[0.00 --> 8.70] and we're live it's gonna be a oh boy it's gonna be a short WAN show today you know what I was |
[8.70 --> 17.42] doing today no I was installing a soundbar that took you all day well I was installing a soundbar |
[17.42 --> 23.80] with Alex oh and have you ever tried to achieve something with Alex actually I don't think so |
[23.80 --> 30.66] it usually involves a drill okay okay that makes sense I could see that so did you guys go like |
[30.66 --> 36.36] way over and above actually no no the soundbar was not not crazy janky or anything like that the more |
[36.36 --> 41.66] fun thing that we did is I don't know if when you rolled into the office today you noticed that |
[41.66 --> 49.68] the super civic kind of moved I heard you yesterday um okay it was loud yeah so the float plane team had |
[49.68 --> 56.32] a little viewing session through the window yeah so we were working yesterday on what I think may be |
[56.32 --> 65.74] the greatest video that Linus Media Group really has ever created wow so basically what happened was um |
[65.74 --> 73.10] a particular projector brand yeah reached out um wanting us to do a sponsored video on a projector |
[73.10 --> 81.58] okay and the writing team having learned our lesson from the uh the fiasco that was the how nerds |
[81.58 --> 88.74] watch sports ball video really put their heads together to try to come up with a concept that |
[88.74 --> 96.28] wouldn't get us completely as the kids say wrecked in the youtube comments okay and we came up with this |
[96.28 --> 106.10] one won't look we came up with the idea because here's the thing about projectors yeah projectors |
[106.10 --> 113.18] are really good at one thing a big picture in a dark room I thought you're gonna say projecting light |
[113.18 --> 122.96] but okay yeah projecting a big light picture in a dark room yeah and they are super mediocre at best |
[122.96 --> 131.54] at everything else yeah and so when you're trying to come up with a unique spin on a projector |
[131.54 --> 136.08] it's like coming up with you know I was about to say it's like coming up with a unique spin on socks |
[136.08 --> 141.00] but actually coming up with a unique spin on socks is pretty easy you can put them on your feet you can |
[141.00 --> 145.88] put them on your hands and go like this you can wear sandals on top of them like there's all kinds |
[145.88 --> 149.92] of different ways legitimately use them as gloves if you really need lots of different ways to enjoy socks |
[149.92 --> 156.72] yeah projector best enjoyed from the couch with popcorn in a dark room with a projector screen |
[156.72 --> 161.12] and we've had it like disproportionately high amount of like brands that make projectors |
[161.12 --> 163.14] approach us about making unique content |
[163.14 --> 170.76] so you pretty much name it we've kind of done it and yeah we only really like to review projectors |
[170.76 --> 175.82] like a when it's not sponsored because we don't like to cross our streams there as the as the kids |
[175.82 --> 182.14] say you never cross streams yeah um but we don't we don't really like to review them when there isn't |
[182.14 --> 190.10] something really different technologically about them so when I see a 4k 120 hertz projector that has |
[190.10 --> 198.30] like some kind of like superhuman dlp wheel that spins faster than any dlp wheel ever spun before um then |
[198.30 --> 203.62] then that'll probably merit a review okay just like what we did with uh dell has a really unique |
[203.62 --> 211.14] projector it's a 4k laser projector that's a super short throw so you put it like 12 18 inches from |
[211.14 --> 216.04] the wall and you've got this gigantic really sharp image because it's laser and stuff cool yeah sort of |
[216.04 --> 220.84] it's like hybrid laser there's a dlp wheel involved if I recall correctly anyway the point is it was |
[220.84 --> 228.06] really different so we did a review of that um so the one that we were working on for this it was it was |
[228.06 --> 233.98] different in the sense that it's higher brightness compared to most projectors of this type which is |
[233.98 --> 238.06] great because higher brightness means you don't have to have quite such a dark room in order to have |
[238.06 --> 244.66] a good viewing experience but it wasn't like fundamentally different technologically so we |
[244.66 --> 250.38] weren't going to be doing a review of it and so we were like we were like okay you know so far we've |
[250.38 --> 257.40] upgraded our boardroom we've installed a projector in my children's bed like that was that was pretty out |
[257.40 --> 262.28] there which actually they love by the way I took it down recently because we changed the layout of |
[262.28 --> 269.12] their room but they actually love having that up there it's pretty cool um and we thought you know |
[269.12 --> 275.42] what we haven't really seen a lot of in the last you know couple decades drive-in theaters |
[275.42 --> 285.44] the drive-in theater is kind of you know like a lost you know art form I know of one yeah so only one |
[285.44 --> 295.76] then we thought what if we took the drive-in theater concept on the road that's why it's okay okay |
[295.76 --> 304.38] so you guys are gonna have to watch the video but let me put it this way we organized a meetup |
[304.38 --> 313.32] for like like an experience a viewing experience party of the portable drive-in theater machine |
[313.32 --> 319.20] and four people showed up I was gonna ask how many people showed up |
[319.20 --> 326.30] five if you count the guy who owns the field oh my goodness and uh what did you guys play can I ask |
[326.30 --> 332.36] hilarity hilarity ensued we ended up playing rocket league um rick asked we's never gonna give you up |
[332.36 --> 339.40] okay and um some of some of uh brandon's beautiful footage from oh okay yeah yeah yeah |
[339.40 --> 344.84] honestly rocket league on a mobile setup off the front of a car actually sounds super cool |
[344.84 --> 349.14] so you're playing with controllers anyway so you kind of sit wherever and I will tell you this |
[349.14 --> 353.42] it was cold last night and I was very happy to have a warm hood to sit on |
[353.42 --> 359.68] so I'm sitting there in the middle of a field right it's so premium sitting there in the middle of a |
[359.68 --> 365.06] field with a controller with this gigantic like it's a 200 inch screen or something 17 feet whatever |
