[Music] welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All Things nerdy going to start off this week by saying happy birthday Matt I have a present for you oo thanks man uh post into the chat right now except I've forgotten where the chat windows open let me find that in the chat just in in the spreadsheet down there yeah last week I gave you Planet coaster I I I installed and I opened that and then I was like oh man this is [ __ ] complicated and I haven't gone back to it yet well now I've got your DLC for it as well World's Fair pack oh World's
Fair that sounds fun thanks man not a problem I appreciate it I got it as part of a Humble Bundle that I never opened don't know Luke my uh my birthday is in a few weeks so yeah I've got some stuff ready for you you don't tell people when you're giving them some cheap [ __ ] you don't want just a tip that's I don't know why I still give money The Humble Bundle every month but I don't play any of the games oh do you have the subscription yeah and I've got like the old school subscription so when they've going to changeed it I'm like on a higher te for what I'm paying right cuz now they've changed it it's now instead of just a random few games they give you 10 choices and you can pick any 10 games from a selection of 12 yeah that's not that great you're not
picking the ones you want you're just picking the ones you don't want yeah which of these two don't you want yeah which of these games sucks so you just but but hang on but you don't get any choice you just get what you're given no no I still get to choose but I don't know I think I'm paying less than what I would if I signed up now because they ch the subscription service are you paying less than you would be paying if you only bought the games from it that you actually wanted to play oh most definitely okay maybe the G yeah I Pro I'm definit going to play them but if I have a look how much is planet coaster Planet coaster is $16 when the when that map the first I know have you played Planet Coaster Luke
uh no I think I own it already though yeah okay well I opened it up and it loads up in the first uh theme park it seems like you've got to manage and upgrade a bunch of theme parks that's what it seems like so far and the first one is like a pirate theme park and it's [ __ ] huge and it didn't give me any instructions on what to do I figured out how to zoom around and look and then I was like this is [ __ ] elaborate and a lot more than you're expecting yes so I I am going to play it cuz it does look [ __ ] great but I think I need a manual or something or you can start your own World's Fair yes but luckily there's YouTube which will teach me that's how I learned to play Civ wellish are we talking like retro Worlds Fair
like old timey like debut elevator World Fair yeah electrocuting an elephant can I electrocute an elephant I only think of that one World's Fair were there any others I think so it was a thing wasn't it it I don't think it was I think there was one no no no no no no it was every 5 years or so for like 50 years really I only cuz I only know of that one where they elocuted the elephant yeah and where the alien spaceships landed isn't the um the Seattle needle thing a World's fair thing isn't it or I made that up no you're probably right there's a bunch of stuff I mean the World's Fair is the reason that Americans eat hot dogs and french fries hot dogs are awesome hot dogs are not awesome there was a I love Hot Dogs there was a World's fair where they had
exhibits of people from all around the world and they had like black people in cages and stuff God I mean is that in the DLC yes right I can see why it's it's been tossed into the Humble Bundle we can't sell this but we could force people to play it trying to find something really good for Dan's birthday now yeah M did you see the [ __ ] glasses Jenna got me no no I sent you guys a snap of uh I got she got yeah uh it's it's a Blade Runner the vinyl of the saw the vinyl the VL yeah I think that's what we were looking at ah so next to it was the bottle of the uh Blade Runner jacket I saw that that I saw as well that was awesome and and below that holding some of it was a
glass oh Oh I thought you met glasses as in eyeg glasses oh no no no no no as in like whiskey glasses well I now I need to see them again I'll send you another I'll send you a snap of just the glass that's why I was like have I made this too elaborate I'm I'm burying the lead here which is that I have these [ __ ] awesome glasses now you you should call them a Tumblr Tumblr and it can explode into a motorcycle 40 years old m i don't call them tumblers no but that's what they are aren't they tumblers get whiskey tumblers don't you is it that what you call I paid up adult what do you call them I thought whiskey glasses were low balls or is that just a specific type of whiskey glass I don't know you know about low balls you're 40
now sure whiskey see I put in whiskey tum and it finishes with Tumblr and shows me glasses yeah well when I type in low balls once I've scrolled through all the gay porn I mean I do see whiskey glasses I'm put posting in down the bottom a link to what Harrison Ford drinking from one and then I'll send you a snap of me drinking from one later why don't you just take a picture of both of you drinking from the same glass we can't so we're socially isolating right now he won't he won't come around so what do you guys been doing social distancing mhm so that's about it just playing video games as usual for you l actually I've been having I haven't been playing video games I've been sitting here
trying to decide which video game to play oh yeah about two days now I've done a bit of that this week too oh those are nice Matt those are nice I I need those classes but no I I finished two games very very quickly cuz of mods oh so you cheated surviving there's aame surviving Mars yeah surviving Mars it's on Game Pass and it's on Windows and also Xbox and they came out with some mods for it where you just put these mods on it unlocks all thechi in 30 seconds I like how he's like yep I finished the game yeah did you though when you say they you mean the developer put this mod out no the developer allows mods and then nerds went out and made the mods for me I thought your only Proviso for it not being quote cheating
is if the developers themselves have allowed for it mhm the the developer allows mods that's a very very broad spectrum then isn't it does trueachievements.com give this mod a pass is that how that's where I found it see well see there was a game that I was never ever going to get like a finished completely because it's an RTS where like you got to set up and create a colony of Mars and very specific goals so no no continue justifying it go on I mean it certainly sounds like a [ __ ] game that you'd want to only play 30 seconds on I've not got any interest in setting up a colony on Mars that sounds boring to me yeah hey I did buy the DLC so I could unlock that as well so I gave him some money I'm sure they're like so pleased
that you bought their game that they spent like months and months working on so that you could put mod on and just grab the achievements and then throw in the trash but it's how I roll I know I know you just make me laugh oh my g score at the moment is 733,000 [ __ ] hell I don't even know what mine is sounds rather high but I maybe I've got that yeah I can find out for you no don't find out it be quicker for him to look than for me to look I don't even know where to look um I'm on the website I don't not good with this where are my friends on here I I want to start a new game game for the quarantine which is why I've not played anything for the last few days is because you know as everyone knows I was playing Far
Cry 5 I've done two out of the three territories when I started the third one I was just like I played this over too long a period and now this is Bor sure I was loving it but I've done it enough now so I don't want to play more of that I don't want to go back to Conan and uh I need something new so I I mean I've been playing Doom I've been playing Borderlands 3 actually we played a bunch of that yesterday we started the DLC even you know what I like about Borderlands 3 is I think you mentioned this Luke already but I I am loving the fact that you don't have to be a certain level to do any of the content you can just do it you go anywhere and it just scales to your level yeah and [ __ ] the DLC is great the characters and stuff in
Borderlands are so funny like it's just I don't know everything about is just really entertaining to me so I can let you know that you recently hit 30,000 did I you're on 3,418 wow oh I wouldn't say recently it could have been haven't got any achievements lately I don't think um you reached on the 8th of March okay what was I doing you were playing The Witcher oh yeah I was yeah is all that information on there or are you just keeping a real close eye on that he's just pulled out his notbook and uh all this information is on there he's just checking his surve camera footage of what I was doing yeah that's right it was the 6th of March you were wearing je a Devon Townsen t-shirt this this is why I actually pay
for achievements like account so I get all this extra information on on your friends and family yeah mhm so I can recommend Borderlands 3 if you're into Shooters which I'm not sure that you are but you know I sometimes am but what I really is something that I'm going to become obsessed with it's been so long since I've been obsessed you finished the worlds didn't you no I didn't start the out of Worlds actually oh the out of Worlds is good out of Worlds yeah it's good yeah it's it's Fallout in fact I think I might have purchased that and not played it so H okay all right I recommend that yeah it's very good did you say Fallout in space yes yes okay I'm there yeah 100% there it's like it's the guy it's the developers of Fallout made a game that
is like uh in gameplay it's Fallout like Fallout 3 Fallout New Vegas it's actually it's literally The Fallout New Vegas guys well obsidian actually it's actually and they're the people who made the original two Fallout games right it's very good so it's got It's got the gameplay of Fallout New Vegas with the humor of Fallout 2 great and it is an amazing game and you should play it hey I actually finished it which has got to count for something I that's I need to play through it again I need to finish it for a second time yeah it's coming out on the switch which is I don't know I I've not been playing the switch very much I'll be honest well mate put it on eBay you'll get a [ __ ] fortune for it oh is that true now I want it I
just um I recently installed Animal Crossing on it oh have you been playing that no I haven't I installed it though I see everybody playing it and I want to play it from seeing everybody else playing it but then I remember playing uh what was the one on 3DS just Animal Crossing wasn't it no it was I remember sending abusive letters to a penguin that promised to come over to my house and never turned up then running him out of town yeah but then I remember play I just don't think I don't think I'm going to actually end up liking it and so I'm I'm resisting it it's it's a game that you need to have a lot of time New Leaf was the 3DS one new Leaf you need a lot of time cuz it's very grindy that's exactly and then everybody else has apparently the time
but I'm am I going to play that over the other games that I'm playing probably not so henah is loving it she's in deep with Tom knock God that crafty [ __ ] raccoon hey you now ow a house pay me money I assume not Dan you've never played Animal Crossing no I haven't I think I think it's because I live too close to China and uh it's banned there now yeah really yeah they banned it there this week uh they realized that it was a platform for free speech and they don't like that there mhm now if you've purchased it there and now it's been banned do you get a refund oh I doubt it I doubt it I think you might get arrested you know the switches are apparently sold out worldwide right now
yeah yeah I did not know that either so bad luck if you don't already have one but most people would already have one oh I think people I think Animal Crossing came out and a lot of people who didn't have one now want one and oh a lot of people in China the billion of them you know what's funny though is that uh that China the Chinese government have come out this week and said that there are no new um covid-19 cases in China um but we know that there are some in Hong Kong and in Taiwan so does this mean China is officially officially recognized those two uh territories as independent nations I think they're just referring to Mainland CH I think you know the answer Dan I think you know the answer to that but yeah is it just they're just
there aren't any because they're not being made at the moment is that the reason I or covid-19 both no I just think that everyone was like [ __ ] I'm going to have a lot of time on my hands I better get myself a switch yeah I think it's just like like the toilet paper situation where Nintendo was like okay we've settled into a a rhythm here of you know like manufacturer and demand and all that kind of stuff and then everyone was like give us a [ __ ] switch now and then they ran out all at once when went to the went to the shops that I justed to do bit of grocery shopping still toilet paper shelves empty really yeah apparently that's it got okay here for a bit but now apparently it's bad again I can't get a [ __ ] grocery delivery for the life of me anymore so not happening
I can over here they've got a thing where if you're an Central worker you go on the special list and I got a letter saying I'm sensual you're sensual I'm very sensual I don't think that's what it says that's what it says after I changed the wording oh I mean that's that's what I've always said I'm a very sensual person for some reason whenever I say that I have to rub my chest thanks for letting us and the listeners know you know what Matt let's let's just take the fact that it was his chest as a win and move on I'm a very sharing person uhhuh I won't hide anything anything from our listeners anything anything at all I watched some
movies uh during my uh my time movies I've watching some old movies three watching how old Stripes not Stripes uh' 60s they're from the' 60s okay uh are we going to we could play a guessing game if you if you want Oh Bond let's make this a [ __ ] game not James Bond No are they horror movies Matt no they're not horror movies it's a genre that you might not expect from okay um Gone With the Wind no not a genre directed by directed by an Italian okay but not but not Dario agento correct very very famous and iconic series would I know it yes I I'd be very [ __ ] surprised if you don't did you say serious serious yeah three films I watched uh Loosely a series they've been
made a series that I don't think they were really intended to be as tightly linked as people seem to think they are on a rewatch I I thought that oh are you talking are they Western they are ah mhm yes nice yeah they don't have anything to do with each other but they're all [ __ ] great no what are they especially the first and the third oh well see I okay so we're talking about uh it's Sergio Leon it's the they call it what is it the May with no name Trilogy now but it's kind of just like three films that he made they were calling it The Dollars Trilogy at one stage yeah but the third one doesn't doesn't have any dollar about money no doesn't it's gold not even dollars that they're after but anyway it's uh it's a
fist full of dollars or for a fist full of dollars I think is the full name for a few dollars more and then The Good the Bad and the Ugly you familiar with I've heard of them they've got Clint in them that's correct and so I rewatched them all and I remember I always thought Good the Bad and the Ugly was the best but I think that's cuz everybody says that and it is I mean they're all fantastic but I'm not sure is the best of them I think on this rewatch I liked for a few dollars more the most really it's been years since I've seen that one so I really should go back it's just yeah like I remember watching them when I was like young but I I could not for the life me to remember what's in them is there one where someone wears like a uh an oven door as body armor yeah well
it's it's a piece of mining equipment but yes okay you're thinking of an oven door because you're thinking of Back to the Future 3 oh that's right with that's a play on on that's yeah for if it's full of dollars yeah he does that but yeah uh great movies great [ __ ] amazing soundtrack that's cuz The Good the Bad and the Ugly I listen to The Good the Bad and the Ugly soundtrack all the time it's one of my favorite soundtracks ever I know I saw you holding it on vinyl in France last year trying to decide if you could get it back to America I own it now I own it on vinyl now great yeah one of my favorite scores and I was like I got to watch the movie again to see the music kind of in CU it's been so and then I mean yeah it's fantastic but and it's weird that
they're not linked because it's they' got Clint Eastwood as basically the same character uh but it's not and two of them have [ __ ] what's that guy's name the guy who's the other bounty hunter in the second one you know it's probably going to be they're not linked for a stupid licensing reason or something like that no I think it's just it's kind of kind of like they just wanted to make he they kind of expand well actually back then things didn't have to be a Trilogy or anything exactly I think he just he made the first one and he was like all right we can do a better one and then so he just got everybody back and he's like all right let's do another one and it's like it's like Mad Max really yes exactly they're not sequels but they're about the same character
more or less they're more like legends about Clint Eastwood's character and they're not necessarily sequential or anything it's just kind of like a story about that character that may or may not take place in the same world as the others cuz it's got actors the same actors playing completely different characters MH in in the films like the the guy who's the bounty hunter in the the second one is the I guess he's a bounty hunter in the good the bad the ugly as well but like I said it's just the same people but they're not the same characters yeah anyway I recommend them [ __ ] great slow but it's cuz they were made in the 60s so I'm fine you any explosions every 2 minutes correct yeah it spends a lot of time on cinematography it's [ __ ] beautiful
and the way I I they really just like the way he shoots everything it I mean he started a lot of that stuff with the you know the way they he shot the the shootouts and the and all that kind of stuff with the close-ups to the wides and all that kind of stuff it's just so beautiful yeah everything in super deep focus yeah yes and then just I don't know where they shot all this I assume Italy actually yeah I think it's Italy or even Spain for some of it but like that the particularly the each one ends in like a big shootout obviously and then like that Cemetery at the end of The Good the Bad and the Ugly what a [ __ ] beautiful location so good I just remember when I was a kid that scene in The Good Bad and the Ugly where they that they're wearing the um Confederate
uniforms and they see soldiers coming they're like oh they they're great they're like us and then they just start dusting themselves off and they're Union Soldiers underneath [ __ ] I just when I was a kid I was like movies are great I know you know what's a great Weston that I only saw for the first time this year is The Wild Bunch also from the 60s but this one's true blue American so you should put this on your list if you haven't seen it Luke I'd be surprised if you haven't seen this with your dad at some point oh I may have but I don't remember yeah but this is this is this is the quintessential like group of Bandits who actually want to retire but just need to pull off One Big Score first and it's great do they do it
uh no they don't they don't I used to watch a lot of John Wayne westons with my dad when when I was younger yeah yeah he in he was more of a John Wayne guy than a Clintwood guy mhm and they were late night movies weren't they the John Wayne ones I I for some reason I remember those was like the Sunday Afternoon movie but then there were also no Kung Fu was normally at late at night the TV Weston's in the afternoon Kung Fu at night sort of a Weston oh yeah absolutely sort of well I mean Kura remade fist full of dollars well I think it's the other way around isn't it didn't didn't he successfully sue Sergio Leon for ripping off um oh is it that way around I can never get it right what's the film um oh is it
Yojimbo right yes yes Jimbo yes yeah I think he actually won a lawsuit that and then George Lucas narrowly escaped one Wars yeah that's right but I think he only did that because Lucas film produced a kurasawa movie like in the Years following uh Empire Strikes Back ah might be bit like don't Su us but we'll give you we'll help you out let's not say I paid you off let's just say I'm now producing your future films yeah cuz the [Applause] [Laughter]
mentioned off air you were unimpressed by a television series that everybody else seems to be quite the rest of the world absolutely loves yes now have you finished this I have finished it and also already watched their special episode 18 oh [ __ ] I haven't done that oh that's out already that's out do not bother isn't it just Joel male telling you about the story of the show you just watched Joel male just doing an interview with someone the people who were on it oh okay MH okay oh I mean that could still be good I like John M I do like but yeah this is just this is not what you were expecting it to be it's not like another episode it is just uh all right but you didn't like the show is that what you're telling us um I didn't I not like I hated it or anything
I just don't see what the big fuss is about I don't I don't know just wasn't for me I just you just like it's just a bunch of noral people doing normal stuff yeah crazy Matt when you're Luke alerson it takes it takes a lot before you'll go that's a bit weird yeah to get that eyebrow raised is very difficult [ __ ] two straight men marrying a gay guy he's like oh yeah yeah I've lived a very strange tiger oh yeah not impressed yeah test me test me Netflix well Luke would you consider watching the film made about Joe Exotic Life starring Rob low as Joe Exotic no okay and I also think I think by the time that they get around to making this
I think the novelty will have worn off for a lot of people as well that's possible isn't there a TV series there Kate McKinnon coming out as well or something she's yeah I think there a lot of people are looking to cash in on this now and I think part of reason why this did so well is the fact everyone is locked inside I think that has played a bit of a part to it the fact that they were forced to watch it yeah you might be right yes that's on the poster watch this if you're locked in a room and can't look away from the screen I think it'sit that mass hysteria everyone's got a bit cabin crazy and S of the world sort of latched onto this one thing that they could all get behind you might be right about that actually do you know uh this show Tiger King has
more people have watched this than have watched season two of stranger things God damn and you think about what a [ __ ] cultural thing stranger things was that's [ __ ] mindblowing but there was some stuff I was watching in this that was like still what the hell like the whole that guy gets his arm eaten by a tiger yep it's a girl but as a woman yeah uh no identifies as a man okay I didn't know that but F all right you have done research yeah I was going to say jeez only reason I know that was because of watched the most recent episode and joh M actually asks like they refer to you as her and that but you identify as male and she and he basically went look it bothered a lot lot of other people more than it bothered
me all right but yeah does that the whole the guy that loses both legs in a ziplining accent that they sort of just gloss over yeah well I mean he obvious I mean I just assumed he clipped something with his legs yeah but still it's yeah you wanted the details and then one of the one of the umat crocodiles he says look everyone who sees my legs just hopes they were GED off by tigers but I'm sorry they weren't yeah I wish they were I wish they were frankly you know how the the film shooter was burnt down and there was like alligators in them one of those alligators was own owned by Michael Jackson oh my God is this all information from that extra episode well yeah you're certainly not talking us out of looking at it no no this is stuff that Hannah's been
telling me God Hannah's done research into it but yeah just stuff like that interv the show yeah you did have Hanah on here she's a lot better than me yeah I mean just generally speaking yes she is guys I don't want to I don't want to Railroad this conversation but I I've just seen some news Tim Brook Taylor died oh no and you know what he died of yeah he died virus Ah that's [ __ ] yeah it's affects everyone but so 10 minutes ago for for people who don't know him he was in the goodies that's where I know him from I [ __ ] saw the goodies live in Sy if you did you that's great and if you don't know him from the goodies you've definitely seen him in other things I think he's even plays a cameo
role in willly Wonker in the Chocolate Factory oh man what a top guy he was oh that sucks this is the first person that I've seen who's died of Corona virus that I've actually you know been a loved well affected your life in some way well I don't want to say it and sound callous because you know there's no no I know what you mean people that have been killed but mhm it's part of the thing that makes it hard for a lot of people to actually take Corona virs seriously is because it hasn't really affected cuz it's shut down the world but people don't really understand why cuz it hasn't really affected their lives weird I think it's going to unfortunately I think it is too we're in total lockdown now and um you're only allowed to leave your house to buy food or to exercise Outdoors
which is really really vague so more people are Outdoors exercising in big groups than they ever have before like oh so you in Australia you're allowed to exercise we like go to somewhere and exercise but only maximum of two people yeah this we don't have that and like I I think that's what it's supposed to be you you can still go for a walk you don't have to turn into a potato inside your house but then I saw with all your friends yeah carrying a basketball down the street and I'm like guys you really you're pushing this I feel in Australia some guys got fined for playing Cricket in a park really yeah there you go it weeds me out that people think like oh it's a game if I can find a loophole then yeah then it's okay for me to do this the virus won't get me because yeah
no no I know they said we could stay that we had to stay home but they said we could go and play we go and exercise so you know we're out yeah haha we got you well Hannah was telling the story how people were saying oh we've found a way to get around it we're staying a distance apart where we're going to play cards no that's terrible idea because I just don't understand why people want to like what don't you understand about this it's for your it's not just because it's a it's not arbitrary rules it's so you don't [ __ ] catch this thing the the governments didn't get together and come up with this evil plan to shut down the entire world and cost billions of dollars yeah I know they're not doing it for fun man there were people outside my building flying kites today and I'm like
I bet you've never flown a [ __ ] kite in your life stay inside let's not share this around and pretty soon no one will have it anymore yep I've been training for this for many many years though and ironically you still have to go to work go to work yeah but like when I come home from work on a Friday I go inside pants come off not leaving the house till Monday that's so I'm ready for this locked inside business I'm easy but now I still have to go to work cuz I'm sensual yeah J Jenna's got to go to work as well so I guess I guess she's also sensual uh yes not not her to describe that way but that's fine I don't know I've heard at least one animal hand job story from her work so yeah it's in the family I guess to be and to be clear for those of you who
just don't don't know what I'm talking about it wasn't Jenna who was giving the hand job yeah let's be clear about that yes so she's still got to go to work so she's kind of designated go out and do things if things need to be done like get food and and supplies and whatnot cuz since she's out anyway but that fights to get toilet paper well it also means that I really need to isolate well as well because I'm in contact with her and then I don't know we're kind of like we're the kind of we like for example we couldn't go see her parents cuz that would be dangerous so cuz they are [ __ ] psychos that's right yes it's been a pretty quiet birthday actually couldn't go to the club like I normally would no Club no party no no sharing
needles and that's that one time of year where you're happy to share that's right normally it's all mine anyway on that are we uh are we naming Tim Brook Taylor geek of the week we do have some others we most certainly are look before you do that look it's good that you you've got him there but can I throw out another geek of the week candidate sure okay holy [ __ ] I've just seen this honor Blackman died yeah I added that in yeah no AKA [ __ ] Galore from James Bond from from gold finger yeah yeah oh she was one of the original and best Bor girls yep that's a shame she didn't die of coronus high she would have been 90
years old if she was a day 94 natural causes so I don't think so oh man one of the well we've lost a few people in Rhode Island to Sean Conor slapped her to death God we lost we've lost a few elderly people in rhod AR to coron virus and they announced the other day one of the people who died of Corona virus was over 100 years old and I was like Wow [ __ ] man imagine you made it to like 10 whatever 10 anything and then you touched your face like what a [ __ ] virus yeah honestly like How old could they have gotten to we'll never know 100 anyway honor Blackman wait geek s we do we have geek is geek what women can't be Geeks I well I've been LED to

blew the whistle on the whole getting a [ __ ] in the Oval Office thing see I still don't see why that was a problem which part of it really don't which part of it it was a problem because he lied about it yeah but why did he have why did he have to answer the question anyway I mean you know imagine Luke was the judge in all of this and all that I W judge like the [ __ ] Senator or whoever [ __ ] decides that stuff Luke is the yeah I never understood that at time so he got a blow drob I am the Senate and then got in trouble because he lied about saying it well why did he have to answer that question to begin with cuz someone was like did you get a [ __ ] Bill and he was like No And then
that's it impeached yeah they're like did you did you put a cigar in your intern's vagina and then smoke that cigar and he's like no didn't smoke it she smoked me mate see you think Luke you think if he had just said yep he would have been all right yeah suck that seemed to be the problem the fact that he lies actually let's be fair he was all right he was still the President right it's not yeah like it he's fine so look as uh quoting the panel from the time it's going to take more than a [ __ ] to blow his job but with this one I can't give her geek of the week is it because she looks a little bit like Rebel Wilson no it's
just because I she fil recorded of conversation wait so you don't like Rebel Wilson Luke is that what you're saying I never said that I can't well okay so you do like Robin Robin Williams love thr fat Pizza fat Pizza [ __ ] hell American listeners have no idea what that is and they keep it that way you don't want to know what that is they would not get it you are missing I barely got it and I was from I lived in Australia for for 30 something years so not she's not getting geeked awake Linda drip [ __ ] off we wa did she die of Corona virus or something else no I think she's just incredibly old I hate that you have to
[ __ ] specify these days somebody died oh coron virus no like you just yeah that's Grim isn't it like uh oh how's you how's you nan oh Corona took her like it's going to be [ __ ] awful the the aftermath of this yep and the thing is like I look outside my window and all I see is kids flying [ __ ] kites like it it still feels so removed and yet Tim Brook Taylor is [ __ ] dead Tim Brook Taylor has hit you real hard it it has I'm sorry guys but [ __ ] it's timr tlor yeah I know I know I remember still remember the last time I saw him at the [ __ ] what is it the Queen's what's the Royal Theater in Sydney her maest theater that's it's
gone now isn't it that uh yes it is it is gone yeah oh it has and Tim Brook Taylor I saw the Pirates of penants there also oh with um John English yes I saw that yes I did that was great yep um sideline Matt why do I think you saw suti live don't think I did okay a false memory no let me fact check that I may have seen it live when I was a kid I don't remember okay so that may have come up at some point my mom may have mentioned that and I yeah I love it that there are topics that it's like oh you and my mom might have discussed that oneon-one it's quite possible that my mom told you
that so let me check yeah because I did I was very into SOI I have uh hand puppet that's great yeah I don't know where it is it's in this house somewhere Jenna's tried to destroy it I think you took cuz I tried I tried to get her to watch it once and immediately as soon as sweep showed up on the [ __ ] screen started making the noise she was like turn it off turn it off Jenna you're a bigot if you're not familiar with sui and sweep in particular or Sue or Sue yeah that's probably Su is a weird name for the third puppet if you've got suti and sweep and Sue it's short for Susan that was the joke wasn't it was it I don't know I was very young I get made fun of
all the time by H because I had a dog called Todd and she said that's that's not a dog's name we had a German Shepherd called Helga and the this that that is quite funny you know like the the German Shepherd's name is Helga um but I never really got that until fairly recently right cuz my mom posted those photos of me uh on Facebook recently with did you and it finally just clicked and did you feel a little silly or well it's just that because when I was a kid I never made that connection so I just to not make that connection the dog a dog's name was Helga and then I she put the photo up and I was like we a German Shepherd named Helga that's quite funny there's this F I always go on about this whatever stock photo you put next to an
article I'm going to think the banner headline is describing that particular photo right yeah yeah so there's a picture of Tim Brook tayor here shrieking in horror and it says Tim Brook Taylor dies after CRA like like this's not a picture of him Contracting Corona virus it's just him pulling a funny face it's not like you were there with a camera the moment he got it the moment that he he was infected why are you lining up a shot don't worry don't worry just shake my hand uh we got some followup on uh we do the issue that for some reason we keep talking about and I don't think anyone gives a [ __ ] but it just no I tell you why Matt it's because this this story it's hit us
hard it's y yeah Amber herd MH could be facing three years in jail yeah and actually I I really hope if it does come to light that she did lie about it I really hope that she does get jail because it's one of these things like she makes it hard for people who sorry so slick willly oh you lied about it who gives a [ __ ] Amber herd oh she you lied [ __ ] that [ __ ] she's been hitting Johny no I'll let that slide she lied about it [ __ ] go to prison yeah yeah did slick willly lie about Johnny Depp no so no but what I'm saying is for him he lied about getting a blow drob uhhuh but this she was lying about some heat which makes it harder for people who are
in that situation coming forward because it puts more doubt behind them yeah what about all the people getting [ __ ] from their [ __ ] interns no they'll be fine who standing up for their right no I I think you're right I do think that that if if she did lie about it then she should face consequences because absolutely right there there's been such a push towards trying to stop all this stuff and to lie and take advantage of that is I agree with that but I also hope there's no backlash from this because yeah and from now on women who are going to be you know uh claiming the me too defense are going to have people go will is it real because look at am they already do but this is just going to add fuel to
the fire and that's why I really think if it does come to case they should make an example of her and look at jail for for that reason yeah for the step back she's making everyone take now you know to be hilariously ironic cuz if when she went to prison got bashed and no one believed her mhm think about that Luke Amber herd I I mean do we have a what do we have of the week for her we're very disappointed in you all right fine that'll do Luke is disappointed in you man Luke Luke is disappointed is not mhm look before we move on from followup news and and leaving amberh her behind
um yes as the world should yeah M I honestly couldn't pick her out of a lineup I don't know who she is but uh no something I be good for her then yeah something I um I am Keen to hear more about um is the butthole cut of cats yeah um so not only story not only has it been confirmed that uh yes CG artists did have to paint out buttholes um someone's also made a trailer of what that might look like that they first had to paint in yes well apparently they the buttholes weren't added apparently the buttholes were an unfortunate side effect of having to motion track fur
onto the Cliff of an actor's buttocks oh so essentially the anus is the the joining the is the Nexus just like real life for all the CGI fur right the heart of the human is the anus as we know that's where they that's where the growth of the human begins it's how to get to the very center of a human being isn't it I mean we call it the bottom but it's halfway up it's the middle it's the middle the I watched this trailer um uh it was very funny yeah I feel like I don't need to watch the film now no definitely I feel I I've even watched I I'm really interested in in this movie for a number of of reasons number one I I just not the ones they want you to be interested no definitely not those
definitely not because I think it looks like a good movie that I might enjoy definitely not that um but like I've watched a lot of like Vlogs from people who love musicals love film adaptations of musicals and even love Cats the musical who all agree this is a [ __ ] abomination M and I just don't understand why look I mean the math yeah I just don't understand why other than the maths kind of checks out do you know what I mean there's been a couple of musicals in the last few years um I think the greatest showman a couple of years ago made a billion dollars so they were like okay let's do another musical uh what do we have the rights to I don't know why they went to cats though it sounds interesting on paper it's just just
seems the execution was weird yeah and and if you don't know that the musical is actually not a it's not strictly a musical it's just a series of songs right it's it's more like a cabaret there's no story that links them all it's just that each Cat sings a different song and right yeah they've they've had to make up a story for this movie for there to be a story so they've taken one song and taken its kind of narrative and stretched it out over the whole movie right but if somebody just said look it's it's a you know it's a it's a dark tale of you know cats living in an alley and you know their nine lives are up and you know like all all of this stuff like that you'd be like yeah you could you could explore some
interesting themes there sure but this doesn't explore any themes this is just this is just cats singing and and from all I can tell trying to look sexy and luk interested it's got Rebel Wilson in it so Luke is where's this come from that I don't like Rebel Wilson I you tell us mate where does this come from yeah Luke let's just get this out Australian what do you have against Ribble Wilson because I I recently saw um JoJo rabbit and I thought she was fantastic in it I haven't seen that yet but I've got nothing against TR Wilson watch JoJo rabbit and see if that changes your mind about Rebel Wilson look we're we're it's very if I don't like an actress you all know about it that's true that's very true and we
all know how you feel about reel Wilson so well and I got to say Christen Stewart is not in JoJo rabbit so I think I think we all know how Tao feels about her as well now true [ __ ] Sam Rockwell is so great in that movie everybody's I'm G to have to see it yeah you do it's really good Luke it's really good those [ __ ] kids are so funny and good his friend man the the yeah the big big kid is [ __ ] he's apparently going to be in the Home Alone remake that for some reason they're doing oh God and I was like on the one home alone yeah EXA on one hand I'm like I don't want that but on the other hand I do want to see that little kid in more stuff cuz he was [ __ ] hilarious yeah so definitely not a good time to be a
Nazi such a good movie so Luke yes any update on your Mars one no I haven't heard anything from them in a quite some time I think I may have gone bankrupt so you haven't heard from finally happened you haven't heard from Mars one since you didn't send in an application to be part of Mars one that's really surprising funny about that yeah well it's some Mars news uh Mars is is I guess there's a bunch of Mars stuff going on but one of the I I found this particularly interesting just cuz this has not happened before um they're sending another Rover to Mars which has happened this one's a [ __ ] helicopter mhm mhm and the thing I like about is they don't
even know if it's going to work but we're going to find out I know this is just really exciting to me is that are they sending sort of like two like they're going to send an actual Rover that they know will work and this as well good question I don't know CU me just see like a big a lot of money to spend on one shot actually yeah you're right I'm looking in there is another there's the perseverance is another like Land Rover so I guess yes the answer is yes I think it's a Duo see I should work for NASA Land Rover is a car so what's that Land Rover is a car oh my bad it's not it's not you're mistaken you could probably drive your cyber truck on Mars though couldn't you I [ __ ] will one day I
hope but yeah so this thing's going to be flying around on Mars how [ __ ] rad is that yeah that's great taking pictures getting some samples of I love it that it's called perseverance too because it's like look this is probably not going to work right away but we are committed to trying no yeah we'll figure it out hopefully yeah remember when we were kids and they were like I wonder if there's water on Mars and now it's just like yeah there's water up there we're [ __ ] know all the stuff about it like that all escalated pretty quickly and with less Fanfare than I was expecting yeah and I guess it's because when we were kids people just [ __ ] loved space like everyone yeah and now it's just us so like there were video games I forget the name of the particular one but there
was the the whole point of the game was just to find water on the moon what was that Sim Sim moon or something Sim Moon water but like but like if you found water you won you won the cuz that was yeah yeah cuz that was it like but I guess thinking about is there life on Mars is there water on Mars like these are Big questions but the answer is a very small answer yes there is there's ice on Mars and there is microbacteria so yes there's life as well and you're like oh okay so I'll stop wondering then but I remember when I was a kid that was that was going to change the world when we found that out but it really just it was just like people just don't seem to give a [ __ ] anymore I was in this astrophysic physics Lab at this University that I've
been doing some work for and um and the the guy there's this Chinese um astrophysicist he's [ __ ] hilarious he put a rocket into orbit last year he's super proud of it he'll tell you about it if I ever introduce you he just can't stop talking about it but he's showing me through the labs right he showed me his um [ __ ] nuclear fusion [ __ ] machine I don't even know what you'd call it right and he turns it on and he's just like we just created nuclear fusion I like [ __ ] Rad but he's got this big thing this big white tube that's just in this room all on its own right and um we were going to interview him somewhere and my my cameraman was like oh do you mind if we just like unplug a few things in this room um so we can and and the guy was
like no anyway on the on this big white tube is this uh little like bronze plaque that says and I took a picture of this so I I'll put this up on the uh on the Instagram spe species containment unit ooh and I was like what the [ __ ] is in there and he was like it did he tell you yeah he did tell me and he he told me he by prefacing it saying it's going to be far less interesting than you want this to be oh is it is there's an ant in there it's a plasma species no an ant would have been interesting it's a species of plasma okay yeah okay okay yeah this whole guy's thing is he sends plasma to space to see what happens to it oh okay yeah that's that's a lot of it just come back and they go nothing nothing happened I don't know that pretty
expecting it to be like dark Phoenix where it gets superpowers yeah also I don't actually know what plasma looks like to just look at it like I'm I don't think it looks like anything does it well exactly but I'm imagining like a blob on a petri dish that's like glowing and coming alive yeah and using telekinetic Powers Yeah that's right and then like like squelching through the skin of like a beautiful woman and now she's an alien and she's also going to kill you yes mhm and they have a hive mind yes and it's Natasha Heinrich fine um speaking of space stuff I uh I I started reading a book this week um I'm almost ashamed to talk about it
really is it a romance novel it's a science fiction it's not a romance novel it's a science fiction novel with romance in it um so far there's no romance in it thankfully um it's just it's just the person that I had to buy the book from okay uh and it's just you know the author of the book and I had to give him an and his company some money to to buy this book no it's not awesome Scot card um I bought Tom Dong's book and I had to buy it from the to the Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences website oh it's it's not who I thought I thought it was going to be a scent Elon hubard book oh right I just borrow that from Luke yeah yeah got plenty of them they emailed me again actually what is his book it's called secret machines and the reason I bought
this is because I went back and and relistened because I I just in my head it couldn't have been real so I went back and relistened to his interview with Joe Rogan where he tells Joe Rogan about how the the [ __ ] NASA and the FBI and the CIA and all of these kind of top brass people have told him the truth about aliens and have allowed him to be the custodian of this information to delegate it to the people over the next 10 years through fiction through fictional works and then in 10 years he's going to go you know all those movies and books that I that I made were they and you've known all along you just blew it yeah you just told everybody yeah I know exactly so apparently everything in secret machines secret spelled with a K instead of a c and I haven't gone
further enough in the book to 't discovered the secret of why that is why why that dumb spelling is there but um apparently this apparently this is the answer to Roswell and Area 51 Etc yep I know the answerid are 51 we know that we've known that since the ' 80s but anyway one yeah yeah what self bomber yep yep yep yep that's that's what that was that's what they want you to think Matt I mean all right touche fair enough be so believe in Flat Earth as well thanks for bringing that up Luke do we need to have an intervention no I'm just fascinated by Flat Earth cuz your wife's concerned yeah yeah she's spoken to us in private Luke um yeah she has approached us about your obsession no I've actually stopped watching YouTube videos about Earth I'm
now now watching Flat Earth videos about people debunking the Flat Earth videos okay I I did some research because I actually wasn't sure and Matt I'm sure you're on the same page as me I wasn't sure where this thing even [ __ ] came from the Flat Earth thing yeah because like I know we all joke like that um you know that people used to think the world was flat but at very few times in human history did anyone think we lived on a flat earth like everyone was like mellan thought that there was a flat Earth until he sailed around it no he didn't he wouldn't have sailed it if he thought it was flat he sailed it to Pro it wasn't um yeah the [ __ ] the Ancients
knew the [ __ ] people that built the Stonehenge knew mhm but evidently the movement the modern movement of the flat earthers started in the 1800s as because of one or two phrases in the Bible that says the four corners of the earth and instead of assuming that that's figurative poetic language yeah that just meant there are a few there are a few different areas of Flat Earth there are the the people believe that there are the other people who just believe it's a whole government conspiracy to keep from now weren't the government back then and also why come on who [ __ ] why just feeding you what they want you to believe well here's the
thing here's here's the question that always just comes down to who's getting rich off of it because if no one's getting rich off of it no one's going to bother so if somebody is somebody getting rich by me thinking that the world is round yeah that they they do try to say well it's it's all a li to hide where the money cuz NASA can't spend that much money every day so that's all it isas came around hung it off the edge of the Earth in a little bag and you can't find it because you think the Earth's round but yeah no it just it just makes no sense these people are just you can't talk to them can't explain and they get all their information from YouTube videos yeah and then they all just talk to each other and a lot of is just they
misunderstand science yeah and not just science they Mis understand mathematics like I've I've heard because I've I've looked into this now to try to and honestly I feel Dumber for having done so but uh but isn't it fascinating well it's it's fascinating that it these people have clearly just never said this out loud in mixed company because it's it's all well and good to turn on your webcam and go okay my um my bedroom window is exactly 8 m away from the lighthouse down at the beach in this town that's near me and the rate that the Earth your circumference of the earth divided by the amount of miles should mean that that is x amount [ __ ] meters below me then why can I see the lighthouse refraction and it's like
dude I don't even know where to start poking holes in what you just said like right as soon as you make an a a YouTube video that people can start interrupting you know what I mean yeah yeah then this is going to fall apart but yet the thing the problem is you can't try to R reason with these people no I've listened to there's there's a podcast called uh Adventures down the rabbit hole I think hosted by Mick West which I listen to it's quite it's good he but he um he has a lot of conspiracy people on and he did have I think she was a flat earther on once but she wasn't on to talk about that and when he tried to talk to her about it she basically said I'm not interested in discussing that with you and he was like oh but but blah and
she's like yeah well I don't really want to discuss that and it was just like [ __ ] closed then yeah like he was like oh what about this what about this and she's like yeah I don't want to talk about that you're being very negative like okay you will find you will also find a lot of people who believe in Flat Earth also believe in a lot of other conspiracy cuz everyone's out to get them it's think if you're a conspiracy theor or y realist as I've heard people say now um you either believe in it in all of it or none of it and it's like well can't we believe that MK Ultra was real because you can totally understand why the American government didn't want us to think they drugged people for scientific testing and we found out later that it was like like that's a
little different from we've got an alien in Roswell yes yeah hey look they tried to tr try tried to train psychic [ __ ] soldiers didn't work but they did try to do that they did they spent money on that because they heard the Russians were spending money on it so why not give it a go that's what the men who ster goats is about so funny I was watching a um I we just watching some Neil degrass Tyson on YouTube the other day oh yeah and somebody was asking him uh you know just bating him and just said did we fake the the moonlanding and he just got so animated and was like it would be it is easier to send people to the Moon than it would have been to fake The Landing least you didn't just punch him in the face like Buzz Aldren did good but I will recommend a person
I've been watching who's sort of debunking the Flat Earth and other conspiracies is siman Dan his channel on YouTube it's actually quite good all right so all right send us a link you promise me and Dan and your wife Hannah that you don't think not a flat all right good good now promise I'm not a FL while we're here while we're getting promises are you a Scientologist no I am not such on a list long pause there you mean they mailing list you're on I'm on their M list they just s recently going hey just checking in of people who are I'm too lazy to become a Scientologist I think perhaps you're too lazy to tell these people you're not a Scientologist did you tell them that you barking up the wrong tree mate I do not
I'm not I'm not going to do you any favors want Friday I get home from work come off see you on Monday yeah I honestly I am the worst cult member unless your cult involves playing Xbox games in which case I might I might be of used to you but yeah You' got to do all you you got to do homework and read books and give them money and all this stuff who can be bothered there's a three things that I don't do you got to wear pants yeah I don't don't do that no I'm pretty sure there's Cults where you don't have to wear pants yeah there's a different Cults I think the Manson family was one of those Cults mhm maybe you'd be interested in those guys Luke they still around uh sort of yeah
he in a way yeah he does have a lot of uh I guess groupies would be the right word well you remember the the the woman who wanted to marry him so that she could have his corpse when he died that was a so yeah I'd say they are still around okay do they have homework I think their homework is smoking a bunch of weed and [ __ ] yeah see I don't do homework you don't do weed no mhm not for me what's your stance on murdering celebrities also sounds like a lot of effort 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 item to receive episodes automatically we'll see you next time
