music how you doing and Jason and James Clark hello everybody yeah I know time sounds are difficult I actually thought about doing this since this is an unscheduled live stream I thought about doing it at a different time maybe I could catch some different folks but but I just didn't work out I had other things I had to do so it ended up being I would like to do a live stream that's at you know a different hour so that some other people can make it it's hard to it's hard to find the time it's hard to schedule thing especially being at the end of the year I'm not only am I doing holiday stuff I'm trying to get started working on the first review of 2019 so that'll be a big one hello Evie GMZ Javier Gonzalez hello how do you do and thanks for showing up on short notice I know you guys some of you guys are getting by me without me saying hi but I hate to miss you but in the chat I'm trying to keep up but hello everybody hello everybody all right and John John all right nice to see you okay so hey why don't I start out by showing you some of the stuff that JJ of JJ's toy room sent me from Dallas vintage toys on on or just before Christmas I got a box of stuff and I didn't know who was from so I didn't know who to thank for it but it's JJ apparently that I have to thank for it normally I would save this for a regular monthly unboxing video but I already did the unboxing video for December I didn't think I would get was gonna get anything else but here it is so I don't want to wait you know a month to show you this stuff so I'm gonna show it to you now yeah Rowdy dealing with the holiday depression I can relate to that so my sympathies to anyone who is coincidence that I'm sitting next to the bar is it could it possibly be a coincidence that I am with reach of alcohol in both directions I got alcohol over there now call there it actually is totally a coincidence I haven't been drinking at all I've been drinking you've been drinking so yeah let me show you this stuff I'm gonna show you this stuff that JJ sent me because it's really cool and I'm also going to plug apparently Dallas vintage toys does a live podcast every Thursday morning at 9 a.m. central US central time and I am going to drop a link for it right here in the chat for anyone who wants to check out Val Dallas vintage toys and Dallas vintage toys is fairly well known probably a lot of you guys have heard of them but if you want to check out their live weekly podcast on Thursday mornings drop the link in the in the chat so you can do that so hey all right now check this out check this out I'm not sure what order I should show this stuff in I'll show you the funniest thing first okay he sent me toothpaste it's toothpaste it's like unopened boxes of GI Joe toothpaste and it has like it has recoil on it so I guess this would be what circa 1989 ish so this I thought was amusing and I have not opened these I probably won't open them but yes I am very curious about what this what 29 year old toothpaste would look like I'm really curious I absolutely do want to open it up and just just see what what the ages will do to toothpaste tube I don't know you know I'll let that I'll let you wonder about it but I think I'll I won't open them I'll just I'll just leave them as they are so that was that was interesting also included in the package hello Beta Ray Bob we're doing well thank you and also included was this miniature die cast Mobat tank you may have known that some of the early Joe vehicles were reissued in you know die cast form and the Mobat got that treatment I really like this because look the details the details are a very faithful copy of the details on the full-size Mobat tank it's even got the tow hook back there it has the top gun that has about the same range of motion as the full-size toy does it's got the main turret that has the same range of motion as the full-size toy it has the the cannon elevates the cannon is actually plastic I think yeah there are a few plastic pieces on it but the cannon elevates with about the same range of motion as the full-size toy but but it's tiny it's a tiny Mobat it's a baby Mobat yeah check that out so this is cool I didn't actually have any of these and it's kind of easy one it's cool to see how well they did miniaturizing it I mean sit this set this next to a full-size Mobat and you will see a lot of the same details on this miniature it's very impressive it's really cool okay let's move on let's move on the next thing I wanted to show that was sent is the live the adventure game now 3d Joe's pointed out something interesting about three the live the adventure game okay the live the adventure game has something very interesting on it and I'll pull out the game board so you can see it okay all right this is the game board and on the game board let me find it right there along with all these other pictures of you know Joe and Cobra forces characters right there see all right right there you see Zirana notice anything different about Zirana this artwork appears to be prototype artwork not the actual card art that made it to the the figure the carded figure you can see she does not have the forearm armor or the I mean the shoulder armor she has a tattoo instead she's showing off a little bit more skin and yeah and some skin on the leg so yeah so this is really interesting because that you would expect and in fact on a lot of these others they just copy the card art but that's that is not the original Zirana card art that is different and it's different in a way that is a bit racier and shows off a bit more skin than the production card art did Max reviews ghost music says it's a little fuzzy is she topless yes she is so that is something that is interesting about this game that I have to give credit because I had noticed that before and that was pointed out by 3d Joes so the next thing also has a peculiar origin carrying case and a lot of these these are actually really good for storing figures so I'm really happy to have this so yeah and it does have let's see it open it has both of the tray inserts but hey while we're at it take a look at this artwork all right take a look at this artwork see that who is that guy supposed to be who's yellow shirt huh and I've been staring at it and trying to think of who that's supposed to be I mean is it supposed to be Hawk it don't look like Hawk it's just it's just a it's like it's just a generic dude in a yellow shirt hey David yeah this is I want hate wonder if like yellow shirts are GI Joe's equivalent to red shirts and this guy he's just he's dead you know he's the guy that'll they'll die in the mission so yeah this is this is really cool and I was I have a fun time staring at this artwork I mean there are other peculiarities to like like gun ho apparently got his tattoo removed and over here now you know a lot of those 82 Joe's kind of all looked alike so this could be breaker on the motorcycle or it could be grunt the motorcycle don't quite look right to a very interesting interpretation of Rikondo anyway this the artwork is kind of amusing and I had a fun time kind of staring at it and seeing this artist of GI Joe and you know this was produced by Tara toy corp and I mean obviously they like yeah that's close enough close enough ship them out so thanks for that now all right next cool thing this is the the the final thing that was in the box and it was a really cool thing okay also included was this now this is cool this is a pre-production piece this is a test shot and I don't I don't have any pre-production pieces it's the first pre-production piece I've ever gotten I've got to show this to you guys and I am gonna pop it out of the protect protective case because in addition to having the test shot in a bubble by the way this is it looks like Mirage who was a mega marine from 1993 and as you can see how they it's uncolored plastic that's all it is it's just uncolored plastic no paint on it's nothing like that now Mirage was originally issued in 1993 as part of mega marines but included in that is this post slip which looks like it was cut off of the envelope that this was originally shipped in and this has a looks like a post mark along with a bunch of stamps anybody a stamp collector it has a post mark of looks like 2004 and there was a reissue of Mirage in 2005 so this looks like it's the 2004 test shot for the 2005 release of of Mirage Carl very Christmas and happy New Year Carl and man of action how you doing so yeah this is really cool and this is really interesting this is just a little piece of history here that and I really dig this stuff I really dig this stuff this is so cool so yeah upside down again a test shot look appears to be 2004 of Mirage that's cool and I do wanted to mention again Dallas vintage toys they do a live podcast every Thursday morning at 9 30 a.m. US Central Time so David I should open up a GI Joe Museum I would love to David that would at least give me more room I'm running out of space here so that would at least give me more room that would be a good excuse also to get more stuff I'd love to get more stuff so thank you thank you for that and everybody make sure you check out Dallas vintage toys yeah I think everybody's especially in anyone who's collected for any length of time probably knows about Dallas vintage toys so you know it's a shop that's pretty familiar to folks I keep promising to get down to Dallas to visit the place in person and I talked to Susan about it again today reminding her that we really you know it's been a long time since we've taken you know a weekend trip to Dallas we should do it sometime we've been wanting to get to get away for a while get out of town for a while hey Kurt road trip finally made it to a live stream welcome welcome Kurt no no Bob not drinking not drinking why why do you ask I'm gonna do the lie the or the the regular unboxing videos once a month like I used to do I'm not gonna only do the unboxings on the live stream but it's for me to not show you guys this stuff I I just want to show you everything that I get immediately because I'm so excited so all right one more thing one more thing one more thing oh hey Byron Joe motion videos that you choose here hello Byron sorry to spring it on you Byron I didn't I didn't plan this out I didn't announce it but I'm glad you were able to show up okay all right one more thing to show you and then we got to talk about this snake eyes movie alright there's some new information about the snake eyes movie we need to talk about it okay but first and in these two beautiful hot pink bags I got gifts from Jeff Adams some of you may remember Jeff Adams Jeff Adams has been a friend of the show for a very long time and a friend of mine for a long time he's a really cool guy and he he did a podcast about Star Trek the next generation for ran for a long time and you know he's just a great guy well he sent something to me for Christmas and I thought you guys might like it because at some point I may do either a review or a live viewing it he sent to me volumes one and two of renegades now many of you may remember renegades when it was you know on TV it was talked about quite a bit in the community I did not have the the DVDs so so yeah so now I can actually watch the whole thing and I can give you my opinion about the whole thing and I can maybe do like a live viewing of it so thank you very much Jeff for that and also Jeff thanks for being a cool guy Jeff really is a cool guy if you ever have a chance to interact with him he's just been really nice and a nice person to bounce ideas off of much appreciated much appreciated yeah I'm a Bader Ray Bob I do understand it's sort of like a cross between GI Joe and the A team that is like the main description you always hear about it so so there you go that's the stuff that I got and my apologies for doing that in the live stream rather than you know in a regular full unboxing video I'm gonna do those I'm gonna do those but that would have been like a month from now and I didn't want to wait that long to show you all this so yeah X Ferris 24 X and Ferris 24 says greetings from Argentina hello Argentina from the United States did roadblock wrap on renegades I don't know but I'm gonna find out so that's all the stuff that I got but I want to take this opportunity to turn our attention to the snake eyes movie let's there there is a excuse me a synopsis of the snake eyes movie that's floating around not snarl what's my favorite skinny puppy album it's hard to choose but I remember listening to too dark park a lot but it's too hard for me to choose which one's my favorite so let's talk about snake eyes okay the the bumblebee movie is out it's got very good reviews seems to be doing quite well at the box office I saw the movie I thought bumblebee was really good it's a great improvement on the Michael Bay Transformers movies it's a movie that it's certainly not perfect but few movies are perfect but the bumblebee movie the bumblebee movie is was a huge step in the right direction for a lot of reasons I and so we're I guess the expectation is that they will do something similar with the snake eyes movie oh hey Kurt road trip sends a super chat of $1.99 thank you Kurt glad you made it and very much appreciated thank you thank you so they obviously they're not gonna copy the story and the tone of the bumblebee movie but the hope is that they'll put a lot of effort into the snake eyes movie and make it something that's actually you know is get some you know critical acclaim something that general audiences will appreciate something that'll get some buzz outside of just the hardcore fandom because the hardcore fans they're either gonna like it or they're or not but there aren't I mean to make money you gotta you gotta get more than just the people that are already fans you gotta appeal to more than that so so that's the hope but there is a synopsis for the snake eyes movie that's floating around on the internet and you never know if it's actually gonna turn out this way or not but I thought I would go over this with you I thought I would read it and see what you guys think of it I think there are some good and bad points what's that Kurt drinking game every time anyone donates a super chat hoodie takes a sip okay that's a good drinking that's pretty good drinking game I don't have any glasses here hang on yeah hold on time out time out talk amongst yourselves I'll be right back and I'm back and that's only fair hey did Eric airman just send a hundred bucks is that just look if you guys are gonna start sending hundred dollar bills I'm gonna step away from the camera more often I want to give you guys an opportunity Eric thank you I don't know quite what to say about that but holy cow that means I gotta take two drinks right two sips look this this wasn't my idea not my idea okay that's one yeah please don't kill me that's two all right now if I have to keep drinking that will make it a whole lot harder for me to read this synopsis so I'm gonna read this okay okay all right okay cool cool cool all right now Kurt all right hold on I want a good sip one more sip whoa okay all right okay guys okay let me read this synopsis we got to talk about snake eyes movie the the fate of the world could depend on our opinions of the snake eyes movie so anyway Eric says don't overdo the booze I won't I promise in fact once we're done here I'm done I had not planned to drink anything tonight except somebody had a funny idea and hey you know this that's my weakness somebody has a funny idea and I just have to run with it so anyway okay let me read this okay let me read this let me read this okay so this is from an article from that hashtag show calm Joe fan 82 recently did a I guess a live stream discussing this so you know definitely check out Joe fan 82's video about it Kurt's wife is laughing thanks glad I'm I'm glad I'm here for your entertainment and amusement okay let me read this to you come on time out I'm out I gotta read so here's what it says let me find the beginning of it it says we meet this new younger snake eyes it'll be as a street fighter in Peru driven by the desire to avenge the death of his father snake eyes is apparently a man on the move until he ends up in Japan where he and his best friend Tommy aka storm shadow will begin their training with the Arashikage clan the film will be I'm sorry the film will see at least three of the clans legendary masters as they train snake eyes and storm shadow as hard master soft master and blind master I do like that they're gonna have the hard master soft master and blind master in the movie that's cool where were I lost my place here we go also present at the Arashikage compound is the film's female lead Akita in comic continuity junk Junco Akita see it's already affecting me was an apprentice and lover of storm shadow here she is the head of security and will be a love interest for snake eyes okay of course it's a G.I. Joe movie Cobra must somehow be present and in this instance in a manifest in what appears to be a character created for the film kenta kenta is revealed to okay it's a typo in the article revealed to be storm shadows brother who has long since left his family the Arashikage and joined with a rival ninja clan the current curry yummy it is kenta who attempts to lure snake eyes away from the Arashikage and into a terrorist plot being devised by Cobra and that's all they will do without delving into a spoiler territory okay Kurt okay Kurt okay so that was the synopsis of at least what's been revealed so far of the upcoming snake eyes movie so what do you think Max Rimos goes to music music says not set in the 80s yeah I don't think it is but I'm not sure I mean it doesn't say that it's not set in the 80s which means it could be surprising thank you Kurt so it doesn't it I guess it could still be set in the 80s and I know Steven from G.I. Joe Berg would really like it to be the next messed up one this is gonna be my most profitable live stream ever you just all want to see me fall over right you just you want to see me fall out of this chair it's like that scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark I gotta chug it back and like flip it over and slam it on the table so yeah some thoughts about this this storyline I mean it has some good points but am I buzzing yet I'm getting there it has some good friends they should start out as friends to me it's a more interesting story to explain how two friends turned out to be enemies how does that transition happen so that's interesting you have a couple new characters I understand Akita does come from at least one of the comic book continuities but kenta is new Kurt I love you man so so you got a new character in kenta that's apparently going to sort of draw snake eyes toward Cobra how he will eventually make make the transition to G.I. Joe I don't know we'll have to see one thing that I okay a couple things that I'm concerned about first of all we do lose snake eyes his history as a soldier and snake eyes as a soldier is as important as snake eyes as a ninja and snake eyes as a soldier gives him a path to G.I. Joe because it was through his war buddy stalker that he joined the G.I. Joe team so if you don't have that then you'll have to come up with some other way to connect to this ninja to G.I. Joe another thing is I'm I don't know if I love the idea of snake eyes wanting to avenge the death of his father that just doesn't sound very snake eyes ish to me I feel like snake eyes is a tragic character not necessarily someone bent on revenge somebody that somebody that you should have a lot of sympathy for because his life really is tragic so are they I don't know that it'll be I don't know this is the answer I don't know if it's going to be a familiar snake eyes to us and it's okay if it isn't you know really the ultimate test is whether a new audience will enjoy it and accept it and that's really where the test lies I don't know that I will ever get the kind of G.I. Joe movie that I would love to see fine you know I have my G.I. Joe they can't take my G.I. Joe away from me I'll always have that thank you Kurt so so they can't take anything from me I got what I have I have my G.I. Joe I'll always have my G.I. Joe so if they make a movie that I don't like then it doesn't really take anything away from me I would love to see a good G.I. Joe movie but I guess I mean really the measure of whether it's a good G.I. Joe movie is does the audience like it does the audience like it and the audience includes more than just me right so what I would like to see is a G.I. Joe movie that gets the kids talking about G.I. Joe again that gets you know the kids at the lunchroom you know on the lunch break at school talking about G.I. Joe that would be really cool that's what I would like to see and if this snake eyes movie gets that started that is fine even if it doesn't turn out to be exactly the movie that I would want I'll take it if the kids like it so we will see but yeah you with this storyline and again you don't know if this is true or not you know it's on the internet you can't always necessarily trust it but but with this you you do lose a few elements of snake eyes you add a few other elements but you lose some that we're kind of familiar with and that seem to make up who snake eyes is so we'll see we'll see it's it's all in the execution it's all in the execution so we'll see anyway I wanted to make sure that you knew about that oh hey SEO tour review happy holidays and thank you SEO tour review for having me in your Christmas video I did post the SEO tour review Christmas video so if you guys haven't seen that go check that out I'm in it he put me in it so thank you so SEO tour reviews just to catch you up apparently I have to take a drink every time somebody sends a super chat I have taken a few drinks already so as much as I appreciate everybody's generosity you know let's you know sometimes you can be less generous you don't always have to be generous I appreciate the generosity but you know yeah yeah and if you want to see GI Joe at retail again then it's not really a question of whether a bunch of 40 year old GI Joe fans like it it's a question of whether you know the kids like it thank you Kurt rowdy Rodimus says but will it ever go back to the days of our childhood of taking pencil cases full of Joe's to school and trading during recess I don't know I don't know and maybe not but even if it doesn't even if it doesn't you can still have success with this generation it's still possible it is even if they're not you know as interested in plastic action figures as we were they you know the kids these days express their enjoyment of things in other ways excuse me so I don't know that necessarily will be like it was when we were kids but but there's could still be something there could still be something and the kids the kids could still like it and if the kids like it then then we will get more toys a lot of those toys may go to adult collectors but you know they'll make more toys now it to me it doesn't matter a whole lot if they make more toys because I'm not a modern toy collector but I know a lot of guys out you guys out there are modern toy collectors so you know if for you guys it should be a bit of a Renaissance but do you think re-releasing some of the vintage Joe's is possible I don't know there I know that some of the molds are not in existence anymore for the old figures so I'm not sure about the expense that would be involved so I don't know is the answer don't worry Jason I'm I'm not gonna strip down just because I'm having a few drinks so it's alright everybody calm down everybody calm down this show is gonna stay you know PG you know we're not going R rated okay so everybody chill out so yeah so that was the synopsis that I read online of the Snake Eyes movie I'm still hopeful I'm not sure about some of these story points but we will see we will see if they can make MP transformers they should be able to make in PG edges yeah a PG-13 Eric says do I produce and or sell t-shirts with my logo yeah I do it's a good point Eric I haven't posted that in a while hang on let me tell you where to find it yes I do have t-shirts I forget to be I have t-shirts but I do have some hang on one second I'm gonna drop the link into the chat right now Jason says he would like to get a six inch black series style GI Joe that that is brought up from time to time and I know a lot of people like to see it and as is often pointed out you know the flip side of that is you know as six inch figures they'll be more expensive and it would be prohibitive to produce vehicles for figures that size so you probably wouldn't get any vehicles at all in a six inch black series line but you know there seems to be some interest for it because people keep bringing it up so it's something that they might consider but I think they'll only consider it if basically if this movie does well yeah I'm hoping that it'll be a starting point a new jumping on point yeah rattle brain keep it character driven that's the way to do it it's got to be about good characters one thing that I liked about bumblebee is that it was a movie about people and that's what all good movies really are about even if they are robots there's still people and that's what it has to be about and that's if you read Larry Hama's interviews that's kind of the approach that he takes to writing and you know plot is just kind of a framework on which to hang these characters and to see how the characters interact because if you don't care about the characters then the plot doesn't matter because if you don't if you don't care about the characters you don't care what happens to them so you have to have characters that people can invest in and James says he's Johnny five and he's alive well Johnny five I believe we need input let's have input Mike says did John seem to have any ties with GI Joe and boom and bubblebee I hate to spoil anything in fact I won't spoil anything I can give you the answer but I feel like I would be spoiling it some people in here haven't seen the movie and would like to see it so I'm not gonna spoil anything comic trope says I should drink the bottle behind me this cheap this this cheap ass vodka that my sister-in-law brought no maybe later maybe when I run out of everything else so yeah so hey yeah so that's those are my thoughts about comic tropes really likes that phrase it's good enough for the girls I go out with you know Sandy who I got that phrase from has passed away but I'm sure he would be gratified knowing that his his catchphrase has lived on thank you Kurt Kurt sends another $1.99 super chat and I take another drink oh that wasn't good enough that was that was like a dollar worth this is a $1.99 super chat I got to give a $1.99 worth of a drink ah nothing like drinking on a weeknight huh I'll have to drink a lot of water and try to not have a hangover tomorrow thank you though it just might be worth it yeah good enough for the girls I go out with that should be maybe that should be the new catchphrase for 2019 I'll retire only GIO and I'll end every episode with well that's good enough for the girls I go out with a speaking of Sandy you know at the bookstore where I used to work at Gardner's bookstore Sandy and I built the the huge bookcases that are in the main building of the store and those things were built to last I mean those things are still standing but recently the store changed the carpet they took out all the old carpet and put on nice new clean carpet and I was I was wondering how because Sandy laid those bookcases right on top of the old carpet and they are immobile it is not possible to move them you have to tear the building down to move them so I asked them how they did that and they actually cut they cut the carpet around the bookcases because that's all they could do there's there's no way to actually get the carpet out or get the move the bookcases to get to get the carpet so but hey the place looks really nice now the place looks really nice Sandy would like it it's it's really classy looking now hello Yeti how you doing so yes thanks for the really cool stuff from Dallas vintage toys thank you Jeff Adams for that cool stuff the renegades DVDs thanks for the superchats which are getting me hammered which I wasn't expecting to do this evening I'm supposed to be drinking this when when somebody says a super chat but it's here in front of me and if it's here in front of me I just I just you know habitually just sorry yeah anyway so does anybody else have any thoughts anybody else seen the Bumblebee movie and anybody have any thoughts about the snake eyes movie synopsis actually let me post the link for that in the chat if you want to read it for yourself oh Jason sends two dollars hang on hang on Jason hang on you'll get you two dollars worth he gets a two dollars worth hanging once again I just want to post this link there okay that's the link to what I just read okay that's mostly ice now it doesn't count I was mostly ice now I got to refill okay I'm not I'm gonna try not to overdo it all right to this for Jason here we go okay it's a good thing this live stream is only an hour because I don't think I could do too much more of that yeah it's it's Jim beam devil's cut a friend of mine got this that for me at a Christmas party a couple years ago and I thought it was not too bad so I went ahead and got some more of it recently our oh painted plastic how you doing hello better late than never recently in Oklahoma we changed our liquor laws so you can actually buy like wine in supermarkets before that you could only buy it in liquor stores well ever since people can actually just buy wine in in supermarkets the liquor stores are like oh my god we're going out of business oh Kurt this is for his wife Ruthie Ruthie I blame you yeah rowdy said he saw a bumblebee last week and loved it great being able to tell the box for each other yes I mean the obviously the G1 transformer designs were updated right they were more detailed than the the original toy or the cartoon but I mean you they were heavily inspired by the G1 designs and you know Optimus Prime looked like Optimus Prime sound wave looked like sound wave it would be very easy for me to give away spoilers right now but but I don't want to you should go see it judge for yourself I liked it very much Steven Alstead says in California you can buy drinks 24-7 well isn't that nice well that's special well here you can't where we are we are a bit behind the times in many ways we're only we're only only 50 to 60 years behind other parts of the country we'll catch up we'll catch up I have no doubt that in within the next 30 years we will only be 40 years behind the rest of the country you got we're from Oklahoma we move slowly you got to give us the time to get up to speed so yeah so we got a few more minutes I will try to keep this to an hour have your central time it we are in central time yes blue laws are grand they are great they

very happy that we did I got to thank everyone the YouTube channel is doing great and I have to thank every all of you guys for that rowdy says lives on the Arkansas Oklahoma border mailbox is in Oklahoma but take a step in the yard and you're in Arkansas okay all right you know I could I could make some jokes because there is a little bit of an Oklahoma Arkansas rivalry but I won't because we could be the butt of those jokes so oh Brian's on sends another $20 thank you Brian this is to you a guy with an excellent name good name good name Javier says it's a brotherhood you know we have a great community here I mean I know there is like a larger GI Joe fan community and we're just a part of that but I I really love the people that follow my channel I feel like I have some of the smartest people viewers that that that anyone has ever had I mean you guys don't hardly give me any trouble you know in comments you you you have you know opinions about things but you're able to express your opinions in really intelligent ways you you're informative you got information and man I can tell you right now that there are a lot of YouTube channels even really big YouTube channels that would be very envious of what we have right here we have a really fantastic community and Joe Fest in June of 2019 I hope to see a lot of you there more promotions as we get close to that Bishop says thank you well thank you you know it without all of you guys it would just be me talking into the void you guys are the ones who actually come and and and join me every week for each review and each podcast so that really means a lot to me it really does I want all of you to know that sometimes I get tired I'm not I won't deny it sometimes doing the reviews I get really tired because it is a lot of work it is it's a ton of work and sometimes when I'm tired I kind of lose track of of what's important but you guys that's why these live streams are important because you guys get me back on track and you guys remind me of why it's important to do this Bishop Joe Fest will be in Augusta Georgia in June and yes I will have a booth Javier Gonzalez I will have a booth at Joe Fest in fact the Ed Schumacher the organizer of Joe Fest posted a list of the booths and my name is on it so I'm there and they're also supposed to give me a panel so I'm gonna do a panel and at the panel I want to talk about all of the really cool stuff that's happening for GI Joe on YouTube so you know there are a lot of GI Joe fans out there and they have no idea that we're doing all this really cool stuff on YouTube for GI Joe it's it's a great I still think it's a great time to be GI Joe fan so for a lot of those folks who don't know what we're doing here not just me but you know all of your favorite GI Joe YouTube personalities I want to make sure that everybody knows about all of them because you know each of your GI Joe fan creators on YouTube they all bring something different to the table comic trope says remember to eat three Joe's a day well you know I breakfast lunch and dinner is it possible to do a live stream of the panel I'll have to see I have to see I'd like to I should record the panel I'll definitely record the panel but but I don't know if I can live stream I'll just have to see how the internet connections are if I can I will but I don't know if I can or not I'll just have to find out when I get there Michael Bassett says do I think FormBX 257 will make it I haven't heard of FormBX 257 making any plans he doesn't seem to make a lot of convention appearances so I would love love to meet Kevin that he's Kevin is my hero and Kurt says I will kidnap FormBX 257 and get him there all right here's to you except we won't mention the kidnapping business you know plausible deniability but I am a big fan of Kevin I wouldn't be doing this without Kevin then Kevin has inspired a lot of other people too so man I he is one person from YouTube that I haven't met yet that I would absolutely love to but but you know he doesn't he doesn't make a lot of convention appearances so anyway so hey oh it's an hour we've been going for an hour and I as much as I appreciate the live chats I I'm starting to feel this now so maybe it's time for me to have a lie down but I think it's time for us to wrap up the live stream thank you everyone I'm so glad I did this I missed you
