Ben’s Anime Tournament & The Green Knight - The Pro Crastinators Podcast, Episode 357
Watch on YouTubeVideo summary
In this episode of The Pro Crastinators Podcast, the hosts open by addressing their current financial struggles and personal challenges, with one host expressing feelings of inadequacy and depression regarding his inability to sustain a career as a comic artist. They pivot to reviewing various films, starting with *The Green Knight*, which they initially mistook for a Christmas movie but appreciate for its themes of courage and consequence despite some pacing issues. The discussion then moves to Aardman's *Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit*, where they recall the terrifying reveal that the dog is a robot, and they also touch upon their financial habits, including investments in I-Bonds to hedge against inflation and the search for money-saving loopholes as a hobbyist approach to finance.
The conversation expands to broader societal issues, debating Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter and controversies surrounding celebrities paying for verification without using the platform, while also speculating on whether Musk sabotages public infrastructure projects like California rail lines to profit from their decline. The hosts then delve into legal complexities regarding hate speech laws in Germany and false endorsement claims by deceased figures before shifting to personal anecdotes about getting severely ill over the weekend, which prevented them from working on a biscuit project. This leads into an extensive anime tournament bracket discussion where they admit missing entries like *Treasure Island* and *Excel Saga*, review the unique art style of *Golden Boy*, compare the endings of *Soul Eater* and *Tatami Galaxy*, and experiment with making homemade chewy candies that successfully avoid grittiness.
The podcast continues with a deep dive into the world of *One Piece*, analyzing Blackbeard as a cynical freedom-seeker, Law's defeat following Doc Q's temporary gender transformation, and theories about the location of the fourth Red Line Poneglyph near Fish-Man Island. The hosts discuss Kuzan joining Blackbeard's crew, the potential threat level of Akainu, and Chopper creating a "Soo Long Ball" to help Beppo survive the full moon without going hyper, while also noting the destruction of the Heart Pirates' submarine and the looming Buster Call on Egghead triggered by Vegapunk's information leak. They speculate on Law's fate with Shanks and Blackbeard, as well as whether Garp will survive his confrontation, before reviewing listener voicemails for their "Perfect Comic Party" segment which includes suggestions for static images over GIFs, a *Slime Rancher* comic adaptation, and merchandise featuring Ben Saint's new skull logo.
The episode concludes with the hosts reading a long comic submission from an artist named Drinking Moth about a character called Stat, deciding to invite them to contribute to their event, and showcasing fan art depicting Ben Saint and Give & Take alongside a poem generated by ChatGPT in his persona. They address a Patreon backlog, clarifying that certain voicemails were excluded not due to censorship but because they were intended as bonus content for paid supporters, promising to release two additional edited episodes soon. The hosts wrap up by mentioning plans to finish a "bees could pay" project, work on a comic party, and sign off with a humorous segment on how to pronounce the name Ben Saint before heading to bed for the next episode.

um
welcome to the Pro Crystal
uh we will just got to go all in we've
got to go all in on the perfect comic
party it's the only way it's the it's
the only way the people don't want the
people don't want podcasts anymore
they've grown Beyond podcasts I mean I'm
not yeah I don't care about all that
podcast stuff I'm sad this month go on
I'm sad and depressed spend I've been
feeling real bad yeah cool cool oh it's
so cool you want to hear about it yeah
yeah that's gonna be great content no
I mean
I would love to hear about it if you'd
like to discuss uh well all right the
the annoying part is that it's
it's a feeling that's
hard to
explain how long have you how long have
you been feeling this way again oh just
this week or
um last few weeks I I don't really know
okay
um I'll list off some basic notes uh
lack of uh confidence that anything will
work out
um with anything that I'm doing uh
increasing pressure to get some [ __ ]
together so that yo the bad things will
not happen even though I know they will
yeah
um and a a horrific
uh feeling of nobody understanding me
and being never being able to express
how I feel ever
that's how I've been going
you know
well no you know what I don't want to
make it about me
um but uh I get I get okay I mean I
understand all those
those all makes those all make sense
it's uh I put something somewhere
I put a little
oh yeah I wrote it down
oh yeah I was feeling fat sad about
transients
transience transience the the things not
taking things being brief or fleeting
I'm sorry is that you were feeling sad
about the concept of transience in
general
well yeah I mean
everything's got to stop at some point
yeah you know you know I mean I agree
with you and I do get sad about it
sometimes it's just funny to hear you
express it it's so so casually oh yeah
yeah I'm just sad about transience just
what I said about transients well that's
the best thing but I agree but I agree
though but sure it is sad yes yeah I
mean
it's
most of my frustration is that I don't
know how to explain how I feel
and every time I try to come up with a
series of words or like a a thing to say
oh so what's wrong oh well
um and then it's like white noise like
how do I express white noise in my head
like uh
words and language just don't cut it
you have to feel it
um but it's also really stupid and
pointless to talk like that in front of
people with language who whom can only
understand words
um so I'm just sort of like
uh oh it's just like that book
um I have no 1984 and I must uh 1985
um or whatever
yeah yes it's not like that book at all
but he wrote that's why he wrote that
book I don't feel like I'm cursed so by
a robot or whatever uh
I'm cursed by the algorithm I
so I mean okay
what's what's got you feeling what's got
you feeling this way
um
I think it's just I don't I don't
feel like I'm capable of like
making it in a basic sense
like I can draw a little comic
and it just it takes a really long time
yeah and you know because you're always
going to compare yourself to other
people and you should try not to it's
like just just don't worry about it
don't worry about not being able to make
a living uh just you know try your best
and keep going and you know the best
work comes when you're not stressing out
I'm like okay so don't worry about
anything
how do you do that oh um I mean it's
impossible
oh like
[Music]
um
it's just has no there's no escape and I
don't think I'm cut out for life
I don't know what I'm doing here you
know uh uh
it's pretty heavy yeah
and yeah it is all-encompassing I mean I
get you
what are you gonna do about it
well it's two things I want to kill
myself too okay don't do that and uh
persist yeah I like persisting I'm
pretty good at that I've been practicing
my whole life yeah yeah and uh yeah I
mean
it's it's
not like on the the table or anything
but it is one of those like what killing
yourself yeah okay yeah good that's good
no it's not on the table yeah I don't
want to worry anyone
um but
it's it's just I don't feel like I can
make it I don't feel like I can do it
hmm no matter what it is it's just sort
of like uh
are you talking about
career wise Comics wise
uh Comics wise
career-wise
I don't know just life stuff
like
[Music]
um
uh transitioning that is
[Music]
um
I'm getting choked up getting all choked
up about it oh dear I shouldn't have
brought it up but that's not well that's
not good content no or hemorrhaging
viewers right now crying live no they'll
think I'm going for the pity vote
they'll think I'm crying for views Gotta
Keep Those Tears locked away
Ben's Ben's secretly wait no actually I

uh
uh uh uh give him the steal Christmas
I'm gonna steal Christmas gift
I'm gonna come down for Mount Crumpet
and steal all your all your Buzz
wonglers
Christmas
um you know what let's watch I've
watched today
uh my brother was here this is why the
PCP is later because my brother was
visiting right and I just want to hang
out with him yep
and uh
uh we watched a movie called The the
Christmas game which was a Christmas
game uh it was like a two hour long
movie and we realized that halfway
through that it was a two hour long like
Epic Fantasy
um folklore tale of uh one of the
Knights of the Round Table and King
Arthur and it's some sort of like
adaptation of a historical novel by an
anonymous writer
why would you watch the Christmas game
when it's April
I don't know some Henry put it on that's
so funny when I Googled the Christmas
game the first thing I find is a board
game wait it wasn't called the Christmas
game it was called the green night
I think oh wait how did you call it
wait wait yeah I've heard of the Green
Knight why'd you call it the Christmas
game because in the green night there is
a game called the Christmas game it's
Christmas day during the beginning and
this green night this big made of wood
sort of guy marches in to the throne
room of King Arthur's Court and he says
fight me buddy this is a Christmas game
choose one of your Knights and [ __ ] and
there's this this Clause uh not Santa
Claus
um in this little contract of this game
we're like
fight me and whatever damage you do to
me the person they have to try and Nick
me they have to try and cut me and hurt
me
and whatever damage you do
six months from now or oh no a year from
now six nights to the north I will be
waiting in a chapel and you must come to
receive the same mark
again
and so this kid
are like okay so why would you want to
hurt him if he's gonna if he says you'll
be hurt as well I know it was so stupid
because he's like this young boy he's
he's always [ __ ] but he doesn't have
any cool epic Tales you know he's in the
brothel and he doesn't have any stories
to tell the court or King Arthur King
Arthur's like come on boy got any cool
stories and he's like uh no all I do is
[ __ ]
and it's sort of like I I want to go on
an Epic Quest I guess I guess that would
be good to do that
um
and then
and uh yeah so he he has an opportunity
to go on an Epic Quest or to do
something cool he says I'll fight the
Green Knight but he like idiot like real
stupid he chops the knight's head off he
beheads him because the the Green Knight
just kneels back down and says hey why
don't you chop off my head presents his
neck that's a great idea and so he's
like didn't you didn't you listen to the
thing you'll have to get your head
chopped off just Nick his arm just get
give him a little cut on the knee like
what are you doing and he killed him but
he took his head up and he's like haha
I'm the Headless Horseman now and he
left and he ran away
okay so like a year later
that he just he just like oh
I guess I gotta go
oh I guess I gotta go and then he goes
and he just has like little escapades
little moments in between like on his
Adventure yeah thinking that you know
he'll have Courage by the end or he'll
be a knight worthy of King Arthur
and he just because I chopped the head
off a guy who let me do it yeah and and
yeah well no now he has to go and get
his head chopped off and he knows that
and I'm like why did you chop your his
head off then this is the part that I
don't get why would you do this the
claws didn't say kill me it says like
Nick me literally that's what he says
yeah
anyway he goes there and the film it
looks beautiful uh acting is all right
but it's like
so overly slow it's it does not need to
be two hours long and we we're getting
bored
it's obviously very thematically rich
and all the characters and the things
are like that you know there's lots to
delve into but we were just I couldn't
be bothered with that [ __ ] so we skipped
ahead I was um I remember that movie
came out and for some reason I thought
it was like an MCU
I thought I thought the Green Knight was
like a a you know a screen sentence some
some little-known Marvel hero they're
like oh they're making another they've
delved into the depths of they've oh you
know they got Moon Knight and who the
[ __ ] is that oh they got the Green
Knight okay sure that's what I thought
um but no I guess it was like a real
movie
uh yeah it's a real movie critics love
it apparently but um hey God it I didn't
have the patience it was just like every
scene
there would be scenes of him walking
and those scenes of Walking would just
go on for like 20 seconds longer than
they really needed to and he goes on a
lot of walking scenes in between scenes
where he's looking and then sometimes
he's looking and then he's scared and
it's like shut up
shut up just get to the part where you
go to the green night
and get your head chopped off
oh he gets his he gets his ax oh he gets
his green ax for sending the blow I'll
give you yeah you land the blow I'll
give you the green ax and it's a cool
looking ax like it makes moss and grass
appear around it just very slowly okay
like he puts the the ax away in a
treasure chest for a lab for later
because he doesn't want to use it he
doesn't care about it and then when he
goes to get his head chopped off the ax
has grown like moss inside the wooden
crate it's just there's Moss everywhere
but I don't think he even uses the
[ __ ] ax
it's just sort of he has it
we did Skip around so maybe I mean it's
pretty good I mean it's cool to have
cool to have even if you don't use it
yeah I gotta imagine I got a magic ax
yeah
all right he meets a fox and the fox is
like ah My Little Fox I'll teach you
something about yourself and he's like
[ __ ] off
yeah that's what I would probably say
I'll teach you something about yourself
you want to learn about the Friendship
[ __ ] off you dog uh yeah so I this is
not a review because we did Skip like
basically from the Midway point to the
end
and then we saw the moment where he's he
puts the thing and he's like all right
you can cut my head off now wait I'm not
ready
oh yeah when are you will you be ready
um give me a moment are you ready yeah
oh no I'm not ready
why did he go
it's I don't know some sort of parable
probably some sort of stories like oh
uh to be a great man is
uh uh to get your head chopped off to
get your head chopped off in this epic
way
I mean
yeah it's kind of ambiguous at the very
end whether or not it happens because
like he runs away right he runs away
and he comes back home and supposedly
like a happy moment but then things
happen he become King Arthur dies he
becomes the king because he's related by
like sister something
I don't know some some sort of reason
and uh he becomes a king and then his
kingdom crumbles because of war and he's
just kind of a [ __ ] King and he has a
bastard boy son and the son dies in war
and it's like oh all this [ __ ] this bad
stuff happens you should have got your
head chopped off then all that bad stuff
wouldn't have happened and that was a
Flash Forward he's he
premonitioned it and he was back there
and he was like oh
wait
I am ready
I won't run away like a coward and live
I will instead die
from a green guy and the green guy says
well done and Son Well done now off with
your head and then credits
I
see and I'm like I think it's supposed
to be ambiguous he could say off with
your head as in off with you
head of state
um
um but they don't show any death after
that so I guess the idea is
uh the moral of the story is
do things you promise you're gonna do
like get your head chopped off yeah
otherwise it's scary your land will be
cursed otherwise you'll be a little [ __ ]
King yeah and no no one wants that
you'll have like a green aura around
your kingdom the lighting will be kind
of green meaning bad oh green is bad
yeah Green is bad I learned that from
The Matrix I learned that from Slytherin
oh yeah
oh yeah funny how green is bad even
though green is a grass and cows eat
that and cows are nice I made I made a
tweet like that a long time ago that
like it's we should we should have known
Rowling was bad because she made the bad
guys green and the good guys red and
that's wrong
she's twit she's Twisted she's Twisted
in the mind
she shoots the um they shoot the um I I
got I got it messed up people criticized
me in the replies and I had to figure it
out it I thought that uh it was
Expelliarmus was red and uh the killing
curse Avada cadaver was green I was I
was kind of wrong I was half wrong
because okay
okay
I think it depends on like this what
you're looking at in the in the movie
maybe but in the book I think it's
usually not described it with any
particular visual Flair if there's like
one part where it says there's a red
Flash the Expelliarmus one part or no a
Scarlet flash but what I was thinking of
was the um the stunning curse uh um
uh oh it's the other one stupendo or uh
wait stupefy stupefy Stupify shoots the
red beam yeah Stupify remember that yeah
the the ministry of magic guys do that
all the time after a certain point they
just jump in unless they're like taser
yeah yeah that's that's their that's
their their laser that stops you but
doesn't kill you the bad guys use the
laser that kills you and it's green yeah
I mean in the games Expelliarmus has in
like no defined uh
visual flairish look sometimes it's like
a little like a Parry button
expelliarmuses like in the third game
it's like a parody you have to time
Snape uses it one time when in the book
when it's described as causing a Scarlet
Flash
uh there is um oh God no what was I
gonna say oh no it's over oh no it's
over
like Harry Potter Harry Potter
what a film what a book
what a tail yeah
um yeah so basically the Green Knight is
a long long film that's okay
rrr is very long RR is three hours but
it's awesome
a couple of a couple of people watched
RR after last episode and from what I
said they saw it was good so I thought I
was pretty happy about that
um
that's an aardman right yeah yeah I've
not seen that one
uh it's a very funny uh family friendly
I mean they're all family friendly but
this one the Sheep the TV show is like
for kids my mom is sort of like it's a
little it's a little simple but it's
nice it's fun and but the movie is
actually very funny so I was surprised
my mom did not like uh freaking uh was
it called Flushed Away
yeah she thought it was like too gross
there is well I don't know if there's no
there's not even poop there's nothing
there's just there's toilets and there's
slime like snails and stuff in the
sewers
that's that's probably as gross as it
gets I think I I know and I just don't
think it's that it's that gross not
nearly as gross as the opening of Shrek
uh uh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
I don't know I just didn't uh
didn't get that but I really I thought I
thought Flushed Away was really good
yeah Flushed Away I remember enjoying
that I haven't watched that in a long
time I watched like two or three years
ago
uh what was I gonna say oh
you know Sean the titular sheep uh yeah
I mean not really but
I guess
well I can assume some things about him
well what can you assume
I don't know that he's a sheep oh okay
um well if you've seen the other Wallace
and Gromit movies yeah well several of
them have you seen a close shave
that's the one with the dog that's a
robot and all the sheep and including
Sean
if the dog wait I'm thinking of the
I'm thinking of the wrong trousers I've
seen the wrong trousers is the one where
the trousers are incorrect and there's a
penguins and there's a penguin and a
diamond house and that's the penguin one
uh the close shave is the one where
Wallace falls in love with a lady at the
wool the knitting store she's got all
this wool
and
um there's this dog
um that provides her with the wool but
it's kind of a really weird Bully Dog
nasty dog Gromit hates him and Gromit
realizes that the dog's evil but nobody
believes him because the lady believes
the dog and Wallace believes the lady
and so Gromit is uh it's something
something happens uh but I there's sheep
right and it's actually the dog is evil
he's
a robot scary dog scary robot dog made
of robots yes
and showing the Sheep is a tiny face
um I think the thing was her dad was an
inventor and he
invented the dog to look after her but
it sort of goes too far I think
something something
I thought I'd seen all the Wallace and
grommets maybe I didn't see that one
because that doesn't sound familiar at
all that sounds uh that is probably that
is one of the my favorites I would say
I've seen the wrong trousers and I've
seen the first one where they go to the
moon the Grand Day Out I thought I'd
seen the third one too but like what
you're describing I have no recollection
of a of a dog made of robots I mean it's
it's a reveal at the end but like yeah
um oh yeah I guess this is what he looks
like
uh let me let me this is where his skin
has been torn off in the contraption and
you can see his robotness
and put a gif
wait a minute
yes yes I have seen this creature
it's nightmare fuel
I was so small when I saw this one
it's the scariest movie I've ever seen
I I agree and Gromit there's an amazing
like night Chase on the motorway where
Gromit tries to save the Sheep
on a motorbike Wallace and Gromit try to
save all the Sheep
and then there's another thing where
like Gromit gets a little
oh it's so [ __ ] cool he gets a little
airplane he gets a little airplane with
a porridge gun on the front oh the
porridge gun yeah I do definitely
remember that
once again it's so [ __ ] good it's
better than any other franchise better
than it's better than the Avengers oh
yeah Iron Man couldn't do [ __ ] [ __ ]
about against Wallace
my my dad uh really liked yeah I I my
dad really liked Wallace and Gromit and
um I uh once as a kid I accidentally
recorded Pokemon over our copy of uh of
the wrong trousers my dad was really
pissed at me
why do I have that same memory why do I
have that exact memory of the wrong
trousers being taped over and so we
couldn't watch the beginning of it
uh
uh I guess it's just one of those things
it's one of those things everyone got
everyone has to deal with it every
father has to deal with their child
taping over their copy of of the wrong
trousers
uh
um
well that's it for this week no see you
later
um what do I got my notes what I got my
notes for the week
oh man okay I bought some more I bought
some more government bonds
I I indulge in fiscal responsibility and
I purchased more I bonds and me and
Asteria asterios was like super stoked
to see me talking about eye Bonds on the
Twitter timeline he was like oh I bonds
I love I bonds I love Ivonne so much I
called my mom about them
cool man
uh gotta have a hobby huh fiscal
responsibility physical response I
prefer uh video games you know it's
actually you know it's actually a pretty
good hobby you know it's actually a
pretty good hobby because then you have
money because then you have money
afterwards after you get all done with
it
um
I know you said don't talk to me about
money but guess what idiot I'm gonna
um did I I think I've probably explained
what I bonds do before but maybe uh they
they you you you you you connect uh a a
robot that deals in currency to your eye
and then you can see the money
oh I could see this this computer I
could sell that for fifty dollars oh
this bottle of water I could sell that
for 50 cents
I'm just gonna zap it I'm gonna zap it
with my little VR gun turn it into
currency no an i bond is a Government
Bond whose uh inflation not inflation
rate who's uh um
what's the thing for when you put your
money in something interest its interest
rate is is fixed to inflation so last
year you know thanks to Biden thanks to
Brandon you know inflation was really
high so the I Bond return rate was an
unbelievable nine percent so I'm you
know a nine percent return on an
investment is like you could never get
that that doesn't even happen but this
was on a Government Bond which is like
one of the state one of the safest and
most stable uh uh you know the
Investments that a person can make so it
was like a no-brainer so I dumped as
much money as I could into I bonds and I
made and for six months I was getting
that sweet sweet nine percent return
um it's you know and then just the other
day at the end of April it was going to
be it was entering like a new
period or whatever so at this point the
interest rate is not nine percent
anymore now it's like it's like almost
seven percent which is still pretty good
like that's still pretty good so I
dumped some more money in there to get
that seven percent and then if it keeps
going down I probably won't continue to
to do I bonds but like for the time
being I'm putting as much money into I
bonds as I can and just letting it just
letting it get as much interest as I can
get out of it
because it's uh it's just you know nine
percent give yeah nine percent it's very
good considered from another perspective
it's not so much good
it's not so much like oh hell yeah I'm
gaining nine percent it's like if I
don't put money in there I'm losing nine
percent because inflation is devastating
nine percent of the money that I do have
so
you know either way you gotta do it but
uh you know conceived of the one way
it's like I got something conceived of
another way it's like I protected a
portion of my assets from an inevitable
devastation
so you know tomato tomato
[Laughter]
it's not that I feel bad about you doing
it so I feel I feel bad about me not
being good enough to do to do organizing
and physical responsibility this it's
never a bad time for fiscal
responsibility Gibbs it's never a bad
time but never a bad time
feel so pathetic
um
here here's he here's the thing I don't
know I guess maybe I'm just a wacky
weirdo or something I have I have
gotten to the point where I find like
discovering money loopholes like fun
I like I I don't know I find it like a
very like a gratifying thing to like
look into and learn about like I watch
um I watch I watched that the YouTuber
called Patrick Boyle who was like an
accountant or something I watched
Patrick Boyle and learn about like uh uh
you know the latest crypto scams or
whatever
and um
you know I was watching one of his
videos recently
and uh
it did occur to me
it did occur to me that like really for
for many from any rational
from any like rational
um person's point of view any rational
like like Financial investor like all
the stuff that I do oh and putting my
money in I bonds uh churning my credit
cards uh you know using using using
cashback programs and stuff all of that
is like in the at the end of the day
it's very marginal that's me like doing
scraping whatever strategies I can
together to mitigate the effects of you
know like the true
the true horror the true Devastation
that I face which is that I just don't
have just like a real job
like a a regular person just has a
regular job and a salary
and like it's that's just like a million
times more reasonable than every
everything everything else that I'm
doing so everything else that I do is
just to try and mitigate the effects of
me not doing that
uh and I can Pat myself on the back for
getting two percent cash back or
whatever all I want but um you know
uh
like it's it's good to do if you're in a
situation it is it's good it would be it
would be good to
I mean if I if I was making real money
then getting two percent cash back on
all my spending would be even better it
would be an even better thing to do
um
so it's good
but yeah I was I was listening to him I
was listening to Patrick Boyle and he
did one about he was talking about the
video was about
um investment strategies like
uh academic people that recommend versus
what like popular like authors and like
finfluencers recommend and how they
don't always recommend the same things
and just yeah the emphasis on the
emphasis on like planning for retirement
and on like trying to like hit a certain
like savings goal by a certain point in
retirement it's like wow
I haven't planned for that at all
I'm literally just happy to I'm I'm I'm
just happy to have paid my rent and not
have less money at the end of the year
than I did the year before that's
success to me yeah and that's and that's
bad
that's not good
but
anything else just seems
so hard like I would have to completely
upend my life
to do anything else
yeah when I get old I'm just gonna hurl
myself off a cliff
but I'm gonna make sure I'm live
streaming it
that's my life insurance you've never
seen content like this before
bounce sound oh no uh you know what give
I'll tell you this if it makes you feel
any better I wouldn't watch it I
wouldn't watch it I turned my eyes away
and say no I can't look okay
um yeah I don't know like things like
owning property having a pension in any
fashion oh God attention
doing like well uh being any amount of
success
uh having money at all
uh just doesn't make any sense doesn't
even register as a thing here's a here's
until I'm reminded about how I'm not
doing it I'm like oh yeah
I understand
I don't know I I get I guess it has
become sort of a hobby for me to look
into looking into uh how to
what's the word
yeah how does how to squeeze as much
value as I possibly can out of what
money I do have
um actually a stereos okay
a long time ago we had um
cheesy just made a funny comic
I'm going to like it I'm gonna I'm gonna
hit lot like on that tweet
um uh asterios recommended to me he
recommended to me a couple of like Bank
things he recommended me a couple
accounts that I could keep my money in
and that would earn like four percent or
like four point twenty five percent and
I was like Blown Away by that I was like
how can it be how can that it be that
high because when we had um Minerva
Minerva double cast remember is that her
name
is that her real name or does she have a
different name now whatever I forget I
remember double cust double we had
double cast on because she I guess is
like a CPA or something and she was
recommending I think I asked her about
like what I should invest and then she
recommended like a market linked oh [ __ ]
was it like a market linked mutual fund
or something like that
and um I never really looked into that
because I'm stupid
uh osterio said he had a couple of like
banks that offer like four percent and
like that's crazy because my my Bank of
America savings account which I've kept
my money in for my entire life
offers like 0.01 interests so nothing
um if I'd been man if I'd been earning
four percent I would have
that that would that would be
significant that would that's that's
that's a considerable amount of money
that I have basically thrown down the
drain
by using a Bank of America savings
account like a [ __ ] [ __ ] so uh you
know what the way I see it the way I see
it right it's like it's like
you
I can I can bemoan that like oh I should
have done that and then I would have
more money now like yeah true yeah true
but it's more it's more productive and a
little bit more uh uh what's the word um
encouraging to look at it like you're
you're in a boat you're in a boat and
you're and you the money that you have
is the wait you're you're either sinking
or you're floating and so if you manage
to like if you manage to patch a hole
you know if you're sinking now that's
bad but if you patch a hole you
shouldn't you shouldn't bemoan the water
that's that's come in already you patch
a hole and you stop the leak or whatever
it's like no no no don't don't get upset
about the lot of it leaked in already
just feel good that you patch the hole
you're doing better now you're you're on
it you're on it you've improved your
trajectory
um that's what I like to do I feel like
oh I can get I can get two percent cash
back instead of 1.5 bam I've improved my
trajectory because what that means now
is that I'll get like that's like uh
that's like an extra hundred dollars
it's like an extra hundred dollars I'll
get every year for the rest of my life
for doing nothing and then every time I
find a hack like that I feel like that's
an extra hundred dollars I'll get a year
every for the rest of my life well
that's a hundred dollars worth of work
that I don't have to worry about doing
ever again
uh uh that's why it's so gratifying when
I find a trick or a cheat or something
uh yeah this is how this is how it's I
make it fun for me I believe cheating
the system
imagine if I get a job imagine if I get
a job and then I get a salary and I'm
like oh maybe they'll pay me like two
ever twice a month I'm cheating this
system so bad I hacked it guys wait
until the people online hear about this
this incredible Life Hack That I Found
You Mean That Capital owners will just
will just pay you they'll just
compensate you for labor
holy [ __ ]
uh yeah
yeah
um
I think I've said this before I think I
think I should probably
I think I should probably look into
some form of real job
it may be maybe later this year after
after I do the after after I do the the
the Slime and Punishment Kickstarter and
maybe pump out one more lecture at that
point I think I might be like all right
time to start throwing my resume around
and see if I can't find a a real job
with benefits and you know I can still
do lectures in my spare time I can still
do the I could still do the perfect
comic party in my spare time
uh but yeah
like like Dental like dental insurance
for instance if I used to get like oh
yeah I'll get a job being a dentist I'll
just do that no no you know I could make
a pretty good dentist
I've I've put stuff on my teeth before
I've got a pretty good bedside manner
I got a good old set of chompers here I
got a pretty decent set of chompers I
could do I have a couple I mean I have a
couple cavities that need that need some
work what if that was how you get a
dentist job is you come in you show them
your how cool your teeth are how well
you've brushed them that you come in and
you're like here's my resume yeah I
graduated from Dental School uh I've
been you know interning at dental
college for years uh give me a job and
they're like hmm But I see from your
record that you haven't you haven't
lived the life you haven't had enough
cavities filled yet we're gonna have to
drill you
you have to be on the other side of the
drill before we'll we'll let you we'll
let you be on on our side so you know
open wide
[ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ]
we're gonna root canalia how can you how
can you how can we trust you to deliver
a root canal
if you can't if you can't take a root
canal
what about what dentist school would be
like there's probably like skulls all
over the place and it's like all right
now [ __ ] with this skull all right now
measure now measure the uh the relative
uh the width versus the height you know
determine determine its ethnicity
uh determine determine this skull's
ethnicity and it's likely IQ
uh go do I need to know that yeah uh uh
for this school you do here at uh here
at Hogwarts Dentistry
Hogwarts Dentistry they just go wibbity
wobbly Splash you've got no problems yes
and then it's done and then so in their
spare time they just do phrenology they
just uh they just could they just
compare uh various skulls wait stupid
most of them probably were no the
Hogwarts School would have a really bad
Dental wizard uh thing because it's
British oh yeah they would have a better
do they is there an American Wizarding
school yeah they mentioned that there is
and it's like it's like Native American
themed I think it's it's it's uh it's
how its houses are based on like the
Thunderbird and like Quetzalcoatl and
stuff
you know very very strange
I like the Thunderbird just like Zapdos
my favorite Pokemon oh American wait let
me go American
[Music]
psycho oh no close
ilvermorny yes it is called ugh God it's
called ilvermorny and its houses are
Thunderbird horned serpent Puck wedgie
and Wampus
JK you JK an idiot JK
were you were you were you high on
benzos
were you take were you were you dropping
benzos when you came up with this were
you on Quaaludes were you taken were you
taking that to that uh that Ivermectin
were you taking Ivermectin when you
heard it when you thought of ilvermorny
I think we've I think we've cracked the
case here oh it's in Massachusetts oh
it's in Mount Greylock in Massachusetts
is that a real mountain
it mounts
Gray
oh it is
wait how far is it from where I live uh
you're you're confirmed muggle you can't
see it you can't no that's not
that's not true I just didn't get my I
didn't get my letter by Thunderbird
um what's okay
why is it on Mount Greylock
why that mountain sounds cool it does
sound cool
Mount Greylock gray skull yes
let's see from from my house
oh wow
oh okay it's on like the Far West edge
of Massachusetts so it's it's a it's
about as far from me as anything in
Massachusetts can be but it's only a 40
oh no it's a 46 hour walk yeah la Mao
it's a two it's a two and a half hour
drive
it's not even bad it's not even bad
uh okay feels so [ __ ] big well now
well now I know
it's so crazy that you you have such a
huge country and so much of your
infrastructure is Road based when that's
so inefficient for such large distances
I I saw some
gas this is because you just have so
much gas but like La Mao this was this
was a while ago I saw someone tweet
about like it was like uh stop stop uh
stop stop comparing the US's like rail
infrastructure to like Europe's and it
was like
placed
and it like placed the like the us
against Europe and basically the point
of it was it visually suggested that
like the U.S has more open space and
therefore rail is more inefficient and
it's like literally the opposite is true
literally the more open space there is
the more necessary the more if the more
energy like High-Speed Rail saves like
that's the reason you build it is to
Traverse empty space efficiently you
build what you're doing with a rail is
You're Building like the most
frictionless possible Road
yeah you could ever have and you don't
even need to like worry about swerving
into a tree yeah
it's not like no guys obviously better
no guys no guys it's it's much more
efficient to have every in every
individual like person or pair of two
people or three people every every group
of like one person or more has to have
their own little vehicle that's powered
by itself and spend its own gas to
individually Traverse like 14 States
yeah it's it's just it just makes it
just makes sense
it's just more sensible
like um road trips on in principle seem
like a cool idea and they're often
romanticized
um and I get it like if you just want to
drive to a specific location or just
like a camp on the side of the road that
is something you can't do with a train
but like yeah I don't know maybe it
should be just for road trips if you I
mean if you want to like stop
it's like oh it's a [ __ ] million year
drive if you want to like stop all over
the place and see all kinds of things
then yeah a train will not let you do
that
uh uh or not not as easily
so yeah it's not it's not like I think
it's not like I think cars are just bad
but like yeah as it like
as an argument against trains like hey
guys but there's so much more space is
like the worst argument I've ever heard
um it's literally the opposite
of what you're of what you're trying to
say
um
they built trains all over China
and instead they were gonna you know
they were gonna they were gonna build
trains across California but then Elon
Musk said no no I'll build the hyperloop
no no I'll build the hyperloop
mix it up yes it's funny when I learned
that is that the reason there hasn't
been plans put in place is because Elon
convinced the governmental body or
something yeah like convinced enough
people to not invest in the rail network
because of what he was gonna do and then
he didn't do anything he just sort of
quietly abandoned the hyperloop it's not
doing anything anymore I mean it's he's
not talking about it I mean it exists
but it's like stupid oh yeah the fire
well
it was never said that that was the
final project but that is it it's the
the car tunnel that one car tunnel
wasn't that supposed to be some
different project like I'm gonna put a
tunnel under the ground
I I think that's separate from the
hyperloop which was going to be a
specific mode of Transport that may or
may not have been under the ground
uh man uh the I don't know maybe he has
so many like terrible ideas he's you
know he said he said 10 11 years ago he
said in 10 years he'd put a man on Mars
and now he's uh and now he's uh you know
exploded in Rockets now he's exploding
rockets and he's uh charging eight
dollars for
he's pretending that celebrities paid
eight dollars for Twitter
yeah that is odd I I assume you've seen
the drill stuff
some of it yeah some of it yeah
I didn't realize I had been unfollowed
from him somehow I guess something
happened and I didn't notice because I
was following him and I wasn't he's he
specifically soft blocked you he didn't
like you
but I got back I'm back and back better
than ever yes good
um but yeah for a little while there
he had a blue check mark applied to his
account despite not paying for it
by Twitter or
um
also Stephen King and and LeBron James
and apparently there's a bunch of people
with like more than a million Twitter
followers
people that had specifically said no I
won't pay for the blue check mark
Jason Alexander uh yeah
I think jacksepticeye
in a weird stupid attempt I think to
make it look like it's cool to have the
check mark yes
see guys it's not it's not just it's not
just a a weird crypto perverts and Elon
simps and uh and like mentally ill Mega
people it's not just them it's also
people you like like LeBron James and
Stephen King it's cool I promise uh such
a like a
if that was an Ela I'm pretty sure I
would have been an Elon idea like oh
we've got to think of something to to do
oh how about this and then all the
people that he didn't fire because
there's you know they suck up to him I
guess
um would be like oh yeah sure
and it's like so short-sighted he's no
like for such a future-minded you know
like aesthetically in the future like
Tech bro wizard
um he doesn't think very far ahead at
all for anything like he doesn't think
that oh as soon as these people realize
that they're they're subscribed to
Twitter blue with the check mark even
though they didn't want that uh they're
going to say something about it and then
it's going to be revealed very very
obviously that this is uh pathetic on
Twitter's part
I I mean I read a think piece the other
day
actually it was like a long it was like
a long Twitter thread but it was
essentially I think a think piece and it
was about uh
and it was about how elon's kind of like
with the trains in California
how like what the like I don't know the
thesis of this piece
was the pieces if you will was that like
Elon makes money by sabotaging public
works and then like positioning himself
to profit off of their destruction
and like that's what he did with uh you
know
uh by just by destroying plans for like
High-Speed Rail in California you know
he increased uh you know the market
value of like things like electric car
stuff and Tesla and all that uh and I
don't know I think this guy was kind of
suggesting that maybe he's doing the
same thing with Twitter like by
basically by destroying what was
basically
by deliberately destroying what was
basically the um the the Public Square
of the internet he positions himself to
potentially to potentially profit off it
but I don't know about that because he
literally owns it he literally owns it
himself and has personal stake in it so
I don't know if you can really argue
that he's going to profit off of buying
it
and then destroying it and then somehow
I know I I think he actually is just
just [ __ ] up I mean I'm sure that was
like part of the reason he made the joke
in the first place
is that that that's how he operates he
just thinks oh you know this this car
company this Tesla car company
uh you know they're making electric cars
what if I was the guy who was getting
you know I can I can have a piece of
that
um and PayPal or whatever like he's
always been the guy involved but not
really
important to a lot of these things that
he's like it rolled up in but Twitter
was a little different because he got
like he didn't want to buy it he got
legally obligated to buy it for
extremely large sum it's very and you
just try as much as he could
you couldn't get out of it and that is
the funniest I have seen reports
that there is
um I don't know I've seen I I keep I
keep hearing about all these like
lawsuits that are potentially being
incurred like elon's Twitter is
potentially incurring and I just and I
just hope every time I see one I'm like
I hope this is real
hope this is really happening
uh uh uh I heard that like you know a
bunch of like hate speech laws in
Germany because you know Germany really
doesn't like Nazi stuff so like the fact
that elon's Twitter is like so
permissive of Nazi stuff it's like
pretty has incurred a bunch of like
lawsuits from like the German government
apparently uh
uh that was another one I understood I'm
sure there's more than that I don't
remember
um oh the the the thing with the thing
with pretending celebrities bought the
check mark is a thing called like false
false endorsement or or
something like that so like that's
that's potentially uh like illegal
which I I hope he goes to jail I don't
know I mean he won't go to jail I mean
as long as the threat's there and
there's like a credible
uh like potential that somebody could
actually file for something because if
there's a bunch of celebrities they
probably have lawyers some of them will
probably want to follow that up
um yeah um and there's a lot of
uh like deceased celebrities who still
have Twitter account oh yeah I've been
given the check mark oh that's so cool
like Chadwick Boseman yeah Norm
Macdonald I saw a tweet posting them I'm
like oh yeah yeah there are States
they're not gonna be happy about that oh
oh that's awesome that rules
uh I say Estates but you know yeah
whoever is involved family
anyone hey hang on I need fans at least
I need it I need a sparkling water I
never needed a sparkling water more than
I need one right
um okay I'm back
um so
what else
what else do I have on my list
um
oh yeah speaking of being deceased
uh I was I got I got really sick
yesterday
like all of a sudden
I was
also I hope was there any more uh not
not to change the subject if you wanted
to say any more about Elon nah I don't
like him that's I don't want to talk
about that boy that little rascal that
little baby that little bell diaper man
um yeah so I got super sick like Friday
night
and then I woke up in like the wee hours
of Saturday
like
how detailed should I be uh uh well I
don't know I was I had a I had vomiting
and diarrhea uh and I was shivering
and I was feverish and I was
alternatingly hot and cold and I it was
like really hot in my room I turned my
heater up really hot because I was
shivering but then I I would get in my
bed and I would cover myself in blankets
then I was like like pouring sweat
so that sounds like food poisoning and
or flu you I thought you think it might
have been food poisoning I think that
can happen with food poisoning diarrhea
involved I thought it might have been
that I ate something bad but like I
didn't
I didn't
well
well there was that one time I was
dumpster diving for scraps I didn't eat
anything that weird except I mean I was
[Music]
um
I was I was making uh I was doing
licorice stuff I was trying to create
licorice but there's nothing but there's
nothing that weird in it like it's you
made you made some [ __ ] up licorice I
don't think I did there's nothing that
weird in it it's just and I had done it
before with all the same ingredients and
I had been fine
so I don't know why I would get food
poisoning this time I mean it's just
it's corn syrup molasses uh uh uh starch
flour
there was a lot you know food coloring I
mean it could just be flu might have
just been the flu it was um
I'm I'm pretty much fine now I'm like
I'm still kind of like
feeling like weirdly sweaty about it but
other than that I like I'm not I don't
feel that feverish anymore
it was just all all Saturday all
Saturday I was just um in bed I just
could not get up just like just just
don't get up just don't get up just try
to sleep
this is it was exactly like when I had
coveted only covet lasted like three or
four days and this was just like one day
um yeah I I I I I uh
shh yeah so you know I had wanted
I had wanted to get more biscuit pades
done I thought I was gonna do it on
Saturday Saturday was like it was like
okay I'm behind
it's I'm gonna do it also and then I got
sick and I wasted my whole day and I
couldn't do a damn thing I did get some
more done I got a couple more pages done
I'm on page 13 now I wouldn't count
being sick because wasted day well if
you you had to recover somehow well it's
wasted in that I didn't get to use it
for what I wanted to sure
um but you know I did I did get some
pages done I was going into Saturday
Friday night I was like tomorrow
tomorrow I'm gonna get I'm gonna spend
the whole day I'm gonna get at least
three more done I didn't get it oh well
uh
but yeah I have I did I did do more this
week so
I don't feel too bad
uh I'm
getting
I'm nearing I'm nearing
a point of being like okay that's the
chapter done don't know exactly when I'm
gonna
I don't know exactly what I don't know
exactly what moment I'm gonna end the
the chapter on some some like my minor
Cliffhanger probably
I don't know
um but anyway yeah being sick was bad
felt very bad didn't like it
um
I I'm trying to think if there's
anything
there's there's nothing that weird in
the licorice
I mean probably wouldn't be a licorice
if it's like if you have all the
ingredients and none of them will rancid
or anything it's just fine it was all
it's it's all it's all the same it's all
the same stuff it's all the same stuff
that I do that I make candy out of
yeah any any other time you probably
just go to like a covid mini
maybe I mean I oh
okay I did eat a very over I mean I ate
a very over ripe banana
but it wasn't like rotten or moldy it
was just like brown and mushy
I put it in a pudding yeah I doubt a
banana would have that
usually I mean food poisoning is like
raw meat usually isn't it
meat that's not cooked well enough
chicken often
I mean like some sort of I cook all my
meat
give I swear I cook all my meat
uh well I do I mean I eat ooh I mean I
put bacon in my lentils but I cook it in
the rice cooker and I think that's fine
yeah I don't see as long as it looks
cooked afterwards I don't see why that
would be weird
Googling cooking bacon in rice cooker
I mean it's kind of boiling bacon isn't
it rather than basically basically yeah
so like boiled ham like you can do that
okay odd but like no no I'm seeing I'm
seeing recipes I'm seeing recipes
on Google that are like yeah make stuff
with bacon in rice cooker
so I should try that honestly I haven't
tried that yet it's it's
we got a little rice cooker
do you use it
for Rice yeah you know I haven't
actually used mine for rice
but uh so just lentils and okay yeah
yeah pretty much all I'll use it for is
lentils
I'm sure it would
you know what's you know what's really
good you know what's really good uh rice
spam and sesame oil
that's a that's insult that's a winning
combination
hmm
they used to have a half spam I had a
friend you have sesame oil
ah
love sesame so I had a friend in
California a little bottle I had a
friend in California who had a
girlfriend a Korean girlfriend who would
make
she would make basically like Sashimi
but it would be like rice and instead of
like fish or whatever
it would be a rice ball on top of a
slice of uh yeah spam cooked in sesame
oil and they were so good
um yeah
that makes me want to make that I I
don't even I don't even have rice
but I could get some yeah I just you
know I try to keep tricking my protein
up so I try to other than other than my
candy stuff which is all like pure corn
syrup La Mao I try to I try not to eat
anything that doesn't have protein in it
uh
uh now now I'm nervous now I'm nervous
that something something I ate made me
sick and it's gonna make me sick again
I mean other than like the ingredients
being
uh contaminated is the kitchen clean
yeah
the kitchen is cleanish and I mean I
haven't
seen any Rat pooped in it my mom told me
that when she was young she got food
poisoning from like rat poop or
something because like there were rats
living in her kitchen as well and she
had food poisoning due to them maybe I
got rat poop
but I haven't seen a rat have not seen a
rat in several weeks there's a cat
living here in the house now and I think
it scared the rats away and somebody
found like a rat Nest somewhere and got
rid of it so like the rat problem while
it would be overly optimistic to say
that it's over uh it's it's decreased
so you know I'd be surprised I'd be
surprised if it were rat related but I
guess
you can't you can't you can't
you can never be sure
what a life
um
um hey you know what I did
I did that I did the anime bracket
oh do you want to see me yeah yeah I did
my I've realized that I forgot a few
they're like ovas there was one about
like a cellist
in the woods and he has like a
hallucination slash little stories with
animals he's like the most bestest uh
cellist ever
um and I liked that but I forgot to put
it on the list I don't and I don't
really think of it as like a show
because it was like
I don't know it was a film I think well
films I wouldn't have put it on the list
yeah I wouldn't put it on list anyway
but then there was like
Treasure Island
an adaptation of Treasure Island that
was like oh the Russian one
no it was a Japanese wait have you have
you seen sorry to interrupt but have you
seen him uh have you seen the Russian
Treasure Island
I have my
takashima's Treasure Island
yeah 1978
and it's got
I remember really liking it I mean it's
Treasure Island so I know the story but
like
really cool animation
uh what's the Russian one wait no it's
not it's not Russian
ah [ __ ]
um maybe if I just look for weird
Treasure Island
[ __ ] up Treasure Island yeah there's
one where the the animation is just
so bizarre uh uh oh no
uh oh it's called Treasure Planet
from 1982
obviously different from the Disney one
I guess yes
but it's but it's funny that it's funny
that there was another adaptation of
Treasure Island called Treasure Planet
much earlier uh
I'll just show you some screenshots
treasure
Planet 1982
there's like a sakuga in this show the
Treasure Island in 1978.
I just want to find I just want to find
a good gift
it's got the ah the little leopard
leopard cub
here we go
anyway that would be high up on the list
oh look at that
wait what's this oh this is Treasure
Treasure Island yeah this is pretty cute
he's not uh oh it's so it's okay I'll
just post the link it's so much better
in motion
yeah I thought it was a wheelchair what
was
yeah this is a real movie I've watched
this movie
if you if you if you remember if you
remember
um
what was that [ __ ] show that I did
if you remember uh the flea pit if you
remember live at the flea pit I reviewed
this movie on that
and uh it's kind of it's pretty you know
it all it all it all looks like this
yeah is is the jerky motion of the arms
but like the face is like a single image
that they're obviously just shifting
around
like a cell there's you know moving
around making me feel like South Park
almost there's a
there's a there's lots of gifts and uh I
don't know I can't post I I could post
more but you get the idea
um but anyway
yeah do you want to look at my my list
here yes okay so mine let's go my
challenge list
um yeah I I I I actually have watched
like a lot of anime like I kind of
forgot
I've seen like like more than like 60 of
them
uh oh I was I was on my stream
and I I had to ask like stream people to
like recommend to like remind me about
uh anime that aired like at around a
certain time
of of my life and people just threw out
lots of suggestions and most of them I
was like no I never heard of it no never
heard of it no never heard of it but
then every so often I'd be like oh yeah
that one
like oh yeah Cromartie high oh yeah Big
O
yeah uh steel angel kurumi
uh paranoia agents
uh lupon that you know yeah oh my God
wow there's so many
yeah um
I kind of two kind of too many to like
go over
I felt bad for everything that had to go
up against fully Cooley like early on
like barackamon and garzi's wing and
Ultimate Survivor kaiji all get knocked
out really early even though those are
all really good
just because it's fully coolly fully
cooly did end up winning winning
uh unsurprisingly but in the second to
last round I did have fully [ __ ]
versus versus Gurren lagon oh my God
Magica I did watch that yeah I forgot
that one
whoops I
Golden Boy versus Madoka magic it was
really hard to I I kind of hated having
I hated knocking Golden Boy off
uh legend of the galactic heroes I've
heard of that I don't think I think I
tried to watch the first episode that of
the space one it's the space one that's
like 500 episodes long yeah and I've
watched half of it the a lot a lot of
the ones some of the shows on this list
I've only seen a little bit of
most of them I've seen at least
most of them I've watched all of a lot
of them I've just watched like a decent
amount of like Jojo part three I've seen
most of it I haven't seen all of it but
I counted it
um a couple of them a couple of them I'd
only seen a little bit of like steel
angel kurumi I think I watched like two
episodes of I don't remember what it's
about at all but I was like whatever
I'll just knock it off the list really
fast
did I put Death Note on mine I think I
did
I don't remember
there were uh yeah what the hell is
those who hunt elves those who hunt out
I don't know it's like some stupid like
fantasy
show about a group
it's like a weird etchy
like fantasy comedy about some
you know it's like a fantasy world where
they
they have to
they don't hunt the elves
I think what they what they do is they
have to find out who is an elf and who
is not an elf and it's straight up just
like to fi to see if you're an elf they
have to like look at their tits or
something and like so it's about it's
about it's about like stripping people
and like looking at them naked to see if
they're elves because elves have like a
magic tattoo or or some [ __ ] like that
intriguing yeah
yeah that one didn't uh I don't think
that one made it very far
no I was immediately defeated by killer
kill oh another another
one-sided match-up there
um
let's see let me look for some other
Minecraft no I don't think I've seen
enough of that to count it I like as a
manga Dio I haven't really seen nichijo
or that's yeah then as a manga dye are
like kind of similar people tell me
nietzschijo you should watch and I'm
like I've seen when when it was coming
out or around like earlier
I'm like oh I've seen gifs of that I've
seen when she suplexes a goat or
something
um I've seen like funny like oh it's
like a little cute girl but she's like
animated and over over-the-top fashion
to to deliver some sort of uh Punch or
something true and I'm like yeah I get
it I don't need to watch that I get it
that's the joke
it sure people people always say oh it's
so [ __ ] wacky and I'm like well is it
fun is it nice is it cute is it
wholesome is it anything other than
wacky and they never say anything
because I don't remember us to tell them
oh dear
that's not good you hate to see that I'm
sure it's fine
um
uh probably might be a pretty uh hot
take here but I had uh
I have um Excel Saga beats Lucky Star
in my first Saga in my first uh
I liked Lucky Star but I don't know it
was Excel Saga was I I like Lucky Star
fine Excel Saga is like a it's like a
parody anime
about like uh uh I don't know it's
God how do I even it's a comedy about
this these girls who join an evil
organization bent on world domination
and basically every episode is like
their stupid boss sends them on some
mission to like here's how we're gonna
oh it's like pinky in the brain like how
are we gonna take over the world this
time Pinky and every episode is like
they try to take over the world in a way
that parodies like some very specific
like anime genre
like they try to take over the world by
going to the beach and being the hottest
girls on the beach or they try to take
over the world by having a there's a
there's a post-apocalypse desert uh
where you have to ride motorcycles
around and do a Fist of the North Star
type stuff
etc etc
and it's just [ __ ] funny and wacky
and you know what it left a bigger
impression on me than Lucky Star did so
it wins
hmm
uh uh Chris Chan famously was a big
Excel Saga fan
uh oh
which gains a lot of points obviously
I noticed you have JoJo part three but
no other parts I have only I have not
seen any other parts
is Jojo Jojo seems to be one of those
anime where like different seasons of
the show are considered different things
yeah
so like you can say oh I love JoJo part
two but if you just say I love JoJo's
Bizarre Adventure
people will always ask a follow-up
questions like well which part
yeah I mean it's as opposed to like any
other show where it's like a
long-running show that has like art wait
actually now I'm I might be confused I
might not even be talking about three
I'm talking about the one that has um
josuke and uh shining diamonds that
might be four actually I might be I
might be on on weed
uh but yeah
I know I've heard of like what happens
in the early JoJo parts and it doesn't
even sound like remotely similar to what
happens in the later ones
so you know whatever
yeah what's Golden Boy
Golden Boy is okay it's been a long time
since I've seen Golden Boy it's an over
it's a six episode OVA about this guy
who like bikes around Japan
uh like taking odd jobs
in every episode every episode he meets
like a sexy girl who he who he goes all
like
um and and uh you know he just does like
he acts like a [ __ ] idiot and a fool
and stuff in pursuit of this lady and uh
I don't know he'll usually he'll like
take a job working for her company or
something trying to get trying to get
with her and uh it always ends with like
it always ends with like oh he he does
some he does some like incredible like
Grand gesture to like for her but then
he like loses hope that that she'll like
like him so she runs away in the middle
of the night and everybody's seen again
and then she's left like oh but he was
but he was like a secret genius though
even though he was such a [ __ ] [ __ ]
he was such a secret genius and oh I'm
in love with him now but I'll never see
him again
um
yeah I don't know that's that's Golden
Boy there's
there's a famous scene of him like
trying to swim
and he like can't swim hang on Golden
Boy
swimming
yeah here we go
yeah how's my swimming here we go
I'm gonna show you this video there's
nothing you can do to do about it
okay yeah I'm sorry
here you go
oh without you unavailable what
video is not available what
comments are turned off what okay uh are
you not seeing it no it's it's available
for me all right well let's try the
different but no it must be a a regional
thing okay okay this this one will work
this one this one will work definitely
I'm seeing it yeah okay I think I may
from that frame I think I may have seen
this depicted in a video
[Laughter]
he's dead
the sound effects the the voice acting
is so good did you uh did you get to the
oh yeah I think you've seen the end
so how do you like my swimming yeah how
would you like magic how do you like my
eyes yeah
um uh so so that's Golden Boy
uh
I thought it was really funny and uh I
like it
hell yeah
um
what else what else
um oh you're you're sort of roboting on
me no
let me close those tabs
um okay I'll also close those tabs oh
you're fine wow
it worked it was just just like that
um
I'm sure okay
beat witch hunter Robin but was defeated
by gur and Logan
yeah I I have um are there are there any
are there any on here that you recognize
that you like had forgotten about
uh other than I mean I recognize a lot I
recognize Zatch Bell but I think I was
reading the manga for that for a while
and I never watched the anime I never
finished it but I like Zatch Bill a lot
yeah little babies little babies and um
freaking uh Victory remember victorim
I don't know that I do the guy the guy
like the [ __ ] edgy dark baby no
that's um Victory is the guy he's the
one who's shaped like a V
and he sings the like song about like
he's like the ultimate badass uh Puppet
Man
but like the way that they defeat him is
they just they offer him some melon and
he's like is so happy to receive a gift
of melon that he like sings a song about
it and they defeat and he's defeated
oh yeah I don't think I got this far in
that's like that's like maybe like the
most I've ever laughed at an anime or
like it's it's up there it's in like top
10 anime moments
um
have you seen have you seen a Cromartie
High
is that the one with the
uh they're walking down the hallway okay
okay yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah we've
we've replicated that a radcon one or
two oh yeah but have you seen it though
no uh it's good it's very funny
um
yeah there's lots of things I've heard
about watched a couple episodes of on
chibi backers maybe
um oh wait I didn't include s cry Ed no
that show that I always say is kind of
good
damn it
uh
uh [ __ ] no I should put that in here
instead of Steel angel kurumi
um yeah the only one that I realized I
didn't put on the list here was Medica
Magica and I don't have a lot of like
I don't have a lot of like oh what you
thought this was better than that moment
like I don't have that yeah I guess if
you don't know most of these
um I was bummed that's that tatami
Galaxy got knocked out like immediately
and I felt a little weird like having
Soul Eater beat it ever seen Soul Eater
[Music]
bikers we watched three episodes I like
Soul pink I like Soul Eater a lot
uh I thought it was really good I
thought the ending was really the ending
is really [ __ ] it has a really shitty
ending it they kind of do the thing how
in like in the original Fullmetal
Alchemist anime they just completely
changed the ending to something else
because like the ant the manga was still
going they do that with soul eater but
instead of being cool like in Alpha
Metal Alchemist it's it sucks
um yeah I've heard lots of things about
solita's endings yeah it's just dumb
um but it's a good show and but I like
the Tommy Galaxy a lot too and I would
usually give the edge to a show that's
shorter like to Tommy Galaxy is like a
short OVA which basically makes it
automatically better in most cases but I
don't know
um what I remember most about the Tommy
Galaxy is just like its art style
and like the the plot itself I like
remember it but I don't remember it that
well I just I have a lot more like
oh yeah I remember with what when that
happened oh yeah remember that character
from Soul Eater so I had to give it to
solely there which is very strange yeah
oh yes this one I've seen clips of this
one a lot the tatami Galaxy oh yeah yeah
very it's a cool cool looking show cool
looking show
uh by the way I don't know if I
mentioned uh the last time I had with
with the um the list I hadn't finished
uttana and now I have oh
how was that revolutionary revolutionary
girl utna is
um something that immediately needs a
big long analysis video afterwards
because I don't get it you don't you're
not it's so [ __ ] thick with uh the
immunization themes but like insinuation
and metaphor rather than
over like direct dialogue
um simulation of
sex uh yes I mean there's literal sex
there's lots of it's it's not um
yeah I can't really speak on the themes
even though I watch some good videos
even Trixie's old video was good
[Music]
there was a comment under it it was like
oh I always thought this was like a
woman's perspective of utena and haha
turns out I was right LOL
pretty funny pretty drool yeah
but then there was another one another
two or three that I watched and I was
like okay I think I get it but I
couldn't recount it I couldn't like tell
you what uttana is about all I know is
uh I loved it it was great it's very
tragic and very Soulful and
um but like uplifting near the end like
that it's sort of like a it's a
cliffhanger like not a cliffhanger but
sort of like a
you don't really see what happens at the
very end but like if you follow the
themes and what you know the show is is
telling youth oh like on Direct like how
in the green night you don't actually
see him cut his head off
yes
yes like if you if you take what the
show is telling you non-directly you can
figure out basically what is what's
happened and you're like okay the movie
um
is apparently like a [ __ ] of
weird [ __ ] takes place in a parallel
version of the the show rather than
simple
uh like movie that is a retelling of the
show with a bit more animation
uh so I haven't watched that yet but I
want to
um and yeah I like using it a lot
it's very [ __ ] sick
I'm I'm eating I'm trying a new recipe
instead of a gummy I'm trying to make
like a chew like a starburst sort of
chew
and I'm trying to make a version of it
that does not like
melt you know it doesn't like deform
just from holding it
and um
I think it needs it needs something
neat it's it's kind of like it's kind of
like a Tootsie Roll
but you can't just like pack tootsie
rolls into a into a bag they all like
melt together they all stick together
they might need to be like coated in
something
mineral oil calcum powder talcum powder
maybe just like a cornstarch maybe just
simple a simple corn starch powder
yeah powdery something or other I might
do it
maybe maybe just like
a little bit of gelatin just a small
amount of gelatin just to kind of make
it hold its shape
that might be that might be like a
gelatin shellac
well I told you
that um shellac is the thing that they
put in Starburst right
no no you didn't yeah um I found this
out I was looking at Starburst
ingredients and one of the ingredients
is well it's called quote unquote
confectioners glaze
and what confectioners glaze is is
Shellac it's the stuff that they that
you coat wood with which if you didn't
know is an excretion of a certain insect
the lack bug excretes this goo that you
that you coat wood with and that they
that they put in Starburst but they
don't call it that because it sounds
gross in food in food they call it
confectioners glaze but it's the same
bug goo
well we've been eating bugs this whole
time
okay with it again I'm okay with it we
like Starburst are we thinking of the
same thing Starburst the the the red and
orange and pink and yellow ones
Starburst the tiny little uh cuboids
with wrapping paper around each one
cuboids yeah
yeah and they come in they come in lemon
and strawberry and Cherry and orange
uh yeah I mean in the UK there's
different flavors oh there are Apple
ones what strawberry BlackBerry
Orange
no it's not yeah
I can show a picture of something what
the [ __ ] wait a minute
are you sure these are Starbursts and
not now and laters
uh I don't know I mean I know
strawberries are like the most the the
default Starburst
but like are you sure these okay okay
are you sure these aren't like some like
other flavor because you know you can
get like Skittles but you can also get
like Tropical Skittles or Berry Skittles
[Music]
I'm just I'm just I mean I'm in shock
and awe here because I mean
I remember having pear flavored
Starburst pear I mean that sounds I
wouldn't I wouldn't be like I mean yeah
that sounds great just to me different
flavors to me like the this this this
flavor profile lemon yellow yellow pink
orange red is like
this is this is this is Starburst and
everything else is a is a
I would say that's like yeah more common
I guess
more I would always leave the lemon ones
I think I think I didn't like lemon the
lemon no it was the orange I didn't like
uh strawberry is my favorite
I like the ice yeah but then I also
really like the Apple ones I think lemon
is in the Blackberry ones I think lemon
is the least good but they're all good I
don't like leave any of them hang on
um
oh my God
UK UK Starburst a comparison
yeah I think I think the main ones were
like strawberry and blackberry were the
like the two flavors and then orange
and lemon
so I guess it was just Cherry that was
different
instead of cherry head wait a minute
British version so British okay they
have an orange a cherry lemon lime combo
and what's the what's the purple and
grape
Blackberry or grape some I think it's
BlackBerry
black currant yeah okay I'm glad it's
not grape because grape sucks grape is
like the worst flavor of anything
yeah
um I love black currant Black Crown is
my like that's I was thinking it's like
the staple the staple like confectionary
flavor is blackcurrant wait wait okay so
your red is CH your red is Cherry no you
know your red is strawberry our red is
Cherry and our pink is strawberry
so that's so that's wacky wow I didn't
know this damn I want to try these I
want to try these black currant
Starbursts
sounds oh yeah sounds pretty good
actually yeah I think the Apple ones I
was thinking of were like the sour
chewets
chew its
yeah chew it's you know chew it's no is
it like chicken they're very similar
they're like cuboids with individual
wrapping just a different brand and
powers
what what's wrong with cuboids they're
not cubes I mean they're not rectangles
I guess they're Tech I guess you're
technically right they are cuboids
they are I would call them Squares I'm
just gonna say I would call them Squares
nah all right cuboids is funny all right
um
chewits had like a dinosaur mascot
and it would be like ah I'm I'm a
dinosaur and I love chew it so much oh
well he realized that I would eat them
there's a there's another thing called
now and laters
which are very similar to a starburst
but they're really hard they're really
hard and you pretty much have to suck on
them for a while until they become soft
enough that you can chew on them
where is the the dinosaur
where's the dinosaur
Google where's the dinosaur where's the
dinosaur they have
the like it looks like a really old
advert
over like a Godzilla looking like
live-action puppet dinosaur and then
there's a more recent like re-done like
cartoon but it was a specific cartoon
look at look at look at this thing look
at this uh
when I when I'm doing these searches I
keep finding the same uh Google image
result
um for single green Mike and Ike
incredibly rare masculine shape for
female pleasure
what
colors this has popped up multiple times
on my Google searches now
Mike and Ike
an incredibly rare masculine shape you
know Mike and Ike's
I yeah I know all of them I don't think
I've had one okay [ __ ] they're fine
masculine shape masculine shape for
female pleasure so true so true
uh this is the advert all right
I'm gonna post that advert hopefully you
can see it
you know what
and this is
chew its I like to CH I like to chew it
chew it okay let's let's give it a give
it a watch
[Music]
oh my God
[Music]
I thought that song was about chew it
and then I heard it in the Madagascar
movie and I was like what why they put
the chicken why they put the chew it
song in Madagascar that's that's
advertising this this chewy this chewy
substance that I've made
I think it's pretty good I think it's
maybe a little too much cornstarch
the consist the chewiness the
consistency is about right but it's a
little bit like it's firm but like it
like if you hold it it sort of like
deforms and starts to kind of like droop
and I would rather
I'm thinking maybe yeah maybe just a
tiny bit of gelatin
or maybe maybe I could you can buy
shellac in flakes you have to buy it in
flakes maybe wax maybe carnauba wax
flavor's good though
the first one I made had too much acid
it was too sour
too sour
and not sweet enough too starchy so in
this time I replaced half the starch
that I added I put half of it with uh
with a confectioner's sugar
which um I had forgotten about
confectioners sugar
it turns out
it turns out that uh yeah when you just
add sugar to a solution sometimes it
becomes gritty and crystalline great way
to not have that happen it's just use
confectioners sugar because it's finely
ground and it and it's and it's powdery
they've solved this problem for me and I
had forgotten
I'm a genius
okay
candy what was the other one frutella
frutella was like the non-super sweet
but still quite tasty fruit flavored
cuboid snack
are you Brits on your in your cuboid
snacks
uh we love cuboids over here I have
never seen a frutella
we have Fruitopia
we got frutella we got Nutella now these
what else have we got now these ones
have yeah Green Apple raspberry
lemon
and uh yeah black BlackBerry
oh it looks pretty good
yeah oh and then the the box has it has
fruit but the fruits are all square or
cube
yeah just like the products just like
products just like the product no
question no that only becomes a cube if
you combine two of them together and
squish them you take them out of the
packaging you push them together they
molecularly bond to become one cube of
the product these are these are gelatin
free
wait these are gelatin free weights so
what's in them
um fruit no
no they're veg they're vegetarian which
means they don't contain gelatin wait
okay I have to know
brutella fruitella recipe ingredients
it
glucose syrup sugar fully height okay
fully hydrogenated coconut oil
fruit juices from concentrate wait beef
gelatin
ah traitor
well that other one said it was gelatin
free I mean maybe there's different
you'd have to come and buy one find out
look at the packaging Gum arabic
Gum arabic uh uh glycerol
huh okay all right how to make frutella
at home wow I I I think I have mentioned
this I have looked up um how to I've
looked up recipes for licorice at to
make it yourself and all the recipes
that I find involve like milk and eggs
and it's like so
[ __ ] stupid like that's obviously not
what you're buying yeah they all involve
like like like a condensed milk
and [ __ ] eggs and [ __ ]
like fresh eggs
it's like give me a break
is that for like the bonding agent or
something yeah it's squish stick it
together yeah probably it's probably
like I mean I'm sure it tastes fine
but it's not that's a cake they're
making there's a that's a that's a
danged cake I mean the end result looks
pretty good you know you CH you it gets
this this paste this sticky like paste
and you cut it into you know cuboids or
whatever and I'm sure it's fine
but it's not you know I want something
that keeps on the shelf forever
and that you know make it with eggs it's
not going to do that
um now now hang on
ah [ __ ]
ah [ __ ] I was gonna look I was gonna
look something else up but I forgot
um
oh well
yeah eggs eggs I guess are just like
something that
eggs I guess are like there's something
they're a good they're a bonding agent
that anyone would have in their kitchen
like if you're just for a home cook or
just a hobbyist or just someone who's
like bored and wants to do make
something in their kitchen like yeah a
recipe that involves eggs is like yeah
sure just go Donuts use eggs just like
just like Financial advice it's exactly
like Financial advice because you know I
was watching the video by Patrick Boyle
and he said
that like a lot of the like popular
Financial advice that like authors
recommend is stuff
that is kind of just wrong
but a lot of it is wrong in a way that
is designed to like
sort of account for the fact that like
humans are stupid and don't behave
correctly and what I mean by that is
like the example a lot of popular
Financial advice tells you to pay down
your smallest debts first
like if you have debts find the one that
you have that's the smallest and pay
that one down first whereas like
the right thing to do by any metric is
to pay down the one that has the highest
interest rate
but I guess a lot of authors will tell
you paid on the smallest one first
because it's like
psychologically if you successfully
knock one off the list it like feels
better
right and so it's like
kind of not
right but maybe it might get people to
behave in a way that gives it might you
know might get them to stick with it
better
uh or something
even though it's not
mathematically optimal
um
good thing I always do the
mathematically optimal thing
I don't have to worry I don't have to
worry about that yeah so true it is so
true it is so true though
um
let me look at my let me look at my
notes I'm gonna look at my stupid notes
I played a video game
this week
oh yeah yeah
did I mention that I found Phantom's
Revenge on some other website
you did that's
okay I mean let me let me see if I can
find it wait no I don't know if you did
you probably I vaguely remember this but
I think it might oh I might be confusing
it for something else but I don't know
what else so maybe I did hear it wait a
minute
no I was I was thinking of I was
thinking of the pump run away from
snakes was found on other websites
because it didn't have I didn't have a
link it didn't have uh my name or
Charlie's name in the game itself so
there's no way to get like recognition
for that oh really damn yeah so for for
for
uh the the
pumpkin alley it starts with our names
and there's names like in the credits so
even if it's ends up on other sites and
I think it has the little demo we made
fridge uh we've still got credit there's
links within the game itself two yeah
things that we've done yeah Phantoms
revenge is like that it says it's by Ben
Saint and like there's links to like
read the comic and stuff in it so I'm
not I'm not worried about yeah it's
getting stolen or misattributed or
whatever yeah it's here on on soft tonic
on softonic.com there is a web page
and yeah they have their own write-up
of the game it's not they didn't just
copy paste my write-up they wrote
they wrote their own she's kind of
interesting uh here I guess I'll just
post the link why not
um
apparently 68 people have downloaded it
from this website which is interesting
uh free download I mean it's free anyway
so yeah yeah it's free on itch as well
uh okay
oh from indeed for game developer Ben
sane so they do credit you yeah yeah
they say developer band saying over on
the right side you know I mean whatever
like I'm not not upset about it with its
content and the variety of activities
for you to do Phantom's revenge is a
thoroughly thoroughly enjoyable
experience true for Indie gaming fans so
true it is somewhat comparable to Mother
of many or limbo yeah oh the colorful
and more graphic aesthetic to it I okay
I read this write up and I went first of
all limbo sucks second of all uh I was
curious about mother of many so I went
and I go and I and I downloaded mother
of many and I played it
and it was interesting
but it was not what I wanted it to be I
was kind of disappointed in it
uh yeah I played mother of many and from
the screenshot that they showed on this
website uh yeah yeah yeah here here is
here is the screenshot
and I thought from this that you would
be playing as like that it would be like
a side-scrolling
action adventure or beat em up where
maybe you would like control like a
squad of mice and you're like their
mother or something and you're like
commanding them to like fight for you
uh that's this was wrong this was not
the kind of game it was at all it was
actually a 3D
um I don't even know like a horde
based like first person
shooter
basically you play mother of many and
you start the game and when you get to
the actual game part of it you're in an
arena and zombies just zombie mice just
start like
encroaching into the arena from the
sides and you have your little Scythe
that shoots beams
and you have to
you know you just have to fight back the
hordes
and you know they come like faster and
faster and more and more and bigger and
stronger of them
and you know you get experience points
from the ones you kill and as you get as
you level up you get to choose it's sort
of like a roguelike element to it where
like
you know you're choosing which upgrades
to get and that that changes your play
style a little bit and basically the the
goal is just like you know survive 15
minutes of fighting this horde off and
it's fine the gameplay is a little
shallow
uh aesthetically I guess it looked
pretty good it has like an you know the
like Eastern European depression
simulator they look pretty cool they
look cool in this screenshot there's
only there's only one actual Mouse
there's only one actual Mouse in the
game and it's uh this one yeah it's
frankly there's not enough mice
but she's the mother of many right no
she is not the mother of many she is
your sis she is your sister
and sister of Juan
I'm not sure I'm not clear on if the
mother of many is like your mom
or like the goddess of the Woods
I think it's both
anyway the point is you're bringing your
sister out to this like secret place in
the woods to to kill her and sacrifice
her so that her blood will nourish the
land and like your crops will grow
and and when you try and cut and cut her
uh she gets possessed by the mother of
many and like summons all these demons
you gotta fight the demons
yeah I'm I'm just noticing on your thing
there's like
translated versions at the bottom what
like
yeah it says program available in other
language I think they just translate the
page
not the game itself
I'm curious if you can tell like if it's
been downloaded from another country
wait a minute
like on your Softonic page like at the
bottom it's like oh Phantoms yeah Korean
Italian it's it says in in the details
list that it's like oh yeah eat on the
Spanish page it says that the game is in
English
so I'm it would be so [ __ ] up if like
they had actually like gone into the
code and translated the the game into no
no I wouldn't expect that that would be
amazing sort of like I'm I'm interested
because it doesn't say
on those different pages the number of
downloads
but does that mean that if somebody from
from Korea did download it it would say
one
I think it's probably quite likely that
nobody has downloaded this game from the
Italian uh uh web web version of the web
page
ah it would be funny though it'd be so
funny
yeah because because this hypothetically
is like
exposing you to so many different
markets yes but you would never have I'm
I'm truly am Mr worldwide
oh there's a Polish page
ah no downloads
oh Netherlands
ah no downloads
it's just so funny seeing like
in in the midst of uh different language
texts things that are State English like
My Little Pony Sonic the Hedgehog strong
YouTuber
this is great it's a Japanese page
uh
uh katana's Pony and it's never
oh
drinks attitude
body with an attitude a katana wielding
Pony with an attitude I'm pretty sure is
just exactly what the English version
says oh yeah
like what is the Vietnamese sure why not
a pony a pony slasher with a story
well I didn't know Vietnamese looked
like that
it's like mostly Arabic characters not
Arabic um I'm thinking of Arabic numbers
um
like what are these characters called
they're not the diet they're not like
diacritics you're talking about the ones
with the weird like symbols above the
letters
no is there a way to to like
categorize like types of
text what like in in Asian languages
they have like symbols like this but
a lot of European languages share
letters like ABC
uh
uh Vietnamese apparently has like stuff
that looks more Western
uh
uh I mean I'm looking at what I think is
the Vietnamese page and it looks like
all the letters are yeah
basically you know Arabic not Arabic um
yeah yeah that's what I'm thinking
what's the word for that describing that
uh did they did Vietnam just like not
have their own like written
language until they
or maybe they didn't have like an
alphabetical language maybe they only
had like a pictographic language
I don't know I don't know
yeah we're weird that they have
this this is their written
system what's up with that
what's up with that
what's up with that I mean I don't know
that it's Vietnamese it just has the
thing VI next to it I mean it says what
else could that be it's yeah
what else what else could could it
possibly be I can't think of anything
okay French colonial rule of Vietnam led
to the official adoption of the
Vietnamese alphabet which is based on
Latin Latin script that's what I was
thinking about here we go
interesting so French are the reason for
that
they strike again
um I have let me see have I gotten
through my entire list yet
um
illness mother of many anime bracket
bonds
website down the last thing I want to
say this week is that my my website is
down did you hear about this by any
chance
uh yeah yeah uh Jesse dmca
uh dmca reported uh saint-comics.com for
hosting uh the plebe in the weeb a
Blu-ray files
lamal uh yeah yeah I just I just I just
have to say I just have to say how funny
I think it is
that rather than
rather than make the Blu-rays
or
let me give him money to let me sell
them he has elected instead to pay a
lawyer to uh
is paid money to bury them pay money to
to prevent them from seeing the light of
day uh
I know did you are you aware that I
offered him a cut that I said just let
me let me give you a cut of sales and
and let me keep selling and he said no
uh
I wasn't aware of that exchange I guess
it was in DMS it was it was in DMS it
was in DMS that would have been like
maybe a month ago or maybe to something
like that
yeah yeah yeah I mean well uh so
yeah he he hired a guy
he hired a guy who does dmca takedowns
for 50 bucks a pop I I looked into the
uh I got I got a letter and I looked
into who sent it and it was this this
one guy and I looked at his website and
I was like interesting
uh so the website my website's down
I just need a new host which is
actually the way the way it worked out
is is like it's kind of good that
something happened to make me switch
hosts because my old hosting was on like
I had I had picked a really bad plan the
plan I had picked was like month to
month and I was paying like 14 a month
to host my site uh you know I switched
hosts that's that is quite a lot it was
quite a lot it was I
it was not a good I I screwed I screwed
up so I have picked the new plan that
I've got I've locked in a rate it's
gonna be like
it's gonna be like 3.99 a month for a
while and then it'll go up to like eight
8.99 in like a year or two
so that's fine the website's down for
the moment it'll be back up in I don't
know a week or two
probably not even that long
so whatever
no no biggie no problem and you know I I
gotta say
I did
I I never really intended to leave the
plebe and the weeb stuff up on my store
Page forever
you know it's not like
you know it's not really germane to the
content of my personal website
yeah so so what I mean you did also say
that nobody was buying it anymore oh
yeah I mean a a couple people bought
them at the last minute when I said I
was almost out
uh so my my you know I had I had a
couple copies left I said guys I'm
almost out you know a handful more
people bought them and now I'm out and
so it's all good
the
the the the the
you know
but you know
okay
I just
after after that
when I said okay they're free now
if they're free to download now it's
it's so it was no longer about the money
it was no longer about selling them or
making money
uh uh and it's I don't know don't you
think it's weird don't you think it's
weird and wacky that like the dmca
takedown didn't come until like
after I'd already said I'm not selling
them anymore they're free now
been wild and wacky and wonderful
I don't know I mean
is it is it not
could you
I'm trying to think if there's like a
reason a DMC has to be against something
digital because you're hosting a digital
file as opposed to having an a store
where you can buy something and maybe
that's different
uh
what do you mean
uh well I don't know like like a dmca
against your site would not prevent you
from having physical stock that you
could mail to people who DM you on
anywhere no but a file hosting you can
you can you can block that from existing
I don't know yeah I mean maybe there's a
difference in something like that I mean
oh you know I don't know all I'm saying
is um
I guess I I just
I just really feel
that Jesse's whole attitude about this
thing
is completely irrational and and very
stupid and and wrong-headed and like he
seems to have felt from the very
beginning that I am stealing from him
and and uh victimizing him
and I don't know I just I just think
that if you take a step back and look at
it like the the fact that this is
happening now after this stuff was
already free I mean there's no I'm not
even selling them anymore I'm just
offering it for free I literally just
did I did his job for him and I made the
Blu-rays and I completed that work for
him and I said anyone can have them and
it's free now don't worry about it and
then he gets lawyers involved and then
he sends his DMC a takedown takes my
website down
it just I don't know it just really kind
of uh just really kind of uh highlights
that like there really was no need for
any of this you really could have just
been normal about it and not been a
little a little little baby [ __ ] about
it and just and just not uh [ __ ]
just don't be such a spaz I don't know
he's been real spaz about it the whole
time that's that's my opinion
um and uh you know
sorry
um just there's no point there's no
there's no actual harm being done and I
don't really think there ever has been
uh and that's my line and uh we'll never
uh I will never recance it that's uh
what I have felt all along and I
continue to feel that way
uh but oh well you know I guess none of
that matters in the face of fifty
dollars given to a guy to send a letter
to uh to a web host
uh the
I don't know what else to say about it
I don't like it
um
anyway that's anyway that's why my
website's down
I know I know you know I know my site is
like a huge a hugely popular uh buzzing
Hive of activity
I know it's a thousand people a day are
like are are checking it to read Beast
capades to get caught up on bescapades
so that when the next chapter drops and
the perfect comic party they'll be
caught up and they'll know what's going
on and a thousand people a day are like
where's where's the website I can't read
beescapades I can't read I can't read uh
slime and Punishment to understand the
context behind Phantom's Revenge
and I just want you to know that I'm I'm
with you and I'm working on it and um
the problems will all be solved soon we
will put all this silliness behind us
okay that's all I have to say
okay okay
sorry I was just looking at my currently
operational website and I was just smart
no don't look at that I was looking at
my links that I have to from my Clarissa
to buy the Clarissa book I'm like I
can't wait can't wait to add a new link
well I guess it'll be the same link but
I guess it'll send the link to like the
the page of Clarissa volumes rather than
the single one
I think
um I think he'll be like ah what if you
want to buy one of one of the series
I think give and take dot sight
represents
a um
I think I think it's a I think it's
violating my copyright
I think it I think it represents a uh a
uh
you know a functional Market replacement
for Saint comics.com I think it's uh
yeah pretty much it's not it's not
transformative enough
I'm gonna have to take it down I'm sorry
it's over
well it's it's well they're both because
because you know when people see
same Comics is down they say well now
what now I gotta go I guess I have to I
guess I have to go read yeah I guess I
have to go over to closer gun smoke
instead and then their lust is is slaked
and then they they'll never read
Vapors chapter three I'm gonna I'm gonna
release a new comic called the boopers
no you wouldn't dare
it's about two teenagers
uh Vincent and vagda oh I can't do that
I can't do that one yeah you can yeah go
no no no don't be a coward go for it
yeah yeah yeah yeah vector's the boy
okay they're both trans okay
fine
fine if you must
oh
losers they're so confident and they
don't have any social problems at all
that's that's awesome that's that sounds
so cool
[Laughter]
the bloopers I'm gonna ah and then they
say I'm gonna go whoop you wanna go yeah
they're best friends well
now they're best friends well [ __ ]
yeah you can do that if you want unless
I beat you to it
and then my second comic will be called
the loser and they never win a fight
hey
so in the green night
is um is this is this the game
uh yeah basically no no the Christmas
game is about getting you
getting
I you punch me I punch you
it's a weird game I don't know why I
don't know why it's called the Christmas
game so though so the Christmas game the
Green Knight says chop my body and then
a year from now next and then he says
you have to try and Nick me it's like is
it like sounds like he's gonna like be
dodging around is it like Saint Nick
like Saint Nick Nick me and then neck is
it is the idea that then next Christmas
I'll come and Nick you
is it like trick or treat like yeah you
you you trick me by slicing my wood off
and then tomorrow I mean next year I'll
come and treat you to a a gouging wound
in your body
uh yeah something like that interesting
fascinating concerning I think it's
looking into it
I think it they just call it the
Christmas game probably just because the
original story has it during Christ's
Mass uh and it's not to do with like
tradition like not traditional but like
um more modern understandings of holiday
season stuff it could just be like a
pagan thing
well no it wouldn't be a pagan thing
because it's Christmas they call it the
Christmas game maybe it was a pagan
thing they changed it in the film to be
the Christmas game because people know
what that is
who cares no it would have been
because isn't going like one of the
nights of the round
so they so they would have been
Christian
right okay yeah I don't know the history
it probably it probably has some pagan
origin though
now I mean I mean a lot of Christian
stuff does
it does I don't know when Christmas got
taken over or the pagan holiday of like
the winter solstice got taken over by
Christians
um
because when Korean Christians came and
wokified it they CR they they
christified it
um they christophered
um
like
because Jesus wasn't born on December
but like when was that like changed
um
oh gee I just don't know my history
Golly Golly gee
uh G whiz I don't know I guess we'll
just never know I guess only the Lord
may know such secrets
gee whiz we jizz
that's true so that's what they said
that's really true
La Mao
um
oh God
I didn't read the new one piece yet
1081 is the new one this week I think I
think I did read that I forgot to
mention it to you [ __ ]
yeah yeah oh yeah
I heard it's good
did we talk about GARP in the last one
when he does the big punch on this the
Galaxy fist yeah yeah we yeah I think we
did talk about that all right
well I guess we're doing one piece now I
guess we're doing one piece now
should I just read it real quick
yeah read it real quick
um but I want to immediately draw your
attention
to
the image at the front of the chapter
where Sanji is reading a book about
clocking oh yeah
ah he just didn't uh I just didn't
complete the uh I just didn't complete
the uh the o
but then it would be cool king without C
what
wait you idiot no cooking doesn't have a
seat
I thought he missed out an o whoops it
is cocking it is looks like I'm the one
who doesn't know English
all right all right I'm reading I'm
reading
man
I like scuffed piece
I was I'm going back uh doing I think I
I don't remember if I mentioned the One
Piece book club written volumes
uh from previous reading all the volumes
from the beginning with a new group
people yes I heard about that
and
um scuffed piece kind of was all always
there
it's just that there's
because like I look at the drawings and
I'm like oh you know what you can really
tell that this was hand drawn with a
like it wasn't I'm I'm sorry I'm sorry
but like that's just manga most manga is
pretty scuffed if you stop and you like
look at every individual panel
uh yes
except for like except for like death
note
or or like berserk right
like some of them aren't but most manga
you you
it's drawn with the idea that you look
at any given panel for like a quarter of
a second
it literally like doesn't need to look
good
and yet it's so good and yet it's so
good and yet it's so good
okay I'm reading a few moments later all
right I'm done
so
all right looks like Blackbeard did not
get the ope ope fruit
but just like I thought yeah he he wants
he wants its power for
eternal life
uh but he would not he would not be able
to do that if he stole the power for
himself I guess he would have to give it
to one of his subordinates
which I think he could do
I think what he could do is like have
like
like a slave do it like he captures
someone who forces them to have the
fruit and then tells them to to use it
on him like that yeah yeah
uh so if he could capture law he might
be able to I don't think he'd be able to
do that because it's a slow day but what
does he mean about he says the hundred
hearts of people that law stole
yeah I I think this has been explained
like mentioned a long time ago law
does that thing where he uses his power
to take someone's heart away he had
Caesar's heart for a long time yeah and
that was a bargaining chip
um and I think he did that to
like yeah 100 people a rocky part but I
forget where Rocky part is or when that
happens yeah I don't uh I don't even
remember that at all
maybe it's maybe it's a new thing maybe
it's not an old thing that's being
referenced but I think it is an old
thing uh I mean but the point is uh
all those people at Pirate Island which
is Blackbeard's Island
so I guess law made a lot of enemies and
Blackbeard made friends with those
enemies
but if I bring you or something
we're all living in fear on pirate yeah
I guess so
uh this
this chapter makes Blackbeard seem kind
of cool
oh yeah that it's the funny thing with
black parody he's not like a dumb
I'm evil and I want to destroy sort of
villain he's
been sort of set up as like
a an inversion not an inversion of Luffy
but like a different interpretation of
the freedom of piracy yeah he's all
about freedom
and but he's you know
freedom freedom freedom for himself
at the cost of others Luffy is is all
about freedom
uh from self yeah
but also and for everyone
for everyone yeah
but he likes sharing freedoms yeah
Blackbeard is like cynical he doesn't
believe he sees someone being oppressed
he'll he'll do something to stop it but
Blackbeard will be like how can I turn
this to my advantage
yes yeah
uh so in a way he's a good he's a good
um
smart and thematically uh relevant
antagonist yeah it's the main villain
kind of kind of the main villain I mean
yeah see seeing them all just like hang
out in the bar with kuzan they're all
just like uh you know they're all just
vibing they're all just uh just
bantering
yeah they're like oh you hate the
Marines too that like AKA you know that
piece of [ __ ] yeah it's like maybe if if
you weren't enemies with these guys they
might be kind of cool to just hang out
with I don't know I mean I mean black
bear when they when you meet Blackbeard
yeah Jaya see he's just he's an eating
cherry pie
yeah yeah
and I I always liked
that Luffy hates Cherry Pie and
Blackbeard loves it and that's what they
fight over rather than anything else
yeah
they're like yeah they're they're
they're kind of similar
uh but they just
fundamental fundamental disagreement on
the method yeah
why would Luffy hate cherry pie
yeah I know it's such an odd little
thing I also don't he loves I also don't
really care for cherry pie low tier pie
uh yeah he would rather get me
missing a leg now from the battle with
uh Al-Qaeda you know this is interesting
doesn't doesn't affect him at all
doesn't even bother him but uh yeah it
just makes a I mean press Pro also had
that like he lost an arm from Pedro and
then he turned his arm into a candy arm
who's who she still has an eyes Prospero
the big uh the number one
son the first son of big man the big
tongue guy
oh uh
uh uh the Candyman he literally makes
candy
yeah this is devil fruit um I'm having
trouble picturing him let me just Google
him real fast
oh pero Sparrow pero Sparrow oh yeah
yeah this wow this guy left like no
impression on me whatsoever
okay he he had a big tongue sure
sure whatever
yeah but that's not even his real tongue
it's probably a candy tongue
nah of course this is real time he's
been he loves licking
candy well
Among Us
um all right so yeah there's a few
things starting off yes
um GARP lands with the ship
and he's like uh [ __ ] I'm old and you
know wow so strong he's so strong and
yet he's not as strong as he was I like
that Trope I enjoy that one
um and then
the the cute girl with the gun gets
turned to ice
by by aokiji
yes unfortunate this is very unfortunate
and aokichi is one of the black paid
Pirates Who is here rather than at uh we
presume Egghead
on the ship
uh yeah he says teaches away
so so maybe teaching so maybe that means
teach is at Egghead
yeah so yeah that's what I'm thinking so
the teach Blackbeard and some other
people who haven't we haven't seen
are on the ship and lkg is not he's here
and
the whole thing with him joining the
Blackbeard Pirates we were wondering
about this I've been wondering about
this for a long time like why would you
do that
obviously the fight with the the lkg and
leaving the Marines
seem they say it's like over the fleet
Admiral position
I guess that's been said before
but I feel like it was probably more
than just that like I want the promotion
no I want it and then they fight like
that that seems a bit insane I it seemed
like
uh I mean it seems like this the the the
the hierarchy was just kind of in chaos
at the time and so like one of them will
probably get it
and I'm sure it wasn't like an official
like whoever wins the fight gets it it's
more just like all right we but we don't
like each other we don't want the other
guy to become the new Fleet Admiral
there's nothing to do but just fight
about it and like [ __ ] the guy who loses
uh uh yeah I don't I don't know what to
think of aokiji because like
like I said last time
I don't think he's dumb he doesn't seem
like a
like a heart on his sleeve kind of
person no
that thinks uh after he does stuff no
but the way he's characterized here is
that
you know he got into a a fight with the
other Admiral over
like a position in the military
and then he joins Blackbeard's crew
on the
you know for for like presumably the
protection and the freedom the piracy
allows what yeah and I'm like that that
makes sense enough but then
well I guess it's just I guess it just
does make sense it just sort of is sad
to see him do things well there seems to
make him look like a villain like
turning somebody to ice instantly okay I
know he's trying to protect I mean it's
turning people to ice like he can turn
him back it's fine
Blackbeard says like uh you know we all
we all we all profit because uh
yeah we all okay the the the the you go
pirate Soul wrong we ain't just a merry
band of Chums bumming around we all
profit from having our own agendas
that's what makes us pirates yes and the
the viz translation that I just read is
different it says have you got the wrong
idea about Pirates nobody said we're all
best friends here the only thing Pirates
need is an alignment of interests which
is you know it's similar so you know I
love this face by the way there's
something so satisfying about this face
which oh yeah they posted teach teach is
a good face good yes he's a great design
I love his nose and his face so like
he's so his giant face it's like so
threatening
he's right up in there
um so
I mean you're a free man do what you
want so I mean kuzan is
I guess he must see aligning himself
with these guys
as useful to some end yeah I don't I
don't exactly know what his and his goal
is right now
but I think well I'm totally sure that
whatever his goal was
um or continues to be is very much
involved with the reason that he got
into such a catastrophic fight with
aokichi um like I knew I mean uh over a
fleet Admiral position because like he
doesn't seem like he would give a [ __ ]
about something about being Fleet
Admiral
yeah I think either because he believes
that um Akainu would be a terrible
problem or I think he that's probably
the idea yeah I think he probably yeah
if my read on him is correct I think he
just wouldn't want
Akainu to do it he just wouldn't want
him in charge I don't think I don't
think kuzan is the kind of guy who's
like I've got to be freaking king or
whatever
uh yeah
I could see how joining the Blackbeard
Pirates might help him in the goal of
yeah eventually taking down Akainu that
makes sense
yes but and then there's the bit where
GARP he's fighting with GARP
and he says your number one Protege
versus your new favorite so new favorite
meaning Kobe and uh that implies that uh
kuzan was the old favorite of GARP hmm
meaning that GARP probably also saw
goodness in kuzan yeah
and I wonder if kuson is throwing this
fight deliberately
because obviously he has to look like
he's defending stuff yes I see because
he
GARP says he's hesitating or wavering
and yeah
yeah and he's sort of letting himself
lose to garpin it's not it's not a bad
story like GARP is such a legend yeah it
would happen yeah
that's that's true but I wonder if I
wonder if Kazan could have beaten him or
at least really tried harder than this
I
well he he freezes uh he freezes him
right he freezes guard but it just like
doesn't work
did I yeah he does he just he just
breaks out of him or something yeah
super hacky Super Mario yeah
wavering is a sign of weakness wait
yeah okay it says don't be would you
kill your senior apprentice's favorite
Protege don't be tight and then GARP
says don't be tied down by this nonsense
I taught you to live in the moment
it's not working on him listen up kuzan
wavering is a sign right he breaks out
of the ice and then he kicks his kicks
his little ass
throws him into the blue throws him into
the blue hole
it's like a black hole but it's blue
because he's a cop yeah there's a thin
The Thin Blue Hole
uh
um
I think yeah I think he might be right
that he might have uh he might just kind
of be putting on appearances for this
fight
funny how Blackbeard
you know I've been playing uh a battle
Network Mega Man
and it's funny every now and then your
rival shows up and your rival chowd has
protoman is his Navi and he's all and
occasionally he'll say something like
this he'll be like Proto man will be
like me and Chad aren't friends like
we're just uh we're we're just I'm just
his net I dutifully serve him as his
program uh and Mega Man will be like but
me and Lan we're best friends and and
brothers and and our d we share our DNA
and we love each other in a platonic way
and Proto man will be like hmm it's gay
bro and Chad will be like yeah it's
totally gay I don't think protoman's hot
at all and proton will be like yeah I
don't think Chow's hot either also he's
like 11 years old so it's weird to even
talk like that okay bye
um
insisting like yeah we're
yeah me and my co-workers yeah we're not
friends we're just here to get our [ __ ]
done and make a ton of money
it's like I get it I get it
I get it
it's a little sad
it's a little sad to be like yeah I
pretty much hang out with these guys 24
7.
we hang out on a on a on a ship together
maybe that's not true maybe maybe
they're not always on a ship together I
guess they have a whole island now they
probably don't even have to hang out
together unless they really want to
well I I mean the Blackbeard Pirates
seem like chummy I don't think they seem
like cold co-workers they can have a
beer and they can have a laugh yeah and
they can enjoy a victory together but
like ultimately
they're in it yeah not for friendship
they're in it for power yeah
yeah but they can get power by being
together so it's just it's a kind of
you know it's not unemotional Ah that's
what the pcpu is supposed to be
yeah we were we were supposed to kill
the government and uh and uh
and yet it's still there the government
and it's not moved hasn't moved an inch
and now they've elected the real life
version of Akainu Joe Biden there's
nothing we can do about it we were
supposed to stop this
he's got his magma Powers Yeah
uh Joe ah Joe it's jover it is jover uh
um let's see okay what else to
well the next thing in the chapter is
that we see that I predicted and is
pretty obvious but I predicted law oh
yeah defeated yes defeated just like kid
you know just like kid
damn Blackbeard is defeated law
on winner Island I don't know if that's
the name of the island they were at
before I guess it must have been because
if it was the it was if it was like the
one depicted before
where like law was briefly turned into a
woman for that one panel
good times do you remember that I
vaguely remember that yeah
yeah it's a little little like haha
we're fighting and this is the reason
was he turned into a Woman by
doc Q with his um trans disease
I was thinking it was who's the is it
Ivanovic is the one that can turn you
into a woman
is that really what it is
uh yeah the hormone's hilarious docq has
like weaponized like estrogen bullets
amazing yeah and they say oh it's only
temporary it's just a freak him out a
little let's just make it a little it's
just just to make it all weird and [ __ ]
uh so that we can gain the upper hand it
was like it worked shut up you just
wanted to draw Laura's a girl wait yeah
wait a minute wait a minute
well
would that have happened like a long
time ago
because I mean doc wait
if doc Q shot law
then I mean was was is that the same
encounter that led to his submarine
being destroyed
I mean I'm assuming that I can't
remember I don't think there's enough
landmarks in these panels to determine
whether it's the same island
um all I know is they were fighting we
didn't see the resolution of that fight
and here is a resolution of a fight
between black bear and law I think it
makes sense that it's the same thing
yeah yeah meaning this would have
happened a little while ago but not that
long ago I mean if if he was already
getting shot by doc Q I have to imagine
that that
was I don't remember if it was a bullet
it may have been like a gas or something
okay but they were because he was fine a
bunch of the crew was like but Q was
there and they were having a battle so I
mean yeah yeah
Blackbeard must have showed up later
now Blackbird was there during oh okay
so
so this is so this they were they were
in the throes of a fight it was just we
didn't see what happened okay so this is
what happened
okay so the log got B
and uh we we saw earlier that Blackbeard
knows of the road panagus and big mom
kaido have one each law has those ones
so now Blackbeard and Shanks both have
kaido's and big mom's Road Pony gliss
um but then
there's two more they don't know about
one of them we do know about it's the
one inside Zoe the giant uh the Giant
what is it it's a it's a elephant tree
in the shape of a whale what on top of
it yeah that's the location there's like
the The Mink tribe settlement and
there's a big tree that looks like a
whale
did I hallucinate that
are you know what a treat
okay
Zao is not the elephant the elephant is
kashina is the elephant and it has a
tree in the shape of a whale on it and
that's Zao and that's where the the pony
glyph is no Zoe zo is wait Zoe is the
the island on the top of the elephant
called kashim okay and then
there is a tree shaped like a whale
and in that tree there is a pony glyph
Sheena I'm typing Khushi because she's
saying Karina and I'm like no the
elephant there's a glyph in a tree and a
tree in the shape of a whale and a whale
on a Zone an elephant
okay sure whatever
the Zoe on its back so is the island and
the thing
layout and locations whale Forest that's
what it was called
um
no images
you [ __ ] me you're killing me over
here I just want to show Ben the whale
please
I want to see the whale tree
whale tree
okay here is an image of I think I guess
it's not a tree and now it is a tree
it's got It's got leaves coming out of
it huh
well
okay so that's in inside that is the
secret compartment where rhizo was
hiding and where the road punnoglyph is
okay and so and we don't know where the
fourth one is right
now the fourth one is hypothesized by
the blackbed Pirates it heard rumors
that the man marked by Flames has it who
is a mystery man I can't think of who it
could be
man marked by Flames means burnt I guess
I mean man marked by flames
it's I mean the only one I can think of
is Luffy because he's got the scar from
his on his chest from the from the magma
punch
uh
I guess you could you could say that but
I mean he doesn't oh yeah yeah
obviously not who they're talking about
they're talking about a mystery man that
travels in a black ship yeah um that
creates whirlpools around it and the man
marked by this is the first time we're
hearing about that right
I think so okay um
the man might be flames I had at first
thought was like Fisher tiger because
marked by Flames as in like branded with
a branding iron like the slaves will do
so it could be a fish man yeah yeah yeah
but I think all the permanent fishermen
have been like introduced and are either
fish or tiger or someone else and I
don't think it's any of those other
people
um other than that it could be someone
wounded by someone who had a flaming
devil fruit yeah I can't think of anyone
that would be
but I have heard just by people leaving
comments that what if the whirlpool
um you do you remember the very
beginning of One Piece no
no uh well yeah no I remember the yeah
what are you saying
Luffy leaves on his journey after
waiting 10 years after Shanks left he
punches that fish that but Shanks arm
you know the classic oh the I was like
I'm the the the the Sea King
seeking yeah the the local Village Sea
King tiny little guy bit Shanks arm off
Luffy punches it and then immediately
he's uh in a whirlpool and he'll die
right
healing a bit he's in a big whirlpool
and he's like oh I'm gonna drown I guess
I hide in this barrel and then that
barrel uh gets found by alvida's Pirates
and he meets Kobe and all that stuff
happens
um but the whirlpool
what if the whirlpool was because of the
whirlpool guy was there what if the
whirlpool was because the guy who makes
whirlpools behind him with a potential
devil fruit the guy man marked by Flames
whatever that guy was there I can't
think of any other reason why there
would have been a whirlpool
it couldn't have been like a sea thing
it could have just been a CNR when you
say that yeah I mean what yeah what are
the uh oh so you're saying that like the
whirlpool they just happened like the
sea just does things like okay uh when
you say that it makes me think of dragon
Envy the lightning that struck at Rogue
port
remember he kind of like controlled the
weather and like uh lightning struck
what when Luffy was gonna get executed
or something
yeah I don't know if it's clear what
dragons
fruit Dragon seems to have some kind of
weather control powers and he's got that
scar on his face I don't know maybe it's
Dragon maybe dragon is the Man mark
Ed
a deep dragon
he does have a big [ __ ] scar although
it looks more like a tattoo than a flame
did I did I show did I show you that
image of um how it kind of looks like
the bottom of the of a shoe as though
GARP had just like stomped stomped on
his face with like rubber sneakers
okay
abilities of powers
he's a supreme commander of the
Revolutionary Army
um
one piece
I do I love scuffed piece uh I love uh
the the retcons that I love when the
rubber fruit becomes uh Magic Cloud man
fruit
I eat my slop I do I I unironically do
okay remains unconfirmed if Dragon was
directly responsible for the wind blast
or if he has a power enabling to create
them
so we don't actually know if he has a
fruit we don't know anything about his
powers uh yeah but if he does have a
weather control Power
then his ability to make whether things
happen such as the wind lightning
potentially whirlpools uh
I the reason I don't think is dragon is
just because the rumor of the guy
traveling around in a black ship they
were just like the black bears
from the [ __ ] pirates of the cowboy
do you think that it's just like a
totally new guy
that we haven't seen before I think
I think it's it's got no real reason to
be a guy we know yeah
um
it probably has
like it could be like an old Ally of
like a famous pirate or a friend or
someone who we do know already
like oh maybe Rayleigh knows them or I
don't know
um I think the the the clue would be the
fact that at the bottom of the ocean
near Fishman Island where it used to be
this red pornograph used to be there
um and there's in its place upon a glyph
that is a an apology letter saying sorry
I had to move this
wait wait wait wait say that again
there's an apology pornoglyph which is
written as like sorry I just I gotta
take I think that's wait wait wait where
huh I'm sorry at the bottom at Fishman
Island there's an apology they go from
from you
oh we don't know
do we know what it's I'm sorry can you
explain this to me like I am stupid
because I don't understand I don't
remember what you're talking about
I I looked at it a few weeks ago and I
need to re-look at it just to remember
um
so the politicalist we know about
sea Forrest rugu Kingdom Fishman Island
all right Nico Robin initially believed
this Panic of held Vital Information to
understanding the void Century however
upon finding it she noted that it was
different from the other Pony glist she
had found reading more like an apology
letter than a historical text the
message was written by a man from the
surface known as Joy boy okay so Joy boy
wrote this phonoglyph in the message he
apologized the people of Fishman Island
for Breaking part of his promise which
involved returning to fisherman Island
to carry out Noah's purpose okay so
that's not what I'm turning to Fishman
Island to carry out Noah's purpose so he
apologized for not doing that or he said
he would do that
uh
yeah something about Noah uh the Giants
yeah I was gonna say Okay Noah's the
giant ship right okay no yes here here
it is at least 25 years ago
this is the fourth Red Road upon a glyph
at least 25 years ago this Pony glyph
was located at the sea Forest next to
joyboy's apology message
at a certain point later the road
particle if whereabouts became unknown
and it is currently considered lust hmm
and then there's a speculation however
is speculated to be in the position of
Hino kizo who's that Hino hinokizo is an
[Music]
oh hinokizu is the name given to a
mysterious man possessing a burn Sky
says the the man the man marked by
flames Hino izo
you know
kizu uh
so yeah it used to be right next to
joyboy's apology message next to Fishman
Island at some point 25 years ago
yeah I mean someone like Fisher tiger
kind of makes sense
I don't have fish attackers even alive
but um
yeah it's a mysterious man
and that's all we know
but we know it used to be on the
fisherman Island so if there's any clues
it would be some relation to fisherman
Island Man by marked by Flames I
immediately think of the sun Pirates you
know the burns the The Branding Iron
turned into a pirate emblem yeah
I don't know how you could make that
work
with Fisher tiger or it could be just
some other pirate crew member from that
crew but like
I don't know why would he do that I
guess a Fishman might have the ability
to do Fishman karate and make whirlpools
um because yeah the black bear Pirates
will like hypothesizing that it was a
devil fruit power and it might not be it
might be a fisherman karate technique
something that Jim pay could learn oh
finally our Helmsman we can level up our
Helmsman
you can get a power yes okay
all right so
um probably probably not gonna probably
not gonna crack this mystery no yeah
um oh man I'm gonna say it's a fisherman
that's my vague guess
that it's at least a fish man
because how could he put a [ __ ] move
it from under the ocean
how they gonna move it
well okay we don't I mean we don't know
that the guy who's got it now is the
same guy who took it in the first place
so like a fish even if a fish man took
it he might have given it to some other
guy this guy marked by Flames or maybe
that guy stole it from the other guy
yeah it could be a fish man I don't know
seems like it really could be anything
are you official tiger Fisher tiger died
from blood loss after being ambushed and
shot by Squad of maroon no he died oh
yes cringe
cringe
uh what what a cool good ones die
what a cool guy you know he was like
yeah I'm racist but
I get that I shouldn't be so I'm not
gonna let it not was he racist yes I
thought he definitely hated humans he
was he there's definitely a part where
he's like I hate humans I'll never be
able to stop hating humans because of
what they did to me but I understand
that like a future where humans and fish
man can like cooperate is like
preferable
so I'm probably not gonna like outlaw
them or anything he there was something
like that but yeah he himself was like
yes I cannot get over my hatred of
humans
he's I'm reading and it says even though
he hated humans according to Hancock he
did not discriminate against them when
it came to slavery and liberated every
one of them during his raid of marijua
that's pretty cool he hates humans but
he hates the institution of slavery even
more it was pretty reasonable
yes you did not believe in Revenge on
humans for the Discrimination he just
doesn't like him just he just is racist
against sure and I mean whom's Among Us
his compassion to humans was further
demonstrated when he vowed to take a
child who was a former slave back to her
hometown going as far as to Mark her
with his own Jolly Roger to lift the
burden of slavery off her back
yes I remember that koala was the name
of the girl right
right
a koala is in the Revolutionary Army
right she's like
um was friends with Sabo oh yeah that's
the girl
I remember now sounds right yeah
hey yeah
hey yeah koala
one piece let me let me
oh steampunk yeah that was the girl the
Fisher tiger
did something with
he brought her back to her hometown
despite being a lowly little human the P
human you ever watch do you ever watch
the English dub yeah like the four kids
dub you know that in the four I have no
in the four kids stuff in the four kids
dub Arlon calls humans P humans
because they stink get it
uh he would do that he would and he did
oh you can play as koala in one piece
super Grand battle X
I got a holy [ __ ]
bro
check this out you're not gonna believe
this
sigh
oh she's got Chopper aside oh her head
is way too big what's simsy saying
oh
[Laughter]
I don't understand
what is this little video
I don't know
oh that crawfish is gonna be delicious
though why did he jump in there he
didn't know what he didn't know what
else to do oh poor little that that's
actually really upsetting
seeing him like I'm just gonna go over
ah instant death
probably not that instant not instant
enough
not instant enough unclear if uh
mollusks feel pain or no I guess they're
not mollusks because they're crustaceans
I think I think Crustaceans might not
feel pain you know it makes me feel pain
that's bad enough
I I see what you I see what you mean
um
uh okay I mean pretty good one piece
this week yes I I guess it was pretty
good yeah it was shut up like shut up
with your your you gotta have blind
loyalty okay we have blind loyalty on
this show pretty pretty decent
um you know sure it was sure it was
scuffed and ode is a hack but I mean you
know what I I I've just I've just grown
uh I've just grown weary enough that
I'll just accept whatever slop I'm
giving oh cool uh the kuzan join the
Blackbeard Pirates uh the okay
surfing Oda whatever you say you know he
just you know he just thinks I'm a he
thinks I'm an idiot he's gonna
disrespect me like this but you know
what I like it now
um
briefly to mention is Beppo Beppo saved
Laura thanks Chopper giving him oh
that's too long
that uh okay okay before I'm uh
documented creation of a soolong ball or
maybe it's just a rumble ball
um that allows Beppo to go so long
without the moon okay Sue long is when a
um oh [ __ ] what are the main people
called is when a mink when it's the full
moon and the mink goes like hyper mode
yes okay so did did Chopper make a Soo
long ball for like carrot or someone did
he make one of these before no no this
is the first time we have seen the idea
of Chopper using technology to div to
put Soo long I guess this was developed
after wano before the three crews uh set
their you know sights for different
islands and left Chopper was like I
wonder if sulong could be like used more
than just the full moon I guess and then
he made that little thing
wow there's a little panel whereas Beppo
is eating something and he's remembering
Chopper
oh he's he's eating okay I saw the
little uh oh yeah he Chomps it he Chomps
it yeah cute little Chomp oh he's so
cute yes
and he turns into this giant flaming
bear Beast yeah it's really cool
actually yeah okay I wasn't sure what
was going on with the little Chopper
bubble
I see yes he made a he made a Soo long
ball of course
makes sense so Beppo saves the captain
yeah uh finally Beppo has done something
every instance we've seen Beppo he's
been like it's just standing there he's
just been a cute funny bear who's always
scared and and law presumably likes him
because he's cute
yeah and understandable I just
remembered because he mentions like the
freezing ports of the north blue because
he's from North Blue uh it's probably
just because law was in the cold area
and he met a bear
and a bear it was like oh oh I'm a
little bear and Lola was like oh join my
crew
and so they've been buddies forever
so this is this heartwarming
but uh also the his entire crew is
destroyed and his ship is destroyed and
lost fact but he's not dead he's not
he's not [ __ ] he's got Beppo he's as
long as he's got as long as he's got
Beppo There's Hope
yeah so the new heart Pirates are gonna
be bippo and Laura
um
there is that one guy you can see it
when the submarine is being destroyed
the one guy on the left with with the
hair with the hair he is the fish man
from
uh shabodi
I remember him joining the the the the
the the heart Pirates crew after being
saved by law during all that hubbub man
a submarine is awesome it is it's
awesome to have a submarine as your
pirate ship so cool pretty cowardly
though you can't show off your your big
flag if you're underwater
um [ __ ] off uh he's got it painted on
his side it's fine it's cool no you know
what he's he's not he's not bound by
tradition he he's thinking he's thinking
outside the box and I appreciate it uh
yeah damn now it's wrecked
like there's not more submarine type
things I wonder who built that
yeah
it does it makes you wonder why
why does he have a submarine why is he
the only one with a submarine what's
going on he doesn't need to like coat
his ship with like bubble goo to go to
fisherman Island he could just drive the
ship there
it's see it seems like uh the ship can
Surface like it's upside down in this
panel but it seems like there's like
Decks that you could stand on and stuff
like if it were if it were um so like
yeah it can come up and hang out on the
surface if it wants to I don't remember
seeing it before I'm sure we've seen it
before I just oh no we've seen it loads
of times yeah yeah I just I mean he that
was the shot that was the ship that
saved Luffy during the war at Marin Ford
right ah you know I just
so hard to keep everything sorted in my
mind uh I just I see this and I'm like
yeah okay I I don't remember but I'm
sure that that's what it looked like uh
it's it's cool I mean I don't think
we've seen it in a while yeah yeah I'm
just you know I look at this and it's
it's as though it were new to me and I
nod and I go huh cool ship yeah cool
ship too bad it's dead too bad oh well
um so yeah that was a good chapter
I await more
what's what's uh what's what's gonna
happen I mean well okay we've seen laws
fate law is yeah Blackbeard has
two
do you think we still don't know if law
like Luffy shared the one from inside
the uh the thing I guess I guess to keep
the stakes High maybe it was all three
and so they shared all three so now
Shanks Blackbeard and Luffy have three
of the four and they're all looking for
the mysterious man
yeah and whoever finds them first makes
sense would be able to get it I guess
that would that would make sense
um do you think
I mean kuzan is seems to have been
beaten or is I think the fight anymore
the fight might go on but I don't think
kuzan
there's there's two ways it could go one
is kuzan could ultimately decimate
everyone and then kill Kobe and that's
bad because it needs to escape I think
GARP might sacrifice himself to save
Kobe but I also don't know if kuzan
would want to go far enough to actually
kill GARP I don't think so I really
don't think so
uh but I think maybe to keep up
appearances he would do it if it if his
if his goal matters that much that he
needs to stay
like undercover that hard but like I
don't know well maybe that would be a
real that would be a real heel turn
moment for him that'd be really crossing
a line yeah
uh I think I think it seems like he's
done and it seems like his powers don't
work on GARP and like he hesitated and
it doesn't seem like he's he's fighting
at full strength I think
I don't know do you think GARP is is
GARP just gonna run wild and just like
beat beat the freaking uh crew I don't
think he he can't beat the entirety of
the Blackbeard crew other than like what
who he can't beat like four Blackbeard
guys no I don't think so
yeah especially since one of them is the
islands they're standing on
they're PR I think they're probably
gonna be I think probably because kuzan
is sort of throwing I think he's
probably just they're gonna get away
with Kobe
yeah I think Kobe is gonna be like
I don't know if GARP is but I think Kobe
is gonna survive yeah I could see I
could see GARP dying but not from kuzan
one of the other one of the other guys
might
might get them yeah and because I
wouldn't be able to help guard without
ruining everything for himself
possibly
well because um because
because GARP couldn't save
uh Ace
because he had to stand by to be like oh
I couldn't uh couldn't do anything they
were executing I just couldn't do
anything I'm a marine that's my job I
just had to just had to stand there and
watch and kuzan would be like uh well
I'm a Blackbeard you know I just just
had to stand there and watch while they
killed my old uh my old Master well that
was the brakes I guess
would kind it would kind of be uh sort
of fitting end for GARP in a way I guess
I mean carp's old
you know he deserves to Die
For Being for being old
um
yeah so
there's gonna be obviously Egghead is
probably what's happening we're gonna
focus on again after this
because black bear is on his way on his
ship
with probably every Blackbeard Pirate
that is not featured in this little GARP
mission
and they're going to a they're going
they probably have putting in the break
and they haven't seen Egghead in a while
it's been like three weeks uh yeah
well now
ah there's so much and then there's the
big Buster call there's the Anthony
Garcia what the [ __ ]
uh
Jay Garcia Saturn Jay Garcia Saturn are
they are they Buster calling Egghead is
that what they're doing they're they're
something cooling I don't think it's
literally a bus to cool but it's just
like a [ __ ] ton of battleships are
coming
yeah uh to destroy this island because
of information
given to them by
the big fat Vega Punk lady
she eats so much food and poops it out
nice nice if I got her name LOL uh [ __ ]
is it like
is it like Kato or like it's like a
four-letter word that begins with like
Ka
taro no
okay never mind I'm Googling it remember
remember everything York why do they
think Taro okay York right
um
all right good chapter very exciting
should we go into voicemails
um yeah yeah
yup
speakwap.com PCP voicemails
if you want to die
um
okay then the first one oh the first one
is called Beast capades late suggestion
are you ready mm-hmm
okay three two one go
this will be outdated already but uh
regarding the Beast capades
a gif versus
um PNG release format
I give you're wrong then you're right
you should just focus on one type of
release thanks don't divide your small
audience even further
um don't rely on multiple people being
like Oh I wanna I Wanna Be I want to see
that again and just put a lot of effort
into something that's
gonna satisfy two people
uh sorry if I this is too authoritative
um
that's fine you can do that I don't
remember what was the other point
goodbye yeah
um
uh I was
um I think probably making it as gifts
is just like it's probably better just
to not do it because it's like a it's
like a lot more work
and like does it does it increase
enjoyment for the reader like a ton
maybe sometimes but like I can just make
the panels look good
in a static format too yeah and that's
fine my my thing is still like
you might be making two people
more happy but if one of those people is
me the author then I would do it because
[ __ ] it
yeah I mean yeah
I
me as the author
yeah I guess like having it be exactly
the way I wanted it to be would make me
would make me happy but on the one hand
there's always going to be compromise in
anything you do nothing will ever be
perfect
and
yeah having making it one way
if I make it one way in static images
and then I go back and I make it again
in GIF form that even though I might
like the result that process is gonna
make me miserable sure because I'm just
be like I've already done it so I think
my my happiness would be decreased

perfect comic party static images is
what I'm gonna do for the time being
um next one is called slime and
Punishment book three two one go ah yes

Release
punishment as a goddamn a comic already
uh I've been waiting for a year I've
been I'm sorry I did some people to read
it as I borrowed it to them for a year
and they're still waiting uh besides
that I really would like them to
experience the game because I love the
game it's the main thing that makes me
want to buy this expensive desk thing
it's gonna be that expensive
unless you're foreign
make it obvious when
you could just play the game instead of
reading the Comic version
uh please and thank you I mean uh
bye-bye I mean there's a section of the
comic where the panels are
like game in-game shots so like yeah
it's really it's really clear what part
is the game and what part is not
uh it's like I think it's like 30 pages
or something it's like 35 Pages uh you
know I just got just this week it was
late I ordered from Etsy a piece of
fluorescent pink fabric to be my green
screen my black light green screen for
that shot I wanted to do for the um

now
I'm gonna finish that Beast of page
chapter and then as soon as biscuit pays
chapter is done I'm gonna film that
uh that uh that scene and try to make a
trailer out of it
nice and yeah I have I should have
everything I need for it now
uh pretty cool
uh you know progress continues even
though
never as fast as I would like next one
is called I am mean at the end I'm sorry
three two one go
ah about the
that guy that got canceled because you
asked for sex twice
um
yeah uh munchie no cheesy's description
of the facts

of a deal I don't know the facts either
I would have reacted the same as you
been thank you uh just letting you know
and I'm sure everybody else will there
everybody's just you know glad you know
just woke everybody's just woke
everybody's just
bust your balls a bit you know just yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah
uh it's fine don't worry don't don't
take anything seriously oh I oh I'm not
you know life is a joke
specifically yours this guy gets me
hmm who is this guy this guy's a this
guy's a genius
okay next one is called Chris land from
Prince isolation three two one go
all right Mr Mitch I guess I can do you
this one favor all right let me go up to
my bathroom and hmm
salachu Jack into my toaster all right
I'm on the bed
what's that Mr match
one more program to upload to my toaster
well I suppose I can I suppose I can do
that I could suppose I can upload one
more little little thing or whatnot in
my toaster
okay here goes or whatnot
I oh
what Mr match my house is on fire
I think it was a coffee maker I think it
was a coffee maker that Lit uh her house
on fire
that's um Mr
match is a guy from
uh Mega Man Battle Network he tells you
that he's good he's a bad guy but then
he tells you he's good now hey I'm good
now hey now that I'm good would you go
around and put all these programs into
all these important machines and then
you do it and then there's like ah it
was bad uh the place is on fire oh
everything's on fire uh your dad's in
the hospital La Mao gotcha gotcha
all right next one is called sick new
t-shirts three two one go
um you should make a t-shirt with the
new PCP like icon like the skull icon on
it because that's true bad as hell and
uh it it belongs on a shirt I think it
would work really well
um I've noticed that the old TPC logo
shirt has it as like just a really big
image on the shirt which I think maybe
would work better for the skull I don't
think it worked well for that one I
think it would have been better as like
a breast like the small image on the
breast area you know what I'm talking
about I know but for the skull maybe
that one would work with both of those
formats I don't know I don't know I'm
just I'm just telling you what I want to
see I'm just telling you what I want to
see so I can give you money you know
what I think he's right no reason not to
make a shirt with the new branding yeah
okay can I get it we'll do a cut because
I made the logo
um
artist privilege
[Laughter]
never mind I don't want to make a shirt
anymore I gotcha no shirts for anyone
next one is called WTF 321 go what the
[ __ ] Ben Saint how the hell did you look
at two thousand dollars for Americans
and think that's way too much Insurance
the stock market some [ __ ] deficits
he really said [ __ ] your rent and the
fact that you're essential in some ways
you're worse than Reagan and that sure
well I or two are already dead
2023 only
started and you're already making it
worse
Turtle face I promise to do that one day
I'll piss on Your Grave I hate you man
what do I do give and take
I don't know what I did I don't know
you're singing a song and I could not
for the life of me to figure out what
song was he talking about the covid
relief two thousand dollars for
Americans when when did I say that
wasn't that was too much
that's silly that's silly
um thanks for the voice
okay
I don't even know why why would you say
these things
um okay uh next one is called oh it's an
image okay let's take a look it's an
image
okay
it's Jesse serving me a dmca
I'm sure to win because my flange is
superior
it's just true it's just true
this is exactly how it it would go and
how it did go
thank you voicemail man
uh let's uh let's look at the next one
oh it's a anime girl of some kind it
sure is sure is it sure is I don't uh I
don't get it next one is called My
Darkest fantasy fugitive Ben Saint three
two one go
so um if you killed someone and
there was a dead body sitting in the
middle of your room right now
uh what would you do with the body and
then after that what would be your next
move and everyone knows everyone knows
that that person was at your house
hmm oh did you kill them that's the
important part
it doesn't say you killed them so I'm
thinking no you didn't
well if I didn't then I would call the
police and say there's a corpse in my
house and I don't know what happened
because then I'm like oh I reported the
buddy I didn't do it because I didn't
yeah
yeah if you just if you try to hide it
then you could get caught and then
you're it obviously implicated is the
culprit
let me listen again
no he does it if you killed someone oh
if you killed someone so if I killed him
um or her don't exclude
um
I mean I guess I would
I think
oh
okay
I think
that I'm not smart enough to like get
away with it
so so I think the move is
Pro okay the move is probably
hide the body as quickly as I can maybe
you know maybe bury it maybe maybe bury
it like that night like dig a hole and
bury it in the back here no maybe that's
even like two
I genuinely think
actually that I might just put the body
in my closet or something like put the
like because like people might see me
digging people might see me digging
whereas like if it's just in my room
like nobody's gonna come into my room
until like a police investigation starts
so I think I might just hide the body in
my closet
and then just like
get all my money
get all the money that I have like like
withdraw it from all my accounts that I
have access to and just like I put it to
bitcoin I put it into Bitcoin no and
just and just flee somewhere and just
like flee to I don't know Canada or
something uh you get caught in Canada
gotta go like to a small island in the
Pacific
um yeah maybe maybe the Philippines or
something
they they don't have American laws
I don't know how laws work I don't I
wonder if my oh I might need to renew my
passport I'm not sure if my passport's
still valid
yeah I think
the the move is hide quick quickly hide
the body
get as get as much of my money as I can
and just try and escape to somewhere and
and go off the grid
because uh I don't think there's any I
don't think there's any like getting
away with it
so you're you're resigning yourself to
the fact that people will eventually
find it and know that you were a
murderer so you can never come back
yeah probably yeah
I mean um
maybe I could um I mean maybe I could
try to make it look like an accident
would depend how I killed them
yeah I don't know I don't think about
this so I don't know what I would do
if I killed someone I probably I think I
think I think about it all the time I'm
always thinking about this
uh like if it was premeditated
yeah I probably would have already had a
plan but he's like yeah he didn't say it
was premeditated he you might have just
done it in the Heat of the Moment
and if that's the case
like depending on if I already I don't
know
like right now answering this question I
don't know if there's like
some lesser sentence I could get for
like oh it was just because I was really
mad because they beat me in fortnite or
whatever or whatever it was I think they
said I was ugly and I killed them I
think you would be I would still get
murder charge it wouldn't be a different
type of thing
unless I plead insanity but then I'd
have to prove that and I can't do that
that's hard
depending on how you did it you might be
able to get the charges reduced to like
manslaughter Maybe
like maybe yeah you didn't intend to
kill them I don't think I would be
emotionally or or yeah I wouldn't be
emotionally prepared to think about
running away forever
um I would yeah I would probably end up
serving some jail time
hopefully not the maximum amount you
would probably go to jail for years
I at least I don't gotta pay rent
yeah yeah yeah yeah hell yeah I mean
true I mean true they don't have
estrogen in jail though that's still
part of that part that's probably true
oh
prisons are woke now
yeah I think my move is to I think my
move is probably flee
honestly it's a better move than I'm
just trying to think how I would react I
feel like I wouldn't be able to handle
it I would [ __ ] break down like I get
it I get it I understand the fleeing
hiding them and then fleeing is like
well
that I mean that probably makes it that
makes my eventual sentence worse if I
ever get caught which I probably will
let's be real I'm gonna get caught
they're gonna come for me
may as well
have some maybe the move is maybe the
move is just just give up turn myself in
immediately
I don't know I don't know is that the
move
does that reduce the eventual
consequences
what if the person you killed was like
everyone hated them and you get a little
real real small sentence if honestly if
I think if I think if everyone hated
them like nobody like this person at all
yeah I mean I would probably still get
sentenced to something
but sentenced to uh partay if but if no
if nobody is like if nobody is like
pursuing this case like Noah there's no
one who's like really dedicated to
making this conviction happen I feel
like yeah it's probably I'm probably
gonna get a pretty light sentence
if I have a zealous advocate
yeah
so that would change things a little bit
I'd be like yeah I killed this guy
yeah but you know I said the moral
Victory though because he was a jerk and
nobody liked him yeah it was illegal but
you know everyone kind of wanted to do
it and everyone would be like yeah I
thought about it all the time Ben was
the only one brave enough to actually do
it
yeah
all right all right uh next one is okay
well the next one is a link and I gather
it seems like it's a link to
okay it's the mon Ben guys Channel
but what do I care about this guy's
YouTube channel
or Asawa
yeah I don't care
I don't care this guy said a YouTube
channel
I've never read any of this guy's stuff
have you uh no in fact I haven't even
really watched month and yet oh I keep
thinking I should I will I will but I
don't this is the guy he did a 20th
century boys and monster oh I [ __ ]
have read 20th century boys and I've
watched some of monster
I like his stuff you know 20th century
boys is really good you did did you not
know that that's the guy that hosts mom
Ben no I think I I think you must have
guessed you've explained it before and I
guess I forgot no
uh well I'm not I'm not super familiar
with his work outside of that
oh and then this is someone on my stream
was telling me to watch I guess the new
Urus Ura urasawa is the thing called
Pluto
and someone was telling me I should
watch Pluto
so I don't know
maybe I will oh it's on Netflix Oh I
can't watch it then
I have Netflix I don't have anything I'm
off the grid I'm off the grid in case
they ever kill someone and they need to
escape really fast so it won't be that
much of a culture shot
if you kill someone and you have a
Netflix account it's all over yeah look
that's how they'll get you oh but I
really want to watch but I really want
to watch Pluto though
he's signing in from Canada go go go get
him uh all right next one is called is
this the end three two one go
present Day present time ha ha ha

Jesse got paid from the radcon funds
which is technically true yes
technically yes we all got paid even the
people I don't like got paid from the
PCP from the radcon funds I couldn't do
anything about it
um
it's the end of an arc the end of an era
perfect comic party is the new arc it's
getting an ultra slow start sorry I
didn't get it done this week
that's okay I'm also been very sluggish
with everything so but you but I'm but
I'm I'm late now because the because
because the the next the Clarissa That
was supposed to be in the first one is
the one that you've already finished
right like you're already done yeah yeah
so I'm I'm late I've been late for hey
how many how long ago did we come up
with the idea for the perfect comic
party
uh I want to make myself feel bad for a
minute
um well I didn't really start
hankering down
on the Clarissa until March
oh really I think I think I think
February no it was February I was
drawing Clarissa
um
and
uh doing February during February
oh and I sort of stopped February and I
was continuing to draw Clarissa so it
must have been February or January the
end of January where we had the idea I
had the idea I don't know I think I
that's mentioned it that's not as bad as
I thought no it wasn't it was not last
year this is like a new year and oh
everything sucks
[Music]
right right
um yeah I was um
the goal the goal of the perfect comic
party is to be monthly
this month you know now it's been what
like almost three months since we
started to have the
started to have the idea
uh
I'm gonna I'm gonna be done soon
once it's once the content for the first
one is done
we'll get everything sorted out we'll
sort out the format we'll figure we'll
figure out
and then the next one will just be
just be content maybe maybe the second
one won't come out in one month but
it'll be like
you know we'll shoot for a month we'll
shoot for a month and we'll end Among
the Stars that's right that's right
um
a couple couple more biscuit pades pages
to go and then and then I'll be done
with this chapter
um
next one
oh a hopeful
next one is called this is not the end
we have hope yet three two one go
[Music]
wake up we are in big trouble
Dr wow we have spread roverly viruses
[Music]
into a Zone B with purple skin and green
teeth
what the actual [ __ ] get away from me
you
can bum you smell of beer and pee gross
go get a shower or something also acid
green tea thorough hip new thing and I
treat like Farkle a legally distinct
individual from recently deceased
Twilight Sparkle I'm always on top of
hip new things oh no so you are already
entail infected
yes I am indeed already a Rowdy [ __ ]
cucker and I cannot help with pcpf
session with comics in fact I will do
the exact opposite
I will send Maya Comet to the PC
in the very next
[Laughter]
oh no God no this is so tragic and
terrible I think the next the next
voicemail is a an image from drinking
moth
so I think this might be
these might all be from drinking moth
wow oh there's a five seconds of this of
this audio five seconds
you say oh right
ah
okay
oh it's a it's a whole comic this is a
real comic
uh oh okay stat static Dome profit Spire
similar City heart
should we read this
right I don't know if it's this is kind
of it's kind of long yeah this is very
substantial let's
I want to read it later I guess
because yeah we'd just be silent for a
while
although
that's how we do the PC the the pro the
one piece so I'm I'm not
how far Downs it go I think load 10 more
images I think that maybe okay holy [ __ ]
yeah it's quite it's quite long okay we
can't read it right now wait how many
how many pages does it have like a page
count oh it just keeps going oh God
there's ten more what is this like 30
pages
one two
three
four
five six
seven
am I crazy are these Pages really long
eight they nine are ten a little taller
than a four twelve thirteen
fourteen fifteen sixteen
Seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty
twenty one twenty two twenty twenty
three twenty four okay I think it's 24
pages
here's what I think here's what I think
uh
I do want to read this
I think
we should invite drinking moth to submit
this uh as a submission for the PC for
the perfect comic party and maybe we can
put it
wait is that punk no
no it's not there's Punk no she's just
orange no she's just orange oh
[Music]
I think we should invite drinking moth
to submit this to the perfect comic
party and then when we do like a uh we
can do an episode this was my plan
before we could do an episode where we
discuss the content of the perfect comic
party and then we can we can go over
this and other whatever else is in there
what do you what do you think about that
I think that is pretty good okay
and I agree uh drinking moss on the show
be nice yeah uh I think I've said it
before but I was re I was very impressed
with drinking moth
drinking drinking moth ended up I think
she ended up doing the most pages of the
eventual rad condojin and she did them
really fast like remarkably fast she
would have like the page done like the
next day
it was crazy
so I uh really appreciated that and I
thought her work was really good
and a reminder read the Doge and it's on
the PCP website in the stuff you can
download it and read it for free to see
more of her work and others as well
okay it's the PCP website up
yeah yeah okay yeah the PCP website it
is up
it is currently uh what's the deal the
the
um
yeah okay the dmca thing
my domains Saint Comics are on my host
and those have been hit with the dmca
the PCP domain is not on that host it's
a different host the files are hosted
with that host but the domain is with a
different
company and it just points to those
files so I just need to the the dmca
will I just need to put the files on the
new host so I don't need to transfer
domains for the PCP
website so that the reason why the saint
Comics is down is because the the domain
needs to transfer PCP doesn't need to do
that I just need to click around a
little bit and just tell it uh yeah
point point to a different
file location
uh so the PCP website is up for the
moment it will be down it might be down
for a day or two soon
oh scream okay
anyway
um I I
do not do not read drinking moths comic
do not read it until it is in the
perfect comic party do not do it uh
here we go next one is called BNG
appreciation hour
from
Prince isolation oh there is a voicemail
attached so let's listen to that three
two one go hi we're back with the bell
and give appreciation hour today I want
to show appreciation for the beautiful
artistic dynamic between the characters
of Ben Saint and give and take this is
only one facet of their fascinating uh
friendship and and character
relationship so uh enjoy this little fan
art piece I've made of of a very
important uh classic type of interaction
between the two you know
are you seeing this yeah I'm looking at
it people I hate ironic bigotry
semi-ironic nihilism something
absolutely insane okay
perfect Dynamic uh the perfect Dynamic
party
the the The Branding is just so strong
you can't help but say something like
that with that acronym
there's an alternate version
added
[Music]
uh
next one is cheesy audio appreciation
hour
okay uh from Prince isolation three two
one go yeah so I think that maybe I had
it right with uh with the weight I
published things all along really like
maybe maybe I should just keep
publishing like digitally and and and
doing pre-orders and stuff
maybe that just works way better I know
and I think that maybe uh you know maybe
I had it right all along I should just
continue to do it the way I'm doing it
because I mean I'm seeing that people
like people that are not like like me
that are doing it more like old style or
like they're just like kind of less
money in there
they're just like uh you know they
really uh I'm just wondering hold on
hold on
yeah and uh I think that maybe I
start
uh
oh uh oh oh
you make loud noises that much I don't
um I don't know I don't
I do think cheeses mic quality is not
great he needs a better mic
but in terms of like moving around and
banging stuff I don't know if he does it
that much
but uh
yeah I don't know
but it's okay because it said no hate
just love so it's fine yeah so it's fine
it's good it's fine it's good uh next
one is
oh I didn't download that one next one
is Ben appreciation minute three two one
go
so in preparation for the eventual
coming out of the perfect comic party I
finally decided to cave and sub to the
prestigious procrastinators podcast
patreon that's patreon.com finally
fascinators by the way
and in the meanwhile I've had the chance
to listen to some of the bonus content
featured there and specifically I was
listening to the commentary track for
the radcon 2 documentary and I just
really quickly wanted to highlight a
funny little thing that Ben did that's
very indicative of his online Persona
he's a director oh dear as you might say
so Gibbon is saying about davus she's
saying like you know devou uh she's a
little awkward and stuff but you know
she's interesting I like her she's
interesting and then there's a silence
and then Ben just says well
and I appreciated that the very top to
your hater behavior on your part Ben
okay bye-bye thanks
yeah I'm a hater
yeah whatever
okay next one is uh an image
wanna draw today not really
complacent Western artists third world
there's ears there and five dollars per
hour
[Music]
It Feels So seen
wanna draw today not really when would I
ever want to draw
I started drawing earlier
and I couldn't do it because I was sick
I would I woke up I woke up like
thinking that I was over my illness
and I sat down at my computer and I was
like sitting there just like freezing
and sweating and like aching
and I'm just like uh
I said I must have sat there for a
couple hours until I just gave up and
went back to sleep
and you know what the strikingly not
that not that different from a usual day
uh a non-sick day in my life
the results were largely the same
uh
um
God to to be a third world or eager to
earn five dollars per hour you know yeah
we should go live in the south of the
world that's the that's the play you
know ask ask not for lighter burdens but
broader shoulders you know the third
world that you could earn five dollars
per hour has the broader shoulders of
all
it's the dream
okay next one is um oh vvv comic from
Vinnie got to organize time better to
get these out sooner at loveview.com
well let's take a look
so awesome yeah treachery shall be
Avenged here by my Kawasaki blade I
remember that showing
previously on Vinnie's comic you've made
a grave mistake to choose this fight I
will not die here oh
with a sword like
trails
hahaha nice slash but that was made wait
but that won't make the cut yes true
what is this
gurgle gurgle this is eating through the
floor
whoa whoa
Creek shloop
[ __ ] you been saying thaw
Ben is he brace yourselves oh my God
Bryson it's a tiny Ben did something to
the air I can't breathe I have to make
this last move quick Shadow art dakusuro
wait what oh well so the kitchen I'm
using my Ramen still slurp oh the knives
are coming out oh
oh
simsy grabs them
so strong he's so strong and powerful
poof poof
slurp wait is this one flying towards me
Munch Munch what's happening this is
real good I wasn't paying attention what
happened to the knife looks like a pink
hand
oh
some yeah something called it
did you conjure an ethereal pink ghost
hand oh it's it's
the Rayman
my stand is Raymond because it's a
platformer I forgot the name
he jumped over the counter and what then
I melted the floor and he fell I used my
stand to remove the oxygen molecules
from the air
I made sure he'd end up unconscious one
way or another oh wait that's your
that's your line okay
okay okay
I have a little my little green goo
friend here
he's looking look he's looking
we're getting freaking Burgers I can't
trust Japanese food places
yeah that's probably a safe bet
blurio Ben oh good grief
[Music]
I messed with the layers at the top and
had to redo a lot but I got it out on
time for the next step open isn't too
sick to read his lines
not anymore I'm mostly fine
hey that was cool
yeah I like when I have powers
some of my little my little green I just
like the the little Squat and you're
just explaining and that's looking yeah
he fell I used my stand to remove the
oxygen molecules from the air down there
what what is my little green guy what
does he have like four horns
I don't know when was he first depicted
I don't I don't remember him looking
I don't remember one that looked quite
like this
just melts through the floor and snow
oxygen
it looks like it looks like he's in in
this one
when I said brace yourselves it looks
like he is uh like
extracting
air from through the floor like he's
or something and that's what he's doing
oh yeah I guess that the Vegas he's
getting the vapors out of the the
underneath he's getting vaporized
my mom's looking over again
lamal
that one that was a quick read it was a
quick read because it wasn't much
dialogue
hmm
but you know
action-packed
what was your was the Rayman thing is it
just I think it's
hands it it's separate my stand is a is
a Rayman but it's a rain woman
um
I vaguely remember thanks Vinnie
we love you
okay good next one is a quick question
from Prince isolation three two one go
hi so I was listening to the solo Ben
cast commentary Track by the way please
make another one there's a Squeakquel
right there uh whenever you get around
to it
um
I was listening to the commentary on the
solo Ben cast and Ben said there that
um y'all were thinking about maybe at
some point doing a uh behind the scenes
on the OVA filming and or radcon 4 uh
and maybe subsequently a commentary
track on that and you know I am just at
this point a total [ __ ] content to
listen to at any point during work or
whatever so you know is that still
happening
um should I look forward to that is that
shelved is that right
about it and apparently there really
isn't much like behind the scenes
footage
right
um well like yeah I guess I guess not we
didn't film like us coming up with
anything it's just sort of like outtakes
and
seconds before we said action that's why
it would be filmed during that time yeah
like the the OVA
I mean I guess I could go through all of
the the footage and like see but like
pretty much all the footage from the OVA
is like yeah it's just the shots that we
used in or that Nate used in the final
thing I think the the in terms of
commentary we already did a commentary
on the OVA which includes as much behind
the scenes stuff as we remember I think
yeah that's why I'm thinking uh behind
behind the scenes would just be extra
footage and I just don't know if there
really is is any I mean I have all the
footage I I saved it on a second hard
drive
I could go through it but it's funny
it's all in like one minute it's all in
like one minute long cuts
no there's not like none of it is like
long
honestly maybe we should have just
filmed it all in one long thing and then
chopped it up maybe it would have been
nice to get a bunch of like behind the
scenes footage of us just [ __ ] around
yeah I think they were just very we were
very like hectic on that day like we
gotta we gotta you know next scene next
scene I think when
some people were filming the rest of us
were just lounging around
for like uh we weren't in the shot but
we weren't filming that I guess because
we didn't have our cameras with us
because it gets Sandy if we had to put
them down
and we weren't wearing clothing so we
couldn't put them in in like Pockets we
were wearing bikinis right
we um
I suppose I could take all that footage
and put all the original footage in a
timeline and see like how long is it
and maybe there is extra stuff in there
I would I would have to I would have to
go through it
and see
uh maybe I don't know
if I if I found any interesting
bits of like oh this is this is us just
like fooling around that wasn't in the
OVA I mean yeah if there was a
significant amount of that yeah I would
be
fine with uh publishing it maybe as a
bonus content of some kind I just I just
have to see
okay next one I think you know I might
might take a look at some point good
good question next one is called Ben
speaks oh and it is just a image uh
image of chat GPT oh

GPT imagine a character his name is Ben
Saint he is a content creator

who is spiteful and who wants to destroy
other people's uh success online uh
write me a poem in write me a
non-rhyming poem write me a Manifesto in
the character of Ben Saint explaining
what he will do to you

a lot of this is very specific and

that chat GPT would just know these
things no they would have to I mean chat
gbt thinks that I'm the creator of the
