SPEAKER_02 0:18

Hey everyone. Welcome. How you doing, Rob? Hey Mark, how you doing, bud? Good. I'd like to say I miss you, but I don't. Feelings mutual, I guess. Got it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 0:30

Dang. It's right out the gate, huh?

SPEAKER_02 0:32

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00 0:33

Uh, yeah. So first things first, Mark. How's Maggie doing?

SPEAKER_02 0:38

Yes. Maggie's doing fine. Uh, we're giving her more time in the uh when she first wakes up to get ready to move, you know, without trying to move her. And then right after she drinks or eats, like I talked about, she we make sure she goes outside. But other than that, she seems to have sprung back a little bit, which makes my life happy.

SPEAKER_00 0:58

Yeah, that's great. I'm glad to hear that. Yeah. Um, which was, I think, very considerate of me to just ask about that right off the top, but also kind of rude to not even spend any time introducing our guests.

SPEAKER_02 1:12

Oh, it's like they didn't, they don't they don't care about our guests, they like his son better.

SPEAKER_00 1:16

Yeah. I mean, he did set a pretty high bar.

SPEAKER_02 1:19

Yeah, the stats really show that. Yeah, everybody mentions it.

SPEAKER_00 1:25

Who's everybody? Is this like a Trump thing? Oh, people people are talking about it.

SPEAKER_02 1:30

You know it, I know it. Everybody knows it. All seven people in my head. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:37

Yeah, it's a real bunch of sons of bitches in there. Um, yeah. Yeah, so Rob is my brother Rob, uh who's I think he's been name checked on pretty much every episode. If you're if you're familiar with the podcast and you listen uh regularly, then um you're probably familiar with Rob. But for those who aren't, um he uh it's my younger brother who lives in Arizona. Um I think he's peeing right now. What the fuck is that?

SPEAKER_02 2:07

I think so too. I was gonna ask a fish tank. It's a fish tank. Good God. Jesus Christ. He's filling the fish tank. Well, get that off the table real fast. Yeah, well, yeah, he's over there filling the fish tank. It must be a low fish tank with the height of Rob.

SPEAKER_03 2:23

It is looking pretty low right now. Oh, come on, man.

SPEAKER_00 2:25

Oof. Oof. Oof. Um, yeah, I was I'm glad it's a fish tank. I was gonna say, at least, you know, I'm a professional, so at least I have the decency to just upend the whole show and just stop having it for like five minutes at a time whenever I need to pee.

SPEAKER_02 2:45

Oh yeah. Uh, and just to mention on that one, uh, did you see Cindy's comment on our YouTube?

Rob Joins And The Fish Tank Panic

SPEAKER_00 2:51

Uh I I can't get out of it. She's just can't get out of my head that he's it really sound why does it sound like that?

SPEAKER_02 2:59

I thought fish tanks made like unplug it, Rob.

SPEAKER_00 3:04

Are the fish gonna die?

SPEAKER_02 3:06

Oh no, they just they'll be fine without air for a little bit.

SPEAKER_00 3:09

What is oh, it's an air thingy.

SPEAKER_02 3:12

Yeah, it's the it's the air when the water comes in, I think with that one maybe through the back, then it it drops down into the tank, but it's low, so then it gives you the toilet effect.

SPEAKER_00 3:23

Oh my god. Okay, so yes, I was just looking for a yes or no, thanks. Um I don't know how to do that. Yeah, I know. Yeah, Cindy. Are you still there, Rob?

SPEAKER_03 3:38

Yeah, I just made it worse. It's it's way worse.

SPEAKER_00 3:40

I was like, is this I was thinking, is the microphone connected to the the fish tank? And he turned that off and dropped his audio.

SPEAKER_02 3:48

He's got it set up on the toilet tank. He's he's backwards facing on the toilet right now.

SPEAKER_03 3:56

That's my debut. I gotta speak from the throne, bro.

SPEAKER_02 3:59

Oh, jeez.

SPEAKER_03 4:00

Um I thought you said from the throat.

SPEAKER_00 4:04

That's what I thought he said too. What did you say?

SPEAKER_03 4:07

Throne. No, the throne. Throne where Elvis died.

SPEAKER_00 4:11

Uh-huh. Um he actually fell off. Jesus Christ. I was trying to do an introduction here. Okay. So oh yeah. Uh so younger brother lives in Arizona, peas boys on podcast. Um he he's uh I will say that he's been a huge fan of the podcast from the beginning. Um, very supportive of it. He's listened to every episode, and I when I say that about Rob, it's true, unlike his son, who's a liar. He's like, Oh yeah, I totally listen to all of them, and they're great. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 4:43

Did you get through that one, Robbie? Which one? Which one? When does mine err?

SPEAKER_00 4:47

Yeah. Have you heard the theme the theme song? Uh yeah, I heard it a long time ago. Oh, okay, it's at the end of every episode that you always okay. Oh, yeah, the B movie. Um but no, uh seriously, like Rob's been uh very supportive and very interested, and uh have to give him props and um say thanks because in the in the very beginning he gave us some very uh good constructive feedback. Um which uh we think that's not what you said. What did I okay, what what did I say?

SPEAKER_02 5:22

He said that little fucking brother of mine has nothing but complaints about this thing and that we need to change stuff.

SPEAKER_00 5:27

Yeah. Well I mean potato tomato, okay.

SPEAKER_03 5:30

So yeah, but he he that's in the beginning, but as soon as he has to ruminate or at least digest it for a little bit, and then he's like comes to his senses. Unlike you, Mark, who has taken obviously none of my advice. Yep. No, why would I take your advice? You don't know what you feel about podcasting, right?

SPEAKER_02 5:47

No, but as soon as you can look me eye to eye, then we'll talk. All right, when you're in your casket, we'll we'll have a chat, okay?

SPEAKER_03 5:55

Oh god.

SPEAKER_02 5:56

Uh that'll be that'll be next week, buddy.

SPEAKER_00 6:02

Um Rob, so you're clearly not a professional podcaster like like Mark. You need to keep a consistent distance with that mic, bud.

SPEAKER_03 6:13

Oh, my bad.

SPEAKER_00 6:14

You're going back and forth and back and forth, and it's fucked, you know. But you're yeah, hey, it's all part of the learning process.

SPEAKER_03 6:21

He's rocking back and forth. Can we scrap this one, boys, and start over?

SPEAKER_00 6:25

Uh nope.

SPEAKER_03 6:26

No, uh-uh.

SPEAKER_00 6:27

We don't we don't we don't do that. It's like if it's if the episode is just terrible in a total tailspin, it's just like, well, grab a shoot or something, I'll see what we can do. We're in it. All right, so yep, that's Rob. But I mean he's wanted to be on it for a long time. Um, and actually, uh this is the first time you're on it for a full episode. So I I I I I went to put together a clip, like kind of a clip reel of all your time on the podcast before. Um, and then I went to uh export it as an audio file and there wasn't enough duration of audio to make an audio file.

SPEAKER_03 7:02

So I'll be honest, I was I was I had a little bit of a uh a voice in the back of my head saying he might pull another fast one on you, buddy, preparing for like the last hour and a half for this whole thing for you to go, all right, and that's the show.

SPEAKER_00 7:17

Yeah, we that was uh original. Yeah, we we certainly talked about that. Uh but what do you mean? Hold on, preparing for an hour and a half. This is interesting. So uh you you prepare more than Mark ever has for any show. Um so what did you prepare? Like notes, a bio?

SPEAKER_03 7:37

As soon as I got off the phone call from you asking if I had the availability to be on the podcast tonight, I immediately ran through the house screaming at everybody, saying, All right, we got a DEF CON 4 guys, like it's time, you know, like D-Day is here, and we're about to storm Normandy, so I'm pushing the kids down on the ground, getting out of my way. I'm trying to get Robbie's computer fired up. It was uh it was a bit of an ordeal.

SPEAKER_02 8:02

So you're uh Yeah, you can really tell we're interested. I am Jesus.

SPEAKER_00 8:07

That's I I'm interested, Mark.

SPEAKER_02 8:09

Jeez, I was just I just can't believe that he had pushed down Kai.

SPEAKER_00 8:14

He didn't. It's called a it's called a joke.

SPEAKER_02 8:17

Oh, oh I don't get those.

SPEAKER_00 8:19

Uh you don't make them either.

SPEAKER_03 8:23

Got him.

SPEAKER_00 8:25

Uh yeah, it's called a joke. Uh your jokes are like, well, I'm just gonna say a movie clip whenever they're silenced.

SPEAKER_02 8:35

Oh, do we want to talk about movie clips there, uh, Mr. Oh fuck.

SPEAKER_00 8:39

Well, hold on. Let's sure I'd love to. I'm not sure which ones you're talking about, but I'd love to. But let's go back to what you said before. Yes, about Cindy's comment.

SPEAKER_02 8:47

Oh yeah, Cindy uh said that we now need to call it uh a new name. RJ and Mark and Mr. Tinkles.

SPEAKER_03 8:58

Is that me? Am I Mr. Tinkles? Oh no, it's RJ. Yeah, RJ's Mr. Tinker. It's RJ's take it back to it.

SPEAKER_00 9:03

Wait, yeah, did you not listen to the latest episode yet?

SPEAKER_03 9:07

I was listening to it. Yeah, I was listening to it uh as I was waiting desperately for you to send me the link.

SPEAKER_00 9:12

That was part of your preparation. Yeah, hour and a half to get to get caught up.

SPEAKER_03 9:18

I'm a consummate professional, boys.

SPEAKER_00 9:20

Yes, you are. Did you did you finish it?

SPEAKER_03 9:24

Uh uh No. Okay, well, like 10 minutes left. I got like 10 minutes. Come on.

SPEAKER_00 9:29

No, no, no. It's uh I'm actually uh I'm not putting you on the spot so much as uh did you get to the part about Maggie yet?

SPEAKER_03 9:36

Yes, I did. That that was the more important thing because I read the description. I see and so I was kind of fast forwarding through the boring Mark talking parts and then uh got to the important Maggie piece.

SPEAKER_00 9:48

There you go. Okay, so yeah, that's that's why I wanted to ask about her right off the bat. Um uh so yeah, she Cindy said Cindy said, Glad you got the new Mar Newman thing figured out. She said, I'm a sucker for a good Swayze movie. And then she said set and centered featuring RJ Markin' special appearance, The Tinkler.

SPEAKER_02 10:08

The Tinkler. Okay, so I fucked it up.

SPEAKER_00 10:11

Yeah, you did. And also, um I you know, I love Cindy, I love her comments. She's far and away the most engaged uh listener we have. Um she didn't come up with the tinkler, you did, don't you remember that?

SPEAKER_02 10:25

Well, yeah, because every time you take a break and leave me alone, I just talk about it. Well yeah, tinkler and everything else.

SPEAKER_00 10:31

Not every time. The last time you said uh the last time you said uh you said marking the tinkler.

SPEAKER_02 10:41

I don't remember that, but okay. All right, well I'll take it.

SPEAKER_00 10:45

Read the transcript of your own show, maybe. I don't know what to tell you.

SPEAKER_03 10:49

He doesn't even listen to it when he talks about it.

SPEAKER_00 10:52

He barely even does it.

SPEAKER_02 10:56

I turn it on to for Maggie to listen to since she can't hear.

SPEAKER_00 10:59

Oh, that's good because I put her Yeah, well, I guess I was gonna say put her to sleep according to the vodka queen. Um Jesus. What?

SPEAKER_02 11:08

Oh well, and yeah, that and then uh Cindy said that she had a nickname for herself, but I don't know if we should really use it.

SPEAKER_00 11:16

I'm gonna let um that's that's up to you, man. I mean, I don't know her. It's tequila tits. Oh god. Oh, we definitely should use it. I mean, we it's been used because I don't edit, but I mean it's there now, but oh I love that. Tequila tits.

SPEAKER_03 11:35

You only know who the next guest is gonna be.

SPEAKER_00 11:37

Your wife? Yeah. Your wife. Or are you talking Brian's wife?

SPEAKER_03 11:42

Tequila tits.

SPEAKER_00 11:43

Oh, tequila tits. Uh yeah, yeah. Oh, Brian's listening to the podcast now. Did you know that? He probably he is, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Well, he listened to one that I know of, so that's a half more than Robbie. Correct. That's true. Well, no, he Robbie's listened to his own exactly one episode, correct? And he was just like not too thrilled about Rob was telling me like he put it on, you know, and I think Robbie came in maybe 12 minutes or something into the show, and Rob Robbie just like stiff ass barring, like, where's the part with me?

SPEAKER_03 12:20

Yeah, we're we're driving, taking him to school in the morning, and I was like, it was Wednesday when it released. He's like, Oh, I think the podcast came out today or comes out today. So I was like, Let me check. And sure shit, it was there. So we started listening to it, and not three minutes into it, he I'm like, What do you think? He's like, uh, can you fast forward to the part where I come in? Yep. It's like okay.

SPEAKER_00 12:45

Yeah, uh a couple things I'll say about that. One, um, I'd sent him a screenshot at midnight oh three when it was published because he insisted let me know. Uh and then two, when I talked to him on the phone before it was published, uh huh, I I I think I asked him like what the Oh, don't you have like, are you subscribed on Spotify or whatever? He's like, I think so. I'm like, uh-huh. I mean you should at least be subscribed. He's like, I don't really listen to podcasts. And I'm like, I I I go into my thing. Well, no, it's it's worse than that. I go into my thing. I'm like, it's I get it. They're not for everybody, Robbie. You know, blah blah blah. And I he's like, no, it's just they're boring.

SPEAKER_02 13:31

But you were on one.

SPEAKER_00 13:32

Cool, bud. Uh well, I'll let you know when your show comes out. I'm sure at the end of it, as soon as the the like the music star roll at the end, he's just like, oh cool, hit stop on you know, uninstalled this podcast playing app. He's like, done with that.

SPEAKER_02 13:47

You know what I'm picturing? What? Him sitting in the Jeep with the headlights on, pointing at the trailer at your place. That was a golf cart. Because he was upset and waiting for it, and then it wasn't exp exactly what he was thinking about.

SPEAKER_00 13:59

Uh probably, yeah. It was a golf cart. You remember that, Rob? No, I have to refresh my memory. It was it was one night. I don't know. He was he wanted to go do something. I don't know, but it was nighttime. So maybe he wanted to go frog, frog gigging or gigging, whatever you guys do with frogs. But and we were like, yeah, yeah, yeah, just like a couple minutes, right? And we ended up talking, you know, for I don't know, 20-30 minutes. Like an actual conversation. And so he starts driving around the golf cart, driving past the deck with all the bright headlights on the deck. He'd blind us, drive by a few times, we were ignoring him, and he's driving up from the pond, and he's the headlights are flashing. And I'm like, I'm like, I said to Rob, I said, Do you think it's possible? I said, I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt. Like, do you think there's a short in the headlights? He's like, Oh no, he's definitely doing that on purpose.

SPEAKER_03 14:56

I'm like, damn, but yep, gets what he wants, and he gets his point across. Yes, yes, he does, so I'll give him that.

The Movie Quote Poll Breakdown

SPEAKER_00 15:07

Uh okay, Mark, let's go back. Now that we've gone back 18 times to try to whatever. Movie clips. What'd you say? You want to talk about movie clips?

SPEAKER_02 15:17

Um, I was uh I looked at the link that you had sent me, uh the the poll for the setting centered on uh you know nobody puts baby in a corner. Sure. And I um the absolutely was two votes. Uh imagine that it was you and Rob. Yeah. And on the no, there was seven votes. There's 70% said no that it wasn't enough.

SPEAKER_00 15:41

Uh well, okay. Hold on. Let's let's go to the tape. I'll pull it up again.

SPEAKER_03 15:47

There's stuff in the ballot box.

SPEAKER_00 15:49

Hey, we you know, this is we play a clean game here. Um shit, how the foul there it is. Now you go oh yeah, to this thing.

SPEAKER_02 16:05

I'm surprised Ryan don't have to tinkle with all that water noise in the back.

SPEAKER_00 16:08

It's driving me crazy. Um all right, so I see what you're getting at, Mark. Um but you still uh you're wrong. So the poll you're talking about was the one on Facebook.

SPEAKER_02 16:28

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 16:29

Yeah. Okay. That's it, okay. What the hell?

SPEAKER_03 16:35

What the sorry, I was checking the poll and I'm sorry. Apologies.

SPEAKER_02 16:39

You were checking the poll. Is my scripper up next?

SPEAKER_00 16:49

Okay, so you you made a point to bring this up, and then I just checked and I said, Oh, you were looking at the Facebook poll, and that's all you had to say is okay.

SPEAKER_02 16:58

Yeah, I I'm not gonna fight it. I just wanted to bring it up, be an asshole.

SPEAKER_00 17:02

Well, you should fight it if you feel like you're being, you know. No, uh-uh. Don't you want me to elaborate on what when I I just said it's the Facebook poll you're talking about.

SPEAKER_02 17:14

Right. But I don't know what what other poll was there that I didn't see.

SPEAKER_00 17:19

The YouTube poll.

SPEAKER_02 17:20

Oh, the YouTube poll. I didn't see that one.

SPEAKER_00 17:24

Well, two people did.

SPEAKER_02 17:25

Because you know, we only have we we only have one listener on YouTube, old tequila tits.

SPEAKER_00 17:29

Tequila tits. Uh I don't know if she voted though. I mean, I don't I don't know if I can tell. But um No, I I don't think she did. Okay. Well, two people. Jesus. Yeah. Did you hear that? Did you hear this bit when you were fast-forwarding through the last episode, Rob, with the poll?

SPEAKER_03 17:46

And after Yeah, the tiebreaker goes to the the pole master.

SPEAKER_00 17:50

And so I'm gonna get a second opinion here. Like, was he because he's doing it again right now, he won't admit it. He was pissed, wasn't he, that he lost the poll?

SPEAKER_03 18:00

Uh um I almost so yes, that was my initial intuition or my initial thought, but I maybe his he did say that his his mind's on other things, and I think it's more maggy.

SPEAKER_00 18:13

I agree with that. I totally agree with I in retrospect, and I didn't know that at that point. I agree. But now, yeah, here's what I'm saying. All right, I'm hearing it again. He's I think you're pissed, Mark.

SPEAKER_03 18:23

Yeah, he's acting a little edgy. So?

SPEAKER_01 18:28

No, fuck you, you're acting edgy.

SPEAKER_02 18:30

Yeah, fuck you guys. I'm done. Just make it the fucking RJ and Rob show. I'm leaving. Oh gosh.

SPEAKER_03 18:38

That didn't take long.

SPEAKER_02 18:39

No, that was real quick. I had like Yeah, that's what I've heard about you, Rob.

SPEAKER_03 18:44

It doesn't take uh well, yeah. Come on.

SPEAKER_00 18:49

Too easy.

SPEAKER_03 18:50

Don't call me shortcomings for nothing.

SPEAKER_00 18:52

Hey, that's Mark's name.

SPEAKER_03 18:54

Oh, yeah, that's right.

SPEAKER_00 18:55

I'm fault. I'm false and he's shortcomings. The show about our faults and shortcomings. Oh gosh. Okay, Mark. Um look, here's the deal. Um you're pissed about it, and that's fine. Yes. Yes. Oh, you're actually gonna admit it. That's cool. Um here here's the thing. Uh there is a poll on YouTube and there was a poll on Facebook. And I voted no. Or I'm sorry, yes, in both of them. Uh you had I I think you uh I think you called in some some people uh to pump your vote, um if I'm honest.

SPEAKER_02 19:40

Definitely on maybe I might have I might have posted it on Facebook excuse me, I gotta scroll forward. I might I might have posted it on Facebook.

SPEAKER_00 19:48

Which is that's fine. Yeah, yeah. So uh here's the thing is and I get that you were not really on your A game on the last episode because you had things on your mind. But when I pulled up the polls, I pulled up both of them side by side. I saw that potentially you'd won the one on Facebook, and uh the YouTube one was tied at at one vote each, and so that's all I mentioned because I was trying to bait you into you know being like, come on, there's more babies and we were gonna you know it's gonna be a funny thing. Uh but you gave up too easily. Um, and so you almost did again tonight. So, alright, so let's talk about the poll. Uh the unofficial poll because YouTube almost no, I'm just kidding. All right, so Mark is correct that the poll on Facebook. Um the question again is is Mark using nobody puts a baby in a corner too much? Uh the options were yes, yep, absolutely, for sure, totally, and no. So we got one vote for yes, two votes for absolutely, and seven votes. 70% of the vote for no. So you you win.

SPEAKER_02 21:03

Or I go to school, that still means I lost.

SPEAKER_00 21:08

What the hell does that mean?

SPEAKER_02 21:11

Anyway, on to the next subject. No, no, no. What do you mean? Yeah. I'm done with this one.

SPEAKER_03 27:56

So it's a bit of a stretch to call them performances, but okay.

SPEAKER_00 28:00

Yeah. Walker Texas Ranger is a rough show. He uh Well, yeah, but it was what, the 80s? That was the 90s. Um, yeah, I mean, even even by those standards though. Like, he does this thing. I had to stop watching eventually. It's probably just an autism ADD thing that most people wouldn't care about. But he does this thing where he like has these pause inhales when he's talking.

SPEAKER_00 39:11

Yeah, like different, not just like Windows, like different different types of browser, like different software.

SPEAKER_03 39:19

Different, yes. Wow, different software. I well, I I think because he's corrupted so many of them, he's had to go down the list to find new ones.

SPEAKER_00 39:29

Oh my gosh, that is so weird. Yeah. Okay. So those all did they all open like when your computer started? Is that what he meant? Uh-huh. Yeah. Okay. And where where did they go?

SPEAKER_03 39:44

SPEAKER_00 40:08

Oh, did you hear what Mark just dropped, but did you hear what he was saying before he dropped? The keyboard? Yep. Because he said you had to do a lot of cleaning up on the computer before you could use it.

SPEAKER_03 40:18

Oh, jeez. You know, I gotta give it to him. If it's uh, you know, if it's in that realm, he's right on it.

SPEAKER_00 40:27

Uh what realm? Oh, Mark's innuendo. Yeah. Oh, I know. He's uh he's got the specialty, if you will. Um yeah, so so not so a lot of pop-ups and nonsense and crap, but you you didn't have to navigate through any porn to get to clean feed.

unknown 41:09

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 41:10

Mark, you back? Yeah, I'm back. Okay, cool. Uh last thing Rob said before you dropped was I had to do a lot of cleanup on this computer before I could use it.

SPEAKER_02 41:28

I was smited.

SPEAKER_00 41:30

I was smote. Froppy's probably he's probably like set something up on his computer, you know. He's probably building his own AI in there. We're all fucked anyway, and one of the things is like it just detected that Mark was dissing him. It's like, boom, you're out.

SPEAKER_02 41:45

Yeah, feed nobody's gonna clean my feet, damn it. Clean your feet. Feed.

Incognito Mode Privacy Myths

SPEAKER_00 41:57

I'm not gonna I'm not gonna dignify that. I'm not gonna perjure myself. I'm not gonna perjure myself all over there.

SPEAKER_00 42:51

Let me ask you a question, Rob. Well, actually, I'll ask both of you. Um I'll start with Rob. When you do have stuff like that, even though it's your device and it's locked, do you still use like an incognito tab?

SPEAKER_03 43:06

Yeah, well damn it. So I don't have a VPN set up, and uh and Arizona's got similar uh loss to as Texas does. They banned the porn out there?

SPEAKER_00 43:21

Yeah, so that sucks. Yeah. Well, so that was a really okay. Mark?

SPEAKER_02 43:28

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 43:29

Yeah, me too. I don't know why, right? Yeah. Does it really do anything? It just all what it does, it just it just pr doesn't um put the history on your device. Uh it does absolutely nothing for uh privacy and your identity and stuff like that.

SPEAKER_03 43:54

It's just does it does it cache or it doesn't cash or anything, huh?

SPEAKER_00 43:58

Not on your device, yeah. So the history wouldn't be there. But like, you know, there's no it doesn't give you any privacy or anything. Um, it's just kind of like so when like for an example uh on on my devices, um if I didn't do that, then every time I went to type galin zip block bags, G A, suggestions for my history would be alarming. That's a joke about the word gay, Mark.

SPEAKER_01 44:39
