I have to acknowledge the fact that you're still using this coffee cup that you got from the Nintendo store.
That's correct.
And I look inside it expecting to see regular coffee, and I'm surprised to see that you have ice cubes in this thing. You can ice coffee out of a regular coffee mug.
Well, as you know, in our hit games cast where we went through the Nintendo store and talked about it and did all this stuff, and we went through all our purchases, I said, I bought this coffee cup because it's cute and I like it. Obviously, I like the roost. I like Animal Crossing. You know that. And then I was going to have it be my coffee cup. But then it's just getting hotter now.
You know what I mean? It's summertime. And so I like a good iced coffee, especially I did 20 minutes, 21 technically, in the car today for Gregway. And so I got it parched. So I want the liquids in me quicker. So I cool it down. So, yeah, I've been putting the iced coffee in there.
I've been putting the ice cubes in a coffee cup. I hear you.
Again, I'm just committed to it. I'd be using a glass. And I got the Pedro glass for my water now. I got my setup here. Where does Pedro Glass come from? Mill Valley Pasta. For some reason, he had them. So I was like, when I put them on Instagram story, I'm like, you've saved me one. And it sat in the shop for weeks until I actually made it there. But I got there and I have a Pedro Pascal cup.

Chapter 2: What is the significance of the James Bond game reveal?
Because can I tell you? I'm going to tell you. I'm going to tell you. Fuck, that could be Josh Beck. I have a prediction. It's one of my SGF predictions. We're doing the SGF predictions right after this.
How many of us do you think had a James Bond prediction? Because I definitely had a James Bond prediction.
I didn't until today. I'm calling the shot here, okay? But I don't want this one to be stolen from me, all right? It's going to be Rahul.
I was thinking the same thing.
I think it's Rahul, and I think they reveal that it's not SGF.
Does this look like Rahul?
I mean, who knows how much the light's playing with it? You know what I mean? A lot of people want to look at this and see a white guy. Let's just call it down the line. You know what I mean? But I think the golden light can play off of skin differently. And I think, again, that'd be a good swerve. See, Vince Patel, isn't this dude white? I don't know. Is it? It's a silhouette, Vince.
Do you want to fucking... You know, Vitz over here sees a silhouette ready to go to the cops and say he knows who the man is.
For me, that's like another thing with the silhouette, right? Even if it's an actor, even if it's not like a recognizable actor that we know that's being revealed for the role, I think even if it is just a...

Chapter 3: Who might be the lead actor in 007 First Light?
James Bond that we haven't seen before whether it is somebody with different skin color or somebody that just looks different than you know Daniel Craig or like the Pierce Brosnan or like the James Bonds that we know I think that enough is exciting enough to like you know keep the character as part of the reveal have the character like have the character be a part of the oh man
And the official press release they gave said, and I mean, this isn't giving much, right? But it's like the official press release I got today from 47, the reveal will give a world premiere look at 007 First Light featuring never-before-seen footage to start a new era for James Bond in video games. I love that. Is new era doing a lot of heavy lifting in my mind? Of course.
It could just be a fucking white guy. It would still be a new era of 007 video games. But I like the idea that I was sitting there saying like, you know what? We're going to do the thing that the movies aren't.
movies every wants them to shake up the not everybody a lot of people want to shake up on you know maybe do a gender swap maybe do a race swap do whatever if they're not going to be a part of it maybe we could do that and stand out that way and then also definitively set ourselves away from nobody's going to glance at rahul on the cover and be like oh is this tied into the movie or something like that you know or hear me out okay josh peck
I think... You're really hot with the Josh Peck button.
I'm glad we built it. For the words new era, I love those words so much for describing this because I think that comes with a lot of things. It's what you're talking about as far as being able to define what IO Interactive's James Bond is. But I think with that, for me, era implies...
franchise that implies series that implies 100% it does we just don't we don't want to be one and done with this we want to like carry the flag for what this version of James Bond is going to be for the foreseeable future for us and I think with that When you think of previous eras of James Bond, they've always, I won't say always, but most of the time have been connected to a movie actor.
They've either been you're playing as the Pierce Brosnan one or you're playing as the Daniel Craig one, right? I think there have been rare times where you're playing as an original James Bond. I think there was like a wee one where you're going through the different eras.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Wasn't there something there? I'm not a James Bond guy.
