Will you survive "War of the worlds": Tripods, Blood Spray, and Questionable Parenting

Will You Survive... The Podcast

Could you survive an alien invasion? When towering tripods emerge from beneath the streets, using humans as gardening material for mysterious red plants, would you know what to do?

Steven Spielberg's 2005 adaptation of War of the Worlds offers a masterclass in both catastrophic alien invasion scenarios and questionable parenting choices. Tom Cruise plays Ray Ferrier, a divorced father who suddenly must protect his estranged children from death rays, human desperation, and unhinged basement dwellers.

Throughout our discussion, we break down the critical survival strategies that work in this film - and potentially in real-world disasters too. Ray's resourcefulness with vehicles becomes crucial, while his decision to flee rather than hunker down proves wise given his lack of supplies. We analyze the importance of stealth movement, avoiding confrontation, and the psychological challenges of parenting during crisis. The basement scene particularly highlights the fine line between finding shelter and becoming trapped with unpredictable strangers.

What fascinates us most is the film's exploration of human resilience. The aliens' ultimate downfall comes not from military might but from Earth's bacteria - organisms we've evolved alongside for millennia. This unexpected alliance between humans and microbes delivers a powerful message about adaptation and belonging. As Morgan Freeman's narration suggests, we've earned our place on this planet through countless generations of survival.

Whether you're preparing for the apocalypse or just enjoying disaster cinema, join us as we dissect alien tactics, breakdown of social order, and the surprising advantages humans might have against technologically superior invaders. Remember - having a well-stocked pantry and keeping your Faraday bag ready could make all the difference when the tripods arrive!

Speaker 1:

Hello, hello, survivors, and welcome back to another episode of Will you Survive, the Podcast. Today we are talking about something very special, as I say every fucking episode very special. How marvelous. A 2005 film featuring Tom Cruise. Yes, a vintage. Yeah, we're talking about War of the Worlds movie, released in 2005. It is a alien invasion movie, which the last alien movie we did was Science Skip around zombies. Now we don't even like zombies anymore.

Speaker 3:

We're just we're in aliens. Whoa yeah, we like zombies.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, what's your favorite type of alien guys? You?

Speaker 3:

know Me crossing out my entire D&D idea for this.

Speaker 1:

Zombies are hereby banned forever and always. We don't talk about aliens. What Speaking of aliens, alex, would you like to give us, because you have a big head?

Speaker 3:

I'm just kidding.

Speaker 1:

No, it's because you're Mexican.

Speaker 3:

Oh, Alex and Eric are here, they're my co-hosts.

Speaker 1:

Say hi, resident aliens.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Wow.

Speaker 1:

Hi, I'm Eric.

Speaker 2:

And I'm Alex.

Speaker 1:

Instead of growing blood vines, you grow frijoles everywhere. Would you like to give the synopsis of the story, Alex?

Speaker 2:

I sure would. An ordinary man has to protect his children against alien invaders in this science fiction action film, freely adapted from the classic story by hg wells, ray ferrier is a dock worker living in new york, new jersey, divorced from his first wife, marianne, and estranged from his two children, rachel and robbie, of whom he has custody on weekends on one such visitation. Looking after the kids becomes a little more difficult when, after a series of strange lightning storms hit his neighborhood, ray discovers that a fleet of Death Ray robotic spaceships have emerged nearby, part of the first wave of an all-out alien invasion of the Earth. Transporting his children from New Jersey to Boston in an attempt to find safety at Marianne's parents' house, ray must learn to become the protector and provider he never was in marriage.

Speaker 1:

So yeah, pretty standard plot. It's very 2012. 2005. Get in the car, drive away, estranged father. There's a new husband. You know it's surprising. The new husband didn't die, though the wife and the father did not get back together.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, but this father was not great throughout a lot of it he was definitely like in the beginning. He was definitely just as freaked out as they were, if not more.

Speaker 1:

He was freaked out throughout the whole freaking thing he locked in near the end.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, exactly, he was not great at keeping his kids calm and under control.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and he didn't give off a very I'm going to protect you energy, Like when his daughter was like, because the son tried to leave with the army, he's like if you leave, who's going to protect me? Right? That would have hurt my feelings.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

No doubt.

Speaker 3:

No doubt that little girl invoked a lot of feelings for me. Wanting to punch her was one of them, when she screamed in the car when he was driving.

Speaker 2:

She screamed a lot.

Speaker 3:

She was like I love mommy Like an instinctual part of me, just like I just wanted to punch her.

Speaker 1:

Like that while driving.

Speaker 3:

While driving, you're getting punched.

Speaker 1:

That's crazy. Don't you dare scream in my ear like that.

Speaker 3:

Oh, yeah, no seatbelt, I hope.

Speaker 1:

I hope is crazy.

Speaker 2:

Shout out to Dakota.

Speaker 1:

Fanning, you played a really annoying little girl yeah.

Speaker 2:

That gave me the same vibes as world war z when they were in philadelphia. And he hits the gas following that that dump truck that's just plowing through, or the garbage truck that's just plowing through traffic, and the daughter's in the back seat screaming that she wanted her oh, yeah, something doll or blanket or something yeah, whatever it was, teddy or whatever it was, yeah, I was just driving me absolutely out of my mind.

Speaker 3:

But that was not nearly as bad as like. It's like what my brother has started doing, where he's like just high pitch scream at the top of his lungs until he gets what he wants and I'm like, bro, I'm going to drop, kick you.

Speaker 1:

That's why you keep a nerf. That is unacceptable.

Speaker 2:

Taxing it.

Speaker 1:

Tax.

Speaker 2:

Damn. That's why you keep a nerf gun.

Speaker 1:

With tax in it. Damn dude. Goes far enough in to hurt, but not enough to do damage.

Speaker 3:

I think it'll do damage to a two year old yeah.

Speaker 2:

I'm pretty sure it would. It just goes through their arm, yeah so. But vastly different, vastly different parenting skills. So, guys, we are but vastly different parenting skills.

Speaker 1:

So, guys we are Will you Survive the Podcast? We do talk about survival, that we do what do you do in the situation at the start, when everything starts popping off? Do you stay there or do you go on the run, or what's your plan?

Speaker 2:

See, in this particular case, I think he made the right decision to get the heck out of there. The reason he got the heck out of there was probably not the best reason for the kid's mental state, Because the son was right. The whole reason why he wanted to get them to Boston or get them to her mom was so that he doesn't have to worry about them anymore. He just worries about himself. And although that's true, I think even even Ray knew that he wasn't the better parent in the situation.

Speaker 3:

So I was kind of thinking that like it is a little bit selfish, but at the same time it's also like realistic. They hated the way he was parenting, so it is probably better that they go with their mom. Um, and what I do admire is that he wasn't willing to leave them at all, even when it came to the car and it came to the military and all these different points where he ran after his kid into danger and and was protecting them, even though all of his actions were pretty cowardly.

Speaker 2:

When it counted he was, he was there yeah, yeah, and he had a couple of things going for him that we we noticed throughout the the film. He is rather resourceful. You saw this right in the beginning when he's walking by the mechanic shop and the guy asks him, you know, he's like hey, it just died, I don't know what, what's going on, like nothing's working, so try changing the solenoid. And then later on he comes back and he was like hey, you were right, you know, that's what it was. So clearly he's. He's fairly resourceful. He can think on his head feet, if you will, if you'll, let me say that. And um, he, I guess, yeah, like he, just his, his brain never stopped running okay, yeah, no he.

Speaker 1:

He immediately like, as soon as bro clocked that that car was working, he's like all right, we got 60 seconds, we got a dip, we don't got that much time left. And it was time to like it was perfect. He got in that car and he was out right when shit started popping off. He had a time down.

Speaker 2:

Now a couple of things I would bring up, just because it is tornado season out in the midwest and they are getting hit with tornadoes all over the place and even where they were in this movie, in new jersey. Uh, there have been tornadoes once or twice and there have been hurricanes a few times I think 28 over the last several decades, uh. But wind doesn't typically travel toward the center of the storm, but in tornadoes and hurricanes it does so, although it's rare. Please understand that there is a time, especially if you're in an area prone to uh tornadoes and hurricanes, the wind does travel toward the center. So don't.

Speaker 1:

Tornadoes can happen anywhere, it just has to happen. You know, the right circumstances have to happen it's true, been tornadoes in like washington. There's been happen, it's true. There's been tornadoes in Washington.

Speaker 2:

There's been tornadoes in Los Angeles.

Speaker 3:

There's been tornadoes in France and whatnot but the main, it's never category fucking flat. Yeah, the main reason that Tornado Alley. Tornado Alley just has the perfect set of conditions for frequent tornadoes.

Speaker 3:

So there's nothing like the winds hitting on and it's flat, frequent tornadoes, so there's nothing like the winds hitting on, you know and it's where the it's where the cold of the arctic pushes down and the hot of the gulf pushes up, and they collide well, the winds come from the pacific, they hit the rockies, they go over the rockies, they come down cold over the warm air that's coming from the gulf and when they mix there in the center they start circling a bunch and it's just that perfect spot of, like TJ said, just nothing but flat land.

Speaker 2:

It doesn't usually go from the Pacific all the way out. Look at the air currents. They travel like rivers, they don't go straight. It hits the Rockies and goes north. It goes from the Arctic. It sweeps south in like a U-turn, goes north, it goes from the arctic. It sweeps south in like a u-turn. So when the when the warm air and the cold air collide like that, because they're they're crossing paths with each other, they rub against each other hot and cold air and they cause that friction, typically causing lightning, storms and then, in good cases, um, they cause tornadoes good yeah, I mean in ideal conditions oh so in ideal conditions they don't happen in a well ideal for the tornado um that

Speaker 2:

spot something else I would say that he was good at doing was avoiding confrontation. Right, he avoided confrontation with his ex. Then he avoided the confrontation when these things started coming out of the ground. He was smarter than I think most, in that it was let's get out of here rather than try to stand your ground and fight or try to hunker down and hide.

Speaker 1:

There was also a lot of luck on his part too, because once that absolutely ground dude. He was right there and people to his left and his right are getting freaking dusted. He ran through somebody who was just in front of him who got dusted. They're like what do you? Got on you a whole ass human being down the street.

Speaker 2:

I would have freaked out which I'm like ew, yeah, that was like kind of a big deal too is I don't think. I don't know he definitely didn't know this, but hunkering down would have been the worst decision because he had nothing for food. Yeah, remember they get.

Speaker 3:

They get to the. What's all this? It was everything in your everything, but hunkering down would have been the worst decision because he had nothing for food. Yeah, remember, they get to the. That was so funny. What's all this? It was everything in your kitchen.

Speaker 2:

It was everything you had it depends on where they're at.

Speaker 1:

He had no food there but his ex-wife and her family. They hunkered down.

Speaker 3:

They were in the freaking family's house the whole time they got to have snacks. Yeah, oh, grandparents always got the best snacks.

Speaker 1:

So I think it depends you have to.

Speaker 3:

so survival tip of the day stay stocked up Always buy a little bit of extra canned food.

Speaker 1:

when you're at the store, you know, buy something you like so you don't have to eat.

Speaker 3:

I meant the mom's house. The mom's house definitely has snacks. Oh yeah, the mom's house definitely has snacks.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, the mom's house definitely that fucking rich ass house dude. I'd be pissed off if she's like oh yeah, you gotta go to your dad's.

Speaker 2:

Fuck that wait let me bring something up here, because this was to me, this was pretty obvious and it was annoying. They get to the mom's house, they pull out all of his food. He has nothing.

Speaker 3:

He has nothing but condiments, right then he was like okay, okay, let's have some sandwiches.

Speaker 2:

He was like peanut butter, peanut butter sandwiches. She's like I'm allergic. Why do you have peanut butter if you know your daughter's allergic?

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah no, most people who have peanut allergies are deathly allergic, even friends. If your friend has an allergy, why would you keep?

Speaker 2:

this guy. It's just, it was so If Eric was allergic to peanut butter and he's like coming over.

Speaker 1:

I'm gonna keep all that shit and all the shit that was contaminated away.

Speaker 3:

He would have spread it under my pillow.

Speaker 1:

Now whatever. Yeah, I took pictures of him while he was sleeping. I'll put them in the discord Nerdy vet makes a very good point.

Speaker 2:

Moms in general have snacks.

Speaker 3:

They do.

Speaker 2:

Absolutely true. My wife always has snacks.

Speaker 1:

She did before she had kids. It's true, that's true, but they definitely had fruit roll-ups and fruit by the foot and gushers and definitely they had the cheese and the crackers with the little plastic stick in it if it's end oh, those are good if it's end of world, why are we eating pb and j's? Why are we not eating all the why did they not check the house for food? They just didn't.

Speaker 3:

That's what I'm saying. You know, the kids had to have known where the food is.

Speaker 2:

That's like, but they weren't hungry that's the right anger that I had. Right is like that I didn't, I didn't think that and articulate that, but that's the right. That's the anger that I had was like also you would know your own house but they weren't hungry.

Speaker 1:

That liquid ass. Peanut butter too, I wouldn't want that shit either. Where's the thickness? This shit is expired.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, get away from I mean the creamy peanut butter, you know, um. So we also got to see ray uh implement some things that we all know are good in almost any disaster shelter and stealth. We love talking about the zombie, which would work in the same context. Right, when you're making your move, we've always said you hunker down, you bug in for as long as you possibly can. I try to aim for 45 days. If you can go longer, go longer, and the same would account for major disasters in the area. If you're not injured and don't have to go to a hospital after a major earthquake here in the Los Angeles area, don't leave, right, you're just adding to problems on the street. But then when you have to go, when you have to make your move, you need to be quiet, you need to be stealthy because you don't want people coming after you if they're in desperate, dire straits.

Speaker 3:

You saw that with the car.

Speaker 2:

You saw that with the car Perfect example.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I really think that actually does show what I think would happen with society in a situation like this. I don't really see us all, at least initially. I don't see us all banding together. I see it kind of being like a one for all for a little bit Right, Until some sort of hope, I think. Once the first one fell, it's like okay, there's hope we can actually destroy these things somehow.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

So in this movie it's shown that the aliens use electromagnetic pulses to knock out all electricity and everything that's electrical. If you guys don't know, there's something called a Faraday bag that can prevent that from affecting your devices. So I would get one and keep a phone in there, keep it charged and, yeah, keep that in your bag if you're a little bug-out bag that you can find on nowhere, because we don't have a website.

Speaker 3:

What happens if the EMP goes off and I'm charging it? Well, no, you, just you know, then I'm screwed.

Speaker 2:

Get, good, then you put your other phone in. You have two. Well, then you put your other phone in.

Speaker 1:

You have two. Well, you put your main phone. Protect your main phone while you're charging I wonder if there's a way to there. Probably is to like stop your car.

Speaker 2:

You can uh cooked so I I've heard a couple of different stories that I would like to try these out, and there's clearly no way to to do this in the city, uh, but I would love to see if this really works. I've heard that you can use your microwave as a Faraday box or a Faraday cage Ooh, yeah, that might work, yeah. It might, you could fit your car in there.

Speaker 1:

Well, your phone, it's just like shielding, because there's fucking microwaves.

Speaker 2:

It prevents it from getting out, at least in major quantities. Maybe it would protect it from getting in major quantities. Maybe it would protect it from getting in.

Speaker 1:

Maybe someone in the chat who knows about this kind of somebody in the chat who knows how to build an emp. Can you test that for us? Thank you, don't actually this is uh, we do not condone. We are not responsible for what anybody else does. That is true.

Speaker 2:

Do you guys ever see oceans? 11 yeah is that? Wait a minute? Wait a minute. We can use a pinch it's a bomb.

Speaker 3:

I don't know it well enough to quote it.

Speaker 1:

It's a bomb better yet, but without the mayhem and death and destruction when eric was uh taken off uh to come here he hit he hit up the group chat and was like hey, I'm on my way, you know, I just got on my flight, or he's like I'm at the airport and I just start sending him fucking in, like fucking I sent him a string of arabic it said uh death to america and uh down with the bloody orange man, or something like that in arabic started.

Speaker 3:

He started with do you have the bomb? And oh, yeah, oh my god, it's like I got sent like a naughty picture.

Speaker 1:

I was just like, oh my god, didn't I say like make sure you hit the space needle or something?

Speaker 2:

yeah, so I go through. I go through security at the same airport you were with a colleague of mine who happens to be black and we walk through. I literally they walk me through the metal detector. I didn't even have to go through the scanner, they just walk me through the metal detector. I didn't even have to go through the scanner, they just walk me through the metal detector. I was like, okay, you know, hands up, we scan. You put a wand on you. Okay, all right, keep going, keep going. And then I see they pull my colleague out of the line and so there I am, standing there because I have to be the dick that I am. I was like, oh yeah, sure, go ahead, pick on the only black guy in line. Huh, that's why you have to do that. And he's just staring at me like shut up dude.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he is the most non-threatening black man I've ever seen in my life but they don't stop, alex, though, bro, no, yeah, I know why they're like oh yeah, terrorists don't have bow heads, they should have literally been like oh, there's no need to even scan, you go ahead and go right through I was dying laughing the look on his face when I said that I go oh yeah, sure, pull the only black man out of line.

Speaker 2:

We, we see what you're doing. But they did so because, anybody who doesn't know, I'm also, I'm brown, I'm a mexican, so it's uh it was jamal.

Speaker 1:

Did you hide your?

Speaker 3:

nine did you keister it? Don't check the prison pocket, that's what I was saying.

Speaker 1:

Just hey, did you hide it? Did you hide it good, I think you're fine, you hit it good, I think I think hey, fine, hey, can you hear?

Speaker 3:

me. Both times that I went through, uh, the scanner, my groin lit up what the fuck?

Speaker 1:

I don't have any piercings down there, anything the first time.

Speaker 3:

Prince albert, oh, okay, the second time, I think, was a little piece of paper that I knew was in my pocket and I was like no way that sets it off. And it did, and both times the guy's like I'm gonna have to frisk you uh I'm gonna go backside of my hands. Um, I'm gonna just go side to side and then I'm gonna go up the pant legs and then I'm gonna do the same for the behind. Um, do you want to do this in private? And I'm like, no, what am I gay?

Speaker 2:

that's funny. It's like hey, I'm like no, I need witnesses around here yeah

Speaker 3:

we're not gonna do this in private yeah, frisk me here or don't frisk me at all I don't trust you.

Speaker 2:

We're not going. We're not going somewhere alone, we're not going behind a screen, you're going to buy me dinner first, for that kind of activity.

Speaker 3:

I'm not going to your black couch with a camera.

Speaker 1:

It's like I need you to bend over and cough, please.

Speaker 3:

It's not this type of search.

Speaker 2:

That's that age-old joke, right, when you go to your proctologist, you?

Speaker 1:

know it's a bad day when you feel both hands on your shoulders while you're bottomless.

Speaker 2:

That's a 21 Pilots line. That's the joke. That's exactly the joke.

Speaker 1:

Oh, dude, I love Disarano.

Speaker 2:

It's good, oh good, I like this mead.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, that is great. We had some in a um a keg there too.

Speaker 3:

it's fucking good all ice cold and whatnot nice the thing about this meat is that like the first sip is kind of like oh, that's harsh, and then everything after that is just like juice that's cute I don't think this is hard what do you?

Speaker 1:

guys, because we are talking about a movie. What do you guys?

Speaker 3:

what would be your?

Speaker 1:

would you go and stay in that basement with that nice, non-crazy fellow?

Speaker 3:

You don't really have much of a choice. I don't think he had his daughter, so I think I don't know, Because he didn't know that that was going to be like the new grounds for the aliens, and running doesn't really seem like a great idea in that situation either aliens but and running doesn't really seem like a great idea in that situation either.

Speaker 2:

So, and you also didn't know that this guy was going to be so crazy as to start saying shit like we're going to have to rebuild society, like looking at your daughter yeah, oh yeah, no, as soon as he spoke any words to my daughter?

Speaker 3:

yeah, oh, I, I actually thought that was flowers I thought that was a great dad moment for him, where he was like here, here, you know, just cover your ears and don't listen. I'm going to have to go do something.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, I took that guy out and I mean good, dad, move, yeah. And I think you already mentioned this as he went along, he got better and better as a dad, and that was probably one of the peak moments. Yeah, I think another peak moment was when he went and tackled his son to prevent him from joining the military, although he kind of left his daughter behind Remember that other couple was going to take her away.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I mean, but in the chaos it's like you got to pick one or the other. He's trying to help both of them, he's trying to protect both of them, and I think that was the struggle he was having. Is that parenting is supposed to be a two-person thing, and he's by himself in an apocalyptic situation, trying to take care of two kids.

Speaker 2:

No, I totally get that it's just that at 17.

Speaker 1:

The son was annoying At 17.

Speaker 2:

No, and I'm sorry I don't For the reason you're saying I would not say the same thing, because you in your saying I would not say the same thing because you're annoying, just go. But I completely agree. I mean, he's 17 dude. I understand. I completely understand you don't want to let him go, but you know I have this little girl to maintain and you want to go run off and fight these things and you're so pissed off and angry all the time might help you might have to go.

Speaker 2:

You know, go ahead, go see what it's like and clearly you know we, we were all wrong, because he survived I was shocked about that.

Speaker 1:

In these situations, it's all about protecting the, the kids, you know. And uh bro, 17, figure it the fuck out, bro, because I'm gonna go save my daughter, she's fucking 10 may I remind you that it's still a child, yeah. Eh, give it a year, he won't last, it's fine. The daughter, though, you know she's about to get taken by this couple. The daughter's like screaming, like my dad's right there, you can see him. She's like we're taking you anyway.

Speaker 3:

You're ours now. I love how quickly they're in the story and then out yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

No, that shit was kind of stressing me out, though I was like leave her the fuck alone they were like we're so sorry, we just, she just seemed like she was all alone. Okay, never mind, bye no, she did not interaction there. She was like my dad's right there and they weren't even that far away.

Speaker 2:

But that ferry scene I wouldn't get on the boat.

Speaker 3:

No, I wouldn't, that's uh, like when they were all rushing to get on the boat. I'm like to do what. It's looking right at you. What do you think Once you're in the water you're safe from the laser beams that are coming from that high?

Speaker 2:

That is. I mean I don't know, I don't know what, I don't think there was much rational thought.

Speaker 3:

Except for the fact that there was military there. What was that?

Speaker 2:

There was military there. What was that? There was military there. So it was like how was there so much irrational thought, like they weren't putting a whole lot of concentration behind it to make sure that as many people were safe as possible?

Speaker 1:

it just it seemed like a 2012 situation kind of yeah but yeah, no, there had to be more fucking boats there, you know, like just regular normal people boats which was yeah, but also still, what good would that do I?

Speaker 1:

mean like pretty impressive what I feel like the aliens would go for, like the mass of people, rather than like if you you find a little dinghy and you go across like quiet, maybe cover yourself up with a blanket or something yeah, no, no lights but you know it was. You could try the stealth movement seemed to work. Yeah, because everybody else was getting freaking fried while they're swimming away quiet and they made it out, but they're also like Dude. Imagine how cold that water was.

Speaker 3:

I didn't even consider that, to be honest.

Speaker 1:

I normally do consider that, yeah, I think they ended up changing clothes, but they didn't show it. But in that situation where you find they're in like a really rural area too, where are you finding clothes at?

Speaker 3:

I definitely couldn't find clothes. Oh yeah, You'd be screwed.

Speaker 1:

I would find, like some regular ass dude's shirt and I'd be wearing it as a crop top.

Speaker 3:

I'd find some cute dresses that might be in my size. Okay, so cute dresses that might be in my size? Okay, get it, because no male would be my size. Never mind, go on, get Eric in the apocalypse with a fucking sundress on.

Speaker 1:

It's the only thing.

Speaker 3:

I can find in my size.

Speaker 1:

They're like get him. He pulls a fucking shotgun out from underneath it.

Speaker 3:

Didn't see this, bitches. That's a fucking movie right there. That is.

Speaker 2:

And then women wanting to kill him because their dress is still too big for him.

Speaker 3:

No women wanting to kill me because I look better in the dress than they do.

Speaker 1:

Hey, we were looking good in them suits we had on.

Speaker 3:

I was looking pretty good. I'm just saying you know Washington 8. I think that stands, so you are Washington 8. I think that stands, so that you are washington eight. Yeah, I think it stands, because I came back here and washington I'm yeah, no, no, you're not that is literally my self like that is exactly what it was.

Speaker 3:

I just had this conversation with a co-worker and she was like what do you think you are here? And I was like like a four, she fucking died. And she was like that was so fast I thought about it, the looks I got up. There are not the looks I've ever gotten down here. Oh yeah, I give myself.

Speaker 2:

I give myself a solid six. Like I said, when I've gone up north, I've gone up to the forum for when I've gone up north, just as far as Fresno or San Francisco, I noticed a difference. And then I've gone back east, I mean New York, manhattan has some very attractive women.

Speaker 3:

It's like no different than.

Speaker 2:

LA very similar and and New York is where I think the real models are instead of Hollywood, it's more like theater and business. I think and modeling Fashion. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, so I definitely think New York has that. La is like the Hollywood, everyone's plastic type shit and then pretty much anywhere else. That's normal I do decently.

Speaker 1:

I think I told you guys I'm like a Minnesota 8.

Speaker 3:

You're like a Minnesota 9. You're just, you're not a Minnesota 9. You're just not quite white enough.

Speaker 2:

I think I told you guys about my friend who was from Washington. He was from Washington. He came down here.

Speaker 3:

Can you wrangle a bowl, sorry?

Speaker 2:

He wanted to try the whole band.

Speaker 1:

Thing.

Speaker 2:

He wanted to try the whole band thing out here in LA and his girlfriend stayed behind. He's starting to make it. You know he's doing well. He's getting booked. People are calling him. You know they're trying to book his band. It was enjoyable to watch his band and you know girls liked him. He was a cute white guy, blonde hair, and his girlfriend comes down thinking like'm gonna go down there. I had learned from him that she was a uh miss washington runner-up and I was like, oh okay, so clearly she thinks she's hot, right, she comes down here and she's like a five max. She couldn't handle it. She ended up bailing, going back up to washington yeah, it's rough out here.

Speaker 3:

I'm not gonna lie.

Speaker 2:

She got so mad because she couldn't get any modeling jobs. She couldn't get any recognition of her attention. She walked into our restaurant where we worked at the time, and nobody. She didn't turn heads. It wasn't like some slow, slow entrance. What do they call that that? Uh, I forget her name. What's the girl's name from? Um ghost whisperer?

Speaker 3:

oh uh, jennifer love, hewitt, jennifer love, it wasn't like the jenn.

Speaker 2:

Jennifer Love Hewitt. Jennifer Love Hewitt, it wasn't like the Jennifer Love Hewitt moment where she walks in and everybody stops and turns and like nothing, nothing. This girl could not handle it, so she bails off, goes back to Washington.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, dude. So that's my thought of Washington. It's kind of me going to Washington, basically everybody in Washington.

Speaker 2:

So what you're saying is I should go to Washington bro, irresistible.

Speaker 1:

I grew up in Washington, the forearms, if you just let your beard grow out a little bit more.

Speaker 3:

I think it would be like Let the beard grow. Yeah, if you grow it out and then braid it.

Speaker 1:

You know.

Speaker 2:

Braid it. Now we're talking. If I could do that kind of shit, join a biker club, get an MS-13 tattoo.

Speaker 3:

Join a biker club Viking braid.

Speaker 2:

Get an MS-13. Wow, get deported.

Speaker 1:

Every Washington goes dream Get a bunch of random things on your hands.

Speaker 2:

that don't add up to MS-13. Oh my God Jesus, clearly photoshopped MS-13. Get sharpie, you guys.

Speaker 1:

You guys are too much this is too much, yo I'm telling you some head tats you need some head tattoos if you yo get tattoos all over your shit, but like have it in like a hairline, like fuck, like have it stop I don't, I don't do tattoos it'd be funny, though, oh you gotta get a matching. Will you survive? Tattoo with us, though, before you die?

Speaker 2:

we'll do it on your, okay, okay, wait, wait, wait, so so this is good so nerdy says tj maybe in the tacoma area, but he'd have to be douchey for Seattle. I could pull in Seattle, then you could pull in Seattle Because I guarantee you I could put the douche on.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, you could pull in Seattle. I mean, they're all cracked up so they don't know what they're doing.

Speaker 3:

I did see a lot of cracked up people, oh dude.

Speaker 2:

There was a couple times I was like damn, she almost looks pretty if she didn't look like she was in another dimension.

Speaker 1:

Hey, but look, no, teeth is a different world. Yeah, eric, got to see fucking whitesville, washington aka aberdeen average. Oh my god, can't you tell why kurt did what he did? Yeah, that shit was so depressing.

Speaker 3:

My co-worker is from washington and she is very familiar with the bars around there. She knew the boom boom room, by the way, and she was the one she also wants to take credit for planning your bachelor party and I told her I'll give her credit for that. She basically planned the bachelor party for us and told us like what, what bar, what street to hit up, and, and yeah. And so we ended up doing that. Um, why the fuck did I start talking about this? I had a point to this. We were talking about cracked out people. Uh, you meant you made a gross comment. I didn't like no teeth yeah, and then what happened?

Speaker 1:

um, I don't know, we're so like, oh, this episode, so it's to be crazy to fucking end.

Speaker 3:

This is just not even about the movie. We haven't even talked about the movie at all, and this is a good movie too. We're just not on it right now.

Speaker 2:

No, I've been talking about the movie.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, only you.

Speaker 1:

I mean I've asked a couple questions. I think I've been an okay host. I tried to get this back on topic. It didn't work.

Speaker 3:

Oh, you're the host, I am the host yeah.

Speaker 1:

I tried to get this back on topic like twice and it didn't work.

Speaker 3:

So I'm just talking Fuck it Great work Thank you it sounds sarcastic, but I do mean it for real.

Speaker 1:

Listen, we didn't record last week, so it's like you know, we just we're warming up, we're out of it.

Speaker 3:

We're getting back into it.

Speaker 1:

It's not going to seem like that for the fucking fans, because they're going to see like we already have shit recorded.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I mean, by the way, go check out our 1408 uh, just just released.

Speaker 1:

I'm talking to the chat uh, you know a mountain.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, it's good, that was a good episode. If you're watching this in the future, you should go watch 1408. That was a much better episode than this one, maybe will you survive 14 listen.

Speaker 1:

1408 is a much better movie than this one. So sorry, steven Spielberg, you fell off.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, that long ago.

Speaker 2:

So if you're going to go, look for it, it's. Will you survive 1408 evil rooms and mental resilience?

Speaker 1:

Yes, yes, that pretty much just you know. That's the gist of it.

Speaker 2:

So, okay, let me ask a question. It's about War of the Worlds. Oh shit, they were extremely technically savvy. Yeah, everybody agrees.

Speaker 3:

The aliens yeah, Sure, yeah so they planted these things underground.

Speaker 2:

Now what would we say? They had to have planted these things like miles beneath the surface right, because there's no way you build cities on top of these things, and miles beneath the surface right, because there's no way you build cities on top of these things and don't notice them under there oh yeah, I mean plumbing and your what's the deepest subways, not even like a couple.

Speaker 1:

We've been like a couple miles down a couple miles right drilled before, but like right they had to be at least like at least they had to be.

Speaker 2:

They had to be miles, being way further than two miles. So we can assume that they were very technically savvy. They, their suits, the tripods were extremely technologically advanced also the the lightning pods into their into their yep, that's so cool all cool.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's that takes real, like precision, to get that because you see how small the hole was too. That's neat right now.

Speaker 2:

Is it a plot hole, or is there something to it technologically, that when the aliens started getting sick, the tripods lost their shields?

Speaker 3:

I do think that the tripods were like, connected to their being which is that really that technically savvy?

Speaker 2:

is that really that far advanced?

Speaker 1:

well, so my theory is they didn't like really super plan for humans, you know, because it would have been like a million years ago. You know that they put the shit in before humans were like you know. So my thought is they're like, hey, this planet looks like we could, you know, conquer it, just colonize it or whatever it's you know. And they bury all the shit and then like we'll come back later. And then they come back. Oh, guess we gotta wipe out all this, make it habitable somewhat. But you know there's a lot of uh, viruses and shit that like weren't a thing I and I do.

Speaker 2:

I do like that.

Speaker 3:

like that because it's not the virus or the bacteria that did them in, it's the evolved state, because the virus has evolved with humans, that's why I like the idea that sometimes it's always like scientists uncover prehistoric bacteria preserved in ice and everybody's like whoa, whoa, you're going to start the zombie apocalypse.

Speaker 2:

And the reality is like, more likely than not, that bacteria is probably gonna die on contact right the air with, yeah, our immune.

Speaker 1:

I mean all viruses will die with contact in the air for long enough and that's why, to prepare for an alien invasion, every time I've gotten sick with corona, I cough into a bottle and hawk everything that comes out of my lungs into it, turn it into a fine mist, so I have alien pepper spray ready. You can make Molotov cocktail versions. Yeah, just gotta, no you can't Just hawk loogies, you can't, can't, catch it fire. Oh, you don't know what I'm spitting. I spit hot fire.

Speaker 3:

I spit hot fire.

Speaker 1:

I spit hot fire so I finally.

Speaker 2:

So I went on this. Uh, not a deep dive, it was a small dive. I dove in the short end of eminem super fast raps and it was uh one. I forget one of his earlier ones it was a d12 one, then it was the uh rap god and then it was godzilla. It was in in those that order, but it was when I was watching the godzilla that I was like is that fucking?

Speaker 2:

mike tyson yeah, you texted me about that I, I, but it was on my phone so it was like a really small image. I was like I can't fucking tell if that's mike tyson, dude yeah, I'm pretty sure it was for the music video.

Speaker 3:

That was so cool. Yeah, that was a good time.

Speaker 2:

So fenis asks I wonder how the aliens would deal with COVID. I wonder what bacteria or virus it was. Now, okay, so here's the thing.

Speaker 3:

I wonder if it was a mix of fucking everything.

Speaker 2:

I figure it's more of a bacteria thing that's killing them. I was going to say that Because the viruses adapt to us to kill us. Right, I was going to ask you that because viruses tend to be less lethal than bacteria.

Speaker 3:

Like bacterial pneumonia.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, bacteria kills us far more than viruses. So, here's the thing A virus. Your body reaches a temperature of 100.4. That fever will typically kill a virus and your brain is fine with that however a bacteria, your body will reach temperatures of 105 degrees plus.

Speaker 1:

It'll kill you before it'll kill the bacteria there's like clearly there's major problems, just like survive in a volcano and be I mean yeah, yeah, um, there's those, but who's saying the? Fucking aliens even have like lungs, you know right.

Speaker 3:

So, like clearly some some, I agree, even if it was like exposed to covid what is covid gonna do to it?

Speaker 1:

right, because that's like a rush?

Speaker 2:

do they even breathe? Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, that makes sense but they'll lose their taste and smell that'll be trippy here's. Here's my question to you guys. What do you think those tripods did with the humans they pulled them in?

Speaker 3:

and then they were spraying blood right I think they were spraying not only blood, but I think the guts and everything that were all over. Yeah, they were.

Speaker 1:

Um, I think they're just trying to make it more habitable, because they realized that hey I don't feel good, that is so fucked up they're decorating, they're decorating I think that is kind of what they were doing well, yeah, no, I just think they were trying to make it more habitable, you know, like their, their home planet or whatever.

Speaker 3:

They were putting up pictures and shit.

Speaker 1:

Maybe their home planet's covered in something that's similar to what our blood is composed of, like iron and shit.

Speaker 1:

I don't know but um so I think they started capturing people because they were getting desperate. I think that's what? Because those that didn't have cages on them originally and they were only they were like just burning people. And then, once they started like spraying the stuff, they were like they didn't even have the cages on the back. They were just like sucking the blood out of people. But then they started using the cages. So I think that's when they started like they're like oh, we're cooked like michael over there, dude, look his third leg's falling off. Like it's crazy.

Speaker 2:

So that's, I mean you guys, you guys kind of nailed it bipod, you kind of nailed it Become a bipod. You kind of nailed it on one point, because what I'm reading on it is they were using the human blood for red weed. They called it.

Speaker 3:

That was the plant that was growing, they called it hey, I think me and these aliens could be homies.

Speaker 1:

Fucking rip that shit. You feel like you're walking on three legs.

Speaker 2:

So it is. I got a third leg, an invasive alien plant that they were harvesting using humans, and it suggests that that was the whole purpose for them coming to earth was we could be used to grow that stuff. You might be right. I mean, how brutal would that be if they were like oh, just a weed farm. Yeah, they were gonna just I'd be so harvest this stuff using us and then take it back and smoke it, make a fortune on it.

Speaker 3:

No, this is a galactic enterprise, probably.

Speaker 1:

Dude, take this back to the Galactic Federation. We're going to get fucking so much money.

Speaker 3:

The price for red weed on the galactic black market is crazy.

Speaker 1:

Dude, it's crazy 364 galactic credits for a fucking for a spine.

Speaker 2:

Crazy Jesus.

Speaker 1:

Oh my God, and they're like dude, we're fucking pissed. There was one guy and he had a tooth in the middle of his face and he I'd be like his blood would have been kind of weird. Could have added some.

Speaker 2:

That's why they didn't use him at all. It wasn't a mistake that he didn't survive. They just joined his daughter and started walking away.

Speaker 1:

They just forgot about him. Jesus, they're like this one, we'll do, eh, whatever, flip the car, he's probably dead, nope.

Speaker 3:

But yeah, bacteria, that's what did it.

Speaker 2:

That's.

Speaker 3:

You know what's funny is that I did have a thought in the beginning of this movie where it was kind of like a joke thought, but it ended up being true Is that when the aliens first were attacking I was like, ah, but what they're not considering is that humans are resilient, and then ultimately, that is kind of what it was.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, what God said, because he played God in that one movie. Morgan Freeman I couldn't think of his name. That would be a hundred percent Couldn't think of his name. What Morgan Freeman said is that we earned our right to be here Cause we evolved to be here, you know yeah.

Speaker 3:

And they didn't bitches.

Speaker 1:

We, we which we survived.

Speaker 2:

There are some reports that say that there were humans here, variations of humans right Neanderthal and earlier forms of human that have all died off, and that we Homo sapiens are the last living species of human, which is really interesting. And if you go down this movie's account, we did earn the right to survive, because we survived not only each other, but we survived the evolution of the bacteria and the viruses, and not only that, I mean, you got to think how long ago were they fighting things like saber-toothed tigers and large the large, what do they call it Super fauna? And apparently archaeology reveals that humans were hunting those super fauna. So it wasn't like we were hiding from them, running away, like even all the way back then, man, we were trying to take them down I mean, yeah, you know how much meat's on a mammoth.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, this is one thing that distractible was talking about that. I actually do agree with mark on this. I just think that his numbers in this situation were off. He's talking about the gorilla, the 100 men versus one gorilla. So they copied us. Yeah, they really did. They copied us. Wow, for once they did us and we didn't copy them. Yep, um, but they were like 100. Definitely people would win 90. Definitely people would win 50. 9 out of 10 times people would win. I could still get behind 50. I think that's pushing it, but they were like 30. Yeah, I think 50 is pushing. I don't think that's 9 out of 10 times. I think that's like maybe 2 out of 10 times humans win because 50. I mean, we looked it up a gorilla would kill like 30 to 40 people within the first minute, so like that would be really hard.

Speaker 3:

Uh, to come back, which is like how long we have to last before he gets tired yep, yeah, and even then like he's just tired, he's still a gorilla who could just swing his arm loosely and knock someone out. Yeah, but anyways, um, they were saying 30, uh, definitely could still win. I don't think so. Then they said 12 men would still win against a gorilla, but but 10 wouldn't. And so Mark brought up this interesting idea that it's kind of like a logarithmic function. It's not necessarily like so. Like, let's say, it's 1v1. That's equal 1v2. All right, that's pushing it, but maybe 1v3. Absolutely not. 1v3 is very different than 1v2. And because it's not just like, how do you describe, describe it? It's not just like a steady progression, it's logarithmic. There's a point where it's like no, that got significantly harder now yeah, it's not linear, it's exactly exponential.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, and so it's like three verses are like four versus six is very, very different, and I he was mentioning that in like think like prehistoric times or you think like an early man hunting these things. It does make sense that six men against a saber-toothed tiger might not seem like a lot, but that saber-tooth is surrounded by six predators now that's a lot.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

That's enough to at least make it run.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's like hyenas, you know.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, it's power of numbers.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so they'll fucking chase something and just take little bites out of it till it's fucking.

Speaker 2:

It's done like coyotes lay down fucking take it yep, yeah, like coyotes.

Speaker 1:

Coyotes will just I would say 40 or 50 versus a female gorilla would be the same as 100 versus a male I thought we whittled it all the way down to like 70.

Speaker 3:

I think maybe 60 could win we said 100.

Speaker 2:

Have you looked at?

Speaker 1:

the size of like a female gorilla versus a male gorilla. I feel like 50 could take it.

Speaker 3:

Average men.

Speaker 2:

I haven't seen the size.

Speaker 3:

You would have to find 50 average men who are willing to hit a woman Right here. Buddy, Now what I said average sized TJ.

Speaker 1:

Oh my god, I can't believe you just said that nobody check on Maddie.

Speaker 2:

I could beat off at least 100 before my arms got tired what stop it.

Speaker 3:

They can't hear Josh.

Speaker 1:

Josh asked how many I know how many average men could you beat off?

Speaker 2:

I tried warning you before we went live that that was what's gonna happen. You're gonna talk so I'm looking at it and it says a.

Speaker 1:

This episode is so cut. We're back to the gorilla conversation In the timeline, that's two episodes ago.

Speaker 2:

You brought it up he brought it up 2 to 5 feet tall and weigh 150 to 250 pounds. That's about the size of an average man.

Speaker 1:

Okay so fuck it. A silverback.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, 35 silverback gorilla, yeah a male is 1500 and a female is 150. That doesn't seem right. Silverback gorilla, not just a chimp no, that's chimps, aren't gorillas chimps are apes but not gorillas. Okay, you say that like that is not something that could be confused.

Speaker 1:

All gorillas arees, but not all apes are gorillas, it's not like they're.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, dude. No way Smaller than males standing around, four to five feet tall, weighing 150 to 250 pounds. In contrast, POV, however, in contrast, male silverbacks can weigh up to 600 pounds. Oh, okay, and grow five to six feet.

Speaker 1:

How Eric feels when he was at my age. No.

Speaker 2:

I think you were talking about grip strength and all of that.

Speaker 1:

Bite strength 1,500 pounds. I'm sure it's grippy.

Speaker 3:

What, that's still crazy though what? I'm just a million feet at this point, but that's still crazy.

Speaker 2:

I thought they would have weighed more.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I definitely think maybe 30 to 40 men could take a female silverback One bottle down think like maybe like 30 to 40 men could take a female silverback one bottle down.

Speaker 1:

I could do it, only 150. It's still a gorilla, it's pure muscle, it is. It is a gorilla, and a chimp that's smaller could rip your face off. So yeah, I feel like 10 of me could do. Yeah, I do think you are still a threat, yeah 10 of me could do it, with probably three of me dying.

Speaker 3:

Okay, so how many of me? 160.

Speaker 1:

Okay, the gorilla would use you as a bat.

Speaker 3:

To hit the others. Yeah, how many of me with a prison, shank 16. I say 13. Third Wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 1:

What's the shank made out of?

Speaker 3:

Is it a?

Speaker 1:

toothbrush or is it a piece of glass or what it's a comb, comb. Ooh, prison combs aren't really the best quality.

Speaker 3:

It doesn't have to be. It's about how you use it, that's it.

Speaker 2:

You only get like two or three shanks on it, I'll drop it just to an even 15. If you all have one shank and I'm sure, a couple of them are breaking.

Speaker 3:

So yeah they're, they're gonna break off inside. They're not even gonna penetrate the skin.

Speaker 2:

No, they do, they will. The gorilla skin is gonna be very similar to ours just skin and muscle.

Speaker 1:

Just you get the right spots, they're still, I mean, just as delicate as we are have you seen like people with that one condition where the hair on like everywhere on their body just grows? Yeah, like you I am really not Eric is hairier than me.

Speaker 2:

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I feel like I took some friendly fire here.

Speaker 3:

You can't even see my hair on the camera.

Speaker 2:

That's true, you can see my sick tattoo though.

Speaker 1:

Aha, aha, aha, Anyways.

Speaker 2:

TJ will give any. Oh, Alex, do you know my new last name?

Speaker 3:

Huh, do you know my new last name? Nope, nope, they changed their name Because you can do that. You can pick your own. It's not on there.

Speaker 1:

Let me think, let me think You're not going to get it. You're never going to guess it. Watch him guess it also be an adverb. Oh, that's just.

Speaker 3:

That's not a good hint. That is appropriate.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you could use it in that way. That's not a good hint. What a blank performance Should I give?

Speaker 3:

him a hint. I think, like what a blank performance would be my best hint for that.

Speaker 1:

Oh.

Speaker 3:

What a, I think, like fancy Up is my hint Up.

Speaker 2:

Stunning Close. Fabulous, not close, oh, I like fabulous for you TJ. Fabulous.

Speaker 3:

Flamboyant TJ and Maddie Fabulous.

Speaker 2:

Up, and what a stellar. Stellar, tj Stellar. Did you know that? No, he said up. You said what a performance.

Speaker 3:

Oh yeah, that was right. I still didn't think you were going to get it.

Speaker 1:

Yep, stellar is my last name now. Wow, jackson is my middle name now. I have three middle names now.

Speaker 2:

So do you even know the song by Incubus Stellar?

Speaker 1:

No, but it could be. I've never even heard it.

Speaker 3:

Meet me in Outer. Don't want to get copyrighted.

Speaker 1:

Oh, you know what song me and Eric kept singing, because we were in Aberdeen, something in the way, just doing that.

Speaker 3:

Oh my god yeah, first of all. Oh, I remember why I brought up my co-worker now it was Aberdeen when she asked me how it went and I told her the the final details of of my story and she was like that's depressing. And I was like yeah, and so there I was, alone in a hotel bed in aberdeen washington after a wedding. It was fucking depressing, man, something in the way underneath the sheets, so it seems like bugs.

Speaker 2:

Are you still in here, or did you?

Speaker 1:

bail.

Speaker 2:

She's in mine she's maddie said come as you are, which is uh, it's an on the sign for aberdeen as you were wow, they really advertised that you are the city that made kurt cobain kill himself. Oh my god welcome oh my god crazy.

Speaker 1:

So anyways I'm curious.

Speaker 2:

I want to, all right, but we should do this off the podcast. I want to know what Bugs's thoughts are on the whole situation.

Speaker 3:

Are we restricted?

Speaker 1:

yet we're at an hour and ten, that is insane. Yeah, we're good, we're good, okay. Well, hey, who won? Hey, who won? Yay.

Speaker 3:

What an organized episode.

Speaker 1:

What's your guys' next pick for a movie?

Speaker 3:

I don't have one, eric, if you choose Avatar 2. Tj yeah, oh wow, good boy.

Speaker 2:

No.

Speaker 1:

Do you have a clicker? I can't even hear it because of the Discord fucking no, you did not. Oh, he was doing that shit to my cat. He was trying to train my cat. That shit didn't work. No, you can't train cats. It most certainly was working. He was staying off for much longer, a-holes much longer, but okay anyways that's not how training works, you don't?

Speaker 3:

he's not just suddenly. 100 trained you. We were working on on duration and he was. He went and laid down away from the bed. What did? Did I win, Eric? Are you going to?

Speaker 1:

choose Avatar 2?.

Speaker 3:

Um, no, probably no, if I'm being honest. No.

Speaker 1:

No.

Speaker 3:

But if I'm lying for the win, yes.

Speaker 1:

Well, you have to do it. If you say you're going to do it and you don't do it, I think that invalidates the win.

Speaker 3:

No, that's just well played. Get fucked, loser Okay the win.

Speaker 1:

No, that's just well played. Get fucked loser.

Speaker 3:

Okay, alex, you win. No, yeah, I'll do avatar too you're not gonna do avatar too? No, I will, I promise.

Speaker 1:

No, you're not alex, would you like to give a winner's speech?

Speaker 2:
