welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt it's a bit ay so I don't really understand it Luke is that a little sashwat penis Dan I accidentally got soap in my urethra and occasionally Terry smallo maybe you wake up in the middle of the night with a little sashwat pis inside of you multiple nerdgasm your guide to all things nerdy so welcome to M nasm this will be our last episode what will it and next one we'll be talking about Fallout for the next probably 6 months all right it's pretty much what happened last time
you guys are going to get a jump on me too because I've heard that the the shipment is delayed by a day here oh really yeah so I have to wait another day which sucks cuz I'm actually off work tomorrow ah so I'm potentially picking my copy up right as if we finish this I'll probably drive to EB and go to the launch and get it m um and then not be able to play it you know because I'm too busy but I'll have it yeah yeah not playing it is not the point mine's G I'm just going to wait till midnight and then I'm going to start installing it cuz I just got to buy digitally oh wait you could preload it now yes but I'm part of the Xbox Rewards program oh with that you you get a rebate on games you on anything you spend but it doesn't count for games
that are pre-ordered really it's really stupid it's in the fine print so I need to wait till 12:01 go online buy it then and the rebate um I'm about it goes up to 10% I'm at 8% at the moment yeah right that's not bad so what $10 every game so every 10th game you get is free yeah that's pretty good yeah that's pretty good where you start off joining it you'll get like a cuz you're gold and you start off at the lower level it's 2% right and then the more you spend the higher it goes and you've spent a fortune I've spent a hell of a lot of money right so what I mean if we're honest then I'm probably never going to get to 10% no no uh 10% is uh thousands
and it's within a year how much a week do you spend on video games Luke um depends uh really right though roughly it's probably about it's at least $100 a week oh at least maybe up to 200 depending on the week that is a lot it's less than I thought it's one AAA game or one major release game and then right little other games that come out that of 10 $20 oh just talking about games there's a game that came out this week that I'm very pissed off about about the price of what's that there's a new Snoopy game right yeah okay it's is it called good grief I can't remember what it's called but it's a little 2D Sid scroller it looks horrible they're asking $60 for it wow wow there is a Peanuts movie coming out it's a TI for that I believe yeah I
guess that's why they've got the audacity to choose charge 60 bucks for it is it a live action Peanuts movie no no [ __ ] God no no unless it stars Michael Sarah as Charlie Brown in which case I could kind see that his head's not big enough yeah that's true well speaking of the Xbox um we have bought a second Xbox welcome Club well it's a little different it's not just one person's Xbox we have one each now and I wanted to update because we've talked about this before uh and I wasn't sure if it would work uh and I've confirmed that it does work and it's a bit fiddly you uh if we buy all the games on my account we can both play them and at the same time and everything and it works but what I have to do is I have to set Jenna's Xbox as my home Xbox
so all my licenses live on her Xbox and anybody who uses that can play it can play them yes like anyone who uses that Xbox can play my games and then when I play on my Xbox I'm logged in so I can play my games mhm and so basically uh we can buy um you know for example I bought the Gears of War remake um and we could both play it we play co-op at the same time on different Xboxes and it works great so hopefully that's not a flaw that they're going to try and fix cuz we really like it and would like it to stay working that way well I guess you just better hope that they don't listen to the podcast I yeah I really I don't think they're going to fix it this is
something that's been around for since the Xbox one came out yeah this has been a functionality so I think this is sort of their trade-off cuz remember they were going to have that we could share games yeah I know well they do they do kind of detail the functionality on their website so I mean it's not I'm not cheating too too badly you know what I mean it's like and also I could get the games for like about the same price as I'm going to pay for them this way anyway so yeah whatever going buy them online and buy one copy for what $100 whereas if you're going to buy two copies you'd go to JB and pick them up for $6 each right so I'm saving $20 yeah so but it yeah it works really well cuz you know with Battlefront coming out obviously we're going to want to play
with everybody so we figured it's time yep awesome can't wait can you play co-op on Battlefront on the one machine yes I well we played the beta uh split screen uh so I I I I guess you can yeah yeah if they had it in the beta it's definitely going to be the full retail version yeah I can't remember if we played online that way or have we just played the you know the kind of horde mode yeah um map they had so so yeah I mean I think you can see how see how you go I mean you're going to buy it anyway aren't you so just well yeah I'm going to buy it but I only have one Xbox no no no that's what I mean but I mean like if I say yes and then you can't you're not going to hate me because you were going
to buy it anyway I'm not buy it because uh yeah because of that yeah correct yeah I'm actually looking forward to I actually get to play it on this Thursday I can start playing it what do you mean um it comes out next Thursday on the 19th of November so that explains nothing yeah in fact that explains less Star Wars comes out on the 19th of November I'm going to be able to play it from the 12th of November because I'm part of the EA I what it's called the you got the membership thing the membership thing it cost me 40 bucks a year and I get games all a week early at a 10% discount huh also get a 10-hour trial with all their games interesting so yeah if you sign up for it you could play I'm
actually playing NE the speed at the moment which I haven't paid for I've got the full game I'm getting achievements M and I'm just playing a 10-hour trial you've beat the system you don't even need to pay for games anymore cuz all you care about is the achievements really isn't it I can finish a game in 10 hours I bet you could yeah that's it's only going to convince him to make the games longer yeah this game's got to be longer than 10 hours at least otherwise Luke's not going to buy it oh they they've got to change this thing cuz like 10 hours it's it's a long time for some of the games that they're putting out like um FIFA and NHL I've got them all I'm never going to play any of those games for 10 hours
yeah but they've got a strategy I just don't know what it is is your internet where you are good enough for digital games Dan to download them for downloading yeah don't you have like some of the best internet in the world yeah it's not bad better than the [ __ ] you got except that you guys have got NBN now my my NBN I swear the I don't know whether they do this on purpose when the NBN came in here like literally into my apartment it was amazing and then I swear to God it's just slowly getting worse and worse over time and I don't know if they're doing it on purpose so that at first i' be like wow it's amazing and they hoping I wouldn't notice but like it is not as fast as it was originally I'm pretty sure it's just more people signing up yeah you're
probably right but it's still disappointing cuz like the day that they put it on I was like oh my God this is amazing and then now sometimes I'm like for [ __ ] sake like why can't I load Facebook I think my Wi-Fi might have more to do with it in some cases I forget Wi-Fi the devil well should we move on to some news yeah any devil news I don't know if we do we do have some Vladimir lenon news do we have a jingle for Vladimir lenon news uh almost certainly not however can it sound like a John lenon song all right imagine communism it's easy if you
try imagine all the people share bring all that money and food and everything Lon well may you rest in peace which [Laughter] one do do you guys ever ever have this situation where you encounter somebody that really idolizes somebody and you're just not sure why but there a smart enough person that you think have I just completely misunderstood this person like I can two two reasons for this number one on the System of a Down album I think it's toxicity there's a little thing that's dedicated to Charles Manson and I was like dedicated to Charles Manson like is
that a thing of like really intelligent people like System of a Down idolizing Charles Manson like that's weird right yeah yeah I mean yeah yeah I mean I could I could guess where maybe that comes from but I I don't know for sure I would say maybe they think that he was kind of um done a bit wrong and he's not as because he's crazy basically sure and so maybe they put more on him than he deserved to have put on him uhhuh uhhuh uhhuh uhhuh that's was on to something in terms of you know his hatred for the celebrity culture and things like that but I think right right just generally speaking idolizing him is probably not you know well it's the same way that so many people idolize Ned Kelly yeah well that's true too and um sheay gavara yeah
yeah and Jesus Christ but the other one I was in a friend's car and he had a picture of chairman ma right maong hanging from his rearview mirror and I was like what the [ __ ] man like did you ask I I said is that chairman Ma and he's like absolutely and I just didn't want to get into it well spotted yeah oh you like M yeah too obviously yeah this particular um I guess idolization of a uh of somebody has been improved in my opinion yeah from a mass murderer to some kind of just Galactic serial killer I guess you'd say so this is uh this is a statue
of Vladimir lenen mhm and uh they've converted it into Darth Vader yeah uh and it's they've done a pretty good job so this is in Ukraine right and they're actually in the process of tearing down a lot of their old communist era statues uh but one of these uh artists from the region has said [ __ ] that let's not uh not tear them down let's just make them better and he saves a lot of money improve oh I also like this they're also turning into a Wi-Fi hotspot that's great even though I mean we did talk about that statue of Nicola Tesla that was turned into a wireless Hotpot that's kind of the perfect usage yeah exactly right except that you have to stand within about 5 m of it and that
kind of goes against everything Tesla was trying to organize you know what I mean so there's a little bit of irony you can kind of turn anything into a wireless hot spot really it doesn't have to be a statue of somebody thing where a few years ago they were trying to get homeless people to be wireless hotspots I hope that's true that is great I got to see if I could find I think there was they could just use it to track them I guess it's probably a ploy why would they need homeless people to be Wi-Fi hotspots luk just put it on the ground don't ask questions all right just go with it just put it in a bin yeah oh my God yep it was a couple of years ago why homeless people in Austin Texas um I need to know why what is the difference between putting it
making a homeless person carry a Wi-Fi router around or just putting it somewhere you say carry maybe it's like implant yeah but still what is the benefit of that versus what it's stationary I mean if they W off you're [ __ ] exactly it was basically they G the homeless people to be Wi-Fi devices and they were able to let people connect to it in exchange for donations you ask them for the password yes I love the way Luke words it as well unless that's from the article Luke says they going to ask homeless people to be wireless hot spots yeah come on buddy that's just
me yeah for your own good you can charge people yeah sounds dangerous if you ask me yeah it's dangerous because they just be using it to check their own Facebook you know what I mean ex who knows what that's going to do to their homeless bodies oh here's something I think we need to discuss yeah M how is Candy Crush more than Star Wars you know what it's funny that's the exact analogy that I made when I first heard this cuz Star Wars was sold to Disney for what three four billion four or yeah $4 billion which I thought was wow that's a lot of money they're going to make that back as well yeah but Activision has bought Candy Crush which I didn't even know people still played oh yeah for almost $1 billion well they bought King I guess which is the company that makes it and I
mean I mean that that's their biggest uh earner but they make quite a lot of mobile games and I think um like they make a [ __ ] ton of money right from people who play these games like they've got Candy Crush Saga they've got Candy Crush Soda Saga uh and then like billi plus out of this though Farm Heroes they just basically they just [ __ ] out little mobile heroes that sounds like the shittest game ever they just they just like you know produce these turd games that people pay like I don't know so I guess it's all microtransactions right so the game is free but if you want to progress in it you can either be patient or you can spend a bit of money and get an advantage of buy like unlock the next
level or the next area or whatever and I don't know people go a lot of money it's just like just enough that you go just a little sneaky yeah but they spend they spend aot lot of money researching this stuff on like how to make it like the the right amount of addictive yep yeah so and current they have currently they have 474 million monthly active users yeah so if everybody spends a dollar a month World of Warcraft has what 2 million like that's just crazy it's a lot of money but yeah I just got a big shock when I saw that's well even Minecraft Minecraft which is a huge game was only two two what 2.5 billion yeah but are people spending money on Minecraft anymore or did everyone already buy it well that's what I said when they brought it it was the best
time for them to sell cuz yeah everyone already owns it yeah that's that's right so I'm not sure Microsoft made the best decision I mean I'm sure they know what they're doing but well I do like the fact that on they'd have to have it cuz it's now Microsoft when people load it up on their PlayStations and jump up the Microsoft logo that's going to be something for him yeah I suppose does my I got Windows 10 here did this come with Minecraft instead of Sol Minecraft are you serious um well I I know I got it but um I don't know if you had to get it by a certain date or something it doesn't have Minecraft well I mean I already bought Minecraft so it doesn't matter but it's not what is Minecraft Windows 10 beta mhm right I also have
Soler oh good did I tell you guys about when I was at a dinner party with some friends and their 10-year-old kid was playing on his tablet and I looked over his shoulder and I said oh Minecraft and he looked at me like with this horrified and untrusting expression and said how do you know about [Laughter] Minecraft uh oh yeah you should have said I'm Notch that fat guy is an actor I so wish we had time to play Minecraft I know yeah you I really did like when we had that world for a little that was so good maybe we could play it on the expone instead just checking in yeah you just come back after a little while and just people have just built all this stuff and you just wander around somebody's
new thing and they just open up all their their boxes and just take their [ __ ] I can set up the server again no worries if you guys want to play it we tried to do that a second time and it didn't work yeah yeah I know I know well let's have a think about it um we talked about a company that's that's making money uh a company that's doing the opposite um at the moment is uh Warner Brothers and I guess Rock Steady um they are refunding everybody not everybody refunding people who want uh who purchased the PC version of Arkham Knight cuz they finally uh after the you know the debacle with all the bugs and everything when they released it they finally put it back up after they tried to have a go fixing it and apparently it's still [ __ ] so they are offering
uh refunds I want to know how that game was ever released so that's it there just won't be a PC version of this game well there is a PC version it's out there people can still buy it yeah but if if you buy it and then you don't enjoy playing a game that's buggy as all [ __ ] then they'll refund you which is but even if you buy it now knowing yep that there's this like it's buggy what it is some people are actually able to play it fine I've got a guy who I work with his computer is just just on the minimum requirements and he says he runs it fine yeah I'm sure it must it I mean there's no way that it could be that obviously broken and they're like no it looks pretty good to me no you know it was atrocious and even some of the testers came out and went we told these
guys months ago that this game is not ready mind then we're shipping it well apparently it's because apparently the Xbox version and the the PlayStation versions are both fine is that right y yeah so but then they had uh they outsourced um the port of the PC version to another company cuz I guess they thought that would be easy um it's a company of like 12 guys yeah and they just [ __ ] it they just didn't do a very good job for some reason I don't think I don't think they so much as [ __ ] it is I think they didn't have the resources right okay to do it oh fair enough cuz they had what that's a way it well yeah this would have they would have had hundreds of people making this game and then they've gone we'll just pull up the PC here dozen guys you
just make it work this is one of those games that I was really really excited about it and then I thought I got a lot of games to play so I'm not going to buy it when it comes out and I still haven't bought it and I actually kind of forgot about it until I saw this article the other day so it's a really good game you should get it yeah just don't get well no I'm not going to because i' I've like I said I just bought a new Xbox and it came with rise of the Tomb Raider and full at 4 so I'm good for the rest of the year I think oh yeah definitely wait you bought an Xbox that comes with Tomb Raider and Fallout 4 yeah it's like the best bundle Xbox ever but you clearly don't have those games in your position I have rise of the Tomb Raider
pre-installed and it will unlock in 2 hours wow and uh I pick up my copy of Fallout after after this like in 3 minutes um EB will open and I could go and get it but I have to wait till midnight so I don't know I might go I might not we'll see how I feel like tell you what that was a great deal $500 oh yeah I know yeah those their games you're going to get anyway so you basically got an Xbox One for $300 that's right yeah so listeners the the deal if you're looking for an Xbox the deal I got was rise with the Tomb Raider and Fallout 4 um the one tab Xbox one uh 500 bucks Yeah so basically if yeah like I like you said the games are 100 bucks each so if you do the maths it's kind of like paying 300 bucks for the console cuz I was going to buy them anyway the games yeah
pretty good deal very good deal yes it's just a shame that Fallout Falls not digital for you yeah well it's well Jen's not really a fan of it though is she no that's right it's single player anyway so yeah know but yeah but if you both you could still both play at the same time yeah true we'll see yeah I said she's not she's not really into it so that's fine um did you guys watch the warcraft trailer yeah I did um a lot of people are really excited about it really yeah uh online in particular yeah people seem to be keen on it I I yeah didn't really grab me at all look I mean to be honest looks pretty ordinary I guess I do I didn't realize until today um that apparently it's not it's set during the time of the original Warcraft game like it's not World of
Warcraft or any of that stuff it's like way before humans yeah so um I mean that's fine it does remove a bit of like coolness cuz I think it would have been really probably really really difficult to do but really more interesting to have some of the other those other races in in the in the movie but yeah I don't know yeah didn't didn't grab me it just seemed a little crappy quite honestly like I mean it certainly seemed big budget you know like yeah lot of special effects and stuff well I guess it looked it looked like a cut scene from from one of the blizzard games cuz they do these amazing CG cut scenes and it just looked like one of them and then occasionally it would cut and I'd go oh are they real
humans oh they are okay like yeah it's the dude from vik just having a look cuz I thought I thought it might have been that it's there's a whole universe cuz I know with Halo like you guys don't really like Halo but I read the books and everything so I'm really into it so I thought that maybe there's like a lot of Warcraft books but there's not really there's more World of Warcraft the warcraft series there only four books which isn't a lot for how long was Warcraft like 20 years ago now Jesus don't say that really yeah you're probably right it'll have to be close too that explains why I don't remember a damn thing about it I actually finished the first Warcraft played all the way through it when I was a kid yeah so did I I Lovecraft didn't finish any of the
others but the uh the first one I played through yeah I thought I stopped playing Warcraft at Warcraft 3 never got into Starcraft and never got into wow I got into wow a bit wow was fun but I didn't follow the story at all I couldn't tell you never played it not even once I would get addicted to it and that would be bad yeah well you didn't get addicted to um the Star Wars Old Republic that was because they kept changing my character into different services and I had to keep up thinking new names and got sick of it ah I consider jumping back in to check that out SP with Rando Rando yeah I'm sure you never get a better name than that no they deleted him after the beta finished every now and again I do load it up just to update it but I don't
actually play it I don't know why I keep doing it yeah so I have that and I have um Guild Wars 2 as well which is that guild war Guild Wars 2 is actually really great that was a fun game yeah so I mean I keep forgetting that exists cuz my PC wasn't working but yeah that was a great game every now and again I get updates to say they're releasing stuff for Guild Wars I like that cuz I could play that by myself yeah it was a little bit more forgiving than Star Wars was when I was playing by myself instead of playing with other people like it wants you to you just don't like playing with other people do you I don't like playing with people I don't know interesting is it yeah no it's not probably pretty probably no it's
probably pretty normal look how probably love to play with you guys a which we're going to start doing soon that's right Battlefront that's why we have another Xbox Dan did you go see Specta I did and I don't want to talk about it until you've seen it oh really is that out it is out oh out this week [ __ ] see I was going to go see it tomorrow but then I decided I wasn't going to go see it tomorrow because I've got too much stuff on but I'll see if I can I can go before it's not it's not something that we like have to talk about right now so if you don't see it for a week or to we can just talk about it when you see it okay yeah all right I do can I ask that uh yes you want to say no I did like it but that's all I'll say all right all right well we won't talk about that then but I
did want to mention this article because it it's pretty hilarious about a man who crashed the world premiere of Spectre yeah using James Bond style tactics he apparently um he printed a a picture of somebody's tickets um that they posted on Twitter or somewhere on social media uh he he took the the picture and he he managed to create duplicate tickets and then um snuck into the premere yeah and this has been happening a lot lately because I remember somebody uh post for a selfie with their Melbourne Cup winning ticket last week and put it on Facebook and somebody else just printed it out went in and collected the winnings really yeah so if you're going to put something online a picture of you with a ticket to something just make
sure it doesn't have the barcode basically see I'm always paranoid about that with things like pack passes and and stuff like that like whenever my my convention passes come I'm like oh I should post a photo oh wait can I cuz they've got numbers and things on them I don't know if they're like yeah top secret is that how the scalp cuz I remember they did say once that um It's tricky because as soon as they post the picture of what it looks like for this year the scalpers start designing the fake ones you know right so with packs in particular apparently that's a huge issue in um in this in I don't know if it happens here I don't think bu of an issue here CU they still didn't sell out yeah but particularly P pack East I know they have big problems
with it people create fake ones and um and it's yeah you can't it's a hard thing to fight because you do need to have that be able to walk in and out as you feel like with those things so you have to have a quick in and out no pass I don't know how they can beat that or how about people just stop be dicks no pass outs it's 3 days you're inside you're in the [ __ ] Convention Center for 3 days don't pretend you wouldn't do that Matt I would if I had to yeah no you would I would if I had I get upset when they ask me to leave I'd love it yeah we did get kicked out a couple times this year because it got late not cuz we were doing anything wrong yeah well speaking of doing things wrong okay do you want to hear the continuing story of Barnaby Wellington
we ever tempting fate episode 5 play you want to hear it all right for those who don't know um this is a ongoing series it's um completely original there's nothing like this on the internet anywhere you would never have heard a podcast uh that is similar to this in any way AB as far as we know uh our lawyers told me I should say as far as we know yeah I don't know I think that's legally that covers here we go yeah attempting fate episode 5 previously on tempting Fate on April 11th 1995 the wife of a famed Australian tour guide disappeared about a month later her body was found in a cave in the nearby Bush the cause of death was partial
strangulation and a gunshot wound to the back this week I was fortunate enough to speak with one of the key Witnesses in the case against Barnaby Wellington the following is an excerpt from my interview with the nephew of Terry paty smallo the boy who made the gruesome discovery of darling Small's moist decaying body in a cave deep within the pilous scrub 1 month after her disappearance thanks for agreeing to speak with me Psy no worries I'm really sorry to have to ask ask these kinds of questions but could you tell us the events that led up to your discovery of Darlene well it was a long time ago but I'll give it a red out go if I recall correctly I was covering for Uncle Terry by taking some tourists out to the local Squatch watch
hotspots he gave me an old gym bag to use his bait he said it was full of piss covered deer meat he said to leave it outside the entrance to a Cave System where he'd heard Squatch M about a month back he said definitely don't open the bag cuz to be overpowering and we didn't want two H bag squat raping and murdering a Bus full of tourists that would be so awful has that happened before n n never a bus fall anyway I ditched the bag inside the entrance and sat back to see if we could catch a glimpse of a little Scorch pois after a few minutes me and the tourists were going to be Nancy so I went into the cave to see if we could flush out that's um that's that's when I found Annie do who who's Annie darlo is that a a
Sasquatch no num nuts that's me auntie darlo Darlene dolls Dy Dy dingleberries oh Darlene small shoe yeah that's what I said anyway she was kind of laid out naked it would have been pretty hot except I think a squat going to had a bit of a nibble on her yeah poor any dollar anyway we H tailed it back Co the coppers and they headed on down to investigate the police investigation revealed the cause of death to be strangulation and a gunshot wound one month earlier there was no evidence linking anyone to the body however there was one damning piece linking someone to
the crime scene this turned out to be the key piece of evidence in the case against Barnaby Wellington Barnaby how else do you explain it I'm afraid I really have no idea they went missing from my car but they were found just outside the entrance to the cave where Darlene was found do you deny they were yours no of course not they were definitely my gym clothes I just don't have an explanation for how my bag got there next time on tempting fate a surprising development that could support Barnaby's limping case W the plot thickens yeah sure does yeah I think there's going to be some kind of Break In the case soon it's got to be
yeah I've said it before I just I don't think they've got an ending I think he did it I think that's the problem yeah I think he did it that's right all signs point to yes Terry's a dick but come on speaking of Dick speaking of any any dick news I don't know well I mean any dick news there's uh some celebrity [ __ ] news that I just kind of snickered at during the week yeah um Prince admitted on live TV that he [ __ ] Boy George no other way around Boy George admitted he' [ __ ] Prince how did that come up so might I ask so um Boy George is one of the hosts of The Voice which I think is like a kind of idol type competition show and one of
the other judges Paloma Faith said uh oh yeah name drop a bit you know I uh performed once with Prince and Boy George Went I [ __ ] Prince [Laughter] so oh man yeah but is anyone really shocked no one was shocked but uh apparently the network did not like that being said during their Prime Time live feed so yep I could maybe see that the use of words yeah well actually you know to be honest I was paraphrasing so he probably didn't go oh [ __ ] Prince I don't recognize any of these people no but I mean we're not really the target audience for this oh will I am okay I've heard of that person um Ricky Wilson don't know who
that is Palma Faith don't know who that is Boy George Boy George is though right yeah of course of course I know who he is but he doesn't I didn't know he looked like that yeah like if he showed me a picture and went who's that I would not be able to go Boy George yeah that's cuz other than being on The Voice he hasn't been on TV for 30 years he's got a very big hat what's with the big hats lately yeah there's a lot of big hats I've seen farel wearing those too what's with that yeah I don't Luke I think maybe they've overshot you now yeah they're trying too hard you used to be ahead of the head of the Curve right but they've just gone they've just taken that and run with it and now people got these giant hats do you have a giant hat um just my Indiana Jones hat N I see but it's not quite
that style no we've all got one about that you know about that I've been thinking about going to a top hat you're going what to Top Hat or maybe a bowler well I've got a top hat and a bowler hat Matt's got a top hat yeah Jack the Hat crazy whenever we play White Chapel no I don't like crazy I just like think I'm waiting for Matt to get a uh an old timey Sherlock Holmes hat that's that's what I think ah I don't bet it suit me I've just decided I'm buying myself a bower do it all right a bowler you don't want a bowler I want a bowler so you put that hat on you'll be bleeding from every orifice Jesus Oh a bowler and that's a threat de what size hat do you wear Luke I'm not sure do you have a tiny that's
why I'm going to I'm trying to find a place that sells hats so I can go in and find out giant hats cuz if if you're the same size head as me you just go and let yourself into my store room and you're going to have my bowl up all right I'll go get measured up and I'll find out I'm going to guess that he's not the same size head as you no probably not I'm a 55 if anyone's curious or if anyone's planning to buy me a hat I remember years ago I was a 57 I believe but hold off audience right your head probably hasn't shrunk or gr just let me double check this before anyone goes out and buys me one all right everyone Cal down stop buying a hat for Luke right now he will put credit cards away wait till he hands out the correct details I'll have that size for you in 2 weeks cuz I can't
get it for next week cuz I'm not leaving the house for a week you literally not leaving the house nope he's not leaving the Wasteland fall comes out 12:01 are you going to bathe oh I'm I'm going to be still got the shower inside that's okay all right just there's no reason for me to leave do you have an Xbox installed in the shower no unfortun I'm not allowed to buy another one no but somebody could just bring out a a damp cloth you know sponge you down while you're playing the Xbox it might get to that don't give him ideas we won't be allowed around there anymore if we say things like that yeah that's true we don't want to encourage that kind of behavior and I'm not far away from it so you get Xbox games early or you get EA games early do you get to see do
you get to watch Star Wars early no which sucks is there a way I could see it there's a couple of situations where you can watch Star Wars early yeah there's a few few ways have come up in the past few weeks can make the film if you know for sure you'll be dead before it comes out make the film is one of them what what's one of the other ways yeah if you're going to die before the release you get to see it yep which is that's pretty good yeah that I like that that's nice that was nice and I did see that everyone was # Let Daniel see Star Wars and I was like yeah I can get behind that right behind that yeah non-specific very uh but also if you're on a plane from New York to Paris uh and you're on that plane during
the time that it's released you get to just watch it from the moment the plane takes off is that what this is yeah I think so I think the reason that they get to see it on the flight early is is something to do with time zones no no no it's not time zones it's crazy it's cuz that's what I thought but then I thought wow that's weird that they'll be showing on a plane so early um having a look no they actually get to go see in a cinema wait what they buy tickets to go on this plane they fly there's like four flights to doing they fly to their destination they get tickets and they go to a cinema and watch it so they don't watch it on the plane no like that's the first first thing I thought but yeah no they
actually get to go and watch it huh wow all right then fine so whereabouts oh it's hang on I can see there's a few of them huh these aren't the special Star Wars themed plans are they no cuz they're though they're Air Asia right it says registered Travelers will be given free tickets and a free ride in a dedicated Star Wars shuttle to a cinema I assume that means shuttle bus not actually a shuttle uh to a cinema to watch the film the day after landing in Paris well oh okay so they're all flights to Paris so it's somewhere in Paris all right do you guys want to go to Paris yeah let's go to Paris where do we have to fly from uh La New York uh and another one from New York sorry San Francisco LA or New
York okay yeah one of those so I'm guessing La would be the easiest for us been to all of those places so we can all go back yep I think this is just a really strange promotion it's I mean what are they try are they trying to sell flights like they having trouble selling flights to Paris so they're like let's give people Star Wars I mean it would almost make sense if the other way around if they knew you were going to be on a plane when it came out and they showed it to you first so that you wouldn't miss out yeah that makes more me even then it's not like you can never see it no right and it's not like everyone's going to go see it at midnight so yeah I don't know it just seems they would have had to have paid a fortune for
this but I'm I'm thinking we're just seeing what's happening with Disney taking over weird maybe stunts it just you guys got your midnight tickets of course doesn't go on sale here yet really yeah they don't let you book this far in advance I've got two tickets to see it on the first day you're going to see it twice on the first day two for you two for me yeah I see it at midnight and then I'm going to see it later in the day and then I'm also seeing it later in the week as well I'm going to see it at midnight and then if it's good maybe I'll go again yeah that's right I'm not I'm not holding my breath I'm not that confident yet I'm excited I'm very excited get becoming more and more excited have you guys did
you guys watch the Japanese trailer by the way [ __ ] yes did um can I just ask where is Luke um Luke he's here with us are you having one of those weird body dis your things again yeah stop talking about yourself in the third person it's just creepy where is Luke Skywalker somebody did ask JJ that and he said there's a very good reason why he's not in the trailer there were too many children on set I think I think he's dead he's not he's in the film yeah but he could be a force ghost I think he's a ghost I think he's a force ghost all right but all all my other theories he's evil okay all right yeah yeah it's got to be something they don't want to hint at yeah right he's definitely not running around with the
light listeners I'm sorry if either of those things is true and you're disappointed that Luke spoiled them for you I'm not no I didn't think so didn't think so it happens leading on from oh we didn't play the Star Wars news [Music] jingle I just really like that jingle yeah it's a good jingle I had a dream this week that I learned how to surf right and I've never been surfing in my life right but this is how unsporting I am right in my real life in the dream it was a professional Surfer teaching me how to do it right right but obviously my unconscious brain doesn't know the names
of any pro Surfers so in the dream it was Tony Hawk the skateboarder like that's as close as my mind gets to knowing a surfer and he he just kept saying Dan you you drinking that beer or you pretending to yeah that's right Kelly Slater don't make me tell that story again Matt don't make me do it listeners you can find that story somewhere he told [Laughter] it do we have have a jingle for Star Trek news yep we do that yeah space the final frontier these are the space News podcast multiple nerd it's continuing
mission to explore strange new segments to seek out new jokes and new stories about shab to boldly go where no podcast bothered to go before [Music] but that's not really a Star Trek jingle and we also have the special Leonard Nimoy edition of geek of the week of [Music] the mhm mhm MH so between that I think we're covered right yeah probably probably yeah um so the news is there's a new Star Trek TV show coming yeah there is and this is kind of it's excited some people and it's made some people a bit
nervous yeah I mean why would it make people nervous well it's it's being run by the guys who did the new movies right curtzman and aie mhm okay and Damon lindeloff I think as well is involved yeah he is so I'm just I I think it'll go well like even Enterprise went for like five or seven seasons and I didn't understand that show five or seven to I can't remember what it was but it was not six understanding was not the point so if it's Lindelof doing this series I mean it could end up being Lost in Space which in itself was already a show oh that's good yeah I don't know it's uh well I mean we know nothing about it so it's not really it's not we've got a long time to wait 2017 till it comes out yeah stop getting stop getting people excited so far in advance
or nervous so far in advents yeah it's exactly what I said to my prostitute in the taxi stop announcing things just release them in surprises yeah do you remember when you used to not know what was coming out until it came out yeah yep like before the internet you literally had no way of knowing yeah didn't that happen with something recently the closest we've had was Fallout 4 when they came out they did a pretty good job with that four month five months ago I like how five months ago now is a surprise why it was when they announced it I was expecting and it's coming out next year or 2017 not yeah later this year what they need to do is go hey we've announced this game and you can buy it now yeah go like Beyonce did with her album secret album no I'm not
familiar with it no you've never heard of Beyonce I said the I met the album when I said it no I don't I'm not familiar with the album either but I do know that she shocked Everyone by just going hey guess what here's an album yeah I didn't know that okay is it good I don't know I don't listen to that [ __ ] all right then I don't think she won any awards and that's why Kanye was upset as long as he didn't upset Tay Tay I'll not stand by and let that happen again well who he said upset someone else this year didn't he did he Beck Beck yeah did he why what did he do did the same didn't upset Beck he mouthed off at Beck and Beck went I don't give a [ __ ] who you are mate classic classic Kanye classic Kanye mess around he is a genius he is can
somebody explain to me this article uh about a man who was never born who fathered a child uh that would be him that' be him well allegedly yeah can you explain that to me yeah I can explain that so um a couple had a kid right uhhuh and uh at some point it became obvious that he was a different blood type to his dad and they went well that can't be the case mhm and they found out that this dude who was the father of this child had had the startings of a twin when he himself was in the womb right and the twin had stopped developing and he had just absorbed the twin did he have like a third testicle I don't know if it's that specific but some of his cells belong to his twin brother that never
existed wow so I don't really know the science behind this but basically his twin brother fetus that never got born still somehow gave him enough cells to make a sperm out of himself that's how it works right yeah okay so so it's not a case of the wife was like hm you know how you have that one really handsome brother you also had another brother who was a twin who died and it's that one that he's the father didn't just slip some people a bit of money just say it was his twin not your not your other handsome brother yeah you must have had a brother I do have a brother oh yeah definitely not him it's definitely not him okay now I got something um so technically so he's still the father or is the twi absorbed the father yeah does he get custody of this kid or what yeah
like if stay separate does he have to pay child support now cuz he just go not my kid he need this or you think that maybe the absorbed twin will come back and fight for custody I want permission to spend time with my child I love it that he's not only an absorbed fetus but he's now just the Classic ghost yeah I suppose he know he was he's a ghost fetus so yeah what does a ghost fetus sound like I don't want to make I don't want to do it I don't want to do that noise I think it's a scary noise and I don't want to do it it's a noise you know well oh dear no I don't want to make that noise do we have a jingle for ghost fetus news ghost fetus news all right we
don't we don't we just don't just don't do it just the listeners don't want to hear that [ __ ] there's uh there's this other article about a father and son who want to get married I was you were going to go there because this this Delights me for so many reasons number one we did have an article on this show many months ago that Jeremy ions was opposing gay marriage because he said fathers are just going to be marrying their sons yeah um in a hilarious hilariously naive point of view yeah um okay but now it's happening for real sort of well sort of so from what I understand um these these guys were Partners before but because legally that that wasn't recognized one of them adopted the other
yeah so that they could be a family so which is sort of nice where they can have like except now they not allowed to get married because that's incest yeah like so instead of holding out and you know maybe kind of crusading for equal marriage rights they've gone nah [ __ ] it you know we want to be a family and you can't be my husband at least you can be my dad which I can sort of understand they only did this what 3 years ago and they are one of them 78 so they're probably going look we can't see an end to this so let's do this one's 68 he's only 10 years older than him so anyway they adopted one another and a technically Father and Son although still lovers right y problematic in and of itself yeah and now that marriage is legal they they're saying well now we
can get married and of course the courts are saying well no you can't your father and son which is kind of fair enough well so they're going to have to what he's going to have to get emancipated is that and then get married is that the right word that's the right word isn't it I don't know that's not the first thing that comes to mind when I think of that word I think it is is that what is that what Abraham Lincoln wanted so he could marry his own dad is that what it was all about very well could be heard it here first that's all for this week thank you for listening and we hope you enjoyed the show if you enjoyed it then please subscribe and items to receive episodes
