Luke doesn't do well oh you just didn't participate in that one yeah so um remember there's this game that used to went on and on and on about called disco elium I do I I vaguely remember that yeah listeners probably may get a little maybe memory there somewhere well remember it came out on the Xbox and there's now achievements I do remember I purchased it the day it came out mhm okay and they done nothing because I know Dan wanted to see me play it this is a weird update I did want to watch you play it just wanted to remind you that I've not played it what's the opposite of an update so I finally set up my new computer and I've set it up so I will start streaming and I can save a copy of me playing disco elesium for you
fabulous although I'm also more than happy to just watch it live as it happens well this Thursday all right it's happening what time I don't know what it's going to be Australian eastern daylight savings time all right that means well finally something's going to happen while I'm awake I mean I'll be at work but I'll awake yes I'll be asleep oh no you probably won't be oh all right cuz it'll probably be yeah it'll be evening for you no you won't be cuz you'll be watching me yeah you won't be able to take your eyes off me or ready to C wh it up now I've got my Ginger [ __ ] ready to go oh God she's here y she's going to be a star God damn it it's her twitch Channel not yours Joe
Exotic of queenan I finally logged on to the multiple nasm Twitch account which I haven't looked at for a very long time and it's going to be interesting oh yeah anything interesting going on oh yeah I suppose I should figure out how to watch that I've never watched a twitch before it's really funny it just goes up you got a couple of followers like got followers like four years ago when I did something then we never did anything again oh that's weird so when you when you do stuff on there people will follow it but if you don't if you abandon it for 4 years you don't get people just stop following weird is that why people don't watch our videos because we haven't made any in several years or follow our Twitter account or although update I've been
doing tweets you've been doing You' doing amazing I've been replying if You' been noticing and liking I have noticed that Luke yeah y yeah so if you're interested in watching Luke and I talk to each other head over to twitter.com nerdgasm I once again signed up for Twitter um because I thought I was missing out and then haven't gone on there so don't expect any engagement from me the slight problem I have with Twitter at the moment is it'll give me suggestions hey you might like to look at this picture of tit the type of that's pretty much what I'm getting and I thought I can't open this at work that's Instagram oh is obsessed with with tits uh or at least it thinks I am pretty sure it just goes off your history doesn't it yeah I mean maybe well that's what that's what they
say but I'm not looking I don't get tits on Instagram I just get what happens is what happens actually andd was a bit on this where what Instagram I think does is if you go into the little search window and it shows you like you know a mix of stuff that you might be interested in if you click on one chick that's all it's going to show you yeah you click on a PA of tits Instagram's like we got him yeah m is all 8s Lego when I go into that see that's big mixture of everything but some there sometimes I like I I'll see a cosplay I really like and so yeah that leads you down the dark hole very quickly Instagram doesn't know the difference between cosplay and neither do Luke s follow my only fans no but it it it does like go all in
as soon as you click on something cuz I you know I got into Vikings for a bit and I must have looked up something to do with Viking I was probably looking up like Viking beard styles or something like that M and then now my Instagram search feed is just a bunch of Viking spoilers so great oh no yeah well I mean it's historical fiction right so yeah yeah fair but I it's like oh here you know it's it's it's uh Beyond iron side some battle and I'm like I haven't seen that yet stop showing me it mhm I just laugh when I'll go on and I'll click on a photo and he goes oh I'm posting this no I'm Shadow bandn again I'm sort of like i f you on the for you page like you're not banned oh Shadow Banning garbage yeah this photo didn't get enough likes so I must be Shadow banned
no maybe they just didn't like the photo maybe that's the thing where bad at too kids delete photos on Instagram if they don't get enough likes within 5 minutes whereas mine it's there for life if I know we just wouldn't have any on there cuz I'd forget immediately to post another one well I actually saw a tweet from my Mark Hamill today he posted uh put up something of a photo of him Mark U not him Mark put up Mark Carrie and Harrison and goes like I like this one more cuz this crop shows make look like I'm taller but he said I've added this as its own tweet because someone the reply I put this to they deleted the original tweet so it's gone oh okay if I had Mark H reply to a tweet that's living forever now this might be a dumb old man ly question but if you delete a
tweet because it didn't get enough likes doesn't that guarantee you won't get any more likes on that tweet yeah but and that one I don't am I missing something here what what people think is if it doesn't get enough likes quickly enough then it probably won't cuz Moor engagement is in very quickly right I don't know about Twitter but Instagram don't even count your likes anymore they just say it was liked by this and other people now they still delete photos all the time yeah I know I know just from I mean family members who are younger who I know what they do is cuz I've been like oh really that seems like it's [ __ ] annoying but what they'll do is they'll wait for the correct time when they know the most people are likely to see a photo they
will only post photos at that time and if the photo doesn't get enough likes or like momentum within the first you know hour they'll delete it because they think well it's not going to which also makes no sense because you feed doesn't show in order that they're posted anyway that's what I mean and not only that but like how do I know how many friend don't be getting alerts well I don't get alerts on yours it's not about people seeing the likes out it's about that person getting that Rush of seeing so many likes themselves I don't get it we we suck us welcome to this week's episode of old men social media gasm yeah old men don't what's a tweet the my birds come into my house telling me how do I watch Twitch seriously how do I watch Twitch you go
to twitch.tv and then you go for/ multiple nasm all right well I'll be doing that this Thursday Australian eastern daylight saving time what time we don't know don't know what time yet but it will be a sh e Daylight Savings Time none of these other actually it's going to be GMT I've gone back to my original oh we're going to do it GMT I was going to say your money where your mouth is be the be the twitch streamer you want to see in the world yep I still don't know what type of that'll be but no no one does your stupid plan no I'm looking forward to watching you play Disco elesium um I've played it through several times and enjoyed it each and every time and I have a feeling I'll enjoy it just as much watching you play
oh really I don't know what cheap and S I'm not I'm just going to play through it like I would I'll tell you this right now Luke even if you knew what they were you wouldn't know how to get them yeah okay A friend asked me the other day if I could recommend some twitch uh twitch switch games and uh and I was thinking for a bit and then I realized disco elium is a is a switch game now so I recommended that and I think this person in particular well like it quite a lot so well look I think I'm in a better chance of liking it now than I would have on the original PC version because there was a lot of reading then completely voice voice you know abstract cont I don't read but you won't get the original Kuno and I do think there's something a little sad about that good
point [ __ ] does Kuno care to be to be clear it's the same voice actor they've just asked him to tone it down and re-record because they were like full voice acting he's pretty annoying that if you do him the the old way yeah mhm it was fine for a few things but not everything yeah cuz mostly you were just reading text on screen and occasionally hear [ __ ] does a k care amazing amazing game well I'll see I'll let you know if it is can I uh this is not a bit uh this is just a little little beef that I've got a little pet peef got a what have I done voiceover actors reading audio books that are required to sing a line from a song and don't bother
to find out the tune of said song how is this coming up I've just noticed it once or twice that you know sometimes in a book it'll say she switched on Nirvana and then it'll be like you know and if you're reading in a book it'll just be a line of text here we are now entertainers right yeah okay you went there um but uh I went with when you're reading an audio book you got to sing that line so all the audio books I listen to I have the people doing Star Wars voices so I don't understand MH do they do the voices even when they're singing NaNa songs you got the one when Yoda sings the ones I've read it's like entertain us you will who does all the voices yeah right and it makes it interesting but then I was listening to the X-Wing novels and then
there was a new X-Wing novel that came out and they had a different person doing it I went no can't listen to it mhm it's not doesn't sound the same I think we before but listened to uh I think it was the Martian the first time I I read the Martian was on a audible uh back in the day and read by an actual Martian no read by a guy who did all the accents as well and some of them I was like is he allowed to do that oh yeah you're not allowed to do that one I was like is it different for audio books how come he's allowed to do that so yeah I just wondered is that because that seems no I've come across one or two of them if they want to speak H or anything sure hes hes yeah Ewok no I just I was like
oh that's a bit cheeky they no Trade Federation diplomats yes yep yeah I do like a good audio book although uh i' there's this trend recently which is fine if I know about it but there's a trend where they kind of just act out the story and I know um Ohama been been you know trying to get me to get this new edition of Dune on there and I was like no I'm reading that with my eyes uh so I don't I don't you know I don't know for some reason some books I'm like no my eyes are up here sometimes I don't yeah no there's some there's a couple of really great examples of that the
Sandman um dramatization is amazing also the neverware one that they've got on there cuz it has to be done like that cuz there is no a radio play sometimes it's unclear that's what they're doing if I see more than one narrator yeah that's the only way you could tell I think on some of them which is annoying cuz it's like it's to me that's not an audio book that's a radio play kind of yeah and this isn't isn't the 1920s yeah sometimes I'm in the mood for that but usually I'm not very rarely no I would agree with that might go back and listen to the Star Wars radio dramatization it's been a while there is a pretty good Dune uh audio book that isn't a radio drama per se it has a nror but each character is voiced by a
different cast member oh okay and that's that's okay that's probably fine yeah because actually there's a there's quite a lot of just flat dialogue in the Dune novel yeah right all of it cover to [Laughter] cover did watch I thought about reading the first couple but I thought about reading now you can just watch the film I can in like two weeks two weeks I'm going to the movies and I will see it yeah I went to the movies yesterday what did you see I saw a James Bond movie oh did you yes I did did it h really have to wait what was it two years to go to the movies could it could it have just skipped that uh absolutely could have look I enjoyed going to the movies I enjoyed getting my buttered popcorn and my large
Coke popcorn right yeah I enjoyed watching 30 minutes of commercials for local businesses um this is a very good movie time will tell if it's a good James Bond movie I'm going to have to watch it again before I can answer that question okay it's out on uh streaming services uh I think if you pay for it this week so might might I might check it out this week it's worth your money and your time yeah okay I mean I've been hanging to see it because just because of all the fuss so don't read anything about it just go and see it it's going to divide audiences and in fact it already has I've I've read some reviews that are praising it as the best Bond film ever made and one's saying it was utterly
disappointing so don't sort of update the phones and things didn't they yes like just to make everything look like a little bit newer cuz they couldn't have him holding because product placement yeah because they literally get paid to have product placement and I'm assuming their contracts have something to do with the fact that it's got to be the like why would we wouldn't want you promoting that phone anymore do we so well I re I no I reckon they probably went back and got more money oh you think no I am well you might be right but I think contractually it's like you know what the contract would have been well we've got the movie but we're not going to release it due to this this this we can release it with your thing or if you float us an extra 100,000
we'll put your new one in yeah maybe I yeah yeah I should work in Hollywood it's called extortion but sure I going to say yeah maybe I shouldn't work in Hollywood the phone he's holding has got a picture of your wife up on the screen I mean if you don't want us to show that yeah yeah so I'll be going to the movies the next 3 weeks oh wow I'm going to see the eternals tomorrow oh yeah I'm so Keen to hear your review on that tune in next week I will then be going Ghostbusters yeah we will will probably I was talking to our list out next week the 19th see did you see the new trailer containing the voice but not the face of Bill Murray just to be a real tease I've seen that uh oh what's what's the director's name Jason rman rman yeah evidently he's getting a bit of flack on
Twitter about sort of him directing the reboot being a tease about being a bigger tease than my [ __ ] year 12 formal date oh some people were sort of saying like cuz his dad was there that's the reason he got the job so like he's been a director for quite some time hasn't he it's not like it's his first job I mean he's made some pretty successful films yeah yeah that's why I just think it's a bit weird that people are sort of jumping on and going that's how Hollywood works yeah that's how every industry works yeah but yeah it's not like it's it's his first outing and he gets his huge thing and he's not done anything else he's been around for many many years Ian rman is an old man his son is an old man yeah I not only that they let somebody else do one right and look what
happen what we got that could have been good if they didn't try to make it a slapstick comedy yeah but they they got the director of other slapstick comedies to do it they didn't try [Laughter] [Laughter] letters look like they sound yeah I've been saying it that way in my head since I was a kid know and then because when I was watching it I was like am I the only one who says har Conan definitely not they say haran in the Lynch film I think do they even I know what is that right yeah yeah I bet they do do you know what's funny though is a lot of people who are new to Dune and they're like we take this for granted because I
mean the books were around are there many people that are new to it I think a lot of people are seeing this movie with no knowledge of the books I think they know that it's a very popular book but they don't know anything about it they they haven't read this thousand page toone yeah um with the weird cover art you know retro futurism cover art that their dad had on the show a kid that particular copy of Dune the one with the it's got the moon on with the kind of red ha yeah love it love it absolutely cover Art's not going to be around anymore it's all going to be it's yes Timothy sham yeah absolutely even the even the June subreddit which I've been on for years is now the film poster and it's so disappointing um but a lot of people are saying why the [ __ ] do we have all of
these great madeup sci-fi fantasy words for things and the lead character's name is Paul yeah well well because this is just a personal feeling I think it's you still got to try and make it relatable to the reader and having weird name for people can make it harder ago odd how long ago was this written yeah in the 60s so yeah yeah is that 60 years ago yeah most sized five books back then people did have normal names yeah but they weren't pop yeah yeah that's what I'm saying like if if you have you have weird things like weird planets weird aliens but people are just people although everybody else does have a funny name righto everyone else oh was Jessica Jessica's fairly normal
Duncan yeah okay yeah you're right like I'm not saying and I'm not saying like every name needs to be a normal name it's you still have no it does seem quite arbitrary about which ones he decides to make really common and which ones to yeah be completely made up I think some of them just started as a typo and he just went with although I guess yeah cuz the atres are the are fairly normal men but then their Associates get a little bit weirder isn't that who wrote The Hunger Games uh they just pick normal names but then spell them strangely it's like no it's not Peter it's Peter it's no name Katniss that's not a normal name is it no but she her last name is everine which is like did you mean to write Evergreen and then you just changed it at the last
minute that's how you write Dan you write a name and then you swap some letters around yeah that's right that's and now you're original and now you're a novelist you keep doing it until you have a novel yeah yeah right keep writing words that haven't been written yet getting them in the right order that's the trick that's the trick um but they are they are supposedly descendants of us right the house of Trades can be traced back to the to the Romans apparently right if you dive deep into the mythology that just say like a lot more reading I think you could do quite a lot of reading if you did want to in in the dune you certainly can has so and everything would still be Canon out there's no reset or
anything yeah it's coming one day I mean this this I mean this film doesn't change anything in particular really yet I don't mean now but I mean given it another 10 years now cuz you you've seen recar the comics yep that happens all the time but you've seen it now in Star Trek and Star Wars which was two sort of big Staples so if this takes off like it's meant to be with them filming a second one and but even George Lucas start shooting in July 2022 yeah I'm excited George Lucas even had a problem with what was Canon and what wasn't Canon back in the day you know if people asked him even from 77 to 78 he made changes yeah but I mean even when there was extended Universe like when the novels came out don't you like if anyone made the mistake of asking about stuff that happened in the
novels he was like no [ __ ] idea mate except he did have some input about some of the characters so he didn't know he gritted about all of them but he they wanted at one stage to make Anakin turn to the dark side so Anakin as in um Han and Le's third child oh right sure and he went no because that'll be confusing for the prequels so you can make Jason turn to the dark side again Jason VES Jason is Jason VES in Star Wars yeah turn to the dark side yeah Jason it's his origin story The Jason and J were the twins of P layer and Jason turned to the dark side and yeah yeah Jason Paul what are names what are these weird words you're saying to me I watched a great interview with George Lucas
recently where he kind of admitted what I think is the truth about how he wrote the first Star Wars because you know how he always says he wrote Three Star Wars screenplays then Shel two and only made the first one and we're like I really don't think you did that no he said that but slightly differently to is it Pier Morgan is that the American I don't know if he's 6 minutes or whatever he is but um he said he wrote three and then when they gave him the green light to do one he was like well just the first part wouldn't make sense so Star Wars A New Hope is the first half of the first movie and the second half of the last movie right so in other words in his original trilogy in quotes Obi-Wan didn't die till the end of the second movie the Death Star
didn't get blown up till the end of the third movie but he just crammed all of that into one single movie and then when he had to make Empire he was like oh [ __ ] I've used up all my ideas well remember at the end of a new hope that sort of didn't really end on a what are they going to do like we don't have to rescue anyone it's like Dar V is still there but he's just floting around in space really like but also Darth wasn't really the baddy in that Tarkin was the bad that yeah I also call sort of [ __ ] in what George is saying now because I do remember cuz I used to read a lot when I was younger and I remember reading seeing interviews where the original script was no humans it was all droids and then the the the what here now is oh it was originally going to be
Star Killer it was always going to be luke but no the original one was about there were no humans M yeah his original there was one draft where it was set in the year 3000 on Earth and there were dragons yeah so I call [ __ ] yeah I the truth is probably somewhere in there he remember cuz he's he had to tell the story so many times I know that's the problem yeah he does he anymore he's quite old it's only because we keep asking him yeah he must be [ __ ] sick of it let's get him on the show like he sold it and we're still go back to you William sh on oh he doesn't do podcasts speaking of people who eat money um elong musk is now the richest person in
history even yeah adjusted for inflation so Kings of old is richer than anyone who's ever lived was it it was a he and Jeff Bezos were having like a back and forth back he can buy and sell Jeff Bezos now his his deal that he just did with Herz is it hurts that he just did that big Fleet deal with has rocketed him every else real money or is that just like well no he's been selling off billions of shares setting the price of those shares too by [ __ ] putting it out there to his Twitter followers how much how much of this company should I sell off he's [ __ ] weird but it's sort of weird like at that stage money means nothing to you yeah sure I think for a
long time it probably hasn't mattered that much to him well could you sort of are they living in a small house he so all his properties and stuff yeah yeah although they broke up now he's not living hard so I don't know maybe he's going to change his he'll go back to being luxurious or whatever I don't know how much influence she had over his I also say like why he was living in a small place when he's got her and a kid and his other family also have we seen this place how small is it I live in a small place yeah but you didn't downsize from a mansion several Mansions just to go several Mansions also it's a small place in Texas and I don't think a small place in Texas small stand yeah
yeah nothing it's a small American Place y we're like a big here places that is M and dicks yeah that's that's the modotto of America M yeah cuz someone was talking about uh oh there was a fun tweet was like someone's math obviously didn't work it was like if Jeff Bezos has1 billion and there are like 10 billion people in the world why can't he give everybody a dollar and and then he's still got a bunch of money left and then it was like hang on a minute he doesn't have 100 billion even if he did do that getting a dollar yeah there were several that that's not even correctly there was some math issue there as well but it was basically like even if you did get the maths correct if
he gave everybody a dollar no 100 billion World why can't he give everybody a billion dollars that was the thing it was like hang on yeah your math is way off there that's not how it works but also $100 billion would would then be worth nothing I think there's there's between seven and8 billion people but also there's not that much cash in the world exactly he doesn't have that much money he cash is not real anymore all the countries in the world just printed money of that value all the countries in the world just printed more money to get through Co pretty much so what I was going to say is if you're talking about King Ebert right just cuz he's on my mind because of as you are yeah he's my favorite I'm often thinking about kingt I know you I know you like you're a fan big
fan Robotnik he had no he's he was king of uh Mercier right King mer yeah yeah English king back in the day okay he literally had one fifth of England or whatever it was back then he had two two of the areas two regions of England and a whole bunch of golden [ __ ] he actually had the wealth Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk they have a number on a computer screen right well that's everyone they it's funny you to say that actually because Britain has been trying to return to the gold standard constantly every time they go here something I find funny yeah right this is something I see a lot in Americans and The Sovereign citizens mhm right that they do still put a lot of things into sort of putting all their
money into silver and gold and all that Luke's that doesn't have that hanging out with all these weirdos on the internet but that doesn't have that same value anymore yeah what does stamps a number on a computer means more than a piece of silver sure to me it does spend a number on a computer I know that piece of silver I can't do anything with do you accept gold balloons yeah what you should really be buying as nfts yeah that's the real money don't quite understand the Tarantino was releasing seven unreleased scenes from Pulp Fiction deleted scenes as nfts now and I don't know whether that means that only the people who own them can watch them or whether it's just what we always discuss about how anyone can
owns the original it might depend on the contract side of it or especially if they're unreleased deleted scenes and if they're unreleased they're probably not that good because yeah look at the world we live in Now You release everything especially for a movie that old but no I think it is just that you get the original and that's it Y and then they can still turn around and sell it on the next I saw a pretty compelling argument that crypto currently as it's being used and all this nft stuff it's just a big pyramid scheme and or Ponzi scheme and I was like H I'm not sure that's I'm not sure that's inaccurate at the moment yeah and and and it might be a very successful one will that eventually well it has to right Bitcoin can't just keep going up
did you see what happened with squid squid remember squid game how was a big thing so there was a squid crypto yep so this when out there people were buying it up they went up to a lot of money and then some of the places where you can buy and sell crypto were gone it's a bit weird we're not going to list this because there's no option to sell it oh people brought it and then the people just cashed it all out and went yep we're done well how do you cash it it well they could people who own it oh I see so they had their pile their they were able to sell it and then they walk away millions of dollars and it's now worthless there was one recent called monkey jizz right that
um that uh the creator of that made about 300K uh before basically just shutting it down announcing it was a scam and leaving with the cash mhm yeah but if you're buying monkey jizz I thought I was buying real jizz Dan I didn't know I mean a lot of people are seeing anything that comes up and they're trying to get it to the ground flooor yeah yeah that's the we Jed about Dogecoin it's a [ __ ] pyramid scheme that's exactly Howry multi-level marketing or whatever the someone who used to buy Bitcoin and they would trade like if it dropped o if it went over 300 they wouldn't buy it anymore like $300 it's now $60,000 cuz it's I don't know we have to do this not real I know but we talk
about Bitcoin is useless as a currency right now well it's not a currency it's an it's just a it's a share portfolio well it was supposed to be a currency I guess a lot places were starting a lot of places were starting to use I even saw places like well you buy a house using Bitcoin but now when it can drop 20% or grow 20% in a day but the problem was when it when it was when it was able to be used as a currency it was so [ __ ] worthless that you wouldn't use it as a currency yeah so weird just yeah the world is just passing Us by I know I'm not convinced anybody understands what's going on it's just kind of Just Happening and everyone's like yeah whatever
Bitcoin see what happens with that I guess I still think I owed one well go and get it one but I don't an entire Bitcoin yes well that's 7 grandish yeah one whole Bitcoin is I don't say just it's just one I only owned one no but I have no idea where or what email like I remember like at the very early stages I did something stupid and yeah but I have it's gone pro I mean maybe if it was in an online thing it probably is but yeah yeah tried looking into coinbase maybe it's on there I had to looked there no it's not there right what about coin purse one of them I use it when I go to Tokyo cuz I like coins in my balls yeah yes 50 billion
like coming up and stroking my beard happened a lot well that's where your balls are you're a ballchinian yep mhm so let's talk about something fun all right uh I didn't think this through oh you had something in mind or you didn't I I I just assumed I would look this this fun that's fun this is fun uh Fallout 76 we've talked about playing that a bit and we've not played it no however uh some people who are playing it have formed a theater company a virtual theater company and performed McBeth inside for 76 yeah wow they made a New Globe Theater I guess at some some venue some place know if it was any good you can you can do new builds in Fallout 76 right yeah yeah I guess
yeah built a new Globe Theater and they put on MC Beth and uh you can see some pictures here in the article you can watch the whole thing evidently I might do that oh yeah mcth life performance there you go and then they're putting on The Nutcracker at Christmas nut that's great I love it they went straight for [ __ ] MC Beth and now they're going okay now Nutcracker I I would love to be able to play with people online like this you to have a lot of free time yeah you can you could just go join a theater company and perform MC Beth that's the other option if you wanted to do it you know I'd have to learn lines well I mean it's m Beth it's it's like you probably know half the lines anyway just from Zeitgeist and that's not the way I
that's not the way I do performances you know I'll change the line each time I do it it's not how Shakespeare works though really well I don't believe he wrote it Shakespeare was just like all right here's the theme let's go y you guys are from Saturday Night Live so just thanks for coming down to the Globe Theater this weekend can I get a location from the audience that's right live from the Globe Theater it's Saturday night you can't prove it's not how it happened I'm your host Billy Shakespeare Dain okay I hear Dain all right um I need a forest that could come towards a Castle burnam Wood thank you I hear burnam wood um you're wrong Luke Shakespeare did right M Beth but um uncontroversially we
have no idea what about a third of the actual original play was because this is the shortest of Shakespeare's plays and they're pretty certain this is not the whole thing well they're also pretty certain that people would just go and watch the play write it down and go perform it themselves yeah they don't know which script they got is his or a copy yeah or he would just write out individual actors lines on pieces of paper rather than writing out one whole thing yep and they just cobbled it together from that that's how it'll be in the future when they discover you know the script for the Marvel movies they get a redacted version from like Tom Holland and it's only the Spider-Man bits but lines missing cuz he's an idiot he tells everybody what's going to
happen he spoiled something the other day oh god of course he did oh he's no actually he's he's I thought he's been very clear that there's no other Spider-Man oh yeah well he's lying about that he also he was talking about the new movie in an interview and he said oh you got these you know professionals like Alfred and Jamie and people are like well that confirms Jamie Fox is in it doesn't it I don't think he was supposed to say that we know Alfred Molina was in it but just confirmed Jamie Fox is in it so interesting why did I let him go talk to part of his contract next time it's like until the movie is released you're not allowed to leave this boundary I love that range that that YouTube clip where it's just all the times Benedict
Cumberbatch was like telling him to shut up in interviews yeah shut up there's a great image here of um sorry just to bring it back of yeah sorry the rehearsals for The Nutcracker if you scroll all the way down but there's also a great video just attached to this article about a guy who also tried to um uh do Shakespeare within a game and he tried to um perform Hamlet inside D GTA and was just constantly murdered yeah which is a major theme of Hamlet so actually it's on brand I wanted to ask this is not in the spreadsheet but I wanted to ask Luke are you the more you're most likely to have have played this have you played the new GTA uh yes
I'm playing three at the moment so I'm going to finish three I've seen some photos or screenshots and I'm confused apparently they look like [ __ ] yeah um they are not they are not like fullon remasters so it's not like watching Halo and going to Halo remastered or anything like that it is I the install sizes is what I looked at so I was expecting if it was going to be like a full-on remaster you expect at least 20 gig 20 30 gig per game yeah uh GTA 3 is 5 gig right right Vice City is 10 and then I think San Andreas goes up to about 15 or 20 but yeah they're not that it does look it looks like you remember it looking is how I explain it this is like this is a full price game isn't it it's a full price for three full games yeah but still $100 for three
games where I'll tell you one thing though Grand Theft all 3 it is not forgiving it's not like playing today where it's oh I died and then I'll go back to the checkpoint that was like 30 seconds ago it's no you have to go and restart the entire Mission from the start yeah know I do remember that about GTA 3 yeah and you always got to save because if you get killed by the cops they take all of your weapons right I'm looking forward to playing Vice just like real life Vice City is the one I've got a real soft spot for San Andreas is arguably a better game much better but but I didn't like the character as much as Vice City I love Vice City yeah yeah that's that's what I'm looking forward to but I want to finishing play through three
first but yeah it's it's weird going back to it cuz I do remember playing it back in the day and I do remember there's one Mission I actually had to cheat so I could finish it oh oh in three because in three there was this one mission that the second you did something dropped something off or picked someone up you had all these people come to kill you and you could not get away like it's they just destroyed you so I remember having to drop in a tank or something so I couldn't be killed remember I play I will finish PC used to go play it with Dave MH although I don't I mean I guess just watch Dave play it is it what I mean by that yeah yeah I did a fair bit of
that but no it's it's it's not just B I think people were just upset when they were thinking like it's a fullon remaster yeah yeah cuz I've seen well I've seen screenshots and some of the stuff looks weird like it's got smoothing on the characters I actually I I couldn't tell which one I I saw some side by side and had to really squint to figure out which one they were saying was the updated one the thing that I love is they fixed up the controls oh okay cuz you you were able to get San Andreas on the um 360 they theyed that because they got the remaster out but I had that and playing that was just hard like it felt like you're a tank didn't feel natural to move but that's what I focus again you just said you wanted to be a
tank no but I didn't want to control like a tank when I'm trying to just ride a bike you need to be clear about this Luke but they have they have fixed up the controls which is what I like and there's achievements most important part yeah that's worth 100 bucks yep I've got a lot of games I spent 100 bucks on that I haven't played I need to start doing that so do I got a little crazy at the moment Skyrim anniversary edition's out I know I am not getting it I've restarted Skyrim oh wow yeah just restarted buy it for a third time no no I mean I got it yeah really yeah I mean it's not like a full price game I I think it was like $10 oh oh okay yep you got okay yeah you can buy the game or you can get the upgrade for I already have the Xbox version I've
got five copies of the [ __ ] game so so Dan be careful there's two versions you can buy in the store one you Reby the game or there's the I think it's about $20 and in Australia or 25 and it's the upgrade okay okay now there is some new content in this too yeah it's got survival mode it's got uh some new quests and stuff it's got fishing you can fish in the game now I do not have time to put on a game and then just sit there and leisurely fish fish you used to fishing is fun in games you used to be that as it may yeah I definitely used to yeah I mean I'm probably not I I've restarted I've gotten out of you know that start area and I'm on my way to was it Riverwood with uh White Run White Run yeah oh no river is said first H oh the one that you just yeah right okay wow
family so I'm I'm just at the start of the game and not I don't know I'll probably forget about it and that'll be it but uh Xbox series X updated so the frame rate looks does it look different yeah it does it it's very smooth compared smooth motion or smooth Graphics like Smooth frame rate's High same you know I said they released that Assassin's Creed Odyssey update and I was like oh my God it looks even better now so yeah cuz you could get some pretty good mods for Skyrim like a couple of years ago like enhanced weather a lot of mods as well yeah you you could put tits on anything in that game this point mud crabs well I mean I've mentioned it on this podcast before but my second
playthrough of Skyrim I played for longer than my first playthrough and didn't do a single Story Mission yeah I've never easy to do in that game I accidentally finished a story yes last time I played through the second time because I wasn't that I I forgot what the story was and then I was just up about I killed a dragon and went hey you won sort of thing oh cool I just the second time I went in there I just met a met a woman built a house raised some kids you know I just lived my life in Skyrim very easy to get distractors in that game that's the idea that's why we need the next one not just re-releasing the same one again yes well they said there will be a next one but don't hold your breath no we're a few years away
which is not a bad thing because you don't want something like a Skyrim or the new Grand Theft Auto or anything like that at the beginning of the generation oh yeah do you remember Grand Theft Auto 4 compared to Grand Theft auto5 on the 360 they are worlds apart and then Red Dead Redemption 2 yeah like that came out oh wait no that came out yeah at the end of the Xbox One cycle right and it like looks insane compared to Xbox One games yeah so yeah you just yeah you don't want to but you also you don't want to wait 10 years so yeah but it's been 10 years well speaking of next games in the series next Mass Effect game's going to have gu in it I guess because they put up a picture of what looks like a GU it's Crash but it looks
like a GU looks like they going to take off after three so it's going to be it will actually be Mass Effect 4 what they tried with Andromeda yeah cuz the end of the game so they're going to have to make one of the story lines Cannon which is going to upset people well yeah or they'll do what uh DSX did and it just like no matter what you picked something else happened as well and it's just like it actually doesn't matter what you picked your choice had no bearing on anything in the end you know it's funny those games I mean it's it's been many many years since I've known how to pronounce the phrase dayx but that game is still just Dux to me Dux yeah cuz when it came out that's
just how we assumed it was pronounced dox I want the next one of that thanks I keep wanting to play I keep going through to play one of them and cuz I haven't finished any of the last two games or play much of them because I tried to do the stupid playthrough without killing anyone oh yeah and I always start them like that I know we've talked about this before I start like that and then and then one person sees you now you everyone you know is dead that's right if you had it just turned away all of your friends would get to hope you're happy I have to do this now now everybody has to die that's how I played Dishonored mhm I try to do the right thing but that's why I love the Red Dead games if you murder people then you go on high
alert until you murder the only people that saw you and then yeah you go back to just being cool I'm sort of starting to feel bad for some of these cuz they're just doing their job yeah like I'm I'm a cop wandering the street you're out after curfew come here and then I get murdered for it like it's yeah it's hard it's tough being a cop I own a shop and this cost this price I get murdered and you take it like it's just trying to survive and do their job or any green skin in Fallout when Dave is playing some or you're just there minding your own business some guy walks in and tries to steal an apple then you've got to murder him you'll pay for that he accidentally stole an apple what's this apple as he picks it up I'll kill
you you can have it back it's an accident the Apple next to it I could take but that Apple things escalate pretty quickly in Skyrim mhm I do remember I accidentally stole something uh in Fallout 3 in Megaton and the entire town turned against me instantly it's like how do you people know yeah that's a god it's stole a pen get him yeah because you don't know CU you're inside a house just looking at things and then you accidentally pick something up that's red and then you go outside and everyone's just shooting at you and it's hard cuz sometimes it's not every single item that's in there it might just be one or two particular items but I do like those games way cuz if you do kill everyone they are dead
it's not like you go back to megaton and the towns respawn it's no they're all laying where you murdered them you can n want nuke them yeah we've got geek of the week this week oh yeah oh and I know at least one of these is going to be contentious and I I mean I'm not even sure I should be putting it Forward at this point but uh I do want to bring up that first of all rich low tax kayka has died founder of something awful.com which huge part of the history of the internet and also uh our early lives on the internet M Mak sense he and so yeah geek of the week what do you think Luke
I need to go into the details I guess on that one oh how how did he die H he uh he he killed himself because he uh he was apparently abusing his wife and the judge ruled against him in the divorce settlement and he's now basically ensured that she's going to get stuck with the attorney fees and uh and and yeah so so he was really just a dick apparently apparently yeah uh is there anyone else I mean there is there's Dean Stockwell you know him he probably a dick as well though right uh no from all accounts he was a lovely man oh no I think from what I've seen cuz he's been in a lot of
shows I liked yeah yeah battar Battle Star well I grew up watching Quantum Leap Quantum Leap he was in Dune he was in the original June yeah yeah so I'm sorry if it's a choice between those two um Stockwell found something awful.com no but I probably see more of what D did than what oh you haven't seen Doom house haven't here and it's sequels yeah no I haven't oh Doom house this figurine oh man yeah oh okay so so tough call I guess lowex did a lot of stuff that
wasn't abusing his family and he did we can remember him for that earlier in life I think I think later in life he he he sold something off of last year when all this uh you know domestic abuse stuff came out and uh and he's kind of not had much to do with it since I don't think and and I mean it's all very horrible unfortunate and uh I kind of wish I didn't know to be honest although I mean that's not a good attitude to have I suppose but it just kind of like sours the whole thing now uh that sucks what what sort of scares me he's still young 45 45 yeah yeah yeah I know 20 years ago that was old to us but now we're there that's that's that's young yeah well I mean when kill yourself it doesn't really matter what
age you are and in fact the older that people are when they kill themselves the the scarier it is for me you know yeah there yeah the fact that um like uh see I was going the other way normally because of like uh oh like young people no no more like Terry Prat when oh sure like yeah when causes luk yes wink wink for insurance purposes yeah no the a documentary he did about it all more like um Robin Williams you know right that like he he put up with whatever depression he had for 60 odd years and then couldn't take it anymore yeah who was that sorry Robin William Williams well no it wasn't actually quite that yeah I know
that other disease that sort of was making him see I've also heard that that is not so true as well so I don't know what to think about that didn't his daughter say that's not true yeah there there there is some controversy about Zelda yes yeah she said no that there's nothing more to I know people want to believe that there was something else but he was just depressed see I'd like I mean I want to think lowex I mean obviously was not well uh for various various things point to that and I want to think that he didn't do this to screw them over cuz that's horrible I think probably he just didn't think about it and he was clearly you know upset by what had happened and and then that's why he's done this and it's horrible and but but
he has actually really [ __ ] screwed them over now and so it's just ah [ __ ] I think he's been screwing them over for a lot longer than just that's what I mean yeah I think he's obviously not he's not a well person unfortunately yeah clearly I did really I watched that fragm clip that you shared yes um yeah that was that was upsetting cuz they were obviously different side to him yeah yeah frag frags was upset obviously they've been friends for a long time yeah all right so get a week fine so all right Dean Stockwell celebrating at the crossroads Dean Dean stockwell's got it by default not by default I probably would have given it to him anyway okay just you do I've got more enjoyment out of
watching him I mean Matt if you need a reason to back this he was in two episodes of Columbo as as as two two separate characters L's criteria is which one of these two people has brought more joy to his life I got to go with low tax to be honest because something awful was like mhm you know memes come from there that's right on the force.net yeah that's fair counting down.com but if we're going on quality of character I think Dean stock well probably probably wins yeah and I hope we don't hear about anything terrible later oh yeah Dean Stockwell also abused low tax's wife how did he die he was 70 but how did he die 70 is sort of still not I
know I was about to say although he was 85 oh sorry yeah beloved pres in film and television for over 70 years so I just assumed when he was Dean stock well the new New York Times article says Dean Dean Stockwell child actor dies well sure child actor perhaps in the 50s [Music] yep he was in [ __ ] everything wasn't he yeah he's just got that when when you see a picture of him I'm like yes that guy he's just in everything yeah anything I couldn't even pick what he was in if I didn't have I had to stop and think about it like what what was he in oh it's still everything yeah still
everything and even if you start going okay Battle Star yeah Dr UI okay sure like there are some key they were only small parts of his career velvet he's in right blue velvet yeah he was the voice of Prince Charming in Snow White and the Seven dos wait from 1938 and most importantly Columbo so yeah twice and of course Quantum Leap he'd had a stroke in the mid 2015s so it's probably okay yeah the mid 2015s that's what mid 2015s that's literally what it says out of all the 2015s it was one of the middle [Laughter] ones all right so Dean Stockwell geek of the week we I do love this quote though after a few years off he tried returned to
acting own to learn that his time away from Hollywood had led casting agents to forget him in a casting he even heard one casting agent say we need a Dean Stockwell type and he's just he just couldn't pull it off no well Charlie Chaplain once entered a Charles Charlie Chaplain look like com why can't second it came third a third great Adolf Hitler first place that's right yeah and that baby from afterlife second MH speaking of Hitlers and the
Hitlers of the world Alec Baldwin God sued yeah how is it oh we knew this was coming yeah the lawsuits have started sued by the gas cuz he's a producer so I mean the article the headline is a little yeah they knew what they were doing he's B yeah exactly he's not they're not suing Alec Baldin right they're just suing the production which one of the producers happens to be Alec Baldwin right yeah that's right and the lawsuits were always going to be happening with this like it's not a but this isn't I mean this isn't a victim suing I me I think you've got some [ __ ] nerve suing if you're just a random crew member at this point you know what I mean like oh I'm sorry did you get
[ __ ] shot and killed no then shut up well what are they suing for were they there did they see it are they they uh suing over negligence uh to do with the fact that the gun went off I yeah I what's the impact I think the impact of him was that he was working on an unsafe set yeah he could have been shot I mean that's true but but it's true but you're not so I but that's what I mean that's yeah you can't be the first one to fall suit maybe after the Suits start getting paid off then you go well also I had some trauma I could understand if like I was there I actually saw it it was well he would have seen it he was the Gaff he was probably standing right
next to her well then yeah so I could probably see it coming but it's also a bit weird being the first one still yeah that's what I think too yeah also we've been saying this happen in Mexico it happened in New Mexico which as far as I know is in the United States it's still Mexico Dan it's in the name it's a type of Mexico was it in New Mexico there you go I honestly I thought this was in Mexico as well so did I I swear that they've been saying Mexico in New Mexico no no I you have to say me I swear to God they said Mexico originally and maybe that was just the you know word of mouth in the in the reports at the time that there was in Mexico but yeah you're right this does say New Mexico which yeah you're right that is uh that's part of the us look
this person's going to get money and walk away it'll be settled out of court we won't hear of this lawsuit again well also um and we talk about this on the podcast before companies Set uh set up companies to trade under just to make one particular film so that if they get sued the individual actors and and I mean actors and the people who are acting on behalf of the company not the literal actors in This film um can't be sued personally and so if this guy sues them into bankruptcy then what does that mean for everyone else who wants to Sue that they'll be it'll be settled out of court as most of these things are so he will get money yeah but what I mean is they're not going to have money for for long that's how it works that's why you
never make a deal where you say you want to Cutter the profits cuz there aren't any ever cuz they do it on purpose they're yeah but but but the selling out of court is different well I see saying essentially winky wink Alec Baldwin could just give him some money and say shut up right yeah and then yep we won't go ahead with this and that there will be money changing hands with when yeah when it's always settled out of court money is Chang hands yeah I know yeah he's like guys trust me are you you haven't been dabbling in in in you know producing just just don't worry about it telling you we won't hear again about this lawsuit go away just go down to Mexico you or old let's just say you
won't be hearing from that gaffer again win wink yeah I don't I don't want to use the phrase buried somewhere in Mexico but let's just we settled out of [Laughter] court yeah no I'd be Bing good movies this might have been a good movie we don't know see it we'll never know this I know I don't I've seen these last couple movies like um on drunk parents or something it's just based Al BWI like no I'm seen his like yeah he's just gonna make or break a movie it's just I've seen Prelude to a kiss no but I was never going to the shadow I've seen boss baby and I was not impressed no but I I've actually come to
work out that not all movies is for me and that's okay I can skip movies and not have to be feel bad or that one with uh Matthew mccon and Jennifer Lopez taught me that back in the day what was that yeah made in Manhattan is that what it's called oh God Matthew mccon is a strange one because he started off like cutting his teeth doing some pretty cool movies like A Time to Kill and then just did a bunch of romantic comedies where he just took his shirt off in front of like successful actresses built his career but also killed it at the same time yeah and and now now he just yeah now he does awesome I'll go to see anything just cuz I know he's got good tasted movies I think who who's got it best is still just Ryan Reynolds he just gets the beam

thought I had you on mute you're in my office yes but I stopped paying attention no he was he's another one who was uh he was very cool back in the day I was I've been listening to his book Matthew MCC that is oh yeah uh it's interesting but I do does he narrate his own audio book yeah he does he does I can only do a little bit at a time he's very yeah it's it's good it's interesting it's one of those ones where I question whether it's the truth of some of the stories sure but there is he is a great Storyteller so yeah yeah yeah you never know but he he is but he's he's very energetic and so I can only do a little bit of it at the time like it's yeah no yeah it's good green lights by
Matthew mcon if you're interested but yeah I think embellished a little bit oh maybe not I think we have a physical copy of that on our bookshelf but I probably prefer him to read it to me he certainly gets into it he's you are a book it's a book that I wrote It's a book about myself I'm the main character but it's like yeah when I was a boy and my mom came in it's like oh boy okay like I Can Do I Can Do I can do half an hour listeners listeners can't see you now but you're doing body movements that I am positive he was also doing as he was reading it and then my daddy smiling the whole he there he's got just a little whisper as he's talking and it's yeah yeah except when he gets to the part where he was molested he just mentions that and
doesn't dwell on it too much oh okay he did tell there actually there's a good story in there about how he won young boy Texas or some competition I've just made that name it was like some competition young little little little little Texas man or something listeners listeners Matt's opinions on young boy Texas do not reflect those there was a competition that he that he won where it was like young boy Texas prettiest little boy in Texas Texas and his mom always told him that he won right and then there's a photo of him on the wall and then when he got older he went back to visit his mom and he was tall enough to get close to the photo and he saw that the trophy said run her up oh and he was like Mom you told me I won and she goes that other boy cheated you did win
how do you cheat I don't know what the competition would be yeah how do you cheat and to be a prettier little boy than some other little pretty boy oh I'm not sure that's what the competition was guys I I'm pretty sure it wasn't but I just love yeah it was just a sexy young boy Texas competition well I mean they have that for girls right so I should they probably do have that for boys they don't call that they don't do that either you're not supposed to point out that's what it they're beauty pageants yeah it's got the word beauty in the title we've got to be the after party now oh yeah good point come join us in the Afterparty otherwise the called The Old Man Texas yeah that's all for this lead thank you for listening and we hope
