Jake’s Takes Volume 5 (Premium E282)
Jake’s Takes and Liv’s Gives makes its triumphant return to the podcast. This time around, there are no bumpers in this bowling alley as Travis and Julian are nowhere to be found. Liv and Jake throw strike after strike (or gutter ball after gutter ball if you dislike the ‘take’) in this meandering episode where they discuss everything from the Sonic Movies to petty drama between Canadian pollsters. Come for the takes about the Ghostbusters video game but stay for the takes about what’s wrong with ankle socks. Also a more in-depth conversation about Ship Shows.
Thanks for subscribing to QAA on patreon.

coming back for some takes and givs for the soul
Finally got to come back and listen to the take about severance - finished it last night :) having to skip part of this episode encouraged me to finally watch it Also wasn't 1899 where "ship show" came from?
Archive81 is based on an audio series that's much better than the show. Also by season 2 I think it's extremely obvious why they won't find that
Jake has lost his damn mind in this one, how can True Detective season 1 possibly be a Ship Show? Come back Julian, we need you!
JAKE asked what is the right wing equivalent of QAA? I’ll say it again. It’s Libs of TikTok
About a month ago I heard someone on tiktok mention a particular type of trans influencer they'd like to emulate and they mentioned Liv. Pronounced her last name wrong too hahaha. But I was like "from QAA? Wtf?!" I this person didn't know you from here because they'd clearly never heard Liv say her name.
i forgot ship shows was a term Jake made up, and spent 30 frustrating minutes trying to find the definition online. Also, I've always imagined Jake looks like Eugene Mirman.
I also did this gd...
GenXer! I knew the words to the MyBuddy commercial. Loved the 90's. I listen with my GenZ daughter
Geriatric GenXer here (1968)! I’m neither MAGA nor BlueAnon, but I definitely see both in my age group. I’m deeply disappointed that my generation went hardest for Trump in 2024. I loved the comments about trying to adopt Canadian accents. I’m currently binging a lot of Canadian comedy (Trailer Park Boys, Shoresy, Letterkenny, rewatching KITH) and I’m definitely catching myself using Canadian slang and accents.
Sonic slander is the worst thing this podcast has ever done. I’m disgusted and disappointed. Sonic > Mario
Gen X here. 1966. Loved the 70s and lived thru the 80s in bands. Still play guest spots on drums, if they're short. Avid gamer- open world stuff - and love the pod. Great work you two.
Please comment on this next Jake’s Takes https://consequence.net/2025/04/weezer-wife-scott-shriner-shot-by-police-attempted-murder/
Liv and Jake are a dream team actually. I like their dynamic
I find Liv's comment that if someone doesn't recognise them must not be a regular listener very weird. I've been listening for YEARS and I already made up an image of all the hosts in my mind, the thought of seeing what they really look like freaks me out, not sure why. I've only ever seen their Twitter profiles and their bits in the Q documentary and I have absolutely 0 idea what Liv looks like. I can't be the only weirdo out here, right?
Babylon 5
My boomer relatives have brightly coloured iPhone cases because their eyes are going and it's easier to find. Except for my mom, who has a tasteful brown phone wallet that she's always losing and then panicking about
I have an idea what Jake looks like in my mind (which is a fun kind of cartoon persona) and I don’t want to break my mental image of Jake with the real Jake so I avoid seeing what Jake looks like IRL.
I’m definitely going through the nostalgia phase Jake mentions around min 45. I’ve become obsessed with collecting VHS tapes, especially ones from childhood. Land Before Time, Roger Rabbit, etc. They give me happiness in these times of nuttery.
Unlikely Jake will see this but there is an Optimus Prime Ghostbuster
Liv agar
I’m a couple years older than Jake and completely agree on his summary of sock fashion in the 90s
Severance spoilers are 45 sec long
Please more Jake’s Takes and Liv’s Gives!!!
Worst episode yet. I enjoyed it.
Wow I can’t believe I actually know all the Saturday morning cartoon references Jake was making!!!!!
The amount of people (myself included) who have square/cube related Salvia trips never fails to amaze me.
Got some the Link to the Get low version?

I still don’t understand what a ship show is! li’l help?
Dark lit show, could take place on a ship but doesn’t have to. Is very binge-able.
I liked sonic. I had all the systems tho so I’m like privileged. I liked the sounds in it.
As a millennial I have curated my Gen X husband into an elder millennial but sometimes his friends will say the wildest blueanon things lmao
Someone really got rich by telling Mark Zuckerberg to dress like he’s in FaZe Clan
I wanna reassure Jake the millennials are here, and this one also likes ninja turtles
Series finale =/= season finale fyi (no shade, love me Giv and Takes)
In response to Jake's comments on Gen X. I'm Gen X, and I'm actually not a Blueanon person or MAGA weirdo. And I credit this to transing my gender at 40.
This episode is boomer propaganda
My dog is one of those stereotypical terrifying murder breeds. I have to shoo the kitty away from her food every morning, and she’ll hide behind my legs until I do 😂
Thank you for this episode! Can we get a regular Jake's Takes, Liv Gives podcast? Please?
Most of nursing is just me asking people when they last took a shit
My dog passed this week & I am so glad to have a fucking stupid episode to listen to instead of something depressing
Sincere condolences about your dog friend… :(
My Buddy!!! 😂😭
Kid sister! 🤣😂
This was everything 🙌
I always felt like Sonic was the one with the more devoted fanbase, like sure Mario has more mainstream recognition but it’s always Sonic that have people talking about the games, the setting etc… Also Liv Agar…
Elder Gen Z here
Need more Jake's takes liv's gives! Need this kind of escapism in my life rn. Also have to shout out Farscape as the top sci-fi ship show of all time
Rip all the duct tape!!!
Guuuuys you need to get Kat Abughazelah on one of your eps. It’s huge that she’s running for congress and I think your platform would give more people the courage to get involved in politics.
I was just listening to her on an episode of Panic World.
I’m the Jillian who requested takes on ship shows!!! Thank you so much Jake 😭😭 also does anyone remember which episode had the og ship show discussion?
so funny hearing Jake pine for Sonic drive in lmao
First time, long time Gen X Canadian here - how she going? Liv please stop indirectly attacking the CRTC - I endorse them as the reason we’re not even more American.
That outro song fucking got me...💀
No. I’m a late boomer. And I’ve been here for years. So that.
I’m 30, and when I was younger my mom was very insistent that I wear no-show socks. I found them annoying because I didn’t like my shoelaces (or even the edges of my shoes sometimes) hitting my ankles, and I figured (correctly, I think) that no one actually gave a shit about whether or not you could see someone’s socks. I feel vindicated by those zoomers and their long-socked views.
Im 41 and my whole childhood and through my teen years I was wearing high socks and was super into bright colors and patterns etc. I didn’t wear little bootie socks until I moved to nyc and experienced true nasty humid summer for the first time. But yeah was also obsessed with my socks not showing! Wearing socks that people could see with a dress/skirt - the horror! I’m so glad it doesn’t matter anymore. Wear socks however you like!
“White people thought it was acceptable to do acoustic covers of rap” 🙄
So, FYI, “He” in Pinyin (the most common romanization system for Mandarin nowadays) is pronounced like “huh.” The -ui in He Jiankui’s name rhymes with “way.”
Finally another Jake's Takes!! I would pay extra to have these at least monthly, if not weekly.
First Jake's takes Liv's gives I've caught but gotta say, I'd take more of them if you'd give them. Love the banter and chance to suspend reality a little bit.
omg duarte mentioned!!!!
Jake channeled Little Nicky when he said 10 million dollars
We'll be filing a class action lawsuit for all patron members for mating us listen to the Zuck sing "Till the sweat drips down my balls". Please let the legal team know if you too have been harmed by the recklessness of Jake and His Takes.
That was ZUCK?!
Ah yes, we Canadians very well known for our consumption of scotch eggs 😂 love you Jake
Please let Jake and Liv off leash more often! This was a nice break from depressing stuff. Looking forward to volume 6
Pure Jake thinking a Dalmatian would be chill because it’s famous looking 😂
Alice in Borderland is Japanese, Jake. (I don't know if there's a korean version, but the original manga is definitely Japanese, as is the Netflix show.) It's great, too, though much more of a straight ship show/psychological metaphor kind of thing than a social satire like Squid Game
A friend of mine growing up had a dalmation and it was terrifying.
I never understood why my dad hates dogs so much until I learned that he was a paperboy and was chased and attacked by various dogs. A neighbor’s Dalmatian in particular gave him a lot of grief.
Capricorn One! Jake’s idea for a false flag movie reminds me of Capricorn One, which is a 70s movie (starring OJ Simpson) about a group of astronauts who are told they will be part of a fake mission to Mars. The astronauts are not happy that they will be forced to go into hiding for years and things become… complicated. This would make for a great movie review episode tbh.
It's also similar to Rubicon, which was a fucking awesome ship show.
I'm sorry but POE 1 is better than POE 2
Liv Agar
I also had a John Mayer phase but I've come around on him again because of his guitar playing with Dead & Co Livin la vida agar
Jake's Takes Weekly please we need this
What the fuck is a “ship” show? Liv Agar
same question
really loved the takes in this episode but I have to say I started taking Bagoobygah 3 years ago and it completely changed my life. you should try it!
Resubscribed for this. I liked how Jake’s version of events is John Mayer losing his place *before* making eye contact with a belting Jake in the front row rather than after.
Jake you should mount the proton packs in lockers like how they store them at the HQ in the movie.
Gonna turn my brain off and listen to my aunt and unc talk about absolutely nothing for an hour and a half, sheer bliss.
it was really kind of Liv to not just completely roast Jake for being into John Mayer
The Lost room!!!! Yessssss
Elder Gen X here who thought that the no-socks-in-mesh-shoes Miami Vice vibe from the mid 80s was the pinnacle of cool…
Gen Xer here. We are an interesting crew. First wave Gen x is my sister’s crew. Born in the late 60’s early 70’s. Very spoiled. Very influenced by Reagan. I’m middle wave born in 74. We are the grunge and hard core rap age group. Much cooler. Much more likely to have been in jail. Very much influenced by Rage Against the Machine, the Iraq war and LA Riots. My age group is seriously raising the BEST kids because we saw some shit and were raised a little feral.
Much more likely to have been in jail 😂
Shadow wasn't made as the opposite of some guy he was made in a lab as the ultimate life form and coincidentally looked exactly like (and had the same powers as) a hedgehog that wasn't born yet for some reason I mean uh. liv agar
Hey Jake, professional art installer here. Hit me up if you would like one of your Proton Packs installed.
Who says Americans don’t have culture? I grew up 1.5k+ miles from Jakes Takes and I, too, put my socks on just the tip.
Genuinely enjoy this kind of content. More of it, please. Liv Agar
I was made fun of all the time for wearing my socks too high back in the mid 00s. If I could have transposed my same self forward in time to be a teen in 2020s I would’ve been dressed cool af. My Converse sneakers got roasted back then too.
Eely Elon?
Isn't deux ex machina more like a perfect, improbable series of events that allows the hero to escape what appeared to be an impossible situation (i.e. Dexter), rather than a twist at the end?
Correct. A synonymous term would be "divine intervention" or maybe "God's hand." It's when a seemingly impossible or nearly-impossible thing (the "Deus") arises out of ("ex") the predictable machine of reality ("Machina"). I went to private school up until I was expelled in 9th grade, and we had Latin for two years. It was the only language class that I LOVED going to. It just *made sense*. It is a very simple language without many ways of describing things. Like it's not ideal for telling stories or recalling a beautiful memory, but it's very modular and easy to construct and it's almost like it's pre-programmed into our brains. It clicks right away if you have a good teacher.
Give Agar
Reporting in as an overlooked millennial who gets all Jake's references but refuses to use Twitter. Love seeing the random chaos of Jake's Takes/Livs Gives
Liv agar again and again
I am superpsyched about MC Paul Barman, although i don't understand how I only recently found out about this lyrical LEGEND. Found out about him through RAP Ferreira's various projects, who also rules.
Wait, where the instrumental rap songs supposed to be good? It just occurred to me to wonder, because like, I thought they were HILARIOUS, especially the straight out of Compton one. Like, the obvious and severe tonal dissonance between the lyrics and music was hysterical to me. Was that not on purpose?
"Ship Show" has no meaning to me anymore. You're just describing "An Show"
This episode is really giving black cat and orange cat vibes.
Liv Agar
Also fyi to QAA listeners Will Sommer is now writing and podcasting for The Bulwark. Today he was reporting on possible reparations for J6 insurrectionists
I was in a few conflict zones. We didn’t need to poop on tables or wear capes.
lol, bad take about Sonic, the sega genesis had taken a significant market share from Nintendo for a while, Sonic played faster, had more complex music, it was actually competitive for a good while. I think that ended with the Super Nintendo, don’t know that one off the top of my head and I’m not gonna research it. But yeah, no, Sonic was very popular in the early 90s
Yeah, I was always more of a Nintendo kid personally, but I knew lots of people who were into Sonic
Julian Feeeeeeld
FYI - Archive 81 is based on a podcast which does actually finish the story.
Holy shit, Skankin' Pickle mentioned! Deeeeeeep cut
Whats the deal with Sonic advertising in markets where there is none? When I was living in Colorado, albeit years ago, there would be commercials all the time for Sonic, but at the time there wasn't a Sonic within driving distance.
Yes. I feel this is true in most parts of southern CA too. I grew up watching Sonic commercials and never had Sonic until I visited Arizona. I think their advertising department sucked or something
Old baby sitter died on one of those 9/11 flights that was real. She is dead. And pops worked in them in 93
Will this podcast ever do anything about the link between qanon and the far right and the genocide in gaza? Seems like you guys are dancing around the topic. I'd love for an episode about that considering the fact that israel has become a domestic political battle. It's time guys don't you think?
Liv perfect point. Lived in Mexico for years my dog off leash totally trained and chill. Then in California they are all these fancy pups and the owners have no control. But after years never using a leash and not getting into a fight these other dogs are vicious and I blame the owners.
woah adoseofbuckley mentioned .. haven’t heard that name in a long time
Love Jake’s Takes and Liv’s Gives! Have to disagree with you though: the ending of Dark was trash. They completely lost it and it was plot holes express. Defs a ship show, though
Such a strong start in season 1
In cycling culture there is a really strange diss. I wear ankle socks and pure cyclists who see me on the road call me a “triathlon cycler”. Cause the socks for “pure cyclists” should be higher. But I always think wouldn’t that mean I am 3 times more athletic than you. Strange beef.
There's a UCI road racing rule against having socks too high, so the thing to do is be right on that line.
This was definitely a very fun episode. Unhinged.
You should do an episode on Trader Joe’s it is basically a cult but delicious. The Facebook page for employees only is wild. Good food though. Also the only Jack n the Box in Mexico was shut down cause the guy made his own ranch dressing and didn’t use their corporate one. Never tried it.
DID HE CUM IN IT
I thought about this just the other day. It feels like Americans get food poisoning all the time? Like something that just HAPPENS to people every now and then like getting a cold? It feels like you always hear Americans go "Sorry, can't stream today, got food poisoning. Here's a funny story about something that happened when I had food poisoning! Oh I used to love that resturant but last time I went I got food poisoning." I've never had food poisoning? And it's not like I'm some germaphobe. I'll eat trash. Sniff test. 5 second rule.
Alice in Borderland is a manga.
I love these eps
Prolly been posted, but the raptors in the Jurassic Park novel definitely did not fly.
Came here to see if my young Gen X-er memories of a book from 30 years ago were that far off from reality. Glad the ol’ brain is still working. (Probably because I never smoked salvia, lol.)
Can’t wait for volume 6!
jake is goated
I’m a julian bias but the dynamic on Jake’s takes/Liv’s gives is unbeatable
Liv Agar
Jake buried his proton packs under concrete in his basement like John Wicks guns
Absolutely love The Lost Room. Jake has impeccable taste.
Came here to say that, I thought I was the only one who remembered it
I love how much Jake loves commercials and advertising in general. It’s like all marketing is targeting him specifically, it’s beautiful.
Jake the reason millennials aren’t messaging you when you make millennial references is because millennials don’t message anyone
Love the Rio da Young OG shoutout Jake!!
🎶 my buddy my buddy my budddddy and meeee 🎶
Kid sister
This episode is the most unhinged yet somehow thoughtful episode ever. Thank you for your primo takes Jake and Liv 👌🏻
Damn, masters is pretty damn good
I love this episode because it’s like a younger dad and his daughter having a podcast and they have a really healthy relationship.
More of this!
I would listen to 3 straight hours of this. Jake you should stream on Twitch
@LivAgar The music yt channel you referenced was ADoseofBuckley's (sp?) Musical Autopsy series
I think elder gen z is the biggest QAA demographic
Due to the particular year and suburb I was born in, I heard Dynamite Hack’s boyz in the hood cover before the original
I had no idea that acoustic covers of rap songs was a sincere thing. I've heard Ben Folds cover of Bitches Ain't Shit and Alanis Morrisette's cover of My Humps, but those are definitely parodies.
Alanis doing Fergie isn't a parody of anything, that's just a straight cover. Ben Folds' version of Bitches Ain't Shit is certainly intended as parody - but, imo, such is the issue with the acoustic covers in question too. idk it's just like 😬 soOoOo... what (or who) exactly are we satirising here, fellas?
I would love to hear Jake's take on the 2003 movie 'The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.'
Gen X. Fuck have we been through it.
Whatever.
Big POE 1 / 2 fan, very appreciative of external r/pathofexile being melted takes b/c they're all out of their gourds and need to chill out. liv agar
Millennial here, and I found myself nodding a little too aggressively when you started describing the short socks, Jake. Haha this episode is fabulous.
They forgot about the lady sock phenomenon of only half wearing the sock then tucking the loose extra into the top of the sock. Then it would shimmy down and had to be fixed throughout the day
This is an all-time Jake’s takes. Easily in the top 5.
Sonic was the underhog
The ship show definition is infinitely expansive. It encroaches more and more each time it's brought up
Can confirm as the parent/wrangler of a 6 and 3yr old, I've had to watch the sonic trilogy a hundred times. They're ok, for the most part. The sonic movies, to clarify. My children more than ok, for the most part.
Lovely
Enjoy DARK with subtitles, the English dub doesn't match the emotional depth of the characters.
Necessary, gotta hear that "dunkel"
I agree jake trader joes is garbage
This episode proves that there needs to be a parent in the room. We can't let the children have free reign over the podcast
For years Call of Duty releases rotated between 3 different studios, with different direction and art styles, so there actually was more of a reason to purchase each game. Since Warzone came out it's become more homogonized tho
Gen X here. Leftist recovering heroin and cocaine addict who’s been to jail. Haha. Jake described me in this podcast.
What the hell is a ship show again?
It’s a Jakeism from February this year (I think). Basically a mystery box show with an uncanny atmosphere that feels off kilter and claustrophobic- similar to being stuck on a ship. Hence a ‘ship show’. It does not need to take place on an actual ship.
My fiancé just brought up that we should go to the Seattle Museum of Pop Culture while we’re up there this weekend and I said “I won’t look into it because I don’t want to know what’s there before we go” and now I listen to this episode and I know 2 things there
Sonic Adventure 2: Battle best video game ever made
GenX former Christian Nationalist, so just grateful someone will cover the crazy Christians. Was a Creationist & believed Carl Sagan was an agent of Satan, so sad to see my delusional subculture come to govern the country. We suck!!
I went to school in the UK in the early 00s and it was really uncool to show your socks
The sock thing really hit home with me. Thanks for bringing this up.
Can’t wait for Vol 6
lol wtf Jake, the raptors don’t literally fly at the end of the Jurassic Park novel. Grant observes that they seem to have an instinct to migrate, but they don’t FLY
Yes thank you!!!
thank you two so much for making this episode. also thanks for bringing up chaos magick (totems / grant morrison) please fit one chaos magick reference every episode thank you
Check out the back catalog for the Kek Chaos Magick episode
I propose Jake’s Takes, Liv’s Gives, View’s Hues ( color commentary on current events), Feelds’ Yieldses ( focus tbd), Kelly on the Telly, Messy with Mezei, and the Good, Bad and Brad.
I liked this. Ad yeah, all of us GenXers are a little scarred, a little fucked up. No wonder we're largely responsible for the enshittification of everything (Joe Rogan? Fellow GenX. Jordan Peterson? Early GenX). We have reasons, but sorry nonetheless.
Loved this one! I hope Julian feels better soon.
I just needed to state that i had a pit/Dalmatian mix. He was such a baby that a raccoon beat his ass
Liv Laugh Love Agar
Okay that's a good one
Also, could someone please give me the tl;dr of Jake's definition of a ship show? Or remind me of the ep where it comes up and he explains?
Ghostbusters is invoked at 2:38
Sad to hear the QAA hosts cowardice on the pitbull question
what exactly is a ship show?
If you find out please tell me. Google is zero help.
This was fun. Sometimes a podcast can be two folks yapping about the stuff that catches their interest in that moment.
Liv, your thirties will be so much better than your twenties. I have known very few people that think their twenties were better, and the people who do are fucking miserable. I'm in my early thirties and somehow it's only gotten better, even as the world has gotten worse my personal life is so much less garbage.
Yo, wait for ya 40s. Chill and wisdom, but your knees hurt and you have no retirement savings still.
I love you liv lol
Liv agar
Jake you should check out gmac cash, bfb da pack man, clooner, 42dugg & vezzo
Cliff Cash for president! 🇺🇸
I literally just got all my ankle socks and then found out it wasn’t cool! But it looks weird to wear the vans that are really low topped and have huge socks sticking out… what’s wrong with ankles?! Is this the 1800s?!
Elder Millennial reporting for duty with no socks
I'm a late millennial but can confirm I was wearing child size nikes w/ no socks when this episode dropped
Are we going to address Jake saying ghostBUSTers? Also, Liv Agar.
Never once do the raptors fly in the books. Liv Agar.
Liv Agar

As a fellow Midwest Millenial, I still feel unfettered embarrassment if my socks are showing. How DARE people know that I wear socks 😂
Jesus Christ a Skankin' Pickle reference in the voice of trump
LFG
I'm waiting for Segas Shin Megami Tensei movies. Now that would be crazy
I know the Canadian “eh” is often credited to the French influence, but if you go to Dundee, Scotland you’ll hear it said the exact same way. Also “aboot” etc is a very Scottish/northern English pronunciation.
we do it in Australia too, 'ey?
GinandJuice.mp3 by Phish according to Napster (but actually by the Gourds)
“My Buddy” instantly triggered the jingle in my head, omg
Same
I would pay double for weekly Jake's Takes and Liv's Gives
Has anyone ever felt as good about 'bustin as Jake does?
I was living in costal North Carolina in 2013. A guy came in, ball cap, sunglasses to get a side of mahi mahi. Started talking to him, when I got done wrapping up his fish he handed me his card, and it was Bradley Cooper. His mom had a house near buy and he was there on vacation. Dude was nice, and tipped well but to me, he just looked like every other guy in North Carolina
What the hell is a side of mahi mahi
The posh accent = proper is both of you inheriting centuries worth of deeply entrenched classism. Posh English is RP, Received Pronounciation, as in received from the crown, the king/queen of England. Children in education were abused across the empire for improper pronounciation. To this day the wrong accent of English can prevent you from getting a job. I often find it funny that americans find british accents 'proper' english. As both british and american english are derived, and have moved away from, the form of english they shared upon the original occupation of the americas. They're both just dialects/isoglosses of English, itself one of many derivations of other Proto-Indo-European isoglosses, there is no true English.
Case in point US Presidential adviser Fiona Hill - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tees-58928506
This is a campfire to refill your HP before continuing the simulation 😭
I have never felt more seen than when I heard Jake's rant about what was chic in sock culture circa 1995. Can confirm that in Australia we also rocked the no-sock look, sometimes pulling ordinary socks on, then folding them down over the foot to be worn surreptitiously.
Oh, great! It's Liv!
I got…Trav’s Favs or Trav’s Haves, Julian’s Bullions, Brad’s Fads. I’m a fan of Annie’s Cranny but the double entendre is a bit rough. Someone please open a curio / antiques / book shop called Annie’s Uncanny
it was Logan's Slogans/Travis's Savages (I can't remember whether he was on JTs v2 or v3 tho)
#1 Jake stan
Can we also get "Brad adds" in the mix as a treat?
Jakes wonderland of a body reminded John Mayer of the lyrics.
Fringe. Great ship show.
#genxers4livagar
Dynamite Hack did the rap to acoustic type thing in the 90s
Giv Agive…?
I TWITTER DMED YALL TO TALK AB SONIC 3 and this is making my entire day
Oh God, Gen Xers by and large are just Boomer Lite now....and half of them are falling for AI or pyramid schemes. At 45 I got too old and chubby for people to consider me relevant so it's all middle fingers and frolicking from here on out! (Don't have a proton pack, but I do have a 1st edition D&D complete set)
So so much boomer lite. I say as an X.
Jake's toques
also my mum (RIP and bless her) was so opposed to US imperialism she would correct me if I ever said "zee". I STILL habitually call it "Dragonball Zed" and honestly just sort of don't have the heart not to now that she's passed. I did put my foot down with her over Jay-Z, though!!!
Jay-Zed is a great name for a Canadian rapper, though.
Wait a moment... All the pollsters got the Saskatchewan election prediction wrong? I thought the end result was so obvious! No surprise the Canadian polling industry is falling apart. I have a few ideas why the current polling results suck. If anyone wants me to fix the industry, they can pay me. I'll up my QAA donation if they do.
The wacky bluesgrass cover of any remotely popular rap song is still THRIVING in Colorado
Jake's right. We do love it when he can't get through a story without breaking down. The latest Epstein story was second only to his Live Die Repeat with Robert Evans.
aw man MoPop in Seattle was so cool. they had a traveling Laika exhibit when i was there with all the puppets and sets and stuff
Finally another Jake's takes!! Thank you
Liv Agar? Liv Agar.
Please consider the Dan Aykroyd classic Nothing But Trouble as a movie night option to torture Julian with. A truly remarkable film that concerns a Canadian’s perception of America. Very enlightening material
Loose Cannons is also a deep exploration of common white neurosis; hoarding, fascism and dissociative identity disorder are investigated and it’s on TuBI
Liv, Laugh, Love Agar
My mom is gen x, she used to be a GWB republican when I was like 6-14 but when my brother and I came out she turned hard left. Very proud of her, she's one of the good ones.
Jake, PLEASE do not say out loud that Americans have any roots in Canada. It will give the Trumpy tofuheads a justification to invade us!
T-Pain has been doing this outside Zuck’s house. It’s a bit odd, but I saw him performing this at a jazz club
Jake described one of the "good ship shows" as "xfiles-y" but is xfiles proper a ship show??? like it's GOT to be, right???
inb4 "'ship(ping)' originated in the xf fandom" - you're absolutely right, me; but that's the wrong kind
You chose the wrong Sonic, Jake.
Liv says "when Gen X learned to post." May I point out that we were the original posters.
It's funny to me every time, I've been online since 1990. My nephews tried to explain streaming to me the other day 💀
You know, you can CREATE the beautiful utopia we all dream of by releasing a Jakes Takes Lives Gives™️ every week....please...give us this one nice thing 🙏
I'm commenting for the first time to let y'all know you have unlocked a memory: I once texted my sister (who was, at the time, recovering from Actual Brain Surgery) at 3am to ask if she had written porny Sonic fanfic when we were kids or if id invented it somehow. She texted back to inform me that she had done that and thanked me for bringing it up.
Jake's Canadian Takes
liv's gives
Thank you Jake! How many listeners feel seen and slightly ashamed rn?! The generation mostly estranged from family from fighting for things we completely failed to get or change!
Yay a new Jake's takes that I can listen to way too many times!
Ah, culture at its finest!
Liv Agar
I LOVE SONIC GODDAMN YOU BOTH UNSUBSCRIBED!!!!!!
I have lived the Sonic lore with my kid. They’re just too old for Sonic!
She Liv on my Agar till I take Jake
Takes takes takes
Yesssssssss Liv Agar
It's me, I am the person super invested in Sonic the Hedgehog
Yo just saying after brothers home this should be a nice break but yeah y'all should totally do a movie night once in awhile or some shit because this timeline is cooked and shinny distractions are welcomed <3
Jake's Takes keeps me going. I measure my life in the time between new installments of Jake's Takes. I love you Mr Jake, thank you for your takes.
Aw, I was hoping they're'd be a sbmission period before the next Jakes Takes. Amazing episode regardless.
Oh apparently there was and I missed it. Thought it would have been in the Jakes Takes channel om the discord...
YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS
JAKE ROCKATANSKY
My eyes widened and my mouth went agape upon seeing this. In these dark times, Jakes Takes are exactly what I needed. Thank you QAA.
