00:00:00Welcome to episode 134 of The Bracket. Today, we are debating the best early smartphone apps,

00:00:05a Nick Special. This is one you popped in last week.

00:00:08No, don't say this is a Nick Special. I said it. We have one that's a little bit

00:00:11more ambitious, but we couldn't think of stuff in time. So I farted this out of my butt cheeks.

00:00:16To be fair, you said you had this one in an early draft.

00:00:20Yeah, in an early draft, and I never said it.

00:00:22But it's good. It's a good one, though. We have a lot of good options here,

00:00:25early smartphones.

00:00:25I was feeling a little bit nostalgic.

00:00:27Yeah, and these are all very nostalgic options. We got a good crew for this, too. This was one

00:00:30where I was looking around the office. There's a lot of people too old for this one, like the

00:00:34Clemmers, a lot of people too young for this. And I think we have a good sweet spot of people

00:00:37roughly around the same age.

00:00:39Who's too young for this?

00:00:40Not among the normal crew of The Bracket, but some of the people I might consider.

00:00:43I feel like people aren't really downloading apps anymore. That used to be the best thing

00:00:47about it. I was browsing the app store constantly when I got my iPhone.

00:00:50The rankings, the charts.

00:00:51I was reading reviews and spending my money wisely.

00:00:55Ringtones were huge, too.

00:00:57Callback tones.

00:00:58Yeah, yeah.

00:00:58I used to pay for certain songs.

00:01:01Remember the commercial night?

00:01:02Yeah.

00:01:03The late night commercials. It was that and Girls Gone Wild.

00:01:06Did that guy go to jail?

00:01:07Those steel drums.

00:01:08Dude, the CIA went after him, I think, right?

00:01:12I don't know about the CIA, but he got busted.

00:01:14He was abroad or something. I think he was in the Azores or something, and they busted him

00:01:17or some weird shit. But before we get into this episode, let's talk about game time.

00:01:21Did you know that you can get tickets to the Used in the Hall in Little Rock, Arkansas,

00:01:25Plain White Tees.

00:01:26Is it worth it? Can you even hear me?

00:01:28Oh, yeah, I like them.

00:01:30Yeah, they're in Little Rock, Arkansas. You can get tickets for 57 bucks,

00:01:33general admission. And again, Plain White Tees opening up for them. Pretty cool.

00:01:37I just was the first band I thought of when I was like,

00:01:38Hey there, Delilah.

00:01:40Yeah. What's it like in New York City? Yeah.

00:01:42What's the next lyric? Something so pretty, right?

00:01:44I don't know.

00:01:46You're a million miles away. No, that's...

00:01:48But tonight you look so pretty.

00:01:49Tommy's a White Tees, but he's not going to play.

00:01:52But girl, tonight you look so pretty.

00:01:55Thanks, local crowd. Sorry, I was in song.

00:01:58All we could hear was Tommy singing.

00:02:01But yeah, that's right. You can get these tickets thanks to Game Time,

00:02:34All right, we got good matchups today, starting out with the number five seat.

00:02:37This is definitely in the late...

00:02:38I would say this is probably the latest end of the spectrum for this full list of early apps,

00:02:42but still one where I think of more as an older one, I guess.

00:02:46Words with Friends, ones which Tommy says he still plays.

00:02:48That was the tail end.

00:02:50Me and my dad still play consistently.

00:02:52There's a few dudes that have gotten pussy from that app.

00:02:54Oh, yeah.

00:02:55Married.

00:02:56Married.

00:02:56Really? How'd that work?

00:02:59Probably well.

00:02:59You can chat. There's a chat feature. There's a profile picture feature.

00:03:03Isn't that famous, that old lady and that young guy that get together every Thanksgiving now?

00:03:07I think that was Words with Friends, wasn't it?

00:03:09It has a new name now.

00:03:10Yeah.

00:03:11What is it called?

00:03:12No, it's still Words with Friends.

00:03:13It's still Words with Friends.

00:03:14Is it?

00:03:14Scrabble Go. No, Scrabble Go is the Scrabble version of Pokemon Go,

00:03:17where you go, like, catch letters.

00:03:20All right.

00:03:21I play Words with Friends. It's Words with Friends 2, I believe.

00:03:24Oh, they came... How is that? What's different?

00:03:27Nothing.

00:03:29Why they...

00:03:30Maybe a little more modern UI, UI, UX.

00:03:35Some heightened security features.

00:03:37Yeah.

00:03:38I see that this led to a marriage, and this is in 2012,

00:03:40and it says the game became popular.

00:03:41And I don't remember this at all because Alec Baldwin got kicked off a flight

00:03:44because he refused to stop playing Words with Friends on his phone.

00:03:46I don't remember that at all.

00:03:47He's a real dickhead.

00:03:49This is probably the first worst thing he's ever done.

00:03:52How did he get kicked off a flight for that?

00:03:54He wouldn't turn off his phone off airplane mode.

00:03:57On airplane mode.

00:03:58That's a... Who does that?

00:04:00Who checks?

00:04:00I do it every flight.

00:04:01I don't.

00:04:02You don't... You keep your phone on?

00:04:04Yes.

00:04:04What happens?

00:04:04What's gonna happen?

00:04:05It's gonna fuck with a mission control.

00:04:07There's no way that's true.

00:04:08They do so much...

00:04:09You guys all keep your phone on?

00:04:10No, I put it on airplane mode, but...

00:04:12Fuck you all.

00:04:13It's a long-term goal of mine to fuck with mission control.

00:04:15Fuck you all.

00:04:16I keep my phone on.

00:04:17I saw on Mythbusters that it was maybe plausible, but it's very unlikely.

00:04:22It's more just like it's useless.

00:04:23You can't have any connection in the air, so why not just put it on airplane mode?

00:04:28Then that's the point.

00:04:29Why put it on airport mode to begin with?

00:04:30Because you're gonna tell me when we flew to London,

00:04:32they said the Wi-Fi was out and we're such good boys.

00:04:34We didn't do shit that flight.

00:04:36You raw-dogged it.

00:04:36Raw-dogged it.

00:04:38You raw-dogged the flight.

00:04:39That's unbelievable.

00:04:39That's been the newest trend now, yeah.

00:04:41But anyway, Words of Friends is going up against the number 12 seed.

00:04:44I combined...

00:04:45There's very few where I combined it.

00:04:46Actually, this is the only one where I combined it.

00:04:47Trivia Crack and Quiz Up.

00:04:49So there's, again, another one right at the end of the spectrum.

00:04:51Christ.

00:04:52Yeah, Quiz Up and Trivia Crack combined them,

00:04:54because they were just too similar compared to some of these other ones.

00:04:56Wait, is Quiz Up the one that was the Daily Show?

00:04:58No, that was HQ Trivia.

00:05:01Oh, what was that?

00:05:02HQ?

00:05:03Yeah, that was Scott Wachowski.

00:05:06I remember there was a rumor that he killed himself.

00:05:07That was the coolest time.

00:05:08No, he did not.

00:05:09All of New York City would stop at that same time every day,

00:05:12and the office would come to a halt.

00:05:14Yeah, that was great.

00:05:14That was really cool.

00:05:15And it was to win like 15 cents, because so many people would win.

00:05:18Quiz Up was the giant one with really niche categories.

00:05:21And so I would pick my category and go against Kyle.

00:05:23He would have to do my category.

00:05:24We'd go back and forth.

00:05:25And you could get medals.

00:05:26I loved Quiz Up.

00:05:28But then Trivia Crack I liked too, where you spun the wheel, right?

00:05:31The wheel with the...

00:05:31Yeah, Trivia Crack was great.

00:05:33The Scott Wachowski guy, he worse than killed himself.

00:05:36He outed himself for having a tiny cock.

00:05:38Yeah.

00:05:38Oh, that might be what I'm thinking.

00:05:39He said he had a micro penis.

00:05:41I don't think that's in the documentary,

00:05:42but there's a documentary about HQ trivia and talking about how...

00:05:46The late stages of HQ, because Scott got fired or something,

00:05:50and they had these two hosts that were...

00:05:51They knew the company was going under.

00:05:52They were blackout drunk during like all the trivia games.

00:05:56It was insane.

00:05:57It's a really good watch.

00:05:58Yeah.

00:05:58Oh, I sent some pictures in here too.

00:06:00Should we start playing Trivia Crack with each other?

00:06:03Yeah, absolutely.

00:06:03Always a blast.

00:06:04Both of these.

00:06:05Why did they go out of favor?

00:06:07I still have Trivia Crack downloaded too.

00:06:09No, you don't.

00:06:10Yes, I do.

00:06:11Can't give it up.

00:06:12Wait, what's the oldest app you have on your phone?

00:06:15It's Words With Friends and then Trivia Crack, I guess?

00:06:17Probably.

00:06:18I'm going to play my dad back right now.

00:06:19He just hit me with a fucking triple word for 30 points.

00:06:22Jesus Christ.

00:06:24But quiz up slash Trivia Crack going up against Words With Friends.

00:06:26Let's start with you, Rudy.

00:06:27Which one of these do you think was the better?

00:06:2912 points like a loser.

00:06:29I never played the trivia games, and I also wasn't a huge Words With Friends fan.

00:06:35I didn't...

00:06:35Oh, that must be hell for you.

00:06:37I don't know.

00:06:38I just never got into that.

00:06:40I was flipping four stairs.

00:06:42Sets?

00:06:42Four sets?

00:06:42Yeah, four sets.

00:06:43Disastering at the skate park with my friends, talking to Latinas.

00:06:47You weren't talking to Latinas.

00:06:48At the skate park.

00:06:49You were not talking to Latinas.

00:06:50That's the only place.

00:06:50Intern David nodding his head, by the way.

00:06:52We even bar from bar on porn stars.

00:06:54He's a horny motherfucker, our intern David.

00:06:56He's unbelievable.

00:06:57And actually, the last time you produced a show, you were super horny too.

00:07:00This is all starting to come together.

00:07:01It's an active trend.

00:07:03But yeah, sorry.

00:07:03Talking to Latinas, Rudy.

00:07:05So I didn't play either of these.

00:07:08So I can't really pick trivia.

00:07:09But I played like one or two games of Words With Friends.

00:07:11I was like, this is so fucking boring.

00:07:13But I'll pick Words With Friends.

00:07:15One for Words With Friends.

00:07:16KB?

00:07:17Words With Friends.

00:07:18It's...

00:07:18Yeah, that was my favorite app ever.

00:07:21One, another one for Words With Friends.

00:07:22Nick?

00:07:23I don't think it's nearly as fun as the quiz games.

00:07:27Not nearly as fun.

00:07:28It's perfect.

00:07:28It's Scrabble.

00:07:29It's perfect for mobile.

00:07:31No, I'm going...

00:07:32I'm going with...

00:07:33Both are good.

00:07:33Trivia Crack.

00:07:34I'm fine with...

00:07:34Didn't you have someone that you were playing on Words With Friends

00:07:37that you just dominated every day?

00:07:38Yeah, what was her name?

00:07:39But it's probably...

00:07:40Didn't we just figure out that it's probably just AI or a bot?

00:07:44No, I saw her profile picture.

00:07:46She has a husband.

00:07:48That's why I was...

00:07:49Some people cheat on there.

00:07:50My Auntie Em used to cheat like a motherfucker on Words With Friends.

00:07:52You have an Auntie Em?

00:07:53Yes.

00:07:54This is the one with the fat tits, by the way.

00:07:57This is the one.

00:07:58No, not true.

00:07:58Do you communicate like in the game?

00:08:01Do you like put out a triple word like send boobs, please?

00:08:04You could.

00:08:07That's not what a triple word is.

00:08:09You fucking idiot.

00:08:10I didn't play the game.

00:08:11Triple Ds.

00:08:12There was a six month period where I was playing Che in the chess app game,

00:08:16where I was just using a bot to beat him.

00:08:18And I beat him like 80 times in a row.

00:08:20And he just couldn't figure out why I was so good at chess.

00:08:23It was very funny.

00:08:24That's awesome.

00:08:25So Nick, you're going with Trivia Crack.

00:08:28Kate?

00:08:28Words With Friends.

00:08:29I was definitely obsessed with it for a while.

00:08:31And I like chatted up.

00:08:32I had some regulars I played with.

00:08:34And we would have like friendly little conversations.

00:08:36And yeah, I was really into it.

00:08:37Really? You had some regulars?

00:08:39I just don't think it's as engaging as a trivia game.

00:08:43I think it's more boring.

00:08:44Well, I'm dying for trivia.

00:08:45When you get someone that will play you back in real time, it's a blast.

00:08:48But if it's someone who's just casually like every so often, no.

00:08:53Vibzy?

00:08:54I'm glad Rudy was brave enough to say what he said,

00:08:56that he was busy getting pussy,

00:08:57because I did not play the trivia game either.

00:08:59I played Words With Friends a little bit,

00:09:01but no one would ever, like we'd play for a little bit,

00:09:04and then we'd stop responding to each other.

00:09:06And it kind of sucked.

00:09:07So by default, I'm going Words With Friends.

00:09:09Words With Friends.

00:09:10Tommy?

00:09:10Yeah, Trivia Crack was like, it was hot and heavy.

00:09:13The sex was good.

00:09:14It was, you know, really exciting.

00:09:17But Words With Friends has been there for me for 13 years now.

00:09:19I've been playing.

00:09:21My dad's lifetime is up against me.

00:09:23But I beat him in chess a lot,

00:09:25a lot more than he beats me in Words With Friends.

00:09:26Was Words With Friends owned by Scrabble?

00:09:29Words With Friends owned by Zynga.

00:09:30I'm not sure.

00:09:31So maybe that's, maybe they copyrighted it,

00:09:34and then that's why you had to change to Scrabble Go?

00:09:36It's still Words With Friends.

00:09:38Maybe Scrabble Go is just a competitor of it.

00:09:40Yeah.

00:09:41So I'm going with Words With Friends.

00:09:42Words With Friends is going to move on.

00:09:44Now we have the number four seed versus the 13 seed.

00:09:47Temple Run is the number four.

00:09:48That's another one that swept the country like crazy.

00:09:51Everyone was playing Temple Run.

00:09:52And that's going up against one.

00:09:53I never played this,

00:09:54but I know a lot of people were like obsessed with this.

00:09:56Jetpack Joyride, really, really into that.

00:09:59Really big.

00:10:00That was fun as fuck.

00:10:01Yeah, it was.

00:10:02A lot of people in the Jetpack Joyride.

00:10:04So Temple Run versus Jetpack Joyride.

00:10:06Tommy?

00:10:06Never played Jetpack Joyride.

00:10:08I don't know if I know what that is,

00:10:10but Temple Run was incredible.

00:10:12It just was great.

00:10:13Temple's always hit.

00:10:14Legends of the Hidden Temple, shit like that.

00:10:17That show sucks dick.

00:10:18Rewatch it.

00:10:18No.

00:10:20It's been a while.

00:10:21But yeah.

00:10:22Very broken.

00:10:22Temple guards can grab you whenever they want.

00:10:24There's no rhyme or reason.

00:10:26I read, I did a little research.

00:10:28I read that the set looked good on TV,

00:10:30but if you were there in person,

00:10:31it sucked.

00:10:32It was awful.

00:10:34It was horrible.

00:10:35It's all cheap, very cheap.

00:10:36All that got B-tued.

00:10:40Uh, yeah, I'm going.

00:10:41I'm going Temple Run.

00:10:41Temple Run.

00:10:42Vimsy?

00:10:43Again, by default, I think I have to go Temple Run.

00:10:45I've never played Jetpack Joyride.

00:10:47Is that just like a floppy bird type thing?

00:10:49Yeah, it's a side-scroller type of floppy bird deal,

00:10:51except you're on Jetpack and you're joyriding.

00:10:53I didn't even like Temple Run that much,

00:10:54but I played it so I wouldn't feel left out.

00:10:58But, uh, yeah, Temple Run.

00:11:00Everyone was obsessed with it.

00:11:01Kate?

00:11:02I gotta go.

00:11:03It was very similar to,

00:11:04sorry if this is elsewhere on there,

00:11:06Subway Surfers.

00:11:06Did you guys play that?

00:11:07Oh, yeah, I've seen that.

00:11:08Yeah.

00:11:09And I was obsessed with both of them,

00:11:10so I gotta go Temple Run.

00:11:12I like, my heart would get, like,

00:11:13I'd get so into it and I'd get annoyed

00:11:15if I got interrupted when I was on a heater.

00:11:18On a heater in Temple Run?

00:11:19Yeah.

00:11:19Nick?

00:11:20I played a Spider-Man version of Temple Run.

00:11:22I forget what it was,

00:11:23and you could unlock different Spider-Man suits,

00:11:24and I was obsessed with that.

00:11:26Um, I remember there was a glitch

00:11:28you could do in Temple Run

00:11:29where you did it real quick on the first turn.

00:11:30You could run backwards and get, like, an infinite score.

00:11:32Oh, yeah.

00:11:33Um, that was cool,

00:11:35but I love Jetpack Joyride.

00:11:36I would still play that today.

00:11:38Another one, or sorry,

00:11:39first one for Jetpack Joyride.

00:11:40KB, you want to send on Temple Run

00:11:42or you want to go for Jetpack?

00:11:42Neither of them.

00:11:43I don't like games that just elicit

00:11:45stress and anxiety

00:11:46and you can't progress in any way.

00:11:48You're not having fun.

00:11:49You're just, just counting down until you fail.

00:11:54Interesting.

00:11:54So you're going to do your Epstein?

00:11:57I'm going to go Temple Run.

00:11:58Could you beat Temple Run?

00:11:59I played it a lot.

00:12:00It's addicting, but I don't think it's fun.

00:12:02It's a good way.

00:12:03Kate said, too, like, that heart.

00:12:05I forgot about that feeling,

00:12:06like, in your heart,

00:12:07like, when you were, like...

00:12:07Is that a good feeling?

00:12:08No, no.

00:12:10No, and then you lose.

00:12:11Could, yeah, could you...

00:12:12It's an alive feeling.

00:12:13It is an alive feeling,

00:12:14which is worth something.

00:12:15So I'll go, I'm going to go Temple Run.

00:12:17Could you beat...

00:12:17Jetpack Joyride, you could have, like,

00:12:19power-ups and make your guy better.

00:12:20See, I would like that more, probably.

00:12:23You could run on the ground.

00:12:25Could you beat Temple Run?

00:12:26Or is it just get a high score?

00:12:28Probably just high score, right?

00:12:29I think it was just, like, whoever got that, yeah.

00:12:31Temple Run's going to win, but Rudy?

00:12:33Yeah, I'll go Temple Run.

00:12:35I do agree with KB.

00:12:36Like, I mostly played it

00:12:38just because everyone else was playing it,

00:12:39and I wanted to feel included,

00:12:40but it was a feeling of anxiety

00:12:42that I didn't enjoy when I was playing it.

00:12:44And it's sort of, I feel like that was big in,

00:12:47like, America,

00:12:48because we, like, all had such cushy lives.

00:12:50Whereas, like, you have to, like,

00:12:52outsource adrenaline to, like, a...

00:12:54You had to feel something.

00:12:56Yeah, and so it was so frustrating,

00:12:59but it made everyone feel athletic

00:13:01while sitting hunched over their phone,

00:13:02because it was so fast,

00:13:03and it made you feel like your reflexes were quick.

00:13:06The jetpack game, I don't know why,

00:13:08I just cannot do the vertical ones.

00:13:11This is a Flappy Bird type?

00:13:12Yeah, I can't do vertical ones like that.

00:13:15They just, my brain doesn't go up and down.

00:13:18I'm only left and right, so yeah.

00:13:20Probably said that about you.

00:13:21I actually don't agree with that.

00:13:22Yeah, that's almost like...

00:13:23I can't relate.

00:13:24Are you Asian?

00:13:24I guess, yeah.

00:13:27I am Asian.

00:13:28Temple Run's gonna move on.

00:13:29Now we have the 8C versus the 9C.

00:13:31The 8C days, and this is early days of apps.

00:13:33This is great.

00:13:33Shazam.

00:13:34When Shazam first came onto the scene,

00:13:36Shazam was great.

00:13:37Still use it a lot.

00:13:38That was a miracle.

00:13:39Yeah.

00:13:40Deceptively.

00:13:41No one can see me using it.

00:13:43Who bought Shazam?

00:13:43Like, Snapchat?

00:13:44Don't you play the song in Snapchat now or something?

00:13:46It's partner with Snapchat, for sure.

00:13:48But you could still,

00:13:49like, you could add it to your shortcuts on the iPhone

00:13:51from the control center.

00:13:52Swipe down real quick.

00:13:53Boom, Shazam.

00:13:54Well, you could also just say, go,

00:13:55Hey, Siri, who is this?

00:13:57Yeah, but I'm not gonna do that if I'm at like a bar.

00:13:58Well, yeah, no, but I whisper it,

00:13:59and then I try to hide it.

00:14:02I hate Siri.

00:14:03Shazam was truly like...

00:14:06That's when I thought technology was a miracle.

00:14:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:14:09I was like, this is...

00:14:09How could you ever detect that?

00:14:10This is an invention.

00:14:12Yes.

00:14:13This is incredible.

00:14:14Did you guys ever try to trick it?

00:14:15Everything else felt like progress.

00:14:16This was the first invention I experienced, I think.

00:14:19For dorkier people, it led to the app where I can...

00:14:21Now, if I hear a bird call, I can hold my phone up,

00:14:23and it's like, that's a peach warbler.

00:14:25I think that's what fucking all of it is, though.

00:14:27I would be addicted to that.

00:14:28Yeah.

00:14:29I used to try to sing into Shazam,

00:14:30see if it could pick up me singing.

00:14:32It cannot.

00:14:33And we always tried that.

00:14:34Yeah.

00:14:34Let's try to trick it.

00:14:36We should make a joke version of that

00:14:37where you hold it up to people when they're talking,

00:14:38and it's like, this is a loser.

00:14:40Yeah.

00:14:41This is a nerd.

00:14:41Yeah.

00:14:42Cool detector.

00:14:43This person's hot.

00:14:44It's going up against number 9C, balloon tower defense.

00:14:46Another one where it's super addictive.

00:14:48A lot of people played that.

00:14:48That was a big time.

00:14:49I think when I was like a...

00:14:50Or at least I guess with a couple of us,

00:14:51we're seniors in high school.

00:14:52That's right when that popped, like 2011.

00:14:54I think of that more, though, as like a computer game

00:14:56than a phone game, probably.

00:14:56You think so?

00:14:57I mean, just me.

00:14:59So great minds.

00:15:00Balloon tower defense versus Shazam.

00:15:03Starting with you, Rudy.

00:15:04I don't like tower defense games or like Flappy Bird.

00:15:07I guess Flappy Bird, you're shooting at a tower.

00:15:09Certainly not a tower defense game.

00:15:10Nope, not a tower.

00:15:11No towers involved.

00:15:12That was the most wrong thing I've ever heard.

00:15:14Yeah, I do that.

00:15:15I do video games.

00:15:17Yeah, I'll give you five.

00:15:18I'll give you five minutes to one-up it.

00:15:21But I don't like defense games.

00:15:24I don't operate like that.

00:15:25I'm not going to actively spend my time.

00:15:27You like being on offense.

00:15:28I like being on offense.

00:15:28I like attacking.

00:15:29I'm not going to...

00:15:30I'm not going to...

00:15:30Oh, I can't wait to go defend.

00:15:34So Shazam.

00:15:35Shazam is unanimously one of the greatest app inventions of all time.

00:15:40Still use it to this day.

00:15:41And I'm at the point now where I think I'm just like over

00:15:44trying to be shameless about it.

00:15:46I want to know the name of the song.

00:15:47There's no shame in not knowing the song and wanting to know it.

00:15:50Yeah.

00:15:50And I'll use it to relate to people.

00:15:53They're on Bluetooth.

00:15:54I'll do it and be like,

00:15:55I didn't know you fucked with Dijon.

00:16:01Didn't know you liked the used.

00:16:02What do you do that's real, man?

00:16:04So I'm going to go Shazam.

00:16:05Even though I think Bloons is a perfect game,

00:16:07I was obsessed with it on the computer.

00:16:09Should we all say what our last Shazam'd song is?

00:16:12I don't use that.

00:16:13That'd be fun.

00:16:13I used it yesterday.

00:16:14On segment alert.

00:16:15How do you tell?

00:16:16You just go to Shazam and then you go to my music.

00:16:19My last one is Stand By Me by Friday.

00:16:21I think I used this literally two days ago.

00:16:23Not Stand By Me, the actual.

00:16:24No, I won't.

00:16:25I shouldn't play it, right?

00:16:26Mine is Leave Her by Lucky.

00:16:31It's also good to use for like.

00:16:33No way.

00:16:34Even when you know the song,

00:16:35like you can just like save like,

00:16:37oh, I like this song and then I'll go there.

00:16:38I'll add it to my Spotify.

00:16:40I think I usually just do it on Siri.

00:16:43Yeah, I do it on Siri.

00:16:44Yeah, absolutely.

00:16:45I haven't used it in a bit.

00:16:47You can use it to see if someone's faking an orgasm.

00:16:52You could put it up and tell farts are stinky.

00:16:56I think you could tell sometimes,

00:16:57but this one's going to reach.

00:16:59Dude, that reminds me.

00:17:01You remember the iSmell?

00:17:03I don't remember iSmell.

00:17:04It's like this famous invention

00:17:05when like that era of the beginning

00:17:08where like i, it was i everything.

00:17:10And iSmell was this thing you could plug into your computer

00:17:13that would read whatever website you're on

00:17:17and then produce an aroma.

00:17:18That's impossible.

00:17:19Not real, Rudy.

00:17:21That's not real, Rudy.

00:17:22That's not real.

00:17:26It would create the smell of the room you were in.

00:17:29Was there a fragrance machine add-on

00:17:31that you had to plug in?

00:17:32Yes, it was like a Febreze like thing.

00:17:34It never worked and it was anonymously

00:17:36one of the worst inventions ever.

00:17:38That's not a thing.

00:17:40It looks like a shark fin.

00:17:42Look it up, bro.

00:17:43What the fuck is it?

00:17:44It is very real.

00:17:45In 1999, they didn't have the technology for this in 1999, Rudy.

00:17:49But like to be honest,

00:17:50we can send visual and audio to other places.

00:17:55Why can't we send smell?

00:17:56Oh my god.

00:17:57It's kind of like sexting.

00:17:59Do sexting with smell.

00:18:00This thing is ridiculous looking.

00:18:02It's like a shark's fin you plug into your computer

00:18:05and it just emits smells.

00:18:07Dude, imagine.

00:18:08Looks like a shark's fin.

00:18:09Imagine surfing 4chan with that attachment.

00:18:12Oh no.

00:18:13Oh no.

00:18:13Did it have to be certain websites?

00:18:17I don't know.

00:18:17There's no way this could ever work.

00:18:19Yeah, no.

00:18:19It's one of the worst inventions ever.

00:18:21I don't know practically how it ever could have worked.

00:18:23Nickelodeon did Smell-O-Vision

00:18:25and something would pop up on the screen

00:18:27and you'd do like a scratch and sniff

00:18:29and you'd sniff it.

00:18:30You had to get the scratch and sniff sniffer

00:18:31from Burger King, I think, or something like that.

00:18:33Yeah, Rugrats movie did it in theaters.

00:18:36I think, yeah, Rugrats.

00:18:38Maybe Hey Arnold.

00:18:39Does it smell like diapers?

00:18:40That was a really cool weekend.

00:18:40Wild thorn berries.

00:18:42I wonder what Barcelona sports smells like.

00:18:44Not great.

00:18:46The iSmell lacked not in technological capability

00:18:48but marketing success.

00:18:49I think they lacked in technological capability.

00:18:51There's just no way.

00:18:52It raised 20 million dollars.

00:18:55That's...

00:18:56That's insane.

00:18:58Real.

00:18:58Shout out to...

00:18:59I apologize, Rudy.

00:19:01Nick, Shazam or the Balloon Tower Defense?

00:19:04I was with Tommy.

00:19:05I played it more on the computer.

00:19:07So I'm going Shazam here.

00:19:08Another one for Shazam, Kate.

00:19:09But I don't use it anymore.

00:19:11I'm going to have to go with the iSmell on this one.

00:19:14I hate it.

00:19:15Shazam.

00:19:16I'm going to go Shazam.

00:19:17It's still useful.

00:19:18Yeah, still useful to this day.

00:19:19Yeah, Shazam, Fibsy.

00:19:21The anxiety that KB was talking about,

00:19:22about like Temple Run,

00:19:23that's what Balloon Tower Defense gave me.

00:19:25Like I like Balloon Tower Defense,

00:19:26but I just wanted to pick the weapons

00:19:28that I wanted to like use and play with.

00:19:31You know what I mean?

00:19:31I didn't want to defend.

00:19:32Also the games you see where it's like the guy

00:19:34with the gun and he's running

00:19:35and you multiply by two or get this gun on Twitter.

00:19:38And then you see like this is not actual gameplay.

00:19:40I want to play that game so bad.

00:19:42Like I want that realism.

00:19:43But it's never real.

00:19:44Exactly what you're talking about.

00:19:45I'm reading about the iSmell here.

00:19:46You can break down every scent into 100 different things

00:19:49and then combine them.

00:19:51The technology exists.

00:19:52There's just no way in 1999 though,

00:19:54that's when this came out.

00:19:55There's just no way that that could have.

00:19:56Are there examples of smells?

00:19:58Yeah, this is like a camel's derriere.

00:20:01But there's, I mean,

00:20:02but no one even knows what that smells like here.

00:20:05That's the beauty of it, bro.

00:20:06That's why you get it, dude.

00:20:07Imagine that on the VR.

00:20:09On the PSVR, yeah.

00:20:10They connect that to the Oculus.

00:20:13They kind of do that.

00:20:13You know what they did that?

00:20:14You ever go on the Avatar ride in Disney?

00:20:17No.

00:20:18They have like this ride there

00:20:20where like you go on it and like takes you like,

00:20:21you're on like a bike,

00:20:22but you're like flying and it like takes you through Pandora.

00:20:24But they like shoot different smells at you.

00:20:26So you smell like seawater and then like dirt

00:20:28and then like all this other shit.

00:20:30It is cool.

00:20:30It's pretty sick.

00:20:31Yeah, that's awesome.

00:20:32Dude, imagine the VR with the iSmell

00:20:34going to a Spirit Halloween.

00:20:37That'd be not good.

00:20:38A lot of latex.

00:20:39Vibzy, so you're going to go with Shazam.

00:20:41Shazam.

00:20:41Oh, I just really whistled on that.

00:20:43Yeah, big whistle.

00:20:44A moment of the episode alert.

00:20:48Tommy?

00:20:48Shazam, yeah.

00:20:49Shazam's going to move on.

00:20:50Now we have the one seed versus the 16 seed Cheying game.

00:20:52We'll do Cheying game first.

00:20:53In honor of Chey, we'll do the flashlight app.

00:20:56Chey's been using the flashlight app forever.

00:20:59Still have been using the flashlight app well long after.

00:21:01We were on an episode here.

00:21:02Chey didn't know that the phone had a flashlight.

00:21:04He still had a flashlight app on his phone that he paid for.

00:21:06Yeah, that was just the color yellow.

00:21:08I was curious.

00:21:09I was like, what do you mean flashlight app?

00:21:11It just turns your screen white.

00:21:13Yeah.

00:21:13It wasn't even the front facing flashlight.

00:21:15It was just like...

00:21:16I mean, to be fair, it was useful for a bit before you had the flashlight.

00:21:20Before they had it.

00:21:20You guys think it worked?

00:21:21It was effective?

00:21:22Not well, but it was better than nothing.

00:21:24Better than nothing.

00:21:25Pre-flashlight.

00:21:26Yeah, I'm sure it was great.

00:21:28Then iMovie before all the other video editing.

00:21:31I used to be able to make movie trailers on iMovie,

00:21:35like with different themes.

00:21:37You guys ever do that?

00:21:37Know what I'm talking about?

00:21:38You can make like a horror trailer, or like a Bollywood trailer, or an action trailer.

00:21:44A horror trailer.

00:21:45I'll tell you what, right there.

00:21:46A horror trailer, see?

00:21:48I can't make it, fellas.

00:21:49I got to go make my horror trailers.

00:21:50Did I say it weird?

00:21:51Was everybody...

00:21:52Yeah.

00:21:52Horror.

00:21:53Horror?

00:21:54Say it like an Atlantic accent.

00:21:58Horror?

00:22:00Whatever.

00:22:00Horror.

00:22:00I used to be...

00:22:01There's the moment of the episode, Bibsy.

00:22:04One up, I used to make so many trailers.

00:22:06Places I Pooped.

00:22:08Another one of Tommy's?

00:22:08Yeah.

00:22:08And also, Kate, you had it on your list too.

00:22:10A poop map I had.

00:22:11Yeah, poop map.

00:22:12That was public restrooms that you could shit at, right?

00:22:14No, no, no.

00:22:14You would drop a pin on places that you took a shit.

00:22:17So I got Mount Rushmore, building JFK got shot from, some of my top poops.

00:22:21I don't know this.

00:22:22After a few years, it was cool to zoom out and be like, I...

00:22:25I've packed.

00:22:27Mine would just be my apartment.

00:22:28Yeah.

00:22:30Nothing but one spot.

00:22:31Paper toss, where it's like you throw the paper into the garbage truck.

00:22:34That was a good one.

00:22:35That was early app, yeah.

00:22:38Pandora Radio, which was huge pre...

00:22:42I paid for that like way too long.

00:22:45I still fucking do.

00:22:46This one, I don't really know.

00:22:46Talking Tom.

00:22:47I think it's like one of those ones where you speak and it speaks back to you.

00:22:50It was a cat.

00:22:51I was big on that.

00:22:51I've seen the memes of it.

00:22:52I've never really used it.

00:22:54Unblock Me, which is like the one where you have to move the blocks to solve the maze, kind of.

00:22:58Oh, yeah.

00:23:00This one, I didn't know, Nick.

00:23:02The Pocket God.

00:23:04Oh, Pocket God, I loved.

00:23:05Yeah, it was like the first app I paid money for.

00:23:07You had these little villagers on an island.

00:23:08You could shoot them with lightning.

00:23:10You just got to experiment on little bribesmen.

00:23:14The Constellation app.

00:23:16I don't know if you guys have ever used this, but a lot of people have been in the...

00:23:18Used it this weekend.

00:23:19Where you look around and see the constellation.

00:23:21It's cool.

00:23:22Because I was finally out of somewhere where there was no light pollution,

00:23:24and I just brought my phone up and I found cancer, because that's what I am.

00:23:27I found...

00:23:28They found some cancer.

00:23:29I still use that, dude.

00:23:30I love that shit.

00:23:30No, you don't.

00:23:31You do that for pussy.

00:23:32No, I just like space furniture.

00:23:33Oh, my God.

00:23:34I'm a Rising Libra too.

00:23:36Oh, my God.

00:23:36And it actually works?

00:23:37What time were you born?

00:23:39That is cool.

00:23:41Here's Orion's belt.

00:23:42It's really awesome.

00:23:44It uses your orientation or whatever, yeah.

00:23:47And then one person submitted, it made me laugh, the Bruh button,

00:23:50which must have been the most short-lived app in history.

00:23:53And I think I...

00:23:53Wait, what was it?

00:23:54It would just say Bruh?

00:23:55It would just say Bruh.

00:23:56Which does sound familiar.

00:23:58Let's see.

00:23:58I think I downloaded it.

00:24:01Let's see if I can get...

00:24:01They had a data phase of that where it was just sound effects.

00:24:04I remember there was a Samuel L. Jackson soundboard app.

00:24:07And on Xbox Live, me and my friends had fucking some crazy nights, bro.

00:24:12Crazy nights with that Samuel L. Jackson soundboard.

00:24:15What was the name of the website with all the soundboards?

00:24:17You ever do the Sped Ed soundboard?

00:24:19E-bombs, yeah.

00:24:20Special Ed soundboard.

00:24:21I used to do so many prank calls.

00:24:24Oh, that was easy.

00:24:24That was a pretty...

00:24:25You need a whole app for that.

00:24:27Unbelievable.

00:24:28I don't know if you guys remember this or ever used it,

00:24:30but my favorite was the Caller ID Faker app.

00:24:32Yes.

00:24:33Call someone and it shows up as a different...

00:24:35That could destroy the line.

00:24:36That's exactly what I did, yeah.

00:24:38You broke apart marriages, did you not?

00:24:40Not marriages.

00:24:41No.

00:24:42Relationships.

00:24:43We used to do...

00:24:43Engagements.

00:24:45You could have two places call each other.

00:24:47We would do that one a lot.

00:24:48And have two dominoes call each other or whatever.

00:24:50Oh, yeah.

00:24:51And they would record it.

00:24:52Those were fun.

00:24:53Someone did that to me and Dave a year ago.

00:24:56Oh, my God.

00:24:56That's horrifying.

00:24:57Yeah.

00:24:59That's a terrorist attack.

00:25:00Yeah.

00:25:01That's jailable.

00:25:02So to go through the options again,

00:25:03the Flashlight app, Paper Toss, Places I Pooped, Pandora,

00:25:07Talking Tom, Unblock Me, Pocket God, the Bruh button,

00:25:11Constellation app, the Caller ID app.

00:25:13Starting with you, Tomi.

00:25:14I have one more to add.

00:25:15Yes, add it.

00:25:15Do you remember the...

00:25:16From 2008, it was the I Am Rich app?

00:25:18No.

00:25:19It was only up for like 24 hours,

00:25:20but it was like this $1,000 app.

00:25:23And it just put a button on your phone that when you press it,

00:25:25it was like, I am rich.

00:25:25Oh, I think I remember this.

00:25:27And it was only up for like 24 hours,

00:25:29but it sold a ton because a ton of people wanted that on their phones.

00:25:33That's pretty cool.

00:25:34It's a $1,000 NFT.

00:25:36Yeah.

00:25:36It's like having a bathing ape.

00:25:38It's called I Am Rich.

00:25:39Today, it would cost like $1,400 something dollars.

00:25:42It was $9.99 at the time.

00:25:44I was trying to find a video.

00:25:45It's just this guy's like a full 20 minute review.

00:25:46I just want to see someone press the button.

00:25:48It's just a red button.

00:25:50Starting with you, Tomi.

00:25:51Which chain apps do you want?

00:25:52I'm really torn between iMovie and Paper Toss.

00:25:54iMovie was such a formidable part of me.

00:25:58Probably, I probably wouldn't even work here if it wasn't for iMovie.

00:26:01That made me love making videos.

00:26:04But Paper Toss was unreal.

00:26:07One for Paper Toss?

00:26:08Vivzi?

00:26:08No.

00:26:09I didn't finish.

00:26:10That was a long pause.

00:26:11I'm going iMovie.

00:26:12You're going with iMovie?

00:26:13Yeah, I'm going with iMovie Trailers.

00:26:15Tell you what, that's not going to win.

00:26:18Well, I'm going Paper Toss.

00:26:19Paper Toss is like the original app game.

00:26:22I hope it moves on, but stay true to myself.

00:26:25Yeah, Paper Toss.

00:26:26Paper Toss was huge.

00:26:27I feel like it was the first app I ever got an ad on.

00:26:30Interesting.

00:26:31Like, remember when the games?

00:26:32Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:26:34Are you sure Paper Toss was the first one that was,

00:26:36and they put the X out button, like one pixel in the corner?

00:26:42So Paper Toss getting one vote?

00:26:44Kate?

00:26:45I, so for like all my editing, because I have tried to learn how,

00:26:50I've downloaded Adobe and all that shit like 10 times.

00:26:53But I still do all my photo editing on Instagram stories.

00:26:56I'll go in there, edit a photo, save it, and post it on bars or whatever.

00:27:00During the pandemic, when they were like,

00:27:02everybody's on their own for editing videos, I couldn't figure it out.

00:27:05So I did iMovie for a while.

00:27:07I did like, I learned magic in my apartment and then did a whole series, a blog series.

00:27:12So it was all edited in iMovie.

00:27:14Got no views.

00:27:15It's so sad.

00:27:17I gotta say iMovie.

00:27:18I did a lot of, I couldn't figure out how to edit TikTok.

00:27:21You did a series where you did magic tricks?

00:27:23What was the trick?

00:27:24You made the view.

00:27:24I'm looking, boys.

00:27:27I did a whole magic show.

00:27:29So I would come out of the doorway, the floating cereal box.

00:27:33I could make a cereal box levitate in front of me,

00:27:35and I could change my shirt with the flip of a thing.

00:27:39I like learned like seven good tricks.

00:27:41I bet everybody in this room went through a magic phase.

00:27:44Everybody goes through it.

00:27:45I was paying money.

00:27:48I was buying tricks online.

00:27:49Oh, me too.

00:27:50Penguinmagic.com.

00:27:51Penguin magic.

00:27:52Yeah, I bought the $2 bill folded to the two ones.

00:27:56That was, I used to do that in high school football games.

00:27:58Anyone ever buy a levitating deck of cards?

00:27:59The D-lights.

00:28:01I bought a DVD to learn how to bend forks.

00:28:04Well, I think we all bought a kit at one point.

00:28:07They used to sell those like crazy.

00:28:08When I was younger, I had a kit.

00:28:09This is gonna be a hot take.

00:28:10I don't like magic.

00:28:11I hate it.

00:28:12When I'm somewhere and someone approaches me and tries to do magic, ugh.

00:28:15How many times did people approach you to do magic?

00:28:17You'd be surprised.

00:28:19You look like someone that would be awed by magic.

00:28:20Right.

00:28:20I was at an indie 500 suite and they had a guy doing magic.

00:28:25The man was like 90 years old and he cornered me and was like,

00:28:28hey, here's card tricks.

00:28:29And I was like, oh no.

00:28:31Don't do a trick on me.

00:28:32I don't know.

00:28:32I just don't like to be deceived like that.

00:28:34I know it's fake.

00:28:36Nobody trick him.

00:28:40I think the paper toss is like the perfect boredom game.

00:28:44It even puts you in a boring setting.

00:28:46It's super fun.

00:28:47I loved it.

00:28:48And it got heated.

00:28:49I'm doing paper toss.

00:28:50I think Tommy Smokes and I talked about this when we're talking about basketball.

00:28:52There's just something about putting a ball into a hoop that you can just do a billion times.

00:28:55Oh, it's great.

00:28:56You feel so accomplished when you get that paper in the trash can.

00:28:59Exactly.

00:29:00So we're two for paper toss, two for iMovie.

00:29:03KB?

00:29:05So was there a point in time when Pandora was the only way to listen to music?

00:29:10iTunes and it was that, I feel like.

00:29:12Buying music.

00:29:12There was iTunes.

00:29:13Oh yeah, I'm going paper toss.

00:29:15Paper toss.

00:29:15Three for paper toss, two for iMovie.

00:29:17Rudy?

00:29:20Paper toss was huge, but Nick completely reminded me of Pocket God.

00:29:25I totally remember Pocket God.

00:29:26Pocket God was fucking awesome.

00:29:28Yeah.

00:29:28You could have natural disaster.

00:29:31Yeah, you could just wipe out.

00:29:33You could see them make love.

00:29:35It was like the Sims, but then they would evolve.

00:29:37Just on an island.

00:29:38Yeah, it was cool.

00:29:38So fun.

00:29:39Also, I want to give a shout out to one I forgot, which was Alchemy.

00:29:42Alchemy was fucking sick.

00:29:44It was a game where you start with basic elements and you combine them,

00:29:47and then you get rare and rare things,

00:29:49and you could just build all the way to computer chips and everything.

00:29:52That game was sick.

00:29:53It's basically the original version of Infinite Craft.

00:29:55Right.

00:29:55I didn't know that existed for this long.

00:29:57That game was sick, but I got to go with Pocket God.

00:29:59Pocket God was so fun.

00:30:01I forgot, too.

00:30:01Do you guys ever play, I think it was called just Pandemic?

00:30:04You would just try to make a virus to take over the world?

00:30:06I think it did it on a computer, though.

00:30:08No, there was a phone game.

00:30:09It was like red and black logo.

00:30:10It scared me too much.

00:30:12It was so hard to kill Madagascar, because as soon as Madagascar shut down their airports,

00:30:16you couldn't get them.

00:30:17Bastards.

00:30:18But if you start there, it takes too long to get everywhere else.

00:30:20It was a whole process.

00:30:21I might just be criminally horny, but Pocket God sounds like a fleshlight.

00:30:24Yeah, it does.

00:30:26Kind of does.

00:30:27All right.

00:30:27So that's going to be going up against our number one seed,

00:30:30and this is, I think, one of the more obvious ones you can imagine.

00:30:33It's iBeer.

00:30:34iBeer, the app where you get to drink a beer virtually.

00:30:38Is that where the phones?

00:30:39Oh, yeah.

00:30:42Now, that was technology.

00:30:44How the fuck's he doing that?

00:30:46Oh, yeah, that's exactly it.

00:30:49Oh, it's so sick.

00:30:50Turn it.

00:30:51Turn it up.

00:30:52Drink it up.

00:30:55You ready?

00:30:57People would go crazy for that.

00:30:59I just downloaded it.

00:31:01Dude, it's incredible.

00:31:02We should make a branded one.

00:31:04I just wanted to do it once.

00:31:06I just wanted to get out of the way at least one time.

00:31:08But yeah, iBeer.

00:31:10This is one, especially in the early ages of the smartphone,

00:31:12every kid wanted to have this because it just looks so fucking cool.

00:31:15So iBeer is going to be going up against the winner of our chain game,

00:31:20which is Paper Toss.

00:31:21So Paper Toss versus iBeer.

00:31:23Rudy.

00:31:25Rudy's drinking a beer right now.

00:31:27That's sick.

00:31:28iBeer, dude.

00:31:28Oh, my God.

00:31:29We're going to get Dana here.

00:31:29I was going to say, Dana, do the iBeer tweet.

00:31:34Do the iBeer tweet.

00:31:37Have you guys seen how fast Dana chugs?

00:31:40Wait.

00:31:46The era where they first had the accelerometer,

00:31:48I think it's called in the phone.

00:31:50That was the best where I just blew my mind that the phone moving

00:31:54was able to respond to an app.

00:31:56I thought it was like, I don't know that.

00:31:58Yeah, it was insane.

00:31:59And they had other games like the monkey game where you're in a little ball

00:32:03and you had to balance like this.

00:32:05It wasn't that good.

00:32:07But still, that just blew my mind.

00:32:09iBeer.

00:32:11It's kind of like Shazam.

00:32:12Or you're just like, wow, this technology.

00:32:14How does this work?

00:32:15This is magic, which I don't like.

00:32:18Yeah, I don't like magic.

00:32:19For $2.99, you can buy Guinness.

00:32:21Yeah, there's like skins you can buy for it.

00:32:24You can get like Stella.

00:32:25Boys, I'm about to have a fucking ride to Guinness.

00:32:29KB.

00:32:29Do you have a battle pack?

00:32:30And I got the ads off of here.

00:32:32OK, there we go.

00:32:35Yeah, this, I mean, this.

00:32:36Oh, look at it.

00:32:40That's a good head on the top.

00:32:41Give it a chug.

00:32:41It has the condensation.

00:32:44Hell yeah.

00:32:45Oh, I unlocked so many good beers.

00:32:47Nick, you're about to get fucked up.

00:32:48You actually need this app because you can't drink beer.

00:32:52Yeah, and when my breath is bad afterwards.

00:32:54Mouthwash, dude.

00:32:57And nobody will know.

00:32:58Like, it'll fool people.

00:32:59This is St. Patrick's Day.

00:33:01This is so sick.

00:33:02Dude, battle pack.

00:33:03That's ridiculous.

00:33:04Oh, they have cola.

00:33:05They have all kinds of drinks now.

00:33:06Only $2.50.

00:33:08Only $2.50.

00:33:10Uh, so one for iBeer right now from Rudy, KB.

00:33:14Um, I don't know how much use I got out of it,

00:33:17but it was it was like it single handedly like caused me to buy an iPod.

00:33:22Just to get iBeer?

00:33:24Yes, for the it was that in like the popcorn popping.

00:33:27Yeah.

00:33:28This is going iBeer.

00:33:29There's different settings.

00:33:31Two for iBeer, Nick.

00:33:34iBeer, obviously.

00:33:36I can change the type of machine.

00:33:38iBeer, the enthusiasm is contagious.

00:33:41Wait, there's video tutorials.

00:33:44On what?

00:33:44How to drink beer?

00:33:45How to drink iBeer?

00:33:47Oh, this is sick.

00:33:49I remember all my buddies had it.

00:33:51It was like a big.

00:33:52And we can all legally drink.

00:33:53So like, it's not even like it's like that.

00:33:55It still is that cool.

00:33:56Uh, Vibzy.

00:33:57Yeah, I love the iBeer.

00:33:58Popcorn's on here.

00:33:59Popcorn was great.

00:34:01Maybe better.

00:34:02Is it just the same?

00:34:03It pops and now it pops.

00:34:05Yeah, all right.

00:34:06Uh, yeah, I love the iBeer, but Paper Toss.

00:34:10There's something about putting a ball in a hoop.

00:34:13I'm going Paper Toss, too.

00:34:14I don't know if I really ever played iBeer.

00:34:16iBeer was fun for five seconds.

00:34:19Longer than that.

00:34:20Yeah, I wasn't 21.

00:34:22So iBeer is going to move on before we get to the second half.

00:34:24Let's talk about a good old BetterHelp.

00:34:28This show, The Bracket, is sponsored by BetterHelp.

00:34:30Comparison is the thief of joy.

00:34:34And it's easy to envy other people's lives.

00:34:35It might look like we have it all together on Instagram or whatever, but sometimes they don't.

00:34:38Therapy can help you focus on what you want instead of what others have so that you can

00:34:41start living your best life.

00:34:42Talked about BetterHelp all the time.

00:34:43Used it over COVID.

00:34:44It was awesome.

00:34:44Didn't have to go to a physical office, which is the worst.

00:34:46Taking all the time of your day to go someplace, whatever.

00:34:48Stinks.

00:34:49Uh, if you're thinking of getting therapy a try, give BetterHelp a try.

00:34:52It's entirely online, designed to be convenient, flexible, and suited to your schedule.

00:34:55Just fill out a brief questionnaire and get matched with a licensed therapist.

00:34:57And switch therapists at any time for no additional charge.

00:34:59Stop comparing and start focusing with BetterHelp.

00:35:01Visit BetterHelp.com slash lights.

00:35:03Today, you get 10% off your first month.

00:35:04That's BetterHelp.com slash lights.

00:35:07All right.

00:35:07Shout out to BetterHelp.

00:35:08On the other side of the lighter.

00:35:10A very, or there's a lighter.

00:35:11The other side of the bracket.

00:35:12A very similar one to the beer one.

00:35:14The Zippo lighter app.

00:35:16The one where you pull out a Zippo.

00:35:18Oh yeah.

00:35:18This is along the lines.

00:35:20Yeah.

00:35:20There's another one.

00:35:21I got it too.

00:35:23I don't know if you can see it.

00:35:23That was a good, good feel.

00:35:25Good sound.

00:35:27The sound is incredible.

00:35:28Let's see how loud it can.

00:35:30And you can also, I don't even think you need to use your finger all the time.

00:35:32You can flick it open.

00:35:34Oh yeah.

00:35:34Oh, that's cool.

00:35:35That's good stuff.

00:35:35Like a real cowboy.

00:35:37And it turns your flashlight on.

00:35:38Exactly.

00:35:39Yeah.

00:35:39So the Zippo lighter app.

00:35:40And that's going up.

00:35:41It's number 11 seed.

00:35:41Another one closer to the end of the spectrum, I guess.

00:35:44Maybe.

00:35:45Or maybe it's probably around the same as Angry Birds.

00:35:48Around Angry Birds.

00:35:49But Angry Birds is the answer.

00:35:50Angry Birds versus the Zippo lighter app.

00:35:52And we'll start with you again, Rudy, since Tommy just left.

00:35:55Zippo.

00:35:56No question.

00:35:56I don't know.

00:35:57I never caught the Angry Birds craze.

00:35:59There's just something about those little birds that I don't know.

00:36:02They just fucking pissed me off.

00:36:04I didn't like them.

00:36:04Made you angry.

00:36:05Zippo was sick, dude.

00:36:06They had two movies, too.

00:36:07And they made like a billion dollars each.

00:36:09It was crazy.

00:36:10Yeah.

00:36:10Like Jason Statham.

00:36:11That they were so successful and unanimously loved.

00:36:14One for the Zippo lighter, KB.

00:36:16Yeah, not for me.

00:36:17The Angry Birds.

00:36:19Angry Birds.

00:36:19You played Angry Birds?

00:36:20No, it wasn't for me.

00:36:21It was for Spaz's.

00:36:24It was, dude.

00:36:25That's the most high school bully word.

00:36:27Spaz's.

00:36:28Uh, Nick.

00:36:30Uh, it's Angry Birds.

00:36:32That was a phenomenon.

00:36:35The movie wasn't bad.

00:36:36Wasn't it?

00:36:37Jason Statham.

00:36:37It's a movie about the birds.

00:36:40The pigs are attacking.

00:36:41Pigs came and took their eggs.

00:36:42Yeah.

00:36:43It was exactly the plot of the game.

00:36:46Okay.

00:36:47Angry Birds was a fun game.

00:36:48Two for Angry Birds.

00:36:50Kate.

00:36:51Hands down, Angry Birds.

00:36:54I think it came out when I was in the military.

00:36:56And you do so much hurry up and wait.

00:36:58So much sitting around and waiting.

00:37:00And Angry Birds like saved our lives.

00:37:02We would all be there'd be like a line of 40 of us sitting up against a wall in the hot sun.

00:37:06Just playing Angry Birds for hours while waiting for some dumb shit.

00:37:09So Angry Birds for sure.

00:37:10For sure.

00:37:11And I got like, again, like Subway Surfer.

00:37:13I got so into it that I felt like a little kid when I had to like, if like an adult was like,

00:37:18something's going on.

00:37:19You got to put your phone away.

00:37:19I feel angry inside.

00:37:21Yeah.

00:37:21I felt like that childhood feeling of like, what?

00:37:24So yeah, Angry Birds for sure.

00:37:25Three for Angry Birds.

00:37:26One for the Zippo lighter, Vibs.

00:37:29I kind of like the Zippo lighter one, but nothing made our like generation look softer

00:37:33than being at a concert and doing the Zippo lighter app.

00:37:35Oh, I didn't know that was going on.

00:37:37Oh, yeah.

00:37:38Yeah.

00:37:38Like, yeah, like 2009 that was happening.

00:37:41Granted, I was at a John Mayer concert.

00:37:42So that might have been the reason.

00:37:43But Angry Birds.

00:37:45Make custom lighters.

00:37:46Yeah, you can pick the background.

00:37:48I just picked up.

00:37:48That's cool.

00:37:49My most recent photo was the Ian Fassbender holding up the three to the Nazi.

00:37:54Ian Fassbender.

00:37:54Oh, cool.

00:37:56Is the app like owned by Zippo?

00:37:58I own Zippo, but now I don't think that exists anymore.

00:38:02So as you're saying.

00:38:03I'm going Angry Birds.

00:38:04I passed a lot of time in class in college playing Angry Birds.

00:38:08Tommy?

00:38:09Angry Birds.

00:38:10Yeah.

00:38:10That's classic iPhone.

00:38:11I mean, I fucking hated those birds.

00:38:13Yeah.

00:38:14Like the evil birds.

00:38:14I really hate.

00:38:15Oh, the evil ones.

00:38:16Yeah.

00:38:16I think I can remember like the theme song to it.

00:38:18Where it was like, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da.

00:38:20That was that one, right?

00:38:22I got no idea.

00:38:22Yeah.

00:38:23Played it on silent.

00:38:24Now we have the number three seat versus the 14 seat.

00:38:26The three seat is the lightsaber app.

00:38:27That's another one super popular early on.

00:38:29Everyone liked it because when you wave it.

00:38:31And that's another thing with like the technology you were talking about, Rudy.

00:38:34Like when you would wave your phone, it would make like the sound of the lightsaber.

00:38:39And that's going up against the 14 seat.

00:38:40One, it got submitted a ton.

00:38:42I don't remember this one at all.

00:38:42Bubble wrap.

00:38:43I guess it's like the original like pop ones.

00:38:45Oh, yeah.

00:38:46That was for spazzes.

00:38:48Yeah.

00:38:48Do you want to talk spazzes?

00:38:49Yeah.

00:38:50So the bubble wrap app versus the lightsaber app.

00:38:52Tommy?

00:38:53I'm going with the bubble wrap app.

00:38:54I don't really know if I use the lightsaber app.

00:38:57Bubble wrap app.

00:38:57Yeah.

00:38:57I feel like it was super early and it was just like, wow, I can do this with my phone.

00:39:01Like this is something that I'm capable of doing with the phone.

00:39:03Just hit, you know, it's satisfying to pop bubble wrap.

00:39:06It's not much of a game.

00:39:07It's not a game at all.

00:39:08Some would say.

00:39:09So I'm going to go with bubble wrap.

00:39:10Just satisfying.

00:39:11One for bubble wrap.

00:39:12Vibzy?

00:39:13Bubble wrap.

00:39:14Satisfying.

00:39:15Makes you feel good.

00:39:16Two for bubble wrap.

00:39:17Kate?

00:39:18Yeah.

00:39:18I got to go bubble wrap.

00:39:19I feel like touchscreens were still kind of new.

00:39:21And you could actually feel when you popped it.

00:39:23You're like, oh my God, it feels like you're really popping.

00:39:25It was.

00:39:26Would it vibrate?

00:39:26Like, I think it made a sound or something.

00:39:29It made a sound.

00:39:30But like, yeah, I don't know if it had the haptic feedback.

00:39:33Haptic.

00:39:34That's what I was looking for.

00:39:35It's a cool word.

00:39:37Yes.

00:39:37I was very impressed by it.

00:39:38I'll say bubble wrap.

00:39:39Three for the bubble wrap.

00:39:40Nick?

00:39:41I got to go bubble wrap too, because it's like the purest.

00:39:45Like we were so enamored by these smartphones and touchscreens.

00:39:47We did things that, like that.

00:39:51We were going from, like, the graphics of, like, Snake and

00:39:54Brick Breaker to that.

00:39:55And it blew our minds.

00:39:57Yeah.

00:39:57People were so excited about it.

00:39:59So bubble wrap.

00:40:01Yeah.

00:40:01I'll go bubble wrap too.

00:40:02I don't think I used any of these.

00:40:04No.

00:40:05Bubble wrap, Rudy.

00:40:06What was the other one?

00:40:07The lightsaber.

00:40:08Oh, yeah.

00:40:10That sucked because it was, like, this big of a sliver of lightsaber.

00:40:12Yeah.

00:40:14It was not befitting of the prowess of a real lightsaber.

00:40:17No.

00:40:18The bubble app was.

00:40:20I remember distinctly as a kid getting the bubble wrap one after having

00:40:23Eyebeer and the Zippo app and hitting the bubble once and just getting really depressed.

00:40:29Because I was like, holy fuck.

00:40:31Not nearly as cool.

00:40:32This is what I'm doing.

00:40:33This is cool.

00:40:33And this is so lame.

00:40:35But yeah, bubble wrap.

00:40:36Bubble wrap.

00:40:37Now we have the seven versus the ten seed.

00:40:39The seventh seed is the voice auto tune app.

00:40:41I don't really know this one either.

00:40:42I think this was.

00:40:43Yeah.

00:40:43I mean, I forget what it was called.

00:40:45It might have been, like, rap chat or Smuley or.

00:40:48I feel like it was something with double rainbow.

00:40:50Smuley.

00:40:50You used to just, like, put.

00:40:52Yeah, yeah.

00:40:52You used to just.

00:40:53Smuley?

00:40:54Yeah, Smule.

00:40:55You used to talk into it.

00:40:56It would just make your voice, like, auto tuned.

00:40:58I submitted this as well.

00:40:59I fucking loved it.

00:41:00Yeah.

00:41:01So how did you feel like I was a good singer?

00:41:03You played a beat and then it would, like, give you song and you would look at the.

00:41:07You'd sing into your phone and then your voice was auto tuned and it sounded awesome.

00:41:11And this is, like, right in the T-Pain era, too.

00:41:12So it was just, like, sick.

00:41:14Gotcha.

00:41:15So the voice auto tune app.

00:41:16And that's going up against the number 10 seed, Fruit Ninja.

00:41:18Fruit Ninja, another big one.

00:41:20Very similar to something.

00:41:21Big spaz game.

00:41:23Loved it.

00:41:23So Fruit Ninja versus the voice auto tune app.

00:41:26We'll just say they're combined in whichever ones they are.

00:41:28Start with you, Tommy.

00:41:30I don't know why I hated Fruit Ninja.

00:41:33I never got into it.

00:41:35It bothered me.

00:41:36I didn't just not play it.

00:41:37I was actively bothered when people was playing it.

00:41:40Fruit Ninja created autism.

00:41:42A lot of autism.

00:41:43It's ground zero.

00:41:45People think it's vaccines.

00:41:48Fruit Ninja download rates.

00:41:51Yeah, I'm going to go with the voice auto tune.

00:41:53Any voice auto tune app.

00:41:55I really just liked those.

00:41:56As a starter.

00:41:57What was the other?

00:41:59The guy, Anton Dotson.

00:42:01You were really dumb.

00:42:02For real.

00:42:03You guys not remember?

00:42:04Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:42:06Hide your kids.

00:42:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:42:07Classic.

00:42:09So one for the voice auto tune apps.

00:42:11Vibzy?

00:42:11Voice auto tune app.

00:42:12I made a song about wizards in that.

00:42:15You got a lot of issues with magic.

00:42:17You got a lot.

00:42:17Oh, I like wizards.

00:42:18Fuck wizards.

00:42:19Wizards are cool.

00:42:19That's a real magic.

00:42:20You made a wizards diss track?

00:42:22No, it wasn't a diss track.

00:42:23I like wizards.

00:42:24Deceiving me and shit.

00:42:27Yo, it's Vibzy on the beat.

00:42:29Fuck wizards.

00:42:30Fuck Merlin.

00:42:31Fuck Harry Potter.

00:42:32Fuck Ron Weasley.

00:42:33Yeah, fuck your whole crew.

00:42:36No, I like wizards.

00:42:37Ron Weasley, this motherfucking.

00:42:38I like wizards.

00:42:40I hate magicians.

00:42:41Wait, I want a wizard diss track, please.

00:42:43Do you have this somewhere?

00:42:44Your wizard diss track?

00:42:45It's not a wizard diss track.

00:42:46It's on my Instagram though.

00:42:47It was like, I had like a wizard voice.

00:42:50Oh, you're rapping as a wizard.

00:42:51I was rapping kinda, yeah.

00:42:52Oh, you're a rapping wizard.

00:42:54Oh, you were a rap wizard.

00:42:56Yeah, this is all coming together.

00:43:01What about this?

00:43:03Wait, fuck.

00:43:04You said Ron Weasley?

00:43:06He said, oh, I'm a joke.

00:43:08Yeah, man.

00:43:08Fuck Ron Weasley.

00:43:09He's always trying to tease me.

00:43:11I've had enough of these magic motherfuckers constantly trying to deceive me.

00:43:14Oh, that's good.

00:43:16I didn't like that.

00:43:17You got a little sexual when Ron Weasley was trying to tease me.

00:43:21I didn't like that, but I like how it ended.

00:43:22Tommy, will you release a full wizard diss track?

00:43:25Yeah, I'll do it.

00:43:26I'll do that.

00:43:27All right.

00:43:27Yeah.

00:43:28Absolutely.

00:43:28Oh, I can't wait for that.

00:43:29Uh, Kate?

00:43:30Gilbert Arenas, fuck you.

00:43:34I forget what the options are now.

00:43:37The voice autotune app versus the Fruit Ninja.

00:43:39Oh, okay.

00:43:40I like the voice app better, but I never had it or tried it.

00:43:44And I did Fruit Ninja, so I guess I got to go Fruit Ninja.

00:43:46Autist, autist.

00:43:47I'm doing the voice.

00:43:50Two to one right now.

00:43:51Let's turn a train go by.

00:43:55Nick?

00:43:56Doing the voice app for sure.

00:43:58I was working at a laser tag place.

00:44:01And while the kids were playing laser tag, I was writing songs for their older sisters.

00:44:08I remember that.

00:44:11Three for the voice.

00:44:12One for the Fruit Ninja.

00:44:12Didn't do either of these.

00:44:16I'll go with, um, draw something.

00:44:20Draw something as a writing?

00:44:23I'm changing my vote to draw something.

00:44:24That was my favorite.

00:44:25You probably loved it.

00:44:26I loved it.

00:44:27Draw something.

00:44:28It's like words with friends, but with pictionary.

00:44:30Oh, yeah.

00:44:33Okay.

00:44:33And you should have used your double vote.

00:44:35You missed out on your good chance from last week.

00:44:38We haven't told Tommy about the double vote yet.

00:44:41Oh, yeah.

00:44:41We added that on.

00:44:42Yeah.

00:44:42That was added last week when you were gone.

00:44:44There's power-ups now.

00:44:45Once an episode, you can use a round to give yourself a double vote.

00:44:48Wow.

00:44:49You weren't here.

00:44:51Hold on.

00:44:51Let me run it by the sanctity of the bracket.

00:44:53Community.

00:44:53Committee.

00:44:54It's approved.

00:44:55It's approved.

00:44:55Okay, nice.

00:44:56We thought that'd be harder than it was.

00:44:57It's approved.

00:44:58So right now we are two for the voice autotune app.

00:45:00One for Fruit Ninja.

00:45:01And two for draw something.

00:45:03Rudy?

00:45:04That voice autotune app sounds so awesome.

00:45:08I can't believe I missed that.

00:45:09I missed it.

00:45:10You would have been a menace with it.

00:45:12That sounds so cool.

00:45:14But Fruit Ninja was my fucking.

00:45:18Fruit Ninja was my fucking shit.

00:45:19I was so good at that game.

00:45:22Cats were good at it.

00:45:25Yes, there were viral videos of cats.

00:45:30Well, the ancient Egyptians worshipped cats.

00:45:32They're regal creatures.

00:45:33And that's fine.

00:45:35I'm pretty sure I was ranked top 100 Fruit Ninja at one time.

00:45:38I doubt it.

00:45:39Okay, fine.

00:45:40I'll give you that.

00:45:40You are a top 100 Fruit Ninja.

00:45:48I fucking love that game.

00:45:50It's not a game.

00:45:52It is.

00:45:52It literally is.

00:45:53Bubble wrap is more of a game than Fruit Ninja.

00:45:56Yeah, it's a stem.

00:45:57Yeah.

00:45:57Stem.

00:45:58No, it isn't, Tommy.

00:45:59Yeah, it is.

00:46:01Puff.

00:46:05So we're two to two to two.

00:46:07Two for the Voice Auto-Tune app.

00:46:08Two for the Fruit Ninja.

00:46:09Two for Draw Something.

00:46:10Intern David, you're going to have to break the tie.

00:46:13David.

00:46:15We can't choose Pornhub.

00:46:19I really loved Fruit Ninja a lot.

00:46:21No.

00:46:23It's a setup.

00:46:24Have y'all seen the Smuley ads, though?

00:46:26It was like some lady saying something random into her phone

00:46:29and then she'll play it and then 50 cents, buy me in the club,

00:46:32like beat in the back to the most randomest sentence.

00:46:35I think she said, I love a box of chocolates.

00:46:37And then she was like.

00:46:38Yeah, sick.

00:46:39I got to go Smuley.

00:46:40I got to go Smuley.

00:46:42Three for the Voice Auto-Tune.

00:46:45Draw Something is a great call, though.

00:46:46I wish that had its own entry.

00:46:48Yeah, that should have.

00:46:48I forgot about that completely.

00:46:49Draw Something was awesome.

00:46:50Had not seen that either.

00:46:51I definitely would have voted that.

00:46:52Now we have the number two seed versus the 15 seed.

00:46:54The two seed is Flappy Bird.

00:46:56That's one where a lot that was about as viral as a game has ever gotten.

00:47:00And then the guy stopped.

00:47:01He just destroyed his own fear for his life.

00:47:04Oh, yeah.

00:47:04What happened?

00:47:05OK, so I looked it up because I was like, I wanted to make sure that I got it all right.

00:47:08The guy that made it is from Vietnam.

00:47:09He's just tweeted once in the middle of the game.

00:47:12And like it's Heidi said, I'm sorry.

00:47:13Twenty two hours from now, I'm going to take down the game.

00:47:14I can't take this anymore.

00:47:16And then after you've moved it, people were offering.

00:47:18I remember this.

00:47:19Like they're offering on eBay.

00:47:20You give me a pre like pre update iPad or iPhone.

00:47:24And they were offering like $90,000 for an iPad that still had Flappy Bird on it.

00:47:28And then he said the reason he got rid of it is because it was so addictive.

00:47:30He designed it for people to play with downtime and people are getting addicted to it.

00:47:33He didn't like that.

00:47:34So he took it down for reasons.

00:47:37I mean, he lost out on millions of dollars and people just made competitor games.

00:47:40That's the exact same game.

00:47:41I hated that game.

00:47:43I never made it past the first fucking horrible.

00:47:46Yeah, I was bad as well.

00:47:47But Flappy Bird is going to go up against the number 15 seed Doodle Jump.

00:47:51Another one.

00:47:51A lot of people played a ton of I didn't fit.

00:47:53That's a strong 15.

00:47:54Was Doodle Jump the little motorcycle that went over the doodle?

00:47:57No, it was a little green alien or something.

00:48:00It was a green alien that was on clouds, right?

00:48:02Yeah, you just go up and up and up and up.

00:48:04I don't know what you're talking about, Kate, but I like that.

00:48:06I forget it.

00:48:07That was a computer game.

00:48:08That was a flash game.

00:48:09Line Runner or something like that.

00:48:11Line Runner is the sled guy.

00:48:14Line Rider was awesome.

00:48:16Huge.

00:48:16Yeah, Line Rider was an awesome game.

00:48:17Love that dude.

00:48:18But we have Flappy Bird versus Doodle Jump.

00:48:20Start out with you, Rudy.

00:48:23Yeah, I hated Flappy Bird because I was so bad at it.

00:48:27And so I easily have to go.

00:48:29I don't know what the other one was again.

00:48:31Doodle Jump.

00:48:32Yeah, Doodle Jump.

00:48:33I enjoyed Doodle Jump.

00:48:34I did enjoy.

00:48:35That was satisfying.

00:48:36Flappy Bird.

00:48:37I'm glad that its creator had an existential crisis because I hated that game.

00:48:42Doodle Jump.

00:48:43If I remember correctly, you would actually have to rotate your phone.

00:48:45Like it wasn't like pressing.

00:48:46So I think you did have to get to play.

00:48:48I didn't like phones.

00:48:49I didn't like games like that either.

00:48:51Uh, so we have one for Doodle Jump.

00:48:53None for Flappy Bird.

00:48:54Start with you, KB.

00:48:55My back is fucked up.

00:48:56Let's go to you, KB.

00:48:57Um, neither, but I guess I played Flappy Bird more.

00:49:01So Flappy Bird.

00:49:02Did you play any?

00:49:03Did you download apps ever?

00:49:05Um, yeah.

00:49:07No, you had a Sony Ericsson until you were a junior in college.

00:49:11So you're playing like Brick Breaker and like Snake or whatever?

00:49:17No.

00:49:19His favorite game is the Notes app.

00:49:21Yeah, it is.

00:49:22I had it most used.

00:49:23Yeah.

00:49:23You're with all your fictional,

00:49:24are the fictional countries in Notes app or in like Google Doc?

00:49:28In my head.

00:49:29Oh, oh, that's, oh, that's not even recorded anywhere.

00:49:31Yeah.

00:49:32Amazing.

00:49:32Uh, Nick.

00:49:34Abstaining.

00:49:34I didn't like any of these.

00:49:35You didn't like either of these?

00:49:37No.

00:49:37Interesting.

00:49:38Okay.

00:49:39I didn't play either, but Doodle Jump is cuter.

00:49:42So I'm gonna go Doodle Jump.

00:49:44By default, two to one in favor of Doodle Jump.

00:49:46Fibsy?

00:49:46I didn't play Doodle Jump.

00:49:47I'm gonna go Flappy Bird.

00:49:49It didn't have, it wasn't like eight bit, kind of.

00:49:51What are you sharing with me?

00:49:52Doodle Jump or Flappy Bird?

00:49:53Flappy Bird.

00:49:54I kind of like that.

00:49:55Yeah.

00:49:56So we're two to two right now.

00:49:57You get to break the tie, Tommy.

00:49:58This is tough.

00:49:59I played and liked both of these.

00:50:01I remember Flappy Bird taking over high school cafeteria.

00:50:04High score would be like seven.

00:50:06Like if you got through seven pipes, it was like a high score.

00:50:09But I'm gonna go Doodle Jump.

00:50:10I think it's a little more classic.

00:50:12Doodle Jump.

00:50:14Gonna move on.

00:50:15Before we get to the playoffs of this bracket,

00:50:17let's hear from our next advertiser of the day.

00:50:19Roan Apparel.

00:50:20Shout out to our buddy Roan.

00:50:22Finding out what to wear every day.

00:50:23It sucks.

00:50:24We were just talking to Nick pre-show.

00:50:26You gotta wear those corduroy pants when you got them,

00:50:27because they look nice, right?

00:50:29These aren't corduroy.

00:50:30What's the word?

00:50:31No.

00:50:31What's the golden?

00:50:33Khakis are, these are probably like a cornmeal color.

00:50:35Oh.

00:50:35This was like the Pantone color of the year in 2019.

00:50:39What was the pair of pants that you and Fites both had?

00:50:41Where it was goldenrod?

00:50:43Goldenrod.

00:50:43These are goldenrod.

00:50:44Yeah.

00:50:44That's what I was looking for.

00:50:46But sometimes it sucks finding out what to wear.

00:50:47Men's closets were due for a radical reinvention,

00:50:49and Roan stepped up to the plate.

00:50:51Roan's commuter collection is the most comfortable,

00:50:52breathable, flexible set of products known to men,

00:50:54and here's why.

00:50:55They have products for every occasion.

00:50:56They can help you get ready for anything

00:50:57with the commuter collection,

00:50:58which offers the world's most comfortable pants,

00:51:00dress shirts, quarter zips, and polos.

00:51:01They have mobility.

00:51:02Their four-way stretch fabric breathes insanely well,

00:51:06and its flexibility leaves you free to enjoy

00:51:07whatever life throws your way from your commute to work

00:51:09or your 18-year-olds at golf.

00:51:11It's time to feel confident without the hassle.

00:51:12With Roan's wrinkle release technology,

00:51:14wrinkles disappear as you stretch and stretch,

00:51:16as you wear the product.

00:51:16It's that easy, which is great,

00:51:18because figuring out wrinkles in a dryer,

00:51:20if you don't have a great dryer, it really sucks.

00:51:22With Gold Fusion anti-odor technology,

00:51:24you'll be smelling fresh and clean all day long,

00:51:25and on top of that, Roan is 100% machine washable,

00:51:27so you can ditch the dry cleaner altogether.

00:51:29We love Roan here.

00:51:31Big Roan fans over at the office

00:51:32and a commuter collection can get you through any workday.

00:51:45All right, first matchup,

00:51:46Temple Run versus Words With Friends.

00:51:48The battle of the classic, two of the classic,

00:51:50probably most downloaded iPhone app games ever created.

00:51:54So starting with you, Tommy Smokes.

00:51:56It's tough, but I gotta stay true to myself

00:51:58and go Words With Friends.

00:51:59Temple Run had its phase.

00:52:01Nobody's still playing Temple Run.

00:52:02People do still play Words With Friends,

00:52:04so I'm going WWF.

00:52:06One for Words With Friends.

00:52:07Vibsy.

00:52:08I'm going Words With Friends.

00:52:09I'm not doing, I'm, I know, but who, but what is this?

00:52:12I'm playing Catherine W, and I don't know what this is.

00:52:15That is a battery.

00:52:16You're trying Words With Friends again?

00:52:17It's a, yeah, we're playing Draw With Friends.

00:52:21Draw With Friends, okay, I gotcha.

00:52:24Vibsy.

00:52:24Words With Friends.

00:52:26I'm quitting.

00:52:26For Words With Friends.

00:52:27It's a battery.

00:52:28I'm forfeiting, it's not a battery.

00:52:29I'm playing with you right now.

00:52:30Okay.

00:52:32How do you win?

00:52:34Do you just have to guess what they drew or no?

00:52:36Who gets a point?

00:52:37I don't know.

00:52:38Oh, dude, I have old games in here.

00:52:40I just redownloaded it.

00:52:41Oh my God, imagine if that's how you rekindle

00:52:43with like an X.

00:52:44Tinny 94.

00:52:45Dude, that must be like 100 broken heart.

00:52:48What is this?

00:52:50I'm going to say that's the beauty of the game.

00:52:51Plus, this is a bill.

00:52:56Let me see it.

00:52:56Are these bots are real people playing?

00:52:58We're playing each other.

00:53:00Oh yeah.

00:53:00It's a select a word to draw.

00:53:02I can draw a rainbow.

00:53:03I could draw the word end or truck.

00:53:07Nick, Words With Friends or Temple Run.

00:53:11Words With Friends is fucking boring.

00:53:14Oh, it gets the heart going.

00:53:15Oh my God.

00:53:16You're sounding real dumb, Nick.

00:53:17I hate to say that.

00:53:19You're sounding real dumb, Nick.

00:53:20Fuck.

00:53:21That's what you sound like.

00:53:25Words With Friends.

00:53:26The best.

00:53:27Words With Friends, Rudy.

00:53:28I'm going Temple Run.

00:53:31Damn shame.

00:53:32Words With Friends is going to move on either way.

00:53:33Words With Friends.

00:53:35On the other side, we have Eyebeer versus Sazam.

00:53:37These are two apps probably used a lot in the same location,

00:53:39I would imagine.

00:53:40So starting with you, Rudy.

00:53:42Eyebeer is rad.

00:53:44I did say that I love all the games where you use the motion of your phone,

00:53:48but I did have a terrible accident with one of those games.

00:53:53What?

00:53:54Oh, didn't you hurt yourself golfing?

00:53:56I golf.

00:53:57I broke my leg.

00:53:59Playing iGolf?

00:54:01Yeah.

00:54:01How?

00:54:03I think I've told this story before, but iGolf was the first golf game

00:54:08where you could swing your phone like a golf club.

00:54:11And me and my friends were playing, roughhousing, having a good time.

00:54:17And we were swinging it as hard as we could,

00:54:19as hard as we could to see how far we could drive it.

00:54:22And we were getting running starts doing the whole thing.

00:54:24And I was in socks on my friend's basement carpet.

00:54:27I swung it as hard as I could, and I spun and slipped.

00:54:29And when I landed, I literally just broke my shin.

00:54:33Jesus Christ.

00:54:34I broke my shin.

00:54:35And then everyone else just didn't pay any mind.

00:54:37And I was just sitting there moaning.

00:54:39And my ankle swelled up to the size of a softball.

00:54:43And my friend said one of the dumbest things I've ever heard a human being say.

00:54:46And that's coming from me.

00:54:48He said, don't worry, dude.

00:54:49If it swells, that means it's not broken.

00:54:51And I couldn't believe that he said that.

00:54:54Still not as dumb as saying Floppy Bird.

00:54:56Floppy Bird's a tower defense game.

00:54:58Oh, man.

00:54:59Oh, Tommy.

00:55:01Clip it.

00:55:03Moment of the podcast, Tommy.

00:55:05Damn it.

00:55:05What?

00:55:06Floppy Bird.

00:55:07You said Floppy Bird?

00:55:08I corrected myself.

00:55:10On a burn, you can't.

00:55:11I know.

00:55:14You know what?

00:55:14You're off the wizard diss track.

00:55:16Oh, yeah?

00:55:16Well, how about we write competing wizard diss tracks, asshole?

00:55:19Oh, I will.

00:55:20Rudy's pretty good.

00:55:21I will go bar for bar with you, dude.

00:55:22Let's do it.

00:55:23It'll be like K-Dot versus Drizzy, dude.

00:55:25Rudy knows more about wizards, too, I think.

00:55:27Oh, Rudy definitely knows more about wizards.

00:55:28No question.

00:55:29Thoron and stuff.

00:55:31So he's got an unfair advantage.

00:55:32Fine.

00:55:33I have a built-in excuse.

00:55:35Tommy knows more words.

00:55:37I know a lot of words.

00:55:38But yeah, I got two screws in my shin.

00:55:40And people came up to me that I didn't even know from different high schools that were like,

00:55:45oh, you're the guy.

00:55:47Should have drank more milk.

00:55:49Yeah, should have drank less eye beer.

00:55:52So you're going to go with Shazam?

00:55:53Yeah, Shazam.

00:55:54One for Shazam.

00:55:55KB?

00:55:56Shazam, yeah.

00:55:58Wow, two for Shazam over eye beer.

00:56:00Nick?

00:56:01Both of these were bona fide miracles when they came out.

00:56:05My mind couldn't comprehend either.

00:56:09I'm going eye beer.

00:56:11I spent $2.99 on it.

00:56:14The additions they made still make themselves relevant.

00:56:17Pretty impressive.

00:56:18Do they have a hard seltzer?

00:56:22High Noon Insider.

00:56:23No, no way, dude.

00:56:24I mean, they're advancing with the times, obviously.

00:56:27Yeah.

00:56:28High Nooners.

00:56:28I mean, these are two legitimate insane advances in technology.

00:56:32You can do chocolate milk.

00:56:34I don't want to do chocolate milk.

00:56:35Kate?

00:56:36Pretty cool.

00:56:37I...

00:56:38Nick made me feel...

00:56:39I haven't felt excited about, like, an app in a long time,

00:56:42and I felt, like, a sense of wonder watching him drink that beer.

00:56:46I have to go Shazam, but I...

00:56:48I have to pay another $2.99 for milk.

00:56:51For chocolate milk.

00:56:53Their servers are about to crash.

00:56:54So much money is getting spent on this app.

00:56:58I just bought the fucking milk pack.

00:56:59I just got the milk pack.

00:57:05What's your total now?

00:57:06How much have you spent?

00:57:08Four dollars.

00:57:10Worth it.

00:57:10Yeah, their traffic is going crazy.

00:57:13So three for Shazam, one for iBeer.

00:57:16Shazam.

00:57:18I still don't understand how the technology works.

00:57:20It's incredible.

00:57:22Hold on.

00:57:22I've been over here waiting to see him drink the milk.

00:57:24Let's see.

00:57:24Oh, look at it.

00:57:26Does it look good?

00:57:27At least it doesn't really look like chocolate milk.

00:57:31It looks more like cocoa.

00:57:32Yep.

00:57:33Oh, wait.

00:57:33I can really froth it up, though.

00:57:35Oh, I'm breaking the glass.

00:57:36No.

00:57:38And I lost all the milk.

00:57:39Yeah, it's spilling.

00:57:40I lost.

00:57:40Game over.

00:57:42I didn't know you could lose eye milk.

00:57:46Holy shit.

00:57:47There is a lot of these.

00:57:50Sorry, my beer app's going crazy.

00:57:52It's like a bomb.

00:57:53That did sound a lot like a bomb.

00:57:55Oh, you can do rosé.

00:57:57No, wait.

00:57:57I have to buy the wine pack.

00:58:00Do it.

00:58:00There.

00:58:01Do it.

00:58:01What about the breast milk pack?

00:58:02Oh, yeah.

00:58:04You get it forever, right?

00:58:07Imagine you're spending three dollars.

00:58:08Like, it's cheaper to just buy a real glass of milk.

00:58:11And purchase every month to renew your milk pack.

00:58:14Shazam's going to win.

00:58:15But, Tommy?

00:58:15Yeah, Shazam.

00:58:16Shazam.

00:58:17This draw something shit sucks.

00:58:19What?

00:58:20I'm over it.

00:58:20That's fast.

00:58:22Shazam versus Words with Friends.

00:58:24Tommy, to go into the finals.

00:58:26Wow.

00:58:27Wow, wow.

00:58:30Two ones I use off.

00:58:31But I don't know.

00:58:32Shazam.

00:58:32It's like, it's still here.

00:58:36I'm going.

00:58:36I'm going Words with Friends.

00:58:37I'm sticking with Words with Friends.

00:58:39One for Words with Friends.

00:58:40Vipsy?

00:58:40I've just said, what?

00:58:41Do you want to add Katie Stats from games?

00:58:44Is Katie Stats playing Eyebeer?

00:58:47She's actually addicted.

00:58:51She sneaks into the bathroom.

00:58:54She's like stuck on the level.

00:58:56She got pulled over for playing Eyebeer while driving.

00:59:00Like in Tron.

00:59:03Oh, my God.

00:59:04I don't think this was an app.

00:59:05But do you remember the, like, you could play pool or like beer pong?

00:59:09Yeah, that's a game.

00:59:10Yeah, within the messages.

00:59:11Within the messages, yeah.

00:59:12That's too new, I think, to add into this.

00:59:14Okay.

00:59:15But that, like, Words with Friends, I kind of use that.

00:59:17You know, you're texting with your crush.

00:59:19You got something to do with it.

00:59:20I feel like it, like, goes away after a while.

00:59:23Separate.

00:59:24But Shazam.

00:59:26It's, it's incredible.

00:59:28One to one, Kate.

00:59:30Shazam.

00:59:31Shazam.

00:59:32Two to one right now, Nick.

00:59:34Kate, what's this up against?

00:59:36Words with Friends.

00:59:38Words with Friends is boring as fuck.

00:59:40I'm going Shazam.

00:59:42Three for Shazam, KB.

00:59:43It's not boring.

00:59:44But Shazam, finding a brand new bop is invaluable.

00:59:49It's the best feeling.

00:59:50Shazam is going to win.

00:59:51But Rudy?

00:59:52Yeah, it's Shazam for me.

00:59:54Wasn't no Words with Friends guy.

00:59:55Where's the most random place you've ever used a Shazam?

00:59:58Like in an elevator, in the grocery store.

00:59:59Like a funeral.

01:00:01Yeah.

01:00:02Piano was going crazy.

01:00:07It was my best moment.

01:00:08I sniped the Broiler remix to Shots by Imagine Dragons from a car like blocks away from my

01:00:15New York apartment.

01:00:19Shazam is going to win on this side.

01:00:20Before we do this, let's hear from Rocket Money.

01:00:22Most Americans think they spend around $62 a month on subscriptions, but their number

01:00:26is closer to 300.

01:00:28I'd definitely buy that.

01:00:29That is literally thousands of dollars a year, half of which you've probably forgotten about.

01:00:32Thankfully, we've started using Rocket Money.

01:00:33You find a bunch of subscriptions you forget about, and they help you cancel the ones you

01:00:35don't want anymore.

01:00:36I always mention the same one.

01:00:37Microsoft charged me like $1630 something, I think.

01:00:40Could not figure it out.

01:00:41Tried to call them a million times.

01:00:43They put you through like this labyrinth to try and actually get their subscription cancelled.

01:00:46Rocket Money, they do all that shit for you.

01:00:48It's the personal finance app that helps define and cancel your unwanted subscriptions,

01:01:21Starting with Rudy.

01:01:23Which one versus Angry Birds?

01:01:24Sorry.

01:01:25Bubble wrap game.

01:01:25Or stim game.

01:01:27Oh, definitely going bubble wrap.

01:01:29Come on.

01:01:30I don't, I didn't like Angry Birds.

01:01:32It just, I don't know.

01:01:34It's just, those birds were just infuriating.

01:01:37Yeah, it's the name of the game.

01:01:40To me.

01:01:42I hated them.

01:01:43Bubble wrap.

01:01:44Bubble wrap, KB.

01:01:46Um, I guess bubble wrap because I didn't like those birds either.

01:01:51No one really liked the birds, except for the movie.

01:01:52The movie just made shit tons of money.

01:01:54Nick?

01:01:55Angry Birds was a cool, uh, inventive game.

01:01:58I liked it.

01:01:59I was like, those types of games.

01:02:01Okay, you have to spit those out.

01:02:03Oh.

01:02:03What's she been doing?

01:02:04I have these like portable mouthwashes.

01:02:06It's extremely foamy.

01:02:07Yeah, it's very foamy.

01:02:08I've been sitting here sucking it down.

01:02:11Wait, how many of these have you eaten?

01:02:16She's just inhaling mouthwash?

01:02:18Kate's been munching mouthwash this whole time.

01:02:20I'll be damned.

01:02:21Sorry, carry on.

01:02:22It's pretty nice.

01:02:23Drunk.

01:02:24I feel like I just brushed my teeth.

01:02:26Yeah.

01:02:27Okay, thanks.

01:02:27Okay.

01:02:30Two to one.

01:02:30Sorry, in favor of bubble wrap right now.

01:02:32Uh, or sorry, in bubble wrap.

01:02:33Yeah.

01:02:34Uh, you like Angry Birds though, right?

01:02:35You're saying?

01:02:36Angry Birds, I think is like, it's the perfect app game.

01:02:39I don't like when iPhone games have to be too complex.

01:02:43You got icigarette?

01:02:44No, no, that's not real.

01:02:50It's not.

01:02:50It's broken.

01:02:51It's all in Chinese.

01:02:54How do you smoke?

01:02:55Do you have to squat to use it?

01:02:56I don't know.

01:02:57What the fuck?

01:03:01I'm going to have to download icigarette.

01:03:04So you go with Angry Birds.

01:03:10Kate, sorry.

01:03:11Yeah, gotta be Angry Birds.

01:03:12That game was, I mean, I better hate it.

01:03:16Icigarette.

01:03:18Uh, Vibzy.

01:03:19I'm going Angry Birds.

01:03:20When I realized I was going to fail Organic Chemistry,

01:03:22I just dedicated my entire lecture time to doing Angry Birds in college.

01:03:27So good times.

01:03:29So three to two in favor of Angry Birds.

01:03:31Tommy?

01:03:31Yeah.

01:03:32I didn't love Angry Birds, but it's iconic.

01:03:34I mean, it's got a fucking movie made out of it.

01:03:36So I'll go Angry Birds here.

01:03:38There's no bubble wrap movie.

01:03:39Yeah, that's true.

01:03:40Angry Birds is going to move on.

01:03:41Now we have Doodle Jump versus the voice autotune thing that you used for the raps.

01:03:47I'm going with the voice autotune thing.

01:03:49Uh, Doodle Jump's fun, but it's not as creative.

01:03:52You can really get in the lab and talk some shit up with the voice autotune apps.

01:03:57That's what you're going to do the wizard rap on there?

01:03:59I'm going to do.

01:03:59Yeah, I'm going to look into that right now.

01:04:01Uh, Vibzy?

01:04:02Uh, the voice apps.

01:04:05Definitely.

01:04:06Good laughs.

01:04:06Good laughs with the boys doing the voice apps.

01:04:08Uh, Kate?

01:04:10Gotta go voice apps.

01:04:11I wish I had known about them because I feel like I would have had a good time.

01:04:14I had the, you know what it is?

01:04:16Back in the day, I had the very first thing I ever bought with my own money

01:04:20was the Home Alone Talkboy.

01:04:22And I was obsessed.

01:04:23And all you could do is make your voice low and slow or fast and high.

01:04:26And I used it for like hours and hours for like three years, way longer than I should.

01:04:29Talkboy.

01:04:29Is that what he used to make the fake phone call?

01:04:32Yeah.

01:04:33Oh, that's cool.

01:04:35So three for the voice changer.

01:04:37Nick?

01:04:38Voice changer, for sure.

01:04:40Voice changer is going to win, but KB?

01:04:42Yeah, the voice changer.

01:04:43I've never played it, but I would pick that if I had played it.

01:04:46Uh, Rudy?

01:04:47Move it on.

01:04:48Voice changer versus Angry Birds to go into the finals.

01:04:51Rudy, you're up first.

01:04:53Voice changer.

01:04:54I've spoken my piece about those fucking birds.

01:04:56You really fucking hate those birds, man.

01:04:58Yeah.

01:04:58Yeah, not like you.

01:05:00Uh, KB?

01:05:01Voice changer, yep.

01:05:03Two for the voice changer.

01:05:04Nick?

01:05:06What's this against?

01:05:07Uh, Angry Birds.

01:05:08Angry Birds, again.

01:05:10It was like, it was like a true cultural phenomenon.

01:05:16What was the premise?

01:05:17The voice one wasn't.

01:05:18You shot these birds out of a slingshot to knock down this tower.

01:05:21First of all, let's talk about something else.

01:05:22There are birds that can fly, but I have to shoot them out of a fucking slingshot.

01:05:25Dude, it's, it's.

01:05:26Good point, Rudy.

01:05:27The cultural phenomenon.

01:05:29It was a 9-11 simulator.

01:05:31It was huge.

01:05:32It was a little 9-11-y.

01:05:33I'm going Angry Birds for its impact.

01:05:35You guys forgot about the voice changer.

01:05:36The birds could never use it.

01:05:37The impact it had on towers.

01:05:39Shut up.

01:05:40The birds could fly, but they needed, they needed more speed to knock things over.

01:05:44And it was pigs.

01:05:44Not every bird can fly well.

01:05:46Yeah, and they had to fight pigs, right?

01:05:47That was, it was little green pigs.

01:05:49Yeah.

01:05:49Kate, you're going with Angry Birds too?

01:05:51Yes, absolutely.

01:05:52Even today, any claw machine will still have Angry Birds.

01:05:54I do.

01:05:54Those are a lot of, they're stuffed a lot.

01:05:56Oh yeah, those are fun.

01:05:57Yeah.

01:05:58They are.

01:05:59I'm nasty at them.

01:06:00Dibsy?

01:06:01Angry Birds, I did it more out of just like necessity.

01:06:04Like I had to pass time.

01:06:05I didn't, I don't really like to play.

01:06:06I needed to play it.

01:06:08I don't like the, like the gameplay.

01:06:10I think the gameplay stinks, but it passes time.

01:06:13It's like equal as equally as fun as taking an Advil.

01:06:17But the voice changer.

01:06:18Taking Advil?

01:06:19Both.

01:06:21The voice changer, like it's limitless.

01:06:25You can be creative with it.

01:06:26I think it's fun.

01:06:27I'm taking that.

01:06:28Three for the voice changer, two for Angry Birds.

01:06:30Tommy?

01:06:30Yeah, I get the hype of Angry Birds, but I really didn't like the game.

01:06:34It wasn't fun.

01:06:35So I'm going with the voice app.

01:06:38So it's going to be voice changer versus Shazam.

01:06:40That's insane.

01:06:41But before, how the hell did we get here?

01:06:43Bizarro.

01:06:43That's bananas.

01:06:44Bizarro finals.

01:06:45But before we get to that, let's talk about Body Armor.

01:06:46We got Body Armor Zero Sugar right in front of us.

01:06:48This episode of The Bragant is brought to you by Body Armor Zero Sugar.

01:06:51Brand new zero sugar sports drinks from our friends over at Body Armor that provides real

01:06:53hydration with no artificial sweeteners, flavors, or dyes.

01:06:56Whether you're looking to stay hydrated or recovering from a long weekend, Body Armor

01:06:59Zero Sugar has got you covered with great tasting flavors like Fruit Punch and Lemon

01:07:02Lime.

01:07:02Say it every time we do one of these Body Armor abs.

01:07:04Don't have any idea how they figured out Lemon Lime, but I'd usually hate it.

01:07:08Flay has a flavor.

01:07:09Love it in Body Armor.

01:07:10It's incredible.

01:07:10It is available in stores nationwide.

01:07:12Head on over to Walmart and get yours today.

01:07:14When PMT did that interview with Joe Burrow, the one that just came out, is that like in

01:07:18a Body Armor like training studio?

01:07:21I don't know.

01:07:22I think when Caleb did his video with Joe Burrow too, it was in a similar thing.

01:07:26Like I think Joe Burrow is a Body Armor athlete.

01:07:28We're a Body Armor company.

01:07:30Yeah.

01:07:31But yeah, I don't know where it is exactly.

01:07:33Yeah, it does look cool.

01:07:34Uh, I also am pretty sure because I'd never watched Ozark really before.

01:07:37I mean, I just restarted, started like trying to watch it.

01:07:40I never would have either.

01:07:41I saw Body Armor in the opening episode of it.

01:07:43And that was in 2016.

01:07:45They filmed that or something.

01:07:47I didn't know it had been like kicking around that long.

01:07:49But shout out to Body Armor.

01:07:49We love them over there.

01:07:50And if you're again, if you're watching this on YouTube or whatever, you're seeing Body

01:07:54Armor all over the place.

01:07:55Uh, okay.

01:07:55So finals.

01:07:56Shazam versus the Voice Changer apps.

01:07:58Very, I don't, again, no fucking clue how we got here.

01:08:01But it's the final.

01:08:02Yeah, this shit sucks.

01:08:03Yeah, it's a bad, bad final.

01:08:05But I think it's just a weird strength of schedule.

01:08:07We do that every once in a while.

01:08:09Yeah, yeah.

01:08:10Voice Changer versus Shazam for the better title of better early, uh, iPhone slash Android,

01:08:15whatever app, but mostly iPhone here.

01:08:16Uh, I'll start with you, Tommy.

01:08:17Ugh, I don't even know how I want to vote here.

01:08:21I mean, I like both of these apps.

01:08:22Shazam is a miracle.

01:08:23It feels wrong that one of these will be the winner.

01:08:26I guess we'll go Shazam just because it is, you know, it's become a verb.

01:08:30Hell, it's become a verb.

01:08:31Um, and for that alone, I'll go Shazam.

01:08:34That's a good argument.

01:08:36Yeah.

01:08:37Vibzy?

01:08:37It's like getting mossed on.

01:08:39Yeah, yeah.

01:08:40Shazam.

01:08:41Two for Shazam.

01:08:42Uh, Kate?

01:08:44I mean, I guess Shazam.

01:08:45I can't believe.

01:08:47It's a weird final.

01:08:48But again, I think we can look back and think of how we talked specifically about Shazam.

01:08:52It is an absolute fucking miracle.

01:08:54You look at its origin, its longevity, its consistency.

01:08:57I think it might be in the running for best app.

01:09:00Yeah.

01:09:01I'm using my double vote on Smurfs Village, the game I've spent the most money on all the way,

01:09:05high school through college.

01:09:06I spent probably close to a grand on Smurfs Village.

01:09:09So I changed my Smurfs clothes.

01:09:10I unlocked Vanity Smurf.

01:09:12I did it all.

01:09:13It was the best game you would farm.

01:09:15Just I had bought the fishing hole.

01:09:17I spent a ludicrous amount of money on Smurfs Village.

01:09:20Smurfs Village.

01:09:21Three to two.

01:09:22It is.

01:09:22Yeah, it's three to two.

01:09:23That ain't winning.

01:09:24Three for Shazam.

01:09:25Two for Smurfs Village.

01:09:26None for the voice changer.

01:09:27KB?

01:09:32Was it like it was fun?

01:09:33Yeah, it was a laugh.

01:09:34Smurfs Village.

01:09:36Shit.

01:09:37Use your double vote.

01:09:38Use your double vote.

01:09:39Double Smurfs Village.

01:09:42For it just loves games where you just do chores.

01:09:44Yes.

01:09:45Yeah.

01:09:45I love the time based games that like that's perfect for the phone.

01:09:49I don't want to play fucking trip away games on the phone.

01:09:52Yeah, I'm with you on that.

01:09:54I'm with you on that.

01:09:54Never works.

01:09:55So we're village.

01:09:56You had your farm.

01:09:57You got to plot out your city.

01:09:58I love city building games.

01:09:59It was cute.

01:10:00It was.

01:10:01Oh, I bet your ass love the roller coaster tycoon too.

01:10:04I just spent a lot of money on roller coaster tycoon merch.

01:10:08I will wear it to cheer tomorrow.

01:10:10We played roller coaster tycoon once.

01:10:12It was fun.

01:10:12It's a blast.

01:10:13One of the best games ever.

01:10:14Is there one of the best things ever?

01:10:16Is there a way you can still play that now?

01:10:17I don't know.

01:10:17I've looked it up.

01:10:17You play the full roller coaster tycoon on your phone $9.99 and it's exactly how it was on the computer.

01:10:23No.

01:10:23Can you shut up?

01:10:24Can you send me that and the Pokemon game you recommended last time?

01:10:28Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:10:29All right, I'm going to text you after this.

01:10:31How have the Pokemon streams been going?

01:10:32I haven't watched the last one.

01:10:33Oh, they've been good.

01:10:35We've tried to get all eight badges and two streams.

01:10:37We have four badges.

01:10:38Wait, which one is it, Nick?

01:10:39There's one that's free.

01:10:40That's got 79,000 downloads.

01:10:42And so that's the one that's made for the phone.

01:10:44Yeah, you want the one that's classic.

01:10:46Is it classic?

01:10:47It's $6.

01:10:48Yeah, classic for six.

01:10:49Oh, it was $9 when I got it then.

01:10:51All right.

01:10:51So Rudy, you have a big job coming up here.

01:10:53We have three for Shazam and four for Smurfs Village.

01:10:59I was about to go on a long rant about how Alexander Graham Bell

01:11:03is going to be topped by the Shazam creators.

01:11:06It might be.

01:11:09But I've been swayed.

01:11:11Smurfs Village?

01:11:11Double vote Smurfs Village.

01:11:13Double vote Smurfs Village.

01:11:13I didn't see that coming.

01:11:17Yeah, it had an easy path.

01:11:19I don't even know what the fuck it is.

01:11:20Oh, it's great.

01:11:21I have just bought Rollercoaster Tycoon.

01:11:23Oh no, should we make this up?

01:11:24It's exactly how it was.

01:11:26Should we make it a rule at the double vote that if someone evokes the double vote,

01:11:29everyone else gets a chance to use their then double vote?

01:11:32No, no.

01:11:32This is all strategy.

01:11:33Ask Tommy.

01:11:34Tommy?

01:11:35Great strategy, buddy.

01:11:36Yeah, it's a great strategy.

01:11:37So you cannot use your double vote after somebody else has used their double vote.

01:11:41If you're confident enough in the double vote, you must use it on your turn.

01:11:44So six votes for Smurfs Village, three votes for Shazam.

01:11:48Out of nowhere, Smurfs Village wins the bracket 134.

01:11:51Best early apps.

01:11:53You're going to be so pissed at this one.

01:11:55A reminder before you...

01:11:57If anybody's sitting and looking like,

01:11:58fuck, nobody should ever be mad at what won the bracket.

01:12:02I know, yeah.

01:12:03Bad day at work, honey.

01:12:04People should stop listening to the show after the first round.

01:12:05God damn it.

01:12:07But a reminder, if you're listening to this, make sure if you have a good impression,

01:12:10submit it.

01:12:10You can win 100 bucks.

01:12:11You'll see that in the end of the...

01:12:13at the link in the end of the description in YouTube, probably, whatever.

01:12:15Make sure you submit that.

01:12:16We're slowly racking up the entries.

01:12:18I want to get as many as possible before we do that one.

01:12:20But we do have an interesting one for next week.

01:12:22Tommy, do you want to tease that one?

01:12:25Sure.

01:12:25Just things that people should talk about more.

01:12:28Things that should be a bigger deal.

01:12:30That could be historical events, random things.

01:12:32The one example I thought of was the fact that parrots can talk.

01:12:35I feel like we don't talk enough about how parrots can just speak English.

01:12:38That's kind of crazy.

01:12:39Yeah, it is wild.

01:12:40It's very under the radar.

01:12:41They can speak other languages, too.

01:12:42Yeah, yeah.

01:12:43That's also English.

01:12:45That makes it way weirder.

01:12:45That's even weirder.

01:12:46Yeah, yeah.

01:12:47But make sure to check that out.

01:12:48But until then, we'll see you guys next week.

01:13:00Bye.
