I love my honey. I love my ragtime girl Are you the wb frog because that's what I picked? No, that's not his name. His name is uh Oh, no, he's got a name. Let me let me quickly google hat frog Homestuck munchie. Oh, no, it's pepper. It's naga. Michigan j frog Michigan j frog. Yeah, uh, hmm. Okay. Is that real? Yeah, that's real. What is Michigan as a name, huh? I wonder if the j stands for anything. I'm gonna guess that it's jones because he was created by chuck jones, but that's pure speculation Wow, what a character. What a powerhouse Oh god Love for michigan j frog in this He's he's he's a maverick, you know, he's out there living his dream every single day And and who in their right mind would stand in his way michigan Michigan cursed with that forbidden name unfortunately, but other than that It's all it's all gravy for him Uh, anyway, it's it's 2018 guys. What what what wait? This is shut Fuck the the topic of his podcast. This is the michigan j frog podcast In a clip from a dvd special jones stated that he had come up with the name michigan frog during the 1970s And was inspired to add the j as a middle initial while being interviewed by a writer named j cox Jay cox. He was thinking cox would be a weird middle name. So now i'm in question now Is the does the j stand for j as in j cox? I mean probably like j a y just like homer simpson homer simpson's middle name is j a y Oh, dude, they're related somehow. They're related just like monkey d luffy and gold d roger Well, uh, pretty much the j the j is the destiny Imagine if the d it was just d ee after all that time Dude, michigan j frog is a special person. He's got the will of j indeed what if Straw hat land takes place in the same world as kirby in the distant future where king d d d's led uh Descendants have all, you know propagate and spread throughout the land to overthrow the kingdom of heaven started by the corrupt Wait, baby toe original founder is kirby. That's the last you'll freak But wait d d d is an earth elemental lord of the dance and he will see his empire toppled and and d d d Uh, in in order to make us offspring Fucked the year 2018. So, you know, that's back on topic now that it's legal now that it's legal in d D in in ohia where I live uh 16 is legal. So, uh, you know, just say in the uk 16 I didn't think of that joke in 2016, but you know, did you ever did you ever see that meme that's like, uh, It's you know, like it's like the shack like I uh, you know euphoria meme There's something like uh, uh, you know like, I don't know massachusetts age of consent 18 You know some midwest age of consent 16 japan age of consent like 14 or 12 And then I think it was like saudi arabia age of consent none and it's just like exploding eyes It was one of those, uh, middle eastern states. I I don't mean to insult the good people of saudi arabia if I'm incorrect But anyway, uh, here we are Uh, uh, talking middle eastern politics on today's episode of the pro crass Podcast, I want to I'm gonna say I'm gonna fucking be racist. I got beef to pick with saudi arabia Um, I strongly object to its people and our oil prices. They're searching, please No No, let me tell you why it's because I've met like I've I've met a couple of saudi arabians in my life And they've all been they've all been rich assholes because they have like government grants to like go abroad and be rich in another country Yeah So i'm sure not everyone is like that, but just the ones I've been like that Yeah, I think they have a literal aristocracy as I understand it in saudi arabia Yeah, I'm sure the ones I'm sure the ones you run into In america are mostly the rich ones that I like government connected or whatever Indeed I hear like like dubai though. I mean, that's that's the united arab emirate separatism. That's like a literal future Okay. Anyway, uh, it is 2018 guys and we're here to talk about our plans for 2018 starting the year off with some good old fashion racism It wouldn't be a pcp if we didn't have a little bit of that mixed in And speaking of oh don't say that don't say mixed here We'll have none of that. We'll have none of that. All right. Our first goal of 2018 is to uh to help our bro Richard Spencer start the ethno state clearly It's time. The time is upon us Uh, but but really our first goal is to define what even is 2018. What could this this creature be? So just for perspective, I went ahead and I we've got our friends the urban dictionary have a definition of 2017 for us Oh, you're gonna like this one fellow redditors Uh 2017 the struggle for humanity Embarrassing Okay, so that's what we that's what we've left behind. Okay. Here's what 20. All right. Here's one thing I just got to say this I don't remember 2017 being bad at all. I can't remember what but donald trump was president He was president at the end of 2016 wasn't he? Yeah only for a little only for a little bit. He was elected in 2016 He was inaugurated in january. Yeah, this is because 2017 has such highlights as the release of our favorite video game undertale And many other excellent animes I just I just I just am not Understanding the the like. Oh my god 2017. We survived like what? I'm not gonna have like all to do with the trump stuff. I'm pretty sure it was no 2016 like 2016 was a real Everybody died that was cool. That was a bad fucking died. That sucks wait this year. No, 2016. Yeah, he died. Yeah God, I can't believe it. It feels like it was 2016 like a week ago Yeah, exactly 2017 exactly not because we're closing we're closing it on 30 So our perception of time is beginning to speed up soon. It's gonna be I feel that decade Things are gonna be a week ago. Oh boy, and we're just gonna like Jesus christ I better start some like buddhist meditation or something It's a good idea. Uh, uh, so so here's our definition of 2018 that we'll be working off of uh for the rest of this I'm sure we will something. I hope won't be shit. Thank you fellow redditors Tip in my cap to you on my way in in this troper is a pain in Let's just go on and define 2018 2017 forever. I saw a comic by our good friend shen comics. And if I know anything 2018 is a uh, a very buff Uh, naked man who has a uh, jojo's inspired outfit on ready to beat the shit out of you Is that shen comics? Is that bike cuck? No, that's that's altered Altered the the worst. No, they're the same thing. I will turn to his shen comics. Yeah Okay, his handle. There you go. So yeah bike cuck Dude, he totally redeemed himself though He's definitely making some strides every now and then I see what he means Did you see how he memed on himself when net neutrality got repealed? It was fucking brilliant I think so, but I can't remember what he did. He did the exact same comic But it was like net neutrality got repealed I'm pretty sad about it But then again, maybe the people who repealed him are having then he just like pops out of a port He's like, no, fuck you and just like beats this shit out of himself like yeah, okay There's a good way to meme on yourself. Yeah, I remember appreciating that. I appreciated that, you know, I've been seeing I've been seeing um, oh, I've been seeing these comics on twitter lately They have some generic name and like they're just drawn as blobs and it's like the most generic sentiment god, um I think it's called web comic name Uh, yeah, it's web comic name.com. Okay, I get it. The latest like it's a parody of all those people who do nothing Yeah But at the same time it still manages to get like the same message across I don't It's like this latest one is my life has no meaning Maybe the meaning of my life is to make an offspring with a meaningful life And then the baby is like my life has no meaning and the parent is like, oh, no Yep. Yep. I I really hate that sentiment about I don't know Does anybody else feel similar? This is a sort of relevant or like goals for a new year or whatever I Whenever I see a parent who like defines their life by like raising their kid, right? It makes me real mad. Yeah Because it's like if everyone does that nothing new happens. It's just the same shit forever. And I'm I don't know Well, don't you find it weird that like parents would be like, I'm gonna raise my child, right? But then they raise them with the exact same like values and goals that they had which led them nowhere So it's just like you're just pigeonholing your child. I mean, I'm being as empty and vaffid as you are I've given up on the on the hope that like I'll be a miraculously way better parent than like my parents Like what are the odds that I'm gonna crack the fucking code and be like a magically perfect parent who makes the perfect kid Highly unlikely. No, if anyone could do it. It's me I'm a gambling man. I if I make a kid I'm gonna I'm gonna just go into it with the with the idea of like Making them into somebody I can have a conversation with that is not like God this fucking piece of shit. Uh, I'm not gonna This isn't the parents Impossible. Yeah, there's no there's no there's a generational divide. So from like, you know, like 13 to like 25 They're going to hate you what I mean, what I mean by that is is giving them like the the tools of like Figurings things out on their own So that they can be an interesting person without doing what I do or like knowing what I know I don't know how to explain this, but I don't I'm not gonna do it in 2018. That's for sure the best the best way to the best thing you can do for a kid Give a man a fish feed him for a day Teach a man to fish feed him for a lifetime teach a man to catfish get him economically secure for the remainder of his existence that's uh Relevant somehow I think uh, so what do you guys got for goals? You got any new year's resolutions any hot off the press kind of stuff? Um people have been doing that a lot people have been doing that a lot around here I don't know. I don't really trust them. I don't really trust them Like I mean, of course, I'm a gym guy So like every january the january joiners flood the gym and it's a nightmare every every workout guy goes That's like the worst time the january joiners and it's bullshit because they because they flake out They flake out. Yeah, because if you're just if you're just there because like Yeah, like you're not you're not gonna stick to it based on like, oh, I can't let down my new year's resolution That principle is what is what kind of turns me off of new year's resolutions in general I don't get me wrong any excuse to try to work on something Is is an opportunity that maybe this will be the time that you really stick to it And I'm all for that But like if your primary motivation is just to stick to your own desire to stick to your new year's resolution To me sounds like a rocky foundation, but maybe you can build on it You know what they should do They should they should have all the gyms in the world have like a like a four mile radius all around them And with like spikes on the roads that you can't drive over them Uh over the border and you have to run all the way to the gym because there's lines and shit So if you manage if you have like the the the tenacity to run all the way to the gym to do your workout Then you've proven yourself worthy to be in the gym That's like a pokemon gym because you got to go through the the gym leaders minions before you fight the gym leader Uh, you got you got a show that you can beat that diglet before you can fight against brock and his mighty onyx That sounds like a dick metaphor if I ever heard I don't know a dig you know diglet Onyx whatever point is I I have no resolutions though. I have been thinking about like fixing my diet forever That's that's one thing I'd really like to do this year Uh, like here's the thing about me everything that I should be doing. I'm already doing uh in terms of finances Economically because I recognize there's no point in waiting You just got to do it and don't be a pussy But one thing that I am not really doing perfectly is is eating exactly as I would like to for maximizing gains None of kidney beans and maximizing health not not quite enough kidney beans these days and not enough salads And too many carbs far too many carbs as everyone does in America Uh, yeah, I want I want to knock that shit off. So that's that's something I'm kind of keeping carbs. I hate carbs I I've came to a revelation recently. Yeah for the last Well, here's the thing. This is this is the catch 22 or horrible situation. I'm in with carbohydrates because like you I've been trying to improve my diet. So, um For the last like couple months from like I want to say August to Probably the end of october I was having migraines all the time like I have I've had chronic migraines since I was five years old But like they were really bad like so bad like I was like, I don't know if this is migraine Like it's so much worse. I went to the hospital like three times. There's nothing wrong with you Like, you know, like you're fucked up and I eventually figured out the reason the reason that I was Getting all these migraines was because I wasn't eating enough carbs So I was trying to lower my carb intake and because I wasn't having as many carbs that like made my headaches worse And then I looked it up and I guess things kind of happens people have like chronic migraines Like you have to like carb load to keep your headaches away. I'm like, whoa, I'm totally okay Is that because you're eating far less than the average person does or because there's something about you where you need More carbs, you know, I'm not sure. It's interesting because I wasn't I wasn't having like no carbs. I was just like Cutting down on it and that was enough to like make like something that was like I'd get like three or four times a month to be like three or four times a week And like made it impossible to function. So My own body is deciding to fuck over my resolution to eat better. So thanks. Thanks biology Where's genetic engineering or even better? Where's the robot bodies? We need the cyber brains now. All right That indeed indeed Um, okay. Well, does that translate any kind of resolution for this year? Any plans for that? Well, I want to try and find a better balance for that and I also want to start exercising a little bit I feel like if I go into if I if I turn 30 as a flabby fuck I'm just probably just going to kill myself on on my birthday. Just like can't can't let it happen. Can't let it happen It's been it's been too long like I can't Because the best best way to do that is set the date that you know Is the day that you're going to kill yourself and break up all the time from now to then into small achievable goals And so you can track your progress and even if you don't achieve all the way You'll have uh come a long way by then and I'll just if I don't get all the way I'll just like cut off an arm instead of a straight. Yeah Your your death will be proportional. Yeah consequences. I'll just I'll just like poison myself So I'll die in like a few years, you know Okay, okay, if I if I hit it if I make a million dollars by the time I'm 30 I'll if I don't make a million dollars by the time I'm 30 I'm gonna kill myself But if I make say 500,000 I'll just start smoking instead Yeah, yeah cut off a proportional amount of your life by engaging in bad activities Gabe were you saying something? No, I don't know what this thing is. I don't know what what we're doing. Are we just saying We're saying things were red goals for 2018. I mean right now we're talking about new year's resolution space Yeah, because let me talk about anything here because those are slightly different in that um, the they feel Even the word like it just feels like I'm not actually gonna do that, but I'm saying it Do I know why this is why new year's resolutions are stupid and why goals are good because of resolution You you're you're just like, oh, I resolved to do something. This is something I'd like to do It's not it's not committal enough a goal is when you're just like, okay I not only do I have something I've resolved to do But I Assumably have some sort of plan in place to get there and so I can make these smaller steps to accomplish it That's the difference. That's why goals are good and resolutions are bullshit because so many people are just like They have you have your resolution like the day of like, you know, like December 31st Like I'm gonna go to the gym tomorrow and then like that's as far as you planned out That's not gonna work dude. You got to have a system in place or you're fucking yourself over I just I can't respect someone who says Uh, I mean, I don't know it's theoretically perhaps I could but it seems like a big Bad mistake to be like yeah on january 1st I start going to the gym And it's like it's like the middle of december like if you really are committed you'll start today Or or maybe tomorrow like I don't know whatever but you'll start now. You won't wait until then That's you know, there's a way to fucking do it. That's a way to fucking do it I mean my my resolution or rather goal was I mentioned it in the last pcp The questions when we mentioned like plans and stuff Um, but we're gonna go more into it here I I mentioned that I was gonna make videos every week and stuff And the reason I was gonna start on january the first was because I had work That I couldn't like I had to get done and that I was stopping me from starting immediately So basically my goal was to finish what I had to finish by the 31st of december Which I actually on the last day of the year finished and I was like oh Now I now I can just celebrate for a bit and then I actually if january 1st I did work and I was working and I was working the second day in the third day and this whole first week Um my my plan was more my goals my my uh, yeah my plan For 2018 was to make a video every week and as of the first week I have done two videos and i'm starting the third after I finish recording this So it's going well And and and at the rate I am going I can imagine like one week I can do two videos and I have four videos per month basically So by june, I should have the whole fucking year fucking dumb Sick dog. Yeah, I mean that's great. Yeah, I mean of course If you are just like if you're busy accomplishing other goals That prevent you from starting until january 1st, you know, of course Immediately means as soon as it's feasibly possible not like indeed indeed you're drowning It's time to start working on that video, you know, if you're not starting right now trying to present yourself from drowning Like I'm pretty sure you're a terrible person drowning in in footwear though Well, you know got them. That's that's a rome. I'm not familiar with That's a level of existence. I can't fathom Ben you got any resolutions for 2018 Tell me them Uh, uh, I guess Well on a personal note, I guess my Overall the thing that I'm aiming to start doing that I wasn't doing previously in 2018 is start paying my student loans off They've been deferred. They've been glad to hear it dude. Yeah, they've been deferred forever And uh, that's bad. I made like a big payment on them like a couple years ago And uh, I'm pretty sure that a bunch of what I paid back then has like grown back to interest Yeah, very front not all of it. But yeah, it's very frustrating Um, and like I don't know I have been roasting you ben behind your back for years about these student loans Just so you know roasting you like a christmas goose you were Succulent succulents the word I'd use to describe you um Well, yeah, so I'm gonna do and like, you know, I'm I'm I'm uh, I'm not hemorrhaging money anymore Hey, like I once was so um, yeah, I can I can start doing that And uh, I'm sure that will be a smart and I won't regret it Our our dear departed papa would have been so pleased to hear this news Good, um, yes, I'm glad that he'll be happy and I'm glad that he's dead Uh, yeah, it's sick. Is he actually dead been make the same joke in the trucker? No, you ding dong That was his ghost. He drew a picture of his ghost Oh I just I don't know. I don't hear from your dad that much They're true. So therefore he must be dead A munchie, however, isn't close communication with everyone's dad and is uh keeping keeping tabs on all of them It's big. Uh, he's got the big map with all the red strings trying to triangulate locations at any given time Right. Anyway Uh, is that everyone has everyone said like I don't know. We we did like resolutions I do want to talk about like larger goals. Yeah goals goals are far more interesting. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Let's uh, I I don't know. I guess let's let's get into it Uh, Ben Ben just basically said one of his but but like what's what's your what's your big plan for 2018? What are you gonna be producing over the course of this year? What'll be on the other side? I have a few things um, my My stupid fun little comics that I do over on APS adventures Dot wordpress.com. What does that stand for again? Adobe photoshop adventures. Oh, yeah Yeah, uh, I I did one during a stream like I drew a whole comic and I was like, ah, that's fun I'll do it again. I did another one. It's not finished yet But like I want to do more of that but that's obviously time consuming and and you know, it's it's fun But it's like it's not really like a product that I can be like, yeah, I could turn this into a real thing So I kind of just well, I mean it doesn't look very good and I'm not that good drawing yet Just fucking print it as a zine Oh, what's that? It's a zine, dude. What's a zine? It's a zine, dude. It's it's it's like a cheap, uh, like fan magazine It's like a one-man show or thing. Yeah, you know like that 80s style zerox Yeah, I mean what what I aesthetic I mean last year I had this idea that I would make an album a book and Something maybe a comic and a baby this year. No, no I mean that is something, you know, not like making the baby but like getting the v-cards punched. That's that's something Yeah, oh, I'll give you a punch. All right. Just come over to my crib someday You'll get that v-card abused heavily Yes, but like what I want is I want to continue doing those comics to the point where I have so much of them That I can actually release a big old book of them like like like just like homestuck just like homestuck is in a funny book But it's not as good as like it's watching it looking at it online because there's so many flash pages and gifts Um, but I bought the homestuck book and I'm reading it. I'm like, this will be good to have one of these Hey, I've been wondering just about that book. I read ben has the first two homestuck books And I but I I read them, but I can't remember. I don't think no I don't think I have any homestuck books, but I have all the problem sleuth books Oh, maybe that's right. Yeah, yeah, those are good So like when with with the gifts with like the high superfast gifts of homestuck I'm imagining that what hussy does is on one page. He puts the first frame on the next page You push the second it's instructions are flip at extreme speed back and forth between these Not actually I mean it's it's a lot of the layout is kind of like terrible because you can't it can't accurately Show because like a lot of the stuff in homestuck is like it moves across the screen real fast But what is moving across the screen doesn't look like it's like drawn to be moving It's just a thing being dragged like really fast. So it's like it's great in motion It looks terrible like in What do you call them? Thumbnails? It's like with those animation super sleuths Do have do have a frame capture on like one like blurred Yes, man, or like exposed. This is a terrible anime, etc. Yeah, but um, yeah I want I want to draw a bunch of comics because those are more fun than trying to write a book I might do music as well. I don't know basically what I want to do is I want to get all Hippocrite stuff done was the breakout hit of 2017 Hillary was a pretty funny one But it's not that good to listen to and it was made in a day that whole album If I make like if I do like a month of like doing a song in a day that might be actually pretty great Yeah, yeah, so, you know I just I yeah, I just want to do Creative stuff that I like and in order to facilitate that I need to get Hippocrite stuff done Earlier so that I have months and months where I can just like hmm. Think about stuff and things Yeah, so yeah, it's it's it's my my plan is to be creative and facilitate the ability to be creative The noblest of goals Yeah, that's a good that's a good just a good overarching like life goal to have that informs everything else that you do That's basically my my life pattern for myself more or less. Yeah, yeah I'm sure you guys as well like every everything that I do every individual thing that I do is Done with the understanding that like this is a good idea if and only if it in some way contributes to like That more of my future life will be spent pursuing my own artistic endeavors Yeah, yeah, and I mean uh Artistic endeavors, sure, but I I'm always very conscious of Or just just my own endeavors like we're doing what I want to do Yeah, sure sure. I I'm just very conscious personally of I have a a baseline economic reality I need to meet I need to achieve that and once I'm over that then I have a lot more flexibility to do whatever I want Yeah, that's uh, that's how I approach it Yeah, there's really no more like Detailed, I mean, I guess I could go into some details of like some videos I plan to make if you want to But I don't know how how long I could talk about that for because it's just you maybe take one That you want to share if you do want to share any of them. Well, I don't mind sharing the ones It's it's basically I want to go over All the hypocrite videos that were like the first in a series like ratchet and clank and jack and dexter and and kingdom hearts And and stuff and I do the sequels to those so I would do g rpg on kingdom hearts too I would do a review of of uh of rayman 2 and ape escape 2 and ratchet clank 2 and jack and dexter 2 And it's just be like, uh, I'm better at videos now and uh, here's these popular games that everyone likes clicking on And you need to release all those on a tuesday Oh Whoa, that's a good idea. That's that's a fun gimmick. I might do that Excellent Um, yeah, all right. That's cool. I don't know. I'm I'm looking forward to it It's gonna be a good year It's gonna be a good year. I think for for for all of us Ben's Kickstarter is wrapping up and my pretty soon. It's not done yet. Oh god I want today. Okay by the since you bring it up. I just want to say that today This very day is the last day of my Kickstarter Oh, yeah When you the listener are listening to this Um, so go to my fucking twitter, uh, link link in the description We're fucking going for the final stretch goal Which is that I buy a fucking oculus rift and turn memes into reality Make the dream real Yes, make the dream real send me surfing down the vr super highway Ben, you know, if you want to sell that as like something actually meaningful You know, there's like a vr program for orchestra where you can draw in vr and like 3d So you can like walk around the drawing as you're drawing it and stuff Um, I have seen it. Uh, yeah, I mean if I get if I get I don't even know what I do with an oculus rift But I would you know, just post post photos on twitter with it and then mention map every time I mean, I owe it all to him man. I owe it. I owe it all to him. He sparks the the the uh The the the creative drive in you to get to the point where you could buy an oculus rift It's true. And they say capitalism doesn't work. Uh, yeah, uh, excellent excellent. So ben's gonna get an oculus rift That's his that's that's yeah, what I'm saying is that I can't wait for the rowdy fuckers cop killers episode Oh, my god, oh the oculus rift themed rowdy fuckers episode a five hours How could I how could I not have thought of that? Of course, of course. Oh, that's the capstone of the saga Oh my god, we got to get we got to get munchy one too. We got to get munchy one, too There's another stretch ball dude. We have vr adventures guys. Please get ben this oculus rift So this could be real please Uh, I mean the possibility. I mean this was just a fucking joke But now that we're talking about it the actual real world possibilities are just staggering And and uh all this corruption will have been true all along this is all part of ben's long game He's been playing the long con here. I'm always he's laughing He's joking. We all act like this is just spur of the moment, but no inside. There's a calculated psychopath We just we just made those statements And then we didn't see because we're on a podcast ben like that it was a freeze frame and it turned red like death though And he's like it's all according to plan. I didn't have to say anything about the benefits of the oculus rift They said it for me. So I'm totally in the clear. I don't look like the bad guy Dude when ben touches the oculus rift just like it does in all his memories come flooding back Oh Oh my god, he's gonna be the god of the vr world Yeah And munchies re-euk, right? Oh, yes With his little wings floating around only instead of eating apples. He eats a disgusting fast food food. Uh, and it's Oh, he's just whole pizzas Whole pizzas Incredible, um, you know that that that just gets me thinking uh the the wheels spinning in my head of like what we could do with that At a rad con at a rad con at a place with the procrastinators That's a sort of a goal that is not like individual to any one of us, but that's indeed that's something that could like begin to I mean, I don't know we don't have a big That's the 2018 goal for all of you the listeners to go to patreon.com slash the procrastinators Give generously and make it happen It's true that I want I want to meet up with my good boy baby friends and and suck everyone's dick That's what I want to do Indeed, I think uh, we're we're pretty firmly out of any kickstarter jail that we may have been in up to this point and and uh, I think that uh Yeah, man, the door's wide open and and of course not to mention, uh, you know Like digi's got plans to be moving sometime this year Things for me are looking way up in general in terms of just like my my my youtube success and just like my economic stability Just getting closer. I'm already above like technically a livable wage But it's it's lower than that. I'm comfortable like doing at the moment So I gotta I gotta keep working kind of keep grinding Earn a little bit more and then once I'm at that point my student loans. They're getting way down there, dude They're way down there and uh, they will those will these 100 percent be paid off in this year in this year without a question So that is very exciting for me. I will no longer be a negative financial boy. I will finally be positive And you'll finally be in the black Wait, what was the pause thing you just said is that like that is that that thing about like People who like to get aids and it's like sexy. Yeah, you're right. That means you know, you've got You've got the gift to give I've got the gift the gift. That's the one The gift. Yes, uh, well the gift is the bug. The two are one of the same Right God damn, uh degeneracy is really in a spiral right now, uh in 2018. It's the in thing it's the in thing to do The fact that it is the in thing to I mean, well, okay, I'm exaggerating a little bit, but uh, yeah What the fuck guys, uh, please stop But oh god Uh, uh, let me see what else am I doing? Uh, hey, I I got plans. I got some plans Uh, we Agua is proving to be a pretty strong success so far. It's it's it's the content that uh, I think I was more or less destined to do just some sort of regular content to force me to make stuff Just it's just like back in the t-bap days when I was forced to make an episode every week And it it forced me to get a little creative. Uh, it's been really good for me So I'm gonna I'm gonna keep doing that for forever for the next while And uh, in whichever comes first Indeed indeed and just do it. I don't know for me I'm pretty much staying the course and just like trying to like grow and everything's going very well for me So I'm just just doing what I'm doing that no surprises though There will be surprises in terms of content that people see for me in 2018 Especially if I am able to go full time And I'm finally set free to spend all my time working on content. Oh man, you guys don't even know I've been saying this forever the content that I work on every day That is is coming sometime soon when Uh, 2018 That is a good question. I don't know who knows when it's one piece Nate. We filmed it like 60 years ago Oh, shit, Ben was that I didn't even know that Ben. I got I got incredible footage that day You we certainly did the footage. I did Yeah, that's true. Ben held the camera. Ben held the camera and it was me Someday soon someday soon everybody look forward 2018 2018 that's something you can mark on your fucking calendar this year A promise the whole year mark the whole year on your calendar at some point Yeah, block out this whole space of time from january 1st to december 31st You're gonna want to have that time booked for me Uh, because I'm gonna be filling it Every orifice Just like your hero shadman every hole is a Goal You know, uh, I I respect shadman as a businessman and as a rebel and as an entrepreneur But uh, I his his art is I am growing a little bit out of favor with the art itself Well, what the fuck? Well, that's what he you were just telling me how he's your hero and your favorite person You aspire just because he's because he has the uh audacity of hope to quote my hero barack obama Or was that really clean? I can't remember. No, that was uh, you know He he is a literal Internationally wanted criminal as I understand it and he just doesn't give a fuck and he just keeps drawing lolliporn Why is he an internationally wanted criminal because he draws? I thought it was because he had a fucking scary skull They're cracking down on skulls in europe in a big way right now Uh, but yeah, he's just like he like if his identity was revealed Uh, he'd be real fucked and I just I don't know he just has a passion and he's uncompromising in his devotion to it And I really respect that That's all that's pretty neat honestly. He had super neat and he carved out his own space Yeah, he's he's a he's kind of a hero kind of a hero, but anyways All right, um, I don't know. That's that's what I'm doing. That's what I'm doing. What about you, uh, tom? Um, I have a lot of stuff going on in 2018. Hopefully I think the big thing for this year like macro goal is just like focus Uh, because last year I did a bunch of things and it was a clusterfuck and I hated it And it sucked So I just uh, I killed off one of my youtube channels. I was running two of them. So last week I I put the kibosh on rebel pixels because I it'd been like months No one had said anything no one responded to my emails and it was just a distraction at this point anyway because I The patreon never got any money. It was just like it was just It was a lot of time to make those videos and as informative and as helpful they were to thousands of people They didn't pay me anything. So fuck it Rest in peace rebel pixels. So that that went away and I'm just focusing on 3d this year. So Uh, my my old channel, which is not my new channel again. It's all about 3d. So I'm gonna do analysis videos on 3d Yeah, your berserk series is going along swimmingly as I saw. Yep. I'm going to work on today on a uh, A interlude on uh, land of the lustrous because no one will fucking shut up in the comments about what about land of the lustrous Everything you're saying Right. That's that's what that is. Yeah, right. So of course, I just downloaded that today. It's it's fucking amazing I watch it. It's great. But of course the the month after I start the series, you know Hoseki no kuni drops and like everyone's like, oh, well no anime 3d anime has always been amazing because this one show is great And we never should on it ever Guys berserk just happened. Let's not forget Well, the thing is like I have like clips from like dozens of 3d shows that all have like the same like kind of Weirdness to them and then like the next part is going to talk about 3d anime and video games and how that's kind of looks weird Sometimes and but this one show of course So I got I got to put the whole series proper on hold and be like, all right You peasants, you know, I watched some of Hoseki no kuni just in clips. I didn't think it was like perfectly It's still a little bit on candy valley, but but anyway, I'm sorry. I don't mean it's much It's much it's much better for sure. And I got some real laughs. There's there's some good stuff in there for sure It's it's fucking great. So I'm working on that series and then I'm also doing more animation Just like making 3d So the whole channel is going to be on making 3d and talking about it and just enjoying 3d as an art form There's one problem with your whole a business model here and it's that 3d pig disgusting Tom 2d waifu for life. You need to Figure your whole life, uh, you know, I'm just like like your hero shad man I'm a disgusting degenerate with a mission and I'm just sticking to it So respect my vision as you respect his I'll try I'll have to get some lollies in there and that's how I'll gain your that would help that would help Yeah, so I'm doing at least I think I'm gonna try and shoot for uh, three more animations Uh, short animations this year kind of like her that I did the end of last year I'm sure you've learned a lot in the process of making that first one, right? Yeah, there was yeah, uh, I hope the next one I'm doing is a lot simpler Uh, so I want to get the first one for this year done by the end of February Um, then the next one will be much more complicated And I want to try and end the year with like a full like music video, which would be like three minutes long And that's intense lots of crazy fucking choreography. So I'm probably gonna Uh, take an actual like online course on 3d animation. Watch out Monty. Ohm. There's another man looking to fill that grave Oh The only way I can live up to him is to clearly just kill myself Which might be the plan if I don't if I don't uh get swole by 30 I'll just have to like rest pick out a plot right next to him just be like where buddy's in the grave But yeah, that's uh, uh, also I'm gonna be making just like more just models in general I'll be I just did of my first live stream of the year Yesterday I'm going to do one every Friday this year. That's the plan unless like something really stupid happens Uh, and just do 3d on stream So I'll probably I'm going to actually make a 3d model of fos the main character of second oak That's going to be my next model like to get to get them clicks get them them them Patreon Do it Really though, why why not why not do the thing that's popular if you're just going to practice anyway It's certainly yeah, I mean that's kind of the idea behind it. So I'm going to do that Uh, and then in the background, I'm just going to keep writing the script for source loss, which is not dead It's just it went through a huge rewrite all last year and I finally figured out I gotta say when I saw that update video, I forget what it was titled But the one that was saying rebel pixels is dead I thought that it was going to be source or his lost is dead Like that's what I thought you were announcing, but I'm glad that it wasn't never it's going to survive for all time No, actually the story I just had like a huge change of heart with how I wanted to do it and it took all year to figure it out And I talked with like a couple of my comic friends going like what should I do for this? And then it finally clicked in like november. I'm like, oh Now now that's up and coming female politician who was going to lose to the to the evil race realist Male supremacist now she's going to shatter that glass ceiling Exactly to do with real life events. Excellent. Yeah. I look forward. Yeah I was really inspired by uh, what happened it let me figure out what's going to happen Like what if someone didn't pay any attention to u.s politics, but still read what happened Is there anyone who's like done that that'd be incredible. Yeah me Right all the me and you That's true. That's true. So I think that's pretty much it is just it's pretty full schedule Well, also the whole like moving out thing I have to move out this year So I don't know really what's going to go on to that. I'm either going to try and get like a small studio apartment or Live in a car. That'll be fun Hey, man, whichever feels right at the time. Yeah, Cincinnati. You get a decent apartment, you know, okay for 500 bucks a month That's that's it's pretty all right. I think so that's too horrible But then again if we're going to boston, I'm already like right outside of boston. So why don't I go all the way somewhere else? Yeah, that's I'm kind of waiting on on you and digi what you guys are doing and I'll kind of plan appropriately He's holding that for a hero ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, we'll see how that goes. Well Yeah, hey man, run your own shit though. Don't wait too long. I don't I don't want to you know Fuck over your your plans and whatnot if there's nothing in place by like april That's when I'm really going to start pulling a trigger because I'm I got like 18 thousand dollars right now in savings Hey, not bad. I'm gonna try and hit 20 and then I'm probably just gonna like leave my job Then because like I'm last. Yeah, it's fucking awful I haven't I worked six hours this week out of 40 because like there's no heat And it's been like negative degrees every night. So I'm just like, well, I don't want to die So I'm just not gonna go into work. I guess so my paycheck is gonna be abysmal, but um Yeah, but once that's done like my student loans I can pay with pcp money And then some so that's not a big deal All right, we're glad to hear it And if the pcp keeps growing that I won't need a job and then I can just live in a car without with with Oh good the ideal living situation. It's gonna be great You should do uh vlogs while driving I mean, that's a thing people do Didn't that guy who was it was that guy who announced that he was going to be homeless and vlog homeless for like a full year So it was like one of the one of the big reactor guys on youtube who's dead now or something I don't know it was something like that That sounds right to me. That sounds like that sounds like the name of a person who would do that Good old joey That's a real name. That's a real I know it's a real guy. I don't oh god I'm taking plot shots at him. Anyway. No joey salads is a real dude. He's actually pretty successful He's a real person guys. Uh, please don't laugh at his Ben they can't they can't um, it's not it's not acceptable I agree That name is not acceptable. No, it's uh, it's pretty pretty bad. It's pretty bad. I scoff frankly Oh, yeah, that's that's gonna be fun. We'll see how that goes. Hopefully it won't go too bad Hopefully man, hopefully patreon.com slash save me. Give me money so I can make this stuff happen faster So I'm gonna I'll add it. I'll add a lot of gold to give me an oculus rift You know, I'll get an HTC vibe and then we can have a battle. Let's start a rivalry going on. Yeah I'll have a mansion in VR. Let me tell you Well, just they'll be just like with dnd just like me and tom will just make opposing youtube videos I'll say why the oculus rift is great and tom will say why it's shit That would legitimately be hilarious and I would totally do that. Yeah. Yeah looking forward to more of that Uh, all right. Well, ben, did you want to talk more about your goals? Or did you? I don't know You said some stuff before but I have I have I have a couple art goals in mind. Um I want to Okay, so I'm working on vapors three right now. I'm hoping that gets done in not too too long maybe like Well, I don't want to put a number on it, but like yeah, not I'm not like six months or anything. Yeah, okay significantly less than that. Um After that, I'm not quite sure. I think I think I'm gonna probably do champion chapter two after vapors three Unless maybe I have a great idea for vapors four and I just want to bang out another one real quick Um, but I'm also gonna do another game like I'm I'm gonna I'm gonna start Champion chapter two with another like game section and I want to do that I also want to um I want to make a video. This is not like a big project. It's just a side thing that I want I want to make a video that's just me going through all my code in game maker and just explaining how the first game that I made Works kind of as a Kind of just as a little like vlog thing like that sounds cool. I'd like to watch that Yeah, yeah, just take a couple hours and like go through it and be like, uh, this how did I do this? I forget. Let me oh, yeah, Ben Ben Ben Ben a couple hours That game takes me like a couple minutes to beat. That doesn't make sense. What are you saying? That's ridiculous. Yeah, code is effortless, Ben. You know this. I know, but you know, I struggle I struggle with even the meagrest of tasks So, uh, so so yeah, um, I want to make that and I'm gonna So and I don't know what I'm gonna work on past Vapors three and champion chapter two and the game but while I'm doing all that I'm probably gonna do more kick starters. Like I'm gonna I'm gonna kick start Vapors two after at some point. Maybe I'll wait a little bit and then do that Um, I I guess if Vapors three is done by then maybe I'll kick start Vapors three Uh, uh, oh, and I know we we joked about it a while ago, but I'm like I'm actually unironically considering making dvds of the the nuzlocs like I got some dvd software and I'm like I've been putting together menus Hey, just because I think it's neat and um, because I just I would just want to own one even if nobody bought one I think it's cool. So, uh, yeah, maybe I want one Nobody none of us have like, uh set anything I know the the plebe and the weed plans on being set to disc But no one's actually pulled the trigger on that yet. So I would like to see that happen The thing about that is that looking into it. I am like It was really difficult to find like how to like make like a professionally set up dvd And I kind of wonder if anyone else even gave it any thought Um, I I don't know with regards to plebe and the weed Like my don't know the level of planning that went into the plebe and the weed, of course So, you know, I'm sure they've got to figure it out like my like my dvds. They're going to be an experience They're going to have menus. They're they're going to it's going to be like it have like a chapter selection It's going to be it's going to be the full work. You're going to have like a full dvd Like experience Isn't it like a like a special like adobe something or other adobe? Fucking show time When that helps you build dvd menus and things. Um, I don't know because I used it dvd architect that I got a free trial of Yeah, because because uh for for my like for my animation stuff um Since it's like You know you can submit it online and most people do or on usb But they want you as part of the course to figure out how to make a professional looking dvd of your animation to hand in And if you don't have that you don't get full marks And uh, it's not that difficult. I don't think I didn't do like special menus help me Uh, I guess talk details after the show. No, tell me right now well It's it's really I mean, I didn't do like a very elaborate menu or anything But it's basically you just that there's a software that there are softwares out And you just you you have to render your video files in like a dvd format Like hd stuff doesn't work It has to be like a deep because like dvds have a certain amount like eight gigabytes of space You have to make it the right sort of format so that it could all fit on well Well, you and you and dvd both said the thing you both said there's software out there I've been looking for software. I I'm trying to remember that there's an adobe thing There's a it's like it's a blue adobe. It's a blue adobe thing called something something adobe blu ray may uh Let me let me click on my keyboard and find it All right, I didn't do that bad, but do you know do you know what a light scribe dvd is? No, you should get a light scribe dvd. Okay, because this is how you make them super cool So you get a light scribe dvd burner and what that is it burns the dvd is normal But then the the top of the disc Is like I don't know how it works. It's like heat sensitive so the you can burn Directly a black and white image to the top of the disc so you don't put a sticker on there It's just like burned on top of the discs so you can make them look super professional Oh, fuck. Yeah, so like wait. I can just burn the image right onto it Yeah, you just take you take an image and it burns a black and white version of the picture right onto the disc It doesn't like peel off or anything. That is the greatest. Yeah, so that's what you need That is right there Yes. Yes. Yes. Um, it's it's called adobe on core adobe on core Okay Yeah, I don't think they have it on the cc Like a creative cloud thing. I think that the last one was cs6 But you know, you can you can acquire that program. Yeah, I have the means I can seize the means of how ominous how ominous By use license on ebay. What are you guys talking about? Yeah So so have we all gone through our plans now? I feel like we pretty much wound through them. I was about now Yeah, I mean I sort of yeah, yeah, I I sort of like skimmed over Like specifics and how I'm gonna make videos, but it's really just It's not much for me to say other than I'm gonna try to do them faster and still be good And that's you know, yeah, sure. I just uh, I mean since this is the pcp I mean, I was I wanted to say that this I think is definitely gonna be the year Assuming things go as they've been going or I personally am emancipated at last I I thought it was going to be the last couple of years But now now there is a clear trackable Path of progress where things are really going well and I could really see how Within the first half of this year things get to a place where it's uh, You know, it'll it'll make sense like I'll be able to finally break out and then consider doing youtube full time Which will free me up to explore youtube possibilities with the pcp And then and then we'll just see where that goes. Well speaking of that Um, yeah, yeah, do we have anything to say on the idea of pcp hq as a plan for 2018? That's that's what i'm talking about really when I we didn't really talk about pcp goals Do we have anything we plan on doing with the pcp this year? Oh, yeah about the show itself I don't know about you guys. I would like to bring in more guests where possible I've got a couple people kicking around we talked about a couple of before the show Uh, sure be nice. No Oh, yes. Oh, yes No, let's just say we're going to take a trip to the dark side everybody You know Hit there No, you don't understand how bad you don't understand how great an idea. I think that is it's it's uh, yeah Yeah, I know like make it happen. Why would we not want that? Well, okay, but we're just I mean that is one thing I've been thinking about and also like the the pcb episode that came out before this was like a totally different format The the interviews and stuff. I want to keep mixing up content like that. I enjoyed that. I thought that was fun I don't know. I want to mix things up this year and uh, we did it We did pretty much the exact same thing the entire year last year and there's been some new stuff the pcb animated That's like pretty much started this year more or less Those are great. I want to keep doing those in my people keep making them, you know, that's right I I think I want to to finally get off my my a s and and and get some PCP races Organized and happening. I did I read did write up like a like a guide for how it should be done So I can refer to it and show people what they have to do But I the the the pcb races are going to be a little different if the the the next one we do at least Yeah, where it's it's more about Uh, from the beginning like we we I'll run through the the basic idea People gather to record and then uh, we spin a wheel of what game they have to get and play and it'll be like a free game They can find or you know something Hopefully that they all have or can easily acquire and then they From that point have to go and play and speed run the game and get to whatever point it is And then get the footage back to me after like a set amount of time from the very beginning of the recording And uh, the it's going to be more of like a frantic like oh my god I'm downloading the game. It's taking too long and then you got to speedrun it. It's going to be very funny And yeah, I like it and yeah, and then we're going to go we're going to watch the footage and it's going to be It's going to be more of a structure that encourages people to To you know try to go really fast and to be really frantic and Unprepared and it also means that people don't have any sort of idea of You know Getting their time perfect by spent like you Nate. Yeah playing the thing a hundred times Every night to get it's been Yeah, but that's the fun of it Well, but this is they just won't get done if they take so much time You know like the reason the races have never been like it's just hard to get people To say, okay. I have time To practice this for 20 hours a day like nobody has that time But they want to have that time and it's just never going to happen unless it's more of a speed thing We can always choose to do certain races like that if we so choose in the future But uh, yeah, if we want to pump them out regularly something like this Well, I don't know about regularly maybe once only two months or something but like yeah, whatever. Yeah More than faster than it happened. I want that that to be a thing that happens Because those races were great like the first dark souls race was one of the best It's legendary. It's legendary. Everyone if you haven't watched it go watch the pcb dark souls race. It's incredible I'd say the pokemon race is equally legend. I don't know about that There were some uh, some highlights of that for sure Uh, yeah, it's certainly my favorite The the draw casts have been going strong. I've been happy to see that draw cast are great And I feel like they're underappreciated. I feel like there's some of the best content that comes out on this channel And I feel like they're under viewed But they're they're way fun And they get people and they get people like, you know drawn along with us and you know people tweet us, you know Like oh, here's here's how I did a challenge and I love that shit You know what we could do we could we could combine the idea of having guests and having draw casts We could maybe get like an art guest to to be on a draw cast That would be an interesting you thing. Sure. Sure. Yeah Andrew Leslie for example No, he's banned from the pcb. There will be no mention of his name his cursed name Uh, Picasso Give him an art tab. We need we need to get chris chan and on a draw cast. Oh Imagine it's time. Yeah. Yeah The possibilities are end full But there's a lot of them Yeah, man. Yeah, I don't know mix and stuff up try new things I'm excited to do more of that in the in the coming year And if you guys have any suggestions, you know, feel free to leave them in the comments, you know, I'll I'll check them out. I'll check them out Yeah, there you go. I don't know. All right. I feel like we're good. I feel like we've exhausted, uh, uh, everything We're fucking done Agreed, okay I guess I mean the only thing left that we didn't really talk about is PCphq and or a new radcon, but we don't know anything about it. Yeah, we just want it to happen We all still want it still Wait, I don't know like I remember I had said a while ago Like we should just set a date and figure it out guys just make yourself available for that date Because I can take off at one p.m I can take off a week from work and like be at a radcon sometime and I just need to know while in advance and I can do it Same I need I need to know quite a while in advance for plane ticket reasons. Sure. Sure But we got a week that that's on us. We got to figure that out We got to commit to that and make it happen though. Also the location was always an issue, but uh, right Yeah, I don't know. I mean you did like a like a mini radcon with in the boston thing I don't know whether that's like public knowledge like secret classified documents. No, not at all. Yeah. Yeah Yeah And ben and digi and munchie and and stuff you guys Were there in person in real life? Really a radcon. We were just hanging out in the same way Well, that's what a radcon should be. I just want to hang out for a bit I don't I have no interest in that. Well, I mean I do but I will not go if there's like just hanging out going on Just letting you know just letting you know. Well, I know but like Uh I I understand. Well, we have to put in some work to like make it happen to arrange where and how it's going to be So that's really on us Yeah, I think the biggest the biggest problem with it so far has just been that we don't have a place to do it anymore That really is that that was gigantic house It was great and victor as the cameraman was incredible and i'm so sad that we won't have in there unless we can I would like to try to get him there like if I don't if we do do a kickstarter I'm happy to try to give him some money, you know, yeah, if we could I mean just just ideas just ideas. So, uh Now hey, hey, here's an update folks now that uh, so much of the plebe and the weave has come out Would you have any problem with a pcp kickstarter for for, you know Radcon awakening or or perhaps we'd probably give it a new name. So it's no longer at radcon anymore. I don't know Uh, feel free to leave comments. I'll I'll read them. I'll check them out I'm gonna bet I mean, I'm imagining that the people who are interested in making that happen Would have been fine with it all along. I think you're probably right speaking. You're probably right. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm Well, that's that air in our dirty laundry and what 2018's over 2018 let's let's indeed, uh, uh, let's let's go to those questions guys By the way before we read a question. I want to read a comment So as you know everybody hashtag ask pcp on the twitter is the tag we every saturday when we record We put out a little thing. Yeah, okay. We got we got a friend here to address. Um our uh, Right. So, you know, I always tweet or we somebody tweets saturday, uh, you know to to remind everybody to send in questions and so Uh, as as you've seen we've taken less questions from there and more from the patron, uh discord, which I mean Is just we're we want to incentivize people to be patrons seems reasonable to me But a friend of ours here Add the one true henry had a comment about this that let's just take a moment to address. Um Here's here's a response to us asking for questions on twitter Why do you even ask twitter when you only take one question? If you just restrict it to patreon that will encourage more people to sign up You are just giving people a false sense of hope that their question will be read on the pod case Um Henry my dude, uh What the great henry yoshi? Yeah, dog. Um, he's back. He's back. Uh, listen dumbass You are a silly silly boy. Look look you just you're just not What is this that we like owe people to be on the like if we tweet that we able to only take Like you know if you watch the show that we take like a pity question It's a joke. We we address this at the time we take like one or two And you're like, oh you're giving people a false sense of hope their question will be read Well, maybe make it a good question and it'll be the one that we read So, uh, what exactly is your fucking grievance here? I don't like this point might be that, uh People who would want to ask a question instead of just giving us a dollar or whatever into getting in on it There instead, uh, just rolling a dice every week and hoping I think he's just mad that his question has never been asked except Except this one that could be a possibility which just encourages people to be annoying and title assholes because that now We are reading his question I am so sorry that we read one question from the twitter as opposed to zero like you suggest that we do I am so sorry that we continue to take questions without putting it behind any kind of paywall What a mistake. What a fuck up on our end really gotta fix that shit. Uh, I don't know Nate. You don't seem sorry What? How dare you question my integrity? Uh, Henry, I I humbly disagree with your point there. That's all i'm saying Uh, all right real question Yes, real questions Yeah, there's this one here Yeah, yeah, real question time. Yeah, we're away from that bullshit now. Okay, please. Yes, go Uh, from great because uh, we talked about this earlier. Grace. You says, uh, how can a plebe How does can a plebe stay motivated to go to the gym regularly? I'm attempting it and want wise words to keep me inspired So i'm assuming he had a new use resolution now. He's going to the gym Ah, see how you do it, Nate the problem there is a fundamental question of motivation Um, uh, there's a lot of picking things people do wrong when they're trying to keep themselves motivated to go to work out and stuff But like it sounds like your core like your impetus to go Is your fact that you made a resolution? Well, he didn't say that. I'm just assuming i'm inferring. I'm inferring here So I admit I don't I can't read your mind. I can't tell everything But you're you're you're going because you made a resolution and like you definitely want it on some level But you don't want it that bad. Do you you're not willing to sacrifice? You know the the the effort that it takes to go are you it's really this resolution That's the binding contract keeping you going and like just no no insult But that's no basis to like keep you going long term and stay, you know exercising and stuff You have to the only way to make this work is you have to I would say a Like actually enjoy the process itself of working out like when I work out it's it it hurts You know, it's it's tiring. It's it's exhausting But afterward just think about that glow you get afterward. How great you feel I feel that every time that's that that is the specific motivating factor that keeps me going And then of course in my mind, I have the like long-term thoughts Ah, yes, this will guide me on the physical path, you know that I want to get too long term So you got to have a short term Humans are dumb and we think with our stupid stupid brains about like the here and now And we prioritize that so often over the long term You have to know that about yourself and trick your own brain into doing what you Intellectually wanted to do by by making yourself focus on the short term benefits like that like that pleasurable feeling Right after you've worked out and how and how like good you'll feel Knowing you worked out as opposed to how shitty you'll feel knowing that you were supposed to work out today And you flaked or shit like that that's I think that's the long term more sustainable way Also set yourself like reasonable actionable goals, but that's that's a whole other story Yeah, that's my thoughts My thoughts is uh, don't go to the gym. Just run around just run around and pick up rocks. It's the same thing Yeah, yeah, pretty much the same thing A good uh, I hear here's a question everybody. Uh, this is actually from the twitter from at lobo Oh, I know No, no, no that guy has deleted the twitter that you know what you're right. I'm sorry lobotonist I'm sorry. Uh, henry has said that we're not allowed to take questions from the twitter So, you know, I don't want to give anybody false as a hope. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, but henry has forbidden Uh, all right, please go on give It's such a wrathful god I know Uh, I'll go look at some of these Uh, here's one, uh, tom sieg asks, uh, which pcp member has the best fan base? And I got to say, uh, monkey jones, obviously Yeah, for sure for sure No argument here But aside from him, um Best fan base, I I mean, I would literally argue that it is mine. I would argue that it is mine. Um Because just because they suck your dick. No, but they it's well, okay They they really do suck my dick and I don't actually like necessarily respect them for that Uh, because you know like they look like anyone's dick who they like, you know, like the jake paul people suck You know, whatever. Um, but it's I they seem quite open to the kind of intellectual discussion that I'm usually talking about And I find them to be very reasonable and I don't know Maybe this is a projection of my own Reasonableness like when people come at me with bullshit on like my twitter. I respond just like I'm like, hey dude What's the problem? I like how they approach me and they're reasonable and all this shit right after I just shit on a random twitter guy for daring to question our decisions Well, I that's like a pcp guy as opposed to a best guy. I guess I don't know I don't know, but I mean he deserves it because he was talking. Well, you you were just saying that like I like how they kind of like embody my ideals of like being reasonable and open to discussion Don't mind me as I just shit on henry Well, if you'll notice if you'll notice at the end of my shitting on him I ended it with a with my actual point of like I humbly disagree, which is honestly how I really feel about it So I'm meman. I'm meman a dream and the people understand that I hope Uh, I don't know Me I have like an I think because like it's it's it's weird to say that it's not my own fan base I think is the best fan base But I I obviously do love my fans. They're cute and they're great and cute and I love them I want to give them a big old hug, but um I think munchies fans like the the people who understand and appreciate munchie are probably my favorite people like those people a lot Yeah, because they get they get it, you know, they they're cool You're right. I mean, I'm I'm a pretty big fan of my people. They're all just a bunch of real nice boys I've taken notice of the the the ben and jackie wholesome fan base Um, there seems to be a strong community They're just a bunch of swell guys that hang out in our discord and just are like great fast friends with each other and like Sometimes I get emotional about it lol I think it's too. It's too wholesome for me. It it it it's it's making my brain turn It to to to give give there's a certain number of uh, of uh, what is it? npm You have to reach a certain ratio of npm for give to be happy in a community Which is 9 11s per minute. There has to be a certain ratio In order for him to feel not even that untrue because I like I like my edgy boys. I like people being Uh Rourcus and edgy and then also being like real and and nice All all I'm all I'm saying is just yesterday alex s and uh paradigm and uh fill uh draw fill draw Um, just put just they just made a song They just made a song about how much they love the discord and how much they love our streams and I got a little A little choked up. That's nice. Yeah, uh, I I have uh, uh a discord as well My patreon discord and I've had some great talks in there Specifically with this one guy denali uh about like fitness He's like a he's like a who's he was like a competitive weightlifter or something And he was just such a sweetheart who gave me some real great advice and and uh gave me the info to start the the routine that I'm on right now So shout out to that guy and uh just everybody and there's a real nice guy Especially shout out to me meet tion or midian mission In the in like a 10 dollar patron in the 10 dollar chat where we just talk about one piece All the time this person read all of one piece on my suggestion and is now caught up And now we're talking about it and it's extremely wholesome and I love it Hot shit. Yeah, I I'm a bunch of people have like read all of one piece now because yeah, of course He's watched every episode of the potty cast Except crazy, right crazy. It's good stuff Oh, yeah, potty cast got a patron I don't want to plug too many extra things. This podcast pirates. I think that the description is like like bloated with so many links Nobody's going to click on any of them Except for my Kickstarter. Give me that oculus rift. It's the last day guys. It's the last fucking day 10 p.m EST tonight is when it all comes crashing down. Wow, that'll be about Nine hours from when you hear this or is it 10 whatever something like that eight eight hours if you get it right when it comes out If you're really on top of your shit Oh, I was see I was including that hour Difference if they listen to it right when it comes out because it's been an hour. Oh, oh, oh, oh, right Yes, because we're an hour. That's that's thinking ahead That's the best guy ever for you. He's always 10 steps ahead Um, all right, I got one we've got one more question here Nice nice light question to end the the show Haid asks what would you do if your son turned out with heavy autism? Oh, no, I get my gun No, oh god, I think this question haunts me literally every day Uh, I like am I gonna say that I'm gonna be like thrilled with the situation Well, no one will be absolutely not Uh, oh that would but it's like also the kind of the most evil thing you can do say like that. You don't hear you're not happy with your kid Oh, it's fucked up. Well, I think it's not. Um, I don't think it's like a bad Showing of like a bad person that you don't like having to deal with a child that is going to be like You know for sure will be um The whole life their whole life. Yeah, I mean, you know, it's not like autistic people can't work. They do get jobs Um and stuff, but like it's it's more difficult. It is more difficult as a parent to do that Let's just go go grab grab his son in his arms Look him straight in the eyes Take him up to the cliff of sparta and just cast him off and be like Utilitarianism compels me I'm trying again with another one. Oh, it's fucked up I don't I don't ever worry about this because I'm never going to have a son or a daughter because it's ridiculous Yeah, okay. All right Fair understood understood But here's what I would really do is I would really try to analyze what my kid like check for diseases You know, I don't know how much you can predict autism like in the womb But seriously, I would if I have a kid that's that's that's brewing in a belly I will try to find out every disease so that I can abort it If things are going wrong and just try again because I don't consider it a human being worthy of moral consideration Not even a little bit until it's like one year old So, uh, yeah, that's what I would do I mean, I'm not against abortion, but that the the idea that you would like You know, you would think about that a lot before I mean, yeah, of course, what's wrong with that? I guess I don't think that's because like you're you're making a commitment of time and effort when having a child and to be thrown a curveball like that and expect that like your initial time and Investment and like your commitment that you made is still valid when they're throwing that huge thing in there I don't think that's necessarily true You know, I'm taking the steps so that I don't have so that I'm just like it's so I there is no problem I'm addressing it before it becomes a moral question because an embryo is not a human being so there's nothing I don't really see the problem Well, it's like, I mean, all right. All right. Here's my thoughts on the matter like, okay Of course, this is a this is a there's a spectrum here the autism spectrum specifically Like of course, this is a shade of gray but like You get you get far enough down on the spectrum like you get to the point where they're like Don't even really like like interact on like a human level anymore And like I kind of feel like the closer you get to that spectrum. But yeah, like like they they're they become less and less like Worthy of consideration on like a human level. Yes, it's of course It's just I think the the thing that none of us know for sure is whether you can tell in the womb Quite how autistic a child is going to be. Well, that's fair. That is fair. I don't think I don't know if there's any way to test Yeah, I don't think you can yeah, because like magically know we could do something But I think practically speaking you're probably right. I think I think this is why we need genetic engineering All right, we can fix all this. I agree. I literally have the genome We fix all that just fix all that in post, you know, exactly So Yeah, we need irl editing tools for human beings We need we need to invent a robot devoo to do it Dude, imagine how sick that's gonna be when you just fucking go you do the deed and then you go to the hospital And you just do get the creator wrestler Ui and you can just map it out exactly how you want Hell yeah, hell yeah Um, I want him to have shoulders that are 10 feet Yes Just like my world of warcraft characters. Yeah Uh, hey Okay, I've got one last question here that is the most important and then we can wrap up It's uh chirp skays moving castle asks How does the rest of the pcb work with best guy ever without being super jealous for not being the best? That's very good reason Because the best is subjective The best is a subjective term and there's nothing that Nate there's no work Nate does that I actually even want to do To give a serious answer Well, hey, that's probably why you don't do it, you know, we're all free agents out here in the world You're doing our own thing. I'm I'm gonna say I'm gonna say how does the rest of the pcp work with the best guy ever? The truth is uh, we don't we don't work Oh, which is actually uh, which is actually uh, uh a compliment to you Mr. Nate best man You keep the ship running very nicely and I'm glad you do How nice of you to say you get all you get all the uh the all the stuff in order so that I don't have to think about anything That's exactly. Yeah, I think a lot about how I want to make everything easy for all you guys and for like my patrons Uh, so I always want to do things that I can do so that people will continue to want to work with me at their own Volition because that's that's that's that actually kind of answers the other question too because Nate You found a way to weaponize your autism to make all this stuff work. And so you can pass that on to your son Yeah, you're not wrong Vincent will inherit the world that I give him and charlotte's will get uh, the scraps The way the way god intended indeed All right. Well, I guess we're done. Uh, uh, yeah, thanks for the questions everybody Uh, thanks for all those wonderful questions using hashtag ask pcp on the twitter. Oh, that was a good time Uh, thanks for pledging everybody in the patron discord. We read most of those were from there If you just pledge one dollar you get access to the patron lounge and you get all that stuff Pledge five dollars to the patreon and you get all 10 of our bonus episodes that are out right now Unbelievable absolutely decadent and uh, that's that we got some merch you want to buy some pcb merch a red bubble links down below um I think that's oh and of course tom's uh the links we got the the the podcast on itunes and google play And of course ben's kickstarter last day Oculus rift Guys, maybe maybe the even higher pledge could or a goal could be to get munchie a oculus rift for the you know what?
