Good evening, gentle listeners or watchers, and welcome to "Destractable" this episode. A little in Bob cleans his micropond, while Wacked Wade plows car and hurts from playing with his balls, then they double-team the ban. Multi-talented marks, salitiously slays buyers, notes nerfs, moose mice, power paints like Picasso, and talks backwards like a Titan. For facing foils, to Wade's terrible translations, it's time for Mark's "One Man Show", "Pot 2". Now sit back, and prepare to be distracted, and enjoy the show. Hello! Bob, you commit. Oh, okay, yeah, hey, welcome back to other episodes, "Destractable". I'm your co-host for today's episode. And I'm your co-host for today's episode. If you missed the last one, you should go back and watch, because it was a real ripper, and it ended with Mark getting the winners' wheel and landing on the "One Man Show". And therefore Bob and I had to do a lot of work. Hours spent by a candlelight, moonlight, and a little bit of other light source. Max's least favorite kind of light. Moonlight. Oh god, not moonlight. Man, this whole Artemis thing was happening, and I just had to turn off my TV and plug my cable. The internet houses, like, I can't deal with this moon nonsense. Oh yeah, and Mark's the competitor. We usually introduce us, feels so stupid now. Like, I get that there might be people listening to this, you know, like they're probably new listeners, blah, blah, blah, but it's just like over 400 of these things. If you want an introduction that makes sense, go watch one of the early ones. We really had a whole script as a whole thing. Anymore, what's the point, you know, especially today? Usually there's one judge, and there's two guys, and they're competing out the window. Today is Mark's "One Man Show". It's all about Mark. Yeah. Yippee. So ready. It's going to be a celebration of things that Mark enjoys, and that Mark is very good at. See, I know all both of you when you're judging, you put your thumb on the scale because you're like, it's a little too close to a tie here. Let me just, nah, me. I face it down. I face it down. I've had a number of winter wheel spins lately. What do you mean? That's true. And that's true. But for my story, I'm going to keep saying this. Oh no. Craft the narrative. Yes, sorry, sorry. Craft the narrative. Yeah, because there's no other people here, so I could lose as many points as I want. So I'm free for the first time in our entire podcast history. Yeah. You've never been a cruel dictator before or anything. Never. Ever. And I don't recall that happening in explicit detail. Never. Wait, we were going to still do small talk, right? Since we only do these so rarely now. The podcast episodes, yeah. I feel like we have to do small talk. Otherwise, no one's going to understand what's going on in our very busy and exciting lives. I agree. And we have so much to talk about that we didn't want to skip a week because then it's like, well, it'll be gone by next week and we'll never remember it happen. I just took a trip to Cincinnati. That was fun. Just to visit our Cincinnati or, yeah, we were all hanging out. Oh, who's we? We, you, me, that other guy? You, me and Molly's husband. That other guy. Not a good start. Not a good start. Yeah. James is at you. What do you think he got it? It's a good city. It looks really nice, smells great, tastes wonderful. There's really no comparison, no comparison to the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, SINCEY, as they call it in the SINCEY. - The SINCEY, that's true, that's catching on. - Copyrighted phrase. - You owe Mr. Cincinnati five dollars. - Is that like the red guy with the baseball head? - No, that's Mr. Red Lakes. - Oh, okay. - Mr. Cincinnati is our glorious founder and leader, and he's the one who invented the catch phrase, the SINCEY. - Well, he also has a baseball for a head, but that's coincidental. - That's coincidental. - It's coincidental. - It's a tragic childhood accident, not a fun baseball mascot. Don't get him mixed up. - But I'm not, you know, besides the things that you guys, uh, uh, uh, talked about, it's been nothing but "Slay the Spire 2". That has been my life. It's been so nice. Everybody already knows this because "Slay the Spire 2" was like the number one most played games. It's apparently running on, I just opened steam. It's running on, right now. Are you accidentally playing it somewhere? - Oh, I think it might be open on my laptop or something like that. It's very, very fun. I'm not gonna make any videos about it 'cause I don't need it, but it's just like, it's just so stupendously good. So simple, but complex. It's really, really nice. However, there are some, this happens with games like this. Whenever there's an update and they're like, we're nerfing this and we're gonna balance this, you know, gamers just go like, I have to be the most powerful ever in the history forever. My dad, when he was working on doing layouts of computer programming, he'd have to go like, or just like, "I have to be the most powerful ever in the history forever." I don't know, they've nerfed a bunch of things because what they don't want is for builds to easily just go into infinity. And I mean, I know it's possible. I've never done it, but it's like, you know, some people instead of playing for, you know, fun and a casual thing, you know, some people need, like, "I gotta be the most powerful ever in the history forever." Layouts of computer books for Yadayata, for Wiley or whatever, Wiley and Coyote books company. - Acme? - Yeah, he would take a break by playing this game called Myse Men. And let me tell you, there's no progression. There's no rogue-like, light or anything of the type. It's just, you have Myse on the side. You pull them up and down and they walk. And if they jump on the, step on the other one's head and kill that mouse. And then you win by getting the most people to the other side. And it's, it's, it's, it never changed, didn't get it. Well, I guess it didn't get patches, but, you know, he played that and he was happy. He had to go uphill with those Myse both ways. He's unrightfuls, you know? Spoiled, spoil is what I say. - I was expecting the Myse so box today, but I didn't expect it to be so good. - Ah, man, I just Googled the Myse Men game. And wow, my memory was perfect. Because I used to watch my dad play that all the time. And just the way that Myse turned and look at you when they were like, we're trusting you with our lives here. It's a dos game. I forget, I don't even know when, when was it first made? - Oh, wait, I know this. - Yes, this is like unlocking a memory. Oh, 95, okay. - I also played this. I did not understand it because I was a child, but I was like, wow, look at that, they walked around. - Nope, no, I could not win at this. - Don't they eat cheese? Wow, I'm gonna find the IP for this. I'm gonna make the Myse Men movie. Make a billion dollars. That'll show us all. - Yeah. But all the buyers are just Mark standing there. They look over at you at the same time. - Six years from now, there's gonna be an interview with Mark and it's gonna cut back to the clip from this part. I was like, I'm gonna find the IP for this and cut back to Mark and realize we're like, well, what can I say, I have vision. (laughing) Everyone thought I was joking. I used more cheese than any director before me. (laughing) - The most fake cheese on a set in history. - Mark in the hospital with yellow orange eyes. I had a cheese accident. (laughing) I don't know how, but it'll all be filmed in the NACMO. - These are funny, see, that's good. - Yeah, wait, you just need to warm up with those few bad jokes. Not that you've ever told a bad joke in your life, but it's all I needed, thanks for knowing, knowing it's all, unless they did, I don't remember. - Anyway, that's the news. If I had news, I said news. It's also people don't care, but I'll say it anyway. A lot of NAB news came out just today when we're recording it and it's just the most exciting day in like video-related tech you could possibly imagine. - And I'm stuck here doing my stupid one-man show instead of reading all the delicious delightful news. - Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, we all love the national ass butts. - I don't know what it stands for. - Yeah, well, you got it, that's it, man. (laughing) I thought it was wrong, I was gonna throw my answer out there, but you got it, first try. - The new, amazing, buh, nothing came to mind. - You could say butts again, you've butts. - No, no, I was trying to do a real techie, dude. What's a techie, where's the B backlog? - Yeah, backlog, that's it. - You guys have got me, though, where I've been playing Slay this part, too. And, dude, I have been plowing Carl. That sounds weird out that way. (laughing) - Dude, you just been giving it to Carl? - Whoa. - I've just been giving it to Carl. - Whoa, my God. - I'm like half three quarters of the way through Bedlam Bride now, I'm just tearing through. - It's crazy, huh? I feel like I said, every time you give us a car, it's time to crawl our update. - Yeah, like you guys, even though with you guys telling me this, I'm like, Okay, they're saying that, but like it has to have some chill. They're gonna be some amount of chill. Are you out of the first phase yet? Are you into the second phase? I just got to where officially it says part two, I think. Dude, it gets so crazy. No, it's so much crazier. You have no idea. Part one was crazy. How can it get more crazy? You have no idea. Oh, you have no idea. I don't. Every time I think I do, the wrenches, they come fly. It's like patches from dodgeballs throwing wrenches at me non-stop and I can't dodge them. They're all it. I know, right. Well, I have been battling our pool. We have a pool in the backyard. I like the way you say that. Pool. I have been trying to get it balanced so that it's not toxic and I think the last people who lived here didn't take very good care of it is what I've been running up against because I thought I think I did research and I thought about doing it right and it just every time I do something, it like makes it worse. But I think I'm on, I think I'm on the right track. I think I had too many dissolved solids. I'm racing to get the pool open because every day I'm out there pouring crap in the pool and cleaning it and James is just looking out the window. When did we get the pool? Dad's playing with the pool. I want a pool. Why do you have to rush? What kind of time windows does chemical reaction have? Is it organic chemistry class where it's like you really need to personally? I mean, everything you do is see where it's at the next day. I'm doing research. I'm like, this is the problem. Can't get any free chlorine means there's still too much stuff in the water. All right, I need to shock it again. Put the shock in, leave it overnight, come back the next day. Now it's cloudy. Oh, why would that have made it cloudy? Do a little research. And it's like, all right, the pH is too low. Maybe I need to raise the pH and then try to get. I don't know, man. I don't know about pools. It's a whole thing. I don't sure about chemistry. But yeah, I'm just standing out there like scooping gunk out of our pool and trying to get it working. And James is standing in the window, just like, I want to go to the pool so bad. Oh, God. I know, man. I know working on it. I didn't pool by played basketball for an hour and a half yesterday. And I can barely move today. That's impressive. Maybe I was filming for cloak and I barely did anything. This is how out of shape I am. So I understand the feeling here, where all I'm doing is holding a camera around with a tripod and I'm like getting in some angles. And I'm not even doing a lot. We're just like, they're in one place, you know, just need to move things around. I was so sore in my hips, like my outer hip muscles just heart like, er, ache. I've never had an ache there before, but I forget how physical it is when you're just trying to look at camera around. Do you have like a dolly for the tripod or do you have to pick it up? I pick it up. Yeah, even if I imagine it's quite a heavy serious tripod, because you don't fuck around with cheap equipment anymore. No, I don't. I don't. But still I could, if I thought about it a little bit, they make a tripod wheelbase where you can wheel it around and click it locked. And I don't have that. And there's a lot of things that I could do. So just in my old age, I, in a B releases are happening right now. What if they have the new super tripod deluxe? They have an AI powered wheelbase. You just say what you want to film and it moves to where it thinks you want it to be. And then you actually move it to where it's supposed to be. I'm thinking about filming from like the 1/3 on this one, but what about 1/6? I think that's a great idea, Mark. Let's talk about ideas as we make this happen. Thanks, tripod. What? You know, this guy thinks he's a filmmaker. He doesn't know about the 1/3 and the 1/6th. Yeah, I guess so much to learn. Don't you know the 2/8? This all the fractions. Yeah, 2/8. You know, well, you don't want 4/8. I know you can, you can technically simplify, but it's 8 boxes. So you still have to say the 2. It's a lot of fractions in movies, Mark. You got to catch up. My dad was filming under the car and he was like, I said 1/3, not 1/6. He threw us a tripod at my head. I don't think I want to catch this macro shot. Oh, good times. Classic. That being said, do you think it's time, Bob? Time for the 1-man show to begin. 1-man show time. You guys are like full frame in your cameras. I'm always like, wait out here. That looks so tiny. You can aim it. No, you can't. There's nothing you can do about it. I forgot. Wait, scared was built into the wall. It doesn't aim. I forgot. You know, the one thing I never thought about of like, no, it's really mounted on the desk. I could move the monitor back and then I got more space to tilt it down. You don't even have giant monitors. They're very big. If I'm thinking about it correctly, I'm pretty sure all of that stuff moves. We're a very not mobile household here. Maybe. Maybe I shouldn't do it right now. I don't know if right now it's the time to get it done. No, do it right now. I forgot that all three of my monitors are now on one stand and they're very big and having a slight movement. How are they on one stand? I found some custom third party stand that's not meant to hold monitors this big, but I made it work. Sketch. The way you protect your investments is hilarious to me. You know, you bought like the most expensive monitors in the known universe and then bought a $12 Amazon special stand to put them on. What do we know? It was it was a very expensive third party stand, but it was for the why do you buy an expensive thing for the wrong purpose. I didn't understand what I bought it. I didn't know size mattered. But stands. I don't understand you. I thought it was a one size fit all kind of thing. All right, Mark. Yes. We're going to need you to open Microsoft paint. All right. And you're going to be sharing your screen, but you get to get it all configured how you want to be doing it. The first game for today's show we have played before, but you have always been on the delivering end and wait and I've been on the receiving end. And we thought we had so much fun with that that we wanted you to do it. All right. That sounds good. I don't mind that. That sounds great. I like your so you're your description of what happened at the red carpet the Oscars was so iconic you're clearly much more talented at this drawing an MS paint than we are type stuff should I do the calligraphy brush or should I do the natural pencil. Oh, you could do however you so choose, but that's pretty, but I don't know if that's going to work right. I do want you to set it up correctly. You're going to want a double tall canvas as if you needed room to do one painting and then beneath it another painting all on one big canvas. Wait, do you remember the order that we had discussed for these? I know my order. Do you know your or does it does our order matter come in? I think I know my order. Yeah, I've got I've got the order situated properly on my end, I believe. Or if not, then it's the order I'm deciding to do now. I'm going to flip a coin. Heads is tails. Nope, nope, hang on, hang on. Heads is tails tails. I win. All right, here we go. Heads is way tails is me. It's a lady. We got the heads. Okay. So wait is going to go first and what's about to happen is that wait and I are both about to send you an image. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not. Oh, no, that's the other thing. We're about to not send you shit. Don't do that. We're about to describe to you an image and you're going to draw it. We're going to send you an image. You draw it. Oh, God. Yeah. Functioning. I'm going to full blast here. It's all I got. And Wade gets to go first and Wade has 30 seconds to work with you on this image. Okay. And then I'm going to have a timer. The timer's going to go off and it's going to be my turn. We're going to switch to working on my image and we're going to go back and forth. You get a total of four minutes, but it's in 30 second chunks working with a way than me, than way than me. Each of us does four mini sessions. Okay. The goal is to end up with two pictures that look exactly like what Wade and I have pulled up on our screens in front of us. Oh, I know it'll be that way. I'm sure it will. I know it will. You're a great drawer. I believe in you. And Wade, I guess whenever you're ready, I'll just hit my timer and you just and Mark, I assume you're ready. Yeah. I'm ready. Always whenever. Just tell me when to go, Bob. Just start. Just go. All right. So Mark, quick over, we're going to have Santa standing in front of a white bed sheet background. Like he was filming a threatening video or something, but the background is kind of like a wrinkly white bed sheet, wrinkly white bed sheet. What? Santa's mouth. You can't see because of his beard. He looks very surprised facing the camera. Well, okay. Okay, hold on. He's wearing minion goggles. Wait on and his coat is open exposing a white t-shirt underneath. Okay. Hold on. Wait. Hold on. Say all. Wait. Okay. What the fuck? Background white bed sheet wrinkly. Santa facing the camera. Yeah, I got that. How do I draw? It's already white. Moody moody moody moody mobs turn. All right. Mark, we have a race horse running from right to left. It's a grass. Uh, track and there's green hedges in the background and there's a white fence behind the horse. The horse does have some details to it but yeah it's like a brown horse running from right to left kind of in the yeah yep just like that yep that's what horses look like. Uh-huh? It's kind of what horses look like? Hold on wait for it. No that felt that felt mean but like that that's that's pretty that's better than I could do for a horse. I do have to give that to you that and it does have a saddle. It has like socks has like white socks on its legs but then the rest of its brown. White. White. White. Okay done. Oh it's a cut time. Okay get to you. Alright Mark back to Santa. Santa. Minion goggles. Thick minion goggles. He looks very surprised. Believe it or not he's not all beard. There is a face tucked in where the eyes are. The minion goggles are black. Uh this fucking Santa jacket. Open expose them. The white T shirt underneath. The white T shirt. Perfect. I'm not going. It's got to be gold. Oh Bob certain. Alright so we have a brown horse. We got a brown horse. White socks on its legs that come like that you know they come up that for the first part I don't know his shins whatever and the rest of the horse is brown and it has a saddle that's a little black seat on a primarily white saddily bit. A little black seat on a primarily white saddily bit. Yeah so that's yeah yeah yeah like that I love that that's good. Primarily white saddily bit. It's primarily white. There's just like a little black seat on the top. And time. Okay. Alright Mark you need to fill in the fill in the hat. The little white ball is definitely there at the end of Santa's hat. So put that in. Yep it is it's there man. Alright his arms are to his side they're drooping down. Alright drooping down. You can see a little bit of red under the little you know the the vestee part of Santa's thingy. There's a little bit of red on the right side. A little red on the right side. Wait what what the is nostrils are a little puffed out a little bit but yeah perfect. You can't see his mouth all beard. Bigger beard. All beard. Yep. Okay hold on. Alright back to the horse. Oh boy. I really want to work on the background here. We got green grass. We got a white fence behind the horse and then we got green hedges. It's a lot of green. It's very green. I would love yeah yeah green grass green grass. I love that. I love where the horse is at. I think this is a good thing to spend some time on here. Green hedges. And the hedges go all the way to the top of the frame. The very tall hedges. Okay. Alright I see. Oh you even got the gap. I was going to say there's a gap around the horse's head in the in the hedges. Perfect. Oh yeah there is. Yeah on purpose. And then the the only thing you're missing is there's a white fence. It's like not right now there's not time so. Alright okay. Let's get a bigger beard for Santa and fill in that jacket a little bit. It's huge. What do you mean? How can it be bigger? Perfect. We need a bigger beard and hangs down over his chest. I'm working on it. Great. Alright awesome. There it is. Asking you shall receive. Now cover that belt up with more white. There's no belt. No belt. Cuts off his belly button. Is he has a belly button? Not is his belly button out? No no his shirt's covering his belly button. Yes. It's hidden under the shirt. You barely see it. Is he bare-chested? It's a white shirt. Alright I got to build the shirt. I got to build this guy layer by layer man. He's going to white shirt red jacket beard face. That's supposed to be Santa because man how many fingers is this A.I. Santa? My turn. Back to the horse. The horse is great. White fence right? White fence. Yep. It's like a third of the way down from the top. It's like the the horizontal part of the fence and then it has like every 10 feet there's a stick. So not a lot of sticks you know just a yeah yeah white fence. Alright I would say the only the only note I have is the horse is brown it's all brown and then he has like a black nose. So if you want to fill in the horse a little bit oh that's so good. Bed the white socks good catch good catch. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. Beedle-deedle-deed. Back to meet. This is the final round. You got to really polish up the details on Santa. We got it we got to really tone up those eyes and nostrils a little bit Santa's gotten hit by the cloud of smoke. Uh-huh. I mean he's got that's a beard. What do you mean cloud of smoke? Oh whatever it is. I want to make sure I see those those little nostrils. The nostrils yep. Alright honestly no notes that's pretty good. That's pretty much him. Put a little white ball at the end of his hat. You even had it on the right side. Oh yeah no I got you all right I'm just gonna stop there. I'll send you the picture. Ways done. Ways satisfying with this. You're you're yielding the remainder of your time. Doesn't matter. It's up back to the horse. It's looking great. It does have a black like nose, mouth, area. Yep. You're already on that. Uh-huh. The socks are good. Look at this cocky smile on them. Look I thought I was gonna leave this out but he has like black shin guards on his front legs. So he does have like with the black shin guards like that. They're just like the front park. Yeah perfect. Oh my God. On the back ones. Now just on the front ones. Just on the front one. Okay. Gotcha. Um and I guess his feet like his hooves are brown below his socks still. I just just we're just in the details now really here. Time's up. Oh I love it Mark. Alright here's the images Mark so you could share them. There's mine. Okay. Alright. Can't wait for this. I started off with a simple of his images if I could. I want you to know that. Why didn't you tell me to start with a green background? It's a white sheet. It's just dark. Oh, aspect ratio. Oh Santa. It's the same picture. I mean the nose actually. I gotta be completely honest. Wade, this is substantially your faults. The bit here is to laugh at Mark struggling but man every time it was your turn and you started describing stuff. I was immediately like. Why is that what you're telling him? More white. I don't know. It just felt alright. It felt alright. Ultimately ended up pretty good minus the arms. Just wait till you see the comparison with them when I was working on you're going to shit. I'm going to shit. Wait, let me get to the toilet first. Oh man. Everybody listening and watching mostly watching probably actually if we're honest watch out. Oh, that's actually really good. It's fantastic. Wow. You know what? You're killing it. He actually even nailed the left leg perfectly. I know. When he started drawing the horse I was like, "Oh, how do I describe the position?" And then he looked like he was doing it and I was like, "I don't have to describe anything." Mark knows what horses look like I guess. I wish he knew what Santa looked like by default. That would have helped me. This is a horse. I've never seen. You know, it couldn't possibly imagine what that would that could be. I think I did pretty damn good here. I think that's fantastic. I think you mine is the winner, which means I get a point. I'm not writing it down, but you can. Mark and I get a point. Who's competing? I don't even know. I mean, it doesn't matter. You did a great job, Mark. You killed that one. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you. Plus your horse looks so happy. Your Santa looks like he fell off a roof. It looks like he's laying in a snow pile on the ground below the roof. He just fell off of it. He's just like, "I hope Tim Allen shows up soon so I can die." To be honest, though, I say it looks like he's been kidnapped and filming a video begging for his release. That's true, yeah. Both of these have their merits. Yes, it's true. Excellent work. Excellent work. It was clearly a gray background. It's clearly gray. Yeah, it's very clearly gray. I got to give that to you, Mark. Given that it's directly next to a bunch of white. Look, I didn't go to art school. I didn't learn all these fancy colors, okay? It's wrinkly white. I only know the three primary colors. Black, gray and. Well, wait, no, you don't know gray. Ah, fuck the whole thing up. Yeah, see? You don't even know the primary colors. I only know the two primary colors. Black and white. All right, new palette. I think that was a lot of time. I think Mark was very comfortable. Oh, boy. I think we could take five seconds off and do 25 second timers. Don, you want to go first this time? Oh, yes, absolutely. Hold on. I'm going to work in negative space here. That's going to be good for this one. It's happening, so just bear with it. You get reset, however you so choose. I'm not going to judge your process. I just feel like starting from not white might help wait a little bit. A lot of artists start with a solid background color. Often a dark color, something to really work off of to create. Give you something contrast with. Oh, Bob, I just looked at my last images. This is going to suck. No, it'll be good. All right, wait. As soon as I start, click the timer. We're going to do 25 seconds. Yeah, ready to go because that was just too much time. I think the way it's problem was that he felt like he had a lot of time. and he was screwing around too much. - Right, right, yeah. - So anyway, Mark, are you ready? - Yes. - Okay, here we go. I'm gonna give you an overview first. It is a picture of two people sitting on a bench with their two bicycles parked to the left of them. The green grass is underneath the bench on like the bottom fifth of the screen, and then it's blue sky up above. - Wait, hold on. - Okay, wait. - And it's a kind of cloudy day. So green grass, yeah, yeah. And then there's a bench with two people and they're facing away sitting on it. - Hold on, blue sky. - Yep. - And there's a bench. - Bench with two people sitting on it. - Nope, time's up. - Okay, okay. - All right, Mark, there's a railroad that hits the side, the middle sides of the screen. Like it starts at the top, middle, real small. It expands toward us. The railroad's coming toward us. - Okay. - All right, this is perfect. - Is it white or black? - The rails are like a really dark gray and there's some like real dark wood. A little bit bigger, but that's fine. We'll make it work. On the middle of the track, there's a puppy facing to the left side. - Hey, little, little, little, little, my turn again. All right, the bench is on the right third. It's centered on the right third. - Huh? - So there's, and it's like a wood bench. Yeah, you're perfect dead on. It's like a wood bench. - Okay, two people are sitting on it. - Two people sitting on it. Look, they're looking away from us at some beautiful vista or something. - Looking away from, oh, I see from the behind. - Yeah, we're standing behind them. - This is like a, this is like a, yeah, yeah, yeah, perfect. - Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. - Oh, okay. - All right, so Mark, the railroad tracks between each of the track things is gravel. It's like rocky gravel, like light colored rocks in between all of them, okay? - I see we're going for the same color palette again. - Little bit of grass growing, but not much. It's just of the sparse grass. - Sparse grass, got it. - Gold retriever puppy with a black collar, looking wet. Like a wet dog facing the left in the middle of the, no, close to the middle, close close to the front of the track. - This is not a golden, this grass, sparse grass. - Yeah, I figured I was hoping so. - Okay, golden, what do we got? - Golden retriever puppy, wet golden retriever puppy, sitting there looking at the left. - Looking to the left, okay, got it. - And there's like a sidewalk on the left of the railroad track and more gravel on the right of the railroad track. - Sidewalk on the left? - Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. All right, Mark, you're killing it. I like the, the person on the left does have their arm up like that. Like, I don't know how you knew that instinctively, but you were dead on. There are two slats on the bench behind their back, so the two wood slats. The only thing else that there is is there's two bicycles to the left of them, like they rode their bikes here and they parked 'em. And then the sky is a little cloudy, and at the very top, there's like, it's like we're under a tree taking the picture. - Lead, lead, lead, lead, lead. - We'll get to it, it's gonna be great. - All right, sidewalk on the left. Well, a little bit of grass in between, just a little gap of grass in between. Sidewalk. - Oh, look at that sidewalk, I love that. - Gravel to the right of the track. This is a gravel gray. (laughing) - It sure is. (laughing) Puppy's wearing a black collar with a little black nose, little dark eye. - Uh-huh. - Hey, little, little, little, little. - All right, Mark, you got one bicycle. All you need is one more bicycle, and then it's literally just a little bit of clouds, a little bit of leaves at the top, like a tree is dangling above us. - Like a tree is dangling above us, okay? - Yeah, yeah, beautiful. Yep, the bicycle, I love that. - They are different colors, and the left one is a darker color. I don't know how you're just reading these things instinctively from what I'm giving you. - Tree on the left, tree on the left. - Tree above, it is like we're standing under a tree branch. You can't, you can't see this. - Oh, you good, you good. - Are we doing more, are we stopping? - One more, right? - All right, one more. I wasn't keeping track, I didn't count this time. (laughing) All right, coming out of the rails, just a little bit of blocks of wood, where the red is, so it's like a little bit of wood before you get to that metal in the middle, so just put some dark, you know, whoa, not the whole thing. - What? - Just little blocks, it's like a brick. Like a brick is sticking out from the side of the rail. Like that big, yep. There, on each side, for each rail. - Yep, perfect. - Perfect. - I got no more notes, I'm feeling pretty confident. - Okay, the lead, lead, lead, lead. All right, you can't see the tree truck. I was misleading you, just green leaves, just like, wispy leaves, and then it's just some clouds. It's kind of a beautiful blue sky, but a little cloudy, like nice summer clouds. That's it, baby. Yeah, a couple more clouds, a couple more clouds. - Are they cumulonimbus? - Yeah, the cool kind, the cool kind, yeah. - Man, I love cloudy trees. Watch this, watch this. - I don't think I could even add any more notes if I wanted to. - You killed it, Mark. - Thank you, sensei. - There you go, here's your fur, here's my. - Ooh, I told you, you absolutely slayed this one. - I see, I see, I see. - Oh my, whoa. - Oh my God. - Ooh, that's a big image. - Biggest picture ever taken. - You know what, damn. - Yeah, I put the clouds too high, but that was my assumption being in the sky, you know. - I was not gonna get hung up on that 'cause at the end there, we were tied on time. No, I like, the lady has her arms up, and you have your arm up, it's around the other person, but like, and the left bike is black, and the right bike is white, but you have a dark blue, and then like a gray. - That's it, you know, wow. - I think that's a great recreate. I think you nailed it again. - I feel great, I feel great about this. - All right, there's, there's puppy. - I see what you were trying to describe now. Wait, the fucking, I don't know what else to call those. I'll obviously, they're like little bricks. He made them, they did the bricks. - I think that's a river to the left. I don't think that's a sidewalk. - I think it is. - It's very fuzzy and I'm very old. (laughs) - But okay, you know, actually, I was prepared to be like, - What an idiot, this guy can't describe anything. This guy's the worst subscriber in the world. - I was ready to be all like, this guy's never even seen a railroad. - But no, you know what, you divide my expectations. - Thank you, thank you, it's just little bits of grass, mostly on the left, but there is some on the track behind the puppy, on the puppy's nose. - I get it, I get it, no. - No, I think actually, especially if it was like, cropped in a little bit so that just the train track was bigger, I think what Mark captured there is pretty spot on. - Yeah, I was trying to begin to describe it, hit the side of the frame, but that's hard to describe when you have 10 seconds to do it. - See, I knew he'd be good at this. Is this enjoyable, Mark? I was thinking you'd enjoy this. - Yeah, oh God, it's super fun. - Yeah, for me. - 'Cause we played this game a couple of times, but you were always on the, you were the subscriber. - Yeah. - But I feel like, wait and I are not good drawers, which is not your fault. - I don't know if I'm good at either end of this part, but I'm gonna keep doing it. - I can't disagree. - I do feel like we had a lot of time on that one. - We're burning through more touch. Should we just do one more image, Bob or should we? - Yeah, let's do one more, let's do one more. I think we should knock 10 seconds off of there. (laughing) - Are you sure? - I think we should bump it down to 15. I have a simple one. - Why is there no bucket tool? Oh, there's a bucket tool. - This could be really with the blue background. All right, I love it. - What, do you want a different one? - I don't know, blue, no, this is perfect. Honestly perfect, no notes. - Okay, good. - Oh, I just say it like this blue in here. - This blue background loser. - 'Cause when Bob and I were thinking about describing our images, what we were thinking, I'm just starting with a blue canvas. - Well, I can change it at any moment. - Bob, I'm skipping the number four, which is really stupid of me, but I'm skipping the number four for myself. - Yeah, no, okay. So we'll do 15 seconds. - I think I'm my first this time. - Your first this time. - How many rounds do you wanna do it 15 seconds? - Yeah, I think maybe we should do five rounds. - Give an extra round here. - 'Cause time to polish it up a little bit. - Mark, whenever you're ready. - All right, I'm ready. - Okay, Mark, imagine you're sitting in a passenger seat of a car and you're looking at the rear view mirror. And you see in the rear view mirror, a reflection of the car, but then around it, you see sky, a couple of hours, and a bit of road under the mirror. - I don't wanna be this guy, but I think he means side view mirror to begin with, but. - Oh, Italy, Italy, Italy. - Oh, fuck. - This is a close-up picture of a bright red twisty slide. It's about halfway up. It's a picture of the twist. The whole frame is the slide. - Okay, whole frame is the slide. - A child is going down the slide, wearing blue shoes. All you could see is their feet 'cause they're coming around the back side of the twist. - Italy, Italy, Italy. - Ah, okay, okay. - Okay, okay, okay. - All right, Mark, you're getting really close already, but there's a kid wearing blue shoes coming down the slide, and all you can see is their feet going from left to right, poking around the leg bend, right? 'Cause it's a squirtly around slide, side to situation. - Yep, hold on. - I think you're killing it. I see where you're going with this. - Italy, Italy, Italy, ah, fuck. All right, so a car. You see a reflection of the car and the left side of where the sun is. So put a reflection of the window, a door handle. - What colors car? Can I ask that? What, what color's car? It's hard to tell, probably I can dark orange, like a rusty colored car. I feel like that's an important detail. It's hard to tell, man, it's really heavy. it's like a swirly around slide so like all you see is the feet in the middle of the frame kind of peaking around going from left to right going from left to right. Yeah, so it's like swirling around right. So there. little little little fucking now. All right, draw a little bit of a horizon below the sun. So like a flat line. Perfect. Now put a dotted line in the middle of that going down dotted line in the middle of that going down. Yeah, that's the road. And there's a bus on the other the right side. The right side of there's like a bus coming up. Perfect. And now outside the mirror. There's two towers. Okay, basically like blue jeans just gonna be like all we see are legs, right? always here. Yes, perfect. That is exactly right. That's so perfect. And the background behind the slide is like trees, but they're they're like a little bokeh like they're very out of focus trees. It's just a little just a little green lead. lead, lead, lead, lead. All right, Mark. So we need the horizon outside the window here outside the mirror here. And then there's two big like radio towers coming up on the right side. And then more road underneath. Yep. You got it. Two towers. A little bit of grass under the towers. And then it's road. All right. So green little sparse some her other. Yeah, it's just it's just like there's a bunch of trees in the background. They're just kind of out of focus. Boca. Yeah. Boca. Boca. Boca them. Boca. These nuts. Boca. Boca. Boca. All right. So a little bit of grass. No, that's it. Nope. Done. Oh, that's it. I thought that was four. Is that five? That was five. I was checking them off. I left one off. All right. We're done. I don't feel so confident about this. The slide situation is crazy right now. That's exactly what it looks like. Don't even worry about it. All right. - All right, here you go, Mark. - Oh, man, you're right. It was hard to tell what the color of the car. Yeah, it's surprisingly difficult to tell the color of the car. I would guess black. Yeah, it looks like a dark colored car. It looks like it's got a little bit of rusty color in around the mirrors. The only reason I said like a dark orange. That's just the sun glaring on the plastic 'cause it looks like a plastic mirror surround. Well, yeah, but it could be any color that's a darker color or like, yeah, it's hard to tell. Okay, I see what you're going for. Yeah, I get it. I think you nailed it. I thought this guy was like fully out of the window looking in the side. But then I would have seen him in the reflection. I should have from the context clues, you know, I should have known. Our goal was to start off with the simple of an image and then go much more complex. So this is the most complex one I had. I feel like my image got simpler. I just honestly couldn't figure out how to explain it in a way to get that across to Mark very well. I think it was on me this time for my image. Okay, all right. I was not able to imagine this, but I so get, yeah, the sligs. I don't know this slide shape very well 'cause I don't know, I haven't been to a playground in a while. You mean me going like this wasn't enough information for you? Oh, I wasn't looking at you. I wasn't looking at that. Come on, man. Come on. This is the the curse minus the curse slide that makes you long. It's a wonka slide stretches you out and makes you wobbly. It looks like the wicked witch's legs if the house lands on her, but then she went down a slide afterwards like I lost my slippers, I'm gonna go down this slide. A lot less tree than I thought. A lot more slide than I imagined. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I gotta say, I think we'd, yeah, we'd has it, but I'm not the judge, so what do I know? Oh, I don't disagree. I think we definitely took that one. I think that was, I think that was Wade. Our middle round were both pretty good. First round was definitely Bob. I mean, there's so much going on in these like Bob's image, it's all about how complicated the slide is. Mine is just so much shit in the image to describe. See, these don't have to be a punishment. No, they're delightful. That was stressful for Mark. That was stressful. That was very stressful. I was, should we save our other images, Bob, or should we share what we were gonna give him? Oh, I'll share mine. I honestly couldn't decide for sure which one of these last two I had left was worse, but that was the last one I was gonna go with. Oh, oh god, the hands. Oh god. Yeah, the hands, I don't know how they would have described that. Big maybe, but oh, it would have just looked like a wash of brown. I feel like you either would have got it, but it would have been hard to draw, or I would never have been able to explain it to you and you would never even have understood what the fuck was going on in that one. Yeah, I don't think I would have. A ring of hands grabbing wrists of the hand nearest. There's six hands. I would have said there are six people who are all grabbing each other's wrists creating a hexagon of hands. Let's see, if you'd have said people, I would have zoomed it out in my head very far. I would have drawn people. Ah, yeah, yeah. There are six hands. There are six hands grabbing each other. All right, so the next thing we have, do you have your words? I do, I just pulled them up. We have words. I have found three words. Wait, it's found three words. We're going to send them to you and then you have to get the other person who doesn't know the word to guess it. And you get to decide how you give us clues. You have to say it backwards or you have to give us more direction. And I alternator. So Wade goes first because he has found the shortest word, but then we just go back and forth. So Wade goes first giving you the word, which means I go first guessing. Here's your first word, Mark. All right. And you can either say it backwards or let him pick a word and then you say more or less or whatever. I feel like this is be easier if I just say it backwards. I'm here for it. Okay. Eramack. Eramack. Camera. Yeah. Perfect. Wow, easy. Easy. Oh, it's taking forever if it was the guessing. Which way the words go. God, yeah. Well, given that Wade and I discussed how difficult we wanted to make these words, I feel a little bit worse about the words that I have decided to choose. Oh, mine, mine get worse. Don't worry. Once again, I started off. We were warming up, but it gets. Maybe mine just start bad and stay just as bad. And it's, it's totally doable. Mark, there's your first word from me. He's the only one who knows what that is. Sorry. He might, he knows silly words. Okay. Wade, you ready? Yeah. Lebasage. One more. Lebasage. Wet or left? Left. Left. Busage. Lebasage. Jezebel. Jezebel. Beautiful. Ha ha! See? There he goes. I told you he knows goofy-ass words. All right. Okay, good. That's nice. Am I crushing it or are you guys crushing it? I mean, it's got to be Mark crushing it. Bob, are you ready? Oh, I'm ready. I'm doing, I'm going to stick with backwards because otherwise we'll be here all day. All right. Okay, I'm sounding into my head and this is going to sound like I'm joking. I'm not. Catch up. Catch up. Catch up. Catch up. Catch up. Catch up. Catch up. Putch tech. Catch up. Putch you. Catch up. It's definitely catch up. I'm going to die wrong. I was just stuck on the catch up. I realized that might be leading you astray. I mean, you could say it more times backwards. Problem. Can I. He gets a little shot, right? To. Yeah, I think you can keep saying pronounce it. Catch, yep. Catch, yep. Catch, yep. Paycheck. Yeah. See? See? All right. I've got to be honest. I tried to pick one that I thought you couldn't say backwards because I thought that you would want to rely on the saying it backwards. And so I tried. This is purposefully one that I think is going to be really fucking hard to say backwards. Ready, win. Oh, hit me. I laughed this. I laughed this. I laughed this. Sit, Fahlia. Try new, grippy setting mist from Mavily, New York. Maybe it's Mabelane. I laughed this. I laughed this. This. What is this. What are you typing this out? Yeah, that's me. I. I. I laughed this. Shit, shit, Fahlia. Shit, shit, is it shit? I laughed this. I laughed this. I laughed this. Do you think it's good to be getting usefulness? Oh no, no, I love to do it. I don't know what you do it just do it backwards man This started so promising. What happened? This is a word that has been the focus of previous episodes. This is a word that is related to us. I Loved so Awesfully us. What how what are you? Oh, I'm just gonna tell you you're converting that part wrong when you're saying in backwar I love you. I love you. I love you. Oh I agree. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you. So we're ooze. No. How are you doing that? So What was I love to I don't know if we can count that. Yeah, that was really close, but we fall. Yeah, what we fall. Yeah, West West Fall. Yeah, holy shit. You know that tree or whatever it was. Oh my god. Yeah, my brain was not going to West Fallia. Give Bob a hard one. Give him a hard one. Yeah, no, let's do this. First guess. Let's go Mark. I feel like I want a harder word than what I had picked. I Wasn't that mean. Yeah, get a hard and that's what I was saying. Get him a hard one. Yeah, hold on a second. That's a word that we've talked about on multiple episodes of this show and have never gotten right when it comes up, but you reference it all the time. There've been so many bits where there's like, Oh, I can't remember. The Treaty of West Fallia. You're right. You're right. I did think that one would be hard to say backwards, but Mark actually did a pretty good job of it. Oh, yes. Thank you. Are you fighting a new word, Wade? No, I'm keeping mine. I wanted to, but I'm looking like, I'll just keep mine. All right, all right. All right, man, I guess you're having on easy mode. Okay, here we go. First try. Regra Basique. Holy monkey. Cheeseburger. To be fair, when I chose these words, I thought some of them would be the other version of us getting to them, but well done. That's fair. That's fair. That's fair. Yeah, I guess it was, it was my mistake for letting, uh, letting Mark choose. Obviously, one of those is way harder than the other, I guess, although I feel like when we did the saying it backwards the first time, it was like fucking pulling teeth all time. And then this time magically me guessing. Well, you are guessing, though, and you've done a pretty good job, except for the West Fallia, but that was a hard word. That was a hard word. This one is so hard. I can't tell if I'm spelling it right. Hang on. Oh, God. I really don't know if you could do this one saying it backwards, but it's up to you, buddy. I got a bonus one for Mark to send you. All right. Are you ready? Oh, yeah. The fuck? He's casting a spell on you. Don't look him in the eyes. It's not even English. It's an old Norse word or something. Yeah. Good, good, good, you didn't actually get it though. That felt, it felt like you - I'm gonna believe that. - Okay, we got Ray at the end. Yops, and a Ray is YAR, right? (laughing) - Oh man. (laughing) - I think we learned the last time. My brain works different on this than your guys does. - It does, it really does, it really does. - I hear Ray, I think R-A-Y, so I'm like backwards, Y-A-R. Whereas you guys are like, the way you think about it is different. Like Mark and the Cheeseburg were the, I would never have done that 'cause it's H-C. - Okay, it's, you know, I see where your logic is going. But, you know, there's other options too. I'll just say that. - Okay, so the Ray, the air, air, condit, yaning, air-conditioning? - There it is! (laughing) - There it is! - God, I love the way that you just say it, just slightly wrong, and you're like, air-condit-yaning. - That's not a word? - Okay, I got there pretty quick from that one, all right? No, you did, it's just so fun to watch. - Here, here Mark, bonus one for Bob. - Oh, I have a bonus one. All right, first guess. - All right, yeah, I'm ready, I'm ready. (laughing) Bob, I went up in letters, I went up in letters more. - Okay, good. - Okay. - Obot theory pock, no. - Oh man, can you say it one more time? - Obot, near, e-pot, uh-uh. - Is it start with an l, l? - I can't, I can't, I don't think I can give those kind of details, but I believe phonetically I'm doing it as it should be. I will say, I think the third syllable in what Mark's saying is the hardest part to pronounce. - Yeah, Obot theory pock, that could be more accurate. This is where I always worry. We're gonna summon a demon by doing this game because it's randomly, we're gonna say a demon's name. And we're saying it so many times, like we're chanting it. - Uncool. (laughing) Uncarverated, no. - Ah, no, fuck. The first bit is really fucking me up. I can't tell what the end of the word is. - Yeah, if, yeah, if it's not a word you would use casually in day-to-day conversation. That's for sure. - Well, I don't know if I can get this. - Uncaven, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, pock, un-cop, un-cop, obot theory, un-complicated, no, un-com, obot theory, un-complicated, no. Un-com-o-o-obot-t-i-re-puck, but-t-i-re-e-t-i-re-right. You've right, obot theory, right, sable, uncopy-rightable? - Yeah! - Yay! That was a very difficult one. - Oh, that is a long word. All right, do know that word. - So how'd you pronounce it backwards, Mark? - I just want to say how obot-t-i-re-puck-na. - You're so, I would have pronounced it backwards because the way my brain works. I would have said, "El-bath-giri-puck-nu." - No one would have gotten it. - But see, for me, that's how I think of it. - You're trying to actually read it backwards? - Yeah, because then I'm like, okay, "El-bath." That means it's B-A-T-H, so it backwards would be H-T-A-B. That's how my brain processes it. - I'm just trying to emulate what it would sound like if it was actually backwards. And then, obviously, the editors should play it forwards or my backwards, backwards. - You might be actually finically pronouncing it backwards, but for me, I'm like, "Okay, this is how I'd say it if it was backwards." Like, I see, I see. - Just the way our brains work differently is interesting. - Anyway, I think we can all agree, Mark wins. - Yeah, all right, yeah, weee. - I wrote down points. - Seven points are just dashed out of line points. - Oh, though, those are definitely seven, that's seven points. - No, that's pretty good. - Seven and nothing, Mark wins. - All right. - Mark, do you want to give your winner speech? - I thank you for this opportunity to showcase my amazing abilities of both pronouncing things backwards and drawing. I will retire from this podcast, henceforth, because I can go no further in my abilities as a entertainer and presenter. And I think exiting with grace is the only thing right for me at this time. I now hand it off to me for the loser's speech. - Ah, you didn't lose. If anyone lost, we lost. I was gonna be like, "Ah, I'll never give up. Ah, I may have lost this one, but I'm gonna come back stronger next time." Gotta cut out my interruptions, let 'em do a spit. - All right, you look, I may be beaten this time, and I may have lost horribly, but you know one thing about me, I never give up. I never quit. I'll be back again next week for that crown, and until I get there, I'll be back again next week for that crown. And until I get there, I'll be back again next week for that crown. I'm never giving up on myself or you or this old podcast. You can bet on me being here every time because I am not ever going to quit. Under the outro too, I don't know if we have anything else to add at this point. Yeah, that's the end. It's time for the outro to tell this works. Mark will be hosting next week. I feel like we've turned a new leaf on the One Man shows. I'll gotta be honest. I thought it was instead of being us torturing Mark. I thought it was a real showcase of Mark. I thought that was lovely. I had a lot of fun. If I'm not having fun, what are we doing here? Why are we even on this planet? Life's about fun and nothing else. Yeah, it's grimace. Yeah. Make sure you follow the podcast so you know when the episodes come out. We're down to one a week right now, but that might change. You have to look out. Also check out the merch. Distractablestore.shop I was like, ".edu?" That's not right. No. Distractable.shop Yeah. Distractable.shop. That's the one. Still haven't learned it. Follow the guys. Mark Buyer, Lord Minion 777 and Minion 777. 7. I am MySkirm. Mark hosts the next one. I think we all know what it's gonna be. We all know. For sure. Prison tattoos. No, that's not. What's the perfect crime? Yeah. Prison tattoos. We're giving each other prison tats. Uh-huh. I want a dick butt on my butt. More on my dick. Ooh. Anyway, until then, that's the end. And I'm not gonna let Wade participate in the outro at all. Podcast out That's too late. You can't do it
