Hey, everybody, it's Tuesday, August 8th, 2020.

23 welcome to the giant bomb cast powered by NZXT episode 800 and one, I'm your host, Jan Ochoa, joining me co-captain of the ship, Jeff grub.

Um, I'm foot loose and fancy free over here. No problems whatsoever. That's right. That's right. And we got him playing bass. He's jamming on the pedals. I don't know if that's what bass players actually do. No, I know they do that.

Do bass players have pedals Jeff back or yeah, yeah, you could absolutely have pedals if you're a bass player like 100%. I don't know if you're I guess you could be jamming on the pedals. Okay, I take it back. You're right. Okay. All right. And speaking about being based. We have to more who say hello, everyone.

Jan, we are decent, dangerously close to episode 808. And I think we should do an all-relationship podcast so that we can call it 808 and heart breaks.

Yeah. Okay. All right. Yeah. I'll wear my Kanye inspired P.W. suit.

Because no one can look me in the eyes and tell me that Kanye West, when he was making 808 and heartbreak thought like, yeah, I'm good. I'm just going to know P.W. Herman. That's, that's who I want to. That's what I want to be for this. R.I.P. R.I.P.

Oh man. I was upset. I was upset. During the mic checks, I had, I had a problem that I wanted to discuss. And you know, what better venue to talk about my personal problems than on on a podcast that gets listened to by.

Uh-huh. At least half a dozen folks. Hello, half a dozen folks. Hi, how you doing? You look great today. Stretch, stretch. That's right. Bend over. There you go. Good, good, good, good, good, good.

How do I get my partner to stop buying a commemorative slash decorative popcorn buckets?

Well, let's look and see my personal history with you and try to recognize how you maybe have enabled her. Oh, no, I'm the problem.

Like, I've seen you do this multiple times now, Jan. We've only hung out a handful of times in real life. And I've seen you get popcorn buckets at least twice. And I think maybe three times.

I mean, you're just, you're just buying pop like fancy, like, like popcorn. Okay, you start from the beginning. Okay. Okay. So this, this originally started as like a Disney thing, right? Because Disney adults ruined everything.

Someone hold the door shut before Mike comes in. Um, where Disney adults would just want to collect everything, right? And then they start collecting popcorn buckets. And then capitalism really popped off today.

And then Disney was like, we're going to exploit all these people like we already are and sell more popcorn buckets. And then folks would, you would just be lining up for these popcorn buckets.

And then this carried over to universal studios. And then they started releasing commemorative popcorn buckets. And then this also, there's a background popcorn war going on with AMC and other movie chains, where AMC is like, well, we got the good shit when it comes to.

Yeah, popcorns are turf. Exactly. And then they were like, yo, you like Thor. Well, here's Mjolnir with hella popcorn in it. Oh, yeah, I remember that. Yeah. Are they like aluminum? Are they like, are they plastic aluminum?

PVC piping. It's weird. Oh, that's a hard plastic. Okay. And then, you know, uh, I, I visit the, the regal theaters near me, because it's the closest theater. And then my partner was like, holy smokes, they got a teenage mutant in tutorials mutant mayhem one.

Let's go get it. And I was like, no, we're not, we're not going to get this. We don't, we don't need this. Yes, grow.

Okay. So you guys collect these things. That's one side of like gathering up these items that are cool. And you like and spark joy. That is one thing.

How, what happens next, Jan? Is there a display of some sort? Or I listen, I'm not to put you on blast. You're podcasting from your kitchen. What's the room situation like?

When I was two, he's showing these things off. I have, I have acquired three sea stands. And I was like, oh, cool. I'm going to do fancy like grip stuff with these sea serons.
