1:28

1:28
Please attention for the morning

1:33
following what the woman
1:35
at my high school sounded like. Beep.
1:37
Please listen to the afternoon
1:40
Just in that same perfect voice. I'm actually
1:43
going to visit my high school and wonder if she's
1:45
still running the desk. Why are
1:47
you visiting your high Who are you talking to? hanging
1:49
with some high school friends.
1:51
Friends in high school? Yeah. After
1:56
creator clash, my old art teacher, said
1:58
if you're... the area
2:00
which I will be she said she asked
2:02
me if I'd like to give a little
2:05
talk about career choices to the art
2:08
students did you also talk to them about potentially
2:12
getting dressed in his GED I'm
2:14
gonna see but usually they don't just hand
2:16
those out you have to you have to study for you have to take
2:18
the test you know I mean he's a good test
2:20
taker I mean he got the highest score
2:23
we we wrote a book a
2:25
while ago super mega
2:27
saves the troops it was a best seller in in our
2:30
eyes. And we had
2:32
a test.
2:33
We had a written
2:36
test, multiple choice, as well as
2:38
essay questions. And
2:41
Justin performed the best, which
2:43
meant that he knew our book
2:45
the most. And he had only read it the night before. Morning
2:48
of, actually. Morning of. So to be fair,
2:51
that might not mean he knew it the best. That meant he
2:53
just,
2:54
the information was fresh and he regurgitated it.
2:56
It's like cramming for a test. You don't actually learn the subject
2:58
or remember it. But it still didn't really work that
3:00
much it like sparingly worked Yeah,
3:03
it worked for like a few questions, but
3:05
not
3:06
to help me out on the test in general the problem is
3:08
you just memorize things and and if
3:10
it's a if it's a subject with where
3:12
it's more concept based than just like
3:16
Events, you know because like I
3:18
could cram for tests where the answers were like
3:22
When did when did this historical thing
3:24
happen? But if it's like if it was like a government or e-contest
3:27
where it's more about like the concept
3:29
of something I'd be like And
3:34
I get pretty piss-poor grades Yeah,
3:37
late on me. Did you just open that Red
3:40
Bull up just opened it? I might have
3:42
to go to making you want one Yeah I
3:44
might have to slip into something a little
3:46
more comfortable and grab myself a Red Bull. Hey,
3:49
man Do what you gotta do. Could you?
3:52
Give people your opinions on everything
3:54
going down in Ohio right now. What's going
3:56
down in Ohio? With the train derailment? Yeah,
3:58
all that, all that.
5:59
automotive speed to 30 miles per hour. I
6:03
think if a train wants to go 90 around that curve,
6:06
that's its right to do so. Conductors wanna
6:08
have some fun, get there faster, go for it. Sure,
6:11
it might derail every now and then, but, you
6:14
know. Shit happens. And
6:18
that's my take on Ohio. Ooh,
6:20
I forgot my Red Bull. Yeah, I forgot your Red Bull, buddy. Oh,
6:25
he forgot his Red Bull, So I guess I could talk a little more
6:27
about Ohio.
6:33
It is truly a tragedy.
6:37
The economic, not economic,
6:39
the environmental disaster taking
6:42
place in Ohio. And I know I was just
6:44
busting your balls, Ohio, but
6:46
it is very tragic and my heart goes out
6:48
to you.
6:51
Welcome back, buddy. to
6:55
something a little more comfy? Oh yeah. You
6:57
didn't look too comfy in that stuff you were wearing
7:00
earlier, so. No, I'm a lot more comfortable
7:02
in this now. I feel like I can actually
7:04
have a conversation and not be distracted. Finally.
7:07
By how uncomfortable I was. It looks scratchy.
7:10
It's not. No, not that. What
7:12
you were wearing earlier looked scratchy. It was. I
7:15
updated every one of my thoughts on Ohio. I
7:18
was saying it's kind of bullshit how, you
7:22
know, the government thinks that it
7:24
has the right to put regulations
7:28
never mind well they do have the right
7:30
for the AIDS thing but to put
7:32
regular bullshit regulations where it's like oh
7:34
around this curve train can
7:36
only go 30 miles per hour I think they should
7:38
be allowed to go however fast they want to go around the
7:41
curve a train train okay
7:43
okay
7:46
isn't there a slight possible chance
7:48
of derailment is I
7:50
mean this would be the first question that any
7:53
probably safety officer with it's the first question
7:55
that certainly comes to my mind. Ryan there's a possible
7:58
chance you get struck by an asteroid when you're
7:59
laying in bed tonight. Yeah, but there's
8:02
nothing I can do that specifically makes those
8:04
chances higher. Yes, there is. That
8:06
intentionally makes it, like what?
8:09
I think that intentionally makes the chances higher.
8:13
You could remove your roof. I
8:16
mean, it's gonna crash through the roof and kill me regardless.
8:19
The roof isn't gonna save me. I don't know, dude. I'm not
8:21
a physicist. You could just hit the
8:23
roof and bounce off. There is only one
8:25
recorded time in history where someone
8:27
actually got struck by a- by a meteor. They
8:29
exploded and died? No, she lived. How?
8:33
She- I think she was- How did it not blow her brain
8:35
completely through her skull? I think she was
8:37
on the toilet and it just went- Pfft! Oh
8:39
my god! There's a picture of her, uh...
8:43
That's just like one of those
8:45
like, look at my luck type of days.
8:48
You're taking a shit, you're old, like, you
8:50
said it was an old lady. You make it so
8:52
you're an elderly person, and
8:55
you get fucking taken out by an asteroid?
8:58
She lived.
8:59
Jesus Christ! It
9:02
fucked up her like side, but she was fine. I
9:05
imagine that... I mean that's a pretty cool thing
9:07
to have under your belt though, right? Being the
9:09
only person known to mankind that's
9:11
actually been struck by a meteorite and
9:14
survived? That's
9:16
a cool scar, but you wanna know how I got this scar? Space.
9:20
Probably hurts like hell though. Still to
9:22
this day. Would think that I pissed God off
9:24
because the chances of that happening are probably like
9:26
one in trillions you
9:28
think insurance covers
9:31
that for the house Asteroids
9:34
for health insurance Probably
9:37
not Prove
9:39
it I asked her it fell through your roof.
9:42
Oh She saved
9:44
the wow Yeah,
9:46
she's laying in bed, and she's got a big old bruise and
9:48
she's going ouch ouch Owwww!
9:52
Crashed through the roof of a farmhouse in Alabama, bounced
9:54
off a large wooden console radio and
9:56
hit Ann Hodges while she was napping on her couch.
9:59
It must be so confusing being woken up
10:01
by that. You're not gonna
10:03
think it was an asteroid. No, I probably
10:05
think it was like a gun. Sorry, I know
10:08
that the space heads out there are gonna get mad at me. Meteor.
10:11
Meteorite. Meteorite. Meteorite's
10:13
smaller than a meteor. Is meteor a meteorite? I
10:15
believe a meteor is when it's in space and
10:18
when it
10:19
comes into the atmosphere, it becomes a meteorite. If
10:21
I'm not mistaken. I might be mistaken. And
10:24
an asteroid is...
10:28
You know, I feel like I should if I took
10:30
a rock up into space would it become a Meteor
10:34
if I throw a rock in the air is in a meteorite
10:39
Doesn't come from space but technically it does come from
10:41
space. It's just a rock in the air is it
10:43
does does a meteorite have to come from space
10:46
into I
10:49
Want I want to know I want to be a little
10:51
bit smarter It's already hard
10:54
to be as smart as you and I are as youtubers,
10:56
but sorry podcasters
10:58
I gotta we gotta start using that a little more Podcasters
11:01
we keep saying we're youtubers. We're above youtuber
11:04
now. We're podcasters We
11:06
we don't do YouTube associate ourselves with with
11:08
the the filth of youtuber We
11:11
I'm all about you too. I
11:14
mean this podcast goes on YouTube, but
11:16
I mean I mean,
11:18
yeah, I'm gonna show up places, probably family
11:20
gatherings first to test out the waters of it
11:22
and announce that I am a podcaster. I would like
11:25
them to never refer to me as a YouTuber
11:27
or video content creator, which is even
11:30
more, I would say, detrimental
11:33
to my personal view on myself. I'll
11:35
take it one step further than podcaster,
11:37
comedian. Okay,
11:39
podcast comedian or a comedian that
11:41
has a podcast? Comedian that has a podcast. Oh,
11:44
like Burt Kreischer. or
11:47
Brendan Schaub. Dudes loved having
11:49
a podcast and then calling themselves a comedian.
11:52
It's also crazy that we still
11:54
use the term podcast. It really just stuck because
11:57
the whole point was the word broadcast, replacing
11:59
it for iPod podcast and
12:01
it's still just that's what stuck an
12:04
asteroid is a rocky body smaller
12:06
than a planet that orbits the Sun now
12:09
a meteor is a streak of light seen when a
12:11
meteoroid heats up in the atmosphere and a meteoroid
12:14
is a rocky metallic fragment of an asteroid
12:16
comet or planet and a meteorite is
12:19
a meteor fragment that reaches the ground
12:23
so a rock if you throw it up in the air
12:25
would not become a meteorite because it
12:28
was not a meteor to begin with. How
12:30
do I make it become a meteor? You
12:32
would have to get it. Take it to space? You'd have
12:34
to get it in orbit and then. Okay, how about
12:37
this? Imagine if I was Superman. I take
12:39
a rock, I fly it to space, I'm
12:41
holding it, I'm still holding it, I fly it back
12:43
from space, probably throw
12:46
it to the ground, then
12:48
pick it up and throw it up in the air. Is it a meteorite
12:50
then?
12:51
I don't see why not. I mean,
12:53
it technically checked all the boxes, right? Yep,
12:56
and who's gonna tell you you're wrong so do I know
12:58
the grass Tyson actually you know I mean Do I get like
13:00
a Nobel Peace Prize for figuring this out? I'm
13:03
bet your scientists never really thought to ask that question
13:07
So I think it's at least worthy of like an award or
13:09
something. We should see if we can get Neil deGrasse Tyson
13:11
on this podcast We know
13:13
we're done He could
13:15
tell you if you could get one probably I Think
13:18
he's just mansplained things to me I would
13:20
love to get him on this podcast and you and
13:22
I prepare these stupidest questions
13:25
beforehand. Well, he's been on Joe Rogan
13:28
Well, those are not a good question smart intellectual
13:31
discussion Yes, I'd
13:33
love to ask him just like about like the precipitation
13:35
cycle Just stuff that like you learn in like
13:38
second grade and we have no we
13:40
act like this is like mind-blowing to us And
13:42
he just has to explain the most
13:44
Juvenile asinine concepts. So
13:46
the nucleus is that this the
13:49
center of the... so
13:52
wait where is that again, Neil? Do
13:55
you think you'd actually go on a long
13:57
tirade explaining things to us. Yeah,
13:59
I... I like him talking
14:02
and saying things about space. I don't
14:04
like his attitude very
14:06
much. He's got a toot. His attitude needs a little
14:09
work. He's condescending. In my humble opinion.
14:11
Neil deGrasse Tyson,
14:13
fucking tighten your belt, buckle
14:17
up your boots, you know? Because
14:19
you're acting like a real jackass lately. Oh,
14:22
not lately, for the past few years. He
14:25
just kind of, I feel like he
14:27
takes
14:28
the wonder and excitement of things like
14:30
space and science and then just
14:32
kills it a lot. Like things he says on Twitter.
14:35
The stuff he says on Twitter, I'm like why? Neil,
14:37
like what's even the point in saying this? Do
14:40
we have an example? Yes. Matt,
14:43
find us an example. We
14:46
gotta call this rotten
14:48
phony out for
14:51
being such an asshole.
14:54
Fail blog. This is from cheeseburger.com.
14:57
10 infuriating times Neil deGrasse Tyson
14:59
went full condescending mode on Twitter. Listen
15:01
to this, Neil.
15:02
The world isn't big enough to contain Neil deGrasse Tyson's
15:04
ego.
15:05
That much my tiny brain can comprehend. Uh...
15:10
Let's see. He's
15:12
just looking...
15:15
He has to probably scroll
15:17
through the article part before
15:19
getting to the list. Unless it's... The
15:22
whole article is a list. So you have to scroll through
15:24
the whole thing. Okay, they're using some
15:26
just shitty examples where it seems like he's just
15:29
making a joke that's not landing Well,
15:32
maybe that's all it's bad. I don't is that he's just
15:34
in he's just awkward socially
15:37
Sure, he has a booming voice and he comes off as charismatic
15:40
because he's excited about what he's talking
15:42
about I mean
15:45
See it's tweets like the leap day is not
15:47
misnamed. We're not leap or the leap day
15:49
is misnamed We're not leaping anywhere. The calendar
15:51
is simply and abruptly catching up with Earth's orbit
15:54
I don't think that's very condescending. I think it's more of... It's
15:56
like a fun little fact like you would like
15:59
a middle schooler would be Ooh. Okay, now
16:01
he crossed a line. What? Sometimes
16:03
I wonder if we'd have flying cars by now, had civilization
16:06
spend a little less brain energy contemplating football.
16:08
Now he's crossed a line. I mean, real talk?
16:12
I don't know, football does do good for,
16:14
uh,
16:18
the economy maybe? Probably not.
16:22
Do they do? I'm sure they give to charity.
16:24
The NFL has to give to some sort of charity.
16:27
Probably one of those charities. Super Lego, they donate a lot to us. Or
16:29
they donate water or something. If they
16:31
don't, they could hit
16:34
me up. They
16:36
could give to me is what I'm saying. Is that
16:38
what like, instead of giving to like a charity,
16:40
they could,
16:42
I mean, technically it would still be charity. I'm still in need
16:44
of,
16:45
no one's ever not in need of money. I
16:48
think the question then depends on like, are
16:50
you, like, what
16:53
is, what is a need? Is a need meaning to be
16:55
necessary or is need more like, can you want
16:57
something you need? Can you need something you want? It's
17:00
very semantic, so.
17:02
Yeah. Did you figure out your,
17:04
did you figure out your little conundrum there, buddy?
17:08
I just don't want to talk about Neil anymore. Okay. Okay.
17:10
Did you see something? No, I just don't want to get into it. All
17:13
right. You want to talk about Bill?
17:17
Bill. Bill. Bill.
17:20
Bill. Bill. Bill. Bill.
17:23
Bill. Bill. Bill. Bill.
17:26
Bill. and your brain makes
17:29
the word change into other words the more you watch it.
17:31
Like mayo, pale, all sorts
17:33
of great stuff. It's
17:35
really interesting how your brain works that
17:37
way. It's really quite fascinating. Bill
17:39
is, Bill Nye, he's
17:41
an atheist, okay? And, uh... What?
17:44
Yeah. So is Neil
17:46
deGrasse Tyson. That
17:49
was the fact that I just stumbled upon, which is why I
17:51
wanted to stop talking about him. I don't want to give an atheist
17:54
any ounce of platform here. like
17:56
that richard dawkins fella
31:40
Let's
32:00
go
32:05
ahead and just get right into it. That's
32:11
good. Alright
32:16
guys,
32:18

32:20
Thanks. I'm out of the bowl.
32:23
Damn dude, you chugged that bowl. I
32:26
needed the energy. I'm popping off now, I'm
32:28
popping off. How's
32:31
it feel? Ryan, I'm dying. No, no. You just took a- Ryan, I
32:33
think I'm dying. You just took a popper. It
32:36
just feels a little warm in your head, right? Am I dead? No, it doesn't feel a
32:38
little bit warm, right? In your ears and your head. Am I dead?
32:40
You're not dead. You're
32:41
still on the Super Megacast with your friend
32:43
Ryan McGee. Look, look at- Come
32:46

32:49

32:51
Wave to him. Don't- I
32:53
don't know what you're doing. Just
32:57
yeah, see see we're friends yep
33:02
Saw demons man
33:04
hasn't popped off and well you popped off recently
33:07
Well, maybe you're popping off a little too much. No
33:09
that that's the first time I popped off since uh
33:12
The day we recorded cool dog podcast. Oh
33:14
really? Yeah, my head
33:17
is pounding really
33:20
It's it's what I love about poppers is
33:23
it's the feeling of standing up too quickly Put
33:25
in a bottle. What's not to love? You
33:28
know Make sure your head really
33:30
go boom boom boom. I
33:32
like it There's a man knocking on a door
33:34
on inside my head And I'm
33:36
not making sense. I popped off too hard. No,
33:39
you're fine I just I was personally
33:41
thinking about how I I didn't like
33:43
the Italian place that we ordered from Oh, I
33:45
need to I haven't even eaten mine yet. I got a
33:47
Reuben Well,
33:49
it's probably my fault. I got spaghetti and meatballs. Oh,
33:52
yeah. I'll tell you, man, that place didn't
33:54
look too good. It kind of looked like a cheap Italian place. Yeah,
33:57
it looks like a prep kitchen Italian
33:59
type shit.
39:53
Do
40:00
I have herpes, Ryan?
40:01
But statistically,
40:03
at least one person at the super megaplex
40:05
or two has it. I
40:08
mean, I've had a, if you've ever
40:10
had a cold sore, it means you have it. I
40:13
have had cold sores before, so I definitely, I
40:16
have the virus in me. I've got the dog
40:18
in me, as the kids say. And by
40:20
the dog, I mean herpes. But genital
40:22
herpes and herpes
40:24
of the mouth, they're very different things. Yes.
40:28
HPV, I believe? Well, there's
40:30
uh... HSV1 and 2. Right.
40:35
So, have you ever had a cold sore? Mm-hmm.
40:38
Uh, no. A kanker sore. Like, inside right
40:40
here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ketchup burns. Hate
40:43
it. Ketchup burns? Mm-hmm. You got ketchup
40:45
burns?
40:46
That ketchup burns. Oh, I thought you said- Or
40:48
makes to feel as though it is burning.
40:51
I thought you meant like you got burns in your mouth from ketchup.
40:53
I was boiling ketchup one time, like I
40:55
normally do. wanted to taste it, see how it was
40:57
doing. To make my famous sauce, just
41:01
Heinz ketchup
41:02
and store-brand ketchup put together. They
41:04
have such distinct flavors that it combines
41:07
to create one really good ketchup. It is
41:09
good, but you gotta remember to blow, you know,
41:12
when you take a spoon of it out. Nothing's
41:14
better. Seriously, like anyone out
41:16
there, legitimately try this. This
41:18
isn't a joke. It's actually fucking
41:21
good. You need to go out, get
41:25
spaghetti noodles,
41:26
break them apart, maybe just
41:29
they're hard, don't throw them in a pot
41:32
or prepare them or whatever. Break them apart
41:34
and then just squirt ketchup in it
41:37
and then just eat them like they're french fries. It
41:39
is delicious. It's fucking amazing.
41:41
I do it when I come over to your place
41:43
and we hang out. Put some Parmesan cheese on that too.
41:46
I like it just straight. Yeah. Just
41:48
the noodles, dip it in ketchup. Well, what I
41:50
like to do
41:51
is I'll take one of the raw
41:53
spaghetti noodles. Yeah. And you know, it's firm,
41:56
it's stiff. I'll dip it in ketchup and then I'll just suck
41:58
the ketchup off, kind of like a
53:59
short history to me that's
54:03
longer than any chapter of our book I
54:07
don't know about that is it we don't have a 20
54:09
we might have one that's that's that's that's
54:11
about 25 yeah
54:13
I don't really care about this research page on
54:16

54:18

54:44

54:48

54:53
