  Good evening, gentle listeners or watchers, and welcome. Too Distractable. This episode. Booing Bob doesn't know Kryptonian law, loves rectal, and starts semantic situations. Middon-making Mark gets poisoned by pricks, wets himself, goes urethral, lords Warhammer, and maniacally directs Wade's bottom. Witty Wade swallows sausage, goes crawling, fears myocardial infarctions, then strincherers his yang hole. From superfan Superman to caring less. Heh heh heh heh heh. It's time for Oxford 3002.

• 2:14Speaker 04

  Now, sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show.

• 2:22Speaker 05

  Hello, everybody, and welcome to Superman's favorite podcast. You can't prove that it's not unless is, does he canonically have a favorite?

• 2:32Speaker 06

  Yeah, distractible.

• 2:34Speaker 05

  Su- super D. Duper Man. Uh, oh, I don't know enough about comic books to make this joke. I asked him and he told me we're his favorite Superman's favorite. That's us. That's right. It's distractible.

• 2:45Speaker 07

  You talked to Superman?

• 2:46Speaker 05

  Yeah, we're buddies.

• 2:47Speaker 07

  On the reg?

• 2:48Speaker 05

  I go to his fortress of quietude and I hang out with him and his cat and we talk about podcasts. And is this all true?

• 2:57Speaker 07

  That sounds like Superman, kinda.

• 3:00Speaker 05

  It's made of dry ice.

• 3:01Speaker 07

  The cat?

• 3:02Speaker 05

  The cat.

• 3:03Speaker 07

  Ah.

• 3:05Speaker 05

  Anyway, if you've never seen Distractible before, my name's Bob and I'm the host because I won the last one. There's two other guys here. They're competing to win this one. Cause then that means they host the next one. That's it. That's all the rules. There's no constitution or any other bullshit. It's just those three rules. Three, two, that one rule really is what matters. The people who will be competing today, as always, as only ever are Mark and Wade.

• 3:31Speaker 07

  Hi.

• 3:32Speaker 06

  Hello.

• 3:33Speaker 05

  I thought we were just leading into the viewers today. You don't have to address the listeners. You can just, we could just do a sign language episode.

• 3:40Speaker 07

  I love the listeners because I love ears.

• 3:45Speaker 06

  He's an ear man. We got an ear man over here.

• 3:47Speaker 07

  I'm an ear man. Everyone knows this.

• 3:49Speaker 06

  I don't know. Well, my voice had to change to call you an ear man, but now you're an ear man.

• 3:52Speaker 07

  Last ear man was in 1920s.

• 3:56Speaker 07

  Before talkies came on the scene.

• 3:58Speaker 06

  Nobody's always talkies. They need the ear man.

• 4:00Speaker 07

  In one ear, out the other, and he'll know what I'm saying.

• 4:02Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah. I'd like to go in both.

• 4:09Speaker 05

  I don't like what just crashed into your 1920s and I'm not a fan of it. Whatever that was, I hated.

• 4:15Speaker 07

  The Penguin gun there, you know?

• 4:19Speaker 05

  The old transatlantic Kentucky accent there. Um, anyway, welcome to the episode. How's it going, fellas? Well, I have a game. I do have a game. I know everyone expects me to be unprepared because I'm always unprepared, but I'm prepared. And the more I say it, the more true it becomes. But before we do that, how's it going? You guys got any small talk? Anything going on in your cool lives?

• 4:40Speaker 07

  Yeah, I do. Um, so I went through some of the most devastating bowel exploding, body shaking, adverse reactions you've ever experienced. You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying? Kind of. There's been a few times.

• 4:58Speaker 05

  I'm familiar.

• 4:59Speaker 07

  What happened? I went.

• 5:04Speaker 07

  You hear that?

• 5:06Speaker 07

  Looking ghosts? All right. Amy and I were going to travel soon, um, both for our honeymoon and for other reasons. Uh, so it's like, oh, we need to get some travel vaccines, right? To go to certain places, you need certain vaccines. I go to, uh, this travel vaccine place, right? Won't name it, but it's like, it was fine. Person was fine there. And, and I went there because of like, I don't know what's recommended to go to these places. So it's like, we're going here, here, here, and here. What do we need? And it's like, well, let me pull up your vaccine records and it's like, oh, you haven't had your tetanus in fucking forever. You haven't gotten a boost to, yeah, do you go to the doctor?

• 5:47Speaker 07

  And I'm like, well, I swear I go to the hospital a lot, but you know, I don't usually, I don't usually, uh, I guess I haven't really checked in on that. Um, so I needed four, four vaccines, two new, two boosters, well, three new, one booster or something like that. I don't know. They got the super syringe, you know, for the everything. Oh, the big juicer? Yeah. The every 10 year kind of mega one they. It's normal size for Bob and I, but for you, it would look like that.

• 6:19Speaker 06

  Come on, man.

• 6:20Speaker 07

  Sorry, sorry. I hope that wheel spin doesn't come back to bite me later.

• 6:24Speaker 06

  Come on, man. Come on.

• 6:27Speaker 07

  Yeah, I'm making note of the short joke. But it was really funny.

• 6:32Speaker 06

  Come on, man.

• 6:34Speaker 07

  All right, yeah, it was funny. So I get all mine. I take it like a champ, you know, I didn't even cry, you know. Ah, four Band-Aids, bam bam bam bam, two on each arm, right? Get home, I'm like, okay, I'll probably feel a little funky. Cause when I, when I got the COVID vaccine, you know, that was the last time I took one and I felt sick. Oh, yeah, that one always hits me too. Yeah, usually I take the flu vaccine, I don't feel that bad. But I started feeling a little queasy and then my stomach started rumbling. And then I had the worst chills I've ever had in my life. I was under three blankets, one of which was a heating blanket, and I couldn't stop shivering.

• 7:15Speaker 07

  It was a heat wave here in Los Angeles. It was 95 degrees outside, sun blaring. I was laying out on my driveway. I felt comfortable, like I could feel my body starting to cook, like on the, the, the. I don't have a blacktop driveway, but it's like darker. And I was just like, oh, wow, this is kind of nice. And then I saw I was gonna throw up. I couldn't tell if it was from the sickness or from, you know, just being in the sun like that. So I go in, draw a hot bath, slay in that, and I'm just like, I can't get warm, no matter what. The second, the second, like I'm, I'm out of the heat, I just start shivering violently. So I go into a fugue state for about six, eight hours.

• 7:59Speaker 07

  I have no idea, just on the couch, under the heated blankets after the bath. And I was just like, and we didn't have a thermometer. I wanted to know what my temperature was. Yeah, you might have been running a fever of some kind. That's a good, good call. Well, I bet I was like, I'm, I must be hitting a record, right? 122 Celsius. I gotta hit the high score here. I really would. That was my only thought. Cause I know if you get too high of a fever, you know, you, you should go to the hospital. Yeah, you did.

• 8:27Speaker 05

  Yeah, no, hospital first, probably, yeah.

• 8:29Speaker 07

  Yeah, but you should see if your body could take it first. Yeah, yeah. So, um, what was unfortunate is, um, I was sleeping it off and usually, you know, that's why I sleep it off. But Amy started to get worried because it was going on for so long. As I was starting to woke up and I started feeling a little better, the chills finally went away. And it was, it was funny because three blankets, heated blanket, felt comfortable. Oh, my God, I'm dying from heat. Like, it was boom, instantly, I woke up like, ah, sweat. Like, just, just the entire couch was soaked because I was napping on the couch, just like sweat everywhere instantly. So I must have been very, very warm. And so she gets, uh, like, she goes to, you know, the pharmacy to get me some Gatorade because I'm like dying of thirst. I need some electrolytes.

• 9:14Speaker 07

  She comes back and we get the thermometer and I'm like, I feel fine now at this point. I feel fine. So I'm like, it's probably going to be normal. Let's just check to make sure. I feel fine. I feel way less chills than I did before. Bleep, bleep, bleep, 100 degrees. And that's when I felt fine. So I really must have had a high fever.

• 9:34Speaker 05

  Yeah, if you hit like 104, you're like, you're close to the dying part and you're supposed to really get to the hospital part.

• 9:44Speaker 07

  Yeah, I, I would probably should, we'll have, we have a thermometer now. I probably should have, probably should have kept that around.

• 9:50Speaker 05

  Did you go rectal or did you be, are you a wuss?

• 9:53Speaker 07

  Uh, one ear out the other.

• 9:57Speaker 07

  I go whole, I go urethral, actually, is what I have for my thermometer.

• 10:01Speaker 05

  Ah, that's the other, yeah, that's the good way.

• 10:03Speaker 07

  Yeah, it's the only way to get an accurate reading, yeah.

• 10:07Speaker 05

  Plus, when you're done, you just, yeah, pee it back out.

• 10:11Speaker 05

  It's self ejecting. You don't have to, you have to do anything. It's convenient.

• 10:15Speaker 07

  Uh, so that was my weekend.

• 10:17Speaker 05

  That's not great, dude. I'm glad you have a thermometer now. You might have set some kind of record.

• 10:22Speaker 07

  I might have, yeah. But this is the things like, I've actually had time to have like weekends to myself. So for some reason, the past few weekends, I just haven't been able to relax. And so last weekend was kind of the, what do they call it? The cream on the cake, the...

• 10:35Speaker 05

  Icing on the cake?

• 10:36Speaker 06

  The cream.

• 10:38Speaker 05

  You know, it's the cream.

• 10:39Speaker 06

  He did it at a high temperature for a little bit.

• 10:42Speaker 05

  Mark is, Mark is broke. He don't work no more.

• 10:45Speaker 07

  So I'm better now. Um, I feel great. I've had an upload schedule, which is nice. Uh, everything else is going great. The minor heat induced brain damage, you know, I can shrug that off and I'm, I'm good, man. I feel like I lost a few pounds in that time when I was going through that.

• 11:03Speaker 06

  Man, hold on. I need to go get these vaccines. Give me the ones you got.

• 11:06Speaker 07

  Yeah, just go to the doctor, say like, give me the big one. Get, get that big one. I've been, oh, I haven't had.

• 11:12Speaker 06

  I need that big syringe.

• 11:14Speaker 07

  I think it might've been the typhoid one that got me.

• 11:19Speaker 06

  I think it's a Pokemon.

• 11:20Speaker 05

  Typhoid, typhoid, typhoid.

• 11:22Speaker 06

  Go typhoid Mary. Go.

• 11:27Speaker 06

  Whoa, that was tasteless.

• 11:29Speaker 07

  Yeah, man, a little bit.

• 11:31Speaker 06

  Oh, I'm sorry. We can't make typhoid Mary jokes.

• 11:34Speaker 05

  Honestly, I barely, barely registered because I was trying to think of my own joke. And then when you said that, I was like, ah, I don't know if mine's gonna beat that.

• 11:42Speaker 06

  I thought, oh, it evolves at a typhlosion. But I was like, that's a real Pokemon. Is that funny? Is it not funny?

• 11:47Speaker 05

  Typhlosion?

• 11:48Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 11:49Speaker 07

  Typhlosion, really?

• 11:50Speaker 06

  Gen two starter, Cinderquill, Llama Typhlosion. It's real. It's real. It's real. Mark, you smashed your pass this typhlosion at one point.

• 11:56Speaker 07

  Did I?

• 11:57Speaker 06

  It's like a fire ferret.

• 11:59Speaker 07

  I don't think I ever got its name. I think I just saw pictures.

• 12:02Speaker 06

  You looked at one, you know, you've seen it. It's real.

• 12:05Speaker 05

  You don't need to know a name to smash your pass, I guess.

• 12:08Speaker 06

  Well, we're glad you're alive.

• 12:09Speaker 05

  Yeah, we're talking about how you barely almost died in the last week.

• 12:12Speaker 07

  Apparently, yeah. Yeah, man. Yeah.

• 12:14Speaker 05

  That's an adventure of its own kind. Good job surviving.

• 12:18Speaker 07

  Thank you. Thank you. I tried.

• 12:20Speaker 05

  Wait, how did you almost die this past week?

• 12:23Speaker 06

  I had five hot dogs.

• 12:25Speaker 05

  In the week or in the one?

• 12:27Speaker 06

  One day.

• 12:29Speaker 07

  Fuck yeah, man.

• 12:30Speaker 05

  Uh, over the course of a whole day or?

• 12:34Speaker 06

  Four hours.

• 12:35Speaker 07

  Okay, this is, this is either a really, you know, it's normal day, sad day, or, or were you in a competition?

• 12:43Speaker 06

  So I, I had three Conies. I had three Conies from Sky.

• 12:46Speaker 05

  Oh, those are tiny, but they have chili and cheese on them. Sure, sure.

• 12:50Speaker 06

  And then we went to my nephew had like a birthday get together and they were grilling out. Molly and I didn't have a lot of time because we were gonna go see Project Hill Mary. So they were grilling out and they made the whatever people are grabbing food and there were just a few hot dogs. I was like, I'll just grab a couple of hot dogs. And as I was eating, I was like, wait, that's what I had for lunch, too. Oh, God, it's like I'm 15 again. I'm gonna die later. We end up being fine. Transition, though. Project Hill Mary was fantastic movie. Really fantastic movie. Loved the book. Movie also fantastic.

• 13:16Speaker 05

  So you've read the book?

• 13:18Speaker 06

  I have, and the movie, I didn't get pissed off watching the movie. I actually really enjoyed it. And usually whenever you read a book and immediately see a movie afterward, you're like, I can't believe they cut out my favorite thing. But it was a really good, faithful adaptation. I really, really enjoyed it. So highly recommend. I won't say anything else about it. I don't want to spoil. I recommend reading the book and then see the movie, but whatever. Very good. I have another update. What was it? It's right there. It's gone. Oh, I told Bob this, but Mark, you don't know this. I finally, finally, last night, I was laying in bed. Molly was asleep. I finally got my hands on it. What? Where is this going? I started Dungeon Crawler Carl.

• 13:58Speaker 07

  Oh, why is this me? Is Bob singing? But thank you for the attribution.

• 14:03Speaker 06

  Well, I told him already, so I gotta tell you.

• 14:06Speaker 07

  Wait, that's fun. Did you see the Reddit post? I was like, yeah, I get excited every time they mention books. And it's like, yay, Bob for mentioning Dungeon Crawler Carl. Yay, Wade for reading Anmorph. Mark, you're there, I guess.

• 14:19Speaker 06

  And I'm like, I write books all the time. What the fuck? I'm talking about, what the fuck? Oh, come on. I was also excited about Dungeon Crawler Carl.

• 14:29Speaker 05

  Mark clearly doesn't read like the other two educated ones.

• 14:34Speaker 06

  Just because all I read is Warhammer 40k. I mean.

• 14:38Speaker 05

  Yeah, no, not, not the man on the same podcast who's bragged about reading what must be several hundred Warhammer books.

• 14:46Speaker 06

  Oh, my God, at least.

• 14:48Speaker 07

  Just, yeah, it's gotta be a lot.

• 14:49Speaker 05

  I think you've read more Warhammer books than I've read all books in the world.

• 14:55Speaker 06

  Probably have read so fucking many.

• 14:57Speaker 05

  I think that's probably true because I haven't, I've read mostly law, legal cases, if I'm honest. I don't know how to count those, but in terms of books, you're definitely kicking my ass.

• 15:08Speaker 06

  I mean, probably not with Worm or cause like there, there are only so many. I, I read a lot in my, I like reading. It's how I got such a, a big vocabulary.

• 15:20Speaker 05

  So I know so many words and use them for talking. You like my words, my out loud words?

• 15:31Speaker 06

  Yes, yes. I make them with my mouth.

• 15:34Speaker 05

  That's a good word.

• 15:36Speaker 06

  Mouth.

• 15:37Speaker 05

  Good job reading Wade. I'm glad someone here is finally reading a goddamn book.

• 15:41Speaker 06

  Yeah, me too. My last and final, which is the same word twice, update.

• 15:45Speaker 05

  I don't know how you read such a small amount, like this is not a judgy thing, cause I, I do that. But the first, where the first time I started reading Dungeon Crawler Carl, it was like, I was getting ready for bed. So it was like late at night, like maybe it was 11 o'clock. I was like, I'll read for a little bit and then I'll get tired and I'll go to sleep. And I fucking read possibly the entire book before I slept, but I read all the way through like easily three quarters of the book. Possibly the entire thing in one sitting. Cause I started and I just got into it and got into it and like, I, I'm like this and maybe you're not like this, the same way, but like I couldn't stop.

• 16:20Speaker 06

  No, I get that way.

• 16:21Speaker 05

  I literally, I read until like five in the morning and then I was like, ah shit, the baby wakes up in a couple hours. I guess I should pass out.

• 16:29Speaker 06

  Well, it's a lot less fun of a reason, but I've had trouble sleeping more than usual the last few weeks. I don't know if it's something actually going on or like many panic attacks or what it is, but like I'll lay down. And then all of a sudden, like, you know, if you like are sitting still for a while and then you get up and like you run up a flight of stairs or something, you feel even more out of breath. Like your heart's pounding more than usual. I've had a thing a few different nights, including night before last where I'll go to lay down and all of a sudden it's like, almost like my chest is burping or something, but like I'll start to feel like a weird sensation. And then all of a sudden it's like, oh man, as my heart like, whoa, what's my heart rate right now? Is it nine million over 500,000? Because it's it's pretty

• 17:07Speaker 06

  Why am I panicking? I'm fine. I just need to let's just focus on something else. Wade, you're dying. Oh, okay, I'm dying. I stopped thinking about just think about anything else. Can't think about anything else. Focus chest bound hard fast. That kept me up till eight in the morning two nights ago. So I was very tired last night. So I fell asleep easily because of that.

• 17:24Speaker 07

  I've had this exact same thing, not even exaggerating. It's like as soon as I lay down specifically, all of a sudden I can feel my heart. And I've had an Apple Watch when I was doing it back before they were sued out of their ability to do such things.

• 17:39Speaker 05

  It was only blood oxygen that they got sued about the the ECG thing is still works, but.

• 17:45Speaker 07

  Okay, cool. Well, I would do that and I would look at my heart rate and it would be like, it doesn't feel that crazy. And it was only reading ever like 105, 110, which is barely elevated. And it's like the EKG looked good as as much as I can read one of those. And it said I was fine. But yeah, no, I don't know what that's about. I lay down and then some nights it's just boom, boom. It's like, it's like someone's banging a drum in my chest. Boom, boom, boom. It doesn't hurt or anything. It's just kind of like, well, that's weird and concerning.

• 18:15Speaker 06

  Not fun. And I I've got, there's been a lot of things going on in life. I don't want to bring all of it up here, but I've had reasons to be like stressed about stuff. But like, at least on the conscious level, I feel like I'm okay. You know, I've had my moments. I've had moments of happiness. I've shed tears. I've dealt with some of the things that we're dealing with. Maybe it's my subconscious or I don't know, but the heart is just the one thing I it scares me probably the most. Because I've had some family history of like heart attacks and stuff. So I'm like, man, hope my heart's okay. So the heart pounding just really compounds. It becomes a vicious cycle of like, now I really can't calm myself down. So.

• 18:53Speaker 05

  Well, do you have an Apple Watch, Wade? Because I I don't know if it would help you, but I would recommend that.

• 18:57Speaker 06

  Yeah, I do. I haven't I haven't used it. I should probably use it again, but.

• 19:01Speaker 05

  For both of you, what you're describing sounds like a thing I'm familiar with. It sounds like atrial fibrillation, which is not necessarily even a thing that would manifest on an EKG. Especially on the Apple Watch because it's not exactly like a diodes all over your body type of one. But that is not necessarily a bad thing that can happen. But also, if you're concerned about it, the doctor can check it out pretty easily. They will give you like a full diodes all over your body. EKG, get the full readings like it's real easy.

• 19:34Speaker 06

  I think I'm going to, I think I'm gonna do that.

• 19:36Speaker 05

  If it is that, and I'm familiar with it, it feels fucking crazy. It kind of feels like you're like, oh, is this a heart attack? My left arm isn't numb, so it must not be a heart attack. Yeah. Yeah, no.

• 19:50Speaker 06

  So I would say two weeks ago, a week ago, last week sometime, I don't remember exactly how long ago. I had this happen like two nights in a row. I like went downstairs for a little bit, ate something, just kind of like changed my location, changed the way I was sitting and stuff. And it went away and went back upstairs, was fine, able to fall asleep. But for whatever reason, night before last, nothing I did could make that go away. And so from like 1:30 in the morning till a little after eight, just had that sensation. So I think I'm gonna have to call and go in and make sure there's nothing else going on. But I've never, I've never dealt with like extreme anxiety, except for like in specific scenarios. You know, some people just have anxiety. The closest I could relate is how people have described like panic attacks. It's felt like a mini panic attack almost, but like, I didn't think those lasted for hours. I guess I don't know. I never really experienced it.

• 20:35Speaker 05

  Yes, Mark is raising his hand.

• 20:37Speaker 07

  Teacher, teacher, I have your diagnosis. I've looked up online, I've put in all your symptoms. You have paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.

• 20:47Speaker 06

  That sounds like a lot of bad things grouped together like that.

• 20:50Speaker 07

  Yes, you don't want to be paroxysmal.

• 20:53Speaker 06

  Oh, good.

• 20:54Speaker 07

  You don't want to be supraventricular.

• 20:57Speaker 05

  Paroxysmal?

• 20:58Speaker 07

  Yeah, P A R O X Y S mall.

• 21:03Speaker 05

  Paroxys, wow, what a word.

• 21:05Speaker 07

  The heart's natural pacemaker and sinoatrial node generates electrical impulses that tell the heart to beat. But in a person with PSVT, you, the heart's steady rhythm undergoes sudden periodic paroxysmal.

• 21:20Speaker 05

  Oh, that's what I mean.

• 21:21Speaker 07

  Disruptions, an errant electrical signal from above. Of the ventricle, supraventricular overrides the sinoatrial node's normal signal and creates a series of very fast heartbeats, tachycardia. The vast majority of PSVTs are not life threatening, although in rare circumstances, they can be dangerous, which is why people who experience repeated bouts of a racing heart should tell their doctor. You practically already done that now.

• 21:43Speaker 06

  I guess so. I'm good. I don't need to go in now.

• 21:46Speaker 05

  Except for telling your doctor.

• 21:48Speaker 07

  Yeah, web doctor has been told.

• 21:50Speaker 05

  Oh, that's true. That's true. Internet, save him. I will also say the feeling like it's a panic attack thing. It can feel like, oh, I'm panicking. Oh, my heart is racing. But it can actually be an inverse connection. You can have like a physiologically induced feeling of like panic attack because what's happening to your heart is making your heart race and then that triggers a bunch of other stuff that that leads you. So it's not necessarily like, oh, I'm so anxious. It's making my heart race. It could literally be like, oh, I'm iron deficient or oh, like, oh, something else is happening. It's making my heart race. That is causing me to have these associated like emotional physiological reactions that feels like a panic attack

• 22:34Speaker 05

  or feels like anxiety or whatever. It's probably fine, but maybe ask your doctor and get it scanned. Maybe that will help. Maybe that will help you feel less worried about it at least.

• 22:45Speaker 00

  Coca-Cola. For the big, for the small, the short and the tall. Peacemakers, risk takers. For the optimists, pessimists. For long distance love. For introverts and extroverts. The thinkers and the doers. For old friends and new. Coca-Cola. For everyone. Pick up some Coca-Cola at a store near you.

• 23:14Speaker 06

  I'll go get checked out. There was a particular family event that occurred and then it happened shortly thereafter. So I figured it was probably like subconsciously stress induced, but maybe it's just coincidence. Either way, I should probably get it looked at, but it's been not fun.

• 23:29Speaker 05

  They'll tell you you're stupid and take your money. Don't worry about it.

• 23:32Speaker 07

  I'll tell you you're stupid and take less money.

• 23:34Speaker 05

  I'll tell you you're stupid for free.

• 23:36Speaker 06

  Am I in an ad? Can I pay you to tell you, you stupid? Is this guru and then whatever Mark's title was?

• 23:43Speaker 05

  Oh, stupid, are we?

• 23:46Speaker 06

  That's why, that's why I didn't read as much Dungeon Crawler Carl, because last night I was finally tired enough to sleep.

• 23:51Speaker 05

  I mean, that's fair, I guess, whatever. As the literate one of the podcast, I expect more from you, but.

• 23:57Speaker 07

  It, it could have been that the book was so exciting, you just couldn't, your body was just.

• 24:03Speaker 06

  I was only gonna read the first chapter, I ended up reading, I think, six. So like, I did read more than I anticipated, because I didn't want to put it down, but sometimes you get like, especially early, late in a book, it's impossible to stop, because like, just everything, the stakes are always so high, but like, early on, every now and then you reach a point in a book where you're like, okay, I really want to know what's next, but I feel like things are only gonna escalate, get harder, I've gotta stop here, or else I really won't be able to stop. And that's where I was with the book, I was like, okay, this is, I've gotten through the, the intro tutorial phase, now whatever happens, it's probably gonna get crazy, let's stop here.

• 24:34Speaker 07

  Dude, shit gets nuts, especially the later books, shit just gets nuts and more nuts, and then nuts-er, and somehow nuts-ier.

• 24:41Speaker 05

  Yeah, I, I can tell you that feeling of like, oh, I'm finally through the tutorial phase. You keep having that, and it's one of the things I like about the series, is I feel like there's a constant thing of like, okay, now we're through, like, the prologue, now we know what's happening, and then you'll read a few chapters and you're like, ah, fucking, no, this is still prologue, there's still, like, how is it getting crazy? Anyway, it's fun.

• 25:09Speaker 05

  You guys wanna play a game?

• 25:11Speaker 06

  Sure.

• 25:12Speaker 05

  It's easy.

• 25:13Speaker 07

  Yeah, I'll play an easy game.

• 25:14Speaker 05

  We've played it before.

• 25:15Speaker 07

  Oh, no, wait, no, hold on, hold on.

• 25:18Speaker 05

  No, no, no, no, no, listen, there's no questions, it's not like that, this is a different kind of easy game.

• 25:24Speaker 06

  Twenty easy, remember this paragraphs and recite it by memory.

• 25:28Speaker 05

  Ah, close.

• 25:29Speaker 06

  While singing and rhyming, oh god, no.

• 25:32Speaker 05

  Not, not that close.

• 25:33Speaker 06

  Oh, okay.

• 25:34Speaker 05

  Honestly, I had several titles written down, but I kinda wanna call this one, The Easy 3000. Do you guys remember when we played the game with the Oxford 3000? The words and the saying them backwards? Oh, yes. Yeah, yeah. Say, say, you see, see, that's not, that's just Spanish. Say, yes, backwards, yes, backwards. Say, say, say. Adios, bios, but backwards. Say, say, say, say. This is the easy 3000. How well do you guys remember that game? Pretty good. Remember the words that you had to say backwards during that game? Do we get points if we do?

• 26:16Speaker 05

  It was in October, so I'd be really fucking surprised if you did. Anyway, don't worry. You, you probably don't have to say most of them backwards. Cause I did come up with a new thing. Can we say them sideways instead of backward? That doesn't make sense. Say it sideways, say it sideways. No. Say a word, say any word sideways and I'll give you a point. Yeah, that's it, any, that's the word, any sideways. I got it, I got it, I got it. Each other.

• 26:45Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 26:48Speaker 05

  For the listeners, Mark just stood up and physically turned his head sideways. Ah, damn it. You know what? That's a point. I said what I said. Creative genius. This is kind of like a mix of a bunch of games. Cause that's all I do is look at what I've already done and try and find ways to rehash that. So it's kind of like the Oxford 3000. If you happen to remember those words, if anything sparks, maybe that will be helpful to you. The game that we're going to play today with this is not dissimilar to a game they used to play. Friendship? No. Okay. I think it was, I think it was. Yeah, well, and I'm allowed to lie to you. The game we're going to play today with the words. Yeah, okay, it was, it was, but I can tell you whose word it was.

• 27:33Speaker 05

  So there, if you're ruining stuff already. I told me to tell you.

• 27:38Speaker 08

  I did not. I was not. Not then. Not right then. The moment. Okay, I could get higher pitched too.

• 27:44Speaker 05

  Who's lines anyway? They used to think play a thing called direct director. Anyway, they would do a scene and then one, one of the cast members was a director and they'd come out and be like,

• 27:52Speaker 09

  Do it French.

• 27:54Speaker 05

  And this is kind of like that, but if you had to guess a word, there's going to be a word. You're the person giving the clues is going to be allowed to offer one word at a time as a direction. So it's kind of like hotter, colder, but if Mark has a word and Wade starts and Wade is like friendship. Mark can be like sciency or or Frencher or higher, whatever. You say any word you want. If you think it will help.

• 28:23Speaker 06

  And we have to say it like that, not more French.

• 28:26Speaker 05

  I mean, that's my idea. It's not, I'm not gonna like dock you points if you get creative with it. But the, the notion is it's like the direction, right? And they're always like, do it more like a noir film or whatever. Like the ideas for it to be kind of like that. You're supposed to give clues, but they have to be short and you can't just be like, the word is this, say this word. Like you will get in trouble if you do that. Anyway, every time I explain my game idea lately, the more I say about it, the more I'm like, man, this is stupid idea. Oh, I shouldn't have committed to this, but it's too late now. I'm going to flip a coin to see who goes first.

• 29:05Speaker 06

  Okay. And one of whoever goes first, they say a word and the other person has to guide them to the correct word by the Frencher type clues. That's it?

• 29:13Speaker 05

  Yes. Whoever goes first guesses any word that they want. And the other player has to give them direction, one word direction at a time to try and basically hot and cold their way toward the correct word. Lady is Wade, lion is Mark. It doesn't mean anything about who you are. That's just how I decided in the moment.

• 29:35Speaker 06

  Editors, make me a lion.

• 29:36Speaker 05

  Mark's a lion. Lion goes first.

• 29:39Speaker 06

  It hurts, it's painful. What are they doing to me?

• 29:44Speaker 05

  It's too bad I'm a bit of the cowardly lion. So Mark is guessing first. Wade, I'm gonna give you your first word to play with. Okay. That's not the piece. I just looked at my paper and saw a bunch of other words. It was like, what did I write down? Oh, no, no, that's a different word. So I'm not acting any of these, am I? Or? No, you're just guessing. You're trying to guess the word and Wade wants you to guess the word. So I start with a word and he'll guide me. If you, if it helps, these are all words from the Oxford 3000 list of words. That does not help. There's approximately 3,000 options that it has to be from. But Wade, I sent you a chat with your first word and Mark, when you're ready.

• 30:29Speaker 05

  Avalanche.

• 30:35Speaker 06

  Peopleier.

• 30:38Speaker 05

  Sure. Stampede. Oh, I like this already. This is gonna be fun for me.

• 30:45Speaker 06

  Antonymier.

• 30:48Speaker 05

  Standing room only.

• 30:52Speaker 06

  What word?

• 30:55Speaker 06

  You heard me. You heard me.

• 30:58Speaker 05

  It's hyphenated. Standing room only. Yeah. Standing room only.

• 31:03Speaker 06

  Peopleier. They get the same clue twice.

• 31:06Speaker 05

  If you think it will help, yeah. Theater.

• 31:10Speaker 06

  Individualer.

• 31:12Speaker 05

  Bathroom. Oh.

• 31:14Speaker 06

  Sphincter?

• 31:17Speaker 05

  No.

• 31:19Speaker 06

  You sure? You sure about that?

• 31:21Speaker 05

  No, Colin. That's wrong.

• 31:27Speaker 05

  I have no idea what you think that's gonna.

• 31:30Speaker 06

  I don't know, man.

• 31:31Speaker 05

  Your clue is sphincterier. Maybe it will help you. Maybe I'm wrong.

• 31:38Speaker 06

  Diarrhea?

• 31:39Speaker 05

  Muscleier.

• 31:41Speaker 06

  Butt.

• 31:43Speaker 05

  Ah.

• 31:47Speaker 06

  Arm, er. Arm, er. Army, army, er. Arm.

• 31:56Speaker 06

  I don't know, man, I'm panicking. I, I'm just, I'm going to, I'm gonna find a way to get here. Bodybuilder.

• 32:04Speaker 05

  Oh, interesting.

• 32:06Speaker 06

  Uh.

• 32:06Speaker 05

  Interesting.

• 32:07Speaker 06

  Um. Traits, er.

• 32:09Speaker 05

  It doesn't have to have the er on it.

• 32:11Speaker 06

  Oh, good.

• 32:12Speaker 05

  If it doesn't make sense, we could try, that's already not working. I accept that.

• 32:17Speaker 06

  Uh, traits. Ego. Different. The sphincter of the ego. Uh, rewind. Okay. The ego. Physical, er.

• 32:30Speaker 05

  Mogging.

• 32:33Speaker 06

  One second.

• 32:37Speaker 05

  Wait, it, well, actually, I don't know if I have an accurate definition.

• 32:48Speaker 06

  Is that? More, no. No, er.

• 32:53Speaker 05

  Ah, fuck, okay.

• 32:54Speaker 06

  So, physical of ego, uh. Weights? Uh. Purpose. Strength? Opposite.

• 33:04Speaker 05

  Weakness. No. Oh, my God, that's it.

• 33:12Speaker 06

  I knew I'd get us there, buddy. I got, I listened. Sphincter.

• 33:15Speaker 05

  Sphincter, er.

• 33:17Speaker 06

  Well, you said bathroom, and I was like, how do I get from bathroom to our body? It's a muscle, the sphincter's a muscle. You can have muscle weakness. Could you have sphincter weakness?

• 33:27Speaker 05

  You sure can. Yes, you can have sphincter weakness. That just doesn't, that doesn't make any sense.

• 33:36Speaker 06

  Well, I, I didn't know how to get there, man. Get a sphincter surgery, sphincter spasms. Listen, we could judge, but I did, I, I drove the car, like, he parked in the directions and he drove the car there.

• 33:47Speaker 05

  If, if, sitting in the backseat while the accelerator is stuck to the floor and just ending, ending up accidentally crashing in. To the correct answer, counts is driving the car.

• 33:59Speaker 07

  You drove it there, baby.

• 34:00Speaker 06

  I did. I'm gonna be so much worse at the other side of this.

• 34:04Speaker 07

  Have you ever seen that video, the rally car driver where the assistant's like, you have to listen to my calls. Left, left, sooner, tight left, left, right, turn right. It's very funny.

• 34:15Speaker 06

  I have not.

• 34:16Speaker 07

  I don't know which one's which here in that one, but that's what it felt like.

• 34:19Speaker 05

  Well, Mark, I now Wade, it's your turn to guess. And Mark, I'm gonna send you a word.

• 34:24Speaker 07

  Hmm, I'm ready.

• 34:26Speaker 05

  On your guess, Wade.

• 34:27Speaker 06

  Apple.

• 34:32Speaker 07

  Les Schmigle.

• 34:34Speaker 06

  Apple.

• 34:37Speaker 05

  The word is apple like Patrick Warburton. How did you get that? That's so specific.

• 34:44Speaker 06

  All right, let's let's Smiggle. Mountain.

• 34:48Speaker 07

  I see how this is gonna be difficult. All right. Okay. Opposite.

• 34:52Speaker 06

  Valley.

• 34:53Speaker 07

  Good. Good. Okay, I'm gonna talk to you like a director.

• 34:59Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah, you know how to do that. Where's your hat? Does your hat help?

• 35:02Speaker 06

  Uh, hat, hat.

• 35:08Speaker 06

  Damn.

• 35:10Speaker 06

  Not that hat.

• 35:11Speaker 07

  So we're at Valley, right? Okay. Lower.

• 35:15Speaker 05

  Crust.

• 35:16Speaker 07

  More ethereal.

• 35:17Speaker 06

  Hold on, I'm gonna look up ethereal.

• 35:23Speaker 05

  Those are just Wade endlessly Googling everything Mark says.

• 35:27Speaker 06

  I didn't know mog, Moga, whatever you said before.

• 35:30Speaker 05

  Mogging. We've talked about mogging.

• 35:33Speaker 06

  Lower than the valley, more ethereal.

• 35:35Speaker 07

  Or esoteric might be a better word for you. More esoteric.

• 35:39Speaker 05

  Now Wade's a philosopher, major. He knows what esoteric.

• 35:41Speaker 06

  I know esoteric. Of course I know esoteric. Uh, tunnels?

• 35:45Speaker 07

  Back up a step.

• 35:46Speaker 06

  Alley. Crust? Valley crust.

• 35:50Speaker 07

  Back up another step.

• 35:51Speaker 06

  Mountain.

• 35:53Speaker 07

  Oh, wait, fuck.

• 35:54Speaker 05

  Valley.

• 35:55Speaker 07

  Yeah.

• 35:57Speaker 07

  Yes, sir.

• 35:59Speaker 06

  All right.

• 36:00Speaker 07

  Yin and yang.

• 36:04Speaker 06

  I don't like that word. Forest?

• 36:06Speaker 07

  Back up step.

• 36:08Speaker 06

  Valley?

• 36:09Speaker 07

  One-er.

• 36:11Speaker 06

  Mountain.

• 36:13Speaker 07

  Forward.

• 36:14Speaker 06

  Crust.

• 36:15Speaker 07

  What? No.

• 36:18Speaker 06

  Valley, mountain valley crust, valley, valley.

• 36:25Speaker 06

  Stay valley.

• 36:27Speaker 07

  Now back up. Back. Just, just, just listen to me. I'm your director. Just listen to, listen to me. Don't listen to the rules. Listen, back.

• 36:38Speaker 07

  Valley.

• 36:44Speaker 05

  For the listeners who just scooted away from this microphone. Guess Mark, tell them to back up.

• 36:54Speaker 06

  I got you, boss.

• 36:55Speaker 07

  Trust, trust, trust, trust, trust, trust her, trust her. Back.

• 37:00Speaker 06

  Valley, back, back up, valley, back up.

• 37:03Speaker 07

  Uh huh.

• 37:04Speaker 06

  Mount, not mount.

• 37:07Speaker 06

  So back up.

• 37:08Speaker 07

  What? What do you mean? What do you mean not?

• 37:12Speaker 05

  I think he wants you to say mountain, buddy.

• 37:15Speaker 06

  I did. He said no before, mountain, mountain.

• 37:18Speaker 07

  No, you didn't. You said.

• 37:20Speaker 06

  Valley.

• 37:21Speaker 07

  And I said, good.

• 37:22Speaker 06

  Go back, just, please, please, mountain.

• 37:25Speaker 07

  Yeah, yeah.

• 37:27Speaker 06

  All right. Forward.

• 37:29Speaker 07

  Valley.

• 37:30Speaker 06

  Yes, okay. Back up.

• 37:32Speaker 07

  Mountain.

• 37:33Speaker 06

  Go down.

• 37:34Speaker 07

  Valley.

• 37:36Speaker 06

  Good. Now. Yin and yang.

• 37:39Speaker 05

  Mark, I see exactly what you're getting at. And I can tell you, I think we both know that's not gonna work here.

• 37:46Speaker 06

  Come on, it's my best chance. He can do it. He can do this.

• 37:50Speaker 05

  I'll, I'll give, I'll give Mark, I'll give Mark an assist, cuz I'm talking so much anyway. He's having you go backward and then forward.

• 37:57Speaker 06

  Yeah, I see that. The, the mountain, the valley, the mountain, the valley, they're, the yin and yang, they go together.

• 38:02Speaker 05

  Conceptualize it. We go from mountain to valley. From mountain to valley. Conceptualize it.

• 38:11Speaker 06

  Yeah, I'm just trying to figure out if it's an area in between, if it's the concept of the whole, whole.

• 38:20Speaker 06

  The yin and yang, they come together to form a whole, a whole circle. Our brains work very differently, I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right. All right, let's, uh, uh, uh. More differentiate her horror.

• 38:40Speaker 07

  Oh. I believe in you, Wade. Outon Valley, Mountain Valley, Yin Yang. Altitude?

• 38:54Speaker 07

  All right, let's shake it up. More.

• 38:59Speaker 07

  Negi- no, not.

• 39:08Speaker 07

  Oh no, he's already hitting you with the you. I got you. I got you. I got you. I got you. I got you. I'm scared. Try something different. Any, anything-er. Any, anything-er. Darkness. Love it. Beautiful. That's great. Is that my clue? No, I'm complimenting you. This is not your clue. Oh, thank you. Such a good choice. That's a great choice. He's not patronizing you. It's a good choice. It's just how Mark is. Okay. Luminer.

• 39:40Speaker 07

  Gray. Good. It's good. This is good. I don't know how I'm gonna get there. We're gonna get there. We gotta believe. There's genius in that gray. There's genius. It's not easy being on either side of this. I'm learning. Pot of gold-er.

• 39:59Speaker 07

  Okay, yeah. Uh huh. I'm trying to think like, wait here. Supernatural?

• 40:06Speaker 07

  Afterlife-er. Ghost? Let's back up. Let's back up. Mountain. Yeah, okay, good.

• 40:15Speaker 07

  All right, now go forward.

• 40:21Speaker 07

  Gray? Fuck. Whoa, whoa. I got you on the wrong track. Let's just, let's go back to what we were doing before, okay? I swear we can get there. Okay, how far back am I going? Mountain or like? Mountain. Just mountain? Mountain Valley. Right, okay, all right. So. I want to explain so badly, but I won't because I would betray it. Lower. Hell? Good, good. Very Yin Yang, very Yin Yang. Love that. Lower. Devil? Okay, you're getting it, right? You're getting it. You're getting it. Bottom-er.

• 40:56Speaker 07

  Cavern, cavern? Feel it. So I want you to feel that, feel that. Porcher.

• 41:04Speaker 06

  No. Oh, no. Oh, God. Okay. Where than hell? Uh, bottom? Hmm. Great. Great. Great. Great. Staying right there, but mixing it up.

• 41:21Speaker 06

  Rock bottom? Mix it up. Yeah. Oh, man. Uh, base? Conceptualizer.

• 41:30Speaker 05

  No, don't give up. You're right there. You're right there. You're right there.

• 41:33Speaker 06

  You're tickling it. I believe in you. Hell. Bottom. Bottom of hell. Base. Every word I'm thinking of takes us further away. Creation? Ah, wait. Yes. Architecture. Ruh. Architecture. Yeah. Architecturer. God?

• 41:51Speaker 06

  Building, rur. Are we naming specific buildings in hell? Because I don't know the answer to that. Get out of hell. Oh, get the fuck out of hell. Okay, I'm leaving hell. Leaving hell. Base. Foundation. Foundation's good. I like that. Foundation's good. Okay. All right. Houseier. Basement. Descriptionier. Those story with a pool and a nice fence. Good, but succinctier. Uh, the suburban. Oh, trendy or transier.

• 42:26Speaker 06

  Stuck, stucco. Taco! Stucco. Uh.

• 42:33Speaker 05

  Wade's not exactly up on his architecture trends, I guess.

• 42:39Speaker 06

  Frank Lloyd Wright. Huh. Well, that's okay. Okay. Frank Lloyd Wright. I'll take that. Opposite. Ruh. Opposite. Uh, skyscraper. No, no, no, no.

• 42:51Speaker 05

  Frank Lloyd Wright got a lot of cantilevered what you call it's and do hickies and it's got many, many details and things.

• 43:00Speaker 06

  Uh, modern. Okay. Yes. Yes. Oh, my God. Continuer. Uh, future. Uh. More. Or, uh, not more, but you know, continue your again. Or. What is, what's the term for like the simple, uh, empty bullshit?

• 43:22Speaker 06

  I don't know why it's so funny.

• 43:27Speaker 06

  What is the term for that?

• 43:30Speaker 06

  Oh, man. Oh, it's right there.

• 43:39Speaker 05

  Oh, man. Oh, it's just blacked out a little bit.

• 43:43Speaker 06

  Minimalist?

• 43:45Speaker 09

  Okay, okay. This is great. This is great. I mean,

• 43:50Speaker 06

  Minimal.

• 43:51Speaker 09

  I could count. I would love that, but.

• 43:53Speaker 06

  Minimalism. Oh, I'm really good at this. Abstractor. Abstractor?

• 43:59Speaker 09

  Oh, no. Oh, no.

• 44:01Speaker 06

  Oh, hold on, hold on. I'm feeling you. Ah, mountain. No, hold on. Abstractor then minimalism. Less conjugation. Min. Mini. What'd you say? Mini. Miniature. Ah, men.

• 44:19Speaker 06

  Miniature. Mini. Minimal. Minimi- minimize? Minimizing.

• 44:27Speaker 06

  Minimalists. Minim.

• 44:31Speaker 06

  Minimalizing. I don't know what you guys want from me. Am I that close? You're so, oh, my God, you have no idea. Minimum.

• 44:40Speaker 06

  Minimum?

• 44:44Speaker 06

  Minimum.

• 44:49Speaker 05

  I think the game here is, how many of these can you do before you just die?

• 44:56Speaker 06

  I would have never gone there from mountain and valley, yin and yang. I understand where you're going now, but I don't think I would have ever connected that.

• 45:05Speaker 09

  What's that architecture style where it's real plain?

• 45:12Speaker 05

  What's that word for that?

• 45:13Speaker 06

  Yeah, the sad thing is, is whenever we do some architecture, I thought of it. I was like, yeah, there's that one where you don't own like anything. It was real simple. I can't think what that's called. Let's move on to a different one. Frank Lloyd Wright.

• 45:26Speaker 07

  Oh, man.

• 45:28Speaker 06

  I just couldn't think of the word for it.

• 45:30Speaker 07

  That's fair. That's fair. That's fair. I was really, yeah, cuz I was like, okay, mountain, opposite valley. All right, let's start down feeling this positive, negative thing.

• 45:40Speaker 06

  Good job, buddy. You did good. You got me there.

• 45:43Speaker 07

  It's an easy game.

• 45:46Speaker 06

  Probably is if our brains work the same.

• 45:48Speaker 05

  It's why it's the easy 3000, man. All you have to do.

• 45:51Speaker 06

  All right, I'll get him to the next. I'll get him on the next one.

• 45:55Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah. Mark, you have to start it. That's right.

• 45:57Speaker 06

  I also need to look at the word. Okay.

• 45:59Speaker 05

  Any word you want, buddy.

• 46:00Speaker 06

  Does he have it? I got it. Pillow.

• 46:04Speaker 05

  I see one path here that is so easy. Please don't fumble this.

• 46:10Speaker 06

  I will. I will fumble this, but like in a way that I think is great.

• 46:14Speaker 05

  Okay, good.

• 46:15Speaker 06

  More face.

• 46:22Speaker 05

  Did I send you the right word? Hang on.

• 46:25Speaker 06

  You did. Just trust me. Trust me.

• 46:27Speaker 05

  I don't trust you. Continue.

• 46:29Speaker 06

  Face pillow. I don't want to give it away too much. Like, I feel like there's a word I could say that would really give it away.

• 46:34Speaker 05

  You're allowed to succeed quickly. It doesn't have to be painful. The joke is not that it has to be painful. It's that it is painful sometimes. It's allowed to be as easy as it seems. That's okay.

• 46:45Speaker 06

  Oh. Edibleer. Edibleer.

• 46:51Speaker 05

  I mean, fine.

• 46:52Speaker 06

  Marshmallow? Healthier. Macron? Healthier. More yogurt. More organic. Organic yogurt? More natural. Milk? More vegetation?

• 47:08Speaker 05

  Do you know words?

• 47:10Speaker 06

  Yeah, man. Cotton? More edible. Carrot.

• 47:14Speaker 05

  Oh, okay.

• 47:15Speaker 06

  Sweeter. Rhubarb. More tree.

• 47:21Speaker 06

  Fruit? More exact. Apple. Oh.

• 47:28Speaker 06

  What a great run. More face? More face? Cause pillow, he lay on the back of your head, you need to get to the face and then, then what goes in it? I don't know. I can't help the way my brain works.

• 47:43Speaker 05

  Wait, the word that you wanted for a thing that was edible, sweeter and more vegetation is called fruit. Word is fruit. You've gone pillow, fruitier. He might've just said apple. Cause the one, the top three fruit you guess is like apple, banana and strawberry.

• 48:04Speaker 06

  That's like cheating and we don't want that. I guess that's fair. I just thought, I thought fruit was just too big of a jump from pillow.

• 48:10Speaker 05

  See, this is the thing though. I'm like, it can be easier and Wade says, can it though?

• 48:16Speaker 06

  Yeah, I guess. Okay. I guess in my brain, like I'm trying to play off the word he used to like get there rather than just like, fuck whatever you said. It's a fruit like that. I don't know. That felt, I, I felt like I had to guide him from pillow more than just. And I appreciate that. I appreciate that. I do.

• 48:30Speaker 05

  I mean, you can do that.

• 48:32Speaker 06

  Okay. Well, we've been playing wrong. I think at least I have.

• 48:36Speaker 05

  Well, look, that's, this is the glory of these games that I make you guys play and don't ever let, force myself to participate in. You can play it however you want.

• 48:44Speaker 06

  Oh, just wait. Mark and I will remember one day and we'll make you play.

• 48:47Speaker 05

  Yeah, I doubt it.

• 48:49Speaker 06

  You're probably right. We'll, we'll think about remembering.

• 48:51Speaker 05

  Wade, guess a word.

• 48:53Speaker 06

  Oh, okay. Mark, you ready? Yeah.

• 48:55Speaker 05

  Car.

• 48:56Speaker 06

  Aliver.

• 48:58Speaker 05

  Giraffe.

• 48:59Speaker 06

  Shorter.

• 49:00Speaker 05

  Corgi.

• 49:01Speaker 06

  Bigger.

• 49:02Speaker 05

  Sheep.

• 49:03Speaker 06

  Bigger.

• 49:04Speaker 05

  Buffalo.

• 49:05Speaker 06

  Smaller. German shepherd. Actually I retract my smaller. For some reason I thought of a rhino when you said buffalo. Buffalo are pretty big. I don't know how, but I don't know how they compare size wise. More aggressive. I'm thinking of buffalo. Hippo. More aggressive.

• 49:22Speaker 05

  Lion?

• 49:24Speaker 06

  American ear.

• 49:26Speaker 05

  Bear.

• 49:29Speaker 07

  I knew I could tell you were stuck in Africa. I could tell you were just like in this savanna. Just.

• 49:35Speaker 06

  Except for sheep and corgi.

• 49:37Speaker 07

  Yeah, that's true.

• 49:39Speaker 06

  But if it's bigger than that, it's in Africa.

• 49:41Speaker 05

  I did intend to do another round, but I I don't know.

• 49:45Speaker 06

  Oh, we're so quick now. We're on a roll.

• 49:47Speaker 05

  Yeah, well, I sort of I didn't realize the one would be the longest round and then everything else would be so easy.

• 49:53Speaker 06

  It turns out getting me to minimal was a problem.

• 49:56Speaker 07

  Minimum.

• 49:58Speaker 06

  Fuck.

• 49:59Speaker 05

  Are you guys up for one more? Do you have the energy to do us another round?

• 50:02Speaker 07

  I could do another.

• 50:03Speaker 05

  Wade, I am sending you your word. Now you get to be on this side of one of these.

• 50:09Speaker 06

  No, no, don't.

• 50:10Speaker 05

  Have fun.

• 50:11Speaker 06

  Cloud. More manmade. Smog. More technological. Power plant. More personal. Home generator. More entertainment. TV. More screen. Theater? More resolution. VR? More ratio. More more ratio? Is that what you said? You sure?

• 50:35Speaker 07

  I did, I did.

• 50:37Speaker 06

  Okay, all right, you know, uh, camera. More viewing? Window? More display? Monitor? More options. Microscope. Uh oh. Bah bah. Ha ha. Mm hmm. Ha ha.

• 50:55Speaker 07

  That's that's more than one word.

• 50:57Speaker 06

  More monitor?

• 50:58Speaker 05

  Uh, I watched so desperately to help you, Wade. I could see I could see it.

• 51:03Speaker 06

  Display? More specific? LG 4K OLED display monitor. More 4K.

• 51:15Speaker 06

  8K? More specific. More options. I'm trying to think of words I've not used. I think I used both of those. IMAX? More changing. Uh. 235 widescreen.

• 51:33Speaker 06

  More.

• 51:34Speaker 07

  What the fuck?

• 51:36Speaker 06

  What do you mean more?

• 51:38Speaker 07

  More, okay, okay, okay, alright. Every, every film in display term I know. I'm just gonna start rattling them off, okay? Viewfinder.

• 51:48Speaker 06

  Did I say the same thing twice, Bob?

• 51:50Speaker 05

  Yeah, give the direction you want, man.

• 51:53Speaker 07

  More ratio.

• 51:54Speaker 06

  What do you mean more ratio? The one, how to get here, I don't know.

• 51:58Speaker 05

  Aside from the fact that it's not working, I think that's actually not a bad direction, Wade. And I'm gonna laugh at you either way, but I, I can see the vision.

• 52:07Speaker 06

  Our brains just work so different.

• 52:10Speaker 07

  Split screen.

• 52:11Speaker 06

  More 1080?

• 52:12Speaker 07

  High definition.

• 52:14Speaker 06

  More colon.

• 52:21Speaker 07

  More colon?

• 52:25Speaker 05

  Oh, fuck, that's so... How does that seem so stupid, but actually makes sense?

• 52:32Speaker 06

  I don't know.

• 52:33Speaker 05

  If you know, if you know the answer, but not in your tongue.

• 52:37Speaker 06

  I know, it's so hard.

• 52:39Speaker 07

  Okay, okay, okay, okay, I'm getting it. I got it.

• 52:44Speaker 05

  Uh huh.

• 52:45Speaker 07

  16 by 9?

• 52:47Speaker 06

  Uh, more term.

• 52:49Speaker 07

  1920 by 1080?

• 52:51Speaker 06

  Less number?

• 52:52Speaker 07

  4 by 3?

• 52:53Speaker 06

  Uh, more relationship.

• 52:59Speaker 07

  More.

• 53:01Speaker 07

  2560 by 1440.

• 53:03Speaker 06

  Alright, we're gonna try this a third time. More ratio.

• 53:07Speaker 05

  That'll do it, yeah, there you go. I'm getting right to it. Mark, use everything that you know about those things you were saying. Everything I know about those things I was saying. Especially some of the numbers. Some of the numbers. But maybe only the shorter numbers. Shorter numbers, okay, alright.

• 53:28Speaker 06

  One to one? More perspective?

• 53:33Speaker 05

  Oh, God, I feel like I have the one that will get in there. Just say what I'm thinking. Say the words I'm thinking, quick.

• 53:40Speaker 06

  I don't know what word you're thinking.

• 53:42Speaker 05

  Geek.

• 53:45Speaker 09

  Less specific or words?

• 53:49Speaker 00

  Coca-Cola. For the big, for the small, the short, and the tall. Peacemakers, risk takers. For the optimists, pessimists, for long distance love. For introverts and extroverts, the thinkers and the doers. For old friends and new. Coca-Cola, for everyone. Take out some Coca-Cola at a store near you.

• 54:27Speaker 09

  Is it in the room with me? Is it in my room?

• 54:31Speaker 06

  Less crazy.

• 54:36Speaker 06

  Is it in my room? I don't know if this is the kind of game where I can answer those kinds of questions.

• 54:41Speaker 05

  You know what, man? Just play, play the game however you want. I believe in you.

• 54:46Speaker 06

  I feel like I'm leading him to the wrong, uh, rewind. All right, rewinding. One to one. More general? Square. Different term. Aspect ratio.

• 54:59Speaker 06

  First word.

• 55:00Speaker 05

  Aspect.

• 55:01Speaker 06

  Aspect, yeah.

• 55:03Speaker 05

  It's aspect.

• 55:04Speaker 06

  I've been trying to get you to aspect for ratio for a long time. More ratio.

• 55:10Speaker 06

  More specific, more numbers? I thought that was a good clue. You were giving me ratios. I just couldn't get you to tell me that they were ratios. But you said more ratios. Oh, I gave you more ratios. I know. How else do I tell you? What's the term to get you just to tell me the term? More ratios? Well, Bob, what was the word you had in mind?

• 55:32Speaker 05

  When he was like sixteen by nine, four by three, one to one, I would have been like, the more word. And he might have said square, but that was where you had to work from. Take him directly from the aspect ratios he's listing. Cause you kept pushing him to be like more ratios and then he kept going from aspect ratios to resolutions.

• 55:54Speaker 06

  Whoa, I'm gonna stop you there. I said more ratio. There was never a plural.

• 55:57Speaker 05

  Whatever, whatever. Once he got away from the ratios, then you were like, describe it. And he was like, the shapes, the, the resolute. You needed to catch him on the ratios and then be like, that but words.

• 56:10Speaker 06

  Aspect is just such a hard word to get someone to. That, that is a tough one. Yeah, that I can see why that's tough. Whenever you were listing off like all the aspect ratios, I was like, we just need to get from specific to general. I get it. I get it. I see. I see. Yeah, I don't, that's, that was tough. That was tough.

• 56:29Speaker 05

  I always sort of forget to keep in mind that I designed these games to be fun for me because that's my main motivation. But I don't want you guys to kill each other. And I feel like I'm creating a tension.

• 56:41Speaker 06

  I don't feel any kind of tension. I more so feel like I'm failing to describe accurately. I'm like, we're right there. I just don't know how to, I don't know how to slide him sideways. I've been, listen, we, Mark and I have been on both sides of this. We understand the hard parts of describing and guessing. Okay, he's given me my word. Oh, okay. I think we can get this. All right.

• 57:02Speaker 06

  Pizza. More location. Restaurant. More vague. City. More vague. I wish my brain was functional so I could think of the term I'm trying to think. I'm just gonna say country. That's not what I'm hoping to go for. More vague. Land. Careless. Place. Careless. There. Careless. Somewhere. More options. Someplace? More options. Wherever?

• 57:32Speaker 05

  Whoa.

• 57:35Speaker 06

  Holy shit, man. Oh my God. I don't know how, but like that, I was with you. I don't know. I don't know.

• 57:42Speaker 05

  You guys just locked in so hard on that one.

• 57:45Speaker 06

  That was great. That was great.

• 57:48Speaker 05

  I think Mark has had to give clues about 10% as much of the time as he has had to be guessing. You got bear and wherever so fast.

• 58:02Speaker 07

  I was just saying, you know. I think you gave us an easy one with bear and apple, but you know, minimum and wherever are such out there concepts.

• 58:10Speaker 06

  What were the ones I had? I've had.

• 58:12Speaker 05

  You had weakness, apple and aspect.

• 58:15Speaker 07

  Sphincter weakness.

• 58:17Speaker 06

  Weakness and aspect are, those are tough to get to.

• 58:19Speaker 07

  Those are tough. Yeah.

• 58:20Speaker 05

  Mark had minimum and wherever, which I feel like I thought would be comparably tough.

• 58:27Speaker 06

  To be honest, I don't know how we got to wherever. I just didn't, I ran out of terms. I was like, what else?

• 58:31Speaker 05

  See, that was a strategy I thought was gonna happen a lot more. Mark got you headed with some momentum and then he was just like careless, even less, less care. And that like drove you so far in the right direction that he got you. It just made a lot of progress really quickly.

• 58:47Speaker 06

  I can't deny I was, I was out there and I was like, I can't care too much more. He told me to care less and I'm not gonna lie, you both lighting up at somewhere had me thinking some or where we're part of the word.

• 58:58Speaker 07

  It was amazing. It was.

• 59:00Speaker 06

  You guys look like the sloth in that one was Zootopia where he was like slowly smiling.

• 59:04Speaker 05

  I hope other people than me enjoy that, but I love, that was a good time.

• 59:08Speaker 06

  Oh, I'm sure they, I'm sure they will.

• 59:11Speaker 05

  Wade, you earned points for. What happened? Tossing out a short joke, which we'll see if that comes back to bite you. See if your body can take it about Mark not taking care of himself when he probably almost died from a fever. You're a weiner man, sphincter-er. You got a point for weakness, apple and aspect, but you also got points during the gameplay for, oh, what's that architecture style where you, there's nothing and it's.

• 59:40Speaker 06

  I was like, what are the odds that's the word? I just can't think of.

• 59:44Speaker 05

  And also you got points for more face, more ratio, which gives you a total of 10 points. But one of those is a short point, so we'll see what happens with that. Mark, you earned points for super syringe, cooking yourself in the heatwave. You survived, which is impressive. You're an illiterate loser because Wade and I both read books. You said a word sideways, which I didn't think was possible. You also got points for minimum bear and wherever. And I gave you a point for, let's go back a step, take it back a step. Forward.

• 1:00:19Speaker 06

  Good, good, good.

• 1:00:21Speaker 05

  That gives Mark a total of nine points off the rip, which I gotta be honest, I felt like I was giving Mark more points, but I think it was just more painful to give Wade points because most of his were from.

• 1:00:33Speaker 06

  Thank you.

• 1:00:34Speaker 05

  I was laughing. I was laughing so much that it hurt and also my brain hurt. Anyway, let's see how many bonus spins we have today.

• 1:00:41Speaker 06

  I always get to feel so good about my success on this show.

• 1:00:44Speaker 05

  Two spinnerinos. Well, that couldn't possibly be bad for me.

• 1:00:48Speaker 06

  Couldn't be. No way.

• 1:00:50Speaker 05

  I am going to add coolest illness since last episode.

• 1:00:57Speaker 06

  Who are you gonna give it to? Mark's crazy fever or my crazy heart?

• 1:01:01Speaker 05

  It's probably the fever this time. Almost dying is pretty cool.

• 1:01:04Speaker 06

  We'll see if I make it back for next week. Otherwise I hope I get that point.

• 1:01:08Speaker 05

  Hey, if you actually die, I feel like that point's yours by default for the rest of eternity. So.

• 1:01:12Speaker 06

  That makes sense. Too bad, Bob. You can't die. You're immortal.

• 1:01:16Speaker 05

  I know. I put a point on the board. I'll never get. Unbelievable. Spin number one of two. And the words are so small, I can't really tell what it's gonna be. Nevermind. Will to live.

• 1:01:30Speaker 05

  I mean, I can't tell if Mark surviving a very serious illness is a demonstration of his will to live, or the fact that you did not seek out any medical attention, or even take your temperature when you were thought you had a severe fever is a demonstration of your lack of will to live.

• 1:01:45Speaker 06

  I would have. I would have. Really feel like we're just writing off my heart issues here, but yeah, that's fair.

• 1:01:50Speaker 05

  I don't think there's a question of your will to live, though. You clearly you wanted to live. You were concerned about living. If Mark's thing was a demonstration of his will to live, I think he survived a potentially more serious situation and had more will to live. I don't know. That feels like a stretch. If that's too close, we can spin again, but I feel like.

• 1:02:10Speaker 06

  You're the judge.

• 1:02:11Speaker 05

  My heart wants to give it to Mark because I'm heavily biased towards him.

• 1:02:14Speaker 06

  Hey, is that an insult to me? Cause you said your heart?

• 1:02:17Speaker 05

  Yeah. Take that.

• 1:02:18Speaker 06

  Okay. I mean, that just ties us up. So honestly, that makes it worse for you in the long run. I'll take it.

• 1:02:23Speaker 05

  Nothing bad can happen. There's still another spin. Someone has to get a point. It certainly won't be me or the listeners or viewers.

• 1:02:32Speaker 05

  Amy has a point potentially up here or something.

• 1:02:35Speaker 06

  What about minus seven percent to one man show?

• 1:02:37Speaker 05

  Let's not do that.

• 1:02:41Speaker 05

  Huh? Oh. Oh shit.

• 1:02:44Speaker 06

  None of us lied, though.

• 1:02:45Speaker 05

  A short joke point is not a lie point, is it?

• 1:02:48Speaker 06

  No, it's a separate thing.

• 1:02:49Speaker 05

  Is this a re-spin or no point?

• 1:02:51Speaker 06

  Well, usually it's the judge's choice, but you know.

• 1:02:53Speaker 05

  Oh, I know which one I would prefer it to be. I can tell you that.

• 1:02:57Speaker 06

  Oh, Mark, hold on. Yeah, Mark, we want to talk about this so we could.

• 1:03:00Speaker 05

  It's only a 23% chance of a one man show right now. That's not that huge. Yeah, it's only basically a one in four almost.

• 1:03:10Speaker 06

  I mean, I would 100% re-spin if it were me.

• 1:03:12Speaker 05

  I'm gonna re-spin. I don't know. I was leaving my favor to you guys. I don't want to do that. It's the one that we totally fucking torture Mark.

• 1:03:20Speaker 06

  I think it's probably Mark today, isn't it?

• 1:03:22Speaker 05

  Oh, wait. Yeah, actually. Yeah, I think it's already a gimme. Actually, yeah, you you do kind of just blend into your.

• 1:03:29Speaker 06

  Well, but wait, distractible poster, blue.

• 1:03:33Speaker 05

  Ow, but by quantity, I think I think I think I've got this. Yeah, I think Mark has that. Actually, I don't think we. Oh, those are like totally identical. Those are totally identical.

• 1:03:41Speaker 06

  Yeah, it's definitely.

• 1:03:42Speaker 05

  Okay, well, point to Mark, which means Mark wins. Yay! The come the come from behind victory.

• 1:03:51Speaker 06

  He deserves it.

• 1:03:53Speaker 05

  Oh, I didn't even see you pull up the coin. I didn't recognize any of us saying that word we're not supposed to say unless we mean it during this episode, but I'm sure it happened.

• 1:04:01Speaker 06

  You should have made it one of the words we have to get to. That'd been really funny.

• 1:04:04Speaker 05

  Oh, that's a good idea. It's way funnier than anything I put in my game. I'll forget to do that when we do Oxford 3002. Uh, anyway, congratulations, Mark. Wade, would you like to give your loser speech?

• 1:04:19Speaker 06

  I want to say aspects and weakness, very difficult words, but you know, Mark and I got there. Minimum, and whatever the other words are I had to get to with Mark bear, and then that third one, tough. But we did it. We did it wherever. And I just, I'm proud of us for succeeding in a very difficult challenge with some really difficult words that have at least two syllables. So I leave today with my head held hung. I'm hung and high.

  You sure are, man. You sure are.

  Oh, I meant to throw this in before Mark, before your winner's speech, your glorious winner's speech. I did want to give the context of those were all words from the original Oxford 3000 video, but I switched whose words were whomst's. I think all the words that I had Mark guessing Wade previously had to guess and vice versa. So those were all words we had previously dealt with.

  Not a single one of those came back to mind at all as I saw them.

• 1:05:17Speaker 05

  Yeah, well, I thought on the long shot that one of you could remember. A free point for you because you deserve it. Mark, winner's speech.

• 1:05:25Speaker 07

  I am very happy to claim this win. More for myself and less for my opponent. Cause as the winner, I naturally would be happy for myself. And honestly, that's the natural order of things. As you can see, I read a lot of books and I know a lot of words and I use them sparingly, which is a word I read in a book. Thank you for the win.
