The Prod.cast

Hello, and welcome to the podcast, where we talk life, work, and occasionally music. My name is Switchbladesforkids. And the other half of the podcast. It's your boy, Blake Bentley. Hello. Hello. How you doing? How are the kids? What's going on? Merriam? It's a lot like we fucking talk, like, every other day. Yeah, literally every day. And then we also talked for, like, what, half an hour before the podcast? Yeah, we do it every time. We should literally just hit recorders. Well, no, we normally talk about stuff we don't actually want to we can't really say about. Yeah, that's good. Point to the Internet big dock thing. If we were to say all levels, we would just DOX the fuck out of ourselves. Everyone would know exactly who we are, where we are. They'd be able to just look at a map and be like, yeah, two big fucking right there. Time to get a Chinese spy balloon right over the top. Wait, do you actually know what happened there? I saw a video on that. Wasn't it just a weather balloon? I don't know. I heard of it. I've seen pictures of it, and it looks like someone's rigged a solar dish or solar array onto a giant balloon that was apparently three buses long. Okay, so it might have actually big might have actually been a legitimate thing. Yeah, but get this cat fucking this. Australia's foreign minister. I've seen it today on the news. Australia's foreign minister says it's not a big deal. Guess what nationality Australia's foreign minister is. Well, you better fucking believe she's Chinese. She's not Australian. No, she's Australian, but she's Chinese australian,

maybe. I don't know, man. No, I've never gone that far into making a joke about this. I'm never trying to find these therapies. I'm not taking any chances. I would rather have 5% truth exactly 95% followers home with it. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story. Dude, how you going? How have you been? How's your week? Good.

My backstory, really saw from the workout on Saturday, which was great. I am fucked from the workout on Saturday. Really? I thought you said good last night. Except my legs, but I think that's three minutes of cycling. No, well, we did dead. I don't deadly. That's the thing. And I don't do leg workouts so much anymore because of my ankle that I need to go to a doctor and talk to about for months now. Blake, you need to go. I know, and I've literally been to the doctors. All right, if this was me, what would you say if I've got a suspected broken or fractured ankle and I've been telling you about it for months? Yeah, but it doesn't hurt anymore. You would be up my ass so much, you'd be like, Go to the fucking doctor. You have free medical you know what? All of Australia has free medical voice bulk billing, baby look, actually, I found Medicare. I had to go get a health check up for my income insurance and my life insurance, all that sort of stuff. And I found a fucking good doctor and I'm going to go see him because he's lit and he's young and he had an Irish accent, and I liked the guy cool. And he tested my peers. I peed in the cup and he had to put something in it. And that's funny. I'd like to go back and see this man. Yeah. He reckons me losing 35 kilos in them, like, six months or whatever. He said that was really quick. I was like, Are you sure? Because I don't think it was that quick. Is that quick, dude? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, it's quick. All right, so break it down. Let me bust out a bug and go get that. I'm just guesstimating six months. I don't know how long it took. I think it was about six months, wasn't it? Wasn't it? If I bust out the old calculator, how many weeks in six months? That's right, six times four. Let's do that. 24 weeks, right? 24 weeks divided by 35. Yeah, divided by 35. And we'll just say you lost half a kilo every week. So it says zero point 68 kilo every week. Is that a lot? I think that's pretty good, man. All the way. Hold up. No, it's 35 divided by 24. It's not the other way around. Oh, yeah, sorry. Excuse me. Yeah, dude, you lost it. It's, like, three times that. You lost, like, one and a half kilos every week. That's not too bad. That's fucking ridiculously fast, man. Usually losing a kilo a week is fucking, like, you're pushing it. But I'm guessing there was obviously differences in, like, water weight and obviously the shock to the system of, like, probably like, oh, we're going to do some work now. Okay, cool. I'm not ready. And then it goes into crazy survival mode or whatever the fuck. Yeah, I don't really know how fat works. Neither do I. All I know is calories in, calories out. You just want to have less calories in than you have carrot going out, and you're fine. And you got to keep sort of adjusting for it as well. Thank you, Jeff Nippard, for finally putting this whole thing to rest. Oh, really? Yeah. Dude. Wait, you haven't seen that new one from Jeff? No. He basically explains that, yes, calories in, calories out, plus a whole heap of other factors that will determine how much weight loss or weight gain you can sort of have or how hard it is to lose weight and how hard it is to gain weight. He also did another video where he explained that your body will get used to losing weight. And so you can be at a 500 calorie deficit, right, and be steadily losing to a point. And it like when your body is used to, like, being 500 calories in deficit, your body starts to be like, oh, well, that's fine then. And then it starts to get really used to it. Is that what the plateau is? Well, people always talk about a weight loss plateau. Yeah, well, it's basically that. And they can be like, oh, yeah, well, I'm only eating 2000 calories. I was like, yeah, well, your body got used to eating 2000 calories, and so now you got to cut a little bit more. And the way Jeff did it, he did his cut over, like, I think it was like fucking a year, and he lost, like I think it was like 30 kilos or 20 kilos or something. It was something pretty in a year. Very, like, good, I would say, you know what I mean? But it was the fact that he did it so slowly and so progressively that he didn't notice that he was like he knew that he was losing weight, but he didn't notice in the way he was eating. He was like, Well, I want to get absolutely shredded, like a shredded Caesar salad at the end of the year. So he was just like, every I think it was every two weeks. Sometimes the body can adapt really quickly to weight, so not weight, the calorie deficit change. So I can be like the first the first day is, okay, cool, I'm 500 calories down. And then it's the next day, it's like, okay, cool. Well, I know that now I'm going to be 500 calories down, but I'm going to hold onto an extra, say, whatever, 50 calories. So really you're only in a 450 calorie deficit. I don't know how to really properly explain it. Yeah, the way he explains it's, like, it's it basically means that after a certain amount of time so you can do it for six weeks. I don't know if that's the right time frame or anything, but you stay on a 500 calorie deficit for six weeks, by the end of that six weeks, it doesn't matter that you've got a 500 calorie deficit because your body has gotten used to it and it will just assume that you're at a zero calorie deficit. Oh, that's so weird. Yeah, that's so weird. See, I have to keep adjusting it. Yeah. So I've adjusted it by doing way more cardio because I do a 30 minutes bike ride every day now. So I do somewhere between ten and 13 case, depending on how fucking hard I ride, because I think it was 13 I think I hit 13 K's the other day in 30 minutes. Maybe it was twelve. I don't know. It was like somewhere between twelve and 13 case in 30 minutes on a bike. And I was pushing it, man. I was literally doing it in, like, sets. So I would jump the resistance right up and it would literally be like, just push, push, push for, like, three minutes and then bring it down a little bit, bit of a breather, and then push, push, push for like another three minutes. And then I was like almost doing like hip training. Yeah, I was going to say hip training. Yeah, it was almost like head training. And it fucking wrecked me, man. And I did that on Friday. So before I work out, yeah, I did that and I just went absolutely fucking bonkers with it. And it was sick, though. I had a lot of energy. I had like a big breakfast. I was like, I went to gym early because I had the day off. So. Man, I love having Fridays off. Fucking something out today. It is something else. No kids. It doesn't matter if Jackie's home or not because it's no kids. I'm like, man, I just get work done. It's great. It's fucking nice. Yeah. I don't know how we obviously I started talking about weight loss at some point. Doctor man, we get derailed so easily, very quickly. And down a rabbit hole we go, oh, man. Before we know it, it's been ten minutes.

Did you say you had something to talk about? Yeah, I did. And funnily enough, it goes back to calorie deficit, weight gain. Oh, really? Yeah, because it would have been Saturday. So after we did our gym session, first Saturday of the month, every month we're going and working out. Working out. We may change the gyms too. From occasion. We might go try out different gyms. Reason we can't try out different gyms. Honestly. Yeah, exactly. I also found out base gym, me and you can't do it. I found out today, I was like, what if I just wanted to bring my mate on? He's like, is your mate in the fence? And I'm like, no. He's like, well, no, you want to bring your mate on? Restricted area. And I was just like, well, what if it was my misses? And he's like, she got a pass. I was like, well, no. And she's like, well, she's got to get a pass first. And then she can go on into the gym. I was like, but I can't get my motherfucker day pass. And he's like, this isn't a local gym, bud. I put my life on the line.

That's so funny. Yeah. No. So yeah, we'll definitely have to hit up another gym. Especially now that knowing this, and I tell you this, guys. Fucking if you go to a gym only like once a week, and you're like, oh, I don't want to pay for a weekly membership. Fucking thing of like $17 or $20, that fucking World's gym was like, hey, man, we'll give you a sweet deal, man. Sweet deal. $17 a week. And I was like, bud, we pay $20 and we come here once a month and you think we're going to pay fucking $17 a week? You're an idiot, tray andre I can't remember his name. I think it's treyondre yeah, I think that's I think it's because we're walking. Yeah, all good. No worries. Thanks, man. And then he's like, oh, we got these packs where it's like, you buy five entries for $50. You fucking mad, man. We literally started the conversation by saying, we come once a month. Can we get it cheaper or something? And he goes, well, I have this plan here. Now. There's a weekly fucking membership. It's $18 a week. And I was like, bud, we pay $20 a month to come here once. Yeah. As soon as I said, if you can make it $5 or less a week, I don't want to hear it. Yeah. And he's like, you know what? $10 per entry is now so much better than $20 per month. It's hard for us because if we're only going to go there once a month, we might as well fucking get five for $50 and be like, oh, look at that. We just saved $50. That's literally half price entry into Worlds Gym. That's right, folks. You heard it here first. I found this really funny because he was like, five for $50. He goes, or ten for 100.

Wait for it. Ten for a hundred. He said, like, ten for 80. I would have right then. And there been like, okay, I'm getting 80 then. No, it would have been like sick. Less than $10 a visit. 100%. I'll pay it upfront. Yes. Sweet. That's what, like a fucking year's worth of visits? That's fine. I'm going to hit him up. If we see him again, it's like, hey, you said ten for 80, right? No, I was like, well, you wouldn't have said ten for 150. Why would you say ten for 100 if it's five for 80? I'm 100% going to hit him with it. Don't fucking lie to me, all right? Don't you fucking lie to me, Tray Andre. You know what? We'll go to my gym. Yeah, that's right. Start to walk out. Oh, wait,

customers.

Is that what you wanted to talk about? No,

right after the gym, after, we berated Tray Andre for trying to fucking make five for 50 sound different than ten for 100.

Yeah, exactly. Why? What's the point? After that, you know, after we had breck and shit, I went home and I was like, okay, cool. We're going to have to do some I want to do some meal prep. And I looked up on YouTube. I was like, I just talked to meal prep. And I wanted just to find some things. It's all like calorie deficit shit. Everyone loves a good 500 calorie meal or a 400 calorie meal sort of shit. And it's just like and then you look at it and you're like, okay, cool. This is chicken, rice, and veg. Or sometimes I do like a stir fry or fucking whatever. Really? I was like, that's cool. I don't really care about that. I want, like some thick bulking sort of fucking meals, right? Some thick cock. The same guy that offered me buffalo chicken and rice, which is absolutely fucking delicious at 600 calories, also offered me a thing called Big Boy Chili. Yes. Big Boy chili. And it's 1000 calories sorry. Much for a meal prep. That's ridiculous. And get this. Get this is another like, I tell you what, I fucking hate these stories, but it leads to, like, a good thing that I think is information that everyone should know. What kind of stories? I fucking hate logistic stories. Where you go somewhere, you get something, you come back, and it's like, that's the story. Like, who gives a fuck? Who cares? Went somewhere or you got stuck in traffic. Oh, who gives a fuck? Who cares? Who fucking cares? Okay? Dude, it's it's rolled me up for so long. There's there's people that will just be like, oh, man, I was stuck in traffic for, like, fucking 30 minutes this morning, buddy. I get on this cent. Anyway, I go to Costco, and what I see is $10 a kilo mince. Oh, dude. Hell yeah, right? Especially when fucking Coles and Woolies are trying to shaft you with, like, $13 for half a kilo. How about you suck me off? Okay? How about you suck me off the next station? Yeah, exactly. So I grab my mince, I fucking grab this. It says premium mince. So you know that it's like fucking 33 star, 30 70 fucking mints. You know what I mean? Probably three star or something. Yeah, exactly. But you know what? That's great because I need more fats. Fats equals big calories, so it's that $10 a kilo, right? I fucking get I think it was, like, just a little bit of rice and some veggies and chilli. That plus, like, a heap of spices in there all up each meal, which I don't even know how to evenly divide this because I put in, like, five it was ten meals, but I used two kilos of mince. It was like dude, it was actually fucking huge. In the biggest pot that I have, it was right at the fucking top. And I was, like, carefully scooping this thing around, trying to mix. Only you have, like, a giant pot that you cook hot dogs in? Yeah. Wait, hold up. You mean why would you cook hot dogs in there? What, like the red wieners? Yeah. You put them in hot water. I never actually you know what? I don't cook hot dogs at home. I cook them at work. On a grill? No, well, at work, we have these, like, big kettles stand up kettles that are, like, ten liters. Cook a hot dog in a kettle. It's called a kettle, but it's like a big silver cylinder that you just turn it on and it's like it's a it's a big boiler. It's got its own it's called a kettle because there's already an element in it. You know what I mean, I don't know if I agree with this. It heats up at the bottom. It's a big silver cylinder. No, because your market, you go, weiner Kettle, continue with your story. It was right to the top, dude. Yeah, it's right to the top. It's like half a kilo of potatoes, half a kilo of onion. There was like, a quarter kilo fucking capsicums in there. Heaps of spices. It's so fucking good. It made ten meals. And get this, the recipe even came with this little, like, cornbread muffin. That's 200 calories. So 800 calories for the chili, which, my God, it is fucking delicious. I add the cheese on top of the already frozen meal. It's not already frozen. So you freeze it, you open it up, you sprinkle cheese on it, put it in the microwave. No, when we cooked it and we served it up, we let it cool down for a little bit, then we chuck cheese on it, and then we close up the lid and put them in the freezer. And then when we heat them, the cheese melts in the center. You just go and it's all this cheesy chili mess. It's great. The cornbread muffin thingy, I never thought, like, you know, when you're here, you're going to eat your cornbread. Man, I am going to eat that cornbread. I am going to eat my goddamn cornbread. It's delicious. And the cornbread was the easiest thing out of all of it. It took, like, ten minutes. All up? All up. Preparation, cooking, ten minutes. Cornbread. Delicious cornbread. It was, in fact, a little bit overcooked burnt, a little bit crispy. But the reason why I'm saying this is there's a guy on the Internet, on YouTube, he's got a website called the Meal Prep Manual. He's got hundreds of free fucking recipes. I'm looking at the recipe index right now. Jalapeno cheddar broccoli bites. I know that when you say broccoli in there as well, dude, it's jalapeno and cheddar jalapeno poppers made with broccoli. I'm damn. Chili lemon rice balls honey sriracha rice bowl hidden vegetable butter chicken you know what I mean? It looks like hold on. If I look in this butter chicken, it says it's 577 calories. Takes 20 minutes to prep, 45 minutes to cook. 51 grams of carbs, 41 grams of protein, 23 grams of fat. That's pretty that they're pretty nice macros. Yeah, that is nice macros. And it makes five meals. Five meals. I don't think I'm getting enough carbs at the moment, honestly. Well, I get a decent amount of carbs all my breakfast, but I don't have too much carbs after breakfast because I have a piece of toast, I'll have two pieces of bacon and three eggs. That's breakfast. Lunch is usually if I have my turkey salad sandwich, I get some cards from the sandwich. But I had a turkey salad today. There was potato salad, so there was potato, there was carbs, and then dinner is usually a chicken salad. So I don't really have many carbs with dinner. I would say that maybe the reason why the fat loss has been or the weight loss, I should say, has been so dramatic is because you've cut out so many calves. Like, I'm guessing your sugar intake is incredibly low oh, yeah. And make like I barely have I have fuck all sugar now. Yeah. And actually, so do I. Realize this today I was starting to get that weird headache from not having because I'll usually have, like, a random sweeping. Like, I usually have, like, cordial or something like that. All right. I have loose sugar just because calories but I'm the opposite. All calories out, kind of as losing calories as possible because I'm trying to lose this belly. Can I just say, recent study found that, you know, asparamy or a spotame, I don't know, it's pronounced fennel elephrine, which is the other Fenil. Allofriend fennelophrin. The other fake sugar wagon.

What's that one spirulina all these artificial artificial sweeteners. Yeah, any sort of fake sweetener sort of thing that isn't sugar. The body still treats it as sugar. Did you know? Really? It still stores it or attempts to store it, and when it can't, it fucks with your endocrine system somehow. So ideally, still not drinking sugar free drinks. Yeah. So you can have, like, the Coke Zeros. They're still sweet, all that sweetener. Your body still goes, oh, cool. You've just ingested sugar. It still thinks it's like a sugar because there'd still have to be some sort of sucrose, glucose, who knows whatever's in it. You know what I mean? Yeah. So you're not having the calorie. So the calorie part is still legit, but your body still treats it like sugar. So it still does the whole process of trying to break it down, store it, or do all that sort of stuff, which technically takes away from your body being able to either rest or gain. Yes. So you're killing your gains by drinking a sugar free drink. 100%. Yeah, absolutely. Something else. Yeah, right. I still think it's better than having sugar because if your body is still treating it like sugar, but it's not sugar, it's still better than having the sugar. Right. Study shows about the same.

I'll try and find it because it was in another random I don't think it was a Jeff Nippard video, but it was like another dude that does all this sugar free energy drinks. All of that stuff. Yeah, it's all garbage. God, that sucks. Yeah, I know. I love them. Yeah, so do I. Oh, now I need to stop drinking them. Well, that's the thing. It's like no, Zach, you don't understand. Because you got to think of there's like an offset, right? Especially with an energy drink, right. If you utilize the energy from an energy drink, and I'd say you utilize it however the fuck you can, your calories out will be over the calories in. All right, I'm going back to energy drinks. Sugar free energy drinks are back on the menu I've ever had. You know what? I'm happy to treat it like it's sugar and just go with the same that it always has been. Today I had an energy drink at the gym while riding, like, while riding my pushy. And then I went and smashed out a chess session. I did chest and arms. The only thing you should be doing on Monday. That was my plan today until I realized, oh, yeah, we got to record that's. Monday, everyone. Hello. Yeah, it's Monday, not Sunday. We decided Sunday sucks, and Monday set up some Sundays. All right, I guess, dude, this dude does protein waffles as well. I've made protein pancakes. Oh, dude, I had Canadian pancakes the other day. And Jackie cooked some pike lips with the kids and was like, hey, there's some leftover. I was like, I don't want sweet. I want savory. So I cooked eggs and bacon and just slapped it on top. Yeah. And ate it, and it was fucking delicious, man. Oh, brother. These are protein pumpkin muffins. Looking at the food, I can't I love it so much. I have banana cinnamon, baked oatmeal. What baked oatmeal? I really want to do after having the shooter from Cafe 69 60, man, do I want oats every day now? Double chocolate brownie, baked oatmeal. Oats. You're like a bit of dark chocolate in it, too? That would be fucking delicious. Yeah, a little bit of spring. You know how you got those, like, microplanes that you do, like, garlic on? You just do microplanes. Like a little bit of dark chocolate over the top of that. That's fantastic. Right now, the whole reason I was going down the track of the meal prep sort of stuff was to basically give this guy a shout out because obviously he's doing pretty well off for himself, and he's got, like, a subscription service so that he doesn't need more help. He doesn't need more help. But this is a thing of, like, I think everyone should be able to at least I tell you this right now. I did the calculations. I did the math, Blake. I did the math on how much money each meal was actually costing me. Okay? If I get all of these things and I cut them all up and I turn them into one meal the chili. The chili, you would think 1000 calories should be the most expensive, right? It cost me $2.67 per meal, man. That's pretty good. That's including the cornbread and the actual chili itself. So 1000 calories, and it cost me $2.67. The chicken, because it's like, chicken thighs and rice and shit like that, turned out to be just a little bit more $2.73. I think it was $2.72 per meal. Per meal. If you're out there and you're going to the gut truck every day and spending $16 on a dagwood dog or a couple of dim sims and a Dare Ice coffee, you can fuck off. All right, save it. Save all that up. Save up. Was it three days of going to the Gut Truck and then just do some meal prep on the weekend? As I said, I think it took me like 2 hours all up to do 20 meals, which if I you know, the way I'm eating, I'm doing two meals a day, so I just take one of each. That's fucking ten days worth of meals. That's two weeks worth of meals. I could literally meal prep and leave it at home. I live so close to home that I could come home, heat up my meal, put it in the car, drive to gym. It would have cooled down enough for me to eat it at gym. And then I could work out because I do 30 minutes of cardio. So that's enough time for it to settle and then also to actually start getting a bit of return from that investment of food. Yeah, to then start smashing out some weights. It's pretty good. That's not a bad idea. I might look at doing some meal prep again. It's been a while since I've done meal prep, but I'm also looking at trying to save money. I'm very conscious of not wasting money now. Oh, I'm sending you this link. You're going to be like, oh my God. You're telling me I can spend one dollars 50 and make 50 meals or something like that? Saving money to win money. Oh my God. Blake. I want to win money every day. You know what? I work for the government, and I feel like I'm winning every day. When I work for the government, I work for a non for profit, and I feel like I also just get given money sometimes. I feel like winning gift cards. Would you also like to be gifted money? I want to be given free money. What do you love to be? How does $100 sound? Yes. Give it to me now. Would you like $100? Well, Zack, you'll have to enter. What do I have to do? Like, you'll have to enter our giveaway. Okay, what do I have to do? How do I enter this giveaway? Guys, this is a thinly veiled attempt to fucking get you to understand what's going on. Okay, we're acting. This is acting. Zach, would you like to win $100? I'd love to win $100. How do I do it?

We need their name. You're like, give me your email address. Email address. We need the name too. Full name. You can just be like, M. Smith. You know what I mean? That'll work, right? No. Put your full name in there. We're the only ones who see it. Yeah. You don't know who we are? I wouldn't do that. I'm a very suspicious person. I don't trust myself with my own name. I don't trust the government. Give away $100. Stop. Yeah. Weird. So give us your email address.

I need your this one email address I need and I'm going to get it one way or another. Make sure I get that specific email address. Email address. And then I want to give you $100 if you win because it's a giveaway. It is a prize giveaway for the hundredth episode of the broadcast. That's one dollars per episode, Blake. Did you know that? Yeah, that's exactly why we that's why we did it. And also give away $1,000 to give away I don't have a $1,000 for myself, but we definitely have $50 spare reach in about two months time.

What would you do with the what would you do with $100, Blake, if you were just to get $100? Run out. Boom. I'd probably just invest it. I'm not know why. Well, ask me what I would do is what would you do with $100? I'd probably buy something music related. Is it a CD? Speaking of music, Blake, no, I wouldn't buy a CD. I'd probably also

I walked right into it. Let's go, man. You don't win something like just as you go, man. That happened. Yeah. Yeah, that happened. You cast your brother. Yeah, I've given blasters soon. These glasses are also fucked. We listened to Trash Boost Fest. You know what? Did you give it another go? Yeah, I did. I didn't I gave it two goes and both guys were I didn't even notice. I didn't even notice it playing. Wow. Yeah. What? Have you completely turned around on it? No. God, no. I listened to this today specifically because I knew that we were going to record today, so I was like, I'm going to get it fresh in my head. Oh, I didn't even do that. My God. Did I not need it? We listen to Porter Robinson's. Nurture. Yeah, nurture. Boring as hell. Nurture. These nuts really slow. You know what the thing is, though? All of the elements that he uses sound really cool. Yeah. Like, the instrument choices that he made and the actual choices of the ambient sound and the drums and the vocals altogether make what should come together when you got like, really good sample selection, really good instrument selection, really good effects choices that you've made, and automation. You know what I mean? When you go, I've got all of these really cool ideas and I've shoved them all together, and then all you do is put people to fucking sleep for an hour. Oh, dude, it was boring as hell. It was so boring. You know what? He does have a really good handle on using white noise. Yeah. Look, he uses white noise for like every track. Every track, white noise. And you know what white noise does to my kids? Puts him to sleep. You know what it does to me? Puts me to sleep. I listen to white noise to go to sleep because I have horrible tinitis. But you know what? Every day, all I hear right now,

it is like a really high pitched white noise. It's really strange. I can hear white tonight. That sucks. I'm so sorry for you. No, it's fine. The army is going to give me like 50. The army is giving me money. It's okay. It probably doesn't help that I also listen to music pretty loud when I'm driving with the window down everywhere. So I'm listening to Cart. Anyway, go into it. Anything's more exciting? Logistics is more exciting than this album. Okay, look, I will say this. If you were to listen to this album and do nothing else, you will fall asleep. You will fall asleep. That's great. If you want to go down sleep. Yeah, exactly. I think I don't know what this album was supposed to convey. Neither do I was, like, listening to it and I'm like, there's some tracks. There's some tracks that are like yeah, it's got like a that's cool. But it sounded like everything was just so soft. Everything was really strangely distorted. But when I said, he knows how to use a lot of white noise with everything, it was like the kicks, the snares high hats, fucking any sort of instrument was just sort of coated in white noise. So when there was a kick, it would be this long kick, but it would be really crunchy. So it always seemed like it was really distorted and which when I listened to really distorted hard hitting kicks, you think of like trap or dubstep or fucking rhythm sort of stuff, you know what I mean? Those big, like punch and kicks and some like hip hop, like the hard hitting hip hop stuff. But for this soft kicks with white noise and distortion was like it was just being like bit crushed in a way and it just sounded weak.

You know what this is? Being hit in the face with a silk pillow by a fucking kid. That is like dumb smothered by an anti smother pillow. Yeah, it's like the worst thing. I still breathe. Yeah. I can sit here comfortably for a while. Yeah. I'll probably fall asleep. I would fall asleep from this anti smother pillar because the higher carbon dioxide rates I'm not going to die, but I'll probably fall asleep. You know what? I don't want to go on and on about this album because I feel like if there's anyone out there that actually listened to it's already put in your sleep. If there was anyone out there that was actually listening to this album and thought, why the hell did we do that? We don't know, man. We thought we were doing the right thing. Porter Robinson is usually pretty fucking good. You know what's good, though, is we are actually, before we move on, what's your rating, Blake? I know, it's a meth out of five. Yeah, it's a mess. It's a fucking ten. I'd rather have sleep apnea than listen to it again. I'd rather not be able to breathe and choke out myself in my sleep. I'd rather stop breathing for like a minute, 40 seconds and then wake up in the middle of life gasping for air.

Yeah, that's literally what I do. That's what I used to do. I'm never going to listen to this album again. And when you said we should have fucking listened to you, when you said, let's just listen to Worlds. Because you know what I did straight after listening to Nurture put on Worlds. And I was like, how does he make such a fucking banger of an album like Spitfire and Worlds? And then he's like, you know, I'd be cool if I just did the dumbest fucking album of my life. Fuck you. Is there any hits off of Nurture? There's not, right? Not really. Nothing in his top song. I think it's the chick singing. There's one with I don't even know her name, some chick singing and it's like a bit of what do you call it? What's that? Wave. Future Bounce. Future wave sort of thing. Sort of like that. Real Arpeggiated sort of strings getting bored to tears, listening to exactly. Because it is boring. Yeah, it's boring. And you know what? As much of a danger as it is, it's not it's fucking great just to give it a number. It's five. Not bad. It's music. It's music. It's boring. It's music. That's exactly it. It's not bad. It's not bad. It's just boring. Yeah, this is something. You know what this is? Have you ever had iced tea from Mossberger? Oh, wow. Probably, yeah. You know what it is? I've been to Mossberg in a thousand fucking years. It's fucking it's just liquid that you put in your mouth. Gross. It sustains you. It's not good. It's not bad. It'll sustain you, though. Yeah. Wait, it'll give you some calories and you'll quench a little bit of thirst. Yeah, that's it. It's fucking horrible. Yeah. Can we stop talking about this horrible, boring? Move on, Blake. Thank God. Move on. Christ. Now, after leaving the gym on Saturday, you try to hit me up and you were like, we need to listen to this specific band that has one specific song. It's definitely by the specific band that I am saying but we're going to listen to. I really like that song. I really like that song. So the song we're going to start off, I want to stop saying this specific band and this specific song, you thought system of a down had a song called Thoughts or Thoughtless thoughtless. Thoughts. Thought. Thoughtless, but it's by Corn we're going to listen to a System of a down album. And then next week we're going to listen to a Corn album. Yes. And then the week after that, because we've played this out, we're listening to Lil Wayne. Oh, yes, right. We're listening to a little Wayne album. Got to be sick. So little wheezy. Yeah, a little wheezy. It's funny, I got mixed up. Lil Wayne was Lil John so much just like me with corden's system. Apparently. Yeah. Because I think when I said Lil Wayne, the first thing I did was yeah, that's little John. That is Little John. Yeah. So big dumb. Lil Wayne don't eat sushi. I didn't know that. And he's not lying. I don't know what you're referencing, but referencing lyrics from Lil Wayne, that's all. Wouldn't know. I've never listened to lyrics. His lyrics, literally, I don't eat sushi. I'm not playing line. Something like that. Am I going to like this album? First of all, we got to get there because the first I don't know, we didn't like Port Robinson out of all of these. We are going to listen to steal this album. Oh, cool. By System. I couldn't remember which one it was. I just made it up on the spot. A few albums. Yeah. I think we were looking at like Hypnotize or mesmeriz or something like that. And I was like, if we cut out both of them and we go to steal this album, which was, I think, after both of them or before? I think it was just before. I love them. I love this album. It's a good album. I like system. Yeah. Bubble Sewed. Sowed, yeah, so bad. So, yeah, this week album of the in the Album Club album of the week, guys, everyone listening. We're going to be listening to System of Downs. Steal this album and deal with it. All right. Because next week we're going to listen to Corn and whatever album has thoughtless on it. Do you know what album is? I think it was some anniversary. I don't know, man. Maybe we won't I will listen to their best album because we're not going to listen to another Corn album. Probably we'll just go for their best album. I think we're more likely to listen to another System album than we are another Corn album. I didn't really listen to much Corn. I just like that one song. It's like thoughtless. It's always in my head. It's a song that lives in my head rent free. You know when people say, what song lives in your head rent free? It's Thoughtless. And it's funny enough because it's called thoughtless. It is always in my head. Always. Every single day. Ironic coin. I know. You're telling me. Literally, I just be sitting there like, fucking song every day. It's something to do with the drums. And it's just a very what's the word? Really nice. It's just a really nice satisfying is the word. It's a satisfying just little intro thing into the drums, which then just hit really hard. It's really nice. Can I just say, we're derailing. That's all we do quickly. Our entire podcast is us derailing. That's what the people come here for. That's a bucket point. Yeah. Just like, I bet you they play bingo of, like, how many art they've derailed seven times. That's a fucking bingo. They've gone down another little rabbit hole, they've said. Logistic story nightmares. Well, just to go down another rabbit hole. How many raw packets? How many packets of sugar do you get? The raw packet, like the packets of sugar at your work? Yeah. 100%, because I work in aged care. Do you use them in your coffee? You don't push sugar in your coffee anymore, do you? No, because I found out an even better no, I was like because I've got, like, these ones as well. I've got heaps of them, but I've got, like a bag of them at work because no one brings in sugar. There's no, like a jar of sugar at work. So I've got these packets. I just found a heap of packets in the transport cell. This is the thing in army, when you're told you're going to go and learn how to drive a car, you get put on a course, right? And you get paneled on course with a whole heap of other people that also need to learn how to drive whatever vehicle it is. So transport cell says, okay, cool, we're going to have ten people, right? We also need to figure out where we're going, which is probably going to be like, we need to go to some area and drive around that area. We'll still figure out food. Okay, so we'll get them. Okay, cool. Well, let's bring your own lunch. Or we'll get meals provided by the mess. Then it's well, they also need, like, coffee, tea and sugar and milk can chill out that, right? We'll just hit the mess up. The transport cell. I know this for a fact. Transport cell gets boxes of individual sugar packets, right? Boxes and individual coffee packets and tea. And they'll get those, like, little milks sometimes, but more than likely they'll get, like, fresh two liters of milk, right? So I went in and I was just like, give me a whole box of these individual of interest sugars. And I was like, you know what? I want to get like, little ziploc bags and just chuck a couple in there, zip it up, and then I can just take that to work and that'll be my sugar for fucking a month, you know what I mean? Because I put in two sugars per coffee and I'll probably have, like, two coffees a day. So I have whatever that is. I think what a teaspoon of fucking sugar is 16 calories, right? So it's great. Is that all? Yeah. Remember we looked this up one day, so yeah, I now have a whole big stash of these singular sugars. I felt like a real sneaky thief, man. I was like, yes. I'm finally getting it back from the government. I'm going to take this box of sugar. The transport whoa. Came in and he's like, Are you getting some sugar? And then just, like, walked off. He probably has boxes of sugar and coffee and tea at home. He's just like, oh, well, this course didn't like that's. The thing is, they have to get it. Every course. They have to get their allotment their entitlement of coffee, tea and sugar. And if it doesn't get used, too bad. The next time a course gets run, they have to get it again. Otherwise they eventually will lose their entitlement to coffee, tea and sugar. Oh, yeah. You need to spend it. Otherwise you don't get it. That's it. So you're telling me this long winded story will tell me that you stole sugar from the government? I stole box of individual sugars. Wow. And it doesn't stop there. I now have started stealing everything from the government. Like time theft.

I hope everyone realizes this is satire. But I tell you, this is all satirical. This is all a joke. But there's boxes of batteries. Double a batteries. Okay. They come in 40 packs. They're about this big, right? Maybe. I guess you've got a few of them. No, that's a joke. I don't know. I didn't take, like, four boxes from

it's a funny thing to say. What a funny joke. I think we're done here. Panasonic double S trying to get in the door. I think we're done. All right, cut it off. Let's end the pod here. Yeah.
