from Real Good Show

This week on the show that's taking that for the Pythagorean Theorem, the Real Good Boys recorded this long before Donald Trump declared war on pro sports, which at this point might be nice for you to get a reprieve from all that bullshit. Anyway, we introduce a new Patreon donor tier: Become Stefan's Dad! PLUS: The NHL goes to China! Kevin Durant's Twitter gaffe makes him extremely relatable! Murder in the Real Good Secret! And The Öffice, the Finnish version of The Office. Support the show at www.patreon.com/RealGoodShow, where a donor mailbag will be released later tonight. This episode is brought to you by SeatGeek.

Real Stefan hack John Cullen and boys you followed through you said you're gonna talk about the one one one thing and here We are it's a special number They I'll give you that one one one one one is a fun number any any palindromic number is fun too We're one sixth of the way to six six six so if we just keep this going for six times as long as we've been doing it Yeah, I think we could just release I'm five five five We can release it shit on a really short episodes. Yeah, just again just a two minutes of piece just to get to six six six And like 420 all of us just the mini so it's basically having run all of the time like you being like Hey guys, this is episode 115.

Alright, see ya Well, you just you do the intro we do the intro and then you said and then you do the conclusion and that will do it Yeah, exactly. I like that little five five five five and you're six six six. Yeah classic. I slipknot lyric They're all you know just two minutes long recently.

Yeah, yeah I will admit right off the hop I am dumb tired right now Which means this episode can go one of two ways it'll either be very bad or it'll be one of those magic late night delirious Episodes that we you know used to be famous for I like the thing well we did like three ever Yeah, but yeah, we were famous for that the people love them. Yeah. Yeah, I just I feel like I'm too awake Like I'm extremely awake like I had a nice man. I'm also very awake too.

Oh, I had a nice nap I slept yet. I didn't work today. So I just had a very casual day So at the end of this episode I'm gonna look back at the sand and there will only be two sets of footprints because it turns out both of you were carrying me Yeah, exactly yeah I don't even know that if we could you might move in your arm for a second. I see now move it down.

Okay, I move to your left Okay, nice. See some bananas on the counter there see some what bananas. Oh, yes. Yeah, I got bananas Those are my bananas.

Yeah, first smoothie nice. Yeah, well, how do they bring over here? What are you working with organic? No, no organic They look perfect.

Yeah, I think she's a key to do we have some jicquita's on there? I think those are ciquita yet Okay, well, I mean I'd like to confirm it if you would stickers up the stickers off Oh Well, no, there's only put stickers on the top one No, you treat like buying bananas like like when I used to like buy CDs back in the day I just could not wait to fucking unwrap that shit immediately Just get those stickers off there. So it's mine. Well, no, there was just there was other bananas in the bunch and the one banana That has already been consumed.

Ah, that's all it's only buys a banana with parental advisory sticker Yeah, exactly stick them up his ass Jesus Christ Yeah, that's me. That's so glad tipper gore fought the food and drug administration to get the parental advisory stickers on the bananas and cucumbers and zucchinis Well, this is still a milestone episode here today because last week I produced my first NHL brought yes That's right, but this week's definitely and I think this will be very familiar to you living down in Los Angeles I am sipping my first look is it a lacroix or a La Croix? Well, it should be it should be La Croix of course, I think it's based out of like Minnesota or something and they pronounce it La Croix Because of course the name after a river it's based out of Michigan so technically the drink is pronounced La Croix and then the word not La Croix, okay, and I'm assuming that this is like all up in your fridge in the cafe offices Yeah, actually we bought like 70 eight of them Just filled the entire fridge 78 cases or single canisters No, just a bunch of cases. Oh, exactly.

Well, no, I guess it would be 36. Yeah, canisters. That's what we call it. Yeah, we call them canisters Hands is that I know but we just don't call it that excuse me sir.

Can I get a canister of course like Wait, is that a cans is short for yeah, of course. Yeah, what do you think those are just a different work? No, it's short for canister Obviously step and you dumb shit Come on, it's right there But yeah, I've never never indulged this is like the fine delicacy that John keeps in his fridge apparently as well So I'm about to take a sip for the first time rich as hell and become a you know a snooty middle upper-class white Probably like I don't know app developer. That's a drink this shit, right?

Yeah, absolutely No, I mean it's pretty affordable like for example, I buy mine at a grocery store called Ralph's okay Yeah, I know Ralph's like I should shop it right like it's affordable. It's like three dollars for like an eight-pack or something It's really cheap. It's nice. That's very refreshing.

It's like double that in Canada. It was my eight pack with six bucks We're having the Peshpur. That's the same flavor of the wasn't dog as is Blasol. That's a good flavor.

That's a good flavor. We have peach pear down here. Oh, okay. Yeah, it's good There's yeah, that's the other thing about the states is they have way more flavors of it We only have a couple like it's only just got up here So there's only a few they have grapefruit lime peach pear and crayon raspberry John's tried them all I have This is the best one I think but The lime one is good to yeah, I mean it's a crayon raspberry for me really see to me that tasted too much like medicine That'd be probably my least favorite.

Ah, I found it kind of had like a cherry medicine flavor even though cherry was not an advertise flavor I feel like this is well-worn territory before that we've covered on the show But as a man who doesn't drink you must like dabble in your fancy sodas. Oh, of course Yeah, craft sodas all that I talked about that in the Facebook group I only drink craft sodas someone someone asked if what people's favorite diet soda was I'm sorry. I only drink craft sodas, which is not expressly true, but pretty close and like Phillips doesn't do a diet soda No, of course not. They make when you make a craft soda.

You don't make a diet. Yeah, it's all cane sugar Yeah, it's beautiful not aspartame. Yeah, I've got a lot of favorites. I would say I really like I like all the Phillips ones I really like the anchor ginger root beer.

It's like it's a root beer But it's got a little bit of a hint of ginger in it sounds disgusting, but no it's delightful trust me You would like if you like root beer you'd like it's I do like root beer. I also like wine hards root beer That's a good back into root beer lately nice. I was like Virgil's Virgil's has a good doctor pepper and a good root beer and a good cola as well as Crim City that's a base out of white rock actually where I'm from and they've got a few different good flavors as well All right, well, I think we should kind of tick off the episode this week sort of how we did last week By talking about sodas for like 15 minutes. No, yeah by getting to the real good secret of the week Oh, yeah, I think that was a hit segment.

I was a hit segment Sanderson is really good. Sanderson certainly was enjoying the attention. I think It's you see it's maybe not all the way, but this week we teased this last week I sort of gave it away. It was you know an episode of murder most foul this week in the real good secret and Stefan Yeah, you know, it's definitely not because there's a news story Yeah, the person attached to the news story related to the secret.

Yeah, so right so here it is Yeah, this is this one comes to us from a mystery man who will not be identified even though he did send it from his actual He didn't want to create a burner email, but he is an anonymous fella And he says I am a police officer in City withheld. Yeah, city redacted and a few years ago. I responded to a missing person call This guy's wife and girlfriend both reported him missing and said he was suicidal. Yeah So he has a wife and a girlfriend important detail He eventually called us himself and told us where he was so I go out there and talk to him and he seems fine He said he just left to go clear his head and that they were overly worried about him because he tried to overdose six years prior He also said he was upset because his wife was sleeping with their pastor So after talking with him for a few minutes and having him talk to a crisis counselor on the phone We shook his hand and told him to go home, which he did and then he immediately killed his wife his girlfriend and himself Here's a news article about it And yes the pastor quoted in the article about what a good family They were is the one who was allegedly having the affair with his wife So I guess it's his secret that I'm writing in about so keep him anonymous too And maybe change the name of the city to a worse one like Cleveland This is probably way too dark for the podcast now that I think about it I don't know if seek geek the best way to buy yourself tickets to any major sporting event.

What a proof well Yeah, I mean I couldn't believe it like when we first got that I screen-capped it and sent it to Justin and Seth and being like holy shit Like I just couldn't even imagine that a police officer would listen to our podcast and like we said last week You know these letters sort of turning into penthouse forum letters was not entirely unexpected someone writing in about like a double murder Suicide that they were completely unexpected that they were involved in yeah like that they maybe feel like they could have stopped I'm sorry to prevent but this one is also kind of a penthouse forum letter because the priest was Allegedly doing stuff and if you read the article so the guy I think was in like his mid 40s And so he had a wife around the same age and then his girlfriend was in her mid 20s And everyone just like it was obviously an okay arrangement because I believe the wife and girlfriend were both living at the house Because you emailed the cop back and said he had a wife and a girlfriend But was mad his wife was sleeping with someone else isn't that a bit weird to which she says trust me I brought up that exact same point to him Must have been lost on him I guess so yeah I mean it's not it's less that she's doing it and more than maybe that she was doing it with a man of the cloth perhaps You would think I mean I think the priest would be above that sort of thing He's just an average man who clearly has no problems committing sins as he later demonstrated So that's probably fine on his end, but a priest should know better. I mean I guess yeah It's not it's not like a penthouse forum thing. It's more like it'd be like a deer guns and ammo magazine you'll never guess what happens Yeah, I think that's why most of the letters to the editor at guns and ammo are hey You're about this shooting. I was indirectly involved in yeah And I feel like last week, you know when we got the secret We tried to deal with it like some like an advice column maybe like yeah to guide this gentleman through his conundrum Clearly we're much too late to this situation to do anything But clearly something that this police officer wanted to get off of his chest and honestly it makes me a Little more hesitant to say fuck the police knowing that there's a good one up there who loves our show Well, that's what you say often Yes, well around like fuck the police yeah when the Las Vegas police union like filed their thing about Michael Bennett It was just like abolish the police.

They're like they're fucked. They're just completely fucked. They're beyond redemption Especially their unions because We thought at one of them a single one of them listens to our show yeah, and now you're like all police are good. Yeah, now blue lives matter But so if we were in the position to give advice to that guy not to the guy wrote the letter but the guy yeah My piece of advice would be Check out a different church.

I say I say go for I say go for an orgy Why not mix it up a little bit, you know, maybe you're into that like you don't know Yeah, I wonder if I think a pastor had to go to confessional in his own booth and had to keep running back and forth between the two Yeah, probably yeah, like if you think they had sex in the church. Oh Obviously your what else do you become a pastor for yeah? I mean, I guess that's true 24-hour access to that confession for sure. Yeah, have you guys ever done confession no You're either gonna ask us to be a fucking a church well or that I What's what are they What are the Greek Orthodox ones called churches?

Oh? Okay, no, I never mind. I Thought you're gonna go in I thought you're gonna do a graveyard angle there That's what you're going for like all the cemetery was attached to the church out back That's disgusting John. That's gross.

Yeah, well, I don't you seem like the type of guy that would have had sex with mine John I don't I've never who has access to a graveyard lots of people. It's not hard to go to a graveyard Yeah, I mean grave diggers for one undertakers or just people you just go to graveyards They can lock up after hours. They got short fences probably. I'm maybe I do have a friend whose parents got engaged in a graveyard on their first date Yeah, they're from like the 1930s now they're from Finland, but but yeah, she her parents Yeah, I guess they went on a date and they were going for a walk and they just ended up walking through a cemetery they found a bench they were sitting on the bench and I Guess the dad said to the mom like or I guess at this time Children the man said to the woman like hey, I think I really like you I'd like you to be my girlfriend and she was like yeah, I like you too Okay, and then they were walking along a little more and then he was like I think actually I would like you to be my wife Do you want to get married and she was like yep?

They've been married for 30 years at four kids Like the cemetery is the least weird part of that yeah, right getting engaged on your first date Yeah, I don't well and the fact that they're still together. Yeah. It's okay. It's impressive.

That's impressive I'm gonna raise a glass to the finish a graveyard I Don't know what I'm gonna see what cheers is and finish I have to say though. It's kind of like you know what like you're just living up to all your country stereotypes Like I'm so tired of hearing what fucking finish people getting engaged in great. I know it's insane Cheers in finishes. Kippus.

Kippus. So Kippus. Yeah, this is there like multiple vowels in a row there No, it's just k. I P.

I s. Oh, yeah, I mean there's dots above the eye No, no dots. Are there lines to the end of the piece? No, it's just regular.

Let's listen Kippus keep this yeah Exactly yeah keep this it's like when you go to Florida set the south of Florida and then you have to urinate Well, I'm sure that there was a lovely crowd that gathered to watch them have their wedding ceremony people come together And and you can come in Heather just got home for grocery shopping. Yeah. Yeah, yeah come in It's fine. It's fine.

Put your groceries away. Don't worry about it. We don't care and speaking of crowds Oh, yeah, it's a Like they got married because I got engaged in the grave. Oh married in that That's a good.

Yeah. Yeah married in the morgue. Definitely. No, they didn't know I don't know in the mausoleum.

Yeah, exactly I wasn't there so I don't know but yeah, maybe maybe they got married in their graves Isn't that like a tradition of some people that they like dig their graves? They get married in their first and then or maybe I'm just inventing that from the office I feel like that's what happened in the office. I'm not sure white man you'll ever get married in their grave or something I can't remember the finish office which is the office Yeah, absolutely. I love you know, Mikael Mikael Scott is my favorite character I was trying so hard to transition to do it.

Yeah, do it. Do it. Do our sneaky cat this week of course Not that it's an ad because it's something that we just talk about naturally every single week because we never run out of things to talk about When it comes to the ease and convenience of buying tickets on sneaky. Can you say, Stefan?

I would say that In fact you always are just constantly it's all you ever talk about is that there should be a better simpler way to buy because buying tickets to sports and concerts can be way too complicated Well, guess what Stefan there is what are you gonna say what? Well, guess what Stefan there is Seetik is the smartest easiest way to get tickets to live events with Seetik seamless mobile experience You can buy and sell tickets in just two taps they help you find the best seats at the best prices fully guaranteed There's nothing quite like seeing your favorite team or musician in person and see people get you closer to the action for a great value We all have a sneaky cat on our phones And it's by far the easiest way that we've found to shop for tickets Especially with the hockey season upon us and basketball just around the corner sports are back folks Of course the NFL is in full swing now, too There's no limit to the different kinds of tickets you can buy on this thing You just need to take a look I'm constantly looking to see what kind of feels like in debt and Seetik is designed to make your ticket buy and experience easier than ever They take your time and money by searching multiple tickets sites to prepare prices and find amazing deals And they get to the most bang for your boxy greats every ticket based on value to help you identify the best seats that fit your budget plus every purchase is fully guaranteed So you can shop for tickets on Seetik with confidence unlike those other guys Make Seetik your go-to app for finding the best deals on every type of ticket sports and concerts or comedy and theater and best of all Our listeners get $20 off their first Seetik purchase just download the Seetik app and their promo code real good today That's promo code real good for an instant $20 rebate off of your first Seetik purchase You guys know what that was I didn't it sounded familiar to me It was pretty it's pretty glitchy on my end so I didn't I was I was supposed to sound but no finish finish artist Okay, okay with the theme what is uh, what does the band name begin with a singer Nick H H H Was it him yeah good job Stephanie you definitely googled that yeah, I could hear you typing away. Yeah, we get all here Yeah, I was looking up a four no. Okay, sorry my bad Yeah, I noticed that we really haven't like fucked with you during that in a long time Like I mean I play a different song, but we never really like what's harder when we're not all in the same room I that's true.

It's definitely I usually would just kind of like try and fuck with you. Yeah I'm back for I'm back for Thanksgiving. So I don't know maybe we'll have time to possibly record something Yeah, we guys are invited to Thanksgiving again So I'm over we should record an episode there at least the bonus episode. Yeah, I absolutely want to do that Yeah, the heck family thanks Thanksgiving at your parents place last year was just incredible both as a meal and a cultural experience Yeah, I miss Thanksgiving, but I was there for Christmas and I'm pumped for that so yeah, I'm in Also that weekend if you guys are when you get back Stephanie don't Thanksgiving we get I'm back on the Friday and I've got a family thing to go to the Friday and then Saturday is Is me and Irene that's like our day Sunday you're missing the conoxies and opener.

What is that? What is that? The seventh the home opener against the Oilers. It's on a Saturday.

Yeah I'm trying to remember Irene still listens to these episodes I feel like yes, right? I mean she's been commenting on things. I didn't mean to see where you are. She's gonna text me I was just love you baby and Most reluctant baby, I've ever I'm just trying to okay, so there's a Play McDavid yeah, she understands I can okay.

Well, I've got the day with okay, well, you know, I will um Just just I'm not going to the game Irene Spending quality time with your father inside an arena. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, that's completely different. It's totally fine.

Yeah, you're good Well, I was also that's uh, yeah, I didn't think that it was reluctance to call Irene baby I think it was just reluctance of Stefan saying the word Yeah, I go I go her baby all the time, but just like on it's just like oh, it's not public you call her baby That's that your go to term of endearment baby or Occasionally monkey that was phone monkey. That was like the podcast equivalent of like her saying I love you over the phone and you being with people and very sheepishly being like yeah Like makes you say that baby part is a hard part yeah, she makes you say baby You're like I love you and then there's like a pause and you're like I love you baby Oh Yeah, no that makes sense because I was gonna say on the Friday night Past guest of the show Michael Rasmussen will be in town with the Tri-City Americans to the Vancouver Giants So I believe I will be attending that game well speaking of trying to make plans while Stefan is back in town Let's thank our donors this week. Oh, yeah shit. I'm on I'm not on the ball.

Oh, yeah Thank you for donating to the show to the show you work hard for your money that we know that we know segments where we read out all your names all your names if we say it wrong your parents are to blame And we got a slew of you don't we do thank you so much to everyone for donating to our show We're gonna have a new mailbag Yeah, we're recording a mailbag tonight. It's gonna be a good time. I thank you to Alec Barkley Alex bark sounds like a rich noble Yeah, like he sounds like a like 1970s NBA star. Yeah, Alex English and Charles Barkley.

Sure. So thank you I was thinking more Barclay, right like a baklai Man name Alec Barclay the third. Thank you Alec. We also Andrew ovens.

I believe it's a long time listener Maybe even a former donor. I don't remember, but he pledged five dollars. So thank you to Andrew He's been cooking up that donation for quite a while Jesus Christ. I knew you're gonna say something horrible about the oven thing We received a five dollar pledge from Max.

Thank you to Max mystery Max mystery Max. Yeah, and now we get into some significant pledges We just got a new t-shirt level pledge from Kevin Johel. Thank you Kevin. Kevin.

I mean it might just be Joel Kevin Joelle, maybe Kevin Jojel Thank you for pledging 17 dollars and 16 cents. I feel like there must be some sort of significance behind that 16 yeah, it's an important happen that year here's here's what it was May 28, 1716 John Churchill the first Duke of Marlboro suffers a paralytic stroke That's it That's the reference That has to be it and again another thank you to our largest donor Rohit Batty who has up to his pledge to 111 Largest in terms of like monetary contribution. I'm sure he's a man. He's in great shape.

He's not our fattest donor Oh, yeah, no, no, no, no, but he does have a small piece of stone. He has a small penis He made sure to tell us that last time if you think you are our fattest donor, please do right in the list No, who is our fattest donor? Which of our donors has the biggest way? Tell us that as well.

Let's measure this This is gonna be a bonus episode who is our fattest Make it pictures themselves Just like I think if I donated to the show and it's actually I do I don't need a dollar to the show a month technically So I keep forgetting to cancel it. Yeah, I think I'm the skinniest donor probably you might be the time certainly the time Yes overall. I don't know we have a few female donors that might be smaller Speaking of trying to make plans while you're back in town Rohit's latest bump in his donation also came with another letter true which says I changed my pledge to 111 and when Stefan comes back in town I would love to take you three out to a sporting event or concert of your choice Perhaps we could find love seeking and the tickets we would and he says the tickets and drinks are on me. P.

S. Dr. Heck H shit. He really hates your cat.

I don't know why the beat of that is a level there's a level of respect there I think like I feel I feel like it's it's like It's like a who who is Pete Sanpress is rival was an Andre Agassi? Yeah Like each other right like big grudgingly not really actually they hated each other for most of their careers. Oh, okay. Well They're like They're like secretary at and see biscuit and his owner It's like grudging respect Secretary is like jealous of the owner for being able to do what he wants like technically owns him The owner has always wanted to be a horse so this kind of that's probably the closest to wait Are you saying that row hit wants to be that row hit wants to be like your dad like you secretly wants to be a Psychologist he said that but he's now Stefan's father technically that is true Whoever has the highest that's another it's like a secret tier in the background, but whoever is the highest owners technically my father Yeah, they just they sign over the adoption certificate Yeah, they just pass it back and forth right now when I'm back in Vancouver Thanksgiving I'm gonna go to a Oilers game with my friend Paul And then the next night you're gonna do a game with your dad wrote it I like that.

I like this. You know what that's worth it for me. I will donate is if you can if you have the highest donation monthly You're my dad. I I'm gonna do this at Thanksgiving.

It's gonna be great. I went everyone's sitting around the table at Thanksgiving I'm gonna officially donate $112 and then to ban that Elizabeth and Paul hand over the No me and Paul are gonna race I'm gonna race him in his Corvette for the pinks Adoption certificates and my burst I'll put my birth certificate on the line No, I'm gonna donate to the highest amounts. I'll be my own Well, that is what you call yourself when you're masturbating, isn't it? No, I pretend that I'm like fucking a woman.

He very reluctantly calls himself Also, if I was calling myself dad, I would be voicing my hand. I would be like, okay, this is my fist Yeah, yeah, I'm saying like oh like fuck me dad. Yeah, that would be my fist saying that wouldn't be me saying that I would be I'm fucking my fist so it'd be my fist thing like yeah, but Why does he say it like he wants to go play catch after Some level of concern that if you were to become the number one donor you would also just like cease to exist that it would create some sort of like You know paradox that would wipe you out of the entire I think that only happens if there's a Polaroid photo of you somewhere So I think I'm safe Alright, well, I cannot wait to just roll through town with Rohit as like one of his beeba boys Absolutely, so thank you to all of the donors this week and Of course we got some sports to talk about this week because Kevin Durant Really really stepped in it, but before we talk about that. Do you want to talk about this China game Stefan?

Well, I just want to know I know it was it did you watch it or you were just like was it foggy on the ice? That was the practice the first practice early in the week in Shanghai the ice for the Canucks session anyways Like was not quite settled and there was just fog everywhere in the arena about the time the king's took the ice was fine Throughout the game. I was actually surprised at how good the ice was like I thought bouncing pucks would be a huge issue But no the biggest issue was just the refs Because yeah, they call like 50 penalties. Yeah, there were a million slashing calls in that game the Canucks went one for 12 on the power play Which is just a great invitation that new will Brown is gonna turn this ship around this year But it's just like this whole thing and even the players will fully admit that this is like a PR exercise to try and build Like a Chinese market for hockey.

You're not gonna do that by like icing a product that has absolutely no flow That is just penalty after penalty after penalty because like that crowd really did want to love the game They cheered wildly for literally every single body check, but the whole thing was just disjointed special teams I watched the game. I didn't get up at 3 30 to do the the broadcast I literally just never went to bed So it's been a long day for me because I've had a three hour nap in the afternoon and that's about it I've been awake for like 27 of the last 30 hours or something like that's a good ratio But you know that you do that sometimes I don't have to do it again on Friday when the game is in Beijing, so look forward to that on Friday night slash Saturday morning I know I am but yeah We we just took the TV feed short house and Garrett and short house like spoke Chinese a little bit during the pop drop So like it's just I don't it's you talked about this a little bit when you went on your wild rant last week But it seems like for two teams that are on the west coast and have an extraordinary amount of travel already To do this for games that you're like almost tacitly admitting don't matter at all You know as much as like I made fun of you for throwing in the towel on the season after preseason game number two It sort of seems like the teams are doing that also because like this is an amount of travel that will set you back in a way That you will never be able to recover from it for the rest of the year I'm honestly like I I'm fine with with the connects tanking their own season from the start by traveling across the world to get beaten by the kings Like I that's why any anything they can do to guarantee a last place fish is is fine by me I'm gonna I know I said I gave up on the season But I'm gonna watch Rochester this year and I'm gonna watch a lot of the prospects this year Like I'm excited to watch Peterson. He looks very good And I'm just gonna I'm gonna watch draft prospects as well because like I think you know We're not picking top three we can say that now, but we're gonna get someone like Adam Bocquist or Ryan Merkley or something like that. They're gonna be dope and I'm so I think I'm also I'm just in a good mood right now too For whatever reason I'm having fun on the podcast you guys you caught me at a good time.

Oh, and yeah I mean obviously the season's gonna be miserable Suck but I think just just seeing like the gold that's just for against Calgary is like the nicest goal I can't get scored in like three years. Yeah, so To me it's like they they sent the wrong roster to China Like they split the team in half with this kids roster and the veteran roster and the vets are all on like a vacation They're just like enjoying themselves in China and don't give a shit about playing these games probably and the kids who went to Calgary Had themselves a hell of a game and like an extremely entertaining product That's the roster that if you iced in Shanghai and Beijing the crowd would go wild for like nobody is flocking to hockey after the game That they saw last night. I don't think no, but I like the Calgary back here. It was actually really good Anyway, I don't want to talk too much about the connect second.

You're John not saying anything. Yeah, because this is boring as fuck But anyway, I I do have to say again, I'm very happy because I don't know you haven't announced yet on this. Oh, yeah I put it out on the in the group I am the studio producer for sports net that connects broadcasts for the entire season and which is so bad I have so fun cool and I will be doing probably like producing and co-hosting some Colin shows and stuff as well So you know Chris James and people like that can harass me at some point in the future too I look forward to that so I guess on a 1040 show of some sort I feel as though I've built up enough Cash a well, I don't work there. So you're asking the wrong question.

You could guess on a 1040 show Me Okay, look I'm in a different country. So yeah, no, I feel like you are the perfect voice of like the pessimist fan So I'm gonna make this commitment to you right now Stefan. John's already been on the station I know I was thinking to you guys have all been on so now you're the odd man out It's really fair for you to come in now with two and really just I Think has a lot of respect for you and your pessimism I think Recognizes you okay acknowledges your existence Sounds great. Yeah, he knows you from Twitter and you know speaking of Twitter Let's talk about Kevin Durant now because that's a much more interesting story.

Yeah, this is the most the most I've ever related to a pro-athlete Yeah, where KD it looked like if you hadn't heard if you haven't heard the story It looked like he had set up a shadow account to respond to people who at Replied to his main account. I knew that I had some special and I don't know what the hell is going on Justin I'm on bleacher reporting. I just had an auto play. Okay, so he looked like he was creating a shadow account to respond to people who were talking shit To him on his main account giving actual reasons why he left Oklahoma City Yeah, he's crashing the coach and all of the players on the team not named Russell Westbrook He has multiple shadow accounts to respond to people to say the things that he would like to say but cannot publicly say and You know, Stephen, you're a man with multiple Twitter accounts, right?

Yeah, that's why I relate to it I mean not so much multiple Twitter accounts thing because like my multiple Twitter accounts It's like you know that the that I'm buying that account of course hide behind those But but if you see like look people up and like I'll go into people's accounts and be like Have you so like anyway, sorry, that was something else I was I'm not talking about this Have you have you ever posted from the wrong account by accident? Oh, yeah, yeah for sure When yeah, when Keith Ellison's like social media manager accidentally retweeted the Benny Hana up in this bitch tweet from yeah You've retweeted from the right count. Yeah, occasionally I'll tweet about the Canucks on my main account like I'll do it on purpose sometimes but every so often I'll do it by accident and it was clearly meant for a hockey dipshit and And I've got like roll and lean into it and it's like yeah, and I meant to say hey I remember Curtis Sanford Hey, maybe they maybe they do and maybe they really appreciate that But yeah, I totally understand what you're doing and I'm sure most athletes have those secret accounts or at the very least just like Look at people's accounts. They're like you fucker.

Yeah, the question that he responded to was from Cole Cash you who said man I respect the hell out of you but give me one legitimate reason for leaving okay See other than getting a championship because you know we've complained on this show over the last like several months that Durant has basically like ruined basketball by making it too predictable But I feel like his Twitter almost like saved basketball this week by making it absolutely Funny again He responds with he didn't like the organization or playing for Billy Donovan his roster wasn't that good It was just him and Russ imagine taking Russ off that team see how bad they were Katie can't win a championship with those cats First of all love the use of with those cats. Yeah, it's just always giving you all the people cats Just I love how casual it is but also like as funny as it is that he did this from his own account Nothing that he said is really wrong from like an analyst perspective Like there there probably was a window for the Thunder to win a championship When they still had harden when they when like that trio was all together But ultimately they're like left with nothing other than Russell Westbrook who is a genuine insane person now that he's on his own It's not like a worldwide revenge tour. He's on the W. W.

O. Revenge tour right now, and it's beautiful to watch him do that by himself, but to Vance points there largely not wrong at all I don't think and very yeah, I mean I think it's good I think that you know we're in the infancy of social media I think eventually we're going to see athletes that legitimately don't give a shit and use their social media in that way I don't think we're too far away from that happening I don't think it'll maybe happen in like the NHL which is super boring, but certainly in the NBA or the NFL I mean obviously there are some athletes who are already Pardon me pretty outspoken on Twitter and stuff, but I think you'll end up seeing people being like yeah No, I just hated it in OKC and my coach was a piece of shit like when we accepted Logan Logan sure has a separate account between our porn videos. No, he does that on his own account Oh, I see you think he did it No, but he learned he learned from that so now he logs into that account and then opens a porn hub window And then is the only person in human history to click the share button Hey, man. I just really want everyone to share them below the share with your friends what you're watching Yeah, I can all do that as well or was it another one of those like Fentress no that was that that was that was that the tentacle porn The tentacle porn It's raw Oh, yeah, talking points I'm not gonna give him credit because he leaned into it He took the jokes and the tweet is still up.

Yeah, not the least Never really we we I respect him Like magnitude more than I did before because he has not to leave that tweet so who are we talking about? Josh Marshall. Oh, yes, but one last note on Kevin Durant He did publicly apologize for and owned it for slagging his manager He did apologize for that he regretted that and like and and you know being specific about things It wasn't fair to the people that he threw under the bus even if it was entirely correct He did regret that but there was another thing from him this week But I don't even know where this came from I saw it posted by former guests on this show Jeff be yet It was some sort of like asking me anything sort of thing that he did where he said I appreciate a love on the new kd's fun Facts since I broke my foot I wear orthotics instead of regular insults So I won't be stepping on my haters this year ha ha just a gift from us to you to let you know that your voices haven't heard Enjoy your day to which someone comments who cares what people think just do you? Someone of your stature shouldn't worry about stuff like that and Durant comes back at him with someone of my stature I play basketball.

I got acne. I grew up with nothing. I'm still figuring myself out in my late 20s I slide in DMS. I make fun of my friends.

I drink beers and play Xbox. I'm closer to you than you think which Yeah, he sounds fucking red. Well, sorry guys, but he's on my team So you guys can both go to hell and Kevin's gonna be hanging out with me and the boys I will say it was nice of him to apologize to Billy Donovan But then in the comments on the article about the apology. There was a guy called dunk boy 25 saying like yeah He didn't mean it So I know a little suspicious Yeah, every every Durant article dunk boy 25 just seems to appear.

I don't know where that's happening to say exactly what he what Kevin Durant secretly thinks Well speaking of people being salty. Oh, yeah our clip of the week this week comes to us from a former Yeah, not that long ago It was only about 10 episodes ago when we last saw this person Yeah, and I was talking about this earlier today with you John that his previous appearance on the clip of the week really made me like love this gentleman Right, but maybe it was just a clip crush and I've moved on because my feelings are fickle because this clip Well, certainly entertaining kind of makes me hate him and everything he stands for We are of course talking about Don LaGrecka who gets back into clip of the week honors this week on the Michael K show and once again Michael K just sitting there and just grinning and bearing it as LaGrecka becomes extremely unhinged and we will hear a little bit of that right now This offensive lineman only 27% of the time was Eli Pratrick from his left side on Monday nights when Sean McDonough is the announce stop Stop creating some narrative that you everybody knows football better than somebody else your eyeballs tell the story the offensive life sucks Spirit, that's my stat. You want a stat? You want saber metrics?

Offensive time look at Donald look right between his last night or send a Michael K show offensive life states. That's the stat Give me a break. That's what we're gonna do Michael We're gonna be like accounts now in baseball was it the Pythagorean theorem the Pythagorean theorem? line The people that trust all the people that listen to the Pythagorean theorem the people that sit there at their Only know the naked body throw national geographic It's like I've been watching it for 40 years That's one of the worst offensive lines ever seen and they have not gone this long without scoring 20 points since 7778 when Joe Bessar chick was their quarterback Patterson Plank Joe Pythagorean theorem I was watching at the same time so I can hear better and the little sip of water right at the end yeah So great.

I also think like he's it's great when you watch the clip because he's like spitting everywhere like every hard syllable He's just spitting all over everything also take that for your Pythagorean theorem is like almost the exact Phrasing as take that for that take that for data, but just coming out from the complete opposite direction Yeah, like I do sort of understand what he's saying and that like sometimes when you see like these ESPN stat accounts or whatever tweet out that like Such and such quarterback is you know undefeated on Mondays when it rains for half the day, but get sunny later Like there is like an absurd measure of statistics to some degree But to then use that to throw away all statistics and advanced stats and saber metrics and that sort of thing also seems Tossing up the baby with the bath water as it were so fuck you Don McGrecka You made me love you and now I have to kill you well I also think it's like I mean could you really not come up with could you really not come up with anything better than? then the Pythagorean theorem like who actually Like that's has nothing to do with it at all like it's just so stupid to me Like it's nothing to do with analytics whatsoever. You know what I mean? Yeah, no He just thought of the only thing from math class.

He could possibly remember yeah Which is any space like he's kind of doing like he's doing a mentally handicap person's voice right like that's the I mean That's very watching he's kind of doing the same sort of thing like I Was waiting for him to do kind of the the classic which is it's bad, but the arm off the chest move You know what I mean? Yeah, like the trump the trump thing when he The face the facial expressions certainly get that across very discomforting all around I mean that was that was unreal That's that's definitely a clip of the year contender I think we will hear it again come year end where exactly we will wait and find out I'm also I'm also kind of thinking at the end of this year We should do a bonus episode where it's our all-time greatest clicks. Oh, yeah That's gonna take some serious research Oh, yeah No, but we can also post in the group too and and get some people to chime in some of the fans chime in I think you're on something here. I like it, but let's let's move on Yeah, let's move on from our clip of the week though and get into our top three questions of the week Hey, yo, it's the top three questions of the week on real good show.

You know what the fuck it is bitch We murder and CFL podcast up in this motherfucker Russell look out John anything good in the mailbag this week, you know, there's not There's a lot in the mailbag not not as good as some previous settings, but we are gonna the mailbag episode recording that I think will be very good This question comes in from last year's or last half year No last year's question-asker of the year Jason Wickman at yah yah sucks and he asks in a game of survivor featuring the hosts and all the previous guests Who wins a million dollars and who is the first voted off? And although I'm gonna I would say I give yeah I was gonna go with John also like unless my team wins the first like six challenges and I can actually warm up to the team I'm probably getting voted off first because like yeah, you're a good guy deep down But you're such an antagonizing force on this show. Yeah, I do feel like there would be some some secret ill will against you That would come out absolutely and I'm definitely gonna Richard hatchet it. I'm just gonna be naked the whole time A bit of a wild card for the winner here After last week's episode I feel as though I owe this to him I'm gonna say Jesse for our is gonna win Cuz I'm in a group slack with him and after he listened to the episode He was like holy shit to the rgs question of the week and I was like what are you talking about?

He's like you fantasize about murdering me for ten minutes. It's true. I guess it's true But I mean eventually technically it was multiple you and eventually he overpowered and murdered us. Yeah, exactly So I think we're even but I'm gonna say that you win survivor rgs yeah, cuz you're wily and I feel as though you could kind of like curl up into a ball like an armadillo But what is the benefit of that because then no one's gonna notice him and and they're gonna be too busy voting And get up out of his little armadillo curl.

He's very flexible. He's actually super flexible Yeah, you keep bringing that up a lot. Yeah. Yeah, he's very flexible It's weird that Richard hatch was able to win considering he was like naked the entire time Oh the whole time you think that would be like you said a cause for early this man Yeah, that was such an interesting man the first couple seasons the survivor were so awesome.

I just loved it Yeah, yeah, it was such a cultural force. Yeah, man. Oh huge after season three I want to say I know people that have watched every single season that is cool I like I my curling team has watched every single season and every season he has a pool with the same people and they pick Who they have a draft and they pick who they think is gonna win and it's like a big deal That's pretty well, and they love it. How many there's probably been like 30 of them more and it's almost 40 now Holy fuck yeah, cuz it started in 2001.

I want to say okay, so yeah, I think I know who's gonna win I'm gonna go with Melissa statin who was of course a guest back on our episode 50 spectacular Yeah, I feel like she is like a charming and pleasant person But also like Connie and devious and would have all sorts of like schemes going into this and she's also Big like reality TV show person I feel like well super into like the bachelorette So this is this is season 35 Holy shit, and it premiered in the year 2000. Yeah, so I was close Yeah, two per year at least more than two per year. Yeah. Wow.

Did you pick a winner John for for who's gonna win this thing? Oh, no, I haven't but I think I have the right answer. I think Melissa's good But I think the person that's gonna win is Jackson play fair. Oh, yeah, cuz he's extreme He's extremely likable he definitely though has like a cunning side to him for sure like you know He'd play the game and once it gets the individual challenges.

He'll probably win all of it Yeah, it's athleticism is really gonna carry him a lot of those challenges Because yeah, if you think about like most of our guests are comedians and people in bands So like not the most in shape people out there And I would say a dark horse pick would actually be Steve Sladkowski He's a very intelligent dude, and I think he could go any also athletic people aid high school basketball And he was a you could have possibly played college baseball So he's a good like so he'd be an under the radar choice But I think Jackson would be the one who would win of course Richard Hatch just famously athletic also Well, yeah, but that was back when there wasn't as much emphasis place on the individual challenges like they still had individual challenges But that's probably true it wasn't until much later and he manipulated like he was just in control of Kelly Kelly kept winning them And he was in control the whole time. I don't remember that because it's like 18 years ago now I remember it was famous front page news when you want I remember well and like there was the whole thing about Sue saying that like if If Kelly was in the desert thirsty, she wouldn't give her a sip of water to chew on fire I wouldn't pee on you to put about yeah, I remember that one pretty great And she had that thick Boston accent when she was doing it so it was even worse anyway the next one comes in from Brandon O'Connor who with these 200 points moves into a tie for the lead with laid-back Luke and his question is you shockingly discover that your mother had an affair with an Athlete of the past resulting in her illegitimate pregnancy What is the best guess as to who your biological father is be free to base this on either your mom's preferences or your own genetically acquired traits? And so I thought okay, well, this would be a good time I'll just look up the 1983 84 may beliefs roster because that you know that I lived in Toronto at the time and I was conceived in 1984 Actually, I guess I would have been conceived in 1985 in January But the one of the notable players on that leaves team the highest scoring defense and on that leaves team anyone want to take a guess This is what I'm gonna say is my biological dad because I'm also a dumbass Hi, give me a hand here. Give me a hand high scoring defense high scoring defense many was 20 years old in that season He scored 12 goals 39 assists for 51 points What's his first initial?

Jay He's a guy that okay. Well, you do you want to keep thinking or you want more cool? Let's get some more clues. Okay.

He's a guy that he's Canadian and he's a guy that you guys have talked about quite a bit First initial is jinni. Yeah tops morning defense. Yep in 84 yep 83 84 For the leaves. Yeah, you guys talk.

Yep Jim Benning So Jim Benning is my biological dad. Wow I didn't know he was that I didn't know he was that good of a player, but yeah, he had 51 points in 83 84 He had 44 points and 84 85 and then it looks like he got injured in 85 86 and he was kind of never the same I'm gonna talk to the head probably yeah exactly Yeah, he had 25 points in 52 games in 85 86 who's still scoring at about the same pace and then he really fell off after that Well, I don't realize he also played for Vancouver for four years He did and that brings me to my answer okay because I'm adopted as you know, so this could technically be true This could be true. I would have been conceived in like mid 88 And who was playing for the Canucks the Vancouver Canucks around then but a defensive name Jim Benning Stephen were brothers. We are I mean brokeet is my dad, but like I guess Jim Benning is my biological father.

So damn that's great Yeah, true. I thought you were gonna say yerky lume because he kind of looks like he could be your dad He was not on the team. No, I know he wasn't I know he was a little after that. I gotta be I gotta be accurate Oh, that's for sure.

That's for sure. Yeah, there was also another player on the on the Leafs at that time Dan doused And he kind of looks almost exactly like I do so I was a little bit that was a little bit concerned that it might be him as well But yeah, what about you Justin? I have been looking over the 1985 86 Vancouver Canucks roster because I probably would have uh I guess technically 86 87 if if they got in early in the season around October then maybe that works right probably better Uh, but just looking over this roster. It's a pretty young team.

There's only one guy in his 30s on the entire squad Almost 31 jadu know I'm not sure exactly probably. Yeah about that. Okay. I'm almost only 22 So that's why the Jim betting thing really fit the mold.

Uh, yeah, there's there's two people that would be in the age range probably To to be in a romantic relationship with my mother at that time and they are either Richard Broduer or Yuri Bubla So Right now to see what he looks like yeah, you could have a blood yeah, actually that might that looks about right He's got a similar hairline to me. That's for sure At least back when he was younger. He has no hair at the moment. Oh, yeah, well Yeah, if you if you look at the picture of you with sideburns and you take these pictures of him with these huge sideburns Now our facial features don't quite match up, but our hair definitely does yeah hair so I must have got my mom's facial features and your bubbliss hair That's cool as hell.

Yeah, um, okay And the number one question of the week where 300 points comes in from long time listener Andrew Hamilton and this is we've had a lot of hypothetical scenarios involving our teams winning the Stanley Cup That's a favorite of people, you know, because they know that we're both are all three of us are long suffering Fans of two teams and so I think that's why it's such a popular question But this is this might be the best hypothetical we've had So the Canucks win the cup or the Leafs the Canucks are Leafs win the cup But you're not allowed to watch a single stitch of the season and instead you have to spend the equivalent hours watching young Sheldon Do you do it? Okay, sorry say that one more time. Okay, so the Canucks are the Leafs win the cup But you can't watch a single second of the season instead you have to spend the equivalent number of hours watching young Sheldon That's this year. So that's like basically okay So there's 82 games in a season.

Let's say that reasonably you could expect to be watching 70 of those and then playoffs you're probably watching every game So that's about 30. So it's approximately 100 games times three hours. So that's 300 hours 300 hours of young and by the time that this rolls around there will only be one season of young Sheldon So 22 episodes is typically a season now. Are they half an hour each are they creating new episodes just to fill the time that I know?

So you're watching the same so it's only 11 hours of young Sheldon content So you have to watch the same 11 hours of the show 30 times You know what? I'm gonna take my chances and I'm gonna say I'm not gonna do it because I would rather have the chance at raspous daline Or special kob which could create a more enjoyable experience down the road, but they're never gonna win though This is like they don't win the cup if you don't do this. Oh, they don't win the company. Don't do it.

Yeah, don't never win the cup. Yeah Sort of similar to the reality that we currently live in. Yeah I'll do it now John. I'm gonna like treat you like you're the dungeon master of this scenario Okay, so you need to outline some further rules that might not be in the question Okay, I'm not allowed to watch a single stitch of the season But after they win the cup like can I see a photo of it?

Yes I'm so I'd like there's color photos of the Canucks hoisting a Stanley cup and I'm allowed to look at them Yeah, it says you can't watch it So I guess technically you could listen as well so I can you can listen but you still the radio on while I watch young Sheldon No, no young Sheldon has to be soul focused, but then I can listen to the games afterwards. Yes, okay Uh, yeah, I'll do it. I think I think like as a psychological experiment young Sheldon will eventually break me like I might literally be a husk of a person by the end Right. Well, I might as well agree to do it as well because then we could just make a podcast out of us watching young Shelf which I think those guys did with growing up the vang wants us to do that anyways make a podcast about young Sheldon He dm'd me recently and said I want to be on your young Sheldon podcast I don't have a young Sheldon podcast.

He's like oh It drops it drops September 25th. So let's do a bonus young Sheldon. Yeah, I'm down with the vang Well, yeah, what's a bank? Don't want to listen to it.

He doesn't know he wants to be on the young Sheldon Sure, I'll bring to vang. All right. So look forward to that on the patreon feed before too long Yeah, and if people really like it then we'll just end up doing it that'll just be that'll be just patreon content We watch young Sheldon. Yeah, we're already doing this to our Anyway, we'll start with the first episode and go from there.

Yeah, I can't watch old Sheldon I'd rather stab my eyeballs out. So I can't imagine young Sheldon's gonna be any good. Um, but anyway, uh, so yes You get your wish Hamilton. Yeah, I'll three of us that yes we said yes.

I think the payoff is like ultimately worth it Yeah, it's worth it. It's worth it. Yeah, but that's a lot of times Yeah, but like as much as like young Sheldon is going to leave me as a bitter broken husk of human being I mean more than like four or five thousand people at this point have tuned in to watch the draft live stream It's not like sports hasn't already done that to me true true. So you are a broken shell of a man's true Uh, maybe not so much any longer though.

I feel like I need to find a new gimmick now, but I'm not a miserable failure anymore Yeah, maybe I got to take over as the miserable failure. I think this podcast. This job is probably bad for our content Yeah, it's not great when we're all happy. I'm very content, but the content is terrible Uh, but we will go from there into everyone's favorite segment because it means we're on the home stretch The chairing on top of our single sunday where we pick the things we like from the world at large one good thing If a lot of people love each other the world would be a better place to live Gentlemen, what do you like this week?

I like a game for the switch. It's like 20 dollars. I didn't I didn't buy the first one, but I This was recommended to me. It's called steam world dig two And it's like this kind of platformer, but you're like a mine so you're like digging down Uh and Killing enemies and like upgrading your pickaxe and all this stuff and it's a good game to play on the go on the switch It's like an ideal switch game.

So yeah, I thought you would tweet about that as your stephen's game recommendation of the week Yeah, which I knew I had another game at some point. I forget what it was but I might have been split tuned too But this is my yeah, I'm gonna recommend on here also steam world dig two all right So if you have a switch which I don't think a lot of people do but I might be wrong about that You got it honestly you guys should all pick like they it's so fucking fun I'm I'm going on to fling a calgary next weekend and Vancouver the weekend after that and I'm bringing the switch on the plane And I'll be playing in the end Yeah, and you keep you keep like messaging us in the group chat about how sweet it is the play Nintendo while you're sitting on the toilet also It's what do you want to Calgary for? a friend's wedding actually uh john john ryan fry who's in our Basically he's getting married. Oh, well.

Thank you for the invite john ryan fry maybe your really congratulations to him and Yeah, maybe your way. I'll be there. That's lovely. They are wedding be attacked by locusts I'm happy for both of them.

I am not seems like that's a common thing is people join our facebook group and then get married shortly after Yeah, he hasn't sent us any like engagement or marriage photos But if he does, I will be happy to congratulate him on the good bump it is they make he may have been engaged before joining the group Right, but now if he gets married send a pic I will send a photo don't be some photos I'm gonna wear that. I am going to recommend a video game as well and it is the home improvement game for super Now note that I have never played this game But uh, we were doing some research at jared hale brought it to our attention and we were doing some research and there are a lot of things that are pretty crazy about it So here is the uh, I think the fact that it exists at all is yeah So the game is called home improvement power tool pursuit Uh, so the show the game starts with a special broadcast of tool time and tim is preparing to unveil a new binford tool line that bears his name And he goes to get them only discover that they're missing and that tim needs to go find them And these weapons include a nail gun a blow torch and a chainsaw which hurls energy waves These weapons are used to fight dinosaurs acid spewing mummies robot centuries and other enemies It's like a platformer game of course the all of these things that we constantly saw at home improvement Absolutely. So this is great. So uh, my my favorite Quote from the Wikipedia entry is the game had no instruction manual explaining the buttons In its place a fake manual was used with a sticker reading real men don't need instructions A message which also appears on the splash screen and then I found a picture of it and that's literally yeah They literally made a manual put it into the The box, but then it said you don't need this.

Yeah, you're a real man. I was looking at it like behind the sticker Yeah, it's like all of the instructions are fake nothing about it seems real It doesn't make sense. So I found an article about it on game illogical.com Which is the av clubs video game website and this guy plays it and it's really funny his way of explaining it is great Uh, he says that uh, tim is about to unveil his own line of bin for tools on the air only to discover They've been mysteriously misplaced so like most high functioning adults He throws a tantrum storming off his set and on to other sound stages where his precious new toys have been spotted So that the idea is he's on sound stages. That's why there's always that Yeah, so he is armed with a grappling hook which is also a jackhammer, which is also a sparkly hammer that bats down bad guys In my spare time I work with a group that teaches children creative writing and then performs the stories they write I cannot tell you how many times elementary school boys give their characters these sorts of literal deus ex machina And that is not enough There are staple guns and flamethrowers to find chainsaws that shoot waves of shocks and endless bundles of dynamites to hurl And they are used to take down beats that would only set foot on the actual home improvement in a dream sequence Dinosaurs ghosts robots and other large flashy things to capture little boys imaginations How is this possible power tool pursuit explains the way the presence of such fantastical creatures by fitting them into another show filming on another sound stage Dinosaur safari is the first followed by one that looks like the inside of a pyramid in ancient egypt Tim Taylor can finally shoot alien robots with lasers on a space station as it was foretold So Pretty pretty great, but reviews of the game are pretty good people thought it was people thought it was pretty fun There's got to be an emulator for it out there.

Yeah, and I will say last thing I'll say on it I checked the amazon.com reviews. Yeah, and there was a great there was a great game or sorry a great review by joseph Sonati somebody saying september 7 gave me diarrhea. No, I mean that would be great too But he says the title of the review is this game need the improvement And I was like well that is pretty uh, that is pretty good Well, hopefully we can look forward to that coming soon to the stephen and jesse twitch stream. Yeah, it says it's great Wrong and illegal wrong and play it.

Yeah, do it because yeah He says I got the instruction manual to get how to play the game and guess what it said real men don't need instruction manual I was thinking what the heck it's a fucking kids game That's when I just sold the game at a garage sale for redacted dollars Like put little brackets and then ellipses it like I'm not gonna reveal how much I sold this I Thought tweet from Tim Allen recently which I think was brought to a our attention in the facebook group possibly somebody screen Captain posted it in the real good group. Uh, it was Tim Allen tweet saying that people still like I'm assuming he still does like stand up Yeah, occasionally. I mean it's like people still love it when I do the Tim Allen grunt Hashtag capital r capital r capital r capital r capital r capital r So that might be how he like wrote it out in the script. Yeah, also it's just just Just Probably had a few different ones like because in the Simpsons It's famously dough is famously written in the script as annoyed grunt Oh, okay, and then Dan Castellanetta just invented like doubt or whatever and uh, so Tim Allen Yeah, I wonder if he had different like there because he did on the show there was like a Course that's like man.

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Exactly. I know when he was confused. It was the And so maybe he had like that too.

That's just like that's spelled at D O O O O O O O Y W A it's like the old forerunner for like doi yeah, basically Fantastic, I'm going to recommend a TV series this week. Sure. I am just about to move into my new place Very very soon this coming Tuesday. So in my final week living at my parents I'm trying to take as much advantage of HBO on-demand as I possibly can it's not gonna have cable access in my new place And I have been using that access to binge watch the entire series of vice principles with Danny McBride and Walton Goggins And I am a huge fan of Walton Goggins.

I loved the series justified of which he's basically like the anti-hero villain boycrowder excellent performance excellent actor and that takes him completely out of that world and into a just like kind of eastbound and down comic Reality where the two of them play Doolene vice principles at a high school who are trying to get their principal fired so that one of them will be up for that promotion And just you know I heard a lot of kind of negative or mixed things about it when it first debuted that maybe people had this expectation for it That it would be the new eastbound and down and it didn't live up to that And I don't know if it's just that I went in with perhaps lowered expectations as a result of what I heard But I basically watched like six episodes in a row the other night and was just like howling with laughter It is extremely funny and yeah, I strongly recommend Vice principles the HBO comedy series the second season of which just started this past weekend Fantastic and with that that will do it for this week's episode our roommates are heather and Ben our interns The fine folks that seek eat promo code real good for twenty dollars off your first purchase a very progressive company populated entirely by women If you like the show you can support it at patreon.com So I'm gonna show five dollars a month get access to all of our bonus content and John and I were talking before the show I went to air tonight that we might post the suri Eagles game that the two of us did the commentary for Coming up on the patreon feed pretty soon this month possibly so look forward to that and of course we are recording a new mailbag Right after we wrap this episode right now So I'm gonna hurry up and do that if you want to find us online real good show Dot-com is the place to do that the blogs with stuff we talk about each and every week on Twitter at real good show the Facebook group is Facebook Dot-com slash group slash real good show and it continues to grow each and every week which is very nice to see of course It very much helps the show as well when you write and review us on iTunes or better yet Just simply tell people on Twitter in real life It doesn't really matter but the show exists and you like it and you think they might like it too That certainly helps as well until next week.
