From superfan Superman to caring less. Yes, it's time for Oxford 3002. Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show. Hello, everybody, and welcome to Superman's favorite podcast. You can't prove that it's not unless is does he canonically have a favorite? Yeah, distractable suit. Super D duper man. Oh, I don't know enough about comic books to make this joke. I asked him and he told me we're his favorite Superman's favorite. That's us. That's right. It's distracting. You talk to Superman. Yeah, we're buddies. On the reg. I go to his fortress of quietude and I hang out with him in his cat and we talk about podcasts and is this all true? That sounds like Superman. Kinda. It's made of dry ice. The cat? The cat. Yeah, the cat. Anyway, if you've never seen Distractable before, my name's Bob and I'm the host because I won the last one. There's two other guys here. They're competing to win this one because they're going to host the next one. That's it. That's all the rules. There's no constitution or any other bullshit. It's just those three rules. Three, two. That one rule really is what matters. The people who will be competing today, as always, as only ever, are Mark and Wade. Hi. Hello. I thought we're just leaning into the viewers today. You don't have to address the listeners. You can just we could just do a sign language episode. I love the listeners because I love ears. There's an ear man. We got an ear man over here. I'm an ear man. Everyone knows this. I don't know what my voice had to change to call you an ear man. But now you're an ear man. Last ear man was in 1920s. Before talkies came on the scene. No one needs those talkies. They need the ear man. In one ear, out the other. And you'll know what I'm saying. I'd like to go in both. Whoa, I don't like what just crashed into your 1920s. I'm not a fan of it. Whatever that was. I hate it. The penguin got in there, you know? The old transatlantic Kentucky accent there. Anyway, welcome to the episode. How's it going, fellas? I have a game. I do have a game. I know everyone expects me to be unprepared because I'm always unprepared, but I'm prepared. And the more I say it, the more true it becomes. But before we do that, how's it going? You guys got any small talk? Anything going on in your cool lives? Yeah, I do. So I went through. I went through some of the most devastating, bowel-exploding, body-shaking, adverse reactions you've ever experienced. You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying? Kinda. There's been a few times. I'm familiar. What happened? I went. You hear that, guys? Look at the ghosts. Amy and I were going to travel soon, both for our honeymoon and for other reasons. So it's like, oh, we need to get some travel vaccines, right? To go to certain places, you need certain vaccines. I go to this travel vaccine place, right? I won't name it, but it was fine. The person was fine there. And I went there because I was like, I don't know what's recommended to go to these places. So it's like, we're going here, here, here, and here. What do we need? And it's like, well, let me pull up your vaccine records. And it's like, oh, you haven't had your tetanus in fucking forever. You haven't. You haven't gotten a boost to. Do you go to the doctor? And I'm like, well, I swear I go to the hospital a lot. But, you know, I don't usually. I don't usually. I guess I haven't really checked in on that. So I needed four. Four vaccines. Two new, two boosters. Well, three new, one booster or something like that. I don't know. They got the super syringe, you know, for the everything. Oh, the big juicer? Yeah, the every 10 year kind of mega one. It's normal size for Bob and I, but for you, it would look like that. Okay, come on, man. Come on, man. Come on, man. Sorry. Sorry. I hope that wheel spin doesn't come back to bite me later. Come on, man. Come on. Yeah, I'm making note of the short joke. But it was really funny. Come on, man. All right. Yeah, it was funny. So I get all mine. I take it like a champ, you know. I didn't even cry. You know, four band-aids. Bam, bam, bam, bam. Two on each side. One on each arm, right? Get home. I'm like, okay, I'll probably feel a little funky. Because when I got the COVID vaccine, you know, that was the last time I took one and I felt sick. Oh, yeah. That one always hits me, too. Yeah. Usually, I take the flu vaccine. I don't feel that bad. But I started feeling a little queasy. And then my stomach started rumbling. And then I had the worst chills I've ever had in my life. I was under three blankets, one of which was a heating blanket. And I couldn't stop. I couldn't stop shivering. It was a heat wave here in Los Angeles. It was 95 degrees outside, sun blaring. I was laying out on my driveway. I felt comfortable. Like, I could feel my body starting to cook. Like, on the, I don't want a blacktop driveway, but it's, like, darker. And I was just like, oh, wow, this is kind of nice. And then I saw I was going to throw up. I couldn't tell if it was from the sickness or from, you know, just being in the sun like that. So I go in, draw a hot bath, lay in that. And I'm just like, I can't get warm no matter what. The second, the second, like, I'm out of the heat, I just start shivering violently. So I go into a fugue state for about six, eight hours. I have no idea. Just on the couch under the heated blankets after the bath. And I was just like, and we didn't have a thermometer. I wanted to know what my temperature was. Yeah, you might have been running a fever of some kind. That's a good call. Well, I bet I was like, I must be hitting a record, right? I must be getting 122 Celsius. I got it at the high score here. I really would. That was my only thought. Because I know if you get too high of a fever, you know, you should go to the hospital. Yeah, you did. Yeah. No, hospital first, probably. Yeah. Yeah. But you should see if your body can take it first. Yeah. Yeah. So what was unfortunate is I was sleeping it off. And usually, you know, I sleep it off. But Amy started to get worried because it was going on for so long. As I was starting, I woke up and I started feeling a little better. The chills finally went away. And it was funny because three blankets, heated blanket, felt comfortable. Oh, my God, I'm dying from heat. Like, it was boom. Instantly, I woke up like, ah, sweat. Like, just the entire couch was just soaked because I was napping on the couch. Just like sweat everywhere instantly. So I must have been very, very warm. And so she goes to the pharmacy to get me some Gatorade because I'm like dying of thirst. I need some electrolytes. She comes back and we get the thermometer and I'm like, I feel fine now. At this point, I feel fine. So I'm like, it's probably going to be normal. This is check to make sure I feel fine. I feel way less chills than I did before. Hundred degrees. And that's when I felt fine. So I really must have had a high fever. Yeah. If you hit like 104, you're like, you're close to the dying part and you're supposed to really get to the hospital part. Yeah, we probably should, we'll have, we have a thermometer now. I probably should have, probably should have kept that around. Did you go rectal or would you be a, are you a wuss? Ah, one ear out the other, I go a whole, I go urethral actually is what I have for my thermometer. Ah, that's the other, yeah, that's the good way. Yeah, that's the only way to get an accurate reading, you know. Plus when you're done, you just pee it back out. It's self-ejecting, you don't have to, you don't have to do anything. It's convenient. uh so that was my weekend that's not great dude i'm glad you have a thermometer now i you might have set some kind of record i might have yeah but this is the things like i've actually had time to have like weekends to myself so for some reason the past few weekends i just haven't been able to relax and so last weekend was kind of the what do they call it the cream on the cake the icing on the cake the cream you know it's the cream you did it a high temperature for a little bit mark is mark is broke he don't work no more so uh i'm better now um i feel great i've had an upload schedule which is nice and everything else is going great the minor heat induced brain damage you know i can shrug that off and i'm i'm good man i feel like i lost a few pounds in that time when i was going through that man hold on i need to go get these vaccine can you send me what you got yeah just go to the doctor say like give me the big one good good thought big one i've been oh i haven't had i need that big syringe i think it might have been the typhoid one that got me i think it's a pokemon typhoid typhoid typhoid go typhoid mary go oh that was tasteless yeah man a little bit oh i'm sorry we can't make typhoid mary joke honestly i barely barely registered because i was trying to think of my own joke and then when you said that i was like uh i don't know if mine's gonna beat that i thought oh it evolves into typhlosion but that's a real pokemon is that funny is it not funny typhlosion yeah typhlosion really gen 2 starters send the quill the lava typhlosion it's real it's real it's real mark you smash your past this typhlosion at one point did i it's like a fire ferret i don't think i ever got its name i think i just saw pictures you looked at one you know you've seen it it's real you don't need to know a name to smash your past i guess well we're glad you're alive yeah we're talking about how you apparently almost died in the last week apparently yeah yeah man yeah that's an adventure of its own kind good job surviving thank you thank you i tried wait how did you almost die this past week i had five hot dogs in the week or in the one one day fuck yeah man uh over the course of a whole day or four hours okay this is this is either a really you know normal day sad day or or were you in a competition so i i had three conies i had three conies from skyline oh those are tiny but they have chili and cheese on them sure sure and then we uh went to my my nephew had like a birthday get together and they were grilling out molly and i didn't have a lot of time because we were gonna go see project hail mary so they were grilling out and they made the whatever people were grabbing food and there were just a few hot dogs i was like i'll just grab a couple hot dogs and as i was eating i was like wait that's what i had for lunch too oh god it's like i'm 15 again i'm gonna die later we end up being fine transition though project hail mary was a fantastic movie really fantastic movie loved the book movie also fantastic so you've read the book i have and the movie i didn't get pissed off watching the movie i actually really enjoyed it and usually whenever you read a book and immediately see a movie afterward you're like i can't believe they cut out my favorite thing but it was a really good faithful adaptation i really really enjoyed it so highly recommend i won't say anything else about it i want to spoil i recommend reading the book and then seeing the movie but whatever very good i have another update what was it that's right there it's gone oh i told bob this but mark you don't know this i finally finally last night i was laying in bed all he was asleep i finally got my hands on it what where is this going i started dungeon crawler carl oh why is it me is bob singh but thank you for the attribution well i told him already so i gotta tell you wait that's fun did you see the reddit post i was like i get excited every time they mention books and it's like i don't know i don't know i don't know i don't know yay bob for mentioning dungeon crawler carl yay wade for reading anamorphs mark you're there i guess and i'm like i read books all the time i was also excited about dungeon crawler carl mark clearly doesn't read like the other two educated ones just because all i read is warhammer 40k you know what i mean yeah no not not the man on the same page and i'm like oh my god i'm so excited about dungeon crawler carl i'm so excited about dungeon crawler carl i'm so excited about dungeon crawler carl i'm so excited about dungeon crawler carl i'm so excited about dungeon crawler carl who's bragged about reading what must be several hundred warhammer books oh my god at least yeah it's gotta be a lot i think you've read more warhammer books than i've read all books in the world probably i've read so fucking many i think that's probably true because i haven't i've read mostly law legal cases if i'm honest i don't know how to count those but in terms of books you're definitely kicking my ass i mean probably not with warhammer because like there there are a lot of books that i've read that i've read that only so many but i i read a lot in my i like reading it's how i got such a big vocabulary that's how i know so many words and use them for talking you like my words my out loud words yes yes i make them with my mouth that's a good word mouth good job reading wade i'm glad someone here is finally reading a goddamn book yeah me too my last and final which is the same word twice update i don't know how you read such a small amount like this is not a judgy thing because i i do that but the first when the first time i started reading dungeon crawler carl it was like i was getting ready for bed so it was like late at night like maybe it was 11 o'clock i was like i'll read for a little bit and then i'll get tired and i'll go to sleep and i fucking read possibly the entire book before i slept but i read all the way through like easily three quarters of the book possibly the entire thing in one sitting because i started and i just got into it and got into it and like i i'm like this and maybe you're not like this the same way but like i couldn't stop no i get that way i literally i read until like five in the morning and then i was like ah shit the baby wakes up in a couple hours i guess i should pass out well it's a lot less fun of a reason but i've had trouble sleeping more than usual the last few weeks i don't know if it's something actually going on or like many panic attacks or what it is but like i'll lay down and then all of a sudden like you know if you like are sitting still for a while and then you get up and like you run up a flight of stairs or something you feel even more out of breath like your heart's pounding more than usual i've had a thing a few different nights including night before last where i'll go to lay down and all of a sudden it's like almost like my chest is burping or something but like i'll start to feel like a weird sensation and then all of a sudden it's like oh man is my heart like what's my heart rate right now is it nine million over five hundred thousand because it's it's pretty why am i panicking i'm fine i just need to let's just focus on something else wait you're done oh okay i'm dying i stopped thinking about just think about anything else can't think about anything else focus chest bound hard fast that kept me up till eight in the morning two nights ago so i was very tired last night so i fell asleep easily because of that i've had this exact same thing not even uh exaggerating it's like as soon as i lay down specifically all of a sudden i can feel my heart and i've had an apple watch when i was doing it back before they were sued out of their ability to do such things it was all like blood oxygen that they got sued about the the the ecg thing is still works but okay cool well i would do that and i would look at my heart rate and it would be like it doesn't feel that crazy and it was only reading ever like 105 110 um which is barely elevated um and it's like the ekg looked good as much as i can read one of those and it said i was fine but yeah no i i don't know what that's about i lay down and then some nights it's just boom boom it's like it's like someone's banging a drum in my chest boom boom it doesn't hurt or anything it's just kind of like well that's weird and concerning not fun and i i i've got there's been a lot of things going on in life i don't want to bring all of it up here but i've had reasons to be like stressed about stuff but like at least on the conscious level i feel like i'm okay you know i've had my moments i've had moments of happiness i've shed tears i've dealt with some of the things that we're dealing with maybe it's my subconscious or i don't know but the heart is just the one thing i it scares me probably the most because i've had some family history of like heart attacks and stuff so i'm like man hope my heart's okay so the heart pounding just really compounds it becomes a vicious cycle of like now i really can't calm myself down so well do you have an apple watch wade because i i don't know if it would help you but i would recommend that yeah i do i haven't i haven't used it i should probably use it again but for both of you what you're describing sounds like a thing i'm familiar with it sounds like um atrial even a thing that would manifest on an ekg especially on the apple watch because it's not exactly like a diodes all over your body type of one but that is not necessarily a bad thing that can happen but also if you're concerned about it the doctor can check it out pretty easily they will give you like a full diodes all over your body ekg get the full readings like it's real easy i think i'm going to i think i'm going to do that if it is that because and i'm familiar with it it kind of feels like you're like oh is this a heart attack my left arm isn't numb so it must not be a heart attack yeah yeah no so i would say two weeks ago a week ago last week sometime i don't remember exactly how long ago i had this happen like two nights in a row i like went downstairs for a little bit ate something just kind of like changed my location changed the way i was sitting and stuff and it went away i went back upstairs was fine able to fall asleep but for whatever reason night before last nothing i did could make that go away so from like 1:30 in the morning till a little after 8:00 and just had that sensation so i think i'm gonna have to call and go in and make sure there's nothing else going on but i've never i've never dealt with like extreme extreme anxiety except for like in specific scenarios you know some people just have anxiety the closest i could relate is how people have described like panic attacks this felt like a mini panic attack almost but like i didn't think those lasted for hours i guess i don't know i never really experienced it yes mark is raising his hand teacher teacher i have your diagnosis i've looked up online i've put in all your symptoms you have paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia that sounds like a lot of bad things grouped together like that yes you don't want to be paroxysmal oh good you don't want to be supraventricular paroxysmal yeah p-a-r-o-x-y-s mall wow what a word the heart's natural pacemaker and cyanoatrial node generates electrical impulses that tell the heart to beat but in a person with psvt you the heart's steady rhythm undergoes sudden periodic paroxysmal oh that's what disruptions an errant electrical signal from above the ventricle supraventricular overrides the cyanoatrial node's normal signal and creates a series of very fast heartbeats tachycardia the vast majority of psvts are not life-threatening although in rare circumstances they can be dangerous which is why people who experience repeated bouts of a racing heart should tell their doctor you practically are done that now i guess so i i'm good i don't need to go in now except for telling your doctor yeah what web doctor has been told oh that's true that's true internet save him i will also say the pan the feeling like it's a panic attack thing it can feel like oh i'm panicking oh my heart is racing but it can actually be an inverse connection you can have like a physiologically induced feeling of like a panic attack because what's happening to your heart is making your heart race and then that triggers a bunch of other stuff that that leads you so it's not necessarily like oh i'm so anxious it's making my heart race it could literally be like oh i'm iron deficient or oh like oh something else is happening it's making my heart race that is causing me to have these associated like emotional physiological reactions that feels like a panic attack or feels like anxiety or whatever it's probably fine but maybe ask your doctor and get it scanned maybe that will help maybe that will help you feel less worried about it at least propel fitness water with gatorade electrolytes zero sugar and vitamins propel hydrates better than water to help you get the most out of your workout and get back to your best self what propels you propel with gatorade electrolytes i'll go get checked out there was a particular family event that occurred and then it happened shortly thereafter so i figured it was probably like subconsciously stress induced but maybe it's just coincidence it's either way i should probably get it looked at but it's been not fun they'll tell you you're stupid and take your money don't worry about it i'll tell you you're stupid and take less money i'll tell you you're stupid for free am i in an ad can i pay you to tell you you're stupid is this the guru and then whatever mark's title was again oh stupid are we that's why that's why i didn't read as much dungeon crawler carl because last night i was finally tired enough to sleep i mean that's fair i guess whatever as the literate one of the podcast i expect more from you but it could have been that the book was so exciting you just couldn't your body was just i was only going to read the first chapter and i ended up reading i think six so like i did read more than i anticipated because i didn't want to put it down but sometimes you get like especially early late in a book it's impossible to stop because like just everything the stakes are always so high but like early on every now and then you reach a point in a book where you're like okay i really want to know what's next but i feel like things are only going to escalate get harder i've got to stop here or else i really won't be able to stop and that's where i was with the book i was like okay this is i've gotten through the the intro tutorial phase now whatever happens it's probably gonna get crazy let's stop here dude gets nuts especially the later books just gets nuts and more nuts and then nutzer and somehow nuts here yeah i can tell you that feeling of like oh i'm finally through the tutorial phase you keep having that and it's one of the things i like about the series is i feel like there's a constant thing of like okay now we're through like the prologue now we know what's happening and then you'll read a few chapters and you're like no this is still prologue there's still like how is it getting crazy anyway it's fun you guys want to play a game sure it's easy yeah i'll play easy game we've played it before oh no wait no hold on hold on no no no no no there's no questions it's not like that this is a different kind of easy game 100% it's a different kind of easy game 100% it's a different kind of easy game 20 easy remember this paragraphs and recite it by memory uh close while singing and rhyming oh god no not not that close oh okay honestly i had several titles written down but i kind of want to call this one the easy 3000. do you guys remember when we played the game with the oxford 3000 the words and the saying the backwards oh yes yeah yeah say set you see see that's not that's just spanish say yes backwards yes backwards backwards backwards backwards backwards backwards backwards say say say adios bios but backwards say yeah say say yeah say yeah this is the easy 3000 how well do you guys remember that game pretty good remember the words that you had to say backwards during that game so do we get points if we do it was in october so i'd be really surprised if you did anyway don't worry you pro you probably don't have to say most of them back backwards because i did come up with a new thing can we say them sideways instead of backwards and that doesn't make sense say it sideways say it sideways no say a word say any word sideways and i'll give you a point yeah yeah that's it any that's the word any sideways i got it i got it i got it each other yeah for the listeners mark just stood up and physically turned his head sideways ah damn it you know what that's a point i said what i said creative genius this is kind of like a mix of a bunch of games because that's all i do is look at what i've already done and try and find ways to rehash that so it's kind of like the oxford 3000 if you happen to remember those words if anything sparks maybe that will be helpful to you the game that we're going to play today with this is not dissimilar to a game they used to play friendship no okay i think it was i think it was was yeah well and i'm allowed to lie to you the game we're going to play today with the words yeah okay it was it was but i can tell you whose word it was so there if you're ruining stuff already i told me to tell you i did not i was not not then not right at the moment okay i could get higher pitch too whose lines anyway they used to think play a thing called direct director anyway they would do a scene and then one one of the cast members was a director and they'd come out and be like do it french and this is kind of like that but if you had to guess a word there's going to be a word you're the person giving the clues is going to be allowed to offer one word at a time as a direction so it's kind of like hotter colder but if mark has a word and wade starts and wade is like friendship mark can be like science here or frencher or higher whatever you say any word you want if you think it will help and we have to say it like that not more french i mean that's my idea it's not i'm not gonna like dock your points if you get creative with it but the the notion is it's like the direction right and they're always like do it more like a noir film or whatever like the idea is for it to be kind of like that you're supposed to give clues but they have to be short and you can't just be like the word is this say this word like you will get in trouble if you do that anyway every time i explain my game idea lately the more i say about it the more i'm like man this is a stupid idea oh i shouldn't have committed to this but it's too late now i'm gonna flip a coin to see who goes first okay and one of whoever goes first they say a word and the other person has to guide them to the correct word by the frencher type clues that's it yes whoever goes first guesses any word that they want and the other player has to give them direction one word direction at a time to try and basically hot and cold their way toward the correct word lady is wade lion is mark that doesn't mean anything about who you are that's just how i decided in the moment editors make me a lion mark's a lion lion goes first ah it hurts it's painful oh what are they doing to me it's too bad that bit of the cowardly lion so mark is guessing first wade i'm gonna give you your first word it's too bad that bit of the cowardly lion so mark is guessing first wade i'm going to give you your first word it's too bad that bit of the cowardly lion so mark is guessing first wade i'm gonna give you your first word to play with okay oh that's not the piece i just looked at my paper and saw a bunch of other words it was like what did i write down oh no no that's a different word so i'm not acting any of these am i or no you're just guessing you're trying to guess the word and wade wants you to guess the word so i start with the word and he'll guide me if you if it helps these are all words from the oxford 3000 list of words that does not help there's approximately 3 000 options that it has to be from but wait i sent you a chat with your first word and mark when you're ready avalanche People-ier. Sure. Stampede. I like this already. This is going to be fun for me. Antonym-ier. Standing room only. What was that? You heard me. You heard me. It's hyphenated. Standing room only. Yeah. Standing room only. People-ier. Think of the same clue twice? Sure. If you think it will help, yeah. Theater. Individual-er. Bathroom. Sphincter-er? No. You sure? You sure about that? No, Colin. That's wrong. Are you sure? I have no idea what you think that's going to. I don't know, man. Your clue is sphincter-ier. Maybe it will help you. Maybe I'm wrong. Diarrhea? Muscle-ier. Butt. Arm-er.

Well, you said bathroom, and I was like, how do I get from bathroom to our body? It's a muscle. The sphincter's a muscle. You could have muscle weakness. Can you have sphincter weakness? You sure can. Yes, you can have sphincter weakness. That just doesn't. That doesn't make any sense. Well, I didn't know how to get there, man. Can't have sphincter surgery. Sphincter spasms. Listen, we can judge, but I did. I drove the car. I marked the directions, and he drove the car there. If sitting in the back seat while the accelerator is stuck to the floor and just ending up accidentally crashing into the correct answer counts as driving the car. You drove it there, baby. I did. I'm going to be so much worse at the other side of this. Have you ever seen that video, the rally car driver where the assistant's like, you have to listen to my calls. Left, left, sooner, tight left, left, right, turn right. It's very funny. I have not. I don't know which one's which here in that one, but that's what it felt like. Well, Mark, now, Wade, it's your turn to guess, and Mark, I'm going to send you a word. I'm ready. On your guess, Wade. Apple? Less shmeagle. Apple. The word is apple like Patrick Warburton. How did you get that? That's so specific. All right, less shmeagle. Mountain. I see how this is going to be difficult. All right, okay. Opposite. Valley. Good. Okay, I'm going to talk to you like a director. Oh, yeah, you know how to do that. Where's your hat? Does your hat help? Hat. Hat! Damn. Not that hat. So we're at valley, right? Okay. Lower. Crust. More ethereal. Hold on, I'm going to look up ethereal. So it's just Wade endlessly Googling everything Mark says. I didn't know. It's like mog, moga, whatever you said before. Mogging. We've talked about mogging. Lower than the valley, more ethereal. Or esoteric might be a better word for you. More esoteric. Now, Wade's a philosophy major. He knows what esoteric means. I know esoteric. Of course I know esoteric. Tunnels. Back up a step. Valley. Crust. Valley crust. Back up another step. Mountain. Oh, wait. Fuck. Valley. Yeah. Yes, sir. All right. Yin and yang. I don't like that word. Forest. Back up a step. Valley. One. Mountain. Forward. Crust. What? No. Fuck. Valley. Mountain. Valley. Crust. Valley. Valley. Stay valley. Now, back up. Back. Just, just, just listen to me. I'm your director. Just listen to, listen to me. Don't listen to the rules. Listen. Back. Valley. Oh, fuck off. For the listeners who just scooted away from his microphone. Guess Mark told him to back up. I got you, boss. Trust, trust, trust, trust, trust. Trust her. Trust her. Back. Valley. Back. Back up. Valley. Back up. Uh-huh. Mount. Not mountain. So, back up. What? What do you mean? What do you mean not? I think he wants you to say mountain, buddy. I did. He said no before. Mountain. Mountain. No, you didn't. You said valley. And I said good. Go back. Just, please. Please. Mountain. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Forward. Valley. Yes. Okay. Back up. Mountain. Go down. Valley. Good. Now. Yin and yang. Mark, I see exactly what you're getting at. And I can tell you, I think we both know that's not going to work here. Come on. It's my best chance. He can do it. He can do this. I'll give Mark an assist because I'm talking so much anyway. He's having you go backward and then forward. Forward. Yeah, I see that with the mountain, the valley, the mountain, the valley there. You're getting Yang. They go together. Conceptualize it. We go from mountain to valley, from mountain to valley conceptualize it. Yeah. I'm just trying to figure out if it's an area in between. If it's the concept of the whole hole, the yin and yang, they come together to form a whole, a whole circle. Our brains work very differently. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right, you're right. All right, let's, let's, uh, uh, uh. More differentiator-er. Oh! I don't believe it, you weird. Mountain, valley, mountain, valley, yin and yang, uh, uh, uh. Altitude? All right, let's shake it up. More negi. no, not. Oh, no, he's already hitting you with the you. I gotcha, I gotcha, I gotcha, I gotcha, I gotcha. I'm scared. Try something different. Any, anything-er. Any, anything-er. Darkness. Love it. Beautiful. That's great. Is that my clue? No, I'm complimenting you. This is not your clue. Oh, thank you. Such a good choice. That's a great choice. He's not patronizing you. It's a good choice. It's just how Mark is. Okay. Lumen-er. Ooh. Gray. Good. It's good. This is good. I don't know how I'm gonna get there. We're gonna get there. We gotta believe. There's genius in that gray. There's genius. It's not easy being on either side of this, I'm learning. Pot of gold. Pot of gold. Pot of gold. Gold-er. Oh. Okay. Yeah. Uh-huh. I'm trying to think like, wait here. Supernatural? Afterlife-er. Ghost? Let's back up. Let's back up. Mountain. Yeah. Okay, good. All right, now go forward. Gray? Fuck. Whoa. Whoa. I got you. be on the wrong track. Let's just, let's go back to what we were doing before. Okay. swear we can get there okay how far back am i going mountain or like mountain just mountain mountain valley right okay all right so i want to explain so badly but i won't because i would betray it lower hell good good very yin yang very yin yang i love that lower devil okay you're getting it right you're getting it you're getting it bottom er uh cavern cavern feel it so i want you to feel that feel that torture no oh no oh god okay lower than hell uh bottom great great great great staying right there but mixing it up rock bottom mix it up yeah oh man uh base conceptualizer no don't give up you're right there you're right there you're right there you're tickling it i believe in you hell bottom bottom of hell base every word i'm thinking of takes us further away creation ah wait yes architecture architecture yeah architecture god building are we naming specific buildings in hell because i don't know the answer to that get out of hell oh get the fuck out of hell okay i'm leaving hell leaving hell base foundation foundation's good i like that foundation is good okay all right house here basement description here no story with a pool and a nice fence good but succinct here uh the suburban oh a trendier trends here stuc stucco stucco stucco uh wade's not exactly up on his architecture trends i guess frank lloyd right huh well that's okay okay frank lloyd right i'll take that opposite or opposite uh skyscraper no no no frank lloyd right got a lot of cantilevered what you call it and doohickeys and it's got many many details and things uh modern okay yes yes oh my god continue your uh future uh more or not more but you know continue your again or what's the term for like the simple uh empty bullshit i don't know why it's so funny oh man it's right there oh man i'll just black down a little bit minimalist okay okay this is great this is great i mean i would love that but minimalism oh i'm really good at this abstracter abstracter oh no oh no oh hold on hold on oh i'm feeling you uh mountain no hold on abstracter than minimalism less conjugation min what'd you say mini miniature uh men miniature mini minimal minimize minimize oh minimalizing minimalists minum minimalizing i don't know what you guys want from me by that close you're so yo oh my god you have no idea minimum minimum it's minimum minimum i think the game here is how many of these can you do before you just die i would have never gone there from mountain and valley yin and yang i i understand where you're going now but i don't think i would have ever connected that what's that architecture style where it's real plain what's that word for that you know the sad thing is is whenever we do some architecture i thought of it i was like yeah there's that one where you don't own like anything and it's real simple i can't think what that's called i'll just move on to a different one yeah the sad thing is is whenever we do some architecture i thought of it i was like yeah there's that one where you don't own like anything and it's real simple i can't think what that's called i'll just move on to a different one you know the sad thing is is whenever we do some architecture i thought of it i was like yeah there's that one where you don't own like anything and it's real simple i can't think what that's called i'll just move on to a different one frank lloyd wright oh my god oh man i just couldn't think of the word for it that's fair that's fair that's fair i was really yeah because i was like okay mountain opposite valley all right let's start down feeling this positive negative thing good job buddy you did good you got me there it's the easy 3000 man all you have to do all right i'll get him to the next one i'll get him on the next one oh yeah mark you have to start it that's right i also need to look at the word okay any words you want buddy does he have it i got it pillow i see one path here that is so easy please don't fumble this i will i will fumble this but like in a way that i think is great okay good more face more face more face did i send you the right word hang on you did just so trust me trust me i don't trust you continue face pillow i don't want to give it away too much like i feel like there's a word i could say that would really give it away but you're allowed to succeed quickly it doesn't have to be painful the joke is not that it has to be painful it's that it is painful sometimes it's allowed to be as easy as it seems that's okay oh enabler oh edible i mean fine marshmallow healthier macron healthier more yogurt more organic organic yogurt more natural milk more vegetation do you know words yeah man cotton or edible carrot oh okay sweeter rhubarb more tree fruit more exact apple boom what a great run more face more face more face pillow you lay on the back of your head you need to get to the face and then then what goes in it i can't help the way my brain works wait the word that you wanted for a thing that was edible sweeter and more vegetation is called fruit word is fruit you could have gone pillow fruitier he might have just said apple because the top three fruit you guess is like apple banana and strawberry that's like cheating and we don't want that i guess that's fair i just thought i thought fruit was just too big of a jump from pillow see this is the thing though i'm like it can be easier and wade says can it though yeah i guess okay i guess in my brain like i'm trying to play off the word he used to like get there rather than just like fuck whatever you said it's a fruit like that i don't know that felt i felt like i had to guide him from pillow more than just and i appreciate that i appreciate that i do i mean you can do that okay well we've been playing wrong i think at least i have well look that's this is the glory of these games that i make you guys play and don't ever let force myself to participate in you can play it however you want i'll just wait mark and i will remember one day and we'll make you play yeah i don't i doubt it you're probably right we'll think about remembering wade guess a word oh okay mark you ready yeah car a liver giraffe shorter corgi bigger sheep bigger buffalo smaller german shepherd actually i retract my smaller for some reason i thought of a rhino when you said buffalo buffalo were pretty big i don't know how but i don't know how they compare size wise more aggressive i'm thinking of buffalo hippo more aggressive lion american ear bear oh bear i knew i could tell you were stuck in africa i could tell you were just like in this in the savannah just except for sheep and corgi that's true but if it's bigger than that it's in africa i did intend to do another round but i i don't know oh we're so quick now we're on a roll yeah well i sort of i didn't realize the one would be the longest round and then everything else would be so easy it turns out getting me to minimal was a problem minimum fuck are you guys up for one more do you have the energy to do with another round whatever i can do another wade i am sending you your word now you get to be on this side of one of these no no don't have fun cloud more man-made smog more technological power plant more personal home generator more entertainment tv more screen theater more resolution vr more ratio more ratio is that what you said you sure i did okay all right you know uh camera more viewing window more display monitor more options microscope that was more than one word more monitor uh i want so desperately to help you wade i could see i could see it display more specific lg 4k oled display monitor more 4k 8k more specific more options i'm trying to think of words i've not used i think i used both of those imax more changing uh two three five widescreen more what do you mean more more okay okay okay all right every every film and display term i know i'm just gonna start rattling them off okay viewfinder did i say the same thing twice bob yeah give the direction you want man more ratio what do you mean more rich the one way to get here i don't know aside from the fact that it's not working i think that's actually not a bad direction wade and i'm gonna laugh at you either way but i i can see the vision our brains just work so different split screen more 1080 high definition more colon oh fuck that's so how does that seem so stupid but actually makes sense i don't know if you know if you know the answer but not if you don't i know it's so hard okay okay okay okay i'm getting it i got it uh-huh 16 by nine uh more term 1920 by 1080 less number four by three uh more relationship 25 60 by 1440. all right we're gonna try this a third time more ratio that'll do it yeah there you go get him right to it mark use everything that you know about those things you were saying everything i know about those things i was saying especially some of the numbers some of the numbers but maybe only the shorter numbers shorter numbers okay all right one to one more perspective oh god i feel like i have the one that will get in there just say what i'm thinking say the words i'm thinking quick i don't know what word you're thinking Less specific or words. Propel Fitness Water with Gatorade Electrolytes, zero sugar and vitamins. Propel hydrates better than water to help you get the most out of your workout and get back to your best self. What propels you? Is it in the room with me? Is it in my room? Less crazy. Is it in my room? I don't know if this is the kind of game where I can answer those kinds of questions. You know what, man? Just play the game however you want. I believe in you. I feel like I'm leading with the wrong. Rewind. All right, rewinding. One to one. More general? Square. Different term. Aspect ratio. First word. Aspect? Aspect, yeah. It's aspect. I've been trying to get you to aspect from ratio for a long time. More ratio. More specific. More numbers. I thought that was a good clue. You were giving me ratios. I just couldn't get you to tell me that they were ratios. But you said more ratios. I gave you more ratios. I know. How else do I tell you? What's the term to get you just to tell me the term? More ratios? Well, Bob, what was the word you had in mind? When he was like, 16 by 9, 4 by 3, 1 to 1, I would have been like, the more word. And he might have said square, but that was where you had to work from. Take him directly from the aspect ratios he's listing. Because you kept pushing him to be like, more ratios. And then he kept going from aspect ratios to resolutions. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm going to stop you there. I said more ratios. Yo, there was never a plural. Whatever, whatever. Once he got away from the ratios, then you were like, describe it. And he was like, the shapes? The resolute? You needed to catch him on the ratios and then be like, that but words. Aspect is just such a hard word to get someone to. That is a tough one. Yeah, I can see why that's tough. Whenever you were listing off all the aspect ratios, I was like, we just need to get from specific to general. I get it. I get it. I see. Yeah, I don't. That was tough. That was tough. I always sort of forget to keep in mind that I designed these games to be fun for me because that's my main motivation. But I don't want you guys to kill each other. And I feel like I'm creating a tension. I don't feel any kind of tension. I more so feel like I'm failing to describe accurately. I'm like, we're right there. I just don't know how to. I don't know how to slide him sideways. Listen, Mark and I have been on both sides of this. We understand the hard parts of describing and guessing. Okay. He's given me. He's given me my word. Oh, okay. I think we can get this. All right. Pizza. More location. Restaurant. More vague. City. More vague. I wish that my brain was functional so I could think of the term I'm trying to think of. I'm just going to say country. That's not what I'm hoping to go for. More vague. Land. Careless. Place. Careless. There. Careless. Somewhere. More options. Someplace. More options. Wherever. Holy shit, man. Oh, my God. I don't know how, but like that. I was with you. I don't know. I don't know. You guys just locked in so hard on that one. That was great. That was great. I think Mark has had to give clues about 10% as much of the time as he has had. I had to be guessing. You got bear and wherever so fast. I think you gave us an easy one with bear and apple, but you know, minimum and wherever are such out there concepts. What were the ones I had? I've had. You had weakness, apple, and aspect. Sphincter weakness. Weakness and aspect. Those are tough to get to. Those are tough. Yeah. Mark had minimum and wherever, which I feel like I thought would be. To be honest, I don't know how we got to wherever I just didn't. I ran out of terms. I was like, what else? See, that was a strategy I thought was going to happen a lot more. Mark got you headed with some momentum, and then he was just like, care less, even less, less carry. And that like drove you so far in the right direction that he got you. It just made a lot of progress really quickly. I can't deny. I was, I was out there and I was like, I can't care too much more. He told me to care less. And I'm not gonna lie. You both lighting up at some. Where had me thinking some or where we're part of the word. It was amazing. It was, you guys looked like the sloth in that one was Zootopia where he was like slowly smiling. I hope other people than me enjoy that, but I love that was a good time. Oh, I'm sure they, I'm sure they will. Wade, you were in the points for what happened tossing on a short joke, which we'll see if that comes back to bite you. See if your body can take it about Mark, not taking care of himself when he probably almost died from a fever. You're a wiener man. You got a point for weakness, Apple and aspect, but you also got points during the gameplay for, oh, what's that architecture style where you're, there's nothing and it's I was like, what are the odds? That's the word. I just can't think of. And also you got points for more face, more ratio, which gives you a total of 10 points, but one of those is a short point. So we'll see what happens with that. Mark, you earn points for. Super syringe cooking yourself in the heat wave. You survived just impressive. You're an illiterate loser because Wade and I both read books. You said a word sideways, which I didn't think was possible. You also got points for minimum bear and wherever, and I gave you a point for let's go back a step forward. That gives Mark a total of nine points off the rip, which I. I got to be honest. I felt like I was giving Mark more points, but I think it was just more painful to give Wade points because most of his were from thank you. I was laughing. I was laughing so much that it hurt. And also my brain hurt. Anyway, let's see how many bonus spins we have today. I always get to feel so good about my success on this show too. Spinnerinos. Well, that couldn't possibly be bad for me. Couldn't be. No way. I am going to add coolest illness since last episode. Who are you going to give it to? Mark's crazy fever or my crazy heart? It's probably the fever this time. Almost dying is pretty cool. We'll see if I make it back for next week. Otherwise, I hope I get that point. Hey, if you actually die, I feel like that point's yours by default for the rest of eternity. That makes sense. Too bad, Bob, you can't die. You're immortal. I know. I put a point on the board I'll never get. Unbelievable. Spin number one of two. And the words are so small, I can't really tell what it's going to be. Never mind. Will to live. I mean, I can't tell if Mark surviving a very serious illness is a demonstration of his will to live or the fact that you did not seek out any medical attention or even take your temperature when you had a severe fever is a demonstration of your lack of will to live. I would've. I would've. Really feel like we're just writing off my heart issues here, but yeah, that's fair. I don't think there's a question of your will to live, though. Clearly, you wanted to live. You were concerned about living. If Mark's thing was a demonstration of his will to live, I think he survived a potentially more serious situation and had more will to live. I don't know. That feels like a stretch. If that's too close, we can spin again, but I feel like. You're the judge. My heart wants to give it to Mark because I'm heavily biased towards him. Hey, is that an insult to me because you said your heart? Yeah. Take that. Okay. I mean, that just ties us up, so honestly, that makes it worse for you in the long run. I'll take it. Nothing bad can happen. There's still another spin. Someone has to get a point. It certainly won't be me or the listeners or viewers. Amy has a point potentially on here or something. What about minus 7% of one man show? Let's not do that. Oh. Oh. Oh, shit. None of us lied, though. A short joke point is not a lie point, is it? No, it's a separate thing. Is this a re-spin or no point? Usually, it's the judge's choice, but. Oh, I know which one I would prefer it to be. I can tell you that. Oh. Mark, hold on. Yeah, Mark, do you want to talk about this? We could. It's only a 23% chance of a one man show right now. That's not that huge. Yeah, it's only basically a one in four almost. I mean, I would 100% re-spin if it were me. I'm going to re-spin. Yeah, I don't know why I was leaving my fail to you guys. I don't want to do that. Hey, it's the one that we fucking torture, Mark. Oh. I think it's probably Mark today, isn't it? Oh, wait. Yeah, actually. Yeah, I think it's already a gimme. Actually, yeah, you do kind of just blend into your. Oh, but wait. Distractible poster. Blue. But by quantity, I think I've got this. Yeah, I think Mark has that, actually. I don't think we. Oh, those are, like, totally identical. Those are totally identical. Yeah, it's definitely. Okay. Well, point to Mark, which means Mark wins. Yay! The come-from-behind victory. He deserves it. Oh, I didn't even see you pull hold of the coin. I didn't recognize any of us saying that word we're not supposed to say unless we mean it during this episode, but I'm sure it happened. You should have made it one of the words we have to get to. That'd been really funny. Oh. That's a good idea. That is way funnier than anything I put in my game. I'll forget to do that when we do Oxford 3000 and 2. Uh, anyway, congratulations, Mark. Uh, Wade, would you like to give your loser speech? I want to say, aspects and weakness, very difficult words, but you know, Mark and I got there. Minimum. And whatever the other words are I had to get to with Mark, bear. And then that third one, tough. But we did it. We did it. Wherever. And I just, I'm proud of us for succeeding in a very difficult challenge with some really difficult words that have at least, two syllables. So, I leave today with my head held, held, hung, my, I'm hung, and high. You sure are, man. You sure are. Oh, I meant to throw this in before, Mark, before your winner speech, your glorious winner speech. I did want to give the context of those were all words from the original Oxford 3000 video, but I switched whose words were whomst's. I think all the words that I had Mark guessing, Wade previously had to guess, and vice versa. So those were all words we had previously dealt with. Not a single one of those came back to mind at all as I saw them. Yeah, well, I thought on the long shot that one of you could remember, free point for you because you deserve it. Mark, winner's speech. I am very happy to claim this win, uh, more for myself and less for my opponent. Cause as the winner, I naturally would be happy for myself. And honestly, that's the natural order of things. Um, as you can see, I read a lot of books and I know a lot of words and I use them sparingly, which is a word I read in a book. Thank you for the win. Congratulations to Mark. You will, uh, thusly be hosting the next one. Make sure you check out distractible.shop. There might be merch there. There's probably merch there.
