Sean “Damp Footsteps” (03:22.278)

You did. You've been calling it since since episode like one. You said this. You said we're going to make it.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (03:27.084)

I think you're yeah, but you never know shit happens an Asteroid could have blown up this fucking earth a long time ago in episode 2 We would have never know when we peaked, you know episode 3 or now But thank you for asking. I'm doing well Fucking I just loaded up on like nine pieces of pizza before getting on to record with you So I don't know what's gonna happen Yeah, I may have to run to the bathroom or I might just shit myself like you did once but

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (03:34.746)

true, very true, exactly.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (03:45.562)

shit.

That's a whole pizza.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (03:53.934)

yes. Yeah, strategy still holds up.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (03:56.591)

Yeah, we'll find out. We'll find out man. We'll fucking see. I'm good and I just want to say I hope everybody else listening to us is feeling good as well because it's fucking gonna be beautiful day today.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (04:09.34)

Yes, it is. Yes, it is. Hey, if you're listening to us and you're driving, look at that beautiful bird out there. It's out your window. It's beautiful, huh? It's wonderful. I know. I can see it. It's pretty cool. Yeah. Stop tailgating me please. For the love of God, I'm going to speed limit. Get out. Joshua, like we do every week on this podcast, nothing's changed so far. Do you have anything that you are sipping on for this episode, buddy?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (04:16.59)

Or that pumper sticker that says you're too close back off dick Yeah

Joshua “Already Behind You” (04:33.538)

Yes, I do have something I am sipping on and I don't know if I regret it at this point, but I've been talking about these Cali squeezes for the last like five episodes and I got a shit ton of them. But I'm circling back to the one I enjoyed probably the most and it's the passion fruit that I'm sipping on tonight. And this shit's really good. It's all about passion and it just when it your lips, it just...

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (04:39.655)

no.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (04:51.332)

Okay. yeah. Passion fruit. Hell yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (05:02.222)

tastes really fucking good. I'm not gonna try to break it down like Sean does. It just tastes good. Go out and try it. Cheers everybody.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (05:07.868)

There he's taking a big old swig right now. Josh was bringing endorsement. Tastes good.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (05:14.19)

It's beautiful. Yeah. Yeah. There you go. What do you got? I mean, what are you sipping all over there, man? I know you always got some either special or fucking old like me.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (05:17.01)

Of course You know This is special and it's old, you know, it's an old standby an old classic kind of like your two boys here on this podcast You know old classics were special, you know I have a house made margarita just house margarita. So I'm a little cup here That's what I'm sipping on in the corner, but I also have some more Imperial Pog everybody. Yeah Imperial Pog for your Imperial Pog needs delicious

So it's not open yet. I'm gonna go ahead and open that right now. But Joshua, I've slowly fallen in love with the Imperial Pug. Like I was in love with the tropics as it was so titled before, but now Imperial Pug has taken over my heart and soul. Mm. Mm. Yeah, no. Yeah. Yeah, I still have a bunch of Happy Dad ice teas in my refrigerator that...

Joshua “Already Behind You” (06:02.573)

I I believe you too, because you just don't drink things over and over and over again, just like I probably would, you know, just because I bought a lot of it. Yeah, you'd love that shit.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (06:16.23)

are probably just going to go there until they go, they're going to sit there until they go bad because they were not my favorite. So Joshua, if you ever come up to visit me, you can have those. So.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (06:20.494)

Mmm.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (06:24.951)

Wait, could you like, I mean, I don't we again, we don't even though we start this at these episodes with drinking every time, would it be like what if he just went out and just gave them to the homeless? Is that a bad idea? Like people give away socks, they give away shoes, they give away other shit. Like what if he's going around having now booze to homeless people with that? Would people hate you for that? Is that bad?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (06:35.108)

I don't know. I don't know if... don't... Yeah?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (06:43.93)

I mean, I guess I could. mean, I don't see why I couldn't, but I don't know. I don't know if morally that's right. You know, what if they have an addiction problem, you know, and I'm feeding into that addiction and they're trying to wean themselves off and I just give them like, I'm just like their Messiah of the sudden I hand them my happy dad iced tea, hard iced tea, you know, and then they're like, my God. And then like they relapse and go crazy or some shit. I don't want to be responsible for that.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (07:09.315)

Like it's all your fault. Like you don't want to be the reason society is collapsing because you're giving away alcohol to people.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (07:13.944)

No, not at all. At least not for that. I'd rather it be something different. You know, I'd rather I be the reason for society collapsing because I did something weird like I smashed a butterfly or something, you know, little butterfly effect.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (07:23.727)

Hmm, so it's like let let the alcohol let the the liquor stores do it and don't let them legally I Mean what I mean, okay. Never mind. I'll just give it up. I'll stop right there. Holy shit I could just go on tangents about random shit when we get going on this fucking thing I don't want to bore people like I do every episode. There you go,

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (07:28.75)

Yeah, let the liquor stores do it legally.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (07:37.937)

No

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (07:43.602)

Oh my god. I mean, that's the whole point of this fucking podcast is just us speaking our thoughts into the, into the ether, you know, whether or not somebody listens or not, we just kind of speak our, speak our words out there and hopefully, uh, you know, they go somewhere, but most of the time they don't.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (07:57.359)

Well, I mean, in that case, I really hope this episode finds the homeless community because I would love to do a poll with specifically the homeless community. Would you take socks? Or alcohol from Sean if he put two of them in here like like to all the homeless people?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (08:02.386)

You

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (08:07.898)

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (08:13.862)

Hmm. It's like those TikToks, like the TikToks who like, I've seen this before where it's like you have the choice of liquor or money and most of the time they choose the liquor. I think that's where you're probably going. That's true. One will keep you warmer longer. The other will keep you warm for a short time, but you'll feel great. You know,

Joshua “Already Behind You” (08:24.727)

Yeah, I mean, both are going to keep you warm.

I mean...

Joshua “Already Behind You” (08:34.895)

Yeah, yeah, I mean feeling great does keep you warm, right? Like sometimes it's just a mindset.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (08:39.302)

Like, I guess so.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (08:42.463)

I I mean you see that like, okay again tangents. Sorry everybody When when I think about this keeping warm is a mindset. I'm sure everybody has seen that like monk sitting in the snow It's like fucking minus 10 degrees and the person's out there in their underwear letting their dick hang out and just bald with no hair on their body and they're just Sitting and steam is coming off their body Like it is a mindset, isn't it? Isn't like a like right?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (08:54.012)

Yeah.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (09:07.334)

I mean, yeah, it is. mean, I've said, yeah, like 15 times, but yes, yes, it is a mindset. But I feel like, I feel like monks have a stronger mindset than your average human being, you know, especially a homeless human being. Like I feel like the homeless human being mindset is a little bit down in the dumps. Pardon my pun. You know, so like it might be a little harder to, to envision mentally you're in a warm state of mind. So, I don't know.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (09:12.301)

Okay, all right. Let's make sure I'm not wrong here.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (09:23.042)

You

Joshua “Already Behind You” (09:28.143)

Okay, let's see what she did there.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (09:36.303)

there. Okay, just another random tangent.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (09:36.786)

Nah man, it's crazy.

Random tangents and speaking of more structured tangents, Joshua. Let's head on over to the housekeeping corner Mia. Thank you for the transition. Appreciate you. You're the best Joshua a little bit of housekeeping this week. Not too much housekeeping, but a little bit Hey everybody. Hi Welcome Hello Just real quick. We've changed the Listen these margaritas are getting to me. All right

Joshua “Already Behind You” (09:48.9)

Perfect.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (10:02.176)

What's four hellos and a welcome depending what language you speak the fuck man They get it you said fucking high seven times already, right get past the greeting

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (10:10.374)

Papa was over here pre drinking, pre gaming. I want the people to know that they are welcome on this podcast. You know, we're open to everybody. So just hi, hello, welcome. Come on in, sit down. You should know, I go to your house all the time. Anyways, moving on. Listen, I did some updates to the shorts, everybody. So you may be noticing some of the shorts are a little bit differently.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (10:20.537)

Jesus Christ. Are you the asshole that shows up and like rings the fucking doorbell 10 times? like, open the door, open the door, open the door. Fuck dude. Get to the point. Just kidding.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (10:39.47)

edited and if you haven't noticed, hey, good on me, because you didn't notice, but we are using our branded fonts now. So if you notice the fonts and the captions are a little different, that's why it's because they're the font that we use for everything now. So everything's more consistent with branding. that's the biggest piece of transparency. want to give you guys out there. So if you notice that little change on some of the videos of shorts, then you understand kind of why eventually we'll transition our captions to that same font. but for right now,

We're just sticking to the shorts to make it a little bit more cohesive. So there is that. Head on over to Sorry For The Lay.Live and you can check out this episode in its entirety, sorry, in the video form entirety. And also use that little transcript button on the bottom to read everything. Maybe you'll even see a little preview of what we, a little excerpt of what we talked about earlier, before we started to actually record. And you can only get that available on the Sorry For The Lay website. So you'll be interested to know what Joshua said about me taking a shit on myself.

But other than that buddy, I didn't really have too many other housekeeping things. Just visit the website, get some merch. We can also pick up this beautiful pirate shirt in time for Halloween. I know we're a few months early, but hey, Halloween's coming and we're celebrating spooky season. So sorry for the layout live slash merch is where you can pick up all the merch. And Joshua, there was only one word that I have this week to add to our algorithm. And that word is gecko. Apparently we've never said the word gecko before.

And so there it is, Gecko. I think Geckos are kind of creepy to be honest with you though.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (12:14.689)

Okay. Does it have to just be one word or could it be like a combined?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (12:19.832)

You can do whatever you want for the algorithm, buddy. I just had the one word because that's all I had time to look for. So, you know, yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (12:25.611)

Okay, I didn't know if we had like specific rules when it comes to these words, so I thought it asked me for next episode. I mean I don't know gotta ask

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (12:29.382)

there's no fucking rules to this. There's no, I mean, it would be, I guess the only rule would be if you can, if somebody's actually looking for it, you know, like what if somebody types in geckos into the search engine, you know, cause maybe they wanted to learn about gecko feeding structure or maybe the way you keep a gecko alive, you know, like, don't know if anybody's going to guess your flumb puzzle because I don't think anybody's looking up flumb puzzle.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (12:40.216)

Okay.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (12:55.351)

No, it's snizzle quack, buddy. Snizzle. Was it? Was that the glitter one? Yeah, was that the glitter one? Yeah, okay, I do remember that, yeah.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (12:57.778)

Well, flumpluzle was one of the other words. Do you remember? Yeah. Yeah, that was the glitter one. Yeah.

What word do you got this week buddy or what two words do you got?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (13:08.943)

I actually I actually don't have a word. That's why I wanted to ask why wanted to ask No, no, no, I did not I do not have a word today

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (13:12.379)

what? I thought you had a word. I was gonna be excited.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (13:20.048)

We're one episode away from episode 100 and we have no words to add to the algorithm. Kinda disappointed, you know?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (13:25.007)

I mean, I don't have one. I mean, could look one up really quick if you want me to Like I mean, okay. All right Okay Sorry, sorry everybody I'm not a man of many words. Okay. I'm a man of many gestures If you watch me bouncing around the screen, if you're just listening, you don't get it, but I fucking I'm like a bobblehead on screen I don't know how to fucking stay still Which this guy just moves way too much

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (13:30.111)

Nah, it's too late. It's too late. The aura's gone, you know? It's time. We gotta move on. You know, we gotta spin this shit up. People have already lost interest. So, you know.

That's very true. Very true. Yes.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (13:49.974)

shit. All right, buddy. Hey, before we move on to the chat with this section, the chat with this section, everybody, for those of you watching us for the first time or listening for the first time are the topics that we're going to talk about for the week. But before we do that, hey, I want to get something off my chest, Joshua, because something happened to me this week that kind of bummed me out a little bit. So. As we all do, we drive on the highway, most of us, unless you're afraid to and you take the back roads, right? I was driving on the highway from my way home from work.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (14:02.863)

Okay.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (14:18.45)

And they were doing construction on the side of the road, you know, repaving the asphalt and stuff. And usually when that happens, a lot of rocks get kicked up, right? A little bit of a, a little bit of a, a little bit of a mess happens. Um, Joshua, I had a rock hit my car windshield for the first time and crack it. Like this has never happened to me before in the way that it happened at this very moment last week. And, uh, it kind of me out because now it's like, uh, my car was once new.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (14:25.967)

shit.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (14:48.048)

And now it is no longer new, you know, it's like a, it's like losing your virginity for the first time, you know, you just lose that, that essence of who you once were and that feeling of purity to have the feeling of just impure thoughts for the rest of your life. And that's kind of like how I feel with my car now. It's no longer a pure, beautiful car. is tainted and destroyed.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (15:00.441)

Okay.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (15:14.29)

So I'm gonna get that fixed this week But I just wanted to get that off my chest because it was bugging me bugging me pretty hard So and it's like it was like right in my periphery like right in front of me not my peripheral It was literally right in front of me is where the crack happened Sad times buddy, sad times No, that's the that's the unfortunate part. So I was driving home late at night is the problem So I was driving home late at night and I only heard the sound of just a snap and a crack and a pop

Joshua “Already Behind You” (15:29.187)

Did you actually see the rock? Like it fly at your face? Did you like flinch? You know, like it one of those things.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (15:43.534)

And when I got to the house underneath the lights, I could see the crack just shine through. just thought sad times, sad times.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (15:51.94)

Are you sure it wasn't like some kid on the side of the road with the BB gun who's heard our podcast and was like, fuck this guy and he had it out for you. was just gunning for you down the freeway.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (15:56.786)

Hey, if I've reached the point where I'm trying to be assassinated by children, then you know what? Hey, I'm okay with that. I'm totally okay with that. If I've reached that point on the internet when kids hate me enough to end my life with a BB gun, so...

Joshua “Already Behind You” (16:03.651)

With BB guns? Yeah.

That's your...

Joshua “Already Behind You” (16:13.647)

That's the bar that has been set. Hey, well, you know what? I've had that happen to me before too, but I actually saw the rock. was actually like a fucking, it was like a marble size. Yeah, believe it or not, here's my stupid story about that is I work at a place where sometimes people fuck things up and things don't get to, product does not end up where it's supposed to go. Like it doesn't end up to people.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (16:16.24)

That's my bar right there, buddy. That's my bar.

Yeah. Oof, that's even scarier. Ugh.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (16:42.657)

So there was occasion, there was one occasion where I had to deliver a toilet to a customer, because for some reason they did not get it. What have you. So I was, I was driving and the same fucking thing happened to me. I was driving behind a truck full of gravel. This mine was during broad daylight though, behind gra I'm, literally watching the gravel fall off the back of the truck. And it was one of those like,

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (17:08.837)

off.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (17:12.121)

Was it I call them people fucking died the movies where people die all the time a final destination It was one of those moments where like I'm watching the rocks fall and I literally saw this happen before it actually hit my fucking windshield and I saw it and and it was funny and the reason I asked is it wet flint why if you flinched or not is because I saw this thing fly literally at my face and if that windshield wasn't there I probably would have fucking died

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (17:15.74)

Final destination. Yeah.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (17:24.55)

Oof.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (17:38.45)

It would have came straight at you like a bullet.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (17:40.633)

Yeah, which is which is kind of bananas because if you think about the tech and glass now back in the day that rock probably would have smashed through my fucking windshield and it would have been when it probably would have killed me and I would have drove off the road and probably ran somebody else over and it had been this whole fucking thing.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (17:45.074)

Mm-hmm.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (17:48.681)

yeah, yeah, easy.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (17:57.074)

No, you're not wrong. Like the Tekken glass is actually pretty crazy because it's like the top layer is literally glass and underneath that is like sometimes it's acrylic. Sometimes it's like an air pocket and then it's like acrylic and stuff. There's like layers to the glass. It's not just glass, which is pretty crazy.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (18:13.807)

And I have to add before we move on, do you have glass coverage on your car? Do you have like a deductible?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (18:18.53)

I, I, I, this is the shitty part. I did. And then when I redid my insurance, I was like, I've gone four years without it getting hit. Boom. Two weeks later. Yeah, I did. But the nice thing is that, I will say that the crack isn't that big. it's probably less than an inch big and, I'm just going to fill it up with some resin and call it done. So we'll be fine. We'll be fine. Everybody. So yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (18:23.159)

Mmm.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (18:29.059)

the did story. I did. I did have that.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (18:44.879)

Okay, so you'll fix it yourself home improvement project good, you know the shitty story about my you know, you know the shitty outcome about mine is is I heard that you could actually have your employer pay for that shit if you're delivering something on company time and No, I I had a question about it and and they basically looked at me sideways and what you want me to input what? So

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (18:48.006)

Yeah, real easy, real easy.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (18:57.395)

Damn, you should have got that shit replaced!

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (19:08.338)

So, nice.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (19:09.945)

That's kind of how that happened. So I ended up paying a hundred dollars to fucking fix my own windshield when I was delivering something on company time. So there you go. Fuck off for that one.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (19:11.388)

Go figure.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (19:21.293)

All right, buddy, let's move on to the chat with this section. Let's get through our topics this week. I know we've been going kind of long here. We already killed like 15 minutes, which I'm sorry, everybody. didn't episode 99. I didn't know it was going to be a blab fest. My bad. But these are the topics for the week. Luckily, there's only three of them. So hey, you know, sometimes we we kill time just so it works out. Oh, fun. The first topic that we have is the Howl of Maple Street. There's a part two now, everybody.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (19:42.415)

Joshua “Already Behind You” (19:48.047)

Hmm

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (19:49.802)

So let's do, let's go ahead and get onto the how of Maple street part tour number two, for those of you in the know.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (19:54.393)

Correct, correct.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (20:01.679)

Correct. Nature's natural villains. I love it.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (20:18.256)

If you guys didn't hear last week, I'm doing these short funny stories that is involving a ragtag team of, you know, vigilante superheroes. Nah, they're not superheroes. They're just regular people in a weird situation. And Joshua, the story continues with Maple Street part two. I'll let the announcer read the title and stuff like that. But I'll go ahead and share my screen with you and everybody watching and listening. keep on listening and enjoy. Joshua, here we go.

The Howl of Maple Street Part 2.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (23:23.826)

you

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (24:48.444)

Oops. There you go, Joshua. How did you feel about part two of the Maple Street saga?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (24:55.11)

I don't want it to end. Was that the end of it? Yeah exactly yeah yeah I mean it takes a little bit for me to I mean part one I was I was half you know I just yeah I needed I needed more I needed more

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (24:57.298)

It's getting pretty good, huh? It's getting pretty good.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (25:05.222)

Yeah, yeah, I mean, it's like it's like any good book, you know, like the first part of the book is like you're getting characters established. You know, you're kind of understanding what's going on. And then the second chapter in the book is like, OK, now that we're getting somewhere, we're getting somewhere, you know. So now the third chapter, when that comes out next week, you never know, you know, got some little like some little hints in there about some future stuff. So I like it.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (25:29.955)

So are we gonna, so I'm just curious from a creator's perspective here. Are we eventually just gonna put this story together in full on the website? Sorry for the delay.live, you know?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (25:38.492)

yeah, for sure. spoiler alert. It's going to go on the sorry for the laid out live website and it'll be there in its entirety with some beautiful art that's getting worked on in the background. I should know. Didn't want to spoil it, but you know, it's coming. So it's going to be really cool. And of course we'll show it off on, the podcast too. We'll put it on there. You guys will see it. Don't worry. Yeah. Part two buddy. I enjoyed that part. It was fun. Sure.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (25:51.541)

No, that's fun. No, that's really, that's really.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (26:00.463)

for you.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (26:04.181)

So, can I ask what is the, mean we're only in part two right? Usually you do this at the end of the book. Can I ask where some of this inspiration has come from? Like where...

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (26:13.522)

Just the fact that I want to tell some spooky storytelling. know, like I'm more of a big like comedy mix with scary. You know, I'm not like a like jump in your face boo kind of scary guy. So I just wanted to tell stories and I felt like this was a good place to start. So, yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (26:35.211)

Okay, okay, so you're not seeing raccoons like you don't know dave like like we're not bringing to life like real shit you're seeing You're kind of just okay Okay, this is perfect

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (26:39.012)

No, no, no, no, I just, no dude, this is just coming from the top of my imagination. I was just like, I'm just like this, I want a ragtag team of characters. I want situations that are like, it's supposed to be mysterious at first. And then when the story ends, it's like, it's just a raccoon in a cage or some shit like that. You know, that's my goal. But there will be all the way, there will be stories all the way up until Halloween.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (27:02.392)

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (27:08.688)

and then Halloween will be like the big finale. So there's that. So stick around and listen, and then eventually you'll be able to watch them.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (27:16.279)

Yeah, because I feel like when I do stories, because if you want, I don't know how far you got to go back for my Halloween part one and part two episodes that I did with with I mind you, I did visuals. I did I did the whole thing. I did visuals. I can't remember what episode is you're going to to go look back yourself. But I did a whole story. And I feel like sometimes when we do these stories, we draw from real life. And and I don't know if in my story I have to go back and watch that shit again. If any of that like

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (27:23.57)

Yeah. Joshua did videos. Yeah.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (27:40.587)

yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (27:46.371)

drew from my own personal experiences because I just feel like we do like maybe you know the raccoon maybe you know the Dave maybe you know that can empty beans that they kicked along the floor like maybe that symbolism for somebody that's been kicking along their life and that is the bean that's been kicked along

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (27:51.516)

Yeah.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (28:03.538)

I mean, yeah, could be subconsciously, you know? Subconsciously could be writing these characters in without me even knowing it.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (28:10.36)

Hmm. It's nice. That's really cool. Really, really cool. All right, buddy.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (28:11.154)

I don't know. I don't know.

Thanks buddy. Let's move on now. Hero who is the next topic. What do you got here?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (28:18.958)

Okay. So, I don't know how long this is actually going to go, but I'm last week. We, I tell, I told everybody I went out and saw Fantastic Four. I've seen Superman. We got through talking about happy Gilmore. So we've been talking about heroes and comic book stuff. And, and so what I wanted to do is I wanted to venture into heroes that maybe nobody even fucking knows about. Everybody's like hero who?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (28:47.826)

Okay.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (28:48.684)

Like who is this person? I've never even heard of them. And I want to know Sean. And if you're watching, spoiler, there's gonna be visuals everybody. if you're just listening, you may wanna click over to sorry for the delay.live or slide over to YouTube. Just YouTube.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (29:07.41)

YouTube.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (29:16.498)

Spoiler alert!

Joshua “Already Behind You” (29:18.594)

Spoiler. Yeah, exactly. I was thirsty today Should have went to work, but I'm drinking instead go figure. but yeah, so What I did is I went out and I did a little bit of research and I found some heroes that nobody May know about and I want to know Sean if you have ever heard of these heroes

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (29:41.266)

Well, first of all, you just said nobody knows about these heroes. like, okay. Are they, hang on, let me preference this by saying, are they real heroes, not chat GPT? Okay. All right. I'm just making sure. Just clarify, just clarify. All right.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (29:45.1)

Well, I mean, but maybe you do. Maybe you've heard of them.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (29:52.545)

No, they're real. If they're online, they're fucking real, man. If they're online and they were generated somehow, that means they pulled from somewhere. They do exist. OK. OK. OK. So first of all, you have to tell me if you think they're real and what their superpower is. OK. Like we did last time. Yes. Yes.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (30:04.85)

I'm not hopeful about this. So lay it on me. Lay it on me.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (30:13.522)

I have to tell you if I think they're real and what their superpowers got it real and super power. Okay, we're good Ready ready Roger Roger

Joshua “Already Behind You” (30:22.946)

Ready ready? Okay, Sean, for your first hero who I present to you, Toaster Boy.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (30:30.514)

Okay, well first clearly these are generated like chat GBT, okay got it

Joshua “Already Behind You” (30:37.303)

I mean, I didn't say either way if they were or they were not.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (30:41.678)

Okay. All right. So I'm looking right now at a visual of what appears to be a knockoff Superman. But instead of an S on his chest, it's a T for toaster. And on top of his head is like a toaster helmet, which granted looks pretty cool. real or okay. So first of all, real, no, not real, not real. Not at all. Yeah. Never heard of toaster boy. Second of all, his power I'm going to assume is making bread.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (30:46.926)

Hahahaha

Joshua “Already Behind You” (30:55.534)

Okay, all right.

Yeah, not real. Okay, so you've never heard of them. Okay, never never

Joshua “Already Behind You” (31:10.956)

You are very, very close.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (31:11.41)

Or should I say making toast?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (31:14.67)

I mean, you're so, you got the tip of it. You're like, you are right there. You wanna take one more guess?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (31:18.896)

What? Does he just toast things?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (31:22.572)

He actually makes the perfect piece of toast as his superpower.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (31:25.97)

Oh, okay, okay. So I'd specify whether or not the toast was perfect or burnt. I should have I should have known because what he's holding is a piece of perfectly toasted toast. So damn it. That's on me. That's on me, everybody. Sorry. Sorry, everybody.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (31:35.054)

Exactly. And he is Toaster Boy. Yeah, yeah. Okay. So, is this Toaster Boy saving your life or not?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (31:44.274)

If I'm in like the middle of the desert about to starve, hell yeah, dude. Hell yeah, you saving my life, you So.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (31:48.814)

Alright, do you know how you summon toaster boy?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (31:55.302)

How I summon Toaster Boy. my God. What do I, do I cut a pat of butter and say, man, I really wish I had some perfect toast with this.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (32:02.168)

No.

You just gotta click the toaster a couple times, you know, a little...

He pops up.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (32:10.812)

that would that help me like me I guess I guess if it's a toast emergency you know and you're like should I need this bagel like right now and my toaster is busted just hit the little thing

Joshua “Already Behind You” (32:13.55)

You

Yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (32:22.646)

I mean people fuck up toast all the time so this person should exist I'm just saying this is a hero that you may need at some point so putting it out there alright Sean number two Sean have you ever heard of baloney babe

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (32:25.618)

true that's yeah you're not wrong you're not wrong

Yep.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (32:39.666)

Bologna, babe. All Bologna, babe's got my Bologna going. So this OK, first of all, no, have not heard of Bologna, babe. But Bologna, babe, looks like another knockoff Superman, except with an S on the chest. It is a B surrounded by a giant circle of Bologna. She is holding a toast shaped Bologna.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (33:00.942)

Okay.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (33:04.721)

Like chat GPT could not figure out how to make a new image. So it used the same image, but just made it below the. All right, so obviously not real because I don't think anybody would want to wear baloney on their chest like that. Furthermore, to add to that fact, it would also smell horrendous. Can you imagine baloney in the sun for like eight to 12 hours as they're trying to go around saving people? I cannot and I don't want to.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (33:13.752)

You

Okay, not real. Okay.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (33:31.246)

Mm.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (33:34.936)

So yeah, not real. And secondly, I'm guessing I'm guessing her secret her secret power her superpower is She can create perfectly sliced cuts of bologna. My god, okay, okay

Joshua “Already Behind You” (33:35.126)

Okay. Okay. Not real.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (33:42.594)

Mm-hmm.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (33:48.322)

You are close, you are close, but actually, actually her superpower is she will poison anyone who tries to take a bite out of her.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (33:59.964)

Stupid.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (34:02.872)

Try to take a little bite of bologna, babe.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (34:03.186)

Can I ask how? How does she poison them?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (34:08.514)

when you go to take a bite out of her. you put your mouth on baloney babe, she will poison you. So whatever you do, don't ever put your mouth on a baloney babe.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (34:18.524)

Well, eating her out is out of the question.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (34:23.286)

Hey, hey, we still got more superheroes. Okay, we're not quite done yet Quite done. Okay ready for the next one Sean. Have you ever heard of? Captain Cucumber

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (34:27.16)

shit. Alright, gimme it. Let's do another one.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (34:37.97)

Captain Cucumber, no, but I kind of like his vibe. Captain Cucumber is exactly as the name states. He is a cucumber with hands and legs with another Superman logo in his chest, but it's a Q, a Q for cucumber. It's a C for cucumber, which also looks like it's surrounded by baloney and he's holding up a cucumber slice. So there's that. Also, he's, all these characters have masks. Well, this guy has a mask on.

And then the baloney babe had a mask on. Did dumpster dumpster Dave did fucking your first guy have a mask? Toast the boy. Yeah, did he have a mask on? OK, so it's just these two. OK, first of all, is he real? Yes, because I want him to be real. And second of all, I think his superpower is he has the ability to make pickles from his anus.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (35:14.414)

Toaster boy? No. No. Toaster boy did not have a mask. I, no. He just had toaster on his head.

Okay.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (35:32.524)

Hmm, that's actually pretty close. But actually, I mean, you're close. You're close. I mean, you'll just have to hear it to know how close it actually is. So so Captain Cucumbers, his special power, his special power is his ability to charm any living person with his juices.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (35:35.378)

What?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (35:43.44)

Alright, tell me.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (35:55.516)

Hehehehehe

Hey, I got to ask real quick. I got to ask, you know, I just want to put this on record. Does Captain Cucumber use his juices to make the pickles? Is there is there a special sauce that Captain Cucumber uses to really make the pickles? know? Can we get can we get Captain Cucumber on the show so we can ask him these questions, please?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (36:13.326)

I don't know. I mean I know there's a lot of seeds. Yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (36:23.436)

could I mean I mean Captain Cucumber has never charmed me so he's gonna have to know charm somebody else with his juices there

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (36:28.594)

Listen.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you've never listened to us before, sorry, but a few early on, we had a guest on his name was Big Frank. Big Frank is amazing. Joshua, I'm going to go and ask Big Frank. Maybe I'll get an answer next week or the week after if we can find Captain Cucumber because Big Frank knows a lot of people and Big Frank might be able to help us. So we'll see if we can find this man.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (36:56.76)

Okay, so the jury's still out, huh? Okay, so not real, but you want him to be real. Not real.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (36:59.826)

Did you restill that? Yeah, not real. Well, I said he's real because he's real in my heart. But yeah, obviously he's not real.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (37:06.03)

Okay. Not real. Bummer, man. I really wanted to be captain. I really wanted Captain Cucumber to be real. Okay, so your... What was this number for? Your fourth hero who is Quantum Pigeon.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (37:23.794)

Quantum Pigeon, this is pretty cool looking. like Quantum Pigeon. Okay, Quantum Pigeon is a pigeon with a cape and another Superman logo on his chest. This time with a Q for Quantum, I'm assuming. But he's pretty cool. What is, okay, is he real? Sure, pigeons are real. So yeah, I'll go ahead and say yeah, he's real. And his superpower, I'm assuming, it looks like from the image.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (37:41.55)

Okay, okay

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (37:51.772)

That is, superpower is the ability to fly through different dimensions. So close.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (37:57.487)

It's actually the ability to exist in multiple locations at once and can peck through dimensions. So, pecks through dimensions. Quantum pigeon.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (38:03.634)

Okay, I like that. Quantum pigeon. Holy shit. Okay, I dig him. I dig quantum pigeon. I'm fucking with that. Cool.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (38:14.05)

There you go. Yeah. So if you have not heard of any of those, it doesn't surprise me because none of them are fucking real, but they were sure fun to fucking make. There you go, everybody.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (38:22.448)

None of them are real. Yeah. That was fun, buddy. That was almost as fun as this next thing that we're about to do called an AI track. Joshua, let's get the AI song for the week here. I'm still sticking with my spooky vibes and Halloween themes. Let me share my screen with you guys watching. And for those of you listening, you know the deal here. Just keep on listening and enjoy. Joshua, this song is called Halloween Blues and...

It's... know man, I like it. I enjoy it. I enjoy all these songs. So here you go buddy. 3, 2, 1, hit it!

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (41:17.362)

Alright, Joshua, there you go. There's your AI song for the week, Halloween Blues, buddy. And I don't know if you noticed, but there is a duet happening with these last few songs. And we're using the same two artists in air quotes for them. And that's going to be kind of like the thing going on throughout this story with Maple Street and as well as with the audio from this, these next set of tracks all the way to Halloween.

because they all tell a story and I just want people to notice on that if they haven't already. So there's that.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (41:52.431)

So right now we're like, we're zoomed in and every episode we're just going to continue to zoom further out to the big picture.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (41:58.072)

Exactly, exactly. we're like, yeah, we're in like a tight shot right now. We're in a tight shot and every episode we're expanding out just a little bit more to get the whole picture, you know.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (42:06.594)

Hmm. Yeah, this is fun. I actually like story lines that go that way. They kind of just give you a little bit of a time. I like that. That's fun. I feel like you really dove into your creative genius on that one. That was nice. I, yeah, man, I just love everything we do on here and that fucking song was just another good one. And I know what would you say we're running out of space on,

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (42:12.028)

That's good. A little trickle effect, you know, trickle effect. But how'd you feel about that song? Did you like it?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (42:24.626)

See then.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (42:30.108)

Yeah.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (44:02.598)

I want to see you as Toaster Boy. That'd be pretty funny.

If you find yourself cornered and you got 1,000 scorpions coming your fucking way, do you think they're a true villain or they're just doing what they gotta do to break you down and just live in nature? Are they really a villain? I'm saying.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (44:36.434)

Okay, sure. All right.

Okay, let's let's just say because scorpions according to chat here they kill around 3 000 people per year. Let's just say you're one of the 3 000 people that got cornered by one of these ads, you know, like As like a billion people on the planet now.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (45:37.596)

Well, shit, I guess if I was threatening it, sure. Yeah. But if it's an asshole and it just like stabbed me because I walked past it and I didn't notice that's fucked up. That's why that's true villain status. You know, that's like, yeah, I'm going to scorpion true villain. Yeah. If that's the case, then yes, true villain. Asshole all the way. Yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (45:49.4)

True villain. So you're going scorpion, true villain?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (45:56.215)

asshole all the way. Okay got it. This next one on the list here number two actually is on one of our t-shirts so I'm guessing that maybe you don't find this so villainous if that's even a word. How about sharks? Do you think they're true villains of the sea or do think they're just doing what they gotta do?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (46:04.69)

no.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (46:14.866)

Hmm.

I think sharks are just doing what they're doing like honestly I think I think jaws really played a part in like the the psyche of like Culture, you know the zeitgeist I guess what it's called But I think ever since that movie people had a big fear of sharks and I think sharks are just doing their thing They're just out there swimming eating, you know Cuz I don't think sharks think of humans as meals, you know, like they might they might get confused

Joshua “Already Behind You” (46:46.957)

Hmm.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (46:47.11)

but I don't think they're actually going after us like we're fucking food, you know?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (46:50.85)

So how many deaths do you think? Last year in 2024 there were total fatalities from sharks.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (46:56.816)

with sharks. I'm going to say 350.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (47:01.902)

350, really?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (47:03.782)

Yeah, let's say 350.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (47:05.848)

Fuck man, there was actually only seven.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (47:08.346)

Now there you go, proves my point. sharks ain't looking for a meal from us, you know. They're more like the sea pups of the ocean world, you know. Yeah, they are, dude. Hell yeah.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (47:11.443)

So not a villain.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (47:16.662)

The sea pups and they're old as fuck. They're like millions of years old and those things are smart and they're old All right, the final I I'm just gonna go out there and I'm gonna say this asshole is a true villain But I want to get your take on this one Sean. Do you think mosquitoes are villains of nature?

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (47:31.258)

Damn spoilers.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (47:38.226)

Ooh, yeah, yeah, I'm with you on this one. Yeah, mosquitoes are definitely villains of nature. Do you get stung by mosquitoes a lot, Joshua?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (47:46.174)

Do I do and I don't know if this is a myth and my fingers I've said this before don't type fast enough to ask But I'm an I believe I'm positive negative blood type Yeah, so They I you know myth busters wherever the fuck I think they I think they find something juicy about me and they just like to they find me They just suck me off whenever they can

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (47:47.26)

Do you? Okay.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (47:55.143)

your blood type, so your rare blood. Wow. Okay, pure bread.

Yeah, you like have sweet blood or Yeah, nice. Yeah, I think I have the opposite of that blood because I really don't get bit by mosquitoes a lot. You know, I probably have like one of the most common blood types. I don't know my blood type, to be honest with you. So there's that. But I don't get bit by mosquitoes a lot. But when I do, yeah, it's aggressively annoying. So.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (48:25.503)

That almost sounded like a Dos Equis commercial, but for mosquitoes.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (48:29.618)

I don't always get bit by mosquitoes, but when I do it's aggressively annoying. Dos Equis. Die from mosquitoes? What the fuck? Three. I'm gonna say three. Yeah. Well, I mean, I know mosquitoes carry like malaria or West Nile. I guess that could kill you. But is that really the mosquitoes fault at that point? You know, cause the mosquito.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (48:36.237)

Would you like to guess how many people how many yeah responsible yeah from mosquitoes Yeah three really you're talking about a blood sucking

Joshua “Already Behind You” (48:53.355)

Yeah.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (48:59.1)

The mosquito didn't know it had that disease, you know, it's not like a shark biting your leg off. You know, it's like the mosquitoes just doing its job. You know, so I guess in turn.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (49:07.295)

Or does it? Maybe, maybe that's the program. Literally, it's a virus that they're injecting into you. Maybe it's part of the program.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (49:14.748)

Maybe, maybe, but I'm going to say I'm going to stick by my stands. Three.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (49:19.585)

Three people. Actually mosquitoes are responsible for over 1 million deaths each year globally.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (49:27.634)

Globally, okay, that's different globally is different. I want to know about America. All right, we're in big America. I need American numbers. All right, big America big American numbers. That's all I want

Joshua “Already Behind You” (49:30.973)

I mean, what'd think I was talking about? America?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (49:39.881)

Okay, I don't have what America is if anybody wants to post that in the chat Okay, all right, maybe i'm probably right fuck I have no idea but I did not ask that question but yeah, I I think them blood sucking assholes are a true villain. Yes me

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (49:41.476)

Exactly three. You're welcome America three mosquitoes kill you every year

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (49:56.924)

And I guess you would think that because you get sucked off by them on multiple occasions. So it makes sense, but I'm still with you.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (50:03.957)

Yeah, and yeah, and when they suck, they like, they really suck it out of me. I mean, I end up with like this fat, like lump, like I got punched or something like that. Like it swells. they, there's something about me, man, I don't know. But you know what? If I saw me on the street, I'd suck me off too. So there you go.

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (50:24.114)

All right, let's move on from that. Joshua, let's start landing this plane. We're already crashing. The plane's already in a deep, deep nose dive.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (52:25.003)

I saw these on Amazon If this is your first time watching episode 99, we're back into these silly fortunes I know they're silly. I know they're but we're going with the sassy dozen and

Joshua “Already Behind You” (54:58.829)

So you gotta get quiet.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (55:07.021)

No, was it no wasn't sass at all that's something yeah, I got a poll that's that's why I have to apologize sometimes before I read these things cuz they can be pretty

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (55:09.02)

Alright, weird. Weird one. Not really a fortune. Not really sassy either. So... Alright, so far...

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (55:19.622)

I think I'm gonna make a running tally real quick here. So far we are one for the sass and then we are one for the, what's another word for not sassy? One for, I guess, just not sass. Sure, why not?

Joshua “Already Behind You” (55:25.015)

Mm-hmm.

Joshua “Already Behind You” (55:37.996)

I right not sass What is a not sass word? And I almost feel like I because I've been saving all these everybody every time we do one of they just don't go in the garbage I have a jar full of them and maybe for episode 100 I should just read off a couple at the very end of the episode or just or maybe pepper them in somewhere in the in the next episode just to Get your take on him. See if it's worth it even just throwing my money away because I think this thing was like 20 bucks plus shipping

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (55:43.482)

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (56:05.03)

Sean “Damp Footsteps” (56:22.674)
