Speaking of which, I'm regular me Keri Chakras. I'm joining me as always. Amazing co-host, Issa Badiola. Hello Issa. Hello, it's regular Issa. I'm joining the regular cast. Hello. Hello regular. Fellow regular. Hello fellow regular. Our next person on this cast, though regular is still very special, Erin Wynne. Hey, it's me, special regular guest, Erin Wynne. We gotta make sure we don't say irregular because that is a different. It's true. I'm a guest, but I've been on like the most. And then now an actual irregular special guest, Josh Flanagan here to grace his presence. Who is that man? Recurring co-host Josh Flanagan here as always to add the comedy. Oh, Josh. Classic Flanagan. That's what we always say. And then we have that graphic that's like, yeah, put that up. Put that graphic up. Yeah. Now, did you, did you move to the room that you're in because of the background color we're doing? Because it does look like your, your chroma key now and it's amazing. I did. I actually painted the wall just in time. Wow. Yeah. Yo, I have action people. You're just like, oh, I want it done. It's awesome. Yeah. It's very good. I like it a lot. Immediately for it. Yeah. How are you all doing? And also feel free to not answer that based on how last week actually let's talk about the weekend. Let's talk about the fun part of the weekend. You say that. Well, okay. Okay. It's fine. What happened? So for, for a lot of us in, in Texas, in Austin, Texas on a Sunday, it snowed, which although the, the larger implications of what that means for our climate scares me. I had a lot of fun out there playing around through some snowballs. That was great. I had a lot of fun. Aaron, how, how, how did your weekend go? I was robbed of my Sunday. It was enjoyable for about 30 minutes until I lost power around like 130. And I didn't get power back until like 930 that night. That is terrible. Yeah. And basically, I mean, everything's still closed here. And I was like, Oh, shit, I need to like charge my phone and stuff. I can't go to like a cafe or anything. So like half of my day, I was like just in my car trying to like charge whatever I could. I'm so glad your battery didn't die. Oh my God. Yeah. That God don't. Oh, is that, is that not God telling you to get outside and enjoy the snow? Like, I don't know how else you could take that. So you kids in your phones. I did a little bit and then I was like, Oh, it's really cold. I'm going to go back inside. Oh, wait, I can't because there's no heat. And then yesterday my heater died. So that was fun. I got it fixed pretty quickly, though. Okay, that's good. I'm just like, Wow, something 20, 21 is out for me. But does your house not hold heat for like a few hours? It died in the middle of the night. Yeah. So I woke up and the temperature was like plummeting. So I got down to like 59. I think I just give up at that point. Yeah. Like I would like I would cover up. I mean, I wouldn't like jump in an ice bath, but I would cover up. I get on the blankets and I would just be like, I'll see you in 12 hours. Hopefully everything's cool. Like, I just don't know. Like, as I, I'm almost 30 now. I don't know what to do. It is fair. Like at 9 30, I was like, I don't think the lights coming back on. I'm just going to go to bed early. And as soon as I was processing it. Yeah. I was like, all right, bedtime. And then the power came back on. So well, at that point, are you like, well, now I need to like get my weekend in? Exactly. Yeah. I was like, oh my god. Internet time, computer time. I wanted to point out this one question from what is life and chat who asks, so who has longer hair, Josh or Aaron? I mean, I could have like a ruler. Oh, it's pretty close. That's really close. I think Aaron's hair is like, oh man, actually it's really hard. I don't know. Well, like siblings or something. Yeah. Y'all both got that Jesus look going on. That Jesus look. Oh, Josh, don't do. Whoa. So fancy. I can't do that. My hair is all nasty. I think we have to blur Josh now because that was too sexy. Sexy Jesus cosplay. Yeah. I mean, you've had longer hair for a while. Is that like, is that, how much of that is a symptom of work from home or how much of that is just like, just, you just like rocking that look? A lot of people have long hair right now for that week. Yeah, exactly. I, yeah, no, this is not my quarantine look. This is a look I didn't find. I've had long hair like here and there growing up, but I didn't really find this look until, actually until like I basically got to Rooster Teeth. I think I spent my first year at Rooster Teeth growing my hair out and then it just became a look and the beard too. So it was one of those weird things where when I have full beard and I shave it off, people online like freak out like it ruins their day. Who is he? Oh no. Oh my gosh. There we go. Mike is like, that photo and he's like, where am I going to use it? Where am I going to use it? He had, he had his chance when you said sexy Jesus, I thought that photo was coming up. It's okay. We'll just use it again. Yeah. Oh, there we go. That's up here. Two Jesuses. Geezy. Geezy. I feel like you're looking good. You look like a, like, was it season 10 of Always Sunny where Mack was like bigger and then he got skinny? Like you look like season 12 Mack right now. Yeah. Thank you. I, this is, I, I mean, I was already on the road to fitness in 2019. I lost about 20 pounds that year and then I lost like another 20 pounds in 2020. And I feel like one of the few people who quarantine was good, you know, like a lot of people like put the quarantine 15 or whatever. But for me, my biggest vice is eating out. And as soon as all the restaurants shut down, I go, what do I do? And I got, oh, like, and then I found this thing called a stove and you can put eggs on it. Like it's, it's a marvelous invention. I'm sure. Yeah. I just, I look at these eggs and I'm like, I don't, what do I do? Yeah. That's a lot of, I mean, I could just open up my phone and have Starbucks now. I know. And I still do that some, but I don't know for whatever reason that put me in the habit of making small, simple meals. And I kind of replace, especially because I had diabetes. I may still have diabetes, but like, you know, like I just kept swapping in like sugar-free options, just one at a time until eventually I had a lot of like healthy stuff that I actually liked the taste of. So yeah, I don't know. I'm like, yeah. 2020 worked out, I'll say. Hey, I mean, look, I, we talked about this a couple of times ago. It's like, we, you know, I don't want to, we shouldn't ignore the positives. I mean, there was an innumerable about innumerable amount of negatives, but let's not completely ignore the positives either. Yeah. Speaking of which, a positive is one of the reasons we want to have you on, which is Dead Little Roosters just premiered. Was it on the eighth? Four days ago? Yeah. Three days ago. Yeah. On the eighth. Yep. It's very good. Can you, I guess, can you for anybody who maybe hasn't seen it yet, could you kind of like talk a little bit about it and like what it is and maybe the interesting way y'all had to make it, because it is a very high quality product that was made in 2020, which is hard to do in live action right now. Yes. So that was the goal, right? We were trying to say, how could we make something that feels, that has the same premium feel as pre-COVID stuff, but do it in a way that was compliant with kind of the way you have to film? And at the same time, and the two, like Fiona, Nova, and I were both working on kind of two parallel projects, like she was pitching a murder mystery inside that had a similar thing like this lock-in mechanic. And I thought this would be a great time to bring Little Roosters back because it has an interactive mechanic and people need stuff to do right now, right? They just need entertainment. And one of the cool things about 10 and 11 Little Roosters, which are kind of old by now, 10 Little Roosters was six years ago, which is kind of wild. That's wild to think about, yeah. Wow, yeah. It's a toddler. I know. I thought toddler went to five. It's like a pre-teen. I don't know what six years ago was. You're in first grade. Kids, children. Yeah. They, so I thought bringing that back would be cool because then people could have something, could watch an episode, then have something fun to do in the week, do an investigation. And those ideas kind of merged. I heard Fiona was also pitching a thing, so instead of competing, I just called her up and I was like, hey, we should just merge these ideas into something. And so yeah, so we shot, basically, it's a murder mystery. It stars Rooster Teeth people as themselves. And the premise is that they've been invited to this mansion, promised a fortune, and then the host that brings them is murdered. And we actually pick up the story after that, once the police have arrived and have quarantined all the suspects in their individual rooms while they try and sort stuff out. But somehow, even inside their own rooms, people keep dying because whoever killed the host is one of the 10. Is breaking quarantine. Yeah. So yeah, so that's kind of the base plot. And then there's also this whole sleuthing element that was in the previous seasons where we buried a bunch of clues in the show and you can actually go and try and make predictions of who will die next. And there's a bunch of ways to figure that out. There's like a riddle. There's a weapons list. There's kind of like clue. And you can go to the site, the site's deadlittleroosters.com, and you can go there and put in your predictions. And if you get, you win, you get the fastest stuff each week. We're giving away a switch every week. We're giving away a bunch of Rooster Teeth gift cards. And then if you win the grand prize, it's like a PS5 and an Xbox X and a signed prop and another switch to meet and greet with the cast. Now, are our employees allowed to play? I haven't been able to enact series X yet, so. I don't think so. It probably, I don't, I haven't read the League of Leagues. I don't remember seeing that though. You're probably good to go, which I heard we're going to hear some of your predictions today, which I'm excited about. I, well, I mean, and this is a little, you know, I was going to, I was going to save this, but, you know, last week on Eye of Notes, we made a big deal. I mean, you and I talked and you, you promised to go ahead and, and just tell us, Josh, like you promised that you would just tell us who the murder is. So I thought now might be a good time for you to just, you know, you want to, you know, you kind of want to just say it. Because what I could do is I could say who it really is, and then people would think it was a misdirect. Which is nice. That's true. Although I will say I've been reading a lot of threads that think it's Issa. It's true. Yeah. Okay, real question. Issa's best girl, and if anything happens to her, I'm not going to watch it anymore. Yeah. Erin is the clear she's only going to watch while Issa's around. There she is. Look at that. So we don't know if Issa's going to watch two episodes or all of them. We don't know. Oh yeah, we don't know. You guys, so here's the thing too, everyone else I went to about this show as a cast, it was a quick yes, it was easy. Issa left me hanging. She went, I got to think about it, like she went, I guess she talked to her manager or agent or whatever. She was the only one I had to beg. She made me grovel to get her end of the show. So, I mean, yeah, I mean, if, I mean, if I got invited, I would have, yeah, I would have thought. Yeah. Yeah, Carrie got invited. Okay, so feel free to, this is a real question, feel free to not answer though if this somehow gives something away. Uh, have you, has anybody guessed it? Yes, I saw one, so what's kind of fun this time is I used to have to wait till all of the, the submissions were in and then get like a spit out of the data of like how everyone predicted this week. And there's, there's, the first week, you actually also pick the killer and survivor, like you make your front end prediction for that. It's the only time you get to guess it. And then all the other weeks are only about picking the next victim and weapon. But I saw one person, this first time I've gotten to see the things come in in real time, I've seen one person go four for four and get them all right. Out of, out of like 7,000 submissions. That's crazy. That's a big brain in a page. They should, they should get like a plaque or something even if they don't get the full packet. That's, that's cool. That's, it's always like a, I feel like that's the perfect, that's the perfect response, right? Because if, if half of them had already guessed it, that'd be a problem. But one in 7,000 is like, there's just one smart person watching and y'all did a good job. But we, when we did 10 little roosters, there were fit, I want to say 52,000 people played and only one person out of 52,000 went 16 for 16 on core answers, which is pretty wild. Yeah. Was that a, a Fosh Jalanigan? Yeah, it was really weird and it's weird because the trip we, what we gave away season one was a trip to Rooster Teas, so that was dumb of me. Yeah, it was just like next day, like, all right, no, I get, I get the big one. Where's the Tobochikas? Bring them back. Yeah, I get a straight from Bernie's fridge. Yeah, that's great. That's really good. That's awesome. I, I will say too, I really liked, um, in, uh, y'all were very clear in the first episode of You Haven't Seen It Yet, what the rules were, and you, you were very distinctive like, hey, we're not messing with y'all. Like it's, it's one of these people we're not going to throw something in. Like you can do this. I thought that was a great way. I'm, I'm sure that probably came from past experiences of people assuming that y'all were lying constantly. Yes. Well, I think just trying to orient people on the game as much as possible. And then I've been doing, I've been tweeting all week too, and I'll do it every week. I'm sure as I kind of see the patterns of people, like, you know, I'm hiding in people's discords and all these things, um, trying to see where the slew things going. And so I kind of like, I, like my tweets are basically me patching the game. That's fair. Yeah. Like mid game. Um, so. That's funny. Hey, if every, if every game can come with a day one patch that's so can. Um, Deadly Richers is my cyberpunk. I think you can, I think you should be allowed to compare it to something else if you want to. All right. Sorry. It's, it's my fallout 76. Oh man. You went, that was much more of a lateral move than I thought you might be going for. I'm trying to give you more props. Um, uh, what is this? This is forever is, uh, Issa, you're, you're, you're one of the main, the main stars. How, uh, for, I mean, for, for y'all, like, what, what was shooting like? Um, I'm assuming you were all there at the same time, uh, in a fully built out, uh, accurate hotel. Yeah. Very, very much. They rented out a whole mansion and coughing a lot. Every room. Yes. Yeah. Actually there was my, um, my one great shame of the day was that I actually had a coughing fit in the middle of it. And it was because, um, I was yelling, um, and I needed something warm or I just needed water, but it, I couldn't express that it was because my throat hurt because I was just in the middle of coughing. So I just like ran out the room because I was like, I just need to be alone. But that was also not a great idea. So I just, every time I'm awake at night, I think about it. Uh, that's a good tidbit for you, Josh. Do you, do you think about the people who like laid away that night and was like, it happened? This is it. Every's fine. It's been, it's been a long time since y'all filmed. That's fine. Yeah. It's a, it was, it was really fun. I think one of the, um, fun parts about being, uh, part of the cast, which yes, I made, I made Josh beg. No, I just, that was true. That was true. Talk to your actor. That's how you know, but, um. Your trailer said Mrs. Badiolana. It was really interesting because, um, it's really interesting being part of, uh, just part of the cast because I was just there for a day and actually there's a huge difference in like being a part of my shots and then actually seeing everything come together. Um, because we were all very, uh, the cast itself, I think you guys had split it up between different days, like of everyone recording separately, but the same like crew were there for every single day. Um, so I was there for one day. Um, I was asking Josh during the day. I was like, Oh, so how'd you split the rest of it? Like who, who else came kind of a thing? I know like, uh, I heard if he came over like the weekend or something, things like that. Um, and we all, I did have my own room and I just felt like I was just in there. I was like, I'm not wearing a mask. I feel really bad guys. That's how I felt during extra life. I was like, I don't like this. I don't know. I was just like, Oh, it's really sorry. But it was really fun. Um, I came in, uh, inept because I didn't memorize my lines and that kind of no one did. Yeah. And that totally, um, I felt really bad because, uh, towards the end I was just like, Oh no, this is really fucking me over. I felt really bad. But, uh, everyone was a huge champ and we got through it and I was really impressed. Um, you guys work really hard behind the scenes. And I have such a bigger appreciation for live action shoots. Um, and also I, I feel like I saw another relationship between like producer and director because, uh, the producer on set kept throwing out ideas like, Hey guys, what if we just did this shot like this and then Josh, you and someone, someone else would be like, No, we're not doing it like that. I was like, Oh, this is, this is real life producer and director. I think, I don't think that was because of Jessica Vasami was the producer. I think that was Dax. Yes. Yes. Dax, my bad. Yeah. Who just wanted things efficiently is like, you can't have this. And I was like, Oh, yes, I can Dax. Yeah. It's basically, it's the same thing we go through the animation. It's just ours takes, ours goes over the course of a week and then y'all's is done in like an hour like that one decision. It's just like everything's a lot faster. I mean, Josh, what was it? What it obviously it's very different, but how did it compare to the other, I mean, other literature stuff or even just, I mean, any live action thing like it. I've got to imagine there's a lot that was very much the same, but then also a lot that was very different. Yeah, it's, I mean, so it was very, it was very COVID procedural thing. Yes. And it was, it was, it's basically the first show that they've shot in COVID. So it was the guinea pig for the company, which, which again, Jessica Vasami did a great job of spearheading that. But that meant getting tested three times a week. That meant that, you know, people had separate rooms. You can only have so many people in a room. So like, it becomes this weird game of say you're like, you know, if you need to come in and tweak props or something, you need someone from our department or set deck to go in there, it's like, somebody has to step out a second while that person goes in. So it's this very bizarre thing. Your, your directors, Fiona and I are sitting out in the hallway on a monitor. And then even like, there was even like a flow to, this was shot in the, but the bungalow, the kind of core bungalow, there was even kind of like a arrow chart of like how the whole building should flow. In terms of like, you should, you should go, you can always go counterclockwise to rooms or something bizarre. Kind of like what they do at grocery stores, but you actually probably did it versus everybody else at the grocery store. We more or less did it. I don't know. I'm sure I, I'm sure I walked against the stream a couple of times, but the, but again, there's not that many people in the building either. But even like with meals, like you're not allowed to serve any sort of buffet style thing. So we, you have to bring, they all have to be pre-packaged individuals. We had one day where we actually had to throw out the meals because the restaurant had packaged it in bulk. And when it got to us, the COVID officers were like, nope. And so we said, okay. I think that was my day. That was it. I think because everyone was, everyone kept going, I'm hungry guys. I remember that very distantly. It's like, okay, well, you're going to eat all of the rice and you're going to eat all of the chicken. We're going to eat all of the beans. And it just becomes, you have the nacho cheese. You're going to eat 100 tortillas, Josh. I'm just imagining y'all delivering their food, like prison style through like a little cut out in the door. People can still come get it, but it is handed out by the COVID officer. So it was very interesting, like very martial law. I will say like one interesting thing directing wise was that because we couldn't have the cast all there at once, but yet the show still has a lot of improv. We basically had to tend to do like surrogate improv where someone would improvise one day. We have to write down what all their improv was. And then the next day Fiona and I basically reenact the improv from the last three days or whatever to the person and then let them improv off of it. So it was an experience. That sounds like that could become a nightmare quickly. I am really glad to hear that, I mean y'all didn't, it's really inspiring to hear that y'all didn't have to cut improv or cut the idea of doing improv and be like stick to the script because it's all we have. The fact that y'all figured out how to still do this because you could tell like that's what is going to make this show great, I think is awesome, but I can only imagine how much extra headache that was. No, yeah it is. I think just broadly conceptually speaking too, I think this is the best version of the series too. I think the lessons learned from 10 and 11 were like 10 little roosters worked because it was people getting to be themselves. But it was so it was a little bit too inside baseball I think for some Rooster Teeth people like where it was like a little too inside joke. And then 11, I mean I think they generally will receive series, but the criticisms I saw were that for 10 and for 11. When Rooster Teeth people play characters people don't seem to latch on to that as well unless it's like an animated series. So this is to me was like the best of both worlds. It's like all right let's do something that has a broader concept let's kind of reintroduce people who may not be familiar with all these Rooster Teeth personalities, not have deep dive lore jokes unless it's subtle and it doesn't stop you if you feel like you're not in the club. And then at the same time let the personalities really do a bunch of improvist themselves. So those are kind of the, those are tenets for coming in. No, that's really cool. Davis3969 asked in the chat just now if I was curious, did you all ever play back the other people's footage or was it only this kind of like second hand improv or like second hand reading? Yeah, we always read it, but we had a script supervisor, we had a scripty who like took notes on stuff. So sometimes we would go to her and be like what did they say? But yeah, no it was always me or Fiona pretending to be someone else. There was definitely a couple of times when Josh, you and Fiona were like oh man you should have seen like this one person's performance and I think the scripty actually behind the laptop was like oh come here like you can see it from this screen but it was only like once or twice. That's awesome though. Because they were they were also so busy just trying to make sure that everything else was organized that it took them a bit to like even like pull up stuff because they had to go through all these files. So yeah, yeah it was a process. There's examples of the improv too in the first episode like iffy's thing about Charlene's Angels. The three thick dudes running down a beach. That was one of my favorites. My favorite part is like it's watching iffy's performance and you see him his brain like the cogs in his brain just turning as he's going through. Wait a minute. Three. Thick dude. No. Thick dudes. So we took that to Hannah who she filmed after you know some day after him and we were like okay you have to not only are you reacting to the Charlene's Angels pitch but you have to accept it. And then also and then she and I and then just in the moment we added it into her back and forth phase dialogue and it's like oh phase loves it too and this needs to be a thing. And then Hannah I threw lines around and then we landed on thick thick men move merch. One of my favorite lines but still completely from a bunch of improv. So that's crazy to me. I mean like the the the fact that uh was she always going to accept one or was that just like this is too good? No. Wow that's great. Yeah she's too good. Yeah improv subscribe. I love doing scripted stuff because it's uh chill but improv improv is uh is so much fun. You guys are so good at that too. Speaking of things that are really fun and because we're at the halfway point uh did y'all know that wrestling with the weak premiers uh January 18th that's gonna be on Bruce Teeth's to men YouTube it's gonna be on all your podcasting platforms it's got all elite wrestling Scorpio Sky and Fun Houses James Willems uh they get together and break down the week of wrestling the pop culture sports music movies maybe dead little roosters who knows uh and it's a co-production with Bruce Teeth and all elite wrestling so uh you should uh you check that out and if you still haven't become a first member which is crazy to me uh we appreciate it and you can make an account and it would mean a lot to us and me especially and uh if you if you become a first member in the next 20 minutes Josh will tell you who did it that's legally binding it's a contract is uh is dead low roosters uh first only or is it uh it is first only so that that could have been in that pitch could have said hey you can't you're not gonna be able to win that PlayStation 5 you're not gonna be able to win that Xbox to give to Kerry think about that investment because I am gonna take off the top let's be clear but a couple of dollars a month when you you can keep the switch in the PS5 that's fine I get the Xbox that's it doesn't get better that's savings you're making money and you're supporting us so we would appreciate it okay that was all I had to say at the at the at the middle point I think I appreciate it um if we can if we can get that in and then uh tomorrow uh Josh can yell that at one of the editors um from off-screen um yeah I would uh I would appreciate it this is formally Kerry's audition is uh one thing I kind of ask you Josh was was there anything uh I mean you hinted a couple of these things before but like was there anything about this that you felt like maybe went better because of the the limitations of this I mean you know I think that's that's a common idea is that you know sometimes like limitations can can can bring out or kind of uh force you to be more creative I mean like do you I mean this this idea seemed like it came from the limitations I mean like this wouldn't have necessarily happened if it wasn't for kind of the limitations that we're in right now right yeah I'm not trying to put a silver lining on COVID don't get me wrong I'm just I'm trying to embrace the positives no I don't I don't yeah I don't I don't know that we would have made it if if um if if COVID weren't happening in general um and then the you know I mean one thing that springs to mind is that we even during COVID we were trying to initially shoot on a location but um the leadership really wanted us to shoot on on Austin Studios where Rooster Teeth is um where um so that if COVID like no one knew how the outbreaks were gonna go so they were like that could be the situation where we book a location and then there's a COVID spike because we filmed this in October question mark yeah and they just didn't know it was gonna spike again it's coming into the winter so why don't we make this safe and and shoot on our lot so we can control everything and I think what that led to was the amazing set design of the show by by Lindsey Lipscomb and and Marcus Lepore that just that which looks phenomenal so I don't know that anywhere we would have shot on location would have ended up looking as amazing as as the sets did like just in bungalow e so yeah it's it's it's a definitely a huge selling point of that of this year I mean like it just stands out and like it we said this I think uh while we were in before it's like if you if you didn't know if you're watching this four years from now and you don't you don't know when it was filmed like I don't think you would be able to tell that this was filmed in 2020 it's just it looks great honestly I'm curious what would they had to go through to to be able to build that stuff with all the regulations as well actually we also we found loopholes in it too where because we didn't have a ton of budget oh that's another thing too is like we COVID is expensive like I want to say we spent close to $40,000 on all the COVID stuff wow I mean we couldn't couldn't spend money on the things we wanted to right and so we found these weird loopholes like that the bungalow is where core is now but achievement hunters moving in and we were like great can we go ahead and have them throw out all of core stuff so we can just have basically an empty set and can we paint the walls whatever we want and they're like yeah cool so we took advantage of like this company transition to like be able to basically like wreck the place but if achievement hunter doesn't keep those rooms there I was gonna say like man I wish my apartment looks like that yeah I want the art department to redo my place so is it like uh yeah are they all still standing like or did did was it was it one it wasn't one set that y'all kind of like refreshed out it was like they're all multiple rooms right now yeah every room is every colored wall is a room so there's four main rooms and no I mean most of the furniture is not there because it was rented but some of it was even just repurposed like podcast furniture and things around the office but yeah the four the four colored rooms are still there for sure yeah if we could have every office look like that those forever that would be that would be very good are you gonna talk harry about how you refuse to be part of little roosters despite my repeated requests I don't know what you're talking about I think hey we had a we had we had a user submitted question uh from twitter can we maybe do the second one instead of the first one yeah let's do it this is really important this is uh why don't you go ahead and read it wait me okay this is I need you to read it this is from sary kakras yeah he goes why haven't you cast kary in a little roosters property what did he do now I was a dead body you were a well you were a dead body in a photo so twice removed yeah I basically I could have been some uh some like uh clumped hay um at that point and that would have been uh look I'm just I'm just saying uh I was October is pretty free um you know I I I could be I could be a actually I don't know anymore I've already forgotten uh like this entire thing happened no I mean I like you Josh I'm just I just wanted did I did I did I take too long to follow you on twitter what happened I don't know that's probably true um I don't want to discount that uh but the you know in all honesty I was gonna have you in 11 little roosters I'm sure there's I can find witnesses for this but we were trying to get you in 11 little roosters and I was told this was in 20 this would have been fall of 20 um 16 17 2016 fall of 2016 we filmed December 2016 and I was told explicitly do not touch kary and they might have met physically but I also met as part of the show it might be there's a let's just say there's a period of time where uh the the the thought of me not working on ruby 247 scared some people um but they I it's good hey it feels good to know that so I I appreciate yeah so maybe maybe if there's a a dead or little roosters um they're telling me it could be a franchise so it could finally three three series in yeah um or I mean if you need a if you need an eric body double um oh my god I'm a little thicker but I think we're not the same right Eric is not little yeah I think I'm actually littler than him there you go little littler little eric I could I could be littler eric he could be a little eric and I could be littler eric they need a little list oh well I want to leave room for somebody else I mean I mean this could be a shorter person I don't know um I don't know oh there were actually there was like a real community question um that we got from Twitter or it was kind of real I guess he says he wants to use it yeah we can pull that one oh no it's not it's not he says it's that was the genuine question more tips uh no question mark no question mark in sight and it wasn't more tips either wow don't give it away but do you have do you have any tips for the audience of like maybe like a little mini clue or or or or something that you would you think that that would be good to to keep an eye on um I don't want to put you on the spot either but I'm trying to think what people haven't talked about yet but like if I would say I mean the thing I say to everyone is like the the riddle pay attention to the riddle don't overthink like don't don't go down the weird dire straits the band rabbit holes that I love dire straits as much as the next person I promise you they don't factor into my clues um and I will here's what I could say I don't think I've said before actually is the there's there's certainly things based on rooster teeth lore and shows but it's not that deep it was made the riddles were made so that you don't have to know everything about every show ever in season two episode eight any of that stuff it's just some broad knowledge of a show of who people play or their responsibilities on the show um will basically get you like 90 of the way there so so don't don't overthink it but also think hard also if you now uh okay here's the real clue chat if you take what he just said and you play it in reverse it'll sound weird it will give you any new information at all um you mentioned there's a couple like uh uh discords and stuff of people trying to like figure figure stuff out um go to the community you can all talk it out uh and you can all do a timeshare on the ps5 that you win um I wanted to call out a couple things from chat the one the dire straits thing was funny because I saw someone in chat mentioned that they wanted that to be real way earlier in the show and so you call that out josh just just throw that out there um the second thing I want to call out toe toe is in chat hell yeah hey it's or they want hey it's me and I was like toe it's you well you got your answers yeah are you sorry use a question mark next time toe carry has no punctuation toes just so hungry for more information they like stop processing oh apparently it was actually a mod of that discord so that yeah it turns out it's all coming first I'm starting I'm starting to think the toe might be uh uh josh flying against alt account uh I have a lot of alt accounts so it's hard to keep track do you do that all the time it's great I have to make sure like what I upvote and like what I don't just you gotta be careful I'm like oh let me let me okay hang on wait a race carry is great okay take take that out um um uh I get you uh to kind of wrap up delusion stuff is it any any other clues you want to get or anything you want to talk about it I know uh the the weekly voting uh ends like right before the episode comes out um like the next episode comes out it ends an hour before an hour before your guess is in yeah your predictions need to be in by the show comes out every Friday at 2 p.m central it came out last week on youtube as well just for the pilot but this this Friday it's only going to be on roosterteeth first 2 p.m central standard time and so you have to get your predictions in by 1 p.m central standard time on on deadlittleroosters.com deadlittleroosters.com yes we couldn't get .gov can you say how many episodes there are or not there there are eight total which is the same as the last two seasons events yeah eight total there's a really there's a really fun I can I can tease this there's a really fun I guess you'd say they're animation I think they are uh cameo in in the next episode isa knows who it is uh so yeah it's my character from rta no it's me I was going to go for if it was going to be uh why am I not in it or if it was going to be uh hey should I not mention the secret cameo I oh my oh my oh and then I decided I could do both if I do the joke about not knowing which one I was gonna do um I worked out I think I think I think what would have been best in this series is to have had a photograph of the photograph of your body and just to just take it that much more removed you know just littler littler it's not too late I'll talk to post it's not too late give me the shot I know enough after effects I'll just throw it in the background we can make we can we can make this happen um I don't know who put this in uh our our sheet um and I'm gonna assume that it was either Erin or it was not me actually was it isa no wait who did that that's who well now I don't know let's talk about it Erin do you know about this I do um so there's a little a little uh streaming website called twitch and uh over over the weekend uh one of their beloved emotes was removed let's just say goodbye to pog champ yeah as we know it yeah pog champ pog champ uh which is now apparently turned into uh just have an open mouth yeah is the thing but uh let's just say that the person that pog champ was based off of uh is uh you know uh not not a somebody that we need an emotive there we go uh is the polite way to maybe phrase that um are you learning josh about this I I already I saw this is why we want to have you because you're a twitch expert okay I am a twitch expert I have a lot of twitches mostly from the war and so oh my god I think I I saw this peripherally but I I don't know who who I used to own pogs so I assume he would have a guy that you know made it to the top yeah he had the best slammer he was the pog champion yeah the pog champ yeah um and he he was known because he could fit a bunch of women in his mouth um and that's why there's an emote in his mouth going like uh it's just it's like a two yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah let's we're making a lot of gestures and faces that will never be used against us uh ever um but if I become the new pog champ yeah I give you permission I think you're so are you are you allowed to broadly say what the situation we don't have to dive into it oh I mean he uh I can google it he uh he said some things that uh from what I remember he's some things that were supportive of the things that happened on the 6th oh great yeah uh so later that day it was removed uh and then for like 24 hours people were just typing pog champ uh instead of using an emote because they still wanted they still wanted to believe yeah well I think uh I think the idea here and obviously there's people who are against it but whatever uh I think the idea here is that pog champ has become kind of like batman and that it's more of a symbol ah yes of excitement um and not bad things um I think most people who have seen pog champ are not familiar with the actual pog champ man yeah creator I guess pog champ man I honestly I I uh I've been streaming more and and I've been watching more streams uh and I've just I've reached the point personally where I am too afraid to ask what pog means um so I just kind of like I I act like I know what it means so yeah I I'm I'm in that boat of like I don't know why this was an emote I just know that it's been an emote for a while and now it's gone um but I don't know if this is the meaning but you know in the military this is true there's a uh they say it pog but it's still pog and it stands for like personnel other than grunt so it's kind of a derogatory term that infantrymen like myself use against non-combat mos so fun fact so maybe it's that I don't know I mean that would make sense for believing last week was right but like you know uh well it was in general uh I'm gonna sound so fucking old right now I was about to say like this is like the the buber council right now yeah uh when things are are uh good they are poggers pog um so it's typically a good thing yeah until oh my god yeah that that yeah um so twitch announced that they're gonna do a thing which on paper I think is is really cool is that every 24 hours it's gonna be a new person making the pog face which is cool in theory uh already some some lukewarm reactions to the ones that have been for a couple of them now um I think mainly because they keep they they're doing some photos that don't it's more somebody's just mouth being open and not doing the full I'm like what in body like they don't have the embodiment of right I don't think it's anything against them it's just they're not uh is it a verb can you pog to to pog to pog is it an people in people in chat are saying it means play of the game right that makes that makes too much sense play of the game champ I mean that what what do we just go why don't we just start listing it out all the way and we just say that was play of the game I think I think we abbreviate things too much I think we we try and like we need to absorb experiences more right we have make make sure we're defining it clearly for everyone who hears yeah talking about so like when I'm when I'm watching dead little roosters I want to I want to text Issa wow that really made me laugh out loud the whole like and say the whole thing I'm not gonna lol and then you throw a cap at the end of that oh that'll trick them you keep okay kappa I I'm familiar with the oh Erin educate us please we're all so old no I thought I did but I don't okay check me if I'm wrong kappa is just like to punctuate a sarcastic remark like uh I try to think like the snow day on sunday was great kappa like for good okay okay see I I felt like it was poggers no poggers I felt like poggers was like the excitement I was not excited I wasn't excited for the snow but I hated I hated the snow day kappa hang on I gotta go to kappa is that the supposed to be the reddit equivalent of slash s yeah yes that's what's about right this is what's gonna get canceled because we don't I think this is it's like when zero started saying that you know epic word can be used for anything that's the what that's not a definition the definition they give epic word can be used for anything wait is this the pog yeah it doesn't mean I mean I put in poggers to be clear yeah see that's that's what that's what my interpretation was can I can I give you all the example sentence that they have for poggers that is highlighted as top definition this is on urban dictionary yeah it's not good uh I have 10 kids in my basement wow such poggers oh no that's uh that's not very poggers I would say uh uh okay well I'm done with that that is very unpoggy you said did you learn from that that definition no that's fine so I have to speaking of pog sometimes we'll be in like meetings and we'll have like google hangouts or whatever and I will have mic on but I'll be like typing because I'm like multitasking or something and there's been so many times where I've almost accidentally set out a pog let's just let's just get it in our slack we can add custom stuff now we need to make our own because we don't want to use that one anymore that's true oh that's true we can just make all of our own faces during the yeah josh's first josh oh no josh yeah I would I would take a wait so they took they took that emoji off of twitch but it's still everywhere else I mean like well yeah I mean like like I think we like you have custom ones in slack so that's like they like they they can't they can't we have first remember right they can't come for us maybe I'll just go and delete it when nobody's looking I don't know ooh replace it with something else first but like so quick delete it and then really quickly replace it and then they'll have a nice treat at the end I mean I and I want to take it like I do I do think that it is like a really cool idea to to highlight you know like newer streamers or give more people like an audience by doing this like 24 hour thing I'm just I can't even imagine like how how I feel like that's gonna be a lot more work than it seems but if they can pull it off and keep it going in school it's just like every 24 hours having to make sure they find the new person get it right get it approved and then especially right now where a lot of people I feel like are there's some people who think that it shouldn't have changed there's some people who are like just let it let it die now yeah that I don't know every's always so negative all the time I'm just I feel like it's just gonna be this continuous like bad thing when it should be a good thing it's like hey let's let's use this opportunity to to highlight streamers that that maybe wouldn't have been highlighted before I think we should be leaning into that yeah I think they're gonna cycle through the same ones eventually but it's should my first thought is that they'd go through like what like a week's worth maybe even like a month worth and then they'll like go through because there's so many top streamers right I don't know well can we talk can we talk about some of our favorite streamers or not go for it let's do it yeah oh I mean Josh you know first relax I know this is like streaming is like really big for you actually I have no idea I'm assuming it's not but it could be I don't know no you'd be correct when I'm watching so much so much Mr. Beast when do I have time to watch streaming Mr. Beast I don't have a twitch I don't I don't think so he's a YouTube guy and I gotta I gotta order my Mr. Beast burgers you know I gotta get I gotta I got a lot of money to spend on that guy so I don't have time for twitch has anyone had one yet no no I saw that I saw them on uber eats the other day I went oh I'm at I want to try just to try it wait wasn't there a week special about this what I thought I heard something where people were getting like food poisoning or something from oh that doesn't surprise me and even like a little I might be wrong so you might want to double check that before uh running with it I know it's in there they're all in kitchens of Bucca de Beppo's how can that be who's the ever gotten sick at eating from Bucca de Beppo it's not even it's not even a knock on Mr. Beast it's just we there's a twitch streamer that is now starting a burger franchise uh and I I feel like there might be some speedbombs I don't know I don't know is it like that um into the spiderverse bit where um Peter B Parker tried to make a spider-man um a spider-man restaurant franchise and it tanked like that bit is that what that's is that what this is about I think it's like that but it's working right yeah so it's like if that had worked because it's I think it's working okay um because Mr. Beast is very very popular Aaron Aaron who are your favorite twitch streamers well I mean like before last week's show I was talking to y'all about uh Code Miko who is oh my god a virtual twitch streamer but not in the sense of it being like an animated girl it's like a 3d model and it's like borderline like uncanny valley but she's like cute but kind of like crude um I think it's like rendered real time and like unreal uh engine uh so they're using like a uh a mocap suit almost like a I think it's like a 20 30 thousand dollar mocap suit yeah it's expensive yeah it's quite impressive though and it's uh top tier comedy I quite enjoy it it's very cursed uh but that's my my kind of style so now is cursed good or bad or just what you want I guess it's what you want right yeah Aaron's brand is very chaotic energy like it's always uh keeping me on my toes wait so so there's a 3d model it's somebody in a mocap suit yes and are they still like gaming uh she does like interviews with other twitch streamers and like YouTubers so she's like interviewed um moist critical uh Hasan did she just that's what I saw yeah there's a few others I can't remember but it's mostly I don't think she has done too much gaming uh and then occasionally she'll do like a behind the scene stream where she shows like her setup uh it's uh quite impressive it all seems very uh and I mean this in a good way like Gen Z or young millennial like like the video I watched like the chat was like literally going across her chest yeah in her um face oh yeah she has like an option where you can um uh spam the chat to like change the toggles on the model so if you like want to make her head really small like you just spam like two or whatever it's assigned to and uh there's been some monstrosities created it's pretty uh insane would you say it's poggers it is very poggers okay okay I think I think I'm starting to get it okay man I feel like I between poggers and learning that people do things on twitch that isn't gaming I feel really old yeah oh man there yeah there's a lot I mean it's a lot of gaming but there I mean like uh uh Hasan is uh Hasan Abi he he does a lot of gaming but like he usually starts his streams by like just talking about yeah I think he's a political science major uh and like on Tuesday his stream got up to like 230,000 people it was crazy yeah because it was him watching all of the live news coverage and talking about it um it's I mean so many just the they just broke the record uh I think uh they're I can't remember who it was now exactly I apologize they they got two point I think it was a 2.3 million people watching oh shit I don't know who that was wow in our last like two seconds of the show I'm gonna find it real quick and then here we are not in India trying to make productions uh Spanish streamer the Greg uh the greff uh obliterates all-time uh twitch viewer uh 2.5 million playing Fortnite I believe yeah oh yeah because they uh they revealed uh his official fortnite skin interesting I've never heard of him me neither but hey 2.5 million that's awesome cool go good for him we have we have like three nights left do you have a favorite oh god um not particularly I don't watch streaming as much as you guys are not involved in streaming um uh I know my SO watches a lot of streaming though and they are a viewer of um Seijam and he is a fight gaming uh fight sorry fight gaming um talk a commentator there it is commenter um so he does pretty frequent like uh gameplays um and he has his like talks and stuff and he talks about like what come during his like talks he'll talk about like what's happening in the zeitgeist uh make commentary on it and then he'll play games and stuff like he was going through dark souls he did a stream with another man I wish I remembered these names I'm very bad at this he did a stream with another uh streamer and they were playing it was one of those games where you try to climb to the top but you always fall down until oh I've seen that game where it looks fun yeah yeah it was pretty funny because um they did the whole like uh they streamed at the same time or it was like uh squad streaming that's right yeah um and the guy that he was playing with reminded us too much of a friend of ours so we just kept going oh no it's him even though it wasn't and the guy he was streaming with was a Filipino guy so he kept saying all this stuff and I was immediately like yep that's super Filipino there was one who's like man I don't know why people hate it on him I like my I like Michael Buble and I'm like that's really Filipino is it okay it's like because Michael Buble is a good singer and everyone knows that a common Filipino person loves singing so I was just like yeah he grew up in the culture so it's like stuff like that thanks for laughing Josh I I think my mom might be Filipino though I think I think a lot of moms might be Filipino well that is about the end of our show thank you Josh for being on we're all very excited about Deadly Lovers series please please uh I think everybody should get first ownership and watch it because it is very good uh and you could win me an Xbox Series X and then you can watch for for an indeterminate number of episodes because we don't know yeah and uh tell me more about how you think I'm the murderer Erin if nothing bad happens if nothing bad can happen to her then she has to do something bad you have to it's one or the other or maybe it's not I don't know no I pretend not to see it uh thank you Josh and uh yeah uh next up tomorrow we're gonna have a stays in with Caden on RTTV so look forward to that and bye everybody have a good week
