What a beautiful background I've got here for all the people
watching Lovely kitchen A. Door Airbnb A.
Little sink with a with a with a.
Little top of blue a little. Just a bit of just a.
Blue in the hair for the Teen Vogue party.
Yeah, I bought chucks. Yeah, I bought some.
Yeah, I bought some stuff. I'm here for 28 days.
Might as well make my life a little bit easier with a few
things like that. No chucks yet.
A. Lot of chucks.
It's worth it, I think every time.
It's every time I got one of those those brushes, those dish
brushes that have the little sponge in the end and you can
like clean stuff like that. Do you not normally have one of
those? I have one at home but no one
here so I it's like 4 bucks. I'll take it home with me.
I'm like too easy. That's worth it for the Why
bother trying to fit my lifestyle into this place when I
can, when I can, when I can make it my my lifestyle here.
Yeah, I like going grocery shopping when I would like go
stay in LA for like a week or two and I go to the grocery
store and I like, I get all my little things for like my little
kitchen. And it feels like a mixture of
like really pathetic, but also like exciting in a weird way
because I'm like, I get to make a little house, but then it's
like I'm very limited in what I have because like the place that
I would stay at, I would have very limited things.
Like I didn't have a microwave at this one hotel that I was
staying at. Thought I would have a
microwave. Yeah, I usually assume that.
Seems pretty standard. That's pretty standard, yeah.
But I had a mini fridge and a kettle, so I had to do
everything with a mini fridge and kettle.
So that was definitely. I had to get creative with
everything given the limitations.
Had to have a lot of like things that you add hot water to to
cook. Yeah, so all I've got is a
dishwasher here. So I've been cooking my I've
been baking, using it to bake some salmon in there, poaching
it. Oh, nice steam.
Yeah, yeah, it's been fun. Yeah, it's been fun here.
It's been fun. 20 more to go. It's like a boys trip, but it's
just you that's. What it feels like I'm like,
God, I would love to have someone else, someone else here
to talk to. God, that would be nice.
Just to check in with. How's the show?
Yeah, it was pretty good. Sweet.
Goodnight. Like something like that.
Instead, it's like I stare at myself in the mirror and I go,
why didn't you? You said in the show, you said
I'm going to do a British accent for this character.
I told the audience that. And then when I read the book, I
forgot and someone messaged me and went, where was the British
accent? I went, fuck.
That would be so they thought that was.
They probably thought that was intentional.
Attentive. Intent.
Very attentive audience. Turns out you know.
I would have thought that was like a bit like part of the bit.
This, this is the thing that that it is the kind of show
where anything I do that doesn't happen or anything that kind of
goes wrong is part of the bit. It works, but in my mind, it's
very it has to be intentional. I don't want to do anything
accidentally. It has to be intentional.
It's just. Of course it's.
Constant, of course, right? That's normal.
It's fun.
It's fun, but it's good to still be here on the Kelly at Pod.
I would never give this up, even at the expense of my.
Voice. I was worried.
I. Was worried.
We're not recording on our normal day guys.
So people who need routine, our routine is off right now.
It's a little later in the day. It's a different day.
It's fine. I'm in a different city.
If if you catch on to that, everyone, it's things that are
very different. It's a very different, you know,
Jared is, there's Jared is not here.
Jared's not here. Oh, that's Jared.
There he is. He's here.
I was trying to. I was going to be like Jared's
birthday today or something even even worse.
I heard you setting me up and I quickly went to unmute I.
Saw you don't. Get caught with my pants down
again. I don't need hope for that.
Jared's pants are off, You know, That's how this episode, that's
what's happening about this episode.
That's beauty, a podcast we don't want to have.
To. It's true.
It's very true. It's the top half.
Yeah. All right, let's do it.
Let's do it. Hello members of Caliot Nation.
We are back this week with a slightly different format due to
Elliot holding a microphone this week.
So we're going to do things a little different and.
I was going to bring like my my mic base is just so heavy and I
brought 2 suitcases worth of stuff.
And I was like, it's OK if you wanted to hold the mic.
I. Wanted to hold the.
Mic, it's OK if you wanted to hold the mic, I know you.
It's more conversational. I have a wireless one.
From next week on, I'll wear my I'll wear the little, the
neckmark, the lavalier. So it just like picks up like
the vibrations of like your vocal cords.
Yeah, it'll sound awful, but it means that I can design, and
that's what's important, right? Clip it onto like your glasses.
That could be. Good.
So it's like really super noticeable.
Yeah, really nasal in. Yeah, I'll put it right on my
right, Right in, right here, right here.
Yeah, right here. It's fine.
It works. But yes, I'm not.
Won't be visible at all. At all?
No, I am unable to use the computer today, thank God.
So Kel Kel's going to take the reins.
At this time, carry the torch. Yes, I carry the flame.
Carry the. I haven't heard that in a while.
It's been a bit a a. A bubble indicator.
True, true. For real.
So this week I'm happy to design because we're recording in the
middle of my Ritalin, still doing its thing.
So I'm down to design. I was designing all afternoon,
so I would really like to make something cool.
So that's what we're going to do.
And Ellie's just going to hang out and hold the microphone, so
I'm going. To be I'm going to give notes to
the entire time, like last week's.
Episode, please. I hope you guys did not think
that that was serious. That was that episode hasn't
even come out yet, but I'm like afraid that people will still
not think that we're joking. I kind of, yeah, I kind of
blocked it out of my memory that we recorded that one.
I'm like, I think it was fun. I think it was fun, but it was
scary. It was scary.
I I thought of so many jokes as
soon as we stopped recording so. That's always the case.
Always the case. You know, whatever.
Next time we'll script it. Yeah, true.
Yeah. But yeah, I'm, I'm excited to
watch you design. All right, well, let's go ahead
and open my freaking thing well. Let's do it.
Go for it, Cal. Oh, pressure.
OK, I and getting I'm getting down to the end of my moleskin.
It's like very sad. This is only the second moleskin
I've had since I started freelancing, so that's like.
You get the most. Six years I have my other one up
there, but that's my favorite one.
It's the a 9 by 12 grid moleskin.
What are your thoughts on the the dot grid?
I love the dot grid. I I I'm a.
Bit I don't have anything against it, I'm just autistic
and not good with change and I've just always liked this one.
Where's my wait? Where's my favorite pencil?
It's over here. The dot grid for me feels like
an excuse to play the the Dots and Lions game where you make
little boxes. Yes, yes, and I.
Love that game. I fucking love that game.
There's a game on the Nintendo Switch called 50 Classic Board
Games, I think, or something like that.
It's just like a bunch of, it's like chess card games, like a
bunch of stuff, but it's like quite, it's very well made the
game like very well designed. One of the games is dots and
boxes or lines in, but whatever it's called and you play against
like expert computer computers and it's like you just end with
a draw every if you both if you're both locked in, turns out
that game can't really have like a a winner.
Sometimes you can just kind of end up with with always a draw,
but God it's fun. Does that also have the the the
baseball? Yes, yes, you've seen, have you
seen the Northern Lion clip of him playing that?
Yeah, getting with the curveball.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So good.
No, that's yeah. That's the funniest thing about
that game. It goes from like very real,
very normal games. And then at the very end there's
like toy baseball, toy basketball, toy soccer, and
you're like, oh, sick. OK.
And they were really fun. I think I'm pretty sure I've
seen a real life version of that toy baseball.
Game, OH. So I see that, yeah.
It's it's a cool concept. Oh, I like this underline
already. I like where we're going here.
This is nice. Oh, thanks guys.
Yeah, this is quite a job my. Pleasure really into underlines.
Yeah, I think it's something I've never do, something I avoid
incessantly. And I like that you're using the
built in underline and not making it with a rectangle.
I like that you. I appreciate that.
Because if I move it like, I would just like leave it behind
and then I'm like, wait, what happened to that line?
And then I have like a random line.
So true, so true. If you use the Everything tool
though, you could still do an underline.
What? The shape.
The shape the. The the everything tool.
Hey, what is this KA Kelliot reference that I that I think I
coined because. That you coined guys, can we
bully this K? Really.
Yeah, this is grim. What is this font?
Not curious ends. Interesting.
I like that the uppercase is kind of curved.
Yeah, that's that's bizarre. This is a very sharp font and
I'm like, let's check in a curved.
I like that that not curious ends.
I love doing a little. This is a little trick Mike
Carney taught me is to if you want to make something really
unique, just swap like one or two letters out to be a
different font. Like for this for example this I
could switch to Windsor. Right.
So like the same energy, basically the same font, but
it's not. Yeah.
Yeah, I like that. That's fun.
And it's just like a way to just make it a little off.
It almost like simulates like a, a kind of like hand drawn, A
handmade approach where you're like, what typesetting is that
the word when you get like the, you've got the page and you
scratch. That's not the word.
What is it? The one where you you scratch on
the letter, you draw on the letters from the page.
Etching. I don't think it's etching.
It's like there's like a thin sheet and you kind of print
imprint them on. Oh.
You know what I mean? I don't know what that's called,
but I know what you're talking about.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, it's very like you get a
book and that has like 3 different as and you get to use.
Once you use one, it's done, it's over, which I think is so
fun. I'd make a good YouTube video I
feel. Yeah.
I have to make a video while I'm down here.
Figure that out. Elliot, why do you do this to?
Yours, you know, you know, it's Yeah, I think I was like, oh,
I'll get bored when I've just when you just go nothing on
apart from a show at 7:40 every day.
You do like I was like, I'll work on the show for the first
week and then I'll probably be happy with it and figure it out.
And I think that's that is the that is the case because I'll
have I'll have time. I just want, I honestly just
like I'm so tired. I just want to do my regular
day. I want to go to my gym.
I want to, I want to have my smoothie.
There's no way. To jam I.
Want to go to my jam? Not me doing 50 push ups
backstage just before I go on because I'm wearing a singlet on
the show, Yeah. That's yeah, really.
Fun real to get a pump. It's in character as far as I'm
concerned. It's in the world of the
character, right? It's worth it.
It also gets me.
I usually do some kind of like I used to do shadow boxing, but
there's not enough room because I want to get into like an
insane state of mind. So don't bow your head.
This is perfectly normal behaviour.
I'm not I I'm just trying to. I'm visualizing you in the
space, wanting to do shadowboxing, throwing a few
punches, realizing there's not nearly enough room to shadowbox.
And then push ups do it. I didn't do 50 push ups instead.
Well, because I'm like literally like behind, like there's no
backstage. There's like just a curtain and
I'm like just behind the curtain And like it would you would hear
the rustling. Do you think they can see the
shadow of your body? I don't know under the curtain I
I'm like under the like there's a stage, so I'm like below the
stage, but I know that when I go up, when I raise you could
probably if there was a shadow, you would just see like a the
tiny bit of like my head and back just going up and down.
And I really hope, I really hope no one can see that.
That would be insane, but also hilarious and very much in.
I want to. Maybe on the closing I'll do
them. I'll just do them on stage at
the start of the show as they're all coming in, yeah.
If it comes up, you just. Get in.
I'm just that might be fun actually, just people walking in
and I'm just doing just non-stop push ups until I tie myself.
I do think like, a big part of doing shows is for me, getting
on stage as quickly as possible because as soon as I get on
stage, I break any kind of like, OK, there they are, you know,
like there they are, here I am. I don't need to like, I lose all
the nerves and I'm like, OK, we're doing it now.
And I think I do like it. I mean, I don't know.
I watched the show the other night.
I've only seen one show here so far.
And they had people. It was a player.
It was a comedy play. And they had people on stage at
the start. And it just went on for like, it
took a while to get everyone in. There were a few light comers
and there was this one guy on stage doing a lot.
He was really trying to hold the space for it.
And it was kind of like it was a small crowd, so no one in a
small space, so no one knew if they were allowed to talk or
not. So everyone kind of just went
silent while this guy was on stage doing silent vocal warm
ups and silent like acting stuff.
And I was like, huh, this is this is not the intended, but
we're meant to be talking. We're meant to be doing this.
But it's like right now it feels like this is the show.
So it's a tricky kind of line to play with, but I don't mind it
overall. I think it's fun.
Hey guys, how do you spell intelligence real quick?
INTELLIGENCE. Thank you.
No worries. I did not want to misspell that.
You've you're missing the 1st letter of both Kel.
You're missing the A and the I the most.
Important thing is Kel. Kel.
Kel, we're on camera. Kel, we're on camera.
Hey, this is being recorded. Kel, cut this part.
Jared, cut this part. This is embarrassing.
You're right in the middle.
Just bang yeah, this you know, this podcast needs more smash
cuts. Just a real jarring bang move on
Oh, that's a nice a oh with the curve of the me.
Do not talk to me about artificial intelligence.
I like it. So let's talk about it while
we're designing the. That's fine.
You guys can that the word art is in artificial intelligence.
I think that's a real you can't spell artificial without art.
How many of the worst person you know has that and like their
yeah, yeah, their bio on like fucking LinkedIn.
That I might have to put that into.
There's a moment in the show where I reference that my gut,
like my character has made a T-shirt and is making his own.
His only source of income is the royalties from that T-shirt, and
right now it's Comic Sans in the straights times.
You Roman in the shades. But I think you can't spell
artificial intelligence. That art is funnier.
That's pretty good. Yeah, that's pretty good.
I want to. Make it because the character's
a loser, so it's like, I want it to be very kind of real NFT guy.
He's just a fucking loser. He's just a fucking.
Loser. I love playing an absolute loser
on stage. I love it.
It's really, it's really endearing to for myself, I feel.
I feel good about it. It's fun.
People seem to respond well to it.
They pity me, I think. Yeah.
A little bit, a little bit. But I think that I think at this
point last year, people were like, is this real?
Like, this might actually just be Elliot this year.
They'll I can tell they think it's a character and I'm glad.
I'm grateful for that. I'm very grateful for that.
It's probably because I pull out a hardcover copy of the book and
it's literally just the a a four piece of paper taped onto 1 of
Molly Baz's cookbooks. Of course, Molly, Baz mentioned.
Molly Baz mentioned. Great book.
It's good. Good colour.
That red really pops off. Oh yeah, really pops off.
It's lovely. What about instead of?
I'll freak out, I'll freak it, you know I'll freak it.
I took her to my penthouse and I freaked it.
She tucked a bad AI and then I freaked it.
I'd love to take an italicized font and then make it like
normal or like a. Slate back.
That's cool. Let's Kern this.
Have we addressed Episode 19? We haven't, Have we?
No, it just came out. OK, I just want to say.
Address me. I hate that gift so much.
That fucking? Elephant.
I hate opening the comments and seeing I'm like oh get this
elephant off my screen. No, the, the most perfect use of
it is that when like the Kevin Durant, the Kevin Durant files
came. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And the the the person who replied to his duty was
addressed me, she can see what was talking about.
He's like, oh, so you guys hate the trophy?
That was crazy. The Rockets have been playing
like ever since as well. So unbelievable.
What a character, what a. Character, that guy is come
home, Kevin Durant come to DC. Retire Kevin Durant.
Retire in Washington? Yeah, the where was I going
there? Oh, episode 19.
Yeah. So episode 19 is I, I am Mr.
Thumbnail. I am Mr. Title, and they call me
that because I've never missed a thumbnail.
I've never missed a title. And unfortunately, I can no
longer have that name because I I did.
I fell asleep the other night. It was the first night of being
in Melbourne. I was working on my show all day
after and then flew to Melbourne, worked on my show
more. I had a big To Do List.
The Kelly thumbnails were on that and I just didn't even
didn't even cross my mind. I was that geeked out at the end
of the day and I I messed up. What actually ended up happening
was that it's performing better than most of our recent
episodes. Click through is through the.
Roof absolutely through the roof.
I was thinking about updating it after it kind of leaves the
Kelly audience and kind of starts being promoted to other
people. No, still high, still high.
People still appear to be clicking on it even when even if
they they may have never seen a Kelly video before.
There is just something so it it, I think it's episode.
There's something specific about the number episode.
I don't think episode 20 would have done as well.
Something like episode 19. It just sits.
And again, it's not even episode 19.
It's this episode 19 since we started working with Jared.
But like, people don't necessarily know exactly when
that probably started happening. Yeah.
So it's even more confusing. So I wonder if people thought it
was maybe from, like the archives.
Yeah, from like when we actually did Episode 19 pulled.
One out of our ass. Yeah.
It's just episode 19. So it had no thumbnail
originally, right? As well you made one?
Really. Quick.
No, it was just an automated screen grab from YouTube.
You know what, let's keep it, let's keep it up.
Let's just do that mystery box every episode.
You just won't know what the episode is.
But I like it. Now with the thumbnail, it
actually looks really quiet. I actually like looking at the
title. It's a good combo.
But yeah. Because it's like.
I want to fuck up again. Never, never, never, never,
never. Because it's important.
It's important. Thumbnail Thumbnail thumbnail
design is. It's a job.
You see what I know? It's a job and we're rapidly
losing work as thumbnail designers to AI.
That's what people don't talk about.
We are we are at the the 1st to go when I first the first
creatives to go a thumbnail designers.
It's brutal. It's absolutely brutal.
It is a job. It is a real job.
I get emails from them all the time.
Hey, your thumbnail needs work. I'm like, look at all these
thumbnails I've met. OK, cook I've.
Worked for all these people. I'm like, all right.
That always does feel like such the one of the toughest parts of
outreach is just like, how do you politely approach not in our
instance, but someone being like, hey, you're doing a great
job, I could do a better job. Yeah, yeah.
It's all it. No matter what, it sounds
condescending when I read it, it's always like, love what
you're doing, but like, hey, let's let's be honest, you could
be doing better. And I'm like, I think I'm doing
all right. What do you know about?
That. Yeah, I love.
I feel like I might have mentioned this before, but the
the Loom, I think it's called Loom, which is a screen record
audio. Yeah, it's like a you can record
yourself and I'll occasionally get a little loom video in my
e-mail being like, hey, have you ever considered making online
community like a paid community? It'll be like, what is this?
And there's a loom link, all right?
And it's a 5 minute video of some guy who's made a full on
paid community with like different tiers, draft courses
and all this stuff. And he's like, just say yes and
I'll make it for you bro. Just say yes, you and he's like
at the start first month I'll give you all the profit and then
I'll then I'll decide on the split.
Like that's how serious I am about this bro.
And I'm always like, you know, I've never engaged.
Stand up for yourself. Bro Yeah, honestly, it's a bit
like know your worth. It's like, it's like, I don't
really, you know, it's a bit weird.
This is you're doing too much. This is a lot because it's like,
it's like there was somebody who did it to me recently with them.
They made a whole merch line for me, a whole 4.
They made four products and it was, it was so it was just like,
like what, what, what, why, Why have you made 44?
Like you don't even know if I'm if I want this, you just just
you know they'll send like 5 follow-ups and every time it'll
be like just reply no if you don't want, if you want to stop
hearing from him just say no. Just please give me closer and
just say no. That's tough, man.
That's freaking tough. And it's just a hoodie with my
My Little Star logo plastered all over it.
I'm like, this is not the energy.
We've got different ideas of what like I would want to put
out to the world. Hello public domain detectors.
How do I think? You may go, I'll just be here.
Nope. You're gone.
Oh, I'm just over here. AI Chad face.
Computer. Dumb puter.
Oh my God. Asking computer to find a
computer. I this is one of my favorite
styles of graphics. That's unreal.
That looks like it's been made in PowerPoint.
That's fantastic. Do you hear George?
Tell me what? Time I had a little bit out
there that's great That's like so that's like a superhero with
the glosses that's sad it. Is it is so PowerPoint coded?
Yeah, the gradient film, Unreal, the just so many like I love
that the the the geek is incredibly 2 dimensional.
And then the laptop, they were like, you know what, fuck it,
let's give, let's, let's outline the geek.
Really love that the geek was 2 dimensional.
Two-dimensional gradient geek. This is awesome.
Oh, which one's AI? And the premium ones, I wonder,
Because these look legit. These all look legit.
This diva, Oh my God, Oh my goodness, Oh my God, what the
hell? That's mine.
Immediately. That's a coming secretion.
Yeah. Really perverted.
Oh, a little computer chip, I reckon.
This is why hard drives are $10 billion.
That's the geek. Same as the geek.
I think the premium ones are the AI ones.
These are great. These are all just regular.
No, the the worse the better. Like I need wait it was.
Oh my God, leaking. I hate that.
I don't like that. I just like leaking.
Kind of looks like it's leaking like battery acid or?
Something. It grows.
I like the. Crying that's.
Fun. Yeah, that's funny.
Oh, hi, George. OK, I'm going to need you to be
normal. I'm begging you.
Begging you. Thank you.
My God. Wait.
This deep. This one.
That's just is that someone? Is that a puss?
Come on, that's like. That's crazy.
Man using MPC, fucking thing I've ever seen it went alive
this is. More art than AI ever will be.
Absolutely. That's.
Hilarious. That's right.
So what are we looking at? OK, I.
Don't know. We'll know when we say it.
This is awesome. This is like one of my favorite
websites. I've never seen this first
before. This is fantastic.
Publicdomainvectors.org It's a gold mine of just bullshit in
the best way I. Love, there's an upload button
in the top right so just anyone can Chuck Chuck it up.
You can just go fuck it. Oh my God.
Oh. God, let's see, anger.
Every everything here looks like something the Public Library
would use for a design or like a newsletter or a flyer.
These are great. They're dog.
That's the best part about. It so good.
I really like that. Yeah, that kind of goes crazy.
You mean grab this diva? My style rage emoticon in the
top right. Bring those back.
I used to love that shit. MI gusta, MI gusta Jared, MI
gusta. That's it.
Let's see what do I got on that Give me give me something to
search here so it'll give me an insane but relevant.
Relevant. Something relevant maybe like?
Destruction. Something smashing like
something I'm like smashing something, you know, like
destruction. Maybe Jackhammer?
Jackhammer, OH. My God, this diva.
Uh, do you guys, are you guys familiar with the falling metal
pipe sounds or have you gotten that?
Oh yeah, love the falling metal pipe.
Where was it? I was in the store the other
day. I was somewhere and like a metal
pipe fell on the floor. It sounded exactly.
I don't. I don't think Matt was with me.
I don't remember where I was. It really did something.
It made me really happy. Yeah.
Smash. Here we go.
Oh, slay. Is that woman kicking a
swastika? Yeah.
Yeah, woke public domain vectors.
OK, A. Lot of swastikas here.
Vitamin D smashes cancer. Wow.
What an interesting depiction of cancer though and and vitamin D
just having you wouldn't know it's just a that's just a yellow
circle with a big D on it. It's not.
We got smashing capitalism here. Wow, putting like.
Putting it in the bin. Neo Nazi shit in the trash.
OK, from the domain vector. Break the trash.
I'm probably going to have to censor those, I think.
Oh really? Well, I'm thinking it'll be
fine. Actually, probably not.
That's true. That is true.
It is true even. And it's even.
It's just I always think I'm like, I'm like, does YouTube
really check? Does YouTube really?
Do we have enough trust? Do we have enough trust built
in? Wasn't that one time I said the
C word and we got demonetised? Yes.
Yeah, I can't say that word anymore.
Stop, stop, stop. Yes, look at this.
OK. Great PNG, read them beautiful.
Oh my God. Wait, it's literally called Geek
SVG. Geek dot SVG is so good.
I love that. That's a vector.
I can't believe that's a vector. That's sick.
Hey, why is it in like the top right of the frame there?
That's funny. Oh, that works well with the
Geek Johnny automatic anger. Oh, you saved that one.
Yeah, I saved the perverted computer.
I needed it. That's nuts.
OK Oh oh, interesting. Why is it only part of it?
That is bizarre. Very bizarre.
OK, I guess no more perverted computer.
Oh, what if I put the? What if I put this on the
folder? Perspective warp it's.
Like a little small. I really like that folder.
Yeah, it is a tricky. Message.
I really like this folder. It's got like a really nice
gradient art. It's got a drop shadow.
Oh. I.
Love the geek. Yeah, these are a great
selection. They're so wildly different from
each other. That's the best part.
You have found 5 SVGS with completely different styles and
that everyone is how they can be united to be the same style you
see. I am very excited to see how
you're going to sort of consolidate the the feel of
this. Oh, these guys don't even know.
They don't even know. I don't even know what I'm
capable of. I don't.
Even fucking know. No, I, I, I I don't.
Even fucking know. I think I do.
I don't even know. I know what you're capable of.
That's why I'm. So no, I don't.
Even know I don't even know I. Don't even know.
I don't even. Know I've never known.
George is licking his like, if you see my shoulder moving, he's
licking his foot and his head's right under my elbow.
He keeps hitting my arm up. I'd love.
To have a cat in this apartment, that would be nice.
Actually coming home from a comedy show.
Maybe that's what I should do next time try and cat sit for
like a month. Rent a cat.
Yeah, that's probably the the easiest way I've done going
about it. That'd be fun.
Hello. Meow, meow, meow.
Oh, the show was good. Meow, meow, meow.
I meow several times in this show.
Several times. It's thrilled.
Really checks out. Yeah, I really, I really took
all the things that I liked doing in my last show, which was
meowing going, yeah. Meowing.
And just doing, I do that a lot. Meow, meow, I make a joke about
there's a moment where our lead character is to put in, let's
say put in the intimate and intimate design is a romantic
scene. And just before things get
really heated, this is in the book he he realizes the day is
about to be over and he hasn't made a poster for his 365 day
poster project. And she doesn't understand.
She doesn't, she's like, she's like, why?
Why didn't you just post tomorrow and say it was an
accident? And he's like.
No, honey, we have other things to do.
Honey, you have to touch me tomorrow.
Cats waiting for dinner. Meow, meow, I can hear them now.
Because that's how the algorithm works is it's all time based and
now yeah, interest. Based it definitely, yeah, it
definitely won't, you know, posting at 11:57 PM versus your
usual time at like 11:00 AM Post it.
Post when everyone's asleep. That's what that's what they
that's what they always say. Kill a post before it has time
to, you know, to to blow up. It's a good it's good strategy.
Oh. I hate that.
That was what was that? Hated it.
Ugly, ugly. Photocopy graphic pen.
I don't like that. I'm exhausted.
I need to like, yeah. I'm so glad I'm not designing,
this is quite pleasant. This is what the viewers
experience every week for the most part, unless they're
designing. What me not designing?
No, not designing and getting to watch.
It's true, it's true. And getting to watch.
I do think I feel like I are going to be err on the side of
most of our like most of our audience design with us or are
working in some capacity. I think which I like it's how
it's how we get through our Mondays.
I just looked to the space where my camera usually is and it
wasn't there. How is it instinct to look at
the camera and it was not there you're.
Just meant to be a YouTube. I'm born and raised as a
YouTube. It was always, always.
It was made out for me, always made for me.
So good. I see.
Now. Do you see Jared?
Oh, it's all coming. Together.
I'm fond of it. I'm not fond of it, guys.
Really interesting, I think it looks cool.
No, I knew it was going to come together, but I'm always, I was
really, I was really excited to see the approach.
The old bit of noise, black and white, make it look like it was
printed. It's a good, it's a good tactic.
It's Evergreen. It is guys.
I'm working on my first Zine. It's not for me.
It's pretty crazy. Oh.
But for the first time I am doing a Zine.
Does a Zine require the entire design to be on?
Like a piece of paper that you can then fold usually.
Usually, OK, well, it's I guess it's like that's classic
bookmaking. You would have one giant sheet
that's folded into the book. But I don't think it has to.
I don't think it needs to be. I could be wrong.
No, I was just. I think it's just probably the
easiest way to do it, yeah. You can do it a couple different
ways. Are you enjoying making?
Said Zane. Oh yeah, MM, Carney said that
I've never made a Zane before because I've always been
employed, because I'm working with him on it.
And I was like, I've never made a Zane.
Like, is that OK? And he was like, yeah, because
you've always had a job. That's good.
I want to steal that one. That's funny.
That's a very good joke. I know I just it is this is.
Incredibly true, I was. Actually.
Surprised. I feel like you would have.
I'm surprised you have a magazine I feel like.
Oh, thank you. So you.
So I give off unemployed energy. No, no, no, no, no, no you.
Know like it's a it's I feel like it's like a because you
you've. It's in my political sphere.
Yeah, and you've released like Prince before.
Yeah, I feel like the Zane is a natural step.
It's a natural progression, you'd think, but you know.
For a client A, does this mean it's a musician?
An artist is releasing A Zane Huh?
This client I am very very grateful for because they want
to do freaky ass shit. Yeah.
And nobody wants to do freaky ass shit anymore dude.
That's so fun. It's a cool stuff.
Do you know when it will? When you'll be able to talk
about it, like when it will come out.
It's when the band starts tour, so that's in the summer.
The Band. OK.
So a summer, we'll get to see more of it in the summer and we
won't ask any more questions. In the summer of time when the
weather is hot. To who it could possibly be.
It's a Kelliot Zine. It's cool though.
Surprise. We made a Zine.
Surprise, surprise. I could show you guys.
It's a fish chest Zine I. Bought this pack.
It's a Rezo pack. Oh.
From Bracken. Oh wow.
I really like it. Yeah.
Because it's just kind of like a A1 click situation.
Oh oh oh I want this. Yeah, yeah, I know.
Oh, that's great. Awesome.
Oh, that is fantastic. Yeah.
Fuck. Damn.
So what you can do is like it. It sets it to multiply.
Is this just affecting the entire?
How's it working? What does it affect?
What is it adding? It's a layer styles.
And it's just, oh wow, it's just replacing what was already
there? Or is it adding a copy?
Oh, I, I made a copy. So like if we're here, it just
stacks 2 colour overlays on top of a pattern.
Amazing. And then just clicking it
changes. Yeah, it just automatically does
it for you. That is very cool.
That is very very cool. What a smart way of doing this.
I would have never thought to have used a pattern overlay to
create like a noise. Effect yeah, it's really handy
because then you could just set it to hard mix, which gives you
a really intense thing and then you can do a color overlay to to
Gray to just Gray out the tones and then you could do another
color overlay of screen to make it.
I mean you don't even have to buy the pack, but it's it's I
really have been enjoying it. But yeah, so it's like easy,
easy texture stuff. But I do think that pattern
scale is too big. But that's gorgeous.
Yeah. I like doing this.
And then like, that's it. I multiply.
Right now. It's very.
Affordable too, yeah. How much is it?
I I've super, is it called Super Rezo?
From Bracken. From Bracken there's I see it
here for $29.00. There's a personal and a
commercial one, but it's been like, I don't normally recommend
plug insurance very often, but that's just been like a nice, I
can use it as like a jumping off point to do what I'm doing right
here just so I can kind of make things crunchy really quickly.
Yeah. Oh, there's a there's a Super
Rezo 2 as well. Oh, there's a sequel.
There's a sequel? The Squeak Wall.
Look at our little geek A. Little geek.
They're side by sides of real Rizzo.
Rizzo's are are impressive. Yeah, I think it would look sick
on like a big scale as well as like these little such a nice
like crunchiness to it. It's lovely.
Yeah. What size canvas are we working
on here by the way? Kill out of cure?
What's your usual for this? 8 by 10300. 24th by three.
That's cool. And then what I will do right
here, actually, I got to start working on my type because I
want to fuck around with my type a little bit, but what I will do
is just to get freaky right here.
Oh well, that made it really scary when it didn't have the
pupil in the eye. Is bracken Australian?
I don't know if he's American. Because I just got the pop up to
sign up for the newsletter, said the option to say no.
It said no thanks mate. And I was like, that's.
Could be British, Could. Be British.
British mention. But the the bracken on a bracken
phones I found all over the world.
I thought it was maybe an Australian?
Australian plant. It looks pretty strange.
Bracken super design. Bracken dot design.
Where did my where did my dork go?
Oh, I accidentally turned him off.
OK, where? Did Where did my dork go?
This is Geek. This is Dork.
This is Diva. Dork.
Diva Geek Geek. I feel like Bracken is
Australian. This feels based on a up.
I'm Tim and I once got caught nibbling command be a paper by
my uni tutor uni. But a up is very like.
That's how that's what Martin says to me when he emails me.
He goes a up. So that's good movies from the
Isle of Man. Can confirm, I've not.
I'm not accustomed to a. Up a up hey, up this very
bridge. Yeah.
Yeah, EY, up. Hey up.
Hey, up. Oops.
I'm trying to let stuff breathe a little bit more.
I feel like I tend to cram too much in for the sake of it
making it really like for to make it feel like it's more
cohesive just to cram everything together.
Yeah. And the contact page says say
hello and an entire little bit I'm just says or a up.
What is that of the a up? That's so funny.
Hey up, Hey up. Maybe we can identify his
location by identifying where the bracken plant comes from.
Well, that's what I was looking into, but it was it's, it's kind
of. He has a YouTube channel, I'm
sure you could go watch his YouTube channel and ID it from
his accent. That's very true.
That is very true. Or or.
We just keep. Playing, yeah.
Or we could, or we could keep seeing if more mentions of a up
and then figure it out based on a up, a up, I reckon.
UK based, I feel that's my theory.
That's my theory. Lock it in based on the amount
of warm clothing in the That's that is literally what I that's
good in a way. Yeah, Yeah, that is how I'm
going to. I have never seen Bracken design
before. I will give a follow.
Back Oh, his ads get me like crazy on Pinterest.
Yeah, I'm going to get more like textures and stuff.
And it's, it's cool. I appreciate it.
Nice link tree as well. Really nice link tree on
Bracken. I got to get a link tree.
I think I'm going to go back to link tree.
Yeah. I had my own custom website that
I was trying to build on what Kaga and I just like.
The other thing I think I went on the the the mythical link
tree. I was like, this is nice.
They've got some cool new features that make the like the
layout look quite nice. And I did some work with
Lingtree was I think they were one of my first sponsored posts
I ever did back in like 2021. And as part of that, I got a
lifetime pro Lingtree account that I forgot.
I thought it was like 2 years and I checked the other day and
I was still on the pro and I went oh sick lifetime pro that
I'm not utilizing. I think I'm currently using a
flow desk one because I did work with flow Desk that
contractually I had to use their website for a year.
All the stuff that goes on behind the scenes, all these,
all these deals, you just get locked into stuff.
Oh yeah, years. Not that long.
And. Then I Lord knows you do.
I do, I should I really? I'm very good at going.
Yeah, Yeah, we can do a year of a website of my main website
being a photos, yeah. I could do a video while I'm
doing. I'm doing my comedy show on
another city. Yeah, I could do that, yeah.
Otherwise I won't make one. That's that's like the issue.
I feel like I just I need like some kind of deadline, some kind
of deadline to just push back against relentlessly.
Sorry it's a week late. You'll get it though, you'll get
it. Yet another client I'm working
with who wants the scripts before I start filming and I'm
like you have just guaranteed A2 month delay in the process of
this video just. For asking.
That delay will not be made in time thanks to that one thing.
It's not how I work, man. You get the finished products
and then we make notes. Otherwise I'll start to hate it.
I'll start to hate it because it's like, what do you, what do
you, what do you mean? You're going to, you're going to
like give notes on a script When you, when you don't know what
it's what it sounds like, the music, you, the, the jokes, it's
just words. It needs the whole, the whole
package. It's very important.
This is looking good, Kel. This is looking.
Really good. It's like you're that Black Keys
poster you made. Yeah, the the big the listing
party kind of thing that you post I.
Feel I've been really working in that in that vein lately and
I've been having a lot of fun with it.
Like I doing those Black Keys posters is so fun.
Yeah. And also because Mike Carney
rips me a new asshole every single time we work on one.
But I I enjoy it because nobody else will challenge me.
Right? In a way that I allow, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Otherwise they just piss me off
because otherwise I'm like who The Who the fuck are you?
Don't talk to me like that ever again.
That's so funny. I love that.
But I will, I will, I will let
him be a thorn in my side. Yeah, you need people like that.
I don't have anyone like that. I'm out of control.
I'll do that. You need like it has to be, it
has to be the right person. Otherwise, like my rule is, you
know, like feedback without consent is harassment.
Yeah, and I think it gets to a point where it's like like I
like I feel like when I'm making like when I'm getting notes on
like videos from like a a sponsor about like the comedy of
the video, like hey, can we make this part?
Like can we do this? We think it'll make it funnier.
And I'm like with all like, Oh yeah, with no due, you think?
It's going to make it funnier. Yeah, yeah.
It's like I, I think I know what I'm doing.
Like I like, it's just, it's mind boggling.
Absolutely mind boggling. Yeah.
It's like that's not what we're here for.
You meant to give me notes? Just tell me if I'm saying the
name of the laptop, correct? Fuck.
Just make sure I said the code enough times like.
God, that's all. That's what you mean.
Yeah, no, he's like been integral in like pushing me as a
designer because like as a freelancer, like the only
feedback I get is from like project managers and I'm like,
what the fuck do you know? Yeah.
I don't want feedback from you. You have e-mail job so but for
him I, I, I will allow it because I respect his.
Opinion and I guess to the point then it's like when you've got
too many different opinions coming through and it all gets
meddled up and it's just confusing and it's like there's
no trust involved. I feel like so much of it is
just trust, especially when the notes are given during the
process. I think that is what I like.
I I understand why one would give notes like Jur as it's
happening, like to potentially, like make it more efficient.
So like you don't get caught up with massive things that need to
turn that off. What is that, Jared?
Turn that off. Turn that off.
Whatever that sound was, turn it off right now.
Yeah, I was. Having a beautiful speech,
right? There, I just had a moment.
That was Jared's alarm. I just I set a 45 minute alarm
for the design. Just OK, good to.
Know it's been 45 minutes, yeah. You're doing.
OK, I'll wrap it up. No, no, there's no no wrap up.
But I just that was sort of just to give a sense of of time,
sorry. It's good to know.
It's good to. No, no, it's OK.
What? Time.
Does everybody wake up in the morning?
I'm curious. I don't usually question 6610.
Oh yeah. I was supposed to get up at 7:00
this morning and I woke up at 10:03.
What did you what happened? Did you sleep through the alarms
or was it more of a just just sleepy?
I, I don't know, I, I have like this, I feel like I've talked
about it on here, but like, I have like this mystery illness
that I've had for years and years and years where like
sometimes I will just get unbelievably tired and like I
have like flu like symptoms for like a day.
And it's usually preceded by a lot of stress.
And due to my situation, I was telling you guys about off
camera, it's caused me a lot of stress in the past couple of
days. That's not going to work.
So hello, I just got an insane text from Mike Carney.
That's hilarious. Speak of the devil.
But yeah, so it's been making me extra sleepy the past couple
days. But even though I had like so
much work to do this morning and I was just like.
Well, it's always those days there where it's just like, fuck
what happened to me the other day.
I, I, I set an alarm for like 7. I was like, you'll get up,
you'll work on the show. It's opening night.
I woke up at 11. I was like, all right.
I was like, I think my body need my.
I always just interpret it as a way of like taking the guilt
away. Yeah, my body need it.
That was my body telling me I needed more sleep.
And I'm like, that's that makes me feel a bit better because
otherwise I just go like, oh, you should have had the
discipline to wake up. Well, well.
You don't have any discipline. The only reason I can get up at
like 6 is because the gym class I want to go to is at 6:30 and
if I like and it's it's good. I look for I'm like I'm I'm
looking forward to it. So it like makes it easier to
get up. But otherwise like I would be
getting up at at 8910 for sure, but suddenly I need.
Something to get out of bed. Like if I don't then I'm usually
in bed till like 10 or 11. Yeah, I'm aimless.
I'm just like and I hate here because I don't have my like
alarm and stuff. I've got my phone and it means
that my phone I sleep next to my phone and I have I don't do that
at home. It's.
Disrupting my whole system. Yeah, and I I just, it just
happens I just half an hour minimum on my phone in the
morning, even though everything is blocked somehow half an hour
pass is part time flies when you're like tired sleep with the
phone in the other room everyone.
I cannot recommend it more. It is truly the best thing I've.
Ever. I've been knitting in the
morning, like when I get up and like I'll make coffee and then
I'll get back in bed and knit, which is a dangerous game
because like I'll, I'll just sit in bed and I'll have like the
cats like sleeping next to me. Like that's like when I post my
pictures every morning of Benny, like sleeping on me.
That's because I'm knitting and I'm like drinking my coffee and
it's like so peaceful. But then I will stay there for
like 3 hours. Oh, did.
You ever want to get up? That sounds lovely.
Yeah, exactly. And that's what I'm saying.
Like, well, I'm doing something that's good for my brain.
I'm not on my phone. I'm just like listening to music
or listening to an audio book and I'm hanging out with my.
Cat. Like, yeah, like, I'm having
such a I'm watching the birds out the window.
That sounds lovely. Like the sun is shining,
cortisol at record low levels. So, like, you want me to come
sit here? Yeah.
And do this do they shit? I was like, am I making a poster
about me freaking the fuck out? Anyway, how are how are you
feeling guys? I can't.
Be opening card packs right now. Just one, just one.
It's my daily pack. Oh my God, he's addicted.
Guys, it's the bingo. It's the bingo.
He needs us to acknowledge oh. My God, hold on.
Swipe this open. Wow.
Come on. The the.
The Purgatory. Is that a good poll?
What does that mean? That's the.
Most desirable God in the entire all.
Right. Anyway.
We have a clip. That's crazy.
That's insane. So who is she?
That's mega gengai EX shiny. Damn.
That's a shiny mega gengai EX. That's insane huh?
Wow wow. Can you see how much my mood has
changed? I'm so glad that's what's lifted
your mood. Oh my God, it's going to be a
good day. You know what?
We should keep this streak going.
I'm going to spend $30 on the game right now.
What? Wow.
Leave while you're up. I cannot believe that.
From 2016 there's a mega Gengar EX on eBay for 10,000 USD.
Save mega. You know how much this one's
worth. Nothing. $0.00 in APSA 10 it's
but still, you know, still I'm elated.
Absolutely. I'm, I'm, I can't believe it.
I cannot believe that. Well, that's sick.
I'm going to tell everyone I know this is ominous.
Or I will or I will. Or I will freak it.
Or I will. Freak.
I will freak it. Or I will take you to my
penthouse. And I will freak it.
Yeah, it's gross. There's a few moments in my show
which I'd actually gross and I'm going to have to cut because I
was like, like I was. Like, Oh yeah, in this show,
there are a few moments. That are actually gross, just
like just dumb shit that I leave in that are like that are not
like I read it like they're not gross, but if you like take a
second to think about the line, it's pretty gross, I feel.
But it's just his weird way of saying shit.
Yeah, like there's one more where he goes like I think the
love interest character goes like, oh, you're a graphic
designer. And he goes.
And then then there's like I feel a smirk coming on my face
and that kind of moves on. And it's like, it's a weird way
of saying it. It's like like you can see how
someone. Might say it.
Like he's someone might say it's not meant to, you know, like it
doesn't it's it's like it's there if you if you hear it,
it's there, but otherwise it's not there.
Like, that's very much my, I love that type of joke.
It's fun. It's fun.
Oh my God. Are you saving the file?
Is it? Is it done?
No. Oh.
I'm digging for my displacement map.
Displacement map mentioned. I only use one and I'm not happy
about it. Displacement.
Because I don't like the people I bought it from.
Displace. I don't think I've ever used a
displacement map in my life. I have some.
There's so many things I've really done.
So many things I haven't done. Yeah, really.
I just, I just. It always overwhelms me.
Absolutely. Overwhelms me.
Oops. The only maps I like are world
maps. Maps by the Yeah, yeah, yes.
Maps by the Yeah, yeah, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So they're the ones who meant Bang Bang bang, the song Bang
Bang bang. I can't say I'm sure off off the
top. Man, no, I never did you.
Ever play Guitar Hero Garage Band?
I play DJ hero, not Guitar Hero. You.
Play DJ Hero. I play DJ hero that's.
Crazy. That game goes the the the DJ.
Boy. With the sliders, there was one
song, Don't Hold Back I think by The Prodigy, which is Don't Hold
Back or The Chemical Brothers Don't Hold Back.
It was fun. It's sick like.
I had the, I had the Jay-Z Eminem special edition one that
came with the big case and you could turn the case into a DJ
table. That was a date.
That was a. That was, that's crazy.
That was the DJ Hero Edition. That's amazing.
And I have the in the in my car right now.
I still have the the CD because they gave you like basically
like a greatest hits of Eminem and.
Jay-Z what an error. Yeah.
So you play DJ hero? You're a DJ hero guy.
I did, yeah. It wasn't my you.
You went like resoundingly, like overjoyed when I was doing the.
You went like this. Yeah, yeah.
It's. I I feel.
Like, I don't know if you played it.
I actually don't know if you played it.
I feel like DJ Hero's the game you played because you really
love like Guitar Hero and like Rock Band.
It's crazy to have not played the.
Processes. And gone and started at DJ.
Hero, I mean I played Guitar Hero like friends places but we
never we for some reason DJ Hero was the one that I think DJ Hero
for the Nintendo Wii. That really stuck with you.
Yeah, I realized the way. So you would put, you put the
remote like in the like weird somewhere in the device.
It's quite weird, quite weird to do.
I remember that there was some dead mouse songs in it that went
crazy. It was kind of awesome.
It was. And I've seen like I look it up
every year or so. I remember that the game exists
and I look up like people playing it really well and
there's like amazing community behind it, amazing modded
community. It was all these custom songs.
It's cool. It's really cool.
It was just fun. The Rep, it was sick, I'm
telling you, I'm telling you. Were you a Rock Band person,
Kel? You liked Rock Band?
And would there be? Did you have The Beatles?
1 wasn't there? Of course I had the.
Beatles rap. I was gonna say I remember that
being a thing. Of course, yes, I had that.
Because that was so there was Rock Band and there was Guitar
Hero. They were made by different
people I think, but it was the same concept in a way that like
there was a NBA2K and then NBA Live.
That's. The news to me?
Yeah, there was a EAEA made an NBA game with less loot boxes.
I think the same was true for hockey for like all the all the
sports games. All the sports games had too.
There was a 2K version and then now it's kind of like there's no
more NBA Live. There's just Madam.
And they all suck. They all suck, but they need to
be released every year. There needs to be a new one
every every single year. Whoever decided that, whoever
decided the, the, the, the, the curse that was placed on the
sports game industry is when they started putting the year in
the name of the game instead of NBA2.
They're like, no, let's call that NBA 2006.
All right, well, what are we going to post next year?
I guess we have to do 2007. There was a period of time where
those games did make really big leaps in the content.
And so it felt you're like, oh, I'm really.
But now like I could not tell you what the difference between
like an NBA2K25 and NBA2K16 is. There's they're just.
There isn't, Yeah, apart from like a minor improvement in
graphics and if anything, the games become slower.
Yeah, because it's. Way harder.
Yeah, they're like, let's make it more realistic so the players
can't run as fast anymore, so it's less fun.
OK, cool, fun. Sweet.
Oh, they're going to be fouled more like what the the fouls are
going to look more realist. Oh cool, more free throws.
Great, awesome game. The the funniest thing I think
they ever did to a sports game is introduce the ability to
challenge a referee's call in the NBA 2K games.
And sometimes it would be successful, which meant that the
calls made in the game by a fucking computer would sometimes
be wrong. And it was like, what is this
game anymore? You'd be like, that ball
obviously did not go out of bounds, so you challenged it.
And they're like, yeah, you're right.
Like you. Why'd you call it then?
It's a video game. There's code.
It's in the code if the ball went out or not.
Immersion, Jared. Immersion.
Do you did they? Is it still in the 2K games for
basketball? I remember when I think it was
2K16 but like the mics in the. Yes, remote you'd get.
You'd get technical for cursing. In your room that was that was
hilarious. Even if you've been chatting
with someone, I, I think it might still be the, I mean, I
know that the game automatically turns the mic on if you, if you
play, there was a mode of three on three mode that you would
play 1V1 against someone else and it would be 3 players.
And I remember back when I used to, I haven't played since like
22 K 22. I think.
I feel it's been a while because it got me too angry because
people are really aggressive in that game.
And people would turn their mics on and you would hear it through
your controller and you could respond to them through your
controller. And you would, it'd be like
silence for for 20 minutes of a game.
And then in the final 2 seconds or something you would hit like
the game when and you just, they just, they would just destroy
you. They'll just say fuck you over
and like just do you. You play like shit.
That's idiot. Nicely, that's pretty.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
You know, it's weird. You know, we don't want to be
monitored. We don't want to lose our
monetization status. But.
And I would just what would I do?
I would blow into the microphone.
I'd just turn on my head. Like a Nintendo DS.
I never said anything back. I was always too nervous when I
would just blow her landlessly into the mic.
That was my way of getting back of them.
Oh, that was fun. And then he was stop, shut up.
So dumb. And the best thing you can do is
I think each player gets 5 minutes worth of pause time.
And you can pause any time that you have the ball.
And the way the NBA2K game works is you shoot and it, it's a
little timed interaction. So if you time the shot
perfectly, if you release the button at the right time, your
player turns green, the green circle goes around you and you
know that it's going in. And as soon the the goal is as
soon as you see the green, you pause the game as quickly as
possible and you wait 2 minutes and you just sit there and then
you just wait until they start talking 'cause it's so it's like
playing with Lewis for so many years.
You really understand how much of a mental game like sports
video games are. If you can get into someone's
head, they make bad decisions, they start like fucking up their
timing. It is the fun, the funniest
thing to watch someone absolutely breakdown over a
sports video game. And you can do it to people
online with little things just like the just the pause, go into
instant replay mode, zoom in on your character hitting the shot
and they just have to watch you. They just have like there's
nothing they can do except swear at you, swear at you, but they
can't. You know, I can't hear them
swear when I'm blowing into the mic.
So I played for a good month of doing that before I was like,
maybe this isn't good for me, maybe there's better ways of
using my time. That's that's one of the more
toxic video game things I've I've heard for sure is just
before you hit a shot, like doing that at the end of the end
of the game too, like you ever hit the game winner and then.
Yeah, Oh yeah, for five. Full minutes.
It's the best at the end. It's the funniest thing at the
end. Yeah, that's that's ideally the
ideal situation. You save it for the very, very
end. And I don't even think they can
quit like they have to turn off the console at that point.
If some if the other person is paused that they've kind of like
it's their turn on the menu is kind of like the way it works.
So they can't actually leave the game.
So they just have to this. Is like brother behaviour.
Yeah. Oh, like.
Truly. Years of years of doing this to
Lewis. You, you start doing it to other
people, right? It's my way of lashing out
against the world. And then VA 2K.
The funniest thing is like I I started playing chess online and
at the lower levels of chess where I started, it was like
that you someone, the. Other story is about this as
well. Yeah, the other person.
The other person. Would play a move and then all
of a sudden they just start spamming chat like sleep, sleep
emoji, sleep emoji like hurry up hurry.
Up what are you? Doing loser loser noob noob.
I'm like or it's it's level, it's 100.
I think you were playing me. I would do like, I would just do
smirks. I would do a move or like if
they would make a move that was bad, I would just do a smirk and
I would hold it until like I had the best move possible.
I would just smirk at the main. Like, really?
You sure you wanted to do that chest?
Yeah. Toxic.
Very toxic. Just those emojis.
No, no words are necessary. Yeah.
I've gone to a place now where like people would be like really
good game. Like it's, I feel like I've
gotten out of hell yeah in the chess games, which has been
nice. It's actually, you're actually
playing chess now. Oh, this is a nice effect.
I like this is like little horseshoes.
Wow, this came together really quick.
Thanks. Guys are.
You having fun making it? Yeah, I am.
I'm enjoying this episode format.
I feel so at ease. The same because I don't have to
talk. And I don't have to design yes?
I hate talking, I hate designing, so we made a pod.
And my name's Jared. And my.
Name's Jared. Well, do you guys have any other
feedback for me? No, I wouldn't want to insult
you like that. I don't want to give any
feedback but unless. I'm open to hearing it doesn't
necessarily. I actually I I think it looks
pretty complete. I would say the top left is.
You said pretty. Complete right is more what I
was like. It does look pretty as well.
Well, no, you said like almost. Oh, pretty complete.
No, no, no. OK, OK.
I was saying the the the at least like in terms of the top
left just feels a bit emptier because the stroke is not as
thick. But I would I think like that
might just be on my end. I just need to come to you this
the, the, the recording, you know, just because there's a lot
of detail on the other ones, you know what I'm saying?
I am recognizing what you are saying.
Like either the the dog would have to be less like detailed or
the the diva more potentially if you wanted to like.
The diva Yeah. Can't decide how I feel about
these stars. I like the stars.
Yeah, I really like them. I feel like they work.
Outline or fill? Yeah, I like them like this.
I think this goes crazy and I love the geek.
Do not talk to me about artificial intelligence or I
will geek out. I'll geek it.
Do I talk to me about artificial intelligence or I will blow into
my microphone? I will blow into my microphone
while I hit a fadeaway 3 with a 91 overall Jordan Pool who was a
broken 3 pointer stat. That's.
True. And pause the game against a
team full of three Victor Wimbon Yamas and you're like, it's like
you spend money on this game and I'm beating you with a 91
overall. Jordan Paul.
How does that feel? That's like that was the that's
why I think it was ethical. I was playing in Wales, you
know, I'm playing ethical hoops. Finally.
Elliot the Ethical. I've always been an ethical
Hooper, always. I love, I love passing, I love
not shooting very bad shooter, always been a bad shooter, but
God, I've got a good eye for the game.
Unfortunately, it does mean if the defence clocks that you're
not a good shooter, then they kind of like the layoff you,
which means it's much harder to pass it, which, you know,
there's there's issues there, but I'm a I'm a I'm a playmate.
Yeah, I like, I like the passing.
I liked it. Defence.
Bruce smashed a hole in the computer and looks unfazed,
absolutely unfazed. I was like, I love the idea that
he's like typing away, bang back to typing just like.
With or without hole, guys. With or without hole.
Without hole, I think with hole as well.
I think it it with hole. I think it works.
I think we've been staring at it
without the hole for too long, but it feels like it doesn't
work. But I think if you saw that for
the first time, it would work. Do you know what I'm saying?
Or if you gave it the same Rizzo effect, Well, it just, you know,
made it like a little bit less because right, It kind of like.
It's like a little like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The stippled part looks more grey than black and then the
hole is like a deep black. OK, OK, also maybe if you can do
that to those punch outs that you did on the freak on the out.
They seem really soft and the words feel slightly.
Oh, yeah, I see what you mean. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How do I want to do this? How do I want to do?
This. I'm really enjoying giving
feedback and not getting yelled at.
That's fine, it's been a while since I've unleashed on a man.
It's building now. I'll choose a victim soon.
And we are. We're both ready.
We'll do it. I would, you know.
Me and Elliot will carry the flame.
Don't make me sing. Don't make me sing now.
God, my computer's so slow, do you see?
There we go. That looks cool.
Reaction time. Yeah, that looks really sick.
Let me just grab one of my other.
I love making brushes, man. I have a rhinestone brush.
Oh. My God.
Whoa. OK.
Whoops, whoops. Rhinestone Cowboy.
Oh fucking hell. Hey there you.
Go huh. So cool.
Wow. That is you made that, is that
just an image that you're putting down or how does that
work? That's.
Yeah, it's super easy. I can make up.
We can do a whole thing on that. But I have like, yeah, my music
note thing. So when I want to do bullshit
music notes. That's very cool.
That is very. Very so this is so.
Kid pics of you? Yes, what I'm saying what?
I'm saying. The nib.
We'll do that in another. Yeah, I love this one.
Aw, what the fuck? Thank you, that was awesome.
It's. Just a line.
That was so. Cool melon over here.
What? The fuck that was like that was
so nice. I go watch 2 hours of that.
I think, yeah, I actually got goosebumps from that.
That kind of rattled me. I love this one.
This is a. Nib.
OK, come on, we. Ah, random stars.
That's very kid pigs. This is all.
Very tux paint, I would say as well.
Keep looking for the camera that isn't there.
Oops. Oh, there we go.
That looks good. That looks good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Barely. Touch it.
That's it. That's it.
That fixes it and. Then let's take this to the
penthouse and freak it. There we go.
What if I I got to stop? Oh, wait.
Oh, too much of the dog is gone. Try to add some of it back.
OK, that was too much. Tried to take it away again.
OK, that was too much. Freaked it.
That kind of looks gone. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah. Great brushes.
I should utilize brushes more. I love these.
I love watching Cal design. It always makes me go I should
do this much this more than I never do it, never do it, but I
have here. You are in your one format where
you could be doing it more I. Know it's always the I still, I
still go back to the master class.
There's all the stuff in the master class stuff I've taken on
wholeheartedly. I love the color range tool so
much. I use the color range tool
disguised every day. It's.
Like. My week I'm really starting to
go and it's like sometimes it's like the the lightest touch and
it's like. Do you have A and then other?
Times. It's like, by the way, yeah.
Do you have a mini? One, it's the it's a medium.
Because they had them on sale the other day and I was like I
think I had the mini one or like a small looking. 10 mini one
shit don't get the small ones. That's like a message to anyone.
Do not get the small wacoms they're a waste of your time.
Good to know just because it's too it's too small for fine
movements like because it has to be you portion your screen to
the size of your Wacom. So I don't even have my full
Wacom tablet being utilized. I have like maybe 80% of it
being utilized for my screen size because otherwise like you
just you're also getting like a better quality sensor between
the tip of your pen and the actual pad.
And if that sensor is not a higher quality, you just can't
get those super fine movements. I'm speaking from experience.
I had a small 1 and I hated it and I think that's why a lot of
people don't end up using them long term.
Either they just can't get the hand eye coordination down or
they go too small with their Wacom and it is very frustrating
to work with. But I love my Wacom.
Like truly like my my lifeline. I love it so much.
OK, good. To know.
It's unfortunate that they started peddling some AI
bullshit. Piss me off.
That added strike I think just completed.
I feel like that aligns the dots are fun.
I want to add one thing. Exclamation .0.
Great. Love that.
Great. She looked.
She looked shocked. That's me.
Like, OK, I think I'm done. That's great.
Fantastic. What a brilliant poster.
What a joy this was to watch. Thanks for watching guys you.
Are now watching a master at work cringe.
Yeah, that was amazing. That was well, well done.
Well done. Thank you.
I'll go ahead and stop sharing
my screen so my computer can cool down.
Absolutely brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
Now everyone who's watching can when you when you inevitably
post that, you now get to see how the sausage gets made.
Everyone isn't that exciting? That's.
Maybe I'll make it into a print if you guys like it, I'll make
it into a print because I'm trying to get my print shop up
and running. Trying, keyword trying.
When you have ethics, it's really hard to do stuff.
It's really hard. They don't make it easy for you,
but you know it's fine. I hope you guys enjoyed that.
I was going to do stuff where I draw on my favorite thing to
draw on and scan, which is mail that I need to open but I don't
want to so I just draw on them instead.
That's really. And that makes it go away.
There's context there. There's like story to it.
When you do that, there's layers.
Oh yeah, I do it on like my tax documents too.
Yeah, but some of my favorite things to draw with and then
scan because people will try to sell you really expensive pens.
Do not buy expensive pens. You do not need expensive stuff.
One of my favorite tools to draw with is just this type of
ballpoint pen, just like the dinkiest, like it's not like the
loose ink one. The ones that are like
liquidier. It's like this is like one of
the dry ballpoint pens. Love those and then I like
drawing on envelopes because they tend to have like this is a
city of Portland tax division letter that I don't want to
open, but because they're like privacy envelopes.
So they have like a bit of a, they have a texture to them
because they have like AI don't know some bullshit.
I. Know what you mean?
I can feel it in my mind right now.
Yeah. So they're fun to draw and
because you get kind of like the resistance when you're drawing.
And then I have one pen that's like a liquidier pen.
I think I got this from It's not Daiso Mooji.
Mooji bread pens. And then I oh, this is a Jelly
roll. Not Jelly.
Something's got original meat. That's Teddy Swims.
The original Jelly Roll. It's a gel pen.
It's a silver gel pen. I love drawing stuff with these
because scanners are like when they scan the ink, they don't
really know what to do. So you can kind of get like a
varied effect every time. So that's really fun.
And then my other favorite thing to draw with is a Prismacolor.
This is like my most expensive pen.
It's a marker. So this is probably, what, a
$2.00 marker in the grand scheme of things.
I don't know how old these are, I've had them since I was in
college so these are like 10 years old and they still work.
Is that a dual end rendering marker?
Yeah, nice. It's got the chisel tip and then
a a fine point tip. But yeah, I got these in school
and then a Sharpie. I like working with Sharpies,
but when I'm drawing for a while the fumes.
Yeah, it's intense. Sharpies are intense.
It's intense. Quite intense.
Yeah, but I kind of like the smell of the Prismacol.
Don't don't mind it. Don't mind it at.
All it's like, no, it smells like kind of like fruity versus
this smells like brain damage. This is kind of sweet, but this
bleeds a lot. So that's kind of like sometimes
desirable. I like drawing on napkins.
I like drawing on paper towels, Manila folders, junk mail.
I hate drawing on notebooks. Any nice paper I get pissed off.
So yeah, the shittier the paper the better it is to draw on.
I hate drawing in sketchbooks. I will never scan like anything
I've ever drawn in a sketchbook I've like.
Never ended up using in a design.
Things I draw on junk mail. Triple platinum.
So don't overthink it, guys. Keep it simple, stupid.
Evergreen, Evergreen or regular pencil?
The old pencil. The old pencil.
Also great. A nice shopping pencil.
Good stuff, good stuff. Shall we move into our outro
sequence where we remember all of the things that we have to
do? Yes, yes, yes.
Let's start with the song of the wake.
Oh, I don't know mine. Let me think about this.
I think I have many options today.
Oh. OK, I don't mind.
Go for it please. Jeez, I didn't know I was.
Going to that was. Going to be first.
My song of the week is Goodbye to You by Michelle Branch.
Nice. Do you know who Michelle Branch
is? Please say yes.
I'm going to. I'm going to freak out.
I'm going. To freak it, Michelle Branch.
Jared, do you know who Michelle Branch?
Is that name sounds incredibly familiar.
It's not something on the top of my mind, but.
There's a whole other world out there.
Oh. Michelle Branch is like the
blueprint for like the modern singer-songwriter pop girl.
Oh. Yeah, this is awesome.
You've heard Michelle Branch. Sure You've you've heard?
Yeah, everywhere. You've heard everywhere.
I must have heard everywhere to. There's too many plays for me
not to have heard it. Play it a second into your into
your Airpod. I need to, I need to know that
you've heard this song. She sounds, she sounds, she
basically I like is the creator of the sound of like Hannah
Montana and that sort of like early Disney eras.
She spawned like like all, all of like the pop girls now, like
Taylor Swift, like even like Avril Lavigne, like it's every,
every singer-songwriter, like pop singer-songwriter now.
Like came from Michelle Branch, very late 90s, early 2000s like
ROM com. Like she's like prodigy to me.
Like I had her CD when I was a kid.
She is that girl. So that's my song of the week.
Goodbye to you. My song of the week is going to
be I'll go with Beat Back by fuckers.
I just secondly, you know, I love fuckers, fuckers and they
just released I think today they released their first album and
it is cool. They're finally getting their
they got they died. I was on them early guys.
Now that you know, they're they're getting around.
People love them now are. They related to star fuckers?
No, I don't think so. I don't think so.
I'll never forget when I had a Charlie XCX brat themed party.
I said look here's a song. I cued Bonbon by fuckers and
everyone left the dance floor. It was the one of the worst
moments of my life. And you know what?
If I did it again, everyone would go.
I know this song because now everyone knows them.
But there was a time when no one.
Did Fairweather fans. Fairweather fans.
Yeah, two years too late, you know.
Having me with Chapel Roan having me, I would, I would play
Chapel Roan and everybody's like, I'm not really into this.
Oh yeah, then. Oh, here we go.
Oh, they're just rolling back. Interesting.
Oh, to have taste like ours. We're just always ahead of the
curve, you know? It's exhausting during
everything. It's really tiring.
Yeah, my back hurts you.
Know this is how my audiences feel when they see my shirts.
You know, years from now, they'll get it.
Years from now, everyone else is going to get it.
They'll they'll pick. Up I was there.
I was there when he first did the Yeah, they'll get it next
time. Meow today for a laugh.
Tomorrow Bovine. Bovine He.
Didn't make it. He didn't make it.
He didn't make it full gap.
My gate is so unkept. That can't be kept in a Cape.
All right. Do we have a font of the?
Oh, that was. OK.
Oh yeah, one of the one of the fonts that I used.
Who is she? Who is she?
Gothic round plane.
There's only a bunch of owls. Hold on.
Let me. Sorry.
Let me. Not me cooing.
Not me cooing on Kelliot. Why does that sound awful?
Yeah, it sounds. Really, it sounds.
You're on a roll today. I know I'm I'm in comedy comedy
mode. This is unmedicated Elliot.
Bingo. Bingo.
So much medication mentioned. The bingo references will make
sense when we show the song of the week.
Fucking hell, I'm sorry, the Kelliot said.
Sir, wrap it up, wrap it up. That's a great font.
Great font. Great.
Font. Here's my font of the week guys.
It's HWT Gothic Round. Incredible.
I like that it has like a little bite dinking out right here.
It's weird. It's weird.
Like I love pairing her with Ariel.
Round, aerial, rounded, and then you turn the fuck out of both of
them. Oh oh.
That's lovely. That's gorgeous.
Love that anyway. Should I share the song?
The code said so I've got it up here.
Please. OK, this is Kelliot.
This is the Kelliot said so it's from Paul is artistic says
introducing Kelliot pod bingo. It's my first card that says
submission. And it was so much fun not only
to make this but to also play along during the latest episode.
We have an official bingo card from Paul and Paul did hit
bingo. That's true.
And I feel like you know this. You're going to, you're going to
hit bingo. You're going to hit bingo with
us. Paul, I just feel like you
should know behind the scenes. We talked about doing this very
recently and you beat us to making it public.
Yeah, this is incredible. Incredible.
What's your favorite read here? I think.
Elliott's gambling is crazy that that's in there and then I did
it today and the whole you know, you've got Elliot's gambling
anti AI chat. Jared face Cam appearance is
probably I imagine he's I imagine Jared's spoken up to to
warrants a face Cam appearance and Adobe slander.
I think we I actually didn't. I don't think we did talk so
much, I don't think. I said anything.
Fuck Adobe. There we go.
Good. There.
There you go. Bingo.
Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding. We did mention Fish Chair at the
beginning. Yes, Elliot, you did sing.
I did Google side quests on on the on the what what was the the
the the the the the the Rizzo guy in the background I was
doing. That also side quest Michelle
Branch. Yes, Kel's two finger clamp of
approval, I don't think we saw that there.
I didn't do that today. Oh, I do like messing up the
intro intentionally. Question mark.
Yes, yes, this one was on it.
We didn't do the intro today, so there's something.
That we have did it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You did share some harrowing information, but that was before
we started recording a harrowing personal story.
I don't remember but I remember thinking this is like on the
bingo card. This is the thing because it's
not hiring to me anymore, which is what's concerning about all
of it. I'm just like, this is a normal
story I think. It was Elliot talking about his
process in building a comedy show and showing up and being
like, we're going to figure this baby out today.
Yeah, that is pretty. It was pretty full on.
People seem shocked when I tell them that after the show.
I'm like, that was a lot of that was made-up.
They're like, oh, I'm like. Yeah, I just decided to do it
just now. Elliot, you did anything but
design today, so that's funny. Anything and everything.
George did come in. Yeah, he's asleep.
I think we spoke to the viewers in a loving way.
That's general. That's a general time.
Sam and Elliot Colbeck was not not.
That was not in there. That was not in there.
Wait, what was their bingo? Can you go to the next?
Slide This was episode 19. Damn, they did get bingo.
Where's the bingo? Down the middle.
Oh yes. Kelly calls Elliot, Andrew,
Jared Queen. Love that.
I definitely did call multiple things, her and diva.
I said this diva to my clipart lady.
Yeah, yeah. We did talk about being
medicated. Yeah.
Yeah, sounds pretty good. That's pretty good.
I reckon play along everyone. I mean, you've watched the.
Episode this is really good. Unfortunately, you now you know
this exists as a viewer after the episode has been done, but
next. Time for the future.
You can play along that'd. Be fun.
This is really fun, that stuff. I feel like it would be fun if
we did like personal bingos for the other person.
Yeah, like that one drop out episode of Where We Do It.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's fun.
I think that. Could be fun.
This time would be good. It's just happening in the
background and we just keep going until someone hits it.
Bingo. That'd be fun.
That sounds like a good lock it in, put that in the notes.
All right. Josh, write it down.
Write it down, Josh. Hey guys, Elliott needs to go be
quiet for the next 6 hours I guess.
That's fun. Have some honey.
I'm going to go work. Great episode, as I do.
Thanks for. Thanks for.
Yeah. That was a lot of fun.
Yeah. Happy to carry the flame, I
fight for the gospel. You know it's always worth.
It anyway guys, we'll see you next week.
Have a good one take. Care of each other and thanks to
