2014-11-10
I've I've never seen anything trend on Twitter for as long as uh too many cooks is yes seriously doubt that no I'm serious even how long has it been trending since Thursday and it's Monday it's Monday nothing ever lasts the weekend well nothing not important i'd assume i'm thinking like all those movements and stuff that happened like it a bit government i was prompt government regimes being over to overturned yeah and then like I remember when Robin Williams thought that was maybe only two days though yeah I get over that real fast what about Harlem shake that trended you on your right was it for days I feel like I ok some kind of chart for this I like the box office numbers like that most right there's trying to be long there's definitely data on it for sure we don't have access to that data nor do I think I care there's no I carrots and you care it's well it's like strange although I think if somebody is first telling you about it now that's someone you shouldn't follow anymore if there's an old house it's like Jesus Christ I haven't hashtag winning right now break exact well you're so on the ball it's all right on your sits so out of vogue I mean if like people just discovering it now it's like how did that happen I saw it all last week while I was sick i'm like yeah maybe i'll click it sometime and you still haven't watched it oh god it's like the glue of the world right well if it was on netflix i probably would've watched it re oh right it's pretty good click a link it's just no good it's so oh and i love that a lot of people hate it i love it love it that's how i'm gonna use this is like the barometer now for whether or not i like someone i don't think hey I'm Jeff before we start having a conversation did you like too many cooks no oh this is where we part ways so you think that this is something is gonna be relevant to you in like three weeks that's a good question I don't really think so maybe I don't know probably not a bit like nyan cat like that thing was kind of neat for a while and then but that's over but no but this is a dis was a this was an event there's not an event it was a show though it was like it was on TV and it was a thing like true detective stays with me a year later it stays with me and haunts my soul and let's see what happens a couple of ways this and you completely forget some dick around three-minute buzzfeedvideo this is a required a commitment of your time they're like I'm going to make this a part of my humanity re oh do you know what I'm saying it's a feels more important than just like a viral YouTube video because this was TV first and it was like yeah it's a big production yeah you could tell they put a lot of work into yeah i think i would definitely go back to it eventually totally you know like the macarena that's what he's gonna do there are points in culture and history there are needle moving points it is my belief that this is one of those moments okay so when the setup is fantastic I can't wait to watch this tonight go you're gonna hate it I'm gonna get mixing Papa Lawrence when we see like whether or not you and I are supposed to like calm ever hang on I feel like this will be the test for that this is the Linn assess for that sounds fantastic done done great it's Monday November 10th 2014 let's start the show welcome to the 404 show kiddies my name is

in the face with the salmon cannon yeah then I covered like two months I saw that too and I was like do I bring it up in the lineup like no I'm not gonna bother because that's a little petty but you know what we did find this thing two months ago we did and I love John Oliver and that show and he's way better at that you know when he got access to the same again it so not only did he you have to go watch it so if you if you listen to our show you know about the salmon cannon you know about this thing that like manually shoots fish upstream he did this whole segment who's the season finale last night and he's like shooting salmon from his studio into all these other Studios he did it to like Letterman he did it to Jon Stewart he did it the Homer Simpson he got the simpsons to play ball that sounds like he's got some clouds he's got some friends in the biz who do we have yet less nonetheless yeah our old homeboy less we can this yeah because chuck salmon like a good wife right what do you think cool NCIS just gets a salmon in the acid NCIS days for salmon I'm sure LL Cool table play ball right I'm sure he'll get on boy I'd say so all right but let's move along go check out that video I'll link to it in the show notes um there's like Toy Story controversy hitting the internet and I know this is you know a sign of the times big deal for Monday what's going on with Toy Story and should I care alright so Pixar announced that they're gonna come out with a toy story for coming 2017 okay is that it that's the news story but what really happened though is everyone freaked the hell out because the thing is if you you've watched toy story one two and three houki I have not I don't even think I saw the first one front to back Arielle did you watch one two or three I watched one okay yes in just the side note re l didn't even know there was right I thought this was number two was the second well yeah a sequel she does he go to our story what is good idea oh the first one I don't even think I saw that they actually did make a sequel this toy story so I'll it's gonna be very two and three doing three exists in three was pretty freakin good it like at a great ending people cried people cry all the time I pics our stuff and Bridget Carey look the same to me darker day yeah that's my that was my alter ego during last week when I'm sick I'm Bridget Carey I think I knew it it is going to him phone booth it's kinda like Shazam you know just like no he just says she's am one woman does the clinking of the bracelets I'm at a fine sorry toy store your jewelry before it was story for all right so there's all these stories that people are just pissed about it cuz the toy story three was really good toy two was better three was like really great and like I'm just like leave it alone cuz you're gonna screw it up I don't believe that pic stars never screwed up anything name one movie they screwed up cars too that doesn't count know how does that not count melon cares about that series I don't care about call talking cars but I know if it messes with the whole pics are you know a timeline it doesn't actually some part of work no one cares about talking I'm sorry does quite a second that's cars franchise is stupid at best it's stupid i agree with you i totally agree with you my like Incredibles is great nemo awesome brave wasn't active brain was that Pixar to Bert who brave I'll brave with the redhead yes yes great and see it why wally was pic wally was baller come on like where we at Carson says this is a fourth movie the owner series they haven't unfortunately anything oh you mean the most successful franchise out of the hole pics are that would be correct archive that's wrong yeah why not make a notice they had a bunch of soul in the first three you want to make sure they keep it there could you imagine like let's say there was this really great I don't know crime movie let's call it The Godfather right he like part one was awesome and part two is great people argue you better agreed then you're like hey let's do it again but then you're like oh well why would you hold water absolutely what does it doesn't hold water because Godfather three terrible we all know right compares the first yet still better than a lot of crap out there of course but they did the trilogy with toy story so why not do another one they did three toy story that's the point in stopping she already got the ending of you but like what if four is great they should make a fine that's impossible that's what I'm saying anyway how could you tell way to cut off the internet freaking out like the people are tweeting like crazy like you know toy sorry for were Woody and Buzz sneak into Andy's dorm room their places ritalin and adderall with multi-item I'll get some real problems internet here we go so define post-grad Andy struggling with unemployment and student loans at Pizza Planet using a slice to dry his tears basically what is the plot of toy story for this is really no point to this thing at this at some juncture valid are I hope and I've had is the villain into that sword I like that which one this one I pair I hope an ipad is a villain that'd be funny is these toys are gonna be like jettisoned for I don't know romantic pursuits at some point maybe those breaking bad action figures could come into play they start cooking like toy meth now now I've got something now you got something a while you're better than your pencil you got it you got a grim and gritty Toy Story war with pg-13 bryan cranston keeping his role yeah as Walter White who could never die cuz he's a plastic toy exactly okay okay I like this know what it is is there like cooking drugs into action figures and the Toy Story crew you know finds out about it they want to bring these people to just the toys I like whacked out of their gourds because they are made of drugs or no they're not they're not biological so they can't take away the benefits of drugs so they could there's merely containers yeah that's it they're just other lay Stooges vessel there is laced yeah and then they gotta be like melted down so these toys are gonna lose their lives and their freaking out because they're like somebody's gonna gonna melt us down right this is airship okay there's a villain is the incinerator name like well that was okay that's actually the villain in three so really Boyet and see it well then you wrote three I do not how do you not watch these freaking movies because man you know movies I've become disenchanted with film over the last decade it's not movies for the most part not good they're not good anymore it's pics are you just said nothing they make sucks why would you watch something else that could suck versus a Pixar flick I because I like you know bigger like you know stakes I want I want there to be like drama you know I want to see like something super hilarious but for adults she'd watched it or serious drama should watch two and three really yeah it's got stuff for like adults in it alright know that the pier movies are good I I know that I know it's good i'm just lazy monsters university that was a lousy sequel there you go yeah i didn't see that either i did see the first one either I've only seen two Pixar movies your sample size is too small I know I know your praise is so out of proportion to the amount of pics are you know there's a lot of people to watch yeah anyway people are upset about it I I don't know I'm afraid that it's just Disney forcing the issue and making a potentially craptacular movie and I just don't want to see them I think you're crazy if you didn't think they were gonna make a toy story 4 for the hell who or where do you live what planet do you live on right if you didn't think toy story 4 was gonna happen these are gonna put that to bed these are gonna stop making James Bond movies okay so night comparing toy story and pics on Jan talking about like successful legacy franchises that will never go away you think think we're never gonna see Batman again that one's been around for like like 60 I know and toy stories probably close to 20 and those films are box office gold to put it to bed now would be irresponsible so you're thinking there's going to be like a second set of dick there's gonna be a second trilogy woody telling you I Tim Allen is he is he working besides that isn't he's got a show on TV right last night is ending please like a like a Republican I don't do you like you really think I was gonna watch that show i watch selfie damn and I'm not watching last man that work out it got canceled oh yeah you believe this crap yeah did you wanna know why no it's okay is it called selfie that's why Joe wasn't that bad it's there's something wrong in the world where I can tell whether or not a show will be canceled just on the name never seeing it I was like there's no way that's gonna survive eleni is gonna be cancelled well that's a difference sir Sir just curious I'd they did bro cut down the order for the show there you go it's also probably realize nebula if you watch guards the galaxy if you watched it yet which you haven't no I'm I was coming out on DVD rental soon nebula is the the lead and selfie I had no freaking idea you this will make more sense in about like six years when you watch the movie I'll see you before that and ok that'll happen ok I'm glad you're feeling better all right tell me tell me what that's good right yeah I do like okay I think sometimes yeah sometimes it's rare very rare tell me about singles day in i believe it's China in China alright so there was this to boot comments last week uh in a meeting and there's this thing China called singles day it's on a November 11th Alette 11111 get it singles singles singles it for like actual single people yeah it was da ruff like a joke originally this this holiday was about young Chinese celebrating or lamenting being single so there was be like this matchmaking parties or they would just be by themselves and started off as a joke but it was turned to like this monstrously large buying event where people buy stuff for themselves so their black friday sort of but like it kind of dwarfs cyber monday does it makes it twice as much money in the one day 24 hours means china probably this better than Black Friday to probably I haven't seen any stats compared to black friday last year Alibaba like they're the ones really that make a lot of money stand to make a lot of money they're like the Amazon of China they book 5.8 billion dollars in transactions on one day oh my god that was just last year my god they've been killing it with this but like this I had no idea this was a thing I don't know how it didn't make it to out here yet I mean we've got like Valentine's Day you like let me celebrate how much I love you but this is completely about being alone it's not it it doesn't work here because there's a black friday and a cyber monday well you don't have to have it in november right no but just making a january eleventh Rite 111 that's too close to black friday it was later to it's less than two months later this is that big a deal you put us where people are the most depressed right you just had new years right before Valentine's Day actually might be a good spot for it I think you do it to 11 you make it februari 11 three days before Valentine's Day super depressing time of year sounds good all the heart-shaped chocolates and all the teddy bears are out and you're sitting at home with nothing to do doesn't buy yourself something exactly you treat yourself singles day USA it's gonna happen yep it should be a thing like I'm just waiting for this to somehow be monetized properly here I don't have homework can pull it off this is something they can do do we look the homework to do these days make everything a freakin holiday they're gonna help with the card company yeah yeah like I mean do you think like mothers Mother's Day is so important right why cuz you got to buy a freakin card and send it to your mom you can't just call her up and say I love you mom you have to send her a car is this a mother issue you have no it's an actual thing with the mail right no okay of card issues I don't say I don't 10 cards what you're just a horrible person I call people your or see them implies you have not bought into the hallmark mentality Jack we gotta buy into one of the good guy into it no buy into it okay yes the Jack Jack Bauer approach i'm just going to say it three times until and then you whisper it and that'll work right it just did buy into it buy into it okay there we go but yes you're back on this day in china though they also eat for fried dough sticks representing the four ones in 1101 see that's the part of the holiday i could get on board with matt i'm eatin some like zeppoles on a stick i frickin i love this idea i think i think i think it's gonna be here I don't know if 211 is the right one to go cuz it's that would be more depressing I mean in November how depressed are you it's you know how many times it is depressing for a lot of people you have had some depressed holidays think we all have I think so name one see for me i don't i don't really ever know when Hanukkah is so I don't know when I should be depressed so it's it's actually great being doing it is time what about you you have depressing holidays are you um I've had a few like you know we all experience the holidays like I had a breakup right before holiday one year um the year I first moved here that was kind of a depressing holiday because alone you know well do it it just depends on where you're at in life you know I guess so maybe should have just converted to Judaism yeah of his depression would have been on a date in on it would be on a such a magnitude higher yeah because you're supposed to be really upset all the time so then we convert out so that he could realize that like it wasn't so bad this is like a holiday movie right here now this is this is a boy like a bird app clinic this is how to get people off heroin the boy who converted to not feel pain um yeah I don't know I can't really say about a depressing holiday but I think I know there is this amazing Chinese phenomenon with like dating and then they all seem that country seems to be obsessed with it right so this just plays right into it I'm not so sure I know dating and online dating in the tendering and all that is very large in America but I don't know if Americans are willing to celebrate it in the way that the Chinese people also have embraced like the anti valentine's day thing that people do on the fourteenth ever popular size how papi it's just an offshoot racing but like it starts up that way I me if you can celebrate dress this is a global economic machine this day in China I know it's crazy anti valentine's Day is not even on the radar it should be alright why not yeah I've nothing wrong i'm talking you're preaching to the choir like heytvelt it's like when you go to amazon is like ones you buy yourself something at the very end you're like hmm maybe maybe I will maybe I should it's busy you deserve it 111 alright so that's tomorrow yeah well that's actually happening it's happening right now right then water and a ton of money already I'm sure it's amazing are speaking of ton of money uh Mark Cuban went on record being asked what it's like to be a billionaire and I as found this uh important to talk about it's really important okay because you know you got billionaires in technology like Bill Gates right guys all serious and taking care of Radek ating diseases that kind of stuff lanta prints like crazy saying is not going to give all his money to his kids not gonna make them set for life that's Bill Gates right real serious dude you got Mark Cuban on the other end who I think he used to stunt like broadcast calm or something that's what he where he made his money he's asked by Rolling Stone okay what's it like to be a billionaire in the last question he says is what would surprise people about being a billionaire he goes nothing it's effing amazing and off the charts what did so humble yeah he's super humble right man Mark Cuban's one of those guys that I like love and hate at the same time why is that because he acts like this well why wait is it acts like this why would you how often do you hear these freaking super humble people like us well you know I really do find there's a lot of pressure and yell of this dog there's a lot of people like that he doesn't bother with that is like I would a jock smack he's he's in denial he's delusional if he doesn't like see the issues right who says he doesn't see issues they just actually what's it like to be a billionaires like right freaking awesome I'm sure most of it is awesome but I'm sure there's a lot of it that's terrible like what like having to constantly tell people and friends and strangers no you can't have money I think he would enjoy that actually likes what are you I'm not paying anything I mean I dude due to his wealth that's gotta be like a regular daily act he probably has a guy for that I guess so I'm sure he's like threatened all the time I'm sure he's like a target in terms of criminal activity and you know like yeah he's his money's all tied up and like if the mat we owns the Mavericks yes that's correct he's basketball sucks like I don't know so this is why this is why you actively choose not to be a billionaire problems you would have as a billionaire up constantly being kidnapped and being held for ransom you know what they say what's that what do they say what do they say about having a lot of money mo money mo problems des'ree ok that's the entirety he did he said it a long time ago he did with with big biggie in a song and mase where they sampled that old 70s I look to them for all my financial advice yeah right I like the way you guys make your career choice 90s hip-hop song is amazing mutual funds I'm not gonna mess with 10 I was lost I was at a bar on Saturday and we were listening to 90s hip-hop there was like Warren G was on a pool and what do you laughin I just haven't heard the the warren g in years I've ever dog like he was that music was so good I was good when you it's this so amazing and then you know you I don't know arielle's the guy to talk to about this I'm really upset with where hip-hop's gone is it it's not really around anymore like our be no hip-hop it's definitely a thing still doesn't know just got to dig around for it but it's just I mean like rock and roll was a thing like it was like you want to find it the middle is freaking ukuleles and crap playing over it like no that's not rock and roll stop calling that rock and roll take that banjo and ukulele get it daddy that sounds like bluegrass anyway I'm just saying I I'm waxing reminiscing about you know especially that song was so good man it was good I remember I that was like the first hip-hop something I like knew all the words to which one Mo Money mo problems okay and that's why you're not a billionaire that's why I was like gee Dan that what they're sending a very clear message they're like dude it don't matter how rich you are shit's gonna pop up yeah but you can pay off the problems that's part of the fun can't throw money that's it you know i'm pretty sure there might be a maybe I'm crazy but maybe there's like a song or like I don't know 50,000 that talk about how having a ton of money is actually lots of fun well all i can gather from how i don't know i might be wrong that's um all the other rap songs will don't know what they're talking about clearly all i know is if you have a lot of money you can kill people get away with it like Mark Cuban does he doesn't guard Markel does he know me well some people kill people get away with it if you have a lot of money seems like that's how that works okay you survived diseases that with other people wouldn't necessarily true you know and so that's you know that's it but that is just the the diamonds in the rough amidst all the more problems you will have you will pay and survive I just I just like the refreshing honesty cuz I mean he's basically visit dick all right that's right does this say that the Rolling Stone like he's not a dick he's a dick no he would mean he's not yes he is he is but like i watch it sometimes I watch shark tank and I'll be like whatever mark cuban says i agree with it you know winces dick that's okay that would be the first time so yeah I mean like that sure maybe I'm set to be a billionaire and I just have that Mark Cuban way to look at it rather than hell yeah um all right so here's the deal people uh we have to select four winners for the back to the future contest how do we select them up you and I have to do randomized back to the future hashtag Twitter work okay we'll do that but the legal crap says we can't announce them until we hear back from them but I did hear back so listen to this the guy who won the xbox one bundle yeah made it with like 12 hours to go if he waited a little longer he would he would have missed out the good thing he acted good thing he acted okay so congrats the Steve he's going to get a sunset overdrive Xbox one bundle the call of duty one will start next week i believe so stay tuned for details on how you can win a one terabyte xbox one call of duty advanced warfare bundle that's a lot of bites yeah terrifying right and then we'll announce the Back to the Future winners hopefully by the end of the week so stay tuned for that as well if you want to hear how you likely did not win that in the off chance you're now I don't know or they are not good we gotta be you were you even maybe maybe not not you it's likely none of you it's like the truth about God so likely keep on listening so we can call you a loser what are we doing I don't call you a loser right we can call what if I just winning the lottery doesn't make you a loser what if we did that instead we just don't announce the winners we're gonna need everybody who lost we just announced them and so you wait to not use your name right what do you think I that sounds like the more practical way yeah but that's gonna be nice you efficiently fit it should seize our middle name here on the show uh 866 404 cnet give us a call um someone call today just you know not making me happy about stuff but someone said someone called about with like all the you know don't throw out ingredient names that guy pissed me off and yes and then someone called up to say that starbucks secret ingredient in their coffee is salt yes after an 8-hour epitope I think everyone would have known that that was the ingredient by now like that would just be the thing starbucks sells millions of gallons of coffee every day I'm sure and they and no one up until now got the word out hey its salt no way maybe it's true I don't know you would think it would be common knowledge by now if that were the case I think this would pop up at some point in your head will somebody would tell you that this happened I don't know I don't really don't care it's like okay it's got salt big deal how much salt can't have too much salt not good for your heart you can't have too much you can't have to it you can it's not good you lead not have too much salt so do that if you want to get picked apart sentence and a sense of boys down right sounds avoids vil and then shoot us an email the 414 accom
