Good evening, gentle listeners or watchers, and welcome to Destructible, this episode. Melodramatic Mark kicks off with coming up behinds, then initiates a terminal hot potato duel. Bullshitting Bob pounds hard, upgrades James' attire, advocates golden pussy, but misses iron lung. Go watch it.

From podcast longevity to Martha Wash. It's time for Mark's Big Dangerous Word Game. Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show.

54.503 - 77.91 Wade

Hello and welcome to Distractible, the podcast that is definitely not going to end anytime soon. So don't you worry about that. We're going to be here for a while. Don't listen to the rumors. We are here for you for as long as we need to. And you know who else is probably going to be here, or at least one of them, Bob and Wade. I'm one of them.

0

78.471 - 96.513 Wade

There was a lot of things said there that were slightly concerning. Well, it was concerning. He said don't listen to the rumors. Yeah, don't listen to the rumors. If it makes you feel any better, I'll give you both some concerned points. Not that that makes them valid or anything. Just because I'm assigning a point to it doesn't mean that your concerns are validated. I'm just doing this because.

0

96.573 - 122.56 Wade

That's a good reason to do stuff. Anyway, this is the game show. And yes, it's a game show because points and rewards are offered during every single one of these episodes, or at least we'll say that to get our ratings up. And I'm your host, Markiplier, multi-hyphenated, talented, weekend losing director, along with an Emmy losing director. Whatever I do, I'll always get second place.

123.14 - 128.385 Wade

There's no question about that. Oh, he's coming up right behind the first place finisher.

128.365 - 132.424 Bob

That's a really good place. The best pace, even, depending on how you think about it.

132.685 - 146.782 Wade

Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. First is the worst, second is the best, I've heard. These are all good sayings, and Wade, you just earned yourself a point. Thank you. But I heard it too. I'll tell you why later.

147.243 - 161.88 Wade

But anyway, what we do here first, as we've done every episode since the dawn of time, is talk about our lives, because we're very conceited like that, and we think that our lives are interesting enough to share with you, and you want to listen to it. So that's exactly what we're going to do.

Chapter 2: How do the hosts share their personal stories?

162.021 - 162.681 Wade

Who wants to go first?

0
0

163.663 - 166.506 Wade

I actually heard that at the same time. Who said that first?

0
0

168.51 - 171.516 Wade

That time Bob was slightly ahead. I'll give you one more chance. One more chance.

171.957 - 172.518 Bob

Me.

172.538 - 178.27 Wade

Me. So slow. Bob got there. I was trying to stick it up.

Chapter 3: What is Mark's Big Dangerous Word Game about?

178.751 - 187.228 Wade

You get the first point there. All right. Okay. I wanted to tie it up to be tied with Bob. You could never tie with me. Bob, what's your life?

0

187.377 - 207.943 Bob

My life is pretty good. The walk-in 365 miles is going well. Still on pace through today, and I think I'm ahead a couple miles. It's good. It's not getting as easier as I would have hoped, but also I'm going to start turning up the speed a little bit. So it's going to get harder, but then it's going to get way easier, really fast, because that's how exercising works.

0

208.404 - 211.227 Bob

I try hard like twice, and then it's all easy.

0

211.808 - 236.47 Wade

So I'm looking forward to it. I think that is actually how it works. yes okay soundboard wade yes i thought i had another thing and we pass it to wade ah dang it almost out of there almost at it welcome welcome welcome back everyone not gonna lie after one of the recent episodes we did bob was talking about some good old sausage gravy i have convinced my family that we are getting together

0

236.585 - 252.737 Wade

And they are making me some gravy. And I can't wait. That's great, man. Great. I remember you talking about some sausage gravy. Yeah, Bob talked about it. And I was like, you guys won't believe what Bob brought up on the podcast. Some good old fashioned sausage gravy. You guys should totally make some and invite me over.

252.717 - 254.819 Bob

You're not interested in making it?

Chapter 4: How do the hosts handle the game's challenges?

255.22 - 257.642 Bob

In learning about that or participating in that?

0

257.662 - 276.783 Wade

Oh, no, no, no. Nothing's quite like having some good old mom-made food. It's fun to learn new skills. It's pretty fun. It's pretty fulfilling, you know? Oh, you're right. No interest whatsoever. Okay, man. No, we should. We could. But no. It was actually a coincidence. I'm totally lying. Damn it. Does it make it a lie point? Wait, what? My family was just out of the blue.

0

276.803 - 295.026 Wade

It was like, hey, we're going to make this. And they invited us over. Oh, okay. So there is gravy. There is gravy. Just I didn't initiate it. I was just trying to, you know, make it look like I did it. The pretext is a lie, but the story is true. The story's true. Just like all stories. There's a little bit of fluff, a little bit of filler, and a lot of gravy. Like all stories.

0

295.386 - 300.493 Bob

My stories are all 100% true. Don't manifest that for me.

0

300.473 - 313.11 Wade

I've never exaggerated anything ever in a story I've told on this podcast. Listen, Bob. What? Is that a lie? It's clearly not a lie, because I said it was true. Is that a lie?

313.13 - 319.418 Bob

No. Ask me again. Is that a lie? Is that a lie? Yes.

320.459 - 337.673 Wade

Lie point. I continue to worry about my memory. That's the other thing. My memory is so bad. Apparently, I was talking to Pat, Intuin, and JP recently who I record videos with on the YouTube channel. They were like, oh man, this thing, remember this big story we talked about like two weeks ago? Well, there's an update.

Chapter 5: What strategies do the hosts use during the game?

337.693 - 355.452 Wade

I was like, what big story? Was I there? And like, they kept dropping hints as to what it was about. And I was like, zero recollection. None. Are you guys sure I was there? And then they sent like a long paragraph of retelling the whole story. I was like, oh yeah, that. It took retelling the entire story for me to remember them telling me the story.

0

355.472 - 358.375 Bob

I don't know if that's remembering. I think that's just learning.

0

358.507 - 375.375 Wade

But after I learned it, I remembered learning it before. It was like deja vu. Wait, so it was a story that you've heard before, but they didn't know that you heard it before? No, they knew I had. I had forgotten that I heard. It wasn't even a story. It was like a real life event that was like a big deal. Like, yeah, remember this thing? And I was like, nope. He doesn't remember.

0

375.395 - 392.883 Wade

I actually don't fully remember. No, you can't. That's the bit. The bit can't be real. No, that's the thing, though. It kind of is. It was one of those stories about not picking up the hints that someone was into you. Is that a thing you deal with on a regular basis? I guess you wouldn't know, would you? I hope my wife's into me.

0

393.343 - 413.23 Wade

I'll have to record some of our interactions and see if someone, some expert can help me figure it out. You should covertly record some of your interactions and then post them anonymously online. Then you can see what she really thinks. And nothing else bad will come from that. Wade, I'm going to tell you this right now because this is part of it. I've written a conditional thing down.

413.29 - 436.46 Wade

At the end of this episode, I'm going to ask you if you remember even the thing that this point is related to. You don't have to remember the story. He's not going to. But if you remember, I'll give you this point. Okay. I got this in the bag. It's weird that like, I can recollect an epic rap battle of history, full lyrics. I can picture the whole thing that I've not heard in like five years.

436.781 - 446.935 Wade

And then something important from like a week ago gets brought up and I'm like, I have no idea who that is. It's like, that's your relative. Oh, have I ever met them? Only your whole life.

447.91 - 475.099 Wade

I'm exaggerating slightly but like there have been moments where like I don't know if I'm just that spacey or if my hard drives are so full of crap that like important stuff's getting deleted but I think that's how it works the memory issues have been a little scary not gonna lie they've been a little scary simulations breaking down we gotta be careful boys alright I won't but you know what can you do unplug me so I can be the bald guy that wants the steak wait no you're already in can we talk about that last time

Chapter 6: How do the hosts react to unexpected game twists?

475.467 - 495.152 Wade

I remember something! That's a callback, so I'm gonna remember that you have one callback. But, you're already in the simulation, and you are the bald guy. And you do love steak. Can I have a steak? Yeah, actually, you could order a steak right now. You could go to the grocery store and get a steak. Aw, nothing sounds good. But it's tender, juicy.

0

496.493 - 504.6 Wade

I know it's not the Lord of the Rings scene with the tomatoes, but I'm reimagining that scene where he's like, I know the steak is tender, juicy.

0

505.561 - 515.05 Bob

That scene weasels its way into so many things in my life. There's anything even remotely similar to that guy eating. My brain is like, you remember that scene?

0

515.49 - 518.993 Wade

Tomatoes. Yeah, yeah. Tomatoes, yep.

0

519.013 - 525.426 Bob

Tomatoes. Boil them, mash them, stick them in a paschetti. Anything else?

527.147 - 548.97 Wade

I didn't mean to like, I was trying to think of a way to like, alright, I get what you were going for. And it was so funny, we're just gonna skip right past it. I knew that they were gonna add post laughter, like crowd laughter, so I was just waiting for that to die down. That's what that was. Do we do that? Do we have laugh tracks? Oh yeah, the editors prop us up a lot. Oh yeah, oh yeah.

549.111 - 570.375 Wade

Distractible was filmed in front of a live studio audience. Well, that's a lie. I could tell lies. No, I'm not going to do that. If I said a lot all because that's just a joke. If jokes are mostly untrue, if I was like has to be an actual lie, a lie with intention, maybe. Well, I mean, I'm just going to say that right now, but we can codify it in the Constitution later.

570.355 - 591.753 Wade

So if you misremember something, are you lying? Even if it's unintentional? Or are you joking? I don't think that misremembering can count as lying. A lie has to have intent, right? Yeah. A lie means that you know it's not true. Yeah. You're acknowledging truth. You're just choosing to say the opposite. So if you're delusional, your delusions aren't lies. You're bullshitting.

592.134 - 597.999 Wade

Even if they're untrue. Yeah. That makes me want to read some philosophy papers. Bob, you didn't get much time for small talk.

Chapter 7: What are the funniest moments from the game?

598.019 - 599.2 Wade

Do you have anything else before we move on?

0
0

599.6 - 608.31 Wade

I really actually don't have a whole lot new. Did I have, I told you guys, James is wearing big boy underpants these days. Oh, that's cool. That's huge.

0

608.527 - 612.231 Bob

He's like, he did it. He's potty trained. He's like a whole person now.

0

612.571 - 628.168 Wade

Not that he wasn't a whole person before, but him standing up and just being like, I gotta pee is hilarious because it just is. I don't know. Is his grip strength growing exponentially with his size? Kind of. He's terrifyingly strong.

628.449 - 636.92 Bob

He could probably beat me up if he caught me off guard. If he got the first shot in and he caught me at the right moment, he could probably take me already.

637.321 - 641.768 Wade

Just a little shoryuken right to your nuts. Just shoryuken. How tall is he now?

642.469 - 645.734 Bob

Somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 inches. How many feet is that?

646.135 - 663.741 Wade

Three, three and a half. Three and a half feet. Something like that. Careful, Mark. He's catching up. Come on, man! Can I get a point for that? I'm gonna put on the wheel, uh, preemptively, mentioned Mark's height the most.

Chapter 8: What reflections do the hosts share after the game ends?

775.364 - 795.979 Wade

We're playing a mixture of hot potato with a grenade and sentence get longer and it's funny with a grenade with a grenade. Okay. I have to explain this fully so that we all are on the same page. I have my random timer. It's set from 30 seconds to 90 seconds. So it'll average out to be about a minute, but it could be anywhere in there.

0

796.38 - 817.632 Wade

When the timer goes off, you guys are taking turns doing the game. When the timer goes off, whoever's holding the grenade, boom, dead, gone, obliterated, destroyed. The other person gets a point. Easy, simple. I feel like we did the opposite and it worked out great for Bob and I have a bad feeling somehow this is also going to work out great for Bob and I'm already mad about it.

0

817.652 - 822.918 Bob

No, if we did the opposite and I did well, we're doing the opposite of that. Now you'll do well because that's the opposite.

0

823.159 - 840.24 Wade

You'd think that logically, but somehow. I've got some extra structure here for this, right? So it's not going to be completely open-ended or it is going to be open-ended, but it starts with a base, right? So for example, my favorite color is...

0

840.22 - 865.232 Wade

Blank that'll be whoever's going first their prompt and they have one word for the first sentence now where it gets complicated is the other person then has to make that two words and you could just string it together like Blue baby blue, but when you get to three you have to keep going and the sentence still has to be a complete sentence with non gibberish words and no repeating words and

865.212 - 877.075 Wade

You can't do very, very blue. You can't do baby, baby blue. Do we have to keep what we're given and add to it? No, no, no. You can do whatever you want. You just need to keep adding another total work.

877.095 - 877.476 Bob

Yes, yes.

877.496 - 895.827 Wade

So you get the same beginning of it. This way you don't have to continue because it wouldn't make any sense if they said blue. So we only add to the end. Yeah. Yeah. You have to add to the end where the blank is. You both are adding at the same spot and you're both starting over. So when I get to let's say Bob's going first, I would say my favorite color is and then you would say the rest.

896.127 - 907.504 Wade

And then I would go to Wade and he would say my favorite color is or it could do it differently. And you start the sentence. You guys say it and otherwise not. Whatever feels out. I'll do it first just for the first round. We'll feel that.
