Trash taste always seems to get on topics i need to hear about at hard times in my life: loneliness, being lost as an adult, hentai...
It do be like that 💀
relatable 😅
They had me in the first half ngl
@@ianpung1774I mean you are on hard times when watching hentai
idk why are they losing viewers tho
Congratulations to Garnts dad for retiring 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
You done skipped, saw the chapters, x2 speed or on twt?
@@SonnyLando lmao 😭 i saw the chapters so i congratulated him
Beuhhh i read this as garnt becoming a dad
Bro downloaded the episode straight into the brain
read garnt as grant today
what have I become
The problem with Connor and Joey's opponion on being an adult is they both had 100K subs by the age of 20. They never had to deal with the real world in the way gigguk or other content creators that had to work a real job and be stuck in a meaningless 9-5 for years or most often DECADES. GARNT was totally right in the feeling of being lost because most people go thru the motions of school and when they come out get a job and soon realize "oh shit this is it....WTF do I do now!?"
"Oh shit this is it"
That realization hit me like a truck bro. I was depressed for like a month when I realized this was gonna be my life for the next 50 years.
@@Alex_Barbosa facts it's insanity that one job unless it's your true passion and dream, and even that can change over time as we grow as people, could fulfill someone for 40 years let's call it 25 - 65 years old
And the fact hes the only one who still actively watches anime
It makes it worse with how FUCKED the economy is now due to the baby boomers and the pandemic basically giving us a +3 years of age with 0 progress, or maybe even negative progress with adding/worsening any mental health issues (ie. depression). When I was growing up, I imagined myself as an adult at age like, 25 with a steady+enjoyable job, a modest house, and starting a family. Here I am at 30, with a miserable full time job that's seniority based with majority of the steady 8 hour employees being there for 10+ years so anyone else gets laid off for half the week during the slow winter months, living paycheck to paycheck, no SO, no house, still living with family, and depressed af. What the fuck is adulting, and when will I feel like one? Shit sucks, man.
@@Botan_Katou literally me
Garnt's story about being able to give his dad his retirement was so wholesome. It made me shed a tear myself. This was such an awesome episode with all the bois contributing to the conversation and giving their own opinions on the matter.
It was a nice moment but your comment reads like chatgpt 💀
The fact the delivery order takes less than 20min to arrive is amazing
Tokyo be super dense
They'll probably take 10 minutes to walk *to*
No way TT boys are meticulous enough to compare stores, probably order from the closest one
I don't think it was 20 min. There was an ad break, probably took a 10-30 min break in between.
@@Mitaka-Asa there was no ad break dog rewatch it they said that it already came and told Kai to wait until they finish the story then there was ad break to when they gave him curry
isnt that normal?
I don't think Garnt, Joey and Sidney will stop liking the content they enjoy. And I think that is a good thing. Being an adult is not about being afraid to talk about these subjects. But knowing when and where it is okay to talk about it. This is why we enjoy your content. You guys talk about interesting things.
What about connor
Connor doesn't like weird shit
@@nousernameleft999vtubers?

@@rumplstiltztinkerstein jojo is not "weird shit", it is eccentric, weird shit is tentacle porn or anime about being reincarnated as a vending machine or horny dog or some shit
I’m 35 with a teenager. I will never stop playing video games and watching and reading anime/manga. He older you get the more you learn to balance things. It feels overwhelming at first but with each year you learn new ways to juggle work, bills, kids and hobbies.
My daughter still won’t watch anime she loved anime when she was a kid but now she a moody teen who thinks everything is uncool. The stuff I like uncool. Meanwhile her fiends and me discuss anime weekly while she stays out the loop cause she uncool .
How turns table😂
I'm in no place to talk but she might feel left out because all friends parents don't like anime and they talk about it at school, or some stuff like that. But, honestly, that's very interesting. She used to like anime right?... Hmmm... Have you tried and anime that doesn't put girls down immediately.. I can't believe I'm saying this but have you tried showing her jjk, if that doesn't work show her stiens gate or some big brain stuff, and if that doesn't work then I only deduce that she likes being alone or is one of the rare people that watch math videos on youtube, or wants to study philosophy, and most modern day philosophy in my opinion tend to turn depressos into hippies who can convince you that the world is up side down and 5+6= infinity using pure logic
@@sinusoidalKant The only anime she loves is Death Parade. It's my favorite anime and she loves it. It's the only anime I've seen her cry and be shocked by.
She likes Studio Ghibli movies. Also shows like Alice in Borderlands. I might try showing her Psycho-Pass and JJK but she really don't like high school based anime weird right? She's 15 and wants to be grown so she watches shows that are more geared for adults. Caught her watching the Death Note live action which omg no child lol.
I'll try putting shows on her Hulu and Netflix accounts and see if she watches them. You know at that age it's hard to tell them anything without them thinking your being condescending and talking down to them.
💚💞💖 I am in my 30's and i have a stepdaughter. She's 14. We will dress up for every Halloween and carve pumpkins. Growing up is basically bs. As long as u make money and take care of yourself, do whatever you want!
tbh i also quitted anime for like 4 years. I was 14 and came back to anime when i was around 18 years old.(thanks to death note.) Its normal that u take a break from smth you like. Sometimes it just takes longer to come back :)
@@nerleanerlea7585 That's true. You're speaking facts. Sometimes we just need to do other things.
I was laughing so hard as an Austrian when Connor was describing biathlon and the boys not believing him that’s a real thing sport 😂
Same as a Norwegian 😂
Same as a Finn. And then they even mentioned Finland! Torille!
@@Boasillwhat 🤣 is the best hy😮 pop
And actually the really good ones in Austria are in the Austrian military.
NGL as an Asian the first thing that came to mind was Triathlon.
listening to this episode hits kinda hard, because im just starting uni and i have never felt so lost before. worried about money, about my major, and just what the fuck im gonna do once everything happens period. to hear that its a global thing brings some measure of comfort.
Agreed, I’m also going to start uni and compared to the country I’m living in right now, the one I’m going to is way more independent and free. But, living here has a different experience of course, so I’m excited but also a lil anxious and nervous of how to deal with everything to come in a few weeks… at least we’re not alone!!
Word of advice, whatever job/jobs you think you are interested in, look up their entry level positions for the government. Take courses based on what those jobs require(including their questionnaire, basically apply for one but stop short of submitting) and you will be far more likely to get a job in the private sector afterwards or if you do well with your gpa, the government.
Also don't be afraid to move for a career, you will be able to go back when you've established yourself if you want and it wont take too long to do that. 2 to 3 years is very short in your 20s but also have the biggest impact on saving for the future and building your resume.
It might sound hard to grasp, but most choices wont really matter. For most jobs you will practically use 0 of what you learned in your day to day work. You just need the degree to show that you are capable of learning what you will actually be doing.
as kid you always think adults have their shit together, but once you get older you realize that no one has any idea what they're doing they're just really good at hiding it
@@pasive6443 Untrue, thats a sure fire way to end up struggling to find a career after graduating. These days everyone either has a degree or experience so you have to tailor your study. This is a massive trap brought about by "common sense" of older generations who managed to do that in a very different labor market.
Damn, I've never related so hard when they talked about being lost during their early adulthood, and as a 20 year old I am so glad I'm not the only one that feels like this because I still have no idea what I want to do in life or have any big future goals.
Try different things (it wouldn't be a waste of time) and it will become clearer. You'll know more and understand more.
i'm 36 and i'm still lost. Don't enjoy my job and no idea what to do.
The great part of adulthood is that you don't have to stick to one thing. If you grow tired of what you are doing, its completely fine to switch to something else. There are no rules :)
@@MittensMan it is also hard when you have to pay bills and maintain your visa status in a foreign country. For the last 5 years I haven’t been able to change jobs because my immigration status is tied to one specific employer
@@nicktankard1244 That is true, different situations have their problems. Sorry you feel stuck where you are at right now.
For the part about people living up to 40 in the middle age, I need to remind the Boys (and Joey) that infant death rate REALLY skew the stats, because it was quite common to see people live up to 70-80 after surviving their childhood. Like, 1 baby out of 10 lived past 5 because of all the disease and stuff.
Them talking about life skills hit me hard.
So fortunate to be raised on a farm, where you literally do everything yourself, cos why not.
Business and finances, Employee Management, building (bricklaying, concreting, woodworking, etc), plumbing (irrigation), mechanic, ironworking (welding, metal fabrication), painting, and a few others. Not to mention the improved problem solving like searching for what is broken in an engine or why XYZ isn't working.
If your reading this I hope you have a great day and someone in your life that can teach you some skills 😁😁
I would LOVE to see Trash Taste start a band. Trash Taste Special when?
Yes. And they should call the Band "Taste! The Trash"
Recycled Flavor
9 and a half pounds comeback 😂
connor on drums, garnt on guitar, joey on keyboard... put chris on the bass and you guys can do a live-action K-ON!
And then they just drink tea after forming the band 😂
hell yeah thatd be so sick!!
Sepiroth as the dancing lead
Chris can beatbox too xd
Nah, give Chris something lame like a triangle. And have him use it once in the entire song.
I really like listening to Garnt. The way he phrase his sentences always draws me in, he also has very interesting perspectives
I started to feel like an adult when inflation ate away 10% of my income in one year. Thank you J Powell.
One thing that makes me feel like an adult is worrying about stuff like that indeed. And saying "back in the day I could get a bottle of coke out of the vending machine for 1 euro, shit is so expensive now"

The retirement arc
Filipino food may not always be spicy, but it definitely has a crap ton of sodium in it. That's why a lot of us have high blood pressure and heart problems.
Amen brother same with us Viets. Maybe spice is a choice. But salt sure isn’t.
Doesn't the entire south east/east asia uses salt. Cuz we're surrounded by SEA. I'm a spicy food enjoyer tho.
And also a ton of sugar.
Depends. If you go out of Metro Manila, there are a lot of spicy dishes in provinces. Most exported Filipino food are basic shit. Province people here even grow peppers in their garden and can't eat without peppers in their food (One baryo in Quezon Province at least).
@@popop143Quezonian here
i go to my local Gucci burger place who has that good ghost pepper hot sauce cant fucking get enough of it.
we also have a labuyo bush
I shed a tear when Garnt talks about giving his dad retirement it was the most wholesome story ever. God, I love how grounded and relatable this episode is
"Trust in the system" that was the best joke of trash taste this year Conner with gold
What are the odds that I read this right when he said it? 22 min mark, roughly.
You're an adult when you have to make your own decisions, and your actions aren't chosen for you. Both being lost, as garnt said and finding your place as Connor said, is an adult.
Spot on
What about responsibilities?
Yes. It's a journey. During which you learn your responsibilities and how to manage them while also enjoying your life.
joined the military to avoid that. I have now delayed adulthood from anywhere between 6 years to possibly 20years depending how long i stay in
@@matthew_natividad
You only really take on responsibilities that you choose so you don't necessarily have any.
Idk why i can see Sydney and Garnt baby proofing the house with anime mousepads
their is an other way to do it?
@@starjunvv4349 No.
Gugu Gaga if the electric outlet ain't covered by fat anime milkers I am sticking my finger in
literal safety tiddies!
Just think about the confused baby wandering around the house when it gets hungry. "Well these dont work, these dont work, this set doesnt work. Alright mom, WTF is going on here?"
It's always nice to hear people care so much about helping with their parents' retirement or just being happy about it. My Dad passed unexpectedly when I started grad school and he had only just retired. I'll never get over the hurt of him never getting to enjoy his post-retirement life so I swore to make it better for my mom anyway I could.
Joey: “I didn’t really grow up with a privileged life.”
Also Joey: “I think a good childhood is one where your parents allow you to dick around by choosing to play tennis or take piano lessons and then opting to drop it anytime you like.”
My mum was poor and I still was enrolled in a variety of extracurricular activities in my childhood including tennis.
"My family wasn't living paycheck to paycheck just to feed me" doesn't mean priveleged.
@@NihongoWakannai That is, in fact, privileged. Lots of people live paycheck to paycheck and starve regularly.
@@Roxlimn If you think being working class is privileged then your perspective is warped. In the US only about 6% of households or about 10% of people were in poverty in 2020, you can't say 90% of the country is "privileged"
I think he mentioned that it depends on how you choose to look at it.
@@NihongoWakannai We don't all live in wealthy countries. FYI. Poor people exist.
Feeling like an adult is something that can happen as a kid, but realizing you’re one is something different imo.
You just dropped the hardest quote , that shit hit hard
Hit the nail on the head, my friend.
The thing that Garnt is describing around 21:00 is basically the Peter Principle. It's a concept in management where people who are good at their jobs will keep getting promoted up the chain until they reach a point where they are completely incompetent. That's why it feels like the people in power in businesses are absolute idiots. They were likely good at their previous position, but have been promoted to a place they where they have no idea what they are doing.
😅
this is the realest, most harrowing, most sincere trash taste episode yet. Life is so hard but this makes me feel less alone in a way
I love it when they talk about their family and parents and how wholesome their family are, man I'm so jealous this really put tears in my eyes :')
Seing Joey just dying while Garnt is having a genuine conversation is the funniest shit i've seen today LMFAO!!
Whenever Connors sitting by himself hes either telling Joey and Garnt off or being their therapist lol
I think the concept of an being an adult is made up of a number of experiences
1. Your first real lost of someone you love and the fear of losing another
2. Living away from one’s parents or guardians
3. Having a job that really has a mass affect on your life that you desire to excel at and fear of losing
4. Seeing close friends evolve in opinion where you question your own opinions
5. IKEA and Bunnings start meaning a good time
6. When you start taking serious consideration of a financial risk
7. Putting away your own feels and desires for someone else without being jaded
8. Start enjoying simple things that you previously thought was lame
9. Kids, marriage, buying a house
10. Finally starting to understand one’s parents or elder relatives
I don’t think it’s one of these but a mixture of the things.
“Actually we found your great grandmother on Facebook, she was kinda cringe-“ made me laugh way harder than it should’ve 😅
This episode was literally just pain. Life is rough man...and remembering the fun I had when I was a child didn't help with that.
fr, unironically made me depressed thinking back. Really regret not sticking with some of the hobbies I had back then
@@kiituriiBut hobbys are something you can pick up anytime, no?
@@thestablepirate harder as an adult. Unless you've done it since you were a child it's like impossible to get into the competitive side of things
@@kiituriiik it’s harder to pick up and be super competitive but if you still enjoy it and the process of improving it’s still worthwhile (at least imo)

Best episode of the year couldn't relate more with this podcast thanks for making such great content
Connor scolding Garnt for not finishing any Final Fantasy game, is an anomaly I thought impossible. But I'm so happy it happens XD
Or saying how he was so invested in the cutscenes that he felt the gameplay was interrupting them. How far he has come.
@@MrEdit-ic7thit's exactly how it should be. Imma be honest, the game sucks but those cutscenes tho
@@MrEdit-ic7th The pacing is certainly off. But as a Final Fantasy game it has reach near perfection at the things it's good at. Sadly the low parts/weaknesses of the game are indeed quite lacking. But I think this will serve to improve even further in the future ^^
Man this has to be one of my favorite episodes on the podcast, as a early 20's, man the first 40 mins of the podcast really resonate with me and helped a lot, honestly, Thanks.
The conversation about feeling like an adult is such great timing because I was just talking to a coworker g about this a few days ago. I recently turned 20 and throughout my 4+ years in the workforce, the reality of how adults act will NOT meet expectations lol. Especially when you have such an incompetent and man-child of a supervisor.
Great conversation guys. Really enjoyed these topics.
I recently turned 17 and I’m about to start my senior year. The more days that pass, the more I realize that being an adult is nothing like I thought it would be. I romanticized it a lot, thinking that I was going to buy my own house, own car, give my parents a ton of money, be able to make my own choices, so whatever I wanted, etc. Now, the closer I get to that cursed 18 years old, the more and more I think the exact opposite. I want to go back to the times when I had no responsibilities, had people who could take care of me, people to lean on when I fell down, free time, nothing difficult, just chilling all day. Fun things are so hard to enjoy when, in the back of your head, you just know that eventually you won’t get to do this much anymore.
If anyone is younger than me, just know that being an adult isn’t something that will make you fulfilled (at least imo maybe it’s different for you idk). You will miss your childhood, so savor it and make the most of it.
You're just about to turn 18! Savour these moments & don't put so much pressure on yourself. I'm 26 & I'm still fumbling every day. You won't be devoid of happiness. You'll make a few mistakes, dust it off & get back on your feet again. You'll still have people to fall back on & you'll have your own support system of friends & collegues. Always try to maintain relationships & connections. I can't stress this enough.
I think you're putting too much pressure on yourself. Relax. 18 is still very young & you have so much ahead of you. Idk I personally I still believe I'm quite young even if people tell me otherwise. I'm not going to call myself old unless I feel like I'm old. I don't feel old so I refuse to accept any other answer lol
I've learnt not to take myself too seriously. Take it one day at a time.
That being said, I do miss having no responsibilities & marathoning anime without care. However, after a certain age, doing that isn't satisfying anymore. You'll get to a point where you'll want some responsibilities because it helps with self fulfillment.
Overall, I just want to say that you're doing great. Go into adulthood with a more open mindset. There is no switch you can flip on once you legally become an adult. You're still the same you, just older. Your prefrontal cortex isn't even fully developed yet. It's going to be a journey, a wild one... but something to look back on fondly. It's not all sunshine & rainbows, but there are good parts to it too. All the best & I'm sure you'll do amazing!
Same bro I’m 17 In senior year 💀🙏🏼‼️
It's true that being a kid has a lot of perks (mileage may vary), but the amount of control you have over your life is pretty small. When things go bad they can go real bad, through no fault of your own and with zero (to limited) ability to change those circumstances. Even when things don't go too bad, it can be stifling after a while, which is why people often feel the itch to leave as they get older.
I think a lot of people are afraid to grow up, because the fear of what's out there and their uncertainty about their ability to face it is greater than the desire for autonomy. (I'm not refering to those who live at home for economic or family support reasons but still engage with the world as adults). The world is certainly not a perfect place, but it seems young people are being told (perhaps unintentionally) that the world is fucked and that they are helpless to change things. This is a negative distortion. We can't fix everything but we are not completely powerless and the future is not actually hopeless.
Being a kid can be fun. Being an adult can be fun too, and you can do way more stuff.
@@AB-ip2ctI really appreciate the reassurance. Stress is a real pain. Don’t get me wrong, I’m very happy with my life. I consider myself blessed to have an incredibly loving family, a roof over my head, and everything in between. It’s more that I miss all the memories of just running around my neighborhood backyard with my cousins and friends. I would be lying if I said I wasn’t scared to grow up. I realized this fear once I got to high school. Decisions I made around 9th grade impacted the rest of my life, so I couldn’t just neglect a test and assume there were no consequences. I pushed myself to be a top student because I realized that my future, not to mention my family’s future, relied on it. There’s more to say on that, but I digress. I am stressed and scared, no doubt, but I’m also excited and I feel blessed to be in the position I am in.
Thank you for your words of encouragement, they really do help. Hope your life continues on the bright path it seems to be treading on :)
@@kunaiz711ay we might be scared, but we bouta be done with high school, so that’s a dub. We bouta be done without breaking a sweat no cap
I finished a trash taste episode and then they immediately gave me a new one to watch, thanks guys.
Same
This was the best one in a while! They covered a lot of interesting conversations and it really felt like they all had something to say whereas most of the time two of them lump their opinions together.
Bulk record -> Go on tour -> Vacation -> Bulk record -> Go on tour -> Vacation
49:05 felt like one of the most real, natural responses from Connor in Trash Taste history.
Chrono trigger is exactly the jrpg Connor needs to play it is short,sweet, age like a fine wine and has Akira Toriyama gorgeous art, it is literally the best snes game to me
Woah as a 39yo who has no social life or relationships these thoughts have been weighing me down a lot of the past few months. Glad to know I’m not totally alone.
Me when Trash Taste first started: "Finally an anime podcast I can enjoy!!"
Me when watching this episode: *existential crisis*
Joey not understanding averages in the "village elder" discussion is funny af
So if Joey had a son, would he be called "The Anime Son"? 🤣
Or the anime boy
Only to gain his father's title after he retires if he's interested
The Anime boi
the anime shounen
The anime Junior and the anime boomer
Za Anime Otoko
When connor mentioned Biathlon, that unlocked so many memories of my mom watching it and me being bored out of my mind being curious why it was so interesting to watch people ski around and shoot targets. All her closest friends are obsessed with it and i never understood the hype around it. We sure do love skiing in finland a lot lmao
I think this shows a little disconnect from the boys as there jobs have way more freedom than a regular 9-5 job. Christmas is still the best time of the year as an adult cause we’re all off work, or work has slowed down and everyone is able to hang out again. I truly had summer as the best time ever as a kid but as an adult it’s Christmas cause everyone’s off and everyone’s in a good mood, something we never get in the year besides that week.
I think they described it pretty well. I work 9-5 and have holidays off but I haven’t felt the magic of Christmas for years now. It’s just not the same. There’s people I know that share that sentiment as well. Good to know there’s still people like you that can enjoy the holidays though.
As someone with a regular full time job with NO holidays all year long and only Sundays off: i wish i could agree to you, I'm never as busy as i am at Christmas.
Unless you work in retail in wich case all of December is a nightmare
Nah, I hate Christmas. First of all, it's the busy season for my husband (mailman). Second of all, I get seasonal depression. Summer will always be the win because even if I'm working 9-5 there's still 4-5 hours of daylight to get things done, whereas in winter 9-5 would going to work as the sun rises and coming home as it sets.
unless you’re a service worker. busiest season of the year
Thank you guys for these episodes every week! I love Trash Taste
30:12 god, this whole bit hit so close to home you dont even realize how on point it is
I just turned 29 and I still live with my dad. But he's giving me until I turn 30 to move out and I cant afford to move out STILL after all these years. It's too expensive, plus I live in a small town with no public transportation and no car (cuz that's already a huge investment and I prefer walking to work), and my job doesnt allow me to even work at competing stores in the area, so I cant get a second job, and this job is the best job i can reasonably get in my area.
Im so fucked lol
Great first step realizing that you're currently fucked, now come up with a plan to fix it and stop wasting your time. Good luck you can do it
I feel you Garnt.
I'm fortunate enough to reach a high position in my career and I'm able to pay for my parents' house tax, utility bills and giving them another layer of insurance as a first usage before their own insurance.
Now my parents just focus on planning out their vacations without having to worry about other stuff anymore.
I'm loving the topics of this episode
Funny thing about asking your Dad about things is that most of the time it comes from experience. They are decades older than you, so they have probably experienced what you are calling them about and know what to do. But they were probably about as clueless as you are the first time it happened to them.
I'm saying this because I once asked my dad how he knew what the issue was and he told me, "that happened to me years ago"
I know what Connor means about how weird it is to see someone saying something completely different -- like the time Connor said to Joey during a crane game challenge, "What's a Cinnamaroll?" What an innocent time..
Just got my first job and this episode has humbled me in a way I'm so grateful for. I'm super anxious about how it's going to play out, especially since I'm in my senior year, but I'm glad to realize everybody goes thru something like this.
i need to find more friends like you guys. i love how you can talk about topics in a very serious and open-minded manner, while also being able to let loose and just have fun and laugh about sh*t too. i love that so much. 🌸🌸🌸
I've been in a "silent depression" in years when i was working in office as an architect doing "real adult job". In my spare time I've started to do some randome sketches to feel myself better.
Just before the birthday of my closest friend I made a DIY present to him - I draw some cool shit in Adobe Illustrator and made print out of this on a t-shirt. I gave my friend a gift and all the guests at the party praise my DIY present.
Among the guests was a guy I didn't know before. He was a young entrepreneur with some cash and he was just thinking about which business he would start next. He was so interested in my drawing and asked to see other works. He liked my style and the humor in my drawings. We exchanged contacts. A month later, he offered me a partnership and we founded a brand, where I would become the main illustrator of prints. After a while, I quit the office and became a full-time print illustrator.
All this was 2 years ago. We recently opened the 2nd store in Moscow and the first one in St. Petersburg.
A life is full of surprises. Stay strong and be patient. Everything will be alright.
P.S.: Sorry about my awkward english. It's not my native.
You guys have a fulfilling job that pays VERY WELL. Let's not forget about that. A lot of people work in their passion, but are paid next to none. There's too many complex determiners whether or not you're an adult and how you perceive adulthood as.
so afterdark is the boys eating and now the main podcast is the boys waiting to eat 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Always has been 😅
This episode was golden :DDD good stuff
We had Biathlon in Croatia. A random coach just came to our school and offered to teach it, it was like 15€ a month. And for kids its super cool to get to ski and shoot guns 2 times a week
Trust the boys to bring out an existential episode right when life hits me hard,
So much of this episode had me feeling every word.
Love these boys
Same. I both got what Garnt said about adulthood, as well as Connor.
Garnt: "We already have partners, Joey. We have nothing to prove."
Speaking for everyone there, Garnt? 👀
thought of the same thing haha
Mind you own buisness

It’s a running joke, you goober.
1:07:11 ?
I don’t get it…? What’s the joke
My parents did keep a tab while I was growing up, and they kicked me out of the house the week I turned 18.
I'm 35 now, we don't talk much, and they still have the tab.
It's a spiral notebook full of receipts and printouts, all tallied up.
Every holiday it's casually sitting out on a side table as a reminder that I was a financial burden.
Damn
Honestly becoming an adult is that moment where you realise that no one actually has their shit together and is just as lost and confused as you feel. Life is a complicated journey and we are all just making it up as we go along. Life is trial and error, don't be afraid to make some mistakes.
Loved this episode. It's so relatable, especially my age is so similar/close to Joey, Garnt, and Connor. All the opinions about adults, who to call if something break, not knowing so many things, man.. can relate...
This was one of the most entertaining episodes yet
About childhood hobbies, I took up violin for a bit in my teens. My mother bought me a violin and signed me up for lessons at the local music school, but in the end that money was wasted since I quit a year or two later. I wanted to just play as a hobby, but the music school expected me to perform the lesson songs in front of an audience, and the public school I was at dragged me into joining the student orchestra when I could barely play my scales, so my interest in learning was killed off pretty quickly. I have the violin to this day, but haven't dared to start learning at home since I don't want to torture the neighbours with the noise xD
Whoever made that cool intro animation deserves a raise
Up until about 17 I had a dream of being an archaeologist. I'm a huge history buff and I love digging around for stuff.
I'm 20 now, working in a car glass factory while waiting for a friend to settle in Switzerland so I can follow him in a year or two because we want to open a festival stand business.
This is the first time after school I've had a real plan for the future and maybe I'll see it differently in a few years but I feel like this is the first adult-like thing I've planned.
Another thing that changed my view completely was the realisation that I didn't have to go to college immediately as a must. I can pay for any school at any time I want and just do it, be it in a year or when I'm 35. Heck, my uncle is pushing 50 and he's just finished 4 college courses in media and economics (he works for Ethereum).
It feels a bit weird after spending 3/4 of my life so far in primary and high school but I really can do anything I want, as long as it's financially plausible.
In this episode we went through when is the best age as a kid, when you feel like an adult and retirement. Damn we got the whole journey
50:10 I am so happy that someone else has the same problem as me! I remember being in plays and stuff and whenever there is something related to rhythm I always got confused and nobody could relate to it. It was the same listening to music as well. I used to think i was crazy or something.
I already was having a existential crisis and then they uploaded this video that makes me feel more anxious, but i guess it also makes me feel like i'm not the only one feeling like that... or maybe i'm just being copium. Anyways, great episode as always guys!!
did anyone else cry during grant's dad's retirement talk?
The Ski Shooting thingy was originally Norweagian military training
Did the title of the episode change?
Finally, Garnt had a food take that I can actually get behind!
Totally relate with Garnt on never finishing those long games. Always spent so much time doing all the early game stuff before I move on to the newest thing
As someone that grew up with them, I have a lot of love for both Final Fantasy 6 and Chrono Trigger. That thing that Garnt argued, that side-quests should be there to flesh out the world and the character, are what those 2 games are sooooo good at; almost unparalleled at, even.
Got my trash taste merch today and it looks and feels so good!
When they were talking about squash/racket ball, it reminded me of when I played it in gym. I was a bad combination of tomboy and clutz, so I wound up hurting myself because I hit myself... shins, back of the head, etc... with the racket. Yet I wound up winning most of the games I played! 😅
What's fun is how Garnt said being a monk gives the family great karma
Did the title change? I was sure it said something about retirement, lol
I feel what Garnt was saying about how when you go into the professional working world, you expect the people there, especially your bosses, to be mature and have an idea of what they're doing. I worked into three places (schools) where the principals were over 15 years older than I was, and they were asking ME (a person new to the school) how to do their job and screwing a bunch of stuff up daily and falsifying documents and violating employee contracts. I thankfully got out of there but boy was it brutal.
The boys are back with perfect timing
As an adult, the only reason I get excited for Christmas, other than seeing family, is the food. In Australia, sea food is big, and chilled prawns on Xmas day!!! Yes, please.
yo crazy timing I just turned 18 and I feel rly lost and confused rn, its super comforting to hear you guys talk about growing up. you've crossed the bridge already but you're still close enough that ppl my age can understand and truly connect with what you're saying. garnt was talking ab that preconceived idea of how 'adults' are that a lot of us have before we get there and ive been grappling with that a lot. like is it even remotely possible for someone like me to become that one day? do I even wanna be like that? lol. but when I see people like you guys I realize that being serious, totally on top of things and 100% stable isn't the only way to be an adult. in fact it seems less and less like thats true for anyone at all lmao. anyways I'm grateful for this episode.
Connor describing counting beats like yes that's exactly what a time signature is!

That title will probably become real after like 200 more episodes XD the boy feel like a forever podcast! 😁💜🖤🩶
this is a very interesting episode with a great subject for us older viewers (younger ones too)
I did Biathlon Semi Professionally for about 7 years in Canmore Canada before "retiring" at 20. I got into it through an Winter Olympic camp where we tried out a bunch of different sports. My favorite was obviously the one where you got to shoot guns every day so I ended up sticking with it. I tried soccer, baseball, track and field and a bunch of other sports, but Biathlon was by far the most fun and rewarding. As you get older it gets more and more expensive because you typically need 4-8 pairs of skis (Minimum of 3) for different types of weather and snow conditions, not to mention the Rifle and the 200-300 bullets you go through, per week!
i have to say this is a pretty deep podcast about life. how you deal with hand you are dealt / luck, and growing older. love this podcast bois. keep up the good work
As someone who just turned 18 today, this is the perfect episode for me holy shit
Don't grow up it's a trap 😢
happy birthday
Happy Belated Birthday
Regarding the FF7R "when do you start liking the characters?" question, it's important to remember that in the original, the Midgar section was an action heavy introduction to the game. Quick paced, introducing characters, moving through a bunch of cool set pieces and kind of dragging the characters along, all before the "adventure" really starts when you leave Midgar. A lot of the the more character focused narratives and character growth happens in the rest of the game, which is why it the characters maybe seem too shallow at the start. Cloud is a whole mess of trauma, and only really presents his cool exterior in the start of the game, before you learn all of the context behind him. You will learn so much more about him in the next installments.
I think it's fair to compare it to an anime where maybe a character doesn't really grab your attention in the first 3 or 4 episodes, but maybe has their character specific arc that makes you really appreciate them 8 episodes in. Is that an excuse for the character having a poor hook and not being interesting in the start? No not really, but also explains the disconnect of why people that have already experienced the original have such strong feelings for these characters and you're not quite seeing it yet.
To me it just the perfect representation of why this remake should not have been just Midgar. There was no need, Midgar does not have the content to support a full game.
I like how hyped Connor is in this episode.
As a Canadian, I can confirm that not for one second when Garnt started talking about Hockey I was thinking he meant field hockey instead of on ice 🤣
really? I thought hockey, i havent met a single canadian who calls it ICE hockey. only FIELD Hockey gets address with a specfic. Because no one talks about FIELD hockey. When people mention Hockey in my province its pretty obvious its ice hockey.
@@treebush Yeah that’s what I meant, that it didn’t even occur to me that he wasn’t talking about hockey on ice, field hockey never crossed my mind until he mentioned it.
