Good morning, good afternoon, everyone, depending on what time zone you're coming from. So welcome to my presentation on Living on the Edge, which is an idea that came up about a year and a half ago with a customer who was looking for a way to connect branch offices to a centralized place. Back then, they were trying to do it with OpenSec, and it didn't work very well. The customer ditched the idea, but I thought it had merit. So I did some development and playing around with it on my own. So here's a disclaimer, lawyers, you know. So the idea is to build small devices that can be placed pretty much everywhere. This here happens to be a Raspberry Pi, but it's not. I mean, this is a toy for development. The idea is, for instance, to have a rugged service that you can place in a branch office that can only have to be plugged in, where you do not have to have local personnel who doesn't know anything about computers as long as they can plug in a power outlet. And you have a way to network connect the whole thing, then it would be working. This thing has been, I've connected this at home at my hotel room everywhere. And the whole mechanism that is behind it works everywhere, everywhere. It doesn't require me to know the IP address of the device. It works from behind the firewall pretty much anything as long as they can create a network connection to it. So of course, if you are putting devices in places where they could potentially be attacked, there's always risk factors. So the idea is here also to protect from, for instance, a listener on the Wi-Fi, how weak Wi-Fi protocols are. So we want to create an environment that you can safely, where you can safely deploy software from your centralized environment to the Edge device or devices, hopefully many of them, and run them there without having to have any kind of IT knowledge in the area. So where could we use something like that? As we said, branch offices, for instance, point of sale software, something in this direction. Equipment sites, if you want to run simple network functionality on, let's say, wind turbine or something like that. Mobile sites, something that may have different connectivity depending on where you are. Set-top devices, if you were to build out something that is home control or something like that. The idea is really that we need to only have to have power and some form of network connectivity, something, and either 5G or Ethernet or Wi-Fi or whatever connectivity you have available in the area. And as the way that this is built at the moment, it does not have redundancy. The idea is if it should break, it's just going to be replaced with another device. So you could, of course, build a Kubernetes cluster. You could have multiple machines and tolerate failure of one. The downside to that, of course, is that then again, you have more complexity and you potentially do not have a way to address this complexity where the device actually lives. So the idea is to not trust the local network at all or trust it for only a traffic that does not have to do with the control of your Kubernetes environment. So the way that this is configured at the moment is the tunnel is absolute. So all the traffic goes through the tunnel and it will automatically get where it is. It cannot be, nobody can log in locally. Nobody can hijack the connectivity. This is unless, of course, you find a bug in an open VPN that allows you to get in there. But this is a risk that you always take, of course. So the thing is also, the idea is to have no login to the Edge device. There's no SSH keys on it, no SSH permissions so people cannot do the Edge devices only supposed to offer the service it is built for. Then we have local traffic optional. This would be, for instance, if we were to have a port that allows connectivity to things like a point of sales register or so. And then admin tooling that would be on the remote side of their environment. So what do we need? We only want power and we want to have some sort of networking. We want to be able to ship this to the customer. This is actually the software for this is on a USB key. This is not even a bad approach, even for something that is going to be used in an actual function instead of just as a demo. Although, in many cases, it would probably make more sense to have a USB drive because USB keys do not have any kind of error correction. So if this thing were to fail, we would replace it with a new one. If you want to update something on this cluster, update the software that you are running on it. It should be invisible to the user. There should not be anything locally done to make this happen. If you want to update the OS, of course, if you want to do the underlay of the Kubernetes cluster and the OS, the only way to do this is to replace the drive. But this is also something that you could normally let a person do who has no IT experience. And then, of course, backups would also go through the tunnel to the central site. So I've played with this for quite a while. I found that a lot of the descriptions of how this is supposed to work are not quite what they are supposed to be, including K0S, which is at the core of the whole thing. It works very well if you know how to do it. But if you follow the official deployment guide, there are a few things missing, which I'm going to talk about in a few minutes. So what can this run on any kind of single-board computer server, basically whatever you can ship somewhere that has a power cord that you can plug in? And I mean, for expeditions or so, it could be something like a rugged laptop or some sort of rugged computer. I just chose a Raspberry Pi because I had one lying around and because they are cheap and they're also useful for testing. I will provide a guide on how I did the deployment. So if you want to try this out on your own Raspberry Pi, there is really nothing to it that you need other than a Raspberry Pi plug and ideally a keyboard for it. So we have a Lightweight Kubernetes distribution. There is a bunch of them out there. I'm using K0S. This is our Lightweight Kubernetes distribution. And I'm familiar with it. I like the concept of being able to just download a single binary and have a Kubernetes cluster built directly from there. This is a story I should probably tell. So I did something boneheaded when I was just starting to work on this. I built everything and eventually I got to the Kubernetes distribution and I got the error message that the binary could not be run on the platform. So I looked and I finally found out that the platform was actually ARM v7 instead of ARM 64. So I thought, oh, that's going to cost me another two days to fix that. And I just went by the write up that I did. It took me less than an hour to actually make it work again from the time that I deployed to this or copied the image onto the stick. So it is really not difficult to do once you get around all the footfalls that you have. I'm basically just using Ubuntu 22.04. I'm using the Raspberry Pi image that allows to do this, but you can use anything at Palina, Edge, or whatever you're using for this. Open VPN. In our case, in this case, I'm VPNing into our company network because my central site is a virtual machine that's running on our corporate cloud. But you could simply put the whole thing onto a single machine that's sitting somewhere on the internet. And then I'm using Lens to just show that you can access the environment that you can build this. So the deployment. First of all, I used the Raspberry Pi image to build the image. It has built-in configuration. Wait a second. I may actually have this thing on here. So you basically can just choose an OS. Here, general purpose OS, you have Ubuntu. And you can basically just choose this here. So the installation is essentially pretty painless. The only thing that you need to set up, I recommend setting up the hostname and then Wi-Fi credentials and login credentials, if at least I needed those for the prototype. Theoretically, you should be able to eventually build this without. But it's not quite there yet. Then a boot to Raspberry Pi from the image make everything work. Configure OpenVPN. This is also a pretty common place. Just make sure that it is actually starting after the reboot. The first couple of times that I tried it after the reboot, the tunnel did not open. So it was a little bit of a fight there. But this should be fairly straightforward. And then you download and install the KZRS binary. This is essentially just you go to get.KZRS.8h. get.KZRS.NET, I think. I did that. Yeah, I'll dig that out and publish it. So the KZRS binary does essentially everything that allows you to build, deploy, undeploy a cluster. And trust me, it took me about 20 times to get it work. So on the same image, I stopped it, undeployed it, deployed it again, until I finally figured out what the problem was. And the biggest problem that I found was to make the tunnel interface work with the deployment. Because normally, it chooses an existing network interface, either the Ethernet interface or the WLAN interface. And the tunnel is not taken into account. So what you have to do is you have to create a configuration file that has the tunnel IP directly placed into it as the API IP. Because if you do not do this, then the API IP was going to be only available through the regular network interface. And that's obviously not what you want. So that configuration file, this is essentially pretty simple. Yeah, let me see whether I can find this. Yes, this might be a very good idea. So I think this is better. Oh, yeah. So why doesn't it work? Well, the easy, the simplest way is it is not actually plugged in. So let's see whether this will directly get us into our build. There we are. There we are. See, this takes over. The funny thing is that the user interface comes up or the shell comes up before it actually lets me log in. So this is that specification that is used with K0S as a configuration file. And the important piece is that API address thing. But I found, and this is something that I will have to address with the K0S team, is that theoretically it puts all the network interfaces into there. There's an additional segment that has all the other network interfaces. The downside to this, of course, is that these are not, there's no x5.09 certificate for them. And so the API access through that doesn't actually work. But as we do not want any other addresses to access our API anyway, this is the way to do it. So basically, you can even leave that extensions thing out, even the network thing out. This only needs to have the spec with the API. And that address is where the API is going to be reachable. And this needs to be the address of the tunnel that you are using. So OK, and continue here. OK, so the next step is to configure OpenVPN. You have typically OpenVPN looks like, so this is a standard OpenVPN file that you probably get from a network administrator or you create it when you are building your own tunnel in OpenVPN server. So that's that. And also after the reboot, verify the tunnel operation. It's important to make sure that it does come up again. So to get, physically, I built that at home. And when I built that, the tunnel always comes out, was built to come up with the same network IP address, internal tunnel, internal IP address. So when I moved it from there to my hotel room, the tunnel, the IP address in my hotel obviously was totally different. And also, obviously, you cannot either SSH or API connect into a hotel network. So that VPN tunnel essentially gets me out of the network and into my network so I can actually access it pretty much regardless where it is. So then download and install the KZRS binary. This is configured with this KZRS. Yeah, so this would be, for instance, the way that you configure this. This is basically the KZRS binary. And you downloaded this installed in user bin. And then you do use a local bin, I think. And then you do KZRS install controller dashed as single. The single is so you can run both Kubernetes master and Kubernetes work on the same node. And then the CKZRS.yml is so the configuration file is run to get your tunnel interface. And so let's see. So if you have a KZRS controller running, it's also configured the way that it will shut down and come up properly after the shutdown. And so if you were to talk to that directly on the node, you would see, so you can see that the Kubernetes serve is actually running. But of course, this is not very useful if you have to log into the server to make this happen. So the next thing is to build a service that started after all the other services on the system is extracting the Kubernetes configuration into a file and copy that file into our server. So basically, you would have, so this just creates a kube config from that Kubernetes cluster and then is copying it to here. So now we are on the main server. And the kube config is in kube config dash obsidian. This is the host name of this guy. So maybe we should look at all namespaces. Otherwise, we will not see the parts. Of course, you see here that you see the same parts. So once this thing is configured, once the drive is configured, you can just boot it up anywhere and it will automatically get your kube config from the existing system into here. And then you can go one step further. We have a temp rest anyway. I think I only have a few minutes left. Here I have actually loaded that kube config already into Lens so you can see that you can actually access Lens itself. But also this thing runs. The Lens provided monitoring. So if you look at cluster here, you can see the usage of CPU memory ports and so on. And the graphs that go with it. And then you could create a workload in there. Like just upload any kind of Kubernetes workload that you want to play with. So this is where we are at the moment. What's still open? First of all, I want to get to the point where this can all be done in a way that we can just clone these images, run a simple script on them to configure the network credentials and the hostname, and then basically deploy this without having to ever log into the system. No SSH, no nothing. And the other thing would be on the other side to build a CI CD environment that allows us to actually deploy to a random arbitrary number of Kubernetes servers that are somewhere out in the field. We do not know where. We do not want to know where. We just want to know, we just need to know the tunnel interface IPs, which they are going to tell us whenever they are booting up wherever they may be in the world. So I hope this was a little bit informational and a little bit instructional and a little bit of fun for you. And thank you very much. Any questions? This is something that I still need to do at the moment. This is not there yet, but I'm going to plan, I'm planning on putting this up on GitHub. And I'm also going to provide, after the show or in the next couple of days, provide a step-by-step list that I have made for myself to build this environment. Anything else? Yes? The idea for this would be that you are basically mass deploy workloads. Let's say you have 50 branch offices and they all need that same point of sale software that you want to deploy. If you can do this, of course, you can go to each of those edge sites and do this manually. And this is how a lot of companies still work. The technician drives to the place, installs the software, and makes things happen. But first of all, the technician costs money, quite a lot of money, actually. The second thing is that the technician only is available at a certain time. So if something goes to go wrong, so you cannot make a fix, put a fix in place until the technician has time to drive there. And the third thing is that also this is a fairly hefty security risk if you have, in general, operational risk if you have somebody manually at these commands. If you can automate it to the point where you really do not need to touch anything, you ship that device to the place they plug it in, they boot it up. It automatically falls in line and you deploy that point of sale software. And if something happens, for instance, Major Wuggers found in that software, you simply send the update through the same mechanism. That makes the larger your environment is and the more edge devices you have, the more money and time you will save to make this happen. So the second thing is these things are, you can basically build something that is reasonably cheap. So you can simply ship a replacement instead of having like an expensive service in stock. So you can ship the server out, let's say branch office 24 needs one and you are not going to have one in each branch office. These things, if you do it right, you can build for a couple hundred bucks. You can actually have a second one in case something goes catastrophically wrong to just take it out. It's like basically, like your Wi-Fi router at home, if something goes wrong, router gets destroyed. What do you do? You buy and you want to put it in. And this is kind of the same concept but to build something that is in a way disposable that you really do not have to worry about what do I do when this thing dies. When this thing dies, we are just gonna replace it. I'm not particularly fond of this throw away everything in society, but these things like that are reliable and if something should happen at some point, then it's probably easier for you and much, much cheaper to throw it away and simply put another device in its place than have somebody drive out there and try to fix it. So, yes? Deployment versus K-Zero? I have not looked at that. There's certainly different ways out there to do this. What made me use K-Zero first of all, this is, I know, Josie Numelin who is running the K-Zero development. So it was a little bit easier. I had to actually ask Josie two questions during the build because I got stuck in two places. So it was easier for me to make this happen. The second is of course, the idea here is a concept. This is not supposed, everyone is not supposed to build it the same way but it should show that you can build something that is so simple that basically, go with the Apple principle. You want to be able to just make it work and this is the idea here. If you want to do this with a different container distribution, absolutely. I mean, the idea was to essentially show that if you're with a little bit of effort, you can build a device that does not require any kind of local knowledge or local skill set. So it sees whatever idea that you decide at a big time? That's correct, but there's a downside to this. If you go somewhere like, let's say here, I would not be able to get to this from the outside. There's this behind the firewall from our hosts from Open Infra and they will suddenly not let me directly connect this to the internet so I can see an IP address. You would have to have some sort of netting so you would be able to see this device on the internet somehow. The idea with creating the VPN is that you can basically, VPN works from nearly anywhere unless the operator of the firewall actually actively blocks it. So that was the idea behind it and this is also the same problem that our customer had that they had Wi-Fi, some sort of random Wi-Fi routers in their place and having those Wi-Fi routers, you really have no way, unless you configure each and every one to actually let you in. This is the only way to actually get the IP address out there and allow you to get to get in. You can still do it with any other kind of methodology. Thank you.


you might find them lurking in the cabinets of estate sales. Are you ready to find out what it is? This category, I will tell you, was a little bit tricky to research. It seems that people don't like to leave feedback on this item. Hey, Bola Buddies, thanks for watching. Amazing, right? All right, let's get started. Okay, Bola Buddies. I just have to say you need to wait till the end of the video, okay, because we have a little chat. We have a little chat about this topic and it to me, it just cracks me up. So stay tuned for that. Hey, Bola Buddies, thanks for watching. All right, this is a Bolo category video. What does that mean? It means I pick a category and I do a deep dive into that category and I talk to you about it. I research on it and I try to give you guys things to look for. And these items, you might find them lurking in the cabinets of a state sales. Are you ready to find out what it is? All right, let's get started. This category, I will tell you, was a little bit tricky to research. It seems that people don't like to leave feedback on this item. So I was inspired by Rachel Strickland to look for this item and I actually found an item and I'm going to show you my item first. It's currently listed and I will tell you, I did struggle with pictures a little bit. So give me a little bit of a break on this one. But here is my listing and the brand is Mar-Tex and from my research, this is a really great Bolo brand, but these are just beautiful. They are reversible. They're kind of sculpted and they've got kind of this fringe on the end and here is the actual vintage tag or labeling here on the corner. Most of the vintage towels are marked with a label that kind of runs across the side from what I've seen. Now, these towels do have a little bit of issues. I did run them through the washing machine for the most part. I would say for the age, they look really, really good. But I mean, this side, this is on the backside. So if you flip that over a towel rack, you're not really going to see that. So it's like two washcloths. The washcloths are in a little bit. They're not exactly the same size, which is a little bit weird. So I don't know. I don't think I'm going to get $70. I do have best offer. I thought I had my sale going right now, but for some reason, it didn't grab this item. So I need to look into that. I believe I have 35 or 38% going on. Right now, I also have a buy one get one 25% off with coupon code BOLO coupon at checkout. So if anybody adds items to their cart, you can get that second item at a discount. And if you watch my channel, I have a coupon that you can put in at checkout BOLO buddies and that gets you 20% off your entire order. So that's probably a better deal than my coupon here. All right. So let's look right here at Rachel Strickland's channel. She is a BOLO finder and she is the one that brought up towels. And again, I found that towel set at a garage sale for $1. So I'm definitely going to make some money on that. I just got to find the right buyer. But the colors were incredible. Here is the video that Rachel Strickland sent me. I'm going to show you guys that first. Hey guys, I'm Rachel Strickland. I'm going to bring you a BOLO today for an area of a thrift store estate sale yard sale that you're probably walking right past that is the vintage towels. Guys, I know this one is like a beautiful orange like 1970s and while all vintage bath towels do have like a place on on eBay turning it on the back is going to reveal to you guys like look out specifically for what they call a raised or sculpted pattern and specifically look out for this brand. I'm going to show you the tag. This is the Canon that might be backwards here because I'm using my phone for this, but this is called the Canon Monticello guys. These are minimum $20 apiece all day long. You can sell a set of five for a hundred bucks and how much are you picking up bath towels for? Look at this. I just got this entire bag of bath towels for me to stay for free. Check me out right here on YouTube. Please I am nearing 10,000 subscribers and I would love to have you as part of that party. I am Rachel Strickland here on YouTube and I hope to see you guys there. Okay, and now we're back at her channel and I just want to show you some of her recent videos. She is incredible. She mixes it up. She does have some whatnot videos. If you guys are thinking about getting on whatnot, she really teaches you how to use that. So go sub up her channel. She is incredible. I will have her linked down below, but I went into her store because she recently picked up some towels vintage towels from I believe it was a family member's estate. So here are the items that she currently has listed in her eBay store. So they're kind of the sculpted. That's a great word. These are Canon. Canon is another brand that I kept seeing over and over that was going for really good money and we're going to go into some other listings just like my other category videos and I'm going to show you some of the listings that I found and other brands to be on the lookout for, but these are Rachel's listings. So if any of those interest you, you can check out her eBay store. And here are the ones that she has sold. So this set of three Canon, Monty, Monticello, Santa Cruz bath towel. So this is a set of three right here. So they're really, really pretty towels. Okay. So when I do my Bolo category videos, I try to do research so that I'm not giving you guys bad information. Okay. So the first one I saw right here that I wanted to look at was this bath mat. I'm like, oh, wow, it's a bath mat. $299.99 with a slash through it. I'm like, I'm going to look into this. I know that you can go over to Terapeak. I learned this from the Rebel reseller and I copied the title when I went into Terapeak, I put that title in and you guys, they took a best offer of $25 on this. So when you are searching sold comps, please be careful because that is pretty deceiving thinking that most people that list something at $299 are not going to sell it for 25. So just be careful. Okay. That's why when I do these category research style videos, I try to do as much homework as I can so that I'm giving you guys good information. And I know the Rebel reseller does that too on her category videos. What she does is plush videos. She picks categories of plush and does a deep dive. So definitely check her out as well. All right. So here is again that Canon Royal Family. This sold for $49.95. Here's your little tag in the corner. So it's, you know, sewn on each side and kind of lifts up in the middle. Again, reversible, just really, really pretty. When you see them, they are going to pop out and hit you in the face. They are so beautiful. This one here, same thing, Sculpted. I think I need to add the word Sculpted to my title. So this is Vintage Sears. So Sears was another one that came up a lot. So right here is what it looks like in the corner. So we've got Canon. We've got Sears, Martex. Was that what mine was? And Field Crest right here is another one that just kept coming up over and over. And the ones that I'm showing you right now, I was able to verify with feedback. Now I'm going to show you some others that I could not verify with feedback, but I do want to show them to you just so you know what to look for. I just feel like people maybe don't want to leave feedback that they're buying used towels. I don't know. It's really strange. But this one sold for $69.99 plus shipping. This right here is another Canon Royal Family 7C's towel and bath set. Here is your tag. $76 and this was a good sale. I checked the feedback. And then again, this one is Steven Utica right here.  I mean, you can see it right here. This also was a good sale for $85 and free shipping on that one. This one is a 1960s, 70s vintage bath towel. Lot of five green and white. This is just JC Penney's. This one is not as fancy, but the colors are fantastic and I can totally see somebody wanting to rock these in their bathroom. And again, the tag is not as fancy, but definitely still vintage. This one right here. I love it. These are Terry dish towels MCM, which is mid-century modern. These are Canon brand also and these look like they're still in the original packaging with the advantage advertising, which is really, really cool. And these sold for $97.49 plus shipping. This right here is that Mar-Tex, which is the same brand that I found and these have a floral print to them and it's a set and this set sold for $99 plus shipping. These are Bassana Italy bath towels Poodle polka dot. Now I'm guessing somebody is just has a poodle and is loving this print. They've got these little tassels. How fun is that? These sold for $95 and here's your little tag. So things with characters or animals, different prints that may appeal to just a certain type of person that is looking for maybe that poodle. All right, this one. Wow, field crest, vintage field crest, vibrant orange and green color. Now these are great because you're not going to see the stains like you can see on mine. Those would totally be covered. Here is the tag again field crest, $99.99 on those and of course, always look for Lisa Frank. I did see some other towels for character towels. I don't know if it was we'll look here in a minute, but Lisa Frank is definitely if you can find vintage Lisa Frank and this was a good sale of $169.50 free shipping on that. So beach towels can also be good. This is Pierre Cardin. I also saw several of these.  So they're kind of those bigger ones and let me see if I can find a really pretty look at that. I was trying to find the little logo, but they're not showing it here. Maybe it's just I don't know. They've got it out by their pool. Who wants to go swimming? Anyway, these sold for $244.50 plus shipping. All right, so I'm going to take you back over to the original screen air maze. Of course, you guys, if you don't know what air maze is, it's a very high-end brand. Scarves, towels, anything air maze is going to be big money. YSL another one. Definitely be on the lookout for you can see right here. It's definitely a big money Bolo. Here's another one that I kept seeing. It's Marghab. I don't know if I'm saying that right. Marghab and I saw multiples of these that I just got it to Qing have sold for decent money, but I could not verify them with feedback, but there are high solds without any verification. So right now we're just kind of looking at some of the high solds. I showed you some of the ones that I verified. Here's another air maze. This is a vintage LL bean, but again, none of these had feedback. So I don't know who knows if they paid. You just it's hard to tell. This is a vintage Bill Blass, but what it comes down to is you definitely look at this bathrobe. You definitely want to be checking those estate sales for old vintage towels. Incredible, right? Canon. I keep seeing Canon. I always say this wrong. I don't know if it's Ives or Yives or if I'm totally saying it wrong. I know Donna Telebotelino the other day. She's like, honey, you're saying that wrong. I'm like, I say everything wrong, Donna. It's okay. But anyway, it's something that St. Laurent and it's YSL. So you guys can give me a little hint in the comments if you want, but definitely a brand I've sold before. Definitely a brand to look for, but the towels do really, really well. And this is what I was talking about beach towels that say cute things or, you know, the Lisa Frank. Those are going to go for bigger money as well. This one right here just has this. It's a pool towel. This interesting print on it. Here's another Lisa Frank. Here's some more Canon. Just another interesting beach towel. Another Lisa Frank. So I'm sculpted again. When you see that sculpted, I need to add that to my title. I think I think that's an important keyword. Here's more of that Mark Hab or Marga Hab. I don't know how to say it, but these look more like linens or like fancy towels, you know, hand towels like for the kitchen or something like that. Ralph Lauren, the bear definitely can be a bolo. He's one to look for Jaws. So you can see here what's going on. It's you're seeing the same brands over and over field crest that Mar-Tex, even the Sears. The Sears seem to do really well, but your color combos are also going to be important. Copper tone. Oh my gosh. How cute is that? Here's this one was probably re-listed. Well, maybe I think that's the same. I don't know. The shadowing is different. Maybe it's not the same. Sure looks the same, right? So you guys that concludes my video field crest. Again, Mar-Tex again. Oh, that one has the original tags. Flower power is another thing that I see very often in these towels reversible. If it's reversible, put that in your title. Goosebumps, most Goosebumps items are collectible. So there is some information for you guys again. Go check out Rachel Strickland on YouTube. She is up to 11,000 subscribers. Her channel is growing like a weed. She is fantastic. But let me know in the comments is a vintage towel, something that you have ever purchased. Is it something that you think is kind of like you? I know somebody's like gross vintage towels. I'm like, you do stay at hotels, right? Because think about it. That's even grosser. Like if you buy vintage towels at a garage sale, probably one person has used that towel. You go to a hotel and if you really start thinking about it, it's kind of disgusting. But anyway, I know other people have been grossed out by silverware. Like who would buy their silverware? Like people eat off that. I'm like, do you go to restaurants? But it's so funny because you don't think about those things until you think about it. Like I'm not buying towels at a thrift store or forks and spoons at a thrift store. That's so nasty. Oh my goodness. Let me know if you're one of those people that kind of feels that way. But now you're enlightened and think, oh my gosh, I have stayed at a hotel and I have aided a restaurant. All right, you guys, thanks so much for being here. Thank you for watching. If you like this video, give it a thumbs up and be sure to subscribe. Thanks for watching.


Miss Irene Delroy of the Department of Justice and her assistant Sergeant Fitzgerald are working night and day on the airmail mystery which concerns the wrecking and robbing of Trans-American Airlines fastest airmail planes. Jimmy Gifford, roving newspaper reporter, attracted by the mysterious crashes, has been assisting Miss Delroy and Fitzgerald. Ernest Powers, General Manager of Trans-American Lines, reveals to Miss Delroy that he has been conducting investigations of his own following the crashing of 655, piloted by Andy Andrews, cracked male flyer, who was killed by the male thieves shortly after he was forced down in Devil's Canyon. Powers investigation has implicated Roberts, the radio operator in charge of Metropolitan Airport. Miss Delroy sends Sergeant Fitzgerald to bring Roberts to the offices for questioning him when Fitzgerald reports, he's dead, ma'am, stone dead, a suicide. What? You can't mean that, Fitzgerald. It's true, I just seen him. He's in his room, ma'am. Oh, there must be something wrong. Are you sure it's Roberts? Sure, I know Roberts. He plugged himself square between the eyes. I came right back here to notify you.  Certainly, Fitzgerald. Where's Roberts' room? Right between the signal tower and the radio room, ma'am, on the third floor. Powers? Wasn't he supposed to be on duty tonight? Well, yes, he was. Does he live upstairs? Yes, we've fitted out a room for him so he could be near the set. Since we've started night operations on such a large scale, we've had to keep him around most of the time. So, do you have a relief operator? Yes, he comes on at seven in the morning. I see. Well, leave the way, Fitz. We'll call for the coroner when we finish our investigation. Coming to me? Surely, Irene. Mr. Powers? If you don't mind, I'll stay down here. I'm rather... Very well.  Yes, ma'am. There's something mysterious here. I want to see why Roberts decided to take the easy way out. Yes, ma'am. You know, I thought it was sort of funny myself. This way, ma'am, up these stairs here. These steps also lead to the signal tower? Yes, ma'am. Roberts lives in this wing here. Here's the room, ma'am. He's inside. The door's locked, Fitz. Yes, ma'am. I locked it. Here's the key, ma'am. Very good, Sergeant. Does the door lock when you first came up? No, ma'am. I knocked a couple of times and didn't get no answer, so I just went in. He doesn't seem to... Oh, there we are. Now, don't move the things, sis. No, ma'am. Mm-hmm. Just as I thought. Close the door, Jimmy. What's wrong, ma'am? Nothing's wrong, Sergeant. Just a hunch. Turn on that extra light over the bed, Jimmy. Right. Did you change this man's position, Fitz? No, ma'am. I turned his head a little to make sure it was him. He's dead all right. There's no doubt about that, Irene. Right between the eyes. Nasty job, too. Look at the size of that hole. You can spare the detail, Jimmy. What I mean is you didn't change Roberts' position on the floor. No, ma'am. I just...say. That guy was laying on his face before. What do you mean, Fitz? I mean, Roberts was laying face downward when I came downstairs to get you. Are you sure, Sergeant? Yes, ma'am. I turned his head a bit to make sure it was Roberts, but I didn't turn his whole body. Holy mackerel, look. His pockets have been emptied. All right, Sergeant. Also, it's inside coat pocket. Aasty job, too. Say, what's going on around here? Take it easy, Sergeant. Was that window open when you first came in this room? I don't remember, ma'am. I'd rather believe it was closed. Oh, don't try to, Jimmy. It may contain fingerprints.  Did I say that, Jimmy? Well, no, but... It's bad practice to jump at conclusions, even in this business. Let's take a look at things. When I sent you to look for Roberts, Fitz, where did you go? I went downstairs to the radio room. But there wasn't anybody there, so I looked out on the grounds, and there wasn't nobody there, either. Well, I called the hangar and the night mechanics said Roberts hadn't been there since he'd serviced the 9 o'clock plane. Oh, what, Fitz? Don't take all night. Well, so I asked the switchboard name, where he was, and she says, ain't he with you? No, he ain't with us, I tell her. So then she says he was up in his room a few minutes ago, and so I comes up here and I find him. He said the door was open. Yes, ma'am. Were the lights on? Yes, ma'am, except the one we turned on just now. And you don't remember about the window? No, ma'am. How about this closet door, Fitz? Was it open or closed? Closed. Just like it is now. Did you open it? No, ma'am. I went right downstairs to get you. Too bad, Fitz. Had you opened that door, you'd probably come face to face with someone who could have given us a little light on this mystery. Do you think that somebody killed Roberts and then hid in that closet?  Roberts' death may or may not be suicide, but I do know that somebody has been in this closet. He may still be in there for all we know. Yeah. Open the door, Jimmy, and stand back. It's empty, Irene. Just a minute, Jimmy. I'm going to step into that closet. Mm-hmm. I was right, Fitz. Someone had been in this closet for quite a while. Feel the temperature in here. Oh, you can't tell that way, ma'am. You've got to look for cigarettes and paper. That's all right in this closet, but I know definitely that someone has been hiding in this closet for quite some time. Ooh, it's close in here. Too bad you didn't open the door of this closet, Fitz. Do you think Roberts was killed, Irene? I don't know. The sergeant told us it was suicide. How did you figure that out, Fitz?  And here's the customary suicide note on his smoking stand. Oh, a note. Read it, ma'am. Maybe you could figure it out. It's just a power. What does it say? It says, power? I've been deceiving you long enough.  Andrew's death tonight was too much for me. I didn't intend to be connected with murder. Send my company insurance to my wife. No signature? No signature. Did you check the handwriting, Fitz? No, not yet, ma'am. Take it downstairs and check if Roberts reports. Yes. And dodges. Yes, ma'am. Tell that switchboard operator to come up here. Yes, ma'am. What can I do, Irene? You might see if there's anything left in Roberts' pocket, Jimmy, while I use this phone. Okay. Hello. Give me Power's office, please. Look in the desk pocket, too, Jimmy. Hello, Power's? We're upstairs. I want you to call out the entire night force at once. Have them search the grounds and buildings around the airport for any strange characters and bring anyone they find here. Understand? Good. Give me an outside line, please. What's that, Jimmy? A notebook, Powering. I found it in the best pocket. Save it a bit. Hello, operator.  What type of a notebook is it? Hello. I want to speak to the night captain in charge of homicide. Yes. Hello. This is Irene Delroy, Department of Justice. Code, Tantrax. Right. Look, we're out at Trans-American offices at Metropolitan Airport. There's been a man killed here tonight. It may be suicide. Then again, it may not be. I want you to send us your best fingerprint man and a photographer. That's right. Let's see that notebook, Jimmy. Hmm. Roberts was mixed up in those robberies. Look at these notations. What are they, Irene? Extensive figures. Listen. Salary to $15, $75, rent $35, groceries $30, furniture payment $7.5. Do you think Roberts would be figuring small items like those if he was getting a cut on the male robberies? Doesn't seem right, does it? Not to me, Jimmy. That's probably the telephone operator. Put that screen in front of Roberts's body, Jimmy. I don't want it to fade before we can question her. Right. Oh, well. Her name's Maisie. I heard powers address her. Thanks. You're Maisie, aren't you? Yes, ma'am. Come in, please. I'm Irene Delroy. We're working on a little matter at the Department of Justice. I want you to help us about a few things. Will you answer some questions? Julie, I'll be glad to. Thank you. What time did you last see Mr. Roberts, the radio operator? Just a few minutes before you and Mr. Powers and Mr. Fitzgerald came back from the canyon. How long before? About 10 minutes. Where was he at that time? Downstairs at the control panel. He left the room shortly after? Yes. He said he was coming up here to his room. Did he give any reason for coming up here? No. Did he say anything to you that would make you think there was something important waiting for him up here? No. Did he say anything at all that was unusual? No. Here. Um, what were you going to say? Well, if he said if Mr. Powers came in to give him the ring, and did you? Yes. I called him about five minutes after Mr. Powers came in. Did he answer the phone? Yes. That is, I think it was he. Why? Didn't you recognize his voice? It seemed rather strange, Mr. Delroy. Of course, he may be sleeping or resting. What did he say? I told him that Mr. Powers was back, and he said all right. That all? Yes. That's all right. Now, Maisie, I want you to think hard on this question. It's very important. Did Robert say anything to you that would give you any idea what he wanted to talk to Mr. Powers about? No. Nothing that I can remember. Did he act as if he were worried about something? No. He seemed well angry. Indeed. And he asked if he powers. Yes. What happened? Never mind right now, Maisie. You go back to this witch fort and don't mention to anyone that Robert is missing. Yes, Mr. Delroy. Oh, just a minute. You said the voice that answered this telephone didn't sound like Robert's. Yes. Did you recognize it as belonging to anyone here at the airport? No, Mr. Delroy. That'll be all. Thank you. Well, you didn't get any more with her, did you, Irene? Oh, I don't know, Jimmy. At least I fixed the time of Robert's murder. Murder? That's what I said, Jimmy. There's no doubt about it. But, Irene, you... Of course, the evidence is a bit lacking. But mark my word, someone waited for Robert in this room and for some reason killed him. Do you think that Robert was mixed up in these robberies? That remains to be seen. I do know, however, that he was killed deliberately. And your reason? Just guesswork so far, Jimmy. There may have been something in this room that Robert needed. He came up here, probably spent a few minutes getting whatever he came after. Then he walks over and opens the door to this closet and gets a bullet right between the eyes. And the murderer? He hangs Robert's body away from the door, puts the gun in his hand and starts looking for whatever he came after. The telephone rings. He's afraid not to answer. He just says, all right, and hangs up. Before he's finished, the sergeant knocks on the door and he has to duck back into the closet. You mean that he was in that closet when the sergeant entered the room? Yes. And it's probably just as well that the sergeant didn't open the door or he'd probably been with Robert. Jimmy, this whole business is a mixed up... Hello? What's that? You'll see it. We'll see you right away. Quick, Jimmy, that was power. He says there's someone fooling around in the radio room up here. What? He says he heard the set go on the air and there's no one downstairs at the panel. Whoever it is must be in the room right next to us. You suppose it could be... I don't know, Jimmy. We're not going to take any chances. We're going into that room and find out. Have your gun ready. You make any move at all, shoot and shoot to kill.


Hello, and welcome to e-fab super cat jab super cat E-fab super cat that'll be something someday chat catch up for episode two five five good ol ultimate quiz game team Thing where we had to guess who were the most referenced individuals across like the internet sort of I forget what the exact Requirements where but that was a fun thing I think so across a couple of different main Wikipedia's. I don't think it was all of them in any case We're gonna we're gonna answer some messages you guys have sent in while we were doing that And I mean, you know away we go. I suppose Way we go a big high two rags. Hi Be careful boys doing is now fine according to YouTube Doing is now fine like Sexual content. I don't think I believe you hmm Doing is I don't know what they mean. Oh Maybe it's like hair styling Maybe to give one self a do or another person to do I Support grumble because I like John. It's a fair reason to choose team grumble. I Think it was Theo John and I Hi, I'm gay actor Michael Douglas look up the unkindness of crows. It's a very well-written horror flick check it out It's currently the highest funded British film on Kickstarter. Oh, cool So I finally exposing crows You know, I thought I said like the unkindness of pros It would be that are one of something that you see in nature is the pros would team up with wolves and fly over Coyotes to show them where they are so that they can hunt them down Because coyotes are the are the underdogs of nature in the in the in the true sense of that word basically all of nature is out to get them except for um except for Badgers I think I think coyotes can form semi cooperative relationships with badgers If you're a coyote, you're high enough to where you eat a lot of stuff But you're not so high that other things won't also potentially eat you like you're doing okay But you still have to watch out Obviously, they don't have a good reputation among humans wolves have kind of had their reputations Rehabilitated a bit but coyotes are still quite disliked wolves will wolves are a lot bigger and stronger than coyotes Yeah Yeah, and coyotes on their own are not strong enough to take down large prey Compared to wolves. Yeah, they eat the little guys. Yeah, I believe coyotes don't employ the same kind of hack Strategies that the wolves do that are so successful. You got to stick together, you know, I Think I already do like they can work together But they don't form the same kind of hyper tight-knit social groups that are wolves do All right Hashtag Grumbo is best.  They're well and a due to you massive Man, I was fucked so fair fleamish massives and then farewell and a due to you Massives of fleeing always got little notes next to it as though a song beautiful really I'm not what song that's supposed to be I'm sure it's referencing something that I should probably know but I just don't recognize it for now There is a great horror film from Fringolius Maximus's country Redacted, I think we can say Australia. They've allowed that now Called Lake Mungo you fellows would love it Lake Mungo I think I almost had a chance to see it and I didn't and I forgot then so I'll Try get around to it. Maybe we'll maybe we'll have a flume park one day And we'll just watch all the flimpy movies With the Wombo words with the Wombo words the flume words to make a make a list If Ringo Ringo Dingo Bingo, what's your favorite film made in Australia? I usually in Gallipoli Peter Weir. That's a really great war film No, Gibson's in it It's uh, yeah, like basically charts a story about two young men from Western Australia who then Go to war World War one Gallipoli It's yeah, it's a and that and that'd be one like for people who aren't as familiar with Gallipoli is like that's That's like an important battle Culturally for Australia. It was because World War one was the first time that Australia fought under its own flag It's like World War one I Wouldn't say World War one I think it would be safe to say is more culturally significant in Australia than World War two words in America It's kind of the other way around World War two is the more culturally significant one In battlefield one in the deals in one of the DLCs I forget which one but the the Aussie's were a faction that you could today get added eventually Yes, they did and they look pretty snazzy Yeah, because I had the they had the the Anzac campaign in Yeah for the campaign in the war stories But I remember because I remember it was a conversation when the game came out because France and Russia weren't playable factions in multiplayer or launch, which everybody was kind of like It was strange that you would go with America Before you would go with France and Russia as a weird because battle for one It's about a full five launched the with the two factions being the Allied faction were the Brits Starting the game started with the Brits and the Germans but eventually the eventually they added in the Japanese Empire and the United States and sometimes the United States in some maps replaced Britain as far as I'm aware. I'm not sure but I think eventually There would be maps where it would be America versus Germans. So I feel like the whole idea of any significance being attached to factions in multiplayer It was like with cooler Judy it started to decline After, you know, like it initially you would have, you know, maybe like four to six Multiplayer factions and then eventually it got boiled down to just two now It's kind of at the point where the factions don't really mean anything Yeah, it's a shame because one actually had a lot the DLC added the We had we got the French we got not only the Russians But two different factions of Russians because the Russian Civil War we got the Australians We got the I think we got there was one naval There was naval variants of factions So they were technically the same countries But all of the units got a sort of a redesign for the because it was all naval inspired So there was there was not only excellent variety in battlefield one for the amount of factions that were present Which makes sense for all or one, but also they looked really good. I think it's a high point for the series in terms of How good the faction units looked Well, the reason why we've got no factions anymore is because operators specialists Yeah, no more classes anymore now. We just got like You can play as homelander now Yeah 2042 kind of tried to go back on that but it it still is they just sorted all the specialists into like classes So it was like a step in the right direction back to what things should be but it's Weird going around in a battlefield and it's just two groups of no pats Who don't belong to countries who are just fighting for those country's sides? And it's just unique individuals that you see that have their own special abilities. So that's it's it's weird to see Hi, I'm gay actor Michael Douglas here to promote Jeff Jennifer Murphy's next big hit.  Yeah, whatever you did. You know what? Look at you go. The producers of Sonic superstars and Mario Wonder have very similar names. This proves Sarin is a traitor Sarin is a traitor Doesn't mean anything to me It will one day I heard that that Sonic game was okay. The Sonic superstars, but it feels like Mario kind of a overshadowed it As it does typically as a series in general Fair enough After three playthroughs of Sonic superstars this gay actor has only good things to say about it very solid title $60 a bit much granted, but it's still a great 2d Sonic game Fair enough. I can't I don't replay Sonic games. I'm sorry me neither. I think I the only son of game Was it what? Did you guys play Sonic mania? No, I know a lot of people have contracted that though over the years It's Sonic one Sonic and Mario the olympics old marriage Sonic the olympics obviously Sonic's participation in Smash Bros. Then generations and colors Sonic mania was really great. That was a that was a really cool It was like it was it was basically like a remix of a classic Sonic with the old 16-bit art style New levels really awesome music though Sonic is usually that's one thing that is you know for one of the most Unreliable video game series ever it is it is very reliable on the music side Yeah, I still hear the music popping up here in there, you know and video game music People I will say the only son of this was very strange I guess now that I think about it the only Sonic game I've ever played is the original on the Sega Genesis Yeah, the only one that I have played Hi, you should play you should play like Sonic 2 and Sonic and knuckles. Those are those are really good Maybe I will I would generally recommend the 2d ones and generations Generations is my favorite of the 3d era Sonic games is Is Hayden christiansen supposed to be like uh, we don't know yet. We don't know yet, but hopefully he's shadow Because that would actually be like I would watch the three song movies in a row. I would just to see that. Yes to see that. Yeah I want to see this happen.  I want him to If you want to um, if you want to be all caught up to date on uh, Sonic you got to make sure to watch the knuckles spin-off show that's coming out in a couple of months Oh, I had no idea there was one. We got to get caught up. You don't want to see it I like Idris Elba is knuckles. I like him as knuckles. I've heard good things You know Ever decent enough things about both of the movies to where I wouldn't mind watching them I I I kind of like him. Uh, I don't think that great or anything, but uh, I I like him Also rags, do you know how to mute steam?  I guess I updated.  Where's where's the sound for that? I I don't know. Uh, it would probably I don't know It's in the setting somewhere, but I don't I actually don't know I will look during answers. All right. Sorry people at home We're hearing blump sounds After three Playthroughs of oh the way I read that was sorry. It isn't about winning. It's about having fun May everyone have fun and a happy halloween to all Oh Not tonight A lot of fun was had by all. We really enjoyed it Yep, I certainly did Uh, I'm really thankful that sonic team had little involvement in superstars It had to have helped a lot you can tell by how much it has polished on it. What's sonic team's reputation right now Not is that just the dev team that makes sonic games? Yeah, they're the team that makes sonic games. That's that's them And yeah, their reputation ain't great as I understand it I mean, I don't even play sonic games. I really know anything about them, but even I I don't know a whole lot about I don't know a whole lot about That but yeah, I'm pretty sure their reputation ain't ain't amazing Uh, it's grumbling time fringy 2023 Hmm. I don't know if I said that when we were playing You should have though I think yeah, I suppose I don't know.  Yeah Yeah, it's uh Yeah, it's not great when you you've just got breeds of dogs that are just unhealthy Like at base, you know, they are fundamentally unhealthy compared to other dog breeds Yeah, that's where it goes too far. Yeah Um, y'all missed the piranha line in saw six as well as the downright slick line more or sad We didn't get everything. You know how it goes.  I'm sorry. We did our best It's kind of funny how that works, right? Like if we went through the Lord the Rings and there was just no acknowledgement of you know Boiler mash them stick them in a stew like even though that we cover like everything else people people would feel just like Yeah Yeah Uh Did you guys see fringies and spawn now? Sorry, but youtube won't let me post the link Uh, is that like a green plague doctor and spawn? Yeah, hopefully Cool. Okay One of the og edgy anti-heroes Yes Well In a timeline sense, I guess, uh, wolverine was a lot earlier than uh, than all of those guys from the 90s I wonder like going through the history of it. Was he always Because he doesn't if you were to tell me to list Uh, like edgy anti hero esque characters. I would have never Uh, I guess I guess I wouldn't call him like edgy in the more colloquial sense, but he was definitely designed to be More of a uh, sort of a rougher gruffer kind of hero Yeah, I guess that's just someone like cyclops for instance. He's definitely more uh rough But you don't you don't think of wolverine as edgy in the same way that you think of shadow the hedgehog is edgy the edgy Coraline efap ever best thriller movie high rags Hello, um, it's on our personal watch list That we need to watch but I haven't seen it actually have you not seen coraline? I have not no It's on your personal watch list then because uh, I've seen it Uh You guys see fringies and spawn now. Oh wait. I read that one superstars has good controls level design physics music visuals, etc Oh, there you go superstars The sonic game. Thank you. Oh Wasn't that wasn't that the soccer game the mario soccer game? Wasn't that also? No, that's called mario strikers Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The new one was battle league. Um, maybe you're thinking of like Paper mario stick a star or something. I think that sounds like a name of a paper mario game I remember when I didn't play strikers much I remember beating my brother all the time in that game because I would pass a lot and he did not pass You need to pass because passing was how you built up momentum in the ball And uh when you built it up to get it to uh because mario strike is charged is really cool It's uh one of my favorite sports games. It was the one on we And uh that game was really fun and decidedly on the topic of edgy It was a little bit edgy for a mario game. It had electric fences around the the field that when you hit the other players into them They would get electrocuted Um, it had like weapons that wouldn't like be employed on the big explosives and everything Uh rock music in a mario game So it was a little bit edgy, but that game was great. And yeah, that was probably satanic. Yeah You had to uh, you had to pass the ball because if you pass the ball you would build up It's like you would build up momentum that was like stored in the ball and represented by a light So once you got it to the highest momentum It would it would go white and if you if it was white it just meant that when you went for a goal You'd have a better chance of it actually getting through because it's moving way faster So that was the key to winning in that game. What's passing? I didn't even know about the momentum thing. I just was just from a soccer perspective passing is really important And I would do it all the time Well, it's part of the reason why that was in the game is to you know, there was a good way to yeah effort to Make it like let's make it like football But really are amp it up and make it kind of crazy and and fun in a party game like uh, Yeah, but make it like watchable and fun. Yeah Hey, look, all right. It's just because you don't like it's the world's game Rags, I enjoy playing it. I don't enjoy watching it. That's look. That's okay. That's okay. He's allowed Like you mentioned netball earlier and I have no idea what that is You don't know what netball is. No, maybe I do. It's called a different thing here Do you know what okay? Um, I don't know what netball is. Okay. It's uh, it's it's it's kind of like basketball You know, I was known in my schools was gills basketball, basically Uh, well, yeah, I mean it's much more popular among uh girls and women than uh, than men I don't even because it's like volleyball But I really enjoy watching volleyball both of my sisters played volleyball in there in high school We'd go see their games and it was like it was fun to watch It was a it's a neat sport to watch people play I was gonna go back and forth and back and forth and see and who can get that opening and get it in Unrelated to today's topic checked out one piece. It's no the shoe test, but I enjoyed it. It was great to see jx He's acting debut also high rags Hello Yeah, I mean it's been a while since this was sent but one piece has got a pretty good reputation now the live action adaptation Uh, I have to see if season two goes Imagine rags got hitler wrong. No, I think you got that one pretty quickly, right? I did. Yeah I had to do it for the memes and he was like 11 or 13 something like that. Yeah, he wasn't He was pretty high. I figured he'd be out. Good old jesus was number one, right? Yeah, jesus is no hitler That's true.  I think someone's just recommended me a name to try Rags a while ago. You mentioned some 900 Dollar headphones you were thinking about buying. Can you remember what they were called? I need some new ones No, I I do not remember what they were I'd have to go digging around for some note or something on my phone to find out what they Yeah, I I'd have to even think I wrote it down somewhere It might be in my DMs with them. Actually. Yeah, just give me just a second Let me Okay Uh, if number one is 100 points, then three is 98 not 97. Yeah, I Well, I both screwed that up and kept it relatively consistent as in Well, yeah, as long as you did that for everything then it doesn't matter Well, so what I did was if you guess number two correctly you get 98 points if you guess number 98 correctly get two points, however If you guess number one correctly you get a hundred points and if you guess number 100 you got one point Which doesn't actually match the rest, but those two could just be considered special Because you get one point for 99 as well, but yeah, it remains relatively consistent. Yeah, it's fine. It doesn't ruin the game or anything Um, this list is rigged Well, I didn't rig it Okay, it wasn't my fault It was a matter of up as we were going through it kind of in real time starting to realize like, okay, I need to start thinking more along these lines then Uh, what I I think I was thinking entering into it right at the beginning Um, I do have those headphones for you for though for who asked about it Super chatter who asked they are the the aeon two noir they're currently, uh 900 dollars and I was also suggested that in addition to that you get the um Sorry, I'm pulling up links here You get a He uses a k7 slash k7 bt desktop DAC and amplifier And he mentioned specifically To get hc12 dual push pull balanced headphone cables hc12 So he recommended these he said these were the three things that he uses the headphones the DAC and the cables and uh, just using uh, just using the headphones And a cable on his phone It sounded very very Very good So I might whenever these ath ag1 x's Finally start to wibble wobble or when I start getting back into, you know Like I am now finally starting to get into videos and stuff I will replace them because it's tough to really get a Shopping for headphones is difficult Because like it's a sound right you can't really know the sound Um until you hear it It's not something that you can you you kind of have to take people's word for it And know when people describe things sort of what they're talking about It's kind of like selling people Um It's like someone who's never had a really high refresh rate monitor Selling someone higher frames per second when they don't really like you can't really That you literally can't show someone that unless they're they're kind of seeing it with their eyes So you can only sort of describe what it is And I think headphones and music is it's kind of this it's kind of similar in that way so That's uh, hopefully that's a good answer to your question and again I don't own them myself. My friend does he loves them. I tried them. I love them. So there you go Uh, sweet crispy critters grumbo pick it up They didn't pick it up day one It was a really Man, it's just a strange game.  Well, wasn't um, wasn't shei gravara one of the ones that was mentioned as like wouldn't be on the list and he was like He was like the 20 something on the list. He I think he was actually the last one He ended up being super high on the list But the only president I think was Jimmy Carter I'm late and confused. What are we going? Oh, it's it was it was easy to understand once you watch for just five minutes. I'm sure he was fully got it Uh rags in his head. Why does moeller always say hi to me? Probably his dementia making him forget. I'm here poor guy also. Hi me We all have a little bit of dementia Yeah, I guess just memory Yeah, sonic super stars is a bad game.  There's no point going into it, but just from what they've said i'm already like so they've No Already just those factoids. I'm like, nope. I'm all right. Thank you I'm I'm glad that they they because I know the actually still ahead and uh, james mosters got to do work for the stuff And it's like that's cool. Uh, I hope because I know that they both would have considered Their respective characters to be some of their favorites across their whole career So I'm glad they get to do more with them in whatever format But when it comes to what I consider canon is it's the shows the seasons and then that's it blocked off Yeah Remember Patrick Stewart is in the Picard show So I can't pick and choose the comic stuff that I think is kind of neat versus the stuff that I think is hyper cringe So I'd rather just block it out. I'm like it's it's it's the shows the shows happened and they were wonderful and there they are And same goes for making a audio drama this late Uh that changes a whole bunch of stuff what seems to be arbitrarily, um Though it got cancelled. I know that and the theory is it got cancelled because Disney don't want them to consume to pursue a continuity line. It's going to be completely irrelevant to their reboot of Buffy Um, again rumor so gary reckons that it's inevitable the buffy gets rebooted And then it'll it'll die on the vine right like it'll it'll it'll have a season It'll be awful and then all the power of the actual franchise returning will be gone by season two If they have one and then it'll just be dead As is The usual but maybe you know what maybe it gets created in a new era where things aren't hyper cringe They're only just yeah, that's true Maybe by the time you know the stuff that comes out in years from now it really will be a new era Fingers crossed you can only hope but you know if it takes a company this long to learn then Who knows get a damn calculator long man. I shall do that next time I thought I was going to be able to do it all in my head, but I uh, I was not able There's uh, there's one on your phone. They come with phones I'll just probably use the computer one because it'll be right next to my notes as well That's the fun you can't like tap the numbers like a real calculator. Yeah I used to calculator the other day actually wow do some things is pretty pretty fun Picking up the old calculator typing in some numbers Hey massives, what did you guys find to be the hardest easiest and your favorite e-fab anniversary episode if you have one also Fringy plays so Wait Oh, they're asking you to play little nightmares and high rags Hello Hardest and easy Well hardest for me is going to be easy because it was when we I stayed up for 31 hours, which I think rise Can you do that with me? Yeah, I've been on all of them. No, I think the hardest You didn't stay up for the uh, the first one you stayed up for the the first one. I was on my own I think at the end I was trying to oh really, okay. Yeah, the second one a while ago I I might not quite remember in all the second one We tried to because it was the hundredth episode to Outmax the previous year, which I think was 29 hours And then I think we went slightly overboard of our outmaxing it as well Because we were talking to people and so I think it was 31 which I think just reasonably speaking that would be considered the hardest one Um The hardest one for me. I think was 150 because I only got like three hours of sleep before it started Uh-oh And then the easiest The easiest I think was the most recent one actually It did go pretty fast. We had everything ready to go. That was a very concentrated like we had video response video response video response, you know, it wasn't It wasn't as much of a multi Do we do a gothic phone on that one or do we not? I I I'm not sure actually I think we did we did trolley problem. I think instead of oh, yeah Trolley problem was good. That was a fun one. Yeah We love hypotheticals here at e-fap. Yeah, we welcome. Oh, yeah But I do agree the last one even though they kind of like not in a bad way But it's tough for me to distinguish them on memory. That's just how my brain works. I guess Uh, like I'll remember segments, but which segment was in which one is hard to remember But I do recall the last one. I feel it was was really easy like by the time we got to the end It didn't feel, you know that at all I I think I was just measuring it by how absolutely tired I was right at the end And I think I was at my most tired That's a good way to measure it. Yeah Told metal to make you guys play out of wilds do it perhaps In future someone has gifted me that so I need to get around to playing it to Not to be confused with the outer worlds, which is a much different game It's fleam versus grumbo the war of wombo hath begun as it has And uh, behold my awesome 26 month milestone behold And beholding I have beheld Uh, it's their fault. They didn't remember washington. Let them sink Wow One team did indeed sink. That is what happened also high rags. Hello a shilling for the fleam supreme and a shilling for grumbo wombo Well, that's nice Well, just use your phone to math. Oh, yeah, I uh, I eventually did I think um It was just too much to juggle at the same time because I had to move images around and then uh, make sure I actually check my lists on whether people were guessing correctly or incorrectly and then Uh, make sure I remember the rules for each segment and then of course doing the calculations. I am Too much at once. I needed a secretary or an assistant like carol vorderman on countdown. I needed one of those that's right Maybe don't drink as much though This is fun, but the acid is kicking in and I promised myself I'd start lord the rings extended this weekend and got to finish house of usher too bligh and hill next Oh, wow. Oh Yeah, I mean hush was good stuff. I really enjoyed watching it. Hmm He was able to stick the landing god forbid Thank you for giving me something.  We were like, oh god Uh, thank you for giving me something to look forward to after work tonight. Mr. Long man. No problem Dev's favorite composer is debussy Oh, you mean cloud debussy. Ah, yes I mean cloud debussy debussy, yeah I'm probably not going to understand a word of this efap unless I start from the beginning, right? Anyways, you dumbo should start at the beginning of ddlc I think it was easy to jump into Yeah, I think so A really fun efap by the way, thanks team. No problem. We like to keep you guys on your feet. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yeah Some cool new formats. Yeah, you never know what's coming next I just got here now. What in the dawn's beautiful smile is going on here What kind of one biology was used to create this moodle's beard? I'm confused The magic I used to come up with it is a secret I'll never share I would like to humbly request fleam versus grumbomirch Please don't make jimmy carter at efap beam let the poor bad rested peanuts It's uh, I think it was it wasn't it as much a beam. It was just a funny thing that happened for a little bit It was just surprising as all that the one u.s president on the list was jimmy carter. Yeah The devs of the game admitted the lord of ring golem apology was written using ai absolutely pathetic and hilarious.   Because that's the the meme a lot of people say is like oh this film was like written by ai And then people do the counter meme of like feel like an ai would do better than this and I'm like, yeah A lot of the ai stuff you would get the lord of the rings correct, wouldn't it? Apparently not they must use the shitty one Um, or someone actually did write it and they wrote it so bad. They were like this was ai.  This was you Yeah, don't drag me into this as a fellow history noon. I'm happy to see fringy and theobis so good at this Go grumble to the panel. Do you play rts games like the total war series or paradox games? No every once in a while. I'll play some starcraft too, but that's really it Not really an rts age of empires was my go-to for RTS Haven't played so any in a while though. I'd like them to make a resurgence. That would be cool Yeah, I feel like they're always kind of out there, but yeah, you know, they're not Thanks a lot of uh, you know paradox is where you find a lot of strategy games Hey, W. Yeah, it's mostly for me. It was starcraft brood war starcraft 2 Some supreme commander forged alliance some of that, but yeah, not really that much Let's make a game of the wings quote of the day two I'll give you three quotes two real and one fake which is fake. All right. So these are gonna be three quotes and uh Since I have to read this I'll know which one so it'll have to be I think we should let rags go first Because fringy's more likely to know which one's fake Okay, sure. So yeah, one of these quotes is fake number one I hate all the cia lopping people do on me number two Why people so interested in my pooping habits? number three, I never gave that kid multiple enemas Uh, I'm gonna go with the pooping one. You think the pooping one is fake. I think no, oh Oh, I thought it was one of them was real. Um, I think the third one is the fake one All right, and uh, for you, what would your guess be? Are you sure the first one is the fake one? That's pretty funny. The fake one is number two Oh That one seems like yeah The real quotes are I hate all the cia lopping people do on me and I never gave that kid multiple enemas The fake quote is why are people so interested in my pooping habits? I think it says a lot though that people would believe that's a real one Because I what I was reading it was like that does sound like something he'd say probably yeah But the first one to me felt real because People would be trying to find out stuff about him And so he might imply cia lopping is what people are doing to try and find out stuff about his life And the last one just felt really out there in terms of How that would come up, but you never know I guess you Uh, hey guys, thanks again for all the hours of entertainment. This game was really fun Also looking forward to the rest of sore. You guys have a good one Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks. You have a good one too. And yeah for anybody listening who didn't know We've done all the sore movies one through 10. They're all in the form of efap movies. You should go check them out. They're fun Now this one it says name the movie and fringy will be the fastest, but uh This one me and fringy will not be allowed. All right. It's a quotes too obvious to us So I'll have to be rags the quote is keep the sand out of your weapons. Keep those actions clear. We'll see you on the beach We'll be saving private rein, right? Yeah Yeah, I mean I was not the only one out of the three of us that may not get it instantly would be Even that it's it's literally one of the first lines in the film I think it's also this context clues in that they could just you get it. We'll see you on the beach You know, that's a pretty clear indication Well weapons and beach you're like, hmm Yeah, gotta keep the sand out of your action What is the first film that you think of when it comes to weapons and a beach will probably saving private rein Oddly enough. It's halo for me Oh, you think about are you thinking about um silent cuts over fifth? Yeah, yeah, I guess uh, maybe it's because I've because of of course our season two watch through of halo I sort of had a halo on the my on the brain remembering the good old times Oh, there's always a little part of me that's thinking about halo at any given moment Like the wrong part of her feels like uh, a really good You know that opening advance on the beach feels like a good representation of why halo is so fun Yeah, it's a good level. It's got a bit of everything. It's got big open areas. It's got smaller areas It's got a little bit of vehicle traversal in there Um a little bit of backtracking But not too much. So it's it's got a lot of variety to it All right, whenever stahls does the thing I picture the meme with homelander sitting in the theater with a sourx expression, but instead it's george lucas Howdy rags screeches for the good boy Oh, thanks Yeah, no, I don't imagine he's uh But you can't even pretend the idea that he likes the sequel trilogy george lucas He must have been like holy shit. They tanked star wars like because that's what everyone thinks yeah Folks what lines do you think a villain has to cross to make a redemption arc virtually impossible to justify? Well, I think there's there's simply some crimes that a human being commit Can commit that where especially by the nature of their mortality They are just not going to have enough time to be able to uh truly Um Make up for it. I get to be able to make up for it. Yeah, there's also It's a lot of there's a lot of subjectivity for this because a lot of people will be willing to forgive Or not forgive based on personal experience as in when they see a character do a thing that they've done And they're like I really wish they can get back on track in the same vein of they're thinking about themselves But then simultaneously if a character does something to another character that someone did to you in real life that you didn't forgive for You'll then be like fuck that character that character doesn't deserve forgiveness that sort of thing So like everyone's gonna have different stuff, but I think we could all agree. There's probably Some stuff There is yeah, like I don't think I mean hitler is a good example, right? There's nothing hitler could possibly do To truly redeem himself because he's done something that would require far beyond his mortal capabilities of You know just he doesn't have enough time and I don't think he has enough capacity to To come up with it. I but if this this comes up with um Parthenax and Skyrim He has a bunch essentially sequestered himself on a mountaintop for thousands of years And had you know and helped humans defeat dragons from you know eight eons ago He betrayed Alduin to help humans and is teaching people the way of the voice And he's become kind of a pacifist in a sense and he So he's kind of he and because he's immortal because he's a dragon He actually has the physical ability to essentially exile himself for thousands of years In order to make up for the bad things that he did So long ago Whereas it's just not going to be something that a human is going to be able to do And yet we try and play with the uh the limits in the form of something like a winter soldier or Several other fictional characters. Yeah well Dial fate is an interesting one because the conversation never really had to happen In a complicated fashion because he died right after his True, yeah, uh, you know redeeming actions So we don't have to discuss what should happen to him next Or how people should feel about him necessarily but people do try to broach that conversation. I think it's fair That's fair to talk about, you know, what if Vader had survived? What if Luke brought him back? I don't think people would be happy to see him. I don't think people would be very happy to see him Uh, I know you like umbridal topics being a secret So can you at least say yes or no to the next one being one of the following flash indy 5 or barbie high rags Hello the first part of what you said doesn't match the second part of what you said You said, I know I like it being a secret and then you asked me to not to tell you Yeah, it's not it's not like it's a semi-secret, but not really if you narrow it down to three It's not really a secret. Um, but also we ended up doing all those anyway. So yeah, all those have had their cover Well except barbie. We didn't really do that Yeah, I guess not. Yeah We just talk about it I mean, we've talked about it here in there. Yeah, I don't think we've done like a video for it though. Um Victory for grumbo go go team grumbo. Yeah team grumbo did it Good good. Good job Mihai cheek sent me hi begittius hill subtleties john adams the spider prophet and gay pinto walsh got shafted Yeah, they should have been on the list, but You know, it's not exactly accurate. We noticed a lot of flaws that gay pinto walsh is a new Uh philosopher, but he's still relevant. I think and should have been on there It is funny how you are naturally inclined to see the list as sort of In a similar vein as the oscars We're like you want particular people to be on there as recognition of their influence Whatever, but at the same time the list is sitting there like bro. I I don't even I don't have any like personal investment in who's coming in who's coming out. This is a weird algorithm Um With this list on your minds play gothic phone, please We do need to play gothic phone at some point We do that's fair. We're uh late on that Did jimmy kata make the youtube list? I don't think so. Um, but maybe he should have he's probably got some youtube videos, right? He's still around making houses and stuff. I think he I think he's He's nearly a hundred, right? I think his wife has died recently, right? I don't know I think he is still around nearly Jimmy Carter is 99 years old. He would turn a hundred this year Cheers And yes, his wife passed away last year I got you Mewbs release the austin powers fab also high rags Hello, you'll get your damn comedy arc when you finish your damn war arc uh You go that's look forward to Now we have animal of the day the red-lipped batfish Just that sounds like an interesting combination of words this guy Oh, look at him I'm ready for a night on the town Yeah Ready to pick up some hot chicks You would be curious to know what the uh evolutionary advantages of that Those lips, but um Those we can only assume And the extinct animal of the day is the cacops the frogs salamander crossover no one asked for except maybe fringy And there he is artist rendition. Oh my goodness flight. So is he he's the big guy. Yeah, I think so I think it wouldn't be it wouldn't be the most flattering illustration What if he was actually And you got You know, when did he uh, when did he exist? I do not know Frog salamander though, it's neat Yeah And that is the final massage for this selection. All right Thank you guys so much for sending you messages for zikwiz game. Hopefully you enjoyed it And um, it will return at some point. Maybe who knows as do other weird arc different ones that we do every once in a while Um, but for now, thank you all and uh, goodbye Goodbye everybody. Have a good day


You divide it by two and put inches on the end of it. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. That's the link to what I'm working with Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, that's crazy small. There's only four episodes left. I'm a grower not a shower Okay, don't do the math on that multiply that by eight then add a hundred Okay, then multiply it by two then multiply it by 15 then multiply it by zero then multiply that by 30 And divide that by a hundred and add 10 to that and subtract 10 to that guess what that's the link after I'm done Growing.  This is wheel of 2k Okay, and we have an actually cracked squad going into episode number nine But I think our pacing has really been spectacular this season with only two losses and six wins I have an awesome starting lineup, but I do not have full depth on my bench Got a pink diamond cow corvore, got a thaw maker that I don't like that much And Ibaka somehow has managed to stay on this squad, which I really don't know how we still got D-Rose and Wang Zee Zee in the 11 and 12 so there's still room to improve Now naturally your next question is what exactly does 6 and 2 mean 6 and 2 means that the worst case scenario is a train for and take The SAT which I think would be hilarious I mean it would be like a lot of training actually like you really have to study to get better at that But I think it'd be funny and best case scenario is a cock-and-ball writing That's if I go undefeated in the next four games. We'll find out today. You guys know the rules four episodes left Let's make them amazing. I appreciate you guys for watching and I'm the madden guy So it's an honor to be able to make this content.  That's not what I want Alexa National Alexa Speak when spoken. Sorry. I don't know that one. Yes, you should be sorry You can take the robot out of the woman, but you can't take the woman out of the robot. Am I right fellas? Misogyny is not funny.  It's not why you laughing Ben Simmons and josh giddy are australian Dude, I think we got to go Ben Simmons Ben Simmons and some nasty cards. I really do like Ben Simmons All right, so what is there? There's a point guard shooting guard point guards is invincible as point guard slash power He doesn't have an end game. I'm not doing end game. Who's my backup point right now My backup point is ja so he can't go there, but if I do get him I hate that thon maker is not power forward center I could technically start Ben Simmons and then luka and ja come off the bench Or no, I'll move ja to shooting guard and then Ben Simmons is my point off the bench.  Is he gonna be a nasty point guard, dude? He's so big oxygen outcomes got Ben Simmons. Hey, shout out australia mate So I think we go Ben Simmons at point and ja moran at shooting guard Ben Simmons can play power forward But what would I do here? Like what I put him at power forward and then move thon maker out of the lineup entirely that doesn't make sense So now our starters are tangus pangus duke the goat the other goat and uh, I didn't up dole jabar And then Ben Simmons ja Kevin Durant So I have now three invincibles off the bench luka and bris babs. Oh, I love this. I love it a lot I really want to keep this Ben Simmons. So I want this done. All right. That leaves the challenge wheel Uh clutched up last time and we ended up pulling the kareem. Actually, thanks our challenge will and lebron We pulled the kareem. So let's get it You know who our only gold on this lineup is Oh Boy, we gotta find a way to score 10 points with the dean wade What's his team?  Yes. I love the alternate jerseys All right boys. Damn. How am I gonna score 10 with dean wade against this squad bengus blinkus.  Hey Hey jump ball kareem on kade. I think I got this one locked up. There was it up there get up kareem Should be an easy one Listen, I think kade's great, but there's just no way he can defend that gotta go up gotta go up luka. Shit Just keep running the screens.   He's making some good moves great defense No way he hits that. Oh out to jordan. So open great three a goat to a goat No, yes. Oh my god. We got bailed. Let's go. No way kareem. Okay What is going on very big mismatch gotta be right gotta be Let's go kareem 10 to 2 I guess one of the best squads we've ever played really Get off kareem. All right. All right.  Why are you? Luka again It certainly works, but it was a total accident. I can't even imagine how good endgame luka is bro If invincible luka plays like this every game Yes, sir 15 to 6 playing great basketball right now. Ah same thing make them earn it I really like ben Simmons here Not my best shot Ben Simmons on kade's very nice match up. Wow. He drills the three 15 to 13 Bench comes in. We're not looking as good, but it bakas in there for a layup on endgame yokich Does he hit that he does not four seconds on the clock? Three one just gonna put it up with durant. That was impossible to hit I have a whole video on this channel where half course shots are impossible to hit you can go find it His team is nasty, but we've shown that we can outscore him in a quarter.  He's gonna pass jordan. Okay, that's fine. I'm just not take this Fidi baka out to jordan wide open three. Let's go great basketball right there gentlemen.  I'm kade Ben Simmons is a beast two amazing defensive stops. He shot a leaner with daryl dockins. Look, I know he's invincible, but Holy derp holy jordan invincible jordan with a nasty rip come over.  Let's get a bucket right here. Oh Durant wide open 12% covered in the greens up by eight once again. Uh-oh yokich is open. Let's see if he sees it He doesn't nobody's gonna do Good D. All right.

Yep pingus Oh Just go up jordan go up right on him Great board out to jordan three is bigger than two Butt naked right now.  No other way to put that. Wow.  Hey 3321 keep playing smart keep ripping the inbound Okay, and I want to reward my player for stealing the inbound. So I keep shooting bad shots Good D. Lebron We are all over him right now 10 points for luka playing a spectacular game Keep getting the screen from his guy. Keep going in with luka luka will score 12 if he's gonna play defense like that Who good pump down to kareem? Let's see what you got beautiful free throw taking us up by 12. This is one of the best games I played this season So far. Let's let's hold it together. But absolutely one of the best games I played so far this season Great rip keep going run it one more pass. Oh my god. I had it and I still have it Oh my god. I could have had more time on that Good D. Oh Oh, he got an in one The beauty is I got 5.8 to get up a good shot Out to durant. Oh, that's not a great shot Not a great shot. Damn 10 comfort. Good release. Whatever up by 12. He closed that out really hot though Do I jeopardize losing this game and bringing dean wade in? All right.   Dean wade dude. Look at him lock it up end game yokich You got 70 something overall dean wade on end game yokich right now great role Just gotta dean if you get the ball just shoot I'm gonna try one more time. But after that I I'm taking this my pocket out of the game Dude, he instantly caught that ball and then started to lose it.  Yes, sir. You got it dean I don't know boys. I think some challenges I'm just not built for and I think this might be one of those Oh dean go up dean dean. I'm not gonna risk losing this game for anybody. Wait, wait, but he's usuring him now. Wait a minute I had it you bro another turnover. No Six unanswered points.  Listen, you can't give me any excuses on this one. All right.  He's got a team comparable with mine. All right. Give me the screen thon maker Yes, sir down to him wide open. Come on. They don't make it any easier He's best. He is livid with that shot got him jumping Crossback Nasty 15 point lead. This is the mostly we've had no way he hits that. All right.  Can we get lebron 10 points eight points in two minutes? It's certainly possible.  No, wait three is bigger than two intentional incalculated five for brawn if I get tamale lebron I get an extra pack Assist does me no good I need one more screen. You gotta get around it and hit the mini hit the mini Seven for brawn a minute on the clock. Let him have one.  All right, brawn a minute. Let me get in my duffy of moves here. Yes, sir No, yes Fashion bailout who's gonna complain about a good old fashion bailout a brawn james 11 points to rebound three sissy all the brawn really has today insane defense He's got multiple blocks. In fact, my whole team does my whole team is gonna have a lot of blocks Green for wade gonna not take that step back go up Once a good last shot does not get it 71 to 59 dominant victory over a nasty team all invincible is in an end game team comparison Wow 57 percent from the field 64 from three 100 percent free throws 34 points in the paint bailout scored him in the paint. Uh, there's actually a three point shooting is where I won that game Also defensive rebounds four more. We tied an offensive rebounds blocks nine. That's massive Ilkich, kaden, jordan were his big scores for me. It was pretty spread out brawn 13 points two rebounds three assists a steal in four blocks. He was everywhere five for eight Luca 12 points a rebound three assists two steals no blocks no turnovers Jordan at 11 points and five boards and assists in a steal kareem eight points two blocks Orzinga six four and two three a salad off the bench don't sell off the bench. Ibaka very solid Big game boys. No, I'm gonna be honest. I'm going to end game luke and kareem. I'm gonna pull in the hill mary I want don't tell me. I know end games are just insanely hard to pull But if I could get no come on wait, it's actually possible on this one.  Oh my god.   Don't tell me do not tell me Wait, no, no, no 71 means it's not dark matter or end game. I don't think I really just back to back dark matters on my two packs Oh, my god, which kareem is better. Okay, so my kareem is way better than that kareem. Okay. Good So I did pull a good kareem. It really bugs me too because I love luke at point He's so good at point. Wait a minute. This lebron can play point.  I don't even know what to say. I can't believe I just did that. I never in a million years I was actually gonna pull an end game.    Oh my god. I just did it I love you boys. Thanks for watching as always We're out of here. Peace
