41:51[00:04] on the channel. We're going to be playing more Control Resonant today with our at least one co-pilot up there, Dandy taking a little bath. And then this afternoon, uh, I've got a meeting from 11 to 12 and then pretty much right
[00:17] Balheim for a couple to a few hours this afternoon. So, we've got a lot of fun stuff. Is co the really weird bit yet? I don't think so.
[00:29] [laughter] I mean, it's all it's all been pretty weird. I mean, it's a it's a why we play these games. Early thoughts and Control Resonant. I am loving it overall. Um, the the TLDDR is there's parts of it I wish were a little more
[00:44] parts of it I wish were a little more developed or complex, but um overall I am loving it and it is every bit of the remedy verse that I was hoping. Sky Famous with the 10 bomb, mini tuxedo with the five bomb. Thinking of both of
[00:59] you guys. Really appreciate it. Thank you. Thank you. Let me do my daily you. Thank you. Let me do my daily plugging in with my controller.
[01:11] Valheim, the Ashland's boss. And today we're going to be uh probably starting to work our way over to it. I think I we'll I'll probably run around the exploration. I think we need we could probably do one more flam metal, too.
[01:24] Okay, so now we need to go get the rest of these speakers. Uh, or what else could we do? We could we could sever the heedron links. Oh, I want to
[01:37] go I want to do Zoe's briefing and Pope's thing. So, let's do let's start Pope's thing. So, let's do let's start with Pope's research today.
[01:52] I thought it was just go talk to a person. Set up probe relays in the person. Set up probe relays in the unknown.
[02:11] how do we get back to the unknown? Um, that was through the oldest house. No, no. The part under the oldest house is the underpass. Leave that for later. Okay. Yeah, I I that we're going to we're going to
[02:26] revisit that later. Let's do Zoe's briefing. There we go. Zoe's briefing. Okay. Uh let me see here.
[02:48] Oh, yeah. No, no, no. I I turned down all the ION 2 stuff. Yeah, I I passed on all the sponsor stuff for ION 2. I I will not be playing ION 2, but more power if you are, and I hope you enjoy it if you do. Yep. [clears throat]
[03:12] [laughter] >> Hey, I'm not going to yuck your yum. too. >> Seems a little unlikely right now. Good show. Oo, the hot dog incident.
[03:28] Uh-oh. Mini tuxedo with a second bomb. Dude, thank you so much. Hey, are you better. I know you've been sick for a little bit, so hopefully this is just you feeling a lot better. Um, [laughter] but it's good to see you, dude. All
[03:41] right. Effective immediately, all types of brands of hot dogs and or wieners are no longer permitted within the oldest house. Corn dogs are borderline. All refrain from arguing the merits and faults of various types of hot dogs,
[03:54] condiment or blank style hot dogs are superior to other hot dogs. This is due to the events of blank on 10121 during which a cafeteria hot dog was blank and subsequently blanked blanked
[04:07] hot dog was blank blank leaving agent blank too traumatized and causing internal blank to four others. Who blanked casings and all? [laughter]
[04:25] Huh. That's uh that's a thing. >> Oh, hi. >> You want me to get this power upgrade? >> Chill. Hi, >> Dylan. Good. Something's popped up.
[04:39] the oldest house for the first time in 60 years. it took or what, but we need someone to look into it. >> It's coming from somewhere in the bottom of the building, which means you're
[04:51] going to have to go in through the sinkhole. is for. >> Of course not. It's high priority and >> But it's loud. >> This is one of those times where the
[05:06] lack of computerization in the oldest house really bites us in the ass. archives myself and see if I can find anything to help you. Oh, one more thing. Do you know Dr. Rhea Underhill? She's our mold expert. Her
[05:22] team's got some kind of a problem and they need support. That'd be you. You they need support. That'd be you. You can find them in the park. >> She's the kind of person who finds fungi and
[05:37] >> Underh Hill is the person that was being real shitty to her team, wasn't it? Was >> Bacteria more interesting than people from what I hear. I've never met her, but she's got a rep. Smart as a whip, but kind of a pain in the ass. Yeah,
[05:50] >> which I could definitely get behind. >> She's a contractor anybody. >> Okay, I'll look into it.
[06:02] >> Great. Let's start with Let's start with the oldest house alarm.
[06:36] Hey, Proas. What's up, buddy? Satisfactory map DLC is confirmed. I >> Alarm is going off in the old. >> Very excited. Keep your eyes open. >> Very excited. Keep your eyes open. >> Got it.
[06:59] Uh, damn. this way. Okay. Is that rumbling supposed to be the
[07:15] Is that rumbling supposed to be the alarm? I don't think so.
[07:34] but there's an intercom. >> Uh, hang on. I dug up an old manual after we first detected the alarm. It's got some weird as hell instructions. Okay, let me see. Ah, maintenance protocol.
[07:47] >> There it says to use Morse code for the word in to enter. It's two short auditive responses followed by one long. Sounds simple enough.
[08:03] >> Damned if I know. I've never been into secret codes and all that spy [ __ ] Just secret codes and all that spy [ __ ] Just try something out.
[08:21] vibration sound on my cell phones. It's Dylan Faden. I I'd know that anywhere. That it that's amazing. I've been I've been hearing him for so long. Incredible.
[08:38] Oh lord. Good show. Hey, thank you. Mini tuxedo with another five bro. Sir, thank you very much.
[08:51] five bro. Sir, thank you very much. It's like 15 from him so far today. I am so sorry that I'm going after your snazzles. snazzles. Your your schnozles.
[10:29] do. I'm not I'm not a big fan of fun tactical zigzag. Yeah. tactical zigzag. Yeah. No.
[10:48] [groaning] Mini, is your account compromised? Clocked. Finish a challenge before time runs out. Kill and execute enemies to are, the better your chance of getting into the top three on the leaderboard.
[11:02] Oh lord. Oh, one sec. No, bro. He says, "Thank you so much, tuxedo. Very nice, you buddy." Hold on. I'm going to let this cat do his thing.
[11:18] back. Come on. You going up? I'm going try lifting you. Here we go. This is a mistake. Overdoing it. Hey, that worked. Look at that. Is that better? You content? You going to settle? You chill.
[11:33] Good man. All right. Good man. All right. Let's see if we can actually do this.
[11:49] >> Oh, I like that it pauses during the executions.
[12:40] >> Where are the funguses? We got to go after the funguses. What is happening in chat? I very much appreciate it, dude. Oh,
[13:00] >> why is just refusing to target this guy properly?
[13:28] Oh lord. What is this? Oh, he's on the wrong wall. Shoot.
[14:25] There we go. There we go. There we go. Go, go, GO.
[14:44] [groaning] [screaming]
[15:16] OKAY. Where's this other guy? I don't even know where he is. I can't even like see where these other dudes are. dudes are. Okay, THERE'S THERE'S SOME
[15:36] THE HELL AM I GOING TO GET THIS? THERE we go.
[17:13] Jeez, that was intense. Mini with more Dark Skies and Kane, thank you for that during that. That was thank you for that during that. That was that was nuts. Appreciate that greatly.
[17:42] this is where we're going. I think this is where we came in, right? is where we came in, right? No.
[18:01] oldest house into who knows what. If the foundation is above us, then where are we now? The ground, the footing, the bedrock, or maybe the rib zone. There's much. Certainly Northmore knows more than Ash Senior ever did. But our
[18:14] progress is slowed to a crawl. There's, for lack of a better term, a pressure of you. And all those sheer drops. We haven't lost anyone yet, but it's only a matter of time. And what are the rooms stored at the bottom defunct and
[18:26] them or sending them to a burial to rot and decay? Or are these spaces actually blank? We're being pulled back until we can formulate a new approach. It might director is with blank. I'm not sorry to hear that. If there's something strange
[18:40] I bet we shouldn't kill ourselves to find it. Marcus Kill Kenny, expedition leader. Thank you, Minnie. Appreciate it, buddy.
[19:21] house has changed blank over the decades centuries if not blank of its existence it was Dr. Ash had a researcher who was especially interested in the connection of these forms might have to do with the tree symbol uh symbology
[19:34] found symbology found in the mythology of several cultures. Um this symbology would designate the foundation as the roots of the oldest house from which this tree grew upwards. But what if it
[19:46] foundation is not the roots of this tree, but its trunk?
[20:04] >> well, hello there, intrepid FBC employee. So, you're here to begin the fascinating task of light bulb appeasement. This critical maintenance protocol will keep the oldest house from ever
[20:18] worsening fit of shifting that if not stopped in time will turn us all into pancakes. And we don't want that now do we? In this protocol, you'll need to ritualistically appease any loose light
[20:34] bulbs in the area or else they will wreak all kinds of havoc in our core structures. The ritual itself is simple. Twist the problematic bulbs three times in their socket. Righty tighty.
[20:50] The switchboard will show which bulbs need attention. need attention. Good luck. I'm going to burn this place to the ground.
[21:05] >> Okay, so three light bulbs.
[21:17] They're all in underpass. Wait, where are they? Oh my lord. What?
[21:33] here. Hey, Poppers. I'm surprised there's not a fast travel back here. I feel like maybe there is and I missed it.
[22:26] Um, this way.
[22:40] I'm on the ceiling, as you do. Um. Um. Oh, Lord.
[23:02] There we go. Can I get up there? How does one get up there? I don't feel like that was the right way to do that, man. Damn it.
[23:23] Um, move this way. I don't think so. Oh, maybe. Yes. Okay. Man, that room is confusing. All right,
[23:40] let's look down here. Uh, yeah, we'll go here.
[24:07] cooperate. So, be sure to make the area safe for the appeasement ritual. And look out, if it feels threatened, the light bulb might panic. But it's nothing
[24:19] light bulb might panic. But it's nothing a few soothing words can't fix. Fun fact, I've been down here so long that I've lost all sense of time.
[24:45] You seem stressed. Try not being stressed. >> I mean, that's fair. >> It's okay. You're okay. I promise nobody
[25:00] >> It's okay. You're okay. I promise nobody is going to hurt you.
[25:57] >> If you let me help, you can be the brightest version of yourself. brightest version of yourself. There we go.
[26:21] see it. Um, I think this is the best travel we're just going to kind of make our way to them if we can. Um, huh.
[26:35] [laughter] Well, Well, maybe not. Uh, I can't make this, right?
[26:58] >> You know, I wonder if there's a world. Hold on. Hold on.
[27:18] There's a lot of velocity you can get on that. I wonder if we can make it to supposed to get across here? I felt like those things connect them. Do I have to
[27:30] go to that one first? I think that's what I have to do. Maybe there's a better fast travel if I approach from the other side.
[27:42] side. Let's go to Tubes Island and let's see if we can go across to two this way. see if we can go across to two this way. It's a bit easier.
[28:06] through. Just passing through. We chilling.
[28:31] all things organ. You need to get rid of any unlike around this white hole before it can be appeased. A gardener's job is never done. You should always eat your veggies like
[28:46] You should always eat your veggies like I used to tell my kids. My kids. a >> Hey, Oblivion.
[29:08] So, we probably got to find some nodules here, I'm guessing.
[30:04] Something's going on over there. I can smells it.
[30:38] doesn't play nice with other energy sources. So before you can perform the appeasement ritual, you first need to make sure no batteries or generators or whatnot are around to give it a headache. No one likes [ __ ] right?
[30:54] I would like some position company.
[31:07] >> Okay, there's one also. That poor guy.
[31:56] That's That's awkward, but we can do that. It's fine.
[32:08] >> is what I would say if there wasn't just one more thing. Now that you've safely appeased all malfunctioning light bulbs, you need to return to the projector room you need to return to the projector room for the final step of the ritual. You're
[32:22] so close to avoiding the untimely flattening of our employees.
[32:38] Okay, that sounds fun. Um, now we're kind of this, of course, right now. Here in a sec. But
[33:21] Oh, I'll just have to find it for you again. Oh, won't I? again. Oh, won't I? >> Yes, I will. Yes, I will.
[34:53] H Was that's the Yeah, there's the weird projection.
[36:30] this puffers. Didn't find this puffers toy. Didn't find this puffers toy. That's this way. Oh. Oh.
[36:46] Yep. Oh,
[37:14] There was no toy in there, was there? No.
[37:28] Well, we can go back to this. Maybe the toy is not in this area.
[37:43] get over there from here? There we go. Hey, Nuriel. gravity of the situation. I swear to gourd. I swear to God gourd. Um, let's
[37:59] gourd. I swear to God gourd. Um, let's see. We're going down to
[38:41] light bulb that needs fixing. It's just here inside the projection. I know what you're thinking. How can that be? But it's hardly the strangest thing you've
[38:53] encountered during your time as an FBC employee, now is it? All it takes is for you to touch the projection. Easy as pie. I had to do it, too. And did I complain? Only a little. Now go on.
[39:23] more dialogue cuz I have a feeling this is going to cuz I have a feeling this is going to like trap us in there.
[39:42] It worked. I'm out. I'm finally out. [laughter] Wait, where are you going? >> I'm going for a walk. Enjoy the lunch
[39:56] break, kid. Hope it doesn't last as long as mine did.
[40:28] Right. If it was so obvious, where were you a minute ago?
[40:48] [laughter] >> Gap. I'm in the gap. Gap. Gap. Gap. Gap.
[41:10] Maybe I can just see what's beyond the frame. Over the edge we go. >> Hello again and foolish boy are the same sound.
[41:30] >> Okay, break the light bulb. I can do that.
[41:51] alarm in the oldest house has stopped. Got to go down there. slideshow showed me what to do. And then the cartoon man tricked me into
[42:05] switching places with him and I got stuck inside. out of there. >> Do you realize what you just did, Dylan?
[42:18] You gave your very first mission report. That makes absolutely zero sense. I couldn't be prouder. Well, seems like the situation is handled, so I'm happy. Good work. Ah,
[42:31] Ah, love it. Love it. What a fun mission. That was That was a really good one. I like that one.
[42:48] That was a really good one. Uh, let's go.
[43:26] It's at the park. Ah, there it is. Great.
[43:48] I was told your team needed some help. >> We're supposed to be with Dr. under >> Gone? >> Yep. We were out at our research site, a
[44:00] routine job. Except she just walked off. Don't ask me why. I've been watching her back for almost 7 years now. She's not going to waste her time explaining herself to old Buskin. And she's not answering comms.
[44:19] >> Welcome to my world. Underh Hill's a character, you could say. All part of her charm. She's in charge, so technically she can do what charge, so technically she can do what she likes. Sneaking off like that.
[44:33] I have a bad feeling she doesn't want to be found. The research says, "Don't eat >> just a little bit. >> Maybe you could do some good oldfashioned detective work. Find out where she went.
[44:45] where she went. Also, Underh Hill's usually well, Underh Hill, stubborn, determined, but lately she's been
[45:01] detached, >> moldy. mold? >> No way. She'd be the last person to do >> No way. She'd be the last person to do that.
[45:16] But she has spent literally years elbows deep in it. With everything happening, I [ __ ] I guess I can't say for sure there
[45:31] wasn't an accidental exposure. Even she could slip up. Just see what you find. Underh Hill is a pain in my ass, but I
[45:45] well I'm supposed to look out for her, you know. you know. I feel like I let her down.
