Chapter 1: What humorous antics kick off Mark's One Man Show?
Good evening, gentle listeners or watchers, and welcome to Distractible, this episode. Belittling Bob cleans his micro-pond, while Whacked Wade prowls Carl and Hurts from playing with his balls. Then, they double-teamed a ban. Multi-talented marks. salaciously slays buyers, notes nerfs, moves mice, power paints like Picasso, and talks backwards like a titan.
From facing foils to Wade's terrible translations. Yes, it's time for Mark's One Man Show, part two. Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show. Hello. Bob, you come in. Okay, yeah. Hey, welcome back to another episode of Distractible. I'm your co-host for today's episode. And I'm your co-host for today's episode.
If you missed the last one, you should go back and watch because it was a real ripper and it ended with Mark getting the winner's wheel and landing on the one man show. And therefore Bob and I had to do a lot of work.
Hours spent by candlelight, moonlight, and a little bit of other light source.
Mark's least favorite kind of light. Moonlight. Oh, God, not moonlight. Man, this whole Artemis thing was happening, and I just had to turn off my TV, unplug my cable. Internet houses, like, I can't deal with this moon nonsense. Oh, yeah, and Mark's the competitor. Introducing us feels so stilted now.
Like, I get that there might be people listening to this, like, they're probably new listeners, blah, blah, blah. But there's, like, over 400 of these things. If you want an introduction that makes sense, go watch one of the early ones. We really had a whole script as a whole thing.
anymore what's the point you know especially today usually there's one judge and there's two guys and they're competing out the window today is mark's one man show it's all about mark it's yay yippee so ready it's going to be a a celebration of things that mark enjoys and that mark is very good at
See, I know both of you, when you're judging, you put your thumb on the scale because you're like, it's a little too close to a tie here. Let me just... No, me, I face it down. I face it down. I've had a number of winner wheel spins lately. What do you mean? That's true. That's true. But for my story, I'm going to keep saying this. Oh, no. Craft the narrative. Yeah, sorry, sorry.
Craft the narrative. Yeah, because there's no other people here, so I could lose as many points as I want. So I'm free for the first time in our entire podcast history.

Chapter 2: What challenges did Mark face in preparing for the show?
That other guy. Not a good start. Not a good start. Yeah. James, is that you? What do you think he got it? It's a good city. It looks really nice. Smells great. Tastes wonderful. There's really no comparison. No comparison to the Cincy, as they call it in the Cincy. The Cincy. That's true. That's catching on. Copyrighted phrase. You owe Mr. Cincinnati $5.
Is that like the red guy with the baseball head? No, that's Mr. Redlegs. Mr. Cincinnati is our glorious founder and leader. And he's the one who invented the catchphrase, the Cincy.
But he also has a baseball for a head, but that's a coincidence.
It's a tragic childhood accident, not a fun baseball mascot. Don't get them mixed up. But other than that, you know, besides the things that you guys talked about, it's been nothing but Slay the Spire 2. That has been my life. It's been so nice. Everybody already knows this because Slay the Spire 2 was like the number one most played games. It's apparently running on. I just opened Steam.
It's running right now. Are you accidentally playing it somewhere? Oh, I think it might be open on my laptop or something like that. It's very, very fun. I'm not going to make any videos about it because I don't need it, but it's just so stupendously good. So simple, but complex. It's really, really nice. However, there are some... This happens with games like this.
Whenever there's an update and they're like, we're nerfing this and we're going to balance this, gamers just go like... Ooh, low review. Would they nerf? Tell me. I don't know. They've nerfed a bunch of things because what they don't want is for builds to easily just go into infinity. And I mean, I know it's possible.
I've never done it, but it's like, you know, some people, instead of playing for, you know, fun and a casual thing, you know, some people need like I gotta be the most powerful ever in history forever. My dad, when he was working on doing layouts of computer books for yada yada, for Wiley or whatever, Wiley and Coyote Books Company. Acme?
Yeah, he would take a break by playing this game called Mice Men. And let me tell you, there's no progression.

Chapter 3: How did the hosts engage in playful banter during the episode?
There's no roguelike progression.
light or anything of the type it's just you have mice on the side you pull them up and down and they walk and if they jump on the step on the other one's head kill that mouse and then you win by getting the most people to the other side and it's it's he it never changed didn't get it well i guess it didn't get patches but you know he played that and he was happy he had to go uphill with those mice both ways these ungratefuls you know spoiled spoil is what i say
I was expecting the mice soapbox today, but I didn't expect it to be so good.
Ah, man, I just Googled the Mice Men game and wow, my memory was perfect because I used to watch my dad play that all the time. And just the way the mice turn and look at you when they're like, We're trusting you with our lives here. It's a DOS game. I forget. I don't even know. When was it first made? Oh, wait. I know this. Yeah, this is like unlocking a memory. Oh, 95. Okay. I also played this.
I did not understand it because I was a child, but I was like, wow, look at that.
They walk around.
Yep. No, I could not win at this.
Don't they eat cheese? Wow.
I'm going to find the IP for this. I'm going to make the Mice Men movie. Make a billion dollars.

Chapter 4: What game did the hosts play and how did it unfold?
Yeah backlog.
That's it.
You guys have got me though where i've been playing slay the spire 2 and Dude, I have been plowing car. Oh, that sounds weird out that way
dude you just been giving it to carl whoa i've just been giving it to carl oh my god i'm like half three quarters of the way through bedlam bride now i'm just i'm tearing through gets crazy huh i feel like i say that every time you give us a carl dungeon crawler update
Yeah, like you guys, even though with you guys telling me this, I'm like, okay, they're saying that, but like, it has to have some chill. There can be some amount of chill.
Are you out of the first phase yet? Are you into the second phase? I just got to where it officially says part two, I think. Dude, it gets so crazy. No. So much crazier. You have no idea. Part one was crazy. How could it get more crazy? You have no idea. Oh. You have no idea.
I don't. Every time I think I do, the wrenches, they come flying. It's like patches from dodgeballs throwing wrenches at me nonstop and I can't dodge them.
They're all it. I know, right? Oh, I have been battling our pool. We have a pool in the backyard. I like the way you say that.
pool I have been trying to get it balanced so that it's not toxic and I think the last people who lived here didn't take very good care of it is what I've been running up against because I thought I think I did research and I thought about doing it right and it just every time I do something it like makes it worse but I think I'm on I think I'm on the right track I think I had too many dissolved solids I'm racing to get the pool open because every day I'm out there like pouring crap in the pool and cleaning it and James is just looking out the window like

Chapter 5: What insights were shared about gaming updates and their impact?
It's all the fractions. Yeah, two-eighth. You don't want four. It's two-eighth.
I know you could technically simplify, but it's eight boxes, so you still have to say the two.
It's a lot of fractions in movies, Mark. You got to catch up. My dad was filming under the car, and he was like, I said one-third, not one-sixth. He throws a tripod at my head. How do you think I'm going to capture this macro shot? Oh, good times. Classic. That being said, do you think it's time, Bob? Time for the one man show to begin. One man show time.
You guys are like full frame in your cameras and I'm always like way down here and I look so tiny. You can aim it. No, you can't. There's nothing you can do about it.
I forgot. Waste cameras built into the wall. It doesn't aim. I forgot.
You know, the one thing I never thought about, I was like, no, it's really mounted on the desk. I could move the monitor back, and then I could have more space to tilt it down.
Yeah, don't you have giant monitors? They're very big. If I'm thinking about it correctly, I'm pretty sure all of that stuff moves. We're a very not mobile household here. Maybe... Maybe I shouldn't do it right now. Yeah, I don't know if right now is the time to get into it. No, do it right now.
I forgot that all three of my monitors are now on one stand, and they're very big and heavy and a slight movement. How are they on one stand?
I found some custom third-party stand that's not meant to hold monitors this big, but I made it work.

Chapter 6: How did the discussion shift towards personal anecdotes and stories?
Or if not, then it's the order I'm deciding to do now. I'm going to flip a coin. Heads is tails. Nope. Nope.
Hang on. Hang on.
Heads is tails. Tails, I win. All right, here we go. Heads is Wade. Tails is me. It's a lady. We got the heads. Okay. So, Wade is gonna go first, and what's about to happen is that Wade and I are both about to send you an image. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we're not. Oh, no. That's the other thing. We're about to not send you shit. Yeah, don't do that.
We're about to describe to you an image and you're going to draw it.
We're going to send you an image. You draw it. Oh, God. Yeah. Functioning.
I'm a full blast here. That's all I got. And Wade gets to go first. And Wade has 30 seconds to work with you on this image. And then I'm going to have a timer. The timer is going to go off and it's going to be my turn. We're going to switch to working on my image and we're going to go back and forth.
You get a total of four minutes, but it's in 30 second chunks working with Wade than me, then Wade than me. Each of us does four mini sessions. Okay. The goal is to end up with two pictures that look exactly like what Wade and I have pulled up on our screens in front of us.
Oh, I know it'll be that way. I'm sure it will. I know it will. You're a great drawer. I believe in you. And Wade, I guess whenever you're ready, I'll just hit my timer and you just... And Mark, I assume you're ready. Yeah, I'm ready. Always. Whatever. Just tell me when to go, Bob. Just start. Just go. All right. So, Mark, quick overview.
We're going to have Santa standing in front of a white bed sheet background like he was filming a threatening video or something. But the background is kind of like a wrinkly white bed sheet.
