Well, you all will never know what I'm referring to, but I will. As always, I'm joined by my co-host, Mark and Bob. Hello. Hello. Hello. For you, it's the future. For us, it's now. That was in the past. What was I? I had a point with that. I don't know, but that was all very correct information. Because, spoiler alert for everyone out there, but for us, this is New Year's Eve. We're recording.
Chapter 2: What are the hosts' holiday experiences?
I'm dating this a little bit, but it's probably timely. How was everyone's holiday? Small talk time. How are you guys?
Oh, busy. I cook. You know what? I learned this holidays, guys. I like cooking food for people. You just don't like storing it in a cold box. No, we got the fridges all sorted out. It's going to be at least 18 months till we have to buy another fridge. I'm going to enjoy the peace while it lasts. How many fridges are you guys buying a year?
I'm about to buy another one. I'm very afraid for it, but... I last bought a fridge in 2016.
You spend all your money on toilets, I guess, so.
Chapter 3: How do the hosts feel about home appliances?
Yeah, we were moving. Two weeks before we were set to close, our fridge broke. So we had to replace the fridge in the house we were leaving. That's kind of sad. That should have been like a precursor. Like that should have given me a hint. But what I was heading to after that was all downhill.
I was like, oh man, one final F you from this house before we go to this great house where I'll never have any issues.
This nice house that was built very well and has no serious problems.
Wait, but the last house had a dishwasher break like a month before we moved. I think more than that happened. Well, yeah, but I'm just saying like every house kind of like Fs me on the way out. But not this house. This house would be great.
All my houses give me kisses on the way. I don't know what you're doing to your houses. We get into naked fist fights with bricks.
Oh, I thought you said pricks. Pricks. What pricks are popping out of the walls?
Do you make lightsaber noises when you do your prick fights?
They're really high-pitched because they're small. Oh. Speaking of really high-pitched because it's small. Ha ha!
Ha! When you said check this out, it sounded like you were in a 1930s phone call.

That was a weird way to emphasize your point, but I'll take it.
He was playing his pig pen for Christmas. Don't mind him.
Hey, you don't make fun of Mark.
I feel so loved, guys. Thank you.
He's got his little blower. He's walking, blowing the dust, and it just, like, forms a cloud and trails behind him. It really does. Yeah, it doesn't help at all.

Chapter 5: What are the hosts' thoughts on 3D printing?
But when I have a $1,500 microphone sitting in a box in the other room, I really, really realized that I should have been using this for a lot longer. So now I'm back. Anyways, is it my time for small talk yet, or are we just going to go on about it?
Oh, let me check the official clock. Yeah.
Man, I don't really have anything. I talked about all the things that I got to this gadget and back to this thing. All the things you got.
Your old microphone and a dust blower. Merry Christmas.
Christmas was good, low-key. Render Farm's going well. It's actually kind of boring now. The Render Farm is just kind of working and I don't have anything to complain about.
Now you're moving on from it.
It's not fun. It really was the problems along the way. I just can't believe it. Oh, I know. Bob, you're a knife guy, right? Yes. Well, yeah, generally. Kitchen knives? Adventure knives? What are we talking about? Well, so I'm looking for a good knife, right? Because I'm not not for stabbing steak. No. So I have this knife and it's a knife, right? I got it from like big five sporting goods.
And I asked the guys like, hey, do you have a knife that's like really sturdy that I'm not for like hunting or anything, just for like prying shit open, cutting open boxes, doing anything and it won't. Become shitty immediately and he was like I have no fucking idea what knives are and he's like here's all our knives I'll take that one Bob. Do you know of a knife?
That's just like unbelievably reliable that I could pry Anything up from anything I could whittle with it, you know, can I be super honest?

Chapter 6: What video games are the hosts currently playing?
Fascinating.
Bamboo Labs, please.
All of your printers. Call me. You'll somehow make money from this. I promise. I looked like I was fondling their balls. That's not what I was trying to do.
You'll somehow make money from this. I don't care about my small talk. You guys will never believe what I've been doing. Playing board games, playing video games, eating chicken wings, Path of Exile 2. All right, you guys know exactly what I've been doing. I played some Bellatro. Did you? Did you like it? Yeah, I have. I've not gotten super, super far.
I've only played a handful of games, but like, man, I had a deck. It was going great. I was scoring like, I don't know, 600,000 a hand or something. Like it was going awesome. And then I came across like that boss that's like, all hearts are debuffed. And of course my hand was all hearts.
Your hand was heart based. It's really fun. Bob, I have a new record for my best hand. I've climbed 13 billion. Good Lord. For one hand? For one hand, I got 13 billion. I still haven't reached the exponential levels, but last time it was just a million or two. I forget what it was, but I went up.
It's amazing how quickly if you get a few more multipliers, you just like go up and up and up and 13 billion. And I still only got to ante 13.
I don't think I've meaningfully, yeah, I haven't meaningfully improved my max score. I have been, I've unlocked more decks and I've unlocked the challenge modes and I've been focusing on that a lot. So my max is still 36 million or whatever it was, but.
Do the challenge modes give you anything else? Is there anything else you can add?

Chapter 7: How does the concept of time come into play?
He's talking to me. Excuse me, Wade. He's talking to me. He's talking to me. He's talking to me. I'm going to take your point and I'm going to divert it into some bullshit that I have a gripe with.
okay okay so i'm shelving this you know what i find so infuriating is when there's some middle-aged like guy or usually a guy and there was one just recently that emerged from his year-long life at the bottom of some lake he was he like lived at like a certain depth for a year and he comes out and be like ah i'm so much younger my biological age is 34 even though i'm 48
And they're like, you just made that up. What do you mean your biological age is that? Like, that doesn't mean anything. It's like, but my biological markers for this and this and this and this. It's like, what are you talking about? It's a bullshit metric that people made up. And it's like, but what you're talking about, Bob, is legitimate time dilation.
So I'm just going to throw that out there because I think it's so stupid every time one of these guys are like, I have soft aging. Does that happen a lot? Oh, where Mark lives, every day someone emerges.
Someone emerges from a nearby lake.
Yeah, specifically the part about living under the lake was what got my attention, but... Don't go to Minnesota.
They got so many lakes, people are popping out like crazy.
He says he de-aged himself 20 years after spending 100 days underwater. Miracle! Turns out they did a side-by-side picture of him before and after. It looks the same. He looks a year older.
No, I totally get the idea of like, oh, you have indicators physiologically that you could measure where it's like, oh, your heart health is very good or not or very bad. And you're actually cardiac wise. You're older than you should be or whatever. I don't know what measures these guys are using when they do this, but I can't. It's never that drastic.
