Jo King: Microsoft Acquires Activision Blizzard & Bono Doesn't Like U2

I'm now going to move you over to this side you didn't let me do it before for some reason is this a sex thing now this is on the show is this the podcast crap what this is the podcast this is your fault I was going to do this be set up and have your faces where I needed you to be before the show but I wasn't allowed to on your dick exactly the hell how have we been good is this the intro [ __ ] hell welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and Dam multiple nerdgasm your guide to All Things nerdy this is the intro this is it this is what you're getting I'm in a good mood cuz I haven't watched episode four of Boba Fett yet no I haven't either and

I'm very happy that I haven't because you know it feels like a clean break I'm not going to watch anymore except that I know they've teased that Mando is going to be in the next episode oh have they I thought this was going to be another week of me saying I haven't watched yet and you guys going maybe don't don't no I went straight to heavy spoilers.com and and just read the synopsis but uh at the end I see I just get angrier apparently someone says oh we're going to need a bit of help with this and then the uh Mandalorian theme started playing as the camera slowly tracked down yeah which which I like to think is actually the producers talking out loud like no no don't write that down we yeah we need this to be more like Mandalorian

well Lu go back to the mandal I don't need you guys to tell me that this Show's not good cuz deur Morrison the star of the show has been telling me all week about how how much he dislikes the show that's great that's very that's a big thing for him to be doing yeah it's good he's being honest though yeah yeah but of my favorite is when he's like well I'm the star of the show but it's not really up to me to tell them that I don't really like what they're writing right or is it a thing where he did try and just got shut down and then it's went oh you're still paying me I'll do this just a guy he's wait he just seems like he has no filter in the interview so cuz people were talking about you know the biker gang from last week which I watched and

yeah that was garbage the Power Rangers yeah and they literally call them mods this week by the way oh did they they call them the mods but it's a double onra because they're modified oh right oh that's but it's like that doesn't make it better that makes it far worse that you're aware that these guys look like mods well and finally hit me as to why they had that big scene where Boba Fett goes I want to ride him it's because of when we were introduced Bob Fett and he was writing oh of course it was call back to that and I think they were trying to do a big and I'm just no wow what you're saying is that the holiday special is now Canon yeah yes yeah but this is a quote from Tomorrow Morrison right so they're ask him about the controversy about the biker gang

this is this is tomorrow Morrison the star of the show so some of these things are out of our control we can't say as performers I don't want to work with these people cuz that's just not good enough wow not even I don't really agree with this I don't want to work with these people yeah no I I didn't say I don't want to work with them I just said that I wasn't able to say that at the time when I didn't see the thing about the biker gang is they've got these really the color on their bikes is pristine and stuff which wouldn't be on tne can we please stop riding [ __ ] happening T move on people there are I've seen them but like the the paint would be stripped off

and they wouldn't be painting their bike every day the actual biker gang I don't know why this is all about biker gangs right and then also at one point Boba Fett turns the Tusk and Raiders into a biker gang like what's the obsession I think Kevin I think Kevin read the first part of Shadows of the Empire I think there's a lot of swoop gangs in that okay or he watched Easy Rider they were swoop gangs so for for 30 years right well the Star Wars fandom has been saying we want more Boba Fett we want to see more Boba Fett Boba Fett's cool this is what John favro and Robert Rodriguez thought they were talking about this is what they thought we wanted to see Boba Fett doing well that's the thing right I mean yeah I mean I don't know we don't want this you

know anything interesting I I sent you guys a clip during the week of the original Clips versus the clips dubbed over by Tamara Morrison and just the absolute Menace that's been stripped from this character by by redoing this he he's less of a bounty hun now anyway you know just by his backstory just doesn't seem to give a [ __ ] I'm sure he doesn't he collects his paycheck gets to put on the cool suit yeah this is another get to put on the cool suit there's another qu Fat Bob Fett they've been talking about the show all week obviously and then this week now tomor Morrison's come out and he keeps going on he's said bbba Fett just talks too much in this show bbba Fett shouldn't talk this much and this is a

quote right John favro traveled you know off the set to go do something and tomor Morrison took the advantage of that to try and get some of the dialogue cut cuz he he said is this is a quote scene tomorrow I'm talking too much this bubba doesn't talk this much I've got all these paragraphs here I think we should get rid of it John's gone to Atlanta don't tell him next morning on set he gets a call from Atlanta John says you have to say the dialogue oh wow amazing that kind of reminds me of Henry caval um TV star and film Enthusiast uh on the set of The Witcher where he quite often thinks there's too much dialogue and then just doesn't talk and the other actors have to Justus to say anything yeah the other actors just have to fill in the gaps when he's not

talking and he's like I just could feel say anything at that point but that's I mean he's not wrong Bob Fett was pretty stoic in the in the older previous films what he said what three four lines in the entire thing if that like he's no used to me dead I mean the whole the whole appeal of Boba Fett was that he had six minutes of screen time across two films we knew nothing about him you know like it's just sketches of backstory here and there and rumors like that's now we're everything oh maybe I'll take over a crime cartel how do I do that I don't know let's we'll figure it out just hey remember he but he's not an old man he's 35 right but he's not like menacing or cool in this confirmed the second part of the story is only about 6 years after the

first part of the story too cuz I remember last week I was saying or maybe it's 30 years between the first and the second but yeah well it's not even a bubbling old man it's someone who we knew was being menacing and would just do anything to get the job done to uh I just want to be nice and treat everyone with respect yeah so can I ask one question walking you shoot someone for no reason and you lay the law down and that's it how is Jennifer Beals prettier now at like 70 years old than she was in the80s Jennifer Beals she the girl from Flash Dance remember Flash Dance sure I never saw that you probably did your

sister would have had it on when you were kids for sure no she was a Greece fan if she liked grease she liked FL she's a twac yeah all right but man she's aging like a fine [ __ ] wine yeah she's 58 I would not have guessed that I would not have guess she was 58 that's what I mean I'm like Jennifer beels go Jennifer oh she's that twei yeah that TW that TW [Laughter] like.com so I guess I I'll watch this week's episode at some point I just maybe won't like it I I I'm going to watch it I will I'll watch it today and can you imag like 10 years ago if they announced they're going to be a bob fet show but Luke you're not really going to want to watch it yeah can you imagine

that you're going to have to force yourself to [ __ ] watch every episode even even 10 years ago I knew I wouldn't have wanted to have watched it cuz they'd already changed Boba Fett back then oh sure okay yeah moris I'm G talk too much you won't like it yeah excuse me to me Boba Fett is Jeremy Bullock he will always be my bubba fit well I mean it's not even Jeremy bulock I mean we never saw Jeremy Bullock's face and every time Jeremy Bullock dressed up in the in the costume for a con he never wore the helmet cuz he was he wanted people to know what he looked like do actually see his face in Empire shrikes back yes but not as he plays no he plays the um Imperial officer who's holding

Princess Leia while they're dragging her away yeah did you guys watch that behind the helmet documentary on Disney plus no cuz I knew it was about this it's very good it's it's lovely it mostly talks about it's got footage of the' 70s where they originally intended for all the Stormtroopers in Empire Strikes Back to be Boba fets and they were going to be white so they have the um they have the the white prototype suit and it's um is it Ben Burr the sound engineer yeah yeah Ben B he yeah Ben ber he's wearing it cuz they built it and he was the yeah right only one who fit the suit and then they did some public appearances and they're like this is this guy's you're going to know who he is in the next movie come out and it's just really it's really

cool to seal that old footage oh I've just something else has just hit me about how nice Boba Fett is so he lets the gmoran guards live guys yep you guys can work for me even though you'll turn on anyone at the drop of a hat yeah the Bounty Hunter W guy who will just murder him I'll let you live as yep we now friends and yep it's yeah he just wants to be friends what with two Huts right yes TW show up at the front door on their on their little what do you call those things on the litter no Gods just them like what what yeah it's garbage it's literal garbage it's awful it's awful I don't understand it I just don't understand it is that is it that they let it because Mandalorian did so

well they've just gone look you can do whatever you want always wanted I thought that did with Mandalorian I just maybe it's not cuz this is not the same as Mandalorian there just so many things about this that are so confusing to me I I don't I just don't understand the decisions made about a lot of it it's just so weird and it normally would stuff like even though we may not like it you still see a lot of love for it elsewhere and I do know that not everything is for everyone but this I'm not even seeing anyone sort of coming to the defense no I mean people like seen on TT people like it and oh really okay I've seen only it's clearly dividing fans but I know I'm just seeing headlines like oh the last episode in the series is going

to make up for all the episodes you hate got solo he gets his tongue out can't talk anymore it's rumored that Han Solo Harrison Ford actually went over and they're trying to do a big reveal like they did for the end of Mandalorian oh okay that's a rumor that's out there [ __ ] off which won't make it better well there are a few parallels between this story line and the Solo movie so it does make sense that if there was going to be a a crossover it would be to the stuff did I read recently there's looking to be like a sequel to the Solo movie but not about Han Solo oh it's just about Emily Clark Emily CL Duo I think yeah I don't I think I've read something looking at a sequel or a television show based on her storyline okay which would

actually be I'd be interested in that because it's not I'd be interested in literally any of it if they do it well yeah that's right this B could have been good it's not though yeah it's not really not I'm I'm getting ready to be disappointed by Obi-Wan or Kenobi no it's now called Obi-Wan Kenobi or the character well that's the thing I think ran McGregor's got enough clout to say I don't think Oban would say that I don't know he hasn't been working a lot lately his last big film was transporting to just a bit of a throwback was in Birds of Prey or something he been in a few things he's been in a few things he was fantastic in Fargo but I mean when you when a movie actor starts doing TV you can't really say the career is going

great what is he Henry caval I man the other day I just watched that video of Henry caval just building his own PC 20 minutes 20 minutes of him just building a PC yeah there's there's even times where it just pauses while he reads the instructions about how to insert different pieces of components he seems like a cool guy yeah yeah we should ask him to be on the show he's just a nerd who also happens to be like [ __ ] handsome handsome and wellb built and and and became an actor but he's just just not DES in for film he's very handsome though I was thinking I was watching Witcher and I was thinking like if you were a sculptor and you were just gonna carve a man like from your imagination that's the man you'd cares

of stone yeah he is [ __ ] proportional you no I haven't I'm about halfway I'm really enjoying it though and you know what I started I downloaded Witcher 3 and started playing it and then I was like no it's too much because it's similar but different so yeah I'm confusing myself so I'll I'll watch to the end and then I'll go back and play it I actually started watching something else on Netflix this week I only started it yesterday but it's very very good Matt have you seen archive 81 I have seen it on there and I made a note to watch it but I've not James ju prod James Juan produce right oh okay tonally similar to devs yeah right but horror

and not science fiction um also reminded me a little little bit of homecoming from last year which I told you guys that you both probably would enjoy um watch it no this is Spider-Man's homecoming definitely not that um this is worth a watch I'm only two episodes in but it's it's very good mysterious yeah cuz I read the synopsis and I was like that sounds like a good movie I'm like oh like analog horror yeah it's a show yeah so like I was like oh okay yep um I think short run series what are they limited series is now my favorite medium but but it goes that then films then regular Series where they just keep writing until it's no longer good and people stop watching well yeah that

that's what I'm saying the limited series I think is the where the future should be because you you can take longer to explain things show things out you don't have to F hour and half to's that term yeah stop when you have to stop what's that term for when something keeps going until it's no longer good there's a phrase for it flogging a dead horse that'll Jumping the Shark yeah also also Ricky ja is great at this because he he will only ever do three series of six episodes and I just watched the last series of uh afterlife yeah I started it yeah yeah very good and ends and there you go that's the end there's going to be no more he finished the story um I watched all of the Dexter Revival finished and it's done I watched

it it was good it was infinitely better than what we got at the end of what was the last season seven season 6 seven I can't remember how many there were originally not perfect but uh it was good better than what you got last time yeah yeah suck me because I feel I feel even with the shitty ending I I've got closure and moved on from Dexter if I start watching this will I like remember why I loved it and want to watch more I I did yeah the first episode it was it was interesting I said there's a few things about it where I I think he behaves I might be misremembering he doesn't behave like like I would expect a sociopath to behave in this and I'm not sure he ever did so and it's just been a while since I watched it so maybe I'm just not used to him but like he

does he cares about things that I'm like why does he care about that why is that bothering him you know what I mean I can't remember if he used to behave I mean he was slowly learning to be more Human season after season and this would be like this is also set a few years after so yeah you'd have to assume that he continued think it's basically real time 10 years later or whatever so but yeah there some there is follow up and characters come back and you know it's good I like it CU did you rewatch any of the like original before going back into this and maybe that sort of I just watched it I liked it I've seen an episode got Clancy Brown I watched literally anything with Clancy Brown in

it well he's in man if they want to pick up some old shows do season 4 of Carnaval oh [ __ ] yeah it's written the guy wrote six seasons of it yeah yeah and then he said he was going to was he going to make write novels that never happened he was going to do whatever he could to finish the story cuz he'd written it all and he's like guys I didn't even get to the good bin apparently he couldn't do anything yeah CU because I still don't know what happen want to make a good show just give me some money and let me play in Star Wars wait let me play with my action I'll give you the mve show that you've been waiting for I mean they give out Star Wars willy-nilly I mean the only reason Fabro got another go at Boba Fett was because he did a good job on Mando

they're not going to give him another one after this so I don't know no no favro is still the golden TR is he you reckon yeah he's coming back for Mando fall they'll pin this on Rodriguez I bet yes this will be's he's got Danny tro in there it's all it's got his you got Danny tro it's got his scent all over it yeah it does way too many cross Fades my my Star Wars would be sort of yeah a little bit rate it would be rated a little bit higher my Dan's face immediately what Dan thought you were about to say would be sex consensual it seemed like he stopped himself a little bit rap little oh I've said too much yeah that's right and then he's like there would be sex but it

would be consensual that's such a dentist line there too by the way no it's all going to be consensual yeah I'll consent to 100% of the sex I have you Reon we could get Jos Weeden to do an episode of or do a Star Wars series speaking of nonconsensual um honestly I reckon till a few years ago he would have been on the agenda for him especially with all the TV shows coming up he's made sure that's never going to happen he's done a great job of wrapping that up in a nice little bow so after everything that happened he's finally come out to talk about it and well not really address it in the way that smart person would address it no he's so I tried to read the

article but there's a lot of words in it so I'm going to go to Matt who's read it it begins with him saying that he's terrified he's going to say the wrong thing so he's been too scared to give any interviews and that's correct interview over he wasn't scared enough clearly because he should have paid he to that scared and he should have kept his mouth shut he would have gone through coaching and stuff before this he would have had to the the interviewer I think does a good job of pointing out funny little things like that for example there are several times where she asks him a question and he says I've got to go to the bathroom and then apparently later on he said oh yeah I was talking getting some advice from people they said you

know if I'm uncomfortable I should say I've got to go to the bathroom and then so then they tell you that and every time she points out he went to the bathroom I asked him what he said to Chris MC Carpenter and he said excuse me I've got to go to the bathroom suddenly got a pee shouldn't be drinking so much water yeah so yeah I mean he has not done his he he's basically gone the worst way of doing the apology for I'm sorry that they thought that or they felt that way not I'm sorry for my actions or anything like that think not getting it no and I think uh I mean he gets part of it he gets that everyone hates him but I think he doesn't

yeah so I read an Abridged version of this first I I read like The Geek Tyrant um yeah abridgment first and actually as I was reading it I started to think you know he's making one or two good points here ESP about being brought on to Justice League and having the cast not wanting him to be there having the studio ask him go in Kick Ass completely shake this up we don't like the way it's going and having the cast go oh Zack Snider wasn't doing it this way and he's like well Zach's gone mate okay and they told you he went home to look at his family but actually they told me they didn't want him to do it anymore so you know that everyone was rubbing him the wrong way but then it got to the

point where they said did you threaten galado and his answer was well no and she doesn't speak very good English so she probably just misunderstood and it's like I'm very smart and I speak and she's a foreigner so she probably just didn't get my cool joke yeah you're an idiot the one the one part I did sort of readed was where he was talking about all the Affairs he was having with set on actresses and stuff and going oh it's because I felt powerless so I felt felt like he had to like oh sorry that must have been awful for you yeah but you don't understand that power Dynamic you're the powerful one yeah it's like there is a there's an interesting like thing there that he's just missing like it is interesting that he felt cuz he said he felt like if he he'd always been

a nerd and now he had access to sleep with these beautiful women and he felt like if he didn't he might never get to and I'm like that's interesting problem but you're prick about it like you're just not down the that starts coming off on that path of that he feels cuz you see these people those guys on who are oh you're a bitcher or this and it's cuz oh you w't date me you don't like nice guys it's that type of thing like he feels he deserves the beautiful girl to want him it's not a and so it's yeah and that's I'm getting that feeling from it's just because he got to a position of power he was able to start having he makes a good point it's like his perspective is just wrong like there's a bit where they talk about someone someone said oh that he burst

into their office with a with some young actress and just started making out with her rolling around the floor and his response was not you know not concerned necessarily about the fact that he was making out with an actress he said oh that doesn't sound true I was terrified people would find out I was [ __ ] those women so I don't think I would have burst into somebody's office and it's like hang on do you do you hear yourself like what are you saying you've missed the point the point was you were making it obvious regardless yeah and you made other people uncomfortable with it yeah yeah just miss but no even then it it sounds like he knows he was doing something wrong clearly focusing on the wrong thing no I didn't I didn't do it on the floor of

their office I wouldn't do that I did [ __ ] her I did [ __ ] her but not in that location so wrong like fo yeah I I do like he's not coming back the um the the take that this author for vulture um on Jos Sweden's writing of strong women cuz you know he was given he was given awards for his feminism and things like that you know and you can't take that away from him like he he he does write great female characters he always has Christ sake even more so as a result well her her Theory and this is a great line it's like he wrote women that he wanted to be and wanted to [ __ ] yeah

right yeah yeah he's just giving me that impression of I'm a nice guy yes well that's you're not giving me a chance there's a little paragraph at the end where she's finished the interview and she's off you know compiling it all and that and then apparently he he emails or he calls her or something like that and he basically says oh I was thinking about it and I think maybe the problem is actually that I'm just too nice and people took advantage of me and she's like no I don't think that's it mate it's not that yeah that is not it that is not the impression keep thinking call me back when you've had another idea yeah M maybe listen to what some of the people are saying and not come out on the defensive maybe listen and learn from what they're saying talking about

his toxic you know working environments in the writing rooms and it certainly that stuff rang true with me and I almost felt like if he's just like I've seen those I've been involved in that kind of thing not involved but you know I've seen that kind of stuff in in that industry and he's just kind of a part of it there so I don't know I would say that he or other than the fact that he was the showrunner like those writers rooms and that probably were a lot like that back in the90s or whatever and it would have been awful being a woman in there but then some of the descriptions of the behavior you know where the woman's talking about her episode and he's like lowering you to the chair L the chair down and that kind of stuff I'm like yeah but that that is weird but

it's not like it's not abuse but that's that's what one of did say he was a prick but he didn't abuse me right but then I guess it's it's uh uh if he behaved like that with everyone and some people were okay with it and other people weren't then you just need to learn who's not okay with it and stop read the room like what what what's a like is this a does this person find it funny when I L their chair yes he does all that [ __ ] you know you see behind the scenes of the office and stuff and he's always just being an absolute [ __ ] but no one said he was doing it in a creepy way yeah it wasn't seen as like malicious anything I mean and some of the you know like his kind of angry fits and stuff like that I I understand that because like I've I've

gotten really frustrated on sets before because and and part of the reason I don't work in production anymore and Matt I know you can relate to this too is it you have to be a prick in order to get the job done people will not listen to you yeah you can't just come up and go hey you guys when you finished your cigarettes can you come back in like you have to be like the [ __ ] are you doing we're ready to shoot like yeah we're burning at the moment it's a Cutthroat industry because everybody wants in and they all want to be basically they will climb over your dead body to get to where they're going so if you're not like you know on a on a high if you're not set to a higher level than they are then you know they're not going to listen to you ESP when yeah

when I was a location manager yeah exactly right they don't listen to you unless you're yelling at them you can't be like oh you can't B it you have to be like move your [ __ ] car right now yes yeah but yeah there's also a a way to do it now like there's being getting that your point across like that but then you also well there isn't systemic yeah and I hope it is because part of the reason I left the industry was because I don't like who I am when I'm in those environments you you have to be on a level that I don't enjoy being on so I'm out totally yeah yeah because I look like I look at people like Tao itd and I don't think I I mean this could be good marketing but he doesn't strike me as somebody who behaves that way and and so I hope that he's not you know what I

mean and that and and him being so prolific right now I depends on where unless good marketing and he actually is a prick and it's just cuz he started on small stuff where he's sort of basically making the show with his friends I think that's part of it too and he's still even on this level choosing who he works with yeah true yeah yeah so I think that can make a big difference yeah but I can imagine Jos Sweden especially Justice League he's brought on he's already the bad guy um he's going out he has to be on the defensive from the get-go and believe me we are not defending him no God no God no and he makes one point he makes one point where he's like with with Buffy you know it was a cast of 20s something it was easy for everyone to

just lose focus and the whole thing turn into a cocktail party you know him as the boss it's his job to get everyone to to focus they're going to make sure at the end of the day they've got an episode yeah like it's all fun and games but like when I say be quiet you have to [ __ ] be quiet yeah on my Star Wars show that I'm I'm creating cocktail parties all the time yeah yeah think that's why Gareth EVS got fired from uh Rogue one it's cuz he was just shooting all that what do we want to do what's cool stuff we can film well that's what that first trailer was was just him shooting cool stuff I want to see that movie I want to see [ __ ] Stormtroopers in the water walking towards the beach I want to see her on the end of that [ __ ] thing where the Tie Fighter comes up yeah I

wonder if that movie actually the to kathle Kennedy and going what is this G what movie is this and cool isn't it yeah where's the [Laughter] story one thing with the Justice League thing and I I can totally imagine this and I understand why it would piss Jos weden off was the thing where you know Zack Snider was encouraging improv so Jos Weeden don't do that I've written them specifically and because he is a pretentious kind of dialogue writing guy and I could yeah so also that one thing that was one thing I was like yeah I could see why that would piss him off but also yeah yeah but also I don't know when when when you're the screenwriter as well as the Director especially if it's a very wordy thing it's like if you don't use

this particular word now the joke three lines later is not going to work so you have to just say and apparently he would do that on Buffy too there was a couple actors he came in to try to you know that just say say their own lines it's like say the [ __ ] lines it's also something there something that on even on Babylon 5 that had to happen like you could not go off script cuz something that said in season 1 came became part of a plotline in Story 3 and he had it all mapped out and planned in his head so you couldn't go off script because it could destroy everything and I think that's where he's sort of coming from is that whole no this is what it is and has to be and cuz it he was asked to change the tone and so I can see how there was he

was right and these people have done several films with Zack Snider already and they used to doing it a certain way and then he comes in and he's like we're not doing that anymore we're doing it my way I can see how that caused some tension but it just doesn't seem like he dealt with it very well at all no it doesn't sound like look he regrets it he he regrets doing it and agreeing he does but I'm not sure he regrets it for the right reasons he's never indicated I mean fall it was a bad idea from the start he regrets it because now his career is in the toilet not because he behaved in a poor way yeah correct all right let's talk about something fun well before we move on James gun who is to me the very personification of how to do things

correctly in like the woker verse right um because a couple of years ago when this was all kind of blowing up um Alan tck the man with two dicks um tweet and we've discussed this before he was like I've worked with J for years and he never abused me so I don't believe it yeah um I'm paraphrasing he didn't say it like that what he said was I never saw Jos do anything and he's a mate so iag that yeah and at the time all the actors I worked with for many years who I'm friends with who they said they did something uh don't believe them that's essentially he has since retracted his comment because he's also not an idiot um at the time James gun liked that and

um as in on Twitter hit the like button yeah yeah just sitting his house G like he just he just went I like that yeah but Ray Fisher who a lot of the criticism was coming from um has this week asked still on Twitter James gun to explain why he liked that tweet and James gun said uh honestly yeah when he said that I was like yeah you're right we shouldn't vilify someone until we know what actually happened um but then as soon as we know what actually Happ we be a prick to me yeah and but he's like I deleted my like in the same reason that Alan tck deleted the Tweet was because when it more information came out that there was a lot of stuff that

had gone on I decided yeah actually me not knowing about it is not reason enough for me to be neutral about itm yeah that's right I no longer like yeah yeah so another another good one from James gun another bullet dodged by James Master dodging the bullets the only person would be fired from Disney and brought back on the only person to tweet child pornography and then work for Disney get sacked for treating the child pornography and then get hired back and patted on the back to we should be clear I don't know that he actually tweeted show pornography did he no I don't think so didn't he I don't think he he was making I don't want to he actually tweeted any you know there's a very big

difference very big fine I think what he did was he said he enjoyed some and put a link to something that was oh did he funny think he making yeah it it was definitely a child pornography joke with a link that's but it's gone now so we yeah it wasn't child pornography sorry to clarify he wasn't like look at these little kids okay cuz yeah that you get fired and you do not come back from that you can just tweet that last tweet is just joke FYI and then you're good just just JK yeah and you're good just kidding yeah just kidding my God is JK just kidding I always thought yeah it was joking I thought it was joking like Jing just kidding huh oh actually also thought it

was joking mind oh I mean same thing I guess it is but it I just kidding and joking I don't they can be different I don't know how but in my head they can right well JK I want to know what Luke thinks about Microsoft acquiring Activision [ __ ] you Sony well [ __ ] you Sony stock that's for sure Sony stock dropped $20 million on the day that yeah 20 million that's nothing I mean that they that probably does happen quite a lot I think I think that may have just been if they dropped a billion can you that would so they paid what was it 76 75 billion 75 billion right and that was a bargain because

Activision [ __ ] themselves over now and there was all that talk about you know the the misconduct and stuff that's why they got it for a discount and all a lot of the staff there a lot of the staff there are going yay we're going cuz a lot of Staff has gone from Microsoft Tois blizzard and they're going yay we're going back under Microsoft who will look after us fire out oh I mean great for them I guess now one of the things I thought the biggest thing was going to be cuz Sony is still the biggest Market for games at the moment so it goes Sony 10 and then Microsoft even after this acquisition which blows my mind yeah but the big thing I was interested about was what was going to happen with Call of Duty cuz that's probably the biggest game that's

Microsoft and Sony and Sony has gets a lot of exclusive rights to that and gets a lot of content early so there news articles going back out saying yep it's definitely going to Call of Duty is definitely going to be only on Xbox or anything like that I what they've said at the moment is we will all of the contracts that we currently activis have with Sony we're going to Yep they're still going to remain in place we're not changing anything there um we still want Call of Duty to be on Playstation but but they they're s saying we have to see how it's going to happen the way I either how much money they give us or hi yes you can have it but they've got to play it on Xbox game pass M oh yeah okay because one thing I've been saying for a long time is Game Pass they keep

saying like you can play this game wherever Game Pass is available yeah and I still think that they're trying to get Xbox game pass to and to go on to other platforms so we'll see but they have done a tweet like hey we've got all of these IPS out what do people want to see come back yeah I want hero Guitar Hero I I've always enjoyed those games but the problem is even the last time they tried rock band tried to come out with rock band again Activision came out and went his Guitar Hero again that the Market's not big enough for two of them right yeah they have to play nicely together especially when Guitar Hero came out at the same time as rock band it wasn't the same game they brought out a different type of guitar and a

different way to play and M give that I could I could never play those because it was always just play too different from actually playing an instrument and you had to be in time with the graphics not in time to the song so even the drumming one was problematic if I always wanted them to bring one out where essentially by playing it a lot you learn to play a new instrument well there was that's called Rocksmith yeah okay there was one where you plugged a guitar in you actually plugged a guitar oh okay yep you could do guitar or Bass yeah do you want it you sure talking about the game or you just the game he's asking the questions that Jos Weeden should have asked because you wined when you said it do you want I saw that little TK in your

eye pointed at his dick Smith oh I don't have it sorry I thought I had a key for it it's all right I don't and just I was going to give just a bit more context for those that that figure right $75 billion billion Disney for 4 billion for yes like this that figure is just insane see the thing is they what they're actually buying it's yes they've got like Call of Duty and all this stuff but that's it's actually more so the mobile stuff that they're getting that's where their actual big money is Candy Crush cuz they just went and brought that it's not the Call of Duty and World of Warcraft Starcraft World of Warcraft that's not where the that money is I wonder if they'll bring it's on stuff that we don't understand

or know I wonder if they'll bring World of Warcraft to Xbox that would be interesting um look they've tried to do MMOs on a console yeah and I think what it's always struggled with is it's hard to talk doing that something like that talk it's hard to do it that on a controller Yeah you sort of need all of those extra buttons and keys but now that you can actually plug a keyboard in it's maybe feel it's a slightly different too I mean not vastly different but there is a slight nuanced difference the one thing I'm actually scared about with all of these things and Game Pass and everything is about how toxic things can become online yeah because it's quite easy to get a free pass to trial for for Game Pass and so you can just go along and just be a

troll to people and if you're not paying for a game you're not worried about getting banned from it that's fair it's like one of the in the one of the highest rate uh one of the games that made the most money last year is still CSG go oh yeah Counter Strike go [ __ ] H that game has been out for a billion years people are just the reason why that's still selling so much is cuz it's pretty cheap and you use that play all your cheats on it that count gets banned you move on to the next one and Away you go we used to play Counter-Strike at land parties in the '90s yeah mhm that's the only time I've played it protect the VIP that's right yeah man there was an interesting that was so fun an interesting article just about

Activision this week where when they were in damage control right you know there's all this bad press about you know the Cosby room and all that horrid [ __ ] that was apparently going on there there was the Wall Street Journal reported that apparently one of the things that they thought might be a way to combat that was to just buy a [ __ ] news site like Kotaku apparently was floated they were going to buy Kaku for example and then I guess just write some positive articles they thought that might fix the problem I mean it's sort of scary the fact that they probably could have but just yeah the fact that it got like should we try that soon yeah oh sure but just like what a what a desperate move was like can we just buy the newspaper yeah what if we were the news yeah

exactly look one of the things I think it's cotk who's still yeah the head I think very quickly after this finalizes he's getting unfortunately though he's going to get the golden handshake yeah he's going to get the is that is that where you piss on him on the way out no the golden handshake is uh oh you've done a terrible job and you're leaving but he have a lot of money as you walk away it should be called the Golden pat on the bum wait that's what I want how do I get that I know right you got to you got to have a Cosby room Matt and you're just not the type you're just not the type that it's true sometimes it's it's not always if someone's done a terrible job sometimes it is a sort of a way to hey you've done this for so many years here

we're going to make your role redundant right so you get a redundancy payout so you get all this money but yeah you're CEO of a company that role is not actually redundant we're going to replace you someone else is going to have to run that company at some point yeah yeah and and the here has a little cash to tied you over is like in the tens of millions of dollars oh possibly hundreds of Millions um I'm pretty sure that the reason why he was pushing to this deal to go ahead I think he's he's one of the ones that's going to be walking away a few of those billions [ __ ] hell well then maybe he can start his own News website I think you'll find he'll just disappear I would not he's going to be taken outat look at it again he's at it again

I think you'll find he you guys are going to quite soon yeah I mean you may find his body if you start digging randomly in the Eastern block what time is it why do I like to threaten people so much I don't know hey guys uh just while we're around we not in the middle of the podcast anymore which is when Jenna wanted us to to do this but we should plug the the Afterparty oh yeah cuz we're being threatened by Jenna now to do exactly speaking of threats Luke's going to threaten lots of people in the Afterparty I bet if you like this show and we hope you do uh let us know right in at multipl nasm.com if you really like it go to patreon.com nerdgasm and you can and give us your money give us money yeah there we've got a couple of tiers three

tiers one of them you can just kind of support us if you like the show if you want the show a bit early uh you can get that and if you want the Afterparty where we keep talking for 10 20 minutes afterwards you can get that for 10 bucks a month and that's where Dan gets to let his hair down and uh MH and Luke's not allowed to tell him not to talk about naughty things no I I still I still say no we just don't listen to you it just doesn't listen anymore yeah I get all Jos wedney in the Afterparty that's right is that something you want to admit to he starts lowering Luke's chair Luke says no don't stop and I say no you're right I won't stop Luke says I don't I want this segment cut from the podcast and Dan says you'll cut

this segment from the podcast Over My Dead Body and then says I don't speak English and that sounded like a threat to me yeah yeah or I just heard the words dead body because I was in the Israeli Army and I know what that means yeah yeah I do speak 12 piss her off you know yeah I can understand threats in many many languages yeah we didn't talk about this did you see galo's response to that no they that article came out and then galado just responded I understood him perfectly well yeah we knew you didn't have to say that but but but yeah yeah just to clarify yeah well played did you see she came out and apologized for um singing What a Wonderful World or imagine or whatever it was that she said that was quite bad yeah yeah and she was like

that's probably not the time I probably misread the situation oh I mean they meant well I think but you know that doesn't yeah just it was not necess patreon.com nerdgasm go on speaking of um singers people don't want to listen to um do you guys like you the band you never have no you know who else doesn't I never I never got what people liked about you to me and Dan yeah well that's another thing we'll come back to that put a pin in there um the other person who doesn't like you to is is Bono singer and person Who cashes the checks of YouTube right is it because he their songs are so slow and boring I think that's part of it so he says wres him he says every time one comes on the radio he he gets really embarrassed about it and he said that

partially he he he says that he finds most of their early stuff very pretentious which I mean he's not wrong sure but he um he also said that um and I don't know quite what he means by this but he said he only recently learned to sing and I guess what he means is that his technique has improved and you know in the end he was just trying to be a rock star and sing really loud quite probably quite like remember when the The Black Album came out and we were like James hfield can sing yeah maybe it's even maybe it's also because he's gotten older and he's not as fit as he used to be he's had to probably learn breathing techniques a bit more than just going out and giving it a go sure but the other thing that which

you unknowingly hit on just now uh was that he said he didn't realize the name was a pun he like he just always thought that you two meant the um the plane the bomber and it was only he said it was only recently that somebody was like no it's like you too and he's like oh I never got that he's not he's not British he's Irish isn't he he's Irish yeah he said f de potatoes yeah do you do an Irish accent Luke no okay that's not true I've heard you I do Scottish no you heard me do Scottish okay okay give us a give us a bit of Scottish whoops I knew he was going to say exactly that that's always my go toour when I start talking in Scottish accent all it I learned that from the show called botton that documentary that documentary series starring and Adrian Edmonson yep Eddie go starts talk Irish uh Scottish

because he's wearing a dress oh and starts off with a I whoops amazing I thought I thought Luke had left and and been replaced with a with someone from the highlands I'm allowed to do that accent cuz I'm Scottish are you Scottish I think last week he confess he's had a bit of everything in him oh that's part Scottish and part French right how did that happen English didn't want him South buddy I was about to go down the Hop off when a male and a female love each other well no when a male and female are horny right they get it on and then this is what happens I'm pointing at me listeners he's not having sex right

now he's saving it for the after party we might do a video podcast one day if you give us lots of money on patreon wait sorry did you just slightly say that you might have sex on camera if the list pay you enough go on it's a lot of money how much money would it take for the after party one week so there is 10 to 20 minutes of content with us or with a yeah no no no that's the thing right the listeners they don't want they don't want guest stars we've never had a guest star in the history of this podcast sure because that everything's got a price what is the price for the three of us to [ __ ] each other on cam in the Afterparty honestly because and this is what I think because it would have an impact on your job it it actually have to be

enough money that you wouldn't have to work again for the rest of your life it would anyway Luke it would anyway he's slightly now threatening to report you to your boss if you [ __ ] him on camera I thought he was I thought he was trying going to report me if I didn't [ __ ] him on camera do this Dan may have repercussions no what I've always saying you I'm saying it's in your best interest to yes and it's not just the money me it would be it would be like a $100 million it would have to be enough that I would not have to worry about working ever again the rest of my life it has to be a stupid amount of money that's a good amount of money feel he won't be able to apply for a job it

would be too insane I would quit my job million got one final question Mr Alderson before we can let you start flipping the burgers have you ever had sex with uh two men on a podcast you have I'm terribly sorry that's the one rule we have here sorry in my head it's not just for a podcast it turns into something that's going viral it's around the world going to say people are going to be gagging to watch it Bel they'll be gagging stand aside Bel yeah okay but no let's wind this back a bit this is this is I mean this is the main show like what's the Afterparty going to be um Matt Matt wanted to know if if it was a woman that all three of us were [ __ ] whether that would be less money so Matt I want

to know what your PR at Point at that point I realiz you were invol just you and I no no no so Luke said that he would [ __ ] both of us for $100 million right Matt I want to know what your price is for the three of us gang banging some no it's a lot cheaper if we don't film it at the time I made I said that I thought it's just Luke having sex with a woman with somebody he had specified who yeah oh he had but I mean $100 million sure all right yeah yeah so get on to that patre 100 million with or without the woman she can watch but have a te if you pay enough that you can watch patreon.com multipl

nerdgasm is that what you wanted Jenna wait what what youing chosen the woman Luke has chosen the woman get away from my wife and is that what you always say to a woman after youve had sex with us oh God this such a dark turn [ __ ] hell all right speaking about dark do we move on to Batman then please oh sure please that's one that's one C we couldn't possibly argue with them this will be the long longest Batman ever now longest doesn't always mean good it as We Know by ever means I thought we were changing the subject apparently not so so 2 hours and 55 minutes not including crit looking out for the

Batman oh not including credits [ __ ] oh God yeah so and then but you also they do it would I do an after credit scene so it's going to be I have to watch the credits as well to get that last 30 seconds DC don't normally do them do they that's kind of a Marv I don't think have they ever done them I don't know no they did they did Suicide Squad Justice League had one didn't it did it I think a few of them had him yeah yeah yeah cuz there was the one where like Superman and the Flash race that was a post scene and there was one to there's one where the death stroke gets on the boat and talks to uh Lu which one which movie was that attached to all of them can't remember but yeah who knows well I mean look 3 hours is long if it's good I

guess that's fine I just don't know cuz the Dark Knight Rises was very long wasn't it and I enjoyed that yeah and then what's a movie that's 3 hours long like Titanic okay quite Long Blade Runner 2049 long wasn't it I think it was quite long 3 hours is a long the only three there's a couple of three hour movies that come to mind with me um Magnolia was famously 3 hours okay um fidd of the roof is 3 hours um there's there's not a lot of movies that get to that third hour uh Godfather part two which was two movies in Lord of the Rings sh list but then the samurai the newest one uh the sces he did

uh was three hours and it was incredibly yeah the the least of the like the best movies a lot of them there's no really recent ones most of them are quite old Inland Empire I'm joking I'm not sure I watch three hours of David Lynch I have to take a breaking Kong three hours H that had an intermission when I saw it I guess I well there you go that might explain it I'm actually looking at this list which is the best list of three hour long move there's nothing in here I want to see the best list or the list of the best the best list such those are two different claims yeah best films over 3 hours long that what you wanted yeah well I mean look I'm interested to see this movie I'm not I'm

going to go see it I'm not going to go see it I'll watch it no I'm not going to go see it either but yeah I'm going to go see it I'm done with that [ __ ] have you been to the movies recently Luke or has it been a little while I yeah I went saw Spider-Man last week oh did you oh yep how was that I enjoyed it I cried did you a number of times really okay don't say don't say too much I haven't seen it no interesting don't don't listen to this week's say file then cuz I talk about why I cry wait you talked about spoilers yeah you didn't warn me before you sent me that what if I had listened to it before I posted it it's been more than two weeks since the movie came out you know the rules I don't know the rules

apparently jeez good thing movies weeks it doesn't count during Co cuz you can't go to the movies here you're in Cambra where no one has Co everywhere else in the world we're afraid to leave our houses yeah I I I go to the movie still I went to the Cinema and they brought me alcohol it was great New York just passed a new law that says that you can drink in the cinema now oh really where dude New York really I drinking Cinema there all the time oh you w me to now you can do it without breaking the law wait so I can just walk in with a with a bottle or something no it'll probably be you have to buy it there due to yeah but they're allowed to sell it at the con stand now I've had drinks in theater here in Rhode Island I mean states have

different laws I guess here it's just I realiz do New York no I didn't realize you couldn't either until I learned that you now could well you could before I I on proof of that well I'm glad that's one of the could you weren't meant to where'd you get it from your backpack down the street you always walk around with alcohol no should most people don't look you're aware of that yeah yeah I don't anymore us I used to with a flask in I used to walk around a flask my leg brace I seem to recall you had a walking stick with a flask in it once those walking sticks are a gimmick and are useless yeah they weren a good walking flask yeah where the flask goes is up the top where so you could twist off the

handle of the walking stick and play out the flask sneaky sneaky but that's where you need a lot of strength in a walking stick because that's where you're putting all of your weight and so they break very easily not where you're putting all your scotch exactly but no I used to have a flask and I'd have that's why I used to sneak it in the festivals cuz i' just put it in my leg brace I have all these flask in my leg brace and then just get in buy coke and away I go Happy Times simpler times how big was the flask I'd have about four so I was getting in with about I just in every every side of the leg Yeah I was I was getting in with like a bottle of Scotch yeah right there are other ways is this is this a leg brace made up entirely of hip flasks but the other thing is is I also

knew a lot of times I would know the security there so it wasn't a problem anyway yeah they let me jump in the line going without a ticket that's great I want to be young again I was young had a very interesting life you can't you can't be sorry no I don't want to be young I look at young people now I'm glad I'm old yeah but if you were young you wouldn't that's that whole thing about when I when I got upset when I was young cuz I didn't want to grow up because I didn't want to I didn't want to not like the stuff I liked and my mom said yeah but if you get old and you don't like it anymore you won't care that you don't like it cuz you won't like it and I was

like mind blown yeah thanks Mom yeah but then you've got to think about I mean there was a day where you put away your toys and never pick them back up again you just didn't realize you didn't realize that that the last time it's like I get sad sometimes building Lego because I get Lego you don't like it I build it you just do it because you you want to be young no I like it I build it but then that's the end of it I built it and now I play with it it's I built now goes up on a shelf if you want to play with it why don't you no but he doesn't want to that's the thing and I completely and I had a moment of that when I was about 12 when I I built cuz I used to have like things that I would build semi-regularly and then you know destroy to build other things but then

i' be like I'll build that castle back up and I remember once when I was about 12 I built this castle that I built always and I used to always just kind of play [ __ ] Robin Hood with attack the castle and stuff and I didn't want to and I got really sad and that's when I needed your mom to come in and say like it's all right it's all right to she bu coming me she buy that's right but um I I got really Melancholy cuz I was like I don't want to play I remember when when I I used to read a lot of Choose Your Own Adventure and fighting fantasy books and I remember one day I got a it was um one of the the Forgotten Realms you know the Dungeons and Dragons books it was just it was just a novel right and I didn't I I'm not even I don't have any memories

of reading a novel before that and I was reading it and I was like oh this is way better and I remember I said my mom yeah I said to my mom I'm like I'm reading a book it's just a normal book that's great I don't have to I don't have to make decisions I just get to find out what what Happ I don't have to keep my fingure of the page in case I don't like this outcome and I I remember saying to my mom I'm like I think I like normal books now and she was like this this what the authoring on you I the first book that I read I still remember the first book I read by choice and not something I had to read for school or anything and that was Timothy's arms an air to the Empire that was the first book you read by I mean

that didn't come out until we were quite yeah like 11 or 12 oh you would but yeah yes remember I'm I'm a baby in the group and uh Jonathan Livingston Seagull I read when I was young you know that book oh yes that okay wow random yeah I know I just have vivid memories I read it and I was like oh cuz it was that's what a book is my year 2 teacher had a copy of the line the witch in the wardrobe on the shelf behind her desk we also had a little library in the classroom which you could take any book at any time yeah but she had that book behind her desk and it was only when you had proved that you are a strong reader that she would allow you to read that book because she

didn't want you to misunderstand that book you know what I mean like and it became this thing like then when she was like you'd read something and then she would just look at you and say you can go and get L the witch in The Wardrobe was was it actually because of that this was this just a teaching age teaching age to try and make you read more someu but it was certainly a good um a good gimmick to get people to try harder it was like when um you had to get a certain skill in running writing before they'd let you switch from pencil to pen I had to take the pen license twice and that was [ __ ] cuz I took it I passed got my pen license then moved schools and then went he moved into State your Victoria

license doesn't count here yeah I went here's my P license passing it no doesn't work here you got to have to do it all again I said no I got my pen license crap and I feel like I probably would now if if I had to do a w% oh I remember getting kicked out of class in high school cuz the teacher couldn't read my handwriting and that was her response a great solution exactly yeah less school for you what do you mean you haven't learned if you're not going to yeah that's right if you haven't already learned get out it's not my job to improve your skills don't come in here without having learned things I'm not teaching you I could read it just yeah some sometimes can't read mine

now but I I think I don't think there I think handw running probably handwriting today is a lot worse than ours is back then cuz they all have computers in class don't right probably just that's that's why mine's Terri you're not learning that skill and the other one too is sometimes when you do text to speech I'll I'll go I'll tell you know I'll tell my phone you know I'll remind me something or other and then later on I'll look at it and I'll be like the [ __ ] does that say and it's like like boat baby quibbage oh yeah the [ __ ] what was I asking a auto does that for me when I'm typing a quick note yeah yeah for some reason um yeah my phone doesn't like my accent you should just goes don't know what you're saying try doing a Scottish accent I'll give it a try
