Hello survivors and welcome back to another episode of Will you Survive.
Speaker 2:The Podcast.
Speaker 1:And today we got a special one for you Not really special. You know what we're talking about. We're talking about the last four episodes of the Netflix series. All of Us Are Dead. As always, I'm joined by my two co-hosts. We've got I'm Eric, I'm Alex, that's Merrick, that's Alex and Okay, hang on, there's some backstory to that one.
Speaker 3:I think you might know this as well, but I told TJ a lot of times. When people ask me what my name is, I'll say I'm eric, but I'm saying it too fast, and multiple times I've got people going oh, hi, merrick. I'm like nope, oh, but I don't have the heart to tell them because it's usually just in passing but yeah, we're talking about all of us are dead.
Speaker 1:The last four episodes of the season. There are 12 in total. Um, what'd you guys? There was so much heartbreak there was. There was a episodes of the season. There are 12 in total um what'd you guys?
Speaker 3:there was so much heartbreak there was.
Speaker 1:There was a lot of heartbreak. There's a lot of craziness going on. I watched this today, a couple hours ago, on 2x speed, so so you didn't get the proper time to digest at all no, no, it was just. Hey, he's dead oh.
Speaker 3:Yeah, there was a lot of a lot. Oh my gosh, so many sacrifices in this last four episodes, so many sad moments.
Speaker 1:Should we? We should start from the you know.
Speaker 3:I know you're the host man.
Speaker 1:Okay, no, wherever you want to go, I just want to say Anjo's father did not need to fucking sacrifice himself there by closing the gate and just letting his daughter watch him get eaten alive.
Speaker 3:That was not no yeah, it felt a little unnecessary, but I think he was trying to to lock them in so that they could escape easier. But I feel like he definitely could have just done that I know at least one of these motherfuckers had a belt I felt like he grabbed enough supplies from the uh that shop that he could have tied the gate shut yeah
Speaker 1:zip ties something like that backpack strap. You could have just tied the backpack around it exactly. It felt a little unnecessary rip, that was stupid, yeah, um okay, I'm not gonna lie, I've seen this series.
Speaker 3:I remember loving it the first time. The second time I've analyzed it a little more. It gets a little silly towards the end, but it's still really good I didn't really have a beef with it I don't have a beef with it, it's just a little silly there were maybe a couple of spots like the.
Speaker 2:The fact that the bully kept coming around and kept coming around and kept coming around was like okay, I'm getting tired of this guy.
Speaker 3:No I get that. That actually I kind of got because I mean that was kind of a big plot, or a big part of the plot is that he really wanted to to uh get revenge on chong sun. But I I do understand that he was, uh, he was a bit annoying, but I think it showed the virus. Um, I guess, kind of using his anger and his I don't even know what kind of feeling he had, because it wasn't really revenge he started everything well, it was revenge for chongsun taking his eye that's I guess that's true, he was really wanting to take
Speaker 1:that eye dude. Like I don't get.
Speaker 3:It like yeah, he was he.
Speaker 1:He wanted chong sun so bad yeah, he can't really grow his eye back, so I get like the beef there, but like I don't really like. Bro, you are literally immortal.
Speaker 3:Go do something yeah, after losing like the fourth time, I feel like you should just give up.
Speaker 1:It's getting embarrassing immune to fall damage. He's falled. He's fell like out of windows off top of buildings up, like apparently namra too.
Speaker 3:Did you see the very last scene? Yeah she just jumped.
Speaker 1:Yeah, what the fuck I'm sure she did some cool shit and like slid down the pipe or something that was so dramatic it was very dramatic. She's like a superhero.
Speaker 3:I love her yeah, it was pretty dope, I can't lie.
Speaker 1:It was very dramatic though she's like, okay, they're, and then hopped off the roof all dramatic.
Speaker 3:Is there anything you guys particularly want to talk about with these last four?
Speaker 2:Okay, so there was. I felt like we were traveling in circles. Did anybody else feel that way?
Speaker 1:Well, in what way? Yeah, in what way.
Speaker 2:There was no linear path to let's get the fuck out of here. It was like running round and round the fuck out of here, like it was. It was like running round and round like why did they go to that construction site? Why did they stop in these random places? Why, when, when the drones came in, why did did so many of these zombies, uh, stay behind? You know what was? I'm not.
Speaker 2:I didn't follow why that plan didn't work, you know like a hundred percent or at least at least more than than it did so breaking it down, um.
Speaker 3:One thing I did have a problem with was, uh, when the drones started emitting the noise, namra and guinam both responded to it. They both, like their head, hurt really bad from it, but the zombies in the construction site didn't leave, like all the other zombies did so that was like.
Speaker 2:I guess that was very plot weapon like I mean chung song still had to run through and call them all out. Yeah, why didn't they go?
Speaker 1:maybe it's just the fact that, like you know, this virus is very like not stable, so it like mutates a lot. So they're, you know you could write it off as, like some zombies are, you know, not as attracted to sound is but then again, no, he was screaming to get them away from the group, yeah right, so they like they're attracted to sounds. Yeah, no, why didn't they fucking leave?
Speaker 3:no, it's like it's a lot of plot weapon right there to make him have to yell to attract all those zombies and then go to the top. And it was that cool scene where they all fell down the elevator shaft but they wouldn't have been there, right. So there was that. That did kind of bug me. I think they had to go through the construction site to to get to the other side, which was where the forest was, um, and then I think they got. Why did they go in the construction?
Speaker 1:site to begin with, or something we couldn't get around, or yeah, I mean, maybe there was a reason the stupid plan of it was. The government was like hey, let's blow all this you know up, right, and hey, we're gonna call all these zombies to specific places. But those specific places had a lot of people, right? So how are you going to? Hey, evacuate, right, and then immediately go to pulling all the zombies towards the areas that they're evacuating?
Speaker 3:Well they were. They were releasing that signal through the whole city saying like avoid these areas. We're going to bomb these areas, which I think is the better way to do it.
Speaker 1:I think that was the best way they could have handled it, rather than just like nuking the whole city, which apparently korea doesn't have nukes um but they would be booked if there were nukes, because the fallout it reaches like way further than where the actual explosion was and they were kind of just chilling like in the area where they saw it explode too yeah, so I don't think they were.
Speaker 3:Uh yeah, if there was a nuke they would have. There's no way they would have escaped it radioactive.
Speaker 1:He's not a good idea, oh man.
Speaker 3:No, but I, I really like that idea of actually uh luring all the zombies to to big, uh big areas that you can gather a lot in, and then just bombing most of them and then sending ground team in to clean up. That's a really smart idea.
Speaker 1:I like that lots of zombies, uh, movies and stuff. Don't do that. They just kind of carpet bomb the area and hope that that fixes it, like they did that in the last of us. But what were you gonna say, alex?
Speaker 2:no, I I think that it was uh, it was a well thought out plan, but then there was a lot of would you say I think it would be right to say dishonor in what he had done, I mean, why the general decided to take his own life when the mission was carried out. It was like there was clearly some problem with what he was doing, which is, I think, addressing your point of why are they calling all of the zombies to these areas, where they know these are the areas where there would be survivors, and then they're telling people get out well but then they, they bomb them I don't necessarily think so.
Speaker 3:I wouldn't expect a lot of survivors to be truthfully, I wouldn't expect any survivors to be at the high school.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't expect any I wouldn't expect there to be survivors. Yeah, they knew they were there. They left them. Yeah, let's jump back.
Speaker 1:That, let's jump back to the first episode that we were watching. For this episode they literally showed up, right yeah. And then they left.
Speaker 3:Episode what nine Under the commander's orders. Do you guys think that was the right call if you were the commander, given the knowledge that he was given?
Speaker 2:No, no, I mean. The fact of the matter is you were already quarantining everybody. Why the hell didn't you just quarantine these kids, strap them down, handcuff them and then take them back and isolate them? The exact same way.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I agree. What's nine more? They found out about sound really late.
Speaker 1:These kids found out about sound like attracting them way before kids found out about sound like attracting them right way before.
Speaker 3:But this was very. They were just using sound in general to get to get the attention of them. But the military determined a specific frequency that would send them like into overdrive and and drag them out of everywhere, which and that was 24 kilohertz, which is way louder than any human can hear.
Speaker 2:Which what gave me the problem another hole. They could have just played that frequency for everybody who came in to find out if they were asymptomatic.
Speaker 3:Oh, that's so true, that's a good damn point.
Speaker 2:Everybody could have passed through that.
Speaker 3:They knew it worked on Yunji, so they should have known.
Speaker 2:You just put speakers up and make everybody pass through.
Speaker 3:Well, so there was never another half bee in the camp, so maybe we can assume through context clues that they would have done that Also.
Speaker 1:I've heard there's a third way. I've heard them referred to there's half bees ham, bees and hom bees. Heard them like referred to there's half bees ham bees and hombies.
Speaker 3:Hamby, hombie dumb I have heard of them.
Speaker 1:I heard them referred to them as all of those because I watched videos on the, the show and stuff, and people were referring to them as hombies too. Yeah, but they're also attracted to flares, which I thought was weird yeah, what the fuck is that about?
Speaker 3:yeah, that was weird more than people?
Speaker 1:how? Did how did he know that they were attracted?
Speaker 3:yeah, there's nothing. There was nothing that like foreshadowed that right no, they didn't. They didn't show anything like that that was very random and out of nowhere.
Speaker 1:That was yeah, I was like how the fuck did he know that?
Speaker 3:and also also didn't the cop like the cop and the and the social media influencer and that one coward that was with him and the kids? I saw them in the quarantine camp. Did we ever see how they got there? Did I miss that?
Speaker 1:they got, um, they got surrounded by the.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that's right never mind, I remember, I remember they got shot at and then he was like don't shoot, I'm a detective, okay, I remember that, never mind also.
Speaker 1:They were just they. When they scanned, uh, prez, they were like oh, hypothermia. What the fuck do you mean? Hypothermia? She's 34 degrees, that's two degrees off, freaking frozen. Like what are you talking about? That was celsius, that was celsius, but still.
Speaker 3:But yeah, no they. She was below, she was the only one, and they were like eh, hypothermia. And they're like get her a heating blanket, which is. I'm glad they didn't immediately assume she was a zombie, but that is kind of like I don't know. I feel like they would have been a little smarter about that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they were just. They were literally checking everybody's temperature to see Right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, clearly they weren't like, are you okay?
Speaker 1:like what's your well-being? I assumed it was to check for infection, true, but like also, the infected turn really fast. So what's the point? But they discovered yeah yeah, you're actually right.
Speaker 3:Yeah, because this was right before they knew about, uh, the asymptomatic ones yeah.
Speaker 1:So what? What the fuck is the point of checking temps if, like you know, if it's that fast, you'll know?
Speaker 3:Just wait fucking 10 seconds. Yeah, you're right. I do think the last four episodes had a lot of silliness that didn't really present itself in the first eight.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I still think it's a great show, though. Yeah, the bombs were cool.
Speaker 3:I love the show.
Speaker 1:And then freaking as the fire billowing into the building. Freaking what's his name? Pulled Mullet down into the freaking elevator.
Speaker 3:You think he's still alive, by the way, no.
Speaker 1:What if he turned into a fucking half-bee?
Speaker 2:Chong San and fell onto the pile of zombies.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Chong San.
Speaker 2:I think Chong San is still alive pile of zombies.
Speaker 3:Yeah, chung san. I think chung san is still alive because all the zombies there were charred and uh on joe's name tag was still there. I feel like he would have taken that with him if there was no if her tag, or like if her name tag, wasn't there, then I would think he survived. Remember, cinema rules.
Speaker 2:If you don't see a body ain, they ain't dead.
Speaker 3:But they showed the name tag on purpose.
Speaker 1:I think that was to show like he died Because he would have taken that, but you didn't see him die, though that's like when in the Walking Dead, when we did see him die, though, freaking idiot.
Speaker 3:No, we didn't.
Speaker 2:We saw him go down the elevator.
Speaker 3:We saw the fire consume them.
Speaker 1:They were stuck on top of that dumpster with all the zombies underneath. And he freaking grabbed them, fell under. Everybody was freaking out like oh my god, Glenn's dead. Nope, he showed up a couple episodes later. Yep.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but we watched them being caught in the fire, which it was a little underwhelming how they did that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and then they turned around and killed them later.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we beef with the.
Speaker 1:Walking Dead. Here, guys Lovely show up to a certain point, but yeah.
Speaker 2:You guys agree they did introduce A lot of self sacrifice In these latter episodes.
Speaker 3:Yeah, who is the one who died in the gym? Oh, june Seong, or something like that.
Speaker 1:I don't know, archer bitch no.
Speaker 3:No, not her brother, the one who died in the gym.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that was the kid who said I said I would accept responsibility.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so he jumped over the.
Speaker 2:I think that was Jun Young oh man, she felt so horrible.
Speaker 3:The, the bully chick, uh-huh. Oh, she felt so bad. After that she had a way of like really shitting on the people she actually kind of cared about babe but in the end she got her cigarettes she's really fiending for a cigarette that whole time yeah, she was a cool character. I liked her, her character progression. Yeah, she was cool.
Speaker 1:I'm happy that the you know, because throughout the episodes we've been jumping from main group to bathroom group. I'm happy that they actually, like you know, got together.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:In the end. If not, you know not all of them. Because you know.
Speaker 3:That one dude who was hurt.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Who sacrificed himself. Oh, she really. I think she liked him, the big dude that she kept calling basically a pussy, Didn't she ask him will you go out with me?
Speaker 2:And he said no.
Speaker 3:Oh, maybe I missed it.
Speaker 2:But yeah, I think she really liked him. When did he sacrifice himself?
Speaker 3:Because he was hurt. And this was when they walk into the gym and it's dark and namra is like you guys should run, and then the lightning flashes and the whole volleyball team is in there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, um, he sacrificed himself there because she was trying to pull him and he threw himself off of the oh, that's right, she, yeah, yeah, yeah, she was trying to and it was kind of shitty that nobody else helped her yeah, yeah, nobody tried to help grab him, which was that was a bit fucked up, but she was very heartbroken about that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'd also say who's the in the main group, the badass guy who's in love with Namra Daesu. Dude he was whipped, Bro. She's over here like about to eat a person and he's like no, where are you going, uh like oh wait, no uh wrong one you're talking about uh sook, yuck and namra yeah, fucking. Yeah, he was down bad for her he turned around didn't see she was there. Oh, I gotta go back for her. Goes back, for yeah.
Speaker 3:She almost goes freaking like murderous rampage on one of his friends yeah on Anjo, and he doesn't do anything, and then Namura runs away and they both run after her Anjo too, which I think.
Speaker 1:I don't know she was. Who the fucking Anjo? We know?
Speaker 3:Anjo likes. Suhyeok well she likes him, but I think her love was Was with Changsun At that point.
Speaker 1:Nah, she said she didn't fucking, she didn't like him. No, that was already.
Speaker 3:After think. Later in the episode, when she goes to the tree at the top of the hill, she wrote the I love you, changsun, and she still had his, his, um name tag. She was, she was in love with him. She had, she wanted nothing to do with with suhyuk because suhyuk won a namra. He was, they were, they were dating at that point.
Speaker 1:I would want something to do with suhyuk, bro. He's a badass damn do he be fucking suplexing? Zombies and shit like he was pretty dope guy was fucking shit up.
Speaker 3:Yeah, for real. And he but oh, did you see? Okay, did you guys see the comparison from the whole show? We've been seeing high schoolers dealing with these zombies, suhyuk being the best of them, being just suplexing zombies left and right. The guy was badass. But then anjo's dad shows up with real adult training and takes down that zombie and snaps the leg and then it's like all right, let's keep going that. I I saw a very clear comparison of like we, we've been watching children this whole time. I forgot, right, like, there's adults with real training who can do some damage.
Speaker 2:You know where they they really I think they overdid it a little bit was with the aluminum bats and they were cracking them on the skull and they weren't dying, and they weren't dying.
Speaker 3:Like multiple hits. I kept thinking that every time they would use the bats like this isn't doing anything to them. They should have some kill counts, all of them with the bats.
Speaker 2:And they did tell us that. You know they all did have some, because that bully chick who had said like I know I've killed many zombies, but you just killed her dad in front of her.
Speaker 3:Or her brother, or you just killed her brother in front of her. A human being would apologize for killing her brother right in front of her. Oh, that was so sad. Yeah, that was nuts.
Speaker 2:That was very sad very sad scene.
Speaker 1:He was and he called her out, so he's like hey, so you didn't get nationals, yeah you didn't get the nationals, huh, because you would have, you would have been fucking out of here.
Speaker 2:If you, if you did, yeah, but oh, why'd you come back to the school?
Speaker 3:So, how was that city? So we saw when the zombies got to that city in a previous episode, when they broke the border. However, we never heard that. I don't think we ever heard that martial law was expanded outwards of Hwaisun. They never bombed outside of Hwaisun. So what was it, yangdang?
Speaker 2:I think that's what he said.
Speaker 3:Is that just like a neighborhood of Hoi San or like what was the case there? How were there so many zombies there? Clearly it had been taken over. And then, when they get there, I think it was Namra who brought up a really good point. She was like there's no zombies, or maybe it was there's no broken windows.
Speaker 3:good point she was like there's no zombies, or or maybe it was there's no broken windows, there's no blood. Yeah, she's like there's no blood in the streets. There's no broken windows. There would be if there was zombies, which I fully agree. So why was it so clean, right? Everything were zombies yeah, everything about that city was so just not overrun. Yeah, it was not zombie.
Speaker 2:Like it was very weird yeah, so okay, uh, something that I would ask you, you guys, is what did we see in the style of how would you say it? Okay, let me give you an example. When you watch Dawn of the Dead and I'm specifically that George Romero was going for was consumerism. It was displayed in his point when he said you know, why are they all coming here? He said, I don't know, maybe memory, this place was important to them when they were alive. You know, they would come here all the time, so it was a thing you know. They wanted to show that humans and consumerism was a bad thing, and that was kind of the zombieism metaphor that he was making. Do you think they were trying to do anything like that in this series? Were they trying to use zombies as a metaphor? I think so.
Speaker 3:I think the high school scientist said it himself. He said that the zombies were the very embodiment of human sin. It was every sin in the human displayed in a creature. Okay, all right, that's cool. He even tried to beat. Well, he even beat his son with a Bible in the very first episode.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know, I don't think they really I don't know really the message of this. I like when they all got to the quarantine zone zone and then they were being interviewed by the lady.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah.
Speaker 1:They were just like y'all left us basically. I liked Anjo the best Like fuck you, I'm not going to trust another.
Speaker 2:Don't ask for my cooperation. I'm not going to trust another adult. Anjo, yes, so don't ask for my cooperation.
Speaker 1:Basically, I'm not not gonna ask an adult for anything. Ever again don't ask for my cooperation. But I think that was awesome. I think maybe just adults are the, you know, like children are the future and adults are I don't know something.
Speaker 3:I think that was like the message yeah, that was something they discussed in, like the early on fourth episode, I think, is where they said um you know, yeah, children are hope and you elderly are our wisdom, so you can't get rid of either one. But which one does your country value more? And they and I think in that moment, I think in that moment they, they all kind of had sad faces, I think, realizing that their country would probably prioritize wisdom. Yeah, and so there's a couple of things on the roof.
Speaker 2:A couple of things I I pulled out of this was one the scientist, the um, the guy who started it all, uh, understood that he messed up by trying, to quote unquote, play god, right, he wanted to create a new creation. And the problem number one is he was willing to. He was willing to effectively kill his son in order to try to make him not be bullied, try to prevent him from being bullied. Right, he was willing to. He was willing to sacrifice his son for his own personal goal, like his son wasn't even willing to stand up for himself. In that regard, it's like why, why were you, why were you trying to mess with his life that bad that he wouldn't even do it, he wouldn't stand up for himself. You know, and I think that was uh essentially what he was saying when he said you know, this is the sin of all mankind. I think he brought out the worst in his son in order to try to make him stand up for himself.
Speaker 3:And, uh, that's what brought out the worst in all humankind he was even saying like, um, uh, this was the worst thing ever, because it's now the last thing he'll ever think about his kid and his wife. That's the last way he ever saw them, and so that's just the image that's ingrained in his mind, which is pretty horrible. I think the cops I think it was the cops said it very well, or I think maybe it was the commander. He was saying that I used to think, to think um, crazy militants was was bad, but crazy scientists is worse.
Speaker 1:When the bombings were happening, they really did not need to zoom in on all of the characters we've lost along the way as zombies.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that was kind of fun. That was very long. There were so many Like.
Speaker 1:Hey, remember this person got eaten. Hey, they're like hey, remember this person got eaten.
Speaker 3:Hey this hey, look it's, uh, it's chung-sun's mom, look, boom, it's on joe's dad. Yeah they, they really went through every single character that we lost for real.
Speaker 1:That was just zoomed in on their face. Hey, they were here.
Speaker 3:It was good, though. It was really good like it brought everything full circle. It didn't leave any. It was very d circle, it didn't leave any. It was very D&D-like. It didn't leave any stone unturned.
Speaker 2:It recapped everything, not only because I mean they also brought in. I mean you say full circle, talk about full circle. They brought in the opening credits.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, that was the scene for the opening credits the freaking when it zooms down. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, oh when it zooms down.
Speaker 3:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah oh. That's one thing I kept meaning to bring up in the first two episodes. One of my favorite things about this show is how short the intro is. I love it. You don't even have to skip it. It's like five seconds. It's short, and sweet and to the point.
Speaker 1:I love that. A bunch of drums zooming in on zombies. We're in.
Speaker 3:They're here. Who the zombies? I thought the gate would stop them. They knocked it down instantly.
Speaker 2:How much time do we have?
Speaker 3:They're already here.
Speaker 2:We should have bought that beautiful Los Angeles dream house in that safe neighborhood that Corinne showed us.
Speaker 3:I know it was so much more defensible and Corinne would have had us moved in before the apocalypse.
Speaker 2:Do you think it's too late to call her now? I'll try, no, no.
Speaker 3:We should have called Corinne sooner.
Speaker 2:Don't wait until it's too late. Call Corinne Salas today at 714-510-6443 and buy your Los Angeles dream house now. That's 714-510-6443. You can also find her on Instagram at next home by Corinne, or visit her website at Corinne Salas dot. Next home grand viewcom. That's C O R I N N E S A L A S dot. Next home grand viewcom.
Speaker 1:I got a question for you guys sneak peek. What are we doing next if I, if I choose either one of you to host?
Speaker 3:oh uh, I'll just choose myself.
Speaker 2:Well, shoot, that's a I know what I want to do.
Speaker 1:I think we should do another movie I want to do.
Speaker 2:I want to do uh zom 100. Bucket list of the dead.
Speaker 3:I'd be down for that then we do the freaking see that series. I did see that on netflix. I kind of want to do evil dead rise because it just got put on netflix and I want to watch it. Evil dead, is that the newest?
Speaker 1:evil dead rise okay, I think we should go through the older evil deads before we do that evil dead 2 is probably the one that I would say we watch that.
Speaker 2:Um, if we're gonna go down the the uh, the evil dead, because evil dead rise, like it doesn't really explain anything. They I've I've seen it. They just jump in expecting that you know everything and how it all came about. Is is so bizarre. And it's okay they but they made it so dark, so it's just so bizarre it's such a bizarre but, um, I think, one of my picks.
Speaker 1:I don't know if it'll be my next pick, but haunting of hill house eric's not pulling the gun on it like these I I'll do oh, I, I forgot about that one.
Speaker 3:I'm not you said movie, though you said movie.
Speaker 1:I agree, we should probably do a movie in between. We should definitely do a movie in between, oh man.
Speaker 3:But yeah, the Haunting of Hill House man, I could binge watch that in a night. That is so good.
Speaker 1:It'll give me an excuse to watch it with.
Speaker 3:Matt, you've never seen, it right? No? Oh my god, oh dude the last gotta watch it the last like the plot twist with the uh yeah, oh man, that plot twist is crazy and oh well, so this is not really that much of a spoiler, because by the time you know the scene, it'll have already had its effect on you.
Speaker 1:The car scene oh my god, the car scene.
Speaker 3:Dude, I almost shit my pants, the first time I saw that nowhere bro, that whole I was watching it in the dark. I was watching a wiener dog. We were sitting on the couch. I damn near shit my pants on this woman's couch.
Speaker 1:It scared me so bad like late at night, I think during like quarantine or something, but it just it yeah, it comes out of nowhere, dude, I was not expecting it. That would be my next pick.
Speaker 3:Oh man, that's such a good pick. I would pick that if you didn't limit it to movie.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Shout out to Brad. He gave us a nice movie recommendation Fire in the Sky. I think that would be a good one.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, aliens are always cool. I like a good alien, just a a heads up.
Speaker 2:If we're talking about uh fire in the sky, let me just give you a little uh storyline. On the evening of november 5th 1975, a group of loggers saw a bright crimson light in a forest in the White Mountains, arizona. Curious Travis Walton goes out for a closer look and is pushed to the ground by a blue-green energy beam. His co-workers escape in terror and they inform the police that Travis had been abducted by a flying saucer. For the next five days Travis remains missing and the loggers endure ridicule and contempt as they are accused of murder. When he is found alive, travis is unable to account the, yeah, classic aliens.
Speaker 1:We should do signs eventually.
Speaker 3:I was just thinking that I was thinking that exact same thing.
Speaker 2:So, in line with Will you Survive, I got to say something. In line with will you survive, I got to say something. This weekend, we were graced with the honor of being a part of a bachelor party. Oh God, Woo, Woo and you know, I do not advocate for this kind of behavior and for this reason I blacked out.
Speaker 3:One of us got very drunk. Eric was telling me Completely.
Speaker 2:Oh, the mark on your head. I don't know where. I don't, where was it?
Speaker 3:okay, I have no idea where it came from, where it was not on your head when you got in that uber. I don't know when that happened. I only lost eyes on you for like five seconds, and it was when you snuck out of the bathroom and I didn't see you. And then you walked out the back exit into the alley and then when I I walked back down because I went to the bathroom to look for you and you weren't there. So then I was like where the fuck did he go? So I start walking and I thought I saw you on the other side of the glass. So I go to the back door and I open it and you were just standing there staring at the door, so lost.
Speaker 1:I can't. That's why he's not drinking tonight, because he's still drunk from two days ago, dude.
Speaker 3:He told me when he was walking in. He was like I'm still too messed up, I'm not going to skip my bourbon tonight. Well and.
Speaker 1:I've got the cure to a hangover is more alcohol.
Speaker 2:So, yeah, you know, I contemplated having a beer but I just sticking with water, I was fine.
Speaker 1:It's because air can drink one beer and be fucking tipsy.
Speaker 3:So that, truth be told, alex was saving me a bit throughout the night, because they kept ordering me drinks that I cannot handle, and I know I can't handle, so he drank a few of my drinks for me, so that was very nice. Oh, so it's your fault A little bit. Maybe my cousin. Oh man, he got fucked up. He started resorting to just speaking tax code to me at like 1.30 in the morning.
Speaker 1:Jesus.
Speaker 3:We're sitting in a bar and he's like S-Corp and I'm like, yes, yes, s corp.
Speaker 2:he's like s corp. I'm like that's yeah, dude, fire, dude, that's fire.
Speaker 3:Tell me more I'm like that's so interesting. He's like file, but remind me of file form 2553 tomorrow. And I was like you got it, bro, and I'm in my calendar or I'm on text scheduling a message for the morning. I'm like file form 2553. And then the next morning he was like I don't even file that form.
Speaker 1:I don't know why I told you that rough iras yeah yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 3:He just started speaking tax to me and I was like all right. And meanwhile his uncles, the the whole time, were like let's get another drink. And I'm like, guys, it is 2 am. Alex just stumbled out the back door, can't stand up straight. You guys are no better. One of his uncles peed on a storefront.
Speaker 2:Oh damn.
Speaker 1:We were waiting at the bus stop. We were waiting at the bus stop.
Speaker 3:We were waiting at the bus stop waiting for our Uber to get there. So they're all sitting on a bus stop bench and then one of them gets up, walks over to the little indent in the wall like a little doorway and he's just sitting there in a corner. And I remember I'm looking at the Uber and I'm talking to my cousin and I think about it for a second. I'm like that's weird that he's over there. And then I look away and then I think about it for a second, like he's fucking peeing on the wall I don't advocate for that kind of behavior because that is the easiest way to get hurt oh my god, it was so bad I did hurt myself and I don't know how I did it.
Speaker 2:And uh, I'm just grateful that uh eric called my wife and told her that he had put me in an uber on my way home and was like, yeah, I don't think he's gonna be able to get upstairs he would have slept at the front gate and apparently I was just standing there at the front gate. I had a key, I guess I forgot how to use keys. Yeah, I kind of thought that was going to happen.
Speaker 1:Small piece of metal. How do I, how do I unlock your secrets?
Speaker 3:When I saw him at the urinal I was like he's not making it upstairs.
Speaker 2:I am not in my twenties anymore.
Speaker 1:dude, I can't, I can't do that shit, I think that, but it's you know it's just never, ever, ever good to lose control.
Speaker 2:Don't, don't do that. You know I'm all for having fun and stuff, but clearly I have lost my understanding of of my abilities because I know back in the day I used to do that shit all the time. But now I mean I barely ever drink, but I drank like I used to.
Speaker 1:Well, you, know what that means Just one less drink and you'll be good.
Speaker 2:I think it was probably like three less drinks.
Speaker 1:Don't go out with Eric, because you're going to have to drink all his shit.
Speaker 3:Okay, it wasn't entirely my fault because at one of the bars we ordered a round of drinks and I'd only had like one full beer at that point, and and because I was trying to stay somewhat sober, because the plan was that after we ubered from pasadena, uh, I was going to drive elijah and me back to my grandparents, which was like 10 minutes away by the time we got there.
Speaker 3:His Nana used to be a cop and I was going to ask her to run a sobriety test on me, cause I was like I don't know, I feel a little groggy. But then I was like I feel like if I have to ask, that's probably a no, so I just ordered us an Uber and then we went back, got his car in the morning.
Speaker 1:Yeah, very responsible. Yeah, I would have just left Alex I think that's better.
Speaker 2:No, I went the other way. They all went the opposite direction. I went west, they went east. I was all by myself.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I contemplated going home with you just because I was a little worried. But I was like eh, it'll be okay. Yeah, it'll be okay. I'm not worried about the Uber driver doing anything to you.
Speaker 2:No, okay. Yeah, it'll be okay.
Speaker 1:I'm not worried about the uber driver doing anything to you. So no, that was, that was, but. But that's exactly. I mean, that's exactly my point. You wouldn't know if the driver did anything to him.
Speaker 2:He's back out that's.
Speaker 3:It was on his phone too, and like I'm like I have no way of tracking this uber. Yeah, I, I just turns out don't recommend that kind of behavior.
Speaker 2:Stay, stay in control.
Speaker 3:Don't lose all control. Do you know if you talked to the Uber driver?
Speaker 2:No idea.
Speaker 1:Uber driver was actually P Diddy. He was in disguise.
Speaker 2:I don't remember, after that third bar or the fourth bar, I guess I've never gotten that drunk he's like my butt is really sore.
Speaker 3:I don't remember anything after that.
Speaker 2:I've never gotten that drunk. He's like my butt is really sore Like I don't remember anything after that.
Speaker 1:I've never gotten that drunk. I've got to the point where, like I'm throwing up a shitload, but like Me too.
Speaker 3:I'll throw up before I black out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I've never gotten black out, yeah that's my curse.
Speaker 2:I don't, I don't Like Did in the morning.
Speaker 1:I remember that fucking fireball.
Speaker 3:I like fireball.
Speaker 1:So much fireball, I love fireball too, so much fireball.
Speaker 3:I apparently like the weird alcohols Because when I ordered Jaeger, that cocktail waitress was surprised.
Speaker 1:You ever had Disarano.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:Love that.
Speaker 2:Amaretto.
Speaker 3:Oh, I fucking love Amaretto. Oh, my god, that'll mess, you up too, though that's my favorite.
Speaker 1:Disarano pour that shit in some freaking Dr Pepper. That's good.
Speaker 3:Let me bring this to survival for just a second before we close this out. We've kind of briefly mentioned this before. They don't really do this in the show, so we're definitely off topic. But uh, drinking alcohol during an apocalypse, yeah, that's a very risky move you gotta have I can see why people would do it, but you have to, you can't.
Speaker 2:I mean, could you imagine that getting blackout drunk like that?
Speaker 3:you know you get blackout, forget you're in an apocalypse that's actually uh. There's a survival situation on project zomboid that I've never wanted to try because it sounds miserable where you spawn in in a house that's on fire, you have a broken leg, you're drunk and you have an open wound on your head and it's snowing outside and you have to survive that and you have to survive from that situation, jesus and I'm like that's like it's, it's a challenge to see if you can find a way to to survive that situation oh, that's.
Speaker 2:Interesting, it's somewhat of.
Speaker 3:I wouldn't say it's a realistic situation, but I would say, if you're drunk enough, you could end yourself up in a situation like that. True, but you'd have to be so drunk.
Speaker 1:If you're drunk enough, you're not going to care about your leg.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you're going to have a lot of adrenaline. I guess I'm walking out the house.
Speaker 2:I don't know, man, I don't know. I don't recommend it. Survivors, keep your wits about you. Don't let yourself get like that definitely don't lose control.
Speaker 2:You know, there's nothing worse than thinking like number one. You know, on the lightest end of the scale did I make an ass of myself? You know? Did I say stupid shit? Did I? Did I call somebody that I shouldn't have called in the middle of the night? Did I? You know what? What did I do? I had to go through my my call logs to make sure I didn't frigging call anybody Call calls his work, just calling my boss Exactly, cause I'm not going to be in tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Call Eric's mom. Oh God. Oh, I don't think he could ever get drunk enough to do that. I miss you.
Speaker 3:Oh, my god, I don't think he'd ever be drunk enough to do that. That'd be funny.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, never gotten that drunk, I've you know. Yeah, no, I remember all the times I've been drunk Never you know. Never forgotten anything? I don't think I'll ever get to the point of blackout. I don't, I, I, I feel like I would be embarrassed um, yeah, that that's my biggest thing.
Speaker 3:I I'm too worried, I'm too self-conscious.
Speaker 1:I've had the my, my aunt, I think it was like her birthday or something, I don't know. But, um, I was staying at her house, um for a minute, and her friend just like walked in, like hey, got your aunt down here. I can't get her up the stairs because her bedroom was upstairs. I was like I got you, I'll help you. And uh, dude, drunk people, dude, I swear they're, they're even heavier than yeah, like it's crazy that's what that's what my wife said to me yeah she.
Speaker 3:She texted me and she was like uh, by the way, he's very heavy. Like how the hell did she get you upstairs?
Speaker 1:I don't know, I could barely get a freaking like five two latina up some stairs. You think I can get like how the fuck? But you know, nobody's getting my ass up some stairs. If I uh get blackout, they don't have to leave.
Speaker 3:That must have been so scary walking our walkway. It's not really that scary, but we're on the third floor and it's like a really thin, narrow walkway with rails on the side, flipping over that yeah, I think about it all the time. Not that I want to, that I fear a strong wind is going to take me over one day, but that would scare me you stumbling through that walkway. Yeah.
Speaker 2:It was nuts. So you know, good reminder, know your limitations, relax, you know, and that'll be good for this week when we go to the wedding oh yeah, oh yeah, weddings, it's uh mine, so mine will be.
