SPEAKER_01

Hey everyone, before we get into today's episode, we just wanted to let you guys know that we will be back on our normal uh upload schedule. We do know that we missed last week's upload. Ryu was in the middle of moving. I was in the middle of getting off of Anthrocon as well as also looking for a new job. Things have just been a little hectic with life lately, but we are getting back onto normal schedule as well as our normal Tuesdays. We also know that there were some Wednesday uploads as well. So moving forward, do expect our schedule to get back to normal.

SPEAKER_00

I'm struggling a little here. Not kidding.

SPEAKER_01

Why? Why are you struggling?

SPEAKER_00

Because I don't like you. I love you. Oh, I love you too. You have a phobic salamander. So welcome back to the What Are We Infrared Podcast. My name is Ryu, and this is our podcast where we talk about anything relating to the furry fandom. My buddy Adobe and I take turns each episode talking about fandom-related topics. Or not fandom-related topics. Um speaking of Adobe. Hey.

SPEAKER_01

Hi.

SPEAKER_00

How you doing? Hey.

SPEAKER_01

This is post-episode post-Anthrocon, so I'm gonna hope that that went really great, is my hope. I don't know if it did, but I'm gonna hope it did, because it probably went. I bet it was great. And I probably drank so much alcohol.

SPEAKER_00

Probably so much. I can't wait to hear all about your anthrocon experiences.

SPEAKER_01

This this is pre-Anthrocon, but I'm assuming that we're doing morning malort shots. So post-Anthrocon, this episode coming out, I'm assuming we did morning malort shots. Have you ever had Malort? I don't know what that is. It is the liquor to drink. It is the alcohol. And when I say by that, it tastes like bitter cigarette butt water. Uh it is a joke. It is advertised as a joke, and it is so fun to share with people. If you're if you're with like a tipsy guy and you're like, hey, you want to have a shot, man? They're gonna agree. And I know I do. Just to make them throw up. Uh it makes me throw up. Yeah, I've thrown off off Malort. I've had a half I've had half a cup of uh half of a red solo cup filled with Malort that I was at a I was at a furry party a little while ago, and this is not recent. But when I was there, I was very tipsy, and I brought the Melort bottle. He poured me half a red solo cup of it, and I drank most of it. I think I went to go puke, and I'm pretty sure I recame back.

SPEAKER_00

That's disgusting. Here, drink this drink that's advertised to just make you vomit and nothing else. You get no good. You get nothing out of it.

SPEAKER_01

Nothing compares to the flavor of Melort. Just it is cigar. Like if I left an ashtray with like half-smoked cigarettes out in the rain and drank that water the next day, just imagine it a little more bitter, and that's what that is. Like, I'm not I'm not even kidding. It is not good. But anyway, hopefully I had some morning malort shots. How are you?

SPEAKER_00

I'm okay, buddy. I'm having a good day. Aww, I like when you have good dice. Not but not much going on, but I'm here. You know?

SPEAKER_01

Speaking of being here, can I go get a beer?

SPEAKER_00

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I'll go get a beer. I got new beer. I'll do a beer review.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. I'll do a review on my Kool-Aid my grape Kool-Aid Jammer. Artificially flavored drink. Um it's a pouch, like a Capri Sun pouch. Um, they're pretty yummy. And this is my second one.

SPEAKER_03

That was good.

SPEAKER_00

I'm gonna go throw this away. And he's gonna come back and say, Where's Rhea? And I'm not gonna be here. The ultimate prank.

SPEAKER_01

I keep my beers downstairs so I don't drink too many. Anyway, I brought back my beer, Labot Blue Light Lime. And let me tell you, this shit's my new fucking like cocaine, man. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_00

It's good.

SPEAKER_01

That's fair. It's very limey and like a good lime flavor. It's hard, it's hard to do lime wrong, but I also like my light beers because I feel like I'm not gonna gain 40 pounds off a off of a well, this is a 30 pack, but uh, it's really good. Jesus. 12 ounce cans, though. 12 ounce can. It's very good. I really, really like it. Um, what were we talking about? I went to go get a beer. What were we doing before this? We were talking about leisurely stuff. We were gonna fuck, probably. Um create only fans account.

SPEAKER_00

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01

We should create a new calendar. Remember how Mark Plyer did a new calendar?

SPEAKER_00

Check the link below. We'll see your link.

SPEAKER_01

It just takes you to a Rickroll.

SPEAKER_00

Or an actual OnlyFans.

SPEAKER_01

Just not ours. It's like it's like a fan mail that we get. It's like a it's like a fan mail. It's just their OnlyFans. Oh my god. I mean, I'd promote, well, I don't know. Oh my god. Ryu, in the past week, what are three things that stood out to you and made you smile? They can be small. They can't involve a Melda, and they can't involve me.

SPEAKER_00

Things about to I quit my job. Oh. Um surprise.

SPEAKER_01

Surprise sounds. Gasp. Adobe had gasp sounds. You're definitely not cram editing this one either.

SPEAKER_00

I haven't really been smiling a lot lately. I've just been a little sad. And that's okay. Because everything's gonna be alright.

SPEAKER_01

Ask me what are we in for? This is a good transition. What are we in for? We're in for I don't know. I I was re- I had a horrible week still. This same week we're recording the last one. Uh, so I don't have a topic, but now I do. We're gonna cheer you up in some way. I don't know how. Oh yeah, no, so I I just I don't have a topic. I I don't. There's a couple things we could have talked about, but right now they're a little too generic and flesh them out enough. So I wanted this is the us episode. This is out we uh this is our episode. This episode, we'll go in whatever. We want to do anything we want, anything we want, as long as we're not like 280 HP.

SPEAKER_00

What if we just I think there needs to be some structure chat with our audience? What if what if we have the audience asked for?

SPEAKER_01

Audience anarchy. Oh, that's wait, that's a game on that's a game on uh Via chat.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, we should play audience anarchy, bro.

SPEAKER_01

If I can get my headset to work, but anyway, uh this is the episode. If the audience, anyone who's watching, by the way, we have a Discord down below. Link down below if anyone wants to join the Discord is where you guys can see all the giveaways and the game nights that we do and all the cool stuff. We play friendslop too. I've been starting those friendslops up. That's really fun. Come join Discord, it's free. Just come hang out. I'm gonna play friendslop with y'all. But yeah, if you guys want to just see what's up, come join Discord. Because if audience has any questions like we're doing right now, we'll just answer them and kind of go from there.

SPEAKER_02

So, audience, I'm poking you guys, do your homework by the phone.

SPEAKER_01

Uh, but no, it's just the upside episode. Uh uh This is the usual episode.

SPEAKER_00

The coffee is hidden.

SPEAKER_01

Um yeah, no, we're just gonna talk about whatever we want to talk about. And I think as long as we're not too ADHD, it'll go perfectly fine. Okay. So let's we're gonna do a little deep dive into your brain. So what makes it I'm not gonna I'm not gonna make it a therapy session. So why'd you if you want to talk about though, why'd you uh quit your job?

SPEAKER_00

Dude, I've I I I can't get behind the workflow of it. It's a great job, and I love the people I was working with, and I'm so grateful for the opportunity that I got to work there, and I learned a lot, but it's just it was the kind of sitting around waiting to do things that kind of deterred me and didn't really make me feel motivated in any in like a way, if that makes sense. And like sure, I would be doing like busy work, like laundry and cleaning and all these little things like checking inventory and whatever. But I mean I don't know, I just don't think it was for me anymore. So um I applied to a warehouse job and we'll see how that goes.

SPEAKER_01

We can get into the warehouse shop because I I have uh I have some experience in the warehouse, but did you have like did you have good coworkers? Because that's one thing I don't have at my job is I don't get to have that coworker interaction.

SPEAKER_00

I had really good coworkers. I I told I told one of my my lead co-workers, then she she was in a lead position. I was like, hey, yeah, unfortunately I'm not coming back. Um it's I'm just kind of struggling mentally, and uh I don't think working here is like really good for me in this time. And she was like, Yeah, no, I understand that, but don't act like we're gonna not talk to you. We're still gonna poke you and ask you to hang out. So I thought that was really sweet and I really enjoy uh or I look forward to seeing them in the future. Damn.

SPEAKER_01

Good. Damn, good. Um you said warehouse job. So I've I've also worked in a warehouse. What uh did you uh apply for? What kind of warehouse job are you looking at?

SPEAKER_00

So this company makes telecommunication products and they like I I don't know, I guess the warehouse is not you gonna spy on me. I'm gonna s hmm.

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_00

Don't be clip that my other laugh Yeah. Um no, but they sell telecommunication products. Um I haven't really delved too far deep into like what they do on their website, but I just know that they sell like phone products and like or or like fiber wire or fiber fiber cable fiber fiber optic cable?

SPEAKER_01

Fiber optic cables, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, yeah, I think they sell fiber optic cables to like different like ATT and Verizon and stuff like that. Okay. So but yeah. Sweet warehouse, warehouse dirk. Potentially, possibly.

SPEAKER_01

I've done uh picking. I've been a a picker for Aldi's. Um we used to use uh tuggers, is what we used, and we would put put a little pallet, it's like a big anyone who doesn't know what a tugger is, it's um a big rideable pallet jack, pretty much. Um we would just pick items, we'd get orders on our headsets, we'd pick items based off the orders and build pallets. I don't know, anywhere from like three feet to five feet high. Five feet was really pushing it though. It's maybe like two to four feet high. Uh wrap them in the good old plastic wrappy and get the and though, and then those get sent off to the trucks. We did those. I'm not gonna lie. I kind of miss it quite a bit because it was um that sounds chill.

SPEAKER_00

That sounds pretty relaxing. Like you're just driving little thingies all day and stacking pallets, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and the luxury there was semi-consistent outtimes. I used to get so upset when our outtime would go up by like a half an hour, and then I realized there was a luxury of that because I actually had a somewhat consistent outtime. But like just being able to just listen to orders, get into the zone, do that. Like, I I still had a coworker experience, but it wasn't enough where they would distract me or like upset me or drama or anything. It was just like, hey, let's have catch conversations, we gotta get to our orders. I really enjoyed that. Plus, they provided lunch, so I could always get like a protein bar for free. That was always nice. It was aldies. Um it was a really nice experience just because it was like, here's what you do, go do it. And you could get in the zone, it felt distracting enough. It was terrible when your whole palate fell over and glass and everything fell and broke and it was a little stressful because you had to be quick, but the luxury of that compared to where I'm at now was very nice. Now, granted, I think there at the time I was getting paid $18 USD, but that's also because I chose to work Monday through Friday. If you picked up like weekend shifts and whatever, you get paid like an extra two or three dollars. Like it was a pretty okay job for what it was. Yeah, I kind of miss it. I'm not gonna lie. So if Aldi's ever comes up, I I recommend uh applying there if uh the if this job you're looking at doesn't go through. Okay. It really isn't bad. Get you in the zone, you kind of do what you need and just do it. Um, they have they have music on, so yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Um I feel like it's pretty yeah, it would you would I be able to wear like an airpod or something?

SPEAKER_01

You cannot because you use machinery that could break. That makes sense. So fortunately, no, which did suck. But it makes it yeah, it makes sense. Now, when you have to go to the freezer section and you weren't planning to, those days suck so bad. Every morning meeting be like, all right, uh Adobe, you're going to the cooler today? It's like a cooler. It's like 30 degrees in there. It's horrible. Holy shit. Oh, yeah, I know. It was oh that's the freezer. The cooler was 40 something. I don't know, it was cold. So those are a little more miserable. But like it had its flow to it. It's kind of boring. I don't know. It's just god, we're so old. Look at us talking about jobs.

SPEAKER_00

Working and shit. Taxes. What's next? What are we in for how to do your taxes?

SPEAKER_01

Would we ever have taxes? I guess if we say make a certain amount of it someday. How do we do that? We get a tax guy. Could our tax guy be the third member of the podcast?

SPEAKER_00

Let's have let's let's let's let's interview a tax guy. How would that go? I don't know. We found somebody that that does taxes. That's gonna be the most boring episode ever.

SPEAKER_01

It's like I don't even edit edit it. I just cut it up in a way that's needed and there's nothing special to it.

SPEAKER_00

Arden is a tax guy.

SPEAKER_01

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

Oh.

SPEAKER_01

Never mind. Arden is not a tax guy. So I don't know where to steer this episode because this is an us episode. What I I want to go back on the question of three things that made you happy though. So like what what what small things have you done this week? Anything small like nitpick.

SPEAKER_00

Tiny little things. Um I hung out with my boy River this week uh this week, this uh past um when was it? Monday. We went to Dunlop and we hit some jumps. Um I brought the BMX out there and that was my first time on the on the dirt jumps with the BMX, and it was so weird because it's such a tiny little bike, and um it's just it's weird to to be hitting those bigger jumps on that tiny little thing.

SPEAKER_01

I mean you fit on it fine normally, don't you?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah, it's it's meant for my little size. But um no, it's it's fun. It's just a little challenging, but I'll get there.

SPEAKER_01

That sounds fun. I haven't I've done I've done some putting um disc golf putting. I I've actually failed to mention that in the past few episodes now. This week I haven't because work is still I wanna I'm nauseous because of how bad it is. But um I mean I've been doing a lot of putting because my shoulder injury is still prominent, so I can only do so much with like using that muscle, but I'm allowed to putt. And if anyone doesn't know what putting, it's not throwing a disc air frizz, but you're kind of pushing it forward rather than like trying to throw it a long distance. Um I do it about 30 feet roughly from the basket. So that's been really fun. What is okay, one hobby you would pick up if you had the time for.

SPEAKER_00

Reloading ammo. Huh? I would love to reload my own ammo and like make my own loads and like um I would love to watch.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, that's funny.

SPEAKER_00

You would love to you would love to watch me make my own loads.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

When we gotta make out.

SPEAKER_00

We already did.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

You wanna do it again?

SPEAKER_01

We gotta ask our girlfriends. Maybe they can make out. It'll be a quadruple makeout says. We can all make out! We don't put that in. Don't put that in. Maybe this episode is just gonna be labeled cringe. Just all it is, just cringe.

SPEAKER_02

You know, I've been wanting to ask you this for a long time.

SPEAKER_03

Uh-huh. We have fan mail.

SPEAKER_00

We do have fan mail this week. We have a fan mail.

SPEAKER_01

So we got fan mail in again this week. Uh look at all this fan mail. This is awesome. So this is from our YouTube from we're just gonna call him W. Because that's how we know him as. So W said, Hi, I breathe. I also have 15 Soon to Be17 hobbies. By the way, this one was commented on the even more furry hot takes episode for reference. But first, I want to say that I've been enjoying the podcast, definitely my new favorite as of like a month and a half ago, when I began catching up from episode one. Good buddy and uh now newly evolved Aeon shared you guys with me during our road trip to MFF. That's really fun. I guess I took my sweet time getting around to listening on my own. We appreciate you. This week's hobby is drawing. I do 2D digital art, and lately I've been experimenting with my own art style. So so far, no particular reason other than my own curiosity. What kinds of art styles are your favorite? It's a question for us.

SPEAKER_00

There's more to it. We'll go ahead and answer that. What kind of art styles are our favorite?

SPEAKER_01

I don't really know like the difference of art styles, if I'm Do you want me to fire a few out at you in case you're familiar with any styles? Sure. So we can go along the conversation of realism and like cartoonism and stuff like that. If you want to go through specific mediums, which is what I like to delve into, like some of my favorites are charcoal or uh pointillism slash like pen art. Um, but there's obviously stuff like oil paintings and like acrylic, and then you go down to like oil or acrylic paintings or watercolor. Those are all like different styles. Talking about furry specifically, like so there's realism, there's a cartoony aspect of stuff. Um, and then there's different shading styles, like uh there's stealth shading versus like like just like soft tone shading or just all it's just like hyper-realism, depending on which Okay, Adobe, please put some like fucking idiot music over this because it's so fucking boring and nerdy. Um I like charcoal and pen styles a lot, and I love when people experiment with that in terms of like other colors when people splash like watercolor into pen drawings. Those are some of my favorites. I just don't see mine.

SPEAKER_00

I just appreciate anybody that's able to pick up a fucking pen or pencil and draw some shit on the paper. On a piece of paper, like I'm blown away because I I I just don't have an artistic bone in my body. And it it sucks and it makes me sad, but whenever I see other people pick up a pen or pencil and watch it come to life, it's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_01

It's learnable, but you just gotta put it in the top.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Following this pen mill, uh W also says, or W specifically, your favorite art style to draw versus your favorite tooth. Ooh, okay. So I kinda already gave it away. I didn't read this forehead, was I really like pen uh art styles. I really like using uh traditional pen, just a simple pen too, this is nothing fancy, it's just a ballpoint pen and doing scribble art with it, where you just scribble a bunch and then you just end up making certain areas more dense to then create shading or the uh the illusion of light versus uh dark areas. God, I love those. I used to do those back in high school, so that's probably some of my favorite. Um, but my favorite to draw, because I don't always enjoy doing that. My favorite to draw, even though I don't draw much anymore, I like to just stick with 2D digital art, typically down, I don't draw how much I just like the cartoon line art and flat colors. I like the simplicity behind it while also seeing what I can make my brain pump out. Um I do like a sketchy style. It's maybe just like sketching a little bit and throw some color on the 2D digital art surface usually my code.

SPEAKER_00

I understand that. I understand what that means. You do? I do.

SPEAKER_01

Yay! W ends off with, I keep forgetting to post my social media, but I'm trying to get back into starting with Blue Sky at Wiffler the Protegen with one F and two R's. I also put my art in the Discord server. So if you want to join the Discord, you can go see W's down there as well. We'll post your twit at the description down below if anyone wants to check out W here. They're pretty awesome. So check them out. Come join Discord. You guys know chat with W and see how cool they are because they're pretty cool. Thank you for writing in. We appreciate you.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, that was a good one.

SPEAKER_01

That was fun. That was an involved question. I appreciated that one. That was really nice.

SPEAKER_00

I like that.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, we have about at least 30 minutes of us time. How would you like to spend our us time together?

SPEAKER_00

Together forever.

SPEAKER_01

I'm so unprepared, so I'm so sorry. I'm so excited.

SPEAKER_00

No, you're fine. Um, I didn't expect this is this is this is new to me because uh I haven't been ever put in this predicament. Um today I guess we could talk about anything. Umelda wants to Amelda really wants to buy a boat. I don't know where to go from that. Okay. Tell me more. She's been she she wants a boat, and she wants a boat really bad. She's been telling me she wants a boat for the about the past month now. And it's ever since we went on that fishing trip to Lake Tex Lake Tectoma. And we're planning a fishing trip to go back out there and And in like the middle of next month, and I'm so excited because we're gonna catch so many fish and we're gonna eat all the fish and we're gonna drink and smoke a bunch of weed and have a good time. And I wish you were there because it would be really, really fun.

SPEAKER_01

Is this I I miss I missed this point. So what body water is it on? Is it a lake or is it Yeah, it's a lake. Okay. I could do a lake. I can't do well. Can you see the land? Some lakes are real big. Okay. As long as you can see land, I'm good. And it's not too deep and kind of close to shore. I don't like bodies of water, so yeah.

SPEAKER_00

So you so so you wouldn't want to be on the boat, you'd want to stay in the cabin.

SPEAKER_01

I would do boat if boat was close to shore.

SPEAKER_00

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

If boat is in no more than ten foot deep of water, boat good. More than ten feet, I would still try it. Don't enjoy it. Don't enjoy it at all. Okay. Did I ever tell you the one time I tried to cross a river by swimming it?

SPEAKER_00

Holy shit.

SPEAKER_01

I never told you the story. What river? I don't know, but it was a so I say river. The Allegheny. I would say it's as wide as the Allegheny River, I guess for reference. Holy shit. Maybe a little uh it's I was but I would still say it's in some of the narrow parts. And this wasn't a big river, but it was big enough. So it was a big weather. What it was on the big weather. I was out with my boyfriend at the time and then uh our friend. We were, I think, at a campground, we were going somewhere to go hike and walk around for a little bit, and we come to this body of water. And I don't remember how the conversation came up, but I remember us talking about the rock that we saw on the other end. And they're like, man, that rock's pretty far away. I don't know how the conversation came up. This is this is me trying to sum up the story because I remember telling them in my manly confidence tone, oh, well, you fellow, but peasants, that rock can't be that far away at all. I say, and we pretty much go back and forth. I'm like, I feel like I can swim to that rock. I stood corrected because I swam about a third of the way through the river with the current. Trying to, I was fighting the current while still trying to cross the river. It was deep, like very deep. I don't know how deep it went. And then my vivid imagination decided to freak me the fuck out and convince me that there is a large fish around me. I know there wasn't, but just how my brain functions. And I am so exhausted, and I'm having to swim back. So it's not very involved, but just me trying to cross a river by swimming it, not a good idea because you can't do that. That's why there are kayaks and boats. You cannot cross it. How far it was, I don't know. I I don't know. I wouldn't say it was the biggest river in the world, but I exhausted myself when I swam less than half of it. So if that gives you any indication, that swim back was miserable and very scary.

SPEAKER_00

It sounds fucking miserable.

SPEAKER_01

It was very scary because I was very boosting things to do with dubs. Well, they hear a bleep, so the audience doesn't, but they hear a bleep. So yes, blank things to do with does the dumb with dobes. I have a lot of dumb stories. I'm sure I could think of something else. I'll think something else. Tell me a dumb story. What's a dumb story? Storytime.

SPEAKER_00

Uh, let's see if I have any dumb stories. One time in the army, I was driving through a parking lot, and I decided to kind of drift my truck a little bit in the gravel. And some city workers were there, and they told my company commander on me. Whenever I went back to work, my platoon sergeant was standing there and was he was like, Hey, did you did you drift your truck in the parking lot?

SPEAKER_03

I was like, What?

SPEAKER_02

Me?

SPEAKER_03

Me? Little old me? Lil me Yeah, I did.

SPEAKER_00

And they said, Well, you're gonna go fix it. I said, Okay. So they gave me a bro a push broom and a shovel, and they made me go sweep my ruts that I made and fix the rock in the parking lot. And then once we were done, we went back in and uh one of the NCOs was like, hey, I'm gonna go out there and look at it.

SPEAKER_02

And we got out there and he was like, Man, it looks pretty good, but you missed one thing. There's a bunch of trash out here that you missed.

SPEAKER_00

I was like, Oh no. So he makes us pick up all the trash in his parking lot, and we go back and we we're like, okay, we picked up all the trash. And he's like, Okay, I'm gonna go back and check. And he comes back and checks, and he pulls out these little tiny microscopic pieces of paper that you wouldn't even that that I don't even think you can see with the human eye. And he's like, You missed some and I was like, Oh, so that's how this is gonna go.

SPEAKER_02

So we had to go back in the parking lot with him, and he we were walking around with him, and he would be like, Oh, you missed one. Oh, right by your foot.

SPEAKER_00

And dude, these pieces of paper, like you he has like the magnetic toe or something that automatically like lets him find pieces of paper that are so fucking tiny, and they are like, dude, oh I had to. What were you out there for? We were out there for like four hours, and then whenever we were done, I had to bring all the trash inside, count all the pieces of little trash that I found. There were like 390 something pieces of little trash particles. And for that, I had to do with my friends that helped me, um, we had to do 390-something push-ups collectively afterwards as a punishment.

SPEAKER_01

Sounds like you learned your lesson.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, and then I had to write a I had to write a letter to the mother of the parking lot and tell her what I did to her son, and that I was really sorry.

SPEAKER_01

That's humiliating.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, it was terrible.

SPEAKER_01

I'd pay money to watch that though.

SPEAKER_00

That was terrible. That's my dumbest story from the military. My lovely wife, Melda, still has the um the letter on her phone that I wrote. That's I'll have to find it and re- and send it to you.

SPEAKER_01

You will have to. That is funny as fuck. Thank you for sharing.

SPEAKER_00

You're welcome.

SPEAKER_01

I'd pay money. This Aeon says this. I'd pay money to watch Adobe flop like a good thing I had the video.

SPEAKER_00

No!

SPEAKER_01

God Amilda sent it in our group chat and I re-watched it, and I sunk into my chair when I watched. Oh my god. Every time I rewatch it, there's so many eyes on me. There's so many.

SPEAKER_00

There was like 30, 40 people in that circle.

SPEAKER_01

Oh.

SPEAKER_00

That was a big fucking circle.

SPEAKER_01

That's 60, 80 eyes on me. Oh, dude. Oh my god. Did you remember? Oh god.

SPEAKER_00

Alright, everybody says that they kind of want to see the videos.

SPEAKER_01

No, no one will see the video. Oh my god. There needs to if someone wants to see that video, there needs to be some goal we set in stone before that ever gets released. Period. I know I sound like I'm over exaggerating. That is the hardest thing I've done and have to rewatch. I oh my god.

SPEAKER_00

I'm watching it now.

SPEAKER_01

I just I know the moments. It's so cringe. It's so it hurt so bad. For anyone who isn't caught up to date, um the video we're talking about was a we mentioned before, but in case we were in a dance circle at TFF, Texas Furry Fiesta during like one of the night raves, and I was drunk and I wasn't wanting to go in the circle. So I shake my arms waiting for a beat to drop when I go into the circle. And then I just flop on the ground on my stomach, which is kind of funny, but then I should have left it at that, and then I do it again and like twerk for a second on the ground. I don't. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_00

Oh my god. It's such a I got god, I wish I was going to AnthroCon. Oh, you could because that would ruin you. What? It'd be like, hey, you guys know Adobe? Look at this video.

SPEAKER_01

It's like I'm making a new friend. Oh guys, look, this is also Adobe.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, I love you. I love you so much.

SPEAKER_01

Arden says secondhand embarrassment to your first hand embarrassment.

SPEAKER_00

I'm gonna send A on the video.

SPEAKER_01

No, you're not. Nope. We have to hit a goal. There needs to be some goal we set, and then we can release it. What's the goal? Set a goal. Unsend it! I can't. No! Rayo! You're an asshole. You are a giga asshole.

SPEAKER_00

I'm just kidding. I haven't seen it yet.

SPEAKER_01

I love you so much. You're such a sweet friend. I don't know how to do it to touch you.

SPEAKER_00

I'll post it in the server.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna kick you. What's what's one of your cringiest moments then? Wise guy.

SPEAKER_00

In the furry fandom? Um none yet.

SPEAKER_02

I can name a few. What? When when you Yeah That's what I thought.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not cringe. And then when I'm not cringe, I I'm sorry, I keep cutting out. And then what when you also over there and I'm not cringe, and then he said just say it. And then I said See, that was your cringiest moment.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. Oh my god. Yeah, no. Aeon's right. That's weird. I whenever I dropped my phone in the lake and I found that random lady sitting on the bench, and I was like, Can you hold my feet until you get my phone?

SPEAKER_01

Oh shit.

SPEAKER_00

That uh she probably thought I was a freak, bro. She was like, No, I don't know how to swim. Even though she could stand in it. Even though she wasn't gonna be getting in the water. She just didn't want to touch my slimy little feet.

SPEAKER_01

Alright, so we got a little bit of time left. We actually got a considerable amount of time left. Let's just let's uh let's let's bring our focus into the podcast, maybe something that might hook short past the hook now. What are some of your favorite moments in the podcast so far that we've made? Because we're getting close to a year. We're not at that point yet. But this is episode 43. We're getting there. What are some of your favorite moments, bits, just anything that you've enjoyed about the podcast so far?

SPEAKER_00

I like the genuine laugh moments like we're having today. And it's just it's such a fun time with you specifically because well, I haven't we haven't recorded with anyone else, so I haven't had anybody else on here with us, so I just know you. And you are great, and you make this so much better than it could ever be. And without you, we wouldn't be able to do this. I love you, I am pre-create, and I'm not cringe.

SPEAKER_01

No, of us two, I'm definitely the louder one, and I'm definitely more cringy. 100%. You you watch the cringe, I create the cringe. So like the fucking why did I leave the chugging LaCroix bit in? I re-listened that episode a few episode. I love that episode. Old furry forums, and I was like, oh guys, I I got a chugging LaCroix. I love that episode. I think something that resonates with me is when the your cat shit on you bit episode.

SPEAKER_00

We gotta revisit. If we have a guest on, we should do Filthy Fo and the Blakes episode with them. That would be fun. Do like some improv stuff with some guests. Yeah. Which by the way, guys, stay tuned. We will bring a few guests on in a future episode. There's a couple people we got in mind. Um, what what are do you have like a least favorite episode? And I'm not gonna be offended. Like, this isn't like a bad at me for like editing. Like, do you just have like least favorite episode in regards to like a topic or a thing that just didn't stick with you very well?

SPEAKER_00

Um, not really. I think all the topics that we've done are pretty pretty unique in in terms of topic king. Let me scroll through them.

SPEAKER_01

I'm also doing that right now. If there's any any that sticks out as your favorite, my least favorite was the convention travel preparations because that was just me and I didn't know how to do it, and I was so miserable. You can hear it in the tone of my voice. Which one? The convention travel preparations is what I was by myself, Adrica.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, yeah, I remember listening to that one.

SPEAKER_01

Like it's fine to still like assist the weekly upload schedule that we have, but oh yeah. I mean, I don't really dislike any of them because I don't I feel like we wouldn't upload them if we just like that.

SPEAKER_00
