I don't I don't have the reason is I Don't have cake for everybody. I don't I don't have enough cake to share so, you know I didn't want to feel anybody to feel left out. Hello, Rob. Nice to see you always nice to be here One of my ideas for this evening Was to do storytime and I was looking at my books And I think like all of the find your fate books that I have I think we've done all of them And several of them we've done more than one Wait, hey, did Joe Berg come in if Joe Berg came in and I didn't see you. Hello, Joe Berg. Hello, Daniel Thank you very much. Thank you, Jake. Hey, it is Joe Berg. Hello Hello, Exploriso Yeah, so storytime I want to do it again It's been requested a couple times, but I I needed I need some more books So I am going to try to track down some I Actually did run across One of the find your fate books in the wild, you know just out there shopping But it's one I already had so you know, I need some there's a whole There's a whole list of them that I don't have In fact, let me where's the I should put these in order sometimes. Well, you know what? I'm gonna put them in order right now. So that's nine ten That's Fourteen three Three and four and one and two That's this is the thing. I was okay. Oh, thank you guys for the happy birthday Thank you. Also great Fox for the happy birthday this I command I stand commanded. Thank you very much guys Thank you. This this is not one of them. This is a thing that I was looking for And this is this is also not one of them. So this is what we got Okay, this is what we got we've got number one We've got number two We've got number three And we've got number four. Oh, thank you mix mr. Axe likes time patrol You look better and great. Thank you very much. Can you do a chrome by age 50 happy birthday? Yeah I think it's naturally becoming more reflective might my hair So by the time I am 50, I will be silver haired And not like, you know figuratively silver haired. It's basically gonna be yeah, like Like back metal chrome. I'm gonna have I'm gonna have a de stro head Without having to wear a mask So I got where was I I got Number four, I've got number six. I do not have number five. I've got number nine. I do not have number seven and eight Almost lost one almost lost one. I've got number 10 I've got number 11 I've got number 14. I don't think I have anything between 11 14 And I have number 19. So that's it. That's that's all I got and and I'm looking at these I believe we have read all of these Which is the book that starts with Duke tossing the live grenade, I don't remember which one that was Yes, that was the best opening Where where the the player character had to disarm the grenade, you know that Duke just threw in his face How do you do that? It is even possible to Disarm a grenade after The the pin has been pulled. I mean, I like I assume I Assume like you get if you haven't released the handle you could put the pin back in maybe I'm not a grenade expert But like if once it's been thrown is it even possible? I mean you only have a few seconds anyway so Why would it be possible even if it's possible even if it's theoretically possible? To disarm a grenade after the pin has been pulled and it's been thrown So the handles has sprung off and the the the fuse is going Even if it is theoretically possible There's just no time to do it. Hello showtime. Hello, Joe fan 82. I'm sorry. Joe fan 84 Joe fan 84 I'm used to talking to your older brother I think I said hello to draws if I didn't hello draws hello stone gate creations Hello Nyquist Yeah, that's that's what I'm saying showtime I see that's what I Why I think that whole passage from that book is is absurd because The book opens it opens. This is it opens with Duke pulls the pin tosses the grenade at at us at our character and we have to disarm it Before it goes off and that doesn't make any sense. That doesn't make any sense So Yeah, so that's So that's that's just about the level of realism that we're dealing with here. That's That's a but I do like the books. I there these are fun. These are fun. They're made for kids There's a surprising amount of death and violence in the books Being that they're made for kids, but But yeah, we're not we're not You know, it's not Tom Clancy. All right This is not, you know, Patriot games or or hunt for red October not quite that level of research that's That's not quite what we're dealing with here But but but they are fun. They are fun. I Do like them and it's fun to kind of do those together and I want to get back to that I just think I need to get More books. I believe we've read all of them so far So, yeah, yeah, I it's showtime abs. Yeah, you're I Completely believe you but Is that even true because one of these find your fate books told me otherwise and I I consider this You know an absolute authority this this this is my Bible right here, you know, you know grenades chapter 2, you know verse 3 Anyway, so that is something that will probably be in the works at some point What's new in gi Joe this week What is new in gi Joe this week to be honest I have not been able to look at a lot of the news because I have had to do some other work That is unrelated to gi Joe so Usually, excuse me, usually What's on Joe mine and a couple other channels the full force they are on top of the news and one of the things that I Thought I would be able to do doing this This YouTube thing is that since I'm you know doing this a lot I'll be able to really stay on top of everything Watch everybody's videos keep on on top of the news keep track of everything. Well, that that's It's a nice theory. It's it's a nice idea Hasn't entirely worked out that way. Hello Jay Shelley and I think I said hello to Jake. Hello Bob's Dungeon Hello action figure expert. Thank you Matt Rubin Matt says happy birthday. Why someone has an entire collection of gi Joe choose your own fated adventure books on for $600 on eBay. That's what I need, you know, I All I have to do is like not eat for a month and I can do it And hey, I need to lose some weight anyway, right? This is that's a good plan. It's a good plan. This is this is how I'm gonna get a full complete set Well, why get them piecemeal when you get them all at once it is kind of cool though that somebody has all of them And I do keep an eye out for them Like I do, you know hit antique and collectible shops in the area and often like when I go on road trips I will hit the antique and collectible shops in in other towns But you know and I keep my eye out for them and like I said, I in fact I saw one last week But it was one that we already had it was I'll show you which one it was It was not that that's not even a Where was it it was oh, yeah, it was this one. Yeah, so, you know, I recognize the cover so I didn't get it Yeah, that's a yeah a lot of covered wigs. That's that's exactly right. Hello, Tony Jackson. Hello, Sean Beckett Yeah, it takes a lot being a fan with all the great GI Joe content out there there are a lot of people Doing a lot of great stuff for GI Joe a lot of great GI Joe themed YouTube channels and podcasts and and blogs and other things and Yeah, there's there's a lot there's a lot going on right now and one thing that I'm impressed by is There's a lot of really good quality work, you know High quality stuff coming out. That's fan-made, you know without the support of Hasbro or anything but fan-made stuff that's really pretty good and You know, I was out of the loop for a year and and and Even more has been started or created since then There there are some things that really came Kind of Came up and things that were created during my absence, you know, I'm catching up so So if you are out there and you're creating videos and stuff for GI Joe And I haven't been able to Watch or listen to or read your stuff yet. I apologize. I'm drawing. I'm just impressed with how much How much there is? Can I show the cool Cobra convergence logo, you know, let me see if I can do that here Hold on I think I Can do this and this and This and Let's listen to that one. Okay, I might have to well, that's not too bad Yep, just a little teaser for Cobra Convergence 6. That is something that I need to do a lot more work on There's some organizational stuff that I need to to really jump on Okay, yes peg warmers, I believe we've discussed this before but I'm glad you brought it up Peg warmers says tomorrow on my show. I'm interviewing a gentleman who sculpted 90s GI Joe figures eight 90s GI Joe figures So that's gonna be great as soon as the link goes up. I will share it And I will watch it. So So that's awesome. See, this is what I mean there's so much great stuff out there and What's remarkable is I thought there was a lot of great stuff Before I took the hiatus and I come back and there's even more going on and It's it's amazing and and I'm really impressed. I'm really impressed with what everybody is doing The novel of people's first action movie, okay Okay, well, it's okay Bob, that's all right, no problem. No problem, but thank you. Thank you for thinking of me But anyway, so yeah, I just felt like hanging around with you guys for an hour So I think that's what I'm I'm gonna do Now this Hold on this has you know, 3d. Joe's has collected a lot of the painted artwork for GI Joe and I believe he's got these as well these Marvel books Storybooks and I thought they these came with like a tape or something But I could be mistaken But the artwork Hey John room John Ramita John Ramita is one of the artists in here. I say that and like This one's and not in the best conditions like some pages came out of the middle But the artwork in here is really good. I wonder which pages John Ramita did it doesn't say But maybe we can identify it by his style But like this is this is pretty good painted artwork That's pretty good. Yeah So like I don't know if this would necessarily work for story time because it's no We there's that's not a find your fate thing where you decide, you know What choices to make So it's not that kind of book Okay, what plane is that all right, well Like that's not a that's not a sky striker Anyway, so yeah, but this has got some good artwork on it It's but it's it's like it's it's like a little kid's book But still the artwork is good like look look at this Cobra commander that that's a pretty good Cobra commander. I would say Yeah Yeah Anyway, so yeah, that's So there's that and then the other thing that I have handy here is Is this which is a checklist this this collector's book And there's there's no artwork on the inside at all. Well, I take that back like there's there's a little bit of like Like a shadow, you know artwork of some figures in the background But it's mostly just just the items available just a list of the stuff And I believe if I'm not mistaken this came with a collector's case that was made in 1993 and It's it's I this is actually pretty helpful. Um, I mean, obviously there are lists of Of just the stuff that was released elsewhere like I mean you can go to Yojo or or Like You know look at the Belomo guide and you know it has that stuff listed and and those have pictures, you know They have actual pictures, but it it can be interesting to see, you know, what Hasbro is calling the things So that it can give a little bit of insight on You know, basically how Hasbro listed these internally Because this looks like This looks like somebody essentially copied and pasted a spreadsheet and sent that to the printer I mean, it's it's I mean this is it's a little dry except for like Already showed that page Some of these pages don't have any artwork on them at all, but there I mean there's a there's a little bit But it's it's it's not a bad little like Research tool sort of it doesn't have like a lot of useful information in it But you know, it's nice to have and it had it has some at least But yeah, oh hey look at that There's a phone number on here I won't show you the phone number. I don't want anybody to call it No pranksters. No pranksters. Although You probably find this book on eBay and then look at the back and get it anyway, but I'm not gonna give it to you I want any prank callers asking if their refrigerator is running But yeah, it's it's apparently the phone number for Hasbro, Inc. in Pawtucket, Rhode Island here printed on the back So anyway, so but that's that's like all that I have immediately around here that is GI Joe Related anybody come in that I missed hello, bad ape in case I I didn't say hello to you. Hello. They gone. I think I missed you but hello again Hello, Corey. Thank you very much for joining So, yeah, let's see Yeah, oh, I guess you guys were explaining. I'm sorry I was trying to see what what the conversation was about, but I guess you were explaining something that we already talked about Hello, Michael Pytel and Hello, white Vegeta and Anybody else who came in hello? Hello to you all Yes, if they have Prince Albert in a can I don't know no pranking no pranking But yeah, that's that's basically all I have in the the immediate vicinity that is GI I mean, I mean other than this right obviously I have this stuff, but that's all I have like Around here. That's GI Joe related. So I Don't have any more show and tell All right. So, you know how last week I said that I Had had a very productive week and I got video work done and the week before that I Said that I had a very productive week. I didn't get a lot of video work done But I got a lot of writing and prep work done and it was ready to shoot video This week I Have not been productive I've been like really kind of deluge with with other stuff things that just will get in the way and Make it difficult for me to sit down write an episode Did I ever do prank calls as a kid I seem to remember doing that on a couple of occasions, but It was just like really dumb stuff with like people that I knew and I would like hang up It was in the days before caller ID. So it was a really long time ago That caller ID has been around for for quite some time and So I don't remember like what It was it was just dumb stuff But it's kind of just kind of silly things that you would you know call and tell somebody and then hang up real quickly And I think you're some kind of weirdo Which I guess we were and yes, I had accomplices. I didn't do it by myself But yeah, it's Yeah, it's I seem to remember a couple of occasions I'm sure the statute of limitations has expired on that. So I don't have a lot to worry about Prank Timmer by sending him a whole bunch of septic tanks Yeah, we did the we did the the joke about the septic tank In the septic tank review But then you know when I sent him the care book the care package I like really did send him the the septic tank and since I had already reviewed it and hello JK siege, thank you very much for joining Since I had already reviewed the septic tank. Oh, thank you Chad a happy birthday B. Thank you, too I like the a in the two. How's the go fund me going? Did you meet your goal? Not yet? It's very close. It's it's very close. It's kind of my fault that it hasn't meant the goal yet Because I haven't been promoting as much I mean There's some time and I'm already kind of committed to going anyway because I've already booked the hotel I've already booked the the table It's already booked so So I kind of have to go now at this point. I I would be I would be out, you know the what I've already expended for it if I didn't go So I'm definitely going. Thank you for mentioning it The link for the go fund me is in the description of this video And I try to put it in in most videos unless I forget What the deal is is I'm trying to go to Joe Fest in Augusta, Georgia this year in June And I need help to to get there. That's just how it is right now and And we're essentially almost there that we are more than three-quarters of the way there. We are very close But anyway Thank you for reminding me Chad that is something I should talk about more often I'm not super comfortable asking people for money. So that's what makes it difficult, but I still should do it. So So, thank you. Thank you. I'll thank you for mentioning it And thank you Cyclonus for the happy birthday and I apologize if I missed any happy birthdays That were mentioned before. Thank you very much. I Greatly appreciate it when I start like looking at stuff like this and talking like this I can't it's impossible for me to read and and yammer on about stuff at the same time So I apologize if my eyes shift away from the the live chat I just I it just scrolls by and I miss it So I apologize for that and thank you to everyone who is here and thanks for everyone who said happy birthday It's very nice. Thank you very much Anyway What else what else have I got what what else have I got? I am asking you you the viewer. What else have you got? Huh, huh? I Don't know. Well, why don't you tell me what I've got? Do something to fill the next 40 minutes, please do something to help me fill the next 40 minutes This is why this is why we do show prep. Thank you This is why we do show prep. Okay Have you ever thought of issuing more pins says JKC's yes, I have actually and if I can afford it at some point I will because I really like the pin promotion for those of you who don't know. Hello. Yo, Joe, and thank you very much For I'll what's the Cobra convergence? I will discuss that the figure 6 fact in just a minute What JK is referring to as far as the pins I did a promotion on Patreon that basically all of my patrons could Would be given a pin it's a It's the gold head steel brigade pin that I created and I had them made And it was just an extra bonus thing just to show my appreciation and some of you guys still have them Which is really cool. Thank you And I printed a limited number of them a limited number and And basically it just all you if you were a patron all you had to do was just Send me your address and I'd send it to you I I'm all I'm not quite out of them now, but I'm almost out of them I'm low enough that I probably shouldn't Use them as a promotion anymore because I don't have very much to send out But I would I would like to do it again, maybe a new pin a different pin Maybe a pin for some other purpose the reason I did the gold head steel brigade is because the patrons had helped me Acquire a gold head steel brigade figure to review So that was a big deal for me as a collector That was a big deal and it was such a big deal that I felt that I needed to provide some additional Acknowledgement to the people who had had helped so So I did the pins I just thought you know why not I'll just do that it and and Make sure that everybody knows how much I appreciate everything they do If I were to do another pin, I'll tell you I'll tell you and thank you. Thank you JK. Thank you very much I will I tell you as soon as I remember what I was gonna tell you I'll tell you Oh, yeah, okay. If I were to do another pin what I what I would like to do is a pin for the defiant shuttle complex When that thing is ready for review Some folks have helped me out a lot with parts for the thing. I had been keeping a A list of parts that I needed But I had not updated that because I went on hiatus and then I Moved to a different home. I did take the shuttle with me But I haven't looked at it in a while and I can't really afford to get parts for it Anyway defiant shuttle parts just the parts can be Expensive it's it's a real pain to finish. I'm also concerned about like some of the The vehicle shells Should probably be in better shape before I review it, but I want to get the thing finished. I'm not I'm not it's Unfortunately, it's not feasible just yet Obviously, I have to finish it. I have to finish it because I've got to review it. I'm trying to review everything and and comic tropes wants a review of the defiant that's you know, that's a It that's why I have to do it, you know, it's it's been demanded But yeah, I just I've got to make more progress on it some of the Like the the shell the vehicle shell because for those you don't know the defiant shell complex is a complex It's essentially three large vehicles that kind of go together There's the the crawler gantry with the launcher that kind of Tilts up and it launch launches and then there are two space vehicles There's the booster which is this big thing and then there's the shuttle which attaches to the booster and that can deploy so it's it's essentially three large vehicles and on top of that it comes with two figures so two file cards and Some of the accessories for both of those figures can be very rare now fortunately Fortunately, I Look, I got the figures complete even with the rare accessories So at least that's done at least that's done in fact Some of those accessories were kind of ridiculous in price So I wanted to kind of grab them while you know before they got out of my price range So that's taken care of I just got to finish the shuttle. I just got to finish the shuttle Rob says I got my Print rule books for the RPG. Oh, yeah, the RPG. I thought the the digital RPG rulebook was coming out But I guess I guess at least some folks are already getting their physical coffee. So that's really cool. That's really cool Excuse me, I would like to I'd like to see it. I'd like to go through it and Just see what it's about. I am not very Proficient with role-playing games. So I'd rather I'd like to see it I'd like to know about it plus I'd like to support the brand in any way that I can I just have not been able to do that at this time draws is correct Draws is correct. Hello jump in general How do you do? Draws is correct. The defiant is huge. It is big. It is just really big Like in all of its big, I mean you put the thing together and it and it's absurdly large But then when you take it apart Oh, I comic tropes. Thank you very much. Thank you for the RPG So I may have yeah, I may have to learn it I in fact, well, I will since since it's being ordered then I will thank you very much And by the way, make sure you check out comic tropes for all your comic trope needs All comic tropes all the time You know all all he does is comic tropes, you know, he does he you know He he's he does the the Manufacturing wholesaling and retailing of the comic tropes. So don't miss out on the comic tropes And thanks and Chris has been a friend of mine for a while. So I appreciate it what I Appreciate what Chris does big convoy says greeting from the Netherlands greetings Netherlands from the United States Thank you very much for being here Defiant was the second largest GI Joe toy ever made. Yeah, the USS flag is is larger and you you can put the defiant on the deck of the flag But the defiant is still really big. It's really big and whereas the flag is like long and Flat and wide the defiant is just like this big Borg cube, it's this big cube It's not exactly a cube, but anyway, it's it's big. It's like a giant box it when it's all Together and closed up It's it's big. It's it's dense. It's far more dense than the the USS flag the USS flag has a lot to it, but like it's hollow underneath and You know on the backside. It's just kind of like different rooms inside the tower. The defiant is dense. It's got stuff Everywhere and because of that it has a lot of parts and because of that it has a lot of parts Then go missing and then because of that it has a lot of parts that can be hard to find and expensive. It's Redonkulous. Hello photo viper. Thank you very much for showing up. Hello rebel dad. I don't think I said hello to you But hello. Hello heavy load. Thank you very much for joining. There's toy connections another great YouTube channel. Hello toy connections Yeah, the bad bad a doesn't want to be assimilated, but you know what? For you I'm gonna I will risk I will risk being assimilated For you for you guys. I will risk that I am I'm willing to put my Life and my you know individual autonomy on the line on the line To review the defiant I've always wondered something. I've always wondered something. It's probably nothing. It's probably nothing, but In the Star Trek Deep-sake the deep-69 series and Star Trek deep-69 there was a ship called a defiant and Is it a poor or a pretty important ship to the in the series? It was very prominent and I always wondered if somebody working on Star Trek at that time Would have been like it would have been somebody like in in their mid 20s Maybe who had collected who may have collected G.I. Joe around 1987 you know so it may have been like mid-teens when the The defiant came out and and somehow influence like I want to I want to find the influence I want to find that that that secret connection between G.I. Joe and Star Trek. I mean defiant defiant It and it could be a coincidence. There are other vessels called the defiant. It could have been named after a lot of different things, but but It could Have been named after our defiant By a stealth G.I. Joe fan some young individual who Infiltrated like a crimson guard like a crimson guard infiltrated the ranks of Paramount Studios and And planted the seed of naming that vessel after our defiant That's my theory You know, I don't normally go in for conspiracy theories, but I'm pretty sure that one's real I'm pretty sure that that one's real. In fact, I'm sure enough. I'm sure enough that I'm just gonna consider it real and I'm prepared to start that internet rumor right now Let's let's start the internet rumor here. All right. Let's begin the rumor mill. Okay. Let's begin the rumor mill and Perhaps we will you know through Constant repetition. Perhaps we will make it true. Huh, huh? Yeah, that like and I think if eventually if eventually IMDB Updates that on the page and then that makes it official, you know, that is a complete inaccurate historical record So, yeah, that's what I'm thinking. That's what I'm thinking So, yeah, that's that's my theory and I'm sticking to it How did how do we Get off on that. So why don't why doesn't anybody stop me when I start these tangents? It's not good. These tangents are not good Who has come in did I say hello to killer weezer hello killer weezer in case I didn't say hello. Hello, Michael Mitchell Mitchell Yeah Why they made the crusader they didn't keep some of the parts of the defiant would have been really cool To be able to swap the shuttles out. Yeah, the Their crusader it has some differences. I mean, it's It's mostly the same vehicle mostly the same vehicle, but it has it has some differences One thing that I'm trying to find out. Oh, thank you Chad for the super chat There is a connection Michael Bell was in the first episode of next generation. Absolutely correct Duke Was in there and obviously he voiced Duke. They exist in the same universe. See Chad Chad has connected the dots here Chad has connected the dots. Thank you very much Chad. I QED I think we have nothing we have nothing to add We have proven it beyond a reasonable doubt that would hold up in in a court of law I rest my case.

I have no idea What that page is but I will show you this it's not gi Joe related. I discovered this book I'm gonna I'm gonna get this close so you can get the title and the author This is the worst novel ever written This is the worst novel ever written if you if you enjoy Famous failures like I do I have a kind of a An interest I guess you would say in in famous failures. This is a famous failure So if you want to look at that on on the Amazon or on the eBay or whatever other internets You use that's it's not gi Joe related, which is why you know, I just picked it up I was I was just showing you the gi Joe related stuff that's around here And I when I pulled when I pulled these down I had this like next to it I kind of pulled that off the shelf too. So anyway Yeah, so yes ambition yes, you have to I mean you have to have some ambition to To write the worst novel and by the way, I will add I will add That I have the greatest respect I have the greatest respect for Anyone who attempts to create something And fails like I respect the effort, right? They can't all be war and peace, right? They not everybody's gonna be Picasso, okay. Hello Yorktown Joe. I just saw you there. Thank you very much for joining Is it reverse psychology? Yes, it's a I Actually wrote this But no, I like all the bad movies that you see like the famous bad movies. They are bad, right? They are I mean They can be so bad. They're good or they can be just bad, but you know, they're bad But I still respect the effort the effort to You know create something the the risk that it take that is taken in putting something out there in And taking the risk to you know subject yourself to you know criticism and Yeah, that takes courage. It takes courage. It takes effort. It takes Spine it it really does so I respect I respect the famous failures I will respect a famous failure far more than someone who Succeeds without effort as I I respect the risk. I expect the risk taking I expect the the the daring that it takes to to fail that that thoroughly What five GI Joes would I attend a movie with? Well, let's see skidmark ice cream school soldier scoop Another ice cream soldier And Colonel courage Those were literally the first names that popped into my head That was about as random as it could possibly be Thank You mark. Thank you for a respect and you know, I'm working on I'm working if you know Fail maybe But fail famously we must if we're gonna if we're gonna bomb we might as well, you know bomb famously The track review hey, we've got it the track reviewer here. Thank you very much Says Chris lotta who voice cobra commander in Sunbow a series of GI Joe appeared in two episodes of deep say a space nine There you go. There you go That's now I don't think I don't think that necessarily I don't think Necessarily it's Chris lotta himself that did it what I think is Chris lotta and Michael bell conspired to To get a Crimson guardsman hired on Behind the scenes perhaps just some lowly copy boy some lowly copy boy And like they originally intended to to call that ship something like the the SS George Washington or something the SS Gerald Ford they were gonna call it, you know the the SS Jimmy Carter or whatever and this this This copy boy this secret crimson guardsman is like they're like hey go copy this script and he takes the script and he's like a race a race Defiant and that's how they do it. That's how they do it That's how they do it Just that it's the copy boy and then every copy that he makes and everybody forgets right there They're not thinking about it. You know, I can't remember what US president they named it after but I'm I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure this is How it happened so yeah so Yeah, let that's some That's pretty much all I got Well, hey, what's that? vote Haven't done a poll in a while. I should do a poll. I should do that soon Anyway, how is progress on the HCC 788 movie progress is not not good. I wouldn't say that's good I think I did mention that I had an idea for a movie About me sort of It wouldn't be starring me though I it would be a fictionalized movie of my life and the setting was gonna be it was going to be a trip to to Joe Fest Much like we are doing later this year, but it would be a trip to Joe Fest. It would be a road movie In which I would meet, you know several, you know other Content creators and collaborators, you know like like a lot of those shitty YouTube movies What's on Joe mine? Thank you very much the seeing cats you missed them. We just had them We just had them. Why do you always show up after the singing cats also? Congratulations to what's on Joe mine on the one 0000 subscribers welcome to the four-digit club. Thank you And congratulations What the hell was I talking about what the hell was I talking about I was hold on I'll just connect the dots Oh, yeah, okay, so the HCC 788 movie so it's a road trip. So it's gonna be a road trip, you know, you meet several, you know of Characters along the way. I can't play myself though. I would do a cameo. I would do a cameo But my role would be played by Chris from comic tropes. So Chris from comic tropes plays me And and I'll write myself as just a total Jackass right on my character, you know, I don't want to like toot my own horn everything or anything So I'll make myself the bad guy Not not that I think that Chris would be necessarily Great at playing a bad guy. I just think that I think he could fit the role. I think he could do it So, yeah, it's it's a road trip movie road trip movie. Maybe a buddy road trip. I'm not sure Partial reenactment of planes trains and automobiles, I think I think with a few references to forest gump I think this is great. I think this is gonna work I And and at the end like at the end I have to learn some valuable lesson, right? I have to learn that, you know You know, you got to share your toys or something or you know, you got to like Care about things or some bullcrap like that. So there'd be some moral lesson at the end, you know That I will progressively learn throughout the you know, yeah, thank you Chris Practice your your professor grandpa. So anyway, I think this is great. I think this is great Tom seismor could yeah We see what see if that's in the budget. We'll see Jay Leno I got something I got I got something coming for Jay Leno. You guys just wait. I got I've got plans I got plans anyway Oh, yeah, Hans Chow is here. I didn't see Hans could show up. Hello Hans. Thank you very much for being here Yeah directed by Michael, but see Tony has the right idea and look what I think is Yeah, absolutely. I'll write in there. There was a love scene in planes trains and automobiles There was sort of it kind as a matter manners speaking. Anyway What what what was I saying? Okay Anyway, what was I saying? Oh, yeah, okay. No, here's what I think So we're gonna write the script. Hello, Laura. Thank you very much for joining We're gonna write the script and it's gonna be so good. We're gonna show it to To Oliver Stone now, no, no, not all or so. We're gonna show it to Steven Spielberg It's gonna be so captivated by it That he will make the movie for free So that's my plan is to But to type out this script and it's gonna be a good one it's gonna be at least 25 pages right so a really good solid tight script with with several subplots, okay, and You know and copy that out on some nice quality copy paper And you know staple it together staples solidly together You don't want it coming apart in the mail And then like right on the front dear mr. Spielberg This movie is great. Please make this movie for free and then we send that off You know send that off to to Steven Spielberg and I I just I think it has to happen. I mean how could it not? Yeah, we need an old yes an old-school PSA see that's you're on the right track Movie needs to be made and directed by Kevin Smith. I think he would do it. I think he would do it Yeah, in the in the style of clerks in the style of clerks if it were a road movie So just just imagine clerks as a road movie Yeah, you're picturing this right you're picturing this right. Yeah Yeah comic tropes, yeah, I don't know if you've seen like some I've seen a few clips of Steven Seagal's more recent movies Yeah, he tries not he basically does everything sitting down as much as possible and any walking that has to be done His stunt doubles got to do that. They have to shoot him from behind Hello Wilkinson studios, thank you for joining and Yeah, Steven Seagal as the the viper I think That might be too much effort anything is to he doesn't even talk anymore He doesn't like moving his lips is too much efforts. So we talked like this. This is just the best you can do That that's how he talks. Hello, uh, Diego. Thank you for joining So yeah, this I think I Think we can make this happen. In fact You know, if we put our minds to it we can accomplish anything. I don't see how it could not happen I was thinking that there wasn't enough time to get it done You know by Joe Fest this year because June is coming up pretty soon it takes some time to make a movie but You know, if I if I can time fast and get that script done, maybe we maybe we could make it happen, you know I mean So I was thinking like next year. I was thinking next year, but you know, maybe this year So that'll leave my next go funding go fund me. I will need About a dollar 98 I will need about a dollar 98 and postage to send that To send that Okay, alright, I can't do it. I can't do it anymore. Stop stop stop Yeah, for a while youtubers were making movies starring themselves Yeah, I don't think there was a single good one. Yeah Yeah that Yeah, so they were Maybe there was a good one, but for the most part they're they're pretty rough Anyway The game oh the game is a game chasers made their movie. I wonder if that's a good one Oh When pegwars has props to the AVG and I have to admit I haven't seen the AVG in movie. I Should see it though. Like I've seen lots of others. Why haven't I seen that one? That's probably like the most famous one I'll watch it. I'll watch it. Um, anyway, yeah Yeah, see everybody's got casting ideas and I think those are all great. Hello WWJ D85 Yes Yeah, if somebody could just super chat me a dollar 98 for postage so I can send that script to see Steven Spielberg I I kind of wish I could do that I I just want to see the look on the face of the intern that opens the envelope and And I want to see how long it takes for some people to knock on my door and visit my house and have a little discussion With me about why we don't bother mr. Spielberg Just you know Just for fun. Just see see how that works Thank you see Matt Rubin has paid for postage. There we go. Thank you Matt Thank you Matt see it now like that seals the deal I mean, it's gonna be low low budget movie Anyway, I do think probably the the biggest expense will be paying for the postage to send the script to speed Steven Spielberg You know and now we've got that covered So we're good. We're good Yeah, yeah, the ABGN movie was a little bit different Not that I've seen the whole thing. I've seen some clips of it, but they do use actual actors and most of the YouTube content creator movies are Amateur works you might say Now that's not necessarily bad. That's not necessarily a bad thing in itself and and there are some that I guess I've enjoyed a bit like they kind of feed into the lore of that channel or group of people but some of them are slightly lacking in Technical filmmaking skill a Little bit that and again, that's not fatal. That's not that's not a fatal flaw that there are tons of movies that have been, you know That are famous and have garnered a cult following without having great technical skill Hardware wars there's one that comes to mind. I mean that thing is like looks like it was, you know Filmed on one of the like it's it's junk. It's I mean tech on it from a technical Perspective, it's it's it's pretty awful, but famous, but it's famous it, you know, it was It was it was the YouTube parody video of its time A good yes, Rob is correct a good film editor can cover a lot of sense that is truly told That is Truths that what the what you said the it's been Express that You know the story of a movie is is created essentially three times the first time when it's written The second time when it's filmed on the third time when it's edited and it can like what it ends up as When it's edited can look quite different from how it looks on the page the editing Can make all the difference? Thank you. I thank you Ivan. I am also yeah I'm here to declare my candidacy for president of America So let's get that going to and I think really once we get the publicity going for this movie, you know I think that's the time to really launch my political career a little space Cobra Yeah, so hardware wars was nice enough to be only 13 minutes long. So yeah, that's Yeah, you're a good point you got to be smart about this if you're gonna make a Technically flawed movie try not to make the audience sit through it for too long, right? You know, that's just still pro tip Thank you very much Tyler. Thanks. That's awesome. Thank you very much sold your figures 20 years ago and regret it Yeah And for me, I don't have any of my childhood. Well, okay, take that back I have I have almost none of my childhood toys I had a toolbox that had a bunch of figure parts in it and that's all I had left All the other stuff that I had as a kid gone my parents Swear they didn't throw it out but I didn't throw it out somebody threw it out and It was in their possession You know, it was in their garage and their attic You know as you do, you know, you leave things you move off You leave things at your parents house that you don't have room for whatever and They're not around now. So Again, I'm no law scientist, but I'm pretty sure that's how evidence works Wow peg warmers has hardware wars on VHS that is impressive that that's that's impressive That's that's pretty hard hardcore And and hardware see the thing is and hardware wars for whatever it is It's funny. It's and especially it's funny of the day like it it really I mean the comedy may be a little bit dated now, but I still think it's pretty funny, but at the time that kind of Crazy irreverent sort of humor would have really hit so yeah, it it got a following it It got you know, it people remember it It's got its own. It's got its own You know fan base out there Yes, a photo viper is right you can start recollecting any time I do recommend if you're gonna collect You know set the parameters of your collection It really is not Necessary and probably not preferable to have everything Especially for the prices things are going for right now For the prices the things are going for right now, it's it's it can be really expensive So just you know set the parameters of what you want to collect and and focus on that It won't be too bad but Yeah, the dirty dozen and the green 13 you know CC6 news is the news is I've really got to work on it The news is I intended to work on it a lot more this week and the news is I got busy I had to do it like a whole bunch of other stuff had to do a bunch of stuff today I had to go to the bank today and all this crap So I ended up not getting A lot of work done, but I'm going to I'm going to go into what we've got like like it's gonna happen It's all like the The most important parts are done, but there are certain other things that have to also be finished You know before the thing launches things like having a Full logo ready the the logo you see right there. It's kind of a teaser logo right there There will be a full logo and like last year Have I gone to the movies lately? Yes, I saw the Batman Not just any Batman, but the that Batman I believe the one I saw was the Batman the the only one the first one So I did go to the to that movie lately. I thought it was good. I did. I liked it. I like it But yeah, I was gonna say like in previous years for those who are not like like featured presenters and who have you know some Content outlet that they would like to they'd like to participate There will be a logo. You'll be able to use Cobra convergence branding for your stuff if you want to To create something for Cobra convergence, even if you're not on the calendar and like previous years I will you know put that in a weekly promo video so we can show that to everyone get that out there so that That more people can see it and and I'm hoping to get a lot of good participation this year So yeah, I'm hoping it'll go good knock on wood Tyler says hasn't made the plunge yet Thought about going into classified figures instead of a more As more about an homage instead. Yeah, that that is reasonable Certainly classified figures are I mean some of them can be expensive, but of course the the line is still going And I will tell you that I was someone who Did not think that I would like the classified series But I got them, you know, I wanted to be supportive of the brand, you know I wanted to try them out. I picked up a few figures and I ended up really liking them I was surprised. I was expecting to not like them But I ended up liking them a lot more than I expected and you know I'm keeping up with the series with the help of some viewers and I thank you to those who sent in some classified figures recently There were some in the most recent PO box unboxing video. Thank you. Thank you to everyone who did that You are helping me, you know, keep up with that series Class of Friday. I've been doing GI Joe classified reviews every Friday I do not have the video done yet for this Friday That is another thing that I am a little bit frustrated at that. I haven't able to get to fortunately It's only Tuesday. It's only Tuesday. The week is not done yet So there's still a possibility that I can get get to this stuff and get it done And by the way, I'm talking like I'm behind or something. I'm not really behind right?
