F**kface State Draft
Bonus · published 2023-07-29 · archive #192

[0:00:09] Geoff: Hello and welcome to another F**kface brand draft. That's right, it's your favorite piece of supplemental content, or maybe it's not. Either way, it does exist and it's happening right now. Today we're going to do Eric's idea. Eric wanted to do a draft of the 50 states, the 50 U.S. states. It's going to be interesting to get the perspective of Andrew and...
[0:00:34] Eric: Let's see, I knew as soon as we started, I knew it was going to be what, how, I talked to my wife about this, how is Andrew going to not draft the 50 states of the United States? It's a states draft, there was never any mention of the U.S. Pacific states. What I was hoping for was that we were going to see what I was hoping, Geoff, didn't I tell you this in the car?
[0:01:00] Geoff: I believe you did.
[0:01:01] Eric: Yeah, I said, what do you think Andrew's going to do? So, what I was hoping for is that we had a draft with a pool, where I would pick something, you would pick something, you'd be like, oh man, you picked this thing, oh, I picked that thing. Like...
[0:01:14] Geoff: A finite draft pool, you mean. Correct. What a novel concept.
[0:01:17] Eric: Uh-huh, and then, Geoff, and Geoff, what's happening now?
[0:01:21] Geoff: Now I think Andrew's opening it up to states of being, and emotional states, and all kinds of other things that include the word state.
[0:01:28] Andrew: Well, it has always been pitched as a state's draft. There was never any specific U.S. mention.
[0:01:34] Eric: See, this is, I told you, I told you, I told you, what exact, what was going to happen. Okay.
[0:01:40] Gavin: Yep. Hang on, let's see what Eric originally wrote. In the original text, states draft, we've talked state songs, think on it.
[0:01:49] Eric: Uh-huh. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Uh-huh. And then, is there more to the conversation?
[0:01:53] Gavin: Geoff says, I do like the idea where the pool isn't everything ever.
[0:01:56] Andrew: I just took that as a necessary dig. So I perceive that comment.
[0:02:01] Eric: I can do that as a... Uh-huh. As a rules. So, what we were hoping for was that it was just going to be states of the union, and...
[0:02:14] Andrew: Well, there's no union. It was just states, but okay. Uh-huh. I have my states ready, okay? And I'll put them up against any of your fancy states. See, this is what... Of course.
[0:02:23] Geoff: So the way this works is we do a snake draft. Why do we do a snake draft? You'd have to ask Andrew, but he won't give you a real answer. The way that works, and we're going to do... We do... In order of first, we do... Typically, we run with AgNeg, but for these drafts specifically, we go through a randomizer.org. Nick or Eric is going to randomize it a certain number of times. What's the number for this draft? Seven?
[0:02:49] Eric: Is it seven? Seven for me.
[0:02:51] Geoff: I'm fine with that. Seven okay with everybody? Let's do it at seven.
[0:02:54] Eric: Okay. Uh, I'm going to list from our last order. That's what our jumping off point will be. Uh, we're going to randomize this seven times. The first order without randomizing. This is the way they're input. Andrew, Jeff, Gavin, Eric, Nick. One randomize. Here it is. Nick, Jeff, Gavin, Andrew, Eric. Number two. Eric, Gavin, Jeff, Andrew, Nick. Egan. Great. Number three. Jeff, Gavin, Nick, Andrew, Eric. We've seen that one before. Eric, Andrew, Nick, Gavin, Jeff. Interesting. Ing. Here's five. Eric, Gavin, Jeff, Andrew, Nick. Egan again? Uh-huh. Here's six. Nick, Gavin, Jeff, Eric, Andrew. And number seven. This will be our draft order. Andrew. Oh, an egg! An egg!
[0:03:52] Unidentified: An egg! Oh, my God. We got an egg.
[0:03:55] Eric: I cannot believe it. Wow. It's truly easy.
[0:04:00] Geoff: I've won the draft three times in a row.
[0:04:02] Eric: Yeah.
[0:04:03] Geoff: Truly an unlucky number. Wow. Okay. Seven.
[0:04:05] Eric: Do you guys want me to share?
[0:04:08] Geoff: Yes.
[0:04:09] Eric: No, I don't know.
[0:04:10] Unidentified: What?
[0:04:11] Eric: And then you can put your own in, I guess. I don't have to share my screen anymore, but share the, there is the draft list. You should have it now.
[0:04:19] Andrew: I think it's good to have a visual reference so we don't, you know. Yeah, just in case.
[0:04:23] Eric: The states. Definitely. Okay. Well, originally this was supposed to be for just the 50 states of the union. As I went on to say, this will be great because we're going to end up picking 20 states and there will be 30 that aren't picked, making the 50, which are the states of the union. However, Andrew is going to pick like Nirvana or whatever. And that will be what we are doing here. So, Andrew, you can lead us off because you're the first pick in the face states draft.
[0:04:53] Andrew: Now, this is a really important pick. This is an important draft for me because I was the one that brought the draft table. I really like my performance in the last draft. I don't know if I like my performance overall, but I've learned some things. I've learned some things during this process. I think it's really important to have a, to have a winner's mentality. An empire state of mind, some might say. Are you padding for time right now? No, I'm just explaining my pick. What's wrong? I'm not allowed to explain my pick. We don't want you to go up and fucking say it.
[0:05:25] Geoff: Did you lose some paperwork on the desk or something and you're just trying to find it and so you're just vamping until you get there? No. No. Okay. I'm getting there. Listen, he said his pick.
[0:05:33] Andrew: I'm explaining the pick.
[0:05:34] Geoff: Okay.
[0:05:44] Eric: He keeps saying that specifically.
[0:05:46] Andrew: Yeah. This is so fucked. I'm drafting empire state of mind. It's a good perspective to have. What I've learned on these drafts is people love crack. I believe Jay-Z was in that world at one time. He's changed. He's elevated. He's now living his best life on a jet ski. If this is what an empire state of mind looks like, I want it. So I'm taking empire state of mind as the number one state.
[0:06:14] Geoff: Love it.
[0:06:15] Eric: Great.
[0:06:16] Geoff: Jay-Z on a jet ski looks like Gus all the time. Gus on his little bike. Yeah.
[0:06:24] Eric: That's pretty good. That's very funny. Okay. Empire state of mind as the first pick and Eric thoughts. Yeah. Not, I mean, close to what I was hoping for, but close is no cigar, I suppose. Nick, you have the second pick in the first round.
[0:06:44] Nick: Well, Eric, I might make you happy with this one because it's an actual state in the union and it's home to one of my favorite cities in the world. Beautiful Pacific Northwest area, Mount Rainier. Here, I'm going with the state of Washington. Washington. That's a good one. That's good. I love that state.
[0:07:05] Eric: Okay. So the first pick was empire state of mind. So it was England.
[0:07:10] Geoff: The second pick is Washington. Washington.
[0:07:13] Andrew: I think empire state of mind a little better. Washington personally. I've been to Washington. I would take empire state of mind over Washington any day. Okay.
[0:07:23] Eric: Okay. Okay. This is going to be a weird draft. My pick. I'm the third pick in the first round. Very easy for me. No hesitation. This should have been a number one. California, best state in the union, biggest state in the union. I think it's like the number seven GDP in the world. Number five.
[0:07:43] Geoff: It's number five.
[0:07:45] Eric: What?
[0:07:46] Geoff: It's number five GDP in the world.
[0:07:47] Eric: Knew that right offhand. Great. Anyway, California is my state and that will be my pick in the first round. The best state, Jeff, you're a fiery though, isn't it?
[0:08:00] Unidentified: It's a little hot. I mean, it's got a lot of water. It has a lot of water. It also has a lot of mountains and a lot of snow, some baggage, some baggage to that state for sure. So every state has baggage, dude. Yeah. It doesn't.
[0:08:14] Geoff: What?
[0:08:15] Unidentified: Empire state of mind.
[0:08:16] Geoff: Empire state of mind. Yeah. So I was excited about the spirit of this draft because we're using a finite pool. As I said earlier, it's nice to do a draft that's not pulling from everything from all times. And so I was thinking about like, I'm into drafting. I just went through the obviously the NBA draft. It's a big deal to me. One of the biggest deals of the year. And so I was thinking about like how you approach a draft, how you look at power rankings, you know, the the preeminent power rankings or NBA dot com. That's kind of how you determine who how place how people are going to go in the draft. And so I thought, who's like the preeminent like power ranker of states. So I went with U.S. News and World Reports 2023 listing. According to U.S. News and World Reports, the number one overall state. Yes, I'm thinking the number one overall state in America is Utah. It comes in at 84,898 square miles.
[0:09:16] Geoff: It has a GDP of two hundred and forty eight billion. Forty six point three percent of Utahns are college educated, has a population statewide population of three million three hundred eighty thousand eight hundred to the capital of Salt Lake City. The median income is thirty seven thousand three hundred and twenty five. It is listed as number 15 in crime and and corrections. It's number one in economy somehow. Number five in education. Number one in fiscal stability, which is important. Number seven in health care, which out of 50 ain't too bad. Number four in infrastructure, not great in natural environment. You would think it'd be better. It's forty six there. But number 20 in opportunity. And we all love opportunity.
[0:09:56] Eric: What is.
[0:09:57] Geoff: That's a lot of data. Utah. Well, I like to be scientific, you know, as you said, I don't want to go with deep cuts when I'm building my basketball team. I want to go with the best available players. And so Utah is number one in the power rankings.
[0:10:14] Eric: Gavin, do you have any thoughts on the picks so far?
[0:10:18] Geoff: Pretty solid.
[0:10:20] Eric: Good picks. Did you see Utah going first round?
[0:10:24] Gavin: Is that the moment place?
[0:10:26] Eric: Yes, it is.
[0:10:27] Gavin: Okay.
[0:10:28] Eric: It should really tell you something if that's how you identify it.
[0:10:34] Gavin: Yeah, it's like salt flats and Mormons.
[0:10:36] Unidentified: Yeah. That's about it. Number seven in health care.
[0:10:42] Geoff: Number four in infrastructure. Number one in fiscal stability. Don't underestimate the importance of fiscal stability. Okay.
[0:10:52] Gavin: It's the salt. Can you use the salt? Is it like salt? It is salt. What? Like you can just grab. Can you grab a handful of it and put it on your chips?
[0:11:01] Andrew: What are you doing? Okay. Never mind. Never mind. Cultural thing. What? I was thinking potato chips. When you said chips, you mean fries. That's on me. That's on me. It took me a while to translate. Yeah. Just imagine sitting down with a bag of chips, throwing more salt in. You can't put salt on them.
[0:11:15] Gavin: Because in my experience, there's two salts, right? There's salt, like table salt, and there's Himalayan, for some reason, pink salt. But you don't ever hear about Utah.
[0:11:26] Andrew: Isn't it the same? Isn't it just fancier? It's just fancier salt, right? I don't know how that works. I think it's just fancy salt.
[0:11:32] Geoff: Maybe we should do a salt draft.
[0:11:34] Eric: I think so. I agree.
[0:11:37] Geoff: I've got some black Hawaiian salt that's pretty good. Oh, shit. I've never heard of black ones. It comes from up near the volcanoes. I bought it when I was there. Great. I'm excited to see guys. It'd be my first round pick in the salt draft. Montana.
[0:11:56] Gavin: Okay. Okay. That's your first round pick. There are some things I like about it. It's one of the few states I've never been to, so I don't know a lot about it. I read that it has seven people per square mile, which is nice, pretty peaceful, pretty quiet. I've heard the sky is bigger there than other states. And I've also noticed that on the map, the shape of it is like if the bottom left corner of your fish tank exploded. Those are my reasons for enjoying the state of Montana.
[0:12:29] Eric: Have you never thought about how it looks like a person's face?
[0:12:34] Gavin: It's a person's face?
[0:12:35] Eric: No, I mean like if you look at Montana.
[0:12:39] Gavin: Right.
[0:12:39] Eric: You said like, oh, it looks like your fish tank exploded. You don't think that looks like a person's face? Oh, yeah, I see it.
[0:12:44] Gavin: Oh, like his little schlongy little nose?
[0:12:47] Eric: Yeah.
[0:12:48] Gavin: Kind of looks like you. Oh, I wonder what... Yeah, get him. What? Yeah, it looks like Montana's looking at Idaho.
[0:12:55] Andrew: Yes. That looks like a nose that can't get in a fish tank is what that nose looks like.
[0:12:59] Gavin: You know, I'd be interested in looking at property in the tip of the nose of Montana.
[0:13:04] Andrew: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. It looks like it's judging the state like diagonal to it. Bottom left. Like it's looking at it. It's checking it out. It's making sure nothing bad is going on down there.
[0:13:15] Eric: You've never been to Montana?
[0:13:18] Gavin: No, I've been to 29 states apparently, but never Montana. You're missing out. Good shit?
[0:13:26] Eric: Yeah. Good one. Well, it's a snake draft, so you get the first pick in our second round.
[0:13:30] Gavin: Okay. Next state. Liquid.
[0:13:35] Eric: See?
[0:13:36] Gavin: Of the different states of matter, I'd say liquid is the most interesting. Typically, if you look out of a window, you're going to be looking at gas and solid, but unless you're at the beach or unless you're, you know, somewhere of interest, you're not seeing water. Water is the most interesting state of matter, in my opinion.
[0:13:55] Andrew: As a water guy, I think this is a great pick. I might, I honestly, I may have taken it in the first round and went Montana in the second, but it's a great pick.
[0:14:06] Eric: Jeff, you have any thoughts on a liquid as a...
[0:14:09] Geoff: I'm a big fan of it. I drink liquid all day, every day. So I can't, I can't.
[0:14:14] Gavin: I mean, if I was choosing actually between liquid or Montana, I would go for liquid.
[0:14:18] Geoff: Right. For sure.
[0:14:19] Eric: It's Montana. Yeah.
[0:14:21] Gavin: Yeah. You chose Montana, though, you dumbass. Well, Montana has liquid in it.
[0:14:25] Geoff: That's true. Fair enough. Does liquid have Montana in it? Yeah, that's a great question. I don't think so. Hmm. I don't think so. All right. Who's next? You. Oh, it was me? Yeah. Okay. According to U.S. News and World Reports, the number three best overall state, I couldn't pick number two. That was Washington. Nick took that pick, is it comes in at number nine. And let's see if you can guess what it is. It comes in at number nine in Crimes and Corrections, number two in economy, number two in fiscal stability, number 10 in infrastructure, number 19 in opportunity. We discussed opportunity. It's something that everybody wants. And I'll say it. Everybody deserves. Number 14 in healthcare. And interestingly enough, at New Year's Eve every year, I thought I'd throw some more interesting data in there, they do a giant potato drop to ring in the New Year, kind of like in New York Times, they have the ball drop. Well, here they do the giant potato drop and everybody crowds around because the potato is the national or is the state vegetable, state fruits, the huckleberry.
[0:15:27] Geoff: Obviously, I'm talking about the number three overall best state in America, according to U.S. News and World Report, number 23 in national environment. I am talking about Idaho.
[0:15:36] Gavin: Oh, that was on my list.
[0:15:40] Eric: Wow. See, see what happens when we have a draft with a pool that's not infinite?
[0:15:45] Gavin: I'm going to have to come up with someone else.
[0:15:46] Geoff: Let's see. It's bordered by Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming. Those are all places you could visit easily from your state of Idaho.
[0:15:56] Eric: See, Gavin, and that's the point of the draft and why we do it this way, where it is going to block other people's picks and then you have to think on your feet. Didn't we have a block pick?
[0:16:03] Gavin: I already had that with rock candy. It's true.
[0:16:09] Eric: Yeah, we forgot about rock candy.
[0:16:13] Geoff: That's okay. Nick can just cut that part out of this and nobody knows.
[0:16:17] Eric: Yeah, I wouldn't want to make me look foolish. There you go.
[0:16:21] Geoff: Jeff, have you been to Idaho? I've been to almost all the states, so yes.
[0:16:25] Eric: Okay, so that's almost an answer to my question.
[0:16:28] Geoff: I've been to Boise, Idaho. I've been to Twin Falls, Idaho. I drove through it. I've been down to, what is it, where the Snake River is, where they crossed in Oregon Trail. I went down that. Yeah, I've been, I've been, I know Idaho. I know Idaho. And that's another thing about Idaho. Potatoes are in almost everything. Everybody loves potatoes, except for my fiance. Potatoes are like the fucking glue that keeps America together, and Idaho is where the potatoes are. It's very important.
[0:16:55] Eric: She doesn't like potatoes?
[0:16:56] Geoff: She doesn't like potatoes, no. She thinks mashed potatoes are the grossest thing ever. In any format, though? Crazy. She likes certain french fries, but that's it, man. She won't, hash browns, baked potato, none of that shit. She doesn't want it. She does not like the texture of a potato.
[0:17:12] Gavin: What was the style of potato that Chad used to make and bring over? Oh, gratin potatoes.
[0:17:17] Geoff: She doesn't like those.
[0:17:18] Gavin: Oh, that's so good.
[0:17:20] Geoff: Yeah, no kidding.
[0:17:20] Eric: She's good.
[0:17:21] Geoff: Yeah.
[0:17:22] Eric: Wow. So what are you going to do? Like, so like if you get that state.
[0:17:24] Geoff: I'll tell you what I'm not going to do. I'm not going to move to Idaho with her. There you go.
[0:17:28] Eric: See, that's, I guess what I was thinking. Yeah. Okay. I have the next pick in the second round. I'm going to take this one based purely on the people. Great, real blue collar, nose to the grindstone people. Classic weirdos with great accents. Um, my second pick, uh, is Pennsylvania. Oh, it is, uh, the way that they say water ice in the way that like that accent is so, is so funny. Like a yin's goings to the, uh, Eagles game. Like the way they talk. Fantastic. Thank you so much for being an insane place that if you're from, you don't leave. So it just gets this inbreeding of like accent that never, ever, ever, ever goes away. Uh, and that truly is a great state. Gritty is there. Uh, the Philly fanatic is there. They're probably related somehow.
[0:18:29] Eric: Pennsylvania. We salute you. And you are the, my second round pick. Thanks for cheesesteaks. Hey, there you go. See, they got a little bit of something for everyone. Nick thoughts.
[0:18:40] Nick: I love that state. Good pick.
[0:18:42] Eric: See, I thought, I thought I'd take it out from under Nick. You really did. Home of the Philadelphia Phillies. And now I'm really hurt. Yep. And when I take over Pennsylvania, they're dissolved as a team. All right.
[0:18:55] Geoff: All right. That's rough. Mike Schmitz rolling over in his grave. He's probably still alive. I'm going to take this draft out from under you, Eric.
[0:19:03] Eric: Okay. Nick, you're the, uh, next pick.
[0:19:06] Nick: All right. Triple X stated the union. Oh, that was on my list. Is next. That's for you. I was going to go with states all the way through.
[0:19:16] Gavin: And then you stole Pennsylvania. This sucks.
[0:19:22] Nick: Ice Cube replaces Xander Cage in this one. Mm-hmm. And, uh, they allegedly kill him off until he comes back in the sequel. But, you know, fun little 2005 movie that some people saw, I guess.
[0:19:35] Andrew: Oh, yeah, absolutely. We can talk triple X state of the union. It is classic Vin Diesel where they killed him off or in a Vin Diesel universe killed off a character brought back later. I'd maybe argue the best thing about triple X state of the union is Ice Cube's appearance in the third triple X movie as like a hero of sorts. He shows up in the last act for no reason for the grenade launcher. It's great. He saves the day. Has Nick sniped that from your list, Andrew? It was on my list. I didn't know if it would get contentious because it's not, it's a state of the union. I don't know if that would count under the thing. So I removed it. But, yeah, it was a consideration. For sure.
[0:20:10] Nick: No, I've got a state in it. It's fine.
[0:20:11] Andrew: Yeah. That's fair.
[0:20:13] Geoff: Clearly within the spirit of the draft.
[0:20:15] Andrew: All right. Next. Andrew. Oh, it's my pick. Okay. Yeah. Well, we're talking U.S. states. We've talked basketball. I'm taking, I'm taking the big state, taking the big state, which is some people may think of Alaska. Fuck that. I don't want that. I don't want that baggage. I don't want to deal with that. I don't give a fuck about Alaska. What I'm talking about is big state in the film. He got game. I'm talking. I'm talking Jesus Shuttlesworth. I'm talking public enemy. The state of big. That is the school that Denzel Washington, the beginning of the movie, he's, he gets told that his son, he needs to try to get him to big state, which is the governor. The governor runs the, I will think he governs. And he's like, I want your son on the team that I went to school for big state. He organizes a prison escape. Well, not an escape, but essentially an escape just to try to get this kid on his basketball
[0:21:15] Andrew: team. I respect that. I respect the mindset, the hustler mentality of big state. My second pick is big state.
[0:21:21] Geoff: Do you know who Jesus Shuttleworth, who played Jesus Shuttleworth, Shuttlesworth, rather? I'm blanking his name, but yeah. Ray fucking Allen. NBA great. Oh, really? Second greatest three point shooter of all time and greatest until Steph Curry came along. Dethroned Reggie Miller. Yeah, it was none other than like 19 year old Ray Allen himself, right? As he was going into the NBA. Oh, wow. So there we go. That's a literal state.
[0:21:46] Andrew: I picked a U.S. state. It is fictitious. Yeah. But it is a U.S. state. Love it. Now, do I have a swing? Does it go back to me? It does. Okay. Well, I am. If I am anything, I am. I am a big company guy. Love the company. Right. And that's what we've always said. Yeah. We talk about Andrew.
[0:22:07] Eric: We go big company guy.
[0:22:09] Andrew: When you think not the Rooster Teeth store, you think that is a company man right there.
[0:22:13] Eric: Yeah, that's. Yeah.
[0:22:14] Andrew: And there is a slogan company has a slogan, which is just playing as we're doing here at this current time. We're just playing. So I am taking with my third pick first round or first pick of the third round. I'm taking state of play. What a place to be in. It's what we do. It's about video games. I like to play. We're playing right now. I like to watch people play.
[0:22:38] Eric: I'm all saying we're playing right now. Like, you keep saying it. Well, that's what we do here.
[0:22:44] Andrew: It's what we do here. State of play. My third pick. God, that's. All right. Wait, what is that? When PlayStation does their press conferences, when they show the new games, they call it a state of play. So I'm all about the state of play.
[0:23:07] Geoff: That's motherfucking.
[0:23:08] Eric: I'm like, the most you're giving, and Gavin just keeps going, okay. Nick?
[0:23:17] Unidentified: Oh, fuck.
[0:23:20] Nick: I'll help you here, Eric. I'm going to get us back on track. I'm going to go with the state of Alaska. Thank you for your word for a second. But the state of Alaska, it's where I went on my honeymoon. So it holds a special place in my heart. And it's beautiful out there, you know? Too much sun a lot of the year. Not enough sun most of the rest of the year.
[0:23:38] Geoff: But, in between, real pretty. You get that three weeks there, it's fucking great.
[0:23:43] Nick: You travel there then, and then you leave the rest of the time.
[0:23:46] Geoff: Yeah, who wants to be on a vacation longer than three weeks anyway?
[0:23:48] Nick: Exactly. Did you see some northern lights? Oh, no. I missed out on that. But I did get to see some cool glaciers that were probably melting.
[0:23:56] Gavin: Oh.
[0:23:59] Eric: That's interesting. What? That were probably melting. Well, you know. Great. I think it's a safe assumption. Yeah.
[0:24:07] Unidentified: Yeah.
[0:24:08] Geoff: It's hot.
[0:24:09] Unidentified: Yeah.
[0:24:14] Geoff: Dumbass. Ice melts in the heat. Anyway. You're a big air. It's hot.
[0:24:21] Andrew: It's hot. The day's 23 hours long.
[0:24:23] Gavin: It melts.
[0:24:24] Andrew: It does. Yeah. I feel like the number one thing I hear about ice is that it's melting. So, I think that that's true.
[0:24:29] Eric: I hear about it a lot. I hear. And, you know, liquid was already taken as a state. So, it's something to think about. Too much sun. I will pick a true paradise. The last state to be ratified in the United States. It is Hawaii. Just barely inching out Alaska. Alaska was ratified in June of 59. And Hawaii in August of 59. So, within a one-year span, those are our two final states. Hawaii, we'll say the opposite of Alaska in terms of the amount of sun and not sun, I guess. It's very important to people. No ice. It is. It's a great state. It's mostly a state. So, that way, we had a stopover all the way to Japan in case of, you know, any kind of foul play or fighting. However, it is a state in the Union.
[0:25:30] Eric: So, I will be choosing Hawaii, a state where I proposed to my small wife. And there you go. That is my third pick. Very nice. As we go into Jeff.
[0:25:44] Geoff: Making it personal.
[0:25:45] Andrew: Yeah. That's a nice touch.
[0:25:47] Geoff: This pick is not as personal as Eric's pick. But I do have some personal feelings about it. Did you guys know, were you guys aware that Americans consume 68 billion cups of popcorn every year? That's enough popcorn to fill the Empire State Building 18 times. And this state produces more than 25% of the entire country's popcorn supply. Clearly, I'm talking about the number 26 state in crime and corrections. Number 7 in education. Number 12 in national environment. Number 10 in economy. It's obviously number 5 in infrastructure. You know they got to have an infrastructure to handle all that corn. Number 11 in fiscal stability. I am talking about the great agricultural state of Nebraska. Population of 1.967 million people. GDP of 1.162 billion. That's a lot of popcorn. Capital news, Lincoln. That's on my list as well.
[0:26:47] Geoff: Oh, wow. Wow. Was it really? I'm just going down there. It's on the U.S. News and World Report power rankings, number 4.
[0:26:56] Eric: What's the population of Austin, Texas? Is it half the population of Nebraska?
[0:27:01] Geoff: The population of Austin, Texas is a little over a million. Yeah.
[0:27:05] Eric: So it's about half the population of the state of Nebraska.
[0:27:08] Geoff: Well, the metro, I mean, the city itself is like right at a million. The metro is 2.4 million. So the metro area, which includes like Georgetown, Cedar Park, that area, is about 2.5 million.
[0:27:19] Gavin: So you're saying Nebraska makes enough popcorn to fill like four and a half Empire State Buildings. Excuse me?
[0:27:26] Geoff: Yeah. Are you saying that? I don't know. I'm just saying what I read.
[0:27:30] Gavin: Is it all you're saying?
[0:27:32] Geoff: I said that Nebraska makes enough popcorn to, they make 68 billion cups of popcorn every year. And that's enough to fill the Empire State Building 18 times. And that they produce more than 25% of our country's popcorn supply.
[0:27:43] Andrew: What's your issue with that, Gavin?
[0:27:45] Gavin: Well, no, I thought the total popcorn was 18 Empire States and they did 25%. So I was like, oh, maybe Nebraska alone is like four Empire States.
[0:27:53] Andrew: What?
[0:27:54] Gavin: I see what you're saying. I see what you're saying. Yeah.
[0:27:57] Eric: Hey, why is, Jeff, you picked this state and I'm just curious, like Lincoln is the capital, right?
[0:28:03] Geoff: According to my research, yes.
[0:28:05] Eric: Great. But Omaha is like the city that I, when I think of Nebraska, I think of Omaha.
[0:28:12] Geoff: Yeah, but mostly because of mutual of Omaha.
[0:28:15] Eric: That must be the reason. Why is it, why is Omaha trying to escape the state of Nebraska and move into the state of Iowa?
[0:28:22] Geoff: I'm glad, I'm glad you asked. So Omaha, it had been the territorial capital for a long time, but the Cedar government eventually got moved to Lancaster and then, which was renamed Lincoln following the assassination of Lincoln in 1865. I don't know if that exactly answers your words, but they're probably some kind of like how Philadelphia used to be the seat of power in America, but then they, and they refer to the elites who left to go live in the swamp in, uh, in Washington, D.C. As they say, they're, they're still bitter about it. I imagine the, uh, Omaha, the Omaha Hans are bitter about having the, uh, seat of government ripped out from under them.
[0:28:57] Eric: Did you think about any of that, Andrew?
[0:28:59] Geoff: All of it.
[0:29:00] Andrew: It's a consideration I typically have.
[0:29:04] Eric: Well, there you go. That's a great third pick. Thank you. Gavin, you're going to get our last third pick and our final fourth pick in our state draft.
[0:29:14] Gavin: Okay. All right. Here we go. Oh, great state song. That's a fugue state. Oh, oh.
[0:29:25] Nick: Yeah.
[0:29:25] Gavin: Um, a disassociative episode. Oh, I didn't say that right. Uh, I've, I learned about it from breaking bad where you could see into Brian Cranston's asshole almost from across the shop.
[0:29:39] Andrew: I thought you're taking New Mexico. I thought he was drafting New Mexico. Me too.
[0:29:45] Eric: Because of breaking bad. A hundred percent. Absolutely agree with you. Thought he was picking New Mexico. I was about to write it and then he said, fugue. So, fugues.
[0:29:58] Gavin: Reversible amnesia for one's identity, um, including memories, personality, and other identifying characteristic, oh, characteristics of individuality. How much popcorn can you fit into a fugue state? You can fit at least one cup of popcorn into that picture. Okay.
[0:30:18] Geoff: Are you on the verge of experiencing a fugue state right now?
[0:30:22] Gavin: Uh, I think so. I had too much coffee today.
[0:30:25] Eric: You need to do, you need to do our final pick. You can't go into a fugue state until we're done with this draft. Okay.
[0:30:29] Gavin: Well, I'll be honest. My only, uh, my only stupid pick originally was liquid. And, uh, then I had Idaho and Nebraska. So, we're, we're really reaching, we're stretching. Uh, my final pick, uh, is, is nuclear criticality. The, the, the state of a nuclear power station where everything is going right. And I think that's one of the best states that can possibly exist inside nuclear power.
[0:30:55] Andrew: At least, at least all mine have state the name. I just want that stated. They're states.
[0:31:00] Eric: Okay. I'm not giving you an inch, Andrew. I don't know. Uh-uh. If you're doing state of play or whatever, then Gavin could do nuclear criticality. Yeah, no shit. Couldn't just pick Iowa. Big state.
[0:31:19] Geoff: I didn't, I didn't research those. You, you did do research on nuclear criticality.
[0:31:27] Andrew: I did a little bit of panic research. Did you feel that? You've been to, what, like 22, 23 states? You can't. 29.
[0:31:34] Gavin: But the thing is, is, uh, Andrew, I'm looking at your column and it's really spurring me on in possibly the wrong direction. So, don't you start blaming me. Oh, Lord.
[0:31:47] Eric: Well, uh, Jeff, what is your final pick?
[0:31:50] Geoff: Okay, my final state moving down the, uh, U.S. News and World Report, uh, uh, power rankings. This state is, uh, well, actually, this state is interesting because it spawned a lot of people, a lot of famous people, a lot of talented people you may have heard of. I'm talking about, uh, Gilbert Godfrey, David Wayne, um, Ken Marino, Michael Showalter, Joe Latrulio, Kerry, Kenny, Michael Ian Black, all of these people were cast in the 1993 television show on MTV, The State, which is one of the best, uh, sketch comedy shows of all time. And if you've never seen it, uh, you, I, I really recommend it. It's got the famous catchphrase. I dip my balls in it.
[0:32:32] Eric: Yeah. Um, I will say, Jeff, did you have The State as one of your original picks or were you spurred on by, uh, Gavin and Andrew?
[0:32:40] Geoff: I always had The State as number four.
[0:32:43] Eric: Okay.
[0:32:44] Geoff: I was going to take the best three state states available via U.S. News and World Report, and then I was going to mix it up.
[0:32:50] Eric: The State is just most people that went on to do Reno 911 and Stella and... Any David Wayne movie, yeah. Oh, yeah.
[0:33:01] Geoff: Wet Hot American Summer, all the same people.
[0:33:04] Eric: Yep. So, very cool. The State, good one. That's very cool.
[0:33:08] Gavin: Why are you cool with that one, but not Andrews?
[0:33:10] Eric: Oh, I'm not cool with this.
[0:33:11] Gavin: He's not. Oh. No, I, again... You just said cool a lot.
[0:33:15] Eric: Yeah, it's just, no, it's cool. I mean, The State is cool. As a pick in our state draft, it's not cool. But, as a thing in itself, I do like it.
[0:33:24] Gavin: Eric, I think you've learned a valuable lesson in being specific over text.
[0:33:29] Eric: Yeah. Yeah. That's right. I'm a fucking idiot.
[0:33:33] Geoff: I will say, if I hadn't picked the state, it was going to be Minnesota, so Minnesota's up for grabs if anybody wants it.
[0:33:40] Eric: That's great. I will say, my last pick, I think, is going to be one that was never on anyone's list. I don't think that, I don't think anyone was going to pick it. I think it's a cool state. New Hampshire. Small state. New England state. It's up there at the top. They got black bears. Their motto is, live free or die. I think it's great. But, if I were to take over this state, like, in my thinking of, like, oh, you know, if I'm picking my states, I'm going to make a union out of my states. New Hampshire is my pick. The first state, right? Is it the first state? Nick would know.
[0:34:18] Geoff: It's the first state in the presidential primaries, right? The DNC, the Democratic primary.
[0:34:22] Eric: I think it might be. I think you're right. My reasoning for it is, the live free or die thing is very cool, and also, if I were to take over that state, I would rename it to New Hamster, and that would just be the end of it. So, that's my thinking for New Hampshire, and why it's my fourth pick in this state draft. I stuck with states.
[0:34:43] Geoff: You know what, Eric? I saw a New Hampshire license plate yesterday. Small world.
[0:34:46] Eric: Oh, that's fun.
[0:34:48] Geoff: Yeah. There you go.
[0:34:50] Nick: Nick, what's your fourth pick?
[0:34:53] Geoff: What's your bullshit fourth pick?
[0:34:54] Nick: No, no, it's a state in the union, and I only went off track because Eric stole Pennsylvania. That's his own part. That's retaliated. Yeah, it really was. Exactly. Payback. This state is home to four national parks and, allegedly, the largest airport in size in the U.S., it is Colorado. Colorado.
[0:35:17] Eric: Oh, Colorado was on my list. I almost took it. I love that state. Oh, that's a good one.
[0:35:22] Nick: Face Jam actually took a road trip up there, which was a lot of fun, too. And what a great way to see that in a car with three co-workers and another van full of people shooting everything you do. Not friends, co-workers. A couple of friends and co-workers. Michael's made it very clear that we are co-workers.
[0:35:41] Geoff: People that I have a professional working relationship with.
[0:35:44] Nick: People who hold microphones near me. What do you think of the shape of the state?
[0:35:50] Eric: Great shape. Great shape, yeah. Great shape for Colorado.
[0:35:53] Nick: Yeah. Beautiful. A couple of facts. They have the highest paved road in the U.S., the longest continuous street in the U.S., World War II troops trained for mountain combat there, and allegedly the cheeseburger was invented in Denver.
[0:36:07] Geoff: That's true. I've read that. That's in my list of state facts. The cheeseburger was invented there. Yeah. Really? So thank you to Colorado.
[0:36:17] Eric: That's good. The only reason it was lower on my list and I didn't pick it is because I was just there and it takes like 45 minutes to get from a city to the airport. That is true. And that knocks it way down.
[0:36:32] Geoff: Oh, my God. Oh, do you guys want to hear a fucking a small world thing about? Denver or about Colorado? While there's much contention around where the cheeseburger was really invented, it was in Colorado that the term was coined. Trademarked by Lewis Ballast of Denver's Humpty Dumpty Drive-In in Denver in 1935. It was coined at the Humpty Dumpty Drive-In. Wow. God damn, dude. The boy's a dumpty ride again. Incredible. Incredible.
[0:37:11] Eric: Oh, man. Well, there you have it. And now, Andrew. Oh, shit. He's just going to do like finalists.
[0:37:18] Geoff: Well, yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. Andrew's scrambling because Gavin picked nuclear criticality. Yeah.
[0:37:26] Eric: He was going to pick Colorado and now he's like, oh, fuck, what am I going to do?
[0:37:30] Andrew: Well, I've been to the four states and two of them I didn't want to take. So I did plan on taking one of the ones I went at this spot, but that's gone. Mine were taken. So I have no real states I could pick. I did. Plenty of real states left to pick. Because I love it so much, just drafting state of play the film as opposed to it's a different thing than the live stream. But I'm not going to do that. I'm going to stick once again, real state in a fictitious place. Blue Mountain State will be my final pick of the draft. Once again, it's a state in the world that it's in. I think it's Alan Richardson. Yeah. You know him. Yeah. I've never seen the show. I don't have a lot to say about it. Um, you, wait, what? And yet it's your fourth and final pick. Well, the states I visited have already been taken, so I can't take those. I don't really want to take. I, well, Hawaii, I was going to, I was open to Hawaii or Washington. Oh, you mean Eric's third pick? Yeah.
[0:38:30] Andrew: Hawaii or Washington would be my two. That I considered. I, yeah, I don't think I could take two states of play. I have stated a K, but that just felt, I don't know. I liked the first game. Right. I'm going to go through Blue Mountain State.
[0:38:45] Eric: State of emergency, you didn't feel like.
[0:38:46] Andrew: Thought about that. Yeah, I never played it. That was like the game on the shelf that I wasn't allowed to rent when I was a kid, but it always looked cool.
[0:38:53] Gavin: It was at 18 and I wasn't allowed to rent that either.
[0:38:54] Andrew: Yeah, exactly. So, I'm a Blue Mountain State.
[0:38:58] Gavin: I don't have Texas fans in the room.
[0:39:01] Eric: No, I was never going to take Texas. No, I couldn't take Texas. Terrible state. That was one of my four.
[0:39:05] Andrew: My other one I was never going to take is California, personally. I just have no need for it. It's a pretty similar weather. You don't need California? I don't need it. It's right next to me.
[0:39:15] Geoff: Blue Mountain State is based on Virginia Tech, so that would be the state.
[0:39:19] Andrew: Oh. Well, it's based on. It isn't. Based on is not the same. It is. Right. Thanks.
[0:39:25] Gavin: But isn't Washington closer to you?
[0:39:27] Andrew: Yeah, but that was taken.
[0:39:30] Gavin: But you said you didn't want to take California because it's close to you, but the one you were going to take is even closer.
[0:39:33] Andrew: Yeah, but Washington has a different feel. California is.
[0:39:36] Eric: Yeah, yeah, Gavin. Come on. Oh, sorry.
[0:39:40] Gavin: I apologize.
[0:39:41] Eric: Yeah. Thank you for the proximity. Because it's the proximity. Apology barely accepted.
[0:39:46] Andrew: You know how Eric complained about the airport, the distance to the airport, Colorado? That's my feelings about California. It's a little too far for the same. The overlap in Washington, it's close enough for me to be okay with it. I could take a 60-minute boat ride to get there.
[0:40:00] Gavin: I feel like California shouldn't be on there because LAX is the worst airport in the world.
[0:40:06] Eric: No, it's not. It's definitely not. It's not even close.
[0:40:10] Geoff: But Atlanta's got the worst airport in the world or fucking New York. Chicago O'Hare? Chicago O'Hare. Oh, that's a dog shit airport, too.
[0:40:19] Gavin: I think, well, Chicago, I always get delayed. But as an airport, it's more welcoming than the blast in the face of noise and filth that occurs at LAX, especially when coming international.
[0:40:32] Eric: No, no, no. Okay. I would much rather go to LAX than Atlanta.
[0:40:39] Geoff: Yeah. Atlanta's fun. Interesting.
[0:40:42] Eric: I'd rather go to LAX than O'Hare.
[0:40:45] Geoff: Has anyone ever flown out of O'Hare on time in history? Not ever. No.
[0:40:50] Eric: No, never.
[0:40:51] Geoff: It's not possible. You're going to lose your kid in that airport.
[0:40:54] Gavin: I would rather fly, like, I'd rather fly Heathrow to Austin via LA than Chicago O'Hare. And I have done that before, but not by choice.
[0:41:07] Eric: Wow. Well, that's our draft. Let me just go through these picks. Andrew, Empire State of Mind. Shout out to 560 State Street. Great. Big State. State of Play. And Blue Mountain State. Never seen it. Nick has picked Washington, XXX State of the Union, Alaska, and Colorado. Eric, who played in the spirit of the draft. Yeah. California, Pennsylvania, Hawaii, and New Hamster. Fourth was Jeff, who almost did it.
[0:41:59] Andrew: Utah, Idaho, Nebraska, and the state. So, sorry, just for a second. You were reading off of a list, Jeff, of, like, what the number one were?
[0:42:08] Geoff: Yeah, it was like the best states in America as ranked by U.S. News and World Report. It's a list that they put out every year. They weren't even your picks. No. No, that's what I was saying. I was going, like, off the power rankings.
[0:42:19] Andrew: Yeah, I feel like it's like when I would do, like, a fantasy draft with a magazine, and I'm just getting the next off the board round after round. Just getting the best available.
[0:42:27] Geoff: I'm trying to build the most powerful state team.
[0:42:30] Eric: Yep. And then, finally, Gavin, who picked Montana. Liquid. Great pick. Fugue. And Nuclear Criticality.
[0:42:42] Gavin: I think I've done well. I think I've done all right. You did really well.
[0:42:44] Andrew: I was thinking, with Nick talking about Alaska and the ice melting, what happens when the ice melts? What does it do? Comes liquid. Yeah. What does that liquid become? A Terminator. Terminator 2. An upgrade over the first film. A great film. A terrifying villain. I think that's a great pick.
[0:42:59] Eric: You think the liquid from the melting ice caps turns into Terminator from Terminator 2? Holy shit.
[0:43:06] Geoff: What if the whole point of the polar ice caps is that it's all the Terminators ever frozen and global warming is really unleashing the robot army on us?
[0:43:19] Andrew: Skynet was here all along. You know, I guess what if? Every Al Gore ad just has the... Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.
[0:43:27] Gavin: So Andrew's saying I basically drafted the T-1000, which I think is only bonus points. Yeah.
[0:43:33] Unidentified: For sure. Yeah. Good pick. So if anyone won this, it's me.
[0:43:37] Geoff: Yeah. Eric wins by default. I'm sad to say, but he definitely does. We'll see.
[0:43:43] Eric: Yeah. We'll see. We'll see. We'll see.
[0:43:49] Gavin: I really want to go to Montana.
[0:43:51] Geoff: Let's go. So you can get it off your list?
[0:43:54] Gavin: I'd love to get it off my list.
[0:43:56] Geoff: Have you been to Minnesota yet?
[0:43:58] Gavin: Let me check.
[0:44:01] Eric: What are you checking?
[0:44:02] Gavin: He's checking his little app. He's checking his little app. Oh, I don't know. You tell me. Hold on.
[0:44:09] Eric: How often do you use this app?
[0:44:12] Geoff: It's looking at an app.
[0:44:12] Eric: Every time I go to a new state.
[0:44:14] Geoff: Is this the app that Becca Frazier told you to use a long time ago? Possibly? Yeah. I think so.
[0:44:22] Eric: So you use this app when you go to a new state. So how often do you use this app?
[0:44:28] Gavin: I just went to Kentucky a few months ago. Put that off my. What's new? Hold on. Posting this. You should know. All right. He's checking out the updates. You tell me. Where have I been?
[0:44:41] Eric: Oh, wow. You have. You've really. Like you're like going around in like spiral style taking over the U.S.
[0:44:49] Gavin: Basically, that is 10 years worth of business trips. And nothing has ever taken me to that big hunk in the middle. Like what is there? What is out there? Not a lot of business.
[0:44:59] Eric: You fly over that.
[0:45:01] Geoff: That's where all the potatoes and corn are, man. Yeah.
[0:45:05] Eric: That's where. Those are all of those that aren't highlighted. Those are what we call the flyover states.
[0:45:10] Geoff: If Gavin. So you've never been to Minnesota, just so you can understand it. You know how Louisiana is the boot. Right. At the bottom. It looks like a boot. Face and right. Or an L. If you follow the leg all the way up to the top. The very top where the thigh is. And it looks like it's going to touch a crotch. That's Minnesota.
[0:45:28] Eric: Well, there you have it. The state draft. I had a great time. Great.
[0:45:34] Geoff: I'm amazed. I'm amazed this wasn't a blindside. And I'm so happy it wasn't.
[0:45:41] Eric: I was having a drink at a wedding. And I went, wouldn't this be fun? And here we are. You were right. Was it fun? With Big State and Triple X State of the Union and Fugue. All on the draft board. Fantastic.
[0:45:56] Gavin: When you were having that conversation at the wedding, did you not think Brian Cranston's ass was going to come up? Like, not even a possibility?
[0:46:02] Eric: No. It definitely didn't cross my mind while I was at the wedding.
[0:46:06] Gavin: No. Okay.
[0:46:07] Eric: I don't think I've ever had that thought. It's never been. No, I also have not. No. Ever, ever. But we did it. We've done another successful draft for F*** Face. Thank you so much for listening. You can comment on this and let us know what your states are.
[0:46:22] Gavin: I have a question, though. What would this have looked like if we just had a list of half the states?
[0:46:27] Eric: I think that it would have been arguments about people who picked the same states and someone's going to have to take Wyoming.
[0:46:34] Geoff: Yeah, look at how salty people got about states that got picked already.
[0:46:38] Eric: Yeah. So, yeah, Nick didn't like that I picked Pennsylvania, so he picked XXX State of the Union.
[0:46:45] Geoff: And I'm not talking fancy pink Himalayan salt, either. I'm talking fucking Morton's gross-ass table salt. Oh, yeah.
[0:46:52] Eric: I just think that there are 50 states in the U.S. and probably about 13 good ones. If that. Okay. Maybe 13. And none of the ones I picked, by the way. No, because if you, like, Utah is a first pick. Crazy. I'm just happy that no one picked Arizona, which I feel is the worst state in the Union. And, like, that's what I anticipate.
[0:47:16] Geoff: You think Arizona's worse than Louisiana?
[0:47:18] Eric: Yes.
[0:47:18] Geoff: Oh, man.
[0:47:20] Eric: I think Arizona is a shame. I think it should get split.
[0:47:23] Geoff: I think it's too hot, dude.
[0:47:25] Eric: I think the four states around it should, like, each take a piece and, like, expand a little bit.
[0:47:30] Geoff: First off, Tucson is cool. And Flagstaff is cool. No. The rest of the state's not. Flagstaff's cool as fuck, dude. Flagstaff is the spot. Don't sleep on Flagstaff. Sleep all you want on Flagstaff. Don't do it. It's a cool-ass town.
[0:47:46] Gavin: I'm just wondering if I live here, if I just keep living here and don't go home, what will be the last state I naturally visit? Because I think eventually I'll get taken to some more.
[0:47:57] Eric: I think Alaska.
[0:47:58] Gavin: See, I could see myself filming something there. I just, I feel like I would never touch Wyoming. I don't think there would ever be a reason to go there.
[0:48:04] Geoff: No, you would touch Wyoming because it's a big, it's a big place for influencers to go out and buy ranches and stuff. And, like, Kanye lives out there. And Jeffree Star lives out there. And a lot of those Hollywood types. So there could be, like, a big shoot for some sort of an event or something out there.
[0:48:20] Eric: Yeah, you can go out there with Jeffree Star and Kanye.
[0:48:21] Geoff: Yeah, do I give off big Kanye vibes? No, not at all.
[0:48:24] Eric: When I think of you, I'm like, oh, you're filming something.
[0:48:26] Geoff: I'm just saying, it's become, like, a playground for a lot of, like, celebrity type, a lot of people that make content. And you tend to, the circles that we work in tend to go where content is from time to time. And I could see there being a better chance of you going there than, like, North Dakota.
[0:48:43] Eric: Oh, I think it's, see, I think Maine. I don't think you're going to Maine.
[0:48:48] Geoff: I think if you go to one of those places, you go to all of them at once, right? You just do, like, a little road trip. Yeah. Well, I feel like Apple's could potentially take us to Maine.
[0:48:55] Eric: I just think Maine is way up there, and you've already hit pretty much everything else around there. Just doesn't feel like there's going to be a thing where you're like, got to go to Maine.
[0:49:04] Geoff: Has anybody in this video or this audio been to Maine?
[0:49:09] Unidentified: No.
[0:49:10] Eric: No.
[0:49:11] Geoff: Wow. Andrew, you've obviously been to Maine. I wonder how many states in America there are that none of us have been to. It might only be Maine. Hmm. I mean, everyone fill this app out, and then we'll be able to cross-reference. Yeah, we should, because it would be interesting to find out if there's, like, one or two or three states that none of us have been to. We could go for the first time together. And you've probably got the most, Jeff, haven't you? Yeah, I've been to, like, 46 states, I think, 45. Wow. Jesus. Wow.
[0:49:39] Eric: So, oh, hang on. Then why are we all filling this out? I'll fill it out. You fill it out, and then we'll go, okay, we haven't been to these four.
[0:49:46] Gavin: All right, I'll fill it out. Well, let me ask you this, Jeff. What, from my list, have you not been to? I've never been to North Dakota.
[0:49:53] Geoff: I've never been to Maine.
[0:49:56] Andrew: I mean, that's what I'm on my list.
[0:49:58] Geoff: I've never been to Vermont. I've never been to Rhode Island. I've never been to New Hampshire. That's about it. I think those places in North Dakota are the only places I've never been. Yeah.
[0:50:12] Eric: Well, there you have it. The state draft, only the way that face could do it. Thank you so much for listening. Well, you fucking asshole, I told you. No, hi. No, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I appreciate it. But if you like this, listen to the other ones. They're pretty much like this, but weirder, I would think. Thanks for listening. Go give us a follow at F***FacePod on Instagram, on Twitter. Go follow us on YouTube. You can watch this or listen to it, whatever you like, and you can check out all of our cool, cool content. Thank you so much for listening. Andrew, any parting words for everyone out there? Shout out to 500 State Street once again. Can I ask a question?
[0:50:55] Geoff: Are you saying, Eric, that the other drafts are weirder than the state of play and nuclear criticality?
[0:51:01] Eric: Yeah, I don't think they are. I mean... That's so fucking up there. I think Rock Not Rock is a tough one to top.
[0:51:08] Geoff: Hmm.
[0:51:10] Eric: Clear pool. Like, on its face, it's telling you what it is, and I think we really take it in a lot of different directions. So I think Rock Not Rock is definitely at the top. What do you think, audience?
[0:51:23] Unidentified: State of play. We're just playing.
[0:51:27] Eric: Okay. That's it.
