We got tons of Dragon Quest use some of it good some ahead not so good. At least if you live in the west. Yeah, if you're if you're not Japanese, it may not be the best news. That's right. I did get a lot of new so for this week's episode. We just wanted to focus all all the news tidbits we've gotten in this past week. So first let's just talk about the big one. I guess for everyone here in the states especially was adding the heroes in to smash all the heat. Yeah, man, and I don't even play Smash Brothers and you don't either right? Right? No, I don't and I was still super excited for this stream. This is the only stream of smash that they've done where I've watched every bit of it that I sat and watched from the beginning to the end because I was so excited to just see what the hero was doing. And so I have a question for you because you won't back you watch more of that than I did. But I've kind of like red things up on ya. So so what's the deal with the RNG with the heroes that people either are loving or not loving from what I understand? What happens is that you're down smash where you you hold down and press B. It gives you a menu like in battle and it will have a random randomly. You did list of abilities on there and it can be anything from flak which is the biggest RNG where it will automatically kill your opponent with a high fail rate to having I can't even remember any of the others off the top of my head but where you can cast frizz or cast other spells that are on Dragon Quest buff. Yeah and cast some of the Dragon Quest spells. So there you don't know what you're getting every single time you use use that but you can constantly redo it to get the one that you want. People are hurt about flak being an automatic kill, but you don't know when it's going to do that as well. As you don't know when that character is going to actually have flak as a as an option. So people are talking about trying to not let the heroes in tournaments because of the one-hit kills, which I think is ridiculous. Yeah, because it's not guaranteed right? I saw I saw that online this past. There is a petition and it was like they're trying to get like 500 signatures and they almost had it already and it's just like I don't know that's crazy to me. I think it's silly and I don't think anything like that's gonna happen. Oh, yeah, but it's because I know I know a lot of the tournaments and things like that really do care about fairness and if it had been an automatic kill, yeah, absolutely. I think that should not be tournament legal if you can just walk in and random get that ability and automatically kill your Moment but when you have it at random to get it and at random to actually work you're running on double a double negative there where you're unlikely to have it work when you want it to so, I don't think I don't think that it's a big deal. I mean, I don't play it. Obviously. I mean it's not something I'm really involved in but I'm I don't see anything wrong with it. Honestly. It's not any sillier than anything else and smash and you said you're thinking about Buying the game or at least the DLC for it. Yes, I am. So what I want to do is I'm thinking about game Flying Smash Brothers used one of the free use one of the free trials to get the smash game and then by the the DLC for just the DQ stuff because they sell the hero at 599 and then you can buy the like me fighter costumes where you get Veronica and Jade and the Dragon Quest one here are the Dragon Warrior you get that for I think 99 cents each. So for about 10 bucks, you can get the DQ stuff and play around with it on like a month free thing. That's all I would care about really anyway. So what I'm thinking about doing is if I can get it in before I come visit you next weekend. So I've got about two weeks now, I would love to do that get that stuff and then you and me play Smash together while we're in person. Or I could go to GameStop get a used copy of it. And then there's a seven day return window for used games there so I could see myself doing that while I'm down there for you and me to play together and give that a shot but I don't want to pay the $60 for smash. I know that I'm not going to get $60 worth of value out of it, but I want to play it and I don't know another way to really do that other than you know, rent it or or take take Advantage of return policies, you know, why you were speaking about this. I just realized I can probably I think we have the switch version at work and I can probably borrow it for a few days while you're down and then you would just have to pay for the DLC stuff. I will absolutely be the one to pay for the Hero DLC stuff. If you can grab the game like that that way we can we can totally do that and post videos of it on Twitter and things like that like do that on the patreon. And you will murder me. I'm terrible at smash. I play dude. I'm you've played so much more smash than I have like this is going to be fun. That's why I want to do it is because I know that neither of us is good at smash. See I really haven't I played my wife and I played the N64 smash. I don't even know what that one was called. I think that was just Super Smash Brothers. It just Super Smash Brothers. I just replaying that on the N64 at her house when we were dating. And so I got decent at that one. I have barely played the Wii U version and have barely barely played the switch one and I haven't ever played any of the others and I'm really bad at it. I mean, I always lose my strategy usually is to get somebody like like it was a pit that can fly around. Uh-huh, and I just kind of fly around and try to let everybody else destroy each other. And then just like kind of shootout arrows randomly at people that's kind of like my strategy and it's not a good strategy and I pretty much always come in last place and I have it have it taken the effort to get good at Smash and I just don't really like fighting games is another thing. So I'm pretty confident you will you will beat me at this. I don't know. We'll see that's why I want to do it. I know we would have fun. It's just going to be ridiculous. It's gonna be just these two idiots. Idiots bashing each other and it's going to be so much fun. Yeah, maybe so maybe so I don't know the stuff that I was most excited about I think from this past week was we did get quite a bit of news related to Dragon Quest 11s, that's coming. This was on a stream, right? This was a Japanese stream. They run on on the weekend. Yeah. It was their big they did like a like a Dragon Quest you there. They'll August 3rd, and it was a big event to celebrate Dragon Quest 10 for me. Earlier in the episode 4. I was talking about you know stuff. That's not so good. If you live over here a lot of the DQ stent stuff. It looks so amazing and makes you want to play it so bad and and I'm just like anyway, so mostly most of the stream for me was just like how I just pouring like salt in my eyeballs. Um, we're it was you know, it looks cool but so much of it is, you know, only in Japan or only in Asia, whatever but the the Dragon Quest 11 s stuff did look good and assume it's International that we're getting a demo for driving past 11 s they didn't give a release date for it yet. I don't know if you saw that or anywhere or not, but we are getting a date. We're getting a demo. I was just like, you know, I've beat the game ever played the crap out of that game of a PS4. So at first I was like maybe I won't get the demo I plan on playing the full game, but you know, how about I do the demo, but they did. Say that the the save file transfers over Russia's get so now definitely play the demo, but you also annexed I guess in exchange for trying out the demo you get a skill seed. Yes, when you transfer the data over to use end game which you know skill seeds are always really nice to have in these games and then you also get this is like a translation of it, but it's basically the one descended from erdrich. Yeah. It's a premium here. Hero card for Dragon Quest Rivals which right now is still you know in Japanese and who knows if we'll get it over here, but I do know a lot of people who play it even though it's in Japanese. Yeah. I mean I see people do it because you can get it with a Japanese Apple account or iOS account. However, whatever you use I think to get it because I know I know sack Chief plays it and I've seen other people do it. I just don't know how to it might be on switch. We're using a Japanese a Nintendo account to yes. That's what they did. I know that's what's that keep does. I've seen him talk about it and we're switch friends. So I slept seem that he has it on this one. Okay, I got you. I've never seen him pop on playing that one. So you have seen other things. It's really nice with the switch. I know this is kind of a tangent, but I feel like I have because you can sync it to like your Twitter friends. I have way more switch friends and like PS4 friends and some just my it's constantly popping up other people playing and always makes me happy when I see that they're playing something. And Dragon Quest related it does and I see people want play Smash in the same thing. I'm like, oh I bet you're playing the hero. Yeah, and I guess since the event was mostly focused on Dragon Quest 10, a lot of the announcements that came are some of the announcements that came with the Dragon Quest 11s came from that and so yeah, they confirmed that that is World dungeon, you will get like a I guess a town and a dungeon from Dragon Quest 10. One of the past worlds that's all she visit in the end game. So that'll be pretty cool. They had, you know teased big news for Eric for like a month and everybody was like, oh my gosh, it's going to be the new Dragon Quest Monsters game, which I know you and I talked about in one of the earlier episodes of this show. Yeah, and I'm crazy excited for that one to get an ounce. So that was one of the ones I wanted to get get announced it this one because I was excited to see when it was going to be released and hopefully localized. yeah, and I mean I remember, you know, seeing the concept art of like Eric and his sister as kids like last November and they were like Hey, we're doing a monsters game for consoles that you know has Eric and his sister is a protagonist and I was like November of last year and then since then it's like nothing we have I got anything from it and which kind of goes into the next announcement here is that you and I along with a lot of people assumed this was going to be Yeah, the announcement for that Monsters game turns out slightly disappointed here turns out he gets a new outfit translate over into the north leather style. And this one is going to be in just the switch version. Right? The new outfit doesn't come out for any of the previous releases. That's a great question. I don't actually know because the outfits from this manga that's being done by I don't know if I'm going to say his name right? But it's Hiro. Mashima. Yeah, and I think he does the fairy tale. Yeah. Yeah that but this outfit looks like fairytale it does. Yeah, and so I guess that it's coming out on August 21st in a magazine. Okay, and so it's totally just from everything I've read. It's just kind of like a one-off like there's just going to be this one off manga that's in this magazine. It's starring Eric. He has this armor or outfit I guess is more appropriate he has this outfit and Then you can get that outfit for Dragon Quest 11 and I don't know if it's it may be for older versions as well because you get it through you redeem a code, right? It said that the code is going to come with a book from everything. I've researched online. No one seems to have like a clear answer for what the book is because they haven't announced the book yet. I assume it's going to be like a special edition maybe even like a hardcover edition of the manga since it's premiering on August 21st and a magazine I assume. That it's like maybe like a print Standalone Edition or special edition or something that's got to come out and it has a code inside of it. Yeah. I mean that's just kind of my guess. I have no clue. I don't know and I haven't seen anything other than like there was a piece of art drawn that he used to tease it a while back. I've seen that one and apparently it's going to be like Eric before the luminary stuff like before it's a prequel something. And but I don't know much about it. Other than that, like what all's going on with the story or or whatever else. Like I don't know when it's coming out. Actually, I do know when it's coming out. I see it right now says August 21st. I was looking it up just as we said that and I literally said that three times in our conversation this now you're talking to a brick wall. I may have been cooking for three times. I've told I told you this all this and just said and everybody. Now has a view of our entire friendship. It's true. It's just me talking to a brick wall. And then after that's I'm done with the conversation pretty koalas. Like I'm sorry. What were you saying? Yeah. So based on the fact that it's called North leather style. And I know that's kind of just like the translation from quite people got from the Japanese announcement. Assuming it's because some just a minor Dragon Quest 11 Are here is because of where Eric's from that it's light has to do with an outfit of his time with the Vikings and stuff because that's in the north and it's all snowy and stuff. So I'm assuming yeah, that's where that comes from. Then they also confirmed 411's that there's going to be a harder version of the direct Conan Quest where all the party have shy pox which tripods if you remember and 11 like makes your party get embarrassed at random times. I hate that. Mechanic in every single RPG I've ever played. I don't like it either. Oh, I hate it. Like that. One is the most frustrating of any I would rather not wear armor not be able to wear defensive items then have shy pox that it's my least favorite part of Final Fantasy 9. It's every single time that a game makes it where my characters just don't respond at random that I get so frustrated, I'll end up stop playing the game for A little bit like put it down and come back like the next day because I'm just like I can't deal with this. It's too frustrating. Yeah, I don't like it either and I guess with this one you like everybody just has not even just a randomly get Afflicted with it. It's just a flat-out have it right where it's not curable or or yeah. I just can't know just that's just a hard. No. Yeah that kind of rounds it up for the Dragon Quest 11s announcements that we got, but we still had other Dragon Quest. He's this past week before you get into that. It's time for that fun little segment that we like to call Shameless self-promotion Shameless Bernadette attempted here. I changed it again. People are not people are never going to recognize the theme song unless you can settle on when like weird like tune. Oh well, so by the time this episode is live. Hopefully our patreon patrons will have there. Are stickers that we mailed out for everybody that was eligible for the stickers we meld those out and we do have a patreon so really quickly while we're still in the Shameless self-promotion segment. I'm going to let BJ tell you guys about our patreon, but first I just have to say this like story really quickly for patreon. So I was smelling the stuff out a few days ago, right and I had to buy stamps and so our patrons will knit might notice that the Ups that they receive our gigantic like this is gonna make me sound like an old man but back in my day stands for like the size of like your thumbnail you like slap them on like the upper right hand corner and you like melt them out. It was like no big deal, you know. Yeah, they're also like 30 cents or something like let's cheaper. But anyway, these stamps are like huge but I had to buy them. So I went up and I was like to the lady at the post office and like hey, can I get a sheet of stamps? And she was like, do you have a specific design you want and I was like no. No, and she was like well, we just got a bunch of new ones in do you want any of these and point it to like a display that had all the new ones and I was like, no any of them are fine. I just need stamps and she pulls up the sheet has the giant dogs dog stamps on it. Okay, and she's like, she's like, how do these work and I was like, yeah, that's good. And she was like, yeah, we just got these in fresh yesterday. They have all these service animals on them. And I was like, okay cool. And she's like sitting there holding them for a minute. She's like, so do you want them and like yeah, those are fine. I mean, they don't cost extra do they and then she looks at me like I'm a moron and it's like they're just stamps. Like I'm like you just talk to me like the stamps saved your grandfather in Wartime and now you're like condescending to me like they're just stamps. They're just staying anyway, so to all of of our patreon patrons know that there is a semi interesting story behind the stamps. They're huge. They take up like half the size of the envelope like, oh my God over in that right-hand corner, you know, they're like gigantic stamps. But anyway, that's my story. Why don't you tell all the nice folks listen to us about patreon. So if you go to patreon.com slash Dragon Quest FM, you can get your own giant dog stamp for being a patron at $3 or higher and it will Also come with a drag Quest FM sticker. You can pledge higher than that and you can get a custom Discord role. You can even tell us what you want to hear about on the show and get to choose an episode topic. You can do that at patreon.com slash Dragon Quest FM. All right, and then next part of our Shameless self-promotion segment is we do have an upcoming Q&A episode that we want to announce right now speaking of the patreons kind of brought this up because as one of the like early things our patrons have access to as they got to go ahead and ask us questions early for us to ponder before this episode comes out. So if you have any questions for us that you'd like us to try to talk about on the show, you can send those questions to you can email to social at Dragon Quest dot f m you can also leave us voice messages with your questions on a tanker dot f m / Dragon Quest / messages and then you can also just ask us on Twitter will be making a Twitter announcement around the time. This episode goes live probably so you can ask us on there as well and we're going to try to answer as many questions as possible during that special Q&A episode. And also if you guys want to submit questions, it doesn't have to just be about Dragon Quest if you have a question for us about anything will answer whatever you ask. All right, and then the next Some of the other news that we got this past week Dragon Quest your story came out again. Only in Japan will cry our tears later. But I drank West your story came out last Friday. So I noticed on your notes here. You said there's a spoiler discussion on the Dragon Quest and this court. Yeah, there is a link in the notes to the Dragon Quest in Discord where a lot of the Dragon Quest Community is now meeting there's a yours. Worry Channel, and there's a lot of spoilery discussions from people who have seen it and there's actually a lot of discussion about how things are going to get translated and get subtitles for Americans. Well, I'd say Americans but English speakers and so it's very contentious right now. People are not terribly happy about this movie. It doesn't bother me. But when I told you this morning, how did you feel about it? Yeah, so it's really contentious about this ending and I I don't think it's that bad because of the way that they're approaching the movie like when I told you this morning like I'm I didn't care about spoilers. So I went into the discussions and looked it up. So what do you think about it? So my whole thing I know I said this on Twitter previously about this too. So because I'm not on Discord so you just asked you what the ending was because I've seen people talking about not liking the ending but hadn't actually found out what it was. So you were telling me what the ending. And I think even I think I even guessed it before you before you text me the answer. I was like, I'm generally not one of those people. We're like a bad ending ruins the whole thing for me, right? Like I can still enjoy the bike all the stuff that came before it even if it even if I don't like the ending Hannah it's so even if I if I end up watching this movie and I don't like that part of it. I think I could still enjoy all the stuff that came before it this related to Dragon Quest 5, so too. It's like it's not a big deal a scale of like 1 to 10. It's like maybe a to to me. I got I still want to see you as someone to watch it and I just that's not gonna ruin it for me. I don't think I'll watch it. I'm tempted to watch it in Japanese just to see I know you've mentioned that before that you wanted to watch it in Japanese. And as soon as I'm able to find a way to watch it in Japanese, I would love to watch the the an official version of it. Like I'll pay for it if I could get it just to be able to see it because I think it would be fun to watch so I don't mind the ending. I think a lot of people do obviously, but if you want to get involved in that discussion there are there everywhere on Twitter, and there's the link in the notes here to the Dragon Quest in Discord, and you can also come into the geek geek media Dragon Quest channel on our Discord at Discord not geek media.com and we'll be talking about stuff DQ related and that's just included then lastly. We just wanted to put a little spotlight. On Dragon's Den for a moment. You guys have heard us mention this before BJ. I think indeed from one of our very first episodes you mentioned Buddhists.com, right? Yeah. She's Dragons Den people who are listening to this. I'm fairly confident know what Dragons Den is already. But if you don't it's just fantastic fan site all about Dragon Quest. It's been around since 1997. Yeah. It's been a long time. So it's been around for like 22 years. So So which, you know may be older than some people who are listening. So it's been around a really long time and you and I well I don't want to speak for you, but I will say when I was first getting into Dragon Quest Dragons Den was one of the first places I found two kind of nerd out about Dragon Quest it was you told me about it because I didn't find it on my own but I lurk on the forums all the time and very rarely post anything and it's and so, you know, so they're just a great part of the community. And so we just wanted to kind of put the spotlight on them for a moment, but also be Jay and I yeah, we like playing games at a previous episode. We played that game where we tried to guess if it was, dr. Agenor BJ saying what and so Dragons Den and addition to like forums and all kinds of other stuff. They have some games on there. One of the ones that I thought would be fun to do is there's a personality quiz that you can take. It's a breed really short personality quiz. I'm just interested in seeing what you get you 10 is I I don't want to I'll tell you who I usually get I've taken it twice and I've gotten the same person both times. I haven't taken it in a long time. So I'll tell you about that in a minute, but I want to ask you these questions and then kind of discuss a little bit of the questions and then just see who you get. It's not really interested. I'll read it you give me your answer and I'll just put it in so so yeah. But um, so your gender what's your gender be? I'm male your well do you prefer ends casinos are bars. I prefer ends. Really? Yeah. I'm not a not much of a casino person. Not much of a bar person, uh in games and real life out of my hotel. Yeah. I mean, I think I'm the same way in real life. But you know, I do have fun at the casinos and Dragon Quest I explore the ends looking for free stuff and RPGs more than I do casinos. Yeah that that is true I guess so if you Across a wounded monster who asked for help. Would you leave it helped it or kill it? I'd help it help that. I mean to say that your bleeding heart you. I really am question 4 Dost thou love me? Yes, of course. I love everybody. Yeah and tell everyone. I love them. I love everyone listening to this right now. The people of the land pay enough taxes not enough taxes too many taxes too many taxes too many taxes. When fighting which do you prefer strong weapons strong magic or no preference strong magic? Yeah, and you you deal with that. I'm more of a weapon guy myself. I know you like the great sword. Yeah. I know you always like magic in these games. I do. Do you prefer caves Towers or castles Towers guess a yeah. That's that's the same for me. I always liked exploring the towers and Dragon Quest games. Yeah, and in Dragon Quest Builders to I am my next big project is a tower. I'm expanding on the castle. But the one I'm really looking forward to is building myself a wizard tower which goes back to the magic that it does second again. Do you like to fly? Yes. Yes, I do. Yes both in games and relax and real life. Yes, im a fan of the AirTrain live to fight another day. They sell eat I love food. Yeah, that's about right puff-puff sure that you gotta always say yes in these games. Yeah, you always say yes to a puff puff like some of the funniest scenes in these games come from say yes to puff puff. Yeah, and and there's an achievement. Well a trophy achievement whatever you want to call it in 11 to get puff puffed in every town isn't there. It's not an achievement for every town. There's not one in every town. It's just for every For meeting for meeting every puff puff girl. Okay. Okay, I get it. There's like I want to say there's like nine of them. There's not a whole lot anyway, so yeah, that's not too bad. Not many more questions almost the end here. The dragon lord is a big softie evil or cool evil dragon lord is evil. Oh see. I think he's kind of cool. I mean not like a cool like I want to hang out with him. But like I think he looks good. He does look cool. But I mean, he's evil what you're lucky he's Bad guy slimes make for a good practice pets or soldiers. Oh, I'm gonna go with pets because I like having slimes on my team more than I like killing them. But as we've discussed in the past, I do like killing Slimes like I always kill slimes but I like getting them in befriending them even more. Yeah and the same way pets is definitely my answer for that one girls shouldn't be allowed to go on adventures, true false or up to the girl. I'm to the girl do what you want. 8 we're now I'm not Jack telling you what to do good lost reference like 15 years later. That's that's what I do right there like three people listening and you understood what I was talking about urge recor load. Oh, ah, I'll urge Erick. Yep. Yeah. I mean, I'm a latecomer to DQ. So I didn't grow up necessarily thinking about Lodo a roto. So I'm gonna go with her drink a little gambling at a casino. Yeah. Maybe not for me. Yeah, I'll gamble a little bit at a casino. I don't spend the time that you and Grace do but I'll spend some time there. I'm not going to do a happy dance hit the jackpot, but I'm like, yeah. Alright cool. What's good for me? We'll see it's better doing it there that in real life because I took my wife we went to the Hollywood Hard Rock Hotel and Casino right in Hollywood, Florida just as like a fun day trip and we went there with money. We're like, okay, we're going to spend like this. Yeah, $50 a piece whatever it was and you know just have fun or whatever because that's something she really wanted to do and it's still eats away at me a little bit is she had really good luck and whine like a bunch of money, but then she lost it all because she kept wanting to play the slot machines just because they were fine. Oh, yeah, and I'm like, that's not how you gamble. You stop once you get money, but she's just like it's fun to play Slots. So but it's fine. You know, we said we were going there to just like spend the 50 bucks or whatever and have a good time. You know, it works but I much prefer the Dragon Quest kind of Casino where I don't really have to like, you know, spit out fifty a hundred bucks. Yeah. I understand that. So next question. Would you like to tell me of your quest so that I can record it in the Imperial Scrolls? Yes, you should because if you don't save your progress, then you're in a lot of trouble. That's true. Unless there's a quicksave. So to say no in some of the mobile games when I've just quick saved, but that's the about the only time otherwise I pretty much save constantly. Yeah, so two more questions to go you might want to find some companions to Aid thee sounds good. I'll think about it or I work alone. Sounds good. Sounds good. Yeah, you gotta have your Companions right? I do Daniel Boon companions o top last question. If you're having difficulty with someone you should talk it out ignore it as best. You can crush them. Let it resolved itself or make a big deal out of it. Oh see. This one's tough. This one's tough because in real life, I take all of these at some point except for crush them. I'm not a crush them kind of person because I I try to let it resolved itself at first like that's the first thing I do but most of the time it comes to a talk at out so I'm gonna have to say let it resolved itself because that is tends to be my first one. It's like this is where I'm going to go first and see you know, if I don't have to have a conflict here. Okay, that's surprising you expected me to talk it out or crush them. No. I thought you'd make a big deal out of it. I don't you see you. You just seem a little bit like that. You my I don't know I'm very dramatic, but I don't like confrontation. Yeah, maybe that's it. Maybe it's just your dramatic. So when it comes up if it comes ahead in the talking it out, like I'm going to get really flustered and angry and and and be real high maintenance about it like this morning my wife and I got into an argument when I had to take the dog to the vet. My medicine wasn't ready at the pharmacy and like I made a big deal out of it, but generally I try to let it resolved. Itself because I try to ignore I try to ignore it, but I want it to get done. So I work toward getting it done. So so before I click who I am. I right here. I just want to point out on the dragons dens site here that they put thanks to Dragon chaser for help with the original Graphics questions and outcomes for the personality quiz, so I want to make sure we say that part everybody gets their credit. So let's find out. Oh, hey, this is surprising you are Ragnar. That is not near what I expected a person of Honor see things through to the end of whatever strong and strong and Noble you see it as a responsibility to help those in need and protect the weak. Although mostly serious. You do enjoy life and her happy knowing that you're making the world a better place. It's not untrue. I can kind of see that. Yeah. It's a strong and Noble not so much but because I'm made out of spaghetti and And like a low but the rest of it see anything through to the end. Yeah, I bounced between too many things. So so so I usually in the past I have got nothing on that right but this time but try not to take to heart because Nevin is not my favorite. He looks really cool though. Like I really love his costume. Yeah. See, I think he looks really lame and he doesn't have much personality. But I mean I Them a lot as a magic is really strong. So I use them a lot in 6 but this time actually I got blurry yet, huh? So I'm not sure what you mean. It's been a long time since I've taken this so I guess you know, my answer is probably changed a little bit. So borya says wise dedicated a teacher willing to share your experiences and knowledge very practical direct and serious. Let's just say you're not the life of the party resourceful when needed you see Life is a series of inconvenient commitments which serve note in Ah, that's perfect. That's kind of that is you I would like to point out that that is so true because for Christmas this last year you guys I wanted to buy Austin tickets to a local real life Mario Kart event where you went around and actually played Mario Cart and go cars. They have weapons and everything and I wanted to make sure Sure, so I asked his wife and she said I don't think he's going to want to leave the house and do something and so but you should ask him. So I asked him and that was his response. It means I have to go somewhere and so he passed it up because it would have been inconvenient. Well, he was so speaking of that. Grace was telling me my wife Grace was telling me yesterday that she had something big planned for me for my birthday this year because I'm In 30, yes, and I got really scared because I thought she was going to throw me a surprise birthday party and it basically turned into that episode of Parks and Rec for like Leslie Knope is like it's Ron Swanson's birthday and he's all nervous because he thinks she's throwing him a surprise party right Grace was like, you know, I thought about it, but then I realized who was turning 30, and I know that that would be like your nightmare you would show up and everybody would be like surprise and that you just like leave. Turn around like I've seen you do that kind of thing at work before when we do when I worked in the resource center together, like everyone was happy for you and you actually do turn around and walk out the door and we had to chase you isolate barley and I chased you. It's like nope. I'm good. Y'all finger guns. So lastly here thanks, you know to Buddhist and to Dragons Den for all the great that they do for the Community and also for giving us this quiz that we were able to take on the show today.
