OK, so I went to the doctor this week. Good. And I got in trouble. OK, what have you done? I wasn't wearing my boot moon boot on my leg. Oh, are you supposed to wear that? Well, yeah, because last year just before Christmas, I did this really cool trip and flip type of thing. And oh, that's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Did my Achilles. Right. And then there you went. Look, put yourself in a boot, book yourself in for a scan.
Right. And come back and then we'll work out what to do, whether you need an injection or something. I couldn't get into like last week for a scan. Oh, geez. Yeah. But in that time, my legs started hurting more than my ankle. So I went well, why am I wearing the boot when I'm in more pain in my legs? You've got to move the boot around. Yeah, yeah, OK. And it's heavy because my leg's not left leg's not exactly the shape this leg around.
And yeah, I've got in a lot of trouble for not wearing it because I could have caused more damage. Right. Well, right. Well, so lesson learned. Probably not. No I know I have started wearing it again. Haven't put my follow up appointment with the doctor to see if he wants me to do where if I get a cortisone injection and where. I know. Well, they've got two options. They can do it directly into the tendon which has. Tendon means penis, yes.
Yes, but there's a problem where that might rupture the tendon penis. Jesus. Or they sort of do it next to it so I need to go back and find out what their plan is. All right, Yeah, You don't want to rupture your penis. No, no. So I assume you don't. I know there might be people who are into that. People are into injecting stuff into their balls to make them huge. No, don't remind me. Don't remind me. Welcome to Multiple Nerd Gasm, a comedy show about all things
nerdy. All right, look, I'm Matt and that's Luke. We have to do this now because we took the names out of the intro to avoid any future complications. Oh yes. Although if one of us leaves, the podcast is in big trouble. We're in a lot of trouble then, but don't worry, I have plans on going nowhere, so maybe you just be listening to me Babble. OK, All right. Yeah, I don't have plans. Yeah. No, no, I don't. Well, yeah, Dan didn't either. But you know, no shit happens,
so. Yep, we've got a bit to talk about this week, mainly because we weren't here last week. Yes, we do. We do. Speaking of just Speaking of rupturing penises and whatnot, just quickly just reminded me there's a podcast I've been listening to. You'll understand why this reminded me of it in a minute. I found a podcast. I don't think I've talked about this yet. It's called Small Town Dicks. Have I talked about this? No, you haven't. OK, it's a cool podcast.
It's about basically detectives in small towns and stuff throughout America telling stories about cases and stuff like that. It's really interesting. And one of the hosts, like the main host narrator slash person, the voice was so familiar when I first put it on that it was freaking me out. I was like, who is this person? Does the name Yardley Smith mean anything to you? I know the name. You. Yeah, you do. You do. Where do I know it from? She's the voice of a character
you will be very familiar with, a little yellow skinned cartoon girl with a Pearl necklace and spiky hair. I still not. Her dad says don't. Oh, that's. Lisa. Lisa Simpson. Yeah. Toasted by Lisa Simpson. See, that's suddenly the third thing I have known her to be in. I've known her in three things. Oh, all right. I've known her in Herman's head. OK, sure. Yeah, yeah. The Simpsons and now that. Apart from that, I have no idea.
I thought you. Were going to say the three things you do in before The Simpsons and I was like what the fuck? No one thing before The Simpsons, and that was Herman's head. OK, cool. But anyway, it's a good podcast and the reason that Armani was because there was an episode about this poor fucking guy in California who owned a a legal grow operation. He sold weed legally and these fuck wits got it into their head somehow, like the like, not this was not true, but somehow they got it into their head from
setting up cameras and watching him and tracking him that he had buried $1,000,000 in the desert. And so they kidnapped him, drove him out into the desert, demanded he tell them where the money was. And when he and he said, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. There's money in the safe at my work, just take me there and I'll give it to you. Yeah. And then they cut his Dick off. Oh. My God. And took it with them so that. It can't be reattached. It's it's gone good, Yeah.
I was like, I'll take you to where the actual money is. I was like, don't tell me crimes like that happened. Jesus Christ. But yeah, well, they and it'll just like some, I guess the ringleader was just like this psycho idiot guy who was just, I don't know, got into his head that the guy had buried $1,000,000 and he and he was like, why would I bury $1,000,000 in the desert? What are you talking about? Yeah. Have you heard of it being a bank? Bank like if you heard of a bank, a safe like why would I
risk this? He was. Like what are you talking about so. Yeah, you know what? There's more chance he'll be finding out buried in the desert. Guns. That guy's Dick. Have you seen? Oh no, I've seen some of those prepper shows, these guys, and they'll go and they'll just bury weapons in places. So when they're, yeah, when they're travelling, they'll be able to stop here, you know, no, this is a supply station for us and we'll just bury all these
guns and ammunition here and. It's fucking dangerous. Yeah, those just depress me. They do because there are some people who actually there was even 1 who'd like, she seemed quite intelligent, but she was convinced that they was going to, they were going to run out of petrol and she had a prep bag ready to go and she was going to like just get out of the city. Once that happened and everyone started fighting each other and she was a lawyer or something like. Yeah, remember there was one who was like a bit a big guy, overweight guy, and he had a bag set up and everything like that.
And he for the show, he was like, OK, we're going to do a test run. He put a car outside the city limits because he knew traffic would be bad when whatever went down went down. And so they followed him with a camera and he was like jogging through the city. Stuff like that he didn't make. It you need to do a bit more prepping, be able to run. Yeah, yeah, He didn't make it so. Oh, the other one that made me laugh too. I've never talked about this before, but maybe it was a while ago.
It was the guy who built this bunker and then he built a special radio with a, a Faraday cage around it. So there's an EMP that wipes out all the, he was like, is it going to be an EMP? It's going to wipe out everything in North America. And I'm going to be the only person with the radio. And then the, the guy with the, the microphone, like the camera person goes, who are you going to talk to on the radio? And the guy was like fucking genius. But it's scary that these people are building this and believing this.
Yeah, yeah, but then I mean, look at what else people believe on the Internet. Well, actually in Vietnam there are bunkers sort of everywhere around because they needed them when they're being bought. I was going to say, yeah, they they had a better use for them. Yes, yeah, those bunkers are in the US for, for, for from the Cold War. Cold War. Yeah, There's a, we went to this fucking awesome bar in Arizona somewhere, I forget which where in Arizona, but it was like a, it was literally a nuclear bunker and it was incredible. Like, I mean, it was, you know,
just a bar, but like, the building was incredible. Yeah, but I remember seeing the reports that they don't actually know how many bunkers actually exist because people were building them in secret because their neighbors. No, no in America. In the US, yeah. Because they didn't want their neighbors to know that they were building this. Because they were. They wouldn't have enough supplies if the entire neighborhood rocked off. There are ones I've seen photos of ones like in, you know, like in movies, like I can't remember
the name. There's two movies at least that pop to come to mind I can't remember the names of, but where it's a nuclear bunker where you go down and it looks like you've got an outside and everywhere, everything. And it's got like like fake grass and trees painted on the walls and there's like a pool down there and stuff. I've seen photos of these things and it's just like fucking hell. A. Lot of time and money. I saw a documentary, I don't think, I think it was on YouTube. I think it was an actual
documentary about people who buy space in those bunkers. Now there's all the beta missile silos that they convert into apartments and stuff. Yeah, Yep. That's fascinating. It's sort of, yeah. They're expecting it to happen, so they're spending a lot of money to go and live in luxury, you know? Yeah, yeah, it looks like a resort. It's like literally like a fucking resort inside a underground. So yeah. And I was like, you know, if there was a apocalypse, that'd
be the place to be. I don't know like. A vault. A Fallout vault without the the mental torture. Yeah, but you got to remember the people you're in there with. Like there's no, yeah, you can't choose from them. Yeah, true. Yeah. But like, there's nothing outside. You see, I just prefer to just just Take Me Out to begin with. Yeah. All right. Just nice and quick. OK, yeah, fair enough. Have you watched the new season
of Fallout? I'm about halfway through. OK I haven't watched it yet. I keep forgetting I'm so bad at watching stuff lately. I'm so bad at watching sequels like second seasons of stuff. Yeah, yeah. I haven't seen the second season of yet and I know it's good. Of which? And or. Oh, and or yeah, No, I haven't watched that either. Good point. I watched Night Manager season 2. That was excellent. Well, no, it was excellent. It was.
It's a little odd. Don't talk about this already. Yeah, yeah, I'm sure I did. Yeah. It's sort of like how it's set, like they've filmed a sequel for something that was done years ago and then just sort of, yeah, rewrote the sort of venue type of thing to. Keep it going for season 1 was based on a book and it was a complete story and then now it's they've continued the story and it's kind of like OK, let's just. I'll let you off a little bit. Just sandpaper over those little edges there that don't make sense because the story is
supposed to be over. Yeah. Yeah. And I've been watching a lot of Shits Creek. Yep, which is very funny. I can't believe I didn't watch it before, but I watched a movie that I've been wanting to watch for a while. I guess which movie? I don't know. Yeah, OK. It's in that list there. Predator Badlands. I did watch Predator Badlands. How is it? Because I've been wanting to watch that. I didn't like it.
Oh, OK. I was very disappointed. I. Still not like it this one. This is it's Dan Trachterberg again, which is he did like 10 Cloverfield Lane and he did pray and he's done, you know, well, he originally the the first thing he did was that portal short film that got a lot of attention. I think that's how he got got started then making films. So he deserve Jeff Kinada's friend. They used to do a show together, but it's the one with is Elle Fanning the the one from the Great, the one of the fannings?
One of the fannings, Yeah, she's an Android in it. It's got Waylon Utani heavily featured in it. Which? Yeah, it's all a bit like. The trailer decent. It's about the. Yeah, the Android tried to help the Predator get back and. Yeah. And so the things that put me off about it immediately are that it's very, it's very CGI heavy action in a way that I'm like, OK, I don't, I'm not that into that. Like, I don't know. I just my brain switches off when it's like 2 computer
characters fighting like I'm not. And there's, there was a lot of that at the start. And then also, I think making the predator the protagonist and making him empathetic or making a Predator like or a Yao, what are they called? Yaoja, as apparently we're calling them now. OK, I. Don't know, like in Predator, it's just a it's they just don't, doesn't have a name. It's a fucking scary alien that just wants to kill you right when you start giving it. Humanizing them. Yes, it's like the good guy in
this and it has like a an arc and it becomes like, you know, like it doesn't kill the thing that it came to the planet to kill because it spoilers, sorry, because it it learns. I don't know it's just it's I didn't like it. It's just not what not what my predators are supposed. To do back to the last part of the movie, that was great. Prey was really good. Prey was. And it was so strange too, because Prey was literally, yeah, this thing comes from space and it just tries to fucking kill you all. Yes.
And he made a movie that was like that. And then he went, you know what? All right, now we're going to make that thing friendly. And it's like, no, what are you doing? If they can't be friendly? It's weird now. Like it makes the whole, it makes the whole thing weird, I think, because then you've got to ask too many questions about like when I watch Predator now, I'm like, what's he thinking when he's trying to kill Arnie? You know, he's just, he's not his fault, you know, he's just his tribes making him. It's like, no, don't stop.
It do they come, they hunt, they kill, they take their trophies and they leave. Yes, and they don't really. I think they work better when they don't have an elaborate back story about how their brother got murdered and fucking all this stuff. Like really, yes, I don't know. It just didn't work for me. I it's been very popular, so I I'm wrong obviously, but it's didn't. Work for Happy with another Prey like movie. That's what a Predator movie for me. Yeah. Person just personally, yeah.
Yeah, they're a monster. They got character. No, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, Oh well, I might give it a try like. The aliens like Aliens. If you there's an aliens movie about how there's an alien who was like, I don't want to eat people's faces. And then he goes on a quest to like, help an Android help a Waylon Utani Like no. Actually, that'd be funny. Oh, and also they they did say that because obviously Waylon, you tiny being in it also was like, I'm like, why is this happening?
Like we're now like, why are we forcing these two fucking things together? I know that it's been a thing. I know. For a very long time. I know, but then but he he said in an interview that there was a very, very good reason. And like, I mean, no, you wrote, you wrote the plot that they're there. Like it's not there was a very it's not. I don't know. It's I felt like it wasn't like a light bulb moment where it's like, Oh yeah, this makes sense. It was just like, no, you just thought this would be cool,
like. You just needed a way to force the Android in. Yeah, and like, I don't know. It's not for me. Amazing score, I'll say that. Yeah, yeah. But other than that, not for me. Some good visuals too much. CGI. Too much CGI. Yeah, movies are like far too much on CGI these days. And not, not not even too much CGI because I know people will be saying, oh, I think it's got CGI. I'm like, no, no, I know. But it's too obvious that it's CGI because it's not.
It doesn't look real. Like you can't, things can't do that. Like that kind of thing. Yeah, that annoys me. All right, well, try it at least. What's that? I picked the correct movie at least. You did. Well done. I can now talk about Avatar 3 and I knew that would have made half as much as Avatar one. Did you watch it? I. Watched Avatar 3, Avatar 3 was terrible. Really.
Like really bad. Like this movie does not need to exist at all. So let me if I recall correctly, you saw Avatar, you saw Avatar 2 and you said Avatar 2 was Avatar one with some. Avatar, Avatar, Yeah, yeah, Avatar 2 is Avatar one, and Avatar 3 just does not need to exist. OK. All right. The whole premise of Avatar 3 is they make the human boy be able to breathe the air and why they want to hunt him down even more because that'll make it easier for the humans to be able to go and do their stuff if they don't
have to worry about taking masks with them everywhere. So I don't know who the human boy is because I haven't seen Avatar 2. I don't think there was a human boy in. No. So you know how some of the humans stayed? Yeah, yeah, yeah. One of them ended up being a baby and he's now grown up. One of them ended up being a baby. Yep, and he grew up with the other Avatar children, so he runs around with them and. So he evolved the ability to breathe the air or they just did
something to him. They basically so in the movies, big spoilers, he has to keep track of his oxygen mask and. Right. If you. Oh, that's right. That's right. That's right. That's right. They can't breathe the air. Yeah, I remember this now. I remember. This, you've got to change the battery and so then they've got him down to the earth and the Earth Pandora gained the ability to breathe because. Oh yeah, like it swaps people's bodies and all that stuff too.
Yeah, it's the ability to breathe the air. And now the humans want him even more. And also he's also the son of the bad guy. Oh, the bad. Military guy. Yeah, OK, sure. Yeah, All right. I feel like we should watch these just because Luke, because we talk about them, but. Yeah, but no, it they could have just had that one scene in Avatar 2 and it could have skipped over the movie 3 completely. And with how it's doing and how he maybe should have done that
because he may not get to make the rest of them. I don't know Avatar 3 made half as much as Avatar one, but Avatar one made a lot. Made a lot, but because so. It might be enough for them to say, yeah, fuck it, we'll make another one. Yeah, but that was only made a lot because not because it was a good movie, it's because it was the first time we'd seen 3D. Yeah, had a lot of like spectacle attached to it. But now it doesn't even really have that. Yeah, it's. As beautiful as it was. I don't like them in three DI
know we've talked about this before. But at least at least they're not doing what happened after Avatar One. Remember when Avatar One everything came out in 3D? Yeah. Now it's just Avatar's the only thing you need glasses for. I remember I went and saw one of the underworlds underworld fucking seven or something, and it was like, here's your 3D glasses and I was like what? Why? And then there was like no reason for that to movie do it in 3D. Like it wasn't in 3D.
They just no made that a werewolf's nose poke out of the screen at one point. Like, yeah, I was like, no, I. Remember when they were going to go through and do all of the Star Wars movies in 3D? Yeah, yeah. Start with one and go through and make them all. And then they found out that, you know, everyone's sick of 3D. Yeah, everyone's sick of Star Wars. We've got some Star Wars news if you would like to talk about that depressing subject. Could we talk about the Super Bowl trailer? We can talk about the Super Bowl
trailer. Yes, the Super Bowl trailer was fucking weird. It felt like it was an ad for bourbon. Yeah, I don't know what, I don't know what Star Wars is anymore. I don't, I don't understand the marketing for this movie. Even so, the the full trailer for The Mandalorian and Gregor is out now and I watched it and I was like what is this? I haven't seen the full trailer yet. I've just seen that one. And it's just that voiceover, that really deep voiceover that's talking about like, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
It's like a like a yeah. Time to crack a cold one. Yeah, yeah. So I might go watch the full trailer after this if that's out the. I put it in there. At all. No, I didn't mind. I watch. It just looks like I don't know man. I don't understand. It doesn't look at all like, Even so, I stopped watching The Mandalorian. And then I look at this, I watch the trailer for this and I'm like, man, it's not. It's I stopped watching before
it got like this. It looks, it looks like The Clone Wars. That's what makes me think of yeah. And I just don't like them. I'm sorry, everybody. I know people do. Again, I'm wrong. What? The first season was great. Yeah, but this isn't like that, clearly. No, I think the first season was great. The second season was like, OK. It got too broad him into Boba Fett. Right. And let's just start.
A talk about Boba Fett. And then they were just like, oh, Luke's just in the show now. And I was like, what the fuck is happening? Like, yeah, no, they've got they got weird. I'm interested to watch the the Ryan Gosling 1 yes, not project Hail Mary. I am excited to watch that, but I'm talking about. Rogue Squadron No. No, not Rogue Squadron. Starfighter. Starfighter Rogue Squadron, the writer was asked, do you know what's happening with that? And he said no, I got no idea. So.
I've written it, I submitted it to them. Yep, Patty Jenkins was supposed to be doing that. If you recall, there was a a big thing where they had all the planes in that announcement thing. Kathleen Kennedy was there. It was like Rogue Squadron and then. Everyone's excited. Swept under the rug. So I know it's not going to be the Rogue I, I would kill for a Rogue Squadron show, but I know it's not going to be the Rogue Squadron. I know no. No, I know it's going to be
something like The Mandalorian Grogu, yes, with lots of like looking at the camera and going. Even the title of the movie is ridiculous. The Mandalorian and Grogu. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's we at. I mean, I don't understand. What is this? What is this? It's such a long title. And yes, we know baby Yoda's going to be there. You don't need to. I'm sick of him. He should have left with Luke and left the show. That's what should have happened.
That's and. Then there's had had him go back to being a bounty hunter. He was interesting because he was like a little mystery. And when he wasn't a mystery anymore, it was like, OK, got it. Like, get out of here, kid. I don't know. He got sad because he missed his friend and chose to go back I think. I'm just old. This is what people like, I guess. Is it? Well, I guess we'll find out. I actually don't know. Do people like this?
I don't know. I don't think anything in Star Wars has been doing great lately. I think the only thing that's had like a good review is and or everything else has been sort of. I really liked the acolyte, like I really liked the acolyte, but I don't know what I'm one of like. 10 people. No, I know I'm one of 10 people who liked that so. But again, I know it's hard to like. People were ready to jump down that throat before it had even started. Remember when you saw people
complaining about, like, space lesbian lesbian stuff? Like, no, that's a coven of witches. That's, yeah, what a coven of witches is. And then there's like 1 scene where they do a little, yes, it's stupid. They do a little chant, but it's like it's like 2 seconds and and it's and it's over with. And then there's the whole rest of the episode and everybody was like, oh, ruined like all right. But I don't know the tone of this is what worries me. Like also, I guess I haven't seen two seasons of the Mandalorian are at this Four
Seasons of it. Is that right? Is it more than that? Well, I think there's there's 3-4 if you include Boba Fett. Oh, is that OK? I thought there's more than that. I think. All right, so there's one one season I haven't seen. I guess because I'm going to see this, I'll need to catch up because I'm going to know what the fuck's going on. Yeah, I think there's just the one season you're missing. I tried to watch Ahsoka. Ahsoka is for people who watch grew up watching The Clone Wars.
I know it's got Ray Stevenson in it though. The rest in peace and I loved him by even that couldn't couldn't get me to watch it. Even had Hayden Christensen come back, they were talking. Oh, that's true. Article lately that they were even looking at having. Well no, I'm talking about Obi Wan, aren't I? I don't know. No, he came back in that soaker as well. Yeah, he did, yeah. No, I remember, I think reading something that they're also looking trying to get Padme back into one of them.
Oh yeah, All right, I support that decision. Have you seen the actual animated version of that meme? It exists. I've got to I've got to share this. You know the hang on. How can I share this with you? A listener or somebody sent it to us on Instagram to multiple new orgasm. Follow us on Instagram. By the way, if you want might encourage me to post. Oh, my phone's my camera. I can't show you. Hold on, let me see. I think I have insta on here. So yeah, I just watched the Star
Wars The Medal of Own trailer and one thing just hit me. This is the first movie that's come out since The Rise of Skywalker. It's been like 7 years since it's been a Star Wars movie. It's been that long. Fuck. All right, Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good point. Good point. I think like they. Really did stop and reset, didn't they? Yeah, you see, I think the tone of it is just very different. I'm not. Yes. Yeah, it's not what I it seems
like a lot of personally want, but a lot. Of 1 liners. It's all one liners in the trailer. It's just very like, that's me. I'm very like looking at the camera going ha, ha, look at this like, yeah, I don't know. I'm going to go see it, but. I'm probably not. Only once. I'm going to say I'll watch it later and then I'll just literally forget that it exists. Yeah. So like it, we're both done with handle, which is going to be good. Which I actually want to watch.
Yeah. The other bit of Star Wars news is that apparently Jon Favreau might be moving on from Star Wars, which is a shame because I feel like when he was, it was just him for season 1 of Mandalorian, or mostly him. It was pretty good. Yeah. And then it was only when Mr. Filoni got involved, when he direction I didn't like. Yes, because Fabreau was someone who loves Star Wars. Yeah, well so does Filoni, but he loves it different *. Wars. Different Star Wars, Yes. Yeah, I think Pavro likes our
Star Wars. Maybe, I don't know, it's he's too in it now like. Yeah, but no, it's it's going to be a shame if it's just Filoni left. Yeah, Filoni and the other guy is going to be head too, but they're both Clone Wars people, so. Yeah. Yeah, and Filoni apparently. Well, I don't know if this is true or not because it's the Internet, but apparently he doesn't like Andor so. Yes, that's what yay rumor we've heard. Yeah, the one thing that seems everyone likes one of the
highest rated skins. And yeah, he didn't like it. Oh, we've got some follow up about the Bone Temple. I haven't seen it yet, but. And it's some it's a bit of a shame in this news. Yeah, it's not done as well as they would hope, and maybe they won't make the third one. I'm actually thinking it might have come down to marketing and the fact it came out quickly and a lot of people thinking, oh, maybe this is just like the director's cart or just like a little re release because it came out, yeah, so soon. So they weren't thinking it was a new movie because it rated
higher than. Yeah, the third one it doesn't. It looks like the same movie if you don't know. And also, I think they didn't, yeah, they just didn't explain it. No. So I think if you'd gone and seen the first one and you enjoyed it, and when you waited until the end and went, there's another one coming, Yeah, you knew that was happening. But if you were just someone who went and saw it, got up and left, you would think that maybe this is just, yeah, just the same. I saw that pre release.
Yeah exactly. Yeah, yeah, it's weird choice to because it was just the Bone Temple. Come see the Bone Temple. It's like, tell people what that is. Because it was actually starting to get quite interesting because it was actually starting to look at sort of because as we know, like they're not actual zombies. They're actually still human just as they're affected. But I'm starting to see started the human side of some of them, like the alpha, he starts to have a relationship with the doctor. That's not just.
Yeah, right. Not just antagonistic. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going to watch this. No, you should. But yeah, it's a shame we're not going to get the third one because I'll, I think it's sort of heading towards a conclusion for the input. Yeah, hopefully we do. I just doesn't look good at this point. Yeah, yeah. It's just a shame. I wish more people had gone on the scene. Yeah, Yeah. Well. Versus 53,000,000, yeah, that's
not good. You watch the Olympics. No, I have not. So I'm not an Olympics fan and I'm happy we're not living in the 90s where when the Olympics were on, that's all you could watch. Sydney 2000 or just in life? Oh yeah, you're right. Every time, yeah. Every Olympics, it was just. Yeah, because we only have 4 channels. Yeah, every channel was just updating you on the Olympics and I did not care for it. Yeah. Yeah, but I have cable in Australia until no late 90s.
Late 90s didn't even then it wasn't good. No, it's Foxtel. Yeah, Yeah. So there's some some Olympic related news we've been watching odds and ends. You know Jenna likes the curling O'Leary is interested in bits and pieces of it, unless you've gotten burned down it because there is a lot of it. There's a couple of stories. There's an Olympic skier having a bad week. Did you see this one? No. He he won the the bronze medal and they came up to talk to him afterwards thinking he'd be
happy. But he broke down crying and said that this has been the worst period of his life because he cheated on his girlfriend and she found out and dumped him and he loves her and had this just had this big fucking breakdown on television. Yeah. So yeah, he said, there's someone I want to share this with who might not be watching today. Six months ago, I met the love of my life, the most beautiful and kindest person in the world. Three months ago, I made the biggest mistake of my life and it was unfaithful.
This has been the worst week of my life. But look, I'm going to put something out there. If you love someone so much, don't cheat on them. Yeah. It's pretty easy not to do. I've found it quite easy not to. Yeah. I don't quite. I don't know. Yeah. But also six months. Come on. Still, I mean don't cheat on someone just because it's only been six months but. But yes, I see what you mean. Yeah, like I don't mean the
cheating on part, but I mean that the six months you three months ago you broke up. Yeah, you were together for three months. Yeah, good point. The love of my life. Yeah, you saw just in the honeymoon period of the relationship and. Yeah, that's true. And as the comments say on here too, this whole thing with him melting down on television's a bit of a red flag so. Yes. She, she, she's probably better off without without that drama. So that was one article and I believe you've popped a little
cheeky. I have, yeah. Because obviously don't talk about this. We got this sent in by our listener Darcy on the discord. The Discord. What's the discord? We have a discord, I don't know what it's called. It's called multiple note guys, isn't it? It is yeah. Discord getting to a discord is I don't think you can just link to one but if you join the Patreon you get access to it. Yes, I think. I think I don't know how it works.
When you, I think when you sign up for the, when you sign up for the Patreon, I think, I think there's a button, yeah, that says click here to go to there. We're still learning and. I you should be able to get on there for free, yeah. It's not supposed to be a paid thing. If it is, tell me and I'll fix it. I'm just, I'm just bad at it. I'm not. It's not. It's supposed to be free. Yeah, yeah, Discord we're not the greatest at. I've had it installed for many years and I still no idea how to
use it. But now a lot of others. We're getting there. Podcasts have them, so why not ask? I joined the official 9 Inch Nails discord the other day. I didn't know they even had one and I'm looking here. There's tons of stuff in here, so yeah Anyway, I. Digress this in and and I think every Olympics yes that because what happens is you get all these super athletic attractive people all living together in one village they do their. Event. And they're still there, and they party and you know, they've
already run out of the 10,000 condoms that they were given. Wow, I remember, was it last year? No, last year. That's not every year. Whatever the last Olympics was where they made them. They gave them really uncomfortable beds to try and stop them. No, they tried to took the mattresses. Away or something. They stopped. They were made out of. Cardboard and they were trying to the people thought, oh, they're doing this to stop them from having sex, but then there
was actually one of the athletes was jumping up and down and going no, this is actually great string on it. Fantastic, right? I promise. You This has not stopped us. They will find. A way they're strong. People, they can. Just use a wall. Yeah, the floor. Can't take the floors away. Yeah. Yeah. This is very funny. Yeah, this does happen every time. Yeah, But it is very funny. And I saw floating around,
there's a clip of an American Olympian in an interview, and she was just talking about how she hasn't even competed yet, but she's just been in the village having the best time of her life and blah, blah, blah. And everyone was like, yeah, everyone knows. What happens in the village? Yeah. So. Good to hear that hasn't. Changed, yeah, but. You've got to admit like they're all attractive people, everyone. All the Olympians are. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, not all of them. Not all of them, but most of
them. They're all but one thing. They are all fit. Yeah. And they've been training for this for for years, training to to burn through all. These condoms for years, yeah, Yeah. Did you see that thing about the Canadians cheating, by the way? No, there was. Like a. So I've I don't have an article for this. I mean, I was told about this and I've seen some videos basically in the, you know, curling. Yes, once.
You let go of the. Stone thing. You're not allowed to touch it. You're not allowed to touch. It Yep. But the Swedish team said that they thought the Canadians were touching it after they let go and and it was a whole big thing and they. Formally said we accuse. Them of cheating and the Canadians were like fuck you and then there was there's a quote from one of the guys who goes I didn't fucking touch it and then the sweet said well because we thought you were cheating we put a camera down there and so there's video footage and you
can see this Canadian guy he pushes the let's go and then his little his long finger is like pushing it and so somebody. Made a a. Funny, it's like a Canadian stamp. Yeah, they do the Olympic stamps and it's this guy with his finger on the thing and it says I didn't fucking touch it. Well, so yeah, it's busted. It's weird to see trick. Cheating like that, normally it's just steroids, right? This is just good old. Fashioned cheating. But like if you look at hanging, we find. Because you look at the picture
and you go come on, mate. And it's just so like, and then and then they said too, apparently they said that's how we practice. And it's like, well, you're not allowed to do that, mate. Like. Canadian. Cheating. Curling. Let's see. Where's the? Picture come. On Where's the picture? See, I'm like this was. Real, right? Swedish refused to let go of Canada's. Little curling sheeting.
It's only cheating. If you get caught and the. Swedish outlining Canada slides on this one. Oh yeah, he also said that it was. Unsupporting of them to set up a camera and it's like you're a fucking cheating mate. Like what are you talking about? Are there enough? Cameras though, that would have been able to pick that up, I guess not at the side. And that that's why it was like, I think that's what the Swedish team was saying. It was like, you know, he's doing it in a way that they know where the cameras are.
There's cameras down the end. And this camera's filming this, that and the other. They know where they are. And he's pushing it like his little little finger from what I saw, if the granite is touched after it. Crosses the hog line. It results in that stone being removed from plague, evidently. Though they haven't been. Disqualified. Oh yeah, the world calling. Board released a. Statement on the allegations saying they do not use video replay to overturn game decisions while also it's too late next in touch on the.
Granite. After release is now allowed? What? Huh. So they've. Changed the rules to allow it. That's interesting. OK, I got. To look into that more. Like I said, I didn't I I just got told this the other night and I was like, oh, that's interesting. And I saw the funny picture. The funny picture is what I really cared about. Oh, did you find the Star Wars meme? No animated. That's it up.
On the Instagram, that's what happened when Lyra came in, yeah. It's the it's the AI needs more data centers and then Padme is like to cure cancer right and then she's like to cure cancer right and then she has huge tits, but someone AI actually made it it's a video of it. Oh, that's. All right. Going to find it. Here we go. Got it. Putting. It down the. Bottom of the spreadsheet. Oh, it's actually video, Yeah. And they speak.
Brilliant, actually. I'm actually. Starting to see a lot more of that, the cost of memory making change. So you know, my, my handheld Xbox, yeah, that's now gone up by $200 because of memory. Yeah, Yeah, it's a problem. Yeah, there's, he has so much AI stuff going on. Actually, half of it is just. Giving Padma big tits Yeah, yeah, I know. I told you I. Mentioned this the other week, I scrolled through my Instagram and it's just like what is this? Like why? Why does this exist?
People making fake ghost videos. And it's just like, what are we? Doing did you see a fuck, what was I going to say blah blah blah blah blah blah. That has gone from my brain. I probably wouldn't have seen it though. That's very annoying. I read the occasional. News article but apart from. That I'm not on Instagram, not on anything. The Tom Cruise versus Brad Pitt. Brad Pitt fight. Did you see this? OK, so there was a video posted that was like a big fight sequence from like a non existing movie.
Yeah. And it's Brad Pitt fighting Tom Cruise on a rooftop. And it's this very elaborate, very fancy fight. Everyone was like, oh, wow, this is amazing. We don't need people anymore. We computers can just do these things and we can be entertained. But then it was got this controversy where people were like, well, actually, I think it's actually been filmed and they've swapped the faces because it's like AI is actually not that good at this stuff. And so now it's it's turned into this whole big thing where it's
like now nobody knows whether this video is AI or fake AI. Like someone people are now faking AI videos which is scary because. People believe everything they do see already and now you can. Yeah, just do AI. To show and all fake. AI it's. Yeah, we started on. Yeah, I mean, it's not like the government would, you know, put up an AI video and say that it was real, right? the US government wouldn't do that, would they? No. Of course not. No, No.
They wouldn't try. They wouldn't. They wouldn't try that one. However, and then shouldn't see what happens to see if anybody buys it, which luckily they don't, so that's good. Well, it depends where you've posted if you post it on. Facebook, it's always true. Everything on Facebook's true Facebook's a fucking disaster at the moment. I just I log on every day and again I go what? Is this? Yeah, It's like I used to have my. Friends. They used to be where I looked
at what my friends were doing. Like my friends aren't on there. Either they're not on there or they're lost the same as me in all this garbage. Yeah. What is this? Like I. Just you see all this stuff from? People, I don't know who they are or it's just reposts from stuff. People, stop reposting crap. Yeah, it's weird. Yeah, And like AI images, people like, oh, this, this poor young girl got her leg replaced with a plank or whatever. And it's like, it's like, it's
not real real. Yeah. Anyway, I have to call. I do have to call my nephew out every. Now and again, every now and again, he'll share like an Instagram account or a Facebook account with me and I have to to it's to win a four wheel drive and all this stuff. But I go it's not real. Yeah. They're not just giving stuff away to a random person in the chat that shares this. They're doing it to build up the numbers on that account so they can then sell the account. Yes, I am.
Speaking of somebody who does give away cars, something else I've gotten into, when I was really sick and I was just lying in bed, I watched a fucking shit load of Vice Grip Garage on YouTube. Have you ever seen, do you know Vice Grip Garage? I think I've seen a video or 20. Really. Yep, man, Derek. Is awesome. I fucking I got I've got to give that Channel a shout out. He is so good. Basically, he listeners witnesses he the premise of the. YouTube channel largely he has. He has ATV show as well now
called Roadworthy restorations or something, something like that anyway. So he he people, I guess in the audience say I've got this rusted out fucking bomb sitting in my backyard, this car in my backyard and he goes out there and. He tries to drive it back. To Tennessee, basically to his car museum and like the some of them are like, like literally like grown over with fucking weeds. And there's like you, you, you see the car at the start and you go no way. And he, he fucking drives it out of there.
He drives it out of there. It's amazing. He's he's great. How is that legal? Don't worry about that. Don't worry about that. He does. There's a bunch of things he does that are questionable as far as that goes, but you'll notice when you, if you watch it, right, He says this too. He goes, we're just going to recycle that oil anyway. So yeah, there's a few things he does like that. And it's like, yeah, OK. You just have to. And yeah, he just, yes, he just drives them, Yeah.
No, that's not legal. No. It's probably he. Just started out doing something for fun and then growing into a career for him. Yeah, that's great. Bye bye. Not too many. OK, OK, not really that much. Oh, that's good then. I think Bigsie wants one too. She's scamming you. She's definitely scamming me. She's very smart. Yeah. So anyway, Vice Grip garage highly. Recommended. Love it.
Yeah. No, no, I'll have to turn a couple. Of videos. I'm just looking at it now and yes, yeah. And then these it's so. Impressive that he. Like manages to. Get these fucking things working. Because I would look at that car and I would go no way. That's no way. It's scrap. It's scrap. Yep, that's all it's good for. But he gets and he. Like, yeah, he. Like he'll pop the hood.
And you'll go, OK, Yeah, no, we're OK. It's like, really? Yeah, yeah. He's like, yeah, we have. Yeah, we have. Completeness, he says. Everything's there, we'll just see how we go. Yep. And then drive it for hundreds of miles. And they don't all make. It but he has a go. Yeah, and, and like I said, some of them, he's driven them all the way home. And I was just like, fucking hell, man. Like it's very impressive and.
With the ones that don't make it, does he? Just, Oh well, walk away from it. No, no, he'll he'll, he'll, he'll. Get a U-Haul trailer Yeah. To to get him home. Yeah, OK. All the cars end up back there. It's just yeah. And then he. Can probably work on them and resell them. Yeah. Or he does or he gives them away. That's. That's the reason I thought of this, because you said the car
giveaway, he does give away cars on there. OK, so so yeah, actually does it not just one of these scam. Facebook groups that are. I think he actually does it. I guess I don't have. One, he hasn't given me one so I can't some of the two point. 5 million subscribers. I'm going to guess that he does. Yeah, I'm going to guess he's honest and he also I like the thing I like. About him, yes, he has 2.5 million followers. He's clearly doing all right. Yeah, on YouTube. But he does this the way that he always does it, so he's always
done. He goes out there, he'll buy the fucking minimum stuff he needs. He's like, OK, if we can reuse this stuff, I'll reuse it and I'll return that stuff to O'reilly's auto parts or whatever. It's all like, like the absolute minimum money he can spend. Yeah, he's not trying to. Scare people over and go and Oh yeah, I just rebuilt, put a new engine in. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. No, no, you can watch. Him do it like. And he he he will sticky tape fucking shit back together to
make it go. And then of course he goes gets a roadworthy. And gets rego and insurance for it and all of that. Of course he does. Of course he does. Of course, Yeah, yeah, last, I think last AI related thing. This made me laugh. Do you see this realtor real estate listings? I saw this and I. Thought they weren't allowed to? Well, they shouldn't be. Especially if they're not even looking at the fucking photos. Look at because look at that. Look at that photo. Right.
So Realtors apparently are putting in AI generated images of houses. So they like, I guess having it, I assume taking a photo and saying make this look nice. Yeah, make it look nice. Make it look bigger. But this one he's. Got a fucking? Disembodied face like it's like a disembodied face like a demon, is how it's described in the article. Coming out of the fucking mirror. The other one on top of the toilet, it looks like it's. Trying to make something where you maybe keep spare toilet
paper or something. It's like a deformed person, yeah. Like what is? This it's like. This. You look at these before you put them up, like using AI. To. Assist is great. But a human needs to have the final say because AI will do this shit. Yeah, yeah, this looks. Ridiculous. Like, yeah, that is she's coming out. Of the mirror, yeah, yeah, it's. Really weird and they thought that was fine to just.
Put up there. Well, that's what I'm saying. I think they are. They obviously can't they. Can't have looked at this, no. Because you would never go. Hey, that's fine. Yeah. Yeah, that was good to me. Yeah, that's a professional. Photograph. Of a thing that really exists. Yeah. AKA our house. Yeah. You know, I thought it might be different. In in the US, but now in America you can't show false photos of apply Australia.
Yeah, you have to. It has to be real photos. So yeah, I mean that should be the case. Here I don't know if it's probably not. Probably not. You can do all sorts of weird shit. Here. Like I've told, complain about. This before 100. Percent juice and other stuff on the on the front, 100% a hundred. Percent apple juice and then really small underneath. And other ingredients. And it's like what? And you look on the back and
it's just like water. High fructose corn syrup. Fucking girls. In Australia if it's 100% juice it's 100. Percent juice because if you put it say it's 100% juice. On the front, that's what's got to be in the fucking bottle, Yes, Yeah, no added preservatives except for these ones. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, dodgy. Yeah, you got you. Literally have to read the. The back here. Yeah, so watch out for your. Both have this sort of disembodied weird.
Woman, I wonder if it's like. I guess I don't. Know what tool they're using. To do it, I wonder if there was a person in one of the photos and it's done something weird or who knows? Yeah, it depends on how they did this. But that's wrong look. Before we leave, there's. Some Xbox news there is. Yes, you haven't seen. You didn't know who's leaving? Phil, Spencer and Sarah. Bond are leaving. And the the sentiment I've seen floating around is that like the Xbox really is dead. After 40 years.
At Microsoft, Phil Spencer is leaving. He's retiring, I think. OK, so he's not. He's going somewhere else, but that's different because, yeah, working there somewhere. For 40 years, Yeah, like he's totally. Not young, no. No. So let him retire, I mean. Maybe. Maybe retirement? Means going somewhere else, but I don't know. But yeah, so big shake up I guess, yeah. Because she's what's her role, she's.
Like she's a she's a head. Yep. So there's gonna be a Yeah, a lot. More layoffs coming, yeah, and. Yeah, Sarah Bond, president and CEO of Xbox. So she's leaving. Phil Spencer's leaving. And yeah, like I said, I saw a bunch of bunch of posts saying, yeah, and it looks like Xbox is really not doing going to be doing so great now. But maybe that's just reading into this. Yeah, I, I think it is. I think. It could even be if they're both leaving at the same time, they
could be maybe going off to do their start their own thing. Maybe. Oh yeah, the Y box. But. Look, I don't. Think it's dead. I think they've just jumped ahead to going for cloud. Yeah, that's all it. Is and also if. You look at the price of memory at the moment, the way that's going, Cloud's probably going to be the way to go because yeah, sure, forward a new console. I've still been playing Dune on GeForce Now. It's been great. So.
I'm all about cloud these days because I. Think I even saw like the switch is about to jump. Up in price as well. The Switch too. Yeah, the bloody tariffs here aren't helping with that. Stuff either so you've got your tariff and then the cost of memory so. For them to make money, Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's fair. But. Yeah. So hopefully. This doesn't mean what everyone says it means, because I know your gamer score is very precious to you.
It is. They still need to fix the gamer score. They need to make some changes, but that needs to stay. I don't know what will happen if there's no more gamer score. What changes would you have them make? They're just going to get rid of some of. The shovelware. Oh, sure. OK, Yeah. That's it. That's only real trade. Oh, also I'd like to see get rid of the some of the ridiculous achievements that take grinding to the end shot degree.
Yeah, but that's time for those. Ones. Right. But that just benefits you though, yes? I was gonna say because you're saying get rid of the shovelware, but you, you use the shovelware. I do, but but you have to because to be competitive you have to do it. Get this. I'm never going to be 6th in Australia. Now never, never, never. Cause. I'm about a million behind now. Oh my God. So let me just.
Double check my. Links. Where is it? My leaderboards? No, no, I'll. Never be 5th in Australia. I'm currently. 6th So I'm I've got 3.8 million gamer score. The person above me has 5.20. Wow, actually one. .4 more. Yep, Yeah. OK. So I'm going to guess that these. People are doing this for. A job or something? You can have mine if you want, I don't think it'll help. I don't think, I don't think I can just take.
Yours, but I just just no way someone with a full time job can be doing that, yeah. Yeah, well, maybe it's all for nothing. No, I need that dopamine hit. You have to move over to. Steam Achievements or. PlayStation achievements or I'd probably go Which? Doesn't have probably go to. Steam, because I've already got a huge steam. Library, yeah. Yeah. Hey, if you went PC. Hey, you could, yeah. You could play Dune Awakening. Yeah. It doesn't have any achievements
though. Oh no, it does. I'm getting achievements on Steam. It does, yeah. And I'll get achievements when. It comes to. Xbox later this year. You can come visit my base. Yep, I've got. Two bases now next to you. I've got 2 bases now. You needed. Someone did set up a base next to me. I got, I logged in the other day and I walked outside and I was like, oh, hello, well, are you friendly? Do you flight them in certain
areas? You can't. I don't usually no. I'd. I'd probably end up playing as a single player game. Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm doing. It's perfectly serviceable as one, to be honest. Yeah, Yeah, I've not. Needed to do any. Multiplayer. Like the multiplayer? Tasks are all optional. Yep, that's good. Yeah, I'm just read this in here. The robotaxi company has to pay people to close the car doors.
Yeah, Yeah. So actually, funnily enough. I put this in here. My brother is in Los Angeles right now for work, and he got caught a Waymo somewhere. And he was talking about how cool it was. And I was like, oh, I read this article the other day. Yeah. So apparently Waymo is doing very well. It's a robo taxi company. There's no people driving the car. And then actually my brother sent me a video. When you get in, it says hello and introduces itself to you.
And it says please don't touch the steering wheel. And then you sit in the back and the car drives you there. OK, so that's come a long way since the last. Time I heard about it, the first time I heard about it was you still had to like be in a driver's. Seat and still be paying. Attention and be prepared to put your foot on the brake and that's the Tesla Autopilot stuff works like that. Yep, the and I think the Tesla robo taxis now also don't have people in them. They did have people in them until recently, but the Tesla
ones still have support vehicles following them, whereas I think Waymo now my understanding, I could be wrong. My understanding is that Waymo is they just go off. Well actually this article indicates yes, the Waymo cars are just off doing their own thing. And they've had a problem in that people will get out of the car when it gets you, takes you to the place you're going. And if you don't close the door properly, you know, if you just kind of like flip the door or whatever, it doesn't close properly. You leave it open, you leave it
a jar or whatever. The car can't go anywhere. It's not not allowed to because the. Door's not shut. And then you leave and now that car is just stuck there, stuck there. And so they. Have been. Paying people on DoorDash to go and close the doors and I just thought it's so funny that the robo taxi has to hire a human to do something and then. And they get paid 5 bucks for doing it. Yeah, to go and just drive over and. Shut the door just closely.
Go over, close the door. Yep, and then the. Taxi's like thank you. And goes off on its way because for safety reasons, it's not allowed to drive off with the door open. Yeah, fair enough. But yeah, very funny. And then because. Yeah. And then because people are like, oh, why don't they? Just have the doors auto closed, but then it's like, well, why is the door not closed? You don't want to be like, you know somebody's head to get stuck in it or something, you know, stuck in there or
something horrible could go wrong. They. Have to be careful. And I could see people accidentally. Sort of just getting out quickly and shutting the door because they're not people doing anything. Yeah, people. Doing it on purpose too, just to be a Dick. Like I don't, I don't go straight to people being a Dick. Unfortunately, no. No, I do think it it could easily. Happen. That's why I said if you just,
you know, you flick the door, you've got your luggage or whatever, it doesn't close properly. Yeah, You know, under normal circumstances the taxi would just drive off anyway. Yeah. And not don't notice. Yeah, but yeah, OK. And then it's got a. Picture of the division to show off someone's closing a door. Yeah, I mean, I guess I have to find a. A picture that's a good game. Of Division I liked. It I just. Wish it wasn't as multiplayer as it was.
Yeah, because it got to you play, you get to the end and then it's now just go and click Yeah, more loops and do stuff. Yeah, I guess I'll find out. One day if Dune requires multiplayer at the end. I'm not there yet though, so it's being at the. End. I think we're at the. End. We're at the end of that. There is more to. Come this. Doesn't have to be the end. No, if you want to.
