That was pretty good. That was close. Wait, did you guys already open yours? No, go. Hold on. Let me... Ranch water. Oh, shit. Ranch water. Is the greatest drink ever on because... What? Yes. What? Boy. Wieners. Oh.
This spiraled. This was no. Wieners are. It's going in a good direction. Stop. Wieners are. My. Favorite. Thing. Ever. To. Put. In. My. Mouth. Because. They. Taste. Yay! That was fucking. Ranch water. Ranch water. Because wieners taste great. Seriously. Ranch water is pretty badass.
This is their new commercial every time. It's just a random block. I had such high hopes for that intro. I was so excited to do that. And immediately, we were four words in. We're like, hi-yah. Just fucking, hold on guys, let me just smack my face off the table because fuck any thought I wanted to have. What the fuck, man?
Oh yeah, bro. That went from zero to 60 to trash so quick. But I will say we recovered it very nicely in the end. Exactly. Well done, boys. Well done. Welcome to the podcast. Unsubscribe. Unsubscribe podcast. Featuring Eli, Double Tap. Featuring Batty Streams. It's just Batty. And Donut. Bonut Bopperator. Bonut Bopperator. Bonut. That was like the first time we got to like really hang out when we went to the Demo Ranch shoot.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. True. That was like, I think we hung out once before that, right? Yeah, SHOT Show. The Demo Rant shoot was before SHOT Show. Oh, really? SHOT Show, we cemented our friendship by staying up all night, literally all night, gambling and drinking. Yeah, and then took the sketchy limo ride. But then we went to where you almost blew us up.
You were like, hey, I'm going to smoke a cigarette next to this fine propane tank. Oh my God. That wasn't even Vegas, was it? No, that was after. That was at the Triarch event. Yeah, that was Texas. Okay, we're on like eight different events now. I think that was the first hangout after Vegas. Have we talked about the Triarch event? I don't think we have.
We had a baddie. Go on on how you almost. So we were all really drunk. And when you're drunk, sometimes, you know, you just need a cigarette because you're a scumbag. So we're all like, fuck it. We're going to go to the gas station, buy some more booze. And we're going to walk. We're walking a mile from the hotel. Mind you. And we're walking a mile to the goddamn gas station from our hotel on the side of a highway.
and we get there, we got like Leon Lush with us, us, and then, and we were just fucking drunk. Leon's walking around the gas station with a fake baby mask on. Which he purchased. He did buy it, that's right. Do you still have that, Leon? And then we went outside to smoke our freshly bought cigarettes and... With our booze. With our booze, yeah, in the paper bags behind the gas station. We're behind the 7-Eleven. We just walked behind it to smoke, and it was like, I'm halfway through a fucking burn, and we're all sitting there, and...
And I think it was you, Cody, who was just like, hey, man, you want to move? And I'm like, what are you guys talking about? I have my elbow up on top of... It was a cage of propane tanks. And we're all drinking besides 7-Eleven, 30 years old plus. And yeah, I turn and look, and Batty's just leaning on... And I'm ashing my cigarette into the propane tanks.
So our thing was like, imagine if we all blew up and they show up and then fucking Leon's baby mask melted to his face. He was wearing it like on the top of his head and he just outside smoking like a hat. And they show up and the firefighter's like, man, this guy got really fucked up.
Dun dun. Okay, what do we got? Let's watch the evidence video, okay? We have a man walking around in a baby mask, okay? The ginger seems to be the lead on this team. He's ashing into what appears to be a propane tank. And that's when they all died right about there. It's a close case right there. The worst part is after you're like, oh, yeah, what the fuck? I just walked like five feet away. Like, I don't know.
Gabe just gave me a cigarette and we're all beside the 7-Eleven smoking cigarettes, drinking Four Locos and shit. Oh, wow. We were in high school again. Welcome to our podcast. Yeah, our podcast is a representation of that moment. Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, yeah, fuck, man. That was good. But yeah, Bonob Operator. That was the demo. That was the triarch shoot. Yeah, we shot a bunch of suppressed ARs out of helicopters. Oh, yeah, that was. I got to shoot Matt's Uzi. And you, what did you do? I resupplied ground forces with a magazine out of the helicopter just so they would have an extra one. AKA, you just dropped a fucking full mag. I definitely just dropped a full mag right out of a helicopter. Reloading! Reloading!
Reloading again! I need another one. Oops. Somebody had to do it, and I'm just glad it wasn't me. That was the first time I hung out with all the guys together. Oh yeah, that was. Who invited you out there? Triarch. Was it? Yeah. Was it really? Yeah. We didn't invite you? Nope.
Yeah, that's why I was like... Weird, I wouldn't have invited him anywhere, so that's not surprising, I guess. Batty's still in the list. I mean, you may have brought it to Triarch, but other ones you haven't asked. I think one of us at least brought it to Triarch. I would assume my friends were like, hey, we have this small ginger guy, and we don't have a ginger on the roster right now. So small is a very technical word. We're talking about his viewership at that time. You're really going to go right into being fat. Have you guys? Really? That's it, we're...
Less than ten minutes and you're gonna call me fat? Alright, more importantly, have you guys heard about Angry Cop's dick?
Oh, yeah. It's all iced up right now, huh? Yeah. Angry cops messed up his wiener. So angry cops is going on a torrent on Tinder. And... Sorry. He had surgery. A hernia? Yeah, he had three hernias. Three herpias. No, hernias. He had three hernias. And whoever at the VA was managing his penis ripped out his catheter.
It fucked up. His dick? Yeah, it scratched his penis up really bad. And then he couldn't get the lidocaine gel. And he's all messed up. It's bruised. I love you, Rich. God damn it. His shit's all bruised. And it hurts when he pees. Razor blades. Didn't you see his balls were all swelled up? Yeah, everything's fucked up right now. Rich, send me a picture of your balls, dude. I want to know how bad they look. My favorite part is they shaved his stomach. So it looks like he's wearing a fucking altar top. He's got free bra.
He's wearing a halter top right now. That made it so hairy. I like how he shouted out his sponsors. He's like, sorry, Dollar Shave Club. It's the perfect transition. So this is what happened today. They fucked up my chest hair. Dollar Shave Club for Valentine's Day. Hi. It was beautiful. That man, he is a content genius. Anything he does is just...
funny and i hate him for it especially when he rants about things it's so funny do you see the one where he's like i'm hairy so stop whining i learned that i i lift weights and learn to eat pussy because i'm hairy and he's like so mad at everybody he's like that's how i get girls i love rich oh my god yeah we need to get him out here again soon oh yeah on this podcast he's not a big gamer but
I mean, that'll make it even more fun. So we can laugh at him for not being a nerd. When the nerds get together and you have the one not nerd on the podcast, it's like, you fucking normie. Well, he did that review of that girl that's, she's like a Tinder, not a Tinder, a TikTok. You do TikTok, Batty. Absolutely. The bunny, yes. It's like an ethog, girls. I looked at this girl. I was like, that's a Batty girl. And the girl's like, I almost think that's a Batty.
Oh, she was doing the fucking... Yeah, and then Rich is like, Stop! What the fuck is wrong with you? The fuck are you? You're 30. You're 30 and dressed up like your cat. Who finds this attractive? It's like, Batty does. Batty 100% would love this girl right now. Hey, Rich, I'm going to need you to send me that girl on...
It's not it. It's your boy. Dude, I... Onesie. I just... I'm not in a onesie. It's a romper. A romper? Yeah. We need to talk about it. That girl... His point behind that girl, too, was the low effort in TikToks because she didn't even try to put any effort into it. She just went...
It was like there was such low effort. And it was terrible. I see the videos that go viral on TikTok and you're like, this is not acceptable right now. Well, like there's a lot of them that are all based on like the timing and the beat of the background track. And you see some of these girls and men that do it too. And then they're like, I'm just out of beat with everything that's happening. It's like you can't.
You know what TikTok is, Barry? I'm going to explain it to you. I'm going to explain this for everyone. This is going to be the Eli rant for this. Guys, everyone that's on TikTok, this is what TikTok is. Hey, I'm not fucking funny and I don't know how to create my own content. Let's go on a TikTok. Okay. Oh my God, this is an ABC tutorial on how to do it. They actually build up the structure so I don't have to do anything. Hit play. Okay, I just have to sing to this music. Okay, or I just have to...
mock my voice to this and it cuts it for me. TikTok in a nutshell. - Basically. - Yeah, yeah. - Falling out my boy there. - Oh, Batty has, Batty, how many subscribers do you have on TikTok? - Tip top. - Tip top? - Tip top. - How many? - 20, almost 30,000. - See, he has 30,000 followers. - Donut's got like 100K, shut the fuck up. - Yeah, but-- - How many videos have you done? - They keep getting suspended.
My last one got suspended because my cat squirt was at the front door and I opened the door and I was like, I said my Chinese food is here and they fucking suspended. Yeah, TikTok doesn't like me very much.
But no, no, it's funny. The people who actually are creative suck on TikTok, I guess, because I find you as like a great content creator, but you get on TikTok and it's like your videos don't do as well as what Eli was talking about. It's like you get on there, you lip sync a little bit and it gets four million views. Batty makes badass stuff on TikTok. He showed his, you showed your whole gaming room and stuff. That was really fucking cool. That one did really well. That one did really well. Because that's content. That was fucking good content. That's you being creative. Yeah.
But otherwise it's like man reacts to water burger for first time. And it's like him watching another person eat water burger. And he's like,
And it has a melody in the background. It's like 40 million views. And you're like, okay, well, I hate myself. This is where, why am I putting any effort and content at this moment in my life? Why do we spend days writing scripts and thinking of the cinematography and filming? I mean, I don't. Eli does. I know, and that's why we've talked. I'm a piece of shit. Demo knows this. We've talked to Demo where I'm like, we do days of shoots and editing, weeks of editing, and
And then demo's like, why would you do that? You can just record it and edit it that day and it's done and get a few million views. You're like, oh, you have the perfect formula for content right now because it is so good. You don't even have to do anything. It's like, hi, guys. We're going to see how many bullets of fucking thing blah, blah, blah goes through today on Demo Ranch. What am I...
I think he did a video of you, but he was like, we're going to see what caliber goes through the earth. Have you seen that video? No. He's mocking each person that's a gun individual in demos. Oh, that's one of his older ones. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He goes through all the gun tubers and he just does a quick silly thing of how they do their intros and shit. Jesus. Yeah. So good. He's like, let's see if a .22 can go through the earth.
Oh, I barely went through 50 like a second and it's hard cuts out of it. The next person. My God, this is perfect.
demo was the person that taught me to carry around a camera on my hip so people ask me on videos all the time they're like what's on your hip your dad back it's a camera because demolition ranch does that and since then my second channel has grown several hundred thousand followers so the man has and like he has a like yeah he doesn't he doesn't do scripts he's just
He just holds his camera up. When we directed him, I think it was G-Man. G-Man's not used to directing and things like that. Phenomenal cinematographer. I was like, okay, Demo, this is what I want. He's like, okay, so for camera angles, I'm going to need you to do... I was like, stop, Gallagher. Just fucking stop. Demo, be you.
With the .50 cal and you're talking about zombies, it was like, okay, hey, guys, why? He just grabs the camera and goes into his fucking. Instantly, and we just had the other one on the sticks just waiting as capture that whole thing and then tied them together. And I was like, one take, done. I was like, there, we're good. And G-Man was like, oh. I was like, that is. I was like, you know how these people do their job and you let them do their fucking job. Because it was fucking perfect out the gate. We didn't have to touch anything.
That was so good, too. That was the veterans versus sci-fi. Veterans versus sci-fi on Black Rifle. Yeah, and Matt's. I think that's Matt's. Yeah, on Matt Best's YouTube channel. It's so good. That was awesome. That took a lot of time.
beautiful in that as always. Jack Mandeville. Shout out to Jack Mandeville. He's a goddamn gem of a human. Please follow him. He is a gem. I love talking about Jack content because it is so different from everyone. He's like, Jack's content is definitely Jack's content. When we hang out every time, I'm like, Jack, you could explode so big.
If you pulled back on the content style that you do. Because when I hit your story and I just see your belly button angled upwards to your face forever. Just that top going. Like, Ed, I'm on Jack's feed right now. I know this angle.
Dude, the first time I met him, I grabbed his dick three times. Wait, what? Backstory, please. It was a Vette TV skit. So I was like the civilian police and he was the military police. He's like, I know what I'm doing.
And I'm like, oh yeah, really? And then I grab his dick and his balls. But we had to reshoot it. So that was my first time meeting Jack, was just grabbing his junk three times. Did you full-on grab? Oh, full-on, yeah. I was in the role, just like, wah! So that was my first time meeting Jack, was sexually assaulting him three times. Yeah! Just straight up. Yeah. Yeah.
Cause he's like, I know this move. And I'm like, Oh really? Bah. This fights every man. And that's how I met Jack. And now we're good friends. And I bought him a boiled peanuts a couple of weeks ago. Best Tinder day ever.
It was amazing. God damn it, dude. I matched with him on Grindr. It's like, Jack, can I take you to the Pearl Farmer's Market? I want to go to the Farmer's Market. We haven't been in a little bit. I know. We need to go there. Dude, the Pearl's Farmer Market in San Antonio is so good. Have you been there? Yes, I think so. Every Saturday and Sunday. It's beautiful. How old are we? We're talking about how good the Farmer's Market is. Woof!
There's a dog murdering someone right now. Yeah, there's chicken nuggets here. I mean, I get that excited over chicken nuggets too. Eli knows. That's actually Batty barking right now. It's not Squirt. Who I've just kidnapped. It's the soft cat. It's the friendly puss. No, Jones is the friendly one. Oh, that's Squirt actually. That's an angry cat. I'm surprised he's so nice right now. No, he's not. He'll get there. He's biding his time. Don't look at me. He's a gangster. Don't look at me.
One ginger's a lot at the table. Fuck you. He's like, I could murder you right now until I get really tired. Tell everyone how you feel. Bitch, you countin' your time. Speaking of farmer markets, co-op games. I'm gonna just transition it that way. Did you just co-op that? I did. I said because you were talking about going together. Well done. No, I know. Co-op. That was forced.
I'm drinking again, too. Look at this. I'm back on the ranch water. You never quit. So on our video game podcast, we haven't talked about video games at all yet.
We've been. We love you, Jack Mandeville. I mean, I would talk about Jack for an hour. At least. At minimum. We all have really good Jack stories, probably. I don't have a good Jack story. I've only got to hang out with him a couple times, but it was amazing every time. I'm texting Jack right now. Jack, come over. Tell him I just. All right, we're doing a rager tonight, guys. Jack's coming over. Jack! He will hang out so hard. Like, the last time I was with him, he was like, I just want to hang out with people. Like, not going to lie, I'm lonely. Out here in, uh.
Just by myself. No one really hangs out with me. So I'm going to force myself on you tonight, Eli, until you leave. So can we go grab a drink? I was like, yeah, buddy, let's go grab some drinks. And he was just there the entire night. Those stories were so good, too. Oh, just Jack hanging out. Jack, invite yourself. Yeah, just more places. Just invite yourself to us. We would love you on this, actually. Is he a nerd?
Can we make fun of him for not being in there? What does Jack do in his spare time? What does he do? Welcome to the Jack Mandeville podcast. We try to uncover what Jack Mandeville does on a day-to-day basis. What is this? A day in the life? Day in the life. That was my thing I was going to do for a while. You need to still do that. I know. Because I'm going to do all of you.
Oh, God. Because I'm going to wake up in the bed with you, and then we're going to do a day in the life. You're going to wake up in my bed? Yeah, that's what we're going to do. We're both going to wake up in the bed, and we're going to be like, oh, a day in the life of Batty. And that's how everyone's going to start.
Hopefully it builds up to where, like, Matt already agreed to. Matty, what's the first thing you do in the morning? Well, as you've seen last night, burpees. So we wake up, we do 10 burpees. A lot of CrossFit. We start a lot of CrossFit. Are they hard right now? You're taking a shit now. Okay, here we go. We'll start your day. I know.
This dude right now. I went to bed at 11 a.m. Stop. Okay, no. No, this dude, we're like, we have a podcast today. I forgot. We set a time. Then we say, we're going for food. Batty texts us, hi. Before we went for food, he said, hi. And then nothing. We're both calling him. We don't hear a thing.
And then I finally get a hold of him. He's like, huh? What's up? Like, Batty, Batty, I'm not hanging up until you stand up out of fucking bed. Batty. He's like, what? I'm just over there. Okay, stand the fuck up because you just said hi an hour ago and said I would be here and we have a mimosa waiting for you across the table. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Okay, I'm telling you. I was like, dude, no joke. I started the shower. I was like, he said I can't shower. And I turned it off and fucking left. I did. I said, Batty, don't fucking shower because I knew. I was like, this dude's going to take a shower. That's what I do every day. I do it every day. I wake up, take a fucking shower, brush my teeth, and then I fucking get out of the house. I'm a night shower. Usually fucking. And then you put your onesie on. It's a romper, not a onesie. It's cute. How many pieces of clothing is it? I don't know.
How many pieces? It's not a twosie or a threesie. What is it? It's not a twosie. Donut has a twosie on. He has jeans and a shirt. Look at Eli right now. He's got... Oh, I'm wearing a shirt too. He's wearing a twosie. Weird. What are you wearing? What are you wearing, Patty? Twosie.
I look good in a romper. I have two. I almost wore my other romper, but I can't like pop the collar as much on the other one. It's gonna be shorter. John gets scared out there. I love my son. That was a good one.
Fuck you and your twosies. Fucking weirdos. Video games, am I right? Nobody even listens to our podcast for video games. You know we talk about them. People are here just listening to you guys call me fat and me to say I hate you both and drink ranch water. And batty gaming.

The only thing that'll make you hate your friends more than just being around them, playing Mario Party with them. Dude, any of those old co-op games where you actually... It doesn't happen anymore. I think the other day, speaking of that, we talked about how kids don't even have sleepovers anymore because you do not do...
Well, there's a pandemic. No, no, no. Before the pandemic, though, even like John's age, he's 11 now from like seven. I don't know when I was like six or seven, I would go to my friend's house and we'd play Nintendo, Super Nintendo, whatever. But even him before the pandemic, like none of this, like...
Kids just didn't do it. Yeah. Dude, that was like... Kids just don't do it. Friday night, Saturday night, and you'd be like, Mom, we go to the same school. Can I just wake up and go to school with him? And he'd be like, not on a school night. You'd go to the weekend. Dude, every weekend. You'd have a sleepover or some shit. Just to do dumb shit with your friends. Yeah, you play video games. Split screen, the couch streaming. You play Goldeneye, Mario Party.
However you could ruin your friendship, that is what you did. Did you ever hang out with a kid because he had a better video game system than you? Absolutely. I feel like you've never done that. Okay, me and Casey, we're still besties. Casey Pickett. Bro, what's up? Shout out. I talked to you yesterday. Shout out Casey Pickett. Is this the kid with the balls? Casey has balls. Casey has balls. Casey has balls. I told the story. I don't know if I can say this seriously.

Like, Casey had the PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Sega Saturn. But for, like, his PlayStation, this is, again, my poverty ass. Dirt floors. Yeah, free lunches. Socks. Exactly. Do you remember free lunches? I do. I got free lunches. Yeah, boy. Free lunch club. That's how we know that. By the way, we were all very poor. But he had 130 PlayStation games.
Yeah. So all the PlayStation games. He would have every game always Nintendo 64. I don't like PlayStation. I don't like Casey. Casey, you privileged ass motherfucker. Motherfucker. Casey, once you get there, right? Fucking bullshit. Little bitch. Casey has balls. That's the name of this episode. Casey has balls.
This is a meme in the 20s. I just put his face on the profile. He's like, why would you do that to me?
Where did the Casey have balls? I have no idea. He just got made fun of as a kid. Imagine being a guy and being made fun of just because you have balls. Batting your straight. You're like, why am I getting made fun of? You got a dick, you fucking weirdo. You kiss girls, bro. And then everyone on our podcast unsubscribed. I mean, it's the fucking name.
Holy shit, dude. That's it, man. He had 130 PlayStation. He had like everything, basically. All of them. Like one came out and he would just, he'd have it. Yeah, like so he had every PlayStation game. He had a whole like drawer full of Nintendo 64 games and then Super Nintendo and all that. He had all that too. So we'd always just go through all his game systems and we just fucking play it, have a good time.
But that's, that was my co-op buddy. We'd just be like, okay, let's play perfect dark. Let's play gold. And I like gold. I guarantee you guys played the shit out of gold. And I growing up with like those groups of people, I guarantee you had your core that you're like, these are the people I always play with. This is the best. This is the best. Like this guy's good with this gun. This guy's good with this gun. This guy knows this. And Oh,
When you played, what was it, Oddjob? And then you crouched down. No one could shoot you. Yeah, that was like cheater mode right there. Oddjob just couldn't get shot anyways because he was like, and then you crouch and he's like. Yeah, your gun wouldn't level on him. So he could go around and just throw fucking knives and do whatever he wanted to do. He was the cheater guy. We'd play, what was the gold mine map? It was library. Ooh.
There was library and the other one. There was one more. What was the one on the dam? Facility? Facility. Facility. It was like, was it? Yeah. The dam was called. The facility was the library though, wasn't it? Wasn't it that one? With the books in it everywhere? There was the middle floor and then the basement. You never did the basement. You did the middle floor. There was like two maps everyone played.
It was just like a two-story, a small two-story, and you go upstairs and downstairs. I want to go back and beat 007. I don't. It's not age 12. No, you know you can put it on your computer, and you can hook up your mouse and keyboard. Okay, okay. We have Temple Complex. I remember Temple. Complex. Complex. Everyone played Complex. Caves, Library, Basement. Basement was fucking amazing. Facility, Bunker, Archives, Water Caverns, Egyptian. Archives.
Statue Park was fucking Cradle in the Quad. Yeah, there was only like three maps that you play with your friends competitive. The rest you were just like not worried about. Dude, Statue Park was the map. Jesus Christ.
God. Complex and library, I think, was like our jam. I think so. Are you taking your heart-shaped container of Chick-fil-A nuggets upstairs? That is a kid that's living the life. He has a heart-shaped container. It looks like he's drinking coffee as he wanders to his estate upstairs. His winding staircase. Jesus Christ. I hate that you just said winding staircase because that's what it is.
Guys, I couldn't afford heat. Or my parents couldn't afford heat in my house when I was growing up. So that's why I scream at my son so much.
My first apartment, we didn't have heat in the winter because our heater broke. So our landlord gave us a space heater. But it was like one of the little ones on wheels. And me and my roommate, we both usually work night shifts. But occasionally I'd get thrown to closing, like second shift.
So I'd get home and he'd have the heater in middle of Vermont winter in his bedroom with like the door shut and just the cord coming from the hallway. Cause we had a rule where it had to be plugged in, in the living room to heat our house. So I'd come in and the house would be like 34 degrees. I'd be like banging on his door. We'd move the fucking heater to the living room again, like pointed at both of our doors next to each other. That would open dude. We had our back kitchen door froze over like an inch of ice and
because like we had we were both you know 20 19 years old 20 years old or whatever and to fill our propane tank which was our heat it was gonna cost like fucking 900 and i made like 150 bucks a week it's the heater's broken he's like oh it's the second time you just fill the tank we're like
We can't afford that. No! We can't afford that. So we had a space heater. Oh, man. God, being poor is so awesome. Yeah. Fuck your friend in his rich game. Fuck you, Casey. I still find comfort in putting a cover over my head and just using my own breath as body form. I know. Because that's what I did for my entire childhood. That's what I did. Dude, I had one friend, Seth, who...
Had like the Dreamcast when it first came out. Do you guys remember the old school big screen TVs that were like 800 pounds? Yeah. And they weighed 800. They were like four feet thick because they were projectors. The Trinitrons. Trinitrons. My buddy, he had one of those and we used to play, God, NFL, the 2K series games because it couldn't be Madden. It had to be the 2K series because it was a Dreamcast. Yep. And we would just play that forever. Forever.
Dear God, back when I liked sports games. God, that was when, like, because Nintendo 64 was the first console that had four controller hookups. Dreamcast followed suit with that. Yep. PlayStation. Yeah, and PlayStation was last on that list. Xbox was... I mean, Xbox was late as fuck to the game. It wasn't like... But PlayStation 2 only had two ports. No, it didn't. The PlayStation 2, like, thin only had two, I believe, but PlayStation...
Did it? It only had two, I do believe. Two memory card ports. Why would it have two memory card ports and four control ports? I don't remember. I thought it had four. Guys, in the comments section, just say Eli's right, and then we'll go about our business. Eli's also a fucking bitch. Nintendo 6, because the Dreamcast had four. I remember that because the Dreamcast also had its memory cards in the controllers. And you got to play it because they were like...
Not Pokemon, but like video shit. Yeah, what was the game back in the day? Your egg... Tamagotchi? It was like Tamagotchi because you got to play... Shit, Tamagotchis. Dude, I literally... So do you guys... Oh, you put that right there. Do you guys remember the Digimon fucking little fucking thing where you'd fight your friend, they'd kill your pet, and you'd just be like... Yeah, man. There goes eight weeks of every of my life. It would die, die. And you'd have to reset it. We should explain that. So for those of you that don't know...
when we didn't have cell phones back then. We had Digimon and Tamagotchis. Yeah, and it was like a keychain little thing. It was the size of an egg, basically. And you had a pet on there and you had to keep it alive.
And you could fight other things. When Digimon came out, you could fight it against your other friends' keychains, basically. You'd touch them together with little metal connectors and you'd connect them and fight your friends. You'd just be like mashing your fucking one button on the damn thing. It wasn't even graphics. It was like a calculator. I don't know what you would call that. Fucking your Texas instrument team.
Yeah, yeah. It was like black and white. It wasn't even... There was no color to it. It was like black and white. Yeah. Little digital Texas instrument shit. And you would touch these little things to each other and you would fight each other with them. Yeah, those were the coolest things. I actually... The reason I thought about it was I was like GameStop the other day looking for Pokemon cards. How much... Stop it. Stop it. How much Pokemons do you have? Yes. Yes. Okay. Okay.
And when I was there, right next to the Pokemon section, they had a Digimon section, which back in the day, Digimon was holy fuck cool. Yeah. And they had these, like, the Tamagotchis again. They're bringing them back. And I almost bought one. I was like, holy shit. We got to invest in Tamagotchis now, okay? This might be the next thing.
This might be it. It could be the Dogecoin. It could be the Dogecoin of our era. But, like, dude, Digimon was, like, the coolest shit. It was, like, the cooler Pokemon back in the day. Dude, those games didn't exist back in the day where you got to battle your buddy with, like, Pokemon. You could do it if you had that link cable. Which no one had the fucking link cable at all. I had the link cable. I was the kid with the link cable. So, like, everybody was always like...
Kyle! You wanna fucking throw down, bro? Can you trade? I need to evolve my Machop into a Machamp or my Machoke into a Machamp real quick. Bro, I got a Pikachu. You know how this goes down? That's the rape Pokemon. Exactly. Stop it. Four arms of destruction. I will... Stop it. Pikachu can't move. His little arms are up here. His little legs are down here. Machamp gets to have his way. Bam, bam, bam, bam.
Machamp. Machamp. Machamp. Machamp. What was that episode called? What do we call that? Ranch Water Senpai. Yeah. The worst name for an episode for that. That was my favorite episode name. Hands down.
Dude, Digimon... Did you guys ever get to play Digimon World? Or one or two? It was PlayStation games. And there's another in a similar vein of that. There was the Monster Rancher games. I was just about to say, I played Monster because my buddy Casey. Fuck you, Casey! You have balls, bitch! Yeah, Casey got balls! You got balls, weirdo! Two...
So on the like Monster Rancher and Digimon World, these were like the first games where you would like raise something in like have a. Yeah. And you have to do like adventures with them. That wasn't, you know, Pokemon on a Game Boy.
And the amount of time that I spent on Digimon World was disgusting. Because if anyone doesn't know anything about Digimon, you start with this little fucking egg. And that egg hatches into a Digimon. And then it's just this weird little blob of a shit ball. No features. It's not cool. And you had stats, strength, whatever. And you had to...
train it you had to raise it you had to feed it certain things and the better you raised it the better you fed it and raising its status it would digivolve into different fucking things and it would be like a points-based system you know rng stuff and almost every time you would try to get one of these cool there are so many cool fucking digimon and you'd always get like poopmon
The shit one. It was always the shit one. The shit monster. It was exactly like... One number was off. It was exactly like those fucking... The poop emoji. The poop... Yeah, the poop emoji. But what was the... We just discussed it. The little key chains. It was Tamagotchi. Tamagotchi. That's what they were. That's where they were coming from. Because the original Digimon...
Digi Vice was a Tamagotchi looking motherfucker. You always get the shit one. It was just a turd. And you were like, I raised this thing right. I woke up. You raised it right and I turned it to shit. Middle of the night to feed this thing.
Hence my son, John. You did everything you could. You gave him a castle. And he shit. He shits all over. You said Monster Rancher earlier. Do you remember when it was on PlayStation, you put random CDs? That's why I was thinking about it. Yeah. Dude, that was so innovative.
Yeah, exactly. They don't do that anymore because with Monster Rancher, those of you who don't know, it was like what Batty was saying. It was like a Pokemon-type deal. And then you would get your monsters by putting random CDs into your PlayStation when it asked you to, and you would remove them, and then it would give you a monster. So you could put DVDs in there. DVDs, man. Random music CDs. And they're predetermined.
from that CD. Which is so weird because I remember exactly Spawn, the comic book series, they turn into a movie. I put that in there and I got a super powerful monster on Monster Rancher out of that. And so you would go to CheatCC.com to find the good dick.
Yeah, to find the good discs. It would be like this movie gives you this monster, this movie gives you this monster. And it was like that was so crazy. And I don't know. Dude, I remember. So that came from a TV show initially, Monster Rancher. And it was all like battling slimes and shit. But like the whole thing with Monster Rancher was like all the monsters in the show came from them finding these stone discs and tablets in the wild and shit and trying to find them.
That's what it... Oh, no. And that's why it became... When the PlayStation game came out, they're like, you pop your fucking PlayStation, pull the Monster Rancher disc out, slap in Nickelback's photograph, close that bitch, and bam, you got a bat slime monster that would fuck everything up. Yep. Like... Thank you, Nickelback. Thank you, Nickelback. Like, dude...
That, that, think about that. You know, 1999, 2001, 2000, whatever it fucking was. You were putting in different disks, hundreds of disks because you needed the best monsters. This was a slow, we cannot stress how slow this process, it's not an SSD loading up something right now. You're putting in that disk and it's like, you're first, create new monster, now loading.
We hold. We hold. Waiting. 30 seconds to a minute. You put in. It's like insert disc. Open up PlayStation. Then you have to read the disc. Boom. Put it in. Close it. Loading disc. And then it's like boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
pops up and you're like fuck yes i've because you go through so many shit creatures and that was the thing like it wouldn't tell you the monster until you put your your monster rancher game back in it would say like monster loaded like it'd be spinning like with glitter and bullshit then you put your monster rancher disc back in then it would show the disc on the screen and it would spin a bunch and then and the motherfucker would show up and you'd be like
I got a shitty slime. It's a blue slime. It was like stealing my sister's CDs. Yup, dude. I was like, give me our CDs. You had the Spice Girls in that bitch? Exactly. I don't care, man. Absolutely. That was the coolest shit in the world. So you'd be going through your brand new DVD collection. You'd go to Showtime Video Blockbuster to rent a movie. Buddy, you weren't renting a movie. You were renting a monster. Exactly. That's what it was.
That was so cool. Like, mom, did you rent a movie this Friday? She's like, yeah, why? I'm like, I need it. She's like, you can't watch this one. It's rated R. I'm like, don't care, mom. Mom, don't care. Need to see it. That game was hard as hell, too. Dude, it was super fucking hard. Because those creatures, a lot of those old games were. But that was like, you'd be like, god, this creature, this is a dragon. And it's dead.
Okay, well, fuck. Okay, write that one off. I had my paper list I would just write down. Me and Casey both had that. Every kid had their notebook with all their bullshit in it. Just checking it off. It's like, not strong creature. We need to see, now looking up, what would be the most powerful meta in that game? In Monster Rancher? Go back. That'd be funny. Yeah, buy all the DVDs. Run a PlayStation emulator. A speed run of Monster Rancher? Somebody's got it. Again.
I guarantee there's a speed run. This is the fastest way to conquer this game. This is the DVDs you need. Where did those games go? Okay, load up Spice Girls movie, okay? This is going to get you a blue-eyed dragon. Do you need to put on Bend It Like Beckham? This is the most scary shit ever. It's like Monkey Bones with Brendan Fraser. Dude, do you remember the GameCube discs? The mini-discs?
Yes. You could use those too. Could you? Yep. Oh yeah, because they still fit onto a regular thing. They were just tiny. How would it read that stuff? Because it's based off the data on the disc, which is this. It doesn't need to be a full size. The reader starts on the inside and moves out. Yeah, but like if I put in, let's say, if we put in a PlayStation 4 game, what's it going to do? Oh shit. You're right. That's what I'm saying. Let's say it explodes. We create an IED. Yeah.
Donuts dead. Okay, so we definitely need to get a PlayStation and put... I just want to play a PS4 game. Yeah, exactly. Things after that generation to see what monsters we get. I'm so down for this. I want to play Monster Rancher so bad. I was just talking about this the other day. I was like, where did those games go?
Where did the disc games go? Yeah, why didn't they go past that? So, Monster Rancher ended because Monster Hunter started fucking exploding. Which they did good. Monster Hunter. Did that do Monster Hunter, though? What up? But...
Digimon, there was like three Digimons. There was a third one that failed miserably. It was terribly done. It had full of bugs. Back in the day when games had bugs, they were just game breaking and you couldn't do anything about it. There was no updates or patches to your games. No one has internet, so you couldn't. Final Fantasy VII W items, if I can go in and back out, go in and back out. Unlimited items for anything you wanted. You max out your stuff.
Love those old games exploits of used to use the shit now. They just patch them out Okay, okay roll back your game saved yet at 2016 so that packs that bugs PlayStation is now from two thousand like where did those style like where did the the the Monster Rancher did you want like raising like Pokemon style games go cuz there's Pokemon obviously but
It's just cool to have something physical to do. I think that's why Skylanders did so good. Skylanders and also Pokemon Go. Do you remember the week Pokemon Go launched? Yeah, I was a police officer. So instead of fighting...
I specifically remember this because I worked night shift as a cop and it came out and we were all like, because we didn't have anything to do on night shift anyways. And you have to patrol. So as a cop, we were just driving around the city catching Pokemon for like a month.
And, you know, when crimes happen, we would go there. But I also specifically remember we would eat at this one diner every night, and I was playing Pokemon Go at the diner, and this guy comes by, and he's like, you fucking playing Pokemons and not catching murderers? And, yeah, so that was really weird.
And I asked him, I was like, where's the murderers at? And he couldn't tell me. So I kept playing Pokemon. Damn right, man. Donut has three gems in the hood. Yeah. Oh my God, dude. So that's the weird... Okay, so that's funny that you mentioned that. You're just doing gym battles in the hood. Spartanburg, South Carolina, there's like three major...
rich colleges there, like very affluent colleges. And so we would roll up into the worst parts of Spartanburg where like I found squirt, like the worst parts of Spartanburg. And there'd be some super fucking affluent Asian kid wandering around looking at his phone, not paying attention to everything. And we would have to roll up and be like,
you're going to get fucking murdered out here, bro. Get in my cop car. I'm going to drive you back to where your dorms are. Because he was fucking looking for shit, trying to hit the jeans in the ghetto and shit. It was weird. All the best Pokemon were in the ghetto. And so, no, when Pokemon Go first released for the first, like, at least month, we would have to roll around the ghetto when there were, like, kids, like, college kids playing.
for Pokemon and pick them up and take them back to their dorms because we had to tell them you cannot be here. Spartanburg's not a safe place. Hey, guys, we got a Mewtwo in Spartansburg. We got to go patrol right now. This Mewtwo is now like everyone's right there. And that's so funny. That's how we found these college kids because we're like, there's probably good Pokemon in this area. And we'd roll up on some fucking kid whose dad's an attorney. And he's wondering around.
You're like, shit. Exactly. He's like wandering around the same spot. We found a dude murdered last week. And we'd have to be like, get in my car. I'm taking you back to your dorm.
And it's because of Pokemon Go. Dude. There's a bunch of kids almost got murdered. No, no, no. There's a Mewtwo on this. This fantastic child's artwork on the ground. That's a chalk outline of the human body. Exactly. On that same note, the two weeks, the first two weeks of Pokemon Go's launch, world peace. Those were the greatest two weeks I can think of in the last five years. Dude, I mean, LA was fantastic.
If you wanted to see insanity, so bars... I went to Boston during it. It was insane. The bars would have Pokemon, like, hey, there's Pokemon here. They would actually put their logo... What was it to make drama? It was the stops. Yes, to make Pokemon generate that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So bars and all that, restaurants, they would do that purposefully with Pokemon Go to drive traffic to their bar. It was insane, man. Yeah, LA, dude. Dude, those augmented reality IRL games, that was like the craziest shit. Like going to Boston and walking around the Quadrant in the middle of downtown Boston, following the crowds because we were chasing a Blastoise.
Like, there's just hundreds of people walking in a circle around this fucking greenery, hitting the stops, picking up Pokeballs and berries and all that shit. And being like, there's a Blastoise over at the other side, half mile away. And it'd just be a mob rushing. It was, I can't think of another situation like that.
She was wild. Like, what the fuck? Oh, I miss it. Yeah. I don't miss it. I don't. It was fun. It was a thing. I just wish it was a little bit different. As you're saying that, augmented reality is a different...
But once we get video games going in that direction... That's why I always say the next MMO I play will be a VR MMO. I think that will be the game. Look at this man. He's like, you know something? If we have Ready Player One in real life... Dude, I don't need that in my life. I will look like Batty in a year. What? Once VR comes out, I'm going to be the biggest piece of shit. I have so much weight! I know. That's why I'll look like you because I'm still...
I'll be skinny fat. Short? Yeah, what's short? No, I'll be short. You're not going to grow any taller, bud. I'll be skinny fat. Yeah, and short. Bud, what pops in my head about that? Like...
VR MMO, like we've all spent, you've played an MMO for at least 12 hours, right? So if you put the VR thing on your face, there's going to be new medical conditions coming out. Because you're putting a fucking VR thing on your face for more than 12 hours. So there's going to be like new medical conditions coming out.
Can't wait. I'm so excited for it. Do you remember the anime endgame .hack? .hack sign, .hack all that shit. Do you remember the anime? It was just on the ramen place we went. Sword Art Online. I would do that. The worst part is they'd be like, man, Eli, this game has been like you log in, you can't get out because you'll die. I'd be like, fuck, man.
Power off. It's like, wait, I'm going to play games or die? Win-win. Well, you're behind the meta a little bit. I don't care. I'm going to just play it safe. We're going to see how this one goes. Because it's like, it's a fucking world that you are in. And you guys, if you played like the new VR that's coming out, it is fucking mind-blowing on video games. I said, I remember when the Vive just came out.
Have you guys done VR yet? Yeah. Very little. I'm afraid. How to buy a pro. Oh, I don't. I need to try it. I need to see if I'm having a stroke. I won't buy it because I haven't ever used any kind of real gun. Like real. Cause my, my balance, my equilibrium, I'm afraid to spend a bunch of money on a VR setup and not be able to use it. I didn't know you had one. I'm going to try it. No, it's broke.
I'm going to order something. I'll get a new one so we can try it. I don't want a VR so bad, but I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to use it. I'll get one so you can try it. It's such, I will always say the best reference to like, it's like almost coming to God moment is when you try that VR for the first time, especially a good one. It is so different because you're like, oh, it's going to be VR, especially coming from our age where you're like, oh, we got the virtual boy.
My eyes hurt and I have a headache now. This is fantastic. It's all red. Yeah. But going into that next world of VR and like it being implemented, you're like, you're like looking around and you're like, I am part of this world and you're interacting, you're doing everything. And when you take it off, you're like, Holy shit. Oh my God. Cause it is, you are in that world. Now you are part of it. You're interacting with it. Fucking crazy. And they do those small rooms where,
And it's just a fucking square. You're going back and forth, but it feels like this huge area. And you're like, oh my God, I just want to play Skyrim on VR. So, oh, it's so fun because you can just stab, stab, stab, stab, stab really quick. I had one of my veteran buddies come over when I first got my vibe. It was a vibe pro that I got. I fucked it up already. I broke it. Someone hit it with something. But one of my veteran buddies came over and Jesus Christ squirt.
And you can do Google Maps. And he was going through where he had, like, firefights and, like, did combat and
And was like, here's where I killed a guy. Here's where someone killed my friend. Like, here and here. Because, like, Google Maps is so, like, real. And you can go through the streets of, like, Cabal and, like, all these crazy places. Yeah. And you just live. VR is awesome. It's so bad. I've been afraid to spend the money on it. Dude, scary games? Oh, they're nutty. Oh, John had this fucking... Before I broke it. That's how he broke it. Because...
We hit one of the stands. I was playing one of the zombie games. It was like, what's that? God damn it. What's that TV show? Walking Dead. There's a Walking Dead game and I was playing it and a zombie came out of nowhere and I went to hit it and I threw the controller and it broke the whole fucking thing. And that's why I don't have VR anymore.
They're like, cause you are there in that world when that, and it's in your, it's like super loud in your ears and you're looking at it. I'm going to buy a VR for my birthday. I'm going to buy you a VR for your birthday. Shut up. Now the, the, I will say, I will say the only time I missed two days of work was because I got my equilibrium got thrown off from VR. So VR just came out.
And what I didn't know, again, this is to all the people that haven't done VR, when you have a controller, so I had a control system with the VR. You're supposed to move forward and then that's it. And you turn like this. Move forward with the controller, turn with your head and your chair. So the one I had was you'd rotate with your chair, you'd move around like that.
If you turned with your head and your controller, what your brain is now doing is it gets fucking thrown off. That's why my brain's broken. Yeah, it was like, why are you turning so much? It's like, I don't know what's going on. Yep. Scary fucking game. I remember these statues. When you weren't looking at the statues, they'd be statues. If you turned, they would get closer any time you turned back. Doctor Who shit. Yeah, absolutely fucking terrifying in a VR world.
I was playing that. I got scared. I fucking took it off finally. I was like, whew. I was like, man, I feel fucking weird. What the? I feel really sick actually. Dude, vertigo and motion sickness from that, that's like a big thing. And considering my equilibrium doesn't work anymore, it's just fucked. That's my whole issue. If I'm walking and moving in a direction, but I'm looking in a different direction than I'm moving, and my head just immediately is like, guess we're just going to fall over now.
This is how we kill daddy. We get him VR. His body just died. Give me like a Star Wars fighter jet because I know there's a new VR Star Wars like Starfighter or some shit out. Put me in that shit for a minute.
eyes crossed just having a good time he died a hero on the battle of indoor that's the only thing i haven't jumped into like i'll i'll do whatever the fuck else when it comes to any kind of gaming i'm all about diving in headfirst and vrs i'm just like i don't want to build a whole vrpc and do all this crazy shit and then and then have to return it
Because I get sick from it. I mean, I don't give a fuck. I'm just going to do it. I'm going to buy one for my birthday. I don't give a fuck. Dude, that side room up here, we should make that a VR area and run it for my gaming PC. Absolutely. We'll have a VR set up. Yeah.
You can put a corner camera. So you can watch it all. Oh, we can all come in and do streams doing VR in there. Oh, that would be fun. Blade and Sorcery. Have you played Blade and Sorcery yet? That's the one I watched, dude. It looks so good. You're fighting gladiator fights. Oh, yes. And you can pick your weapon. And John is brutal at it, my 11-year-old. You're like hacking limbs off and shit, dude. You can grab another person and beat another person to death with them.
It's so realistic. It's gladiator fighting, and you can pick weapons and just kill people with other people, too. It feels so natural, I bet, because I know a few of the games I played. It's just so natural to grab shit out of the air or on the table, and you're like, and you're like, this is literally part of me right now. PT for...
Silent Hill, the new one that stopped and now they're redoing. Yeah. That one is a VR game now. PT is a VR game. And it is absolutely fucking terrifying from watching my fans play it. And I was like, okay, this is the one I want to play on VR. We should make Batty. Have you played PT? Period. No. Oh, this will be the best stream ever. Done. Do you like scary stuff? It doesn't bother me, but I'll do it.
It doesn't until you play it in VR. Done. Sure. 100%. One of the few games you're like, scary games don't... What the fuck am I doing right now? Why am I in this build? Because it consumes you. You're like, I'm in this world now. See, I just want to get...
I want an MMO in VR. Like, I'm afraid to have that happen, but at the same time, I want it. I won't leave. That's it, dude. Like, could you imagine, could you imagine, like, the WoW grind, Guild Wars, Star Wars, whatever your genre is in VR? Dude, that's what, I fucking love that anime. Sword Art or .hack? Sword Art. That's why, dude.
What if, like, your skills... Because your skills in-game would come down to your skills in real life. So would people start doing MMA more? Like, would people start practicing swords more? I'd just, like, jack shoulders and shit from swinging swords and, like... Yeah, like, would people who have never worked out before but they're, like, super into video games start going to gyms because they want to be able to fuck people up in their game? Fighting in real life? Like, that is the things where it's, like, that's why I love sword art because it's...
It is that. And now you're exploring an entire world. You are checking out from this world and you're going into a world that you get to be whatever the fuck you want. Explore whatever you want. And it is, I mean, you've done VR. It is pretty like when you're there, it is. Yeah. It is impressive that you are in that world. Like,
When you take it off, I didn't do the Vibe Pro, but when you take that off, you're like, oh, I'm back to, like, I always felt. Yeah, you walk weird. Yeah. Like when you run on a treadmill and then you get off the treadmill. It's like the same feeling, but it's your reality. Maybe I shouldn't play VR. I have an addictive personality. You get off of it and you're looking around and you're just like, okay, shit. What the fuck happened? Batty, like, they do these, my favorite are the puzzle rooms and then this is it.
And you're going like, you're like solving this puzzle. And then it's like you crawl and you do all this stuff. You like, I got to crawl and go through this thing. And then you go here. You're like, okay, now I'm in this big room right here. And you walk around and you're like, okay, I figured out this puzzle. And you go here, here, here, here, here. You're walking in a fucking square. But in your world, you're going through this expanse. But your friends watching, you're like, this idiot is just going. D&D. That would be really cool.
Oh my god. You know how long our campaigns would go? I mean, dude, I used to... Hell yeah, man. I'd be sitting at a table like this with fucking six to eight friends and we'd be doing four hours a session and be like, you sure you guys don't want to do another four real quick? Like eight hours. I remember one day we all took work off. Because we all worked at the same place. We all just took a day off from work. We played D&D for like 13 hours.
That's rad. Just tabletop. We'd all break for lunch for like an hour. Then we'd get back into it. Like role playing characters. Like it fucking dies. But in VR. Oh, like that's what I want, man. Fuck. Cause you'd be the DM and you would be watching all this unfold and saying it. We're walking through the fucking scenario. And you're like, I, I, I, I, my brain. Everyone would just be like, okay, well this is life. Now this is what we want to do. We're going to stick with this. I'm now a wizard. Oh my God.
You can't take it off. Take it off. You're not a wizard. You put it back on. You're a wizard. You gotta stay there. I'd just be a goddamn wizard, bro. I'm just gonna shit on myself forever and be a wizard. I'm Baffro. Baffro! I'm Dundrack! Man, dude, that's fucking... I'm gonna buy VR. I'm just gonna do it. VR's gonna get insane. It's like the movies we've watched the past 10 years where you got people in VR...
Who are like junkies to it. What is that? Ready Player One. Yeah, Ready Player One. There's also the one where Tom Cruise, where you can predict people killing themselves. Minority Report? Yeah, Minority Report. Holy shit. There were like virtual reality junkies in that too. That's what happened. Like hands down, I would be fully immersed in that world. I mean, that's the next big game. Because that's why I love Ready Player One. If you haven't read the book...
Very good. Very good. I read the book. I haven't even seen the movie. Don't watch the movie. Read the book. Watch the movie. It's still visually amazing. Honestly. It's a great movie. But it does not come back. But at the same time, the book was from what? The 80s, right? It was in the 80s? No. It came out recent. Ready Player One? Yeah. That's a new. Ready Player One's not that new. It came out in 2011, I think. No way. Can we talk about that?
Can we just say the cartels are fucking up by investing in substances and not investing in virtual reality? Because that's going to be the substance abuse. Yeah, that's going to be the addictive thing of the future. It's going to be virtual reality where you lay down, like on Minority Report, you lay down your thing and your reality is augmented.
And that's what you're going to fucking steal and kill people and kidnap. And that's where you're going to get money for. That's going to be, it's going to be virtual reality. It's not going to be substances. I thought it was way older. I am. I am. Betty always questions. And I'm like, I think 2011, bam, 2011 is when that book came out. I will always question you. Somebody has to keep you in check. Even if I'm wrong, got to do it. That like that book,
That book just came out and I need to read it. Ready Player Two just came out, didn't it? Yeah. If you've never read the book... Last year or two years ago? So it has nothing but 80s and early 90s references, which is the best fucking part. Don't know. 300 pages, you will read that in a single night. It is so fun. Logan, Jared, I got all the BRCC boys to read it. I was like, read it. And they were like, bro, I don't even...
come down the next day they'd be like man that was a good book I was like you wrote the entire thing and they're like couldn't put it down I was like exactly because it is like you have Microsoft you have all these things and then it is the idea of it's like 2050 or 2060 America's like not the best but this reality system is where because again think about it you
You have school being taught there because why would you need real school if you have a VR simulator school? Why would you go anywhere? Why? What's the point? Yeah. So they would do that. You're saving emissions. That's probably a big thing too. Exactly. But the biggest thing is the competition. So the owner created this. This is the richest man in the world because it's worth like fucking a trillion dollars. Jeff Bezos, basically. Even. On crack. Yeah.
Because the entire world... Elon and Jeff made this. Because the entire world uses this, but you have a system that everyone uses for school to work, to buy stuff in games, for video games. You have different video games in the world, so it's like MMOs inside of this. So you have everything you want. Steam is the host of everything.
And you get to just plug in and you're like, I want to do VR stuff today. I want to do first person shooters. That's all through this one system. And you're there. You live that world. And then the owner dies and he's like, Hey, I'm giving away everything. Whoever can find the final gate key. Here's my clue. So there's three keys.
which are three gates, as long as you follow those and there's a scoreboard, if you get to the last one first and you are in first place on the score, you now own my... Inherit it. You inherit... The company. The world. The entire company, which is like $300 or $400 billion. So Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and VR. Yes. And that's the thing. And then after it's like, what catches you, it's like the first chapter just shows it's like,
It's like, oh, he announces this when he dies. His VR goes through everyone's VR system. And then it is a process of just no one can find it. Like six years, no one's found even the first. He gives a clue. No one's found anything. And that's how it starts. And you're like...
Fuck. Okay. I'm down. This is a... Well, I know what I'm watching tonight. It's so good. The book. No, no, no, no. It's fine. The movie... A lot of people... All right. It's like comparing the Lord of the Rings trilogy to the Lord of the Rings movies. There's so much that's missing. Shut the fuck up. I love the movie. It was a good time. I promise I'll read it if I watch it. Absolutely. The book is so... I'd almost say just read it first because it's not big. It's like 200 pages max. And on that note...
Hi-yah! We're gonna... We're gonna force this to be an end. We're gonna force on that fucking cliffhanger. Go watch Ready Player One. Go read the book. Oh, it's so good.
