The 404 Ep. 1024: Where winter came a little late this year

2012-04-03
it's tuesday april third 2012 thank you sir or ma'am for tuning into the 404 show on Sina TV I'm Jeff Bakalar and I'm Justin you and this is the show where winter came a little late this year it did about one year late just a little late for my Scott yeah for both of us yeah and of course we talked about winter coming yeah we're talking about Game of Thrones yes the gut I feel like we are just so behind the times because yeah I don't know man it took us forever to get into this stupid show ready I know it feels like um I feel that the first time I watched what's it called Good Will Hunting that was I think in 2008 to took your wall yet took me a while to watch that one and then afterward I loved it so much I was like oh my god i didn't see Good Will Hunting I guess 10 years ago reason don't you love I hate being that guy hate being the guy who's like hey I've discovered something you all told me about it ready right but that's the case with Game of Thrones call it what you will I don't know how I don't know why I don't know why I didn't watch it I don't know how I didn't watch it it was one of those shows that i knew i was supposed to watch right never heard so much about it my brother was like oh you gotta watch it it's so good it's right up your alley HBO does amazing stuff which they do I agree with that I think they make amazing things right save for a few shows stay for a few cancellation will bring you you really don't have an excuse because i know you do the HBO Go three thing on your iPad yeah you really watch that anywhere and I subscribe and I submit your nature subscriber yet but I don't have cable so it's a little bit more difficult for me to watch how are you watching it uh which meant that I had to go to read the books okay I read all three books over the weekend you read the good book yeah that's what you did but Gail God Game of Thrones is a good good show and we got a lot of catching up to do cuz i think the first episode aired on sunday it did so sunday was the first episode of season two all right um I think you and I are about the same amount of episodes through the first season we've I've got less than I watched episode 4 yet new ones you're one episode ahead i just finished season 3i so showed that little girl sword fighting ok you can tell you compel idea warrior ok I'm pissed ok refer I'm there's one thing that I think is just funny yeah I think we're gonna agree on this that his name is Ned Stark is that ok yeah so that's part of it is dead Hey look at how many badasses do you know named Ned let's be honest that's true ok the only other net I can think of from popular culture is Ned Flander right and that guy ain't beheading anybody you know i mean yeah he didn't have a beard either he doesn't have a beer but man oh man Ned Stark on your name's Ned ahead as in Ned Ned Stark when were these books are written uh I don't know actually that's a good question because not long enough to make Ned cool yeah I'm not sure there was enough time even in the past right Ned was like an authoritative badass name yeah okay so that's what I was gonna bring up to is there's a lot of weird anachronisms in the show like for example the cussing oh yeah so attaboy I mean it was at a big topic of discussion when the show came out last year I don't know I never really heard about that before watching the show and all of a sudden they're just like yeah we're gonna go the F word yeah we're gonna like f these whores like wow it's bad back then it is it me or does that seem just a little awkward you know why it's awkward because they did the same thing but as a joke in your highness right Danny McBride right that's right they would actually say the f-word yeah maybe like oh is like what that word didn't exist back then especially not as a verb well don't say back then because game thrones the way I understand it takes place in sort of an alternate universe Oh way that explains it but I didn't know that I'm just assuming that because they're not I mean they are it's like middle earth where it's an Earthian sort of world right i called the realm um but they do say the word world also yeah uh but the the geography is is unfamiliar and of course the seasons are strange to where I'm right you on the crown of the chronology I don't know when winter is actually yeah you know I just know that it's really long and it kills people no the winter is not a reference to the season no it is not the winter is a reference to what they they say winter is going because they're from Winterbottom or whatever no your uh no I don't think you're right yeah I am right no I think I'm pretty sure winter is like this 10 year long season where it gets really cold I thought it was a metaphor no it's not a winter of their doing quenched when that that old woman is is knitting in front of uh what the hell's a kid's night whatever ibrehem ngam ngam Rob Ron bon bon prom-prom bond Brian will call him uh she's like oh winters real bad to get all my ancestors cuz it's like super cold and all the wolves come and they eat our faces off yeah that's what don't look it up i'm looking at all don't because they're okay so i think it's because stark Ned Stark yeah and it's all dead he's from Winterfell I know he's from Winterfell yes castles in Winterfell because it's close to the waltz in the north I think that's why they say winter is coming out I'm I'm pretty sure you're wrong okay I don't and I'm scared to look at the chat room because chess justice is in your butt which is winter lasts like seven to ten years or something like that yeah I love all the different races I love like that the Thraki right now they're like uh you know they're there I guess they're like the other from the warm climate so they're like there's killer in 10 right they're all you know looking good and you know jack out of their minds right and then I like you know the people from the north everything is real ray and glue male pale son just love that diversity I think it's great I think I mean and you know if you everyone compares it to Lord of the Rings I just think because it's like this they all seem to have the same names yeah I mean well not Ned no not any no head start uh Caitlyn I don't think they're very similar Santa yeah but I know maybe it's like the opening credits where it's just that like fly through through the through middle-earth is what it feels like fonts are the same you know like uh Ned's brother the uncle that works at the wall oh yes Rob no that's what the king was robbed yeah there's a way which guys the key is not the key night min the Night Watch one yeah yeah the night watchman's name Rob are you sure yeah yeah the king is named what's the King's name this too many care too much stuff yeah and that's another thing I want to bring up I don't want to get too deep into in case people haven't seen we're really not ruining anything but I think it's amazing in just four episodes they've introduced us to roughly 20 characters yeah it's kind of a lot to remit so largely with their unique names too and I saw what I feel like I'm learning at all in a reasonable amount of time it's completely indigestible to or or to even assume that you're going to learn everyone's name in their motives and the kind of person they are we're just three hours of television other both named Rob other both well that's that's good way to go or whatever the hell it was what is that they're both named Ron it's really weird anyway i watch and in the in the kid the Joffrey kid yeah one of curbs there i don't i don't know if i'll use that verb but yes i agree i mean-- pretty bad yeah i just like he didn't even have to open his mouth you just take a look at the kid you're like all man I know you're gonna be bad right Joffrey Joffrey I'm really pissed though because i was reading an interview in The New York Times that came out careful Peter Dinklage and I just amazing a dink is amazing yeah I think he after watching only three episodes he definitely deserved that Emmy someone someone totally there like like oh it's crazy he always plays a dwarf and I'm like don't have a choice really have a choice forget it was saying this to this yes an amazing he's always worth enough I was looking at the person I had nine has like uh hello he actually is one yeah but he really is a fantastic yeah he's great and I love that like sardonic humor he always has oh yeah crap eating smirk you and we fought about him is the whole Alistair clan that he's a part of right you know like Lannister you know like he's the good one right you know like he's gotta love head uh you can just tell and I don't even know what happens in the rest of the season right right now i'm up to i don't wanna ruin it for you but you know it's just he's facing some adversity in this fourth episode at the end of it right and you can just tell like he'll be fine you know not whether they confused about what happened with uh sir Jorah uh that that blonde haired guy that for some reason is kind of incestuous with his sister oh I'm confused about what happened prior to Rob's kingship yes so what's the day and I would I I like I backstabbing going on like what why does he think he's in and what part of what families he there the auditorium where they called uh target target attorney yet right so that's what him in the Khaleesi are I know hit well on talking about this guy I should just bring his pictures bring him up Oh him yes damn what's his your histories rocky yeah it's weird no no this is the guy in the in the realm of the kingdom weights your say all wiggy not a skinny blond guy in with the Dothraki I know when I got banished because his i think is very but there's the guy who is hanging at he's like translating right right that's the dude ok married it's tough there's a lot of ins and outs yeah let us know what you guys think about Game of Thrones because we're just getting into it and I know what happens at the end of the first season why because New York Times is really bad about censoring spoiler alerts I mean the wrong don't read any interviews about the current state of season two because oh man the end is pretty good except I had to read it on the page and not watch please Anna I'm sorry that happened to you know it sucks you like you get Jack a lot with yeah it happened me with breaking bad too i saw a gift that was the info don't don't i don't know anything about breaking bad it's a little late no it's not Justin because at this moment I still don't know anything about that job I holds much power in my hands are now I'm gonna spoil it for you so at the end no funny it's crazy that's where I will tell you everything about walking dead right now oh that's right you have some yes I some leverage to okay door swings both ways brother all right they're all dead they've been dead for 20 year had ceased dead p I like the bastard to know 10 guys topic you think they're upset but every one of the charms like we don't watch this stuff alright well you should watch it because it really is good television and a lot of the stuff you probably watch is a lot worse than Game of Thrones we've also done a really poor job of explaining to people that haven't watched it yet so it's fine it's their problem that's game of thrones man p everyone watches it come on except your eye this one has monster day alright there's a lot of actual news that i want to get to today we spend 10 minutes on game of thrones by the way um so there's a lot going on i think the biggest piece of news that i just want to touch on real quick and i know you'll be able to appreciate this little bit of news so rumors are hitting this morning about possibly more dlc for the game batman arkham city this is a huge deal because uh you know in the beginning when rock city came out of the game last October everyone was like oh hey you know um we're gonna have dlc but that sort of manifested into what's unfortunately become these like you know limited a character maps and stuff like that has never been story-driven stuff well there's a new rumor out from a UK source IGN UK say is that says that they found the trophy list for some playstation three trophies that possibly uh give a little hint that there will be some story-driven dlc for robin and nightwing oh very cool so like their own stories have panning out in the game and other be robin fan in the original comic book series and it's cool that they're separating the two characters because there's actually three Robin's right right like so uh to Grayson eventually becomes Nightwing in the comic but then there's two more that came after him right one of which actually dies uh we get murdered by the Joker oh my god I was a spoiler i think that yet that sounds explorer well I mean it's captain in the comic book so i'm sure it's over and there's two other ones too so um yeah i'm not sure which character they would take but Robin is a very cool story lines alright forward to that so yeah this is a game that i would definitely watch you play and enjoy myself doing yes and we've done that before we have it we've wasted maybe workout many an hour spent in my desk just watching me play arkham city yeah I will get into that conversation too as well a lot of people calling in about whether or not they think watching someone play games is a worthwhile activity yet so there you go just a little tidbit of news Arkham City DLC probably coming your way soon hold onto those discs he's very cool because some story-driven dlc is appropriately coming down the pike uh in more video game news I can't believe I'm saying that I love it uh this is something that you and I talked about privately before the show started yesterday but I want to get your take on kinect Star Wars because all the reviews came out there was a tweet brian Tong from brian town yesterday I two days ago I think he was really excited about getting the game and you kind of know shot down well his excitement he said it sucked yeah and I wanted to get a first-hand review from you because everyone else online that checked it out hates it just as much I mean look there's no real way to to get around this it's terrible yeah it's it's just terrible it's absolutely terrible and my biggest I guess you know sort of beef with this whole thing is the fact that that Microsoft has done nothing but over hype this game to the point where everyone was convinced that they would actually be wielding a lightsaber in their hand right okay they're pushing this and shoving it down everyone's throat every e3 press conference think about what it was two years ago when they just went balls at and they just totally had this huge presentation and people like oh my god finally connecting to it's a steaming pile of crap that's upsetting it really is and I'm and you know what I can't be nice about it because you have led me to believe and the rest of us to believe that this would be the second coming I think um so I've like seen a game play and and watch the trailer I was excited about seeing the course it really makes it look like you will be willing a lightsaber right and do it force pushes it lies to you uh to me it seems like the big problem here is that it's not a game for Star Wars fans so when you're hyping it up for years prior to the game coming out it's obviously the fanboys that'll be really interested in the original story right but this co sort of makes it seem like it's a kids game it is a kids game it's a kids game disguised as a star wars game the I mean nothing and nothing feels good with it there's a dance section of it yeah there's like a there's like a dance central part of what the f is going on well the idea is that there's a bunch of mini games right now dance portion is just a part of that's not the actual arcade version gameplay right well no it that I just think that it was very misleading and I think a lot of people expected one thing and even when I got to play it last year at e3 yeah and I said it was terrible then I'm like hey they got a year at least till this thing comes out they're gonna be able to fix a few things here and there right but no they delivered a broken game as far as can we watch some of the dancing part of the shirt and Justin because uh you know they they just kind of remix some modern songs like Jason Derulo um I'm riding solo yeah to be i'm han so so while we play she's got a funny so check this out all right let's do this is actually in the game as Hansel is coming out of a platform right not in case in carbonite it looks like a Herson forward though no one wants to see Han Solo doing this so this is obviously for people that want to take a more lighthearted I mean come on like a version of what dance central right like people love that game but don't but you understand or sky wars universe you understand where I'm coming from though I get it we were all led to believe that as I would be able to chop people's heads off with a lightsaber you know at will and it's just not that that ever it doesn't perform well the you know there's no I've nothing positive to say about it yes a lot of the reviews were also complaining that the functionality and the movement recognition doesn't really work well connect cameras either so when you're jumping you know like you should ostensibly be able to jump turn around you know do a force push and we'll the lightsaber at the same time and it doesn't really pick up on all the subtle movements exactly I played it for a little bit over the weekend and it took me it took all the strength and to not throw it out the window it really did because that's how bad it and I'm so I you know I feel bad because I know a lot of time and effort went into it but I think the bigger story here is ok so the flagship game I mean this game was regarded as hey this is it you know this is a game and a franchise implemented together that no other platform can touch can't do this on move you can't do this on whe this is controller free lightsabers if this game doesn't work on connect what's going to work on connect where people are really compelled to go out and buy it during what do people take connect controls seriously and if video games is it more of a kid's platform or do other domi idols that exist that are not married are you I mean and don't get me wrong there are games that do work well like children of Eden which is like a a weird sort of shooter game that use your hands with okay that kind of worked for me that was like the best Kinect game there's a fruit ninja kinect which is which were so kids game though it's not kids always is when you like slicing here we are you doing stuff your hands you know whatever happened is is scar was gonna ever come to the playstation move because i feel like if i were trying to pretend like had a lighter in my hand i would actually want a physical controller right not just a you know like my fist young with you on that is that a possibility i remember when places movers came out people really excited i thought that was good at sort of look like the hilt of a lightsaber I don't know I mean I they get exclusive rights to the star wars franchise I to be honest I don't know the details of the licensing in and legalities of this specific game but can't get any worse yeah you know I I i don't know i mean the reviews they're not even nice yeah they're like three out of 10 4 out of 10 stuff like that it's not good alright well there you go really bad review from everybody and it's just universal yeah you know I feel like they also had an opportunity to get really cool voices for the dialogue and it sounds like they didn't get any of the original characters and actors to play them which it's it really is upsetting on numerous levels cuz you're playing as a kid too you're playing as a Padawan learner riot yeah I don't know I don't think this one's gonna grow up to be a Jedi yeah I'm sorry yeah another gear you're making the cut little Padawan you got to take a break when we come back much more 404 calls from the public emails from the public and a whole lot more fun stick around cuz the 404 we'll be right back this is the 404 mr f'ers the show where we all sing song ah what are you doing you this is the 404 the show where the robot set you straight on your pronunciation by all right you win a coke it's biopic i right yeah yeah yeah eita dictionaries know everything oh we just watched a break video of death metal voice warm-ups he was into men yeah he's good he's doing like the scales from sea to sea but in the death metal voice I was wondering how those dudes just how did they survive a night of shows yeah and do it again the next night how are their vocal cords yeah still attached like they're nodules yeah darkthrone must be sponsored by the fix or something Bray I don't understand like you know you hear about like Adele having to go through surgery right because she just sings and then this guy's literally screaming for four hours a night right he's like hey what's up I'm fine yeah that it's crazy the registers that he goes up to and the higher notes he does just like uh he does like a raptor screen yes so it's totally weird what do you got come on right now it's just so funny he actually did the voices for Jurassic Park um so we're talking in the chat room I was just looking at the Chairman during the break and people are like yeah connect sucks whoa uh of Connect sucks it does have some pretty cool uses I think the way it's implemented in mass effect 3 is pretty cool yeah you can like call out which weapon you want to use as opposed to scrolling through the wheel the weapon wheel which probably saves you a second or two yeah you know you can shout save witches do that like if you go save game or I forget what the command is exactly y SI is your game and that's kind of awesome yeah i guess even though you could hit the back button does the same thing tiring for the thumb yeah i don't know i just don't know where they're going with it you know i mean it's very clear that sony sort of gave up with the move a little bit always a give up but they're just not pushing that pedal teen advertisers for that in a room and they're really not pushing the pedal down too much yeah you sort of think the same things gonna happen with kinect i don't know something that I kind of wanted to talk about to so Ars Technica had a really cool article today about the death of American arcades yes and how some of them might actually be coming back a long time ago we talked about Chinatown fair down on Mott Street incorrect that's like one I think one of the oldest arcades in the city um that got shut down because of a leasing issue but now they're getting uh resurrected it's going to open up again and uh this is sort of questioning whether or not American arcades are coming back and comparing it to arcades in japan right um I wanted to ask you and since we're already on the topic of motion control video games do you think that element might have been a contributing factor in the death of those arcades what my motion control motion control and then just the the technology behind modern consoles on you know obviously with online multiplayer coming yeah I don't know why I don't know why it fell out of popularity I do not know why especially considering how popular games are now arm I think a lot of it is a cultural phenomenon you know I just think you know kids were like hey why am I going to the arcade if i can add if I can recreate the same awesome graphics and not have to pump in a quarter every 10 minutes it also means that you can talk crap on your opponent from thousands of miles away and not suffer the consequences of getting slapped in the face but I next for sure I mean that's part of it but then you look at other cultures it's a huge industry in Japan is it not right it is um you know I don't I don't know what it is I don't know why it didn't take off here uh so in the article they talk about this guy brought Brad Crawford he's coming out with this new indie documentary about the Japanese arcade experience okay he attributes the popularity in Japan over in a merit over that in America to the transportation culture okay and how the city is are so tightly packed that you know it's easier for those citizens to take a train and I guess they don't have things like basements and dens where most kids play video games now so they have to go into a public place like an arc is literally no space for yeah there's no space for it now like we're kids gather around on couches and carpets mean I'm sure I wish like the freakonomics guys did something on this in the entity okay because it's it's definitely something that would fall into their wheelhouse yeah um yeah I don't know and it's kind of sad because i was at what for my birthday says he took me to a pinball arcade right pinball museum yet like that was like the last bastion of of art of like American arcade ism is that a word that um you know was like really felt like I was looking into the past not just because it was museum but it was just like wow people are at this place and they're eating pizza right you know and they're playing games it's weird man I think it's a lot of it had to do with the games being so advanced in the arcades that and this is the reason why I stopped going because I didn't want to spend two dollars on that card and refill it you know no one's gonna want to put forty dollars on a card at Dave & Buster's to play a few video game you're right and I think everyone should adopt the model that the pinball museum does in Asbury Park they uh you basically pay hourly right you pay 15 bucks for every two hours that's what it should be that's what it should be or there's also nickel arcades there's a there was place called nickel nickel in the owner I grew up and you know you pay an entrance fee of like five six bucks yeah and then every game was no more than you know like 20 cents so okay you put in like for nickels and then you could play right but those were the modern games that it was a mix of modern and vintage ones like the original Street Fighter for example is free that's awesome and you could play the free games if you want but if you want to play the modern ones they cause that's the way to do a man do do do some sort of entrance fee I make it so that there's no pain in the ass about it you know take credit card at the door I remember the big trend was doing like you said the game cards will you go in no cover charge you just go in you put like a you put like 20 bucks on a card and then you swipe it to me ridiculous though why it's the same thing as doing the money just do the fee upfront and then let me free play the rest of the time I'm there the return on investment totally isn't worth it for a game like Street Fighter where you're playing two rounds that are 60 seconds apiece yeah and then that game costs two dollars no no way no way oh that's why I want to do that man you want to go into business with me you're so nice our kids are dead man what'd I just say arcades in Manhattan would do well because that nullifies the whole transportation issue that they seem to be taking advantage of in Japan and also in Japan they have games that aren't just video games I have like clink oh sure and you do that I you know the bar kids are coming back yeah they're becoming trendy a new on open up in jersey city that has a great it's all about the great beer selection they don't really take a lot of it would what I feel like they don't realize arcades are not just about giving people the experience of playing games you have to maintain these machines and keep them up and and take care of them and that's why that silver ball museum is so awesome because everything is in pristine condition right once you do that and sort of like make that apparent that that's the quality that's what you're paying for that's what you're getting right that translates and I think you know leads the successful business you need to have that arcade troll sitting in the corner there's always that our control with the coin operated machine they really dirty little yep I Bell yeah the key Bell change machine on is I I came to fix it now that's a Quasimodo be exact but this actually ties in a conversation we were having earlier about spectatorship and that was the reason why I enjoyed going to arcades my friends because it's really enjoyable for me to watch two people compete that are both really good right you know and that's something you don't really get in home based video game you know right like people cheering you on when you win I members a big deal when Championships would happen in arcades totally that occurs anymore I don't know I there was something so organic about it and I know we talked about it before but just watching like when the new street fighter 4 was it I'm free kasturi for I think it's before that it was definitely before that it was the new street fighter game and people were lining up and a huge crowd had gathered and it was like wow let's watch these two guys go at it and it was like 20 30 people cheering at a screen I wonder if some of it has to do with the fact that arcade screens on those consoles I'm sorry that on the arcade machines are actually smaller than what most people have at home now they're television it's true maybe that's why adds a lot of contributing factors some point the scales got tipped in yeah i don't know i just wish that scene was still around me what I mean yeah I do I do it has a place in my heart for sure speaking of watching games there's a caller about his wife watching games hey this is a Cinco she you guys are talking about people watching other people play with you games whether enjoyed or not when I was a kid I had the job my brother didn't I went out and bought the video games and then he would play him I just watch them it was pretty entertaining also my wife I was watching me play the Uncharted series because it's pretty much like a movie really um then one more thing you guys were talking about the Twitter rewards of the day and you know who nathan fillion is come on your geek cred just went down Nathan Fillion on Firefly captain mal castle another voice of green a green lantern all right so we dropped the ball with the nathan fillion snow ya know who he was we just didn't know I recognize his face but was whose yeah Nathan Fillion is gonna forget was a thousand pictures of him yeah but anyway I get it we get it we're start we can't keep up on everything I mean you went over both over our heads this guy's a geek God apparently that apparently he liked controls them yeah um so there is it proved go ahead read there um the whole watching people play uncharted that works uncharged a great game to watch bioshock's a great game to watch having batman arkham city in my opinions great game to watch i used to like watching my friends play games like Final Fantasy 7 yeah like RPGs are literally movies now and for sure watch those cutscenes with every other people so yeah it's something for everybody there um let's get to a couple emails we have today okay a lot of people writing in about their experiences with with certain topics that we've covered recently I pretty jamie lewis rights in nice talking about the whole you know driverless cars or auto pilot cars that we were really getting into yesterday and he says guys he is the first in line for driverless cars didn't know this he doesn't see very well oh I didn't know did you know I didn't know that Jamie cannot see very well that's a shame because his voice is amazing that's why I how it gets around I guess okay thank you drive me he's a daredevil can't see well the other senses are enhanced exactly um you will not find a bigger support of this google project than me it might even make me give them my actual information he says you're right there are some major idiots on the road everywhere Ford has been working on assistive technology to from adaptive cruise control to curve stability that preserves the car and driver why don't they have that foam from demolition man what the crash yeah yeah yeah why don't we have that it seems too hard yeah they need to put that impact protection thing that we saw at CES this year yes right I just you know like I just think it makes sense I mean I mean if an airbag can inflate at the speed at which it does right you sure as hell can fill up a car with this awesome home like when I'm sewed into jeans I just think it's just makes so much sense you know the technology is right there is just more about linking those two companies together yeah it's just like getting them into a business meeting yeah dude everyone always all the airbag gas burns you it can really mess you up it's terrible to inhale the phone can't be much worse but the father yeah I agree with the foam in the cars i want that i read a story this morning about the new york auto show i believe is going on later on this week yeah and they're gonna debut the first prototype of a flying car so that's something we didn't get to talk about yesterday during the driverless car conversation but that's not realist it is really they're gonna talk about it I know they're gonna talk about his look Terrafugia ya gonna be called the transition and over I think a hundred people have already put down ten thousand dollar deposits on these wines that's not it to me that's not a flying car that's a very tiny plane yeah that's a here I that's a passenger plane you know the two hand plane right it's a roadster yeah disguise do you then it has wheels on the bottom so when you touch down like all plants do yeah I don't understand like I can you want me to drive a plane down the highway I'll Drive and playing down the highway they just redefined plane it's not a fine car yeah it's a plane and that maybe you could also put on the road right would you and I understand flying cars to be it's like a car that just takes off of parkway uh and then flies in the sky for a little bit then like in a seamless transition goes back onto the highway how is that not a place though is that the only that makes it a plane is it the fact that it's in a car right exactly right ok so can have wings yeah just the wings near attracting the wheelman car that's what it is that's what the five is the wing you know yeah it's not a flying car it's a very small fine point solid a semantic let's get our stuff together uh everyone knows it's no secret we don't like QR codes no and Dallas from Connor we have a little photo to bring up with this he says I almost threw up when I saw this I was like what are you talking about apparently there's some wacky QR code lottery oh yes he took a photo of this is feeling looking play the Jake's lotto digital scratch off what is that is at work so i guess you scratch off the QR code and then you have to do the QR code to find out if you've won no no you'll have to scratch anything that's the point 0 that's 0 which ok tell right away yeah yes all you gotta wait how does this why do you have to buy the actual card thing can't you just go to the store and scan all of these I get again there's a cover flap on it this to me is an amazing misunderstanding of what QR codes were initially intended for well maybe not at this might be the end of the line for coins and that's why no one uses coins that's right Canada's getting rid of their penny man it's happening it's really happens you buy that lottery ticket for the 500 mil I did and what do you mean after that go I'm here aren't I do they announce the winners yet or last thing I read they were trying to find people with no one came like I believe it's someone in Maryland someone in Illinois and someone in Kansas so no matter who won still lose their nominee would you do this show still if you want them that I would then don't light it milk and look me right in the eye and tell him for me it's so much it's such an incomprehensible amount of money yeah like five hun so so I think the final jackpot was like six seventy or something like that so that means you get if you take cash you get like for at least four well like what do you do I would buy the devil's 95 I would buy the devil's still have 200 million left over would you give me a million dollars I give you 10 million you would give me 10 million dollar I don't know when you're there right I give you some money would you bet make sure you have to work here no more thanks man you know I'd buy lunch at least four times in a row my god think what I'll and think about what that kind of money would do to you yeah ought to be totally honest I know we haven't talked

all the people come out of the woodwork all and especially if you're in a state where you must disclose your identity like if you could stay anonymous which I think two out of three winning states you
