Garrett nailed it. He's definitely Kramer
Yoooo I love Pinback
Misery is an all timer
audiobook
this was great
Audiobook.
i wish patreon saved my wathc location, if i navigate out and back it moves the player to the start of the vid, annoying, youtube unlisted vids are easier to track playback progress
During the intro song I tried to get Rejarded
13:47
Weighing in on King Steven just in time: The Stand is pretty good, way better than the show. I thought Skeleton Crew was kind-of a stinker, but Night Shift is (for my money) the best horror short-story collection ever produced. 11.22.63 is awesome, as is Stand By Me. Most of his other stuff I've read I thought was just okay. The Shining was a huge let-down after how much better the movie is.
I was with Shawn about the audio book thing until he said The Lord of the Rings is boring
A Rocco rant on his Weezer opinons would be killer
Shawn getting bullied by Rocco for 15 mins it really is like the old days
Honestly those old James Bond movies, as goofy as they are, are super nostalgic to me and are kinda like my basis for what James Bond movies are. My grandpa used to love watching my dad's VHS recordings of those Roger Moore ones in particular, good times lol
Contemplating putting Rocco's Siguir Rios impersonation as a ringtone for a loved one
i will stay subbed for this plz ty
Nah we need theme song. That cut was great.
Emi Evans made up the language for the Nier soundtracks too.
Seeing Ashnikko next week, glad Garrett is a fan too. ;P
I always thought Rocco would probably like the NieR games, but if he hates made-up languages in music this much, maybe it’s better he doesn’t play them.
With nier there is more context at least. I think that may be his issue, there’s no context or anything to really justify making up a language so it comes off as pretentious.
"audiobook" holy shit, lol I absolutely love this presentation format- Derrick's slideshow was awesome.
I agree Shawn. The Fellowship is a very very dry book. Also that “audiobook” comment from Rocco was incredibly rude lol
Good stuff really enjoyable episode
Someone please show Rocco that guy with the retractable lightsaber he invented
I also hated No Time to Die. How can they make such crazy ass set pieces so incredibly boring. Kind of wish the whole movie was Bond just chilling in the Caribbean
I love that Islands album! Good taste Shawn
I was suprised Shawn was reading lord of the rings and when Rocco pointed out audiobook I was like ah.
Shawn, the beginning of Fellowship of the Ring book is super slow because Tolkien just winged as he went along. When they get to Rivendell he figured out the rest and it picks up the speed a lot.
Yes! Exactly, honestly the first half is the build up which personally I enjoyed but once they hit Rivendell up until the end of the trilogy it is a masterpiece I hope he picks it back up.
I love the inclusion of music again, you guys are all super musically inclined and know a lot, glad we're seeing stuff you wouldnt on twitch/youtube. That Nine Inch Noise shit was wild!
Loved the moonwalking dog thanks garrett
Good pod
Awesome episode 2. The PowerPoint segment was interesting and I like everybody's song picks at the end.
This episode is easily worth $20 on its own.
This was so great. The presentations were so interesting from everyone. This content is fantastic cant wait for the next episode
Late period Bowie is severely underrated. I would recommend the album earthling if you want some industrial/drum and bass/jazz inspired tunes
2 hours youre spoiling us
Love this ep
"Nirvana in '89? With Chad Kroeger on drums!?" i love garrett edit: nvm i just watched his presentation
audiobook
Shawn’s intro bit was funny and I think he should interrupt more
this one was sooo good. i loved the presentations
I was sold once the lightsaber started shooting tie fighter blasters
Genuinely who is the the random fifth guy in the intro
Shawn's roommate at the time.
It is CRAZY to me that Rocco doesn’t love the 70s & 80s Bond films.
No hate to Derrick but I liked No Time To Die even though the main thought I had was they just stole this from metal gear (which kojima stole from bond films.) But yes, seconds into the pod and can say this is the greatest show on earth!
Audiobook was a level beyond Padres lost
Audiobook is the new Padres lost
How long until we get to the Arcade set?
Huge Sigur Rós fan here, just wanted to chime in on the discussion! The song they're referencing in the beginning is called "Inní Mér Syngur Vitleysingur" and is sung in Icelandic. They do have songs and whole albums in the made-up language "Hopelandic", but it's really just a series of syllables that sound nice when sung; there's no literal meaning to any of it. For any Internet Soldiers who are curious about "Hopelandic" (and I highly recommend checking Sigur Rós out, their music combines otherworldly beauty and rock energy shockingly well), check out the song "Salka" or "Untitled #1 (Vaka)". No hate at all to the boiz, that Sigur Rós segment actually made me laugh pretty hard. Loving these extra episodes!
I’m a fan of the presentation bit! I think if the “bit” is something you guys all spend a little time on and bring your personalities to, it’s more than welcome.
this was cool
good ep
Hell yeah i look forward to these every month now
Just going to say, Derrick is 100% correct in that No Time to Die is garbage tier Bond. Frankly outside Casino Royale the entire Craig era was garbage, the Roger Moore era was peak "make a Bond version of current thing" with the Blacksploitation in Live and Let Die and corny sci-fi with Moonraker but were at least fun (mostly). Also Timothy Dalton is the real GOAT Bond, just truly playing the character as this dead inside cold killer with the ability to put on a dashing smile as needed. GoldenEye is so clearly a reused Dalton script and works so well for a "what do you do with the spies now the Cold War is over" finale to the previous two.
No Time to Die was really fun for me and I’m a lifelong Bond watcher. Really not a big fan of Skyfall and think it’s massively overrated. No Time to Die and Casino Royale are my favorites of Craig.
Audiobook.
Holy shit the intro cutting out just right before the chorus
audiobook
2 hours? You spoil us!
crazy to think I read stars my destination after derrick recommended it on the original mansion set. Great read!
Loving mega mansion, worth going to tier 2 for. RIP Charlie Kirk sucks his kids have to grow up going through this

Let's get it started in here (woke version)
