00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,400
Ten days from Play Welcome to 
have a nicer play your Weekly 

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,000
mobile game review program. 
I'm Edwin and I'm Sam and in 

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,300
this podcast we review a game 
for seven days see how long it 

4
00:00:09,300 --> 00:00:11,900
takes us to play it this past 
week. 

5
00:00:11,900 --> 00:00:16,000
I recommended Mario Kart World 
Tour by Nintendo. 

6
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,800
I'm gonna come on set right off 
the bat. 

7
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,200
Maybe the best game Nintendo was
made for iOS, huh out of all the

8
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,700
three they've done so far. 
I know I'm not perfect by any 

9
00:00:28,700 --> 00:00:31,200
stretch, right Maya. 
Initial reaction is it's 

10
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,100
probably was like the weakest 
for me. 

11
00:00:33,100 --> 00:00:35,700
Oh, okay. 
Let's get right clicks. 

12
00:00:35,700 --> 00:00:37,700
I like it. 
This makes for great 

13
00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:39,300
conversation. 
Tell me about your impressions 

14
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:42,500
of this game like all around. 
I mean first off. 

15
00:00:42,500 --> 00:00:45,700
I hate the Nintendo account 
login to begin with as just 

16
00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:47,400
awful. 
I feel like they've kind of done

17
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,800
through with it. 
Like all I had to do was accept 

18
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,900
the terms and agreements. 
Yeah, maybe I wouldn't have to 

19
00:00:53,900 --> 00:00:57,100
like login or anything 
interesting because I mean you 

20
00:00:57,100 --> 00:00:59,300
have a switch your a Nintendo 
boy right? 

21
00:00:59,300 --> 00:01:02,100
You only have me Already, I for 
some reason didn't have any 

22
00:01:02,100 --> 00:01:03,700
count. 
I think this was the first time 

23
00:01:03,700 --> 00:01:06,700
you needed one to play. 
I don't think Mario capsule 

24
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:10,700
World required this. 
Anyway, this is the first time I

25
00:01:10,700 --> 00:01:13,600
had to go through the steps of 
finding a username and your 

26
00:01:13,607 --> 00:01:16,900
blood bubble asked clicking. 
Yes, okay on the email then 

27
00:01:16,900 --> 00:01:19,900
going back to logging in and 
then I'll finally oh, you know 

28
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:21,100
what I did. 
Yeah, you're right. 

29
00:01:21,100 --> 00:01:23,700
There is like a login screen, 
but I think I just accepted as 

30
00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:27,100
guests just to proceed on with 
the game always look for that 

31
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:28,900
sneaky. 
Yeah, he was guest which is on 

32
00:01:28,908 --> 00:01:32,200
the smallest. 
First smallest font possible, 

33
00:01:32,300 --> 00:01:33,700
right? 
Oh rats. 

34
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:38,500
Normally I quite pride myself on
my ability to where's Waldo? 

35
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:40,200
Where's the continuous guest 
button? 

36
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,800
But damn they got me this time 
you like then sucker. 

37
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:48,200
Yep, I did for those that might 
have not seen or heard of Mario 

38
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,400
Kart ever before doesn't the 
symptoms. 

39
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,100
I thought we were here. 
Yeah. 

40
00:01:52,700 --> 00:01:55,600
Sure. 
The Mario Kart is a racing game 

41
00:01:55,700 --> 00:01:59,100
where you are one of the 
characters from the Mario World 

42
00:01:59,300 --> 00:02:04,300
driving. go-kart And in this 
particular iteration of Mario 

43
00:02:04,300 --> 00:02:07,400
Kart, it is called World Tour 
because you have different 

44
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:12,100
venues of I guess countries and 
maps and nobody's around the 

45
00:02:12,100 --> 00:02:13,300
world. 
Right? 

46
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:17,200
And you all you have to do it's 
very much like a normal Mario 

47
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,500
Kart game where you're going 
around a track, but the the 

48
00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:23,000
special thing about Mario Kart 
is that you have weapons and 

49
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,100
power-ups that you can use along
the way the race is consisted 

50
00:02:27,100 --> 00:02:29,800
usually of three laps and you 
just have to make sure that you 

51
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,800
place either one, too. 
Three in order for you to get 

52
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,900
some points and yeah, it's 
geared towards more of a family 

53
00:02:36,900 --> 00:02:39,200
friendly game. 
But some of the races can get 

54
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,500
very heated and exciting 
especially when you level up. 

55
00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:44,900
Yeah, do not play Mario Kart 
with my boyfriend's sister. 

56
00:02:44,908 --> 00:02:50,000
She gets very, um, enthusiastic 
shall we say, it's it's I think 

57
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,000
she'd been banned from playing 
in the office because of the 

58
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,900
string of expletives that's come
out of my mouth while playing 

59
00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:59,700
it's a game where you can 
actually break friendships like 

60
00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:02,400
if you really pick on someone 
And you can really give them a 

61
00:03:02,408 --> 00:03:06,300
bad day. 
Yeah, but this game is obviously

62
00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:08,200
the handheld version. 
So the controls have been 

63
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,600
modified a little bit which I 
think own work. 

64
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,100
Well, there's no accelerate or 
brake. 

65
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:18,100
You merely go you nearly go and 
you turn and from off the bat. 

66
00:03:18,100 --> 00:03:19,900
There are two modes to play 
this. 

67
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,000
Yeah. 
I didn't like the way you what 

68
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,700
kind of present it to you 
without any kind of context 

69
00:03:24,700 --> 00:03:28,000
right one is normal mode. 
And I think the other one is 

70
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,600
called like something like 
manual mode or something like 

71
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,200
that where You can control your 
drifts a little easier and stuff

72
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,400
like that. 
Yeah, I didn't I never liked how

73
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,900
they present choices like this 
is like, what's normal? 

74
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,300
What's Advanced? 
Where am I? 

75
00:03:42,300 --> 00:03:44,100
How do I know? 
Which one to choose right? 

76
00:03:44,100 --> 00:03:47,100
It's almost don't give me that 
option up front. 

77
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,600
Maybe you just make everyone 
quote unquote normal and then 

78
00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:54,700
there's like some settings 
somewhere because me being me 

79
00:03:54,700 --> 00:03:57,100
I'm like, oh, I think I'm a 
master. 

80
00:03:57,100 --> 00:04:01,300
Yeah, I can drive stick because 
I Learned to Drive in the UK, so

81
00:04:01,500 --> 00:04:04,700
I think I've got this Advanced 
drift control down. 

82
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,400
So that's why I chose obviously 
you regret it, or did you have a

83
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,500
good time with it? 
Well, the thing is, there's no 

84
00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:12,700
way to know what normal is like 
right or at least without going 

85
00:04:12,700 --> 00:04:15,500
back to England setting playing 
again, so I can't deal with it. 

86
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:18,200
I thought it was pretty good. 
I wasn't mad at it. 

87
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:19,600
I had an opposite reaction to 
it. 

88
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,000
I had no idea what was going on 
in terms of the controls. 

89
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,900
It just felt all over the place.
I couldn't get a grasp for it. 

90
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:29,000
And normally I get a grasper 
things pretty quickly in terms 

91
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,300
of games. 
But yeah, I don't know. 

92
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:34,000
Think about this maybe even 
playing because I'm used to 

93
00:04:34,008 --> 00:04:38,200
playing other Mario Karts. 
Like it just didn't feel like 

94
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:42,100
Mario Kart driving for me, right
that's interesting point because

95
00:04:42,100 --> 00:04:44,700
the context I've not really 
played Mario Cart since those 

96
00:04:44,700 --> 00:04:48,300
Super Nintendo Entertainment 
System and even then I wasn't 

97
00:04:48,300 --> 00:04:52,000
super into Mario Kart. 
I was a supermario boing myself.

98
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,300
So I don't really have a much 
haven't played a whole bunch of 

99
00:04:55,308 --> 00:04:58,800
Mario Kart, especially the newer
iterations on switch or your 

100
00:04:59,100 --> 00:05:04,000
GameCube the king. 
Cube so I was coming at it 

101
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,800
reasonably fresh in terms of 
like how it should feel and I 

102
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,000
quite enjoyed it. 
I think it certainly took me a 

103
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,200
couple of games to understand at
least in the steering mode that 

104
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,800
I chose, you know, the further 
to the edge of the screen the 

105
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,400
more you turned which sounds 
stupid now, I say it out loud, 

106
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,500
but it did take me a while to 
actually realize that the amount

107
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:27,200
you move your thumb does 
actually change the amount you 

108
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:28,600
steer. 
Yeah rather than just being a 

109
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,900
kind of a linear left, right? 
So yeah if you put Um, and the 

110
00:05:31,907 --> 00:05:34,500
center of the screen is sort of 
like evens UI as normal you're 

111
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:37,100
driving straight. 
If you move your finger to the 

112
00:05:37,100 --> 00:05:43,200
right it turns you to the right.
Yeah, but also if you're in like

113
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,200
this drift mode will also start 
you to drift and then like if 

114
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,100
you put it in opposite direction
and allow you to drift the 

115
00:05:49,100 --> 00:05:52,400
opposite way to counter steer 
and vice versa on the other 

116
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,800
side, so it's kind of intuitive 
but I think if you start off and

117
00:05:56,900 --> 00:05:59,500
the manual mode where you have 
the control of drift, it could 

118
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:02,600
be a little confusing for me. 
Me, I don't think it was a 

119
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,700
confusing. 
It was just like I didn't feel 

120
00:06:04,700 --> 00:06:09,200
like it was accurately 
representing my intent of moving

121
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,400
around the screen if that makes 
any sense like yeah. 

122
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,200
Yeah, it was it seemed a little 
bit counterintuitive in terms of

123
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,800
the movement for me, right 
because you always drift in this

124
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:23,000
mode which I think if memory 
serves with my Super Nintendo 

125
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,800
Entertainment System Controller 
drift was the top buttons left 

126
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,600
and right as you hop a little 
bit Yeah, whereas just left and 

127
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,200
right would do a normal. 
Stay out here. 

128
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,900
In this case. 
You can only drift which is a 

129
00:06:34,907 --> 00:06:38,000
different way of steering 
because now you're sliding 

130
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,400
around a corner rather than just
moving left as it were like you 

131
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:47,100
doing Jersey only turnpike's all
those, you know, night Fast and 

132
00:06:47,100 --> 00:06:50,800
Furious boys over there with 
their with their cars and 

133
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,000
upgrades. 
I don't know what I'm talking 

134
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:58,100
about. 
We talked about the metagame the

135
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:01,000
Collectibles and the 
everything's around it right 

136
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,200
elements. 
Of this because there's a whole 

137
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,800
bunch of character collecting 
items as we discussed in the 

138
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,100
last episode. 
I always like to play as Yoshi, 

139
00:07:09,700 --> 00:07:13,600
but I'm sad I have not yet got 
to play as Yoshi because he I've

140
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,100
not unlocked him yet through a 
series of confusing Jim's pipes 

141
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,700
cars yields some something or 
other. 

142
00:07:20,900 --> 00:07:22,300
Yeah. 
In fact, I don't think I could 

143
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:25,600
actually tell you how this whole
system works because I think 

144
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,800
it's kind of deliberately 
confusing it is when you start a

145
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,300
game you're presented with spot 
see me. 

146
00:07:31,500 --> 00:07:36,300
Feels like 12 screens where you 
need to select a card from each 

147
00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:39,400
one and then your viewer 
illuminated because those ones 

148
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,000
have you collected so you can't 
we just tap and play you have to

149
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,800
tap only you're choosing 
something and then you're 

150
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,500
choosing your hang-gliding 
option. 

151
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:48,200
Then you're choosing your car. 
Then you're choosing your 

152
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,700
character, which I know you did 
in the in the in the older 

153
00:07:51,700 --> 00:07:54,900
version but somehow. 
It is presenting the very 

154
00:07:54,900 --> 00:07:58,100
confusing way and there's some 
objectives to use certain 

155
00:07:58,100 --> 00:08:00,500
character combinations or 
certain combinations of things 

156
00:08:00,500 --> 00:08:03,800
to get more points and sure I 
was confused. 

157
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,100
But yeah, it was confusing. 
I think yeah, it starts you off 

158
00:08:07,100 --> 00:08:12,000
with I think the towed off the 
bat that's the first character 

159
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,900
that sort of unlocks for you and
then shortly after that I think 

160
00:08:14,900 --> 00:08:16,800
something like Bowser is 
unlocked for you. 

161
00:08:16,900 --> 00:08:17,700
Oh, yeah. 
Okay. 

162
00:08:17,700 --> 00:08:19,500
So there's a Linea that's it was
the same thing. 

163
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,700
Yeah, that does seem like you 
need to play more in order to 

164
00:08:22,707 --> 00:08:26,500
unlock and I can see That really
ties into the monetization in 

165
00:08:26,500 --> 00:08:29,000
order for you to unlock stuff. 
You can just pay your way to 

166
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,000
have them. 
But well you can pay your way to

167
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:37,400
buy rubies and then rubies allow
you to shoot things out of a 

168
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,900
pipe. 
Hmm, which is the unlock which 

169
00:08:39,900 --> 00:08:44,600
is the unlock their eyes. 
They catch up on got your pipe 

170
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,800
indeed. 
There was some of the copy was 

171
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,100
interesting. 
I should take a screen grab of 

172
00:08:50,100 --> 00:08:55,200
this because the middle little 
Papa who waves the flag. 

173
00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:58,700
He's kind of your buddy guiding 
you through this largely 

174
00:08:58,700 --> 00:09:01,700
confusing menu system. 
So he pops up now and then one 

175
00:09:01,700 --> 00:09:06,100
of the things he said way to go 
this calls for a celebration and

176
00:09:06,100 --> 00:09:08,600
what better way to celebrate 
than firing something out of a 

177
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:13,200
pipe. 
I remember noting that it's all 

178
00:09:13,900 --> 00:09:16,600
it's just confusing and it seems
out of place right with the rest

179
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,700
of the copywriting which is 
pretty standard, right? 

180
00:09:18,700 --> 00:09:20,900
Yeah. 
I mean they making a losing the 

181
00:09:20,900 --> 00:09:22,600
fireworks. 
I don't know. 

182
00:09:23,700 --> 00:09:26,400
They're just saying like hey, 
this is a celebratory moment 

183
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:34,100
where she was like, yeah. 
Yeah, that was awkward but funny

184
00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:37,300
but strange Sam. 
Do you think you were playing 

185
00:09:37,300 --> 00:09:42,600
against other real players? 
Or other real races so the world

186
00:09:42,700 --> 00:09:46,000
that's the illusion that It Go 
view right? 

187
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,100
But there is no way that was 
actually the case. 

188
00:09:50,300 --> 00:09:54,500
I feel like because no matter 
like every time that I played 

189
00:09:54,500 --> 00:09:57,300
against quote-unquote real 
people around the world with 

190
00:09:57,300 --> 00:09:59,600
their user names because you can
see their usernames. 

191
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,100
Yeah. 
I always came in first and I 

192
00:10:02,108 --> 00:10:06,200
drove horribly for like the 
first two times y because of 

193
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,900
your thumb drift problems realm 
worse than them drift. 

194
00:10:10,300 --> 00:10:11,300
Drift drift. 
Yeah. 

195
00:10:13,300 --> 00:10:15,200
I don't know. 
It's like an illusion that makes

196
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,200
you feel like oh, yeah, this is 
all connected. 

197
00:10:17,300 --> 00:10:19,900
Yeah, but I don't think it was 
real. 

198
00:10:20,700 --> 00:10:23,600
Yeah, I think I was the same. 
I was the same as well to begin 

199
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,000
with I thought oh, wow. 
I'm racing into other people 

200
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,400
maybe later on. 
Once you get past the guards of 

201
00:10:29,700 --> 00:10:32,100
handhold novelty learning 
levels. 

202
00:10:32,100 --> 00:10:33,400
You actually weighs against 
other people. 

203
00:10:33,500 --> 00:10:34,500
Hmm. 
I don't know. 

204
00:10:34,500 --> 00:10:37,800
I don't think there just wasn't 
enough of a waiting time for it 

205
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,900
to really match up that quickly.
That's also true. 

206
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Yeah, it might have been like 
pre-recorded. 

207
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,400
I don't know that doesn't make 
sense because you interact with 

208
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,200
them on the other thing is you 
need to be online to start a 

209
00:10:48,208 --> 00:10:51,100
game. 
Yeah, but if you go offline 

210
00:10:51,100 --> 00:10:53,600
while playing a game you still 
carry on playing and everyone's 

211
00:10:53,900 --> 00:10:56,100
racing against you. 
Yeah, I don't happen to me on 

212
00:10:56,100 --> 00:10:58,000
the subway because I could oh, 
I'm in the station. 

213
00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:01,200
I can start a game go go go and 
then I can play it right do do 

214
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,600
do do do. 
Then I go into the tunnel again,

215
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,000
and obviously no cell network 
connection. 

216
00:11:07,100 --> 00:11:08,500
Yeah, but that's all works like 
still race. 

217
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,300
Then I think my results was not 
recorded. 

218
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,600
So yeah, I mean back and I'd 
have to play the game again, 

219
00:11:13,700 --> 00:11:16,600
right and that was probably one 
of my biggest issues which we'll

220
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,600
get to very soon on the three by
threes may be next. 

221
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,500
Yes, three by threes three 
things good and three things 

222
00:11:23,500 --> 00:11:25,300
bad. 
My first point. 

223
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,500
I thought it was a faithful 
Recreation of Mario Kart. 

224
00:11:29,500 --> 00:11:32,400
I know you disagree so that 
should be a good point to 

225
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,500
discuss further. 
But as someone who admittedly 

226
00:11:35,500 --> 00:11:38,100
has not played much Mario Kart, 
especially since the Super 

227
00:11:38,100 --> 00:11:42,700
Nintendo, I was there feels like
Mario Kart right now. 

228
00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:47,800
My feeling is I quite like the 
good the touch controls after a 

229
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,700
few races. 
Oh, I got the I got the gist of 

230
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:53,400
it three or four races in. 
Yeah. 

231
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,200
They're looking Fields. 
Definitely Mario Kart. 

232
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,800
I mean they've gotten a lot of 
stuff right in terms of making 

233
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,600
this feel like a polished Mario 
game. 

234
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,000
Yeah, actually tell you what can
I just clarify my position? 

235
00:12:03,100 --> 00:12:05,300
On that. 
Yep, the racing natural game 

236
00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:09,600
itself feels like Mario Kart. 
They are no good job of that so 

237
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,900
I can see the point for the bad.
So the actual racing part, I 

238
00:12:12,900 --> 00:12:15,600
think they made really good 
concessions as a mobile 

239
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,000
experience. 
Like I think if I actually got 

240
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,400
used to it and I actually 
started to enjoy it which I'll 

241
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,400
get to later. 
I think it's something that that

242
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,800
that totally makes sense from a 
mobile racing perspective 

243
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,200
because it allows you to drive 
it with one hand, which is great

244
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,300
as a mobile gaming experience. 
Like this is almost a perfect 

245
00:12:32,300 --> 00:12:34,800
format. 
It's a Portrait you can control 

246
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,700
that with one hand everything 
all the menus and buttons are 

247
00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:40,100
sort of laid out and towards the
bottom of the screen which is 

248
00:12:40,100 --> 00:12:42,600
like super convenient. 
So they thought a lot about this

249
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,700
stuff and it shows and the 
Polish nice. 

250
00:12:45,700 --> 00:12:48,800
Good point. 
I think the monetization was 

251
00:12:49,100 --> 00:12:52,200
reasonably well done. 
I mean, there's nothing 

252
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:53,800
spectacularly new or different 
about it. 

253
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,700
But you know, you can play for a
bunch of times without having to

254
00:12:57,700 --> 00:13:01,400
pay and if you want to shoot 
more stuff out of your pipe, you

255
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,000
can pay the piper great. 
Yes to celebrate. 

256
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,200
Yes the celebratory moment only.
Of course, you can pay to buy 

257
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,900
more Rupees to do that. 
I thought was fairly uh, none 

258
00:13:11,900 --> 00:13:14,100
obnoxious, right? 
I mean, there aren't really any 

259
00:13:14,100 --> 00:13:16,000
ads or anything like that that 
gets in your way. 

260
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,400
Really the only way that they 
monetize is to buy these gems to

261
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,800
upgrade your stuff. 
If possible, yeah, and also 

262
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,500
follows like a nice progression,
right? 

263
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:28,200
Like it gives you stars in gems 
appropriately like throughout 

264
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,500
your experience. 
If you're a Casual Gamer, like 

265
00:13:31,500 --> 00:13:35,200
you're not really gonna want to 
create other characters or like 

266
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,100
get other characters off the 
back because the the characters 

267
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:40,400
that you start off with are 
pretty charming and fun to play 

268
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,900
with so I thought that 
progression is really nice and 

269
00:13:44,100 --> 00:13:45,900
you know, they've got to make 
money somehow. 

270
00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:48,500
So I appreciate that. 
They've thought of these things.

271
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,200
Well, yeah, I'd also like to 
give you You a bunch of 

272
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,400
customization options. 
You can choose to race if you 

273
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,400
played Mario Cart before you are
very familiar with this. 

274
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,900
You can play the 10cc casual the
hundred cc experience. 

275
00:14:01,900 --> 00:14:04,800
I think there's few more ones to
become unlocked later on and 

276
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:10,900
although the options of how to 
steer seems confusing to present

277
00:14:10,900 --> 00:14:12,900
to user before they've even 
played the game. 

278
00:14:13,900 --> 00:14:17,100
I still like that those options 
are there and if I wanted to 

279
00:14:17,100 --> 00:14:20,400
fine-tune my controls, I guess I
can yeah as if you do open up 

280
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,700
the In you you there are bunch 
of different control methods so 

281
00:14:23,700 --> 00:14:27,500
you can do manual drift smart 
steering Auto item. 

282
00:14:27,900 --> 00:14:31,600
And so in fact, you can also do 
the gyro the driver scope 

283
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,700
handling so you could steer with
tilting or phone if that is the 

284
00:14:34,708 --> 00:14:37,400
kind of thing you enjoy doing. 
Yeah, the the settings are very 

285
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:41,600
clear and pretty well done in 
terms of like the different 

286
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,000
toggles that you have. 
I appreciate that. 

287
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,300
They have like a power saving 
mode in case you know, your 

288
00:14:46,300 --> 00:14:49,300
phone gets too warm, but just 
want to play as Yoshi. 

289
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,200
Would you have paid to just play
as Yoshi, like if you can just 

290
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:55,700
like by the characters off the 
bat? 

291
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:00,100
Yeah, you can pay 20 bucks to 
get what is called. 

292
00:15:00,100 --> 00:15:04,800
The jeez what this is called is 
called like the New York pack or

293
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:09,800
something as the New York set 
which gives you Mario star 

294
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:14,400
ticket and 45 rupees for the 
princely sum of 1999. 

295
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,600
Oh boy, which is quite a lot. 
Yeah, that isn't gonna like 

296
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,800
well, I mean, how much value do 
you place in fun? 

297
00:15:21,300 --> 00:15:24,000
Haha question to ask yourself 
every day. 

298
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:29,700
Yeah, if I could pay 20 bucks to
play as Yoshi mean I might do it

299
00:15:30,700 --> 00:15:32,600
but it I wouldn't feel good 
about it. 

300
00:15:32,700 --> 00:15:34,600
Hmm. 
I feel a little bit icky. 

301
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,500
I mean this is kind of same 
problems. 

302
00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:38,500
I like Star Wars ran into with 
yo. 

303
00:15:38,500 --> 00:15:40,500
Hey play for free. 
But oh you want to play as your 

304
00:15:40,500 --> 00:15:44,500
favorite character, then we got 
to cough up those there's 

305
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:48,600
Benjamin's extra digital 
dollars, which I can understand 

306
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,900
the strategy. 
Yeah, but if you're on the end 

307
00:15:50,900 --> 00:15:54,500
of it It doesn't feel great. 
And also like I don't think it's

308
00:15:54,500 --> 00:15:56,700
really hard for you to just 
spend a little time with the 

309
00:15:56,700 --> 00:15:58,900
game and earn your way through 
it, which I think is totally 

310
00:15:58,900 --> 00:16:01,500
possible as well. 
Right, but at the moment, I'm 

311
00:16:01,500 --> 00:16:04,000
not quite sure how to do that. 
That's true. 

312
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,200
I imagine just play it a lot 
Frey and it like I first few 

313
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,200
might have been provided and 
linear but we don't know what 

314
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,700
the randomness of the characters
that are unlocked afterwards 

315
00:16:12,700 --> 00:16:15,000
would be yeah. 
Yeah be nice to kind of like, oh

316
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,400
if you want this specific 
character then like get up to 

317
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,700
this map and finish this purse. 
This this Court's Vehicles. 

318
00:16:22,700 --> 00:16:24,800
Yeah. 
Sounds like we all segueing 

319
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,400
quite nicely into the bad Points
bad points am hit me. 

320
00:16:27,700 --> 00:16:31,800
I think the biggest bad point 
for me was the the on online 

321
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,900
connectivity. 
My my commute now is totally 

322
00:16:34,900 --> 00:16:38,500
different where I need. 
It doesn't give me like an 

323
00:16:38,500 --> 00:16:40,200
online connection whenever I'm 
in the subway. 

324
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,400
Yep, and not only did I 
experience, you know the Midway 

325
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,000
while you're playing a map and 
it doesn't save your progress or

326
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,500
anything like that sort of just 
like craps out it also Hence you

327
00:16:51,500 --> 00:16:55,200
from starting it up. 
And anyway, and I found that to 

328
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:59,200
be like so baffling I guess 
because like most developed 

329
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,200
countries that have the 
possibility of playing this game

330
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,200
on your phone as much better 
internet connections. 

331
00:17:06,500 --> 00:17:10,000
That's why it set that way. 
But yeah, it just drove me to 

332
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,900
try attempted. 
Try attempt it again got it 

333
00:17:12,900 --> 00:17:15,099
working and then like I'd lose 
connection for a little bit and 

334
00:17:15,099 --> 00:17:18,200
it totally crap out not save my 
progress, right and there's 

335
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,800
something so passive-aggressive 
about the message as well. 

336
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,099
It wasn't even like oh you seem 
to be offline. 

337
00:17:23,099 --> 00:17:24,099
Please. 
Try again later. 

338
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,300
If it was I don't remember 
exactly what the phrasing was 

339
00:17:27,300 --> 00:17:30,100
but like connection error 7 512 
one. 

340
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,600
Yeah. 
It's like the that error code 

341
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,100
not human and it's just like 
what is this thing? 

342
00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:38,600
And I don't feel good about what
happened just now while the 

343
00:17:38,608 --> 00:17:42,900
racing you I enjoyed and kind of
keep me those Mario Kart Vibes 

344
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,900
everything else around it the 
actual app UI I guess. 

345
00:17:49,700 --> 00:17:54,500
Not only was it like cluttered 
and unintuitive it also feels 

346
00:17:54,500 --> 00:17:59,300
slow somehow tapping on buttons 
This is kind of a lag to it, 

347
00:17:59,300 --> 00:18:03,200
which is not pleasing. 
It is wasn't fun to use the rest

348
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,700
of the app outside of the actual
racing part. 

349
00:18:05,700 --> 00:18:07,200
Right? 
It didn't feel like a native 

350
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,200
app. 
Yeah, it felt like they're using

351
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,500
like web components and somehow 
this was like a rapper right? 

352
00:18:12,500 --> 00:18:14,500
It's probably which is probably 
the case because I think they 

353
00:18:14,500 --> 00:18:16,700
are dynamically loading all the 
content and some of these 

354
00:18:16,700 --> 00:18:19,600
screens this in a way. 
This doesn't just doesn't feel 

355
00:18:19,900 --> 00:18:24,400
Snappy which displeases me. 
I know it does it's little 

356
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,000
things like that that I think 
really puts up the Polish. 

357
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,200
Even though it may look like 
Mario just like the transition 

358
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,800
from like the one one cup to the
other cup. 

359
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,700
It's the frame rate is very 
slow. 

360
00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:39,300
And that's not using to me. 
My other big issue is the 

361
00:18:39,300 --> 00:18:42,400
driving. 
I think if I got had more chance

362
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,000
to play with it and actually got
used to it without a crapping 

363
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,400
out online. 
I think I would have ended up 

364
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,100
liking it a little bit even 
though it's really different 

365
00:18:51,100 --> 00:18:54,800
from like what I expect from a 
regular Mario game. 

366
00:18:54,900 --> 00:18:57,200
Yeah. 
I think there is some fun. 

367
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,800
To be had but because of the 
online connectivity like I just 

368
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,400
didn't find that combination 
fun. 

369
00:19:02,900 --> 00:19:06,800
It wasn't it wasn't a tappable 
touchable. 

370
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,600
Joyous experience for me Sam. 
What is your final 70 rating two

371
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,400
days? 
Oh ouch. 

372
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:17,200
There's a harsh one for me. 
I gave it a good go for both 

373
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,200
days. 
I probably tried maybe about 

374
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,100
like three or four times on each
day. 

375
00:19:21,100 --> 00:19:22,600
And each time. 
I had like some online 

376
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,300
connection. 
Yeah that prevented progress. 

377
00:19:25,300 --> 00:19:27,200
So I actually didn't really 
unlock anything. 

378
00:19:27,300 --> 00:19:30,300
Thing or wasn't able to yeah, 
how far did you get? 

379
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,900
Oh, well, let me tell you I will
show you actually no, no, okay. 

380
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,600
Okay Mario cop New York cheap 
cheap Lagoon. 

381
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,400
I couldn't finish this. 
I've tried like seven times and 

382
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:48,400
it never recorded my progress. 
So after the second day of 

383
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,000
trying I was like, okay, I am 
not going to attempt us. 

384
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,600
And yeah, it's sad face. 
This is a solid five. 

385
00:19:57,700 --> 00:20:01,600
I got up to well, there's no 
numbering but yes, I did get 

386
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,000
past Cheep Cheep Lagoon. 
And now the O Sheikh up. 

387
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,800
Oh, wow, Daisy Hills, which I 
think is three screens of 

388
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,800
swiping even the swiping between
is kind of gross its Blacky and 

389
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,900
yeah rates really slow and then 
like the I'm just loading a 

390
00:20:15,900 --> 00:20:17,000
second later. 
Yeah. 

391
00:20:17,300 --> 00:20:20,300
Yeah five days. 
I'm gonna keep it around but 

392
00:20:20,300 --> 00:20:22,800
very difficult to play on my 
computer, which is what's the 

393
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,100
reason I play games right? 
Like I wish this was playable 

394
00:20:26,100 --> 00:20:29,600
Mike meet ya, but yeah, 
unfortunately it is not well. 

395
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,300
Thank you Sam for thank you for 
saying thank you for Sam. 

396

Thank you for suggesting Mario 
Kart World Tour.

Peak where Fortune glory and 
death awaits. 

424
00:22:09,500 --> 00:22:13,300
It'll take sharp puzzle. 
I can embody this but it looks 

425
00:22:13,300 --> 00:22:16,500
like a puzzle. 
Well, I should say that as it 

426
00:22:16,500 --> 00:22:19,100
describes itself a sword 
slashing Puzzle Battle right? 

427
00:22:19,100 --> 00:22:21,700
Have you played any of those 
games from that list that they 

428
00:22:21,700 --> 00:22:24,200
mentioned so No, never heard of 
any of them Might and Magic 

429
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:25,200
Clash of Heroes. 
Yeah. 

430
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:30,800
So this is from a game company 
called capybara hmm cutest of 

431
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,300
animals, right the cutest and 
it's like a kangaroo. 

432
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,300
It kind of looks like a mix 
between a kangaroo and a dog. 

433
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,200
Well, dr. 
Rue, okay, but you know less 

434
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,700
scary than a kangaroo is 
kangaroos are I've seen those 

435
00:22:44,700 --> 00:22:51,900
viral YouTube videos. never 
punch a kangaroo But yeah, 

436
00:22:51,900 --> 00:22:53,400
awesome. 
I'm looking forward to this one 

437
00:22:53,700 --> 00:22:57,400
truly it is well, yeah because 
only you say that I don't either

438
00:22:57,500 --> 00:23:00,800
but this time maybe I do yeah, 
so Might and Magic Clash of 

439
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,400
Heroes was one of the games that
I played on the Gameboy. 

440
00:23:05,300 --> 00:23:08,700
On the 3DS that I really read o 
might have actually been for the

441
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:13,200
Game Boy Advance hmm going back 
in time. 

442
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,400
Yeah, dude, but it's one. 
It's a really great game and 

443
00:23:16,700 --> 00:23:18,700
this company made it. 
So I'm looking forward to this 

444
00:23:18,700 --> 00:23:19,400
one. 
Hmm. 

445
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,500
Well tune in next week to see if
Sam likes it again or not. 

446
00:23:23,700 --> 00:23:25,700
Before we go Sam. 
Do you have a thing of the week?

447
00:23:25,700 --> 00:23:29,000
I recently watch something on 
Netflix that I think a lot of 

448
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,000
people should watch it's it's 
called inside bills brain. 

449
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,300
Mmm. 
This before no. 

450
00:23:36,300 --> 00:23:37,300
No. 
The reason I said that is 

451
00:23:37,300 --> 00:23:41,100
because my boyfriend keeps 
saying we should watch this. 

452
00:23:41,300 --> 00:23:42,700
Yeah, it's really good. 
Okay, great. 

453
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:47,300
It's only a three episode sort 
of style not stylized I'd say 

454
00:23:47,300 --> 00:23:51,900
but like a well produced 
documentary about Bill Gates and

455
00:23:51,900 --> 00:23:54,600
he's in it. 
Melinda is in it Melinda being 

456
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,400
Bill Gates his wife not our 
buddy Melinda. 

457
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,300
We don't have a buddy Melinda 
just find one. 

458
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,200
But it's just really 
fascinating. 

459
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,700
I think always like these deep 
dives into someone who has done 

460
00:24:06,700 --> 00:24:10,000
a lot of stuff is super 
fascinating but you get to 

461
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,400
realize how much he's actually 
done. 

462
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,200
Yeah, and there's this really 
good quote in there that says, 

463
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,400
you know, like everyday things 
don't really get reported 

464
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,100
because it's not as exciting as 
like these big breakout moments 

465
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,300
and I feel like Bill Gates is 
someone that does everyday 

466
00:24:25,300 --> 00:24:28,700
things to make improvements on 
everyday things. 

467
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,300
Right and it's just like the 
compounded nature. 

468
00:24:31,500 --> 00:24:35,400
Of all those benefits that Stack
Up is really beneficial to the 

469
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,300
world so you can pay him. 
We like a Steve Jobs, right? 

470
00:24:38,300 --> 00:24:41,900
And Steve Job is just a complete
dick it does this grapple them 

471
00:24:41,900 --> 00:24:45,500
unto himself and oh, yeah, he 
made some great products, but 

472
00:24:45,500 --> 00:24:47,900
they're that's it. 
Yeah, he's revered as a whole. 

473
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,200
Do you know let's let's spend a 
minute to be quiet for a Steve 

474
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,900
Jobs or his death anniversary. 
And yeah, well, I'm yeah, but 

475
00:24:55,900 --> 00:24:58,600
then you compare it to like what
Bill Gates has done right who 

476
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,200
doesn't really have that same. 
I don't think I've ever hear 

477
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,000
people going. 
I want to be the Bill Gates, 

478
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,700
well, maybe they do but maybe 
there's still doesn't quite he 

479
00:25:04,708 --> 00:25:08,500
doesn't have the same cachet for
whatever reason but he's like 

480
00:25:08,500 --> 00:25:10,900
done a bunch of amazing stuff 
amazing things. 

481
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,900
Yeah, and this sort of like goes
through all of this like not all

482
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:16,000
of it, but just like some of the
really important things that 

483
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,900
he's trying to solve and I think
it's just a really fascinating 

484
00:25:19,900 --> 00:25:23,100
look into the guy my thing of 
the week Joseph Gordon-Levitt 

485
00:25:23,100 --> 00:25:25,900
has a podcast been out for a 
couple of months, but I'm 

486
00:25:26,100 --> 00:25:30,700
finally catching up creative 
processing with Joseph 

487
00:25:30,700 --> 00:25:33,900
Gordon-Levitt. 
I have a feeling you really like

488
00:25:33,900 --> 00:25:38,200
Third Rock From the Sun if you 
tell me that you have some 

489
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,100
secret fandom for Stewart 
French. 

490
00:25:40,100 --> 00:25:47,900
Then I know that I mean he won't
install Gates and I think French

491
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:50,500
Stewart, I believe I was at yeah
against Muslims French was 

492
00:25:50,500 --> 00:25:52,400
amazing. 
Sadly. 

493
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,100
He didn't quite go on to quite 
the same success as maybe some 

494
00:25:55,100 --> 00:25:56,800
his co-hosts. 
Yeah. 

495
00:25:57,500 --> 00:25:59,600
Yeah big tower of the sun fan 
back in the day. 

496
00:26:00,100 --> 00:26:03,700
I think I taped it. 
Every episode on VHS amazing off

497
00:26:03,700 --> 00:26:06,800
the TV. 
Yeah, and then there was one 

498
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,700
episode where I was at our 
house. 

499
00:26:08,700 --> 00:26:11,600
So I got my brother to do it and
he forgot so they like one Lost 

500
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:12,900
episode. 
I see before. 

501
00:26:12,900 --> 00:26:18,600
Yeah, so so Furious But now you 
can just watch them all for free

502
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:24,300
on I think the one who yeah, 
okay, who do a Netflix see your 

503
00:26:24,300 --> 00:26:24,900
things? 
All right. 

504
00:26:24,900 --> 00:26:28,900
So you're saying I'm creating 
processing from jgl basic 

505
00:26:28,900 --> 00:26:32,800
tenants of this is he takes a 
listener question around 

506
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:37,100
creativity or the world of art 
or does dear General things 

507
00:26:37,500 --> 00:26:41,600
productivity or Focus or how do 
you get things done, you know as

508
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,500
a as a creative person and then 
he finds someone from here. 

509
00:26:45,700 --> 00:26:49,400
Is rather large Rolodex, which 
I'm sure he definitely has of 

510
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,000
Industry contacts and then talk 
to them about it. 

511
00:26:52,300 --> 00:26:56,700
He's got Ron Johnson on that 
first episode which kind of made

512
00:26:56,700 --> 00:26:59,600
me want to go watch Brick again,
which was their first that's a 

513
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:00,500
great movie. 
Yeah. 

514
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,600
So like for example that 
question for that episode is how

515
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,900
do you get inspired by other 
people's creations and create 

516
00:27:05,900 --> 00:27:08,100
something unique that is 
completely your own without 

517
00:27:08,100 --> 00:27:09,900
taking too much from my 
inspiration. 

518
00:27:10,900 --> 00:27:13,300
I think is very fascinating 
because you know, Ron Johnson 

519
00:27:13,300 --> 00:27:15,200
has a lot of original stuff, but
then he's also in the Star Wars 

520
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,900
thing. 
NG so like how do you work with 

521
00:27:16,900 --> 00:27:19,500
in that regards your feelings 
for that movie? 

522
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,800
I feel things interesting. 
Like how does it create a 

523
00:27:21,808 --> 00:27:25,800
filmmaker thin work within the 
confines of like a giant kind of

524
00:27:25,808 --> 00:27:28,400
rigid structure of well, you 
could be super interesting. 

525
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,900
So that's a great episode the 
next one which I'm halfway 

526
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:36,900
through right now is as an 
artist reflecting on political 

527
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,300
problems. 
Is that a cop-out should you 

528
00:27:39,300 --> 00:27:44,100
actually be active rather than 
just making like fun images that

529
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:47,400
are political should you 
actually be You're volunteering 

530
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,500
and actually doing political 
work rather than just making art

531
00:27:50,500 --> 00:27:51,500
about it. 
Mmm. 

532
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,900
And so he gets Shepard Fairey 
who did who's like behind the 

533
00:27:55,900 --> 00:27:59,800
obey Andre the Giant's classical
stuff. 

534
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,300
I'm learning. 
Well like oh, that's what that 

535
00:28:01,300 --> 00:28:03,100
is. 
So I let slip bunch of stuff. 

536
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,200
He's a very good host because 
he's great and I love him but 

537
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:10,500
he's also a human host. 
And he has like a whole bunch of

538
00:28:10,500 --> 00:28:13,700
just people you have heard of 
and then people you should have 

539
00:28:13,700 --> 00:28:16,000
heard of how interesting I would
say check it out. 

540
00:28:16,100 --> 00:28:18,600
This is definitely getting on my
list and also be scenario is 

541
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,600
like a limited run. 
So it's not going to go on every

542
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,600
week for eternity. 
I think it finishes this week or

543
00:28:24,608 --> 00:28:27,900
next week creative processing 
with Joseph Gordon-Levitt. 

544
00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:30,500
And that's our show Sam. 
You have seven days to play 

545
00:28:30,500 --> 00:28:36,300
