- Right guys, question of the week. And the question of the week this week was, what's the most unhinged excuse you've used to get out of work? Guys, girls, make sure you comment below. Rang my boss and said, if I come in today, someone's gonna get hurt. - Damn. - Yeah, it wasn't on it. It was something going on. - Shit, right. Most unhinged excuse you've used to get out of work. A bloke I knew,

was once so messed up on a saturday night out that he asked a random lady to call his boss and say that he'd been in a horrible accident okay oblivious to his lie and waking up hungover and late for work on monday you can imagine the confusion his boss thought when he rocked up big man forgot the whole team's pulled up to work boss is like what are you doing here

- You've been in a horrible, horrible accident Saturday night. - What are you talking about? - What? - I'm here bro. - What the fuck are you talking about? - What you been on? - A lady called me from your phone saying that you've been in a horrible accident. - Nah, check my call log bro. That's where he knows he's fucked up. - Yeah, 'cause he'll see it and he'll see the call log. - Oh, it's all flooding back. - Wow, wow, wow, wow. - I'm a liar. - Wow, I'm a liar. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't believe me. - I was on a bender the night before and I needed to sleep. So I told them my wife had a miscarriage.

Okay, what the? That's ridiculous. That's unhinged, bro. That's the definition of. The definition of. Oh my God. Yeah, crazy. This is disgraceful. The excuse that I wanted to use of I'm sick versus the excuse that actually came out of my mouth because I was so hungover and had no filter. I called my boss and said, I'm still sore from a weekend of shlong getting a hold of me. I need the rest so I can walk again.

- Yeah, yeah. Boss, I can't get in. I can't walk. Yeah, I've been getting fucked all weekend. I can't walk. I literally can't walk. - Literally, if I'm boss man, I'm like, fair play. - Yeah, fam, if I was the boss here and now, I know I would cross my legs like that. I would cross my legs, speak slower. - Yeah, fair play. Tell me. - Tell me about it. - Yeah, fair play. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Who was he? - Yeah, you deserve it. You deserve the rest.

Damn, I can't walk. - Yeah, I appreciate the honesty, thank you. - Damn. - What's the most unhinged excuse you've used to get out of work? I told my boss I'm at my other job that pays more than hung up. Can you imagine? - No, I can't imagine. 'Cause where do you find the audacity? Where do you find the audacity? - From the pay rise. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, 100. People, this is actually mad 'cause I'm the guiltiest of it.

People, well, we as a country have the weirdest mentality when it comes to jobs, I like. Like when you quit your job, you quit as if there's been smacking your mom every day. Facts! That's so factual. You applied for this job, you interviewed and begged me for it. And then you came here and I've been paying you for it. And then when you decide you're done, you want to tell me to fuck myself. What did I do to you? Facts. You came to me. Yeah, you begged me. You got suited and booed and begged me for the job. Facts.

I asked you what you said, where you see yourself in five years. You said, "Look at my body." So why are you not here talking this mess? Oh bro, jobs, I'm the worst for it. When I quit, bro, I quit with vigor. - I'm not coming back. - I'm never coming back, bro. Right, most unhinged excuse you used to get off work. I said that I got in a huge car accident and that I'll be staying overnight in hospital. My manager and some of my coworkers made a fund and they sent me $500.

Later on that day, I ran into my boss and his wife at a Lady Gaga concert. I didn't even bother showing up. - Oh, facts. - Yeah, I didn't even bother coming back. - You know you're charged. - Yeah, it's game over, bro. - You know you're charged. - It's 100% game over, bro. - That's jokes. Most unhinged excuse you've used to get out of work. He said, "I'm sex deprived and now's my only chance."

Straight to the point. This is immediate. You need to understand me. This is my only chance. She wants it now. Yeah, she wants it now. I have to go to her. I have to go. I have to go. I'm deprived. Dial tone. Yeah. Damn. I would appreciate the honesty. So I found this. I found this the other day on Instagram or something the other day. I think someone sent it to me.

And it literally says, it's a text conversation between a guy and his boss. I said, all right, mate, this is the employee. All right, mate, I'm sorry it's taken so long to get back to you. I know you probably think I've been on a bender with that money you dropped off to me on Saturday, but I had some bad family news that shook me massively, mate. Turns out me and my missus are related and now it's a fucking police matter.

I didn't expect you to say police matter. That's crazy. Turns out me and my missus are related. And now it's a fucking police matter. I fucked it as well because we was trying for a kid. Oh my God. I fucked it as well because we was trying for a kid. Do you still want me in today? Even though I'm on my final warning.

Wow. That's jokes. And then the boss replied, laugh at this, laugh at this. I thought I'd heard it all, Kane. I tell you what, Giza, don't bother. I'll be sweet. Sounds like you've got issues. Get sorted and drop me a message when your head's right. Bro. I fucked it as well. We're trying to break it down.

- Wow, that's funny. Now it's a policeman. - That's funny. Wow, that's funny. Fuck. - All right, I've got a few more. - Cool. - Most unhinged excuse you've used to get out of work. - I couldn't do another day in healthcare, so I slashed my own tires. - Oh my God. - One more from me. - Oh, cool. - All right, an ex co-worker started a fire 'cause she wants to go day drinking with her girls.

- Started a fire. - Started a fire 'cause you wanted to go day drinking. - Bro, I'm not gonna lie. When I used to work in an office, every time the fire alarm would go on, I'd pray to smell smoke. - You said this before. - I would pray to smell smoke. Please burn this bitch down. - Do you wanna go home? - Bro.

All I want is to go. I remember there was one time because I live far, I remember my boss teased me. It was lunchtime and it was predicted a snow storm to come in the afternoon. She pulled me aside, she was like, "Oh, I know you live like an hour away. If when snow starts to fall, I'm just gonna send you home 'cause I don't want you stuck here." I was like, "Cool, cool, cool." I was thinking, please, please. Brother, the snow never came. I was looking at the window the whole time like a puppy waiting for his owner.

The snow never came, bro. - Oh God. - Fuck, that's funny. Guys. - Girls. - Snatch update. - Oh, what I'd do for a monster. - Oh man. - I just want it. - Sorry, bro. I'm sorry you feel like that. - It's jarring because now it's not even withdrawal stuff. It's just, I just want it. Yeah, when I have the monster withdrawals,

If anything, that's better for me. Cause I'm like, this is bad for me. Okay. But days like today, I'm just like, I would just feel better and more engaged in what we're doing. If I could just slam one of those journeys back. I bet you. It would feel so good, bro. I'd be on like 10, 10 James. You need to find a way to get used to it, bro.

Well, then again, you are getting used to it just on days like... There are certain days and certain times you're like, fuck, I could use a monster. You're not craving it 24-7. Yeah, because it's not like a mood. I was using it... I feel like I was literally using it before as like a mood regulator. Like, just to feel something. And right now, I feel fine. Like, I know I can like...

I can chill and have a good day and everything's fine. But I'm like, but how good would I feel if I had one? I'd feel really good. What about taking pre-workout? That's too much. Okay. Yeah. What's the, like the milligram situation with the caffeine? So like a pre, so, so a monster we're talking like, let's say, I think a monster is like 150 milligrams of caffeine, a strong, healthy pre-workout. We're talking 300. So I could take a pre-workout now, but also that means I can't, you can't take two pre-workouts in a day. You'll die. Oh,

- Okay. - So I want to take one before we go to the gym. - Okay. - So yeah, I wouldn't dare tease one now and then try and double up in the gym. That's scary. - How are you feeling when you were taking your pre-workouts with monsters? - Bad. It's not good. - Why were you doing it then? - 'Cause I need, 'cause I don't know if you can understand, I was numb, bro.

I was numb bro. My caffeine receptors were completely fried bro. - Damn. - It wasn't doing anything. I needed more and more and more. - Damn bro. - Yeah bro, it's dangerous. It's dangerous to fucking around with caffeine bro. It's dangerous. - I don't touch caffeine. - Yeah, I know bro. And what, since I've been off the monster, people are like, "I've been hitting bro." - I bet G. - "I've been hitting bro." Like I'm talking like G-spot hitting.

Like, bro, I've been in there. I fucking bet, bro. Oh, I've loved it. I've loved every second of it. I have a confession. I slipped up on my diet. Not like sweet wise. Okay. I've not had a sweet in two and a half weeks, three weeks now. Okay. But there were two nights when we games rematch. I think both nights, both rematch nights. I ordered McDonald's.

But the first night I ordered two grilled chicken wraps. The second night I caved and ordered, they've got a new burger, like a big warp or something. - I want it. I see adverts everywhere, you man. I've seen adverts everywhere. - I got that and nuggets and I was like, fuck sake.

'Cause I needed something. I had no pre-prepped protein. Everything was in the freezer, so I was like, fuck, I just got off too late and I need something to eat. But I would say, I can't remember what it's called. Is it Big Something? - It's called the, like the, I can't remember what it's called, but I keep seeing billboards on it, bro. It looks good. - Yeah. Whatever it's called, it's gash. - Oh really? - Yeah, it's so, I feel like it's one of those burgers that's trying to find its own identity, but can't find it. - It's just a mixed match? - It's a mixed match and I'm just not a fan. - Damn, 'cause it looks good, bro. - It does look good, it was a waste of my time.

- That's good though. - It was a waste of my time. Yeah, I'm happy like I've had two McDonald's back to back last week and I was disappointed in myself. - Fair. - And it's not gonna happen again because I'm going to make a solid effort to try and meal prep. So if I game, I know I've got food for afterwards. - Okay. - I'm just not doing that again. - Two nights on the road is atrocious. - It is atrocious, James.

I was so disappointed in myself. And there's no even like, there's no swings and roundabouts. I can't say, oh, because I've been drinking water, not having sweets and all this bullshit, been doing my walks, that means it can offset with a two footer. It was bullshit. But what I would say,

went back to tennis last week for the first time in like three weeks because of my bus up quad and best session i've ever had really best session i've ever had when after we did like the warm-up rallies he was like bro you sure you're not gonna play and i was like i ain't played shit i ain't played shit bro it was really really good um and we were trying to learn how to serve or you're trying to teach me how to serve for like the best part of half an hour most difficult thing

Serving is difficult, bro. Oh, bro. I don't think you're under any illusion that it's not. Serving is difficult. So yeah, I've got footage of that on my, cause I vlogged that for the first time. Oh, amazing. Nice. I vlogged that for the first time. So I'm going to do it again this Friday. But bro, that was difficult. But yeah,

when I say I was sweating buckets afterwards, for like, I was sweating buckets more than usual. And I got on the scale after my tennis lesson and I've reached my lowest weight I've ever reached in terms of like- - Like weighing yourself as an adult? - No, not necessarily to weigh myself as an adult, but like intentionally training to lose weight as opposed to losing weight because I've not been training. So my lowest weight was 97.2.

And I started on 99.9 three weeks ago. - Wow. - Holy shit. - GGs bro. - Fair fucking play. - GGs. - I'm getting there. - That's dope. - Gang. - I'm getting there. - Yeah, my week's been cool. My week's been really cool. I didn't train as much. I've been busy. Didn't get to train as much as I wanted to. Even those two days in a row where I was like gym today, didn't happen. But I train four, I still train like four or five times.

I trained, we trained together Tuesday. Well, we went to the gym on Monday. I just stretched, I remember. We trained Tuesday, Wednesday. It was a good session, by the way. It was a good session. We trained Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday, I think I just went for a walk. No, Thursday I went to the gym. I did abs and stretch. And Friday I did tennis. So Saturday and Sunday I didn't go to the gym. But I walked on Saturday. Walked on Saturday. And Sunday I took my day off. Gang. Gang.

- Yeah, I've done like five sessions this week. I'm feeling good. I've done something to my back from time ago. It's been bothering me for- - The same disc? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's been bothering me for ages now. And it's from that one, I think I told you, man, I had like a really, really stiff back and then I knew I shouldn't have done a heavy leg session that day. And I did it anyway. And it's just been finished from there. - Okay, James, why haven't you seen someone since? This is a serious question. You've complained about this.

I can't even say the number so many times. Why haven't you done anything about it? - Okay, okay. Realistically. - Yeah.

- It's only been an issue. So I've obviously complained about it for years, but I haven't complained, you probably wouldn't notice, but I haven't complained about it in about a year. And I think I told you before, I'd started to implement like back squats back into my routine. I was able to do all these things 'cause my back has been absolutely fine. It's been fine for a long time. And it was different in terms of where I said,

Any back issues that I've been, any back issues I've been complaining about for like the last year, I've been like my mid back here. - Okay. - Which is like a struggle sometimes, but that's just like, I don't even know what the fuck that is, but whatever. It doesn't bother me enough for me to seek help. It's only when I like load up my back, like real heavy with weights that I'm like, damn this fucking hurts. But my disc thing, I haven't felt in like over a year and I've been pushing, pushing, pushing things that I haven't usually been doing. Like when we're doing like trap bar deadlifts and all this kind of shit and like anything deadlift,

back squats, I haven't done those in years intentionally because my back's been bad. And I've been for the last like few months, I've been pushing them back into my routine and I've been really enjoying it. And it was just that one day where I woke up, had a really bad night's sleep on a shit mattress. My back was killing me. And then it was leg day and I was like, fuck it, I'm just gonna ignore the pain. Heavy back squats, hack squats, leg press, all the things that curve your back. And since then my back's been finished. Seeing someone,

I did have a massage booked a few weeks ago. I had to cancel it for work stuff.

The reason I don't see people is because I feel like my schedule is so all over the place. Yeah. Week after week, I get so frustrated with, and it's the same thing I had with my therapist. So frustrated with booking and things in advance. And then on the week, something fucking happens with work and I have to cancel it. And I have, it happens so often that I just get myself into a mental place where I'm just like, I'm not booking nothing anymore. Okay. And even in days where I'm like, I'm definitely home this week so I can do this. It always changes all the time. And I can't, it always ends up being like a one-off.

Like, oh, this week on a Thursday I can do it. But the next week something happens and the next week something happens. Like this week we're working every single day. So it's another one of those things. - Fair. - That's why. - That's fair. - But it's not, it's annoying, but it's also not a good enough excuse. You should put me on my spot because at the end of the day, it's like, if I wanna fix my life,

I can say all these, I can, I don't like the fact, I don't like hiding behind excuses because I can say, yeah, because I'm busy and all this kind of stuff. And then you could be like, okay, and then I'll just sit here with a sore back. So it's like, cool, if I'm going to complain about it, do something about it, regardless if you're busy. But anyway,

That was that. Snatch has been really, really cool. We dropped our gymnastics episode the other day. We did. And that was a lot of fun. That was a lot of fun. That was a lot of fun. Might be one of my favorite episodes we've done, period. Yeah, same. 100%. It was... I watched it back and was like, literally in pieces laughing. In physical pieces laughing. I saw you analyze my fucking vaulting on your stream. On the stream. It's the...

When your legs got caught on it and then you fell forward. Yeah. Hands down, top three funniest things I've seen. I'm sorry. I had to watch it three, four times. I saw. I saw you say it. I had a feeling because obviously we'd come off stream. I had a feeling. I bet he's watching my stream whilst I continue this. I bet he's watching my stream. I did. And yeah, it's...

- It was fucking funny. - Yeah, it was. - It was fucking funny. And obviously, yeah, my first one as well, I got the stick. My first one was the worst. - Your first, oh. - My first vault, 'cause I went first in the vaults. - Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - And then yeah, I went face first, bro. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember that, bro. - It was a lot of fun. - It's a good episode, man. - Really, really, really good episode. I really, the father enjoyed it. The feedback's been really good. And we have a trailer for you guys if you're interested. So that's now. - Today, we are doing gymnastics. I want to end today knowing how to backflip.

- That's not looking easy. - Felt something. I felt something you man. - Oh my God. Yes bro. - Cool. So that was gymnastics guys.

So since everyone has been training, eating well, drinking water, doing your walks, this, that, and the other, and doing whatever it needs to be to get yourself fit for summer, it's a question for you guys, questions in the audience, write in the comments below.

Is there anything you guys will continue to do once the 60 days are over? Is there anything you will keep like implementing into your routine? - For me, two things. One I've mentioned, I'm cutting down my monster addiction. 100%. 100%. That has to change. Two, the whole, obviously I haven't touched. So this is what week three now. I haven't touched yeast and dairy once.

I've not slipped up once. - Nice. - It's not past my lips and I felt great for it. - Nice. - I feel so much more energized and just light and like whatever. - Nice. - Like that I feel like I go through my day, so many days where I'm always, I'm always thinking if someone pulled up on me,

on a beef ting, what kind of position would I find myself in? - Okay. - I think about that like all the time. So if we've done a heavy leg day and I barely walk, I think if someone tries it with me, what am I gonna do? - Oh yeah, okay. - And then like, yeah, if I'm like, the amount of times I think, if someone tried it with me right now, what would I do? And I think, bro, like I'm bloated and I feel uncomfortable and I would never feel at my best. Since cutting out that, I always think, if someone tried to run out, I would be like light on my toes. - Okay. - I'd be light on my toes. - Nimble. - Yeah, nimble. And I'd be thinking, yeah, let's go, bro. - Okay.

So that makes me happy. - Nice. - So the yeast and dairy needs to stay out. It's really difficult though. - I bet you. - It's really, breakfast is a fucking nightmare. - What are you having for breakfast? - I've just been having like protein shakes at the minute because it's just the preparation is just boring, bro. It's just boring. And then like, it's fine once I've got, if I've got like meat and eggs and shit in the house and I've got time in the mornings to cook, calm. Days like today,

So write off bro. Even when I'm looking online and all these things that I can order, bro, all of it, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread, bread. It's all fucking bread. - Of course. - It's jarring bro. - Of course. - But that, if I can keep the dairy and the yeast out, I've been having, I think I told you as well, the last thing I would say is the, actually two more things, fuck. It's basically everything, sorry. I'm waffling. The exercise every day, I've realized when I'm not going gym, my routine is fucked.

and I should be going to gym every day. And I realized the session that we did last Monday, which was just like an all rounder stretch core thing. I was, I was, bro, I was mertz afterwards. It was very good. It was like really intense, like cardio stretch, like core training, everything. It was really intense. And I was sweating and I was mertz and it made me feel so much better. And I was like, this can be a gym day. This is like an active recovery day. I need to be in the gym every single day. I agree. That was really nice. I'm keeping that. And then lastly, I think I've been told, telling you every day I'll have like,

my like mineralized water, like hydration water in the morning with some amino acids, with some creatine and I'll have like five to 600 milliliters of water as soon as I wake up with that. And it's been making me sharp and nice bro. - Nice, nice. Speaking of hydration guys, we have partnered up with Heights. So I took my Heights hydration this morning on my way to work.

- Painting on the Whoop Snatch community. It's going well. - It is. - I woke up the other day and I was 561st in our leaderboard. Kick in the face. - Bro, there was a week, I think a week and a half ago, I was on my walk and I was just looking through the chat. They were calling you out. - Me? - Yeah, they were saying, "Where's James? James has never been in the top 100. Where's he at? Foo had to kill him there." - Yeah? - Yeah, bro.

Where am I today? Yeah, bro. James has never been in the top 100. They were gunning me. Are you serious? Mothers, bro. I was at my wall. I couldn't bring it to your attention. Okay, I'm 272nd today. Okay. If I can get good sleep again because I'm on a... Okay, fuck this. So right now, I'm on an 85% recovery and 93%...

- No, sorry. 93% recovery, 85% sleep. And right now I've got no strain. So if I can smash strain today, I should wake up tomorrow and stop 100. - Okay, cool. - On an 85-93, if I can get like a 12 to 15 strain, I should wake up tomorrow and stop 100. - Oh, we're talking then. All right, say less. - They said you touched 100. - I'm getting 100 today. - They said you touched it. - Okay, I'm getting 100 today. - Yeah, they say you're sleeping bro. - After I train bro, I'm gonna check and I better be in the top 100. - Yeah, they say you've been sleeping.

- Are you fucking serious? - All week bro, I said you've been sleeping. - What? - They said you ain't moved bro. I was on my walk, during my walk I was looking, I was cackling, I put in a chat, "Ha ha," and kept it moving. - You contributed? - Yeah. - Yeah, I said it, I said it, I said it, I said it, I said ha ha. - I was like, "Ha ha." - Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, no, I'm getting top 100 today. Are you fucking mad? Chase has been sleeping. - All week. - All right, say less. Cool, cool, cool, I'm getting a 15 strength today and we'll shut these fucking bitches up. - Let's go. - Fuck that.

- That's another thing I've decided. - What? - I'm done pretending I'm not petty. I'm done pretending I'm not- - Be your true self. - Yeah, I'm gonna be my true self. - Okay, fair. - That's 100% it now. - Fair play. - Because people paint me with that brush anyway. And then anything I say, I've been seeing recently, like I get loads of messages, especially with this Snapchat stuff that's going on. Like people are picking apart anything I say and they're like, "That's the petty one." There he is.

He's rearing his ugly head. Here he is. Anytime. - That's the petty one. - Yeah, bro. Anytime I try and be like, oh, cool, cool, cool. No, no, no, no. Like it's all supportive. We're all there together. One thing I say, it doesn't, it can be anything. It can be the way I look to my right. Everyone's like, there he is. There he is. He's trying to hide. There he is. He can't help himself. So you know what? Fuck it. I'm doubling down, bro. And I will be in the top 100 today. And I will, whatever the fuck we do in snatch, I'm winning. I don't care.

That's it now. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of it. I'm winning now, bro. I don't care. It's over. Say it with your chest, man. Say it with your chest. But yeah, anyway, it's been fun so far. It has been fun. Make sure you, if you guys want to jump in the community, make sure you guys jump on join.woop.com forward slash S-N-G. S-N-G. And if you want to be part of the community, if you want to be active, if you want to talk to the other paintings, the code is on the screen right now.

Back to the question. So Ellis, what are you going to be keeping post snatch in 60 during your lifestyle routine? I think definitely exercise in every day. Okay. Yeah. Cause I used to think, oh yeah, you need a rest day. You don't.

you don't need a rest day stop being a get up like you don't need it even if it's um even if i'm knackered yeah cool go for a 45 minute walk yeah still walk you know what i mean so yeah um i think definitely the exercise every day i don't think my diet's that bad anyway i eat pretty cool like with my dinners and that i see like salmon and veg and nice so uh yeah i think the exercising every day i think that's the main thing this steps is cool and i'm doing it for this challenge

If I'm being real with myself, I don't think I'm going to keep the steps up after. I'm just being honest with myself. I don't think I will. But yeah, as long as I exercise every day, I'm not really up for it. I'm happy with that. Karl? Rem? For myself, I guess more functional training. Okay. Yeah. Everything I've done up till now has either been just playing sports or straight sets in the gym, bodybuilding.

It's boring. It doesn't offer anything. It's not fun anymore. So yeah, more exercises to improve how my gameplay would be in a sports situation. So more sports specific movements in the gym to help with whatever scenario I want to achieve. I don't know. But jump, standing broad jump, anything that can be applicable to

being a better athlete than a, than just a bodybuilder, you know? So yeah, taking a step away or not stepping a step away, but just turning down bodybuilding, but athleticism up. Definitely something I want to do. Very nice. Nice. Nice. Nice. Yourself? Uh, for me, I'm definitely going to keep walking. Um, I've enjoyed walking just around my area. I can walk for hours now and I enjoy it. Um, I would definitely say, um,

I am a lot more conscious of my water intake because obviously I told you, man, I've got an app. So I just fill that out every day. So there were like yesterday, for example, I had 1.5 when I was guided. Damn. Yeah. So it's like being more cautious and conscious of what I'm ingesting that way. And I would definitely say, I would definitely say training as well. Like, even if, like you said, we went to the gym on Monday, we didn't do any like hardcore exercises. We just stretched and yeah. And it felt great. So yeah, I would say definitely those three.

Okay. But yeah, let us know in the comments guys what you guys are going to keep from this Snatch in 60. Right, Ellis, you had a random question for us? Yeah. I thought about this the other day. I don't know why, to be honest, but I thought about it the other day and I just thought I'd bring it up. So with AI developing. Oh gosh, yeah. Don't worry, it's not a rant. With AI and that developing, yeah, eventually, let's just be honest, there's going to be like sex robots and stuff, yeah? Hopefully, yeah. Yeah, it's going to happen, yeah? Yeah.

They're going to simulate girlfriends and all that sort of stuff. Okay. My question is, right, if your missus ordered an AI sex bot

for her would you class that as cheating yeah yeah 100 do you class it as cheating yeah because technically it's just a sex toy yeah technically you're right it is but like ai is built to like impersonate people like especially if it's a robot so it's gonna have if it's not gonna have personality but it's going to have a form of personality what if she was like

it moves in that like a human, but she was like, "Oh no, I've coded it, so I've muted it." - So it doesn't speak, it just bangs her? - It just bangs the shit out of her. The shit out of her. - Nah, yeah. - I could, I don't know. Okay, at this point, I wouldn't class it as cheating, it's just like,

I don't know what I'm bringing to the table. - I'm any guy. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I'm any guy. - I don't know what way is up anymore. - She gets her satisfaction from metal. - Yeah. - Not from me. - Damn. - Yeah. - I was just thinking, I was like, is it cheating? Like do you class it as cheating? 'Cause it's kind of human, kind of not.

- Damn, it's a good question there, Ellis. - I was wrapping my head on the train. I was just thinking about it. - I don't think it's cheating 'cause you're not betraying me. - Yeah. - Yeah, you're not. - Emotionally, you are. - Emotionally? - Yeah. - Yeah, 'cause. - What emotion? - She values something else. - Yeah. - Yeah, but it's the same as a sex toy. - Is there emotional attachment? - How can, no. It's mute, it doesn't even talk. It's just a sex toy. - That doesn't mean that he can't be.

- That doesn't mean that she can't be emotionally attached to something just because it's muted. - What emotion is she feeling? - Well, we don't know. - I'm inclined to agree with Rem. - I'm asking you a matter of question. You're saying there's an emotional attachment. I'm saying what emotion is it? And none of you man can tell me what it is. So how do we know there's an emotional attachment? - Okay, we're speculating there could be emotion. 'Cause if she's bought this toy, then she's definitely bought it for a reason. If she bangs it once, for example, and she enjoys it, she's going to keep banging it. - Yeah, same as dildo.

Yeah, but with Dildo, you have to, she's doing it to herself. But I understand your point, but. - Okay, so what if it wasn't a deal that you do for yourself, it's one of those automated ones that you can just do it. - Them fuck machines. - Okay, let's just take it up. Dildo, you have to do it yourself. Let's say they invent another one where it's the same, it's just like, it's got its own little platform and then she doesn't have to do it herself. - Okay. - Okay, so is that cheating?

No. Okay, so then we've got that and we just build a fake body around it. Yeah. Now it's cheating for some reason. I think because... It's a personification. I think there's a percentage of cheating there because...

it's replicated the whole thing yeah yeah i get it it's a personification of personification is what i'm looking for and it's based on this conversation we're personifying it we there's no claim that she's personified it you're saying there's an emotional attachment you're saying there's potential emotional attachment this is all based on your personification i'm assuming it's an ai robot as in in human form yeah it is but what i'm saying is right the personification in terms of i've just said it's a building around it oh i know i know why there's emotion because it's persona because

If it's in human form, then in my opinion, I feel like she would have bought it personalized. So every AI robot isn't going to look exactly like the same AI robot. She's going to personalize it to her taste. I was saying what I was saying based on it looking like Sunny from Flippin' iRobot. It looks like...

- So I wasn't even saying it based on like it being personalised. - That's scary. - If that's what she's fucking, I'm out the door. - Show me who you're for. Let me know she's still real. - That's what I'm saying. I wasn't even going that far. I was saying it's a basic robot that she's chosen

over you, even if it's muted. - Yeah, that's what I was more with you and the robot thing. You're talking about big black scary man. - I'm talking about like, that she's customized. - That makes more sense. - I'm thinking like 50 years in the future. - Okay, cool, cool, cool. If you're talking about that, then yeah, obviously that's ridiculous. - Yeah, but if we're talking this, okay, I'm more inclined to do that. - Okay, cool, yeah. If we're talking, yeah, customized,

skin looks real. And she's picked it based on what she's attracted to. - This is where the personification comes in. - Then obviously, yeah, you've created a replacement man. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And he doesn't look anything like you. - He doesn't talk back.

- Yeah, yeah. - You're dreaming. - She just fucks her. - Yeah, bangs her bro. - How would you feel if she designed it to look exactly like you? - That's even worse. - That's even worse. - I don't know if it would be a mistake. - Why not? Because you are right there. - But who's to say that she's not using me to my limits?

Let's say she's built this one that looks exactly like me and I'm buying it now. But afterwards I need juice. But she's thinking, I want more. I want more. - Wait then innit? - She just tags bro. She don't wanna wait. - Wait for me. - She doesn't wanna wait. - Nah, wait for me fam. What is this? - What if she wants seven rounds a day? - And I can only what, give five?

- Let's be serious. - Let's be serious. I don't know who that was for. - Two and a half. - Yeah, let's be serious for a second. - Three max. - Three max on a great day. - If you space it more than even a night. - She wants six, seven bro. You're six, seven. - Jesus Christ. - Fine, whatever man, two and a half. - Two and a half, she wants seven.

- So she wants a taggy and broski. - Yeah. - Fuck man. - And it looks exactly like you, the tool is based off your tool. Exactly the same. - That's hurtful man. - Why is it hurtful? - I don't know, 'cause I would feel lesser. I know I'm giving two and a half, she wants seven. I don't know what the agreement was at the beginning of the relationship, whether that's changed or not. That's different, that's a different tangent.

I just feel like I would feel lesser next to an AI version of myself that is giving more. - He doesn't break a sweat. - He says I'm not and I'm not and he's banging. - And he doesn't change. She likes that consistent rhythm. When she's close, he doesn't break rhythm. He strides going bro.

- Nah bro. - But he doesn't have the warmth that you have. He doesn't have like the human. She knows it's not real. It's just a nah, it's a glorified wank. It looks exactly like you. You don't necessarily need to feel lesser. She still prefers that. She still takes your two and a half. - Rounds. - Yeah, rounds. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. She still takes your two and a half rounds. - Fuck. - Yeah. - Yeah, it wouldn't sit well with me, man. - You'd be okay. - I don't know if I'd be okay. I wouldn't feel great.

- I know I feel terrible. I'm just gonna- - Yeah, it wouldn't, no, don't get me wrong. I wouldn't enjoy it, but yeah, it's like, I wouldn't feel lesser. - Okay. - I wouldn't, this is not fun. - I think after a while you will, bro. - Why? - Because it's, this is not gonna be like a one and done or she's gonna practice this or sample this for like a week. This is her long term. Like you're staying with home girl. So it's like, yeah, every, it's gonna get her into a routine where

She knows the position you want a nut in. She's like, "Oh, after you flip me a fucking flat doggy, we're tagging Broski in, 'cause you're done." - Yeah, see what I'm saying? It's contextual as well. - You're done. - Are you, am I, oh, is anyone, are we present? - While she's getting clotted by Broski? Probably not. - Yeah. - Who's to say? - But she probably uses him when you're not around. Same way they have a wank. - She needs the fourth. Wogwan now, you just said, she needs a fourth now. She don't wanna wait for me. Do you wanna wait for you? Then Wogwan. - Yeah, but that's just rude.

- This is where I'm coming from though. - Yeah, but that's what, no, because that's now it's like, now it's crazy stuff. - That's contextual. - I'm assuming any girlfriend we've ever had or any wife that you're gonna have or whatever, I'm assuming they play with themselves, right? - Yeah. - They don't do it as soon as you finish banging them and you're walking off and she's like, "Well, I want a nut again, so I'm gonna go." They do it in private. And I would assume that's how this continues. - You said she don't wanna wait. I just went for that. - Yeah. She don't wanna wait.

hours and hours for you to recuperate. She's gonna get her nuts in when she gets her nuts in, how she gets her nuts in now. - Would you be okay if she used the Donny first and then you after, as opposed to Vivi? - I think I would prefer that. - The warmup. - Because she's like, she's prepping herself for a main event. - That's what you're prepping, mentally saying. You think you're the main event. That's what you're saying. That's how you wanna approach it mentally.

- If that's how I wanna approach it, then that's how I wanna approach it. Either or, I'm looking for positives in this situation. I don't need the raw, I'm looking for positives. I don't know what else to say. It's the same about, there's also a vice versa, right? You could get a home girl that's just for top. Your girl could not wanna give you top every day. - Top's different, I think. - I don't think it is. - I think in this instance, top is different. - Why? - Because I feel like

with Top, like you can't, for one, there's not gonna be any gag reflex with the AI thing. - That's gonna bother her more. - Yeah. - This is why it's different. Like Top and pussy are two completely different things for me. - Yeah, of course. - And comparing the human one to the AI one, two completely different things. So I feel like dick for dick is the same thing. The only difference is he doesn't lack stamina. - Yeah. - So I just don't think Top is a fair thing. - What are you trying to say? I don't understand. - I'm trying to say that if I only had

and AI drawn just for top, I think that will be an argument. - Oh. - More so than. - Okay, yeah. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I think that's just a no-no. - Okay. - You see what I'm saying? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - She won't allow it in the yard. - Yeah, right. - Because I'm gonna be addicted if the throat is throated because I know what her throat feels like. And I know what this AI throat feels like. It's gonna be a no-no. So yeah, it's never gonna work.

- It's gonna be a problem. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - It's gonna be a problem. - I'll be addicted. - It's gonna be a problem. - Fuck, bro. - Yeah. - Ah, that's funny. - Good question. - That's actually funny. Good question. Damn, man. - Yeah, interesting. - Damn. I couldn't, no. Realistically, no. - What about you? You didn't say it. You didn't answer. - I wouldn't care if one, it doesn't affect my sex life with my missus. - Okay. - And if it looked like me.

And I'm not, I'm not fucking, it's not a freezer. I'm not, you know, I shouldn't be there. It should be, oh, Ellis is at work. - Yeah, I'm bored and horny. - Yeah, take him out the cupboard and yeah. - What if you're driving home one day, and you see her in like, seeing your front room. - Silhouette. - Silhouetting, and it's just her, you know, dodged. - Yeah, I'd be like, oh, Jesus Christ. - The position ting is mad for me. You don't need to be doing positions.

In my opinion, this should be a means to an end. That's where it would bother me. - So just like missionary and- - Yeah, yeah, yeah. The same way that she would not now.

- Just like- - Or if you can only nine doggy. - That's what I'm saying. If you can only nine doggy, then you're only doing doggy. This is how you get your nut as fast as possible. - You walk into Libero, she's on managed. - Yeah, you're not, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

- But she's got to use it in a way that doesn't affect how you feel. - No, no, no, no. She has to use it in a method of I'm using this to nut. I'm not trying to make love to this thing. - She's not trying to make love. She's trying to switch a few positions. - No, she's trying to nut. That's my boundary. My boundary is you're using it to nut.

So that's it. 'Cause there's no other reason for it to be here. Because then that's when, in my opinion, where we do creep into the emotional thingy. 'Cause if you're not even trying to know, then what are we doing? - Imagine you get home one day and they've like had an update and now it's not mute anymore. It starts talking. - It's gone. - Yeah, but you won't know though because you're awake. You see what I'm saying? She only unmutes, she pressed that unmute button.

- When you're out? - You never know. - You're never gonna know. - You never know. - So what do you mean imagine? I don't know, what are you asking me? - I don't know to be fair, I'm just speculating shit. - But it would bother you. So it would bother you if it can talk then. If it's got a bit of personality and a bit of charm. - The whole thing would bother me. - You come home from work and like you can hear on the other side of the wall like,

Like you can hear it talking. - It can't speak gamer now. - Oh right. - Yeah, no. - Yeah, but it's AI, it learns shit. - Yeah, of course. - So it just knows her well. It just knows what to do. - It knows her well. - Yeah, it does, yeah. It learns from her. - It's been studying her since the day she switched the bitch on. - Cool, I have a question for you quickly. - All right. - So obviously we went to watch Chris Brown yesterday. - We did. - It was a good time. - It was. - Great performance. - Great. - Really, really nice.

What are you doing? And what are you walk on? I just know where this is going. Okay, cool. All right. Yeah. Obviously, bro's renowned for his meet and greets. Yeah. Yeah. What are you doing? If let's say we get

We get tickets to go see him. And when we check and they're like, oh, they're throwing in meet and greet tickets. That's cool. So we queue up and we're waiting in line. And every girl in front of us is doing the most. It gets up to your turn. You pull up and bro's in autopilot. - So he just assumes. - Yeah, he's in autopilot. You walk up to him. He grabs your throat, tilts your hip forward to your, things like that. And a photographer goes snap.

- Yeah. - He grabs your jaw here, lifts you up, 'cause he's taller than us. Lifts you up like that, grabs just the base of your spine, half of the top of your bay and pulls you in. - I know that position. - Arches you like that. - I know that position well. - Yeah, he arches you in. - Almost on my tiptoes. - You're on your tiptoes, arched like a little mermaid, arched. He looks you dead in your eyes and then just lets go and waits for the next one. - It's too late, yeah. - Snapped, they move you one.

- They move you one, what you doing? - Like this camera's right, I'm running to a smack on the ground. I promise you. 'Cause I can buy another one. So all the previous pictures, that's their business. I'm slamming that camera to the ground. - It's auto. - Oh, so it's straight to the screen. - Just like on a roller coaster. It's auto. It's straight on the screen, bro. It's auto. - I'll scream Chris!

- Bro, does security have your arm and leg like that? Like we saw Bro getting carried out yesterday. - They'll have your arm and leg. - It drapes me out. - Bro, yeah. - Nah, man, I'll be so angry. I'll be so angry. Like, what's all this, man? - Shade room, snag it. - Oh yeah, I'm done for. - Yeah, there's nothing you can say. - There is nothing I can say, man. 'Cause it's so annoying that I know it will happen to me 'cause I went first.

- Do you see what I'm saying? Like, because I know it's crazy because after he does it to me, he snapped out. Cause I was like, oh shit, I was annoyed. - Oh shit, my bad. It just dabs you and then dead. - But that picture's already gone. It's on the internet. - Yeah, it's on the internet, bro. - It's already there. And then your one is just going to be like a, because he's clogged. - Yeah, cause I'll tell him don't do anything like that. - Don't touch me. - Yeah. And I'm just cool. - It's annoying because my reactions are quick. So as soon as he like tries to draw from my foot, I would have smacked his hand. But in this scenario, he's already done it. So it's annoying. - Yeah. It's game over, bro.

- It is game over. - Would you come on here and try and explain yourself or would you just not want to shed light on it? - I think this is too pronged because if I don't shed any light on it, it's- - You're confirming it. - I'm confirming that I agree to this. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, 100%. That's why you paid for that ticket. - Exactly. But if I do shed light on it, I'm shedding light on it. Do you see what I'm saying? So it's like, it's a double-edged sword, man.

- And the more I try and double down and try and explain myself, the more it's gonna seem as if I'm just a liar. - Yeah. - 'Cause the comments are gonna fight back like, why do you say nothing? - Yeah, bro. - 'Cause it looked like you enjoyed it. - Yeah, yeah. - You were on your tiptoes for fuck's sake. You see what I'm saying?

Why didn't you take another? I don't have the time to explain all of these things because you weren't there. Yeah, yeah, 100%. You didn't see me get touched. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, fuck that. What about you? What would you do? Knowing me, I would just shut down. In the moment, the whole like smacking the camera, causing a ruckus, I would shut down. I would shut down. Wow, it would really...

- If you're not beating the alligator, I'm never getting out of it. - Oh, you're definitely. - I'm never getting out of it. The most I can do is put it behind a paywall and hope for the best. I just hope for them to say there's more where that came from. I'll put the picture as a thumbnail on Patreon and say there's more where that came from. - Okay. - And hopefully make a bag, disappoint people 'cause there's not more. - Oh yeah, yeah. - And then be like, see? I had no part to play in this. - Fair, fair, fair. - Or just say it was a bit or something like that. - Fair. - Just get away with it. I would have to double down and be like, that was jokes, right?

That was really funny that Chris agreed. Thanks Chris. I'll be like, thanks Chris to agreeing to play into this little thing. Like he's a really good sport. - Fair, fair, fair. - Stuff like that. And I'm hoping there wasn't enough galley in the queue to make up the comments to prove me wrong.

- 'Cause that's the thing, 'cause if it's behind like a screen where it's just you, the cameraman and Chris and no one else can see, then you can get away with this acuting where everyone could see you charged. - Yeah, 100%. - Charged. - 'Cause it always takes one comment with enough replies of being like, "That's not what happened." - Yeah, I was there. - Yeah, he came in, tried to dab in debt, Chris grabbed him like a bitch. - Yeah, let me show you. - Yeah. - I've got the POV. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, 100%.

- James was stumbling. And then when he let go, he didn't even say thanks. He didn't say anything. He didn't even be from about it. He just shut down on the screen, just brushed him off. - Yikes bro. - Yeah, it's terrifying bro. - It's terrifying. - Ellis, he had the crowd in a literal choke hold last night. - Seriously. - The trance. - Yeah, trance is right. - Who's more better with the crowd in that Osho or Chris? - Chris. - Is he? - Chris is. - Is he a lot more smoother?

It's not even smooth. He doesn't pay... Usher?

plays into the audience a lot. Like he makes this whole thing about like me, you, we're here together and the women are just losing it. Chris doesn't care about you. Chris could, they had a stage here and a stage here, right? And he had some zip line thing to swing them over here. I promise you now, he could have said, stay there and he would have walked on girls' faces from one stage to the other and they would have thanked him for it.

He could have walked on all of their faces over there and they would have been like, thank God. And just have a boot print on their face and just like, thank fuck for that. This is the best day of my life. Yeah, yeah. It really was insane. Aura. Next level aura, bro. Fair play.

- Daddy fantasy? - Let's get it. - So long story short. Oh yeah, and I told you basically, that's it, that's it, that's it. I told you Zayden has a second signet and he can read, he's got the illegal signet and he can read people's intentions. I loved reading that. That was a twist, that's what I read on the plane. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So she's got his second signet, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

Sexy bro Okay So anyway From now Lock in Because there's a lot to say Okay And spoiler alert I know all of it's spoiler But fuck me Yeah Right so anyway So As I said He's told her he's got a second signet He can read intentions Etc etc etc And They were getting attacked By Bear Wyvern and Venin innit And then they've She's put up her own wards In Arisha Where he lives And all of the

All of the Wyvern just died. Okay. On the floor. So they're like, all right, cool. We've got this, we've got that, et cetera, et cetera. And then they realized...

that all the Venin and Wyvern are attacking Berskayeth. So they don't want obviously the academy to be burnt to the ground or whatever kind of thing. So basically Violet was like, I'm going. And her brother Brennan and Zayden were like, no, you can't go, you can't go. She was like, you man, I'm fucking going. I can't let all these students die. They don't know what's about to happen, et cetera, et cetera. So they fly to Berskayeth.

there's Baradun man, they land there and they're like, you need to protect your wards, you need to protect this, you need to protect that. And Lilith is there, Vard's mom is there. And she's like, what are you doing here? You're a man of traitors, blah, blah, blah. She's like, bro, your wards are gonna be under attack, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And they're like, no, they're not. Like they can't, no one can get to them. No one knows where they are but me and a few of the other generals.

it's protected, protected. They're not gonna be able to get there. And plus the Venon can't even get past the wards to even think about getting to them. Violet's like, please fucking trust me. We need to go down there and check, bro. So they bop down there. Lilith's like, fine, whatever the fuck. Let's go check the wards, yeah?

Walk, walk, walk, walk, walk. Takes them into these dungeons. They see this huge ward stone, bro. And everything's like, cool. Like, is this what you were worried about? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. As they're walking, getting closer and closer, they see a dragon in there. And they're like, what the fuck? So all of them are like, what the fuck is a dragon doing in there? Violet's like, I know that dragon. It's Jack Barlow's dragon.

Because remember I told you they revived him. So it's Jack Barlow's dragon. Jack Barlow comes from behind the rock, like Wa Guan. He's got Venin eyes, bro. Jack's a fucking Venin, bro. He's been a Venin the whole time. Oh, damn. Yeah, he infiltrated the whole academy, bro. He's been a Venin the whole time. Oh, shit. And his dragon swings its tail, breaks that ward down. Wards go down, bro. Shit. Yeah, smashes that bitch on the floor.

All the Wyvern now can just attack Berskive, bro. They're defenseless. Oh, shit. Yeah. Bro, it's nuts. So Dane and fucking Violet kill Jack Barlow. Yeah.

Oh no, they like stab him or some shit. Kill his dragon. What it's going to say. Adana, that's Adana's was, was down there with them. 10 was somewhere else. And Donna was down there with them. Okay. She breathed fire at him. It was, yeah, that's the first time she breathed fire. Okay. It was sexy. Fair, fair, fair. So anyway, um,

They get that, they beat Jack Barlow, and Dane read his mind and was like, they're all waiting outside to fucking- Dane read Jack's mind. Jack's mind. He's like, they're all waiting outside. They're all going to attack us. There's hundreds of them. Fuck.

There's hundreds of them. Like we need to like prepare. So then the main, main general, General Melgrin, I think his name is with his big black dragon Kodak. - Yes, that's the number one dragon. - Number one dragon. All of them, Lilith, all of the people, all of the riders, all of the Berskaith all come together to protect themselves against the Wyvern. Long story short, it turns into a scrap, you man. A fucking scrap, bro.

I can't get into the details, but there's too many details bro. 10 kills like 20 of them. Violet goes, "Gazin, gazin, gazin." And obviously her mum can control the weather. - Oh yes, I forgot about that. - And Violet's powers are stronger when it's raining and stormy, 'cause she uses the clouds as extra focus for the lightning. So she's like, "Mum, please." The mum's like, "Say less."

Thunderstorm, bro. She's like, cool. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. Lightning, lightning, lightning, lightning, lightning. It's wham, bro. It's wham. Tan's fucking up other Wyvern, bro. It's sick. And then there was one sick moment, bro, where Violet lands. One of her boys gets his, I'm not gonna say who it was, gets his leg chewed off by a Wyvern, bro. So she's on the floor trying to protect him. Save him. One of the Venian drops down and he's like, what a bitch.

"You're the one that the main buyer wants." Violet's like, "What?" And she's like, "I'm not allowed to kill you, but I can do whatever the fuck else I want with you." And she chokes her up.

Anyway, Violet kills that one. And then another Brer comes up. Another Venon is like, cool, cool, cool. You're mine. He's way stronger. Chokes her, everything like that. She's looking off in the distance because she's told Andana to hide because she's not big enough or strong enough to be scrapping about this thing. She tells Andana to hide. She looks in the distance and she can see a mountain. And all of a sudden this huge rock falls off this mountain, right? She's like, what the fuck? And she's like about to die. Bro, the rock...

Literally, she said the way she describes it is this rock falls off the mountain. As it's falling, wings come out of the rock, fly straight down to the Venin, land behind the Venin, fire bursts. Bro, it was Indana because she's turned black now. So she can just camouflage, bro. And then Violet's like, what the fuck, bro? I thought you were part of the mountain. She's like, bro, I told you I can hide you. I've been here the whole time. She thought she dipped.

Cause she said, hide, get away from this battle. She thought she did. She'd just been camouflaged on the ting, bro. Safe violence life. It was wham. Sick. Yeah. It was fucking wham. Okay. Anyway. So now she's trying to think, oh, we need to put the, um,

We need to put the ward stone back up. So I don't know if I got into detail last time. In order to have a ward work, you have the stone and then you need six dragons from all the different colors of dragon. You need to put fire in it. But only one dragon can do one stone. So for example, Ten did the one that she did in Orisha. He was the black dragon for that. So Kodak needs to be the black dragon for this. Okay.

Because they're the only two black dragons. Okay. So Kodak needs to be doing this one. Okay. And basically, long story short, they fix the war zone. They need to start putting magic into it and then they need the fire. Lilith has already told, Lilith had already told Violet before this now, your war zone is not going to work. And then she's like, why, why, why, why, why? And she wouldn't tell her why. She was like, you'll find out one day, but your war zone is not going to work. So,

She's like, whatever the fuck. And she's like, mom, we can fix the stone and we can do this. She's like, you can't fix it. It's not gonna work, blah, blah, blah. She's like, mom, trust me, we have to. They're all gonna kill us. There's thousands of these Wyvern. You have to trust me. So mom's like, all right, bet. So they run down there, fix the stone and then they need to put magic into it in order. So you need to basically, they say in there, it needs riders to slowly imbue magic into the stone for literally weeks.

to get enough magic for it to be like a working ward stone. And they don't have weeks. And in order, what it would end up doing is in order to get enough magic in there, a rider from one rider would have to burn out entirely to give it all of their magic. So they're down there.

And what's ended up happening is while they're down there, the King Donny of the Venon has pulled up. And just, well, actually no, he pulled up just before she'd run down to the war zone. Is this the same Donny? Cause obviously, you know, I said I was listening to it. Is this the same Donny where in book one, where they're fighting them?

when they got ambushed and he's like cloaked. He's got like a cloak. Different cloak. Yeah, yeah. So since then, where you've left off, she's been having dreams about him. Okay. And in her dreams...

he always catches her and he's always like, "I've been waiting for you. You're the one I want." So when she got caught earlier before N'Dana killed her, they were saying, "You're the one he wants." She was like, "That can't be true, bro. 'Cause I've been dreaming about that. That can't be true. This must be a coincidence thing." And then obviously another thing is like, "You're the one he wants. You're the storm wielder or whatever the fuck like that." And she's like, "No, no, no." So Violet's panicked, bro. So anyway, her and Zayden and her mom and everything have seen him now and he's about to attack.

And then Zayden is like, you man go fix the ward stone. I'm a deal with Broski. It was buff. I'm a deal with Broski. And then Vyla's like, you can't. What the fuck are you talking about? Yeah, he's a big boy. And he's like, how do you know he's not just gonna fucking kill you? And then he says, because he's here for me. And Vyla's like, what do you mean he's here for you? Because she thinks he's here for me. And he's like, don't worry about it. It's here for me. He's here for me. So they're down now trying to fix the ward stone.

So anyway, bro, it's crazy. They go down there, her and her mom all go down there, et cetera, et cetera, while they're down there.

Vardar's like, I need to fix this, I need to fix this. And she can feel in her connection with Zayden that Zayden's fighting Homeboy. And then she can go in her mind and she can see through. So Scale was in her head and then Scale's like, he's fighting, he's fighting. And then she can feel his shadow presence like getting smaller and smaller. So she's like, he's fucking dying. So she looks in her mind's eye and can see through Scale's eyes. He's dashing shadows at Homeboy. He's like, boom, boom, you're boring. Boom, boom, boom, you're boring, mate.

You're a pussy. Boom, boom, boom. Zayden's like, your mom. Bah, bah. Rah, rah, rah, rah, rah, rah. He's never faced a challenge like this. Yeah. Rah, rah, rah, rah. Shut up, shut up, shut up. And he's like, you're boring, you're boring, you're boring. And then he's smacking Zayden. He's toying with him. Yeah. Smacking him about Zayden's rot. And he's like, stand up. Stand up. And Zayden's like, bro, I'm close to burnout. Yeah. I'm close to burnout. Yeah. And bro's keeps toying with me. Yeah.

So anyway, they're going at it. She's like, fuck, he's gonna die. So then Violet's like, fuck that, Zayda can't die. She starts risking burnout to put all of her power into the wall stone. Because obviously, like I said, they need bare rhythm to put the power in. And as this is going on, ah, fuck, I missed a bit, sorry. Before she goes down there, she's like, I can fix the wall stone, I can fix the wall stone. I told you, her mum's told her, your wall stone's not gonna work. Yes.

And she had someone, they had two journals, right? Okay. From the original six. Okay. Who said, oh, you need the six dragons from each color to put fire into it. And that's what makes it work, et cetera, et cetera. Her brethren, who has been deciphering another journal, Mm-hmm.

was like, there's something wrong with our journal. The six is not a six, it's a seven. 'Cause it's in an old dead language. She was like, it's not a seven. So Violet's like, that's impossible, it can't be a seven. And she's like, it is, it's a fucking seven. And there's like, but there's not seven races of dragon. So what are we supposed to do? And she's like, I don't know. So anyway, she deep something. So-

she doesn't speak on it but she's like I've did something and she tells Kodak I need you Ten's done the other one I need you to come with me and blow fire in this one Kodak's like it's also illegal to talk to another person's dragon yeah so Ten was like don't fucking talk to him he's gonna kill you she was like I have no choice and then she says to him but even as a reader you don't know what she's talking about she says to him I know you know

come with me and blow this thing. And I'm not gonna tell anyone what I know, but you better come with me. So she's, he's like, all right, cool. And Dan's like, what the fuck? Cause this thing that she's talking to Kodak about, Tan doesn't even know. So she's pulled up and then she's like, it's seven, it's seven, it's seven. Long story short, they get down there and she's putting her power in and she turns to Andana and she's like, Andana, I know. And then Andana's like, what are you talking about? He's like, I know. And he's like, well gone, well gone. What do you know? And then she's like,

The whole time since you were gold back in the day, I've seen your scale slowly change. Every time I look at you,

you're a different shade of black to tan. And it's not making sense. And I've always wondered the way the light reflects on your scales, it's not making sense to me why you look different. But I thought it's because you're young that you would turn into a proper black dragon. And then she starts smirking and she's like, swear. And she's like, you're the seventh. Apparently there is a seventh color of dragon, which is like a dark purple that they're like unicorns. They're like unicorns.

a crazy rare breed that no one even knows about apart from the dragon elders. So even Tan didn't even know that this type of dragon exists. So Adana is the only one in the entire world. And there's, she apparently is,

she intentionally didn't hatch for 650 years until she heard the other dragons talking about Violet and how she's the like weak daughter of a fucking, she's like one of a kind rider. She shouldn't be alive. And Adana was like, that sounds like me. I'm one of a kind, I'm this, I'm that. I think I found my person. So, and Adana actually hatched literally to be with Violet. - Okay. - So bro,

Valis putting all of her power in it. Valis like, as soon as the power's done, blow your fucking fire on this thing. I need you, Kodak and all the other colors to blow this thing on here. And I promise I'm not gonna tell you a secret. But she's like, goodbye, this is the end. I'm gonna die. I'm gonna burn out so Zayden doesn't die. So they're putting her and her mum Lilith's in there, innit? And she's like, what the fuck are you doing? And she's like, Violet stop. And she's like, shut up, mum. - I know what I'm doing. - Yeah, I know what I'm doing. She's like, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop. She's like, I know what I'm doing. I know what I'm doing.

So then long story short, she's doing that. She was doing that. Do you remember Liam's sister? Yes. The one that hates Violet. Yeah. Yeah. She's learned to love Violet now because Violet gave her a bunch of Liam's letters and each one of Liam's letters, Liam's always like, oh, Violet's so cool. She's this. I know you're going to have a grudge against her, but she's cool. She's really, really nice. She's not her mom. She's not this. So anyway,

Her power is what they call a siphon. So she can draw power from anything else and put it into something else. - Okay. - So... - Same like Brennan? - Same like the guy who saved Brennan's life. - Yes. - Ten's old rider. - Yes, yes, yes, yes. - Before Violet. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - I'm listening, man. I'm listening. - So she has the same power as him. - Okay, cool, cool, cool.

Lilith clocks it, can see the Violet's about to die. Grabs her, Sloane has her name, grabs Sloane and was like, "Put my fucking power in that stone right now." Sloane's like, "You're gonna die." She was like, "My daughter's about to die. You better fucking do it right now." And Violet's like, "Mom, no, don't you dare." She's like, "Fucking do it now. Do it now, do it now." And basically Violet's burnt out, but there's not enough power in the stone yet.

So she's like fucking Sloane, do it now, do it now. Smacks her, do it now. Sloane's like, I'm not gonna do it, I can't do it. Violet's like, don't you fucking dare do it. You'll kill my mum, don't you dare. And then Lily's like, shut the fuck up. Isn't your brother Liam? She's like, yeah, my brother's Liam. She was like, that means your mum and your dad were such and such. And she was like, yeah, they were my parents. She was like, I killed them. I killed them myself. I fucking loved it. I loved it. And I made you and your brother watch. It was hilarious to me.

It was fucking hilarious to me. Those pathetic, and their screams, chokeding, funny. And Sloane's like, what are you doing? And she's like, take my power now and put it in her stone. And she's like, I can't. And she was like, I've murdered your whole family.

I'm the reason that your brother got killed. I'm the reason I sent his ass even though she didn't. She was like, I sent his ass over there to be killed. Joking, you and your whole family are fucking jokers and your dirty little Mark Breeds, bro. You're all butters, bro. And then Snow's like, yeah, yeah. She's like, yeah, bitch. And she's like, God. She takes it. She takes her power. Never speak of my brother like that again. Takes her power. Lilith drops to her knees. Powerless.

Powerless bro. Drops to her knees. Slams the power into Warstone. Warstone kicks up. Kills all the Wyvern bro. Kills all the Wyvern. Venena drained out and they dip. So that's the end of that story. Lilith dead bro. Violet's barely alive. Brennan's barely alive. Zayden's barely alive.

And they're like, guys, we did it. We beat this battle, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So then at the end of the first book, they did a Zayden POV. Yes. They do another Zayden POV at the end of this book. Okay. And it starts off when he says to Violet, he's here for me. So the last chapter is Zayden's POV of he's here for me. Yeah. And then his battle. And then his battle with Homeboy. Interesting. So.

- Interesting. - Yeah. - Basically before we cut to Violet's POV, Violet sees Zayden, he's kind of beat up at the end of the battle. And then Violet's like, "What happened? "Obviously we saved the, I did the war zone." And Zayden's like, "I killed him." And she's like, "You killed him?" And he's like, "Yeah, I killed him."

It was a tough battle and she's thinking, "Big man, when I checked the mental thing, you were murked. How did you manage to kill him? But obviously you're my man, so I'm not surprised. Yeah, you're the shadow daddy. I'm not surprised, but damn, I'm impressed. That's the king of the fucking guys. You murked him, that's insane." And he's like, "Yeah, I murked him still." But Zayden's rocked by it and she can't understand what's wrong with him. He's just won a serious battle. I don't understand.

So anyway, cuts to Zayden's POV. We start the chapter. He's here for me. Violet's thinking, well, I'm the one that's been having dreams about him. So how is he here for you? Cuts to Zayden's POV and he's like, I know he's here for me. And then she dips and he's like, this is the in my dreams every night. So he's, Zayden's been having dreams about him as well. And then Zayden's, in Zayden's dream, he comes for him and, um,

their battle and everything like that. So he knows. So anyway, cuts to that. They're fighting, fighting, fighting. All the while they're chasing Scale. So Scale can't help him. He's fighting, throwing shadows. Your mom, throwing shadows. You're a pussy. Smack, smack, smack, smack, smack. Knocks him to his knees. Zayn is like, I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. And then...

The Venians like, they call him a sage, innit? The sage Venians like, bro, stand up. You're weak, you're weak, you're weak. And then Zayden's like, bro. And then do you know what he says to him? He's like, bro, I can't wait to kill you and go and kill that little girlfriend of yours. Then he's like, stop. You're taking it too far. And he's like, bro, I can't wait. Your weak ass is gonna be gone and I'm gonna have fun with her. I'm gonna have fun with that little violet. That little storm will die. I'm gonna have fun with that. That power.

So then the guy's like, do it, do it, do it. Zayden's like, shut up, shut up, shut up. And he's talking about what he's been telling him in his dreams every night. He's like, dude, I think I've been telling you in your dreams every night. Do it, do it, do it. Zayden's like, no, no, no, no, no, no. And then Scales like, don't you fucking dare. And then it's cuts to his mind and he's like, I need to say Violet and I can feel all this power beneath me. So then Scales like, don't you fucking dare do it. Zayden's like, I've got no choice. Zayden turns Venin.

takes the power from the earth because that's how they get their power. They take the life out of everything. He turns Venin, takes the power from the earth, kills the sage guy. Jesus. Yeah, that's how he killed him. How does he turn into Venin? Bro, he could just feel the power and that's why the sage has been going into his mind. So apparently, apparently the way people turn Venin is they have an uncontrollable need for power.

- Interesting. - And then once their uncontrollable need for power gets to a certain level, they can feel power in everything. And then they can start taking the power, just draining it from stuff. - Fuck. - Yeah, so Scale could feel that he was getting there. And the urge to save Violet, he knew he needed power to save Violet. And that urge to save Violet was giving him the power to sense the magic in all the earth.

So when Violet's thinking this guy's about to die, he's getting murked. And then all of a sudden he's killed him. It's because he turned Venom and just took the power. This girl was like, do not take that fucking power, bro. You'll turn Venom. And he's like, I have no choice. I have to save the love of my life. Took the power. Murked him. Murked him. Damn. Yeah, bro. And at the end, they cut down now. He's not told Violet what happened. He's not told anyone what's happened. Scale, he's told Scale, don't you tell anyone. He's gone. It cuts to his POV to end the book. He goes down into a dungeon. Um,

and he sees Jack Barlow in a prison cell. And he's like, how do I get rid of it? And Jack's like, there is no getting rid of it. - That's what I was gonna say. - Yeah, bro. - So wait, what was the communication with Zayden and Violet when Zayden told Violet I've killed Donny? Was this telecommunication or was it face to face? - It was face to face. After the whole battle's done. - But doesn't he look like Venom? - Nah, not at the start.

- No, the start is they get the more powerful they are and the more they've drained from the earth and all that. That's when they start to turn. So right now she can't tell. - Preliminary stage. - Base level. - So he's vening. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Base level. - Okay. - Base level vening, bro. And now he's done it once. That's it. The cycle starts. - Yeah, okay. - And now he's gone down to Jack and be like, how do I cure it? And Jack's like, joke team, bro. You don't cure it. You just get hungry for it.

Book ends. He goes, I guess we're all just part of the same fucked up family. Book's done. Yeah, bro. That's a good ending. Yeah, it was a good ending. The plot does take in. Yeah, it was a good ending, bro. Zadien's turned Venom, bro. And he, like a vampire, he wants it gone. And then, yeah, Jack was like, you're going to get thirsty for it. Fuck. Interesting. Yeah. Very interesting, bro. Very, very, very, very interesting. It was juicy. All right, man. So, yeah, that is The Last Daddy Fantasy 4.

And as I said, I'm not gonna start on next storm. I'm gonna put that off until Rebecca starts dropping some new scripts on us. So next Daddy Fantasy will be the start of A Court of Thorn and Roses. So I'm gonna start that like today, get a couple days reading time in and then next time we record, I'll have my first update for A Court of Thorn and Roses. So I'm gassed.

- Cool. - Yeah, I'm gassed man. I'm definitely considering this book club situation. - Fair play. - I think I might do it. But we'll see how this book series, I think there's like five of these jaunts. - Yeah, so I've heard, yeah. - So I'm gonna have to, yeah, really, really go for it. - Yeah. - But no, those two books, fantastic. - Fair play. - Fantastic. - Fair play. - I'm gassed. - Fair play. - But anyway. - That was an ending. - Yeah, it was bro. - That was an ending. - Bro, how do you get rid of it? - You can't bro, you just get thirsty.

- Damn indeed. - Right guys, we're gonna charge it there. Thank you very, very much. That was a fucking fun episode. - It was a fun episode. - As always, get your whoops guys, get involved with the Smashing 60, get your heights. - Come on. - And- - Don't forget the rules. - Don't forget the rules. And yeah, let's have some fun with it. Love, love, love. - Gang, gang, gang.
