Back to the episode. When you guys have to like do an intro on YouTube or something, do you already have it like-
like pre-registered in your mind. Cause for me, I always need like a hand movement when I'm talking on YouTube. - You do that a lot. - Yeah. - I got like the Lego brick and I can like visualize myself building the sentence like a bridge as I'm going across it. - That's way too cool. - That's like an artist mentality. - Well, but like I'm saying the word I'm like already like planning the next word. I'm not like,
I'm not like thinking about what I'm saying right now. I'm thinking about what I'm saying in like five seconds. - You're preloading. - Yeah, I'm trying. - Yeah, I can't do that. - God, I wish that was me. I was like, sometimes, especially on stream. - I'm like procedural generating. - I wasn't able to do it until I started voice acting. Voice acting helped me do it 'cause I had to read ahead to see the word to get the emotion.
'Cause you sometimes wouldn't get a chance to read a line. You'd have to just do it. - Yeah, sometimes, especially on stream, I, you know, sometimes I think I know what I want to say and I start the sentence and half the time I'm like, damn, I put those words together. Holy shit. - I'm good. - I'm good. - Me when I say a sentence without um. Damn, he's good. Damn, this guy's good. - He's a professional. - Damn, he's good at this.
All right. Welcome back to another episode of Trash Taste. We are joined once again by Emily. Hi.
- Hi. - And the boys, Joe and Garnt, who are here. - We're here, hello. - Now, why do you think that instant ramen is better than real ramen? What's up with that? - Wait, we're going straight in? - Wait, what? - I just had to ask, 'cause it's pissed me off that you said that. - I'm not saying it's better, I'm saying I prefer it. - But then I've seen you on other videos make fun of people for other similar kind of- - Like what? - I don't know, I think I saw one. Fuck, I don't know. - You probably said some shit. - I prefer instant ramen.
- It's what? No, I'm scared. I'm really good. - Why are you scared? - I'm scared. - You're looking at me like you don't want to disappoint like dad or something. It's just like, dad, I got a C. - I just never crave ramen. And then when I eat it, I'm like, yeah, it's ramen. And then instant ramen, oh, all these hits. - No, but like, no, I get the whole not craving ramen, especially like getting to our age. Like the older you get, I feel the less you crave ramen. - I crave skim end though.
- Really? - Yeah. - See, I've kind of get to the point where I don't even crave that anymore. - I occasionally crave that one. The one that I took you to. - Yeah. - I love that place. - Yeah. - Okay. - Like every now and then it'd be like, "Ooh, okay. I'm in the area. I might go have a cheeky skim in." But I used to, 'cause I remember like when I was younger, I would be like, "Fuck, I haven't had skim in today. This is day ruined."
And now I'm just like, eh, I'll take it when I can. - Yeah, I don't know what it is. I don't know, ramen just doesn't do anything for me. - I'll be honest, I think the last time I had ramen was like over a year ago. - That's what I'm saying though. Like the older you get and the longer you live in Japan, the less you just like crave ramen.
- I think I didn't have it last year, but then I think this year I had it like four times in like two weeks. It's just, I don't know, it happens. - I'll tell you what, because it's not like I don't like ramen, but I don't like the food coma that comes afterwards. 'Cause you always, ramen, you always come out of it. You're like, it's not just- - But the value, the value. - I know the value, but it's not just like the time of the ramen, it's like the two hours afterwards where you're just like,
"Oh, let me just digest for a second." And you're just like out of it. - I don't know, to me it's like the perfect drinking food. 'Cause I'll, there's like, it's so hard to get drunk after eating a massive bowl of ramen. - Yeah, sobs you off, for sure. - But I like getting drunk. - I don't. - You don't like the feeling of getting drunk? - I like being tipsy. I don't like being drunk.
- I don't crave ramen when I get drunk though. - I crave any food. - It's the only time I crave ramen. - Isn't it 'cause it's the only thing that's open? - No, I think it's because again, it's just like the perfect amount and flavor profile for you to satisfy yourself when you're drunk. 'Cause do you get hungry when you're drunk? 'Cause a lot of people don't.
which is weird. - Yeah, Pete doesn't eat like anything. - Yeah, right? Pete's the kind of guy where it's like the moment he starts drinking, all food is gone. It's just drinks until he goes to sleep, which I don't understand. - Really? No, I crave like chips. - Right, like snacky food. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. But not like, I couldn't eat like a whole meal 'cause then I feel sick. - Oh, okay. - Bro, it's bad. I think I eat like my fifth meal while I'm drunk. - Yeah.
Every time I come home, I'm like, I'll stop by a convenience store, get some food and then immediately feel like shit. - Dydus' number one drunk food is soba. - Soba? - Every time he gets drunk, no matter what, he's like, I'm gonna Uber eat soba.
- Uber eats soba? - That sounds so ass. - No, it's yummy, he likes it. - Uber eating soba? - Yeah, it's not bad. - Nah. - Soba you gotta have at the store, I feel. - Cold soba or hot soba? - Cold soba. - Okay, okay. - Cold soba maybe it trails a little bit. - That's the first time I've heard someone crave soba drunk. - I've never heard of ordering soba. - Yeah, like Uber eating soba. - Sydney does it. - What? - Really? - Yeah.
- I don't like it. I need it in the store. I need it fresh right in front of me. - 'Cause you want to be piping hot as well if it's like a hot thing at least. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I don't know. - I mean, I don't eat hot soba all that often anyway. - But Emily, how have you been? - Yeah, how's life? - Life has been good. - Yeah. - Strawberry season. - When was the last time you walked? It's quite a while ago.
- You really said this is gonna be my whole personality. - No, it's not. - Are you still having like a pack of strawberries? I think last time I talked to you- - I was just taking drugs. You want a pack of strawberries a day? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. You were like eating a pack of strawberries like every day or something like that.
- I'm still keeping that up. - I like to like take pictures and like post on my Instagram story, like their Pokemon packs. Like today's pack looks crazy. - Wow, you're on over a hundred episodes ago. - Wow. - Almost two years, actually yeah, by the time this comes out two years ago. - No three, no two years ago. - Two years ago, yeah. - Wow, good to be back. - I felt like a drug dealer when I bought you strawberries.
- Why? I appreciate it. - I was in Costco and I saw, you know, they had like this giant packs of strawberries for a reasonable price. - I finished them like 10 minutes after you left, by the way. - I was like 40. I felt like I was enabling a problem. I was like, I took a picture, did you want these? They were like, yeah, I do. - I feel, I've kind of realized, I feel like every time we give you and Dydus a gift,
- What we plan for that we think you guys are gonna, that's gonna last you like a few days, you finish immediately. So we went to Switzerland and I remember buying the pack of like chocolates for you and me and Cindy, that amount of chocolates that lasts us like what, three days. So I was like, okay. - Three? - Yeah.
And so Sydney gives them the chocolates and I think you were- - We were at the office. - You were at the office or something and I was working. And by the time I had gotten back and got into my bed, Dydus goes, Dydus texts me going, "Thanks for the chocolate, it's already gone." - It's better than- - How many chocolates was that?
'Cause I also brought them some from Switzerland and they ate it right in front of me instantly. You opened it like a ravaged animal. We were waiting for a restaurant and in the line, she opens the package and starts eating them all. I was like, Emily, wait until after the meal.
- We physically can't keep snacks in the house. Like when we go grocery shopping, we don't buy snacks only because like- - I can't eat that, I'll eat everything. - No self control. Like absolutely none. So we're like, we're an ingredients only household. And I remember, what is it? I like went to your place once and you guys had like
So many snacks, like packs of Shin Ramyun and like fruit by the foot. And I'm like, when did you buy this? And she's like, we got it a few months ago. Shin Ramyun qualifies as a snack, by the way. It's like 400 calories. Any food in the house. Any food, that's a snack. I'm just amazed that people can buy like snacks in bulk. Not eat them right away. Yeah. How do they do that?
- I don't, it's a mystery. - I just don't crave it. - Yeah, it's just self-control, I guess. - My problem is if I go to the fridge and I see a small snack in there, I'll be like, oh, okay. And I'll just grab one. Like if I love baby bells, I fucking love baby bells, but I cannot go to the fridge without grabbing one if they're in there. - I grab like three.
- When we went to Costco last time and I got that big bag of baby bells, that lasted like two weeks. - For me, the natural wax casing is a deterrent to stop me from having three 'cause it's so annoying to fucking. - It's fun. - It's fun. - I don't know if I have like fucking monkey hands or something, but like whenever I peel the baby bell in half, trying to get one of the halves out is- - Without breaking it off. - I have to like rip it apart like an adult. - It makes it taste better.
- 'Cause you have to work for it. - It's like string cheese. - You mean we have to work for it? - Yeah. - No, I've already paid for it. - No, it's like, you know when you eat crab legs? Like the fact that you have to like- - No, I hate doing that. - What? - Actually crab legs are, it depends on the crab.
- Sometimes you have a crab with like so much meat and you're like, this was worth the effort. Sometimes you have, when you're getting on one of those, like fuck the final legs and it's basically no meat and you're fighting for your life for like one tidbit of meat. - I hate it. - That's like too much. - But the king crabs, the king crabs are like really thick legs and you know, you can, you stick that thing in and you'd basically just rip an entire leg out and it's so satisfying. Like this is great. But then yeah, in Japan I feel like
you always have this really long pointy tongue. And if you get in there, like it's like a- - It's part of the experience. - But it's so much work. - Does it make you feel like a predator? Like, "Ooh, I gotta get this morsel of meat." - I never wanted to feel like a predator, just so you know. - Not the greatest worst. - You wanted to just be a predator.
- That's why crab cakes are goaded. You get all the flavor. - Someone else does the work. - Someone else does the work. - It's already prepared. - You just get a plate full of like meat. - I'm the kind of person where I, like if I have like eight crab legs, I, and maybe this is some kind of weird thing, I don't know. I have to pull out all the meat of all of them before I can start eating. I don't know why I do this. - I do that with shrimp.
- Anything that I have to peel or like prepare, I will do all of it first. So then I can just be like, that is done. I can now enjoy just food. - See, I go in reverse order. I start with like this. - How do you reverse? - Okay, no, no, no. - I eat the whole thing. - Only the meat. - Okay, okay. When you get a plate full of crab, what's the first part you go for? - The leg.
'Cause so many people I know go for the claw, 'cause that's the one with like the most meat, right? - Well, if you get a big leg though, it's a lot. - I mean, it depends on the crab. - Depends on the crab, yeah. - I mean, most of the time you get a crab or a lobster or whatever. - I haven't had a lot of king crab though, 'cause they don't really have a lot of it here. - Yeah. - And it can be expensive as well. - I always go for the piece with like the least amount of meat.
So that I always leave like the juicy claw or like the biggest leg for last. - Oh, you save it for last? - I save it for last. - Yeah, me too, me too. - So it's always like, I end off with the most- - Were you the kind of kid who always saved the best part of the dinner plate for last? - Yes. - Yeah. - And I've realized I could only get away with this 'cause I'm an only child. When someone told me that, I was like,
- Shit, I think you're right. - See, because me having a sibling, I was like, I need to eat that bitch first. Otherwise she's gonna go, "Huh!" And grab that shit. - Like you get a bucket of KFC, which is the first piece you go for? Like bucket of KFC, your- - The leg. - The leg is the best part. - The leg, yeah. - The leg is the best part. - No, no, it's the thigh. It's the thigh. Thigh is the most skin. Thigh is the most skin. Leg? - No, 'cause the leg you can fucking,
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can hold it, it's perfectly convenient to hold and just rip off. - No, see with the thigh, what I would do, what I do, right, is I would separate, this is, I realize saying this out loud, this might sound like psychopath shit. I separate the skin from the chicken. - Yeah, that's psychopath behavior. - And then I eat like the chicken meat so that I can just have like the skin-
- That's disgusting. - That's disgusting. - That's not disgusting. - Garnt, that's disgusting. - The skin is the best part of KFC. - It reminds me of that scene in South Park where Cartman like eats all the skin. - Garnt sounds like a serial killer. The skin is the best part.
- I only consumed the skin. - That's where all the breading is, that's where all like the spices and herbs are, it's the crunchy bit. It's just like, yeah. - Remind me never to eat fried chicken with you ever again. I don't wanna see this psychopath behavior at the table. - Bro's doing surgery on a chicken.
- Scalpel. - The perfect skin. - I can't be the only one who does this. - No, I'm sure you're not. - Someone else must do this. - One trait I wish I had is that I wish I, I don't, I physically cannot understand how people are able to like strip the, like the bone clean.
Like when I try to like, I'm like, all right, I'll do it. I saw someone on TikTok tell me that's like, this is, you know, you, you know, you, when you eat the wing, you eat the chicken, you always have those like bits that are really fucking hard to chew through. - The cartilage. - Cartilage and some other stuff too. - Yeah. - I just can't, I physically can't get it off.
I'm like, ah. - That's a skill issue bro. - Yeah, but I don't know how people do it. - Better teeth. - I don't know. Yeah, I guess so. I remember I got like weak British teeth. Try to eat it. Do you do that? Do you clean the bone? - I mean, I don't like cartilage. - I try. - Yeah, the cartilage isn't. - I think my bones are pretty clean most of the time. - Yeah, I try. - I try to clean as much as possible, but I don't know. - Sometimes it just can't be fucked. Especially if there's like, especially if there's like a small amount of chicken wings that I'm like, okay, I gotta save it. So I'll like clean the bone off as much as possible. If there's a giant mountain there, I'll be like,
It's all right, I'll just get the next one. Fuck it, it's clean enough, whatever. Yeah, I think it was a pet peeve of mine because I fucking, I think chicken wings was my favorite thing
as a kid. I would always have to have like chicken wings every week. And whenever I'd have a mate over and my mom would cook us chicken wings, it would like fucking trigger me so much when I just saw, when I just see the amount of meat. - Some people leave an egregious amount. - Oh my God. - Some people literally do two bites and they're like, okay. - Yeah. - And you're like, what? - Can't even see the bone yet. - There's so much skin left. - Like some of it I can understand, but just, ugh.
- At least make sure that all like the easy to get- - It was me, I was that friend. - Yeah. - Do you have a hot take on chicken wings?
- I feel like my takes on chicken wings are really normal. - No, you like- - You have the worst takes on anyone. - What do you mean? Just 'cause I said I liked instant ramen more than real ramen? - It's not helping your street cred. - I just feel like whenever you tell me anything, there's always a caveat. Like you can be, I like this, but, and then you're like- - But it needs to be mercury rice. - I'll be like, oh, so you're like,
- No, no, no, it's not today. - Southwest wings, not today. - Strawberries, but they must be rotund. It was kind of weird, right? - I don't have any chicken hot takes. I will say the last time, I don't know, last time I had chicken wings with Didis, it was like the garlic stuffed ones.
- What? - You know the chicken wings, they like just cram it with like garlic. Have you had it? - What is this? - I thought I would like it more. It's a bit too much garlic though. - Wait, what is this? - I've never even heard of this. - This sounds amazing. - Yeah, garlic stuffed chicken wings. - Yeah. - What? - Yeah, these things.
- That sounds amazing. - Dude, that looks so fucking good. - That looks like gyoza. - Yeah. - It's basically chicken gyoza. - Yeah. - It's yummy. - Whoa, I've never heard of this. - I fucking love gyoza. - I like this. - Oh, I want that. - That sounds amazing. - Yeah. - It wasn't good? - No, no, it was good, but- - Too much garlic? - I left feeling self-conscious because when we went to, I went with Didis. It was like fun little date night.
wings together. We ordered 10 wings each person, which I feel like is a reasonable amount of wings. I would get more normally. Yeah, right? So we sit down, we order it through the QR code and then the guy who cooks it, he comes over. He goes...
you want 20 wings. And we're like, I know I'm like, yes. And he goes, oh, which to me translates to okay. Why do they, why do they come and confirm that you're a fat ass? Really? She doesn't look that fat. No, we should go check. No, we really should. The average Japanese woman eats two and feels full. You're 110. I was like, I feel like, and of course we like absolutely demolished it. Of course. Yeah. But yeah,
- Yeah, I remember the last time that happened was we went to get like pizzas together. This was like two years ago. We only went once. It was a personal pizza place, very small, just like little personal size pizza. And Dias and I were like, we're kind of hungry. Let's get two each. - Fuck yeah. - Yeah. We ordered four personal pizzas.

Back to the episode.
- You want four? - Yeah. And I just feel like the entire time we were eating, she was like secretly judging us. - Why would they gotta confirm that I'm a fat ass? I always have this dude. I went to a burger place and I ordered a burger, fries, extra fries and wings. 'Cause I was like, I'm going big. And they were like, "Hitori?" I was like, "So desu ne."
- Hungry as fuck. - And then even though they confirmed one person, they still put three forks in the bag. - No, that's BM. - And I was like, that's fucked up that you think this is three people with the food. This is two tops. - Oh my God. Jesus Christ. - Oh my God. Yeah, no, it is embarrassing. I remember we went to that one place though. We had like lunch pasta at this place and the portion sizes were fucking ridiculous. Do you remember how big the pasta was they gave us? - Where was this?
- I was in Itabashi or Ichigaya. It was a place and dude, I felt like I was in Matilda. - I remember this. - Have you seen Matilda with the Brucey? - The chocolate cake. - She's like, "Oh, you like pasta, do you?" "Oh, well Connor, eat up Connor." And it came out the fucking gauntlet of pasta. It was like a mountain like this. And it was a thousand yen. There's pepperoncino, couldn't taste the pepperoncino.
- Just boiled pasta. That was not a fucking- - With a drizzle of oil. - They had given me one portion of sauce and four portions of pasta. And I was fighting for my life. We were like, "This is good, right?" And we were like, "Yeah, value's great." - This was like right before we had to film too. - Yeah, we were so joyful. - We're just like lethargic. - Oh my God. - I ate it all. I felt like a fat ass. - Yeah. - I mean, that sounds like pasta when I cook it at home. 'Cause I can never estimate the right amount of pasta.
- Yeah, the recipe is always like for two people and I'm like, I'll make it for 20. Just in case. - But I heard you've been cooking more at home as well. - Yeah, I've gotten really good at cooking chicken breast. - I heard from a dieters that you've gotten really good. - Oh yeah. - What have you been cooking mostly? - Chicken and broccoli. - Just chicken and broccoli? - Chicken and broccoli. - Just chicken and broccoli? - And salad, shrimp salad. - You ate vodka pasta one time, she was so fun.
- Oh, I haven't made that in so long though. - Why? - 'Cause it's too carby. - Is it? Fuck, it's so good. - It's pasta with like heavy cream. - It's so good. I think I had like five bowls when I went to your house. I was like, "More, more." - I miss it. It's mostly just been chicken and shrimp. - Is this why you can't have any snacks in your house? Because you're on like chicken and broccoli. - Yeah. - Every day. - Every day. Chicken and broccoli or shrimp salad. We just cycle between those two. - Oh, shit.
'Cause Sydney, I don't know if you guys are the same, but I can eat the same thing every day. - Yeah, me too. - If I wanted to. If I really like something, I can eat the same thing. Sydney, it's like, if she really, really, really likes something, it's like two days at most. Three days, no, she needs to constantly have something different. - I feel like, is that like a guy thing? - I think I'm just like a dog.
I'm like, dude, the same thing 18 times in a row. Let's fucking go. - It's like that meme of the dog eating the same wet food for 100 days. And everyone's like, this is bloody lovely. - This is really nice. - I wonder if it's a guy thing, 'cause Dydus is the same way where he's like, I could just eat this every day. - Yeah, for the past like four weeks, I've eaten daps like every day. - I'm so tired of chicken and broccoli.
- I bet. - Chicken and broccoli, I do get sick of though. - No, it tastes good. I want something else. - It's not something you crave though. - I'm like hankering for some chicken breast and broccoli. - Do you have to do things like spice things up to make it a little bit different every single day? - No, just the same seasoning over and over again. - 'Cause I swear, my mom would do this thing where I fucking love my mom's cooking.
And then out of nowhere, I'm just like, mom, do the thing, cook the dish. And she's like, I tried something different today. And I'm like, mom, why did you try something different? I liked it the way it was before. And then I have it and I'm just like,
- You ruined it. Why would you do this, mom? You perfected the recipe and then you had to change it for some reason. And I swear, Sydney does the same thing as well whenever she cooks. She'll cook something amazing, next time she'll try something different. Sometimes it makes it better to be fair, but a lot of times I'm like,
- I want the old recipe back. - You had a banger and you like decided to change it. Me on the other hand, I think about how to cook lasagna once, same time, every time. - Work the first time. - Don't mess with it. - Don't fix something that's not broken. - World famous lasagna for a reason. - Can't change that. - Oh my God, yeah. Last time we had this lasagna, I think I had like three plates worth. It was so good. - I've still never had it.
- One day. - One day. - One day, I'll have it. - One day. - And you just see what the hype's about. - Oh God, no. - Don't hype it up. I say everyone don't hype it up. - They probably just don't make enough. - Sorry? - You don't make enough. - I mean, I've heard the Google reviews.
- Last time you made two giant batches and it didn't last. - I was like, that means it's good. - I genuinely think I could eat one of those. Like the whole thing. - Are you serious? - I 100% think I could. - What the fuck? - It's like nine pieces of like big lasagna. And I'm pretty sure I could eat it all. - I could probably smash that back. - Like I might need a break on like piece five, but I can get through it.
- So good. - I don't know why if I have a drink, I just become bottomless. - Yeah. - What's wrong with me? - Wait, what, like with like an alcoholic drink? - If I drink like four beers, I can eat everything. - If I have four beers, I'm full. - No, I'm like down to eat. Pete always makes fun of me when I'm eating. He's like, "Really, another more food color?" I'm like, "Hungry, eat." - Yeah, I used to not eat anything after a night out. And then I think it was,
- So I try eating something now because I realized my hangovers are just a lot. - Yeah, I don't get hangovers when I fucking eat shit Tom. - Yeah, and that sounds so fucking bad that I'm like, yeah, I got to end the night with a fat fucking meal even though I'm not hungry. - It's like, I'm going to go to sleep hungover or fat. Those are the two choices. - I think I'd rather be fat. - Why not both? - I'll be both sometimes.
So since you've last been on, you've started Spilled Ink. Oh yeah! Congratulations, by the way. Thank you. How's that going? It's been going really good. We've been really enjoying it so far, especially Dydus. Hell yeah. I can't remember, how long did you have this idea planned out and wanted to do it? I think for like a solid year. Right. We had the idea, but we weren't sure how we wanted to go about it.
And I know the first like pilot episode we tried to record, it was with like the help of like Geeks Plus staff. Yeah. But the problem was like it was really uncomfortable because it's just like people like waiting for you to finish drawing. Yeah. And like they weren't rushing us or anything, but you kind of get that feeling of like if I take too long, we're wasting their time. Right, right, right.
So then Didis was like, I can't do this. We need a, and also it's just hard to like have a comfortable conversation if there's other people in the room. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we ended up changing it to like, okay, it's just us. It's hand cam. Yeah.
And it's just us like having a conversation while we draw. And it's really good so far. - I mean, you basically just made a podcast, but you can like draw at the same time. - Yeah. - You realize, I think doing small scripted, highly intense videos to doing more chilled videos like that, you kind of like, the one thing I've really, really appreciate is, and I talked to Dallas about this. The one thing I really, really appreciate is knowing how long
a session will be for work. - Yeah. - Like, you know, sometimes you're making a video and you're like, this could take anywhere between one week and- - Six months. - Six months, sorry. - I don't know. Depending on how creative I'm feeling on the day.
But with content like podcast or what you're doing in spilled ink, it's so refreshing just to know, okay, we're gonna come in at this time. - Exactly when I'm clocking in and clocking out. - Yeah. - Yeah. - I'm like, bro. - God damn. - It feels so good to just record and then be like, pass it to the editors. This is your problem now. I'm done, I did my part. - You guys are working on a manga, right?
- Yeah, a submission for the Kadokawa Manga Contest. - Are you able to talk about it? - Yeah. - This one will be out for like two months. - It's due in like two days. - It's due in like two days? Okay, okay. So you've made a manga. - By the time this comes out. - By the time this comes out and submitted it for a manga contest, correct? - Didis has. - Didis has. - I have not finished mine. - You have finished yours? - No! - I was too busy! - Oh, you're doing separate things. - Yeah, separate submissions. I still want to like finish it. I just want to submit it.
'cause it's the deadliest paper. Sorry. - No, you apologize. - Sorry. But, "Diet" is pretty much finished. It's like 21 pages and it looks really good. - Oh, yeah, okay. I'm excited to see. So how far did you get in yours then? - I got to like the sketching. - You got to the sketching? - I have not inked it though. - That's still pretty far. - I did not have time. I spent like two weeks just at home, like slamming monsters every day, trying to finish a video.
So I wasn't able to work on the manga at all, unfortunately. - You wouldn't be able to work on it because you're shitting yourself from having monster every day. - I needed the juice to keep me going. Okay. It's a lot of drawing. - Are you going to eventually release it maybe? - Yeah. - Yeah, you should. - Yeah. - I feel a bit of shame otherwise. - I don't know. Yeah, of course. - What was your process like? Because how did you come up with the idea?
- Well, so it was a little difficult because the manga contest is wordless. So you're not allowed to have any text. - That's a cool idea though. I think certainly for like a Japanese competition where you can have a lot of people from different parts of the world enter. - Yeah, because I believe this competition is literally for international artists, international people to submit to. That's why they make it wordless. So it really much relies on the ability to tell a story visually.
But yeah, like you were saying, you had to come up with a story without saying any words. - Yeah. - Is that correct? - Which is surprisingly very difficult. - Oh, I bet, yeah. - Can I ask what genre is it? - I think from, I guess for both of ours, it's kind of fantasy. - Right. - Okay. - Which is difficult 'cause it's like you have to do world building, but it's all entirely visual. - Yeah, right.
What kind of world did you take inspiration from? - For me, I went for like a little witchy story. I like witches, something cute. And then for Dydas, he went for like underwater world type of story. - Okay, 'cause I remember when you went to England and there was like some of these like little towns. - Where did we go? What was the location called? It started with a B.
- I can't remember the town. - What was the name of the area? - I'm gonna- - It's probably near Oxford, right? - Can you name all the B town names? - There's a lot of them. - Bosonville. - I mean, you're not far from a bunch of places that start with Buckingham around there. - No, it wasn't Buckingham. - Buckinghamshire or something. - But it's somewhere in Oxford, Oxfordshire.
- Somewhere in that area. - If it's not a main place, it's within Oxford, you're fucked. There's like hundreds of fucking places called B. - Yeah, 'cause I remember when we were driving around, you're like, oh, this is like really inspiring me for like my manga and stuff like that. So you must have had this idea for like a while. - I have, yeah. - Okay. - I just haven't really like sat down and produced like a,
like a thing. Yeah. Right. But it must be nice though, being able to produce it and then also having like spilled ink and kind of having some more consistency. You can kind of, you know, still work on something. I'll be like, Oh my God, I haven't released anything. I haven't done anything. Like,
So I know that it's kind of stressful to have to keep managing that expectation. - Yeah. - Did you have to do any like studying for like manga paneling and stuff like that before diving straight into this process? - We didn't do much studying. It's more like, like we already consumed so much manga to begin with. So you kind of an idea of how the flow of the panels go. - Just trial by fire kind of thing. - Yeah. But what also helps is like we were able to show it to like an actual Katakawa manga editor. So she could give some pointers on like, I think you should do it like this.
Like this part's not very clear, maybe do something like this. So that was really insightful. - Was it scary having to like- - Yes, I was like shitting myself. It was so scary. - What kind of things did they tell you in terms of like, did you learn anything from like just showing it to an editor and stuff like that? - Yeah, so there were,
I guess her main piece of advice was like, if you were not like you're familiar with it because it's a story you created, but like try to view it from someone who has no prior knowledge of like any of these characters or anything. Yeah. Can you understand what's going on? Yeah. And yeah, she gave me some paneling tips as well. Like, oh, like these two pages are next to each other. They kind of both have like the same panel style. So it looks repetitive. So maybe like switch it up.
But yeah. Because there's like a really like subtle art to like the flow of manga panels, right? Yeah. I feel that most people when you read manga, you don't think about. Yeah. But when you actually are on the making side of it, you're just like, oh, that's why that panel is shaped that way because it leads...
like your eyes create like a natural path to follow. - Sometimes you read a bad manga, not a bad manga, but like ones where you're like, "Where am I starting again?" You know, you're trying to like figure it out. - Usually like the paneling is not all that right. - You appreciate that like sometimes you just flip the page, you're like. - Yeah, it's like, I know exactly where my eyes are going and it all flows together naturally. - Sorry for interrupting you there. - Oh no, no, no, you didn't interrupt me. - I mean, it's almost like the invisible art in a lot of ways. - For sure. - When it's like good paneling,
kind of like similar to good film editing. You don't notice it because you just immerse yourself in the work. And then there's sometimes, you know, fucking people like Tatsuki Fujimoto who does like wild ideas that actually you notice the weird paneling. Yeah. But it works somehow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. For sure. Like I remember reading the first time I noticed someone playing around with like paneling was probably like,
Sayonara Eddie? Yeah. Oh, yeah. The iPhone. Yeah. The iPhone thing. Yeah. That's so fucking cool. I was like, have you read Goodbye, Eri? I have not. It's a one shot that Fujimoto Tatsuki, the creative chainsaw man made. And the first half of the manga, all the paneling is the same size and it's the aspect ratio of an iPhone because all of the panels are being shown from the perspective of someone filming on an iPhone.
- Oh, that's really creative. - And so there are panels where it's like, you know, it shows like a, you know, a person in the middle of the screen, you know, talking or whatever. And then the next screen will look like a blurred movement of someone moving a phone.
So the entire time you're watching and you're like, oh, this is taking place on iPhone video. And it's never explained that what you're looking at is being viewed on an iPhone video, but the way he's paneled it is like instantly you're like, oh, this is on an iPhone. - Well, that's awesome. What is it called? - Goodbye Airy. - Goodbye Airy. - Yeah, really, really good one shot. - And it's only like,
100 pages or something like that? It's emotional. Really? It's one of the best one shots I've ever read. Yeah. It's good though. Really, really good. Very, very good. Yeah. I have to read it. You can read it in like half now. It's super short. Yeah, these boys made me read it. Yeah, I enjoyed it. 200 pages.
I did get very emotional though. It's very sad. It is. Have you learned a lot from doing Spill Dink? Because I guess unintentionally you have to do like a lot of different drawing challenges, like different art styles and different equipment. That's one of the nice things about Spill Dink is that the whole point of the channel is like we are learning traditional art again. Yeah. So I like that there isn't really a pressure to like
be good yeah there's no because like we're not like a tutorial art channel like let me show you the the right way to pick because like we don't know what we're doing fuck up yeah and that's just part of the fun yeah and it's nice because uh like our viewers also get to see us kind of like struggle with mediums maybe they're more familiar with right right
- That's cool though. - Yeah. - And I'm sure like, 'cause like, I swear every time I see you, I know when you have a deadline because I don't see you for like weeks. - People know if I'm,
- If I'm grinding, they just don't hear from me for like a while. - You'll just disappear and then you'll like emerge and you'll be like a social butterfly for like a few weeks and then like the deadline creeps up again. - Yeah, and I'm like, I need to go to my hole, goodbye. - Actually, Spill Think has made me faster with drawing. - Really? - I think because one of the things that we had to learn with traditional art is that
You don't have control Z. So you have to draw with more intention with like your lines. And I think when I move back over to digital to work on like a video, my lines are just faster. And I'm not control Z-ing as much as I used to.
So like this past video that I uploaded, which was like the American food takes video, it was like at least like 300 drawings. And normally for those conversation type of videos, I need like at least two weeks to finish drawing everything. But I was able to knock it out in like a week and a half. Oh damn. I think also the monster might've fucking played. Your heart rate was like 200 the entire time. Yeah.
Definitely not the healthiest drug. I don't recommend this for anybody, by the way. I don't recommend it. I'm just saying like,
I was very impressed with myself. Like, wow, I got so many drawings. - It's crazy. It's like an absurd amount of work. - Yeah. - Yeah. - I mean, I think it's lost on people a lot of times, me included. - Please look after your sleep schedule. - No, yeah, of course, of course. - Every time I talk to you. - You mean of course, like you do. - No, they're fun to work on, but like, I don't, I wish I could make more of those like conversation videos 'cause people really like them.
- But they take so much work. - They take so much work, it hurts. - 'Cause how long was the original audio for that video? - An hour and a half. But also I had to, 'cause people wanted the full version. I had to cut it down. - I heard Sydney got unhinged in the recording. - Yeah, most of what I had to cut out was just Sydney.
- Screaming shit. - We'd be talking about food and then she would just drop something really personal. And then we would talk about it for like 10 minutes. - Sydney will do that. Sydney does this technique where you'll be talking about something random and then she'll just drop in this really like dark, heavy subject. And then almost like to throw you off. And then she'll be like,
- So fuck it, yeah, ramen, ramen, yeah. - I like how you know who's been around Sydney a while 'cause Sydney will be in a conversation and maybe there's some new people there and she'll be like, "What if I killed a man?" And we all look at her and we go, "Okay, so." - You don't get the whiplash anymore. - I know when Sydney's getting drunk when she just comes over and just says really cryptic shit and then doesn't elaborate. And I'm like, "Of course." - Just walks off.
- Do you know what he did? - No, I don't. - I remember like when I first got to know Sydney, I was like panicking, like, what do you mean? What happened? Are you okay? Now I'm just like, that's nice Sydney. - You're used to it now. - That's nice. - Yeah, it's pretty normal. - God, I remember, I don't know if I've told the story before, but I remember when we went to a restaurant,
the league world finals. So I remember we all went, it was me, you, Connor and Didis. And we went to the right after party. And that's where we met Kajol for the first time. - Yeah. - Who is a very, very like, you know, one of the biggest right now and very, very nice guy. And I remember we were all sitting at the table, Kajol joined us. And then I think we all went off to get some drinks, right?
And so the only people left on the table was Kajol and Sydney, who by the way knows nothing about League of Legends. And she was a little bit intoxicated. So I remember going back to the table and Kajol had just looked like he was, he'd just come back from war. - The thousand yards there. - It was just like the thousand yards there.
And I remember, I remember he turns to me and you know, we're having a, we're having a friendly chat. Sydney goes over to the toilet and she's like, yo, is your wife okay? And I'm like, yeah. And he's just like, yeah, she just asked me if I've ever killed anyone. And I'm like,
- Yeah, that's just a her thing, don't worry. - It's like a CIA style. - Have you ever killed anyone? - What have you though? - Why is Sydney asking people this? - She's curious. - She's waiting for the one person to be like, I have, actually. - Like I said, it's like, you can tell who has, who is used to hang out with Sydney,
- To me, I hear that shit and it's just white noise now. I don't even like acknowledge it. And sometimes when we hang out with other people, I get reminded, oh yeah.
- She does say weird out of pocket shit every now and again. So yeah, that's the one way to know how Sydney is drunk. - One way, there's a couple other ways too. - First sign is if she starts mentioning homicide, that's when the flag should be going off. - I don't know why she started doing this. She would just always go, "I'm pregnant." Like what the fuck, Sydney?
- When she's actually pregnant, we won't know. - We're not gonna know. - Okay, good one. - You will know because she'll shout that out when she's actually sober. - It's funny, it's so funny though. It was a good time. - Okay, when you go back to America, what's like the one thing you always, what's the first like meals you have to have? 'Cause I know Adidas. - Chipotle. - Chipotle, okay, okay.

- I had a bagel every day. - American bagels are so good. - American bagels are so good. - I miss American bagels and American subs or just subs that are not in Japan. - Fucking sandwich. - Like a pastrami sub. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Chipotle. - Italian sub. - Give me a good Italian sub. - A good fat burger.
- Yeah, 'cause Didis likes Panda Express. - Oh my God, disgusting. - Listen, I don't hate Panda Express, if I'm being honest.
Every time, like every time I'm in America and I'm just like, I'm never in the mood for it. But if I walk past in a Panda Express and I smell the orange chicken, I'm just like, it's nasty. It smells like chemicals. It does. Yeah. And like, I remember with last anime expo, I messaged you guys at 10 AM. I was like, Hey, do you guys want to get lunch? And,
And then you guys are like, I was so sad when you messaged me and you were like, let's get tender greens. I was like, it's great. It's like they do steak plates. It's great. And then you're like, sorry, I'm already in the room eating Panda Express. I'm like at 10 a.m. You got takeout orange chicken at 10 a.m. That's kind of wild. It was so bad. That's degenerate as fuck. That's wild.
- Next time, next time. - Yeah, next time. - Well, that's where I discovered what a quart of mash was. I didn't know what the fuck a quart was. You guys make fun of us for our dumb ass measurements. - What the fuck is a quart of mash? - Have you ever heard of a quart before? - No. - It's a fucking American measurement. - Is it a quarter of something? - Whatever, you fucking, you guys weigh each other by like stones
- We realized that like with food portions, it's probably good to have like just a universal system so that you don't get confused. And here I am with the like, you know, in the UK you expect like flambity-wambity fucking thing. I go to the thing and I wanted this side of mash. Right? And so I go to this website and I, you know, I get some steak and whatever, and I'm like, I want a side of mash with it. And I thought, oh, cool. It's like a quarter portion.
- Right? No, it's not a quarter portion. - You get like a bucket of mash. - It's this. - What? - This filled with mash. It was like a full on like fucking weapon. - Wait, wait, so can we establish what the fuck a quart is? - Can we give you what a quart is? - How much is a quart? - I don't know. - Is it a quarter of a pound? - You know what it looks like, right? But you don't know what it is. - No. - See?
- Wait, it's basically a liter. - I got a liter of mashed potato. - Why are they selling mashed potato by a liter? - By a liter. - By a measurement to measure liquids. That makes no sense. - So yeah, I ordered it and I thought, I did think, wow, $15 for a side of mash is really expensive. - But you're like, ah, LA. - I was like, oh, but it's LA. I know I'm paying a lot, so whatever. And then I ordered it and I was like, Jesus Christ. - Did you finish it? - No, I couldn't finish it. - You could have shared.
- That's a keel of mashed potatoes. - I was in my room alone. - That's crazy. Look how much of that is. - That's crazy. - That's fucked. - That's crazy. - I got through about three fourths of it to be fair. Before I started to feel sick. - Yeah, that's a lot. - And the worst part was is that like, I got it to take to my room. Cause I was just like, I was fucking dead. And I was like, I just want to have my lunch alone in solitude. And I left like the quarter of mash in the thing. And I thought they would throw it away, but they didn't.
And even though, and so I just sat there for five days staring at it. It was disgusting.
- That's too much potato. - Until I left a note saying, please, can you throw this away? - Please throw this away. - I don't wanna look at this anymore. - What's your opinion of Raising Cane's? - I love Raising Cane's. - I don't like Raising Cane's. - I think it's the most mid fucking chicken. - I love the sauce. - And like when we were on tour, everyone in our audience and everyone on like our tour bus was talking about Raising Cane's.
And I had it and I was the only person that thought he was like so fucking mid. It's, it's, it's, it is. - I love it. - The sauce is good. - The sauce is phenomenal. - The breading is,
The chicken is average. You guys just like the sauce. That's it. - Mother fucker, you've never had a condiment in your life. I don't wanna hear it. I don't wanna hear it. I don't wanna sit here and, this is why Emily tell me my ramen is shit. I don't wanna hear it. - Okay, I never said ramen was shit. I just said I liked instant ramen more. - You said what you said. - You said enough. - You said a shittier version of ramen is better. - You've said enough, Emily, okay? - Would you say the same thing about Korean noodles as well? - What do you mean?
- Like Korean noodles from the store versus like instant ramen Koreans. - No, I love Korean noodles. - Oh, so it's a rice thing. - The Korean doesn't like the Japanese dish. - Try a bowl of jajangmyeon, try a bowl of like naengmyeon. Oh, so freaking good. - No, no, no, we're not disagreeing with you on that. It's just like the fact that
- When it's Japanese, it's like, nah, give me the instant shit. - Ancestors here. - I would understand if you were like, oh, Korean ones as well, also instant. Then we would understand. - No. - But it's the fact that you're making a distinction between those two. - No!
- I just don't like ramen, that's it. What of it? - Whenever we get to the, I know so whenever we get Korean chicken, you always get the plain one, which always I'm like, huh? - Oh, that's so good. - Plain fried chicken is crazy when there's like sauce. - Soy garlic is, I get flavor fatigue. - Flavor fatigue? - You've never heard the term flavor fatigue?
- No, I understand. - As in like too much flavor? - No, no, no, no. Sometimes you have too much of the same flavor. - Oh, I see. - When all you want is like, it's like when you, why a lot of people like they'll buy sides. 'Cause then you have like, if you have like, I don't know, pasta, but then maybe you have a, I don't know, you have like something else on the side. It completely changed the flavor and then you're kind of like, I can eat more. - Oh, yeah, I understand that. - I like getting the plain original chicken and then getting like sides of like soy garlic sauce, honey mustard sauce. So I can just like dip it.
- It's not as good because they don't coat it as much. 'Cause I feel like when you get like from the Korean places, they fucking sauce those things off. - Yeah, they do. - I love it. - They drown it in that shit. - I'm a sauce enjoyer. - I mean, no, I fucking love Korean fried chicken. Korean fried chicken is fucking- - But it's just chicken with a condiment on it. - Do you also get the plain original? - No, I get the, oh, you get the yangnyeom, right? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yangnyeom all the way. - Yeah. - I don't know. That's covered in sauce.
- Practically swimming in sauce. - Just good sauce. I mean, we've had this conversation many times about what I count as a condiment and I don't really count sauce as a condiment. - Fair enough, fair enough. I'm just playing devil's advocate. - You know, because for me, that would mean I would have to, oh yeah, you don't like Nando's, Emily. I can't just. You don't like Nando's, do you? - It's okay.
- That's fucked up. - What? It's okay. I just don't think it's that good. - Oh, but if it was in Korea, it'd be good. - Koreans don't eat Nando's. - We've already achieved peak chicken. - What I like about grilled chicken in the comparative to fried chicken is I feel like I can eat it every day.
Like grilled chicken, I can keep coming back. I don't feel guilty. When I have fried chicken, I'm like, I can't do this again. It's a treat. I can't do this again. It feels like a sin sometimes eating fried chicken. It's fucked up. Yeah. No.
- Nah, it couldn't be me. If fried chicken wasn't as unhealthy, I could eat chicken every day. I fucking love chicken. - I could say that about a lot of things. - I do. I don't think you realize the amount of chicken wings I ate when I was a kid. That was like, my mom had to stop cooking me chicken wings because it was really- - Fuck, I wish that was my upbringing.
- Not to call out my British parents, but they always made this meal and I'd always be like, "No, no." It was called scouse and it was just a big pot of like soup where they would put like potatoes and like lamb in. And we would just eat it for like three days. - That sounds fucking awesome. - No, no, no, no. The lamb was not good lamb. - Oh shit. - It was the kind of lamb where you were like,
- It's like eating a piece of leather. - Oh, it's a stew? - It's like a stew. And it was so good the first day. They'd be like, "Day three." And it was like, you know, this is British. It was the kind of food that you would make fun of. - No, I don't make fun of British food anymore. - Anymore?
- I know this is British from how brown this is. - Oh yeah, look at that. Especially with the port of Liverpool. Yeah, my dad's from Liverpool. So he would always make this. And to be fair, like I think as an adult, I would enjoy it a lot more. But as a kid, you're like, okay, brown. - Brown again. - For like a small period of time, I was fascinated by these like TikToks of this lady who would just keep getting like Chinese food in the UK. He's like, oh, I've got me my Chinese takeout. - Oh, we fucking reacted to this video.
Curry sauce. And I'm like, where's the Chinese? - Look, it's not fair. They don't know. They don't know. They don't know what it looks like. - God, yeah. I mean. - I think British people don't even know what like Mapo tofu is. So Mapo tofu, I don't know Japanese. - I feel like they like it, it's brown.
- No, it's too spicy. - That's fucked up to say. - I'm sorry. - That's fucked up. - What? - That's like me making fun of American food. I'm like, oh, calorie 2000, you love it. - Yeah, you can't, it's true. There's a reason why the stereotype exists. - Yeah, it's true. - Pretty sure it would be like brown food. - I like brown food. - I like it.
- The lack of color is insane. - I'm pretending it's not good, it's amazing. - Not a single bit of green in this bitch. - That is the one thing that I have soured on is that like, this is fire, but I just like wish there was some more green vegetables. 'Cause carrot is a vegetable that wears me down. When I have too much carrot, I'm like- - Let's go onion.
- I don't really count onion as like the vegetable vegetable. - Okay, yeah, that's true. - You're talking about like green vegetables? - Yeah, I'm talking like, I don't know. - It's like potato, you know? If there's a potato in there, I'm like,
- It's a vegetable, I guess. - It's a vegetable, but I don't think it was like a vegetable. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - It's just- - You're talking about like lettuce and like spinach and like that kind of stuff. - Just some greenery that when I eat it, I'm like, yep, that's a vegetable. 'Cause when I eat onion, I'm like, it tastes too good. - I'm like British food just has bad PR a lot of the times. - It does look bad though, you can't deny. - Yeah, I mean, we could learn a thing or two about presentation. - Yeah. - I think that's the biggest thing. - Our food came from necessity.
- Traveling the fucking ocean. - We didn't have enough time to make it pretty. - We did not have enough time to make it pretty. - Meanwhile, you take something French sounding and automatically it makes it sound posh. - Bro. - I fucking hate that shit. - I went to this restaurant and it was a French restaurant. And I was like, okay, I'm not gonna, I was like, I don't really wanna go to a French restaurant 'cause I think you pay a lot for not a lot of food and it's often like, eh. And Italian is just better. Anyway, I'm biased.
This guy comes out and he's like, "This is our best dish on the menu. We won the Croix de Moncheur award." And I was like, "What the fuck is that?" - And then a piece of bread just shows up. - And I'm like, "Okay." And I'm like, "All right, I get it." I shit you not, it's the most British looking food of all time. It comes out in like this bowl. It's brown on brown. It was sausage sticking out like a toad in a hole. And then it was like a crusted layer of like, I don't know how to describe it. And then inside was just beans.
- And I loved it. - Okay, I'm gonna say. - I was very happy, but I'm like, that's fucked up. You could just sit here and be like all French and be like, this is the best sausage from the port of Brittany. - But if they serve the same exact dish in like a Witherspoon's, people would shit on it. - They would be like, what is this? - You want the sausage and beans?
- Yeah, it was so fucking good though. And I was like, this is British. It's gotta be British. It's not French. It's too sloppy. - They're taking our culture now. - Yes. - I'm trying to glorify it. - Just fucking sausage, bean and pastry. - I couldn't finish it 'cause there's so much. And they were like, do you want it to go? And I was like,
- Yeah, okay, sure. Which I'd never been offered before in Japan. Like taking food to go in Japan is like not a thing. Some places do it. I think maybe some American leaning places, but most places just don't offer it. I think even if you're asked, they'd be like, what? - How often did you take things to go in the UK? - Never. - I realized because- - It's like an American thing. - It is very much American. Did you have to do that in Australia? - Not at all. - 'Cause then, you know, if you'd ordered a stupid amount of food in the UK, yes, you have the option to take it home,
Most of the time, most of the time I went out to restaurants, there wasn't anything to take home. - No. - And then I remember going to Wisconsin and for the first time. - Oh man. - Yeah. - Oh man. - My arteries already starting to pulse. - It was like such a culture shock. So we'd go to like these like, you know, traditional Wisconsin restaurants, dineries and stuff like that. And we'd order starters, right? And
It was so weird. It wasn't like the portions of the starters or the portions of the food. That wasn't a cold shot to me because I already knew about that. But obviously we'd order the starters, fucking gorge, we'd be full and I'd be like, all right, I think I can handle some of the main. And it was so weird just seeing at like,
the entire family have like a fat steak or something. And I think Sydney's dad had like two bites and it was just like, all right, yeah, I'm gonna take it home. I'm like, do we not even attempt to eat the food here? I thought like the takeouts was when you had given up. But in Wisconsin, it's just like, okay, it is- - Just getting started. - Yeah, it is today's meal. It is tomorrow's meal as well. - Yeah, it's a natural process. - And maybe a snack for the day after. That was the biggest culture shock for me.
'cause I normally try to, you know, you normally try to fish your food. - It makes sense why the appetizers are so big. - Yeah. - 'Cause you're like, people aren't eating all of this food. - Yeah, yeah. They fill you up on the appetizers. - But I do like that I never feel self-conscious about ordering too much in America. No one judges me. In Japan, you get judged. - They're like, that's it? - Yeah. - Well, dude, I mean, like you said, 10 wings, right? 10 wings in America is the small,
- Yeah, that's what I was thinking. - That's the kids menu. - The only benefit to it in Japan is that you can often try a lot of flavors or try a bunch of things. 'Cause you can order like four things between two people and then somebody like, all right, we can get it. - In America, it's like, you get one thing, you are eating this one thing. - You're getting flavor fatigue. - You ordered buffalo wings. - You are eating buffalo wings only tonight. - And the next day. - And the next day.
- Yeah, it is interesting how that's just become a thing. I wonder like how they even started, like why that became a culture because presumably that wasn't, that used to be the culture. - I have no idea. Just the land of abundance, right? - Yeah. - It's like we have it, so you're gonna have it. - Yeah. - I mean, historians in the comments. - Yeah. - You went to Malaysia recently as well, right? - Yes! - Oh, I wanna go so fucking bad. - Yeah. - How's the food?
- I remember, oh my God, once on our last day before we had to fly, I was like, I'm gonna treat my handlers to like a big dinner at this yummy Malaysian food place. It was like, how many people are there?
how many people were there? There was like five people. We ate until we were stuffed to the gills. Bill came out to like 50 bucks. - Yeah, you sent me a picture of what looked like a King's feast. Like something that Henry VIII would order. She was like, "This is 50 bucks."
- Yeah, Southeast Asia is goaded for that. - LA could never. - I know, God, it was so good. - Where you got one pad Thai, right? - One pad Thai in Thailand. - One pad Thai in Thailand. - Oh my God. - Dude, I wanna go to Malaysia for the food, it's so fucking bad. - You should. - I really wanna go. - I want to, I want to. - Southeast Asia is just fucking goaded when it comes to food. - So goaded.
- Food, taste and price all in one. - You just think it would be close to Japan? It's not that close. - It's really not. - It's pretty fucking long to get there still. It's like seven, eight hours. - Everything feels far from Japan. - Yeah, yeah. Wait, how long is the flight to Malaysia?
- I don't remember. I think it was like six hours. - Five or six hours. - That's such an awkward flight time. 'Cause I feel like I could just fucking- - Oh, seven hours. - Seven hours. - That's such an awkward flight time. It's like, is that like sleeping range or am I just tanking a movie? Like, do I try and get the flight that- - Knowing you, you'd be tanking like seven movies. - Yeah, I'd take seven movies.

- Oh, that's awesome. - Okay, that's handy. - Same for Thailand as well. - Yeah, Thailand, I heard that was nice. - It's perfect, eight hours knockout. - Sure. - You're good to go. - Fuck, the food in Thailand was so good as well. Dude, was it Malaysia as, 'cause when we went to Thailand, we loved the food. Was it as good as Thailand or? - You're trying to get me in trouble. - No, I'm just like- - Can we start like a Southeast Asian food war? - Is it like same level goodness? - Oh, same level? - Yeah. - Yeah, I'd say so.
- Where it's like, I miss it when I leave. - Yeah. - Do you think Korean food is better in the United States than it is in Korea? - That's a controversial question, Garnt. - Okay, okay. The only reason I asked this. - You need to preface that you've spent a lot of time in Korea as well. - Yes. - You don't spend that much time in Korea. - You spend like months at a time there, right? - No.
- The longest I've ever spent in Korea was like a month. - That's still pretty long. - That's longer than any of us. - I guess so, yeah. - You guess, okay. 'Cause the reason I ask this is because whenever I meet an American Asian or it's like, you know, someone like, you know, Malin Vietnamese grew up in California. She is one of three people that I've met now who prefer Vietnamese food from the country they grew up in.
as opposed to the motherland. - Really? - Yeah, 'cause when I spoke to Meilyne and I was like, I went to Korea, I'm sorry, I went to Vietnam and I was like, Vietnamese food is great. Me and Meilyne get competitive up about which one's better between Thai and Vietnamese.
And I was like, but you know, Thai food in Thailand is goaded. And she's like, no, no, no, no. That's because all the good Vietnamese chefs are in America. And I'm like, is this some American propaganda? - That sounds like it.
- I remember this 'cause I said I liked the sausage, the Thai sausage. Do you remember we had that? It's like this really spicy sausage and we had it in Thailand and I was like, "Yeah, I like the Thai sausage." She's like, "Oh, okay. It's pretty better in America." I was like, "What the fuck?" - I will say I haven't had enough Korean food in Korea to really judge, but I guess next time I go, I'll be more mindful of that. - Wow, what a diplomatic response. - I could be a politician.
- I will say- - Perfectly dodged the question. - I will say as someone who's been a tourist to both countries, I do think specifically Korean barbecue is better. - You are a simp for American Korean barbecue. - They just got more cows over there. They just got more meat to give. - They just have so much. - And it's always all you can eat, which just feels good. It just feels good. Even though I don't even eat the amount I probably paid for,
- Just the notion that it's all you can eat. - Just knowing that there's no stress, you know, until someone orders fucking chicken. And then I'm like, why did you order fucking chicken at the Korean barbecue? I hate it. - Uninvite them. - Okay, you're okay, I'm glad you agree. - Why do they order it? Just taint the entire grill, why don't you? - And it's like, oh great, now no one gets to put anything on the grill for 15 minutes. Nice work, asshole. The bulgogi, five seconds and it's done. And it's seasoned. - And it's flavorful. - Yeah. - All right, I need a piss quickly.
I don't really like cream barbecue, though. What? I always walk away smelling like beef. That's the best part. I hate it. Why? I don't like all-you-can-eat.
- It's stressful. - Why is it stressful? - Because I know I'm not gonna eat my money's worth. - I'll eat your portion and mine. - Someone's always gonna cover. - Yeah, I'm gonna cover. I cover, that's my role. - That's why you gotta have one dude or girl there who just eats like three people. - That's why it's good as a fat ass. Like I just love the fact that I don't feel bad about eating.
'Cause for me, I always feel awkward when someone orders a portion and then like, I'm just gonna order like three people's worth. So I feel like, even though it's not a big deal, I just feel like, ah man, they're thinking about how much fucking, how fucking fat I am. - No, no one judges at all you can eat.
- Not annoying to eat at other restaurants, but I feel like all you can eat, it's almost like encouraged to be like, "Yo, Joey's going for a fifth plate. Let's go." - All you can eat is the judge freezer. - It's like, "Oh, you're a fat ass? We welcome that actually." - And then like, maybe it's fun kind of talking strategy. Joey's like crab leg only, not fucking around with the rice. - No rice, no carbs. - No rice, no cheese. - I'm like that every time I go to a Las Vegas buffet. - Emily just said that she doesn't like Korean barbecue.
- That's his favorite. - Yeah, you missed that by the way. - What? - Did you wait for him to leave? - No, I didn't know he felt that passionately. - She just dropped a bombshell. - That's like his favorite. - I don't like it by the way. - Literally every time I go back to somewhere where we have like good Korean barbecue, that's the first thing. Like when we go to LA, the only thing I fucking look forward to is going to a Koreatown and getting Korean barbecue. - Wait, really? - Yes. Every time I go to like Anime Expo, that's like the one meal I always have to have. - This is worth it. - Bar none.
And when we landed in Korea as well, first thing me and Sydney ate was Korean barbecue as well. - I mean, it's good. - It's amazing. I fucking love Korean barbecue. I don't know. - What don't you like about it? Just the fact that you smell like meat afterwards? - No, I just, I don't like the pressure of having to eat. Like, okay, no, no, sorry.
- I'm sorry, I'm having to eat like a lot. - That's the only pressure I love. That's the one time I get to shine. - If it's KBBQ and it's like a course, I'm like, okay, that's good. I know what I'm getting. I know when I'm done, excellent. But if it's like all you can eat, pick from this huge expansive menu,
- See that's what I don't like about yakiniku is a lot of the time it's like you get a certain amount of meat and that's it. I'm like, no, give me the all you can eat. - You've hit like 300 bucks for seven pieces of meat total and then a bunch of sides. - The expensive yakiniku places are a scam.
- Yeah, it's kind of bad value. - It's like, do you want the 100 grams? Oh, this tiny piece of meat you're gonna finish in two bites is $200 actually. - People will hit me up and they're like, you know, they're visiting and they're like, I wanna go to the fanciest Yakiniku place.
- The only time I'll go is when someone else is paying for it. - Yeah, well exactly. I'm like, all right, how many of you? And they're like seven. I'm like, great, I'm gonna get out. - You're like, we're going to Toraji. - There's another one that's really popular called like Ushiguro, which if you're in Tokyo, check it out. There's like seven of them around Tokyo. It's so like ridiculous 'cause they'll have this one where they're like,
- It's try it and then you have to dunk this Wagyu steak that they've like, they cook for you. They don't let you dare cook it yourself because you'd fuck it up. And then you have to dunk it in like egg yolk and that's a whole like thing. And they have so many different things. It's like, yeah, like the beef tartare is fine. - I mean, it looks fucking nice though. - Oh, wait, the one good thing about this place, it's pretty good, is that they give you the fucking, what's it called?
- Katsu sando. - They give you a Wagyu beef katsu sando. - This looks pricey. - I think it's like Niman, like say 150 bucks of course.
- It's pretty good. I mean, for Americans, they're like, "Oh my God, it's like practically free." And I'm like, "Okay, well, hold on now." - We're paying $12 for a pack of eggs over here. - So it's really good though. I recommend it if you're in Tokyo. It's a good chain. - Yeah, it's good to go like once. - Yeah. - You know, just to try it out. - You wanna have a nice little meal if everyone wants to try it, you know, try some expensive cuts. It's good. It's a good like a celebration meal place. - Yeah, totally.
- So me and Sydney watched a film that I think we've all watched now recently, "Nosferatu". - Oh shit, yeah. - Did you watch it too? - Of course. - I was like, I think this is the first time we've- - Huge fan of the 20s movie actually. - I was like, this is so weird because we watched it on a whim and I'm like, damn, everyone's seen this? Is this like a big film or something? - The fucking memes have ruined it for me.
- You must ride it. - Crazy style. - It's so funny. - It's so funny. - You must bow. - I have not seen any memes about this. - Crazy style. - It's the gasp for me that just kills me.
- Have you seen the videos of this girl like doing ASMR dressed as Nosferatu? - Oh, I think I have. - It's so funny. - You're gonna have to explain the memes 'cause I've seen zero memes of this. - I don't even know where it came from, but it was basically just audio from TikTok of someone being, I think it was the original one was like if Nosferatu was trying to rizz up a girl, like in this day and age. - You must bounce on it.
- Oh my God. - That's so funny. - It's so stupid. - I can't fucking like think about it critically now 'cause all I think about is how fucking mean. - Count Orlok, what's in my bag? Yes, go up. Go up, Kai, go up. That one, Count Orlok tries ASMR. What's in my bag? - What the fuck?
This is what the internet was made for. So funny.
- I liked the movie, but it was just weird. - Did you like the movie? - I liked it. - I thought it was kind of ass. - I thought it was boring. - You thought it was boring? - I thought it was kind of ass. - I mean, it was beautiful. Okay. - It took a while to get started, but then when Willem Dafoe showed up, I was like, I'm in. - Yeah, no, that's the thing. It's like, Garnt and I were discussing this earlier before you guys came and we both just like, what is it about like modern day artsy films where like, you know, you'd be talking about it and giving your own personal review, but every single personal review, most of the time ends with,
- Yeah, but Willem Dafoe was good though. - He's fucking phenomenal in everything. I think he's just like fun to watch. - He's the silver lining out of all those like artsy films. - I really liked Scott. - Bill Skarsgård? - Yeah, it's Orlok, bro. He was phenomenal. - See, I think my biggest criticism, 'cause when I watched it, I was like, I don't know why I didn't like that because like cinematography wise, beautiful. - Oh, I know why I didn't like it.
- It's just nothing really happens. - I think my biggest criticism is I didn't give a fuck about any of the characters.
- I mean, it's like, it was one of those films where on a technical level, I went out of it being like, there's so many good things I could say about it. The cinematography was amazing. The acting was great. There were so many like cool shots and cool moments. The makeup and effects as well was excellent. - Visually was great. - Atmospheric as well.
Unfortunately, I just did not give a shit about anything happening. - It did take a long time for it to kind of like- - Pick up. - Yeah. And even the scene where he's like signing and meeting Count Orlok, it's just like so long. - What? I liked it. I was very unsettled.
- Yeah, I mean, I like that. - It's sort of settling for sure. But I'm also just like, man, I've just been watching Lily Rose Debs zonk out for an hour. It's just in her room, just like getting mind fucked by Nosferatu. - She did a great job. - Yeah, she did a great job. But yeah, I don't know. At the end of it, I was just like, yeah, Willem Dafoe is good. - Fucking love Willem Dafoe. - I didn't know anything about Nosferatu or like Nosferatu lore before watching this movie. So I had no idea that it was kind of like,
Kind of like a dark romance. I just thought it was going to be- I didn't know either. It's based off of Bram Stoker's Dracula. I thought it was just a regular monster flick. So the whole time, I was like, why is this vaguely-
- I think it was- - I don't know if I'm getting a weird vibe, but then I realized that's like the point. - No, yeah, like halfway through, I turned to Sydney and I was like, this is about lust and the repression of lust, isn't it? And she Googles it and she's like, "Yep." And I'm like, "Okay."
At least I understand that much. So, you know, I understood the point of the film and I understood kind of like what it was trying to say. I just, sometimes you just see a film where you're just like, damn, I just don't vibe with this. And Nosferatu was definitely one of those things where if you love the Gothic vibe and the Gothic atmosphere, it's like pure like crack, you know? But I don't know. I've just never been, I've never like,
likes that. I've never been interested in that kind of energy. So I was just looking for something, anything to like, I could like grab onto and William Defoe carried most of that. Yeah. Aside from that, I was like, ah, I mean, Lily Rose Depp was really good as well. Like I enjoyed her performance, but just, yeah, again, it's like, I
I don't know. I just don't think they either gave enough time or gave enough like attention to the actual characters you're following. Cause it's like, okay, so there's this girl where there's a Dracula who's living rent free in her head. I don't know. I liked that it was a slow burn. I enjoyed that they kind of like let it like mole and really like build up slowly and just get more unsettling as it did. Right. Right. I enjoyed it. I mean, I think, I think for me it was like just unsettling, but there was never a point where I felt like,
It was just kind of like- - I don't think it's supposed to. - Yeah, yeah, it was kind of, for me, it was just mildly- - Disturbing. - Ooh, creepy. - Yeah, a little bit weird. - It's like a fucking jump scare in the start. There's like a scream right away. - There were a few jump scares now and I think I got pissed off because they were doing jump scares. I was like, "If you want to scare me, you know, do something scary." - Do it properly. - You do it properly, don't rely on a fucking jump scare. - Can't hold on to place the scary maze, what?
But now I want to watch the memes because maybe that'll make watching the film- - Oh, the memes are so funny. - I'll send you some. - They're very funny. - They're so funny. - Oh, it's so grotesque. - Because now looking back on it, I'm like, yeah, that was a very memeable film. Just the way he speaks as well, right? - Yeah.
I'm like, damn bro, get an inhaler, please. Yeah, he literally does like the, you have 72 hours to respond. I just said one where it's like, Count Orlok in the movie, you have three days. I'm counting tonight, by the way. So like, it starts tonight. So it's actually two days.
- Oh my God. - It's so funny. - And you just realize it's just an average NTR. - No, it literally is. - With a fucking bastard in it. - Yeah, I can see all the tags. It's like, "Mindfuck." - "Monsterfucker." - Yeah, "Monsterfucker." - "Mindfuck NTR." - "Mindbreak." - Yeah. - God.
- The scene where like, she's like banging Nosferatu at the end was, that was probably the most disturbing scene. - Yeah. - I'm just like- - That must have been good sex for you to like forget that, hey sunlight fucking killed you. - God damn. - I love the meme of, it's like, what was it? It was like a TikTok where it's like, if Count Orlok survived in the next morning and he's just like, "Oh, my Uber is here."
It's like, oh, so I'm a once and done, am I? It's just like, oh, the sunlight calls me. So good. Yeah, I don't know. I wanted to like that movie.
- I just couldn't. - Yeah, 'cause have you seen, was it "The Lighthouse"? - I have, yes. - I have not. - Was that also Willem Dafoe? - Also Willem Dafoe and the same director as well. - Robert Patterson. - Oh! - And the same director. And I heard that this is, from everything that the director's done, I've watched two of his films now. One of them was "Nosferatu", the other one was "The Witch", Robert Eggers. - Yeah, Robert Eggers has done quite a bit, eh? - Both of those films, I just did not like. - Really?
I appreciated them from like a artistic perspective and a critical perspective. - Oh, he did the Northman as well. - Which movie? - We're talking about the lighthouse. - I love the lighthouse. - Yeah. - Cause it's same director. - Yeah, I know. - Yeah. - Robert Eggers. - And I was saying, cause I was like, is the lighthouse like Nosferatu? Is it worth watching? Most because I've seen two of Robert. - Quite different. - I've seen two of Robert Eggers movies. One was obviously Nosferatu. The other one was the witch and both of them, I just like,
I mean, they're definitely weird. Yeah, it's weird. It's atmospheric and just didn't vibe with me. So I'm like, is the lighthouse any better? Any different? I'd say if you like, you're a fan of more like classical theatrics, like kind of just watching two men just act. Right. It's really good.
Okay. Oh, the other movie I watched from him. I think it's it's him anyway. Can you scroll up a bit? I think the Northman. Yeah, that's a great movie. Which is also a very weird film. Yeah. It's basically just like it's like it's like psychedelic Vinland Saga. Oh, okay. Yeah. All of his movies are fucking weird. That's why a lot of people really like his style. Yeah. You know, you go in and you you leave thinking like, okay,
- What was that? - Yeah, that was a lot. - But I think it's more important to say something than nothing at all, right? - Yeah. - Totally. - But yeah, he's such a good fucking guy. He also made- - He's done quite a few. - Yeah, oh, not Midsommar. - No, he didn't. - No, he didn't do that. - The Batman? - No, he didn't do those. - I think these are just recommendations. - Oh, these are recommendations. - Scroll down. - Yeah, just click on Robert Eggers. - Right there. - There you go. - What else did he do?
Lighthouse Nosferatu. Oh, just those four. Just those four. Yeah, I think just those. So I've seen half his filmography. I've seen three. Well, the Lighthouse is his highest rated. I haven't seen The Witch yet. I've never watched The Witch, actually. Yeah, me and Sydney watched The Witch in theaters when it came out. Oh, wow.
And I'll be honest, I'm gonna hold up my head up and say, I didn't get it. This is back in the day and me and Sydney both hated this film. And then she comes back and we watched like when this came out. So it was like years and years ago. - Oh, "Tanya Taylor-Joy".
- Yeah. - What isn't she in? - Yeah, right. - She's in fucking everything. - Yeah. - And it's only recently that Sydney came back and watched this and she was like, "I think this is one of my favorite horror movies now." - Damn. - So I'm like, "Damn, what happened, Sydney?" I thought we were one and the same. Well, I remember Emily, 'cause we sometimes have horror nights because you're like me, you never got into horror before, but you're slowly, slowly,
getting into that world thanks to Sydney's influence. Yeah. What films did you watch last time you had the horror night? Oh, Sydney had us watch like four in a row. She was like, you're going to stay here because you were gone. And she was like, you're going to stay here and watch horror movies with us. And we're like, four movies in one night? Yeah. Jesus. Wait, so what did you watch?
- Do any of them stick? - Describe what the plot of the one that stands out the most to you. - Oh my God, what was it? - Very memorable. - That must be good. - Great cinema night. - Wait. - Really good cinema night. - What did we watch?
Four movies apparently. No, no. I don't remember the first one we watched. I don't remember that one for some reason. Yeah. We watched, there were a couple of bad ones. So the bad ones kind of overrode. So many are bad. Yeah. I feel most horror movies are bad. We watched like a Korean horror movie about like these streamers trying to live stream. Oh, she showed me that one as well. It was bad. I wasn't even scared. Do you know what pissed me? I think it was like,
Gong jam or something like that? - Just anything involving social media. It's so easy for me to get taken out of it because I'll hear something, I'll be like, that's not accurate. - Okay, so, so. - Quick, write the hashtag to save her. - Guys, our stream has 1 million viewers.
I'm like get fucking real. - All right, what do you think you are? - Okay. - What are you Mr. Beast? - Fucking I show speed right here? No, no, no. - Yeah, they were like, if we get a million views, we'll get a hundred thousand dollars. And I'm like, I wish that's how it works. - Yeah, right? - Yeah. - That movie was ass. - This was, do you know what took me out of this movie aside from the social media stuff? - What?
So the premise is they go into this haunted fucking house and going into like all the corridors, like the downstairs bit. Not once does the stream...
- Like the stream quality, like dip at all. It's like perfect 4K quality, 100% all the time. I'm like- - It's similar to like the Skype movie back in the day. It was like perfect quality cameras. You're like, "Brother, Skype never looked this good." - It's like, what'd you do? Like connect a cinema camera to your HDMI? - Yeah, right?
- Yeah, I don't know why Sydney loves this horror movie. She shows this to everyone and I'm just like, why? - I love the tag reference to YouTube.
- How could you, presumably she's watched it like three or four times then. - Yeah, she's- - I can't watch a single movie that much in my life. - Also, I don't know why, I just don't find ghosts scary. - Same, anything involved, I think it was I don't believe in ghosts. So I'm not, it doesn't tap into any like internal fear that I have. I'm just like, oh, I don't know. - See, I do believe in ghosts, but I don't like, I don't believe ghosts do this kind of shit. 'Cause I'm just like, if you're around,
why the fuck are you trying to fucking terrorize people? And that's all you want to fucking do? - Right. I mean, I believe in ghosts as well and this shit scares the fuck out of me. - I'm just like, you never know, they might. - I don't like paranormal stuff and I don't like exorcisms. - Yeah. - I mean, the exorcism stuff can get pretty like one note. - Yeah, I'm like, ah, here we go again. - It's like, oh, the girl is being, oh, she's got the devil in her.
I'm gonna pour some water on that bitch. For me, the scariest horror movies are the ones where it's like, oh, it's a person. Yeah, a person who's like fucking unhidden. Yeah, because I'm like, oh, that could happen. Like psychopath serial killer shit. Yeah. Right, right.
- I like, not exactly ghosts, but like kind of like outer worldly stuff, like Lovecraftian stuff I really like as well. - Like the alien horror? - Yeah, like the alien kind of horror as well. - Like The Thing? - Oh, The Thing's fucking- - The Thing is one of the most scary movies I've ever watched. - Oh, I really like The Thing. - It's great, but it's- - I like alien horror too. - Yeah, it's great, but my God, I can only watch that every now and then. - Also, you know why- - Oh, go ahead. - You know, I'm not a fan
I'm surprised that Sydney's so into horror movies because I didn't realize how many of them utilize the flashing lights. It's excessive. She fucking loves horror movies because she just has to power through it. Sometimes she'll be playing a horror game and she's like, "Yeah, I got like three quarters of the way through the game until I had to just stop because there was a flashing light moment."
Or the worst thing is she'll ask me to play through it. And I'm like, honey, I fucking hate horror games. This is terrifying. I don't want to do this, but I'll do it for you just to get through the segment. It's made me like, I guess a lot more aware of when I see flashing lights. Cause that isn't, I do this thing now where anytime we're watching anything and we see a lot of flashing lights, we go, this would kill Sydney.
- This would kill Sydney. - 'Cause we had a Horror Night and Dynast really wanted to show Sydney Alien, the original Alien. - Oh my God. - Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Sydney hadn't watched the original Alien? - She had never watched the original Alien. - What? That's like the best horror film ever. - Yeah.
Sydney has a weird definition of what she counts as horror. - How is that not horror? - Alien is definitely more. - It is horror, but she's- - It's fucking horrific. - She doesn't really watch like sci-fi horror, you know, 'cause she would count- - Wow, 'cause it's in space, it's not horror? - Yes, yes. - That's like the scariest place ever.
- God forbid mixing three genres together. - Yeah. - It is so fucking good. - It's so good. - And what we didn't realize is that Sydney couldn't watch half of this film. - It's just plastic. - It's an old movie. - It's an old movie and the second half of it,
where they're trying to escape from the aliens. There's this like alarm that goes off and it is just like flashing fucking light on screen permanently. So we were watching and half of the film experience was Sydney, look away now. And we'd wait like five minutes. - Sydney right now they're running and the monster is right behind them. Oh, and then right now it's, we'll give her a play by play. - Live commentary, we'll give her a live commentary. And it's like,
- Okay, Sydney, I think it's safe. She looks, 30 second passes, flashing lights together. And we're like, oh no, no, okay, okay. Back to live commentary. - Damn. - Fuck. - But yeah, that just- - That film's so good. - It is a really, really good film.
I haven't seen the new one though. - I watched the new one, I really liked it. - I liked it. - Alien Romulus. - I've heard good things about it. - I really enjoyed it. The actors were phenomenal. - They cast like the saddest looking actor for the robot guy. - Dude, he was amazing. - It broke my heart. - He was so good. He was playing a robot, but then his orders kept changing and he shifts personality so good in it. He's really phenomenal acting. The thing I didn't like is that they had like a guy that was dead
like an actor who had died. And they used AI to bring him back. It was just uncomfortable. I was like, yeah, I'm sure maybe he's like, I don't know. Don't you feel like maybe he should not? I don't know. I felt uncomfortable. I don't know. I was like, surely we could just cast someone. I'm okay with...
Like, you know, when they cut back to, because I saw that they've been doing this technology lately where they have young actors. Yeah. They're like just... Yeah, they did it on The Irishman. Yeah, The Irishman where they make him look... Where they made Robert De Niro, but the younger version of him, but it's AI modified. My brain is okay with...
seeing not the person be played by a younger, you know what I mean? Like I'm not, I don't need to be, oh, this is not Robert De Niro. I can't look at this. - Get someone who like maybe looks a little bit like young Robert De Niro. It doesn't have to be one-on-one. - I'm like, you know, it's whatever. Like I just kind of, I was like, all right, whatever. Didn't really like fuck with that, but yeah. - Do you have any irrational fears? 'Cause it's weird to me that sometimes Sydney can be fine with all this, but like,
She can't stand me listening to like a science video about black holes because that fucking, for some reason, it's just black. It's not like an everyday threat though. I know. It's maybe because it's too, like the doom is too existential. Do you have any rational fears? I'm just scared of dying in general or more specifically, I'm scared of like being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
- What do you mean? - That's my biggest fear. - Like how so? - Like, okay, for example. - That sounds like it's so cryptic. I'm scared of being under the sun on the fourth day. - Like, you know, we all know like planes are- - Oh, right, right, right. - It's the safest form of transportation. I'm well aware of that. Like I know the statistics, right? - Yes. - My fear is that I'm gonna be on like the one plane that,
- My fear is that I'm fucking going down watching fucking Garfield the movie. This is gonna be the last thing I see. - The last thing I see before I die. - It's fucking Chris Pratt eating a fucking lasagna. That's what I'm worried about. - I fucking hate it 'cause we fly often, right? And I've never had a fear of flying or fear of planes or really thought about it, but just the one too many news pieces that are coming out right now about things happening with planes that every time I get on a plane, like when we went to Switzerland,
- I was just like, hmm. - I've seen that thing flip, it's crazy. - Chris does this thing that annoys the fuck out of me. He has like this app that basically- - I know, I hate it. - You know this one, right? It's like this app that he has that shows the percentage of this particular flight that you're about to get on crashing. - Why? - I don't know, 'cause he's an idiot. - One time we were on a plane that was so small, 'cause it was obviously like not a very popular route, and he's like, "There's no information about it."
- Fucking hell. - Yeah, when Chris and I got on the four person Cessna, like this tiny little plane where we flew it over Sakurajima, he was just like, "Oh, I've heard that Cessnas have a one in five chance of crashing." I'm like, "Chris, we're about to get on this fucking thing." - Why would you tell me that? - Why would you tell me this right now? - Cessnas are pretty safe. - Yes, it was fine. It was a bit bumpy, but it was fine. - Helicopters now, that was, I did, I do not like being in those for long. - I would not go into a helicopter.
- I would feel like an experience, but definitely not a regular thing. - Yeah. - Oh, I'm scared of bears. - You're scared of bears? - Yeah. - I mean, who isn't? - I'm scared of bears. I'm scared of heights. - Oh, you're scared of heights as well? - Yeah. - Deers? - Oh. - Okay. - What? Are you scared of deer? - No, I'm scared of deers. - You're scared of- - You wanna go to Nara sometime? - No, I'm not scared of deers. I just think like the big deers are kind of like intimidating.
'Cause they're fast, they're so nimble. - But like, they wouldn't kill you unless you did something to provoke them. - You can say that about anything. - This man won't kill me unless I provoke him. - That's like when you go to the UK, I'll be like, "No, he won't kill you, he won't stab you, just provoke him." - You can survive a stab. - Are you scared of the ocean? - Yeah. - Okay. - Have any of rash, I feel like everything
- I'm scared of it. - Everything's like rational. - I never felt, you know, whenever I see the plane crashes, I never really feel like, eh, I'm like whatever. But then I saw the one with the one in Korea and I was like, that was pretty bad. - That one shook me up. - I was like, that's fucked. - Why did it? - So normally- - I haven't seen the video. - So it's basically just like this plane comes into land and I guess the brakes aren't working. I wasn't sure, but it just slams into a wall and just explodes.
- Yeah. - And I was like that, it just looks so visceral and so fast. I was like, Jesus Christ. - I think the best things with those kinds of things is that- - Everyone's dead instantly. - It's instant death and you don't see it coming. But because of that,
every time the plane lands or takes off now, there's this voice in the back of my mind being like, "This might be your final moments to live now." And I fucking hate that this has started because of all the plane crashes that has come out. - See, I'm the opposite. I have this positive mentality of as the plane is coming into land, I'll be like, "This isn't the one."
- You're like, "I'm different." - There's not much turbulence coming in, we'll be good. - I'm sure the people on the Canadian flight felt like that too. - I know, I know. I'm just telling myself it's not gonna happen to me. - Have you guys had any bad turbulence before? - Of course. - It's happened once to me.
It's the scariest thing. Yeah, yeah. Because I remember the worst turbulence I've had. It was actually during dinner service. And the plane fucking just whoop. And everything went everywhere. People were screaming. And it just happened for a second. But in that moment, I was like,
This is it. This is it. - You know what's the worst thing though is that like after that extremely sudden and terrifying moment happens, the fucking pilot comes on and he's like, "Oh, that was a bit bumpy. Wasn't it, boys?" Like it was nothing. It was like meanwhile, everyone's just like shaking and traumatized and being like, "Are we gonna die?" - I think that's like an area or in Asia where I think you can fly over pretty often in Japan where there's like a really bad turbulence zone where you'll just get those sudden drops.
- I think I had it happen and I was like, damn, that's fucking scary. - Yeah, it's like, why the pilot, do we have to go this way? - It's kind of like an earthquake though, you know? 'Cause like the turbulence can ramp up or go down after the first shake. And so like earthquakes, when it starts shaking and you're like, is it gonna get worse or better now? - It's like turbulence on the ground. - Yeah, right? Turbulence is like that too where you're like, just one shake is all right. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - But I fully believe that turbulence, 'cause you know, you look at the stats and it's very, very rare for,
- A plane to crash because of turbulence. - Yeah. - Right? - I mean, that's why the pilots are usually like calm as shit. Like right after it happens. - Planes can like survive like a direct lightning strike as well. They're pretty durable. - My rule of thumb is if it starts to get a little bit dicey, I always look at the flight attendant. - Yeah. - And if the flight attendant looks calm, then I know I'm okay.
But if the flight attendant starts sweating. - What am I gonna do? - There's nothing I can do, right? - When this happens, I'm like, why the fuck did you stop my Garfield movie? Let it fucking play. Yeah, I can tell it's bumpy. Why are you gonna tell me that? - Like seatbelt has been on. Don't worry, boy. - Have you ever thought about that? 'Cause I did think about that, that one time I got really bad turbulence where I'm like,
If the plane crashes and this is my last moments, what would I do? What would you do in those last moments? I'd be like, what can you do? Nothing. There's nothing you can do. Come to terms with your life. I'd be like, shit, this is it. I was actually doing that.
I was like, these are my last moments. I'm gonna see what YouTube videos I have downloaded. I wanna be watching a bang and when I go down. - I respect it, I respect it. - If I'm going down, I'm going down with a soundtrack. - No, holy shit. I actually, same, I was like, YouTube videos, what music do I have downloaded as well? What am I going down to? If I can't call my loved ones, call my family,
Maybe I'll like record like a final message on my phone or something. - And then be like, oh shit, chapel. - I think when that one plane got shot at not too long ago, like with guns, there's dudes when it was being shot, they were just filming videos 'cause they were close enough to the ground for the signal to send it. So they were like filming videos being like, yeah, we're just being shot at. - Do they live? - I think some people died, I think some people lived 'cause they ended up crashing, but I think some people survived. - God damn.
It was kind of crazy. It's hardcore. Yeah. Because people were taking pictures, you know, their phone out and it's like, all right, I pretty would document it, I think. I would try it. Because I'd like to think that maybe if I die, at least my, the footage of the event will survive. Yeah. At least help people kind of pick, you know, pick, make a story. What is life but stories? Sure. Would you make a tweet? Yeah.
- I don't know if it would sound- - Going down the mouth. - You got the airplane Wi-Fi, you're like, I got time to make one tweet. - I'm gonna make this a banger. - I think I'd do a video. I think I'd film a video and just hope that it gets my phone like just survives. - Yeah. - 'Cause I think it'd be more powerful. - No, didn't you say you wanted to go live if you could? - Dude, no, that was the Hawaii thing. I'd go live. - Oh, the missile thing. - I'd go live. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- See, 'cause like, I assume with like airplane wifi, there won't be enough to like, you know, go live or upload a video. But I'm like, I think you can get away with a tweet. - Tweet might be able to get, but also you have signal pretty far off the ground. - Yeah. - Don't ask me why I know this. - Why do you know that? - I always turn on my phone and go to airplane mode, gone every single time. It's pretty high up. So you probably got like genuinely like two minutes.
- Two minutes? - To get that tweet. - Two minutes of free fall? - Yeah, 'cause I've timed it a couple of times. You have about five minutes, not five minutes, man, like two minutes as you're going up before the signal cuts out. - Oh really? - Yeah, you can still like text and do stuff.
- So you got two minutes to make a bang. - It depends where you are though, actually, to be fair. - True. - 'Cause what if you like crash into like the mountains? - Well, no. - Where there's no signal. - Yeah, that too. If you just taken off at the airport, you probably still have signal for a little while. - True. - Interesting. - Oh God. - Yeah. - Food for thought, huh? - Yeah. - I think I would ask, I think I would hope that I would have a beer.
like as it's the turbulence is happening. So I can go. - One fight. - You know when the drink, like you mentioned during the meal service, it's shaking. 'Cause my go-to is to like grab the fucking. 'Cause I'm like, I don't want the shit over me 'cause it happened to me and the fucking tea went all over me. - Yeah. - I wanna be the one dude in businesses going down being like, cheers boys. - Let's go. - There is a non-zero chance that it wouldn't happen. Because why not?
- Yeah, why not? - You can't do anything else. - I just, you know, when shit's going down and people start screaming, I'm like, God, I hope I'm not a fucking screamer. - I would be, unfortunately. - God, I hope I'm not a screamer. Why? What's the point? It's going to shit. You may as well just enjoy it. - Oh yeah. Easy enough to say. - I feel like,
- So fucking distracting. I'm trying to figure out what the fuck's going on and everyone's screaming. Yeah, why are you screaming? - Guys, shut up, I can't hear the Garfield movie. - I think I'd be like a silent crier, like hyperventilating in the corner. - I respect it. - Yeah.
- I'm not disrespecting. - I'm not disrespecting. You know what we can all, 'cause it's so hard to think when someone's screaming. - It's like if you're gonna panic, please internalize it. - If someone starts screaming during turbulence, and I understand that it's scary, but at the same time, like, you know, if we really were in the shit here, we need to make a game plan.
I can't really think what's going on. - What the fuck's the game plan? - Well, look, maybe- - Just pray. - No, no, no. Well, look, like what if it's like a hostage situation? I'm like, I can't even think what I want to do here. I'm like, ah, man, I wanna try and, you know. I'm like, shut up, Susan. - He's like, let me think. Let me figure out how to get past this.
And also, if I was dying, I would like to have a little bit of silence. Is that too much to ask? Is that crazy to me to ask? You know what thought I have when I go on the planes now? Do you ever, like when you go to the bathroom, you're like, man, I really hope the plane doesn't go down while I'm using the toilet. I think that every time I go.
- No, it's like- - Is it 'cause you're shitting? - Yes. - Presumably you'd have time to flush. You could like fucking panic button. - Yeah. - But I don't know. It's just- - It's like turtling. - I don't want my final like-
- Like position to be like on the shitter. - Look, I think if the plates going down, I don't think the toilet will be perfectly hermetic like sealed. And this is the cabinet that was weirdly safe where Emily was taking a shit. - It's not embarrassing. - It happens at the worst times, death. - Yeah, I think for me, I get those thoughts whenever we're landing. 'Cause I think now with all these plane crashes, I've learned too many stats where you're most likely
something's most likely to go wrong during takeoff and landing. I remember during the Swiss...
when I was like, I swear to God, if my last view on this earth is Connor watching Garfield, I'm gonna be so fucking pissed. - This is the real thing. That's why we keep mentioning the Garfield. I watched Garfield, it was not good. - I can't imagine it would be. - No, it was fun though, but it wasn't good. But then I went to bed listening to a three hour documentary about the Vietnam war and I thought that would not be a great one to go out. - No.
- No, that would not. Oh man. So fucking yeah. Well, I know what's going on with planes right now, but that is like new fear unlocked, you know? - Is it though?
- Kind of, 'cause it gives you like a thought that you never really thought about before. - I still think man, like every time I drive, I still feel like it does just feel way more dangerous. Like whenever I'm in a car. 'Cause I'm like, it's so easy for just one dickhead to ruin it. - Of course. - Yeah, no, I agree. It's not like I'm fucking, I can't fly anymore, but now it's just like that little voice in my head that's just like- - Like what if this is the one? - Yeah, what if this is the one? - No, 'cause you're thinking about like gotcha odds.
But that's how I like live like my entire life. Like bungee jumping. I'm like, the odds are so low. I could never. The fucking jumping out of an airplane. Odds are pretty good. You know what? The odds are zero if you stay on the ground and you don't go skydiving. I feel like you're the kind of person where you'd be like, Connor, I'm not, I'm not, I would never skydive. And then like you get hit by a truck watching me skydive. With my life.
- I drank one too many monsters get a brain aneurysm. - Like I feel like, you know, it's, it's, I, I, there's so much comfort in numbers, you know? So I just kind of like, I roll the dice. - He's a math kind of man. - Yeah, I feel like it's, the odds are so low on a plane. - All right, so you're in a plane. It crashes and you're, everyone's going down basically. - I hope I'm dead.
or do you fight until the very last moment? Do you usually like try to like guide yourself to the trees being like, I can, I've seen enough fucking survival videos of how to survive a plane crash without a parachute. Don't ask me why I've watched these videos, but you know. - Now, when the turbulence was really bad one time, I started just kind of like being like, all right,
- I was like, if this is it, it's been good. - I've had a good run. - I hope people are sad for at least a little bit. Like a little while. - In the meantime, Jason Statham will keep me company. - The Megalodon isn't gonna go watch itself.
I don't know. I mean, like, again, it just always comes back to like, what, like it's out of my control. Like, I think like accepting that you have no control is like a tough thing to do, but when you're comfortable with it, it's kind of nice.
- No, I get it. - I agree. - You're like, I can reach Zen and watch the Garfield movie now. - Yeah, 'cause I always have this, I always have that thought process whenever we go through an earthquake, right? - Earthquakes are way scary, I think. - Earthquakes are scary, but also sometimes I think we go through it so much that it's almost like desensitize us to like the danger. - I don't know, we haven't gone through a bad one. - But when is the point where you're like,
I should act for my own self-interest and my own safety. - That's what scares me, right? What scares me about the earthquakes is not the earthquakes, but what's gonna happen afterwards. Is everyone gonna be like, "Oh, fucking, everyone, every man for himself." I don't know, if the water shut off for weeks. That shit's terrifying. So I'm like, I've never had to worry about sourcing water.
If that happened to me, I think that stress would fuck me out. - Yeah, for sure. - And I would actually like age. - Do earthquakes scare you Emily? Do earthquakes scare you when you've had earthquakes in Japan? - Not really, but I think it's 'cause I haven't felt like a super. - We've had bad ones. - Yeah, every time they happen, I'm like. - Dude, when I see video footage of like the 2011 one, and I'm like Jesus Christ. 'Cause I look at my room, I'm like, yeah,
this is going to break. Oh yeah. Like half the shit I have is just positioned in a way that it would not survive that level of earthquake. If I were on like a high floor and I felt an earthquake, I'd probably panic a little bit. But I think every time I felt it, I was like on ground floor. So I was like, okay. I think it's scary on the ground floor for me. Really? Yeah, because I'm in like a high floor building and it just rolls. It's kind of like the hotel we were at in LA. The, um,
- The Intercontinental where on the 70th floor. It kind of rolls. - Yeah, that was creepy as fuck. - So you get this weird thing where like you can feel the shake, but then you also like hear the walls creak before you feel anything. - Oh, I don't like that. - That's what creeps me out is that I hear the creaking of the wall before I feel anything. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - 'Cause the building obviously now is gonna start rolling. It's really creepy, but it feels kinda nice.
- Pleasant. - It is definitely trippy. 'Cause that was the first earthquake I ever experienced was the LA. - Oh really? - Yeah. - Just kind of sick that we kind of like fucking man built the structure that can withstand it. - Withstand the mother earth. - Withstand the fucking earth shaking. This is fucking neat. - Yeah, I'd actually be way scary, way more scared in my home than I would be in like a hotel like that because the amount of,
- Yeah, my home is not earthquake proof at all. I'm just thinking about the amount of shit I have on shelves and stuff. - Oh yeah. - Oh my God. - Yeah. Every time I look at like my six bookshelves, I was like, this is gonna be bad. - Japanese mentality, right? It's not about like preventing it all the time. It's like, all right, pick up the pieces when it breaks. - Yep. - Just get it, just redo it. - Exactly. - Yeah. I'm like, all my glasses are gone. - Yep. - Everything's gonna be gone. - God, I can't imagine what experiencing a tsunami is like.
That seems like the ultimate scary one. Yeah. Just imagine a fucking wave sweeping into your house. Like, what the fuck do I do? Like, I remember seeing this... I remember seeing this...
like documentary on like mega tsunamis back when I was a kid. And I'd been like, always like morbidly interested in them like ever since then. And it's so weird because you know, when I watched it as a kid, it was all like CG renditions of what a tsunami looks like. And then we'd have like the Thailand tsunamis or like, you know, the Indian Ocean tsunamis. And then, you know, more recently Japan. And it's just so fucking surreal seeing like people like ground tsunami
of like what a tsunami actually looks like. - It's fucking terrifying. I don't know. I think the sheer power of tsunami is just fucking terrifying. - Yeah. It's, I don't know, it fascinates me though. Especially like mega tsunamis. Holy shit. Especially after seeing Interstellar. - I mean, that one's crazy. - That's crazy. And I'm just like, damn. - Luckily fictional. - Damn, how would I feel if I saw a wave coming in of that size? - My toxic traits thinking I could just dive into it.
- You know how like when the wave comes on the beach. - Like a wonder wave. - My toxic train is thinking that I'll be all right. But also you'll be swept into something with such force, you'll probably be like knocked out. - This is the same mentality as when Sydney was like, you can just dodge a tsunami by being in a pool. - Did she say that? - She said that. - And I was just like, what?
- No, you cannot. - I mean, yeah, no. If you were in like a sealed bunker, you might be able to hold out there for a while. But like that would have to be one fucking good bunker. - Yeah, it'd have to be like a fucking nuke bunker. - Can you search up the largest mega tsunami that's ever been recorded? 'Cause I think it was in like a cove in Canada, I think.
- Largest mega tsunami in history. Oh no, Alaska Bay. - 1,700 feet away. - 1,700 feet away. But there was eyewitnesses of this tsunami. - How did people in the '50s survive that?
- It's been far away. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was far away enough. - It was terrifying. - And I'm like, 1,700 feet, that's like skyscraper level. Can you imagine a body of water that fucking big just coming towards you? - It'd be GG's. - Oh man, GG's. - Watch the "Gothfield" movie. - I'm starting to get the idea you like it a lot more than you are leading me to believe. - It's growing on me.
- Chris Pratt does it again. - He wasn't bad in it. He wasn't terrible. - God damn. - Do I wish they cast someone else? Yes, but he wasn't bad. He got done. He got done. - What's the natural disaster you think you can most likely survive? Okay, what have we got? We got tsunamis. I think that's GGs, honestly. - Earthquake? - No, I'd win. - Earthquake? - No, I'd win. - Earthquake, volcano?
- Volcano is like the easiest. - Yeah, just don't be near the volcano. - You can say that about any tsunami, don't be near the tsunami. - 'Cause like lava, unless you're not like literally next to it as it erupts, 'cause it does have like a sonic boom. Like, it's like fine.
- Well, actually, what was it? Like Mount Helena or something in the States in like the '50s? That was a massive eruption. - Yeah. - And like fucking wiped out the entire area. - Well, it's not the lava. It's the fucking ash clouds that comes afterwards that you need to really be worried about. - Like that huge one in Iceland fucked up Europe for a while, right? - Yeah, that'd be ash in there. That's also just 'cause it would, 'cause you put fucking ash in the atmosphere. - 10 times natural disasters, tsunamis, hurricanes,
earthquakes, tornadoes. Honestly, wildfires seem like the worst one. I could survive a hailstorm.
- I don't know, have you ever been to like a fucking big one? - No. - Have you been outside during a hail storm? - No. - That's the tech, go inside. - Some of them, some of them hails are like that big. - Just don't be outside, forehead. - Bro, it's... - Damn. - She's good. - She's taking out the strut. - God, tornadoes as a concept just,
feels so weird to me. They almost don't feel real. You know what I mean? Whenever I hear about like tornadoes in America, basically. - In like the Midwest and stuff. - It almost feels like a fucking Hollywood thing. And then you see like footage of it and I'm like. - I always get reminded of like Twister. - Yeah. - In the movie. - Yeah, right? - Yeah. - Mudslides seem horrific too. - Oh, mudslide. - Mudslides are horrible. - Yeah. - Just getting swept up by a bunch of poop. - I mean, these all sound like they suck. - Yeah. - To be fair. - I don't know, tornadoes kind of mean.
Is it? To look at, not to be near. From a distance. I feel like if there's any where you get prior warning beforehand, like, hey, this is going to happen, and then you have time to leave, then I think I'd be okay. But if it's something that can happen in an instant. Avalanches terrify me. Just because you survive afterwards, and you're just like, and it's just like, well, you can survive afterwards, but it's just...
The fear of having an avalanche and just being buried and just being like, well...
maybe someone will find me. Maybe this is just gonna be more fun. - Or maybe I'll be like fucking Avatar and just be like in the snow for the rest of my life. - Dude, I remember I was skiing one time and I went off the course and I fell into like a giant pit of like powder. And I like was up to like here in like powder snow. And I was trying to climb out and it was so hard. And if my brother wasn't there to like help me out, I'm like, I don't know what I like genuinely would have like done. Like I'm pretty sure I could have got out maybe with enough effort,
That wasn't even an affluence. I just fell into a pile of snow. - Yeah, it was so scary. - I couldn't get out. - Yeah, fuck that. - You know what? As a kid, I always thought quicksand was gonna be my own doing. - Holy shit, quicksand. - I was about to say quicksand. - Why as a kid, why was I prepared? - Is quicksand real? - Yeah. - Yeah, it's real, but it's- - As a kid, I was prepared so much for quicksand. They were like, "Oh, quicksand, if you get in it, don't move. Don't move." - The first time I watched the first "Mommy" movie, that's what grew the irrational fear of quicksand for me. - Every cartoon would have a quicksand in it at some point.
I don't know why. - I'd be like, that looks like a terrible death. - It is terrifying just looking at someone being like sucked into the earth and they can't get out. - I think like the most recent fear that I've unlocked is like, I guess- - Singles. - Dude. - I was about to say singles. - The one in Japan where they found the truck? - Singles. - In another area? - Yes. - That's another wrong place at the wrong time type of situation I do not want to be in.
- Oh my God. - Yeah, the one that happened recently was really bad. 'Cause normally they're pretty good at fixing it up, but it was a really bad, I think gas line that they hit or a sewage line. - The one that fucked me up was the footage of, I don't know where it was, but I just saw the footage of where a sinkhole formed in a public pool.
And it's like in the middle of the public pool. And you can just see this water just getting sucked in while all these people are in the water. And they're like trying their hardest to get out of the pool. - Okay, Miphyra unlocked. - Fucking terrifying to watch. - Miphyra unlocked. - Why are we Googling sinkhole? - So this giant truck got sucked into the sinkhole in Japan lately. And they found it like, I think like a hundred meters away. - Oh my God, really? - This entire driver. - Did they find the guy? - He's a hundred percent dead.
- He was stuck in a sinkhole. - Truck driver missing for three days. Oh no, he survived. He said truck driver, oh, missing for three days. - Oh shit. - Yeah, show the footage of this one. It looks insane. - Maybe the South China morning post, yeah, that one. - It's fucking, look at that. - Oh my God. - It's like found the truck recently, like nowhere near. - Oh, it's inside, Domo. - Yeah, apparently this one's really bad. - Whoa, that's huge.
Oh my God. That's terrifying. And the fact that it just like randomly is like one day they're just like, yeah, I'm going to open up now. It's to do with sewage lines, right? I think. Is it? I could be wrong. I'm pretty sure it's to do with like the sewage pipes when they leak or gas pipes when they leak. It's something to do with that. That caused like a...
- Lowering of groundwater levels can cause a loss of support for the soft material. - Oh, okay, okay. - That's how they naturally fall. - I could be wrong. - Maybe this one was different or I'm just fucking dumb and wrong. - That image there is fucking terrifying. That's like a horror movie. - Just like a whole spawns underneath you. You can't do anything. - It's like, oh, this goes to hell by the way.
- Why are we talking about scary things? - Sorry, sorry. - Sorry, sorry. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's not scary. - It's
- I don't know how it happened. Just one day I mentioned like, oh, I've never seen King of the Hill. And Dydus is like, it's actually a really good show. You should watch it. And we started watching it and now we're on season six. - Is it a good show? - I think it's good. I like it. - You can't say that after six seasons. - No, no, I like it. - That makes you sound like you don't like it. - No, no, I like it. I think I just, I like the earlier seasons better, but that's every show. - It fell off. - Are you gonna watch the whole thing?
There's like 14 seasons, right? Are you going to watch all of them? I'm already halfway through. No, you're not. Seven is halfway through. You can turn around now. Is it you guys actively watching it or are you guys just having King of the Hill in the background? No, we're actively watching it. I make dinner, we sit down, chicken broccoli on the table, King of the Hill. Oh my God. Oh, 13. I am halfway, kind of. 260 episodes. Goddamn.
- That's so many. - I like it, it's a fun show. - I know, actually. - But also, yeah. - That's the thing, I'm gonna watch all of "The Simpsons." - No, "The Simpsons," it hasn't ended yet, right? - "The Simpsons" has like 30 seasons. - Yeah. - No. - No, no, no, it's still going. - Exactly, yeah, no, I couldn't. - Yeah, I mean, "Modern Simpsons," I don't even know what's going on with "Modern Simpsons." - "Modern Simpsons" is ass. - Yeah, it just confuses me about who is still watching "The Simpsons." - Like, who's it for now?
- Apparently the last season wasn't too bad. - No, apparently the last season wasn't too bad. But I'm like, I don't know a single person who still watches The Simpsons. Everyone talks about, okay, the OG Simpsons. - Yeah, the only time people mention I watch The Simpsons is when they're watching reruns of the older seasons. - Yeah. - The older ones aren't really good to be fair. - Like season six and seven-ish.
That's tight. God. Honestly, I wish this was me. Sydney has gotten into... Oh, Sex and the City? Why Sex and the City? Every time I see her, she's like, I watched Sex and the City. Awful experience. I'm like, why are you still watching it? She just... It's...
It's a hate watch. And unfortunately she brings me into the hate watch with her. - Damn. I'm so sorry. - I wish we were watching King of the Hill. - Watching anything else. - Watching anything else. I'm like, Sydney, I still have brain cells left. I like, I could just like, please. And I didn't even know that Sex and the City came back with like a new season recently.
See, okay, you're going to have to fill me in on this. I've never watched Sex and the City. Me neither. I don't know anything about it other than fucking, what's her name? Sarah Jessica Parker is in it. Yeah, it's Sarah Jessica Parker and...
three other girls who are just in new york and they're obsessed with the fucking brand names and they're all trying to find love and that's it and they drink way too many fucking cosmopolitans and it's it's yo this sounds ass it is 94 episodes why did she start watching it
She, I don't know, Sydney just loves trash TV. I can't really judge her. - Or female New Yorkers gossip about their sex lives or lack thereof. - And it just, it's so weird watching some of the scenes in this because like, okay.
- Like the morality of the writing of this is just super, super weird because we recently watched the first Sex and the City movie and that came out like, I can't remember when that came out. - You're watching the movies now too? - Oh, yes. - She's done the whole gauntlet. - Yeah. And there's this one scene where one of the girls' husband breaks, cheats on her, right? And so,
And so the girl is like, wow, I can't believe it. She can't trust me anymore. And all of the other girls were like, honey, it was just one time. You know, it was just one time, honey. You're being a bit dramatic here. And I'm like, damn, what? Why are you trying to gaslight her like this? And then, so eventually at the end of the film, they get therapy and they make up and then,
And then in the therapy session, the husband is like, they tried to paint the girl as doing something as like morally wrong as like the husband or something similar. They tried to give sympathy to the husband by being like,
Well, you know, so the girl says to the husband, I don't think the woman says to the husband, I don't think I can ever trust you again. And then the husband's just like, you know, I don't think I can ever trust you again either. Cause I did that and you just immediately left me. And I,
- I don't know, I was just in a dark place. And the therapist is like, yeah. - 200 IQ, works every time. - What the fuck? - And the therapist is like, yeah, I mean, you know, he has a point, you should listen to him. And I'm like, what the fuck is this right now? What is going, what?
- What was going on in like the early 2000s, man? - So she's like hate watching it then. - Yeah, she is hate watching it. - See, but we all know hate watching eventually leads to just watching. - Yeah, she's a fan now. - Yeah, she's a fan. - It's a fan in denial. That's what hate watching is. We should know this by now. - I noticed whenever we'd go to like bars and she'd just order, she'd be like, suddenly I'm like, every time we go to bars, she'd order Cosmopolitan. - Cosmopolitan!
- And I'm like, no, she's a fan. - I'm like, where did this come from? - It's not a good drink either. - I don't think it's a good drink. - It's pretty awful. I don't know why it became such a big fucking thing in Sex and the City. - It's not too late, man. You can get it back. - Hopefully by the time this episode is out, her addiction is over. - I hope so. Or she's just run out of episodes. - Hopefully, one or the other.
- When she starts watching the reruns, that's when it's over. - That's when it's over dude. - That is when it's over. - God damn. - All right, well, thanks for coming on again. Appreciate it. - Thank you for having me. - I hope you had a good time. - I did. - And go check out Spilled Ink if you haven't already. And of course Emily's channel, Emorychu.

This podcast is brought to you by Aura. Imagine waking up to find your bank account drained, bills for loans you never took out, a warrant for your arrest, all because someone committed a crime in your name. It sounds like a nightmare, but for millions of people each year, it's reality. And here's the scariest part. By the time companies tell you your data was stolen, it's already been nearly a year, 277 days.
That's how long, on average, hackers have to use your social security number, open accounts, take out loans, and destroy your credit. Before you even know, you've been exposed. By the time you get that breach notification email, the damage is done. Your identity, stolen. Your financial future, at risk. And the company that lost your data, they'll just apologize and move on. Hackers aren't waiting. Why are you?
This can all sound really scary, which is why I'm so glad we're partnering with Aura. Hackers don't wait, so why should you?

If Aura detects your info, you'll get an instant alert, so you can act before the damage is done.
What if your identity is already stolen? Criminals can take out loans, max out credit cards, and banish. That's why Aura provides up to $5 million in identity theft insurance and a U.S.-based fraud resolution team that works around the clock to shut down fraud fast and get your life back on track.
Your personal data is a goldmine for hackers and Aura helps lock it down. With a VPN for private browsing, Data Broker opts out to stop companies from selling your info and a password manager to help secure your accounts. Aura gives you the tools to fight back.
