. You start off like, - That's so embarrassing. - You start off like, right, lock in. And you start doing the Beyonce thing. The one leg, one leg, you know the Beyonce shake? That one. - Yeah. - And then I will take, I'll take it one step further.
Once I start doing Beyonce, you'll be looking at me like, "Yeah, I swear, is that you?" Then I'll, "Hmm?" Then I leg launch, "Dah, dah, dah, dah." - Wow! - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Three. - Three of them make me go off. - Three get up and then, "That's me for the night." - Okay, fair. - That's me for the night. - Fair, fair. Wow, I know the thing is, pause ahead of time. I know I'd ask you to do it again.
I just would. Because I've not seen that side of you before. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. I need to... Yeah, nah, nah, nah. You landed each clap too perfectly. Run it back. I'll say, do it again, do it again. And I wouldn't chastise you in the side. I wouldn't bully you because I need to make sure you do it again. I wouldn't embarrass you. I'd say, nah, nah, that's mad. That's mad. Do it again. That's hilarious. That's fucking nuts. Funny question. Rem, you had a fun fact for us. You did. Yes, I do. So, did you know
Just over 200 million years ago, that rainfall fell on the earth for nearly 2 million years straight. I'm sorry? About 230, I think it's 234 million years ago, rainfall fell on earth for up to 2 million years. I actually think I saw this on Twitter today, but I didn't read into it, but I saw the caption, but yes, go on. Mm-mm.
So, you know those days where it feels just like it hadn't stopped raining? It's got nothing on the Carnian Pluvial Event, otherwise known as the 1-2 million year stretch of Earth's history where a solid chance of rain was not the rule. Was the rule, not the exception, sorry. About 232 million years ago, when like the downpour that falls for a long hot summer, unusually heavy and persistent rain brought an end to one of Earth's dry spells.
At the time, the planet's continents were smushed into a supercontinent, Pangaea. Remember we learned about the Pangaea the other day? Which was already prone to monsoons. The sea's temperature was akin to hot soup. Paleo environment researcher Paul Wignall told New Scientist, meaning there was already a lot of moisture kicking about in the air to make a monsoon. So what triggered things to get even wetter?
Unlike the unusual end to a hot summer, some have suggested it was down to a series of huge volcanic eruptions that took place on the Rangelia Terrain, which nowadays sits along the coast of Alaska and British Columbia. Volcanic eruptions are known to mess with level of water vapor in the stratosphere. It happened after the recent Hunga Tonga Hunga Hape eruption.
And according to geoscientist Jacopo del Corso, Rangelia eruptions were peaking during the Carnaean. One of the consequences of all this rain is thought to have been a period of increased extinction for life on Earth at the time. Particularly for marine creatures like Ammonoids, Conodonts and Crinoids. But it might have also set the stage for new life, particularly when it came to dinosaurs.
In a study published in the Journal of the Geological Society, one team of researchers wrote that "In the wake of wide extinctions of plants and key herbivores on land, the dinosaurs were seemingly the main beneficiaries in the time of recovery, expanding rapidly in diversity, ecological impact and regional distribution from South America initially to all continents."
So, how do we know it happened? The first evidence of the Carnet and Pluvial event came courtesy of geologists in the 80s, most prominently the UK duo of Alastair Ruffell and Michael Sims. Ruffell had identified a stripe of grey running through the red stone of Somerset's Loop Hill, a feature that indicated the region had gone from a period of intense dryness to seriously wet.
However, when Ruffell, alongside Sims, published a study saying as much, there was also evidence from Germany, the US and the Himalayas. And it wasn't taken very seriously. There's a quote here of Sims saying, I remember one or two senior academics thought it was a preposterous idea. While Ruffell and Simmons moved on to other things over the years, evidence support their theory slowly began to stack up.
Now this area of research is so popular that there's even been a conference dedicated to it. - Damn. - Million years of rain. - I wouldn't make it two weeks. - I wouldn't survive. - Of constant rain? I wouldn't make it two weeks. - It is considered a mass extinction event, so. - Oh, facts. - Yeah. - No one will survive in that. - That makes sense. - Nobody. - Damn. - If you guys could, oh sorry, before I can say my question, do you have more context? - No, no, that's it. That's the fun fact of the day. Two million years of rain.
I feel like I've asked this question before. If you guys could time travel to a specific time slash specific event in history that we've known or whether it be flash forwarding as well to stuff that we don't know, what timeframe would you go to? And what would you like to see? You asked it not long ago, I'm pretty sure. Did I? Yeah. What was your answer? I don't remember. I don't know my answer. I think your question was before. I think it was, would you rather go back to a certain era or go...
in the future, somewhere. I think it was that before. - Because I feel like stuff like this, obviously it's somewhat proven, but raining for one to two million years or like dinosaurs being extinct or like seeing the ice age or like all these things that we're never gonna see, but just have to have, just to have to believe what the books say. I don't know. I may wanna see some of that shit, man.
- Yeah, I think I would wanna see like way in the future. Technology excites me way more than like dinosaurs and shit. If I'm being honest. - Technology over history. - Yeah, technology over history to me for sure. - How far would you like to go? Far forward would you like to go? - Probably not even that far, maybe like 200 years. - Yeah, 'cause that's inconceivable. - Yeah, the way shit's cooking at the minute, 200 years.
i'm i'm down to clown bro i want to see what's going on in that did you know that um well i i saw a guy on tiktok breakdown june the other day oh i think in the month okay sorry june um and was talking about like all the books but specifically three specific books um that one of which this series is based on about the genie uh benny jessera and apparently dune is actually set
They don't really touch on it, but Dune is actually set way in the future.
- Okay. - Way in the future, past AI. So you'll notice that they don't really have any, even though they have like time travel and this kind of shit, they use humans for all the things that we would use AI for. So apparently in the Dune universe, there was actually a war, like similar to like the matrix type war. There was a war between humans and machine. - Okay. - And once humans won, they had to evolve over tens of thousands of years to do the things that machines do. So when you watch Dune, do you remember the old black guy who like,
- I was gonna say it's one or two. - All black guy and he like eyes rolls, he rolls his eyes back and they turn white and he does like mad calculations and shit in his head. - Yes, yes, yes, yes. - So he's like, there's a specific race of people that have evolved to do shit like that. - Okay. - And you know the fact that they have now they need spice to navigate like interstellar travel and stuff like that. And they have people who wear like kind of like fishbowl helmets and shit like that. And they use spice to direct, to navigate through
like light speed shit. That's a different race of people that have evolved to do what machines do. And the Bene Gesserit is another...
specific race that have evolved to do shit because they refuse to use, they have like a law that's like no human shall ever create a machine to imitate what the human brain can do or something like that. Yeah, interesting. I had no idea about that. - How many books are there? - A lot. - So there's gonna be a lot more movies or series or whatever? - Not necessarily. - Because they can put a couple in one movie type of thing? - Yeah, I think they smush a couple into one movie and a lot of them, they go wayward. - Oh, okay. - There's a lot of shit.
Although I think they might make another movie because apparently Paul Atreides' son is a very important character in the Dune universe. Okay. Even more important than Paul Atreides himself. Okay. So they might do a couple movies about Homeboy. Okay. But I have no idea. But yeah, I found it... The guy on TikTok...
