Matt have you managed to stick your dick in a popcorn container yet welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All Things nerdy welcome have you I do have some um I do have some sexy popcorn container news yeah going tomorrow to see Dune part two and I will be doing my best to get a a worm popcorn container Denny villan director of said movie Dune 2 or Dune what's it called Dune Dune the return um it's he's come

out and said what the [ __ ] is with that popcorn thing I saw an interview with Rebecca Ferguson where they were talking about she was like what is it and then she looked it up on her phone and she was like oh my God she like wait what how does it and then the girl's like are you put your hand in get the popcorn she's like oh no oh no it's like a flashlight for freaks yeah like I can understand putting your hand in is cool but getting it out oh yeah you just want to leave it in there don't you yeah sing around yeah I really do hope that you do get one so would you prefer a popcorn tin with the den villain worm mouth or the Kyle mlin worm mouth it's just like a flashlight do you

want Stoya or do you want yeah that's right I love this story was your and I love that you know two women who literally were modeled well I'm not don't pretend you had to look that up um if you're going to buy sto don't buy her vagina um she had more than one mold taken the um I think the denu worms are cool in a like creepy way in a way that was was it David Lynch was the other one you gave I yes it with the uh I said Kyle mlin but not that he's responsible for the worm worm yeah I know that one of our listeners has already seen it and says amazing is it somebody we'd expect many to have gone and seen it quickly I was I

got invited to see it yesterday and I just I couldn't but um I'm gonna try to get next week you can go see it at IMAX yeah except that involves crossing the Harbor Bridge which I no longer like doing uh now that I live on the North side I just don't like like your 20s you don't have to pay the toll to cross down you just got to pay it to get back unless that's changed yeah no now it's gone now they've paid for it finally oh there's no tolls at all no to as far as I know they don't take the tolls away no they took the toll away when the M4 had paid for itself and then they put it back didn't they yes at some point yeah for something else yeah well no the toll booths are still gone uh but then there might be that BB thing I remember when I got a nose bleed on the M4 right before

I pulled up to the toll booth and it was it was like in the olden days when it was a human right cuz we're old listen yeah and I literally had to pull up this is in my um my Corolla my little green Corolla that I had in high school like yeah I would have been like 17 or 18 nose started pissing out blood everywhere while I was driving along because probably because it was so [ __ ] hot and I had no in that car and all that yeah yeah my first car didn't have any air conditioning either yeah so I had to pull up which [ __ ] blood everywhere and I'm like it's not on my hand it's all right handing them don't get that on you this is the one time that they should just wave you through like the episode of De Grassi is on you yeah I've got

AIDS I don't think you ever yelled out I've got AIDS I don't think ever yelled out but that was definitely the theme I I wonder would either of your children know what like this action is if you motioning like rolling down a car window oh certainly not they would have no idea would they no well I mean my daughter would know what the this action was if it was yeah I was going to say they're not they don't give a [ __ ] about stuff like that but but I get your point is taken no um in fact people I've met humans who don't know what a cassette tape is yes me too yeah so that's I've actually had to explain to some people in who work in it what a floppy disc is yeah got one this 3D save logo yeah well

even I've shown DM the tape drive for the commodor 64 and they're like oh I didn't know it played music it's not what it's for mate it's not what it's for you put program but also yeah but if you told somebody you could store data on anything that can display a binary code I something on and something not on which could be audio of the data but no nobody's going to understand that who who wasn't there you got one of those double tape decks you could copy a a tape copy copy again yeah yeah I you could listen back to it if you wanted to hear something horrible sounding yeah um my niece has started collecting CDs as a like a retro hipster type thing yeah I've started collecting CDs of

movie soundtracks because I'm there was an incident where um this is you know they' taking away digital things been a a thing they actually movie soundtracks is quite bad in that often the um Studios will only license them under some weird thing where once it's played so many many times it just gets removed like for example one of the Transformers movies right bad movies great soundtrack stun very good oh you're talking about that so I thought you meant the the animated film from the 80s I was going to say bad movie [ __ ] no no no uh one of the one of the Transformers ones the one with Mary Mark I think the first one with Marky Mark I forget I forget the name of it anyway the soundtrack is very good because Steve Jon is very good I liked

it and it was on Spotify until whatever deal it was was like and it's now a lot of soundtracks aren't on Spotify actually today earlier today I was trying to find some uh I think the underworld soundtrack they don't Li also the weird thing that happened with the Scott Pilgrim soundtrack where oh yeah some of the songs were still there but others were no you can't listen to these ones anymore yeah I've been buying CDs for that reason because like do you remember the Queen of the Damned soundtrack yes couldn't be the same as the songs in the movie Jonathan Davis couldn't be on the album due to so he wrote the songs and was the voice the vocalist in this but then they had to get other artists to re record the songs

for the album yeah which did a great job as well do you buy them and then just rip them anyway or well I haven't listen to C yet like the one I think there are some that I have that are technically not um on Spotify like I have the music for dark in theater the Danny Elfman one I don't think that's on Spotify I bought that it was the first thing I ever bought bought from Amazon when Amazon meant pay $60 for a CD and wait two months for it oh no there are some that aren't on there hang on one sec finding out in real [Music] time this will be fun and I will describe them for the listeners who are not viewers hackers hackers not all of these songs are on Spotify mhm I bet you didn't know this existed soundtrack part two oh is that

the score on one and then and then the songs on the other or is it just more songs the score is mostly from songs so yeah they're just songs but these are like other songs that weren't on that first one like it's got Fire Starter remix it's in the movie it's not on the first disc and then this one hackers part three know why music inspired by the movie hackers inspired by fantastic that's great I had to have them when I found out the no of course h yeah that album will not be on Spotify no none of them are people have made playlists cobbled together of the songs that are in the movie that they that you can get but the the actual they're not really on there oh no this week L is a streamyard problem it is Luke you fell off okay

Luke Chow for now um yeah he's gone hopefully he'll be back soon yeah last one in now I hope cuz you started the uh you started the the session I wonder what happens if the person who started the session drops out so fingers crossed that doesn't happened with what is yeah yeah computer AIDS compres so while Luke's gone because he won't be interested in this anyway I hope he's realized and he's not just talking yeah he's just gone he's gone on um I watched something with a very good soundtrack in it this morning I watched first part of a three-part miniseries from 1998 so it's very topical it just occurred to me yesterday remember there was a miniseries called Merlin that starred Sam Neil as Merlin yes yeah welcome back

Luke your turn this time I've changed browsers he's back from the bottom of the ocean I don't think it's that man I think it's I think when when I tried to log in Chrome it did say hey there an issue with chrome at the moment so I log and I am using Chrome so I'm using could be Chrome it yeah complaining about the virtual background so I've just gone with a blur now oh see interesting the only thing I did differently last week was a blur so this week I'm doing no filters that's the only thing I did differently that I thought you know what I've got a blur but it's done by my computer not by streamyard so that's probably what it is so I'll turn off the blur as I think you should yeah you can just look at my green screen please yeah

just to finish I I I suddenly remembered that this existed and that I really liked it when I was young and in my mind over the last 20 to 25 years this had merged with the TV series also called Merlin which had nothing to do with it right right sure in fact when said that I was like no wasn't that a TV series no there was a TV series like 2005 but 1998 three-part mini series very good watch the first part today just good made TV High fantasy yes it is and he's excellent he is excellent but the musical score in it is very cinematic it's um it wasn't anybody that I recognized I thought oh this is going to be someone's name that I recognized but early in their career no no one I recognize weird at the time that se sort of at the height of his career like

Jurassic Park Then goes and does his made for TV series always found that weird even at the time had a good cast though John Gil good Miranda Richardson like it all the kind of the the really good British Rings right yeah um Miranda Richardson's she Lord of the Rings she's um she not I think Sleepy Hollow oh yeah yeah yeah yeah okay I know you mean yeah yeah yeah I think she's passed on now actually yeah could be yeah I know it is like someone else I'm thinking of but yeah I know Queenie you think of Miranda rotto I am thinking of Miranda Otto is she Queeny the person you're talking about Queeny yes Queeny yeah there you go I know who you're talking about now only because you spoke about Black Adder yes I got to rewatch that yeah just watch the first and final episode

of season one and then just be done with that and then just every episode of Every Other season after that yeah yeah that's the last time I tried to watch it I was like oh yeah the first one's that first season is very tough I I actually brought it on Audible and I sometimes will listen to it and the jokes still land and you can still visualize it but then it get to the end and then they talk about the making of it and stuff and it's actually quite interesting that is interesting is it a recording or something or is it just the audio of the show just the audio of the show wow that's fascinating works I used to do that as a kid used to because I didn't have a TV in my room used to tape the audio using it again cassette tape just holding up

well I didn't have like a auxiliary Jack or anything I would literally just put a yeah yeah right in in front of the TV recorders like Fisher Price a little microphone on the I had a real tape recorder mine wasn't Fisher Price but that's still how I did it yeah but just talking about physical media now I it must be because things are starting to disappear and it actually took me a while to stop buying CDs and DVDs DVDs especially and to just go completely digital but now I just more and more want to go back same and every time there's some news article it's like see this is way to do it books as well books are the same yeah like I've got a Kindle here but yeah I listened to a podcast that had an interview with this um woman wrote a

book and basically her whole thing was about people don't read enough which I guess I do agree with people's attention spans I think have suffered due to the internet basically that seems to be fairly true um just talking about people don't read books but then she got really hardcore on it and was talking about how reading on a Kindle doesn't count doesn't count and I and I was like well hang on you lost me there you still consumed the book sorry do you have any evidence that there's a difference between me looking at the words on a Kindle and and I know people even looking at a Kindle's different to a screen screen I mean different but I don't see why it doesn't count I I also think I mean sometimes sometimes when I say oh I read such and such somebody

goes did you read it or did you listen to the audio book well it doesn't matter whether or not the voice in my head is narrating it to me as I look at the word whether sty is doing it I think there's a but you've still read the book you couldn't say you'd be like no no never read it mate got no idea what's in that book The only thing there is a difference in that I find if a book isn't engaging enough I'll actually stop reading it with my eyes whereas if it's an audio book I'll just be ding glaz over like in a sense that's different but then it's not really different CU I wouldn't have been reading it anyway I would have stopped I would have put it down like yeah so was now you're just lost oh meaning while I started to listen to incarcerate

book two of uh GTH mangi pretty funny the first because it's short stories again like the other ones like an anthology the first one he has given up writing and he's become a pilot but he's cursed so that every night his plane crashes and everyone on board dies except for him and people are like could you just not fly the plane anymore and he's like why would I do that he's like you don't know what it's like being cursed to kill hundreds of people every night they're like just don't fly anymore that guy the actor I forget his name he's very funny because he's been doing a live tour in in the sadly oh [ __ ] I was I was trying to see so he's doing this tour and there's clips of it on um on YouTube and that and it was he takes audience questions as GTH mangi

does amazing he's very quick because there was one I was like oh my God that's really good the someone in the audience just stood up and said wible mankind finally returned to the Sea right silly audience laugh and he goes usually in the summer amazing yeah great answer that's fantastic so the whole show is AAR mangi show or he just excerpts from the book as far as I can tell and tell stories and stuff yeah and then Q&A yeah but when he reads excerpts he's in character as the author GTH mangi not as the the comedian yeah amazing always in character I would like to see that yeah it to Australia sometimes they come to Australia yeah I never hear about them until they've already left I think it's more likely he would go to Australia

than come here because no one here has even seen the [ __ ] TV show can't get it here I have to it's closer but it's it's it's further away in terms of St like it's I mean it's on YouTube but like there is no streaming service that has it even Brit box like Miss different it likes own thing America like a remake of it I think that would be quite good yeah it's not where they you lose the humor and they just tell you when to laugh that's right yes yeah yeah it's but it's funny because my my wife's job which I won't say what it is but she's she's the manager of Australia New Zealand and Canada right yeah that's her jurisdiction there's a person who does It in America as well and you would think well why don't they just do Canada rather than somebody from

and so different they're like Canada is more like Australia than America is yeah yeah I believe itz it's still got the ties to yeah our queen or our King now like the British office like and not saying not everybody here doesn't get it but like people it's not the type of humor here I guess culturally but I will admit like they did they find it confusing I think they did do a good job of the US office I think it's its own thing it had to be and they Pro that by first season being just verbatim the British scripts and it just not like as soon as started writing for those characters it was like I learned here when I started working here and dealing with like people people at work people who at work had got to know me less of an issue but I was like doing talking to

clients or something like that the kind of self-deprecating sarcastic humor right that I'm I do I do it all the time maybe less so now because it's like been been uh squeezed out of me but it just doesn't land and times I've told I thought was pretty funny joke in a meeting and it's just dead [ __ ] silence yeah s my life like they just don't know that I'm joking you need to bring a little app on your phone that's a laugh track yeah but then so the the the secret is just don't do it or you have to really lean into it just come out make it super obvious that you're joking yeah yeah yeah it's not just a little bit small it's [ __ ] tiny yeah you can't be subtle like with has like I cannot be jacked off cannot be try it

everyone try it don't say that meetings anymore yeah I said something stupid yesterday but only to myself um so but but I embarrassed myself about how dumb I was but uh we went to MD myself off about it yester went to McDonald's and Harper got a Happy Meal for the the first time first Happy Meal she was or a burger nuggets she doesn't doesn't she can't eat a burger you know I don't no no no no I'm telling you I'm just saying she got barely eats a nugget but um she got a toy comes in the Box well okay so the toy right was this little cardboard um video game cartridge okay

with um Crash Bandicoot on it oh yeah okay and it said Crash Bandicoot memory card game and I was like that's [ __ ] brilliant I couldn't wait to open it and get this memory card out and I'm like but what does it go into PC and then I was like I opened it and all these little cards came out I'm like oh it's a memory card game not a memory card game I thought [ __ ] they have ued the antie on this because they know kids don't know what a memory card is anymore yes so I had to remind myself that like they would write SD card or something that like or just it's just the cloud it's just yeah that's right here's your here's your unless you're on Nintendo because Nintendo hasn't figured the cloud out yet yeah maybe in the switch 3 maybe next year apparently we're getting

a new Switch well they're also talking about getting a new Xbox um this year this how about just get rid of one of the two Xboxes they currently have in the market well they're doing something I think they should have done with the first one so it's gonna it's not like Bry it's going to be like slight improvements but it's going to be basically the series X but without out a disc drive okay oh but they always do that they do bring out a midterm version that's not the first time they've done that so okay I'm I always I always thought it should have been that way when they released it that the X should have been dis not have a disc drive and the S should have had a disc drive I think they got it back to front with the audience yeah I would say so I was gonna say I've got this games

but not series X Games I've got Xbox One X Games on D yeah never a series yeah yeah same can you pop a disc into your Xbox and then play it through the cloud handheld you must oh I've not tried that but yeah yes yes because you should be able to because it just streams from the Xbox correct you're not streaming from if you buy the disc it has to copy the disc onto the hard drive but you you'd have to have the disc in the drive but if the disc was in yeah yeah because it doesn't run off the disc it's basically no difference the disc is basically just DRM yes and and you don't have to download it except you probably do because every

game has a day one patch which is basically the whole game again oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah you can't actually every time I go to play Conan Exiles I have to redownload it because there's a patch that's just the game again yeah but in their defense it's probably been a year since you played it last and they're just trying to give you more every time yeah that's right for free every time yeah we added type of dick that you can no Dan doesn't get the dick no oh that's right I don't get when he brought it he was in Singapore I got the dick I never get the dick I got the dick so if you've ever been in Singapore you never get the dick they [Laughter] know actually I could probably install it on yours and you would have it the

dick you [ __ ] better not install your dick on me Luke put his dick in your Xbox let do it look there's a piece of followup in here I want to know about it says Luke might be able to go to Mars really so okay so we obviously we talked about was it Mars x what was it called Mars One Mars one that's right where they werey to recruit people by Mission a it turned out not to really be a thing anyway and B um you didn't actually fill out the form so you're wasting money but not your time so that's right yeah yeah um you're $30 for the to get the energy form um NASA who was slightly more uh heard of them I've heard yeah they're more accredited than Mars One whoever that is um yeah well yeah depends who

you talk to right Luke's Luke's Luke's people deny that there even is an of mostly successful missions um they are calling for volunteers to live for one year in a Mars situation okay so a Mars like environment in in uh it's the the Texan desert what's the desert in Texas called um the big desert big old desert yeah the the yeah the barbecue sauce desert um in the same type of you've got to put on suit you got to worry about air and food you live in the same kind of uh you know um doile than you see see whether how long it takes for you to all go mad and murder each

other I would love for Luke to be stuck in a in a the Martian style situation where like just by himself yeah yeah but like but he he has to pretend that like it's serious like in the mar there's a oh sure he's going to die right yeah but like if Luke really wants to go on this Mission he has to [ __ ] Pretend This is real yeah yeah heow potato think that it is in the habitat yeah yeah yeah using the waste of his former colleagues that's right I just would I have Xbox yes but you don't you'd only have an Xbox 360 so you could only play games and then no and you wouldn't get any achievements you play for fun

yeah see that that that's where it's got me like I understand I should should be if I can get achievements still I don't know I don't need to play online I was gonna say here's a question you will definitely know the answer to this if you're not online do you still get achievements you still get the achievement it just syns up later yes okay yeah but but you would come back from Mars and just like blast up the ladder potentially yes it would yeah they'd be like oh you're whale behind like my muscles have atrophied but I I am number one in Australia so think I'd still be able to connect i' did still be able to download games it' just be slow wouldn't it the thing is that I Luke would be on another planet or you know in the desert let's say at Le at the very least so I

did escalate that by accident yeah playing nothing but Xbox CU like [ __ ] it the potatoes he'd be like just whatever I'll just drink my own urine and um and he'd come back potatoes in the [ __ ] or they'd still some 14-year-old who managed to somehow be able to spend more time on it and uh and and be ahead of him and the NASA Engineers would be like what's he up to today what do you [ __ ] thinking that's right yeah I mean they' be like we should have put a webcam on him so he could watch his every movement and somebody's like I've locked into uh twitch and I can tell you exactly what he's doing yes give it a crack I I reckon I could I would I'd hate it I like the idea of it

but in what way food how's that yeah okay so in what way practical ways would this differ from your current life because you're not exactly a a guy who goes out a lot oh about growing the food and stuff like that like and how do I I got to set up a a Ste your own alcohol yeah the first thing he's like how do I get drunk if I'm going to do this I need to be loaded so the ship he's like [ __ ] in Orit again he's going to Mars now it's not in the desert anymore he's going to Mars and he gets up into orbit and he's like all right let's crack open a bottle and they're like oh this is a dry Mission let me out let me out eject me now that's why the first thing I do I'm

GNA learn to Jerry rig up a still they've noticed he's he's he's broken into the air ducks style right and he's he's he's dropped down into the med Bay and he's just he's just putting like alcohol wipes like on his tongue just try to absb okay and then don't I don't I believe this is legal I don't know about I think it's legal in some on Mars everything's legal all right so you know it's not legal to distill right yes in Australia certainly here in Rhode Island it's not other states actually it would be in Rhode Island if it wasn't federally illegal I think anyway I can't distill stuff neither can you but what you can do apparently right fine stop me I learned this from an Italian man on YouTube who I follow for cooking stuff if you cooking stuff

ferment it's called monio meth I foret what he started with but basically you ferment quite a strong wine right then you uh put it in bottles and you freeze it right overnight the next day you invert the bottles into another container let drain the liquid that comes out almost immediately then just [ __ ] the ice off M do it again do it again again you are rid of everything except the alcohol alcohol and you can make rum Ian that sounds like a lot of effort I've got a Dan Murphy's membership and they deliver so there you go you could potentially do that you would just need some yeast so maybe if amarath is on the mission with you you imagine that imagine you got you on a

solo Mission to Mars and they were going to send you we're GNA send you someone and he's like finally a companion somebody I can talk to somebody I can engage with and they're like it's amaranth You' be like send me home [ __ ] off and tell her to wash her [ __ ] vagina before she gets here I want to clarify in case listeners don't know what I'm talking about and they think I'm just saying dirty no no no she made beer from her her her yeast yes that's why I made that joke and sold it that is dirty I'm sorry you're but don't be like oh she's not dirty it's just that she you can drink her vagina juice like no that's [ __ ] filthy mate I didn't mean for it to be like a misogynist joke I'm judging a specific thing that she did I would judge a man

if they did that as well quite honestly exactly yeah show me a man that's done it I'll judge him I saw a poster online and of course there's no guarantee that these things are real that you see but the the fact that some put it there and it tickled them makes me think that maybe it is but it was it was a run for gender equality and but the finish line for men was further than the finish line for women right which I thought was funny if it's true if it's not well then it's less funny could be one of those internet things I think it is all right so Luke's going to Mars I'm going to see Dune what are you doing this weekend Dan oh I would have seen Mary Poppins but it's racist that's right what need a parent to guide me and I'm an orphan so

I had to look up what the problem was with this and then even when I saw it I was like I wouldn't have known that was racist no I wouldn't known that you're not allowed to say the word can we even say it on this podcast I don't know that's what I when I I was like maybe we shouldn't say you know what I'm going to say it and if you want to come at me internet you can come at me the word is hot tot yeah which they also say in The Wizard of Oz really um because the Cowardly Lion says what makes the hoton Tot so hot huh who put the a in apricot I would not have known in a million years that was a racist thing I just it just sounds like a funny word to me I think it's only racist because it's incorrect like I don't think people go you're a filthy hot and tot I think it's

just that we colonized parts of Africa and started misnaming the tribes there instead of using their real name says it's it's a racially insensitive term for the South South African indigenous group the Coco so okay yeah I think it's like calling it an Inuit an Eskimo sure like it's not racist okay it's not racially charged it's just insensitive because it's not the right word Native American Indians yeah okay yeah so is it just so does it change anything it's just going to be like he's a warning he's the rating of the film has been changed to PG from G presumably where it has been for 60 years forever like yeah maybe more I know about 60 years yeah it came out in 64 so exactly 60 years my math is sound

is [ __ ] dead on yeah oops good job me uh yeah okay I I wouldn't honestly even if I watched it I would not have noticed because like I said that word I don't I'm not sure I did watch this at the end of last year you're talking about how hot she is yeah she's beautiful she's [ __ ] beautiful and there's a whole song where he's like singing about he wants to bang her and her verses are all about how she knows that she can be saved with him because he's he's never going to touch her right and he's like they knew she was beautiful yeah he's like I want to make him perfectly clear that I would touch you yeah he looks at the audience through the camera and goes this is the actor Dick Van like talking now I would 100% hit that you to

know okay well it's sort of not going to change because I probably wasn't going to watch it anyway and I'm old enough to watch it so yes no I just thought it was interesting good movie um yeah yeah I watched something the other day on Disney that had one of the one of the warnings oh Dumbo it was Dumbo okay yeah but you know what El I discovered about Dumbo not a very good movie oh hang on the new one or the old one no the old one the old one yeah the old one yeah just wasn't very good really like we're watching a lot of Disney at the moment some of them are some of the best movies ever made this is not one man good movie that was excellent that was dead set excellent neither did I good stuff you know there one thing that's odd about this to me right they changed it from G

to PG which presumably the point of that would be only older kids can watch it like no kids I got know what the [ __ ] that that no adults are if it's Parental Guidance because you want kids to go Mommy what's a hot and tot the answer is going to be like no [ __ ] idea son no sure the people who used to say that that is a word yeah that's right from a long long time ago it was probably an outdated word when they made that movie because I think the person who says it is that old Colonial Admiral who lives on the roof and he's supposed to be spouting out ofd old retired General stuff supposed to sound like a crazy old man yeah it's just I I just think the changing of the rating is an odd choice because it's not going to make any difference nobody knows no no no

something just wait it just occurred to me why this is racist and it is okay you know you know when he says it no it's when the kids have been in the chimney and they've got soot on their faces and he says you look like hot and tots or something to that effect okay so actually that probably is racially charged if you if you think about it there you go swap the word out for another word and suddenly you can understand why it's PG now pet yeah who is just he's just covered in so as we've yeah to be very clear had a Dutchman on here yeah who who yeah that's right well L you were saying you changed your stance on blackface you want to Enlighten us I think he said something about saying it on the show Chang what else do we have fin wake two again I

did I'll say this talking to me I haven't started it yeah you gotta play um you do have to play it it's very first one first I never finished no you don't yeah well well you don't it does help yeah to tell you what you should do go and watch all the cutcenes on YouTube should do that because Alan Wake because is a bit of a SLO if I recall if Alan Wake one didn't have one of the best written stories of any video game and just had that tedious ass combat the whole way through the story it's the combat that just made me go they fixed that into yeah so 2010 when it came out I got it played it and quit like like a quarter of the way in because I was like this is boring like the combat is I really found combat boring in particular

great and when I played it again last year the master I still felt it tedious but the story was good enough to propel me whereas the sequel It's it's more story less combat and they've made the combat it's it's essentially the same thing torch to get rid of their kind of Shadow Armor and then you shoot them with a gun but there many you could actually run past a lot of them sometimes yeah yeah yeah you couldn't do that in the first one you could not avoid it you had to wait everyone otherwise it would let before it let you progress yeah I could just run through the run past them not worry about and then the in fact it's your torch better and better now I'll say this the only thing that changes in the second playthrough is you get a

different cut scene for the ending at the end so I wouldn't necessarily recommend a second play through unless you just loved it so much you wanted to play through it again you could just watch the cut scene just watch the cut scene on YouTube presumably yeah and it's not all well I guess it's different to the first one but it's still just the same people in the same room having a conversation it's just that they say something different right so it's not vastly different it's just that the outcome is is changed I still enjoyed playing it but I started going oh wa I've still got to do that whole section like it's you know like straight away after it was but anyway I finished it I liked it I don't need to Play It Again you've just reminded me of something that I need to

mention it but I will wait until you finish talking about Alan Wake to because I finished talking about Alan Wake too yeah I was just going to point out two other quick remedy related things which is if they have promised a max pay remake that's in the works which is good because I would love to replay that but it just looks rudimentary yeah I could you could not go back and play it that original as is now remake and not just an up scale it would have to be one it would have to be yeah yeah no I'm not interested in that and yet I'm halfway through the original Silent Hill the PS1 version at the moment and it is still as good as it was on day one and in fact the the clunky controls and the the shitty resolution just add it's it's genius it's genius

that that adds to the experience instead of detracts from it so that's that's the exception that proves the rule but also remedy have just purchased the rights to control back from the publisher I didn't yeah I didn't know that they well the publisher retains certain copyright when you get them on board so they can't publish without you but you can't do a game without them and they've now they now own the right 100% they paid millions of dollars for it yeah right so I guess we're getting control too which I'm looking forward to that be pointless buying I like control one yeah and now well now if you look at it is this whole big world that's now yeah there things in control that I'm like they've really extrapolated like when you in the first

time you ever enter the house in control there's paintings on the wall one of them is the [ __ ] janitor who's like a main character in Alan Wake 2 amazing I'm liking this [ __ ] and I'm the first person to say don't link up all your stuff Marvel style you know like but this works very well yes Marvel's been having some uh trouble lately I'm interested see hell they're GNA do I haven't even seen the last movie Marvel has that's the problem yeah no no I didn't see that either I go back to what they should have done end game we're done we'll see it again in a few years and we'll restart you know what's funny though Marvel changed their demographic slightly to try and Target a wider def demographic and failed a little bit Yeah and um

to stop beating around the bush the the their decision was more female leads will bring more females into the theater and they found that to be absolutely not the case yeah right doesn't seem to be doesn't seem to be the case but ironically other Studios who have tried to copy that I.E Sony with not what's it called Madam web um in its entire run so far still hasn't made even what morus made in its first weekend like they are going [ __ ] bankrupt over this I mean that's not I mean from what I understand I haven't seen the movie but it's not just like not just because they're female leads it's apparently it's just [ __ ] I mean morus was also [ __ ] what I'm saying is they they're following that model

that's trying to be what Marvel tried to do yeah and other people are copying them and also failing for the same reasons I think Sony you just need to just give up and just go here you can have Spider-Man back just sell it Marvel will buy it yeah I thought that craving the hunter trailer looked awful too so yeah they just need to sell it you'll make more money than what you're doing by trying to make your own movies because it's not working Sony made some great Spider-Man movies when when it was their time to do it well some some news on that I've put that I put this article in because I forgot to put it in before but um oh yeah hello this is an interesting right Hayden what's his name Thomas Hayden Church right the guy who played Sandman

in Spider-Man 3 and and Ned in Ned and Stacy the old sitcom if you remember that's I know him from yeah same he was being interviewed uh just about something else and they were talking about comic book movies and then he dropped this little little hint right he said um you know I think I think Sam's going to do another Spider-Man with Toby Maguire and that's that's the one that they had an for me to do Spider-Man 4 and I'm still technically I still have an option for that so I'm sure if they're going to have me back but he's he's like I mean he was the least interesting villain in the least interesting of the movies but sure no but he presumably would know if yeah that was something I guess so unless there's certain I mean I don't know this

minations of of Hollywood deals but maybe they have to keep certain things open if they ever just want to do anything again and so they have to still pay this guy every five years a check or something just to right keep him mind so they not [ __ ] with their licensing yeah yeah but the way he said it was he go I he's like I think I think he's doing another one with to McGuire and then and then the you know when they did um was the no way home right they brought back all those characters and everybody everyone was like oh man we miss those movies so yeah like now would be the time if you're going to do that like also wait just [ __ ] do it right now's the time Sam is not getting any younger and those actors aren't getting any younger yeah Toby's not going to be

able to do it for much longer those Spider-Man movies thing I I don't like the third one as much as the other two but it's one of those ones where I thought the second one was maybe even better than the first one like it it's just they they were great they were great great adventure movies yeah I'd love it if did another one but yeah yeah why not he always wanted to do uh the vulture remember that was joke that I was going to play the vulture yeah K stole my role well I think it it might be time to bring your vulture back the as in thumbnail form excellent um I wanted to mention a game that I was playing um I was we get a lot of press release emails

and normally there's just so many and and this one really caught my attention right and I'm gonna tell you what the premise of this is okay it's an adventure game a pixel art Adventure game on the switch well it's on other platforms too actually but I'm playing it on the switch MH where you play a character who dies at seven minutes to eight and then you start again but things are subtly different every time and you have to figure out what the [ __ ] is going on huh and that sounds very cool you basically have um he dies at uh yeah 7:57 and I think you wake up at like 25 past seven so and every time you exit a

room and enter a new room time Ticks by yeah and there are certain events that always happen at exactly the same time but there are also other events that may or may not happen on one particular cycle through so you've got time to sort of even people and in the world can be different every time too okay very cool yes okay what is this game called oh sorry did I not say it's called 3 minutes to eight three minutes to eight okay it's like 15 bucks on uh on us on Steam and on the Nintendo switch store uh it's really good it's really cool I never played there's a game called 12 minutes right I've heard of yes where you respawn and live the same 12 minutes and have different things to yeah I think it sounds a bit like that with that one that 12 minutes it was

basically you yeah you you could do different things whether you'll make dinner for your wife but then something happens and then you remember what happens and so you you and yeah you're trying to work out the story and it's just that was a good game as well this is very much like that and I I enjoyed that one as well so come to Xbox excellent this look exellent who made this H it's I think just one guy yeah he um even a little message pops up at the start which I was at the first I was like a it's a little pretentious but um sure I think he's like a Scandinavian guy but then I started playing it I'm like oh no this is this is good like uh Playstation Nintendo bring it to Xbox and we'll talk it's all right I'll play it on Nintendo

no problem looking for stuff to play on the switch looking for excuses the reason I um reason I thought of it is because you had said about Alan Wake there are there are a [ __ ] ton of different endings to this game is on Xbox oh it is oh it is it is there you go check it out came out December I'm going to buy this MH yeah it's a cool game really cool what's the cost on Xbox 2245 oh yeah that'll teach you to live in Australia so did you say it was $3 for you Matt no I was just messing oh yeah it's $4.99 American yeah yeah I mean conversion wise it's probably the same yeah the same yeah remember that remember that uh when they released was it Borderlands finally came to steam and

they accidentally put it at 40 bucks was just the same as us price and everyone like lost their [ __ ] because they were like Oh I thought they were more expensive because of shipping or whatever and then they increased it yeah they were like oh yeah you're right it is here you go yeah good point good point pay more the Third Run look good run number eight I'm just looking at the achievements yeah it's good for uh you know like a little indie game you can pop it on on switch in particular you pop it on play through a little bit turn it off come back to it in a bit yeah or do what Luke's gonna do find a guide and just run through it all yeah yeah I still enjoy games that way so how you played through blue did you need a guide for that I'm assuming I did wait

you did you did not it was some of the plants oh that's right we talked about this yeah like how I to a grew and then I had to Still Water another five times how am I meant to know that you know figured that out your a child my child but in Luke's defense she was just running around watering plants just doing stuff not need watering either knew yeah yeah we watched a bit of blue this morning in fact we watched the same episode four times today because when it ended my daughter would say pass the parcel again and we' have to roll it back that's to watch L Dad yeah L calls it Lucky's dad's rules we watch that and then we either watch flat pack which is a good episode that's a great is that the one where they go

through the whole evolution of of mammals yeah it's amazing yeah and blue and bingo with the mom and the daughter and yeah it's great it's fantastic they start out in the sea and then they they get they get legs and they get on land and then they go into the trees and then they become bipedal and they're playing as their parents are assembling a like a a swing up on Ikea thing yeah Ikea thing and they they use the packaging to construct the stuff that they're doing it's really good does that one getting new episodes soon I know and a 28 minute long episode M and the other one is housework we have to watch a lot yes yeah yeah you done for the day Aya look at this when they walk from one end of the room to the other in their normal walk

are start working again yeah yeah it's got to watch it Le you gotta watch it I've played the game that's enough I just don't have the little person to did you like the game game Luke doesn't like that's not how Luke even plays games it's not worth asking him if be like yeah that's right achiev got the it I'm not sure I got any achievements in my second playthrough of Alan Wake you don't I got 100% of them in one playthrough did you did you get all of them no I didn't and actually there was there was things like part of the game that I was like no because there's things I assume you know collect every single one of this one specific thing and it's like was collecting them set them up yeah and

then it was like at a certain point in my second I was like no they don't like I was it's cool story stuff but you don't need that to yeah do you get an achievement for patting every moose head on the wall I figured you must because she makes a point of it every every room she goes into and and and um I think you do I know you get one for padding the dog yes I got the padding the dog one yeah I got that the first time too that was very that very cool because you're wondering how that pays off like all those all those little mayoral booths and stuff and then and and that's that's a miserable achievement as well oh yeah because you'd have to go back to watery for no reason or just to mop up other yep you know go back and unlock some gates that

you couldn't before just go mop up yeah just go t Peaks the return yeah I put that on last night Matt the return yeah and I I watched about 10 minutes of two dudes just unloading a truck and I was like what is this [ __ ] David Lynch is so there was no music there was no dialogue it was just a guy pulls up a truck to another guy's house and together they just [ __ ] unload some stuff off I'm like you going to cut away to something or make this cinematic or dramatic in any way it's so funny to think back now like because I I I found it to be very good but people were super disappointed because do you know you know Karm Glen right he was he's back right yeah yeah

and everyone was like more Dale Cooper can't wait but he's not Dale Cooper in it you know that right no Dale Cooper gets trapped at the end of Twin Peaks in like the the the the black uh what's the thing called the Jesus Christ the room with the red curtains right he gets trapped oh yeah sure yeah and um in return bur the clues yes he comes back through a power outlet but he's not Dale Cooper He's douge a mentally disabled man who lives in Las Vegas and it takes literally in the last episode he gets his memory back and he's like they Cooper and at the time it was he like bring me my morning coffee but then I literally fell in love with doggy as a character right and I don't it's hard to

explain here's the thing though because halfway through season two of twin pigs that character stopped being relevant anyway because he had solved the mystery he had come to the town to solve and then they had to just find reasons for him to still be there the Black Lodge that's what it black LOD he gets trapped at the end of season two right yeah yeah if you don't know what that is I can't explain it you just have to watch the show and even then you won't understand understand you'll know but you won't understand understanding is not the point yes and once you know that about any David Lynch movie like I remember I saw m Holland Drive and I was like loving it until it ended and then I was like that can't be the end you haven't told me what this movie is about yet and

uh yeah that's right but like every scene in that movie is a perfect scene but it leaves you so unsatisfied because you want there to be a a a reason behind it as opposed to him just going it's dream logic it doesn't make any sense and you're like no not good enough tell me what it is because he said he's always like no there is and then they go is it this is this and he goes I'm not going to tell you yeah like God damn it damn it dude I just realized though that that old man the logger the brother of the old woman who owns the the mill yes is eraser head wait what hang on oh yeah wait hang on a

minute I think you've broken mat yeah no it blew my mind when I realized it too huh cuz I was looking at the name I'm like I forgot David doovy was in it oh yeah yeah he doesn't come back in the return does he because that would entice me to watch it you know what as that same transite yeah I don't remember oh that's right yeah a trans and that would have been before xfiles right probably yeah it was must have been yeah but but only like a one or two years before in fact he probably was probably got xfiles because he suddenly had a decent string of episodes on Twin Peaks Twin Peaks is great anyway I couldn't watch fir walk with me because I was going to watch

that first but then I realized it's it's it's all the it's all the characters and plot points that I don't like or that I like the least which is the father and and you know Laur like that that and the love triangle and all of that was the least interesting stuff to me about Twin Peaks the reason it's interesting is because of what happens in the return okay and there's some stuff in there that's actually quite like I remember when when watching the return going oh wow like okay yeah okay that's set that up [ __ ] what 40 years ago like nice interesting okay okay maybe maybe we'll see I've got to watch two more episodes of Merlin before I go back to that so I just finished watching uh the latest

season of drive to survive ah wow man you get through that quick well watch survive I mean it's yeah sure yeah there only 10 I've got to get on that yeah I don't know what I'm watching lately it's nothing interesting at all it's just filler fill a television I had to watch drive to survive before the first race of the season that's my that's that was your thing right yeah yeah whereas I look forward to the football starting tomorrow that'll be my sports thing oh okay it's funny because KO the sports channel here um L you probably do the same because it's $25 a month you can't keep it going year round you just cancel it whenever you're out of season for your sport right but it knows because like it's texting me all

week on F1 Stars this week Danny you haven't signed back up yet yeah I getting the same thing that I just signed up for it yeah I'll be like I'll sign up on the [ __ ] day mate because I don't want to put this on before yeah I get I've prob we talked about this before I get the F1 TV here and it's 50 bucks for the year and I get oh I get for the whole season yeah and plus um you know you go watch old stuff they've got like little Doos about ET and center and yeah right stuff oh there is a new doco about an and Center coming yeah so yeah it's pretty good I was surprised by how cheap it was because I pay a lot more than that for the [ __ ] AFL which hardly anybody

watches so maybe I think I think yeah it's not available in Australia because KO and foxel yeah share the RS to it so yeah that's that's why we have over here except through foxtail so that's why I have to pay them 170 bucks a year or something it's actually weird the game that's playing playing closer to Matt than it is to us what oh this isn't the Las Vegas game is it this is the Las Vegas game oh okay this is bunnies versus who bunnies versus Manley that's this week Manley wow in Vegas and then roosters and Broncos they both back that's not just an exhibition match that actually no that's kicking off the season that's round one that is interesting I did not know that see playing two games and then so

two games tomorrow and then the other games start was Thursday next week right which I think is to give them time to be able to fly back to be ready for round yeah I watched a pretty good movie this week I'll just say in the last you know one minute that we've got before we go into the Afterparty I watched a movie called The Dead Center which stars and is executive produced by Shane kth of primer Fame oh very cool uh but he didn't write or direct this he just stars in it and I think he I think it was just a I think this is the only movie just some young director and he read the script and he was like I'll put my name on this so that you can get this made yeah right um very good Luke don't bother they I've just seen a couple of pictures and I do not want to watch this

they're just they just no I'm just saying don't bother because they don't really give you a good good enough explanation the dead center dead center he's he's a like a psychiatric doctor in an emergency Ward and um they get this patient in with mysterious stuff happening interesting have you seen um we might have talked about this is the what's it called this the autopsy of Jane do no but you did tell me to watch that you definitely should watch that it's [ __ ] incredible Luke don't bother maybe okay got it got it on the list now okay great really really good

really really creepy excellent yeah really good atmosphere I don't get creepy you don't get creepy no you used to get creepy when we were younger oh yeah get creepy with mate you know where I do get creepy yeah I do yeah where's that yeah yeah the mobile Quicks at warington oh the gorilla not the anymore no G dogs the second they got gorilla dogs second they got rid of cheese through gorilla dogs that place went downhill I've only ever had one of those after drinking at the Henry Lawson Club yep drunk and the quick cinu planes as well oh the mackers and I used to like it because magement never minded us hanging around there because I remember

once they did ask they spoke to Le the guy who worked there went like can you not have him hang around as bad and we didn't and they got robbed yes and then they sort of went yeah it's fine for you to hang around you never caused any problem no we just hung out outside we smoking near the pumps was probably not a great idea we smoked a lot didn't we right out so that was just a thing that you used to have I mean not at the pumps but I don't think they'd let you do it probably shouldn't smoke around them at all really yeah exactly I mean someone steps in petrol at the at the pump and walks into the thing and you know probably just shouldn't have done it yeah but I remember they used to give us like let us just refill like if you know you bought a slurpie that just let you

go and refill it yep unlimited slushies I'm just reading standing there reading their magazines I feel like that whole shopping complex had we had like benefits at almost place in it like the Domino you know Wayne or whoever somebody was always working at The Dominoes Bill worked at The Dominoes the Domin and what he this is what I learned about dominoes from Bill to my advantage and our advantage was that during rush hours they always make extra of standard pizzas like Hawaiian blah blah blah blah yeah hungry well Hungry Jacks or Burger King now sure did that too but if they just because they don't want to get a bottleneck so they just got couple already run but they throw them out yeah so if you go to the back door and you knock and you goes bill here no or how

about like anyone I know and then they'd be like yes You' be like going to throw out any pizzas soon like the mo the amount of pizzas I ate like on the Bonnet of my car parked in the car parked behind that Domino's yeah it's um really not meant to do at Hungry Jack when you made a burger you had to tick off on the wrapper uh it had like 5 10 15 20 20 like five minute increments of the hour you had to mark on it when you made it yeah and I think it was 20 minutes it could be in the warmer right and then it goes into a bucket M and like that bucket I mean obviously at the end of the night it's too late right but if you can if you can inter those on the way to the intercept yeah yeah got it it's it's

a 20 minute old like I also learned from bill um they didn't have parmes and cheese but enough people asked for it that they would tell them sure they will put on there and you [Laughter] $1 do you know what else charges you a dollar the after party no the after part is five but $1 gets you this show early every week get you get it delivered to your inbox the the video in the audio version for five bucks a we a month did I say week not a week a month yeah $1 a month for that five bucks a month gets to the after party where we're going to keep talking for sometimes up to half an hour 15 20 minutes happens um we just
