How Do You Pan?

14:26Ethan Nestor:into that's going to be the next seven years of his life oh god he's going to buy the rights from seth mcfarland seth baby sethie mac god i remember wait i think i got a phone call from someone this weekend that someone called me some like name like that i can't remember it was a slugger or champ or hero or like there's the man of the hour some shit like is this carl divider carl divider we love your stuff love your channel i get it i get that joke i guess well anyway that's very exciting for me personally i would point i used the book was sitting like right here previously but i lent it to someone so that they have to read it and they can get into it too because that's how i feel about it i should buy the paper version i should Yeah, how'd you read it?

15:13Did you ebook? Yeah, I've always read books on my phone. I've done that for years now So i'm used to it.

15:17Ethan Nestor:That's i've i've read all of them on my I have a kindle Um, and I read them on that but I I want to buy hard hardcover copies of all the books because they're dope

15:26Mark Fischbach:I got a neck light that like wraps around your neck and has like two little lights on it And so I can read in the dark. Okay, grandpa No, no, no, it's cool. It's cool. I like that. That's great. Grandpas could be cool. I wasn't implying it wasn't cool I might listen I look at the part I thought I'd start acting the part I sit in my recliner and I fall asleep Wake up and yell at the kids in my yard Then I read a book a little bit you know Go and eat my mashed potatoes and IV You know grandpa things Sure Well I'm looking at the release cadence of these books that he made Of Dungeon Crawler Carl Is he like a super fast writer or this is weird on Amazon How it's listed like book two Book one was like October 2nd of 2020 Then book two was January 6th of 21 Then book three was April Then book four was July Is this is that how fast he's writing?

16:21Ethan Nestor:I don't actually know but I do think that that's generally correct So I'm I'm not like a lower expert on this But Matt Didemann the writer of these books Originally published book one of Dungeon Crawler Carl As like a fan fiction is not the right word But like he self-published it online It was not like a release or anything. And it got such a cult following that it grew and he got support. And then it was released as like a real title by like a publishing company or something. Like the whole story of how Dungeon Crawler Carl has gotten to where it is today is a very like grassroots success because he did it himself that led to getting the books.

17:01Ethan Nestor:And so I think he kind of does crank him out. But I don't actually know if that's completely accurate or if that's reflecting the weird timeline because he got like picked up by a publisher or something.

17:11Mark Fischbach:He's trying to keep pace with George R.R. Martin.

17:13Ethan Nestor:He's not messing around, man. Also, he might just like be writing this as one long thing. And so, you know, maybe he started writing it. And by the time book one came out, he was already substantially done with the next, you know. If he had a full idea of where it was going to go. Yeah, it could be. And some people do crank. And I'd say like his writing, the books are slightly shorter. You know, his writing is good. I think it's, I'm not disparaging in any way, his writing. It paints a very clear picture, but there's, I didn't come across any lines of like descriptive language that was just like, oh, you know, I've read in some books before where I see just like the greatest sentence I've ever read in my life.

17:53And I'm just like, holy shit. And I haven't seen that in this book, but it's an, it's an extremely clear picture. So he's writing in a way that could explain like the fast cadence and he's not stopping and saying he needs to make all this flowery language I'm, not saying that makes a better book. It's a great book Otherwise because it paints the clearest picture in the whole setting is what's great

18:10Mark Fischbach:I think simple reads are better books flowery language books. Sometimes i'm just too tired It's like dude. I don't feel like trying to figure out what this eight syllable word means like come on We don't need it. Just say like the book and i'm totally like that's not the perfect way to write a book I'm, just trying to explain that like it makes sense that he's cranking these out faster because you're writing efficiently and descriptively. And that's that's a good way to do it, especially for a book like this. I don't need an analogy every paragraph. I would say like Project Hail Mary kind of walked the line because it was very simply written, but it covered a bunch of concepts and a bunch of it was like, you know, fake science shit.

18:43Mark Fischbach:But like, it still was like, OK, I'm trying to keep track of all these terms and science stuff and math stuff. But like it did a good job of carrying me like I stayed hooked. I love that book. That was a great book.

18:53Ethan Nestor:I think you should keep Dungeon Crawler Carl high on your list. but I will say if you like Project Hail Mary and if you haven't read The Martian, The Martian is very worth reading, you should read Artemis by Andy Weir it's a sci-fi it's a moon base setting, the main character is awesome, the whole thing it's very like heisty it's got like a heist shenanigans aspect to it, awesome also totally worth reading, love that book I actually haven't read Project Hail Mary yet, but I know that I like Andy Weir.

19:25Mark Fischbach:Is it weird that I feel like in this stage of our lives, like we're talking about books and stuff now, but I feel like book reading was like the D &D of the last 20 years where it's like, you read books, you nerd. And now it's like, I love books. I want to talk about books some more. I want to read more books. I feel I'm okay saying that. I like books. Books are great. I love books. I hadn't read in so long. And then last year I read the entire Animorphs series in like a month and then picked up some of the John Grisham books and stuff. And then Molly got me the to read her Project Hail Mary. And it's like, okay.

19:53Mark Fischbach:And now I've got the Dungeon Crawler Colorado series to start up. That's a hard thing to say quickly. You're gonna love it. I guarantee it I finally bought it. So I'm I'm excited to read it

20:03Ethan Nestor:I for me reading was just ruined by law school. I've Thousands and thousands of pages of cases will do that to you, but it's fun to read for fun and things that aren't

20:14Mark Fischbach:The Scarlet letter did its best to destroy my love of anything Especially letters you can't have a book without letters.

20:20Ethan Nestor:This is a picture book fucking red letters not for me

20:23Mark Fischbach:I used to read Playboy for the articles Then I read Scarlet Letter and it's like well now I gotta get it for the pictures I was on Reddit sorry it's completely unrelated And I came across like you know a caption of a tweet And it's got like 100k likes as my face So I'm like oh okay then I read it It's like YouTube Remarkable I broke down in tears After a self-financed horror movie Iron Lung Opened to$23 at the worldwide box office Quote fuck Dude this movie cost so much money I'm so fucked Oh man I love that video please with audience please just one of you buy one ticket double my earnings the lemonati has spent decades keeping lemon on top and lime in the shadows their lemon agenda has infiltrated everything even our music that hit song named after the color of lemons not a coincidence big lemon has been pulling strings in the industry for years Think about it.

21:21But now, 7up is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda. Now lime comes first. 7up. Flip the sip.

21:32Ethan Nestor:Brussels clean up nicely at Sweetgreen. Maple glazed, roasted, and edges perfectly caramelized. Sweetgreen's fall harvest is back on the menu, and the season's most overlooked little green vegetable is dressed to be devoured. You know what to do. Order on the Sweetgreen app.

21:52Ethan Nestor:I don't read enough books to talk about books for an entire episode, but I'm excited about that. Do you guys want to do my episode idea? Yes. Hear me out. We're getting older. Some things in life are too good to let go. So I have titled this segment, How Do You Pan? Man. How do we pan? Beloved children's character, Peter Pan, never ages. Stays a child forever. It's full of whimsy and fun. Look at me. I don't. I just want to talk about what what like childish things do you hold on to? Do you think you're going to do for the rest of your life? And I have some examples to start out with this, but I just want to talk about it.

22:34Ethan Nestor:Sort of like a nostalgia bait episode, whatever. But like for me, like Lunchables, Kraft Mac and Cheese. I understand that they are not high quality food products. I'm with you, Bob. Makes me like them zero percent less. They are forever delicious and some of my favorites. I will never not try and make a basket into a trash can, no matter how inappropriate the scenario may be and how much of an adult I may be. My arms and legs do not hang over the edge of the bed so that the sleep demons can't get me. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. Other thing is remote control stuff. I know it's going to be disappointing.

23:11Ethan Nestor:I know it's not going to fly very well. I know it's a piece of shit. But a$20 remote control helicopter at a kiosk at the mall is never not going to be a thing I immediately want. I see that and I'm like, oh man, I could totally afford that now that I've grown and I have a credit card. How could I not buy this helicopter that will definitely fill all my dreams and be perfect and amazing? But yeah, do you guys have anything? Who's going first? The lion is Mark and the lady is Wade because he's bald. Bald lady.

23:43Mark Fischbach:wait you're going first and there's a few different ways I could go with this uh I'm going to start with playing pretend I don't just go around like playing pretend around the house like we did as kids but like D &D you know playing a character and stuff like that I really enjoy going around doing voices I still talk to myself and try to do different voices like I'll hear a voice I'm like can I do that one so like I'll be sitting on the toilet just like toilet paper toilet paper toilet

24:09Ethan Nestor:it paper it's the same three voices every time well no no there's different things i'll have

24:18Mark Fischbach:conversations i did um whitney houston's dolly parton's i will always love you as different characters literally just switching like they'll pass between because you can't hold a note as

24:27Ethan Nestor:smiegel i did that once and i couldn't talk for like three days sure sure i had like mickey kermit

24:33Mark Fischbach:christopher walken and elmo or probably someone else doing that song like passing it off to one another that kind of like role-playing stuff like especially like a dnd campaign or something i find it fun to do voices and characters and things and it was something i liked doing as a kid i still really enjoy doing now it's just it's fun to tap into that and like trying to be someone else and giving them their own even if it's not even like an original character doesn't have to be something like that but like my fucking stupid little cigar prop i keep here put in my mouth my character from dnd damn shun carried a big gatling gun just damn shun we're gonna go around today kill some fucking stormtroopers it's fun i don't know it's fun to do yeah i think i think that people in general just still want to play pretend um because we all have imaginations but now we're all adults and we can't because it's it's not what adults should do look at us now what what's a movie besides just a big old thing of pretend you know people love pretend and we've all made so many movies together

25:26Ethan Nestor:hey we made some things together calling it making them together is maybe generous to wade and i but we were there. I know we'll make it together. Couldn't make it without you.

25:36Mark Fischbach:Getting to be Wug will be one of the highlights of my life. That'll be one of the things I look most fondly upon. I really enjoyed that. Just wait till In Space 2 comes out. Mark, delete that. Editors, delete it. Don't spoil that. You're giving it away. My idea. I bought the rights to that. Oh, God, did you? That's right, Mark. I own you now, see?

25:53Ethan Nestor:He just made a huge pile of money and lit it on fire and was like, I own that now. I buy that.

26:00Mark Fischbach:From the universe. No, seriously, that was a good, I couldn't see anything in that costume, but I absolutely loved doing it anyway. Next time, we'll give you some more technology in there so you have a camera. Helped with her performance. Mark? So my childhood thing, actually, that I do still to this day is something that I cultivated again because I was building the render farm. And I know that sounds weird, but my dad always had computers ever since I was a kid. And so for a very long time, I was the type that was like, he got computer magazines. He got like the Micro Center Mall, like advertisement thing.

26:34And so I would, after he was done with that, I would go through and look like, oh, yes, I'll take a thousand dollar hard drive. 30, you know, this five-year-old me and just like, oh, yeah. A 30 megabyte hard drive. Whoa. Oh, a 10 pack of floppies for only$29.99. Well, I'll take two. You know, so now that I'm back in building Renderform and I'm done with the movie now. So I now I'm just like, what computer can I upgrade? What needs an upgrade? Like I caught a whiff that there were new Intel processors coming out and it's like, oh yeah, all right, I probably need that. I probably could do with an upgrade to my main computer.

27:14I can build another one. You want to build another one? So it's just like, I'm just desperate, desperately looking around for anything that I can build and anything that I can tinker. Because it's just like, it's just tinkering with Legos, but with expensive computer equipment.

27:27Ethan Nestor:You are a great candidate for a hobby I've been trying to teach myself about, and I'm too stupid, apparently, to do very well. Have you looked into Homelab stuff? I was on the Homelab subreddit. They were making fun of my render farm. Oh, they were burning your render farm? They were making fun of my render farm. Well, some of them were just like, no, wait, actually, this is what this subreddit is all about. Really shitty setups. This guy, you can't make fun of him. And meanwhile, he's saying that. And I'm like, oh, you look, I'm still getting hit here, man. Seriously, though, the people on the on the home lab subreddit who are like scoffing at people who scrabble things together and have janky it.

28:07Ethan Nestor:What is a home lab if it's not supposed to be some janky shit where you're like, I have these weird random components. Let me see what I can make with them. It's great. And the people who are chill about it are cool. The people who are on Reddit about it are not.

28:19Mark Fischbach:That janky shit held the number one movie for 71 and a half out of 72 hours. that's true baby that's true what i will say is uh about that some people were looking at all the mac studios and was like oh clearly that's not a deal i'll tell you something about mac even if you don't like it that shit holds its resale value like crazy and you better believe i'ma sell those things now that i'm done with the movie so i only got them for this for this thing so i

28:46Ethan Nestor:cannot fucking believe how expensive like an m1 mac mini still is like you'd think like oh that's really old but it's an apple silicon chip and but it's like oh that's like a five-year-old compact computer like 300 400 500 bucks depending on the specs and what it's like what the fuck you might as well just buy new stuff god damn that's the crazy thing is because i bought this i mean it was still the ai craze but then people discovered that hey these macs are actually really good for ai bullshit and i'm not using it for that i'm using it for efficient rendering but The resale value. I might make money on these.

29:24Ethan Nestor:I'm going to make money on some Mac studios.

29:28Mark Fischbach:It's crazy. So did I tell you all what I spent on my new computer? Did you say it was like$30 ,000 or something? Yeah, you spent$120 ,000 on it. That's what you told us. Well, okay. It's not going to sound expensive after I compare it to those numbers. No, it was 10 grand. It was 10 grand. 10 grand? Yeah. If you want a really good computer nowadays, yeah, that seems right. That was with the 5090, 16 terabytes of hard drive space. I didn't even get the maximum RAM. I got two fours and an eight terabyte. Oh, I thought you said 60. And I was like, okay. I only got 64 gigabytes of RAM, too, because RAM was crazy expensive.

30:02That's some Mark level shit right there.

30:04Mark Fischbach:Yeah. Yeah. But I was looking at the camera I bought. So I got a new camera. It's not here yet, but it comes in tomorrow. Was the same exact price, brand new, as whenever I got this camera brand new. 10 years later, the camera price for a brand new nice camera was like the same. 10 years later for computer, like five or six times the price. It is unbelievably stupid. I don't know if there's actually a shortage. There might be. Or if this is just inflation of the price. But RAM shot up like four times its normal price, sometimes more. And now storage, like an eight terabyte SSD, which I was getting plenty of those for my movie to shuttle files around.

30:44I had eight terabyte NVMEs all the time. Those were like 800 bucks. And I was looking at it. I was like, that's so expensive. Okay, all right. GPU, RAM, and hard drive was like 90 % of the cost. Now that eight terabyte was up to$3 ,200. The same one that I bought. Went from 800 to 3 ,200. Literally jumped up 4X. And I'm like, that seems arbitrary.

31:06Ethan Nestor:I'll just keep writing my stuff down on paper, I guess. God damn. Yeah. One, one, oh. Mark sitting in his bathroom render farm like one oh oh oh shit the eBay servers I got for a great deal were like punch card from the 70 servers like all right like John Wick if they

31:32Mark Fischbach:go to a call center to call in the number so they can punch him in oh god I love John Wick's weirdly old tech that makes no sense for their assassin distribution room. I don't know what that's about, but I love it. I love the style.

31:46Ethan Nestor:It makes perfect sense, probably. I don't know how it makes sense, but I'm sure it does. I would say that's on my list too. I think I've mentioned this before, but I still, I think one of the few panic attacks I've ever had was when I got my first smartphone, and this is really nerdy, but I just remember it was a T-Mobile G1. It was the first Android phone that ever sold commercially, at least in the US. I think it was the first. And I'm like, I got it. And I got it. I opened it. My parents got it for me for my birthday. It was a huge fucking deal. And I, in the car on the way to my birthday lunch, I was sitting there like, why can't I breathe?

32:19Ethan Nestor:I'm going to pass out. And I didn't understand what was happening. I fucking had a panic attack because I was holding a piece of technology that was so fucking cool. I hadn't even used it yet. I was just sitting there looking at it just like,

32:34Ethan Nestor:that's legit i wouldn't i don't know if that's childish for me because i didn't really get into computers until i was in like maybe middle school at the earliest but it'll never not be exciting

32:44Mark Fischbach:wade you touched on this i have to go there diet i mean i eat a lot more than i used to like everyone's like boy you're such a picky eater which is true but like i would not have eaten a lot of um uh like the indian food uh thai food stuff like that that i eat now seafood i would not have touched a lot of whenever I was younger. So I do eat a lot more, but some of my staple things are still like, dude, I really want some pizza rolls today. I would kill for a PB and J. We still have the house stocked with SpaghettiOs. Everyone that I know hates them except for me. Hates them. I love them. SpaghettiOs and a can of ravioli together in the same pot.

33:21Ethan Nestor:Plain SpaghettiOs or SpaghettiOs with meatballs. I'm plain SpaghettiOs. Oh, come on.

33:27Mark Fischbach:There's something wrong with that but I definitely prefer meatballs I understand I get it you need the protein there's like no nutrition there otherwise I've had fancy like mac and cheese I'm like kind of just want

33:38Ethan Nestor:Kraft or Velveeta like give me the shells dude Velveeta and shells I lived on that through college a lot when I had money I was buying the Kroger brand shells with melty cheese that was definitely not Velveeta um because that was the good stuff I don't do like the dino nuggets a lot

33:56Mark Fischbach:of people I've never had them but like I do like a Tyson honey breast chicken tender or something that I really like it sounds like some adult shit to me I don't know about that I've ate it when I was younger and I liked it but I don't know I just like I'll eat more and there's times where I'm like man I really want some like curry and uh chicken or whatever and rice today I would not have said that as a kid but there are definitely days where it's like I want chicken tendies and mac and cheese wait do you want chicken tendies yeah so diet and dude there's still times where it's like, oh, every time I eat like Gushers or whatever, I feel like crap.

34:26Mark Fischbach:But like, wait, he wants some Gushers today. Give me some Gushers. Give me a fruit roll up. Like,

34:32Ethan Nestor:no, it's legit.

34:33Mark Fischbach:Yeah. My body does not like it whenever I give into those kid cravings. I still have those kid cravings. I think last night, it was literally last night I was laying in bed. I was hungry. I was like, man, I kind of want some cereal. Oh, some Lucky Charms would go hard right now. Definitely still have that kid diet that I want. And then body regret. in the same vein, I've got a couple things. Cause like to touch on the diet is like, I have narrowed it down. You guys remember how I would often get low blood sugar and I would just start to be, ah, sorry guys. I need to pass out for a little bit. And I would just like get super low energy and like, I need to breathe sweating and like all that kind of stuff.

35:08Do you remember that? I don't get that anymore because I narrowed it down to what it is. It's dextrose, right? It's, it's specifically dextrose, any candy that has dextrose in it. If I eat too much of that, especially on an empty stomach it will cause that to happen and i don't know and you would pound some like some of those sour candies the sweet tarts shock tarts there and a lot of those types of candies the chalky ones they all have dextrose right oh that explains a lot because exactly yeah so so it was super bad for me and then ever since i've cut that out of my life i've never i haven't had that happen in years right so uh but i still every once in a while I'm like, I know this is bad for me, but I'll see a sweet tart.

35:50I'll see like a roll of Smarties, US Smarties, not UK Smarties. And I'm just like, oh man. And like at the sound mix, they had these giant Smarties. And I was like, I can't have you. Why can't I quit you? I'm just like. My childish habit that I still do to this day is in two places, I do the same thing. Open the fridge. Close the fridge. Go to the pantry. go back to the fridge open it again stare in it and as a kid my dad would just get so mad because i'd be leaving the fridge wide open while i'm just standing there and now it's worse because i usually have my phone in my hand and i'm just like and i'll look at my phone while i'm standing with the fridge open close it go to the pantry stand in the pantry looking at my phone and then I'll just be like, and then that's just like, I turned into a zombie when it's like, I'm hungry.

36:45I do not prepare myself meals. I guess that's more what it is. It's just like, I, I'm a scrounger. I will always scrounge. I will never stop scrounging. I've done it since I was a kid and I will do it until I'm dead. I guess I can't do fixed meals.

37:01Mark Fischbach:Dude, DoorDash is the same way for me. Like it's not opening the fridge, but like you have a million options at your fingertips. I'm like, Oh, there's nothing to eat while browsing literally every type of food basically in existence. There's no food on this app. Literally everything is probably available. And I'm just, I open it, scan through, close it, open it, search for a specific type of food, find it, like, no, close it. Not the fridge, but very similar vein. I don't know what program in us is like, yeah, our ancestors used to just go club the first bat they saw and eat it. Now we're like, we could have anything.

37:33No. Why bat specifically? How would no, it's like the hardest thing to club. I'm like, I'm not saying like anything against bats, but I'm like, if I had to be like, damn ancestors, there's a raccoon right there.

37:48Mark Fischbach:No, man, bats. Because, I don't know, you're showing your torchlight, the bats would fly near it and you club them. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what bats do. Yeah, sure. Like moths. They echolocate toward flames. You didn't know that? Yep, that's what they do. The echoes bounce right off of the flame. Actually, they stand outside the cave, they wait till sunset, and as soon as they come out, they go, just wave it in the air and they whatever falls down they hold their mouth open at least my ancestors did ancestors did i don't know if yours did well they had to that's how we're still here i see one path it's that path i did it i did a two paths thing this weekend i couldn't remember why but it was like i think it was on one of the live streams where i was like i see two paths and i don't know if anyone got the reference but i would have i don't even remember what it's from

38:31Ethan Nestor:I just know it's from something we did together. It was an escape room episode? It might have been. It might have been the escape thing that either you or Mandy made, where it's like, so it constantly lasts you two paths. I remember.

38:44Mark Fischbach:I can't remember if it was related to the episode or not. It was just one of those bits that stuck for that episode.

38:49Ethan Nestor:There's so many scenarios where you could see a number of paths. We were so much funnier back then. Yeah, we've changed. One of us for the better, two of us for the worse. I'll let you decide whose is which. I claim worse.

39:00Mark Fischbach:You claim worse too? I don't know. I just said dibs. All right. Mark, it's one of those two. Better or worse.

39:06Ethan Nestor:I'll get I'll take the other one. All right. That's decided. And Wade, you're out.

39:13I'm free.

39:14Ethan Nestor:Does anyone have anything else that they desperately wanted to get in? Oh, I did have one that I wanted to say that I I still like playground rides. I'm like way too big for almost all of them. But when you find a swing, that's like a swing that can accommodate an adult sized person. God, is that so fucking good? man.

39:32Mark Fischbach:I can't use them, man. I get sick. Can't you? You get sick on swings? Yeah. Like when I was young, I was terrified of roller coasters. So I would do like the teacup or like scrambled egg style rides that would spin you. And then I loved sitting on a swing and just going back and forth. For some reason, the spinny stuff and swings do the same thing to me. They both just make me like motion sick. I don't know why. Cause I absolutely love the feeling of a swing, but I three or four like bouts and I start to feel like that nausea creep in. It's really sad because I want to enjoy

40:00Ethan Nestor:the swing sometimes you get older you lose the ability to do stuff but man swings and merry-go-rounds go hard modern merry-go-rounds bro those are some things there's some crazy shit out there in the world of merry-go-rounds tell you what there's in ground incorporated ones where it's just like a turntable at ground there's ones where it's like a whole gazebo that spins that you can like ride on there's one where it's like a climbing jungle gym and it spins and that one's got some crazy ass bearings the one by our house it'll go fast too fast don't tell don't ask me how i know

40:35Mark Fischbach:how do you know i said don't ask i'm sorry sorry puzzles man i loved putting together jigsaw puzzles as a kid i don't do jigsaw puzzles anymore i wish i i probably would if i had them but i still have found that i actually really like puzzles i think that's why blueprints connected with me so much was i liked the puzzle aspect i still like building lego because it's like a similar feel to putting a puzzle together there's something i just really enjoy about that aspect of things. I don't know what it was as a kid. My grandparents would do puzzles like they, I guess to get my brain going or something, they were like, this will be something good and productive for him.

41:05Mark Fischbach:So I did a bunch of puzzles. By the time I was like six or seven, I was working on like thousand piece or whatever puzzles with my grandparents. But there's a part of my brain that still has always enjoyed that. And like, like I said, to this day, blueprints unlocked that feeling in me for the first time in probably like decades.

41:19Ethan Nestor:I know that it is a kid's thing, but I also feel like it's very adult to be into 20 ,000 piece jigsaw puzzles.

41:25Mark Fischbach:maybe it is an adult thing but like for me it was my kid experience yeah that's fair maybe that was unique to me as a kid because maybe not every kid did puzzles but like i had you know tiny little like six piece puzzles as a kid like the blocky ones that you could put in your mouth and not destroy like wooden puzzles and then like as i got older you know you got fancier ones there were like the three the that blew my mind the first 3d puzzle where you like built a little cottage it was like it's a puzzle but like up those were cool i didn't like them for the puzzle

41:52Ethan Nestor:aspect but I thought they were very impressive I thought those were crazy yeah the puzzle aspect

41:56Mark Fischbach:was not nearly as fun because they're kind of fucking annoying to put together but like the end product was really cool no that's fair um but yeah the puzzly stuff I enjoyed as a kid

42:05Ethan Nestor:did you have one mark you look pregnant with thought oh man I'm I'm struggling to come up with another one because I'm just so mature and I'm so well developed and well-rounded as an individual and I have no no habits that I've carried over from childhood hey that's allowed You don't have to be an idiot like us. Were you like a thumb sucker still? Come on, tell us. I buy my nails. That's definitely one. I still buy my nails. I feel like a lot of adults do that. I don't... It's really bad for your teeth to do that. We gotta stop. Well, they say that, but I'm like, my teeth are pretty good. The only thing I've destroyed my teeth from is Takis and sour candy.

42:40Mark Fischbach:I know what I've killed my teeth with. I chipped mine on candy, my front tooth on candy. Oh, well, we gotta get stronger teeth. Better chompers. Yeah, take care of your teeth. Brush your teeth. That's a habit that I've stuck from childhood. That has stuck with me hard. I may not floss every day like I probably should, but I brush for that full two minutes every night. And often, I don't do it twice a day regularly, but every night before I go to bed, if I don't brush my teeth, it hasn't happened, right? Like I always find a way to brush.

43:10Ethan Nestor:If I don't have a toothbrush, it's like for two minutes. Dental problems are not good. Dental problems are always terrible. Even if it's only something that's minor, it sucks. Turns out you need your mouth to eat and drink things, and that's pretty crucial.

43:28Mark Fischbach:Brush your backs, too, because you don't want it. Spine problems. That's how you stop spine problems, right? I wish. Yeah, yeah. Brush your back. Yeah.

43:35Ethan Nestor:I will say I've carried over my childhood teeth brushing habits in a bad way where I do brush my teeth, but within the first 10 seconds, I get it out and I'm like brushing my teeth. and in 10 seconds I'm like oh my god am I done yet fuck Jesus this is so boring and it's like I'm I'm the parent and the child because I'm like no you have to do the whole time like I don't want to do the whole time I don't care if I don't have any you know you'll care when you start losing your teeth but by the time I'm done having the internal discussion about it usually it's been about two minutes and then I'm just done brushing my teeth but I fucking hate it I don't care for

44:13Mark Fischbach:the minty taste of toothpaste. So my problem with brushing is I hate that minty taste and it lingering forever afterward.

44:18Ethan Nestor:Well, I'm pretty sure they sell ass-flavored toothpaste if you want it.

44:21Mark Fischbach:I don't know that I'd want that one either. Does this feel like the same thing to me? You feel like ass is the same flavor as mint? Wait, hold on. Let's break this down. Hold on. Back up. What? A properly prepared ass could be minty? Yeah. That's not what I was talking about. Yeah, me either. Oh, good. I'm glad we're on the same page. He's got that weird thing where mint you know cilantro tastes like soap to some people mint tastes like ass but he likes it you know so okay whenever you're doing like bean boozled and you get the mint flavor it's like oh thank god even though the technically the other one's better on that one because it's like a blueberry or something but the blue bean boozled is the way to go but like brushing your teeth i don't know just maybe because as a kid i didn't like it or something but like i to this day i don't like i don't think mint is a terrible flavor i just don't like it if that makes sense they

45:07Ethan Nestor:literally do sell like other flavors of toothpaste like some of them are for kids and whatever but Like you could get something that's not so minty probably. You get like a mellow, like a chill toothpaste that doesn't, it's not gross for you. I'm sure they could do that.

45:19Mark Fischbach:I just stick with the tried and true, you know? It's like I just deal with it. I don't like it, but I deal with it.

45:23Ethan Nestor:But you buy it. I mean, maybe you don't physically pick it out at the store. Maybe Molly buys it for you guys when you go grocery shopping or something. But like it's, you could probably ask her about that. And you know what? Whatever. Brush your teeth with ass toothpaste as much as you are. That's fine. Yeah. That's a good one though, Mark. What a great message to end on. brush your teeth everybody and probably floss but honestly i don't know if there's any science supporting the importance of flossing dentists everywhere ripping their hair out of this episode yeah but it's so annoying and then blood just and i know if you keep doing it that won't happen but the one time a year i floss teeth pop out i'm bleeding everywhere it's awful i just flossing obviously so bad for my mouth.

46:07Mark Fischbach:I just pretend it's a Rocky Balboa movie and I just won the fight.

46:12Ethan Nestor:I actually take a popcorn bucket into the bathroom. I fill it back up. Anyway, great ending message, Mark. Brush your teeth, everybody. Read a goddamn book. The Lemonati has spent decades keeping lemon on top and lime in the shadows. Their lemon agenda has infiltrated everything, even our music. that hit song named after the color of lemons. Not a coincidence. Big Lemon has been pulling strings in the industry for years. Think about it. But now, 7up is fighting back with their new lime lemon soda. Now lime comes first. 7up, flip the sip.

47:22Ethan Nestor:We're going to call the episode there. Mark, you earned points for the number one movie in America today. You got an agreement point. You got a dungeon crawler point. You got a point for playing with computers. You got a point for being an Apple genius. You got a point for being a fridge gazer. And you got a point for brushing your teeth. Wade, you earned points for. You also got an agreement point. You got a planning to read dungeon crawler Carl point. You got a laughing at your own joke point. You got a went first point. You got a point for playing pretend. You got a point for working on computers by installing a GPU and a hard drive into an otherwise fully built computer.

48:02Ethan Nestor:You got a point for eating childish foods like PB &J. You got a point for clubbing bats. And you got a puzzle point, leaving the final score with Mark with seven and Wade with nine. Damn. Unfortunately for Wade, two of those points are lie points. Oh, man, this could go either way. So it is seven to seven real points. Wade, you have two lie points. Oh, absolutes are coming. It is time to consult the wheel of bullshittery and nonsense. But didn't you get a point, Bob? I do have one point. That's correct. Yeah. I got a callback point. That's right. That's right, because you called back. I saw two paths.

48:44Ethan Nestor:Actually, I saw one path, but whatever. How many bonus points will there be? I'm going to guess it's going to be three. Oh, it comes down to one. One point. Oh, yeah, I have to add something. Most childish. Alright, good. That one's gonna be a hot debate. Goo goo ga ga. I'm getting in there. That just reminded me of something I can't remember even kind of.

49:09Mark Fischbach:Sorry, Mark, that was a delayed laugh. I zoned out.

49:11Ethan Nestor:That's okay, I heard it. You don't have to explain yourself. Drooled the most? I don't think I drool at all. I don't think I drooled at all. I mean, Mark did his with the goo goo ga ga, but...

49:21Mark Fischbach:Oh yeah, a little drool would have been pretty childish. I would have been, I should have.

49:24Ethan Nestor:That's a re-spin. That's a re-spin. And? Scariest contribution, man. Dungeon Crawler Carl, very scary, I'm telling you. Technically, Mark's movie's a horror movie. Oh, that's true. I don't think you talked about anything scary, Wade, I gotta be honest. DoorDash prices! Ooh! Seafood. Mark gets a scary, scary point. Yeah! Mark has eight points and Wade has seven points. Oh, and I think I forgot to mention this. Maybe I should have read it and mentioned this There is a point owed to me for when I'm finally Done with the movie oh That's like long long ago Has been a step I don't know if it's true But I'll just say it now because I don't want to have to pull that out at some other point In the future I'll forget about it anyway so I'll just like No I'll put it it's on the record Mark also got a point for Finishing the movie Leaving the final score Mark with 9 And Wade with 7 I didn't give it to you so I'll Give you one yeah my global point total.

50:24Ethan Nestor:Wade, poor effort today, really, all around.

50:27Mark Fischbach:Loser speech? We went into this episode I had a grueling headache, a contact lens lost behind an eyelid. But you know what? I fought it nearly to a tie despite the fact that I was on my deathbed when we began. And not to be overdramatic, but I was probably legally dead for at least a hundredth of a second. But I'm still here. And honestly, that is a win in and of itself. The epitome of standing on the third rung of the final standings and biting my gold medal, popping the champagne and kissing the lady who gave me the medal. That's me today, baby. I competed. I was here.

51:03Ethan Nestor:Pretty sure it's bronze. And also third place is pretty good out of a lot of competitors. So I think it's really context dependent. But you are here, Wade. You did survive. Mark, victory speech. I have freedom, which means that I will eventually go insane and I will destroy my life to get even a hint of the same amount of dopamine and serotonin that I got from this weekend. It is the beginning of the end for me, but at the beginning of the end, it's still pretty good. A year from now, I will be a devastated wreck. I will be lost to the wheels of Hollywood forever. I'm gonna let it go to my head, just like I'm letting this victory go to my head.

51:43I'm prepared for it And I can't wait to be a shell of a man.
