Grumpy old geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schultmeister and Jason

0:06.8

DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame.

0:11.4

Welcome back to Grumpy old geeks for 2018. I am Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister.

0:21.7

Welcome back Brian. How are you today? I'm mostly thought from the minus 30 degree

0:27.6

Wil Winchill that I just left the other day. Boo hoo hoo. You get to go home. Some of us are stuck with it.

0:35.4

Well, you know, if you've listened to the show long enough, you know, Jason's never really stuck anywhere.

0:40.4

He could be back in LA next week for all we know. I have a lease. I am not going anywhere.

0:44.8

I cannot afford to break that lease. Henceforth, I am stuck in the wild tundra of Chicago.

0:50.6

Right. You'll be used to it if you ever, you know, come clean on that promise to move to Toronto,

0:56.2

which you've been threatening for a long time. But you have yet to follow through on every time I go back for one of these winters,

1:02.2

it gets pushed back a few more years. See, that's the thing. You're just going at the wrong time. You need to go in the, you know,

Like this is great. And then, you know, two and a half minutes later, you can't fill your face because you realize it's still only 10 degrees outside,

1:40.6

but that 25 degree jump from the day before 35 degree is just like, wow, this is like amazing. Yes, it is.

1:49.8

So a little follow up from our big bet on Twitter stock last year. Yes. I won. Where's my six pack? You did win.

1:57.0

So I figure since Twitter is the social network of the alt right, I'm going to get you a Papa John's pizza and some Budweiser, the beer of the alt right.

2:04.2

Thanks. Well, I don't know if you noticed the CEO of Papa John's has been required to step down. Thank God. Yes.

2:11.0

Horrible human being. He's gone. But yeah, you can take your button to shove it where the sun don't shine. I will take a, I'll take a nice beer.

2:18.3
