  Hello everyone, welcome back to another episode of Distractible. If this is your first time joining us, then truly welcome. If you've come back, I only ask, why? Join is always by my co-host, Mark and Bob. Hey guys.

• 2:08Speaker 04

  Hello, I'm Mark. Just want to be clear about that. I know we look the same.

• 2:13Speaker 05

  Same height and all.

• 2:15Speaker 04

  I'm Mark, that's Bob.

• 2:17Speaker 06

  No, I'm Mark, that's Bob.

• 2:20Speaker 04

  That's gonna confuse everybody. We sound the same.

• 2:23Speaker 05

  We sound so much alike.

• 2:24Speaker 04

  Yeah, yeah, I know, right?

• 2:26Speaker 03

  I don't know which is which. I'm Wade. Wade, bald. Easy to remember. If you're just listening, you can probably hear the bald.

• 2:34Speaker 06

  You can, actually.

• 2:36Speaker 04

  The subtle reverberation back in the room, off your head, back and off.

• 2:40Speaker 06

  It has to do with the way your head resonates when you speak. You're like a, you're like a nicely leather-finished resonance box with the hair on our heads just tamps down our, our, you know, overtones and just dulls our voices, really.

• 2:55Speaker 03

  Really ruining the rez.

• 2:56Speaker 04

  You know, Krillin from Dragon Ball said that it helped unfetter his chi.

• 3:02Speaker 03

  And then he grew hair later on.

• 3:04Speaker 04

  Yeah, well, he was just shaving himself bald. He wasn't actually bald.

• 3:07Speaker 06

  He was a wannabe.

• 3:09Speaker 03

  Not all of us can be purebred. We have not been in a call, we did the one man show where we kind of jumped right into it. We've not done like a normal episode where we've gotten to talk and just like catch up, small talk, like, I have no idea what you guys have been doing. I feel like Mark's probably been doing nothing for the last month. Bob, you and I have been probably pretty busy.

• 3:27Speaker 02

  Final stretch. Final stretch.

• 3:30Speaker 03

  Stretching's good for you.

• 3:34Speaker 06

  Yeah, final stretch. This is, this is the one. This is the one. Final stretch.

• 3:37Speaker 03

  It's like final stretch was in alpha and then it was in beta. Now final stretch is approaching 1.0. It was just early access final stretch.

• 3:44Speaker 04

  Well, what's fun about today, when this episode comes out, I believe this is for Monday.

• 3:49Speaker 06

  Yeah, this is the Monday before.

• 3:51Speaker 04

  Today, actually, is the day the soundtrack releases.

• 3:56Speaker 06

  Oh.

• 3:56Speaker 04

  So right now, people can go listen to the soundtrack for Iron Lung if they want to get a little taste.

• 4:02Speaker 06

  On like streamers and stuff like, like, like on Spotify?

• 4:05Speaker 04

  Yeah. So just, just in case people want to listen after, after the podcast afterwards.

• 4:10Speaker 06

  Same time. Get as many devices as you can and have one more playing the podcast than you have playing the soundtrack, but.

• 4:16Speaker 03

  There's actually a rumor that if you play the soundtrack while you play this episode, they line up just like, uh, Dark Side of the Moon and Wizard of Oz.

• 4:23Speaker 06

  At 28 minutes in, the devil actually says in backwards language.

• 4:28Speaker 04

  Mark is dead.

• 4:32Speaker 06

  Cause you're our John Lennon, obviously. Wade's McCartney and I'm Ringo. Everybody knows.

• 4:37Speaker 03

  Oh, you used to be the drummer? All right. I'll take it.

• 4:39Speaker 06

  Yes. Ringo is the much more popular Beatle. I win.

• 4:42Speaker 03

  Well, I know he's not, but like he should be. He was fairly talented. Underrated.

• 4:45Speaker 04

  Does that make Amy Yoko Ono? Cause I feel like you should feel bad about that.

• 4:50Speaker 06

  I don't follow the whole interpersonal drama so much. Yoko was actually very talented. The stuff that she did around the time when people really noticed her, when she was getting more famous. It's not my favorite, but she also made like other really like good music and like.

• 5:06Speaker 04

  Oh, really? I don't know a thing about it.

• 5:08Speaker 06

  It's not the, the, the clips that people pick out of her doing like weirder stuff. That's all more out there stuff, but she made some really, she's actually really talented. Underrated. She gets a bad rap.

• 5:20Speaker 03

  Who's George?

• 5:21Speaker 06

  Uh, I think that's the name of the guitar that plays itself in the background.

• 5:25Speaker 03

  Wade, you're George. But I'm Paul. No.

• 5:30Speaker 06

  But your actual name is George. George Paul McCartney Harrison Ford.

• 5:35Speaker 03

  George Paul McCartney Harrison Ford. How dare you put my full legal name out there?

• 5:40Speaker 04

  You know what people are gonna do with that information?

• 5:42Speaker 06

  Your social security card is a nightmare. Tell you what.

• 5:46Speaker 04

  Actually, we had that situation with Lixin, because Portuguese infamously have very long names. I don't know if infamously, but they have multiple middle names, basically.

• 5:55Speaker 06

  Regular famously?

• 5:56Speaker 04

  So his name was so long, when we get to the security at Warner Brothers, they were like, "I can't find you. You're not even... Well, he's gotta be on the list. Let me call someone." I circled around, pulled off to the side, slowly crept back up, being like, "We haven't pleased." He's like, "Oh, he should be on there." I guess he was like, "Yeah, yeah, no. Where are you going? Okay, yeah, we have someone by the name of Luis Costa, but not a Costa."

• 6:20Speaker 06

  That's, that's it.

• 6:21Speaker 04

  Not Luis Costa. Not to say his full name out there and release that information to the public.

• 6:26Speaker 03

  Luis Costa, Paul McCartney, John Harrison.

• 6:29Speaker 04

  Yeah, it was like, he read out the full name, like, "Luis, middle name, middle name, Costa, and you're Luis, middle name, middle name, Costa." And...

• 6:38Speaker 03

  Didn't Picasso have like a ridiculously long name, too?

• 6:41Speaker 06

  Pablo, ah, my ear, Picasso?

• 6:44Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 6:45Speaker 06

  But in Spanish?

• 6:46Speaker 04

  Maybe it's like, you know, Spain, Portugal, they're right next to each other, so they must maybe have similar customs.

• 6:51Speaker 03

  Names? Pablo Diego Jose Francisco de Paula Juan Nepo Muqueno Maria de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz Picasso.

• 7:04Speaker 04

  Geez, leave some for the rest of us. What the fuck?

• 7:06Speaker 06

  Damn, that could be like eight people.

• 7:09Speaker 04

  Yeah, when do we start rationing names? Was that in the 90s?

• 7:11Speaker 06

  [laughing]

• 7:12Speaker 04

  Overpopulated.

• 7:13Speaker 03

  Please, sir, can I have some middle initials?

• 7:16Speaker 06

  I just wanna name my daughter Dorothy. We don't even wanna have a last name. I can give you Door.

• 7:20Speaker 04

  [laughing]

• 7:22Speaker 06

  Dad, just because there's a story doesn't mean I like my name. Why did you call me Door?

• 7:26Speaker 04

  Gonna give you Door and a hyphen.

• 7:28Speaker 06

  Let's talk to your brother, Jam. You guys are a pair. I know, Mandy and I are not gonna name our daughter Dorothy. Don't worry, Chad. Also, we don't have a daughter. That's a hypothetical daughter.

• 7:37Speaker 03

  Do you have a secret daughter that we've never known about?

• 7:39Speaker 06

  No.

• 7:41Speaker 04

  Man, that would really prove some favoritism going on. If you keep going on about your son and all these stories about your son, it's like, "Oh, yeah, also, there's a daughter somewhere in there."

• 7:50Speaker 03

  James is so great. James, James, James. Guys, can we count on the number of times we've heard James? What about Door?

• 7:55Speaker 06

  Oh, no.

• 7:56Speaker 04

  Well, maybe we'll go back and be like, oh, my God, he's been saying Door all along, and we thought he was really into hardware. Oh, my God.

• 8:03Speaker 06

  Door wouldn't shut up last night. Like, hey, this dude's Doors talk a lot. What the hell?

• 8:07Speaker 03

  At 26 minutes, when we play James backwards, it's actually Door's the favorite.

• 8:12Speaker 06

  Well, that's gonna start some funny rumors. What were we talking about? Oh, long names. That's right.

• 8:17Speaker 03

  I think this is the small talk portion. Mark was talking about his final stretch, and we've gotten the Dorothy somehow from there.

• 8:21Speaker 04

  I mean, I kind of jumped in. I don't know if we got through the intro.

• 8:25Speaker 03

  I actually don't remember the last time we'd gotten together before a one man show. It was, was it even this year?

• 8:30Speaker 06

  Yeah, we got, we got together like the fifth or something. I don't know, like a couple of weeks ago.

• 8:36Speaker 04

  But hey, it's all done now officially. I mean, in a week, the movie's gonna be out. People will realize that I'm a giant fraud, and they'll, they'll laugh when.

• 8:44Speaker 03

  Oh, fraud. I think it's a frog. I was like, what a weird thing to think.

• 8:50Speaker 04

  Just don't spoil the movie, man. Come on, man. Not again.

• 8:54Speaker 03

  Do you feel like, Bob and I were talking about this a little while you were gone. Do you feel like the pressure's off? Or do you think it'll wait till the movie's actually out for people to see before the pressure will feel like it's off?

• 9:02Speaker 04

  Oh, pressure's done. Pressure's way off now.

• 9:05Speaker 03

  All right, Bob wins.

• 9:06Speaker 06

  I'm better friends with Mark. I know how he feels.

• 9:08Speaker 04

  Yeah, well, all my pressure was on until I liked it, right? Because that's always, always is for me in projects. It's like I, I get really stressed when, if it's not where I think it should be. And that's what gets me iffy about it. But it was, it's already been where I wanted to be. This was just polish and finding all the missing pieces that fall through the cracks, of which there are a lot. There's a lot, there's a lot of those things. I could talk about them if you want to know more.

• 9:35Speaker 03

  Floor is open. We've not been together in a while, so whatever, man.

• 9:38Speaker 06

  I, I do have small talk, but it's not that interesting.

• 9:41Speaker 04

  Why don't you go first?

• 9:43Speaker 06

  Well, as of the, the airing of this episode, I fucking better have walked a full marathon so far this year. As of, as of right now, I am averaging more than one mile per day in 2026. I have had one day where I was really. Busy and I ended up just not doing one, but I've had multiple days where I've just walked a couple. So I'm, I'm ahead of the game, but yeah, I'm actually both Mandy and I, Mandy's way more ahead than I am. Mandy has like seven or eight extra miles at this point. Like she's been doing a couple of miles a lot of the days. I'm sticking to the 365 miles in 2026. It feels good. I feel like I'm getting to the point.

• 10:24Speaker 06

  I'm almost on the other side of the, uh, it sucks. Everything hurts. I hate this and getting to the like, I'm starting to feel better every time I go walk now. It's like, ah, nice.

• 10:34Speaker 04

  Oh yeah, that's awesome. That's great, man.

• 10:36Speaker 06

  That's kind of my only big update. Oh, James is, well, it's not fair to say this. James is almost potty trained. James is wearing big boy underpants. So that's pretty big.

• 10:45Speaker 04

  That's huge.

• 10:47Speaker 06

  And he went a whole day yesterday with no accidents or anything. He's in the potty like a real dude. He pisses everywhere.

• 10:55Speaker 04

  About door?

• 10:56Speaker 06

  Door sucks. I don't want to talk about that.

• 11:00Speaker 04

  Don't you ever mention door again. Every time in the background that like your door is opened, you know, where it's mysteriously opened. We all thought it was just the wind.

• 11:10Speaker 04

  Little did we know.

• 11:11Speaker 06

  Our secret is out.

• 11:13Speaker 03

  I guess before Mark goes, do I have anything interesting?

• 11:16Speaker 06

  No, Mark, talk about the movie.

• 11:18Speaker 03

  Oh, okay.

• 11:19Speaker 04

  No, wait, I'll, I'll, you may proceed.

• 11:22Speaker 03

  Molly just had her birthday. Uh, we ran around. I've been reading, so I took, I took four days off. I've not taken like actual time off where I haven't like at least recorded YouTube videos. I took an actual four days off. Uh, and I read three books. It was like 1,470 pages of books. Uh, I read two John Grisham novels and I read Project Hail Mary, which is now becoming a.

• 11:42Speaker 06

  Project Hail Mary.

• 11:44Speaker 04

  I've heard of that one. Yeah.

• 11:45Speaker 06

  Andy Weir, the writer of The Martian.

• 11:47Speaker 03

  I've not read that one. That one's on my list to read soon. Reading the book, I a hundred percent agree with the casting of Ryan Gosling as like the lead actor. Like I felt him in that role as I was reading the books. I think that was a perfect casting for the movie. So I'm hoping the movie's really good.

• 11:59Speaker 06

  I hope the movie's good.

• 12:00Speaker 03

  Yeah, but really enjoyed those books. I just started Runaway Jury. I finished The Firm and Pelican Brief.

• 12:05Speaker 06

  Oh, sure. Classics.

• 12:07Speaker 03

  I just figured I'd go back and read from the start. I didn't read A Time to Kill because I've read that one a bunch, so kind of that one's still in my memory, but.

• 12:12Speaker 06

  You should read Airframe.

• 12:14Speaker 03

  I don't have that one. I've got, I want to get The Exchange, which is like a Mitch McDeary sequel to The Firm. And then I, I just got two more. I can't remember the names of. They were two more, they were more recent. The ones I read before came out like the early 90s. So like, it was like, this guy's advanced. He has a car phone.

• 12:31Speaker 06

  And then he received a very threatening page.

• 12:36Speaker 03

  Oh, the mail. It's like the way they were tracking things. It's like, how could they ever get a hold of him without a tracker? It's not like he has any kind of technology on him. And it's like, man, this is going to change in 20 years. Also, some of these books go into like traveling through air and stuff, and it's pre 9/11. So it's interesting hearing like the airport experience and like pre 9/11 written books because it's just a very different feeling and world. Um, but they were really good. I read a lot, enjoyed that, enjoyed my time off, caught up on, I forget what shows. I've been watching Fallout, finished Stranger Things. I've not watched the Critical Role new one, Mighty Nine. I've not watched that yet. It's on my list. Watched all of Welcome to Dairy. I'm just enjoyed some time off and we went to Soto last night, which is my favorite, one of my favorite, if not my favorite restaurant. Have you been there? I didn't think you'd been there yet.

• 13:18Speaker 04

  Yeah, yeah, we went, uh, like, uh, when Amy and I got married, we went there. Oh no, was it before we did that? I don't think we went during our wedding trip. Maybe we did. It was very good. It really was. And reasonably priced.

• 13:29Speaker 03

  It is. Uh, I got some extra capolacci and I had that for lunch today. Actually, it was really good. So, no, other than being cold, that being the one downside, it's been a pretty great start to the year. So.

• 13:39Speaker 04

  Now my turn. Everybody shut up. It's time for me to talk about the one thing that I'll never be, I'll never be able to talk about it after this.

• 13:48Speaker 03

  I can't wait for that.

• 13:49Speaker 06

  When's the behind the scenes doc coming out? Cause I'm, I'm here for that too.

• 13:53Speaker 04

  Uh, well, man, we should have been filming so much more of it, uh, after, during the editing phase. We really should have, but we didn't. Um, however, uh, it's finally coming out on Friday. Not a joke.

• 14:04Speaker 03

  They're gonna do reshoots to get behind the scenes footage.

• 14:07Speaker 04

  We're gonna reenact.

• 14:10Speaker 04

  Could do that. It could be fun. Could be fun.

• 14:12Speaker 06

  You could cast someone taller to play you in the, in the reenactments.

• 14:16Speaker 03

  Or shorter, so you could feel better.

• 14:17Speaker 04

  There's a lot of steps to movies that, you know, people aren't aware of.

• 14:22Speaker 03

  Write film, sell. Isn't that it?

• 14:24Speaker 04

  Write film, sell. That's probably what most people think there is.

• 14:26Speaker 06

  Click, upload to YouTube. Boom. It's a movie.

• 14:29Speaker 04

  Dick upload to YouTube?

• 14:32Speaker 03

  Click, but dick upload.

• 14:35Speaker 06

  Dick upload's a whole different thing. No, click upload.

• 14:37Speaker 03

  In order to promote your movie, you gotta have a sex scandal.

• 14:40Speaker 06

  Saying it's not that easy.

• 14:41Speaker 04

  Yeah. Well, I mean, it's just a lot of logistics. And so it's the same with like, you know, doing the distribution. It's, it's totally possible to do it independently. It's just like, it's, it's just a lot of work. And the less people you have, the more work there is to do on an individual level. And no, it's not as easy as just hiring other people for it. Because imagine there's a good allegory with the editing portion of it. When we're, you know, a few years into a project and I was to bring on someone completely new, who had no idea what the hell was going on or what we've already done in the past or where we've ever been. And that's just like in small scale with the distribution. So when we get to this point where I have, Lycian and Sam were both in to help out with this last part, which was, you know, the absolute finalization of the sound mix.

• 15:23Speaker 04

  Because number one, we, we were doing an Atmos mix or we had theoretically, we're like doing an Atmos mix. But now we really had to get the Atmos mix dialed in because originally with the independent theaters, not a lot of them have like Atmos rooms, uh, things like that. And so now it's going to be going, you got to really refine it. So we were doing that while finalizing all that stuff. And then catching up on all the last little VFX bits that happen. And the problem is like, if you may, and, and this is probably not for every movie, but because this one is so interconnected, uh, with like the location of where you are and the numbers that show up on the console. And unless you just want all that to be nonsense, and I don't, um, anytime you make like a little tweak,

• 16:05Speaker 04

  like, ah, I'm going to steal this shot and move it there and there and bah. It's like Jenga tower, right? You pull out that piece and all of a sudden, boom, he's in a different spot and oh God. And so I have to, we have to go back and once we're finalized, we had to go in and manually like, make sure all the numbers were correct.

• 16:22Speaker 06

  Oh geez.

• 16:24Speaker 03

  You had like five lines on Premiere Pro, right?

• 16:29Speaker 04

  Lines.

• 16:30Speaker 06

  Would you have like 80 cuts, 85?

• 16:34Speaker 04

  It's, it's where I, again, sing the praises of DaVinci Resolve. And yes, it sounds like I'm a shill, but I think everybody should go to DaVinci because being able to just go from there to one page infusion and do the special effects from the rotoscoping to the tracking, to the putting it in there, to the compositing, to all of that in one page. It was immense, but we had to get like 80 of them done. And so it was just me, Lexi and Sam while I'm like looking up at the sound and being like, yeah, it's good, Brad. I got my AirPods with like noise cancellation in and he's asking me questions like, is that good? I'm like, oh, all right.

• 17:09Speaker 04

  And I mean, he's, he's been working on it for two years. So he's mostly just putting things where they need to be, you know, getting all the effects right. Making sure everything's balanced, making sure things are working in the surrounds. There's a lot of like little tiny things to do because there's, he has thousands of tracks. That guy has over a thousand tracks, all, almost all of them filled with sounds at some point. To be able to move all of them, that's why anytime you make a little tweak, everything comes tumbling down, you gotta put it all back together.

• 17:39Speaker 06

  Jesus.

• 17:40Speaker 04

  I, I do think that there are some more efficiencies to be had in the future. Again, DaVinci has a audio section as well where it's called Fairlight. But in the industry, Fairlight is not really smiled upon. It's more kind of made fun of, and I think that's unfair, even though I've never used it. And every time I've used it, it's crashed the entire software immediately.

• 18:00Speaker 06

  It sounds fine.

• 18:01Speaker 04

  It sounds, then again, he was going through crashes like nonstop. It was, I, I saw like every once in a while, the whole, his whole system would just go, all the lights would go down. And he's like, god, motherfucker.

• 18:12Speaker 06

  Jesus, on a, on a full professional setup in a, in a room. I would assume that's one of the things you eliminate when you get, you know, I can't even imagine how expensive of a room and equipment all set up for that exact purpose.

• 18:25Speaker 04

  It, it does sound like a nightmare, but these things, I, I guess everything just crashes at some point. Even my software crashes.

• 18:31Speaker 06

  If I'm editing on my MacBook and the little rainbow wheel pops up for like 20 seconds, I'm like, I'm never making anything again.

• 18:41Speaker 04

  No, man. I've gone through the funniest crashes. Sometimes it just turn your entire screen inverted colors for some reason, like something went horrible with the graphics cards and it

• 18:52Speaker 06

  Ha ha funny.

• 18:53Speaker 04

  And then I've had crashes. They're just like, hey, you're using 200% of your system's memory. And I'm like, how? How the fuck are you doing that?

• 19:01Speaker 03

  Overclocking.

• 19:02Speaker 04

  Yeah, memory is expensive these days. How are you doing?

• 19:05Speaker 03

  I do have a question before I forget. I assume films aren't still put on film reels and then sent on giant circles to thousands of theaters. So what does the process of actually getting the movie to the theaters look like?

• 19:18Speaker 04

  Uh, you send a file, right? It's called DCP and you package up your entire movie in that with all the audio formats. You have one default and then you have the other ones and then it sends it up to some big server and they pull the, the movie out and it's tied specifically to those theaters and those projectors so that, you know, they can all have a secure version of the movie to play and then ba ba ba.

• 19:41Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 19:41Speaker 04

  And they play it up. Yeah.

• 19:42Speaker 03

  Do you get to have at least one giant actual film reel?

• 19:45Speaker 04

  No, because you'd have to put it on film and it's a digitally shot movie. You could do that if you really wanted to, I suppose.

• 19:52Speaker 03

  It's your first movie. You should do it. Just hang it on your wall. That way you have something else to do now that you're bored.

• 19:56Speaker 04

  I don't want to have film. I am not a, I, I've never shot film, so I have no nostalgia for it. I cannot imagine operating under the limitations of film. It would be the most frustrating thing possible. Like every time you wanted to butter your bread, you had to churn it with a wooden thingamabob before you're able to enjoy your bread. Like

• 20:16Speaker 03

  When did they switch away from film?

• 20:18Speaker 04

  I mean, they're still doing it. Like you talk about the giant reels.

• 20:20Speaker 06

  Is IMAX digital or is IMAX still film?

• 20:23Speaker 04

  IMAX is film. Yeah. They can, they have not yet made a sensor as big as an IMAX film thing.

• 20:30Speaker 06

  Cell or whatever frame.

• 20:32Speaker 04

  But they're getting close. They are getting close. And honestly, like there is something to be said about that big image. And it's like, it's very cool and all the detail. You'd have to get something equivalent to like 24K resolution to get close to the amount of detail it can put. It's, it is impressive, but the, the cumbersome nature of it like is, it's like, you know, you don't need to do that for most 99% of stories out there. And I think that anyone that's like, you absolutely have to work with film if you want to call yourself a filmmaker. I was just like. I don't know about that. Can you imagine if I had a cut?

• 21:06Speaker 03

  So you do IMAX and Omnimax, Iron Lung and Omnimax?

• 21:10Speaker 04

  Omnimax, which one's the Omnimax?

• 21:12Speaker 03

  I think, isn't that like the big theater?

• 21:13Speaker 06

  That's the big like dome screen theater where like it-

• 21:16Speaker 04

  Ah, it's the one in the Cincinnati Museum.

• 21:19Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah. Like come on an adventure with us. It's just blood and whatever is on the planet.

• 21:26Speaker 04

  Whatever's on the planet. It's a moon. It's a moon. Thank you.

• 21:29Speaker 03

  Hey, you know your stuff. You've been working on this a while, haven't you?

• 21:32Speaker 04

  Yeah, a little bit, yeah. Anyway, that's it. We did a lot of the-

• 21:36Speaker 06

  Oh, wait. Have you seen, have you held a real popcorn bucket?

• 21:41Speaker 04

  No, I haven't.

• 21:43Speaker 06

  They must be in production by now, right? They must be like-

• 21:45Speaker 04

  Actually, I had a conversation with them because they were behind because they got to it late. So they were like, we're not going to have enough to do right there. So we'll do pre-orders. And I was like, oh, well, that's not good because then people won't have it. So I said, what if we release the 3D print file and everyone can print their own buckets? And if they wanted to paint it, they could. If, you know, it's up to them. But if they bring a printed bucket to a theater, Regal's the one who is partnering with us. They get free popcorn, free small popcorn, but they get, you know, they could get free small popcorn. And then like the actual model of the popcorn bucket would be out for everyone available there. And then you, you, they would still be able to sell like the fully painted handmade,

• 22:28Speaker 04

  or not handmade, but you know, hand painted official ones. But then everyone could have their own if they really wanted to.

• 22:34Speaker 06

  That would be pretty sick.

• 22:35Speaker 04

  And I'm able to do that because Molly made the model for the bucket.

• 22:39Speaker 03

  Bless my wife who didn't do that.

• 22:43Speaker 04

  Artist Molly, Molly Brown.

• 22:44Speaker 03

  You claim, and yet every time you mean to text her, Molly gets a coupon for a free ride somewhere, but-

• 22:51Speaker 03

  She never knows where she's going, but that, that drive's always coming to pick her up.

• 22:55Speaker 04

  So anyway, yeah, that's it. So this will be the end of movie talk for quite some time.

• 23:00Speaker 03

  Well, that can't be true. We're going to have to talk about it after it comes out when we see it. We saw it, but we saw a two year ago edition, year and a half ago, whatever it was, the dish. So-

• 23:08Speaker 06

  It's probably pretty similar.

• 23:09Speaker 04

  I mean, it's in an ocean of blood still.

• 23:11Speaker 03

  It's just going to be like Comic Sans font now is the big change.

• 23:14Speaker 04

  I, I did that for a second on some temporary stuff and people, I, I got a, I got an email from someone. They were like, uh, I don't mean to be out of place here, Mark, but um-

• 23:25Speaker 06

  Maybe a different font choice would be for the best.

• 23:31Speaker 03

  That's really funny. I don't know what else to talk about. I feel like we've kind of been along on this journey for so long. Like, what's next? What will, what will Mark do? What's the next movie? Is it already work, being worked on?

• 23:41Speaker 04

  No, not really. I, I don't have anything.

• 23:43Speaker 03

  Steel kidney?

• 23:44Speaker 04

  Steel kidney. Good idea. Go 50 50 on it?

• 23:48Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 23:51Speaker 03

  It's already more than zero. So yes.

• 23:53Speaker 04

  Yeah, okay. All right then. Nah, yeah, I'm gonna, I'm gonna stick to YouTube for a bit and just relax.

• 23:58Speaker 03

  I do that all my life. I really am like, it's, it's wild that like, I still go to like the Milford Cinema quite often. Uh, cause just nostalgia. It's like, you know, the place we went growing up. To think that like, I don't know, it's weird. Of all the places your face is going to be soon. To be like in a theater where it's like, oh, we're gonna go watch the movie stars and these great movies and crazy things. It's like, you've made something that's going to be played on one of those screens. It's, it's a wild thought.

• 24:24Speaker 04

  I mean, it's more than I thought it would ever be. So this is, has already been, the, the shock of that thankfully is kind of passed a little bit. Um, and now I just continue to get to enjoy it. I, I love the fans because they're so funny sometimes. Cause there's a lot of them. I see poster reels as well. Like now, now guys, everyone, please don't get your hopes up. He's a first time filmmaker. You know, not everyone's the first opportunity is gonna be that great. You know, he's a real mid actor. We, we just gotta support him. We just gotta.

• 24:55Speaker 03

  Think 1970s Incredible Hulk, not 2020 Endgame, you know?

• 25:03Speaker 03

  We got some claymation Godzilla coming in.

• 25:06Speaker 04

  They know how to conserve their faith.

• 25:08Speaker 03

  Movie stars is just Mark holding like a toy submarine.

• 25:11Speaker 06

  It doesn't, I mean, it, it does, that does happen on the Distractible subreddit sometimes, but man, there, I have never seen a subreddit quite like r slash Mark. Filled with people who you can tell are just genuinely trying to be as nice as they possibly can be. And are just chucking spears right at your heart with every sentence they type. I really do think you mean to be nice, but please, please stop.

• 25:38Speaker 04

  Nah, it's fine. I wouldn't have it any other way because this keeps their expectations really low so that when I surpass them, they'll be like,

• 25:48Speaker 04

  I can't wait. Oh, man. The opening is gonna crap my fucking balls.

• 25:52Speaker 03

  Are you doing like a late night tour of or anything like, don't people go around and promote stuff after it's come out? Are you doing that?

• 25:57Speaker 04

  Uh, yes, I have like a bajillion interviews this weekend. Um,

• 26:01Speaker 03

  Oh, hell.

• 26:02Speaker 04

  I have to be at the first one at the Chinese theater on the 27th and then I have a Q and A one at a regal on the 28th and then I'm hoping to get to Cincinnati for some of the opening weekend ones. That would be very fun.

• 26:12Speaker 03

  That's exciting.

• 26:13Speaker 04

  That would be very nice. Haven't been back in a bit. Missed Christmas, but it's weird. I came back home after it was like when I, when I finally was like, oh, fuck, it's done. Like, and I just, I just laid on the couch. I cried. Like, I cried like you wouldn't believe just the stress just leaving my body. It was nuts. I didn't even realize I'd been holding on to it that hard. It might have been like 30 minutes. I just cried and it was, and I felt so just light afterwards. Ah, it was nice.

• 26:41Speaker 03

  Yeah, no, there's definitely been some moments of like tension we've seen. I'm sure you've bottled up even more than that. I can't imagine what this amount of pressure would feel like and also finally getting to relieve it. That's way more than I could, I could imagine going through.

• 26:54Speaker 04

  Yeah. I mean, I would have been fine with it was just the 60 to 100. That'd be totally fun. And now, uh, now it's more and that's just, this is really cool. I hope it opens up doors, not just for me, but for other creators out there. I think that it's a really cool opportunity that a lot of people are rallying around and then just, yeah.

• 27:11Speaker 03

  I don't mean to be a spear herler.

• 27:13Speaker 04

  Okay, hurl me.

• 27:15Speaker 03

  Actually, it's not you. I think that you in space with who killed Mark with, um, I used with all those things. Like, I think you've been innovative. You've been creative. You've done amazing and new and interesting things. I think a lot of creators are more like me and take like the laziest path possible. Once they get like a chance to make something, I think that opening more doors for you could lead to some really cool stuff and other creators. There's some other creators that could also do some amazing things, but I feel like there's definitely going to be some subpar stuff that would come out of that sphere because not everybody has the drive and the passion that you do. In this industry, a lot of people are creative, which is amazing, but there's a mixture of people. There's people that are in it just for the money. There's people that are in it just for the creative side. There's people that are in it for some mix of both.

• 27:56Speaker 03

  And probably other motivations that I'm not even thinking of right now. So I hope more people like you come out and make amazing things. But I do think that there's going to be a lot of subpar stuff from people that have a platform, but don't put in the kind of effort and work and passion that you do.

• 28:09Speaker 04

  Oh, well, I mean, thank you for your faith in me. And I do know, yeah, there probably are going to be some real shit video game adaptations after this. I got a funny feeling, not saying, not naming any names.

• 28:20Speaker 03

  Every video game movie's been great before now, so I can't imagine.

• 28:23Speaker 04

  Yeah. But I think there actually will be, it'll be a mixed bag, right? But I think overall, just as a trend, there's, there's huge opportunities for these not to cost. I've said that for a while now, it's not to cost a bajillion dollars to make a movie. I think that, I think that there is a market to have, you know, the low budget, under a million dollar budget. Movies in theaters for people to see. I think that's fun. I think that there's plenty of opportunity for that. And I hope, I hope to see more of it, even, even a shitty movie I would love to go see. I kind of like to see bad movies every once in a while. Just, it doesn't have to be cats where it's like already a $300 million movie. And it's also bad, you know? We don't need that. We can have a $500,000 bad movie, but people go see it.

• 29:05Speaker 03

  I saw people that were comparing cats to your meow video and giving your meow video the higher rating between the two.

• 29:12Speaker 04

  I thought you were going to like put buttholes on them or something like that. Didn't they have to edit out the buttholes in cats?

• 29:17Speaker 03

  Why were there buttholes to, they have, wouldn't they have had to edit them in? Were they naked?

• 29:21Speaker 06

  Anatomical correctness, Wade. Cats have buttholes, even giant humanoid, human sized cats.

• 29:28Speaker 03

  I just assumed those were CGI. They could choose whether or not to make the buttholes.

• 29:32Speaker 06

  What do you think they're licking down there?

• 29:35Speaker 03

  Dessert? I don't know.

• 29:37Speaker 06

  It is dessert. Butthole dessert.

• 29:41Speaker 06

  It's actually what we call Lexi.

• 29:42Speaker 03

  Butthole dessert. What do we say about pottying on the floor?

• 29:45Speaker 04

  You know what the horrible thing about that was? And now that I've, I've done more of VFX myself is they didn't have any of the actors wearing like tracking suits.

• 29:53Speaker 06

  What were they? Wait, I assume, how, what were they wearing?

• 29:56Speaker 04

  Now, normal clothes, which is almost im-fucking possible to track on because it's moving and rippling and.

• 30:04Speaker 03

  I thought they'd be like full suit, green dots or whatever. I thought they'd have the whole.

• 30:08Speaker 04

  You'd think, but the director who had very little experience in VFX was like, nah, I don't want them getting distracted with these suits.

• 30:16Speaker 03

  That makes me sad.

• 30:17Speaker 04

  It is very sad. Yeah.

• 30:19Speaker 06

  It's almost funnier. So for like people outside the industry, which I'm including myself in like, when you see the footage of like a Marvel movie and you see it's like a huge fucking blue everything on there, standing on blue boulders and like Iron Man is just covered in tracking dot and all this shit. And like the only one who's not covered in blue and dots and shit is like Chris Evans, because Captain America just is a guy. And, and you see the behind and they're like acting and you're like, huh, that was, that'd be so silly. That must be hard. It would be way, way fucking funnier if it's just a room full of normal looking people wearing normal clothes, but they're all like, I'm a cat. I'm a cat. I'm a big fucking cat.

• 31:04Speaker 04

  Honestly, like, I would have loved to watch that.

• 31:06Speaker 06

  You need a little bit of suspension of reality to be a human cat, not.

• 31:11Speaker 03

  With like Thanos, one of the other big bad guys, not only did they have the tracking stuff, didn't they have like just a little rod with like a thing on it? They're like, this is where you look to look into my face.

• 31:19Speaker 06

  Yeah. For a line of sight, they have like extensions or whatever, because you, you need all the line of sights to line up correctly.

• 31:26Speaker 03

  So you're not even looking at the actor's face while you're like yelling at them. You're looking at like something floating above their head.

• 31:31Speaker 04

  Oh, I might be wrong about that. Oh, wait, no, I might be, I might've been misled. I might've been got. It looks like they did have sub tracking suits. My bad.

• 31:41Speaker 06

  I like Mark's version better.

• 31:44Speaker 04

  Where did I hear that? Yeah, I blame Corridor for that one. I'm gonna throw Corridor under the bus for that one.

• 31:51Speaker 00

• 32:51Speaker 03

  I'm fine with this. Just chit chat about anything else, anything like current event wise you guys want to talk about?

• 32:55Speaker 04

  Oh, nothing's been happening in the world worth talking about, so.

• 32:59Speaker 06

  No, it's been pretty boring, I think. I've been walking around like this, but I'm pretty sure it's all boring and everything's fine.

• 33:05Speaker 04

  Oh, I've been walking around like this, you know?

• 33:08Speaker 06

  You gotta be careful, though. Stuff above you is not what you want to be looking at. You should wear hats.

• 33:14Speaker 04

  No, I squint really hard.

• 33:16Speaker 03

  I just do not watch the news. You hear some of the big things, but it's not good. Video game wise, oh, I did have some video game stuff I want to talk about. I forget what it was, though. There's a lot of Pokemon fan games, right? And I saw a ROM hack recently. I don't know how new or old it is, but I think it was called like Pokemon All In, and everything in the game is gambling. Like, you can't catch Pokemon. You earn and gamble for coins to go to like a one of those little gumball type machines, and you put your tokens in, and a random Pokemon pops out, and that's the one you're stuck with and whatever. All the items, like potions and stuff, you can't buy them. You gotta go get them in a casino. There's loan sharks. It's an entire just gambling experience. Then you go fight so

• 33:58Speaker 03

  you can get more money to buy gambling tokens. Free, real life free, in-game, all gambling.

• 34:04Speaker 04

  Yeah, well, you know, that's where the world's moving towards.

• 34:07Speaker 06

  You mean surprise mechanics? God, I love surprise mechanics.

• 34:11Speaker 04

  Surprise mechanics. Is that what they're calling it nowadays?

• 34:14Speaker 06

  That's what they've been called since they were surprise mechanics in Battlefield 2. I thought I had a video game I wanted to talk about, but oh, Hightail. You guys have any interest in Hightail?

• 34:23Speaker 03

  Yes, but I have not played it or seen it.

• 34:25Speaker 06

  It's what was originally the Minecraft mod called Hightail.

• 34:30Speaker 06

  Pixel, I think it was like they would, they decided to make it its own game. It's unrelated to Minecraft, but it's a similar like it's based the block based crafting game. But then it like development died and it got sold to, got sold to Riot Games and then they like killed it and it was just shelved. And then some point, the original developers got the rights back. They bought it back from Riot. It just came out in like early access, uh, like, um, last, a week ago or something like that. But like, it's like, it's like, it feels like Minecraft 2.0. It's different. It's markedly different. It's not just like a copycat, copycat, but I've played a little bit of it and it's fascinating and it was like nostalgic, but fresh in that way where it's like it

• 35:13Speaker 06

  captures the Minecraft thing, but I was having a lot of fun with it, which I haven't played a solo survival game ever since I spent time in Minecraft messing around. So.

• 35:24Speaker 03

  Is it solo?

• 35:25Speaker 06

  You can play multiplayer, but I just, I just started my own world and was just messing around and playing solo and like, I didn't even try and get anyone to play with. I was like happy to play by myself, which I thought was super interesting, but given our personal history with Minecraft and general connection to it, I'm just feel like, I mean, maybe we should play it together and see if it's fun, but also I was curious if you guys know about it or if you were, if you try it, let me know. Cause I'm curious how you, how you like it.

• 35:50Speaker 03

  I heard if, if Minecraft was made like in 2025, it'd be like what it looks like or whatever else. Like those are the things I've heard, but nothing specific. I know it's still very early access.

• 35:59Speaker 06

  Yeah, it's, it's not, it's just early access. It's not even on like, uh, like Steam or anything. You have to go to their website and like buy an early backers edition and they let you download the launcher and stuff all directly from them, but.

• 36:11Speaker 04

  Kind of like how original Minecraft was, I guess.

• 36:14Speaker 06

  I mean, that's kind of how it feels. Honestly, like it feels, it does feel like if Minecraft just came out this year instead of in 2009 or whatever. Um, but it's interesting. We have a lot of connections to that game between the three of us.

• 36:27Speaker 03

  You guys like Factory Builders, right? Like Satisfactory and Factory and stuff.

• 36:30Speaker 04

  They're fun, sure.

• 36:31Speaker 03

  I've not done much of it, but there's one called Alchemy Factory, where it's like you're a shop owner and you're making like health potions and stuff and you have to like build a factory to make those. Then like you have ways of getting them to the shelves where people come and buy them. And then there was one that just came out in early access called Star Rupture, which is kind of like Satisfactory, but a heavier focus on fighting. I thought those might be interesting games.

• 36:53Speaker 04

  It could be fun, I guess.

• 36:55Speaker 03

  Uh, I got really into Satisfactory. I guess the three of us played it. I don't remember playing with you guys. Sorry, but I don't. But I played it with Molly a whole bunch and we got very deep into it. I had a very, very intricate factory and it got to the point where I had to like re-optimize everything at the very end game. I just couldn't bring myself to do it. So I never finished it. But I got super into like the factory building stuff and trying to like min-max and make sure like you have the right amount of smelters to miners to, you know, distributions that you're using all your resources efficiently. I think that's fun. It can be very tedious and taxing, but it's very fun.

• 37:25Speaker 06

  It doesn't sound like either of you would enjoy playing those games with me, but I do like them in my own special way.

• 37:31Speaker 03

  Does that mean?

• 37:32Speaker 06

  I like to make nightmares. I've, I've talked to you guys about, um, what's it called? Game it out or whatever. Let's game it out.

• 37:39Speaker 04

  Oh, yeah. I think I remember that.

• 37:41Speaker 06

  Who just makes like, uh, you know, pushes things to the limits and makes crazy. That's how I play those sort of games. I still find them very fun, but I don't play them efficiently and I make a scary bullshit that never works quite right and looks ridiculous.

• 37:54Speaker 03

  That's fun too, but like I said, once you get to the end game and you have to like, you've got 18 layers of production that have to get to this machine that takes like six inputs. It's like, if you don't have it somewhat optimized, it's just, you're never going to get anything done.

• 38:07Speaker 06

  You just keep connecting stuff until you, until it works, right?

• 38:10Speaker 04

  Yeah, it'll work eventually. If it doesn't, you're not trying hard enough and you need to try harder.

• 38:16Speaker 06

  If it doesn't, you haven't connected everything. Just plug more stuff into more stuff.

• 38:20Speaker 04

  Uh, there's a few interesting things in the world out there that if you guys are curious about, um, let's say the 25 worst items pulled from people's butt in 2025.

• 38:30Speaker 03

  I think that gave me heartburn. What did you just say?

• 38:32Speaker 06

  Are they unique or are they the same 25 worst items from last year? Cause I know, I know there's basically the same collection year to year, but I'm just curious.

• 38:41Speaker 03

  Is one of them Steveo from Jackass?

• 38:43Speaker 06

  All of Steveo.

• 38:45Speaker 04

  I'll tell you, Rock is on this list.

• 38:47Speaker 06

  Dwayne?

• 38:49Speaker 04

  It says A-Rock, but it's not, you know, doesn't specify which rock. It might, it might be The Rock, but it might not.

• 38:55Speaker 06

  Gary A-Rock Stevenson? He's way less famous than The Rock.

• 39:00Speaker 03

  Some animals eat rocks that like, and they'll help in digestion. Maybe someone butt chugged a rock hoping it would help with their digestion issues.

• 39:06Speaker 04

  It could be. Uh, there's not many explanations of why. There's a couple here, but I'll go through it. A thermos.

• 39:14Speaker 03

  Uh, like a whole thermos?

• 39:15Speaker 06

  That sounds big. That sounds too big to me. I wouldn't want, that doesn't sound good.

• 39:19Speaker 04

  It was discovered only during a police body scan, so I'm assuming.

• 39:23Speaker 03

  It was holding something other than coffee?

• 39:25Speaker 04

  Yeah.

• 39:26Speaker 06

  Tea.

• 39:27Speaker 04

  A corn cob style pipe.

• 39:29Speaker 03

  And a button nose and two eyes.

• 39:36Speaker 03

  That's where he goes during the summer.

• 39:39Speaker 04

  Okay. So this one, this one's confusing because it says a plastic coat hanger, which is like, okay. But then it also says comma altered so the person could drive to the ER.

• 39:51Speaker 03

  Oh, they were just hanging up their buttholes so they can make alterations.

• 39:54Speaker 04

  I don't know. Did it alter afterwards before? Was it already in there and they altered? Did they like tying a cherry stem with your tongue? Did they alter it? So I gotta drive. So I gotta get this.

• 40:04Speaker 03

  They clenched and just snapped it in half so it would fold up.

• 40:06Speaker 06

  Yeah. I used to know someone who could do that with metal ones. You put a whole metal hanger in, pull out a straight piece of wire, put the straight wire back in, put it back. They pull out a whole hanger, you know, back and forth, back and forth.

• 40:17Speaker 03

  That would actually be amazing to witness, but also no.

• 40:21Speaker 04

  Maybe it was a distractible listener who heard about us bunking our beds and was like, oh, plastic coat hanger. I got one of those. I just need to cut it into sections.

• 40:30Speaker 03

  Like slicing tables that they have that people cut stuff with.

• 40:34Speaker 04

  Someone's butt is just that? That's really scary.

• 40:37Speaker 03

  I can't think of the name of it, but like we had one at school. It was always like a real scary thing to use.

• 40:41Speaker 06

  This was just a paper cutter, like a, like a gay teen style paper cutter?

• 40:44Speaker 03

  Yeah. But like the real giant, it's a giant table. It's a huge blade that you like.

• 40:48Speaker 04

  Chalk.

• 40:49Speaker 03

  So chunk.

• 40:50Speaker 06

  This is like a paper cutter. It's for cutting papers or whatever fits in your butt, I guess.

• 40:55Speaker 04

  I guess. Anyway, we're only three of 25. It was a light bulb.

• 40:59Speaker 06

  You.

• 41:00Speaker 04

  Which end first, do you think?

• 41:02Speaker 06

  I assume they were trying to make it work, so I would assume socket end first. And then when it didn't work, they were like, oh, I must need to screw in further and then just kept going.

• 41:11Speaker 04

  What if it did work when a socket and I was like, I wonder if it would work the other way?

• 41:18Speaker 03

  I'm trying to think of an ass static pun.

• 41:20Speaker 04

  Acidic electricity. Beard clippers wrapped in plastic.

• 41:25Speaker 06

  Ah, for cleanliness?

• 41:28Speaker 04

  For constipation relief.

• 41:30Speaker 06

  Were they on?

• 41:36Speaker 06

  Man, I really need something to vibrate. Ah, I wish I had it. Oh, I know what vibrates.

• 41:41Speaker 03

  I want my shit to come out at a two.

• 41:47Speaker 06

  You pull it out and the guard popped all the way off. You're like, I'm bald in there.

• 41:53Speaker 04

  All right. So then it gets more generic from there. You got a doorknob.

• 41:57Speaker 03

  Sure.

• 41:58Speaker 06

  Sure. Everyone's been there.

• 41:59Speaker 04

  I'm not sure if it was attached to the door.

• 42:02Speaker 03

  Someone walking into the ER was just a fucking door strapped behind the fucking door. How do we get in? Doc, turn the knob. Oh, yeah.

• 42:11Speaker 04

  A sandal, marbles, an egg, uncooked pasta, came out cooked, a dog.

• 42:21Speaker 03

  I thought you were just saying dog, old fucking dog.

• 42:23Speaker 06

  Why would you put uncooked squitting pasta up there? Oh, it was just normal pasta.

• 42:31Speaker 04

  Wait, hold on. What the fuck?

• 42:33Speaker 06

  Cause of the poop, Mark.

• 42:34Speaker 04

  Ah, a toothbrush, film canister, a battery powered light, a flashlight. These are two different entries. Vape, two pencils, a rock, eyeglasses, plastic cleanser bottle filled with liquid.

• 42:51Speaker 03

  Eyeglasses in a case? They keep falling off my shirt. Where am I gonna keep them?

• 42:56Speaker 04

  A wine stopper. That one's obvious. I get what that's for. A wine decanter. I get what that's for as well. That's not on the list. I made it. I made it funny.

• 43:07Speaker 03

  I feel sick.

• 43:10Speaker 04

  Uh, turkey baster, corn cob holder, which I think is the spiky thing that goes into corn cobs.

• 43:17Speaker 03

  Oh, I hope not.

• 43:18Speaker 04

  A full shampoo bottle listed twice. Don't know if that's the same person.

• 43:24Speaker 06

  Put it back in the moment they got it out. Weird dude.

• 43:28Speaker 03

  Head and shoulders, my ass. My ass.

• 43:33Speaker 04

  And then a baseball. The explanation for that was to see what it felt like.

• 43:38Speaker 06

  I don't know why, but I was really hoping the explanation would be out at home.

• 43:44Speaker 06

  Yeah, because he.

• 43:45Speaker 04

  No, I get it. I get it. No, actually, explain it. Explain it for those at home who didn't get it.

• 43:50Speaker 06

  Catcher's garden home plate. His glove has fallen off. He's desperate to make the catch. It's a really, it's a really fast, uh, hard throw from the outfield. It's perfect. And in a fit of desperation, he squats down, catches it at his ass as he makes the tag, but the runner really, you know, there's a lot of contact and it just gets stuck. But he got the out.

• 44:12Speaker 04

  Happens to the best of us.

• 44:13Speaker 06

  Plus he wanted to see how it felt.

• 44:15Speaker 03

  I don't know if we can top what's happened here. So I think that that's the, what people really needed to know about how life's been for us since the last time we did a normal episode. And I think we're gonna, we're gonna wrap it there. The but, the butthole stuffer, stocking stuffers really encapsulates what distractible is.

• 44:32Speaker 06

  I had an article, but that's fine.

• 44:34Speaker 03

  Do you want to share it, Bob?

• 44:35Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 44:36Speaker 03

  If you want to share it.

• 44:36Speaker 06

  That's what was really funny.

• 44:37Speaker 03

  All right. All right. You know what? Fair enough.

• 44:39Speaker 06

  January 13th, authorities in Missouri say that the multiple monkeys who have been on the loose in the St. Louis area have now been joined by a wayward goat. Attempts to find this group of animals are being hampered by AI because people keep generating videos and images of the group of animals being in places where they are not. Also, I just want to say I'm really sorry to this person, but a spokesperson for the, uh, uh, St. Missouri Health Department or St. Louis Health Department, whose name is Willie Springer, said that the search has been further complicated by people making funny joke videos, uh, that

• 45:19Speaker 06

  are AI generated of the animals committing crimes and vandalizing things and jumping on people's trampolines in their backyard. Well, not real trampolines, but, uh, but also Willie Springer.

• 45:31Speaker 03

  Willie, you're wony.

• 45:33Speaker 04

  I'm not gonna lie, a lot of those backyard trampoline videos did get me. Like, fooled me. But now, every time I see a night vision animal video, I'm like, it's gotta be fake.

• 45:41Speaker 06

  No, my favorite, my favorite one, and also the one where that I, that got me, when I, it was all in one night, I watched like, some deer or some bears. And then there was one where a trampoline wanders in the edge of frame and climbs up on the trampoline, and a trampoline is jumping on the trampoline, and I was like, oh, got me.

• 46:02Speaker 04

  But that's very funny.

• 46:04Speaker 03

  Related, unrelated, I feel like I would, I really want to jump on a trampoline, it's been so long. But I feel like I would really not feel good after doing it at this point in life.

• 46:12Speaker 04

  You gotta go to one of those indoor trampoline parks, it's safer. Plus then there'll be lots of people there to videotape it.

• 46:17Speaker 03

  I've been to one of those once, it's been a long time. Was that with you guys?

• 46:19Speaker 04

  Not me. Maybe.

• 47:24Speaker 03

  I got nothing else to say. Any final thoughts or words?

• 47:27Speaker 06

  Mark's, Mark's article was better.

• 47:29Speaker 03

  Animals on trampolines? Great. Buttholes, very distractible, you know? I guess I'll go through the, the points here. Corridor Crew, um, lost a point for the cat lies. I originally was gonna sign that to Mark, but he passed the buck. So Corridor Crew. Has anyone ever gotten just a negative one point? It's not one of us to end an episode?

• 47:49Speaker 04

  I'm sure one of our wives has done that.

• 47:52Speaker 06

  That. Or like listeners or watchers or something.

• 47:55Speaker 03

  I know we've given points. I don't know if I've ever done a negative to someone else, but anyway, congrats Corridor for maybe having the record just first. Um, Mark, you got points for something, man, Bob and I were just talking about how I can't read any of my writing.

• 48:08Speaker 06

  We were talking about that.

• 48:09Speaker 03

  Sound to make out now? That can't be what that is.

• 48:13Speaker 06

  What?

• 48:14Speaker 03

  I think to make out is actually two words, not three. I just can't tell which, where they begin and end. Maybe people have been making out during Iron Lawn, you know, who knows? Uh, the final, final stretch. You're a Da Vinci shill. Cats, not fair light, decanter, 2028 items and butthole.

• 48:32Speaker 04

  There's a big jump from not fair light to decanter. I feel like in the, if we were to look at the time code of the movie or the episode.

• 48:39Speaker 03

  Yeah, I got kinda caught up in conversation and probably didn't assign any points for a while, but it's okay. You get seven there.

• 48:45Speaker 06

  It's okay. All right. Okay. All right. I'll take it. I'll take it. I'll take it.

• 48:47Speaker 03

  Bob, you got points for walking New York real men. Remember that when you said that?

• 48:53Speaker 04

  Walking New York real men.

• 48:55Speaker 06

  I do it every day.

• 48:56Speaker 03

  Oh, New Year's resolution. Walking New Year's resolutions, what that is. Uh, Beatles, uh, you're a better friend than I am. Uh, you gave out my full legal name.

• 49:08Speaker 06

  Mark did that, but sure, yeah.

• 49:10Speaker 03

  But if Rat Room Money? That can't be what that says.

• 49:14Speaker 06

  This is worse than usual.

• 49:15Speaker 04

  Man, what episode did you listen to? This sounds like a cool episode.

• 49:21Speaker 03

  I, I started to write butthole something that you said. I didn't finish it. So it just says butthole Y. Uh, high tail, animals on trampolines and had to explain your baseball joke.

• 49:31Speaker 06

  Whoa, whoa. Now there was a big gap in mine too. Wait a minute.

• 49:35Speaker 03

  It adds up to nine. So right now it's nine to seven, Bob.

• 49:39Speaker 04

  Them's the breaks.

• 49:40Speaker 03

  What'd we do after that? I forget. Wheels? Wheels?

• 49:43Speaker 06

  The wheel thing.

• 49:44Speaker 03

  Oh man, how could I forget? These were so good to me last time.

• 49:47Speaker 06

  I think a two would be real funny.

• 49:49Speaker 03

  Much prefer one.

• 49:53Speaker 03

  Three is just too random. We want to see that sweet number.

• 49:57Speaker 04

  All right, I got a chance.

• 50:00Speaker 06

  All right. Well, what do you add to the wheel?

• 50:02Speaker 03

  I hadn't got that far. Made most references to the past. How are we gonna keep track of it? No idea. If anyone comes up, we'll say, I don't know, we'll move on.

• 50:12Speaker 04

  I mean, it's a new one. I gotta, yeah.

• 50:15Speaker 06

  All right, we're shut hold and we get one big old spin. Man, imagine if out of 88 options, you land on it's a tie.

• 50:25Speaker 03

  We don't have to. Let's just go point to the listeners like usual and move on.

• 50:34Speaker 06

  Used best word.

• 50:36Speaker 03

  Decanter is the best one I have written down that Mark said.

• 50:40Speaker 06

  But I said vicissitude.

• 50:42Speaker 04

  When did you say vicissitude? That's a great word.

• 50:44Speaker 06

  Well, I probably said that somewhere in there. I use that word all the time.

• 50:48Speaker 03

  Mark gets it for decanter. God damn it.

• 50:52Speaker 03

  I was like, that is a good word. I remember you saying it, but what a great word.

• 50:55Speaker 06

  Am I the host now? Cause I win?

• 50:58Speaker 03

  I guess so. Congratulations, Bob. You're the victor. It's not a tie. That's so sad. I can't believe it.

• 51:04Speaker 04

  Ah, it's close. It's close.

• 51:06Speaker 03

  It was close and I would have liked it at the end. Yeah. But you know, at the end, Bob, you came out ahead. So why don't you give us a winner's speech?

• 51:11Speaker 06

  It's been so long since we've done an actual episode of this podcast that I sort of forgot how it worked. But now that we've had a chance to warm up, I remember it doesn't, doesn't really work the same way every time anyway. So it's gonna feel just as new and awkward next time. Which is hilarious because how many, we're verging on 400 episodes of this now? Something like that?

• 51:31Speaker 04

  Good lord, really?

• 51:32Speaker 06

  We're just somewhere in that ballpark.

• 51:35Speaker 04

  Oh, that's pretty cool.

• 51:36Speaker 06

  Still, you know what? You guys keep it fresh. Congratulations to us all, but mostly me, I guess.

• 51:42Speaker 04

  Congratulations.

• 51:44Speaker 03

  Yeah, that was, it was nice for a second there. Um, Mark, not winner's speech.

• 51:49Speaker 04

  Uh, I didn't win, and that's what happened. Um, I came into this show, I didn't get points. He did. Therefore, one is bigger than the other. Which one was the bigger number? Is that the winner? Yes. Am I the loser? Also, yes. Are these the facts? And is this what happened? That's for the judge to decide, and he did. The end.

• 52:17Speaker 03

  Well said. With writing like that, I can't wait for the movie coming out here in just a few days, guys. If you haven't gotten tickets, go see Iron Lung. 3D print your buckets. And, uh, I guess stay tuned for another episode of this where Bob will be hosting. If you haven't already, go follow Bob at MySkirm, Mark at MarkApplier, or is it ironlung.com? That just looks like it.

• 52:34Speaker 04

  Yeah, why'd you say it like that? That's clearly the correct answer. You did it. Yeah.

  Thank God.
