1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,000
And we're in.

2
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,000
Hello.

3
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Another new guest.

4
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,000
It's very everybody.

5
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,000
No one has any idea who you are.

6
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:10,000
It's D Money.

7
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:11,000
D Money.

8
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,000
D Money likes call me.

9
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Oh, Darryl.

10
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:14,000
It is.

11
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:15,000
You know what?

12
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,000
You're actually too loud.

13
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,000
You're the first person we've had on that's too loud.

14
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:20,000
There you go.

15
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Perfect.

16
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:22,000
Just about like that.

17
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Shall I cut the bulls?

18
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:28,000
I'm holding this bike and it's like a 12 inch big car.

19
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:33,600
This is why this is why we want to when me and Steph move, why we want to incorporate

20
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,840
having microphone stands because for the people that obviously don't know this fucking set

21
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,560
up, we're having to hold the microphones in our hands because I don't actually have anywhere

22
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:47,200
to put a fucking stand because I know you can, you can get big stands, but it would

23
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,880
be like fucking six foot tall and then down on your face like that.

24
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:55,200
Whereas the other ones like, like if you down on your knees, massive.

25
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,320
Of course, it's going to be one of those.

26
00:00:58,320 --> 00:00:59,320
Not my first time.

27
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,040
Or you got to like clamp them down.

28
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,400
The logistics of it doesn't fucking work.

29
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,360
So we're resigned to having to hold it in front of our faces.

30
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,120
But you should be absolutely fine.

31
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,120
I feel fine.

32
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:12,120
I feel I'm excited.

33
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:13,120
Good.

34
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:14,120
I'm excited.

35
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:15,120
I've got a what's the buttons boner.

36
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,120
It's not a new thing.

37
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,720
All your listeners get them.

38
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,440
So just write in, say if you don't get it.

39
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,640
And then I think you're, I think you're actually classed as gay.

40
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:26,640
What's the bonus?

41
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,640
This is going to be great.

42
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,640
This is going to be absolutely great.

43
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:33,640
I'm sweating.

44
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:34,640
I stopped to the BP.

45
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:35,640
Didn't I get them in?

46
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:36,640
You got these at the BP.

47
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:37,640
Did you pay premium for them?

48
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:38,640
No, BP have a special offer.

49
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,640
I know because I'm all over the, uh, the special offers.

50
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,640
No man go locos.

51
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:43,640
I've had far too many energy drinks in the last week.

52
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,640
It's not good for you.

53
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:45,640
Oh, sorry, man.

54
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:46,640
I would have got you in a.

55
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,640
That's absolutely fine.

56
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:48,640
Cause I'll never say no.

57
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:49,640
A little purdy.

58
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,640
Super healthy water.

59
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,640
Is that a little fucking metal?

60
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:58,640
Yeah.

61
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:03,640
Like 17 quid for a fucking metal, metal bit of bollocks.

62
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:12,480
If you, let me, um, Darrell's, uh, would, would you say, would you say like a closet

63
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:13,480
nerd?

64
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:14,480
Yeah.

65
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:21,880
I suppose, um, I grew up when gaming sort of came out a long time ago when the ZX spectrums

66
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,240
were out and you were playing.

67
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,080
Cause there's a big old age gap between us.

68
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:26,080
How old are you?

69
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,080
46.

70
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:28,080
46.

71
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:29,080
Yeah.

72
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,080
27.

73
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,080
There's a gap.

74
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,840
So I've been through it, but, um, I suppose I was sort of classed as a bit of a, a bit

75
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,520
of a jock, but closet nerd.

76
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:37,520
Yeah.

77
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,920
I mean, when I was a kid, I was, I was a fucking specimen.

78
00:02:40,920 --> 00:02:42,800
I can run fast.

79
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,600
I've got great hand coordination.

80
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,280
Um, I can run really, really fast.

81
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,720
I mean, if I was in the Paleolithic times, I would have had so much monkey puss.

82
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,920
You just would not believe, but that's not the case.

83
00:02:56,920 --> 00:02:58,920
This, this, this, this age, everyone likes a little nerd.

84
00:02:58,920 --> 00:03:02,240
I feel a little bit like 21 drunk street, you know, old Channing.

85
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,240
Is that what you feel like?

86
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,240
Yeah.

87
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:05,240
Yeah.

88
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,960
Like I can walk into a shop and my nerds will love me.

89
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:14,000
I feel like from sort of experience with like people that we work with, I feel like when

90
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,720
you, when you first talk about the nerdy shit, or I say, no, just the stuff that we do like

91
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,280
gaming and fucking Lord of the Rings, Dungeons and Dragons and all that type of stuff.

92
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,360
I feel like everyone who isn't in that world immediately hits you with all sort of like

93
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:32,420
an offensive stance and like, I'm going to take the piss out of you for this now until

94
00:03:32,420 --> 00:03:37,120
you get them like one to one and start talking to people about like Dungeons and Dragons

95
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,120
and shit like that.

96
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,920
I feel like most people have some form of affinity with gaming.

97
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,680
Yeah, definitely.

98
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:51,880
I suppose nerd, I think we like to associate with gaming and, but you can be about nerd

99
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,160
about anything, you know, birds, that type of shit, trees.

100
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,160
Yeah, pretty much.

101
00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,440
It's just you being really interested in your sort of hobby and you take it a little bit

102
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:01,440
too far.

103
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:09,120
And then I think, I suppose people hate it because that stigma, you and Connor have chatted

104
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:16,320
about it as well, but I suppose people are nerdy in their own, if they're very one dimensional,

105
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,320
very nerdy in that.

106
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:22,880
And it's like fuck, people just like, if someone talks to me about, you know, fun guy for longer

107
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,920
than five minutes, I'll run my brain switch on, fuck this, what is this dude talking about?

108
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,800
And if it becomes your life, then everyone's like, oh, what would I do?

109
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:30,800
This guy's boring.

110
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:31,800
Yeah.

111
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:36,760
And then they, you know, you've got the nerd, super nerds that don't wash and you know,

112
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,760
it's like the Comic Con nerds.

113
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:45,040
But yeah, I should imagine there's, I mean, we all know there's great nerds out there.

114
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,760
Henry, Henry Cavill, mate.

115
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:47,760
Oh yeah, man.

116
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,760
I've now got a Cavill boner.

117
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:55,280
But yeah, there's so many out there, you know, it's just you taking your hobby to an extreme

118
00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:56,280
and you know.

119
00:04:56,280 --> 00:04:57,280
Yeah, pretty much.

120
00:04:57,280 --> 00:05:03,720
And we've mentioned it quite a few times on the pod where gaming's that such a massive

121
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:10,720
industry that I feel like you're hard pressed to live your life about without gaming having

122
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:15,280
some kind of effect on you, even whether it be through a series that you're watching or

123
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:18,840
through fucking playing a game on your phone or some shit like that.

124
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:24,320
I feel like at some point in your life, even down to like candy crush, you know what I

125
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,320
mean?

126
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,640
You're playing lady shit, fucking playing candy, but still gaming.

127
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:37,440
So yeah, it's, it's, uh, that was a big old fucking rugby player that plays Dungeons and

128
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,440
Dragons with us.

129
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:39,440
Yeah, I love it.

130
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,400
It's, it's mental, like how you can use your imagination.

131
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:49,120
I suppose if you've got that, um, I don't know, something about you, you, you, you go

132
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,720
in depth or you, you immerse yourself in it.

133
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,120
You really enjoy it.

134
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,400
Um, and yeah, I love it.

135
00:05:55,400 --> 00:06:00,040
You'd be surprised as well, like the amount of guys that I play rugby with that are now,

136
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:05,280
cause I came out as a closet now through Pokemon to start with.

137
00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:09,440
Um, and there was a couple of lads in my rugby team and I, oh yeah, we're into Pokemon as

138
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,440
well.

139
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:11,440
And it just needed someone just to go.

140
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:12,440
Yeah, that's it.

141
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,200
And then all of a sudden, you know, I said, Oh, we're going to play D&D and now there's

142
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,960
a D&D group with some of like about six, seven rugby lads.

143
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:20,960
Um, yeah.

144
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,200
And it'll all be great.

145
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,200
I know we haven't played just yet, but we, we, we are aiming to, but you know, it would

146
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,480
be fucking brilliant because everyone would just be getting involved with it.

147
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,120
They would be, you know, like we're in a, we're in a tavern and my first thing is right.

148
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,800
Where's the fucking birds and we need to get now in this shit.

149
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,960
And also, Oh yeah, we've got this persuasion sort of stuff that we can roll for.

150
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,800
And I'm like, Oh, let's get free shit.

151
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,800
Let's fucking, let's get as much stuff.

152
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,960
So you're in there and you know, not only that is you, you can actually, like you were

153
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,200
talking about previously, um, you can imagine it as well.

154
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:56,200
You're in there.

155
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,600
There's, and I suppose you draw some of that from things like Lord of the Rings, where

156
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:04,560
they go to the Prancing Pony and that type of, you look at me, I know it, I know it all.

157
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,560
Um, yeah.

158
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:11,080
So you can get sort of half that imagery from films and bits and bits up to your own brain

159
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,320
and your personality to how far you take it and what you want to do.

160
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:20,400
Cause I'm pretty sure in Prancing Pony Frodo didn't ask the wench there if he could get

161
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,560
a knockers out and a little suck on him, try and persuade, persuade role.

162
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:30,000
Um, so yeah, it's, it's one, like if you don't, if you haven't played DD and you listen to

163
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,000
this play is awesome.

164
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:37,480
Um, get not, and don't be afraid to be a nerd because what you think of might be a jock

165
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,520
out there, but actually they're probably secret.

166
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,160
They're probably doing lots of stuff online.

167
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:50,080
Well, like the, the last D and D session that we played was arguably in like the last five

168
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:56,320
years, the funnest time that I've had fucking playing, playing anything.

169
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,840
And it was playing something where I originally went in with the mindset of, I'm not going

170
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,640
to be able to do this.

171
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,360
I don't have the creativity for it.

172
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,680
And yet it was so much fun.

173
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:08,960
It's so much fun.

174
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,520
And you saw it, you kind of almost feel somewhat anxious about the people that you're playing

175
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,560
with and like, Oh, do I want to put on a voice?

176
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:16,560
Do I want to do this?

177
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:17,560
Do I want to do that?

178
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,440
People think I'm a bit, I'm a bit weird for doing that or blah, blah, blah.

179
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:27,240
But then you, you quickly realized that I'm sat around the table with the same, like with

180
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,160
my friends and we're all playing exactly the same fucking game.

181
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:35,400
Like the voices that you were doing our last session was just fucking fantastic.

182
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:36,880
Absolutely loved it.

183
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:43,840
But I felt like that, that comfortability of you really getting into the role play allowed

184
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,000
everyone else to really delve into the role play as well.

185
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,600
And I can see that developing over more and more sessions that we do.

186
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:51,760
It's fun, man.

187
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:52,760
I love it.

188
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:53,760
Yeah.

189
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,560
I think it also, I mean, I'm pretty bulls anyway.

190
00:08:56,560 --> 00:09:02,520
I'll go out and I don't mind, you know, um, doing crazy stuff in the middle of a wither

191
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,520
spoons pub.

192
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:08,320
But, um, but yeah, like, but we work off each other as well.

193
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,840
You know, like people set you up for stuff.

194
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,640
Like I had no intention of gobbling on you when you were down and out.

195
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,600
And I'm covering it.

196
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,080
I thought, how, how can I make this worse for him?

197
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,440
I'm going to spit on him.

198
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,720
I'm going to hook up a massive shitty loogie.

199
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,840
You imagine I've probably been traveling for days and dust up there.

200
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,400
I've probably been eating raw rabbit.

201
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,720
There's a bit of fuck it.

202
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,160
It's all, you know, so yeah.

203
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:39,120
So you, cause you're setting a, setting a scene for yourself and others.

204
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,080
I think not as a responsibility.

205
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,680
I think it makes you a much better D and D player if you engulf that as well.

206
00:09:45,680 --> 00:09:52,480
And now I'm in his head, I'm in his scene, but how can I add to, how can I make that

207
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:53,480
better?

208
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,960
And I genuinely thrive off of other people like that.

209
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,480
So the more you give, then the more I can give.

210
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,480
Yeah.

211
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,920
Cause that's what I want to, that's what I want to, um, almost break that, that barrier

212
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:12,880
of understanding that I'm not, I'm not playing drew him the fucking fighter dwarf.

213
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,240
I am drew him the fight dwarf in that moment.

214
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:21,400
And that, that, that's where I can feel myself slowly getting into that.

215
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,320
But I'm hoping the next couple of sessions is where I can really delve into.

216
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:29,040
Cause when you watch things like critical role, when they're doing their, their sessions,

217
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:35,120
you can just see that they're, they're not them in real life when they're, when they're

218
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,680
actually playing, like they are the characters that they've created.

219
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:44,400
And I just feel like to have, obviously that's a skewed way to look at it though, because

220
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,720
they're, they're professionals.

221
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,240
I mean, they're, they're professional voice actors or they're in that world.

222
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:51,240
They are fucking top tier.

223
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,360
So to then for me as an amateur to look at that and go, well, why don't I exactly like

224
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:56,360
them?

225
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:57,360
Like it's never going to fucking happen.

226
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:58,360
Not yet anyway.

227
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,800
But it's definitely, it helps for the whole inspiration side of it.

228
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,080
You know what I mean?

229
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,080
Yeah, definitely.

230
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,080
I think that's all.

231
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,720
And as I've been doing it for so long, they've developed so many of what I've seen, they've

232
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:15,600
developed these characters and they changed them, but actually there's sort of micro parts

233
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,960
of that old character that's the new cat.

234
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:24,320
So, you know, they're just drawing off of a wealth of wealth of their, their experience.

235
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,160
And I can't remember the dungeon master's name.

236
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,640
He's got the long hair.

237
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:37,880
He's yeah, that name is Zach penis, but the way he can just be a dungeon master telling

238
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:38,880
them what to do.

239
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,800
And then all of a sudden just jumps into a character of and multiple characters.

240
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,920
The last time I saw it, I think he was in a, um, what was it?

241
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:53,360
Um, like a meeting, um, with something like probably around about 20 other characters

242
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,360
to two sex.

243
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:57,360
Fantastic.

244
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,360
Yeah.

245
00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:59,360
About 20.

246
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,720
And he literally played 20 different characters, different voices, mouth.

247
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,880
And it's, it is impressive, but not undoable.

248
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,080
I think I could now, you reckon you could do it.

249
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,080
Yeah.

250
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,080
Yeah.

251
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,080
Like what we got here, we've got the monk, a little, we've got a, like a little gorilla.

252
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:15,080
Yeah.

253
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,080
So you made a gorilla and I sit on this table looking out the window.

254
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,080
Do you know what I mean?

255
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,120
And then, uh, we've got, um, where else we've got?

256
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,520
Um, there's a fish, fish character.

257
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:26,520
Right.

258
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:31,520
Quick fucking wooden woman.

259
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,520
Oh, God.

260
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:35,520
Oh, man.

261
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,520
My, the wood is fucking old.

262
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,520
I love it.

263
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,520
I love it.

264
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:44,520
Yeah.

265
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,800
So like, you'll get there Reese.

266
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:47,800
I know.

267
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:48,800
Definitely.

268
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,520
I will definitely play it and try and develop more and more.

269
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:55,520
I've been thinking about maybe two other sort of characters that I want to do.

270
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:56,520
Um, yeah.

271
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,720
And I suppose that that's not, that's sort of nerdy, but you can, you can get away with

272
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:00,720
that.

273
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,920
But I think what really hit me is when I went and bought a little mini figure and started

274
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,520
to paint it and then I was like, Oh my God, this is it.

275
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,960
Nerd nerd nerd.

276
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,000
Like the nerd bolt of lightning has hit the tip of the paint.

277
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,440
Do you have like a little magnifying glass to, have you got the full set?

278
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:24,000
I went the whole lot of painting, paintbrush, like whatever.

279
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Have you finished?

280
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,000
Have you finished one yet?

281
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:32,520
Um, I'm probably about 90% through by that incident where I just spilt fucking paint

282
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,480
everywhere and I just lost my shit.

283
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:41,400
It just went everywhere and trying to get rid of it is such a fucking pain in the ass.

284
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:42,400
Everywhere.

285
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:46,160
Just it's only like a small tin of paint, but I spilled half it and it managed.

286
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:50,560
I mean, I think I've got some of it under my fucking asshole or something inside me.

287
00:13:50,560 --> 00:13:54,640
It was everywhere, literally all over the floor.

288
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:55,640
Oh man.

289
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,640
What a nightmare.

290
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,280
So is that cause we're going to be playing DND in a couple of weeks.

291
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,160
Do you reckon it will be ready by then?

292
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,160
Yeah.

293
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,160
I haven't even fucking glued mine together, man.

294
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,520
I haven't even glued them together.

295
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,640
I'm just pull your finger out.

296
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:15,160
But it's a, it's another thing where I, I just don't know if I would enjoy painting

297
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:23,400
because it's so like, like when I was talking to Connor about it, I just know full well,

298
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,480
I'd probably just go two colors and that's it.

299
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:27,480
Yeah.

300
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:32,080
I think we've made, we've jumped in balls deep really because we've got mini figures.

301
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:36,440
I mean, there's so much detail on there and fine detail.

302
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,840
Whereas I think they recommend that you just start with like figures that are sort of five

303
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,880
inches tall and you can work it out.

304
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,640
No, we've got fucking cause.

305
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:45,640
Tiny, tiny, tiny.

306
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,280
ADHD or whatever has kicked in with I'm not missing out.

307
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,480
I'm going to have a character and it's going to be the balls.

308
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:52,920
It's terrible man.

309
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:57,480
Even like just drawing it away for a second.

310
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,800
Pokemon fucking hell.

311
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:05,920
What advice that was for the, for you, me and Ash and O'Connor narrowly escaped that

312
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,920
fucking little fuck me.

313
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:15,840
That, that's, I mean, I suppose the, the, the difference between the three of us is

314
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,720
that you actually play Pokemon.

315
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:18,720
Yeah.

316
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,080
Whereas me and Ash were just pure at that point, just gambling.

317
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,080
Yeah.

318
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,040
You just thought fuck, I'm going to, I'm going to pay out seven quid and I'm going to make

319
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:29,040
a million.

320
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:30,040
Yeah.

321
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,040
Really.

322
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,040
I'm going to make loads of money and then make up.

323
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,680
I mean, all of mine are fucking sat right next to you.

324
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:39,840
My binders and everything that like, there's some cool shit in there, but I feel like,

325
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:47,240
I feel like playing competitive card games just isn't in my wheelhouse whatsoever.

326
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,240
Yeah.

327
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,840
I mean, well that's how I started really.

328
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,840
Cause you got fucked up by a lot of kids.

329
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:54,840
Oh man.

330
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,840
Fucking, I went all the way to Liverpool for it now.

331
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:04,400
To get my ass handed to me by a, by children, like a fucking 10 year old kid.

332
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:05,400
Yeah.

333
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:11,480
I started online probably, you know, through Pokemon, not Pokemon go, whatever.

334
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:12,480
That TCG.

335
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:13,480
Yeah.

336
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:14,480
That's it.

337
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:15,480
Pokemon TCG.

338
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:16,480
Yeah.

339
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,480
Played it on there.

340
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,120
Started to learn a little bit more about it.

341
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,640
And again, you got, you just got to dive in there and it's, it's ever evolving again.

342
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:28,480
It changes, you know, there's different sort of, there's different sort of characters or

343
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,640
different sets to play, but you've, it's constantly evolving, you know, cause you're playing against

344
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,760
someone else that could have something that has a weakness for you.

345
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,920
And it's like really interesting, really in depth.

346
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,800
And I, and I loved it and enjoyed it, but if you don't move it, it's like, I had, I

347
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,880
can't remember what happened, but I think I changed jobs or something.

348
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,200
I just missed the loop for like a month.

349
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,960
I missed a re a release and then I was fucked.

350
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,840
You know, you're behind and you've got to buy a net loan.

351
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,200
You've got to hope you get it.

352
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,360
Then you've got to go on, you've got to build these sets and you get one set.

353
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:05,000
And I was, I was doing really well online and actually like Liverpool really did help.

354
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:09,800
I went up for the champion UK championships in Liverpool with a friend.

355
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:10,800
He done really well.

356
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:11,800
He was insane.

357
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:16,920
Like it was only sort of an amateur class, but he won it.

358
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,400
He he done really well.

359
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:24,120
He went on to worlds and tried, tried to win the pro and didn't last too long.

360
00:17:24,120 --> 00:17:26,560
Fuckin London, London wipes him out.

361
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:27,920
Fair play.

362
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:33,520
Yes, but yeah, I can see the, the, the, um, the draw with the cards.

363
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,320
Like there's some beautiful cards out there.

364
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:36,320
It's like anything.

365
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,440
Oh, the art style was fantastic.

366
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:42,720
And as collectors as well, you know, you collect, I mean, you've got multiple stuff around here.

367
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,720
Lots of fun.

368
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:44,720
Pop-ups, figures, trinkets.

369
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,720
Yeah.

370
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,800
It's, um, it's a fucking collectors wet, wet dream in it.

371
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,200
And it's definitely a work nerd's wet dream.

372
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:53,360
Um, yes.

373
00:17:53,360 --> 00:18:00,160
So, uh, because we went, we went from collecting the cards, it was first, it was first trying

374
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,040
to figure out what fucking sets that we wanted, because obviously there's a whole plethora

375
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:10,960
of, of, of, of evolution sets, fucking expansions that you can roll with.

376
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:16,040
And I believe it was, it was Ash that first started doing it.

377
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:23,800
And it was Tik Tok live from that nostalgia trading card geezer.

378
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,920
And he started buying off of him.

379
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:31,320
And then I feel like that's what fucking fueled us because he'd open the packs in front of

380
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:32,320
you.

381
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,520
You'd, you'd fucking buy whatever on, on his shop and then he'd open them live.

382
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,920
So basically like gambling because you wouldn't, you have no idea what you're fucking getting.

383
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,720
And then, and then the age send them to you and blah, blah, blah.

384
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,640
And then slowly collecting sets.

385
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,280
And then that exhilaration when you pull a really decent card and you're like, Oh my

386
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,520
God, I've got fucking like crown Zenith come out.

387
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:59,600
Um, and it was like one of my first couple of packs and I pulled one of the, um, what

388
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,220
was it called?

389
00:19:01,220 --> 00:19:04,560
One of the gold cards that they had like four or five of them.

390
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,760
I can't remember which one I got.

391
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,000
I can't remember the name of the Pokemon.

392
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:12,140
Um, but then after that, I was like, yeah, I'm fucking, I'm hooked.

393
00:19:12,140 --> 00:19:16,560
And then we started rolling into the realms of getting graded cards.

394
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,700
And I was like, that's like, that's like Funko pops.

395
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:21,400
And then going into sign Funko pops.

396
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,880
It's like, I feel like that's, that's like the next fucking level with, with collecting

397
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,040
Pokemon cards.

398
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:30,400
And after that, just buying fucking slabs after slabs after slabs of fucking Pokemon

399
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,000
because they're cool things to have.

400
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:38,760
I feel like the, the act of here's a trading card game designed for a purpose to be used

401
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,000
in a, in a fucking game.

402
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,120
But let me encase it in fucking plastic.

403
00:19:44,120 --> 00:19:46,600
So you can't actually use it as a card.

404
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:47,840
You can, but it'd be a ball.

405
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:54,060
Like for some reason that you, you've now made me unable to use that for its purpose

406
00:19:54,060 --> 00:19:56,040
has made it even more enticing.

407
00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:00,720
So in one of those boxes, there's just a row of fucking slabs.

408
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,520
And that was like ultimate fucking, cause then tick the people on tech talk live started

409
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:10,080
doing like mystery packs for slabs and she was like, I spent 50 quid and then you get

410
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,080
a fucking slab out of it and you might get a decent one.

411
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,080
I was like, oh fuck it.

412
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:17,640
And I'm pretty sure the first slab I bought, it was like, it was meant to be a card worth

413
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,720
40 quid, but the gaze would put the wrong slab in the wrong bag and it was worth like

414
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:21,720
90 quid.

415
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,920
I was like, I'm going to make loads of money.

416
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,240
Never fucking sold any of them though.

417
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,720
Have I all of this shit here guys all worth so much money.

418
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,160
It's worth fuck all until you try and sell it.

419
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:32,160
Yeah.

420
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:33,160
It's worth nothing.

421
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,280
This is all poor investment.

422
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:36,280
Thousands of pounds.

423
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:43,880
But to a nerd when I walked in, I was like, Oh God, oh my God.

424
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:49,040
Look at those little slides.

425
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:56,440
It's so weird that you grow some form of upset.

426
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,200
It was just ornaments in it.

427
00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,200
Yeah.

428
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:00,680
It's just our version of fucking ornaments.

429
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:05,480
It's no different from your name collecting fucking ladro or some shit like that.

430
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:06,480
Yeah.

431
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:07,480
It looks great.

432
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:08,480
Yeah.

433
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:14,640
I can, and I totally see where you come in from with it with the Pokemon slabs and stuff.

434
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:20,040
I was, I mean, I haven't got one, but that's not to say I wouldn't, you know, it's, um,

435
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,040
they're cool man.

436
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:24,640
There's some mega stuff, but I won't, I won't just buy again.

437
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,880
Like, so you, you won't just buy shit just cause it's in a slab.

438
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:28,880
It's gotta be right.

439
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,840
And it's, you know, it's gotta be unique.

440
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:38,320
Cause I feel like that's, that's where you start is, um, you, you like you buy a slab

441
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,480
it's graded or whatever.

442
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,760
And then once it grabs ahold of you, I feel like that's when you start delving into the

443
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,160
stuff that you really want, which is what obviously I started doing with Funko pops

444
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,520
as I right now I've collected a couple of these, got my first signed one.

445
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:51,520
There was a ride.

446
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:52,520
My first sign one was a Gimli.

447
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,560
So let's get all of the fucking Lord of the Rings signed ones.

448
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,080
And then you realize how rare and expensive they are.

449
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,080
You go, right.

450
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,480
Well, that's fucking, that's almost impossible.

451
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:05,480
And I like, I think my, my L ronde, which is down on the bottom row, I think somewhere

452
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:11,080
that was like 400 and something quid and it's that's fucking ridiculous.

453
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:17,120
But the, the thrill of collecting it, because this is sort of like the first stuff that

454
00:22:17,120 --> 00:22:18,880
I've ever collected.

455
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:19,880
Yeah.

456
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,640
Um, with real adult money as well.

457
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:27,720
So it's like fucking boss after the money, fucking money going to things like Comic-Con.

458
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:32,760
I never realized that Funko pops were so big until you go to Comic-Con and then you just

459
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,640
realize that 90% of what everyone said in is fucking Funko pops.

460
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:37,640
Yep.

461
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,120
You know, yeah, this, this shit is, is mega.

462
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:41,120
Yeah.

463
00:22:41,120 --> 00:22:44,440
There's this, it hooks you in big time.

464
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:45,440
I'm not gonna lie.

465
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,840
And, and, and as you say, like now you'd like probably about 80% of those Funko box.

466
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:54,760
You don't really give a shit about, but you are one on the hunt for the, for the gem,

467
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:55,760
for the chase.

468
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,000
And you're one with like, fuck, actually, I want the day.

469
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:04,440
So I know it's going to be 400 quid, which is, ain't going to happen.

470
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,000
And then you go to, for the, for the stuff that you like.

471
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,000
Yeah.

472
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:14,920
Like, um, so I've just started watching, uh, power rings, which is maybe get back into

473
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:15,920
the Lord of the Rings.

474
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:16,920
Rings of power.

475
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:17,920
Yeah.

476
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:18,920
Rings of power.

477
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,800
And, and now, um, now I'm like, right.

478
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,200
Well I want signed Lord of the Rings.

479
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:24,200
Yeah.

480
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,800
And that's what you would go there for you.

481
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:30,160
Like next time we go, I will be one looking that for that sort of stuff.

482
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:31,640
And it ain't going to come cheap.

483
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,640
And I know that, but I don't care.

484
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:40,320
Cause I'm going to buy for that money that adds to the, almost to the fun of the day,

485
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:45,520
because you like, I, I'm sure there's a, so like there's another Comic-Con in, in what

486
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,840
October that we're all looking to go to.

487
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:52,680
I'm sure that you can find a list of the vendors that are going to be there and maybe what

488
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:53,760
they're selling.

489
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:59,920
Or that I've ever bothered to look, but I find it quite, um, quite a nice added feature

490
00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:01,920
for yourself when you're going to a place like that.

491
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:02,920
And you're like, right.

492
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:04,480
I'm looking for something specific here.

493
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,160
And we look at every, let me quickly skim everything, but I'm looking for something

494
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:13,480
specific just to make the day a little bit more, not exhilarating because you're not

495
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:14,480
running around fucking giddy.

496
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,120
Cause you might find something, but that just a little bit more, especially when you go

497
00:24:18,120 --> 00:24:22,880
as a group, because I'm like, I feel like times that we've been go, right team.

498
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:27,040
I'm fucking looking for a bow rug, fucking Comic-Con exclusive bow rug.

499
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,040
And then everyone's just fucking eyes on having to fucking look and everyone knows what everyone

500
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,560
wants and it's, I just liked that shit, man.

501
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:33,560
Yeah.

502
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:34,560
It's good fun.

503
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:35,560
But yeah, we're going to a thing like Comic-Con.

504
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:36,560
You've got to have a hefty wallet.

505
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:37,560
Yeah, definitely.

506
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:42,920
I mean, I've also been slightly, I mean, it is awesome, but slightly disappointed they

507
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,560
haven't released any of those Comic-Con like Funko's.

508
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:47,560
You know what I mean?

509
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,520
Like there's no like exclusive that we've been to yet where they've said, Oh, this is

510
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:52,520
a Comic-Con.

511
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:53,520
Yeah.

512
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:54,520
Yeah.

513
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:55,520
Every time.

514
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,520
What there has been.

515
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:57,520
Yeah.

516
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,520
Where?

517
00:24:58,520 --> 00:24:59,520
Yeah.

518
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:00,520
Every time.

519
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:01,520
Every time.

520
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,720
Where was the, the star Wars ones there was twice.

521
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,920
I didn't go to star wars one, but I'm pretty sure the Comic-Con one they do.

522
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:10,320
Oh, maybe they didn't.

523
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:11,520
No, I can't.

524
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:12,520
Maybe they didn't.

525
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:13,880
Cause I would have snapped that shit.

526
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,040
Star Wars.

527
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,520
They definitely did.

528
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:17,520
Yeah.

529
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,320
Uh, yeah.

530
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,360
Maybe the last Comic-Con they didn't then because there was, there wasn't an actual

531
00:25:22,360 --> 00:25:23,360
Funko booth.

532
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:26,920
No, there hasn't been a Funko booth, which is a shame.

533
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:27,920
And again, bit of a surprise.

534
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,920
You think Funko would be all over that cause they would make some mega bucks.

535
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:32,920
Yeah.

536
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:39,160
But I also feel like when you're most of, most of the, most of the expensive stuff when

537
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,440
it comes to Funko's is all the older stuff, isn't it?

538
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:42,440
It's the pre-owned.

539
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,560
It's the shit that Funko themselves aren't actually fucking released anymore because

540
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:46,560
they've already released it.

541
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:47,560
Um, and I, yeah, I don't know.

542
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,120
I really don't know.

543
00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:56,280
I kind of like, when we go in October, I don't think there's going to be any, anything specific

544
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,920
that I'll be looking for this time round.

545
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,840
Um, but you can't not look at Funko's.

546
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:03,840
Can't not.

547
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,720
Can't look at, can't afford not to look at those dice either.

548
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:08,720
Oh fucking hell.

549
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:09,720
Yeah.

550
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:10,720
Airplane graded dice.

551
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:11,720
Jesus Christ.

552
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:12,720
Box.

553
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:13,720
Fucking hell.

554
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:19,120
So, at Comic Con we went to our, our main mission there was D&D dice.

555
00:26:19,120 --> 00:26:20,760
Let's get some fucking dice in.

556
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:21,760
Let's get some dice.

557
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:22,760
Let's get something to hold it in.

558
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:30,600
But I feel like in, in this case, we're, we're not being ADHD with it.

559
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:31,600
Like with everything else.

560
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:38,800
I feel like we're being quite, um, quite smart with our new found love for Dungeons and Dragons

561
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,800
in yes, let's get the minis.

562
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:41,800
Let's just paint them.

563
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:42,800
Let's, let's play D&D.

564
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,400
We actually haven't done that many sessions.

565
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,760
Yes, we need dice, but let's not buy fucking 30 packs of fucking dice.

566
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:54,480
Um, but yeah, when we went to Comic Con, every fucking store was just selling dice and I

567
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,640
feel like it got to a point where they're all just so nice, but they're all the same

568
00:26:58,640 --> 00:26:59,800
fucking thing.

569
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:00,800
Yeah.

570
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:01,800
Just slightly different.

571
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:02,800
So trying to pick something.

572
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:03,800
Fuck me.

573
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:04,800
So odd.

574
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:10,440
But, um, yeah, that's, I suppose that's what kept, kept us going around and around and

575
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:11,440
around.

576
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:12,440
Six or seven times.

577
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:13,640
And you still love it.

578
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,000
And then you feed off each other again.

579
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,000
Oh yeah.

580
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,000
Like green.

581
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,000
Green.

582
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:23,640
Well, yeah, my, my character that I'm thinking about, or, oh yeah, man, that's 60 quid.

583
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:24,640
Oh, you give it to me now.

584
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:25,640
Yeah.

585
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:26,640
Yeah.

586
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:27,640
I've got the money.

587
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:35,360
That fucking, yeah, the airplane graded fucking, like a hundred and something quid or, or,

588
00:27:35,360 --> 00:27:37,040
or is it more than that?

589
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,040
However much it was.

590
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,920
I never 60 to 80 quid.

591
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:40,920
I don't need this.

592
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,640
But I think you said it's airplane grade, but yeah, well, they made airplanes.

593
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,640
I made out of fucking gold.

594
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:47,640
Oh, they're just aluminium.

595
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:51,840
So you tell me, yeah, it's fucking dice.

596
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,920
It's just made out of the normal metal that you get aluminium.

597
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,520
It's just light.

598
00:27:58,520 --> 00:27:59,520
That's all this is.

599
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:00,520
I think they weren't even light.

600
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:07,640
I feel like that's fucking that's that that that set of dice is such a scam for, for however

601
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:11,600
much they cost cause you're like, they will have absolutely no fucking relevance from when

602
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,520
you roll and you ain't sending them the fucking space.

603
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,040
And even if you do, that'd be absolutely fine.

604
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,040
I'd pay that money.

605
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,760
If it was actually from the fucking challenger to show, I'd be like, yeah, I'll pay that

606
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:24,760
there.

607
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:25,760
Yeah.

608
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,080
If this come off a bit of it, come up, consider it's probably come off and have Ryan F fucking

609
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:33,120
playing with Thomas cook.

610
00:28:33,120 --> 00:28:35,800
We've got all these planes.

611
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:36,800
What are we going to do?

612
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,480
Make dice, make dice, ridiculous amounts of money for it.

613
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:41,480
Fuck it.

614
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:48,440
Oh, so you've been, so you've been getting into, into Lord of the Rings, Rings of power,

615
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,360
that fucking, that world.

616
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:57,440
I'm so, I'm so jealous of the fact that you get to watch the, the extended editions of

617
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,920
Lord of the Rings for the first time ever.

618
00:28:59,920 --> 00:29:00,920
Yeah.

619
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,840
Uh, it is, if you've not, if you've not watched the extended versions, get your shit on it.

620
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,920
It makes so much more sense.

621
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,280
You know, all right.

622
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,400
It's three hours, 58 minutes long, but mommy, we're nerds.

623
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:14,400
What else are we going to do?

624
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:15,400
Yeah.

625
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,320
I feel like if you're sat there with the intention to watch the entire trilogy of Lord of the

626
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:24,320
Rings, then the extra couple of hours, it's not really going to make that much of a difference.

627
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:25,840
It's pretty mental.

628
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,560
You get to see and hear so much and it makes more, more sense.

629
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:34,160
And I suppose right now is the right time to start watching it again, because you've

630
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:41,680
got, I say the Rings of power, which is a lot of the backstory, um, which you know,

631
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:42,680
older closer.

632
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:43,680
Sorry.

633
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:44,680
There you go.

634
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:45,680
There you go.

635
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:46,680
Uh, yeah.

636
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:52,840
So which just makes so much more sense and really immerse yourself into the, that, that

637
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:57,120
there's a big old, there's a big old fucking rabbit hole that you can go down with the

638
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:04,640
law surrounding Lord of the Rings, the Hobbit, uh, the Silmarillion, uh, if you really wanted

639
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:13,120
to read into that, even just reading, um, reading the books because obviously they're,

640
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,880
they're, they're different, um, to the movies.

641
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,920
Obviously they all follow the same sort of path, but there's, there's details there that

642
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:21,920
are different.

643
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,160
I've never read the books myself, but it's always been something that, that I wanted

644
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,080
to do, they're just so daunting because it's so fucking big.

645
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:34,800
It's like, Oh, I've always like, as a, as, as a kid, I've always argued, go, Oh, why

646
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:35,800
would I want to read the book?

647
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,160
I could just watch the movie.

648
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:42,080
It's like, well, now that I'm, now that I'm older, so if I know, cause there's way more

649
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,640
law that they can portray in the books because they've got way more freedom than fucking

650
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:46,640
on screen.

651
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:47,640
Yeah.

652
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,120
I mean, I, I've not read the books either.

653
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,440
And that's why I think the Rings of power is good for me because I'm like, Oh yeah,

654
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,480
this is, I mean, it's probably people, Oh yeah, but I didn't follow this and they didn't

655
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:58,480
do that.

656
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,160
And you know, you're welcome to that.

657
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,160
Absolutely.

658
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,720
But again, yeah, I'm not going to read those books.

659
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:12,640
I remember trying to read, uh, like the first, um, book and it was so intense in the first

660
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,680
like chapter and I was like, fuck this.

661
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:16,680
Fuck this shit.

662
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:20,000
Cause you can do the audio books.

663
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:25,560
If you, if you, I know Connor listens to a lot of audio books rather than actually reading

664
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,680
and I've never actually tried that myself, but obviously they, they do it for Lord of

665
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:35,960
the Rings and I was tempted to, to start that because I feel like all of us drive quite

666
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,520
a bit for work.

667
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:38,520
Yeah.

668
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,600
Um, so if anyone's going to be able to finish audio books and podcasts and shit like that,

669
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,920
I feel like we've got a decent chance of doing it.

670
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,520
You're not just walking to work and then sitting in an office fucking with an audio book in

671
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:49,520
the background.

672
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:55,920
You're just some driving that fucking Land Rover, which is, which is barely got a window

673
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:56,920
roller.

674
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,240
Grandfather clock in the dash.

675
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:04,120
You can put it in reverse and go backwards in the fucking time.

676
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,200
It's a piece of shit.

677
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,800
My back has only just recovered from driving that piece of shit.

678
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,000
It sounds terrible when we, when we fucking ring you and you're in that.

679
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,000
Oh man.

680
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:18,520
The windows, Clarice got back windows like a slidey hatch that you could serve food from

681
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:25,120
and it rattles like a fucking can and you, I know you hate it when there's any background

682
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:30,360
noises it is, but drive that bastard being on the phone with someone and hearing background

683
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,200
noise is the, ah, fucking hell.

684
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,840
When it was you and Connor in that welfare van.

685
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:36,840
Oh again.

686
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:37,840
Yeah.

687
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,520
That panel, that panel that used to drive me up the walls.

688
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:42,520
Yeah.

689
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:43,520
Jesus Christ.

690
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:44,520
Shit.

691
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,640
It's just so fucking annoying.

692
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,280
The simple things in life can make you pissed off.

693
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:51,280
Yeah.

694
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,720
So, um, yeah, you're right.

695
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,440
Audio books are a good way ahead.

696
00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:02,440
But, uh, I think, yeah, again, it's audio books, isn't it?

697
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,960
It's just, you, it's another excuse.

698
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,920
I feel like it's that weird in between, isn't it?

699
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:11,160
I don't think there's anything wrong with audio books, but at the same time, it, yeah.

700
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:12,160
Okay.

701
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:17,960
It's not like having a good old book and reading it and using your imagination, but you need

702
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:19,560
time and you need that.

703
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:20,560
Yeah.

704
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:26,560
Cause I, cause obviously I went again, ADHD wise went mental.

705
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:33,480
And when I got into the world of warcraft books, when I'm fucking, I think if you want

706
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:41,320
to watch, if you want to read the entire, um, law strict series, there's like 64 books,

707
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:42,320
something like that.

708
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,960
And they're, they're thick fuckers.

709
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:51,720
Um, and I, I like found the list of, of the audio supposed to read in and then ask Steph

710
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,960
for like two, three months went on a mad buying spree.

711
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:57,880
I was like, I was, I'm going to read all of them.

712
00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,240
I'm going to read all of them.

713
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,840
However, someone's told me there's a correct way to read them.

714
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:04,560
So therefore that is now the law and I must read it that way.

715
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,580
So I need to now buy a book number one through to 64.

716
00:34:07,580 --> 00:34:14,560
And then I spent a long time going on vintage eBay fucking looking anywhere to buy all of

717
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,480
these books in the correct order.

718
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:21,360
And I think I got to maybe like book 17 and have now just fizzled out.

719
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,360
Yeah.

720
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:23,840
I've only fucking read two of them.

721
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,240
No space for them.

722
00:34:27,240 --> 00:34:33,280
I only read fucking two of them, but there's something about, um, about owning, having

723
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:40,360
a book that's something to do with one of your hobbies, especially something as big

724
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:45,520
for me as world of warcraft to then have, because so many people that I play with are

725
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:54,240
like proper nerds and I real decent people, but some of them are so more involved with

726
00:34:54,240 --> 00:34:58,740
the inner workings of world of warcraft than I could ever hope to be.

727
00:34:58,740 --> 00:35:01,360
And therefore they're the same with the law as well.

728
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:06,880
So they've read all the books and they fucking know everyone's names and why this happens

729
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,960
and why people do this and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

730
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:16,840
And having the ability to do that after trying to read books is like fucking hell.

731
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,020
That is, that is an undertaking.

732
00:35:19,020 --> 00:35:21,040
Trying to buy the fucking things alone is ridiculous.

733
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,760
Like some of these books are like over a hundred quid because they just don't fucking make

734
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:25,760
them anymore.

735
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:32,240
And like I say, they're to the point where they started bringing out, um, bringing out

736
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:36,640
some of the books where it was like three or four wedged into one rather than you having

737
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,680
to buy the individuals.

738
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:40,880
And it's just so much, so much effort.

739
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:45,760
But again, another cool thing, they'll probably be ornaments to be fair.

740
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,920
I probably won't even fucking read them.

741
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,400
They'll just sit on a shelf and just look pretty fucking cool ornaments.

742
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,640
It's just so stupid.

743
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,400
And this is, this is all, this is all from gaming.

744
00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:03,800
Like when you, this is what I mean when we started at the very beginning, gaming will

745
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:09,100
get you at some point in so many different ways in your life to the point where I'm a

746
00:36:09,100 --> 00:36:16,020
massive gamer, but now anything to do with gaming, you give me a fucking a ladle with

747
00:36:16,020 --> 00:36:17,360
Blizzard written on it.

748
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:18,360
I want the ladle.

749
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,480
I got no need for a ladle.

750
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:21,480
I'm not making soup.

751
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,680
I'm not pouring soup.

752
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,160
I'm not pouring it, but I'll have that ladle please.

753
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:27,160
Yeah.

754
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:28,160
You know what I mean?

755
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:34,760
Like they've really like with, um, uh, star Wars fans, you, you, I could take a shit on

756
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:37,760
the floor and spray star Wars on it.

757
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:38,760
Someone's going to want it.

758
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:39,760
Oh, totally.

759
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:43,520
So is it a one in six shit?

760
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:44,520
Yeah.

761
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:45,920
What a chances of me getting that one.

762
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,960
No one else in the world has any other 60 other people that have got that shit.

763
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:50,440
I've got that star wars shit.

764
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:51,440
I hate that shit.

765
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:52,440
Yeah.

766
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:53,440
Yeah.

767
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:54,440
Fucking true.

768
00:36:54,440 --> 00:37:00,400
And it's, um, and there are certain categories like you see selling previous podcasts that,

769
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:04,680
um, that star Wars people will buy whatever they'll buy.

770
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:09,000
They'll be 70 odd years old and they'll buy a star Wars kids backpack.

771
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:13,960
The minute you say that something's limited edition, that you haven't even got approved

772
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:14,960
to me.

773
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,960
That's limited edition.

774
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:22,640
So the collector's editions, I've got obviously the, um, assassin's creed shadows, collector's

775
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,000
edition that, that, that will come when that game releases.

776
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,680
Got a war, Ragnarok, Mirage.

777
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,240
Like I don't know how limited these are.

778
00:37:31,240 --> 00:37:33,960
It's not like they told, they said they're limited edition, collector's editions, and

779
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,440
there's only fucking 500 of them.

780
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,680
They just said that these are the ones that are going to come out.

781
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,760
But just that wording alone, collector's edition.

782
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,200
Oh, I need it.

783
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:45,200
Give me, give me that.

784
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,080
I've got no purpose for any of the stuff in here.

785
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:50,080
No purpose.

786
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,000
Probably only ever going to be my eyes and fucking a couple of the other couple of other

787
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,440
people that'll ever see it and I'll never sell any of it.

788
00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:02,800
But just trinkets man, like a fucking magpie gaming magpie.

789
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:03,800
Yeah.

790
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,320
We've just been to nerd base and you spent what fucking 20 quid on shit.

791
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:08,840
That's probably going to go in the bin.

792
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:09,840
Yeah.

793
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:10,840
Yeah.

794
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:11,840
Cause it gets wild on it.

795
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:12,840
Star Wars.

796
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:20,200
Yeah, the chance of winning like an Imperial guard and a stormtrooper that, you know, I

797
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,280
just fucking bit it.

798
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,560
And they do the smart thing of throwing the odds on the back of the box as well.

799
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:30,040
Like one in 73 chance and you go, Oh, so if you get it, you got a fucking hell of a one

800
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,040
of the rare ones.

801
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:32,040
One of the rare ones.

802
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:33,040
What I'm going to do with it.

803
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:34,040
God, I love this.

804
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,040
Yeah.

805
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:36,040
Nothing.

806
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,040
Put it on my shelf.

807
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,040
Yeah.

808
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:39,040
I do absolutely nothing.

809
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:47,640
I'm Q or whatever they are feather duster and that's as much as you're going to touch

810
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,640
it and play with it.

811
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:51,640
Yeah.

812
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,760
It's a strange old thing, but once you're in it, you're in it and you're fucking in

813
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:56,760
it with the money as well.

814
00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:01,680
You know, you're, you'd buy, you'd eat cans of soup for the rest of the year.

815
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:06,960
If you could get a Obi-Wan Kenobi signed Funko, which is probably what I'd done.

816
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,040
I love soup now.

817
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,040
I forget you've got one.

818
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:12,040
I've got so much soup.

819
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:18,520
I can do that fucking ladle that you bought.

820
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:24,160
You can, you can easily understand how in terms of an industry it makes the most money,

821
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:25,160
because what was it?

822
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:29,720
We, what was it was talking about in a previous episode that it's the film and music industry

823
00:39:29,720 --> 00:39:34,400
combined gaming makes more money by quite a lot.

824
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:35,400
Yeah.

825
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,840
It's a lot more than those two industries put together.

826
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:41,840
And yeah, when you look at the things like the most, even down to games now, 70 quid

827
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,320
for a game is like the industry standard.

828
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:50,600
Now even me being fucking 27, I remember when the, when the standard for a game was about

829
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,360
30, 40 quid, that was like the norm.

830
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,520
And most of the time you got a fucking physical game with that.

831
00:39:56,520 --> 00:40:02,360
Whereas a lot of times now it's, it's, it's a digital only format.

832
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:12,140
And to be young and try and get involved deeply into gaming must be so, so arduous just because

833
00:40:12,140 --> 00:40:15,800
of how fucking expensive that truly is.

834
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:19,360
Trying to get a PS five when they first release, if you've never owned a place dates or anything

835
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,560
like that, and that's your first console fucking good luck.

836
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:23,560
Yeah.

837
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,960
You just got to have fucking parents that are awesome.

838
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:27,960
Yeah.

839
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:28,960
Or rich.

840
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:34,680
I feel like that's why people in our situation, when you, when you get older and you start

841
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,000
earning your own money and you're, you're paying your own way through life.

842
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,480
Why if you've got a bit of spare dough, you start throwing it into the things that you

843
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,480
weren't ever allowed to get access to.

844
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:46,480
Yes.

845
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:51,000
I don't know if I was telling you, but I was in Smith's, Smith's toys and I ended up buying

846
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:56,520
a like ghosts from Call of Duty, a stand that you can put your controller on.

847
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:57,520
Yeah.

848
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,120
And I looked behind me and there's like just all kids there.

849
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:04,880
I'm fucking 46 years old still by it, but then I smiled.

850
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:05,880
I didn't feel embarrassed.

851
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:07,240
I thought, yeah, cause I've got the money.

852
00:41:07,240 --> 00:41:08,240
So fuck off bitches.

853
00:41:08,240 --> 00:41:11,160
You got parents to rely on.

854
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,160
I'll buy what I want when I want.

855
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:14,160
Um, yeah.

856
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,160
But it's great man.

857
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,160
Yeah.

858
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:22,560
So I don't think you're really, I don't know, do you ever like grow up like that or deny

859
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,640
yourself that, that pleasure must be, must be terrible.

860
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:31,600
Mustn't it, if you think like, I've got to pay for NCP parking during a week.

861
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:32,840
I'm not going to buy myself.

862
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:34,280
I've got to pay my Ulysses.

863
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:38,960
I don't, I don't ever see, um, I don't see gaming as something that's childish.

864
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:43,400
I don't see what we, what we do, um, as childish anymore.

865
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:50,040
I feel like I've also got to a point now where when I was younger and people would, would

866
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:55,000
take the piss out of, especially being younger in school and playing World of Warcraft, that

867
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,040
was just seen as like the penultimate of being fucking nerdy.

868
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,040
So everyone would take the piss.

869
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,120
If you and me were in school together, you were probably fucking taking the piss out

870
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:04,120
of me.

871
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,120
No.

872
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:06,120
And I'll be crying in the corner.

873
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:07,120
Without a doubt.

874
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:08,120
Without a doubt.

875
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:15,320
I mean, like my, so I was a little bit nerdy and I had a friend going through secondary

876
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,920
school who's known as Jason Beyer and then he was into Doom, like on PC.

877
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:25,120
I used to go around his house and I used to think, like we got on really well, but he

878
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:26,720
was a fucking nerd.

879
00:42:26,720 --> 00:42:28,640
Um, and he was sort of kid.

880
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:33,160
There's, you go around his house to play Doom on PC and he'd have three deaths and you're

881
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:34,160
only allowed one.

882
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,640
It was his house, his console, blah, blah, blah.

883
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,520
Um, but yeah, I always remember, like we got on really well.

884
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:43,880
We used to go around each other's house like daily, daily basis.

885
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:52,240
Um, and we, um, sort of split up as friends a little bit after or just before sort of

886
00:42:52,240 --> 00:42:53,240
the end of fifth year.

887
00:42:53,240 --> 00:42:58,480
I don't know what you class that these days for, but, um, I always remember laughing at

888
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,600
him and take, taking a piss out of him.

889
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:01,600
Not cause he was a nerd.

890
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:07,920
Cause when I walked downstairs to go home, I noticed on the, on the side cabinet, there

891
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:12,160
was a letter and it obviously come from his bank and it said, obviously as a kid at those

892
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,080
age, they call you master.

893
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,120
So it was master beta.

894
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:17,120
They call you master.

895
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:18,120
Yeah.

896
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:19,120
Yeah.

897
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,800
Used to get a letter from your bank leads bank building society master beta.

898
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:23,800
I'm not a baiter.

899
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:24,800
That was it.

900
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:25,800
I think that's where our friendship ended.

901
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,760
Cause I was, I would take a piss out of a little nerd.

902
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:29,760
It was horrible.

903
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:30,760
Can't after that was yeah.

904
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:31,760
Yeah.

905
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:32,760
Yeah.

906
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,520
All them three to one deaths fucking got to me.

907
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,920
I was like, you know, why can't I have more than one?

908
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:38,920
Yeah.

909
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,720
But, um, yeah, no, I definitely would have said the piss.

910
00:43:41,720 --> 00:43:43,320
I wasn't a bully at by any means.

911
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:49,680
I was sort of, um, I was sort of Indian crowds, but, um, I wasn't nerd, but I was definitely

912
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:54,960
a sporty outside type of player of, um, all sports.

913
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:59,800
You know, I remember another game in thing was we used to have BBC computers and that

914
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:00,800
was our IT.

915
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:04,560
I used to play, can't remember French game on it.

916
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,560
Like Tony and that's Tony enough.

917
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,120
And that's his shit.

918
00:44:08,120 --> 00:44:11,800
And I remember looking out the window and everyone's playing hockey and football and

919
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:13,400
I'd rather be out there.

920
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,400
That's what I want to be doing.

921
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:16,400
Yeah.

922
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,520
Um, she's probably still kind of true nowadays, but I know the difference between like, I

923
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:24,920
want to go and play rugby or I want to go, I want that time of, I want to immerse myself

924
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:25,920
into a different world.

925
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:26,920
Yeah.

926
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:27,920
Yeah.

927
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,640
I feel like I'm at a point now where it's sort of, if anyone, not that I think we'd

928
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:38,200
be on the point of like people taking the piss out of you because you, you game plus

929
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:43,960
I feel like we're far, far comfortable in our own skins to like, I don't give a fuck.

930
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:47,120
If you want to have a go at me because I'm playing world war, I thought D and D I don't

931
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:48,120
care.

932
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:54,440
But I also like to, I like to explain it to people that, that don't understand it.

933
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:59,520
I feel like that's why so many people still take the piss because you go, no, like you're

934
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,720
taking the piss because you don't understand it.

935
00:45:01,720 --> 00:45:02,720
Yeah.

936
00:45:02,720 --> 00:45:03,720
So let me explain it to you.

937
00:45:03,720 --> 00:45:06,480
If it's then not your thing, then you crack on, you continue taking the piss, but I'm

938
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,480
not going to care.

939
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,840
But normally those people that are taking the piss, once they understand what it is

940
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:15,920
that you're doing and why you do it, it tends to, to almost clicking.

941
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:20,000
Go, actually, no, they sound like they're actually having quite a lot of fun.

942
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:26,720
And like with the D and D stuff, I feel like there's so many people where from an outside

943
00:45:26,720 --> 00:45:30,600
looking in, they'll go, that is fucking nerdy.

944
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:31,920
I ain't ever doing that.

945
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,280
I'm not fucking doing that.

946
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:39,200
But when you actually get involved with it and you realize I'm just chilling around my

947
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:44,120
mate's house with all of my friends and we're just fucking pelting dice at each other and

948
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:50,880
then trying to fuck each other over in this, in this weird whimsical world that, that is

949
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:56,000
sadistic and horrifying and lovely at the same time.

950
00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:01,960
It's that, that fantasy of just being able to switch off for a minute.

951
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:02,960
Yeah.

952
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,560
And be able to, if I want to fucking bury my ax in your head, I can't do that in real

953
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:07,560
life nor would I want to.

954
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,320
It's not who I want to be.

955
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:16,320
However, on a tabletop, Ashley Harris Prince, if I want to put my fucking ax in your skull,

956
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:17,320
bang, I will.

957
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,360
I'm going to have to roll some dice for it first.

958
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,360
It's only a matter of time, isn't it?

959
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:22,920
No, we've got a truce going on.

960
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:23,920
Oh yeah.

961
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:24,920
We've truced it out.

962
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:25,920
Why are you winking at me?

963
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:26,920
No, no, no, no, no, no.

964
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:27,920
Cause he listens to this.

965
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,960
He'll listen to this and he'll think that we've got a thing going on.

966
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,200
I'm glad he listens to it because he hardly ever presents it.

967
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,440
Stop winking at me.

968
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,280
Yeah, all right.

969
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,800
No, no, we ain't.

970
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:44,560
There's a truce, there's a truce on that and me and him ain't going to attack each other

971
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,900
when it comes to, to DND.

972
00:46:46,900 --> 00:46:47,900
All right.

973
00:46:47,900 --> 00:46:48,900
Another wink.

974
00:46:48,900 --> 00:46:49,900
All right.

975
00:46:49,900 --> 00:46:50,900
Absolute bollocks.

976
00:46:50,900 --> 00:46:54,080
Ashley's going to get a middle part.

977
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:55,080
No, absolute bollocks.

978
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,040
We're going to, we're going to go do the patron now.

979
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,480
All right, you fucking nerd bastards.

980
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,440
Daryl, it's been an absolute pleasure.

981
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:02,440
No.

982
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,080
I'm sure people will listen to this and enjoy it.

983
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:05,080
The pleasure's been all mine.

984
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:10,200
I can't wait to go home and wait for this episode.

985
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:13,040
And whilst I do that, I'll probably watch it with transvestite Paul.

986
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:15,120
It's a great way to end it.

987
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:16,120
See you later everyone.

988
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:25,360
Bye bye.
